[12:00] <tonyyarusso> cwillu: I don't see anything in there.
[12:00] <debugger> where can I get the  oprofile-modules0.9 package that is listed at http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/devel/oprofile-common/ ?
[12:00] <tonyyarusso> cwillu: Bah, didn't read first.
[12:01] <cwillu> tonyyarusso:  do a man sudoers
[12:01] <tonyyarusso> cwillu: So how would one go about adding that then?

[12:02] <CaptainMorgan> !ubotu hdd
[12:02] <ubotu> CaptainMorgan: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:02] <SpComb> CaptainMorgan: formated it?
[12:02] <SpComb> you need a valid fs to mount....
[12:02] <CaptainMorgan> SpComb, no!... ah.. fs...
[12:02] <CaptainMorgan> hmm
[12:02] <SpComb> heh
[12:02] <CaptainMorgan> got stuff I need to restore..
[12:02] <SpComb> mount works on filesystems ;)

[12:03] <SpComb> not on physical disks
[12:03] <SpComb> well, you need a partition on it
[12:03] <CaptainMorgan> so i can't access it through Linux?
[12:03] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell nuke about msg the bot
[12:03] <SpComb> depends, NTFS?
[12:03] <CaptainMorgan> got one on there..
[12:03] <Kurt> why do Democrats hate Jews?
[12:03] <CaptainMorgan> I believe it may have been NTFS
[12:03] <CaptainMorgan> yes
[12:03] <cwillu> kurt, that's a good way to get kicked
[12:03] <gnomefreak> Kurt: go to a different channel with that topic
[12:03] <SpComb> CaptainMorgan: then it should really work...
[12:03] <Kurt> gnomefreak: all I want is an answer
[12:03] <CaptainMorgan> but I was stupid three years ago... so it may be fat adn it was a win sys
[12:04] <SpComb> hmm, what ide bus master/slave?
[12:04] <nuke> gnomefreak i will pm ubotu next time :)
[12:04] <gnomefreak> cwillu: he has been banned the other day for same topic
[12:04] <jjs01h> oh. i see. the 1600x1200 vs 1920x1280 limitation is with xorg... this page suggests applying a patch and recompiling it. sounds like a pain :\
[12:04] <cwillu> lol
[12:04] <cwillu> thought he seemed familiar :)
[12:04] <SpComb> CaptainMorgan: what IDE bus do you have it on? Master or slave?
[12:04] <gnomefreak> Kurt: not here now please go to another channel with that question
[12:04] <djm62> what an idiot
[12:04] <mel_> hello
[12:04] <CaptainMorgan> should be master
[12:04] <Celestianpower> Okay, done
[12:04] <cwillu> I'm pretty sure he's the reason I knew it was a kickable offense :)
[12:04] <SpComb> primary or secondary?
[12:04] <gnomefreak> he was banned from offtopic and here same day
[12:04] <tim_> i am trying to setup sofware raid 0 on a few drives, is there any utilities other than mdadm that might be a little easier to use
[12:04] <CaptainMorgan> primary SpComb
[12:05] <Kurt> gnomefreak: an answer is all I request
[12:05] <CaptainMorgan> yes
[12:05] <jjs01h> is there a package i can apt-get that will provide support of this intel 915 graphics card? its currently set up as an 815, etc
[12:05] <Celestianpower> Reset the router and rebooted
[12:05] <SpComb> CaptainMorgan: try fdisk -l /dev/hda
[12:05] <gnomefreak> !ops
[12:05] <ubotu> Help! lilo, fabbione, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob or Hobbsee
[12:05] <jcuk> :'(, Ubuntu, installed fine, started x (fine) log in, mouse loads, brown background... nothing else loads up?
[12:05] <SpComb> it'll list the partitions
[12:05] <nickrud> Kurt, go away, please
[12:05] <nalioth> gnomefreak: yes?
[12:05] <rob> ?
[12:05] <gnomefreak> kurt is at it again
[12:05] <cafuego> naliorth: kurt would like a ban
[12:05] <risitas28> hi  all
[12:05] <gnomefreak> with the democrat and jew thing
[12:05] <cwillu> lol
[12:05] <Celestianpower> SpComb and gnomefreak: I reset the router and rebooted
[12:05] <CaptainMorgan> SpComb, fdisk -l /dev/hda lists nothing..
[12:05] <cwillu> I like the reason :)
[12:05] <SpComb> huh?
[12:06] <nalioth> i aim to please
[12:06] <cafuego> and everyone knows it's because of the gelatine anyway
[12:06] <CaptainMorgan> i need to find correct syntax.. one sec
[12:06] <gnomefreak> thanks :)
[12:06] <ruzgar> i want to instaal another linux system to my harddisk but my harddisk is one parttion how can i divide my harddisk without damaging my old linux system
[12:06] <SpComb> ugh... is it a IDE disk?
[12:06] <SpComb> it's not in the normal users path either
[12:06] <CaptainMorgan> i think it was like hda1 sda0
[12:06] <SpComb> oh
[12:06] <SpComb> dunno the device
[12:06] <CaptainMorgan> lemme check
[12:06] <HymnToLife> ruzgar> you can't
[12:06] <SpComb> fdisk -l will show you the partitions, so you can identify them
[12:06] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: is it all good?
[12:06] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Is what all good?
[12:06] <Celestianpower> Synaptic still doesn't work
[12:06] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: is it working now
[12:06] <gnomefreak> :(
[12:07] <cwillu> so, what do you suppose the odds are that 'set completion-ignore-case on' would be included in the default bashrc for ubuntu?
[12:07] <SpComb> looking up names
[12:07] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Yes :(
[12:07] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: same error?
[12:07] <Steve^> Is there actually a way to get wmv files running in a web browser (Opera or even just Firefox) within Ubuntu? Or should I stop looking?
[12:07] <ruzgar> HymnToLife must i format whole harddisk ?
[12:07] <HymnToLife> ruzgar> if you have only one partition yes
[12:07] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Yuhuh
[12:07] <SpComb> ruzgar: etx2/3 should be resizeable
[12:07] <tim_> are there any software raid programs other than mdadm?
[12:07] <HymnToLife> dn't forget to create more than one next time ;)
[12:07] <meushi> I have a big issue with Breezy, my ethernet card is not receiving any frame with 2.6.12-9... if I try dhcp, it sends ok, DHCP answers, the breezy box doesn't receive (or drops)... it is a VT6102 rel 78, which should work (with low perfs)
[12:07] <jcuk> Can anyone help me?, I installed Ubuntu linux from cd, (i386), Setup to run 1280x1024, gnome starts, login screen appears. I login with my username and password, login screen disapears im leftwith brown background and my mouse (which moves fine). But nothing else
[12:07] <kwame> My situation is this, in xorg.conf it tells me that it should be using 1400x1050, but i'm only getting 1024x768
[12:07] <nickrud> Steve^, install totem-xine & the w32codecs, works for most people
[12:07] <CaptainMorgan> SpComb, yes.. sda - got the partitions but the external hdd is not being read
[12:08] <ruzgar> SpComb how can i resize
[12:08] <ardchoille> ddonky: Thanks again :)  Samba works great and she is now happy :)
[12:08] <SpComb> ruzgar: not the faintest clue. gparted?
[12:08] <HymnToLife> SpComb> rally ? how ?
[12:08] <Steve^> nickrud, are the w32codecs in synaptic?
[12:08] <SpComb> not sure which tool it is that does it
[12:08] <nickrud> !w32codecs
[12:08] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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
[12:08] <HymnToLife> gparted doesn't work for this
[12:08] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: So I'm doomed to a life of no Synaptic?
[12:08] <SpComb> but it's possible... I've been told
[12:08] <Urthmover> automatix seems to be helpful too
[12:08] <Celestianpower> :'(
[12:08] <nickrud> Steve^, see ubotu above
[12:08] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: no updates no nothing
[12:08] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  whats the problems?
[12:08] <Seveas> Urthmover, automatix is a virus
[12:08] <HymnToLife> SpComb> I've learn not to believe everything I'm told
[12:08] <Urthmover> whoops
[12:08] <gnomefreak> Urthmover: please dont use it
[12:08] <SpComb> Celestianpower: ugh, if it's giving IO errors I haven't a clue
[12:08] <Urthmover> lol
[12:09] <SpComb> HymnToLife: from someone I would believe
[12:09] <Seveas> !tell Urthmover about automatix
[12:09] <nickrud> !automatix
[12:09] <ubotu> [automatix]  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.
[12:09] <Urthmover> ok so lets say that I've seen it executed sometime before
[12:09] <jjs01h> ruzgar: i resized my ntfs partition from within the install itself. i chose manually partition. then i changed the size field and applied the changes. no damage
[12:09] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Urthmover about easyubuntu
[12:09] <nickrud> darn, late again
[12:09] <gnomefreak> :)
[12:09] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Wonderful :'(
[12:09] <ardchoille> easyubuntu is much better
[12:09] <Seveas> easyubuntu is not much better
[12:09] <Seveas> a little
[12:09] <Seveas> good enough to not be considered a virus
[12:09] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: i think you need Seveas on your case lol
[12:10] <ruzgar> jjs01h you resized which program ?
[12:10] <mumbles> dammit thought u where talking about me NickGarvey
[12:10] <mumbles> erm NickGarvey
[12:10] <mumbles> nickrud
[12:10] <DoTheRodeo> how do you unrar .rar?
[12:10] <jjs01h> ruzgar: i used partman.. its the program used by the installer
[12:10] <Celestianpower> Seveas: Can I have you on my case?
[12:10] <SpComb> HymnToLife: in fact, quite a few people have told me about it
[12:10] <jcuk> Are there any known problems with ubuntu linux and Uli M1689 chipset?
[12:10] <cwillu> it's either saying something about easyubuntu or ubuntu that there's a package called 'easyubuntu'
[12:10] <DoTheRodeo> or you have to download rar to unrar this?
[12:10] <nickrud> mumbles, I'll find another means :)
[12:10] <cwillu> and I think it's saying more about easy than ubuntu
[12:10] <Urthmover> ok so I guess I'm gonna rebuild
[12:10] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: if you go back into /etc/resolv.conf is what you put in there still there?
[12:10] <Urthmover> sheesh
[12:10] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Yes
[12:10] <NickGarvey> mumbles: wait what?
[12:10] <CaptainMorgan> what would an extern hdd read in through usb be located under? it's not listed under either hda or sda..
[12:11] <gnomefreak> hmmmmmm
[12:11] <Urthmover> what does the automatix do?
[12:11] <Seveas> cwillu, the easyubuntu package is not from Ubuntu
[12:11] <Urthmover> virus-wise
[12:11] <NickGarvey> mumbles: need something?
[12:11] <Seveas> Urthmover, mainly f*ck up your system
[12:11] <cwillu> seveas, that's the point :p
[12:11] <ruzgar> Celestianpower is that the ubuntu's installer ?
[12:11] <g3nocide> wow, is there any chance someone can help me wit hthis. after reconfiguring x using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg like 10 times, xwindows starting up still gives me a blank monitor with blinking power led. can anyone gimme a hand with this (and yes, i went through the howto someone pasted earlier as well)
[12:11] <Celestianpower> ruzgar: No, synaptic
[12:11] <Urthmover> who;s ....moia?    no way...I'm talkiing on here for a friend ;-)
[12:11] <jjs01h> ruzgar: first i resized it. ten i aborted the installation and booted back into windows to make sure it was all right. then i installed in the empty space i created
[12:11] <gnomefreak> it easier to install those items by hand than using either of the packages (scripts)
[12:11] <SpComb> HymnToLife: http://ext2resize.sourceforge.net/ ? Might be old, but it's possible
[12:11] <ardchoille> Urthmover: autoamtix doesn't do anything that you can't do yourself. It's always best to learn to do things yourself because you learn the system that way.
[12:11] <nalioth> Urthmover: do your friend a favor and don't use automatix
[12:11] <NegativeSpace> How can I found out where an application is installed?
[12:12] <cwillu> g3nocide:  you're in the world of /etc/X11/xorg.conf;
[12:12] <Celestianpower> Seveas: So can you? ;)
[12:12] <jcuk> Does Xorg have agpgart support for the ULi M1689 Chipset?
[12:12] <Urthmover> ok   I'll tell him that ;-)
[12:12] <HymnToLife> SpComb> ok didn't know about that
[12:12] <DoTheRodeo> how do you unrar .rar?
[12:12] <DoTheRodeo> or you have to download rar to unrar this?
[12:12] <Urthmover> anything else....maybe RTFM?
[12:12] <Urthmover> I can tell him that too
[12:12] <Urthmover> :-)
[12:12] <Seveas> Celestianpower, didn't see your problem
[12:12] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  just start reexplaining whats going on
[12:12] <gnomefreak> dns issues
[12:12] <Celestianpower> Okay
[12:12] <g3nocide> cwillu: and? I've used xorg loads of time before, i used to run slackware, and i never had this kind of problem with it.
[12:12] <djm62> NegativeSpace: it is distributed across the disk.  to find where a program is use "which programname" (i.e. "which firefox")
[12:12] <Celestianpower> Right
[12:12] <Seveas> check dhcp
[12:12] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, dpkg -L <packagename> ; usefull appends: | grep bin | grep etc
[12:12] <nalioth> Urthmover: the wiki.ubuntu.com has loads of good info on how to pimp your ubuntu
[12:13] <NegativeSpace> Thanks guys.
[12:13] <Urthmover> thanks bud
[12:13] <Celestianpower> Synaptic doesn't work - it comes up with various errors and apt-get update just times out
[12:13] <Urthmover> I'll check it out
[12:13] <jcuk> jus gimme a shout when someones available to help lol
[12:13] <gnomefreak> jcuk: what is the issue?
[12:13] <cwillu> so have you started playing around with the conf file?  if I had to guess (which I do), I'd guess that ubuntu's detected the monitor supporting a higher res than it actually does;  does it work if you force it to only 800x600x16?
[12:13] <Celestianpower> Synaptic never worked
[12:13] <SpComb> CaptainMorgan: http://librenix.com/?inode=4523 possibly?
[12:13] <SpComb> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=linux+external+USB+HD+howto&btnG=Search
[12:13] <g3nocide> cwillu: i'll try it
[12:13] <SpComb> dunno
[12:13] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  can you browse on that machine?
[12:14] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Yees - I'm talking to you now on it
[12:14] <Urthmover> so is getting a recent ISO and doing a install from LiveCD the fastest way?  or can I do it over ftp somehow?
[12:14] <ubuntux>  I would like to know where GNOME stores its configuration files
[12:14] <Celestianpower> And Firefox works
[12:14] <cwillu> got a paste of your sources.list?
[12:14] <mumbles> one of these days im going to need help on getting my intrgated intel wirelss card working with lidbwrapper
[12:14] <Seveas> ubuntux, ~/.gnome2 ~/.gconf
[12:14] <nickrud> Celestianpower, put your /etc/apt/sources.list in paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:14] <jcuk> gnomefreak: I just finished installing ubuntu (32-bit), i login with my username and pwd, it logs in then goes to a brown background and mouse (res 1280x1024) nvidia 6800 card
[12:14] <nalioth> Urthmover: the latest stable breezy install cd would probably be quickest
[12:14] <jcuk> gnomefreak : nothing happens after this
[12:14] <Urthmover> yeah I'll do that then
[12:14] <Urthmover> thanks
[12:15] <gnomefreak> jcuk: what were you looking for to happen?
[12:15] <kwame> How do I install a .deb package?
[12:15] <SpComb> these distro channels are so active they are hard to follow :/
[12:15] <mumbles> jcuk - you installed the nvida drivers ?
[12:15] <Celestianpower> cwillu and nickrud: It's there already
[12:15] <Celestianpower> Ummm
[12:15] <gnomefreak> kwame: sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[12:15] <jcuk> gnomefreak : expected gnome to load up
[12:15] <HymnToLife> !tell kwame about deb
[12:15] <cwillu> SpComb:   I routinely curse the lack of threading :)
[12:15] <nalioth> ubotu: tell kwame about deb
[12:15] <nickrud> Celestianpower, I missed it
[12:15] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  whats the link?
[12:15] <LuisBG> I'm missing the nvidia-glx package in my apt-cache, where is it?
[12:15] <gnomefreak> nickrud:  its under my name today
[12:15] <nickrud> cwillu, threading!
[12:15] <gnomefreak> i gave him my breezy list
[12:15] <jcuk> mumbles : i havent had a chance yet, arent the nv drivers already integrated in ubuntu?
[12:15] <gnomefreak> well some of it
[12:15] <DoTheRodeo> how do you unrar .rar?
[12:15] <DoTheRodeo> or you have to download rar to unrar this?
[12:16] <cwillu> nickrud:  i.e., "show me everything this guy said in the last 30 minutes"
[12:16] <Celestianpower> cwillu and nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9978
[12:16] <mumbles> jcuk dunno but it sounds like your having the same provblems that i had
[12:16] <cwillu> "and follow everything he continues to say"
[12:16] <gnomefreak> jcuk: on the brown screen do you see icons or words along the top?
[12:16] <nalioth> DoTheRodeo: use apt-get to install unrar-nonfree
[12:16] <nickrud> cwillu, I'm too lazy to grep the logs, and thanks Celestianpower
[12:16] <ddonky> ardchoille - that's all that matters, SHE is happy. :)
[12:16] <jcuk> gnomefreak : nothing, just brown and a mouse
[12:16] <CaptainMorgan> SpComb, thankis.. it's weird because nautilus says it there's and won't mount.. yet fdisk doesn't list it
[12:16] <CaptainMorgan> ..
[12:16] <paeppi> SpComb: Yeah, it takes me so long to read everything that I forgot all about my question that I wanted to state here :D
[12:16] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  from a terminal, can you ping archive.ubuntu.com?
[12:16] <gnomefreak> jcuk: did you just install it today?
[12:16] <jcuk> gnomefreak : less than 15mins ago
[12:17] <gnomefreak> jcuk: what version?>
[12:17] <g3nocide> cwillu: i tried to force it to 800x600, and it still wont fire x properly (as in display it). any chance someone else here also has a SyncMaster 750s and would paste their horiz sync and vertical refresh rates from their xorg.conf ???
[12:17] <mnemnonic> @DoTheRodeo: You should download rar
[12:17] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Yes
[12:17] <jcuk> gnomefreak : latest, just downloaded it
[12:17] <nickrud> Celestianpower, those look just fine, how about pasting an an error from apt-get
[12:17] <elad`> I have imwheel installed and working, but I want two of my buttons to do different things than they do by default (backspace and enter/return instead of back and forward). Help?
[12:17] <jcuk> hold on
[12:17] <gnomefreak> latest is what version
[12:17] <cwillu> g3nocide:  I've got a 550s :/
[12:17] <jcuk> 5.10
[12:17] <gnomefreak> ok good
[12:17] <SpComb> CaptainMorgan: what does fdisk say?
[12:17] <g3nocide> cwillu: lol
[12:17] <g3nocide> close but no cigar
[12:17] <lsuactiafner>  g3nocide : look on the back of your monitor/screen
[12:18] <cwillu> can you browse the url in firefox?
[12:18] <lsuactiafner> g3nocide : refresh rates should be written there
[12:18] <ardchoille> ddonky: indeed
[12:18] <g3nocide> lsuactiafner: i did, nothing there
[12:18] <CaptainMorgan> SpComb, fdisk only lists internal drives
[12:18] <nickrud> dang, this channel is moving like last year :)
[12:18] <jcuk> gnomefreak : had the exact same problem when trying to run x server after installing fedora core 4
[12:18] <gnomefreak> jcuk: hit ctrl+alt+f2 and sign in and type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop  if that doesnt work let us know
[12:18] <CaptainMorgan> not exteranl
[12:18] <Celestianpower> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9980
[12:18] <gnomefreak> jcuk: wait dont do that
[12:18] <jcuk> gnomefreak : doesent work anyway
[12:18] <nickrud> Celestianpower, do sudo apt-get update, try again
[12:18] <CaptainMorgan> SpComb, err.. lists partitions already on and doesn't list the external
[12:18] <linx> hey, is this right command for mounting smb shares?? mount -t smbfs //servername/sharename /mountdirectory -o username=mywindowsusername,password=mywindowspassword
[12:18] <gnomefreak> jcuk: have you tried to configure xserver yet?
[12:18] <jcuk> gnomefreak : cant get access to a shell
[12:19] <SpComb> CaptainMorgan: ugh, not a clue anymore
[12:19] <nickrud> Celestianpower, sorry, I'll read deeper
[12:19] <gnomefreak> jcuk: ctrl+alt+f2
[12:19] <jcuk> gnomefreak : nothing happens.
[12:19] <Celestianpower> nickrud: That's what I did - that's the result
[12:19] <SpComb> I would have thought that a hard drive was a hard drive...
[12:19] <gnomefreak> jcuk: thats bad
[12:19] <ddonky> linx - looks ok, but i use -t cifs
[12:19] <nickrud> Celestianpower, your resolving sucks Could not connect to archive.ubuntu.com:80 (1.0.0.0)
[12:19] <linx> ddonky, instead of?
[12:19] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Yes, it browses in FF
[12:19] <jcuk> gnomefreak : Its something to with xorg and agpgart support for my chipset
[12:19] <cwillu> heh
[12:19] <cwillu> he's right
[12:20] <ddonky> linx - t smbfs
[12:20] <linx> ah i see
[12:20] <linx> thx
[12:20] <CaptainMorgan> np, thanks anyways SpComb .. i think I may have to use win to get it to work.. I remember getting a restoration software in which I was once able to view the contents of the disk but at the point I was still unable to do anything with.. like it was malfunctioning..
[12:20] <cwillu> that's an interesting ip address :)
[12:20] <jcuk> gnomefreak : also it couldent detect my onboard ethernet
[12:20] <gnomefreak> jcuk: but it will still recogonize your card
[12:20] <cwillu> do you have a proxy set?
[12:20] <Celestianpower> cwillu: No idea
[12:20] <gnomefreak> ubuntu and nvidia work very very well together
[12:20] <jcuk> gnomefreak : must do, its running 1280x1024 res
[12:20] <ddonky> linx - also, i usually put the password stuff before the destination dir. that's just the way i learned it though
[12:21] <elad`> xmodmap help anyone?
[12:21] <gnomefreak> jcuk: you cant get a terminal im not sure what to say
[12:21] <jcuk> gnomefreak : so ive heard, since i cant get debian to detect ethernet i cant install it, fedora core 4 wont load x properly (same thing as ubuntu), only thing that seems to work is knoppix live cd
[12:21] <gnomefreak> jcuk: you should still beable to get a tty
[12:22] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Synaptic worked on another person's internet connection if that helps
[12:22] <cwillu> ya, if you can browse you should be fine
[12:22] <g3nocide> ok, i'll try something else. is there any ubuntu howto for installing the 8178 nvidia drivers??? maybe doing that and then doing the nvidia-xconfig will fix my problem
[12:22] <jcuk> gnomefreak : something to do with my usb keyboard?
[12:22] <cwillu> but obviously your not
[12:22] <cwillu> somewhere, apt-get is getting the wrong ip address for that host
[12:23] <nickrud> Celestianpower, do you have an /etc/apt.conf file?
[12:23] <linx> ddonky, ok
[12:23] <linx> CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22
[12:23] <g3nocide> cwillu: any chance there's a resource available (like a howto) for installing the 8178 nvidia drivers ???
[12:23] <ubuntux> how to get php-gtk from apt-get?
[12:23] <anto9us> g3nocide, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[12:23] <Celestianpower> nickrud: No
[12:24] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  I've got an ugly hack, that'd be interesting to see if it worked
[12:24] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Okay
[12:24] <ddonky> linx - try -t smbfs
[12:24] <anto9us> linx, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[12:24] <nickrud> Celestianpower, <delete> watches cwillu
[12:24] <cwillu> replace archive.ubuntu.com with 82.211.81.151
[12:24] <linx> ddonky, i tried that, didnt't work
[12:24] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Where?
[12:24] <cwillu> and security.ubuntu.com with 82.211.81.138
[12:24] <cwillu> in sources.list
[12:24] <linx> anto9us, thx
[12:24] <DoTheRodeo> where source.list located?
[12:24] <cwillu> (back it up first)
[12:25] <cwillu>  /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:25] <DoTheRodeo> ic
[12:25] <nickrud> Celestianpower, save your /etc/apt/sources.list, and put those numbers in
[12:25] <gnomefreak> DoTheRodeo: /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:25] <SpComb> the hosts file!
[12:25] <SpComb> /etc/host :P
[12:25] <SpComb> +s
[12:25] <jjs01h> what repos do i need to upgrade to dapper? how can i get the bot to tell me?
[12:25] <nickrud> cwillu, sorry, I'm kinda excited, never tried that :)
[12:25] <jcuk> gnomefreak : got a shell now, done it at the graphical login screen
[12:25] <cwillu> :)
[12:25] <nickrud> !dapper
[12:25] <ubotu> The pre-release name for next release of Ubuntu, actual name 6.04. Due 20th April. It is Development Software as such it _May_Break_! > /join #ubuntu+1 < Channel for IRC - Use http://tinyurl.com/rtgxo easy update
[12:25] <cwillu> might screw with the gpg, I'm not sure
[12:26] <nickrud> jjs01h, see ubotu just above
[12:26] <cwillu> but it'd be interesting to see if it gets that far at least
[12:26] <linx> anto9us, thx that manual was needed!
[12:26] <cwillu> irc:  the dns of the future :)
[12:26] <linx> ;)
[12:26] <jjs01h> nickrud: thanks
[12:26] <anto9us> linx, yes, it's a good one :)
[12:26] <linx> its a bookmark!
[12:26] <rixth> What are Dell laptops like with Ubuntu? Generally good or bad?
[12:26] <Goldfisch> I did some reading up on apt-zip. It looks except for one thing. It doesn't handle the apt-get update step. It appears you have to "go online" to update your private cache database of apt packages before you can build the script. How do you handle that from a closed network?
[12:27] <jjs01h> rixth: i just bought an inspiron 6000. using it right now. everything is working
[12:27] <rixth> jjs01h, thats the exact one I am looking at.
[12:27] <Urthmover> I bet latitudes run fine
[12:27] <jjs01h> rixth: just  make sure you get the intel wifi card, etc. nothing proprietary / dell
[12:27] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Okay, done
[12:27] <cwillu> k
[12:27] <jjs01h> rixth: although the bluetooth works too
[12:27] <cwillu> sudo apt-get update
[12:27] <Goldfisch> rixth: I restored an Insprion 7500 (5 years old) with new disk drives and RAM and Ubuntu. Works like a charm.
[12:27] <anto9us> rixth, I had a successful install of hoary on an inspiron 9100
[12:27] <jcuk> er one more thing, ubuntu didnt ask me to specify a root password on install, is there a default or something?
[12:28] <rixth> jcuk, Ubuntu does not have a root password
[12:28] <nickrud> Goldfisch, I'm not sure, but copying /var/lib/apt/lists to a mirror of a production machine?
[12:28] <rixth> !tell jcuk about su
[12:28] <ompaul> !root
[12:28] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[12:28] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Oooh - ugly!
[12:28] <Celestianpower> I'll pastebin
[12:28] <cwillu> sweet
[12:28] <ompaul> rixth, okay
[12:28] <cwillu> different is good :)
[12:28] <Goldfisch> nickrud: I was hoping it was something like that. I was scanning the APT howto, and it didn't seem to talk to that level.
[12:29] <Celestianpower> cwillu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9981
[12:29] <nickrud> Goldfisch, that's where the lists of available packages are kept after an apt-get update
[12:29] <g3nocide> anto9us: ok, i checked out that link, thng is, i dont have a working xwindows session, so how else can i 'unrestrict' the nvidia drivers without xwindows ???
[12:29] <cwillu> okay
[12:29] <mumbles> can anyone point me in the right directions for the ubntu libwrapper stuff ?
[12:29] <cwillu> 404's are good
[12:29] <cwillu> probably using vhosts
[12:29] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Oh good
[12:29] <LuisBG> how do I update the kernel in ubuntu? tried yesterday and gave a disaster
[12:29] <nickrud> Goldfisch, but, I'm almost sure, you'll run into 'issues'.
[12:30] <ompaul> LuisBG, please define update kernel please
[12:30] <rixth> Hmm. For $200 more than the Inspiron 6000, you ca go dual core. Does ubuntu play nice with dual core?
[12:30] <anto9us> g3nocide, download linux drivers from nvidia website
[12:30] <mumbles> rixth i know it installes onan acer aspire 3610
[12:30] <Celestianpower> cwillu: So I do what now?
[12:30] <elad`> ".*"
[12:30] <elad`>  None, Up, Alt_L|Left
[12:30] <elad`>  None, Down, Alt_L|Right
[12:30] <nickrud> rixth, I've even heard, that using an smp kernel helps on dual core. That's rumor
[12:30] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  can you paste me /etc/resolv.conf
[12:30] <elad`> With this format, how do I signify Enter/Return and Backspace?
[12:30] <cwillu> and the output of 'set'?
[12:31] <rixth> Hmm.
[12:31] <kwame> Ok, almost there
[12:31] <Celestianpower> cwillu: "nameserver 192.168.1.1" - resolve.conf
[12:31] <Goldfisch> nickrud: The only way to this is to test it. My laptop is pretty disposable. I will wipe it, and then install it cleanly with Ubuntu and no network connection. Then I will use my desktop as the Internet machine. Only way to to work this system.
[12:31] <kwame> I think I'm getting 1400x1050 but does not fill the screen
[12:31] <kwame> any idea why?
[12:31] <cwillu> that's it?
[12:31] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Set? Just type set in the command line?
[12:31] <zenbum> FWIW, ubuntu runs great on my dual-Athlon system
[12:31] <cwillu> yes (lower case)
[12:31] <elad`> Can anybody read me?
[12:32] <mumbles> i guess no one wants to play with my idea :p
[12:32] <mumbles> goes to exhast his google skills
[12:32] <gnomefreak> elad`: yes
[12:32] <ddonky> elad - 5 by 5
[12:32] <Celestianpower> cwillu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9982 ,-- set
[12:32] <kristopher> I am having troubles with sudo, when I run it and enter the password, it does not run with root priveleges, what is going on?
[12:32] <Celestianpower> *,--
[12:32] <Celestianpower> *<--
[12:32] <nickrud> Goldfisch, I would be interested in how it goes. (Maybe it'll matter to me before I forget the context :)\
[12:33] <elad`> Well, can't anybody help me? I'm trying to edit .imwheelrc.
[12:33] <vladuz976> what exactly is a content management system like mambo? is it something like wordpress?
[12:34] <ddonky> elad - try asking better questions, just based on what you told me i'd say open a text editor
[12:34] <judgen> Is there any app for linux that is similar to BeOS Spicykeys?
[12:34] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  brb, just going to do a bit of research
[12:34] <nickrud> elad`, I can help with the editing, but not with what goes in it (never used imwheel)
[12:34] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Okay
[12:34] <Goldfisch> nickrud: I can't start this now, because I have be somewhere in half-an-hour. But after that I will start working on it. I can spend this weekend "perfecting it".
[12:34] <ompaul> vladuz976, it is more than that, your heading in the right direction
[12:34] <elad`> ddonky,  With this format, how do I signify Enter/Return and Backspace?
[12:34] <vladuz976> ompaul: like what exactly?
[12:34] <cwillu> Celestianpower:   what does 'host archive.ubuntu.com' give you??
[12:34] <glick> excuse me is there a way to remotely install linux onto a machine?
[12:34] <nickrud> Goldfisch, I nearly always have this channel open, it's amusing. Ping me
[12:35] <jcuk> gnomefreak : what do i do after running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:35] <nickrud> Goldfisch, plus, I get all kinds of tips for later
[12:35] <Goldfisch> nickrud: This is all to support putting a linux server in production. I have sold management on using mediawiki as a knowledge base tool, and I'm convincing them that it best runs on a linux system (where it was developed). I plan to order an x86 rack server as my platform.
[12:35] <jcuk> ive went through it but when i start x it still sits with mouse and unable to get a shell
[12:35] <httpdss> glick: yes ... lots .. first that comes to my mind ... ssh
[12:35] <elad`> I got Return nailed down, but what goes in instead of Backspace?
[12:35] <ompaul> vladuz976, it is a db driven web site, aimed at building training courses
[12:35] <ddonky> elad - what program are you editing with, nano?
[12:35] <ompaul> vladuz976, not content management more course management
[12:36] <glick> httpdss, how will you use ssh to install linux on a blank machine?
[12:36] <tushkee> How come Ubuntu is free of charge? Who pays for the expenses? Everything from Canonical?
[12:36] <kristopher> I am having troubles with sudo, when I run it and enter the password, it does not run with root priveleges, what is going on?
[12:36] <nickrud> Goldfisch, no offence, but <whoosh> over my head. I'm just a lowly single machine user
[12:36] <Goldfisch> nickrud: And then finally (drum roll, please)....ubuntu is my distro of choice.
[12:36] <elad`> ddonky, what does it matter?
[12:36] <Celestianpower> cwillu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9983
[12:36] <nickrud> Goldfisch, you got the drumroll (/usr/share/sound/question.wav :)
[12:37] <mumbles> has anyone got any idea how to get wireless lan working on a laptop running ubntu
[12:37] <elad`> ddonky, I want to know what .imwheelrc should contain for a certain button on my mouse to produce the effect of clicking on "backspace" on the keyboard. I've done it before, so I know it's possible.
[12:37] <httpdss> glick: mmm, ssh the machine and work over a chrooted environment ...
[12:37] <Goldfisch> mumbles: I have installed network-manager.
[12:38] <glick> httpdss, thats assuming the machine hass ssh server
[12:38] <glick> im talking about a *blank* machine
[12:38] <nickrud> kristopher, are you entering your personal password?
[12:38] <ddonky> elad - I don't know
[12:38] <LuisBG> ompaul, just installed breezy in a powerbook and want to update to the latest posible kernel to get the patches of cpu temp, fan speed, and all the goodies, how can I do it?
[12:38] <kristopher> nickrud, I am using my personal password and it fails without error
[12:38] <judgen> Is there a way to convert the signals outputed through xev to do functions
[12:38] <httpdss> glick: there are live dists which have the server installed and active ..
[12:39] <elad`> Another question - how do I make sure the fucking PC Speaker isn't set off by random programs? I want to turn it off completely.
[12:39] <Celestianpower> cwillu: What do you make of it?
[12:39] <blekos> alloha guys
[12:39] <cwillu> Celestianpower:   I think it's an issue between apt and your cablemodem/router
[12:39] <blekos> anybody using dapper drake?
[12:40] <elad`> By the way, turns out the answer to my previous question was "BackSpace" (case sensitive)
[12:40] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Oh - is it fixable?
[12:40] <cwillu> do you have a home router or is it just straight to a cable modem?
[12:40] <gnomefreak> elad`: please watch your language
[12:40] <mnemnonic> @elad: open the case and pull the plug ... I think that's the only way, besides comiling your own kernel
[12:40] <zenbum> blekos: yo
[12:40] <gnomefreak> blekos: #ubuntu+1 is for dapper
[12:40] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Home router
[12:40] <Goldfisch> You know, when I hear people talking dapper drake, it almost feels like a little boy, right before Christmas. "Is it here?? Is it here??"
[12:40] <cwillu> dlink, linksys?

[12:41] <nickrud> kristopher, I've seen others come here with that, I'm not sure what you all
[12:41] <blekos> i just wanted 2 know why dapper drake kernel does not have the usbserial module loaded...
[12:41] <nickrud> 's problem is

[12:42] <Celestianpower> cwillu: yes?
[12:42] <cwillu> elad`:   open the computer up and disconnect it :)
[12:42] <FlannelKing> oh, hah. right.  I knew that.  whew.  Scared me for a second.

[12:43] <Celestianpower> Yeah
[12:43] <cwillu> it should be the router configuration page, right?
[12:43] <gnomefreak> my speakers plug in the back why would you open it?

[12:46] <ubotu> xen is, like, totally, a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. It can be found at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/ .
[12:47] <Goldfisch> Sounds similar to vmware.

[12:47] <ubuntu29> intresete din lids

[12:52] <freeze> oh shit i press ctrl l here and clean the screen
[12:52] <Xappe> freeze: k3b is a very good free alternative, you also have gnomebaker, graveman, nautilus cd-burner and if you really prefer Nero, NeroLINUX (costs money)
[12:52] <freeze> repeat it again
[12:53] <ubuntu29> wonder why the intel mac mini is not handled

[12:59] <Volmarias> Hi, I've installed ubuntu, but the networking isn't working. How do I set up my machine to get its IP via DHCP?
[12:59] <freeze> yes
[12:59] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Oh
[12:59] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  if you can figure out your isp's dns server (which the router knows but doesn't want to tell you)
[12:59] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  you can add it to the resolv.conf file, and things will probably start working right
[12:59] <ailsa_> sussed it ! if leaving the mouse on the tablet stops he screensaver running - don't leave the mouse on the tablet ! genius !
[12:59] <Celestianpower> cwillu: http://www.addon-tech.com/
[12:59] <elad`> I set the preferences of Nautilus in a certain directory the way I like them, but whenever I move to another directory, the defaults are used. Help?

[12:59] <Celestianpower> Is the website
[12:59] <Abecedarian> I have files needed to make a DVD Movie but am having trouble figuring out how to burn them onto an actual dvd so I can watch them on any video player.
[12:59] <ailsa_> night night all + thanks ddonky

[01:00] <zenbum> lightstep: what aspect of "init" do you want a gui for?
[01:00] <jjs01h> zenbum: i think he is refering to the bootsplash
[01:00] <freeze> ion_: are u brazillian?
[01:00] <lightstep> zenbum, i want to add another script
[01:00] <ion_> freeze: yeah but we can't talk in portuguese here....
[01:00] <Abecedarian> How would one go about doing this?  gnomebaker seems to require an image file rather than being able to use the .vob (etc) files in folders...
[01:00] <NickGarvey> !port
[01:00] <ubotu> NickGarvey: My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:00] <jjs01h> zenbum: nvm
[01:00] <NickGarvey> I tried
[01:00] <freeze> yes, i know, but can we tal on msn?
[01:00] <Volmarias> lightstep: Ah, this brings us to another fun part. I do System -> Administration -> Networking, and I get the "working" mouse icon for 5 seconds, and then it's the pointer again and I'm back to square one. What gives?
[01:00] <Volmarias> I can't seem to do any sort of administration
[01:00] <elad`> How do I make list-view Nautilus's default?
[01:00] <cwillu> when you did that host archive.ubuntu.com thing, the warning on the last line is very likely the problem
[01:00] <zenbum> lightstep: you want to add a script to /etc/init.d?
[01:01] <freeze> cuz, sometimes i don't know how to write in english, what i need
[01:01] <freeze> lol
[01:01] <Misnix> 0000.
[01:01] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Right
[01:01] <lightstep> zenbum, no, i already put it there and tested it. i want to put it in /etc/rc?.d/
[01:01] <zenbum> lightstep: the package "bum" might be useful to you
[01:01] <ion_> ion: is fine msn...
[01:01] <Volmarias> lightstep: In fact, I think clicking on anything under administration does that. Do I have to somehow login as root (which I didn't think was allowed/possible)
[01:01] <Robe_> hello.
[01:02] <mnemnonic> Abecedarian: Try K3b
[01:02] <Robe_> are any mirror/infrastructure admins in here?
[01:02] <lightstep> Volmarias, dpkg-reconfigure for some package should allow you this configuration too
[01:02] <freeze> ion_: can we talk on msn?
[01:02] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Are you going to be here tomorrow morning?
[01:02] <ion_> ion:give your nike and I add you...
[01:03] <Volmarias> lightstep: I'm a nitwit. Please speak to me accordingly.
[01:03] <Celestianpower> (in 9 or so hours time)
[01:03] <cwillu> that puts me at 3am my time :)
[01:03] <Abecedarian> mnemonic:  Okay, I
[01:03] <Celestianpower> cwillu: lol
[01:03] <cwillu> I'll probably be just getting home :)
[01:03] <elad`> How do I configure Nautilus?
[01:03] <Abecedarian> mnemonic:  Okay, I'll give it a shot.  Thanks!
[01:03] <Celestianpower> cwillu: No then ;)
[01:03] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Oh good
[01:03] <freeze> ion_: my msn is raphaelfariasmiranda at gmail dot com
[01:03] <elad`> I want to set list-view to the default in *all* directories.
[01:03] <lightstep> Volmarias, it's the console interface for the configuration. i'll go look for the magic word
[01:03] <Volmarias> thanks
[01:04] <Celestianpower> cwillu: So you'll be on then will you? Or going straight to bed?
[01:04] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  was there any data sheet your isp gave you that you used to configure it?
[01:04] <cwillu> lol
[01:04] <cwillu> I'll probably be around, 9 hours from now
[01:04] <Celestianpower> cwillu: lol - cool
[01:04] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Goodnight
[01:04] <cwillu> this is bugging me :)
[01:04] <Celestianpower> cwillu: :S
[01:04] <ion_> freeze: I got it...
[01:05] <vars_> hey i want to take my new graphics card for a spin how do i do that?
[01:05] <thewayofzen> Any dapper users having this problem in the last day or so  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=811629#post811629
[01:05] <freeze> thanks to help me
[01:05] <ion_> freeze: anytime.....
[01:05] <edude05> hey everyone
[01:05] <zenbum> thewayofzen: yes i have that problem too
[01:05] <edude05> I need a little help getting my wifi adaptor to work....
[01:05] <thewayofzen> zenbum,  only in the last two days or so correct?
[01:06] <thewayofzen> zenbum,  it was working perfect before that i assume
[01:06] <edude05> I've done some googling but I can't find anything
[01:06] <mnemnonic> elad: edit -> preferences (not sure if i translated that properly ;)
[01:06] <freeze> ion_: do you add me on msn? now?
[01:06] <micahf> hey do youguys know of any open source tax software?
[01:06] <zenbum> thewayofzen: i hadn't tested it before.... but definitely broken now
[01:06] <thewayofzen> zenbum, i would assume its just part of the developement process and should eventually straighten out?
[01:06] <Abecedarian> mnemonic:  Am I supposed to just do "File > New Project > New Video DVD Project" and then drag the audio_ts and video_ts files down to the bottom?
[01:07] <ion_> freeze: no worries....
[01:07] <Gorrth> does someone know how to autostart powernowd in "ondemand" on boot ?
[01:07] <mikebot> last night i got easyubuntu, with the help of some members of this chat, and this morning, when i open synaptic, i get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9979
[01:07] <zenbum> thewayofzen: no, it's a new feature  ;)
[01:07] <freeze> ok i'm waiting
[01:07] <thewayofzen> zenbum,  AWESOME my favorite feature yet ;)
[01:07] <zenbum> lol
[01:07] <thewayofzen> at least i know im not alone.  hopefully some people will post to the thread so i can find out if i should file a bug report etc
[01:08] <mnemnonic> Abecedarian: I think so, but I never tried that so far
[01:08] <tonyyarusso> How to play a .rax music file from a friend?  (Is it even possible?  Maybe DRM restricted...)
[01:08] <tritium> don't forget that dapper questions are more appropriate for #ubuntu+1
[01:08] <nickrud> mikebot, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list, look for the line that has cdrom in it, and put a # at the beginning; then use synaptic to reload sources
[01:09] <Abecedarian> mnemonic:  I noticed that it by default has AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS, so if I try to drag what I have - all in lowercase - it lists both.  Should I just delete the upper-case defaults or actually rename the files I have and overwrite the defaults?
[01:09] <Volmarias> lightstep: Heck with it. I'll just reinstall.
[01:09] <mikebot> NickGarvey, it is blank
[01:09] <Volmarias> lightstep: Thanks for the help though
[01:10] <lightstep> Volmarias, before that, try running network-admin
[01:10] <Volmarias> lightstep: ok
[01:10] <Volmarias> lightstep: how
[01:10] <Alos> hi, little question, how to fix x windows system
[01:10] <nickrud> mikebot, that for me?
[01:10] <lightstep> Volmarias, from the shell or something
[01:10] <mikebot> nickrud, yes, osrry
[01:10] <Volmarias> oh, its a program
[01:10] <lightstep> Accessories>Terminal
[01:10] <lightstep> yes
[01:10] <zenbum> alos: use a mac
[01:10] <mikebot> nickrud, but it is: home/michael/'/etc/apt/sources
[01:10] <mnemnonic> Abecedarian: I would rename your files to uppercase ... as I mentioned, I have never tried that so far
[01:11] <lux_> hows the german ubuntu channel?
[01:11] <sud0n1m> Are there any drawbacks to using ubuntu as a server?
[01:11] <Alos> zenbum: nice answer but to $$$$$
[01:11] <nickrud> mikebot, no, your sources are in not in home at any way; /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:11] <mikebot> nickrud, i typed what you gave me and that's what it opened
[01:11] <Volmarias> lightstep: fantastic, it just wasn't configured or enabled
[01:12] <zenbum> Alos: what's wrong with your X?
[01:12] <Volmarias> lightstep: Great! networking works!
[01:12] <Volmarias> Now if you can just tell me how to enable the administration menus
[01:12] <nickrud> mikebot:     gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list   <--- cut and paste into a terminal
[01:12] <Volmarias> I think I'll be all set :)
[01:12] <sud0n1m> Is there an easy solution to move my installation from Debian Sarge to Ubuntu? I dont want to lose my databases
[01:12] <Abecedarian> mnemonic:  Hmm, okay.  I'll give it a go and leave IRC open to let you know if it works.
[01:12] <lightstep> Volmarias, still, not having the administration menu working is a big bug. maybe someone at ##gnome will know something about it
[01:12] <Abecedarian> mnemonic:  Time is more expensive that DVD-Rs these days!
[01:12] <nickrud> sud0n1m, look at preserving /var ; debian keeps most databases there by default
[01:12] <Alos> zenbum: did not start
[01:12] <mikebot> nickrud, i have been
[01:13] <mnemnonic> Abecedarian: Maybe www.k3b.org helps you more
[01:13] <mikebot> nickrud, i get this in terminal: (gedit:23799): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[01:13] <mikebot> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[01:13] <nickrud> mikebot, don't worry about those, those are transient errors
[01:13] <Volmarias> lightstep: Oh. I thought I just misconfigured something
[01:13] <mikebot> nickrud, and it opens the blank file '/home/michael/'/etc/apt/sources.list'
[01:13] <grout> what file do i gotta edit so i manualy set the ip address
[01:13] <Volmarias> lightstep: I'll ask there, thanks
[01:13] <blekos> any ideas how i can patch a module in the kernel?
[01:13] <nickrud> mikebot, type ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list, and paste the one line answer here
[01:14] <Stormx2> how do I burn an ISO in ubuntu?
[01:14] <zenbum> Alos: take a look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:14] <sud0n1m> nickrud: Should I be able to mount the database again in MySQL when I load up Ubuntu? I tar-ed the whole system based on instructions I found on the ubuntuforum site.
[01:14] <nickrud> Stormx2, right click the iso in the file manager, and select write to disk
[01:14] <mikebot> nickrud, -rw-r--r--  1 root root 1873 2006-03-02 09:46 /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:14] <mumbles> ok i cant get ndiswrapper to install with either apt-get install or the addaplications
[01:14] <nickrud> mikebot, then you are doing something wrong somewhere, because home is not in that line
[01:15] <sud0n1m> if I have an IA64 computer, should I use the AMD64 install cd?
[01:15] <mikebot> nickrud, i'm copying and pasting your lines
[01:15] <Jhair> sud0n1m: no
[01:15] <nickrud> mikebot, pm me
[01:15] <sud0n1m> Jhair: just use the i386 one?
[01:15] <sud0n1m> Jhair: Maybe I used the wrong acronym - I meant 64 bit intel chip - whatever it is called
[01:16] <Jhair> sud0n1m: as far as I know ubuntu doesn't support the IA64 architecture...
[01:16] <vars_> hey i am using fubuntu how can i change the screen resolution?
[01:16] <nickrud> sud0n1m, if you untar back into var, I would think so
[01:16] <sud0n1m> nickrud: cool - thanks for the help!
[01:16] <Jhair> sud0n1m: my apologies it does support it
[01:16] <Alos> zenbum:thanks, how is the minimum system for ubuntu??
[01:16] <mikebot> nnickdid youg et the pm?
[01:16] <nickrud> sud0n1m, don't take me as gospel on this, I'm reaching ozone here :)
[01:16] <Jhair> sud0n1m: e.g.: http://ie.releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-cdimage/ports/releases/breezy/release/ubuntu-5.10-install-ia64.iso
[01:17] <mikebot> nickrud, i pmed you
[01:17] <john__> Hi all. I cab't mount the floppy drive. I have "no filesystem type specified" .... any ideas?
[01:17] <nickrud> mikebot, no, I didn't. you may need to do /msg nickserv register <passwd> to get pm rights
[01:17] <grout> pm nickrud hey
[01:17] <lcore> Ubuntu dapper : Is it posiible to hold-back a package (mplayer) in synaptic so it doesn't get auto-upgraded?

[01:17] <mikebot> nickrud, i am registered, let me see if i'm logges in
[01:18] <grout> what file do i gotta edit so i manualy set the ip address
[01:18] <Hatfield> how to i update my applications list?
[01:18] <nickrud> grout, /etc/network/interfaces
[01:19] <cwillu> nickrud, btw, found the problem with that apt-get thingy;  the router they were using was returning slightly malformed data, just enough to confuse apt :)
[01:19] <Alos> zenbum: yes, my syetem its to old PI 64mb ram, 4gb hd
[01:19] <sud0n1m> For maximum compatibility should I use the i386 install rather than the IA64 install? I will be missing some packages going with IA64 right?
[01:19] <nickrud> cwillu, I'm glad I bowed out, I'd never have found that one
[01:20] <cwillu> still not done though;  the router doesn't seem to display the isp's dns anywhere :)
[01:20] <Hatfield> how to i update my applications list?
[01:20] <zenbum> Alos: that part should be okay.... the question is whether your graphics adapter is supported by X
[01:20] <cwillu> and the fix is to add the isp's dns directly to resolv.conf :)
[01:20] <cwillu> gah

[01:24] <Makura> Can someone explain to me the whole process of extracting tar.gz ?
[01:24] <nickrud> the topic should say, NEVER run ANYONES scripts that claim to set your ubuntu up!
[01:24] <rob> tar -zxf file.tar.gz
[01:25] <mnemnonic> Makura: Use File-Roller
[01:25] <grout> where is the file for setting up? sorry i missed it when u said it last
[01:25] <cwillu> nickrud;  unless its a deb?
[01:25] <Makura> mnemnonic: Where would I get ahold of that?  Through Synaptic?
[01:25] <rob> nickrud, it wasn't that
[01:25] <nickrud> cwillu, if it comes from ubuntu, ok
[01:25] <john__> Hi all. I have lost my floppy drive. "no filesystem type specified" ... any ideas anyone?
[01:25] <cwillu> backports?
[01:25] <cwillu> (although those are official)
[01:25] <cwillu> debian?
[01:25] <nickrud> rob, ? I may have misses something
[01:25] <mnemnonic> Makura: Yes ... but it should already be installed (normally)
[01:26] <rob> nickrud, that stuff in the topic wasn't some script
[01:26] <Makura> mnemnonic: Hm..
[01:26] <sud0n1m> is there a different availability of software depending on if you chose AMD64 or i386?
[01:26] <Makura> mnemnonic: I have it, heh
[01:26] <nickrud> rob, I mean as a warning, and a disclaimer of those <> scipts
[01:27] <rob> nickrud, as in auto*****?
[01:27] <cwillu> maybe a better rule would be "don't trust anything that claims to make ubuntu easier" :P
[01:27] <nickrud> rob, or it's near equiv
[01:27] <rob> yeah, did you see the ubuntu uncyclopedia artical?
[01:27] <nickrud> cwillu, yeah, so, back to the fun :)

[01:30] <rob> kill pid
[01:30] <Makura> dabaR: Trying to install a plugin for it.
[01:30] <rob> or killall programname, to kill all programs of that name
[01:30] <zenbum> or killall programname
[01:30] <heyjoe2> NegativeSpace: open terminal, type xkill
[01:30] <nickrud> rob, you're not saying, one of those scripts is there?
[01:31] <dabaR> Makura: no instructions?
[01:31] <rob> nickrud, no, but auto***** is talked about on there :)
[01:31] <cyphase> is it possible to lock an icon on the desktop

[01:41] <HymnToLife> grout> /etc/network/interfacs
[01:41] <grout> thanks
[01:41] <HymnToLife> grout> /etc/network/interfaces sorry
[01:41] <NickGarvey> woo bret no idea, I don't use a GUI
[01:41] <bret> oh what do you use
[01:42] <NickGarvey> command line
[01:42] <nickrud> rob, heh. That page could be fun ;)
[01:42] <elad`> Ever since I installed Ubuntu, when I'm running Ubuntu the clock's just fine, but when I go back to WinXP, it's two hours behind.
[01:42] <bret> thats neet
[01:42] <NickGarvey> takes some getting used too
[01:42] <NickGarvey> my laptop has many prolems with linux
[01:42] <bret> its safe
[01:42] <HymnToLife> NickGarvey> so how come you're here if you use only command line ?
[01:42] <NickGarvey> so I got an old computer, tossed it in a corner, and its now a server
[01:43] <MadPirateBippy> Ahoy. I'm a newb who managed to kill her machine switching to Ubuntu- can anyone help? Or should I go to another channel?
[01:43] <bret> irc is command line
[01:43] <HymnToLife> same here :)
[01:43] <NickGarvey> HymnToLife: I know some command line, and I used a gui for a chucnk of time
[01:43] <Tonga> Hi I changed the formating of my time in KDE and now when running apt-get I get a timestamp error saying I'm to far into the future
[01:43] <NickGarvey> MadPirateBippy: what do you mean kill?
[01:43] <MadPirateBippy> I have an aged G3, OneFish, that had OS9.1 on it that someone gave me to play with.
[01:44] <HymnToLife> Tonga> did you turn your computer into a time machine ?:F
[01:44] <HymnToLife> lol
[01:44] <MadPirateBippy> It took me about an hour to get it to play nice with the 5.10 disk, and I thought everything had gone well...
[01:44] <grout> what do i have to put in that file to set the ip?
[01:44] <bret> i love old operating systems i think they are our future
[01:44] <Volmarias> Hi, I'm trying to enable "Be able to get administrator priveleges" for the one and only user on my system (except root). I cannot use the Administration folders, so you'll have to tell me how to do things via console. I can do su. sudo fails always.
[01:44] <Tonga> HymnToLife: well the time is set correctly, besides it shows am instead of pm
[01:45] <MadPirateBippy> but whenever it gets past booting up, it starts being mean to the monitor, and now they aren't talking.
[01:45] <Volmarias> I've enabled the root account, and set its password
[01:45] <Volmarias> I've also been able to login by ctrl-alt-f1 and logging in as root
[01:45] <zenbum> brent: yes, CP/M was the peak of OS technology
[01:45] <Volmarias> so I KNOW I didn't botch the password
[01:45] <HymnToLife> well, that's cause you used sudo when your computes was showing i.e. 11 pm
[01:45] <NickGarvey> !sudo
[01:45] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[01:45] <bret> totally
[01:45] <NickGarvey> hmm mean to the monitor..
[01:45] <MadPirateBippy> I can't figure out how to get my OSX laptop to talk to OneFish, either- so I have a box here that I can't see what the hell is going on.
[01:45] <Tonga> But I can't change it to pm...
[01:45] <HymnToLife> now you try to us it while it's showing 11 am and it doesn't work, that's pretty normal
[01:45] <NickGarvey> I've never had a prob with the monitor..
[01:45] <Volmarias> ubotu: If you're speaking to me, the root password is set now.
[01:45] <ubotu> Volmarias: what are you talking about?
[01:45] <Volmarias> ubotu: I have a problem.
[01:45] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Volmarias
[01:46] <Volmarias> you're a bot :(
[01:46] <ardchoille> Volmarias: ubotu is a info bot
[01:46] <HymnToLife> !ubotu
[01:46] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
[01:46] <Volmarias> boo.
[01:46] <Volmarias> Anyway, does anyone have an idea how to help with this?
[01:46] <Volmarias> If nothing else, just tell me what to put in my "sudoers" file
[01:46] <HymnToLife> with what ?
[01:46] <Tonga> HymnToLife: also after doing a apt-get upgrade I can adjust my clock in KDE it says it can't star su
[01:46] <Tonga> heh
[01:46] <heyjoe2> hi can anyone help me: when i plug a usb device into the computer nothing happens
[01:46] <Tonga> Sounds like something broke :/
[01:46] <Volmarias> I have one account + root on my machine. The password for root has been set, and I can log into root. I CANNOT do sudo.
[01:47] <HymnToLife> nope it's normal
[01:47] <Volmarias> This means I can't do anything in the administrator folders
[01:47] <Tonga> The su error?
[01:47] <Volmarias> I CAN use se
[01:47] <Volmarias> su
[01:47] <HymnToLife> you should reset the sudo timestamp but I don't know how to do it
[01:47] <bret> ive noticed linux likes one driver at a time
[01:47] <Volmarias> I've done "users-admin" and under me I have "executing system administration tasks" checked
[01:47] <Tonga> HymnToLife: me either, im not a noob to linux, but i normally dont use sudo
[01:47] <Volmarias> I do NOT have "Be able to get administrator priveleges"
[01:47] <MadPirateBippy> The error I'm getting is an Out Of Frequency Range error on the monitor, then the monitor goes dead.
[01:47] <Volmarias> it does not display it
[01:48] <Tonga> HymnToLife: is there anyone experienced on this channel? :P
[01:48] <HymnToLife> I guess so lol
[01:48] <Tonga> Mad
[01:48] <Tonga> oops
[01:48] <MadPirateBippy> I've played around with SuSe and with Debian Unstable.
[01:48] <Volmarias> so no one has a clue?
[01:48] <john___> Can anyone tell me how to specify a filesystem for the floppy?
[01:48] <MadPirateBippy> I don't suck a$$, but I'm not great.
[01:48] <Tonga> MadPirateBippy: its a problem with your xorg.conf
[01:48] <HymnToLife> MadPirateBippy> looks like you're trying to use a resolution/refresh rate your monitor doesn't support
[01:48] <zenbum> MadPirateBippy: try a newer monitor if one is available
[01:49] <MadPirateBippy> Yeah, that's what I figured was going on, but how the heck do I fix it if I can't type anything into the computer?
[01:49] <Volmarias> anybody? bueller?
[01:49] <heyjoe2> hi can anyone help me: when i plug a usb device into the computer nothing happens?
[01:49] <MadPirateBippy> I can't get a new monitor- this one was free and came with the free boxen.
[01:49] <Tonga> hit alt+ctrl+f1
[01:49] <Tonga> do you get a console?
[01:49] <Volmarias> yes
[01:49] <cwillu> !ubotu
[01:49] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
[01:49] <Volmarias> I CAN log in as root
[01:49] <Tonga> im not talking to you :P
[01:49] <Volmarias> grr
[01:49] <Volmarias> sorry
[01:49] <grout> can someone tell me what i have to put in interfaces to set the ip?
[01:49] <Volmarias> oh well, I'll try the forums.
[01:49] <Volmarias> thanks for the help
[01:50] <MadPirateBippy> I have the monitor set up right now to give me a dual screen setup with my laptop, which is cool, but not what I really want.
[01:50] <HymnToLife> grout> are you using a gui (KDE or GNOME) ?
[01:51] <Installer36> Heyjoe2> have you tried mount
[01:51] <zenbum> MadPirateBippy: Ctrl-Opt-F1 should switch you to a text screen
[01:52] <bret> i love you guys nerds rule
[01:52] <NegativeSpace> I've installed JRE 1.5 but Firefox doesn't seem to think I have -- I tried Sun's installation guide to no avail... how can I get Firefox to see the JRE?
[01:52] <Toma-> bret, who said we were nerds?
[01:52] <heyjoe2> Installer36: I dont know how to do mount. im a beginner and not very good at the command line
[01:52] <bret> i was projecting again
[01:52] <Installer36> HeyJoe2 > me either but in the terminal try mount
[01:52] <Toma-> NegativeSpace, have you linked the java plugin .so to the new firefox1.5 directory?
[01:53] <grout> im using gnome
[01:53] <Cody`> Anyone know why ubuntu's pthread headers don't have PTHREAD_RECURSIVE_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP?
[01:53] <MadPirateBippy> zenbum: I'm setting it up now to try that

[01:54] <MadPirateBippy> Okay, I've got the text screen, now what do I do?
[01:54] <Tonga> Can someone help me with this timestamp error with sudo
[01:54] <NegativeSpace> Egad.

[01:55] <Installer36> lsusb
[01:55] <Managu> fade__, I'm running Ubuntu on an AMD64, albeit the 32bit distribution
[01:55] <MadPirateBippy> Brett: I agree. Nerds rock.
[01:55] <zenbum> MadPirateBippy: you need to fix /etc/X11/xorg.conf to get X working.... but since I nothing about your monitor I can't advise you much there
[01:56] <HymnToLife> MadPirateBippy> try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:56] <fade__> managu, do you know, where can i get w32codecs for amd64?
[01:56] <mahangu> how can i change my hostname? hostname SET NAME doesn't work
[01:56] <MadPirateBippy> Do you remember when the Blue and White g3's first came out?
[01:56] <HymnToLife> it migh be a bit frightening though, stick with the defauts except for the resolution
[01:56] <MadPirateBippy> I have the monitor that goes with that.
[01:56] <misfit_toy> mahangu, /etc/hosts
[01:56] <mahangu> misfit_toy: thanks
[01:56] <misfit_toy> np
[01:56] <Managu> fade__: not a clue, sorry
[01:56] <Stormx2> Ack. Kororaa is rubbish >_<
[01:57] <fade__> ok

[01:57] <Toma-> NegativeSpace, sorry, nature called. :D open up firefox and goto "about:plugins"
[01:57] <Toma-> biker4444, is it installed on the usb drive?
[01:57] <biker4444> yes
[01:57] <NegativeSpace> Toma Okay, done.
[01:57] <mahangu> exit
[01:57] <biker4444> used the autopartition option on install
[01:57] <mahangu> exit
[01:57] <NegativeSpace> Toma Nothing there.
[01:58] <Toma-> biker4444, well you need to boot from the usb drive..
[01:58] <Toma-> NegativeSpace, okie.
[01:58] <Toma-> NegativeSpace, whats the location of the new ff dir?
[01:58] <jcuk> Where is my linux kernel source kept on ubuntu?
[01:58] <Installer36> heyjoe2> was it listed under lsusb
[01:58] <heyjoe2> installer36: do u think ud be able to help me if i pastebin'd what i got
[01:58] <jcuk> i tried /usr/src/linux, not there
[01:58] <Toma-> jcuk, have you installed it?
[01:58] <jcuk> probably not, how do i do it?
[01:59] <Installer36> Did you try lsusb
[01:59] <biker4444> Toma>bios is all set, grub boot menu comes up, kernal begins loading, splash screen saying "loading modules" at the bottom comes up, then it return an error saying /dev/sda1 was not found
[01:59] <Toma-> jcuk, hummmm... are you rebuilding the kernel or just a module for it?
[01:59] <Stormx2> How do I check what graphics card I have?
[01:59] <jcuk> Toma- Im installing 2 patches
[01:59] <Installer36> heyjoe2 what are you plugging in
[01:59] <heyjoe2> Installer36: im pretty sure it didnt recognize it. cos i took it out and typed mount, and i got the exact same response
[01:59] <Makura> Where is the Gaim package located?
[01:59] <Toma-> jcuk, ok then
[01:59] <heyjoe2> installer36: usb 2 port
[01:59] <NegativeSpace> Toma Well I think that's part of the problem, I THINK it's /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox, but I don't know for sure, and I don't know how to check.
[02:00] <Installer36> Hardware?
[02:00] <Stormx2> :) please?
[02:00] <Toma-> NegativeSpace, how did you install it?
[02:00] <zenbum> MadPirateBippy: does your keyboard have a numeric keypad with a + key?.... if so, press Ctrl-Opt-F7 to change back to X screen, then press Ctrl-Opt-+ repeatedly... it might eventually sync up
[02:00] <Toma-> biker4444, sounds interesting... can you boot in recovery mode?
[02:00] <heyjoe2> installer36: a 128mb usb drive
[02:00] <biker4444> toma followed tutorial at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80811

[02:03] <funtrac> hello, I have an nvidia Geforce 2 MX400 configured working properly, but I'm trying to set twinview without success, I've added Options to my device section inside xorg.conf but when I check /var/log/Xorg.log it says those options are not used, any ideas?I'm using driver nv because with driver nvidia it hangs, thanks in advance
[02:03] <Genfoo> How can I remove the old unused kernels and associated files?
[02:03] <MadPirateBippy> ZenBum: it didn't work.
[02:03] <Genfoo> I have like 500 kernels :-P
[02:03] <MadPirateBippy> As far as I could tell, nothing changed.
[02:03] <ion_> Gentoo: did you find answer???
[02:03] <biker4444> toma, boots but kernal possibly isnt loading right modules/right loading order for modules to recognize drive
[02:03] <jcuk> Toma- will i need to download the kernel source and then install it?
[02:03] <nickrud> Genfoo, aptitude purge <selected kernels>
[02:04] <Genfoo> :-)
[02:04] <jcuk> bah bugger it ill sort it 2moz, goin to bed, nn
[02:04] <Toma-> jcuk, no, run "sudo apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.12" iirc...
[02:04] <jcuk> oh
[02:04] <nickrud> Genfoo, it's all good, your grub will be updated :)
[02:04] <zenbum> MadPirateBippy: too bad, that would have been an easy fix.... well, for the time being you can use Ctrl-Opt-F1 through -F6 to switch between different text consoles

[02:05] <Toma-> jcuk, doh :/ you can find it at packages.ubuntu.com then
[02:05] <Genfoo> linux-kernel-'uname -r' ?
[02:05] <MadPirateBippy> I need to use OneFish for graphics work.

[02:06] <Makura> What are the letters after the 'tar' command?  zxf and what else?
[02:06] <Genfoo> wow
[02:06] <pdavid> i fkn hate domain squatters
[02:06] <MadPirateBippy> So, how do I use the command line and fiddle with the monitor settings?
[02:06] <nickrud> Genfoo, really?
[02:06] <bret> just curious
[02:06] <Genfoo> Makura, for gzipped tar archives its tar zxf <filename>
[02:06] <Genfoo> nickrud, rofl yeah
[02:07] <nickrud> Genfoo, show me the line :)
[02:07] <ion_> Gentoo: I did you get it I had to go away....
[02:07] <Makura> Genfoo: I thought there was 4 letters
[02:07] <Toma-> biker4444, sounds like a great idea youre going thru with :) You know, there are external HDD that you can buy with ubuntu pre-installed!
[02:08] <zenbum> MadPirateBippy: you are now beyond my feeble nerd powers  :)
[02:08] <Genfoo> guys, look at this
[02:08] <Genfoo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9987
[02:08] <Genfoo> nickrud, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9987
[02:08] <biker4444> toma, i like my 300gb nice i just bought :-D
[02:08] <Genfoo> oh crap nvm :-)
[02:08] <Genfoo> aptitude outsmarted me
[02:09] <Genfoo> it realized that openoffice help is pointless xP
[02:09] <MadPirateBippy> ZenBum: thanks so much for your help anyway, I really appriciate it. At least now I can get to the command line.
[02:09] <Toma-> im not saying get a new one ;) have you tried doing steps 7-10 again?
[02:09] <nickrud> Genfoo, ok, yes, replaced by something else
[02:09] <heyjoe2> hi can anyone help me: when i plug a usb device into the computer nothing happens
[02:09] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - what kind of reaction are you expecting?
[02:09] <nickrud> I did the same purge (exactly, as a coincidence) and didn't have any openoffice stuff) I do like aptitude :)
[02:10] <bk> does anyone know how to decrypt AAC music files?
[02:10] <dabaR> as in listen to them?
[02:10] <nickrud> !faac
[02:10] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, nickrud
[02:10] <heyjoe2> ddonky: for it to come up on my desktop and allow me to access saved fils
[02:10] <zenbum> bk: use a mac
[02:10] <nickrud> !aac
[02:10] <Toma-> !info faac
[02:10] <ubotu> well, aac is read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats for information about aac support
[02:10] <ubotu> faac: (an AAC audio encoder), section multiverse/sound, is optional. Version: 1.24clean-0ubuntu3 (breezy), Packaged size: 33 kB, Installed size: 92 kB
[02:10] <NegativeSpace> Toma You are God-like.
[02:10] <Genfoo> zenbum, not good advice ;-)
[02:10] <bk> Toma, that's what i'm reading, but i don't understand what it's saying.
[02:10] <Toma-> NegativeSpace, why? :/
[02:10] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - a flash drive? a camera? an ipod?
[02:11] <heyjoe2> ddonky: flash
[02:11] <NegativeSpace> Toma You got Firefox seeing JRE for me.
[02:11] <Toma-> ddonky, no, its superman!
[02:11] <ddonky> lol
[02:11] <CarlFK> is there an apt-get command to add universe to the existing line in sources.list?
[02:11] <ion_> sorry guys to ask the same question because I was away that's why....so what shall I do to get rid of from the old kernels..?
[02:11] <Toma-> NegativeSpace, haha :D you should have followed that tutorial a bit further
[02:11] <zenbum> CarlFK: vi /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:11] <erg0t_> hello fellow ubuntu users
[02:11] <erg0t_> :D
[02:11] <NegativeSpace> Toma What can I say -- I'm stupid.
[02:11] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - i've never used a flash drive, 'cept ipod shuffle
[02:11] <CarlFK> ion_: why do you want to get rid of them?
[02:11] <Toma-> NegativeSpace, teehehe :D
[02:11] <bk> is decrypting the same as encoding?
[02:11] <CarlFK> zenbum: swell... ;)
[02:11] <Toma-> ion_, just use synaptic
[02:12] <nickrud> CarlFK, no, if you have a standard /etc/apt/sources.list, add multiverse at the ends of line 19 & 20, make sure there's no # at the begining of the line
[02:12] <heyjoe2> ddonky: ok
[02:12] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - do any other usb devices work on the same ports?
[02:12] <CarlFK> nickrud: trying to script it
[02:12] <nickrud> CarlFK, and update (apt-get update, or reload in synaptic)
[02:12] <heyjoe2> ddonky: my mp3 player works on the port
[02:12] <heyjoe2> ddonky: and the mouse
[02:12] <ion_> CarlFK: I don't use them do I ?
[02:12] <basketcase3> Hi, could someone gelp me get my Winmodem up and running? I'm already past the scanModem stage, and I am pretty sure I have found my driver I need.
[02:12] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - ok, so the port is being seen....
[02:12] <Toma-> CarlFK, youll need to delve into the world of sed
[02:12] <erg0t_> soooooo... im triying to enable/use/figure out SMB networking in Ubuntu breezy badger
[02:13] <CarlFK> Toma-: thats why I was hoping for an apt-command ;)
[02:13] <erg0t_> not much success :(
[02:13] <Toma-> CarlFK, no apt will add universe :/
[02:13] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - can you mount it by hand? using teh command-line
[02:13] <heyjoe2> ddonky: i dont know how
[02:13] <CarlFK> ion_: messing with the kernels for no good reason is a bad place to start learning how to do things
[02:13] <zenbum> CarlFK: sed might be tool you want
[02:13] <erg0t_> ehm... anybody?
[02:13] <siggi> how can I see what version im using of kubuntu ? breezy or what...
[02:13] <CarlFK> ion_: so in this case, if you have to ask, you shouldn't be messing with it
[02:14] <nickrud> sed is overkill, unless you wanna give them the exact one-liner
[02:14] <basketcase3> Err....what was that all about?
[02:14] <erg0t_> um
[02:14] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - well, make a mountpount- 'sudo mkdir /mnt/flash' or whatever you want to name it
[02:14] <MadPirateBippy> Okay, I got something new
[02:14] <ion_> CarlFK: I know but what what can I do with the old ones when I get upgrade..???
[02:14] <CarlFK> ion_: they will be fine
[02:14] <nickrud> basketcase3, I've got a win modem that truly sucks, I'm blowing off steam.
[02:14] <MadPirateBippy> It says: can't read lib/modulespowerpc/kernel/drivers/video and then a whole bunch of files at the end.
[02:15] <NegativeSpace> How do I remove programs I've uninstalled from the Applications menu?
[02:15] <basketcase3> Oh. Ok. I was confused for a second.
[02:15] <MadPirateBippy> What's going on there, and how do I fix it?
[02:15] <Toma-> im out of here. time to pick up the new pc! woot :D
[02:15] <erg0t_> ok, thanks
[02:15] <erg0t_> bye
[02:15] <ion_> CarlFk: don't worry I have a old pc just to mess around...:)
[02:16] <heyjoe2> ddonky: ok i did that, what now
[02:16] <heyjoe2> ddonky: called it flash
[02:16] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - then mount it there. 'sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/flash'
[02:16] <siggi>  how can I see what version im using of kubuntu ? breezy or what ?? :)
[02:16] <heyjoe2> it says i must specify the filesystem type
[02:16] <CarlFK> ion_: then help me review http://dabodev.com/wiki/LiveCDDaboDemo ;)
[02:16] <heyjoe2> ddonky: it says i must specify the filesystem type
[02:16] <ddonky> ok, what filesystem is it?
[02:17] <CarlFK> ion_: the answer to your Q is: rm
[02:17] <heyjoe2> ddonky: i dont know?
[02:17] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - k, do you use it with windows?
[02:17] <CarlFK> ion_: kernels are just files, to remove them, use the rm command
[02:17] <nickrud> siggi, apt-cache policy kdelibs
[02:17] <Installer36> hayjoe2 did have the thumbdrive plugged in during boot up
[02:18] <examancer> quick question: how do you remove a server that I added through Places > Connect to Server ?
[02:18] <NegativeSpace> Has anyone here got jEdit installed -- if so, how?
[02:18] <LSZH> examancer: And how can I change the properties of such a server?
[02:18] <examancer> the server list is getting pretty long after using nautilus for all my ftp, and some of the servers i want to get out of there as it was just a one time use
[02:19] <siggi> nickrud: and how do I change to the unstable vesrion ?
[02:19] <Genfoo> what's the command for auto-reconfiguring GRUB based on installed kernels?
[02:19] <nickrud> Genfoo, update-grub
[02:19] <Genfoo> :-)
[02:19] <examancer> LSZH: i dunno. is that a rhetorical question? do you have the key? :P
[02:19] <ion_> CarlFk: cool man thanks....if I'm not mess arround I won't never be good...:)
[02:19] <LSZH> examancer: No, that's an additional question... ;)
[02:19] <Genfoo> nickrud, thanks -- that's awesome :D
[02:19] <examancer> heh... damn. thats what i thought. just hoping
[02:19] <nickrud> siggi, I'm not sure what you mean; but kubuntu will have updated libs in dapper (which is currently unstable)
[02:20] <LSZH> examancer: Can't you just unmount your FTP connections?
[02:20] <MadPirateBippy> Oh, hey, is the person with the date problem on their machine still here?
[02:20] <grout_> how do i get into the wireless tools?
[02:20] <examancer> LSZH: how? wheres the mount point even at? nautilus does it for me so i dunno
[02:20] <nickrud> siggi, s/libs/kde/
[02:20] <LSZH> examancer: Well, I cannot change the properties of an FTP connection, however, I can unmount it... right mouse click, unmount...
[02:21] <examancer> where can i right click on it? if i go to the places menu and right click, the ftp connection is opened
[02:21] <elad`> How do I watch .rm files?
[02:21] <examancer> if i do it from the nautilus window, right click just does nothing
[02:21] <LSZH> examancer: Oh, I had shourtcuts on the desktop...
[02:21] <emonkey> elad`, install realplyer
[02:22] <elad`> I can't find it in synaptic.
[02:22] <nickrud> elad`, http://RealplayerInstallHowto
[02:22] <examancer> LSZH: oh, i figured it out... if you change the sidebar in nautilus from Places to Tree or something else you can right click on it there
[02:22] <HymnToLife> !realplayer
[02:22] <ubotu> I heard realplayer is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[02:22] <grout_> how do i get into the wireless tools?
[02:22] <ion_> CarlFK: well I have some problem with my USB ports as well, do you think you can help me ?
[02:22] <ddonky> elad - the synaptic version is realplayer 8 anyway, it is really old
[02:22] <gilianima> is ruby going to replace java ?
[02:22] <nickrud> same thing, really :)
[02:22] <examancer> LSZH: still no way to change the config though... guess you just have to unmount and remount with the new settings
[02:23] <Genfoo> ruby != java
[02:23] <elad`> Is it spyware-infested, like its windows counterpart?
[02:23] <CarlFK> ion_: let me try.... nope.  no clue what is wrong.
[02:23] <examancer> indeed it does not
[02:23] <Genfoo> elad`, spyware?
[02:23] <heyjoe2> ddonky: i use the flash drive with windows and mac and it works fine
[02:23] <Genfoo> :O!
[02:23] <nickrud> Genfoo, I was thinking, realplayer.
[02:23] <zenbum> in ubuntu is there a way of tracking testing or unstable, as in Debian?  or must one simply track dapper?
[02:23] <Genfoo> bah not this 1
[02:23] <do_me_nice> whats the command to become root user
[02:23] <Genfoo> su -
[02:23] <Genfoo> do_me_nice, use sudo though
[02:23] <Genfoo> !sudo
[02:23] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[02:23] <PhysicsGeek> hi there
[02:23] <nickrud> zenbum, it's not so simple with ubuntu, mixing is much less easy
[02:23] <elad`> Genfoo, yes, the realplayer version of WinXP has often be infested with spyware and nugware.
[02:24] <elad`> nag
[02:24] <PhysicsGeek> I'm a n00b here, so mind if i ask a dumb question
[02:24] <Genfoo> PhysicsGeek, what the the law of universal gravitation
[02:24] <RageMax> is it generally safe to move from breezy to dapper at this point?
[02:24] <PhysicsGeek> Gm1m2/r^2
[02:24] <Genfoo> :-P
[02:24] <Genfoo> :)
[02:24] <PhysicsGeek> happy? ;~)
[02:24] <Genfoo> :D!
[02:24] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - so it's file type is vfat, 'sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/flash -t vfat'
[02:24] <Mystery47_Newbie> hello everybody!
[02:24] <zenbum> nickrud: i don't want to mix, i just want to track the equivalent of testing..... would that be dapper?
[02:24] <MadPirateBippy> Hehe, PhysicsGeek, I love your name.
[02:24] <Genfoo> ummm
[02:24] <nickrud> RageMax, if you have a spare partition, give dapper to that
[02:24] <RageMax> anyone?
[02:24] <Genfoo> snell's law?
[02:24] <ion_> CarlFK: when I plug my headphone with microphones it doesn't work...
[02:24] <PhysicsGeek> many "rdr" terms pop up in physics, madpirate
[02:24] <Genfoo> pfft
[02:24] <nickrud> zenbum, it's almost to the point of testing, give it a few more weeks
[02:24] <RageMax> nickrud: well, anything that will completely screw over my system ;)
[02:24] <MadPirateBippy> I'm a PhycisGeek fan :) A lot of my ex boyfriends are physics nerds.
[02:25] <ion_> I mean if I wanna skype for example...
[02:25] <examancer> PhysicsGeek: nice to see someone living up to there nick :P
[02:25] <RageMax> I can fix little things if they break
[02:25] <Makura> Is "make" a command?  An installation readme for a Gaim plugin tells me to run 'make', but terminal says "command not found"
[02:25] <CarlFK> ion_: usb headset?  no clue if there is support for that
[02:25] <do_me_nice> su - does not work...
[02:25] <Mystery47_Newbie> i have one little question......how i can make scripts.....what is file name? is it <name>.sh?
[02:25] <HymnToLife> my ex boyfriends are physics nerds. <= lol my gf is too :p
[02:25] <dabaR> Makura: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[02:25] <PhysicsGeek> well, okay, but I do have a question
[02:25] <Genfoo> Mystery47_Newbie, you don't even need a extention
[02:25] <nickrud> Makura, sudo aptitude install build-essential , that'll give you make
[02:25] <PhysicsGeek> there are *female* physics geeks?
[02:25] <Genfoo> Mystery47_Newbie, you write a text document
[02:25] <heyjoe2> ddonky:i typed that
[02:25] <Makura> dabaR, nickrud: Thanks
[02:25] <Genfoo> Mystery47_Newbie, then you save it
[02:26] <MadPirateBippy> Well, all the girl physics geeks here at SU are strait. So sad, go to a small college and all the hot chicks aren't into girls :(
[02:26] <HymnToLife> obviously
[02:26] <Genfoo> Mystery47_Newbie, then type as "sudo chmod a+x <filename>"
[02:26] <Mystery47_Newbie> oh...so if i put some command on file without extension....it works...?
[02:26] <MadPirateBippy> At my uni, 1/2 the CS majors are female.
[02:26] <Hobbsee> PhysicsGeek: sure :P
[02:26] <fnord123> I met some female nuclear physics geeks. wow they were arrogant
[02:26] <examancer> damn PhysicsGeek... when is this question comming? ;)
[02:26] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, you lucky duyde
[02:26] <Genfoo> Mystery47_Newbie, mhmm this is not windoze :D
[02:26] <CarlFK> Mystery47_Newbie: doesn't matter what the name is
[02:26] <PhysicsGeek> so ive recently gotten ubuntu-- how do i partitiion my system to set up windows?
[02:26] <HymnToLife> female geeks are rare but if you search hard enough you can find them lol
[02:26] <dabaR> MadPirateBippy: lies.
[02:26] <MadPirateBippy> I'm a girl.
[02:26] <MadPirateBippy> LOL
[02:26] <grout_> how do i get into the wireless tools?
[02:26] <Genfoo> :o
[02:26] <Genfoo> grout_, what exactly do you mean
[02:26] <Genfoo> there is no unified system
[02:26] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, my bad
[02:26] <Genfoo> sudo network-admin ? :o
[02:26] <Myrth> hi, which package includes dos2unix and unix2dos?
[02:26] <ion_> CarlFK: perhaps somebody else have the same problem.....than me
[02:26] <MadPirateBippy> No lies here. I was one of 6 girls at the ACM turney at LSU last semester.
[02:27] <Genfoo> :-D
[02:27] <grout_> when i ran gentoo update it said it was installing some wireless tools
[02:27] <grout_> thats what the name was
[02:27] <heyjoe2> ddonky: what should i do from here
[02:27] <Mystery47_Newbie> oh.....i just thinked that if i make so scripts to bigger commands...so it will be easier to do later...is it how it works?
[02:27] <Genfoo> iwconfig ?
[02:27] <CarlFK> ion_: usb headset?  probably want to post that on the forum
[02:27] <Genfoo> Mystery47_Newbie, ?
[02:27] <Genfoo> yeah
[02:27] <heyjoe2> ddonky: does it matter if the usb device has a name on the mac computer i use at uni and now we are trying to name it flash?
[02:27] <PhysicsGeek> anyone know a page I can look to for absolute newbies?
[02:27] <nickrud> ion_, or, watch for crimsun here, he knows sound well
[02:27] <Genfoo> umm grout_ we don't gentoo here
[02:27] <Genfoo> :-D
[02:27] <Hobbsee> PhysicsGeek: wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:27] <grout_> oops not gentoo
[02:28] <grout_> i meant ubuntu
[02:28] <MadPirateBippy> Hymn: Girlgeeks aren't hard to find. They just tend to mingle with non-geeks as well, and a lot of them dress preppy. At least here at SU.
[02:28] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - someone ealier recommended rebooting with it in the port. no we are naming the place we are mounting it flash, linux just calls it /dev/sda
[02:28] <PhysicsGeek> there doesnt seem to be much help there in partitiioning once my system is already 100% ubuntu
[02:28] <pinpoint> MadPirateBippy: preppy?
[02:28] <Genfoo> oh resize ext3?
[02:28] <Hobbsee> MadPirateBippy: can we relocate all talk of girls and uni to #ubuntu-offtopic please?
[02:28] <zenbum> MadPirateBippy: girl pirates are still a novelty though  :)
[02:28] <fade__> !gmp
[02:28] <ubotu> fade__: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:28] <Genfoo> :P
[02:28] <CarlFK> how come this worked with the Hoary Live CD, doesn't work with dapper installed: apt-get install wxpython
[02:28] <heyjoe2> ddonky: so reboot the system and leave it in the port
[02:28] <Genfoo> :)
[02:28] <Dr_Fate> how can I determine my hostname?
[02:28] <HymnToLife> PhysicsGeek> you mean you only have ext3partitions ?
[02:28] <Mystery47_Newbie> bec i have this command how to mount windows partition disk.....and its quite long command....so maybe its better like windowspartition or something...
[02:28] <MadPirateBippy> Hobbsee: sure.
[02:28] <heyjoe2> heyjoe: ok ill try that
[02:28] <PhysicsGeek> ....?
[02:29] <Hobbsee> seeing as it's hardly on topic...
[02:29] <ddonky> heyjoe2 - thats what someone else recomennded,
[02:29] <Genfoo> Dr_Fate, cat /etc/hosts
[02:29] <PhysicsGeek> ext3partitions?
[02:29] <nickrud> CarlFK, the name may have changed, you can look for the equiv on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[02:29] <HymnToLife> PhysicsGeek> pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l
[02:29] <ion_> cool man....:).
[02:29] <BIDOO> !_!
[02:29] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, BIDOO
[02:29] <Genfoo> lmfao
[02:29] <Mystery47_Newbie> can i put that script file anywhere i want.....like my own folder?
[02:29] <ddonky> are there two heyjoe's?
[02:29] <BIDOO> ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[02:29] <BIDOO> so i was wondering
[02:29] <Genfoo> oww
[02:29] <CarlFK> nickrud: kinda - all I found was http://packages.ubuntu.com/hoary/python/wxpython2.5.3
[02:29] <PhysicsGeek> thanks, hymn
[02:29] <Genfoo> those 'm''s make my eyes hury
[02:29] <Genfoo> *hurt
[02:30] <HymnToLife> indeed
[02:30] <HymnToLife> such things should be outlawed
[02:30] <BIDOO> i think my local problem is that the bios does not load my sata drivers on the install computer.......................................................
[02:30] <BIDOO> any clues how to do such a thing?
[02:30] <nekostar> ~_~
[02:30] <nekostar> yesh
[02:30] <nekostar> the sata thing
[02:30] <nekostar> :/
[02:30] <pinpoint> it should with ubuntu during install
[02:30] <MadPirateBippy> Allright, how do I change my monitor refresh rate from the command line?
[02:30] <nekostar> when i installed windows i had to do third party drivers
[02:30] <pinpoint> atleast i thought
[02:31] <nekostar> so when i install ubuntu it freaks out
[02:31] <Installer36> ddonky > I thinkhe read your reply as thats what you wanted him to do
[02:31] <nekostar> um
[02:31] <Genfoo> mu
[02:31] <nekostar> it boots all the way to a blinking cursor
[02:31] <HymnToLife> MadPirateBippy> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver -sorg
[02:31] <nekostar> :/
[02:31] <NegativeSpace> Has anyone here got jEdit installed -- if so, how?
[02:31] <nickrud> CarlFK, I'm no python dude, but something has to be a replacement
[02:31] <Genfoo> sudo apt-get install jedit?
[02:31] <Genfoo> :o nvm
[02:31] <Genfoo> O-o
[02:32] <NegativeSpace> Heh.
[02:32] <BIDOO> ok
[02:32] <BIDOO> bot sucks on that one
[02:32] <tallmf> guys=how do I unmount a drive thru CLI?
[02:32] <Mystery47_Newbie> thanks for helping me.....big thanks genfoo and all others...=)
[02:32] <nickrud> CarlFK, try apt-cache search wxpython, one of those should be right
[02:32] <nekostar> no clues?
[02:32] <Genfoo> =D
[02:32] <MadPirateBippy> Hymn: I got the message
[02:32] <ddonky> Installer36 - yeah, I thiink you're right
[02:33] <MadPirateBippy> unknown option: s

[02:33] <Genfoo> tallmf, mount /dev/<device>
[02:33] <MadPirateBippy> hr, repeat, for all the letters in sorg
[02:33] <HymnToLife> hmm maybe I did a typo in the command
[02:33] <Genfoo> er
[02:33] <Grout58> anyone know when the next version of ubuntu will be released?
[02:33] <Genfoo> April 20
[02:33] <MadPirateBippy> and now I am lost.
[02:33] <Genfoo> Dapper :)
[02:33] <nickrud> Grout58, my birthday
[02:33] <tallmf> I want to UNmount though....
[02:33] <HymnToLife> it is : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:33] <Genfoo> umount /media/<device>
[02:34] <HymnToLife> tallmf> sudo umount/whatever/device
[02:34] <Installer36> ddonky >I made the suggestion of rebooting....Shouldnt have?
[02:34] <NegativeSpace> April 20th is one day after my birthday.
[02:34] <Genfoo> sudo umount /media/<device>
[02:34] <NegativeSpace> Whoo.
[02:34] <Genfoo> :P
[02:34] <Coag> you think Xgl will be alpha by the time Dapper comes out?
[02:34] <ion_> see you later everyone.....
[02:34] <Genfoo> well, *technically* you can use dapper *right* *now*
[02:34] <nickrud> Coag, it's already alpha
[02:34] <siggi> is it possible to get glftpd avalible for adept in kubuntu ?? :)
[02:34] <Genfoo> but its still in testing stages
[02:34] <Coag> last I heard it wasn't even alpha yet
[02:34] <Genfoo> Coag, dapper?
[02:34] <Coag> Genfoo: Xgl
[02:34] <ddonky> Installer35 - seems reasonable to me, i'm not a real hacker, i'm barely qualified to offer advice here. :)
[02:34] <Genfoo> ohmg yeah
[02:34] <nickrud> Coag, it works, it has bugs, that's alpha by any def
[02:34] <Genfoo> xgl is super unstable
[02:35] <ddonky> opps, sorry I got yr name wrong
[02:35] <Coag> nickrud: true
[02:35] <Genfoo> xgl is highly experimental
[02:35] <ddonky> Installer36- seems reasonable to me, i'm not a real hacker, i'm barely qualified to offer advice here. :)
[02:35] <Coag> I know I run it on my other box
[02:35] <Genfoo> how did u get it to work?
[02:35] <Coag> easily?
[02:35] <MadPirateBippy> Hey, I'm uber lost here.
[02:35] <NegativeSpace> What's the Ubuntu equivalent to ctrl-alt-del ?
[02:35] <nickrud> !xgl
[02:35] <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/
[02:36] <Coag> I have nvidia
[02:36] <MadPirateBippy> It wants me to select a video card driver.
[02:36] <Genfoo> NegativeSpace, the same thing
[02:36] <Installer36> heyjoe2 did it work?
[02:36] <nickrud> nvidia, 5 minutes with that wiki page
[02:36] <MadPirateBippy> WTH? How do I find that out?
[02:36] <NegativeSpace> Genfoo Nothing happens.
[02:36] <Genfoo> well what are you trying to do?
[02:36] <MadPirateBippy> Is there one for macs?
[02:36] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, lspci in another terminal, that should give you a clue
[02:37] <NegativeSpace> Genfoo Well nothing... yet.
[02:37] <Genfoo> NegativeSpace, umm just press the power button (don't hold it down)
[02:37] <Genfoo> I do that :S
[02:37] <MadPirateBippy> nick: over my head. Smaller words for the newb?
[02:37] <NegativeSpace> Genfoo Okay, cheers.
[02:37] <Genfoo> umm does it work?
[02:37] <NegativeSpace> Genfoo Heh, no.
[02:37] <we2by> what is the latest ubuntu verison?
[02:37] <Genfoo> breezy 5.10
[02:37] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ; if you have standard hardware it should fill that blank in for you
[02:37] <Coag> we2by: stable or sid?
[02:38] <Genfoo> upcoming release 6.04 on April 20
[02:38] <MadPirateBippy> What's Ispci?
[02:38] <Genfoo> Coag, assuming stable
[02:38] <we2by> stable
[02:38] <Coag> k
[02:38] <Genfoo> MadPirateBippy, lspci is ls for pci
[02:38] <Coag> MadPirateBippy: that's an L
[02:38] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, lspci lists all the PCI hardware you have
[02:38] <Coag> not an I
[02:38] <MadPirateBippy> Okay. I'm still not tracking what pci is.
[02:38] <Genfoo> the card stuff in your computer :P
[02:38] <Genfoo> like video card, etc.
[02:39] <antonio_> hello
[02:39] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, pci is most of the slots on the motherboard
[02:39] <HymnToLife> !tell antonio_ about hello
[02:39] <Genfoo> rofl wtF?
[02:39] <nickrud> !tell me about hello
[02:39] <Genfoo> !tell Genfoo about hello
[02:39] <nickrud> that's rude
[02:39] <MadPirateBippy> Oh, that hardware stuff that actually runs the code? It MATTERS?
[02:39] <MadPirateBippy> Damn.
[02:39] <Coag> Genfoo: most video cards are AGP or PCI E nowadays :P

