[12:00] <rysiek|pl> zF: sudo apt-cache search mplayer | grep mozilla? :)
[12:00] <ubushine> Superslash, you have breezy installed?
[12:00] <fernashes> zF: should be "mozilla-mplayer"
[12:00] <zF> fernashes, thanks
[12:00] <Superslash> ubushine: no, not yet
[12:01] <fernashes> zF: did a search in Synaptic
[12:01] <Superslash> i'm trying to set it up to dualboot with xp-pro
[12:01] <zF> That's what I thought, what repo is it under?
[12:01] <ubushine> Superslash, so what then? the livecd doesn't see it?
[12:01] <mwe> zF: multiverse
[12:01] <Superslash> no, installcd doesnt see the partitions. all it sees is my hdd as a single 200gig unformatted hdd
[12:01] <ubushine> Superslash, please address my nickname when you respond
[12:01] <h36sa> Superslash: is it sata?
[12:02] <Superslash> h36sa: in xp though, i can see that i've got unformatted space partitioned off, and a 130gig NTFS partition. Yeah, sata
[12:02] <shiv> which linux-headers do I install for centrino?
[12:02] <ubuntu_> hey can anyone tell me which software can run h264 video files
[12:02] <h36sa> Superslash: get a newer livecd.. the sata stuff was kinda sketchy for a bit
[12:02] <Superslash> ubushine: sorry, hit tab by mistake and finished that in the other editbox >.<
[12:02] <Superslash> h36sa: its not a livecd it's an actual 5.10 breezy badger install cd
[12:03] <h36sa> I had trouble getting gentoo 2005.0 to find my sata drive but I finally got it
[12:03] <ubushine> Superslash, go with the live cd and install gparted if it's not there (apt get gparted) and try to format that 80gig drive from there
[12:03] <zF> I didn't have multiverse, that did it, though.
[12:03] <Superslash> ubushine: so go livecd and then use gparted to set up linux partitions in the unformatted space?
[12:03] <zF> !repositories
[12:03] <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
[12:04] <ubushine> Superslash, or if you're adventurous try fdisk or cfdisk. command line utilites.
[12:04] <h36sa> Superslash: you still won't see them with the install cd
[12:04] <ubushine> Superslash, yes. set up partitions from livecd using gparted then try the install
[12:04] <h36sa> Superslash: you're gonna need to install from the livecd
[12:04] <h36sa> ubushine: that won't work
[12:04] <ubushine> h36sa, oh?
[12:04] <Superslash> h36sa: and that will not screw up my NTFS partition?
[12:04] <Tiberian> ompaul, sorry was my fault :P~~~ thanks xD
[12:04] <h36sa> Superslash: shouldn't
[12:05] <Superslash> h36sa: well i've already tried everything with installcd's, may as well give another livecd a try
[12:05] <h36sa> Superslash: you might be able to pass some boot options to it to load sata stuff
[12:05] <h36sa> I'm not sure
[12:05] <ubushine> h36sa, i've installed breezy from to sata drives by resizing them in gparted
[12:06] <h36sa> ubushine: as soon as you boot the installcd it's still not gonna recognize the partition table if it doesn't now
[12:06] <h36sa> the switched from libsata to libata I think
[12:06] <ubushine> h36sa, oh? i set up a friends pc which dual-boots XP and ubuntu on a large 250Gig sata drive
[12:06] <HE1> Hi, I need help with installing a driver for Ndiswrapper, as im new its really frustrating to do something simple. I would like to Change the directory in the terminal to look in a folder i have names driver, that contains the driver. ANd then what do i type to tell ndiswrapper to install the inf file that i want in there
[12:06] <HE1> Thanks :P
[12:07] <Superslash> h36sa ubushine: if it helps either of you any, i'm doing everything by this guys tutorial: http://www.hezardastan.org/breezy_xp_dualboot/en/breezyinstall.html#installbreezy
[12:07] <h36sa> ubushine: did you use the livecd/dvd though?
[12:07] <ITSa341> Good evening everyone! :-)
[12:07] <NickGarvey> good evening ITSa341
[12:07] <IdleOne> evening ITSa341
[12:07] <fernashes> hey ITSa341
[12:07] <ubushine> h36sa, used the livecd to resize partitions and then the install cd to install. i believe. or the install cd to do both
[12:07] <ITSa341> IdleOne   I got it working
[12:07] <servers> how much swap space do I need?

[12:07] <azurehuesofblue> in xchat can I disable it showing me people comming and going so it's just chat?  I cant find the option :-/
[12:08] <IdleOne> ITSa341>  wtg :)
[12:08] <fernashes> azurehuesofblue:  it's under preferences
[12:08] <h36sa> ubushine: dunno then. I've only done gentoo on a sata drive and I had problems
[12:08] <ITSa341> IdleOne  would have been easier if the author had given a complete list of dependencies
[12:08] <Ads_> Hi guys, can anyone explain why nearly all my ram is being used up?
[12:08] <h36sa> HE1: I can help you if you've got a copy of the right windows inf/sys files for your network card
[12:09] <flax^^> ok, i downloaded drivers for my graphic card, ati-driver-installer-8.23.7-i386.run , install? how?
[12:09] <azurehuesofblue> fernashes could you show me the exact path, maybe I just keep missing it or something.
[12:09] <HE1> h36sa , yes please
[12:09] <ITSa341> IdleOne  would have been easier if the author had given a complete list of dependencies
[12:09] <Bollenator> flax^^, did you have luck with the hard drive?
[12:09] <HE1> I have the correct driver here
[12:09] <h36sa> HE1: modprobe -r ndiswrapper && ndiswrapper -i inffile.inf && modprobe ndiswrapper
[12:09] <IdleOne> ITSa341>  you should add a wiki page for GPS now that you know how to do it :)
[12:10] <ITSa341> IdleOne  I was already thinking that.
[12:10] <Superslash> ubushine: one other question while the livecd downloads (cant hurt to try), why the hell would opensuse take over half an hour to go from one page to the next during an install?
[12:10] <flax^^> nope, havent tried yet
[12:10] <ITSa341> IdleOne saved my notes just for that reason
[12:10] <zF> How do you select all and paste/copy in nano?
[12:10] <Ads_> Hi guys, can anyone explain why nearly all my ram is being used up?
[12:10] <tonyyarusso> Has anyone tried using ndiswrapper for a driver other than wireless?  (ie. card reader)
[12:10] <h36sa> Superslash: because it was installing the os without telling you anything?
[12:10] <IdleOne> zF>  with the mouse. highlight and right click
[12:11] <h36sa> tonyyarusso: 10/100 cards work with it
[12:11] <h36sa> I doubt a card reader would though
[12:11] <flax^^> ati-driver-installer-8.23.7-i386.run , install? how?
[12:11] <tonyyarusso> servers: The usual recommendation is 2x your RAM for swap.
[12:11] <ubushine> Superslash, opensuse -- never tried. tried mepis, damn small, knoppix, elive (great distro), slax
[12:11] <Sterk> hey guys
[12:11] <Bollenator> flax^^, 'cuz if you have characters that show up in Windows but not in Linux, you can change the character set Linux uses on the drive in the fstab file
[12:11] <h36sa> 2x your ram is probably WAY too much swap
[12:11] <r0bin> ... Why is Internet Explorer 6 running _perfectly_ in wine? WHY? WTF.
[12:11] <NickGarvey> wine is just that good r0bin
[12:11] <tonyyarusso> h36sa: Are there any sites listing what would or providing support for that?
[12:11] <NickGarvey> or that bad if you want to word it that way
[12:11] <Mnemic> !sound
[12:11] <r0bin> NickGarvey:  This is not computing in my tiny mind.
[12:11] <ubotu> I guess sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[12:12] <NickGarvey> :-P
[12:12] <Superslash> h36sa: no, it uses Yast as a graphical installer, it was asking me if i accepted the terms of service, and when i clicked next (after checking yes) it spent over half an hour loading the next screen
[12:12] <h36sa> tonyyarusso: I'm sure there are
[12:12] <servers> how much swap space do I need?
[12:12] <h36sa> Superslash: never tried suse
[12:12] <flax^^> Bollenator, ok, how exactly?
[12:12] <NickGarvey> I used SUSE
[12:12] <tonyyarusso> servers: I've found it's more than I use so far too, but that's what I saw recommended a lot, so I figure it comes in in case of emergency.
[12:12] <NickGarvey> decent distro
[12:12] <NickGarvey> !es
[12:12] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:12] <tonyyarusso> h36sa: I'll look; was wondering if you were aware of any in particular.
[12:13] <Sterk> trying to walk through the xgl guide on the ubuntu forums and am having trouble with this command "sudo apt-get install compiz xserver-xgl libgl1-mesa xserver-xorg libglitz-glx1 compiz-gnome" i get couldnt find package compiz
[12:13] <Superslash> *headdesk it all then
[12:13] <NickGarvey> 1.5x your ram is the recommended swap right?
[12:13] <Ads_> someone help please, nearly all my ram is being hogged on my laptop, i know 256mb isn';t much but it didn't do this in windows and i had tons of crap running in my windows desktop
[12:13] <h36sa> I don't
[12:13] <h36sa> NickGarvey: you don't need 1.5gb of swap
[12:13] <IdleOne> Sterk>  compiz is for dapper iirc
[12:13] <NickGarvey> ha true
[12:13] <Bollenator> flax^^, in fstab, put "utf8" in the options part of the line for your extra hard drive
[12:13] <h36sa> Ads_: don't worry about it
[12:13] <Bollenator> like this: /dev/hda2       /mnt/share      vfat    user,auto,utf8,umask=000        0       0
[12:13] <IdleOne> Thug-N-Me>  please dont spam
[12:13] <Ads_> h36sa: don't worry about it?
[12:14] <tonyyarusso> Sterk: You might try #ubuntu-xgl if you get nothing here.
[12:14] <Sterk> IdleOne> not following
[12:14] <h36sa> Ads_: go type free in the console and tell me what it says on the +/- buffers/cache line
[12:14] <Bollenator> I had the same prob with an accented "e" in a folder name; this works perfectly
[12:14] <Bollenator> HIH
[12:14] <metalhedd> I cant et my webcam wirking with pwc.  dmesg shows pwc found the camera but theres no picture.
[12:14] <IdleOne> Sterk>  you installed ubuntu 5.10?
[12:14] <Sterk> tonyyarusso: thanks
[12:14] <Ads_> h36sa: ok hang on
[12:14] <IdleOne> tonyyarusso> compiz works on breezy also?
[12:15] <Ads_> h36sa: it says -/+ buffers/cache:     136020     104588
[12:15] <tonyyarusso> IdleOne: What?
[12:15] <azurehuesofblue> where under prefs in xchat can I disable it showing me people comming and going?  I cant find it! :-(
[12:15] <IdleOne> tonyyarusso>  nm
[12:15] <tonyyarusso> 'k.
[12:15] <IdleOne> :)
[12:15] <h36sa> Ads_: so only 136mb are really being used. the other 104mb is used as a cache to save time/disk access
[12:15] <Sterk> IdleOne> not sure,
[12:15] <h36sa> Ads_: windows wants to keep memory free, linux wants to keep it full..
[12:15] <Sterk> IdleOne> its the newest stable, whatever that is
[12:16] <h36sa> I have 2gb ram and I use a lot of it sometimes
[12:16] <Ads_> h36sa: so what does this mean >> Mem:           234        229          5
[12:16] <Sterk> IdleOne> yes, just checked, it is 5.1
[12:16] <jalvarezrom> hello all
[12:16] <Ads_> h36sa: 5mb free wtf is that right?
[12:16] <h36sa> 234mb total, 229 in use, 5 free
[12:16] <misterii> hey everyboodyy
[12:16] <IdleOne> Sterk>  ok but I think you are better off asking in #ubuntu-xgl
[12:17] <jalvarezrom> anyone knows how to change an usb disk label???
[12:17] <h36sa> Ads_: yeah but you can't count buffers and caches as used disk.. they'll get flushed out if you need more memory for programs
[12:17] <h36sa> that's why I said just don't worry about it
[12:17] <h36sa> my ram is almost always all in use :P
[12:17] <Ads_> h36sa: so why is my system so sluggish?
[12:17] <misterii> I'm trying to get my es1869 soundcard to work on Ubuntu. How? N00b terms, plz
[12:18] <Sterk> IdleOne> cool, in there now
[12:18] <h36sa> Ads_: probably because you're running a bunch of crap you don't need. what are the hardware specs and what desktop environment are you using?
[12:18] <flax^^> Bollenator, how do i edit the fstab? its read-only
[12:18] <IdleOne> Sterk>  ok. hope they can help you out more then I could :)
[12:18] <Bollenator> probably have to use: $ sudo nano /etc/fstab
[12:18] <dibblego> I create a user during install, and every time I use sudo, I must use that user's password - how cna I use some other user's password?
[12:18] <jdprc06> i get a huge amount of errors when i open synaptic
[12:18] <Xe> hi guys. today the day came... I deleted windows. Now I'm trying to turn the free space into ext3 and merge it with the existing ext3 on the HD. When I use gparted to resize the partition it says that the max size cannot be more than what it already is... so its not picking up the free space. how do i fix this?
[12:18] <Ads_> h36sa: i've actually followed the guides on the forums and wiki to disable all unrelevant crap but it's not helped, i'm running breezy
[12:18] <metalhedd> I cant et my webcam wirking with pwc.  dmesg shows pwc found the camera but theres no picture.
[12:19] <h36sa> Xe: are they both logical or primary partitions?
[12:19] <h36sa> Xe: you might have the extended partition in the way
[12:19] <flax^^> how do i edit the fstab? its read-only...
[12:20] <Xe> how do i know if its extended or primary? i seem to have forgotten
[12:20] <Inf3ctedFX> Hello ppl

[12:21] <Ads_>   ,<<<< but it shows really slow and lags a lot and cpu goes mental even though fps rmainsaround 80 ish

[12:26] <mcquaid> is there a list of the reasons why dapper was delayed? i don't mind it being delayed just want to see if there's any potential showstopper that would make me hesitate on upgrading today
[12:26] <Ads_> h36sa: so like what other alternatives do i have because i am totally stuck with this annoying problem. :( atm it's all fine as i type but as soon as i fire up glxgears or something it slows down my system completey
[12:26] <smog> my iptables may be dropping your packets nick
[12:26] <NickGarvey> I'll check ethereal

[12:27] <misterii> somebody help me pleaaaaase.
[12:27] <ompaul> mcquaid search for delay on wiki.ubuntu.com it will explain something to you
[12:27] <RageMax> so does anyone know how to get mp3s playing with rhythmbox on dapper drake?

[12:27] <Bollenator> flax^^, wicked dude; no problem :D
[12:27] <mcquaid> thx thx and thx ;)
[12:27] <smog> ?
[12:27] <h36sa> Ads_: no I'm saying your desktop shouldn't be that slow
[12:27] <RageMax> Mnemic: xmms
[12:27] <misterii> I have breezy
[12:27] <fluxt> nvm
[12:27] <Ads_> h36sa: ok so leaving glxgears aside, why does firefox totally slow my comp down or gaim or even amsn for that matter
[12:27] <Mnemic> xmms? o0
[12:27] <samuel_> umm i used su -i now what?
[12:27] <flax^^> Bollenator, one more thing now :P codecs, how?
[12:27] <misterii> opaul, I have breezy
[12:27] <Mnemic> RageMax, ? o0
[12:28] <RageMax> Mnemic: apt-get install xmms , it's just like winamp
[12:28] <tonyyarusso> mcquaid: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-art/2006-March/000734.html
[12:28] <h36sa> gaim slows your comp down?
[12:28] <Mnemic> ohhh
[12:28] <Bollenator> flax^^, haha, that's a tricky one, too
[12:28] <Ads_> h36sa: yes
[12:28] <avu> mnemic: xmms is quite similar to winamp, try the beep media player for a slightly more modern looking fork
[12:28] <htrp> how do you hide desktop iconds?
[12:28] <htrp> !info xmms
[12:28] <quadra> [ !unload : no module with this name ] 
[12:28] <Ads_> h36sa: that isn'tthe only thing
[12:28] <avu> mnemic: (using gtk2 instead of gtk1)
[12:28] <ubotu> xmms: (Versatile X audio player that looks like Winamp), section sound, is optional. Version: 1.2.10+cvs20050209-2ubuntu2 (breezy), Packaged size: 979 kB, Installed size: 7216 kB
[12:28] <h36sa> haha.. significantly or what?
[12:28] <Stormx2> !info bluefish
[12:28] <quadra> [ !unload : no module with this name ] 
[12:28] <ubotu> bluefish: (gtk+ HTML editor), section universe/web, is optional. Version: 1.0.1-0ubuntu3 (breezy), Packaged size: 1335 kB, Installed size: 5988 kB
[12:28] <odez909> hi all
[12:28] <Ads_> h36sa: signigicantly
[12:28] <htrp> how do you hide desktop icons*?
[12:28] <Ads_> significantly*
[12:28] <flax^^> really tricky if your a njub :P
[12:28] <Bollenator> :D
[12:28] <h36sa> I mean.. your desktop isn't going to be quite as snappy and responsive as a clean xp install, but you should be able to do quite a bit of stuff at once without it really slowing down much
[12:29] <samuel_> I get ... You must be superuser (su) to run this script
[12:29] <NickGarvey> samuel_: sudo
[12:29] <h36sa> Ads_: maybe you're using a bad xorg driver or soemthing
[12:29] <NickGarvey> /ubotu tell samuel_ about sudo
[12:29] <mcquaid> thx for those links, i guess i was looking for specifics in what gave them pause, for example i read there were having problems with gnome-screensaver with switch user
[12:29] <IdleOne> !tell samuel_ about sudo
[12:29] <mcquaid> things like that iwas looking for
[12:29] <Xe> so i went into fdisk /dev/hda and it gave me a menu. how do i find out from that menu whether i have an extended partition?
[12:29] <Ads_> h36sa: well i don't know what other driver to use for my display......i do know however there is a linux driver available for my chipset but i don't have any idea how to install it
[12:29] <mcquaid> but i think i'll upgrade today anyways
[12:29] <NickGarvey> haha I'm stupid
[12:30] <Bollenator> flax^^, have you used Synaptic yet?
[12:30] <mcquaid> by a show of aye, how many here are on dapper?
[12:30] <IdleOne> NickGarvey>  nahh you just didnt know :)
[12:30] <h36sa> Ads_: are you using vesa?
[12:30] <NickGarvey> haha no but I did though
[12:30] <Ads_> h36sa: sorry lol whats vesa?
[12:30] <samuel_> thanks
[12:30] <NickGarvey> !vesa
[12:30] <NickGarvey> or not
[12:30] <Ads_> lol @ nick
[12:30] <Ads_> ty anyway
[12:30] <IdleOne> !tell Ads_  about vesa
[12:30] <Grark> odd. IdleOne, gnomebacker wasn't in synaptic
[12:31] <NickGarvey> smog: nmap did not show an open SSH port
[12:31] <IdleOne> Grark> gnomebaker
[12:31] <NickGarvey> smog only 113 and 9090
[12:31] <htrp> how do you hide desktop icons*?
[12:31] <h36sa> Ads_: what xorg driver are you using
[12:31] <MisterN> n8
[12:31] <NickGarvey> ah ha!
[12:31] <Grark> IdleOne, one little letter eh?
[12:31] <NickGarvey> it did work
[12:31] <smog> Hmm, how would I open up the ssh port?
[12:31] <Grark> :)
[12:31] <NickGarvey> !vesa
[12:31] <Grark> Thanks
[12:31] <NickGarvey> from memory, vesa is the default video driver used by 5.10 breezy. It supports a wide range of chipsets, but does not make use of your video card's acceleration architecture. To gain best performance, choose your card's specific driver by reconfiguring X: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'.Also check the manual at :http://www.x.org/X11R6.8.2/doc/manindex4.html
[12:31] <flax^^> Bollenator,  nope, i've read something 'bout it i think, cant recall though :P
[12:31] <IdleOne> Grark> Linux is picky with that hehe
[12:31] <Ads_> h36sa: how would i find that out? i forgot which one i am using...
[12:32] <NickGarvey> htrp: tried google?
[12:32] <Xe> is there a better tool than Gparted, that resembles partitionmagic more?
[12:32] <IdleOne> smog>  you need to forward the port on your router
[12:32] <h36sa> Ads_: read through /etc/X11/xorg.cfg
[12:32] <smog> ah, oh yeah. thanks idleone
[12:32] <h36sa> Ads_: it'll be in the middle
[12:33] <smog> Default ssh port is 22 correct?
[12:33] <tonyyarusso> Xe: There's also QTparted, not sure if it resembles PM or not (Probably not, since it works...I'm not bitter.)
[12:33] <IdleOne> smog>  yes
[12:33] <NickGarvey> htrp: http://gnometux.blogspot.com/2005/07/no-icons-on-desktop.html
[12:33] <Xe> thanks, will give it a shot
[12:33] <abdelbarie> hola
[12:33] <Ads_> h36sa: ok just a second
[12:33] <htrp> thanks

