[12:00] <Matt___> i think so
[12:00] <BSDinux> k
[12:00] <BSDinux> you can check in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:00] <Matt___> hmm maybe
[12:00] <weedar> jadaz87, in that case yes the package you want is linux-headers-2.6.12-9-386 :)
[12:00] <Random_Transit> yeah, that could be it, kage
[12:00] <Random_Transit> though...i've mounted NTFS partitions without ntfsprogs before
[12:00] <Random_Transit> afaik, NTFS (read, not write) is supported natively in kernel
[12:00] <soundray> kage, try installing it and run ntfsinfo /dev/hda1
[12:00] <tolis> hello, how I install Java RE in Firefox 1.5.. I already have Java..
[12:00] <majd> what do you guys recommend i do to make my ubuntu look good?
[12:00] <majd> i found this one screenshot i really liked, can't remember what it said though, had something like X-something desktop
[12:00] <rnd_null> metalhedd,  i've been using various live discs for the past 2 weeks trying to find a good distro to install on my hdd
[12:00] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i even learned how to boot linux from usb keys
[12:00] <kage> kk, 1sec
[12:00] <silvaran> soundray: What advantages does ntfsprogs provide?
[12:00] <jadaz87> weedar: so i guess all i will have to install from synaptic is "make" and the "linux-headers-2.6.12-9-386" packages
[12:00] <_jason> ubotu: tell tolis about ff1.5
[12:00] <_jason> tolis: do the plugins step
[12:00] <Random_Transit> majd...XFCE
[12:00] <jocke1s> Blissex: How do I install that in synaptic?
[12:00] <BSDinux> du a "gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[12:00] <jadaz87> weedar: ok thanks :) i will be back once i have loaded UBUNTU and the ndiswrapper and i will be back here to tell you of my success
[12:00] <tolis> thanx _jason
[12:01] <soundray> Random_Transit, silvaran: I'm recommending ntfsprogs to check if there is any visible fault with kage's filesystem on hda1
[12:01] <jocke1s> Blissex So How do I get Krusader 1.7. 1.6 crashes ALOT
[12:01] <Xanadu> richard_: you still there?
[12:01] <Matt___> wiat
[12:01] <weedar> jadaz87, excellent. I should stay online for about an hour or so. If I should be gone - good luck! :)
[12:01] <Matt___> just a sec
[12:01] <b33r> Error reading from server. Remote end closed connection
[12:01] <b33r> Failed to fetch http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/binary/wine_0.9.9-winehq-2_i386.deb  Error reading from server. Remote end closed connection
[12:01] <b33r>  <-- can anyone tell me y is this happening?
[12:01] <richard_> Xanadu:yes
[12:01] <Dreamglider> how can i remove xchat and install it again, and get rid of ALL previos settings ?
[12:01] <BSDinux> anc check if (at the very end) both ubuntu and windows are listed
[12:01] <jadaz87> weedar: thanks :)
[12:01] <Xanadu> richard_: please explain your question a bit more
[12:01] <sethk> Dreamglider, don't have to.  just remove the .xchat directories under $HOME
[12:01] <jadaz87> weedar: off i go!!! :)
[12:01] <metalhedd> rnd_null, haha, I've been using a livecd for 2 weeks because my motherboard is dying and won't boot from the hd anymore! :)
[12:01] <majd> Random_Transit, that wasn't it.....
[12:01] <Blissex> jocke1s: well you have to find a repository with the right level of binary for whatever Ubuntu release you are running.
[12:01] <cas> Dreamglider: rm -r ~/.xchat
[12:01] <max> dmraid & 2.6.15-6 kernel... --- OK compiling, but getting "Unknown symbol in module" and I/O errors on booting up.
[12:01] <rnd_null> metalhedd, what is the command to umount a swap partition?
[12:01] <sethk> Dreamglider, I think it is $HOME/.xchat2
[12:01] <Random_Transit> ohhh
[12:01] <metalhedd> rnd_null, swapoff /dev/hdx
[12:01] <_jason> Dreamglider: I think it's actually ~/.xchat2/
[12:01] <soundray> rnd_null: swapoff
[12:01] <Dreamglider> sethk, i need to reinstall, i am missing some servers and things
[12:01] <Random_Transit> XGL & Compiz
[12:02] <Matt___> BSDinux: http://pastebin.com/602595
[12:02] <nicholaspaul> Anyone know how to check what version of samba i have installed????
[12:02] <Jemt> How can I check if my kernel has unionfs and squashfs modules included?
[12:02] <sethk> Dreamglider, ok, but if you want the settings to disappear, delete $HOME/.xchat2
[12:02] <silvaran> Is there an ubuntu-supported irc client besides gaim available in the repo?
[12:02] <jocke1s> Blissex: Breezy, thanks I'll look around
[12:02] <kage> soudray: it says I must specify an inode to learn about
[12:02] <richard_> Xanadu: i try to save my page in this directory /var/www/ ... but i coudn't save it?
[12:02] <cas> Dreamglider: sethk is right, it is ~/.xchat2
[12:02] <rnd_null> metalhedd, thank you
[12:02] <soundray> nicholaspaul: dpkg -l samba
[12:02] <Xanadu> nicholaspaul: smbclient -V
[12:02] <sethk> silvaran, xchat, etc; but do you mean IM, not IRC?
[12:02] <nicholaspaul> thx guys :)
[12:03] <martyn_> i am trying to install nvida gfx drivers via cmd line can get file to run ok but get a error msg " No precompiled Kernel interface was found to match your Kernal" any ideas
[12:03] <Random_Transit> majd...are you talking about XGL?
[12:03] <sethk> martyn_, that's normal
[12:03] <Dreamglider> sethk, ok ok thanks. but how do i reinstall it and get the compleete serverlist back. i accedently deleted undernet and some other server liste
[12:03] <Dreamglider> :/
[12:03] <sethk> martyn_, it means only that you need to build the driver
[12:03] <Xanadu> richard_: probably permissions. Change the owner to you (sudo chown richard:richard /var/www/mydirector)
[12:03] <soundray> kage, I don't have an NTFS here to check this out on... Perhaps it helps if you have a look at the info in /usr/share/doc/ntfsprogs and the manpages.
[12:03] <BSDinux> i think that's alright... just check your menu.lst to make shure everything's there
[12:03] <sethk> Dreamglider, install it for another user and copy that user's .xchat2 directory
[12:03] <majd> Random_Transit, no...i can't remember it's name for the life of me.....but thanks for trying to help out
[12:03] <martyn_> sethk and how do i do that lol god linux can be tedes at time lol
[12:03] <Matt___> BSDinux: gedit isn't a vaild command....
[12:03] <richard_> Xanadu: ok
[12:04] <rnd_null> metalhedd, it's been tought fussing with linux, i have no help from anyone i know, linux is like aforign word to them
[12:04] <rnd_null> metalhedd, tough
[12:04] <sethk> martyn_, I haven't built nvidia for a few weeks, but as I recall, that message is displayed and it then goes on to build it
[12:04] <nicholaspaul> Matt___, sudo apt-get install gedit
[12:04] <sethk> martyn_, it's just an informational message
[12:04] <sethk> martyn_, or it may ask you if you want to build it.
[12:04] <_jason> Dreamglider: try just running xchat after rm'ing ~/.xchat2/, it will probably recreate it
[12:04] <Dreamglider> cant i remove it 100% and install a fresh copy!
[12:04] <metalhedd> rnd_null, yeah its alot easier if you have a friend who knows what they're doing...  but you can be the first to convert them all once you become a guru
[12:04] <sethk> martyn_, and you say yes
[12:04] <Dreamglider> okok
[12:04] <vader> cafuego, you about?
[12:04] <BSDinux> any other text editor will do
[12:04] <Random_Transit> majd...if you can find the URL for the screenshot...maybe we can help u a bit more
[12:04] <kage> soundray: it says I must specify an inode to learn more
[12:04] <martyn_> sethink: it asked if i wanted to download it then siad it could not find it and just finshed
[12:04] <Jemt> How can I check if my kernel has unionfs and squashfs modules included?
[12:05] <Jemt> !kernel
[12:05] <BSDinux> "vi" if you are in the terminal... but you should know how to use it
[12:05] <ptlo> hey all, any advice on how to debug nautilus+hal problem? nautilus won't show removable drives on my desktop (they are shown when i go to Computer folder)
[12:05] <majd> Random_Transit, that's what i'm looking for :)
[12:05] <BSDinux> nano is another one
[12:05] <Random_Transit> lol
[12:05] <sethk> martyn_, that's odd.  do you have kernel source and kernel headers installed?
[12:05] <rnd_null> metalhedd, yeah, i've already got one that had tried linux before like i did, he may be swapping back and another guy i know is going to dual boot pretty soon
[12:05] <sethk> martyn_, it might be looking for headers, and not finding them, decide to give up.
[12:05] <majd> aha....ximian
[12:05] <Random_Transit> ximian is mainly just e-mail, and contact software
[12:06] <Random_Transit> not much else
[12:06] <martyn_> sethink: yes using drivers version 7676 from this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[12:06] <metalhedd> rnd_null, the easiest ones to convert are the non-geeky ones believe it or not... they have limited requirements,  isntall ubuntu  and enable all the restrictedformats stuff and they'll be content with that.  its the hardcore windows ners taht are the hardest to convert because they expect everything to work like windows...
[12:06] <kage> i installed ntfsprogs.....but when i try to run it, it says I must specify an Inode to learn more...any help?
[12:06] <rnd_null> knoppix@0[knoppix] $ mke2fs -j /dev/hda1
[12:06] <rnd_null> mke2fs 1.39-WIP (10-Dec-2005)
[12:06] <rnd_null> mke2fs: Permission denied while trying to determine filesystem size
[12:07] <rnd_null> metalhedd, what does this mean?
[12:07] <soundray> kage, try some of the other ntfsprogs... e.g. ntfsls -a -d /dev/hda1
[12:07] <Matt___> BSDinux: everything is commented out
[12:07] <kage> kk 1sec
[12:07] <sethk> rnd_null, probably that you need to use sudo to run whatever you are trying to run
[12:07] <metalhedd> rnd_null, sudo mke2fs -j /dev/hda1
[12:07] <Matt___> wait
[12:07] <BSDinux> scroll down to the end
[12:07] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i'll try that
[12:07] <Matt___> ok BDSinux
[12:08] <Matt___> there is an entry for xp
[12:08] <martyn_> sethink: yes using drivers version 7676 from this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[12:08] <BSDinux> ubuntu also?
[12:08] <Matt___> root (hd0,0)
[12:08] <rnd_null> metalhedd, yep, that worked, thanks again
[12:08] <Matt___> yeah
[12:08] <Matt___> a few for ubunut
[12:08] <BSDinux> good
[12:08] <rnd_null> metalhedd, what is sudo?
[12:08] <kage> soundray, it says it cant mount device :invalid argument
[12:08] <vader> if there are any wireless people here, I have a broadcom BCM4318 on my laptop here and ummmmm it lights up but cannot see the accesspoit, have followed the wiki to a tea and still no go
[12:08] <Matt___> 3 for ubuntu a few lines ontop
[12:08] <oklinux> any one run crossover in ubuntu ?
[12:08] <metalhedd> rnd_null, no problem...  sudo executes the command that follows it with the permissions of the root user... its necessary for accessing pretty much anything outside of your home directory
[12:09] <cas> rnd_null: Super User DO, execute the command as root
[12:09] <BSDinux> now be brave and try a reboot.. ;-)
[12:09] <Matt___> ok
[12:09] <Matt___> im holding my breath
[12:09] <soundray> kage: it sounds bad. Does Windows still boot?
[12:09] <BSDinux> yeah, the additional options are for repairing tasks
[12:09] <kage> soundray, yes
[12:09] <suryam> i upgraded from breezy to dapper and now all KDE apps have this GIANT font that fills up half my screen... how do i fix this?
[12:09] <rnd_null> metalhedd, : ) that makes sense
[12:09] <Matt___> ok
[12:09] <Matt___> rnd_null, It is really fun working out linux
[12:09] <martyn_> what version of nvdia driver do i need for the 64 bit version
[12:10] <BSDinux> once you get used to the menu.lst you can edit it a bit to adjust it to your needs
[12:10] <Sonderblade> how do i find out which package owns a certain file?
[12:10] <Matt___> i am sure you will have a great deal of it just playing around
[12:10] <_jason> Sonderblade: dpkg -S file
[12:10] <metalhedd> rnd_null, search the ubuntu wiki theres a page all about sudo and why you have to use it and why its a good idea.
[12:10] <Matt___> here we go
[12:10] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i understand, i just didn't know what is was
[12:11] <silvaran> ubotu: tell rnd_null about root
[12:11] <suryam> giant font in KDE dapper, anyone?
[12:11] <Matt___> still error 21
[12:11] <rnd_null> metalhedd, for security, how do you prevent other users from using that?
[12:11] <Sonderblade> _jason: but i dont have the package installed
[12:11] <virus> rnd_null, don't put unprivileged users in your sudoers file. :)
[12:11] <max> rnd_null you need to exclude them from the sudoers "group"
[12:11] <metalhedd> rnd_null, only people who have explicit permission can run sudo
[12:11] <rnd_null> ok
[12:11] <soundray> kage: have you compressed your NTFS perhaps?
[12:11] <_jason> Sonderblade: install apt-file then.  First do 'sudo apt-file update' then 'apt-file search filename'
[12:11] <Matt___> ubotu: tell me about grub errors
[12:12] <virus> rnd_null, in ubuntu any users in the "admin" group have sudoer rights.
[12:12] <kage> soundray, i don't think so..I'm like 90% sure I haven't
[12:12] <suryam> anybody using Qt3 or KDE programs under dapper?
[12:12] <_jason> ubotu: tell Matt___ about grub
[12:12] <Matt___> ok dude
[12:12] <rnd_null> ok, thats not a problem then, i can manage that
[12:12] <Sonderblade> _jason: thanks
[12:12] <BSDinux> grub doesnt find the disk... you have 3 hds?
[12:12] <nico8481> hi
[12:12] <ubuntu> hey
[12:13] <rnd_null> -_- you guys are amazing, i've never seen a more helpfull group, thanks -_-
[12:13] <nico8481> any idea how to import mails from Evolution into Kmail ?
[12:13] <max> what about inserting dmraid in the initramfs  when compiling new kernels (2.6.15)?
[12:13] <soundray> kage, sorry, I haven't got any other suggestions.
[12:13] <BSDinux> check your bios settings... grub only reads hds available in bios
[12:13] <kage> soundray, no problem, I'll figure it out eventually XD
[12:13] <suryam> !kde dapper
[12:13] <ubotu> suryam: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:13] <slimz> anyone want to help me with dapper live cd? i tried booting it, but x wont start
[12:13] <Matt___> hmmm
[12:13] <soundray> kage, I hope you do.
[12:13] <BSDinux> probably a simple bios diskcheck would do
[12:13] <Matt___> i am looking at them
[12:14] <ubuntu> Question, If anyone could please answer it, would be greatly appreciated, I have my Ubuntu Cds but have no clue how to set up my laptop to dual boot win xp and ubuntu any suggestions?
[12:14] <Hobbs`> ya
[12:14] <suryam> KDE apps have *giant* fonts in dapper... please!
[12:14] <Wizz_kidd> how cna i copy /root/Music to my home dir
[12:14] <Hobbs`> I just installed it
[12:14] <Wizz_kidd> it says i domt have permissions
[12:14] <nico8481> kmailcvt should do it but for some reason it doesn't work (maybe i don't specify the correct directory?)
[12:14] <max> 'cause you're root Wizz_kidd
[12:14] <BSDinux> ubuntu, first partition your disk, then install win xp then install ubuntu, that's it
[12:14] <Matt___> and how would i do one of those?
[12:14] <Hobbs`> @ubuntu: I just installed it, xp first
[12:14] <Wizz_kidd> i know but how cna i do it without switching accounts
[12:14] <cafuego> ubuntu: Step one: Boot WinXP and make sure you have at least 5 GB of free space. Then run defrag in XP.
[12:14] <metalhedd> Wizz_kidd, sudo mv /root/Music /home/username
[12:14] <Spec> Wizz_kidd: sudo cp -R /root/Music /home/username/
[12:15] <metalhedd> Wizz_kidd, then chmod it.
[12:15] <Wizz_kidd> mv or cp
[12:15] <Spec> Wizz_kidd: sudo chown -R username:username /home/username/Music
[12:15] <max> either
[12:15] <BSDinux> in the bios there usually is some option to check for available harddisks...
[12:15] <cafuego> ubuntu; Then boot the LiveCD and resize the NTFS partition, leaving free space on disk for Ubuntu.
[12:15] <Xanadu> night all
[12:15] <Matt___> well, it is already showing my hdds
[12:15] <suryam> meh.. ubuntu forums are better at times than this channel :-/
[12:15] <ubuntu> (hobbs) should i use xps disk partitioner and put ubuntu on my new partition?
[12:15] <cafuego> ubuntu: Then boot the Ubuntu installer nad  tell it to use all available unpartitioned space.
[12:16] <vader> cafuego, did you do the broadcom page on the wiki?
[12:16] <cafuego> vader: only added in a link and WPA info, others did the rest,
[12:16] <Jemt> !kernel
[12:16] <Jemt> !kernel
[12:16] <Jemt> Sorry
[12:16] <Jemt> How can I check if my kernel has unionfs and squashfs modules included?
[12:16] <Hobbs`> ubuntu: if theres no free space you have to resize the existing partition
[12:16] <vader> hmmmmmmmmm I can get the broadcom to lite but cannot see the AP
[12:16] <ubuntu> oh sorry i see CAFUEGO thanks for your help
[12:17] <cafuego> ubuntu: if XP is not yet installed, just install it first and leave some free space at the end of the disk.
[12:17] <cafuego> ubuntu: 5GB minimum, but more would be nice.
[12:17] <jdmpike> man... skype for linux is such a piece of crap!

[12:18] <ubuntu> thanks cafuego
[12:18] <slimz> does anyone know if dapper will be able to read and write to an ntfs partition?
[12:18] <ubuntu> =
[12:18] <cas> Wizz_kidd: to change the owner use chown instead of chmod
[12:18] <cas> Wizz_kidd: see man chmod and man chown for more information
[12:19] <selinium> jdmpike, Try wengophone, smae thing different company...

[12:25] <CHAOS_mUFy> thanks i think i got alot of help here
[12:25] <ompaul> !tell Ollie about vfat
[12:25] <selinium> jdmpike, skype-dsp-hijacker it is in extras! but like i said you wil need to use one of the mirrors. The repo itself no longer allows downloads..
[12:26] <Ollie> ompaul, why do I need to know about that?
[12:26] <SZF2001> You guys know the Nintendo USB Dongle? Are there any projects or programs that can run it on Ubuntu, that anyone would know about?
[12:26] <Ollie> nothing to do with my problem...
[12:27] <hypnotic> well could anyone help me with my problem? :(
[12:27] <OmegaAlpha> any VNC users in herE?
[12:27] <selinium> jdmpike, I hope this helps. I need to catch some Z's. Up in 6 hours...
[12:27] <jdmpike> selinium, yeah, me too - I have no clue how to use this though
[12:28] <metalhedd> hypnotic, the little lock is on your mp3 player?
[12:28] <selinium> jdmpike, You could always try Seveas, he packaged it! Good night, and good luck!
[12:28] <metalhedd> hypnotic, look in the manual and see what it means ;)
[12:29] <hypnotic> metalhedd: well my mp3 player is not compatible with linux.. but i figured i could still transfer files to it
[12:29] <selinium> jdmpike, If you have no luck and are about tomorrow, I will be online all day..
[12:29] <hypnotic> metalhedd: linux finds it as a removable storage...
[12:30] <metalhedd> hypnotic, you probably can... but you have to be more specific about your porblem if you want support... what does the 'little lock' mean?  google for 'lock icon' + yourmp3player and see waht it means, maybe then we can figure out how to resolve it
[12:30] <jdmpike> selinium, cheers mate, night!
[12:30] <newtoubuntu> Hi I need help installing realplayer
[12:30] <selinium> jdmpike, gn :)
[12:30] <hypnotic> metalhedd: wait.. whenever i move anything from that ntfs partition it puts a lock on it (even if i move a file from /media/hdd1/ to desktop)
[12:31] <metalhedd> hypnotic, change the ownership and permission of the file before you put it on your player.
[12:31] <hypnotic> metalhedd: so wouldnt that mean it has something to do with permissions on that /media/hdd1/ hard drive?
[12:31] <newtoubuntu> I've tried a few times, and it didn't work, so I thought i'd un install it ask the irc
[12:31] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, what's the trouble?
[12:31] <hypnotic> metalhedd: could you explain how to do that
[12:31] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, did you follow the wiki ?
[12:31] <metalhedd> hypnotic, chown hypnotic:hypnotic filename  should be good enough
[12:31] <newtoubuntu> Well, Whenever I try to install it from the "add programs" tool, there's an eror
[12:32] <newtoubuntu> What wiki?
[12:32] <martyn_> l am install nvida driviver via comand line. it keeps looking for kernel 3.4 any ideas
[12:32] <tristanmike> !tell newtoubuntu about realplayer
[12:32] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, see your private message please
[12:32] <newtoubuntu> ok I'll check that out
[12:32] <HymnToLife> !tell martyn_ about nvidia
[12:33] <kary> Help : I'm trying to hook my laptop up to a wired network.  My nic uses the tg3 module.  For some reason, it can't contact the router.  The cable has been tested (can dualboot to windows and works fine) and i know the nic works in linux (used it before).  dmesg give sme output of "eth0: no IPv6 routers present" and that's it.  Any suggestions?
[12:33] <Teratogen> man, ubuntu sure has a lot of packages!
[12:33] <hypnotic> metalhedd, so would i do chown sean69:sean69 /media/hdd1/2000 Holy Wood/2000 Holy Wood/Marilyn Manson - Count to Six and Die (TVISE).mp3
[12:33] <PuppiesOnAcid> Anyone interested in buying a PC?
[12:33] <martyn_> have tried the guild can get it to boot ok but it wont pecomplie the guid as it needs kernal
[12:34] <metalhedd> hypnotic, i'm not too sure if you can change the ownership of a file while its on an NTFS Drive. best to copy it to your linux partition first.
[12:34] <martyn_> have tried the guild can get it to boot ok but it wont pecomplie the guid as it needs kernal 3.4
[12:34] <tristanmike> hypnotic, your going to have a problem with all those spaces in there
[12:34] <tristanmike> hypnotic, don't do anything but *read* on an ntfs drive, it's for your own saftey
[12:35] <aeolist> hi all
[12:35] <hypnotic> tristanmike: i believe that is what it's set at
[12:35] <CHAOS_mUFy> thanks alot thats what i call true os
[12:35] <CHAOS_mUFy> nice kiss all:)
[12:35] <tristanmike> hypnotic, right, so like metalhedd said, just copy it over, and change permissions then
[12:35] <oklinux> what true os CHAOS_mUFy ?
[12:36] <CHAOS_mUFy> linux is a true os not like windos
[12:36] <martyn_> l am install nvida driviver via comand line. can get file to run ok it keeps looking for a precompile kernal . i allow it to do this does not work then it says it needs kernel 3.4 any ideas
[12:36] <aeolist> i am trying to copy a locked vcd... i made an image of it through readcd -clone that created a toc file as well, but cdrecord write bah.toc says it's broken... any ideas?
[12:36] <hypnotic> tristanmike: i did  chown sean69:sean69 Marilyn.mp3
[12:36] <rob138> what would cause a program like PINGUS to drop my wireless Kb/s from 150+ to about 1?
[12:36] <hypnotic> tristanmike: it still has that locked symbol
[12:36] <ubuntu> I can't seem to write on a Fat32 windows partition, using a live cd. can anyone help?
[12:36] <kage> hey, anyone know a good place to get moving desktop backgrounds? or..are there even desktop backgrounds?
[12:36] <kary> kernel 3.4?
[12:36] <kary> nvidia are WAY ahead of the curve
[12:36] <kage> moving desktop backgrounds*
[12:36] <martyn_> yeah thats what it says
[12:37] <rob138> anyone, what would cause a program like PINGUS to drop my wireless Kb/s from 150+ to about 1?
[12:37] <tristanmike> hypnotic, what's the problem? can't read it ?
[12:37] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i've got another question, i'm running the kanotix live cd right now with kde and i want to save the ubuntu iso to my hdd, it says i dont have permission and it wont let me chroot it...
[12:37] <servjew> whoops, ill ask again, i have a ATI MSI theater 550 video capture card taht is not being detected by ubuntu, anything i can do ? (there are no drivers on the ati page)
[12:37] <EdLin> kage, maybe you're looking for something like gdesklets, though that's not quite a background.
[12:37] <EdLin> kage, you can change your background, but none animated.
[12:37] <HedgeMage> kage: I think there's an app to let you use screensavers as desktop backgrounds in Gnome, but I can't think of what it's called.
[12:37] <hypnotic> tristanmike: whenever i transfer a file from my ntfs hard drive to my desktop i get a locked symbol on it (im assuming its permissions are wrong.. how could i change it )
[12:37] <natroll> servjew, google to see if anyone has got it working
[12:37] <kage> thank you
[12:38] <HedgeMage> kary: google a bit and you should find it, I'd think
[12:38] <metalhedd> rnd_null, sudo ;)
[12:38] <martyn_> l am install nvida driviver via comand line. can get file to run ok it keeps looking for a precompile kernal . i allow it to do this does not work then it says it needs kernel 3.4 any ideas
[12:38] <urmom> help with onboard ac97 audio
[12:38] <rob138> any ideas?
[12:38] <servjew> k, ill check it out.
[12:38] <metalhedd> rnd_null, whenever you get a permission problem try sudo first.
[12:38] <newtoubuntu> tristanmike: ok so I followed the instructions on the wiki, and as it was installing on the machine it said "abort"  any ideas?
[12:38] <kary> HedgeMage: find what?
[12:38] <natroll> servjew, i may be wrong, but considering not only is it a capture card, but an ATI capture card, I doubt it is supported as of yet
[12:38] <anto9us> gnome-hacks.jodrell.net contains info on using a screensaver as background
[12:38] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i did with sudo and again as root
[12:38] <tristanmike> hypnotic, what happens when you right click the file and select permissions what do you get ?
[12:38] <rnd_null> metalhedd, it still wont let me
[12:39] <HedgeMage> kary: sorry, bad tab, that was meant for kage, who quit right before I typed it
[12:39] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, can you paste the output on pastebin ?
[12:39] <tristanmike> !tell newtoubuntu about pastebin
[12:39] <OmegaAlpha> servjew, look for a driver that is not on a the ati page, like google 'Omega Drivers'  even use a windows driver with wine
[12:39] <rob138> what would cause a program like PINGUS to drop my wireless Kb/s from 150+ to about 1?
[12:39] <CHAOS_mUFy> kiss all :D
[12:39] <kary> HedgeMage: lol, i do that all too often
[12:39] <metalhedd> rnd_null, is the hd mounted?
[12:39] <metalhedd> rnd_null, and NOT write protected?
[12:39] <rnd_null> metalhedd, yes, its mounted, i dont know if its write protected, how to i change that?
[12:39] <flodine> hello does anyone connect using bitlbee
[12:40] <newtoubuntu> it realy isn't very long, cant I just paste it here?
[12:40] <hypnotic> tristanmike: good job :D i think that fixed it
[12:40] <metalhedd> just type 'mount' it will tell you the permissions of mounted devices
[12:40] <metalhedd> rnd_null, ^^
[12:40] <suryam> pls help! after i upgraded to dapper, all KDE programs have a giant font: http://people.ucsc.edu/~skurapat/pub/tmp/KDE-dapper.png
[12:40] <mikeazorin> i want to do something cool with ubuntu, what's one thing i could do?
[12:40] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, no, use pastebin
[12:40] <metalhedd> rnd_null, rw means read/write, ro means read only
[12:40] <newtoubuntu> ok sure
[12:40] <rnd_null> metalhedd, /dev/hda1 on /media/hda1 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev)
[12:41] <_jason> suryam: wow, please file a bug
[12:41] <natroll> suryam, wow, file buggage fo rizzzle
[12:41] <_jason> suryam: maybe #kubuntu people can tell you how to change font size
[12:41] <suryam> okay. i'll ask them before bug filing
[12:41] <metalhedd> rnd_null, you're trying to save it through to that disk from your browser or something?
[12:42] <rnd_null> metalhedd, yes
[12:42] <natroll> suryam, i know it's possible to change the font sizes, i did it once when I was using kubuntu
[12:42] <Wizz_kidd> whats the best P2p client for GNOME
[12:42] <metalhedd> rnd_null, the user running the browser probably doesn't have write permissions to the disk... cd to media/hda1 and try sudo wget http://url-to-iso
[12:42] <newtoubuntu> ok Done
[12:42] <suryam> natroll: i was trying to change it through kcontrol (the screenshot), but it's damn impossble
[12:42] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, ok, paste the link here
[12:42] <CHAOS_mUFy> hey people there is some thing
[12:43] <rnd_null> metalhedd, ahh...or i could use links as root...haha i'm dumb
[12:43] <CHAOS_mUFy> i cant play mp3 files
[12:43] <metalhedd> rnd_null, that would work too.
[12:43] <newtoubuntu> here: http://cpp.enisoc.com/pastebin/6820
[12:43] <CHAOS_mUFy> what can i do?
[12:43] <natroll> suryam, i think i did it in a text file myself
[12:43] <tristanmike> !tell CHAOS_mUFy about mp3
[12:43] <metalhedd> CHAOS_mUFy, google for 'restrictedformats' and go to the first link
[12:43] <suryam> natroll: can you paste to me?
[12:43] <rnd_null> metalhedd, you can tell i've been away from the command line for wwaayy to long
[12:43] <metalhedd> rnd_null, its like riding a bike
[12:44] <natroll> suryam, i don't know off-hand
[12:44] <rnd_null> metalhedd, yep, and its still fun
[12:44] <Wizz_kidd> whats a good p2p client
[12:44] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, that's strange, what happens if you try again...do you have synaptic open?
[12:44] <Suture> What is the best (best features) term?
[12:44] <newtoubuntu> No I don't have it open
[12:44] <metalhedd> Suture, very subjective.
[12:44] <newtoubuntu> I'll try again
[12:45] <metalhedd> Suture, aterm is nice though
[12:45] <kbrooks> can i change the ubuntu busy cursor?
[12:45] <Suture> I was thinking about Aterm.  Im using Eterm right now
[12:45] <newtoubuntu> did the same thing
[12:45] <PuppiesOnAcid> What package must I aquire to play AAC files?
[12:45] <metalhedd> kbrooks, you can download entire mouse cursor themes from www.gnome-look.org
[12:45] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, strange that there are no real errors
[12:46] <kbrooks> metalhedd, k
[12:46] <newtoubuntu> Do you think that ther's somthing wrong with my system?
[12:46] <Suture> what is the difference between like aterm and zsh?
[12:46] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, no, no, don't be so worried
[12:46] <Wizz_kidd> wtf
[12:46] <adam_> How does one install a .deb file manually?
[12:46] <rnd_null> metalhedd, phew, it's going...120kbits from tokyo
[12:46] <aeolist> aterm is a terminal program, zsh is a shell
[12:46] <Wizz_kidd> i cant find any gnome p2p cleints
[12:46] <newtoubuntu> I've had the same problem when installing other programs in .deb
[12:47] <natroll> ugh, that battery monitor is annoying atm
[12:47] <aeolist> adam_, sudo dpkg -i <package name>
[12:47] <adam_> I tried dpkg --install but for some reason it gave me errors (I don't know if this is the correct way)
[12:47] <metalhedd> rnd_null, is it a dapper iso? i can't get more than 20k downloading that bastard.
[12:47] <Suture> aeolist: does it matter wether I use bash or zsh?
[12:47] <PuppiesOnAcid> What package must I aquire to play AAC files?
[12:47] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, try "sudo apt-get install gcc-3.3-base"
[12:47] <rnd_null> metalhedd, dapper?
[12:47] <newtoubuntu> what would that do?
[12:47] <aeolist> Suture, it doesnt "matter", some stuff is diferent, that's all... like the autocomplete feature
[12:47] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, single out the packages
[12:48] <newtoubuntu> k
[12:48] <ompaul> !tell PuppiesOnAcid about restricted
[12:48] <aeolist> Suture, it's just where you feel confy and if it fills your needs
[12:48] <adam_> aeolist, Ah, thank you -- nevermind I was installing the wrong packages :) (I had downloaded the packages in another directory, and the ones that I was trying to install were simply blank files, haha)
[12:48] <metalhedd> rnd_null, Dapper Drake! the next ubuntu release
[12:48] <ompaul> !tell Wizz_kidd about repos
[12:48] <aeolist> adam_, if you have unresolved depedencies, you'll have to sort them manually
[12:48] <Suture> aeolist: ok, is there a way to make aterm start with zsh always? i always have to start it
[12:48] <rnd_null> metalhedd, is that what i'm downloading?
[12:48] <adam_> aeolist, okay, thanks
[12:49] <rnd_null> metalhedd, it says 5.10 breezy badger
[12:49] <metalhedd> rnd_null, yeah that's what I was asking... you said it was an ISO. i was wondering if it was a dapper drake ISO, as I can't seem to get a good transfer rate for the life of me.
[12:49] <aeolist> Suture, if you dont know how to do that, why are you messing with zsh :PPPP jk, let me see
[12:49] <metalhedd> rnd_null, yeah that's the current stable release... I wan't dapper though
[12:49] <Suture> aeolist: =D I like the timestamp thing
[12:50] <techrush> powerpc livecd works perfect on my powermac g4
[12:50] <techrush> neat
[12:50] <rnd_null> metalhedd, oh...it's only going fast because the mirror is in tokyo and all internet traffic from here goes through tokyo or taiwan
[12:50] <newtoubuntu> tristanmike: I'll show you what it did on pate bin
[12:50] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i tried tokyo first
[12:50] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, ok
[12:50] <metalhedd> rnd_null, i usually get upwards of 300K/sec from arcticnetwork but they dont have dapper ISO's yet
[12:51] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i have a bad connection here, i can never get over about 120-130
[12:51] <^^NEGO^^> Anyone can give me a clue of a very weird problem that is ocurring in my computer?
[12:51] <metalhedd> ^^NEGO^^, pc gnomes
[12:51] <newtoubuntu> link: http://cpp.enisoc.com/pastebin/6821
[12:52] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i've had gremlins before
[12:52] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, ok, that worked
[12:52] <metalhedd> Lol
[12:52] <_jason> ^^NEGO^^: not without hearing the problem :)
[12:52] <FliesLikeABrick> for reasons I'd rather not get into, my partition schema has changed and I need to reinstall grub.  can anyone help me through the process of installing grub?  (I'm on a knoppix livecd at the moment)
[12:52] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i still find them all the time in the airplanes
[12:52] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, try "sudo apt-get install libstdc++5"
[12:52] <newtoubuntu> do I oppen it with <alt> <f12>
[12:52] <gazanfer> can you please suggest a good network browser? (not commandline)
[12:52] <_jason> ubotu: tell FliesLikeABrick about grub
[12:52] <_jason> FliesLikeABrick: see if that helps
[12:52] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, what do you mean?
[12:52] <rnd_null> gazonfer, firefox
[12:52] <newtoubuntu> why isn't it allready installed
[12:53] <rnd_null> gazonfer, oops, nevermind
[12:53] <gazanfer> :)
[12:53] <newtoubuntu> I ment <alt> <f2>
[12:53] <soundray> FliesLikeABrick: mount your ubuntu root partition, then run "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/rootmountpoint /dev/hda"
[12:53] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, why? after that installed just try the command above
[12:53] <rnd_null> metalhedd, are you in the states?
[12:53] <Yango> anyone else stumbled upon the pydoc mess upoin the last update?
[12:54] <metalhedd> rnd_null, canada
[12:54] <^^NEGO^^> Very often, when I turn it on, the fonts are screw up... I dunno why.... even in GDM... they are smaller than usual and a little uglly... when I start XFCE the problem persists
[12:54] <^^NEGO^^> but when I reboot the computer
[12:54] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i've been to niagra falls before
[12:54] <Wizz_kidd> what is a good LINUX p2p client ????????

[12:55] <Yango> _jason, I'm there as well, but my question is not python related, but ubuntu related. Last apt-get update broke my python installation
[12:55] <charles> is there anythinng special i need to do to setup aMule? I keep getting 'Failed to load server.met file' errors
[12:55] <suryam> argh... i just wana use kompare.. i miss it soo much. i shoudn't have upgraded to dapper :*-( damn dapper! >:-o *cries*
[12:55] <_jason> Yango: in what way?
[12:55] <newtoubuntu> tristanmike: that worked (I think)
[12:55] <tristanmike> newtoubuntu, weird, try the deb install again
[12:55] <rnd_null> metalhedd, its about 2-3 hours south on the lakefront, that where i'm from, overeas now though
[12:55] <corvax> everytime i reboot the laptop i  cant print to my networked brothere 2070n untill i click on the button that makes it printout its settings so i can grab the ip and enter that into ipp
[12:55] <newtoubuntu> No it worked fine
[12:55] <corvax> any suggestions
[12:55] <corvax> how to alleviate that
[12:56] <metalhedd> rnd_null, lucky, i want to leave north america!
[12:56] <Yango> _jason, now help(command) doesn't work (and yesterday, before the upgrade did)
[12:56] <corvax> its a little annoying
[12:56] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i cant wait to get back
[12:56] <rnd_null> metalhedd, been gone 5 years now
[12:56] <aeolist> Suture,  chsh -s /bin/zsh

[12:57] <^^NEGO^^> Does anyone guess what's going on with this font related issue?
[12:57] <Suture> chsh -s /bin/zsh
[12:57] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i really hope ubuntu works good, i'm tired of looking for a good distro
[12:57] <Amaranth> rnd_null: please tell me you mean canada
[12:57] <Yango> _jason, in fact pydoc got messed up
[12:57] <_jason> Yango: what version did it update to?
[12:57] <metalhedd> rnd_null, the grass is always greener on the other side I suppose.
[12:57] <aeolist> Suture, you better mean that, i woke up this geek guy on my msn list to find this bit of info
[12:57] <suryam> oh well time to reinstall breezy from scratch... is there no other way?
[12:57] <Amaranth> err
[12:57] <rnd_null> metalhedd, should i try to download dapper drake if i can find it?...no,no i'm from pennsylvania
[12:57] <dyrne> martyn_: installing drivers using installer from nvidia site
[12:57] <dyrne> ?
[12:58] <Amaranth> wrong channel, forget i said anything
[12:58] <Amaranth> please don't answer
[12:58] <metalhedd> rnd_null, i've tried like 12 distros and ubuntu was the only one I liked as much as gentoo
[12:58] <soundray> suryam, what's the problem with kompare in dapper?
[12:58] <Yango> ii  python2.4-doc                          2.4.2-1
[12:58] <Yango> _jason,
[12:58] <martyn_> dyene: yes i am
[12:58] <metalhedd> rnd_null, the url for dapper is in the topic of this channel
[12:58] <corvax> i guess i could turn off dhcp on my router?
[12:58] <newtoubuntu> ok I think that that worked
[12:58] <metalhedd> rnd_null, its supposed to be pretty stable for everyday use
[12:58] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i used to watch canadian tv with an antenna
[12:58] <corvax> and assign static ip's
[12:58] <_jason> Yango: I'm running that and it works.  You are using breezy?
[12:58] <corvax> maybe that help
[12:58] <urmom> hey does anyone know of any command and conquer type games i can get in add applications?
[12:58] <metalhedd> rnd_null, thats really sad.. canadian tv is horrible ;)
[12:58] <Yango> _jason, it works help(list) for instance?
[12:58] <newtoubuntu> YESS IT WORKED!!!
[12:58] <rnd_null> metalhedd, is dapper stable?
[12:59] <Yango> _jason, or running pydoc from the commandline?
[12:59] <corvax> RND you wont be able too watch us tv
[12:59] <_jason> Yango: yes to both
[12:59] <suryam> soundray: all KDE apps have this giant font when I upraded to dapper: http://people.ucsc.edu/~skurapat/pub/tmp/KDE-dapper.png
[12:59] <corvax> with an antenna
[12:59] <rnd_null> corvax, why not?
[12:59] <suryam> soundray: they are damn unusable at that size
[12:59] <corvax> because of the switch to digital
[12:59] <metalhedd> rnd_null, no idea, I haven't installed it yet... its supposed to be pretty stable though
[12:59] <Yango> _jason, crap, then what can be the problem... have you updated lately? :)
[12:59] <rnd_null> corvax, oh
[12:59] <corvax> yes
[12:59] <corvax> the govt is actually giving out vouchers
[12:59] <corvax> lmao
[12:59] <_jason> Yango: yep, up to date
[12:59] <ubuntu> i'm playing a video in gxine, I get the image, but no sound, can anyone help?
[01:00] <_jason> Yango: no idea on the problem, what happens when you try pydoc?
[01:00] <corvax> to make those people buy converters
[01:00] <soundray> suryam: that is, erm, big... Have you tried scratching your kde configuration?
[01:00] <corvax> but the stupid part is they wont get any free tv
[01:00] <corvax> theyll have to PAY
[01:00] <rnd_null> metalhedd, can 5.10 be "migrated" or whatever its called to dapper?
[01:00] <Yango> _jason, http://pastebin.com/602660
[01:00] <suryam> soundray: yes. it does nothing
[01:00] <metalhedd> rnd_null, from what I hear, yes, but its not that great of an idea.
[01:00] <rnd_null> corvax, pay? for using the antenna?
[01:00] <corvax> unless they hook up a free to air satellite reviever or somthing
[01:00] <Yango> _jason, to any help command, and pydoc from command line.. all the same exception
[01:00] <corvax> no pay for cable
[01:00] <rnd_null> corvax, oh
[01:00] <suryam> soundray: it's even a bug: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+bug/32442
[01:01] <corvax> because there will be no over the air signal
[01:01] <soundray> suryam: you mustn't have kde running while you move the directories.
[01:01] <corvax> i think it goes in to effect in either 2007 or 2008
[01:01] <suryam> soundray: yes. i'm not using kde while doing any of it
[01:02] <martyn_> having trouble with nvida drivers for there site. trying to install it says that there a  proble with the copmlier 3.4 and need 4,0 but i have checked and 4.0 is installed ???
[01:02] <soundray> suryam: and did you move ~/.kde as well as .kderc out of the way?
[01:02] <Klohunt> Am I correct that I have to install some library before I can program in C in ubuntu?
[01:02] <rnd_null> metalhedd, where is the link for dapper, maybe i'll just download that
[01:02] <Klohunt> what was it called again? libc-dev or something?
[01:02] <soundray> Klohunt: build-essential
[01:02] <rnd_null> corvax, so there will be no more free tv in canada?
[01:03] <suryam> soundray: i rm -rf'ed those fools
[01:03] <metalhedd> rnd_null, http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/flight5
[01:03] <rnd_null> metalhedd, ah, it says 'testing' maybe i should stay away from it for now...
[01:03] <Klohunt> soundray, thanks
[01:03] <_jason> Yango: hrmm, have you tried reinstalling it?
[01:04] <metalhedd> rnd_null, probably wise ;)  the word on the streets though is that its quite stable.
[01:04] <Nogimics> Every night I just turn the plug socket off on my ubuntu box, is this ok? or can this cause problems?
[01:04] <soundray> suryam: have you asked in #ubuntu+1 ?
[01:04] <martyn_> having trouble with nvida drivers for there site. trying to install it says that there a  proble with the copmlier 3.4 and need 4,0 but i have checked and 4.0 is installed ???
[01:04] <metalhedd> hey have they made the decision about whether or not to delay the dapper release yet?
[01:04] <rnd_null> metalhedd, it looks really easy though
[01:04] <stardash> hey I have a problem I was hoping someone come help me with
[01:04] <_jason> stardash: just ask, if someone knows they will try :)
[01:04] <suryam> soundray: +1 ?
[01:05] <metalhedd> rnd_null, its supposed to have much improved gui config tools for kde, from what I read somewhere anyhow
[01:05] <soundray> Nogimics: ext3 is fairly resistant to powercuts. Still, you should probably do a proper shutdown.
[01:05] <rnd_null> metalhedd, would i be able to use gnome?
[01:05] <soundray> suryam: yes.
[01:05] <metalhedd> rnd_null, but of course.
[01:05] <systemofadown> hello
[01:05] <stardash> I just installed ubuntu and do not remember being prompted to make a root password, I made a user pass, but not a root. I need to use root to add drivers and I seem to be out of luck
[01:05] <rnd_null> metalhedd, not difficultly?
[01:05] <Yango> _jason, nope... any other hint?
[01:05] <Nogimics> soundray what is the correct shutdown command that I can use in SSH?
[01:05] <corvax> rn not canada
[01:05] <metalhedd> stardash, use sudo with your regular user passwword
[01:05] <corvax> the us
[01:05] <systemofadown> how can i have the splash screen and have the res at 1024x800 at boot up?
[01:05] <_jason> ubotu: tell stardash about root
[01:06] <soundray> Nogimics: shutdown -h now
[01:06] <metalhedd> rnd_null, same as breezy.
[01:06] <corvax> not sure about canada
[01:06] <_jason> Yango: nope as in reinstall didn't work or nope as in you didn't try yet?
[01:06] <Nogimics> soundray thanks
[01:06] <soundray> Nogimics: with sudo probably.
[01:06] <metalhedd> rnd_null, the ISO you choose determines the default desktop manager.  ubuntu uses gnome, kubuntu uses kde.
[01:06] <metalhedd> rnd_null,  but either one can be converted into the other.
[01:06] <lafferpt> what's the best way to learn linux?
[01:06] <Yango> _jason, nope as in I haven't tried it yet.. I tend to save reinstsalling as a last resource... else I feel like I'm under windows all over again ;)
[01:06] <linuxpoet> I just created a .deb with make deb-pkg from the linux source
[01:06] <rnd_null> where should i try to download it from?
[01:06] <_jason> lafferpt: using it
[01:06] <linuxpoet> but it is trying to use devfs on reboot?
[01:06] <Nogimics> -h didnt do it
[01:07] <metalhedd> rnd_null, the link i gave you, which is also in the topic of this channel
[01:07] <_jason> Yango: well sudo apt-get install --reinstall python python2.4, won't really hurt you any
[01:07] <lafferpt> _jason, no courses needed?
[01:07] <rnd_null> metalhedd, right, but where are the servers located physically?
[01:07] <soundray> lafferpt, dive into it, try it out, work with it. Also, read about command line usage:
[01:07] <ljlolel> I'm trying to install srcltx package for latex, but I keep getting a "srcltx.sty" not found , error -- the package has no srcltx.sty file -- i followed the wiki.. what do i do?
[01:07] <soundray> !cli
[01:07] <_jason> ubotu: tell lafferpt about rute
[01:07] <ubotu> CLI means Command Line Interface, aka the terminal or console. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands or http://www.linuxcommand.org/ or http://www.tuxfiles.org
[01:07] <rnd_null> metalhedd, do you konw?
[01:07] <_jason> lafferpt: reading helps too :), the link ubotu just gave you is excellent imo
[01:08] <metalhedd> rnd_null, i have no idea... i think theres only one server that currently has dapper though... theres a torrent for it too if you like.
[01:08] <rnd_null> metalhedd, oh, there's only one
[01:08] <rnd_null> metalhedd, yep
[01:08] <lafferpt> _jason, thanks!
[01:08] <ramza3> what is the shortcut for minimizing all apps, I dont have a WINDOWS key
[01:08] <PuppiesOnAcid> Hm, I installed gstreamer0.8-faad (contained within gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse), and AAC files still won't play...any ideas?
[01:09] <metalhedd> ctrl+alt+d
[01:09] <MdSalih> anyone know if theres any known issues with dapper 6.04 & ATI Radeon Mobility X300 card ?
[01:09] <gnomefreak> MdSalih: dapper talk needs to go to #ubuntu+1
[01:09] <ljlolel> Is dapper going to be called 6.05?
[01:09] <linuxpoet> anyone got any ideas?
[01:09] <PuppiesOnAcid> Hm, I installed gstreamer0.8-faad (contained within gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse), and AAC files still won't play...any ideas?
[01:09] <Jemt> I have just had an accident - is there someone in here with the _original_ sources.list for Breezy 5.10 for AMD 64 ?
[01:09] <Suture> damn.... I am having the worst time coloring the text in my term and irssi its pissing me off.. i wish there was a guide
[01:09] <lafferpt> _jason, the pdf seems to be unavailable :S
[01:09] <rnd_null> metalhedd, ok, dapper is going at about 70k...i can wait
[01:10] <Steve^> How might I open the task manager?
[01:10] <jdmpike> anyone in here using ekiga?
[01:10] <gazanfer> now i can browse files on other computers in my network. but how can i copy them to my own computer? i can copy them, but can not paste...
[01:10] <bimberi> ljlolel: possibly 6-06, but no decision made as yet
[01:10] <metalhedd> rnd_null, sweet deal, I only get 20. :( but the new motherboard wont be here until tomorrow so I have to wait anyhow
[01:10] <mecanismo22> hi
[01:10] <lafferpt> oi
[01:10] <_jason> lafferpt: google for the rute tutorial, I am sure there are a lot of mirrors
[01:10] <FliesLikeABrick> thanks soundray  but now I cannot hibernate since my ubuntu installation doesn't know where the swap is.  what is the fix for that?
[01:10] <lafferpt> _jason, ok I'll do it
[01:10] <ljlolel> has anyone gotten the srcltx package working in latex on ubuntu?
[01:11] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i'm not sure where its coming from, but i never get anything that fast other than from taiwan or tokyo
[01:11] <_jason> stardash: what is not working?
[01:11] <rnd_null> metalhedd, have you seen the 'Damn Small Machine'?
[01:11] <metalhedd> rnd_null, probably taiwan or tokyo then. :)    haven't seen that, what is it?
[01:11] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i'll find a link...hang on...
[01:12] <stardash> hmmm
[01:12] <mecanismo22> i'm running ubuntu dapper in a toshiba satellite A80 with an i810 graphic card but i have no rendering, when i run dpkg-reconfigure xorg-driver and it try to detect my X server, it says that there's no X server for my hardware
[01:12] <stardash> still can get into root
[01:12] <_jason> stardash: you read the wiki page right?
[01:12] <jetscreamer> you use i810
[01:12] <mecanismo22> I installed Xgl but now i've returnet to Xorg and it's in Xorg where it happens
[01:12] <jetscreamer> iirc
[01:12] <soundray> FliesLikeABrick: point the kernel to the right partition by editing the swap line in /etc/fstab
[01:13] <urmom> any help with this onboard audio support would be great Realteck ALC655 6-Channel AC97 CODEC
[01:13] <jetscreamer> ah no idea
[01:13] <rnd_null> metalhedd, http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/store/Mini_ITX_Systems/Damn_Small_Machine
[01:13] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i'm really thinking about picking one up, just for fun
[01:13] <urmom> Seveas
[01:13] <bimberi> Steve^: Applications -> System Tools -> System Monitor
[01:14] <Enthusiast78> Greetings! Anyone could tell me what 'breezy-backports' is all about?
[01:14] <gazanfer> now i can browse files on other computers in my network. but how can i copy them to my own computer? i can copy them, but can not paste...
[01:14] <charlesg3> DSM looks pretty sweet
[01:14] <Enthusiast78> Please...
[01:14] <FliesLikeABrick> k soundray  I forgot that my fstab would be all wrong
[01:14] <FliesLikeABrick> brb rebooting
[01:14] <_jason> Enthusiast78: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports
[01:14] <Yango> _jason, reinstall didn't help!!!
[01:14] <metalhedd> rnd_null, that's a pretty good price too... more than I can afford though :)
[01:15] <metalhedd> rnd_null, I'd use it for a HTPC for sure. I've been wanting to build one forever.
[01:15] <_jason> Yango: don't know what would cause that... did google turn up anything with the errors?
[01:15] <rnd_null> metalhedd, i'm just waiting for my computer to die so my wife cant complain about it
[01:15] <rnd_null> metalhedd, when i buy one
[01:16] <metalhedd> rnd_null, HAH!
[01:16] <rnd_null> metalhedd, of course, i'll fix my computer after i get it ;)
[01:16] <gazanfer> !samba
[01:16] <ubotu> I guess samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[01:17] <metalhedd> rnd_null, yeah, I dont think it would make that great of a desktop replacement, but it'd be great for a home theatre or even just a little server of some sort.
[01:18] <rnd_null> metalhedd, yeah, i'm sure i could find a use for it, they also offer a different one that looks a car stereo amp, its so you can install it into your car and run music or gps or whatever
[01:18] <ljlolel> raise your hand if you use latex
[01:18] <rnd_null> metalhedd, maybe wi-fi and surf for free..
[01:18] <PuppiesOnAcid> Is there no gstreamer-quicktime in the repos anymore?
[01:18] <_jason> ljlolel: best to just ask your question
[01:18] <fiveiron> anyone using nvidia?
[01:19] <rnd_null> fiveiron, i am
[01:19] <_jason> ubotu: tell fiveiron about anyone
[01:19] <metalhedd> rnd_null, now I just need a car :)  seriously though, I've been wanting to build myself a little mini pc for soooo long, I just can't get the money for it.
[01:19] <fiveiron> lol
[01:19] <gazanfer> now i can browse files on other computers in my network. but how can i copy them to my own computer? i can copy them, but can not paste...
[01:19] <Suture> Is there a detailed Xdefault howto somewhere?
[01:19] <fiveiron> ok:  I installed xserver-xgl (and all the other apps for xgl found in the wiki) and the nvidia-glx drivers.  now I only get 640x480 res.  Any ideas?
[01:19] <isai> hi
[01:20] <Shoe> this is probably a dumb question...I have very little experience with Linux (about a half-hour with a mepis live cd). Would it be a bad idea to install Dapper Test 5 on my system? Is it stable enough?
[01:20] <isai> how do I change the font sizes in any wxWindows application ?
[01:20] <_jason> fiveiron: no option in system > preferences > screen resolution?
[01:20] <Jambon> I tried to delete a 6.6GB folder, and now the folder diappeared, but no space was freed
[01:20] <fiveiron> _jason: correct...
[01:20] <Jambon> anyone know what might be wrong?
[01:20] <Unity> fiveiron: #ubuntu-xgl or something might know
[01:20] <_jason> ubotu: tell fiveiron about fixres
[01:20] <Overand> Shoe: tests are fine, if you're just *testing*
[01:20] <adam_> What's a way to get OpenOffice 2 final release? (I had asked before and received the debs by doko, but when I install them they say they depend on packages that Ubuntu doesn't have, well versions that they don't have)
[01:20] <elkbuntu> shoe and have a backup of a stable linux or even windows
[01:21] <Overand> Shoe: if there is going to be any proximity to data you would be upset if you lost...
[01:21] <Jambon> 6.6GB on a 14GB disk is a huge amount of space that simply vanished
[01:21] <_jason> !ooo
[01:21] <ubotu> _jason: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:21] <isai> it doesn't look the same as the gnome & kde programs...
[01:21] <_jason> !ooo2
[01:21] <ubotu> To upgrade to OOo 2.0.x, see http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2005-October/012520.html (add one of the 'deb' lines to sources.list and update+upgrade)

[01:21] <ramza3> for example, when launching bash scripts from the desktop
[01:21] <Enthusiast78> _jason, Got! Thanks a lot!
[01:21] <adam_> _jason, Thank you, I'll look into that :)
[01:21] <_jason> adam_: pastebin the errors you got and your /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:22] <Unity> Jambon: find / -name "your file name" -exec echo \{} \;
[01:22] <_jason> adam_: (I just noticed that those are the doko debs)
[01:22] <Jambon> Unity: what?
[01:22] <Shoe> the live cd coudn't possibly affect my data, right?
[01:22] <Unity> Jambon: search your filesystem for the files you deleted, some widows managers put deleted stuff in odd places
[01:22] <adam_> _jason, "(add one of the 'deb' lines to sources.list and update+upgrade)"
[01:22] <adam_> _jason, what does it mean by this?
[01:23] <adam_> _jason, I figure I have to write something to sources.list, but as to what I should be writing.. that I'm not sure :/
[01:23] <_jason> adam_: what architecture do you use?
[01:23] <drummer87> hello... I'm downloading flight 5 with jigdo, but have come to the end and there are 114 files that can't be found, due to them being changed on the server... what do I do?? where can i get them from?
[01:23] <adam_> _jason, i386
[01:24] <vader> help please folks, I now have my broadcom lit up, but when it tries to get DHCP it looks on the wrong subnet...anyone help please?
[01:24] <gazanfer> i'm sorry, i'm asking this for the fourth time, but i really need help:
[01:24] <gazanfer> now i can browse files on other computers in my network. but how can i copy them to my own computer? i can copy them, but can not paste...
[01:24] <_jason> adam_: then you just add the line ``deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2 ./'' and then run 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'
[01:24] <Enthusiast78> Anyone successfully connecting a Nokia phone through USB with Ubuntu?
[01:24] <Jambon> Unity: is there a graphical way to do that?
[01:25] <Xenguy> Jambon: don't fear the command-line, this is linux :-)
[01:25] <Unity> Jambon: yes. i don't know the graphical way, however
[01:25] <Jambon> uh
[01:25] <adam_> _jason, I already downloaded the OOo2 packages (and I'm on dialup, so I'd rather not download them again); where can I put them so that ubuntu will read them instead of redownloading?
[01:25] <Jambon> it turns out I have A LOT of stuff that didn't delete
[01:25] <Jambon> i think the trash is broken
[01:25] <cafuego> adam_: /var/cache/apt/archives
[01:25] <vjHabib> Is there anyone from UbuntuStudio.com????
[01:25] <Unity> Jambon: use rm to delete them for good
[01:26] <cafuego> adam_: Of course, you could run 'dpkg -i <package list>' as well.
[01:26] <Unity> Jambon: warning, you don't get to recover rm'ed stuff
[01:26] <systemofadown> is there rc.local equiv for ubuntu?
[01:26] <cafuego> Jambon: Yes, it is.
[01:26] <adam_> cafuego, though I get dependency problems when I do that
[01:26] <cafuego> adam_: Did you download the *correct* OOo packages?
[01:26] <cafuego> systemofadown: bootmish.sh
[01:27] <filipstadler> Hello i am trying to enable sound on my ubuntu installation on a toshiba 470cdt laptop -  what tool do i use to configure the sound ?
[01:27] <adam_> cafuego, depends on what you mean by "correct" I downloaded the OpenOffice 2 final release packages made by doko
[01:27] <natroll--> 1017 packages to upgrade from stock x86 breezy install to dapper
[01:27] <cafuego> adam_: Are they designed for your specific ubuntu release?
[01:27] <Phocion> hey all....anyone here experienced with TightVNC?
[01:27] <urmom> how do i get in a shell to install linux nvidia sound drivers?
[01:28] <adam_> cafuego, is "breezy" 5.04?
[01:28] <_jason> urmom: accessories > terminal
[01:28] <_jason> ubotu: tell urmom about nvidia
[01:28] <cafuego> urmom: Linux nvidia sound drivers are in the kernel.
[01:28] <systemofadown> cafuego: thanks
[01:28] <urmom> hmm...
[01:28] <cafuego> adam_: no, breezy is 5.10. 5.04 is hoary.
[01:28] <crimsun> filipstadler: cat /proc/asound/modules
[01:28] <PuppiesOnAcid> ubotu: tell me about nvidia
[01:28] <adam_> cafuego, oh
[01:28] <adam_> cafuego, I suppose this is why they aren't working :)
[01:29] <cafuego> adam_: If you have packages for breezy, they won't work.
[01:29] <adam_> cafuego, how would I upgrade to breezy? I'm on dialup -- my friends has 5.10 cds, should I just get a cd from him and upgrade somehow?
[01:29] <crimsun> adam_: yes
[01:29] <cafuego> adam_: Yes, get a CD, insert, click 'Upgrade' (I think)
[01:30] <_jason> !upgrade

[01:40] <lcore> which system users account rally need the /bin/sh shell. Which can be replaced with /bin/false or /bin/noshell?
[01:40] <gnomefreak> htrp: join #xgl-ubuntu for more info on it
[01:40] <crimsun> mikeazorin: it's installed by default for GNOME
[01:40] <lcore> *really
[01:40] <crimsun> mikeazorin: if you want to _compile_ something, install build-essential and libgtk2.0-dev
[01:40] <cmpalmer> gnomefreak: other way around
[01:40] <htrp> worth installing xgl?
[01:40] <gnomefreak> htrp: no
[01:40] <cmpalmer> htrp: not easy
[01:41] <gnomefreak> cmpalmer: other way around what?
[01:41] <htrp> why not and why no?

[01:41] <FlannelKing> htrp: you can get a feel for it, theres a liveCD of xgl (not ubuntu based) called Kororaa or something like that.
[01:41] <gnomefreak> there is an xgl-ubuntu channel
[01:41] <htrp> kororaa linux
[01:41] <htrp> lol
[01:41] <Grark> you guys ROCK

[01:42] <oklinux> kororaa what is that ?
[01:42] <htrp> but what is it foreal?
[01:42] <htrp> that xgl thing, i googled, and still don't understand
[01:42] <FlannelKing> Its a liveCD highlighting XGL, pretty spiffy, only 442mb, check it out.
[01:42] <gnomefreak> dont be people get confused on why there are 2 channels for it
[01:42] <lcore> bimberi: it's an interesting remark. However doesn't answer the question. :)
[01:43] <crimsun> PuppiesOnAcid: the same reason Debian doesn't

[01:44] <htrp> forget this xgl thing
[01:44] <htrp> i have to recompile to get it installed
[01:44] <htrp> and i have to have dupper
[01:44] <htrp> lol
[01:44] <lcore> bimberi: Right.
[01:44] <V4Vendetta> Morpsemia, i don't recommend using dapper right now, as it is broken
[01:44] <crimsun> PuppiesOnAcid: google for Debian and firefox
[01:44] <Morpsemia> it broke? what
[01:45] <Morpsemia> 's wrong with it?
[01:45] <Morpsemia> ... extra return in there
[01:45] <cmpalmer> htrp: it's an X server architecture supporting hardware acceleration of all X, OpenGL and XVideo applications
[01:45] <revolutionary> its not done ........... ;]

[01:46] <Suture> What file can I use to set the color for all text in any term?
[01:46] <htrp> ive read that already
[01:46] <Snarkfish> Would anyone support me putting thermal compound on the northbridge chip to assist the fan? The fan isn't very efficient, and the idle temperature is much higher than my a64 3200+ oced to 3800+ speeds.
[01:46] <htrp> prolly like 4 times
[01:46] <cmpalmer> htrp: then what is your question?
[01:46] <htrp> nothing
[01:46] <htrp> i said screw xgl
[01:46] <julianobastos> creating my wiki from ubuntu, can i use html codes?
[01:46] <htrp> i aint ready for it
[01:47] <crimsun> filipstadler: sec
[01:47] <Yango> what's a way to check the oreder of packages updated/installed?
[01:47] <gnomefreak> Suture: you can set colors in the terminal settings
[01:47] <gnomefreak> julianobastos: i havent found a way to do it yet :(
[01:47] <Suture> gnomefreak: what about irssi? and things
[01:47] <Enthusiast78> What's the best application to 'normalize' a bunch of MP3? I have been using 'mp3gain', but maybe you can recommend something else...
[01:47] <julianobastos> gnomefreak, if you find tell me :] 
[01:48] <Suture> gnomefreak: I want the colors to apply to everything in my term
[01:48] <gnomefreak> Suture: i set my gnome term to black bg and white text and it stays that way :)
[01:48] <gnomefreak> Suture: they do
[01:48] <linuxpoet> why would 2.6.15 be trying to use devfs?
[01:48] <Suture> gnomefreak: i mean different colors, like my myname@hostname:~$ all different colors
[01:48] <linuxpoet> or is it that Ubuntu Breezy requires devfs?
[01:48] <gnomefreak> Suture: once you change the color settings close terma nd restart it will take affect and stay that way
[01:48] <linuxpoet> and 2.6.15 doesn't have it
[01:49] <gnomefreak> Suture: i dont think so
[01:49] <V4Vendetta> Suture, the colors depict different file types / folders
[01:49] <V4Vendetta> Suture, example: green is executable
[01:49] <Suture> V4Vendetta: What file do I use to set those colors so that they apply to all terms?
[01:49] <william> hey i tried opening a .rar with archive manager and it said it couldnt open it, is there an alternative?
[01:49] <V4Vendetta> Suture, .bashrc
[01:50] <Suture> V4Vendetta: what if I use zsh?
[01:50] <urmom> how do i get my mobo components to be recognized as not Generic in device manager?
[01:50] <V4Vendetta> william, is the archive corrupt maybe
[01:50] <Unity> Suture: maybe if you change $PS1 to something with color codes in it
[01:50] <V4Vendetta> Suture, dunno then
[01:50] <william> i dont think so, it says archive type not supported V4Vendetta
[01:50] <mzinz> I know its possible to play games on Ubuntu/Unix systems.  Which games can I / can't I play?  Is the only requirement that they are in the right format? Or hows that work?
[01:50] <william> i tried 4 diff ones and it says that for all of them, V4Vendetta
[01:51] <FunnyLookinHat> mzinz, You might be interested in Cedega
[01:51] <FunnyLookinHat> mzinz, it allows you to play windows games on linux
[01:51] <urmom> how do i get my mobo components to be recognized as not Generic in device manager?
[01:51] <mzinz> FunnyLookinHat, is it like virtual pc for mac?
[01:51] <Suture> V4Vendetta: Is there a place that tells me what color0-15 apply to? like bold text, text, underlined text
[01:51] <Draconicus> When I try to start X, my monitor goes blank or sleeps, even though the resolution, sync, and soforth are correct. What could be the problem?
[01:51] <FunnyLookinHat> mzinz, yes, very similiar.  cehck it out at #cedega
[01:51] <Unity> mzinz: games written for linux should run in linux, games written for windows MAY work inder cedega or mine
[01:51] <Agrajag> FunnyLookinHat: what, it's nothing like virtual PC
[01:51] <ateves> can i get the distribution's name or version via console command?
[01:51] <Unity> s/mine/wine
[01:51] <Agrajag> it doesn't virtualize anything
[01:52] <mzinz> Unity, whats mine
[01:52] <V4Vendetta> Suture, i have never messed with it, so i don't know
[01:52] <FunnyLookinHat> Agrajag, how is it nothing like?  You used point2play?
[01:52] <Unity> mzinz: i meant wine
[01:52] <urmom> can i get some help with devicemanager prompt recognizing my onboard soundcard?
[01:52] <Agrajag> FunnyLookinHat: they don't work anything like each other
[01:52] <Unity> mzinz: m and w are right next to each other...
[01:52] <Agrajag> virtual PC is an emulator
[01:52] <schmity> Unity: whats wine?
[01:52] <crimsun> filipstadler: first try: sudo modprobe snd-opl3sa2
[01:52] <Agrajag> it translates CPU instructions from PPC to x86
[01:52] <FunnyLookinHat> Ok, well here is the point.
[01:53] <FunnyLookinHat> They may not work similiar in technicality, but to the user they do.
[01:53] <Unity> mzinz: at any rate, cedega will probably work better than wine. wine is a windows emulator. cedega is a DirectX emulator
[01:53] <filipstadler> crimsun, Ok i looks fine :-)
[01:53] <Unity> mzinz: and cedega is a fork off wine
[01:53] <william> so no ideas for an alternate .RAR opener?
[01:53] <crimsun> filipstadler: did it return you to a prompt immediately?
[01:53] <FunnyLookinHat> yes, cedega works much better and is more user friendly...  however for a good version of cedega they charge 5$ a month for a minimum 3 months.
[01:53] <mzinz> Unity, ohhh i see
[01:53] <Xenguy> Hi - I have a Firefox problem.  For some unknown reason I opened FF this morning, and my bookmarks were gone :-)  Upon investigation I found that somehow FF has generated a new one of those '/home/me/.mozilla/firefox/asdf1qwe.default/' directories, so that explains the problem.  I can see the old 'blah.default' so my question is, what is the best way to reconfigure FF to use the older/original one?
[01:53] <mzinz> Unity, yeah a dX emu sounds nicer :)
[01:53] <intelikey> crimsun just an update on my sound issue.   i have sound working, playing .ogg file now.  but i still get "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory"   i'm using aumix to control volumes.   it's a work around, not a fix.
[01:53] <Draconicus> I really need X to work on this machine, and it won't work with this monitor, though it has in the past. Can somebody please help me identify and fix the problem?
[01:54] <urmom> sudo modprobe snd-opl3sa2
[01:54] <urmom> fatal errors
[01:54] <V4Vendetta> Draconicus, any errors?
[01:54] <crimsun> intelikey: are you using ``alsamixer'' or ``alsamixer -c0''?
[01:54] <william> Xenguy, why dont you just copy over the old files into the new folder?
[01:54] <intelikey> crimsun both do the same.
[01:54] <Draconicus> V4Vendetta: I don't know. The monitor blanks or goes to sleep, and I can't return to the display. I'd have to check a log to tell you.
[01:54] <Morpsemia> before I dive into this thing, could someone elaborate as to why I shouldn't try out dapper?
[01:55] <filipstadler> crimsun,  no it says No such device
[01:55] <Draconicus> V4Vendetta: If you'll stick to helping me, I'll be back in a minute on my server with information regarding what the log says.
[01:55] <stalefries> Morpsemia: it's unstable. wait until the official release.
[01:55] <zim> how can i set up ubuntu to act as a gate way for a windows machine thus keeping it safe fron the wireless network
[01:55] <kbrooks> um.
[01:55] <crimsun> intelikey: ok, so any oss-based mixer will suffice. Remind me of your sound hardware again?
[01:55] <Xenguy> william: that is one way (and I had a few ideas), I just wondered whether there was a 'best way'
[01:55] <gazanfer> how can i set ls to display full path of each file? (yes i did man ls)
[01:55] <Xenguy> william: or a 'firefox way' :-)
[01:55] <william> Xenguy, do you need a program to do it for you?
[01:55] <V4Vendetta> Draconicus, ok
[01:56] <intelikey> ad1816  isa card crimsun
[01:56] <Draconicus> Morpsemia: It's close to finished, but it's not quite ready, yet. I run Dapper on a few systems, and I don't have any major problems, but there are a few bugs here and there, and some unpleasant temporary changes.
[01:56] <william> Xenguy, you can import the bookmarks.html file from the old folder
[01:56] <william> if you jsut need the bookmarkas
[01:56] <stalefries> Xenguy: william's idea is the best and easiest.
[01:56] <filipstadler> crimsun, it was unable to insert snd-opl3sa2.ko)
[01:56] <FunnyHat_Away> gazanfer, well, ls only lists the files in your present working directory
[01:56] <Xenguy> william: I'd rather do it 'all in one shot'
[01:56] <FunnyHat_Away> gazanfer, if you are using it basically.
[01:56] <crimsun> intelikey: ok, and are you using snd-ad1816a?
[01:57] <william> Xenguy, then just copy them over 'all in one shot'
[01:57] <Xenguy> stalefries: OK, what about mv'ing old dir to new dir-name?
[01:57] <Morpsemia> considering it's a xp box right now, a few bugs and unstable don't sound like convincing arguments....
[01:57] <gazanfer> FunnyHat_Away, so how can i search for a file? i can do search, but it doesnt display path in both console and x, so it doesnt make any good...
[01:57] <crimsun> filipstadler: try: sudo modprobe snd-sb8
[01:57] <stalefries> That would work too, I suppose.
[01:57] <intelikey> crimsun not like a lot of people still use isa pnp sound cards, but some of us do.     yes i modprobed  snd-ad1816a   and  ran aumix and brought the volumes up then everything works  but alsamixer can't start...
[01:58] <Xenguy> william: OK I'll do it the *nix way then :-)
[01:58] <FunnyHat_Away> gazanfer, use locate
[01:58] <FunnyHat_Away> gazanfer, you may have to run sudo updatedb first
[01:58] <stalefries> Morpsemia: Use the now-official Breezy Badger. It's the current stable.
[01:58] <crimsun> intelikey: what are the permissions on /dev/snd/*
[01:58] <Morpsemia> I've ran breezy on it, I couldn't get the latest nvidia drivers to compile
[01:59] <gazanfer> FunnyHat_Away, is there a way to do it in x? (xfce4)
[01:59] <kbrooks> can anyone discuss the 6 week delay here?
[01:59] <stalefries> Morpsemia: Sorry to hear that.
[01:59] <intelikey>  /bin/ls: /dev/snd/: No such file or directory
[01:59] <unix_infidel> !tell unix_infidel about sources
[01:59] <Xenguy> gazanfer: open a terminal
[01:59] <FunnyHat_Away> gazanfer, Not that I know of.  Just open up a terminal (if you are on xfce right click should bring up a menu allowing u to open aa terminal)
[01:59] <filipstadler> crimsun, almost the same on my old mandrake i needed to put some parameteres in lilo
[01:59] <stalefries> Morpsemia: i've never tried that, so I can't help you with that.
[01:59] <intelikey> crimsun not using udev now.
[01:59] <kbrooks> can anyone discuss the 6 week delay here?

[02:02] <`NeRVaL> ] BreliC[ : Mine works
[02:02] <] BreliC[> kbrooks, lol.. must it?  :)
[02:02] <kbrooks> ] BreliC[, it must.
[02:03] <intelikey> crimsun k that seems to have made the devices.   alsamixer works now.
[02:03] <Drac[Server] > What the hell? This old AT system reboots when I attempt to boot it... Odd. I'm just going to put Breezy on the thing. I dunno. I figured Dapper would be lighter and easier on the hardware. :\
[02:03] <crimsun> intelikey: excellent.
[02:03] <] BreliC[> `NeRVaL, i had a few issues when installing it in Vmware, just wanted to make sure it was safe before doing the real install
[02:03] <balu1> how good is vm ware?
[02:03] <V4Vendetta> balu1, good
[02:03] <evian> balul: its good
[02:03] <] BreliC[> balu1, it's great
[02:03] <Morpsemia> I guess I'll try breezy again, but If i can't get the latests nvidia installed again, I'm asking for help
[02:03] <balu1> really?
[02:03] <V4Vendetta> yes
[02:04] <balu1> is it fast??
[02:04] <V4Vendetta> best virtual machine stuff
[02:04] <V4Vendetta> if you have a fast pc it is
[02:04] <intelikey> that's all it was missing, i had a feeling it was just a device node but lacked the knowledge to build the device....
[02:04] <] BreliC[> especially when you don't want to reboot to do stupid things in windows
[02:04] <balu1> how would it go on a laptop w/ p4 3 ghz and 1.5 gig ram?
[02:04] <] BreliC[> balu1, should be fine
[02:04] <V4Vendetta> balu1, perfectly
[02:04] <balu1> i wanted it for a whiel.. but i didnt know if it was any good?
[02:04] <`NeRVaL> |BreliC| : You can always edit your grub menu, I have Dapper on 2nd hd and it works good with me.
[02:04] <crimsun> intelikey: yeah, your udev statement was the tip
[02:04] <balu1> YES!
[02:04] <balu1> thank god :D
[02:04] <V4Vendetta> balu1, i used to run it on this machine 3ghz @ 1gig ram
[02:04] <V4Vendetta> no problems
[02:04] <crimsun> filipstadler: what was the result from ``sudo modprobe snd-sb8''?
[02:04] <balu1> nice.
[02:04] <balu1> so i can play windows games
[02:04] <V4Vendetta> winows xp
[02:05] <] BreliC[> `NeRVaL, so let Dapper install its grub conf. then change it once i'm in dapper?
[02:05] <V4Vendetta> yea you can
[02:05] <balu1> and then jst altab to linux
[02:05] <balu1> :D
[02:05] <intelikey> crimsun well i mentioned it yesterday but in a more obscure statement.
[02:05] <NickGarvey> when I boot I get the following error "Kernel panic - Not Syncing: kmem_cache_create(): failed to create slab 'size-32'"
[02:05] <NickGarvey> I just added RAM to my system
[02:05] <intelikey> but thanks,  and next time i'll try to make all pertanant info plain crimsun
[02:05] <V4Vendetta> NickGarvey, remove it and see if same problem
[02:05] <] BreliC[> balu1, not sure you can play games on it though
[02:05] <intelikey> or more plain
[02:06] <NickGarvey> alright, might take a while, not fun to put in and out, SIMM RAM
[02:06] <balu1> ] brelic[ oh.. :(
[02:06] <`NeRVaL> |Brelic| : You can choose any of them, (I also have gentoo on the 1st hd) if any problems appears because of grub, later on you can easily fix it.
[02:06] <] BreliC[> balu1, at least i haven't had any luck with it.  your vidcard is recognized as a vmware virtual device
[02:06] <V4Vendetta> balu1, you can ..
[02:06] <V4Vendetta> balu1, depends what game
[02:06] <balu1> world of warcraft
[02:06] <balu1> diablo 2
[02:06] <V4Vendetta> balu1, easily
[02:06] <balu1> counter strike

[02:06] <balu1> that type of stuf
[02:06] <] BreliC[> `NeRVaL, thanks

[02:06] <balu1> i jst found out i wont have to quit linux ;p cuz somehow i got direct rendering to work on my card.
[02:06] <] BreliC[> V4Vendetta, but something like Splinter Cell won't work, correct?
[02:07] <V4Vendetta> ] BreliC[, probably nothing heavily graphical
[02:07] <balu1> counter strike tho?
[02:07] <balu1> i dont play any heavy graphical games
[02:07] <V4Vendetta> balu1, yea
[02:07] <V4Vendetta> balu1, source or regular
[02:07] <balu1> k , and what about n64 emulated stuf?
[02:07] <balu1> regular
[02:07] <V4Vendetta> yea
[02:07] <evian> I used Automatix once and it made me create a root password. Now how do I get rid of it so only sudo can be used again?
[02:07] <balu1> source = too high res for me
[02:07] <] BreliC[> V4Vendetta, yeah.  it won't let me install nvidia drivers because according to the virtual machine, there is no nvidia card
[02:07] <V4Vendetta> and n64 will work fine
[02:07] <O_Rei_do_Gado> i cant't install mdac 2.8 under crossover in ubuntu.... any ideas?
[02:07] <NickGarvey> mmm do I need place holders do you know V4Vendetta?

[02:08] <balu1> really?
[02:08] <balu1> i have access to the corp ;p but if the free works ill use it
[02:08] <`NeRVaL> babo: it is not on the trash surely right?
[02:08] <raindog> After installing I'm getting the error "x server failed to load" .  I've tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to try and reconfigure, but to no avail.  Can someone give me some help?
[02:08] <crimsun> filipstadler: what if you use ``sudo modprobe snd-sb8 dma8=1 irq=7 port=0x220''?
[02:09] <NickGarvey> mm
[02:09] <NickGarvey> the beeps are Generally this is caused by a memory chip that is not seated properly. Reseat  the memory chips.
[02:09] <babo> `NeRVaL: hi, I've been looking for trash, but can't find it - where is it ? ... pls don't tell me Desktop
[02:10] <Morpsemia> in gnome look at the bottom bar, far right
[02:10] <intelikey> it seems the links2 does not accept -geometry statements in .Xsession file,  any way to possion it ?
[02:10] <filipstadler> crimsun, its almost the same...
[02:10] <htrp> how do you take screenshot with cmdline?
[02:10] <htrp> what's the command?
[02:10] <crimsun> filipstadler: "almost"?
[02:10] <`NeRVaL> babo : http://recover.sourceforge.net/linux/  this might help,
[02:10] <filipstadler> crimsun, its the same..
[02:11] <babo> `NeRVaL: thanks ... just out of interest though, where is trash usually stored ?
[02:11] <filipstadler> crimsun, but the parameteres look fine... just like the one used on my old mandrake.
[02:11] <V4Vendetta> how do i get sudo apt-get update to run once a day?
[02:11] <void^> rm -r doesn't store trash, it eats files right away.
[02:12] <crimsun> filipstadler: what did you use under Mandrake?
[02:12] <gnomefreak> babo: in gnome lower right corner to the right of the workspaces

[02:12] <V4Vendetta> gnomefreak, okay
[02:12] <silvaran> Can I get gaim to do the /msg nickserv thingy on connect?

[02:12] <V4Vendetta> k
[02:13] <bimberi> babo: ~/.Trash (but as void^ said...)
[02:13] <`NeRVaL> babo: it is not stored if you delete thru rm
[02:13] <gnomefreak> night all
[02:13] <V4Vendetta> night
[02:13] <`NeRVaL> babo: if not, i have trash icon on my panel; i just click on it :) also this can help : http://www.data-recovery-software.net/Linux_Recovery.shtml
[02:14] <intelikey> V4Vendetta if you can change it to your liking.   man cron for more info
[02:15] <void^> alias rm to rm -i or use zsh if you can't deal with lost files due to typos ;)
[02:15] <Morpsemia> now for something completely diffrent, I've got me a pocketpc -  any chance on getting it to work with breezy?
[02:16] <intelikey> void^ yeah i edit /etc/profile  and add a few alisaes like that    df -h     rm -i        ls --color=auto     and so forth
[02:16] <NickGarvey> what is the minimum RAM needed to run breezy?
[02:16] <balu1> hmm..

I click "finish and write changes" and it just returns to the previous menu.  Can anyone help?  I got the partioning tool to work fine when resizing a partition on my win2kpro box.
[02:18] <intelikey> k  it will run in 16m  if you don't run a lot of needless crap

[02:18] <crimsun> filipstadler: ok. snd-sb8 should work because it's generic, but you can try snd-opl3sa2 without isapnp.
[02:18] <intelikey>  Mem usage: 27.1/92.4 MB (29%)
[02:18] <crimsun> filipstadler: the first thing you'll need to do is disable pnp in bios.

[02:19] <Snake__> Is there a way to add more destops in gnome?
[02:19] <NickGarvey> mm wonder if it will boot though
[02:19] <NickGarvey> its been booting the kernel for a very long time
[02:19] <silvaran> Snake__: do you have the workspace switcher somewhere on one of your panels?
[02:19] <silvaran> Snake__: if so, right-click, properties
[02:19] <void^> if it boots with a fat initrd it might hurt
[02:19] <Snake__> silvaran: I did that but I still only see 4 there
[02:20] <user_> hi
[02:20] <user_> can someone tell me how to install a deb file?
[02:20] <Kyral> !deb
[02:20] <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)
[02:20] <filipstadler> crimsun,  its diabled in the bios . but i used to pass a parameter to the kernel on mandrake... but can't rember it now
[02:20] <silvaran> Snake__: right-click, preferences, up the number of workspaces.
[02:20] <PuppiesOnAcid> Anyone know how to set a slide's background in Impress?
[02:20] <Snake__> silvaran: I did...
[02:21] <Snake__> would XGL have something to do with it maybe..
[02:21] <Steve^> !tar
[02:21] <filipstadler> crimsun,  its late here and I have to go to sleep - tnx I will return i have som hints now...
[02:21] <silvaran> Snake__: probably.. it handles workspaces a little differently.  Not sure how to configure compiz (if that's what you're using).
[02:22] <crimsun> filipstadler: should be able to get it working, hang a sec
[02:22] <filipstadler> crimsun, ok
[02:23] <Unity> is it possible to use kde with xgl + compiz or whatever the setup is?
[02:23] <NickGarvey> alright, the moment I try to put in one of these RAM sticks it gives me the error

[02:27] <CanadianSnow> I said that because I got XChat for windows... and It doesn't have the "Ubuntu Servers" or w.e on the list when u get it
[02:28] <Unity> i even tab completed the wrong nick
[02:28] <filipstadler> crimsun,  no luck... like it's missing some modules
[02:28] <silvaran> CanadianSnow: freenode.net has a list of master servers and linked servers.