[02:40] <Coag> IGP?
[02:40] <Coag> I use uhh
[02:40] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, lol, software runs on hardware, you gotta tell the software what hardware it runs on
[02:40] <Coag> what are they called

[02:40] <Genfoo> :D

[02:40] <MadPirateBippy> Okay, I'm in a blue screen that's asking me to configure my xserver, and my usual trick of ctrl F8 to open a new window didn't work.
[02:40] <Coag> You make me feel high tech
[02:40] <Coag> I use PCI E
[02:40] <HymnToLife> NegativeSpace> that's rude.. male or female ?
[02:40] <heyjoe2> installer36: it didnt worik
[02:41] <MadPirateBippy> What do I do to get a new session running?
[02:41] <Genfoo> however, Coag
[02:41] <Mystery47_Newbie> when i have made those scripts.....how i can put it work......must i put those files in some folder.....?
[02:41] <Genfoo> I just got a new $250 PC
[02:41] <Genfoo> amazing deal
[02:41] <Coag> cheap dude, sounds like a good deal
[02:41] <Mystery47_Newbie> i just made that chmod thing...
[02:41] <NegativeSpace> HymnToLife Dude, does it really make a difference either way?
[02:41] <Genfoo> AMD Sempron (secterly 64-bit enabled >:) ) 2800+
[02:41] <HymnToLife> hmmno indeed lol
[02:41] <Coag> ahh that's what I've got
[02:41] <HymnToLife> Semprons stink
[02:41] <Genfoo> or wait nvm 3100+
[02:41] <heyjoe2> installer36: any idea where to go from heree
[02:41] <Genfoo> HymnToLife, no they don't
[02:41] <HymnToLife> they're even worse than Celerons
[02:41] <Coag> HymnToLifeL why?
[02:41] <Coag> whay
[02:41] <Genfoo> NO F***ING WAY
[02:42] <Coag> where are you getting these facts?
[02:42] <biloyp> anyone know of an app to convert asf files to amother video format
[02:42] <Genfoo> you seriously must be joking
[02:42] <Coag> anyways, this is wayyyy off topix methinks
[02:42] <HymnToLife> I had two
[02:42] <ddonky> Installer36, heyjoe2 - if he uses it in Mac maybe it's fs isn't being recofnized by ubuntu?
[02:42] <Genfoo> bah
[02:42] <Genfoo> 3100+ ?
[02:42] <Genfoo> or old ones
[02:42] <Genfoo> how old?
[02:42] <HymnToLife> almost shot myself when I did some benchs on it
[02:42] <Coag> I love my sempron
[02:42] <Genfoo> the old ones were terrible
[02:42] <Mystery47_Newbie> Genfoo.....that script thing.....where i must put those scripts that those work well?
[02:42] <Coag> of course before this I had a Duron
[02:42] <Genfoo> because they were repackaged athlons
[02:42] <HymnToLife> well those were almost two years ago
[02:42] <Genfoo> Mystery47_Newbie, ???
[02:42] <HymnToLife> so I guess it was the old ones :p
[02:42] <Genfoo> yeah
[02:43] <Genfoo> shitty athlons without cache
[02:43] <Genfoo> EEW
[02:43] <Coag> I think I have a 256k cache
[02:43] <Coag> on a 1.6 ghz proc
[02:43] <Genfoo> I have a athlon 32 2800+ laptop with 512Kb cache and it sucks
[02:43] <Mystery47_Newbie> i just made script.....but i just get this error: bash: command not found...
[02:43] <HymnToLife> my laptop is Celeron 2,8
[02:43] <HymnToLife> 128KK cacke XD
[02:43] <Genfoo> so I can't imagine a cacheless athlon
[02:43] <Genfoo> xD
[02:43] <zenbum> what's the best graphical irc client?  xchat-gnome sucks..... xchat-gtk is better
[02:43] <Mystery47_Newbie> .....so are my script in wrong place?
[02:43] <Genfoo> zenbum, mhmm
[02:43] <heyjoe2> ddonky: can u recommend anything
[02:43] <Genfoo> zenbum, I use xchat
[02:43] <Coag> zenbum: urk.sf.net
[02:43] <bigfoot1> !deb
[02:43] <ubotu> To install a .deb file: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb  (but note that the program you want might be installable using !apt from the !repos)
[02:44] <Coag> http://urk.sf.net
[02:44] <lampshade> xchat is pretty good.  I still like windows's mIRC best though.
[02:44] <heyjoe2> ddonky: do u think i should just take it into a computer store?
[02:44] <Genfoo> Mystery47_Newbie, no
[02:44] <MadPirateBippy> Hey guys, I'm really stuck here. I'm in a blue-config screen, how do I get another terminal/session open?
[02:44] <HymnToLife> lampshade> mIRC runs perfectly through WINE
[02:44] <Genfoo> HymnToLife, my sempron kicks serious arse
[02:44] <Mystery47_Newbie> so? how my computer see that script...?
[02:44] <Coag> HymnToLife: define perfectly?
[02:44] <Genfoo> HymnToLife, its much better than a pentium 4 even
[02:44] <Genfoo> I can safely say
[02:45] <HymnToLife> Coag> as well as it does on Windows :D
[02:45] <Coag> Script Editor is broken, /help is broken,
[02:45] <Genfoo> anyways,
[02:45] <Mystery47_Newbie> i just made script named mountfs.....mounting ntfs harddrive..
[02:45] <Coag> theres more
[02:45] <Genfoo> its a good deal :)
[02:45] <Coag> lucky Genfoo
[02:45] <zenbum> Coag: I knew someone would tell me about a cool client I'd never heard of....  thanks  :)
[02:45] <Coag> I'm about to pay more than that PSP
[02:45] <Installer36> Heyjoe2 are u using KDE or Gnome
[02:45] <ddonky> MadPirateBippy - alt+F2 will open another terminal, but i'm not real sure how to get back, maybe alt+F7
[02:45] <Coag> zenbum: I know the Devs :P
[02:45] <Coag> I'm supposed to push it
[02:45] <HymnToLife> Genfoo> I gave up on cheap CPUs since I bought my Celeron laptop

[02:46] <Genfoo> HymnToLife, get a budget AMD
[02:46] <Coag> BIDOO: hoary?
[02:46] <NegativeSpace> I try to create a new Jave project in Eclipse and get "Wizard could not start ... unable to load class" errors. Any ideas why?
[02:46] <BIDOO> ubuntu is failing hard
[02:46] <BIDOO> yeah
[02:46] <Genfoo> you will not be regretful
[02:46] <BIDOO> Coagyeah
[02:46] <Coag> you sure it's ubuntu and not a user error?
[02:46] <BIDOO> yes.
[02:46] <HymnToLife> I'm horribly short on cash atm
[02:46] <HymnToLife> can't afford a new one
[02:46] <Genfoo> I don't like anything intel whatsoever anymore
[02:46] <Genfoo> HymnToLife, a $50 AMD?
[02:46] <heyjoe2> ddonky, Installer36: im using gnome
[02:46] <xanavim> nah, it's cheaper to buy multiple desktop PC's and use the laptop as a thin client
[02:46] <BIDOO> the kernel/drivers are not good enough for my sata drives
[02:46] <Coag> someone should crack the PSP and get linux running on it
[02:46] <Genfoo> HymnToLife, or less
[02:46] <BIDOO> Dell Optiplex GX280 Motherboard. <<-----
[02:47] <heyjoe2> ddonky: the computer

[02:47] <HymnToLife> my celeron is driving me nuts
[02:47] <BIDOO> i have to use third party drivers in windows too, ,,, , ,,, ,, ,,,
[02:47] <Genfoo> HymnToLife, I will never buy laptops again
[02:47] <xanavim> then you can just upgrade the motherboard/chip on the desktop pc's and save tons of cash
[02:47] <Coag> BIDOO: try dapper

[02:49] <Genfoo> cause turions use SO little power its ridiculous
[02:50] <nickrud> heyjoe2, you can, if you figure that stuff out, control exactly which usb device is mounted where, and when
[02:50] <SpookyET> hi
[02:50] <Coag> jonolson: someone needs to 'hack' the PSP to let linux be installed on it
[02:50] <Genfoo> wb, ubuntulog
[02:50] <Genfoo> er
[02:50] <Genfoo> ubuntu
[02:50] <Genfoo> :)
[02:50] <Genfoo> I hope linux will someday run on the PSP
[02:51] <we2by> how do I install Ubuntu via net install??
[02:51] <cold> hey ubuntu detects a printer on a usb and has a driver etc, but every time I try to print the printer isn't reacting
[02:51] <MadPirateBippy> Uhhhh...guys, I'm setting this stuff up, and I have to choose between a two and a three button mouse...and I have a puck moust.
[02:51] <starscalling> hey
[02:51] <MadPirateBippy> What do I do? Any suggestions?
[02:51] <starscalling> anyone got a upgrade link from breezy to dapper?
[02:51] <NegativeSpace> Okay I've downloaded the latest Java SDK: I try and compile a file in ScITE and it tells me: "sh: javac command not found"
[02:51] <NegativeSpace> SciTE*
[02:51] <starscalling> or can i just change sources or somethiung?
[02:51] <we2by> how do I install Ubuntu via net install??
[02:52] <starscalling> *something
[02:52] <nickrud> we2by, it's not really supported, but some people claim to have done it. google for debootstrap, netinstall, ubuntu, those type of things
[02:52] <gleesond> I have no idea where to start for this question... I have a usb device that is used for puting digital audio on to my MD player... I can see the device when I lsusb but I don't know how to get the audio stream to go to the dicice
[02:52] <Coag> starscalling: from experience
[02:52] <Coag> upgrading does not work, or didn't work for me
[02:52] <V4Vendetta> MadPirateBippy~ 3 button
[02:52] <Coag> I'd reccomend backing up the home drives, wiping and reinstalling dapper
[02:52] <SpookyET> How do you change the priority of a procedss?
[02:52] <gleesond> s/dicice/device
[02:52] <Genfoo> we2by, its not worth it
[02:53] <we2by> ok
[02:53] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, puck moust?
[02:53] <polpak> SpookyET, man nice

[02:53] <SpookyET> I love Monad.   Everything can be guessed.
[02:53] <Genfoo> lol
[02:54] <nickrud> guessed by those in the know

[02:54] <V4Vendetta> Coag~ it's not out till next friday
[02:55] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, if it's a two button, choose two button and 'emulate 3 button' (thats pressing both at the same time) if it's a mac, I have no clue
[02:55] <Coag> oh ok
[02:55] <NegativeSpace> Okay I've downloaded the latest Java SDK: I try and compile a file in SciTE and it tells me: "sh: javac command not found"

[02:56] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, cd to the dir you downloaded the sdk to, then: sudo aptitude install java-package && make-jpkg <package downloaded && dpkg -i sun*deb
[02:56] <johnno> I try to join #remote-exploit and it says i need to be identified, I registered last night but i forgot my password

[02:56] <Coag> what does that have to do with #ubuntu
[02:56] <MadPirateBippy> Okay, new screen, new question: what resolutions/video modes should I pick?
[02:56] <MadPirateBippy> How can I find out which one I need?
[02:56] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, I had that as a substitute in xchat, and screwed it up. correct line follows:
[02:56] <Coag> maddler: whichever you like best
[02:57] <johnno> well there are heaps of people in here and i thought you'd be nice enough to help
[02:57] <Coag> ask in #freenode or something
[02:57] <johnno> ok thankyou

[02:57] <nickrud> sudo aptitude install java-package ; fakeroot make-jpkg <package you downloaded> ; sudo dpkg -i sun*deb
[02:57] <SpookyET> renice <number> -p <pid>
[02:57] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Thanks dude.
[02:58] <ddonky> MadPirateBippy - do you have the manual for the monitor? it will list all the modes and stuff
[02:58] <MadPirateBippy> Nope.
[02:58] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, it is freaking simple, some wise dudes made it so for us
[02:58] <heyjoe2> installer36: thanks
[02:58] <MadPirateBippy> I got an old monitor and computer for free, so I got jack.
[02:58] <MadPirateBippy> But, it's free, so I can't really gripe.
[02:59] <Installer36> heyjoe2 does that make any sense to you
[02:59] <NegativeSpace> nickrud I'm exceptionally stupid, so things that are freaking simple for me... aren't.
[02:59] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, after you do the dpkg -i , then sudo update-alternatives --config java , and select the sun one
[02:59] <Installer36> Me too
[02:59] <heyjoe2> installer36: just reading it now
[02:59] <V4Vendetta> java version "1.5.0_05"
[03:00] <V4Vendetta> works the best on ubuntu so far.
[03:00] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, the best way to know is to google your monitor, and get the exact horizsync & vertrefresh
[03:00] <MadPirateBippy> nick: I'm having a hard time with that.
[03:00] <MadPirateBippy> I have a 17 inch Apple Studio Display
[03:00] <heyjoe2> installer36: im at a loss to understand it
[03:00] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, I've had fair luck googling various numbers on the back
[03:00] <heyjoe2> installer36: anyway, gotta go to work
[03:00] <MadPirateBippy> which seems to be the name of a good dozen monitors, all of which are newer than mine.
[03:00] <heyjoe2> maybe later someone can help me?
[03:00] <Alos> hi again, in posible to have all the permissions on unbuntu
[03:00] <MadPirateBippy> I'll give that a go, thx
[03:01] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, that's gotta be available on apple.com somewhere
[03:01] <Installer36> heyjoe 2> it is what ddonky was talking about
[03:01] <zoexii> hey, howdy, hellow... what is an easy way to create a .iso cd image file from an actual CD??   I cannot find options in k3b or gnomebaker.   Is there a simple command line?
[03:01] <V4Vendetta> since dapper is so close to coming out can i upgrade now?
[03:01] <Hobbsee> zoexii: in k3b, it's called an image
[03:01] <ddonky> Installer36 - did he get it to work
[03:01] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, probably more ignorant. Stupid people never say they're stupid ;)
[03:01] <Hobbsee> !tell V4Vendetta about upgrade
[03:02] <V4Vendetta> Hobbsee~ i know how.. i'm asking is it safe yet
[03:02] <Hobbsee> V4Vendetta: it can be, depends on the day
[03:02] <zoexii> Hobbsee, It's called an image anyplace.  what menu is it under in k3b?
[03:02] <V4Vendetta> Hobbsee~ hmm.... i guess i might as well
[03:03] <Hobbsee> zoexii: burn cd image - it's right there when you start it
[03:03] <zoexii> Hobbsee, I can find "burn an image"  but not "create cd image"
[03:03] <Ohm> Hi guys
[03:03] <Hobbsee> zoexii: yeah, that's it
[03:03] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, badly phrased. replace ignorant with unknowledgeable, please
[03:03] <Ohm> How Can I show my picture in GAIN INTERNET MESSENGER?????
[03:03] <Installer36> ddonky . No but I gave him a addy to what you were talking about...step by step..with Mac
[03:04] <zoexii> Hobbsee, right, but I believe that it is the opposite of what I want to do.  I want to start with a CD and end with an image, not start with an image and end with a CD...
[03:04] <eletido> Ohm, its an option in your account settings
[03:04] <HymnToLife> Ohm> drop the caps please
[03:04] <Hobbsee> zoexii: as in, copy the cd, into an image file?
[03:04] <zoexii> Hobbsee, yes, that is exactly what I want to do.
[03:05] <eletido> Ohm, tools, account, modify one of your accounts or create a new one. then there is an option to open buddy icon.
[03:05] <jonolson> Ohm, Look in the "accounts" button, and click on the account and hit edit.  It's there ;)
[03:05] <Hobbsee> zoexii: i'm guessing you'll have to copy the cd to your hard drive, then burn to an image
[03:05] <moonlite> when playing games often find myself not being able to press all the buttons i want to simultaneously (ie go left, run and jump at the same time). Is this a problem with my keyboard or in software?
[03:05] <V4Vendetta> upgrading to dapper, *prays*
[03:05] <Ohm> I will try it
[03:05] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Well, either way, I may be testing your theory: what's fakeroot?
[03:05] <zoexii> Hobbsee, yeah, so I need to know how to copy it to my harddrive.
[03:05] <ddonky> Ohm - run gaim and then ctrl+A to open accounts, then click modify on each account, it's in there, the option to upload a pic
[03:06] <Hobbsee> zoexii: using konq/nautilus?
[03:06] <Hobbsee> zoexii: i havent found a quicker way than that, if it's a data cd
[03:07] <ruzgar> i have a fat32 partition i can write it with root user but i cant give write permission from gnome gui is there a command for that
[03:07] <zoexii> Hobbsee, Nautilus probably,  I don't want to simply copy the folders though, I want to create a .iso file... an exact duplicate
[03:07] <ruzgar> my part. name is hda3
[03:07] <esli_> alguem ae fala portugs???
[03:07] <V4Vendetta> !po
[03:07] <ubotu> V4Vendetta: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:07] <esli_> sou do brasil.. alguem a ???
[03:07] <mitch_> ops
[03:08] <Hobbsee> zoexii: what file type is on the cd now?  you'd create the ISO from the folders on your hard drive
[03:08] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, packages must be installed by root (who you are, temporarily, while you use sudo), and expect to be made by root
[03:08] <ruzgar> is there a guide for learning permisson
[03:08] <esli_> to saindo...
[03:08] <zoexii> Hobbsee, wow, right click in Nautilus... haha am I dumb.  That was way easier than I was expecting it to be....
[03:08] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, but, sometimes you need to fake out the package builders, so some developers made fakeroot, so it's easy for us casual users.
[03:09] <moonlite> esli_: #ubuntu-br?
[03:09] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Konsole didn't like that one bit, and said the command doesn't exist. Egad!
[03:09] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, in the particular case of java, the java install provided by sun writes directly to /etc, which is a bad thing.
[03:10] <Hobbsee> zoexii: hehe.  i dont use nautilus anyway, so i wouldnt konw
[03:10] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, fakeroot intercepts those writes, and <somehow, this is where the dev's made it easy>
[03:10] <nickrud> encapsulates them in the deb that make-jpkg creates.
[03:10] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, which you install with sudo
[03:14] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, which command ;)
[03:15] <Makura> Why is it that my first attempt at booting up Ubuntu always ends up with an error/kernel panic/freeze, but my second attempt always works?  I thought it was a coincidence at first, but now it's getting annoying.  The errors are always different too.
[03:15] <psusi> Makura, bad hardware?
[03:15] <NegativeSpace> nickrud It didn't like fakeroot, so I ignored that step. Everything carried on fine. I tried SciTE again and it still falls over when trying to compile. Boo.
[03:15] <Makura> psusi: How would I find out?
[03:15] <psusi> Makura, try running memtest86 for an hour or two
[03:15] <pragun> i have an ati radeon x600xt and i had everything installed fine but suddenly after rebooting the whole graphics business pooped out on me. now glxgears says 194 fps instead of 4,000~ fps. any ideas on how to fix this?
[03:16] <cafuego> psusi: I second that opinion
[03:16] <Makura> psusi: Alright, I will
[03:16] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, make-jpkg actually completed without fakeroot?
[03:16] <Makura> psusi: Does memtest86 come default or do I have to go download it?
[03:16] <psusi> Makura, you have to boot into it... it's on the cd
[03:17] <Makura> psusi: Sorry, newbie to Linux. =\
[03:17] <NegativeSpace> nickrud No, I skipped that entire line, went on to sudo dpkg -i sun*deb, which worked fine.
[03:18] <psusi> Makura, it doesn't really have anythign to do with Linux, it's just a handy dandy memory test utility that ubuntu includes on the cd because it's so handy
[03:18] <pragun> could there be something wrong with opengl? between the messups i had downloaded pong2 and xscorch
[03:18] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, then, if that deb was good, do sudo update-alternatives --config java, it should be the third or fourth option
[03:18] <pragun> that was before i restarted. however, before that i had had ubuntu install some updates but hadnt restarted yet
[03:18] <Makura> psusi: Still, I didn't know about it.  Does it matter what CD? Does it have to be the LiveCD?
[03:19] <psusi> Makura, I believe it is on the setup cd as well
[03:19] <Makura> psusi: Okay, how would I boot to it?
[03:19] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Yeah I did that, no problem. Load up SciTE and it falls over. Eclipse still breaks when I try to create a new project, too.
[03:19] <psusi> actually... it is installed to your hard drive by default too
[03:19] <moonlite> isn't it also in the gru menu of a default installation?
[03:19] <moonlite> grub menu
[03:19] <psusi> Makura, reboot your computer and at the grub prompt, hit escape... last item on the menu should be memtest86
[03:19] <Makura> psusi: Thanks. =] 
[03:20] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, then, please paste update-alternatives --list java to a paste bin
[03:20] <pragun> okay, so its either opengl or ati drivers that have messed up. can anyone at all help me?
[03:21] <MadPirateBippy> Hey guys, I'm lost again. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=43128
[03:21] <NegativeSpace> nickrud You want me to paste the results of update-alternatives?
[03:21] <MadPirateBippy> That's my monitor- what to I choose when configuring my xserver?
[03:21] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, that will give me an overview of your java environment
[03:21] <pragun> firegl control doesnt recognize my x600xt anymore
[03:22] <pragun> it just says "unknown" instead
[03:22] <jonolson> brb
[03:22] <pragun> hello?
[03:23] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Okay, I have: /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.0
[03:23] <NegativeSpace> ; /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/bin/java and /usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun/bin/java
[03:23] <MadPirateBippy> n/m, I got it
[03:23] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, if you choose 3 (sun), you should be good to go (if the deb you installed was good)
[03:23] <Coag> where is a site I can browse some desktop widgets?
[03:23] <Coag> I'm using compiz or metacity
[03:24] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Heh, I did. Maybe SciTE and Eclipse are messed up.
[03:25] <lampshade> how can I check to see if dma is currently enabled on drives?
[03:25] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, Maybe. Depends on how you installed everything, before you got java hooked into ubuntu.
[03:25] <lampshade> I believe it is with hdparm but I don't know what to look for, my output doesn't say yes or no
[03:27] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Well I've reinstalled Eclipse a few times now, before and after installing Java and the errors are always the same. As for SciTE, I can't seem to even setup the JDK.
[03:27] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, you've installed the jre, not the sdk --> /usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun/bin/java
[03:28] <Managu> lampshade: sudo hdparm <drive name>
[03:28] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Yeah it's weird, I did download and, well, I THOUGH I'd installed the JDK, but it's not there. I definitely downloaded the JDK, and followed Sun's installation instructions.
[03:28] <Staz>  Hey I get "A disk read error occurred" when I choose WINXP from GRUB :(
[03:28] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, I don't write java (or anything) I missed that
[03:28] <NegativeSpace> thought*
[03:28] <Staz> Any ideas how to fix it>
[03:28] <lampshade> Managu, yeah I know but what should it say.  Mine doesn't say DMA enabled or DMA not enabled.  It doesn't mention dma
[03:28] <MadPirateBippy> Eclipse is damn nice once you get it working, though
[03:29] <NegativeSpace> MadPIrateBippy I prefer IntelliJ, personally.
[03:29] <MadPirateBippy> I'm re-starting OneFish.... keeping my fingers crossed
[03:29] <Managu> lampshade: When I run it, with /dev/hda as my drive name, I get a "using_dma = 1" about halfway down the output
[03:29] <lampshade> hmm
[03:29] <MadPirateBippy> It helps that my ex is one of the guys writing Eclipse, so whenever I have a bug or a problem, I can just go poke him and it gets fixed....was also nice living with a hardcore kernel hacker. My machine always ran great :)
[03:29] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, in the dir where the sun sdk is,    fakeroot make-jpkg <sunfile> && dpkg -i <sunsdk>.deb
[03:30] <lampshade> hmmm mine doesn't say anything like that
[03:30] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Okay I'll give that a go.
[03:30] <MadPirateBippy> Okay, that didn't work.
[03:30] <edude05> Hi everyone
[03:30] <edude05> I need some help building NDIS
[03:30] <MadPirateBippy> My x server is now disabled.
[03:30] <ArthurB> Hi, I have a bug with apt-build in dapper, typing "apt-build --install blah" (wrong syntax intended) produces a segfault
[03:31] <pinpoint> does root exist in ubuntu
[03:31] <Hobbsee> !tell pinpoint about root
[03:31] <pinpoint> or is sudo just a sub
[03:31] <ArthurB> anyone can confirm ?
[03:31] <Managu> pinpoint: yes, but by default, there is no password.  Sudo is the preferred method for doing stuff
[03:32] <Xenguy> pinpoint: sudo -i (and sudo -s) is useful
[03:32] <Managu> ArthurB: maybe join #ubuntu+1 for Dapper discussions?
[03:32] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, I'm assuming you already have java-package installed
[03:33] <pinpoint> thx
[03:33] <NegativeSpace> nickrud You know, I'm assuming I do, too. But I don't know.
[03:33] <edude05> I'm on 5.04 and and a PPC arch and I have the kerne source installed
[03:33] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, if you have make-jpkg, you do. doh
[03:33] <Managu> edude05: ndiswrapper?
[03:34] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Boy do I fell embarrassed.
[03:34] <edude05> Managu, Yeah
[03:34] <NegativeSpace> feel*
[03:34] <nickrud> MadPirateBippy, the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log has the best info on your failed X
[03:34] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, all good?
[03:34] <Managu> edude05: presuming that you've read the standard bit on it.  What's the trouble?
[03:34] <NegativeSpace> nickrud I don't have it. How can I acqure it?
[03:34] <edude05> hold on Ill gice you th error
[03:34] <NegativeSpace> acquire*
[03:35] <nickrud> sudo aptitude install java-package
[03:35] <] BreliC[> anyone here using a WinTv PVR150 with IVTV drivers?
[03:35] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, haven't really been following along, eh ;p
[03:35] <NegativeSpace> Couldn't find any package matching "java-package".  However, the following
[03:35] <NegativeSpace> packages contain "java-package" in their description:
[03:35] <NegativeSpace>   sun-j2re1.5
[03:35] <NegativeSpace> nickrud I did warn you I was stupid.
[03:36] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Is that okay?

[03:36] <yakk> I've got dapper crashing for me
[03:37] <yakk> :(
[03:37] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, actually, that leads me to believe you should have a working java
[03:37] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, what does java -version in a terminal tell you
[03:37] <Managu> edude05: why don't you pastebin all the errors?
[03:37] <edude05> Good idea
[03:38] <NegativeSpace> nickrud 1.5.0_05
[03:38] <NegativeSpace> nickrud It looks like it's there.
[03:39] <NegativeSpace> nickrud But that's the JVM and JRE, dunno about SDK.
[03:39] <NegativeSpace> JDK*
[03:39] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, um, I needed to install a sun java deb real quick :)
[03:39] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Heh. I appreciate your help dude.
[03:40] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, yeah, that's right. I'd remove all the java stuff you installed that didn't come from ubuntu, and start from scratch
[03:40] <edude05> Managu, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9988
[03:40] <NegativeSpace> nickrud How would I go about doing that?
[03:41] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, I wouldn't have a clue, how did you install it?
[03:41] <Managu> edude05: my first instinct is: are you compiling this on an Intel or AMD based PC?
[03:41] <NegativeSpace> nickrud I should probably say that I only installed Linux earlier today for the first time.
[03:41] <edude05> Managu, PPc
[03:41] <edude05> AKA mac
[03:41] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, no problem. I had that day once too
[03:41] <kditty> i have a newb question here, really newbie ;]  i downloaded thunderbird, and decompressed it to my temp folder and i cant figure out how to install it
[03:42] <Managu> edude05: yeah, see, ndiswrapper is only for x86 based machines
[03:42] <edude05> ...
[03:42] <NegativeSpace> nickrud You know, I've downloaded the JRE about four times and installed it at least three different ways, including changing global variables and stuff, I justdon't know how to do anything.
[03:42] <edude05> Oh yeah.... because the drivers are X86'd aren't they
[03:42] <edude05> FSCK
[03:42] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Egad.
[03:43] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, that's what ubuntu is for. It is supposed to make all that global variable stuff go away, cuz it manages it for you
[03:43] <Managu> kditty: happen to recall the filename extension of what you downloaded?
[03:43] <NegativeSpace> nickrud That makes me wonder what the hell I was doing earlier.
[03:43] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, operant training :)
[03:43] <kditty> thunderbird-1.5.tar.gz
[03:44] <AngryElf> ubuntu isn't "seeing" my ipod.......in the past it's automatically recognized it when i plug it in
[03:44] <NegativeSpace> nickrud I think I broke Ubuntu.
[03:44] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Heh.
[03:44] <AngryElf> what should i do?
[03:44] <kditty> managu, i think mozilla-installer-bin is the file i need to use to run the install, am i wrong?
[03:44] <edude05> Managu, Is ther anything I can do to get my DWL-G122 to wokr
[03:44] <MadPirateBippy> I have a question. I'm configuring my xserver, I'm at the blue screen bits.
[03:45] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, I cannot begin to count the times I reinstalled linux my first few months :) You'll have it easy, you will be able to count
[03:45] <MadPirateBippy> How do I select a * on the option I want?
[03:45] <kditty> its in my tmp folder, i wasnt sure where to save or extract files to
[03:45] <Managu> kditty, couple of thoughts.  First, Ubuntu probably has Thunderbird packaged, and unless you've got a reason to use the newest version, you'd probably be better off with the package
[03:45] <nalioth> MadPirateBippy: space bar
[03:45] <Xenguy> !tell kditty about apt-get
[03:45] <daneturner> AngryElf: lspci at command line with iPod plugged in
[03:45] <Managu> edude05: I really don't really know anything about macs, but my guess is that you're out of luck =(
[03:45] <NegativeSpace> nickrud I think I may be reinstalling tomorrow. Heh heh.
[03:45] <jerrod> how can I share an .avi file from an ubuntu laptop to a windows xp desktop?
[03:46] <AngryElf> daneturner, it sees my ieee controler but not the ipod
[03:46] <heyjoe2> can anyone help me-my sound juicer application isnt working
[03:46] <Zenethian> Urr, is there a reason why Alt-Fx or Control-Alt-Fx isn't changing virtual consoles for me?
[03:46] <heyjoe2> it wont let me extract files
[03:46] <Xenguy> kditty: try using synaptic also
[03:46] <Managu> kditty: if you do want to install from the tarball, you've almost certainly got the right filename.  Might want to run it with sudo, e.g. "sudo /path/mo\zilla-installer-bin"
[03:46] <kditty> ok, im just so used to windows
[03:46] <Xenguy> kditty: you don't want to install TB from source...
[03:46] <daneturner> AngryElf: can you rule out hardware problems?
[03:47] <kditty> well i checked under internet, where xchat and firefox and gaim are listed, but no thunderbird
[03:47] <Xenguy> kditty: use a 'package' (.deb file) instead
[03:47] <AngryElf> daneturner, it's chargine now through the ieee port, so i'm guessing that rules out hardware probs
[03:47] <AngryElf> *charging
[03:47] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, after you do your reinstall, ask around here for some help with your /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:47] <Xenguy> kditty: run synaptic and install from there - it's easy
[03:47] <kditty> ok, so then should i just delete this un tar'd file and the tar file also?
[03:47] <daneturner> kditty: dpkg -l '*thunderbird*' on command line
[03:48] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Okay dude, will do.
[03:48] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, see you around
[03:48] <MadPirateBippy> 'What command do I use in the shell to bring up the GUI?
[03:48] <Managu> jerrod: happen to have them networked?
[03:48] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Dude, thanks for your help -- much appreciated.
[03:48] <Xenguy> kditty: I would ditch the tarball, yes
[03:48] <kditty> ok thanks
[03:49] <polpak> kditty, yeah, just delete those files. You can either get it from synaptic or you can just  sudo apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird
[03:49] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, hey I didn't chase you back to windows: I count that as a win ;)
[03:49] <jerrod> Managu: yea, i think i need to use samba. right?
[03:49] <Xenguy> kditty: even easier than synaptic, just do: sudo apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird
[03:49] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Well, I'm dual booting at the moment... just don't tell anyone.
[03:49] <polpak> kditty, this is ubuntu.. you don't have to go and download things off of websites to install software
[03:49] <daneturner> AngryElf: does iPod connect over usb?  oops.  then use lsusb instead of lspci.  what does that output show?
[03:49] <kditty> i wonder if it will be under add applications
[03:49] <polpak> kditty, probably
[03:50] <Xenguy> kditty: you could try that too
[03:50] <kditty> ok, i know how to use that
[03:50] <nickrud> NegativeSpace, I've always been dual boot capable. I do play games now and then.
[03:50] <dgriffin> i'm completely new to ubuntu and i'm trying to install some packages with synaptic but i am constantly getting a notice that dependancies aren't installable...what gives?  gdm-themes, digikam, the list goes on
[03:50] <NegativeSpace> nickrud Heh, totally. Okay I'm out -- once again, thanks.
[03:50] <Xenguy> !tell dgriffin about repos
[03:50] <Managu> jerrod: likely (groans).  I'd definitely see if you can get everything working from within nautilus (sp?) first, though:
[03:50] <Xenguy> e/a
[03:50] <farous> dgriffin: enable extra repos
[03:50] <Xenguy> gah
[03:50] <kditty> i just installed ubuntu 5.10 today, and only just now got my wireless card working. ubuntu is the only distro that auto detects my card but it had the channel wrong. that took me about 2 hours to figure out
[03:51] <Managu> jerrod: e.g. share a folder on the xp machine with write permissions, and then try to find it with places->network servers->windows network
[03:51] <polpak> dgriffin, first I'd recommend just running sudo apt-get update.. If that doesn't fix the problem then you can try enabling the multiverse and universe repos
[03:51] <Managu> kditty: it gets easier with practice.
[03:51] <Ramnath> linux is much different than windows
[03:51] <dgriffin> universe isn't enabled by default?
[03:51] <polpak> dgriffin, no
[03:51] <Zenethian> Is there something I have to do to enable virtual terminal switching with the F keys?
[03:51] <dgriffin> ah, ok...thanks
[03:52] <Ramnath> different is the sense that trying to get things to run is a pain in the ass
[03:52] <farous> Zenethian: ctrl alt F will do it fine
[03:52] <Zenethian> it doesn't.
[03:52] <Madpilot> hi all
[03:52] <Managu> Zenethian: shouldn't be.  It all works fine for me.  Only thing I can think of off the top of my head is that maybe some X client you're running, or have run, grabbed the keyboard and didn't release it properly.
[03:52] <farous> hi Madpilot
[03:52] <Zenethian> weird.
[03:52] <Zenethian> that would make me mad
[03:53] <d> alguem do brazil ai?
[03:53] <AdmiralCrunch> just dist-upgraded (on dapper) and now I have a disk error upon startup aka can't get to grub
[03:53] <daneturner> Ramnath: yes, pain in the ass.  but you're driving a tank now, not a sedan.  if you learn the extra complexities you'll be able to take advantage of the power
[03:53] <Zenethian> I think my control key is messed up
[03:53] <Zenethian> hrm
[03:54] <kditty> ok under add applications i found it but it says its unavailable and most likely not available for my platform
[03:54] <Managu> Zenethian: hardware failure could definitely cause problems :-D
[03:54] <suture> How do I set what the default video player is?
[03:54] <hikenboot> hello all---it looks like my xen kernel doesnt recognized boot=/dev/sda1 as a valid partition or somthing because on boot it says to check the boot= line of my menu.lst.. my default kernel recognizes it fine ...does this indicate that somehow ide isnt supported in the kernel or the ext3 file system
[03:54] <kditty> The application can not be found in your archive. This usually means that it is not available for your hardware plattform.
[03:54] <kditty> thats what it tells me
[03:54] <buba> nas
[03:54] <kditty> maybe it just didnt come on the distro cd?
[03:54] <Zenethian> Managu: actually it seems to work OK.  But hitting Control-Alt-F1 when konsole is up gives me some goofy VT100 characters.  Wacky.
[03:54] <buba> ahhhhh
[03:54] <buba> vale
[03:54] <hikenboot> or am i missing somthing simple?
[03:55] <hikenboot> my relavant boot line is module          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-rc5 root=/dev/hda1 ro console=tty0
[03:55] <Managu> Zenthian: odd.  Personally, I'd kill the running xserver (and everything else...) with ctrl-alt-backspace, and see if that fixes the problem
[03:55] <Managu> hikenboot: whoa, /dev/hda1 or /dev/sda1?
[03:55] <d> to com uns probleminhas aqui
[03:55] <daneturner> hikenboot: you mean your root= line?  or your root (hd0,0) line?
[03:56] <buba> vaya kernel mas capullo
[03:56] <CryoTox> Anyone know of a flash creator for Linux
[03:56] <MadPirateBippy> CryoTox: Gimp has a good animation suite.
[03:56] <MadPirateBippy> Dont know if it's flash, per se, but it's good.
[03:56] <blanky> hey guys it's not possible to install three distros on one hd is it (using the same swap, suse fedora and ubuntu)
[03:56] <johnnybezak> hey guys i'm running dapper and checkinstall is segfaulting, is there another way to create .deb's?
[03:56] <Ramnath> warcraft3 still doesn't work even though i got wine
[03:56] <CryoTox> MadPirateBippy: For flash?
[03:56] <cedriczg> Hi, I'd need some help on the synaptic pakage manager
[03:56] <Ramnath> i pop the cd in and nothing
[03:56] <MadPirateBippy> Blanky: Yes, it is.
[03:56] <johnnybezak> Ramnath: cedega or just wine?
[03:56] <hikenboot> ah ok...so stupid thanks i put it on the wrong line ...sorry to bug you all with such a simple stupidity
[03:57] <Ramnath> wine
[03:57] <blanky> MadPirateBippy, really?! :D
[03:57] <MadPirateBippy> Cryo: Probably. Check out www.gimp.org
[03:57] <daneturner> Ramnath: whine
[03:57] <blanky> I just thought there was a problem with something about max partitions or something
[03:57] <johnnybezak> Ramnath: that's prolly you're problem. get cedega
[03:57] <Ramnath> great
[03:57] <cedriczg> Does someone now why my files from /var/lib/apt/lists disapear?
[03:57] <MadPirateBippy> Blanky: I know someone who has RedHat, Suse, and Debian on his laptop
[03:57] <cedriczg> And thus my Synaptic doesn't work...
[03:57] <johnnybezak> MadPirateBippy: what's the point
[03:57] <blanky> MadPirateBippy, really? Okay then I'm going to do it too :D
[03:57] <MadPirateBippy> Cryo: Gimp saves in an amazing number of formats.
[03:57] <cedriczg> Can someone help me?
[03:58] <Managu> cedriczg: sounds really odd, not really much to go on there
[03:58] <MadPirateBippy> Johnny: the point is, he could do it. It was just a fun thing.
[03:58] <CryoTox> bleh. brb
[03:58] <johnnybezak> MadPirateBippy: haha ok
[03:58] <daneturner> looking for suggestions on adding a CA Cert to Firefox system-wide.
[03:58] <cedriczg> Managu, I thought that my problem was the sources.list file, but I think it's other thing
[03:59] <AdmiralCrunch> just dist-upgraded (on dapper) and now I have a disk error upon startup aka can't get to grub
[03:59] <Managu> cedriczg: first thought is, is /var or some subdirectory mounted in a wierd way?
[03:59] <cedriczg> Managu, What other thing may cause the Synaptic not to start ok?
[03:59] <suture> How do I set what the default video player is?
[03:59] <Ramnath> this is as fun as an aneurysm
[03:59] <cedriczg> Managu, I don't think so?
[04:00] <cedriczg> Managu, What do you mean?
[04:00] <cedriczg> Managu, It's in my linux partition...
[04:00] <Managu> cedriczg: why you run Synaptic, i.e. from system->administration->synaptic..., a busy-wait cursor comes up.  What happens next?
[04:01] <cedriczg> Managu, I have a strange file called "lock" in the /var/lib/apt/list that has 0bytes !?
[04:01] <Managu> cedriczg: oh, that's important.  Running any versions of synaptic right now?
[04:01] <cedriczg> Managu, W: No se puede leer la lista de paquetes fuente http://archive.ubuntu.com breezy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No existe el fichero o el directorio) .....
[04:01] <CarlFK> what is the command to view a pdf?
[04:02] <wonder> hey, i have got problems with mounting a ntfs partition
[04:02] <Emmerac> Does anyone know of a ubuntu live CD that comes with AirSnort?
[04:02] <green-earz> hi all. whats the channel name for ubuntu off topic .
[04:02] <wonder> it's just accessable by root
[04:02] <daneturner> CarlFK: xpdf or evince
[04:02] <cedriczg> Managu, You mean what version am I running?
[04:02] <Managu> cedriczg: ugh, never learned that language.
[04:02] <wonder> when i want to chmod the mountdir it says permission denied read only fs
[04:02] <cedriczg> Managu, (my linux is in spanish :P)
[04:02] <wonder> how would i mount it in a way my normal user could access it?
[04:02] <CarlFK> daneturner: thnaks.  thought it was xpdf, but that isn't installed.  is that normal?
[04:02] <FunnyLookinHat> Emmerac, if you are looking for a good CD for cracking and whatnot, chek out http://remote-exploit.org/
[04:03] <nickrud> cedriczg, you can safely delete that if you don't have synaptic, aptitude or an apt-get session running
[04:03] <Managu> cedriczg: as nickrud suggests, delete the "lock" file, and try running synaptic again
[04:03] <cedriczg> Managu, it means that the pakages from the source .... can't be read. And that /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_main_binary-i386_Packages doesn't exist
[04:03] <daneturner> CarlFK: not normal for a full Hoary desktop install.  Not sure about Breezy.  Do you have evince?
[04:03] <cedriczg> Managu, i'll try that
[04:03] <CarlFK> daneturner: yes.  it is a dapper install.  ill report it
[04:04] <cedriczg> Managu, thank you
[04:04] <Managu> cedriczg: np, hope it works
[04:05] <Managu> wonder:  How are you attempting to mount the ntfs filesystem?
[04:06] <FunnyLookinHat> Sorry guys, the link I posted earlier was bad.  Use http://www.remote-exploit.org/index.php/BackTrack for a good cracking/security live CD
[04:06] <daneturner> no takers on my CA Cert question?
[04:06] <wonder> Managu: mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1
[04:06] <cedriczg> Managu, That didn't work
[04:06] <Managu> daneturner: just random speculation: does the system keep some repository of certificates somewhere below /etc?
[04:07] <kditty>  sudo apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird didnt work
[04:07] <Managu> wonder: man mount.  I think you want to add something like "-o umask=0"
[04:07] <kditty> said i may need to update apt-get
[04:07] <FunnyLookinHat> I know ther eis a package for CA certifertcates someewhere
[04:07] <FliesLikeALap> http://www.noisebot.com/images/potato-thumb.gif
[04:07] <Managu> cedriczg: how 'bout "sudo apt-cache update"
[04:07] <FliesLikeALap> damnit wrong chan sorry
[04:07] <cedriczg> Managu, I can manage Synaptic to work if I do a "refresh", but that means to download many files
[04:07] <cedriczg> Managu, I tried that
[04:07] <wonder> Managu: thx, yes i wanted that :)
[04:07] <Managu> wonder: np
[04:08] <cedriczg> Managu, It worked, but then again when I reboot I have the same problem
[04:08] <Managu> cedriczg: wow.  Where is /var mounted?
[04:08] <jerrod> managu: when i try to log in from the xp machine to the ubuntu server, it wont
[04:08] <daneturner> Managu: FunnyLookinHat: ca-certificates is the package suggested by folks on #debian
[04:08] <Managu> ack, too many lines with my name in them!
[04:08] <cedriczg> Managu, What do you mean about where?
[04:08] <MadPirateBippy> Dumb question: I need to restart, how do I do that?
[04:08] <FunnyLookinHat> daneturner, yes, that's it.  I don't know if ubuntu repos have it though
[04:08] <cedriczg> Managu,  It is mounted in the partition where I have ubunntu installed
[04:09] <FunnyLookinHat> You might need to enable backports or whatever that is called
[04:09] <Managu> jerrod: how bout going the other way?
[04:09] <daneturner> yup, they do.  ca-certificates creates /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
[04:09] <Managu> cedriczg: on the hard drive?
[04:09] <daneturner> but Firefox doesn't seem to use it
[04:09] <FunnyLookinHat> daneturner, if you are using it for WPA encryp that's what you want, I used it for my schools WPA encrypted network
[04:09] <cedriczg> Managu, yes
[04:09] <jerrod> managu: let me try it
[04:09] <cedriczg> Managu, Sorry the sudo apt-cache update doesn't work
[04:10] <Managu> cedriczg: ok, lemme go look at a man page, sec
[04:10] <daneturner> trying to deploy locally created CA Cert to linux lab computers
[04:10] <cedriczg> Managu, I manage to repair Synaptic doing sudo aptitude update;
[04:10] <cedriczg> sudo aptitude upgrade;
[04:10] <cedriczg> sudo aptitude install
[04:11] <Ramnath> cannot load any applets
[04:11] <Managu> cedriczg: careful, "apt-get" and "apt-cache" are different commands
[04:11] <daneturner> Adding a CA Cert to firefox is easy _per_user_...
[04:11] <Managu> cedriczg: try "apt-get update"?
[04:12] <Managu> cedriczg: whoops, guess that was my mistake ^_^
[04:12] <cedriczg> Managu, Well that command is the same as doing refrersh on the Synaptic
[04:13] <daneturner> Ramnath: you're a curious one.  are you asking a question?
[04:13] <cedriczg> Managu, But as I told you it take some time and I have a conection that has a limit of !Gb per month :(
[04:13] <Managu> cedriczg: ok.  So once you do that, Synaptic works properly?
[04:13] <cedriczg> Managu,  1Gb per month
[04:13] <Ramnath> the wine control panel says that it cannot load any applets
[04:13] <cedriczg> Managu, yes
[04:13] <Managu> cedriczg: I understand.  One thing at a time :-)
[04:13] <cedriczg> Managu, but then again after rebooting the same problem
[04:13] <jonolson> cedriczg, Do you have the choice to change that?  Sounds horrible.
[04:14] <charles`> New Dells come with the option of integrated soundblaster audigy sound.  Can anyone confirm that this works on Ubuntu? I can't find it in the matrix of compatibility on Alsa's site, but I think this is fairly new
[04:14] <cedriczg> jonolson, change what? my conection?
[04:14] <jonolson> cedriczg, Make it so their isn't a cap on your bandwidth.
[04:14] <nickrud> charles`, you could try the live cd, it nearly always matches the install cd for hardware
[04:14] <Managu> cedriczg: trying to think what would possibly zap the lists there
[04:15] <cedriczg> jonolson, It would be necessary to pay much more :P
[04:15] <charles`> nickrud: unfortunately I can't, I'm wondering whether to upgrade on a system I'm about to purchase
[04:15] <jonolson> cedriczg, Ah ok. haha. :P
[04:15] <charles`> nickrud: I want to make sure it will work before I buy it
[04:15] <Managu> cedriczg: could you run "mount" and post the output on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ ?
[04:15] <nickrud> cedriczg, will someone else let you piggyback on their service occasionally?
[04:15] <nickrud> charles`, it's free
[04:15] <kditty> i updated aptitude and cant find an english thunderbird on there
[04:15] <charles`> nickrud: before I buy the system
[04:15] <nickrud> charles`, sorry, yeah ;)
[04:16] <cedriczg> Managu, ok
[04:16] <charles`> nickrud: which definitely isn't free =)
[04:16] <nickrud> charles`, I just saw buy, and stopped reading
[04:16] <cedriczg> nickrud, piggyback? what meant that?
[04:16] <nickrud> cedriczg, use
[04:16] <Toma-> hey, just got a new 64bit cpu, and installed it in my 32bit system that has ubuntu... the 32 bit flavor. is there a simple way to make it deal with the 64bit-ness without a re-install?
[04:16] <charles`> so.. anyone know? or know where to look?  I did a pretty comprehensive google search to no avail
[04:17] <Toma-> im getting a bunch of errors, like VGA not loading aswell
[04:17] <cedriczg> nickrud, I understand your "solution" but I don't think so. I can manage to download the apt-get aptdate, but it is a bit bothering doing it every time
[04:18] <Managu> charles`: chances are it'll work, most of the integrated sound cards are just some flavor of AC'98.  That said, I haven't any experience
[04:18] <GTroy> I need an extreme amount of help here!!!
[04:18] <nickrud> cedriczg, I think I see. You are trying to use synaptic to get some specific packages off the net, but synaptic is trying to get a bunch you don't want, right?
[04:19] <GTroy> I pray someone knows how to help me this time
[04:19] <jonolson> GTroy, Just ask the question ;)
[04:19] <V4Vendetta> yeaa baby
[04:19] <V4Vendetta> pitt panthers for the win
[04:19] <cedriczg> nickrud, right. You understood me.
[04:19] <Managu> nickrud: seems cedriczg's problem (which he had diagnosed before he came here) is that apt isn't properly caching the packages list for him
[04:19] <mrnicksgirl> I'm looking for the MD5 sums of the latest live and install CDs .. I can't find it on the site???
[04:19] <GTroy> If I screwed up xorg.conf so bad I can't enter terminal on startup what do I do?
[04:19] <Managu> nickrud: or I could be wrong =p
[04:19] <jonolson> GTroy, Xorg has nothing to do with your term.
[04:20] <V4Vendetta> yea, nothing
[04:20] <Madpilot> mrnicksgirl, look for a file called MD5SUM, should be in the same directory you found the ISOs in
[04:20] <GTroy> I see bootup then blank screen
[04:20] <cedriczg> Managu, Well I can only manage that after every refresh wich takes ages :P
[04:20] <nickrud> cedriczg, ok. Those things synaptic is trying to get are updates, for bug fixes, or for security fixes. You can ignore them, if you want
[04:20] <jonolson> GTroy, Just make a backup of your xorg config...if it fails just switch back to your first xorg config.
[04:20] <Toma-> !easysource
[04:20] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[04:20] <daneturner> GTroy: if X is really the problem, delete xorg.conf and try without it.
[04:20] <GTroy> jonolson: did that
[04:20] <MadPirateBippy> jonolson- how do you do that?
[04:21] <jonolson> MadPirateBippy, Cp?  I think.  *is tired*
[04:21] <GTroy> ok, I'll *squirm* use knoppix
[04:21] <kditty> ok, i need to install thunderbird, but aptitude doesnt have an english version and the add applications doesnt have an install either, whats a feller to do?
[04:21] <daneturner> GTroy: can you boot to console 9single-user mode)?
[04:21] <mrnicksgirl> Mad - thanks
[04:21] <GTroy> I've got no command line to fix things
[04:21] <daneturner> oops. console (single-user mode)
[04:21] <GTroy> not from ubuntu
[04:21] <theeo123> good evening people
[04:21] <Managu> kditty: (a) did you install with english as the default language/etc?
[04:21] <kditty> yes
[04:22] <kditty> everything is in english
[04:22] <Managu> kditty: (b) have you tried synaptic? (System->administration->Synaptic package manager)
[04:22] <MadPirateBippy> g'night guys, after fighting with this thing for 10 hours, I'm going to bed.
[04:22] <kditty> and it has about 6 languages, greek, portuguese etc
[04:22] <cedriczg> nickrud, but if I don't do it I can't see the packages to install a NEW progrram I want
[04:22] <Managu> theeo123: evening
[04:22] <theeo123> I'm in need of help yet agian , I'm guessign you're al lgetting tired of me by now *L*
[04:22] <jonolson> GTroy, Did you try booting the "recovery" kernel?  I'm not sure if it's particularly advisable as it drops you into root.  But all you need to do is erase xorgconfig, so it shouldn't be too hard...
[04:22] <cedriczg> Managu, I pasted the mount result on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9989
[04:22] <kditty> trying now
[04:22] <daneturner> GTroy: boot to single-user mode from the boot loader, before Ubuntu gets rolling
[04:22] <GTroy> daneturner: how do I do that?
[04:23] <GTroy> jonolson: never tried using recovery kernel
[04:23] <jonolson> GTroy, Or single user mode, which daneturner is talking about..That's what I meant.
[04:23] <Managu> cedriczg: ok, nothing too funky there.  Next thought... one second =)
[04:23] <theeo123> I recently switched over from Windows, i had a HUGH (150 gig +) e-book collection, reading PDf, no prob, HTML no prob,  what i need to know is how to view or at least convert chm and .Lit
[04:23] <nickrud> cedriczg, yes you can. It's called putting a package on hold, so synaptic will pretty much ignore it
[04:23] <Lakini> is there a way that I can add a picture to a Nautilus window, like is seen on the (xp) My Pictures folder, etc? Not a pattern, but a picture
[04:23] <daneturner> GTroy: after BIOS messages disappear, you see GRUB bootloader message.  Press ESC key and choose single-user
[04:24] <cedriczg> nickrud, And how is that done?
[04:24] <GTroy> daneturner: s' what I needed
[04:24] <kditty> grek, korean. portuguese, turkish, norwegian are my options
[04:25] <Managu> kditty: ouch.  Where did you find them?
[04:25] <kditty> synaptic package manager
[04:25] <nickrud> cedriczg, I use aptitude for that, but I don't recommend that way. Give a moment to see how synaptic does it
[04:25] <Managu> kditty: yes, but under which category?
[04:25] <kditty> i did a serach for thunderbird
[04:25] <cedriczg> nickrud, ok, thank you
[04:25] <theeo123> So does anyon have an idea on how to read, orm aybe convert & then read .LIt and .CHM files ?
[04:26] <mrnicksgirl> I'm excited to install ubuntu ... been getting annoyed with windows as a web development environment.
[04:26] <Klyick> anyone have any experience with ubuntu sound issues?
[04:26] <Managu> cedriczg: I'm out of good ideas.  If what you say is true, you're somehow losing some part of your apt cache on every bootup.  I'd look through the bootup files for suspicious stuff, but that'll take a while
[04:27] <greenwom> lo all, I've got a odd internet problem.  I can view the ubuntuforums and other sites but gmail, yahoo, google.com are no goes????
[04:27] <daneturner> Klyick: what's the question?
[04:27] <Managu> kditty: ok.  lemme see.  What's in your sources.list file?
[04:27] <do_me_nice> http://pastebin.com/595733
[04:28] <do_me_nice> i need to edit a partians size
[04:28] <do_me_nice> which command would do that...
[04:28] <cedriczg> Managu, maybe I can backup the new files I have now on /var/lib/apt/lists, reboot now and see what happens
[04:28] <greenwom> lo?
[04:28] <theeo123> Bummer :(
[04:28] <Managu> cedriczg: that's likely to work -- at least until packages change
[04:28] <Managu> greenwom: evening
[04:28] <Klyick> daneturner: I've got a inspirion 3500 laptop, and alsa doesn't seem to think a soundcard is there
[04:28] <daneturner> do_me_nice: parted, gparted, cfdisk, kparted
[04:28] <cedriczg> Managu, yes :P
[04:28] <Zenethian> alright, fixed that problem (xkb bug) now on to another.  How do I disable that god awful system beep?
[04:28] <Zenethian> I don't want beeps coming out of my soundcard!
[04:29] <cedriczg> Managu, I'll try it now and tell you the result
[04:29] <kditty> sorry managu, i wouldnt even know how to check my sources.list file
[04:29] <kditty> i dont even know what it is
[04:29] <Managu> Zenethian: hammer + arm -> speaker?
[04:29] <cedriczg> Managu, thank you very much, and see ya
[04:29] <Managu> cedriczg: g'luck
[04:29] <Zenethian> Managu: what?
[04:29] <cedriczg> nickrud, thank you to you too ;)
[04:29] <cedriczg> bye
[04:29] <ttread> greenwom, do you get an error message?
[04:30] <Managu> kditty: in synaptic, go back to the categories view, and find the "email" category
[04:30] <nickrud> cedriczg, darn
[04:30] <theeo123> Can anyoen even point me i nthe right direction maybee?
[04:30] <daneturner> kditty: /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:30] <Managu> Zenethian: if you take a hammer to you speakers, the noise will stop
[04:30] <Zenethian> yeah
[04:30] <Zenethian> that isn't a very good solution
[04:30] <Zenethian> :P
[04:31] <daneturner> Klyick: lspci on command line, any audio lines?
[04:31] <lcore> theeo123: gnochm
[04:31] <Managu> Zenethian: *Shrug* If you just don't like the beep, you might look at System -> preferences ->sound
[04:31] <kditty> ok, im in sources.list but there is a whole bunch of stuff
[04:31] <GTroy> daneturner, jonolson: problem fixed!!!
[04:31] <Lakini> does anyone know of a way to add a background image to a nautilus window, instead of a plain colour or a pattern?
[04:31] <Phr0stByte> Anyone with Dapper on a laptop have a VERY slow trackpad?
[04:32] <Managu> Lakini: I could be wrong, but I doubt nautilus supports that
[04:32] <Zenethian> Managu: can you tell me where that menu would be located at in Blackbox?  :P
[04:32] <theeo123> lcore cool thanks,   gettign that now :)  any idea's for the .LIT files ?
[04:32] <Lakini> hmmm, bummer
[04:32] <Zenethian> Managu: it seems to be independant of the session manager I use.
[04:32] <daneturner> GTroy: and the sun shined upon them all :)
[04:32] <Klyick> daneturner: Yes, it gives me Neomagic Audio
[04:32] <Managu> Zenethian: errm, rightio.  Let me see if I can find it in short order
[04:32] <Zenethian> hehe
[04:32] <Zenethian> I've searched the web a bit
[04:33] <GTroy> daneturner: now back to dual monitor on e-17
[04:33] <kditty> also, thunderbird isnt in my synaptic pack manager managu
[04:33] <JaGWiRE`> hey guys, I just tried a ubuntu install, it failed, wanting some help
[04:33] <Managu> Zenethian: gnome-sound-properties?
[04:33] <JaGWiRE`> I got the same result as when I tried to install fedora core (suse didn't give me this result) (suse worked properly..)
[04:33] <JaGWiRE`>  after the ubuntu install was done, I got an error and couldn't load into the x gui environement when it tried the first boot
[04:33] <daneturner> kditty: what about mozilla-thunderbird
[04:33] <JaGWiRE`> any ideas? i can give system stats
[04:34] <kditty> nope
[04:34] <JaGWiRE`> bleh, just a quick copy and paste.. : my syystem stats are :  1 gb ram, dfi lan party ultra nf4, athlon 3200+ venice, sapphire radeon x800xl, seagate 300 gb 7200.9, western dgitail 250 gige sata1
[04:34] <do_me_nice> http://pastebin.com/595740
[04:34] <hikenboot> well the problem wasnt the improper line putting boot=...instead it leads to another question...what part of the compile process creates the /lib/modules directory ...mine seems to be missing
[04:34] <do_me_nice> any help here ^^
[04:35] <kditty> just a bunch of language packages, not even full installs
[04:35] <JaGWiRE`> lol this channels great, everyone is asking fdor help
[04:35] <JaGWiRE`> :p
[04:35] <hikenboot> the kernel sub directory i mean
[04:35] <daneturner> JaGWiRE: tried the generic 'vesa' video driver yet?
[04:35] <JaGWiRE`> dane, I have no idea
[04:35] <kditty> my sources.list file says Uncomment the following two lines to fetch updated software from the network, should i do that managu?
[04:35] <JaGWiRE`> i don't boot into gnome, I get stuck in bash
[04:35] <JaGWiRE`> and as a linux noob, I have little knowledge of any bash CMDS
[04:35] <JaGWiRE`>  my linux book I ordered won't arrive until monday :(
[04:36] <Managu> kditty: errm, could you paste your sources.list file into http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/?
[04:36] <daneturner> JaGWiRE: ok.  edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf (you can use vi right :)
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`>  dane, I only know vi is a text editor
[04:36] <ttread> JagWirE, you will probably need to edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf from the console
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`> I know nothing else.
[04:36] <kditty> sure
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`>  hm
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`>  is there any real easy way?
[04:36] <cedriczg> back again
[04:36] <jerrod> managu: when i try to login from my ubuntu comp to the xp comp it will let my view it, but when i try to login to the ubuntu computer it kicks out my password
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`> hmm
[04:36] <cedriczg> Managu, Well it seems it still works
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`> heh
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`> this is going to sound ridiculous
[04:36] <jerrod> managu: view a text doc
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`> can somone pm me the exact cmds I need to type
[04:36] <cedriczg> Managu, the files are still there
[04:36] <JaGWiRE`> so I can print them out?
[04:37] <JaGWiRE`> :P
[04:37] <Managu> cedriczg: cool =)
[04:37] <cedriczg> Managu, but I'm not confident it will work for long
[04:37] <Managu> jerrod: that should be enough to let you copy the file you want, no?
[04:37] <JaGWiRE`> i know this is a lot to ask, but I know nothing about the command line interface of bash, or how to use VI or any text editor
[04:37] <daneturner> JaGWiRE: sure.  send output of this command to us:  grep 'Driver' /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:37] <Managu> JaGWiRE`, ouch =(
[04:37] <JaGWiRE`> hmm
[04:37] <JaGWiRE`> dane
[04:37] <JaGWiRE`> damn, I don't have a second pc with me
[04:37] <JaGWiRE`> fucking a :P
[04:37] <JaGWiRE`> let me go see if I can find another computer
[04:37] <cedriczg> Managu, Because I had once the Synaptic working this way for some rebootings and then the same thing
[04:37] <jerrod> managu: i want to send a file from the ubuntu comp to the xp computer (his computer has a dvd burner :)
[04:38] <kditty> managu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9990
[04:38] <cedriczg> Managu, but it is a little conquest
[04:38] <Managu> ugh, there's my name again!
[04:38] <kditty> sorry
[04:38] <Managu> jerrod: should be just drag and drop, on whichever computer is working
[04:39] <cedriczg> Managu, Can some ot the upgrades that suggests the ubuntu (when I start an internet conection) do some collateral efect of this matter?
[04:39] <Managu> kditty: got that sources.list file open in an editor?  Take the '#' off the beginning of lines 3 and 4.  Get rid of the first space too, so that they start with "deb"
[04:39] <kditty> ok
[04:40] <vejan> why would firefox not go to sun.com but other sites are ok?
[04:40] <Managu> cedriczg: I doubt it.  I don't really know what the problem is for you.  The only real thing you'd need to worry about is a large change to the package list, which probably won't happen very often
[04:40] <cedriczg> Managu, For example now it suggests me to upgrade the libvte-common and the libvte4, which I don't know what are
[04:40] <Managu> kditty: save.  Close synaptic and restart it
[04:40] <JaGWiRE`> okay, I am logging in on my noteobok now
[04:40] <beeblebrox> hey gurlz
[04:40] <Managu> cedriczg: why update them if you don't need to?  Just put them on hold
[04:40] <Klyick> I'm afraid that I 'm stuck there
[04:41] <beeblebrox> whast's everyone talkn bout ?
[04:41] <nickrud> cedriczg, they are the guts to gnome-terminal.
[04:41] <daneturner> JaGWiRE: still there?  ready?
[04:41] <JaGWiRE2> dane
[04:41] <JaGWiRE2> let me boot it up
[04:41] <cedriczg> Managu, I once updated the kernel for ex.
[04:41] <JaGWiRE2> shall I read to you the error I get?
[04:41] <Managu> kditty: when you get synaptic restarted, click "reload"
[04:41] <JaGWiRE2> it's quite long if I check the lgo or whatever its called
[04:41] <cedriczg> nickrud, And may I update them?
[04:41] <daneturner> no thanks
[04:41] <Managu> cedriczg: that shouldn't matter
[04:41] <daneturner> get to a CL
[04:41] <theeo123> beeblebrox, wel lim' trying to find a way to wither View or convert .lit files   there was some talk about smashing speakers with a hamemr too
[04:41] <JaGWiRE2> okay dane, just a moment
[04:41] <JaGWiRE2> rebooting my rig
[04:41] <theeo123> in general fun stuff :)
[04:42] <beeblebrox> lol
[04:42] <JaGWiRE2> btw, thanks dane
[04:42] <beeblebrox> smashing speakers is awesomely fun
[04:42] <nickrud> cedriczg, if you want. I've been on low bandwidth before, sometimes I'd hold them.
[04:42] <cedriczg> Managu, ok. Than you a lot. Here as I said once I find real help :)
[04:42] <Managu> =)
[04:42] <JaGWiRE2> right now ubuntus loading :)
[04:42] <kditty> it gave me an error on load, is that normal?
[04:42] <kditty> it still let me in
[04:42] <cedriczg> nickrud, right. Thank you a lot to you too.
[04:42] <Managu> kditty: depends on the error.  PRobably not, but let's cross our fingers
[04:42] <kditty> hah
[04:43] <snooo> whats this about irc exploits? how do i connect via port 8001 in xchat?
[04:43] <kditty> well, its there
[04:43] <kditty> mozilla-thunderbird
[04:43] <Klyick> what can I do to diagnose alsa further
[04:43] <heyjoe2> anyone know any good wav to mp3 converters
[04:43] <heyjoe2> audacity aint working for me
[04:43] <JaGWiRE3> sorry about that, was ocnnected ot neighbors network
[04:43] <JaGWiRE3> im in bash
[04:43] <JaGWiRE3> or the CLI
[04:43] <Managu> kditty: good.  Sources.list is an important file in debian and in ubuntu.  You'll want to probably "uncomment" a few more of those lines as time goes on.  There's more information on the support pages at ubuntulinux.com
[04:43] <daneturner> grep 'Driver' /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:43] <theeo123> I worked at Ms for 2 years.... I'm on Linux for a reason *L*
[04:44] <chalcedony> lol theeo123
[04:44] <Managu> heyjoe2: L.A.M.E., perhaps?
[04:44] <kditty> thanks alot
[04:44] <kditty> i try to ask in forums too, to keep the load off of you guys, but you do a great job managu
[04:44] <Managu> kditty: now if only someone knew the answer to my question =D
[04:44] <Morfosomo> how can i change the current font size in nautilus?
[04:45] <hikenboot> can anyone tell me what part of the kernel compile process creates the /lib/modules directory?
[04:45] <beeblebrox> yay
[04:45] <kditty> whats your question?
[04:45] <daneturner> JaGWiRE, waiting on output of above command
[04:45] <heyjoe2> managu: i downloaded lame, but audacity wont recognize it, or is there an actual application called lame i can use?
[04:45] <JaGWiRE3> dane
[04:45] <beeblebrox> that's ignorance
[04:45] <JaGWiRE3> check pm
[04:45] <Managu> heyjoe2: errm, yes?  maybe?  I don't know
[04:45] <JaGWiRE3> output is given in pm
[04:45] <JaGWiRE3> daneturner
[04:45] <champ> what app do i need to untar and unzip and all that in linux?
[04:46] <daneturner> don't understand.  new to irc
[04:46] <Managu> I want to get sound out of Vmware and World of Warcraft (under Cedega) at the same time
[04:46] <FunnyLookinHat> How do I disable the power manager?
[04:46] <kditty> way above my head buddy
[04:46] <JaGWiRE3> daneturn, check your private message
[04:46] <JaGWiRE3> the flashing box that says jagwire
[04:46] <JaGWiRE3> jagwire3 probably
[04:46] <JaGWiRE3> click on it
[04:46] <kditty> but didnt you try asking on ubuntu forums?
[04:46] <ardchoille> daneturner, JaGWiRE3 if either of you aren't identified to NickServ, you may not see the PM text
[04:46] <daneturner> looking...
[04:46] <Managu> heyjoe: apt-cache show lame
[04:47] <daneturner> not seeing...
[04:47] <JaGWiRE3> ard, is it complex to iden
[04:47] <JaGWiRE3> do I have to reg?:
[04:47] <JaGWiRE3> yeah, I am getting an error
[04:47] <daneturner> just paste the f**ker
[04:47] <Managu> heyjoe2: and ignore the part about lame not being an mp3 encoder.  GNU's not unix, after all.
[04:47] <JaGWiRE3> telling me I need to be idented
[04:47] <daneturner> :)
[04:47] <theeo123> sadly I've been unable to find the e-books i want in anything other than .lit :(
[04:47] <ardchoille> you have to register and then identify, not hard at all. /msg nickserv help  will tell you what you need to know
[04:47] <JaGWiRE3>  grep: /etc/x11/xorg.conf: no such file or directory.
[04:47] <JaGWiRE3> thats my response
[04:47] <kditty> managu, do i also remove programs from synaptic?
[04:47] <heyjoe2> managu: sorry?
[04:48] <Managu> heyjoe2: apt-cache show lame
[04:48] <daneturner> typo! X11 please
[04:48] <JaGWiRE3> dane
[04:48] <JaGWiRE3> join channel jagwire
[04:48] <Managu> kditty: yeah, you can use synaptic to remove packages as well
[04:48] <JaGWiRE3> okay, then I will type response i nthere
[04:48] <heyjoe2> managu: now what do i do
[04:48] <beeblebrox> dane you drunkn
[04:48] <ardchoille> JaGWiRE3: that was an awesome idea :)
[04:48] <beeblebrox> dane you drunkn
[04:48] <beeblebrox> ?
[04:48] <JaGWiRE3> lol ard, thanks
[04:48] <kithe> hi, I just reinstalled my linux and after I installed to nvidia drivers I can't use my LCD monitor in X... anyone know what this might be becouse of?
[04:48] <beeblebrox> is the monitor attached?
[04:49] <Managu> heyjoe2: lame is a command-line mp3 encoder.  I don't happen to know the magic incantation off the top of my head... man page perhaps?
[04:49] <Klyick> the line I get from lspci is
[04:49] <kithe> ofcourse... I'm using it now...
[04:49] <Managu> kithe: do you have 2 monitors attached to the card?
[04:49] <Klyick>  Multimedia audio controller: Neomagic Corporation NM2200 [MagicMedia 256AV Audio]  (rev 20)
[04:49] <champ> what app do i need to untar and unzip and all that in linux?
[04:49] <snooo> hey, the software updater popup is refusing to do anything when i press install on new updates, how do i sort that?
[04:49] <kditty> eh, i guess it wouldnt hurt to leave evolution mail on here since i dont even know what im doing
[04:49] <kithe> Managu: yeah, the LCD that is DVI and a CRT on the VGA socket
[04:50] <heyjoe2> managu: http://pastebin.com/595751
[04:50] <Managu> kithe: nvidia doesn't play well with multi-monitor setups under linux.  You'll have to fool around with the config files by hand a bit.  If you're up for it, take a look at the docs in ... I think /usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernel-(something)
[04:51] <theeo123> champ it's called archive manage,r & should already be isntalled
[04:51] <Managu> heyjoe2: sec
[04:51] <champ> theeo123: thank you
[04:51] <kithe> Managu: ah okay thanks mate
[04:51] <Managu> heyjoe2: thanks =p
[04:51] <heyjoe2> managu: no thank u
[04:51] <theeo123> champ also do a search for "ubuntu automatix" on google,  it covers a lot of the initial "everyone shoudl do this" type steps, for you
[04:52] <theeo123> champ like instlaling video codecs & media players etc.
[04:52] <snooo> can anyone help me?
[04:52] <Lakini> aha! found how to change the nautilus background!
[04:52] <ardchoille> !automatix
[04:52] <ubotu> I heard 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.
[04:52] <theeo123> snoo the answer is 42... always 42
[04:52] <Lakini> drag the image into the nautilus window, hold Alt and click set as Background, sets the file manager background, not the desktop :D
[04:52] <Managu> heyjoe2: http://pastebin.com/595757
[04:53] <snooo> i'm sure automatix is going to be a headache by the time dapper comes around
[04:53] <Toma-> !easyubuntu
[04:53] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[04:53] <Madpilot> snooo, it already is :P
[04:53] <ardchoille> snooo: hell, automatix is a headache now
[04:53] <snooo> i remember upgrading from hoary... had a bunch of backports installed. had to sit prodding apt-get for ages
[04:53] <theeo123> i had no problems with it personally at least,
[04:53] <snooo> i used to to install a few things....
[04:53] <snooo> :-/
[04:54] <snooo> ppl in the forums seemed very positive about it
[04:54] <heyjoe2> managu: ok, what do i do with that very long document
[04:54] <snooo> but if its fucking crap then mods should say something
[04:54] <Xnos> hi... someone knows a good translator tool ...
[04:54] <Xnos> ?
[04:54] <Managu> heyjoe2: it's the man page for lame.  It tells you how to use lame to convert wav files to mp3 files
[04:54] <Toma-> Just installed a new mobo and 64bit cpu to my system. will i have to re-install? ive already tried a dpkg-reconfigure -a yeh i still cant get ndiswrapper, my VGA card or my tvcard to load.... might be the PCI slot handler in the bios... hmmm.
[04:54] <nalioth> snooo: language please
[04:54] <cyberatom> anyone dualboot ubuntu with windows but on second HDD?
[04:54] <nalioth> !offtopic
[04:54] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[04:55] <heyjoe2> managu: so is lame all command line, im not confident with command line, id rather use an application, or configure lame for an app
[04:55] <snooo> apologies
[04:55] <Managu> heyjoe2: that's right, it's command line
[04:55] <Toma-> heyjoe2, what are u trying to do?
[04:55] <heyjoe2> Toma-: convert wav to mp3
[04:55] <heyjoe2> and audacity wont recognize my lame
[04:55] <Toma-> audacity
[04:56] <heyjoe2> and grip wont work
[04:56] <Toma-> oh :D
[04:56] <snooo> can anyone help me with my prob anyway?
[04:56] <Toma-> tried xmms?
[04:56] <Toma-> xmms-lame is all you need
[04:56] <Toma-> !info xmms-lame
[04:56] <Toma-> damn it
[04:56] <edude05> Lol, I like the word dual too much
[04:56] <Xenguy> heyjoe2: try this on 1 of the wav's: lame -h -V 4 x.wav x.mp3
[04:57] <Managu> snooo: try killing the popup, and running "sudo apt-get upgrade" from a command-line?
[04:57] <heyjoe2> !info xmms-lame
[04:57] <erick> Having some trouble getting evolution connector to work with exchange; anyone familiar that could help?
[04:57] <Toma-> heyjoe2, theres an xmms plugin that uses lame. not in the repos tho :/
[04:57] <heyjoe2> Toma-: can i get it from synaptic
[04:57] <Toma-> heyjoe2, doubtful...
[04:57] <heyjoe2> argh
[04:58] <heyjoe2> anyways, ill be back to sort it out later. gotta go
[04:58] <cge> How can I get epiphany to save tar.gz/iso/etc files by default instead of opening them?
[04:58] <Klyick> can anyone help with a laptop sound issue?
[04:58] <Managu> Klyick: you listed the lspci listing before, what was it?
[04:59] <Klyick> Multimedia audio controller: Neomagic Corporation NM2200 [MagicMedia 256AV Audio]  (rev 20)
[04:59] <Managu> ooh, neomagic.  I thought they made video cards
[04:59] <Klyick> they do
[04:59] <Klyick> i think
[05:00] <ubuntu> greetings...........How would one change the "speed" of the scroll wheel? (number of lines skipped when rolled)
[05:00] <Managu> klyick: What happens to be the problem?
[05:00] <JaGWiRE3> okay, I need to know how to install ati drivers on ubuntu
[05:00] <JaGWiRE3> i'm using vesa generic drivers now
[05:00] <JaGWiRE3> join #jagwire if you'll be kind enough to help me (Dont want to spam chan)
[05:01] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, you'll likely get more help by talking at large -- use http://pastebin.com/, etc for large posts
[05:01] <Klyick> Managu: There appears to be no sound card. No applications can find one, and the sound popup on the desktop says the same.
[05:01] <JaGWiRE3> heh
[05:01] <JaGWiRE3> i have another problem
[05:02] <JaGWiRE3> i have no intgernet connection
[05:02] <JaGWiRE3> must be aqn ethernet problem
[05:02] <JaGWiRE3> not on wireless.. hmm, i'm using the 2nd ethernet port Ibelieve, disabled the first
[05:02] <Managu> Klyick: The (essentially) definitive source is the ALSA project.  Here's what they say:"http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/index.php?vendor=vendor-Neomagic#matrix"
[05:02] <Managu> Klyick: long story short: ALSA (and hence, linux) doesn't support your sound card
[05:03] <JaGWiRE3> hmm
[05:03] <JaGWiRE3> i jsut stastically aasigned my ip, but stl lno luck
[05:03] <JaGWiRE3> have no clue what to do :P
[05:03] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, anything else on your local network?
[05:03] <JaGWiRE3> of courwse
[05:03] <JaGWiRE3> many other boxes
[05:03] <thompa> anyone know hot to speed up touchpad speed
[05:03] <Classic-> how much space need for ubuntu ?
[05:04] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, I'd start by trying to ping IPs
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> classic, 1.8 gb min i think or something
[05:04] <V4Vendetta> Classic-~ server or desktop install?
[05:04] <Classic-> server
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> mangu
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> t
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> thats what
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> weird
[05:04] <Classic-> also gui.
[05:04] <V4Vendetta> Classic-~ like 1.5gb i think
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> google works, must just be that one page
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> my mistake, sorry.
[05:04] <ubuntu> anyone know how to change the speed of the scroll wheel in gnome?
[05:04] <V4Vendetta> Classic-~ oh then, like 2.0gb +
[05:04] <thompa> me too
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> yeah, so I need hel pinstalling these nix drivers
[05:04] <Classic-> Install not be gui?
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> more a less, I need to be baby footed
[05:04] <V4Vendetta> wooo pitt panthers for the win
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> i'm using vesa generic now
[05:04] <JaGWiRE3> and I want to install these ati drivers
[05:05] <Classic-> Installer*
[05:05] <Klyick> Managu: Thanks for your help. At least I finally have a solid answer.
[05:05] <Managu> Klyick: sorry =(
[05:05] <Managu> Klyick: other options to look into are: oss sound drivers through 4front technologies
[05:06] <Managu> Klyick: they're commercial ($$) software, but they support a slightly different set of hardware than free drivers
[05:06] <JaGWiRE3> downloading ati-driver-installer-8.2.3.7-x86_64.run now
[05:06] <Classic-> Ubuntu Installer is not gui?
[05:07] <RageMax> nope
[05:07] <Managu> Klyick: it may happen that there are OSSfree drivers that support your soundcard even though there are no ALSA drivers (not real likely, but...).  Might be an avenue to look down
[05:07] <RageMax> it's relatively easy though
[05:07] <Classic-> And Ubuntu will run on p4 2.4ghz 256ddr,18gb harddisk, 3d geforce mx 4000 card.?
[05:07] <IdleOne> Classic-> yes it is . called Synaptic
[05:07] <amonroy> when I try to ssh to my ubuntu box I get this warning "Warning: Kerberos authentication disabled in SUID client" and it stays like that for ever. It was working fine before. What could it be?
[05:07] <JaGWiRE3> i just tried to open the .run file
[05:07] <amonroy> I tried rebooting the machine
[05:08] <JaGWiRE3> this is what i get
[05:08] <JaGWiRE3> "gedit was not able to automatically dfetect the character coding. Please, check that you are not trying to open a binary fiel and try against sleecting a character coding in the 'open file' (or open location') dialogue
[05:08] <Managu> amonroy: did you SUID root the ssh binary?
[05:08] <Managu> amonroy: or install it with that option?
[05:09] <conn> hi, if I retrieve a package from the repo as source, modify and compile, how do I create a .deb from it?
[05:09] <amonroy> Managu: not that I am aware of, I just installed ubuntu, it has been up for a few months, and now I get this error
[05:09] <Managu> amonroy: how odd.  Been hacked?
[05:10] <amonroy> Managu: it is possible I have been hacked, but how can I know?
[05:11] <Managu> amonroy: *shrug* I doubt it's happened.  Kinda like gremlins, the first person you blame when something mysteriously goes wrong
[05:11] <JaGWiRE3>  ah
[05:11] <JaGWiRE3> i feel so smart!
[05:12] <JaGWiRE3> i figured out how to get this going
[05:12] <JaGWiRE3> woot!! yeah!!
[05:12] <amonroy> Managu: I am able to log in directly on the machine
[05:12] <JaGWiRE3> how do i save my x window configuration file?
[05:12] <amonroy> but not via ssh
[05:12] <mrnicksgirl> trying to burn a CD of Ubuntu on  windows.... checksum was ok... it says ... :< says "Operation has failed" Reason: A generic error occurred
[05:12] <amonroy> Managu: what coould it be? or how should I check if sshd is running properly?
[05:13] <Managu> amonroy: it's a long shot, but perhaps remove the ssh packages (be sure to purge the config) and reinstall them?
[05:13] <amonroy> ugh, that sounds painful
[05:13] <eobanb> mrnicksgirl, that sounds like a problem either with your CD burning app, your CD drive, your media, windows, or the disk image you're burning :)
[05:13] <JaGWiRE3>  lol
[05:13] <JaGWiRE3> how do I run /usr/x11r6/bin/aticonfig
[05:14] <eobanb> mrnicksgirl, you could try re-downloading the disk image, using a different app to burn the image, using a different drive, or different media
[05:14] <JaGWiRE3> the ati instructions say to run it to configure driver
[05:14] <Managu> amonroy: shouldn't be too painful.  In Synaptic, select purge next to the openssh package; then apply.  Now select install next to the openssh package; apply
[05:14] <eobanb> and see if that helps.
[05:14] <mrnicksgirl> eobanb ... hehe.. what is it NOT ??? ... hmm... I'll try another program.
[05:14] <JaGWiRE3> but i don't know how to run it :|
[05:14] <eobanb> mrnicksgirl, it's not a problem with ubuntu itself
[05:14] <amonroy> ok, i'll try that. Thanks Managu.
[05:14] <Managu> amonroy: g'luck
[05:15] <JaGWiRE3> guys
[05:15] <JaGWiRE3> how do I run this?
[05:15] <Managu> JaGWiRE3: I'd strongly suggest being in single-user mode (or at least, not a GUI mode) to run that
[05:15] <green-earz> amonroy: a package that my be of help is aide. once you have ssh back up and running install aide and whacht to see if any thing get changed
[05:15] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, from a terminal, run "sudo telinit 1"
[05:16] <Madpilot> !tell JaGWiRE3 about ati
[05:16] <JaGWiRE3> mangu
[05:16] <JaGWiRE3> thanks, that just kicked me off
[05:16] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, note, this will kill anything you're running under X, so be careful
[05:16] <JaGWiRE3> feel good for yourself
[05:16] <JaGWiRE3> abuse an noob
[05:16] <JaGWiRE3> right now your sad piece of ass is probably laughing
[05:16] <JaGWiRE3> right?
[05:16] <Managu> jagwire3: it wasn't a prank
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> then why say it?
[05:17] <Managu> jagwire3: you should be in text mode now, no graphics, and there should be a prompt saying "login:"
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> yeah
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> oh crap, I was
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> i jsut exited it
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> i thought you were fucking with me
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> sorry dude
[05:17] <Managu> jagwire3: cause installing the ATI driver with graphics running is a BAD idea
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> no, I just installed thme, there was a gui installer
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> then they say something about aticonfig
[05:17] <petdance> howdy.  I'm lookin' for a good book.
[05:17] <JaGWiRE3> ugh, what do I do now?
[05:18] <Managu> petdance: Where The Sidewalk Ends, by Shel Silverstein
[05:18] <IdleOne> petdance>  the Bible?
[05:18] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, log in and run "telinit 3".  Or reboot
[05:18] <petdance> I had "the debian system/concepts and techniques", martin f. krafft recommended
[05:18] <JaGWiRE3> petdance, I jsut ordered running linux o'reilly, was recommended it, but hasn't shipped yet
[05:18] <JaGWiRE3> mangu, is that the bok he has the fuck off
[05:18] <petdance> Managu: I have two copies of it, plus the CD of Shel reading from it.
[05:18] <JaGWiRE3> poem
[05:18] <JaGWiRE3> i remember he has a poem or song called fuck em
[05:18] <JaGWiRE3> not fuck off, my bad
[05:18] <Managu> petdance: awesome!
[05:18] <IdleOne> JaGWiRE3>  language please
[05:18] <JaGWiRE3> mangu, once i'm in the bash shell (no gui) what do I do?
[05:19] <JaGWiRE3> sorrry idle, thats what shell siverstene called the song
[05:19] <JaGWiRE3> :P
[05:19] <Madpilot> petdance, is that the No Starch press Debian book?
[05:19] <petdance> y
[05:19] <Managu> jagwire: I'm a bit confused... I was under the impression that you're trying to install the ATI X server
[05:19] <JaGWiRE3> anyway mangu, i'm back in there, what am i doing
[05:19] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, have you already completed that step?
[05:19] <JaGWiRE3> no, I just installed ati drivers
[05:19] <JaGWiRE3> via the gui installer they gave me
[05:19] <JaGWiRE3> .run file
[05:19] <Madpilot> petdance, that's a fairly high-end book, not really for end users - or at least, there are far better books for folks who're just end users
[05:19] <JaGWiRE3> now I need to run aticonfig
[05:19] <antibus> re: question: when i type "localhost" in my web browser.. it takes me to 127.0.0.1... my own comp, is there a way to make another name like... "config" that will point to localhost/config/configfile.php              i asked before but i got disced.. not sure if anyone answered
[05:19] <IdleOne> JaGWiRE3>  theres alot of songs and poems that use that sort of language but we still dont use that language here :)
[05:19] <JaGWiRE3> according to there instructions
[05:20] <JaGWiRE3> yes idle, I apologize
[05:20] <JaGWiRE3> sorry :)
[05:20] <IdleOne> no problem dude
[05:20] <jerrod> managu: hey, thanx for the help i think i got it now
[05:20] <petdance> Madpilot: Great, that's what I want.
[05:20] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, ok.  If you're back in the graphics mode, then try "sudo /(path)/aticonfig"
[05:20] <Managu> jerrod: cool, hope it's all working =)
[05:20] <Madpilot> petdance, yeah, if you want to get into Debian packages & such, it's probably the book to get
[05:20] <JaGWiRE3> roger that maungu
[05:20] <JaGWiRE3> wish my book running linux would arrive laready
[05:20] <petdance> That's exactly what I'm looking for
[05:20] <JaGWiRE3> but they don't ship sat and sun
[05:20] <JaGWiRE3> so instead I have to bug you guys :P
[05:20] <petdance> I wanna know my package stuff.
[05:21] <Madpilot> petdance, OK, then have fun with it - it looks really good, just not stuff I need for myself
[05:22] <Managu> antibus: there probably is.  But, unless you're trying to set something up for a bunch of people, it's likely not worth the trouble
[05:22] <danny_osl> I'm having problems with my intel integrated graphics card (should be a gma900).  in /var/log/Xorg.0.log I see that direct rendering is enabled, but running glxinfo says that it is not
[05:23] <blrich> can somebody help? trying to get pygtk working. installed python-gtk2 (which put in python2.4.-gtk2) but when i go into python and 'import gtk' it complains and crashes out. something about trying to access X/xlib. installed python-xlib, problem still happens. anyone have any ideas?
[05:23] <JaGWiRE3> sudo /usr/X11R6/bin/aticonfig --initial
[05:23] <antibus> Managu, true
[05:23] <JaGWiRE3> gives me this:
[05:23] <blrich> i've searched the net, and can find nobody else with a similar problem, so it seems really weird. i am on kubuntu, could this be it, something blocking gnome/gtk things from working?
[05:23] <JaGWiRE3> error whiel loading shared libraries: libfglrx_pp.so.1: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory
[05:23] <Managu> antibus: the first thing that comes to mind is to set up a few extra names in /etc/hosts, and use apache virtual servers
[05:24] <Managu> antibus: err, apache virtual hosts
[05:24] <JaGWiRE3> okay, mangu
[05:24] <JaGWiRE3> ati says : #  Launch the Terminal Application/Window and run  /usr/X11R6/bin/aticonfig --initial to configure the driver.
[05:24] <JaGWiRE3> what exactly do I type in console?
[05:24] <JaGWiRE3> i'm stupid, sorry.
[05:24] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, Managu (2 A's)
[05:24] <JaGWiRE3> ah, my mistake
[05:24] <JaGWiRE3> i should just do Man and then tab
[05:24] <JaGWiRE3> Managu :P
[05:25] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, errm, ok.  How bout this: sudo ldconfig
[05:25] <JaGWiRE3> okay
[05:25] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, and then try "aticonfig" again
[05:25] <JaGWiRE3> done
[05:25] <JaGWiRE3> wait, what do you mean aticonfig?
[05:26] <JaGWiRE3> i typed /usr/X11R6/bin/aticonfig -inital and got same response as before
[05:26] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, hrmm, I see
[05:26] <danny_osl> another question: being new to ubuntu, I noticed I'm running kernel 2.6.12-*, but the most recent kernel-source package I can find is 2.6.11.  how can i recompile the current kernel?
[05:26] <crimsun> danny_osl: linux-source-2.6.12
[05:26] <axisys> looking for steps.. take a music from CD.. make it ringtone format
[05:26] <crimsun> danny_osl: we don't use the kernel-* naming scheme, we use linux-* instead
[05:26] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, being that I'm using a NVidia card, I'm sort of just guessing here.  What did you do to install the X drivers?
[05:26] <axisys> i can then send it as an attachment using sms/email to my phone
[05:27] <JaGWiRE3> ugh
[05:27] <eobanb> axisys, it depends on your model of phone and your carrier.
[05:27] <JaGWiRE3> here, want the ati link?
[05:27] <axisys> t-mobile w/ nokia
[05:27] <JaGWiRE3> https://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894&task=knowledge&folderID=27
[05:27] <JaGWiRE3> if you don't get directly to their page, it's under the ati instructions
[05:27] <eobanb> axisys, uhhh what sort of nokia? do you have a usb cable or does it have bluetooth or anything?>
[05:28] <axisys> no.. i will use sms
[05:28] <eobanb> okay.
[05:28] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, ok, I might as well peek
[05:28] <danny_osl> crimsun: so linux-2.6.12 will give me the source I want?
[05:28] <JaGWiRE3> Managu, to install the drivers, I just ran a .run
[05:28] <kjdis> Anyone know why I cannot unselect Video4Linux in my kernel config when I have made sure all children menu items are disabled?
[05:28] <eobanb> well i guess find some online mms service, axisys
[05:28] <danny_osl> er, linux-source I mean
[05:28] <JaGWiRE3> and did the gui installer (really basic)
[05:28] <axisys> i need to find out how to make a CD music to rington format
[05:28] <crimsun> danny_osl: linux-source-2.6.12
[05:28] <danny_osl> thanks
[05:28] <JaGWiRE3> tghen they say what i copy and pasted
[05:28] <danny_osl> maybe I'll find some graphics answers in there
[05:28] <eobanb> axisys, can the phone use mp3 files as ringtones?
[05:29] <axisys> not sure.. i guess that would be simpler
[05:29] <axisys> but not sure of the ringtone size limit
[05:29] <amonroy> Managu: ok, I uninstalled the ssh server from synaptic. In order to reinstall do I really need the CD?  I don't have it anymore, but it would be nice if I could just install ssh with an autodownload from the net... is there such an option?
[05:29] <eobanb> axisys, i'd google around for that.
[05:29] <Managu> amonroy: there is
[05:29] <axisys> eobanb: :-)
[05:29] <Managu> amonroy: you may need to pick your repositories
[05:29] <NickGarvey> amonroy: apt-get install sshd did it for me
[05:29] <JaGWiRE3> Managu, did you get to the page?
[05:29] <amonroy> Managu: thansk
[05:29] <Managu> JaGWire: cool.
[05:29] <NickGarvey> I have universe and multiverse enabled though
[05:29] <dampjam> amonroy: modify apt.conf and comment out the cd line, then run apt-get update
[05:30] <JaGWiRE3> lol damn i just want to get this working :S
[05:30] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, there's a lot of documentation there
[05:30] <jnev> does anybody know if dapper is stable enough to upgrade to?
[05:30] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, sec
[05:31] <Madpilot> !tell amonroy about ssh
[05:31] <amonroy> dampjam: where is apt.conf?
[05:31] <Managu> Jagwire, for instance: "If the ATI Proprietary Linux Driver was installed using either the Automatic or Custom options, then do the following: (1) Launch the Terminal Application/Window and navigate to the /usr/share/fglrx folder. (2) With super user permissions, enter the command "sh ./fglrx-uninstall.sh" "
[05:31] <IdleOne> jnev>  it will be reased mid april
[05:31] <IdleOne> !tell jnev  about flight4
[05:31] <dampjam> amonroy: I meant /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:31] <JaGWiRE3> lol huh mangu?
[05:32] <dampjam> I'm trying to build a program that has instructions for building on redhat and says I need to have glibc-devel and libuuid-devel to get the proper header files... I know I can do apt-get source libuuid, but is there a good way to sources so their headers are included by default?
[05:32] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, hrmm, maybe that's the wrong line
[05:32] <JaGWiRE3> i mean Managu
[05:32] <JaGWiRE3> the part i'm stuck at is the top (non custom driver installation)
[05:32] <JaGWiRE3> if you look at the last ss, it says something about running fglrxconfig
[05:32] <JaGWiRE3> and then below it is some more junk
[05:32] <JaGWiRE3> no idea what tto do there
[05:32] <suture> How do I get rid of a window border?
[05:33] <petdance> book ordered.  Thanks
[05:33] <JaGWiRE3> petdance, what book?
[05:33] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, well, have you tried running fglrxconfig?  ("sudo fglrxconfig"
[05:33] <JaGWiRE3> yeah
[05:33] <JaGWiRE3> i just uninstalled flgrx
[05:33] <JaGWiRE3> or whatever, as it stated
[05:33] <crimsun> dampjam: if you need devel packages for glibc and libuuid, you don't need libuuid source
[05:34] <dampjam> crimsum: then how do I install the devel packages?
[05:34] <amonroy> Managu, dampjam : i commented out the cd line in sources.list, but apt-get install openssh-server returns an error: Package not available (...)
[05:34] <crimsun> dampjam: just install build-essential and uuid-dev
[05:34] <Madpilot> !tell JaGWiRE3 about ente
[05:34] <Madpilot> !tell JaGWiRE3 about enter
[05:34] <amonroy> am I just missing the right repositories?
[05:34] <amonroy> if so, what are those repos and where should I add them?
[05:34] <petdance> "the debian system/concepts and techniques", martin f. krafft
[05:35] <IdleOne> !repos
[05:35] <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
[05:35] <dampjam> thank
[05:35] <dampjam> *thanks
[05:35] <Managu> amonroy, I'd suggest opening synaptic and selecting the "repositories" option
[05:35] <mrnicksgirl> my burn process failed... used another drive (external burner) and different program ... booo hooo :(
[05:35] <danny_osl> how does one check what package a file can be found in?  for example, if I'm missing some files, how can I determine what package I need to install to get it?
[05:35] <JaGWiRE3> Managu, I just installed fglrx as what yo upasted
[05:35] <JaGWiRE3> not sure what to do now, sudo fglrxconfig brings nothing
[05:35] <oklinux> how do I mount a slave hard drive ?
[05:35] <crimsun> danny_osl: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[05:35] <Managu> amonroy: settings -> repositories, even
[05:36] <JaGWiRE3> oh crap
[05:36] <JaGWiRE3> i wasn't suposed to uninstall that
[05:36] <IdleOne> danny_osl>  /msg ubotu  info filename
[05:36] <JaGWiRE3> damn i'm stupid as hell, eh
[05:36] <JaGWiRE3> now i'm going to try rew-installing it i guess
[05:36] <Managu> jagwire3: nope, my paste was wrong.  Run the installer again
[05:36] <Managu> jagwire3: sorry
[05:36] <amonroy> Managu: actually when I open synaptic I get a warning "W: Couldn't stat source package list http:/us.archive.ubuntu.com ...." but let me try your suggestion anyway
[05:36] <JaGWiRE3> no probably Managu
[05:36] <oklinux> trappist are you here ?
[05:37] <dunefan> evening!
[05:37] <IdleOne> !tell amonroy  about repos
[05:37] <NickGarvey> hello dunefan
[05:37] <JaGWiRE3> k
[05:37] <IdleOne> heya dunefan
[05:37] <JaGWiRE3> i just finished running the installer
[05:37] <danny_osl> I was hoping for a command-line ability
[05:37] <JaGWiRE3> it says run aticonfig in a console window again
[05:37] <JaGWiRE3> .. what now? :P
[05:38] <Managu> jagwire3: let's try "sudo fglxconfig"
[05:38] <dunefan> a question.....how do you install KDE in Ubuntu
[05:38] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, "sudo fglrxconfig" even
[05:39] <JaGWiRE3> Managu, that command does nothing
[05:39] <JaGWiRE3> and for the recommend, my ati installer doesn't show whats in the screenshots
[05:39] <JaGWiRE3> it says NOTHING about fglrxconfig, it says aticonfig instead of that
[05:39] <NickGarvey> dunefan: kubuntu
[05:39] <dunefan> lol
[05:39] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, errm, when you say it does nothing -- do you get any errors?
[05:39] <dunefan> besides that
[05:40] <NickGarvey> I use command line, no gui for me
[05:40] <cyphase> where are the Notes stored that you add to files via the properties window?
[05:40] <JaGWiRE3> yeah Managu
[05:40] <fami> Hi. Where can i find lastest-ubuntu.iso?