[12:33] <IdleOne> lamer
[12:34] <samuel_> ok now i used sudo -i and it worked, but now im not in the directory I want... it only has the folder bootstrap_settings
[12:34] <NickGarvey> samuel_: what are you trying to do?
[12:34] <avu> samuel_: sudo -i puts you in /root
[12:34] <samuel_> install something
[12:34] <samuel_> ok
[12:34] <samuel_> i need to get out of root
[12:34] <samuel_> and to the home folder
[12:35] <IdleOne> samuel_> what are you trying to install?
[12:35] <avu> samuel_: if you just want to execute one command as root, use sudo command, not sudo -i
[12:35] <samuel_> a sound theme
[12:35] <samuel_> ok
[12:35] <Ads_> h36sa: i've got it, it says         Driver		"sis"
[12:35] <h36sa> hmm that should be right
[12:35] <h36sa> try changing that to vesa and see if it helps.
[12:35] <JoaoSilva> hi, i'm from a LUG and we will be having a LIP in 2 months, and we are installing ubuntu by default. is there a way to automate the installation? or to create an image of a fully installed and customized system (for use in our university) and install from that image? were can we look for further info on this? thanks for your time :)
[12:36] <Ads_> h36sa: ok i will need to reboot i'll be back if it does/doesn't help :)
[12:36] <Jemt> Greetings. I need to replace 'string1' with 'string2' in several files in a directory. Is this possible using a simple command in the console?
[12:36] <Ads_> h36sa: ty for help btw
[12:36] <h36sa> also, try running top in a window and see what the cpu usage says when you open stuff, also see what the wait usage is when you copy a big file
[12:36] <NickGarvey> JoaoSilva: yes, try a LAN install
[12:36] <samuel_> ok so like this? sudo command sh install.sh
[12:36] <NickGarvey> JoaoSilva: I will check google, I have done this with my laptop though booting knoppix and reading into it I know you can install ubuntu with it if I recall
[12:36] <avu> jemt: sed -i 's/string1/string2/g' files
[12:37] <Bollenator> flax^^, I'd say try reading around in this wiki article: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:37] <samuel_> worked!
[12:37] <samuel_> sudo sh install.sh
[12:37] <Jemt> avu: Nifty. Thanks. What is the 's' ?
[12:37] <samuel_> thanks
[12:37] <IdleOne> NickGarvey>  JoaoSilva wants to make an iso of a fully configured ubuntu desktop ..and know how to do it
[12:37] <avu> jemt: 'substitude'
[12:37] <Jemt> avu: IC. Thank you very much :)
[12:38] <Xe> is it impossible to merge two primary partitions?
[12:38] <NickGarvey> oh
[12:38] <NickGarvey> well never mind then
[12:38] <NickGarvey> oo I see
[12:38] <IdleOne> JoaoSilva>  try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic I think someone should be able to help you out or point you in the right direction
[12:38] <dibblego> is it possible to take a snapshot of the drive image?
[12:39] <JoaoSilva> NickGarvey, IdleOne, thanks for the tips :)
[12:39] <IdleOne> JoaoSilva>  no problem hope it works out

[12:53] <buulian> does anyone know of how to transfer over to linux from windows while keeping my iTunes purchases? Is there any way to run iTunes on linux? Or should I just front the cash for a mac?
[12:54] <tonyyarusso> How to make Firefox wrap lines to fit in one window without horizontal scroll when opening plain-text files (ie. .log)?
[12:54] <ompaul> IdleOne, not him - some other ip
[12:54] <ompaul> IdleOne, not you dude
[12:54] <asylumius> Can someone point me to some documention on customizing Gnome in Ubuntu?
[12:54] <avu> buulian: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats#head-3b21b161513c49f26dac2aaca9afd8f64e21aaaa
[12:54] <jalvarezrom> moox,  thanks
[12:54] <IdleOne> ompaul>  yeah I just checked hehe thanks :)
[12:54] <tonyyarusso> buulian: I don't know how it deals with previous purchases, but something to check out:
[12:54] <tonyyarusso> !itunes
[12:54] <ubotu> from memory, itunes is a Mac OS/Windows app, but you can use SharpMusique in Linux instead (sudo apt-get install sharpmusique), and it works for all of the same things with the iTunes music store, libraries, etc.
[12:54] <svu> does anyone have notify-send working in ubuntu?
[12:55] <buulian> wait! so using SharpMusique, you can buy music too?
[12:55] <IdleOne> buulian>  seems so
[12:55] <tonyyarusso> buulian: Yeah, that should work now.
[12:56] <buulian> omg
[12:56] <avu> buulian: And you can play your purchased music in any player using gstreamer as a backend
[12:56] <buulian> now there's no reason to not switch to linux
[12:56] <thomas_> anyone got any idea why my mouse is so fast and the sens/accel control does absolutely nothin
[12:56] <buulian> so just put my music and videos on a dvd?

[12:56] <buulian> hows the support for the iPod?
[12:56] <IdleOne> !tell thomas_ about fixres
[12:57] <thomas_> i tried using my gettin stuff outta my old xorg.conf

[12:57] <IdleOne> !tell buulian about gtkpod
[12:57] <thomas_> the line for the reoslutions and refreshrate
[12:57] <buulian> oh- it's okay
[12:57] <thomas_> but it didnt take it well..
[12:57] <buulian> I know about it already
[12:57] <buulian> I was wondering if sharpmusique had that in it
[12:58] <buulian> OMG-

[12:58] <buulian> I am so happy

[01:14] <NickGarvey> hello
[01:14] <fdoosey> I'm a new convert to Linux
[01:14] <_jason> fdoosey: welcome
[01:14] <polpak> fdoosey, welcome in =)
[01:14] <fdoosey> I just trashed my Windows box at work
[01:15] <flax^^> sigh, my Gaim keeps disconnecting :(
[01:15] <IdleOne> fdoosey> welcome
[01:15] <_jason> fdoosey: well done
[01:15] <fdoosey> ****ing thing refused to recognize the domain...heh
[01:15] <IdleOne> fdoosey>  this a G rated channel ;)
[01:15] <azurehuesofblue> I did it cold turkey
[01:15] <polpak> fdoosey, Yeah, I ditched windows completely 7 months or so ago.. I don't use it at work, or at home
[01:15] <fdoosey> Anyway, I'm using a monitor that can handle a higher resolution than Ubuntu allows at the moment
[01:15] <NickGarvey> I'm using windows now
[01:15] <NickGarvey> (goes and hides in a cornor)
[01:15] <polpak> !resolution
[01:15] <ubotu> resolution is, like, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[01:15] <flax^^> i ditched win today to :)
[01:15] <fdoosey> I have it at home, my wife does too much photoshop stuff
[01:16] <fdoosey> Yeah, that's for Hoary
[01:16] <polpak> fdoosey, there's always the gimp
[01:16] <fdoosey> I'm on breezy I believe
[01:16] <freedom> for 3d acceleration i can a web ? xD
[01:16] <freedom> xD
[01:16] <_jason> fdoosey: that page will work, usually dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does the trick
[01:17] <fdoosey> OK, I'll try to follow it...I assume it requires a log out/in
[01:17] <polpak> freedom, ?
[01:17] <fdoosey> I am liking the Linux much more, very fast.
[01:17] <polpak> fdoosey, I'd suggest just doing the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg as _jason said
[01:17] <polpak> fdoosey, wait till dapper comes out
[01:18] <polpak> fdoosey, the next version of gnome is much quicker
[01:18] <flax^^> ati-driver-installer-8.23.7-i386.run - install, how?
[01:18] <polpak> flax^^, tried the Wiki?
[01:18] <flax^^> tried what? :P
[01:18] <polpak> !tell flax^^ about ati
[01:19] <fdoosey> Gah, I'm not enough of a geek yet
[01:19] <polpak> fdoosey, you'll get there
[01:19] <fdoosey> It defaults to the i810 chipset
[01:19] <polpak> fdoosey, what video card do you have?
[01:19] <fdoosey> I had foolishly thought that Dell offered Linux drivers...pfft
[01:19] <fdoosey> Um, no idea about the video card
[01:20] <fdoosey> This is a machine I pirated from our NOC
[01:20] <polpak> fdoosey, it's not really dell's responsibility.. It's the chipset manufacturer
[01:20] <fdoosey> Arrr
[01:20] <polpak> fdoosey, try lspci
[01:20] <SunnyD> .search xxx
[01:20] <Relampago> hello
[01:20] <polpak> fdoosey, it should show you your video and sound cards
[01:20] <Spde> Whats a good stable and easy ftp server for ubuntu?
[01:20] <XpCrash> anyone know how to getinto a bios on a mac
[01:20] <NickGarvey> Spde: I use vsftpd
[01:20] <NickGarvey> Spde: works fine for me

[01:20] <Spde> NickGarvey: sudo apt-get install vsftpd ?
[01:21] <polpak> Spde, vsftpd or proftpd depending on what you're wanting to do
[01:21] <Spde> polpak: what is the difference? i probably want the easyest

[01:22] <polpak> Spde, probably go with vsftpd then. Proftpd has more features, but is a little trickier to configure
[01:22] <polpak> Relampago, don't spam pls
[01:22] <Relampago> no is spam ..
[01:22] <Relampago> :S
[01:22] <Relampago> is my error

[01:23] <htrp> what can you use other than esd?
[01:23] <Relampago> help me
[01:23] <polpak> fdoosey, one sec
[01:23] <Abtubtuntu> hello
[01:23] <silvaran> Is there any way to get kind of an update history on what the last packages I updated were?
[01:23] <Abtubtuntu> when I think about Ubuntu I get horny.
[01:24] <IdleOne> Relampago>  I dont know what all that is ablout but it looks like you need a bunch of libs for apache. did you install apache?
[01:24] <Relampago> yes
[01:24] <Abtubtuntu> Is this normal?
[01:24] <IdleOne> Abtubtuntu>  thats great for you but try to keep it G rated please
[01:24] <htrp> what can you use other than esd?
[01:24] <Relampago> i run the command