[02:28] <raindog> intelikey - I don't understand.
[02:28] <CanadianSnow> what? :s
[02:28] <crimsun> filipstadler: ok, that just means we inverted some of the parameters

[02:31] <Xen> hello. I have a noobish question. I have set up apache server and it works when I go to http://localhost:9999. how would I find out what the address is so that others can access from the web?
[02:32] <tritium> paulthompson949: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:32] <vars> ha ha very funny i faled to mention that i don't have ubuntu
[02:32] <Steve^> Xen, it's your ip with :9999 on the end
[02:32] <NickGarvey> Xen, go to a site such as www.ipchicken.com
[02:32] <paulthompson949> cool... lemme try
[02:32] <vars> i have ubuntu server
[02:32] <intelikey> paulthompson949 sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:32] <raindog> intelikey: chown 1000:1000 /home/raindog:  Operation not permitted.
[02:32] <NickGarvey> the number there should tell you Xen
[02:32] <Xen> tahnks guys, but when I go "what is my ip" in google, it gives me 10 different sites that all give me a diff ip address... what gives?
[02:32] <Steve^> Xen,  open a console, does it show your ip on the command prompt? (It shows mine)
[02:33] <Unity> is there a way to be running a process, then stopping it, shutting off my comp, and then continue it the next day?
[02:33] <intelikey> raindog yeah you have an vfat partition mounted on /home don't you ?
[02:33] <NickGarvey> Steve^: it would probably be his local ip on his network
[02:33] <Steve^> And the difference in IPs is they are all giving the IP of a proxy from your isp, rather than your ip
[02:33] <paulthompson949> it says that it couldnt find the package
[02:33] <Steve^> NickGarvey, oh.. I was under the impression that was my actual ip
[02:33] <ben_underscore> Xen, type ifconfig in a terminal
[02:33] <bimberi> CanadianSnow: most likely port 6667, when you connect you get a message like "Your host is brown.freenode.net[brown.freenode.net/6667] "
[02:33] <Steve^> same as I get in windows
[02:34] <NickGarvey> ben_underscore: that would give him his local also..
[02:34] <NickGarvey> 192.168.*.*
[02:34] <raindog> intelikey: I just installed and haven't logged into the shell yet.  I resized a ntfs partition and added an ext3, fat32, and swap partitions.
[02:34] <silvaran> xen: ipchicken.com would be good -- just look under "Current IP Address" and append ":9999"
[02:34] <cleit0n> where i make download kernel source of ubuntu? to install one modem 537 tiger jet?
[02:34] <NickGarvey> he would need to connect to his router to see what his WAN IP is
[02:34] <r0x0r> hmm how bout a dns xen
[02:34] <r0x0r> ?
[02:34] <r0x0r> ./dns xen
[02:35] <intelikey> raindog do this for me.     mount | grep /home   and show me what it says
[02:35] <Morpsemia> anyone know how to make my speaker quit picking up cellphone noise? It's really annoying
[02:35] <Steve^> NickGarvey, is your ip 24.195.249.41?
[02:35] <NickGarvey> yup
[02:35] <Steve^> and what does it show in the console?
[02:35] <earl_> can i pull and build packages (i.e. apt-get build x) using my standard debian distro and ubuntu sources?
[02:35] <NickGarvey> running windows right now, working on getting linux working, but when I run ifconfig it says 192.168.2.37
[02:35] <Steve^> hmm
[02:35] <raindog> intelikey:  /dev/hda6/ on /home type vfat (rw)
[02:36] <sybariten> Morpsemia: i'm afraid that that will be difficult. If you find a decent method tonight, msg me and i'll be stinking rich tomorrow
[02:36] <void^> wow, vfat /home
[02:36] <Xen> ok, i think it works, it saus server timeout, so that it found me.. but I probably need to open my router, right?
[02:36] <O_Rei_do_Gado> i have problems running winetools had error in (IE)
[02:36] <Xen> 72.137.139.186:9999
[02:36] <paulthompson949> tritium... i am having trouble with doing that... it says that it could not find the packages
[02:36] <Xen> can someone try that?
[02:36] <intelikey> there is your error raindog   home is vfat.   there is no way to set permissions or ownership on vfat.
[02:36] <tritium> paulthompson949: have you updated your package list?
[02:36] <NickGarvey> The page cannot be displayed
[02:36] <Morpsemia> sybariten, I found a method, but I doubt that it's decent, as it involves chucking the phone across the room, it did work though
[02:37] <paulthompson949> how do you do that?
[02:37] <silvaran> Xen: nada
[02:37] <raindog> intelikey:  is there a fix?
[02:37] <tritium> paulthompson949: are you using apt-get, or synaptic, or what?
[02:37] <crimsun> filipstadler: sudo modprobe snd-opl3sa2 isapnp=0 dma1=1 dma2=0 irq=7 midi_port=0x330 fm_port=0x388 wss_port=0x540 sb_port=0x220 port=0x370
[02:37] <Xen> probably router or firewall then...
[02:37] <paulthompson949> well, i tried both
[02:37] <NickGarvey> let me see what you have open Xen
[02:37] <raindog> intelikey:  did I make a mistake while adding the new partitions?
[02:37] <silvaran> Xen: yup
[02:37] <Xen> NickGarvey: how would i show you?
[02:38] <intelikey> raindog yeah  sudo umount /home && sudo adduser    then edit your fstab to mount that partition some place else.
[02:38] <NickGarvey> (The 1667 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: filtered)
[02:38] <NickGarvey> Xen want a router walkthrough?
[02:38] <Morpsemia> NickGarvey, It sounds like your behind a rounter, your 192.168.2 addr is a private IP givin out by your router, you'll need to go admin your router (prob 192.168.2.1 in a web browser) and forward the ports
[02:38] <filipstadler> crimsun, its the same... now i have to go to bed... see you have a nice day :-)
[02:38] <filipstadler> crimsun, and tnx
[02:38] <Xen> DONE it works
[02:38] <Xen> it was firestarter
[02:38] <tritium> paulproteus: have you ever run "sudo apt-get update"?
[02:39] <Xen> 72.137.139.186:9999 try that
[02:39] <ben_underscore> Xen, i can see a web page at that URL
[02:39] <Xen> thanks!
[02:39] <Steve^> Xen, loading
[02:39] <ben_underscore> Xen, 2 frames but no pages
[02:39] <silvaran> Mmm... frames... tag attributes without quotes... I LOVE IT
[02:39] <Xen> yes, that was just a test
[02:39] <raindog> intelikey:  that seems to have done the job.  Thank you very much for your help and patience.  As you can tell I have a lot to learn.
[02:39] <Xen> now i can add
[02:39] <intelikey> raindog example   sudo nano /etc/fstab      change the line that says  /home   to /home/<new users name>/fat32   save and exit nano    then  mkdir /home/<user>/fat32    and reboot.
[02:40] <ben_underscore> Xen, well have fun
[02:40] <Xen> thanks.
[02:40] <raindog> intelikey:  didn't do the fstab party yet.
[02:40] <NickGarvey> .137.139.186):
[02:40] <NickGarvey> PORT     STATE SERVICE
[02:40] <NickGarvey> 9999/tcp open  abyss
[02:40] <Steve^> I'm interested to find out what my ip is now
[02:40] <NickGarvey> 9999/tcp open  http    Apache httpd 2.0.54 ((Ubuntu))
[02:40] <Xen> now i need some other advice. My isp won't allow operating personal; servers. anyway i can get around this so that they would not find out? I followed the same logic as Bittoreent and picked a random port (9999)
[02:40] <paulthompson949> tritium: i suppose that you were talking to me... i just did what you said and it said...unable to lock administration directory
[02:40] <silvaran> We should all have an fstab party, smellican can bring his pork.
[02:40] <intelikey> steve^   ifconfig
[02:41] <Steve^> i thought it was 172.21.13.17, but that is most likely internal
[02:41] <NickGarvey> don't think it is steve..
[02:41] <r0x0r> 138.38.227.0
[02:41] <r0x0r> qsteve
[02:41] <NickGarvey> do you have a router?
[02:41] <CanadianSnow> k, so
[02:41] <r0x0r> and yes 172 is ur internal ip
[02:41] <CanadianSnow> !amsn
[02:41] <ubotu> amsn is probably at http://amsn.sourceforge.net
[02:41] <Steve^> My net goes through the university doo-daa
[02:41] <NickGarvey> 172 is?
[02:41] <NickGarvey> I have never heard of that one
[02:41] <Steve^> wwwcache.bath.ac.uk
[02:41] <CanadianSnow> how do i install a .deb again?
[02:41] <NickGarvey> always been 168 or 192 or 10
[02:41] <CanadianSnow> !.deb
[02:41] <ubotu> CanadianSnow: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:41] <r0x0r> 192 is only for smaller nets
[02:42] <CanadianSnow> !.deb
[02:42] <Steve^> !deb
[02:42] <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)
[02:42] <Steve^> :P
[02:42] <fladd_> hi there
[02:42] <NickGarvey> ooohh
[02:42] <fladd_> is anyone using emacs in here?
[02:42] <NickGarvey> VI power!
[02:42] <Morpsemia> Xen, it depends on if you give them a reason to look. If your not eating up a lot of bandwith they will never notice, if your eating up tons it won't really matter what port your using if they monitor your traffic
[02:42] <Kyral> fladd_, don't start the Editor War
[02:42] <Xen> ok. im going to mess around with my server. thanks for all your help guys!
[02:42] <CanadianSnow> lol thx steve
[02:42] <tritium> paulproteus: do you have synaptic running?
[02:42] <fladd_> no no
[02:42] <paulthompson949> yeah... ok... i see
[02:42] <Steve^> NickGarvey, of all the possible IPs, why would it only start with 1 of those 3 numbers?
[02:42] <Morpsemia> they are auto private ips
[02:42] <CanadianSnow> whats it mean "using !apt from the !repos"?
[02:43] <fladd_> i just want to know what fonts to use in emacs, since my emacs looks terrible...
[02:43] <silvaran> xen: what isp?  I've had good luck with 1720 as a bittorrent port.
[02:43] <silvaran> http://www.n3t.net/Infos/subnets.html
[02:43] <CanadianSnow> like apt-get install amsn kinda deal?
[02:43] <Xen> my isp is rogers.com
[02:43] <NickGarvey> I could tell Xen ;)
[02:43] <Xen> my BT port works fine\
[02:43] <fladd_> look at this: http://fladd.de/phpbb/album_pic.php?pic_id=64
[02:43] <silvaran> Xen: Yeah they filter bittorrent, especially the standard ports, and do other funky stuff to various connections.
[02:43] <NickGarvey> CPE00119552786e-CM014270032311.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com
[02:43] <Xen> my port of choice has been 55600
[02:44] <Xen> thats me.
[02:44] <Steve^> so, my ip is 138.38.227.0 and my internal network is 172.21.13.17. That would explain some problems
[02:44] <intelikey> raindog just a thought.   you did set a food passwd for that new user didn't you?   being uid 1000 it will have sudo root access to everything.
[02:44] <NickGarvey> ja, so that one is good for people on your network, much faster that way, but won't work for other people
[02:44] <Steve^> I can't ping the external one
[02:44] <paulthompson949> tritium: it does it, but it says that it cannot find kubuntu-desktop.... i also tried sudo apt-get install kde and it says that there are a bunch of dependencies
[02:44] <intelikey> hehhe food/good
[02:44] <Xen> so as long as I am not eating up as much bandwidth with my server as I am with my bT, they won't notice, right?
[02:44] <NickGarvey> Steve^ your university most likely blocks pings
[02:44] <Morpsemia> 192.168 ips are usually given out behind a nat, 10 ip are an older idea of the same, and 169.254 are auto ips that you get when your dhcp nic can't find a dhcp server
[02:45] <fladd_> so? anyone using emacs???
[02:45] <tritium> paulthompson949: it's in the main repo...that doesn't make much sense
[02:45] <Steve^> NickGarvey, it blocks traceroutes, at least from me going out
[02:45] <NickGarvey> fladd_: what do you need?
[02:45] <Morpsemia> Xen, yeah, just don't give them a reason to sniff the packets
[02:45] <raindog> intelikey: a "good"  password?   yes.  ONce I can get into the gui I can change the access level of that user(me) correct?
[02:45] <fladd_> a suggestion for a readable font :-)
[02:46] <Steve^> bleh, emacs :P
[02:46] <Morpsemia> as any ISP worth it's salt don't have the time to activly monitor your traffic for that kind of stuff
[02:46] <paulthompson949> tritium: i know... i am confused too... i also have the ubuntu cd in the drive
[02:46] <blyzer> como me registro
[02:46] <intelikey> raindog the first user is added to group admin  which unless you edit sudoers has full root access to the system via sudo
[02:46] <NickGarvey> !es
[02:46] <tritium> paulthompson949: hmm, let's have a look at your /etc/apt/sources.list (please put on pastebin)
[02:46] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[02:46] <Xen> cool. thanks. im gonna go play with it now. adios and thank to the 5 or 6 people that have helped me
[02:46] <Xen> thanks*
[02:46] <NickGarvey> :)
[02:46] <OmegaAlpha> i was just wondering...does alot of people in here use more(cntrl-alt-f#)
[02:47] <paulthompson949> tritium: new to this stuff... i dont know what that is
[02:47] <intelikey> raindog first user account is the admin account.
[02:47] <Steve^> Why doesn't something like ifconfig show my external IP? Does it not know?
[02:47] <NickGarvey> !pastebin
[02:47] <fladd_> NickGarvey, what font do you use? do you have a screenshot, maybe? Or did you see my screenshot?
[02:47] <Morpsemia> it doesn't know it
[02:47] <r0x0r> because ur behind a router
[02:47] <silvaran> fladd_: where's your screenshot?
[02:47] <NickGarvey> steve^: what happens is your internet requests go to your router, it handles it from there
[02:48] <fladd_> silvaran, here: http://fladd.de/phpbb/album_pic.php?pic_id=64
[02:48] <NickGarvey> your computer does not need to know your external IP, it has no use for it
[02:48] <intelikey> steve^  idk.... it does mine.
[02:48] <Steve^> and I only know from xchat as it chooses to tell me specially?
[02:48] <spaaz> can someone help me mount my dvd burner? its not showing up in media or auto mounting.
[02:48] <raindog> intelikey:  I'll make sure to change that as soon can find my extra mouse so that I can manuever around the gui.  Once again, thanks for your patience and excellent help.
[02:48] <NickGarvey> (twitch) so much for an upgrade
[02:48] <r0x0r> nope
[02:48] <Morpsemia> Steve^, ifconfig is for your local network card and as far as it is concered, the only ip addr you have on that machine is the local one
[02:48] <balu1> DOes anyone know why this may have happened:  I got hard ware accel to work with my ati radeon 9000 using fglrx, HOWEVER it broke GLXGEARS (as in locked up my system) and if i start a game which uses graphics, it locks up the system.
[02:48] <intelikey> raindog you may want to read the wiki on that.
[02:48] <Steve^> what are the chances that my external ip will change? :P
[02:48] <intelikey> !root
[02:48] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[02:48] <intelikey> there ^
[02:49] <NickGarvey> Steve, mine has changed 3 times in 2 months
[02:49] <r0x0r> there are several ways to gather ur external ip www.deine-ip.de for instance
[02:49] <yaaar> anybody in here use mythtv and have problems after the last auto-update kernel upgrade? mine doesn't work anymore.....
[02:49] <Morpsemia> Steve^, the ip we see is the one on your router, and it really depents on your isp
[02:49] <raindog> intelikey:  I most certainly will.  [adding mouse now] 
[02:49] <spaaz> i have already looked at the ubuntu wikipedia and it didnt help.
[02:49] <Steve^> my isp is a university
[02:49] <NickGarvey> which is why a domain name is very nice
[02:49] <ReWT_AxS> I have a question....I installed Ubuntu on my hard drive almost 2 months ago and it's been running fine. Today I stuck in the new Back|Track live CD and played around with it. When done, I shut down the computer normally. Once grub loaded I notcied I had 2 new options to boot into. Why did the live cd change anything, especially my grub, and how do I go about fixing it?
[02:49] <intelikey> k good luck wiff it.
[02:49] <spaaz> can someone helpme mount this dvd drive so i can burn a dvd?
[02:49] <void^> afaik radeon 9000 3d accel works with oss drivers, no need for crappy fglrx
[02:49] <silvaran> fladd_: That's awfully painful... what flavor of emacs are you running?  The gtk-snapshot?.... iirc emacs doesn't support editor rendering of smoothed fonts :(
[02:49] <NickGarvey> spaaz: mount /dev/(noidea) /media/dvd1 or something
[02:50] <Morpsemia> Steve^, mine hasn't changed in a very long time, and my experince is that universitys don't change that often
[02:50] <NickGarvey> I don't know my linux box is 10 years old
[02:50] <spaaz> nick, its not showing up  at all
[02:50] <intelikey> spaaz  you are not trying to mount the blank disk are you ?
[02:50] <fladd_> silvaran, yeah, its the gtk snapshot...
[02:50] <spaaz> no
[02:50] <spaaz> im trying to mount a ps2 game
[02:50] <balu1> radeon 9000 3daccel does not work w/ oSS drivers.
[02:50] <Morpsemia> Steve^, also, since it sounds like your wanting to run a web server, you may want to look into dyndns or another dynamic domain service like it
[02:50] <Klick_> hey all, i just upgraded to dapper from breezy and seems like i lost  a lot of functionality, can anyone help me solve some of these issues, first being how do i get my mounted discs to appear on gnome background, id ont see it in the preferences at all
[02:50] <ReWT_AxS> Anyone have any ideas?
[02:50] <silvaran> fladd_: I'm interested to try it... haven't used emacs in a long time, I'll let you know how I make out...
[02:50] <fladd_> silvaran, any ideas how to get the fonts to look better?
[02:50] <NickGarvey> (slap) don't pirate
[02:50] <paulthompson949> tritium: i have the directory open... how can i show you the files?
[02:50] <spaaz> to burn it because i have modchip in ps2
[02:50] <spaaz> its legal
[02:50] <silvaran> fladd_: Find a book on emacs configuration :)
[02:50] <spaaz> i have original copy
[02:50] <balu1> i had to use fglrx to get rendering
[02:51] <balu1> right now using oss drivers i have no rendering.
[02:51] <fladd_> silvaran, well, i used several fonts, and they all look like crap!
[02:51] <Steve^> Morpsemia, actually no. I have a real one of those. I just need my ip for games and such
[02:51] <spaaz> nick how do i mount?
[02:51] <r0x0r> Klick_:  /join #ubuntu+1
[02:51] <void^> requires dri module in the kernel for accel
[02:51] <balu1> void^: how can i check for that.
[02:51] <Morpsemia> Steve^, good deal, I usually just jump on my routers status page for that
[02:51] <Klick_> r0x0r,  ok im there
[02:51] <silvaran> fladd_: Yeah, I wish there was a way to get emacs to use fontconfig... or whatever the font renderer/manager du jour is on linux... i usually don't worry about it; strange that emacs hasn't been today-ified.
[02:51] <fladd_> silvaran, so it's not emacs, and the configuration, it's the fonts in gnome or something... i don't know, that's why i ask :-)
[02:51] <funkyHat> -_- I don't understand why I can't emerge apmd
[02:51] <intelikey> ReWT_AxS you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst  to fix that.
[02:52] <spaaz> bye
[02:52] <silvaran> funkyHat: Umm... because you're not running Gentoo?
[02:52] <NickGarvey> spaaz: or not..
[02:52] <Steve^> How come the websites can't show a proper ip, like xchat can?
[02:52] <funkyHat> silvaran, guess again
[02:52] <NickGarvey> Steve^ what websites
[02:52] <funkyHat> ;)
[02:52] <earl_> i need to pull some patched sources from ubuntu. in particular ffmpeg. can I pull these using my standard debian; do I just need to change my sources.list? to what?
[02:52] <void^> balu1: zgrep -i drm /proc/config.gz
[02:52] <Steve^> google for whats my ip
[02:52] <NickGarvey> www.whatsmyipaddress.com
[02:52] <Morpsemia> Steve^, your isp may be running a proxie or a site cache
[02:52] <fladd_> silvaran, the thing is that there are people out there with readable fonts, look at this: http://www.lynucs.org/index.php?screen_type=1&screen_id=12572662033fe70f342c484&m=screen
[02:52] <NickGarvey> should say it right
[02:52] <silvaran> funkyHat: :) I'm down to 1 machine with gentoo on it... I did have 4 :)
[02:52] <r0x0r> http://www.deine-ip.de
[02:53] <r0x0r> should say it also
[02:53] <Steve^> oh it is actually
[02:53] <Steve^> hmm
[02:53] <balu1> void^ : sayys:gzip: /proc/config.gz: No such file or directory
[02:53] <silvaran> fladd_: yeah that's a tough one... it looks like the motif or athena/xaw3d widget set, the font is obviously different but it's hard to judge since the screenshot isn't pixel-per-pixel with the screen.
[02:54] <funkyHat> silvaran, I'm one one machine on gentoo as well... I got rid of it in favour of agnula (the machine is used for recording and mixing etc.) but agnula turned out to be pretty broken, and a lot slower than gentoo
[02:54] <sybariten> i'm using xampp which is an apache/sql/php/ftp distribution that resides in /opt/. Now i need to make an ftp user (or, a normal user i suppose) that can write to /opt/ ... any suggestions how ?
[02:54] <iGotNoTime> would anyone have a guess as to why my .mpg files all playback at 2x in all media players?
[02:54] <silvaran> fladd_: how are you changing the fonts?
[02:54] <fladd_> like that: emacs-snapshot -fn "-monotype-times new roman-medium-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-p-*-microsoft-cp1251"
[02:54] <funkyHat> silvaran, gah >_<, I just realised why you said 'because you're not running gentoo'
[02:54] <gui> br
[02:54] <NickGarvey> !br
[02:54] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[02:55] <silvaran> funkyHat: Damn scrolling text :)
[02:55] <void^> balu1: whoever made your kernel wanted to save 15kb and sacrificed config.gz for it.. look in /boot for a config gile
[02:55] <sybariten> iGotNoTime: if you fail here, try vcdhelp you'll heave help in one day
[02:55] <ReWT_AxS> What it did was took my setting i had save and changed them in my grub to a amd-64-generic Previous and took some messed up version and put it in as Default
[02:55] <fladd_> silvaran, like that: emacs-snapshot -fn "-monotype-times new roman-medium-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-p-*-microsoft-cp1251"
[02:55] <ReWT_AxS> It's weird.
[02:55] <balu1> void^ um.. i just installed right of the ubuntu cd?
[02:55] <void^> balu1: well, i don't use ubuntu
[02:55] <iGotNoTime> sybariten, thanks but it is not the encoding, they play fine in XP :(
[02:56] <balu1> void^: but ur in an ubuntu channel? :P
[02:56] <silvaran> fladd_: yeeargh... yeah that's pretty nasty.  I was hoping you knew of an "easy" (with emacs words like "easy" and "simple" go in quotes) way of changing the font... I'm sure it's buried in the configurator somewhere.
[02:56] <ReWT_AxS> Do I just delete what it made Default? and change the name from Previous to Default?
[02:56] <iGotNoTime> sybariten, do they know ubuntu there?
[02:56] <void^> balu1: yeah, i have to deal with scores of ubuntu users so i figured i'd observe them in their natural environment
[02:56] <sybariten> iGotNoTime: yeah, but there could still be people there who could solve it. They have a whole underforum dedicated to just linux video
[02:56] <sybariten> iGotNoTime: i dont think you'
[02:56] <brenner> iGotNoTime: how'd you set up totem?
[02:56] <intelikey> balu1 i answered questions in here for a month running mdk9  so why does that surprise you ?
[02:57] <sybariten> iGotNoTime: i dont think you'r problem is related to ubuntu specifically
[02:57] <Healot> just comment those lines... you may want to revert, ReWT_AxS
[02:57] <silvaran> fladd_: That's what I don't get.. the toolbar fonts/menus look so nice, the embedded editor looks like crap... like a velvet bag of feces... or something less disgusting.
[02:57] <fladd_> silvaran, well, you can put it in .emacs or .Xresources afterwards...
[02:57] <iGotNoTime> brenner, out of the box I did nothing
[02:57] <CanadianSnow> cool
[02:57] <CanadianSnow> bye
[02:57] <silvaran> fladd_: Options->Customize Emacs->Top-Level Customizations, navigate from there... though I doubt any of the fonts will look decent. no smoothing or anything
[02:57] <fladd_> silvaran, well, thats because the menu is antialiased, since it is gtk2...
[02:57] <iGotNoTime> brenner, I think it is more libmpeg2 related than anything else
[02:57] <balu1> intelikey: well im just saying, im a new user, i assumed he was using ubuntu, because if i ask a "how " question , a response of "i dont know i dont use ubuntu but im in the ubuntu helpchannel:" doesnt really help me :P
[02:58] <ReWT_AxS> comments are double #'s or just a single?
[02:58] <silvaran> fladd_: gvim looks great :)
[02:58] <iGotNoTime> sybariten, I will certainly post there, I am soo out of ideas
[02:58] <brenner> iGotNoTime: and you've tried vlc or mplayer?
[02:58] <intelikey> balu1 yeah i see the logic in that.   what is your question maybe i'll have a clue ?
[02:58] <iGotNoTime> brenner, yes that is what shocked me most is I had the same result in VLC of all clients
[02:58] <william> does anyone have a good list of proxies i can have?
[02:59] <fladd_> silvaran, i know how to set the fonts, but at my computer they look worse than on other computers...i thought it is because of gnome or something and one of you guys knows anything about it. yeah vim is nice, use it for short editing.
[02:59] <Healot> ReWT_AxS, you can even put 10 of those "#" in one line
[02:59] <ReWT_AxS> k well im about to reboot...brb
[02:59] <balu1> intelikey: well Void just told me that i dont need flgrx to obtain 3d hardware accel for my ati mobility radeon 9000 igp card...
[02:59] <iGotNoTime> brenner, I have tried 7 media players xine, gxine, vlc, xfmedia, xmms everything
[02:59] <ReWT_AxS> ill be right back
[02:59] <silvaran> fladd_: Do you have the 100dpi/75dpi fonts installed?  Maybe a few more type1 fonts or something?
[02:59] <balu1> intelikey: he kinda made me excited since ive been trying to get accelration for atleast 2 weeks now.
[02:59] <iGotNoTime> brenner, all play like chipmunks
[02:59] <earl_> can a standard debian (sarge) distro pull sources from ubuntu? where?
[02:59] <fladd_> silvaran, how?
[03:00] <void^> balu1: hm, mobility radeon may be different.. regular radeons are supported by the dri project up to 9200
[03:00] <brenner> iGotNoTime: so it's not just .mpg files?
[03:00] <intelikey> balu1 see the links ubotu messaged you on ati.
[03:00] <balu1> intelikey:  been there done that ;p scoured google.com/linux, and ubuntu for a while..
[03:00] <silvaran> fladd_: apt-get install xfonts-100dpi ...
[03:00] <iGotNoTime> brenner, I have not tried xvid avi's if that is what you mean?
[03:00] <Klick_> hey all, i upgraded to dapper, and now my wireless card doesnt work, whenever i modprobe ipw2200 it says failed to load firmware, and when i install firmware it says to place the files in my hotplug lib dir, but it seems i dont have hotplug installed, and i dont have the ability to install hotplug in synaptic, any ideas how to fix this
[03:00] <fladd_> silvaran, okay, wait...
[03:01] <fiendskull9> how do i install .deb files?
[03:01] <Suture> How do I set zsh as my default shell in Eterm? I tried chsh but it didn't seem to work..
[03:01] <_jason> !deb
[03:01] <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)
[03:01] <silvaran> fladd_: How are you probing the font name/families, ie that whatever-the-heck-*-*-*-48-*-kill-*-me-*-now ?
[03:01] <void^> balu1: basically, all radeons below R300 chipset are supported - lspci should tell the chipset
[03:01] <Morpsemia> anyone know if I can get my pocket pc to work with breezy?
[03:01] <balu1> void^:  one moment.. let me see
[03:01] <intelikey> balu1 well not because i don't use ubuntu, but because i don't have any exp with ati   i can't go beyond the wiki on that one balu1
[03:01] <fladd_> silvaran, yeah, i have both installed. try xfontsel or gtkfontsel
[03:01] <brenner> iGotNoTime: well, i just saw xmms.  xmms isn't a video player afaik
[03:01] <fiendskull9> thank you mucho
[03:02] <cafuego> balu1: fglrx doesn't support mobility radeons
[03:02] <cafuego> So even if you wanted to, you couldn't.
[03:02] <iGotNoTime> brenner, I tried everything under A/V menu :P
[03:02] <intelikey> there are some ati users in here if you can get their attention balu1
[03:02] <balu1> cafuego: i c.
[03:03] <intelikey> ah was typing in place of reading.... sorry cafuego
[03:03] <PuppiesOnAcid> What is a good PDF viewer?
[03:03] <iGotNoTime> brenner, I just tried 3 avi files 1 xvid and two divx, same effect
[03:03] <r0bin> Yo
[03:03] <silvaran> fladd_: Yeah xfontsel has an unbelievably limited number of fonts, I'll think we'll have to find out  what kinds of fonts it needs and stick them in xorg.conf :(
[03:03] <ReWT_> k
[03:03] <ReWT_> that worked
[03:03] <intelikey> PuppiesOnAcid xpdg ?
[03:03] <ReWT_> :)
[03:03] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, i use ATI
[03:03] <intelikey> g/f
[03:03] <ReWT_> Now I installed the edubuntu art....how do i get it off?
[03:03] <balu1> omegaalpha: model?

[03:04] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, Radeon U1 320m
[03:04] <iGotNoTime> could it be my ATI video card settings?
[03:04] <concept10> what package do I need to remove in order to get rid of all xfce packages on my system?
[03:04] <_jason> B_166-ER-X: make sure you have no terminals with the current directory in your cd-rom
[03:04] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, i had trouble with my ATI card with 3d acceleration when i first install ubuntu
[03:04] <cafuego> OmegaAlpha: yes, that's what i have.
[03:04] <NickGarvey> Klick_: try apt-get install quota to instal the program, the apt-get remove quota to get rid of it
[03:04] <fladd_> silvaran, try selecting the * instead of adobe
[03:04] <B_166-ER-X> Jason ...done

[03:05] <bburky> Is it possible to install the PPC version of Ubuntu to an external SCSI drive. Or rather an old PowerBook connected as a SCSI drive?
[03:05] <fladd_> silvaran, try courier

[03:05] <ReWT_> nevermind, got it
[03:05] <concept10> cafuego, what are you guys attempting to configure? I have the same ATI chipset
[03:05] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, I tried the fglrx driver but it just made thigns worst. so uninstalled it.. but tried forever to figure out howt o get Direct rendering enable and to get back my 3d accel
[03:05] <brenner> iGotNoTime: i've actually heard of the problem.  i'm just searching for the fix
[03:05] <fladd_> silvaran, looks crap on my screen :-)
[03:05] <silvaran> Ugh
[03:05] <ReWT_> w00t
[03:06] <ReWT_> All gone
[03:06] <Klick_> NickGarvey, thanks, any idea about why i dont have the ability to install hotplug in dapper?
[03:06] <NickGarvey> 2-4
[03:06] <urmom> hmm...in that case ubotu how can i configure my onboard audio device to actually work?
[03:06] <cafuego> concept10: I think balu1 says he's got no dri.
[03:06] <balu1> omegaalpha: yep sond just like me. so where do u end up at?
[03:06] <yaaar> anybody in here use mythtv and have problems after the last auto-update kernel upgrade? mine doesn't work anymore.....

[03:06] <fladd_> silvaran, can you send me a screenshot?
[03:06] <iGotNoTime> brenner, me too please do let me know if you get warmer than me :)
[03:06] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, i then reinstalled ubuntu for certain reason and now I have the 3d accel and it says my direct rendering is enabled :) So... maybe your installation didnt go well
[03:06] <bburky> Um...? Repeating: Is it possible to install the PPC version of Ubuntu to an external SCSI drive. Or rather an old PowerBook connected as a SCSI drive?
[03:06] <kameron> how do i output something from grep into kate, or gedit?
[03:06] <silvaran> fladd_: I will when I get it so it doesn't look like crap :)
[03:06] <B_166-ER-X> Managu,  in fact, its not 'for me' although i have sometimes the same problem
[03:06] <brenner> crimsun: ping

[03:07] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, there are many threads on wiki about the fglrx driver being their savior and many that say it doesnt work. but let me note the use of the word many.  there are different ways of going about trying to fix it.. most of them are very simliar
[03:07] <bburky> cafuego: it is PPC though
[03:07] <silvaran> fladd_: Can't find my screenshot button... you know how to get a shot of a single window?

[03:09] <balu1> k thanks all
[03:09] <OmegaAlpha> somehow i got lucky and when i reinstalled my vid card was now fine.. or i could have done something and didnt know it
[03:09] <urmom> ok getting my onboard audio to work
[03:09] <LethalSword> Can anybody help me install firefox 1.5?
[03:09] <_jason> ubotu: tell LethalSword about ff1.5
[03:09] <silvaran> fladd_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10263
[03:09] <urmom> its nvidia
[03:09] <brenner> iGotNoTime: have you intsalled gstreamer0.8-mad ?
[03:09] <Healot> !ff1.5
[03:09] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[03:10] <iGotNoTime> brenner, negative
[03:10] <tritium> !tell urmom about sound
[03:10] <mike4479> Hi guys what the command to install KDE desktop system please?
[03:10] <tritium> urmom: start with the URLs that ubotu gave you
[03:10] <fladd_> silvaran, how did you do that??? do you have a lcd display?
[03:10] <brenner> iGotNoTime: do so
[03:10] <_jason> mike4479: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[03:10] <urmom> i indeed idid
[03:10] <iGotNoTime> doing now :)
[03:10] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, i tried everything. onepossibility was searching for another ATI driver on google and installing it.. most likely it will be for windows so youll need wine installed and also ndiswrapper. one site i found of interest was Omega Drivers
[03:10] <silvaran> fladd_: Yeah but it's a screenshot :)... oh wait... the big focus should be on the embedded window which uses different drawing routines than the normal GTK widgets.
[03:10] <mike4479> _jason: thanks
[03:10] <Suture> How can I make a "shortcut" so that when I type irssi it does "Eterm -e irssi --config-file irssi" just like if I type aterm it opens aterm
[03:11] <balu1> omegaalpha: can u ndiswrapper ati drivers?
[03:11] <NickGarvey> 1-3-1
[03:11] <NickGarvey> wow
[03:11] <NickGarvey> wrong window
[03:11] <Managu> balu1: no.  wine won't help you any with video drivers either
[03:11] <Morpsemia> oh great, I've done it now
[03:11] <OmegaAlpha> if im not confusing my ati driver with my wifi driver then yes...
[03:11] <r0bin> balul ndiswrapper is for ndis only, e.g. network cards.
[03:11] <PuppiesOnAcid> Anyone know how I can crop part of a PDF out as a jpeg?
[03:11] <balu1> thats what i thot
[03:11] <balu1> k let me try these solutoins
[03:12] <balu1> and ill come back and let u know how they went
[03:12] <Morpsemia> I installed the nforce pack from nvidia's webiste and while my sound is working, my network is not...
[03:12] <cafuego> PuppiesOnAcid: gimp
[03:12] <fladd_> silvaran, oh and you set it to bold...which isn't a good idea, since then you cannot show really bold text with it i guess...
[03:12] <cafuego> PuppiesOnAcid: or 'convert'
[03:12] <Healot> ndissing a AGP card driver... well fine
[03:12] <urmom> tritium i really have been through all of this
[03:12] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, but i may be confusing it with the wrong driver.. it was a while ago that i had to do all that.. and i was working on it for weeks all day and night.. so it got crazy
[03:12] <silvaran> fladd_: Ohh... I found it, uh... less crappy as bold.
[03:12] <Morpsemia> ifconfig says that eth0 doesn't exist
[03:12] <tritium> urmom: please describe the problem, then
[03:12] <silvaran> I'll keep playing.
[03:12] <r0bin> Morpsemia, that doesn't mean it's not there though.
[03:12] <balu1> no probs, ill work on my own for a bit.
[03:12] <fladd_> silvaran, ???
[03:12] <iGotNoTime> brenner, no difference
[03:13] <Mastastealth> hey, can anyone vouch on ubuntu's resizing partition feature? wanna know if i can partition my NTFS one with it or install PartitionMagic or sumthin
[03:13] <Morpsemia> right right,  I was using it a moment ago, any ideas on how to get it back?
[03:13] <iGotNoTime> brenner, probably good I have it though :P
[03:13] <Morpsemia> yeah, ntfs resize works
[03:13] <silvaran> fladd_: I'll keep mucking around with the fonts until I find one that works at regular weight.
[03:13] <urmom> can't get my onboard realtek ac97 sound to be recognized
[03:13] <r0bin> Morpsemia does ifconfig -a show eth0?
[03:13] <fladd_> silvaran, okay
[03:13] <Morpsemia> no it doesn't
[03:13] <Healot> Mastastealth, gparted/parted on the live CD works fine, it is a clone of PM anyways
[03:13] <r0bin> ah
[03:13] <Morpsemia> I have lo and sit0
[03:13] <urmom> i've worked on it all day tririum
[03:14] <LethalSword> hmm i have no permission to write to the opt folder?
[03:14] <OmegaAlpha> balu1, did you go to the link i sent you?  here is another one... that you should check out http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122094&highlight=ndiswrapper
[03:14] <balu1> yep im readin the one u sent me
[03:14] <Healot> urmom, is it the new Surround Audio? AC880?
[03:14] <r0bin> Morpsemia: what is your network card? was it being automatically detected before?
[03:14] <_jason> LethalSword: it's probably owned by root
[03:14] <silvaran> fladd_: Faces->Basic Faces
[03:14] <LethalSword> man ill just use the windows installer
[03:14] <Morpsemia> yes it was, it's the onboard nforce2 chip
[03:14] <Mastastealth> healot: yea the thing is, i botted a kanotix cd, and used qparted, but its telling me its fragmented
[03:15] <Mastastealth> even tho i just defragged
[03:15] <_jason> LethalSword: for firefox1.5?
[03:15] <r0bin> And you installed a new bios pack now it's not working?
[03:15] <LethalSword> yea
[03:15] <LethalSword> i have crossover
[03:15] <_jason> LethalSword: how?
[03:15] <_jason> oh
[03:15] <fladd_> silvaran, yes i am in that buffer
[03:15] <brenner> iGotNoTime: ok, try totem-xine
[03:15] <iGotNoTime> brenner Just did
[03:15] <r0bin> I want crossover but I decided to not steal anymore
[03:15] <_jason> LethalSword: you basically just copy and paste the commands on that wiki page
[03:15] <brenner> iGotNoTime: w32codecs?
[03:15] <iGotNoTime> works in totem but not vlc
[03:15] <Healot> Mastastealth, usually fragment you NTFS drives before doing that (on Windows of course)
[03:15] <Morpsemia> I installed a driver pack from nivida's website (for the sound driver) and installed both sound and network drivers, the sound driver works fine, but my network card is now silent
[03:16] <iGotNoTime> brenner, that streamer thing worked for totem
[03:16] <OmegaAlpha> theres a new upgrade for breezy out isnt there?
[03:16] <vars> do w32 codecs work for mplayer?
[03:16] <NickGarvey> defragment*
[03:16] <urmom> brb with that tritium
[03:16] <NickGarvey> heh
[03:16] <Mastastealth> Healot: exactly, i DID just defragment
[03:16] <_jason> vars: yes
[03:16] <iGotNoTime> brenner, I only need one media player so this is fine!
[03:16] <iGotNoTime> brenner, thank you so very much I was on this since 2pm
[03:16] <r0bin> Morpsemia: Did you back up your old drivers?
[03:16] <brenner> iGotNoTime: heh.  you're welcome.  totem's my favourite anyway
[03:16] <iGotNoTime> brenner, lucky me :D:D
[03:16] <Healot> well, kano's parted is not the same as Ubuntu's parted, they might differ,,,
[03:16] <urmom> Realteck ALC655 6-Channel AC97
[03:16] <Morpsemia> I doubt it, I just ran the install sh script
[03:16] <brenner> iGotNoTime: weird though.  vlc is supposed to be amazing out of the box
[03:16] <OmegaAlpha> someone tell me about the apt-get upgrade command.. i heard do and dont dos about it
[03:16] <Suture> How do I keep my dns settings from changing every time I restart?
[03:17] <silvaran> fladd_: try foundry monotype
[03:17] <iGotNoTime> brenner, if you EVER need any help crashing your box let me know, I am highly skilled in that area
[03:17] <brenner> iGotNoTime: it's 1pm here ... so your time reference doesn't really work for me :)
[03:17] <r0bin> Morpsemia: what is your motherboard?
[03:17] <iGotNoTime> brenner, 7 hours on it

[03:18] <kbrooks> *pokes ops*
[03:18] <r0bin> Morpsemia: why not try apt-cache searching for nforce2
[03:18] <vars> where are the w32codecs?
[03:18] <_jason> !w32codecs
[03:18] <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
[03:18] <Healot> KT-800 based mobo...
[03:18] <silvaran> It's not on the fndry list in xfontsel?  Is everything else '*' when you try to select it?
[03:18] <urmom> hmm...
[03:19] <kbrooks> brenner, that sucks
[03:19] <r0bin> brenner, I decided to ditch windows completely =)

[03:20] <ReWT_AxS> Is there any way in synaptic to see everything i have installed through it?***
[03:20] <r0bin> priest_, try running your program: DISPLAY=:0 appname
[03:20] <fladd_> silvaran, what does it look like?
[03:20] <_jason> LethalSword: it shouldn't be saying that if you follow the wiki page
[03:20] <Healot> try to "dpkg-reconfigure linux-sound-base"
[03:20] <tristanmike> priest_, with what program ?
[03:20] <brenner> r0bin: i only use windows for games...i guess it's still a cop-out though
[03:20] <priest_> tsclient tristanmike
[03:20] <priest_> but just about any program does it
[03:20] <ReWT_AxS> Healot, what will that dpkg do?
[03:20] <tritium> Malachi: check out scribus
[03:20] <silvaran> Not great... marginally better.. too much vertical space though.
[03:20] <Healot> mine was detected just fine during install... urmom
[03:20] <tristanmike> priest_, when running from cmd line?
[03:21] <priest_> ettercap does it as well tristanmike
[03:21] <silvaran> fladd_: I think it might be best to get some other fonts from the repos and try those.
[03:21] <priest_> yes sir
[03:21] <br0x> test
[03:21] <Malachi> tritium: Thought you'd say that. I like Scribus, a lot, but I can't install the newest version....
[03:21] <Healot> ReWT_AxS, it is the father of Debian-based installer...
[03:21] <tristanmike> priest_, i don't think you need to worry, what's the cmd, tsclient?
[03:21] <Malachi> The one with OO.org Writer support....
[03:21] <B_166-ER-X> i need help to eject a cd that says have 'process in use'
[03:21] <fladd_> silvaran, how? don't know their package name
[03:21] <r0bin> brenner, my amd64 mobo packed itself in so I can't play HL2 at 64bit goodness anymore anyway so why bother
[03:21] <priest_> yes
[03:21] <OmegaAlpha> who knows about .run extensions in here? i just downloaded 'America's Army - Special Forces for Linux. and its a .run extension?
[03:21] <tristanmike> priest_, is it not starting ?
[03:21] <ReWT_AxS> Healot, and it's purpose?
[03:21] <tritium> Malachi: which version would that be?
[03:21] <ReWT_AxS> restore sound?
[03:22] <brenner> OmegaAlpha: they're just shell script iirc
[03:22] <silvaran> fladd_: me neither... i don't even know what types it supports, and whether or not it's necessary to restart X (which it probably is)
[03:22] <TheIconoclast> Hey, does Ubuntu run the latest games? (HL2, CS, FEAR, etc.)
[03:22] <Healot> install package? ReWT_AxS, are you familiar with other GNU/Linux versions? maybe?
[03:22] <priest_> oh shoot
[03:22] <NickGarvey> B_166-ER-X: kill the process then
[03:22] <brenner> *scripts
[03:22] <priest_> i figured it out tristanmike
[03:22] <RRubin> think drake's 2.6.15 kernel will install/run on breezy ok?
[03:22] <Malachi> tritium: 1.4
[03:22] <urmom> "dpkg-reconfigure linux-sound-base healot command not found
[03:22] <priest_> i was running it as root
[03:22] <OmegaAlpha> brenner,  how do i install it?
[03:22] <NickGarvey> !wine
[03:22] <Malachi> tritium: Er, 1.3
[03:22] <priest_> there for gave me the error
[03:22] <r0bin> TheIconoclast, does _ANY_ linux play _ANY_ of those games? :D
[03:22] <NickGarvey> !info wine
[03:22] <jmoncayo> how can i control my internet connection like thw wide band
[03:22] <fladd_> silvaran, no, no restart of X, just "xset fp rehash"
[03:22] <ubotu> wine: (Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library)), section universe/otherosfs, is optional. Version: 0.0.20050725-0ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 14131 kB, Installed size: 55484 kB
[03:22] <OmegaAlpha> brenner, i downloaded it off fileshack.com
[03:22] <tristanmike> priest_, that's actully the next question I was going to ask :P
[03:22] <priest_> good to know. i did not know that ubuntu did that
[03:22] <javiolo> !cedega
[03:23] <priest_> hahaha tristanmike your a smart man
[03:23] <silvaran> fladd_: even after editing xorg.conf (might be necessary?)
[03:23] <ReWT_AxS> err....Yea, Gentoo, Mandrake, KNpix
[03:23] <priest_> thank you sir
[03:23] <TheIconoclast> Err, so that's a no? I don't know, honestly.
[03:23] <tritium> Malachi: hmm, 1.2.4.1 currently in dapper
[03:23] <brenner> OmegaAlpha: cd into the directory and type: ./blah.run
[03:23] <TheIconoclast> =P
[03:23] <sethk> priest_, you're, not your
[03:23] <Healot> urmom, you don't have "dpkg-reconfigure"?
[03:23] <javiolo> !info cedega
[03:23] <brenner> OmegaAlpha: you should read any available docs though
[03:23] <fladd_> silvaran, what to edit there?
[03:23] <tristanmike> sethk, lol, semantics
[03:23] <B_166-ER-X> NickGarvey then how to know which process to kill ?
[03:23] <urmom> i may not
[03:23] <jmoncayo> how can i control my internet connection?
[03:23] <priest_> sethk, sorry will make note of that in the future
[03:23] <silvaran> fladd_: Possible paths, I don't know... I'll know when I find the packages in the repos.
[03:23] <Managu> B_166-ER-X, as I said earler, "man fuser"
[03:23] <silvaran> fladd_: googling now for other people with the same problem... works 9 times out of 10 for me :)
[03:23] <B_166-ER-X> i dont get 'fuser' at all.
[03:23] <Malachi> tritium: Don't have Dapper.
[03:23] <urmom> ok i'll be back i'm getting angry
[03:24] <B_166-ER-X> and i know there was ssomething simplier
[03:24] <tritium> Malachi: that's fine.  Just letting you know
[03:24] <Malachi> tritium: Waiting til final version....
[03:24] <Malachi> Should be good!
[03:24] <tritium> good plan
[03:24] <OmegaAlpha> yeah i tried that.. nothing happened.. and when i double click it in file browser in gnome... it lags the heck out of my computer and Gedit pops up
[03:24] <fladd_> silvaran, well, i google since 4 hours now...
[03:24] <r0bin> Love the iPod support in Rythymbox
[03:24] <void^> OmegaAlpha: make it executable, chmod +x
[03:25] <silvaran> fladd_: "misc-fixed" with a height of 120 for 1/10 pt looks all right...
[03:25] <Healot> ReWT_AxS, welcome to ubuntu/debian world now...
[03:25] <silvaran> fladd_: boring, but all right nonetheless.
[03:25] <ReWT_AxS> Thanks.
[03:25] <silvaran> fladd_: somebody else suggests running emacs in terminal mode permanently :)... then let xterm take care of the fonts! hah...
[03:25] <OmegaAlpha> void^, k then what? i tried typing its file name again in the terminal and it says command not found
[03:26] <fladd_> silvaran, but in terminal the features are limited
[03:26] <silvaran> fladd_: Right... http://kochhar.wordpress.com/2006/02/08/acceptable-fonts-in-emacs/
[03:26] <ReWT_AxS> Healot, so Ubuntu, does it come with linux-sound-base
[03:26] <silvaran> fladd_: and TTF fonts look like crap without xrender.
[03:26] <r0bin> Is there a plugin for Rythym box which plays M4A files? (AAC)?
[03:26] <silvaran> fladd_: Ooh! http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=126023
[03:27] <void^> OmegaAlpha: `file whatever.run` tells you what it is; `chmod +x whatever.run` makes it executable; `./whatever.run` starts it
[03:27] <ReWT_AxS> So if my soudn were to just stop workign one day, I could use that dpkg command and restore it?
[03:27] <punkrockguy318> Is there any way I can play DVDs in Dapper?
[03:27] <Kyral> !dvd
[03:27] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[03:27] <silvaran> fladd_: but no apt-get goody goodness.
[03:27] <punkrockguy318> Kyral: it's not in mutli?
[03:27] <fladd_> silvaran, i try the fixed one now...wait
[03:27] <Healot> ReWT_AxS, do you know the differences between "packages" and "installer"?
[03:27] <tristanmike> punkrockguy318, no, legal issues
[03:27] <Kyral> punkrockguy318, in the US its illegal
[03:28] <r0bin> <3 for living in the UK :D
[03:28] <punkrockguy318> Kyral: i thought mutliverse was like the non-us?
[03:28] <bryan> so, does most software marked 'linux' not run on ubuntu?
[03:28] <fiveiron> so whats a good linux app for watching tv through an ati tuner card?
[03:28] <Healot> I am not in the US :yaya :)
[03:28] <r0bin> Even if it's 2.30 am :)
[03:28] <OmegaAlpha> void^, ahh thanks! i didnt know about the ./ before the file name would run or install the file
[03:28] <Suture> How do I keep my dns settings from changing every time I restart?
[03:28] <Kyral> bryan, anything hat runs on one Distro SHOULD run on ohers
[03:28] <brenner> bryan: what makes you say that?
[03:28] <jean> hi
[03:28] <ReWT_AxS> yes
[03:28] <bryan> i've been trying to run quite a few programs
[03:28] <bryan> and none of them work
[03:29] <LethalSword> i cant install anything because im not the computer owner wtf
[03:29] <bryan> do they need to be outside of my home folder to work or somethign?
[03:29] <OmegaAlpha> void^, i thought the ./ before a file name just meant it was hidden?
[03:29] <bryan> i have this kaillera server that i'm trying to open, and it completely ignores me attempting to open it
[03:29] <bryan> i've tried in terminal, and it says 'no command found'
[03:29] <engla> The forums are down, it ate my latest post.. We should do what they do at wikipedia.. put a big "click here to donate" on error & maintenance pages
[03:30] <phar0e> by default ubuntu can't detect SATA drives?
[03:30] <bryan> any other tricks to opening executables that i haven't learned yet?
[03:30] <tritium> phar0e: it can
[03:30] <void^> OmegaAlpha: "." is the current directory. it's usually not in the search path due to security issues, so if you want to run something in the current directory you need to do it explicitely
[03:30] <bryan> i've had no real luck outside of synaptic
[03:30] <boardboy> OmegaAlpha: ".filename" means its hidden
[03:30] <shadou> Hi, does anyone know how to disable the 'gnome panel launcher zoom' animation?
[03:30] <phar0e> tritium: do I need to tell the installer to boot off a certain kernel that supports it I'm assuming?
[03:30] <llODxCOll> anyone know if ubuntu has a driver for the intel 220 wireless card?
[03:30] <urmom> healot how do i use dpkg reconfigure and what is it used for?
[03:30] <void^> OmegaAlpha: (think someone places a trojan in /tmp and calls it "ls", now you go there and do "ls".. that would be bad)
[03:30] <llODxCOll> 220*
[03:31] <llODxCOll> 2200*
[03:31] <Healot> phar0e, it should and shall other gnu/linux with 2.6 and later kernel
[03:31] <tritium> no, phar0e.  Shouldn't have to do anything special
[03:31] <llODxCOll> the 220 wireless card
[03:31] <llODxCOll> 2200 wireless card
[03:31] <oceansoul> Should
[03:31] <llODxCOll> so i dont have to do anything?
[03:31] <Healot> urmom, try "man dpkg-reconfigure", you'll get the closest idea what it does...
[03:31] <oceansoul> It's the best one for wireless cards
[03:31] <llODxCOll> ok
[03:31] <llODxCOll> thanks
[03:31] <OmegaAlpha> void^, lol i read an example like that before on the net about using the ls command to initiate a trojan
[03:31] <fladd_> silvaran, well thats a really strange font, isn't it? :-) but i tried a different thing: emacs-snapshot -fn "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*" &
[03:31] <tritium> !tell llODxCOll about enter
[03:31] <bryan> any ideas here? trying to open an executable with no avail
[03:31] <Healot> in GNU/Linux, no woman will helps us, only "man" does... hehe
[03:31] <slew> whats the command to reset the DHCP server for ubuntu?
[03:31] <fladd_> silvaran, very small though
[03:32] <djuggler> Anyone have any experience trying to get a live cd to boot on a Purple iMac?  BootX looks like the easier way to go but docs seem to imply I need yaboot but the yaboot docs have me scratching my head.
[03:32] <jean> i need to recompile things
[03:32] <Healot> bryan, wrong path, the exec isn't anywhere in the $PATH... or it is not set to +x?
[03:32] <Healot> or just simply mistyped name?
[03:32] <bryan> pretty sure it's nothign like that
[03:32] <OmegaAlpha> void^, so the . means current directory.... and the / does what? just tells . that whatever is after / is the file to execute?
[03:33] <boardboy> bryan: is the executable executable ls the file should have a rwxr_xr_x or somethinglike that
[03:33] <jean> !tell recompile
[03:33] <silvaran> fladd_: A little loose though, no other way to describe it... I think I'm off to try the xft branch from cvs... hope this makes it into dapper's repos sometime :)
[03:33] <urmom> healot when i use ppkg reconfig it works but not with reconfigure
[03:33] <LethalSword> how the hell ddo i get rid of this root user
[03:33] <jean> !tell kernel
[03:33] <void^> OmegaAlpha: separates . from the filename, lol
[03:33] <oceansoul> Lethal?
[03:33] <bryan> the executable just says "kaillerasrv"
[03:33] <NickGarvey> !patience
[03:33] <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.
[03:33] <bryan> in both terminal and file browser
[03:33] <jean> !tell jean about kernel
[03:33] <Healot> urmom, what distro do you have?
[03:33] <void^> LethalSword: you can't get rid of god!
[03:33] <urmom> breezy
[03:33] <bryan> uhh...ubuntu breezy?
[03:33] <oceansoul> void^ We must absolve him.
[03:33] <Healot> sure it's breezy?
[03:34] <OmegaAlpha> void^, im just so used to going to the directory and typing its name and it runs... or tar with tar files and dpkg for debians.. never learned of this
[03:34] <bryan> i'll check
[03:34] <OmegaAlpha> and i been using linux for a month
[03:34] <LethalSword> how do i make a password then
[03:34] <fiveiron> dangit... ntfs support is read only??
[03:34] <bryan> oy
[03:34] <urmom> version 5.10 for 64bit pc
[03:34] <void^> OmegaAlpha: tar and dpkg are in $PATH
[03:34] <punkrockguy318> So once I have the libdvdcss2 package, can totem play dvds?  It's not working yet.  Is there a gstreamer dvd plugin?
[03:34] <bryan> maybe it's not breezy or something...how od i check?
[03:34] <Healot> supposed to, fiveiron
[03:35] <fladd_> silvaran, the xft btranch has two bugs, look at: http://fladd.de/phpbb/album_cat.php?cat_id=8 i tried it already.
[03:35] <fiveiron> bah!
[03:35] <jean> how do i recompile this kernel for this sempron 64bit
[03:35] <Healot> Yes, punkrockguy318 :)
[03:35] <Healot> jean, goto kernel.org
[03:35] <punkrockguy318> Healot: where might I find this? I can't seem to find one for dapper.. only gstreamer0.8-dvd
[03:35] <jean> anyone using a sempron 64bit with the breezy i386 having hell
[03:35] <jean> ?
[03:36] <bryan> if i weren't using breezy, would that be a problem?
[03:36] <Healot> !tell punkrockguy318 about repos
[03:36] <urmom> healot...yes it is indeed breezy
[03:36] <OmegaAlpha> void^, yeah i dont know what $path means yet.. my guess would be command prompt path lol btw whats the usual directory games are installed in? /usr/bin ? im installing this army game
[03:36] <jean> anyone using a sempron 64bit?
[03:36] <punkrockguy318> Healot: yes, I have mutli and uni installed, but I don't see a dvd plugin for gstreamer0.10
[03:36] <Healot> urmom, what command exactly did you use?
[03:36] <m1ke_l> airsnort shows up on the packages.ubuntu page but apt-get wont install it?  why not?
[03:36] <ReWT_AxS> jean, why not use the 64 bit ?
[03:36] <void^> OmegaAlpha: `echo $PATH` to view it
[03:36] <ReWT_AxS> I am using turion 64 bit
[03:36] <ReWT_AxS> I'm not having trouble?
[03:37] <Mosi> OmegaAlpha: Yes, $PATH is the paths your shell looks in for commands you give it, in the order listed
[03:37] <urmom> "dpkg-reconfig"
[03:37] <Healot> punkrockguy318, anyways, this isn't the channel... for dapper users, totally :)
[03:37] <jean> ReWT_AxS: 64bit what?
[03:37] <urmom> then it made an arrow in terminal
[03:37] <brenner> bryan: people will either create distro-specific packages e.g. rpms for mandrake, or provide the source (usually archived in a tar file).  where exactly did you get the app from?
[03:37] <OmegaAlpha> paths... as in directories persay?
[03:37] <slew> whats the command to reset the DHCP server for ubuntu?
[03:38] <Mosi> I just switched to Kubuntu yesterday, and installed some update packages. Today i boot up and it has a graphic splash screen for loading. Does anyone know how to disable this?
[03:38] <urmom> ohh ohh i do
[03:38] <urmom> brb with anseer
[03:39] <ReWT_AxS> jean there is a 64 bit ubuntu version
[03:39] <pycs> we'll be right back? :)
[03:39] <Healot> I think jean  is trying to run 64bit kernel with 32 bit distro... well can be done, but a bit complicated...
[03:39] <iGotNoTime> If I am running Edubuntu can I replace it with Ubuntu via apt get?
[03:39] <jean> ReWT_AxS: am i supposed to use that with a sempron 64bit?
[03:39] <fiveiron> hmmm
[03:40] <fiveiron> is there any way to convert the fs on a drive from ntfs to ext3/ufs/etc without destroying the data?
[03:40] <jean> Healot: 64bit kernel?
[03:40] <ReWT_AxS> jean, yes
[03:40] <brenner> Mosi: if you're talking about usplash, just remove "splash" from the kernel line in grub's menu.lst
[03:40] <Healot> jean, Sempron 64bit supports 64-bit GNU/Linux kernels and distros...
[03:40] <iGotNoTime> fiveiron, I don't think so
[03:40] <PuMpErNiCkLe> fiveiron: Not the way you're thinking.
[03:40] <Healot> YES 64bit wtf...
[03:40] <ReWT_AxS> Should see an amd-64 ubuntu iso
[03:40] <Mosi> brenner: i guess i am... thanks :)
[03:40] <PuMpErNiCkLe> fiveiron: backup/format/restore is pretty much it
[03:41] <jean> Healot: what about windows 64bit?
[03:41] <fiveiron> bleh
[03:41] <fiveiron> time to back up 41gb of data... :(
[03:41] <Healot> YES, that too can do obn 64 sempron
[03:41] <Mosi> healot: why would you want to run a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit chip?
[03:41] <jean> Healot: people on hear have been saying otherwise
[03:41] <Healot> Mosi, not me, wtf?
[03:42] <ReWT_AxS> You cannot run a 64 bit iso on a 32bit. I tried using my 64 bit live on my other botebook...didnt work lol
[03:42] <Healot> no... I have both Athlon XP 64 and Sempron... works fine on both,,,
[03:42] <Healot> "I think jean  is trying to run 64bit kernel with 32 bit distro... well can be done, but a bit complicated.." -- Please quote other correctly
[03:42] <jean> ReWT_AxS: are you saying sempron 64 is 32bit?
[03:43] <raindog> When I click on system/administration/users and Groups it says 'starting users and groups' and then it just disappears.  Can anyone help me?
[03:43] <urmom> mosi figure it out yet or want some help?
[03:43] <j__> Hey.  I'm trying to get Xgl working by following this guide http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?id=916 but I'm having some problems.  When I add http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main universe restricted multiverse to my /etc/apt/sources.list, it give me the following error E: Type 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/' is not known on line 37 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:43] <ReWT_AxS> No Sempron 64 is 64 bit.
[03:43] <vars> hey i installed ubuntu server, how can i get audio working?
[03:43] <vars> i installed alsa base but no dice
[03:43] <jean> Healot: im thinking i dont have to run 64bit kernel on a 32bit distro, just recompile it
[03:43] <shadou> Sound on a server, vars?
[03:43] <brenner> urmom: i told him, but what's your answer? :)
[03:43] <ReWT_AxS> Get the ubuntu-breezy-5.10-amd-64  iso
[03:43] <ReWT_AxS> Burn it and pop it into your computer it will run fine.
[03:44] <jean> ReWT_AxS: ok thanks i will
[03:44] <Shotgun> hey, i am lacking manual pages on c and c++ commands, is there an apt-get package with all the nessesary man pages?
[03:44] <vars> shadou, i run fluxbox, i dont' need gnome
[03:44] <ReWT_AxS> Yep.
[03:44] <urmom> applications accessory terminal
[03:44] <Mosi> urmom: i got distracted, one sec.
[03:44] <vars> comprende?
[03:44] <brenner> Shotgun: manpages-dev
[03:44] <Shotgun> nice, thx
[03:44] <urmom> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:44] <shadou> vars, why do you run fluxbox on a server?
[03:44] <Healot> jean, get the kernel source packages and start recompile... cd /usr/src/linux; configure the kernel options, make, make install and poof... update the grub menu...
[03:44] <Healot> reboot
[03:44] <void^> raindog: just a hunch, does sudo work for you, in general?
[03:45] <vars> shadou, if you just install the server then you can add whatever programs you want as the need arises
[03:45] <Mosi> urmom: i assume by gedit you mean vi :P anyways, what's next?
[03:45] <flodine> anyone here use raggle
[03:45] <raindog> void^: in terminal, nope.  only when I use safe mode.
[03:46] <jonshea> Does anyone know what the plan is for xgl? Is that eventually going to become Ubuntu standard?
[03:46] <urmom> mosi find line driver in "nvidia"
[03:46] <Healot> it has been jonshea
[03:46] <Madpilot> raindog, did you do a standard install, and are you logged in as the 1st user (the one you created during install?)
[03:46] <salah> Hi , How can I setup ndiswraper
[03:46] <urmom> indevices
[03:46] <Mosi> urmom: pattern 'nvidia' not found. you sure?
[03:46] <urmom> yeah
[03:46] <Madpilot> !tell salah about ndiswrapper
[03:46] <Draconicus> My spca5xx driver is having problems. If I run camorama, the system locks up! I can't switch to console or anything! What can I do? How can I reinstall this driver?
[03:46] <void^> raindog: that would be your problem then.. your new user is probably not authorized to use sudo
[03:47] <s|k> :/
[03:47] <distant> can someone help me
[03:47] <urmom> after this nvidia line type in the options "No Logo" save and exit
[03:47] <stevenj>  question - should Install flashplayer-mozilla or flashplugin-nonfree (I use lastest dapper firefox) thanks!
[03:47] <brenner> Mosi: urmom is thinking about the nvidia splash screen they get
[03:47] <distant> I need to get my dual monitors working in ubuntu
[03:47] <stevenj> ignore I use laster dapper
[03:47] <raindog> madpilot: i'm logged in as the first user, i believe.  can
[03:47] <jonshea> Healot: Has been, next release has been? I just watched the video today, and that was off-the-hook.
[03:47] <stevenj> but I am confused about the flash player
[03:47] <urmom> thats what he asked for isn't it brenner?
[03:47] <brenner> Mosi: that ain't usplash (the graphical scrolling text you get before login)
[03:47] <Mosi> brenner: i was wondering. I'm running on PPC which means i have yaboot isntead of grub. is it still in the boot loader?
[03:47] <brenner> urmom: not how i understood it
[03:48] <Madpilot> raindog, and you did a standard isntall?
[03:48] <urmom> ahh ohh well
[03:48] <Madpilot> *install, rather
[03:48] <distant> can anyone help me get my dual monitors working on my nVidia 6800
[03:48] <Mosi> urmom: no, i was asking how to turn off the graphical splash on boot-up
[03:48] <Healot> xgl is available on breezy... the quality? don;t comment on that... they are trying hard...
[03:48] <Mosi> urmom: but thanks for the help anyways ^_^
[03:48] <urmom> thanks alot guys today
[03:48] <raindog> madpilot: yes
[03:48] <distant> I already have the driver installed, but only 1 monitor works
[03:48] <urmom> no that is on boot up
[03:48] <urmom> i'll be back tom
[03:49] <flodine> anyone use raggle
[03:49] <Madpilot> raindog, odd - what happens when you open a terminal & type "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:49] <Mosi> urmom: well the words 'driver', 'nvidia', and 'devices' do not occur anywhere in my xorg.conf :)
[03:49] <Mosi> eh, he left
[03:49] <s|k> !flash
[03:49] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[03:49] <raindog> madpilot:  just rebooted to safe mode....I can reboot and check.
[03:49] <Mosi> brenner: so is it still in the boot loader in yaboot?
[03:49] <j__> can anyone help me?  When I add http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main universe restricted multiverse to my /etc/apt/sources.list file, it give me the error: E: Type 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/' is not known on line 37 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:49] <distant> can anyone help me get my dual monitors working on my nVidia 6800
[03:49] <jonshea> I get it. I've read the wiki page. xgl is still at a "you can make it work and play with it, kinda" stage. What they used to call "beta" before beta started to mean "use it, but dont blame us for bugs".
[03:49] <brenner> Mosi: just to confirm, you mean the scrolling graphical text before login right?
[03:49] <Madpilot> raindog, yeah, safemode = full root access, so it doesn't count
[03:49] <Mosi> brenner: yeah
[03:50] <brenner> Mosi: i'm not familiar with ppc setup. i only know how grub does it.  but i would think you could remove usplash safely as an alternative method to simply disabling it via grub
[03:50] <Healot> dapper, join #ubuntu+1... it's really in testing right now...
[03:50] <flodine> anyone connect to aim with bitlbee
[03:50] <brenner> Mosi: but i'd ask in #kubuntu
[03:50] <Draconicus> If I try to access my webcam, everything locks up. What's wrong?
[03:50] <Madpilot> jonshea, "alpha" stage
[03:50] <^Odd^> !sound
[03:50] <ubotu> sound is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[03:50] <Mosi> brenner: i like having my X be non-critical. Just in case something goes wrong, i still want full access to my system :)
[03:50] <raindog> madpilot: rebooting.
[03:50] <Mosi> brenner: i'll do that, thanks
[03:50] <momojones> how do i set permissions on child objects :O
[03:50] <ReWT_> how do i kill my old session?
[03:51] <Draconicus> My camera didn't lock things up before. What happened?
[03:51] <ReWT_> kill -9 -1
[03:51] <Healot> any error of dapper release right now... is really unsupported... honestly I haven't try dapper yet... jusr looking at the buglist and wishlist
[03:51] <Healot> use dapper at OWN risks
[03:51] <Draconicus> Well, I just completely removed and reinstalled camorama. Maybe that will fix my problem. You people certainly aren't any help, today.
[03:51] <NickGarvey> !patiene
[03:51] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[03:51] <NickGarvey> !patience
[03:51] <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.
[03:51] <br0x> lol
[03:52] <Draconicus> NickGarvey: I'm pressed for time. Sorry. I have half an hour to make a recording or I'll lose something very valuable.
[03:52] <LethalSword> how do i login as the user root?
[03:52] <thewayofzen> How long have the forums been down?
[03:52] <PuMpErNiCkLe> ubotu: tell LethalSword about sudo
[03:52] <Healot> "su", LethalSword
[03:53] <shadou> Can anyone tell me how to disable the 'gnome panel launcher zoom animation'
[03:53] <LethalSword> i set the password
[03:53] <PuMpErNiCkLe> LethalSword: check the message ubotu sent you
[03:53] <Madpilot> LethalSword, you don't. Use sudo & your user pw for root powers
[03:53] <_jason> thewayofzen: less than 2 hours since that's when i last checked
[03:53] <NickGarvey> Draconicus: sorry to say but I know nothing about cameras, I don't use a GUI
[03:53] <Healot> if you really need total root access, "sudo passwd root" during first logon
[03:53] <Healot> and change the root password
[03:53] <thewayofzen> _jason,  thanks for the answer.  much appreciated.
[03:53] <LethalSword> i changed the root password
[03:53] <Madpilot> Healot, not recommended or needed
[03:53] <flodine> ive beenvery kind and waiting for some help
[03:53] <LethalSword> but i cant login
[03:53] <Healot> yeah
[03:53] <Healot> he was asking...
[03:53] <stevenj> flashplugin or flashplayer-mozilla?
[03:54] <Healot> don't be pissed though...
[03:54] <raindog> madpilot: when I enter the command you mentioned in terminal, it prompts me for my password, then does nothing.
[03:54] <Madpilot> LethalSword, I think you have to change some settings to allow root to have a graphical login
[03:54] <PuMpErNiCkLe> LethalSword: You can't login to root from gdm, IIRC.
[03:54] <brenner> shadou: i don't get a zoom animation :-/
[03:54] <momojones> does anyone know how i can set permissions on child objects in gnome :(
[03:54] <ReWT_AxS_> how do you kill a previous session of xchat?
[03:54] <brenner> it just sort of lights up
[03:54] <ReWT_AxS_> my accnt is still logged in
[03:54] <shadou> brenner, there's a kind of box which expands to the full screen, when you click something on the panel
[03:54] <Madpilot> raindog, is this a new install? Did sudo used to work?
[03:54] <shadou> i wanna disable it, it's making my eye candy not so candyish
[03:54] <Healot> ... /msg nickserv ghost "nick" "password"
[03:54] <brenner> shadou: ah, that thing
[03:55] <Healot> it will kill your "ghost"
[03:55] <raindog> madpilot:  this is a new install ( just from tonight)  sudo hasn't worked at all for me in gdm
[03:55] <shadou> mm, any idea how to turn it off brenner ?
[03:55] <Drac|Crate> What program can I use to record movies?
[03:55] <kapatid> anyone here used ISPConfig?
[03:55] <momojones> ;[
[03:55] <brenner> shadou: there might be a gconf setting
[03:55] <Madpilot> raindog, you can fix sudo, but to be honest the easiest 'fix' might be to reinstall :P
[03:55] <nvision> does ubuntu support hibernate/suspend on the intel 915g chipset w/o recompiling anything?
[03:56] <r0bin> nvision, no but osx86 probably does
[03:56] <r0bin> :P
[03:56] <kapatid> is there any video cd or dvd burning tools for ubuntu?
[03:56] <raindog> madpilot:  really?  just let the install run over again???  Nothing simpler?
[03:56] <ubushine> kapatid, gnomebaker
[03:57] <nvision> yea thats why i got the board in the 1st place and went with intel, but i want to run linux on it
[03:57] <digital00> can i use kde and gnome together in ubuntu?
[03:57] <nvision> and have suspend
[03:57] <_jason> digital00: yes
[03:57] <Madpilot> raindog, there are ways of fixing sudo from the failsafe login, but I've never had to use them
[03:57] <digital00> sudo apt-get install kde ?
[03:57] <shadou> brenner, i've checked through gconf, can't really find anything
[03:57] <ubushine> hey folks -- anyone here using enlightenment?
[03:57] <_jason> digital00: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[03:57] <Madpilot> raindog, ask again in a bit about fixing sudo, someone should be able to help you more than I can with that
[03:57] <kapatid> ubushine, i guess gnomebaker cant support video cd burning?
[03:57] <digital00> ok thx
[03:57] <_jason> raindog: what problem are you having with sudo?
[03:58] <raindog> madpilot:  Thank you very much for your help.
[03:58] <ubushine> kapatid, what do you mean video cd burning?
[03:58] <Madpilot> raindog, np - sorry I couldn't help further
[03:58] <jean> Help
[03:58] <jean> Preconfiguring packages ...
[03:58] <jean> dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 17099 package `openoffice.org-debian-files': error in Version string `
[03:58] <void^> Madpilot: iirc, raindog created his user manually with adduser earlier so he's probably missing a group or so
[03:58] <jean> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[03:58] <raindog> _jason:  i can't get sudo access within gdm.  new install.   trying to edit users/groups to no avail.
[03:58] <Madpilot> _jason, raindog's got a new install, standard, and sudo's never worked for him
[03:58] <kapatid> ubushine, i want to burn Video Disk or DVD Disk
[03:58] <raindog> void^:  you are correct
[03:58] <r0bin> kapatid, gnomebaker
[03:59] <ubushine> kapatid, sure burn dvd or just burn the videos as data files
[03:59] <Madpilot> raindog, that's important - only the first user created has sudo privs by default!
[03:59] <_jason> raindog: do you have access to the original account you created during install?
[03:59] <Mantice> Hey guys
[03:59] <brenner> shadou: try #gnome maybe?
[03:59] <raindog> _jason: yes, i believe it is the orginal
[03:59] <Madpilot> hi Mantice
[03:59] <kapatid> ubushine, nope i want to burn videos so that it can play on my video player
[04:00] <ReWT_AxS> When my mute button stopped working I used the keyboard shortcut to fix it...ever since then when i mute it the light under the button doesnt come on like before....all other lights work, like my radio kill switch for my integrated wireless and my touchpad on off button...
[04:00] <Mantice> You rember me Madpilot :)
[04:00] <shadou> brenner, no response their either, lol
[04:00] <ReWT_AxS> How can I get my mute light working again?
[04:00] <r0bin> raindog: type groups in the console
[04:00] <ubushine> kapatid, i'm not sure what a video player is?
[04:00] <r0bin> ubshine he means his dvd player
[04:00] <raindog> r0bin:  just the one group  'marty'
[04:00] <brenner> shadou: there's: /desktop/gnome/interface/enable_animations
[04:00] <Healot> "vobcopy" to copy DVD chapters in harddisk, "transcode" to rip DVDs into AVI/MPEG with suitable encoders...
[04:00] <brenner>  ... but it sounds like that will disable panel sliding too
[04:01] <Madpilot> raindog, no wonder sudo doesn't work, you should be in a whole bunch of groups...
[04:01] <kapatid> ubushine, like portable DVD? like CD's sold on Movie Shop?
[04:01] <shadou> Not fussed on panel sliding, I have xgl & compiz for a reason
[04:01] <Mantice> What's this new eye candy linux :)
[04:01] <virgule> hey guys I am screwed! I have a '--help' file right here I want to remove it but rm just wont let me it keep spilling that --help text :/
[04:01] <ReWT_AxS> Mantice, huh?
[04:01] <r0bin> I an in robin adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin
[04:01] <shadou> Mantice, It's pimp, that's what.
[04:01] <kapatid> ubushine, i want to make things like that
[04:01] <ReWT_AxS> where?
[04:01] <noomz> PLz anyone help me about firefox?
[04:01] <raindog> madpilot:  as you can easily tell I have a lot to learn.
[04:01] <Mantice> :)
[04:01] <NickGarvey> virgule: put it in "
[04:01] <shadou> He's talking about xgl&compiz.
[04:01] <LethalSword> is there no way to log in as root in graphical mode?
[04:01] <ReWT_AxS> :( teeeelllll meh
[04:01] <Mantice> Yeah
[04:01] <noomz> i cant open after dist-upgrade
[04:01] <NickGarvey> or try
[04:01] <ubushine> kapatid, i'm not sure other than dvd -- gnomebaker does burn dvds
[04:01] <_jason> raindog: reboot and choose 'recovery mode' form the grub prompt then issue the command 'adduser your_username admin'
[04:01] <Madpilot> raindog, fair enough - so do I :P
[04:01] <NickGarvey> "rm ./--help"
[04:01] <_jason> LethalSword: that is a bad idea
[04:01] <Mantice> Does ubuntu support xgl / compiz ?
[04:01] <shadou> I'm running it now, Mantice - with a transparent console on one of my cube faces
[04:01] <jean> how do i fix this error?
[04:02] <raindog> _jason:  okay, rebooting
[04:02] <shadou> Mantice, dapper drake certainly does
[04:02] <Mantice> nice :)
[04:02] <jean> dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 17099 package `openoffice.org-debian-files': error in Version string `
[04:02] <LethalSword> why _jason
[04:02] <Zanth> good day, how difficult is it to "upgrade" to dapper?
[04:02] <ReWT_AxS> Mantice, where do you get it?
[04:02] <virgule> NickGarvey: you are my new hero! have a nice day ...
[04:02] <kapatid> ubushine, yep it do but only cd images and dvd images
[04:02] <ReWT_AxS> Can I have a SS, Mantice
[04:02] <LethalSword> i cant make folders in alot of places
[04:02] <r0bin> Zanth, as difficult to replace your apt/sources.list
[04:02] <LethalSword> is there a way?
[04:02] <Zanth> oh sweet
[04:02] <_jason> LethalSword: use sudo
[04:02] <LethalSword> i dont understand sudo
[04:02] <r0bin> Zanth, basically search/replace breezy with dapper
[04:02] <Madpilot> LethalSword, store your own files in your home directory - the rest of the stuff is owned by root, not your user
[04:02] <Mantice> I think you should ask shadou
[04:02] <ubushine> kapatid, try graveman
[04:02] <ReWT_AxS> sudo is a more secure way to use root.
[04:02] <_jason> LethalSword: for example to create firefox in /opt: sudo mkdir /opt/firefox
[04:03] <LethalSword> ok
[04:03] <Zanth> rObin, literally word for word that is it?
[04:03] <void^> LethalSword: technically, you aren't meant to create folders outside of your home unless installing software, maybe.
[04:03] <ReWT_AxS> it's the same thing though root is constant and sudo isnt
[04:03] <kapatid> ubushine, yeh i heard about it, is there wiki on how can i install it?
[04:03] <r0bin> Zanth, that's what I did, and I'm running dapper =)
[04:03] <LethalSword> thats what im doing but i cant install crap
[04:03] <noomz> ??? My Firefox cant WORK after Dist-Upgrade? It says Segmentation Fault ...
[04:03] <Zanth> cool, I'll go try that now, thanks
[04:03] <_jason> LethalSword: are you still trying to install firefox 1.5?
[04:03] <LethalSword> im trying to install firefox thrue crossover
[04:03] <ubushine> kapatid,  install graveman? just use synaptic
[04:03] <ReWT_AxS> shadou, what is this eye candy linux stuff Mantice is talking about? CAn you please xplain?
[04:03] <shadou> ReWT_AxS, let me find you a URL. One sec.
[04:03] <raindog> _jason:  done, restarting gdm.
[04:03] <ReWT_AxS> ty
[04:04] <_jason> LethalSword: I don't know about crossover, but the wiki works just fine
[04:04] <Madpilot> LethalSword, why are you trying to install FF thru Crossover Office?
[04:04] <kapatid> ubushine, k im workin on it tenks a lot
[04:04] <ubushine> sure
[04:04] <r0bin> LethalSword, what's wrong with downloading the firefox in a tar.gz from getfirefox.com ?? run it as normal user
[04:04] <Mantice> hey guys how to i make ubuntu bot search
[04:04] <Mantice> !xgl
[04:04] <Madpilot> LethalSword, if you want FF1.5 there are Linux-native versions
[04:04] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[04:04] <_jason> Mantice: search for what?
[04:04] <shadou> ReWT_AxS,  http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[04:04] <Mantice> noooooooooooooooooooooooo
[04:04] <LethalSword> i dont know how to install it and that site that tells u tells u to make a directory that u cant make
[04:04] <Mantice> Dapper is still beta right?
[04:04] <r0bin> very close to not being beta
[04:04] <ReWT_AxS> shadou, can you get this in breezy? Or must you use dapper?
[04:05] <Madpilot> LethalSword, you can with sudo - "sudo mkdir new/directory/name"
[04:05] <Mantice> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper.
[04:05] <shadou> ReWT_AxS, you must use Dapper.
[04:05] <Mantice> I thought Dapper was a beta
[04:05] <Mantice> !DAPPER
[04:05] <ReWT_AxS> How do I upgrade from Breezy to Dapper in 64 bit?
[04:05] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[04:05] <jean> is it safe to delete dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 17099 package `openoffice.org-debian-files': error in Version string `
[04:05] <ubushine> kapatid, you can also try this website to burn from the commandline: http://ghaint.no-ip.org/~k2/debian/dvdburn.html
[04:05] <_jason> jean: what are you trying to install?
[04:05] <Madpilot> Mantice, it is, but the beta releases are fairly usable
[04:05] <NickGarvey> apt-get dist-upgrade would upgrade it right?
[04:06] <Healot> yes...
[04:06] <shadou> if you edit your sources.list and change all the breezy to dapper, then do apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, that'll work ;] 
[04:06] <LethalSword> sudo tar -C /opt -x -z -v -f firefox-1.5.0.1.tar.gz
[04:06] <jean> _jason: theres an error in status preventing me from installing
[04:06] <NickGarvey> alrighty
[04:06] <_jason> jean: installing what?
[04:06] <NickGarvey> I'm going to wait till its out of beta though
[04:06] <jean> _jason: anything
[04:07] <NickGarvey> thanks
[04:07] <Shotgun> hey, this is a erap question the answer given didn't work, how to i get the man pages on c code for gcc?
[04:07] <Shotgun> erap=repeat oops
[04:07] <Mantice> Thanks Madpilot, Ill just wait out for the final version.
[04:07] <jean> _jason: flex, bin86
[04:08] <raindog> _jason madpilot : that did the trick...sudo access regained.  Thanks for the help.
[04:08] <Iceman> dang to bad no one still distributes a linux distro that will run from fat32 dos ....
[04:08] <_jason> jean: that error occurs when you issue apt-get install flex bin86?
[04:08] <Madpilot> raindog, glad it worked
[04:08] <Iceman> used to be a couple
[04:09] <gazanfer> can anyone suggest a good archiver to handle tar/gz/bz2 files in x?
[04:09] <Shotgun> how do i install the man pages for c and c++?
[04:09] <_priest_> xiu todos vocs a
[04:09] <Healot> ark or file-roller
[04:09] <Shotgun> i can't find the package
[04:09] <_jason> Shotgun: install manpages-dev package
[04:09] <LethalSword> sudo tar wont let me extract into the opt folder
[04:09] <Madpilot> gazanfer, Gnome's default archive manager seems to work fine
[04:09] <jean> _jason: the status had a line which was messed up...i just deleted the messed up text and it worked
[04:09] <Madpilot> !info manpages-dev
[04:10] <overrider> does someone know if there is a chinese-english-chinese dictionary for ubuntu/linux ?
[04:10] <ubotu> manpages-dev: (Manual pages about using GNU/Linux for development), section doc, is optional. Version: 2.02-2 (breezy), Packaged size: 1055 kB, Installed size: 2668 kB
[04:10] <gazanfer> Madpilot, im not using gnome :)
[04:10] <Madpilot> gazanfer, ah, nevermind, then :P
[04:10] <LethalSword> can someone help me in pm
[04:10] <LethalSword> because that site is full of crap
[04:10] <Madpilot> LethalSword, which site?
[04:11] <gazanfer> Madpilot, can i install gnome's default archive manager in xfce?
[04:11] <Shotgun> i get this msg when i type "sudo apt-get install manpages-dev"
[04:11] <Healot> overrider, "stardic" or "pydict"
[04:11] <Shotgun> Package manpages-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[04:11] <_jason> LethalSword: did you make sure that /opt exists?
[04:11] <LethalSword> that wiki.unbuntu.com/newfirefoxrelease
[04:11] <LethalSword> it does
[04:11] <Shotgun> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[04:11] <Shotgun> is only available from another source
[04:11] <Shotgun> E: Package manpages-dev has no installation candidate
[04:11] <_jason> LethalSword: put your error on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:11] <Madpilot> gazanfer, no idea, never used xfce - but it uses gtk libs, doesn't it?
[04:11] <_jason> Shotgun: put your /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:11] <Healot> overrider, Word Processing (universe repos) section
[04:11] <overrider> ok thank you Healot

[04:14] <steve___> anyone have trouble when upgrading to dapper drake with ndiswapper for a bcm driver? (broadcom)
[04:14] <steve___> ?
[04:14] <balu1> i think my comp = retarded, x log shows no errors, says dri was loaded, says direct rendering was enabled,
[04:14] <Healot> sorry Graphics, NotLarry
[04:14] <balu1> i go to terminal type glxinfo, no rendering.
[04:14] <jean> did someone say its hard to turn this x86 kernel into a 64bit?
[04:14] <ReWT_AxS> notlarry you are running ubuntu as well now?
[04:14] <Madpilot> markymarknz, they're down from here too
[04:15] <markymarknz> oh cheers for a response
[04:15] <markymarknz> I thought I was a ghost or something :P
[04:15] <LethalSword> now firefox wont open
[04:15] <jean> Healot: did you say its hard to use a 64bit kernel with a 32 bit dist
[04:15] <LethalSword> /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:15] <raindog> Trying to mount floppy drive.  I get the message Error: givene UDI is not a mountable volume.  Can anyone tell me or give me a link to solve this problem?
[04:15] <markymarknz> dapper desk applet is pretty funky
[04:16] <ReWT_AxS> jean why ould you want to?
[04:16] <_jason> LethalSword: read the notes at the top of the wiki page
[04:16] <Healot> it is... I didn't say "converting 32bit kernel into 64bit" though...
[04:16] <Madpilot> LethalSword, best way to get FF1.5 is to wait for Dapper...
[04:16] <gazanfer> after i enabled universe repositories, searching in synaptic takes ages. how can i fix this=?
[04:16] <NotLarry> I decided to try ubuntu on my lappy, got a test box I had it running on.  got a BSDi box in production, migrating to a freebsd box, and an openbsd box for a dns server, oh, windows to play games instead of an xbox:)
[04:16] <ReWT_AxS> When my mute button stopped working I used the keyboard shortcut to fix it...ever since then when i mute it the light under the button doesnt come on like before....all other lights work, like my radio kill switch for my integrated wireless and my touchpad on off button...
[04:16] <jean> ReWT_AxS: because mom has dialup :>
[04:16] <r0bin> Something unpredictable.. but in the end it's right.. I hope you have the time of your life..
[04:16] <Madpilot> gazanfer, not a lot you can do, they're big repos
[04:16] <ReWT_AxS> How can I get my mute light working again?
[04:16] <ReWT_AxS> jean, well good luck.
[04:17] <LethalSword> ah ha now i cant open firefox at all
[04:17] <balu1> u vmware users, what vmware did u use?
[04:17] <ubuntu> HOLA
[04:17] <_jason> LethalSword: what error do you get now?
[04:17] <gazanfer> Madpilot, shouldnt it download package lists from all repos when i update it, and then search locally on this files when i search? i mean, i have no problem with apt-get or apt-cache. just synaptic.
[04:17] <LethalSword> nothing
[04:17] <jean> ReWT_AxS: hehe thanks i will install a 64 bit OS like the amd64 one or a windows 64bit later however
[04:17] <Madpilot> LethalSword, you did see the big warnings at the top of that FF1.5 page, right?
[04:17] <ubuntu> HOLA
[04:17] <LethalSword> it just doesnt open
[04:17] <ubuntu> COMO ESTAS
[04:17] <Madpilot> !es
[04:17] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[04:17] <ReWT_AxS> ok
[04:17] <ubuntu> USTEDES TIENEN LINUX
[04:17] <ubuntu> TAMBIEN
[04:18] <ReWT_AxS> err gay my firefox just crashed
[04:18] <_jason> ubuntu: /join #ubuntu-es
[04:18] <jeffer> can someone help me out with updating firefox
[04:18] <_jason> LethalSword: what does 'which firefox' say?
[04:18] <Madpilot> gazanfer, no idea - except that I swear Synapic was faster in Hoary than it is in Breezy...
[04:18] <ubuntu> DIME
[04:18] <_jason> jeffer: to version 1.5?
[04:18] <jeffer> ya the latest one
[04:19] <_jason> ubotu: tell jeffer about ff1.5
[04:19] <jeffer> i'm new to linux and installing stuff is hard for me
[04:19] <LethalSword> i installed it u hobos
[04:19] <_john> i tried searching google, but i couldnt get the exact search terms to find what I was looking for... so ill ask here. I've been running dual monitors on gentoo for over a year, with kde, and I have always wanted to try gnome in addition but couldnt stand to wait for it to compile. I recently installed kubuntu, and just installed gnome (in like three minutes) and i have both working.. my question is can i possibly run kde and gnome sessions a
[04:19] <LethalSword> :P
[04:20] <Madpilot> jeffer, then the easiest way to get the new Firefox would be to wait until the new version of Ubuntu comes out in a while
[04:20] <_jason> jeffer: if 1.07 is working fine and you aren't comfortable with the terminal I would recommend waiting for the enxt ubuntu release since there is no firefox1.5 package in breezy
[04:20] <FlannelKing> jeffer: with synaptic, it's easy!
[04:20] <jeffer> o ic
[04:20] <shadou> For anyone who wondered about what I ask, to disable the 'panel launch animation', the gconf-editor key is in \apps\panel\global\enable_animation
[04:20] <jeffer> when will the new version come out?
[04:20] <bluefoxicy> Am I the only one that immediately changes the theme on Ubuntu after an install?
[04:21] <bluefoxicy> I mean seriously brown and orange
[04:21] <Healot> no official release of 1.5.0.1 though :)
[04:21] <jeffer> i used synaptic and it would not let me update direfox
[04:21] <jeffer> *firefox
[04:21] <Madpilot> jeffer, looks like it'll be out in June
[04:21] <bluefoxicy> The two ugliest colors in the universe, at least they're not an eyesore red though.
[04:21] <ubuntu> hey
[04:21] <ReWT_AxS> I'm running 1.5 in breezy?
[04:21] <GTroy> am I the only person without XGL?
[04:21] <jeffer> aight...i guess i'll wait until then
[04:21] <Madpilot> bluefoxicy, better than blue & grey
[04:21] <_jason> GTroy: no
[04:21] <jeffer> o ya
[04:21] <ubuntu> we got that breezy
[04:21] <ReWT_AxS> GTroy, I don't have it?
[04:21] <GTroy> _jason: whew
[04:22] <bluefoxicy> Madpilot:  soft blues and soft greens seem to be the least offensive; although I'm not fond of a seagreen theme like lush.  It does look nice though.
[04:22] <ReWT_AxS> I'm going to ait until it is out of BETA.
[04:22] <_john> what is all the hype about xgl?
[04:22] <bluefoxicy> Madpilot:  I don't like my title bar to be EXTREMELY LOUD
[04:22] <GTroy> ReWT_AxS: you tell me
[04:22] <Madpilot> bluefoxicy, brown is extremely loud? :P
[04:22] <GTroy> XGL is the new osx
[04:22] <bluefoxicy> Madpilot:  have you seen dapper?
[04:22] <ReWT_AxS> Tell you what?
[04:22] <GTroy> well for looks
[04:22] <bluefoxicy> Madpilot:  brown is just ugly.  ORANGE IS EXTREMELY LOUD.
[04:22] <Madpilot> bluefoxicy, yes, it's very orange :P
[04:22] <JoeLiTo> Hi all
[04:23] <ReWT_AxS> wtf is up with the forums?
[04:23] <misfit_toy> orange is *loud*?
[04:23] <jeffer> thanks for the help friends.
[04:23] <Madpilot> Dapper's orange is fairly loud
[04:23] <jeffer> i'm out
[04:23] <shadou> Anyone know if the Forum downtime is Planned?
[04:23] <bluefoxicy> misfit_toy:  yes, as in, if I have to stare at it all day I will fucking kill someone.
[04:23] <JoeLiTo> Anyone knows where to get the latest openoffice for breezy?
[04:24] <_jason> !ooo2
[04:24] <ubotu> To upgrade to OOo 2.0.x, see http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2005-October/012520.html (add one of the 'deb' lines to sources.list and update+upgrade)
[04:24] <misfit_toy> bluefoxicy, wow, colorblindness could be a good thing in that case
[04:24] <JoeLiTo> thanks ubotu
[04:25] <noomz> --- iFound this problem>> i cant run firefox with my profile, but not other ! What should i do ???
[04:25] <misfit_toy> *dabbled
[04:25] <digital00> are you all from america? :o
[04:25] <titan> linux newb here with some questions. I have no clue how to compile source but found some instructions on it. The only problem is when I do the ./configure command I get this error:  no sutable lex found. Please install the 'flex' package. I can not figure out how to find it, let alone install it.
[04:26] <jason__> konnitiha
[04:26] <brenner> digital00: no
[04:26] <Madpilot> titan, what are you trying to compile?
[04:26] <ReWT_AxS> when will the forums be back up?
[04:26] <titan> wine
[04:26] <cleit0n> ae eu consegui instalar o  modem intel 537 no ubuntu, o kppp reconhece tudo mais.. mais na hora de discar fica inicializando o modem.. e num sai disso, alguma dica?
[04:26] <Madpilot> ReWT_AxS, try asking on #ubuntuforums
[04:26] <Madpilot> !es
[04:26] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[04:27] <jason__> ja,matane.
[04:27] <Draconicus> I need a camera recording program that is somewhat graphical and works. What can I use?
[04:27] <Shotgun> when u submit a problem to "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/" how long is the expected turnaround, untill it is fixed or i find out what i've done wrong?
[04:27] <digital00> mmh..
[04:27] <digital00> so where are you all from?
[04:27] <Madpilot> digital00, this isn't really a chat channel - for that, join #ubuntu-offtopic. Thanks.
[04:27] <titan> Madpilot, I am trying to compile wine 0.9.6
[04:28] <digital00> sorry, i didnt know #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:28] <Madpilot> titan, you can get it without compiling
[04:28] <Madpilot> !tell titan about wine
[04:28] <jodanlime> so.... what do you guys think about the ubuntu delay?
[04:28] <brenner> Shotgun: that's just a pastebin.  you use it to paste text to show others.  people don't browse it!
[04:28] <noomz> noomz@MATRIX:/usr/lib/firefox$ ./firefox-bin
[04:28] <noomz> ./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libmozjs.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:28] <Healot> go the the liquor store to buy your own wine :)
[04:28] <_jason> jodanlime: #ubuntu-offtopic is more appropriate for that
[04:28] <noomz> What is it?
[04:29] <titan> Madpilot, I know but I have to apply two patches to it to get it to work correctly with World Of Warcraft, so I need to compile from source.
[04:29] <ReWT_AxS> When my mute button stopped working I used the keyboard shortcut to fix it...ever since then when i mute it the light under the button doesnt come on like before....all other lights work, like my radio kill switch for my integrated wireless and my touchpad on off button...
[04:29] <_jason> noomz: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[04:29] <Draconicus> I have a deadline to meet. What can I use to record video? Streamer doesn't work!
[04:29] <ReWT_AxS> How can I get my mute light working again?
[04:29] <noomz> just dist-upgrade
[04:29] <Madpilot> titan, ah, no idea - never bothered with wine
[04:29] <_jason> noomz: are you using breezy?
[04:29] <brenner> Draconicus: kino maybe?
[04:29] <noomz> _jason: no, its Dapper
[04:29] <titan> Madpilot, thanks.
[04:30] <titan> Does anyone know whre I can find and install a flex pachage?
[04:30] <Shotgun> brenner: so what should i do? i need the c man pages
[04:30] <_jason> noomz: ok because in breezy that directory doesn't exist.  Maybe try asking in #ubuntu+1
[04:30] <_jason> !info flex
[04:30] <ubotu> flex: (A fast lexical analyzer generator.), section devel, is optional. Version: 2.5.31-31 (breezy), Packaged size: 250 kB, Installed size: 764 kB
[04:30] <titan> Draconicus, have you tried fraps yet?
[04:30] <Falstius> titan, why don't you just use the most recent wine (which probably has the patches?)
[04:30] <brenner> Shotgun: install manpages-dev
[04:30] <_jason> titan: main repository
[04:31] <_jason> Shotgun: did you put the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ ?
[04:31] <Shotgun> brenner: thats what i tried but i got "Reading package lists... Done
[04:31] <Shotgun> Building dependency tree... Done
[04:31] <Shotgun> Package manpages-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[04:31] <Shotgun> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[04:31] <Shotgun> is only available from another source
[04:31] <Shotgun> E: Package manpages-dev has no installation candidate
[04:31] <titan> Falstius, not to versed in linux yet so I wanted to follow the tut on the Ubuntu forms for now rather than deviate.
[04:31] <Shotgun> "
[04:31] <_jason> Shotgun: don't paste here please
[04:31] <Shotgun> and yes i did post on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:31] <Shotgun> kk soz
[04:31] <_jason> Shotgun: link?
[04:32] <ardchoille> Anyone know what happened to the forums?
[04:32] <Madpilot> Shotgun, next time, just paste us the pastebin url
[04:32] <Shotgun> _jason: soz what? i didn't follow
[04:32] <titan> _jason, what do you mean main repository, please remember I am very new to linux.
[04:32] <jodanlime> is there a something that I can assign the buttons on my keyboard that I dont use to do something?
[04:32] <Shotgun> ar
[04:32] <ftp4> i just installed ubuntu but i went to terminal and it does not show my network card.  Debian always detects it.. what can I do?
[04:32] <Shotgun> kk
[04:32] <_jason> Shotgun: a link to the paste
[04:32] <_jason> ubotu: tell titan about synaptic
[04:32] <Shotgun> half min
[04:32] <Falstius> titan: okay.  It might be easier for you to just grab the most recent wine (and not have to compile it).  You can add the winehq repository to your apt/sources.list and voila.
[04:32] <Shotgun> gotta find again ;)
[04:32] <Madpilot> ardchoille, something ate them :P - no idea, actually
[04:33] <ardchoille> Madpilot: lol
[04:33] <_jason> titan: you can install flex using synaptic
[04:33] <Ads_> anyone know how to stop this laggy mouse problem in ubuntu?
[04:33] <Jeffrae> hi
[04:33] <Madpilot> ardchoille, but you're the 3rd person to wonder in under ten minutes ;)
[04:34] <Jeffrae> Is anyone using LIRC IR here?
[04:34] <titan> _jason, still lost :( what is synaptic? Does it come default or do I have to go and get it and struggle with yet another thing to install that I have no clue how to install.
[04:34] <_jason> titan: check your private messages from ubotu
[04:34] <Shotgun> got it, here is my paste bin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10267
[04:34] <pike_> seems like since i ran apt-get update all users now have read access to the other user home directories... is that normal?
[04:34] <_jason> pike_: that has always been the case
[04:34] <_jason> afaik
[04:35] <Madpilot> titan, System -> Admin -> Synaptic; when it asks for a pw put your own user pw in
[04:35] <pike_> ok
[04:35] <Draconicus> titan: I can't find a package called "fraps"
[04:35] <titan> oh, just seen that button down there
[04:35] <pike_> that does suck a little bit..
[04:35] <Madpilot> Shotgun, manpages-dev does exist -
[04:35] <Madpilot> !info manpages-dev
[04:35] <ubotu> manpages-dev: (Manual pages about using GNU/Linux for development), section doc, is optional. Version: 2.02-2 (breezy), Packaged size: 1055 kB, Installed size: 2668 kB
[04:35] <Ads_> why does my mouse lag ARGHH
[04:36] <shadou> It doesn't like you.
[04:36] <Shadowpillar> are the 6-week-delay meetings over?
[04:36] <Ads_> lol
[04:36] <brenner> Ads_: video issue maybe?
[04:36] <bimberi> Shadowpillar: yes
[04:36] <Shadowpillar> aww
[04:36] <Ads_> brenner: video issue?
[04:36] <Shadowpillar> I was gonna say that it was a good move
[04:36] <_jason> Shotgun: uncomment the lines that start with ``deb'' in your /etc/apt/sources.list (sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list) and then run 'sudo apt-get update'
[04:36] <aconbere> installing apache2 / php5?
[04:36] <aconbere> I'm confused where to find those in synaptic
[04:36] <_jason> !lamp
[04:36] <ubotu> hmm... lamp is Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, one of the standard internet server installations. Installing LAMP in Ubuntu is fairly straightforward. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[04:37] <brenner> Ads_: just a stab
[04:37] <Shotgun> ok
[04:37] <Shadowpillar> !ekiga
[04:37] <ubotu> Shadowpillar: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:37] <bimberi> Shadowpillar: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperDelayMeetingSummary
[04:37] <aconbere> ubotu, thanks
[04:37] <ubotu> no problem, aconbere
[04:37] <aconbere> :)
[04:37] <OmegaAlpha> are the official ubuntu forums busy for everyone right now?
[04:37] <Ads_> brenner: if it was a video issue how would i know how to resolve it..........
[04:37] <aconbere> argh... bot
[04:37] <aconbere> hehe
[04:37] <titan> Darconicus, it does not come standard. It is a program used in Windows to record video on the computer, such as games and such. Not sure if they have a linux distro or if it will run with wine, just thought I would suggest it.
[04:37] <Healot> Lampers
[04:37] <aconbere> I meant to thank _jason
[04:37] <Madpilot> aconbere, yeah, but a polite bot :P
[04:37] <Shadowpillar> anyone here know of any repos with the newest ekiga?
[04:37] <aconbere> indeed
[04:37] <_jason> aconbere: np :)
[04:37] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: down at present
[04:38] <Draconicus> Isn't there a single decent piece of video recording software out there yet?!
[04:38] <titan> Madpilot, Thanks again.
[04:38] <bosco> go to the newbs room for newbs with ubuntu
[04:38] <_jason> bosco: ?
[04:38] <bimberi> bosco: and where is that?
[04:38] <Madpilot> bosco, this is the "newbs" room...
[04:38] <intelikey> anyone good with desktop tweeking.   i want to set up twm to have a .jpg wallpaper,  can that be done ?
[04:38] <ReWT_AxS> It is here.
[04:38] <brenner> Ads_: is the system in general lagging?  or just the mouse?
[04:38] <ReWT_AxS> Just save it as jpeg
[04:39] <ReWT_AxS> lol
[04:39] <Ads_> brenner: the mouse and keyboard lags occasionally, the system seems fine however
[04:39] <intelikey> ReWT_AxS were you addressing me ?
[04:39] <Ads_> brenner: for example sometimes upon a random boot even the login manager screen would lag with keyboard input
[04:40] <brenner> Ads_: well, reconfigging xorg is something to try...if only just to eliminate that cause.
[04:40] <kapatid> anyone know how to install nero linux?
[04:40] <Ads_> brenner: i will give it a go
[04:40] <Madpilot> Shotgun, you still here?
[04:40] <jean> 3hrs to download kernel source on dialup
[04:40] <ReWT_AxS> yes
[04:40] <brenner> Ads_: do ya know how?
[04:40] <Shotgun> yup just pasting the result is paste.ubuntu
[04:40] <Shotgun> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10269
[04:40] <Ads_> brenner: not yet i don't i was just about to look it up under the manual.........
[04:40] <intelikey> ReWT_AxS have you ever set a wall paper in twm ?
[04:41] <Shotgun> oops
[04:41] <Shotgun> nm
[04:41] <Shotgun> brb
[04:41] <ReWT_AxS> twm?
[04:41] <Madpilot> Shotgun, compare your sources.list to this standard one: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[04:41] <brenner> Ads_: are you comfortable with the terminal?
[04:41] <Ads_> brenner: yes i am
[04:42] <intelikey> that's kinda what i thought.
[04:42] <brenner> Ads_: you need to run this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:42] <pike_> what chmod numbers to make a dir (home) readable only for owner and root? i dont want a friend with ssh access to be able to cat my documents in home directory i might feel like starting a diary or something :p
[04:42] <brenner> Ads_: it sill create a backup xorg.conf file, so you can revert if needed
[04:42] <jodanlime> I have some quick buttons on my keyboard, is there a way to use these in ubuntu?
[04:42] <Healot> "gcc-doc"
[04:42] <Shotgun> madpilot: i had to update significatly
[04:42] <brenner> Ads_: if you're unsure of any options, just pressing enter to do the default thing is best
[04:43] <slipk> whats the package name to install xorg?
[04:43] <Shotgun> _jason: thx for help
[04:43] <Ads_> brenner: thanks i will give it a shot
[04:43] <intelikey> twm help please.   is it possable to set a picture to the background in twm ?     .Xresources maybe  ?
[04:43] <bimberi> slipk: xserver-xorg
[04:43] <_jason> Shotgun: np
[04:43] <brenner> s/sill/will :)
[04:44] <titan> Thanks alot guys. I will ask again when I run across my next problem
[04:44] <Shotgun> just for the future, i need to run "sudo apt-get update" reguarly to make sure i'm up to date yes?
[04:44] <crxyem> anyone here familiar with acpi events ??
[04:44] <brenner> Shotgun: that will just refresh the package list
[04:45] <intelikey> Shotgun it whould be a cron job if you have static inet
[04:45] <intelikey> there is an update manager in ubuntu
[04:45] <MasterJ> Does anyone have end all beat all SPAM solution?
[04:46] <Madpilot> Shotgun, then "sudo apt-get upgrade" if you don't want to use the GUI Updater
[04:46] <Klick_> hey all, can anyone help me figure out how to change my mouse theme, its stuck on Human, and i tried folloing the guide on the theme website and it doesnt work
[04:46] <intelikey> MasterJ > /dev/null
[04:46] <_jason> MasterJ: gmail's filter does a very good job imo
[04:46] <r0bin> MasterJ, But of course, Spam on toast with some garlic and chilli sauce = To die for! :D
[04:46] <intelikey> :)
[04:46] <r0bin> HAHAAHA GNOME2.14
[04:46] <Klick_> when i goto mouse preferences it only shows one theme also, and that Human
[04:47] <_mick_> what's the wiki URL for ndiswrapper?
[04:47] <brenner> r0bin: yeah.  nothing like canned processed meat.
[04:47] <Shotgun> i didn't even know there was a gui updater
[04:47] <slipk> whats the package name to install xorg?
[04:47] <_jason> !ndiswrapper
[04:47] <ubotu> ndiswrapper is, like, totally, a way to support Windows wireless drivers, but it is buggy compared to native support. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper

[04:47] <Madpilot> Klick_, have you tried this howto? http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Desktop_EyeCandy#HOWTO:_INSTALL_CURSOR_THEMES_ON_UBUNTU.2FGNOME
[04:47] <brenner> Klick_: how'd you install the other theme?
[04:47] <Shotgun> but for majority of use i just ssh to pc so, cmd line is easier
[04:47] <OmegaAlpha> any VNC users in here?
[04:47] <r0bin> yo
[04:47] <Kelsey23> Ive used VNC
[04:47] <MasterJ> No seriously, I am using Evolution...I know I could be using Firebird, but I want to use Evolution.  The SPAM filtering sucks.
[04:48] <Klick_> brenner it had me copy a extracted archive to /usr/share/themes
[04:48] <Kelsey23> But I belive that Terminal Services is superior
[04:48] <nalioth_zZz> ardchoille: y'all be safe in here
[04:48] <brenner> slipk: what DE are you going to run?
[04:48] <Jeffrae> Hi
[04:48] <Klick_> then modify index.theme
[04:48] <Jeffrae> Any LIRC users here?
[04:48] <ming> I could not get software package from 'universe' respository at work. The PC need to have http proxy in order to access internet. How to fix this ?
[04:48] <brenner> Klick_: Madpilot's link is worth a look.  but you should be able to just drag ad drop like a regular theme
[04:48] <Healot> MasterJ, spam filter doesn't suck, it is hard to write spam rules... spammers are brilliant people too...
[04:48] <ming> I'm able to get software package at home without problems.
[04:48] <OmegaAlpha> Kelsey23, well i want to be able to access my computer from a friends house.. will Terminal Services do that?
[04:49] <titan> oh, got another question really quick.  I really hate all of this stuff about the root being the owner of all the files and I can not edit them and such. How do I log in as root?
[04:49] <Madpilot> brenner, not AFAIK. You need the extra app they mention in the gwos doc
[04:49] <Madpilot> titan, you don't
[04:49] <titan> :*(
[04:49] <titan> that sux
[04:49] <bimberi> Shotgun: System -> Administration -> Update Manager, Preferences, Settings, "Internet Updates"
[04:49] <smellican> titan, sudo
[04:49] <smellican> :P
[04:49] <titan> r
[04:49] <smellican> or su
[04:49] <smellican> if you're lazy
[04:49] <Madpilot> titan, when you need to modify root's stuff, you use sudo
[04:49] <OmegaAlpha> Kelsey23, ive been reading the forums about vnc4server, and vnc viewer, and using ssh to tunnel... is all this necessary?