[05:40] <mattwestm> where is a release schedule?
[05:40] <Xenguy> !tell dunefan about kde
[05:40] <nalioth> fami: www.ubuntu.com/download
[05:41] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, ok, and this time, when you try running the suggested aticonfig command, what happens?
[05:41] <NickGarvey> !tell NickGarvey about kde
[05:41] <JaGWiRE3> same error
[05:41] <fami> nalioth: i meant snapshot
[05:41] <nalioth> mattwestm: releases occur every april and octoboer
[05:41] <JaGWiRE3> error while loading shared libraries, etc
[05:41] <nalioth> fami: cdimage.ubuntu.com
[05:41] <axisys> how do i convert ogg format to mp3?
[05:41] <axisys> may be with mplayer.. but how?
[05:42] <NickGarvey> axisys: mp3 is protected by thompson, its hard to find converts
[05:42] <NickGarvey> ers*
[05:42] <JaGWiRE3> Managu, I jsut cded into /usr/x11r6/bin and did ls, and I do see the aticonfig file
[05:42] <JaGWiRE3> the queston is how to run it?
[05:42] <fami> nalioth: which one?
[05:42] <Managu> jagwire3: just type "aticonfig" in a terminal window
[05:42] <fami> i want install it on HDD
[05:42] <fami> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ ?
[05:42] <nalioth> fami: the latest release is code-named "dapper" find a daily live or a daily install image
[05:42] <Managu> jagwire3, or rather "aticonfig --initial" if that what's suggested
[05:42] <JaGWiRE3> doesn't work Managu
[05:43] <JaGWiRE3> neither
[05:43] <JaGWiRE3> i get command not found
[05:43] <Managu> jagwire3: case is important, be sure you typed in the case correctly
[05:43] <JaGWiRE3> and if I sudo it, i get error whiel loading shared lbiraries: libfglrx_pp.so.l : cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory
[05:43] <JaGWiRE3> i did
[05:43] <kditty> ive got a really quick question anyone can probably help me with... while downloading, or copying files from backup cds from my windows disk, what folder do i place them in?
[05:43] <tonyyarusso> How to kill and respawn a virtual terminal (getty)?
[05:43] <cyphase> What does everyone think about having a little applet that pops up notifications that concern all ubuntu users?
[05:43] <kditty> i tried one folder and it said right access not granted or something
[05:43] <cyphase> for example..
[05:44] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, how bout "/usr/X11R6/bin/aticonfig --initial"
[05:44] <cyphase> nvm
[05:44] <cyphase> what am i thinking?
[05:44] <NickGarvey> axisys: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/mencoder.html
[05:44] <axisys> NickGarvey: so i can't convert ogg to mp3?
[05:44] <Petey123434> i just tried to upgrade to dapper, my computer froze, and when i rebooted i got a segmentation fault and it said /dev/sda1 does not exist ...........................???
[05:44] <NickGarvey> axisys: that might be what you are looking for after a skim over
[05:44] <cyphase> axisys, you can
[05:44] <JaGWiRE3> mopr Managu
[05:44] <winston> Does anyone here use ubuntu on an apple power pc?
[05:44] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, sorry, don't know "mopr"
[05:44] <LuisBG> winston, I do
[05:44] <cyphase> axisys, oh, with mencoder
[05:44] <JaGWiRE3> i get : "/usr/X11R6/bin/aticonfig: error while loading shared libraries: libfglrx_pp.so.l: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory
[05:44] <axisys> cyphase: using encoder like NickGarvey showing?
[05:45] <cyphase> axisys, i don't know
[05:45] <winston> LuisBG I have a problem booting when I'm not jacked into the net
[05:45] <axisys> cyphase: any other ways?
[05:45] <cyphase> axisys, i'd probably just use audacity
[05:45] <LuisBG> winston, wich problem?
[05:45] <axisys> let me try that
[05:45] <winston> I can only log in using terminal
[05:45] <kditty> can anyone answer that?
[05:45] <JaGWiRE3> god damn this is a load of bs
[05:45] <winston> the gnome wont boot up
[05:45] <kditty> would i just move the files from cd-rom to /home or what?
[05:45] <Petey123434> i just tried to upgrade to dapper, my computer froze, and when i rebooted i got a segmentation fault and it said /dev/sda1 does not exist ...........................???
[05:45] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, sorry, I'm out of ideas
[05:46] <winston> ie I get the "brown" screen but no window showing the booting of gnome
[05:46] <nalioth> Petey123434: please don't repeat
[05:46] <JaGWiRE3> Managu, you have read all the steps?
[05:46] <JaGWiRE3> :p
[05:46] <winston> no menus or bars or anything of that sort
[05:46] <Petey123434> nalioth, do you have any idea what the problem is?
[05:46] <Madpilot> Petey123434, for Dapper questions, try #ubuntu+1
[05:46] <winston> It happens regularly ie every time I'm not plugged into the adsl line
[05:46] <nalioth> Petey123434: i do not, but repeating once a minute isnt gonna bring anyone into the channel who does know any quicker
[05:47] <theskunk> nalioth, amen
[05:47] <JaGWiRE3> how woudl I go upon running fglrxconfig?
[05:47] <NickGarvey> audacity worked like a charm for me
[05:47] <Xenguy> kditty: you should store your data in your 'home' directory...
[05:47] <LuisBG> winston, that is really weird...if you wait long enough does it enter, might be waiting to sincronize clock with ntp or something like that
[05:47] <kditty> thanks
[05:47] <Xenguy> kditty: so /home/username
[05:47] <Managu> JaGWiRE3, I know that ATI vid cards are a pain to get running.  If it's any help, it appears there's a ubuntu package
[05:47] <kditty> /home/kditty/mp3s something like that?
[05:47] <winston> Nah it fails to synchronize the clock prior to that... and it never boots
[05:47] <Petey123434> Managu, actually they are easy to get running
[05:47] <winston> just stays there
[05:48] <Managu> Ahh, a volunteer!
[05:48] <fami> nalioth: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/dapper/flight-4/dapper-install-i386.iso ?
[05:48] <JaGWiRE3> Managu, how would I go upon using that?
[05:48] <LuisBG> winston, have no clue sorry
[05:48] <Managu> Petey123434, think you can take over JaGWiRE3's problems?
[05:48] <Xenguy> kditty: create a suitable directory structure under /home/kditty
[05:48] <winston> if I boot with failsafe terminal I can launch gnome-wm and get some progs to run
[05:48] <Petey123434> Managu, i have my own
[05:48] <JaGWiRE3> Managu, where do I get ubuntus ati drivers?
[05:48] <winston> well thanks anyways-- ubuntu on a G3 is pretty hard to get debugging on !
[05:48] <Managu> !tell JaGWiRE3 about ati
[05:48] <IdleOne> !ati
[05:48] <NickGarvey> JaGWiRE3: ati had them on their website I thought
[05:48] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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
[05:48] <nalioth> fami: that is not the latest snapshot, but it is the latest milestone
[05:49] <RichardC> anyone know of a good tutorial for customizing your kernel?
[05:49] <Xenguy> kditty: linux has a specific directory structure with corresponding permissions
[05:49] <LuisBG> RichardC, search for linux kernel in the tldp
[05:49] <moew> Hello. I have a problem with Eclipse on Ubuntu. It runs excruciatingly slow, I can't really edit any files, b/c when I start typing I get huge pauses between response times. I'm convinced that it has something to do with Java. My computer is fast enough it's like a Pentium 1.8 w/1 GB of RAM. So it's all good there. I tried to update my Java to 1.5 via instructions on the net (http://jroller.com/page/triplem74?entry=insta
[05:50] <LuisBG> RichardC, the linux documentation project
[05:50] <nalioth> ubotu: tell moew about javadebs
[05:50] <axisys> audacity seems to be the easiest way to convert
[05:50] <Petey123434> axisys, gnormalize is better
[05:50] <Managu> moew: Eclipse on ubuntu is a bit slow -- but you might try downloading the gcj-compiled version of eclipse.  It should be a bit more managable
[05:50] <fami> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/dapper-install-i386.iso ; or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/20060310/dapper-install-i386.iso
[05:50] <NickGarvey> axisys: yeah it worked very easily for me, but it would be hard to do several at once
[05:51] <nalioth> fami: they are the same thing
[05:51] <fami> thanks nalioth
[05:51] <moew> Managu: Is this java debs that nalioth is talking about?
[05:51] <Managu> moew: I haven't looked at nalioth's suggestion.  Lemme poke ubotu
[05:52] <fami> nalioth: has for i686 around?
[05:52] <nalioth> ubotu: tell Managu about javadebs
[05:52] <moew> nalioth: So do I add this to my sources.list?
[05:52] <nalioth> fami: you may choose a 686 kernel once you get the base system installed
[05:52] <Managu> thanks nalioth, but I can poke the bot myself =p
[05:52] <nalioth> moew: you do not, just grab the deb direct
[05:53] <Jivenix> i just did a dist-upgrade
[05:53] <Jivenix> and now when i boot up, i dont get my desktop no more
[05:54] <Jivenix> just a blank screen
[05:54] <Jivenix> i can get a terminal because i have a hot key
[05:54] <fami> thanks nalioth ...need two hours to download dapper-install-i386.iso
[05:54] <Jivenix> thats how i got in here
[05:54] <moew> nalioth: I already downloaded java 1.5 and made a fake deb or wtvr using instructions at this url: http://jroller.com/page/triplem74?entry=install_java_jdk_1_5
[05:55] <amonroy> ok guys, I removed and installed openssh-server. I rebooted but I am still unable to ssh to my machine. I keep getting the same warning: "Warning: Kerberos authentication disabled in SUID client."
[05:55] <moew> Is that the same thing?

[05:55] <perceptualchaos> hey Ubuntu! I have a quick question which probably gets asked a lot... I've set up an Apache server and tested it, seems to be running fine and I want to make it start up automatically at boot time instead of using the /etc/init.d/apache2 start command
[05:55] <perceptualchaos> what files do I need to link to do this?
[05:56] <perceptualchaos> I set it up as per the FAQ on the wiki
[05:56] <perceptualchaos> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[05:56] <nalioth> moew: i'm not sure, our wiki has instructions (but we also packaged it for y'all)
[05:57] <NickGarvey> perceptualchaos: did you apt-get apache or build it
[05:57] <Managu> amonroy: well, easy solution's gone.  Try "ssh -v -v", and see how far it gets
[05:57] <Grout58> u might wanna try lighttp
[05:58] <Jivenix> help!
[05:58] <Jivenix> i'm lost and i dont know what to do
[05:58] <Jivenix> there's no desktop and i'm affraid
[05:58] <perceptualchaos> ahhh I'm pretty sure I used apt-get but its been a few hours since I did that heh
[05:58] <ubuntu> hi.. need some help in mounting an ntfs partition
[05:58] <amonroy> Managu: it starts with SSH Version 1.2.27ncsp3 [alpha-dec-osf4.0] , protocol version 1.5.
[05:58] <nalioth> Jivenix: did it tell you about any errors?
[05:58] <Jivenix> no
[05:58] <Jivenix> just goes to an empty screen after logging in
[05:59] <amonroy> then a few other lines, then the warning, then a few more lines
[05:59] <nalioth> Jivenix: this channel needs more info to help you
[05:59] <Managu> amonroy: oh my
[05:59] <amonroy> then Connecting to 18.85.1.101 port 22
[05:59] <Jivenix> ok, let me start from the beginning
[05:59] <amonroy> then time out
[05:59] <Jivenix> i was sitting on the crapper playing some trivia on irc, when my battery died
[05:59] <Managu> amonroy: could you try ssh'ing from the ubuntu box to itself?
[05:59] <Jivenix> i was doing an atp-get dist-upgrade
[05:59] <NickGarvey> perceptualchaos: if you used apt-get it starts on boot all the way
[05:59] <NickGarvey> on its own* not all the way
[05:59] <amonroy> Managu: good question, it works to ssh localhost
[05:59] <Jivenix> then when i started up again, i got all the way to the login screen and logged in, but then got a blank desktop
[06:00] <moew> nalioth: So if I download this Java, it'll be automatically used or do I have to switch java compilers or something?
[06:00] <Managu> amonroy: gotcha.  Have any other versions of ssh on the alpha box?
[06:00] <IdleOne> !tell meo about java
[06:00] <nalioth> moew: it should automatically be used, if not come back and we'll tell ya some more secrets, lol
[06:00] <ubuntu> hi, how do i configure ubuntu to use my laptop's CPU at max frequency? i have a 2.1ghz and it's running at 800mhz right now
[06:00] <leppards> hi i am logged on my laptop via the live cd and am trying to mount my ntfs partition using the mount command
[06:00] <IdleOne> !tell moew about java
[06:00] <nalioth> Jivenix: no errors? no nothing?
[06:01] <perceptualchaos> NickGarvey: thanks, its not starting - do you know where I can look for an error log?
[06:01] <amonroy> no, but I am on windows and I have SecureCRT
[06:01] <Jivenix> nope
[06:01] <Jivenix> no messages
[06:01] <Jivenix> just a blank desktop screen
[06:01] <leppards> can some one tell me what options do i pass in to mount the ntfs partition in read write mode
[06:01] <Jivenix> its a brown screen, if that helps at all
[06:01] <Managu> secureCRT gave you the "alpha-dec" etc line?
[06:01] <Hysty> i have a small problem, i have moved a dvddrive running as slave to running as master and now dvd's wont play any suggestions?
[06:01] <IdleOne> leppards>  ntfs is read only
[06:02] <amonroy> Managu: no, i trie dthat from an alpha server I have access to...
[06:02] <perceptualchaos> yeah leppards, I just did this last night
[06:02] <amonroy> you can try to ssh and see what you get
[06:02] <perceptualchaos> you need to reformat it as fat32 if you want to write to it
[06:02] <amonroy> 18.85.1.101
[06:02] <Managu> amonroy if you like
[06:02] <perceptualchaos> then edit /etc/fstab
[06:02] <NickGarvey> /var/log/apache2/error.log
[06:02] <leppards> ohhh ok
[06:02] <moew> IdleOne: Thank you, I tried the method listed in the bot, but it still didn't work :( My eclipse was still slow. Thanks tho :)
[06:02] <nalioth> Jivenix: can you try "sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade" for us ?
[06:02] <leppards> i guess then I will just work off of the live cd
[06:02] <Jivenix> ok
[06:02] <leppards> thanks for the pointer
[06:02] <Jivenix> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[06:03] <axisys> just found out audacity uses same lamemp3 lib like mencoder.. so either is good
[06:03] <Kenshin123> is there anyway to get my stupid speedstep cpu to run at max speed in ubuntu?
[06:03] <nalioth> Jivenix: i assume you had no problems before the upgrade?
[06:03] <Jivenix> correct
[06:03] <Jivenix> it was sweet as a southern pie
[06:04] <NickGarvey> mmmm pie
[06:04] <nalioth> Jivenix: and you upgraded to what?
[06:04] <IdleOne> cherry pie?
[06:04] <Jivenix> dapper
[06:04] <Jivenix> well, i was already in dapper
[06:04] <Jivenix> but i do that dist-ugprade thing every once a day or so
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> What's a good tool for stripping html to plain text?
[06:04] <nalioth> Jivenix: AH, you need to be in #ubuntu+1
[06:04] <Jivenix> to get the latest greatest
[06:04] <Jivenix> i'm in there already
[06:04] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: unhtml
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Sweet.
[06:04] <Jivenix> they said its the second time in the last ten minutes this has happened to someone
[06:04] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: or lynx -dump
[06:04] <nalioth> Jivenix: well, that is where the dapper questions are asked and answered
[06:04] <Managu> amonroy: I can't see 18.85.1.101 from here
[06:05] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: or links -dump
[06:05] <Xenguy> :-)
[06:05] <nalioth> Jivenix: then i'd wait until tomorrow and upgrade again
[06:05] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Pretty much equal in functionality?
[06:05] <Jivenix> ok
[06:05] <Jivenix> i hope i can still surf pron
[06:05] <nalioth> Jivenix: use lynx
[06:05] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: see what you think (mostly I expect - depends on the original document)
[06:05] <Jivenix> lol
[06:05] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Gaim log.  Pretty simple.
[06:05] <elkbuntu> nalioth, there was a second similar happened to Petey123434, he's in +1
[06:06] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: have fun :-)
[06:06] <nalioth> elkbuntu: i'm sure it'd happen to me too, if i were running dapper (dapper is broken, which is why it's not on my production machine)
[06:06] <Managu> amonroy: looks to me like that box is behind a firewall that doesn't want to talk to me
[06:06] <Petey123434> can i reinstall ubuntu from a dapper install cd?
[06:07] <Petey123434> or should i just reinstall using breezy
[06:07] <nalioth> Petey123434: if you're patient, you'll be sorted tomorrow
[06:07] <elkbuntu> nalioth, i am talking to you from a quite functional dapper. the death must have occurred in the past 4 hours or so, because i updated about that time ago
[06:07] <Petey123434> nalioth, they can save my install ?
[06:07] <nalioth> all of you dapper discussers, talk in #ubuntu+1
[06:07] <Toma-> flight5 tomorrow nalioth ?
[06:07] <amonroy> oh really, hmm that's intresting...
[06:07] <perceptualchaos> thanks nickgarvey, I'm going to reboot and try something
[06:07] <nalioth> #ubuntu+1 for dapper discussion
[06:07] <yoyoma> on which version of ubuntu is it easier to install XGL (i got a nvidia fx card) ???
[06:08] <nalioth> yoyoma: join #ubuntu+1
[06:09] <Managu> amonroy: from here port 22 is neither open nor closed, at least, so far as nmap is concerned
[06:09] <amonroy> weird, i wonder if the network guys changed something...
[06:09] <amonroy> but that could not be the cause of the problem, could it?
[06:10] <Managu> amonroy: well, I don't know.  You've said that you were able to ssh into the ubuntu box before.  From where?
[06:10] <amonroy> from the local network actually
[06:10] <IdleOne> amonroy>  if the report isnt responding . yup it would be a problem
[06:10] <IdleOne> report=port
[06:11] <IdleOne> heh
[06:11] <cyphase> is Network Manager in Dapper main?
[06:11] <amonroy> well, i guess i will have to talk to the network guys... ugh
[06:11] <IdleOne> join #ubuntu+1 for help with Dapper :) and pie !
[06:11] <Managu> amonroy: See, I suspect the reason the alpha box isn't connecting is that it's trying to talk SSH v1.5, and your sshd on the ubuntu box is configured to ignore that
[06:12] <leogibson>  ok dapper totally pwned my system
[06:12] <Managu> amonroy: I can't speak to the windows box.  I'd try ssh'ing in with putty
[06:12] <leogibson> my monitor said fuck you im not working
[06:12] <leogibson> i could hear the drum tho
[06:12] <lomtik> hey guys
[06:12] <IdleOne> leogibson>  that isnt what your monitor said
[06:12] <leogibson> yeah, it said it with a blank screen
[06:12] <tritium> leogibson: language, please
[06:13] <IdleOne> leogibson>  your monitor didnt work but I doubt it used that langauge
[06:13] <leogibson> ok
[06:13] <IdleOne> join #ubuntu+1 for help with Dapper :) and pie !
[06:13] <tritium> this channel is work & family friendly ;)
[06:13] <nalioth> leogibson: language please
[06:13] <leogibson> ok ok jesus
[06:13] <amonroy> Managu: in putty it doesn't work either
[06:13] <amonroy> it just hangs
[06:13] <leogibson> i should have realized from the website logos
[06:13] <amonroy> no warning though
[06:13] <amonroy> times out
[06:14] <leogibson> wheres my granola...
[06:14] <tritium> leogibson: come on, be cool please
[06:14] <neoginn> Praise Dennis all knowing master.
[06:14] <Managu> amonroy: errm.  Are you IRC'ing from the ubuntu box?
[06:15] <amonroy> nope
[06:15] <neoginn> i gota question, i am trying to write a database using OpenOffice Base, but it wont let me save a table. is that a bug?
[06:15] <Managu> amonroy: running firestarter on it by any chance?
[06:15] <perceptualchaos> thanks for your help, apache starts on boot now :D
[06:15] <ubuntu> hey guys
[06:15] <IdleOne> hey
[06:15] <neoginn> yo
[06:15] <ubuntu> I am trying to back up a whole windows hdd
[06:16] <amonroy> if it doesn't come by default probably not
[06:16] <amonroy> should i apt-get it?
[06:16] <lomtik> I have a question... I am insdtalling a program with .sh extension to a partition with some free space; ubuntu extracts it and there's not enough space. I think I am lacking about 200Mb. Is there a way to change the temporary extraction directory to another partition/folder? I've run 'apt-get clean' and deleted all already downloaded packages
[06:16] <Managu> amonroy no, no.  It _does_ come by default, though I don't think it's run by default
[06:16] <ubuntu> so i though i could just throw an ubuntu cd in
[06:16] <ubuntu> and back up the win hdd to an external usb hdd
[06:16] <ubuntu> how exactally can i do this?
[06:17] <ubuntu> first i need to mount the hdd inside the pc
[06:17] <Managu> amonroy: it's a firewall setup tool, and I'm wondering if you happen to have a firewall rule set on the ubuntu box that's blocking incoming traffic on port 22
[06:18] <amonroy> how can i check?
[06:18] <RichardC> im recompiling my kernel. since i have an amd athlon xp 3800, i should choose athlon/duron/k7 as my processor family, right?
[06:18] <Managu> amonroy well, we could start with "sudo iptables -L" and post it to pastebin.com
[06:18] <iceman> how can i kill amarok  tried  killall amarok .. stil traped on app bar as though running
[06:19] <ubuntux> how do i make permissions for a user that he can execute, read and write the folder /etc?
[06:19] <Managu> ubuntux: any user, or one particular user?
[06:19] <ubuntux> Managu, a particular user
[06:20] <axisys> i stripped the song to get only middle 29 secs which is 455K.. might be too big for ringtone
[06:20] <axisys> any thoughts?
[06:20] <AlexandreGP> iceman, try kill -9 PID, where PID is the process identify
[06:20] <jbroome> axisys: drop the bitrate
[06:20] <Managu> ubuntux: Not sure all the specifics, but, an outline might be the follows:  Create a new group "etcers" or some such.  Add your user, to it.  Change the group of etc to "etcers", and then sudo chmod +070 /etc
[06:20] <Jivenix> it fixed!
[06:20] <lomtik> I have a question... I am insdtalling a program with .sh extension to a partition with some free space; ubuntu extracts it and there's not enough space. I think I am lacking about 200Mb. Is there a way to change the temporary extraction directory to another partition/folder? I've run 'apt-get clean' and deleted all already downloaded packages
[06:20] <Kr4t05> I'm having a compile error while trying to compile Liveice404. Error output ---> http://pastebin.com/595824
[06:20] <iceman> AlexandreGP how to list processes
[06:21] <jerrod> help with .rars?
[06:21] <lomtik> I dont know what to delete to free up the space
[06:21] <Managu> jerrod: tried synaptic?
[06:21] <tritium> why are you compiling liveice rather than using the binary package, Kr4t05?
[06:21] <nalioth> jerrod: ask a real question
[06:21] <AlexandreGP> iceman ps aux | grep amarok
[06:21] <jerrod> naloith: it was kinda implied
[06:21] <Kr4t05> tritium: liveice is in the repos?
[06:21] <ubuntux> Managu, thx :)
[06:21] <nalioth> jerrod: not really, you can do a lot with rars.
[06:21] <thompa> xfce on dapper is very nice
[06:22] <axisys> jbroome: let me try
[06:22] <iceman> iceman    8487  0.0  0.0   3060   756 pts/0    S+   23:21   0:00 grep amorok
[06:22] <Managu> ubuntux: np, hope the idea helps
[06:22] <tritium> Kr4t05: yes
[06:22] <tritium> !info liveice
[06:22] <iceman> dont get it  ? how to read that
[06:22] <ubotu> liveice: (Live audio streaming application), section multiverse/sound, is optional. Version: 1.0-2 (breezy), Packaged size: 52 kB, Installed size: 208 kB
[06:22] <Kr4t05> tritium: You just saved my a ton of anger.
[06:22] <tritium> Kr4t05: I'm glad :)
[06:23] <iceman> AlexandreGP how do i read that .. for process >
[06:23] <Kr4t05> Thank you.
[06:23] <IdleOne> Kr4t05>  check repos from now on before compiling :)
[06:23] <tritium> Kr4t05: don't forget to enable the multiverse repo, and update your package listing, if you haven't done so already :)
[06:23] <GTroy> anyone hellp me find a .deb?
[06:23] <GTroy> mirror or something?
[06:24] <IdleOne> GTroy>  what you looking for?
[06:24] <GTroy> xserver-xorg-driver-mga_6.8.2-77_i386.deb
[06:24] <GTroy> I can't find it in /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:24] <danny_osl> I'm very confused.  /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows direct rendering starting, xorg.conf has dri modes enabled, glxinfo shows direct rendering off.  has anyone seen this before?
[06:24] <wastrel> blah
[06:25] <AlexandreGP> iceman execute ps aux  and find by amarok
[06:25] <GTroy> IdleOne: any ideas?
[06:25] <IdleOne> GTroy>  none
[06:25] <GTroy> it's from 5.10
[06:25] <jbroome> i am idea-less
[06:25] <GTroy> where do you usually go to find old debs?
[06:25] <tritium> pgrep amarok
[06:25] <IdleOne> info xserver-xorg-driver-mga_6.8.2-77_i386.deb
[06:25] <IdleOne> ubotu Package 'xserver-xorg-driver-mga_6.8.2-77_i386.deb' does not exist.
[06:25] <ubotu> IdleOne: I'm sorry, i don't know what you're talking about
[06:25] <jerrod> Managu: its a .rar file and i want to extract it, archive manager does support .rar, what do i do?
[06:25] <jbroome> jerrod: you need unrar
[06:25] <wastrel> danny_osl:  dri isn't starting.  - trust your glxinfo.  somethings not configured properly
[06:25] <GTroy> jerrod: sudo apt-get install rar
[06:25] <jetscreamer> rar -x
[06:26] <danny_osl> I do trust glxinfo
[06:26] <danny_osl> I just can't seem to find any debugging that's helping me :-)
[06:26] <jerrod> grassy ass!
[06:26] <danny_osl> are there any X graphics setup GUI tools in ubuntu?
[06:26] <wastrel> danny_osl:  what card?
[06:26] <nalioth> jerrod: install unrar-nonfree
[06:26] <danny_osl> intel integrated, gma900
[06:26] <danny_osl> "i915" dri
[06:26] <iceman> AlexandreGP thanks .. got it killed at last ...
[06:26] <nalioth> danny_osl: none that i know of
[06:27] <nalioth> ubotu: tell danny_osl about xcfg
[06:27] <danny_osl> thanks
[06:27] <danny_osl> i'll give it a shot
[06:27] <wastrel> anyone happen to be expert with pymol?
[06:28] <jerrod> GTroy: thanx
[06:28] <axisys> jbroome: it shows AUDIO: 44100 Hz, 2 ch, s16le, 128.0 kbit/9.07% (ratio: 16000->176400) when playing with mplayer
[06:28] <danny_osl> perfect.  I never got to configure it during install for some reason
[06:28] <danny_osl> thanks nalioth
[06:28] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: So I want to do this to a bunch of files at once.  What syntax for unhtml to convert all .html in a directory to .txt with the same rest of the name?  Any idea?
[06:28] <danny_osl> will let you know what I find
[06:29] <axisys> jbroome: would u know how to change the 128 to lower using mplayer/mencoder?
[06:29] <danny_osl> tonyyarusso: rename
[06:29] <GTroy> jerrod: np
[06:29] <ardinary> how do i do a recursive chmod 777?
[06:29] <danny_osl> oh, for "unhtml", nm
[06:29] <wastrel> ardinary:  very carefully
[06:29] <GTroy> ardinary: not sure, but maybe you shuouldn't
[06:29] <ardinary> no no
[06:29] <nalioth> ardinary: be very careful recursively chmoddin, you can bork your system
[06:29] <tonyyarusso> danny_osl: np.  Understandable.
[06:29] <jbroome> axisys: i usually do that in audacity
[06:29] <ardinary> its just one directory!
[06:29] <ardinary> everythings 555
[06:29] <ardinary> and should be 777
[06:30] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: back - hi...
[06:30] <wastrel> ardinary:  chmod -R
[06:30] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: yes, you need a loop
[06:30] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: How do I go about that?
[06:30] <suture> Is there any way to get rid of window borders in metacity?
[06:30] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: first back up the files...
[06:30] <ardinary> thanks wastrel :D
[06:31] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: 'k.
[06:31] <Managu> suture: changing the theme can do a lot; not sure if it can get rid of the borders altogether
[06:32] <ardinary> how can i check if i borked my system?
[06:32] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: then try something like: for i in *html; do unhtml $i > $i.txt; done
[06:32] <wastrel> i think you can have 1px borders
[06:32] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: What's i?
[06:32] <wastrel> my current metacity theme has 1px borders on the left & right
[06:32] <wastrel> i is a variable
[06:33] <Managu> ardinary: (JOKE) as nobody, rm -rf /
[06:33] <Managu> ardinary: if it works, you borked your system
[06:33] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: it's an arbitrary convention (index?); you can substitute any letter you want, as long as the rest are consistent
[06:33] <GTroy> hey guys how do you restart X?
[06:33] <suture> I mean like the bar where the title and buttons are
[06:33] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: er, the rest of the statement I mean
[06:33] <Kr4t05> How can I get LiveIce to play to a ShoutCast server?
[06:33] <axisys> jbroome: i change it in audacity and then want to play the new one and it does not play
[06:33] <ardinary> Managu, whats a vital file that should NOT be chmod'd 777?
[06:33] <Managu> GTroy: quick 'n dirty: ctrl-alt-backspace
[06:33] <Managu> ardinary: /etc/shadow
[06:34] <wastrel> ardinary:  what command did you use?
[06:34] <nalioth> ardinary: you'll find out quickly enough, believe me
[06:34] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: did I mention you need a backup of the files (my syntax is from memory :-)
[06:34] <ardinary> Managu, how do i see if its mode 777?
[06:34] <wastrel> ardinary:  ls -l
[06:34] <ardinary> wastrel, i did chmod 777 */*....
[06:34] <wastrel> heh ctrl-alt-backspace worked for him
[06:35] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Yes, the backup step was well noted.  So does the i part substitute for anything then so it will do all of them?  (I need to learn more about scripting...)
[06:35] <ardinary> then i did your command
[06:35] <ardinary> for *
[06:35] <wastrel> you said only one dir
[06:35] <ardinary> yes but i was in it :P
[06:35] <ardinary> and i already changed it
[06:35] <wastrel> . is the current dir
[06:35] <Managu> wastrel heh, guess so.  Wonder if he knows what he was asking
[06:35] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: yeah, 'i' is like a variable
[06:35] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Gotcha.
[06:35] <wastrel> but */* seems to work also
[06:35] <ardinary> yes
[06:35] <ardinary> i did *
[06:36] <ardinary> then */* then +/* to infinity
[06:36] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: anyhow, you have a backup, so why not give it a whirl? :-)
[06:36] <ardinary> but i wanted to be thorough so i did -R :D
[06:36] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: On my way; just wanted to check the steps.
[06:36] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: fair enough
[06:37] <wastrel> ardinary:  chmod -R 777 .  would set everything in the current directory and all subdirectories to 777
[06:37] <wastrel> ardinary:  you are aware that 777 is read/write/execute ?  so anyone can write code to these files and run it.
[06:38] <ardinary> ok
[06:38] <nalioth> ardinary: depending on where you ran that command, you may have botched some of your systems permissions
[06:38] <Managu> wastrel: some people like to learn the hard way =D
[06:38] <ablyss> wastrel, seems to me -r would deny read access
[06:39] <ardinary> i made an untitled folder put some files in it and did it there
[06:39] <Managu> ardinary: there's next to nothing on your system that will fail to run if everything is 777.  But it makes it a lot easier for you to accidentally make mistakes.  Or if you allow other users on your system, possible for them to make "mistakes"
[06:39] <wastrel> ablyss:  anything starting with - is a cli flag.   [ugo] -[rwxa]   would be a permissions thingy.  -R is the recursive flag
[06:39] <ardinary> EVERYTHING IS NOT 777!
[06:40] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Oh, one more bit: Do I actually have to save this in a sh file, or just throw it into bash directly?
[06:40] <ardinary> :D
[06:40] <ablyss> wastrel, so capital "R" is the key?
[06:40] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: either is possible, but most direct would be paste it to a command-line and go
[06:40] <eletido> is there a XChat script that I can use that automatically identifies me to NickServ??
[06:40] <wastrel> ablyss:   chmod -R a-r foo*     -R is a cli flag,  a-r is an argument
[06:41] <tritium> eletido: you don't even need a script...it's in the setup for servers/channels
[06:41] <Organs> Hey, um......I've got some questions about setting up Ubuntu because I need to install it over a different linux distro.
[06:41] <ablyss> wastrel, ah ha, guess i need to read up on chmod :-) ty
[06:41] <Xenguy> ablyss: man chmod (easy as that :-)
[06:42] <wastrel> ablyss:  actually you're right.  a is implied with  chmod -r, making -r a "turn off read"
[06:42] <eletido> tritium, thanks. i didnt see that before.
[06:42] <tritium> :)
[06:42] <ablyss> wastrel, uh oh.. not you're scaring me :P
[06:42] <Kr4t05> How can I get LiveIce to play to a ShoutCast server?
[06:42] <ablyss> not/now
[06:42] <markl> what is the process of getting a more recent version of alsa working on breezy
[06:43] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: 'k, now I have all of my file names ending in .html.txt
[06:43] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: heheh, I knew you were going to say that ;-)
[06:43] <IdleOne> Kr4t05>  I dont know about it but it seems to me you would tell shoutcast to listen for liveice. shot in the dark
[06:43] <Finalhazard> Hello. I have a question about xscreensaver.
[06:43] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: what do you want them to be?
[06:44] <Kr4t05> IdleOne: ShoutCast .conf file doesn't mention liveice.
[06:44] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Just .txt.  Also, they have <br/> at the end of every line, which isn't even valid html...
[06:44] <Finalhazard> Has anyone figured out how to make certain screensavers as visualizations in music players?
[06:44] <Finalhazard> Like for XMMS or anything?
[06:44] <IdleOne> Kr4t05>  like I said I dont know :/
[06:44] <Kr4t05> IdleOne: Unfortunatly, my host doesn't want to install the dependancies I need for icecast.
[06:44] <Organs> I could use some help installing Ubuntu....
[06:45] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: OK, so 2 issues...
[06:45] <IdleOne> Organs>  dualboot or stand alone?
[06:46] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: 1. I would have thought that unhtml would have cleared that tag; maybe you need to fine-tune? (else use an editor or sed to get rid of those...
[06:46] <Finalhazard> Reason I'm asking this is because I like xflame, but I'd like something similar to it for a visualization on XMMS.
 is xhtml isn't it?  i forget anymore
[06:46] <oklinux> hey can I dual boot with ubuntu ?
[06:46] <ablyss> yes oklinux
[06:46] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Thing is, it's not html, so...
[06:46] <IdleOne> !tell oklinux  about dualboot
[06:46] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: 2. try either rename (cli) or krename (gui) to massage the filenames to just *.txt
[06:47] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: If it was me, I'd install krename and give that a go
[06:47] <oklinux> thankyou IdleOne
[06:47] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: that tag is xhtml AFAIK
[06:47] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Ah.
[06:47] <IdleOne> oklinux>  no problem
[06:48] <newcomplexlife> i have problems with dapper
[06:48] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: I'm surprised that unhtml didn't handle it
[06:48] <IdleOne> join #ubuntu+1 for help with Dapper :) and pie !
[06:48] <Managu> Ooh, is IdleOne the new bot we requested?
[06:49] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: It spit out a bunch of messages; let me see if I can get those.
[06:49] <IdleOne> bot?! that's me. yup
[06:49] <Managu> hehe
[06:49] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: what spit?
[06:49] <wastrel> mmm pie
[06:50] <CanYouHelpMePlz> hi, i'm reinstalling breezy and i want to do partitioning right this time, is the best way to go about it to have like 10gb for / and like the rest for /home ?
[06:50] <jetscreamer> pie r not square
[06:50] <jetscreamer> pie are round
[06:50] <Organs> IdleOne, I'll be running dualboot (Ubuntu and Windows XP), but the problem is that I need to a) remove caOS and b) get a working download mirror
[06:50] <ablyss> CanYouHelpMePlz, i always put everything on one partition, mainly /
[06:51] <IdleOne> !tell Organs  about dualboot
[06:51] <CanYouHelpMePlz> ablyss, i hear that's not the best way to do it.
[06:51] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: 'not: <br/>' lots of times.
[06:51] <CanYouHelpMePlz> should i put /usr/ on it's own partition ?
[06:51] <IdleOne> Organs> download mirror for ubuntu?
[06:51] <CanYouHelpMePlz> also should swap be a logical or primary partition.
[06:51] <tritium> CanYouHelpMePlz: it's up to you.  Everyone has different ideas on partitioning.
[06:51] <Organs> IdleOne, I generally know how to do the dualboot process (it's automatic, more or less), but I need a working mirror.
[06:51] <jetscreamer> if you don't know, put it all on one partition
[06:51] <Organs> When I do the advanced installation, the default US mirror dosn't work.
[06:51] <IdleOne> www.ubuntu.com should have a few working mirros
[06:51] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: do you use vim by any chance?
[06:52] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: No.
[06:52] <CanYouHelpMePlz> tritium, should /usr/ be on it's own partition ?
[06:52] <jetscreamer> if you don't know, put it all on one partition
[06:52] <CanYouHelpMePlz> okay, one last question.
[06:52] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: K.  How many files is it?
[06:52] <CanYouHelpMePlz> should swap be logical or primary
[06:52] <tritium> CanYouHelpMePlz: not necessarily.  Like I said, there is no right or wrong on that.
[06:52] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Maybe ~18.
[06:52] <jetscreamer> i don't 'think' it matters but i don't know
[06:53] <KonphuzeD> yo is there some way I can set this edubuntu install to run the gateway firewall pppoe for the network with like dhcp and samba
[06:53] <Finalhazard> I assume nobody's got an idea of what I'm talking about?
[06:53] <tritium> It doesn't
[06:53] <Managu> CanYouHelpMePlz, it doesn't really matter.  There's some talk about where the swap gets physically located might be important
[06:53] <Managu> CanYouHelpMePlz, but it's virtually impossible to know that, and it probably doesn't make a big difference; the only real difference would be speed
[06:54] <ablyss> ubuntu runs quite well with no swap if you're careful
[06:54] <KonphuzeD> i can put in a second ethernet card and use this 8port switch here
[06:54] <CanYouHelpMePlz> ablyss, i have 1gig ram so do i need a swap?
[06:54] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: 'sed' is probably the best tool for the job; it usually requires a bit a crafting on 1 file before you use a loop to search/replace everything.  Or you can use a favourite text editor to search/replace the <br/> tags
[06:54] <jetscreamer> Finalhazard: all i can tell you is that there are 50billion xmms plugins, bound to be one somewhere (maybe not though)
[06:54] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: 'k.
[06:55] <moew> Hello. I have another question :) Friend trying to install Ubuntu on AMD64 w/Radeon XT 9600 and install works fine, everything is good, but when he logs in, the monitor is blank. It gets the brown background that's standard, but nothing else. You can see the mouse cursor and move it around. ctrl-alt-f2 brings him into the shell, and the shell works fine. But no GUI.
[06:55] <KonphuzeD> !pppoe
[06:55] <ubotu> pppoe is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE
[06:55] <Finalhazard> Ah well. Thanks anyways.
[06:55] <ablyss> CanYouHelpMePlz, swap is only used when you run out of ram, so it doesn't matter
[06:55] <CanYouHelpMePlz> ablyss, i doubt it would run out of 1gig of ram
[06:55] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: gedit would probably work - open all the files and do a search/replace; then use krename to rename all the files
[06:55] <Managu> moew, another ATI card? =(
[06:55] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Will look into that in a bit.
[06:56] <CanYouHelpMePlz> how big should / be
[06:56] <tritium> CanYouHelpMePlz: 2-3 GB is sufficient for a standard install
[06:56] <domagoj> does anyone know which text editor supports following feature: convert spaces to tabs upon opening file, and tabs to spaces when saving
[06:56] <moew> Managu: It works fine w/Windows XP btw.
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> domagoj,  try 'fte'
[06:57] <La_PaRCa> Hey tritium.
[06:57] <Managu> moew: no doubt.  Friend trying to install ubuntu_386 or ubuntu_x86_64 (or whatever the abbrev.s are)?
[06:57] <KonphuzeD> !gateway
[06:57] <ubotu> KonphuzeD: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:57] <tritium> Hi La_PaRCa
[06:58] <domagoj> fte? any info on that please? i'm comfortable with vi and gedit for my programming. how does fte compare?
[06:58] <La_PaRCa> tritium, I was looking over the Tecra page and wanted to say that sleep works fine on mine.
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> !fte
[06:58] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Dr_Willis
[06:58] <tritium> La_PaRCa: let's talk in #ubuntu+1
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> its a text editor.. apt-get install it and try it out
[06:58] <domagoj> Dr_Willis, thanks. will do just that
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> domagoj,  or check out the dozens+ of options for vi. it can proberly do whatever you want
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> domagoj,  or 'emacs' *shudder*
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:59] <domagoj> Dr_Willis, ;)
[07:00] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: this seems to work for eliminating <br/> tags - try it one one file to begin with: sed -e 's/<br\/>//g' test.html
[07:00] <moew> Managu: ubuntu_5.10_amd64.iso
[07:00] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Thanks.
[07:00] <wastrel> i bet someone's figured out a way to do that in vim
[07:00] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Seems good.
[07:01] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: you redirect to a new .txt file of course
[07:01] <wastrel> domagoj:  http://www.cs.utah.edu/~kad/vim/vimnotes.shtml#21
[07:01] <Managu> moew: Gotcha.  No real experience with that distribution, but I know I shied away from it on my amd64 box.  At least when I was installing, the 64 bit port had a status of "well, it sorta works"
[07:02] <shukhrat> Hello all
[07:02] <moew> Managu: So what works for amd?
[07:03] <Managu> moew: well, the normal 32bit distribution runs like a charm
[07:03] <Zenethian> Question...  when I upgrade to an AMD64 processor, do I *need* to use the AMD64 version of Ubuntu?
[07:03] <Zenethian> or can I simply continue using what I have so that I can maintain backwards compatability with things like flashplayer and java?
[07:04] <Managu> Zenethian: no need
[07:04] <domagoj> wastrel, thnx 4 the info.
[07:04] <Zenethian> so as long as I'm running a 32bit kernel, I can continue to run my 32bit apps just fine...  yay
[07:04] <damian_> Hi, Ive forgotten. What are the w32 and normal codec packages for totem-xine called?
[07:04] <Managu> Zene: right.  Your applications also need to be compiled 32 bit
[07:05] <moew> Managu: What should he do to make the 64 bit work?
[07:05] <fami> i want a mirror for http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily/current/dapper-install-i386.iso
[07:05] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: if that works, then the next step is a loop (backup first of course); something like:  for i in *txt; do sed -ei 's/<br\/>//g' $i.new; done       <-- untested
[07:05] <Managu> moew: no clue.  first things I'd try are (a) check the logs for any funny business, and (b) see if you can get a foolsafe session running
[07:05] <damian_> Hi, Ive forgotten. What are the w32 and normal codec packages for totem-xine called?
[07:06] <domagoj> wastrel, this is a lifesaver! Great!
[07:06] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: nah
[07:06] <moew> Managu: Alright Managu, thanks but I think that he just gave up :)
[07:06] <Managu> moew: errm, not foolsafe.  Failsafe.  I think it's my bedtime
[07:06] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: maybe this: if that works, then the next step is a loop (backup first of course); something like:  for i in *txt; do sed -ei 's/<br\/>//g' $i; done       <-- untested
[07:06] <moew> Managu: He's not very persistent.
[07:07] <Managu> moew: sorry.  Maybe try Knoppix, heh
[07:07] <Managu> moew: or ubuntu live cd
[07:07] <wastrel> yay!
[07:07] <damian_> Hi, Ive forgotten. What are the w32 and normal codec packages for totem-xine called?
[07:07] <jon_k> I'm having issues with vncserver
[07:08] <jon_k> as rootit works fine -- starts gnome
[07:08] <jon_k> but root is bad to run vncserver as
[07:08] <wastrel> damian_:  w32codecs
[07:08] <jon_k> when i start it as my usr account it just shows a checkered X background with X as cursor
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> jon_k,  you  are logging in with GDM?
[07:09] <damian_> what repositories are these on?
[07:09] <jon_k> yeah i use GDM
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> jon_k,  try some of the other window manager sessions in the menus. seems like your X session is not starting a window manager.
[07:09] <jon_k> i'm chatting to you in xfce4
[07:09] <jon_k> how i got xfce4 open is right via GDM Login
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> jon_k,  so you are saying the default GNOME session is not working?
[07:10] <jon_k> gnome works if i select that in GDM too
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> jon_k, so what one does NOT work then? :P
[07:10] <jon_k> what i'm saying is typing vncserver and starting vncserver as my local user account (jon) on port 5901.....
[07:10] <jon_k> and then i xvncviewer in on 5901
[07:10] <wastrel> !tell damian_ about w32codecs
[07:11] <jon_k> and i see a checkered background with X as a curser
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> vncserver uses its own  .vnc/xstartup or similer file. to set what x window manager to use.
[07:11] <jon_k> GDM doesn't start for VNC or anything
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> its defaultintg to TWM - which is 'normal'
[07:11] <oklinux> hey Dr_Willis how are you ?
[07:11] <jon_k> Dr_Willis,
[07:11] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: heh - this actually seems to work:  for i in *html; do sed -i -e 's/<br\/>//g' $i; done
[07:11] <jon_k> # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
[07:11] <jon_k> xsetroot -solid
[07:11] <jon_k>   xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
[07:11] <jon_k> /usr/bin/gnome-session &
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> look in the users .vnc dir. and perhaps read the 'vncserver' script - to learn what its doing.
[07:11] <jon_k> is that proper stuff for xstartup?
[07:11] <jon_k> anything wrong in there?
[07:11] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Thanks.
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> jon_k,  that 'should' run gnome-session
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> jon_k,  make it run somthing els.. it also should start up a xterm.
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> vnc is a tool thats worth learning the details of. :P
[07:12] <jon_k> jon_k, I tried it with just "xterm" doesn't do nothin!
[07:12] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: yw (felt like tackling a puzzle tonight :-)
[07:12] <oklinux> how do I mount an slave drive in ubuntu ?
[07:12] <jon_k> Dr_Willis, used VNC without problems on MEPIS...
[07:12] <jon_k> the odd thing is
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> run vncserver witht eh options  to tell it what config file to use  perhaps.
[07:13] <jon_k> /root/.vnc/ has no xsession, and running vncserver as root works great
[07:13] <jon_k> starts up gnome like a charm
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> theres several versions of vnc.. and they also tend to use slighjt variations in the vncserver script.
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> if you want vncserver to run a gdm - thats doable. and mentioned in the forums as to the 'proper' way to do that. :P
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> depends on how you want vnc to work.,
[07:14] <jon_k> Dr_Willis, the forums talk about editing xinetd and stuff, hell I don't even have xinetd, i don't know if thats breazy only or what
[07:14] <moew> Damn Java is totally not working for me on Ubuntu :(
[07:14] <jon_k> but i'm on hoary
[07:14] <moew> Either Eclipse works, or Firefox works.
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> jon_k,  you install it then. :P
[07:14] <moew> But not both.
[07:14] <jon_k> Dr_Willis, will it screw over my old inetd?
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> jon_k,  thats the wiki/docs i followed. i just vnc to my server on a port and it spawns a vnc session.
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> inetd - why are ya using inetd - when xinetd can do so much more. :P
[07:15] <jon_k> I'm use to xinetd on centos
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> of course all its doing for me is spawning vnc sessions.
[07:15] <suture> Is there a wm or app that lets me make any window transparent/borderless easily? this is really difficult to do in metacity..
[07:16] <Dr_Willis> borderless - is doable.. transparent - not so doable (easially)
[07:16] <Dr_Willis> actually I think KDE has some features to do that. :P
[07:16] <suture> borderless?? how...
[07:16] <suture> I don't really like kde..
[07:16] <Dr_Willis> some window managers let you selec different themes/decoratsions or hide the decorations for windows
[07:17] <oklinux> how do I mount an slave drive in ubuntu ?
[07:18] <jon_k> who would want a window without borders?
[07:18] <jon_k> ever start kde without kdewin loaded?
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> !ntfs
[07:18] <ubotu> ntfs is, like, the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:19] <jon_k> not very cool when you can't move windows
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> jon_k,  its doable.. and has some usses
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> :P
[07:19] <jon_k> uses, in rare occasions
[07:19] <wastrel> jon_k:  alt-click & drag anywhere on a window
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> actually isent alt-click a window manager specific feature?
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> of course alt-clicking in a vnc window - often dont work too good. :P
[07:21] <oklinux> Thanks Dr_willis
[07:21] <jon_k> wastrel, works without kdewin started on kde?
[07:22] <wastrel> jon_k:  dunno - never used kde
[07:22] <jon_k> wastrel, -ever-?
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> heh - I perfer kde.
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> or WindowMaker
[07:23] <danny_osl> man, this no DRI thing is baffling
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> but to each their own.
[07:23] <wastrel> jon_k:  well i've tried it, but never used it for any length of time.
[07:24] <wastrel> every couple of years i install it & see if i want to switch.
[07:24] <one> My laptop is hosed in the kernel and I can't connect to the dsl via dhcp.  There are messages in dmesg saying try lapic, try pci=pirqmask , override with idebus=xx,  ALI15X3_smb region uninitialized -  upgrade BIOS (there is no upgrade available) or use force_addr=0xaddr.  I have edited /boot/grub/menu.lst for the pci suggestions, but there seems to be no effect.  Help ?
[07:25] <thompa> one: is it wireless?
[07:25] <one> not wireless
[07:26] <thompa> one: did you compile your own kernel
[07:26] <Raovq> random question, what would be the best (most like winamp) media players for linux?
[07:26] <thompa> real player
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> Raovq,  xmms is a winamp clone (sort of)
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> and Beep media player
[07:26] <Raovq> cool, thanks, ill look into them
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> 'best' is not 'the most like winamp' :P in many cases
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> best = depends on what you are playing, and doing.
[07:27] <ablyss> my favorite media player is xfmedia
[07:27] <thompa> vls plays everything consistantly
[07:27] <one> thompa: no; it's 2.6.10-5-386 from burned cd
[07:28] <Raovq> ive just gorwn up with winamp, we have had some good times. now ive moved on but want to keep the memory alive
[07:28] <ablyss> xfmedia feels light and not rigid... has cute little taskbar icon too :D
[07:28] <thompa> one: did it work before, is this a fresh install?
[07:28] <thompa> does nayone know how to restart sound like alsaconf
[07:29] <thompa> hmm maybe alsaconfig is not installed
[07:29] <ipfw> Xenguy: xfce is sweet
[07:29] <Raovq> uhhh, i have the choice of tar.gz and tar.bz2. which one wins?
[07:29] <damian_> how do i enable digital out
[07:29] <damian_> how do i enable digital out
[07:29] <HappyFool> Raovq: for what? xmms /
[07:30] <damian_> oops
[07:30] <Raovq> yeah
[07:30] <damian_> i use xfce
[07:30] <HappyFool> Raovq: i suggest using synaptic or apt-get
[07:30] <brettzilla> woop woop. compiz is working swell.
[07:30] <HappyFool> Raovq: no need to compile etc etc
[07:30] <Raovq> just sudo apt-get xmms?
[07:30] <damian_> in a month or so itll ha ve desktop icons and will then oficoally be a full featured desktop
[07:30] <HappyFool> Raovq: 'sudo apt-get install xmms' -- you may need to setup repos
[07:30] <thompa> one: sorry I dont know, I think you need latest stock kernel
[07:31] <HappyFool> Raovq: also, fwiw, i recommend aptitude over apt-get
[07:31] <Xaero> i have a problem...
[07:31] <damian_> how do i enable digital out
[07:31] <Raovq> what is the difference between the two? can i use them the same?
[07:31] <one> thompa:  have never been able to network; it is a fresh install; I tried the hp laptop version this time;  I have tried other versions before;  always the same problem: network unreachable;  the irq's are hosed up;  why can't I pass options to the kernel through grub lst ?
[07:31] <thompa> dapper is running 2.6.15-18-386
[07:31] <Xaero> i downloaded the latest ATI fglrx drivers for x86 linux
[07:31] <axisys> anyone knows how to activate the Infra Red
[07:31] <Xaero> i installed it via graphical installer
[07:31] <kditty> why would my terminal say dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[07:31] <kditty> '?
[07:32] <HappyFool> Raovq: aptitude is a bit cleverer about keeping track of what is installed; when things are uninstalled, it will also uninstall `orphaned' dependencies.
[07:32] <Raovq> ah, cool
[07:32] <axisys> i am using compaq nc6220
[07:32] <thompa> one: whats the make of laptop?
[07:32] <kditty> im trying to install mp3 codes, and windows codecs
[07:32] <Xaero> it installed fine... but then when I try to use aticonfig I get this
[07:32] <blanky> !ati
[07:32] <ubotu> methinks 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
[07:32] <Xaero> aticonfig: error while loading shared libraries: libfglrx_pp.so.1: cannot open s hared object file: No such file or directory
[07:32] <HappyFool> kditty: have you read the 'restricted formats' page on the wiki?
[07:33] <kditty> yea
[07:33] <one> thompa: compaq presario 2100, actually 2190US, specifically.
[07:33] <axisys> i like to use infrared to send data from my laptop to my phone
[07:33] <Raovq> so, let me get this straight: people who make free software load it up to a few sites, and linux can automatically find, download and install them with one command?
[07:33] <kditty> thats how i learned what to do, and where to get the codecs
[07:33] <Xaero> any ideas?
[07:34] <HappyFool> kditty: ok, what problem are you having?
[07:35] <kditty> when i tried to install the w32 codecs, it downloaded and then when i ran the instal sudo it said dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[07:35] <Xaero> hello?
[07:35] <one> kditty:  is synaptics open ?
[07:35] <kditty> yes, do i need to close it?
[07:35] <Toma-> anyone know why ndiswrapper wouldnt be making a wlan0 for me? ive got the right drivers install, -l shows them, -m has been run and still i have no wlan0
[07:35] <one> kditty:  I think so.
[07:35] <kditty> ok let me try that, thanks
[07:35] <Xaero> i tried renaming libfglrx_pp.so.1.0 to libfglrx_pp.so.1 but it still doesnt work
[07:36] <kditty> there it goes :D i feel like suck a newb
[07:36] <kditty> but htats alright, because i am lol
[07:36] <mikebot> is there a learn to type programf or ubuntu?