[01:24] <V4Vendetta> Abtubtuntu, me too
[01:25] <htrp> what can you use other than esd?
[01:25] <Abtubtuntu> When I think about ubuntu I get Saint like.
[01:25] <IdleOne> lmao thats better
[01:25] <Relampago> ^^
[01:26] <dReadMoRe> what's the recomended configuration to install ubuntu!?
[01:26] <dzer0> hello
[01:26] <IdleOne> dReadMoRe>  default
[01:26] <NickGarvey> dReadMoRe: assuming you want the default, just hit enter
[01:26] <Abtubtuntu> when you install kde along side gnome using the sudo command does it set it up automatically?
[01:26] <polpak> fdoosey, I think you want the i830 driver
[01:26] <fdoosey> OK
[01:27] <IdleOne> Abtubtuntu>  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and you will have both and can switch from gnome to kde
[01:27] <Abtubtuntu> cool
[01:28] <Led-Hed> hello
[01:28] <dReadMoRe> hum...the recomended hardware requisites...such as disc space, memory, etc etc..
[01:28] <fdoosey> polpak, I do not have i830 on the list... :/
[01:28] <flax^^> !tell flax^^  about sound
[01:29] <TLE> Hey, does any of you know what the outcome of the delay discussion is?
[01:29] <IdleOne> dReadMoRe>  think you can find that on www.ubuntu.com
[01:29] <NeverDream> bom dia
[01:29] <captine> eve all.  Can someone help me.  I am in america for a while from South Africa.
[01:30] <Spde> sudo apt-get install proftpd doesn't work?
[01:30] <NeverDream> speak thy question!
[01:30] <captine> I don't have internet access in South Africa to d/l any additional apps for ubuntu
[01:30] <ryan`> where can i find out if a package is available for ubuntu?
[01:30] <NickGarvey> google
[01:30] <captine> where can i get aps + dependancies specific to ubuntu?
[01:30] <IdleOne> ryan`> packages.ubuntu.com
[01:30] <Spde> cant i get proftpd whit aptget?
[01:31] <NeverDream> captine, are you using ubuntu now?
[01:31] <captine> the live cd.  on my work laptop :)
[01:31] <Spde> NeverDream: you know why it dosnt work?
[01:32] <polpak> fdoosey, is this a laptop?
[01:32] <Led-Hed> I'm new to Ubuntu/Debian, but have used RedHat quite a bit.  I've noticed quite a few differences with respect to the CLUI.  In Fedora/RH I was able to start|stop|restart services like so:  service httpd restart.  How do I restart services in ubuntu? or where can I find a good tutorial for this?
[01:32] <captine> NeverDream, I was hopin to d/l the apps and install them when i get home (ZA)
[01:32] <Abtubtuntu> When I think about ubuntu i think wow windows is no longer needed because Bill Gates is so ugly he makes prince charles look pretty. But then it occurs to me. If ubuntu is going to take over the w
[01:32] <Abtubtuntu> ++++++++
[01:32] <NeverDream> Spde, do you have the repos set up right?
[01:32] <Abtubtuntu> world we w
[01:32] <fdoosey> polpak, no, it's a desktop
[01:32] <Abtubtuntu> we will need a leader
[01:32] <Spde> NeverDream: repos?
[01:32] <NeverDream> captine, there're a bunch of repositories with ubuntu debs on them
[01:32] <fdoosey> I'm checking Intel for a download
[01:33] <NeverDream> Spde, reositories? /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:33] <polpak> Led-Hed, I think you want invoke-rc.d
[01:33] <ryan`> IdleOne, thanks
[01:33] <nickrud> Led-Hed, the near equiv is invoke-rc.d
[01:33] <navarone> Abtubtuntu: I am sure you'll find a leader in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:33] <NeverDream> Spde, you want to make sure you have the repo that has your package in it
[01:33] <Led-Hed> thanks
[01:33] <NeverDream> Spde, then apt-get update
[01:33] <nickrud> Led-Hed, faster: man invoke-rc.d
[01:34] <polpak> Led-Hed, it's already installed you just have to check the man page/documentation
[01:34] <ryan`> anyone here using Xubuntu?
[01:34] <Led-Hed> K, will do
[01:34] <nickrud> lose one, win one :)
[01:35] <navarone> ryan`: I am using xfce
[01:35] <NeverDream> will the official xubuntu be released with 6.04/6.05 (whichever it turns out to be)?
[01:35] <IdleOne> ryan`>  no problem and yeah Im running xubuntu
[01:35] <captine> NeverDream, cool.  is ftp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/ a repository?  it seems to have apps in it
[01:35] <ryan`> IdleOne, cool.
[01:36] <jimcooncat> ryan, not right now but set one up for a friend
[01:36] <ryan`> I'm considering trying it on my laptop
[01:36] <NeverDream> captine, yes, but that's unofficial stuff
[01:36] <Honda> Hi All
[01:36] <IdleOne> ryan`>  give it a shot
[01:36] <phaedral> i'm finishing an install of 5.1; reading from linux on laptops about setting up my wifi; the instructions for installing wpa_supplicant seem a little odd; why not su to root and apt-get install wpa_supplicant?
[01:36] <NeverDream> captine, but still useful stuff if you want it ;)
[01:36] <Honda> I'm new to Ubuntu lol... ran it for the first time today...
[01:36] <polpak> fdoosey, check out this thread on the ubuntu forums.. It may help you
[01:37] <polpak> fdoosey, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=48154&highlight=82865G
[01:37] <ryan`> i tried gentoo yesterday, but the bloody installer took a bite out of my windows partition :'(
[01:37] <Superslash> Anyone ran an ubuntu livecd recently?
[01:37] <ryan`> rather upsetting, that.
[01:37] <jimcooncat> ryan xubuntu is easy to run with gnome still installed
[01:37] <Honda> I did!
[01:37] <Honda> I'm running a Live CD right now.
[01:37] <polpak> Honda, =)
[01:37] <youBun2> I need some help if possible
[01:37] <ryan`> jimcooncat, yeah, but I don't have terribly much HD space
[01:37] <Superslash> how long did the part where it said "Setting up LVM volume groups" take you?
[01:37] <youBun2> I have sata with a hidden fat as sdal
[01:37] <Honda> Linux evolved too much.... it's awesome...
[01:37] <youBun2> windows is on sda2
[01:38] <youBun2> and i need some help setting up grub
[01:38] <Superslash> because this section tends to take me around half an hour at least
[01:38] <IdleOne> !tell youBun2 about dualboot
[01:38] <jimcooncat> ryan`, doesn't take much, clean out your cache after
[01:38] <IdleOne> Superslash>  thats way to long
[01:38] <NickGarvey> honda: nice job, hows gnu/linux treating you so far?
[01:39] <ryan`> hmm
[01:39] <Honda> I'm thinking seriously about creating a second partition to install it...
[01:39] <Superslash> idle0ne: you have no idea, i've been booting up a livecd for almost an hour and a half now
[01:39] <nickrud> is there anyone about who knows sata + grub well ?
[01:39] <ryan`> how's wireless support? Will I have to build madwifi drivers?
[01:39] <Superslash> the longest parts were configuring swap and now this
[01:39] <NickGarvey> honda: how much HD space do you have?
[01:40] <Superslash> and it just finished that, now its doing "Enterprise volume management system"
[01:40] <farous> anyone know why with the latest updates my system became irratic and unstable?
[01:40] <Honda> Well unfortunatelly I have a great space... but my computer won't let it happen lol... too slow you know?
[01:41] <Chiv> newbie here, probably a question from the faq(couldnt find it though). How do i make the remote desktop/vnc a system service, so i dont have to log in first and then connect, but rather just connect from vnc after boot ?
[01:41] <Spde> how do i edit accounts and stuff in proftpd? cant really find it in the man page? (tired) =)
[01:41] <benplaut> I;m getting into lightweight WMs, most of which don't have any sort of load-on-login functionality. In a gdm .desktop file, can i have it execute a standard-format .xinitrc?
[01:41] <jimcooncat> Honda, my friends happy with a 5 year old Compaq and xubuntu, only a few things are slow
[01:42] <captine> NeverDream, sorry to keep bothering, but where are the official d/l's?
[01:42] <NeverDream> the "main" repo
[01:42] <farous> spde there is a good howto on the formus on proftpd. adise use vsftp from its name it is more secure :)
[01:42] <Honda> Can the linux be joint to a Windows domain and support it features already?
[01:42] <ilian> ?
[01:42] <NickGarvey> honda look into "samba"
[01:42] <NeverDream> captine, main, security, and universe has useful stuff, too
[01:42] <jimcooncat> Honda, I beleive so, see samba
[01:42] <fdoosey> polpak -> I made the changes from that forum, is a dpkg-reconfigure still needed?
[01:42] <Honda> let me find something for it....
[01:43] <ilian> hi
[01:43] <polpak> fdoosey, I don't think so.. Just have to restart X
[01:43] <Honda> or better, about it... lol my english sucxxxxx
[01:43] <fdoosey> Ah
[01:43] <Chiv> i dont think sambat allows to join a domain, but just file/printer sharing
[01:43] <NeverDream> captine, here's all of them: ftp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/
[01:43] <jimcooncat> Honda, we've only used it as a domain controller
[01:43] <fdoosey> <-- total newbie... and I do that...how?
[01:43] <Honda> but no as a client?
[01:43] <Honda> not
[01:43] <polpak> fdoosey, ctrl-alt-backspace works pretty well
[01:43] <twinge> How do you guys feel about ubuntu as development environment? It seems to market itself primarily at the "normal" user.
[01:43] <fdoosey> learning this will be SO worth it to be rid of Windows
[01:43] <fdoosey> OK
[01:44] <p01n7> thought everyone wanted to know
[01:44] <p01n7> :P
[01:44] <NeverDream> captine, I would imagine the easiest way would be to rsync them to a drive, if you have a drive large enough... you'd need a LOT of space
[01:44] <jimcooncat> Honda, no, but should not be a problem
[01:44] <polpak> p01n7, dapper's not stable yet.. But you can if you feel you're up to it
[01:44] <ilian> may I join the dialogue?
[01:44] <nickrud> gotta be better than mandrake
[01:44] <youBun2> Oh I also can access the drive just fine with my current fstab
[01:44] <ilian> I am a newbie aswell
[01:44] <jimcooncat> ilian, you really should
[01:44] <nickrud> er
[01:44] <p01n7> polpak, thats mostly why im doing it
[01:44] <Honda> Well I saw that most of linux e-mail clients supports exchange server.
[01:45] <captine> NeverDream, thanks.  I will get an external drive tomorrow.
[01:45] <Honda> that is cool...
[01:45] <NeverDream> captine, that would give you every package
[01:45] <ilian> how can I private message smb?
[01:45] <NeverDream> captine, but you could just get what you want and make a little repo yourself
[01:45] <NeverDream> captine, iirc, there's a guide on the net somewhere
[01:45] <pvd2006> is Nessus a pretty good way to test your system for security holes?
[01:45] <captine> NeverDream, hope my hotel doesn't mind me downloading like mad
[01:46] <Honda> I'm looking at fedora distribution screenshots... does anyone know wich one is more intuitive?
[01:46] <captine> :)
[01:46] <Honda> knows
[01:46] <IdleOne> captine>  your paying for the connection :)
[01:46] <captine> iirc?
[01:46] <farous> anyone know why with the latest updates my system became irratic and unstable? talking about breezy here? for example w, who are giving me problams. Also dual head xinerama started to give me problams were half the screen was not displayed last time i gave a presentation
[01:46] <NeverDream> captine, yeah, it's a HUGE download
[01:48] <captine> IdleOne, nope, it's free, but they might complain
[01:48] <Spde> anyone running software raid here?
[01:48] <jimcooncat> Honda, fedora is nice if you have a geek guide available to get you set up
[01:48] <IdleOne> captine>  tell them it's for a big presentation you need to do
[01:48] <NeverDream> captine, it would work something like this: http://tim.suttonfamily.co.uk/timwiki/How_to_make_your_own_apt_repository
[01:48] <captine> shot NeverDream
[01:48] <captine> will do IdleOne
[01:48] <captine> :)
[01:48] <jimcooncat> Honda, but I got the feeling you gotta be part of the club
[01:49] <captine> the connection is through inn-connections.com
[01:49] <NeverDream> fedora is really easy to set up, and it's pretty to boot
[01:49] <Honda> I aways liked Red Hat distributions, but I stopped playing with linux when I got spanked for one weekend trying to install a modem. I think it happened in 2001 loooooooooool
[01:50] <ilian> can I have a private conversation with an andvanced linux user?
[01:50] <MistaED> fedora has some nice gui tools to make life easier like to change services, samba, etc. but it fails with yum/up2date compared to apt/synaptic
[01:50] <nickrud> Honda, hardware modems, <rinse and repeat>
[01:50] <NeverDream> MistaED, exactly why I use Ubuntu :p
[01:50] <jimcooncat> captine, you running your distribution out of a hotel room?
[01:50] <captine> yip
[01:50] <Abtubtuntu> I prefer Ubuntu because it's brown.
[01:50] <youBun2> Folks
[01:50] <Honda> I think I was trying to install a winmodem, but that was long ago... thing got better now, at least we have broadband lol
[01:51] <captine> jimcooncat, I've booted the live cd
[01:51] <youBun2> When I reinstall Windows on Monday
[01:51] <youBun2> How many partitions should i create?
[01:51] <jimcooncat> how you like it, I haven't tried a new one lately
[01:51] <captine> jimcooncat, would love to buy a laptop and load it, but got no cash for that
[01:51] <youBun2> I would like to run Ubuntu with XP but I am told I should have an extra partition for dual boot ?
[01:51] <calloc> how do i restart the mysqld server?
[01:51] <ryan`> youBun2: when I dual boot windows, I make two partitinos for windows
[01:52] <ryan`> one ntfs
[01:52] <jimcooncat> captine, get an old clunker and stick it in a corner down cellar
[01:52] <Parkotron> I need some bash help. I have a bunch of nested directories full of .jpeg files. I'd like to rename them all to .jpg. The following line will rename all the files in the current directory, but I'd like the rename to work recursively: for file in *.jpg; do mv $file ${file/%".jpg"/".jpe"}; done
[01:52] <ryan`> and one fat32
[01:52] <ilian> May I ask a question?
[01:52] <ryan`> and I use the fat32 for the page file
[01:52] <jimcooncat> ilian, please just ask
[01:52] <ryan`> then use the page file as swap under linux.
[01:52] <captine> jimcooncat, i don't understand.  Do you mean a second hand laptop?
[01:52] <ryan`> but that's just me.
[01:52] <ilian> I`ve just installed Ubunto and spliced my HDD in 3 parts
[01:52] <jimcooncat> captine, or old desktop, they're easier to find
[01:52] <ryan`> Parkotron: use find
[01:53] <ilian> 1.WindowsXP 2 Ubunto 3 Database
[01:53] <Honda> Does linux already recognizes ntfs partitions?
[01:53] <jimcooncat> but thinkpads around here are fairly cheap
[01:53] <polpak> Honda, read only, but yes
[01:53] <calloc> how do i restart the mysqld server?
[01:53] <MistaED> i recommend ext2 over fat32 if you want a shared partition for data, see fs-driver.com
[01:53] <Parkotron> ryan`: Thanks. Really should have thought of that.
[01:53] <Superslash> honda ilian: yes but if you have a SATA hdd apparently ubuntu installcd's don't recognize partitions
[01:53] <jimcooncat> second hand that is
[01:53] <nickrud> youBun2, I'd wait a bit, this seems to be geek time :)
[01:53] <youBun2> lol
[01:53] <ilian> Windws cannot find the HDD with the database...
[01:53] <jimcooncat> ilian, so what's the problem?
[01:53] <captine> jimcooncat, can't take an old desktop back to south africa with me.  Will take up too much space.  Would ubuntu install and run off an external hdd
[01:54] <nickrud> Superslash, that's youBun2's exact problem
[01:54] <youBun2> nickrud, lol
[01:54] <Superslash> bickrud: my exact problem as well
[01:54] <ryan`> polpak, Honda: you can write NTFS, but the write support in the vanilla kernel is experimental
[01:54] <ryan`> captine: sure
[01:54] <jimcooncat> captine, I believe so, you just would have to be able to boot it
[01:54] <Superslash> apparently the way to solve the unrecognized partition problem is to run the latest livecd and fix everything with gparted
[01:55] <ilian> the separate database HDD is "invisible" by Windows....No problem for the Linux...
[01:55] <ryan`> even if you can't boot it, you can bootstrap it from a bootcd, thoug that can be a little tricky.
[01:55] <analfabeta_>  hi, i will compiler a simples hello word in C, but the gnu c compiler says: "error: studio.h: No such file or directory"
[01:55] <captine> cool.  will get one tomorrow.
[01:55] <lucascoala> somebody can help me with FULL DUPLEX????
[01:55] <analfabeta_> why is that?
[01:55] <jimcooncat> captine, why not stick with the livecd?
[01:55] <ilian> dunno
[01:55] <Superslash> personally i just left about 80gigs unformatted in my windows install and imo use that with gparted, dont even need to touch my windows
[01:55] <ryan`> lucascoala, full dupelx on what?
[01:55] <_jason> analfabeta_: do you want stdio.h instead?
[01:55] <calloc> How do i restart the mysql server in ubuntu?
[01:56] <lucascoala> to use ekiga in ubuntu
[01:56] <lucascoala> dapper
[01:56] <_jason> calloc: did you install it?
[01:56] <analfabeta_> _jason, in gcc?
[01:56] <Superslash> of course anybody running a livecd will probably have my problem and be stuck for almost 30minutes at "enterprise volume management system"
[01:56] <ilian> I have operational Ubunto and Windows...but is this some kind of bug from the Win32?
[01:56] <polpak> calloc, /etc/init.d/mysql restart  probably. Or possibly mysqld
[01:56] <cK^Deathman>  when i try to run the live version, it loads everything up in bios or whatever, but then it freezes with a _ in the top left
[01:56] <captine> jimcooncat, cos i cant download apps or update :)  Ideally, i think i will just d/l all the apps i want and install them on my desktop back home
[01:56] <_jason> analfabeta_: you have a #include <studio.h>, do you mean stdio.h?  That is what I am used to seeing
[01:56] <ryan`> lucascoala: please be more specific
[01:56] <captine> jimcooncat, i.e. i want tv time etc
[01:56] <polpak> calloc, and you'll need to use sudo
[01:56] <lucascoala> yeah...
[01:56] <Honda> Superslash, My live CD took  only 5 minutes to book.
[01:56] <nickrud> and since I have never had sata, I'm at the end of my help