[04:49] <brenner> Madpilot: oh, ok.  guess i was just lucky with this one then
[04:49] <Kelsey23> OmegaAlpha: Terminal Services is for Windows Server systems, so probably not
[04:49] <Draconicus> I am DISGUSTED at this! There's no video recording software for Linux that actually works?! What's wrong with these people?! It's not that complicated! mjpeg is simple enough! I need to record video right away! I thought I could rely on the good ol' Linux community to provide the stuff I need, but no! There's nothing useful at all!
[04:49] <smellican> there's really no reason to enable the root acct
[04:49] <Kr4t05> Does anyone know what that means?
[04:49] <titan> but sudo is hard to use when I am trying to copy things and I am not used to the commands and such to have to use in term
[04:49] <Kelsey23> OmegaAlpha: Get VNC if you are on Linux
[04:50] <Klick_> ahh that works, thanks for the guide
[04:50] <smellican> titan, just use su
[04:50] <smellican> then you will be superuser for the whole session
[04:50] <r0bin> Draconicus:  Orite mate, fuck off boy if you're going to act like a prick.
[04:50] <MasterJ> titan, you get used to it
[04:50] <OmegaAlpha> Kelsey23, that i am.. is it necessary to use ssh along with vnc?
[04:50] <_mick_> is Ubuntu 6.04 a flat version or is it still beta?
[04:50] <Kelsey23> OmegaAlpha:  Bope
[04:50] <Kelsey23> OmegaAlpha:  *Nope
[04:50] <Healot> Draconicus, update your repos list, update the list, search for video recording in Synaptic, and try any of them... see if it's working
[04:51] <Suture> What file logs my network info like connect attempts and things like that?
[04:51] <Zanth> I have received an error while upgrading to dapper:

[04:51] <Shotgun> bimberi: thx mate
[04:51] <OmegaAlpha> Kelsey23, k now what if my box is linux but the remote boxes i will be using are windows... will vnc allow a windows user access my linux box ?
[04:51] <bimberi> Shotgun: np :)
[04:51] <Kelsey23> OmegaAlpha: Yes
[04:51] <r0bin> OmegaAlpha:  yeah
[04:51] <MasterJ> THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY TO FILTER SPAM IN EVOLUTION!!!!
[04:52] <r0bin> MasterJ:  Gmail
[04:52] <bh> Hello, when I build a custom kernel I can't get certain file systems to mount correctly. Does ubuntu use some kind of automounter as a default option at start up ?
[04:52] <OmegaAlpha> Kelsey23, r0bin, how do i do that from a win box? do i need to install a windows program to do so at the windows box (client)
[04:52] <MasterJ> Can I use my Gmail account in evolytion
[04:52] <brenner> bh: check your fstab settings
[04:52] <iGotNoTime> bh, youcan
[04:52] <r0bin> OmegaAlpha:  RealVNC www.realvnc.com
[04:53] <Suture> What file logs my network info like connect attempts and things like that?
[04:53] <iGotNoTime> nevermind
[04:53] <iGotNoTime> :)
[04:53] <rixth> Is it normal to get speeds of 24kb/sec from cdimage.ubuntu.com?
[04:53] <iGotNoTime> brenner, you are quick :P
[04:53] <Kelsey23> OmegaAlpha: Yes, you need a client for Windows
[04:53] <OmegaAlpha> basically i want my bro to able to access my computer.. and for my friend to from his house
[04:53] <ardchoille> MasterJ: yes
[04:53] <jasz> which services are running on this ports: 32770 32771 37728 60254  ??
[04:53] <Draconicus> r0bin: You don't understand. I just spent three hours looking for video capturing software for Linux. I promised my girlfriend that I'd give her a video of myself because she's going away for a while and won't have internet access, but will have a computer that she can use. Now I can't keep that promise.
[04:53] <MasterJ> whooohoooo!
[04:53] <lwizardl> hi
[04:53] <Ads_> brenner: i'v done what u said but unfortunately it didn't help :(
[04:53] <Healot> rixth, is it the small k or or the CAPITAL K?
[04:53] <rixth> kilobytes.
[04:53] <bimberi> !tell MasterJ about gmail
[04:53] <r0bin> Draconicus:  I don't give a shit about your promises. You acted like an asshole and you'd better apoligise for your rudeness.
[04:54] <Healot> then, it the big K
[04:54] <bh> brenner What should I look for ? I mean the file systems are there, but I can't manipulating them with a mount command since it reports those volume as being busy.
[04:54] <bh> It's an odd error
[04:54] <MasterJ> I suppose i will just set my account to forward to my Gmail account
[04:54] <Healot> that's is fine for DSL and Cable i think
[04:54] <bh> I've never seen this before.
[04:54] <tristanmike> r0bin, Draconicus let's try an keep things civil :)
[04:54] <MasterJ> then......take over the world.
[04:54] <trent> Is there any way that I can change on the "Applications Menu" part where the Ubuntu logo is can I change that to a gnome logo or something?
[04:54] <brenner> Ads_: then i suggest hitting the forum when it comes back up
[04:54] <ardchoille> MasterJ: that's gonna require a plugin, lol
[04:55] <MasterJ> hahaha
[04:55] <lwizardl> anyone ever setup ubuntu as a terminal ?
[04:55] <r0bin> Draconicus: VirtualDub Isn't just Windows software iirc, but if it is, use Wine, it works via it.
[04:55] <Dr_Willis> lwizardl,  what kind of 'terminal'
[04:55] <iGotNoTime> bh, when you are looking at fstab in a text editor you can set the drives to automount :)
[04:55] <Jeffrae> gmx filters spam very nicely
[04:55] <Madpilot> trent, Tip #2 here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuickTips
[04:55] <Ads_> brenner: i've noticed however, gnome-terminal cpu usuage runs up to like 20% as soon as i star moving my cursor about the screen the same goes for moving the cursor around the desktop which causes xorg to use up a significant amount of cpu load
[04:56] <Kelsey23> I enjoy communication with people on IRC in Blowfish encryption
[04:56] <brenner> Ads_: so you've confirmed it's the xorg process?
[04:56] <Ads_> yes
[04:56] <Ads_> brenner: yes
[04:56] <brenner> Ads_: a driver change maybe?
[04:56] <iGotNoTime> bh you do have fstab open in a text editor correct?
[04:56] <jonnyzero> I'm trying to burn the flight5 iso to a CD-RW disc under Breezy, but the disc doesn't seem to be becoming bootable. My machine just hangs with Boot CD: on the screen. After burning the disc won't mount, claiming wrong fs type. Do I have to burn in some special mode? DAO? to use a rewritable disc to boot do I have to set something special before burning?
[04:56] <Shadowpillar> Ads_: what vid card you use?
[04:56] <Draconicus> r0bin: I didn't think that video4linux worked through WINE.
[04:57] <Dr_Willis> jonnyzero,  what program ya burning it with?
[04:57] <Ads_> shadowpillar: i'm using the interal one on my laptop from SiS
[04:57] <jonnyzero> Dr_Willis, K3B
[04:57] <Subtle> *sigh* Where can I go to ask a total f*ing noob linux question?
[04:57] <fiveiron> whats your q
[04:57] <nalioth_zZz> Subtle: here is good
[04:57] <ardchoille> jonnyzero: are you burning the ISO as an image or as a file?
[04:57] <Healot> vid4linux is a native linux app
[04:57] <Dr_Willis> jonnyzero,  interesting.. perhaps blank the cdrw first then burn at 1x
[04:57] <jasz> Subtle, here is good
[04:57] <percent20> has anyone had a problem with mplayer not going full screen?
[04:57] <percent20> !mplayer

[04:57] <smellican> noobs ask noob questions here all the time lol
[04:57] <jonnyzero> as an image, I'll try burning at lower speed.
[04:57] <bosco> Subtle, you can ask it in here
[04:57] <Dr_Willis> Subtle,  #linux or #linuxhelp is good also.
[04:57] <Zanth> does anyone have any advice concerning my above error? for convenience, here it is again: http://pastebin.ca/45783
[04:57] <brenner> nalioth_zZz: good call
[04:58] <Healot> why the hell you're running a native linux program with Windows emulator?
[04:58] <bosco> Subtle, but you can ask me
[04:58] <Subtle> Swanky.  I'm trying to install synergy, but I can't seem to extract a rpm file.
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> Subtle,  best - is to use google and find the answer. :p
[04:58] <babo> Hi, I can't mount my usb drive - when I type    mount /dev/usb /mnt/test   ... I get a /dev/usb not a block device .... help ?
[04:58] <Healot> Subtle, ask what is Linux :)
[04:58] <bh> iGotNoTime, it looks correct
[04:58] <ReWT_AxS> When my mute button stopped working I used the keyboard shortcut to fix it...ever since then when i mute it the light under the button doesnt come on like before....all other lights work, like my radio kill switch for my integrated wireless and my touchpad on off button...
[04:58] <ReWT_AxS> How can I get my mute light working again?
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> babo,  because it should be /dev/sda1 or similer.. not /dev/usb
[04:58] <fiveiron> Subtle: and you're using Ubuntu I assume?
[04:58] <Subtle> Aye indeed
[04:58] <bh> Actually, it mounts fine in the prepackaged kernels, just not the custom one and I'm wondering what was missed.
[04:58] <Subtle> I tried opening the file directly, doesn't seem to do anything
[04:58] <fiveiron> sudo apt-get install rpm  perhaps?
[04:58] <replacement_kill> there a prob with mounting usb hard disk
[04:59] <babo> Dr_Willis: what, my usb device is /dev/sda1 ?
[04:59] <Subtle> I also tried from the run dialog, no bueno
[04:59] <replacement_kill> the device dont seem to function
[04:59] <bosco> Subtle, what verson do you use breezy badger
[04:59] <iGotNoTime> bh, each drive you want automounted are set to automount?
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> babo,  correct. a usb drive will appear as a 'scsi' device.
[04:59] <shadou> Tricky question, I have a few drives plugged into my system with NTFS partitions, I want to be able to access them on a non-privileged (non-root) account, how is this done? I assume i'm missing some mount params.
[04:59] <fiveiron> shadou: ntfs partitions will be read-only
[04:59] <nalioth_zZz> shadou: add "umask=000" into your fstab
[04:59] <Subtle> Uhh... come again?
[04:59] <replacement_kill> i have the same problem..when i plug my usb hard disk the led blinking red, but nothing happens on my ubuntu, i waited for several minutes, nothing seem to came up
[04:59] <babo> Dr_Willis: but I already have a scsi sda1 harddrive ?
[04:59] <bh> iGotNoTime, I'm worried about the complaint where it reports the volumes are already mounted and/or are busy.
[05:00] <bh> I don't think it's an fstab issue
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> babo,  then it will appear as some OTHER scsi device.
[05:00] <fiveiron> shadou: i'm currently backing my stuff up thats on an ntfs partition to convert it to fat32
[05:00] <shadou> fiveiron, I'm aware of that, I just want to share em over samba so I can get stuff off them, then wipe em.
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> babo,  use 'dmesg' and look for the info messages.
[05:00] <babo> Dr_Willis: in my /etc/fstab right ?
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> babo,  or do 'fdisk -l' and see whats showing up where.
[05:00] <ezu> i have tried a lot of different ways to mount a shamba share that is mounted on boot through fstab, i need it to mount as user and group root but to follow the read write privs on the directory.. i have tried umask=000, rw, and a lot of different ways of setting it up
[05:00] <LinuxPoser> Are there any really good ubuntu n00b tutorials??
[05:00] <iGotNoTime> bh, then I guess I am too new to help sorry for interrupting
[05:01] <ReWT_AxS> LinuxPoser, to do what
[05:01] <LinuxPoser> just basic usage and such
[05:01] <Jeffrae> Hello does anyone here use LIRC?
[05:01] <ReWT_AxS> just ask questions?
[05:01] <Subtle> bosco, I'm not sure what you asked me. =\
[05:01] <bh> iGotNoTime, no problem thanks anyways
[05:01] <LinuxPoser> decided its about time to get adept with linux
[05:01] <fiveiron> shadou: good luck with that.  you'll most likely need to find a way to mount the partition from a user account because you cannot change the permissions for any thing on the partition and it will mount as r-x------
[05:01] <Dr_Willis> ezu,  the privilages on the 'directory' dont matter.   for samba - you need to set some other options, could try 'smb4k' and see what all options its using to mount the share.
[05:01] <ReWT_AxS> Well, welcome to Linux.
[05:01] <Madpilot> LinuxPoser, try the System menu->Help first
[05:01] <LinuxPoser> heh, used to being in ircs and people yelling to check tut's and rtfm
[05:01] <Healot> no, stick to thy Windows :)
[05:01] <iGotNoTime> bh,  are they removable media by chance? I had issues with my removable media drives
[05:01] <Dr_Willis> ezu,  plus the samba server could be forceing it to be mounted read only.
[05:02] <OmegaAlpha> Kelsey23, do you remember what the client computers had to download in order to access the linux server?
[05:02] <LinuxPoser> was first trying to find a guide to installing the graphic card drivers
[05:02] <eno> hi folks.  how do I install libstdc++ 6.1-1
[05:02] <bh> iGotNoTime, no, it's standard HDs
[05:02] <ardchoille> If I mount a USB flash drive and the box loses power an hour later, will that destroy the files on the flash drive since it wasn't unmounted before the box lost power?
[05:02] <lwizardl> Dr_Willis: like a backend server and then have like 3 terminals pulling the information from it kinda almost like kiosks
[05:02] <eno> I have software (proprietary) that demands I use it
[05:02] <LinuxPoser> saw a guide on digg on how to get xgl on ubuntu and i thought it would be a good first project
[05:02] <bosco> Subtle,  i know you run ubuntu but what verson Breazy badger is the latest verson out
[05:02] <replacement_kill> derick_ray
[05:02] <bosco> Subtle,  do you even know
[05:02] <iGotNoTime> bh, best of luck to you :)
[05:02] <OmegaAlpha> i already d/led and installed vnc4server and vncx11 on here
[05:02] <lwizardl> Dr_Willis: sorry didn't see your question
[05:02] <fiveiron> LinuxPoser: if you get it working let me know... i haven't had much luck
[05:02] <Subtle> Well, I downloaded the DVD version yesterday...
[05:02] <LinuxPoser> anyone know where i can find how to install my graphic drivers?
[05:02] <ezu> Dr_Willis, okay..
[05:02] <Madpilot> LinuxPoser, ATI or Nvidia card?
[05:02] <LinuxPoser> ATI
[05:03] <Kelsey23> OmegaAlpha: Google for RealVNC
[05:03] <Madpilot> !tell LinuxPoser about ati
[05:03] <IdleOne> !ati
[05:03] <ubotu> hmm... ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[05:03] <LinuxPoser> thanks
[05:03] <derick_ray> why does everytime i want to browse the network, it keep asking for password????
[05:03] <babo> Dr_Willis: which file system type is a usb drive ?
[05:03] <Subtle> *must get used to adressing people*  bosco, I just downloaded the DVD image yesterday
[05:03] <LinuxPoser> also the hard drive is giving me some trouble
[05:03] <babo> Dr_Willis: oh wait, block right ?
[05:04] <s_spiff> sa
[05:04] <LinuxPoser> i made a 10GB partition with partition magic, and installed linux to that
[05:04] <LinuxPoser> made a 1.5GB swap file
[05:04] <babo> Does anyone know which filesystem type a usb drive is ?
[05:04] <bosco> Subtle,  then you have the latest verson
[05:04] <LinuxPoser> and its telling me i cant access the hdd
[05:04] <bosco> Subtle, what is your qeustion
[05:04] <Healot> an emulated SCSI... babo
[05:04] <LinuxPoser> i dont have the permissions necisary to view the hard drive
[05:04] <ReWT_AxS> Can anyone help me with my mute button light?
[05:05] <ReWT_AxS> When my mute button stopped working I used the keyboard shortcut to fix it...ever since then when i mute it the light under the button doesnt come on like before....all other lights work, like my radio kill switch for my integrated wireless and my touchpad on off button...
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> babo,  a usb drive can be any file system. whatever you formated it as.,
[05:05] <Healot> oh fs... fdisk /dev/<usb disk device>, babo
[05:05] <LinuxPoser> if someone could pm me a solution id be greatful
[05:05] <Kelsey23> LinuxPoser: Your swap part it soo big....1.5GB..thats insane
[05:05] <LinuxPoser> i gotta head off to bed
[05:05] <Subtle> I'm trying to install Synergy, which downloads for i386 as a rpm file.  "Running" the file straight seems to do nothing, the same with executing it from the run dialog
[05:05] <LinuxPoser> haha
[05:05] <NickGarvey> 1.5g..
[05:05] <NickGarvey> ...
[05:05] <eno> More details:  I am trying to install an old copy of maple and it wants libstdc++ 6.1-1 or else it wont run.  I have looked it up on apt repositoies but have not been able to find it.
[05:05] <ReWT_AxS> GIG?
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> Subtle,  try reading its docs on the homepage yet?
[05:05] <ReWT_AxS> ROFLCOPTER
[05:05] <LinuxPoser> i didnt know how much i needed, decided a lil extra never hurt anyone
[05:05] <Kelsey23> thats what he said
[05:05] <LinuxPoser> LOLOCAUST
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> Subtle,  it takes some configuring.
[05:06] <jasz> Subtle, ... rpm files are not executables... have you tried installing an ubuntu package?
[05:06] <crxyem> so anyone familiar with acpi events ? laptops in particular
[05:06] <OmegaAlpha> i wish someone used it right now so they could just sum it up for me and tell me how easy it is to use. from what i know all i have to do is run the server and then install the vnc software on the windows box
[05:06] <Kelsey23> Erm, you are wasting space LinuxPoser
[05:06] <jasz> Subtle, ... do you know what a .deb is?
[05:06] <AshyIsMe> is there a cpu temperature monitor that comes with ubuntu?
[05:06] <Subtle> Well, it opens the archive manager
[05:06] <Subtle> It just doesn't seem to /do/ antyhing
[05:06] <AshyIsMe> somtehnig that sits in the panel with a cpu temp would be nice
[05:06] <LinuxPoser> well im off, but if someone would like to pm me how to get the rights to view my hard drive, itd be nice
[05:06] <ReWT_AxS> AshyIsMe, err....try the command
[05:06] <Dr_Willis> I thought i found synegry in  the repos
[05:06] <Jeffrae> Omega VNC is really easy out of the Box on Ubuntu
[05:06] <jasz> Subtle, ... an rpm is basically a zip file with the package binaries and a script for the system to install it...
[05:06] <crxyem> LinuxPoser, check out superkaramba
[05:07] <NickGarvey> can you boot from a hd set to slave? theres a hard drive in a computer that I want to keep as data and put a different one with an OS in there, but I can't reach the jumper on the one HD, I would have to take everything apart
[05:07] <Jeffrae> Just install the client on Windows
[05:07] <Healot> crxyem, to inspect ACPI event try to install acpid, and dmesg regularly, if you think something happening...
[05:07] <AshyIsMe> ReWT_AxS: the command?
[05:07] <Jeffrae> IT is really small
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> Subtle,  you must edit its configs and set it up for your machines.. and of course ya need to run the Syngery client on the other machines.
[05:07] <crxyem> lots of little apps you can use
[05:07] <jasz> Subtle, .. plus.. rpm packages are made for redhat ( & co.) .. not for ubuntu..
[05:07] <AshyIsMe> i've got the cpu frequency monitor in the panel
[05:07] <Madpilot> Subtle, Synergy seems to be in Ubuntu's repos - do you have the Universe repo enabled?
[05:07] <Madpilot> !info synergy
[05:07] <ubotu> synergy: (Share mouse and keyboard over the network), section universe/net, is optional. Version: 1.2.2-1build1 (breezy), Packaged size: 493 kB, Installed size: 1472 kB
[05:07] <AshyIsMe> but cpu temperature would be nice
[05:07] <NickGarvey> !slave
[05:07] <Jeffrae> I wish I could run ubuntu on my IBM i5
[05:07] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[05:07] <Davey`> synergy is AWESOME :D
[05:07] <OmegaAlpha> Jeffrae, from what i heard and read it seems it.. but of course with me being somewhat new to linux it seems more difficult especially with the different how tos on the ubuntu forums
[05:07] <Madpilot> !tell AshyIsMe about sensors
[05:07] <AshyIsMe> and there doesnt seem t obe a gkrellm ubuntu package
[05:07] <Ads_> is there a way i can set the winkey on my laptop to perform a function in ubuntu?
[05:07] <Shadowline> AshyIsMe: you'll need lm-sensors and gkrellm. lm-sensors will take some config file editing to install. google lm-sensors webpage
[05:07] <Subtle> Dr_Willis, yes I'm aware of that.  I had it running on this box when it was W2k
[05:07] <ReWT_AxS> AshyIsMe, acpi -t
[05:07] <crxyem> Healot:: well, it's not so much if an even is happening, I loose my samba shares after the system has gone to standby
[05:08] <ReWT_AxS> will tell you your temp.
[05:08] <Subtle> jasz, I figured as much already.  but my archive manager seems to do nothing with it
[05:08] <AshyIsMe> ReWT_AxS: thanks
[05:08] <ReWT_AxS> yep
[05:08] <ReWT_AxS> Sorry for the delay lol
[05:08] <cubicool> Is anyone having a messed up cursor in X using dapper?
[05:08] <jasz> Subtle, ... ok... i assume there's a "applications" menu on the top left of your screen.. right?
[05:08] <ReWT_AxS> cubicool, you 64 bit?
[05:08] <Subtle> Madpilot, Not as far as I know.  This is kinda my first step here so I can get mouse =P  If you'd rather refer me to a nooblet guide, that's fine
[05:08] <Subtle> Ayep
[05:09] <cubicool> ReWT_AxS: no,
[05:09] <Madpilot> !tell Subtle about repos
[05:09] <ReWT_AxS> cubicool, nvm
[05:09] <OmegaAlpha> Jeffrae, i read a tutorial where the guy gives a how to on vnc in general but then someone asked him if they could leave th session open on the linux box and then go somewhere else and access the same session. do you know anything about that?
[05:09] <Madpilot> !tell Subtle about synaptic
[05:09] <trigo> how is ubuntu in the 64 bit world?
[05:09] <ReWT_AxS> It's nice.
[05:09] <ReWT_AxS> Few problems here and there but nothing major
[05:09] <Madpilot> Subtle, the URLs the bot just sent you should get you started
[05:10] <Subtle> Mkay, that'll do.  Thanks a bunch =)
[05:10] <trigo> you have to use 32 bit mplayer and such correct?
[05:10] <ReWT_AxS> nope
[05:10] <percent20> does someone have a xorg.conf file I can get i accidentally earsed mine trying to back it up
[05:10] <ReWT_AxS> I have a 64 bit mplayer
[05:10] <Suture> What file logs my network info like connect attempts and things like that?
[05:10] <eno> whatever
[05:10] <ReWT_AxS> Only thing im running 32 bit si firefox 1.5 bc i couldnt get java working in 64 bit
[05:11] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: Yes you can indeed do that.  Very useful.
[05:11] <ReWT_AxS> percent, tyoe ctrl+z
[05:11] <ReWT_AxS> ?
[05:11] <trigo> you have 64 bit codecs for media?
[05:11] <crxyem> so any ideas why I loose samba shares after going t standby
[05:11] <ReWT_AxS> yea
[05:11] <trigo> cool
[05:11] <percent20> heh ctrl+z doens't work in CLI
[05:11] <trigo> is it easy to install 32 bit things when needed?
[05:11] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, but from what i learned you cant do that with the default vnc software... that there is more to be done.. i wish ubuntu forums were running i could send you the thread to read.. it confused me a lil
[05:11] <ReWT_AxS> err took me like 20 mins to get 32 bit firefox running smoothly
[05:11] <starscalling> !skype
[05:11] <ubotu> rumour has it, skype is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeHowto/ Breezy deb: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages/
[05:12] <foampeace> how can i download debs without apt
[05:12] <trigo> ok, cool just wanted to make sure it wasnt anything crazy
[05:12] <foampeace> i want to use a download manager to download debs
[05:12] <babo> Healot: fdisk says its FAT16, but when I try to mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /mnt/test ... I get  ... wrong fs type bad option bad superblock
[05:12] <babo> Dr_Willis:
[05:13] <ReWT_AxS> gentoo is upposed to be flawless in 64 bit, so i heard
[05:13] <Dr_Willis> babo, ?
[05:13] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: correct, you can't do it with vino-server which is what you configure with System -> Prefs -> Remote Desktop.  However the other vnc packages will do it.  I use vncserver, others are tightvncserver and vnc4server
[05:13] <Dr_Willis> fat16 is not vfat, its fat
[05:13] <percent20> can someone paste an xorg.conf file on pastebin for me?
[05:13] <babo> Dr_Willis: SOrry I meant to address the above comment to you
[05:13] <percent20> i need one that Ubuntu generates
[05:13] <ReWT_AxS> percent20, everyone's is different?
[05:13] <babo> Dr_Willis: fdisk says its FAT16, but when I try to mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /mnt/test ... I get  ... wrong fs type bad option bad superblock
[05:13] <ReWT_AxS> just reconfigure xorg?
[05:13] <percent20> ReWT_AxS: i know i have been trying
[05:13] <Dr_Willis> babo,  fat16 is not vfat, its fat
[05:14] <trigo> ive heard gentoo was nice also but this is my girl friends comp and i would like to make it not to difficult for her
[05:14] <percent20> I can usually configure them myself but I am missing something somwhere and I don't know what
[05:14] <shadou> I was in here a minute ago about asking how to make Users able to read my NTFS partitions, someone said something about a umask= option but I missed the number
[05:14] <babo> Dr_Willis: thank you so much ... :-)
[05:14] <Dr_Willis> babo,  may want to google for a 'how to mount drives linux" tutorial or 4
[05:14] <ming> Shutgun: are you there ?
[05:15] <babo> Dr_Willis: unknow filesystem type fat  ... ?
[05:15] <ming> I could not get software package from 'universe' respository at work. The PC need to have http proxy in order to access internet. How to fix this ?

[05:15] <widow> can someone in here help me out installing ubuntu, im getting a pretty annoying error
[05:15] <widow> i have it on my other pc here
[05:15] <percent20> widow: what is the error?
[05:16] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: err, correction, you can resume with the Remote Desktop, it's just that you have to log into the Desktop on the machine first.  The other vnc packages allow you to start one or more vncservers and then connect to them (and disconnect/resume)
[05:16] <widow> when it tries to load components from the cd during installation it chokes and says "failed to load installer components from CD"
[05:16] <raindog> in root, what command will run a program?  In this instance I'm trying to install a driver for my modem.  Can anyone help me out?
[05:16] <percent20> have you used the cd before?
[05:16] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, ok i use vnc4server.. well thats what the how-to told to install... and then to install VNC along with it, but i guess someone already know about all this and asked how to access an opened session already i guess instead of the default. which i guess was opening a new session.  so then the person (tichondria) seems famous. said to install VNCx11 or x11VNC
[05:16] <widow> yeah the cd is fine
[05:16] <widow> even the live CD wont run
[05:16] <kettles> i need help
[05:17] <percent20> hmm might be something wrong with the hardware before.  I have never heard of that problem
[05:17] <WoC> what's the network config tool for ubuntu?
[05:17] <percent20> kettles: post a question
[05:17] <kettles> i want to install ubuntu but the only os i have is ubuntu live
[05:17] <Ads_> anyone know of the best wireless network utility to allow me to switch profiles since i'm always on the move during the day?
[05:17] <widow> im using a sony dvd-rw drive
[05:17] <kettles> and i only have one cd drive, soi cant
[05:17] <kettles> make a install cd
[05:17] <widow> i figured it should be supported
[05:17] <percent20> kettles: when you get up to where you hit enter to boot try typing install and hit enter.  Not garunteeing anything though
[05:18] <kettles> nopoe
[05:18] <kettles> tryed
[05:18] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, yes i prefer the latter i guess instead of the remote desktop. I rather simplicity but freedom is nicer.
[05:18] <percent20> kettles: k
[05:18] <widow> would you reccoment swapping in another CD drive?
[05:18] <OmegaAlpha> bimber so if i install vnc4server on my linux box.. all i got to do is install VNC on whatever windows box im at to connect to mine?
[05:18] <ReWT_AxS> When my mute button stopped working I used the keyboard shortcut to fix it...ever since then when i mute it the light under the button doesnt come on like before....all other lights work, like my radio kill switch for my integrated wireless and my touchpad on off button...How do I get my light back :( Can anyone help?
[05:19] <kettles> you can do that with knoppix,but i tryed already with this
[05:19] <shadou> bash: cd: /media/sdd1/: Permission denied - I'm trying to go into a NTFS partition, anyone know which umask= flags I should give it in the fstab
[05:19] <babo> I'm trying to mount an FAT16 filesystem to my computer but when I type mount -t fat /dev/sdb /mnt/test ... it tells me that fat is an unknown filesystem .. can anyone help ?
[05:19] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: yes, just get the windows vnc client.  My method is to ssh into the ubuntu box first and start the vncserver.  Then use my vnc client to connect to that server.  I can disconnect the client and resume to the same session later.

[05:20] <pppoe_dude> hi. how can i enaable remote desktop sharing from the command line (vino server?)
[05:20] <percent20> widow: would be a good place to start
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> or just try -t auto
[05:20] <shadou> ty Dr_Willis
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> :P
[05:20] <widow> alright
[05:20] <percent20> widow: if not I would suggest trying another cd.
[05:20] <widow> i have 3 cd

[05:21] <ReWT_AxS> omg make it stop
[05:21] <ReWT_AxS> whew
[05:21] <Madpilot> damn, devoice didn't work...
[05:21] <babo> WoC: thanks ... but why did sdb1 work and not sdb, as the device was referred to in dmesg
[05:21] <percent20> widow: ok, then might be a hardware problem
[05:21] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, very nice.. so thats what everyone was talking about on the threads about using ssh and that its more secure.. when you refer to the windows vnc client would that be the one that www.realvnc.com offers in the downloads as the default VNC software?
[05:21] <widow> it must be
[05:21] <kettles> im lost, i dont know that much about linux,and it would take forever to do this..
[05:21] <_jason> Madpilot: only works if channel is +m I think
[05:21] <Madpilot> _mick_, next time, use pastebin
[05:21] <_mick_> k
[05:21] <widow> it has support for SATA im assuming
[05:21] <ReWT_AxS> :-P
[05:22] <Madpilot> !tell _mick_ about pastebin
[05:22] <ReWT_AxS> Can now one here help about my button problem?
[05:22] <widow> if it didnt it shouldnt boot at all
[05:22] <ReWT_AxS> *noe
[05:22] <_mick_> i know, sorry

[05:22] <ozzloy> how do i change the gdm theme?
[05:22] <WoC> babo sdb is the entire disk, sdb1 is the partition
[05:22] <_mick_> but can i get an answer?
[05:22] <kettles> ill try though thankyou
[05:22] <Dr_Willis> ozzloy,  i always used that gdm-configuration tool thats in the menus
[05:22] <percent20> kettles: i would suggest ordering an install cd if you can and that doesn't work
[05:22] <kettles> ya
[05:22] <kettles> that is my next idea
[05:23] <kettles> well ill give this a shot
[05:23] <kettles> bye!
[05:23] <reggaemanu> ozzloy, sudo gdmsetup
[05:23] <percent20> kettles: k, good luck let me know if it works
[05:23] <pppoe_dude> any ideas on how to enable vino for a specific display from a terminal? sorta like doing 'vino-preferences' on say display 1 but on the terminal
[05:23] <percent20> Can someone help me.  I need a copy of an ubuntu xorg.conf file.  Just for an example. I goofed and accidently deleted min tyring to back it up lol
[05:23] <rybuntu> how do i change the ubuntu logo next in the applications menu?
[05:23] <Dr_Willis> i always found that running a seperate vncserver, seemed MUCH better then running vino on a allready running X display.
[05:24] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, so you tunnel with ssh to your computer.. turn o nthe vncserver remotely since you dont want it on at all times then connect. What a handy tool.
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> percent20,  try "X --configure"  for a sample X config.
[05:24] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: 1. Yes to the realvnc windows client.  2. No actually it's not the full ssh thing.  I'm only using a ssh session to start the server.  They would have been talking about tunnelling vnc via ssh (which i don't worry about on this firewalled LAN).
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> percent20,  or was it 'X -configure"
[05:24] <reggaemanu> percent20, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:24] <percent20> Dr_Willis: tried it craps out
[05:24] <Madpilot> rybuntu, wiki.ubuntu.com/QuickTips
[05:24] <pppoe_dude> Dr_Willis, yes but i need remote assistance
[05:24] <_mick_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10271
[05:24] <pppoe_dude> (to gove remote asst.
[05:24] <percent20> reggaemanu: k i'll give that a shot
[05:24] <pppoe_dude> *give
[05:24] <rybuntu> maddler: thanks
[05:24] <rybuntu> Madpilot: thanks
[05:25] <Madpilot> np
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> pppoe_dude,  :P  lets just say ive had VERY poor results with vino. it was barely even useable.
[05:25] <ozzloy> thanks Dr_Willis and reggaemanu
[05:25] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, oh well whats the difference in using a ssh session to start the server and using the ssh for tunneling? im not worried about security right now with firewalls. im wreckless when i first try out stuff.
[05:26] <AngryElf> "sudo chmod 777 blah" is giving me permission denied on a smb-mounted directory
[05:26] <vars> how do i access my computer from another computer
[05:26] <AngryElf> vars, ssh
[05:26] <Dr_Willis> vars,  define 'access'
[05:27] <slipk> whats the package name to install xorg?
[05:27] <vars> ala gotomypc.com
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> never heard of it vars.
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> :)
[05:27] <_mick_> great, i use pastebin like you want, and still get no response
[05:27] <vars> slipk, do an apt-cache search xorg |less
[05:27] <vars> i think it is xorg-xserver
[05:27] <vars> just a sec
[05:28] <percent20> heh this is pissing me of to the point I am going to reinstall ubuntu been wanting to anyway
[05:28] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, please dont mnind me if there is alot of explaining to do.. you dont need to. ive been reading alot on these sites and some reading were very lengthy so i assume it can get complicated. thats why im in here asking. the tutorials arent the greatest for me. especially when i try to vnc into my own box to see if it works.. it acts oddly
[05:28] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: I've not ever done the ssh tunnelling thing so don't know it.  The ssh session is like telnet (if you know that) - connecting to the server by command line.  In this case just to start the vncserver, then I can quit the ssh session and use VNC.
[05:28] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: s'fine :)
[05:28] <cjmguitar> hello
[05:28] <aconbere> So I ran into some troubles today with a flakey bios/mb, and I've had to change what device slot my primary harddrive is on.  This is fine and I can update the necessary files (menu.list and a grub config and fstab)
[05:28] <cjmguitar> can someone help me with my ubuntu install?
[05:28] <aconbere> however when I updated my kernel today
[05:28] <aconbere> it overwrote the stuff in the grub config
[05:28] <aconbere> with the device I started with
[05:28] <sagarp> does anyone happen to know the font this guy is using: http://www.lynucs.org/index.php?screen_type=1&screen_id=117337962144174a2283dbd&m=screen
[05:29] <aconbere> is there a place that default info is kept?
[05:29] <_jason> cjmguitar: best to just ask your question
[05:29] <cjmguitar> ok

[05:29] <aconbere> any, you
[05:29] <_jason> sagarp: no but what is that program at the top right?
[05:30] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, thanks for your time.. im new to shh-in, i did try to ssh to my own computer by typing 'ssh my ip' but the connection was refused
[05:30] <sagarp> _jason that's the deskbar-applet i believe
[05:31] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: ubuntu doesn't install the ssh server by default - install the 'ssh' package
[05:31] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: and np :)
[05:31] <V4Vendetta> sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[05:31] <V4Vendetta> actually.
[05:31] <cjmguitar> i have 4 hard drives one i put 4 partitions on, 2 were linux format one was swap and one was ntfs, I installed ubuntu no problem, then i installed GAG for a multiple boot system. whenever I tell GAG to boot to Ubuntu it just goes to a black screen usually saying no such partition
[05:31] <cjmguitar> any help?
[05:31] <V4Vendetta> cjmguitar, GAG ?
[05:31] <vars> _mick_,   i've never done an wireless card    i would try to get with Seveas or any admin (green dot guys) later
[05:31] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, connecting to my own computer just to se eif it works.. since i dont know anyone at the moment to connect to.  in the how-to it said type 'vncviewer localhost:1' to be able to log into my won computer but i wasnt able to...

[05:33] <ClayG> anyone know where the shipit.launchpad.com ubuntu disks ship from?
[05:33] <_jason> percent20: in preferences, select 'xv' as the video output.  Are you using the gui with mplayer?
[05:33] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: ah, you need to start the vncserver - use the command 'vnc4server' on your machine
[05:33] <aconbere> sooo... places that store the default drive device paths in ubuntu... anyone have any ideas?
[05:34] <_jason> sagarp: thanks
[05:34] <hardkaare> hi there, does anyone know how to get rewrite for apache2 working under ubuntu?
[05:34] <babo> Why isn't the coroners toolkit in the repositories ?
[05:34] <percent20> _jason:yes
[05:34] <cjmguitar> i tried dual boot with many different programs, and none seem to work. I installed Ubuntu countless amounts of times and cant get it to boot
[05:35] <cjmguitar> it installs and removes the cd, and when it reboots i havnt figured out thow to access it
[05:35] <beatri1> hello. am having trouble with customization. can anybody help me?
[05:35] <_jason> percent20: ok so you can just right click and go to preferences.  Then for video output, choose 'xv'
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> cjmguitar,  you are saying grub menu never installs eh?
[05:35] <cjmguitar> yes it does
[05:35] <percent20> _jason: ok thankyou
[05:35] <cjmguitar> i installed once in the mbr and it did nothing
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> cjmguitar,  clarify the issue.. you DO or do NOT get a grub menu?
[05:36] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, yeah i got that far.. but when i enter the command it askes me for a password to log into the vnc.. but then im supposed to be able to login into i guess X oranother console where i type my linux name and psswd but i dont get that.. i just get this shitty resolution screen that says vnc: x11 in the top bar
[05:36] <percent20> Does anyone know how i can disable bluetooth?  I don't even use it so no point in haveing the module running
[05:36] <cjmguitar> ok it says that it installed, but when i reboot it goes to the htldr not grub
[05:36] <jodanlime> in beep media player, how do I enable flac support?
[05:37] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, but if i type vncviewer localhost:0 i get a different outome which is my desktop but mirrored..
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> OmegaAlpha,  configure your vnc server to your Liking.
[05:37] <cjmguitar> so i tried to install it on the partition which held ubuntu and use a dual boot program to set it up and it still wont work
[05:37] <_jason> percent20: just remove the bluetooth packages (taht's what I did)
[05:38] <jadaz87> weedar: i got ndiswrapper install and it says that the driver is install and the device is present
[05:38] <cjmguitar> so anything...?
[05:38] <percent20> _jason: hmm, ok i'll try that again.
[05:38] <jadaz87> weedar: and i configured the wlan0 with both the network configuration card and iwconfig
[05:38] <xBeatrix> Remaster help, anyone?
[05:38] <_jason> percent20: I think most of them were bluez*
[05:39] <OmegaAlpha> Dr_Willis, dont know how to do that.. i did whatever the Tichondrias how-to said to do.. but i dont think it had any configuring.. except for password set up
[05:39] <EnsignRedshirt> !anyone
[05:39] <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>
[05:39] <xBeatrix> :-$ remaster help?
[05:39] <jadaz87> weedar: but i could not even go to yahoo.com or get on Xirc
[05:39] <cjmguitar> is there anywhere else i can get help other than here?
[05:39] <ming> I could not get software package from 'universe' respository at work. The PC need to have http proxy in order to access internet. How to fix this ?
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> OmegaAlpha,  may be worth while to read a few of the vncserver docs/guides out there.. and a read of the 'vncserver' script - theres dozens of options you can set.
[05:39] <jadaz87> nickserv register
[05:40] <hardkaare> can anyone tell me how to activate rewrite in apache2?
[05:40] <babo> Anyone ever tried to recover deleted ext3 files ?
[05:40] <OmegaAlpha> i basically want to keep it simple right now.. where i can just mess around with it.. figure out how everything works and then configure it to the way i want it.
[05:41] <jodanlime> in beep media player, how do I enable flac support?
[05:41] <robinphilippines> helo pls
[05:41] <crxyem> !seen me2win

[05:43] <Grark> anyone ever install ccxstream?
[05:43] <xBeatrix> breezy remaster help:(
[05:43] <bimberi> OmegaAlpha: yes, :0 is vino-server (which is working) and :1 is vnc4server (which isn't it would seem).  I'm not sure what's wrong sorry.  When I start the server mine says 'Starting applications specified in /etc/X11/Xsession'.  Check what yours said.
[05:44] <jadaz87> anyone know how to connect to a wireless network that is not broadcasting a ssid with ndiswrapper?
[05:44] <Grark> WOW on linux?
[05:44] <EnsignRedshirt> xBeatrix: I'm sure I can't help you, but you might have better luck if you ask a specific question.
[05:44] <The> Of course Grark
[05:44] <shadou> Grark, cedega or wine
[05:45] <shadou> cedega runs it with DX9, wine w/ ogl.
[05:45] <Grark> wonder if it would run city of heroes
[05:45] <shadou> it does.
[05:45] <robinphilippines> how can write to cdrw to become bootdisk i finish download live cd
[05:45] <cjmguitar> well if no one here can help plz tell me where i can get help :-(
[05:45] <shadou> it runs battlefield 2 ;[
[05:45] <shadou> well worth the subscription fee, imho.
[05:45] <V4Vendetta> robinphilippines, burn the .iso file
[05:45] <_jason> cjmguitar: check your private messages from ubotu
[05:45] <narg> robinphilippines: burn it as an image on the cd.
[05:45] <_mick_> vars: I think I got my wirelessworking... Just for reference, updating and rebuilding ndiswrapper seems to have fixed it
[05:45] <V4Vendetta> yea, burn the .iso ! :-D
[05:45] <robinphilippines> what software i want to to use
[05:46] <V4Vendetta> robinphilippines, you on windows?
[05:46] <The> I am running with wine but it is running REALLY choppy. I think it may be becasue I may be using a the generic vid driver for my NVidia GeForce FX 5200

[05:47] <Grark> V4Vendetta, I got everything working from yesterday!
[05:47] <silvaran> haha
[05:47] <Grark> took two complete reinstalls.
[05:47] <V4Vendetta> Grark, what were we working on, im pretty stoned
[05:47] <Xaero_Vincent> Using the latest drivers provided by the vendor is the best option i think
[05:47] <Grark> (of hte apps)
[05:47] <Grark> Vmware
[05:47] <Grark> azureus
[05:47] <V4Vendetta> AHh okay, that's good
[05:47] <V4Vendetta> yea azureus is tricky some times
[05:47] <V4Vendetta> i finally got mine how i want it
[05:47] <jadaz87> anyone know how to connect to a wireless network that is not broadcasting a ssid with ndiswrapper?
[05:48] <cjmguitar> the dualboot help didnt help
[05:48] <narg> The: nvidia drivers work on my 5200 just fine, no reason not to use them. I just got 50k fps in glxgears with em :P
[05:48] <ming> any email alias that I can ask Ubuntu questions ?
[05:48] <cjmguitar> the boot options never come up
[05:48] <htinn> how do you even find a wireless network without a ssid?
[05:48] <Xaero_Vincent> err narg... what?
[05:48] <smellican> is there a wiki page on upgrading to dapper?
[05:48] <_jason> ming: what do you mean?
[05:48] <Xaero_Vincent> whats ur system specs?
[05:48] <_jason> !upgrade
[05:48] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade.  Upgrading to dapper (remember it may break). Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html.
[05:48] <narg> ming, just /msg it, and then type stuff. Its a bot.
[05:48] <silvaran> htinn: You can set up a wireless router with an ssid, but tell it not to broadcast it.
[05:48] <narg> Xaero_Vincent: Its ok xgl. I have no idea either :p
[05:48] <jadaz87> htinn: i already have the ssid name
[05:48] <cjmguitar> it keeps booting to the ntldr not grub, and the ntldr doesnt recognize ubuntu
[05:48] <OmegaAlpha> bimberi, thanks for your help.. i have a better understanding now. I have to read some more docs on the net. once i figure this out this will slow down the phone calls from the mother because she doesnt know hwo to operate firefox lol
[05:48] <narg> Xaero_Vincent: *on xgl
[05:49] <ming> I tried to get answers but could not get it from here.
[05:49] <silvaran> jadaz87: I usually just use network tools and manully put in the ssid (system->administration->networking or whatever)
[05:49] <ming> I could not get software package from 'universe' respository at work. The PC need to have http proxy in order to access internet. How to fix this ?
[05:49] <shadou> Right I'm back, could someone explain to me with what application can I connect to vino-server
[05:49] <_jason> ubotu: tell ming about support
[05:49] <shadou> have tried TightVNC, and it didn't work.
[05:49] <_jason> ming: actually, there is a wiki page for that, let me see if I can find it
[05:49] <ming> great.
[05:49] <jadaz87> silvaran: i tried that i and cannot connect through xirc or go to like yahoo.com in a internet browser
[05:50] <pppoe_dude> anybody having major memory leak problems with firefox and mozilla?
[05:50] <pppoe_dude> on breezy?
[05:50] <Xaero_Vincent> I havent tried XGL. probably wouldnt be easy either on Breezy... but ur saying that its slows things down alot?
[05:50] <cjmguitar> any help yet?
[05:50] <bimberi> shadou: a vnc client - http://www.realvnc.com/
[05:50] <hardkaare> can anyone tell me how to get rewrite working with apache2 in ubuntu
[05:50] <jadaz87> htinn: i have also tried that
[05:50] <perry753> wasaaaapppppppp
[05:50] <shadou> bimberi, any idea how I can check if vino-server is actually running?
[05:50] <shadou> nmap myself? ;] 
[05:51] <perry753> lmao -out
[05:51] <pppoe_dude> shadou, try ps -ef |grep vino
[05:51] <shadou> thanks
[05:51] <_jason> ming: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptGetHowto has some instructions, but there was a ``nicer'' way I saw once.  See if this works though
[05:51] <htinn> cjmguitar, you can use "dd" to fix that but it is VERY DANGEROUS
[05:51] <FunnyHat_Away> Xaero_Vincent, XGL is not supported at all on breezy, btw.
[05:51] <narg> Xaero_Vincent: Its more or less impossible without dapper. And it speeds everything up; I got went from 500ish fps to 50000ish :p
[05:51] <silvaran> shadou: netstat -ltp
[05:51] <ming> thanks. Jason. I'm going to find it.
[05:51] <xBeatrix> remastering, anyone?
[05:51] <silvaran> shadou: if you need to confirm the port an exactly what it's listening on.
[05:51] <pppoe_dude> shadou, or try netstat -tapn and see if vino is hooked on any prots
[05:51] <thoams`> umm i forgot to setup my swap space drive i think ithas something to do with mem... but i was tyring to run kororaa live xgl demo cd. it wont load all the way way anyone know why? i think iot could be cuz of my swap space...
[05:51] <shadou> hrmm, vino isn't hooked on any of them
[05:51] <Xaero_Vincent> heh ok narg
[05:52] <bimberi> shadou: yep, or 'sudo netstat -plunt' (look for port 5900)
[05:52] <steven_> I just recently upgraded to Dapper Drake, can anyone help me with the native broadcom installation
[05:52] <shadou> anyone have any experience at setting it up for remote (tcp/ip) acess?
[05:52] <_jason> ming: that method will probably work, if not just google for apt through proxy.  There is some config file that you can set it up the proxy in
[05:52] <shadou> is there a .conf somewhere?
[05:52] <thoams`> u can upgrade to dapper right now in its current state?
[05:52] <pppoe_dude> shadou, are  you trying to do remote assistance?
[05:52] <thoams`> without driver screwups? from 5.10
[05:52] <cjmguitar> ok i shall explain it again. I ran the ubuntu cd, set my partitions installed ubuntu, installed the grub boot loader to the ubuntu partition (the MBR one didnt do anything). Ran a program called GAG and it tried booting UBUNTU and it didnt work, every thing i have found on the net about dualboot has not worked for me, help plz.
[05:52] <pppoe_dude> shadou, or just remote access?
[05:52] <shadou> pppoe_dude, remote access
[05:52] <steven_> eth1      IEEE 802.11b/g  ESSID:""  Nickname:"Broadcom 4318"
[05:53] <shadou> pppoe_dude, so I can raccess my server from home, etc.
[05:53] <silvaran> thoams`: It's possible, but not without driver screwups, sorry (my own experience)
[05:53] <pppoe_dude> shadou, probably better off with vnc
[05:53] <thoams`> ahh dang
[05:53] <shadou> pppoe_dude, 'vnc'?
[05:53] <narg> steven_: #ubuntu+1
[05:53] <cjmguitar> i have ubuntu installed it just wont boot
[05:53] <thoams`> soi the best way to upgrade is tojust do a clean install huh formatting and all
[05:53] <cjmguitar> my pc will only boot XP
[05:53] <htinn> cjmguitar, are you using more than one hard drive?
[05:53] <shadou> ah, pppoe_dude, vncserver
[05:53] <cjmguitar> yes
[05:53] <cjmguitar> i have 4
[05:53] <pppoe_dude> shadou, yes
[05:53] <htinn> ok
[05:53] <pppoe_dude> shadou, every tried it?
[05:54] <cjmguitar> i installed ubuntu on my slave ide
[05:54] <silvaran> thoams`: you can change your sources.list and apt-get update/apt-get dist-upgrade, but check #ubuntu+1 for caveats to determine if you really want to do it.
[05:54] <thoams`> i want to test this livecd out so i can see how xgl is... but it wont load all the way *cuz of swap space?*
[05:54] <shadou> pppoe_dude, no, is it easy to configure?
[05:54] <cjmguitar> xp is on my master scsi
[05:54] <pppoe_dude> shadou, very
[05:54] <silvaran> thoams`: how much ram?
[05:54] <shadou> pppoe_dude, a config file somewhere, or gui?
[05:54] <thoams`> 1Gb
[05:54] <jadaz87> wehat is dapper drake?
[05:54] <htinn> it could be that grub is being installed on the wrong drive, cjmguitar
[05:54] <thoams`> pc3500
[05:54] <pppoe_dude> shadou, make sure you have it installed
[05:54] <silvaran> thoams`: That should be more than enough...
[05:54] <qs> yo, i set up sharing so i can access my Linuxbox folders from my Windows computer - i can see it the network places but its asking for a username andpassword - i dont know what to put
[05:54] <shadou> pppoe_dude, I just installed it.
[05:54] <thoams`> isnt swap space like required tho?
[05:54] <shadou> pppoe_dude, thanks, appears to work.
[05:54] <silvaran> thoams`: Nope
[05:54] <thoams`> for a procedure like using a livecd?
[05:54] <silvaran> thoams`: But if you don't have it, and you run out of ram, you're screwed :)
[05:54] <thoams`> to cache the data on for that lil bit of time
[05:54] <pppoe_dude> shadou, then, run "vncserver -geometry 800x600 -depth 16"
[05:54] <cjmguitar> i tried installing it on my MBR or the first hard drives first partition and it did nothing, it still booted to the NTLDR
[05:55] <bimberi> !tell jadaz87 about dapper
[05:55] <pppoe_dude> shadou, then it will tell you which display it will run on
[05:55] <thoams`> im using 220mb of 1gb now
[05:55] <bh> How do I play DVDs on amd64 with mplayer ? i just installed the package, but it's having some problems.
[05:55] <xBeatrix> remaster help!
[05:55] <bh> Is there's a FAQ about this ? I couldn't finding very much Googling for it.
[05:55] <pppoe_dude> shadou, all you'll have to type at remote machine is "vncviewer <IPADDRESS>:<DISPLAYNUMBER>
[05:55] <silvaran> cjmguitar: maybe it used the wrong MBR... it needs to go on the MBR on the master disk.
[05:55] <cjmguitar> so i installed it to the UBUNTU partition and ran a boot loader program called GAG that lets you boot from up to 9 os's
[05:55] <mrnicksgirl> hi!  instaaling on new sager laptop, go error   "Starting hotplug subsystem..."
[05:55] <shadou> pppoe_dude, remote machine is 'doze.
[05:55] <steven_> and the forums are down :(
[05:55] <cjmguitar> it didnt help, i installed it there
[05:56] <pppoe_dude> shadou, you can download a windows vnc viewer somewhere i believe
[05:56] <pppoe_dude> shadou, try googling it
[05:56] <LeeJunFan> no webmin in dapper any more?
[05:56] <shadou> pppoe_dude, yes, I've got one, thanks for your help. It's working perfectly :)
[05:56] <cjmguitar> i read many ways to DUAL Boot and none have worked
[05:56] <pppoe_dude> shadou, np
[05:56] <silvaran> LeeJunFan: Dunno, ask #ubuntu+1
[05:56] <cjmguitar> does anyone here have a DualBoot pc?
[05:56] <shadou> Wouldn't it be cool if I could XGL over VNC? I'll have to work on that.
[05:57] <htinn> cjmguitar, you may have to find a boot menu in your BIOS screen
[05:57] <htinn> that's how I dual boot
[05:57] <haasteem> cjmguitar, i do
[05:57] <cjmguitar> ok so go to my BIOS and set the boot sequence? or a specific boot menu?
[05:57] <steven_> Anyone know how to install native broadcom in dapper?
[05:58] <tristanmike> !dapper
[05:58] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[05:58] <htinn> i can boot to whatever drive I want from a special "boot" menu
[05:58] <steven_> I am trist
[05:58] <cjmguitar> ok ill try it
[05:58] <shadou> htinn, you need to put a boot record on that drive. (grub)
[05:58] <steven_> bot channels, but sometimes people know in here
[05:58] <pbransford> need some help with a DVD-R disk
[05:58] <steven_> both
[05:58] <htinn> i do
[05:58] <pbransford> used to work fine, been stored in a cool dark place since
[05:58] <haasteem> htinn, i have the same, i use grub
[05:58] <htinn> actually, i have grub on all my drives
[05:58] <pbransford> only ~ 2 months. now it gives me buffer issues when I try to access the files on it
[05:59] <htinn> because they all have some Linux on them :)
[05:59] <pbransford> no visible damage on the disk
[05:59] <haasteem> htinn, although i haven't booted up into windows for a while now...
[05:59] <silvaran> pbransford: On all dvd drives?
[05:59] <pbransford> silvaran this is my one and only DVD-R (someone else burned it)
[05:59] <haasteem> vmware rules big timr
[05:59] <pbransford> i have a CDRW/DVDROM combo drive
[05:59] <silvaran> pbransford: If you get the same errors on multiple dvd drives, it's probably the disc, otherwise, it _could_ be the drive.
[05:59] <ecen> hello, i have this little problem. in nautilus (as root) i accidentally moved one of the main directories in the file system and it landed in another directory. the thing is that i didnt even see which directory is missing. so my question is: is there a way to make undo in nautilus? so the last action is restored? or can anyone give me the directory structure of the file system so i can tell which directory is missing
[06:00] <silvaran> ecen: wow.... nautilus as root is a baad idea... not that that helps you...
[06:00] <shadou> thanks again, pppoe_dude. lifesaver :)
[06:01] <_jason> ecen: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10272
[06:01] <pbransford> silvaran, well it used to work fine on this drive (have no other drives to test with) a few months ago. tried cleaning lense, no help (although some other CDs work now)
[06:01] <pbransford> assuming its just my drive acting up, can you think of anything that might help?
[06:02] <silvaran> pbransford: It's possible the drive's failing, but really, without multiple drives and/or multiple discs (of the same brand) it can't be diagnosed remotely.
[06:02] <ITSa341> pbransford  the laser on most optical drives can be adjusted with potentiometers to increase the voltage and improve the read/write on a worn drive
[06:02] <ecen> where can i find how is the structure of the file system? so i can compare which directory is missing. the directory was not deleted, just moved so if i at least know which one is i can search for it.
[06:02] <silvaran> ITSa341: Or pay a few bucks for a new drive for all the trouble it's worth ;)
[06:02] <s_spiff> brb guys
[06:02] <_jason> ecen: my link lists all the directories in /
[06:03] <silvaran> ecen: did you get my PM?
[06:03] <pbransford> it is fairly old. anyone know how old a pavillion ze5700 laptop would have been if it was under 1,500?
[06:03] <ITSa341> most drives are easy to adjust but be warned it is mainly for diagnostics as usually if it helps the drives life will be short anyway
[06:03] <steven_> Can anyone help with Broadcom 4318 native install in dapper.
[06:03] <ecen> silvaran, yes, thanks, im comparing
[06:03] <bh> Anybody get mplayer playing DVDs on amd64 ?
[06:03] <pbransford> ITSa341, well, a cdrom in a laptop is kinda small... don't think i have the tools (or hands) to adjust that
[06:04] <ITSa341> pbransford  small screwdriver and at most a digital volt ohm meter
[06:04] <silvaran> steven_: were you here earlier about the same thing?  There have been 5-6 people who have come in... your best bet is to check in #ubuntu+1 -- dapper's gone with a native (experimental -- I couldn't get it to work) bcm43xx driver, but I personally prefer ndiswrapper method.
[06:04] <ineedhelp> hi can anyone tell me the username and password for ubuntu live login, a friend of mine accidently hit new login and doesnt want to lose what they are doing
[06:04] <pbransford> ITSa341, what would I adjust it to? (or how would i find out)
[06:04] <ITSa341> and on a laptop it is usually very easy. Most have the pots on the laser assembly which is exposed when the tray is open
[06:05] <steven_> I cannot get ndiswrapper to work now, I tried ndiswrapper
[06:05] <silvaran> pbransford: I would suggest you isolate the cause before you go mucking about with a screwdriver.
[06:05] <pbransford> :) always wise
[06:05] <ITSa341> do a google search for cdrom or dvd laser adjustment or for simple direction which will give you the basics try xbox-scene.com which is where I first found out about it
[06:05] <silvaran> steven_: Really, check #ubuntu+1, the bcm43xx will get loaded automatically and kick out ndiswrapper.
[06:05] <pbransford> suppose i can try it at work after shift, (several display models have dvd drives, one a burner)
[06:05] <ineedhelp> hi can anyone tell me the username and password for ubuntu live login, a friend of mine accidently hit new login and doesnt want to lose what they are doing
[06:06] <ITSa341> I adjust about 3 a week and they usually last a year or so. But if you search you can find the correct settings so you are actually adjusting it to the correct settings not just guessing
[06:06] <_jason> ineedhelp: I believe it is ubuntu for the username and password is blank
[06:06] <Madpilot> ineedhelp, there isn't a pw, but the default username for LiveCD is 'ubuntu'
[06:06] <ineedhelp> they tried that it says invalid
[06:07] <Madpilot> ineedhelp, there's no Cancel button on the new login dialogue?
[06:07] <pbransford> wait...
[06:07] <ineedhelp> it brought up the login screen
[06:07] <warpzone> I'm trying to connect to myself via SSH, but I get "connection refused". I have port 22 open, and can connect to myself using the internal network address, just not from outside
[06:07] <gazanfer> hello. how can i extract .rar archives?
[06:07] <Madpilot> !rar
[06:07] <ubotu> I guess rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[06:07] <ardchoille> !rar
[06:07] <pbransford> my sister's laptop MIGHT do the trick if i can get it to boot. bad motherboard (but only HD controller i think)... knoppix away!
[06:08] <ITSa341> knoppix is cool I tried it for the kids comp   no virus or accidental system file damage/deletion
[06:08] <warpzone> anybody have a moment to help with SSH setup?
[06:09] <FlannelKing> warpzone: what's up?
[06:09] <SpYdAbYtE> hello
[06:10] <SpYdAbYtE> anyone around that could help me with glftpd?
[06:10] <ineedhelp> does anybody know what the password would be, it says login canceled when she trys no password
[06:10] <gazanfer> ok, i need unrar-nonfree package, but its not available via apt-get (i have all repositories enabled)
[06:10] <warpzone> FlannelKing: thanks! I can only access my computer via SSH from within the network. I have port 22 open. From outside, I get "connection refused."
[06:10] <GigaClon> is there a way to obtain a list of all the sizes of folders in a place (eg /storage/)
[06:11] <_jason> gazanfer: you need multiverse
[06:11] <_jason> ubotu: tell gazanfer about multiverse
[06:11] <gazanfer> _jason, as i said, i have multiverse repos enabled
[06:11] <FlannelKing> warpzone: you're at home or whatever?
[06:11] <FlannelKing> warpzone: erm, youre behind a router at home?
[06:11] <_jason> gazanfer: put /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ to be sure
[06:11] <warpzone> FlannelKing: yes
[06:12] <warpzone> and yes
[06:12] <FlannelKing> warpzone: you'll have to set up "port forwarding" on your router.
[06:12] <ardchoille> gazanfer: unrar-nonfree is in the multiverse repo
[06:12] <FlannelKing> or at least, that's what it's usually called.
[06:12] <Madpilot> gazanfer, hit the Reload button in Synaptic, or 'sudo apt-get update'
[06:12] <silvaran> warpzone: what brand of router?
[06:12] <warpzone> FlannelKing: already done, and the default port is open. It's a netgear.
[06:12] <michael> Got my wireless working!!! :)
[06:13] <silvaran> michael: congrats :)
[06:13] <warpzone> I was wondering if I have to set up something in iptables or another file
[06:13] <michael> sorry I was irritating
[06:13] <silvaran> michael: not really
[06:13] <mcquaid> hello, my gf4 died and i had to resort to my old voodoo 3. 2d works but i can't get opengl working
[06:13] <FlannelKing> nope, you shouldn't.  Just make sure your router is forwarding to the right machine ;) and youre using the correct external IP
[06:13] <mcquaid> anyone knowledgable in getting tdfx to work?
[06:13] <Titan> YES YES YES YES!!!! Thanks for all your help guys!! I am now running World of Warcraft now on Ubuntu and it runs like a dream with wine. No problems and very smooth even though I only have 512mb of ram!!
[06:14] <silvaran> Titan: how does it compare to running on windows on the same machine?
[06:14] <gazanfer> i am sure i have multiverse repositories enabled. i downloaded 4-5 packages from them already. can you guys please try getting unrar-nonfree and let me know the result?
[06:14] <warpzone> FlannelKing: hmm alright, I'll double check. Thanks!
[06:15] <_jason> !info unrar-nonfree
[06:15] <ubotu> unrar-nonfree: (Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version)), section multiverse/utils, is optional. Version: 3.4.3-1build1 (breezy), Packaged size: 83 kB, Installed size: 216 kB
[06:15] <silvaran> !info unrar
[06:15] <_jason> gazanfer: trust me it's there, paste /etc/apt/sources.list if you want help
[06:15] <Titan> silvaran, no compair!! SOO smooth. I have not had a chance to run to the cities during high peak but it runs great for now. In windows it was so laggy in the cities that I have to run in little streaches.
[06:15] <silvaran> titan: that's awesome... my coworker is stuck on windows, wants to try ubuntu, but doesn't want to give up WoW.  I'll pass that along.
[06:15] <michael> how often is a cl only distro used aside from a work environment
[06:15] <silvaran> gazanfer: breezy or dapper?
[06:16] <ardchoille> gazanfer: it's there, I'm staring right at it: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/u/unrar-nonfree/
[06:16] <Titan> silvaran, hold on, I will give you my email, he can contact me for help.
[06:16] <silvaran> michael: server environment, where you don't need a gui, like a custom-built router box.
[06:16] <jadaz87> can anyone help me with the hidden ssid ndiswrapper problem i want to keep ubuntu but i do not want to go back to suse or centos :-Z
[06:16] <silvaran> Titan: Oh he'll be able to figure it out, but thanks for the offer ;)
[06:16] <gazanfer> Silencer, breezy
[06:16] <FlannelKing> Titan: what special stuff did you have to do?
[06:16] <michael> k, my other question.. is Ubuntu 6.04 a full update, or is it still beta?
[06:17] <eleybourn> Hello. I am installing about 10 Ubuntu machines to give to one of our local charities for disadvatages families. Anyone know of good documentation to get beginners started with Ubuntu. Pref PDF that I can print out and give.
[06:17] <_jason> michael: still in development
[06:17] <FlannelKing> warpzone: if you want to be super sure, you can setup the computer to be a DMZ or whatever (fully exposed to the internet) and make sure it works.
[06:17] <michael> k, ty
[06:17] <Titan> silvaran, ok cool tell him I just followed the tuts on the forums
[06:17] <silvaran> michael: it's still in development.  Right now it pretty much reflects what it's going to look like at release, without nearly as much polish/bugfixes.
[06:17] <silvaran> titan: excellent, thanks
[06:17] <FlannelKing> Titan: alright, sounds good.
[06:18] <gazanfer> _jason, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10273
[06:18] <warpzone> FlannelKing: hmm, I'll try that last resort. I think I was forwarding to the wrong compy. :'-(
[06:18] <babo> Has anyone ever recovered deleted files from an ext3 file system ??? ... help ?
[06:18] <Titan> FlannelKing, just followed the tuts on the forums, had to search a little for a few things and I still have to fix one mouse problem (can not target things with my mouse, have to use tab) but someone else already had that problem and got a fix for it so I will just follow that.
[06:18] <FlannelKing> Thanks for the headsup Titan, and congrats.
[06:19] <_jason> gazanfer: you don't have breezy multiverse, read the bots link and pay attention to the part about multiverse
[06:19] <wickers> anyone get aiglx working on ubuntu?
[06:19] <Titan> Flannelking, Thanks, I am so excited I am like bursting with joy, anyhow it is late, must get sleep now. talk to you guys later.
[06:19] <silvaran> _jason: he has multiverse enabled, but only for backports
[06:19] <_jason> silvaran: yep, that's what I see too
[06:19] <Madpilot> gazanfer, use this sources.list: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[06:20] <htinn> i always backup files, then delete them
[06:21] <htinn> or "shred" them :)
[06:21] <silvaran> I burn them to a CDR and physically trash them.
[06:22] <wickers> Does aiglx even work on ubuntu?
[06:22] <htinn> isn't AIGLX more of a Red Hat thing?
[06:22] <wickers> it is..
[06:22] <wickers> but it's open code
[06:22] <SpYdAbYtE> i dunno if anyone answered me or not i got locked up .. well my machine locked up
[06:22] <silvaran> wickers: post from 3 weeks ago http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=134743
[06:23] <SpYdAbYtE> But is anyone around who could help me with Glftpd
[06:24] <wickers> silvaran, that's like more then ten pages long with no 'howto' in sight. :(
[06:25] <silvaran> wickers: Well it's more of a state of the union type thing, essentially indicating that it's not nearly as ready for ubuntu as xgl is, but that it's possible in the future...
[06:25] <wickers> by the way, the new 'layout' of the forums is 'teh' suck.
[06:26] <wickers> :(
[06:26] <htinn> forums up?
[06:26] <ardchoille> htinn: yeah, but it's shrunk
[06:26] <OmegaAlpha> anyone good with harddrive errors? good as in. experienced many of their own?
[06:26] <tristanmike> totaly "teh" suck
[06:26] <silvaran> It looks like they just narrowed the pages :(
[06:27] <wickers> They are like, a badge and ajax away from being web2.0 fad-tastic...
[06:27] <OmegaAlpha> errm harddrive as in external harddrive that frozed during resizing in partition magic  :(
[06:27] <FlannelKing> ugh.  I have a big screen, let me use it.
[06:27] <michael> how do I run a script?
[06:28] <Zhadow> hey guys....im tyrying to run a setup.exe file in the terminal using wine.......but everytime i do...nothing happens
[06:28] <htinn> i kinda like the fact that "Absolute Beginner" is at the top now
[06:28] <lastent> !pastebin
[06:28] <michael> i saved a file as winex.sh, how do i get it to run?
[06:29] <htinn> michael, chmod +x file.sh
[06:29] <htinn> then type ./file.sh
[06:29] <htinn> err winex.sh
[06:29] <gazanfer> Madpilot, thank you it worked
[06:30] <michael> htinn: I get this message    usage: cvschroot [-d work_directory]  new_cvsroot [new_module] 
[06:30] <SpYdAbYtE> im so new im not even tryign that wine idea yet
[06:30] <SpYdAbYtE> but i got 20d uptime :) two ircds and a ftp tha tsuedto work :(
[06:30] <SpYdAbYtE> ubuntu is very nice :)
[06:31] <Zhadow> yea it is....im coming up on 20d myself
[06:31] <cge> Is there some reason why my forums account (cevans) is no longer allowed to post in the dapper forum?
[06:31] <SpYdAbYtE> what did u convert from?
[06:31] <SpYdAbYtE> i switched from xp pro
[06:31] <SpYdAbYtE> and talked most my friends into it as well
[06:31] <michael> nm, i try something else
[06:32] <htinn> i always run wine setup.exe from terminal
[06:32] <htinn> that way you can see the errors
[06:32] <Zhadow> same, came form xp too
[06:32] <Zhadow> hey htinn, i do that...but i get no erros
[06:32] <Zhadow> nothing happens at all
[06:33] <ardchoille> my new USB flash disk automounts fine in gnome, but trying to "mount /dev/sda /mnt/USB" gives my a "no media found" error. How do I mount it?
[06:33] <htinn> what type of setup is it?
[06:33] <Zhadow> its a game
[06:33] <br0x> test
[06:33] <SpYdAbYtE> in my first week of ubuntu i had no reboots or anything ... vs the xp machine right next to it networked through the ubuntu machine .. ive formated that abouut 5 times :)
[06:33] <htinn> ardchoille, you need something like a /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2
[06:33] <Zhadow> haha
[06:34] <keishin> Okay, I'm back with hopefully just one more Really Stupid Question.
[06:34] <htinn> (i.e. a flash drive that has been formatted)
[06:34] <keishin> I got the repos of Synergy installed... only final question is how to run it :(
[06:35] <Zhadow> what is synergy?
[06:35] <SpYdAbYtE> mind u .. Ubuntu machine : 256 meg ram, 800 amd k6 proc, 16 meg nvidia vanta vid card ...Windowz : 512meg ram 2.66 intel 96 meg vid card .. game play better on ubuntu system then they do on this new machine :)
[06:35] <Zhadow> maybe you just type synergy into the terminal
[06:35] <keishin> I managed to find where it went... but I guess I'm too much of a windows-noob.  Attempting to 'execute' the file doesn't seem to do much
[06:35] <keishin> Tried, Zhadow =)
[06:35] <Madpilot> keishin, Synergy is in Ubuntu's repos
[06:35] <Zhadow> oh ok
[06:36] <Zhadow> hey spyda  was it easy to get your nvidia to work?
[06:36] <keishin> Right... I have it from the repos
[06:36] <keishin> I just don't know how to run it >_<
[06:36] <SpYdAbYtE> no my linux know it all helped me .. that and the loevly ubuntuforums
[06:36] <SpYdAbYtE> but now he making me fend for help myself on this issue im having :)
[06:36] <SpYdAbYtE> he said " tiem to fly little bird"
[06:36] <SpYdAbYtE> time*
[06:36] <michael> K, trying to install winecvs, I'm supposed to dload this script - http://cvscedega.linux-gamers.net/WineCVS.sh - but it is dead
[06:36] <Zhadow> hahaha
[06:37] <michael> page is linked from http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Cedega+CVS
[06:37] <ardchoille> htinn: neither of those exist
[06:37] <Zhadow> what is your problem?
[06:37] <SpYdAbYtE> well he said hed help me 1st 20 days .. hehe times up :)
[06:37] <SpYdAbYtE> glftpd
[06:37] <SpYdAbYtE> i do !site adduser nick pass ip
[06:37] <htinn> ardchoille, you'll need to use something like gparted on it then
[06:37] <Zhadow> sry,i havent the foggiest
[06:37] <SpYdAbYtE> but it dont work unless i add ip *@0.0.0.0
[06:37] <Madpilot> keishin, typing 'synergy' in terminal doesn't work?
[06:37] <keishin> Correct, not found
[06:38] <babo> Has anyone ever recovered deleted files from an ext3 directory ?  ... help ?
[06:38] <Zhadow> i have, why?
[06:38] <Madpilot> keishin, you installed it thru Synaptic or apt-get, right?
[06:38] <Zhadow> oohhhh, wait...sry, iddint read what you wrote
[06:38] <babo> Zhadow: so it's definitely possible then ? I read a report that said that it's impossible
[06:38] <keishin> Madpilot, yes, through Synaptic.
[06:38] <ardchoille> htinn: gparted says /dev/sda but I can't mount /dev/sda
[06:39] <babo> Zhadow: how ? what did you use ?
[06:39] <htinn> ardchoille, it's just like a hard drive, it needs to be partitioned and formatted before you can mount it
[06:39] <keishin> Madpilot, I found it in /usr/bin/ through File Browser, but none of the files there seem to do me any good either.
[06:41] <Madpilot> keishin, I've never used synergy, but it's odd that just typing the packagename doesn't start it
[06:41] <rixth> Anyone knowledgable on wireless networks?
[06:41] <Madpilot> keishin, does "man synergy" get anything?
[06:41] <ardchoille> htinn: it is, I have put files on it already.
[06:42] <keishin> Doesn't seem to, no
[06:42] <triggerfishy1> need install help please
[06:42] <htinn> ardchoille, how big is this drive we're talking about?
[06:42] <babo> Zhadow: hi, can you remember how you managed to recover ext3's ?
[06:42] <triggerfishy1> install seemed to go just fine then... nothing. Black screen
[06:43] <michael> what site is their to tell me how to install cedega cvs?
[06:43] <ardchoille> htinn: 243Mb. BTW, if I turn off the gnome automounting, then I can manually mount it after plugging it in, that's weird.
[06:43] <Absenth> is Xen slated to be part of drake?
[06:43] <ardchoille> htinn: I'll just keep auto-mounting turned off.
[06:43] <Madpilot> !tell michael about cedega
[06:44] <michael> ty
[06:45] <frank23> michael there is a HOWTO in the forums I think
[06:45] <htinn> http://winecvs.linux-gamers.net/index.php/Main_Page
[06:45] <percent20> has anyone had a problem with nvidia drivers with 64bit?
[06:45] <percent20> i can't seem to get the 3d acceleration going.
[06:45] <michael> that's for the regular version isn't it, not the CVS?
[06:46] <frank23> michael no for cvs. I mean for the regular version of cedega, you have to buy it
[06:46] <michael> k
[06:46] <percent20> I reccomend buying cedega it rulez IMO
[06:46] <percent20> well worth the 5 bucks a month
[06:47] <michael> the link i'm givin looks likes it is for cedega, but i don't want to buy it
[06:47] <htinn> 5 bucks a month?
[06:47] <Absenth> I agree with percent20,  giving Transgaming a little extra development $$$ couldn't hurt,  they release regular updates, and well...  programmers gotta eat.
[06:47] <htinn> that seems... a little steep
[06:47] <Absenth> pay $5 a month, for a min of 3 months, and you can use That version of Cedega for as long as you like.
[06:47] <rixth> I want to start totally again with Gnome/All Applications. Is it ok to remove all folders from ~ that start with a period?
[06:47] <rixth> I know i lose ALL settings
[06:48] <michael> I can't even afford tpaper right now :)
[06:48] <percent20> then should you have net access?
[06:48] <htinn> rixth, that won't do what you think it does :P
[06:48] <rixth> =(
[06:48] <babo> I really need a yes or no answer on this ... has anyone ever recovered deleted ext3 files ... :-) thanks
[06:48] <percent20> i thought the same way until I realized how much 5 dollars isn't
[06:48] <rixth> htinn, how do I do it, then?
[06:48] <michael> I followed the link to http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Cedega+CVS but the link to dload the script is broken
[06:49] <htinn> michael, i think they use anti-leech on that link
[06:49] <Absenth> percent20, I think I've been paying $5 a month since the name of the project went from WineX to Cedega....  whenever that was.
[06:49] <Jolly> how do i change permissions
[06:49] <michael> how do i not leech from the site?
[06:49] <Absenth> percent20,  I also hardly notice the $5,  if it weren't for the e-mails telling me thanks for paying....
[06:49] <htinn> you have to click it like a normal link
[06:50] <Absenth> Jolly, man chmod
[06:50] <percent20> Absenth: wow, I just got it like 2 weeks ago and haven't had a system installed long enough to use it much hell right now i can't get 3d acceleration for 64bit nvidia drivers working
[06:50] <Absenth> Jolly, or, google chmod.  which I find is a lot easier then reading the man pages.
[06:50] <htinn> rixth, you need to use the "Remove" in Synaptic to delete packages
[06:51] <Absenth> percent20, my understanding is, that cedega +64 bit is still...  sketchy at best.
[06:51] <Zhadow> cya later all
[06:51] <rixth> htinn, no no, I just want to wipe all my settings.
[06:51] <rixth> Not remove the packages
[06:51] <Absenth> percent20, I'm using an Athlon 64, but Am running the X86 version of ubuntu.
[06:51] <michael> I try to follow the winecvs.sh link from their search page, does ne1 happen to be willing to send me a copy of the script??
[06:51] <percent20> ah i am trying to run 64bit versions just because I can heh
[06:52] <percent20> well techincally i should be able to
[06:52] <htinn> you tried this? http://winecvs.linux-gamers.net/WineCVS.sh
[06:52] <babo> No-one has ever recovered ext3 files ???? .... :-(
[06:52] <thewayofzen> Forums are back up but now i no longer have the privilege to post on them
[06:52] <Absenth> percent20, Transgaming has a 64 bit native package now?  I didn't think they did
[06:52] <michael> k, ty
[06:52] <michael> it's working
[06:53] <Absenth> babo, sorry I haven't recovered files I deleted since fat 16 & Norton.
[06:53] <percent20> I am tlking stricly about nvidia drivers
[06:53] <Absenth> babo, it techically "Should" be possible, but the "how" I can't help you with.
[06:53] <percent20> right now
[06:53] <SpYdAbYtE> well if noone is around atm to help me with glftpd then im go and come back in the morning .. its late for me and i need some sleep :)
[06:55] <Jolly> I dont get it I have a folder on my desktop that i changed the permissions on that i am trying to drag to a usb drive on my desktop and it gives me the i dont have permissions error
[06:56] <mikeo1> how can i make tightvncserver start gdm by default?
[06:56] <mikeo1> right now it just gives me a shell
[06:57] <htinn> Jolly, you need to set the permissions on the mount point
[06:57] <SpYdAbYtE> bbl
[06:57] <Absenth> Jolly, likely /media/*somethingoranother*
[06:58] <Jolly> ohh
[06:58] <Jolly> yeah that is it
[06:58] <Jolly> but it is sayin that it is a read-only disk
[06:58] <htinn> only ext3 recover i could find is a comercial program :P
[06:59] <Jolly> which i dont think is true thought because on past start ups i used to swap files all the time
[07:00] <htinn> you need to sudo chmod 664 or whatever on that mount point i think
[07:00] <htinn> yay
[07:01] <htinn> time to start burning
[07:01] <dj-fu> lol
[07:01] <dj-fu> flight 4 -> flight 5 wasn't a big upgrade maybe 90mb of dist-upgrade
[07:01] <james_> I need to remove a package.  dpkg is giving me "package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal"
[07:02] <keishin> Okay... I have what should be the command to run in the terminal (including the option to make sure it's not run as a service but in a window).  I still get nothing.
[07:03] <dj-fu> so reinstall it before you try to remove it, james_
[07:03] <odat> anyone able to help with an iPod?
[07:03] <GigaClon> I can try
[07:03] <tiredhippo> i may be able to help
[07:03] <dj-fu> Possibly, what's up?
[07:04] <MrDez> odat: what generation ipod?
[07:04] <odat> my ipod can't be written to at the moment  it is coming up as read only
[07:04] <dj-fu> lol
[07:04] <dj-fu> when you formatted it, did you do fat or ntfs?
[07:05] <dj-fu> or macfs? (lol)
[07:05] <OmegaAlpha> anyone have a reccommendation for a great p2p to use witn linux?
[07:05] <dj-fu> bittorrent
[07:05] <htinn> OmegaAlpha, bittorrent
[07:05] <odat> dj-fu, not sure not the owner  its not a mac version though
[07:05] <james_> dj-fu, i already deleted it, and i'll have to recompile it again to make the package again
[07:05] <MrDez> odat: likely its ntfs
[07:05] <GigaClon> odat has it been writeable before
[07:05] <keishin> *sigh*  Could anyone help with my stupid problem?
[07:05] <james_> OmegaAlpha, use gtk-gnutella
[07:05] <tiredhippo> OmegaAlpha, try Nicotine the Python Soulseek Client
[07:05] <dj-fu> odat: what does `mount|grep pod` output?
[07:06] <OmegaAlpha> bittorrent i dont know how to use.. as soon as i load it.. it asks to locate a meta file...
[07:06] <tiredhippo> OmegaAlpha, search google for torrents
[07:06] <GigaClon> odat if has been writiable before, try unmounting and rebooting, it worked for me
[07:06] <OmegaAlpha> what exactly is a torrent?
[07:06] <GigaClon> OmegaAlpha, thats because you have to have the torrent file
[07:07] <htinn> hahahaha
[07:07] <OmegaAlpha> i always used StrongDC++ for years
[07:07] <GigaClon> its a P2P network
[07:07] <GigaClon> but for one file
[07:07] <dj-fu> OmegaAlpha: bittorrent is used for large scale file distribution, not usually stuff like MP3's
[07:07] <OmegaAlpha> well do they have lots of movies to download?
[07:07] <keishin> A torrent is a small little file that tells you basic info about the file(s) you want to download for  that specific torrent, and the server(s) that tells all the people how to connect to each other
[07:07] <dj-fu> if you're looking for mp3 material, try gtk-gnutella
[07:07] <percent20> what is the switch for glxgears to see the fps?
[07:08] <dj-fu> percent20: glxgears -iacceptthatthisisnotabenchmarkingtool
[07:08] <dj-fu> or something like that.
[07:08] <odat> brb
[07:08] <percent20> holy wow ok ty
[07:08] <OmegaAlpha> well mp3s yes.. but mostly videos, like my shows and my fav movies.. and of course some nice ebooks
[07:08] <GigaClon> but the reason that bittorrent has a avoided the P2P problems is it just a technology like IRC and hte like
[07:09] <keishin> You can get small files on it too, but it's typically collections.  Full albums for instance, instead of individual songs.
[07:09] <keishin> However, with the better clients out there you can choose exactly which files to download.  So if you really only want one song, you can still go that route
[07:09] <OmegaAlpha> tiredhippo, what nicotine like? can i find my videos and in english?
[07:09] <keishin> (unless of course some fool compressed them into an archive =P)
[07:09] <Madpilot> OmegaAlpha, this is not the right channel to discuss piracy...
[07:09] <tiredhippo> OmegaAlpha, for movies and tv it's best to use bit torrent
[07:09] <tiredhippo> go to torrentspy
[07:10] <OmegaAlpha> hehe im not going to sell them.. they are for my own private viewing :)
[07:12] <glick> man xgl is sweet
[07:12] <dj-fu> percent20: "glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark"
[07:12] <glick> is it gonna be released with dapper?
[07:12] <dj-fu> glick: it certainly is
[07:12] <dj-fu> err,
[07:12] <glick> whens that going stable?
[07:12] <dj-fu> I don't know about released with dapper
[07:12] <keishin> But uh... yeah.  Could someone help me get this first thing up and running?  I have a feeling I'll start coming to grips with the whole bit once understand the first one.  (Trying to get Synergy running)
[07:12] <OmegaAlpha> well i have Bittornado and bit torrent both installed on ubuntu along with amule and Direct Connect, which im more familiar with
[07:12] <OmegaAlpha> is amule good. or is that crap
[07:13] <dj-fu> it's edonkey yo, all edonkey is crap
[07:13] <glick> has anyone tried it?
[07:13] <glick> xgl?
[07:13] <dj-fu> yes, I run it on my machine
[07:13] <dj-fu> not this one, but my nix box
[07:13] <dj-fu> it's fucking marvellous, definitely a performance increase in multitasking capabilities
[07:14] <glick> dj-fu, does it really allow you do to like 3d desktop cubs n shit like in the demo vids on novells site>
[07:14] <dj-fu> yes.
[07:14] <dj-fu> it *really* does.
[07:14] <dj-fu> not tooo hard to get going either, i've had trouble with mobility ATI so i'm only running it on my desktop, not laptop
[07:15] <keishin> Please? Can someone help?
[07:15] <htinn> synergy looks like a pain to config
[07:15] <glick> dj-fu, what kina video card you need yo make that sweet?
[07:16] <keishin> I've got the server already set up
[07:16] <htinn> good luck on that keishin :P
[07:16] <dj-fu> glick: i'd say any nvidia fx5200+ would be great
[07:16] <dj-fu> glick: ati would be more useable once the driver is a little stabler, i think.
[07:16] <glick> dj-fu, how much do those go for?
[07:16] <dj-fu> glick: pass ;] 
[07:16] <keishin> I just need to get the client running on this machine.  And I'm quite a noob at nix so far, htinn
[07:16] <dj-fu> keishin: what's the prob man?
[07:16] <glick> more then 500 bucks?
[07:16] <dj-fu> glick: no
[07:16] <keishin> Basically trying to get first installed application running
[07:16] <dj-fu> glick: a fx5200 is very cheap
[07:17] <keishin> the client for synergy, which I installed from Synaptic
[07:17] <dj-fu> keishin: under what, sorry, must have missed what you're trying to do earlier
[07:17] <dj-fu> ah.
[07:17] <dj-fu> synergy
[07:17] <dj-fu> under breezy i assume?
[07:17] <keishin> I did some more reading on its site and
[07:17] <keishin> Yes, correct
[07:17] <tritium> !enter
[07:17] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[07:17] <keishin> I found what should be the exact thing to enter into the
[07:18] <keishin> run dialog
[07:18] <keishin> synergyc -f Velaciela
[07:18] <Wizz_kidd> anyone here ever use giftui?
[07:18] <widow> hey Ive got a question about NTFS partitions
[07:18] <keishin> The -f option should make it foreground window... but I still get nothing
[07:18] <widow> I can read them when I go thru System>Disks and browse the partition
[07:18] <keishin> even if it wasn't handling the network portion correctly, it should pop up the window with the error, ne?
[07:18] <widow> but when i try to access them using the desktop mounted icons it says permission is denied
[07:19] <dj-fu> !ntfs
[07:19] <ubotu> methinks ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:19] <dj-fu> read that
[07:19] <dj-fu> details how to make it so you can access it
[07:19] <dj-fu> i had the problem earlier
[07:19] <dj-fu> sorry tritium, used to using enter as semi-punctuation
[07:19] <widow> thanks much
[07:19] <tritium> !tell dj-fu about enter
[07:19] <widow> i'll try it out
[07:20] <dj-fu> 
[07:20] <dj-fu> ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000
[07:20] <dj-fu> doh
[07:20] <tritium> dj-fu: this channel is too busy for that
[07:20] <dj-fu> Yeah, Sorry - Will try not to :P
[07:21] <kootaphor> so I just switched from gnome to fluxbox - how do I change the application fonts (as opposed to the fluxbox menu, etc fonts?)
[07:21] <tritium> thanks :)
[07:21] <keishin> so dj-fu, any ideas?
[07:21] <jbroome> not to be talking like yoda you shall
[07:21] <dj-fu> keishin: I've never used synergy, sorry, reading about it now
[07:22] <keishin> Mm, understood.   But if I had as much as I've done so far done correctly, shouldn't I at least be getting the window?
[07:22] <vars> hey how do i use echo to overrite a file