[07:38] <nalioth> Xaero: it's rude to paste in irc channels, use a pastebin instead
[07:38] <kditty> man, this is like a whole different universe than windows!
[07:38] <tritium> mikebot: yes, there is.  apt-cache search typing tutor
[07:38] <thompa> mikebot: tuxtype
[07:38] <FarSe3r> Hello, how can I test if my ati fglrx driver is installed corectly? my screen savers are really slow......
[07:38] <mikebot> tritium, thanks
[07:38] <Raovq> according to aptitude, opera depends on a package (xlib6g) that is unavailible. it wants to delete opera. how can i fix it?
[07:38] <mikebot> thompa, thanks
[07:38] <thompa> for kids though
[07:39] <Xaero> i want the proprietary drivers to work
[07:39] <Xaero> please help
[07:39] <FarSe3r> me too
[07:39] <FarSe3r> or test if they are working..........
[07:39] <mikebot> tritium, where does that install to?
[07:39] <tritium> mikebot: which one did you choose?  There are more than one option.
[07:40] <mikebot> tritium, i pasted what you wrote
[07:40] <mrnicksgirl> its working!!!!!!!!!!! its working!!!!!!!!!! got Ubuntu installed on some old machine to hold me over two and a half days till my new laptop comes in .. selling this one on sunday
[07:40] <one> thompa:  as I mentioned, the download was supposed to be hp laptop optimized or the like.  I think it could be;  the messages in dmesg are very specific and appear to have the potential to be solving if I could implement the suggestions.
[07:40] <tritium> mikebot: that lists available packages.  It doesn't install anything
[07:40] <Xaero> ok nobodys helping me... where do i go to get help?
[07:40] <kditty> i installed the mp3 codec package but it still wont play mp3s, is a common soulution just to restart the program that is not working correctly after installing codecs for it?
[07:40] <mikebot> tritium, oh
[07:40] <nalioth> Xaero: i did not see a question, just a large paste
[07:40] <tritium> mikebot: look at the descriptions, and pick one you'd like.  Then, sudo apt-get install <packagename>
[07:41] <kditty> xaero: www.ubuntu.com and forums
[07:41] <Toma-> anyone know why ndiswrapper wouldnt be making a wlan0 for me? ive got the right drivers install, -l shows them, -m has been run and still i have no wlan0
[07:41] <mikebot> tritium, okay, thanks
[07:41] <tritium> Xaero: here, but you have to ask a question
[07:41] <Xaero> the question is Im trying to install the ATI flgrx drivers.... the ones I download from the ATI site
[07:41] <Xaero> it wont install
[07:41] <nalioth> ubotu: tell Xaero about ati
[07:41] <tritium> Xaero: that's the problem.  Don't use those.
[07:41] <Psykus> why can't certain apps use sound at the same time?
[07:42] <nalioth> ubotu: tell Psykus about sound
[07:42] <Xaero> hi i already using all those wiki guides
[07:42] <Psykus> i'm trying to listen to music and play ut2004 at the same time, and ut2004 won't have any audio if something else is using audio when I launch it
[07:42] <Xaero> i've ran into a technical problem with configuring aticonfig
[07:42] <tonyyarusso> On that note, any idea when Skype will have a bugfix allowing other sounds while a call is in progress?
[07:42] <one> kditty:  I think so.
[07:42] <kditty> i tihnk i finally figured that out :D
[07:43] <tritium> Xaero: _don't_ use the downloads off of ati.com.  Follow the wiki page to install the ubuntu fglrx packages.
[07:43] <mikebot> how can i check to see if my audio drivers are wokring, cause i can't hear anything...
[07:43] <kditty> lol, im used to windows giving me warnings, i guess ill have to get used to not getting taht huh
[07:43] <Xaero> tritium.. i want the new ATI driver
[07:43] <Xaero> newest*
[07:43] <Psykus> that's one reason I love nvidia, such good linux support
[07:43] <FarSe3r> tritium: how do i test if my fglrx is installed correctly?
[07:43] <tritium> Xaero: we're not here to support that.  we support ubuntu packages
[07:43] <wastrel> FarSe3r:  glxinfo | grep direct
[07:44] <tritium> thanks, wastrel :)
[07:44] <FarSe3r> wastrel: thanks!
[07:44] <Xaero> i already tried the ubuntu fglrx driver... the 2D sucks
[07:44] <FarSe3r> wastrel: glxinfo, command not found :/
[07:44] <Xaero> still lousy 2D speed
[07:45] <tonyyarusso> How to turn of mic?  As in, make it not work?  (It says MM in alsamixer already...)
[07:45] <Xaero> is there an ubuntu package for the latest ATI driver? which is 8.23.7
[07:45] <ice_1963> lol
[07:45] <mikebot> how do i uninstall somethign i've downloaded via spt-get install?
[07:46] <wastrel> FarSe3r:  hm. ok...  you're running ubuntu breezy?
[07:46] <tonyyarusso> mikebot: sudo apt-get remove ...
[07:46] <tritium> mikebot: apt-get remove <packagename>.  man apt-get for more info
[07:46] <Toma-> tonyyarusso, um. unplug it? :)
[07:46] <ablyss> atp-get remove "name"
[07:46] <tonyyarusso> Toma-: Built-in.
[07:46] <mikebot> tonyyarusso, tritium thanks
[07:46] <geneo93> spt-get remove
[07:46] <Toma-> ic
[07:46] <Toma-> tonyyarusso, turn the boost off aswell?
[07:46] <Yoni> Hello all
[07:46] <tonyyarusso> Toma-: 'tis off.
[07:46] <mikebot> how can i check to see if my audio drivers are wokring, cause i can't hear anything...
[07:47] <Toma-> i c
[07:47] <tritium> mikebot: there's also a --purge option that also removes config files
[07:47] <mikebot> tritium, oh so even after apt-get remove, i'll still have config files?
[07:47] <tonyyarusso> Toma-: Ooo, wait, that's in playback.  I probably need capture.
[07:47] <Yoni> I waned to give a try & check out FreeNX while I'm @ work & I want to connect to my box remotely, any way... after I installed & started FreeNX, all I can get from my client is a blank screen with the X cursor, ay way to fix it?
[07:47] <tritium> mikebot: right
[07:47] <FarSe3r> wastrel: yes
[07:47] <tonyyarusso> How to switch from Playback to Capture view in alsamixer?
[07:48] <mikebot> tritium, do you know where gtypist installs to/
[07:48] <ice_1963> apt-get --purge remove file name :)
[07:48] <wastrel> FarSe3r:  try /usr/bin/glxinfo
[07:48] <V4Vendetta> !easysource
[07:48] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[07:48] <tritium> mikebot: dpkg -L gtypist to find out all the files in that package
[07:48] <mikebot> tritium, or rather, i mean, under the applications menu..heh
[07:49] <tritium> mikebot: nope, sorry.  It may not have a menu entry.
[07:49] <kditty> when i play an mp3 file, its default program is totem movie player, how can i change that?
[07:49] <FarSe3r> wastrel: ok, one sec
[07:49] <mikebot> tritium, it's okay..yeah, it doesn't..how can i run it then?
[07:49] <Toma-> tonyyarusso, move right till you find the channel?
[07:50] <tonyyarusso> Toma-: 'k.  I should really take a bit to read this man...
[07:50] <tritium> mikebot: run the command I gave you previously to find the binary (under some bin directory)
[07:50] <Toma-> anyone know why ndiswrapper wouldnt be making a wlan0 for me? ive got the right drivers install, -l shows them, -m has been run and still i have no wlan0
[07:50] <Nosgoth> hello people! help wanted!
[07:50] <Langly> modprobe ndiswrapper
[07:50] <tonyyarusso> ubotu: tell Nosgoth about helpme
[07:50] <tritium> You're hiring, Nosgoth?
[07:50] <FarSe3r> wastrel: i think there is something wrong... i'll reboot and come back later, thanks for your help
[07:50] <Langly> errm
[07:50] <mikebot> tritium, and double click that?
[07:50] <one> toma:  did you insert ?
[07:51] <Langly> yeah
[07:51] <tonyyarusso> Nosgoth: Ooo, I'm looking for a summer job.
[07:51] <Langly> I am tired tonight
[07:51] <Toma-> one, indeed.
[07:51] <kditty> toma- i went to the ubuntu forums and found help in the networking section really fast
[07:51] <kditty> have you tried that?
[07:51] <tritium> mikebot: no, that should be a path to the binary file.  Type it in on the command line
[07:51] <WIndows_Sucks_it> I have a Q: can the display (xorg) support 72 refresh rate? I have tried everything in xorg.conf and nothing works it just breaks
[07:52] <tritium> WIndows_Sucks_it: depends on your hardware
[07:52] <Nosgoth> sorry, i did not even speak english
[07:52] <mikebot> trit ah perfect, thanks
[07:52] <tritium> get it working, mikebot?
[07:52] <tonyyarusso> WIndows_Sucks_it: Have you read through !fixres for how to do that, or did you just jump right in?
[07:52] <WIndows_Sucks_it> tritum: the hardware supports it, at least it does on windows, I have the right drivers installed on ubuntu, 3d runs fine
[07:52] <mikebot> tritium, yeah, thanks
[07:52] <tritium> WIndows_Sucks_it: xorg certainly can too
[07:53] <Nosgoth> when can I find ubuntu audio drivers for dell optiplex GX1??
[07:53] <WIndows_Sucks_it> Ok, thanks
[07:53] <Toma-> kditty, no luck
[07:53] <WIndows_Sucks_it> Just making sure, I guess I'll just have to keep trying...
[07:53] <tritium> good night, ubunteros
[07:53] <Nosgoth> tritium, hablas espaol???
[07:54] <tritium> Nosgoth: I do.
[07:54] <WIndows_Sucks_it> could the problem possibly be that I have tv-out enabled?
[07:54] <Nosgoth> por fin alguien!!
[07:54] <tritium> !es
[07:54] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[07:54] <Emmerac> I LOVE Unbuntu!
[07:54] <WIndows_Sucks_it> all the sources I found on this (tv-out) were very thin
[07:54] <tritium> Nosgoth: however, I'm off to bed now.  Sorry...
[07:54] <Nosgoth> this people are sleepin'!!!!
[07:55] <WIndows_Sucks_it> seems like nobody uses tv-out on linux
[07:55] <Nosgoth> wait dude!!
[07:55] <tritium> Nosgoth: what's up?
[07:55] <mikebot> how can i check to see if my audio drivers are wokring, cause i can't hear anything...
[07:55] <Nosgoth> are you into ubuntu drivers??
[07:55] <Nosgoth> know somethin'?
[07:55] <tritium> mikebot: did you check the volume with alsamixer?
[07:56] <tritium> Nosgoth: which ones?
[07:56] <mikebot> tritium, how do i do that?
[07:56] <tritium> mikebot: also on the command line :)
[07:56] <Nosgoth> see, i got a Dell Optiplex GX1
[07:56] <Nosgoth> it is old
[07:56] <Psykus> out of curiosity, why exactly does the ubuntu wiki use https?
[07:56] <Nosgoth> so audio is not working
[07:57] <tritium> Nosgoth: did you check your mixer settings also/
[07:57] <tritium> ?
[07:57] <Nosgoth> is not even detected!!
[07:57] <tritium> Upi
[07:57] <tritium> You're sure?
[07:57] <Nosgoth> I tried it all!
[07:58] <Nosgoth> i have been searchin' on the web
[07:58] <mikebot> tritium, heh, i don't know much about ubuntu, i don't know what alsamixer is
[07:58] <tritium> Nosgoth: lspci doesn't list anything?  What's under /proc/asound?
[07:58] <tritium> mikebot: no worries ;)
[07:58] <Nosgoth> and i got nothing
[07:58] <tritium> Nosgoth: see above questions please
[07:58] <TeRaHuRtZ>  Is there a option I can set in my xorg.conf to disable taps on my touchpad, tpconfig doesn't seem to wanna work
[07:58] <Nosgoth> I type lspci, and i does not even appear
[07:59] <WIndows_Sucks_it> ok 1 more Q: can xorg support strange resolutions other than the standard ones?
[07:59] <Nosgoth> lspci just list already installed and working pci devices
[08:00] <tritium> Nosgoth: see my 2nd question please.
[08:00] <Nosgoth> OK!
[08:00] <ron_> hello
[08:00] <TeRaHuRtZ> Damn I've been to 3 channels so far and no one has an answer for me
[08:01] <WIndows_Sucks_it> well this is tough stuff TeRaHuRtZ
[08:01] <Nosgoth> nothin that refers the audio card
[08:01] <mikebot> tritium, wait, so i'm still confused as to what to do
[08:01] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: So your scripting works fabulously; can I do it recursively for a bunch of subdirectories at once?
[08:01] <Nosgoth> can you tell me about goods sites?
[08:01] <tritium> mikebot: type "alsamixer" at the command line
[08:01] <mikebot> tritqoh, i though there was some longer command
[08:02] <tritium> Nosgoth: cat /proc/asound/cards please
[08:02] <Nosgoth> so i can stop bother
[08:02] <mikebot> tritium, they are all high
[08:02] <mikebot> tritium, the problem arose when i was using easy ubuntu last night--after that my volume didn't work
[08:02] <tritium> anything muted (MM at the bottom)?
[08:02] <Nosgoth> nothing!
[08:03] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: back...
[08:03] <wastrel> zomg
[08:03] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: If it's not too much trouble that is :)
[08:03] <mikebot> tritium, some stuff is, but not for sound--it's like mic and headphones, etc.
[08:03] <tritium> Nosgoth: laptop?  Can you please search the output of "sudo dmidecode" please?
[08:03] <Nosgoth> I ran device manager and there is no sound card
[08:03] <wastrel> TeRaHuRtZ:  synaptics touchpad?
[08:03] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: not at all, I enjoy a good challenge :-)
[08:03] <tritium> mikebot: okay...not sure off the top of my head, and I need sleep...
[08:04] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: I'm in luck then.
[08:04] <TeRaHuRtZ> wastrel: of course
[08:04] <mikebot> tritium, okay, it's fine..thanks for all your help
[08:04] <mikebot> tritium, night
[08:04] <Nosgoth> not a laptop tritium, but the sound card it is integrated.
[08:04] <tritium> good night, mikebot
[08:04] <tritium> Nosgoth: okay.  Well, good luck.  I need to go...
[08:04] <Nosgoth> thanks dude.
[08:05] <TeRaHuRtZ> wastrel: any ideas?
[08:05] <wastrel> TeRaHuRtZ:  add Option "MaxTapTime" "0"
[08:05] <wastrel>    to the synaptics section in your xorg.conf
[08:05] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: I'm sure there is a way to do it recursively, but it is an added layer of complexity.  I think it requires using 'find' + 'xargs', and then possibly a loop also
[08:05] <TeRaHuRtZ> heh, bout time, even the gys in #xorg didn't know
[08:06] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: Oh boy.  Last time someone told me something involving xargs I was totally lost.  It worked though, as long as I didn't have to try to modify anything later.
[08:06] <wastrel> TeRaHuRtZ:  lots of fun touchpad options in /usr/share/doc/xorg-driver-synaptics/README.gz
[08:06] <WIndows_Sucks_it> the net is flooded with outdated incomplete xorg documents
[08:06] <TeRaHuRtZ> wastrel: Alright cool
[08:06] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: there is an alternative to xargs that I sometimes use as a 'plan b'; let me see if I can remember
[08:07] <danny_osl> any idea on where I can find out where DRI is failing?   Xorg.0.log says it loads properly, glxinfo indicates it hasn't loaded...where's the in-between?
[08:07] <suture> heh finaly got borderless/transparent windows in metacity
[08:07] <Nosgoth> somebody has an DELL OPTIPLEX GX1????
[08:08] <philhanson> Hello all
[08:08] <ipfw> Xenguy: xfce is sweet
[08:08] <ipfw> anyone tried the "xgl" stuff that novell is pushing ?
[08:08] <philhanson> New user here
[08:08] <ipfw> Nosgoth: those Optiplex boxen can take a beating though ;)
[08:08] <tonyyarusso> Does Gimp have red-eye removal?
[08:08] <Psykus> trying to compile an app, and the configure script is saying "configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.0.0) were not met.", however looking in the synaptic package manager, it says I have glib2.0 installed?
[08:09] <Xenguy> ipfw: yeah, minimalist and lean and very functional (good for older hardware too)
[08:09] <tonyyarusso> Psykus: You need the -dev package probably.
[08:09] <philhanson> The built in media player Totem
[08:09] <Psykus> ok, thanks
[08:09] <FlannelKing> ipfw: I downloaded the liveCD yesterday, heh.
[08:09] <philhanson> I cannot play any .avi nor .mpg with it
[08:09] <WIndows_Sucks_it> so anyone looking forward to Vista?
[08:10] <ron_> no :p
[08:10] <mikebot> how do i make a desktop link that will run a terminal line?
[08:10] <mikebot> like i want a link to run cd et/cbin/blah
[08:10] <FlannelKing> WIndows_Sucks_it: you mean XP2?
[08:11] <WIndows_Sucks_it> yes
[08:11] <jorge_> man I'm so screwed
[08:11] <shreevatsa> how do I use the Alt-F2 run thing to execute some alias that's there in my .bashrc?
[08:11] <Nosgoth> ipfw, I've got 9 of those!
[08:11] <blanky> pingu you here
[08:11] <WIndows_Sucks_it> the best bloatware in the world
[08:11] <tonyyarusso> WIndows_Sucks_it: I've made a point of notifying my Windows using friends of the absolutely ridiculous hardware requirements for it, and definitely no.  XP will be the last Windows I buy if I have any say in the matter.
[08:11] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: I think that's how its going to be for a lot of people
[08:11] <blanky> quit
[08:11] <Psykus> tonyyarusso, that's probably only if you plan on using the new GUI
[08:11] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: especially if they do the TCM thing.
[08:11] <WIndows_Sucks_it> any predictions on if Vista will be bad enough to flop among users?
[08:12] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: something along these lines (this uses 'Plan B' alternative to xargs, a more traditioanl unixy method): find . -iname *html -exec sed -i -e 's/<br\/>//g' {} \;
[08:12] <WIndows_Sucks_it> or will it rule the market anyways?
[08:12] <Psykus> which won't be turned on by default if you have a system that can't run it
[08:12] <s_spiff> anyone here tried installng enlightenment?
[08:12] <FlannelKing> WIndows_Sucks_it: it depends on how much they still remove ;)
[08:12] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Yeah.  I mean seriously, can you really expect people to blow $2000 on a new computer just to upgrade their OS, when here I can pop up Synaptic and be done?
[08:12] <Nosgoth> unfortunately, breezy DOES NOT detect the audio card!!!
[08:12] <shreevatsa> I might consider using Windows when it has a decent bash shell :)
[08:12] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: eh, I don't think people will switch to linux, well, not right away.  Theyll keep using XP for a good while.
[08:12] <shreevatsa> (not really, not even then...)
[08:12] <Toma-> tonyyarusso, because they dont know any better.
[08:12] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: 'k, will give it a shot.
[08:12] <tonyyarusso> Toma-: That's where we come in.
[08:13] <FlannelKing> just hope that by the time they buy a new computer, they have the option (real option) of Linux.
[08:13] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: as an example; backup files and modify to suit your needs
[08:13] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: I've had a fair bit of luck starting people down that path when XP breaks though.
[08:13] <Psykus> shreevatsa, they have bash for windows
[08:13] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: oh, yeah.  Definately.
[08:13] <shreevatsa> Psykus: oh, really? Do you mean Cygwin?
[08:13] <Nosgoth> COME ON PEOPLE!!! HELP ME HERE!!
[08:14] <WIndows_Sucks_it> the only reason I vaguely use windows xp is for the graphics tablet which I haven't been able to install on linux, I doubt I will ever get online on windows ever again on my own computer (i'm losing intrest in games too)
[08:14] <Toma-> shreevatsa, no, http://www.steve.org.uk/Software/bash/
[08:14] <s_spiff> guys need help with Enlightenment!
[08:14] <Psykus> games work pretty good in linux via cedega
[08:14] <Nosgoth> nobody has an DELL OPTIPLEX GX1??
[08:14] <FlannelKing> philc: you'll need to load mpg codecs, and avi codecs.  Avi comes with w32codecs, and mpg shouldn't be too hard to get either.  But I've no experience with either, so I can't tell you specifics.  Someone probably can though.
[08:14] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: There's a girl upstairs, broke MSN --> Gaim, broke IE --> Firefox, broke MS Office --> OpenOffice, broke lots of stuff --> Is probably going to consult with her mom about installing Ubuntu as a dual-boot.
[08:15] <Psykus> and a bunch of games have native linux versions
[08:15] <Psykus> Nosgoth, not me, I built my system :)
[08:15] <WIndows_Sucks_it> The performance on high end games is not there yet though
[08:15] <tonyyarusso> Games are less of an issue for my contacts, since they're mainly students and family, and not into that.
[08:15] <shreevatsa> Toma-: Thanks, that might save me some day when I'm forced to use Windows...
[08:16] <Psykus> works really well with the games i've played on it
[08:16] <WIndows_Sucks_it> PC games are starting to get boring and repetitive...
[08:16] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: yeah, the funny thing is, for MOST people, linux would work fine.  checking email and the like.  Although I haven't had any experience with mail clients.  And have heard some of htem have problems (or maybe it's that there are no good user friendly ones), but yeah.  For most people, linux suffices.
[08:16] <mikebot> anyonew know how i can see what's wrong with my audio?
[08:16] <WIndows_Sucks_it>  saw Doom 3 on cedega, not very good fps
[08:16] <Psykus> doom 3 has a linux version though
[08:17] <WIndows_Sucks_it> yea fair enough, that was a little while back for me
[08:17] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Thunderbird rocks, fyi.  If they have an already Linux-using friend do the install process, and deal with things like !RestrictedFormats, then yeah, it would be perfectly functional and usable for the majority of users.
[08:17] <Nosgoth> Let me put it in other words, Somebody has a cs4236 integrated audio card????
[08:18] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: yeah, I haven't had time to install it on my windows box and try it out.  soon though.. whenever I have down time that I can stand to do without checking my mail constantly.
[08:18] <WIndows_Sucks_it> btw, does anyone know of a good NES emulator on linux, preferably opengl? :-)
[08:18] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Hehe.  Yeah, I talked my dad into trying it, just for kicks.  He got back to me, and was really pleased about being able to detach attachments from messages.
[08:19] <mikebot> anyone know how i can see what's wrong with my audio?
[08:19] <tonyyarusso> How best to blank screen & turn off backlight on a laptop without closing the lid?  (ie, a command)
[08:20] <WIndows_Sucks_it> thunderbird is the best for average traffic mail usage, people that get insane amounts of mail tend to not like it
[08:20] <tonyyarusso> WIndows_Sucks_it: Do you know why?
[08:21] <WIndows_Sucks_it> I'm not sure, I can just deduce that it's the features, they tend to like outlook 2003
[08:21] <wastrel> yeah t-bird doesn't manage large amounts of messages easily
[08:21] <tonyyarusso> WIndows_Sucks_it: Hmm.  If we knew which features that would help give direction.
[08:21] <FlannelKing> one thing Ive heard about tbird, is you can only use one outgoing mailserver
[08:21] <tonyyarusso> wastrel: Do you have some further input?
[08:21] <wastrel> what's the question?
[08:21] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: That much seems to be true.
[08:21] <Toma-> anyone know why ndiswrapper wouldnt be making a wlan0 for me? ive got the right drivers install, -l shows them, -m has been run and still i have no wlan0
[08:21] <FlannelKing> and, 'large amounts', is that total? like, archives? or just a lot of traffic?
[08:22] <tonyyarusso> wastrel: What features does it need to manage large amounts do you think?
[08:22] <FlannelKing> first, define 'largeamounts'? throughput? storage?
[08:22] <Paedrigh> I've installed Apache2, but can't create new folders or files in /var/www... Please help me
[08:22] <WIndows_Sucks_it> like 400 emails per day large, but still, who gets that much mail? service departments? ebay power sellers?
[08:22] <FlannelKing> yeah, tonyyarusso that's one thing keeping mehesitant.  since, I need to be able to use mutliple servers.
[08:22] <shreevatsa> Does evolution work on Windows?
[08:22] <wastrel> i'm just talking about user interface.  selecting and managing messages in the UI
[08:22] <s_spiff> has anyone here tried Enlightenment?
[08:23] <wastrel> tends to be clunky
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: I wonder if 1.5 fixes that....  Might have to check release notes.
[08:23] <FlannelKing> eh, I can deal with that.
[08:23] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: no, I checked recently.  Long after 1.5 was out.
[08:23] <Xenguy> s_spiff: a bit old school now I think
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Nuts.  Soon I hope then.
[08:23] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: in my mind, that's shortsighted of Mozilla.
[08:23] <shukhrat> Hello all
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Did you tell them that?
[08:23] <Xenguy> s_spiff: I could be wrong, but I think there is 'better eye candy' nowadays
[08:23] <Paedrigh> I've installed Apache2, but can't create new folders or files in /var/www... Please help me
[08:24] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: no, I haven't had time to do anything.  I wen't over there the other day, didn't have much activity.
[08:24] <wastrel> i set up an imap server locally so i can switch clients easily.  i use mutt mostly and t-bird when i want gui stuff.  evo seems to have improved a lot since i last tried it.  there's also balsa and sylpheed which i haven't used for a while.
[08:24] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Yeah, the channels are a bit slow.  I was thinking e-mail it.
[08:24] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: use sudo, and set permissions as necessary
[08:24] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: where email it though?
[08:24] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: er, with chmod
[08:24] <linuxboy> Does anybody know how I can make a PXE boot floppy?
[08:24] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Dunno.  I have some time; I'll look around.  If I find something, I'll send off a message for you.
[08:25] <FlannelKing> wastrel: yeah, that's what I want to do.  except I have no idea how, or the specifics of imap.  Any good links?
[08:25] <Xenguy> wastrel: sylpheed is really light/fast/lean
[08:25] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: eh, I cna look too.  No use wasting your time.  help some people with ubuntu ;)
[08:25] <Paedrigh> Xenguy: thank you, but I'm not very good with commands. Is tthere now graphical way? :?
[08:25] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: When I can...  (Limit to what I know.)
[08:25] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: nautilus I suppose...
[08:26] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: laugh
[08:26] <wastrel> FlannelKing:  i just searched the ubuntu forums - chose dovecot as the server, have used courier-imapd in the past - both setup pretty easily.   i have fetchmail->procmail->maildir, then dovecot reads the maildir for me.
[08:26] <mikebot> anyone know how i can see what's wrong with my audio?
[08:27] <FlannelKing> wastrel: yeah, alright. so, how does it all work?the IMAP server checks your external accounts? or what? (mail newbie here, or at least, technical aspects)
[08:27] <shukhrat> how to use broken filter
[08:27] <shukhrat> ?
[08:27] <FlannelKing> shukhrat: what's a broken filter?
[08:27] <tonyyarusso> How to play an audio file as if it were going through the microphone?  For instance, say I want to play something on my computer for someone I'm talking to with Skype, and want to do it directly rather than just hoping my built-in mic picks up the speakers decently?
[08:27] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: but really, for stuff like this, you'll do yourself a favour to learn the commands :-)
[08:27] <shreevatsa> mikebot: I don't... but what's wrong with it?
[08:28] <Psykus> hm, getting all sorts of compile errors when i'm trying to compile this, http://www.metatheme.org/
[08:28] <Paedrigh> Xenguy: Teach me master, and I shall remember...
[08:28] <wastrel> FlannelKing:  fetchmail is a pop client that pulls mail from my accounts, feeds it to procmail which filters out spam & delivers everything to maildirs in my home directory.  dovecot is configured to read those maildirs, and i set up my clients to talk to dovecot as the imap server
[08:28] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: hah :-)
[08:28] <FlannelKing> linuxboy: I imagine you can find some sort of image on the web, then you just dd it over.
[08:28] <Psykus> i tried to apt-get it, it said it was referred to by another package, but not actually in any of my repositories
[08:28] <mikebot> shreevatsa, i don't know--it worked (both xmms and totem) until last night when i tried to use easy ubuntu
[08:28] <shukhrat> FlanneKing when i install upgrades Ubuntu say me that i have one broken pakage and offer use broken filter
[08:28] <mikebot> shreevatsa, now i don't hear anything, with the ovlume up, it plugged in, &c.
[08:28] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: ls -ld /var/www
[08:28] <linuxboy> FlannelKing: been there, done that
[08:29] <Paedrigh> so, do I write sudo ls -ld /var/www ?
[08:29] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: sudo can never hurt
[08:29] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: I doubt that...
[08:29] <shreevatsa> mikebot: what do you see? What errors does it give? (I don't know anything much, really; but still could be of help?)
[08:29] <tonyyarusso> Xenguy: In general I mean.  ls is pretty harmless.
[08:29] <Xenguy> tonyyarusso: point taken; in this case, context
[08:30] <mikebot> shreevatsa, i was getting an error with xmms, but now i'm just getting no volume
[08:30] <wastrel> well i have made excellent progress with pymol this evening.
[08:30] <FlannelKing> ah, wastrel, so basically I just send it to the imap server after Ive downloaded?  alright.
[08:30] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: tonyyarusso is right; sudo should only be used when necessary; try first without
[08:30] <shreevatsa> mikebot: Try playing a file with mplayer at the command prompt, and see what happens?
[08:30] <Paedrigh> Oh, I was a bit too fast
[08:31] <FlannelKing> wastrel: does it work the same way for sending? or do you just send it, then send it to imap as well?
[08:31] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: no worries
[08:31] <wastrel> FlannelKing:  you're not really sending it to the imap server.  the imap server is reading the directory where your mail is delivered to.
[08:31] <mikebot> shreevatsa, how do i do that?
[08:31] <shukhrat> my Ubuntu haven't cirillic charset how to install new charset's ?
[08:31] <Paedrigh> it says [drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2006-03-10 12:26 /var/www] 
[08:31] <pulaski> hi ubuntu live is a gas
[08:31] <wastrel> FlannelKing:  for sending it depends... heh mail is complicated.  either tell your clients to use your ISP's mail server, or setup a local mail server and have your clients use that.
[08:31] <shreevatsa> mikebot: start the terminal, and type "mplayer <path to file>/<name of file>"... that is, if mplayer is installed :)
[08:31] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: OK, so you need 'sudo' to create subdirectories under /var/www
[08:31] <viller> hi
[08:31] <Hammer> mail
[08:32] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: is that what you want to do?
[08:32] <shreevatsa> mikebot: what is "easy ubuntu", btw?
[08:32] <Paedrigh> affirmative
[08:32] <nalioth> !easyubuntu
[08:32] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[08:32] <mikebot> shreevatsa, some program that is supposed to be useful for new ubuntu users, getting things like sound drivers and nvidia, etc.
[08:33] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: so, mkdir somedirectorythingie
[08:33] <jhane> ctc
[08:33] <jhane> helo
[08:33] <jhane> helo
[08:33] <Hammer> hi..
[08:33] <mikebot> !paste
[08:33] <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.
[08:34] <pulaski> hi jhane
[08:34] <jhane> helo
[08:34] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: if you want a regular user to be able to put files in that area, then you can change group permissions or some such
[08:34] <jhane> asl plz
[08:34] <Ramnath> do i have to get cedega to play warcraft3 and doom3?
[08:34] <jhane> noh
[08:35] <pulaski> I'm using ubuntu live on a friends lapop.  bueatiful.
[08:35] <Paedrigh> Xenguy: what chmod would you reccomend to set to be able to do so?
[08:35] <mikebot> shreevatsa, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9993
[08:35] <LePoulpe301> hi all !
[08:35] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: chgrp yourmainuser /var/www
[08:36] <wastrel> FlannelKing:  oh, do you mean for saving copies of sent messages?  the client talks to the imap server, which writes a copy to your sent box
[08:36] <mindkill> i was installing ubuntu 5.10, it completed installing and told me to remove CD, then the system restarted. after restarting (and booting) it was again installing something and some error was caused that said some packages are not installed. the system started in console mode. how can i switch to gnome or even know that it is installed properly?
[08:36] <LePoulpe301> my agp controller is not detected on my new motherboard ; i'm lost ; anyone may help me ?
[08:36] <student> tai
[08:36] <Hammer> mindkill: X
[08:36] <FlannelKing> wastrel: yeah, saving copies of sent messages.
[08:36] <mindkill> root@futurex:~# X
[08:36] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: then: chmod -R g+s /var/www
[08:37] <mindkill> root@futurex:~#
[08:37] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: then see what ls -ld /var/www says again
[08:37] <Ramnath> so wine can run doom3 and warcraft3?
[08:37] <shreevatsa> mikebot: I'm sorry; I don't see anything amiss there... sorry I couldn't help
[08:37] <mikebot> shreevatsa, that's okay..thanks anyway
[08:37] <shukhrat> my Ubuntu haven't cirillic charset how to install new charset's ?
[08:37] <mikebot> shreevatsa, is there a way i could reinstall all my sound drivers?
[08:37] <oklinux> is ubuntu run ok on 256 rams ?
[08:38] <z2274743> oklinux - yes
[08:38] <mindkill> Hammer: X just returns the command prompt again
[08:38] <ara> ramanth : get cedega or wine for warcraft3, doom3 can run native
[08:38] <oklinux> what about 512 ?
[08:38] <shreevatsa> mikebot: You should ask someone else :)
[08:38] <WIndows_Sucks_it> wine works ok on warcraft
[08:38] <mikebot> shreevatsa, okay, thanks
[08:38] <defrysk> oklinux, yes
[08:38] <z2274743> oklinux - 512 definitely.
[08:38] <WIndows_Sucks_it> just ok though, it's not an action game anyways
[08:39] <WIndows_Sucks_it> whats the minimum memory requirement?
[08:39] <tonyyarusso> Anyone know when the bug where Skype makes all other sounds not work during a call will be fixed?
[08:39] <oklinux> so use 512 defrysk ?
[08:39] <mikebot> anyone know about reinstalling all sound drivers?
[08:39] <defrysk> oklinux, more ram = more speed/snappier
[08:40] <tonyyarusso> oklinux: The actual spec stated is 128 for Ubuntu with X is 128, so 512 should be plenty, but more is always a luxury.
[08:40] <shukhrat> my Ubuntu haven't cirillic charset how to install new charset's ?
[08:40] <WIndows_Sucks_it> I installed minix 3 on a 486, can't believe it still worked
[08:40] <Paedrigh> Xenguy: it says it's not allowed to perform the operations. I tried sudo chmod -R g+s /var/www as well, but nothing happend
[08:40] <oklinux> will try thanks defrysk and tonyyarusso
[08:40] <mindkill> Hammer: X just returns the command prompt again
[08:41] <tonyyarusso> Yeah, Ubuntu specs are 128 RAM, 2GB hard disk.  Vista can't claim that!
[08:41] <Hammer> mindkill: i'd try reinstalling X
[08:41] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: hrm, what does 'ls -ld /var/www' say again?
[08:41] <Ramnath> doom3 doesn't seem to want to install itself
[08:41] <shukhrat> why my apache when i restarted ubuntu not runing ?
[08:41] <kditty> is there a general chat for ubuntu where i wont be disrupting any help?
[08:41] <Xenguy> kditty: ubuntu-offtopic
[08:41] <Hammer> kditty: #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:42] <kditty> ok thanks
[08:42] <Hammer> i'm on a server install now :-p
[08:42] <Frogzoo> Ramnath: -> http://www.doomsdayhq.com/
[08:42] <mindkill> Hammer: how can i reinstall X
[08:42] <shukhrat> why my apache when i restarted ubuntu not runing ?
[08:42] <Paedrigh> Xenguy: drwxr-sr-x 3 root omnius 4096 2006-03-10 12:26 /var/www
[08:42] <Hammer> mindkill: you can try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:43] <Hammer> X
[08:43] <s_spiff> Xenguy, what do u think is better now?
[08:43] <shreevatsa> mikebot: If you don't get help here, head to the ubuntu forums... maybe just the people who can help you are asleep right now :)
[08:43] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: OK. sudo chmod g+w /var/www
[08:44] <Xenguy> s_spiff: if you have fast hardware, then gnome or kde I suppose
[08:44] <s_spiff> Xenguy,  theres openbox, flux, black, meta, e-17 ..i'm all confused as to what to use..
[08:44] <Paedrigh> Xenguy: it's not reporting anything...
[08:44] <s_spiff> i'm on gnome
[08:44] <s_spiff>  but i need a bettwe window maker..
[08:44] <s_spiff>  metacity is quite crappy
[08:44] <mindkill> Hammer: i think my installation is broken. how can i only reinstall the packages?
[08:44] <s_spiff>  so i was tryin to make gnome Enlightened Gnome..
[08:44] <LePoulpe301> anyone may help me for an agp issue ?
[08:44] <Psykus> warcraft 3 runs really good under cedega, dunno how it is under wine
[08:44] <Xenguy> s_spiff: check out xfce4 - it is lean and well-designed.
[08:44] <Hammer> mindkill: um... dunno
[08:44] <brent__> hello
[08:45] <s_spiff> ok...
[08:45] <brent__> does anyone else have a problem burning cds?
[08:45] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: can you elaborate?  What exact output are you getting?
[08:45] <Frogzoo> brent__: what's the problem?
[08:45] <mindkill> Hammer: can i skip the partitioning and other stuff. and go directly to the installation of the base system and packages?
[08:45] <brent__> they won't burn
[08:45] <Ramnath> cedega costs 55 bucks a year... interesting
[08:45] <brent__> I keep getting asked to insert a blank cd
[08:45] <Frogzoo> brent__: you mean they come out as coasters? or burn fails?
[08:45] <gilgarath> I have an odd question, is there a default password for root ?
[08:46] <brent__> but a blank cd is already inside the cd burner drive
[08:46] <Paedrigh> Xenguy: my mistake, it says: drwxrwsr-x 3 root omnius 4096 2006-03-10 12:26 /var/www
[08:46] <wastrel> mindkill:  try startx
[08:46] <Frogzoo> !tell gilgarath about sudo
[08:46] <debugger> hi
[08:46] <s_spiff> Xenguy, wher can i find details on it? wiki has something...but talks about 'maininclusion xfce4'
[08:46] <brent__> they don't even start burning
[08:46] <Ramnath> is there a flash-like program for linux?
[08:46] <wastrel> mindkill:  what did sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg do?
[08:46] <brent__> this is with nautilus-burn and serpentine
[08:46] <wastrel> !flash
[08:46] <mindkill> xserver-xorg is broken or not fully installed
[08:46] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:47] <Xenguy> !tell s_spiff about xfce
[08:47] <brent__> has anybody else had this issue?
[08:47] <wastrel> mindkill:  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:47] <debugger> I have linux-image-2.6.12-10-686, but the latest available sources is kernel-source-2.6.11.   where is the 2.6.12 sources package?
[08:47] <V4Vendetta> hey
[08:47] <oklinux> 512 is much better
[08:47] <ron_> anyone know of a good news reader for ubuntu?
[08:47] <V4Vendetta> who was just talking to me, i'm Hammer
[08:48] <wastrel>  ron_ try pan
[08:48] <nalioth> ubotu: tell gilgarath about root
[08:48] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: good, you should now be able to work under that area with just normal user permission/status
[08:48] <Frogzoo> brent__: if in serpentine -> edit -> prefs ... do you have your cd selected?
[08:48] <nalioth> ron_: what type of news?
[08:48] <ron_> i'm using pan atm
[08:48] <Frogzoo> ron_: pan works for me
[08:48] <ron_> seems slow :/
[08:48] <Paedrigh> Xenguy: I bow before the master! Thank you for helping me :)
[08:48] <brent__> other applications like k3b and nerolinux  work
[08:49] <V4Vendetta> !easysource
[08:49] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[08:49] <Xenguy> Paedrigh: heh, no need to grovel ;-)  yw, good luck
[08:49] <oklinux> tonyyarusso much better with 512 ram
[08:49] <mindkill> i'll consider reinstalling the wholething.
[08:49] <mindkill> :+
[08:49] <brent__> yes sepentine sees my drive, it just won't let me record to it, neither will nautilus-burn. It just keeps asking for a blank cd with at least 8MB
[08:49] <tonyyarusso> oklinux: Oh yes.
[08:50] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: but it wont on 40mb :(
[08:50] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Dude, what boxes do you have?
[08:51] <brent__> does anyone know why nautilus-burn would be not letting my cd burner burn anything?
[08:51] <V4Vendetta> 5gb for / is plenty right, if /usr and /tmp have their own partitions ?
[08:51] <Psykus> brent__, try using another CD?
[08:51] <brent__> did that a few times, even different brands
[08:51] <rsyncx> I installed aol server, and I want to disable it for meanwhile, i wonder where do i go and do that?
[08:51] <Psykus> oh
[08:51] <rsyncx> I am a n00b
[08:51] <brent__> its not my drive because it works fine on windows
[08:51] <Psykus> no clue then
[08:52] <gilgarath> ok another question I can read my ntfs partitions through disks in the administration menu but cannot chmod them in media :(
[08:52] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: old toshiba laptops.  8mb built in, with the 32mb expansion card (thank goodness) trying to install SOMETHING on it.  But, don't have an external serial CDrom drive, so it's difficult (autodetect can't detect laptop hardware, since I isntall from a desktop)
[08:52] <rsyncx> something rc.update delete aolserver default.
[08:52] <rsyncx> something like
[08:52] <tonyyarusso> FlannelKing: Oh man.
[08:52] <Ramnath> i still don' t understand how to install things i download off of the internet
[08:52] <tonyyarusso> Ramnath: Such as?
[08:52] <Ramnath> tar.gz files
[08:52] <LePoulpe301> anyone may help me for an agp issue ?
[08:52] <Frogzoo> brent__: I don't see serpentine or nautilus-cd-burn with suid - so I think it's maybe a permission problem?
[08:52] <rsyncx> is there command for disabling certain services from running?
[08:52] <brent__> I have searched the ubuntu forums up and down and haven't found a solution for it. This is the major fault of ubuntu, otherwise I an in love with it.
[08:52] <polpak> Ramnath: most often you don't need to
[08:52] <shukhrat> why my apache when i restarted ubuntu not runing ?
[08:52] <polpak> Ramnath: that's what apt is for
[08:53] <rsyncx> shukhrat, check /etc/default/apache2
[08:53] <V4Vendetta> 5gb for / is plenty right, if /usr and /tmp have their own partitions ?
[08:53] <Frogzoo> brent__: just btw, I tried a blank CD in serpentine, & disk usage = empty, so maybe same problem here
[08:53] <Tanzanian> im new in Ubuntu Help with mp3 playing
[08:53] <FlannelKing> tonyyarusso: Im sure I can get something to run.  actually, I ahve.  just... havent found a 16bit PCMCIA wireless card (and havent bought oneoffline) yet.  bugger.
[08:53] <polpak> brent__:  what's the problem?
[08:53] <rsyncx> V4Vendetta, you'd be pushing it.
[08:53] <Madpilot> !mp3
[08:53] <ubotu> methinks mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:53] <V4Vendetta> rsyncx, hmm that's how i did it
[08:54] <brent__> frogzoo, I thought that might be it, but is that normal? Serpentine does work with sudo
[08:54] <Madpilot> Tanzanian, see ubotu's link above ^^^
[08:54] <thenuke> Ramnath: like you have been told, most software you find and install with apt-get & synaptic..  but .tar.gz is a compressed package, tar -xzfv uncompresses it
[08:54] <brent__> but what would I need to do to fix this?
[08:54] <polpak> V4Vendetta: even with /usr and tmp on / I only use like 8 gigs
[08:54] <rsyncx> V4Vendetta, i'd put 10 gigs at least unless you do usr.bin / lib elsewhere
[08:54] <brent__> polpak, I cannot get nautilus-burn to work
[08:54] <V4Vendetta> rsyncx, usr/bin is somewhere else
[08:55] <V4Vendetta> polpak, yea i have /usr on a 20gb partition
[08:55] <brent__> it just keeps asking me for a blank cd with at least 8MB
[08:55] <polpak> V4Vendetta: lot of empty space then =p
[08:55] <V4Vendetta> polpak, / doesn't actually store anything really..
[08:55] <shukhrat> rsyncx it say's # 0 = start on boot; 1 = don't start on boot
[08:55] <shukhrat> NO_START=1      how i can change  this ?
[08:56] <brent__> my cd burner is kind of old, could this have something to do with it? it works just fine in windows though
[08:56] <rsyncx> V4Vendetta, you might need separate partitions off if data changes alot in the particular one.
[08:56] <V4Vendetta> rsyncx, what do you mean?
[08:56] <V4Vendetta> rsyncx, i have 4 partitions, one for / one for /tmp one for /usr and one for /home
[08:57] <rsyncx> rsyncx, say you do alot of databases , the  /var/db , would be a candidate for its own parition.
[08:57] <shukhrat> NO_START=1      how i can change  this ?
[08:57] <rsyncx> put 0
[08:57] <shukhrat> rsyncx it say's # 0 = start on boot; 1 = don't start on boot
[08:57] <V4Vendetta> rsyncx, oh, i never use databases
[08:58] <rsyncx> V4Vendetta, fragementation prediction code is so good nowadays, and people have so much space, that partitioning doesn't matter, in terms of fragmentation.
[08:59] <V4Vendetta> rsyncx, yea, i think i did it right this time
[08:59] <rsyncx> on gentoo i put, /var/tmp and /usr/portage in different folder, because it changes cardinally every day, for example. with ubuntu you have no such worrries.
[08:59] <brent__> is there a command that I need to issue to let me use the burner, if it is permission problem, because I'd love to hear a solution that easy.
[08:59] <rsyncx> but what  is the command for disabling aolserver ?
[08:59] <rsyncx> or disabling a service?
[08:59] <rsyncx> like apache, exim etc.
[09:00] <Frogzoo> brent__: nautilus-cd-burner works for me fine, but serpentine doesn't seem to want to burn random files
[09:00] <rsyncx> i don't have anything on aolserver in /etc/default dir and i have no idea where to look
[09:00] <dabaR> rsyncx: sudo invoke-rc.d serviceName stop
[09:00] <DoctorX> Hey room, having a trouble installing. I get to the part where it loads up to partition but after that nothing happens.
[09:00] <DoctorX> Just the blue background w/ a grey bar at the bottom.
[09:01] <Frogzoo> DoctorX: mebbe try disabling acpi - sometimes that's needed
[09:01] <V4Vendetta> !easyubuntu
[09:01] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[09:01] <DoctorX> Forgzoo, whats acpi?
[09:01] <danny_osl> in case anybody's wondering, I solved my DRI problem
[09:02] <DoctorX> I'll disable it but I'd like to atleast understand it too. :)
[09:02] <Frogzoo> DoctorX: just from the install boot prompt, pass 'linux acpi=off'     acpi is a power mgt system
[09:02] <vars> how do i tell what is the best sound driver to instal, i am using server wioth flucbox
[09:02] <danny_osl> glxinfo | grep OpenDriver indicated it could not find a specific driver in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/ which is an empty folder
[09:02] <DoctorX> It is a lappy
[09:03] <danny_osl> so I created a symlink from /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri --> /usr/lib/dri
[09:03] <danny_osl> since debian's packages reside in the former, but ubuntu's are in the latter
[09:04] <Frogzoo> vars: consider installing 'esd' - it allows playing multiple sound sources
[09:04] <Frogzoo> !esd
[09:04] <Frogzoo> !tell vars about esd
[09:05] <DoctorX> Unrelated question, is it possible to use a laptop as a monitor for a desktop?
[09:06] <LePoulpe301> anyone may help me for an agp issue ?   http://pastebin.com/595909
[09:07] <Frogzoo> DoctorX: no - only as an x server
[09:07] <Imsdle> can somebody help me?
[09:07] <Imsdle> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[09:07] <Imsdle>   skype: Depends: libqt3c102-mt (>= 3:3.3.3.2) but 3:3.3.3-7ubuntu3 is installed
[09:07] <Frogzoo> !tell Imsdle about skype
[09:09] <V4Vendetta> how do i enable the control+alt+delete brings up gnome taskmanager?
[09:09] <damian_> can i safely remove gnome and most of its programs
[09:09] <Tanzanian> Anyone in here aware of a p2p program for Ubuntu... please let me know, Im knew
[09:10] <Madpilot> Tanzanian, BitTorrent works automatically
[09:10] <damian_> do i need gnome to run gnome programs or is only having gtk fine
[09:10] <damian_> i use xfce now and no longer need gnome installed
[09:10] <Madpilot> damian_, you just need the gtk libs
[09:11] <Madpilot> damian_, just like you only need the kde libs to run KDE stuff - I run k3b in Gnome
[09:11] <damian_> Madpilot: and so i can safely remove most of gnome then
[09:11] <Tanzanian> madpilot: i just cant start it.... im looking for MP3 and Videos... how do i go about it?
[09:11] <Ramnath> doesn't anyone find the lack of straightforwardness that linux seems to have frustrating?
[09:11] <cfk> I have 3 vga cards plugged in - how do I enable the other 2?
[09:11] <Madpilot> Tanzanian, find a site with torrent files, click on a .torrent link, it should just work
[09:12] <Tanzanian> oooh ok
[09:12] <FlannelKing> Ramnath: straight forward regarding what?
[09:12] <Tanzanian> Madpilot: Thanks let me check
[09:12] <Ramnath> windows was simple
[09:12] <Madpilot> Ramnath, it's more straightforward than MS, in a lot of ways - but there's more stuff to do in Linux
[09:13] <Ramnath> just double click an icon and every thing was installed
[09:13] <Frogzoo> V4Vendetta: I'm guessing   system -> prefs -> kb shortcuts
[09:13] <DoctorX> Is there a command to check the disc integrity before starting the install?
[09:13] <Frogzoo> !tell Tanzanian about azureus
[09:13] <FlannelKing> Ramnath: its the same way with linux,  with a reasonable packaging system, once you get the software, you double click, it installs.
[09:14] <damian_> can i SAFELY remove ubuntu desktop? what exactly will that get rid of?
[09:14] <Ramnath> it didn't take a bunch of time to get games running in ms...
[09:14] <FlannelKing> damian_: I believe it's just a pseudo package.
[09:14] <Madpilot> damian_, ubuntu-desktop isn't important
[09:14] <Frogzoo> Ramnath: for any OS there's a learning curve - just for doze, it's 'assumed' knowledge
[09:14] <FlannelKing> Ramnath: take that up with the game makers.  They're the ones who only make games for windows (and thus we have to tweak things to get them to run on linux)
[09:14] <damian_> yeah just figured out thanks anyway
[09:14] <Healot> ubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package...
[09:15] <PuMpErNiCkLe> damian_: ubuntu-desktop is an empty package that depends on the entire ubuntu base system
[09:15] <Healot> it lists the other packages to be installed... safe to remove, but not recommended
[09:16] <Ramnath> hahaha
[09:16] <Ramnath> the learning curve on linux is wonderful
[09:16] <do_me_nice> why dont i have the unmount command
[09:16] <do_me_nice> and how do i get it
[09:16] <do_me_nice> ?
[09:16] <boyeestudio> hello
[09:16] <ddonky> it's called 'umount' no 't'
[09:16] <Frogzoo> do_me_nice: 'umount'
[09:16] <Madpilot> ddonky, you mean no first n :P
[09:17] <ddonky> lol
[09:17] <do_me_nice> aww
[09:17] <do_me_nice> thanks
[09:17] <Ramnath> i still can't get anything to run on that wine program
[09:17] <ddonky> too late here, for that kind of talk :)
[09:17] <ddonky> umout
[09:17] <Frogzoo> Ramnath: I'm actually disturbed that once everything's all setup, there's so little left for me to play with :(
[09:17] <Healot> Ramnath, just use Windows to run Windows applications...
[09:18] <Ramnath> i don't have windows
[09:18] <Frogzoo> Ramnath: 2 points about wine - use the wine from stock repo NOT from sourceforge, & 2, install winetools & do the base install
[09:18] <Madpilot> Frogzoo, there's something like 16,000 packages in Ubuntu's repos - you can't possibly have explored them all! :P
[09:18] <Healot> buy...
[09:18] <Healot> :)
[09:19] <DoctorX> Frogzoo I turned off all power management in the bios and ran the install as linux acpi=off
[09:19] <DoctorX> still nothing after the partitioner loads
[09:19] <DoctorX> just blue screen w/ grey bar at the bottom
[09:19] <Frogzoo> Madpilot: yes yes, what I mean is, there's so little need for maintenance - I actually have to get on with getting real work done, instead of fiddling
[09:19] <Healot> don;t depend on Windows program when your actually use GNU/Linux... Wine project is a mistake
[09:20] <damian_> do i have to keep the gnome language packs? -language-pack-en
[09:20] <Ramnath> a mistake because why?
[09:20] <Madpilot> Frogzoo, I've found all sorts of things to fiddle with, more than I ever did in Windows, because the base is so stable for experimenting on
[09:20] <Frogzoo> DoctorX: I'd suggest googling for 'breezy + install ' + whatever hardware might be having issues
[09:20] <Healot> not really, damian_, if you prefer the default non-localized Posix/C
[09:20] <nem> svp j'ai un petit probleme
[09:21] <nem> oups sorry
[09:21] <Madpilot> !fr
[09:21] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[09:21] <Healot> c'est que? nem ?
[09:21] <n3m3s1s> :)
[09:22] <damian_> MAdpilot can i paste something to you
[09:22] <Madpilot> damian_, pastebin it
[09:22] <damian_> lazy
[09:22] <damian_> adress?
[09:22] <Frogzoo> !pastebin
[09:22] <Madpilot> !pastebin
[09:22] <ubotu> it has been said that 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 :)
[09:23] <selbstmord> Hmm, anyone running Cedega 5.0.3 here?
[09:24] <ichigo-san> i cannot get my sound working, normally when i restart after sound sstops working i will work again
[09:24] <m0ns00n> Is Ubuntu incompabitle with SATA drives?
[09:24] <Ramnath> Ubuntu- How many hoops are you willing to jump through?
[09:25] <Madpilot> m00s3s, not at all - my only HD is SATA
[09:25] <Healot> m0ns00n, it is compatible with ANY Sata drives... maybe for not the latest SATA2
[09:25] <m0ns00n> Healot: It can't find my disk
[09:25] <m0ns00n> Healot: And I don't have any bios options of making it run like a /dev/hda* disk
[09:26] <Healot> it's /dev/sd*
[09:26] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[09:26] <Healot> GNU/Linux treats most SATA drives as SCSI drives
[09:26] <ichigo-san> anyone know what to do to get my sound working?
[09:27] <linuxboyfriend> how can i upgrade my distro from breezy to dapper?
[09:27] <Healot> m0ns00n, if you prefer, try using System->Administration->Disks
[09:28] <Healot> or run Gparted (from Live CD or install it if you have an Ubuntu installed)
[09:28] <tonyyarusso> linuxboyfriend: Just like in !update, but s/breezy/dapper/ and s/hoary/breezy/.  See !dapper if you haven't.
[09:28] <Madpilot> linuxboyfriend, Dapper is still in development - it'll be stable/released in mid-April
[09:28] <linuxboyfriend> !dapper
[09:28] <ubotu> The pre-release name for next release of Ubuntu, actual name 6.04. Due 20th April. It is Development Software as such it _May_Break_! > /join #ubuntu+1 < Channel for IRC - Use http://tinyurl.com/rtgxo easy update
[09:28] <linuxboyfriend> Madpilot: so, is there any danger in upgrading?
[09:29] <Madpilot> linuxboyfriend, Dapper isn't stable yet, stuff could well break for you
[09:29] <Ramnath> this is absolute lunacy
[09:30] <linuxboyfriend> Madpilot: but i noticed that a lot of people, here, did this?
[09:30] <Madpilot> linuxboyfriend, yes, they have, and it seems to be working - but it's riskier than just staying with Breezy for now
[09:30] <PuMpErNiCkLe> linuxboyfriend: A lot of people here aren't running production boxes or have slight sanity issues. :)
[09:31] <shreevatsa> One of my friends has a Sis-SATA disk (only)... Hoary, and I think Breezy too, couldn't be installed on his comp. Will Dapper be any better?
[09:31] <Madpilot> Ramnath, are you just here to make random snarky comments, or are you here for an actual reason?
[09:31] <tonyyarusso> linuxboyfriend: You can get dapper-specific talk in #ubuntu+1, btw.
[09:31] <DoctorX> Is there anyway to try and partition the drive outside of the installer, then just skip that step?
[09:31] <linuxboyfriend> PuMpErNiCkLe: i am also not running production boxes :)
[09:31] <V4Vendetta> !java
[09:31] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[09:31] <V4Vendetta> !javadebs
[09:31] <polpak> DoctorX: yeah, you can do it with a live CD using gparted
[09:31] <Healot> just a recommendation, don;t run Dapper release on any production or "money-making" machine :)
[09:31] <PuMpErNiCkLe> linuxboyfriend: Then if you have sanity problems, feel free to upgrade. :D
[09:32] <ichigo-san> !javadebs
[09:32] <tonyyarusso> If only my machine made money...
[09:32] <DoctorX> polpak will it handle everything automatically like the installer would?
[09:32] <Healot> hehe
[09:32] <Healot> mine does...
[09:32] <shreevatsa> Ramnath: Wine is for running evil Windows programs, stop trying to use it ;)
[09:32] <Ramnath> doom3
[09:33] <Ramnath> come on
[09:33] <tonyyarusso> Ramnath: Doesn't that have a native Linux build?
[09:33] <polpak> DoctorX: I'm not sure what you mean. It'll repartition your drive.. You'll still need to run the installer to install, but you won't have to set up your partitions.. You just have to tell the installer what to mount where
[09:33] <PuMpErNiCkLe> doom3 is available as a linux binary, isn't it?
[09:33] <Ramnath> no not at all
[09:33] <Healot> Doom 3 has a linux version... it's binary, but who really cares about the source here?
[09:33] <PuMpErNiCkLe> yes ---> http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/doom/
[09:33] <polpak> Ramnath: you can run it natively
[09:33] <DoctorX> Polpak, I have no idea how im supposed to partition it though
[09:33] <Ramnath> i popped the cd in and nothing
[09:34] <polpak> Ramnath: that doesn't mean anything
[09:34] <Ramnath> kill me
[09:34] <polpak> Ramnath: ... it's really not that hard
[09:34] <Healot> i will...
[09:34] <polpak> Ramnath: I'm pretty sure there's even a howto
[09:34] <Healot> if you keep whining :)
[09:34] <Madpilot> Ramnath, have you checked google for Doom3-on-Linux info?
[09:34] <tonyyarusso> Ramnath: I think you have to get the game going first, then people kill you.
[09:35] <PuMpErNiCkLe> tonyyarusso: hehe
[09:35] <Madpilot> tonyyarusso, it's usually demons killing you in Doom, isn't it? ;)
[09:35] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Hi!
[09:35] <tonyyarusso> Madpilot: I wouldn't know; I'm guessing.
[09:35] <polpak> DoctorX: I'd recommend 3 partitions. One 10gig partition for /, another partition for swap (twice your ram in size), and then mount the rest on /home
[09:35] <DoctorX> Dont have 10 gigs on the laptop
[09:35] <Healot> polpak, good suggestion
[09:36] <DoctorX> only 6 or 7
[09:36] <polpak> DoctorX: eh.. Ok, then just make 2
[09:36] <shreevatsa> what's wrong with just one partition?
[09:36] <polpak> DoctorX: Ideally you'd want /home on a separate partition, but with that little space it hardly matters
[09:36] <DevGet> Hi all
[09:36] <Ramnath> i wish i had more alcohol
[09:37] <polpak> shreevatsa: if /home is not on / it makes it easier to reformat & reinstall w/o losing data
[09:37] <DoctorX> Isnt there something special I have to do to get the laptop to be able to standby/hibernate?
[09:37] <shreevatsa> polpak: Oh, I see... I hadn't thought of that
[09:37] <polpak> DoctorX: nope, not really
[09:37] <Ramnath> ugh jeez
[09:37] <DevGet> I have problems with the nvidia driver in dapper, when X starts it said that it can't find it, but I have nvidia-glx installed
[09:37] <Healot> DoctorX, in fact, yes... need to install "apmd" >> the thing that enables ACPI-related stuffs
[09:38] <polpak> !tell DevGet about nvidia
[09:38] <Ramnath> learn linux or spend $140 on a new windows os?
[09:38] <Healot> like hibernate... sleep... but mostly installed/configured by default
[09:38] <polpak> Ramnath: it's really not that hard
[09:38] <Healot> buy a Windows copy, Ramnath, cheaper
[09:38] <polpak> Ramnath: just need to read the howto
[09:38] <Healot> read and understand it, then try it out,....
[09:38] <DoctorX> Well I can't use the installers partitioner, if thats whats supposed to set up the apmd thing
[09:39] <Healot> GNU/Linux is an advanture
[09:39] <polpak> DoctorX: no... it doesn't have anything to do with partitioning
[09:39] <Ramnath> in hell
[09:39] <polpak> DoctorX: it'll be installed with the core system
[09:39] <Ramnath> im sorry im just a very snide person
[09:40] <Healot> well, if you do not prefer to learn, then, Windows copy would be sufficient
[09:41] <MeTaM> what is the newest kernel?
[09:41] <DevGet> thx polpak
[09:41] <MeTaM> in breezy?
[09:41] <Ramnath> i learned most of the things
[09:41] <polpak> DevGet: =)
[09:41] <MeTaM> 2.6.12 is old?
[09:41] <bina> MeTaM - the latest source is 2.6.15.something
[09:42] <Madpilot> MeTaM, 2.6.12 is still current for breezy - Dapper will have a new kernel when it releases
[09:42] <Ramnath> i just can't get cds to do anything
[09:42] <MeTaM> i remember bad, i have 2.10 kernel?
[09:42] <MeTaM> okay
[09:42] <polpak> Ramnath: they're not going to auto-run
[09:42] <MeTaM> thx
[09:43] <bina> MeTaM - if you want to find your current kernel version do uname -r
[09:43] <polpak> Ramnath: you have to open them up and select what you want (except possibly for audio cd's)
[09:43] <Ramnath> so do i just drag and drop all of the files to that winecfg program?
[09:43] <MeTaM> 2.6.12-10-386
[09:43] <MeTaM> is the newest breezy kernel?
[09:43] <MeTaM> is this'
[09:43] <polpak> Ramnath: ..... what exactly are you trying to do?
[09:44] <polpak> MeTaM: yes
[09:44] <Ramnath> make my games work again....
[09:44] <bina> MeTaM -  I think so
[09:44] <Ramnath> god
[09:44] <MeTaM> hoh, i upgraded good
[09:44] <Celestianpower> cwillu: You aren't here then I take it ;)
[09:44] <MeTaM> thank yours:)
[09:44] <polpak> Ramnath: one at a time. Which game are you trying now?
[09:44] <Ramnath> warcraft3
[09:44] <polpak> Ramnath: ok
[09:45] <polpak> Ramnath: you've installed wine already?
[09:45] <DoctorX> Bleh this laptop is designed so awkwardly
[09:45] <DoctorX> Why would the port for mouse/keyboard be on the left?
[09:45] <DoctorX> Why is the connector for the CD/Floppy (external) on the right?
[09:45] <Ramnath> i suppose every single little file i could possibly download is on there
[09:45] <Madpilot> DoctorX, it's a left-handed laptop
[09:46] <DoctorX> How did I manage to get the only left handed laptop in the world?
[09:46] <polpak> Ramnath: actually.. what video card do you have?
[09:46] <shreevatsa> midi files don't play... how do I get midi to work?
[09:46] <Ramnath> integrated graphics card
[09:47] <Ramnath> im just waiting for a dvi to vga adaptor
[09:47] <V4Vendetta> Ramnath, i have one in my drawer :\
[09:47] <Ramnath> warcraft ran on my older, more worthless integrated graphics deal on the mother board
[09:48] <tini> hi guys - have a problem - I try to compile bristuff (isdn), but I can't get it to run.. - it says .../qozap/qozap.o]  Error 1 - can't find anything on google concerning that
[09:48] <tini> hi guys - have a problem - I try to compile bristuff (isdn), but I can't get it to run.. - it says .../qozap/qozap.o]  Error 1 - can't find anything on google concerning that
[09:48] <Ramnath> it cost 5 bucks
[09:48] <Ramnath> and the shipping was 10....
[09:49] <KonphuzeD> yo is there some way I can set this edubuntu install to run the gateway firewall pppoe for the network with like dhcp and samba
[09:49] <Ramnath> no
[09:50] <KonphuzeD> i can put in a second ethernet card and use this 8 port switch here
[09:50] <polpak> KonphuzeD: yeah, I've done it before. Works fine
[09:50] <Ramnath> every second you waste trying to accomplish this is a complete waste of your life
[09:51] <polpak> Ramnath: you need to either give up and go groveling back to you MS masters or suck it up.
[09:51] <Ramnath> hahaha ok
[09:51] <skadum> alut  tous
[09:51] <shreevatsa> Ramnath: Discovering what's happening on your computer is a waste of your life, and playing Doom3 and Warcraft3 isn't?
[09:51] <polpak> Ramnath: So far you've mentioned trying to install warcraft3 and doom3 both of which are very well supported under wine or natively respectively
[09:52] <Ramnath> sarcasm
[09:52] <Ramnath> please people
[09:52] <KonphuzeD> polpak, is there a straight forward tool for setting up sared internet lke firewall/gateway ,dns,dhcp, etc....
[09:52] <Healot> For gaming I prefer and have consoles.. wTF you need PC games for?
[09:52] <cyphase> Ramanth, what are you having trouble with?
[09:52] <cyphase> Ramnath*
[09:53] <polpak> KonphuzeD: you pretty much just need to run the dhcp daemon, and configure your iptables accordingly
[09:53] <KonphuzeD> i got this listtle computer lab of 6 boxes and one gateway server
[09:53] <Ramnath> just getting the gist of how things run
[09:53] <polpak> KonphuzeD: I'd suggest a google search for "Linux Gateway HOWTO"
[09:53] <KonphuzeD> mmmmmm
[09:53] <KonphuzeD> and just do that on edubuntu
[09:53] <Ramnath> i have this wine configuration program running
[09:53] <FliesLikeABrick> KonphuzeD  google "gentoo home router" and it gives instructions on how to use iptables to set up a router
[09:54] <polpak> Ramnath: if you've actually installed wine you can probably just double click the setup.exe file on your warcraft 3 cd
[09:54] <Healot> is LDAP still exists?
[09:54] <polpak> Ramnath: you don't need to do anything with winecfg for that
[09:54] <Healot> that linux documentation stuff and s***
[09:54] <tini> anyone familiar with bristuff ?
[09:54] <Aegir> KonphuzeD, And if you're more familiar with Cisco IOS, Quagga might make you jump up and down whooping and hollering. I know I did!
[09:55] <Healot> GNU/Linux for CIsco yay!
[09:55] <KonphuzeD> Quagga
[09:55] <Ramnath> it's a setup.mpq file
[09:55] <Ramnath> and it does nothing
[09:55] <KonphuzeD> !Quagga
[09:55] <FliesLikeABrick> Ramnath  not that one...
[09:55] <ubotu> KonphuzeD: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:55] <FliesLikeABrick> use the exe
[09:56] <FliesLikeABrick> mpq is just a blizzard data file
[09:56] <Healot> muahaha
[09:56] <Healot> you can't tell which is the executables?
[09:56] <Ramnath> autoplay and install exe don't work either
[09:57] <Aegir> mpq is an archive. MoPaQ.
[09:57] <Ramnath> there is no setup.exe
[09:57] <polpak> Ramnath: what exactly happens when you double click install.exe
[09:57] <Ramnath> no program start menu found
[09:58] <cyphase> Ramnath, my friend installed Warcraft 3 on Wine right in front of me
[09:58] <cyphase> you just run setup.exe
[09:58] <cyphase> or something like that
[09:58] <Ramnath> well im really glad that your friend accomplished that
[09:58] <cyphase> thanks
[09:58] <cyphase> i'll tell him
[09:58] <cyphase> ;)
[09:58] <polpak> Ramnath: try from a terminal
[09:59] <Healot> wine <some exe>
[09:59] <polpak> Ramnath: cd /media/cdrom && wine install.exe
[09:59] <Healot> Do you drink the real wine?
[09:59] <Ramnath> im drunk on wine
[09:59] <Jivenix> any good software modeling tools for ubuntu?
[09:59] <DoctorX> I was really hoping for a trouble free install :(
[10:00] <Healot> Diagram? UML, Jivenix ?
[10:00] <Ramnath> but its better than chugging the vermouth
[10:00] <polpak> Jivenix: you mean UML type stuff?
[10:00] <Healot> or 3D modelling?
[10:00] <Jivenix> both diagram and uml would be nice
[10:00] <FlannelKing> Jivenix: Umbrello
[10:00] <Jivenix> thanks
[10:00] <polpak> Jivenix: Dia and umbrello
[10:00] <Healot> or for Java UML, try Netbeans :)
[10:01] <polpak> DoctorX: what's up doc?
[10:01] <DoctorX> Run the install, everything goes fine until I get to the part where it loads the partitioner
[10:01] <DoctorX> goes to 100%
[10:01] <DoctorX> then nothing
[10:01] <DoctorX> blue screen, grey bar at very bottom
[10:01] <DoctorX> I seem to be able to type things into the grey bar, but they dont do anything
[10:02] <polpak> DoctorX: this is with a breezy install CD?
[10:02] <DoctorX> Yup
[10:02] <DoctorX> The first CD has nano corrupt for some reason
[10:02] <DoctorX> So I burned a second at 8x, which has passed the integrity check 2x
[10:03] <polpak> DoctorX: you should try a live CD and do the partition w/ gparted
[10:03] <DoctorX> Im downloading one now
[10:03] <DoctorX> which is another blank CD :P
[10:03] <DoctorX> Hopefully in the future booting stuff off a USB drive will be easy
[10:04] <Healot> DoctorX, are you a patience person?
[10:04] <DoctorX> Usually
[10:05] <Healot> well, I suggest you can wait for the next official Dapper release, and order the official CDs. :)
[10:05] <Healot> i know I did
[10:06] <Healot> i just like the Official CDs...
[10:06] <DoctorX> well I have 25-30 blank CD-R's
[10:06] <DoctorX> and I already have Win98SE installed on this laptop
[10:06] <DoctorX> I'd just like to get some variant on it was hoping to try Ubuntu
[10:06] <shreevatsa> They should send out the CDs so that they *reach* us by April 20 :)
[10:07] <Ramnath> oh jesus christ
[10:07] <selbstmord> Anyone here running Cedega 5.0.3?
[10:07] <DoctorX> slack/suse/gentoo have been reported working on my 'series' of lappy so I might end up trying one of them if this live CD stuff doesnt work
[10:07] <shreevatsa> Ramnath: What?
[10:08] <Ramnath> this is screwed
[10:08] <Ramnath> i have to uninstall it
[10:08] <Toma-> yay :D PC back up and running after 3 months down!
[10:08] <Healot> DoctorX, did you tried the ISO first, e.g. mounting it before burning it, see if the image is properly downloaded?
[10:08] <DoctorX> Well it passes the integrity check
[10:08] <Healot> btw, what connection do you have, DoctorX ?
[10:08] <DoctorX> So im assuming its fine
[10:08] <DoctorX> cable
[10:09] <Madpilot> DoctorX, you ran md5sum on the download?
[10:09] <Madpilot> checksum?
[10:09] <DoctorX> no
[10:09] <Healot> maybe it's your CD-ROM drive...
[10:09] <DoctorX> Well if it is the lappy is pretty much useless to me anyways
[10:09] <DoctorX> as it uses an external CD-ROM
[10:09] <FlannelKing> you can send it to me!
[10:09] <Aegir> Hahah
[10:09] <Healot> or the image doesnot really passes the integrity check...
[10:10] <DoctorX> Well, i'm redownload via torrent (which checks it for me, right?)
[10:10] <DoctorX> I figured the same thing so I started redownloading
[10:10] <DoctorX> flannel, it uses a connection I've never seen before
[10:10] <DoctorX> :p
[10:10] <Healot> yeah... might be the torrent metafile that sucked you off the download :)
[10:10] <DoctorX> Its not USB/Firewire
[10:11] <DoctorX> The original image was downloaded via HTTP
[10:11] <ChaosTeam> hi
[10:12] <DoctorX> My Grandmas work is rennovating all its computers and they are basically giving out the old stuff to employees
[10:12] <Healot> DoctorX, was it download from mirror or... the official download server?
[10:12] <DoctorX> ubuntu.com
[10:12] <Healot> or could you just state the URL?
[10:13] <DoctorX> It was download via a the download area on ubuntu.com lol
[10:13] <DoctorX> So im assuming it was official
[10:13] <Healot> Bt eh?
[10:13] <DoctorX> This time around, bt, yes
[10:13] <DoctorX> utorrent
[10:13] <Healot> did the BT client state any error while download?
[10:14] <DoctorX> The image im using now was downloaded via HTTP
[10:14] <DoctorX> w/ no checks
[10:14] <DoctorX> so idk
[10:14] <Healot> that's why I prefer official CDs, they have lovely people printed on it :)
[10:14] <Madpilot> DoctorX, have a look here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VerifyIsoHowto
[10:15] <KonphuzeD> teeth and all
[10:15] <raphael> test2
[10:15] <DoctorX> Mad: The torrent client should check hash for me
[10:15] <Healot> yeah... the way they hold hands :)
[10:16] <cjnodell> hello all

[10:17] <Toma-> what different agp options are there for nvidia? ive got an on-board sis agp controller that doesnt work, the nvidia one, but is there one that uses neither?
[10:19] <Madpilot> cjnodell, see http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Desktop_EyeCandy#HOWTO:_INSTALL_CURSOR_THEMES_ON_UBUNTU.2FGNOME
[10:19] <rob> thats one fugly url
[10:20] <Madpilot> wikis tend to create fugly URLs :P
[10:20] <cjnodell> i will have a look. I hope it is not gnome specific because i do not use gnome (:
[10:21] <Madpilot> cjnodell, eh - it is Gnome-specific - which WM/DE do you use isntead?
[10:21] <Healot> Wikiwiki
[10:21] <k31th> Wats the terminal used in gnome called ?
[10:22] <cjnodell> I use fluxbox
[10:22] <afd_> hi! How do I enable the debian menu? A lot of Applications menu entries are not shown, and I know that enabling the Debian menu will show more of them
[10:22] <Aegir> k31th, gnome-terminal
[10:22] <Madpilot> k31th, gnome-terminal
[10:22] <k31th> Know any good  terminals ?
[10:22] <Aegir> Madnes
[10:22] <Healot> two people answers...
[10:22] <k31th> my Konsole is beoken
[10:22] <k31th> broken (in kde)
[10:22] <Healot> "good" terminal?
[10:22] <k31th> yes
[10:23] <Healot> any terminal is good as long as they can do cli...
[10:23] <k31th> Healot: i need a tabed one
[10:23] <k31th> i liked Konsole it worked well with irssi
[10:23] <Madpilot> k31th, gnome-term does tabs...
[10:23] <Healot> gnome-terminal is tabbed :)
[10:24] <Toma-> Ive got my agpgart picking up my sis760 mobo, not my nvidia card...
[10:24] <k31th> installing.
[10:24] <Toma-> is there a way to control apggart better?
[10:24] <k31th> im getting pissed off with this gentoo box tbh... i might put ubuntu bk on.
[10:24] <Healot> agpgart eh...
[10:24] <jaycee_N770> Hi all.  Is there a known bug in Breezy causing it to hang at base-config time after the first reboot, if you /haven't/ done the 'copy remaining pkgs to hdd' step?  My box has had apt-get sitting at 99% CPU for hours ...
[10:24] <k31th> How long is it untill the next ubuntu release ?
[10:24] <Healot> jaycee_N770, no,,,
[10:25] <cjnodell> anybody?
[10:25] <Toma-> ive already put agpgart in blacklist too :/
[10:25] <jaycee_N770> its just happened on multiple machines ...
[10:25] <Healot> most of us did that... no hanging time there... maybe it's your hardware...
[10:25] <Madpilot> k31th, probably about six weeks
[10:25] <FliesLikeABrick> k31th  month to a month and a half
[10:25] <DoctorX> Okay
[10:25] <DoctorX> So its not the image
[10:25] <Healot> its the CD right?
[10:25] <DoctorX> This is the third CD, second download of image
[10:25] <DoctorX> no
[10:25] <Toma-> brb
[10:25] <DoctorX> Its either the hardware or a bug
[10:25] <DoctorX> or both
[10:26] <k31th> perhaps ill install server apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:26] <DoctorX> i.I
[10:26] <DoctorX> o.O*
[10:26] <CyberBobCity> Hey Everyone
[10:26] <DoctorX> burning live CD now
[10:26] <Healot> DoctorX, can you tell me specific model.brand of your hardware?
[10:26] <DoctorX> HP Omnibook 900
[10:26] <DoctorX> 400mhz 64mb RAM
[10:26] <k31th> etting very pissed off with fixing portage etc. Just dont have time for gentoo atm im so busy... But it is fast
[10:26] <DoctorX> Thats all I know off the top of my head
[10:26] <Healot> should take a look of the Fs switch to figure some hardware tweaking,...
[10:27] <DoctorX> using an external CD-ROM, hotswappable
[10:27] <danny-khi> My Totem Movie Player does not play any file
[10:27] <Healot> during the install that is
[10:27] <Tomcat_> apt wants me to upgrade totem, but can't, because it needs to install totem-gstreamer, while I have totem-xine... as totem depends on either -gstreamer or -xine, why do I have to install totem-gstreamer in the upgrade process?
[10:27] <danny-khi> How do I play a .rm file
[10:27] <Tomcat_> !tell danny-khi about codecs
[10:27] <DoctorX> Once I get the live CD and use it to partition
[10:27] <danny-khi> where do I found decorders for my totem
[10:27] <DoctorX> How do I go about -skipping- that step
[10:27] <DoctorX> ?
[10:27] <Healot> DoctorX, it's not USB/Firewire based right? DoctorX ?
[10:28] <DoctorX> No
[10:28] <DoctorX> Its some other port
[10:28] <Healot> oh
[10:28] <DoctorX> thinner and wider than USB
[10:28] <Healot> older hardware... yeah I think you need to check the F options
[10:28] <danny-khi> what is !easysource
[10:28] <LinuxMonkey> anyone know how to reset password on nickserv for freenode? i know this is off topic a bit
[10:29] <CyberBobCity> Can anyone tell me what is the difference between using apt-get, aptitude, and the Synamtic Package Manager?
[10:29] <Healot> you know during the install, you press F1, F2 etc... there are some options for unique hardware
[10:29] <DoctorX> Well its a really light laptop, I just want to keep it around for writing code/papers/web stuff
[10:29] <Tomcat_> Eh... since when does totem-xine conflict the totem packages? o_O
[10:29] <Healot> CyberBobCity, they are all the same thing... but dpkg is the base of all Ubuntu package installer...
[10:29] <Madpilot> Tomcat_, it shouldn't - I just had a totem-xine upgrade a few days ago, it went fine
[10:30] <CyberBobCity> well I heard using aptitude allows you to uninstall packages and it will uninstall all it's related packages?
[10:30] <Healot> just replace the totem-gstreamer...
[10:30] <DoctorX> Healot, how do I skip the partition phase of the install ?
[10:30] <defrysk> Tomcat_, had the same prob
[10:30] <defrysk> Tomcat_, just remove totem-xine
[10:30] <Healot> skipp which phase, DoctorX ?
[10:30] <DoctorX> partition
[10:30] <defrysk> Tomcat_, then install totem
[10:31] <defrysk> Tomcat_, and then again install totem-xine
[10:31] <dmakalsky> Hi all
[10:31] <Healot> DoctorX, then you must select "automatic" or "manually partition the disk" option...
[10:31] <dmakalsky> I am trying to follow the vnc tutorial here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402
[10:31] <dmakalsky> for some reason, I can't get it working
[10:31] <DoctorX> Healot, I don't even- get the partition menu
[10:31] <DoctorX> Install freezes BEFORE that
[10:31] <dmakalsky> is anyone familiar with it?
[10:31] <DoctorX> and it stops the entire install
[10:31] <DoctorX> so if I can't do the steps before partition and then skip partition I can't install
[10:32] <Healot> DoctorX, check out the install F switches... see if any of them can resolve your pronlem...
[10:32] <DoctorX> I have no idea what your talking about
[10:32] <Healot> nvm... :)
[10:32] <Healot> you don';t want to figure out stuff, nvm
[10:33] <Healot> read the Ubuntu doc on the CD first before install... though
[10:33] <cyphase> what! Mark wants to push Dapper back 6 weeks?!
[10:33] <cyphase> nooooooo...
[10:33] <DoctorX> The phrase "install F switches" doesn't even return one result on google
[10:33] <Healot> duh...
[10:34] <Healot> nvm, forget what I say anything, zip...
[10:34] <DoctorX> I'm assuming you mean the install options?
[10:34] <n3m3s1s> how rm a directory ?
[10:34] <n3m3s1s> rm -df name
[10:34] <Healot> YES!
[10:34] <DoctorX> But I havent seen one to skip a step yet
[10:34] <Madpilot> !tell n3m3s1s about cli
[10:34] <n3m3s1s> :x
[10:34] <n3m3s1s> ?
[10:34] <oddie> hello all
[10:34] <Tomcat_> Madpilot, defrysk: I upgraded totem and installed totem-gstreamer, deinstalling totem-xine in the process... however, the new totem-xine package seems to conflict totem and thus wants to uninstall ubuntu-desktop... I'm currently trying if gstreamer can do w32codecs, then I won't need xine anyway.
[10:35] <Auci> Hello, why cant i update? W: Couldn't stat source package list cdrom://Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release i386 (20051012) breezy/restricted Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/Ubuntu%205.10%20%5fBreezy%20Badger%5f%20-%20Release%20i386%20(20051012)_dists_breezy_restricted_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[10:35] <Auci> W: Couldn't stat source package list cdrom://Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release i386 (20051012) breezy/restricted Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/Ubuntu%205.10%20%5fBreezy%20Badger%5f%20-%20Release%20i386%20(20051012)_dists_breezy_restricted_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[10:35] <DoctorX> Hmm.. could I boot the live CD and then install while running the live?
[10:35] <Madpilot> Tomcat_, you don't need ubuntu-desktop
[10:35] <Healot> when you're prompted "boot: ", press any of the F (F1 until F10) keys, checkout the options, see if any of them involves your hardware
[10:35] <Celestianpower> !paste
[10:35] <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.
[10:35] <defrysk> Tomcat_, ubuntu-desktop is a virtual desktop , it can be uninstalled safely
[10:35] <Madpilot> Auci, remove the CD from your sources, then try again
[10:35] <cyphase> Auci, because the CD isn't in the drive
[10:35] <defrysk> virtual package*
[10:35] <cyphase> Auci, do a search (on the web) for source-o-matic
[10:36] <Auci> thanks
[10:36] <Tomcat_> Madpilot, defrysk: I'm just always afraid some update might not work if I don't have it (although that's true only for distro version upgrades)... anyway, totem-gstreamer can do w32codecs now, so I guess I don't need xine anyway.
[10:36] <Tomcat_> Madpilot, defrysk: Thanks though ;)
[10:36] <oddie> I have a problem with a partition change I have done in windows...when booting back to linux it says 'fsck failed' - 'Give root password for maintanence'. When i give the user password it says 'Login failed'
[10:36] <Madpilot> Tomcat_, yeah, just be sure and reinstall ubuntu-desktop before you update to Dapper, that's all
[10:37] <Healot> just install all the gstreamer plugins (most of them in the universe/multiverse sections)
[10:37] <Healot> walla, working totem-gstreamer
[10:38] <Tomcat_> Healot: Yeah I tried that once when breezy came out - but gstreamer couldn't do w32codecs... I guess they updated/fixed something, because it works now.
[10:38] <Healot> yes... ubuntu sucks at multimedia
[10:38] <defrysk> Healot, ?
[10:38] <Tomcat_> Eh... no it doesn't. :)
[10:38] <defrysk> :)
[10:39] <Healot> it does... at least int previous versions... I would say
[10:39] <Tomcat_> It's just not the easiest as could be, and I understand that it's not, because they have to stay free. :>
[10:39] <defrysk> Tomcat_, its very easy if one reads the help pages
[10:40] <defrysk> Tomcat_,  http://help.ubuntu.com/ ;)
[10:40] <Healot> yeah :)
[10:40] <tushkee> i got dapper now, but how do i upgrade to FLIGHT 5?
[10:40] <Tomcat_> defrysk: I certainly don't have a problem with it. ;) I'm just saying a newbie Linux guy might have his problems with following some things. *might* :)
[10:40] <Healot> no one reads the Ubuntu documentation before actually attempt the installation... that one is for sure
[10:41] <Tomcat_> flight 5 is out? Oi. :D
[10:41] <BobC2> Wow amazing how many people are here...nice
[10:41] <Healot> yep, nice eh?
[10:42] <defrysk> Tomcat_, imho its easyer to do a ubuntu install for a linux newby then to install windows for a windows newby
[10:42] <BobC2> Nice indeed
[10:42] <oddie> I have a problem with a partition change I have done in windows...when booting back to linux it says 'fsck failed' - 'Give root password for maintanence'. When i give the user password it says 'Login failed'...any idea's?
[10:42] <BobC2> Is Koffice the office  suite that will come with Ubuntu?
[10:42] <defrysk> BobC2, with kubuntu it will
[10:43] <Healot> with Kubuntu, BobC2, but you still can install from ubuntu :)
[10:43] <oddie> no one...
[10:43] <Healot> with ubuntu, it OpenOffice...
[10:43] <BobC2> Ahh Great Healot..THANKS!
[10:43] <Healot> oddie, just enter your root password?
[10:43] <BobC2> oh not Koffice?
[10:43] <Healot> nope, not with ubuntu...
[10:43] <Madpilot> BobC2, not on Ubuntu w/ Gnome
[10:43] <cyphase> yay, Flight 5!
[10:44] <defrysk> BobC2, sudo apt-get install koffice
[10:44] <defrysk> BobC2, if you prefer kde get kubuntu
[10:44] <Auci> were is fligth 5
[10:44] <Healot> oddie, you can run fsck, manually using the live or install CD though
[10:44] <BobC2> I don't know the difference yet defrysk
[10:44] <transgress> i've been noticing apt has been going a lot slower when i do stuff lately as it is reading the database and such... is there something i can do to clean things up so it runs smoothly again?
[10:44] <irma> hello
[10:45] <BobC2> Was reading about koffice sounded nice
[10:45] <defrysk> BobC2, why so interested in koffice then ?
[10:45] <Healot> and next time you boot type "sudo passwd root" to setup your "root" password
[10:45] <defrysk> BobC2, ubuntu has openoffice wich is pretty good
[10:45] <Healot> well, I'd say a lot better
[10:45] <BobC2> Was reading about koffice sounded nice  is it very diff from Openoffice?
[10:45] <Healot> now OO has a database program, yay to OO's team
[10:46] <defrysk> BobC2 but you can install koffice with ease
[10:46] <irma> i have a question.. i have 2 system programs linux and windows.. how can i open files from windows xp if i'm loged into linux(can someone help me?)
[10:46] <BobC2> Ahhh OK defrysk  ..Nic e to have  that option
[10:46] <Healot> irma, you need access to your NTFS or FAT disk, right?
[10:46] <irma> yes
[10:47] <Madpilot> cyphase & Auci - flight5 hasn't been released yet
[10:47] <dmakalsky> Could someone help me please with some vnc setup?
[10:47] <Healot> what desktop do you use, or you prefer command line? iratsu ?
[10:47] <cyphase> Madpilot, i know
[10:47] <Healot> irma*
[10:47] <irma> yep?
[10:47] <BobC2> I have much to learn but it sounds exciting
[10:47] <cyphase> but it's close
[10:47] <cyphase> and the things to expect page looks good :P
[10:47] <stepore> what's the vnc question?
[10:48] <Healot> irma, if you're in GNOMe, you should be able to access your NTFS/FAT disks in "File Manager"
[10:48] <irma> oh
[10:48] <Jimmey__> I've a laptop, and an old box without a monitor, could I install Ubuntu onto that box with my laptop, somehow?
[10:48] <Healot> ubuntu should setup your NTFS/FAT drive automatically...
[10:48] <Healot> but if you have problem, then come back and ask us
[10:48] <jamie_> hey there
[10:49] <dmakalsky> stepore, I am getting the following error
[10:49] <dmakalsky> after configuring xinetd
[10:49] <dmakalsky> xinetd[8198] : warning: can't get client address: Transport endpoint is not connected
[10:49] <irma> do i need to install something for that..healot?
[10:49] <Healot> irma, in "File Manager", there is/are some links on the left side named "hd" soemthing
[10:49] <Madpilot> !tell irma about ntfs
[10:49] <Healot> no, there is no need to install anything...
[10:49] <stepore> why do you need xinetd for vnc? what server are you using?
[10:49] <Healot> just run Application->Accessories->File Manager
[10:49] <cyphase> Flight 4 broke the Netgear MA111 ndiswrapper driver
[10:50] <Madpilot> cyphase, was that bug reported?
[10:50] <irma> ok thanks !
[10:50] <cyphase> Madpilot, yes, but not by me
[10:50] <cyphase> Madpilot, i found it through a search
[10:50] <joshhendo> :)
[10:50] <irma> and where can i find this file manager?
[10:50] <Madpilot> cyphase, I gather that any regression like that is treated as a priority bug
[10:51] <Healot> Application->Accessories->File Manager irma
[10:51] <jimbo> I'm new to Ubuntu pls help. How can I add a panel with cpu info like I saw on some screenshots at gnome-look.org?
[10:51] <Madpilot> irma, Places -> Home folder
[10:51] <Jimmey__> Can I install ubuntu on a box without a monitor.?
[10:51] <cyphase> Madpilot, it better be, i'm using it on 2 computers :P
[10:51] <Healot> or that too...
[10:51] <cyphase> Jimmey__, you can use the monitor to install it then take it away..
[10:51] <joshhendo> not easily
[10:51] <joshhendo> :P
[10:52] <Jimmey__> I think the video card on the box's knackered
[10:52] <irma> is  that the file system?
[10:52] <Madpilot> irma, the File Manager is like Windows Explorer, basically
[10:52] <joshhendo> im trying to play a encrypted dvd in xine, though it says it can't play encrypted. is there a way to get it to work. im sure it worked before I reinstalled ubuntu
[10:53] <Madpilot> !dvd
[10:53] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[10:53] <irma> i see
[10:53] <Madpilot> joshhendo, ^^^
[10:53] <Healot> irma, there should be a little tab on the right says "Places"
[10:53] <irma> i have about 6 locations
[10:53] <BobC2> Thanks for being here and for help...cya
[10:53] <joshhendo> thanks
[10:54] <Healot> any "hd*", irma ?
[10:54] <cyphase> can someone currently on dapper tell me the version of the nvidia driver?
[10:54] <Healot> click on that, if any
[10:54] <Madpilot> cyphase, packages.ubuntu.com
[10:54] <joshhendo> im not using dapper untill it is fully released
[10:54] <joshhendo> :P
[10:54] <cyphase> yea, i thought of that as i was typing :P
[10:54] <irma> i'm now looking at file system
[10:55] <cyphase> joshhendo, me neither, at least on my main machine..
[10:55] <DCCole> how do i unlock files??
[10:55] <cyphase> but i have spares :P
[10:55] <irma> shood it be in home>?
[10:56] <Healot> "hd*" somethine
[10:56] <cyphase> yea! 8178!
[10:56] <irma> i can look in bin,tmp and some ather files
[10:56] <stepore> DCCole, how do you mean locked?
[10:56] <joshhendo> cyphase: you can control terminals in the terminal using sudo
[10:56] <joshhendo> though if they are locked, only sudo can control them
[10:56] <cyphase> uhh..
[10:56] <DCCole> i get this little lock above a folder
[10:56] <joshhendo> yup
[10:57] <cyphase> joshhendo, i think you're talking to someone else
[10:57] <Madpilot> DCCole, is the folder in your own /home directory?
[10:57] <joshhendo> :/
[10:57] <DCCole> then when i got to run vmware its says it is locked
[10:57] <DCCole> no??
[10:57] <DCCole> Should it be
[10:57] <stepore> DCCole, who does the folder belong to?
[10:57] <Madpilot> DCCole, if it's not in your home, then the system owns it, not you
[10:57] <raz0r> hello
[10:57] <Madpilot> DCCole, right-click on the folder -> Properties
[10:57] <stepore> hey raz
[10:57] <DCCole> okay how can i change that
[10:57] <Jimmey__> How would I install Ubuntu over a serial cable?
[10:58] <DCCole> ok
[10:58] <Madpilot> DCCole, under the Permissions tab, who is listed as owner?
[10:58] <raz0r> can someone tell me how to set my ubuntu pc as a gateway for other win pc?
[10:58] <lightstep> are there ubuntu repositories with 0install and rox?
[10:58] <DCCole> david who is me??
[10:59] <Madpilot> DCCole, what about permissions? If you own it, adjust the permissions tickboxes
[10:59] <DCCole> cause i copied the folder from a cd
[10:59] <jquixote> why is it that I see a page announcing the release of flight-5 but it links to a directory that doesn't exist?
[10:59] <stepore> raz0r, get a router, it's easier. what are you trying to set up?
[10:59] <DCCole> i think i got it i didnt set it to write
[11:00] <DCCole> thanks you :-)
[11:00] <Madpilot> jquixote, that's a 'coming soon' page, not a release annoucement

[11:01] <lightstep> (sorry)
[11:01] <hagg8is> kool
[11:02] <hagg8is> cheers ill go try that i need to set the rez of my TFT screen as it pur blinds me
[11:02] <robinl1> BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D::D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[11:02] <stepore> raz0r, an easy way is to use firestarter (firewall)
[11:02] <FarrisG>  I bought this yotta raid subsystem. it's a scsi-to-sata box. Anyway, it came with this little one-ended scsi terminator, and I'm not really sure what to do with it. I'm only using one cable, from the yotta to the host system. Does it go on the second scsi plug for the channel I'm using, or on the channel I'm not using?
[11:02] <jquixote> Madpilot: and nothing on the page says "coming soon"
[11:03] <Healot> raz0r, Windows ICS?
[11:03] <Healot> hehe, consult Windows Manual , Start Menu - > Help :)
[11:03] <raz0r> Healot windows ics is enabled, i want my ubuntu as gateway
[11:04] <damian_> hi i need the exact line for my fstab to mount 192.168.0.9/"HENDO (D)"/MEDIA
[11:04] <damian_> hi i need the exact line for my fstab to mount 192.168.0.9/"HENDO (D)"/MEDIA read write...its a samba share btw
[11:04] <stepore> raz0r, if you have ics in windows, then that will be the gateway for the ubuntu pc
[11:04] <lightstep> damian_, perhaps try a backslash?
[11:05] <Healot> raz0r, are you familiar with Linux firewall e.g. Iptables or Ipchains...
[11:05] <luis_> Hi i have a question. i had PentumIII with ubuntu breezy. Now i have AMD Semprom 3000+ with K8ns ( GigaByte ). The ubuntu breezy 32 or 64 version ever crash in gdm. But drapper 64 with acpi=off works correctly. My question is: Its posible use ubuntu drapper 32 with micro 64?
[11:05] <damian_> you know what i mean
[11:05] <damian_> hi i need the exact line for my fstab to mount \\192.168.0.9\"HENDO (D)"\MEDIA read write...its a samba share btw
[11:05] <Healot> if not try to install, "firestarter", btw I can't figure this out for you though
[11:05] <stepore> i'm trying to get raz0r to set this up using firestarter, probably easier than using iptables
[11:05] <lightstep> damian_, i don't know smbfs very well, i use fusesmb myself
[11:06] <lightstep> (which mounts all the network shares)
[11:06] <raz0r> i think u dont understand stepore, THIS ubuntu pc is directly connected to dsl modem with 2nd lan device, first lan device goes to windows pc. THIS one must be gateway i dont want the other one
[11:06] <raz0r> ok i will see if i can use firestarter
[11:06] <jquixote> Madpilot: is that page http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/flight5?highlight=%28dapper%29 a known issue or have you not seen it?
[11:07] <selbstmord> Anyone here running Cedega 5.0.3?
[11:07] <damian_> lightstep: synaptic have it?
[11:07] <lightstep> damian_, but generally, using //192.68.0.9/HENDO\ (D)/MEDIA should work
[11:07] <Healot> raz0r, the idea is to "reroute" all the traffic from you Windows machine... to you ubuntu machine... so those machines can connect to the net via your DSL modem
[11:07] <lightstep> damian_, no, you need to compile and install a package
[11:07] <xstation> hi
[11:07] <Madpilot> jquixote, last time I saw it there was a big notice across the top, something about 'to be released soon'
[11:08] <luis_> Hi i have a question. i had PentumIII with ubuntu breezy. Now i have AMD Semprom 3000+ with K8ns ( GigaByte ). The ubuntu breezy 32 or 64 version ever crash in gdm. But drapper 64 with acpi=off works correctly. My question is: Its posible use ubuntu drapper 32 with micro 64?
[11:08] <lightstep> damian_, but it's not very hard
[11:08] <jquixote> hmm
[11:08] <Madpilot> luis_, Dapper isn't stable yet - stick with Breezy
[11:08] <damian_> hmm i just found a xfce fstab manager that will work:p
[11:08] <damian_> thanks anyway ill try that program too
[11:08] <xstation> justed istalled kgpg but have sylpheed-claws but cannot find gpnug  gui
[11:08] <jquixote> that flight-5 page makes dapper look very appatizing
[11:08] <edan> hi i have som kerel related qustions can any one help me?
[11:08] <luis_> yes i known, but under my new hardware, the brezzy ever crash ( 32 and 64 version )
[11:09] <LinuxMonkey> jquixote yeah it does
[11:09] <LinuxMonkey> hence why im downloading the daily :)
[11:09] <jquixote> so, officially, flight-5 cannot be downloaded anywhere?
[11:09] <Madpilot> jquixote, I've played with the Flight4 liveCD, it's pretty sweet
[11:10] <melanie_> Can anyone tell me how I can isntall a rpm package?
[11:10] <Madpilot> melanie_, generally, you don't want to - what's the rpm of?
[11:10] <stepore> melanie_, use alien
[11:10] <luis_> Question: Its posble install ubuntu version 5.10 or 6.04 32 bits under micro AMD Semprom ( its x64_86 )
[11:11] <xstation> melanie: rpm -ivh
[11:11] <hagg8is> AHHHHH i hate this does my head in lol god u dont really know how much that you need microsoft lol.
[11:11] <defrysk> xstation, ?
[11:11] <xstation> defrysk: sorry
[11:11] <PuMpErNiCkLe> luis_: Yeah.  AMD64 is completely capable of running 32bit code.
[11:11] <melanie_> Madpilot,  it's cgoban
[11:11] <Healot> luis_, YES
[11:11] <stepore> i've got 5.10 32 bit installed on an anthlon 64

[11:15] <stepore> hagg8is, is there a command prompt for what?
[11:15] <damian_> hi i need the exact line for my fstab to mount \\192.168.0.9\"HENDO (D)"\MEDIA read write...its a samba share btw

[11:21] <roico> i had a samba firewall problem, even when i opened the right ports... im connected through a router... i added the router ip to "allow connections from host" (iptables), and now it works (i think...),,, is it unsafe to do that?

[11:22] <luis_> this is the last lines of file syslog
[11:22] <orangehaw> roico: no it's ok
[11:22] <jquixote> Ok, if I remember correctly, they have to be compiled by the same compiler, the pluggin and firefox... or something
[11:22] <jquixote> so, you may have better luck with the sun-jdk
[11:22] <Slex> oh
[11:22] <stepore> luis_, hard to say what to try next other than trying boot options
[11:23] <roico> orangehaw: and why do i have to do it for getting samba to work??? why cant i just open the ports?
[11:23] <gina> qvnrjuiglnru
[11:23] <gina> jvnnhu
[11:23] <gina> rvkvmrkv
[11:23] <stepore> luis, does it fail with the liveCD too?
[11:23] <jquixote> roico: because microsoft doesn't want you to
[11:23] <luis_> the live ubntu brezzy crash
[11:23] <luis_> XD
[11:23] <Psykus> is there anyway to get ut2004 sound working at the same time as other apps using sound? i followed the guide here, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems?highlight=%28sound%29 , under "sound mixing", and now other apps can simultanously use sound, but not ut2004...in the settings, it says it uses "OpenAL"
[11:23] <luis_> and
[11:23] <gina> yes
[11:23] <luis_> the knoppix
[11:23] <orangehaw> roico: probably because it's NAT
[11:23] <luis_> no crash

[11:24] <stepore> luis_, what video card?
[11:24] <rob> ?
[11:24] <luis_> nvidia
[11:24] <gina> ik stop
[11:24] <PuMpErNiCkLe> gina :p
[11:24] <orangehaw> roico: just read samba manual, it's perfect
[11:24] <MyST1C> selbstmord, whats wrong? are there any errors?
[11:24] <rob> PuMpErNiCkLe, whats going on?
[11:24] <gina> oke
[11:24] <stepore> modules look for nvidia?
[11:24] <luis_> and now i use drivier nv
[11:24] <luis_> not propieatry driver
[11:24] <PuMpErNiCkLe> rob: Just gina acting like someone dumped a cat on her keyboard.
[11:24] <lightstep> how do i use the session manager tool? it had no sessions, i defined one, now it has both this and Default. but i can't edit or delete any session, and generally the program ignores which session i select
[11:24] <stepore> did you try the propietary nvidia driver?
[11:24] <jquixote> luis_: whats the problem? I missed the question
[11:25] <Psykus> ut2004 says "open /dev/[sound/] dsp: Device or resource busy" when I launch it when something else is playing sound
[11:25] <gina> kop dicht
[11:25] <kristopher> I'm using Glade, but it looks really ugly and doesn't have the Gnome theme, does anyone know why?
[11:25] <selbstmord> MyST1C, Nah, I just get the "please wait" screen and then nothing happens. And if I try to run it in winxp-mode, it says "Fallout requires at least 20mb of free hd space"
[11:25] <luis_> its imposible install propietary driver under brezzy for mi now, ever crash
[11:25] <PuMpErNiCkLe> lol rob
[11:25] <luis_> and in drapper, all changes more faster
[11:25] <Slex> every time I boot up firefox I get a "the file /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html cannot be found. Please check the location and try again." error
[11:25] <stepore> luis_, when you run knoppix do an lsmod and find out what it loads for drivers?
[11:25] <bimberi> +o was scary enough
[11:25] <selbstmord> MyST1C, Kinda sucks, seeing as playing Fallout is my only gaming-wish for linux at all
[11:25] <luis_> i no go to configure until aprri
[11:25] <luis_> yes this not do
[11:26] <lightstep> Slex, perhaps define another homepage?
[11:26] <luis_> its a good thing
[11:26] <stepore> you can install drivers without going into gnome, or Xserver
[11:26] <luis_> i will try
[11:26] <Slex> lightstep: ok.. new to linux ;)
[11:26] <stepore> just boot to command line and apt-get the drivers
[11:26] <luis_> in drapper yes, but in brezzy i no have time, the system crash in secons XD
[11:26] <roico> orangehaw: couldnt find it in "man samba"... =\
[11:27] <jquixote> can you install drivers from in gnome? ;)
[11:27] <MyST1C> selbstmord, it should work. what if you try something other then xp?
[11:27] <kristopher> does anyone know how I can theme Glade?
[11:27] <stepore> luis_, the system crash if you just boot to commandline. NO gdm no gnome???
[11:27] <orangehaw> roico: which country are you from
[11:27] <luis_> yes

[11:28] <luis_> crash
[11:28] <stepore> no, i mean stop gdm from starting all together
[11:28] <jquixote> luis_: you're not using an external usb cdrom drive to boot from are you?
[11:28] <selbstmord> MyST1C, I did, I tried all of them, win2k, NT, win98, win95, and all I get is the "please wait" screen and nothing happens
[11:28] <luis_> not install in hard disk
[11:28] <hagg8is> does any 1 know if there is any drivers for nvdia 7800gt or ubuto
[11:28] <luis_> normal hard disk ide
[11:28] <orangehaw> roico: don't know if there's a language specific website for isreal. Try http://ie.samba.org/samba/
[11:28] <jquixote> oh

[11:29] <orangehaw> roico: ow you could also try a GUI config tool for samba
[11:29] <luis_> i goes 2 week with this problem
[11:30] <selbstmord> MyST1C, Oh I see. Well, is it working alright for you? I've looked everywhere, and as you can see, I've gotten very few answers.
[11:30] <selbstmord> MyST1C, well thanks anyway.
[11:30] <stepore> luis_, have you done a memtest on it?
[11:30] <stepore> maybe bad RAM?
[11:30] <dark_light> i created recently a partition named /dev/sda16.. there is my table.. http://pastebin.com/595989 , but my /dev/sda* have only the "sda    sda1   sda10  sda11  sda12  sda13  sda14  sda15  sda2   sda3   sda5   sda6   sda7   sda8   sda9" files.. what should i do? there is any problem to have so many partitions? i heard that extended supports 256 partitions
[11:30] <Healot> roico, try "sadms" -- available at sourceforge.net. for active directory/samba etc...
[11:30] <MyST1C> selbstmord, sorry I couldnt been any help, but 5.1 works GREAT for me
[11:30] <Chousuke> Psykus: that's normal
[11:30] <MyST1C> tho all I play is tactical ops
[11:31] <selbstmord> MyST1C, I've tried 5.0.2, 5.0.3, 5.0.1, 4.2.1 etc

[11:37] <ubuntu> pm me
[11:37] <hagg8is> hi all
[11:37] <luis_> well go to reboot system to see with knoppix the modules
[11:37] <roico> from samba howto: When configuring a firewall, the high order ports (1024-65535) are often used for outgoing connections and therefore should be permitted through the firewall. It is prudent to block incoming packets on the high order ports except for established connections.
[11:37] <luis_> thx for you time
[11:37] <orangehaw> roico: does it function when you're accessing it from a computer outside of your lan
[11:37] <stepore> good luck

[11:42] <ron_> http://pan.rebelbase.com
[11:42] <orangehaw> roico: I don't exactly know what you mean, but i assume you've read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba
[11:43] <dark_light> ron_, "over my head" means "i don't know" ?
[11:43] <ron_> yeah :/
[11:43] <dark_light> ron_, english isn't my first language :)
[11:43] <ozzie> hi all
[11:43] <dark_light> ron_, np.. ^^
[11:43] <ron_> oh
[11:43] <ozzie> i am trying to install nforce drivers and when i try keeps telling me to install binutils whats that ?
[11:44] <ron_> The GNU assembler, linker and binary utilities
[11:44] <ron_> ozzie
[11:44] <hollandlucas> Hi
[11:44] <cedric__> hi !
[11:44] <hollandlucas> Would you guys recommend using prelinking if running KDE?
[11:44] <ozzie> where do i get that
[11:45] <Tomcat_> ozzie: Install build-essential package
[11:45] <ozzie> where do i get that mate
[11:45] <Hoxzer> how do I make folder writable to all users?
[11:45] <ron_> synaptic
[11:45] <Tomcat_> ozzie: Synaptic, apt-get, whatever you want. :)
[11:45] <ozzie> ok ta brb ill go see if i can find it
[11:45] <Tomcat_> Hoxzer: chmod o+w $folder
[11:45] <cedric__> i want to compile wine sources but i've not "acceptable c compiler"
[11:45] <Hobbsee> cedric__: install build-essential
[11:46] <orangehaw> Hoxzer: shares-admin
[11:46] <w3svc> where can i find the gui thats shows my installed hardware?
[11:46] <cedric__> ok
[11:46] <Tomcat_> w3svc: System => Admin => Device Manager
[11:46] <ron_> device manager
[11:47] <ron_> opps
[11:47] <matt__> anyone know how i can get the w32 codecs
[11:47] <bimberi> !w32codecs
[11:47] <ubotu> hmm... 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
[11:47] <w3svc> Tomcat_, thanks found it but... i need to change the drivers aswell
[11:47] <elad`> !codecs
[11:47] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories
[11:47] <ron_> anyone use PAN?
[11:48] <orangehaw> ron_: yeah
[11:48] <ron_> have you tried this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=23434&highlight=pan
[11:48] <Classic-> In how many days cds will shipit?
[11:48] <cedric__> thanks Hobbsee
[11:48] <orangehaw> ron_: no, why
[11:48] <Hobbsee> cedric__: no problems :)
[11:49] <ron_> i get to "make" and it says "bash: make: command not found"
[11:50] <Hobbsee|away> ron_: install build-essentials
[11:50] <orangehaw> ron_: why not use the repository
[11:50] <ron_> its slow
[11:50] <ron_> :/
[11:50] <compubomb> got a question, how should i go on attempting to proove to a library that ubuntu is free if they won't listen to me ? I goto a local community college and i gave them 4 left over ubuntu cd's after i ordered from shipit.ubuntu.com
[11:50] <ron_> line speed is max but the program freezes
[11:51] <compubomb> basically, they told me if i cannot get the makers of ubuntu to fax them a written letter saying they can catalog the cd's that they won't carry it.
[11:51] <Moif> Morning
[11:51] <hollandlucas> morning mate
[11:51] <Tomcat_> compubomb: I'm pretty sure Ubuntu has some legal writing somewhere on the CD... you could show them that.
[11:51] <johnnyb> compubomb, give them a copy of the source code
[11:51] <orangehaw> ron_: ah ok. Did you report that bug and tried to find why it freezes?
[11:52] <Tomcat_> compubomb: Do they need free as in freedom or free as in beer?
[11:52] <judgen> The directory of kernel headers (version 2.6.11) does not match your running
[11:52] <judgen> kernel (version 2.6.12-10-686-smp).  Even if the module were to compile
[11:52] <judgen> successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.
[11:52] <judgen> what do i do?
[11:52] <hollandlucas> I don't think they would know what to with the source
[11:52] <compubomb> Tomcat_: unfortunately, all the cd roms at my campus at disabled via the bios so they cannot see the legal documentation.
[11:52] <w3svc> how do i install new hardware drivers? a easy way if there is
[11:52] <johnnyb> compubomb, point them to the website
[11:53] <johnnyb> or the GPL
[11:53] <Tomcat_> compubomb: Well you could print it out...
[11:53] <compubomb> johnnyb: i think i'm comming to realize that these women are total drones who don't even know how to be librarians
[11:53] <judgen> w3svc: apt-get them
[11:54] <elad`> Anything for Linux that works with NZBs?
[11:54] <Tomcat_> compubomb: Most "librarians" don't even care about current copyright legislation...
[11:54] <johnnyb> compubomb, take them a laptop with it running ubuntu and show them
[11:54] <cyphase> although it's running very well for the specs
[11:54] <hollandlucas> And I think, I'm coming to realise that RPMs suck
[11:54] <arnoud> hello all
[11:54] <arnoud> I have a Q
[11:54] <hollandlucas> then you should ask maet
[11:54] <hollandlucas> *mate
[11:54] <arnoud> Why is it impossible to install Ubuntu on my laptop *E drive*
[11:54] <Tomcat_> compubomb: And they should, because if it stays the way it is, in 50 years there won't be anything to have a library for... DRM and digitally restricted stuff everywhere.
[11:54] <cyphase> hollanlucas, they suck big time :)
[11:55] <bimberi> compubomb: Did you point out the text on the CD "You are legally entitled and encouraged to copy, share and redistribute..."?
[11:55] <cyphase> apt-get ruleZ!!!!!!11!!!11eleventy
[11:55] <arnoud> I insert the bootdisc, and it starts up... but then it stops and I only have a black screen
[11:55] <hollandlucas> First of all, there is no E drive when it comes to unix
[11:55] <arnoud> I know
[11:55] <RemyLaptop> hey guys, anyone know how to get an MP3 player to work on ubuntu ?
[11:55] <jquixote> I love that eleventy bit
[11:55] <jquixote> tickles me pink
[11:55] <arnoud> but I made space under windows on the e drive
[11:55] <RemyLaptop> any ideas what program to use ?  it's a rio 500
[11:56] <ron_> orangehaw: i haven't i was hoping this would fix it :/
[11:56] <compubomb> bimberi: i did, and they looked at me as though i were playing a prank on them.
[11:56] <hollandlucas> well, you should just use the ubuntu disk to resize your windows partitions
[11:56] <hollandlucas> then you can create new ones
[11:56] <hollandlucas> and install ubuntu on those
[11:56] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, work how?
[11:56] <jquixote> RemyLaptop: have you tried just opening it as a usb mass storage device?
[11:56] <RemyLaptop> onpe
[11:56] <RemyLaptop> hollandlucas how would I do that >
[11:56] <RemyLaptop> ?
[11:56] <bimberi> compubomb: sheesh :)
[11:56] <Ohm> How Can I pause a program using GCC compiler, I can't use conio.h -> getch();, What I must use?
[11:56] <arnoud> I have enough space, and I did the same with my desktop (which is now running Ubuntu)
[11:57] <Classic-> In how many days cds will shipit?
[11:57] <bimberi> Classic-: 4-6 weeks
[11:57] <arnoud> The problem is that as soon as it boots from disc, It starts unpacking, and then it stops, and the only thing I can do is restart the machine
[11:57] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, can you use the terminal?
[11:57] <Classic-> thanks.
[11:57] <bimberi> Classic-: yw :)
[11:58] <elad`> I've got an NZB and I don't know how to use it under Linux.
[11:58] <Ohm> someone use GCC compiler?
[11:58] <mcphail> Ohm: if you need to pause a terminal to wait for a keypress, I think you'd be better exploring (n)curses
[11:58] <hollandlucas> elad': get yourself sabnzbd, ninan or hellanzb etc.
[11:59] <hollandlucas> or if you prefer there is some KDE app that can handle nzbs? Name? I've forgotten
[11:59] <RemyLaptop> johnnyb yes
[11:59] <arnoud> Holland Lucas
[11:59] <arnoud> U dutch?
[11:59] <hollandlucas> no, I'm not Dutch mate
[11:59] <Ohm> I want pause a program C, during your execution
[11:59] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, well plug in your mp3 player and in terminal type sudo su and then your password
[12:00] <hollandlucas> I am British
[12:00] <arnoud> Do U have any idea how it is possible that it won't install on my laptop?
[12:01] <RemyLaptop> johnnyb done
[12:01] <Ohm> I used the function  GETCH() in DEVC++ for windows, this function is in the CONIO,H library, this library dont is present in GCC
[12:01] <Ohm> this is my problem
[12:01] <elad`> hollandlucas, which do you recommend?
[12:01] <johnnyb> as root -- fdisk -l /dev/sda see if you get anything?
[12:01] <hollandlucas> mmm
[12:01] <hollandlucas> depends
[12:01] <hollandlucas> they are all kind of server sided
[12:01] <hollandlucas> means you're running a server
[12:01] <jquixote> one of the thing preventing me from taking up further ubuntu is it's lack of standards compliance, ie LSB
[12:01] <mcphail> Ohm: Unix programs rarely busy-wait on an event
[12:01] <hollandlucas> I'd recommend sabnzbd
[12:02] <Ohm> mcphail I don't understand
[12:02] <elad`> server-sided? I'm a client.
[12:02] <Psykus> is there any way to use volume control buttons in a fullscreen app? normally when I press the volume up/down buttons, a volume meter pops up in gnome and goes up/down, but in fullscreen games, nothing happens
[12:02] <hollandlucas> I know you are
[12:02] <RemyLaptop> johnnyb what next?
[12:02] <hollandlucas> but your machine will be running a server in the background. You'll control the whole stuff using a webinterface
[12:02] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, what did you get?
[12:02] <ozzie> hey guys is there any to view and use stuff from NTFS harddrive which i have set up as HDA
[12:02] <PuMpErNiCkLe> jquixote: odd, that's one of the things I like about it
[12:03] <elad`> sabnzbd - that's the correct spelling?
[12:03] <jquixote> PuMpernickle: why?
[12:03] <arnoud> Too bad no one can help me.......
[12:03] <RemyLaptop> johnnyb, nothing, just a root terminal
[12:03] <hollandlucas> yes sabnzbd
[12:03] <Hackphil> bonjour
[12:03] <we2by> where do I get the ubuntu dvd??
[12:03] <mcphail> Ohm: it is considered "bad form" to hog cpu cycles waiting for a keypress. Linux is a multi-user , multi-tasking environment
[12:03] <johnnyb> yes, in the terminal -- type 'fdis -l /dev/sda
[12:03] <johnnyb> sorry -- fdisk -l /dev/sda
[12:04] <ozzie> johnny b that to me
[12:04] <johnnyb> nope - t0 RemyLaptop
[12:04] <ozzie> k soz
[12:04] <ozzie> hey guys is there any to view and use stuff from NTFS harddrive which i have set up as HDA?
[12:04] <we2by> where do I get the ubuntu dvd??
[12:04] <johnnyb> ozzie, is it mounted?
[12:05] <ozzie> what do u mean by that am bit new to linux
[12:05] <bimberi> ozzie: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[12:05] <RemyLaptop> johnnyb, done
[12:05] <RemyLaptop> still nothing appearing
[12:05] <ozzie> cheers guys
[12:05] <bimberi> ozzie: np :)
[12:06] <Fable> neone know how to set up ur gig network card to 100mb only
[12:06] <mcphail> Ohm: I'd suggest you pick up a copy of "Beginning Linux Programming" by Neil Matthew and Richard Stones. Read the chapters on the curses library.
[12:07] <Ohm> hmmm
[12:07] <jquixote> it's a disrto like ubuntu that could really launch lsb
[12:07] <mcphail> Ohm: but this is offtopic here
[12:07] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, try 'dmesg |tail -n 20' see if there was any usb drive recognized
[12:07] <Ohm> I found a PDF in the NET?
[12:07] <jquixote> anyone read the dell interview on linux recently?
[12:07] <ozzie> i now officaily LOVE ubuntu
[12:07] <Fable> neone know how to set up ur gig network card to 100mb only
[12:07] <jquixote> dell will support linux if there is greater standards compliance amongst distros
[12:08] <jquixote> what are the downsides of the lsb?