[01:56] <lucascoala> i have try to use ekiga to make conversation...
[01:57] <Superslash> honda: mines been on "starting enterprise management system" for around half an hour now
[01:57] <jimcooncat> captine, remote control of your home desktop isn't an option?
[01:57] <captine> Superslash, i agree with Honda, 5 minutes if that
[01:57] <analfabeta_> _jason, how i can know if i have ?
[01:57] <lucascoala> but when a does a conection i have an error
[01:57] <Honda> Superslash: something is wrong man... wut is ur hardware conf?
[01:57] <_jason> analfabeta_: put your source code on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and give me a link please
[01:57] <lucascoala> in a support of full duplex in alsa...
[01:57] <nekostar> ioi
[01:57] <IdleOne> Superslash>  try burning another cd
[01:57] <captine> jimcooncat, south africa is extremely expensive in terms of internet connectivity.  Dont have a connection at home
[01:57] <polpak> analfabeta_, stdio.h is the C standard IO header.. studio.h is not standard
[01:57] <fdoosey> polpak -> the fix on that thread blowed up X
[01:57] <fdoosey> BUT...
[01:58] <samuel> How do you make it so you can see your windows partition in ubuntu ? with a dual boot config
[01:58] <captine> jimcooncat, would love to set that up eventually
[01:58] <fdoosey> I made the changes listed elsewhere and I have a better resolution
[01:58] <_jason> ubotu: tell samuel about ntfs
[01:58] <jimcooncat> captine, I'd think about a secondhand thinkpad then
[01:58] <IdleOne> !tell samuel about mount
[01:58] <fdoosey> So many thanks, my screen is better.
[01:58] <analfabeta_> _jason, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10429
[01:58] <polpak> fdoosey, it's better but it's broken??
[01:58] <samuel> thanks
[01:58] <Superslash> idle0ne: i did, this is my second. everything works fine until here. it still responds promptly to key presses but it just takes forever to load (hangon its doing something again)
[01:58] <captine> jimcooncat, I'm in Detroit for 1 more week for work, then to Miami for a week.  Where would be the best place to get one?
[01:58] <fdoosey> It WAS broken
[01:59] <_esher> hi
[01:59] <captine> jimcooncat, ebay?
[01:59] <fdoosey> I fixed it
[01:59] <polpak> fdoosey, ah, cool
[01:59] <fiendskull9> Hello
[01:59] <Superslash> honda: look up the gateway 508ge, i've got that mofo with a soundblaster audigy2 value, and a 6600gt
[01:59] <fdoosey> There was another page listing 3 lines to add to xorg.conf
[01:59] <fiendskull9> long question, but here goes.....
[01:59] <_jason> analfabeta_: change your first line from ``include <studio.h>'' to ``#include <stdio.h>'' and try again
[01:59] <jimcooncat> ebay, craig's list, google, froogle
[01:59] <fdoosey> Which worked. I don't want to tempt fate by upping the resolution to 1600x1200
[01:59] <Honda> Superslash: Holy God!
[01:59] <_esher> can ubuntu support boot from ich7r raid array (tyan b5161 barebone with tyan tomcat i7230b mainboard) ... ?
[01:59] <fdoosey> It's a 21 inch monitor, I could go higher
[02:00] <fdoosey> But I'm content now
[02:00] <captine> thanks.  will start looking now
[02:00] <_esher> 5.10 dont work
[02:00] <lucascoala> analfabeta....
[02:00] <Superslash> honda: the hard drive is SATA, which is apparently why the
[02:00] <lucascoala>  stdio.h
[02:00] <IdleOne> captine>  search the phonebook for a small computer shop..they might have some second hand boxes available
[02:00] <Terminus> _esher: i don't think fakeraid works right now.
[02:00] <lucascoala> e nao studio.h
[02:00] <flax^^> hmm, the sound isnt synced at all with the movies :(
[02:00] <analfabeta_> _jason, but i have #include <studio.h>
[02:00] <jimcooncat> fdoosey, I'd get lost
[02:00] <Superslash> install cd wasnt working, but the livecd should be able to partition fine
[02:00] <fiendskull9> I have to ethernet cards, one being etho0 and other being etho1. At my house, i use etho0 just fine, but at my dads, i have to use etho1 for it to work, any idea why? and how i can get etho0 to work here? im thinking its the modem not liking my dlink card.
[02:00] <analfabeta_> _jason, only don't show in pastebin
[02:00] <analfabeta_> =/
[02:00] <Honda> Does anyone know if the live CD supports SATA?
[02:00] <sopido> hello.. my altgr key is not working xev gives ISO_Level3_Shift but i can not use it to get keys like (at) or a pipe.. any ideas?
[02:00] <fdoosey> It helps for my job, we keep many things open
[02:00] <_jason> analfabeta_: stdio not studio, there is no ``u''
[02:00] <Superslash> honda: it does
[02:00] <Honda> Superslash: did you tried the advanced boot feature?
[02:00] <nekostar> oi
[02:00] <analfabeta_> _jason, hmm, tks!
[02:01] <nekostar> i killed sshd process on my remote server on accident
[02:01] <Superslash> _jason: it's stdo, U or U Not, there is no I
[02:01] <nekostar> now i cannot ssh into it,,,,
[02:01] <Honda> Superslash: there must be an option to boot with SATA.
[02:01] <Grark> Grumble Grumbe.
[02:01] <Superslash> honda: afaik the livecd supports sata
[02:01] <nekostar> is there a way to fix it remotely without rebooting?
[02:01] <Superslash> and the installcd was fine
[02:01] <nickrud> youBun2, yeah this is definitly geek time.
[02:01] <Superslash> everything works, it just didnt recognize my partitions, and now this takes very long
[02:01] <sennachie1973> hi all
[02:01] <_jason> Superslash: ?
[02:01] <Superslash> it still responds fine, its not hungup, if i type it appears, but it takes for goddamn ever
[02:02] <fiendskull9> anyone else have problems mounting other fat32 partitions?
[02:02] <Superslash> _jason: "Do or do not, there is no try" - "U or U not, there is no I"
[02:02] <fiendskull9> they seem to load much slower
[02:02] <sennachie1973> nope
[02:02] <fiendskull9> or is ntfs just faster?
[02:02] <fiendskull9> oh well
[02:02] <fiendskull9> im out
[02:02] <NickGarvey> later
[02:02] <fiendskull9> peace ubuntu-heads
[02:02] <sennachie1973> cya
[02:02] <sennachie1973> hey can anyone help with a gnome 2.10 problem?
[02:02] <Honda> Superslash: very strange... How many GB is this SATA?
[02:02] <Superslash> 200
[02:03] <Superslash> 130 for windows, about 50 unformatted for linux
[02:03] <youBun2> nickrud, Yeah, haha
[02:03] <sennachie1973> ?
[02:03] <_esher> Terminus, nice idea i give a try at fakeraid
[02:03] <Honda> But are you trying to install or run from the live cd?
[02:03] <cK^Deathman>  when i try to run the live version, it loads everything up in bios or whatever, but then it freezes with a _ in the top left
[02:03] <Grark> any recommendations on an ftp client? Gftp is giving me grief.
[02:03] <IdleOne> sennachie1973>  if you dont ask a question nope we cant help you
[02:04] <nickrud> youBun2, hang in there, pop up a carefully crafted question, someone will bite eventually
[02:04] <sennachie1973> ok. the question is this.
[02:04] <polpak> Grark, why not use nautilus?
[02:04] <demonseed> hello, i just finished installing Dapper Flight on 2 boxes here, 1 is fine, this one however, in the Computer section, is showing 7 icons for ffloppy, any ideas why or how to get rid of them?
[02:04] <Grark> polpak, maybe cause i'm a newbie and wouldn't know where to find it! :P
[02:04] <flax^^> on some of the videos i have, the sound is _really_ messed up, not synced at all :( any1 know how to correct this?
[02:04] <polpak> Grark, Places->Connect to Server, choose FTP (with login) as the type
[02:04] <Superslash> honda: installing worked fine but didnt recognize that i had partitioned the hdd already, so i was told to use the livecd and gparted to format the linux partitions i want and leave the NTFS alone
[02:04] <htinn> demonseed, sudo nano /etc/fstab
[02:04] <mustard5> demonseed, hehe..I had the same thing :)
[02:04] <Superslash> btw can you stick my name in there when you talk to me, i've got highlight on
[02:05] <demonseed> k, thanks
[02:05] <mustard5> demonseed, as htinn said... edit your /etc/fstab and remove the excess entries
[02:05] <polpak> Grark, put in your username, and the server info, and you should be good to go
[02:05] <sennachie1973> i have a distro running gnome 2.10. i am trying to change my /etc/skel directory. i want a different start icon as my default start icon when creating a new account
[02:05] <Superslash> i'm thinking i should post my issues on the forum
[02:05] <demonseed> k super thanks a bunch!!
[02:05] <Honda> How did you partitioned the unformatted space for linux?
[02:05] <sennachie1973> so i need to know which file in etc/skel dictates the location of the start icon
[02:05] <Honda> did you put a tag on it?
[02:05] <sennachie1973> any ideas?
[02:06] <Honda> Superslash how did you partitioned the linux partition? did you flagged it?
[02:06] <mustard5> sennachie1973, I for one, have no idea :)
[02:06] <robert__> anyone here with easy ubuntu
[02:06] <Honda> ME!!
[02:06] <Honda> lol
[02:06] <robert__> ive been puttin the code in the terminall
[02:06] <sennachie1973> i can rename a file where the icon is and it will take
[02:06] <robert__> but nothin goes
[02:06] <IdleOne> sennachie1973> I second mustard5 :/
[02:06] <nickrud> sennachie1973, you're probably gonna want 2.14, if you want decent admin control of gnome
[02:06] <Grark> polpak, ok mr. smartie, how do I "delete" a network connection?
[02:07] <sennachie1973> but i want to keep the old icon around in case people prefer it
[02:07] <Superslash> honda: i havent yet. thats my problem. i left 50gigs unformatted so when i installed ubuntu i could set up my partitions, but the installcd saw the whole hdd as being unformatted and the livecd hasnt loaded yet
[02:07] <polpak> Grark, you mean remove it from the list?
[02:07] <techrush> how can i look at my system logs to try to determine if something weird has happend to my system ?
[02:07] <Grark> polpak, yes I screwed up I think
[02:07] <sennachie1973> well the distro im using only comes with 2.10
[02:07] <polpak> Grark, right click and select unmount
[02:07] <zzz> Salut   !!       est-il possible de faire tourner Msn messenger (windows) avec wine chez ubuntu  MERCI pour vos rponcess
[02:07] <htinn> sennachie1973, i think it's in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps
[02:07] <nickrud> techrush, less /var/log/*
[02:07] <polpak> !fr
[02:07] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:07] <mustard5> robert__, can you elaborate on 'nothing goes'?
[02:07] <IdleOne> sennachie1973>  this is a ubuntu help channel.what distro you using?
[02:07] <nickrud> sennachie1973, which disto?
[02:07] <htinn> "distributor-logo.png"
[02:08] <sennachie1973> so you think thats where it controls it?
[02:08] <Grark> polpak, it's not giving me a menu when I rightclick
[02:08] <lucascoala> hi people... can somebody help me with a FULL DULPLEX support on dapper to use ekiga to make some conversations??? cause a have an error when stablish de conection
[02:08] <sennachie1973> im using pclinuxos with gnome 2.10
[02:08] <polpak> Grark, where are you right clicking?
[02:08] <IdleOne> lucascoala> join #ubuntu+1 for help with Dapper :) and pie !
[02:08] <sennachie1973> i know its an ubuntu channel but the people at pc linux have no idea either
[02:08] <Grark> polpak, on the network I created
[02:08] <lucascoala> tks...
[02:08] <polpak> Grark, click places->Network Servers
[02:08] <nickrud> sennachie1973, ask someone at pclinuxos^W I don't know where
[02:09] <polpak> Grark, in that window, right click the server you created and select unmount
[02:09] <flax^^> i think that its my xvid codec thats a bit sad, the sound/picture isnt synced, any ideas?
[02:09] <Grark> polpak, got it, thank you
[02:09] <IdleOne> sennachie1973>  check and see if they have a forum on the website or a mailing list
[02:09] <Honda> Superslash when you boot with the installation cd... the whole hdd seems to be unformatted right? Isn't it showing only the 50GBs and ignoring the NTFS partition?
[02:09] <twinge> did all those rumors about changing the ubuntu release date settle down?
[02:09] <sennachie1973> well the majority of pclinux people use kde. and couldnt help beyond saying try etc/skel
[02:10] <twinge> where'd that end up?
[02:10] <sennachie1973> ive posted on their forum.
[02:10] <IdleOne> sennachie1973>  I dont think we can be much help either
[02:10] <Grark> polpak, it says it can't display contents.
[02:10] <mustard5> robert__, which method of installation are you using?
[02:10] <techrush> sennachie1973 their is a pclinuxos help channel on efnet but the forum is the best place probably
[02:11] <sennachie1973> ok. how about if it were ubuntu? would there be a file in etc/skel i could edit?
[02:11] <jollyjumper> Anyone got any tips for a application to find wireless accesspoints?
[02:11] <nickrud> sennachie1973, it's probalby in /etc/gconf , or by replacing something in /usr/share/icons
[02:11] <polpak> twinge, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseSchedule
[02:11] <_jason> sennachie1973: what do you mean by start icon?
[02:11] <sennachie1973> well i replaced gconf in the skel and no go.
[02:11] <polpak> Grark, of network servers?
[02:11] <Grark> polpak, no, the server I created.
[02:11] <sennachie1973> main menu icon if you talk gnome
[02:11] <sennachie1973> so im told.
[02:11] <Grark> polpak, I know the info's correct
[02:11] <techrush> gnome isnt well supported in pclinuxos sennachie1973
[02:11] <_jason> sennachie1973: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png_backup
[02:11] <polpak> Grark, ok, unmount it and start over
[02:11] <pvd2006> In Ubuntu, I am running Nessus trying to perform security scans of my computer. I have the server and client, but when I try to run the test it only does a portscan and doesnt enable the rest of the tests even though I have them CHECKED before I hit, "Start Scan."
[02:12] <_jason> sennachie1973: without the _backup part :) in ubuntu
[02:12] <h36sa> hey what's the proper way to not autoload a module on boot? I just want to exclude it.. right now I've just moved it which works but isn't the right way :P
[02:12] <sennachie1973> try no support for gnome at all in pclos
[02:12] <polpak> Grark, on the Connect to Server screen what are you selecting?
[02:12] <techrush> basically yes
[02:12] <NeverDream> captine, are you getting everything okay?
[02:12] <jollyjumper> Anyone got any tips for a application to find wireless accesspoints?
[02:13] <nickrud> sennachie1973, maybe /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png
[02:13] <nickrud>  ?
[02:13] <Brendon> hi all i'm trying to install the latest nvidia drivers. I ran the .run file and everything ran smoothly, no errors even the sanity check says okay. But when i try to run X, i get the error failed to load module glx, nvidia, kbd, mouse and fails to start. How can i check if the module is actually loaded?
[02:13] <sennachie1973> ok. i dont need to change the icon itself
[02:13] <sennachie1973> just the file that points to it.
[02:13] <ForeverGuest> Brendon:  modprobe -l |grep "nvid"
[02:13] <flax^^> how do i get vlc?
[02:13] <Honda> Jollyjumper: I think I found something
[02:14] <sennachie1973> i know where the icon itself is stored and have hacked that before
[02:14] <flax^^> cant seem to find the compiled code
[02:14] <jollyjumper> cool
[02:14] <_jason> sennachie1973: there is #gnome on freenode and GIMNet, try there
[02:14] <h36sa> come on guys.. how do I exclude bcm43xx from being loaded.. it messes with ndiswrapper
[02:14] <_jason> s/GIMNet/GIMPNet
[02:14] <sennachie1973> ta for the url's re distributor logo but its not there
[02:14] <Honda> jollyjumper thy this page: http://tuxmobil.org/linux_wireless_sniffer.html
[02:14] <Honda> try
[02:14] <jollyjumper> tnx, ill try it
[02:15] <sennachie1973> ta jason. i may do. only reason i tried here was i was told the ubuntu people were helpful. :-D
[02:15] <sennachie1973> i posted on the gnome forum with no response
[02:15] <Grark> polpak, "FOLDER CONTENTS CANNOT BE DISPLAYED"
[02:15] <captine> NeverDream, been lost a couple of times, but my hotel is close to my client, so i can get there easily
[02:15] <sennachie1973> hence asking around here
[02:15] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: that command shows that the nvidia.ko, nvidiafb,ko, and nvidia-agp.ko are loaded but x is still not seeing it. Any ideas why x won't see/use loaded modules?
[02:15] <Honda> Superslash so, when you run the partition aplication, it shows 200GB of non partitioned hdd?
[02:16] <nickrud> sennachie1973, we try, but that may possibly be hardcoded, #gnome does seem like the best bet
[02:16] <captine> NeverDream, am loving the driving.  In SA i have a 1.8 litre golf, here i have a 3.5 litre pontiac
[02:16] <ForeverGuest> What errors in Xorg.log? (I'm new to ubuntu, not sure if that's the right log file)
[02:16] <Superslash> no
[02:16] <captine> NeverDream, it's fun driving
[02:16] <NeverDream> captine, :)
[02:16] <Superslash> honda: when i get to the partition setup on breezy badger 5.10 installcd (not live, actual installcd) it shows the 200gb nonpartitioned hdd
[02:16] <sennachie1973> thanks for the efforts anyhow
[02:16] <sennachie1973> :-D
[02:16] <NeverDream> captine, where are you staying?
[02:16] <polpak> Grark, ok, unmount it and start over
[02:16] <polpak> Grark, on the Connect to Server screen what are you selecting?
[02:17] <Superslash> when i'm in windows Xp pro, service pack 1, it shows 130gigs of NTFS and 50gigs of unformatted space
[02:17] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: log just says that is can't open those modules i listed above.
[02:17] <mustard5> Brendon, where you using this guide? http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75074
[02:17] <Honda> Superslash strange... It should at least shows 130GB of non recognized type or something like that lol
[02:17] <captine> NeverDream, Bloomfield hills, Detroit
[02:17] <ForeverGuest> Brendon: Anything higher up in the logs than that?