[07:30] <dj-fu> kditty: you can do it in private message is what he means
[07:30] <tritium> !tell kditty about ubotu
[07:30] <MySTiC> dj-fu, ok I will ook at that thread, what chan should I be asking in?
[07:30] <alekz> hi, im trying to remove any php4 package from my ubuntu but this message is displayed on synaptic:  E: phpmyadmin: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 127
[07:30] <alekz>    Can some one help me ?
[07:31] <dj-fu> MySTiC: #ubuntu-xgl, #xgl, #compiz
[07:31] <kditty> well can anyone tell me how to instal icon themes? i searched the site ubotu sent me to
[07:31] <percent20> how do you install a .deb package?
[07:31] <MySTiC> dj-fu, ok thanks :D
[07:32] <dj-fu> percent20: dpkg -i <package>.deb
[07:32] <tritium> you'll need to use sudo, percent20
[07:32] <dj-fu> right :)
[07:32] <steven_> got wireless working in dapper WOOT
[07:32] <percent20> haha ok thank you was just about to ask that to be sure
[07:32] <dj-fu> my wireless worked out of the box, was stoked
[07:33] <steven_> I had trouble because i have a 4318 card
[07:33] <dj-fu> nasty
[07:33] <dj-fu> use ndiswrapper?
[07:33] <steven_> and the kernel loads bcm43xx
[07:33] <steven_> so i had to blacklist it
[07:33] <steven_> well i got it to almost work native
[07:33] <steven_> i could scan
[07:33] <steven_> but would not connect on dhclient
[07:34] <dj-fu> boo.
[07:34] <dj-fu> I have a 2200 card, it's sweet.
[07:34] <pvd2006> I am having a problem with my dvd-rom on Ubuntu. It will not eject or anything. I tried to mount both cdroms listed in the fstab file for cdroms but it says both are mounted already. I can't eject the dvd-rom or anything.
[07:34] <steven_> I will work, just have ot give this card time I guess.  I read forums and seems everyone with this card has the same problem
[07:34] <tritium> Instant messaging habits -> IRC channel spamming
[07:34] <dj-fu> tried typing 'eject', pvd2006?
[07:35] <steven_> PVD sudo umount /dev/cdrom
[07:35] <damian_> how do i mount a partition read write
[07:35] <pvd2006> lmao
[07:35] <dj-fu> pvd2006: 'eject' worked?
[07:35] <steven_> lol do it, you cdrom will open
[07:35] <steven_> no, you have to umount it
[07:35] <pvd2006> it opened my dvd-rom when I typed Eject. I guess I have a lot to learn about  linux...
[07:35] <pvd2006> the dvd-rom opened
[07:35] <pvd2006> but
[07:36] <steven_> crazy? eject worked?
[07:36] <pvd2006> its not reading whats on the disc already in there
[07:36] <Wizz_kidd> in linux where are icons found
[07:36] <pvd2006> it says, no medium found
[07:36] <tritium> Wizz_kidd: linux itself is just the kernel.  There are no icons.
[07:36] <damian_> how do i mount a partition read write eg mount /dev/hdb3 /winfs OPTION FOR WRITE
[07:37] <Wizz_kidd> man ok in Ubuntu :P
[07:37] <dj-fu> !ntfs
[07:37] <steven_> Wizz /usr/share/pixmaps
[07:37] <ubotu> it has been said that ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:37] <alekz> hi, im trying to remove any php4 package from my ubuntu but this message is displayed on synaptic:  E: phpmyadmin: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 127  Can some one help me ?
[07:37] <Neko_Freak> Any know what i need to install to get the 3d accel and opengl working for my Nvidia Geforce FX 5200 as well as to be recognized?
[07:37] <steven_> and /usr/share/icons
[07:37] <alekz> ubotu, search status 127
[07:37] <ubotu> alekz: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:37] <percent20> !cedega
[07:37] <damian_> how do i mount a partition read write eg mount /dev/hdb3 /winfs OPTION FOR WRITE
[07:38] <ardchoille> hal hates me :(
[07:38] <dj-fu> Neko_Freak: install the nvidia packages - nvidia-kernel-common nvidia-glx - then configure xorg.conf as required
[07:38] <alekz> ubotu, search *127*
[07:38] <ubotu> alekz: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:38] <dj-fu> !tell damian_ about ntfs
[07:38] <pvd2006> I guess I need to umount it mount it again maybe?
[07:38] <TraceGreenbaby> Hello, i ask this question in debian channel, nobody answer me, so , i ask here, what port does ping use?
[07:38] <pvd2006> whoops
[07:38] <damian_> DJ FU?
[07:38] <ardchoille> damian_: is the patition NTFS?
[07:38] <Neko_Freak> dj-fu configure? o.o
[07:38] <dj-fu> TraceGreenbaby: PING sends an ICMP ECHO request, ports refer to TCP/IP.
[07:39] <damian_> nope fat32 it automatically miounts red only need it read write wasnt sure how
[07:39] <tritium> !tell Neko_Freak about nvidia
[07:39] <dj-fu> damian_: read the link anyway, it will tell you how to mount it rw.
[07:39] <pvd2006> Nevermind, the dvd-rom works now, thanks dj-fu
[07:39] <TraceGreenbaby> dj-fu, sorry, but i don't understand, do you mean port would change when use ping?
[07:40] <dj-fu> TraceGreenbaby: it's a different protocol altogether, Ping doesn't use ports.
[07:40] <Neko_Freak> danke tritium
[07:40] <TraceGreenbaby> ok, dj-fu , thanks.
[07:41] <dj-fu> tritium: this channel sure is busy, I see what you mean.
[07:41] <Shadowpillar> http://www.ohgizmo.com/images/harddrive.jpg haha
[07:41] <tritium> dj-fu: yep :)
[07:41] <damian_> dj-fu thanks. Is there a way to automatically reload my fstab without rebooting eg test whats in it?
[07:42] <dj-fu> damian_: mount -a
[07:42] <dj-fu> errr, you may want to umount your fat partition first, so that it's remounted with the fstab options
[07:43] <damian_>  np thanks
[07:43] <pvd2006> One last question, Where is a good place to download automation scripts for linux?
[07:43] <pvd2006> :-x
[07:43] <dj-fu> Make your own, and cronjob em.
[07:44] <damian_> works fine:)
[07:44] <pvd2006> hmmm
[07:45] <pvd2006> Well I am looking to create a little script that will search a certain site on a certain day to see if it has a new file uploaded and automatically download it.  any good programming resources for shell scripting, perl to learn something like that?
[07:45] <smog> Is there any documentation on securing ubuntu?
[07:45] <dj-fu> the documentation that applies to securing any linux system applies to ubuntu
[07:46] <dj-fu> pvd2006: perl should be able to do that easily enough, probably do-able with bash scripting aswell
[07:46] <percent20> anyone here install cedega on 64bit?
[07:46] <pvd2006> Hmm, I guess Ill have to break out my learning skills for Perl tonight.
[07:47] <dj-fu> pvd2006: Perl is definitely a language worth learning, especially for hacking little scripts together.
[07:47] <ardchoille> Anyone know of a webpage that lists all the Linux commands with their descriptions?
[07:48] <pvd2006> yeah, its nice, ive been reading on it and doing but I jsut got to the arrays section, not too hard, just confusing when they dont use easy array names.
[07:48] <pvd2006> anwayys, thanks
[07:48] <dj-fu> ardchoille: a good place to start is probably `ls /usr/bin/*|less`
[07:48] <tristanmike> ardchoille, I really like tuxfiles.org, it's not all the commands, but a bunch of the core ones
[07:48] <Madpilot> !tell ardchoille about cli
[07:48] <dj-fu> that'll give you a fair few linux commands, then of course you can look them up with `man command`
[07:48] <kbrosnan> http://www.linuxcommand.org/superman_pages.php
[07:49] <ardchoille> dj-fu, tristanmike, Madpilot: Thank you :)
[07:50] <FlannelKing> hmm, is there any way to tar up everything on a disk, and write the tar to the same disk?
[07:50] <warzone> good day to you
[07:51] <warzone> hello
[07:51] <warzone> anyone here
[07:51] <sethk> no
[07:51] <warzone> talk please

[07:52] <FlannelKing> Ive mounted it on a liveCD, now Im just wondering the syntax.  even if I can just copy everything to a folder on the disk, I can tgz from there
[07:52] <warzone> can anyone help me?
[07:52] <tristanmike> FlannelKing, something like  "tar cvpzf backup.tgz / --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys"
[07:52] <dj-fu> FlannelKing: tar -cvvf foo.tar foo/
[07:52] <sethk> warzone, you can use gaim, which is a compatible messenger program
[07:53] <dj-fu> listen to tristanmike, he's got it sussed
[07:53] <warzone> gaim
[07:53] <warzone> ok
[07:53] <sethk> warzone, to run actual exes, you need to install a windows emulator such as wine, but that's not the best way to do it.
[07:53] <warzone> how do  i install an executable file
[07:53] <warzone> ok
[07:53] <tristanmike> FlannelKing, you'll might have to use sudo
[07:53] <FlannelKing> dj-fu: hmm? except I can only write to the drive... and I run out of room if I try to just write to the liveCDs filesystem
[07:53] <tristanmike> FlannelKing, that will save it to "/"
[07:54] <warzone> how do i install wine
[07:54] <sethk> warzone, I assume you mean a windows executable.  For a linux executable the recommended way to install is with synaptic
[07:54] <FlannelKing> tristanmike: yeah, I can use --exclude on the targz, right.
[07:54] <sethk> warzone, you install wine with synaptic
[07:54] <warzone> synaptic?
[07:54] <alekz> hi, im trying to remove any php4 package from my ubuntu but this message is displayed on synaptic:  E: phpmyadmin: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 127  Can some one help me ?
[07:54] <dj-fu> or apt
[07:54] <warzone> where can i find that
[07:54] <tristanmike> FlannelKing, make sure you do, or weird things will happen cause your backing up your backup which is backing up your back up which is....
[07:55] <tristanmike> FlannelKing, that's in there too
[07:55] <tristanmike> FlannelKing, that command also perserves permissions too
[07:55] <warzone> i cannot fins this thing called synaptic
[07:55] <FlannelKing> tristanmike: yeah, got it.  The recursion thing is what Iw as worried about.
[07:55] <warzone> find*
[07:55] <dj-fu> warzone: `apt-get install wine`
[07:55] <warzone> ok
[07:55] <dj-fu> Right guys, I'm off for a Molten Core raid. Seeyas.
[07:55] <tristanmike> warzone, System-Administration-Synaptic
[07:55] <FlannelKing> tristanmike: considered copying everything to a folder, but... didnt know how to not copy the folder to the folder, heh
[07:55] <warzone> what do i do with apt-get
[07:56] <warzone> arent u meant to just double click it
[07:56] <warzone> and it installs
[07:56] <warzone> i am sorry if i a tad noobish
[07:56] <tristanmike> FlannelKing, heh, yeah, and make sure that you exclude the others there too, they are pretty much virtual folders that should recreate themselves on restore/boot
[07:56] <tristanmike> FlannelKing, if that's what your doing :P
[07:57] <warzone> w007 i found synaptic
[07:57] <ardchoille> lol
[07:57] <tristanmike> warzone, "apt-get" is the command line version on Synaptic
[07:57] <warzone> o
[07:57] <warzone> where do  i type that
[07:57] <tritium> !tell warzone about enter
[07:57] <ardchoille> in a term
[07:57] <warzone> no like in wondows there is run and you can type in cmd
[07:58] <tristanmike> warzone, when you click on the little box in synaptic and click "apply" it's the same as saying "sudo apt-get install <what ever box you selected>
[07:58] <ardchoille> warzone: ALT+F2
[07:58] <warzone> oh
[07:58] <warzone> thanks guys
[07:58] <warzone> i will come later
[07:58] <warzone> atm i have some exploring to do
[07:58] <smellican> help, I upgraded to dapper and broke ubuntu lol
[07:59] <tritium> smellican: #ubuntu+1 for dapper questions
[07:59] <smellican> oh I see how it is
[07:59] <smellican> :P
[07:59] <tritium> smellican: use dapper at your own risk until it's released
[08:01] <smellican> yea I cloned my vm be4 upgrading so I still got breezy
[08:01] <smellican> but would like to get this dapper install working if I can :)
[08:02] <wabble> when installing dapper the keyboard map gets taken from behind
[08:03] <ardchoille> wabble: that's a nice way of putting it
[08:03] <rob138> does anyone know how to turn back on the holding down of a arrow key moving a open window? something happened and now i have to repeatedly push the arrow buttons
[08:03] <smellican> !upgrade
[08:03] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade.  Upgrading to dapper (remember it may break). Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html.
[08:03] <wabble> ardchoille well i was unable to fix it with my lack of expertice on linux so i was frustrated for an hour and installed breezy again ;)
[08:04] <rob138> does anyone know how to turn back on the holding down of a arrow key moving a open window? something happened and now i have to repeatedly push the arrow buttons, please?
[08:05] <martyv> rogconf?
[08:05] <martyv> rob138, gconf?
[08:05] <rob138> where in gconf do you think it would be? metacity?
[08:06] <wabble> but network profiles on kubuntu is the real killer of frustration when using a laptop with wlan and static ip's i think. Ubuntu is the one
[08:06] <martyv> that would be my guess
[08:06] <rob138> any clue on what it would be called?
[08:06] <martyv> nope
[08:06] <rob138> i dont think an entry is there for it...
[08:07] <martyv> so what eactly is the function?
[08:08] <rob138> like when you are on a word document or webpage, and you want to scroll down, or scroll through items in nautilis, you normally can hold down an arrow key to do so, but i have to keep pushing it per each entry/scroll
[08:08] <rob138>  i somehow disabled it or something
[08:09] <MrDez> anyone know how to turn on the File / Edit / etc. menu in a KDE app if it gets hidden (in Kopete specifically)?
[08:09] <martyv> rob138, so we are talking about an auto-repeat?
[08:10] <rob138> uhm maybe? i could try that
[08:10] <revolutionary> hey im having a headache with getting a couple of iptables rules that will allow me to ftp, i seem to have forgotten how to do it correctly.
[08:10] <martyv> rob138, check keyboard pres
[08:10] <rob138> martyv, where?
[08:12] <mikebot> can someone help me with some php?
[08:12] <mikebot> is that off topic?
[08:13] <martyv> rob138, Preference->Keyboard

[08:21] <glick> haha
[08:21] <neo36> tristanmike Really?
[08:21] <shoen> i was copying what neo36 said
[08:21] <keishin> Okay, managed to get Synergy working.  Stupid problem #2.  breezy firefox is crazy old, so I'm looking to update.  Didn't see anything on Synaptic, so I'm assuming I need to do it manually.  I got the tarball, but I don't seem to have permissions to copy it to anywhere that looks right.  Am I missing the conventional location?
[08:21] <tristanmike> neo36, see what he said above ? :P
[08:21] <wabble> shoen how does your apt-file look?
[08:22] <shoen> it should be clean
[08:22] <shoen> fresh install of
[08:22] <shoen> Kubuntu
[08:22] <tristanmike> !tell keishin about ff1.5
[08:22] <wabble> shoen do a sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list and take a look from a terminal
[08:23] <wabble> close adept before you open it
[08:23] <keishin> That looks beautiful.  Thank you, tristanmike.
[08:23] <shoen> i cant even open adept
[08:23] <tristanmike> np keishin
[08:24] <wabble> shoen are you using breezy kubuntu?
[08:24] <shoen> Breezy badger or what ever? yes
[08:25] <wabble> shoen ok, well if you havent edited your apt repos or anything and you can't start adept i cant help you. Sorry. Maybe someone else here can..
[08:25] <LoCusF> !ff1.5
[08:25] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[08:25] <shoen> yea sources is empty
[08:25] <shoen> says 46l, 2319c
[08:25] <shoen> thats it
[08:26] <shoen> omfg the more i use linux the more i want to break a monitor
[08:26] <glick> why break monitors?
[08:27] <wabble> shoen well if it's blank you have to put in kubuntu repos for it to work.. i don't know what the repos for kubuntu is
[08:27] <_Rappy_> I encounter a funny problem with e repositories. After my laptop has been turned off, and I fire up synaptic, it claims that it can't find ANY of the repositories I've added. I have to delete them, and add them again, and then it's all ok. Anyont have a clue what's going on?
[08:27] <wabble> shoen but the repos should be there if you havent done anything with it after install
[08:28] <shoen> wabble: ok thanks for the help...ima go break something maybe ill feel better
[08:28] <shoen> wabble i just wana get wine to work...i wana cry

[08:31] <ReWT_AxS> :-\
[08:32] <frank23> ReWT_AxS: oh. getting codecs to run is harder
[08:32] <unix_> ReWT_AxS,  you can install it with sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture w32codecs*.deb
[08:32] <ReWT_AxS> i used to be able to play stuff in it though :-\
[08:32] <unix_> ReWT_AxS, it works fine for me
[08:33] <Healot> w32codecs is only a bunch of ripped Windows codecs... :)
[08:33] <wabble> just copy the files to the correct directory
[08:33] <ReWT_AxS>  sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture w32codecs*.deb
[08:33] <ReWT_AxS> oops

[08:35] <wabble> just type w32 and then press tab

[08:35] <ReWT_AxS> nothing comes up
[08:36] <unix_> you should download the codecs first :)
[08:36] <ReWT_AxS> im new to this so im not sure what to don after i get it
[08:36] <ReWT_AxS> i dont understand why it would work like a month ago and not now
[08:36] <wabble> ReWT_AxS in the folder you downloaded it too
[08:36] <ReWT_AxS> i havent even messed with anything
[08:36] <ReWT_AxS> it went to desktop
[08:37] <wabble> then type cd /Desktop before the other things
[08:37] <Shadowpillar> wabble: no
[08:37] <Shadowpillar> cd ~/Desktop
[08:38] <ReWT_AxS> im in desktop now in terminal
[08:38] <Healot> pwd?
[08:38] <wabble> Shadowpillar he is probably in his home folder
[08:38] <unix_> can you see the deb file with ls?
[08:38] <ReWT_AxS> i ressed tavb and it popped up with the stuff

[08:38] <wabble> ;)
[08:38] <Healot> working on the Terminal and he lost his passport
[08:38] <ReWT_AxS> the i386 w32 codec one
[08:39] <unix_> yes
[08:39] <unix_> that's why you have to use --force-architecture
[08:39] <Zero_Day> pwd is print working directory not password
[08:40] <wabble> i want more coffe
[08:40] <Zero_Day> ok im trying to do the same thing i would guess lemme catch up
[08:40] <Shadowpillar> wabble: specifying /Desktop would take him out of his home folder to a nonexistant file
[08:40] <Shadowpillar> wabble: so either ./Desktop or just Desktop
[08:40] <wabble> Shadowpillar ah, i know now. I need more coffe. Brb :P

[08:59] <ubotu> w32codecs is probably 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
[09:00] <z3r0x> batman, because you don't have the codec
[09:00] <batman> yeah... where could i get it?

[09:05] <hollywood> I am trying to install kismet and am getting nowhere. I have read the README and tried ./configure and I got an error. "Unable to find libncurses or libcurses.
[09:05] <brice> hello
[09:06] <hollywood> hi
[09:06] <hollywood> Can anyone help me out?
[09:06] <Healot> dude! get libncurses-dev or libcurses first... available at the repos for 4.99 :)
[09:06] <Healot> libcurses-dev
[09:06] <brice> i've got a probleme that a solve few days ago but i don't remenber how. I connect myself on ssh to a distant server and when i try to open gq in graphical it says me
[09:07] <brice> [root@servmail root] # gq
[09:07] <brice> connect localhost port 6000: Connection refused
[09:07] <brice> The application 'gq' lost its connection to the display localhost:10.0;
[09:07] <brice> most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
[09:07] <brice> the application.
[09:07] <batman> is there a way to close an app in terminal if it freezes up?
[09:07] <Healot> kill it, batman?
[09:07] <batman> Healot, so kill app?
[09:08] <PuMpErNiCkLe> brice: try running 'grep gq ~/.bash_history' - it should show you all the commands you've run before, including the ones that worked
[09:08] <Healot> Ctrl+C or "kill <app id>"
[09:08] <brice> PuMpErNiCkLe, i format my computer :)
[09:08] <PuMpErNiCkLe> brice: oh....
[09:08] <batman> bleh how can i figure out the app id?
[09:08] <Healot> wow... what your computer like brice?
[09:08] <hollywood> hmm
[09:08] <PuMpErNiCkLe> batman: ps -aux or top
[09:09] <Healot> what youre computer looks like now, brice, since you;ve formatted it?
[09:09] <defrysk> open gnome-system-monitor and select the process you wish to end and kill it
[09:09] <Healot> batman: , check out the ID on the program that matches the one running/freezing, next type "kill <the id>"
[09:09] <brice> i think the kay is connect 127.0.0.1 port 6000: Connection refused
[09:09] <Healot> the id is the ID stated on the output of ps or top
[09:09] <PuMpErNiCkLe> brice: I meant in the ssh session, though... since the command was run through ssh on the server, it should show up in the server's .bash_history file.  (Unless the server is the one you formatted...?)
[09:10] <tinel> s
[09:10] <brice> when i change $DISPLAY this message change too
[09:10] <percent_20> how do you kill a process that doesn't want to die
[09:10] <hollywood> I need help compileing kismet
[09:10] <Healot> kill -9 :)
[09:10] <PuMpErNiCkLe> percent_20: kill -9 pid
[09:10] <Healot> or the worst,  hard reboot...
[09:10] <defrysk> percent_20,  open gnome-system-monitor and select the process you wish to end and kill it
[09:10] <batman> Healot, thanks
[09:11] <hollywood> percent_20: you can type top in terminal to see all apps running and get the app id
[09:11] <percent_20> Healot: thanks problem was i was trying to kill cedega and couldn't access the gnome-system-monitor
[09:12] <brice> PuMpErNiCkLe, from memory it's on the client that i change something
[09:13] <hollywood> I can't figure out how to install kismet please?
[09:13] <batman> bleh mplayer keeps freezing when i try to play a burnt off dvd
[09:13] <Healot> percent_20: , you can try "killall cedega"
[09:13] <PuMpErNiCkLe> brice: My usefulness ends right about.... now, then. :o
[09:13] <PuMpErNiCkLe> batman: Have you tried VLC instead?
[09:14] <batman> PuMpErNiCkLe, yes i ahve
[09:14] <percent_20> Healot: didn't work either the -9 worked though
[09:14] <PuMpErNiCkLe> batman: Did it work? ^^
[09:14] <Healot> try again, again....
[09:14] <batman> no
[09:15] <PuMpErNiCkLe> hm
[09:15] <bolrod> when you kill cedega.. make sure you kill wine and wineserver as well?
[09:15] <Healot> restart X, if t he program runs on X, Just press Alt+Ctrl+Backspace (don't type this silly)
[09:15] <batman> PuMpErNiCkLe, i have the w32codecs installed also
[09:15] <bolrod> thats not a good way of killing a process ..
[09:16] <Healot> it is not... bolrod
[09:16] <Healot> it was meant for last resort...
[09:16] <bolrod> it doesn't even work well
[09:16] <bolrod> you can kill a screen with kill screen in gnome...
[09:16] <bolrod> there is some program that lets you click the screen you want to force quit
[09:16] <Healot> Last resort, got problem with that?
[09:17] <PuMpErNiCkLe> batman: And libdvdcss2?
[09:17] <batman> PuMpErNiCkLe, yeah
[09:17] <hollywood> did no one else see that percent_20 said that kill -9 worked?
[09:17] <vax_> hello room
[09:17] <revolutionary> hey i got a .bash_profile question.
[09:17] <bolrod> yes..
[09:17] <bolrod> kill -9 works always
[09:17] <bolrod> and if it doesn't.. you'd better reboot
[09:17] <hollywood> what is libncurses or libcurses
[09:18] <harmonic> exit
[09:18] <jb1> bolrod: you are looking for xkill
[09:18] <blatios> jag har ububtu-386 nu, kan ja inte f tag p K8 kerneln genom apt?
[09:18] <bolrod> possibly
[09:18] <PuMpErNiCkLe> !se
[09:18] <ubotu> Svensk Ubuntu- och Kubuntusupport hittar du pa #ubuntu.se resp. #kubuntu.se
[09:18] <bolrod> when kill -9 doesn't work.. its probably pretty hard to get a process to terminate..
[09:19] <Healot> unnice it?
[09:19] <jb1> bolrod: won;t be able to kill a zombie process
[09:19] <hollywood> I am getting errors installing kismet.
[09:20] <bolrod> yes... well.. zombies are crap!
[09:20] <bolrod> :)
[09:20] <PuMpErNiCkLe> zombies will eat your brain
[09:20] <bolrod> :)
[09:20] <saknik> hi
[09:21] <hollywood> why is everything a struggle with linux
[09:21] <jb1> hollywood: no pain...no gain
[09:22] <hollywood> sad when windows is easier to install on :\
[09:22] <bolrod> it is?
[09:22] <jb1> hollywood: not my recent experience
[09:22] <bolrod> indeed
[09:22] <bolrod> I just reinstalled a computer with windows
[09:23] <bolrod> because it wouldn't print anymore
[09:23] <bolrod> got IO error
[09:23] <bolrod> ;/
[09:23] <hollywood> easier since all i do is click and it installs it for me
[09:23] <bolrod> installed the cd that came with the printer.. and it found the printer.. said it was ok and cable was connected
[09:23] <hollywood> files don't normally turn up missing
[09:23] <bolrod> there was only one problem
[09:23] <ajmitch> hollywood: and installing kismet through synaptic isn't as easy?
[09:23] <bolrod> the cable from the printer...... I had it in my hand... :)
[09:24] <jb1> lol bolrod
[09:24] <hollywood> haha
[09:24] <bolrod> yeah..... I didn't know what to say!
[09:24] <hollywood> i wouldnt know actually i dont know what synaptic is
[09:24] <bolrod> I was like... O_O!!!!  RIIGHT
[09:24] <ajmitch> hollywood: then how are you trying to install kismet?
[09:25] <batman> PuMpErNiCkLe, thats odd gxine plays it fine
[09:25] <hollywood> like the readme says to
[09:25] <hollywood> ./configure
[09:25] <bolrod> synaptic is just a graphical frontend to apt
[09:25] <hollywood> make then make install
[09:25] <bolrod> checkinstall is better
[09:25] <bolrod> you get a .deb you can install then
[09:25] <ajmitch> bolrod: wash your mouth out :)
[09:25] <bolrod> well what to use then?
[09:25] <s|k> good god the forums look terrible
[09:25] <s|k> what happened
[09:26] <ajmitch> hollywood: you're doing it the hard way - go to system->administration->synaptic package manager
[09:26] <hollywood> before i go downloading synaptic...it doesnt come with ubuntu?
[09:26] <bolrod> it should
[09:26] <ajmitch> hollywood: yes, it does, it's installed with every desktop install
[09:26] <bolrod> ajmitch: whats wrong with checkinstall?
[09:27] <ajmitch> bolrod: it creates nasty, bad & wrong packages
[09:27] <bolrod> ;o
[09:27] <vbellvert> eee
[09:27] <bolrod> whats a better program for making packages?
[09:27] <jlucpal> hola
[09:27] <ajmitch> bolrod: learning how? :)
[09:27] <vbellvert> k pae!!!
[09:27] <bolrod> erh.. yes :P
[09:27] <bolrod> I rarely compile something
[09:27] <jlucpal> a kina hora apages el autobus
[09:27] <bolrod> when I do.. I just want it to be put in a package :)
[09:28] <hollywood> so when i open synaptic where do i go.  First time installing anything on linux
[09:29] <geckosenator> someone told me ubuntu has builtin root
[09:29] <geckosenator> is this true?
[09:29] <geckosenator> like it is designed so you always use root
[09:30] <vbellvert> ola putillas
[09:30] <vbellvert> kiero sexo estremo
[09:30] <vbellvert> fucking
[09:30] <PK> hey, I had to overwrite the root pw in the shadow file, and now when I try to start like Gnome menu System->Administration->any application it asks for the root pw and then fail with the reason of invalid password. when I start a console and su - then it works just fine, but it can't find the X when I try to start the update-manager.... then again su without the '-' works :? any idea what might be wrong here?
[09:31] <arrinmurr> geckosenator: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[09:32] <vbellvert> hola

[09:35] <hollywood> So I have synaptic open...doesn't list kismet anywhere...
[09:36] <arrinmurr> hmm... i've never understood why some people think everybody everywhere speaks their whatever-it-is-language
[09:36] <painkiler> hey guys
[09:36] <ajmitch> hollywood: enable universe then
[09:36] <Healot> kismet isn;t listed because ubuntu doesn;t like it, get the source or package from unofficial sites...
[09:36] <painkiler> could i get a copy of  the start up diagnostics?
[09:37] <ajmitch> Healot: rubbish, it's been in the archive since the beginning
[09:37] <painkiler> i would like the text that ubuntu says when it boots
[09:37] <Healot> ajmitch: , brit?
[09:37] <ajmitch> Healot: no, why?
[09:37] <Healot> then rubbish...
[09:37] <hollywood> either way how do i use synaptic to install it
[09:38] <arrinmurr> painkiler: you should get some of it with the "dmesg" command
[09:38] <painkiler> ahh
[09:38] <painkiler> im just not on my *inx box atm
[09:38] <ajmitch> !universe

[09:39] <painkiler> could someone pastebin it for me?
[09:39] <hollywood> oops
[09:39] <ompaul> painkiler, consider it done (if your talking about universe)
[09:39] <Healot> paste your dmesg output? how's that possible?
[09:40] <revolutionary> what does this do? 1>&2 2>/dev/null
[09:40] <Seveas> mornin'
[09:40] <painkiler> Healot: just copy it
[09:40] <ajmitch> morning Seveas
[09:41] <ompaul> morning Seveas
[09:41] <Hobbsee> hi Seveas
[09:41] <Seveas> revolutionary, redirect all output to nomansland

[09:41] <ompaul> ajmitch, gets to make the coffee no its outs to hobbsee :)
[09:42] <Hobbsee> ompaul: huh?  lol
[09:42] <zn> hi everyone,i installed xubuntu (dapper) according to the official wiki.but there could be only one sound at a time.what sould i do?alsa ?esd?which packge?thanks a lot
[09:42] <revolutionary> Seveas, ok so then $IPT -t filter -P $CHAIN $POLICY 1>&2 2>/dev/null
[09:43] <revolutionary> i dont get why this dude put that on the end of that rule.
[09:43] <revolutionary> ?
[09:43] <Seveas> revolutionary, he wants to see no output I guess
[09:43] <revolutionary> is it really needed?
[09:44] <revolutionary> ok
[09:44] <ompaul> revolutionary, how much room have you got for logs?
[09:45] <revolutionary> why would it log ? unless i go -j LOG
[09:45] <ompaul> there is that
[09:46] <revolutionary> i thought iptables wont log unless you explicitly use the LOG target
[09:46] <pvd2006> I just installed the apache2 package through the synaptic package manager and not sure what to do from there to get the web server running?
[09:46] <revolutionary> pvd
[09:46] <revolutionary> it is running now
[09:46] <U> lol
[09:46] <hollywood> ajmitch: thanks for the help. I don't see how I could have figured it out on my own.
[09:47] <pvd2006> I cant find the configuration files and such though
[09:47] <revolutionary> all configs are under /etc
[09:47] <revolutionary> /etc/apache2/
[09:48] <revolutionary> you can read the docs @ apache's website, and the man pages are great too.
[09:48] <revolutionary> man ftp is such a hassle with iptables.
[09:48] <revolutionary> !
[09:48] <ubotu> revolutionary: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:49] <revolutionary> woops
[09:49] <revolutionary> ;p
[09:50] <hollywood> where does it install kismet to :\
[09:50] <revolutionary> /usr/local i think
[09:50] <hollywood> thank you
[09:51] <CHAOS_mUFy> hi how can i play mp3 files in ubunto
[09:51] <Healot> CHAOS_mUFy: , you can install xmmx (universe repos)
[09:51] <CHAOS_mUFy> where can i get xmms
[09:51] <ubuntu> hello all
[09:51] <Healot> or install all appropriate plugins to play it with the existing totem...
[09:51] <ubuntu> total linux newbie here
[09:52] <Healot> ubuntu: , I was, once :)
[09:52] <coolsail> how to backup my ubuntu except /home ?
[09:52] <CHAOS_mUFy> i am sorry i am a new linux user so i wanna know how?
[09:52] <ubuntu> just trying out the live cd. hardware detection was amazing!
[09:52] <ubuntu> better then windows~!
[09:52] <Healot> take a look at what I do
[09:52] <Healot> !repos
[09:52] <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
[09:53] <Healot> there you fo.. CHAOS_mUFy
[09:53] <beeswax> CHAOS: open Synaptic, enable universe repositories, then search vor xmms and install
[09:53] <revolutionary> CHAOS_mUFy, yeah use synaptic and search for xmms then libmad0 and click apply
[09:53] <hollywood> hmm didn't find it in /usr/local. I am not even sure what it would be named?
[09:53] <Healot> if you freshly installed ubuntu, you really need to get universe repos working out...
[09:53] <hollywood> what extension i mean
[09:54] <revolutionary> hollywood, /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin or /usr/sbin
[09:54] <vincenz> I have an issue with ubuntu
[09:54] <vincenz> I have screen open
[09:54] <revolutionary> one of those
[09:54] <vincenz> whenever I open a new window in it
[09:54] <beeswax> CHAOS: if you wanna play movies as well, better install vlc (=wxvlc)
[09:54] <vincenz> it complains "can't open /var/run/utmp, have to dig too hard"
[09:54] <vincenz> I can open that file fine with vim for isntance
[09:54] <beeswax> it's the easyest way
[09:55] <Healot> use /usr/local to install locally made files, especially the one you './configured' with
[09:55] <s|k> will installing openmotif break gnome?
[09:55] <coolsail> could someone tell me how to backup my ubuntu except /home ???:)
[09:55] <vincenz> Should I remove that file?
[09:55] <revolutionary> beeswax, do you like vlc more than xine
[09:55] <revolutionary> ?
[09:55] <Healot> s|k: , it doesn't...
[09:55] <s|k> okay thanks
[09:55] <revolutionary> beeswax, should i switch
[09:55] <s|k> I saw that it was a windows manager
[09:55] <beeswax> mmh... well, it's got sum bugs, but all in all i like it a lot
[09:55] <intelikey> hmmm having trubble viewing a bitmap file.   links keeps displaying the code not the image, any sujestions ?
[09:55] <s|k> and that frightened me
[09:55] <beeswax> just try it
[09:56] <revolutionary> beeswax, yeah xine has a few flaws to. but very minor
[09:56] <hollywood> would it be kismet_client and the icon be a purple triangle with cogs ?
[09:56] <beeswax> jep. same with vlc. it's rather personal, which one u like more
[09:56] <revolutionary> hollywood, are you trying to run it?
[09:57] <hollywood> yes
[09:57] <intelikey> any fvwm users here can tell me, is it light weight ?  and  can you set wall paper ?
[09:57] <revolutionary> hollywood, just goto the shell and tpye sudo kismet
[09:57] <Frogzoo> intelikey: eye of gnome won't display a bitmap?
[09:57] <revolutionary> hollywood, what card ?
[09:58] <intelikey> Frogzoo might if i had the space to install it
[09:58] <Frogzoo> intelikey: gthumb?
[09:58] <beeswax> something funny: i can rename any app launcher on the desktop but gaim... it just doesn't rename.. any ideas?
[09:59] <s|k> Healot: how do i find a broken package? Do you know?
[09:59] <revolutionary> hollywood, what kind of card do u got?
[09:59] <hollywood> ethernet card?
[09:59] <yorkensen> hi all
[09:59] <Healot> s|k apt-get update... it well tell... or better use synaptic or kpackage (for KDE)
[10:00] <Healot> apt-get -f install will fix all the broken packages
[10:00] <intelikey> again requires gnome.   which in turn requires about.... After unpacking 619MB of additional disk space will be used.      which is bigger than my hard drive.
[10:00] <beeswax> btw: how can i set a disk-label?
[10:00] <hollywood> i just use the built in ethernet on my motherboard
[10:00] <intelikey> Frogzoo ^
[10:00] <revolutionary> so your using kismet for an eth card?
[10:00] <bosco> is there anyway to set up a microphone in gaim
[10:01] <hollywood> yes
[10:01] <revolutionary> kismet is for wireless.
[10:01] <hollywood> only
[10:01] <revolutionary> i thought
[10:01] <hollywood> probably
[10:01] <bosco> hollywood, do you know how to do it
[10:01] <hollywood> how to do what
[10:01] <revolutionary> you want nmap etherape ettercap and other good stuff ;p
[10:01] <hollywood> microphone in gaim?
[10:02] <revolutionary> bbl
[10:02] <CHAOS_mUFy> how can i enable universe repositories  i cant find it
[10:02] <hollywood> if there is no manufacture driver for my wireless that works on linux is there any other way to get one?
[10:02] <Healot> !repos
[10:02] <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
[10:02] <Healot> read that... CHAOS_mUFy :)
[10:03] <hollywood> it was easy o.O
[10:03] <Healot> hollywood:  you can always use ndiswrapper
[10:03] <hollywood> so i just wasted an hour install kismet to find it doesnt work with ethernet...
[10:03] <s|k> Healot: thanks
[10:04] <hollywood> what are the oddes it includes an usb wireless?
[10:04] <hollywood> scratch that
[10:04] <s|k> Healot: is this safe to install: Open Motif - X11 clients (mwm, xmbind) ?
[10:05] <TraceGreenbaby> hello, does every byte in utf16 is between 0x20 and 0x7f?
[10:05] <Healot> s|k: , see its dependencies... if any conflict occurs, it might break some existing installation
[10:06] <s|k> okay
[10:07] <hollywood> healot: so will ndiswrapper automatically work or do I need to use it to install driver?
[10:07] <intelikey> !ndiswrapper
[10:07] <ubotu> I heard ndiswrapper is a way to support Windows wireless drivers, but it is buggy compared to native support. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[10:07] <Healot> no... it really depends on your driver... not all Windows XP drivers is compatible with ndiswrapper
[10:08] <Healot> buggy, i would say
[10:09] <pvd2006> Where are the apache binaries on ubuntu?
[10:09] <hollywood> well i give up for the night
[10:09] <malv> so when was drake delayed till?
[10:09] <pvd2006> I didnt find much on the forums
[10:09] <hollywood> exit
[10:09] <yorkensen> I'm requested to introduce the ubuntu cdrom when trying to install samba with apt. Any solution?
[10:10] <chuckyp> yorkensen, comment out the cdrom in yoru /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:10] <zouse> hola
[10:10] <chuckyp> yorkensen, should be the 1st. or second cdrom
[10:10] <chuckyp> !es
[10:10] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[10:10] <chuckyp> pvd2006, apache2
[10:11] <Frogzoo> intelikey: apt-cache search viewer |grep image            xpaint looks like a maybe
[10:11] <chuckyp> pvd2006, so sudo apt-get install apache2
[10:11] <stewski> hello people can someone help me with how to check my current version of ubuntu
[10:11] <Frogzoo> stewski: cat /etc/issue
[10:11] <stewski> I installed dapper flight 3
[10:11] <yorkensen> thanks chuckyp
[10:11] <pvd2006> chuckyp , E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[10:12] <pvd2006> open
[10:12] <chuckyp> pvd2006, if you have synaptic open you need to close it to do apt-get via terminal
[10:12] <intelikey> good call Frogzoo
[10:12] <Frogzoo> intelikey: hope it works for you - gl :)
[10:12] <intelikey> ty
[10:12] <chuckyp> pvd2006, or you can just search in synaptic for apach2
[10:12] <chuckyp> pvd2006, s/apach2/apache2
[10:12] <stewski> cheers Frogzoo is there a way I can see if my dist has been upgraded to flight 5?
[10:12] <pvd2006> chuckyp, I have already done that. I installed apache 2 through synaptic and cant find where all the files for apache are.
[10:13] <chuckyp> stewski, if you apt-get update then apt-get dist-upgrade you will be up to current
[10:13] <foxpaul> any ideas how I can check the datestamp on a lot of files?
[10:13] <chuckyp> pvd2006, ohh okay
[10:13] <pvd2006> Ive been looking at the apache documents for 2.0 but it isnt helping me actually locate the files:-\
[10:13] <omeg> Why is there a shutdown icon on the top-right part of the screen in 6.04 Alpha 5?
[10:13] <chuckyp> pvd2006, well you can type which apache to find the binarary file but I'm guessing you are probably looking for the config whihc should be under /etc/http or /etc/apache somewhere.
[10:13] <omeg> That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen.
[10:14] <stewski> yeah run that earlier chuckyp I'd like to be able to confirm that its up to flight 5
[10:14] <yorkensen> could I start a remote X session to a server that can not run X (but is installed)?
[10:14] <chuckyp> omeg, just right click and remove it.
[10:14] <stewski> as it didnt seem to dowload much
[10:14] <chuckyp> stewski, it is then
[10:14] <omeg> chuckyp: that is not an excuse.
[10:14] <omeg> Of course you can say "but you can remove it!"
[10:14] <omeg> It's still stupid that apparently someone thinks it's useful enough to have as default setup.
[10:14] <stewski> so there is no way to confirm the version?
[10:15] <chuckyp> omeg, I use it.
[10:15] <stewski> uname?
[10:15] <pvd2006> i typed in which apache to find it, didnt list anything though, just went back to the command prompt
[10:15] <omeg> It's totally insane. Why would you want an icon that you only use once per session in the top-right of the screen? What if you try to close a maximized window and accidentally miss the icon?
[10:15] <chuckyp> stewski, not really the only theing they are changin is the pakcages.  fi you do a dist-upgrade every so often you will have current packages.
[10:15] <omeg> Then you'll get the shutdown notification and the black screen and you'll have to click cancel.
[10:15] <omeg> It is seriously the most stupid and counterproductive thing I have ever seen in an operating system.
[10:16] <stewski> odd I was under the impression there was a new theme under flight 5
[10:16] <chuckyp> omeg, I like I because I switch users a lot.
[10:16] <chuckyp> stewski, human theme
[10:16] <stewski> orange title bars and stuff
[10:16] <chuckyp> stewski, yeah
[10:16] <stewski> not seeing any
[10:16] <omeg> What about what I just said? What if you do try to close a maximized window and miss? And what if you _don't_ switch users a lot, which a lot of people won't do?
[10:16] <omeg> And why put it in such a hugely prominent place?
[10:16] <MistaED> hey does anyone know if ubuntu will support EFI pc's? like for the mactels? i know it's possible with hackery but yeah, will the x86 disc have that in-built?
[10:16] <chuckyp> omeg, then those people just right click and remove it.
[10:17] <jossh> pagadian city
[10:17] <chuckyp> omeg, so you click on the clock all the time then?
[10:17] <omeg> chuckyp: what is your reason for putting the interests of people who do use it first, when they're blatantly obviously the minority?
[10:17] <SpComb> why not have thojse that do want it right click and add it? Sounds rather silly to me too
[10:17] <chuckyp> omeg, please stay on topic
[10:17] <SpComb> hmm
[10:17] <pvd2006> alright I found apache2 binary, but now when I try to run it it says address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address, no listening sockets available, shutting down
[10:17] <omeg> This is the topic, chuckyp.
[10:18] <omeg> I think it's ridiculous that you put an icon there because it's incredibly inconvenient to the large majority.
[10:18] <chuckyp> pvd2006, because you don't start apache that way
[10:18] <Frogzoo> yorkensen: ssh
[10:18] <stewski> also my about gnome shows 2.13.4
[10:18] <chuckyp> pvd2006, you need to read some docs perhaps the wiki would be a good start.
[10:18] <s_spiff> hey..is there nothing better than amule for p2p sharing?
[10:18] <omeg> And I think it's ridiculous you're even trying to defend such a badly positioned icon. Pretty much everybody besides a few hardcore user switchers are never going to want it there.
[10:18] <stewski> so much for dist up and assume its done :-)
[10:18] <s_spiff> xmule* sorry
[10:18] <Frogzoo> !tell s_spiff about frostwire
[10:18] <s_spiff> thnx
[10:19] <chuckyp> omeg, please stay on topic or move the discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:19] <chuckyp> s_spiff, well you have the gnutella/limewire crowd
[10:19] <jossh> ako raman is aoi
[10:19] <s_spiff> Frogzoo, is it by any chance there on the repos?
[10:19] <jossh> mingaw man
[10:19] <chuckyp> s_spiff, dc++ etc... there are tons
[10:19] <omeg> chuckyp: so in other words, you are unable to respond to my allegations and simply tell me to fuck off.
[10:19] <jossh> asa naman mo
[10:19] <pvd2006> chucky p, the Ubuntu wiki?
[10:19] <omeg> I'll do so. Goodbye.
[10:19] <s_spiff> chuckyp, i got dc++..but too slow...i wanted something better
[10:19] <chuckyp> omeg, not in here i'm not goign to respond
[10:19] <stewski> OK anythoughts on why my dist-upgrade might not be getting everything it should
[10:19] <Frogzoo> s_spiff: nope, soz - but there is a deb @ sourceforge
[10:20] <stewski> my flight 3 install had a repos bugg
[10:20] <s_spiff> ok
[10:20] <glick> god the xgl demo video makes me so damn horney!

[10:23] <intelikey> from the man page Frogzoo  "nd  supports  various  formats, including PPM, XBM, TIFF, JPEG, etc "  but the 'etc' doesn't seem to mean bmp   thanks for the help tho.  that is a light weight app. and i will be using it.    hehhe just not for bmp files.
[10:23] <chuckyp> !ask
[10:23] <cheti12> !ask
[10:23] <chuckyp> !helpme
[10:23] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[10:24] <cheti12> ah .. i learn the ancient ways :) so i get past all the live dvd loading and it gets stuck saying xserver failed
[10:24] <chuckyp> cheti12, what type of video card?
[10:25] <cheti12> nvidia fx 5500 256mb pci
[10:25] <chuckyp> hrm...
[10:25] <chuckyp> cheti12, do you get any kind of errors?
[10:25] <cheti12> *please dont say not supported
[10:26] <stewski> thats more like it cheers for the link to a non nackered sources.list
[10:26] <chuckyp> cheti12, no nvidia cards are greatly supported under linux thats why I said hrm...
[10:26] <cheti12> its not a bad card.. it gets its ass whipped through pci bandwidths but it works well
[10:26] <ziombka> hello
[10:26] <cheti12> yeah thats waht i thought i read
[10:26] <ziombka> somebody know which package have limit program?
[10:26] <chuckyp> cheti12, are you getting any errors?
[10:26] <beeswax> is it possible to use umask=000,uid=1000 in fstab?
[10:26] <ziombka> to limit memory useing
[10:27] <stewski> I know this isnt specific to xgl irc but anyone got a smooth xgl on an nforce2 setup?
[10:27] <ziombka> somebody know?
[10:27] <chuckyp> stewski, I don't have any problems with xgl
[10:27] <beeswax> any idea? umask=000,uid=1000?
[10:28] <AshyIsMe> where the hell does ubuntu put grub.conf?
[10:28] <ziombka> Somebody know!?!?
[10:28] <cheti12> yeah i get a screen which says x server failed  and in ()'s it says something about my praphic initialisation... and then offers to show me 1179 items
[10:28] <chuckyp> ziombka, ziombka try to search wth apt-cache search
[10:28] <cheti12> to which i say yes and get dwoned in a scrolling list
[10:28] <foxpaul> can anyone remember the command I need to run so that a network interface has two ip's? i need to have a machine which reponds to both
[10:28] <chuckyp> AshyIsMe, /boot/grub/
[10:28] <stewski> cool chuckyp Im running on nforce2 integrated geforce mx4 type thing (a shuttle xpc) is it likely to be man enough?
[10:29] <AshyIsMe> chuckyp: there's no grub.conf in there
[10:29] <AshyIsMe> there's some other stuff
[10:29] <chuckyp> stewski, I'm running 3gig p4 with 1gig ram and geforce 6200 no problems no performance hit.
[10:29] <sp3ed> whats the difference betwen a kernal module and a program? =S
[10:29] <glick> man that novell xgl demo video is like porn to me
[10:29] <intelikey> AshyIsMe it doesn't use one.
[10:29] <chuckyp> stewski, its using mostly your video card.
[10:29] <chuckyp> !tell AshyIsMe about grub
[10:29] <stewski> yeah your 6200 is way above mx4 integrated though
[10:29] <ziombka> chuckyp, its give mi a lot of results
[10:30] <intelikey> AshyIsMe you are thinking of gentoo's grub.
[10:30] <chuckyp> sp3ed, kernel modules you can kind of think them as drivers.
[10:30] <cheti12> so chuckyp .. any ideas?
[10:30] <AshyIsMe> oh
[10:30] <chuckyp> stewski, it should be fine.  As long as it supports opengl  hey can't hurt to try it.  Its not hard to remove
[10:30] <intelikey> AshyIsMe what are you trying to accomplish ?
[10:30] <chuckyp> !xgl
[10:30] <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/
[10:30] <AshyIsMe> intelikey: dual boot ubuntu with windows
[10:31] <AshyIsMe> i just copied a windows image to a partition
[10:31] <sp3ed> chuckyp: yeh, anything else? you know if there is any difference betewn loading and "installing" a kernal module?
[10:31] <chuckyp> cheti12, I'm not sure should be working.  If you have the system up beside you I could help you tinker and try to get in.   Which live cd are you trying to run?
[10:31] <stewski> thankx chuckyp will give it a go, any issues with running TV cards or DVDs through it?
[10:31] <cheti12> the live dvd actually
[10:31] <chuckyp> sp3ed, well you can unload and load kernel modules.  if thats what you are asking.
[10:31] <intelikey> AshyIsMe you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst according to this wiki
[10:31] <cheti12> just dl'ed it off the site so im assuming its the latest
[10:31] <intelikey> !boot
[10:31] <ubotu> intelikey: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:31] <intelikey> not that one.
[10:32] <chuckyp> cheti12, did it say breezy
[10:32] <cheti12> yes it did
[10:32] <cheti12> breezy abdger methinks
[10:32] <intelikey> !dualboot
[10:32] <ubotu> dualboot is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo
[10:32] <intelikey> there ^
[10:32] <AshyIsMe> intelikey: thanks
[10:32] <intelikey> np
[10:32] <chuckyp> cheti12, do you have the system up near you or is it the one you are chatting on
[10:33] <cheti12> am afraid its the one im cahtting on
[10:33] <beeswax> guys, how can i mount a partition rw for the user? (not for root only)
[10:33] <AshyIsMe> heh, it says to install windows first
[10:33] <yorkensen> Frogzoo: thanks. ssh -X permits to run an X program on a terminal session. I meant to run a remote desktop X session. Maybe it's a stupid question...
[10:33] <cheti12> aww man.. ive been wanting to try out linux for years now.. and am not even in the computer field..
[10:34] <cheti12> and now after all the trouble of downloading 3 gigs, my damn video card.. aaargh .. i would stick somethign up its rear end but its tiny pci bandwidth wont even let me
[10:35] <chuckyp> cheti12, well what you can do on it is ctrl+alt+f2 to get to a terminal when x fails then type in sudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf  change the line for your display adapter from nv to vesa  save the file.  Then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart and you should be able to get in x
[10:35] <YogSothoth> Hi!
[10:35] <chuckyp> cheti12, isn't it pci express?
[10:35] <Frogzoo> yorkensen: xdmcp ?
[10:36] <cheti12> nope im afraid tis .. umm.. embarassing .. but ..just pci
[10:36] <mind_rot> i need some help with my laptop ati device, i have followed the "how-to" in the forums step by step, but my opengl is still extremely slow and i still get mesa
[10:36] <stewski> sound juicers pretty slow
[10:37] <stewski> no rip and play (which is a shame) anyone tried joobox?
[10:37] <chuckyp> cheti12, that or try some of the options from the live cd's boot menu I believe you hit f1 and f2 for options.  See what options you have for display
[10:37] <YogSothoth> My user in "john". My group is "john" but I'm also part of the group "www-data". I want to chmod files that are owned by "www-data:www-data". The permissions on the file are "-rw-rw-rw-". I though I could be able to chmod it because I'm part of the group and the permissions gives write access to group member. But I've got "Permission denied". Why?
[10:38] <Tomcat_> YogSothoth: No you can only change rights for files you own.
[10:38] <intelikey> beeswax umask=0  if it is vfat.   use chmod on the mount point if it is ext#
[10:38] <cheti12> ok chuckyp wrote that down .. will give it a shot and head back here if i cant get it o work
[10:38] <cheti12> you ll be around?
[10:38] <chuckyp> YogSothoth, sudo chmdo <user>:<owner>  <fileordirectory>
[10:38] <YogSothoth> Tomcat_: really? So I have to sudo?
[10:38] <Tomcat_> YogSothoth: So for files owned by www-data, you have to be root or www-data to change the permissions.
[10:39] <chuckyp> cheti12, yeah to get nano to save just ctrl+x it will prompt you before youexit.
[10:39] <Tomcat_> YogSothoth: Exactly.
[10:39] <beeswax> intelikey: so u mean i can use chmod in fstab?
[10:39] <cheti12> ok done
[10:39] <cheti12> brb
[10:39] <intelikey> beeswax no  mount it normally and   sudo chmod 777 <it's mount point>
[10:40] <YogSothoth> Okay but what if on my server I use "john" to ssh but the files I have to regulary work on have to be owned by "www-data" so the webserver is happy?
[10:40] <beeswax> aight.
[10:40] <beeswax> :)
[10:40] <intelikey> beeswax you did note that that is for linux partitions.  not M$ partitions.
[10:40] <glick> excuse me how do i setup disk quotas for users?
[10:40] <chuckyp> !quota
[10:40] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, chuckyp
[10:41] <beeswax> it is for ext3. but it sucks to always do chmod after reboot.
[10:41] <Mind-Rot>  i need some help with my laptop ati device, i have followed the "how-to" in the forums step by step, but my opengl is still extremely slow and i still get mesa when i run fglrxinfo
[10:41] <YogSothoth> Isn't it a security hole to use "www-data" as a shell login user instead of a system user ?
[10:41] <intelikey> beeswax you wont need to chmod but one time.
[10:41] <Tomcat_> YogSothoth: That's a problem I have myself and I haven't found a way to work around it.
[10:41] <beeswax> ok, i'll try that. thx
[10:41] <Tomcat_> YogSothoth: I suggest keeping them seperate.
[10:42] <Jhair> Mind-Rot: which card
[10:42] <chuckyp> YogSothoth, yes
[10:42] <Tomcat_> YogSothoth: In my case, it's the problem that users on my server want both SSH access to their files, plus WebDAV access. WebDAV files have to be owned by www-data... so users can't do anything with those.
[10:42] <Mind-Rot> ATI Technologies Inc Radeon IGP 340
[10:43] <pvd2006> What is a command to find SPECIFIC sub-directoy if you dont know the main directory its in.
[10:43] <Tomcat_> YogSothoth: Or rather, there are solution to some of those problems, but it usually makes it worse. I haven't found any easy solution that would solve all the problems at once.
[10:43] <Mind-Rot> ATI Technologies Inc Radeon IGP 340M to be precise
[10:43] <chuckyp> pvd2006, find
[10:43] <Frogzoo> which pkg for dos2unix ?
[10:43] <intelikey> pvd2006 find
[10:43] <Jhair> Frogzoo: packages.ubuntu.com
[10:43] <chuckyp> pvd2006, or you can use locate
[10:43] <Frogzoo> Jhair: which package though?
[10:43] <dockane> hi all ... i am affected by the following bug (with breezy on a x86) : https://launchpad.net/products/update-notifier . is there any solution except rebooting or killing update notifier i missed in launchpad ?
[10:44] <thegladiator> using command line hwo can I find the total data transfered (network) in this session ?
[10:44] <dockane> https://launchpad.net/products/update-notifier
[10:44] <chuckyp> Frogzoo, tofrodos ?

[10:45] <YogSothoth> Thank you Tomcat, you confirmed this is messy :-)
[10:45] <Frogzoo> Jhair: chuckyp much obliged - thanks
[10:45] <beeswax> intelikey: well, now i can write in that disks subfolders, but not on mount point itself... :) what to do?
[10:45] <Jhair> Mind-Rot: you have the latest propietary drivers, haven't you?
[10:46] <thegladiator> hwo do I run network-monitor from the terminal ?
[10:46] <beeswax> i did: sudo chmod -R 777 /media/data/
[10:46] <intelikey> beeswax what exact command did you run ?
[10:46] <intelikey> ok
[10:46] <intelikey> and you can't write to /media/data/ ?
[10:47] <Mind-Rot> Jhair: yes, i do.
[10:47] <chuckyp> thegladiator, I dunno man network-monitor
[10:47] <beeswax> well, there's standart folder lost+found. i can write inside of that, but nowhere else
[10:47] <Trynemjoel> I got some problem getting sound on my .avi movie, anyone know what codec i need and where to get it? Soundcard is fine, just to say the up front :)
[10:47] <thegladiator> chuckyp, no , in the gnome panel you can add "network monitor" to the panel , the same thing i want to run from the terminal
[10:48] <chuckyp> !tell Trynemjoel about restricted
[10:48] <Jhair> Trynemjoel: totem?
[10:48] <intelikey> beeswax try  sudo chmod -R 777 /media/data    leave the last  / off this time
[10:48] <thegladiator> network-monitor is not the command
[10:48] <chuckyp> thegladiator, well you'd have to find a program that monitors network traffic that is terminal based.
[10:48] <beeswax> intelikey: nope..
[10:48] <beeswax> not workin either
[10:48] <fluxt> why was /mnt changed to /media .. is this a new standard (LSB) or just an ubuntu thing?
[10:48] <thegladiator> chuckyp, its alerady there , network monitor , but I dont know the command line for that
[10:48] <intelikey> really ?
[10:48] <zerokarmaleft> thegladiator: if you just want information on how much data has been transferred, use ifconfig
[10:49] <thegladiator> yeah let me try that thanks
[10:49] <chuckyp> thegladiator, oh you want to launch the applet from terminaL?
[10:49] <beeswax> jep
[10:49] <intelikey> beeswax syow me what    ls -l /media/data     returns please
[10:49] <thegladiator> chuckyp, yeah :)
[10:49] <intelikey> show
[10:50] <beeswax> intelikey: drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 16384 2006-03-15 10:45 lost+found
[10:50] <chuckyp> thegladiator, hrm.. you'd probably have to ps aux | grep for the name of it but i'm not sure how the applets work if they even have a way that they can be launched
[10:50] <beeswax> should work...
[10:50] <pvd2006> OK so now I have apache2 installed and I restricted it to localhost so I can only access it. now I want to run some cgi scripts on it. Im not sure exactly where to create them though. Is there a file where you can find out where that is at?
[10:50] <beeswax> but doesn't
[10:50] <beeswax> i'm gonna reboot, maybe it works afterwards.
[10:50] <thegladiator> thanks chuckyp i'll have a go at it
[10:50] <intelikey> beeswax you already said you could write to  lost+found
[10:50] <beeswax> yes
[10:51] <intelikey> show me the command that you just typed ?
[10:51] <beeswax> ls -l /media/data
[10:51] <chuckyp> thegladiator, have it running then do a ps aux | grep applet  I bet it will be callce like network-applet or something similiar
[10:51] <thegladiator> yep
[10:51] <beeswax> intelikey: lol, u know what, i can mkdir manually out of console, but not with gnome
[10:52] <beeswax> funny... i guess a reboot will solve the problem
[10:52] <chuckyp> thegladiator, it looks like most of them are in /usr/lib/gnome-applets/
[10:52] <intelikey> just restarting x should do beeswax
[10:52] <intelikey> ctrl+alt+backspace
[10:52] <thegladiator> yes got it thanks chuckyp . its called gnome-netstatus-applet !
[10:52] <thegladiator> :-)
[10:52] <chuckyp> thegladiator, np
[10:54] <glick> excuse me is there any way i can get a root shell?
[10:54] <glick> on my machine
[10:54] <beeswax> intelikey: i'ts workin' now. thx a lot
[10:54] <thegladiator> glick, sudo
[10:54] <thegladiator> ubotu, tell glick about sudo
[10:54] <glick> thegladiator, i know about sudo
[10:54] <intelikey> but that's not conforming to posix standards.   ls -l /media/data   should return the results of data  not it's contents.  that looks like a bug to me.     what system you running beeswax ?
[10:54] <glick> but i need to have root priviledges for a time and dont wanna type sudo every 2 seconds
[10:54] <beeswax> dapper flight 5
[10:54] <FatalCure> glick, 'sudo -i' in the normal shell
[10:54] <AshyIsMe> glick: change the password with passwd
[10:55] <chuckyp> glick, sudo -s
[10:55] <intelikey> you should report that.
[10:55] <beeswax> how?
[10:55] <beeswax> with that bug-report-tool?
[10:55] <intelikey> beeswax you should report that.  yes
[10:55] <beeswax> oki doki. i will
[10:55] <sp3ed> is .ko a loadable kernal module?
[10:56] <intelikey> should be sp3ed
[10:56] <chuckyp> intelikey, what are you talking about it will return the contents of hte folder
[10:56] <intelikey> chuckyp yes.   it should return the folder not the contents tho.
[10:56] <glick> excuse me
[10:57] <glick> for some reason w and who
[10:57] <glick> doesnt show who is logged on to my machine
[10:57] <chuckyp> intelikey, oh I see what you are saying.
[10:57] <beeswax> ls -l /media/data should return data's permissions and not it's subfolders. otherwise you should run ls -l /media/data/
[10:57] <chuckyp> beeswax, yeah I just noticed that on my dapper machine
[10:57] <sp3ed> what is the way yo auto load kernel moduels on boot?
[10:58] <beeswax> jup.
[10:58] <intelikey> sp3ed add them to /etc/modules
[10:58] <beeswax> u have any idea where they put this bug-report tool?
[10:58] <cheti12> hey chuckyp you there?
[10:58] <FatalCure> how about 'ls -ld /media/data' ?
[10:58] <sp3ed> intelikey: to the folder? are they aotu loaded then? =S

[10:59] <intelikey> sp3ed /etc/modules  should be a file.   not a folder.
[10:59] <chuckyp> FatalCure, that works
[10:59] <intelikey> sp3ed /etc/modules.d  is the folder    right ?
[10:59] <fluxt> what does /etc stand for?
[10:59] <glick> sp3ed, nope users doesnt work either
[11:00] <glick> it only shoes me
[11:00] <glick> it only shows me
[11:00] <chuckyp> intelikey, did you copy ls -ld works fine
[11:00] <cheti12> ok so i tried again .. the exact error message im getting form the live dvd of breezy is "Failed to start the x server. It is likely that it is not setup correctly."
[11:00] <intelikey> yes chuckyp
[11:00] <chuckyp> beeswax, you reporting it?
[11:00] <intelikey> so the code in ls may be the cause.
[11:01] <cheti12> and then it immediatley goes into command line mode where i am not able to execute the sudo command line ata ll..
[11:01] <sp3ed> intelikey: oh, i se. you know if its the same for "all" dists? and do i only have to put the name of something i have loaded there? not the hole path?
[11:01] <AshyIsMe> do i need to run grub or something after updating menu.lst?
[11:01] <cheti12> it says im at ubuntu@ubuntu level
[11:01] <pvd2006> ok so now I see apache2_default/ on my webserver, not sure exactly where to place HTML/cgi files to get them to show up on the server
[11:01] <Jhair> bug in coreutils? I doubt it
[11:01] <AshyIsMe> i'm used to slackware where you have to run lilo after changing lilo.conf
[11:01] <FatalCure> AshyIsMe, no
[11:01] <chuckyp> intelikey, no its right the way it is ls lists direcotry contents
[11:01] <AshyIsMe> cool
[11:01] <beeswax> chuckyp: yes, but reportbug asks me in which package i found the bug. what should i write?
[11:01] <intelikey> sp3ed yes just the name of the module as it appears in lsmod
[11:01] <sp3ed> intelikey: thanks
[11:02] <glick> could it be that my shit has been rooted?
[11:02] <Jhair> that's no bug
[11:02] <chuckyp> beeswax, yeah its not a bug
[11:02] <suppaman> hello
[11:02] <chuckyp> intelikey, its not a bug
[11:02] <beeswax> allright. if you're sure.
[11:02] <intelikey> chuckyp so it's coded to do that
[11:02] <Jhair> yes, I am sure
[11:02] <intelikey> didn't used to be.
[11:02] <glick> does anyone know why it would be doing that?
[11:03] <suppaman> I can't mount my samba share anymore
[11:03] <chuckyp> intelikey, ls lists directory contents  you would have to provide the -d switch now to show directories.  But youc an ask around in #ubuntu+1 but  I don't think its a bug.
[11:03] <suppaman> yesterday I could
[11:03] <Xenguy> glick: what is wrong with the output you see for 'w' ?
[11:03] <suppaman> shouldn't "Resources->Connect to server" prompt for a password when needed?
[11:03] <glick> Xenguy, my friend is currently logged in via ssh and i do not see him
[11:03] <intelikey> glick what is it doing.         chuckyp ok.
[11:03] <fluxt> !etc
[11:04] <ubotu> fluxt: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:04] <glick> intelikey, , my friend is currently logged in via ssh and i do not see him
[11:04] <chuckyp> glick, what are the results of w
[11:04] <glick>  05:04:44 up 3 days,  8:59,  2 users,  load average: 0.06, 0.33, 0.54

[11:04] <intelikey> glick eeek  that's not good.    ps -A x | grep ssh
[11:05] <glick> intelikey, what could that mean?
[11:05] <Xenguy> !tell glick about paste
[11:05] <Xenguy> !tell chuckyp about paste
[11:05] <chuckyp> glick, make sure he's actually logged in to your account
[11:05] <chuckyp> Xenguy, I know about paste don't tell me
[11:05] <glick> chuckyp,  intelikey yup i see him, he is there
[11:05] <glick> with the grep command
[11:05] <Xenguy> chuckyp: then suggest pastebin perhaps?
[11:05] <chuckyp> glick, okay then whats the problem?
[11:06] <glick> chuckyp, umm the w command doesnt show him
[11:06] <chuckyp> glick, ahh who doens't show him
[11:06] <glick> who doesnt either
[11:06] <chuckyp> Xenguy, I didn't paste anything
[11:06] <cheti12> hey everyone.. having some xserver trounbles here.. anyone free to help?
[11:06] <glick> neither does users
[11:06] <chuckyp> glick, hrm....  Are you sure he's logged in to your box and is /var/run/utmp present?
[11:06] <Xenguy> chuckyp: you asked for output, and it was pasted to the channel; hence my response; that is all :-)
[11:07] <chuckyp> Xenguy, I didn't paste it why would you tell me how to use pastebini?
[11:07] <glick> chuckyp, of course im sure, im not an idiot
[11:07] <Xenguy> glick: w and who should show all users :-/
[11:07] <chuckyp> glick, is /var/run/utmp there?
[11:07] <glick> yup the file is there
[11:07] <intelikey> glick  i don't know what is causing it, but if it happens here i'll kill sshd post haste.
[11:07] <Xenguy> chuckyp: nm
[11:07] <FatalCure> cheti12, just ask, if someone can help they'll chime in
[11:08] <glick> intelikey, when i ssh into my friends machine and type w
[11:08] <chuckyp> cheti12, did work I take it?
[11:08] <glick> i see it normally
[11:08] <glick> he is running ubuntu too
[11:08] <glick> same version
[11:08] <glick> kubuntu actually
[11:08] <cheti12> chuckyp.. nope it didnt
[11:08] <Xenguy> glick: if it were me, I would run 'chkrootkit' and 'rkhunter' just to be on the safe side
[11:08] <glick> but even if he sshs into my machine and types w, he doesnt even see himself
[11:09] <chuckyp> glick, yeah who works on my machine.  I dunno glick the logged in users are stored in /var/run/utmp you can try rebooting maybe?
[11:09] <cheti12> chuckyp -  the exact error message im getting form the live dvd of breezy is "Failed to start the x server. It is likely that it is not setup correctly."
[11:09] <intelikey> hah   uptime here reports  0 users,   that aint right.
[11:09] <glick> cckrootkit?
[11:09] <glick> and rkhunter?
[11:09] <chuckyp> cheti12, were you able to save the xorg.conf with the vesa line in there?
[11:09] <Xenguy> glick: no, chkrootkit
[11:09] <cheti12> and then it immediatley goes into command line mode where i am not able to execute the sudo command line at all..  it says im at ubuntu@ubuntu level
[11:10] <intelikey> who -a returns nothing....
[11:10] <cheti12> ctrl alt f2 didtn do anythign
[11:10] <pvd2006> now that I have apache server isntalled I can just upload a .cgi file to my web server via ftp and it should work right?
[11:10] <Xenguy> glick: 2 programs that scan your system for security breaches (it's just a precaution, don't panic yet :-)
[11:10] <intelikey> and i'm hitting these things as root
[11:10] <glick> who -a doesnt show anything either
[11:10] <glick> just myself
[11:10] <aroticoz> can you recommend me a program to write on a NTFS partition?
[11:10] <chuckyp> cheti12, ahh yes, perhaps someone who has spent more time with live cds can help.  I've never run the live cd.  But i'll google around hold up.
[11:11] <chuckyp> aroticoz, you don't
[11:11] <cheti12> i tried entering the command line you gave me at the ubuntu@ ubuntu directory level.. but it said the path is invalid or some sucht hing
[11:11] <cheti12> thanks a ton!
[11:11] <chuckyp> aroticoz, ntfs writing is not a good idea
[11:11] <intelikey> aroticoz windows xp
[11:11] <aroticoz> ...
[11:11] <aroticoz> they told me here a couple of days ago
[11:11] <aroticoz> that with a program I can write on the ntfs partition
[11:11] <glick> Xenguy, is it hard to use chkrootkit?
[11:11] <FatalCure> !captive
[11:11] <ubotu> well, captive is a project to use windows NTFS drivers under linux. It does not work properly with Ubuntu.
[11:12] <intelikey> you can,  but you may hose the filesystem.
[11:12] <Xenguy> glick: no, very straightforward
[11:12] <glick> Xenguy, just runn it?
[11:12] <Xenguy> glick: just: sudo chkrootkit |less
[11:12] <farous> how are you all :)
[11:12] <intelikey> glick na it's simple.   but it really needs to be run on the system while you know it's clear, then peirodicly
[11:13] <wahlau> anyone here free to start his system monitor?
[11:13] <Xenguy> glick: I also recommend 'rkhunter' e.g.:  sudo rkhunter -c
[11:13] <intelikey> cause it may return a false caution comment and if you are not sure that your system is clean you will never know.
[11:13] <St_Iron> hi
[11:13] <farous> wahlau: ?
[11:13] <chuckyp> cheti12, yeah i've found other people who have the same problem with the nvidia 5200 pci

[11:15] <ormvegr> are you on a 64bit system
[11:15] <intelikey> murtun b-e

[11:15] <FatalCure> rossiel, please stop
[11:15] <Xenguy> rossiel is repeating
[11:15] <Seveas> Xenguy, not anymore ;)
[11:16] <Xenguy> Seveas: indeed; the buffer is my evidence
[11:16] <murtun> does Ubuntu not come with C libraries?
[11:16] <intelikey> !b-e
[11:16] <ubotu> from memory, b-e is no make ?  you need build-essential or if you get errors saying gcc cannot create executables, or that you can't find header files like stdio.h, you need to do a    sudo apt-get install build-essential.
[11:16] <cheti12> hey everyone.. i would like to know what the second best live cd/dvd around is ? i tried ubuntu and it didnt work for me..
[11:16] <intelikey> murtun ^
[11:16] <glick> i cant find rkhunter in the ropos
[11:16] <farous> murtun: install build-essential
[11:16] <Seveas> cheti12, what was the problem?
[11:16] <cheti12> xserver failed to start
[11:16] <rossiel> hi emile_
[11:16] <rossiel> ^_^
[11:16] <murtun> apt-get install build-essiential?

[11:16] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[11:17] <Seveas> cheti12, you could try knoppix
[11:17] <rossiel> hi everyone
[11:17] <Xenguy> glick: you will need 'universe' and/or 'multiverse' enabled for that one perhaps
[11:17] <murtun> Will that get all my stdio.h ect?
[11:17] <cheti12> and no access to ctrl alt f2 following the error message
[11:17] <farous> murtun: exactly also try anjuta as a develpment ide
[11:17] <intelikey> l?
[11:17] <rossiel> ^_^
[11:17] <rossiel> hi emile_
[11:17] <glick> Xenguy, i do have them both enabled
[11:17] <murtun> I like pico + gcc ty :P
[11:17] <rossiel> hi everyone
[11:17] <farous> :)
[11:17] <FatalCure> murtun, yes, prepend a 'sudo' though
[11:17] <intelikey> murtun   sudo apt-get install build-essiential
[11:17] <murtun> of course :0
[11:17] <cheti12> is the knoppix 5 something live dvd out yet?
[11:17] <murtun> cheersw
[11:18] <murtun> cya guys l8eer :D
[11:18] <wahlau> can anyone else check their top
[11:18] <cheti12> i heard they handed out pressed dvds at cebit but wondering if their in torrent country yet
[11:18] <wahlau> i have 561m virtual memory just 5 minutes after start
[11:18] <wahlau> :(
[11:18] <wahlau> intelikey: well, top :)
[11:18] <Xenguy> glick: yer right - I don't see rkhunter now either
[11:18] <glick> i dont get why my "w" commands would be screwed up
[11:19] <Xenguy> glick: I believe it was in the archives at one point (I have it on my system)
[11:19] <intelikey> atoponce_away: error while loading shared libraries: libproc.so.2.0.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory    <---  wahlau
[11:19] <Xenguy> glick: is this breezy BTW?
[11:19] <glick> but chkrootkit found nothing
[11:19] <glick> yeah its breezy
[11:19] <intelikey> that's what my top says
[11:19] <farous> glick: strange i had the same prob recently after reboot it was working but never knew why it was screwed
[11:19] <wahlau> huh?
[11:19] <cheti12> is knoppix fairly easier for total comp n00bs ?
[11:19] <intelikey> but i'm not going to fix it, i never use top anyway
[11:20] <weedar> Anyone know what I can check if my gateway doesn't work correctly except iptables? I'm able to ping the Internet, but replies stop at the gateway, not reaching it's originating computer
[11:20] <glick> farous, hmm it may be a bug in breezy that the developers should be aware of?
[11:20] <farous> glick: in my case w, who were both screwed
[11:20] <glick> farous, yeah same here
[11:20] <farous> they reported no users
[11:20] <chuckyp> cheti12, yeah if you just edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change it to "nv" in the device section it should work.
[11:21] <chuckyp> cheti12, here is a long post with someone with your exact problem http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-79827.html
[11:21] <cheti12> ah bless you will check it out right away
[11:21] <cheti12> thanks a ton
[11:21] <chuckyp> cheti12, keep in mind that the live cd was kind of a firts run for ubuntu and its not really up to par with other distros but it can be made working if you read that forum.  All the guy did was change xorg.conf
[11:21] <stewski> Ive got an odd question
[11:22] <farous> glick: is there a log we could check. I just tried to find any but did not know where it would be reported
[11:22] <intelikey> my   'w'   returns  no one.  not even me.    and who just returns to the prompt.
[11:22] <chuckyp> cheti12, problem being that after restarting you would have to change the line again.
[11:22] <farous> intelikey: i glick and me had the same problem too
[11:22] <stewski> is the current gnome trash waste basket the only equivalent unedrlinux (it seems very primative)
[11:23] <intelikey> not a problem to me... if it aint working here i delete it.
[11:23] <cheti12> chuckyp, ok thanks will give it a shot and what is the best live dvd around ? i mean with th maximum devices recognised and the maximum programs?
[11:23] <intelikey> :)
[11:23] <cheti12> chuckyp, just in case this doesnt work
[11:23] <fluxt> stewski, kde probably has one too
[11:23] <farous> intelikey: in my case i prefer to know who is on my pc ;)
[11:23] <intelikey> yeah   but i use ps
[11:24] <intelikey> ps -A x | grep ssh
[11:24] <stewski> fluxt yeah I realise but are they all the same? as they dont seem to store original path info or alow for a restore?
[11:24] <glick> lol but an important system administrative program doesnt work correctly
[11:24] <glick> and you just want to ignore it?
[11:24] <intelikey> me.  i never use it anyway.
[11:24] <fluxt> stewski, well that's kinda stupid isn't it :)
[11:24] <stewski> that was the case when I used linux a Long time ago is it still the case
[11:24] <intelikey> i'm not going to ignore it.  i'm going to delete it.
[11:25] <fluxt> hmm, one could probably write a trash basket script for the console
[11:25] <wahlau> bye guys
[11:25] <farous> do not know why but xman does not work anymore here too
[11:25] <stewski> because between ubuntu / debian and gome things have improved in lots of areas Im not understanding how this can still be so weak
[11:25] <glick> i will look into this further another time
[11:25] <glick> now im too tired
[11:26] <glick> g'nite
[11:26] <farous> nite
[11:26] <stewski> well the trash appears to work (as did an alias to rm yonks ago) by moving said deleted files to a safe folder first
[11:27] <stewski> this doesnt account for dupplicate file names or restoring locations
[11:27] <intelikey> testing brb .
[11:28] <subwr> hi
[11:28] <subwr> who can help a n00b to unrar his files?

[11:29] <rixth> How can i get a list of used keycodes?
[11:29] <subwr> ?
[11:29] <bimberi> !rar
[11:29] <ubotu> rar is probably a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[11:30] <bimberi> subwr: ^^^^
[11:30] <subwr> yes
[11:30] <intelikey> hmmm nope that didn't fix it.
[11:30] <Toma-> subwr: considered tar.bz?
[11:31] <eXistenZ> what is the /opt/ folder for?
[11:31] <_mad_penguin> optional program packages
[11:31] <intelikey> i thought in my case it might be because i had deleted /sys   but i mkdir'd /sys and rebooted,  still the same.  w  and  who are worthless.

[11:34] <Jhair> bimberi: oh! ok
[11:34] <eXistenZ> Can anyone direct me to a good breezy repos.?
[11:34] <anandaputra> sorry OOT.. I want to make a company that provide FOSS conculatncy.. do you have any idea about its name? hehe.. It is really hard to me finding the name.. :D

[11:38] <GutterPunk> it constantly stops working

[11:38] <bimberi> !+dma
[11:38] <ubotu> methinks dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. A method of transferring data from one memory area to another without having to go through the central processing unit. It makes your hard disks run faster :-).  DMA from the ubuntu wiki guide https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[11:38] <fluxt> GutterPunk, also check the burn speed in the config
[11:38] <fluxt> i should do that also..
[11:38] <stewski> wiki is a great thang
[11:39] <GutterPunk> I'll check... another screwed dvd :)
[11:39] <stewski> OK I should be flight 5 after the reboot wish me luck :-)
[11:40] <pvd2006> How do you access your apache web server and put files onto it once its up and running? do you ftp into the address? I tried to ftp into it and it said connection refused.
[11:41] <fluxt> god, that was easy to enable DMA :)
[11:42] <subwr> why it cant find adept?
[11:43] <bimberi> pvd2006: that's one way, you'd need to install an ftp server.  Alternatives are to use ssh (again need to install a server) or rsync.
[11:43] <mwe> When I close the lid of my laptop it goes to sleep. That's good. But if I shut down the computer from X and then imediatly close the lid it still goes to sleep. Then when I open the lid it wakes up and completes the shutdown. How do I fix that? :|
[11:43] <gnomefreak> subwr: are you using kde/kubuntu?
[11:44] <subwr> ubuntu gnome
[11:44] <subwr> i think
[11:44] <gnomefreak> subwr: adept is a kde app iirc
[11:44] <subwr> mmm
[11:44] <GutterPunk> I enabled DMA... it should work now? I can't simulate dvd burning :/
[11:44] <flyingfrog> any hardware/laptop expert there?  I'm gonna buy a laptop and would like some advice
[11:44] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell flyingfrog about hardware
[11:45] <bimberi> subwr: use Synaptic ...
[11:45] <bimberi> !synaptic
[11:45] <ubotu> well, synaptic is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[11:45] <gnomefreak> flyingfrog: in your pm you have a list of supported hardware
[11:45] <intelikey> why is su in bin ?
[11:45] <babo> Which file system do you use ? why ?
[11:45] <gnomefreak> babo: by default its ext3
[11:46] <eXistenZ> how can I find the key id of a certain repos.?
[11:46] <rem_> anyone has a solution for this ?: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2005-November/msg00503.html
[11:46] <gnomefreak> eXistenZ: on the easysource page it tells you the keys for each repo
[11:46] <rem_> evolution asks a password to import certificates. no idea what it can be  .. ?
[11:47] <rem_> is there a default password or something .. ?
[11:47] <babo> gnomefreak: I've just had a wonderful experience with ext3 ... whereby I've lost a lot of work that I deleted by accident. I know that it has journaling, a file hash tree and resizable files ... but it's a serious pain in the ass if you happen to rm something by accident ...
[11:48] <subwr> well i updated repositories. Now wht package to install for rar files?
[11:49] <babo> gnomefreak: I type rm * .mov instead of rm *.mov ... that not only erased all my files, but also all the directories in the file ... ?
[11:49] <Frogzoo> !tell flyingfrog about hardware
[11:49] <Jhair> babo: did you really typede rm *
[11:49] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell subwr about rar
[11:49] <Jhair> s/typede/typed
[11:50] <gnomefreak> babo: what is with the *
[11:50] <babo> Jhair: I'm almost sure I did ... the drive is on ice at the moment
[11:50] <flyingfrog> anyone with nvidia Geforce go 7300 ?
[11:50] <gnomefreak> babo: safer rm /path/tofile/file
[11:50] <babo> gnomefreak: what do you mean ?
[11:50] <gnomefreak> flyingfrog: yes
[11:51] <babo> gnomefreak: safer ext2
[11:51] <babo> does reiserfs have an undelete ?
[11:51] <gnomefreak> babo: there is no such thing as a safe file system if the person is running as root in it
[11:52] <gnomefreak> if not running as root you should not beable to delete anything 'important'
[11:52] <babo> gnomefreak: hmmm ...
[11:53] <gnomefreak> brb
[11:53] <babo> gnomefreak: but when I'm running as user and I want to start up ... say ... qtorrent ... I just get a 'you need to be root' message.
[11:53] <subwr> well the bot coulldnt help me
[11:56] <eXistenZ> which is better ff or opera?
[11:56] <rem_> anyone has a solution for this ?: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2005-November/msg00503.html

[11:57] <intelikey> rem_  see !root
[11:57] <rem_> its not the root or any user password either ..
[11:57] <rem_> !root

[11:57] <rem_> i unlocked the root password ..
[11:58] <rem_> Enter the password for 'NSS User Private Key and Certificate Services'
[11:58] <gnomefreak> babo: does qtorrent delete files/folders?
[11:58] <rem_> this is what it asks .
[11:58] <rem_> hmm...maybe i need to set a passwd for that user .. ?
[11:59] <heatxsink> hello all i get this really strange error when I was updating/upgrading dapper today.....can anyone help me out?  http://pastebin.com/603241
[11:59] <gnomefreak> heatxsink: #ubuntu+1 for dapper im there i will answer you there once i look at it
[12:00] <heatxsink> join #ubuntu+1
[12:00] <heatxsink> ops
[12:00] <heatxsink> oops :-)
[12:00] <babo> gnomefreak: not that I've heard of, no
[12:00] <rem_> nope didnt work .
[12:00] <babo> gnomefreak: so you're saying that I should sudo qtorrent then ...
[12:01] <gnomefreak> babo: than i dont see what qtorrent has to do with removeing/deleteing important files/folders
[12:01] <gnomefreak> babo: yes or if its a gui app use gksudo
[12:03] <intelikey> ok this is plumb screwy.   top returns "top: error while loading shared libraries: libproc.so.2.0.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"  when ran from console.  but i can start mc and then run top and it works fine.     that aint right!
[12:03] <intelikey> also if i type top in mc it errors out but if i select the binarry it runs.
[12:04] <eXistenZ> gnomefreak, how much memory have you got
[12:06] <gnomefreak> eXistenZ: 512mb
[12:06] <DutchDude> hey folks, does anyone know if its possible to pre-order dapper CD's?