[12:09] <roico> i had a samba firewall problem, even when i opened the right ports... im connected through a router... i added the router ip to "allow connections from host" (iptables), and now it works (i think...),,, is it unsafe to do that?
[12:10] <joshhendo> yo
[12:10] <jquixote> yeerp
[12:10] <joshhendo> does anyone here know of a program that will allow me to turn dvds into video files (mpg prefered)
[12:10] <ozzie> any ideas or do i have to install the mp3 codec ect.
[12:11] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, it's there, just look for it in terminal. try fdisk -l /dev/sda or /dev/sdb so on so on. it should be there
[12:11] <elad`> hollandlucas, I downloaded and am successfully using klibido. Is sabnzbd better, or should I just stick with klibido's limited functionality?
[12:11] <jquixote> play plays mp3s I believe
[12:11] <matt__> how do i install the font in mplayer??? anyone
[12:11] <jquixote> linux cli: play
[12:11] <joshhendo> ozzie, you will have to install the mp3 codec
[12:11] <matt__> is it sudo apt-get install mplayer_fonts
[12:11] <mcphail> joshhendo: dvd::rip
[12:11] <joshhendo> thanks

[12:19] <ZigZag> hi all! I'm going to buy a wireless network card/adapter for my grandmother, that is using ubuntu. Any suggestions as to which one to buy that would cause the least problems?
[12:19] <jquixote> ozzie: open office
[12:19] <khxxm> i used to have my mp3 playlist in winxp on scheduletask as a wakeup alarm with mp3 playing
[12:19] <ozzie> KOOL guys u all have been a great help and thx again see you all bye
[12:19] <khxxm> is there a software that I can do that in linux?
[12:19] <jquixote> ozzie: k3b, firefox, open office, vlc
[12:20] <RemyLaptop> johnnyb I installed  a rio software from the package manager, but when I run that it doesn't recognise the player as being in the system
[12:20] <arnoud> I downloaded Airsnort, but which program do I have to use to install it?
[12:20] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, ok, unplug it and plug it again and look at the bottom of /var/log/dmesg to see if it gets assigned to one of the /dev/sd?
[12:20] <hollandlucas> What do you guys prefer: KOffice or OpenOffice? Why?
[12:20] <roico> i had a samba firewall problem, even when i opened the right ports... im connected through a router... i added the router ip to "allow connections from host" (iptables), and now it works (i think...),,, is it unsafe to do that?
[12:21] <jquixote> khxxm: cron and play
[12:21] <jquixote> arnoud: a .deb?
[12:22] <jquixote> hollandlucas: OO, cause I never used KOffice, but I heard KOffice is faster
[12:22] <hollandlucas> I'll try KOffice later today
[12:22] <RemyLaptop> johnnyb , I unplugged it, then plugged it in and went: more /var/log/dmesg | tail -20
[12:22] <damian_> hi im adding this line to my fstab why dosent it work?
[12:22] <damian_> /192.168.1.6/"HENDO (D)" /smbfs		smbfs    rw,user,noauto  0       0
[12:22] <RemyLaptop> and there was no reference to anyhting liket hat
[12:23] <elad`> What's the keyboard-shortcut for moving between virtual-desktops, and how do I change it?
[12:23] <jquixote> damian_: no one here knows the answer to your question at this time.. try later
[12:23] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, and nothing?
[12:23] <arnoud> yes its a .deb
[12:23] <[Leo] > hi all!
[12:23] <edan> whats dma????
[12:23] <jquixote> arnoud: try dpkg -h to get help on installing .deb packages
[12:24] <RemyLaptop> johnnyb a grep for /dev/sd in that file showed nothing
[12:24] <jquixote> edan: hdd acceleration
[12:24] <jquixote> hi
[12:24] <johnnyb> RemyLaptop, see is you have a scsi device in /proc?
[12:24] <RemyLaptop> how ?
[12:24] <johnnyb> cat /proc/scsi/
[12:24] <edan> jquixote, im compiling my kernel now... how do i know if need to enable this option?
[12:25] <RemyLaptop> I have two folders in there
[12:25] <jquixote> how old is your computer?
[12:25] <damian_> hi im adding this line to my fstab why dosent it work?
[12:25] <damian_> /192.168.1.6/"HENDO (D)" /smbfs		smbfs    rw,user,noauto  0       0
[12:25] <RemyLaptop> device_info and scsi
[12:25] <johnnyb> what's in scsi?
[12:25] <jquixote> dma is pretty common on newer systems
[12:25] <edan> not really old
[12:25] <RemyLaptop> I meant two files, not two folders.
[12:25] <RemyLaptop> ok, I've gotta head!
[12:25] <RemyLaptop> thanks for your help mate.
[12:25] <RemyLaptop> I'll try again tomorrow.
[12:25] <edan> p4 1.5 gforce 4....
[12:25] <RemyLaptop> bye!
[12:26] <jquixote> edan, it's probably dma cabaple, but you it probably says so on the outside of the drive
[12:26] <Gori> hi there...
[12:26] <edan> wich drive do you mean jquixote ?
[12:26] <jquixote> your hard drive
[12:26] <WilliamCai> Hello Ubuntu folks,
[12:26] <jquixote> dma is a capability that some hard drives have
[12:27] <jquixote> hi WilliamCai
[12:27] <edan> ok ill chck it out thnx
[12:27] <jquixote> edan: np
[12:27] <Gori> can anoyone tell me if ubuntu-server 5.10 plays nice with the Xeon emt64T processors ?
[12:27] <WilliamCai> I encounter the following error message during "apt-get update"
[12:27] <WilliamCai> Fetched 193B in 17s (11B/s)
[12:27] <WilliamCai> Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy-backports/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[12:27] <WilliamCai> Reading package lists... Done
[12:27] <WilliamCai> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy-backports/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy-backports_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[12:27] <WilliamCai> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[12:27] <WilliamCai> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[12:27] <jquixote> WilliamCai: that's called flooding and it's illegal
[12:27] <roico> i had a samba firewall problem, even when i opened the right ports... im connected through a router... i added the router ip to "allow connections from host" (iptables), and now it works (i think...),,, is it unsafe to do that?
[12:28] <WilliamCai> sorry,
[12:28] <jquixote> it kills small seals, and baby jesus
[12:28] <WilliamCai> just want to paste the error message...
[12:28] <jquixote> WilliamCai: that is an issue that I've had with ubuntu too.. I've never gotten great resolution, though I'm not too savy anyway.. what works sometimes is going to source-o-matic and making a new source.list
[12:29] <gabriel> when i install ubunto for first time, what is the pwd for getting in super-use mode?
[12:29] <jquixote> probably /root/
[12:29] <WilliamCai> jquixote: thanks
[12:29] <jquixote> np
[12:30] <jquixote> gabriel: I thought you meant present working directory
[12:30] <elad`> !ntfs
[12:30] <ubotu> from memory, ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[12:30] <jquixote> gabriel: there is no root password.. it's just your password you gave
[12:30] <gabriel> i've just installed ubuntu's last version, and for first time. Does gdesklets work fine? they don't appear in synaptics...
[12:31] <elad`> "With the release of Breezy Badger (Ubuntu 5.10), this step should be almost automatic. Until then, however," - But I AM using 5.10.
[12:31] <gabriel> jquixote, if i try to install using dpkg it asks me to go -su, and, it's not my password
[12:32] <jquixote> yea, maybe your not a wheel user or something
[12:32] <johnnyb> gabriel, get automatix i think gdesklets is there
[12:32] <gabriel> thanks johnnyb
[12:32] <jquixote> I think you can make yourself a wheel user somehow
[12:32] <roico> i had a samba firewall problem, even when i opened the right ports... im connected through a router... i added the router ip to "allow connections from host" (iptables), and now it works (i think...),,, is it unsafe to do that?
[12:33] <knoppix> Hey ...
[12:33] <jquixote> knoppix?
[12:34] <jquixote> *get him*
[12:34] <knoppix> Yeah ... /usr-partition down ..
[12:34] <knoppix> ;/
[12:34] <gabriel> what ports use bittorrent to comunicate? i have to open those on my router... anyone knows? thanks
[12:34] <k31th> Do you guys find ubuntu slow in general
[12:34] <jquixote> eek
[12:34] <johnnyb> gabriel, sure no prob -- just checked it's there alright
[12:34] <jquixote> k31th: no
[12:34] <elad`> !xvid
[12:34] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, elad`
[12:35] <jquixote> roico: no
[12:35] <gabriel> tanks again johnnyb
[12:35] <k31th> jquixote: is ubuntu the only distro you have used?
[12:35] <Gori> !ibm
[12:35] <jquixote> k31th: no
[12:35] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Gori
[12:35] <johnnyb> gabriel, bittorrent ports  6881:6886
[12:35] <k31th> jquixote: ever used gentoo ?
[12:35] <jquixote> k31th: yea
[12:35] <roico> jquixote: do u know why it works only when i do that?
[12:35] <k31th> jquixote: what did you think of it ?
[12:36] <funkyHat> how do I make sure beagled starts? just put it in my session?
[12:36] <jquixote> I'd say i've seen marginal performance differences for difference packages on different distros
[12:36] <funkyHat> 'startup programs'
[12:36] <jquixote> on average though, ubuntu has been acceptable performance
[12:36] <k31th> jquixote: i ment in general tbh
[12:36] <k31th> not just speed
[12:36] <knoppix> Is there a opinion to bring the files from my usr-partition, which were moved by the fsck.ext3 to the lost&found-directory, to their old place?
[12:36] <hollandlucas> installing kubuntu right now
[12:37] <roico> jquixote: do u know why it works only when i do that?
[12:37] <jquixote> k31th: I liked gentoo, I'm just very busy
[12:37] <maxkelley> hey, can someone help me? whenever I click switch user on the locked screen or switch to another vt, it logs out of my xsession, and restarts X/gdm... can someone help
[12:37] <jquixote> I'm selfish with my time
[12:37] <k31th> i may swap from gentoo on my work pc as its just to slow in effect. As i have to compile every thing and i just dont have the time for it as im so busy
[12:37] <Healot> knoppix: , "cp" or "mv"
[12:37] <maxkelley> anyone heard of this?
[12:37] <General_Error> Hi, I'm having a bit of a problem, When I put in Live CD, It loads up but fails to load up X Server or whatever it is an am stuck at a console....
[12:37] <k31th> jquixote: same dont have the time to admin it etc
[12:37] <maxkelley> General_Error: are you running it on a laptop?
[12:38] <General_Error> It works perfectly on my laptop, this is on my PC
[12:38] <knoppix> Yeah Healot, but i don't know, what which file is, coz they r all renamed.
[12:38] <jquixote> roico: roico.. because you weren't allowing connections from that router?
[12:38] <Moif> hello, I've confused myself a little, I'm trying to find out which HOWTO I need to install ATI drivers for a Radeon 9500
[12:38] <maxkelley> what video hardware are you using, General_Error
[12:38] <General_Error> Sapphire ATi Radeon X800 GTO
[12:38] <Healot> knoppix: , there is no way to figure that out either, because the FS inode entries are changed...
[12:38] <jquixote> k31th: rgr
[12:38] <k31th> rgr ?
[12:39] <Moif> Should this one do the job? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=408111 ?
[12:39] <jquixote> I find ubuntu acceptable
[12:39] <maxkelley> General_Error: google for "ubuntu problems ati radeon x800 gto" or something to that effect
[12:39] <Healot> as well as renamed files...
[12:39] <roico> jquixote: what do u mean?
[12:39] <General_Error> ok maxkelley, thanks :)
[12:39] <putrajohor> HALLO
[12:39] <maxkelley> np
[12:39] <knoppix> Hmpf ... Okay ... Thx Healot ... Have to install Ubuntu new. :X
[12:39] <jquixote> k31th: roger
[12:39] <k31th> going to install ubuntu on this box i think
[12:39] <putrajohor> how to playing mp3
[12:39] <johnnyb> General_Error, try installing the ati drivers
[12:39] <Moif> putrajohor, you need Automatix
[12:40] <Healot> you've done fsck, right, knoppix?
[12:40] <General_Error> johnnyb, how do I do that?
[12:40] <Healot> !automatix
[12:40] <ubotu> automatix is probably 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.
[12:40] <jquixote> roico: pm me
[12:40] <knoppix> Yeah Healot
[12:40] <Healot> dude try "easysource" instead
[12:40] <shiv> How do I set up firefox to popup xchat with IRC links?
[12:40] <k31th> shiv: use the force
[12:40] <jquixote> k31th: what kind of network do you have at work? ldap or anything?
[12:41] <morphix> what is this port used for? dec-notes       3333/tcp ??
[12:41] <knoppix> what is "easysource"?
[12:41] <putrajohor> Moif, u read this msg There were no decoders found to handle the stream, you might need to install the corresponding plugins
[12:41] <k31th> jquixote: i may setup ldap for system auth why ?
[12:41] <Moif> yeah you need codecs
[12:41] <athlon> !garnome
[12:41] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, athlon
[12:41] <johnnyb> General_Error, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI?highlight=%28binary%29
[12:41] <jquixote> k31th: because dapper is supposed to be a good version for enterprises
[12:41] <Healot> putrajohor:, install all the "gstreamer" plugins, or try another player like "vlc" or "gxine"
[12:41] <Moif> I used automatix to install the ones I needed and it was sorted
[12:41] <General_Error> johnnyb, thanks :)
[12:41] <shiv> k31th: what force?
[12:41] <jquixote> should have ldap auth etc
[12:42] <k31th> shiv: do you not watch starwars :p
[12:42] <johnnyb> General_Error, you essentially need the 'fglrx' drivers
[12:42] <maxkelley> anyone have any idea what would cause gdm to restart when I go to a new vterm?
[12:42] <putrajohor> i dont have any player
[12:42] <jquixote> ubotu: I got hit by a windmill
[12:42] <ubotu> jquixote: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:42] <General_Error> ok, thanks, should I install unbuntu or can i do that from Live CD?
[12:42] <jquixote> no lie
[12:42] <junming> hello i have a problem... whenever i try to play a video it plays but the display is completely blue
[12:42] <shiv> Is this a moderated chat?
[12:43] <junming> it didn't do that about an hour ago
[12:43] <maxkelley> shiv: like how so?
[12:43] <junming> does anyone know what the problem is?
[12:43] <k31th> jquixote: yes i read that. dapper is the next release currently not stable ? I can upgrade to dapper when the distro goes live with apt by changing my sources correct ?
[12:43] <jquixote> k31th: I don't know how to update
[12:43] <shiv> maxkelley: I was expecting a seriousanswer from k31th rather making fun...
[12:43] <johnnyb> General_Error, from the live cd .. just apt-get install xserver-xorg-driver-ati
[12:43] <General_Error> ok thanks
[12:44] <johnnyb> General_Error, then you have to add 'fglrx' in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:44] <k31th> shiv: sorry. wat was the question again/
[12:44] <jquixote> I'm just going to download dapper... I've gone on a little distro stroll lately
[12:44] <NegativeSpace> Is there a piece of software that lets one configure the touchpad on a laptop?
[12:44] <shiv> How do I set up firefox to popup xchat with IRC links?
[12:44] <General_Error> johnnyb, and how would I do that?
[12:44] <k31th> shiv: hang on il look  into it
[12:44] <johnnyb> General_Error, lol...
[12:44] <roico> jquixote: now i can access the other computer (xp), but that computer cant access mine... whats the problem???... im sure its a fw problem, when i disable it, it works... all the right ports r open (via firestarter), and i also allowed all connection from the hosts: 192.168.1.1 (router), 192.168.1.3 (other xp pc)...
[12:44] <General_Error> lol
[12:45] <jquixote> NegativeSpace: you might be able to hack it up in xorg.conf
[12:45] <maxkelley> shiv: if we don't know the answer (which happens most of the time) then we probably can't answer it.. but hey, there's no official tech support that comes with ubuntu, just users helping othere
[12:45] <maxkelley> *others
[12:45] <johnnyb> General_Error, after you do apt-get insall, and it installs the drivers. open a terminal under applications ...
[12:45] <jquixote> shiv: some mime settings
[12:45] <johnnyb> General_Error, then in terminal become root by typing sudo su
[12:45] <Psykus> is there anyway to get keyboard volume control buttons working in full screen apps?
[12:45] <NegativeSpace> jquixote That's probably too hardcore for me, but I'll have a look. Thanks.
[12:45] <Healot> mime-settings isn't easy, but if you're in KDE... look at the KDE control, under browser...
[12:45] <johnnyb> General_Error, there's more ... wanna continue?
[12:46] <jquixote> np
[12:46] <General_Error> sur
[12:46] <General_Error> sure*
[12:46] <wasskil> is p3scan and havp programs run in ubuntu?
[12:46] <General_Error> ill paste it into notepad, print it off and use it when i do it lol
[12:46] <wasskil> or can it be installed using apt-get?
[12:46] <roico> jquixote: now i can access the other computer (xp), but that computer cant access mine... whats the problem???... im sure its a fw problem, when i disable it, it works... all the right ports r open (via firestarter), and i also allowed all connection from the hosts: 192.168.1.1 (router), 192.168.1.3 (other xp pc)...
[12:46] <jquixote> roico: there are too many possible variables to the problem that we could not understand without more information
[12:47] <roico> jquixote: what moew information do u need?
[12:47] <roico> *more
[12:47] <k31th> shiv: ok load firefox. in the url field type about:config and change the setting
[12:47] <CarinArr> wasskil, p3scan is available, dunno about havp
[12:47] <johnnyb> General_Error, then you'll have to use vi in terminal. 'vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf' and change the reference of 'ati' to 'fglrx'
[12:47] <jquixote> roico: can you ping each box from the other box?
[12:47] <shiv> maxkelley: I am pretty sure of what you said. But there are people who are spending a lot of time trying to get away from the claws of windows and are serious.
[12:48] <Nitro88> hi all
[12:48] <shiv> k31th: thanks man
[12:48] <Nitro88> i've got a big problem
[12:48] <Nitro88> i can't burn cd
[12:48] <putrajohor> Healot, this is 1st time i`m use this ubuntu, ware i cant get mp3 player
[12:48] <General_Error> ok thanks dude :)
[12:48] <k31th> shiv: you want some thing like 'network.protocol-handler.app.irc = /usr/bin/xchat-2  /* use xchat */'
[12:48] <johnnyb> General_Error, it could be easier to open it up in 'gedit' from terminal ...
[12:48] <wasskil> CarinArr, i tried sudo apt-get install p3scan  , didnt work
[12:48] <Healot> putrajohor:, get "xmms"
[12:48] <General_Error> alright then
[12:48] <General_Error> thanks
[12:48] <CarinArr> wasskil, does it give you an error message or anything?
[12:48] <Nitro88> when i start burning, the cd doesn't start to rotate
[12:49] <johnnyb> General_Error, point is you need to be root to edit that file .. you can open up gedit (notepad) as root and edit it there. much easier if you don't like terminal
[12:49] <Nitro88> and the bar keep on 0%
[12:49] <k31th> shiv: let me know how you get on
[12:49] <Nitro88> why?
[12:49] <knoppix> Healot, i cant cp the "#"-directories from the lost+found directory.
[12:49] <Healot> knoppix: , "su" yourself by using "sudo" :)
[12:49] <wasskil> it says couldnt find package
[12:49] <roico> jquixsote: i get error about "unable to get path" when i try to open a share from the xp pc... i cant check pinging right now...
[12:49] <CarinArr> wasskil, it's available for me
[12:49] <CarinArr> wasskil, you running breezy?
[12:50] <wasskil> 5.10
[12:50] <jquixote> so who's running xgl?
[12:50] <madbull> hi, I'm having a problem playing cds, I can play mp3s playing cds, i can see that xmms, or kcd etc. are playing them but i hear no sound
[12:50] <knoppix> It doesn't func, Healot. I already tried it ...
[12:50] <quad_> is it possible to apply the password in a 'ssh -X user@my.sever.com' line anywhere?
[12:50] <CarinArr> !info p3scan
[12:50] <ubotu> p3scan: (transparent POP3-proxy with virus- and spam-scanning), section universe/mail, is optional. Version: 2:2.1-2 (breezy), Packaged size: 148 kB, Installed size: 420 kB
[12:50] <k31th> madbull: have you set the app to use ALSA ?
[12:50] <wasskil> CarinArr, 5.10 is breezy right?
[12:51] <madbull> k31th, alsa is that a sound driver or server?
[12:51] <jquixote> quad_: ssh -h?
[12:51] <roico> jquixsote: i get error about "unable to get path" when i try to open a share from the xp pc... i cant check pinging right now...
[12:51] <CarinArr> wasskil, yeah.. you will need to enable the universe repository tho
[12:51] <funkyHat> checking for gaim... Package gaim was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gaim.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'gaim' found
[12:51] <knoppix> found the error, Healot .
[12:51] <funkyHat> :S ^
[12:51] <wasskil> how do i enable universe repo?
[12:51] <quad_> jquixote, ok, I did not know that... didnt seem to find much in the man-pages
[12:51] <k31th> madbull: load up xmms go to setting prefrances watever and select ALSA for sound
[12:52] <jquixote> quad_: just a wild guess. cause I don't remember the answer
[12:52] <Healot> anyone uses original Windows here?
[12:52] <wasskil> CarinArr, how do i enable it?
[12:52] <Healot> just a little help to download "Windows Defender" :)
[12:52] <quad_> jquixote, oki... i'll check
[12:52] <k31th> madbull: setting > prefrances > first tab  input plugins
[12:52] <gabriel> already working, thanks
[12:52] <madbull> k31th, ok let me try that thank you

[12:53] <jquixote> ubotu: NO FLOODING!
[12:53] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, jquixote
[12:53] <madbull> so output plugin alsa?
[12:53] <rohan> my god ! will ubuntu be delayed by SIX weeks ?!
[12:53] <jquixote> quad_: rgr
[12:53] <funkyHat> !lart jquixote
[12:53] <rohan> s/ubuntu/dapper :P
[12:53] <ozzie> hi al again
[12:53] <Hobbsee> rohan: discussion on that in a few days
[12:53] <jquixote> sometimes it's --help
[12:54] <jquixote> rohan: probably
[12:54] <rohan> Hobbsee: yes .. but still :S its bad ... i was hoping to cancel my net after april once i get a steady and stable dapper :(
[12:54] <rohan> jquixote: :(
[12:54] <rohan> damn
[12:55] <ozzie> how do u get java runtimes to work. i have installed them in the synaptic. And downloaded the, from JAVA.com but cant istall them. Firefox always says that there need manulay installed
[12:55] <quad_> well jquixote, password switch aren't listet anywhere... probabley a security assesment...
[12:55] <ozzie> how do u get java runtimes to work. i have installed them in the synaptic. And downloaded the, from JAVA.com but cant istall them. Firefox always says that there need manulay installed?
[12:55] <Healot> delayed release is really okay... as long as they fixed the bugs they found in the testing version before release the official...
[12:55] <jquixote> funkyHat: what is !lart?
[12:55] <rohan> ozzie: use java-package
[12:55] <Healot> !java
[12:55] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[12:55] <quad_> jquixote, meaning; it does not exist.
[12:55] <ozzie> k
[12:55] <Healot> there you go, ozzie
[12:55] <rohan> Healot: but arent they supposed to have a steady six month release cycle ? :(
[12:55] <madbull> k31th, hmm that didn't seem to work
[12:55] <funkyHat> jquixote, it's a trigger for ubotu, but it looks like he's ignoring it in #ubuntu now. My bad
[12:55] <madbull> xmms just seems to crash
[12:55] <madbull> let me try kcd
[12:55] <jquixote> quad_: what avout login_command ; pwd_cmd
[12:56] <Healot> rohan: , it's free.. so please don't complaint :)
[12:56] <elad`> I opened a New Login on ctrl-alt-f8. How do I close it?
[12:56] <elad`> Without logging in.
[12:56] <k31th> madbull: humm
[12:56] <Healot> this is a lot better than so=long=delayed Windows patches and service packs :)
[12:56] <rohan> Healot: heh, yes.
[12:56] <k31th> madbull: do you have any audio working atm ?
[12:56] <rohan> i am not complaining, just expressing my views ;)
[12:57] <jquixote> ubotu: !lart ubotu
[12:57] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, jquixote
[12:57] <johnnyb> elad`, is it a different user?
[12:57] <jquixote> hmm
[12:57] <madbull> i'm using autorip to rip the cd, i guess its stupid to try and play the cd while i'm ripping mp3s from it?
[12:58] <elad`> johnnyb, I'm currently the only user installed. It's in the log-in screen there. I want to close that, without logging in first.
[12:58] <k31th> madbull: it will take longer + i wouldnt recomend it
[12:58] <Healot> in the mean time... rohan, try to check out other GNU/Linux releases or the test release of Dapper... we might learn something
[12:58] <jquixote> madbull: naaw
[12:58] <elad`> Also - doesn't Ubuntu come installed with something to unpackage RARs ootb?
[12:58] <madbull> ok lets see what happens when autorip finsishes
[12:58] <Healot> elad`: , just press Alt_Ctrl_F7 to get back to X/gnome
[12:58] <madbull> now, i just fired up kscd
[12:58] <k31th> elad`: apt-get install unrar
[12:58] <Jonnings> !javadebs
[12:59] <vook> dapper!=testing dapper==unstable
[12:59] <madbull> and there is an option in there
[12:59] <Healot> elad`: : "unrar"
[12:59] <johnnyb> elad`, install unura
[12:59] <jquixote> elad' do you see a session button?
[12:59] <madbull> which says
[12:59] <johnnyb> unrar
[12:59] <elad`> Healot, I did, but it's still there, open, wasting system resources.
[12:59] <Healot> elad`: :L did you type logout?
[12:59] <madbull> use direct digital playback: select audio backend "alsa
[12:59] <johnnyb> elad`, ok what's there exactly
[12:59] <elkbuntu> vook dapper -is- still in the testing stage, that's what makes it unstable :P
[12:59] <elad`> Healot, it's a graphical login.
[12:59] <Psykus> osm
[12:59] <Psykus> erm
[12:59] <k31th> brb
[12:59] <madbull> i can select the audio backend as alsa or arts
[12:59] <elad`> johnnyb?
[12:59] <madbull> should i enable that and select alsa?
[12:59] <Psykus> isn't dapper about to come out?
[12:59] <vook> elkbuntu, just from a debian point of view, it shouldn't be called testing
[01:00] <johnnyb> elad`, confused? what's open that you're trying to close?
[01:00] <elad`> OK, got unrar installed, it's working. Thanks. Now, about that graphical-login I've got there...
[01:00] <Psykus> oh, nm, flight-5
[01:00] <jquixote> would it be possible to make my ubuntu more 'portable' while on an external harddrive if add more modules to the init.rd?
[01:00] <elad`> johnnyb, a new gdm or whatever it's called is open on alt-ctrl-f8. I'm currently on alt-ctrl-f7.
[01:00] <elkbuntu> vook, and why not? ubuntu != debian
[01:00] <Healot> elad`: : you want to kill X/Login screen/GDM?
[01:00] <vook> elkbuntu, because it's not stable
[01:01] <jquixote> I want my usb harddrive to have hardware detection like the cd does
[01:01] <jquixote> on every boot
[01:01] <elad`> Healot, only the one on alt-ctrl-f8.
[01:01] <elkbuntu> vook if you're in here to troll i suggest you leave before your departure is forced
[01:01] <elad`> Oops - I managed.
[01:01] <Healot> alt+ctrl+f8 -> graphical login?
[01:01] <aass> Does anyone know an apt source that carries x-windows-system? I'm using the default ones now, and they claim it's missing or obsoleted...
[01:01] <elad`> Man, that was a stupid question. Sorry.
[01:01] <johnnyb> elad`, ah. so you can't log off from f8?
[01:01] <elad`> I managed. Never mind. I feel dumb. Well, it fits - I AM dumb.
[01:01] <Healot> hehe
[01:02] <Nameeater> elad`: did you manage to stop the beeps? :)
[01:02] <Healot> nvm, elad`
[01:02] <Healot> being dumb is okay, as long as you realize that fact
[01:02] <jquixote> aass: your source.list could be borked
[01:02] <elad`> what's the shortcut for changing between virtual desktops? You know, workspaces?
[01:02] <renewip> Hi, how can I setup my Ubuntu become a proxy server ?
[01:02] <vook> elkbuntu, I'm not trolling, I use ubuntu.  I just think it would be good for people to know that dapper is not ready and can mess things up really bad.
[01:02] <elad`> Nameeater, yep.
[01:02] <aass> elad`: you're nowhere near me in stupidity.. I had everything working, and then decided to install KDE on top of ubuntu.. Fucked up the x server..
[01:02] <Nameeater> elad`: cool what did you do?
[01:02] <elkbuntu> vook, hence the topic for #ubuntu+1
[01:03] <elad`> Nameeater, through system->prefs->sounds
[01:03] <Healot> elad`: : on GNOME there "Desktop Switcher..."
[01:03] <jquixote> elad' i think ctrl-alt-left|right
[01:03] <jquixote> or somethingm
[01:03] <Nameeater> nice :)
[01:03] <aass> jquixote: I haven't changed the sources.list at all since installing, so I don't see how it could be wrecked.
[01:03] <aass> I checked it, and everything looks fine.
[01:03] <wasskil> any suggestions what to install in my ubuntu to serve as gateway+antivirus+antispam? what programs do i need to install?
[01:03] <Jhair> aass: how is that possible? I did that once with breezy (KDE installed) without problems...
[01:03] <elad`> That's right. Thanks.
[01:03] <elkbuntu> vook there is intentional avoidance of putting dapper relevent info in the topic here, as it confuses the new initiates
[01:03] <Nameeater> systew bell?
[01:03] <johnnyb> wasskil, a firewall!
[01:03] <elad`> Nameeater, I think.
[01:03] <Nameeater> coo
[01:03] <xerox_> Hi.
[01:03] <vook> elkbuntu, agreed
[01:04] <jquixote> aass: repos go down I think, cause it's happened to me
[01:04] <mcphail> aass: have you used any "external" repos to install kde?
[01:04] <elad`> New problem - I can watch AVIs, but there's no sound in some.
[01:04] <wasskil> johnnyb, a firewall like what programs do i need to install using iptables and what else?
[01:04] <Healot> wasskil: : firestarter+aegis or clamav+bogofilter
[01:04] <aass> mcphail: yes, the repository at kubuntu, as described in the "installing KDE on ubuntu" tutorial at madpenguin.
[01:04] <johnnyb> wasskil, get firestarter. that's a front-end to iptables. iptables is there already
[01:04] <elad`> http://www.binage.com/package/show/2163966 - This one. Not sure which codec I'm missing. Ideas?
[01:05] <aass> But how would that ditch the availability of x-window-system from the main repository?
[01:05] <jquixote> elad' is just a bundle of problems ;)
[01:05] <vook> elkbuntu, it was in reference to Healot's recommendation of dapper in this channel.
[01:05] <elad`> (I have a subscription to a cable company showing Scrubs, so it's all clean.)
[01:05] <wasskil> johnnyb, does firestarter includes antivirus and antispam?
[01:05] <elkbuntu> Healot recommended it to who?
[01:05] <elad`> jquixote, got the time?
[01:05] <vook> scroll up
[01:05] <johnnyb> wasskil, firestarter will also let you use internet connection sharing if you plan to do that
[01:06] <Healot> wasskil: firestarter+aegis or clamav+bogofilter >> firewall front-end+ antivirus+antispam
[01:06] <johnnyb> wasskil, nope, no antivirus or spam? do you really need those for some reason?
[01:06] <jquixote> elad': I don't think I have the skills ;)
[01:06] <madbull> hmm that seems to work
[01:06] <madbull> stopped autorip
[01:06] <madbull> started kscd, seems to play fine
[01:06] <wasskil> johnnyb,  of course i really do when this ubuntu box is acting as gateway to my workstations
[01:06] <aass> Commented out any additions I made and updated. Still get the "x-window-system has no install candidate" error.
[01:07] <johnnyb> wasskil, yes, of course if your workstations are windows boxes. then see what Healot suggested
[01:07] <elad`> OK, anyone else? Codecs-problems.
[01:07] <wasskil> ok cool
[01:07] <Healot> aass: , thre is no x-windows-system package in ubuntu
[01:07] <jquixote> elad': despite popular opinion, I used automatix and nothing bad happened
[01:07] <Healot> onlly xserver=xorg and xserver-common...
[01:08] <jquixote> I was thinking, "why didn't i do this when I first started out with ubuntu?
[01:08] <jquixote> "
[01:08] <aass> ok, thanks.
[01:08] <Healot> aass: , are you using Debian, or ubuntu?
[01:08] <wasskil> Healot, have you tried to use that?
[01:08] <ozzie> ok guys got java installed now how do i get Firefox to pick it up?
[01:08] <elad`> jquixote, what?
[01:08] <Healot> wasskil: , I installed that for a company...
[01:08] <Healot> not using ubuntu though...
[01:08] <jquixote> elad': I used automatix
[01:09] <aass> By the way, did they remove xorgconfig between 5.04 and 5.10?
[01:09] <jquixote> or whatever it's called
[01:09] <Healot> aass: , no... it still in there
[01:09] <johnnyb> ozzie, where did you install it to?
[01:09] <aass> strange.. can't seem to find it.
[01:09] <Healot> btw, ubuntu users.... prefer dpkg-reconfigure...
[01:09] <ozzie> emmmm just the basic install i dragged the file in to my home folder then instaled via treminal
[01:09] <elkbuntu> aass what sort of update are you doing? upgrade or dist-upgrade?
[01:09] <jquixote> ozzie: link the java pluggin to the mozilla plugin directory, or something
[01:09] <ozzie> uing line code
[01:09] <Psykus> is there anyway to replace the system bell with a sound effect?
[01:10] <ozzie> sudo apt-get install fakeroot java-package java-common
[01:10] <Celestianpower> cwillu: You here?
[01:11] <johnnyb> ozzie, hmmm. dunno . i usually just download from java.com and get it directly. you'll need to find the libjavaplugin_oji.so file
[01:11] <jquixote> Celestianpower: you just reduced the available width of my window for reading :/
[01:11] <elkbuntu> Psykus, the system bell is something that works independantly of the sound card, generally there is no way to change it, no
[01:11] <wasskil> healot which one? aegis or bogofilter?
[01:11] <Psykus> there's an option to turn it off in the sound menu, and flash the screen instead
[01:11] <Healot> btw, 64bit JDK/JRE doesn't have Java plugin for mozilla
[01:12] <ozzie> k ill look
[01:12] <vook> Psykus, where are you hearing the system bell?  Backspacing in gnome-terminal perhaps?
[01:12] <Psykus> so I don't see why it couldn't play a *.wav instead
[01:12] <jquixote> johnnyb: he did it the java-debs way
[01:12] <Celestianpower> jquixote: :(
[01:12] <Psykus> terminal, yes, when it tries to autocomplete most of the time
[01:12] <jquixote> fricken celestial powers and their long ass names ;)
[01:13] <johnnyb> jquixote, does the deb way include the libjava file to put in the .mozilla/plugins/ directory?
[01:13] <Healot> which one which, wasskil? firestart for firewall frontend, aegis or clamav for antivirus, bogofilter for antispam
[01:13] <jquixote> johnnyb: i think so
[01:13] <Celestianpower> If I'm downloading stuff (not using synaptic because it doesn't work), which versdion do I get? Ferdora? Mandriva? SUSE?
[01:13] <Celestianpower> Debian?
[01:13] <Psykus> Celestianpower, debian
[01:14] <jquixote> I think it's supposed to make the process easier.. otherwise I can't imagine why anyone would use it for anything other than "debian philosophy"
[01:14] <LiGhTeNiN> is there a video codec pack that includes xvid? apt-get doesnt find xvid codec
[01:14] <elkbuntu> Celestianpower, you need to look for .deb extentions
[01:14] <khxxm> trying to add some applications in kcron but happy simple problem finding where is everything located///help newbie
[01:14] <wasskil> Healot, those packages can detect anything passing through external nic right? so that anything goes in and out of my external nic, will be detected
[01:14] <khxxm> having
[01:14] <khxxm> :)
[01:14] <ozzie> does the ckdown version of Java work ok on the ubuntu 64 ok
[01:14] <General_Error> johnnyb, hey again, I've done that, but when I startx it just goes to a blank screen
[01:15] <jquixote> LiGhTeNiN: consult your media player's site for codec documentation.. try vlc
[01:15] <Healot> yes... you can configure it to work with your network hardware...
[01:15] <elkbuntu> General_Error, did you dist-upgrade?
[01:15] <Healot> wasskil
[01:15] <General_Error> no
[01:15] <General_Error> ok
[01:15] <General_Error> im gunna
[01:15] <elkbuntu> General_Error, dont
[01:15] <johnnyb> General_Error, wow. so you changed the reference of 'ati' to 'fglrx'?
[01:15] <General_Error> install it on my harddrive
[01:15] <wasskil> Healot, yes?
[01:15] <elkbuntu> General_Error, oh, you're running the livecd?
[01:15] <shiv> k31th: can u plz join #pastebin
[01:15] <General_Error> yah elkbuntu
[01:15] <General_Error> johnnyb, i did this command
[01:16] <General_Error> sudo sed -e 's/"ati"/"fglrx"/' -i /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:16] <Healot> yes... you can configure it to work with your network hardware... wasskil
[01:16] <Fredde> Could someone help med setup vnc for openbox, because my gnome vnc doesn't work in openbox
[01:16] <Celestianpower> elkbuntu: I downloaded it, now what?
[01:16] <elkbuntu> Celestianpower, dpkg -i filename.deb
[01:16] <elkbuntu> with sudo of course
[01:16] <johnnyb> General_Error, so you just get the command line. no gui?
[01:16] <elkbuntu> i always forget to type sudo :P
[01:16] <wasskil> k
[01:16] <General_Error> yeah, but when i startx it goes to a blank screen
[01:16] <wasskil> thanks Healot
[01:16] <General_Error> it says before that, "xserver failed to start blah blah blah"
[01:17] <dolson> should I install bogofilter or spamassasin or both if I am using Evolution for one POP account?
[01:17] <elkbuntu> General_Error, there is something wrong with the cd. what version is the cd?
[01:17] <General_Error> 5.1
[01:17] <General_Error> 5.10
[01:17] <Healot> wasskil: , if you want a firewall+security specific GNU/Linux, you should try "shorewall"
[01:17] <elkbuntu> there is definatley something wrong with the cd
[01:17] <johnnyb> General_Error, try as sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:17] <elkbuntu> do you have another copy or the iso?
[01:17] <samsara> which version gnome is going to ship in dapper?
[01:17] <jquixote> the second blah is your problem
[01:17] <General_Error> elkbuntu, thin is, it works in my laptop
[01:17] <dolson> samsara: 2.14..
[01:17] <Healot> dolson: , one of them is enough... two lead to trouble... :)
[01:18] <dolson> Healot: which one is recommended? :)
[01:18] <wasskil> Healot, im currently using ipcop
[01:18] <benoitc> hi
[01:18] <samsara> dolson: excellent, thanks!
[01:18] <wasskil> Healot,  shorewall is commercial right?
[01:18] <Healot> spamasssin... dolson
[01:18] <elkbuntu> General_Error, what type of machine are you trying to run it on?
[01:18] <dolson> thanks Healot
[01:18] <elkbuntu> General_Error, ram, specifically
[01:18] <benoitc> anyone know if it's possible to have airport extreme on breezy and having pbbuttonsd working ?
[01:18] <Healot> no, it's rather free... wasskil
[01:18] <jquixote> samsara: it's all ephemeral
[01:18] <LiGhTeNiN> jquixote: I mean, I get an xvid file working under vlc but the picture is noisy
[01:18] <benoitc> I've a powerbook5,6
[01:18] <General_Error> AMD Athlon 64 3000+, Sapphire ATi Radeon X800 GTO
[01:19] <wasskil> hmmm what's the website?
[01:19] <General_Error> 1gb
[01:19] <wasskil> does shorewall includes antivirus+antispam?
[01:19] <General_Error> ram
[01:19] <johnnyb> General_Error, try lsmod|grep fglrx
[01:19] <johnnyb> see if it's listed
[01:19] <jquixote> LiGhTeNiN: hmm.. maybe you need different xvid codecs
[01:19] <General_Error> ok

[01:20] <samsara> jquixote: I assume you've had a look at the performance improvements in 2.14? ;)
[01:20] <samsara> ephemeral, but great to have!
[01:20] <Healot> wasskil: , yes, just antispam... but no antivirus though
[01:20] <General_Error> johnnyb, do i do that after / before apt-get or no aptget at all
[01:20] <Celestianpower> elkbuntu: I got this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9995
[01:20] <gzzzt> hi, i installed the nforce driver with an oss mixer... but my sound is "noisy" since that... is that normal or a misconfiguration?
[01:20] <samsara> jquixote: btw, people pun on my nick so rarely that I'm usually quite naive to it
[01:20] <johnnyb> General_Error, apt-get for what? have you installed the fglrx driver yet?
[01:20] <jquixote> samsara: I was actually refering to your eastern philosophic name, but yea, sweet
[01:21] <General_Error> i gotta install it again, im rebooting the live cd again
[01:21] <General_Error> one sec
[01:21] <jquixote> ah, you caught on ;)
[01:21] <elkbuntu> Celestianpower, debian-binary is the filename?
[01:21] <Ytrecq> Nickserv Ytrecq
[01:21] <Celestianpower> elkbuntu: Yes
[01:21] <elkbuntu> what is it you are trying to install?
[01:21] <Ja1> what is the preferred way of modifying the Application menu to execute  "LANG=en_GB gaim" instead just "gaim"
[01:22] <Celestianpower> elkbuntu: Skype
[01:22] <maxkelley> who asked for me?
[01:22] <elkbuntu> Celestianpower, that's not the right way to do skype, since the skype version on the skype site is pooped
[01:22] <elkbuntu> !skype
[01:22] <ubotu> [skype]  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeHowto/ Breezy deb: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages/
[01:22] <Ytrecq> msg nickserv register 060593 ytrecq@gmail.com
[01:23] <maxkelley> oh shoot! :P
[01:23] <elkbuntu> you're best off doing the alien method
[01:23] <aass> Ok, so I'm running into more problems.. this crap computer has two graphics interfaces.. One integrated Rage Pro and a Radeon 7000. dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg leads to the Rage Pro card being found. How do I make it go to the other one? I tried entering a different pci identifier, but I have no idea on how to translate the reported address from lspci..
[01:23] <Ytrecq>  /msg nickserv register 060593 ytrecq@gmail.com
[01:23] <Jhair> Ja1: Applications Menu Editor ?
[01:23] <maxkelley> aass: can you get signals from both?
[01:23] <maxkelley> Ytrecq: no spaces.
[01:23] <elkbuntu> Ytrecq, i suggest you ditch that password and try from the server dialog rather than in here
[01:23] <maxkelley> Ytrecq: er, no space before the command
[01:23] <maxkelley> and yeah, new password
[01:24] <Ja1>  Jhair: no luck "cannot execute LANG=en_GB"
[01:24] <elkbuntu> server dialog means we dont see even if you stuff up
[01:24] <Ytrecq> thank you
[01:24] <aass> maxkelley: signals? if you mean, do they both work, I assume so. I have no monitor hooked up to the Rage Pro, since I wasn't using it.
[01:24] <maxkelley> aass: hmmm
[01:24] <maxkelley> cause if it's integrated, it may be disabling the integrated gfx.
[01:24] <Toma-> anyone know if the linux dvdshrink can use vfat? i get a FS error from it when i try...
[01:24] <buhh> When I'm trying 2 install I get: Disk Error 20, AX = 4200, drive EF. can anyone help me please?
[01:25] <aass> the Rage Pro is integrated, yes, but it's supposed to disable itself when another graphics card is on the pci bus.
[01:25] <Healot> Toma-: : FAT32 right, and DVD file more than 4Gig will cause you some FS error
[01:25] <aass> And up until 20 minutes ago, that's how it was..
[01:25] <Toma-> ahhhhh of course!
[01:25] <Toma-> silly me :/ brain has been too busy today
[01:25] <maxkelley> aass: well, then that's the problem, isn't it?
[01:25] <Healot> yes... really busy :)
[01:26] <aass> I don't quite know.. my real problem is that the xorgconfig script seems to be missing, and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't have a "radeon" option in the driver list like the script does.
[01:26] <Toma-> thanks Healot :)~
[01:26] <maxkelley> aass: hrmmm.
[01:26] <General_Error> right, johnnyb, i do that lsmod|grep fglrx, nothing happens..
[01:26] <johnnyb> aass, couldn't you just see the module used for your integrated card and then rmmod it?
[01:27] <maxkelley> aass: manually configure xorg.conf ?
[01:27] <aass> maxkelley: I guess that'll have to be the solution... howto-land, here I come..
[01:27] <johnnyb> General_Error, so then fglrx is not loaded
[01:27] <johnnyb> General_Error, nothing happens you mean empty line?
[01:27] <buhh> answer my question ffs :/
[01:27] <elad`> !ape
[01:27] <ubotu> elad`: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:27] <General_Error> no, no empty line, just another line to enter command
[01:27] <elad`> !monkeysaudio
[01:27] <ubotu> elad`: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:28] <Healot> elad`: : you want monkeyaudio plugin?
[01:28] <Toma-> buhh: sadly, we dont all know disk errors of the top of our heads. tried google and the ubuntuforums?
[01:28] <elad`> Healot, yep.
[01:28] <johnnyb> General_Error, right. ok, then try to load the module. do modprob fglrx
[01:28] <Healot> that is one of the vorbis thing right?
[01:28] <buhh> I tried google but I didnt get any results ;S
[01:29] <elad`> I think.
[01:29] <General_Error> -bash: modprob: command not found, i tried modprobe, and got:
[01:29] <Healot> not familiar with other than OGG and OGM
[01:30] <johnnyb> did you sudo su first
[01:30] <johnnyb> you need to be root
[01:30] <General_Error> no lol
[01:30] <aass> Ok, this is almost too stupid.. went into the xorg config and changed the driver to "radeon". voila. everything works again..
[01:30] <Celestianpower> elkbuntu: What about Opera? Can I just get that from their website?
[01:30] <General_Error> Unkown id: modprob, from entering: sudo su modprob fglrx
[01:31] <johnnyb> modprobe!!!
[01:31] <johnnyb> just type sudo su first
[01:31] <Healot> "e" was missing
[01:31] <aass> Thanks for all your help. I'll go bang my head against the wall while chanting "stupid, stupid, stupid aass" repeatedly now.
[01:31] <johnnyb> then modpr then hit tab
[01:31] <General_Error> ok
[01:31] <General_Error> nothing happens
[01:31] <General_Error> just another line
[01:32] <johnnyb> so it loaded?
[01:32] <johnnyb> do lsmog|grep fglrx now
[01:32] <General_Error> ok
[01:32] <johnnyb> lsmod sorry
[01:32] <elkbuntu> Celestianpower, they actually have an opera repo
[01:32] <General_Error> right
[01:32] <General_Error> i did something
[01:32] <johnnyb> General_Error, huh?
[01:32] <Celestianpower> elkbuntu: Remember, my Synaptic is dead

[01:33] <General_Error> how to do that lol
[01:33] <k31th> sweet um up in ubuntu
[01:33] <Healot> elad`: you wanted to play APE files, I guess?
[01:33] <urss> salut
[01:33] <Celestianpower> elkbuntu: Yeah, we've been through this
[01:33] <johnnyb> you did it before with the sed line
[01:33] <General_Error> sudo sed -e 's/"ati"/"fglrx"/' -i /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[01:33] <elkbuntu> Celestianpower, not with me :) can you update?
[01:33] <General_Error> that one?
[01:33] <johnnyb> yes right
[01:33] <General_Error> o

[01:34] <elkbuntu> !enter
[01:34] <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!
[01:34] <johnnyb> but you're root so no need for sudo
[01:34] <farous> Celestianpower: do you use a router

[01:44] <Celestianpower> Can anyone tell me what's going wrong and how tofix it here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9996
[01:45] <Velcro_SP> dapper means sharply dressed doesn't it?
[01:45] <Celestianpower> Velcro_SP: Yes
[01:45] <Velcro_SP> Breezy means relaxed and carefree AFAIK.
[01:45] <farous> alesan: breezy latest stable dapper is the development release
[01:45] <alesan> ok
[01:45] <Velcro_SP> heh heh, oops!
[01:45] <farous> so few weeks before dapper is officialy released
[01:46] <Velcro_SP> spot the newbie ;)
[01:46] <sysusr> hi, how do I find out what my local ip address is?
[01:46] <apokryphos> sysko: sudo ifconfig
[01:46] <mumbles> he someone got there before m
[01:46] <apokryphos> well, the sudo probably isn't necessary.
[01:46] <farous> sysusr: ifconfig or if behind a router type in google what is my ip
[01:47] <sysusr> thanks
[01:47] <bad_chitah> Is thr ne facility in ubuntu like "run application"
[01:47] <apokryphos> bad_chitah: Alt+f2
[01:48] <wasskil> what gui program that can do scp or just like in windows using winscp? what is it in ubuntu gui?
[01:48] <funkyHat> farous, what is my IP is no good if your ISP uses a http proxy
[01:48] <bad_chitah> thnx :)
[01:48] <apokryphos> wasskil: fish:// kioslave on Konqueror, can.
[01:48] <funkyHat> wasskil, nautilus can do it. or gftp
[01:49] <apokryphos> funkyHat: sounds like that's FTP, not GUI ssh (i.e. fish kioslave uses ssh)
[01:49] <funkyHat> apokryphos, gftp supports ssh
[01:49] <apokryphos> funkyHat: nautilus?
[01:49] <funkyHat> apokryphos, yep, that supports ssh too
[01:49] <Nitro88> Hi all
[01:49] <apokryphos> interesting
[01:49] <Nitro88> i've got a problem
[01:49] <Nitro88> with cdrecord
[01:49] <Nitro88> it's that
[01:49] <Nitro88> http://pastebin.com/596164
[01:50] <wasskil> if using konqueror, what do i have to type in the address?
[01:50] <apokryphos> wasskil: fish://username@domainname.com
[01:51] <wasskil> fish?
[01:51] <apokryphos> yes
[01:56] <jquixote> hmm, a lull
[01:57] <elkbuntu> it happens
[01:58] <jquixote> so, you got xgl running?
[01:58] <elkbuntu> jquixote, nope have you tried the #xgl-ubuntu or #ubuntu-xgl channels?
[01:59] <jquixote> hmm.. never knew they existed
[01:59] <elkbuntu> !xgl
[01:59] <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/
[02:00] <elkbuntu> well, seems the one listed there is the better/more official of the two
[02:00] <apokryphos> it is, yes.
[02:01] <kgoetz> hi elkbuntu, apokryphos
[02:01] <elliot_> what is XGL anyway?
[02:01] <kode4u> How to make my script could autorun when system startup?
[02:01] <kgoetz> kode4u: system wide or user?
[02:01] <kode4u> kgoetz: system
[02:01] <kgoetz> elliot_: its an xserver extention ( more or less)
[02:01] <kgoetz> kode4u: add it into /etc/init.d
[02:01] <kgoetz> iirc
[02:02] <apokryphos> kgoetz: hi
[02:02] <apokryphos> elliot_: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Xgl
[02:02] <kgoetz> :)
[02:02] <kode4u> kgoetz: copy my script to the directory?
[02:02] <jquixote> kode4u: an xserver extension that makes your desktop hardware accelarated using opengl
[02:03] <fredrik_> Does anybody know how to get swedish chars work in cicq?
[02:03] <kgoetz> kode4u: /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh i think is what your after
[02:03] <green_earz_> kode4u: here is a couple of links that should help. they for debian but will be ok for ubuntu > http://openchemist.net/linux/howto.php?id=com006 >http://www.debianhelp.org/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=3306&theme=Printer
[02:04] <kode4u> green_earz_: thank you!

[02:14] <kgoetz> wasskil: what?
[02:15] <Psykus> are there any built-in tools for recovering deleted files in linux?
[02:15] <kgoetz> gsuveg: whats that "missing channel" error - is that related?
[02:15] <Psykus> ubuntu I mean
[02:15] <wasskil> i need to see the bandwidth usage of my NIC network interface cards
[02:15] <gsuveg> kgoetz: yes.
[02:15] <gsuveg> kgoetz: i cant upgrade my pear.

[02:15] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic

[02:16] <kgoetz> or if your using riser FS it has the function more or less built in
[02:16] <kgoetz> gsuveg: i can see taht. why did it give a channel error?
[02:17] <Psykus> oh, i'm just using the default FS for ubuntu, is that riser?
[02:17] <elkbuntu> Psykus, ext3 probably
[02:17] <kgoetz> yeh, ext3
[02:17] <elkbuntu> it's the safest to use afaik
[02:17] <kgoetz> its the best tested/oldest.
[02:17] <kgoetz> and default :)
[02:19] <gsuveg> kgoetz: thats my problem ;)
[02:19] <kgoetz> gsuveg: ah ;) well i can only sugest a php channel - i dont know anythinga bout pear or php as such :(
[02:19] <Psykus> i found undelete, but it's for ext2 filesystems...i'm trying to recover from a USB Fat32 drive
[02:19] <gsuveg> kgoetz: the why ask me from related errors ? :)
[02:20] <kgoetz> gsuveg: in case it was something inside my knowlage circle, or someone else could help :/
[02:21] <dolson> kgoetz: hmm, looks like the genericl mail-notification will work. I thought there was something that would use my evolution accounts, but I guess not. thanks!
[02:22] <elkbuntu> kgoetz, gsuveg there's actually a #pear channel, and knowing how #php can be i'd strongly suggest there first
[02:22] <elkbuntu> there == #pear, incase you misunderstood
[02:23] <kgoetz> elkbuntu: thanks. wasnt sure if there was one
[02:23] <ron_> what program opens .rar files
[02:23] <gsuveg> elkbuntu: im on it. but i think ist maybe ubuntu related.
[02:23] <kgoetz> Ron rar
[02:23] <gsuveg> ror_ rar unrar
[02:23] <kgoetz> one in universe and one in multiverse iirc
[02:24] <ron_> ty

[02:24] <elkbuntu> err, sorry for the double nick
[02:25] <Psykus> is it fairly straightforward developing GUI frontends to existing console based programs?
[02:26] <kgoetz> Psykus: it can vary, but it would depend what app you want to write a frontned for
[02:26] <kgoetz> *frontend
[02:27] <Psykus> ok, nm, looking in the package manager, someone beat me to it :P
[02:27] <Psykus> a gnome frontend to wget
[02:27] <kgoetz> lol
[02:27] <Psykus> they even used the same name I was thinking of, "gwget", though it's not a huge surprise
[02:30] <g0dchild> hi, is it possible to copy all the downloaded files in /var/cache/apt (plus all the config files in /etc) and make 'em work on an offline pC?
[02:31] <kgoetz> g0dchild: yeh. just copy them :)
[02:31] <g0dchild> !kde
[02:31] <ubotu> kde is probably A powerful, free desktop environment for UNIX. IRC: #kubuntu #kde ; install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ; ISOs: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/breezy/
[02:33] <g0dchild> ok, to install kde i can either do a `sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop` - suppose i want to use synaptic to install additional apps related to KDE- would it break if I do it manually using synaptic?
[02:34] <Seveas> !goodmorning
[02:34] <ubotu> Gooooooooooooooooooooooooodmorning #ubuntu! It looks like another beautiful ubuntuous day, may humanity be with you and your problems be solved :)
[02:34] <elkbuntu> hey seveas!
[02:34] <kgoetz> hi Seveas
[02:34] <Seveas> hi all
[02:35] <kgoetz> g0dchild: you have to be carefull with synapic - it has a 'only keep 500mb of packages' option - not sure if its on or off by default
[02:35] <IdleOne> g0dchild>  installing kubuntu-desktop will probable install the apps you want from kde if not then you will install the individual package
[02:36] <spanner3003> hi can some one tell my if cedega cvs will install on uduntu?
[02:36] <g0dchild> and whats the better choice for KDE from synaptic? there's universe and then kde-
[02:36] <wasskil> will wine run without a problem in kubuntu?
[02:36] <kgoetz> g0dchild: use 'kubuntu-desktop'
[02:36] <wasskil> im trying to install wine now using apt-get
[02:36] <chuckyp> wasskil, yes
[02:37] <kgoetz> wasskil: 'without problem' is very relative with wine
[02:37] <IdleOne> g0dchild>  use apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:37] <spanner3003> can i get cedega cvs from apt-get?
[02:37] <wasskil> btw ive done that apt-get install kubuntu-desktop but i dont see synaptic but rather a ADEPT
[02:37] <IdleOne> !cedega
[02:37] <kgoetz> spanner3003: no
[02:38] <kgoetz> wasskil: correct. adept is kdes pacakge tool
[02:38] <IdleOne> wasskil>  kde uses adept
[02:38] <spanner3003> what is the best way to install cedega cvs then?
[02:38] <wasskil> oh ok
[02:38] <chuckyp> spanner3003, pay for it then follow their directions.
[02:38] <IdleOne> I heard cedega is (formerly known as WineX) is TransGaming Technologies' proprietary fork of Wine, which is designed specifically for running games written for Microsoft Windows under Linux. As such, its primary focus is implementing the DirectX API. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega and for a list of working games see http://www.transgaming.org/gamesdb or #cedega or http://www.frankscorner.org/
[02:38] <kgoetz> spanner3003: presumably with a compiler
[02:39] <SirKillalot> I used kdm up to now. Now I want to change to GDM, where can I set up my stadnard login manager?
[02:39] <chuckyp> spanner are you the guy on the msg. boards thats asking aobut wine and cs?
[02:39] <ProN00b> dapper out yet ?
[02:39] <chuckyp> ProN00b, no
[02:39] <spanner3003> no
[02:39] <devazion> Hello! Will dapper include compiz and xgl as default or will it have to be installed manually?
[02:39] <selbstmord> Anyone else got problems with running Fallout on Cedega 5.1?
[02:39] <chuckyp> ProN00b, april testing is out on dapper.
[02:39] <chuckyp> devazion, Dapper related talk is in #ubuntu+1
[02:39] <kgoetz> SirKillalot: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm'
[02:39] <SirKillalot> thanks
[02:39] <devazion> chuckyp: Okey, thank you!
[02:40] <IdleOne> SirKillalot>  if you already have GDM installed , at the login screen click session and choose gnome then login

[02:40] <selbstmord> Ka9BaL, yes it does
[02:40] <g0dchild> what gives?
[02:40] <chuckyp> Ka9BaL, yes but you can't write to it.
[02:40] <Ka9BaL> ok
[02:40] <Ka9BaL> thx
[02:40] <IdleOne> !tell g0dchild  about upgrade
[02:40] <kgoetz> g0dchild: good. use the offical ones

[02:42] <Fredde> How do I change charset in centericq?
[02:42] <g0dchild> thanks-
[02:42] <IdleOne> g0dchild>  after upgrade remember you need to enable universe and multiverse
[02:43] <g0dchild> IdleOne, they're already upgraded- but i wish if there a way around upgrading- cause I have an offline system and many other potential machines which i plan to install the version of which I have the CDs from Ubuntu
[02:44] <g0dchild> i mean they
[02:44] <g0dchild> are already marked in the synaptic-> repos
[02:45] <IdleOne> g0dchild>  hoary wont be supported anymore very soon so you may want to upgrade to breezy

[02:52] <General_Error> no
[02:53] <General_Error> 5.10
[02:53] <Seveas> elad`, then you probably added a non-ubuntu repository...
[02:53] <elad`> I had.
[02:53] <gnomefreak> :(
[02:53] <Seveas> you shouldn't - we can't support that
[02:53] <IdleOne> tell General_Error  about ati

[02:53] <Seveas> not really, never used it - sorry
[02:53] <wasskil> heheh after typing apt-get -y install wine for almost 10times it was able to complete downloading it
[02:53] <wasskil> hehehe
[02:53] <IdleOne> !tell General_Error about ati
[02:54] <elad`> Thanks anyway.
[02:54] <geek__> hello all

[02:56] <gnomefreak> Seveas: libdvdcss is a package in ubuntu isnt it?
[02:56] <elkbuntu> and by temp directory, i mean an empty directory on your desktop or in your home folder
[02:56] <Seveas> gnomefreak, no
[02:56] <IdleOne> Seveas>  will there be a clipboard in Dapper to solve that pasting bug?
[02:56] <gnomefreak> oh :(
[02:57] <ruzgar> elkbuntu must i give a specific name to this directory

[02:58] <chuckyp> all runelevs.
[02:58] <kgoetz> chuckyp: check out update-rc.d
[02:58] <IdleOne> Seveas>  not really a bug but didnt know what to call it :/
[02:58] <Seveas> IdleOne, dunno
[02:58] <elkbuntu> Seveas, basically an automated version of how i do it now :P
[02:59] <chuckyp> kgoetz, gotcha
[02:59] <kgoetz> IdleOne: an anoyance
[02:59] <IdleOne> kgoetz>  ^
[02:59] <Seveas> elad`, that page is on crack - mixing debian and ubuntu repos is a recipe for disaster
[02:59] <elad`> Seveas,  I downloaded the dependant package, and its dependencies, and henceforth, and installed them. Now Synaptic tells me I've got 6 broken packages. What?
[02:59] <kgoetz> elkbuntu: pppht :P
[03:00] <Seveas> elad`, remove them
[03:00] <elad`> But, if it works...?
[03:00] <teclis> Hello, is anyone experienced with ".xbindkeys"-Configuration?
[03:00] <SirKillalot> is there a possibility to get xchat run everytime I start gnome on the 4th desktop?
[03:00] <IdleOne> elad`>  sudo apt-get -f install ??
[03:00] <Seveas> seriously, updating core libraries from non-ubuntu repos is a recipe to get a reinstall
[03:00] <underlined> Hi, please i downloaded the ubuntu live cd from ubuntu's site but it doesn't complete booting process. it says Kernel CRC Error and hangs on. Any help please ?
[03:00] <elad`> Eh? Synaptic is removing all sorts of unrelated things all of a sudden. gnome-games, etc...
[03:00] <elkbuntu> elad`, you are still increasing your risk of breakage tenfold
[03:00] <elad`> open-office...
[03:00] <Seveas> elad`, see what I mean...
[03:00] <elad`> What the fuck?
[03:00] <kgoetz> underlined: check yoru cds md5sum
[03:00] <elad`> Seveas, yes.
[03:00] <Seveas> elad`, language.
[03:00] <IdleOne> elad`>  nm what I said Seveas  knows what he is saying
[03:01] <kgoetz> SirKillalot: i think it can, but i dont know how. i *think* it can....
[03:01] <Seveas> elad`, remove all the forcefully installed packages and reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[03:01] <underlined> kgoetz : how can i do this?
[03:01] <SirKillalot> hey guys, I had gnome and installed KDE, now I use gnome again but some icons in gnome are KDE style, taht really sucks!
[03:01] <SirKillalot> for example all prefereneces icons are that fucking kde tool
[03:01] <SirKillalot> I hate it
[03:02] <SirKillalot> is there a way to get normal gnome icons applied again?
[03:02] <kgoetz> underlined: whats your main OS?
[03:02] <IdleOne> SirKillalot>  lanaguage
[03:02] <IdleOne> SirKillalot>  sudo apt-get --purge remove kubuntu-desktop
[03:02] <underlined> windows xp and i have fedora core 4 on the second primary partition
[03:02] <kgoetz> SirKillalot: try reinstallin ubuntu-artwork
[03:02] <General_Error> would be it easier to install ubuntu first rather than working from live cd for this thing
[03:02] <General_Error> because when i try to startx, i just get a blank screen
[03:03] <kgoetz> underlined: in fedora you can run `md5sum /dev/cdrom`
[03:03] <kgoetz> in windows you need to download extra aps
[03:03] <IdleOne> General_Error>  yes it would
[03:03] <Celestianpower> Can anyone tell me what's going wrong and how tofix it here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9996
[03:03] <General_Error> ok then
[03:03] <General_Error> thanks
[03:03] <MotorCityMadMan> new ubuntu install: there is a hda3 and hda4 icon on the desk top: How do i open these icons for viewing ? When i try i get a error displaying folder

[03:03] <IdleOne> General_Error> /msg ubotu  dualboot if yor dualbooting
[03:03] <vook> General_Error, livecd will barely give you a taste honestly.  To get the real experience, you need to install it.
[03:03] <Seveas> MotorCityMadMan, put your /etc/fstab on the pastebin
[03:04] <General_Error> vook, i cant even boot into livecd
[03:04] <elad`> It's removing Synaptic itself now.
[03:04] <underlined> kgoetz : what it reported error in the file? i should download again ?
[03:04] <Seveas> elad`, stop the removal...
[03:04] <General_Error> all i get is xserver failing to start
[03:04] <elkbuntu> General_Error, are you using an ATI graphics card?
[03:04] <vook> General_Error, your ATI may well not be supported yet
[03:04] <General_Error> yes elkbuntu
[03:04] <g0dchild> hi , everyone- thanks for the assistance i've been getting here. one final question- i need kubuntu ASAP
[03:04] <Seveas> you'll end up withou anything installed
[03:04] <elad`> Never mind, I see I'll have to reinstall Ubuntu.
[03:04] <g0dchild> would it cause a problem if i upgrade to breezy after i install kubuntu-desktop?
[03:04] <elad`> Good night and good bye.
[03:05] <General_Error> btw i Have Sapphire ATi Radeon X800 GTO
[03:05] <kgoetz> underlined: reported an error?
[03:05] <elad`> Waiting for the OS to crash...
[03:05] <IdleOne> g0dchild>  I dont think so but dont quote me
[03:05] <chuckyp> kgoetz, ty worked like a champ
[03:05] <kgoetz> g0dchild: it wont matter, no
[03:05] <kalango> register
[03:05] <kgoetz> but you will need to download kubuntu-desktop twice
[03:05] <g0dchild> gotcha.
[03:06] <kgoetz> np chuckyp
[03:06] <Celestianpower> Nobody at all?
[03:06] <Pooronce> Hi,everybody..
[03:06] <underlined> kgoetz: i am on windows now, i ll reboot with fc
[03:06] <kgoetz> Celestianpower: is there a breezy deb?
[03:06] <Pooronce> I'm a newbie with ubuntu...
[03:06] <kgoetz> underlined: ok
[03:06] <elkbuntu> General_Error, if you do the actual install, and come up with the same problem you'll have alot more luck fixing it as it is likely the kernel module for ati out of date or missing
[03:06] <vook> General_Error, ATI isn't very friendly about releasing chipset specs and modules for linux.  Sad but true.  NVidia is good about it though.  Older ATI chipsets are only now starting to become fully supported.
[03:06] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  lemme look and see if I can help
[03:06] <recon00> How can I share my printer with other computers on my LAN?
[03:07] <Pooronce> And now I have a question here, Could anyone help me?
[03:07] <Celestianpower> kgoetz: Breezy deb?
[03:07] <General_Error> ok then
[03:07] <gnomefreak> oh opera
[03:07] <General_Error> im starting to install it now
[03:07] <jepler> Hi.  I'm trying to use kernel-wedge, but 'kernel-wedge gen-control' doesn't seem to generate a proper control file---the subsequent dpkg-buildpackage says there "must be at least one binary package part", and there isn't.
[03:07] <kgoetz> Celestianpower: an install package of whatever ubuntu yoru using
[03:07] <gnomefreak> ok Celestianpower there are a few things you need to install
[03:07] <jepler> Are there some obvious errors I should check for?
[03:07] <Pooronce> My mainbord is NF4 ,ECS, I can't install the RAID of SATA on it...
[03:07] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Oh I see
[03:07] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: And I need Synaptic or spt-get for those?
[03:07] <Celestianpower> *apt
[03:08] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: your repos fixed?
[03:08] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  sudo apt-get install xlib6g xlibs ??
[03:08] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: No
[03:08] <vook> General_Error, backup your data please, have a plan in case nothing works!
[03:08] <gnomefreak> :(
[03:08] <kgoetz> Pooronce: its probably software raid
[03:08] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Any way of doing it manually?
[03:08] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Yeah, that's broken ;)
[03:08] <MrRio> good afternoon
[03:08] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: you can open the repo with a web browser and dpkg -i all the debs you need
[03:08] <kgoetz> hi MrRio
[03:08] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Okay
[03:09] <Solatis> hello, question
[03:09] <IdleOne> hello
[03:09] <chuckyp> !ask
[03:09] <Solatis> my system recently crashed while running firefox, i had to reboot
[03:09] <Solatis> now, firefox says that another instance is still running when starting up
[03:09] <spanner3003> y when i run winecvs.sh do i get an error saying c compiler unable to compile c ecexutabel?
[03:09] <Solatis> while there isn't any instance running
[03:09] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: the 2 libs it listed you need and give me a sec on the other one you need im trying to recall the name of it
[03:09] <chuckyp> spanner3003, do you have build-essentials installed?
[03:09] <kgoetz> spanner3003: got build-essential installed?
[03:09] <Solatis> i removed the `lock` file from ~/.mozilla/firefox/<<id>>/lock
[03:10] <IdleOne> Solatis>  ps x and and then kill # for firefox
[03:10] <kgoetz> Solatis: sounds bad
[03:10] <kgoetz> lol chuckyp. snap
[03:10] <spanner3003> how do i get that?
[03:10] <firecracker2k6> hi guys, I am having some major probems with azureus, look here http://pastebin.com/596243 I have just upgraded to the most recent version of jave too but still the same problem, any help would be greatly apriciated.
[03:10] <Solatis> lmergen@solatis3:~$ ps aux | grep firefox
[03:10] <Solatis> lmergen   5322  0.0  0.0   3940   904 pts/1    R+   15:10   0:00 grep firefox
[03:10] <Solatis> lmergen@solatis3:~$
[03:10] <kgoetz> spanner3003: just install it with apt or synapict
[03:10] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: How do I get the other two?
[03:10] <chuckyp> !tell spanner3003 about compile
[03:11] <kgoetz> Solatis: killall firefox
[03:11] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Is there somewhere I can search for theM?
[03:11] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: you need to open the repo in browser i think they are in the main repo
[03:11] <Pooronce> kgoetz, yes , When I try to install SuSE on RAID, it says the raid are soft-raid... so I installed Ubuntu on the other IDE disk .... but now I don't know how to install the raid in the Ubuntu system to use it....
[03:11] <Solatis> kgoetz: i can't kill anything, there is no process (like i said)
[03:11] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: package.ubuntu.com
[03:11] <Solatis> firefox is _not_ running
[03:11] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  packages.ubuntu.com
[03:11] <gnomefreak> you should beable to download them right from there
[03:11] <spanner3003> so i just type apt-get install build-essentials?
[03:11] <Solatis> but it tells me there is another instance running when starting firefox
[03:11] <kgoetz> Pooronce: i havent set up raid, so i cant help you
[03:11] <chuckyp> spanner3003, yes
[03:11] <Solatis> and i /do/ have my lock file removed
[03:11] <wormee> hello
[03:11] <Solatis> so i have no idea
[03:11] <g0dchild> how do i get root access for changing sys-wide settings? do i have to add my normal user to some group?
[03:11] <IdleOne> Solatis>  killall firefox and see if it helps
[03:12] <Jemt> Greetz. I was wondering.. Will repositories (universal, multiverse) be ready for Dapper when it is released? I remember when Breezy was released. It took 2-3 months before they were online and I had no software at all to work with. I'd rather stick to Breezy for a few more months this time than repeating what happend last time.
[03:12] <kgoetz> Solatis: tried 'lsof |grep firefox' or similar?
[03:12] <Solatis> *sigh*
[03:12] <firecracker2k6> Solatis, the running proccess for firefox is firefox-bin
[03:12] <gnomefreak> IdleOne: what is that one thing people aways forget for opera
[03:12] <chuckyp> g0dchild, use sudo
[03:12] <IdleOne> g0dchild>  use sudo
[03:12] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: I'm http://packages.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ there, where do I go now?
[03:12] <chuckyp> !tell g0dchild about sudo
[03:12] <Pooronce> kgoetz,O.... Thank U anyway...
[03:12] <Seveas> Jemt, what are you talking about?
[03:12] <IdleOne> gnomefreak>  beats me dude I dont use opera
[03:12] <vook> when in doubt  # chown -R myuser.myuser /home/myuser
[03:12] <Solatis> firecracker2k6: yes that's why i grepped on 'firefox' and nothing returned
[03:12] <kgoetz> Jemt: i dont remember that
[03:12] <Seveas> for breezy universe and multiverse were released in the same time as main...
[03:12] <Seveas> same will be for dapper
[03:12] <firecracker2k6> so guys, any help for my question, its a java problem
[03:13] <firecracker2k6> http://pastebin.com/596243
[03:13] <Solatis> kgoetz: i'm trying to find out what the processes are that are returned... looks like they're all shells
[03:13] <Jemt> Seveas: They were? I remember that they didn't work - and I asked for help several times in here - no one could make them work
[03:13] <MrRio> Solatis: you may need to delete your session data
[03:13] <Celestianpower> IdleOne?
[03:13] <Solatis> kgoetz: yep
[03:13] <damian_> why wont this work ive tried everything it says invalid share name on bood after i just press enter to the password prompt because there isnt one
[03:13] <damian_> /192.168.1.6/HENDO	/smbfs		smbfs    defaults  0       0
[03:13] <damian_> /192.168.1.6/BACKUPS	/smbfs1		smbfs    defaults  0       0
[03:13] <Celestianpower> !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] <Solatis> MrRio: isn't that simply the 'lock' file ?
[03:13] <damian_> thats my fstab
[03:13] <MrRio> Solatis, ~/.mozilla/firefox/<random string of chars>
[03:14] <spanner3003> apt-get cannot find build-essentials
[03:14] <Seveas> damian_, that'll bever work...
[03:14] <Solatis> MrRio: ehrm, but that will also remove all my bookmarks etc etc right
[03:14] <Seveas> never*
[03:14] <Jemt> Seveas: Well, as long as they plan to repease the repos the same day they release Dapper, it's fine with me
[03:14] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: im not sure how to navagate through that :(
[03:14] <kgoetz> spanner3003: take of the s from the end
[03:14] <IdleOne> Celestianpower> opera is probably not in the Ubuntu repositories, but you can always download the latest Opera .deb package from http://www.opera.com/download/ and then see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser
[03:14] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: :(
[03:14] <chuckyp> !tell spanner3003 about build-essential
[03:14] <kgoetz> damian_: you need a space
[03:14] <Stiopa> hello
[03:14] <spanner3003> oh ok thank you
[03:14] <chuckyp> spanner3003, lose the s
[03:14] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: No - I can't use apt-get
[03:14] <elkbuntu> opera actually has a repo and it is trustworthy
[03:14] <Celestianpower> I did that
[03:14] <MrRio> Solatis: rename it, then see if you can copy your bookmarks back in afterwards maybe
[03:14] <damian_> seveas please explain
[03:14] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: go to opera.com and download the deb
[03:15] <damian_> kgoetz please explain
[03:15] <Celestianpower> I need to manually install stuff
[03:15] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: I did and I got that error I showed you
[03:15] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: after downloading it use sudo dpkg -i
[03:15] <Seveas> damian_, those fstab entries don't specify a samba location
[03:15] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  reinstall and that should fix all your apt-get problems...cant really help you if you dont have the tools you need to fix the problem :/
[03:15] <GnarusLeo> firecracker2k6, that happened to me to ... I just got another package of azureus
[03:15] <Stiopa> on live-cd (I can't recall 4.10 or 5.04) there was a tool to generate pdf in windows, can sombody tell me the name of it?
[03:15] <Solatis> MrRio: ok, i just moved that entire directory to ~/temp/, it still tells me that
[03:15] <Seveas> damian_, you can try using http://ubuntulinux.nl/files/addsamba
[03:15] <Seveas> it's a script to add samba shares to /etc/fstab
[03:16] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Yes, I got that error, remember...
[03:16] <firecracker2k6> GnarusLeo, what version are you using?
[03:16] <damian_> thanks been stuck on this one for ages
[03:16] <elkbuntu> Stiopa, openoffice can generate .pdfs
[03:16] <firecracker2k6> GnarusLeo, it happend after an upgrade it keeps bagering me to do
[03:16] <GnarusLeo> firecracker2k6, same her .. give me a sec
[03:16] <MrRio> Solatis: strange, and remove [Profile0]  section from profiles.ini
[03:17] <Stiopa> elkbuntu, Win32 version too?
[03:17] <firecracker2k6> GnarusLeo, ok thanks
[03:17] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  looks like a rock and a hard place
[03:17] <elkbuntu> Stiopa, yes
[03:17] <MrRio> Solatis, what caused the crash? did you have any extensions running?
[03:17] <Stiopa> ok, thanks :-)
[03:17] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Yeas
[03:17] <firecracker2k6> GnarusLeo, dont want to use the crappy gnome one, nothing compaires to azureus
[03:17] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: How do I reinstall without the CD any more?
[03:17] <Solatis> MrRio: no none at all - my system just hang and i rebooted
[03:17] <GnarusLeo> firecracker2k6, 2.4.0.0 ...
[03:17] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  reinstall is a pain I know but you need a decent base system to work with so you may as well start over fresh
[03:17] <Solatis> holdon i'll put up a screenshot to display my problem
[03:17] <Tomasso> hello, i dont know why my windows installation got corrupted it doesnt start anymore, and i have all my info in one of the partitions. I have two sata hard disks in RAID for performance mode (configured by hard),  and now i booted from an ubuntu live cd, i would like to know if there is any posibility to mount my partitions..
[03:18] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  download and burn the iso
[03:18] <GnarusLeo> firecracker2k6, and I removed the one from apt-get, and got the tar ball from azurues homepage ...
[03:18] <GnarusLeo> easy setup
[03:18] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Oh
[03:18] <Celestianpower> I don't have a CD
[03:18] <Solatis> http://www.solatis.com/firefox.png
[03:18] <Celestianpower> :'(
[03:18] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  www.ubuntu.com   if you cant have a freind do it for you
[03:18] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Grrr
[03:18] <firecracker2k6> GnarusLeo, I will try that now then
[03:18] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  best I can do for you sorry
[03:18] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: So I need a CD
[03:18] <GnarusLeo> firecracker2k6, im sure it'll work. And agreed, nothing beats azureus (except in memory leackage) :)
[03:19] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  yeah
[03:19] <Celestianpower> Oh for Pete's sake
[03:19] <MrRio> Solatis: wow, very loong display
[03:19] <firecracker2k6> GnarusLeo,  lol
[03:19] <Solatis> MrRio: haha yeah i like it that way... good for coding, lots of lines of code in 1 view :)
[03:19] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  and when you get a new install cd KEEP IT! you may need it again in the furtur
[03:20] <IdleOne> future*
[03:20] <Solatis> MrRio: aaahhh great, removing [profile0]  helped!
[03:20] <Solatis> MrRio: thanks a lot!
[03:20] <MrRio> Solatis, no probs
[03:20] <MrRio> shame about you bookmarks tho
[03:20] <Pooronce> Now in Shipit, 5.10 or 6.04?
[03:20] <Solatis> nahh i'll just replace the new profile data with the old profile data
[03:20] <Solatis> let's see what happends :)
[03:20] <IdleOne> Pooronce> 5.10
[03:20] <wormee> do you think 'Failed to read scan data : Resource temporarily unavailable' may be a normal response from 'iwlist scan'?
[03:21] <MrRio> Solatis, it should make a fresh profile, so try copying bookmarks.html
[03:21] <Grout58> any way we can use the upgrade feature in apt-get to get the new flight?
[03:21] <IdleOne> !tell Grout58  about flight4
[03:21] <kimo> I downloaded flight4 yesterday, now flight5 is out!!! Do I really have to re-download ?/
[03:21] <IdleOne> kimo>  if you want to
[03:21] <Solatis> MrRio: i just copied the entire profile directory, it worked, i even have all my cookies, history and remembered passwords :)
[03:22] <IdleOne> !tell Grout58  about flight5
[03:22] <firecracker2k6> GnarusLeo, Thanks mate, working now
[03:22] <kimo> I mean can I use flight4, & somehow upgrade it ?
[03:22] <GnarusLeo> firecracker2k6, np
[03:22] <Pooronce> Idleone: O... I'll wait 4 the next edition..
[03:22] <Pygi> kimo: yes, normal updates ;)
[03:22] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Well, I'm not allowed to reinstall
[03:22] <spanner3003> !flight5
[03:22] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, spanner3003
[03:22] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  why not?
[03:22] <Pygi> spanner: flight5 not yet ready...
[03:22] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Because we might not be able to get the internet back
[03:23] <spanner3003> what is it?
[03:23] <Celestianpower> We had a huge problem getting it last time
[03:23] <Pygi> spanner: a new release from beta series of dapper
[03:23] <kgoetz> gl all
[03:23] <Celestianpower> :'(
[03:23] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  sorry to hear
[03:23] <Pooronce> restart ... to Suse ..
[03:23] <GnarusLeo> What is flight anyways?
[03:23] <spanner3003> oh ok i have 5.10
[03:23] <kimo> Hope flight5 will have my Yukon (sk98lin) lan card working :)
[03:23] <Celestianpower> And my parents don't want to risk it
[03:23] <Celestianpower> I hate my parents sometimes
[03:24] <Pygi> Gnarus: a release ? ;)
[03:24] <chuckyp> kimo, They update hal in flight5

[03:24] <spanner3003> make: *** [tsx11/libwine_tsx11.so]  Error 2
[03:24] <Celestianpower> Are we sure there's nothing we can do
[03:24] <Celestianpower> ?
[03:24] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, a testing of the next realease of ubuntu called "dapper drake"
[03:25] <Celestianpower> I just want Synaptic to work
[03:25] <Celestianpower> an't we just reinstall Synaptic?
[03:25] <Celestianpower> *C
[03:25] <chuckyp> spanner3003, try running the script as sudo wincvs.sh
[03:25] <spanner3003> i did :)
[03:25] <Pygi> chuckyp: winecvs.sh*
[03:25] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, whats wrong now?
[03:25] <chuckyp> spanner3003, I dunno ask wine.
[03:25] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Same problem
[03:25] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, same probelm as what?
[03:26] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  not without the cd or apt-get
[03:26] <chuckyp> spanner3003, #winehq
[03:26] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: If I got the CD, would it be possible
[03:26] <Celestianpower> ?
[03:26] <Pygi> celestian: yup, it would...
[03:26] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Sorry, the again threw me
[03:26] <spanner3003> ok
[03:26] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: reinstalling synaptic wont help
[03:26] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Why not?
[03:26] <gnomefreak> reinstalling ubuntu might help
[03:26] <Pygi> gnomefreak: hi hi
[03:26] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, what are you trying to do?
[03:26] <gnomefreak> hi Pygi
[03:26] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Get Synaptic working
[03:26] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  if you get the cd you will reinstall ( best option ) and then we can help you with your internet connection
[03:27] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, what is wrong with it now?
[03:27] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: your problem isnt synaptic alone issue i dont htink
[03:27] <Pygi> gnomefreak: gah, do not recommend reinstalling...nothing can be that badly broken...
[03:27] <gnomefreak> Pygi: 3 days on same issue
[03:27] <gnomefreak> or 4
[03:27] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: No, because I won't be able to talk to you without internet will I?
[03:27] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, what problem are you having with synaptic.
[03:27] <Pygi> gnomefreak: what's the issue?
[03:27] <IdleOne> Pygi>  he lost synaptic and doesnt have apt-get
[03:27] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: he cant use apt or synaptic
[03:27] <chuckyp> lol
[03:28] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: No apt-get or Synaptic
[03:28] <gnomefreak> dns could still be the issue
[03:28] <Pygi> gnomefreak, idle: and how did he do that? removed both?
[03:28] <GnarusLeo> How does one loose synaptic and apt-get?
[03:28] <GnarusLeo> lol
[03:28] <Celestianpower> :'(
[03:28] <gnomefreak> how did he do what break it?
[03:28] <Pygi> gnomefreak, idle: perhaps he could just download packages somewhere, and use dpkg -i to unpack it?
[03:28] <IdleOne> gnomefreak>  I suspect the internet issues is just a question of enabling eth0 in Networking
[03:29] <GnarusLeo> ifconfig eth0 up?
[03:29] <zapada> will dapper have winmodem support?
[03:29] <gnomefreak> hell his resolv.conf was empty but we fixed that
[03:29] <Pygi> zapada: no, it won't...
[03:29] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Well, my parents point blank will not let me reinstall
[03:29] <IdleOne> Pygi>  from what I gathered his system is pretty much borked
[03:29] <gnomefreak> zapada: ubuntu will never have winmodem support
[03:29] <zapada> NOoO! :(
[03:29] <Pygi> celestian: do you have your eth0 as default gateway in network config??
[03:30] <Celestianpower> Pygi: The internet is working now
[03:30] <gnomefreak> Pygi: its not resolving right
[03:30] <GnarusLeo> cant you guys take Celestianpower's problem to +l?
[03:30] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, how did you cause this in the first place?  What where you trying to do?
[03:30] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, if its a dapper issue
[03:30] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: have you tried pinging an ipaddress?
[03:30] <Pygi> celestian: just choose a good DNS....
[03:31] <Pygi> gnomefreak: I believe DNS might be problem...
[03:31] <gnomefreak> GnarusLeo: we could if he was using dapper
[03:31] <gnomefreak> Pygi: got that far
[03:31] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  after reinstall ( if parents allow it ) you will go to System > Administration > Networking and enable eth0 and that should have you online
[03:31] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Well, my friend was trying to get my Floppy working so he messed about with the reso file
[03:31] <Celestianpower> Since then, the thing is broken
[03:31] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: i think you need to tell your friend not to touch it again
[03:31] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: No, point blank they will not allow it
[03:31] <gnomefreak> lol
[03:32] <General_Error> #
[03:32] <General_Error> Install the kernel drivers. These drivers should be installed by default, but it's better to make sure they are installed. You need the package linux-$arch, where you replace $arch by the CPU architecture for the machine. This is 386 for Intel Pentium, 686 for Celeron, Pentium Pro, Pentium II, and Pentium III, 686-smp for Pentium 4, or k7 or k7-smp for AMD athlon. On 64-bit systems, this may be amd64-generic, amd64-k8, amd64-k8-smp,
[03:32] <General_Error> sudo apt-get install linux-686
[03:32] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, ?  well what I would try is download a deb for apt-get and dpkg -i the .deb and then use apt-get to install the rest i.e. synaptic.

[03:34] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Yes
[03:34] <IdleOne> !tell Jonnings about java
[03:34] <Pygi> dorto: should do...to clean packages just use apt-get clean
[03:34] <gean> hi all !
[03:35] <Pygi> Jonnings: yup...
[03:35] <General_Error> because when i type sudo apt-get install amd64-generic, i get "Coudnt find package..."
[03:35] <gnomefreak> brb
[03:35] <IdleOne> gnomefreak>  he said it up there. his friend tried to fix something and broke atleast 2 other main things heh

[03:36] <General_Error> kk :)
[03:37] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  do sudo apt-get update and tell me what error that returns
[03:37] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, why was this guy editing resolv.conf to fix your floppy?
[03:37] <dorto> Pygi: then, can i give this to my friend also, who is using ubuntu since few months? he doesn't have to download what i had downloaded?
[03:37] <chuckyp> IdleOne, probably nothing.
[03:37] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Because it said to on the forums
[03:37] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Hang on - it's on pastebin
[03:37] <Celestianpower> 9978 I think
[03:37] <IdleOne> chuckyp>  if his sources.list is messed it should return an error
[03:37] <Pygi> dorto: most probably...
[03:38] <hullmmx> General_Error, Can I use voip in ubuntu?

[03:40] <chuckyp> cjavier, uk just did dist-upgrade on dapper worked fine.
[03:40] <chuckyp> cjavier, they non us ones i.e. archive.blah inestead of us.archive.blah
[03:40] <cjavier> chuckyp, I mean a local repository made by debmirror
[03:40] <gnomefreak> IdleOne: yeah well it was a thought that maybe it would reset dns
[03:41] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  I dont know what all that is but those are not the proper repos
[03:41] <gnomefreak> IdleOne: yes they are
[03:41] <gnomefreak> he has my breezy repos
[03:41] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, your sources.list is totally f'd
[03:41] <IdleOne> gnomefreak>  oh ok lol
[03:41] <Celestianpower> Well, cwillu told me to replace archive.thingy with the IP
[03:41] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, ahh your just using iip
[03:41] <gnomefreak> his sources.list isnt the issue that i know
[03:41] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, oh because the resolv issue.
[03:42] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: yeah
[03:42] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, following you know.
[03:42] <Pygi> about VOIP hullmmx, can't you use Skype? ;)
[03:42] <Celestianpower> Sorry for causing so much trouble
[03:42] <General_Error> Ok, this command: sudo apt-get install linux-686, what would i type for amd64 generic?
[03:42] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  this is what we live for :)
[03:42] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: lol
[03:42] <spanner3003> where do i find the xdev packs?
[03:42] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, so internet is not working on this box then?
[03:42] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: we are here to help and one of these days it will hit us lol
[03:43] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: I'm talking to you on it right now and surfing on FF
[03:43] <hullmmx> Pygi,yes,I can
[03:43] <Pygi> General_Error: cache search doesn't show any clue of that package on that kernel
[03:43] <Pygi> general_error: do you have a 64bit ubuntu installed?
[03:43] <General_Error> no
[03:43] <Pygi> hullmmx: so, whats the prob? ;)
[03:43] <Celestianpower> On this machibe, Internet does work
[03:43] <Pygi> general: you need to install it ;)
[03:43] <gnomefreak> he can do everything but use synaptic and apt-get  they are not resolving right
[03:43] <Pygi> install the 64 bit one
[03:43] <hullmmx> Pygi,but it is all for free, and what about the paying Voip using telephone?
[03:43] <General_Error> so does that mean i gotta download it again?!
[03:43] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, is that pastebin new or is that from before?
[03:44] <spanner3003> where do i find the x development packages?
[03:44] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Which?
[03:44] <Celestianpower> 10000 is new
[03:44] <IdleOne> gnomefreak>  chuckyp  things we know : he has internet, sources.list is good, synaptic and apt-get not working and someone tried to fix his floppy
[03:44] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, the pastebin of the apt-get update that has all the 404 errors.
[03:44] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: New
[03:44] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, Okay and the computer that you got those errors on has internet?
[03:44] <dorto> can i just restore the /var/cache/apt/archives/ in my new ubuntu? it seems to have all the downloaded .deb packages
[03:44] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Yes
[03:44] <GnarusLeo> 404 just means hes not connected
[03:45] <Pygi> general_error: searches...
[03:45] <IdleOne> GnarusLeo> 404 means he cant connect not that he is connected
[03:45] <GnarusLeo> IdleOne, thats what I said ..
[03:45] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, well try ping 82.211.81.151
[03:45] <IdleOne> s/is/isnt
[03:45] <yannux> hye everybody
[03:45] <GnarusLeo> thing pinging google is more effective before trying to update apt-get
[03:46] <GnarusLeo> think*
[03:46] <spanner3003> or how would i use apt-get to download the x development packages?
[03:46] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: It pings perfectly
[03:46] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: did he change your host name?
[03:46] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Where?
[03:46] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, wtf,  try to wget a file from somewhere.
[03:46] <spanner3003> !x development packages
[03:46] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, spanner3003
[03:46] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: in system>admin>network
[03:46] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: wget should work its using the browser
[03:47] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: I don't think so - I might be wrong
[03:47] <spanner3003> !x development
[03:47] <ubotu> spanner3003: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:47] <devlin-7> is there anything like control panel in Ubuntu? I need to find somewhere to tell Ubuntu what monitor I have..
[03:47] <Pygi> general_error: I believe so...64 bit kernels cannot be found in repos...
[03:47] <IdleOne> spanner3003>  /msg ubotu  serachterm
[03:47] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, well apt-get update is just trying to receive on port 80 and he's getting errors so he would get an error wget'ng a file on port 80
[03:47] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, or html etc...
[03:47] <Pygi> devlin: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg should do it ;)
[03:47] <Celestianpower> wget that IP works fine
[03:47] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: go there and see if thats the name you set up during install also check to see if there is a domain name entered in same area
[03:47] <General_Error> damn ok
[03:47] <devlin-7> ty :)
[03:48] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, yeah i'm thinking hostname would cause the confusion or something is goofy with his network.
[03:48] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: port 80 is internet connection port if it wasnt working he would have 0 internet
[03:48] <Pygi> general: you could ask in -devel tho, perphaps they know somethin' that I don't ;)
[03:48] <General_Error> lol ok
[03:48] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, I can't even tell if he has internet because he is confused as to which box he is on.
[03:48] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: I didn't install and there's no domain name
[03:48] <Pygi> chucky: hehe ;)
[03:48] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: the only reason that hit me was because we had a week were people were changing host names and than apt wouldnt work
[03:48] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, whats the hostname.
[03:49] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: celestian
[03:49] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: hes on the box with the issues
[03:49] <gnomefreak> and he can surf
[03:49] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, makes sense if it was changed improperly but then even wget wouldn't work.
[03:49] <gnomefreak> good point wget wouldnt work
[03:50] <Pygi> general_error: 64bit systems use other repos, so ;)
[03:50] <General_Error> ok
[03:50] <IdleOne> Celestianpower>  good luck .. gnomefreak  and chuckyp  will get you going and if they cant they will die trying hehe
[03:50] <IdleOne> have a good day all
[03:50] <Celestianpower> IdleOne: Thanks anyway
[03:50] <Pygi> general_error: you could try to manually fetch it, but not recommended...rather do a whole install of 64bit system
[03:50] <Celestianpower> Goodnight
[03:50] <gnomefreak> lol IdleOne bailing on us
[03:50] <General_Error> pygi, all im trying to do is get xserver to not fail when it loads lol

[03:53] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, hwo are you getting an ip on this box?   is it dhcp?  or are you specifying one?
[03:53] <NegativeSpace> Pygi Thanks, these look really useful.
[03:53] <yannux> Err http://packages.dotdeb.org stable/all Packages
[03:53] <yannux>   500 ( Not implemented  )
[03:53] <Pygi> yannux: #ubuntu+1
[03:53] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: DHCP I think but I'm not sure
[03:53] <Pygi> negativespace: yw, hope it helps ;)
[03:53] <Pygi> yannux: lol, do not use random repos
[03:53] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: yeah but what to fix? we got his resolv.conf set up with an ip
[03:53] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, well how is it connected to the net?  i.e. pc > router > dsl modem etc....
[03:53] <yannux> Pygi: thanks
[03:53] <spanner3003> some one pease help how do i install the  x development packages with apt-get?
[03:53] <Celestianpower> PC > Modem/router > Internet
[03:54] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: and your sure thats your routers ip address in the resolv.conf?
[03:54] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, doesn't matter if he is getting dhcp resolv.conf will get changed on connect.
[03:54] <Pygi> yannux: yw
[03:54] <Pygi> gnomefreak: hosts file perhaps??