[02:18] <Superslash> youd think it would at least have the decency to hang or something, but its perfectly responsive
[02:18] <Superslash> its just sitting there loading "Enterprise volume management systems"
[02:19] <Grark> polpak, I've gone through it now 6 times.  I'm selecting ftp with login, putting the server address in...port, pass, leaving folder blank (or tried with / and \) name and username
[02:19] <Honda> Superslash trying to figure it out also...
[02:19] <billwray> anyone talking about EKIGA on breezy?

[02:19] <captine> NeverDream, and u, where u stay
[02:19] <Brendon> mustard5: i just followed the install on nvidia site
[02:19] <Grark> polpak, what's the format for the server?
[02:19] <Grark> 192.168.10.1?
[02:19] <nickrud> _sHaDe, there are good communites (so I hear) on those channels
[02:19] <Grark> or is it \\192.168.10.1
[02:19] <NeverDream> captine, I think we should move this convo, if you don't mind ;)
[02:19] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: i type dmseg and didn't see anything about the nvidia card
[02:19] <Honda> superslash is your windows part ntfs?
[02:20] <captine> sure
[02:20] <Superslash> of course
[02:20] <Superslash> its for playing games
[02:20] <_sHaDe> in #ubuntu-it tehre aren t peolple that can help me
[02:20] <_sHaDe> *there
[02:21] <ForeverGuest> Brendon: Unforunately, I'm running out of ideas -- though, have you done an actual reboot? IIRC, nvidia kernel drivers don't load well after you've booted
[02:21] <nickrud> _sHaDe, I dont use skype or teamspeak, sorry
[02:21] <Honda> superslash what application are you using to part?
[02:21] <billwray> ekiga?
[02:21] <nickrud> or that
[02:21] <Superslash> i've been so bored babysitting this livecd boot that i've polly watched more pornography in the last hour and a half than i have in a day normally
[02:22] <Honda> loooooooooooooooool
[02:22] <_sHaDe> nickrud, thank you dor your interrement
[02:22] <Superslash> honda: i did my formatting during the windows XP install. i just used 130gigs for winxp and didnt even touch the rest
[02:22] <h36sa> come on guys.. how do I exclude bcm43xx from being auto-loaded.. it messes with ndiswrapper
[02:22] <_sHaDe> *interessement
[02:22] <Superslash> left it completely unformatted
[02:22] <nickrud> more than we needed to know, Superslash
[02:22] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: yeah i have reboot, i'll try the guide that was mentioned above. I'm going thru the xorg.log and see it loads modules out of the /usr/lib/xorg/modules dir.
[02:22] <Superslash> nickrud: i havent been hitting it or anything, just looking
[02:22] <Honda> Superslash I know, but what program is on the ubuntu cd for patitioning?
[02:22] <nickrud> lol
[02:22] <polpak> Grark, that should work
[02:22] <ForeverGuest> Brendon: Alright; sorry I wasn't any more help
[02:23] <polpak> Grark, assuming that that is a valid ftp server
[02:23] <h36sa> Superslash: you should make a small winxp, a large media (fat32) and then use the rest for linux installs
[02:23] <Grark> it's valid
[02:23] <polpak> Grark, is it on a lan?
[02:23] <h36sa> keep all your stuff in 1 place that you can always access
[02:23] <Grark> polpak, yes on a lan
[02:23] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: thanks
[02:23] <polpak> Grark, you don't need to specify the port
[02:23] <samuel> what version of kde does that command install?
[02:24] <mustard5> Brendon, try looking over that guide and see if there is anything you missed
[02:24] <DeMoNSeEd> Thanks for the help on the floppy drive glitch, worked like a charm, thanks again!!
[02:24] <polpak> Grark, try just putting in the server and username
[02:24] <Honda> I'm liking this ubuntu stuff lol
[02:24] <Brendon> mustard5: just a quick question, with xorg must i put nvidia modules in the xorg/modules dir?
[02:25] <mustard5> Brendon, I have no idea
[02:25] <samuel> What version does the kde comand install?
[02:25] <samuel> 3.4 or 3.5?
[02:25] <Grark> polpak, when I took the "errror" and pasted it into firefox, I got a "no PASV" error
[02:25] <Grark> polpak, so it might be related to that
[02:25] <polpak> Grark, oh.. that is a problem
[02:25] <_jason> !kde3.5
[02:25] <ubotu> (you might want !kde3.5.1) To upgrade to KDE3.5, Follow the instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php (add the deb... line to your sources.list). Then "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade".
[02:26] <SoulPropagation> How do I change the window border theme?
[02:26] <Grark> back to my original question :)  Any good ftp clients for linux?
[02:26] <SoulPropagation> ....Without using the theme mgr?
[02:26] <polpak> Grark, the FTP server you are running doesn't support passive mode
[02:26] <polpak> Grark, the problem isn't the client, it's the server
[02:26] <Grark> gtp gets in just fine
[02:26] <nickrud> sampan, breezy is 3.4
[02:26] <SoulPropagation> Grark: /usr/bin/ftp, PlacesMenu>ConnectToServer
[02:26] <mustard5> SoulPropagation, why without the theme manager?
[02:26] <nickrud> sampan, 3.4.3
[02:26] <Grark> polpak, gftp gets in just fine
[02:26] <misterii> hey, why can't I make any directories with my default username?
[02:26] <polpak> Grark, do you administrate the ftp server?
[02:26] <Grark> polpak, yes
[02:26] <SoulPropagation> mustard5: Because I'm not using Metacity
[02:27] <polpak> Grark, can you configure it to allow passive mode?
[02:27] <_jason> misterii: where are you trying to make them?
[02:27] <Grark> polpak, but it's hardcoded into the hardware
[02:27] <mustard5> SoulPropagation, k
[02:27] <polpak> Grark, oh
[02:27] <Grark> polpak, no
[02:27] <nickrud> never have had decent luck with apt-get.org , or any of them
[02:27] <polpak> Grark, well gftp will work fine, but you have to uncheck the use passive mode option
[02:28] <misterii> _jason, I tried to put it to home/misteri/ //*thats my default username*//
[02:28] <Grark> polpak, no, I'm getting "not a directory" error with it when I try to transfer a file.
[02:28] <polpak> Grark, non-passive FTP is very antiquated, and problematic for several different kinds of network configurations
[02:28] <_jason> misterii: what command did you use and what was the output?
[02:29] <Nameeater> how can I make update run less hard out (with like nice) ?
[02:29] <Nameeater> updatedb*
[02:29] <misterii> I tried to make it with ubuntu's file manager, permission denied
[02:29] <captine> how do i open a terminal window?
[02:29] <polpak> Grark, well that would indicate that either the path you're trying to upload to is invalid or it is a file, not a directory
[02:29] <_jason> misterii: try mkdir foo in a terminal and see what the error is
[02:29] <polpak> captine, applications->accessories->terminal
[02:29] <_jason> captine: applicatoins menu > accessories > terminal
[02:30] <_jason> i took longer and I didn't even spell it right
[02:30] <Honda> Superslash could not figure out a solution, pass me your e-mail and I'll try to find something about it...
[02:30] <captine> poing_, _jason i can't believe i've looked everywhere and haven't seen it.  Must be blind.  thanks
[02:30] <captine> :)
[02:30] <ya> anyonee heere/
[02:31] <mustard5> ya, we are all here
[02:31] <tisuang> hello everybody
[02:31] <nickrud> you could edit /etc/crond.daily/slocate and add a nice value; but I thought nice was brought in by cron somewhere
[02:31] <ya> im new at this
[02:31] <Honda> me too lol
[02:31] <Grark> polpak, so I can ONLY transfer directories?
[02:31] <polpak> Grark, no
[02:31] <ya> r u guys on a laptop?
[02:31] <nickrud> Nameeater, see above ^
[02:31] <Honda> I'm
[02:32] <mustard5> ya, not everyone no...some are though
[02:32] <polpak> Grark, you can't transfer a file into another file, and you can't transfer files into a directory that doesn't exist
[02:32] <ya> kool
[02:32] <Grark> polpak, I'm trying to take....wait.
[02:32] <Grark> polpak, I think I get it.
[02:32] <Grark> brb
[02:32] <te_iubesc> hello every one... help some body.. can i get a little help in private?
[02:32] <Honda> yes, very! It also recognized my wireless card... awesome
[02:32] <Nameeater> nickrud: thanks, its locking up the sytem when it runs, tho I'm wondering if the HDD is on the blink :/
[02:32] <ya> do any of u havee a there account?
[02:32] <polpak> !anyone
[02:32] <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>
[02:33] <mustard5> te_iubesc, best ask the question in this channel..so everyone can see it
[02:33] <te_iubesc> mustard5 okay :) sorry
[02:33] <Grark> polpak, no that didn't work
[02:33] <polpak> te_iubesc, if someone can help you they will
[02:33] <Grark> polpak, I was trying to drag a file onto a directory remote
[02:33] <SoulPropagation> Is there a way to have global hotkeys? E.g. I can press Super+Arrow to go back/forward in XMMS
[02:33] <te_iubesc> i have a problem.. i dont have anough space.. and is not login anymore in.. what can i do.?
[02:33] <ya> doees someeone have a there account
[02:33] <Grark> polpak, local file to remote hd.
[02:33] <misterii> _jason, the problem is, I can't access my desktop from the console
[02:33] <polpak> Grark, try to change into that directory on the remote side first
[02:34] <_jason> misterii: 'cd Desktop'
[02:34] <polpak> misterii, or if you aren't in your home dir 'cd ~/Desktop
[02:34] <Honda> ya there account?
[02:34] <mustard5> te_iubesc, hmmm...what were you doing just prior to it happening that caused the drive to fill up?
[02:34] <Grark> polpak, I did.
[02:34] <Grark> like I said...just weird.
[02:34] <polpak> Grark, did that work?
[02:35] <nickrud> Nameeater, I start work at 7:30, which is when anacron starts up updatedb ; personally it's an annoyance until I alter anacron's start time but it never locked up anything
[02:35] <polpak> Grark, when you double click the directory you want to upload the file to, does it change your remote path, or give an error?
[02:35] <Grark> Could not change local directory to /home/usER/downloads/vid1/vid10/vid.avi: Not a directory
[02:35] <tisuang> someone here know how to use tv-out with rules in gnome?
[02:36] <Grark> polpak, god I'm dumb.
[02:36] <SoulPropagation> Grark: Ummmm, dude, of course an .. never mind.
[02:36] <polpak> Grark, =)
[02:36] <te_iubesc> aaa i quess instaling some packeges .. i have 7 giga memorry .. a i was adding some programs.. i think all programs :) and .. then not enough memmory . to login
[02:36] <jeremy_c> I just installed ubuntu for the first time and I don't remember it asking me for a root password and I cannot login, did I miss something?
[02:36] <polpak> !tell jeremy_c about root
[02:36] <jeremy_c> polpak: thanks.
[02:36] <_jason> jeremy_c: what do you mean you cannot login?  didn't you setup a user and a password for that user?
[02:36] <polpak> jeremy_c, ubuntu users don't use root, we use sudo =)
[02:37] <fiendskull9> where do i change the splash screen?
[02:37] <mustard5> te_iubesc, you were installing everything?
[02:37] <jeremy_c> I said that wrong, I can login.
[02:37] <polpak> !usplash
[02:37] <ubotu> well, usplash is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto
[02:37] <Blippe> in kde i am able to define a picture for a folder with a .directory-file, is there a "substitute" in gnome?
[02:37] <jeremy_c> I cannot login or su as root.
[02:37] <te_iubesc> mustard5 yeah.. preaty stupid a?
[02:37] <misterii> _jason, I can't copy files/make dirs/etc with my account default (Misteri)on  xUbuntu
[02:37] <Nameeater> nickrod: probably my harddrive, better start burning stuff to dvd :/
[02:37] <_jason> jeremy_c: oh okay, just see ubotu's private message then
[02:37] <jeremy_c> polpak: I use sudo as well on mac os x and my freebsd, just concerned me I could not root.
[02:37] <mustard5> te_iubesc, wll I suppose you might try uninstalling something via the command line :)
[02:37] <te_iubesc> did i mention i`m new in lynux :)
[02:37] <_jason> misterii: pastebin what 'mkdir foo' does
[02:37] <Grark> polpak, it had to do with directory/filename length on the hardware.  When I shortened it, it worked fine.
[02:37] <Grark> so gftp is working again
[02:37] <misterii> it does ok
[02:37] <te_iubesc> mustard5 how can i use console instead of login screen?
[02:37] <polpak> Grark, ah.. Glad to hear it
[02:38] <nickrud> Nameeater, maybe, um a silly question: you do have dma enabled (I get bit by this on every install)
[02:38] <fiendskull9> is there a faster ftp client than gftp
[02:38] <_jason> misterii: then that means you can make directories
[02:38] <jeremy_c> ah, ok. the sudo is fine for me. Just had me concerned.
[02:38] <Grark> polpak, last question
[02:38] <misterii> but I worry of it not working on GUI
[02:38] <fiendskull9> i can only get like 200 kbps with it on my server
[02:38] <mustard5> te_iubesc, ctrl + alt + f1  will take you to a console login prompt
[02:38] <Grark> can you do a batch renaming of files in a directory?
[02:38] <misterii> only as root I can
[02:38] <polpak> Grark, yes
[02:38] <_jason> misterii: where are you trying to create the directories?
[02:38] <te_iubesc> mustard5 thanks :) i'm happy now
[02:38] <jeremy_c> hm, however, that will not allow me to run the update. It wants a root password, so I have to at least set the password.
[02:38] <Grark> change "sesame street" to "SS"
[02:38] <_jason> Grark: man rename :)
[02:38] <Nameeater> nickrud I have no idea, but it hasnt done this before and I think it is doing it on windows now
[02:38] <Grark> dangnabbit.
[02:38] <_jason> jeremy_c: no, use sudo.  What update?
[02:38] <Grark> thanks again guys
[02:39] <ya> can we just talk about anything?
[02:39] <mustard5> te_iubesc, come back if you have problems
[02:39] <_jason> ya: no, support only here.  Anything else in #ubuntu-offtopic please :)
[02:39] <polpak> jeremy_c, you mean the package updator?
[02:39] <mustard5> te_iubesc, you can get to irc from console too you know
[02:39] <Honda> Hail Brows, was a funny time! Thanks for all the chat! have to go, maybe I'll be back tomorrow! Cya all!
[02:39] <jeremy_c> _jason: when I logged into Gnome for the first time, it has an applet that runs. It said 65 updates.
[02:39] <polpak> jeremy_c, you just use your own password
[02:39] <Nameeater> I installed a game with Starforce copy protection that hid the game files (and I cant delete them) and my HDD has been acting up ever since. even on linux
[02:39] <jeremy_c> Clicking it, it wants the password.
[02:39] <_jason> jeremy_c: your user password
[02:39] <misterii> _jason,  trying to do it as misteri gives permission denied
[02:39] <jeremy_c> _jason: ok. For some reason, I just thought it would be the root password.
[02:39] <ya> i have another question
[02:39] <Nameeater> I may have to do a complete format at some stage I think
[02:40] <te_iubesc> mustard5 aaa when shod i do that ? when he show me the screen whith login ? is not working ctrl+alt+f1
[02:40] <_jason> misterii: I have no idea what you mean by ``it''
[02:40] <SoulPropagation> Is there a way to have global hotkeys? E.g. I can press Super+Arrow to go back/forward in XMMS
[02:40] <jeremy_c> _jason: yup, as you know, that worked. thanks!
[02:40] <Carl_FK> firefox wants me to install java manually from here: http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp - what is the non sun thing in the ubuntu repos I can use?
[02:40] <te_iubesc> mustard5 i know :) i'm using vmware :) for ubuntu :) a virtual machine
[02:40] <polpak> jeremy_c, it's trying to do a gksudo command,  only users in the admin group are allowed to sudo, and even then only if they supply their password
[02:40] <misterii> _jason, mkdir (it) as misteri gives permission denied
[02:40] <threeseas> hello
[02:41] <polpak> !tell Carl_FK  about java
[02:41] <nickrud> Nameeater, check out smartmontools , they report potential disk failures
[02:41] <_jason> misterii: can you pastebin this please?
[02:41] <mustard5> te_iubesc, its not working at the login screen?
[02:41] <te_iubesc> nope
[02:41] <misterii> _jason, its just one string and its in finnish so nr
[02:41] <mustard5> te_iubesc, hmmm
[02:42] <te_iubesc> mustard5 same heare hmmm :)
[02:42] <Nameeater> nickrud: thanks
[02:42] <_jason> misterii: I just wanted to make sure I knew what you did, can you paste the line where you entered the command?
[02:42] <nickrud> Nameeater, may you have the same results I did: nothing wrong :)
[02:42] <Carl_FK> !javadebs
[02:42] <threeseas> had a power outage the other day and now I cann't login but get some sort of message about session only lasting 10 seconds --- however am able to login a terminal and after rm some file I'm able to startx... only its not my desktop
[02:42] <threeseas> how can I fix this
[02:42] <threeseas> ?
[02:43] <ya> i have a question!
[02:43] <_jason> ya: ask!
[02:43] <pvd2006> How do you tar -xf filename into a certain directory?
[02:43] <Nameeater> hehe I hope so ^^
[02:43] <mustard5> te_iubesc, I'm thinking about it, something has to be removed to make space...but I'm not sure about the how to remove and what to remove
[02:43] <polpak> pvd2006, cd directory && tar -xf /path/to/file.tar
[02:44] <pvd2006> Thanks
[02:44] <te_iubesc> mustard5 same heare... i cant use the console.:( cant do nothing :(
[02:44] <_jason> pvd2006: -C works as well
[02:44] <misterii> misteri@Dacave:~/mp3$ mkdir whack
[02:44] <misterii> mkdir: hakemiston "whack" luominen ei onnistu: Lupa evtty
[02:44] <ya> i have a myspace and i loaded a picture off the internet to a file and then uploaded it on myspacee but says it cant upload it,please help.
[02:45] <mustard5> te_iubesc, I've never used vmware either so I have no idea how it starts up
[02:45] <_jason> misterii: ls -ld ~/mp3
[02:45] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: What wwere you looking for?
[02:45] <mustard5> te_iubesc, if it was a grub startup I would say go to 'recovery mode' from grub..but I guess thats not an option
[02:45] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: I've been playing a bit with vmware lately...
[02:45] <misterii> _jason what do you aim by that?
[02:46] <te_iubesc> is saying when i log in GDM could not write to your autorization file
[02:46] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, te_iubesc has filled up his partition completely and now can't access ubuntu
[02:46] <_jason> misterii: to check the permissions on that folder
[02:46] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, he's got no hard drive space left after 'installing everything'
[02:46] <te_iubesc> mustard5 vmware is a virtual machine.. so i can have windows and linux in the same time..
[02:46] <pvd2006> _jason, so tar -xfC then what?
[02:47] <pvd2006> _jason, can you give me an example
[02:47] <_jason> pvd2006: I think you would do tar -C directory -xf blah
[02:47] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: From what I've seen, if you set up a dynamic resizing partition, and you reach the maximum size, there's not much you can do
[02:47] <ya> help me!
[02:47] <misterii> _jason, drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 2006-03-18 03:19 /home/misteri/mp3
[02:47] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest vmware is cool i like it.. so.. i wana learn linux.. so i put ubuntu.. then problems:)
[02:47] <fiveiron> so what would be a good mailing list if I have a problem with flex in dapper?
[02:47] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: except maybe log in through terminal if possible, and try to delete files...
[02:47] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest yeap :(
[02:47] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, he says the ctrl + alt + f1 is not functioning at the login screen
[02:47] <themuffenmann> what's up guys..
[02:47] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest i wana log in a terminal.. but i dont know how...
[02:47] <misterii> its root, I know. But how to give permission to all folders to "misteri"?
[02:47] <pvd2006> _jason, ok so tar -C directory -xf filename
[02:48] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, what other method can he use in vmware to get to console?
[02:48] <nickrud> fiveiron, The project web page is at http://lex.sf.net/
[02:48] <_jason> pvd2006: yeah
[02:48] <ForeverGuest> mustard5: Let me dig for a second
[02:48] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest i need something like safe mode in windows

[02:50] <mustard5> ya, your problem seems to be myspace related..not really ubuntu related..what is the filetype you are uploading?
[02:50] <ya> homee
[02:50] <misterii> I want that misteri will have all the same rights to directories as root
[02:50] <themuffenmann> myspace sucks

[02:52] <aleksander> nothing broken in dapper
[02:52] <purpleidea> would someone mind doing: "sudo apt-get install soundconverter" and checking if when you add a file it actually appears because i'm getting nothing! i just want to convert a flac to mp3 :(
[02:52] <mustard5> ya, what is the name of the browser are you using?
[02:52] <_jason> misterii: do you mind pasting the output of 'ls -ld ~/mp3' and we can see whether root owns that.  And if he does we will change that
[02:52] <ya> just thee myspace browser
[02:53] <mustard5> ya, are you using firefox?
[02:53] <ya> o, ya
[02:53] <polpak> _jason, he did already.. root owns it
[02:53] <IdleOne> fiveiron>  go here  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 and replace your /etc/apt/sources.list with the one on the wiki
[02:53] <polpak> _jason, which was why I told him the chown it
[02:53] <mustard5> ya, what does the error say?
[02:53] <IdleOne> fiveiron>  then do sudo apt-get update
[02:54] <_jason> polpak: ah thanks