[12:23] <G0SUB> elkbuntu nope
[12:23] <G0SUB> elkbuntu I am back in Breezy now
[12:23] <Frogzoo> intelikey: locate libproc
[12:24] <elkbuntu> G0SUB, had you waited a whole minute longer, i could have shown you this page: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-driver-i810/+bug/30179
[12:25] <intelikey> no such critter Frogzoo
[12:25] <intelikey> i got a  /lib/libproc-3.2.4.so
[12:25] <G0SUB> elkbuntu heh, that's MY exact problem ...
[12:26] <elkbuntu> G0SUB, i told you to be patient
[12:26] <intelikey> Frogzoo is that what you wanted ?
[12:26] <Frogzoo> intelikey: think I have something - ldd reports libproc 3.2.4, but your error from top reports libproc2.0.7 - something's hose - run ldconfig
[12:27] <intelikey> did run it.
[12:27] <intelikey> when you said  ^  up there
[12:27] <G0SUB> elkbuntu but I won't have been able to view that page anyway ... from the console
[12:27] <intelikey> tty1 [root#~]  ldconfig
[12:27] <intelikey> tty1 [root#~] 
[12:27] <Frogzoo> intelikey: so why (rhetorical question) is the linker choosing 2.0.7? wierd
[12:27] <intelikey> idk
[12:28] <redguy|work> intelikey: you have to run it with root priviledges so it can update ld.cache
[12:28] <Frogzoo> makes 2 of us :D
[12:28] <intelikey> redguy|work so ?
[12:28] <elkbuntu> G0SUB, you could have done sudo apt-get install elinks
[12:28] <robinl1> hi
[12:28] <robinl1> :P
[12:28] <Frogzoo> intelikey: you did run 'ldconfig' with root privs, yes?
[12:29] <intelikey> see above post ^
[12:29] <Frogzoo> gotcha
 tty1 [root#~]  ldconfig
[12:29] <redguy|work> ah indeed

[12:33] <Frogzoo> robinl1: asking for a boot dude...
[12:34] <Hobbsee> gah!
[12:34] <intelikey> Frogzoo you did notice that i mentioned that it works fine if started via mc = midnight commander.
[12:34] <G0SUB> lol
[12:34] <Hobbsee> too fast Seveas!
[12:34] <Seveas> might have been a cat on the keyboard
[12:34] <Hobbsee> hehe
[12:34] <gazanfer> how can i set default applications for a filetype without using preferred actions menu?
[12:34] <elkbuntu> ask him in pm, i just wanted the spam stopped
[12:34] <redguy|work> or maybe he passed out :-)
[12:35] <G0SUB> Seveas how do I confirm a bug in LP?
[12:35] <Jhair> he passed out with his head on the numeric keyboard...
[12:35] <robinl1> damn - shouldn't have leaned on my numpad
[12:35] <Seveas> G0SUB, click on the task, set status to confirmed, click save
[12:35] <intelikey> reinstalling bash.  let me see if that changes anything.
[12:35] <elkbuntu> rofl
[12:35] <G0SUB> ok
[12:36] <javiolo> how do I change the channel windows in irssi instead of using /window
[12:36] <robinl1> see, my mouse is next to the numpad and i used my left hand for a right-handed mouse (cuz i have a bear on my legs, kinda weird story - lol), which made me automatically type out weird stuff
[12:36] <redguy|work> intelikey: did you paste the errors to some kind of pastebin?
[12:36] <intelikey> nope no change with new bash binarries
[12:36] <intelikey> redguy|work no just in flood
[12:37] <robinl1> and i didnt notice i was spamming, lol
[12:37] <robinl1> so, sorry to you all :P
[12:37] <G0SUB> hmm ... LP has serious usability issues
[12:37] <intelikey> redguy|work you in flood ?
[12:37] <gazanfer> how can i set default applications for a filetype without using preferred actions menu?
[12:38] <redguy|work> intelikey: I am now, but if you paste it in a pastebin other people might see it as well
[12:38] <elkbuntu> G0SUB, you are registered with lp, right?
[12:38] <G0SUB> elkbuntu yes
[12:38] <LinuxPoser> hey, how do i get root access on my machine?
[12:39] <G0SUB> LinuxPoser sudo
[12:39] <intelikey> !root
[12:39] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[12:39] <ompaul> javiolo, see the alt key and the numbers
[12:39] <RockClimber> When I run "glxgears" I get the gears but there is no output of fps to the terminal.
[12:39] <gazanfer> can anyone please tell me the name of default file manager of gnome?
[12:39] <bimberi> javiolo: <esc>1 , <esc>2 ....

[12:40] <gazanfer> now i remember, nautilus wasnt better than rox either... any suggestions for a good filemanager?
[12:40] <ompaul> !glxgears
[12:40] <ubotu> To display the FPS type "glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark"
[12:40] <javiolo> is there any option to beep when someones says my nick ?
[12:40] <bimberi> javiolo: np :) gnomefreak's answer is pretty cool though :)
[12:40] <intelikey> redguy|work oh and fro the record  who -a   returns nothing either.
[12:41] <Darky> can any one give me good program like DC++?

[12:43] <Howitzer> KDE  has an option for this, but i haven't found it in Gnome yet
[12:43] <sp3ed> where can i lern how startup scripts work?
[12:43] <RockClimber> You can modify the Nautilus menu, I've forgotten the name of the app
[12:43] <javiolo> Toma- how do I acces to that menu ? Im on irssi
[12:43] <fluxt> Howitzer, use fluxbox
[12:43] <RockClimber> Howitzer, try the nautilus page on gnome.org, I think there's a plugin app or something. I saw it the other day
[12:44] <Darky> ubotu- what about Donky?
[12:44] <Darky> it is good?
[12:44] <fluxt> !ubotu
[12:44] <gazanfer> how can i set default applications for a filetype without using preferred actions menu?
[12:44] <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.
[12:44] <sp3ed> Anyone? where to read about startup scripts?
[12:44] <intelikey> sp3ed google  sysvinit    man bash    man init    and ask in here
[12:44] <sp3ed> intelikey, ok thanks =)
[12:45] <Darky>  what about Donky? is it good program?
[12:45] <RockClimber> Darky, use bittorrent - much quicker for downloading distros, and large apps (like openoffice)
[12:45] <intelikey> you might want to install bash-doc sp3ed
[12:46] <fluxt> RockClimber, i bet that's not what he has in mind
[12:46] <LoCusF> is there any IM-software that has microphone support for ubuntu?
[12:46] <intelikey> or bash3-doc sp3ed
[12:46] <Darky> rockclimber- can you give sites were i can download movies,etc...?
[12:46] <fluxt> Darky, try limewire www.limewire.com or something
[12:46] <RockClimber> Darky, pirated stuff you mean?
[12:46] <intelikey> sp3ed also  rute  has some good reading on that
[12:46] <Darky> yep..

[12:47] <fluxt> i pirated linux
[12:47] <intelikey> Frogzoo i'll try it.
[12:47] <intelikey> sec.
[12:47] <RockClimber> It's almost impossible to find bittorrents of pirate movies, googleing "bittorrent search" reveals almost no search engines for such like.
[12:47] <Jhair> LoCusF: skype ?
[12:47] <RockClimber> You might as well give up
[12:47] <RockClimber> fluxt, I'll report you to SCO ;-)
[12:47] <Frogzoo> RockClimber: please, no warez in channel dude
[12:48] <fluxt> RockClimber, NOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo :p lol
[12:48] <Darky> and non-pirate movies?
[12:48] <RockClimber> Frogzoo, I'm not I was parodying
[12:48] <Jhair> LoCusF: oh, sorry, AIM means AOL Instant Messenger I didn't know that...
[12:48] <ompaul> Darky, archive.com
[12:48] <Frogzoo> RockClimber: oh soz, thought you were serious :D
[12:48] <RockClimber> Frogzoo, if you read carefully you'll see it was Darky and I was mocking him
[12:48] <ompaul> or dot org (my head hurts)
[12:48] <intelikey> Frogzoo see flood ?
[12:49] <LoCusF> Jhair: just Instant messaging
[12:50] <intelikey> my fingers are typing things that i didn't tells them too ....
[12:50] <Darky> tnx all...
[12:50] <Frogzoo> intelikey: ok, no more mr nice guy: please pastebin 'strace who > /tmp/xxx 2>&1'   & 'strace top >> /tmp/xxx 2>&1'
[12:50] <Darky> one more:
[12:50] <Darky> :)
[12:50] <Darky> how can i change HZ?
[12:50] <Darky> refresh rate
[12:50] <fluxt> Hertz?
[12:50] <Darky> refresh rate
[12:51] <fluxt> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:51] <Frogzoo> !fixres
[12:51] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:51] <intelikey> nope.  that's too much text, i'm not going to put all that crap up.
[12:51] <intelikey> it would take me 5 minutes just to paste it.
[12:51] <Frogzoo> intelikey: ok, no more mr nice guy: please pastebin 'strace who > /tmp/xxx 2>&1 ;; strace top >> /tmp/xxx 2>&1 | grep ld'
[12:52] <ompaul> intelikey, so output > foo.txt and upload that
[12:52] <subwr> what mp3 player is the best?
[12:52] <intelikey> ok that's more like it  :)
[12:52] <Toma-> subwr: xmms
[12:52] <Jhair> subwr: none
[12:52] <subwr> hehe
[12:52] <Jhair> subwr: tests them yourself and decide with fits you best
[12:53] <gazanfer> how can i set default applications for a filetype without using preferred actions menu?
[12:53] <fluxt> subwr, windows media player
[12:53] <bimberi> !defaultapp
[12:53] <ubotu> To change the default app for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties, then the "Open With" tab and change the setting
[12:53] <LoCusF> !skype
[12:53] <ubotu> skype is, like, totally, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeHowto/ Breezy deb: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages/
[12:53] <javiolo> how can I use the terminal if Im using irssi
[12:53] <subwr> no more winxp
[12:54] <subwr> only for lineage
[12:54] <fluxt> subwr, oh, then i use mplayer from the console
[12:54] <jpfarias> hey
[12:54] <tototolo> hey
[12:54] <jpfarias> I have a ubuntu server setup on an amd dual core 64 bits
[12:54] <intelikey> guys this is a joke ok.   but i can paste the output of that in here .   "-bash: strace: command not found
[12:54] <intelikey> -bash: strace: command not found
[12:54] <intelikey> lol
[12:54] <jpfarias> and its clock is weird
[12:55] <jpfarias> how can I fix the clock there?
[12:55] <Frogzoo> intelikey: lol - can't win
[12:55] <intelikey> :)
[12:55] <elkbuntu> jpfarias, define 'weird'
[12:55] <jpfarias> seems the clock is too fast
[12:55] <intelikey> looking for ltrace now
[12:55] <bimberi> javiolo: ctrl-alt-F2 (to get to another virtual console).  You're probably currently operationg on c-a-F1
[12:55] <jpfarias> if the machine stay up for a day, the clock goes a month in the future
[12:55] <fluxt> jpfarias, time is relative
[12:56] <intelikey> no it's not installed either.
[12:56] <Toma-> subwr: you can play lineage in linux
[12:56] <fluxt> Toma-, pitty you can't play WoW in it
[12:56] <Toma-> yeh you can
[12:56] <ecen> hello, i wanted to know... how do i mount a fat32 drive with read write permissions for any user in the fstab to mount automatically?
[12:57] <sp3ed> Is it hard do whrita a startup script that take star and stop in and launch another program? cant find anything usefull on google
[12:57] <jpfarias> and now it says the current time is: Thu Aug  3 16:09:31 1189
[12:57] <intelikey> well i hope you guys figure out what is going on with that Frogzoo,   i gota go.  be back in 14/16 hours maybe.
[12:57] <fluxt> Toma-, i heard it was broken with the latest updates, untrue?
[12:57] <Frogzoo> intelikey: k, cheers
[12:57] <intelikey> and you
[12:57] <sp3ed> sorry about the bad spelling =)
[12:57] <Toma-> fluxt: oh rly. havent heard about that :(
[12:58] <jpfarias> what can be messing up with the clock?
[12:58] <Mind-Rot> IGP 340M isnt supported by fglrx drivers and the ubuntu kernel am i correct?
[12:58] <fluxt> Toma-, i just read the winehq database a couple of days ago
[12:58] <moogman> Hey, does anyone know of a gnome-panel applet that's like the "Drawer" applet, but has a drop-down list of directories instead of objects. i.e. I would like a drop-down list of directories inside ~/items/
[12:59] <fluxt> jpfarias, check the your time in the bios as it ticks over.. perhaps it's a hardware problem? if not... did you do something?
[12:59] <Mind-Rot> anyone have the ATI IGP 340M adapter running on their ubuntu/breezy fine?
[12:59] <fluxt> jpfarias, it might pay to eliminate hardware first
[12:59] <pc22> how do i upgrade to dapper?
[12:59] <Frogzoo> !upgrade
[12:59] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade.  Upgrading to dapper (remember it may break). Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html.
[12:59] <jpfarias> how do I check the time on bios?
[01:00] <fluxt> jpfarias, if you watch it tick over now, does it seem normal?
[01:00] <jpfarias> can I do that from linux?
[01:00] <Toma-> fluxt: im sure theyll patch wine soon enough
[01:00] <elithrar> Hrm, Ubuntu seems content on using 1.0.0.0 as the IP address for everything outside of Firefox -- I'm guessing this is an issue with ipv6 and my routers non-updated firmware, seeing as disabling ipv6 in Firefox gets it working. However, apt-get and other applications try to connect to 1.0.0.0 (regardless of server); how do I fix this issue, besides updating the firmware?
[01:00] <jpfarias> fluxt: it does not tick normal
[01:00] <ecen> i mean, i have this in fstab "/dev/hdd1 /media/mydrive  vfat defaults  0  0" and it loads ok, but how do i give this drive read write permissions for any user by default?
[01:01] <jpfarias> Ive written a script to print the current time and sleep half a second forever
[01:01] <Mind-Rot> does anyone know how i can revert to the drivers that came with ubuntu b4 i installed fglrx?
[01:01] <jpfarias> it happens to print something like this:
[01:01] <fluxt> jpfarias, ok to check in the bios, restart the machine, on reboot, keep pressing DEL. it's in the first option on most PCs, it shows the time, watch it tick over
[01:01] <jpfarias> Thu Aug  3 16:12:24 1189
[01:01] <jpfarias> Thu Aug  3 16:12:27 1189
[01:01] <jpfarias> Thu Aug  3 16:12:28 1189
[01:01] <jpfarias> Thu Aug  3 16:12:31 1189
[01:01] <jpfarias> what if i'm not at same location of the machine? :P
[01:02] <Toma-> nice paste
[01:02] <Toma-> pretty damn annoying too
[01:02] <redguy|work> ecen: man fstab (or is it man mount?) and look for umask in the section mentioning vfat. you can search in man pages hitting / and entering what you want to search for
[01:02] <jpfarias> can it be some kernel bug?
[01:03] <redguy|work> jpfarias: unlikely
[01:03] <jpfarias> I'm using this:
[01:03] <jpfarias> # uname -a
[01:03] <jpfarias> Linux kablamo 2.6.12-10-amd64-k8-smp #1 SMP Fri Nov 18 12:20:27 UTC 2005 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[01:03] <fluxt> jpfarias, then you can't check it that way. and sure it could be a bug / misconfiguration or something
[01:03] <redguy|work> jpfarias: do you have a milti-processor box?
[01:03] <redguy|work> multi
[01:03] <jpfarias> redguy|work: yep
[01:03] <jpfarias> hmm nope
[01:03] <jpfarias> it is a dual core
[01:03] <jpfarias> amd
[01:04] <Frogzoo> redguy|work: seems the problem with libproc is bad file permissions, so if you see intelikey later, can you pass it on? (needs 755)
[01:04] <redguy|work> hmm
[01:04] <LinuxPoser> anyone feel like explaining to me how to use root sudo?
[01:04] <Frogzoo> !sudo
[01:04] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[01:04] <javiolo> hi, do anyone knows if the app SCREEN is available through apt-get ?
[01:04] <LinuxPoser> looked at that >.> just started using linux last night
[01:04] <redguy|work> Frogzoo: ok, will leave him a meassage on memoserv as well
[01:04] <Frogzoo> redguy|work: cool, thx
[01:04] <gnomefreak> javiolo: its installed by default just type screen in terminal
[01:04] <fluxt> javiolo, it could be installed
[01:05] <fluxt> ahh
[01:05] <pc22> how do i edit my sourcelist?
[01:05] <javiolo> gnomefreak dumb me
[01:05] <moogman> LinuxPoser: You can use sudo -s to get a "root" prompt if you *really* need one
[01:05] <gnomefreak> pc22: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:05] <Mind-Rot> sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list i believe
[01:05] <jpfarias> so, any idea of what can be messing up the clock?
[01:05] <moogman> LinuxPoser: But I would recommend just using sudo your_command, as sudo will save your password for approx. ten minutes
[01:05] <Frogzoo> pc22: sudo gedit /etc/apt.sources.lst    ooooorrr..... just click repos from synaptic & add/edit
[01:05] <pc22> gnomefreak, thanks
[01:05] <Mind-Rot> or gedit, easier
[01:05] <joel886421> hello
[01:05] <gnomefreak> Mind-Rot: hes asking how to do it im thinking vi might be a lil issue there
[01:05] <LinuxPoser> just trying to be able to view my hdd
[01:06] <pc22> Frogzoo, synaptic wont work
[01:06] <LinuxPoser> its saying i dont have the privleges
[01:06] <shukhrat> Hello Dear Community
[01:06] <fluxt> LinuxPoser, windows partition?
[01:06] <LinuxPoser> yeah
[01:06] <fluxt> !mountwindows
[01:06] <ubotu> Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter to make your windows or mac partitions mount automatically.  If you wish to set it up yourself by hand, read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[01:06] <shukhrat> Does Ubuntu have PHP editor ?
[01:06] <Frogzoo> pc22: probly 'cos sources.list is messed up
[01:06] <LinuxPoser> used partition magic to make a 10GB partition for ubuntu
[01:06] <pc22> yea
[01:06] <elithrar> Hrm, Ubuntu seems content on using 1.0.0.0 as the IP address for everything outside of Firefox -- I'm guessing this is an issue with ipv6 and my routers non-updated firmware, seeing as disabling ipv6 in Firefox gets it working. However, apt-get and other applications try to connect to 1.0.0.0 (regardless of server); how do I fix this issue, besides updating the firmware?
[01:07] <joel886421> can anybody help me install drivers for sound card?
[01:07] <LinuxPoser> i'm almost tempted to make linux my main operating system, but i cant play my beloved games on it
[01:08] <pc22> Frogzoo, are u using dapper?
[01:08] <joel886421> where can i find drivers for a Creative Banshee 3D sound card?
[01:08] <fluxt> LinuxPoser, well, there is one game, requires 3d.. enemy territory (google)
[01:08] <Frogzoo> pc22: nope
[01:08] <Angel_Dex> im thinking about stripping ubuntu down bare
[01:08] <Frogzoo> pc22: dapper support -> #ubuntu+1
[01:09] <LinuxPoser> i want Diablo II :P, i play it with my buddies at lan's
[01:09] <Angel_Dex> any ideas tips tricks?
[01:09] <shukhrat> Does Ubuntu have PHP editor ?
[01:09] <LinuxPoser> !ati
[01:09] <Angel_Dex> LinuxPoser good luck i tryed on my install and failed miserable
[01:09] <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
[01:09] <elithrar> LinuxPoser: Tried  hacking it up with Wine or Cedega?
[01:09] <fluxt> LinuxPoser, i got Diablo II partially working under wine. I could play with existing chars etc..
[01:09] <pc22> Frogzoo, thanks\
[01:09] <linxtvr> hi, what is the best way to backup ubuntu?
[01:09] <LinuxPoser> is there such thing as a dx9 translator?
[01:09] <Frogzoo> pc22: yw
[01:10] <fluxt> LinuxPoser, sudo apt-get install wine
[01:10] <elithrar> fluxt: Yeah, you can copy the resources and run it via Wine straight off, very much like you can do in Windows, but you can't create 'new' characters, only play existing ones.
[01:10] <fluxt> !wine
[01:10] <Angel_Dex> fluxt lucky bastard >.>
[01:10] <ecen> thanks
[01:10] <Angel_Dex> i coudlnt get it running at all
[01:10] <LinuxPoser> there was a kid in my computer science class saying that there are underground projects where people code dx9 decoders, and if they go public they get sued to hell and back by microsoft
[01:10] <fluxt> elithrar, i dont think it updates the chars wither.. correct?
[01:10] <ecen> i read the ma pages, now i will reboot to try
[01:11] <fluxt> either*
[01:11] <elithrar> fluxt: It should update them, for some reason you just have issues creating new ones. Not sure why though.
[01:11] <LinuxPoser> by the way it says wine is missing
[01:11] <elithrar> fluxt: I guess you could use an external editor to create new character files if you wanted to, though.
[01:11] <fluxt> elithrar, well you can always get a friend to create one for you ;)
[01:12] <fluxt> anyway this is slightly offtopic #wine stuff
[01:12] <Angel_Dex> i coudlnt get mine running so i had to wait till my father got a computer as his house with windows on it to play TT_TT atleast i had no headaches installing
[01:12] <Frogzoo> LinuxPoser: I think if people were being sued by M$, people would know about it
[01:13] <LinuxPoser> so there is no such thing as a dx decoder for linux :P?
[01:13] <fluxt> LinuxPoser, it must be in the multiverse
[01:13] <fluxt> !multiverse
[01:13] <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
[01:13] <LinuxPoser> do you know of a nice general guide to ubuntu i could read?
[01:13] <Frogzoo> pc22: yw = you're welcome
[01:13] <LinuxPoser> for like general use, commands that are helpful?
[01:13] <Angel_Dex> fluxt think stripping ubuntu down would be just as good as getting a lighter distro?
[01:14] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, pretty much :)
[01:14] <pc22> oh
[01:14] <redguy|work> LinuxPoser: well, it should be somewhere in gnome's help on your box
[01:14] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, someone suggested archlinux for bleeding edge
[01:14] <shukhrat> where download games for my Ubuntu ?
[01:14] <Angel_Dex> fluxt i have a 400mhz IBM i wanted to use for just games and music MAYBE a server and ubuntu seemed just to big for my idea
[01:14] <elithrar> LinuxPoser: Browse through the wiki on ubuntu.org, it's pretty useful
[01:14] <fluxt> shukhrat, www.happypenguin.org
[01:14] <fluxt> !games
[01:14] <ubotu> from memory, games is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5153 or http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Loki_Installers_for_Linux_Gamers  News http://www.linux-gamers.net/
[01:15] <Frogzoo> pc22: also, if there's a package called 'gnome-art' in breezy it lets you change gnome splash & more
[01:15] <Angel_Dex> fluxt i looked at alota light distros but the repos just sucked big time for what iwanted to do
[01:15] <elithrar> Quake3 and Enemy Territory work pretty well, if your drivers are up to date and well-proliferated (read: ATI/nVidia)
[01:16] <LinuxPoser> how do i find out what card i have? before i install the fglrx drivers
[01:16] <Frogzoo> shukhrat: anything licensed, such as games, won't be in the repos - apart from mine sweeper etc
[01:16] <Frogzoo> LinuxPoser: lspci
[01:16] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, well, ubuntu it's real heavy, not real light. you can start removing packages from it tho, no worries :)
[01:16] <pc22> great
[01:16] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, i meant NOT real heavy
[01:16] <LinuxPoser> ah, thought it was an I
[01:17] <elithrar> Ubuntu is like the middle-ground, user friendly with powerful options hidden beneath ;)
[01:17] <joelbryan> I just updated, I haven't restarted yet, does the intro splash now different?
[01:17] <shukhrat> Frogzoo: thanks
[01:17] <LinuxPoser> mines a mobile graphics card, how can i tell if its compatible or not?
[01:17] <fluxt> elithrar, with an ugly default theme / splash / etc ;)
[01:18] <LinuxPoser> sorry for spamming it up by the way
[01:18] <Frogzoo> LinuxPoser: what does lspci say? you can check hardware but not usually necessary
[01:18] <Frogzoo> !tell LinuxPoser about hardware
[01:18] <elithrar> fluxt: Haha, I like the default Ubuntu theme, it's minimalist. At least it's GNOME, K drives me insane.
[01:18] <Angel_Dex> fluxt well if i remove packages and use a lighter WM such as icewm it would be less upon the CPU and on the ram no?
[01:19] <fluxt> yes indeed Angel_Dex go for it
[01:19] <Angel_Dex> hehe
[01:19] <Angel_Dex> cool
[01:19] <fluxt> even just the WM alone
[01:19] <marten71> hello
[01:19] <marten71> i have a big problem
[01:19] <redguy|work> Angel_Dex: also, consider xubuntu
[01:19] <redguy|work> !xubuntu
[01:19] <ubotu> I heard xubuntu is Ubuntu using XFCE instead of Gnome for the desktop. Details here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu
[01:19] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, you don't really need to remove packages to save ram, disable services and use a lighter WM with lighter Apps.
[01:19] <funkyHat> To hash a password for grub I just use md5sum right?
[01:20] <LinuxPoser> it only speicifies pc cards on the fglrx site
[01:20] <Frogzoo> funkyHat: nope - you need to use grub's crypt
[01:20] <elithrar> LinuxPoser: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam is a good place to start for laptop related stuff, esp. since some laptops have a few issues that need to be manipulated around/through
[01:20] <marten71> i am trying to install Ubuntu to my sony laptop and it cant install
[01:20] <LinuxPoser> got a Radeon IGP 340M
[01:20] <funkyHat> ahh, grub-md5-crypt
[01:20] <LinuxPoser> alright thanks
[01:20] <Angel_Dex> fluxt Hmm ok many thanks ill remove uneeded ones tho to open up more HD for music and games
[01:20] <redguy|work> marten71: elaborate on "it can't install"
[01:20] <funkyHat> thanks Frogzoo
[01:21] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, very well!
[01:21] <marten71> it stop whan it is going to install standard paked
[01:21] <elithrar> marten71: Elaborate on "Sony laptop" =p
[01:21] <elithrar> What size is the partition you're installing it on?
[01:21] <AndiM> elithrar: dito!
 sony pcg-fxa53
[01:21] <LinuxPoser> bah my lappy isnt on there
[01:21] <elithrar> Last I checked on the issue, less than 4GB can cause the installer to stop abruptly.
[01:21] <Frogzoo> funkyHat: md5crypt apparently - also, pass the -md5 option in menu.lst
[01:22] <Angel_Dex> fluxt lol hehehe Mostly gonna be a Zsnes maybe mame if i can get it running and doom compy
[01:22] <fluxt> LinuxPoser, check ATI's website see if you chip is supported by their driver
[01:22] <funkyHat> Frogzoo, I think it's grub-md5-crypt, and I figured the --md5 option from the examples :)
[01:22] <Frogzoo> funkyHat: sounds right
[01:22] <subwr> im playing mp3s with xmms. Everything seems to work fine except of sound on my speakers
[01:23] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, well that wont need too much space. I've been playing Zelda on mame, so much fun
[01:23] <Frogzoo> LinuxPoser: no, but your lappy may still use hardware that's supported
[01:23] <sp3ed> is a "startup script" a script that starts a program? =S
[01:23] <Angel_Dex> fluxt i got mame on this box tho i cant get it up (what services are safe to stop?)
[01:23] <elithrar> sp3ed: A startup script is a script that runs on boot
[01:23] <redguy|work> subwr: maybe the PCM or Wave volume is too low?
[01:23] <Falstius> sp3ed: usually run at boot time ...
[01:24] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, hmm, i'm not sure? better redirect the question at the chan about services
[01:24] <redguy|work> subwr: check your mixer settings
[01:24] <subwr> redguy i have the volume to max
[01:24] <nigdaemon> hi
[01:24] <Frogzoo> LinuxPoser: what model?
[01:24] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, i've been tempted to start disabling things just for kicks :)
[01:24] <nigdaemon> anyone here?
[01:24] <LinuxPoser> HP Pavillion ze5200
[01:24] <Angel_Dex> Does anyone know what services i can safely disable?
[01:24] <subwr> where i find the sound mixer?
[01:24] <sp3ed> "Creat a startup script for a program" must mean a startup scirpt for just a program? =S

[01:26] <elithrar> LinuxPoser: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/HPZE4200 is the closest I can find, though I'm not sure if the difference between the 4200 and 5200 is merely performance (mhz/ram/graphics) or more

[01:30] <elithrar> Anyone able to help with an issue around 1.0.0.0 becoming the default IP? I suspect it's an IPv6 incompatibility issue with my ADSL router, seeing as an IPv6-disabled Firefox works.
[01:31] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, i wouldn't uninstall it.. you'll need gnome
[01:31] <vmware> what is the password for the network on (ubuntu vmware)HELP????
[01:31] <vmware> the standard
[01:31] <Angel_Dex> fluxt crap @.@ alota the preinstalled programs want to take ubuntu desktop out
[01:31] <vmware> password
[01:31] <Seveas> vmware, ubuntu
[01:32] <vmware> yes
[01:32] <Seveas> vmware, that's the password..
[01:32] <redguy|work> Angel_Dex: ubuntu-desktop is just a meat-package
[01:32] <redguy|work> darn
[01:32] <subwr> well not only mp3s but all sounds are ver weak
[01:32] <fluxt> Angel_Dex, hmm.. i wonder what is inside this "ubuntu desktop" package
[01:32] <redguy|work> meta-package
[01:32] <Seveas> redguy|work, love that typo 
[01:32] <fluxt> probably gnome
[01:32] <redguy|work> :-)
[01:32] <subwr> and everything is set to max
[01:32] <Angel_Dex> redguy|work Hum meaning>? (noob)
[01:32] <vmware> no i have tryed that but it does not work
[01:33] <fluxt> redguy|work, meta/meat package? what's this mean?
[01:33] <redguy|work> Angel_Dex: meaning it does not contain actual files, it just has dependencies
[01:33] <subwr> how can update my soundcard driver?
[01:33] <Angel_Dex> redguy|work >.> sooooo dont uninstall it? cuz im just wanting to lighten ubuntu up
[01:33] <elithrar> Anyone able to help with an issue around 1.0.0.0 becoming the default IP? I suspect it's an IPv6 incompatibility issue with my ADSL router, seeing as an IPv6-disabled Firefox works (and won't work with IPv6 enabled in about:config)
[01:34] <fluxt> elithrar, tried google? :/
[01:34] <elithrar> Google drives me nuts on stuff like this :<
[01:34] <babo> Hi guys, I really need to locate a small data file on an ext3 directory that I've deleted. None of the tools will work here, so basically I want to parse the whole filesystem for the keywords  ... I've tried  grep -a -A200 -B200 /dev/sda1 'keyword' > recover.txt   but it seems to want to copy the whole partition into recover.txt ... strings only works on files ... can anyone help here ... I want to parse a whole raw device ...
[01:34] <Frogzoo> subwr: have you checked apps -> sound -> volume control ?
[01:34] <subwr> elithar set your router lan ip to 192.168.q.q
[01:34] <subwr> elithar set your router lan ip to 192.168.1.1
[01:34] <redguy|work> Angel_Dex: so you can uninstall it with no harm, it depends on gnome for example and you don't want gnome if you want to lighten your ubuntu
[01:34] <subwr> elithar your pc to 192.168.1.100
[01:35] <subwr> elithar and use your router as a gateaway
[01:35] <Angel_Dex> redguy|work im gonna use icewm >.>
[01:35] <chuckyp> babo, try find or if you are just looking for a filename you can use cat * | grep name
[01:35] <redguy|work> Angel_Dex: I think that you might want xubuntu if you want a lightweight desktop
[01:35] <nigdaemon> oh
[01:36] <elithrar> subwr: Thanks, I'll try that when I boot into Ubuntu again. Router is at 10.1.1.1, so I'll make sure to change it.
[01:36] <Angel_Dex> redguy|work Ok ill try it >.> its gonna be ona 400mhz <.< for mainly zsnes and doom
[01:36] <fluxt> babo, the problem with grep is it wont tell you where it found your keyword for one and grep won't pull the whole file, other than that i have no idea
[01:36] <chuckyp> Angel_Dex, people still play doom?
[01:37] <babo> chuckyp: there are no filenames anymore I'm afraid, ext3 has erased them ... I'm just looking for raw data ...
[01:37] <chuckyp> babo, man find I'm pretty sure you search through data with that.
[01:37] <Frogzoo> fluxt: grep -n
[01:37] <fluxt> babo, oh -A -B
[01:37] <riaal> how do i start firefox in backround?
[01:37] <babo> fluxt: yes but I can grep -a -A200 -B200 which will pull out 200 lines before and after my keyword. It's only a small file so that would do me fine.
[01:38] <fluxt> babo, doesn't the pattern come before the file?
[01:38] <babo> fluxt: find works with filenames
[01:38] <fluxt> find?
[01:38] <knutk> i have a problem, i have just installed ubuntu and when i click system>admin>networking nothing happens. Anybody who can help me?
[01:38] <Angel_Dex> chuckyp =o the dare you say! Doom isa classic!
[01:38] <riaal> how do i start firefox in the backround from a terminal window?
[01:38] <babo> fluxt: typo ... sorry
[01:38] <chuckyp> Angel_Dex, yeah but you can't play online with it canyou?  Think you would have trouble finding people playing.
[01:39] <fluxt> babo, well your idea seemd like a good one, perhaps you need a broader key sentence or something
[01:39] <Angel_Dex> chuckyp Ummmm No online play nope none
[01:39] <robinl1> does anybody know a program to control your mouse with a keyboard?
[01:39] <robinl1> EXTERNAL program
[01:39] <robinl1> n a gnome module
[01:39] <robinl1> not*
[01:40] <fluxt> like a robot attached to the serial port moving the mouse via instructions via the keyboard?
[01:40] <fluxt> ok, perhaps not..
[01:40] <Angel_Dex> fluxt lol nice
[01:40] <kernelx001> hello
[01:40] <chuckyp> yellow

[01:41] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fluxt
[01:41] <kernelx001> it hangs at the save entry of boot

[01:41] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[01:41] <Frogzoo> babo: how big is this partition?

[01:42] <vmware> I NEED PASSWORD FOR UBUNTU AND IT IS NOT VMWARE????
[01:42] <robinl1> !draper
[01:42] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, robinl1
[01:42] <robinl1> !password
[01:42] <ubotu> password is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StrongPasswords
[01:42] <chuckyp> vmware, what ever your user password is.
[01:42] <robinl1> !vmware
[01:42] <ubotu> robinl1: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:43] <Frogzoo> vmware: it is 'ubuntu' apparently
[01:43] <SmartUnix> Hello
[01:43] <babo> vmware: have you heard about the cleartext password in the installation log files ?
[01:43] <marten71> hello
[01:43] <robinl1> fluxt: and... no
[01:43] <SmartUnix> please i have problem with printer
[01:43] <marten71> i have downloaded the dvd in iso
[01:43] <GnarusLeo> How can I burn a .img file to a dvd with ubuntu? k3b?
[01:43] <elithrar> SmartUnix: Can I be your evil-twin? I'll rename myself DumbUnix =p
[01:43] <SmartUnix> :)
[01:43] <Frogzoo> GnarusLeo: k3b will do it effortlessly
[01:43] <GnarusLeo> hehe
[01:44] <marten71> what file am i going to unpack
[01:44] <GnarusLeo> Frogzoo, wich means? It only wants to open k3b-projects
[01:44] <elithrar> babo: Haha, that was such a total oversight
[01:44] <Angel_Dex> i dont understand
[01:44] <Angel_Dex> how do i use xubuntu?
[01:44] <Frogzoo> GnarusLeo: burn image & select the iso - this works from gnome
[01:44] <Angel_Dex> @.@
[01:44] <marten71> the iso ot the blue arrow i am useing isobuster
[01:44] <SmartUnix> when i open "printer" from System list it's show for me this massege "The CUPS server could not be contacted"
[01:44] <SmartUnix> what should i do ?
[01:44] <chuckyp> marten71, you just want to burn the iso?
[01:45] <GnarusLeo> Frogzoo, ah, sorry! Ty
[01:45] <fiveiron> hmm.. fdisk can do fat32, right?
[01:45] <chuckyp> fiveiron, yes
[01:45] <fiveiron> aight
yes
[01:45] <fluxt> robinl1, http://www.umiacs.umd.edu/~jusub/unix-hints-and-hacks/19270109.htm
[01:45] <elithrar> marten71: If you're in Ubuntu, just use k3b to burn the ISO to DVD
[01:46] <gnomefreak> SmartUnix: wait an hr and try again (there might be a server issue)
[01:46] <chuckyp> marten71, right on the download page is instructions for burning the iso http://www.ubuntu.com/download
[01:46] <babo> elithrar: what was such a total oversight ?
 no i am in xp
[01:46] <fluxt> see, i'm not all silly.. also robinl1 -> the initial search http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=mouse+control+keyboard+xmodmap&btnG=Google+Search&meta=
[01:46] <elithrar> babo: The cleartext password in the log file, it's like 'ooops'
[01:47] <elithrar> marten71: Use something like Nero, or go to http://download.com and search for "Cheetah CD burner"
 ok thanks
[01:47] <babo> elithrar: yeah that was kind funny. I couldn't believe it took 5 months for that to be exposed
[01:47] <fluxt> elithrar, it's like a big 'lol'
[01:47] <elithrar> Dapper Drake is almost out and they just found it.
[01:47] <Frogzoo> babo: soln for you - use 'grep -b'  & then use 'seek' option of dd | head -n
[01:47] <SmartUnix> when i open "printer" from System list it's show for me this massege "The CUPS server could not be contacted"
ok thanks
[01:48] <riaal>  Hey, can someone please tell me where i can find info about a program startup scirpt? i have no ide how to start writing =(
[01:48] <elithrar> Ah well, there has to be something funny like that ;)
[01:48] <chuckyp> elithrar, dapper will be delayed its not almsot out.
[01:48] <Sp4rKy> hi
[01:48] <Sp4rKy> i've installed e17
[01:48] <robinl1> YAY so it works also outside of gnome?
[01:48] <robinl1> great thanks to you all!
[01:48] <chuckyp> riaal, to start when you log into gnome?  or to start before gnome?
[01:48] <fluxt> good on ya Sp4rKy
[01:48] <robinl1> now it really becomes fun
[01:48] <fluxt> robinl1, should do
[01:48] <Sp4rKy> but i haven't the e_* command (like e_util_eapp_edit)
[01:48] <fluxt> robinl1, not outside of X11 tho
[01:48] <riaal> chuckyp, its supost to runn a program that i can start and stop
[01:48] <Sp4rKy> what must i install to them ?
[01:48] <chuckyp> riaal, ahh you'd use update-rc.d
[01:49] <robinl1> Okay now i have made my numpad a complete interface with windows AND a mouse control thing
[01:49] <robinl1> so i dont need a mouse anymore! ^^
[01:49] <riaal> chuckyp, ??
[01:49] <robinl1> great thanks to ya all
[01:49] <robinl1> gonna use it in gaming also
[01:49] <fluxt> :) sorry about the terrible robot joke robinl1, you're welcome
[01:50] <robinl1> oh thats ok
[01:50] <robinl1> :)
[01:50] <chuckyp> riaal, you would write your own script with start stop and restart functions then use update-rc.d to impliment it.
[01:51] <robinl1> fluxt: i think you're gonna like this
[01:51] <redguy|work> riaal: see /etc/init.d/skeleton on how it might look like
[01:51] <riaal> chuckyp, thats want i want to do but i dont know what you mean by "use update-rc.d to impliment it."
[01:51] <chuckyp> riaal, http://www.debianhelp.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=3306  <<< there is a good start for ya
[01:51] <redguy|work> riaal: well, how about man update-rc.d ?
[01:51] <robinl1> fluxt: my keypad is my mouse now, when i press numlock, but even more - i use it to move windows, resize em, show windows,hide windows, shade em, all in one numpad!
[01:51] <Frogzoo> babo: if 'grep -b' doesn't work, try 'strings -t d | grep '
[01:51] <jadaz87> does anyone know how to keep the sudo command on for the whole temrinal session instead of having  to type it out in front of every command?
[01:51] <robinl1> fluxt: i set the xfce theme THAT way that windows dont have borders, my panels are autohiding
[01:52] <robinl1> fluxt: and if i enable composite, it REALLY gets fun
[01:52] <gnomefreak> jadaz87: sudo -i
[01:52] <babo> Frogzoo: hmmm ... I don't know whether that would work ... there is no file offset to measure against since the data is now in an unallocated part of the system ... dido for the head ... it's definitley an interesting suggestion though and if what I'm doing at the moment doesn't work I'll look into it :-)
[01:52] <GnarusLeo> I know people hate this, but Ill ask anyways :) I have amarok, limewire, azureus, xchat, opera, k3b, Mozilla Thunderbird, gaim .... are there any other nice GUI programs I should have alook at?
[01:52] <redguy|work> jadaz87: you might try sudo -i, but be carefull on what you type!
[01:52] <jadaz87> gnomefreak: thank you so much
[01:52] <jadaz87> redguy|work: thank you too
[01:53] <gnomefreak> jadaz87: as redguy|work said be carefull
[01:53] <redguy|work> GnarusLeo: depends on what you want to do :-)
[01:53] <Frogzoo> babo: I'm assuming you start with 'cat /dev/hda1 | strings -t d | grep MATCH'
[01:53] <gnomefreak> GnarusLeo: are you gonne use them or just have them "just in case"
[01:53] <elithrar> GnarusLeo: Make sure Firefox is updated, and also look at OpenOffice.org as well ;)
[01:53] <chuckyp> riaal, that and the skeleton file are a good read.
[01:53] <babo> Frogzoo: at the moment I'm trying cat /dev/sda1/ | strings -a | grep -a -A100 -B100 "keyword" > recovery.txt
[01:53] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, amule
[01:53] <fluxt> robinl1, soulds pretty cool actually yes
[01:53] <gnomefreak> anjuta
[01:53] <GnarusLeo> redguy|work, im just boored actually :) Nothing particularly .... just GUI gadgets :P
[01:54] <GnarusLeo> chuckyp, whats amule?
[01:54] <robinl1> fluxt: Yes, and all in XFCE :)
[01:54] <fluxt> robinl1, it'd be great on a mobile laptop
[01:54] <robinl1> fluxt: i'm gonna save this stuff
[01:54] <GnarusLeo> elithrar, ah! Opeiffoce! Of course
[01:54] <robinl1> fluxt: sure will ;)
[01:54] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, amule is edonkey client
[01:54] <elithrar> GnarusLeo: Hehe, how could you forget? =p
[01:54] <GnarusLeo> damn, I have a 8x dvd-ram and its burning in 1.2x ... :(
[01:55] <GnarusLeo> elithrar :)
[01:55] <fluxt> !dma
[01:55] <Din> hay
[01:55] <fluxt> !+dma
[01:55] <ubotu> it has been said that dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. A method of transferring data from one memory area to another without having to go through the central processing unit. It makes your hard disks run faster :-).  DMA from the ubuntu wiki guide https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[01:55] <babo> Frogzoo: what does the  strings -d flag do ? It's not in my man strings
[01:55] <Din> i am having problem with updating my ubuntu
[01:55] <Din> what should i do
[01:55] <GnarusLeo> fluxt, damn ... is it safe? Easy to use?
[01:56] <gnomefreak> Din: tells us what the problem is would be a great start
[01:56] <fluxt> very
[01:56] <Din> i say that is doesn't find some indexes
[01:56] <gnomefreak> Din: run sudo apt-get update and paste the output on pastebin please
[01:56] <GnarusLeo> fluxt, and does it really help? :)

[01:57] <thegladiator> oh ubz knows it
[01:57] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, apparently
[01:57] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, you may also want to check the config of the burning app you're using
[01:57] <gnomefreak> Din:  i said on pastebin and thats not english. what lang is that
[01:58] <Din> am slovenian
[01:58] <GnarusLeo> fluxt, nice .. btw, didnt get the fglrx drivers to work after all this other night ... have tried everything ... the screen wont stop flickering

[01:58] <b33r> what antivirus should I get for unbuntu?
[01:58] <Din> that i would get output in english
[01:58] <subwr> i cant eject cdrom
[01:58] <GnarusLeo> subir, eject /dev/cdrom
[01:58] <GnarusLeo> subir, 0 or 1 :)
[01:58] <chuckyp> subwr, you need to un mount it first also unlessyou are using gnome
[01:59] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, :( that's not good at all. I found a "working" config which I'd pasted on pastebin but you'd gone
[01:59] <chuckyp> subir, unless you use the eject script then you don't need to worry bout it.
[01:59] <vinicius_> hi folks...
[01:59] <chuckyp> subir, right click on the cdrom icon and click eject

[01:59] <ubotu> Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke. # russian users please try #ubuntu-ru, there you may get more help
[01:59] <GnarusLeo> fluxt, yes, was rebooting and everything went west :) Do you remember the config?
[01:59] <subwr> where is the script?
[01:59] <gnomefreak> ^^^that right for lang?
[01:59] <chuckyp> subwr, are you in gnome?
[01:59] <GnarusLeo> subwr, "umount /media/cdrom && eject /media/cdrom"
[01:59] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, the important bits where here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10115
[02:00] <GnarusLeo> fluxt, thanks
[02:00] <subwr> yes gnome
[02:00] <chuckyp> subwr, then just right click on the cdrom icon
[02:00] <vinicius_> i have a question.. what would be the best (and hassle free) way to restart with ubuntu, without lose my settings (home and some docs)?
[02:00] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, thank god pastebin has memory :) npz.. who knows if it'll work tho
[02:00] <subwr> right click is not giving me the option
[02:00] <chuckyp> vinicius_, back up your home or move it to another partition
[02:01] <Din> i am slovenian
[02:01] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, you'd have to set your config to use "LCD" instead of the default monitor in xorg.conf
[02:01] <Frogzoo> babo: ah, dd seek doesn't work - but dd skip does!
[02:02] <GnarusLeo> fluxt, I actually tried that, but then I got an error saying "no screens found"
[02:02] <Din> what do to that list will refresh (update list)
[02:02] <GnarusLeo> fluxt, and X wouldnt start at all
[02:02] <maethor89> how to remove gnome?
[02:02] <gnomefreak> Din: i thought russian and slovenian were same language :(
[02:02] <vinicius_> chuckyp, what i mean by restart is that i messed a lot with my installation, i would like to configure it like the first time, without a full ijnstallation
[02:02] <GnarusLeo> maethor89, sudo apt-get remove gnome :)
[02:02] <Frogzoo> babo: this works definately - I just pulled the passwd file from /dev/hda8
[02:02] <maethor89> is it ok to remove ubuntu desktop
[02:02] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, the config i pasted, the identifier is called "LCD" instead of "Generic Monitor" that's all
[02:02] <gnomefreak> maethor89: yes
[02:02] <maethor89> thanks
[02:03] <GnarusLeo> maethor89, make sure you close gnome and do it in a terminal
[02:03] <babo> Frogzoo: the problem is though that my data is in a deleted file. So basically there is no file there to work with ... it's just a bunch of noise on a harddrive ...
[02:03] <GnarusLeo> thanks fluxt, Ill try after my slow burnings done :)
[02:03] <[Yoni] > Hi all, While I tried to turn on my pc (  that has Ubuntu 5.10 ) I got the nex error msg: [ 626.361194]  <0>Kernel panic - not synving: Fatal exception in interrupt
[02:03] <maethor89> yeah i'll do it
[02:03] <maethor89> bye and thanks for your help
[02:03] <[Yoni] > & the boot got stucked, how can I solved this issue?
[02:03] <Frogzoo> babo: nope - the data's still there - just the file's unlinked - best you stop writing to the partition though before it gets overwritten
[02:04] <[Yoni] > P.S If I'll do reset a few times it will work.. but sometimes the box will work really slow....
[02:04] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, so under the Section "Screen" you'd change Monitor "whateveryouhad" to Monitor "LCD"
[02:04] <fluxt> GnarusLeo, no probs
[02:04] <Frogzoo> babo: 'sudo cat /dev/hdax | strings -t d | grep MATCH' - get your offset X  & divide by block size, say 10000
[02:05] <Frogzoo> babo: 'sudo dd if=/dev/hdax skip=X bs=10000 | head -n 500 > /tmp/xx
[02:05] <babo> Frogzoo: yeah ... I have the partition mounted read-only and I'm accessing over a live auditor disk
[02:05] <marten71> I have just start installing to my sony pcg-fxa53 laptop
[02:05] <Frogzoo> babo: this works - done it before a few times
[02:05] <marten71> i have xp on it
[02:05] <katarot> can any one help me im having trouble getting the internet
[02:06] <redguy|work> Din: you might try putting LC_ALL=C before the command that gives you errors. Do not paste in here please
[02:06] <redguy|work> !pastebin
[02:06] <babo> Frogzoo: you've recovered deleted ext3 data using this method ?
[02:06] <GnarusLeo> katarot, does "ifconfig eth0" show any IP's?
[02:06] <fluxt> !anyone
[02:06] <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>
[02:06] <attila> ...
[02:06] <fluxt> actually katarot some more details would help
[02:06] <katarot> emmm i think so
[02:06] <ndmzim001> ubuntu
[02:07] <Frogzoo> babo: no - ufs & ext2...
[02:07] <babo> Frogzoo: did you use coroners toolkit as well ?
[02:07] <katarot> ok sorry i go boot up ubuntu and use anorher computer for this sorry again
[02:07] <redguy|work> !tell Din about pastebin
[02:07] <marten71> i have a questing what to do with the partion
[02:08] <Frogzoo> babo: nope - no luck with the strings | grep then ? nada? or still reading?
[02:08] <babo> Frogzoo: Ok, if what I'm doing at the moment fails I'll give it a go -thanks ... I'm still reading
[02:08] <marten71> shall i change  the disk or usr the most of the free
[02:08] <marten71> use
[02:09] <chuckyp> marten71, what do you mena what are you trying to do?
[02:09] <nagyv> !w32codecs
[02:09] <ubotu> well, 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
[02:09] <servers> what antivirus should I get for unbuntu?
[02:09] <marten71> i am trying to install ubuntu to my laptop
[02:09] <redguy|work> servers: try clamav
[02:09] <richard> how can i get acces to /var/www? i'm a root, but i don't want to enter as a root, i want to enter as a normal user
[02:09] <LinuxJones> servers: you don't really need one if you stick to the Ubuntu repositories
i am trying to install ubuntu to my laptop
[02:10] <redguy|work> servers: but in general, you shouldn't need it
[02:10] <vinicius_> any way i can get rid of the extra firefox.bin process without remove it completely? (i just messed with the whole gnome install doing this)
[02:10] <fluxt> how do i get rid of the rootkit installed on my pc?
[02:10] <redguy|work> fluxt: backup and reinstall
[02:10] <chuckyp> marten71, do you want to daul boot it?  or just run ubuntu?
[02:10] <servers> what if I use wine I still dont need an antivirus?
[02:10] <LinuxJones> fluxt: have you run chkrootkit to confirm you have been rooted ?
 dual
[02:10] <LinuxJones> servers: no you don't
[02:10] <fluxt> LinuxJones, nah, i just thought i'd ask ahead of time :)
[02:11] <redguy|work> servers: hmm, AFAIR most viruses are not compatible with wine :-)
[02:11] <chuckyp> marten71, well then you can only use the free space availble on the drive.  If you don't have any you'd have to shrink the space of what ever os intsalled is using.
[02:11] <servers> linuxboy and do I need a firewall?
[02:12] <chuckyp> servers, depends how paranoid you are.
[02:12] <LinuxJones> fluxt: it never hurts to run chkrootkit because you never know :)
[02:12] <thegladiator> yo
[02:12] <redguy|work> !firestarter
[02:12] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
[02:12] <Frogzoo> redguy|work: but as wine compatability gets better.... wine's eventual goal is full compatability - so viruses eventually should work 'properly' :)
[02:13] <LinuxJones> servers: are you running services for users from the internet/intranet ?
[02:13] <servers> what do u mean? :/
[02:13] <vinicius_> erm... *does anyone know how* i can get rid of the extra firefox.bin process (i got the latest 1.5.1 installed at opt) without remove it completely? i just messed with the whole gnome installation removing firefox that came with it
[02:13] <fluxt> LinuxJones, i just did lol
[02:13] <katarot> the ifconfig show two eth0 and lo
[02:13] <LinuxJones> servers: are you running like a ftp or web server for others to use ?
[02:14] <chuckyp> vinicius_, kill the process
[02:14] <servers> linuxboy no
[02:14] <vinicius_> but. everytime?
[02:14] <redguy|work> Frogzoo: :-) darn, so untill then we won't get proper viruses? This is an issue which should be brought to wine developers! I want to have full windows experience on mu linux box!
[02:14] <chuckyp> vinicius_, what do you mean everytime?
[02:14] <LinuxJones> servers: do you have a router to connect to the internet ?
[02:14] <vinicius_> everytime i start the system?
[02:15] <chuckyp> vinicius_, okay so when you start the system firefox opens?
[02:15] <servers> linuxboy Yes, i guess so
so after i made the partion it stopps when it is going to install the system
[02:15] <vinicius_> no, not exactly
[02:15] <vinicius_> it keeps loaded on memory sleeping
[02:15] <chuckyp> vinicius_, I don't understand the problem?
[02:15] <servers> btw does firestarter works even if I dont open it?
[02:16] <gnomefreak> servers: yes
[02:16] <Frogzoo> servers: yes - it's started from /etc/rc2.d
[02:16] <chuckyp> vinicius_, if you don't have firefox open it shouldn't be running a process in the background
[02:16] <katarot> i have installed the bcmlw5.inf but when i type sudo ndiswrapper -l it says it an invalid driver
[02:16] <LinuxJones> servers: chances are your router has some firewalling built in. It's easy to check goto www.grc.com and do the shieldsup test.
[02:16] <marlun> I don't really know where to ask this question but I'll do it here: I'm compiling a software but when I do "make" I get multiple warnings where it says that something has a  modification time in the future, what does this mean!?
[02:16] <gnomefreak> ff has had issues with mem leaks
[02:16] <fluxt> LinuxJones, chkrootkit is so old i doubt it would pick up anything new at all
[02:17] <vinicius_> but i just dont use it (the one that comes with ubuntu is the 1.0.7), so when i open the newer installed version, the old one remains loaded at memory
[02:17] <marlun> Also a message like this is shown in the end: "Clock skew detected.  Your build may be incomplete."
[02:17] <redguy|work> marlun: wat does date say?
[02:17] <chuckyp> vinicius_, can you remove the old one with apt.
[02:17] <vinicius_> two processes, the 1.0.7 (with the globe icon) and the newer one (normal icon)
[02:18] <LinuxJones> servers: the good thing about firestarter is that it will let you know when someone scans your system, but if your router acts like a proxy server to the net it won't show nay hits because they are blocked upstream from your systems firewall.
[02:18] <Frogzoo> marlun: it means you extracted a tar from a machine with an incorrectly set clock
[02:18] <vinicius_> thats what im talking about! =)
[02:18] <chuckyp> vinicius_, and how did you install the "new" one?
[02:18] <vinicius_> yeah, sure
[02:18] <marten71> i cant install the base system
[02:18] <redguy|work> marlun: what progam are you compiling anyway? maybe you don't have to compile it, because it's somewhere in the repos?
[02:18] <LinuxJones> fluxt: your running breezy ?
[02:18] <marlun> Frogzoo: argh! thats not good.
[02:18] <fiveiron> hmmm.. are there any open source apps to actually format a disk in fat32?
[02:18] <marlun> redguy|work: I need to compile it since it on my web host :)
[02:18] <chuckyp> fiveiron, mkfs.vfat
[02:19] <vinicius_> the problem is that im going to do a reinstall, so i want to make the right thing this time
[02:19] <redguy|work> marlun :-)
[02:19] <chuckyp> vinicius_, well follow the ubuntu wiki for instlaling ff1.5 then.
[02:19] <chuckyp> !ff1.5
[02:19] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[02:19] <marlun> redguy|work: the date command says: Wed Mar 15 05:19:17 PST 2006
[02:19] <Frogzoo> marlun: find . -exec touch {} \;    should fix it...
[02:19] <fluxt> LinuxJones, yes
[02:19] <stoned> hey
[02:20] <LinuxJones> fluxt: in that case you can install a file integrity checker like aide and have it do an md5 sum on all your important directories like /usr and /etc. Then run a check on the files as a cron job and email the results to you.
[02:20] <stoned> i have no idea where I am, or what year this is, when is dapper coming out?
[02:20] <chuckyp> !dapper
[02:20] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[02:20] <marlun> Frogzoo: what does that do?
[02:20] <fluxt> LinuxJones, that's a great idea. thanks :D
[02:20] <Frogzoo> stoned: 20 april + 6 weeks
[02:20] <LinuxJones> fluxt: so if a file changes or gets updated you will kow about it
[02:20] <stoned> what month is this?
[02:20] <s_spiff> guys...how do i locate broken packages??? someone help fast!
[02:20] <thegladiator> march
[02:21] <stoned> oh hmm
[02:21] <stoned> really
[02:21] <thegladiator> Frogzoo, its delayed ?
[02:21] <vinicius_> chuckyp, installing is not the problem, i already followed the wiki to install, the problem is that i want to intall the latest version *and* get rid of the old one (wich remais loaded everytime i open the 1.5.1)
[02:21] <stoned> I thought it was valentines just last week dude
[02:21] <Frogzoo> marlun: sets the modification time to now
[02:21] <Frogzoo> on all files
[02:21] <dexil> Humm, is there a big difference between the 5.04 release and the 5.10?
[02:21] <chuckyp> vinicius_, remove it with sudo apt-get --purge remove firefox
[02:21] <marlun> Frogzoo: should I do that on every file in my home directory?
[02:21] <stoned> hmm.  Is dapper stable enough to be used at?  I mean it is only a month away right
[02:21] <Frogzoo> dexil: how long is a piece of string?
[02:21] <thegladiator> dexil, yes better stability
[02:22] <LinuxJones> dexil: yeah it's much quicker in many areas which is a good thing :)
[02:22] <vinicius_> chuckyp, no dependencies left behind then?
[02:22] <Frogzoo> marlun: no - run the find from the directory you're compiling/running make in
[02:22] <gnomefreak> stoned: it may be released later than april
[02:22] <thegladiator> dexil, also new packages , less bugs
[02:22] <katarot> guys do any of you know why i get invelid driver im done everything exactly from the wiki
[02:22] <dexil> Can you update it? or do i have do a new install?
[02:22] <redguy|work> marlun: try find -exec touch '{}' \;
[02:22] <s_spiff> guys need help...how to locate broken packages?
[02:22] <dexil> can i*
[02:22] <Frogzoo> gnomefreak: I'd say consensus was +6 weeks
[02:22] <thegladiator> update is possible
[02:22] <chuckyp> vinicius_, I don't know you can do an apt-cache showpkg firefox and see what dependencies it has.
[02:22] <gnomefreak> s_fix them or locate them?
[02:22] <marlun> Frogzoo: ok, thanks
[02:22] <chuckyp> vinicius_, DON"T DO THAT NEVER MINE
[02:23] <LinuxJones> katarot: is this a wireless card your trying to get working ?
[02:23] <vinicius_> chuckyp?
[02:23] <gnomefreak> Frogzoo: i agree but i dont know the board memebers that well to say
[02:23] <redguy|work> marlun: it should set the mtime on all files (execpt for the ones beginning with a '.') in current directory and it's subdirecories
[02:23] <chuckyp> vinicius_, that will break yelp and a whole bunch of stuff
[02:23] <s_spiff> how to locate broken packages?
[02:23] <stoned> gnomefreak, is dapper stable enough to use atm
[02:23] <gnomefreak> s_spiff: to fix or locate only?
[02:23] <Cyorxamp> Hi folks, I just installed swat on my ubuntu machine and I can't seem to access localhost:901 (where its supposed to be) I have checked the services file and it looks ok - any ideas!?
[02:23] <marlun> redguy|work: Frogzoo, allready told me to do that :P
[02:23] <marten71> shit it dont work
[02:23] <vinicius_> yeah, i know, thats why im using kde right now =)
[02:23] <dexil> brings my to my next question, how do I update it?
[02:23] <Frogzoo> gnomefreak: well sabdfl pays the bills ;)
[02:23] <katarot> yes
[02:23] <s_spiff> fix..removie anything is fine with me
[02:23] <gnomefreak> stoned: it still has alot of bugs that are gonna be fixed
[02:23] <marlun> Frogzoo: I did that command, and after that a "make clean" and then i got alot of the same warnings for example: make[1] : Warning: File `Makefile.depends' has modification time 2.9 s in the future
[02:23] <katarot> dell wireless mini
[02:23] <gnomefreak> s_spiff: sudo apt-get -f install
[02:23] <stoned> gnomefreak, why does ubuntu default to gnome?
[02:24] <redguy|work> marlun: darn, didn't see taht sorry
[02:24] <thegladiator> stoned, stable enough to yes perhpas , #ubuntu-l
[02:24] <gnomefreak> stoned: because lubuntu is kde
[02:24] <thegladiator> use*
[02:24] <zyth> stoned, cause you didn't pick kubuntu
[02:24] <gnomefreak> #ubuntu+1
[02:24] <marlun> redguy|work: no worries :) nice of you to tell me about it.
[02:24] <Frogzoo> marlun: try it once again, now?
[02:24] <LinuxJones> katarot: what is the page on the wiki you were using ?
[02:24] <stoned> zyth, I run sid
[02:24] <marlun> Frogzoo: make or the time changin command? =)
[02:24] <stoned> zyth, I didn't like breezy, so I am on sid, will wait on dapper though
[02:24] <redguy|work> marlun: is your clock running backwards??
[02:24] <vinicius_> (sorry if im not making myself clear enough, english is not my mother tongue)
[02:24] <s_spiff> gnomefreak, thanks again man!
[02:24] <Frogzoo> marlun: make clean ; make depends ; make
[02:25] <gnomefreak> stoned: unstable dapper is not like unstable debian
[02:25] <chuckyp> vinicius_, I think you missed the step in the wiki about the default version
[02:25] <gnomefreak> s_spiff: anytime
[02:25] <marlun> redguy|work: mine? I'm on my webhosts computer :P
[02:25] <dexil> im a noob at ubuntu, started with it yesterday. Is there a guide or something for updating ubuntu to 5.10?
[02:25] <marten71> thanks for the help but it is back to xp
[02:25] <servers> linuxboy I did the test and I got every port in stealth is that good?
[02:25] <vinicius_> hmm, i will check it again then
[02:25] <Frogzoo> !tell dexil about upgrade
[02:25] <redguy|work> !upgrade
[02:25] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade.  Upgrading to dapper (remember it may break). Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html.
[02:25] <chuckyp> marten71, what happened?
[02:25] <redguy|work> darn again
[02:25] <Cyorxamp> Hi folks, I just installed swat on my ubuntu machine and I can't seem to access localhost:901 (where its supposed to be) I have checked the services file and it looks ok - any ideas!?
[02:25] <vinicius_> anyway, thanks for the help (and sorry to take your time dude)
[02:25] <LinuxJones> servers: perfect your system is invisible to portscans from the net :)
[02:25] <katarot> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx?highlight=%28bcm43xx%29
[02:25] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: /etc/inetd.conf?
[02:26] <servers> kool thnx for the info :>
 i did try to install it but it could not install the base system
[02:26] <dexil> Should i use breezy or dapper?
[02:26] <chuckyp> marten71, did you get any errors?
[02:26] <gnomefreak> servers: i got same that means that they are blocked somewhere between pc and internet (router/isp)
[02:26] <Frogzoo> Cyorxamp: /etc/hosts.allow ?
and i dont know what to do
[02:26] <chuckyp> marten71, and how are you trying to install?
[02:26] <s_spiff> gnomefreak, i use a pppoe based connection ...so i have to initiate the connect by using the command : pon dsl-proivder
[02:26] <katarot> iv read other ones and did them also
[02:26] <Cyorxamp> Frogzoo,  redguy|work, - what about them?
[02:26] <marlun> Frogzoo: But what I'm compiling depends on python which I just installed without any errors, and it seems like when I compile this it complains about the python files too, should I change the modification time on them too?
[02:26] <marten71> as the only system on my laptop
[02:26] <martyv> !tell all about upgrade
[02:26] <babo>  My lost+found folder is huge, but when I check it - it tells me that there are no files ?
as the only system on my laptop
[02:27] <LinuxJones> katarot: I have that card but don't have a wireless router to check. Did you re-boot your computer since following the wiki ?
[02:27] <s_spiff> is there a dialer or something like a script which will execute that a t boot?
[02:27] <chuckyp> marten71, well if you are installing it as the only system you can tell it to wipe the drive and use allt he space.
[02:27] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, - "#<off># swat		stream	tcp	nowait.400	root	/usr/sbin/tcpd	/usr/sbin/swat"  in that file
 i did
[02:27] <gnomefreak> dexil: i say if it breaks you can fix it go for it but just as today it broke
[02:27] <Cyorxamp> Frogzoo, nothing in that file but comments
[02:27] <chuckyp> marten71, and what happened?
 still it cant install
[02:27] <pivete> procuro minha alma gemea
[02:27] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: well, uncomment that line
[02:28] <LinuxJones> katarot: open a terminal and type sudo -s (enter your user password)
[02:28] <chuckyp> marten71, well I can't really help you unless you tell me if you got an error or where it stopped etc...
[02:28] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: you might need to restart inetd for the change to have effect
it said no cd or mirror could be found
[02:28] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, is there a quick way of restarting services?
[02:28] <chuckyp> marten71, are you trying to install dapper?
is it the dvd that are broken
it is the nr4 i have tryied
[02:29] <chuckyp> marten71, nr4?   Are you trying to install breezy or dapper?
dapper?
[02:29] <dexil> ok, tnx gnomefreak. I'll go for breezy then
[02:29] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: the proper way would be invoke-rc.d inetd restart.
[02:29] <Frogzoo> marlun: find which files its complaining about their time set in the future with ls -l
[02:29] <chuckyp> marten71, like where did you download it from?
[02:29] <g0dchild> !azureus
[02:29] <ubotu> I guess azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[02:29] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: you could also do it wit /etc/init.d/inetd restart
[02:29] <marten71> i am not really sure i got the dvd from the site
[02:30] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, command not found
[02:30] <gnomefreak> marten71: what site
[02:30] <katarot> could my problem be with my belkin g router
[02:30] <fluxt> how do i setup a cron job without typing cron into google? :p
[02:30] <g0dchild> how do i add the bleeding edge repositories to synaptic?
[02:30] <marten71> Ubuntu
[02:30] <chuckyp> marten71, that could be your problem try getting an iso from here http://www.ubuntu.com/download
[02:30] <marlun> Frogzoo: did your last message miss a word because I don't understand it, should I "check" if their time is set in the future with ls -l?
[02:30] <LinuxJones> katarot:  is your card listed and activated in the networking config menu ?
thats where i got it
[02:30] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: invoke-rc.d ??
[02:30] <gnomefreak> g0dchild: dont
[02:30] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, either of them
[02:30] <katarot> no
[02:31] <_jason> g0dchild: you would update to dapper, but I wouldn't on my main system
[02:31] <LinuxJones> katarot: open a terminal and type sudo -s (enter your user password)
[02:31] <erez> how do i read data from another computer on the network via the command line?
[02:31] <g0dchild> i'd really like the latest multimedia apps though...(pouts)
[02:31] <fluxt> g0dchild, i'd remove ubuntu and install archlinux
[02:31] <Frogzoo> marlun: if ls -l shows the file was created at a time in the future, make will complain
[02:31] <chuckyp> marten71, okay,  one thing to try would be burning it at a lower speed.  And also I noticed my laptop does this with the dapper install and I just hit retry and then it goes to menu and I hit find cdrom and it will find it the second time.
[02:31] <_jason> g0dchild: like which ones? best would be to compile your favorites
[02:31] <gnomefreak> g0dchild: you cant mix the repos so if you change all your repos you would be upgrading to dapper
[02:31] <stoned> irc is pissing me off
[02:31] <marlun> Frogzoo: ok, will check :) thanks
[02:31] <katarot> ok i have  done that
[02:31] <stoned> why do people spam on irc
[02:31] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, invoke-rc.d says it cant find script /etc/init.d/inetd and also inetd does not exist there
[02:32] <stoned> i mean seriously, don' they know nobody clicks on these websites
[02:32] <LinuxJones> katarot:  do modprobe ndiswrapper
[02:32] <gnomefreak> stoned: please join #ubuntu-offtopic for that convo
[02:32] <LinuxJones> katarot:  did any errors come up ?
[02:32] <rburton> so dapper seems to think that every FAT filesystem i have is corrupt, "fat_free_clusters: deleting FAT entry beyond EOF File system has been set read-only".  this happens with my ipod and two CF cards.  known problem?
ok i will try burn it slow
[02:32] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: hmmm, that's odd
[02:32] <rburton> or are all of my disks brokenb
[02:32] <martyv> !codecs
[02:32] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories
[02:32] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, I am getting it using apt-get
[02:32] <katarot> nothing came up
[02:33] <g0dchild> _jason, compiling- now that I like- so if i were to download sources, i'll need to use the command line I gather? not that its a problem
[02:33] <LinuxJones> katarot:  ok great now do network-admin and your card should be listed
[02:33] <gnomefreak> rburton: #ubuntu+1 for dapper please
[02:33] <chuckyp> rburton, #ubuntu+1 is for dapper
[02:33] <chuckyp> lol
[02:33] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, all works now - thanx!
[02:33] <rburton> doh ;)
[02:33] <gnomefreak> ;)
[02:33] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: cool, odd that you didn't have inetd installed by default
[02:33] <Angel_Dex> How do i get more icons in my piximaps folder? >.>
[02:34] <LinuxJones> katarot:  click it then configure it for your wireless network and you should be good to go
[02:34] <[BreliC] > g0dchild: how can you like compiling if you've never done it?  :)
[02:34] <gnomefreak> Angel_Dex: there is  a package for extra icons in synaptic
[02:34] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, well this is a new 'server' ubuntu install with xubuntu (basically the xfce desktop environment) put on top
[02:34] <brunito> holaa
[02:34] <Angel_Dex> gnomefreak the one that adds extra icon themes or extra acutal icons?
[02:34] <_jason> g0dchild: yeah, I compile mplayer when new versions come out, I'll have the bot send you a link about compiling.  SO for mplayer for example, I just removed the repository package for mplayer.  compiled, used checkinstall to make a deb and install it.  The only problem is you don't have the convenience of easy updates, you'll always have to compile again when a new version comes out
[02:34] <_jason> ubotu: tell g0dchild about compile
[02:34] <gnomefreak> g0dchild: compiling is not a short process)
[02:35] <LinuxJones> katarot:  is your card listed and can you configure it ?
[02:35] <gnomefreak> Angel_Dex: there are seperate packages for themes and icons
[02:35] <fluxt> ok so now i just have to add nice 19 aide -C to cron ....
[02:35] <g0dchild> [129-CarNagE] , dont be so sure- well...not from debian/ubuntu like systems....i switched from gentoo...whose distribution system is a tad bit flexible than apt-get
[02:35] <Angel_Dex> gnomefreak Gnome-extra-icons?
[02:35] <gnomefreak> Angel_Dex: i dont remember off hand
[02:36] <katarot> no it not here
[02:36] <redguy|work> Cyorxamp: still, I find it odd. Propably nothing to worry about though
[02:36] <gnomefreak> theres something like 5th wheel or something use synaptic and search
[02:37] <LinuxJones> katarot:  you didn't install the windows driver correctly go back to the wiki and try again
[02:37] <Angel_Dex> Optional GNOME icons from http://art.gnome.org/
[02:37] <katarot> ok thanks
[02:37] <chuckyp> katarot, what type of card?
[02:37] <mcf501> hey, is there a way to enable numlock on startup?
[02:37] <redguy|work> mcf501: I am certain there is
[02:37] <Frogzoo> !numlock
[02:37] <ubotu> methinks numlock is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NumLock
[02:38] <LinuxJones> chuckyp: he's got a broadcom 43** wireless card
[02:38] <djk_> what's the name of the passwordbugfix package?
[02:38] <chuckyp> LinuxJones, ahh lots of problems with those lately I think people are trying to use their cd drivers instead of the drivers from ndiswrapper's site.
[02:38] <katarot> emm i on windows xp it says its a dell wireless mini but on ubuntu when i press lspci it says it a broadcom
[02:38] <riaal> whats a "program startup script" that can start and stop a program called? where do i find info about it?
[02:38] <_jason> ubotu: tell djk_ about installerbug
[02:38] <Frogzoo> djk_: just 'sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade'
[02:39] <G0SUB> djk_ it will come from security repo automatically
[02:39] <chuckyp> riaal, I gave you all the info about it already
[02:39] <djk_> Frogzoo: err, no. that would upgrade too much
[02:39] <riaal> chuckyp, http://www.debianhelp.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=3306 ?
[02:39] <G0SUB> djk_ add just the security repo in your sources.list
[02:40] <chuckyp> riaal, theres /etc/init.d/skeleton   if you read that.  And the link I sent you
[02:40] <Angel_Dex> i need like extra icons app wise
[02:41] <riaal> chuckyp, ok i will read it, thanks
[02:41] <mcf501> thanks
[02:43] <rssjam005> can anyonehelp me with making a makefile please??
[02:43] <ndlovu_> hi all. something's constantly accessing my hard disk and slowing things down to a crawl. Any idea how to identify what's going on? I suspect it's a hardware problem since it started quite suddenly, but the smart tools don't identify anything too strange...
[02:43] <katarot> ok i m removing my failed attempts
[02:43] <gnomefreak> ndlovu_: you can try to find it using ps aux
[02:43] <Kamping_Kaiser> rssjam005: no, proably not in any meaning full way
[02:44] <fluxt> !cron
[02:44] <ubotu> fluxt: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:44] <rssjam005> whys that?

[02:44] <robinl1> ubotu: Yes
[02:44] <ubotu> Yes, yes! Yes indeed. Who would have thunk it, eh, robinl1?
[02:44] <ndlovu_> Frogzoo: could be, how would I know?
[02:44] <robinl1> thought*
[02:44] <robinl1> :P
[02:45] <gnomefreak> ndlovu_: it lists the processes that are running
[02:45] <kbrooks> who is robinl1
[02:45] <rssjam005> what libraries would i use in a makefile which compiles a cpp programs with iostream??
[02:45] <kbrooks> and is he aloud to use the bot
[02:45] <Frogzoo> ndlovu_: run top -> pastebin
[02:45] <kbrooks> hmmm, i see robinl1 is yet another bot, and that heis not aloud to use "ubotu".
[02:45] <Kamping_Kaiser> rssjam005: iostream is part of the base libraries. if you have build-essential you have it
[02:46] <ndlovu_> Kamping_Kaiser: I'm not putting too much faith in the smart info...
[02:46] <rssjam005> so i dont have a add any libraries?
[02:46] <ndlovu_> Frogzoo: it's not doing any reads right now, but I'll copy top output to pastebin as soon as it starts
[02:46] <MekanzoO> hey..
[02:46] <Kamping_Kaiser> rssjam005:try it
[02:46] <MekanzoO> can anyone help me?
[02:47] <LinuxJones> MekanzoO: jsut ask your question :)
[02:47] <ndlovu_> Frogzoo: I've checked top before, but it doesn't seem to indicateanything that's taking a lot of cpu cycles
[02:47] <MekanzoO> cool :)
[02:47] <MekanzoO> how do I see file permission?
[02:47] <MekanzoO> in terminal
[02:47] <Frogzoo> ndlovu_: hit "m" - it will sort procs by memory usage
[02:47] <_jason> MekanzoO: ls -l file
[02:47] <LinuxJones> MekanzoO: on a single file or directory ?
[02:47] <rssjam005> "undefined reference to `std::basic_ostream" <--- i get that
[02:47] <rssjam005> and much more
[02:48] <MekanzoO> single file and directory
[02:48] <MekanzoO> thx jason
[02:48] <Frogzoo> ndlovu_: my bad "M"
[02:48] <HymnToLife> question : how do I restart a network interface from command line ?
[02:48] <_jason> MekanzoO: for a directory you do 'ls -ld directory', otherwise it will list it for the files inside the directory
[02:48] <HymnToLife> sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart doesn't seem to work
[02:48] <LinuxJones> MekanzoO: follow _jason 's suggestion from a terminal or right click teh file/dir and select properties then select the permissions tab
[02:49] <MekanzoO> oh ok..
[02:49] <MekanzoO> thank you..
[02:49] <Frogzoo> HymnToLife: sudo ifdown INT ; sudo ifup INT
[02:49] <LinuxJones> MekanzoO: :)
[02:49] <HymnToLife> thanks ^^
[02:51] <Frogzoo> ndlovu_: also, try sudo smartctl -H /dev/hda
[02:51] <erez> can anyone tell me how can i read data from another computer on the network via the command line?
[02:51] <MekanzoO> got more question..
[02:51] <MekanzoO> I got hda1 on desktop..  but cant open it... it says dont have the permission
[02:51] <_jason> erez: ssh
[02:51] <HymnToLife> erez> ssh
[02:52] <erez> thanks.
[02:52] <_jason> MekanzoO: what filesystem?
[02:52] <MekanzoO> ntfs
[02:52] <_jason> ubotu: tell MekanzoO about ntfs
[02:52] <srid> I'm using dapper flight 3/4. My mplayer has sync problems with .avi movies. Totem/xine doesn't even play it. Any solution?
[02:52] <HymnToLife> goddamnit, Windows stinks :/
[02:52] <poly> !w32codecs
[02:52] <ubotu> somebody said w32codecs was 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
[02:52] <_jason> MekanzoO: pay attention to the table of options about permissions towards the middle of that wiki page in your private message
[02:53] <HymnToLife> for 3 days I've searched how to do something you can do by editing /etc/hosts on linux
[02:53] <MekanzoO> ok.. thank you..

[03:03] <katarot> thanks
[03:03] <kkaisare> I'm running Ubuntu 5.10 ( Breezy Badger ) which, when I chose it, installed Firefox 1.0.7 using the Synaptic Package Manager. I've selected the updates, standard, and security updates repositories. I've been looking out for the Firefox 1.5 package - apparently none of these repositories has it. Am I missing a repository here?
[03:03] <ndlovu_> Frogzoo: like working in toffee at the moment... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10290
[03:03] <jadaz87> icetox: your password for the initial account is the root password
[03:03] <fluxt> LinuxJones, aide is setup and crond :)
[03:04] <IceTox> jadaz87, I am not the root user.. There's always a /root. Now, I know there's a way to set the root passwd. by "passwd root" or something, cause I've done it before.
[03:05] <Zvjer> hi
[03:05] <Zvjer> dou you guys anyone play with compiz?
[03:05] <IceTox> jadaz87, afterall, if I were the root user, I wouldn't have to use sudo, now would I?
[03:05] <fluxt> IceTox, sudo passwd

[03:05] <jadaz87> icetox: yes you still do
[03:06] <Zvjer> I installed compiz 0.0.2 from dapper repo .. I'm now looking for a newer version
[03:06] <fluxt> IceTox, i should mention the first password will be your user one :)
[03:06] <jadaz87> fluxt: yeap :)
[03:06] <katarot> got to go this computer is not my own and the owner wants it back lol
[03:06] <LinuxJones> fluxt: excellent it's probably a good idea to set your cron script to apt-get --purge remove chkrootkit after it checks your system. Next time your cron is scheduled to do a scan have it download and install from the ubuntu repos a fresh copy. If someone should gain access to your system aide can be replaced with a rooted version itself if someone should get into your system....you follow :)
[03:07] <Jimmey__> Flight5 just isn't working for me; I've not had one iso that's not been bad
[03:07] <IceTox> yeah, so I got it fluxt.. thanks :-)
[03:07] <Zvjer> no one here plays with XGL? :)
[03:07] <IceTox> thanks for your help too jadaz87, but I'm still not root ;)
[03:08] <fluxt> LinuxJones, hmm, i didn't set chkrootkit to do that, another great idea :) thanks again. does chkrootkit check aide?
[03:08] <Frogzoo> ndlovu_: looks like the disk is not cooperating - if there's no great io load atm - check /var/log/messages for disk failure messages & consider backing up important files _now_
[03:09] <jadaz87> icetox: hahaha

[03:09] <mcquaid> anyone use a voodoo card here?

[03:10] <jadaz87> now if only i can get my broadcom/ndiswrapper to connect to wireless networks instead of just being able to see them :(

[03:16] <robinl1> i'm NOT in gnome
[03:17] <fluxt> LinuxJones, seems ok to purge remove with the --force-yes switch, but on reinstall it brings up a config menu :/
[03:18] <Frogzoo> ndlovu__: I'm not sure the disk is failing - just needed to be sure that you're backed up if that is the problem - I'd think smartutils would have picked up a problem if the disk was dying - I think there's a process writing to disk, & hogging io - the trick is finding out which process it is
[03:18] <redguy|work> !tell Cyorxamp abou root
[03:18] <redguy|work> !tell Cyorxamp about root
[03:18] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, wow... thats bollox - why on earth do that!
[03:18] <redguy|work> secirity
[03:18] <ndlovu__> Frogzoo: okay, any ideas how to identify it?
[03:18] <redguy|work> security
[03:18] <Frogzoo> ndlovu__: first step is to do another df - & compare with the one you pasted - see if there's any movement on any one file system
[03:19] <Cyorxamp> redguy|work, surely I use my root password when sudo-ing ?
[03:19] <redguy|work> no
[03:19] <LinuxJones> fluxt: upon re-install it would have to be used oin conjunction with a script that say reads the cdrw and uses the last known good database (which would mean using something like a date/time naming scheme to name the files that get burned on the cdrw drive)
[03:20] <_jason> Cyorxamp: your shouldn't have even set a root password
[03:20] <redguy|work> you use your regular account password when using sudo
[03:20] <ndlovu__> Frogzoo: only change is /tmp up to 8503... /var up by 1
[03:20] <ege> #nick ege
[03:20] <Cyorxamp> _jason, doesn't ubuntu set a root password anyway upon install?
[03:20] <Keloran|Work> how can i fix this ?? http://pastebin.com/603433 (apt-get -f install, doesnt fix it)
[03:20] <robinl1> How to set the speed of the xkb mousekeys? i need it for my games
[03:21] <_jason> Cyorxamp: root is locked
[03:21] <Kamping_Kaiser> Cyorxamp: no it doesnt
[03:21] <Frogzoo> ndlovu__: ok, fuser -c /tmp & check which of those proc ids is active
[03:21] <LinuxJones> fluxt: that would be a cool project I think I'm gonna start it next week
[03:21] <Cyorxamp> wow I am in!
[03:21] <fluxt> LinuxJones, yes i'll need to make some scripts to burn it to cd
[03:22] <Kamping_Kaiser> Keloran|Work: run `sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /path/to/deb`
[03:22] <henrik_> hello
[03:22] <henrik_> just testing
[03:22] <LinuxJones> fluxt: it's a pretty usefull little project :)
[03:22] <fluxt> LinuxJones, and for the record, it was nice -n 19 aide -C :)
[03:23] <fluxt> LinuxJones, yeah definatly although it would scare off most users :)
[03:23] <katarot> sorry about that my brother wanted his computer back lol
[03:24] <katarot> linuxjones i got the .conf file
[03:24] <servers> is there any subsitute for winamp on linux?
[03:25] <Kamping_Kaiser> xmms
[03:25] <Kamping_Kaiser> or beep-media-player
[03:25] <Frogzoo> ndlovu_: might be quicker to try 'du -sk /tmp/* > /tmp a ; sleep 20 ; du -sk /tmp/* > /tmp/b ; diff /tmp/a /tmp/b
[03:25] <fluxt> you can even use the winamp skins in xmms
[03:25] <avalost> use amarok
[03:25] <avalost> it blows beep and xmms away
[03:26] <servers> beep sux I tried it
[03:26] <katarot> can i paste what it said here
[03:26] <EvilDin> am why i get eroor when sudo apt-get update ---> /var/lib/apt/lists/security.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy-updates_multiverse_binary-i386_Packages ---> that it cannot some to that list - and say that there is no such file, and stop update! What command should i use that whole update would be downloaded again
[03:26] <Blippe> !pastepin
[03:26] <ubotu> Blippe: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:26] <fluxt> xmms is pretty lightweight, how about amarok?
[03:26] <Kamping_Kaiser> avalost: it's not a substitute to xmms
[03:26] <avalost> Kamping_Kaiser: how is it not?
[03:27] <Kamping_Kaiser> avalost: it's a full screen app that does anything you can poke a stick at to media files, xmms plays audo files
[03:27] <avalost> Kamping_Kaiser: does it not play media like mp3, ogg, etc?
[03:27] <Kamping_Kaiser> and is inconspicous etc
[03:27] <thegladiator> amarok is not light weight but good if you want to manage a library
[03:27] <avalost> that would classify as an alternative to me
[03:27] <jadaz87> can anyone tell me how to update the kernel? i have 2.6.12-9-386
[03:27] <Frogzoo> is there a linux analog of solaris's iostat ?
[03:27] <avalost> Kamping_Kaiser: amarok has a wiindowshade mode that simulates a smaller player like xmms
[03:27] <thegladiator> in short if you like to random play ur mp3 while browsing ur song folders , xmms . if you prefer to have a vast and neatly organised library , amarok
[03:28] <servers> I need something that can handle 3k songs on playlist
[03:28] <thegladiator> Frogzoo, ifconfig is diff ?
[03:28] <Kamping_Kaiser> jadaz87: make sure you have updates and security enabled, as thre is a newkernel in there
[03:28] <Blippe> amarok is xmms with a database and a browser...
[03:28] <djk_> how do i check if a system is still alright after several aborted bootups and bootcrashes (due to the hotplugsubsystem)?
[03:28] <avalost> I once used xmms/beep, since finding amarok I have never looked back
[03:28] <Kamping_Kaiser> thegladiator: that's abotu what imj trying to say, yeh :)
[03:28] <jadaz87> Kamping_Kaiser: how can i know if i have them enabled or not?
[03:28] <avalost> and I don't even like KDE, I installed kdebase just to use amarok
[03:28] <thegladiator> :-)
[03:29] <Kamping_Kaiser> xmms in this ase has the benefit of not pulling in half of KDE
[03:29] <fluxt> i'd rather the lightweight xmms i think
[03:29] <Frogzoo> thegladiator: yes, iostat shows usage on different io channels - really neat for tracking down disk problems
[03:29] <fluxt> Kamping_Kaiser, or gnome for that matter ;)
[03:29] <Kamping_Kaiser> ;)
[03:30] <avalost> I used fluxbox religiously for years, since gnome 2.12 came out I have seen the light
[03:30] <avalost> before that, blackbox
[03:30] <Frogzoo> jadaz87: try apt-cache search linux-image & take your pick
[03:30] <Kamping_Kaiser> jadaz87: check in synaptic/ our soruces lsit
[03:30] <Kamping_Kaiser> *your
[03:31] <samjl> hey all
[03:31] <servers> does xmms play mp3?
[03:31] <fluxt> yes
[03:31] <Healot> jadaz87, or you could have mine instead
[03:31] <Healot> servers, by default yes...
[03:31] <samjl> its it a bad idea to use the root account as your? normal login
[03:32] <avalost> servers: if you didn't like beep media you prolly won't like xmms as beep is based on xmms
[03:32] <fluxt> yes
[03:32] <Kamping_Kaiser> samjl: yes
[03:32] <[BreliC] > Healot: really?  don't you have to install the codecs?
[03:32] <avalost> and beep has gone lightyears ahead of xmms
[03:32] <servers> hrmm I'll try it anywayz :)
[03:32] <Kamping_Kaiser> servers: you need to install codecs before it does mp3
[03:32] <samjl> ok
[03:32] <kode4u> I'v configured a nat server. But I found the computer in private network cann't use nat server as dns server. I had to use adsl modem's ip as dns address. How to deal with the problem?
[03:32] <Frogzoo> after you try amarok you don't go back to xmms
[03:32] <oskude> xmms plays mp3 without w32codecs...
[03:32] <avalost> try BMPx rather than the traditional beep media
[03:32] <[BreliC] > Frogzoo: exactly :)
[03:32] <servers> Kamping_Kaiser I think I already installed em cuz I can play mp3 with beep
[03:32] <avalost> it's pretty good
[03:33] <Kamping_Kaiser> servers: cool
[03:33] <fluxt> but avalost, xmms plays music just as good i imagine as my console mplayer and your heavy loading time amarok
[03:33] <[BreliC] > fluxt: yeah, but once it's loaded, what does it matter?
[03:33] <avalost> fluxt: yeah, but xmms has poor plugins and plugins support.
[03:33] <Healot> [BreliC] , the default package of xmms (at least in ubuntu) comes with the appropriate codecs
[03:33] <avalost> i'm willing to wait 13 seconds to load an app that will run all day without crashing
[03:33] <[BreliC] > fluxt: mpg123 plays faster than xmm
[03:33] <servers> I want something easy 2 use and with a good search on playlist like F3 on winamp
[03:33] <[BreliC] > *xmms
[03:33] <avalost> has extensive library management tools and a cd cover manager
[03:34] <avalost> and works with audioscrobbler without crashing every 5 songs
[03:34] <Mwafrica> Help with playing .wma files?
[03:34] <[BreliC] > servers: then amarok is great
[03:34] <fluxt> [BreliC] , xmms uses mpg123 ...
[03:34] <[BreliC] > fluxt: yes, but without the gui
[03:34] <martyn> just installed nvida driver how can i test to see if they have installed ok
[03:34] <fluxt> plays the same..
[03:35] <[BreliC] > fluxt: i know it plays the same.. i was just making the point that loading time doesn't really make a difference once it's loaded
[03:35] <[BreliC] > my amarok is always loaded
[03:35] <robinl1> how to configure XKB?
[03:35] <martyn> just installed nvida driver how can i test to see if they have installed ok
[03:35] <katarot> jadaz can you help me im still stuck lol
[03:35] <oskude> martyn, on ATI its "fglrx_glxgers" (or similar) maybe its the same with nvidia (but i doubt)
[03:35] <fluxt> [BreliC] , while it's loading it makes all the difference to me! :p
[03:36] <[BreliC] > martyn: restart your X server
[03:36] <servers> martyn restart and u should c nvidia logo on startup
[03:36] <Darky> hii
[03:36] <[BreliC] > fluxt: now you're just being picky :)
[03:36] <pun1ca> hi
[03:36] <martyn> yeah
[03:36] <jadaz87_> ghost jadaz87
[03:36] <martyn> done that i seen them,
[03:36] <Mwafrica> Hi guys... im new in Ubuntu.... anyone knows ba p2p program i can download mp3s?
[03:36] <[BreliC] > martyn: then it should be working
[03:36] <oskude> !mp3
[03:36] <ubotu> well, mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[03:36] <katarot> whats ghost lol is that a im
[03:36] <fluxt> [BreliC] , yep. all my app usage is basically based on functionality and performance
[03:36] <martyn> ok lol is there a way to get in to config them like on windows
[03:37] <jadaz87_> katarot i am on my ubuntu laptop through lan
[03:37] <jadaz87_> katarot lol
[03:37] <samjl> I have two blank fat32 partitions that I want to use for mp3's and videos and whatnot, but they automatically mount so that the root is the only user who can write to these drives, how can I change this?
[03:37] <pun1ca> have installed an apache2 with php .. everthing works all right and i created an .htaccess file but nothing happens so the prompt for the password doesnt appears. whats wrong ? the .htaccess-file is correct, i'm 100% sure that the file is correct
[03:37] <[BreliC] > fluxt: well, me too.. i would use xmms if amarok didn't dock
[03:37] <jadaz87_> katarot did you follow the instructions exactly?
[03:37] <samjl> I find amaroK a little restrictive in the layour
[03:37] <Darky> how can i turn my Terminal invisble...?
[03:37] <samjl> t
[03:38] <katarot> yes lol i dont know were i went wrong
[03:38] <fluxt> !mountwindows
[03:38] <ubotu> Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter to make your windows or mac partitions mount automatically.  If you wish to set it up yourself by hand, read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[03:38] <shukhrat> how can I know if gcc is installed?