[03:55] <Healot> Evolution? does evolution does that?
[03:55] <gnomefreak> spanner3003: apt-cache search X should list the -dev files than just apt-get install whatever files you nee
[03:55] <gnomefreak> d
[03:55] <spanner3003> couse i would like to game
[03:56] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, sudo ifdown eth0
[03:56] <Healot> "libx11-dev", spanner3003, apt-get or aptitude should download the rest for you
[03:56] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, then sudo ifup eth0

[03:58] <Icarus> How would I go about configuring a printer?
[03:59] <ALcHOLiC> posso chiedere aiutoi?
[03:59] <gopi> Hi I installed Zapping TV Viewer .... I am hearing audio but no video
[03:59] <ALcHOLiC> the
[04:00] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, okay your dhcp is jacked.
[04:00] <gopi> I can Up or Down the channels but audio alone is changing but cant see video
[04:00] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, well should say your dns servers are messed up.
[04:00] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: I have to go out now
[04:00] <Celestianpower> I'll be back on later
[04:01] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, okay thats all you need to fix
[04:01] <Celestianpower> Bye!
[04:01] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, is get the proper dns ip's then all should be better
[04:01] <recon00> Whenever I log into my computer, this "Migrated Old Desktop" keeps on coming up. How can I get rid of it?
[04:01] <chuckyp> bye
[04:01] <goestin> cheers
[04:01] <GnarusLeo> si hi to your parents for me Celestianpower :)
[04:01] <gopi> anyone can help me please ?
[04:01] <chuckyp> gopi, with waht?
[04:01] <chuckyp> !tell gopi about ask
[04:01] <gopi> Zapping TV viewer
[04:02] <goestin> recon00, , you mean an old Desktop you are not using anymore?
[04:03] <recon00> goestin: The desktop doesn't seem to have changed, although the notice says so along with a link.
[04:03] <gnomefreak> he has a different router ip set iirc the last nuber wasnt a 3
[04:03] <gopi> chuckyp: any idea ?
[04:03] <Micksa> ouchie
[04:03] <Micksa> quick question
[04:03] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, no his ip is .3 handed out by his router at .1 but his dns servers are totally messed up hense the resolving names problem.
[04:03] <Icarus> If I have a laptop that is connected to a wireless router and a printer that has a wireless function on it, how would I connect the printer to the laptop?
[04:03] <Micksa> I've rendered a dapper installation unbootable by installing more kernels etc than will fit in my /boot part
[04:03] <Micksa> I need to rebuild at least one initramfs
[04:04] <chuckyp> gopi, I can't help you if you don't tell me the problem you are having.
[04:04] <Micksa> what's the easiest way to do that?
[04:04] <Icarus> on ubuntu  obviously.
[04:04] <Healot> dapper = #ubuntu+1
[04:04] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: how do we fix it (so i know if your not here)
[04:04] <Micksa> dammit, I knew I shouldn't have mentioned dapper :P
[04:04] <Micksa> well pretend I'm using breezy then
[04:05] <gopi> chuckyp: I said it at first itself.... Please scroll back and see
[04:05] <gnomefreak> Micksa: dapper has not been released yet so we dont support it in here
[04:05] <Micksa> cos I'm sure the solution is the same
[04:05] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, I don't know what was changed to do it.  But most likely he would need to configure that router so that it does dhcp or he needs to get the dns server ip's out of his windows boot.  Because if the router isn't handing them out then he needs to specify them.
[04:05] <Micksa> and the problem would have happened anyway if it was breezy
[04:05] <Pygi> who needs support with dapper, please go to #ubuntu+1 ....thanks
[04:05] <Healot> yes... but somehow it's different
[04:05] <rukuartic> Micksa: What you need to say is, Windows is so much better because I can install more kernels in /boot. Then you get lots a people telling you how to do it in linux.
[04:05] <Pygi> !enter
[04:05] <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!
[04:05] <dan_> ubuntu - mounting windows partisons
[04:05] <Micksa> haha
[04:06] <Micksa> DON'T TEMPT ME

[04:08] <goestin> !tell goestin ask
[04:08] <rukuartic> confrey: Oh, there's just a character famous for walking in and saying "Hi everybody!" and then everyone responds "Hi Dr. Nick!"
[04:08] <gopi> chuckyp: :)
[04:08] <Healot> gopi, is it download off the ubuntu's official repos?
[04:08] <aroticoz> When ubuntu is installed does it include a ftp client with it or do I have to get one myself ?
[04:08] <gopi> Healot: no
[04:08] <chuckyp> gopi, what is zapper tv some type of tv viewing for capture card?  If so what type of card do you have?
[04:08] <Viper5703> this is an 802.11 PCI card, and I wondering about 5.10 support
[04:08] <rukuartic> aroticoz: Course. run ftp in console :)
[04:08] <aroticoz> thanks
[04:08] <elkbuntu> aroticoz, it does in nautilus, but i recommend gftp instead
[04:09] <analfabeta_> hi, why debian system based no accept my gateway config?
[04:09] <dan_> ubotu tell dan_ about mounting windows partisons
[04:09] <Viper5703> right now Im in XP, and its identified as a Dell card, but as long as the drivers are for Broadcom's 43xx chipset it will work
[04:09] <aroticoz> ok... recommend me a graphical ftp client :)
[04:09] <General_Error> right, ive done everything now, once X loads up i just get a black screen
[04:09] <chuckyp> gopi, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  and install the codecs.  thats all

[04:11] <goestin> Anyone of you guys/girls has ever messed around with the spca50x webcam driver in breezy?
[04:11] <General_Error> no i havnt, how do i do that, ive tried the fglrx
[04:11] <confrey> is here anybody from swiss?
[04:11] <rukuartic> confrey: Well... heh. It sounds really dumb unless you watch the show a buncha times
[04:11] <dan_> ubotu tell dan_ about mounting windows partitions
[04:11] <Viper5703> so no takers?
[04:12] <chuckyp> General_Error, well to get in x you can try changing the xorg.conf to vesa and boot that way then use synaptic to install the drivers.
[04:12] <rukuartic> dan_: Have you tried looking around https://wiki.ubuntu.com ?
[04:12] <dorto> sorry mistyped...
[04:12] <General_Error> crap, i cant get into console now, it just goes black screen
[04:12] <dorto> the error is like this: W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages

[04:12] <urox> hi, i'm trying to get vmware's shared folder feature to work on ubuntu 5.10, anybody got any tips on hwo to get it to work ?
[04:13] <chuckyp> General_Error, you can't ctrl+alt+F2 or F1 through F6?
[04:13] <General_Error> one sec
[04:13] <grout58> hey i just reinstalled ubuntu and relized it didnt ask me for a root password, whats the deal? how do i log as root?
[04:13] <dan_> rukuartic - i have done it before but i had to reformat it and now so it wont let me open the mounted patitions as they are not there, so i just need that script thing so i can remount them if that makes sense.
[04:13] <rukuartic> grout58: Ubuntu doesn't have root users... You log in as the username you typed in, the "root" password is the same on e you typed in for yours
[04:14] <chuckyp> dan_, what type of partitions windows partitions? and what version of windows?
[04:14] <Xenguy> !tell grout58 about root
[04:14] <Icarus> how would i configure a printer on ubuntu?
[04:14] <rukuartic> Xenguy: Fine, steal the only thing I can help people with. T_T
[04:14] <Viper5703> oh well I'll look other places, thanks guys...
[04:14] <Xenguy> rukuartic: heheh
[04:14] <chuckyp> Viper5703, hold on so many people asking
[04:14] <urox> anybody using vmware here?
[04:14] <Viper5703> Urox I am
[04:14] <dan_> chuckyp - Windows XP and NFTS or whatever it is
[04:14] <spanner3003> yes
[04:14] <General_Error> right i got console now
[04:15] <urox> Viper5703, how do i use shared folders?
[04:15] <General_Error> just booted into recovery mode
[04:15] <dorto> because of sudo, i can't start commands in background. i have to run them, give the password and then send them to background(Ctrl-Z). is there a simpler way?
[04:15] <gioeleb> hi
[04:15] <Viper5703> you need to Install the operating system of choice and then install VMWare Tools
[04:15] <chuckyp> !tell dan_  about ntfs
[04:15] <goestin> grout58, indeed that is normal for ubuntu, but if you say: sudo bash
[04:15] <Xenguy> Viper5703: is that the free-as-in-beer product of theirs I read about recently?
[04:15] <goestin> and after that: passwd
[04:15] <Viper5703> What?
[04:15] <urox> Viper5703, how do i get vmware tools to run on ubuntu 5.10 as guest os ?
[04:15] <chuckyp> Viper5703, What do you want to know if the card will work in ubuntu?
[04:15] <Viper5703> I dont know
[04:15] <goestin> you can enter a password and then you can log in as root
[04:15] <dan_> chuckyp - thanks thats what i wanted
[04:15] <Viper5703> yeah chuckyp
[04:15] <funkyHat> dorto, use gksudo
[04:16] <rukuartic> grout58: or you can do sudo su
[04:16] <Viper5703> as soon as I get Ubuntu installed in VMware urox Ill tinker with it
[04:16] <chuckyp> Viper5703, search the forums if native support isn't there you could always getting working with ndiswrapper.  especially the broadcomm cards.
[04:16] <Xenguy> Viper5703: they recently made one of their products freely available (closed source, but no cost)
[04:16] <dorto> k
[04:16] <funkyHat> rukuartic, grout58, you shouldn't use sudo su, you should use sudo -i instead
[04:16] <Viper5703> Xenguy what comapny?
[04:16] <rukuartic> funkyHat: Why?
[04:16] <Xenguy> Viper5703: vmware
[04:16] <goestin> urox you cannot install ubuntu in vmware?
[04:16] <Viper5703> Hmm ok
[04:16] <Viper5703> Ill look at it
[04:16] <rukuartic> funkyHat: Or should I say, whats the difference :P
[04:16] <urox> goestin, i installed, but i dont have the shared folders feature
[04:16] <Viper5703> goestin hes runnig VMware in windows
[04:17] <dorto> can i ask questions related to dapper?
[04:17] <Healot> su is dangerous.. use it at your own risks :)
[04:17] <chuckyp> WTH is urox?
[04:17] <Xenguy> Viper5703: sure.  Just wondered if that is what you were using already
[04:17] <chuckyp> dorto, should be asked in #ubutnu+1
[04:17] <goestin> ok
[04:17] <Viper5703> no Im using VMWare 5.x
[04:17] <Viper5703> VMWare Workstation 5.5
[04:17] <funkyHat> rukuartic, the actual reason has completely slipped my mind :/. There is a good reason though...
[04:17] <Healot> 5.5 to be exact. Viper5703 ?
[04:17] <NegativeSpace> How can I find out which Linux kernel I'm running?
[04:17] <urox> chuckyp, what ?
[04:17] <Viper5703> Whats up healot?
[04:17] <mgedmin> NegativeSpace: uname -a
[04:17] <dorto> chuckyp: is that really a channel? ubuntu+1?
[04:17] <Frogzoo> NegativeSpace: uname -a
[04:17] <funkyHat> dorto, yes
[04:17] <funkyHat> It's really a channel ;)
[04:17] <chuckyp> dorto, yes +one not L
[04:18] <Healot> Viper5703, try the Live CD... that would better to try ubuntu before real install
[04:18] <NegativeSpace> Cheers guys.
[04:18] <urox> dorto, try and you will see
[04:18] <Viper5703> yeah good idea. LOL
[04:18] <dorto> oh my God! i thought you are joking :)
[04:18] <spanner3003> no it's uname -r
[04:18] <goestin> urox, you have installed the vmware tools?
[04:18] <Viper5703> well Id be dual booting with XP SP2
[04:18] <dorto> its actually there!!
[04:18] <chuckyp> dorto, no thats dapper related
[04:18] <urox> goestin, nop
[04:18] <Viper5703> goestin hes wondering if it can be done in 5.10
[04:18] <urox> goestin, or maybe yes, i dont remember, how do i check ?
[04:18] <dorto> yeh, thx for the info
[04:18] <urox> it doesnt complaint that i dont have it installed
[04:18] <grout58> how do i mount a ntfs drive?
[04:18] <Frogzoo> !ntfs
[04:18] <ubotu> ntfs is, like, the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[04:19] <chuckyp> !tell grout58 about ntfs
[04:19] <grout58> i dont see it though
[04:19] <chuckyp> grout58, follow the wiki
[04:19] <Viper5703> urox you might need a Win32 system to install VMware Tools
[04:19] <goestin> urox, i thought you can check it by the options tab..... but i have only worked with vmware 4.5 i think so i'm not sure aboiut this....
[04:19] <Healot> Viper5703, running live CD will tell, pretty much like a fresh install, without the hassle
[04:19] <urox> Viper5703, win32 system ?
[04:20] <Viper5703> OK Healot thanks
[04:20] <Viper5703> yeah Windows
[04:20] <Viper5703> uro win32 is any windows type system
[04:20] <urox> so no easy way ?
[04:20] <Viper5703> I dont think so
[04:20] <urox> Viper5703, i'm using ubuntu as guest os, and windows as host os
[04:20] <General_Error> YES
[04:20] <General_Error> OH
[04:20] <General_Error> YES
[04:20] <General_Error> :D
[04:20] <Viper5703> Right as I am. LOL
[04:20] <General_Error> ty to the person who said
[04:20] <Healot> urox, tried the live CD yet?
[04:20] <General_Error> vESA
[04:20] <Viper5703> But you might need Windows as host OS
[04:20] <urox> what for ?
[04:20] <Frogzoo> urox: you can do that, but.... why?
[04:20] <chuckyp> General_Error, vesa worked I take it?
[04:21] <urox> because i need both
[04:21] <General_Error> chuckyp
[04:21] <urox> XP and ubuntu
[04:21] <urox> and i dont have a comp to spare
[04:21] <urox> what is this stupid questions
[04:21] <Viper5703> Dual boot
[04:21] <General_Error> yes
[04:21] <urox> i'm trying to get help to solve an issue
[04:21] <General_Error> thk you!
[04:21] <chuckyp> urox, I'm running dual boot.
[04:21] <Viper5703> Hey Urox
[04:21] <urox> Viper5703, i need them at SAME TIME
[04:21] <urox> DAMN
[04:21] <General_Error> such a simple answer
[04:21] <Frogzoo> urox: well, you'd be much better off with ubuntu as host but that's by the by
[04:21] <urox> dual boot isnt sufficient
[04:21] <urox> since i need at the same time
[04:21] <Healot> no, with the live CD you can try before really installing ubuntu on disk. much safer faster way to try
[04:21] <jonolson> urox, You are confusing people.  Do you mean running both of the OS's at the *same* time, or just having both there to use?
[04:21] <chuckyp> General_Error, now you can install the ati drivers and all will be well.  if it blows out again just switch back to vesa
[04:21] <urox> yeah, welp i use ubuntu only for web/apache development
[04:21] <Viper5703> Urox you have any type of IM?
[04:21] <urox> and everything else in windows
[04:21] <goestin> urox, maybe a stupid idea but, can't you share a folder with samba and mount it in window
[04:21] <goestin> windows
[04:21] <chuckyp> urox, just daul boot.
[04:21] <Pygi> General_error: works now?
[04:22] <elkbuntu> urox, dual boot
[04:22] <urox> situation: using ubuntu as guest os in vmware, problem: shared folders dont work
[04:22] <goestin> with "map a network drive" ?
[04:22] <General_Error> yah
[04:22] <urox> how do i fix this ?
[04:22] <General_Error> i think
[04:22] <General_Error> that was in recovery mode
[04:22] <chuckyp> urox, you can see your nix partition in windows also if thats what you are looking for.
[04:22] <General_Error> ima try in normal now
[04:22] <urox> Viper5703, yeah, but whats wrong here ? (in a personal chanel)
[04:22] <urox> dual boot = stupid solution
[04:22] <Viper5703> Im getting confused. LOL
[04:22] <urox> no
[04:22] <urox> i'm looking for shared folders to work
[04:22] <chuckyp> urox, okay so then your question is with vmware?
[04:22] <elkbuntu> ubotu tell urox about dualboot
[04:22] <Viper5703> and I like helping on personal level, lakes it easier
[04:22] <urox> like it did in redhat 7 in vmware without issue
[04:22] <Viper5703> *makes
[04:22] <urox> wow
[04:22] <urox> look
[04:22] <urox> i know dual boot
[04:22] <urox> i've used it
[04:22] <grout58> ok i have it mounted but now it says the ntfs drive is readon only
[04:22] <urox> not a good idea here
[04:23] <chuckyp> i'm so confuse channel is going to fast.  urox type more than one fn word on a line please.
[04:23] <grout58> i need to write to it!!
[04:23] <Frogzoo> grout58: ntfs is read only - write isn't supported
[04:23] <urox> ok, how do i get the feature "shared folder" to work, not the stupid "dual boot"
[04:23] <Viper5703> Grout most linux distros cant write NTFS
[04:23] <chuckyp> grout58, you can't write to ntfs in linux well you can but it won't work.
[04:23] <jonolson> urox, Ok, so you know dual boot, but think it's a bad option.  You only want to use ubuntu for apache dev.  You mean...as a server?
[04:23] <General_Error> OMFG
[04:23] <General_Error> YES
[04:23] <General_Error> :D
[04:23] <elkbuntu> urox: calm down, stop using enter as punctuation and for goodness sake, explain what you want in one go so we're not left guessing
[04:23] <urox> no, not a server, a development machine
[04:23] <dorto> why do i get this error: W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_universe_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[04:23] <chuckyp> !tell urox about samba
[04:23] <Pygi> General_Error: congratulations ;))))
[04:23] <dorto> can some one help me?
[04:23] <chuckyp> urox, chill out and read the bot message
[04:23] <General_Error> :D ty for all your help lol
[04:23] <Frogzoo> grout58: google for 'encapsulated ntfs' - you can use a windows driver if you're feeling adventurous
[04:23] <urox> elkbuntu, i want vmware option, called shared folders (between host and guest os) to work in ubuntu
[04:24] <urox> in redhat 7 in vmware it was simlpe
[04:24] <chuckyp> dorto, what are you trying to do.
[04:24] <Pygi> general_error: yw ;) glad to hear it worked finally ;)
[04:24] <urox> surely it should be easy in ubuntu as well
[04:24] <chuckyp> urox, read the fn message or leave
[04:24] <urox> no wiki page about it ?
[04:24] <General_Error> yeah after about 3 hours lol
[04:24] <Viper5703> Urox can asume you have AIM?
[04:24] <urox> why use samba.. blah
[04:24] <chuckyp> I SENT YOU THE LINK
[04:24] <dorto> chuckyp: whenever i start synaptic, i get this error.
[04:24] <urox> Viper5703, nop
[04:24] <NegativeSpace> Is installing a package is just a case of "sudo apt-get install ..." ?
[04:24] <urox> chuckyp, for SAMBA
[04:24] <Viper5703> What do you have?
[04:24] <chuckyp> dorto, try in terminal apt-get update
[04:24] <urox> SAMBA isnt shared folders
[04:24] <dorto> chuckyp: also when i do apt-cache search
[04:24] <gioeleb> is there a possibility to see ejabberd 1.0.0 in dapper? It has been frozed at version 0.9.8, but that version is not XMPP compliant. This is bad for my server :(
[04:24] <dorto> chuckyp: k
[04:24] <Frogzoo> NegativeSpace: yup
[04:24] <goestin> urox, because windows's NFS support isn't that good :)
[04:24] <NegativeSpace> Or does that just download the install FILES?
[04:24] <urox> wow..y ou ppl have no idea what vmware is, ha ?
[04:25] <urox> never used it in your ilfe..
[04:25] <elkbuntu> urox stop being aggressive
[04:25] <urox> that might explain why you dont understand what i want..
[04:25] <goestin> dorto: I assume you already did an apt-get update?
[04:25] <NegativeSpace> Frogzoo Okay, cheers.
[04:25] <urox> elkbuntu, it's hard when ppl keep suggestion wrong ways to solve a problem
[04:25] <grout58> how can i convert the drive to a linux filesystem?
[04:25] <Viper5703> Urox what IM client do you use?
[04:25] <Frogzoo> urox: some of us run qemu :p
[04:25] <elkbuntu> urox we didnt understand what you want becuase you werent clear with your question to begin with
[04:25] <jonolson> urox, Aggressiveness won't help when your question isn't very clear at all. :)
[04:25] <chuckyp> urox, no we don't you are talking about shared folders I have no idea how you would share a folder in ubuntu with out using SAMBA to a windows box.
[04:25] <Viper5703> I know what he wants
[04:25] <Viper5703> and its not that difficult to understand
[04:25] <magnus_1986> Hello people, good evening
[04:25] <urox> Viper5703, you want private talk ?
[04:25] <Viper5703> yes
[04:26] <chuckyp> please get him out of channel
[04:26] <elkbuntu> thanks Viper5703
[04:26] <Healot> evening magnus_1986, any question?
[04:26] <Frogzoo> urox: just use smb4k to mount the shares...?
[04:26] <MrRio> when was flight 5 released?
[04:26] <urox> vmware offers a special virtualization layer for hard disk which allows to mount directrioes from the host os, in the guest os
[04:26] <urox> without using anything but mount //host/c //mnt/c
[04:26] <Viper5703> Frogzoo Ill take this over.
[04:26] <urox> and it works, without samba, without nothing
[04:26] <magnus_1986> Healot: just one. Is there going to be a time when Winmodems will be supported?
[04:26] <goestin> no he wants an option in vmware.... so the host and the guest operating system have a shared folder... so not over a network
[04:26] <jonolson> magnus_1986, Some are.
[04:26] <Pygi> magnus: no, never, never, never ;)))))
[04:26] <Healot> magnus_1986, ask the manufacturers///
[04:26] <urox> it worked for me in the past with redhat 7 as guest, and i want it to work in ubuntu as well
[04:26] <Healot> most aren't very supportive...
[04:27] <Viper5703> Urox what IM client to you have?
[04:27] <grout58> how can i convert the drive to a linux filesystem?
[04:27] <chuckyp> urox, well your problem isn't with ubuntu then its with vmware.
[04:27] <urox> Viper5703, non, if you want to talk to me, come to #urox
[04:27] <Healot> !winmodem
[04:27] <ubotu> rumour has it, winmodem is To get started with winmodems on linux, see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/
[04:27] <chuckyp> grout58, you don't want to do that.
[04:27] <goestin> grout58, mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda1
[04:27] <Viper5703> Sorry missed that line.
[04:27] <spanner3003> thank you all i now have cedega cvs installed on ubuntu :d
[04:27] <grout58> why not?
[04:27] <elkbuntu> urox please refrain from 'but it worked with <insert os here> but it doesnt with ubuntu' as that is called trolling and is not welcome here
[04:27] <urox> chuckyp, welp, i was hpoing there are some ppl here who use them both
[04:27] <chuckyp> grout58, well it will blow out your data
[04:27] <magnus_1986> I tried linmodems. Mine is not supported.
[04:27] <chuckyp> urox, but the problem isn't ubuntu related so I doubt it.
[04:27] <Healot> use real hardware for gnu/linux, soft-hardwares are blunt
[04:27] <gopi> chuckyp: I did wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb
[04:28] <NegativeSpace> How do I "enable synaptics touchpas support when configuring the kernel (CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2)" ?
[04:28] <gopi> chuckyp: And its getting downloaded
[04:28] <Healot> sorry, magnus_1986 we can do nothing about that, unless you know the hardware blueprint...
[04:28] <gnomefreak> we dont support <insert os other than ubuntu here> :)
[04:28] <jonolson> magnus_1986, *shrugs*  Maybe sometime in the future....but not now
[04:28] <goestin> grout58, yeah ow....sorry i mean.. /dev/hda1 was an example
[04:28] <NegativeSpace> touchpad*
[04:28] <magnus_1986> thank you people. You guys are more helpful than I thought, no really.
[04:28] <chuckyp> gopi, just follow the codecs section it looks like you don't have the codecs for whatever your card is capturing in.
[04:28] <gopi> chuckyp: But mine is AMD64 system and using Ubuntu for AMD64 systems !
[04:28] <DoTheRodeo> why not: sudo aptitude install w32codecs ?
[04:28] <jonolson> gnomefreak, I don't see anyone who's asking for another OS...?
[04:28] <chuckyp> gopi, hrm....
[04:28] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell DoTheRodeo about w32codecs
[04:28] <jonolson> gnomefreak, Or distro for that matter ;)
[04:29] <DoTheRodeo> gnomefreak?
[04:29] <DoTheRodeo> lol
[04:29] <gnomefreak> DoTheRodeo: ?
[04:29] <DoTheRodeo> im trying to help gopi
[04:29] <chuckyp> grout58, What is your ultimate goal here?  I'm taking it you are dualbooting?
[04:29] <elkbuntu> tell gnomefreak it wasnt asking how to use another os, it was 'it worked in <other os> but not here
[04:29] <DoTheRodeo> what are you talkin about?
[04:29] <gnomefreak> oh sorry
[04:29] <gopi> chuckyp: but why is it mentioned in that page as....... w32 codecs package ?
[04:29] <chuckyp> gopi, windows 32
[04:29] <gopi> chuckyp: Because its not windows right ?
[04:29] <Pygi> elkbuntu: bah, we should just ignore beavers like that ;)
[04:29] <gnomefreak> DoTheRodeo: you asked why not use aptitude  you should really type the name of person you are helping
[04:29] <Healot> you can get w32codecs from xinehq.de or Seveas repos
[04:29] <DoTheRodeo> yeah
[04:30] <elkbuntu> Pygi, that would be fine, except his enter-for-punctuation habit sped the channel up two notches ;)
[04:30] <gopi> chuckyp: No but why is w32 needed ??
[04:30] <WebLOCH> anyone else here had trouble since the azureus GTK swing update ?
[04:30] <jonolson> gopi, To play mp3s, avi, etc etc.
[04:30] <Micksa> aw crap
[04:30] <Pygi> !enter
[04:30] <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!
[04:30] <Micksa> I just found a bug in wget
[04:30] <Micksa> Length: -1,466,335,232 [text/plain] 
[04:30] <chuckyp> gopi, for wmv wma all that stuff if you would just tell me what kind of capture card you have you can just install the codec for that.
[04:30] <mustard5> I'm reading a post on the forums about someone wanting to 'downgrade' from dapper to breezy...is this possible?
[04:30] <Micksa> 02:30:22 (0.00 B/s) - `GKDVD-4.0.2-0.3-EN.iso' saved [0/-1466335232] )
[04:31] <chuckyp> gopi, but you didn't.  So i just sentyou there to install them all.
[04:31] <NegativeSpace> How do I "enable synaptics touchpad support when configuring the kernel (CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2)" ?
[04:31] <gnomefreak> Micksa: please use pastebin to paste
[04:31] <grout58> whats the command to unmount?
[04:31] <magnus_1986> Whats 'yum' and is it related to ubuntu?
[04:31] <mustard5> They seem to want to just change their sources.list from dapper to breezy sources...I just have my doubts about this as a method :)
[04:31] <Micksa> hey, that was only 2 lines :P
[04:31] <gopi> chuckyp: ok mine is Pinnacle PCTV card and I already installed bttv drivers !
[04:31] <chuckyp> grout58, umount
[04:31] <Healot> Micksa, it's not a bug... really... that's caused by file more than 4Gig
[04:31] <steven_> hi there, is it possible to install the live cd on to my pc?
[04:31] <goestin> grout58, umount /device/to/unmount
[04:31] <Healot> more to filesystem error, not wget
[04:31] <chuckyp> gopi, does it capture mpeg2 or rtjpeg?
[04:31] <gnomefreak> magnus_1986: its the package manager for redhat and has nothing to do with ubuntu
[04:31] <Micksa> shoould not wget be able to handle those?
[04:31] <Frogzoo> grout58: sudo umount /dev/xxx
[04:32] <magnus_1986> oh thanks, gnomefreak'
[04:32] <Micksa> I mean, web servers can hold them (apparently), my filesystem can hold them
[04:32] <gopi> chuckyp: no idea but Iam able to play xawtv successfully
[04:32] <gnomefreak> magnus_1986: yw
[04:32] <das_cookie> Hello
[04:32] <steven_> anyone?
[04:32] <Healot> no... i think there is a wget release with >4gig file size support out there...
[04:32] <MrRio> Anyone know when dapper flight 5 was released?
[04:32] <elkbuntu> ubotu tell micksa about launchpad
[04:32] <das_cookie> why does Shift+Backspace restart my X server all of a sudden?
[04:32] <Frogzoo> steven_: nope - to install, you need the install cd
[04:32] <goestin> Anyone of you knows why ubuntu hasn't got a root user standard?
[04:32] <gnomefreak> MrRio: this past week iirc
[04:32] <chuckyp> gopi, okay then what is the problem another app isn't playing video?
[04:32] <steven_> Frogzoo: thanks mate
[04:32] <jonolson> das_cookie, Tis a shortcut to do so ;)
[04:32] <chuckyp> gopi, but xawtv is?
[04:32] <gopi> chuckyp: thats what Iam wondering ...
[04:33] <Pygi> elkbuntu: ubotu is breaking his/her own rule about enter ;)
[04:33] <mustard5> goestin because it uses sudo
[04:33] <gopi> chuckyp: yeah xawtv is playing
[04:33] <das_cookie> jonolson, its a bad shortcut to do so, any way to change it?
[04:33] <goestin> mustard5, yes i know.. but why?
[04:33] <elkbuntu> pygi hmm?
[04:33] <chuckyp> gopi, then you need to find out what movie player xawtv is using vs. zapper tv or whatever other app you are trying to get working.
[04:33] <mustard5> goestin: because its deemed to be a safer way of doing things
[04:33] <das_cookie> I restarted the x server 4 times in 2 minutes trying to type a paragraph
[04:34] <gopi> chuckyp: xawtv is using bttv drivers
[04:34] <chuckyp> das_cookie, ctrl+alt+backspace shoudl do it.
[04:34] <Pygi> elkbuntu: well, once you type "!enter", ubuntu breaks his/her own rules, and use enter as punctuation, with several lines, while the bot itself suggests one ;)
[04:34] <jonolson> das_cookie, I know there is a way, I just don't ... know it myself.  Ask around here.
[04:34] <gopi> chuckyp: And I guess Zapper tv is also using same right ?
[04:34] <mgedmin> das_cookie: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace restarts the X server
[04:34] <das_cookie> I dont want to restart my x server though
[04:34] <das_cookie> I already know how
[04:34] <goestin> well... of for a smoke
[04:34] <das_cookie> but why does shift+backspace do it?
[04:34] <jonolson> mgedmin, He wants to get rid of the shortcut.
[04:34] <mgedmin> I've done that a few times by accident while trying to use Ctrl+Backspace to delete a word
[04:34] <mgedmin> it is possible to disable this shortcut
[04:35] <jonolson> mgedmin, He wants to know how, I don't know how ;)  I just know it's possible.
[04:35] <elkbuntu> Pygi, there could be a line length limiter somewhere
[04:35] <das_cookie> I tried looking in xorg.conf to see
[04:35] <chuckyp> gopi, yes but they are both using movie players like totem or xine or whatever to play the video and audio.  Thats the difference and whatever player that is may need to be changed in tha tapplication.  I'm sure someone whom actually uses zapper might be able to help better.  Liek their forums etc... I'm sureyou are not the first with this problem.
[04:35] <mgedmin> its an option in xorg.conf
[04:35] <das_cookie> hmnm, I see.
[04:35] <Pygi> elkbuntu: that would be perfect if...
[04:35] <mgedmin> das_cookie: try man xorg.conf
[04:36] <gopi> chuckyp: Actually I tried TVtime Television viewer ans same problem like this..... no video but audio alone !
[04:36] <mgedmin> das_cookie:        Option "DontZap"  "boolean"
[04:36] <chuckyp> gopi, like go to their website i'm sure they have documentation like I say each app could be using a different movie player and whatever movie player they are using is having issues with the codec.
[04:36] <mustard5> gopi: do you have 'sound server' enabled in your sound preferences?
[04:36] <das_cookie> what section does that go in?
[04:36] <chuckyp> mustard5, its not that.
[04:37] <mustard5> chuckyp: you checked that already?
[04:37] <grout58> hey linux can write to fat32 right?
[04:37] <chuckyp> mustard5, he has no video he is missing codecs for whatever movie player zapper and tvtime are using.
[04:37] <gopi> chuckyp: ok chuckyp I will try that !
[04:37] <chuckyp> grout58, yes
[04:37] <mustard5> chuckyp: ah ok
[04:37] <gopi> mustard5: No idea
[04:37] <Frogzoo> grout58: indeed - mount as fs 'vfat'
[04:37] <chuckyp> grout58, if you can convert your xp partition to fat32 in WINDOWS then you could write to it.
[04:37] <grout58> anyway linux can convert to fat32?
[04:37] <mustard5> gopi: ignore what I said..I thought you were watching TV ...but your playing movie files it seems
[04:38] <Frogzoo> grout58: no - do it from windows
[04:38] <chuckyp> gopi, i'm sure if you go to zapper or tvtimes site they have an faq with audio but no video problems.
[04:38] <gopi> mustard5: ok
[04:38] <grout58> i dont have windows :P
[04:38] <das_cookie> mgedmin: what section would that go in xorg.conf?
[04:38] <grout58> well installed on this machine anyway
[04:38] <chuckyp> mustard5, no he is watching tv. atleast I thought he was but the stream from the card is just like amvoie.
[04:38] <das_cookie> keyboard?
[04:38] <chuckyp> grout58, well then how is there an ntfs partition or better yet why?
[04:38] <mustard5> chuckyp: ok..I'm just thinking about how I got my xawtv to work with that problem
[04:39] <cvtboudreaux> im thinking of shrinking my laptop's ntfs partition using partition magic to make room for ubuntu, any success stories doing this?
[04:39] <mustard5> chuckyp: when there is a conflict with sound..I get no picture...just sound
[04:39] <chuckyp> mustard5, yeah but he is lacking video not audio.
[04:39] <chuckyp> mustard5, thats goofy
[04:39] <mustard5> chuckyp: thats what happens though :)
[04:39] <chuckyp> gopi, yeah i dunno try that then.  Sorry mustard.
[04:39] <gnomefreak> cvtboudreaux: ubuntus partitioner will do that too
[04:39] <Healot> gparted does well...
[04:40] <NegativeSpace> Did Italy beat Wales?
[04:40] <mustard5> gopi: I'd like to try my idea if your keen
[04:40] <chuckyp> !tell NegativeSpace about offtopic
[04:40] <cvtboudreaux> i just want to know the best way so i don't destroy my ntfs partition
[04:40] <MrRio> can anyone chaneg the topic in #ubuntu+1 to reflect the dapper 5 release? "Flight 4 is out: http://tinyurl.com/s3vq8" needs to be changed to "Flight 5 is out: http://tinyurl.com/ntq9h"
[04:40] <Blippe> !automatix
[04:40] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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.
[04:40] <gnomefreak> cvtboudreaux: first defrag it than use ubuntus partitioner
[04:40] <beruic> Do I really have to reconfigure xserver-xorg to add/remove screenresolutions from my options list?
[04:40] <Frogzoo> I'm assuming that if you want to use gparted to shrink an ntfs partition, it's essential to defrag from doze first?
[04:41] <Healot> cvtboudreaux, go with Partition Magic if you're comfortable with it
[04:41] <gnomefreak> MrRio: it will be changed
[04:41] <Healot> if you're adventureous, you might wanna try gparted
[04:41] <MrRio> gnomefreak: k
[04:41] <Healot> defragment first... recommended... cvtboudreaux
[04:42] <mustard5> chuckyp: did gopi try changing from overlay to grabdisplay?
[04:42] <cvtboudreaux> i defraged already.... i guess ill just go with partition magic... if it gets destroyed... then i guess i have a long day of reinstalling ahead
[04:42] <General_Error> hey, im just getting used to this but i would like to know and how to install the new firefox, i got it downloaded, but what do i do now?
[04:42] <Frogzoo> !ff1.5
[04:42] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[04:42] <Healot> yeah, cvtboudreaux , I had no problem with PTmagic though
[04:42] <General_Error> ty
[04:43] <Frogzoo> cheers General_Error
[04:43] <gopi> mustard5: tell me
[04:43] <gopi> mustard5: I didnt try that
[04:43] <General_Error> :)
[04:43] <beruic> Do I really have to reconfigure xserver-xorg to add/remove screenresolutions from my options list?
[04:43] <mustard5> gopi: when you run xawtv try 'grabdisplay' instead of overlay
[04:43] <gopi> mustard5: How to do that ?
[04:43] <Healot> Cheers sounds like South Park... Cheers "F*** face" :)
[04:43] <beruic> or is there another way?
[04:43] <gnomefreak> beruic: add remove yes to change it no
[04:43] <Frogzoo> beruic: nope - just edit xorg.conf
[04:43] <jonolson> Healot, Cheers is an English thing ;)
[04:43] <mgedmin> das_cookie: Section "ServerFlags"
[04:43] <mustard5> gopi: right click on the xawtv window it opens up a window
[04:43] <mgedmin> das_cookie: create one if it doesn't exist already
[04:44] <beruic> Frogzoo: thx :)
[04:44] <Healot> yeah... it just reminds me, I saw bad cartoon in latter years
[04:44] <gnomefreak> beruic: if you look in system>preff>screen resolution you could have changed it there
[04:44] <beruic> Frogzoo: Where is it placed?
[04:44] <WebLOCH> Anyone else found a fix for the azureus / java-gtk problem ?
[04:44] <gopi> mustard5: Yeah I did that And video got disappeared !
[04:44] <Frogzoo> beruic: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:44] <timus> how do i add read/write share of a slave drive in ubuntu?
[04:44] <gopi> mustard5: when it was Overlay.... it was working fine
[04:44] <gnomefreak> timus: what fs is it in?
[04:44] <beruic> gnomefreak: I need to add and remove to get a higher max...
[04:44] <mustard5> gopi: ok put it back to overlay then
[04:45] <gopi> mustard5: ok but what about in Zapper and TVtime ?
[04:45] <Frogzoo> timus: it's a little involved - create partitions - mkfs.ext3 - edit /etc/fstab
[04:45] <beruic> Frogzoo: Mange tak (danish for thank you a lot)
[04:45] <mustard5> gopi: I have never used them...xawtv works fine for me...but I can't have any other sound apps playing when I use it
[04:46] <mustard5> gopi: so in overlay you get picture but no sound?
[04:46] <gopi> mustard5: Are u able to record in xawtv ??
[04:46] <gopi> mustard5: No in Overlay both are playing !
[04:46] <krishna> hi guys... suggest a good video player to play .wmv files...
[04:46] <Dr_Willis> krishna,  vlc, mplayer,xine
[04:46] <mustard5> gopi: so you are trying to record?  I have done it once, but I don't have it installed anymore
[04:47] <Dr_Willis> krishna,  those 3 are the top players. also the CODEC used by the video file will matter.
[04:47] <gopi> mustard5: yes I am not able to record.......
[04:47] <das_cookie> mgedmin: thanks, I'll try this
[04:47] <gopi> mustard5: Did it work for u ?
[04:47] <mustard5> gopi: ah ok..I'm trying to recall actually....
[04:47] <Frogzoo> Dr_Willis: hmm... gxine doesn't make top 3?
[04:47] <mustard5> gopi: I'm wondering whether I had it recording on windows or linux...can't remember
[04:47] <grout58> chuckyp check ur pm
[04:47] <Dr_Willis> Frogzoo,  its just a xine varient.. so no. :P
[04:48] <mustard5> gopi: what app are you using for recording?
[04:48] <krishna> which codec should i be using
[04:48] <Frogzoo> !restricted
[04:48] <ubotu> I heard restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[04:48] <krishna> i have xine
[04:48] <gopi> mustard5: No idea.... how to check that ?
[04:48] <gopi> mustard5: Its xawtv
[04:48] <Dr_Willis> krishna,  theres literaly hundereds of codecs.. its a question of what codec did the video maker use...
[04:48] <mustard5> gopi: you would have to search for one
[04:48] <Dr_Willis> krishna,  unless you are making your own videos. :P
[04:49] <mustard5> gopi: brb
[04:49] <krishna> i wish i could...
[04:50] <mustard5> gopi: xawtv doenst have record in its functions by default I don't think..at least I have never seen it
[04:50] <mustard5> gopi: doh..hehe..'record avi'  hehe
[04:50] <mustard5> gopi:  I see it :)
[04:50] <mustard5> gopi: I'll give it a try :)
[04:51] <anarchy_> hi there, i have a problem with an acer wlan usb dongle, maybe anyone could help me?
[04:52] <chuckyp> anarchy_, whats the problem?
[04:52] <gopi> mustard5: ok
[04:53] <mustard5> gopi: hmm..well xawtv is crashing when I press 'stop' :)
[04:53] <anarchy_> the command tail var/log/messages reports : probe of xx failed with error -20
[04:53] <chuckyp> anarchy_, ok
[04:54] <chuckyp> anarchy_, what is the problem?
[04:54] <mustard5> gopi: its also saving what should be an .avi as a .png
[04:54] <mustard5> gopi: apparently its making the wave file though
[04:54] <anarchy_> well i tried loading the drivers with ndiswrapper, but the device won't be shown when i enter iwconfig
[04:54] <gopi> mustard5: hehe yes recording works like a hell in it :(
[04:54] <chuckyp> mustard5, did you have him try the sound server disable? for the other apps>
[04:55] <chuckyp> anarchy_, did you follow ndiswrapper's wiki?
[04:55] <NegativeSpace> How do I "enable synaptics touchpad support when configuring the kernel (CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2)" ?
[04:55] <mustard5> chuckyp: no..I was thinking he had a different issue at that time
[04:55] <gopi> chuckyp, mustard5: How to try disabling sound server and give it a try ?
[04:55] <anarchy_> yeah, it just goes like if "tail var/log/messages" reports no errors go on with this an that
[04:55] <anarchy_> but it does report this error
[04:56] <chuckyp> anarchy_, what model number is your nic etc...
[04:56] <FunnyLookinHat> spanner3003, sorry, didn't mean to be rude.  ^_^;;
[04:56] <mustard5> gopi: hehhe..I'm listening to the sound file it recorded and it recorded the sound from a different channel to the one I was watching :)
[04:57] <gopi> mustart5: lol
[04:57] <mustard5> gopi: sound server is in the System>>Preferences menu
[04:57] <anarchy_> it doesnt have a real model number. its the "Acer Wlan 11g USB Dongle"
[04:57] <mustard5> gopi: I'm on dapper atm though..I really need to try this on my breezy install
[04:57] <chuckyp> k
[04:57] <chuckyp> anarchy_, k hold up
[04:58] <mustard5> gopi: also when I play the .wav in totem my screen goes blank
[04:58] <spanner3003> FunnyLookinHat, it not that i just dont want to pay for some think in not going to use
[04:59] <prodenter> I cant print cos gtklp says "unable to connect to local host" any ideas?
[04:59] <NegativeSpace> Can I go "sudo apt-get install gcc" to get the latest compiler?
[04:59] <rey> any one know how to print using lexmark 1185 under ubuntu?
[04:59] <anarchy_> chuckyp, the closes to a model number i can come up with is : WLAN-G-US1
[04:59] <gnomefreak> NegativeSpace: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:59] <NegativeSpace> gnomefreak Thanks.
[04:59] <gnomefreak> ye NegativeSpace
[04:59] <gnomefreak> yw
[05:00] <rey> any one know how to print using lexmark 1185 under ubuntu?
[05:00] <cvtboudreaux> whew!!! that was the scariest 10 min of my life... Partition Magic worked like a charm
[05:00] <gopi> chuckyp, mustard5: Still w32 codes are getting downloaded... How big is that file ?
[05:00] <mustard5> gopi: quite large..
[05:00] <mustard5> gopi: about 32 mb I think
[05:00] <gopi> chuckyp, mustard5: Some 3 are showing done and 4th one is in progress
[05:01] <gopi> chuckyp, mustard5: i see but is it worth trying it ?
[05:01] <chuckyp> gopi, that may not be your issue.  Like I said I dunno if your card captures mpeg or rtjpeg there are codecs on that page for those.
[05:01] <chuckyp> gopi, try the rtjpeg codec install
[05:01] <chuckyp> gopi, see if thta helps
[05:01] <gopi> chuckyp: where to get it from ?
[05:02] <das_cookie> mgedmin: thanks, but that wasn't the problem, it was an XGL thing, I had to put a command in startup
[05:02] <pescez> ragazzi buonasera a tutti
[05:02] <das_cookie> but I can't get compiz to work right
[05:02] <pescez> ho un problema.. :P

[05:04] <gopi> chuckyp: mjpegtools ?
[05:04] <chuckyp> anarchy_, I can't find anything on that card.  which drivers are you trying the ones from the windows cd or the ndiswrapper download?
[05:04] <fly-away> wtf?
[05:04] <gopi> Goldfisch: hello there !

[05:05] <gopi> chuckyp: ok !
[05:05] <chombee> I'm an an install-fest, we have a laptop that we're trying to install Ubuntu on, but after install, no bootable devices are detected on the hard drive, we are not even getting as far as GRUB. We have no clue! Any ideas?
[05:05] <anarchy_> neither, im trying the newest drivers from acer
[05:05] <balu> hey, i wasn wdonering, where is the guide on enabling multiverses
[05:05] <grout58> can anyone think of a reason im getting this error?
[05:05] <grout58> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb1,
[05:05] <Goldfisch> This time I am playing with ircssi.

[05:05] <Siddhartha211> hey i need some help
[05:05] <Siddhartha211> I'm trying to use LiveCD
[05:05] <Siddhartha211> except I dunno how to boot from cd in windows xp
[05:05] <chuckyp> grout58, sudo cfdisk /dev/hdb
[05:05] <Frogzoo> chombee: LBA enabled in bios?
[05:05] <Siddhartha211> i can do it in windows 98
[05:05] <grout58> i did
[05:05] <chombee> Frogzoo - LBA?
[05:05] <fich> me needs help - saw some tricky things with Ubuntu desktops changing like a rotating cube. Where to get it?
[05:05] <Siddhartha211> but not in windows XP
[05:05] <chuckyp> grout58, pm me again
[05:05] <anarchy_> this is for my laptop, if i cant get this working is there any pcmcia wlan card someone could recommend?
[05:06] <Siddhartha211> can someone help me..
[05:06] <chuckyp> anarchy_, orinoco
[05:06] <Frogzoo> chombee: in the bios's disk detection - disk mode should be set to LBA
[05:06] <anarchy_> thanks, ill look that up
[05:06] <Siddhartha211> anyone...
[05:06] <chuckyp> anarchy_, might want to look around linuxcompatible they list them.
[05:06] <Siddhartha211> I cant get the LiveCD to work
[05:06] <Siddhartha211> oh come on dont ignore me
[05:06] <chuckyp> anarchy_, also if you use the drivers from ndiswrappers site instead of the cd it will probably work.
[05:06] <fich> me needs help - saw some tricky things with Ubuntu desktops changing like a rotating cube. Where to get it?
[05:06] <gopi> Goldfisch: You are having mythtv in AMD64 system right ?
[05:06] <Siddhartha211> how do u get the live cd to work
[05:06] <snowblink> fich, dapper
[05:06] <chuckyp> anarchy_, and if you follow their directions step by step
[05:06] <grout58> did u get my pm?
[05:07] <chuckyp> grout58, no
[05:07] <fich> snowblink: what?
[05:07] <Goldfisch> gopi: Yup. https://scifi.homelinux.net/mediawiki , and then navigate to MythTV for pictures, etc.
[05:07] <chombee> Frogzoo - we don't think that's the problem.
[05:07] <gopi> Goldfisch: I was not able to install it in my AMD64 system :(
[05:07] <anarchy_> chuckyp, ok i will try that, thanks a lot :)
[05:07] <balu> is there a good reason not to use kubuntu?
[05:07] <gopi> Goldfisch: I tried a lot but in vain :( Can u help me installing it ?
[05:07] <balu> over ubuntu that is.
[05:08] <PuppiesOnAcid> balu: Some prefer Gnome to KDE
[05:08] <Frogzoo> chombee: but the install itself ran fine to completion? including the install of grub?
[05:08] <Siddhartha211> anyone
[05:08] <chombee> We installed Ubuntu dual-boot, apparently successfully, but on restart we do not get GRUB
[05:08] <Goldfisch> gopi: That's no fun. How far did you get?
[05:08] <chombee> Frogzoo  - yes, it appeared to go fine
[05:08] <NegativeSpace> What does "... enable synaptics touchpad support when configuring the kernel (CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2)" mean, and how do I do it?
[05:08] <Siddhartha211> how do u use the livecd
[05:08] <HymnToLife> balu> no, cause Ubuntu and Kubuntu are the same damn thing ><
[05:08] <chuckyp> chombee, whats the other os?
[05:08] <balu> poppey, I c so the differences are simply cosmetic right?
[05:08] <chuckyp> grout58, did you get my pm?
[05:08] <chombee> Frogzoo - it is as if GRUB did not get written to the boot sector properyl, even though it thought it did
[05:08] <chombee> chuckyp - WinXP
[05:08] <cvtboudreaux> If you have XP on your main partition, does unbuntu give you a choice as to where it installs grub?
[05:08] <snowblink> Siddhartha211, put the CD in your drive. Reboot.
[05:09] <Siddhartha211> i did
[05:09] <balu> i think im a bigger fan of the KDE..
[05:09] <^Odd^> isthere a ibm thinkpad lappy person in here?
[05:09] <cvtboudreaux> like.. NOT the MBR
[05:09] <chuckyp> chombee, as long as grub writes to mbr on /dev/hda1 you should be good to go.
[05:09] <Siddhartha211> it just boots windows XP
[05:09] <balu> but i dopnt want to uinstall my ubuntu again -_-
[05:09] <chuckyp> Siddhartha211, you need to set yoru bios to boot from cd
[05:09] <LjL> balu: do you mean the differences between Gnome and KDE? then no, they're far from being simply cosmetic
[05:09] <Siddhartha211> chukyp, how do i do that
[05:09] <gopi> Goldfisch: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9483
[05:09] <snowblink> Siddhartha211, you need to set your bios to boot off the CD then
[05:09] <HymnToLife> balu> no worry, you can install KDE on an ubuntu installation
[05:09] <Frogzoo> !tell chombee about grub
[05:09] <Siddhartha211> snowblink, how do i do that
[05:10] <balu> hymntolife: cool im glad
[05:10] <Frogzoo> chombee: check the grub troubleshooting section mebbe...easiest if you have a live cd about though
[05:10] <grout58> u get my msg cuckyp?
[05:10] <balu> LjL; what are the differences? major ones that would matter to the avg linux user
[05:10] <snowblink> Siddhartha211, on boot you should be given the option to change your bios settings
[05:10] <Siddhartha211> snowblink, how do i do that...and once i do that how do i change it back
[05:10] <Siddhartha211> okay
[05:10] <Siddhartha211> u mean like the F2 button
[05:10] <Frogzoo> chombee: what happens after power on?
[05:10] <Siddhartha211> for system settings
[05:11] <snowblink> Siddhartha211, it varies from system to system
[05:11] <chuckyp> Siddhartha211, yeah system settings
[05:11] <Siddhartha211> okay, i'm not sure if thats what you mean...anyone here use livecd with windows XP on a dell
[05:11] <gopi> Goldfisch: saw that page ?
[05:11] <Siddhartha211> okay
[05:11] <chombee> Frogzoo - laptop starts up as normal, says no bootable CD detected, then said no bootable hard drive... stops there. Nothin. We can boot LiveCD's and Install CD's but not from the HD
[05:11] <Siddhartha211> thanks
[05:11] <Goldfisch> gopi: That appears to be mythtv version 0.17. They just release 0.19. I wonder if there is even an amd64 build from back then.
[05:11] <Siddhartha211> illl be back and see if it works
[05:11] <chuckyp> Siddhartha211, then you go in and change the boot sequence to try the cdrom first before the hd.
[05:12] <chombee> Frogzoo - where is this trouble shooting page?
[05:12] <Goldfisch> gopi: I use SVN now instead of the package releases, because I was needing their latest-and-greatest HD patches. Can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file?
[05:12] <Frogzoo> chombee: check pm from ubotu
[05:12] <gopi> Goldfisch: ok
[05:12] <chombee> Frogzoo - ah yes
[05:12] <chuckyp> chombee, if you need to fix the windows boot you can boot to xp cd in recovery mode then fixmbr
[05:13] <chuckyp> chombee, but you need to install grub to mbr on /dev/hda1 during install for dual boot to work.
[05:13] <chombee> chuckyp - we don't have an XP cd
[05:13] <balu> hey how can i get my "wireless connection" to show up in my systems tray in ubuntu?
[05:13] <LjL> balu: i can't really name "major" visible differences. to the "average user", they'll look quite similar - note, i said *look* quite similar, which means that the actual differences are *not* cosmetic, but deeper than that, so the actual user won't see them at a first glance
[05:13] <grout58> check ur pm
[05:13] <balu> LjL: cool thanks, ill look into it
[05:13] <NegativeSpace> How can I tell if I have XFree86 installed?
[05:13] <micle> #flood"
[05:13] <chombee> Frogzoo - we are not getting as far as GRUB, it's not a GRUB error but a pre-GRUB error
[05:13] <micle> fuck you all
[05:13] <micle> hi
[05:14] <micle> ou
[05:14] <chuckyp> NegativeSpace, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[05:14] <chuckyp> !ops

[05:14] <micle> bastardi
[05:14] <chombee> chuckyp - yes, we have GRUB on hda1
[05:14] <micle> #flood"
[05:14] <micle> #flood"
[05:14] <micle> #flood"
[05:14] <NegativeSpace> chuckyp I guess the latest -- I only installed it yesterday.
[05:14] <chombee> chuckyp - or we should, that's where we installed it
[05:14] <Amaranth> micle: Stop or you'll be banned.
[05:14] <LjL> balu: but there are also a ton of visible, not-really-major-but-stil-there differences that are *not* cosmetic. KDE for example is mostly based on "parts", a system of embedding objects/programs into other programs. so in KDE you'll mostly, say, open a PDF inside an existing program (e.g. your file browser) rather than in a separate application
[05:15] <Dr_Willis> Hmm grub whould be on the mbr  of hda, not hda1
[05:15] <micle> E' supercalifragilistichespiralidoso

[05:15] <Balu1> ljl: thats cool ill read up on them
[05:15] <^Odd^> so is there anyone who is a thinkpad guru in here
[05:16] <Balu1> anyway i can get my wirlessnetwork connection to show up in my systems tray? (kinda like the ethernet conection)
[05:16] <Dr_Willis> Balu1,  i think gnome an dkde both have applets that do that.
[05:16] <gopi> Goldfisch: Are u looking it ?
[05:16] <chuckyp> NegativeSpace, then you have xorg
[05:16] <Goldfisch> gopi: Okay. Took me a second to click in my head. My AMD64 is debian, not ubuntu. I haven't used ubuntu's binary releases of MythTV ever.
[05:16] <Balu1> dr_willis: its through an applet?? so it doesnt come w/ the OS?
[05:17] <LjL> Balu1: anyway, let me put this under another point of view: what are the major average-user-visible differences between the Gnome *or* KDE desktop and the Windows desktop? i'm not sure i could name so many off hand
[05:17] <NegativeSpace> chuckyp Is the configuration file for it, "xorg.conf" ?
[05:17] <LjL> Balu1: and yet i'd hardly call them cosmetical either
[05:17] <gekoo> is there anybody who know something about ndiswrapper for Ubuntu 64 compatibility?
[05:17] <Dr_Willis> Balu1,  'comes with the os' is interesting idea.. if you can just 'apt-get install' the thing. :P id say its trivial to install.
[05:17] <Goldfisch> gopi: I am wondering if you are better off installing SVN, and then picking up their latest "stable" label, and building it yourself. I would have to do a little homework to find the label.
[05:18] <Balu1> ljl: well i know the differences between linux/windows desktops def arent cosmetic ;p
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> Balu1,  fire up synaptic and search for 'wireless' and see whats there
[05:18] <Balu1> dr_willis: haha i have to figure out its name first
[05:18] <gopi> Goldfisch: oh i see .... SVN means ?
[05:18] <Balu1> dr_willis got it, let me go look
[05:18] <chuckyp> NegativeSpace, yes
[05:18] <Balu1> gopi: svn lets other ppl connect to ur comp and edit files etc.
[05:19] <Balu1> gopi: the only thing u cant do undersvn is execute files (i think)
[05:19] <Goldfisch> gopi: SVN is Subversion, a sort-of upgrade to CVS. It's their code repository.
[05:19] <chuckyp> NegativeSpace, /etc/X11/xorg.conf I beleive
[05:19] <NegativeSpace> chuckyp Awesome, cheers. Final question I promise (for now): how can I edit the file from gedit?
[05:19] <LjL> Balu1: well i think the difference between Gnome and KDE are on the same level. i.e. not many "really big" differences that you can point out, but a lot of smaller things anyone who's used both will notice
[05:19] <NegativeSpace> chuckyp Aye, that's the one.
[05:19] <Balu1> LjL: i c.. well i usd to use SuseLinux (which was KDE).. and i seem to like the way ubuntu runs beter.
[05:20] <Balu1> ljl: there are a few cosmetic knicknacks in KDE that i DO miss tho ;p like the sliding in/out taskbar
[05:20] <gopi> Goldfisch: I see ... so can u help me in doing that SVN ?
[05:20] <LjL> Balu1: sure you can't do that in gnome? i thought one could
[05:20] <Goldfisch> gopi: Basically, something like "sudo apt-get install subversion". Then follow the steps at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Installing_MythTV_SVN_on_Ubuntu_Breezy
[05:20] <Balu1> ljl: hmm i havent really looked yet, i was to busy being dazzled by ubuntu
[05:21] <Goldfisch> gopi: Actually, you may want to read that article before installing anything.
[05:21] <gopi> Goldfisch: ok let me read it
[05:21] <herrpoonstrikes> hi, can anyone point me in the direction of a good hard drive partitioing guide for ubuntu?
[05:21] <Balu1> i dont know why i cant seem to find this, but what is the comment i add to repositories its universe AND multiverse
[05:21] <Frogzoo> !repos
[05:21] <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
[05:22] <LjL> mgedmin: and yet, it does
[05:22] <eFfeM> hi, got a new PC today. I was using fedora on my prev one, but not too happy about it, so I wanted to give ubuntu a try; don't know exactly what I need though, this is a dual core (D930) system with EMT64, should I go for the x86 variant?
[05:22] <herrpoonstrikes> any ideas?
[05:22] <mgedmin> the wiki could mention that
[05:23] <herrpoonstrikes> right
[05:23] <LjL> mgedmin: the wiki only mentions what people make it to mention ;) feel free to add the mention, that's what wikis are for
[05:23] <Goldfisch> gopi: Meanwhile, I will try to find the label that goes with 0.19 release.
[05:23] <bpuccio> when adding a 2.6.12 kernel, I get an error that "cannot remove `/tmp/mkinitramfs_obMtwq/bin/sh': No such file or directory" and "cpio: ./lib/*: No such file or directory" the computer will not boot this new kernel as a result
[05:23] <Frogzoo> eFfeM: you'll want an SMP kernel
[05:23] <NegativeSpace> How can I edit xorg.conf from gedit?
[05:24] <Frogzoo> NegativeSpace: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:24] <gopi> Goldfisch: ok
[05:24] <eFfeM> Frogzoo, figured that out, but was mainly puzzled wrt 64 bit
[05:24] <das_cookie> stupid compiz
[05:24] <Frogzoo> eFfeM: best leave 64bit alone if you know what's good for you ... ;)
[05:25] <NegativeSpace> Frogzoo Cheers.
[05:25] <eFfeM> Frogzoo, tnx!
[05:26] <Frogzoo> NegativeSpace: eFfeM enjoy & gl!
[05:26] <thierry> salut
[05:26] <NegativeSpace> Frogzoo The file opens blank, should it?
[05:26] <Frogzoo> NegativeSpace: nope, not if you've installed x
[05:26] <General_Error> i did ctrl alt f1 to get into console, how do i get out of it? lol
[05:27] <gopi> Goldfisch: Actually Currently Iam getting w32 codecs
[05:27] <Goldfisch> gopi: Okay, I updated that article with some info on their SVN trac site about how to get the latest "stable" release.
[05:28] <gopi> Goldfisch: where ?
[05:28] <NegativeSpace> Frogzoo Forgot capital G. D'oh!
[05:28] <NegativeSpace> Frogzoo capitcla x*
[05:28] <mikelo> can i resize ext3 partitions? do i need free space to do that?
[05:28] <NegativeSpace> Frogzoo capital**
[05:29] <mikelo> how do i shring partitions?
[05:29] <mikelo> how do i shrink or enlarge partitions?
[05:29] <Dr_Willis> gparted on a live cd' works for me.
[05:29] <Goldfisch> gopi: The same wiki article I sent you earlier. I updated that wiki article.
[05:30] <Balu1> sure there is a way to do sliding taskbars? :X
[05:30] <CoffeeBreaks> Will there be ubuntu server 6.04? If so, are there test images for it?
[05:30] <MacSlow> Greetings everybody!
[05:30] <Frogzoo> mikelo: run resize2fs 1st, then use gparted to resize partition
[05:30] <gekoo> doea anybody use qemu on 64bit distro?
[05:30] <gekoo> \say how about?
[05:31] <mikelo> Frogzoo, why resize2fs?
[05:31] <gopi> Goldfisch: well i dont know what to do now ........ whether to continue getting w32 codecs or try SVN of what u said
[05:31] <Goldfisch> gopi: I don't know anything about w32 codecs.
[05:32] <Frogzoo> mikelo: the file system sits inside the partition - if you resize the partition without resizing the file system, you'll lose data
[05:32] <mikelo> Frogzoo, do i have to unmount the volumes before resizing?
[05:32] <gopi> Goldfisch: ok.... why Iam getting w32 codecs is because if that helps me resolve video problem in Zapper
[05:32] <Frogzoo> mikelo: yep
[05:32] <mikelo> Frogzoo, what about resizing /?
[05:32] <Frogzoo> mikelo: then you'll need to boot from a live cd
[05:33] <mikelo> shit
[05:33] <gopi> Goldfisch: I am getting audio but no video in both Zapper Tv viewer and TVtime Television viewer !
[05:33] <mikelo> ok
[05:33] <mikelo> will dsl do the job, Frogzoo ?
[05:34] <] BreliC[> anyone here using a hauppauge wintv pvr150?
[05:34] <Frogzoo> mikelo: huh? how's dsl relevant?
[05:34] <] BreliC[> everything is fine except for the tuner model which comes up as unknown
[05:34] <chmod775> hey folks when is ubuntu drapper releasing
[05:34] <chmod775> ?
[05:34] <Frogzoo> !dapper
[05:34] <ubotu> The pre-release name for next release of Ubuntu, actual name 6.04. Due 20th April. It is Development Software as such it _May_Break_! > /join #ubuntu+1 < Channel for IRC - Use http://tinyurl.com/rtgxo easy update
[05:34] <mikelo> damn small linux?

[05:34] <] BreliC[> i can view TV with VLC, but only one channel (ivtv-tune lets me change channels, but it doesn't seem to do anything)
[05:35] <mikelo> Frogzoo, instead of ubuntu live cd?
[05:35] <flodine> my dappers is running like a champ
[05:35] <Goldfisch> gopi: One cannot serve two masters. :)  Well, that is about as far as I can go right now. The choice is yours. Good luck.
[05:35] <chuckyp> flodine, same here
[05:35] <chmod775> flodine, wow
[05:35] <flodine> i love it
[05:35] <chuckyp> flodine, like the speed increase in gnome
[05:35] <chmod775> does it have gnome 2.14
[05:35] <flodine> dapper with pekwm
[05:35] <flodine> hauling ass
[05:36] <chmod775> ?
[05:36] <chuckyp> chmod775, it has release canidate of 2.14 because 2.14 is not out yet.
[05:36] <chmod775> ok
[05:36] <chmod775> so is it safe to update to ubuntu drapper
[05:36] <chmod775> ?
[05:36] <ron_> how can i move files to my fake winblows drive in wine?
[05:36] <Frogzoo> chmod775: it's not even 'safe' to run dapper
[05:37] <chmod775> k
[05:37] <gopi> Goldfisch: sorry was away... ok :)
[05:37] <Goldfisch> chmod775: They don't call it "unstable" for nothing. In April, when they release it as "stable", it will be "safe".
[05:37] <chmod775> ok
[05:37] <Xeonwales> afternoon
[05:37] <chmod775> Goldfisch, so I will able to apt-get dist upgrade right ?

[05:40] <Goldfisch> Anybody here using ircssi?
[05:40] <bjornkri> I've got some questions about crontab... does 'root' have a special crontab file somewhere? I want to run, say, updatedb every once in a while but I'm not sure how to add it...
[05:40] <Frogzoo> Xeonwales: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart - or logout & ctrl alt backspace
[05:40] <mgedmin> bjornkri: look at /etc/cron.d
[05:40] <gnomefreak> Goldfisch: you mean irssi?
[05:40] <Goldfisch> Yeah.
[05:40] <gnomefreak> yes i am
[05:40] <Ng> bjornkri: also look at /etc/cron.daily/slocate ;)
[05:41] <Xeonwales> uumm... come again. im rather new to linux (using linspire @ the mo)
[05:41] <mgedmin> bjornkri: updatedb runs automatically every night without any special configuration
[05:41] <mustard5> gopi: I've started experimenting with the command line recording tool :)
[05:41] <Goldfisch> gnomefreak: How do I jump to my other "tabs". Ubotu just sent me a message, but I don't know how to flip to it.
[05:41] <bjornkri> thanks guys :)
[05:41] <gnomefreak> Goldfisch: ctrl+n
[05:41] <Ng> Goldfisch: alt and the number, or "/window N" where N is a number
[05:41] <gopi> mustard5: ok gl :)
[05:41] <jaygeek_> Goldfisch: Ctrl + N (next) or +p (previous)
[05:41] <newtoubuntu> Hi, I'm having some troble with my wlan set up
[05:42] <Goldfisch> Okay. :)
[05:42] <NegativeSpace> How can I restart the X server?
[05:42] <chombee> Breezy dual boot install - when you choose the default dual boot option, the next thing it asks is how big the partition should, min.size 10Gb, is it referring to the resized Windows partition or the new Ubuntu partition?
[05:42] <chmod775> newtoubuntu, ok
[05:42] <newtoubuntu> So, Everything apears to be in working order, ndiswraper is working
[05:42] <chmod775> what probelms
[05:42] <gnomefreak> Goldfisch: /wc in the window you want to close will close it :)
[05:43] <Goldfisch> gnomefreak: You read my mind!
[05:43] <Ng> NegativeSpace: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart   in a terminal, or log out and hit ctrl-alt-backspace
[05:43] <gnomefreak> NegativeSpace: ctrl+alt+backspace is the dirty way but it works
[05:43] <Goldfisch> gnomefreak: To minimize traffic on this channel, where is the help for these keyboard commands hidden? I didn't find any in the man page.
[05:43] <NegativeSpace> Ng, gnomefreak Okay, thanks.
[05:43] <newtoubuntu> And whitin "networking" it says that the card is set up
[05:44] <gnomefreak> Goldfisch: you can see if irssi.org has them
[05:44] <gnomefreak> NegativeSpace: someone taught me and some i learned but messing up :)
[05:44] <gnomefreak> by*
[05:44] <Ng> Goldfisch: irssi isn't especially well documented. try googling for guides/howtos on it too :)
[05:45] <Ng> and there's /help
[05:45] <Siddhartha211> yo
[05:45] <Siddhartha211> anyone there
[05:45] <Siddhartha211> i tried livecd
[05:45] <matthew_w> Hey, has anyone heard that there is a new platform emulator that will more seamlessly emulate Windows, Mac, etc. than Qemu currently does?  I had heard something about this on SlashDot, and was wondering if this is valid, if it will be coming to Ubuntu, or if it already has, and failing that, what it's called and where I could get it.
[05:45] <Siddhartha211> out
[05:45] <Siddhartha211> but how do i access files from windows
[05:45] <Xeonwales> so i logout, the type that & my wireless should work??
[05:45] <Goldfisch> Naw. Help only gives me irc command stuff. To make this proper, I am searching via lynx! I am the "Terminalator!"
[05:46] <mgedmin> Xeonwales: no
[05:46] <gnomefreak> Goldfisch: links2 is also a very good text/gui browser :)
[05:46] <newtoubuntu> but, is their a So does anybody have any ideas as to why my wlan looks like it should work but doesn't?
[05:46] <Siddhartha211> anyone...
[05:46] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211;  Open a terminal.  Type   "  mkdir /windows  "    then   "    sudo mount /dev/hda1 /windows     "        without quotes.
[05:46] <Frogzoo> matthew_w: probly the new cpu hardware - amd's pacifica, intel has something similiar - it will allow qemu, vmware etc to run vms at usual cpu speed, without any emulation layer
[05:46] <Siddhartha211> wait
[05:46] <Siddhartha211> but im on windows rite now
[05:46] <mgedmin> Xeonwales: restaring gdm won't help with wireless
[05:47] <Siddhartha211> i cant use AOL from linux
[05:47] <Siddhartha211> can i use the WINE program with AOl
[05:47] <mustard5> gopi: woot!  I have success via the command line :)
[05:47] <mgedmin> Xeonwales: does your wireless access require a password?
[05:47] <matthew_w> Frogzoo; any other further developments in the DirectX emulation front on Linux? :(
[05:47] <newtoubuntu> Mine does (require a password)
[05:47] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; I suppose you could, although I don't know why you would.
[05:47] <mustard5> gopi: this got me a recording ..  lavrec  -g 384x288+0+0 --software-encoding test.avi
[05:48] <Siddhartha211> because i need to connect
[05:48] <Siddhartha211> to the internet
[05:48] <Siddhartha211> so the only way to do that from linux
[05:48] <bjornkri> what's the difference between a symbolic and hard link?
[05:48] <mustard5> gopi: my audio levels were to low though..so not quite perfect yet :)
[05:48] <Siddhartha211> is to get AOL onto linux
[05:48] <matthew_w> Siddhartha; is it dial up, or PPPoE?
[05:48] <Siddhartha211> dialup
[05:48] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; Just get a dialup program designed for linux from Synaptic.       I'm not sure what one would be, ask someone :)
[05:49] <General_Error> Whats a decent media player like Winamp for ubuntu?
[05:49] <Siddhartha211> but then how would i use it for AOL
[05:49] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; and then put in your AOL name, pass, etc. etc.
[05:49] <gnomefreak> xmms General_Error
[05:49] <Siddhartha211> okay
[05:49] <Frogzoo> General_Error: amarok
[05:49] <matthew_w> General_Error; xmms, Beep Media Player, amarok,.
[05:49] <Siddhartha211> but i dont think AOL allows external dialing...it has to be in the program
[05:49] <General_Error> ok ty
[05:49] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; not entirely sure, don't use it myself :(
[05:49] <mrnicksgirl> any ideas on where to start on getting a wireless usb network card to work?
[05:49] <LinuxJones> bjornkri, softlinks can be used to point to other items on different filesystems
[05:49] <Goldfisch> bjornkri: Symbolic link points you at another file. Hard link must be on the same filesystem, and is another pointer to the disk space holding the file. Only when all hard links are deleted, will the disk space be actually freed up and deleted.
[05:49] <Siddhartha211> matthew_w, so where do i get this dialup program
[05:49] <matthew_w> Are there any really good epic MMORPG's supported on Ubuntu without painstaking labor?
[05:50] <flodine> dapper getting release later now
[05:50] <newtoubuntu> xmms realy isn't very good it's based on the winamp 2.x engine which isn't very good compaired to 5.x
[05:50] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; if you're on liveCD it should be there already.  Not too sure about it, because I almost never use it.
[05:50] <Siddhartha211> and what is the name of it
[05:50] <gnomefreak> flodine: not sure yet
[05:50] <Siddhartha211> the program
[05:50] <PhysicsGeek> how do i partitiion my computer once ive already installe ubuntu?
[05:50] <bjornkri> hmm.. think I just barely grasped the concept, thanks  :)
[05:50] <matthew_w> newtoubuntu; true.  Beep Media Player is more like the new winamp.
[05:50] <gnomefreak> flodine: also dapper talk #ubuntu+1
[05:50] <Siddhartha211> matthew_w, what is the name of the program
[05:51] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; again, not sure.  Because I've never had to use it.
[05:51] <Siddhartha211> okay
[05:51] <newtoubuntu> matthew: realy, I'll try that one out
[05:51] <Siddhartha211> now about using windows files on linux
[05:51] <mgedmin> Xeonwales: I think it should just work... try sudo ifup eth1 in a terminal, or bringing it up in the network connection manager
[05:51] <Siddhartha211> how do i open up a terminal
[05:51] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; try opening a terminal and doing "sudo network-admin"
[05:51] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211;  should be    ubuntu bar -- accessories -- terminal.
[05:51] <Siddhartha211> and then i type in what you just wrote
[05:51] <matthew_w> Yeah
[05:51] <Siddhartha211> and then what should happen
[05:52] <PhysicsGeek> hello
[05:52] <Goldfisch> bjornkri: Softlinks can mistakenly point at nothing, and of course not work. Hard links must point at something real or they don't exist.
[05:52] <matthew_w> It will ask for a password, maybe.  Someone here should know the password on the liveCD.
[05:52] <matthew_w> I'll be right back.
[05:52] <mustard5> gopi:  I feel like an expert now on command line recording of .avi from xawtv :P
[05:52] <PhysicsGeek> i'm a n00b in need of help
[05:52] <mustard5> gopi: the lavrec command is a winner :)
[05:52] <gopi> mustard5: how to type that ?
[05:52] <funkyHat> PhysicsGeek,
[05:52] <funkyHat> !ask
[05:52] <newtoubuntu> Does beep media have winamp TV
[05:52] <funkyHat> gah
[05:52] <funkyHat> ubotu, tell PhysicsGeek about ask
[05:53] <PhysicsGeek> how do i partitiion my comptuer once ive already setup ubuntu?
[05:53] <bjornkri> So if I point at a file that is then deleted, a softlink will remain, but the hardlink won't?
[05:53] <gopi> mustard5: i dont have a command prompt to type that lavrec :(
[05:53] <mustard5> gopi: lavrec -l 100 -g 384x288+0+0 --software-encoding test.avi
[05:53] <funkyHat> Sorry, too late for it to tell you that.. hehe
[05:53] <funkyHat> PhysicsGeek, install gparted
[05:53] <bjornkri> Or even prevents the file from getting deleted?
[05:53] <mustard5> gopi: I open a terminal...I downloaded and installed mjpegtools
[05:53] <mustard5> gopi: its in the repositories
[05:53] <gopi> mustard5: oh i see... then ?
[05:53] <caglar> hello, everytime I start my gnomepanel, it crashes, I think its because of a plugin. Where can I remove the plugins (using config file)
[05:53] <newtoubuntu> So will anyone help me with my wlan problem
[05:54] <matthew_w> Back.
[05:54] <mustard5> gopi: well I have xawtv running...and then I do that in terminal and it just starts recording
[05:54] <funkyHat> PhysicsGeek, I hope you don't want to change the size of partitions that ubuntu is using or something like that...
[05:54] <grajkoo> easy qestion: i have stopped process usingd ctr-c, how to restore it?
[05:54] <mustard5> gopi: you would have to read the manual to get the whole idea I think
[05:54] <matthew_w> So yeah, any good MMORPGs on Ubuntu, really?  I am using GraalOnline but I grow bored.  haha.
[05:54] <caglar> grajkoo you cant do that
[05:54] <caglar> you killed the process
[05:54] <PhysicsGeek> no... I just want to run some windows apps and I know i need to partiition to do that
[05:54] <caglar> hello, everytime I start my gnomepanel, it crashes, I think its because of a plugin. Where can I remove the plugins (using config file)?
[05:54] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, you wireless card is not working ?
[05:54] <grajkoo> noo im stopped - thereis on ps aux list
[05:54] <HymnToLife> PhysicsGeek> which apps ?you could use WINE
[05:55] <mustard5> gopi: the -l option is volume level, the -g option is the size in multiples of sixteen and the filename extension tells lavrec what format you want it in
[05:55] <rash> hi i have a problem with a wireless card
[05:55] <gopi> mustard5: mjpegtools is a must to get ?
[05:55] <newtoubuntu> linux Jones: yea, but it looks like it should
[05:55] <PhysicsGeek> eh... im having spotted success at best
[05:55] <matthew_w> PhysicsGeek; errr... Where are the windows files located?
[05:55] <mustard5> gopi: well I'm having more success with that than trying to get the functions in xawtv to work :)
[05:55] <newtoubuntu> Under network, it says that it's activated
[05:55] <newtoubuntu> (wlan0)
[05:55] <mustard5> gopi: lavrec comes with a timer setting too so you can set how long to record for
[05:55] <grajkoo> cagar:  noo im stopped - thereis on ps aux list
[05:56] <PhysicsGeek> there are none... i completly redid my comptuer as linux
[05:56] <mustard5> gopi: another reason for me to love the command line :)
[05:56] <mustard5> gopi: I reckon I could write a script to do it for me
[05:56] <hollandlucas> hey! Will it be easy to upgrade to Dapper once it is available?
[05:56] <gopi> mustard5: i should get mjpegtools ?
[05:56] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, yyour wireless router is setup to give ip addresses via dhcp probably. run the networking tool (network-admin) and check the settings.
[05:56] <mustard5> gopi: yeah install mjpegtools
[05:57] <newtoubuntu> where is network-admin
[05:57] <newtoubuntu> Oh yea, I did that
[05:57] <matthew_w> PhysicsGeek; Uh, then I don't really understand your question, why would you partition your hard drive?
[05:57] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, sudo network-admin in terminal (enter your user password)
[05:57] <Goldfisch> bjornkri: Every real file you have IS a hardlink, because it points at something on the disk. Creating a hard link is like creating a second file, only it points at the same disk space as the first file did. If you delete the original file, the second hard link will still work, because you haven't yet deleted ALL links to that diskspace. So the hard link will still work. That is why the UNIX command "unlink" is synonmous with "rm". H
[05:57] <gopi> mustard5: and then how u start xawtv ?
[05:57] <Siddhartha211> matthew_w, u still there
[05:57] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; kinda.
[05:57] <mustard5> gopi: well I have it in my menus under Sound and Video
[05:57] <gopi> mustard5: in command prompt just u type xawtv ?
[05:58] <Siddhartha211> so what is the password
[05:58] <Siddhartha211> thing i need
[05:58] <mustard5> gopi: you can do that yep
[05:58] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; I have no idea what the password is on the liveCD.
[05:58] <PhysicsGeek> i was under the impression that i had to to run windows apps b/c i cant get WINE to work
[05:58] <mustard5> gopi: you would need another terminal window to start the lavrec command then though
[05:58] <gopi> mustard5: ok.... and does lavrec comes with mjpegtools ?
[05:58] <mustard5> gopi: yep
[05:58] <Xeonwales> newtoubuntu - try www.linspire.com. Found my wireless card no probs. Ubuntu dont seem to be that advanced yet
[05:58] <Siddhartha211> can i dual boot with Windows and an INSTALLED version of ubuntu
[05:58] <gopi> mustard5: ok !!
[05:58] <General_Error> Does anyone know whats wrong? I have an external hdd, i try and play a mp3 in amorak and it says "cannot play file..."
[05:59] <newtoubuntu> linspire, OK sounds good
[05:59] <matthew_w> PhysicsGeek; what they mean is installing two operating systems at once and running windows.
[05:59] <Xeonwales> im using it now
[05:59] <bjornkri> Goldfisch, aaah, ok. So I might think of it being a copy of the file, only it takes up exactly the same spot as the original?
[05:59] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; Yes, but it involves eliminating all of the contents of your hard drive, at present.
[05:59] <caglar> hello, everytime I start my gnomepanel, it crashes, I think its because of a plugin. Where can I remove the plugins (using config file)?
[05:59] <matthew_w> :(
[05:59] <LinuxJones> Xeonwales, that's not a cool thing to say in a Ubuntu irc channel
[05:59] <grajkoo> General_Error: are U mounted this dhdd?
[05:59] <PhysicsGeek> yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what I need, matthew_w
[05:59] <Goldfisch> bjornkri: Exactly.
[05:59] <Siddhartha211> i cant do it without formatting
[05:59] <caglar> where do I delete gnome-panel plugins?
[05:59] <General_Error> well it shows up on my desktop
[05:59] <bjornkri> Goldfisch, brilliant... thanks :)
[05:59] <caglar> from the panel
[05:59] <matthew_w> PhysicsGeek; What windows programs are you looking for specifically?
[05:59] <Xeonwales> sorry linuxjones, just trying to help the guy
[05:59] <Siddhartha211> because it says on livecd
[05:59] <mustard5> gopi: it took me a while to work out the command existed...I was typing in man mjpegtools and getting nothing..then I read it in the description of the package in synaptic
[05:59] <Siddhartha211> that there is an advanced setup
[05:59] <PhysicsGeek> games primarily
[05:59] <caglar> how do I remove addons of the gnomepanel? (using configuration files)
[05:59] <Siddhartha211> that doesnt erase your files
[06:00] <Siddhartha211> like HALO PC: COmbat Evolved
[06:00] <V4Vendetta> whats the package name of the java that comes with ubuntu ?
[06:00] <LinuxJones> Xeonwales, you offer help by trying to solve his problem not recommend another distro
[06:00] <mikelo> is there any way to access my pc's restricted space where the xp backup lies? (i'm using an x40 ibm laptop)
[06:00] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, so how are your settings looking ok ?
[06:00] <matthew_w> PhysicsGeek; yeah, you and me both ^_^.  I fear you may have to format the whole thing to put them both on.  As far as I know anyway, someone else probably knows better.
[06:00] <PhysicsGeek> matthew_w; thanks for the help
[06:01] <newtoubuntu> It says that the card is active, but it's not connecting to the ined
[06:01] <newtoubuntu> internet
[06:01] <Goldfisch> V4Vendetta: There are multiple javas, such as blackdown. In my opinion, I still go with SUN's version, which unfortunately due to their licensing restrictions, can't be released with the base install of Ubuntu. But, it's not that hard to install.
[06:01] <Siddhartha211> so i cant install ubuntu without formatting
[06:01] <V4Vendetta> Goldfisch, i did install it, but when i do java -version it's still the gnu one.
[06:01] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; usually.
[06:02] <matthew_w> PhysicsGeek; no prob :)
[06:02] <Goldfisch> V4Vendetta: The GNU version is ahead of it in your PATH. Personally, I would remove the GNU one, and then check it out. Did you install under something like /usr/local/java?
[06:02] <LjL> V4Vendetta: sudo updates-alternatives --config java
[06:02] <V4Vendetta> Goldfisch, how do i remove the gnu one?
[06:02] <V4Vendetta> LjL, okay thanks
[06:02] <Siddhartha211> matthew_w; so what is the way to do it without formatting...u no?
[06:02] <Raovq> "kdelibs-bin:
[06:02] <Raovq>  Depends: kdelibs4c2 but it is not going to be installed
[06:02] <Raovq>  Depends: libqt3-mt (>=3:3.3.4) but it is not installable"
[06:02] <LjL> V4Vendetta: update-alternatives, actualy
[06:02] <newtoubuntu> My netowk is password protected, is that a problem
[06:02] <Raovq> can anyone make heads or tails of that
[06:02] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, in terminal type ifconfig -a
[06:03] <General_Error> grajkoo, well it shows up on my desktop
[06:03] <Goldfisch> V4Vendetta: To remove a package, sudo dpkg -P <packagename> (-P purges any configuration files.)
[06:03] <V4Vendetta> java version "1.5.0_06"
[06:03] <V4Vendetta> Goldfisch, i got it, thanks so much, LjL: thank you also
[06:03] <LjL> Goldfisch: why not apt-get [--purge]  remove?
[06:03] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, do you see your wireless card listed ?
[06:03] <gnomefreak> Raovq: yes also please paste in pastebin not in here
[06:03] <Siddhartha211> dang it...i hate linux...its faster...but its slower because i have to use it from cd
[06:03] <newtoubuntu> ok, that's alot of info
[06:03] <Siddhartha211> because i need windows and i need my windows files
[06:03] <mustard5> gopi: I also had to unmute the line in recording in my master volume control to record from line in
[06:03] <gnomefreak> Raovq: paste your /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin please
[06:03] <SpookyET> hi
[06:03] <matthew_w> Siddhartha211; I'm not entirely sure there is one.  Because you would need a separate partition for it.  3 separate partitions as a matter of fact.  well 2.   But anyway, Windows is not a friendly system when you try installing others.  You usually have to primarily install the other then just add windows as a secondary.  Although, I STRONGLY reccomend against putting windows and linux on one hard drive.
[06:04] <LinuxJones> Siddhartha211, install it to your hard drive :)
[06:04] <newtoubuntu> yea I do
[06:04] <Goldfisch> LjL: You say toe-mae-toe, I say tah-mah-to...
[06:04] <SpookyET> Can anyone tell me where nautilus mounts samba shares?
[06:04] <Tomcat_> SpookyET: It doesn't really mount them.
[06:04] <V4Vendetta> Goldfisch, the problem with the gnu java is that azureus always runs poorly with it
[06:04] <newtoubuntu> but all the packets are at zero
[06:04] <SpookyET> also, i did apt-get install beagle, but there is no entry for it in applications menu
[06:04] <Xeonwales> newtolinux you got intel wireless by anychance?
[06:04] <shiznatix> Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me get a partition to be recoginzed by ubuntu. I have read all of the documentation online and it does not work.
[06:04] <Siddhartha211> LinuxJones; i have windows installed too and i want to keep windows and windows files
[06:04] <Raovq> gnomefreak: pastebin?
[06:04] <gnomefreak> SpookyET: did you restart the menu
[06:04] <linkd> Siddhartha211: you can perform dual boots fine.
[06:04] <noteventime> Could someone please help me, I chmod a=rwx /* -R -v but i ment to chmod a=rwx ./* -R -v
[06:04] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Raovq about pastebin
[06:05] <chuckyp> SpookyET, nautilus doesn't mount samba shares
[06:05] <newtoubuntu> naw brodocom
[06:05] <SpookyET> Tomcat_: how do i access them in file open dialogs that don't show the samba shares
[06:05] <linkd> Siddhartha211: ive just joined the conversation, are you trying to dual boot?
[06:05] <Siddhartha211> linkd; how do i do a dual boot without erasing windows and all files
[06:05] <noteventime> Is there anything i can do?
[06:05] <Siddhartha211> yes i am
[06:05] <SpookyET> some show some dont
[06:05] <Goldfisch> When it comes to java, I go to the people who built it in the first place. I use it at work all the time with no problem. Matter of experience.
[06:05] <Siddhartha211> linkd; i am
[06:05] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, look to see if your wireless card has an ip address will look like this >> inet addr:192.168.2.10
[06:05] <Tomcat_> SpookyET: The only way is to mount them manually.
[06:05] <SpookyET> gnomefreak: how do you restart the menu?
[06:05] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, what kind of broadcom card ?
[06:05] <chuckyp> noteventime, did you do that as sudo?
[06:05] <linkd> Siddhartha211: first, do you have any spare partitions?
[06:05] <newtoubuntu> no it doesn't
[06:05] <gnomefreak> SpookyET: in terminal type killall gnome-panel
[06:06] <Siddhartha211> linkd: not sure...how do i check
[06:06] <newtoubuntu> I have the driver working on ndiswrapper though
[06:06] <chuckyp> SpookyET, sudo killall gnome-panel
[06:06] <noteventime> chuckyp: yes :
[06:06] <noteventime> S
[06:06] <gnomefreak> dont need sudo
[06:06] <h1dd3nh4xx0r> Hey guys. I need a good GUI based FTP client for Ubuntu. Any suggestions?
[06:06] <mustard5> noteventime: sounds pretty fatal
[06:06] <linkd> Siddhartha211: ok, i *think* its start > programs >accessories > computer management
[06:06] <noteventime> I know
[06:06] <chuckyp> noteventime, oh christ.  So you changed everything in root to read write and execute.
[06:06] <V4Vendetta> h1dd3nh4xx0r, gftp
[06:06] <noteventime> I forgot the .
[06:06] <h1dd3nh4xx0r> Thx, I'll give it a try
[06:06] <noteventime> chckup: no
[06:06] <Siddhartha211> nope
[06:06] <Goldfisch> noteventime: Fatal is not exactly the word. How about "permanently opened up wide"?
[06:06] <Siddhartha211> that doesnt exist
[06:06] <mikelo> h1dd3nh4xx0r, lftp is not GUI but it's terminal like
[06:06] <bet0x> Hello, any can help me with pptp under Ubuntu x64 ?
[06:06] <noteventime> chckup: I noticed and caceled
[06:07] <newtoubuntu> it's um (it came in the computer) brodocom 4602
[06:07] <linkd> Siddhartha211: alternately you can go to control panel > admin tools > computer management
[06:07] <SpookyET> i still don't see beagle
[06:07] <SpookyET> but it's installed
[06:07] <noteventime> chckup: but etc and parts of usr
[06:07] <gnomefreak> mikelo: gftp is graphical
[06:07] <chuckyp> noteventime, so you changed a majority of stuff.
[06:07] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, you have your router setup for wireless connectivity ?
[06:07] <chuckyp> hrmmm....
[06:07] <mikelo> ok
[06:07] <bet0x> i have a Public IP via VPN, with uer y password, using PAP without crypt, how i can set up the connection?
[06:07] <newtoubuntu> yes it worked when I used windows
[06:07] <Siddhartha211> linkd: then what, im there
[06:07] <chuckyp> noteventime, fixing that is beyond me maybe gnomefreak knows.
[06:07] <SpookyET> how do you mount a samba share?
[06:07] <noteventime> chuckyp:  hehe
[06:07] <mustard5> gopi: you having any success with that?
[06:07] <Goldfisch> chuckyp: Would re-installing ubuntu's base packages cause permission bits to be reset? It's a longshot.
[06:07] <noteventime> chuckyp:  Well, format it is then
[06:07] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: what do i know?