[02:54] <void^> your music is win32? burn it.
[02:54] <_jason> misterii: so everything is working fine now then?
[02:55] <nickrud> Comrade_Sergei, breezy (5.10)?
[02:55] <mustard5> te_iubesc, any idea what you don't need to have installed..or a big file you can delete that you don't need?
[02:55] <Comrade_Sergei> void^ what
[02:55] <Comrade_Sergei> yes nickrud
[02:55] <Comrade_Sergei> remember me
[02:55] <purpleidea> hey can you do: "sudo apt-get install soundconverter" and check if when you add a file in that program it actually appears because i'm getting nothing! i just want to convert a flac to mp3 :(
[02:55] <te_iubesc> mustard5 nope :)
[02:55] <mustard5> te_iubesc, well you will have to find something :)
[02:55] <te_iubesc> mustard5 i was adding programs .. for internet , aplication, games... all
[02:55] <te_iubesc> mustard5 form the cd:)
[02:56] <nickrud> Comrade_Sergei, if so, sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad
[02:56] <te_iubesc> mustard5 all from ubuntu
[02:56] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: This might be work, but I think I've thought of a way. Not sure it'll work though, as I haven't tried it
[02:56] <rob138> what would be a program i could use to cut out samples from mp3s and make soundclips from them?
[02:56] <mustard5> te_iubesc, ok..so pick something to unistall...name an application
[02:56] <nickrud> Comrade_Sergei, you need to read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[02:56] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: Did you install from an ISO, or an actual CD (or did I miss it, and you're now at least partially logged in?)
[02:56] <te_iubesc> mustard5 hmm where is apliction ?
[02:56] <ya> waiting for a reply mustard5
[02:56] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, he is in command line now
[02:56] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest yeap.. from ubuntu .. ad programs
[02:56] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, the problem now is what to unistall/delete
[02:57] <ForeverGuest> Ah, okay.  That's good, because my answer was going to be convoluted ;)
[02:57] <te_iubesc> i think he get all that from cd
[02:57] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest 10x :)
[02:57] <te_iubesc> mustard5 where i find programs?
[02:57] <rob138> what would be a program i could use to cut out samples from mp3s and make soundclips from them?
[02:57] <ya> waiting mustard5
[02:57] <mustard5> ya, well I'm not sure what the problem is
[02:57] <ForeverGuest> Question for the room: Does anyone have advice on fixing a borked sudoers file that doesn't require a rescue disk?
[02:57] <thenetduck> hey is this server the same as irc.freenode.net
[02:57] <mustard5> ya, what is the file type?
[02:57] <_jason> ForeverGuest: boot in recovery mode
[02:58] <mustard5> ya, where is the file stored in your folders?
[02:58] <polpak> ForeverGuest, boot in single user mode?
[02:58] <void^> rob138: audacity
[02:58] <ya> wat do ya mean?
[02:58] <polpak> ForeverGuest, or rather recovery mode
[02:58] <pvd2006> whoops..., I just accidently extracted 1500 files to my desktop....
[02:58] <ForeverGuest> _jason: vmware makes that difficult
[02:58] <pvd2006> any shortcut to undo that
[02:58] <Comrade_Sergei> thanks nickrud it works
[02:58] <misterii> _jason, oh sorry... Yes, everything 0K
[02:58] <rob138> void^, thanks
[02:58] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, you got a root password?
[02:58] <te_iubesc> mustard... i dont know ehere is the file..
[02:58] <misterii> how do I give permission to /home/misteri/ to misteri?
[02:58] <te_iubesc> mustard5 they where default
[02:59] <purpleidea> misterii: chown
[02:59] <ForeverGuest> mustard5:  No, I rather wish I did. I hadn't set it yet; was going to write after I finished tweaking the sudoers file
[02:59] <_jason> misterii: what does ls -ld /home/misteri say now?
[02:59] <purpleidea> misterii: or chmod
[02:59] <polpak> misterii, chown -R misteri:misteri /home/misteri
[02:59] <ForeverGuest> mustard5: (Clearly, I did things in the wrong order... )
[02:59] <ya> wat do ya mean
[02:59] <Frogzoo> misterii: sudo chown misteri /home/misteri
[02:59] <polpak> misterii, you need to sudo it
[02:59] <mustard5> ya, what type of file is it?  a jpeg or a .doc file or what?
[03:00] <LogicalDash> I've created a FAT16 partition and put some files from Windows on it, so that I could edit them in either Windows or Ubuntu. The files aren't showing up in Ubuntu. What's wrong?
[03:00] <ya> jpeg.
[03:00] <te_iubesc> mustard5 question how can i enable mouse form console?
[03:00] <te_iubesc> from
[03:00] <te_iubesc> :)
[03:00] <mustard5> te_iubesc, I have no idea
[03:00] <_jason> ForeverGuest: are you running windows now?
[03:00] <mustard5> ya, does it have a .jpeg extension on it?
[03:00] <purpleidea> hey, anyone know how to convert from flac to mp3? soundconverter isnt working
[03:00] <ya> i dont think so
[03:01] <ForeverGuest> _jason polpak:I feel silly, apparently I can just reboot the vmware and still access the boot list...  recovery mode does it
[03:01] <mustard5> ya, try or a .jpg?
[03:01] <Comrade_Sergei> whats a good media player for ubuntu thats equal in usibility to windows media player
[03:01] <Frogzoo> !tell LogicalDash about vfat
[03:01] <purpleidea> sergei: mplayer
[03:01] <ds[de] > LogicalDash: just the files or the whole partition?
[03:01] <NeverDream> captine, are you able to get repos?
[03:01] <ForeverGuest> _jason: gentoo. I'm thinking about switching, so wanted tocheck it out
[03:01] <te_iubesc> mustard5 okay
[03:01] <mustard5> ya, try renaming the file with either a .jpeg or .jpg on the end of it
[03:01] <IdleOne> !tell Comrade_Sergei about restrictedformats
[03:01] <Comrade_Sergei> purpleidea?
[03:01] <purpleidea> yes?
[03:01] <LogicalDash> !tell ds[de]  just the files, I can see the partition.
[03:01] <Comrade_Sergei> i no about that
[03:01] <IdleOne> !tell Comrade_Sergei about mplayer
[03:01] <mustard5> te_iubesc, I don't know whats on your system, so I don't know what you can delete or uninstall
[03:01] <ya> kk thanks
[03:02] <mustard5> te_iubesc, that is something you have to work out
[03:02] <Comrade_Sergei> that one helps
[03:02] <pvd2006> how do you remove all the files from a certain directory that lets say has a .NASL extension. I dont see any options for rm to select to remove only a certain file type from a directory.
[03:02] <purpleidea> remove *.NASL
[03:02] <pvd2006> lol
[03:02] <Frogzoo> LogicalDash: you can see the mount point or you can see the partition? does the partition show up in 'mount'
[03:02] <pvd2006> easy enough..
[03:02] <purpleidea> rm *.NASL
[03:02] <te_iubesc> mustard5 but.. at least tell me how to uninstal .. i will do everything else
[03:02] <ds[de] > LogicalDash are you sure the permissions are set correctly? try listing the files with sudo
[03:02] <mustard5> te_iubesc, sudo apt-get remove <packagename>
[03:02] <Phlosten> rm -r *.NASL to recurse the subdirectories
[03:03] <Phlosten> i think
[03:03] <LogicalDash> Frogzoo: the partition shows up in the disks manager if that's what you mean.
[03:03] <purpleidea> Phlosten: can you check something please?
[03:03] <te_iubesc> mustard5 thanks
[03:03] <pvd2006> purpleidea, bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long
[03:03] <Frogzoo> LogicalDash: no - you need to mount the partition - read the msg from ubotu & follow the instructions
[03:03] <Phlosten> purpleidea,  whats that?
[03:03] <Frogzoo> !tell LogicalDash about vfat
[03:03] <purpleidea> pvd2006: type "rm *.NASL"
[03:03] <nickrud> pvd2006, how many files do you have !!!!
[03:03] <pvd2006> 1500
[03:04] <axiom> Hi, whenever I try to use an application compiled against gtk, i get this warning: "Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate loadable module in module_path: "libsmooth.so"," Any ideas about how to fix it?
[03:04] <LogicalDash> Ah, sorry guys, guess I should actually read what shows up in new tabs.
[03:04] <purpleidea> phlosten: sudo apt-get install soundconverter
[03:04] <purpleidea> open the program, tell me if it actually works and can add a file please
[03:04] <ds[de] > LogicalDash: need any help mounting it?
[03:04] <mustard5> axiom, look for a package for libsmooth in synaptic?
[03:04] <Phlosten> purpleidea, i would if I was in Ubuntu atm
[03:04] <axiom> mustard5: no suck luck
[03:05] <Zodo> Say, can anyone tell me how to remove a package with apt on a partition that won't boot?  I'm assuming that I'll have to use a boot CD.  The svgatextmode package is kernel panicking things.
[03:05] <LogicalDash> ds[de] : First I gotta install this thing...
[03:05] <mustard5> axiom, packages.ubuntu.com  has a search function for what files are in what package
[03:05] <axiom> mustard5: to clarify, i searched with apt-cache
[03:05] <purpleidea> phlosten thanks anyways:(
[03:05] <purpleidea> anyone one using ubuntu and apt can test something for 30 sec please?
[03:05] <mustard5> axiom, do you have all repositories enabled?
[03:05] <axiom> mustard5: thanks, ill take a look
[03:05] <axiom> mustard5: yes
[03:05] <IdleOne> purpleidea> ?
[03:05] <te_iubesc> how can i see how big is a file?
[03:05] <mustard5> axiom, k
[03:05] <purpleidea> idleOne: sudo apt-get install soundconverter
[03:05] <IdleOne> k
[03:05] <_jason> te_iubesc: du -h file
[03:05] <ya> it says an unknown error has occured
[03:06] <ds[de] > LogicalDash: k, this might help you after you installed it : http://www.psychocats.net/linux/mountwindows.php
[03:06] <purpleidea> idleOne: when you open the program, click "add" and see if a file actually appears in the list. it's like the buttons do nothing :(
[03:06] <pvd2006> lol
[03:06] <te_iubesc> _jason thanks
[03:06] <pvd2006> it keeps giving me argument list too long
[03:06] <mustard5> ya, what says that?
[03:06] <pvd2006> :-\
[03:06] <Swedish_Chef> is there a patchlist of what's applied to ubuntu's 2.6.15-18 kernel?
[03:06] <EricBetts> Is the ubuntu kernel a bzimage?
[03:06] <ya> myspace upload center
[03:06] <polpak> pvd2006, you can do          find /path/to/huge/list/of/files -name '*.NASL' | xargs rm
[03:06] <karioz> hola
[03:06] <Swedish_Chef> EricBetts: yes
[03:06] <karioz> algen por hay
[03:06] <EricBetts> Swedish_Chef, thanks
[03:06] <_jason> !es
[03:06] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:07] <polpak> pvd2006, if the files you want to remove are called .NASL
[03:07] <ds[de] > Swedish_Chef: are you looking for a changelog?
[03:07] <nocti> hello
[03:07] <mustard5> ya, something is wrong with that file I would say
[03:07] <polpak> pvd2006, but be careful, cause it'll also zap any files in subdirectories with that name
[03:07] <ya> hold on
[03:07] <threeseas> had a power outage the other day and now I cann't login but get some sort of message about session only lasting 10 seconds --- however am able to login a terminal and after rm some file I'm able to startx... only its not my desktop
[03:07] <nocti> how can i update/install packages on a box with no internet connection? thanks
[03:07] <IdleOne> purpleidea> gimme a sec
[03:07] <Swedish_Chef> ds[de] : not exactly. i've seen the changelog, but i was wondering if there was a list/description of the patches applied to the vanilla kernel to make ubuntu's kernel
[03:07] <threeseas> and the fix is ---
[03:07] <axiom> mustard5: no packages are listed as having it
[03:07] <threeseas> sudo rm -rf /home/[user] /.ICEauthority
[03:07] <purpleidea> idleOne: no problem, thanks!
[03:08] <mustard5> axiom, I guess you need to install it manually then
[03:08] <nickrud> threeseas, multiple pints
[03:08] <Swedish_Chef> ds[de] : i normally run -ck but i've been running the ubuntu kernel ever since i upgraded to dapper...just to test it out, i guess
[03:08] <CppIsOnLinux> how do i get my pcmcia Netgear wireless card to work?
[03:08] <axiom> mustard5: i'll look into it, thanks
[03:08] <karioz> algen hlabla espaol
[03:08] <Swedish_Chef> i don't want to lose any functionality/convenient patches by going back to ck
[03:08] <polpak> !es
[03:08] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:08] <ds[de] > Swedish_Chef: now that you mention it, that *would* be intersting
[03:08] <_jason> karioz: /join #ubuntu-es
[03:08] <ya> i browsed it and it showed the same thing
[03:09] <Comrade_Sergei> idleone purpleidea do you have one that has a library feature such as WMP
[03:09] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  I tried it and it didnt add the file but only because it is a .txt file. I dont have any music on this box but it did tell me unknown
[03:09] <CppIsOnLinux> i have the drivers downloaded, but i dont really know what direction to go from there.
[03:09] <farous> anyone tried the new fglrx drivers?

[03:10] <purpleidea> comrade sergei: are you using ubuntu?
[03:10] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  nope I dont know sorry
[03:10] <te_iubesc> 10x
[03:10] <pvd2006> trying to delete all these .nasl files I accidently extracted to my desktop. I cant do it with my desktop because it freezes up since there is over 1500 files
[03:10] <purpleidea> idleone: thanks anyways
[03:10] <polpak> pvd2006, ok

[03:11] <rob> network manager with wpa support, any unoffical package for that yet?
[03:11] <ya> mustard5: it still showed up wheen i browsed it
[03:11] <nickrud> corvax, I don't think easyubuntu claims to support dapper, try #easyubuntu
[03:11] <Mnemic> Guys, i'm trying to ./configure php5 and i get an error msg "configure: error: cannot find output from lex; giving up"

[03:11] <_jason> Mnemic: php is in the repositories
[03:11] <captine> NeverDream, if i get an external drive, and use rsync, will it be able to do it over a couple of days, with reboots in between?
[03:11] <corvax> ill do it the ole fashioned way
[03:11] <_jason> Mnemic: php5 is in the repositories
[03:11] <nickrud> corvax, make-jpkg?
[03:12] <ya> the browser is but it wont upload
[03:12] <Mnemic> hmm
[03:12] <Mnemic> ok _jason thanks :)
[03:12] <NeverDream> captine, you're going to need a BIG drive
[03:12] <_jason> ubotu: tell Mnemic about lamp
[03:12] <NeverDream> captine, but if you have a good download speed, then you should be able to
[03:12] <_jason> Mnemic: you can follow that guide if you are setting up lamp, just change all the php4's to php5
[03:12] <NeverDream> captine, if you leave it on overnight :S
[03:13] <IdleOne> purpleidea> see if this helps you www.mp3-converter.com/linux
[03:13] <pppoe_dude> is xubuntu production stable?
[03:13] <Mnemic> Damn, and already installed Apache+mySQL :/
[03:13] <mustard5> ya, there is a command you can use in console to determine what 'filetype' a particular file is
[03:13] <te_iubesc> i want to get de login windows again from console .. startx ?
[03:13] <mustard5> ya, its the 'file' command
[03:13] <polpak> mustard5, file filename
[03:13] <kinovari> Anyone know if the default kdevelop.deb will have the whole php chunk?
[03:13] <IdleOne> purpleidea> http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/gnormalize-3129.shtml
[03:13] <captine> NeverDream, is a 160 gig big enough?
[03:13] <mustard5> ya, try the file command
[03:14] <ya> kk
[03:14] <nickrud> te_iubesc, if you're in a virtual console, sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[03:14] <captine> :)
[03:14] <mustard5> ya, type man file for instructions in terminal
[03:14] <purpleidea> idleone: will check it out...
[03:14] <te_iubesc> nickrud aham thanks
[03:14] <LogicalDash> Thanks guys, it seems to have worked. Only problem remaining is that I've got an empty directory left over from a botched attempt at mounting--what's the shell command to remove it?
[03:14] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  dont know if that will help but its worth checking out
[03:14] <NeverDream> captine, I should hope so ;)
[03:14] <mustard5> ya, basically its as polpak says above   file yourfilename
[03:14] <polpak> LogicalDash, rmdir directory
[03:14] <LogicalDash> polpak: Thanks!
[03:14] <polpak> LogicalDash, sure
[03:15] <mustard5> ya, that will tell you what type of file this things if for sure
[03:15] <purpleidea> idleone: been looking eerywhere, the program i had you apt, is supposed to be the shit, but it;s not working: P what the !
[03:15] <ya> it doeesnt work either
[03:15] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  you mean its supposed to be the best right :P watch the language please
[03:15] <nickrud> purpleidea, ?
[03:15] <mustard5> ya, what do you mean 'doesnt work?  what error did you see?
[03:16] <purpleidea> idleone: yes. sorry.
[03:16] <nocti> how can i update/install packages on a box with no internet connection? thanks
[03:16] <te_iubesc> 10x you all is working :) i erased the games:)
[03:16] <mustard5> ya, 'doesn't work' tells me nothing...the error message is what I need :)
[03:16] <purpleidea> nickrud: trying to convert flac to mp3 having issues :(
[03:16] <Samineru> is there a way to resize a window from the comandline? cause my firefox window is now taller than my monitor
[03:16] <nickrud> nocti, if you have access to an ubuntu or debian box, apt-zip is your savior
[03:16] <ya> hold on wrong screen,sorry
[03:16] <nickrud> purpleidea, ah, truly something to curse about
[03:17] <IdleOne> Samineru> hold alt and left click to move your screen down
[03:17] <ya> it said nothing
[03:17] <nocti> nickrud: just a win32 box with internet connection. how do i do it? thanks
[03:17] <Samineru> also is there a way to make my monitor turn itself io degrees? so instead of 1280x800 I would have a 800x1280 screen?
[03:17] <mustard5> ya, so what did you type in?
[03:17] <CppIsOnLinux> where are mouse properties to be configured in ubuntu?
[03:17] <opter> ANyone got an idea why there is not sound with tvtime?
[03:18] <IdleOne> CppIsOnLinux>  System > Administration > Mouse I think
[03:18] <purpleidea> nickrud: any ideas? mind trying out sudo apt-get install soundconverter and seeing if the buttons actually work?
[03:18] <Samineru> idleone, the bottom of the window goes of the screen so I need to access the bottom corners to shrink it
[03:18] <NeverDream> CppIsOnLinux, /etx/x11/xorg.conf
[03:18] <nickrud> nocti, I've never done it that way, but I've been told that apt-get --print-uris install <package> gets something usable (you gotta build from that)
[03:18] <Samineru> wait
[03:18] <mustard5> opter, unmute 'line in'?
[03:18] <NeverDream> errr
[03:18] <ya> i just useed the file command and it told me nothing, no error shoewed up

[03:18] <GTroy> I'd really appreciate it
[03:18] <mustard5> ya, I don't know what the problem is

[03:18] <ya> ok
[03:19] <IdleOne> nocti>  yes
[03:19] <polpak> nocti, yes you can
[03:19] <IdleOne> nocti>  hold on Ill get you the link
[03:19] <purpleidea> nickrud: man, i love linux, but sometimes it's frustrating
[03:19] <NeverDream> jus' 'cause you're on ubuntu doesn't mean you can't get your hands dirty!
[03:19] <nickrud> nocti, that gets you the packages to download
[03:19] <nocti> IdleOne, polpak, nickrud, thanks!
[03:19] <CppIsOnLinux> im on a laptop, can i turn off the tapping off in /etc/x11/xorg.conf?
[03:19] <ya> well i think its myspace.....ill send a message to the provider and get his opinion,thanks neeways
[03:20] <mustard5> ya, k..no problem

[03:20] <IdleOne> nocti>  yup
[03:20] <bacon_> Does someone know how to make a pretty link to another bug in a launchpad comment? there's now "preview"
[03:21] <mustard5> bacon_, it doesnt process URL's automatically?
[03:22] <mustard5> bacon_, or the URL is huge ?
[03:23] <bacon_> no, it's just that i see people posting "bug #n" and it's a nice link, should i just put std html?
[03:23] <CppIsOnLinux> anywhere know where i can turn tapping off for a touchpad in linux?
[03:23] <mustard5> bacon_, I don't know actually :)
[03:23] <dli__> for dialup with wvdial, how do I know my IP?
[03:23] <LogicalDash> Now I'm trying to change the group of the FAT16 partition. It's not letting me.
[03:23] <IdleOne> dli__> 68.252.224.112
[03:23] <mikebot> how can i make my mouse scroll work in zsnes?
[03:23] <nickrud> IdleOne, swimming is fine, direction is everything
[03:23] <pvd2006> polpak, that command didnt work, it still says there are too many arguments
[03:24] <pvd2006> in otherwords to many files to list
[03:24] <dli__> IdleOne, no, I'm not asking the IP, I'm asking for a local way :(
[03:24] <pvd2006> to delete at once
[03:24] <IdleOne> nickrud>  when you dont know which way to go follow the bubbles they always go up :P
[03:24] <dli__> IdleOne, but thanks :)
[03:24] <pvd2006> is there anyway to force it
[03:24] <mustard5> pvd2006, what if you delete a subset of them first using some other wildcard argument?
[03:24] <CppIsOnLinux> i have the windows drivers for the touchpad... but i accessed the turning off the tapping function is accessed through the windows mouse configuration
[03:24] <nickrud> IdleOne, you've never truly been 'out there' then :)
[03:24] <pvd2006> mustard5, it says I dont have access to them even u nder orot
[03:24] <pvd2006> under roto
[03:24] <pvd2006> root
[03:25] <pvd2006> i tried to chmod them, but then
[03:25] <mustard5> pvd2006, that's pretty wierd :)
[03:25] <IdleOne> nickrud>  Im not sure I know what that means but Ive been places I care not remember
[03:25] <pvd2006> too many arguments for chmod:-\
[03:25] <fabs> Hello everyone
[03:25] <pvd2006> so I guess I have to
[03:25] <pvd2006> chmod a subet
[03:26] <pvd2006> subset
[03:26] <pvd2006> then
[03:26] <pvd2006> rm a subet
[03:26] <ds[de] > pvd2006: well, you're probably better off learning how to write a quick shell script than to delete these files manually :)
[03:26] <nickrud> IdleOne, I'm not sure I knew what I meant, but I feel you :)
[03:26] <mustard5> pvd2006, you on gnome?
[03:26] <IdleOne> hahah :)
[03:26] <fabs> Guys I need some quick help, why when I try to do apt-get install chmlib, it tells me file not found?
[03:26] <pvd2006> mustard5. yes
[03:26] <Swedish_Chef> argh, how to get rid of the restart required notification thing without restarting?
[03:26] <baconbacon> did you sudo apt-get update
[03:26] <mustard5> pvd2006, have you tried gksudo nautilus to get root access from nautilus window?
[03:27] <mustard5> pvd2006, you could try deleting some manually :)
[03:27] <baconbacon> fabs did you sudo apt-get update
[03:27] <baconbacon> fabs or did you sudo at all ?
[03:27] <IdleOne> !tell fabs about repos
[03:27] <fabs> baconbacon, yep, just installed ubuntu, and then the update, tried sudo too
[03:27] <mustard5> pvd2006, the chmod of a subset sounds like an option to try anyway
[03:27] <Superslash> dear sweet jesus
[03:27] <IdleOne> fabs>  enable universe and multiverse..see ubotu msg
[03:28] <baconbacon> fabs ok do you have a sample of the error msg
[03:28] <fabs> IdleOne, thanks ;)
[03:28] <pvd2006> ds[de]  how can I go about writing a script
[03:28] <pvd2006> ?
[03:28] <Superslash> i've been waiting 2 and a half hours now for the ubuntu livecd to load. its been stuck at "Loading enterprise volume management system"
[03:28] <mustard5> Swedish_Chef, why would you want to?
[03:28] <_jason> pvd2006: can you do something like 'for i in *.NASL; do rm $i; done'?  just curious if that will work
[03:28] <CppIsOnLinux> how do i turn tapping off on my laptop?
[03:28] <Frogzoo> pvd2006: man bash & check google for samples you can copy
[03:28] <Mnemic> sudo apt-get install php4 <-- at this command, if i want php5, i just change the "php4" to "php5" ? :P~
[03:28] <Swedish_Chef> mustard5: because i don't need to see it, and it gets annoying accidentally clicking on it as it's right next to gaim
[03:28] <katarot> hey quick ?  how would i Build the driver bcm4400.o as a loadable module for the running kernel:
[03:28] <_jason> Mnemic: yes
[03:28] <baconbacon> hehe 2h? its obviously too long :)
[03:28] <mustard5> Swedish_Chef, :)
[03:29] <IdleOne> Mnemic>  yeah that should do it
[03:29] <Mnemic> thanks again mate :D
[03:29] <fabs> baconbacon, yep this is the message: E: Couldn't find package chmlib
[03:29] <nickrud> Superslash, you think that migh mean something? did you check the md5sum of the iso?
[03:29] <purpleidea> can anyone *please* find me a way to convert a flac to mp3? gui, cmdline, whatever. i'm in ubuntu dapper
[03:29] <V4Vendetta> anyone know why i cant' seem to print a document i made with tables?
[03:29] <V4Vendetta> it comes out all messed up
[03:29] <baconbacon> fabs yeah you got to enable universe/multiverse repositories
[03:29] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  have you tried asking in #ubuntu+1
[03:30] <purpleidea> i'll try