[03:39] <shukhrat> fluxt, it says command not found
[03:39] <Teratogen> what's the difference between main and universe in the ftp archives?
[03:39] <Teratogen> there seems to be a lot of overlap
[03:39] <Frogzoo> is there any nifty tool that offers a user friendly way of displaying stats from /proc/diskstats ?
[03:39] <jadaz87_> are you able to see the wireless in the system>administration>network configuration?
[03:39] <robinl1> I want to switch off xkb mouse key acceleration, not mouse keys, but the acceleration mode - how to do that?

[03:45] <Darky> yeah..
[03:46] <[BreliC] > Darky: not supported by breezy.. are you on dapper?
[03:46] <fluxt> Darky, don't think it can be done
[03:46] <Darky> only the terminal..
[03:46] <jadaz87_> katarot: 2.                             sudo depmod -a
[03:46] <kp_> avalost: ill just reinstall later its not a problem it was just a testing box anyway.

[03:47] <oskude> riaal, maybe this can help http://www.tldp.net/LDP/abs/html/index.html
[03:47] <riaal> Kamping_Kaiser, that was what i hade some questions about? you mind taking it in private?
[03:47] <kp_> anyone have a radeon 9800? If so what are the ATI Drivers like..?

[03:50] <kp_> kbrooks: Woah
[03:50] <kbrooks> kp_: you can get caught for it
[03:50] <fluxt> kbrooks, but possible, not need be warez, you might own it
[03:50] <Kamping_Kaiser> kbrooks: doesnt mean he's not running it
[03:50] <kbrooks> kp_: DMCA anti-curcumvention provisions...
[03:50] <kp_> kbrooks: I also dropped a ciggerette butt on the floor earlier and you can get caught for that, your point is?
[03:50] <Healot> anyways, MacOSX was meant for Apple's
[03:50] <kbrooks> circumvention*
[03:51] <Healot> but Intel/Apple new PC does use OSX for Intel's CPU
[03:51] <kp_> Healot: Meant for apples but they have gone to Intel lol
[03:51] <shukhrat> where find PHP editor for Ubuntu ?
[03:51] <kbrooks> kp_: dropping a cig butt isn't arson.
[03:51] <fluxt> kbrooks, mine was never, i have a full hood thankyou
[03:51] <kp_> kbrooks: No but it's illegal here in the uk

[03:52] <kp_> kbrooks: You can get a fine
[03:52] <fluxt> !mountwindows
[03:52] <ubotu> Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter to make your windows or mac partitions mount automatically.  If you wish to set it up yourself by hand, read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[03:52] <kbrooks> kp_: no you cant.
[03:52] <kp_> kbrooks: Yes you can!
[03:52] <Healot> for specific PHP/HTML development... i recommend gphpedit
[03:52] <servers> where can I get kool visualizations for xmms?
[03:52] <kbrooks> kp_: whatever.
[03:52] <kp_> kbrooks: are you just being dumb?
[03:52] <kbrooks> kp_ no.
[03:53] <kp_> kbrooks: You really sound like you know what you're on about.. NOT.
[03:53] <jadaz87_> Kamping_Kaiser: software Updates still says that everything is up to date :( i followed the wiki
[03:53] <fluxt> !offtopic
[03:53] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[03:53] <Kamping_Kaiser> jadaz87_ hm.
[03:53] <shukhrat> oskude how i can install gphpedit ?
[03:54] <kbrooks> kp_: litter sucks though, and litter is ilegal in many countries, and since a cigbutt is technically litter when you drop it on the floor outside...
[03:54] <kp_> kbrooks: So.. What's so hard to believe that i have mac o/s running on a x86 machine?
[03:54] <MasterC> I am search a good plotting programm, does somebody know one?
[03:54] <moonstone> hello
[03:54] <kbrooks> kp_: how are you runing it?
[03:54] <MasterC> *searching
[03:55] <moonstone> im testing kororaa, what is "super key" ? need to know to zoom
[03:55] <oskude> shukhrat, sudo apt-get install gphedit (i assume)
[03:55] <kp_> kbrooks: I have a Disk Image running in Virtual Machine
[03:55] <Ron-> hey, i have got a shell script that requires interactive input from me. i created a link for it on my desktop. how would i make gnome open a terminal winow and run the script when clicking on the link?
[03:55] <jadaz87_> Kamping_Kaiser which software sources am i supposed to check just the community maintained ones that are for my version? 5.10?
[03:55] <kbrooks> kp_: yes. and where did you get the installationCD  from
[03:55] <Kamping_Kaiser> jadez87 brb
[03:56] <kp_> kbrooks: Does it matter?
[03:56] <Frogzoo> MasterC: gnuplot?
[03:56] <fluxt> moonstone, i think the "super key" is ctrl-alt-backspace
[03:56] <jadaz87_> kp_ actually i have Mac OS X too Mac OS X86 10.4.5
[03:56] <kbrooks> kp_: yes.
[03:56] <kp_> kbrooks: No it does'nt
[03:56] <kbrooks> kp_: it matters.
[03:56] <MasterC> Frogzoo: too complicated, don't like it
[03:56] <shukhrat> oskude: It say  Couldn't find package gphedit
[03:56] <fluxt> moonstone, but to zoom i'd use ctrl-alt-keypadplus or ctrl-alt-keypadminus
[03:56] <kbrooks> kp_ whatever.
[03:56] <oskude> !gphedit
[03:56] <ubotu> oskude: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:56] <Kamping_Kaiser> you lot. TAKE OS X TO OFFTOPIC
[03:56] <moonstone> fluxt: hmm.. no it isnt. im not newbie you fool :D
[03:56] <kp_> jadaz87_: Im glad somone know's its not impossible heh
[03:57] <oskude> shukhrat, well, dunno. it was not me who mentioned that software...
[03:57] <shukhrat> oskude: should i apt-get update ?
[03:57] <kp_> kbrooks: as jadaz87 has just said he's running it too
[03:57] <kbrooks> oskude, gphpedit
[03:57] <oskude> !gphpedit
[03:57] <ubotu> oskude: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:57] <moonstone> fluxt: does not work...
[03:57] <fluxt> laptop?
[03:57] <kbrooks> kp_: lets drop it OR put the discussion over at the offtopic house
[03:57] <moonstone> nope
[03:57] <kbrooks> kp_: you choose.
[03:58] <fluxt> moonstone, you're using the + and - on the keypad (far right)
[03:58] <fluxt> ?
[03:58] <kp_> kbrooks: You started it, ill do whatever i want.
[03:58] <moonstone> fluxt: thats right
[03:58] <Frogzoo> MasterC: apt-cache search plot     - take your pick
[03:58] <oskude> shukhrat, ok, the bot doesnt do packages anymore... "gphpedit" is in "universe" repo
[03:58] <kp_> kbrooks: Funny how people 'drop' things when they know there in the wrong
[03:58] <haggis> how do i get mp3 to play
[03:59] <fluxt> moonstone, then you probably don't have resolution setup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf or some other config problem
[03:59] <kp_> kbrooks: But. Whatever
[03:59] <moonstone> fluxt: hmm.. lets check...
[03:59] <kbrooks> kp_: be nice dude.
[03:59] <Frogzoo> haggis: aplay? xmms bmp amarok ...
[03:59] <kp_> kbrooks: I am being nice, and guess what? im not a dude.
[04:00] <shukhrat> oskude: now it's going to install i type wrong gphedit instead gphpedit
[04:00] <shukhrat> :)
[04:00] <Healot> gphpedit -
[04:00] <Healot> development environment for PHP/HTML/CSS
[04:00] <oskude> shukhrat, you can search packages in http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[04:01] <kbrooks> kp_: well,  guess what? "dude" == 'human'. everyone invented "dude" and now you can't uninvent it. so live with the new word, dude.
[04:01] <fluxt> kp_ kbrooks : while i find this interesting you should take the debate to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:01] <shukhrat> Thanks oskude
[04:02] <jadaz87_> can someone tell me which software sources i should have enabled under respositories?
[04:02] <fluxt> !multiverse
[04:02] <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
[04:03] <jadaz87_> should i enable all of them that are for my ubuntu edition?
[04:03] <_jason> jadaz87_: main restricted universe multiverse are typical
[04:03] <moonstone> yep, booting back to ubuntu ->
[04:03] <jadaz87_> so since i have ubuntu 5.10 just enable all of them that say that?
[04:03] <jadaz87_> because i folliwed that wiki already
[04:04] <jadaz87_> but it only tells you to enable the communiy maintained ones :(
[04:04] <ardchoille> Man, the ubuntuforums staff really screwed the pooch with their new layout.
[04:04] <oskude> jadaz87, i would advice NOT to enable "backports" ...
[04:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell jadaz87_ about easysource
[04:04] <servers> y I dont have permission 2 view my NSTF partition?
[04:04] <jadaz87_> what are backports?
[04:04] <_jason> jadaz87_: making a new /etc/apt/sources.list with that link the bot gave you is the easiest way imo
[04:04] <_jason> !backports
[04:04] <ubotu> it has been said that backports is Add "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-backports main universe multiverse restricted" (without the ") to /etc/apt/sources.list.  More info @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports
[04:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell servers about ntfs
[04:05] <thomas`> anyone know how i can write to my NTFS partition from ubuntu?
[04:05] <_jason> servers: pay attention to the table at the middle of the page that explains permissions
[04:05] <thomas`> and del to just tomanage it from linux
[04:05] <_jason> thomas`: you can't safely
[04:05] <snowblink> ardchoille, ? looks the same
[04:05] <thomas`> safely huh??
[04:05] <thomas`> =P
[04:05] <thomas`> bah
[04:05] <oskude> jadaz87, in every ubuntu version (like breezy) the program FOO will allways be 2.x. but if theres a FOO version 3.x it will only be in backports
[04:05] <haggis> what the comand to intall MP3 codecs
[04:05] <_jason> thomas`: well I hear it is possible, but it really isn't recommended if you care about the data on there
[04:05] <fluxt> thomas`, you can write files if you do not change the file size, you can't create or delete
[04:05] <_jason> ubotu: tell haggis about mp3
[04:05] <thomas`> well
[04:05] <thomas`> i was thinking about going pure linux soon
[04:06] <_jason> thomas`: good man
[04:06] <thomas`> once dapper rlses.. maybe ill keep windows 64 bit xp but i want to get all my stuff pure linux
[04:06] <thomas`> but i got a ton of mp3s movies on my warez drive.
[04:06] <thomas`> which happens to be NTFS
[04:06] <fluxt> thomas`, you'd need to recompile the kernel to use this unsafe option, i'd format windows drives fat32 for full compatibility
[04:06] <_jason> thomas`: you can read from ntfs so you can copy the mp3's over and/or just play them from the ntfs
[04:07] <katarot> jadaz87 it didnt work i dont were im going wrong on this
[04:07] <thomas`> yea but i gotta clean it up
[04:07] <thomas`> wish i could go delete some stuff and add new stuff i dl'd thru linux onto there
[04:07] <thomas`> from the warez drive
[04:07] <ardchoille> snowblink: you must be using the kubuntu skin
[04:08] <LinuxJones> thomas`: this isn't the best place to be asking about supporting your illegally gotten media files
[04:09] <jadaz87_> HAHA wow 75 updates lol
[04:09] <nihilist> H
[04:10] <fluxt> nihilist, you don't exist
[04:10] <nihilist> what does that mean?
[04:10] <nihilist> IDENTIFY
[04:10] <fluxt> just thought you'd like to know
[04:10] <davyd> can someone tell me the PCMCIA package in Breezy
[04:10] <davyd> is it pcmcia-cs ?
[04:11] <jadaz87_> i have a question about the kernel updates again
[04:11] <jadaz87_> i have version 2.6.12
[04:11] <jadaz87_> is there not a version 2.6.15?
[04:11] <G0SUB> davyd: yes
[04:11] <davyd> G0SUB: cheers
[04:11] <snowblink> ardchoille, ah they've fixed width it.
[04:11] <Darky> how can i uninstall game thet i installed with wine? i eresed the folder and now i can't install it
[04:11] <fluxt> jadaz87, apparently but installing it would mess up a lot of things
[04:11] <G0SUB> davyd: :)
[04:12] <jadaz87_> the update is only showing an update from 2.6.12-9 to 2.6.12-10
[04:12] <jadaz87_> fluxt oh ok thanks
[04:12] <shukhrat> how to install Opera browser
[04:12] <ardchoille> snowblink: yeah, that was a bad idea, IMHO
[04:12] <Blippe> if address: 192.168.185.1 and mask 255.255.255.248 should bcast be 192.168.185.255 or 192.168.185.7?
[04:12] <Darky> how can i uninstall game thet i installed with wine? i eresed the folder and now i can't install it plz help...
[04:12] <ardchoille> snowblink: I switched to the kubuntu skin :)
[04:12] <fluxt> Darky, from what i can tell, erasing the folder pretty much sums up wine uninstalls. other than that if  you kept the folder there may have been an uninst.exe or uninstall.exe but you should really ask that in #wine
[04:12] <shukhrat> fluxt: how to install opera browser ?
[04:13] <acidpunk> hi there
[04:13] <Darky> tnx
[04:13] <Darky> :)
[04:13] <engla> I have trouble with nautilus. It stalls or crashes everytime I right click -> properties on .mov files, and only those. How do I troubleshoot this?
[04:13] <fluxt> shukhrat, do opera offer a binary package from their website?
[04:13] <Jhair> shukhrat: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser?highlight=%28opera%29
[04:13] <snowblink> ardchoille, or just show printable version
[04:13] <nihilist> @fluxt: What did you mean with "i don't exist"
[04:14] <nihilist> sorry i don't understand
[04:14] <acidpunk> is it known that as of the latest bonobo updates for dapper, that every app that uses bonobo hangs right after start? e.g. nautilus, gnome-panel...
[04:14] <Frogzoo> 192.168.185.7?
[04:14] <ardchoille> snowblink: , aha, thanks :)
[04:14] <oskude> !dapper

[04:19] <fluxt> !anybody
[04:19] <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>
[04:20] <Healot> firestarter is a good frontend for iptables/netfilter... kode4u
[04:20] <payrok> anybody have much experience with ubuntu on a dell latitude cpx?
[04:21] <fluxt> !anybody
[04:21] <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>
[04:21] <alterr> hi, wath the name of source package for linux-686-smp?
[04:21] <n0ah> it keeps disconnecting and getting a new address but then disconnecting shortly after that again
[04:21] <payrok> ok then
[04:21] <oskude> payrok, i got it running on latitude c800 and cpm233st
[04:22] <alterr> s/wath/what
[04:22] <payrok> i have this issue that seems like a kernel issue, but not 100% sure,
[04:22] <n0ah> lol alterr
[04:22] <richard> how can i get acces to /var/www?, i'm root but i prefer to enter as a normal user
[04:22] <payrok> i can't seem to do two things at once at all
[04:22] <Frogzoo> kode4u: nat with iptables is ubiquitous - check google
[04:22] <payrok> xmms + firefox running, stuttering sound
[04:22] <payrok> mouse stutters
[04:23] <fluxt> !enter
[04:23] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[04:23] <Frogzoo> !tell payrok about ff1.5
[04:23] <alterr> n0ah, wtf ?
[04:23] <payrok> i don't have any of those issues with other os
[04:23] <n0ah> the replace.. it amused me cause i'm frustrated
[04:23] <morten> I just intalled ubuntu for the first time and i cant open the update manager. Anybody knows why? common problem?
[04:23] <payrok> frogzoo, it's not that
[04:23] <Frogzoo> payrok: you're running 1.0.7 are you not?
[04:23] <payrok> i have real problems with multitasking,
[04:24] <_jason> morten: what happens when you try?
[04:24] <thefish> payrok: open a console and type "top" when it is stuttering, find the process that is causing problems
[04:24] <oskude> richard, you could change the owner or permissions of the dir(s) (but user www-data HAS to have read and execute rights for dirs)
[04:24] <morten> nothing happens im running ubuntu 5,10
[04:24] <payrok> there are none eating any cpu
[04:24] <payrok> that i can see
[04:24] <fluxt> payrok, standard kernel? what the audio chipset? and are these problem only when firefox is runnin?
[04:24] <Frogzoo> payrok: ff1.0.7 is a hog - upgrade
[04:25] <payrok> fluxt, standard i386 kernel, maestro3 audio, synaptic touchpad, and no it happens constatly
[04:25] <_jason> morten: what happens when you try to run system > administration > synaptic?
[04:25] <kode4u> Frogzoo: I'v read `howto share inernet connection`, I just do not know why should use ipmasq. iptables could do the same work too, right?
[04:25] <payrok> s/constatly/constantly
[04:25] <oskude> richard, but you could also do a "public_html" dir in you home dir and it will be accesible through "http://localhost/~yourusername/"
[04:25] <analfabeta_> how can i installer Eclipse in my AMD64?
[04:26] <morten> Jason, nothing happens.
[04:26] <Frogzoo> kode4u: look for an iptables nat howto - ipmasq is unnecessary - iptables supports a nat table
[04:26] <thxtm> bolehhhhhhhhhh blah
[04:26] <Jhair> analfabeta_: just download it from the eclipse site and follow the instructions
[04:26] <_jason> morten: ok open a terminal (accessories > terminal), and what happens with 'sudo echo hi'
[04:26] <n0ah> restarted hotplug.. my mouse is now working
[04:26] <fluxt> payrok, what about when there's no audio, does the mouse stutter then?
[04:26] <Frogzoo> payrok: would your cpu support 686? that's a big improvement
[04:26] <payrok> fluxt, yes
[04:26] <cusco> hi! Im using dapper now.. how do I reconfigure my locales? sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales doesnt let me choose which locales to add
[04:27] <cusco> :/
[04:27] <kode4u> Frogzoo, Thank you. :)
[04:27] <Goldfisch> !tell cusco about dapper
[04:27] <fluxt> payrok, what is the laptop model?
[04:27] <Frogzoo> kode4u: yw, gl :)
[04:27] <payrok> frogzoo, it would, it's a PIII 650,
[04:27] <cusco> Goldfisch: :|
[04:27] <analfabeta_> jhair: a .deb package for my arch don't exists?
[04:27] <payrok> fluxt, latitude cpx j650gt
[04:27] <morten> jason, sudo: unable to lookup 062016216153 via gethostbyname()
[04:28] <Goldfisch> sudo apt-cache search eclipse <--- ubuntu has lots of eclipse modules for your to pick from.
[04:28] <Frogzoo> payrok: sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-10-686
[04:28] <payrok> frogzoo, but when i attempt to use a diff kernel, synaptic wants to remove a bunch of crap when i get rid of the i386 one
[04:28] <_jason> morten: ok, what are the first lines in the files /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname.  Just use 'cat /etc/hosts', same for hostname and paste it here
[04:28] <Jhair> analfabeta_: why do you need a .deb file? you can install the tar.gz provied by eclipse ...
[04:28] <Jhair> /s/provied/provided
[04:28] <jadaz87_> HOLY CRAP I AM ON WIRELESS
[04:28] <Frogzoo> payrok: leave the 386 in place - it's not hurting anyone
[04:28] <jadaz87_> HUZZAAH!!!!!!!
[04:29] <jadaz87_> the funny thing is i can only get on irc
[04:29] <babo> Does anyone know what rc stands for ? ... as in /etc/rc ?
[04:29] <jadaz87_> firefox is not working :(
[04:29] <seanh> quit
[04:29] <jadaz87_> can anyone help me?
[04:29] <Goldfisch> babo: rc = run control
[04:29] <fluxt> babo, runtime configuration
[04:30] <payrok> frogzoo, is there a nice howto for rebuilding my own kernel package?  or is it cool for me to just build my own kernel and install it without package managment
[04:30] <payrok> ?
[04:30] <babo> thanks ...
[04:30] <babo> well that clears that up then doesn't it ... :-)
[04:30] <_jason> !kernelhowto
[04:30] <ubotu> somebody said kernelhowto was http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/KernelHowto
[04:30] <fluxt> payrok, i did that, but there is a package for the source
[04:30] <jadaz87_> i think the network configuartion for wireless is messed up :(
[04:31] <babo> Does linux store all it's inodes in a superblock at the start of a filesystem or are they stored in blocks throughout the filesystem ?
[04:31] <athlon> Hello guys, I am unable to upgrade my breezy to dapper because everytime I do apt-get upgrade, it says "139 packages have been held back". The option "-o Ignore-Hold=yes -o Force-LoopBreak=yes" didnt help
[04:31] <morten> jason, no such file
[04:31] <payrok> jadaz87, it's pretty straight forward actually
[04:31] <jadaz87_> payrok no i know that
[04:31] <Goldfisch> athlon: Are you doing a dist-upgrade?
[04:31] <_jason> morten: paste exactly what you typed here
[04:31] <athlon> Goldfisch: yes
[04:31] <jadaz87_> payrok but i was not able to connect to wireless
[04:31] <Frogzoo> payrok: the kernel source probly comes with a readme in /usr/share/doc - haven't bothered with my own kernel builds to be honest
[04:31] <morten> cat/etc/hosts
[04:31] <jadaz87_> payrok only when i use iwconfig directly does it work
[04:31] <athlon> Goldfisch: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -o Ignore-Hold=yes -o Force-LoopBreak=yes
[04:31] <_jason> morten: space after 'cat'
[04:31] <oskude> babo, i think that depends on your filesystem, howabout asking google or wikipedia ...
[04:32] <athlon> Goldfisch: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 139 not upgraded.
[04:32] <payrok> fluxt, ah, that sucks, i had problems with my dlink card i think it was a 600+
[04:32] <payrok> fluxt, sorry, wrong person
[04:32] <babo> oskude: as opposed to #ubuntu ?
[04:32] <Goldfisch> athlon: Before all that, did you apt-get update, with your /etc/apt/sources.list pointed at dapper, not breezy?
[04:32] <payrok> jadaz87, ah, that sucks, i had problems with my dlink card i think it was a 600+

[04:33] <jadaz87_> payron yeah i have a broadcom 4306 :-\
[04:33] <michael117> I have added some ntfs partitions to my fstab but they are read-only and I am given an error that it is because of the filesystem. How could I change this to be writtable?
[04:33] <morten> thanks
[04:33] <athlon> Goldfisch:  yep
[04:33] <_jason> morten: paste the whole thing to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and give me a link
[04:33] <oskude> babo, your questions are things that are not so ubuntu specific, and are better described in a web page anyway...
[04:33] <guillem101> michael117, don't do that.
[04:33] <payrok> jadaz, i have a similar problem, using broadcom drivers for the chipset in my linksys, seems i can't use the wizard and have to do everything cli
[04:33] <jadaz87_> payrok i am going to try wifiradar and see if that works
[04:33] <Goldfisch> athlon: You can try to apt-get install one of the packages that are held back, and see if it gives you a reason.
[04:34] <payrok> jadaz, cool
[04:34] <michael117> guillen101: Is ntfs support really that bad?
[04:34] <guillem101> michael117, writting into ntfs is unstable AFAIK
[04:34] <EvilDin> am anyone any idea why dns resolving doesn't work on my ubuntu?
[04:34] <Frogzoo> jadaz87_: consider gtkwifi
[04:34] <jadaz87_> payrok the broadcom issue is really annoyign that is why i cannot wait into dapper drake comes out built in broadcom support
[04:34] <guillem101> michael117, not sure if it is that bad... but I guess so
[04:34] <jadaz87_> gtkwifi?
[04:34] <jadaz87_> is that in the add applications list?
[04:35] <Frogzoo> !gtkwifi
[04:35] <morten> jason, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d10293
[04:35] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Frogzoo
[04:35] <athlon> Goldfisch: apparently they are depended on other packages who for some reasons also wont be installed / upgraded
[04:35] <payrok> jadaz, i just dist-upgraded to dapper drake at work, omg, the new xgl xserver is awesome
[04:35] <Frogzoo> booo....
[04:35] <jadaz87_> payrok :-)
[04:35] <guillem101> michael117, I *think* there is the posibility of using the windows driver through wine and have stable writting access... but I'm talking of what sometime i heard, you know.
[04:35] <athlon> Goldfisch: libevolution-cil: Depends: evolution (>= 2.6.0) but 2.4.1-0ubuntu7 is to be installed
[04:35] <fluxt> !tell payrok about kernel
[04:35] <jadaz87_> frogzoo the bot will not tell me anything about it lol
[04:36] <payrok> jadaz, everyone was oohing and ahhing
[04:36] <jadaz87_> payrok haha i am going to have to get it
[04:36] <_jason> morten: ok strange, how about /etc/hostname?
[04:36] <athlon> Goldfisch: sudo apt-get install evolution --> evolution is already the newest version.
[04:36] <allievo_> Greetings, as many others I am having quite a problem with my wireless network. Everything works fine, although I cannot use encryption, because it seems as if it will not accept my key
[04:36] <payrok> jadaz, it's worth it
[04:36] <morten> no file
[04:37] <Frogzoo> jadaz87_: http://gtkwifi.sourceforge.net/
[04:37] <payrok> jadaz, setting up the xserver was painless, I found a howto on digg
[04:37] <IceTox> morten?
[04:37] <allievo_> I read that it would work if I input the key in hexadecimal, but that's not really an option for me. I would rather search for a solution
[04:37] <morten> yes?
[04:37] <IceTox> morten, .no?
[04:37] <jadaz87_> payrok nice :-)
[04:37] <michael117> I keep getting the error "The file is not an audio stream" when trying to import any mp3s into rhythmbox
[04:37] <_jason> morten: you did 'cat /etc/hostname' ?
[04:38] <Goldfisch> athlon: I just looked that up in packages.ubuntu.com. Are you sure ALL the repositories in your /etc/apt/sources.list have been updated (including the universe) to dapper?
[04:38] <morten> sorry :S
[04:38] <morten> here it is :) 062016216153
[04:38] <_jason> michael117: have you installed gstreamer mp3 codecs?
[04:38] <athlon> Goldfisch: yes. Just checked it three times.
[04:38] <athlon> Goldfisch: anyway, the upgrading works for a bit
[04:38] <payrok> jadaz, i think they have that proprietary ntfs read write support in there too
[04:39] <_jason> is there any problem with hostname being all numbers?
[04:39] <athlon> Goldfisch: then it stopped because there's an error with enlightenment. So I removed enlightenment with synaptic
[04:39] <athlon> Goldfisch: and attempted to continue the upgrade
[04:39] <Frogzoo> _jason: nope - not unless you need reverse DNS for some perverse reason
[04:39] <athlon> Goldfisch: unfortunately, now all packages have been held back
[04:39] <_jason> morten: ok, you want your hostname to be 062016216153?
[04:39] <_jason> Frogzoo: thanks
[04:40] <fluxt> what is the console pipe to sort output by alpha?
[04:40] <morten> sure why not? Im not even sure what it is
[04:40] <_jason> fluxt: | sort
[04:40] <Goldfisch> athlon: I am reading the packages, and it says it should load evolution 2.6.0 to support libevolution-cil 0.10.2, so I don't know where your system is getting this 2.4 stuff.
[04:40] <fluxt> _jason, wow :)
[04:41] <athlon> Goldfisch: I know, thats what confuses me
[04:41] <EvilDin> am any idea why my dns server delte when i reboot pc and resolving is doesn't working
[04:41] <athlon> Goldfisch: gonna delete sources.list*
[04:41] <subwr> !status l2p
[04:41] <ubotu> subwr: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:41] <athlon> Goldfisch: and create a new one
[04:41] <allievo_> Does anyone know anything about my WLAN key (dec/hex) problem? I've been searching online for help regarding this, but cannot seem to find anything, so if you can, please don't refrain from redirecting me
[04:41] <subwr> oo wrong
[04:41] <Goldfisch> athlon: sudo apt-get clean ; sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade <--- my suggestion
[04:41] <Frogzoo> _jason: o ic - hostname - don't think that presents any problem at all
[04:42] <_jason> morten: ok, did you do a standard install?
[04:42] <Goldfisch> athlon: Are there any breezy references? In other words, do you have both breezy and dapper in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[04:42] <morten> yes
[04:42] <jadaz87_> payrok hold on let me see if wireless works
[04:43] <_jason> morten: ok you are going to have to reboot and choose 'recovery mode' in the grub menu.  Then 'nano /etc/hosts' and add the line '127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 062016216153' to the beginning of the file.  Press ctrl-o to save and ctrl-x to exit.  Then reboot
[04:43] <jadaz87_> payrok i think i have gotten it to work hold on
[04:43] <jadaz87_> payrok it supports ntfs???
[04:44] <payrok> jadaz, yeah, thru a third party kernel patch
[04:44] <michael117> _jason: yes, I do have the gstreamer mp3 codecs installed. I am able, though, to play files with xmms
[04:44] <payrok> uses the actual windoze dlls
[04:44] <_jason> michael117: do the files play in totem?
[04:44] <fluxt> i have Goldfisch's /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat in my /etc/apt/source.lst
[04:44] <jadaz87_> payrok nice i cannot wait to get it
[04:44] <athlon> Goldfisch: nope, not a single breezy word, at least according to grep and vi
[04:44] <Goldfisch> fluxt: What???!?!?!?!
[04:44] <morten> Thanks jason
[04:45] <Husio> Hi all
[04:45] <jadaz87_> payrok have you used aMSN before?
[04:45] <PuMpErNiCkLe> hi you
[04:45] <jadaz87_> hello husio
[04:45] <Husio> I need help with Django installation
[04:45] <lafferpt> I can't seem to print a .pdf in given range ie: 70-330. what should I do? what can be wrong?
[04:45] <Husio> error: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.4/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)
[04:46] <michael117> _jason: yes, but many times I get errors when trying to use totem for videos, but it is working for audio files because I have one testing right now
[04:46] <jadaz87_> payrok do you know of any other msn clients for linux?
[04:46] <payrok> jadaz, just gaim
[04:46] <marlun> Will "find -name <something>" find directories with that name also?
[04:46] <morten> hey jason would you tell me that again?
[04:46] <lafferpt> jadaz87, amsn
[04:46] <Grim76_Work> jadaz87_: amsn, gaim, and kopete
[04:46] <payrok> jadaz, maybe the one for kde
[04:46] <Goldfisch> marlun: Yes.
[04:46] <payrok> yeah kopete
[04:46] <Husio> anyone have ever install Django ?
[04:46] <morten> im getting too old for this
[04:47] <jadaz87_> oh ok hold on i am going to restart the computer again
[04:47] <_jason> michael117: don't know why they wouldn't work in rhythmbox then.  You can try running 'gst-register-0.8' in a terminal and restarting the app, but I don't think that will help
[04:47] <michael117> _jason: it doesn't seem to play the entire file though
[04:47] <_jason> morten: ok you are going to have to reboot and choose 'recovery mode' in the grub menu.  Then 'nano /etc/hosts' and add the line '127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 062016216153' to the beginning of the file.  Press ctrl-o to save and ctrl-x to exit.  Then reboot
[04:47] <AndiM> marlun: use something like find . -name "foo" -type f if you don't want that.
[04:47] <_jason> michael117: have you verified it with more than one file?
[04:47] <fluxt> Husio, it could be a problem with Django install procedure
[04:47] <abe> sorry, can i ask something? amsn or kopete can be use to talk with a mic?
[04:48] <Husio> fluxt : I know, I allready have 1 :-)
[04:48] <Husio> fluxt : so, how to install it?
[04:48] <athlon> Goldfisch: huzzah. After getting a new list, apt-get now says : 1417 upgraded, 166 newly installed, 79 to remove and 3 not upgraded
[04:48] <fluxt> Husio, not on ubuntu i bet
[04:48] <payrok> does anyone know why yahoo stopped working on their native linux client?
[04:48] <Husio> ...F**
[04:48] <Goldfisch> Yeah. :)
[04:49] <marlun> Text that has gone out of the terminal windows, can I view it somehow or is it gone forever? =)
[04:49] <Husio> with cherrypy was the same problem
[04:49] <michael117> _jason: actually, it seems like it plays files entirely, but doesn't have the correct length of the file listed at the bottom left
[04:49] <iGotNoTime> Anyone know of any nice Flash authoring software for linux? All I can find is with a win platform.
[04:49] <fluxt> Husio, my guess, if your desperate, remove the python package, carefull, and compile and install python 2.4 from source. if fail to do that make sure you reinstall python from apt-get/synaptic
[04:49] <Frogzoo> marlun: yes, but if you want plain files only, try find . -name NAME -type f
[04:50] <krang> Howdy doodee. Anyone know roughly how much space I need for an ubuntu install?
[04:50] <_jason> michael117: do all players do that?
[04:50] <Husio> flux : too much work :/ I'll probably change distro
[04:50] <_jason> krang: ~1.8 at a minimum
[04:50] <_jason> krang: 1.8gb
[04:50] <krang> what's the max with all the options installed?
[04:50] <Frogzoo> krang: for general desktop use 15gig will suffice
[04:50] <michael117> _jason: actually, xmms runs everything perfectly
[04:50] <payrok> for flash in linux : http://www.dmxzone.com/go?5796
[04:51] <fluxt> i remember a time when i had to compile everything i got...
[04:51] <allievo_> Is it that no one is answering me, or is there something wrong with my highlighting?
[04:51] <krang> yeek. How much if I just want to write OpenGL programs and have a GUI?
[04:51] <michael117> _jason: actually, xmms runs everything perfect
[04:51] <xplode_me> hi there! :)
[04:51] <michael117> oops
[04:51] <PuMpErNiCkLe> ali3nx: It could just be no one knows the answer.
[04:51] <marlun> Frogzoo: This was a new question =) Now I wanted to know if the text that scrolls out of the terminal is available somewhere? =)
[04:51] <PuMpErNiCkLe> !patience
[04:51] <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.
[04:51] <_jason> michael117: don't know what would cause that then, sorry
[04:51] <payrok> this is a look at flash tools for linux
[04:51] <Goldfisch> krang: So far, my experimental install if 5.7 GB.
[04:51] <payrok> http://www.linux-magazine.com/issue/59
[04:51] <thefish> without gnome you can get it under 500M
[04:51] <ali3nx> hrm?
[04:51] <krang> Wow, that'd be nice
[04:52] <payrok> igotnotime, you catch those links?
[04:52] <krang> I'll need gnome though
[04:52] <Frogzoo> marlun: no - but you can redirect stdout with >
[04:52] <iGotNoTime> payrok, ahhh yes thank you :)
[04:52] <Frogzoo> marlun: find . -name NAME -type f > matches
[04:52] <lafferpt> I can't seem to print a .pdf in given range ie: 70-330. what should I do? what can be wrong?
[04:52] <payrok> igotnotime, noproblem
[04:52] <xplode_me> can someone pls with gnome themes? I have a mix of clearlooks and the default theme i guess.. Was tryin to set up clearlooks-cairo and did some bad things lol... now this is all messed up
[04:53] <helpdeskjm> Hello I would like to receive some help about wine settings
[04:53] <Frogzoo> !tell xplode_me about gnome-art
[04:53] <PuMpErNiCkLe> xplode_me: Messed up in what way?
[04:53] <xplode_me> well
[04:53] <fluxt> helpdeskjm, join #wine
[04:53] <xplode_me> i have a mix of both :|
[04:53] <Frogzoo> !tell xplode_me about themes
[04:53] <xplode_me> most controls look clearlooks i guess
[04:53] <marlun> Frogzoo:  :) thanks
[04:54] <xplode_me> but ok buttons etc look default ones
[04:54] <xplode_me> pretty messed up
[04:54] <xplode_me> plus i get this error when starting gnome-theme-manager
[04:54] <Frogzoo> marlun: yw :)
[04:54] <xplode_me> (gnome-theme-manager:9158): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_icon_info_free: assertion `icon_info != NULL' failed
[04:54] <Goldfisch> krang: Mine has GNOME. Okay, my system minus the /home drive (pictures etc.) is 2.2GB.
[04:54] <kbrooks> um.
[04:54] <pdlnhrd> can anyone explain how to use cups-pdf so it shows up as an available driver?  i have installed the package already.
[04:54] <allievo_> What is the default WEP encryption in Ubuntu? 64-bit or 128-bit?
[04:55] <kbrooks> i need to find out where the bottlenecks of my drive space are.
[04:55] <Goldfisch> WEP is a weak algorithm. I use OpenVPN to secure my wireless network instead.
[04:55] <payrok> pdlnhrd, probably just set up a new printer, the driver for pdf should be listed as a choice
[04:55] <kbrooks> i need to find out where the bottlenecks of my drive space are. how can i do this????????????????????????
[04:56] <gener21839> I need a bit of help installing the newest firefox (new to linux)
[04:56] <fluxt> !tell helpdeskjm about wine
[04:56] <kbrooks> no cli please, way too lazy.
[04:56] <allievo_> Goldfisch: ok, but that wasn't really what I was asking for :) Do you know what the default is? Because it only says "WEP key" in the network manager
[04:56] <pdlnhrd> payrok:  yes.. i sort of see that.. but it makes me choose a manufactur and driver as well.  when i go to add printer it is there.. but doesn't give me a way to give it a name
[04:56] <fluxt> cli is lazy
[04:56] <Goldfisch> kbrooks: What do you mean by bottleneck in drive space? You need a subtotal of disk usage by folder?
[04:56] <xplode_me> ok no one knows.... this is really weird...
[04:56] <xplode_me> i guess my engines are messed up
[04:56] <fluxt> much easier to type a command than say,  click this then that then pull this and slide that while pressing this
[04:56] <joachim-n> how do I clear Firefox's memory of the URL bar?
[04:56] <payrok> pdlnhrd, sorry, i would help more but i am using knoppix at the moment
[04:56] <Frogzoo> kbrooks: cat /proc/diskstats  best I can do
[04:57] <xplode_me> tried reinstalling them, gnome-themes, etc and nothin
[04:57] <pdlnhrd> payrok:  that is cool.. thanks though
[04:57] <PuMpErNiCkLe> xplode_me: Um, are you running breezy or dapper? o_O
[04:57] <oskude> kbrooks, i like filelight (universe) even thou its kde.. (if you was meaning such tool)
[04:58] <payrok> peace
[04:58] <phreak97> so.. uh, does someone wanna tell me why i cant turn mp3's into an audio cd with serpentine or k3b?
[04:58] <fluxt> joachim-n, edit, prefs, privacy
[04:58] <allievo_> Can anyone tell me what the default WEP encryption is in Ubuntu? The network manager says "WEP key", so I do not know what kind of WEP it is
[04:58] <gener21839> I need a bit of help installing the newest firefox (new to linux)
[04:58] <xplode_me> PuMpErNiCkLe, dapper
[04:58] <GnarusLeo> allievo_, it depends on if you have an encryption key to your wireless network
[04:58] <GnarusLeo> allievo_, and wich WEP you set there
[04:59] <xplode_me> oh
[04:59] <joachim-n> fluxt, yes, but I don't see an option for it in there
[04:59] <PuMpErNiCkLe> xplode_me: It's probably a bug, then - likely it'll get fixed soon, but I suggest filing a report anyway.
[04:59] <fluxt> !ff1.5
[04:59] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[04:59] <xplode_me> and i just found something now
[04:59] <GnarusLeo> allievo_,  HEX, ASCII or 128b
[04:59] <xplode_me> guess what, rhythmbox is failing
[04:59] <allievo_> GnarusLeo: Ah, I was told that it was a difference in what kind of key you supplied. Thank you very much for your response!
[04:59] <fluxt> joachim-n, i use firefox 1.5..
[04:59] <joachim-n> ah
[04:59] <GnarusLeo> allievo_, np :)

[05:04] <GnarusLeo> !ask
[05:04] <erg0t_> i configure my eth0 the same as it is configured in windows
[05:04] <erg0t_> and it wont run
[05:04] <erg0t_> in win it runs like a charm
[05:04] <erg0t_> in ubuntu i have no connection
[05:04] <erg0t_> what can be causing this?
[05:04] <jadaz87_> I FIGURED OUT THE PROBLEM WITH THE BROADCOM CARDS!!! HUZZAH!!
[05:04] <erg0t_> same config for both os
[05:04] <PuMpErNiCkLe> erg0t_: Any error messages?  And any idea why it isn't auto-configured?
[05:04] <ron_> jadaz87 just needs to figure out the cap button now
[05:05] <erg0t_> PuMpErNiCkLe, i use the graphical configurator, but i even run a ifconfig eth0 and there it is, everything is set
[05:05] <oskude> erg0t_, output of "ifconfig" looks right ?
[05:05] <djuggler> Anyone up for giving some yaboot advice? Do I need to have a partition on the harddrive if I'm trying to live boot?

[05:06] <jadaz87_> thank you fluxt :)
[05:07] <fluxt> erg0t_, are you sure you're not supposed to be using dhcp?
[05:07] <sailor> I've got a quick question.... How do I find out what device my dvd-r drive is (i.e., /dev/dvdrw, /dev/cdrom1, etc)?
[05:07] <Noahj> drcurl: put it in your xsession mybe?
[05:07] <erg0t_> no im not, it is an static ip address
[05:08] <guillem101> sailor, quick answer: lookup /etc/fstab
[05:08] <fluxt> sailor, mount it then cat /etc/mtab
[05:08] <joachim-n> how do I get Subversion?
[05:08] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sailor: ls /dev | grep dvd show anything?
[05:08] <oskude> sailor, or looking in /proc, mine is in "cat /proc/ide/ide0/hdb/model"
[05:09] <joachim-n> nm, got it
[05:09] <oskude> joachim-n, :)
[05:09] <joachim-n> I was looking for "svn"
[05:09] <sailor> ls /dev | grep dvd shows dvd, dvd1, dvdrw
[05:09] <oskude> joachim-n, jup, me too first :)
[05:10] <sailor> fstab is showing cdrom0 and cdrom1
[05:10] <Frogzoo> joachim-n: sudo apt-get install subversion
[05:10] <fluxt> erg0t_, tried pinging computers on the network?
[05:10] <guillem101> sailor, check /dev/cdrom0 and cdrom1: they will be links to the actual device.
[05:11] <sailor> ok, excellent
[05:11] <sailor> thanks for the help guys!
[05:12] <gopi> Hi, Why isnt this site not working? http://www.quietglow.com/docs/ubuntumythtv.htm
[05:12] <gopi> thegladiator: hello
[05:12] <thegladiator> gopi, hey i am playing
[05:13] <thegladiator> gerardusje : 1550 rating , blitz
[05:13] <oskude> gopi, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_404
[05:14] <Seveas> jl
[05:14] <phreak97> fuck
[05:14] <Frogzoo> no
[05:14] <Seveas> hmm?
[05:14] <phreak97> what's with no mp3 support for any freaking cd burning apps?
[05:14] <gener21839> ok... I tried installing the newest firefox... but now I can't open it at ll
[05:14] <phreak97> somoene gimme an app which does it
[05:14] <oskude> gopi, or try this :) http://www.quietglow.com/docs/ubuntumythtv.html
[05:15] <phreak97> i GUI based app
[05:15] <slavik> anyone know of any gui tool to generate wpasupplicant config?
[05:16] <gopi> oskude: ok thanks
[05:16] <elliot_> Can someone please tell me if it is possible to remote admin Ubuntu using telnet
[05:16] <Noahj> gener21839: Did you use apt?
[05:16] <Enthusiast78> The truth about 'dist-upgrade': Is it dangerous or not? Is just 'upgrade' safer? I'm concerned about breaking working systems when upgrading with apt-get or aptitude...
[05:16] <LinuxJones> elliot_: don't use telnet use ssh
[05:16] <slavik> elliot_: it is possible, but not recommended ...
[05:16] <elliot_> I really need to
[05:16] <michel41> join #ubuntu-fr
[05:16] <slavik> Enthusiast78: dist-upgrade is not as safe as upgrade ...
[05:16] <phreak97> fuck it
[05:16] <elliot_> can't use SSH over my school network
[05:16] <slavik> dist-upgrade disregards dependancies I believe
[05:17] <slavik> elliot_: then you shouldn't
[05:17] <LinuxJones> phreak97: please stop cursing
[05:17] <Enthusiast78> slavik, So can we agree that 'upgrade' is the safe version of 'dist-upgrade'?
[05:17] <slavik> Enthusiast78: no
[05:17] <oskude> Enthusiast78, dist-upgrade is ment for upgrading from like breezy to dapper
[05:17] <slavik> upgrade only upgrades the packages already installed and will not pull them from a different repository
[05:17] <_Lamont_> Morning folks
[05:17] <slavik> yes
[05:17] <elliot_> I'm perfectly allowed to remote desktop, I did it with my Windows, I just need to acess my home console from school, without using SSH
[05:18] <slavik> what oskude said
[05:18] <LinuxJones> _Lamont_: welcome
[05:18] <Enthusiast78> oskude, Or when kernel versions (for example) are concerned?
[05:18] <elliot_> I honestly don't care if it is unsecure
[05:18] <slavik> Enthusiast78: upgrade will do that
[05:18] <slavik> elliot_: then go ahead
[05:18] <slavik> elliot_: why do you use linux?
[05:18] <oskude> Enthusiast78, hmm, i never do/did dist-upgrade (except to get sid on debian)
[05:18] <elliot_> I switched to linux because I hated windows
[05:19] <elliot_> now I need to tranfer files to school so I can print them
[05:19] <slavik> and not because of any security features that linux might offer?
[05:19] <elliot_> or at least view them
[05:19] <elliot_> no
[05:19] <slavik> elliot_: does your school allow you to use usb flash drives?
[05:19] <elliot_> theoretically yes, in actuallity, no
[05:19] <Enthusiast78> elliot_, scp is a great way to transfer files over the Internet.
[05:19] <elliot_> SCP?
[05:19] <slavik> elliot_: do you understand the difference between telnet and ssh?
[05:20] <elliot_> I no that SSH uses a different port and is encrypted
[05:20] <_Lamont_> elliot_ (sorry, latecomer to this conversation) why do you specifically want to avoid SSH, which seems perfect for what you want? Firewall blocking port?
[05:20] <slavik> anyone know of a toold to generate wpa_supplicant network config?
[05:20] <elliot_> precisely, RM = ten ton of filters
[05:20] <Enthusiast78> oskude, So you'd recommend 'upgrade' instead of 'dist-upgrade', right? What's the essential difference between them? Sorry for so many questions... If you'd rather suggest some documentation...
[05:20] <jadaz87_> haha telnet + windows = a bad idea haha lol
[05:20] <elliot_> add technicians who only understand how to type a letter
[05:21] <elliot_> then u got trouple
[05:21] <slavik> Enthusiast78: dist-upgrade disregards dependancies ... which can break the system
[05:21] <jadaz87_> hey payrok i got the wireless working for the Broadcom :)
[05:21] <slavik> elliot_: use ssh on port 80?
[05:21] <Enthusiast78> elliot_, 'man scp'
[05:21] <slavik> assuming you don't have a web server
[05:21] <elliot_> thanks enthusiast, how do you do that slavik?
[05:21] <_Lamont_> elliot_, I think to say that the consensus here will be that telnet over windows is a bad idea, and that remote access (including remote copying of files) is best done through SSH
[05:21] <oskude> Enthusiast78, sorry, im "just" a user, so i allways use just upgrade. but you could read some debian documentation (as ubuntu is mostly debian)
 ... would be an understatement
[05:22] <Enthusiast78> slavik, Hmmm... Think I got it now... So can we say that 'dist-upgrade' is intended for release upgrades only?
[05:22] <slavik> elliot_: configure the ssh daemon to listen on port 80 on your ubuntu box and then connect to it ...
[05:22] <Enthusiast78> slavik, Like upgrading from warty to hoary and then to breezy, for example?
[05:22] <slavik> Enthusiast78: dist-upgrade will take you from breezy to dapper, upgrade won't
[05:22] <elliot_> any sites with instructions, I relitively new
[05:23] <Enthusiast78> slavik, Hmmm... Ok. That's the info I needed! Many thanks, people!
[05:23] <oskude> Enthusiast78, i could think you could need dist-upgrade for "backports" too...
[05:23] <slavik> Enthusiast78: when apt gets klist of stuff from the repo, it also checks the repo intented platform versus what you are using ... upgrade will not allow you to install stuff from dapper repo onto breezy, but dist-upgrade will.
[05:23] <oskude> Enthusiast78, man apt-get has little info about dist-upgrade
[05:23] <_Lamont_> elliot_, unfortunately, I've not set up my SSH server on Ubuntu yet - but I will be doing so over the next few weeks (new here too). I've had SSH on my SuSE box for years
[05:23] <LinuxJones> elliot_: you can use something like tightvnc which at least encrypts the passwords and it has a webbrowser interface you can use from any webbrowser
[05:24] <Enthusiast78> oskude, slavik : Thanks a lot!
[05:24] <slavik> np
[05:24] <elliot_> really? I'll look that up
[05:24] <elliot_> thanks all who are helping btw
[05:24] <slavik> now then, wpa supplicant config making gui tool ... anyone?
[05:24] <slavik> !v2000z
[05:24] <ubotu> methinks v2000z is The followng wiki page has some information on fixing problems you might encounter with installing Breezy Badger on the Compaq Presario V2000Z. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/CompaqPresarioV2000Z
[05:24] <_Lamont_> elliot_ np - most of us get help here too - can't be experts at everything :)
[05:24] <oskude> Enthusiast78, if you REALLY want to know all the "hard-core" infos about those, try the debian channel...
[05:25] <slavik> still there ...
[05:25] <slavik> methinks debian people are elitist somewhat
[05:25] <thegladiator> gopi whats the problem /
[05:26] <zoexii> hello,  Can anyone tell me where I can find additional keyboard layouts?  I would like one that will allow me to type IPA (international phonetic alphabet)
[05:26] <XpCrash> hey a dmg file is the apple format of an iso right?
[05:26] <elliot_> lol, I tried debian once, I even manually installed Xwindows then I discovered apt and gave up
[05:26] <LinuxJones> XpCrash: yeah or an installer file I believe
[05:27] <XpCrash> can i mount it in ubuntu
[05:27] <Frogzoo> !iso
[05:27] <ubotu> I heard iso is download Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ and for help burning the CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[05:27] <LinuxJones> XpCrash: I am not sure, but probably :)
[05:27] <slavik> now then, wpa supplicant config making gui tool ... anyone?
[05:27] <oskude> heres info about dist-upgrade (oh, hes gone) http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/69
[05:27] <elliot_> Another question, Would I need a seperate client to SSH from windows?
[05:27] <_Lamont_> Speaking of getting help, <grin> I am upgrading from an old SuSE server that has PHP and MySQL working in Apache. I see I need to do some extra work with the newer PHP5. Anyone know if I have to manually recompile mySQL with the '--with-mysql' option, or if there's a package install/upgrade somewhere I can use?
[05:28] <XpCrash> mount -t iso9660 -o loop image.iso /mnt/isoimage ,is that how i would mount an image
[05:28] <oskude> elliot_, putty is a good windoze ssh client (has scp too)
[05:28] <_Lamont_> elliot_: you'd need an SSH client on any box you tried, and yes, one doesn't typically come with windows. There are many very small footprint clients that can be quickly downloaded. I use PuTTY
[05:28] <XpCrash> and how would i unmount the image
[05:28] <_jason> _Lamont_: php5 is in the repos
[05:28] <jadaz87_> does anyone know if you install ubuntu server edition if it comes with a gui (like gnome)?
[05:28] <Frogzoo> XpCrash: prepend 'sudo' & you're in business
[05:29] <nosilver4u> anyone know a good id3 tag editor for linux?
[05:29] <XpCrash> ok an unmount for unmounting?
[05:29] <Frogzoo> XpCrash: sudo umount /mnt/isoimage
[05:29] <_jason> nosilver4u: easytag
[05:29] <elliot_> hmm, lucky I got a teachers pass! RM hates downloaded files
[05:29] <oskude> jadaz87, no
[05:29] <nosilver4u> thanks
[05:29] <elliot_> anyway g2g, thanks for the help
[05:29] <XpCrash> ok cool
[05:29] <XpCrash> thanks
[05:29] <_Lamont_> _jason, I have PHP5 working in Apache, but the old php4 scripts that connect to mysql don't work
[05:29] <oskude> jadaz87, but you can install anything manually...
[05:29] <jadaz87_> oskude oh ok
[05:30] <_jason> _Lamont_: ah I see, don't know about that
[05:30] <jadaz87_> oskude i am so happy i got the wireless working i now only have linux on all my computers
[05:30] <jadaz87_> oskude :)
[05:30] <oskude> jadaz87, the standard installation is allmost like server install and apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:31] <jadaz87_> oskude oh ok nice :-)
[05:31] <_Lamont_> Anyone here know if you can get PHP5 to connect to MySQL without recompiling the Ubuntu installed version?
[05:31] <oskude> jadaz87, i used only prism2 chip wireless cards so i had no problems ...
[05:31] <_jason> ubotu: tell _Lamont_ about lamp
[05:32] <jadaz87_> oskude yeah i have broadcom i found out you cannot use the network configuration with the broacom/ndiswrapper
[05:32] <_jason> _Lamont_: that wiki page works fine for me, I'm not sure your problem is a php4 vs php5 one so you may want to take a look at the 3 packages for mysql that are recommended there
[05:32] <jadaz87_> oskude: you have to use something else like wifi radar that worked for me
[05:32] <oskude> jadaz87, i would never buy a wireless card that need ndiswrapper...
[05:32] <kp__> Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this Pmount problem i can't mount zip disks or my Dvd drive at all.
[05:33] <_jason> _Lamont_: and realize that you cna just substitute php4 with php5 everywhere on that page
[05:33] <jadaz87_> oskude it is not actual a card the wireless is built into my laptop
[05:33] <oskude> jadaz87, ok, doh :)
[05:33] <FrdPrefct> jadaz87: You will prob need to use niswrapper
[05:33] <FrdPrefct> ndis... whatever it's called
[05:33] <jadaz87_> oskude i am going to be so happy when dapper drake comes out built in dapper drake
[05:33] <oskude> Fracture, jadaz87 has it all working...
[05:33] <babo> I need a command to write the lines 100 - 100 from a file into another file ... ?
[05:33] <kp__> !pmount
[05:34] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, kp__
[05:34] <kp__> !mount
[05:34] <ubotu> rumour has it, mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[05:34] <_jason> babo: does 100 - 100 mean just line 100?
[05:34] <FrdPrefct> question... Ubuntu rocks, but kde (via kubuntu) isn't as tightly integrated as gnome... is that true, or am i missing something?
[05:34] <babo> _jason: sorry typo ... 100-110
[05:35] <oskude> kp__, are your devices in IDE bus ?
[05:35] <griffin_> hello, got an interesting prob.  Ubuntu has been failing to load lately its say: FATAL: module minix not found, Mount: mounting /dev/hdb1 or /root failed, any ideas how ot fix?
[05:35] <FrdPrefct> griffin_: sounds like a corrupt filesystem, or a drive dying... etc
[05:35] <_jason> babo: sed -n '100,110p' file > newfile, should do it I believe
[05:35] <griffin_> maybe a problem with grub? I am running a dual boot
[05:36] <griffin_> I can mount the drive from a live CD and all is still accessable.
[05:36] <FrdPrefct> griffin_: possibly, if you are pointing to the wrong place, you'd get that
[05:36] <FrdPrefct> try a live cd
[05:36] <oskude> griffin_, what version of ubuntu ? and what did you do as last before that occured ?
[05:36] <babo> _jason: thanks
[05:37] <Frogzoo> griffin_: from grub prompt, try 'find' & see if you can find the kernel
[05:37] <_Lamont_> _jason I didn't get a tell about lamp - do you have the wiki page link?
[05:37] <_jason>  _Lamont_ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[05:38] <_Lamont_> _jason Thanks!
[05:38] <chuckyp> wazzzzzzzzzup
[05:38] <XpCrash> hey does magic iso work good through wine
[05:38] <griffin_> I am running the most recent Ubuntu...(cant remember numbers of the top of my head), the last thing I did was install cinerella.  I thought maybe I was pointing to wrong drive, but I am pointing to hdb1, and that is where linux is installed to boot.  It has to be, cause when I run fdisk -l it even say so.
[05:38] <chuckyp> XpCrash, why do you want magic iso?
[05:39] <XpCrash> cause its nice
[05:39] <chuckyp> XpCrash, they have an appdb on their site
[05:39] <griffin_> I tried re-insallling the grub as well.
[05:39] <kp__> oskude: yes
[05:39] <Frogzoo> XpCrash: check the wine app db
[05:39] <chuckyp> XpCrash, application database  you can look it up there.
[05:40] <griffin_> do you think find from the grub menu is my best option?
[05:40] <Frogzoo> XpCrash: but probably just try installing it...
[05:40] <HeMan> Hi! Can I use root=LABEL=/ as option to an ubuntu kernel or is that a red hat extension?
[05:40] <kp__> oskude: Ive read alot about Floppy mount trouble with breezy but not dvd and floppy, i can mount partitions brilliantly
[05:40] <chuckyp> griffin_, what is cinerella?
[05:40] <Noahj> Video editor
[05:40] <Frogzoo> griffin_: it's a quick way to see if grub is broken - which it probably is & you'll need to reinstall grub
[05:40] <griffin_> chuckyp, its a video edtiing software
[05:40] <chuckyp> griffin_, so whats your problem now?
[05:41] <HeMan> or how should I solve a SCSI rename problem?
[05:41] <ubuntu_> hi
[05:41] <griffin_> Frogzoo, I rean grub-install /dev/hda
[05:41] <LethalSword> hi i need help install amsn now
[05:41] <LinuxJones> ubuntu_: welcom
[05:41] <LethalSword> i dont know how to install the tcltls package
[05:41] <griffin_> my prob is the same: Failed: minix module not found, mount: mounting /dev/hdb1 or /root failed
[05:41] <chuckyp> LethalSword, you know you can use gaim for msn right?
[05:41] <oskude> kp__, you dont mount dvd drives, you mount the disc (filesystems) in it... do you have a disc in it ?
[05:42] <chuckyp> LethalSword, or you can sudo apt-get install amsn
[05:42] <LinuxJones> griffin_: can you boot to an older kernel or in recovery mode ?
[05:42] <LethalSword>   amsn: Depends: tcltls but it is not installable
[05:42] <HeMan> when i try root=LABEL=/ i get unknown option, should it work or should I solve the SCSI rename problem any other way?
[05:42] <kp__> oskude: Sorry that's what i meant. On Hoary they auto mounted fine aswell as manually but in breezy it wont.
[05:43] <LethalSword> how do i install that package
[05:43] <griffin_> LinuxJones: I tried that right away, but I get the same errors.  I was wondering if there is a prob with menu.lst, but nothing looks wrong to me (a total noob)
[05:43] <sorush21> hig guys how do change the permission of one of my partitions so that I as a non root can run it? I guss what I'm trying to say is that I don't really understand the chmod manual
[05:43] <chuckyp> LethalSword, are you trying to install it via apt?
[05:43] <LethalSword> yea
[05:43] <chuckyp> LethalSword, you may need to enable the universe or multiverse and thent ry.
[05:43] <tristanmike> LethalSword, have you enabled the universe ?
[05:43] <LethalSword> how i do that?
[05:43] <chuckyp> s/ry/try
[05:43] <chuckyp> LethalSword, are you using gnome?
[05:43] <oskude> kp__, yeah, my printer was allso not automaticly found/configures in breezy, but worked in hoary...
[05:43] <tristanmike> !tell LethalSword about universe
[05:44] <LethalSword> yes im using ubuntu breezy badger
[05:44] <tristanmike> LethalSword, check you pm from ubotu
[05:44] <chuckyp> LethalSword, are you trying to install it with synaptic or apt?
[05:44] <LethalSword> apt
[05:44] <chuckyp> LethalSword, yeah read the pm
[05:44] <kp__> oskude: What do you suggest i do then?.
[05:44] <chuckyp> LethalSword, it will tell you to edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:45] <chuckyp> kp_, can't you just add them to fstab?
[05:45] <tristanmike> !tell LethalSword about sources
[05:45] <oskude> kp__, i dont know nothing about the auto mounting things, i mostly mount manully (when auto dont work)
[05:45] <kp__> oskude: Ill have to google some more then, as it wont even mount manually.
[05:46] <chuckyp> kp_, what are you trying to mount?
[05:46] <oskude> kp__, not even as root ? (sudo)
[05:46] <chuckyp> kp_, and what filesystem is on it?
[05:46] <Crazy_Man> anyone know the package for ATI drivers?
[05:46] <chuckyp> !ati
[05:46] <ubotu> well, 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
[05:46] <kp__> oskude: Nope
[05:47] <kp__> chuckyp: It's a normal data dvd created in ubuntu hoary
[05:47] <chuckyp> kp_, so its a nix filesystem then?
[05:47] <chuckyp> kp_, you should be able to auto mount it then mount /dev/hd?   /my/butt
[05:47] <vax_> hello
[05:47] <chuckyp> kp_, well sudo mount ofcourse
[05:48] <chuckyp> yello
[05:48] <kp__> chuckyp: Thats the thing, not even sudo will mount any type of dvd/cd or floppy
[05:48] <chuckyp> kp_, what error do you get?
[05:48] <vax_> I'm searching about lame encoding but I dont find on the ubuntu universe and multiverse archives, where I find?
[05:48] <chuckyp> kp_, and does the folder you are trying to mount it to exhist?
[05:48] <kp__> chuckyp: Yes
[05:48] <chuckyp> !tell vax_ about restricted
[05:48] <kp__> chuckyp: Weird huh.
[05:49] <chuckyp> kp_, what error do you get?
[05:49] <kp__> chuckyp: Now that's asking, im at work atm. I'll have to come back on in 30minutes or so and tell you the exact error
[05:49] <babo> Hi guys, I've done an     fuser filesystem       and it's thrown up what look like pid's   4756c   ... what's the best way to find info on them ? ... the pid's that is ...

[05:50] <LethalSword> i enabled the universe thing
[05:50] <vax_> chuckyp, where?
[05:51] <chuckyp> vax_, read the pm from ubotu
[05:51] <vax_> chuckyp, I've all fount active
[05:51] <LethalSword> but how do i install that one package
[05:51] <chuckyp> LethalSword, also enable multiverse
[05:51] <vax_> ah, Ok, thx
[05:51] <LethalSword> i did
[05:51] <vax_> I don't see, now yes
[05:51] <chuckyp> LethalSword, just sudo apt-get install <packagename>
[05:51] <LethalSword> i did
[05:51] <LethalSword> it didnt work
[05:51] <chuckyp> LethalSword, after you sudo apt-get update

[05:52] <LethalSword> yea
[05:53] <chuckyp> LethalSword, close synaptic in xwindows
[05:53] <LethalSword> im logged in as root through the terminal
[05:53] <_Lamont_> _jason Thanks! It still isn't working, but editing the line that link indicated in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini now lets my script correctly report a failed connection - I'm closer :)
[05:53] <LethalSword> lol thats why
[05:53] <chuckyp> LethalSword, if synaptic is open or the update manager is doing something you'll get those erros
[05:53] <LethalSword> yea i just realized lol
[05:53] <katarot> i think i know what my problem is now but dont know how to fix i type sudo ifup wlan0 and then i get this error Ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0

[05:54] <LethalSword> E: Package tcltls has no installation candidate
[05:54] <LethalSword> :S
[05:54] <chuckyp> katarot, and I think when you use those you may have to ifup eth#
[05:54] <Noahj> Spam
[05:54] <katarot> yeah i says driver present and hardware present
[05:54] <LethalSword> how do i install that package
[05:54] <Crazy_Man> I'm assuming I have to use the non-free ATI drivers to get xgl working, right?
[05:54] <chuckyp> LethalSword, sudo apt-get install amsn
[05:55] <chuckyp> LethalSword, or use gaim I dunno
[05:55] <chuckyp> LethalSword, you'd have to add it yourself if apt-get install amsn doesn't work
[05:55] <vax_> chuckyp, I've follow yesterday that instruction but the packages that I need don't are in.
[05:55] <tristanmike> LethalSword, it's there, I can bring it up
[05:55] <tristanmike> http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=tcltls&searchon=names&subword=1&version=breezy&release=all
[05:55] <katarot> ok thanks now i go boot up ubuntu lol
[05:55] <chuckyp> vax_, what package do you need?  and do you have multiverse and universe enabled?  You can also search for packages.
[05:56] <LethalSword> yea but gaim is wierd
[05:56] <gimmulf> !iso
[05:56] <ubotu> it has been said that iso is download Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ and for help burning the CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[05:56] <vax_> yes I have unuverse and multiverse enabled
[05:56] <vax_> I need a lame package
[05:56] <LethalSword> the emoticons and symbols always appear in front of the text
[05:56] <chuckyp> LethalSword, what does it tell you when you apt-get install amsn
[05:56] <gimmulf> anyone know how i make an iso of an cdrom?
[05:56] <LethalSword> root@GM:/home/cody/Desktop# apt-get install amsn
[05:56] <LethalSword> Reading package lists... Done
[05:56] <LethalSword> Building dependency tree... Done
[05:56] <LethalSword> Package amsn is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[05:56] <LethalSword> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[05:56] <LethalSword> is only available from another source
[05:56] <LethalSword> E: Package amsn has no installation candidate
[05:56] <chuckyp> gimmulf, mkisofs
[05:56] <LethalSword> root@GM:/home/cody/Desktop#
[05:56] <subsonic_shadow> anyone using dictd (dictionary)?
[05:56] <chuckyp> LethalSword, it doesn't exhist int he repos then.
[05:56] <vax_> chuckyp, if I search in synaptic it don't find
[05:57] <LethalSword> how do i add it?
[05:57] <apokryphos> LethalSword: read the topic; please do not flood the channel
[05:57] <chuckyp> LethalSword, you would have to install it from source
[05:57] <LethalSword> ok
[05:57] <LethalSword> but its a .deb
[05:57] <nickrud> gimmulf, dd /dev/cdrom0 -bs 1024 file.iso should work
[05:57] <LethalSword> and i dont know how
[05:57] <chuckyp> vax_, perhaps the package isn't there.
[05:57] <vax_> chuckyp, yes I think too
[05:57] <chuckyp> LethalSword, well ifyou have a .deb use dpkg -i <name>.deb
[05:57] <vax_> thx
[05:58] <gimmulf> nickrud:  dd: unrecognized option `/dev/cdrom'
[05:58] <tristanmike> LethalSword, for a .deb "sudo dpkg -i <filename.deb>
[05:58] <nickrud> gimmulf, ls /dev/cdrom* , it's one of those, probably *0
[05:58] <tristanmike> LethalSword, with out the <> of course ;)
[05:58] <robinl1> hey guys, i have a question
[05:58] <LethalSword> Package tcltls is not installed.
[05:58] <LethalSword> it needs that package
[05:58] <vax_> nobody know a repositories for get "lame"?
[05:58] <gimmulf> nickrud:  seems like i only have "/dev/cdrom"
[05:59] <LethalSword> but if i do apt-get install tcltls it doesnt work
[05:59] <oskude> LethalSword, did you do sudo apt-get update ?
[05:59] <percent20> is there somewhere I can get the ubuntu config file for the kernel?
[05:59] <LethalSword> yea
[05:59] <chuckyp> vax_, if all you want to do is install lame?
[05:59] <oskude> LethalSword, after the error ?
[05:59] <gimmulf> nickrud:  its also /dev/cdrom when i mount it
[05:59] <tristanmike> LethalSword, paste your source.list on pastebin
[05:59] <tristanmike> !tell LethalSword about pastebin
[05:59] <LethalSword> ?
[05:59] <chuckyp> vax_, sudo apt-get lame
[05:59] <nickrud> gimmulf, my memory sucks, I should have looked up the exact syntax dd if=/dev/cdrom of=file.iso -bs 1024
[05:59] <robinl1> on MPD, i get this error: problems opening audio device while playing "01  The world will shiver(the official Masters of Hardcore 2005 anthem).mp3"
[05:59] <robinl1> , with the mpc client, it won't play-  anyone know whats wrong? anything ubuntu-specific?
[06:00] <robinl1> ... oops, line split oO
[06:00] <gimmulf> nickrud:  dd: unrecognized option `-bs' :)
[06:00] <vax_> chuckyp, I've try but nothing to do..
[06:00] <thompa-B> does anyone know how to configure sound in gnome, i used to use alsaconfig?
[06:00] <vax_> yes I want only to install lame
[06:00] <LethalSword> i did the update again but it still needs that package
[06:00] <chuckyp> robinl1, did you install the codecs for mp3?
[06:00] <robinl1> chuckyp: Yes.
[06:00] <tristanmike> LethalSword, "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" to see your sources, and post them on Pastebin(see pm from ubotu)
[06:01] <nickrud> gimmulf, duh. drop the - on the bs, I should know better, I've done that at least a couple dozen times :)
[06:01] <gimmulf> nickrud:  its dd if=/dev/cdrom of=file.iso bs=1024
[06:01] <gimmulf> :)
[06:01] <gimmulf> thanks for the help
[06:01] <nickrud> gimmulf, man pages are nice, aren't they
[06:01] <gimmulf> true :)
[06:02] <LethalSword> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10294
[06:02] <chuckyp> gimmulf, why are you using dd to make an iso?
[06:02] <gimmulf> chuckyp: Someone told me it was possible :)
[06:02] <gimmulf> i have never done it before
[06:02] <thompa-B> im just trying to get any sound working
[06:02] <chuckyp> gimmulf, lol
[06:03] <oskude> !repos
[06:03] <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
[06:03] <robinl1> chuckyp: it indeeed IS possible to do that
[06:03] <thefish> how can i exclude certain directories when I use find? somehting like "find / -name fred -exclude /bob"
[06:03] <chuckyp> thompa-B, system>administration>sound
[06:03] <nickrud> chuckyp, copy an iso to the harddrive, then write multiple cds from there
[06:03] <blekos__> how can i remove kubuntu?
[06:03] <tristanmike> LethalSword, ok, you didn't follow the directions, follow the link that ubotu just posted and enable your "Universe and Mulitverse"
[06:03] <oskude> LethalSword, you have to activate the repos where the packages are
[06:03] <chuckyp> blekos_, sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[06:04] <andre> hello
[06:04] <LethalSword> but i did enable universe
[06:04] <highvoltage> hello
[06:04] <vax_> ok, good bye all :)
[06:04] <blekos__> does this remove all kubuntu components?
[06:04] <vax_> have nice work with Ubuntu
[06:04] <chuckyp> LethalSword, you need to remove the # symbol int he front
[06:04] <oskude> LethalSword, read line 12 on your pastebin
[06:04] <andre> just installled ubuntu
[06:04] <chuckyp> blekos_, yes thats the meta package
[06:04] <antineo> what is the root password for a fresh kubuntu install?
[06:04] <vax_> chuckyp, bye
[06:04] <vax_> and thanks
[06:04] <thompa-B> chuckyp: that has hda intel which is correct,
[06:04] <tristanmike> LethalSword, you may think you did, but it did not get done, as you can clearly see the only line with "universe" is commented (ie has a # in front)
[06:04] <chuckyp> !tell antineo about sudo
[06:05] <chuckyp> vax_, np
[06:05] <oskude> LethalSword, you have to use sudo to edit that file
[06:05] <andre> i dont know if it settup a password for root
[06:05] <tristanmike> oskude, he's in root
[06:05] <chuckyp> !tell andre about sudo
[06:05] <LethalSword> im downloading all the packages now
[06:05] <andre> sudo
[06:05] <mikebot> does anyone here know php? i know there is a php channel, but they are very unresponsive
[06:05] <athlon> antineo: just "sudo su"
[06:05] <LethalSword> ok all universe is in
[06:06] <chuckyp> athlon, no
[06:06] <tristanmike> !tell LethalSword about repos
[06:06] <athlon> antineo: well if you really want to change the password, just change it from root shell
[06:06] <LethalSword> i just enabled universe
[06:06] <athlon> erk
[06:06] <athlon> okay, that was for andre
[06:06] <chuckyp> athlon, he should sudo -s for root prompt doing su and su - will mess them all up.
[06:06] <hume> hi... i try to play dvd-movies on my thinkpad laptop, but they do not run smoothly - is there something to do to adjust it?
[06:06] <tristanmike> LethalSword, please look at your pm and follow the wiki, you must still enable the rest of universe and enable all of multiverse
[06:06] <antineo> athlon: i can't get to the root shell: sudo asks me for a password
[06:06] <blekos__> chukyp, i mean a want to remove kubuntu as a system from my computer that is oo.-kde etc etc
[06:06] <gimmulf> I have to run dhclient everytime i've rebooted to get my internet running, this happened after i tried to configure pppoe and then went back to dhcp, any suggestions?
[06:06] <nickrud> LethalSword, for multiverse, add the word multiverse to the end of lines 19 & 20 as well.
[06:06] <oskude> mikebot, i know a little php and im bored so you may pm me :)
[06:06] <LethalSword> u guys are the best
[06:06] <LethalSword> it works
[06:06] <athlon> antineo: sudo asks for your user password
[06:06] <andre> hold on guys too slow
[06:07] <chuckyp> hume, on the restricted page there is something abou tit
[06:07] <chuckyp> !tell hume about restricted
[06:07] <antineo> athlon: lol, ty
[06:07] <chuckyp> blekos_, you want to uninstall linux right?
[06:07] <chuckyp> blekos_, or just remove kde?
[06:07] <LethalSword> hell yea
[06:07] <LethalSword> thank u all
[06:07] <LethalSword> :)
[06:07] <LethalSword> bye
[06:07] <chuckyp> thank god
[06:08] <xst> Is using samba the only way of sharing my printer to a windows-box?
[06:08] <xst> Or can windows find cups-printers?
[06:08] <andre> lethal doesnt like linux
[06:08] <blekos__> remove everything that was installed when i installed kubuntu (i had installed ubuntu previously) that is the kde environmnet as a whole
[06:08] <chuckyp> xst, no windows won't find it.
[06:08] <blekos__> i want 2 do that, cause i think its messing with my gnome
[06:08] <jubun> sorry for asking again. I've had conection problems previous  time. Is there any problem if i "rm /var/cache/apt/archives" to gain more free disk space ?
[06:08] <andre> ooh i have a dual boot
[06:08] <chuckyp> blekos_, yes then removing kubuntu-desktop will get ride of kde
[06:08] <nickrud> blekos_, sudo apt-get remove libqt3-mt , that will remove about 99% of kde
[06:09] <xst> chuckyp: ok. thanks
[06:09] <chuckyp> blekos_, but doing kubuntu-desktop may get rid of oo and stuff.
[06:09] <chuckyp> xst, yeah just use samba
[06:09] <_jason> chuckyp: removing kubuntu-desktop will do nothing but remove the kubuntu-desktop meta package
[06:09] <nickrud> chuckyp, kubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package, it won't remove kde
[06:10] <_jason> unless you use aptitude, then I think it would work
[06:10] <chuckyp> nickrud, ahh I thought they would put it so it would pull kde etc..
[06:10] <anakronis> anyone know where i can track down whatever is making my screen blank out after a given amount of minutes in regular console mode?
[06:10] <nickrud> chuckyp, if you install with aptitude, as _jason says
[06:10] <jubun> sorry for asking again. I've had conection problems previous  time. Is there any problem if i "rm /var/cache/apt/archives" to gain more free disk space ?
[06:10] <nickrud> chuckyp, pull in, put not take out

[06:10] <thegladiator> !iso] 
[06:10] <ubotu> thegladiator: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:10] <thegladiator> !iso
[06:10] <ubotu> somebody said iso was download Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ and for help burning the CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[06:11] <anakronis> jubun: no problem
[06:11] <andre> i have tried sevel os this week im curius is ubuntu your favorite
[06:11] <chuckyp> andre, no I hate it.
[06:11] <jubun> tnx anakronis :)
[06:12] <andre> what do you use
[06:12] <chuckyp> andre, ubuntu
[06:12] <tyler_> any script for me to change spaces into underscores?
[06:12] <Noahj> Andre: I use ubuntu, susu, debian, and kubuntu. I like ubuntu most of all.
[06:12] <chuckyp> tyler_, you could use sed
[06:12] <antineo> how would I increase the speed of my touchpad?
[06:12] <_jason> tyler_: in a file?
[06:12] <tyler_> in a directopry
[06:12] <chuckyp> tyler_, hrm...
[06:12] <Absenth> Has anyone seen an error in breezy during installation....  The background turns red, and it says "Copying packages to the hard disk failed.  you may have run out of disk space.......  bla blah blah..." on a system that has previously installed breezy without a problem at all.
[06:12] <thegladiator> hi , to write an ISO , the site say , browse to the iso file , right click on it and in the menu chose "write to disc" does that do it ?
[06:12] <tyler_> i know theres one.. like ./textXXXspces.. somthing like that!
[06:12] <chuckyp> antineo, put oil on it.
[06:13] <LethalSword> i forgot to ask
[06:13] <andre> sorry this is myfirst chat on linux sorry dont know everything be gentle
[06:13] <Absenth> A 4gb / should be plenty large shouldn't it.
[06:13] <LethalSword> do u need a antivirus with ubuntu
[06:13] <_jason> tyler_: try rename -n 'y/ /_/' *, if it does what you want then get rid of the -n
[06:13] <thegladiator> LethalSword, no
[06:13] <thegladiator> LethalSword, its not really needed
[06:13] <antineo> chuckyp: i've tryed that, it doesn't work :-\
[06:13] <thegladiator> hi , to write an ISO , the site say , browse to the iso file , right click on it and in the menu chose "write to disc" does that do it ?
[06:13] <LethalSword> not even if u use windows applications in it?
[06:13] <nickrud> Absenth, I've run ubuntu quite well on about 4GB
[06:13] <thegladiator> LethalSword, if u run a windows virus in wine perhaps , but even thats unclear to me
[06:14] <LethalSword> ill get panda anti virus later
[06:14] <LethalSword> lol
[06:14] <thegladiator> LethalSword, u cant normally run windows virus
[06:14] <Absenth> nickrud, that's what I thought.  I'm trying to install in a vmware virtual machine, which I've done numerous times before, but now it's not allowing me to install
[06:14] <nickrud> thegladiator, yes, I do it exactly that way
[06:14] <LethalSword> ok
[06:14] <thegladiator> thank nickrud
[06:14] <LethalSword> bye
[06:14] <andre> about sudo again
[06:14] <nickrud> Absenth, I wouldn't have a clue about vmware, sorry. I've only used bare metal machines
[06:15] <Absenth> nickrud, nod nod,  thing is, I get the same error if I try to install it on the drive outside of vmware as well.
[06:15] <akk> I just updated dapper, and it overwrote my static nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf. Why did it do that?
[06:15] <blekos__> ok guys, i have a tip to offer to the community, if for some reason your openoffice in gnome makes funny things, that is the buttons disappear when you pass the mouse over them, it has to do with kubuntu
[06:15] <_jason> !dapper
[06:15] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[06:15] <Absenth> nickrud, don't suppose you know of a live-cd based tool I can use to check the status of my hard disk?
[06:15] <blekos__> i just confirmed it... removed kubuntu et voila :~)
[06:15] <chuckyp> akk, because its not a stable release yet.
[06:15] <akk> The resolvconf man page talks about PPP and stuff like that, but doesn't seem to admit the possibility that one might use a static IP address with static nameservers.
[06:16] <nickrud> Absenth, toms root boot disk, if you have a floppy is the smallest I know of
[06:16] <thegladiator> nickrud, iso means ISO9660 Image Files right ?
[06:16] <akk> chuckyp: Sure, it's not that big a deal, but I'm wondering if I should report it as a bug, if it's a known problem, if it's intentional, etc.
[06:16] <richard> how can i see other computer in my network, i use linux but others use windos, i configure samba, but i can't see others
[06:16] <chuckyp> akk, dunno i use dhcp
[06:16] <nickrud> thegladiator, yes
[06:16] <HappyFool> akk: if you use resolvconf, /etc/resolv.conf will change afaik
[06:16] <HappyFool> akk: you're supposed to set the static nameservers somewhere else
[06:16] <akk> HappyFool: So anyone who intends to use static IP should remove resolvconf first thing?
[06:16] <chuckyp> richard, places>network servers
[06:17] <nickrud> thegladiator, erm, well I don't know if that's the exact expansion of the acronym
[06:17] <katarot> sudo ifup eth# didnt work
[06:17] <HappyFool> akk: i use breezy; i had to install it manually. don't know about dapper
[06:17] <richard> chuckyp: i use kde and i can't find this link
[06:17] <HappyFool> (by `manually' i mean apt-get)
[06:17] <chuckyp> katarot, is the card showing up like if you do iwconfig?  or ifconfig?
[06:17] <percent20> !upgrade
[06:17] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade.  Upgrading to dapper (remember it may break). Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html.
[06:17] <chuckyp> katarot, iwconfig -a ifconfig -a
[06:18] <akk> I guess I'll go ahead and file it as a bug.
[06:18] <katarot> i havent check that yet lol
[06:18] <Absenth> katarot, as a covering all the bases,  did you ifconfig eth# up,  or did you ifconfig eth0 up
[06:19] <Absenth> katarot, since # won't work :)
[06:19] <katarot> i tryied 0 to
[06:19] <nickrud> akk, there's a mechanism for static dns with resolvconf, the man page has it. I think may be as simple as dropping a template in /etc/resolvconf
[06:20] <chuckyp> katarot, yeah lol I was saying # just to mean number.   Like insert your number there.  But yeah if you do a iwconfig -a after ndiswrapper is loaded and everything it should show you card.  Then you just hav eto configure it for the network.
[06:20] <richard> chuckyp: which command can i execute to going network servers?
[06:20] <chuckyp> richard, on the menu in gnome
[06:21] <Absenth> katarot, on my laptop (which has both a 10/100, and a Wireless ethernet adapter)  the 10/100 is eth0,  the wireless is eth1
[06:21] <chuckyp> richard, or are you in terminal?
[06:21] <katarot> ok im a bit confused lol can you go thourgh the steps
[06:21] <richard> chuckyp: no i use kubuntu
[06:21] <Absenth> when it lets me install
[06:21] <chuckyp> katarot, well you get ndiswrapper loaded with the proper drivers.
[06:21] <Absenth> katarot, from a command line type.....  ifconfig -a
[06:21] <Absenth> and then iwconfig -a
[06:21] <chuckyp> katarot, then if you do an iwconfig -a or ifconfig -a  (may need sudo infront of that) your card should show up.
[06:22] <katarot> ok thanks i go try
[06:22] <chuckyp> katarot, Just to see if its working.   Then all you need to do is configure it.
[06:22] <lurid> does anyone know of a site that will teach someone how to make an ubuntu box a firewall/gateway for other machines on the network?
[06:22] <gimmulf> Anyone with experience of Vmware?
[06:22] <chuckyp> !firewall
[06:22] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
[06:22] <chuckyp> !vmware
[06:22] <ubotu> chuckyp: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:22] <lurid> nice.
[06:23] <ntars> hi @ all
[06:23] <blekos__> ,
[06:23] <lurid> does this firewall support gateway connections?
[06:23] <lurid> i have two other machines i would like to protect.
[06:23] <Absenth> Has anyone here looked to see if PF from OpenBSD can be compiled to run on ubuntu?
[06:23] <linkd> lurid: yes it does.
[06:23] <lurid> alright, thank you.
[06:24] <richard> chuckyp: are you still there?
[06:24] <chuckyp> richard, yes
[06:24] <LouNGeR> hey there
[06:24] <richard> I use kubuntu-desktop, for that reason i can find network servers?  can you help me?
[06:24] <silasj> hello
[06:25] <silasj> oh... no ksh on the repositories!
[06:25] <akk> My resolv.conf bug was already reported as 31057, if anyone cares (I added a comment).
[06:25] <chuckyp> richard, possibly someone that uses kde can help.  I'm used to gnome.   you could try browsing to one of the network computers by ip address inthe filebrowser I dunno.
[06:26] <richard> chuckyp: thank you
[06:26] <HappyFool> silasj: maybe pdksh is what you want?
[06:26] <silasj> pdksh? let me see...
[06:26] <akk> Weird, bug 10858 rejects a similar bug saying "resolvconf is not a supported package". Maybe that changed in dapper.
[06:26] <lakcaj> richard, are you trying to discover the ip addresses and what ports are open on machines in the lan, or connect to ip addresses you already know and don't know what program to use to connect?
[06:27] <lsald_> ? I know there is a way to fix the console font resolution. These big fonts have to go. I have tried adding vga=ask to the menu.1st with no avail. So, do I have to disable the framebuffer?
[06:27] <LouNGeR> I'm having a strange problem on Breezy-64:   when I do   "sudo sh some_program.sh"   it starts unpacking and shows the dots and stuff, but then just stops and does back to command line, without error or anything
[06:27] <Jonnings> anyone know of a nice mp3 player that has a searchabe playlist?