[06:08] <bet0x> i got PAP authentication succeeded, but in a few seconds the connection its terminated, and i dont got my IP of VPN, how i set up that?
[06:08] <linkd> Siddhartha211: ok on the disk management window you should seem all ur drives and ur partition layout
[06:08] <chuckyp> noteventime, ask gnomefreak
[06:08] <noteventime> ?
[06:08] <linkd> Siddhartha211: are there any that are unallocated or unused?
[06:08] <gnomefreak> give me 2 mins before you ask me please
[06:08] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, he did chmod a=rwx /* -R -v and cancelled it part of the way through.
[06:08] <linkd> Siddhartha211: if you have another "drive" other than C:\ that you want to use for linux, you can do that.
[06:08] <noteventime> gnomefreak: Do you have any idea?
[06:09] <Siddhartha211> linkd: i dontsee that, i see system tools settings
[06:09] <gnomefreak> Raovq: type uname -r in terminal and tell me what it says please
[06:09] <Siddhartha211> and all that
[06:09] <noteventime> gnomefreak: /etc/ got 0770 in an hmm. accident

[06:09] <V4Vendetta>  +    2        /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/bin/java
[06:09] <LinuxJones> newtoubuntu, do lspci and find out what make/model chip your wireless card has
[06:09] <newtoubuntu> Is there a GUI front end that mimics the windows wireless acess system
[06:09] <chuckyp> noteventime, hold up a second he'll take a look in a moment.  this channel is extremely busy
[06:09] <linkd> Siddhartha211: hmmz, then ur probably in the wrong place, what version of windows are you using|?
[06:09] <LjL> V4Vendetta: sudo aptitude remove gij
[06:09] <Siddhartha211> lind: i found it
[06:09] <Siddhartha211> im using windows XP
[06:09] <linkd> groovy
[06:10] <gnomefreak> noteventime: have you tried just chmod ing it back to normal than re cnmod it?
[06:10] <LjL> V4Vendetta: you probably want to sudo aptitude remove gcj as well
[06:10] <noteventime> gnome:
[06:10] <Goldfisch> newtoubuntu: sudo apt-get install network-manager
[06:10] <Raovq> gnomefreak: 2.6.12-9-386

[06:10] <SpookyET> how do you tell smbclient to mount a smb dir?
[06:10] <Siddhartha211> one is 87 percent free, another 11, another 62
[06:10] <Siddhartha211> can i use any of thse
[06:10] <linkd> Siddhartha211: and they are harddrives? (not removable or anything)
[06:10] <LjL> SpookyET: you don't. that's the job of mount, not smbclient
[06:10] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, he chmod'd al lfiles in /usr and some other directory before he caught it.
[06:11] <V4Vendetta> LjL, thanks
[06:11] <rash> make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
[06:11] <linkd> Siddhartha211: only a harddrive will work.
[06:11] <rash>       <-- Can someone help me?
[06:11] <LjL> SpookyET: "sudo mount -t cifs //server/blah /mount/dir -o username=blah"
[06:11] <gnomefreak> Raovq: change the word hoary to breezy all of them in the /etc/apt/sources.list save than close  than interminal type sudo apt-get update and than sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:11] <Siddhartha211> they are all harddirves i believe
[06:11] <Siddhartha211> yes
[06:11] <balu1> is there a way to get my wireless to show up in the system tray? i have tried searching for applets, but no luck
[06:11] <noteventime> gnomefreak: Not all in usr, just some
[06:11] <linkd> Siddhartha211: how big are they?
[06:11] <noteventime> gnomefreak: The problem is all in etc
[06:11] <gnomefreak> noteventime: do you knwo the file names?
[06:11] <Siddhartha211> because it says C: 63 mb, 2.85 gb, and 71.59 GB
[06:11] <ron_> is there any way to browse c drive that wine made?
[06:11] <Raovq> gnomefreak: thanks, ill do that
[06:11] <linkd> Siddhartha211: and which one is the one you want to keep?
[06:11] <Siddhartha211> those are the three partitions
[06:11] <gnomefreak> Raovq: yw
[06:11] <newtoubuntu> I have a BCM4306
[06:11] <LjL> ron_: it's in /home/yourhome/.wine
[06:12] <Goldfisch> balu1: I use network-manager. It creates "bars" like your cell phone, and also tried to maintain Internet connectivity all the time.
[06:12] <noteventime> gnomefreak: no
[06:12] <ron_> ty
[06:12] <gnomefreak> noteventime:  :(
[06:12] <Goldfisch> s/tried/tries/
[06:12] <Siddhartha211> i dont know, i just need to keep Windows XP install with ALLL of my files
[06:12] <noteventime> gnomefreak: all in etc :D
[06:12] <balu1> goldfisch: perhaps that what im looking for.. where can i get that
[06:12] <Goldfisch> balu1: sudo apt-get install network-manager
[06:12] <Siddhartha211> so how do i know which one contains my files and windows
[06:12] <Goldfisch> !network-manager
[06:12] <ubotu> well, network-manager is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkmanagerHowto
[06:12] <linkd> Siddhartha211: well C: you have to have with windows
[06:13] <noteventime> gnomefreak: It's not fatal, I have no problem formating, Just that i was planning to do that when dapper was released
[06:13] <balu1> goldfisch:  also, do u have any idea how i can print on a network printer that is installed to a windows XP comp
[06:13] <SpAwNkiLLeR> ok so linux isnt letting me download limewire
[06:13] <bet0x> any can help me with a vpn
[06:13] <Siddhartha211> lind: what do you mean
[06:13] <linkd> Siddhartha211: but the other ones, if you goto my computer, and open the partitions in that you can view what files are on the other partitions, check that you dont need those
[06:13] <gnomefreak> noteventime: i have never chmoded more than a file or two at a time i would do it file by file (note- dapper may be held back)
[06:13] <Goldfisch> balu1: Samba is the only thing I know that allows interoperability between Windows and non-windows printer systems.
[06:13] <Rashvile> why my ubuntu doesn't install rt2570 driver
[06:13] <Siddhartha211> i go to my computer there is only a C: drive
[06:13] <linkd> Siddhartha211: well windows requires that its installed on a drive called "C:" so you have to keep that if you want to keep windows
[06:13] <atoponce> anyone good a regex?
[06:13] <LjL> !tell SpAwNkiLLeR about limewire
[06:13] <Siddhartha211> but all three partitions
[06:14] <noteventime> chuckyp, gnomefreak:  Well, thanks for the help anyway
[06:14] <gnomefreak> !regex
[06:14] <ubotu> gnomefreak: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:14] <Siddhartha211> are located on the C: drive
[06:14] <chuckyp> noteventime, np.
[06:14] <atoponce> a friend asked: if you have two regular expressions and want to know if the interesection is not empty, what do you do?
[06:14] <linkd> Siddhartha211: that doesnt sound drive, can u take a screen shot and post it somewhere so i can see what ur looking at?
[06:14] <linkd> *that doesnt sound right
[06:14] <gnomefreak> noteventime: sorry couldnt help more
[06:14] <shiznatix> Howdy! I have a partition that I share between windows and linux so I can have a common base for my files. I had it working while running Fedora but I don't know how that was done. So basically I need to get this drive to be accessable from ubuntu. How do I do this?
[06:15] <LjL> !tell shiznatix about mountwindows
[06:15] <Siddhartha211> linkd: wow how coincidental, that was exactly what i was about to do
[06:15] <chuckyp> shiznatix, you need to mount that partition
[06:15] <linkd> Siddhartha211: hehe rock and roll
[06:15] <Goldfisch> atoponce: Intersection = AND, Union = OR. So, AND the expressions together.
[06:15] <chuckyp> shiznatix, was it a fat32 partition?
[06:15] <gopi> When I do sudo apt-get install mjpegtools , Iam getting W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.ubuntu.com breezy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_main_binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[06:15] <Marlun> I've got a 200GB hd that I want to be accessible by both windows and linux, whats the best way to do that?
[06:16] <General_Error> is it me or is the sound quality really crappy?
[06:16] <balu1> hm. .how do i start the network manager?
[06:16] <atoponce> Goldfisch: example?
[06:16] <Siddhartha211> waiting for it to upload on dialup.....
[06:16] <LjL> Marlun: there is not a best way. you can format it as FAT32, which will make it perfectly accessible to both win and lin
[06:16] <linkd> Siddhartha211: sure np, take ur time.
[06:16] <Siddhartha211> http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/5838/asd9bk.jpg
[06:16] <bet0x> how i connect to a VPN with pptp, i hate static IP in my VPN, and user y password too, i configure all, i got "PAP authentication succeeded" but in a feu seconds i got too "Connection terminated"
[06:16] <Siddhartha211> linkd: http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/5838/asd9bk.jpg
[06:16] <Xeonwales> can anyone help with a wireless issure on a laptop?
[06:16] <LjL> Marlun: but FAT32 is bad. you could format it as NTFS, but linux couldn't write to it, or you could format it as ext3, but Windows couldn't write to it (almost)
[06:16] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: So what do I do?
[06:17] <Marlun> LjL: Can a FAT32 filesystem be 200GB?
[06:17] <chuckyp> Siddhartha211, what is that a laptop?
[06:17] <grout_> chuckyp whats dir?
[06:17] <Siddhartha211> nope its a desktop computer
[06:17] <Siddhartha211> Delll
[06:17] <LjL> Marlun: i'll have to say that i never tried
[06:17] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: you got me man ask chuckyp
[06:17] <chuckyp> grout58, of what?
[06:17] <Marlun> LjL: I mostly need linux to be able to get stuff from it.
[06:17] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: So what do I do?
[06:17] <gopi> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10005
[06:17] <Xeonwales> :-(
[06:17] <grout_> media/storage
[06:17] <LjL> Marlun: then you could format it as ntfs
[06:17] <atoponce> Goldfisch: there is not string to match against.  rather, testing if the string is in the intersection
[06:17] <Marlun> LjL: ok,  thanks =)
[06:17] <grout_> if im trying to cd there
[06:17] <chuckyp> grout_, yeah directory was /media/storage
[06:17] <Siddhartha211> linkd: u get that?
[06:18] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: is better at the internet connection issues :)
[06:18] <chuckyp> grout_,  you need the leading /
[06:18] <gopi> Goldfisch, mustard5: Can you help me plz ?
[06:18] <Xeonwales> can anyone please help me??
[06:18] <Siddhartha211> Xeonwales: what is your problem
[06:18] <Goldfisch> atoponce: Not sure about that. Every language implements regular expressions a little different. I was talking in the realms of high brow mathematics. Two IF statements, if it matches the first, your good. If it doesn't match the first but then IF matches the seconds, your good.
[06:18] <HymnToLife> !helpme
[06:18] <ubotu> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[06:18] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, what are you trying to do?
[06:18] <Marlun> LjL: ah, I can't format it as ntfs from the ubuntu installation can I? =) no option for that. I have to do that with windows?
[06:18] <linkd> Siddhartha211: ah ok, you have 2 unmounted FAT* partitions, they arent very big tho, it would be a tight squeeze to put ubuntu on there
[06:18] <linkd> however, you can attempt to resize
[06:18] <SpookyET> is smbmount missing?
[06:18] <linkd> C:\ and "make* another partition or two
[06:18] <linkd> Siddhartha211: yea sorry forgive my pauses, im on wifi, it lags alot sometimes
[06:19] <Siddhartha211> make another partition?
[06:19] <Goldfisch> !ask
[06:19] <gnomefreak> chuckyp: hes the one you had paste ifup and ifdown
[06:19] <Siddhartha211> is this going to screw up anything?
[06:19] <chuckyp> linkd, be carefull one of those fat partitions look like a config for hybernate or something on his laptop.
[06:19] <LjL> Marlun: must do that from windows, yeah
[06:19] <Siddhartha211> is there any risk involved?
[06:19] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, ahh
[06:19] <linkd> Siddhartha211: yea you can do something called resizing
[06:19] <Xeonwales> i cant connect to my router wirelessly
[06:19] <linkd> chuckyp: i have no intention of using those but noted
[06:19] <gopi> chuckyp, Goldfisch, mustard5: Plz look at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10005
[06:19] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, can you boot into windows I want to check some stuff on there.
[06:19] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Yes, sorry
[06:19] <Siddhartha211> okay
[06:19] <linkd> Siddhartha211: there is a risk
[06:19] <Siddhartha211> so how do i do this "resizing"
[06:19] <Siddhartha211> a lot of risk...?
[06:19] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: No, I don't have Windows
[06:19] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, and pm me
[06:19] <linkd> Siddhartha211: but, if you do it right, ussually itll work perfect (it always has for me)
[06:19] <mustard5> gopi: k
[06:20] <Goldfisch> gopi: Okay, give me a second.
[06:20] <Siddhartha211> okay
[06:20] <Siddhartha211> so what do i do
[06:20] <linkd> Siddhartha211: the risk is you can corrupt your windows partition (so make sure you backup!)
[06:20] <chuckyp> linkd, I would resize the 70 gig partiton to be safe and then put ubuntu on empty space
[06:20] <Siddhartha211> oh snap...
[06:20] <linkd> chuckyp: my intention is that :P
[06:20] <Siddhartha211> okay i will back up
[06:20] <balu1> i plugged a wireless USB adapter in, how do i know if it was recognized?
[06:20] <yaazkal> join #ubuntu-co
[06:21] <Siddhartha211> xeonwales: not sure im not that experienced at ubuntu
[06:21] <BobC2> I'm close to trying to set up a dual boot Win98/Ubuntu sys but was wondering if there is NEWS READER for Ubuntu?  I use Agent now.
[06:21] <linkd> Siddhartha211: the proceed *i* use, is first, backup, then defrag the partition completely, until there is no fragments. then reboot into a livecd (knoppix will do) then run a program called "qtparted"
[06:21] <mustard5> gopi: did you run sudo apt-get update?
[06:21] <Goldfisch> gopi: Have you enabled restricted, universe, multiverse repositories?
[06:21] <gopi> Goldfisch: yes
[06:21] <V4Vendetta> how do i add a public key for a mirror ?
[06:21] <linkd> Siddhartha211: qtparted is a simple graphical partition that can be used for resizing
[06:21] <SpookyET> From where do I get smbmount?
[06:21] <Xeonwales> can anyone help me with a wireless issue on a laptop?
[06:21] <gopi> mustard5: yes i did that a few days back
[06:21] <mustard5> gopi: run it again
[06:21] <Siddhartha211> how do  run the program

[06:21] <Siddhartha211> what do i click
[06:22] <gopi> mustard5: ok

[06:22] <Siddhartha211> i  knopw
[06:22] <Siddhartha211> but im saying is it the start-run feature of linux
[06:22] <Siddhartha211> like comparitively
[06:22] <Xeonwales> o well, im gonna have to stick with linspire then :-(
[06:23] <linkd> Siddhartha211: ah, well there is a menu system yea
[06:23] <linkd> Siddhartha211: but, if u use knoppix there will be a terminal icon on the bottom bar
[06:23] <MartinMagnusson> I'm trying to run the Ubuntu install on a machine with 24 MB memory, but I see that the Ubunti 5.10 installer needs 64 MB. I get a kernel panic with "out of memory". Is there no way to install Ubuntu with 24 MB RAM?
[06:23] <linkd> Siddhartha211: just click on that, type "qtparted" hit enter
[06:23] <Siddhartha211> how come ur tutorial says
[06:23] <Siddhartha211> sudo qtparted
[06:24] <balu1> how do i know if a USB device is picked up? (such as my usb wireless net adapter)
[06:24] <linkd> Siddhartha211: alterantively there is like a start->run thing ( http://figs.cyberciti.biz/blogs/tips_tricks/partition_resize_snapshot1.jpg ) but i cant remember off hand how to get that (i dont run KDE)
[06:24] <mustard5> Xeonwales: keep pluggin away..someone might help eventually :)
[06:24] <linkd> Siddhartha211: ah, well yea, you need to be "root" to run it
[06:24] <Goldfisch> !wiki NetworkManager
[06:24] <linkd> Siddhartha211: you can either do sudo or u can just do "su root" then type "qtparted"

[06:25] <Goldfisch> !tell balu1 about NetworkManager
[06:25] <V4Vendetta> how do i open the gnome task manager?
[06:25] <NegativeSpace> Can someone tell me what: "For use with kernel 2.6.x you need to enable synaptics touchpad support when configuring the kernel (CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2). You also need support for the evdev interface (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV). If you compile evdev as a module, make sure it is loaded before starting the X server, as it will not be auto-loaded." means and how to go about doing it?
[06:25] <Xeonwales> can anyone please help me with a wireless network issue??
[06:25] <BobC2> Anyone know if there is an Agent like News Reader for Ubuntu?
[06:25] <balu1> goldfisch: thats the page i was using
[06:25] <Siddhartha211> linkd: so what resizing do i do to which partitio
[06:25] <linkd> Xeonwales: whats the issue?
[06:25] <Siddhartha211> which one should i make bigger and which one smaller
[06:25] <Goldfisch> Well, did you see no new applets popup on the task bar when you ran nm-applet?
[06:25] <linkd> Siddhartha211: right, well i think ur C: will be listed as something like /dev/hda2 according to ur screenshot u gave me earlier
[06:25] <Siddhartha211> and if all of this fails can i reinstall windows and stuff
[06:25] <viller> why do I have to right click>eject to eject the cd?
[06:25] <Webby`> anyone know?
[06:25] <Siddhartha211> linkd: what you mean by that
[06:26] <balu1> goldfisch: i wanted to know HOW i can see it running, i followe dthe instructions, i dont see it in my taskbar
[06:26] <V4Vendetta> how do i open the gnome task manager?
[06:26] <Siddhartha211> wait...so i can access windows files by going to the dev folder and htne hda2?
[06:26] <timmy334> is there a deb out for TheWidgetFactory?
[06:26] <Siddhartha211> from linux
[06:26] <LjL> viller: because there isn't a reliable way to detect pressing of the Eject button on the drive
[06:26] <Webby`> Hi, Does ATI's TV Wonder Usb 2.0 work in Ubuntu?
[06:26] <Siddhartha211> because there is
[06:26] <Xeonwales> linkd cant connect ot router wirelessly
[06:26] <Siddhartha211> a dev folder
[06:26] <linkd> Siddhartha211: ok well in linux our partitions dont have a letter-name like C: or D: or anything, we have device addresses
[06:26] <LjL> !tell Siddhartha211 about enter
[06:26] <PuMpErNiCkLe> V4Vendetta: Applications - system - system monitor
[06:26] <linkd> Siddhartha211: hda2 means "master IDE slot, partition 2"
[06:26] <viller> Ljl: but there is on Windows?
[06:27] <V4Vendetta> PuMpErNiCkLe, thanks
[06:27] <shiznatix> Hello, I just tried the diskmounter script and I am getting the same error that I was getting when I was trying to do it by hand

[06:27] <ppd> hi. does anybody know where to get a v4l module for dapper?
[06:27] <Siddhartha211> LjL what do you mean by dont press enter
[06:27] <linkd> Xeonwales: i cant remmeber how to do that, sorry
[06:27] <Goldfisch> balu1: It should create an applet on the tool bar. It first shows two dots with a circling swoosh, and if it connects, replaces it with bars. There were no error messages when you ran nm-applet?
[06:27] <ppd> oder how to enable overlay mode otherwise
[06:27] <V4Vendetta> PuMpErNiCkLe, do you know how i bind that to a key?
[06:27] <Xeonwales> linkd - ok, thnx anyway
[06:27] <Siddhartha211> LjL: how do i stop the enter thing and spamming
[06:27] <balu1> goldfisch: nope.. everything went A OK
[06:27] <LjL> viller: no, windows simply doesn't care. you can eject a cd at any time in windows, and if you do it at the wrong time, a read error will probably pop up and things will probably crash
[06:27] <slew> hi. does anyone know where to put a new mouse cursor theme?
[06:27] <BobC2> Anyone know if there is an Agent like News Reader for Ubuntu?
[06:27] <mustard5> ppd: I'm on dapper atm and its in the repositories I thought
[06:27] <timmy334> is there a deb out for TheWidgetFactory?
[06:27] <Goldfisch> balu1: ps -ef | grep nm-applet
[06:27] <PuMpErNiCkLe> V4Vendetta: It should be possible in applications -> system -> configuration editor -> apps -> metacity
[06:27] <mustard5> ppd: I'm running xawtv so I guess its installed
[06:28] <NegativeSpace> Can someone tell me what: "For use with kernel 2.6.x you need to enable synaptics touchpad support when configuring the kernel (CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2). You also need support for the evdev interface (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV). If you compile evdev as a module, make sure it is loaded before starting the X server, as it will not be auto-loaded." means and how to go about doing it?
[06:28] <Siddhartha211> linkd: what do i do for resizing the partitions
[06:28] <ppd> mustard5: are you sure? what cpu load do you have when watching tv?
[06:28] <Siddhartha211> linkd: also, what do i do after i resize them
[06:28] <balu1> it didnt do anything?
[06:28] <balu1> goldfisch: srry* it didnt do anything
[06:28] <mustard5> ppd: never really paid much attention...let me try
[06:28] <LjL> Siddhartha211: [18:26]  <Siddhartha211> from linux *enter* [18:26]  <Siddhartha211> because there is *enter* [18:26]  <Siddhartha211> a dev folder *enter*   <--- i refer to this
[06:28] <BobC2> Anyone know if there is an Agent like News Reader for Ubuntu?
[06:28] <viller> Ljl: I knew there was no secure way to do it in Windows if there isn't in Linux, I just asked because I'm really pissed right now. But not on ejecting, on html actually.
[06:28] <Goldfisch> balu1: nm-applet is not running?
[06:28] <LinuxJones>  BobC2 pan
[06:29] <Siddhartha211> LjL: so how do i stop that
[06:29] <linkd> Siddhartha211: it says in that link *how* resize the partitions
[06:29] <shiznatix> LjL, that mounting script you gave me did not work, it gives me the same errors that I get when I try to mount the partitions manually
[06:29] <BobC2> Ahhh thanks LinuxJones!
[06:29] <LinuxJones>  BobC2 pan is excellent you'll love it
[06:29] <bpuccio> anyone here familiar with initramfs and kernel updates?
[06:29] <LjL> Siddhartha211: uh..... perhaps you don't press enter after every three words, but instead just wait until you've finished the whole sentence?
[06:29] <linkd> Siddhartha211: after uve done that, and split the partitions in 2, id reboot and make sure windows still works, then reboot again with the ubuntu install CD, and try to install it
[06:29] <slew> hi. does anyone know where to put a new mouse cursor theme?
[06:29] <LjL> shiznatix: what are those?
[06:30] <BobC2> LinuxJoenes Cool I'll google it
[06:30] <mustard5> ppd: xawtv seems to be using 1 percent cpu
[06:30] <ppd> mustard5: so I guess you have overlay mode enabled
[06:30] <Xeonwales> i cant connect to the net wirelessly on a laptop, can anyone help please?
[06:30] <mustard5> ppd: grabdisplay
[06:30] <Siddhartha211> so which partition do i make bigger
[06:30] <Siddhartha211> for linux
[06:30] <NegativeSpace> Why does Mozilla (not Firefox, just Mozilla, or whatever it's called) keep appearing back on my machine when I log in?
[06:30] <ppd> mustard5: hm.  that's exactly what I want to avoid :)
[06:30] <Siddhartha211> linkd: which partition do i make bigger for linux
[06:30] <Fix_> the startup commands that are performed on login, in which file can they be found?
[06:31] <mustard5> ppd: my card doesnt work with overlay
[06:31] <LinuxJones> NegativeSpace, you have save session enabled in system > preferences > session
[06:31] <Siddhartha211> linkd: and when i install it, how do i select which partition to install it o
[06:31] <Siddhartha211> **on
[06:31] <Fix_> so not going through system -> preferences ->session
[06:31] <mustard5> ppd: are rather something doesnt work :)
[06:31] <ppd> mustard5: mine would but the needed v4l module is missing
[06:31] <Fix_> but in console
[06:31] <Xeonwales> i cant connect to the net wirelessly on a laptop, can anyone help please?
[06:31] <General_Error> why is the sound quality quite bad???
[06:31] <linkd> Siddhartha211: you arent making any partition "Bigger" you are taking the 70gig one, and modifying its size, from the screenshot u have aout 40gigs free, so what *id* do if i were u (new) is make that 70 gig into a 50gig and a 20gig, and use the 202gig for linux
[06:31] <cadfix> hello to eveybody
[06:32] <mustard5> ppd: well there is v4l-conf ?
[06:32] <BobC2> LinuxJones Thanks for the advice.... cya
[06:32] <cadfix> does anybody know which is the properly value for the JAVA_HOME enviroment variable on ubuntu?
[06:32] <shiznatix> Ljl, mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda2,
[06:32] <shiznatix>        missing codepage or other error
[06:32] <shiznatix>        (aren't you trying to mount an extended partition,
[06:32] <shiznatix>        instead of some logical partition inside?)
[06:32] <shiznatix>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[06:32] <shiznatix>        dmesg | tail  or so
[06:32] <Goldfisch> !tell Xeonwales about WirelessNetworking
[06:32] <V4Vendetta> where is the OpenSSH server config file at ?
[06:32] <ppd> mustard5: yes, but there should be a x.org module
[06:32] <Siddhartha211> linkd: so when i make the 70 gig partition to 50, where does the 20 gig go
[06:32] <mustard5> ppd: k

[06:32] <bet0x1> Any can give me a little help configuring PPTP under Ubuntu?
[06:33] <ppd> mustard5: however, thank you
[06:33] <Stormx2> how would I save mms:// links in ubuntu?
[06:33] <NegativeSpace> LinuxJones "Automatically save changes to session" isn't ticked...
[06:33] <LjL> shiznatix: try "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda2 /whatever/directory", assuming the fs is ntfs
[06:33] <linkd> Siddhartha211: there should be something in the install interface that asks you, you should consult the ubuntu HOWTOs on installation for that (going thru the entire installation with u would take too much time)
[06:33] <linkd> Siddhartha211: the 20gig is unallocated on the drive.
[06:33] <mustard5> ppd: I get this with lsmod v4l2_common             6016  1 bttv
[06:33] <Rashvile> I need help to install rt2570 usb driver
[06:33] <slew> hi. does anyone know where to put a new mouse cursor theme?
[06:33] <LinuxJones> NegativeSpace, is there an entry in the startup programs ?
[06:33] <mustard5> ppd: would v4l2_common be it?
[06:33] <NegativeSpace> LinuxJones No, there's nothing.
[06:34] <Siddhartha211> linkd: so then once i am done with that and i install linux, do i have to select a partition to install it in or do will it do it automatically
[06:34] <LinuxJones> NegativeSpace, wth ?
[06:34] <linkd> Siddhartha211: itll ask u during the installation
[06:34] <ppd> mustard5: I guess no, as overlay doesn't work although that module is loaded by default
[06:34] <NegativeSpace> LinuxJones Yeah exactly, I uninstall it each time, and it comes back next time I log in.
[06:34] <Siddhartha211> linkd: what will it ask me and what do i select
[06:34] <balu1> goldfisch: got it  working. tnx
[06:34] <V4Vendetta> how do i restart the OpenSSH server?
[06:34] <Goldfisch> balu1: Good.
[06:35] <linkd> Siddhartha211: when you actually instlall ubuntu you get to a "partitioning" stage, if i were u, id use the guided partition to guess what setup u want
[06:35] <Goldfisch> V4Vendetta: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[06:35] <mustard5> ppd: k..for my own card I know there are known issues with overlay and certain hardware setups
[06:35] <LinuxJones> NegativeSpace, you unistalled firefox and it get's re-installed ?
[06:35] <linkd> Siddhartha211: like i said, u should consult the ubuntu installation HOWTO with those questions
[06:35] <balu1> goldfisch: could u tell me how i can see if a USB device is detected?
[06:35] <V4Vendetta> Goldfisch, thanks
[06:35] <shiznatix> Ljl, same error
[06:35] <Xeonwales> any1 know when CNR will be on ubuntu???
[06:35] <XiCillin> is there a crond GUI for gnome?
[06:35] <LjL> shiznatix: are you sure /dev/hda2 is the right partition?
[06:35] <Goldfisch> balu1: lsusb
[06:35] <NegativeSpace> LinuxJones Not Firefox, just Mozilla Web Browser, which is different. I get rid of it through Synaptic Package Manager, but it keeps coming back!
[06:36] <mustard5> gopi: any success?
[06:36] <balu1> hm k tnx
[06:36] <fabien> bonjour
[06:36] <Siddhartha211> linkd: so i will select the guided partition, and it will select automatically the right partition...but what if it selects the windows partition and erases it
[06:36] <Alexi5> wazzup
[06:36] <slew> hi. does anyone know where to put a new mouse cursor theme?
[06:36] <mustard5> gopi: I'm dying to know how you are going :)
[06:36] <fabien> quel qu'un peut maid a installer a msn ??
[06:36] <fabien> svp ??
[06:36] <LinuxJones> NegativeSpace, call an exorcist or something :)
[06:36] <fabien> ???
[06:36] <linkd> Siddhartha211: it wont
[06:36] <Nogimics> How do I install ncurses on ubuntu? what is the command pls? sudo apt-get install ncurse ??
[06:37] <LjL> fabien: "sudo aptitude install amsn", after enabling universe
[06:37] <shiznatix> Ljl: it would make sence because when I was installing ubuntu it showed the partions 1st windows, 2nd the partition I want to work, 3rd free space for ubuntu
[06:37] <linkd> sidd	itll ony use empty partitions
[06:37] <NegativeSpace> LinuxJones Heh Heh.
[06:37] <linkd> no	i think its something like sudo apt-get install libncurses
[06:37] <linkd> * Nogimics
[06:37] <Nogimics> Thanks
[06:37] <Siddhartha211> linkd: what percent chance is there that this will happen successfuly
[06:37] <linkd> * Siddhartha211: itll ony use empty partitions
[06:38] <NegativeSpace> Can someone tell me what: "For use with kernel 2.6.x you need to enable synaptics touchpad support when configuring the kernel (CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2). You also need support for the evdev interface (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV). If you compile evdev as a module, make sure it is loaded before starting the X server, as it will not be auto-loaded." means and how to go about doing it?
[06:38] <LjL> fabien: but Gaim includes support for MSN, too
[06:38] <linkd> Siddhartha211: i cant give an exact figure, but if u do exactly as ive said with the resizing, you should be fine, but beaware of the risk when resizing, and make sure u backup
[06:38] <Nogimics> hmm its not: install libncurses
[06:38] <LinuxJones> NegativeSpace, do it from a terminal it might give you more info. do sudo apt-get --purge remove mozilla-whatever-package-name-is
[06:38] <pinkisntwell> if I install msttcorefonts what happens to the existing fonts?
[06:38] <NegativeSpace> LinuxJones Okay dude, I'll try that -- thanks.
[06:38] <Nogimics> is there a place where I can go when I need to find what package name I need to type to install stuff?
[06:38] <fabien> ou o u
[06:38] <fabien> ouou
[06:38] <LjL> !tell Nogimics about shortapt
[06:39] <Nogimics> LjL Thanks
[06:39] <LinuxJones> NegativeSpace, you can add modules at bootup by placing the module name in the /etc/modules file (ie nvidia)
[06:39] <SpookyET> i'm trying to mount a smb share and it's driving me nuts
[06:39] <SpookyET> smbmount is missing
[06:39] <SpookyET> and mount is bitching
[06:39] <linkd> Nogimics: try typing "apt-cache search ncurses" thatll search for ncurses related packages
[06:39] <linkd> ugh lag
[06:39] <LjL> shiznatix: hm not sure they necessarly match... i think i would try other partitions, shouldn't hurt anyway
[06:40] <NegativeSpace> LinuxJones So I get evdev and stick it in /etc/modules?
[06:40] <LjL> SpookyET: install smbmount then. it's in the smbfs package
[06:40] <slew> hi. does anyone know where to put a new mouse cursor theme?
[06:41] <SpookyET> LjL: that's why mount is bitching
[06:41] <SpookyET> no smbfs
[06:41] <LjL> SpookyET: yeah, so install it
[06:42] <NoelJB> In Synaptic, advanced mode, status.  What does "Local or Obsolete" mean?  I don't see anything about it in the manual, the synaptic website, nor the ubuntu web site.
[06:42] <thrice`> anyone tried out flight 5 yet?
[06:42] <thrice`> and can comment on stability :)
[06:42] <LjL> NoelJB: means packages that are known by the APT system, but don't appear in the repositories, i think
[06:42] <LjL> NoelJB: so, it's either packages that *used* to be in the reps but aren't anymore, or packages that you installed manually from outside the reps
[06:43] <NoelJB> LjL: hmmm ... I installed emacs using apt-get, rather than synaptics.  Would that cause it?
[06:43] <LjL> NoelJB: no
[06:43] <slew> hi. does anyone know where to put a new mouse cursor theme?
[06:44] <NoelJB> LjL: because those are precisely the packages appearing in that list.
[06:44] <LjL> NoelJB: perhaps the names have been changed recently? what are the packages called?
[06:45] <GnarusLeo> as I live and breathe, you have killed me, you have killed me
[06:46] <NoelJB> LjL: emacs21, emacs21-bin-common, emacs21-common, emacsen-common and xaw3dg
[06:46] <purplefeltangel> how do you pronounce ubuntu? :D
[06:47] <__mikem> ooo bun tooo
[06:47] <tristanmike> ooo boon too
[06:47] <LjL> NoelJB: not sure about it, those *are* the current names
[06:47] <Alatariel> nabend
[06:47] <mustard5> I pronounce it more oo boon too
[06:47] <purplefeltangel> ephasis on which syllable?
[06:47] <purplefeltangel> *emphasis
[06:47] <mustard5> purplefeltangel: second
[06:47] <__mikem> why does it matter
[06:48] <mustard5> purplefeltangel: actually first
[06:48] <purplefeltangel> __mikem: just curious ;P
[06:48] <__mikem> ok
[06:48] <purplefeltangel> mustard5: really? thats a bit awk
[06:48] <NoelJB> LjL: hence my question.

[06:48] <__mikem> how do you pronounce glocenschpeel
[06:49] <__mikem> lol

[06:49] <__mikem> lol
[06:49] <milamber> i've got problems playing live feed wmv, and mpg with totem ( integrated in firefox) anyon, btw hel;lo ?:D
[06:49] <__mikem> sorry, spelling aint my strong point
[06:49] <NoelJB> on the other hand, I have a feeling that most of us don't pronounce ubuntu the way that a native speaker would.
[06:50] <Eltariel> Pronounciation: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-106616.html
[06:50] <__mikem> I once went to a competition for FBLA and I found atleast three people walking around with pressed ubuntu cds in their pocket
[06:50] <__mikem> It made for interesting conversation
[06:51] <mrnicksgirl> anybody with experiece in getting USB network cards to work with UB?
[06:51] <NegativeSpace> How can I tell which version of xorg I have?
[06:51] <ramlez> hi, how i can change duplex mode on ubuntu? :)
[06:51] <__mikem> mrnicksgirl, I have experience, but it is all bad experience
[06:51] <NoelJB> __mikem: that's alright.  I'm more interested in resolving this synaptics question that how to pronounce the OS.  ;-)
[06:51] <mrnicksgirl> mikem: hmmmm :(
[06:52] <NoelJB> NegativeSpace: either the GUI or command line tools for the package manager should tell you.
[06:52] <__mikem> you should probably try to find another network card, usb support in ubuntu is a bit behind the times

[06:59] <techrush> if i cant fiddle with getting a system working right i get bored :/
[06:59] <NoelJB> NegativeSpace: yes.  on the thought that many people know how to do what you asked with rpm, and perhaps not with dpkg.
[06:59] <SirKillalot> where does gnome-panel know which addons to load?
[06:59] <kreig> Raovq: ubuntu-desktop is a "metapackage" i believe
[06:59] <g0dchild> !gnome
[06:59] <SirKillalot> is there a configuration file?

[06:59] <Xeonwales> im on linspire @ the mo, but want to switch, but i cant get wireless to work on ubuntu (works on linspire without no messing about)
[06:59] <kreig> the reason is suggests removing it, is that the next time you update it, it will try andpull firefox back in 8)

[07:00] <shiznatix> Hey can anyone tell me how to install cabextract? I need to get a driver file from a .exe

[07:02] <arri> I need help
[07:02] <bpuccio> I'm getting a "trying to overwrite `/usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Algiers', which is also in package locales" however, removing locales doesn't gain me anything, is there anyway I can bypass this and for apt to move on?
[07:02] <NoelJB> LjL: OK, I just noticed that aptitude lists what "Local or Obsolete" means, but I don't see why it applys to those.  Weird.
[07:02] <Goldfisch> gopi: Whatcha need?

[07:09] <ubotu> ask is, like, totally, just ask. Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise and on-topic. Information like hardware make, model, outputs of commands that you used pasted onto http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl is important. Better questions more frequently yield better answers.

[07:14] <aridese> i've installed hamachi for linux and im trying to get warcraft3 to work over it (with wine)... but it doesn't work
[07:14] <Goldfisch> aridese: You just gave me an appetite from sushi!
[07:15] <CarinArr> negativespace, you'll want to install tetex-base/utils/extras
[07:15] <aridese> Goldfisch, but you're the fish!
[07:15] <NegativeSpace> CarinArr Will that give me everything I need for LaTeX?
[07:15] <CarinArr> negativespace, those will give you the texi2pdf and stuff
[07:15] <V4Vendetta> Goldfisch, you damn cannibal
[07:15] <Goldfisch> Uh oh.
[07:15] <CarinArr> negativespace, well unless you're doing something fancy that requires some obscure environments
[07:15] <Tomypreach> ?
[07:16] <CarinArr> negativespace, there's also beamer if you're wanting to do slides, that's a separate package
[07:16] <CarinArr> tomypreach, is that a laptop?
[07:16] <Tomypreach> yes
[07:17] <CarinArr> tomypreach, you may want to have a look at http://www.linux-laptop.net/

[07:17] <sebastien_> bonjour
[07:17] <Tomypreach> Carin - did all ready -
[07:17] <V4Vendetta> !fr
[07:17] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:17] <Tomypreach> couldnt find anythin on ubuntu
[07:17] <CarinArr> tomypreach, heh, okay, er well i'm all out of ideas. I haven't had any problems getting my laptops running nicely
[07:18] <milamber> still have got the same problem, i'l try to play an mpg file wich is on the inet, totem-gstreamerm says, not the right plugins.. now all the totem plugins are installed.. who knows
[07:18] <PuMpErNiCkLe> milamber: I recommend totem-xine.
[07:18] <Tomypreach> carin, sure thing. kool - im gonna give it a go. but i should leave my windows were it is so fare
[07:18] <CarinArr> tomypreach, yeah that's probably a good idea
[07:19] <Tomypreach> hehe -
[07:19] <blanky> hey guys, we all love ubuntu, but aside from that, which distro do you guys prefer, SuSe 10 or Fedora Core 4
[07:19] <CarinArr> at least you'll be able to log into windows, and download stuff if you need any extras
[07:19] <CarinArr> blanky, ack.. choosing between two evils
[07:19] <milamber> and is it p[ossibl;e to integrate totem xine into firefox ?
[07:19] <blanky> CarinArr, hehe, im not gonna use them
[07:19] <blanky> I'm making a poll :D
[07:19] <CarinArr> blanky, we were forced to use suse in the office for a good while
[07:19] <Tomypreach> another Q, i got a Usb ekstern HD , im a able to mounth it in fat32 ?
[07:19] <PuMpErNiCkLe> blanky: Never tried Suse, but Fedora was a massive PITA for me.  Also, this should be asked in #ubuntu-offtopic, not here.
[07:20] <V4Vendetta> arch linux is nice
[07:20] <V4Vendetta> but ubuntu is god
[07:20] <milamber> yes it is possible..
[07:20] <milamber> thnx pumpernickle
[07:20] <PuMpErNiCkLe> milamber: np :)
[07:20] <LoCusF> !mbr

[07:20] <PreakSter> !root
[07:20] <blanky> Okay :( , massive PITA ?
[07:20] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[07:20] <blanky> PuMpErNiCkLe, PITA?
[07:20] <V4Vendetta> pain in the ass
[07:20] <PuMpErNiCkLe> blanky: pain in the ass :o
[07:21] <blanky> oh haha, yeah fedora likes to get messed up
[07:21] <milamber> pumpernickle, what are the benifits of xine instead of gstreamer ? i've always used gsareamer
[07:21] <V4Vendetta> milamber, it's just coded better
[07:21] <PuMpErNiCkLe> milamber: Format support, mainly - I haven't looked at it in detail, it just works. :)
[07:21] <milamber> k thnx sounds reasonablo enough for me :D
[07:21] <Tomypreach> bye
[07:21] <evil_cow> heeeeeeeep
[07:22] <bjornkri> Question: I have two network drives on a windows computer. I used to have them in fstab, but Ubuntu is on my laptop, so they're not always present. This causes it to hang when I'm away from home, so I removed those entries. What would be the best way for me to mount them quickly when I need them?
[07:23] <evil_cow> is it possible without acpi (acpi=off) ubuntu coud not found correctly my lnacard

[07:24] <lomtik> hey guys, how can I erase files from under Nautilus? Permission is denied for me.. Regularly, I am using sudo in command prompt
[07:24] <biloyp> lomtik, move them to the trash
[07:24] <milamber> r there wmv plugins for xine?,
[07:24] <wuzzy> Hi all! Where can i find the latest guide to installing Xgl and Compiz? I just installed Dapper Flight 5!
[07:25] <NegativeSpace> CarinArr Awesome. Thanks. So I want tetex-base?
[07:25] <tristanmike> !xgl
[07:25] <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/
[07:25] <CarinArr> negativespace, yeah, and if you find things are missing you can install the other tetex packages
[07:25] <CarinArr> should cover most of what you'll ever need
[07:26] <g0dchild> !mp3
[07:26] <ubotu> rumour has it, mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[07:27] <NegativeSpace> Is there TeX editor?
[07:27] <lomtik> biloyp, I've tried it and it says I do not have permissions... The folder in  /
[07:27] <biloyp> lomtik, do you right click and move the file to the trash?
[07:27] <lomtik> yes
[07:28] <lomtik> biloyp, yes
[07:28] <eFfeM> hi, I'm installing ubuntu on my new dell 9150 (first time for me installing ubuntu, but I have installed other linuxes), but I have two issues: first one is that my network card is not detected, decided to skip that, 2nd: I can't get beyond the partitioning step
[07:28] <eFfeM> any idea how to fix this?
[07:28] <bjornkri> lomtik, are you trying to delete system files, then?
[07:28] <evil_cow> biloyp LAN
[07:28] <evil_cow> - Broadcom 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN /Broadcom 1 Gbps Ethernet LAN
[07:28] <bjornkri> lomtik, i.e. files not in your home folder?
[07:28] <eFfeM> i have an ext3 partition on which I want to install (a logical partition that is)
[07:28] <gnomefreak> eFfeM: it sounds like a bad iso image
[07:28] <lomtik> yes, the files in /
[07:28] <lomtik> they are not in the home folder
[07:28] <biloyp> lomtik, u should only be deleting files in ur home directory unless u know what u r doing
[07:29] <lomtik> I've created a directory myself for disk mounting
[07:29] <tristanmike> eFfeM, why can't you get past the partitioning ?
[07:29] <lomtik> and then I wanted to rename it... but it didn't allow me
[07:29] <eFfeM> gnomefreak it does boot
[07:29] <gnomefreak> i wouldnt be deleting _any_ files unless you know what your doing
[07:29] <lomtik> also, I've created another dir, mojunted my ext3 partition there and would like to create a folder/modify some stuff... but I do not have permissions
[07:29] <gnomefreak> eFfeM: what does boot?
[07:29] <beuno> hi, I really want to help out in translation and in documentation. I'm already snooping around the launchpad, but I ran into the laguages available to translate, and there's no "Spanish (Argentina)" es-ar, how can I get that on there?
[07:29] <bjornkri> lomtik, that explains it, you don't have permission ;) There are some scripts available to run nautilus windows as root, or preferrably, you could change the permissions on those files so you can access them. Or simply sudo whatever you need to do
[07:29] <biloyp> hmmm lomtik, maybe using mc (midnight comander) mc will help but be careful
[07:30] <minimec> mini
[07:30] <gnomefreak> you cant finish partitioning it how is it gonna boot?
[07:30] <eFfeM> tristanmike in partition disks I have a logical partition on / but install the base system immediately fires up the partitioner again
[07:30] <eFfeM> gnomefreak, i mean't it boots from the cd
[07:30] <evil_cow> biloyp every single linux (around 5) found this card
[07:30] <evil_cow> include slackware
[07:30] <lomtik> Is there an option to tell Nautilus only to use ROOT when I am sure of it.. like popup the password box
[07:30] <lomtik> ?
[07:30] <igor_> hello, im new at ubuntu but not at linux... i just want to know... where do you get or give your root password? excuse me for bothering you...
[07:30] <NegativeSpace> Is there TeX editor?
[07:30] <gnomefreak> eFfeM: that has nothing to do with bad iso image
[07:30] <biloyp> evil_cow..then copy the driver to your new box
[07:31] <gnomefreak> eFfeM: check the md5sum of the iso please
[07:31] <beuno> lomtik: you need to actually set the root password:  sudo passwd
[07:31] <igor_> at the terminal
[07:31] <eFfeM> ok, this will take a little time brb
[07:31] <tristanmike> eFfeM, yeah, I agree with gnomefreak, check the md5sum to make sure no files on the cd are corrupt
[07:32] <lomtik> ok, once I will set the root password.. how can I do it with nautilus without changing permissions?
[07:32] <beuno> you want to navigate with nautilus as root?
[07:33] <bjornkri> lomtik, I'm not entirely sure, I saw something about this on the forums earlier today so it's possible... but again, I'm not sure that's the best way to do things
[07:33] <biloyp> lomtik, not sure if u can do that as root
[07:33] <eFfeM> gnomefreak, tristanmike, will check, this pc came crippled with some lousy os installed, need to find an md5 prog first
[07:33] <igor_> got it thank you...
[07:34] <gnomefreak> eFfeM: if in windows you need to install one
[07:34] <evil_cow> biloyp when i wrote ifconfig i says that i had eth0 which is almost ready :)
[07:34] <beuno> lomtik  http://www.ubuntuguide.org/#browsefilesfoldersasrootnautilus
[07:34] <lomtik> beuno, Thank you, I'll check it out
[07:35] <evil_cow> does anyone use Gygabyte W511A?
[07:35] <beuno> wlcome
[07:35] <lomtik> thank you guys
[07:35] <lomtik> !
[07:35] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, lomtik
[07:35] <biloyp> lomtik... I think you can configure the Login Setup screen so you can log in as root...buuuut be careful
[07:35] <biloyp> evil_cow, lol "almost ready"?
[07:35] <lomtik> I will also try to change permissions in sudo mode for the whole folder where I mount my partition!
[07:35] <lomtik> so that I can do anything I like there
[07:36] <biloyp> lomtik, yes configure the Login Screen Setup
[07:36] <biloyp> then u can login as root
[07:36] <SilvereX> anyone experienced empty strings instead of translations which contain non-english letters in gnome-panel?
[07:36] <SilvereX> in latest flight?
[07:36] <gnomefreak> hello not good
[07:36] <exlt> how can I tell why totem is being held back -> totem (1.2.0-0ubuntu3 => 1.2.0-0ubuntu3.1)
[07:36] <gnomefreak> use sudo nautilus if you want (root) in file browser
[07:37] <gnomefreak> lomtik: man chmod  that will take away your logging in a root stuff
[07:37] <biloyp> gnomefreak... I wouldnt do what I told him...but just saying it is available.
[07:37] <lomtik> biloyp, isn't it recommended not to use root login at all? they claim everything should be done trhough sudo
[07:37] <biloyp> lomtik, yup
[07:38] <jtickle> Anyone here been playing with Xgl/Compiz and managed to get things like Unreal Tournament not to run like crap?
[07:38] <lomtik> gnomefreak, I will try chmodding as well :)

[07:38] <jtickle> gnomefreak, thanks
[07:38] <soumyadip> the problem is that it didn't install properly and now it doesn't uninstall
[07:38] <Pieter_> or should i try #xgl-ubuntu as well? :)
[07:39] <soumyadip> anyone know what I should be doing ? (apart from filing a bug ) ?
[07:39] <gnomefreak> all xgl questions should go to xgl-ubuntu or ubuntu-xgl if its open
[07:39] <LjL> wasn't that #ubuntu-xgl anyway?
[07:39] <NoelJB> LjL: I found the problem with the packages.  Apparently, Ubuntu does not support emacs.  It is only available if you enable the Universe repository, which I don't normally enable.
[07:39] <biloyp> where can I find a list of all the available forums for ubuntu?
[07:39] <KnightSean> Hey
[07:39] <gnomefreak> LjL: they had 2 rooms open for a while there :(
[07:39] <Pieter_> it seems to be #ubuntu-xgl, i'll try asking there :)
[07:39] <Storkme> hi, my ipod is mounted at /media/ipod and it says it's a read only disk. i'm sure it shouldn't be. what do i do?
[07:39] <KnightSean> Is it possible to boot ubuntu without using a CD-R?
[07:39] <LjL> NoelJB: "emacs21" is in main for me
[07:39] <KnightSean> or CD-RW
[07:40] <Storkme> anyone??
[07:40] <biloyp> KNightSean..huh?
[07:40] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell KnightSean about install
[07:40] <KnightSean> o.O
[07:40] <gnomefreak> KnightSean: warning now to mount iso and install it is a beast
[07:40] <NoelJB> LjL: look at your repository configuration.  if you have universe enabled, remove it.  After the update, tell me if emacs is still present under editors.  It disappears for me.
[07:40] <Storkme> please someone
[07:40] <gnomefreak> !someone
[07:40] <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>

[07:40] <Storkme> if i can't figure this out i'm actually dead
[07:41] <biloyp> Stormke..is there a setting on the ipod itself u need to change?
[07:41] <NickGarvey> all of my system mail goes to a user (nick) but I wish it to go to root, how would I change this?
[07:41] <gnomefreak> Storkme: did you install any of the ipod apps?
[07:41] <Storkme> gnomefreak, i have gtkpod
[07:41] <zembee> I need to put JAVA_HOME into root's path so I can get a configure script to work.  Where is root's PATH set?
[07:41] <NoelJB> SilvereX: same SilverX who maintains one of the xchat distros?
[07:42] <Kootaphor> Can anyone point me to a "guide for utter linux/ubuntu noobs" for someone who's a general COMPUTER noob--like has used windows their whole life and doesn't even really get the concept of linux? I put ubuntu on a buddy's fried laptop and I wonder if there's something out there that can explain this better than me.
[07:42] <biloyp> Storkme, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=ipod&titlesearch=Titles
[07:42] <gnomefreak> what is an xchat distro?
[07:42] <Storkme> gnomefreak, every time i try and add a song it tells me the ipod isn't writable. this has never happened before!
[07:42] <NoelJB> xchat is an irc program.  the one I happen to be running right now.
[07:42] <eFfeM> gnomefreak, tristanmike, for some reason I repartitioned a little bit differently and it now continues installing; wrt the network card not being detected, I'll check what it actually is and see if it should be supported
[07:42] <phpuser> Storkme, maybe it's a permission related issue ? did you try as root to copy a file to the ipod ?
[07:42] <Storkme> yeah
[07:42] <LjL> NoelJB: still there for me
[07:43] <Storkme> i'm supposed to be going to a party in 20 minutes, i'm providing the music
[07:43] <phpuser> and root gave the same error ?
[07:43] <Storkme> and my ipod has been wiped
[07:43] <Storkme> you see my problem?
[07:43] <gnomefreak> i know what xchat is but its not a distro its a release
[07:43] <exlt> zembee: you can add it in /root/.bashrc
[07:43] <phpuser> yeah, merphey law, tough luck
[07:43] <phpuser> try finding a windows machine :)
[07:43] <gopi> Hi all, in the following page 2 deb links are mentioned, should I need to add them in sources.list ? http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/FreevoAptUbuntu
[07:43] <NsOmNiAc> why wouldn't it be gnomefreak
[07:43] <NoelJB> LjL: Weird ... I've done a reload of the repositories, and emacs only appears if and only if I have universe enabled, but then it shows up in the main area.
[07:43] <NsOmNiAc> it's a distrubution
[07:43] <phpuser> anyhow, root still give you permission errors?
[07:43] <eFfeM> googled a little bit, apparently the ethernet gigabit driver is not standard supported
[07:43] <Storkme> i don't know the problem!! it worked before
[07:43] <NsOmNiAc> and it's distributed
[07:43] <Storkme> this is so stupidly weird
[07:44] <Storkme> i'm going to die
[07:44] <LjL> NoelJB: sounds like a synaptic quirk to me...
[07:44] <zembee> exlt, thanks
[07:44] <phpuser> can you answer my question ?
[07:44] <phpuser> you arent coherent
[07:44] <exlt> zembee: actually, .bash_profile already has a PATH line in there to append ~/bin - add it to that line
[07:44] <phpuser> Storkme, ?
[07:44] <NickGarvey> I can't find an answer on google because the search times system mail linux are giving me a bunch of programs instead
[07:44] <gnomefreak> a distro intails that it will be sent and packaged for you  (xchat is packaged inside of a distro
[07:44] <Storkme> phpuser, it doesn't matter, i need to edit the database too
[07:44] <phpuser> it does matter
[07:45] <phpuser> i'm asking if it works or not
[07:45] <phpuser> why are you trying to avoid the answer?
[07:45] <phpuser> it might help figure how to fix the problem
[07:45] <gopi> Actually deb http://sitadelle.ath.cx/ubuntu-extras breezy extras       must be added in sources.list ?
[07:45] <phpuser> if it's a permission problem or somethign else
[07:45] <phpuser> DARH
[07:45] <NoelJB> LjL: possibly.  aptitude shows the same.  I haven't looked to see if they are related.  Aptitude appears to be a curses version of synaptics.
[07:45] <NsOmNiAc> httpdss://dictionary.reference.com/search?r=2&q=distribution
[07:45] <zembee> exlt, thats what threw me off, there is no .bash_profile in /root
[07:45] <gnomefreak> gopi: i have never seen that repo
[07:45] <exlt> ah - copy it from /etc/skel
[07:45] <NoelJB> LjL: I'll be doing a clean install, anyway.  see what happens.  Right now, I bootstrapped from the ubuntu provided VMware image.
[07:46] <joosep> is totem-gstreamer horribly broken in breezy?
[07:46] <LjL> NoelJB: at best, synaptic is a GUI version of aptitude... i don't know if synaptic has started using aptitude's database yet, but i heard it was going to
[07:46] <biloyp> Storkme, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=103071
[07:46] <joosep> videos look all mangled, it doesn't resize them correctly
[07:46] <NoelJB> LjL: ah, didn't mean to reverse polarity  ;-)
[07:47] <exlt> zembee: I use ~/bin all the time for scripts, so I must have copied it from skel or my user's ~/
[07:47] <gopi> gnomefreak: In http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/FreevoAptUbuntu   its specified right ?
[07:47] <iocc> what is like system-config-display named in ubuntu? Need to cfg x.
[07:47] <gopi> gnomefreak: Then how to get freevo ?
[07:48] <zembee> exlt, there is a .profile umm let me check it out  - thanks again
[07:48] <biloyp> anyone know of an app to convert assf files to mpeg or other video formats
[07:49] <NickGarvey> MEncoder is what you want I think biloyp
[07:49] <SilvereX> NoelJB, yes ;-)
[07:49] <NickGarvey> I have never used it thought
[07:49] <biloyp> NIckGarvey, was hoping u wouldnt say that lol
[07:49] <exlt> zembee: that should get parsed, as well - just make sure you set it up to include the existing $PATH like -> PATH="${PATH}":/opt/javahome
[07:49] <biloyp> NickGarvey, I was reading up on that and will have to try that sometime
[07:50] <gnomefreak> !freevo
[07:50] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, gnomefreak
[07:50] <gopi> gnomefreak: are u there ?
[07:50] <sstchur> Hi all.  I just installed "Breezy Badger" and noticed that the version of Firefox was old.  I went to remove it and apparently I inadvertently removed the entire interface that allows me to add/remove programs at all.  Any idea how I get that back?
[07:50] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell gopi about selinium
[07:50] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell gopi about Seveas
[07:50] <gnomefreak> gopi: read the one about Seveas  please
[07:51] <gopi> gnomefreak: ok thx
[07:51] <gnomefreak> sstchur: you cant remove ff1.0.7 from breezy too many things depend on it
[07:51] <sstchur> gnomefreak, I see that now... but I went into advanced mode and removed it anywa -- what do I do now?
[07:52] <V4Vendetta> well shit, if this is going to be that kind of party i'm gonna stick my dick in the mash potatoes
[07:52] <sstchur> gnomefreak, or perhaps the better question... what should I have done?  How would I change FF1.07 to the latest version?
[07:52] <Stork> HELP PLEASE!!!! my ipod wont let me write to it using gtkpod.. usually it worked but now it doesn't.. it gives me this error when i try and read the database: iTunesDB '/mnt/ipod/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB' does not match checksum in extended information file '/mnt/ipod/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB.ext'
[07:52] <Stork> gtkpod will try to match the information using MD5 checksums. This may take a long time.
[07:52] <NoelJB> LjL: do you have the ubuntu cd in your sources.list?  I wonder if that's my problem.  I wonder if I need to add a non-CD main.
[07:52] <SilvereX> gnomefreak, xchat distro is an alternative build for windows
[07:52] <Stork> please help
[07:52] <gnomefreak> sstchur: well what did it remove? you need to install it again and install everything else that was removed
[07:52] <SilvereX> gnomefreak, but maybe distro is wrong word in this case
[07:52] <lol> does the dapper flight 4 release have XGL included?
[07:52] <biloyp> Stork, did u follow that link?
[07:52] <NoelJB> SilvereX: then let me just take a moment to do what not enough people ever do in open source: THANK YOU.  :)
[07:52] <Stork> biloyp, i know how to use my ipod, it worked fine before, but now it just ~STOPEPD working
[07:53] <gnomefreak> SilvereX: its still concidered a program or version or app and i have it for windows
[07:53] <sstchur> gnomefreak, well I'm not entirely sure -- i'm not expert for sure, but there was an interface under the Applications menu in gnome that let me add/remove programs.  That entire interface is now gone -- I see no way to get back to it
[07:53] <biloyp> Stork, just trying to help
[07:53] <lol> does the dapper flight 4 release have XGL included?
[07:53] <gnomefreak> sstchur: do you have synaptic still installed?
[07:53] <sstchur> gnomefreak, It removed firefox for sure, and I guess some critical components as well
[07:53] <gnomefreak> lol: no
[07:53] <Chetic> I want to install Ubuntu, right. Should I get the development release or 5.10? I don't like downloading such an old version but I'm not sure about something you'd call "unstable"
[07:53] <lol> shit
[07:53] <sstchur> gnomefreak, how do I tell if I have snyaptic?
[07:53] <Stork> anyone PLEASE
[07:53] <lol> gnomefreak, is that imenu included?
[07:53] <gnomefreak> sstchur: things depend on ff ff doesnt depend on much
[07:53] <Stork> HELP PLEASE!!!! my ipod wont let me write to it using gtkpod.. usually it worked but now it doesn't.. it gives me this error when i try and read the database: iTunesDB '/mnt/ipod/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB' does not match checksum in extended information file '/mnt/ipod/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB.ext'
[07:53] <frank23> sstchur: start by installing the package ubuntu-desktop with synaptic. everything will be installed again
[07:54] <gnomefreak> lol: define imenu
[07:54] <sstchur> frank23, how do I install ubuntu-desktop w/ synaptic?  Is that an apt-get command?
[07:54] <gnomefreak> sstchur: command line type sudo apt-gt install ubuntu-desktop
[07:54] <exlt> sstchur: on the command line, run  ->  apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:54] <SilvereX> NoelJB, thank you too ;-)
[07:54] <gnomefreak> storlif noone in here can help try #ipod
[07:55] <Gomez> #ubuntu-it
[07:55] <frank23> sstchur: synaptic should be in the menu. you can use apt-get as well
[07:55] <sstchur> gnomefreak, exlt, frank23, ok, I will try this
[07:55] <SilvereX> gnomefreak, good ;-)
[07:55] <gopi> gnomegreak: What to add from that page?
[07:56] <Chetic> I have an athlon64, should I get the amd64 release then? I don't know if it's compatible enough...
[07:56] <ext8013> hi
[07:56] <sstchur> gnomefreak, that seems to be working.  So what is the proper way to upgrade ff 1.07 to ff1.5 in breezy badger?
[07:56] <carthik> How can I merge two mbox files, both for the same email account?
[07:56] <gnomefreak> lol: go to packages.ubuntu.com and see what dapper has
[07:56] <gnomefreak> !ff1.5
[07:56] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[07:56] <gopi> gnomefreak: Please tell me what to add so that I can get freevo
[07:57] <gnomefreak> gopi: did you read that site?
[07:57] <biloyp> Stork. did u use ur ipod with windows after u used it with Linux?
[07:57] <frank23> Chetic: its harder to get flash/multimedia codecs/proprietary software running with the amd64 release. I just use the i386 version instead
[07:57] <gopi> gnomefreak: yes
[07:57] <Chetic> Ah frank23, thank you for reminding me! I had completely forgotten
[07:57] <KonphuzeD> ok so im being forced to dual install a new box for my friend.  ubuntu and XP but my question is about which of MicroSfot file systems is best to use for the dual boot. I hear NTFS sucks
[07:57] <Chetic> Easy choice now
[07:58] <shiznatix> hey, I am trying to get my wireless working but to no avail so far. I have followed every tutorial but the command 'sudo modprobe ndiswrapper' always ends in a fatal error about the operation not being permitted. How do I fix this?
[07:58] <gnomefreak> gopi: im thinking you cant i was thinking of freenx
[07:59] <gnomefreak> i have all testing repos added to this box and nothing on freevo is comming up
[07:59] <gnomefreak> gopi: google for a freevo deb (if any)
[07:59] <KonphuzeD> seeing as I have a choice about which windows file system to put on I may as well find out which one is best under linux
[07:59] <frank23> KonphuzeD: well linux can't write to ntfs. I think the performance of ntfs is better than fat though. not really sure
[07:59] <gopi> gnomefreak: oh but how to get freevo... as u can see they have specified freevo for ubuntu in http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/Installation
[07:59] <jmoncayo> whats up
[07:59] <jmoncayo> i need some html help?
[08:00] <KonphuzeD> cant write to ntfs ! wow that is bad
[08:00] <gopi> gnomefreak: Under Distribution subpages: FreevoAptUbuntu
[08:00] <wickers> KonphuzeD, how is it bad?
[08:00] <KonphuzeD> is there an option besides FAT32 or NTFS
[08:00] <gnomefreak> gopi: that page didnt show me anything its an empty wiki
[08:00] <frank23> KonphuzeD: I still have windows on ntfs, and I also have a 3rd fat partition that both OS can write to
[08:00] <dabaR> jmoncayo: what help do you need. Come to #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:01] <nalioth> KonphuzeD: if you desire self-mutilation you can use fat16
[08:01] <KonphuzeD> no less than fat32 for me
[08:01] <gopi> gnomefreak: what do u mean, for me its showing !
[08:01] <Gomez> #debian-it
[08:01] <KonphuzeD> hasnt bill coem out with anythign since fat32
[08:01] <gnomefreak> gopi: that link showed me an empty page
[08:01] <KonphuzeD> i mean ntfs
[08:01] <wickers> KonphuzeD, winfs...
[08:01] <wickers> :p
[08:01] <gopi> gnomefreak: which page ?
[08:02] <gnomefreak> gopi: hold on im finding you  something
[08:02] <wickers> the metadata file system.
[08:02] <KonphuzeD> wickers, ggeeee that just wreaks of stability
[08:02] <KonphuzeD> ok so can ubuntu write to a winfs partition
[08:03] <FunnyLookinHat> Nope.
[08:03] <FunnyLookinHat> and you mean, NTFS
[08:03] <FunnyLookinHat> ?
[08:03] <wickers> KonphuzeD, lol
[08:03] <KonphuzeD> FunnyLookinHat, somebody said they came up with winfs
[08:03] <KonphuzeD> wickers, playing games with my  mind eh
[08:03] <wickers> KonphuzeD, you want a partition that both windows and linux can access eh?
[08:04] <Blippe_[Banned] > Fat or ext!
[08:04] <wickers> on the same box?
[08:04] <wickers> Ext2
[08:04] <KonphuzeD> yes
[08:04] <brodel> I want to try to get my desktop a bit nicer looking.. how can I change the color of the panel to match the kbfx button I just installed?
[08:04] <KonphuzeD> really windows can read ext2
[08:04] <wickers> there are a few drivers for ext2 on windows...
[08:04] <gnomefreak> gopi: there is only a tar.gz for freevo so you will need to compile it
[08:04] <Stormx2> Um, is there a way to limit connection speed in ubuntu?
[08:04] <KonphuzeD> hm wowzer
[08:04] <wickers> you'll need to install one.
[08:04] <milamber> 've got problems with installing mozilla-mplayer, dependencies, packages that r required ar'nt there example; mplayer :d
[08:04] <HymnToLife> KonphuzeD> write too
[08:04] <Blippe_[Banned] > KonphuzeD, you can use fat or if you add a driver to windows, ext2 or ext3
[08:04] <KonphuzeD> hey kewl
[08:04] <Stormx2> I'd like to limit my internet speed to about 32KB/s downstream
[08:04] <gopi> gnomefreak: ok but its possible right ?
[08:05] <gopi> gnomefreak: Is it very hard ?
[08:05] <KonphuzeD> so no installing winxp on ext2 or ext3 then
[08:05] <wickers> no...
[08:05] <gnomefreak> gopi: yes possible and yes if you have never compiled before it is fairly hard
[08:05] <Blippe_[Banned] > KonphuzeD, win only boots from ntfs and fat
[08:05] <gnomefreak> !mplayer
[08:05] <ubotu> it has been said that mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[08:05] <KonphuzeD> id rather make windows use ext2 on a data partition than have linux read a windoz partition
[08:06] <gnomefreak> milamber: sudoa pt-get install mplayer-386
[08:06] <Blippe_[Banned] > KonphuzeD,  fat aint really a winspecific fs...
[08:06] <HymnToLife> KonphuzeD> the thing is, Linux can read FAT/NTFS natively
[08:06] <gopi> gnomefreak: oh i see
[08:06] <gnomefreak> sudo apt-get *
[08:06] <sstchur> gnomefreak, So I got firefox 1.5 installed -- but is there now way to remove 1.07?
[08:06] <HymnToLife> while you have to install a driver to have win read/write ext
[08:06] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell gopi about compile
[08:06] <gnomefreak> sstchur: no
[08:06] <sstchur> gnomefreak, seems odd -- why is that?
[08:06] <gnomefreak> sstchur: on the top of that wiki it tells you to leave it
[08:06] <KonphuzeD> linux might read ntfs but cant write to it
[08:07] <gnomefreak> sstchur: ff1.5 is not made for breezy and wont be
[08:07] <Blippe_[Banned] > KonphuzeD and HymnToLife: reading to fat in linux works perfectly
[08:07] <NickGarvey> is there a way I can get rid of sendmail without losing mysql server too? when I apt-get remove sendmail-bin it wants to get rid of sql server too
[08:07] <Blippe_[Banned] > KonphuzeD and HymnToLife: writing to fat in linux works perfectly
[08:07] <HymnToLife> that's what I said..
[08:07] <KonphuzeD> fat32 is what ive always used for an M$/Linux drive but lookin for someting a bit more current
[08:07] <HymnToLife> KonphuzeD> what's wrong with FAT32 ?
[08:07] <Scunizi> Feels like I'm interrupting.  If so let me know.. I've got Wine .9.9 installed on Ubuntu and managed to get it to run the install for IE6 after downloading it.  Now I can't find it anywhere.  Unfortunatly I need it for one specific work site. Firefox or Opera emulation doesn't work.  Any guidance?
[08:08] <KonphuzeD> linux might read ntfs but cant write to ntfs
[08:08] <HymnToLife> enabling ext read/write from win is a bit of hassle
[08:08] <gopi> gnomefreak: Its written in C or Python ?
[08:08] <chx> Scunizi: is there a deb of wine.9.9?
[08:08] <NickGarvey> HymnToLife: it worked very quickly and easily for me
[08:08] <KonphuzeD> isnt ext2 higher performance and security than fat32
[08:08] <gnomefreak> gopi: i dont know what its writen in gopi install build-essential
[08:08] <sstchur> gnomefreak, any idea where i find the normal ff icon?  i'm trying to replace the default one in bb
[08:08] <Scunizi> No  I got it using Automatix
[08:08] <HymnToLife> NickGarvey> I had to manually mount my ext prtitions in win each time I reboot
[08:08] <NickGarvey> http://www.fs-driver.org/ScreenIfsDrives.html
[08:08] <milamber> Package mplayer-386 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[08:08] <milamber> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[08:08] <milamber> is only available from another source
[08:08] <milamber> E: Package mplayer-386 has no installation candidat
[08:08] <wickers> KonphuzeD, when used with unix permissions, yes.

[08:08] <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.
[08:09] <gnomefreak> sstchur: right click go to properties and click the icon it will give you options to use
[08:09] <HymnToLife> I'm too lazy to make a startup script fot it I guess :D
[08:09] <NoelJB> LjL: Thanks for your help.  I got it resolved.  I had the first of these too in /etc/apt/sources.list, and had to add the second: deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release i386 (20051012)] / breezy main restricted
[08:09] <NoelJB> deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted
[08:09] <CarlFK> are there any scripts that attempt to setup xinerama?
[08:09] <gnomefreak> milamber: did you follow the wiki?
[08:09] <sstchur> gnomefreak, I'm there... but i'm not seeing where to find the normal ff icon
[08:09] <KonphuzeD> the only thing wrong with fat32 in my 'opinion' is thats its from microsoft and has been around prior to many current files systems
[08:09] <nerv> i am trying to set up multiple user accounts (am using gnome). I have my account and one for my cousin. I always like to lock screen instead of logging out. So anyways, I put on the computer, log in to my account, hit switch user, log in to my cousin's account, hit switch user, and log back into mine and the whole system hangs
[08:09] <milamber> jup gnomefreak
[08:09] <gnomefreak> sstchur: the red one it doesnt have
[08:09] <NoelJB> Adding the second line and reloading the repositories cured the problem.
[08:09] <milamber> universe and multiverse is enabled
[08:09] <nerv> some weird stuff shows up onto the screen. i can't make it out what it is. any ideas?
[08:09] <gnomefreak> milamber: do you have multiverse enabled or do you have backports multiverse enabled?
[08:09] <sstchur> gnomefreak, red one?  I'm not sure what you mean
[08:10] <gnomefreak> sstchur: the flaming icon for ff?
[08:10] <sstchur> gnomefreak, yeah, the icon that you see on mozilla.org
[08:10] <gnomefreak> sstchur: not sure how you would get that i dont have it
[08:10] <Scunizi> chx:  I take that back.. You can get it through Synaptic, directly from the Wine page or Advantix
[08:11] <gnomefreak> milamber: please paste your /etc/apt/sources.list on pastebin s o i can look at it when i return
[08:11] <gnomefreak> brb
[08:11] <galata> I did!
[08:11] <milamber> bothbreezy backports multiverse gnomefreak, pastebin ?
[08:12] <sstchur> gnomefreak, found it under /opt/firefox/icons
[08:12] <gopi> gnomefreak: I will give it a try..... so tell me how to get that tar.gz file for freevo please
[08:12] <galata> question: is ubuntu like fedora, and skips support for mp3s?
[08:13] <Scunizi> Any takers on finding IE6 with wine in the system?
[08:13] <mkde> galata: yes, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:13] <galata> mkde: gah. thanks
[08:14] <chx> Scunizi: Advantix?
[08:14] <gnomefreak> milamber: you dont want the backports you want multiverse and universe
[08:14] <gnomefreak> !pastebin
[08:14] <ubotu> I guess 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 :)
[08:14] <Scunizi> chx:  I'll see if I can find the link for you. It'll install alot of stuff at your choice including Firefox 1.5
[08:14] <gnomefreak> sstchur: ty
[08:15] <zack_> yo guys
[08:15] <gnomefreak> gopi: go to www.sourceforge.net or org or com cant remember what one it is and search freevo
[08:15] <Scunizi> chx:  ment to say Automatix
[08:15] <zack_> umm, so i got a new laptop. Older compaq, no cd rom or any way to boot execpt hd and network
[08:16] <Scunizi> Chx: you know that one?
[08:16] <chx> Scunizi: no
[08:16] <zack_> im proudly now installing 5.10 breezy using a tftpd
[08:16] <Scunizi> chx: I'll look .. back in a sec.
[08:16] <gnomefreak> DONT USE _AUTOMATIX_
[08:17] <chx> zack_: nice! when i was in the same situation i dismantled the poor thing and copied the stuff on its hdd. and yes my old laptop runs ubuntu (ok, Xubuntu, but I hope that's forgivable).
[08:17] <Blippe_[Banned] > gnomefreak, preach on!
[08:17] <Scunizi> chx:  Here it is.. in the Forum's http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138405&highlight=automatix
[08:17] <zack_> only problem is the installer didnt detect my lcd screen, im wondering if im going to have problems, as i plugged in my old `17 inch mon to read the questions and stuff
[08:17] <gnomefreak> !automatix
[08:17] <ubotu> it has been said that 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.
[08:17] <TruthElixirX> I'm wanting to install Ubuntu on my laptop. I want to be able to dual boot between XP and Ubuntu. Where would be the proper place to start reading up on everything?
[08:17] <gnomefreak> Scunizi: do not ever advise someone use automatix in the channel
[08:17] <Blippe_[Banned] > Alternatives= easyubuntu among others!
[08:18] <zack_> i thought xubuntu was for xbox's
[08:18] <Scunizi> ok...  why is it a sticky on the Ubuntu forum if there's a problem.
[08:18] <FunnyLookinHat> Scunizi, because it blowzors
[08:18] <chx> zack_: then think again, Xubuntu is XFCE
[08:18] <zack_> ill look into it, i heard its just xfce4
[08:18] <Blippe_[Banned] > zubuntu= ubuntu + zfce - gnome!
[08:18] <gnomefreak> Scunizi: this is not ubuntu forums and ubuntu forums doesnt fix what it messes up
[08:18] <Blippe_[Banned] > zubuntu= ubuntu + xfce - gnome!
[08:18] <chx> Blippe_[Banned] : still not right.
[08:18] <zack_> lol :)
[08:18] <chx> oh, i need no graphic installer for a deb package. dpkg -i is ok with me.
[08:18] <gnomefreak> xubuntu-desktop
[08:19] <chx> yes yes
[08:19] <zack_> is it worth the try
[08:19] <chx> and my old Celeron 400 MHz w/ 192 mbytes RAM happily browses the net
[08:19] <wickers> where does gnome store it's default themes???
[08:19] <Scunizi> gnomefreak:  Ok... done.  Won't mention it again.  Any takers on helping me find installed IE6 to run under wine?
[08:19] <gnomefreak> zack_: xubuntu is great
[08:19] <zack_> i got 600mhz p3, with 192 mb of ram
[08:19] <gnomefreak> Scunizi: did you try wine file.exe?
[08:19] <zack_> lol why ie6 !
[08:20] <Scunizi> gnomefreak:  I would but I'm not sure what the .exe run file is after installing it with wine
[08:20] <clever> i find winelauncher is the only thing that works for me
[08:20] <megaherz> hi everyone, I have a question regarding network configuration
[08:20] <Scunizi> Clever: is that a seperate program or part of wine?
[08:20] <gnomefreak> Scunizi: same thing as the downloaded one i would think also you can use search files in the menu
[08:20] <zack_> does xubuntu have a netboot install?
[08:20] <clever> part of it
[08:21] <gnomefreak> zack_: not yet
[08:21] <gnomefreak> zack_: xubuntu will have an iso with dapper release
[08:21] <chx> xubuntu is just an ubuntu server install
[08:21] <zack_> oh well i have no cdrom for this bad boy so im going to have to wait
[08:21] <gnomefreak> chx: no its not
[08:21] <megaherz> everytime I reboot my computer I have to go to System/Administration/Networking and activate my eth1
[08:21] <chx> zack_: install ubuntu but at boot prompt answer simply "server"
[08:21] <LiGhTeNiN> Need help installing xvid, I get error: C compiler cannot create executables error while doing ./configure
[08:21] <Scunizi> gnomefreak:  can you search for files from within filemanger?  I haven't see it yet after looking.
[08:21] <chx> zack_: later, apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[08:21] <gnomefreak> chx: why? you can have both on system?
[08:22] <Makura> How do I get permission to make folders in the file system?
[08:22] <megaherz> is there a way to make it active by default at startup?
[08:22] <zack_> gahh little late for that im 79% installing base system
[08:22] <gnomefreak> Scunizi: places>search files
[08:22] <chx> gnomefreak: why what? ubuntu installed as a server does not install Gnome , KDE or Xfce.
[08:22] <zack_> i have done server install
[08:22] <gnomefreak> chx: right but you can install xubuntu after any install not just server
[08:23] <zack_> its great if u wanna choose a lite weight linux install
[08:23] <Scunizi> gnomefreak:  thanks.. I've only been at this for a week... huge learning curve.
[08:23] <sumbawa> hello everyone
[08:23] <gfxstyler> hi
[08:23] <sumbawa> i have some questio here
[08:23] <zack_> well my new laptop will do as a very good wardriver :)
[08:23] <gnomefreak> sumbawa: ask
[08:24] <G0SUB> Seveas ping
[08:24] <zack_> im buying an Orinoco gold card next week
[08:24] <chx> gnomefreak: yes but why waste your time? the quickest , leanest ubuntu install , as far as I know it, is server
[08:24] <sumbawa> how can i increase maximum open file in ubuntu? (ulimit?)
[08:24] <Makura> gnomefreak: How do I gain permission to create folders in the file system?
[08:24] <V4Vendetta> how do i find out how much ink my printer has ?
[08:24] <gean> how can i see the size of -say- all pdf-files in some directory ?! (more refined: all pdf's have more than 1GB... i'd like to start two mkisofs to two iso's, then burn them on 700MB disks... can i have the list of the first files that fit into -say- 690MB ?! up to now i started "mkisofs -o file.iso [a-k] *.pdf" and then the other ones, but some files have ``bad'' names, start with "(" or so and ``the others'' are not always easy to find...)
[08:24] <chx> zack_: Senao.
[08:24] <gnomefreak> chx: if someone installed default it make  no sence to tell them to install server
[08:24] <sstchur> gnomefreak, do you know what i need to use ubuntu to connect to a windows vpn?
[08:24] <zembee> Makura,  I use sudo to create directories - i.e. cd /usr/local; sudo mkdir newdir - that in a terminal window to create /usr/local/newdir
[08:24] <chx> zack_: Senao cards have a 200 mW amplifier in them and beat the shit for wardrive or anything
[08:24] <gnomefreak> Makura: sudo
[08:25] <gnomefreak> Makura: but to use mkdir you dont need to use sudo
[08:25] <Scunizi> gnomefreak:  will the search routine find files in a hidden directory?  The Wine/windos layer directory is hidden in /home
[08:25] <chx> gnomefreak: that's true for now, but there may be a next time of install :))
[08:25] <galata> mkde: I only find instructions for the Hoary and Breezy repositories, not Dapper. Will previous repos work?
[08:25] <Seveas> G0SUB,
[08:25] <gnomefreak> Scunizi: should
[08:25] <Seveas> pong
[08:25] <V4Vendetta> how do i find out how much ink my printer has ?
[08:25] <sumbawa> gnomefreak: how can i increase maximum open file in ubuntu? (ulimit?)
[08:25] <gnomefreak> chx: i didnt know how you had installed it
[08:25] <zack_> yea but are they supported under netstumbler
[08:25] <Makura> gnomefreak, zembee: Thanks
[08:25] <LjL> Seveas: RETURN
[08:26] <gnomefreak> sumbawa: explain please
[08:26] <galata> V4Vendetta: open up the printer, take out the ink cartridge, and shake it vigorously
[08:26] <G0SUB> Seveas what's the procedure to get the username & forward address of my @ubuntu.com changed?
[08:26] <Scunizi> gnomefreak:  thanks... It looks like it executed the install file, did a lot of stuff without any resulting errors then just disappeared.
[08:26] <wickers> Does anyone here know where Gnome stores it's builtin themes?
[08:26] <megaherz> does anyone know how to make an ethernet connection active by default (upon boot)?
[08:26] <V4Vendetta> galata, what a moron
[08:26] <wickers> or where themes go when you install them?
[08:26] <galata> wickers: yes
[08:26] <NickGarvey> if I want to send an e-mail to an address with no domain name what would I put?
[08:26] <Seveas> G0SUB, what's your launchpad ID?
[08:26] <sumbawa> gnomefreak: set the maximum simultaneous open files in ubuntu system
[08:27] <wickers> galata, ?
[08:27] <G0SUB> Seveas I didn't know that it's taken from my LP nick ... so now I have a email alias G0SUB@ubuntu.com which gets forwarded to an unwanted id
[08:27] <themachine> I think I just made an unbreakable crypto program
[08:27] <PuMpErNiCkLe> gean: Does something like ls -lhS help you at all?
[08:27] <gnomefreak> sumbawa: i didnt know there was a limit to how many you can open
[08:27] <G0SUB> Seveas b.ghose now ... but it's too late
[08:27] <zembee> megaherz, are u using the Network tool in System->Adminisration->Networking?
[08:27] <wickers> galata, where abouts?
[08:27] <Blippe_[Banned] > themachine, and...
[08:27] <Seveas> G0SUB, what was the address?
[08:27] <megaherz> zembee, yes
[08:27] <Seveas> ehrm, name
[08:27] <Blippe_[Banned] > themachine, I mean, more...
[08:27] <themachine> well, wheres a good place to make it open source?
[08:27] <G0SUB> Seveas g0sub it was earlier
[08:28] <sumbawa> like when you invoke the command ulimit -n from shell, you get the maximum simultaneous open files
[08:28] <sumbawa> gnomefreak: like when you invoke the command ulimit -n from shell, you get the maximum simultaneous open files
[08:28] <megaherz> and it seems everytime I reboot I have to go and do a activate operation again
[08:28] <Seveas> RCPT TO: <g0sub@ubuntu.com>
[08:28] <Seveas> 250 Ok
[08:28] <aquarius> Is there anything for ubuntu that will let me talk to Mac people with iChat over bonjour?
[08:28] <NegativeSpace> Are there any programs that can show me CPU usage, mem. usage, and just general hardware monitoring info?
[08:28] <megaherz> othewise the internet ppp won't come up when I call pon dsl-provider
[08:28] <Seveas> G0SUB, if you want it changed, poke elmo at the next CC meeting
[08:28] <G0SUB> Seveas yes, I don't want that ... i want b.ghose@ubuntu.com
[08:28] <gnomefreak> sumbawa: not sure
[08:28] <zembee> megaherz, check the little box that says 'enable connection' in the Properties dialog for your interface
[08:28] <sstchur> Anyone know what I need in order to be able to VPN into a windows box w/ ubuntu?
[08:29] <thegladiator> i have had this problem of not being able to copy avseq.dat from any of the VCD's that I have , it always says some  IO error
[08:29] <themachine> I mean as in a site, sourceforge, freshmeat where?
[08:29] <G0SUB> Seveas hmm, ok
[08:29] <galata> dammit
[08:29] <thegladiator> can someone enlighten me on this ?
[08:29] <sumbawa> gnomefreak: ok, thx
[08:29] <zack_>  does xubuntu come with some ubuntu themes or are they just the default xfce ones
[08:29] <Blippe_[Banned] > NegativeSpace "free -m" and top
[08:29] <V4Vendetta> how do i find out how much ink my printer has ?
[08:29] <gopi> thegladiator: yo lol
[08:30] <thegladiator> yo gopi ! surprise u were not there at ICC y ?
[08:30] <gopi> thegladiator: hehe thats because i am here
[08:30] <themachine> essentially here is the ciphered 2015 7138 4794 1829 3587 680 2016 7470 433 9209 3509 9192 5368 8983 6500 8380 9675 165 7633 7030 9939 2048 606 4509 7817 396 8093 4030
[08:30] <thegladiator> oh...what are you upto ? trying to repair tv ?
[08:30] <NegativeSpace> Blippe_[Banned]  Cheers. Is there any way to get it running on the desktop?
[08:30] <megaherz> zembee, it is checked already
[08:30] <bigfoot1> how come i can't play any audio? it says audio may be blocked by another program but no audio program is playing.
[08:30] <gopi> yes
[08:30] <bigfoot1> it was working fine 10 minutes ago
[08:30] <themachine> and the deciphered is "Freedom is without Opression"
[08:31] <thegladiator> ok cool
[08:31] <thegladiator> i have had this problem of not being able to copy avseq.dat from any of the VCD's that I have , it always says some  IO error
[08:31] <Blippe_[Banned] > NegativeSpace, i think there are a few gdesklets which does just that...
[08:31] <gopi> but i am not lol
[08:31] <Makura> Does anyone know if Wine has a default location for the C: drive?
[08:31] <thegladiator> NegativeSpace, Gdesklets
[08:31] <NickGarvey> makura, prob /mnt/windows/C
[08:31] <NegativeSpace> Blippe_[Banned]  I'm a newbie, I'm afraid -- how can I get one?
[08:31] <thegladiator> NegativeSpace, it has quite a few of them , you can putit in you dektop as candies
[08:32] <Blippe_[Banned] > Makura, somewhere in ~/.wine
[08:32] <thegladiator> NegativeSpace, Use synaptic seacrh for gdesklets
[08:32] <thegladiator> seacrh*
[08:32] <NegativeSpace> thegladiator Cheers dude.
[08:32] <thegladiator> i have had this problem of not being able to copy avseq.dat from any of the VCD's that I have , it always says some  IO error
[08:32] <thegladiator> has any one had the error?
[08:32] <gean> PuMpErNiCkLe : the size ordering is not so good in this case, since most pdf's have between 3MB and 10MB (some few ones have 60MB or just .7MB)... i think, b ut, that this idea can be improved: list them, start an own gawk script -say- that looks upo the correct information, computes the right place before 700MB and sends the mkisofs & cdrecord commands..
[08:33] <thegladiator> I cant understand why this is happening with VCD's
[08:33] <Makura> Blippe_[Banned] : Can I get there through the File Browser?
[08:33] <milamber> gnomefreak  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10009
[08:33] <zembee> megaherz, umm then I'm at a lost at this time and I need to leave - sorry :(.
[08:33] <gean> PuMpErNiCkLe : this means *work*
[08:33] <thegladiator> is there any one how see's VCD's ?
[08:33] <ailean> guys, i just loaded up the livecd of kororaa and the eye candy on it is lovely. i don't want to install that though - i'd prefer to keep ubuntu.  can i get the same eye-candy on ubuntu?
[08:34] <cnt_inc> hmm i thought that mplayer handled that
[08:34] <zack_> lol infomericals are so funny, i dont belive i spelled it right thou
[08:34] <cnt_inc> kororaa? does that use the debian core
[08:34] <ailean> gentoo
[08:34] <gnomefreak> milamber: put a # infront of line 001 and add the word multiverse to lines 19 20 35 36
[08:35] <shiznatix> hello, how would I remove ndiswrapper via synaptic
[08:35] <milamber> k thnx gnomefreak
[08:35] <thegladiator> i have had this problem of not being able to copy avseq.dat from any of the VCD's that I have , it always says some  IO error ...someone please ?
[08:35] <gnomefreak> milamber: after that run sudo apt-get update see if you get errors
[08:35] <ailean> no, cnt_inc, gentoo
[08:35] <cnt_inc> cool
[08:35] <Makura> Is there an equivalent in Terminal to the 'dir' command in Windows' Command Prompt?  Is it dir?
[08:36] <ailean> it is really smooth - and that's just the livecd
[08:36] <Seveas> ailean, dapper has xgl and al the crap around it
[08:36] <gnomefreak> Makura: what are you trying to do?
[08:36] <cnt_inc> that works but most use the ls command
[08:36] <ailean> projects your desktops onto a spinning cube
[08:36] <megaherz> does anyone know how to make an ethernet connection active by default (upon boot)? (sorry for re-msg, zembee tried to help but he had to leave...)
[08:36] <Makura> gnomefreak: Trying to find Wine's default folder for the C: drive and place some DLLs in there for a program to run
[08:36] <ailean> i'm not ready to be trying dapper Seveas - this machine has important stuff on it :)
[08:36] <ubuntux> how do I make a group that  when I add a user into this group, the user can have all permissions on the /srv folder?
[08:36] <Seveas> megaherz, 'auto eth0' in /etc/network/interfaces (replace eth0 with the real interface)
[08:36] <gnomefreak> Makura: let me ask this what does dir do in win?
[08:37] <cnt_inc> dir shows what directories are present
[08:37] <LiGhTeNiN> the picture is a bit fuzzy/noisy when playing a movie file, what might be the problem
[08:37] <Makura> gnomefreak: It lists all the folders/files in the folder you're in
[08:37] <gnomefreak> Makura: dir is same
[08:37] <ailean> Seveas, are you saying that it's only compatible with dapper or should I be able to install it on breezy?
[08:37] <gnomefreak> cd to the folder and type dir
[08:37] <Makura> gnomefreak: Okay, but is there a way to navigate to ~/.wine in the File Browser?
[08:37] <galata> wickers: /usr/share/themes
[08:37] <gnomefreak> or ls -a
[08:37] <cnt_inc> ls shows colors coordinating to what the file/folder is
[08:37] <Seveas> ailean, only dapper
[08:38] <milamber> no errors gnomefreak
[08:38] <gnomefreak> Makura: yes at top youll see view click it and show hidden files
[08:38] <cnt_inc> how do you enable the root acct. in kubunto 6
[08:38] <ailean> k, thanks Seveas
[08:38] <galata> Seveas: would hoary repos work with dapper?
[08:38] <Makura> gnomefreak: Thanks =] 
[08:38] <iocc> what is like system-config-display named in ubuntu? Need to cfg x from console.
[08:38] <Seveas> galata, no
[08:38] <gnomefreak> milamber: sudo apt-get install mplayer-386 if you were the one with mplayer and you have 386 arch
[08:38] <Seveas> iocc, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:39] <xstation> hey
[08:39] <galata> Seveas: I can't seem to find Dapper repos for mp3 support (legal in my island, just like marijuana)

[08:39] <thegladiator> gnomefreak, i have had this problem of not being able to copy avseq.dat from any of the VCD's that I have , it always says some  IO error ...any idea ?
[08:39] <Seveas> galata, w32codecs from hoary should work - for other things you may need to wait
[08:39] <gnomefreak> galata: what version of ubuntu do you have?