[03:34] <kode4u> baconbacon, Thank you.
[03:35] <flodine> is there a command to add the user in the irssi window
[03:35] <Swedish_Chef> oh, nevermind
[03:35] <MistaED> kode4u: fs-driver.org is the most stable read/write for windows, although you can set it up for just read
[03:35] <michaelDK> nope no guide, didnt think of that
[03:35] <Swedish_Chef> ntpd is crashing
[03:36] <_jason> flodine: what do you mean?
[03:36] <MistaED> it works like a native fs driver like fat32 or ntfs
[03:36] <IdleOne> flodine>  www.iirsi.org/faq is a great place and has alot of info on configuring
[03:36] <fabs> baconbacon, thanks a lot, working now ;)
[03:36] <dli__> can I vi /etc/apt/sources.list ? sorry, I am used to debian

[03:40] <te_iubesc> help pls i want to install a midnight commander in console .. i want to epty space .. help pls.. i'm going a little bit crazy heare .. thanks in advance
[03:40] <Cooner750> I installed Ubuntu 5.10 onto the external (dev/sda2) USB hard drive on my HP Pavilion a720n. There are 2 partitions on that drive, a 6GB Ext3 and a 100-something GB FAT32 partition for backup from WinXP. Now, the install went fine but when it loads, it gets to the brown ubuntu loading screen and then shows a error that says something along the lines of "dev/sda2 does not exist! Dropping to a shell"
[03:40] <Cooner750> And yea, the BIOS is capable of USB booting
[03:41] <pvd2006> OMG, so stupid, I just ran sudo rm *
[03:41] <pvd2006> :-\

[03:42] <Mnemic> As Guide says.. ;/
[03:42] <pvd2006> I meant to type

[03:42] <_jason> Mnemic: are you sure there is a . in front?
[03:42] <[xp|0it] > greetings and salutations roomies :)
[03:42] <Cooner750> anyone?
[03:42] <Mnemic> _jason, yep;/
[03:43] <NeverDream> poodimoos, lol at/with your nick xD
[03:43] <Mnemic> at the guide,, there is :|
[03:43] <_jason> Mnemic: oh I see
[03:43] <ag0g0girl> how can I get a popup menu for a sever icon that I created by mistake.I just want to unmake it
[03:43] <Superslash> what on earth could be so horribly wrong that one of the most user friendly distro's out there would absolutely refuse to work on my comp
[03:43] <_jason> Mnemic: did you install mysql-server?
[03:43] <LogicalDash> I'm trying to change the group of a FAT16 partition, and it isn't working. Any advice?
[03:44] <Mnemic> acording to the steps... yes :|
[03:44] <IdleOne> ag0g0girl>  just delete the icon
[03:44] <Frogzoo> Superslash: mebbe you should try booting the install with 'linux acpi=off'
[03:44] <ag0g0girl> trash is greyed out
[03:44] <ag0g0girl> says I  can't do it
[03:44] <Superslash> frogzoo: whats acpi?
[03:44] <ds[de] > LogicalDash; how did you mount it? and why do you want to change the group of the folder (I guess) ?
[03:44] <ag0g0girl> are there no context menus for us?
[03:45] <ds[de] > Superslash: advanced configuration and power interface (not sure about interface)
[03:45] <_jason> Mnemic: what does 'apt-cache policy mysql-server | grep -i Installed' say?
[03:45] <Superslash> better yet, heres my forum post: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=146204
[03:45] <Cooner750> anyone know why it's saying '/dev/sda2/ does not exist!' when booting from a external USB drive?
[03:45] <ag0g0girl> it came on my desktop when clicked go to server, and attempted to access my mac drive
[03:45] <LogicalDash> ds[de] : I mounted it with the diskmounter script, and I want to change the group so that root and I can change what's in it but the guest account can't.
[03:45] <Superslash> its got everything tried so far in it and exactly what the problem is
[03:45] <Mnemic> none?!? WTH?!
[03:46] <nazgulwalker> is there a link for new themes for ubuntu?
[03:46] <_jason> ubotu: tell nazgulwalker about themes
[03:46] <NeverDream> Superslash, is your partition linux/ext2 ?
[03:47] <NickGarvey> I am trying to support network booting, and I am unable to get ltsp to see xdmcp, although I am SURE it is there, I am using it now as a remote desktop
[03:47] <Frogzoo> !tell nazgulwalker about themes
[03:47] <te_iubesc> come on now.. please help me whith the mc file manager.. in terminal ..i want to install.. where do i get it ?
[03:47] <Frogzoo> Superslash: it's power management - sometimes turning it off helps the install along
[03:48] <_jason> !info mc
[03:48] <ubotu> mc: (midnight commander - a powerful file manager), section universe/utils, is optional. Version: 1:4.6.0-4.6.1-pre4-2 (breezy), Packaged size: 2048 kB, Installed size: 5712 kB
[03:48] <Superslash> neverdream: read the link
[03:48] <NeverDream> Superslash, I have
[03:48] <_jason> te_iubesc: enable universe and install the ``mc'' package
[03:48] <te_iubesc> _jason 10x
[03:48] <Cooner750> hello?
[03:48] <te_iubesc> how i enable universe?
[03:49] <NeverDream> superslash, but I know I made a partition for freebsd that the ubuntu installer couldn't 'see'
[03:49] <_jason> ubotu: tell te_iubesc about universe
[03:49] <te_iubesc> 10x
[03:49] <Mnemic> _jason, when trying to reinstall mysql i get this:
[03:49] <Mnemic> There is a MySQL server running, but we failed in our attempts to stop it.
[03:49] <Mnemic> Stop it yourself and try again!
[03:50] <NickGarvey> Mnemic: type ps ax | grep sql
[03:50] <_jason> Mnemic: you said before that you had installed mysql on your own.  Did you use apt or did you compile?
[03:50] <Superslash> neverdream: if you'd read the link you would know that i have no partitions for linux. just a NTFS partition for windows and 50gigs of unpartitioned space
[03:50] <katarot> hey can someone explain this i think i got the basic idea
[03:50] <katarot> 1. Create a directory and extract the files:
[03:50] <katarot>    tar xvzf bcm4400-<version>.tar.gz
[03:50] <katarot> 2. Build the driver bcm4400.o as a loadable module for the running kernel:
[03:50] <katarot>    cd src
[03:50] <katarot>    make
[03:50] <NickGarvey> !paste
[03:50] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[03:51] <NeverDream> Superslash, cfdisk ?
[03:51] <NickGarvey> and katarot, what program do you want to install
[03:51] <NeverDream> Superslash, make a partition and flag it ext2
[03:51] <ds[de] > LogicalDash: I don't know about changing the group but in /etc/fstab you can edit the umask-setting to prevent the guest account(s) to alter files
[03:51] <katarot> my broadcom wirless
[03:51] <te_iubesc> _jason did i mention i'm in a console terminal? i dont have the menu.. only console..
[03:51] <Superslash> neverdream: no clue, i'm installing ubuntu because i'm a total n00b. if i was going to partition though i would prolly use ext3
[03:51] <vook> ag0g0girl, what?  you can't delete something?
[03:51] <ds[de] > LogicalDash: Of course this setting labels your non-root-account as a "guest" too, so you'll have to sudo if you want to write to files
[03:51] <_jason> te_iubesc: 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list', uncomment all the lines that start with ``deb''
[03:51] <NeverDream> Superslash, you flag is ext2 then format ext3
[03:51] <ag0g0girl> I have a icon on my desktop that appears to be a server
[03:52] <NickGarvey> katarot: good luck
[03:52] <te_iubesc> aha
[03:52] <vook> ag0g0girl, are you in gnome?
[03:52] <LogicalDash> ds[de] : That would be annoying...
[03:52] <ag0g0girl> it has the same name as my mac drive, but it doesn't connect anywhere
[03:52] <ag0g0girl> I'm using ubuntu breezy
[03:52] <katarot> nickgarvey: what do you mean
[03:52] <Superslash> neverdream: gonna need to be more specific than that. when i said total n00b, i meant total. i know NOTHING about that stuff
[03:52] <LogicalDash> ds[de] : given that the reason I did this is so I can easily edit text files between the OSes...
[03:52] <NeverDream> hmm...
[03:52] <Mnemic> Ok almost done, yes _jason i did installed mysql alone and forgot to stop it.
[03:53] <systemofadown> how can i enabled mesg in kde or gnome
[03:53] <LogicalDash> ds[de] : Guess I'll just change permissions for the individual folders inside of the partition.
[03:53] <Mnemic> ty NickGarvey for the tip ;)
[03:53] <systemofadown> the kind that wall and write use
[03:53] <ds[de] > LogicalDash; I know, I sort of have the same problem but since noone else but me uses this computer I kept it this way (777)
[03:53] <vook> ag0g0girl, does right click do nothing?
[03:53] <ds[de] > LogicalDash; If you find a better solution, please let me know =)
[03:53] <vook> ag0g0girl, oops, sorry
[03:53] <LogicalDash> ds[de] : Sure thing.
[03:53] <Davey> what is the easiest way to migrate my linux install to another hard disk?
[03:54] <vook> ag0g0girl, what about control-click?
[03:54] <NickGarvey> katarot: I have never got my broadcom card to work with wireless
[03:54] <ag0g0girl> right clicks do nothing without knowing what keys to press...I'm new to linux
[03:54] <te_iubesc> _jason when you sai uncoment you mean deleted?
[03:54] <ag0g0girl> no menus
[03:54] <NickGarvey> be right back
[03:54] <katarot> nickgarvey: yeah but this is a native driver for linux
[03:55] <_jason> te_iubesc: commented lines start with ``#'', just remove the ``#'' in front.  Do not touch the lines with ``##''
[03:55] <te_iubesc> thanks
[03:55] <vook> ag0g0girl, I want to help, but I'm trying to picture a mac keyboard.  Let me see if there's a mac ubuntu IRC channel
[03:55] <aszurom> I'm the mayor of frustration city
[03:55] <NickGarvey> katarot: mm hope you are lucky then
[03:55] <ag0g0girl> that would be cool wooki
[03:55] <NickGarvey> aszurom: I'm the secretary
[03:55] <ag0g0girl> thanks much

[03:57] <pvd2006> I used multiple wildcards
[03:57] <_jason> te_iubesc: wait, nope.  First do sudo apt-get update
[03:57] <ag0g0girl> how did you do that pwd
[03:57] <pvd2006> to make it as fast as possible
[03:57] <aszurom> baquero22: Perhaps I can help you some
[03:57] <te_iubesc> wee i'm starting to learn :)
[03:57] <katarot> nickgarvey: could you help me with this http://pastebin.com/608510
[03:57] <dli__> if I boot ubuntu livecd, can I use it to resize partitions?
[03:57] <te_iubesc> aaa
[03:57] <te_iubesc> :)
[03:57] <te_iubesc> okay
[03:57] <pvd2006> Im going to learn how to write a script now
[03:57] <pvd2006> lol
[03:57] <pvd2006> to automate all that
[03:58] <aszurom> baquero22, did you set up evdev and such?
[03:58] <baquero22> ok my forward and backward bottoms are working as the scroll bottom
[03:58] <te_iubesc> i hope i will have enough space
[03:58] <_jason> pvd2006: so I take it the for loop failed as well?
[03:58] <baquero22> and the scroll is doing the backward and forward
[03:58] <NeverDream> Superslash, do you happen to have an IDE drive installed alongside the SATA drive?
[03:58] <pvd2006> _jason, I didnt try that
[03:58] <_jason> pvd2006: oh
[03:58] <pvd2006> I dont know how to write a shell script.
[03:58] <pvd2006> lol
[03:58] <aszurom> ok, but the regular two buttons and the wheel work ok, right?
[03:58] <aszurom> I've been in logitech mouse hell for about 8 hours now
[03:59] <baquero22> yes after trying the instructions of the forum the bottoms are working
[03:59] <baquero22> just not right
[03:59] <aszurom> ok, that's likely EASY to fix
[03:59] <aszurom> wish mine was
[03:59] <Mnemic> If i want to use another PHP5 version (with zend support) how can i update the corrent one ? o0
[03:59] <zoexii> hello, my recent upgrade to dapper has just exploded in my face... can I get a bit of help making Xorg and my network work?  I believe there is a problem with my nvidia driver... such are the errors that are returned from Xserver.  Also errors concerning the configuration of the mouse...  I would reinstall nvidia driver, but aptitude says: "
[03:59] <_jason> pvd2006: for i in *.NASL; do rm $i; done, you would change rm to sudo rm if you need sudo
[03:59] <baquero22> lollll soo what file do i have to edit
[04:00] <aszurom> pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 8 9 10 4 5
[04:00] <aszurom> in .xmodmap I think
[04:00] <baquero22> thats for me aszurum right??
[04:00] <zoexii> whoa, keyboard konfusion...  I need a kvm switch.
[04:00] <aszurom> yes
[04:00] <_jason> aszurom: which logitech mouse?
[04:00] <aszurom> I have an MX1000
[04:01] <aszurom> he has a 700
[04:01] <_jason> aszurom: are you using breezy?
[04:01] <baquero22> MX700
[04:01] <wastrel> ubuntu
[04:01] <pvd2006> _jason that is the whole script?
[04:01] <baquero22> ok let me try
[04:01] <aszurom> baquero, basically either in xmodmap pointers or the xbindkeyrc, not sure which, the button numbers are set in the wrong order
[04:01] <_jason> pvd2006: I don't know if it will still complain, I pasted it before but you must have missed it.  I was jsut wondering if it would work
[04:01] <aszurom> yes, breezy
[04:02] <pvd2006> But that is the whole script right?
[04:02] <_jason> ubotu: tell aszurom about mx1000
[04:02] <aszurom> I was thinking about doing dist-upgrade to drake, but I doubt it'll fix this
[04:02] <_jason> ubotu: tell baquero22 about logitech
[04:02] <aszurom> _jason, one thing... I have it working 100%
[04:02] <pvd2006> thats some easy scripting, lol
[04:02] <baquero22> pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 8 9 10 4 5
[04:02] <baquero22> aszurom in .xmodmap I think
[04:02] <vook> ag0g0girl, so far all I could recommend would be #debianPPC, they could probably help
[04:02] <baquero22> xmodmap where is t hat?
[04:03] <aszurom> _jason, my problem is that if I unplug and replug the mouse, gnome loses it
[04:03] <_jason> aszurom: oops just read your actual problem, take a look at page 10 of the forum thread in ubotu's link.  That may help you
[04:03] <Superslash> neverdream: sorry, had to check on the brownies. No i have no IDE drive. just a single 200gig SATA
[04:03] <aszurom> #$% kvm switch
[04:03] <zoexii> ok, very simple question, please help... what can it mean if attempt to open sftp connection returns: "PRNG is not seeded" ??
[04:03] <aszurom> baq, it's in /home/baquero22/.xmodmaprc
[04:03] <_jason> aszurom: actually, to prevent confusion I'll get you the link, one sec
[04:03] <vook> ag0g0girl, egats, it's quiet there though.
[04:03] <Clio> hello
[04:03] <baquero22> and how to run a terminal as root???
[04:03] <baquero22> being in another account?
[04:04] <Clio> i'm trying to set my ip address statically, how do i do that?
[04:04] <zoexii> open xterm, sudo -s
[04:04] <baquero22> im new to this thing... but having fun haha
[04:04] <xsquared> hi, i just bought a new 200gb SATA hard drive. I am wondering, how is it possible to make it so that my home directory is on that drive?
[04:04] <zoexii> baquero22, open xterm sudo -s
[04:04] <aszurom> erm... actually that's .bindkeysrc not modmap
[04:04] <baquero22> bindkeysrc????
[04:04] <baquero22> where is that
[04:04] <baquero22> at
[04:04] <_jason> aszurom: http://floam.sh.nu/guides/mx1000 explains how to create udev rules
[04:04] <Clio> is there a howto for setting one's IP statically?
[04:05] <_jason> aszurom: have no idea if that will solve your problem but it may help
[04:05] <zoexii> xsquared, create directory on drive,
[04:05] <ds[de] > xsquared; edit your /etc/fstab accordingly after you copied the files that are in your /home directory right now onto the new drive
[04:05] <dli__> Clio, /etc/network/interfaces
[04:05] <zoexii> xsquared, set mount point in fstab to /home
[04:05] <Clio> dli__: and turn dhcp off ?
[04:05] <xsquared> okay
[04:05] <xsquared> thanks guys
[04:05] <baquero22> ok i have more questions
[04:05] <aszurom> baquero22, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=351974&postcount=7
[04:05] <neoginn> any one know when dapper is due out? and does anyone know if there is an OpenOffice IRC channel?
[04:06] <aszurom> that's specifically for the x700
[04:06] <baquero22> with the new kernel is possible to write in nfts disks???
[04:06] <_jason> neoginn: #openoffice.org iirc
[04:06] <aszurom> dapper is June now I think
[04:06] <Clio> dli__: how do i set the IP then, i removed DHCP
[04:06] <neoginn> thanks jason
[04:06] <aszurom> but you can get it now if you want
[04:06] <Mortuis> Does anyone here use pterm?
[04:06] <xsquared> zoexii: do i have to put the /home directory in that drive?
[04:06] <xsquared> or the contents of it?
[04:06] <dli__> Clio, you'd better "man interfaces"
[04:06] <Clio> dli__: ok thanks
[04:06] <matt_> Can anyone help me with a wuodlibet plugin?  I can't find the /.quodlibet/plugins folder..
[04:07] <aszurom> if you change "breezy" to "dapper" in your sources.list then apt-get dist-upgrade, you're on dapper in about 1.5 hours
[04:07] <dli__> Clio, sorry, I'm not on ubuntu myself :(
[04:07] <Clio> dli__ : no worries, thanks a bunch
[04:07] <Cooner750> Is it possible to install Ubuntu to a external USB drive and actually get it to work?
[04:07] <baquero22> what about the kernel?
[04:07] <matt_> Anyone use quodlibet?
[04:07] <zoexii> xsquared, put the contents of your current /home directory in that drive... then set the mount point of that partition to be /home
[04:07] <dli__> Cooner750, I do that in gentoo :)
[04:07] <NickGarvey> xsquared: trying to move the HD where /home is?
[04:08] <NickGarvey> xsquared: thats what I do, its very easy
[04:08] <zoexii> xsquared, that is put contents of /home into the root directory of the hard drive.
[04:08] <xsquared> NickGarvey, yeah, i only have a 30gb root drive
[04:08] <NickGarvey> xsquared: I'll show you a sample fstab if you want
[04:08] <xsquared> i just bought a 200gb
[04:08] <pvd2006> thunderstorm
[04:08] <xsquared> okay, thanks
[04:08] <pvd2006> bye
[04:08] <Cooner750> I was just wondering, because I get the error "/dev/sda2 does not exist! Dropping to shell" when trying to boot a USB-installed Breezy
[04:08] <baquero22> whats a good text editor??
[04:08] <_jason> baquero22: vim
[04:08] <baquero22> cuz editor is just to old
[04:08] <xsquared> baquero22, jed, nano
[04:08] <aszurom> I second the question about NTFS writing... can you do that safely in ubuntu?  I've got a 300 gig external drive I'd love to interact with
[04:08] <dli__> Cooner750, you can do it in ubuntu also :) basically, you need to install grub to the disk, and figure out grub.conf
[04:09] <matt_> Guys, I am supposed to put a file in ~/.quodlibet/plugins.. where is that?
[04:09] <xsquared> aszurom, no.
[04:09] <slink> Hi guys, I have a question
[04:09] <NickGarvey> http://pastebin.com/608524
[04:09] <_jason> matt_: ~ is the same as /home/your_username/ in general
[04:09] <xsquared> thanks NickGarvey
[04:09] <zoexii> slink, don't ask to ask, just ask.
[04:09] <NickGarvey> xsquared: I have quotas on though
[04:09] <dli__> Cooner750, and basically, you "cp -a /usr /mnt/usb/root/"
[04:09] <NeverDream> Superslash, have you tried the gparted trick yet?
[04:10] <slink> I just installed linux on my old comp, and when it loads, there are lines on the screen (vertical about 2 inches apart) what do i do?
[04:10] <Cooner750> The BIOS of the computer is USB-boot capable, so should I install a copy of Grub to the external USB drive aswell (it has two partitions on it, one FAT32 for WinXP backup and documents, and a 6GB Ext3 (where Ubuntu is)
[04:10] <xsquared> NickGarvey, what is quotas?
[04:10] <NickGarvey> !quota
[04:10] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[04:10] <NickGarvey> !info quota
[04:10] <xsquared> limiting how much people store?
[04:10] <zoexii> slink, could it be the monitor?
[04:10] <ubotu> quota: (implementation of the disk quota system), section admin, is optional. Version: 3.13-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 388 kB, Installed size: 1160 kB
[04:10] <NickGarvey> xsquared: excatly
[04:10] <xsquared> ahhh.
[04:10] <xsquared> cool
[04:10] <baquero22> so is not possible to write on NTFS???
[04:10] <NickGarvey> I have a small HD so I don't want some arse to fill it with some movie
[04:10] <xsquared> baquero22, no.
[04:10] <NickGarvey> baquero22: no, FAT32 yes though
[04:10] <slink> zoexii, it could be, but it didn't do it when windows was on it
[04:10] <aszurom> hrm...
[04:10] <dli__> baquero22, read about captive-ntfs
[04:10] <Superslash> neverdream: what part of "The livecd isnt loading" have you not understood?
[04:11] <NickGarvey> !ntfs
[04:11] <ubotu> ntfs is probably the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[04:11] <NeverDream> ohhh
[04:11] <Superslash> speaking of which, it just finished what it was doing
[04:11] <zoexii> slink, what video card do you have?
[04:11] <baquero22> people just start to be freak about installing the OS in flash memories hehehe
[04:11] <aszurom> too bad XP can't just read XFS
[04:11] <nazgulwalker> how can i install a downloaded xml theme file
[04:11] <aszurom> nyuk nyuk
[04:11] <Healot> baquero22, with the default linux driver, nay, with some tweak/unsupported drivers out there, Yay
[04:11] <slink> zoexii, imbedded intel graphics, its an old dell computer
[04:11] <Superslash> now i've got funny noises coming from my comp and a corrupted screen
[04:11] <NeverDream> :S
[04:11] <baquero22> hey what about ubuntu in my psp2
[04:11] <baquero22> could be nice
[04:12] <NeverDream> Superslash, are you sure you're using the right version for your comp?
[04:12] <Superslash> yellow at the top, a stripe in the middle, blue at the bottom
[04:12] <Superslash> no
[04:12] <Superslash> using breezy 5.10
[04:12] <katarot> how long would it take me to upgrade to dapper
[04:12] <Superslash> livecd
[04:12] <zoexii> slink, do you have any spare cards you could try in its place?
[04:12] <slink> zoe, no I don't
[04:12] <dabaR> katarot: years
[04:12] <NeverDream> Superslash, which x86? x86_64?
[04:12] <slink> all i have is that and 3 laptops