[06:27] <linkd> Jonnings: xmms and beep-media-player do
[06:27] <akk> LouNGeR: What is some_program.sh and what's it supposed to do? It's supposed to show dots, then print something else?
[06:27] <lakcaj> RHYTHMBOX
[06:27] <Jonnings> mmms has it?
[06:28] <amish> Hi i have a problem with my gaim it wont connect for some reason why not?
[06:28] <linkd> Jonnings: yea hit "j"
[06:28] <LouNGeR> I tried with cedega_timedemo and mohaa linux client
[06:28] <richard> lakcaj: i want to see other computers in network, there are about 100 computers, but i can't see one of them.. i want to share information but it's imposible cause i can't see
[06:28] <Jonnings> cool
[06:28] <LouNGeR> they dont install too, it just does nothing
[06:28] <Jonnings> some of my mp3's sound very messy, is this a codec thing, or must i just accept it?
[06:29] <grabe> GUADALINEX?
[06:29] <andre> what do you use too play dvds
[06:29] <oskude> dvd player ;)
[06:29] <linkd> Jonnings: with programs which have an equaliser you can attempt to try and balance the sounds
[06:29] <akk> LouNGeR: Sounds like there's a problem with the shell scripts. Those programs install from shell scripts rather than packages?
[06:29] <grabe> #guadalinex
[06:29] <andre> hahha
[06:29] <andre> xine
[06:29] <Jonnings> k, thx
[06:30] <LouNGeR> well yeh they are SH files, usually when I used those everything went fine (I always saw the dots btw)
[06:30] <amish> Any one help me and try to figure out why my gaim isnt connecting?
[06:30] <andre> ooh ok thanks
[06:30] <lakcaj> richard, how do you want to share information?  Over what protocol (ssh, samba, etc?)
[06:30] <lsald_> If it would help anyone help me, I'm running dapper, but I really believe this is not a 'distro' type ailment
[06:30] <LouNGeR> now its just a couple dots and over with the fun
[06:30] <richard> lakcaj: samba cause other computers have windows
[06:30] <lakcaj> richard, to just discover the ip addresses, try this is the terminal        nmap 192.168.0.*
[06:30] <linkd> amish: does it give any errors?
[06:31] <ruzgar> is there a program like nero in ubuntu?
[06:31] <grabe> alguien habla espaol
[06:31] <amish> It gets to authenticating sloly then it jsut stops
[06:31] <Ramunas> hello, is it possible to compile ntfs driver as module and then load it with modprobe ?
[06:31] <tristanmike> !es
[06:31] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[06:31] <akk> ruzgar: Is that a CD burning program? k3b works well.
[06:31] <linkd> amish: do u have any other problems connecting to other services?
[06:31] <Ramunas> !ntfs
[06:31] <ubotu> it has been said that ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[06:31] <amish> I did have a poblem with my DNS but it was fixxed by turing ip6 off
[06:31] <tristanmike> ruzgar, yes, actually there is NeroLinux
[06:32] <lakcaj> richard, you could try komba2 or linneighborhood to browse the samba shares
[06:32] <amish> I get a "reading error" of gaim
[06:32] <tristanmike> ruzgar, but it's UI is abhorrid
[06:32] <chris12349> is there an e2label for a win32 filesystem?
[06:32] <ruzgar> ui ?
[06:32] <LouNGeR> akk: I'm on to the dutch chan, I think it's easier for me, thanks for your time
[06:32] <tristanmike> ruzgar, user interface
[06:32] <ruzgar> ok
[06:32] <richard> lakcaj: i execute nmap ip.. but it can't find this command
[06:32] <zielony> Hello, how can I remove COMPLETLY mysql installed from source ?
[06:32] <ruzgar> nerolinux is free
[06:32] <ruzgar> ?
[06:32] <ruzgar> is nerolinux free
[06:33] <linkd> amish: hmm, run gaim like this from a terminal "gaim --debug" and tell me what message it ends at
[06:33] <tristanmike> ruzgar, no, of course not :P but k3b is ;)
[06:33] <lsald_> I need help with a framebuffer issue, or what i believe to be a framebuffer issue
[06:33] <lakcaj> richard, do you have nmap installed?  Help me out here a little
[06:33] <ruzgar> k3b can make a iso image
[06:33] <ruzgar> ?
[06:33] <erg0t_> hi every1, sorry i had to leave
[06:33] <lakcaj> yes
[06:33] <ruzgar> can k3b make a iso image
[06:33] <lakcaj> ruzgar, yes
[06:33] <erg0t_> so i was asking what could be wrong with my ubuntu
[06:33] <ruzgar> ok thanks
[06:33] <erg0t_> since i dont have network access
[06:33] <erg0t_> and using the same config
[06:33] <erg0t_> i do have it in winsucks
[06:33] <amish> ok, will do
[06:33] <O_Rei_do_Gado> hello anybody could help set odbc drivers (after mdac 2.8 instalattion) under crossover?
[06:33] <tristanmike> ruzgar, there's not too much k3b can't do, it's a really beautiful program
[06:34] <richard> lakcaj: excuse me, what is help me out
[06:34] <lakcaj> ruzgar, cd burning apps in linux will typically create an iso before it burns
[06:34] <ruzgar> lakcaj last question is it work with dvds
[06:34] <void^> erg0t_: can you ping a local box?
[06:34] <lakcaj> richard, install nmap if you don't have it
[06:34] <oskude> zielony, in best case "make uninstall" or similar. but mostly that doesnt really work, so i used "make checkinstall" instead of "make install"
[06:34] <lakcaj> ruzgar, yes
[06:34] <ruzgar> ok thanks a lot
[06:34] <tristanmike> Anyone have any ideas for this error   "FIXME: PlayMovie("video/int_logo_stratagus.avi",6) not supported."
[06:35] <zielony> oskude: But when I made make install, I can`t remove it so easly ?
[06:35] <oskude> zielony, try "make uninstall"
[06:35] <zielony> dont work
[06:35] <zielony> grep mysql and removing all files/folders can do the job ?
[06:35] <oskude> zielony, im not sure if its uninstall, read the readmes
[06:36] <oxigen> i just mounted iso file in hda/media/iso. can i install ubuntu on the other hdb disk from there, and how?
[06:36] <oskude> zielony, and AFAIK its upto the coders if they add an "uninstall" funktion...
[06:37] <balay> hi! I'm on /var/cache/apt/archives , Can I remove all the packages in here?
[06:38] <zielony> oskude: there is make uninstall, but it doesn`t make anything
[06:38] <oskude> zielony, using "make checkinstall" insted of "make install" would make a deb package out of the source and installs it. that way you can uninstall it easily with apt-et
[06:38] <nickrud> akk: resolvconf uses dns name-servers defined in /etc/network/interfaces ; see /usr/share/doc/resolvconf/README.gz , section 3.4
[06:38] <oxigen> balay: dont do it by hand
[06:38] <oskude> zielony, did you do it with sudo ?
[06:38] <lsald_> how do i change the console font size outside of x
[06:38] <zielony> yep
[06:38] <balay> oxigen: wy? And how should i do it then?
[06:38] <richard> lakcaj: now i have installed nmap.. and now
[06:38] <savon> how to install ati on a 64bits amd turion?
[06:38] <amish> linkd: any ideas why?
[06:39] <oskude> zielony, then it seems the coders didnt "implement" it...
[06:39] <oxigen> balay: you have some clean command. read man apt
[06:39] <akk> nickrud: Thanks! That file is gone now since I uninstalled resolvconf, but I'll find it somewhere and read it.
[06:39] <savon> I have followed the guide, but then I can=t start x!
[06:39] <balay> ah ok , tks :)
[06:39] <sharp_> yo
[06:39] <lakcaj> richard, you can use nmap to scan your lan.  Suppose your ip address is 192.168.0.5 for example, and you want to find out what other machines there are on that subnet.  Then run nmap 192.168.0.*
[06:39] <nickrud> akk: resolvconf was written to remove various packages conflicting methods of updating resolv.conf, if you're using more than one of the ones mentioned in the readme, you might want to get it bac.
[06:39] <linkd> amish: what was the output?
[06:40] <vicks> whats the cli command to search for packages?
[06:40] <oskude> zielony, a stupid idea: remake it with checkinstall and then remove it (in my theory it should remove everything :)
[06:40] <lakcaj> apt-cache search
[06:40] <vicks> thanks
[06:40] <linkd> amish: pastebin it or paste the last line or something
[06:40] <zielony> ok, I`ll check that
[06:40] <akk> nickrud: I have a static set of nameservers that never changes; I'm not using any ppp-type stuff.
[06:40] <amish> ok i will
[06:41] <akk> nickrud: It looks like some package is assuming that those addresses got added to interfaces at some point, but maybe the old dapper installer (I installed from flight 3) didn't do that?
[06:41] <akk> nickrud: (Actually it wasn't the installer since that only allows dhcp, so it would have been the network config app after first boot)
[06:41] <savon> does someone has a clue?
[06:42] <richard> lakcaj: it show me port state and service... now i want to see if that computer have any share file.
[06:42] <giamma> irc.thundercity.net/join #asp
[06:42] <linkd> giamma: no
[06:42] <katarot>  ok can i paste in here what i got when i did th iwconfig command it really long
[06:42] <akk> Bah, this README doesn't seem to be online anywhere, but I found a mailing list posting referring to it
[06:43] <kuja> How do I change my console (outside of X) screen to a different size? It' rather small, but I don't know how big it can get, given that my monitor is a 17" and my graphics card is a TNT2.
[06:43] <amish> linkd: http://pastebin.com/603780
[06:43] <nickrud> akk: I don't know enough to say much more than I have. I used resolvconf on debian, it was useful since I was sometimes on ppp, other times on dsl, and it made my local dns cache & resolving transparent
[06:43] <Howitzer> Ehmm
[06:43] <akk> pointing out that man interfaces doesn't give a hint of this
[06:43] <Howitzer> It may sound silly, but can somebody give me an idea for a project?
[06:43] <Howitzer> I'm bored now that Ubuntu is all set up :(
[06:43] <kuja> Howitzer: What sort of project?
[06:43] <kuja> Programming? Other?
[06:43] <nickrud> akk: yeah, I'm adding a comment to that bug report :)
[06:43] <ompaul> Howitzer, what is your background?
[06:43] <Howitzer> something to work on with linux
[06:44] <blekos__> ok guys, i have a rather silly question...
[06:44] <Howitzer> something to gain extra performance maybe
[06:44] <akk> nickrud: It might work better if this interfaces change was (a) documented in the man page and (b) done by the network app when the user sets the nameservers.
[06:44] <Howitzer> a big project xD
[06:44] <kuja> Howitzer: Make a shell script that takes your porn collection and uploads it to a public FTP server.
[06:44] <erg0t_> void^, havent tried it
[06:44] <richard> lakcaj: are you still there?
[06:44] <redguy> blekos__: this kind of questions is the best :-)
[06:44] <erg0t_> void^, pinging a local box
[06:44] <blekos__> i have an ipaq running mobile windows  5, is it possible to be sync with ubuntu?
[06:44] <erg0t_> but why would i be able to use the network with the _same_ configuration in windows
[06:44] <erg0t_> and not in ubuntu?
[06:44] <blekos__> do u still blieve so redguy?
[06:44] <nickrud> akk: no argument there
[06:44] <erg0t_> what am i missing?
[06:45] <Howitzer> kuja, no can do, i have a max of 10gb/mo bandwith, uploading my porn collection would make me go halfway there :(
[06:45] <Noahj> Howitzer: Comic grabbing script? theming?
[06:45] <redguy> blekos__: hrm, nothing silly about it actually
[06:45] <Howitzer> hmm
[06:45] <kuja> Howitzer: Damn... then only upload the non-gay stuff.
[06:45] <nickrud> akk: I rebooted to breezy, so I lost that bug number, could you repeat it
[06:45] <kuja> :)
[06:45] <Howitzer> eh
[06:45] <Howitzer> i have maybe like one gay pic
[06:45] <lakcaj> richard, you could try komba2 or linneighborhood to browse the samba shares
[06:45] <Howitzer> and that was an accident
[06:45] <nickrud> akk: s/breezy/dapper/
[06:45] <akk> nickrud: 31057 looks the most relevant
[06:45] <kuja> lol
[06:45] <nickrud> akk: thanks
[06:45] <Howitzer> OOH
[06:45] <Howitzer> i know it
[06:45] <blekos__> i'm trying 2 switch 2 linux but microsoft always get on my way... grrr
[06:45] <rob138> is there anyway to change the automount of my ipod from /tmp/fubardsomething  to /media/ipod whenever i plug it in?
[06:45] <Howitzer> i'll try to hack the services!
[06:46] <Howitzer> with the initg stuff
[06:46] <blekos__> so any answers?
[06:46] <lakcaj> rob138, is there an entry in /etc/fstab for /tmp/fubardsomething?  Try changing it in there if there is.
[06:46] <linkd> amish: i think the msn servers dont like u.
[06:46] <redguy> blekos__: did you try googling?
[06:46] <redguy> blekos__: something in the lines of ipaq linux sync
[06:46] <rob138> okay
[06:46] <blekos__> yep nothing much 2 b honest
[06:47] <amish> i can access it in windows fine thought?
[06:47] <linkd> amish: thats all normal output except for when it randomly "disconnects" you which sometimes the msn servers will do if they think something is wrong
[06:47] <redguy> blekos__: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=05/08/17/1847227
[06:47] <linkd> amish: sure passwords and whatnot ok?
[06:47] <blekos__> i'm trying with synce etc but no luck
[06:47] <erg0t_> anyone?
[06:47] <jadaz87> hey guys i was wondering if anyone know why my ubuntu startup whould be hangning on configuring network cards
[06:47] <erg0t_> :(
[06:47] <redguy> blekos__: or was it windows mibile?
[06:47] <amish> Its fine. out of 20 times ive tried it like 3 connected
[06:47] <Howitzer> ehh
[06:47] <nickrud> akk: you got a response already in 31057
[06:47] <rob138> lakcaj, not just for hdc1, hdc5, proc, and hda
[06:47] <Howitzer> what is the diff between gksudo and sudo?
[06:48] <redguy> blekos__: hrm, is it windows mobile 2005?
[06:48] <_jason> Howitzer: gksudo is for gui apps
[06:48] <blekos__> yeap
[06:48] <katarot> ok this is exactly what i did
[06:48] <akk> nickrud: I am quite sure that I never intentionally installed it.
[06:48] <katarot> martin@martin:~$ iwconfig -a
[06:48] <katarot> -a        No such device
[06:48] <katarot> martin@martin:~$ iwconfig
[06:48] <katarot> lo        no wireless extensions.
[06:48] <katarot> eth0      no wireless extensions.
[06:48] <erg0t_> i cant use the internet on ubuntu
[06:48] <erg0t_> with the same config that i CAN use it on windows
[06:48] <kuja> ubotu: framebuffer
[06:48] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, kuja
[06:48] <erg0t_> :(
[06:48] <jadaz87> hey katarot
[06:48] <kuja> Hm..
[06:48] <linkd> amish: i dont know what to suggest :/
[06:48] <linkd> amish: sorry
[06:48] <akk> nickrud: and removing it caused something called "ubuntu-standard" to be removed.
[06:48] <amish> Oh ok
[06:48] <amish> no worried
[06:48] <amish> i got anothe rpgorblem though
[06:48] <jadaz87> katarot i got the wireless working :)
[06:49] <akk> (oh, that might have been because of ppp also being removed, though)
[06:49] <rob138> is there anyway to change the automount of my ipod from /tmp/fubardsomething  to /media/ipod whenever i plug it in?  (there is no entry in fstab for it)
[06:49] <akk> Maybe wvdial was what pulled it in.
[06:49] <katarot> what happened
[06:50] <lcore> Can sb please paste me his/hers output of " ls -l /usr/lib/libesd* ".
[06:50] <amish> I did an update and i go tthis error http://pastebin.com/603795
[06:50] <akk> rob138: Try poking around in /etc/udev. There might be a rule there you can change.
[06:50] <katarot> i pasted  something and it disconnected mee
[06:50] <redguy> blekos__: well, it seems that this version might not be supported
[06:50] <nickrud> akk: it wasn't on my dapper, I had to load it.  apt-cache rdepends resolvconf, one of those may have pulled it in.
[06:51] <balay> how can i see wich gcc version compiled the kernel of the system , without /proc ?
[06:51] <linkd> amish: ok its just looking for repos that it cant find (i.e. the ones on the CD) either: insert the cd, or u can comment it out from the /etc/apt/source.list file (it should be near the top)
[06:51] <akk> nickrud: Anyway, a previous commenter to the bug doesn't have resolvconf installed, so that may not be what did the overwriting.
[06:51] <blekos__> apparently... and that what drives my crazy... i need to run windowns in order to use my PDA
[06:51] <katarot> did you guys see it what i pasted or will i have to paste it again
[06:51] <blekos__> is there any chance u know, if WINE can run activesync and outlook?
[06:51] <nickrud> akk: like I said, resolvconf was designed to remove those conflicts :)
[06:52] <akk> nickrud: Maybe some day when it's supported and documented, it will help. :-)
[06:53] <jadaz87> jadaz87 katarot i got the wireless working :)
[06:53] <redguy> blekos__: you can always install linux on it :-)
[06:53] <redguy> blekos__: http://familiar.handhelds.org/
[06:54] <blekos__> i'm afraid i cant, i thought of it, wm5 (windows mobile 5) are installed on ROM
[06:54] <redguy> hmm, not flash or eprom ?
[06:54] <amish> linkd: what one do i need to uncomment
[06:54] <amish> becaus emost of them are
[06:54] <redguy> blekos__: which model of ipaq do you have?
[06:55] <blekos__> hx2190
[06:55] <katarot> how did you do it jadaz87
[06:55] <[BreliC] > anyone here install a 2.6.14 or 2.6.15 kernel on Breezy?
[06:56] <blekos__> btw i found smg on the internet but i get an error-- device/ttyUSB0 not found
[06:56] <katarot> im still confused i think i have done it right
[06:56] <blekos__> do u know how i can have a dir /device/USB?
[06:57] <Howitzer> How do you check if you have any PCMIA devices?(What are these actually?)
[06:57] <frank23> Howitzer: devices that plug into laptop expansion port
[06:57] <ufo> Howitzer, you can try dmesg, lshw, lspci
[06:57] <Howitzer> okay
[06:57] <oskude> Howitzer, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCMCIA
[06:58] <nazgulwalker> how can i change my screen resolution
[06:58] <nazgulwalker> how can i change my screen resolution
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> PCMCIA - now known as 'pc-card'
[06:58] <redguy> blekos__: hmm, you propably should ask somebody who actually uses the program
[06:58] <redguy> !fixres
[06:58] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:58] <_jason> nazgulwalker: system > Prefs > screen resolution
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> nazgulwalker,  reconfigure your X server.
[06:58] <redguy> nazgulwalker: read the wiki link ubotu gave you
[06:59] <katarot> why everytime when i paste long things do i get disconnected
[06:59] <blekos__> ok redguy thnx
[06:59] <blekos__> for trying
[06:59] <amish> linkid: when you said comment it ou i looked at my sources.list file
[06:59] <amish> and all the def files ar euncommented anywyas
[06:59] <redguy> blekos__: sorry I couldn't be of more help
[06:59] <_jason> katarot: because you aren't supposed to paste long things, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[06:59] <nazgulwalker> in system -> prefs screen resolution it allows 1024 * 768
[06:59] <jadaz87> katarot: well start off with a fresh ndiswrapper with the broadcom install
[06:59] <blekos__> no worries :)
[06:59] <katarot> confused
[06:59] <_jason> nazgulwalker: then you have to do what ubotu told you about
[06:59] <jadaz87> katarot and when ou want to configure DO NOT use network configuration
[06:59] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell nazgulwalker about fixres
[07:00] <instabin> !xgl
[07:00] <linkd> amish: i meant just find the deb report which is ur CD and put a "#" in front of that line
[07:00] <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/
[07:00] <jadaz87> katarot network configuration i have found out does not work with broadcom/ndiswraper
[07:00] <gnomefreak> oops sorry i didnt know _jason already sent it to you
[07:00] <linkd> amish: not uncomment. _comment_
[07:00] <instabin> any way to get xgl on breezy
[07:00] <instabin> ?
[07:00] <gnomefreak> instabin: no
[07:00] <_jason> gnomefreak: no worries, I didn't actually
[07:00] <katarot> ohh what will i use
[07:00] <amish> oh ok
[07:00] <jadaz87> katarot when you want to configure go to ad application>internet>more programs>wifi radar
[07:01] <instabin> just ran the kororaa live cd looks beatuiful
[07:01] <jadaz87> katarot that works i am talking to you know on wireless
[07:01] <jadaz87> katarot just make sure ndiswrapper is working and everything and your system can see the wifi card
[07:01] <instabin> also im trying to setup breezy up on a lap top but cant find the wireless network manager
[07:02] <instabin> where is it located at?
[07:02] <katarot> what is the wifi card called
[07:02] <instabin> eth1
[07:02] <jadaz87> katarot and just use wifi radar to configure btw you are going to need to be on lan so ubuntu can install it
[07:02] <katarot> does it need internet
[07:03] <oxigen> flight 5 installer doesnt work here :/
[07:03] <jadaz87> katarot wlan0 shoudl be in the list when you do iwconfig at the terminal

it creates pdf's but i don't think it opens them
[07:08] <katarot> martin@martin:~$ iwconfig -a
[07:08] <katarot> -a        No such device
[07:08] <katarot> martin@martin:~$ iwconfig

So I try sudo apt-get -d install PACKAGE , and he say's that package is already install , and doesn't download it . I tryied to read more , but i can't find the right way . Doesn't anyone knows?

[07:12] <Xeonwales> does urpmq work on ubuntu?
[07:12] <marten71> i need some help i have been trying 5 times now and still it dont work
[07:12] <oskude> balay, then you have it allready on your hd
[07:12] <kbrooks> gnomefreak, package not found...
[07:12] <gnomefreak> balay: if the packages said already installed they are most likely downloaded onto your system you just have to find them
[07:12] <koczkodan> part #debian
[07:12] <HappyFool> balay: if it's already installed, maybe it's in /var/cache/apt/archives
[07:12] <koczkodan> sorry ;)
[07:12] <gnomefreak> kbrooks: after running dpkg right click panel and add it there
[07:12] <katarot> ok i pasted in paste bin
[07:12] <HappyFool> balay: or on the cd (if you installed from cd)
[07:12] <kbrooks> gnomefreak, i could have sworn "webboard" was in the repos
[07:13] <jadaz87> katarot now you have to post the link here ;)
[07:13] <gnomefreak> kbrooks: it is in multi i think
[07:13] <Xeonwales> does urpmq work with ububtu??
[07:13] <balay> happyfool: no , I  did apt-get clean .
[07:13] <kbrooks> gnomefreak, whereis webboard god damn it.
[07:13] <jadaz87> katarot so we can see it
[07:13] <redguy> balay: what about apt-get -d --reinstall PACAKGE ?
[07:13] <balay> because i just want to download the package
[07:13] <gnomefreak> kbrooks: its easier to get it from pastebin download the .deb and install it than add it to your panel
[07:13] <Xeonwales> is it easy to install things on ubuntu??
[07:13] <kbrooks> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe multiverse
[07:13] <kbrooks> deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe multiverse
[07:13] <kbrooks> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-updates universe multiverse
[07:14] <gnomefreak> Xeonwales: depending on what it is
[07:14] <Xeonwales> azureus
[07:14] <redguy> balay: darn that would be apt-get -d --reinstall install PACAKGE
[07:14] <Xeonwales> for example
[07:14] <kbrooks> gnomefreak, what .deb? from where?
[07:14] <marten71> anyone?
[07:14] <gnomefreak> not so easy iirc but hold on ill send you the instructions
[07:14] <locke> how do i do an update from the CLI?
[07:14] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Xeonwales about azureus
[07:14] <redguy> marten71: are you the one with the sony laptop?
[07:15] <jadaz87> katarot alright i will explain
[07:15] <gnomefreak> kbrooks: go to pastebin there is a .deb in the right hand colum
[07:15] <redguy> locke: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:15] <gnomefreak> locke: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:15] <redguy> ha! faster! :P
[07:15] <locke> thats what i thought... it's not working right...
[07:15] <Xeonwales> that hard....
[07:15] <Absenth> which configuration file do I edit to set the default gateway in breezy?
[07:15] <gnomefreak> locke: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:15] <marten71> no one here?
[07:15] <redguy> locke: explain "not working righ"
[07:16] <locke> well, when i type in sudo apt-get update it just says reading package list and pops me back to the command line
[07:16] <gnomefreak> locke: some packages (kerenl for one) are not able to be gotten using upgrade
[07:16] <redguy> Absenth: /etc/network/interfaces
[07:16] <jadaz87> katarot go to www.pastebin.com right? and in the big text box put what you want to show us
[07:16] <balay> redguy: yah but that way , I will install something , And i need to know how-to just download a package. Because i've installed Kubuntu-dapper-flight 5 on other drive , and it doesn't detect my ethernet-card module , so I need to install the module , and for that i need somethings like the gcc-version that compiled it that kernel , and that kernel headers. So i went back to my Ubuntu and i'm trying to download only the packages to install
[07:16] <balay>  them there .
[07:16] <Absenth> redguy, thanks.
[07:16] <gnomefreak> locke: run sudo apt-get update (let us know what happens)
[07:17] <locke> same thing
[07:17] <gimmulf> Anyone know how to make an .iso of a .bin?
[07:17] <redguy> balay: well, isn't the -d switch supposed to work so that you will download only?
[07:17] <katarot> what language plain text
[07:17] <locke> gnomefreak: it just says "reading package list... done" then pops me back to the CLI
[07:17] <jadaz87> katarot then click send
[07:17] <oskude> who asked about downloading debs, check this : http://lists.debian.org/deity/2004/12/msg00073.html
[07:17] <HappyFool> gimmulf: the bchunk package claims to do so
[07:17] <jadaz87> katarot then after the page updates go to the address bar and copy the link
[07:17] <oskude> would be: sudo aptitude download packaganame
[07:17] <prower> Hello :> I was just taking a look in adept, but I haven't seen it yet...anyone know if nvidia's cg toolkit is available as a package, or if there's any way to easily install it?
[07:17] <DRF> locke, after you've typed in sudo apt-get update you will also have to type in sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:17] <jadaz87> katarot and post it in here ;)
[07:17] <koczkodan> hi there! I can't get sound when playing flash animations. Why it doesn't work? there are no programs or servers blocking my audio device. I'm using alsa
[07:18] <gnomefreak> locke: can you paste your /etc/apt/sources.list file to pastebin please
[07:18] <locke> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[07:18] <katarot> http://rafb.net/paste/results/5Nqi9777.html
[07:18] <gnomefreak> locke: to open file to paste run sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:18] <katarot> can you read it
[07:19] <oskude> oh, and that aptitude download download there where you are when using the command
[07:19] <balay> redguy : well i just figure it out! :) Welll .. tks anyway :)
[07:19] <jadaz87> yes i can
[07:19] <rob138> how do i change the automount of my ipod from /tmp/disks-conf-sda2 to /media/ipod/ ,,, dapper doesnt recognize it as an ipod, as breezy did.
[07:19] <gnomefreak> rob138: #ubuntu+1 for dapper please
[07:19] <jadaz87> alright you need to go through the steps of installing ndiswrapper and the drivers again
[07:19] <rob138> okay sorry
[07:19] <katarot> is the sit0 right or wrong
[07:20] <jadaz87> no what is supposed to be in that list is wlan0

[07:21] <Stormx2> Hey everyone... What happened to the installer from the Live CD?
[07:22] <Stormx2> Did that ever happen?
[07:22] <kbrooks> Seveas?
[07:22] <kbrooks> Seveas, are you online?
[07:22] <kbrooks> Seveas, pm me pls.
[07:22] <allievo> Quick question: Would it be a bad idea to chown /var/www to my daily user account? It kind of bothers me that I can't edit my files as usual .)
[07:22] <allievo> :)*
[07:22] <GFDL> Storkme, what's wrong with the installer for the live cd
[07:23] <kbrooks> allievo, not a bad idea, but change User and Group.
[07:23] <oskude> allievo, you can do that or use a "public_html" in your home folder
[07:23] <Seveas> kbrooks, ?
[07:23] <kbrooks> Seveas, webboard package has a bug.
[07:23] <allievo> kbrooks, What do you mean exactly? (Newbie)
[07:23] <Storkme> GFDL, *cough*
[07:23] <gnomefreak> did you add it to our panel?
[07:23] <Seveas> kbrooks, about /usr/bin/webboard not working?
[07:24] <kbrooks> Seveas, when i start "webboard",  i get a exception.
[07:24] <locke> gnomefreak: i fixed it, thanks for the help though
[07:24] <GFDL> uh?
[07:24] <Storkme> GFDL, you highlighted me.
[07:24] <Seveas> kbrooks, you ned to add it to your panel
[07:24] <anna> does anybody know a beginners guide how to handle the terminal in ubuntu?
[07:24] <GFDL> Storkme, I didn't. I asked you a question
[07:24] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell anna about cli
[07:24] <allievo> oskude, Hm, yes, I would - if I could find the darned "DocumentRoot" setting, which I cannot (Even though other people seem to find it within /etc/apache2/apache2.conf)
[07:24] <Storkme> GFDL, why? i wasn't even active.
[07:25] <ron_> anna http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php
[07:25] <Storkme> GFDL, not only that, but i don't know OR care about your predicament.
[07:25] <GFDL> I confused your nick with Stormx2, my sincere apologies
[07:25] <anna> gnomefreak thank you very much!
[07:25] <oskude> allievo, if you do a folder "public_html" in your home folder you can acces it with "http://localhost/~yourusername/"
[07:25] <GFDL> Stormx2, what's wrong with the live cds?
[07:25] <anna> ron_ thx!!
[07:25] <gnomefreak> anna: yw
[07:26] <ron_> np :)
[07:26] <allievo> oskude, is that so... Thank you for your help! :)
[07:26] <Seveas> !tell Storkme about conduct
[07:26] <Stormx2> GFDL: I didn't think there was one haha
[07:26] <kbrooks> Seveas, whattsa he do
[07:27] <GFDL> oh!
[07:27] <kbrooks> Seveas, he sent 2 non offensive messages so far
[07:27] <thiago_> OI
[07:27] <Storkme> GFDL, no problem.
[07:27] <Seveas> kbrooks, being that assrtive when someone makes an honest mistake is really non-#ubuntu
[07:28] <suppaman> hi

[07:29] <instabin1> is there a way to turn ubuntu in to a media center
[07:29] <Seveas> aleitner, /lib/firmware
[07:29] <instabin1> i have a dual tv tuner card and want to have the same functionality as win media center
[07:29] <jadaz87> instabinl exactly i whould like to know the answer to this question aslo

[07:30] <oskude> instabin1, google knows many projects to make a "media center" linux ...
[07:30] <oskude> mythtv has even livecd nowadays...
[07:30] <instabin1> yes but want to use ubuntu woundering if there is any deb packaged progs
[07:30] <kbrooks> Seveas, you meant "not ubuntu".
[07:31] <Seveas> instabin1, there are .deb files for mythtv, check deb.thehunter.ws
[07:31] <kbrooks> :)
[07:31] <AltNick> mythtv! plenty of helpful ubuntu mythtv guides in the wiki
[07:31] <instabin1> in the ubuntu reposotory
[07:31] <Seveas> kbrooks, no, I mean not-#ubuntu - it's against the spirit of this channel
[07:31] <oRED> I have a notebook with athlon 64 e ati radeon xpress 200m igp, anybody got 3d accel working on it?
[07:31] <kbrooks> Seveas, what's the spirit?
[07:31] <Absenth> any idea why during an ubuntu install, after the first reboot, my system would hang at "* Starting hotplug sybsystem.... "
[07:32] <instabin1> sweet

[07:36] <engie> I just installed Dapper - and it's fantastic. I've never used an OS that felt so well integrated and.... easy. And shiny! Many thanks to all involved in its production!
[07:36] <instabin1> download the iso
[07:36] <allievo> oskude,  It seems as if your solution does not work. I cannot access "/home/username/public_html" by "http://localhost/~username/" :/
[07:36] <kbrooks> .......
[07:36] <LethalSword> ok
[07:36] <gnomefreak> engie: please talk about dapper in #ubuntu+1
[07:37] <instabin1> lethalsword boot from the instlaiton iso
[07:37] <engie> gnomefreak: Tah
[07:37] <LethalSword> how do i do that
[07:37] <oskude> allievo, wierd, works here. but i use apache1.3...
[07:37] <instabin1> you have to donwload the iso then burn the cd...
[07:37] <mohkohn> error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
[07:37] <ubotu> Ubuntu Package/File/Desc Search of 'ipcop' returned no results.
[07:37] <instabin1> boot the cd in a computer that has 2 network cards
[07:38] <allievo> oskude, ok, I don't
[07:38] <instabin1> ipcop is a linux distro
[07:38] <oskude> allievo, maybe its deactivated in apache2. try to find "public_html" in the configs
[07:38] <mohkohn> I get this error when I try mysqladmin -u root password db_user_password
[07:38] <allievo> oskude, ok
[07:38] <mohkohn> <Just installed with apt
[07:38] <gaggi> hello
[07:38] <instabin1> lethalsward
[07:38] <LethalSword> yea
[07:38] <instabin1> lethalsward you know ipcop is a linux distro right?
[07:38] <gnomefreak> instabin1: if he has a tar for it that makes it a package
[07:39] <oskude> allievo, btw. the folder(s) and file(s) have to be readably by user www-data
[07:39] <LethalSword> i thought ipcop was a firewall
[07:39] <gaggi> can anybody tell me how to get ati drivers running on dapper drake flight 5?
[07:39] <mohkohn> Anybody know much about mysql and ubuntu?
[07:39] <oskude> allievo, and folders need execute rights too
[07:39] <gnomefreak> gaggi: try at #ubuntu+1 for dapper please
[07:39] <allievo> oskude, how would I arrange that?
[07:39] <gaggi> ohh thanks ^^
[07:39] <LethalSword> so whats a god firewall then
[07:39] <instabin1> lethalsward its a linux firewall distro
[07:39] <gnomefreak> yw
[07:39] <oskude> allievo, man chmod
[07:39] <allievo> oskude, guess the execution right could be fixed by chmod
[07:40] <drcurl> hello
[07:40] <LethalSword> then what is a good firewall?
[07:40] <mirirendra> does anyone know if wine works good for playing world of warcraft? or if i have to buy something like cedega? :)
[07:40] <HappyFool> !firewall
[07:40] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
[07:40] <oskude> allievo, or in nautlis with right mouse click...
[07:40] <linkd> mohkohn: the probably is probably somewhere in the config, its looking for /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock. its likely that doesnt exist so u need to find out where it _does_ exist (if at all) and id probably symlink them together (thats what i did - saves me having to search all my configs)
[07:40] <LethalSword> ok
[07:40] <instabin1> lethalsword do you want something like symantec firewall for windows?
[07:41] <LethalSword> kinda
[07:41] <LethalSword> i mean like zone alaem
[07:41] <mohkohn> thanks linkd
[07:41] <erg0t_> hello, sorry for asking but im really lost
[07:41] <drcurl> Is anyone else noticing that desktop becomes less snappy when mono apps (banshee particulary) are running?
[07:41] <LethalSword> alarm**

[07:41] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.

[07:41] <erg0t_> i get this error msg

[07:41] <allievo> oskude, I'd rather try to learn how to do it with chmod :)
[07:41] <instabin1> LethalSword install firestarter
[07:41] <erg0t_> and it is _not_ unreachable, my ip is correct
[07:41] <LethalSword> k
[07:41] <erg0t_> the netmask is correct
[07:41] <oskude> allievo, karma +1 :)
[07:41] <erg0t_> i have no clue what could be wrong
[07:42] <MisterN> hi
[07:42] <mirirendra> frank23: ok, thanks :)
[07:42] <riaal> i just wrote a program startup script, now i want to execute it whit the arguments start when runlevel changes to 3.. how do i pull that of?
[07:42] <oskude> allievo, so you need a good newbie chmod tutorial ?
[07:43] <oskude> ubotu, tell oskude chmod
[07:43] <Chodder> Is there a guide to xfce4?  I installed xfce4 through apt-get but when I start it from kdm it loads but it's just the background nothing else, but if I startx manually it will load xfce4 and everything is fine
[07:44] <oskude> hmm, no good chmod tutorials around ?
[07:44] <Knorrie> oskude: man chmod?
[07:44] <oskude> man != newbie friendly..
[07:44] <LethalSword> what does this mean:
[07:44] <LethalSword> sudo nessus-adduser
[07:44] <LethalSword> oops
[07:44] <oskude> mostly ;=
[07:44] <LethalSword> i mean
[07:44] <LethalSword> Authentication (pass/cert) [pass] 
[07:45] <Chodder> You would be adding a user to sudoers I think but I dont use sudo, cant say for certain
[07:45] <oskude> allievo, try this http://catcode.com/teachmod/
[07:45] <Chodder> !xfce
[07:45] <ubotu> from memory, xfce is a lightweight Desktop Environment that uses GTK. to install, "sudo apt-get install xfce4" or "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". http://www.xfce.org/
[07:46] <erg0t_> and once its installed, how do you switch from Gnome to XFCE?
[07:46] <Chodder> it should be in gdm list
[07:46] <erg0t_> ok
[07:46] <Chodder> In my case it is in my kdm list
[07:46] <erg0t_> but first i need internet access, wich i dont have
[07:46] <erg0t_> :(
[07:46] <Chodder> But i cant get it going correctly
[07:46] <Chodder> I think it's a bug with dapper :/

[07:48] <stardash> hey
[07:48] <dReadMoRe> its possible to do in ubuntu live dvd creating a persistent home directory, as knoppix does!?
[07:48] <stardash> i am kinda new to the whole *nix thing and have a question
[07:48] <konrad_> s tu jaCYS POLACY ?
[07:48] <HappyFool> !pl
[07:48] <ubotu> Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu.pl
[07:48] <stardash> do i need binutils to use nvidia drivers
[07:49] <Chodder> binutils is part of basically all linux base systems
[07:49] <HappyFool> stardash: if you want to install them straight from nvidia, probably. i'd recommend using the ubuntu-packaged drivers
[07:49] <pppoe_dude> hi is there a way to group people by their status in gaim?
[07:49] <HappyFool> stardash: you'll need (at least) build-essential and linux-headers-386 (or similar) and, for ubuntu 5.10, gcc-3.4 too
[07:49] <stardash> do I get the drivers right from the unbntu site
[07:50] <HappyFool> stardash: that is easiest
[07:50] <dReadMoRe> its possible to do in ubuntu live dvd creating a persistent home directory, as knoppix does, without installing ubuntu!?
[07:50] <Chodder> !nvidia
[07:50] <ubotu> it has been said that nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[07:50] <HappyFool> !tell stardash about nvidia
[07:50] <HappyFool> oh
[07:50] <stardash> I have the newest unbntu installed
[07:50] <ljlolel> does anyone know how to get the srcltx package working in latex on ubuntu?
[07:50] <Chodder> stardash follow the gide in wiki
[07:50] <Chodder> guide*
[07:50] <stardash> Looking now
[07:50] <stardash> ty a lot
[07:51] <Chodder> not a problem
[07:51] <CarinArr> ljlolel, srcltx?
[07:51] <ljlolel> CarinArr, yea, for clicking in dvi, it says srcltx.sty not found, but the package zip has no .sty file!
[07:52] <Shigutso> in Terminal, what is the command to delete a whole directory, even if it has files inside?
[07:52] <HappyFool> ljlolel: did it have a .dtx (err, i think that's the extension) file ?
[07:52] <ljlolel> Shigutso, rm- f
[07:52] <ljlolel> Shigutso, rm -r i mean
[07:52] <WiFiTux> Anyone knows the file that needs to be edited to allow incoming DISPLAYS? xhost + is not doing it.
[07:52] <Chodder> rm -rf
[07:52] <Shigutso> thank you, ljlolel :D
[07:52] <ljlolel> HappyFool, yea, i ran latex on it, but it says srcltx.sty not found again
[07:53] <ljlolel> Hammer, Shigutso, in the readme, it says i need to copy srcltx.sty to the right directory.. but the file doesn't exist anywhere
[07:53] <Chodder> brb
[07:53] <Chodder> hopefully
[07:53] <Chodder> :)
[07:53] <ljlolel> Shigutso, you're welcome, use with care
[07:54] <stephen> hey, is updating from 4.10 to the latest OK?
[07:54] <CarinArr> stardash, if you have the packaged drivers installed already, make sure you COMPLETELY uninstall them before trying with the drivers off the nvidia website
[07:54] <ljlolel> stephen, i recommend installing 5.10 first
[07:54] <WiFiTux> Anyone knows the file that needs to be edited to allow incoming DISPLAYS? xhost + is not doing it.
[07:54] <dReadMoRe> its possible to do in ubuntu live dvd creating a persistent home directory, as knoppix does, without installing ubuntu!?
[07:54] <nickrud> stephen: no, dist-upgrading is only defined up to the next release
[07:54] <HappyFool> stephen: afaik no; you need to go 4.10 -> 5.04, then 5.04 -> 5.10
[07:54] <ljlolel> stephen, package dependencies can get weird
[07:54] <ljlolel> stephen, or, what happy fool says actually
[07:55] <stephen> ... is there a guide?
[07:55] <nickrud> !breezy
[07:55] <ubotu> The guide to upgrading to breezy (5.10) is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade
[07:55] <stephen> thank u
[07:55] <nickrud> stephen: the source changes on that page are the same, except s/breezy/dapper/
[07:56] <ljlolel> stephen, and hoary

[08:04] <void^> Kladden: gaim, kopete, amsn
[08:04] <dReadMoRe> its possible to do in ubuntu live dvd creating a persistent home directory, as knoppix does, without installing ubuntu!?
[08:04] <hellekin> hello humans :)
[08:04] <AltNick> nazgul, what os are you in?
[08:05] <hellekin> Can I upgrade my BreezyBadger to Thunderbird 1.5 without upgrading to DapperDrake?
[08:05] <nazgulwalker> os?
[08:05] <nazgulwalker> Altnick my perating system is ubuntu right now
[08:05] <AltNick> operating system? are you in ubuntu or windows?
[08:05] <hellekin> operating system obviously
[08:06] <AltNick> I have the same issue
[08:06] <hellekin> AltNick: you want to upgrade thunderbird?
[08:06] <nazgulwalker> how will we fix it?
[08:06] <Dantien> my firefox dont work after trying to upgrade to latest version. Can someone help me with that ?
[08:06] <Kladden> Someone who knows how I can innstal msn messenger on ubuntu??
[08:07] <nazgulwalker> Kladden you cant install msn messenger to ubuntu
[08:07] <AltNick> no, I'm using 1.5 right now
[08:07] <hellekin> Kladden via Wine maybe... Did you try it?
[08:07] <Kladden> wine?
[08:07] <B_166-ER-X> synaptic tells me i have a 'broken' package, and tells me to repair it, but yet i dont find how to use the 'Broken' filter ??
[08:07] <hellekin> AltNick: on a breezy?
[08:07] <Kladden> what is wine?
[08:07] <Dantien> Kladden, i think u must use Gaim
[08:07] <hellekin> Kladden: http://winehq.hu/
[08:07] <Kladden> and what is that?
[08:07] <nazgulwalker> Altnick you are using messenger 1.5 in ubuntu?
[08:08] <hellekin> Gaim is a multi-network IM
[08:08] <HappyFool> gaim is an alternative instant messaging client; it should already be installed (applications -> internet -> gaim)
[08:08] <HappyFool> i imagine getting msn messenger to work with wine will be *way* more painful that just using gaim
[08:08] <hellekin> but if you want camera support, you might want to try Gnomeeting or aMSN
[08:09] <nazgulwalker> someone know how can i fix my alt button ?????
[08:09] <hellekin> nazgulwalker: use glue ;)
[08:09] <Kladden> I want too go back too microsoft... Becose this is very dificult... DOnt bee abgry at mee people
[08:09] <Kladden> how doo I go back too microsoft?
[08:09] <Noahj> Go back to microsoft?
[08:09] <Noahj> Do you work there?
[08:09] <HappyFool> Kladden: did you uninstall windows?
[08:10] <Kladden> dont know :p
[08:10] <nazgulwalker> i think linux is quite difficult windows is better
[08:10] <HappyFool> Kladden: try rebooting; you should see a boot menu offering you a choice to boot into windows
[08:10] <stardash> ughh
[08:10] <Kladden> I just want my old pc back
[08:10] <stardash> i just suck
[08:10] <Noahj> I think linux is worth it...
[08:10] <hellekin> Kladden: reboot and see if windows is there. If it's not, then reinstall from cd
[08:10] <nazgulwalker> i couldn't fix my alt key in three days
[08:10] <Noahj> Kladden your PC is the same one as ever
[08:10] <stardash> what does no acceptable cc in path mean
[08:11] <HappyFool> stardash: means you need to install the 'build-essential' package
[08:11] <Noahj> stardash: I think you need gcc
[08:11] <stardash> gcc
[08:11] <stardash> ok
[08:11] <stardash> i'll google it
[08:11] <HappyFool> no, build-essential
[08:11] <HappyFool> aargh
[08:11] <Noahj> I think happyfool is right
[08:11] <nazgulwalker> are there someone can use alt key with ubuntu g-nome ???????????
[08:11] <hellekin> anyone using thunderbird 1.5 on breezy?
[08:11] <distant> can anyone help me get my dual monitors working with nvidia 6800 card

[08:12] <distant> k
[08:12] <distant> thanks
[08:12] <Kladden> oooh this is dificult.
[08:12] <nazgulwalker> so why don't u help !!
[08:12] <nazgulwalker> hmm.
[08:13] <mikeo1> how do i allow root logins?
[08:13] <mikeo1> this sudo stuff is BS
[08:13] <hellekin> nazgulwalker: because i don't have this problem
[08:13] <hellekin> so i don't know how to fix it
[08:13] <zorkerz> i like sudo alot once you get used to it
[08:13] <zorkerz> much nicer than haveing to longin as root all the time
[08:13] <mikeo1> yes but i cant get a root ftp connected
[08:13] <mikeo1> cause it ignores it
[08:13] <mikeo1> same with SCP
[08:14] <zorkerz> hmm
[08:14] <samuel_> #ubuntu.it
[08:14] <hellekin> mikeo1: root FTP ahahaha... It's silly
[08:14] <oskude> you can cahange to root user also with sudo ...
[08:14] <oskude> -a
[08:14] <andrewPCT> mikeo1: try sudo -s
[08:14] <_alien> could someone help with ubuntu 5.1 server? :)
[08:14] <mikeo1> i dont want to become root through a ssh or terminal window
[08:14] <hellekin> mikeo1: FTP sends the password in clear text over the net, so if you want to be hacked, go ahead
[08:14] <mikeo1> i want to login as root through an ftp
[08:14] <mikeo1> while then SCP
[08:14] <mikeo1> or ssh for that matter
[08:15] <mikeo1> ssh doesnt matter as much cause of sudo
[08:15] <dReadMoRe> its possible to do in ubuntu live dvd creating a persistent home directory, as knoppix does, without installing ubuntu!?
[08:15] <hellekin> mikeo1: look for sftp
[08:15] <mikeo1> but SCP would be nice
[08:15] <mikeo1> i have it installed and can connect through my username
[08:15] <_alien> when i instaleed ubuntu it didn't ask for root password what is it somekind default??
[08:15] <mikeo1> but the fact that ubuntu ignores all root connections is a problem
[08:15] <samuel_> do you speak italien
[08:15] <hellekin> mikeo1: then you also have sftp installed
[08:15] <hellekin> mikeo1: sftp is secure FTP. Exactly what you want
[08:15] <mikeo1> while how do i connect through it as root?
[08:15] <fromvega>  Hello! I have installed Subversion in Ubuntu using apt-get. I have created my repository etc but I do not know how to access the SVN system through a remote machine. Could you help-me? I'm trying to access using the SmartSVN windows client.
[08:15] <andrewPCT> _alien: by default the root account is disabled
[08:15] <samuel_> italien
[08:15] <samuel_> italiano
[08:15] <mikeo1> i use SCP its the same port as ssh
[08:15] <samuel_> speak italien
[08:15] <_alien> ok
[08:16] <hellekin> mikeo1: man sftp
[08:16] <mikeo1> but the problem is that i cant connect to it as root
[08:16] <fromvega> When we install subversion through apt-get, what else we need to configure?
[08:16] <hellekin> mikeo1: root cannot login on ubuntu
[08:16] <samuel_> server italiano
[08:16] <andrewPCT> mikeo1: because the root account is disabled
[08:16] <kootaphor> How do you  select application fonts (i.e. not theme fonts)  when not using gnome or KDE? (getting started with fluxbox here)
[08:16] <samuel_> qualcuno parla italiano
[08:16] <mikeo1> while how do i enable it?
[08:16] <mikeo1> or rename it to something else
[08:16] <mikeo1> like root1
[08:16] <oskude> fromvega, nothing (for clent)
[08:17] <hellekin> mikeo1: adduser toor
[08:17] <andrewPCT> mikeo1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[08:17] <hellekin> mikeo1: vipw
[08:17] <_alien> then how can i activate/install graphical environment kde/gnome on ubuntu server ? :)
[08:17] <hellekin> mikeo1: then change the uid of toor to 0
[08:17] <samuel_> it
[08:17] <andrewPCT> _alien: use sudo
[08:17] <fromvega> oskude: but and for server? I created a repository, now I want to access it from a remote machine in the lan.
[08:17] <HappyFool> !it
[08:17] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[08:17] <Koobi> would anyone happen to know how i can instal fixedsys font on my system? the monospace font on terminal is killing me :/
[08:17] <mikeo1> so can i change the uid of my username and give myself root access?
[08:17] <oskude> fromvega, never done a svn server, better try google or the softwares homepage..
[08:18] <hellekin> Koobi: man Xresources
[08:18] <Koobi> ok, thanks
[08:18] <hellekin> mikeo1: i just told you
[08:18] <mikeo1> so changing my uid to 0 will give my root access (y/n)?
[08:18] <nazgulwalker> where can i configure keyboard configures manually????
[08:18] <_alien> andrewPCT  what exactly is rhis command for launching? :)
[08:18] <hellekin> mikeo1: root privilege yes
[08:19] <Koobi> hellekin: apparently there's no entry for Xresources
[08:19] <mikeo1> ok thanks will do then
[08:19] <Dantien> Can i uninstall firefox and install it again ?
[08:19] <andrewPCT> _alien: if you want to run a program as root, type: sudo <command>
[08:19] <nazgulwalker> where can i configure keyboard configures manually????
[08:19] <_alien> i need a graphical environment :)
[08:20] <zorkerz> Dantien: you should be able to through apt-get
[08:20] <andrewPCT> _alien: are you on a fresh ubuntu install?
[08:20] <_alien> no
[08:20] <Jemt> Greets. I have just installed Wine and Steam (Counter-Strike) on a friends computer - unfortunately it dosn't run smoothly. It runs great for about 2-15 seconds and then freezes for several minutes, then resumes for 2-15 seconds and then freezes 2 minutes again. Does anyone know a solution?
[08:20] <HappyFool> _alien: application -> system tools -> run as diferent user
[08:20] <Dantien> zorkerz, so i just type apt-get in the terminal ?
[08:20] <mikeo1> YES IT WORKS
[08:20] <mikeo1> thanks a lot
[08:20] <hellekin> Koobi: edit .Xresources
[08:21] <_alien> but i have only command line its ubuntu server and i just need to launch graphical environment
[08:21] <_alien> :/
[08:21] <hellekin> Koobi: and put something like XTerm*Font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-15
[08:21] <_alien> there is some other os on my pc now i am in windows
[08:21] <hellekin> (corresponding to the font you want)
[08:21] <green_earz> Dantien: sudo aptitude update & aptitude reinstall package    or apt-get instead of aptitude
[08:21] <zorkerz> Dantien, its easier to do i through synaptics system-administration-synaptic package manager then just search for firefox
[08:21] <LeeJunFan> does the ubuntu kernel have nfs client support compiled in so I can netboot it?
[08:21] <andrewPCT> _alien: you could install the desktop environment: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:21] <hellekin> better: *font: ...
[08:21] <_alien> ok
[08:22] <_alien> wiil try
[08:22] <_alien> and come back ;)
[08:22] <Koobi> hellekin: thanks, but where would this .Xresources file be? it's not in my home dir. shall i create it?
[08:22] <_alien> tnx andrewPCT :)
[08:22] <hellekin> Koobi: yes no problem, it's just a configuration file.
[08:22] <existance> Could someone help me build Xvfb?
[08:22] <Dantien> zorkerz, ah... thanx... ill try to figure it out... sorry green_earz but i dont anderstod what u ment...
[08:22] <Koobi> great, thanks for the help :)
[08:23] <hellekin> Koobi: look at /etc/X11/Xresources/*
[08:23] <green_earz> Dantien: np
[08:23] <existance> Could someone help me build Xvfb?
[08:24] <Koobi> hellekin: and ls of that dir shows that it's empty but i'll go ahead and create that font you mentioned
[08:24] <Koobi> font == config file for X
[08:24] <zorkerz> Dantien, If your desktop is still same as default System is in the upper left hand corner next to places and Applications, sorry my explaining isent too hot
[08:24] <hellekin> Koobi: you can google .Xresources i guess you'll find examples
[08:25] <Koobi> ok, will do :)
[08:25] <ianw_> Is there info anywhere on using usermodelinux under ubuntu?
[08:25] <existance> Could someone help me build Xvfb?
[08:27] <Howitzer> How can i put the output of xdpyinfo into a txtfile?
[08:27] <nickrud> Howitzer: xdpyinfo > file
[08:27] <andrewPCT> Howitzer: xdpyinfo > nameoffile
[08:27] <Howitzer> ty!
[08:28] <frankg> What's the c++ ide of choice for ubuntu users
[08:28] <truz24> it would be devC++ if it had a linux port
[08:28] <truz24> but i used kdevelop instead
[08:28] <andre> hello me again
[08:28] <Howitzer> woo
[08:28] <Enthusiast78> frank23, KDevelop?
[08:28] <Howitzer> i LOVE Bloodshed
[08:28] <existance> Could someone help me build Xvfb?
[08:28] <Howitzer> dont know why
[08:29] <Howitzer> it was the editor i tried my tutorials in
[08:29] <Koobi> nothing can beat vim :D only its not really an IDE
[08:29] <truz24> if you want to get work done; kdevelop
[08:29] <Howitzer> what is it with this vim x emacs actually?
[08:29] <Howitzer> just use goddamn abiword
[08:29] <truz24> if you want to be a low level hacker in your own mind, use vim
[08:29] <existance> Could someone help me build Xvfb?
[08:29] <frankg> kdevelop is based on KDE I guess and ubuntu uses gnoime -- INTERESTING!!!
[08:29] <nickrud> vim is more admin, emacs is more programming, very roughly
[08:29] <Koobi> forget abiword, we should all just use MS Word ;)
[08:29] <andre> how do you swith to root because it never asked me for a root password just a user
[08:29] <michael> i'm back... what was the link to the CedegaCVS script?
[08:29] <truz24> frank, when you install kdevelop, it will get the libs needed to run it
[08:30] <Howitzer> rofl
[08:30] <nickrud> !tell andre about root
[08:30] <Koobi> i like kate though...because it has a little terminal window at the bottom...its like gedit + a terminal
[08:30] <nickrud> andre, you should have a link in that pm
[08:30] <Enthusiast78> andre, you don't.
[08:30] <michael> !tell michael about cedega

[08:30] <Enthusiast78> andre, just use 'sudo' for admin tasks
[08:30] <frankg> thanks
[08:30] <truz24> np
[08:30] <andre> sudo?
[08:31] <andre> like sudo root
[08:31] <Enthusiast78> andre, yes, like in 'sudo aptitude install xgalaga'
[08:31] <nickrud> andre: and when you truly need a shell, sudo -i
[08:31] <andre> ok
[08:31] <andre>  sorry im a complete newbie
[08:31] <Koobi> is this channel meant to be a help-only channel? is there another channel for just general ubuntu chat? or does this channel serve both purposes?>
[08:31] <andre> frustrated with xp
[08:32] <michael> anybody know the link to get the Cedega CVS install script?
[08:32] <nickrud> Koobi: #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:32] <Enthusiast78> andre, no problem, that's a very common question among new ubuntu users. ;)
[08:32] <Koobi> sweet, thanks
[08:32] <ubuntu> what is the command for isntalling .deb files
[08:32] <metalhedd> dpkg -i debfile
[08:32] <HymnToLife> with sudo
[08:33] <ubuntu> thnx
[08:33] <hellekin> bye people
[08:33] <mikeo1> yes finally finished with sudo

[08:33] <frankg> DOn't see kdevelop on the ISO -- HOw do I install it?
[08:33] <DjDarkman> hy ,during boot,i get an error during the network configuration and i cant access the internet from there ,the strange is ,that it always ran and i never had problems with it ,i have cable internet and it is configured via dhcp ,can someone help me?
[08:33] <ubuntu> when doing sudo dpkg is it best to put the .deb file in home folder?
[08:34] <andre> i cant get my dvd to play it gives me no permissions
[08:34] <existance> Could someone help me with xvfb?
[08:34] <Dantien> hmm... firefox still dont work... :(
[08:34] <nickrud> ubuntu: a home folder is a good place to put anything; you may want a subdir to drop any odd debs you keep around
[08:34] <zorkerz> Dantien, figured out how to reinstall?
[08:34] <michael> nobody has that link for me :'(
[08:34] <oskude> ubuntu, it doesnt matter from where you install the deb
[08:34] <ompaul> mikeo1, so if you help anyone make sure you tell them sudo in this channel
[08:35] <Ivaldi> Is there some command that kills x and all its applications?
[08:35] <Enthusiast78> Talking about sudo... What if I wanted to do something like: 'wget http://large.file.that.will.take.almost.forever && exec halt'? sudo would have already lost the grace time and halt would fail without privileges... Can I specify a whole command line to be taken care by sudo at once?
[08:35] <ubuntu> when i do sudo dpkg how does it know were to look file the file to be d/l
[08:35] <ubuntu> installed
[08:35] <Dantien> zorkerz, yes i got it... and i installed it again.. firefox still not working...
[08:35] <nickrud> Ivaldi: ctl-alt-backspace , or sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[08:35] <zorkerz> Dantien, how is it not working?
[08:35] <Klohunt> what tool can I use to burn ISO
[08:35] <stardash> how do you get to straight command line in ubuntu
[08:36] <Enthusiast78> michael, I used to have it, but since Cedega DOESN'T WORK (LOL) I can't remember it!
[08:36] <nickrud> Klohunt: right click the iso in your file manager, and choose burn to disk
[08:36] <Jimmey__> GnomeBaker, K3B for .iso burning
[08:36] <Ivaldi> nickrud: well it didnt respond to any of those commands :/. and also, a key on my keyboard stopped functioning since the reboot
[08:36] <Klohunt> Applications, acesories, terminal
[08:36] <Klohunt> nickrud, thanks
[08:36] <stardash> not windowed
[08:36] <Dantien> i click on the firefox icon and i see a program line in the botom. then it just wanish after a second
[08:36] <stardash> I want to get out of gui
[08:36] <allievo> In the network settings dialogue, I am allowed to enter a WEP-key for my WLAN, but I only have the choices ASCII or Hexadecimal to input them with. Is there no way to input my WEP-key in decimal (Normal  letters)? (Such as in a file, or in a terminal)
[08:36] <Klohunt> at the splash screen
[08:36] <Ivaldi> xev cant even detect the key
[08:36] <nickrud> Ivaldi: keyboard problems, I don't know much about that.
[08:36] <zim> what graphics card is the best under kubuntu-dapper
[08:36] <Ivaldi> okay, thanks anyway
[08:36] <Klohunt> stardash, choose sessions next time at the login screen
[08:37] <oskude> allievo, ASCII = "normal letters"
[08:37] <nickrud> stardash: you can remove the link /etc/rc2.d/S13gdm ; that will prevent X from starting, and drop you into a virtual console on bootup
[08:37] <zorkerz> Dantien, sorry im not going to be any help you could check www.ubuntuforums.org thats where ive gotten all my problems answered
[08:37] <zim> hi all just need some advice i am about to buy a graphics card for my new pc but need to know what will be the most hassle free
[08:38] <nickrud> stardash: to get it back to normal, sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults
[08:38] <DjDarkman> during boot,i get an error during the network configuration and i cant access the internet from there ,the strange is ,that it always ran and i never had problems with it ,i have cable internet and it is configured via dhcp ,can someone help me?
[08:38] <allievo> oskude, then why does it seem as if I'm entering an invalid key :/
[08:38] <marten71> hello
[08:38] <Enthusiast78> stardash, You can also install the 'rcconf' package so you don't have to struggle with rc files directly. ;)
[08:38] <zorkerz> Dantien, but u need to use a different browser or other computer
[08:38] <oskude> allievo, dunno, but maybe an error message knows...
[08:38] <allievo> oskude, would be good if I had one
[08:38] <marten71> anyone knows how to install a wireless card
[08:38] <nickrud> zim: currently nvidia seems best supported (I hear far fewer complaints about them than ati)
[08:38] <ompaul> !tell marten71 about wireless
[08:38] <andrewPCT> marten71: what wireless card?
[08:38] <zim> ty
[08:39] <Dantien> zorkerz, yes i myst...hehe... going to be some houers... :)
[08:39] <marten71> i am on a laptop and haveing a belkin card
[08:39] <ompaul> marten71, read the message from the bot
[08:39] <marten71> ok
[08:39] <andre> so unlike other linux os you dont get a root desktop
[08:39] <ompaul> marten71, when your done then you will have "better" questions :)
[08:39] <zim> any one in particular
[08:39] <existance> Can anyone help me working with Xvfb?
[08:39] <andrewPCT> andre: you don't want one
[08:39] <nickrud> andre: it's there, it's just that login is disabled.
[08:39] <allievo> oskude, I have been reading a lot about this, and ubuntu.com said that it won't report if I input an invalid key, but rather query the dhcp server for  information, and wait for it to time out (Which is why it takes some time to activate the card, but it won't work afterwards of course)
[08:39] <frankg> Is it easy to install Kdevelop?
[08:40] <andre> how do you inable it or do i want to anyone
[08:40] <oskude> allievo, sry i dont use any wireless (and the last time i tested was like years ago...)
[08:40] <zim> nickrud any one in particular
[08:40] <nickrud> I use a 5200, it's old, slow, & cheap :)
[08:41] <metalhedd> frank23, sudo apt-get install kdevelop
[08:41] <zim> how is openGL on it
[08:41] <frankg> I'll try again - problem last time
[08:41] <Enthusiast78> nickrud, Is the 5200 really too slow? I'm thinking about buying one!
[08:41] <Enthusiast78> nickrud, (because it's cheap)
[08:41] <ompaul> frankg, you need to install universe repositiories and then install "kdevelop3" (ifyou need more info on repos let me know)
[08:41] <nickrud> Enthusiast78: I don't play games much, but it seems to work nicely with xgl so far
[08:41] <zim> how is openGL on it
[08:42] <existance> Can anyone help me working with Xvfb?
[08:42] <ompaul> metalhedd, it is kdevelop3
[08:42] <oskude> !helpme
[08:42] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[08:42] <Drac[Server] > Where is the xorg log located?
[08:42] <andre> where do i downloads great ubotunto books to teach me
[08:42] <metalhedd> ompaul, close enough :)
[08:42] <nickrud> Enthusiast78: I bought it just to play with xgl, as a matter of fact
[08:42] <allievo> oskude, ok, well thank you anyhow
[08:42] <GFDL> it is possible to ignore any authorization request in gaim?
[08:42] <Enthusiast78> nickrud, That's ok, I only need it to run glxgears properly... LOL!
[08:42] <frankg> ompaul: i need more help with repositories
[08:42] <stardash> alright, i booted into the virtual console and it said x was still running
[08:42] <philc> who is the top corporate donor to OSS? is it sun?
[08:42] <GFDL> I am being spammed through icq :(
[08:43] <nickrud> andre: the books currently being written haven't come out yet
[08:43] <ompaul> !tell frankg about universe
[08:43] <oskude> Drac[Server] , /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:43] <Drac[Server] > Thanks, oskude
[08:43] <Enthusiast78> philc, I guess it's Mark Shuttleworth, nowadays!
[08:43] <ompaul> frankg, read the note from the bot, if the url needs more assistance let us know
[08:43] <andre> ok but would the debain how too work since its the same platform
[08:43] <existance> Can anyone help me working with Xvfb?
[08:44] <truz24> frankg, once you update your repos, just apt-get install kdevelop
[08:44] <ompaul> truz24, its kdevelop3
[08:44] <nickrud> andre: on the guts of the os, perfectly. The higher level you get, the more it diverges
[08:44] <oskude> existance, how are we supposed to answer on that ? whats the ... problem ?
[08:44] <manu> hola a todos
[08:45] <existance> oskude, if you have knowledge about xvfb, then you say something..
[08:45] <truz24> my mistake, thanks
[08:45] <ompaul> !es
[08:45] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[08:45] <robinl1> me weird
[08:45] <existance> oskude, I can't get it to work.
[08:45] <oskude> existance, i dont even know what it is. but how ist some one supposed to help if they dont know whats wrong...
[08:46] <DjDarkman> i updateted my dhcp and my network doesnt work ,what should i do?
[08:46] <mivecz> how i install  kde in ubuntu
[08:46] <ldkpit> hi djdarkman
[08:46] <DjDarkman> hi ldkpit
[08:46] <existance> oskude, obviously not that many people know about it, so I don't want to type a huge long message where no one will know the answer.  My question is pretty simple.  So if they have ever gotten xvfb working they could help me.
[08:46] <ompaul> mivecz, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[08:46] <ldkpit> did you ping your server?
[08:47] <andre> ok thanks nickrud
[08:47] <DjDarkman> ldkpit, you mean the name serveer?
[08:47] <DjDarkman> or any other?
[08:47] <ompaul> !broken
[08:47] <ubotu> ompaul: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:47] <s|k> how does one defrag a computer in linux?
[08:47] <_jason> s|k: one has no need to
[08:47] <stephen> Hi
[08:47] <ldkpit> you need a server or gateway to make DHCP
[08:47] <stephen> Does people buy Crossover?
[08:47] <s|k> that link ubotu gives is pretty much worthless, should point to the ubuntu forums search tbh
[08:48] <existance> Could someone help me set Xvfb up?
[08:48] <tristanmike> s|k, one doesn't need to :P
[08:48] <s|k> why not?
[08:48] <stephen> Warez :(
[08:48] <andre> so this os is the perfect os to learn linux from basic to serious linux programming right
[08:48] <DjDarkman> ldkpit, i dont need nothing ,the it configures all by itself
[08:48] <tristanmike> s|k, because it's not windows
[08:48] <ompaul> !ubotu doesn't work
[08:48] <ubotu> doesn't work is, like, something you should never say.  Be more specific.
[08:48] <DjDarkman> and it ran before the update
[08:48] <stephen> Adobe Premiere in UBUNTU = how?
[08:48] <s|k> ande, yes
[08:48] <ufo> stephen, install windows
[08:48] <andre> cool thanks
[08:48] <stephen> NO
[08:48] <truz24> lol
[08:48] <stephen> I WILL NOT :)
[08:49] <truz24> stephen, install vmware, then install windows
[08:49] <s|k> !windows
[08:49] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, s|k
[08:49] <ldkpit> the it? who is the IT?
[08:49] <tristanmike> s|k, basically windows stores it files broken up, linux stores the files in one continuous line (so to speak) if I recall correctly
[08:49] <s|k> :/
[08:49] <stephen> lol vmware..
[08:49] <stephen> how about crossover
[08:49] <NsOmNiAc> I don't think Premiere would peform well even with vmware or wine
[08:49] <andre> what is vmware
[08:49] <NsOmNiAc> it's to platform dependent
[08:49] <s|k> tristanmike: oh
[08:49] <madewokherd> I'd try wine first
[08:49] <fizban> stephen I think vmware is the solution not crossover
[08:49] <truz24> wine is sketchy at best
[08:49] <truz24> vmware always works perfectly for me
[08:49] <stephen> VMWARE is the solution :P
[08:49] <stephen> what is it doing?
[08:49] <tristanmike> s|k, and when you access the file, it puts it together again, but when you save it, it breaks it up again, and wont store the pieces in the same places, thus the fragmentation
[08:49] <madewokherd> and then make sure crossover supports it (and it's worth paying for) before buying it
[08:49] <stephen> What it does?
[08:50] <Protocol1> so has it been confirmed yet if daper drake is going to be released on April 20th?
[08:50] <zim> have you all seen this ??? /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat
[08:50] <Protocol1> dapper*
[08:50] <NsOmNiAc> I tried After Effects on VMWare and Wine and it just never worked out
[08:50] <stephen> is it basically installing a virtual windows?
[08:50] <fizban> stephen it makes you box working asd an other box
[08:50] <_jason> ubotu: tell zim about installerbug
[08:50] <Dantien> are there more then firefox webbrowser in ubuntu 5.10 ?
[08:50] <stephen> fiz this is notebook but anyhow, it makes a "windows" in a "linux"?
[08:50] <oskude> existance, have you tried the examples from the man page ?
[08:50] <NRG88> hi, using breezy, a friend has updated, new packages of dhcp had been downloaded, and now, after a reboot, can't use the network
[08:50] <NRG88> anyone?
[08:51] <_jason> Dantien: yes, epiphany, galleon, mozilla browser that I can think of
[08:51] <fizban> steph so you can have 2 os working toghter
[08:51] <existance> oskude, yes, but I
[08:51] <ompaul> Dantien, on the command line apt-cache search browser
[08:51] <fizban> No, it virtualizes your hw
[08:51] <existance> oskude, yes, but I'm not sure if I've actually built xvfb yet
[08:51] <stephen> 2 os working together.. So no dual booting
[08:51] <zim> have you all seen this ??? /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat it contains the password to the first su from the insterlation and is world readable
[08:51] <existance> oskude, the direction say to change site.def and remake.  But I don't know what to "remake"
[08:51] <tristanmike> s|k, does that make sense ?
[08:51] <fizban> Steph yes, no dual boot
[08:51] <ompaul> zim, have you updated?
[08:51] <stephen> lol cool!
[08:51] <andrewPCT> zim: apt-get update
[08:51] <stephen> do I have 2 buy?
[08:52] <fizban> Steph it's quite expensive but it's a good sw
[08:52] <oskude> existance,  isnt apt-get install enough ?
[08:52] <zim> no just chmod 0400 it
[08:52] <ompaul> zim, sudo apt-get update&& sudo apt-get upgrade <<<------- that is the command
[08:52] <stephen> ok i gonna go google :)
[08:52] <fizban> steph Do the right thing
[08:52] <existance> oskude, I used synaptic, but it doesn't work when I try to make a terminal on the virtual X display
[08:52] <caglar_> which email notifier for the notification area do you use?
[08:52] <caglar_> it should support gmail and normal pop3 accounts
[08:52] <stephen> do the right thing is something I can't do right now
[08:52] <stephen> No money
[08:53] <zim> have apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade as a root cron
[08:53] <ompaul> stephen, resist temptation use
[08:53] <fizban> steph USe the evaluation copy
[08:53] <ompaul> zim, sudo apt-get in both cases
[08:53] <frankg> ompaul the instruction are for older version of Ubuntu -- I have the latest
[08:53] <zim> not if its a root cron
[08:53] <stephen> ok do i need to go this crazy though?
[08:53] <ompaul> frankg, the concept is the same
[08:53] <stephen> isn't crossover going to run adobe fine?
[08:53] <nickrud> caglar_: mail-notification supports both
[08:54] <ompaul> stephen, perhaps ask crossover
[08:54] <madewokherd> find out if crossover supports it
[08:54] <stephen> ok
[08:54] <Dantien> hehe... i cant find the command line.... :/
[08:54] <joonas__> hey
[08:54] <frankg> ompaul - change section fieeld to say " universe multiverse"
[08:54] <stephen> What do I need to buy (vmware workstation)?
[08:54] <madewokherd> if they don't, there's a very good chance it won't work
[08:54] <joonas__> i'm very new ubuntu user so can someone help men
[08:54] <joonas__> me*
[08:54] <nickrud> frankg: yes, on lines 19 & 20
[08:54] <stephen> SURE
[08:54] <ompaul> !anyone
[08:54] <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>
[08:54] <stephen> what u need joo
[08:54] <joonas__> i can't installa any programs to ubuntu
[08:54] <oskude> existance, i just installed "xvfb" and there seems to be only a "xvfb-run" command, try that
[08:54] <fizban> step, Yes workstation works like a champ
[08:54] <stephen> ok
[08:54] <stephen> joo
[08:54] <ompaul> stephen, don't use captials
[08:55] <stephen> bah i can't help I'm noob 2
[08:55] <stephen> lol
[08:55] <stephen> ompaul ok sorry gee man sorrry
[08:55] <existance> oskude, check in /usr/X11R6/bin
[08:55] <FlannelKing> joonas__: why can't you install anything?
[08:55] <frankg> nickrud: are you referring to a file?
[08:55] <fizban> Have to go, bye
[08:55] <Dantien> where is the command line ?
[08:55] <joonas__> friend said that use wine thats kind of a win emulator or something:S
[08:55] <ompaul> !tell stephen about CoC
[08:55] <nickrud> frankg: yes, you're doing this in synaptic (shoulda asked)
[08:55] <ompaul> !tell stephen about IRCRules
[08:55] <existance> oskude, that is the command referred to in all the examples I've found on the internet
[08:55] <madewokherd> !tell madewokherd about CoC
[08:55] <stephen> Thanks!
[08:55] <stephen> Code of conduct
[08:56] <metalhedd> Dantien, un the applications menu under 'terminal' ;)
[08:56] <stephen> :)
[08:56] <oskude> existance, xvfb-run seems to do something...
[08:56] <frankg> nickrud: yes synaptic
[08:56] <existance> oskude, yes, but you have to execute a command with it, and I'm not sure what command to give it :/
[08:56] <zim> last chance i am on the phone to my supplyer what nvidia card is the best under ubuntu
[08:56] <metalhedd> Zim they all use the same driver.
[08:56] <FlannelKing> joonas__: not an emulator, but yeah, you can run some win stuff on it.  What you having trouble with?
[08:56] <nickrud> frankg: arg. I don't know synaptic well, and my sources are totally non standard so I can't walk you thru it that way.
[08:56] <madewokherd> stephen: if you can't afford vmware and need to run windows in linux, you can use qemu, which is free
[08:57] <zim> kewl so one is as good as another
[08:57] <madewokherd> I have no idea how it compares
[08:57] <madewokherd> but I think it's slower
[08:57] <michael> I'm on a school network. I was priveledged enough to be able to install Ubuntu on a computer, but it needs to have a Network ID in order for me to access files, how do I add it to our network?
[08:57] <oskude> existance, try "xterm" or what ever. i dont even know what that software (exactly) is supposed to do, so...
[08:57] <Dantien> metalhedd, found it :) hehe
[08:57] <katarot> jadaz87 sorry i took so long had to install ubuntu again
[08:57] <nickrud> frankg: if you'll post your file, /etc/apt/sources.list to a paste bin, I'll look it over for you if you like.
[08:57] <existance> oskude, xvfb is a virtual X server.  I'm using it so i can run a program that requires X in the background on a server
[08:58] <katarot> this is what i got what iam i doing wrong http://rafb.net/paste/results/EA7nSN65.html
[08:58] <stardash> I am still having a problem, all I need to do not is stop x from running, is there a comman d to do this?
sorry did not help to much i cant find the right driver it looks like all are for win
[08:58] <oskude> existance, then use the x program you have to run as the program with xvfb-run (man has examples too)
[08:58] <joonas__> when i install packages this don't install all of them so then the programm don't work
[08:58] <mindamp> i keep having a problem trying to start clamav-freshclam/clamav-daemon... log_daemon_msg cannot be found...
[08:58] <dustin_> hi
[08:58] <mindamp> i have deduced that it is lsb-base...
[08:59] <mindamp> how do i go about fixing this?
[08:59] <FlannelKing> joonas__: packages through synaptic?
[08:59] <dustin_> im a complete linux n00b
[08:59] <V4Vendetta> katarot, try setting the file to 777
[08:59] <joonas__> yes
[08:59] <dustin_> cans omeone explain to me what i do with this .deb file?
[08:59] <ompaul> !tell marten71 about ndiswrapper
[08:59] <ompaul> marten71, that should help
[08:59] <mindamp> dustin_... a .deb file is a debian package
[08:59] <mindamp> you can install it
[08:59] <andre> dvd players wont read the movies what do i do
[08:59] <mindamp> andre... your in the wrong channel
[08:59] <dustin_> well where does it go once i installed it?
[08:59] <FlannelKing> joonas__: Synaptic should install everything that's required, unless you tell it not to.
[08:59] <mindamp> dustin_... whereever you tell it to go
[08:59] <dustin_> i ran the  deb view as root and instaled but where is it now?
[09:00] <nickrud> katarot: you've run into a wierd part of sudo, you probably want to run that script as sudo, not use sudo inside the script
[09:00] <joonas__> but it says error or something like that
[09:00] <ompaul> !tell andre about restricted formats
[09:00] <mindamp> wherever it decided to install it
[09:00] <dustin_> lol
[09:00] <ompaul> andre, have a look at that factoid it might be useful :)
[09:00] <andre> ok
[09:00] <mindamp> dustin_ what package?
[09:00] <dustin_> uuh aflight sim
[09:00] <mindamp> anyone know anything about the lsb-base init bug?
[09:00] <FlannelKing> joonas__: which error?
[09:00] <mindamp> see my post above
[09:00] <dustin_> acm_5.0-17_i386.deb
[09:01] <mindamp> dustin_ run acm
[09:01] <nickrud> katarot: :)
[09:01] <joonas__> there reads only failed
[09:01] <oskude> existance, do you know how to connect to that xserver ?
[09:01] <mindamp> or use locate
[09:01] <mindamp> i keep having a problem trying to start clamav-freshclam/clamav-daemon... log_daemon_msg cannot be found...
[09:01] <mindamp> i have deduced that it is lsb-base...
[09:01] <katarot> nickrud  i dont get what your saying
[09:01] <existance> oskude, I get "Xlib: connection to "1:0" refused by server"
[09:01] <nickrud> katarot: put those commands in a file, do chmod u+x file, then sudo file
[09:01] <dustin_> how do i run it?
[09:01] <dustin_> as i said im a big noob
[09:01] <joonas__> thats the url i try to download http://wine.sourceforge.net binary/
[09:01] <existance> oskude, what do you mean by connect
[09:01] <dustin_> and i have no idea where it is
[09:01] <mindamp> dustin_ prolly with acm
[09:01] <mindamp> from the console
[09:02] <Morrowyn> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=36099539665548298&q=microsoft+ipod
[09:02] <katarot> ohhh im really confused now lol
[09:02] <oskude> existance, as i read it, xvfb is only the server, you need also a client to connect to it, not ?
[09:02] <joonas__> it has downloaded about 10 files but there is still 4 left and without that the program won't work
[09:02] <existance> oskude, it runs in the background, there are various methods of getting the virtual desktop display if you want to
[09:03] <FlannelKing> joonas__: so, did you lose your network connection?  Try installing them again.
[09:03] <katarot> emm i was looking about on ubuntu and i say a thing called remote assistance
[09:03] <existance> oskude, I don't want to connect to it.  I want to run a program on it that requires a X server but without the display
[09:03] <katarot> if i enanbled that could you help me
[09:03] <joonas__> no i didn't
[09:03] <Howitzer> How do i manually add fonts i have in a directory?
[09:03] <oskude> existance, try: xvfb-run --auto-servernum --server-num=1 NAMEOFTHEPROGRAM
[09:03] <dustin_> aaah im so confused
[09:04] <dustin_> id ont get what i do with the deb file
[09:04] <existance> oskude, I did that, and got that error I said earlier
[09:04] <dustin_> can someone explain?
[09:04] <existance> oskude, did you get an error?
[09:04] <mindamp> anyone?
[09:04] <nickrud> katarot: http://rafb.net/paste/results/DfQKZd92.html <-- put that in a file in your home dir first
[09:04] <Howitzer> The Gnome help guide says i should go to fonts:/// but it wont let me copy anything?
[09:04] <Jimmey__> I've got 992MB of RAM, how do I get at the 12MB that Ubuntu wont see?
[09:04] <joonas__> i have tried to do that about 10 times
[09:04] <michael> Howitzer, are you root or sudo?
[09:04] <oskude> existance, with "xvfb-run --auto-servernum --server-num=1 xlogo" i get "Warning: Cannot convert string "xlogo32" to type Pixmap" but xvfb is still tunning
[09:04] <Howitzer> ehh
[09:05] <Howitzer> sudo
[09:05] <dabear> does anyone know what firefox' plugins dir is?
[09:05] <dustin_> when i oepn the .deb, it opens in archive manager
[09:05] <Howitzer> i did sudo nautilus --no-desktop
[09:05] <dustin_> how do i install it from there?
[09:05] <katarot> ok once i have done that what do i do
[09:05] <Howitzer> dustin_, type 'sudo dpkg -i xxxxxx.deb' in a terminal in the working dir
[09:05] <Dantien> dabear, i guess its where the plugins are
[09:05] <existance> oskude, what is your $DISPLAY variable contain?
[09:05] <existance> does rather
[09:05] <Howitzer> dabear, the plugins are in a weird format
[09:06] <Howitzer> you can't tell what plugin is what
[09:06] <oskude> existance, :0.0
[09:06] <existance> oskude, geh, mine too.
[09:06] <Howitzer> i suggest you just copy all the plugin folders
[09:06] <oskude> existance, http://pastebin.com/604053
[09:06] <dabear> Dantien, Howdy125 I just need to know the path to the plugins dir..
That's halarious, i love the system req's
[09:07] <dustin_> "dpkg: need an action option"
[09:07] <Jimmey__> -i
[09:07] <Dantien> when i did the how to upgrade to newest firefox i was in that plugins dir...
[09:07] <existance> oskude, so the xvfb-run command made that xvfb server right?
[09:07] <Jimmey__> sudo dpkg -i
[09:07] <oskude> existance, yup
[09:07] <katarot> on
[09:07] <stewski> anyone know how to get totem using gstreamer playing dvds
[09:08] <oskude> existance, forgot to copy the xlogo process, but its there
[09:08] <stewski> in dapper
[09:08] <darkraven> im using dapper drake with xgl, why does my x-server change in different points in time to the text-mode?
[09:08] <dustin_> ok i installed it but now what?
[09:08] <existance> oskude, http://pastebin.com/604064
[09:08] <Howitzer> michael117, i went to root but it still wont copy
[09:08] <dustin_> i dont see it anywhere
[09:08] <dustin_> oh man im confused
[09:08] <dustin_> haha
[09:08] <Jhair> stewski: I would use mplayer instead, or totem-xine
[09:08] <katarot> nickrud: will i put that in a text file
[09:08] <stewski> darn I was hoping ubuntu/gnome had improved totem
[09:08] <Dantien> how do i start mozilla after i have installed it with synaptic ?
[09:09] <oskude> existance, do you got "xauth" installed ?
[09:09] <Howitzer> (i'm doing a manual copy in nautilus since cp doesn't recognize the fonts:/// )
[09:09] <existance> oskude, err.. dunno
[09:09] <OmegaAlpha> hello, anyone know about the process of moving a partition from the end of a drive to the beginning.. what exactly happens to the files to do this?
[09:09] <oskude> existance, dpkg -l | grep xauth
[09:09] <stewski> I can install mplayer or vlc but I cant believe we're still this far from a useable mediaplayer
[09:09] <_jason> DaMouse_: applications menu > internet > mozilla browser
[09:09] <existance> oskude, i do
[09:09] <joonas__> i guess that now i downloaded it but how to start that programm
[09:09] <oskude> existance, hmm
[09:09] <stewski> even if codecs/libdvd have to be added
[09:09] <nickrud> stewski: try xine-ui , one more to dis :)
[09:10] <GnarusLeo> stewski, couldnt agree more
[09:10] <Jhair> stewski: gstreamer still is a bloated and buggy package, many, many issues related to video playback are from users trying to make totem-gstreamer work
[09:10] <Dantien> thanx _jason
[09:10] <frankg> nickrud: http://dragon.cbi.tamucc.edu:8080/14?submit=Reformat+it
[09:10] <stewski> so is that the fact - totem still doesnt work?
[09:10] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, what did you dl?
[09:10] <existance> oskude, wierd.\
[09:10] <Jhair> stewski: totem-xine doesn't use the gstreamer libraries
[09:10] <oskude> existance, do you allready have an xserver running ?
[09:11] <stewski> I want to use the gstreamer
[09:11] <ron_> i just deleted alot of programs O.o lol
[09:11] <existance> oskude, yup
[09:11] <joonas__> that wine program and i want to know how to open that because i want to install some win files
[09:11] <existance> oskude, you?
[09:11] <Jhair> stewski: ok, is your choice
[09:11] <oskude> existance, yes
[09:11] <katarot> ok if put that code in the home dir in a text file and then open it up
[09:11] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, just type 'wine <win file> without the <>
[09:11] <nickrud> frankg: you have some odd sources, yes :) paste /etc/apt/sources.list , I'll fix it for you
[09:11] <existance> oskude, might try it without one... not sure if that would help
[09:12] <oskude> existance, i tried now "xvfb-run --auto-servernum --server-num=0 xlogo" (notice server num) and get the same error as you
[09:12] <hakan_rt>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY 131182
[09:12] <nickrud> katarot: One thing: I didn't check your script, I just cut and pasted it.
[09:12] <stewski> so we saying new gstreamer cant play DVDs?
[09:12] <existance> oskude, really?
[09:12] <existance> oskude, did you change anything?
[09:12] <truz24> we got hakan_rt 's password now !!!
[09:12] <truz24> :-) j/k
[09:12] <nickrud> katarot: exit the file, and then type chmod u+x /path/to/file
[09:12] <katarot> yeah but will i put that in a text
[09:12] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, note that wine can only run some win files not all... the developers are constantly working on new ones to work with it
[09:12] <oskude> existance, http://pastebin.com/604074
[09:12] <Jhair> stewski: I would not say it can't. The point is, mplayer and xine do it better now
[09:12] <existance> oskude, i got it!
[09:13] <existance> oskude, you still have a xvfb session running
[09:13] <joonas__> so what i have to write to console
[09:13] <existance> oskude, I did anyways :/
[09:13] <Morrowyn> FlyingSquirrel32,  loved that too ;)
[09:13] <Wizz_kidd> my printer isnt working :(
[09:13] <oskude> existance, thats why i asked :)
[09:13] <katarot> ok i need to boot up unbuntu so i brb
[09:13] <Wizz_kidd> hp office jet 5500 it worked on my last linux distro not on ubuntu though
[09:13] <existance> oskude, heh I thought you meant a REAL X server :P
[09:13] <nickrud> katarot: I missed what you said; you should preface your lines with the name of the person you're talking to
[09:13] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, in terminal 'wine whateveryourwinfileis.exe'
[09:13] <existance> oskude, now to try it with soffice
[09:13] <frankg> nickrud: http://dragon.cbi.tamucc.edu:8080/15
[09:14] <dustin_> aaah
[09:14] <joonas__> should i put the directory where the file is
[09:14] <dustin_> i am so damn consfused
[09:14] <existance> oskude, thanks for the help
[09:14] <oskude> existance, you can run more server (AFAIK) just take another server-.num
[09:14] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, change into that directory
[09:14] <existance> oskude, makes sense
[09:14] <joonas__> to what directory?
[09:14] <OmegaAlpha> cd /location/of/winfile then wine winfile.exe
[09:14] <joonas__> im so new ubuntu user so i dont know much yet
[09:15] <OmegaAlpha> what win file is it?
[09:15] <OmegaAlpha> and where did you download it to?
[09:15] <nickrud> frankg: you have a few errors there, a sec
[09:15] <joonas__> peerguardian and steam
[09:15] <existance> oskude, wooo, I can use openoffice in the background now :D
[09:15] <frankg> nickrud: okay - waiting
[09:15] <oskude> existance, nice (i learned something new too) :)
[09:15] <existance> oskude, hehe
[09:15] <joonas__> and it is for linux too
[09:16] <fromvega> I'm trying to configure a Virtual Host for SVN, so I created a file in /etc/apache2/sites-available/svn  It is to be local access only so I access the server using its ip number or the name like http://server2    I have tried to configure to access like svn.server2 without success, and changed to server2/svn  Now when I access http://server2, it shows Subversion directly (I also tried with Trac).  Could you help-me?
[09:16] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, wait whats for linux? you dont need wine to run a linux program
[09:16] <caglar> which packages do I have to use with mail-notification to get ssl/gmail support?
[09:16] <joonas__> that peerguardian is for linux
[09:17] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, oh ok then you dont need to wine that.. just steam.
[09:17] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, where did you download steam to? what directory ?
[09:17] <joonas__> the filename is peerguardnf-1,5beta.i386.deb so how to install that
[09:17] <joonas__> steaminstall is on desktop
[09:18] <Chodder> peerguardian?
[09:18] <Chodder> lmao
[09:18] <OmegaAlpha> ok then 'cd ~/Desktop' in your terminal
[09:18] <Chodder> Are you trying to bypass steams cheating thing?
[09:18] <Chodder> I forget what it's called
[09:19] <nickrud> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10304 <<<--- frank23
[09:19] <frankg> checking
[09:19] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, let me know once you have done that.. then type 'ls' to list the files on your desktop to see what steam is called
[09:19] <joonas__> steam is .exe file
[09:19] <Chodder> steaminstall.exe
[09:19] <nickrud> frankg: mainly, you replaced main restricted with universe multiverse , not good, they're additions :)
[09:20] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, yeah i know.. ok are you in the desktop directory in your terminal?
[09:20] <joonas__> so what i have to write to console to install that
[09:20] <Chodder> steam isnt going to work with just normal wine
[09:20] <joonas__> so what do i need
[09:20] <Chodder> unless you did some modding to wine
[09:20] <nickrud> frankg: brb
[09:20] <frankg> nickrud - ok
[09:21] <Chodder> joonas__, WineX/Cedega or I think the forums have a guide for getting normal Wine to run Steam/CS/CSS
[09:21] <joonas__> now im in the desktop in terminal
[09:21] <jcplata> Hi
[09:21] <OmegaAlpha> Chodder,  yes it will
[09:21] <jcplata> Hi
[09:21] <pvd2006> Alright, I got APache web server 2.0 running. I am confused as to where to put the html, cgi, pl files. I mean since its hosted on my own IP and im just using it to test cgi scripts I dont need to ftp anything. There should be some directory on Ubuntu where I can load those files and they will show up when I goto my local site, right?
[09:22] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, ok type 'ls'
[09:22] <Chodder> OmegaAlpha, stock wine wont allow playing games of that type
[09:22] <pvd2006> IVe been reading a lot of tutorials on apache, and havent figured that out. Even though its probably something really simple.
[09:22] <joonas__> i put that
[09:22] <Chodder> You would need to mod it to be able to play the games steam offers
[09:22] <OmegaAlpha> Chodder, http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=1554
[09:22] <oskude> pvd2006, the documentroot of apache is normally "/var/www"
[09:23] <nickrud> frankg: that work for you?
[09:23] <ompaul> pvd2006, g a lot of tutorials on apache, and havent figured that out. Even though its probably something really simple.
[09:23] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, ok you see the steam.exe file... now type 'wine' and the name of that steaminstall execute file
[09:23] <ompaul> pvd2006, /var/www/apache2-default/
[09:23] <frankg> nickrud not yet
[09:23] <nazgulwalker> are there a compiler like avac in ubuntu ?
[09:23] <pvd2006> lol
[09:23] <pvd2006> I cant believe that...
[09:23] <Chodder> OmegaAlpha, steam will run thats obvious, but good luck getting the games to work
[09:23] <pvd2006> it was simple...
[09:23] <Chodder> Lmao
[09:23] <pvd2006> Thanks
[09:23] <s3phiroth> hi there. has anyone already used a datashow with ubuntu ?! i'd like to know how to keep the same image on the laptop screen and the datashow, and i've already googled and searched on the forums/wiki with no luck :(
[09:23] <frankg> nickrud: I tried apt-get install kdevelop3 -- errora
[09:23] <Chodder> I'm postive it will not work with a stock build of wine
[09:23] <ompaul> pvd2006, also have a look at /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
[09:23] <nazgulwalker> are there a compiler like avac in ubuntu ?
[09:23] <Chodder> Not steam but rather the games
[09:23] <frankg> nickrud - trying synaptic now
[09:23] <nickrud> frankg: paste 'em
[09:23] <pvd2006> There isnt much in http.conf
[09:24] <pvd2006> just a few lines
[09:24] <Chodder> Such as counter-strike and counter-strike source
[09:24] <nazgulwalker> are there a compiler like javac in ubuntu ? (sorry for the flood)
[09:24] <pvd2006> of comments
[09:24] <OmegaAlpha> Chodder, i already got some to work. im sure they dont work that well.. and some probably dont work but some do
[09:24] <frankg> nickrud  I replaced my file with your text
[09:24] <OmegaAlpha> Chodder, i had TFC work fine
[09:24] <pvd2006> all the stuff is in apache2.conf or something similar in the etc/apache2 directory
[09:24] <Chodder> I wouldnt waste his time, there is a guide on the forums to getting it to work in wine properly
[09:24] <Chodder> I think it was in the ubuntu forums I can't remember for sure
[09:24] <frankg> nickrud - synaptic seems to be doing the trick - in progress
[09:25] <pvd2006> Now I guess I just create a cgi/bin directory for cgi files
[09:26] <joonas__> but is is not in the list in terminal but the file is on the desktop
[09:26] <katarot> im really sorry can you tell me the Ch+U+V thing again
[09:26] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, are you sure you are in the Desktop directory?
[09:27] <Fawzib> hello, is there an easy way to change the host address and name in ubuntu (something like dpkg-reconfigure <package>)?
[09:27] <katarot> i didnt get it lol i boot up ubuntu and forget i save instructions to usb this time
[09:27] <joonas__> i put to terminal 'ls' ans there are other files but bot that steam
[09:28] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, those other files.. are they on yoru desktop so we know you are in the right directory?
[09:28] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, i wouldnt think its hidden but if you want you can enter the command 'ls -a'
[09:28] <katarot> nickrud: did i do it wrong was it ch+u+v
[09:29] <frankg> nickrud: it worked
[09:29] <nickrud> katarot: chmod u+x <file>
[09:29] <nickrud> frankg: good
[09:29] <joonas__> command not found
[09:29] <katarot> thanks lol
[09:29] <frankg> nickrud: ithanks
[09:29] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, ls -a is not found when you type that into your terminal?
[09:30] <nickrud> katarot: I think I missed a couple of things you said earlier; you should start your line with the name of the person you're talking to, it gets their attention
[09:30] <pingswept> Hey, what's a good PCI graphics card to buy if I want to try XGL?
[09:30] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, now that stomps me... that lists all files in a directory thats what the -a means
[09:30] <_jason> joonas__: ls as in lowercase LS
[09:30] <painkiler> hey guys
[09:30] <joonas__> there is all files without steam
[09:30] <joonas__> :S
[09:30] <painkiler> how do i update to Dapper with out downloading a new iso?
[09:31] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, what happens when you double click the steam file on your desktop?
[09:31] <_jason> ubotu: tell painkiler about upgrade
[09:31] <Chodder> OmegaAlpha, take a look here http://cslinux.hacka.net/
[09:31] <joonas__> "/home/joonas/desktop/steaminstall.exe" can't be shown
[09:32] <Absenth> what's the command to launch an application as root, or at least with sudo privs in X?
[09:32] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, i believe if wine is installed properly that you should be able to double click the steam install on your actual desktop
[09:32] <joonas__> so then it is not installed
[09:32] <joonas__> do you have some source where i could download it
[09:33] <bjornkri> ohoy
[09:33] <nickrud> painkiler: change all the references in /etc/apt/sources.list from breezy to dapper ; then sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[09:33] <kosnick> hi
[09:33] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[09:33] <oskude> Absenth, i think it was gksudo ...
[09:33] <bjornkri> How do I change the default browser and email program and so forth up by the menu in Ubuntu?
[09:34] <nickrud> bjornkri: system->prefs->preferred applications
[09:34] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, btw to install that .deb file you have.. try using the dpkg command in terminal along with the file name after it
[09:34] <mouldy> hey all, I'm trying to set up my hp2600 printer through  the network. When I go to the Add a printer thing it asks for a host and a port (default 9100) what on earth do I put in the host?
[09:34] <OmegaAlpha> i forgot if there are perimeters to enter along with dpkg though
[09:34] <bjornkri> nickrud: That's what I did and I've changed my default web browser to Epiphany, but the internet icon still starts firefox
[09:35] <Chodder> Crap
[09:35] <nickrud> bjornkri: locate epiphany in your menus, and right click  add to panel
[09:35] <joonas__> i downloaded that but it failed again
[09:35] <MdSalih> anyone in here that can help me with XGL on ubuntu ? #ubuntu-xgl is dead :(
[09:35] <bjornkri> Aaah
[09:35] <bjornkri> Thanks, that did the trick
[09:35] <oskude> mouldy, the IP of your network printer
[09:35] <nickrud> bjornkri: that's not 'browser', that
[09:35] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, what do you mean it failed?
[09:35] <stewski> anyone know how to get surround sound on nforce2 under dapper?
[09:35] <nickrud> 's firefox :)
[09:35] <Enthusiast78> mouldy, Is that a newtwork printer or is it plugged to another computer?
[09:36] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, what happens when you go to download it?
[09:36] <mouldy> Enthusiast78: It's a network printer
[09:36] <joonas__> there is that deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/ and there is failed
[09:36] <mouldy> oskude: How do I find the IP address?
[09:36] <nickrud> MdSalih: try #ubuntu+1
[09:36] <Enthusiast78> mouldy, Then oskude's advice's your best bet. ;)
[09:36] <wewrrss> i want to get the info about machine running linux - i want to know does it have sdram or ddram, how can i do that from shel ??
[09:36] <stewski> I can dupplicate front  channels but Id like to get 4 speaker playback under mplayer?
[09:36] <joonas__> when i put it to atp line and it comes to the list and i push install it waits a moment and then failed
[09:36] <gimmulf_> Hi, how do i reconfigure my internet connection (network) so i becomes like i installed ubuntu wth the dhcp options, i was playing around with ppoe and now when i use dhcp again i have to run "sudo dhclient" after every reboot to get my network running :(
[09:37] <oskude> mouldy, where does your printer get its ip, dhcp or is static ?
[09:37] <mouldy> oskude: DHCP I think (not entirely sure)
[09:37] <oskude> mouldy, so you propably have it in your router that has dhcp ?
[09:37] <Enthusiast78> gimmulf, Install 'rcconf' and run it. See if the dhclient is marked for automatic startup. ;)
[09:37] <farous> anyone know how to append to files. I have tow pdf files and want to join them in one single pdf file. Is there a command script that i can use for that
[09:37] <dairo> dairo
[09:37] <gimmulf_> oki Enthusiast78
[09:37] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, in terminal type 'sudo apt-get install wine'
[09:37] <paradizelost> hey all
[09:37] <mouldy> oskude: ok, now to remember the IP address and username and password of my router :\
[09:38] <paradizelost> can anyone tell me how to install xorg 7 on breezy?
[09:38] <Enthusiast78> farous, 'cat file1 file2 file3 >> ultimate_file'
[09:38] <oskude> mouldy, you could try the comman nmap
[09:38] <MdSalih> #ununtu+1 also dead :(
[09:38] <oskude> mouldy, to find out what services are running in your network
[09:38] <nickrud> paradizelost: compile it :)
[09:38] <mouldy> oskude: A what? :p
[09:38] <farous> Enthusiast78: thanks i was using > instead of the >> and knew i forgot something thanks again
[09:38] <oskude> mouldy, sudo apt-get install nmap
[09:39] <mouldy> ok
[09:39] <oskude> sec
[09:39] <paradizelost> well, how bout this one, how do i make glxgears show me the FPS?
[09:39] <mouldy> oskude: now what do I do with it?
[09:40] <joonas__> command not found
[09:40] <oskude> nmap 10.20.30.* (or what ever network you have, propably 192.168.0.*)
[09:40] <Stormx2> Hey all
[09:40] <paradizelost> never mind.
[09:40] <paradizelost> glxgears -iacknowlegethatthistoolisnotabenchmark
[09:40] <mouldy> ok, thanks *waits for it to do whatever its going to do*
[09:40] <paradizelost> that has to be the longest switch i have ever seen
[09:41] <oskude> mouldy, and it should show one ip with port 9100 (if printer is on the same network)
[09:41] <Protocol1> do an ip addr
[09:41] <nickrud> paradizelost: ah, I couldn't remember the tool part :)
[09:41] <stewski> does anyone have a multichannel sound setup working?
[09:41] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, what command was not found?
[09:41] <paradizelost> with Xgl, i'm getting 10,630 FPS
[09:41] <joonas__>  'sudo apt-get install wine'
[09:41] <Enthusiast78> paradizelost, There's a short version... Too bad I can't remember it... :P
[09:42] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, that is odd... i have no idea why that is doing that.. as if the commands arent in ubuntus library
[09:42] <mouldy> there isn't one with port 9100 :\
[09:42] <wewrrss> i want to get the info about machine running linux - i want to know does it have sdram or ddram, how can i do that from shel ??
[09:42] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, can you enter 'apt-cache search wine' ?
[09:42] <oskude> mouldy, hmm
[09:42] <mouldy> wait...*turns on printer*
[09:42] <mouldy> might help :p
[09:42] <oskude> doh
[09:43] <oskude> mouldy, did you find your computer an the router ?
[09:43] <joonas__> no i cant
[09:43] <zanaga> argh! is there a proper howto on debugging dmix related problems? i can't get dmix to work and i'm stuck with esd on gstreamer and plain alsa on other apps =(
[09:43] <Enthusiast78> Yango|marrying, Congratulations!
[09:43] <oskude> mouldy, didnt you have the printer on as you did the printer wizard ? i think it should find it automaticly
[09:43] <Enthusiast78> mouldy, LOL!
[09:44] <oskude> ...
[09:44] <mouldy> oskude: naa, it didnt find it. It was on earlier but the damn thing turns itself off if you dont use it for 10 minutes or somehting
[09:44] <oskude> mouldy, :)
[09:44] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, i have no idea whats wrong then.. i dont know why you cant enter these important commands
[09:44] <joonas__> fuck this cant take any commands
[09:45] <joonas__> can there be an error when i istalled this
[09:45] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, your ubuntu may be messed up
[09:46] <gimmulf> !dhcp
[09:46] <ubotu> gimmulf: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:46] <Siriuskr> Hey i got a 100 Mhz laptop and 40 mb of ram on it, im trying to install Ubuntu, but when it gets to a certian spot in the install it just keeps looping it sends a kill signal and then trys again and keeps doing this.
[09:46] <stewski> I'll take it no one is running a multichannels sound setup under ubuntu?
[09:46] <Siriuskr> I tried lol
[09:46] <oskude> Siriuskr, how big is the HD, did you try a normal installation ?
[09:46] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, do you know what Synaptic PAckage Manager is?
[09:47] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, Have you tried the 'server' or 'expert' install modes?
[09:47] <Siriuskr> oskude: the hd is around 2 gig and it should format that first anyways, i did try the normal install
[09:47] <Siriuskr> Enthysiast78: What does the expert install mode do ?
[09:47] <oskude> Siriuskr, 2gb is not enough (with swap) for a standard ubuntu installataion
[09:47] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, System ->Administration-> Synaptic Package Manger. then look for the search button on the top right.. type in 'wine'
[09:47] <nickrud> stewski: the resident expert on sound is crimsun ; he's not around right now, but he usually drops in daily
[09:47] <joonas__> ok
[09:48] <crimsun> (I just joined)
[09:48] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, It lets you choose many options that the normal installation hides.
[09:48] <oskude> Siriuskr, you need to make a "server" installation and add a lightweight window manager (if you need one)
[09:48] <crimsun> stewski: recap please?
[09:48] <stewski> cheers nickrud do you know if he's managed to get multichannel playback from dvd?
[09:48] <Siriuskr> Okay thanks !
[09:48] <stewski> speak of the devil
[09:48] <attar> hello, is there an application like vmware for linux?
[09:48] <nickrud> stewski: ask him, he came in between my checking & typing :)
[09:48] <joonas__> no this dont find anything
[09:48] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, I think oskude's advice is the best choice.
[09:48] <OmegaAlpha> nothing at all?
[09:48] <stewski> Im trying on dapper flight 5 to enable 4 speaker playback
[09:49] <OmegaAlpha> hmm your repositories are maybe messed up
[09:49] <oskude> Siriuskr, after server install do "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" and you should get a nice LW desktop
[09:49] <stewski> Im running an nforce2 four speaker set up
[09:49] <crimsun> stewski: cat /proc/asound/modules
[09:49] <crimsun> ok, so snd-intel8x0
[09:49] <Enthusiast78> stewski, the SPEAK OF THE DEVIL DVD?!?!?!?! :-O
[09:49] <Siriuskr> k
[09:49] <locke> where can i get limewire?
[09:49] <crimsun> stewski: which application are you using? totem should offer the selection
[09:49] <oskude> Siriuskr, works "fast" with 233mhz, but 100mhz could be very slow..
[09:49] <tonyyarusso> stewski: Dapper questions are being addressed in #ubuntu+1, so you might have better luck there.
[09:49] <tonyyarusso> ubotu: tell locke about limewire
[09:49] <Enthusiast78> locke, www.limewire.org
[09:50] <stewski> 0 snd_intel8x0 (I assume for the nforce)
[09:50] <Siriuskr> oskude: well i have like 3 of these and im gona sell them later but i dont want to put 95 or 98 on them lol
[09:50] <crimsun> stewski: right, see above :)
[09:50] <madmatt> hi
[09:50] <stewski> 1 snd_bt87x (my hauppage tv card)
[09:50] <madmatt> does anyone know how I am supposed to copy a directory over to another folder
[09:50] <joonas__> there are nothing
[09:51] <Enthusiast78> locke, 'giftoxic' is a very nice 'replacement' for LimeWire.
[09:51] <oskude> Siriuskr, xubuntu-desktop installs xfce4 so it should look good in sell catalog ;)
[09:51] <nickrud> madmatt: mv dir location
[09:51] <Siriuskr> :D
[09:51] <stewski> currently totem-gstreamer isnt working with libdvdcss?
[09:51] <madmatt> does cp work or no
[09:51] <stewski> is there anyway to test multichannels?
[09:51] <oskude> Siriuskr, http://www.xfce.org/index.php?page=screenshots&lang=en
[09:51] <stewski> I can replicate the front channel onto the back
[09:51] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, How much do you want for them?!?! :D
[09:52] <Siriuskr> around 20 - 25
[09:52] <crimsun> stewski: so 4-speaker works?
[09:52] <LethalSword> How do i access my network?
[09:52] <polpak> LethalSword, a windows network? like shared drives etc?
[09:52] <nickrud> madmatt: cp dir/* location/
[09:52] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, Ship to Brazil?! :D
[09:52] <stewski> I can replicate the front LR to rear
[09:52] <LethalSword> yea polpak
[09:52] <katarot> nickrud: i did it confused on what to do next nothing came up
[09:52] <stewski> but cant get 4 independant channels out of a DVD
[09:52] <polpak> LethalSword, Places->Network Servers
[09:53] <Siriuskr> Enthusiast78: lmao your better off with a new laptop lol
[09:53] <java_4_ever> anyone know of a link that handles the mythweb .19 issue of "Database Setup Error"... i checked the db settings which look fine... this only happened once i upgraded to .19
[09:53] <nickrud> katarot: I don't use ndiswrapper, so I'm not even sure what that script did
[09:53] <katarot> ohh lol
[09:53] <crimsun> stewski: ah, can you try with vlc, totem-xine, or mplayer?
[09:53] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, There goes my portable dream... :'(
[09:53] <LethalSword> and how do i share folders myself
[09:53] <LethalSword> ?
[09:53] <madmatt> thanks
[09:53] <stewski> Im running mplayer
[09:54] <polpak> LethalSword, System->Administration->Shared Folders
[09:54] <Siriuskr> Enthusiast78: lmao these things are crap the batterys suck and i hate them lol, i sold my last one for 50 bucks :D with 98 on it
[09:54] <katarot> is there no way to do it apart from ndiswrapper
[09:54] <stewski> it runs dvds fine crimsun but refuses to give 4 channel output
[09:54] <OmegaAlpha> joonas__, http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/ch02.html
[09:54] <OmegaAlpha> that should help you if you havent done that already
[09:55] <joonas__> thx
[09:55] <LethalSword> oh and how do i change the color depth
[09:55] <crimsun> stewski: right, you need to tell mplayer to use a certain configuration
[09:55] <nickrud> katarot: I don't know :) I don't have wireless, and hear much knashing of teeth on this channel over it.
[09:55] <Gnumannen> I just installed 'ubuntu-desktop', how do I change from fluxbox to gnome now?
[09:56] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, Hmmm... Ok, feelin' better now, thanks! ;)
[09:56] <jodanlime> does anybody know how to get the extra buttons on my keyboard to do stuff?
[09:56] <katarot> lol
[09:56] <nickrud> Gnumannen: at the login screen, option session(s)
[09:56] <Kyral> Gnumannen, install Fluxbox, logout of GNOME, and use tthe "Sessions" menu in GDM
[09:56] <Siriuskr> Enthusiast78: Check ebay out they got nicer laptops for decent prices
[09:56] <LethalSword> how do i change the color depth
[09:56] <crimsun> stewski: for instance, if you invoke mplayer from cli, you need to pass -channels 6
[09:56] <katarot> well does anyone know anything about ndiswrapper
[09:56] <stewski> mplayer>preferences>audio>alsa>configure driver>device>surround40 ?
[09:57] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, Hmmm... And I still have a few bucks on paypal... Thanks for the tip!
[09:57] <Gnumannen> nickrud,  will it come up when I reboot?
[09:57] <nickrud> LethalSword: changing colordepth in X is not very straighforward
[09:57] <crimsun> stewski: nope, no need to necessarily change the device
[09:57] <LethalSword> is it possible nickrud
[09:57] <stewski> OK
[09:57] <stewski> Ill set that back to default
[09:57] <Enthusiast78> Gnumannen, Actually you chose which window manager you want when you login in GDM.
[09:57] <Storkme> is there a way to run a command as a new thread and make it work even when the shell session is closed? at the moment, i use "nohup command &", but if i have more then one file, they both write to the same nohup.out file
[09:57] <nickrud> Gnumannen: no, just log out of fluxbox, and choose gnome at the login screen.
[09:57] <oskude> LethalSword, in /etc/X11/xorg.conf "DefaultDepth    24"
[09:57] <Siriuskr> Enthusiast78: Even with the server install its still looping when doing the Loading additional Components.
[09:57] <mindamp> i keep having a problem trying to start clamav-freshclam/clamav-daemon... log_daemon_msg cannot be found...
[09:58] <mindamp> i have deduced that it is lsb-base...
[09:58] <Gnumannen> nickrud,  but I have a text-login
[09:58] <mindamp> how do i go about fixing this?
[09:58] <Jhair> Storkme: (command &)
[09:58] <nickrud> LethalSword: you need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf every time.
[09:58] <Jhair> Storkme: note the parenthesis
[09:58] <Enthusiast78> Siriuskr, Damn... I think you'll have to endure the 'expert' install, then. :/
[09:58] <stewski> -channels 6 (not -channels 4)
[09:58] <Storkme> Jhair, why do i need the parenthesis?
[09:58] <jordo23> Anyone know how to make a usb flash drive mount automatically in Kubuntu?
[09:58] <nickrud> Gnumannen: if you installed ubuntu-desktop, you'll have a login screen on alt-ctl-f7
[09:58] <paradizelost> found it.  glxgears -printfps
[09:58] <paradizelost> cya l8r
[09:58] <Gnumannen> nickrud,  okey :o
[09:59] <Storkme> Jhair, but then what happens to the stdin and stderr ?
[09:59] <LethalSword> nickrud where do i have to edit it
[09:59] <LethalSword> ?
[09:59] <Jhair> Storkme: to make command a child of init, this way command will run if you close the shell from which command was called
[09:59] <LethalSword> Default Depth 24?
[09:59] <crimsun> stewski: right, channels=6 in ~/.mplayer/config
[10:00] <nickrud> LethalSword: exactly, use one of the defined defaults below
[10:00] <Gnumannen> nickrud,  nothing happens when I press ctrl + alt + f7, does it really work in text-mode?
[10:00] <joonas__> bye
[10:00] <LethalSword> oh i cant use 32?
[10:00] <oskude> LethalSword, "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf"  and edit the line "DefaultDepth    24" to your liking...
[10:00] <oskude> LethalSword, 32 "==" 24
[10:00] <stewski> cheers crimsun
[10:00] <Gnumannen> LethalSword,  24 is equal to 32 on other systems
[10:01] <Rubin> i compiled a kernel and /dev/input/mice dissapeared. what am i missing? (ps2 mouse)
[10:01] <nickrud> Gnumannen: in the virtual terminal you were using, type sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start ; it should take you right to the login (if you have ubuntu-desktop installed)
[10:01] <Rubin> i copied the .config from the old one
[10:01] <crimsun> stewski: works?
[10:01] <Storkme> Jhair, okay, but what happens to stdin/stderr? is it possible to redirect stdin to a file?
[10:01] <mindamp> ehlo?
[10:01] <mindamp> anyone?
[10:01] <stewski> spent too long playing with a gui when all I needed was a good ole clie
[10:01] <Gnumannen> nickrud,  okey, thanks
[10:01] <Jhair> Storkme: why do you need stdin? stderr can be redirected
[10:01] <stewski> cli
[10:01] <stewski> yeah seems fine
[10:01] <crimsun> stewski: excellent.
[10:01] <nickrud> LethalSword: it's 24 bits of color, and 8 bits of transparency, I think
[10:01] <springs> i'm completely new to this....someone told me that you could have ubuntu installed on your pc as well as windows....and that when you boot up you can chose what OS to run....is this true?
[10:01] <Kyral> yah
[10:01] <LethalSword> how do i edit it though
[10:01] <LethalSword> its read only
[10:01] <LethalSword> and etc is not a file according to the terminal
[10:02] <Storkme> Jhair, how would i redirect stderr? i'm using bash
[10:02] <Jhair> another happy mplayer user ... :) ?
[10:02] <void^> LethalSword: do you remember sudo?
[10:02] <oskude> LethalSword, "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf"  and edit the line "DefaultDepth    24" to your liking...
[10:02] <Kyral> springs, yes it is true
[10:02] <springs> Kyral...were you answering me?
[10:02] <springs> wow that's cool
[10:02] <Kyral> though why would you WANT to boot back to Windows..?
[10:02] <springs> i just got the cd today...but it doesn't come with any instructions
[10:02] <springs> hehe
[10:02] <stewski> wheres the mplayer conf kept
[10:03] <Kyral> !install
[10:03] <ubotu> Installing Ubuntu? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation Installing software on Ubuntu? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingSoftware
[10:03] <springs> well maybe not...but i've never used a linux system...maybe i'll convert
[10:03] <Kyral> ubotu, tell springs about install
[10:03] <springs> thx Kyral
[10:03] <nickrud> stewski: ~/.mplayer/config
[10:03] <Enthusiast78> Storkme, command 2> file
[10:03] <Storkme> cool, thanks Enthusiast78
[10:03] <Kyral> !botsnack
[10:03] <ubotu> thanks kyral :)
[10:03] <springs> hehe
[10:03] <Storkme> Enthusiast78, stdin would be 1> file ?
[10:03] <Enthusiast78> Storkme, precisely
[10:04] <Jhair> Storkme: (command 2> error.log &)
[10:04] <Enthusiast78> oops
[10:04] <oskude> windows needs pc knowledge as much as linux (maybe even more) if its NOT preinstalled !
[10:04] <Enthusiast78> Storkme, sorry, dunno where I read 'stdout'...
[10:04] <stewski> in my home directory nickrud?
[10:04] <tristanmike> oskude, not that it's a conversation for here, but no it doesn't, imo
[10:04] <Kyral> yah anyone who says XP is easy to install has obviously never tried it without that nice Driver Disk tha Prebuilts come with
[10:05] <nickrud> stewski: ~/ <-- that's a shortcut for your home directory
[10:05] <Enthusiast78> Storkme, stdin is '-' (minus)
[10:05] <mouldy> weeee good news everyone! My printer now works! (not that any of you care but still :p)
[10:05] <stewski> I cant see any . files at the command prompt and I being a thicky?
[10:05] <stewski> am I?
[10:05] <LethalSword> Can ubuntu open rar files with the archive manager?
[10:05] <Kyral> stewski, ls -a :P
[10:05] <tristanmike> !tell LethalSword about rar
[10:06] <nickrud> stewski: I hope you have a large terminal open :)
[10:06] <stewski> lol Ive been away from unix too long
[10:06] <deltron> unrar
[10:06] <metalhedd> !tell metalhedd about rar
[10:06] <LethalSword> can it open zip files?
[10:06] <LethalSword> !tell LethalSword about zip
[10:06] <oskude> mouldy, nice
[10:07] <mouldy> oskude: thanks for your help =)
[10:07] <tristanmike> LethalSword, it should open "zip" by default
[10:07] <nickrud> LethalSword: fasted way to find out is to try ;)
[10:07] <oskude> mouldy, thank you for you patience/interest :)
[10:08] <LethalSword> ok
[10:08] <mouldy> hehe
[10:08] <bjornkri> I finally figured out what I didn't like about the whole look of Gnome... Too large font by default. Just dropped the font-size down a bit and the whole look is soo much cleaner
[10:09] <bjornkri> Is that just me?
[10:09] <snikker> when i try to print with firefox (or konqueror), the browser crash... someones can help me?
[10:09] <TD-Linux> I think the font is too large with kde by default too
[10:09] <TD-Linux> at least for most people
[10:09] <bjornkri> This is on a 1024x768 screen laptop mind
[10:09] <TD-Linux> I like the default size in kde, but then again I use 1600x1200
[10:09] <TD-Linux> on a 19" CRT
[10:09] <bjornkri> That might be the difference
[10:10] <crimsun> bjornkri: it's a matter of preference. Initially I thought that, too, on this laptop's 1024x768, but I've grown accustomed to it.
[10:10] <stewski> alsorted cheers again mr nickrud
[10:10] <bjornkri> On a bigger higher res screen it would be better :)
[10:10] <nickrud> stewski: yw
[10:12] <james> anyone know any good online games for linux newbie here that loves to game