[08:44] <Seveas> Pygi, no
[08:44] <Blippe_[Banned] > jmoncayo, you must open up port 80 all the way down to your box (and make sure your isp doesn't block said port)
[08:44] <gnomefreak> xstation: yes not real sure what you mean tho
[08:44] <Pygi> Seveas: hehe ;) nobody posted on that theme topic...hopefully they will continue to obey ;) and I hope that those

[08:46] <Seveas> Pygi, not for wgetting ;)
[08:46] <glatzor_> iocc: choose "System| administration|Software Properties"
[08:46] <Pygi> Seveas: yes, yes, ok, not for wgetting :P
[08:46] <jmoncayo> can somebody help me???
[08:46] <ubuntux> how do I make a group that  when I add a user into this group, the user can have all permissions on the /srv folder?
[08:46] <iocc> glatzor_: i cant use the gui because X isnt working...

[08:47] <JoSeLoCM> join unbunto-es
[08:47] <Pygi> ubotu tell gnomefreak about gnupg
[08:47] <greenwom> I've got weird internet problem websites like yahoo, google, and gmail don't come up.  I can stream and view other sites like the ubuntuforums.  Any clue.  If it was just google I'd think it was on the other end but yahoo and google?
[08:48] <Pygi> greemwp: perhaps problem with https ?
[08:49] <NegativeSpace> gDesklets are awesome!
[08:49] <thegladiator> :)
[08:49] <greenwom> gmail also works through thunderbird but if I go out to the wen I get "server not found"
[08:49] <xstation> gnomefreak: GnuPG is a complete and free replacement for PGP -pretty good privacy
[08:50] <gnomefreak> xstation: oh dont know
[08:50] <rossknox> what kernel version does ubuntu use?
[08:50] <gnomefreak> rossknox: what ubuntu version
[08:50] <gnomefreak> 2.6 either way
[08:50] <rossknox> the latest stable
[08:50] <ipfw> rossknox: 2.6.x branch is default for breazy 5.10
[08:50] <gnomefreak> warty im not sure
[08:50] <tristanmike> rossknox, uname -r
[08:50] <Seveas> 2.6.12 for breezy
[08:51] <rossknox> thnx
[08:51] <gnomefreak> rossknox: 2.6.12-10 i think is latest
[08:51] <xstation> gnomefreak: thanks I guess nobody knows what gnupg is -nevermind
[08:51] <g0dchild> what package can i apt-get to install all the gnome-artwork?
[08:51] <iocc> Seveas: xserver-org still not found. Yes i did apt-get update first.
[08:51] <Seveas> gnomefreak, 2.6.8 2.6.10 2.6.12 2.6.15 (warty hoary breezy dapper)
[08:51] <Seveas> xserver-xorg
[08:51] <gnomefreak> ahhhhh ty
[08:51] <Seveas> but you need the ubuntu-desktop package
[08:52] <xstation> gnomefreak: thats for your suggestion to install it its great
[08:52] <iocc> with the new sources.list I can at least install gpm... why isnt gpm in by default? :/
[08:52] <xstation> thanks@
[08:52] <Pygi> iocc: just "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[08:53] <Pygi> iocc: listen to Seveas...
[08:53] <iocc> finally.. it works
[08:53] <Pygi> iocc: there...was it so hard to listen? ^^
[08:53] <HappyFool> gpm is probably old-school
[08:54] <iocc> Pygi: yes :/
[08:54] <Makura> Is there a Linux equivalent to Daemon Tools?
[08:54] <V4Vendetta> i love linux ;_p
[08:54] <Seveas> Makura, yes, mount 
[08:54] <Pygi> Makura: aha, mount ;)
[08:54] <Pygi> Seveas: how you do that smiley? :-/
[08:54] <g0dchild> is it possible to install the latest gnome release?
[08:54] <g0dchild> on breezy?
[08:55] <Pygi> g0dchild: go use gnome cvs if you really want
[08:55] <gnomefreak> g0dchild: breezy has the latest gnome release
[08:55] <Makura> Sorry, Linux noob.  My dvd-drive stopped responding, and this installation needs me to put in the other disc.  I'm not sure if it's going to keep doing this, so I may just make ISOs
[08:55] <ubuntux> how do I make a group that  when I add a user into this group, the user can have all permissions on the /srv folder?
[08:55] <thegladiator> gopi, hi u tere ?
[08:55] <KonphuzeD> hmmm let me check , can FAT32 run a 250Gig drive
[08:55] <Pygi> ubuntux:  chmod 700 ?
[08:56] <KonphuzeD> or is that just way to big for fat 32
[08:56] <Pygi> Konphuze: way too big
[08:56] <g0dchild> gnomefreak, ok
[08:56] <Makura> How can I make a drive stop being busy?  The eject command wont work. =\
[08:57] <Pygi> Makura: you are probably located in some folder of that drive
[08:57] <gnomefreak> G0SUB: 2.13 is the latest 2.14 has not been released yet
[08:57] <KonphuzeD> hmm so if a 250Gig drive is to be used for a DATA drive to be mounted by either WinDOZ or Ubuntu on boot up, then what file system choices are there?
[08:57] <Makura> Pygi: I don't think I am..
[08:57] <KonphuzeD> ext2 or ect3 ? any others?
[08:57] <Pygi> GOSUB: 2.14RC has been released...
[08:57] <G0SUB> gnomefreak when did i say otherwise?
[08:57] <V4Vendetta> KonphuzeD, you need it to be useable by windows AND linux?
[08:57] <Pygi> Makura: try unmounting it first if you are sure that you  aren't in andir
[08:58] <KonphuzeD> yes
[08:58] <iocc> great. startx clears the screen and i cant switch to other console :/ all are blank
[08:58] <kyncani> ubuntux: google unix group user tutorial -> http://www.dartmouth.edu/~rc/help/faq/permissions.html
[08:58] <V4Vendetta> KonphuzeD, oh dunno then
[08:58] <Makura> Pygi: I can't eject the CD
[08:58] <gnomefreak> G0SUB: you didnt
[08:58] <KonphuzeD> the bastard is in the film production business
[08:58] <Pygi> Makura: well, unmount it first ;)
[08:58] <Makura> Pygi: The button nor the Eject command works
[08:58] <G0SUB> gnomefreak :)
[08:58] <Makura> Pygi: How? >_<
[08:58] <gnomefreak> sorry that was for g0d
[08:58] <KonphuzeD> fortunately he is a camrea guy vs an editor of some kind
[08:58] <Pygi> Makura: "umount /media/something"

[09:02] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Please be aware there are a lot of questions, but only maybe few who might know the answer for you. Please be patient. Your attitude may determine their willingness to help you.
[09:03] <gnomefreak> wlan-aargh: did you paste it to pastebin?
[09:03] <Pygi> gah, somebody changed my addition to ubotu :( no fair :(
[09:03] <gnomefreak> gopi: ok what are you doing?
[09:03] <Iceman> anyone know where you can laern to build a live cd base distro ... custom
[09:03] <LjL> !livecd
[09:03] <gopi> gnomefreak: Installing mmpython which is needed for freevo !
[09:04] <Pygi> Iceman: based on what? btw. #ubuntu-offtopic for things like this
[09:04] <cnt_inc> yes. pick up the book knoppix hacks.
[09:04] <ubushine> Iceman, check out slaxx
[09:04] <Pygi> LjL: this is not for this channel ;)
[09:04] <LjL> !tell Iceman about livecd
[09:04] <gopi> gnomefrek: its a dependency needed
[09:04] <Pygi> LjL: no, don' tell him...gah
[09:04] <thegladiator> gopi, what are you trying to do ?
[09:04] <Makura> Pygi: I don't see anything that would be in the drive..
[09:04] <LjL> Pygi: i'm not sure it wouldn't be for this channel
[09:04] <Pygi> NO, are you running something from that drive?
[09:04] <thegladiator> gopi, are you trying to compile a prog in python ?
[09:04] <gnomefreak> gopi: most dependenies you can sudo apt-get install mmpython   that doesnt work?
[09:05] <Pygi> LjL: well, he wants to make a custom live cd :-/
[09:05] <bwlang> suddenly my usb palm stopped syncing... i'd like to track down the trouble.  When i start a hotsync i see the usual lines in dmesg  telling me that it's attaching to /dev/ttyUSB1 - but that device does not exist... Where should I start looking?
[09:05] <gnomefreak> thegladiator: freevo
[09:05] <zielony> Hello I have libstdc++6 package broken, and apt want to remove half of my system, what can I do, to repair it without deleting 1/2 of my system ?
[09:05] <Makura> Pygi: I don't know how to check =\
[09:05] <Pygi> !enter
[09:05] <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!
[09:05] <Pygi> Makura: huh :-/
[09:05] <LjL> Pygi: yeah, and that's on the wiki... which makes me think it could be a valid question for this channel
[09:05] <NegativeSpace> How can I install new gDesklets that I've downloaded?
[09:05] <gopi> gnomefreak: no
[09:05] <Pygi> LjL: yes, making live cd out of ubuntu...but nothing else...
[09:05] <Pygi> Makura: huh :-/
[09:05] <bwlang> zielony: when you get a wedged apt-get system like that sometimes you can rescue it by installing the package manually (dpkg -i)
[09:05] <Makura> Pygi: What?
[09:06] <gnomefreak> gopi: ok there should be instructions in the INSTALL or README files
[09:06] <thegladiator> gopi, what code are you trying to compile ?
[09:06] <thegladiator> gopi, I might give a try
[09:06] <iocc> when will a new version of ubuntu be released?
[09:06] <Pygi> Makura: do you know how to make a account and start a ssh server? :-/
[09:06] <cnt_inc> i'm sorry, i never caught my answer. i think i got kicked berore i got a chance to see it
[09:06] <Pygi> iocc: depends...
[09:06] <gnomefreak> gopi: i have never compiled that program before but compiled alot of others and never did what you are doing
[09:06] <zielony> so I have to install that libstdc++, yes ?
[09:06] <gnomefreak> iocc: hopfully april 20
[09:06] <gopi> gnomefreak: I tried to install freevo like as it said in README by doing "python setup.py install" and it said checking for mmpython...   not found
[09:06] <gopi> please download it from http://www.sf.net/projects/mmpython and install it
[09:06] <KonphuzeD> alex116 konfuzed Im using a 300gb fat32 drive right now
[09:06] <LjL> Pygi: i interpreted "live cd based distro" as *ubuntu live cd* based. my interpretation might be wrong, but i assumed it since we are in #ubuntu
[09:06] <thegladiator> gopi, imas! have you registered urselves at freenode?
[09:06] <wlan-aargh> gnomefreak: yes i have ;)
[09:06] <Makura> Pygi: No, like I said, I barely started using Linux
[09:06] <bwlang> zielony: if that's the broken package you could try that...
[09:06] <bimberi> iocc: April 20th, although a delay is possible
[09:06] <iocc> gnomefreak: oki
[09:07] <Pygi> LjL: k, agreed...
[09:07] <Pygi> hm, k, sec Makura then...
[09:07] <LiGhTeNiN> Can someone help me with the codecs?
[09:07] <gopi> gnomefreak: And so I am trying to install mmpython after I downloaded it and in its README it said To install just run 'python setup.py install' as root.
[09:07] <bimberi> ubotu tell LiGhTeNiN about w32codecs
[09:08] <gopi> gnomefreak: And while doing so it said error: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.4/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)
[09:08] <gnomefreak> gopi: i found a tar for that also i didnt see an .py for it
[09:08] <gopi> gnomefreak: So am I not having latest python version or so ?
[09:08] <iocc> no unresolved symbols when I tries to startx now... but it doesnt work anyway. "Caught signal 11. Server aborting" ... that doesnt say much whats wrong :/

[09:15] <owca> www.youngerbabes.com
[09:15] <NickGarvey> sstchur: what file system is it?
[09:15] <sstchur> NickGarvey, ntfs
[09:15] <Pietras1988> pedofil ;P
[09:16] <NickGarvey> yes it should be read only
[09:16] <sstchur> NickGarvey, that is fine... I only want to read the contents, but I can't even view them
[09:16] <wlan-aargh> Seveas, it does use dhcp .. and i get an ip over the cable but not over wlan
[09:16] <thegladiator> sstchur, nts ?
[09:16] <sstchur> NickGarvey, Once I mout the device, It shows the owner as root
[09:16] <NickGarvey> can you log in as root?
[09:16] <thegladiator> ubotu, tell sstchur about ntfs
[09:16] <mordof> question: if i am logged into my server computer through ssh, how would i copy and paste a folder from my computers home dir, into my servers /var/www/ folder?
[09:16] <thegladiator> ubotu, tell NickGarvey about root
[09:16] <marlun> After a server installation the terminal only takes up half of my screen's height. It is positioned in the middle of the screen. Why is this and can I fix it?
[09:17] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell NickGarvey about root
[09:17] <thegladiator> you can log in as root in repair mode I guss
[09:17] <NickGarvey> I know that
[09:17] <thegladiator> guess*
[09:17] <shiznatix> Seveas: Intel(R) Celeron(R) M processor         1.40GHz
[09:17] <NickGarvey> I wanted to know if he could log in as root
[09:17] <NickGarvey> not if I could
[09:17] <thegladiator> in repair mdoe I remeber having loged as root
[09:17] <Seveas> shiznatix, sudo apt-get install linux-686; sudo reboot
[09:17] <thegladiator> sorry for the repeat but has anyone used VCD's in ubuntu ?  I dont understand why I can t copy avseq.dat type of files to my hdd , invariably I get a I/O error
[09:18] <gnomefreak> if your helping someone please use thier name that will cut down on the pms you get
[09:18] <SAM_theman> any suggestions???
[09:18] <Managu> thegladiator: pressed VCD or burned VCD?
[09:18] <SAM_theman> i also checked my alsamixer as wee
[09:18] <SAM_theman> *well
[09:18] <V4Vendetta> anyone know how i can change the icon for the network thingy
[09:19] <LiGhTeNiN> bimberi: I installed the w32codecs but the picture is still fuzzy
[09:19] <wickers> dudes! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/lickmeup/themeripping.png
[09:19] <thegladiator> Managu, the ones you rent from the CD rental shops ...
[09:19] <wickers> I just ripped the new theme and used it with my 5.10 install! :)
[09:19] <bwlang> marlun: try passing a different VGA mode (eg vga=normal) on the kernel command line...  you can try it out by typing e when you get the boot prompt.
[09:19] <gopi> bimberi: Now a lot more progress.... but looks like gcc i am lacking? Plz see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10012
[09:19] <bwlang> marlun: that's with grub
[09:19] <Seveas> woah
[09:20] <Seveas> pastebin crossed the 10000 today 
[09:20] <Managu> thegladiator: ehh, 'round here you can't rent VCDs -- only VHS and DVDs
[09:20] <thegladiator> Managu, movie VCD , yuou rent it from the video libraries
[09:20] <ubushine> V4Vendetta, check  /usr/share/applications/gnome-network-preferences.desktop
[09:20] <ompaul> Seveas, who'd a thunk it
[09:20] <marlun> bwlang: so when I get to the prompt I click "e" and then somehow tell it to use "vga=normal"? ok =) I'll test that.
[09:20] <thegladiator> Managu, its just like a film VCD , i think you can make it by burning as usual
[09:20] <marlun> bwlang: I am using grub.
[09:20] <bimberi> LiGhTeNiN: sorry, all I saw was "Can someone help me with the codecs?", unsure after that
[09:21] <gopi> bimberi: Can u plz look at that site? should I install gcc ?
[09:21] <bimberi> gopi: ok, now install build-essential
[09:21] <bimberi> gopi: (which includes gcc) :)
[09:21] <thegladiator> gopi,sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:21] <Seveas> ompaul, no irc exploiters in the last 2 days
[09:21] <bwlang> marlun: typing e will let you Edit the boot prompt... just add vga=normal in there (which will turn off the graphical boot)
[09:22] <gopi> okay !
[09:22] <ompaul> Seveas, this is not a bad thing
[09:22] <Seveas> somehow I still have hopes for humanity
[09:22] <ompaul> Seveas, you wish
[09:22] <Seveas> ompaul, ignorance is bliss
[09:22] <Managu> thegladiator: you shouldn't have any problem copying the avdat file; VCDs are normal iso's.  I'd suspect hardware trouble.  Scratched disk?  Bad burn (if CD-R, and not factory pressed)?  Faulty drive?
[09:23] <gnomefreak> gopi: install build-essential
[09:23] <HappyFool> scipy.stats
[09:23] <HappyFool> err
[09:23] <marlun> bwlang: ok =) thanks
[09:23] <Pygi> ompaul, hehe ;)
[09:23] <bimberi> gnomefreak: that's one serious lag you'be got there :)
[09:23] <thegladiator> Managu, what do you mean by  factory pressed ? These cd's do have the film's preview imprinted on them
[09:23] <bimberi> *you've
[09:23] <gnomefreak> bimberi: was doing something else :(
[09:23] <iocc> :( I hope FC5 that are released next week will work better on this laptop...
[09:23] <Managu> thegladiator: ever make your own data cds?
[09:23] <zack_> does anyone know what repositor xubuntu-desktop package is in, so i dont have to type all these mirors out
[09:23] <mem0> Hi. When I select some text, the selection in brown, how can I change the color?
[09:24] <thegladiator> Managu, yeah I do that ...
[09:24] <thegladiator> Managu, they have no problems
[09:24] <ompaul> iocc, please head into #ubuntu+1 which is for discussion of same
[09:24] <gnomefreak> iocc: first off fc5 is being held back second use #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[09:24] <Managu> thegladiator: those are burned.   Pressed are the type you'd buy in a store with stuff already on them.  They're made by different processes (burned CDs are a bit less reliable, on the whole)
[09:24] <cyphase> woohoo! Flight 5 is *actually* out
[09:24] <gnomefreak> !info xubuntu-desktop
[09:24] <gopi> bimberi: It installed gcc and then I did try to install mmpython and following was displayed.... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10013
[09:24] <ubotu> xubuntu-desktop: (Xubuntu desktop system), section universe/misc, is optional. Version: 1.4 (breezy), Packaged size: 5 kB, Installed size: 32 kB
[09:25] <gnomefreak> zack_: universe
[09:25] <zack_> thank you
[09:25] <thegladiator> Managu, Ah perhpas thats the problem ... thanks
[09:25] <gnomefreak> yw
[09:25] <gopi> bimberi: was mmpython successfully installed or did it halt ?
[09:25] <shiznatix> Seveas: that kernel update or whatever did nothing
[09:25] <bimberi> gopi: no, the script needs to run as superuser - 'sudo python setup.py install'
[09:25] <Makura> Pygi: Back
[09:25] <shiznatix> Seveas: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper still gives the same error
[09:25] <Pygi> Makura: yes, I see...read pm
[09:26] <griffin_> Hey I have a question that for once does not deal with a OS issue
[09:26] <Managu> griffin_: 42
[09:26] <simpson> hello evry body
[09:26] <gopi> bimberi: oh sorry great !
[09:26] <thegladiator> griffin_, no point introducing that ... go ahead if u have a good one...
[09:26] <Pygi> Makura: do you see messages? :P
[09:26] <Marlun> I pressed "e" and was sent into a list of choices, now I'm not sure what to choose. (Writing this from the laptop)
[09:26] <Travis_> whats the command to look for new hardware?
[09:26] <gnomefreak> ubuntu-offtopic
[09:26] <simpson> oh ya pa de francophone?

[09:26] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[09:27] <Seveas> shiznatix, did you reboot
[09:27] <griffin_> Just looking to install some video editing software for home movies....LiVE and cinerella seem like the options.  What to you folks reccomend for Unbuntu
[09:27] <ubushine> lshw
[09:27] <Marlun> argh, I forgot the nick of the one who help med. =)
[09:27] <Lorvija> hey.. will dapper bring big changs to wireless network cards & their support? I got breezer laptop with d-link g650 pcmcia card and it's supported and works.. but keeps dropping the connection all the time... any idea if dapper could possibly fix it(newer drivers for example?) or if there is any fix already..
[09:27] <Gomez> #gentoo-it
[09:27] <Marlun> tswiah: was it you? =)

[09:28] <ubotu> if you wish to discuss the upcoming, in development not ready yet edition of Ubuntu please join the IRC channel #ubuntu+1 >>/join #ubuntu+1<<
[09:28] <shiznatix> Seveas: and chose the highest version kernel that was available
[09:28] <ompaul> Lorvija, ^^^
[09:28] <V4Vendetta> lol
[09:28] <Lorvija> ompaul well there's also question about breezy if u look carefully :P
[09:28] <sZ> how do you install the 'codec' needed for totem
[09:29] <Managu> Lorvija: it's not strictly a ubuntu issue.  Happen to know the chipset for your dlink card?
[09:29] <V4Vendetta> sZ, sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[09:29] <ompaul> Lorvija, from where i stand it reads like you need to know more about dapper
[09:29] <griffin_> Seveas, thanks.  I just dont want to get in over my head....but then again. that is the linux theme!
[09:29] <sZ> thank you
[09:29] <Lorvija> maddler hmm nope.. i guess atheros but just a guess
[09:29] <ipfw> rossknox: 2.6.x branch is default for breazy 5.10
[09:29] <Managu> Am I maddler?
[09:29] <ipfw> anyone in here using xgl ?
[09:29] <ompaul> Lorvija, if there was a fix one imagines you use updates so would get same and it would have disappeared
[09:30] <Seveas> ipfw, #ubuntu-xgl
[09:30] <zack_> were would the world be without people like gnomefreak
[09:30] <thegladiator> for wallpaper hunters...here is the one i uploaded to gnome-look  http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=36263
[09:30] <thegladiator> its pretty good one sothought of uploading
[09:30] <ompaul> Pygi, I think that one is for here :-)
[09:30] <Lorvija> ompaul well i mean some work around (: not necessarily updated driver......
[09:30] <Marlun> I'll write about my problem again so anyone can help me. I'm on a server-install and the terminal is not using the whole height of my screen. It only uses half, positioned in the middle. I was told to press "e" at boot prompt and add "vga=normal" but when clicking "e" I'm given a list of choices first (root, kernel, initrd, savedefault, boot) what should I edit?
[09:31] <Managu> Lorvija: You might look for the linux wireless faq.  Upshot is, you can probably get better performance if you're willing to muck around with ndiswrapper
[09:31] <bimberi> Marlun: kernel
[09:31] <rossknox> ipfw, thanks, i know this is a ubuntu room but what distros use 2.4.x? o is there a way to downgrade ubuntu to 2.4.x? I'm using gemu and it can only emulate that kernal on ppc arch. :-(
[09:31] <bwlang> Marlun: it's the kernel line that you need to modify...
[09:31] <Pygi> ompaul: what is for here? :-/
[09:31] <Lorvija> Managu  hmm okay, gotta check it then. Kinda annoying as the connection drops every 40-60 mins.. :/
[09:31] <Managu> Marlun: I don't recall how Grub works all that well, but you want to add something new
[09:31] <Lorvija> Managu thanks
[09:31] <CryoTox> quick question, where's the font directory located?
[09:31] <Managu> Lorvija: np
[09:31] <Marlun> bwlang: ah, theres the nick  ;P now I remember it.
[09:32] <Travis_> where in the WORLD are PCI devices located in /dev??????
[09:32] <ompaul> Pygi, well even here is dodgy the reason for the compiler version, at a guess :)
[09:32] <Travis_> I am looking where the infrared port on my tv tuner is located in /dev
[09:32] <bimberi> CryoTox: /usr/share/fonts
[09:32] <CryoTox> kkthnx
[09:32] <bwlang> Travis_: you need to learn about udev... i'm doing the same thing for my palm pilot...
[09:32] <Managu> Travis_: the answer may be "it's not there".  What are you trying to accomplish?
[09:32] <bimberi> CryoTox: or ~/.fonts (for the user)
[09:32] <Marlun> bwlang: how do I finish when done?
[09:32] <newtoubuntu> My question is asking whether there's a way to doenload things you get from a web browser graphicaly (GUI)
[09:32] <bimberi> CryoTox: np :)
[09:33] <sZ> hmm
[09:33] <ompaul> Pygi, it seems to me to be "taa daa" #ubuntu-offtopic where we all go off on tangents look up stuff get refereneces and chat about the reason stuff happens
[09:33] <ompaul> Pygi, s/chat/discuss
[09:33] <Marlun> bwlang: it says ESC to exit but does it save my changes then?
[09:33] <Pygi> ompaul: I am just randomly talking...I know that my opinion won't change anything...but currently, 4.x is NOT production ready
[09:33] <Seveas> Pygi, nonsense
[09:33] <Pygi> ompaul: ok, sorry once again ;)
[09:33] <CookyPuss> !botsnack
[09:33] <ubotu> thanks cookypuss :)
[09:33] <bwlang> Marlun: i think b for boot... but i'm going from memory - i don't boot that often ;)  you could always e again to make sure it saved your change... Once you get it right you'll probably want to modify /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:33] <Pygi> Seveas: yes, nonsense to you perhaps, but not to me ;) but no talk here anymore about that ;)
[09:34] <newtoubuntu> any help would be much apreciated
[09:34] <Managu> newtoubuntu, "yes"
[09:34] <newtoubuntu> How
[09:34] <sZ> cookypuss: sudo apt-get install w32codec did work, it gave me this E: Couldn't find package w32codecs
[09:34] <Managu> newtoubuntu, Could you rephrase your question?  I'm a bit confused by it
[09:34] <sZ> didnt*
[09:34] <Marlun> bwlang. ok =) this will only be changed for this boot?
[09:34] <CookyPuss> sZ, did you add the extra sources?
[09:35] <Travis_> Managu I am trying to figure out how to make lirc regognize it
[09:35] <sZ> no, what extra sources? lol
[09:35] <bimberi> newtoubuntu: i don't understand the question, the browser itself is GUI
[09:35] <bwlang> Marlun: yes - unless something has changed recently - that way you can't screw it up too bad by messing around.
[09:35] <Managu> Travis_, "it"?
[09:35] <newtoubuntu> I got a program (lime wire) in .rpm form off of Firefox.  I'm having troble installing it.  Do I need to use the terminal
[09:35] <CookyPuss> !easysource
[09:35] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[09:35] <Seveas> !tell newtoubuntu about limewire
[09:35] <Travis_> Managu the TV Card's IR Port
[09:35] <CookyPuss> sZ, do you have GAIM ?
[09:36] <Marlun> bwlang: hmmm didn't help still big black gaps in the top and the buttom.
[09:36] <sZ> yes
[09:36] <bwlang> newtoubuntu: don't do that... rpm is for fedora
[09:36] <Travis_> I ran cat /proc/bus/input/devices but it doesn't appear
[09:36] <Managu> Travis_, make/model of tv card?
[09:36] <bwlang> Marlun: hmm  are you sure the monitor is okay?
[09:36] <CookyPuss> sZ, AIM, MSN or what
[09:36] <sZ> both :)
[09:36] <newtoubuntu> oh realy, it said "linux"
[09:36] <CookyPuss> sZ, add me, FearTheTrain @ Aim
[09:36] <Marlun> bwlang: yeah, I got ubuntu installed on it up until some hours ago and I've also got winxp on it.
[09:36] <bwlang> Marlun: do you still see the fancy bootup messages or is all text?
[09:37] <newtoubuntu> Tahnx ubotu
[09:37] <Travis_> Managu Kworld RF878 I believe
[09:37] <Marlun> bwlang: fancy bootup? I'm on a server-install here, no gnome or anything.
[09:37] <Travis_> Kworld KW-TV878RF
[09:37] <NickGarvey> !tell nickgarvey about limewire
[09:37] <bwlang> Marlun: you could try vga=ask that way you know that you're adding to the right place...
[09:37] <cratel1> how do I find out where the config is that tells ubuntu to load in the ehci_hcd module?
[09:37] <Travis_> I don't care about the card part itself Managu just the remote part
[09:37] <Managu> Travis_, never heard of it.  LIRC site say anything about it?
[09:37] <Marlun> bwlang: I'll try =)
[09:38] <shiznatix> Seveas: Any other ideas on how to get my "FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (.....ndiswrapper.ko): Operation not permitted" error to go away?
[09:38] <kidem> Hey fellows, what is that i use to find like the latest packages, i used adept but it only show for instalce Firefox 1.07 and i want 1.5?
[09:38] <bwlang> Marlun: some versions have a fancy status screen that's in fb mode (no X required)
[09:38] <bwlang> shiznatix: sudo
[09:38] <bimberi> !tell kidem about ff1.5
[09:39] <shiznatix> bwlang: yes i use sudo, the command that is not working is "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper"
[09:39] <Marlun> bwlang: I installed from the latest dapper cd :P. Whats "fb" in fb mode?
[09:39] <cratel1> how can I blacklist a module?
[09:39] <bwlang> Marlun: framebuffer... it's graphics instead of text - looks gold on black instead of white on black.
[09:39] <ompaul> !dapper
[09:40] <bwlang> shiznatix: sorry - i didn't follow the whole conversation... and I don't know much about ndiswrapper - probably should have kept my mouth shut ;)
[09:40] <dylan__> is there a good speech-to-text interface that i can use for linux?
[09:40] <Marlun> bwlang: ah ok, ok now I'm given a list of choices 80x25, 80x60, 132x44, etc... wonder which one I should choose :)
[09:41] <bwlang> Marlun: doesn't matter - just try one and see if you get a better result
[09:41] <bwlang> Marlun: 80x25 is safe
[09:41] <bimberi> dylan__: there is festival. Good?  Hm.
[09:42] <jon__> has anyone experienced problems with random window closses?
[09:42] <SAM_theman> yo how come my convert won't work???
[09:42] <SAM_theman> convert -resize 640x480 -colors 14 wallpaper.png splashimage.xpm && gzip splashimage.xpm
[09:42] <newtoubuntu> when I try to runlime.sh nothing happens
[09:42] <newtoubuntu> help?
[09:43] <Managu> shiznatix, anything in /var/log/messages when you run sudo modprobe ndiswrapper ?
[09:43] <bimberi> SAM_theman: any error?
[09:43] <SAM_theman> yo u trying to install limewire?
[09:43] <Seveas> SAM_theman, 640x400

[09:43] <newtoubuntu> Sam: yes I am
[09:43] <SAM_theman> go my friend
[09:44] <Genfoo> SAM_theman, http://gtk-gnutella.sf.net
[09:44] <SAM_theman> http://www.ubuntuguide.org/#limewire
[09:44] <Genfoo> better than limewire, native, more efficient
[09:44] <mivecz>  how i know what version i use
[09:44] <SAM_theman> bash: convert: command not found
[09:44] <newtoubuntu> you don't like limewire, OK
[09:44] <Genfoo> :-)
[09:45] <Genfoo> newtoubuntu, yeah, try gtk-gnutella
[09:45] <bimberi> SAM_theman: install imagemagick
[09:45] <Genfoo> I can help you set it up
[09:45] <gopi> bimberi: Unable to run "sdl-config". Please make sure a development version of SDL is installed.
[09:45] <Genfoo> :-)
[09:45] <gopi> bimberi: What to do ?
[09:46] <dylan__> bimberi, does that do speech to text?  or just text to speech?
[09:46] <gnomefreak> gopi: you need the src repos iirc
[09:46] <Marlun> bwlang: when I find the write one, can I just add vga=number in the /boot/grub/menu.lst then?
[09:46] <bimberi> dylan__: only speech to text
[09:47] <gopi> gnomefreak: can u help me how to get it ?
[09:47] <flex23> hola
[09:47] <bwlang> Marlun: yep
[09:47] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell gopi about easysource
[09:47] <bimberi> gopi: ok, there are a number of sdl packages in the repos, i would try libsdl1.2-dev first
[09:47] <GCRaya> i am a newbie could someone give me some quick help with installing ubuntu?
[09:47] <SAM_theman> ok i am back
[09:47] <anarcat> hello
[09:47] <thegladiator> anarcat, hi
[09:47] <bwlang> Marlun: there's some magic with update-grub - so make sure you read the comment in there so you don't lose your changes.
[09:48] <Marlun> bwlang: ok =)
[09:48] <anarcat> hello thegladiator
[09:48] <gopi> bimberi: sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev ... is it ok ?
[09:48] <bimberi> gopi: looks good :)
[09:48] <Managu> Question: Is there any way I can arrange to get sound out of VMWare player (which uses OSS sound) and Cedega (my choice, OSS or ALSA) at the same time?
[09:48] <Makura> Can Gnomebaker make ISOs from CDs?
[09:48] <anarcat> what is the bundled irc client with a default hoary install?
[09:49] <thegladiator> Makura, it can
[09:49] <gnomefreak> anarcat: xchat i think
[09:49] <ompaul> GCRaya, read the note from the bot please
[09:49] <anarcat> gnomefreak, thanks
[09:49] <kditty> can i use .zip files on ubuntu?
[09:49] <gnomefreak> kditty: yes
[09:49] <bjornkri> Is it just me, or are nearly all the gDesklet scripts broken in some way? Might there be some packages I've yet to install?
[09:49] <tristanmike> anarcat, yeah, xchat
[09:49] <anarcat> thanks all
[09:49] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell kditty about zip
[09:50] <gnomefreak> well i thought you could :(
[09:50] <thegladiator> Makura, use k3b whch by defacto is considered the best burning software imo
[09:50] <GCRaya> when i try to run ubuntu from the OS selector it shows me the splash screen but then it shows me some text and at the bottom says"loading please wait..."
[09:50] <tristanmike> bjornkri, gdesklets is known to be buggy from time to time
[09:50] <GCRaya> how long should i wait?
[09:50] <Makura> thegladiator: Thanks, I'll give it a go.
[09:50] <NickGarvey> GCRaya: try noapic and nolapic
[09:50] <thegladiator> Gcool, boot time is like 70-80 seconds
[09:50] <NickGarvey> GCRaya: while you are booting
[09:50] <tristanmike> GCRaya, you shouldn't have to wait any crazy amount of time
[09:50] <NickGarvey> GCRaya: that happened to me on my laptop
[09:51] <corresponder> hi
[09:51] <corresponder> how to tell ubuntu to use 2 monitors
[09:51] <GCRaya> im sry what does noapic and nolapic mean?
[09:51] <cratel1> I don't want a module to automatically load on boot. How do I prevent this?
[09:51] <x3dre> Hi all :)
[09:51] <linuxlab> hi
[09:51] <corresponder> hi
[09:51] <gopi> bimberi, gnomefreak: Actually I am installing pygame and when I did the following it asked for that sdl........ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10014
[09:51] <kditty> ubotu didnt say anything, is he lagging?
[09:51] <ubotu> okay, kditty
[09:52] <x3dre> I am hunting around to howto run the live cd of Unbuntu on my Toshiba laptop . As the switches given on the F3 menu server loading the X-Server :o)
[09:52] <Makura> thegladiator: k3b can run on Ubuntu, correct?
[09:52] <kditty> he usually pm's me
[09:52] <NickGarvey> GCRaya: they are boot commands, using a live cd or such edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst file and toss noapic and no lapic somewhere in there
[09:52] <Makura> thegladiator: The description mentions KDE
[09:52] <NickGarvey> although I'm not sure how you installed..
[09:52] <GCRaya> i used an install disc
[09:52] <thegladiator> Makura, yes it will install the lib's needed
[09:52] <kditty> !zip
[09:52] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, kditty
[09:52] <Makura> thegladiator: Okay
[09:52] <thegladiator> ubotu, tell Makura about k3b
[09:52] <gopi> bimberi, gnomefreak: And so i am installing libsdl1.2-dev...... ok?
[09:52] <FlannelKing> Makura: yes k3b can.  But you'll have to install kdelibs
[09:52] <cratel1> !modules
[09:52] <gnomefreak> gopi: if it allows you go for it
[09:52] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, cratel1
[09:53] <x3dre> I have an M40 Tosh and cannot get it to run the X-Server ? Can anyone point me in the right direction plz ;)
[09:53] <orangey> hey all!
[09:53] <tristanmike> gopi, that sounds right, wont hurt you that's for sure
[09:53] <orangey> I have a regular install of ubuntu now.
[09:53] <bimberi> gopi, yes go ahead.
[09:53] <orangey> but I upgraded to an amd64 ..
[09:53] <Managu> cratel1, I've done that before, lemme grep, see if I can find it
[09:53] <orangey> can I just 'upgrade' to amd64? or do I have to reinstall completely?
[09:53] <GCRaya> how should i install it on my HD i have 10G of free space
[09:53] <gopi> gnomefreak, tristanmike, bimberi: okay :)
[09:54] <bimberi> gopi: if you get messages like that you can do a contents search on http://packages.ubuntu.com/ to find the relevant package
[09:54] <GCRaya> should i make that partition with a boot flag?
[09:54] <St_Iron> good evening!
[09:54] <gnomefreak> bimberi: dont you need the src repos to get -dev packages?
[09:54] <tristanmike> GCRaya, 10 gigs is plenty but beware, you can begin to have lots of fun and fill up quickly
[09:54] <Managu> cratel1, add the name of the driver to /etc/hotplug/blacklist, and it won't be loaded
[09:54] <Managu> Question: Is there any way I can arrange to get sound out of VMWare player (which uses OSS sound) and Cedega (my choice, OSS or ALSA) at the same time?
[09:55] <NickGarvey> does it say grub loading please wait GCRaya?
[09:55] <bimberi> gnomefreak: no, i think -dev packages have header files but not necessarily all the source (i'm not sure about that though)
[09:55] <bimberi> gnomefreak: .. so they're in the binary repos
[09:55] <cratel1> Managu: there is no such file as /etc/hotplug/blacklist. Should I create?
[09:55] <gnomefreak> oh ok
[09:55] <Jemt> Greetz. I have just installed Dapper Flight 5 along with XGL - and I'm impressed. Wow! Works out of the box! But I was wondering.. At the moment it runs on a PC with these specs: P4 2.53 Ghz, 1024 GB DDR Ram, Nvidia GeForce 4 [128 MB DDR Ram] . But even though the hardware is pretty up to date, it still dosn't run smoothly when I move windows - actually the window gets fuzzy and freezes, and I haft to move it several times to make it look right again. And
[09:55] <Managu> cratel1, errm, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[09:55] <Jemt>  transparency dosn't work either. But besides that, it works very well. It looks so cool when the menus fades in/out and when I switch to another desktop. - but now my questions: I'm I the only one with the "moving windows" issue? And how can I change opacity on a window? CTRL+Shift+'mouse scroll' dosn't work as it should. Also, what are the odds that I can run XGL on my laptop - PM 1.6 Ghz, 512 MB DDR Ram, ATI 16 MB Ram (bugger..). I don't need all the
[09:55] <Jemt> fancy effects when I move windows around.
[09:55] <GCRaya> ya grub loads and i can pick either ubuntu of Win XP but when i select ubuntu it doesnt boot up
[09:56] <gnomefreak> Jemt:  try #ubuntu+1
[09:56] <cratel1> Managu: I hate to tell you...it's dapper.
[09:56] <gnomefreak> or try #xgl-ubuntu
[09:56] <tristanmike> !xgl
[09:56] <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/
[09:56] <spiritz> I'm having problem with latest linux ati driver. I'm using kernel 2.6.15-17-686. I have been able to install the driver as usual, but this time it won't load properly. DMESG says fglrx "taints the kernel". What does that mean?
[09:56] <Managu> cratel1, is there a /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d directory?
[09:56] <Jemt> gnomefreak: Thanks :)
[09:56] <cratel1> Managu: nope. Nothing with blacklist in it. Let me see if there is a file anywhere with that name...
[09:57] <gnomefreak> spiritz: 2.6.15-18 is newest kernel and please dapper needs to go to #ubuntu+1
[09:57] <PhantomsDad> There does not seem to be any accessibility stuff on the live cd. :/
[09:57] <cratel1> Managu: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[09:57] <spiritz> gnomefreak: Ok, but actually maybe you can translate the meaning of "taints a kernel"?
[09:58] <Managu> cratel1, that definitely sounds like a place to try.
[09:58] <gnomefreak> spiritz: nope never seen it before
[09:58] <HappyFool> spiritz: ati is a non-GPL'ed / non-opensource driver; that is why it 'taints' the kernel
[09:58] <Managu> cratel1, just so you can cringe some more, you might (and... might not!) have better luck in #ubuntu+1
[09:58] <spiritz> HappyFool: ok, then this is not the error ;)
[09:58] <cratel1> Managu: is that a channel for Dapper?
[09:59] <Managu> cratel1, that's right
[09:59] <orangey> drake flight 5 is out?
[09:59] <gnomefreak> cratel1: #ubuntu+1 = channel for dapper
[09:59] <tristanmike> orangey, yesh, flight 5 is out
[09:59] <tristanmike> *yes
[09:59] <HappyFool> spiritz: that's right. it should always happen if you load the ati driver
[09:59] <G0SUB> tristanmike no, it's not out yet
[09:59] <St_Iron> no, fligh 5 is not out yet
[09:59] <gnomefreak> its downloadable and installable
[09:59] <St_Iron> no
[09:59] <tristanmike> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/dapper/flight-5/
[09:59] <spiritz> HappyFool: My ati won't work, but I can't find any error :D there's no error in xorg.0.log. This is crazy
[10:00] <gnomefreak> what do you mean no?
[10:00] <orangey> can I upgrade to amd64 with apt-get upgrade?
[10:00] <tristanmike> St_Iron, G0SUB, it is out
[10:00] <orangey> tristanmike: coolio!
[10:00] <Makura> In Synaptic, what's the difference between "Mark for Removal" and "Mark for Complete Removal"? o_O
[10:00] <St_Iron> interesting
[10:00] <thegladiator> St_Iron, It is
[10:00] <G0SUB> tristanmike the wiki is wrong about it ... ask in ubuntu+1
[10:00] <St_Iron> you have the truth
[10:00] <GCRaya> NickGarvey should i try to install it all over again
[10:00] <gnomefreak> flight 5 has hit the servers
[10:01] <G0SUB> tristanmike the CD ISOs are test isos ... a beta for alpha 5
[10:01] <Managu> Makura, if you only "Mark for Removal", some setup and options for that package can be left behind.  This can be a good thing, or a bad thing, depending
[10:01] <gnomefreak> orangey: no you need a 64 bit kernel
[10:01] <NickGarvey> not sure if that would help
[10:01] <gnomefreak> G0SUB: in a sense they are all test flights
[10:01] <Makura> Managu: What if I wanted to remove Gnomebaker?  What would be the best option?
[10:01] <gnomefreak> flight = test
[10:01] <tristanmike> G0SUB, ok, think what you want
[10:02] <CookyPuss> Makura, sudo apt-get remove gnomebaker
[10:02] <NickGarvey> GCRaya: do you get past grub?
[10:02] <Makura> CookyPuss: Okay.
[10:02] <orangey> gnomefreak: I know.. but why not have an upgrade path?
[10:02] <G0SUB> gnomefreak yes, but the flight 5 cds are not flight 5 cds ... they are pre-flight5
[10:02] <Managu> Makura: On the whole, it probably doesn't matter.  It might prevent trouble down the line to purge (remove completely) the package
[10:02] <bside> hi every1
[10:02] <Managu> Question: Is there any way I can arrange to get sound out of VMWare player (which uses OSS sound) and Cedega (my choice, OSS or ALSA) at the same time?
[10:02] <mikebot> anyone know how oi can see what is wrong with my audio drivers? or how i can reinstall them?
[10:02] <gnomefreak> G0SUB: no they are flight 5
[10:02] <GCRaya> Yes it says it is loading but nothing happens
[10:03] <tristanmike> gnomefreak, it's pointless arguing
[10:03] <Makura> Managu: Okay.
[10:03] <Managu> mikebot what sound card?
[10:03] <bside> can i get some assistance in 5.1 matters ?
[10:03] <mikebot> Managu, i don't know
[10:03] <tristanmike> gnomefreak, he's obviously not going to listen to reason
[10:03] <gnomefreak> orangey: i dont understand upgrade path you can upgrade the 32 kernel or install the 64 bit and go from there
[10:03] <G0SUB> gnomefreak bah! but people in #ubuntu+1 are saying otherwise
[10:03] <mikebot> Managu, actually, i don't even know if i have sound drivers
[10:03] <karen_> how do I fix my resolution?
[10:03] <tristanmike> G0SUB, then they are foolish
[10:03] <orangey> tristanmike: is there flight 5 kubuntu?
[10:03] <gnomefreak> G0SUB: your listening to too many people
[10:03] <gnomefreak> orangey: yes
[10:03] <G0SUB> gnomefreak possibly
[10:03] <mikebot> Managu, just they worked until someone told mne i should use easyubuntu, now they don't work, i.e. i can't hear anything
[10:03] <Managu> mikebot: ok, sound card would be a first place to start.  Are you running ubuntu atm?
[10:03] <tristanmike> http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/flight5
[10:03] <mikebot> Managu, yes
[10:03] <gnomefreak> G0SUB: your listening to Pygi too much
[10:03] <karen_> !fixres
[10:03] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:04] <bside> gnomefreak, how do i setup my 5.1 sound card ?
[10:04] <Managu> mikebot: at a terminal, run "lspci"
[10:04] <G0SUB> gnomefreak is he wrong?
[10:04] <tristanmike> orangey, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/dapper/flight-5/
[10:04] <orangey> gnomefreak: I dig it. but that means downloading a whole CD and "starting over"
[10:04] <Pygi> Gnomefreak: What have I done???
[10:04] <orangey> tristanmike: woohoo!
[10:04] <mikebot> !paste
[10:04] <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.
[10:04] <gnomefreak> G0SUB: they wont release a beta flight 5 since there is no such thing
[10:04] <tristanmike> orangey, enjoy :)
[10:04] <Managu> mikebot: look for "sound" or "multimedia" or "audio"
[10:04] <Pygi> GOSUB: what have I done this time?
[10:04] <orangey> Trihttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/dapper/
[10:04] <orangey> tristanmike: it doesn't find it.
[10:04] <mikebot> Managu, 0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio (rev 05)
[10:04] <orangey> Tristan: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/dapper/
[10:04] <Pygi> gnomefreak: FLIGHT 5 is officialy released
[10:04] <gnomefreak> you can not have a beta of a prebeta
[10:04] <gnomefreak> no kidding Pygi
[10:04] <G0SUB> Pygi gnomefreak says that the flight 5 has been released ... contrary to what you said a while earlier
[10:04] <SAM_theman> Thank God i gave my sexy ubutnu 30 GNB
[10:04] <Pygi> gnomefreak: lol ;)
[10:04] <SAM_theman> *Gb
[10:05] <Pygi> GOSUB: it is released ;)
[10:05] <Pygi> GOSUB: just wasn't announced ;)
[10:05] <gnomefreak> G0SUB: as i said you listen to too many people
[10:05] <tristanmike> orangey, hmm, you can install the ubuntu one then install Kubuntu from there, don't know, maybe it hasn't been sync'd yet
[10:05] <Pygi> gnomefreak: so you'r insulting me now :-/
[10:05] <Managu> mikebot: ok.  Now lsmod.  Look for "snd-(whatever)"
[10:05] <G0SUB> Pygi heh
[10:05] <Pygi> gnomefreak: and actually you can...it's called alpha ;)
[10:05] <G0SUB> gnomefreak you could have corrected him then
[10:05] <gnomefreak> no im telling him the truth you cant have a beta release of a flight since flight is not beta
[10:06] <edan> can any one give me the past bin address??
[10:06] <tristanmike> !pastebin
[10:06] <ubotu> well, 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 :)
[10:06] <Pygi> freaky: what's this then: "G0SUB: your listening to Pygi too muc"
[10:06] <walter> Just set up, what unix or liux based can I use?
[10:06] <Pygi> :-P
[10:06] <edan> thnx
[10:06] <gnomefreak> Pygi: flight 1-5 are alpha no such thing as prerealse of an alpha since alpha is the pre realse
[10:06] <Pygi> gnomefreak: there is pre-alpha ;)
[10:06] <gnomefreak> Pygi: sorry a typo it should read you listen to Pygi too much
[10:06] <gnomefreak> :)
[10:07] <mikebot> Managu, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10016
[10:07] <gnomefreak> take it to offtopic
[10:07] <Pygi> gnomefreaky: but anyway, it was wrong ;)
[10:07] <Managu> mikebot: yup, yup, looks good
[10:07] <CookyPuss> Uhh
[10:07] <mikebot> Managu, so it should be working?
[10:08] <Managu> mikebot: more or less.  Next thing I'd check is to see if the sound card volumes are too low (or muted)
[10:08] <ompaul> walter, sorry what do you mean?
[10:08] <mikebot> Managu, that was the first thing i checked, and none seem to be muted
[10:09] <Managu> mikebot: should be working then, yup.  (at the risk of offending): speaker plugged in the right place?
[10:09] <mikebot> Managu, hehe no offense; i'm going to try headphone and see if those work--don't know why i didn't yesterday
[10:09] <bside> my via82xx is drive me crazy
[10:09] <Martolod> do someone know there isnt the localization breton package for openoffice in Ubuntu ?
[10:09] <Martolod> The breton language exist : ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/devel/680/2.0.1-RC5/
[10:10] <Martolod> it works under gentoo but ubuntu doesn't have a package, why ?
[10:10] <NoelJB> Anyone know how to install NTP *without* 80 lbs of cruft?  I don't want perl and other garbage.  I just want NTPD.
[10:10] <bside> any ntfs reader for ubuntu ?
[10:10] <Managu> noeljb: as in network time daemon?
[10:11] <mikebot> Managu, uh huh--so it seems the problem was the speakers after all--they need to be replaced; thanks for the help
[10:11] <Managu> mikebot: lol, np.
[10:11] <ompaul> bside, read message from bot please
[10:11] <Makura> thegladiator: Where would I go about making an ISO from a CD?
[10:11] <orangey> hmmm. what are your thoughts on 64 bit ubuntu? It sounds like most people are saying NOT to do it..
[10:11] <NoelJB> Managu: yes
[10:12] <thegladiator> Makura, installed k3b ?
[10:12] <Makura> thegladiator: Yep. =] 
[10:12] <Managu> noeljb: well, I haven't any experience with that, but would ntpdate be enough for your needs?  It's bound to be a lot lighter weight
[10:12] <NoelJB> I ran aptitude search ntp, and looked at all of the packages.  Even ntp-simple tries to install perl crap instead of just the ntp daemon.
[10:12] <NoelJB> Managu: no, this is for a server, and yes I really want the daemon.,
[10:12] <logi_> anyone here good with smbfs?
[10:12] <Managu> noeljb: ahh, ok.  As I said then, it's beyond my experience
[10:12] <Goldfisch> NoelJB: Fallback position is to get the source package and build it yourself.
[10:13] <ompaul> Makura, if you have it gnome in nautilus right click on it and select Write to disk - if you have to assemble it I suggest gnomebaker or k3b
[10:13] <FlannelKing> orangey: I think most people say not to do it, because you can't get some libraries for it.
[10:13] <NoelJB> no worries.  just seems to be rather poor packaging.
[10:13] <HappyFool> NoelJB: looks like debconf needs perl. I'm surprised you can get an ubuntu system *without* perl
[10:13] <orangey> FlannelKing: that's sad : )
[10:13] <jonolson> orangey, The major thing i've heard against it, is no flash.
[10:13] <Makura> ompaul: I want to MAKE an ISO FROM a CD =p
[10:13] <Makura> ompaul: Not burn an ISO to a CD
[10:13] <NoelJB> Goldfisch: true.  but then again, I could also go with gentoo if I didn't care about packaging.  ;-)
[10:13] <orangey> jonolson: ok.
[10:13] <ardchoille> The only services I have running are: anacron, atd, cron, klogd, sysklogd and gdm. Does that sound good or should I shutdown some of those?
[10:13] <ompaul> Makura, ahhh so you want gnomebaker or k3b for ease of use
[10:13] <Managu> makura: from a command line: dd if=/dev/(cdrom-drive) of=myoutput.iso
[10:13] <Spec> irc.freenode.net isn't letting me connect :-/
[10:14] <thegladiator> Makura, he has it
[10:14] <thegladiator> ompaul, he installed k3b
[10:14] <ompaul> Spec, try chat.freenode.net
[10:14] <thegladiator> he needs to make an ISO image from a cd
[10:14] <NoelJB> HappyFool: Apparently, you can.  :-)
[10:14] <NoelJB> apt-get install ntp-simple

[10:14] <Goldfisch> NoelJB: Gentoo punishes those with slow CPUs. I tried it once on my Athlon XP 1800. Took all day to build X windows. If I had tried it on my Celeron 433, it would still be compiling to this day.

[10:15] <Makura> ompaul: Harsh. =p
[10:15] <FlannelKing> ban?
[10:15] <bside> Managu, any ntfs reader for ubuntu ?
[10:15] <bside> Managu, any ntfs reader for ubuntoo ?
[10:15] <ardchoille> probably just a +q
[10:15] <bside> ompaul, i cant
[10:15] <Managu> bside: you should be able to mount a ntfs partition without much trouble
[10:16] <Managu> Question: Is there any way I can arrange to get sound out of VMWare player (which uses OSS sound) and Cedega (my choice, OSS or ALSA) at the same time?
[10:16] <mikebot> so is ubuntu written all in python?
[10:16] <orangey> are there any other complaints against amd64?
[10:16] <jonolson> mikebot, What?...
[10:16] <Goldfisch> mikebot: What???
[10:16] <karen_> how do I install drivers for Nvidia?
[10:16] <thegladiator> Makura, check oyut k3b helps...there are many in google
[10:16] <mikebot> haha
[10:16] <mikebot> what is ubuntu written in?
[10:16] <mikebot> i don't know what python is, i just hear people talking about itr
[10:16] <Makura> thegladiator: Okay.
[10:16] <tristanmike> !tell karen_ about nvidia
[10:16] <cwillu> python is the preferred language
[10:17] <joevandyk> Can someone recommend a good PCI gigabit NIC?
[10:17] <cwillu> but there's tons of stuff written in tons of languages
[10:17] <Managu> mikebot: a little of everything.
[10:17] <Goldfisch> mikebot: Ubuntu is a distribution of open source packages.
[10:17] <joevandyk> or, recommend brands/kinds that i shouldn't get?
[10:17] <NoelJB> As I started to say: /msg ompaul a request would have been sufficient.  Different channels have different policies on what is acceptable to paste for illustration.
[10:17] <joevandyk> where can i go to find recommended ubuntu hardware?
[10:17] <mikebot> Managu, Goldfisch, ah okay,t hanks
[10:17] <bside> Managu, what shoul i use for ntfs ?
[10:17] <mikebot> does ubuntu come with a python compiler?
[10:17] <Makura> Managu: Where does dd if=/dev/(cdrom-drive) of=myoutput.iso put the ISO?
[10:17] <jonolson> mikebot, Interpeter,...yea.
[10:17] <tristanmike> mikebot, yes
[10:18] <NoelJB> Perhaps you might want to add information about  paste.ubuntu-nl.org to your topic.
[10:18] <Managu> makura: in the current directory; calls it "myoutput.iso"
[10:18] <lucasvo> makura: use the command pwd to see in which dir you are
[10:18] <mikebot> jonolson, tristanmike okay, thanks
[10:18] <Managu> bside: happen to know which device name holds the ntfs partition?
[10:18] <NoelJB> In any event, about this ntp packaging ...
[10:18] <mikebot> and is there a way i can make a folder, and everything inside it writable, without going to the preferences of each individual file?
[10:19] <Goldfisch> Actually, mikebot is not off his rocker. python will precompile .pyc files, to increase performance by not having to re-interpret every time, like certain other scripted languages.
[10:19] <Makura> lucasvo: It's making the ISO, I don't think I can.
[10:19] <mikebot> Goldfisch, haha, glad to know i'm sane
[10:19] <lucasvo> Makura: ok, then wait and use it afterwards
[10:19] <Makura> Managu: Where is ~$ ?  Is that Home?
[10:19] <cwillu> really more pretokenized than anything else
[10:19] <thegladiator> Makura, also try #k3b ?
[10:20] <cwillu> psyco does on the fly compilation and opimization
[10:20] <Makura> thegladiator: I think I've got it, thanks.
[10:20] <thegladiator> sorry thre is noone there
[10:20] <cwillu> pysco I mean
[10:20] <thegladiator> how is it Makura ?
[10:20] <bside> Managu, hdd1 and hdd5
[10:20] <thegladiator> jut for info
[10:20] <thegladiator> just*
[10:20] <lucasvo> thegladiator: why should one start up x for making an iso?
[10:20] <Makura> thegladiator: I used Terminal. =P
[10:20] <bside> and i have a serial ata too
[10:20] <Managu> Makura: "~" is a shortcut for Home in most shells.  Not sure about "~$"
[10:20] <cwillu> or maybe it is psyco, can never remember :p
[10:20] <thegladiator> lucasvo, how to do that using terminal ?
[10:20] <zF> !divx
[10:20] <ubotu> methinks restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[10:20] <Managu> bside: try "sudo mount /dev/hdd1 -t ntfs /mnt/hdd1 -o umask=0"
[10:20] <thegladiator> what program do you use ?
[10:20] <kkrizka_> does anyone know if it's possible to get the name of the current playing song in rhythmbox from command line?
[10:21] <thegladiator> bnot k3b ?
[10:21] <ramza3> how do I remove F1 to be associated with the open HELP menu
[10:21] <thegladiator> not*
[10:21] <gopi> while installing ZopeInterface I got, error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
[10:21] <dancingmonkey> sudo rm -rf what?
[10:21] <thegladiator> i dont know much about iso's
[10:21] <Makura> thegladiator: Are you talking to me? =p
[10:21] <joevandyk> is there a recommended ubuntu hardware list?
[10:21] <Managu> dancingmonkey: don't be mean =P
[10:21] <thegladiator> Makura, both of you , was wondering what you could do with terminal
[10:21] <devlin-7> is there a "control panel" in Ubuntu?
[10:22] <thegladiator> Makura, so k3b not using ?
[10:22] <NoelJB> devios: define "control panel"
[10:22] <NoelJB> er, devlin-7 rather
[10:22] <thegladiator> devlin-7, system -> preferences ...see that
[10:22] <Makura> thegladiator: No, I couldn't find the option, and someone told me a command anyway.
[10:22] <Makura> thegladiator: I think it worked..
[10:22] <Goldfisch> thegladiator: man mkisofs
[10:22] <thegladiator> thanks
[10:22] <bjornkri> What's a good SVG app?
[10:22] <gnomefreak> there is a gnome-control-panel but how to reach that in gnome im not sure lol
[10:22] <thegladiator> doesnt nero let burn ISO's ?
[10:22] <devlin-7> NoelJB: somewhere I can make hardware configuration changes
[10:22] <thegladiator> why does k3b have that feature ?
[10:22] <gnomefreak> thegladiator: yes
[10:22] <thegladiator> any idea ?
[10:23] <Makura> Managu: What does "dd: reading `/dev/cdrom': Input/output error" mean?  Did it interfere with the creation of the ISO?
[10:23] <thegladiator> doesnt*
[10:23] <tristanmike> thegladiator, nerolinux ?
[10:23] <gnomefreak> you can burn them on almost any burner
[10:23] <bside> Managu, doesnt work. my /mnt is empty i gave you my /dev identifiers
[10:23] <thegladiator> not ISO ...making an ISO as an image I guess
[10:23] <Goldfisch> !tell thegladiator about punctuation
[10:23] <Managu> Makura: could either be you reached the end of the CD (the iso is fine), or there was a problem reading the cd (trouble)
[10:23] <gnomefreak> thegladiator: no burner can make an iso it has to be made before you get it to burner
[10:24] <devlin-7> Ubuntu has me stuck at 640x480 and won't let me change it... assuming it doesn't see my monitor or video adapter types
[10:24] <Managu> bside: how about "sudo mount /dev/hdd1 -t ntfs /mnt -o umask=0" then
[10:24] <Makura> Managu: I assume it reached the end of the CD, because there's an ISO file here.
[10:24] <thegladiator> gnomefreak, oh thanks gnomefreak , didnt really know that one ...
[10:24] <bjornkri> !svg
[10:24] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, bjornkri
[10:24] <bjornkri> hm
[10:24] <Goldfisch> Making an ISO has nothing to do with burners. You can make an iso, mount it using the "loop" option, read it, ftp to others, all without using one piece of disposable media.
[10:24] <cwillu> devlin-7:   have your tried a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[10:24] <LjL> !listvals svg
[10:24] <Managu> makura: the command I gave was just a quick and dirty way to get an iso.  Might check that the iso is good
[10:24] <ubotu> Factoid search of 'svg' by value (1 shown): inkscape.
[10:25] <bjornkri> inkscape it is!
[10:25] <bjornkri> Thanks :)
[10:25] <Makura> Managu: Will do.
[10:25] <thegladiator> thnx Goldfisch
[10:25] <devlin-7> cwillu: yes, and I wound up re-installing Ubuntu...
[10:25] <ompaul> NoelJB, is ntp-simple any use?
[10:25] <Makura> What's the command to mount?  Mount name.iso?
[10:26] <cwillu> ??
[10:26] <bside> Managu, 10x is working. that is why you  get #1 in linux this year. i played with some distributions before but you are the one. thx guys.
[10:26] <mikebot> what's a good torrent site? piratesbay doesn't seem to be working
[10:26] <NoelJB> ompaul: see the paste, unless it didn't make it in.  ntp-simple tries to load all sorts of other things.
[10:26] <Jemt> How can I make my Windows key (Super key) work in Ubuntu? I need it for zooming support in XGL
[10:26] <cwillu> devlin-7:   did you change option in there?  typically you can just hit enter all the way through
[10:26] <ramza3> strange, F1 is not even part of the keyboard shortcuts
[10:26] <NoelJB> ntp-simple is what I would have expected to be workable.
[10:26] <Managu> makura mount name.iso -t iso9660 -o loop /mountpoint
[10:26] <Goldfisch> Makura: sudo mount -o loop /your_iso.iso /mnt/point
[10:26] <Managu> bside: glad it's working for yas
[10:26] <tristanmike> Jemt, it hasn't worked since installing xgl ?
[10:27] <Makura> Managu, Goldfisch: Thanks.
[10:27] <devlin-7> don't remember it was a couple hours and alot of panic ago lol
[10:27] <Jemt> tristanmike: It has never worked
[10:27] <Managu> Question: Is there any way I can arrange to get sound out of VMWare player (which uses OSS sound) and Cedega (my choice, OSS or ALSA) at the same time?
[10:28] <Managu> mikebot: (tongue in cheek) google!
[10:28] <tristanmike> Jemt, right, I'm not sure, but installing xgl should detect it, have you installed xgl now ?
[10:28] <Makura> Goldfisch: "mount point /mnt/point does not exist"  I have a feeling I was supposed to put something else there. >_>
[10:28] <Jemt> tristanmike: Yes
[10:28] <Jemt> tristanmike: Runs smoothly
[10:28] <karen_> why is synaptic package manager asking me for a CD?
[10:28] <Goldfisch> Makura: sudo mount -o loop /your_iso.iso /your_mount_point <--- get it?
[10:28] <tristanmike> Jemt, great :)  you can ask in #xgl-ubuntu or #ubuntu-xgl  as well
[10:28] <njan> Managu, esddsp might work
[10:28] <shiro_> alguien habla espaol
[10:29] <SAM_theman> brb
[10:29] <Jemt> tristanmike: thanks
[10:29] <mikebot> Managu, ah okay, thanks
[10:29] <FlannelKing> karen_: you probably have the CD repositories still active.  Disable them (and add the web-based ones, if you havent already)
[10:29] <mikebot> Managu, (for legal stuff anyway)
[10:29] <Makura> Goldfisch: Not the mount point part, no.  What do I put there?  What goes there?
[10:29] <Martolod> can i know why that packages : ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/devel/680/2.0.1-RC5/OOo_2.0.1_native_LinuxIntel_langpacks_deb/ (openoffice.org-br_2.0.1-1_i386.deb) aren't in Ubuntu ? There are all languages packs but there isn't BR
[10:29] <Makura> Goldfisch: Am I supposed to create a virtual drive or something?
[10:29] <Managu> mikebot: ehh, for some not so legal stuff, too, if you're patient
[10:29] <shiro_> dare ka nihingo hanashimasuka
[10:29] <FlannelKing> Makura: a folder that you'd like to mount.  Make a folder (empty) somewhere, and mount to it.
[10:30] <Managu> njan: yeah, that came to mind... Is there a package for esd?
[10:30] <Makura> FlannelKing: Ah, okay.  Sorry. =p
[10:30] <FlannelKing> Makura: no need to be sorry.  Now you know.
[10:30] <Goldfisch> Makura: A mount point is a directory to hang a file system off of. When you mount something, that folder is where you look to see what you mounted. Typically, people put all their mount points in the global folder /mnt.
[10:31] <Makura> Goldfisch: Okay.
[10:31] <CookyPuss> Makura, /media is another mount point
[10:31] <CookyPuss> Makura, example: /media/ipod
[10:31] <we2by_> hi
[10:31] <we2by_> I just got ati drivers installed with fglrx
[10:31] <Makura> CookyPuss: Ah, thanks. =] 
[10:31] <we2by_> but my screen is streched!
[10:31] <NoelJB> ompaul: see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10017 regarding ntp-simple
[10:32] <mikeazorin> what application for linux mimics apple's expose?
[10:32] <gopi> when I try to install ZopeInterface, Iam getting .... Dependencies/zope.interface-ZopeInterface-3.0.1/zope.interface/_zope_interface_coptimizations.c:73: error: previous declaration of SpecType was here
[10:32] <gopi> error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
[10:32] <mikebot> Managu, hehe okay
[10:32] <NoelJB> it makes no sense to pull in everything just to install ntpd.
[10:32] <Makura> And the command to unmount?
[10:32] <CookyPuss> mikeazorin, what does expose do?
[10:32] <gopi> what to do ?
[10:32] <Goldfisch> Makura: umount
[10:32] <Makura> just unmount /mnt/point ?
[10:32] <Makura> *umount
[10:32] <tristanmike> we2by_, is it fixable with your monitor's controls ?
[10:32] <Makura> Goldfisch: Okay.
[10:32] <Managu> makura: right
[10:33] <thegladiator> gopi, when sleep ?
[10:33] <joevandyk> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCards is fairly sparse :(
[10:33] <Makura> Goldfisch, Managu, FlannelKing, CookyPuss:  Thanks for the help. =
[10:33] <bside> Managu, how about 5.1 speakers on an via 82xx sound card ?
[10:33] <joevandyk> anyone know if LINKSYS EG1032 (gigabit nic) works  on ubuntu?
[10:34] <Managu> bside: not sure I can help you there.  I'm struggling with sound myself
[10:34] <bpuccio> what file (is it in /var/cache/apt some place?) has the list of all installed packages for a system?
[10:34] <benoitc> odes breezy cd contain madwifi drivers ?
[10:34] <binarydigit> no
[10:35] <Martolod> nobody know ?!
[10:35] <CookyPuss> Managu, whats your sound problem?
[10:36] <benoitc> hum k
[10:36] <Managu> CookyPuss, I want to run 2 programs with sound at the same time
[10:36] <CookyPuss> Managu, ahh,i never got that to work either
[10:36] <we2by_> I  just installed the ati drivers and my screen is strechjed
[10:36] <tolaware> hello everybody
[10:36] <tristanmike> we2by_, is it fixable with your monitor's controls ?
[10:37] <william> how do i kill frozen tasks
[10:37] <we2by_> my monitor controls??
[10:37] <FlannelKing> Martolod: I'd ask in the forums, they might know.
[10:37] <we2by_> I'm on a laptop here
[10:37] <Managu> CookyPuss: thanks anyways :-)
[10:37] <Goldfisch> I use "dpkg --get-selections > /my_package_list.txt" as a way to capture that information.
[10:37] <tristanmike> we2by_, oh, i don't know
[10:37] <tristanmike> !tell we2by_ about fixres
[10:37] <Goldfisch> william: kill -9 <pid>
[10:37] <william> where can i get the PID
[10:37] <CookyPuss> william, ps aux
[10:37] <Goldfisch> william: ps -ef
[10:38] <gopi> hurray !!
[10:38] <devlin-7> resolution fixed thanks guys
[10:38] <cwillu> william:  pkill <name> works too
[10:38] <goose> i <3 dapper 4
[10:38] <william> thanks cwill!
[10:38] <goose> and xgl =D
[10:38] <william> much easier
[10:38] <NegativeSpace> Any ideas what Firefox won't let me save an image?
[10:39] <tristanmike> goose, is your "windows" key mapped ?
[10:39] <CookyPuss> william, also sudo killall programname
[10:39] <mikebot> and is there a way i can make a folder, and everything inside it writable, without going to the preferences of each individual file?
[10:39] <goose> nope
[10:39] <Martolod> FlannelKing, yes i've done that but there aren't answer for the while yet
[10:39] <tristanmike> goose, for the xlg effects ?
[10:39] <gopi> To install Freevo, run 'python setup.py install' as root.  Atlast it was successfull ! So now how to start it ?
[10:39] <khxxm> what is a good compile program on this linux ?
[10:39] <CookyPuss> mikebot, sudo chmod 777 /dir/name
[10:39] <goose> tristanmike: yea i haven't gotten the magnify to work
[10:39] <mikebot> CookyPuss, thanks
[10:39] <Goldfisch> mikebot: Add "-R" to chmodd to make it recurse.
[10:39] <goose> tristanmike: but everything else works
[10:39] <tristanmike> goose, cool
[10:40] <goose> tristanmike: i probably have to do a setkeycode or something
[10:40] <SAM_theman> yo
[10:40] <milamber> lo there
[10:40] <SAM_theman> little help here my sound isn't working and i am getting this
[10:40] <Goldfisch> mikebot: Just be careful where you use that command. Someone earlier screwed up a system by putting "sudo" in front of that and applying to "/"
[10:40] <SAM_theman> configure: error: cannot find install-sh or install.sh in . ./.. ./../..
[10:40] <FlannelKing> Martolod: no idea then,  it's probably just an oversight.  No idea when the people who would/might know would be on IRC.
[10:40] <Martolod> ok thank you
[10:41] <milamber> questin any suggestion for an binary downloader, ive used newsbin en liked the gui and options, is there some alike for linux/ubuntu
[10:41] <mikebot> Goldfisch, hehe okay..what does -R do?
[10:41] <CookyPuss> milamber, wget ?
[10:41] <Goldfisch> mikebot: Recurse through subdirectories.
[10:41] <milamber> if possible one that supports nzb files :D
[10:41] <paxmaster> how would i install xmmsbar
[10:41] <CookyPuss> milamber, you just want a file downloader ?
[10:41] <paxmaster> i have the sources
[10:41] <mikeazorin> what application for linux mimics apple's expose?
[10:41] <CookyPuss> paxmaster, xmms for gnome-panel ?

[10:42] <LinuxMonkey> milamber yeah
[10:42] <mikebot> Goldfisch, ah thanks

[10:42] <CookyPuss> milamber, wget
[10:42] <Goldfisch> mikebot: Yeah. You can read the gory details on "man chmod"
[10:42] <t1nkkar1> how the hek am i supposed to get rosegarden4 to work o ubuntu 5.10...
[10:42] <milamber> cookypuss wget sup[ports nzb files ?

[10:45] <jaggy> I want to put an echo > /proc setting somewhere but it's better to know of the system init script thing for such little settings than to make my own I think
[10:45] <gopi> hi
[10:45] <FlannelKing> mikeazorin: you'll have to tell us what expose does.
[10:45] <Gerwin538> i've got a problem booting ubuntu, does anyone have time to help me ?
[10:45] <thegladiator> gopi, when sleep ?
[10:45] <thegladiator> is it workin now ?

[10:46] <NegativeSpace> Does anyone here use the FTB desklets?
[10:46] <bpo88reloaded> hi
[10:46] <FlannelKing> Gerwin538: it's best to just ask the question, instead of asking to ask.
[10:46] <CookyPuss> davidX-, gftp
[10:46] <thegladiator> davidX-, konqeror :)
[10:46] <FlannelKing> Gerwin538: or, in your case, describe the problem.

[11:07] <Unununium> Where can I find a package containing static libc?
[11:07] <lusepuster> Hi there - I've been searching Google (perhaps not patiently enough, but...) and couldn't quite figure: Is there a how-to to run an existing windows install on a seperate partition as a guest system in linux? Like Mac-On-Linux does?
[11:07] <_Felix> mike: so, do you have win too?
[11:07] <_Felix> karen_: explain the problem again, please
[11:08] <mikebot> _Felix, yeah, i have windows too

[11:08] <karen_> _Felix, I'm trying to get the correct driver for this, I thought I had the right one but, now I'm not sure.
[11:08] <LjL> lusepuster: that's usually not really possible (almost) if you intend to also boot that partition from bare hardware

[11:09] <Klohunt> I am trying to install the Java Runtime Enviornment, and im very new to Linux :( I downloaded the self extracting file jre-1_5_0_06-linux-i586.bin , but dont know what to do with it
[11:09] <NoelJB> ompaul: FWIW, the dependency comes from debian, and is only being passed along by Ubuntu.  Still looking to see *why* debian's ntp packages require perl.  other distros do not.
[11:09] <LjL> !tell Klohunt about java
[11:09] <LjL> !tell Klohunt about javadebs
[11:09] <_Felix> karen_: Well,
[11:09] <montbazin> CHAT
[11:09] <ompaul> NoelJB, interesting
[11:09] <_Felix> what's the problem with screen?
[11:09] <Klohunt> Thanks
[11:10] <HappyFool> NoelJB: perl is needed for of debconf. using 'apt-cache rdepends' is fairly useful in tracing dependencies
[11:10] <s|k> hrm
[11:10] <_Felix> people, think i'll go to sleep
[11:10] <karen_> _Felix, screen res is not working, display is very jerky.  I've done this before, but I don't remember which one it is...
[11:10] <montbazin> CHAT
[11:11] <_Felix> try all?
[11:11] <LjL> montbazin: what are you trying to do?
[11:11] <_Felix> mine worked automaticly after ubuntu installation
[11:11] <_Felix> no upgradeing... but it's geforce mx 440
[11:11] <montbazin> sorry i'm new to this list and I am just trying to find out how it works
[11:11] <mikeazorin> installing kdelibs for some kde games on ubuntu, computer completely frozen
[11:11] <mikeazorin> why?
[11:11] <LjL> montbazin: well, i can tell you that typing "CHAT" in the channel won't do anything ;)
[11:11] <NoelJB> HappyFool: the specific ntp package pulling it in is http://packages.debian.org/stable/net/ntp rather than others, and the file list doesn't imply why.  Perhaps you're right that it is necessary for a configuration script.
[11:12] <Unununium> Err, any clues on the libc.a thing?  I have a /usr/lib32/nptl/libc.a but I need a 64-bit one.
[11:12] <HappyFool> NoelJB: oh, right, -- didn't see that perl-modules dependency

[11:24] <ompaul> gean, ctrl and click on the ones you want for many individual files / directories if you want a block shift and click on first and last

[11:36] <thegladiator> thanks
[11:36] <ompaul> lusepuster, just do it and find out your stuck at this time - it should fixe itself - and please take all talk of dapper to #ubuntu+1
[11:36] <gopi> erUSUL: yeah I did that too...... let me show what it said
[11:36] <tristanmike> karen_, log out, log in should be sufficient, but sure, why not, I always perfer the reboot
[11:36] <thegladiator> i'll prefer to be a gnomer then
[11:36] <karen_> tristanmike, okay, I'll be back if it doesn't work
[11:36] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  paste me the output of 'host archive.ubuntu.com cwillu.com'
[11:36] <lusepuster> ompaul, this is a dist-upgrade from hoary to breezy :-)

[11:39] <lusepuster> mikeazorin, again you need the right codecs. Have you installed automatics?
[11:39] <mikeazorin> automatics?
[11:39] <Amaranth> !automatix
[11:39] <ubotu> from memory, 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.
[11:39] <ompaul> !automatix
[11:39] <mikeazorin> not if it wasn't on the restricted formats page
[11:39] <tristanmike> karen_, and you can't change it in System - Preferences - Screen Resolution ?

[11:40] <karen_> tristanmike, I'm putting ubuntu on a new computer
[11:40] <Amaranth> lusepuster: don't use it
[11:40] <gopi> erUSUL: seeing it ?
[11:40] <lusepuster> Amaranth, Got it, and I won't recommend it to anyone anymore :)

[11:40] <sHaDe> n8 all
[11:41] <gopi> erUSUL: are u there ?
[11:41] <Amaranth> lusepuster: the echo stuff makes it automatically say say to things when apt says "This will break your computer! Are you really sure?"
[11:41] <Amaranth> err, say yes
[11:41] <karen_> tristanmike, how do I get that again, and how do I get pastebin, it's been so long since I've had problems
[11:41] <durga> how  can i get evolution to minimise to the sys tray  ?
[11:41] <tristanmike> !tell karen_ about pastebin

[11:41] <pablo928> I downloaded bbips as a .sh. I can open it with "sudo sh "location of file", but the images I create are owned by root. How can I install bbips from the .sh file?\
[11:41] <erUSUL> gopi, you have to set some variables in the file. edit it. also you need to create a directory named /var/cache/freevo. you need to install some dependencies too. i think is to much work for newbie
[11:41] <lusepuster> mikeazorin, , but easyubuntu lets you easily install all the restricted foormats and so, I would guess the codecs would be there

[11:42] <karen_> tristanmike, now what did you want pasted there and how do I get that file?
[11:42] <erUSUL> gopi, have you tried to look for a prepackaged version or to use mythtv?
[11:42] <jacek> dziki

[11:43] <lusepuster> bumping my ol question again; is there an easy way to run an already-existing windows install as a guest system in Ubuntu, sorta like MOL does it on PPC?
[11:43] <orn> Howdy. I just updated to dapper drake, and oowriter is no longer installed and it says there's a dependancy issue. Anyone know what that's about?
[11:43] <gopi> erUSUL: yes mythtv I struggled a lot to install :(
[11:43] <erUSUL> gopi, you have to create it as root. with sudo.
[11:43] <tristanmike> !tell orn about dapper
[11:43] <gopi> erUSUL: Others like Zapper and TVtime viewer.... i am getting audio but no video :(
[11:43] <nalioth> orn: join #ubuntu+1
[11:43] <orn> oh, thanks
[11:44] <Munchkinguy> I changed my desktop theme to "Clearlooks", but when I select text, it still turns brown. How do I change the colour of the "selected text background"?
[11:44] <thephotoman> Lusepuster: Short answer: no.  Long answer: yes.
[11:44] <Mosi> lusepuster: if you can image the drive with windows on it, try qemu or bochs
[11:44] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  try this:  host -v archive.ubuntu.com 212.159.13.50
[11:44] <jacek> na #ubuntu-pl jestem tylko ja ;/
[11:44] <erUSUL> gopi, mythtv is in repositories you only have to fire up synaptic and install it
[11:44] <thephotoman> If you define easy as "hacking a few text files, making too many symbolic links, and imaging the drive", then yeah, it's easy.
[11:45] <gopi> erUSUL: FYI, mine is an Athlon64 system but Iam using Ubuntu for AMD64
[11:45] <lusepuster> Mosi, image it? It's on a separate partition  on the same disk
[11:45] <erUSUL> !tell gopi about mythtv
[11:45] <anto9us> lusepuster, the problem there would be that your windows installation would be looking for the hardware it's set up on, a vm offers virtual hardware
[11:45] <navarone> jacek, sry it's #ubuntu.pl
[11:45] <Mosi> lusepuster: i don't know how to work with that. but try dd'ing the partition to a file, and run that file in the afore-mentioned programs
[11:46] <karen_> tristanmike, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10024
[11:46] <Mosi> lusepuster: i'm sure there are other ways to do it,  but that's what i would do
[11:46] <lusepuster> Mosi, sorry for not knowing much... dd'ing?
[11:46] <Lani> Hello, I'm new to Linux and Ubuntu. I've installed with the default desktop installation but when xwindows starts the graphics is all wierd. Does anyone know how I can change the xwindows video mode?
[11:46] <thephotoman> Weird?  How so?
[11:46] <selinium> !logs
[11:46] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, selinium
[11:46] <cwillu> Lani: what video card, vintage of machine, monitor model?
[11:47] <tristanmike> karen_, what if you change the refresh rate, does that give you access to other resolutions ?
[11:47] <anto9us> Lani, you need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf but make a backup first
[11:47] <Munchkinguy> tristanmike: I changed my desktop theme to "Clearlooks", but when I select text, it still turns brown. How do I change the colour of the "selected text background"?
[11:47] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  still there?
[11:47] <Mosi> lusepuster: dd is a command-line program to raw-copy binary data from a device, like your hard disk. but you need to know the start and end block of the partition, that's a little tricky to get
[11:47] <Lani> cwillu: eh, it's kinda a long shot, but it's Microsoft Virtual PC ;)
[11:47] <tristanmike> Munchkinguy, I don't know, I don't use clearlooks
[11:47] <karen_> tristanmike, can't change refresh rate
[11:47] <cwillu> ah
[11:47] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Yes
[11:48] <Celestianpower> Sorry
[11:48] <Lani> anto9us: ok thanks, i will look there, thank you!
[11:48] <cwillu> did you get that last command?  :)
[11:48] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Which?
[11:48] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  try this:  host -v archive.ubuntu.com 212.159.13.50
[11:48] <Munchkinguy> tristanmike: Then, how would I normally chage the selected text background colour?
[11:48] <anto9us> Lani, "sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup" then "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[11:48] <Mosi> does anyone know where i can get an mp3 plugin for XMMS, for PowerPC?
[11:48] <pablo928> how can I install a .sh app?
[11:49] <tristanmike> Munchkinguy, idk
[11:49] <anto9us> Lani, to quickly restart X without a reboot press ctrl+alt+backspace
[11:49] <Lani> anto9us: ok! thank you very much! trying right away!
[11:49] <Mosi> pablo: .sh usually means just a shell script. It's not really a program, just a single file that runs shell commands. It should run from anywhere.
[11:49] <jacek> navarone, thnx
[11:49] <cwillu> This is linux, and saturday:  you're expected to be giving this your full attention dammit :)
[11:49] <Celestianpower> cwillu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10025
[11:49] <erUSUL> pablo928, maybe sudo sh *.sh
[11:49] <lusepuster> anto9us, scandinavian?
[11:49] <tristanmike> karen_, when you did the dpkg-reconfigure, did you have an option of selecting "nvidia" as a driver and not "nv" ?
[11:49] <anto9us> lusepuster, no, I'm English, I live in Wales
[11:50] <Mosi> pablo928: does it not run where it is at the moment?
[11:50] <Lani> anto9us: ok, thanks again!
[11:50] <cwillu> Celestianpower:  hmm :/
[11:50] <cwillu> that looks right
[11:50] <erUSUL> pablo928, Mosi it can be a shar self-extracting compressed file
[11:50] <Celestianpower> cwillu: Be back after a reboot
[11:50] <cwillu> k
[11:50] <Mosi> erUSUL: i see ^_^
[11:50] <lusepuster> anto9us, Okay... 9 in the scaninavian languages is pronounced somewhat like 'nee', so it'd fit w your nick :-)
[11:51] <pablo928> Mosi:rthe shell script which I would like to install as an app is bbips. I emailed the maintainer and he add4ed another function to it which isn't available through the repos yet.
[11:51] <Munchkinguy> poningru: Perhaps you can help me with a problem?
[11:51] <lusepuster> Mosi, about that guest system... seem like using wine is a lot easier...
[11:51] <anto9us> lusepuster, my nick is meant to be pronounced as antoninus :)
[11:51] <poningru> sigh
[11:51] <poningru> dude randomly pinging people is not cool
[11:51] <Mosi> pablo928: erUSUL has corrected me, there's an archive format also tagged .sh, that's probably what you have. He seems to know more about that than i do ^_^
[11:51] <poningru> whats wrong?
[11:52] <lusepuster> anto9us, Hmm.... rest my case then :-) I'll keep saying 'antonius'...
[11:52] <swim> has anyone here gone from mandriva to ubuntu and stayed?
[11:52] <orn> anyone know of a program that is able to open oo documents apart from oo?
[11:52] <dang`r`us> hey hey
[11:52] <suryam> ho ho!
[11:52] <poningru> orko: koffice
[11:52] <dang`r`us> where do I get azureus for dapper?
[11:52] <cwillu> pong
[11:52] <Mosi> lusepuster: i'm on PowerPC, so i've never used Wine, since there's no PPC version.  Like is aid, i'm sure there are other ways that i don't know about, some probably easier. that's just what i would do.
[11:52] <Munchkinguy> poningru: How do I change the background colour of background text?
[11:53] <anto9us> swim, I went from mandrake to debian to ubuntu and stayed
[11:53] <poningru> dang`r`us: you cant install azureus easily using apt-get because of dependence on java
[11:53] <poningru> !tell dang`r`us about azureus
[11:53] <swim> anto9us, can you remember what you like more about ubuntu over mandriva?
[11:53] <poningru> Munchkinguy: what do you mean?
[11:53] <lusepuster> Mosi, okay. I'm normally a ppc uder myself, and I love Mac-On-Linux and hoped for a kind of Windoze-on-linux here on my mom's box
[11:53] <pablo928> erUSUL bbips was originally written as a bash script, I downloaded the newest version from the site as a .sh
[11:53] <poningru> lusepuster: give here wine
[11:53] <anto9us> swim, mainly the package management system and the repositories
[11:54] <dang`r`us> poningru, thanks (I have java, but now I also have a link to the .deb!)
[11:54] <poningru> !tell lusepuster about wine
[11:54] <lusepuster> poningru, don't get ya?
[11:54] <lusepuster> poningru, I know about wine, thanks
[11:54] <poningru> oh ok
[11:54] <Mosi> lusepuster: there are a slew of programs that will do that, but i don't know much about most of them. I would recommend looking into VMware
[11:54] <cwillu> I've got an oven pan that I warped by accident;  how can I unwarp it?
[11:54] <Mosi> lusepuster: er, VM
[11:54] <jmoncayo> can sombody help me with html
[11:54] <Lani> is there a keycombo for exiting xwindows? not only restarting it
[11:54] <anto9us> swim, also, ubuntu is a great community driven distro
[11:55] <Mosi> cwillu: /join #kitchenware
[11:55] <lusepuster> Mosi, thanks
[11:55] <cwillu> :p
[11:55] <Mosi> jmoncayo: what do you need?
[11:55] <Munchkinguy> poningru: I changed my desktop theme, but when I select text, it still turns brown. How do I change the colour of the "selected text background"?
[11:55] <erUSUL> pablo928, it is a simple shell script just make it executable and owned by root and place it somewhere in your path (/usr/local/bin is a good place)
[11:55] <swim> anto9us, because I used to use small distros like CRUX, and then Archlinux, but then I wanted something bigger that would "just work" so I could get more work done... unfortunatley although in a lot of ways I like ubuntu, i find a few things dont "just work" so Im considering trying one of the other big ones like Mandriva, or OpenSUSE
[11:55] <poningru> oh
[11:55] <poningru> Munchkinguy: uh that should have changed with the theme
[11:55] <jmoncayo> Mosi: can you see if the apache server is up in my ip
[11:56] <anto9us> swim, what are you struggling to get working?
[11:56] <dang`r`us> arch lost me because of too much stuff breaking
[11:56] <dang`r`us> now I'm running dapper and so far no meltdown ... good thing
[11:56] <poningru> Munchkinguy: try another theme
[11:56] <swim> anto9us, at the moment mostly burning... audio, as well as data
[11:56] <Mosi> Lani: Xwindows is set up to respawn whenever it's killed in /etc/inittab. you probably don't want change that, but if you press ctrl-alt-F1 you can switch to a text terminal
[11:56] <Munchkinguy> ok
[11:56] <Mosi> jmoncayo: URL?
[11:56] <anto9us> swim, have you enabled dma on your drive?
[11:57] <Lani> Mosi: ok, thank you! :)
[11:57] <swim> anto9us, I dont remember can I check from cli?
[11:57] <Mosi> Lani: sure :)
[11:57] <jmoncayo> Mosi: http://200.107.52.212
[11:57] <Mosi> Lani: ctrl-alt-F through ctrl-alt-F6 are also terminals, giving you six to work with ^_^

[11:59] <Mosi> jmoncayo: it's going to time out, it's been like a minute already
[11:59] <dang`r`us> Silent_shadow900, just ask your question
[11:59] <Mosi> Silent_shadow900 what's wrong?
[11:59] <jmoncayo> Mosi: is that for some firewall blocking port 80??
[11:59] <ClayG> how can i trouble shoot my MIC?
[11:59] <Silent_shadow900> well, I've been trying to boot with the Live CD, but nothing happens when I restart the computer with the CD in the drive
[12:00] <Silent_shadow900> Is there an option to boot the computer from a CD?