[10:13] <mouldy> Is there a way to get XGL not to render a shadow for a window that really isn't a window :pIt keeps putting shadows around gdesklets which looks a bit odd. Is there a way to make it ignore gdesklets? http://img85.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot7da.png

[10:16] <stewski> and with only config at the app end - dapper is great
[10:16] <Dantien> !ff1,5
[10:16] <nickrud> mouldy: there's probably options for that, but I don't think xgl is well enough documented to try searching google yet
[10:17] <mouldy> nickrud: ah ok, I guess I'll just shutup and put up until someone else figures it out
[10:17] <mouldy> thanks anyway :)

[10:33] <EvilDin> am little
[10:33] <EvilDin> help
[10:33] <keishin> I'm trying to basically use Ubuntu as a fileserver for my windows networking LAN.  Could someone point me in the direction of how to set up network drives for NTFS HDs/Partitions?  I know what to do on the windows end.
[10:33] <_jason> bjornkri: you may need to 'sudo modprobe loop' for that to work
[10:33] <misterii> can anyone help me?
[10:33] <nickrud> misterii: yes, it is :)  You might like the xubuntu-desktop, it lighter & faster
[10:34] <EvilDin> i have on my ubuntu resolvconf how i add DNS ???!!!
[10:34] <nickrud> misterii: best thing you can do is add memory
[10:34] <_jason> misterii: just ask, if someone knows they will try :)
[10:34] <sovin> question: is there a plugin for totem-xine for wmv?
[10:34] <MOEBIOUX> but /// CAN I DOWNLOAD this plugs with my live version /// i mean without having any HD use
[10:34] <misterii> nickrud, duh =)
[10:34] <nickrud> EvilDin: for ppp, ethernet, or what?
[10:34] <_jason> misterii: try xubuntu instead
[10:34] <misterii> xubuntu?
[10:34] <_jason> ubotu: tell misterii about xubuntu
[10:35] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: yes
[10:35] <misterii> xubuntu?
[10:35] <EvilDin> am ppp i think
[10:35] <misterii> where can I find it?
[10:35] <_jason> misterii: check your private messages from ubotu
[10:35] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: you can even install new programs (as long as they fit in ram)
[10:35] <yaaar> word
[10:35] <dabear> Hi, are there any native drivers for the INPROCOMM IPN 2220 Wireless cards?
[10:35] <raven_> Hi everyone
[10:35] <sovin> question! is there a way to make it possible for totem-xine to play wmv files?
[10:36] <_jason> misterii: if you already have ubuntu all you need to do is install the 'xubuntu-desktop' package
[10:36] <frank23> sovin: you need w32codecs
[10:36] <frank23> !tell sovin about restricted
[10:36] <MOEBIOUX> BUT THIS WILL SLOW THE PROCESSOR EXECUTION RIGHT...
[10:36] <raven_> Im seriously new to ubuntu, can someone help me with a installation problem please
[10:36] <sovin> frank23: thanks
[10:36] <jackyyll> where are the grub config files located?
[10:36] <_jason> raven_: we need to know the problem :)
[10:36] <_jason> jackyyll: /boot/grub
[10:36] <Phuzion> How do I change a user's home directory?
[10:36] <jjs01h> just installed the synaptics driver and set it up as detailed in the readme.. now i have the things like clicking by tapping, etc, but the touchpad will stop responding if i load any gtk apps :\
[10:37] <jackyyll> _jason: thanks
[10:37] <jjs01h> i then have to kill x
[10:37] <MOEBIOUX> i mean if i stuck t ram partitions foir sure this will slow my OS
[10:37] <_jason> Phuzion: man usermod
[10:37] <MOEBIOUX> ??
[10:37] <MOEBIOUX> no! ?
[10:37] <raven_> I cant install azureus, ive tryed everything i know (which isnt alot)
[10:37] <_jason> ubotu: tell raven_ about azureus
[10:37] <pvd2006> are there that many 64bit programs for linux yet?
[10:37] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: well the live cd is just to try ubuntu. even it slows down, it's just to try anyways
[10:37] <keishin> Anyone have any ideas? =\
[10:37] <jackyyll> _jason: /boot/grub doesnt exist, maybe because im running on the ubuntu live DVD? But i need to reconfigure grub so that i can get back into windows
[10:38] <andre> hello again just a quick question how do you change the default os in grub
[10:38] <Phuzion> _jason:  So, would I use "usermod greed -d /var/www"?
[10:38] <EvilDin> am how to add dns ip to resolvconf ???
[10:38] <EvilDin> any help or guide somewhere
[10:38] <_jason> Phuzion: why do you want to do that?
[10:38] <nickrud> EvilDin: how did you set up your ppp in the first place?
[10:38] <raven_> ?
[10:38] <jjs01h> andre: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst ... the default line will probably say default 0... 0 for the first entry.. change it to 1 for the second entry, etc
[10:38] <Phuzion> _jason:  The only thing I use the account for is to modify files in my FTP
[10:38] <frank23> andre: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and change the   default   0   line
[10:38] <EvilDin> i didn't set anything special
[10:39] <andre> because my wife still wants xp
[10:39] <EvilDin> what should i set
[10:39] <_jason> jackyyll: /boot/grub/menu.lst usually contains that information
[10:39] <jackyyll> _jason: yeah, but the /boot/grub isnt there :p
[10:39] <_jason> Phuzion: yeah taht probably works.  The man page has login after the options, in case it doesn't work
[10:39] <andre> soooooooooo i have to try to administer for the group not the idividual
[10:40] <Titan> Ok, here is an interesting one.  How do when I set the permission for a folder, such as who has write ability and such, ensure that it replecates all they way down to every file within that folder?
[10:40] <_jason> jackyyll: are you sure you have grub installed there?
[10:40] <Titan> Ok, here is an interesting one.  How do when I set the permission for a folder, such as who has write ability and such, ensure that it replecates all they way down to every file within that folder?
[10:40] <frank23> Titan: chmod -R
[10:40] <Titan> frank23: Thanks :)
[10:41] <raven_> Thank you _jason
[10:41] <dianewong> hello is there any specific channel to talk about the ubuntu livecd
[10:41] <keishin> Anyone free to try my question?
[10:41] <MOEBIOUX> frank23: tkanks loko /// A LAST QUESTION somebody tell me that installing my ubuntu breezy in the same HD where i have XP will cause me lots of problems ?? is that true
[10:41] <jackyyll> _jason: Yes, it's installed i was just trying to boot to windows and it gave me this grub thing, but no menu (OS menu)
[10:41] <MOEBIOUX> thats why i havent installed yet my ubuntu
[10:41] <Phuzion> _jason:  I keep getting "user /var/www does not exist"
[10:41] <_jason> jackyyll: just press ESC
[10:41] <jackyyll> _jason: alrighty
[10:41] <_jason> Phuzion: does /var/www exist :)
[10:41] <Phuzion> Yes
[10:42] <Phuzion> I want the user account greed to have its home directory changed to /var/www
[10:42] <_jason> Phuzion: oops didn't read the error message, you have to do usermod -d /var/www username
[10:42] <jjs01h> Titan: could have also typed man chmod.. its right there, first page
[10:42] <Phuzion> _jason:  Thanks for the syntax clearup
[10:42] <Titan> MOEBIOUX: I have ubuntu installed on the same drive as my windoze, just partition it and you should have no problems.
[10:42] <dianewong> hello is there any specific channel to talk about the ubuntu livecd
[10:42] <dianewong> hello?
[10:42] <Phuzion> _jason:  Do I put a trailing slash?
[10:42] <Titan> jjs01h: first page of what?
[10:42] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: you will have to resize the winxp partition which is always risky (I think)
[10:43] <mindamp> i keep having a problem trying to start clamav-freshclam/clamav-daemon... log_daemon_msg cannot be found...
[10:43] <jjs01h> Titan: man chmod
[10:43] <mindamp> i have deduced that it is lsb-base...
[10:43] <_jason> Phuzion: if you want
[10:43] <mindamp> how do i go about fixing this?
[10:43] <MOEBIOUX> Titan: it doesnt cause any problem??
[10:43] <Phuzion> dianewong:  You're in the channel
[10:43] <MOEBIOUX> then should i try???
[10:43] <katarot> im just wondering why are companys refusing to make native linux drivers
[10:43] <Titan> MOEBIOUX: not on my computer
[10:43] <jjs01h> Titan: should say only page
[10:43] <suryam> katarot: they fear what they don't understand: Linux
[10:43] <Titan> jjs01h: thanks :)
[10:43] <dianewong> I wish to know about the security implements included in the autologin feature of the live cd
[10:43] <rysiek|pl> hi all
[10:44] <suryam> katarot: also because they are slaves of m$
[10:44] <_jason> katarot: they don't think it is profitable probably.  Otherwise it would get done
[10:44] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: I wouldn't do something like that without making a backup of all your important files and being prepared to reinstall windows if something goes wrong
[10:44] <dianewong> i feel that anyone drops eggdrops on any system will ubuntu livecd
[10:44] <V4Vendetta> diane?
[10:44] <dianewong> V4Vendetta: yes?
[10:44] <V4Vendetta>  i feel that anyone drops eggdrops on any system will ubuntu livecd
[10:44] <ron_> billy?
[10:44] <MOEBIOUX> frank23: what do u think frank, BECAUSE maybe havin some other HD (ven a small one) should be less riskier ... with all the file system and partition files stuff
[10:44] <V4Vendetta> english please
[10:45] <katarot> yeah i have come to the conclusion there all f*c*i*g one another the owner of dell broadcom and microsoft
[10:45] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: it shouldn't be too risky but I think you still have to prepare for the worst.
[10:46] <dianewong> V4Vendetta: in simple terms, anyone can access a system running the ubuntu livecd from distance
[10:46] <V4Vendetta> dianewong, is that so.
[10:46] <locke> can someone help me with the chmod command?
[10:46] <dianewong> if no, what are the config files which provides such security
[10:46] <keishin> Can someone help?
[10:46] <MOEBIOUX> frank23: thats my great prerrogative!!! because i have all my college and work files in FAT32 (AND THEY Aare very important)
[10:46] <dianewong> V4Vendetta: i feel yes
[10:47] <_jason> locke: what about it?
[10:47] <redguy> MOEBIOUX: surely you have a backup of them, don't you?
[10:47] <MOEBIOUX> frank23: how do u use your llinux OS? ANOTHER PARTITION
[10:47] <Titan> jjs01h: ok, I am not understanding this. I have typed: chmod -R /home/titan/WoW   to change it so I have rights to right to everything in that folder but it gives me a 'to few arguments' error.
[10:47] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: you should still make regular backups. Hard drives do crash sometimes
[10:47] <katarot> i have a question if i enable the remote desktop will anyone help me
[10:47] <_jason> katarot: just ask your question
[10:47] <locke> well, i am trying to install something, it says chmod to 775 and then execute a file, i have no idea what that means
[10:47] <dianewong> my friend (germany) has mounted my harddisk partition while I (norway)was a ubuntu livecd
[10:47] <katarot> that was it
[10:47] <_jason> locke: what are you trying to install?
[10:48] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: I installed linux on a second hard drive. But I had two to start with
[10:48] <mindamp> uhm...
[10:48] <katarot> i cant use ndiswrapper i cant figure it out
[10:48] <jjs01h> Titan: you forgot the permissions. chmod 755 -R /home/titan/WoW
[10:48] <mindamp> and developer/ubuntu experts in here? or am i wasting my time?
[10:48] <MOEBIOUX> frank23: t truth is that everytime i want to copy all that files or protect them // I DONT HAVE $$$ // fuckin beer
[10:48] <jjs01h> Titan: except 755 isn't what you want. thats just an example
[10:48] <locke> Eternal Lands
[10:48] <Titan> jjs01h: no.. I did not forget it, I just did not know about it =P I am pretty new to linux.
[10:48] <jjs01h> Titan: woops. typos. chmod -R 755 /some/path
[10:49] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: yeah ;)
[10:49] <jjs01h> Titan: ahh. well you get it
[10:49] <redguy> MOEBIOUX: a dvd-rw drive and a couple of disks isn't that expensive
[10:49] <_jason> locke: ok it doesn't seem to be in the repos.  Running random files can miss your system up, but if you want to proceed, what is the name of the file?
[10:49] <_jason> s/miss/mess
[10:49] <katarot> 2 days i have had linux and i have instaled ndiswrapper more times than i had hot dinners
[10:49] <MOEBIOUX> frank23: no loko, still havent DVD -
[10:49] <Titan> jjs01h: ummm... so how do I tell what numbers I type instead of 775, I don't understand those mans. :(
[10:50] <locke> el.x86.linux.bin
[10:50] <mindamp> how about this..
[10:50] <mindamp> if i uninstall clamav, and delete the /etc/init.d scripts for it...
[10:50] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: are CDRs big enough?
[10:50] <mindamp> how do i go about regenerating those after dpkg -P clamav?
[10:50] <jjs01h> Titan: hrm. thats hard to . that man chmod explains it, but reading that stuff is nearly impossible.
[10:51] <_jason> locke: ok, open a terminal: applications menu > accessories > terminal.  Where is the file?  on your desktop or somewhere else?
[10:51] <keishin> I'm trying to basically use Ubuntu as a fileserver for my windows networking LAN.  Could someone point me in the direction of how to set up network drives for NTFS HDs/Partitions?  I know what to do on the windows end.
[10:51] <Titan> jjs01h: ya, I do not understand it, oh well I will go back and look again. THanks.
[10:51] <MOEBIOUX> redguy: but thats true that isnt so expensive - dont know, maybe i should spend less money on my girl friend and use it for a real good effort
[10:51] <jjs01h> Titan: the first digit is the owners permissions. the second the groups, the third is everyone else. so 755 is owner has permission of 7, group of 5 and everyone else 5
[10:51] <michael> how can I install sun java with command line?
[10:51] <volcom_b0i> Can someone tell me what is up with the characters under my mount icon? http://www.geocities.com/downbackwards/Screenshot.jpg
[10:51] <_jason> ubotu: tell michael about javadebs
[10:51] <katarot> please tell me what im doing wrong http://rafb.net/paste/results/M6K5R984.html
[10:51] <mindamp> ehlo?
[10:51] <mindamp> anyone?
[10:51] <locke> _jason: it's in a folder in my home directory, i know the basics and how to guide myself around with the CLI, i just haven't had to use chmod often enough
[10:52] <frank23> keishin: look for information on setting up samba shares
[10:52] <erUSUL> keishin, samba.org in the docs section. unvaluable resource
[10:52] <_jason> locke: ok, chmod +x filename, will make the file executable.  Then just do ./filename to run it
[10:52] <MOEBIOUX> frank23: cd-r are just 7000 MB // in my country is the mana
[10:52] <keishin> Okay, Thanks a bunch =)
[10:52] <locke> _jason: thanks
[10:52] <_jason> locke: if you wanted 755 you would do chmod 755 filename by the way.  But the above will work
[10:53] <mindamp> yall suck ass
[10:53] <Titan> jjs01h: so if I say chmod 777 -R /path   then that should set it so everyone has writes to read, write and execute?
[10:53] <mindamp> there
[10:53] <jjs01h> Titan: you got it
[10:53] <mindamp> now i feel at home
[10:53] <MOEBIOUX> frank23: everything is for cd-r recording *** because not everybody have a dvd unit
[10:53] <foampeace> anything wrong with dapper?
[10:53] <jalvarezrom> hello all
[10:53] <Titan> jjs01h: awsome :) Thanks alot!
[10:53] <jjs01h> Titan: not a good idea. 755 is already a lot of access
[10:53] <erUSUL> keishin, http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/
[10:53] <volcom_b0i> http://www.geocities.com/downbackwards/Screenshot.jpg Can anyone tell me what the characters under my mount icon mean?
[10:53] <jalvarezrom> can anyone help my with mounting an usb disk?
[10:54] <Titan> jjs01h: oh ok, I think I am owner anyhow so  Ishould be fine to do 755
[10:54] <foampeace> anyone using dapper?
[10:54] <pvd2006> My friend wants to know if there is any point of downloading the 64bit of Ubuntu over the 32bit version?
[10:54] <frank23> MOEBIOUX: ok.
[10:54] <volcom_b0i> dapper here.
[10:54] <foampeace> volcom_b0i: any problems?
[10:54] <bimberi> ubotu tell michael about javadebs
[10:54] <frank23> pvd2006: 64bit has silghlty better performance. But there are less problems with 32bit
[10:55] <Jhair> who creates the /tmp/.X11-unix directory?
[10:55] <jalvarezrom> my usb disk no mount automatically.
[10:55] <volcom_b0i> had some issues with the broadcom firmware, but once i blacklisted it i could use ndiswrapper again.  I am having a problem with my mounted drives showing weird characters http://www.geocities.com/downbackwards/Screenshot.jpg
[10:55] <bimberi> michael: download the .deb from the sites ubotu /msg'd you and install using 'sudo dpkg -i file.deb'
[10:55] <sebastian> hi I am here for help.  When I right click on a file and say open with another application.  nautilus crashes.  any idea how to solve this problem?
[10:55] <foampeace> i donno my sempron 64 bit has problems in the 32bit land...
[10:55] <katarot> ok i know im using dell mini wireless card and it is really broadcom but why cant i get it even detected
[10:55] <michael> ty
[10:55] <volcom_b0i> My suspend works again in dapper, i ran into a bug in breezy and it broke.
[10:55] <mindamp> sebastian... look in your damn logs
[10:55] <marten71> Anyone that have a wireless card and have driver for bcm4306
[10:55] <pvd2006> thanks frank23
[10:55] <katarot> yeah
[10:55] <sebastian> look in my logs?
[10:56] <katarot> marten71: i do
[10:56] <volcom_b0i> marten71: i have bcm4318
[10:56] <mindamp> sebastian... yes you might have to destroy a few trees first
[10:56] <frank23> foampeace: you mean you have problems with the x86 version of ubuntu that you don't have with AMD64?
[10:56] <cafuego> marten71: Dapper includes a driver.
[10:56] <Titan> jjs01h: it worked, thanks alot for your help. I'm off, got some martial arts to do, thanks again.
[10:56] <mindamp> am i really really drunk/high or is this channel really damn lame
[10:56] <mindamp> ?
[10:56] <sebastian> I dont' know about these logs so on
[10:56] <bimberi> pvd2006: my (possibly uninformed) impression is 64bit is a small performance gain accompanied by frustration regarding packages you can't install (eg. flash, java, wine)
[10:56] <mindamp> sebastian... then you have no business asking that question
[10:56] <jjs01h> Titan: np.
[10:57] <mindamp> bimberi... flash, java, and wine work fine under AMD64
[10:57] <Dantien> i have changed to mozilla and have installed PSM. i still cant wiew this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion what can i do ?
[10:57] <Phuzion> What is the command to uninstall a package?
[10:57] <mindamp> apt-get remove packagename
[10:57] <volcom_b0i> cafuego: dapper doesn't include the firmware though
[10:57] <katarot> so when dapper comes out as stable and i get it it will auto detect my card
[10:57] <cafuego> volcom_b0i: Well.. :-)
[10:57] <volcom_b0i> cafuego: you need to cut it.
[10:57] <cafuego> volcom_b0i: I did a firmware package that seems to do the trick.
[10:57] <foampeace> frank23: let clear myself...currently i am using a Sempron 64bit cpu on the i386 version of breezy. It is crashing a lot. I notice you can config your kernel for K8 generation of amd cpu so im going to try that and i hope its not just cause my hardware is cheap
[10:57] <Phuzion> mindamp: Thanks
[10:57] <cafuego> !bcm43xx
[10:57] <ubotu> Firmware packages for 4306 controllers are at http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/
[10:58] <gridblock> hey, when i type sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper i get error that it cant find it
[10:58] <bimberi> mindamp: then the possibility was correct
[10:58] <jalvarezrom> anyone knows how to mount an USB disk and have give it permissions to create directories?
[10:58] <volcom_b0i> cafuego: what bcm you have? I can get it to scan, but it wont connect on dhclient
[10:58] <ubuntu> _jason: Pressing ESC didnt work
[10:58] <frank23> foampeace: what do you mean by crashing?
[10:58] <cafuego> volcom_b0i: I have a 4306. pcmcia and iBook. Both work fine with WPA.
[10:58] <volcom_b0i> cafuego: i had to black list bcmxx and use ndiswrapper.  I am using bcm4318
 is it hard to install it
[10:58] <Phuzion> What is a good FTP server?
[10:58] <sebastian> I came here for help mandamp not to get some stupid answer from someone
[10:58] <Xenguy> Phuzion: vsftpd
[10:58] <foampeace> frank23: like kernel panics, apps crashing and disappearing and lockups
[10:58] <katarot> cafuego: i have bcm43xx do you know how to get it working
[10:58] <_jason> ubuntu: hrmmm, that should give you the grub menu
[10:58] <volcom_b0i> marten: http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=i386&file=pool%2Fcontrib%2Fb%2Fbcm43xx-fwcutter%2Fbcm43xx-fwcutter_20060108-3_i386.deb&md5sum=9bfb1a825952901577250a864c568b69&arch=i386&type=main
[10:59] <_jason> ubotu: are you in your normal ubuntu install now?
[10:59] <ubotu> _jason: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:59] <Phuzion> Haha
[10:59] <cafuego> katarot: wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[10:59] <_jason> hrmm where did he go
[10:59] <sebastian> I cam ehre for help minidamp not to get some stupid answer from someone
[10:59] <jackyyll> _jason: i think the grub menu was deleted when i tried to install ubuntu, but hte install failed. and no im on the live DVD because i cant get into windows
[11:00] <frank23> foampeace: if you want the amd64 version of ubuntu, you have to reinstall with the amd64 version. It's not just a kernel change. kernel panics and lockups? randomly? unstable hardware might be a possibility I guess
[11:00] <foampeace> frank23: i also read that using a kernel for compiled for a K8 or Amd64 type cpu takes advantage of registers
[11:00] <katarot> cafuego: i have been trying that method for 2 days http://rafb.net/paste/results/M6K5R984.html
[11:00] <andre> cant edit the boot menu it gives me a command not found can anybody help
[11:00] <gridblock> hey, when i type sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper i get error that it cant find it
[11:00] <fluxt> i'm wondering if sudo keeps logs and where they are?
thanks
[11:00] <sebastian> hi I am here for help.  When I right click on a file in Breezy and say open with another application.  nautilus crashes.  any idea how to solve this problem?
[11:00] <frank23> foampeace: yes amd64 will use your processor fully
[11:00] <_jason> jackyyll: so at this point you don't have ubuntu at all?  do you need grub?  why not just give windows the mbr back?
[11:00] <nickrud> fluxt: /var/log/auth.log
[11:00] <jackyyll> _jason: How do i give windows the mbr back?
[11:00] <volcom_b0i> marten71: you need to extract the fw to /lib/firmware
[11:00] <fluxt> thanks nickrud
[11:01] <cafuego> katarot: Yes, sudo with a shell redir ( > ) does not work.
[11:01] <_jason> jackyyll: boot with the windows install disk, and run 'fixmbr'
[11:01] <frank23> andre sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:01] <andre> i cant change the boot menu can anybody help
[11:01] <foampeace> frank23: my cheap sys is past 7 day 15% restocking fee
[11:01] <katarot> emm confused what iam supposed to do then
[11:01] <fluxt> nickrud, you are but i was thinking more command history
[11:01] <_jason> jackyyll: recovery console or some other similar option will let you do that
[11:01] <frank23> foampeace: it is new though?
[11:01] <jackyyll> _jason: Alright i'll try that now
[11:01] <cafuego> katarot: Anyway, mine always worked fine after simply loading the driver, no need to edit config files.
[11:01] <nickrud> fluxt: yeah, as my memory had it, the command history is in there
[11:01] <volcom_b0i> cafuego: hear of any luck with 4318 firmware using the native method?
[11:01] <markymarknz> andre, what do you want to do ?
[11:01] <fluxt> nickrud, oh it has it :) cool
[11:01] <foampeace> frank23: it seemed like a good deal for $300 new
[11:01] <cafuego> volcom_b0i: Not sofar.
[11:02] <foampeace> frank23: but i have yet to find out
[11:02] <volcom_b0i> cafuego: I am close, but no cigar :(
[11:02] <bjornkri> Ok, I'll have to ask again as this didn't work for me. I'm trying to mount a CD image in Linux without burning. It's a .bin/.cue rather than an .iso... Is this possible?
[11:02] <katarot> cafeuego: have i to take all the > out of there
[11:02] <frank23> foampeace: yeah...  however I would be surprised if the amd64 ubuntu would fix any problems that you have with i386
[11:02] <cafuego> katarot: No, if you want to run that loop, run 'sudo -s' first, then run the loop.
[11:03] <frank23> foampeace: try to run diagnostic tools on your computer (like cpu and ram stresstest)
 it is a deb file how do i do
[11:03] <erUSUL> bjornkri, have you searched for an utility that can convert bin/cue to iso? i'm sure that there must be one
[11:03] <katarot> ok thanks i go try that now i will be back in a few minutes tho cos im sure my computer hates me
[11:03] <frank23> foampeace: look for the Ultimate Boot CD.  it has a bunch of tools like that
[11:03] <khedad_sydhoum> does someone have an IBM/Lenovo laptop in the audience :p ?
[11:04] <foampeace> frank23: ya its not my system its somewhere else and its dialup so i have to go there
[11:04] <bjornkri> hmm, good point erUSUL. I'll see if I find anything, thanks
[11:04] <cafuego> erUSUL: There is.
[11:04] <volcom_b0i> marten71: sudo dpkg -i file_name.deb
[11:04] <fluxt> is there a way to edit /var/logs/auth.log ?
[11:05] <gridblock> i just downloaded enlightenment. how do i change to that from gnome?
[11:05] <volcom_b0i> marten71:  you are in dapper right
[11:05] <cafuego> bjornkri: bchunk
ok thanks
[11:05] <nickrud> fluxt: sure, with an editor. doesn't make sense to do it though, it
[11:05] <Freix> Hello :)
[11:05] <erUSUL> bjornkri, sure it is bchunk
[11:05] <nickrud> s a LOG
[11:05] <mikeazorin> join ubuntu-xql
[11:05] <fluxt> nickrud, cannot write file (using vi)
[11:05] <_jason> fluxt: why? (out of curiousity)
[11:05] <Freix> it's veri nice gcj
[11:06] <bjornkri> brillant, thanks guys
[11:06] <cafuego> marten71: wget http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/pool/bcm43xx/bcm43xx-firmware_1.0-0ubuntu4_all.deb; then install that; done.
[11:06] <mindamp> i keep having a problem trying to start clamav-freshclam/clamav-daemon... log_daemon_msg cannot be found...
[11:06] <Freix> java -classpath /usr/share/java/swt-3.1.jar:/usr/share/java/swt-gtk-3.1.jar  -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni/   HelloWorld
[11:06] <fluxt> _jason, to cover up some super squirel tricks done with sudo
[11:06] <mindamp> i have deduced that it is lsb-base...
[11:06] <mindamp> how do i go about fixing this? or restoring the init.d scripts for clamav?
[11:06] <_jason> fluxt: you would use sudo I suppose
[11:06] <volcom_b0i> cafuego: yeah, i sent him a debian deb, worked for me, but ill book mark your page too :)
[11:06] <nickrud> fluxt: only as root
[11:06] <fluxt> omg i wasnt root.. lol
[11:06] <erUSUL> bjornkri cafuego, i even have it installed but forget about it a simple 'man -k iso | head' give me the final hint ;)
[11:06] <mikeazorin> xgl works for dapper and later or just dapper?
[11:07] <foampeace> frank23: this? http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/
[11:07] <frank23> foampeace: yep
[11:07] <jadaz87> hey guys the power meter for ubuntu has disappeared how do i get it back?
[11:07] <foampeace> frank23: thanks
[11:07] <erUSUL> mikeazorin, there is no "later" yet
[11:07] <cafuego> mikeazorin: There is no 'later'
[11:07] <foampeace> ill try
[11:07] <mikeazorin> wait. what version number is dapper? i have 5.10 breezy badger, isn't that latest?
[11:07] <jadaz87> i need it because i am on a laptop
[11:08] <adam_> I just upgraded to 5.10 Breezy and now I don't have gnome-terminal in my menu anymore, nor do I have "run application" in order to run it.
[11:08] <locke> what is a VNC program that i can connect to from Windows to my Linux box?
[11:08] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: gnome-power-manager
[11:08] <cafuego> locke: www,realvnc.com
[11:08] <Freix> yesterday i upgraded from hoary to dapper.. but i had some problem with uspalsh ..
[11:08] <_jason> locke: vncviewer
[11:09] <sebastian> I will try again.  When I right click on a file and say open with another application, Nautilus crashes.  any idea why? and how to solve the problem?
[11:09] <frank23> Is there a way to get remote desktop from windows using the "get help from someone" feature in ubuntu?
[11:09] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i how do i get it back on the top bar next to the time?
[11:09] <locke> _jason: is that in the repositories?
[11:09] <_jason> locke: it's at the site that cafuego gave you
[11:09] <mac^> hi
[11:09] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: did you run that command in a terminal, it should work.
[11:09] <nazgulwalker> i need a link to insal java sdk for ubuntu amd64 breezy , can someone help ?
[11:10] <adam_> How do I get my terminal back? :/
[11:10] <jadaz87> no it says command not foudn
[11:10] <cafuego> nazgulwalker: wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:10] <erUSUL> !tell nazgulwalker about java
[11:10] <_jason> adam_: it's in accessories now
[11:10] <bjornkri> ok, now that I have an iso, should mount -t iso9660 /path/file.iso /media/iso work, or do I need something more?
[11:10] <locke> _Jason: i'm not so great with installing things other than with aptitude...
[11:10] <adam_> _jason, oh, haha
[11:10] <mikeazorin> what the easiest way to upgrade from breezy to dapper?
[11:10] <Klick_> hey all, which ubuntu package in synaptic would contain the /etx/X11/xorg.conf file?
[11:10] <Jimmey__> How'd I play a .wmv?
[11:10] <nazgulwalker> thanks a lot
[11:10] <_jason> locke: well you would install it on windows
[11:10] <BlueDevil> anyone know if Xgl will be in Dapper?
[11:10] <bjornkri> 'cause I get a message saying that it's "not a block devide"
[11:10] <mac^> I am running ubuntu stock kernel - 2.6.15-18-386 .. I need the full headers so I can compile kernel modules.. tried the available modules.. Anything I can do?
[11:10] <Freix> nazgulwalker,
[11:10] <cafuego> mikeazorin: Insert a dapper cd when it gets released.
[11:10] <Freix> java -classpath /usr/share/java/swt-3.1.jar:/usr/share/java/swt-gtk-3.1.jar  -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni/   HelloWorld
[11:10] <bjornkri> device even
[11:10] <adam_> _jason, thanks
[11:10] <Freix> :)
[11:10] <nickrud> bjornkri: just make sure that the directory /media/iso exists
[11:11] <frank23> !tell Jimmey__ about wmv
[11:11] <volcom_b0i> mikeazorin: if you have to ask that question I would recommend waiting till dapper it stable :)
[11:11] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i no it says command not foudn
[11:11] <locke> _jason: i meant i want to control my Linux box from my Windows box
[11:11] <_jason> bjornkri: you need to do 'sudo modprobe loop' too
[11:11] <adam_> _jason, and the root terminal? (For some strange reason I can't 'su' into root)
[11:11] <bjornkri> oh, it worked
[11:11] <_jason> ubotu: tell adam_ about sudo
[11:11] <bjornkri> with -o loop
[11:11] <bjornkri> _jason: what does that do?
[11:11] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: you need to install it then, it will allow your computer to suspend etc.
[11:11] <adam_> _jason, ah, just did sudo su, and it worked
[11:11] <_jason> bjornkri: if it worked you don't need it I guess
[11:12] <mikeazorin> volcom_b0i: i'm good with linux, but i know nothing of ubuntu. i'm sure i could do whatever if i wanted to.
[11:12] <_jason> adam_: no don't do that, do 'sudo -i' instead
[11:12] <bjornkri> _jason: ok, thanks alot
[11:12] <cafuego> mac^: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[11:12] <frank23> mac^: you can download the headers with synaptic. while you're at it  you could also get the k7 or 686 kernel depending on your cpu
[11:12] <locke> _jason: any idea's?
[11:12] <erUSUL> bjornkri, you need -o loop=/dev/loop0
[11:12] <_jason> locke: to control your linux box from your windows one, you need to install a program in windows
[11:13] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: if you jsut want the power meter, then right click panel, Add to Panel, scroll to system and hardware and click battery monitor
[11:13] <sexcopter8000m> is there a poker game in the repositories? or anyone know a good one for playing online? i don't wanna play for money or anything, just fun for coffee breaks etc
[11:13] <mac^> cafuego: I tried that, I have the headers installed. however, the kernel module I am trying to install complains about a missing /lib/modules/<uname -r>/build for some reason
[11:13] <locke> _jason: i know how to do that, i've use realvnc with Windows PCs, i've just never tried to connect to a Linux box from a Windows PC
[11:13] <volcom_b0i> mikeazorin: edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change anything breezy to dapper and then in console sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:14] <mikeazorin> okay, that should work easily?
[11:14] <nazgulwalker> cafuego : i need java compiler not for firefox can you help ?
[11:14] <nazgulwalker> cafuego : i need java compiler not for firefox can you help ?(ubuntu amd64 breezy)
[11:14] <_jason> locke: it's pretty straight forward.  You just fill in the required fields and hit enter
[11:14] <frank23> sexcopter8000m: there are poker sites with java interface. those would work
[11:14] <locke> _jason: but i need a server program for Linux, that was my whole question
[11:14] <nickrud> nazgulwalker: the instructions on !restricted work the the sun jdk
[11:14] <_jason> locke: enabling remote desktop does that
[11:14] <volcom_b0i> mikeazorin: make sure you dist-upgrade, and not just upgrade, because dist-upgrade is a smart upgrade.
[11:14] <locke> _jason: on Windows or Linux?
[11:15] <_jason> locke: linux
[11:15] <andre> i want to have win xp boot first
[11:15] <sexcopter8000m> frank23, can you name any?
[11:15] <frank23> sexcopter8000m: no. I never tried any

[11:17] <jfried> hi, i've just installed ubuntu (6.04) on my new laptop. it has an i950 graphic chipset. is it posible to get a higher resolution than 1024x768 (the display supports 1440x900)
[11:18] <nickrud> Phoul: make sure you have linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) and nvidia-glx installed
[11:18] <Phoul> I do
[11:18] <Phoul> I just dont know what to do now
[11:18] <erUSUL> !tell jfried about fixres
[11:18] <|Bot|home> Where it is possible to send the message with the report on a mistake?
[11:18] <nickrud> Phoul: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, look for Section Device , and set Driver to "nvidia"
[11:19] <Phoul> It is
[11:19] <Phoul> It says no screens found when i try to start it up
[11:19] <bimberi> rudiz: System -> Administration -> Login Screen Setup
[11:19] <jfried> erUSUL, thank you i will try it
[11:19] <jjs01h> !tell jjs01h about fixres
[11:19] <nickrud> Phoul: that's all I did
[11:19] <rudiz> thnx bimberi
[11:19] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i yes but it is on the wrong side of the bar it was on the side that the network monitor was on
[11:19] <Phoul> Well it says no screensfound :(
[11:19] <nickrud> Phoul: what card do you have?
[11:19] <Phoul> umm
[11:19] <PuMpErNiCkLe> rudiz: system -> administration -> login screen setup -> automatic login
[11:19] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i do you know how i can get it on that side?
[11:19] <andre> ok im in the menu then what
[11:19] <Phoul> Geforce 4 MX 440
[11:20] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: right clikc it, and select move
[11:20] <PuMpErNiCkLe> bimberi: whoops... didn't notice you got that one already :o
[11:20] <|Bot|home> %\
[11:20] <|Bot|home> Where it is possible to send the message with the report on a mistake?
[11:20] <erUSUL> Phoul, do a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:20] <nickrud> Phoul: change that to nvidia-glx-legacy , instead of nvidia-glx
[11:20] <servjew_> hello channel. whats up with mplayer ? its not in the packages ?
[11:20] <Phoul> legacy?
[11:20] <jjs01h> andre: change the line: default 0 ... to something else
[11:20] <nickrud> Phoul: for ancient cards
[11:20] <crimsun> !info mplayer-586
[11:20] <ubotu> mplayer-586: (The Ultimate Movie Player For Linux), section multiverse/graphics, is extra. Version: 1:1.0-pre7cvs20050716-0.1ubuntu9.1 (breezy), Packaged size: 3526 kB, Installed size: 7940 kB
[11:20] <andre> ok
[11:20] <Phoul> My card isnt ancient is it?
[11:20] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i i tried that and it will not let me move it to the right side :-\
[11:20] <rexin> phoul... I JUST booted Xgl on a box with that same card about 10 min ago... it will work ;)
[11:20] <frank23> servjew_: it's in multiverse
[11:20] <nickrud> Phoul: lol, yes
[11:20] <obli> How would I go about getting all the buttons on my MX700 mouse working?
[11:21] <servjew_> oh, thanks :)
[11:21] <bimberi> PuMpErNiCkLe: but you had extra detail :)  (i'm on dapper and it's different to breezy)
[11:21] <frank23> !tell servjew_ about sources
[11:21] <Phoul> rexin what do i do then?
[11:21] <foampeace> when is windows going open source
[11:21] <jae_> wut does broken package mean in synaptic?
[11:21] <p01n7> python ./client.py
[11:21] <p01n7> whoops
[11:21] <nazgulwalker> are bin files are installable on ubuntu?
[11:21] <rudiz> ok thanks :)
[11:21] <p01n7> focus follows mouse XD
[11:21] <Phoul> rexin you there?
[11:21] <erUSUL> jae_, that a package has dependencies impossible to met
[11:21] <jae_> bin files are installable
[11:21] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: ok right clikc and unlock all the stuff over there, then try it.
[11:21] <nazgulwalker> thanks a lot
[11:21] <nickrud> jae_: that usually means that package has something it needs to run, but synaptic or apt can't find it.
[11:21] <Phoul> I really need to get it working :(
[11:22] <nickrud> Phoul: just switching to -legacy should work, all things being equal
[11:22] <rexin> beats me! im in here trying to figure out the same prob. I just booted off of a live kororaa CD... it worked beautifully so at least the drivers will work. ubunto tho....
[11:22] <rexin> same spot as you
[11:22] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: yup, that worked for me.  Unlock everything on the right, move it where you want it, and lock it all back down.
[11:22] <Phoul> nickrud how do i install the legacy drivers then
[11:22] <foampeace> how come they dont push windows to go open source
[11:22] <Phoul> apt-get nvidia-legecy?
[11:22] <jfried> erUSUL, 915resolution says "Intel Chipset detected..." "915resolution was unable to determine the cipset type"
[11:23] <obli> Anyone know how to see the local IP for the computer?
[11:23] <nickrud> Phoul: sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx-legacy
[11:23] <prower> Hello :> Does anyone else using KDE 3.5 have it crash frequently when logging out?
[11:23] <PuMpErNiCkLe> foampeace: People do.  It's not going to happen.
[11:23] <nickrud> jae_: and that's usually because you need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:23] <foampeace> PuMpErNiCkLe: but thats a defeatus attitude :>
[11:24] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i thanks i got it :) :D
[11:24] <nickrud> obli: ifconfig | grep inet
[11:24] <mikeazorin> damn. sudo: can't open /var/run/sudo/mike/0: read-only file system
[11:24] <obli> thanks
[11:24] <aliquis> This wiki entry was about how to get rid of the annoying konqueror window after each try to auto mount no matter what if it succeed or not in (k)ubuntu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IvmanConfigAction.xml
[11:24] <PuMpErNiCkLe> foampeace: Yeah, well, I'm more optimistic about Wine and ReactOS.
[11:24] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: I would recommend you getting gnome-power-manager you can set it where when you close your laptop lid, it suspends to disk :) like in windows.
[11:24] <mikeazorin> ahh!! nothing can open.
[11:25] <foampeace> PuMpErNiCkLe: how so?
[11:25] <obli> also, how do I turn down the PC speaker? It's pretty annoying :(
[11:25] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i nice :) when do i install that from? synaptic?
[11:25] <Phoul> No screens found still
[11:25] <Phoul> Do i need to reboot?
[11:25] <mikeazorin> my entire linux hard drive has just become read-only
[11:25] <mikeazorin> please help
[11:25] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: yes, install it from synaptic.
[11:25] <foampeace> PuMpErNiCkLe: does reactOS pull it off using wine?
[11:25] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: then to start it, type in a terminal gnome-power-manager and right clikc on the icon that pops up to change the settings
[11:26] <nickrud> Phoul: if I were you, I'd edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf , change nvidia to nv (so X runs) and start over
[11:26] <Phoul> I dont know what i did wrong dude
[11:26] <Jimmey__> I followed that page's instructions for playing non-restricted formats, but it wasn't really any help
[11:26] <mikeazorin> i changed my sources.list from breezy to dapper, did sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, but halfway through installing my file system became readonly
[11:26] <PuMpErNiCkLe> foampeace: ReactOS is a separate project.  They share a lot with the Wine devs, but unlike Wine, they want a complete OSS Windows reimplementation, not just a compatibility layer for other OSes.
[11:26] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: If your laptop is supported for suspend under linux, it should work.  Mine did !
[11:26] <nickrud> Phoul: heh. if I counted the number of times I've said that, I'd be here for a while
[11:26] <Jimmey__> *restricted
[11:26] <Phoul> Umm how do i put my backup config onto my normel config?
[11:27] <Phoul> My backup is still good i belive
[11:27] <Phoul> I will try again with the backup
[11:27] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i where whoudl it be in the applications menu?
[11:27] <nickrud> Phoul: cd /etc/X11/xorg.conf ; sudo cp <backup> xorg.conf
[11:27] <mikeazorin> my entire filesystem has spontaneously become read only. can anyone help me>??
[11:27] <Phoul> Umm
[11:27] <nickrud> heh
[11:27] <nickrud> Phoul: cd /etc/X11/ ; sudo cp <backup> xorg.conf
[11:27] <Phoul> whats the backup file name?
[11:27] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: system >> power management
[11:28] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: system >> preferences >> power management
[11:28] <nickrud> Phoul: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will build you a new one. That's probably the easiest way.
[11:28] <mikeazorin> !!!! somebody bloody help me !!!!
[11:28] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, mikeazorin
[11:28] <PuMpErNiCkLe> mikeazorin: Um, wtf? O_O  That's quite the bug.  You may be able to fix it by rebooting in recovery mode, though, or at least from a livecd.
[11:29] <servjew_> multiverse is enabled yet i still cannot find mplayer
[11:29] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i it says that i do not have a "DPMS enabled screensaver"?
[11:29] <erUSUL> mikeazorin, sudo mount -o remount rw /dev/hdxx ??
[11:29] <mikeazorin> okay, i'm restarting. i got mucho errors on the shutdown screen. even hardware was read-only or something
[11:29] <_jason> servjew_: did you apt-get update?
[11:29] <servjew_> i find only the mozilla plugin
[11:29] <frank23> servjew_: did you do an update? (reload in synaptic) are you running i386?
[11:29] <mikeazorin> i'm restarting
[11:29] <nickrud> servjew_: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto , that'll tell you which mplayer package to try
[11:29] <_jason> ubotu: tell servjew_ about mplayer
[11:30] <PuMpErNiCkLe> mikeazorin: good luck o_O
[11:30] <Phoul> brb
[11:30] <servjew_> i did an update when i first installed, but that might be it, i may have added the repositories after updating, ill go try that.
[11:30] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: hm, do you have  a screensaver installed?
[11:30] <mikeazorin> !!!
[11:30] <ubotu> mikeazorin: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:30] <nickrud> remount read only, I've never been there, thank god
[11:30] <mikeazorin> my harddrive just broke, while i was running linux
[11:30] <jadaz87> volcom_b0i it is probably on random let me see
[11:30] <mikeazorin> maybe a head crash or something, but the hd's a gonner
[11:30] <mikeazorin> OUCH!@!!!!
[11:31] <obli> ok, muting the PC speaker through the sound mixer doesn't do shit, how do I kill it?
[11:31] <fluxt> it seems my xscreensaver password box has been themed by ubuntu. how do i remove this?
[11:31] <PuMpErNiCkLe> mikeazorin: ouch, hardware failure is the worst >.<
[11:31] <mikeazorin> it happened in the middle of me using linux
[11:31] <foampeace> PuMpErNiCkLe: can reactos be like linux?
[11:31] <nickrud> obli: you can use xset to set up the system bell (pc speaker)
[11:32] <PuMpErNiCkLe> foampeace: ReactOS is just an attempt to recreate windows NT.
[11:32] <mikeazorin> i was just doing what-not then my downloads crashed, and errors started happening. nothing would load, and things that would would give errors that their temp dir's were corrupted
[11:32] <volcom_b0i> jadaz87: you might have to live with just the power monitor until dapper is released.
[11:32] <obli> ok
[11:32] <PuMpErNiCkLe> foampeace: Of course, it will have other stuff added to it that the devs think is good, but for now I think they're focusing on getting initial compatibility.
[11:33] <obli> awesome, it worked
[11:33] <obli> Now how do I get my extra mouse buttons to work?
[11:33] <nickrud> obli: add that to ~/.gnomerc to make it work every time
[11:34] <foampeace> PuMpErNiCkLe: its a good idea i must say, taking another approach like that...
[11:34] <bimberi> !mousebuttons
[11:34] <ubotu> mousebuttons is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[11:34] <obli> what does ~ signify? home dir?
[11:34] <PuMpErNiCkLe> obli: yup
[11:34] <nickrud> obli: yes
[11:34] <bimberi> obli: affirmative
[11:34] <Phoul> umm i tried sudo dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:34] <nickrud> obli: try cd ~
[11:34] <Phoul> And it says its not a correct command kinda thingy
[11:34] <obli> I can't find any .gnomerc file :(
[11:35] <nickrud> Phoul: no space between dpkg & -reconfigure
[11:35] <PuMpErNiCkLe> foampeace: Definitely.  It's even given Linux a few cool things, like complete NTFS support.
[11:35] <obli> is it like autostart on windows?
[11:35] <nickrud> obli: create it :)
[11:35] <_jason> obli: create it
[11:35] <Phoul> ohh
[11:35] <obli> just one command for ever line?
[11:35] <obli> *every
[11:35] <nickrud> obli: yes
[11:35] <PuMpErNiCkLe> foampeace: Not entirely native - they're using some Windows DLLs, iirc - but it's still nice.

[11:36] <cafuego> Kr4t05: Don't paste here
[11:36] <nickrud> Kr4t05: 1 or 2 lines,  ok

[11:36] <Phoul> pcsi?
[11:37] <PuMpErNiCkLe> foampeace: For it to be much use by itself, yeah.  Right now, they're working on the driver/kernel interface.

[11:37] <Phoul> ohh
[11:37] <cafuego> Kr4t05: People do if you ask them. Just pasting here will only lead to a kick and/or ban. And then _nobpdy_ can help.

[11:38] <fluxt> i tried \# .. no error but the colour is purple instead of 606060 PuMpErNiCkLe p01n7
[11:39] <jfried> PuMpErNiCkLe, and what for a driver do i need to install?... well ok i have a resolution of 1024x768 because xorg uses the vesa driver... but on my tft that does not look very nice ;-)

[11:42] <cjmguitar> I installed Ubuntu and booted it with LILO it runs through the boot process and then comes to mount:mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: no such file or directory. then I get nothing Help plz.
[11:42] <_jason> mar1us: what other applications?
[11:42] <nickrud> bimberi: yeah, I had '6 weeks of delay, vs 5 years of people using their native language? no brainer'
[11:42] <frank23> foampeace: well you could try some of the cpu and ram tests
[11:43] <mar1us> opera, folding@home, source dedicated server..
[11:43] <foampeace> frank23: i can just check the website
[11:43] <mar1us> I don't know how to do it generally... :'(
[11:43] <aeolist> marlus, i am not sure that feature is supported yet
[11:43] <bimberi> nickrud: can i pm you?
[11:43] <frank23> foampeace: the mersenne is a good one.
[11:43] <nickrud> bimberi: sure, anytime
[11:43] <aeolist> marlus, search the wiki

[11:43] <frank23> foampeace: some may not work at all but at least one ram test should
[11:43] <fluxt> PuMpErNiCkLe, p01n7, the best i found for x11 colours was: http://www.vanderlee.com/tut_fm_colors.html .. and i'm just going to use those :)
[11:43] <mar1us> where is that?
[11:44] <cjmguitar> I installed Ubuntu and booted it with LILO it runs through the boot process and then comes to mount:mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: no such file or directory. then I get nothing Help plz.
[11:44] <frank23> foampeace: that would tell you if your cpu and ram are stable or not
[11:44] <p01n7> fluxt, good luck
[11:44] <aeolist> marlus, suprisingly enough, it's at http://wiki.ubuntu.com
[11:44] <fluxt> p01n7, they work
[11:44] <mar1us> ah... sorry guys..
[11:44] <fladd> hi everyone, is anyone using emacs with preview-latex?
[11:45] <powder> marlus, you will need to add the plf repo to your sources.list in order to get Opera
[11:45] <OmegaAlpha> anyone use the Nicotine program?

[11:46] <PuMpErNiCkLe> fluxt: cool :)
[11:46] <aeolist> marlus, opera sucks, but if that's your poison, the wiki has a whole page devoted to it
[11:46] <jfried> PuMpErNiCkLe, i am going to bed now, i will try it tomorrow again to get it work... the intel webpage says that the gma 950 chipset works fine under many linux distribution... lol
[11:46] <frank23> majd: that's another distrubution I think. or are you talking about xgl?
[11:46] <Phoul> nickrud you ther?
[11:46] <cjmguitar> I installed Ubuntu and booted it with LILO it runs through the boot process and then comes to mount:mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: no such file or directory. then I get nothing Help plz.
[11:46] <powder> yes, opera sucks :)
[11:46] <Phoul> It still says no screens found
[11:46] <PuMpErNiCkLe> jfried: It may be the i810 one...
[11:47] <PuMpErNiCkLe> jfried: http://ftp.x.org/pub/X11R7.0/doc/html/manindex4.html
[11:47] <jfried> opera is very cool ;-)
[11:47] <k31th> wtf this ubuntu install is wacky
[11:47] <cjmguitar> I installed Ubuntu and booted it with LILO it runs through the boot process and then comes to mount:mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: no such file or directory. then I get nothing Help plz.
[11:47] <k31th> it wont load amarok for a stART
[11:47] <cjmguitar> I installed Ubuntu and booted it with LILO it runs through the boot process and then comes to mount:mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: no such file or directory. then I get nothing Help plz.
[11:47] <nickrud> Phoul: can you paste the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log to a pastebin?
[11:47] <cjmguitar> I installed Ubuntu and booted it with LILO it runs through the boot process and then comes to mount:mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: no such file or directory. then I get nothing Help plz.
[11:47] <Phoul> no...
[11:47] <fluxt> cjmguitar, don't spam
[11:47] <jfried> PuMpErNiCkLe, well i tried it with i810 but it does not work...
[11:47] <Phoul> Im in bash -_-
[11:47] <PuMpErNiCkLe> jfried: k, I'll keep looking
[11:47] <cjmguitar> well can someone plz help me since i cant get tech support anywhere else for ubuntu
[11:48] <mar1us> aerolist; I've been using windows for years and have finally made a (I think large) step out into a new world.. I'd like to at least keep my mouse gestures, your mozilla firefox is not all that good :-P
[11:48] <PuMpErNiCkLe> cjmguitar: Just out of curiosity, why are you using lilo?  Ubuntu ships with Grub.
[11:48] <powder> cjmguitar, Ubuntu uses GRUB not LILO
[11:48] <FliesLikeABrick> marlus firefox has mouse gestures if you take 30 seconds to install a plugin
[11:48] <fluxt> cjmguitar, what did you do to the system?
[11:48] <cjmguitar> well grub wouldnt work, and lilo came with the ubuntu cd also
[11:48] <Phoul> screw it i will do this later when i have more time
[11:48] <Phoul> Thanks for the help
[11:48] <Phoul> :)
[11:48] <mar1us> hehe okay..
[11:48] <cjmguitar> my computer tech at school told me he used lilo when i told him grub wouldnt work
[11:49] <mar1us> time's ticking, I don't see it :P No, I'm really new to all tihs
[11:49] <powder> why wouldn't GRUB work?
[11:49] <celerex> if i get the Breezy install cds, can i switch the package lists to drapper and install that or do i need to get a drapper install cd?
[11:49] <cjmguitar> and he cant help me with this problem because he is specialized in only windows
[11:49] <aeolist> marlus, ffs i dont fly or have anything to do with aviation... quit the joke... and the fox has mouse gestures as an extention
[11:49] <fluxt> cjmguitar, so you've never had a working ubuntu install?
[11:49] <FliesLikeABrick> mar1us  it is called all-in-one gestures
[11:49] <cjmguitar> i dont know why it wouldnt work, i couldnt dual boot
[11:49] <pbransford> anyone know about freespace2? I'm wondering if there is anything under linux that can open/extract .vp files (the game has an iculus port)
[11:49] <Klick_> hey all, xrandr says i have the ability to rotate my screen, but whenever i issue the command i get this error  Major opcode of failed request:  153 (RANDR)  any ideas why?
[11:49] <cjmguitar> it wouldnt let me install in the mbr of the first drive
[11:49] <anakronis> mar1us: you can get an extension for firefox that gives you mouse gestures. the extension is slow and crappy, but still...
[11:49] <FliesLikeABrick> cjmguitar  have you googled at all? it sounds like a problem that perhaps others have had
[11:49] <cjmguitar> yes i have
[11:50] <cjmguitar> none of my google results have helped
[11:50] <mar1us> haha.. I thought all linux-users skydive
[11:50] <cjmguitar> i got it to boot now
[11:50] !lilo:*! Hi all. I need help translating some sentences from English to French, in a bit of a hurry, from someone who speaks both languages fluently. Thanks!
[11:50] <Kr4t05> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10311 <--- This happens everytime I try to run an OpenGL game, including Doom3.
[11:50] <cjmguitar> but it ends in the middle of the boot process
[11:50] !lilo:*! (please message me :)
[11:50] <fluxt> cjmguitar, so the problem has arose at the point in time you install lilo correct?
[11:50] <fluxt> arisen
[11:50] <cjmguitar> well i just installed ubuntu
[11:50] <cjmguitar> never used it before
[11:50] <cjmguitar> grub wouldnt boot it
[11:50] <cjmguitar> so i used lilo
[11:51] <cjmguitar> lilo will boot it but it ends in the middle
[11:51] <fluxt> grub wouldn't boot  ubuntu or windows or both?
[11:51] <bjornkri> mar1us: if you really want Opera and haven't seen it already: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser
[11:51] <mar1us> okay, so I guess I don't need opera, but I'd still like to run a source dedicated server.. www.steampowered.com - it's also made for linux, oh joy?
[11:51] <frank23> Kr4t05: you need 3d drivers. do you have a ati or nvidia card?
[11:51] <kridunink> i am having trouble playing sound on xine. sound used to work then i installed xine and now it does't work. can any help?
[11:51] <cjmguitar> well i tried installing it to my mbr and it is still bringing up the regular NTLDR
[11:51] <cjmguitar> and only giving windows boot options
[11:51] <fluxt> cjmguitar, grub wouldn't boot  ubuntu or windows or both?
[11:51] <anakronis> mar1us; by all means, use opera. i do, i think it is mostly a lot better than the competition (and faster)
[11:52] <powder> cjmguitar, check this out:  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24113
[11:52] <cjmguitar> so i installed GAG boot loader to selectit
[11:52] <Kr4t05> frank23: NVidia, and I was sure that I had installed them. (I'm on Dapper Flight 5, so it may not work)
[11:52] <mar1us> yay :)
[11:52] <cjmguitar> and installed LILO on the new ubuntu parytition
[11:52] <everton137> Hi, have someone configure webcan on AMSN behind a router?  I found on FAQ that I have the port forwarding page open. What does this mean?
[11:52] <mar1us> does it use as much memory as it does in windows?
[11:52] <anakronis> mar1us; you can get the package straight off opera.no
[11:52] <frank23> Kr4t05: glxinfo | grep direct   will tell you if they are working
[11:52] <cjmguitar> and now half through the boot it quits
[11:52] <fluxt> cjmguitar, grub wouldn't boot  ubuntu or windows or both?
[11:52] <mar1us> I know, but it doesn't open like a normal windows-installer would have
[11:52] <erUSUL> Kr4t05, have you see a line like this 'Load    "glx"' in your xorg.conf
[11:52] <cjmguitar> only windows
[11:53] <cjmguitar> it wouldnt bring up GRUB when i turned on my pc
[11:53] <anakronis> save the file, then dpkg -i opera<rest of name>.deb
[11:53] <cjmguitar> it would bott regulary to windows
[11:53] <anakronis> then it fails, so you do an apt-get -f install
[11:53] <aeolist> marlus, what are you whining about?
[11:53] <powder> lol
[11:53] <mar1us> dpkg?
[11:53] <anakronis> and you read the operabrowser-wiki for the rest of it
[11:53] <bjornkri> mar1us, anakronis: I take it you're both norwegian?
[11:53] <mar1us> I have no idea..
[11:53] <anakronis> mar1us: oh, okay. start out with the ubuntu documentation. help.ubuntu.com
[11:53] <mar1us> yup
[11:53] <Kr4t05> erUSUL, yes.
[11:53] <anakronis> bjornkri; heh, yea
[11:53] <bjornkri> Well, that explains it. ;)
[11:53] <anakronis> :)
[11:54] <mar1us> RTFM I gues.. ?
[11:54] <cjmguitar> so does anyone know why my boot is quitting half way?
[11:54] <anakronis> mar1us: yes, you need to know what dpkg is :)
[11:54] <fluxt> cjmguitar, do you have multiple hard drives?
[11:54] <Kr4t05> frank32: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"
[11:54] <smellican> is there a way to get transset/xcompmgr to remember your transparency settings on different apps?
[11:54] <IdleOne> marlu RTFM is not an acceptable answer in this channel
[11:54] <frank23> Kr4t05: what does glxinfo | grep direct give you?
[11:54] <anakronis> bjornkri: a little patriotism goes a long way =)
[11:54] <cjmguitar> it says Tardet filesystem doesnt have /sbin/init
[11:54] <aeolist> marlus, you are on the right track there... starting with a few new vocabulary entries, yay
[11:54] <erUSUL> Kr4t05, video card, drivers?
[11:54] <Kr4t05> frank32: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"
[11:54] <mar1us> :D
[11:54] <cjmguitar> yes i have 2 scsi hard drives and 2 ide
[11:55] <mar1us> idleone, I only said it cuz that's the feeling I got
[11:55] <Kr4t05> erUSUL: Nvidia 6200, and yes, I installed my drivers.
[11:55] <fluxt> cjmguitar, perhaps you install grub onto the wrong hard disk during the install
[11:55] <bjornkri> anakronis: yeah I was about to say that Opera's biggest merit was that it's Norwegian... and unless you're one too or a norskophile that doesn't mean much :P
[11:55] <IdleOne> marlus I understand what your saying :)
[11:55] <powder> cjmguitar, you may have to set boot priority in your BIOS to whichever drive GRUB was installed to
[11:55] <mar1us> hehe ok
[11:55] <cjmguitar> no i thought that 2 and reinstalled grub and ubuntu again making sure it was correct] 
[11:55] <IdleOne> marlus have you registered with nickserv?
[11:55] <frank23> Kr4t05: your nvidia driver is not working though
[11:55] <anakronis> bjornkri: hehe. why do you dislike it?
[11:55] <mar1us> but it's not just taht it's in norwegian, it's the best browser I've experienced for windows..
[11:55] <fluxt> powder, pehaps it's foobar now :)
[11:55] <bjornkri> norskophile... is that a word?
[11:56] <mar1us> not yet it isn't
[11:56] <bjornkri> anakronis: I don't dislike it at all, just think there's other stuff that's better
[11:56] <powder> fluxt, true :)
[11:56] <fluxt> powder, well too fobar than i care to fix (the hard way) anyway
[11:56] <cjmguitar> but it is booting fine from lilo now, just quitting half way, so the prob isnt the bootloader
[11:56] <anakronis> bjornkri: for example? if theres something out there I havent tried im always up for it
[11:56] <fiveiron> any idea why i might not be able to chmod on a mounted drive that is mounted rw
[11:56] <bjornkri> used it alot a few years back actually, around the time they started using ads.
[11:56] <cjmguitar> something with the linux os
[11:56] <erUSUL> Kr4t05, with my drivers you mean nv or nvidia propietary ones? if the later which version the one in the repos or a dl from nvidia site?
[11:56] <bjornkri> anakronis: firefox
[11:57] <bjornkri> anakronis: yeah, I know, so unoriginal...
[11:57] <anakronis> bjornkri: ah, yes, the ads. i couldnt bear using it when it wasnt free. the ads took all the fun out of it
[11:57] <fluxt> cjmguitar, not having a grub boot loader screams being installed on the wrong drive... ?
[11:57] <mar1us> but honestly people, throw me a fricken bone here.. what's so much better with this ubuntu than windows?
[11:57] <anakronis> bjornkri: hehe. i use firefox and opera interchangably, since opera is still a donkey about gmail and some other sites
[11:57] <Kr4t05> erUSUL: nvidia propietary from the repos. Should I attemp to compile and install the new ones?
[11:57] <fluxt> marlus, it's free for one
[11:57] <fluxt> marlus, *as in beer
[11:57] <aeolist> marlus, it depends... why did you start using it?
[11:57] <fluxt> :)
[11:57] <kridunink> can anyone help with sound issues?
[11:57] <cjmguitar> fluxt:  i installed it on the correct drive and it didnt work, but with lilo it is
[11:57] <IdleOne> marlus this is the place to talk about which OS is better..try #ubuntu-offtopic to talk about that
[11:57] <mar1us> I heard so much good stuff about it
[11:58] <IdleOne> isnt*
[11:58] <bjornkri> mar1us: it's way cool in a nerdy sort of way and all the pain and suffering makes it more satisfying.
[11:58] <cjmguitar> and now it boots but quits half way giving me an error message
[11:58] <bjornkri> :P
[11:58] <mar1us> I like bjornkri's explanation
[11:58] <erUSUL> Kr4t05, i do not know :(. is there any error in  /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:58] <anakronis> haha
[11:58] <erUSUL> ?
[11:58] <aeolist> marlus, if you have ever programmed just a hello world example, it's better to work in linux, it makes understanding and tinking with the insides of the puter much more easy/fun/exciting
[11:58] <powder> cjmguitar, will LILO boot you into windows but not ubuntu?
[11:58] <frank23> Kr4t05: did you do the  sudo nvidia-glx-config enable  step?
[11:58] <fiveiron> any idea why i might not be able to chmod on a mounted drive that is mounted rw
[11:58] <fluxt> cjmguitar, have you tried googling lilo ? i don't know stuff all about lilo now i've forgotten about it's existance
[11:58] <anakronis> ubuntu isnt suffering anymore. slackware in 1995 was suffering ;)
[11:58] <cjmguitar> yes i have
[11:58] <bjornkri> hehe
[11:59] <Kr4t05> frank23, maybe that's a good idea.
[11:59] <cjmguitar> but its not a problem with LILO
[11:59] <mar1us> after reading the fuckin manual for a few hours and trying out stuff about how to read insanely long documents using spacebar and backspace :-P
[11:59] <IdleOne> marluis watch the language please
[11:59] <aeolist> marlus, moreover it's far more stable and fast than windows, and there there is apt-get... you just issue a small command and download the latest versions of all the proggies you have installed... which is awesome
[11:59] <cjmguitar> LILO boots it fine, but it is telling me stuff is missing from the /root when i just installed it
[11:59] <IdleOne> marlus
[11:59] <cwillu_xp> is there any way to make a gnome panel not stay on top of other windows?  (I'm not talking about autohide)
[11:59] <smellican> marlus, if you can't figure out ubuntu, you are the super noob..  it has got to be the easiest linux distro I've ever seen
[11:59] <anakronis> and it has the BSOD-screensaver
[11:59] <anakronis> which really floats my boat
[11:59] <smellican> go back to windows lol
[12:00] <powder> cjmguitar, how did you partition the drive?
[12:00] <bjornkri> it's mar1us with a 'one'... took me a while to figure that one out.
[12:00] <fluxt> cjmguitar, my guess is lilo has no idea about the kernel you're trying to boot or the system itself
[12:00] <mar1us> thanx :)
[12:00] <Kr4t05> eccf: Broken packages