[04:13] <katarot> ok well ill forget that idea
[04:13] <NickGarvey> baquero22: yes thats very easy to install on a USB
[04:13] <NeverDream> Superslash, did you try booting linux acpi=off ?
[04:13] <Cooner750> I already have Grub on the Internal drive w/ XP, how do I get rid of it there?
[04:13] <iG-Shoot-Me> Alright, I finally got ubuntu working, but I am not online..
[04:13] <iG-Shoot-Me> How do I get online?
[04:13] <NickGarvey> baquero22: can be run inside of windows also, I use it during school
[04:13] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: wireless, wired, or dial up?
[04:13] <zoexii> slink, sounds like a problem with the driver for the video card... if you can determine the exact model #... what driver is Xserver using?
[04:13] <jjs0ah> katarot: it took me an hour with a broadband connection.
[04:13] <iG-Shoot-Me> Uh, cable through modem, NickGarvey

[04:15] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, im on windows right now, so it works

[04:16] <iG-Shoot-Me> katarot: yeah
[04:16] <ds[de] > is anyone else having trouble connecting to icq?
[04:16] <wastrel> Cooner750:  you can probably download a windows rescue disk - google for it.
[04:16] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, :P
[04:16] <zoexii> sudo eject hda
[04:16] <slink> How do you check to see what video drivers are loaded
[04:16] <zoexii> ho, wrong window.
[04:16] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey: So how?
[04:17] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: do you have 2 computers by any chance?
[04:17] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: hard to trouble shoot inbetween 5 min reboots
[04:17] <katarot> ig-shoot-me: are you directly connected to the modem
[04:17] <Cooner750> So I need to: Wipe GRUB on the internal drive with the FIXMBR command, Then reinstall to the external, following this guide
[04:17] <Cooner750> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80811

[04:17] <slashzero> has anyone set up xdmcp in ubuntu?
[04:18] <NickGarvey> slashzero: yup
[04:18] <NickGarvey> slashzero: I set it up 15 min ago
[04:18] <NeverDream> Superslash, are you doing the default install? iirc, there's something you have to do to set up the partitions, by defualt it uses the whole drive
[04:18] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: so could you talk to me with one and use ubuntu on another?
[04:18] <slashzero> NickGarvey, ah, did you just turn it on in gdm?
[04:18] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, I said I cant get online on one :P
[04:18] <NeverDream> Superslash, there should be an option in the installer to use the largest contiguous area of free space
[04:18] <katarot> ig-shoot-me: plug the computer with ubuntu on it directly into the modem
[04:18] <NeverDream> Superslash, see if you can find it
[04:18] <NickGarvey> and is that the one with ubuntu on it?
[04:18] <Superslash> neverdream: are you reading what i'm saying? I'm booting the latest 5.10 livecd
[04:19] <NickGarvey> slashzero: then start gdmsetup and go to security and make sure its checked
[04:19] <NeverDream> Superslash, were you not trying to install it?

[04:19] <Healot> slashzero, just enables it in "Login Screen Setup", and then try to connect from other computer...
[04:19] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, MM
[04:19] <NeverDream> Superslash, my impression was you were booting the livecd to try and run gparted
[04:19] <Superslash> neverdream: exactly
[04:19] <baconbacon> slink, what do you see before the screen blanks
[04:19] <Superslash> thats what i'm trying to do right now
[04:19] <NeverDream> Superslash, but I'm thinking you may not have to
[04:19] <captine> anyone here running ubuntu off a laptop.  If so, is it easy to get all the hardware working i.e. irda etc
[04:20] <slink> Bacon, what do you mean blanks?
[04:20] <wastrel> depends on the laptop
[04:20] <katarot> ig-shoot-me: then boot it up and go to network and you will see eth1 go on to it and change so your not using a static ip
[04:20] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, Erm, how are we going ot help me? :P
[04:20] <nickgarvey2> iG-Shoot-Me: hmm
[04:20] <Superslash> neverdream: ok, so then i'll need a hand-holding walkthrough to do so because i'm an absolute n00b
[04:20] <slink> Bacon, my screen has a bunch of vertical lines
[04:20] <baconbacon> ok
[04:20] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, I need a static IP
[04:20] <wastrel> !tell captine about laptop
[04:20] <iG-Shoot-Me> I mean
[04:20] <iG-Shoot-Me> katarot
[04:20] <nickgarvey2> iG-Shoot-Me: yes! yes you do
[04:20] <nickgarvey2> iG-Shoot-Me: do you know how to do that? thats the same prob I have
[04:20] <baconbacon> try ctrl-alt-f1
[04:20] <ericmoritz\0> NickGarvey, that's what I thought,.. hmm I guess my wireless router is blocking the query or something
[04:20] <baconbacon> but wait
[04:21] <iG-Shoot-Me> nickgarvey2, No, figuring that out now :)
[04:21] <nickgarvey2> slink: same thing with my laptop, I gave up and uninstalled because I couldn't get internet (didn't know I needed static at the time)
[04:21] <katarot> ig-shoot-me: im using ubuntu on broadband just now
[04:21] <nickgarvey2> iG-Shoot-Me: let me google it
[04:21] <Mnemic> Anybody know how can i get TCL
[04:21] <NeverDream> superslash, let me boot up the disc
[04:21] <Superslash> neverdream: livecd or installcd?
[04:21] <slink> bacon,ok im there, it took me to the terminal right"
[04:21] <slink> ?
[04:21] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, I need to be online and with my static IP
[04:21] <baconbacon> yes
[04:21] <Healot> I am on "not-so-broad-but-fast-enough" band
[04:21] <katarot> and then nickgarvey can walk you thourgh it
[04:21] <wastrel> Mnemic:  sudo aptitude install tcl   ?
[04:21] <NeverDream> Superslash, install

[04:22] <slink> bacon, ok now what
[04:22] <baconbacon> you can login from there
[04:22] <slink> i did
[04:22] <wastrel> Mnemic:  actually the package name is tcl8.4
[04:22] <slink> how do i check my drivers or whatever to fix it
[04:22] <iG-Shoot-Me> Somebody want to help me?
[04:22] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: here is my /etc/network/interface file
[04:22] <NickGarvey> http://pastebin.com/608542
[04:22] <baconbacon> run cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[04:22] <baconbacon>  you should have 3-4 lines from it
[04:23] <Healot> iG-Shoot-Me, you need to setup the IP itself, either edit /etc/network/interfaces, or use GUI tools in GNOME or KDE
[04:23] <Clio_> when i go to system->administration, it asks me for a root password, but i usually just sudo in terminal, its not accepting my user password, what should i do?
[04:23] <Mnemic> thanks wastrel :)))
[04:23] <katarot> ig-shoot-me: i have the same problem i can only get online with ubuntu when i connect directly into the modem
[04:23] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: mind you my gateway is 192.168.2.1, yours may be 192.168.?.1 where ? is smotehing else
[04:23] <NickGarvey> katarot: do what I tell you
[04:23] <slink> bacon, what? it says command not foudn
[04:23] <NickGarvey> katarot: change your /etc/network/interfaces file
[04:23] <iG-Shoot-Me> How do I edit the file?
[04:24] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: open gedit
[04:24] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey how
[04:24] <Mnemic> Still not working wastrel :p
[04:24] <_jason> Clio_: does sudo work?
[04:24] <baconbacon> ? you sure you typed it well :S
[04:24] <NickGarvey> katarot: the DHCP server has problems with ubuntu it seems, and that is needed when you have a router
[04:24] <baconbacon> cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[04:24] <Clio_> jason: yes
[04:24] <Healot> "man interfaces" for further explanations. iG-Shoot-Me
[04:24] <Clio_> jason: but when i enter my password, it stays all greyed out
[04:24] <Healot> it requires root permission to write
[04:24] <baquero22> How do I run again xorg.conf without restarting?
[04:24] <katarot> im using DHCP just now
[04:24] <Clio_> in the gui, i mean

[04:28] <ironman> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[04:28] <Clio_> jason: command not found for gksudo synpatic

[04:30] <Superslash> neverdream: "could not find kernel/vmlinuz"
[04:30] <linkd> slink: with what?
[04:30] <NickGarvey> !helpme
[04:30] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[04:31] <slink> Whenever I boot ubuntu, There are vertical lines all the way across teh screen
[04:31] <slink> the*
[04:31] <slink> it didn't do it in windows
[04:31] <nickgarvey2> slink: laptop right? I fixed that let me find it
[04:31] <ironman> Thank you ubotu!  I'll read for a bit
[04:31] <linkd> sounds like a graphical driver issue
[04:31] <slink> no its on my old desktop
[04:31] <NeverDream> Superslash, is your cd valid? it may be corrupt
[04:31] <slink> im on my laptop right now
[04:31] <_jason> Clio_: sudo aptitude install gksu, but this is strange... did the install finish completely?
[04:31] <Superslash> i'm going to reburn it either way
[04:31] <Superslash> this time at 4x
[04:31] <linkd> slink: do u happen to know what graphic driver ur using atm? (itll be in xorg.conf)
[04:31] <ajnewbold> what is GTK?
[04:32] <slink> how do i check xorg.conf
[04:32] <linkd> ajnewbold: its a graphical library
[04:32] <slink> this is my first day with linux
[04:32] <linkd> slink: do u know how to open a terminal?
[04:32] <slink> I'm sorry
[04:32] <slink> ctrl alt f1?
[04:32] <ajnewbold> linkd: is it responsible for the look and feel of gnome?
[04:32] <Clio_> jason: yes it did, but that wont work as i'm offline, you see
[04:32] <NickGarvey> slink: let me check it, I had the same prob and fixed it
[04:32] <NeverDream> GTK = the most rockin' graphical library ever inscribed!
[04:32] <maximaus> Gimp Tool Kit
[04:32] <imperfect-> Good lord there are a lot of people here.
[04:32] <slink> k
[04:32] <Madpilot> slink, Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[04:32] <linkd> ajnewbold: gtk was designed by the gimp guys, which iirc have some association with gnome (cant remember) so yea
[04:32] <imperfect-> Anyone know how I can get the latest nvidia binary drivers on a fresh install of 5.10 when X is being stupid?
[04:32] <slink> k its open
[04:33] <_jason> Clio_: it should probably be available through the cdrom, just add the cdrom repository if it isn't there already with apt-cdrom
[04:33] <ajnewbold> I'm trying to install a theme and having a rough time, and I think I have to do something with a gtk, but don't even know where to start, heh
[04:33] <Clio_> jason: ok lemme look for it
[04:33] <linkd> slink: ok bare with me, im in alot of convos at once
[04:33] <michaelDK> well gnight folks its bedtime for me 4.35 am here in Denmark, but be back soon cya all
[04:33] <slink> linkd: its alright lol
[04:33] <_jason> Clio_: this was a standard install? (just curious about how this error occurred)
[04:33] <NickGarvey> slink: The graphical login will fail: Add 'Option"NoAccel"' (minus the single-quote marks) to the Device Section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:33] <NickGarvey> slink: that is how I fixed it for me
[04:33] <linkd> less /etc/X11/xorg.conf # and somewhere you should see a "Device" section and itll have a driver directive
[04:33] <ajnewbold> like I've got this "gtk" dir with lots of things in it, but I'm not sure where to put it or how to make them appear
[04:33] <slink> nick: how the heck do i do that lol
[04:34] <Clio_> jason: well, my friend came over with the cd, installed it and it all worked, now its gone offline, i dont have the cd
[04:34] <sline_crecature> ajnewbold, open your theme window and drag the theme folder onto it
[04:34] <ajnewbold> sline_crecature, too easy :-) thanks!
[04:34] <Clio_> jason: so i plugged my laptop directly into the router but i gotta get that desktop back online as the lappy goes back tomorrow
[04:34] <sline_crecature> any time
[04:34] <nickgarvey2> gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:34] <mmiikkee12> would ubuntu, in its nearly infinite user friendliness, be able to get around this stupid problem with the x server: http://pastebin.com/608530
[04:35] <mmiikkee12> (that's from debian
[04:35] <Clio_> jason brb
[04:35] <nickgarvey2> find the device section and put "Option NoAccel"
[04:35] <linkd> slink: to do what NickGarvey said, type "pico -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf" # pgdown to scroll down, pgup for up, and just type to edit, ctrl + o to write, ctrl + x to exist
[04:35] <Madpilot> slink, in a terminal, type "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" - that'll open a text editor
[04:35] <linkd> sorry if i typed that abit late
[04:35] <sline_crecature> if that doesn't work, btw, you can put the folder in your .themes folder directly i think
[04:35] <baquero22> ok now my mouse work
[04:35] <Madpilot> linkd, you need sudo to edit xorg.conf
[04:35] <NickGarvey> yeah
[04:35] <ajnewbold> sline_crecature, well, it's weird, I kept getting these "invalid file format" messages but it switched to the theme anyway :-)
[04:36] <ironman> I'm trying to create a folder in usr/local but I get a Permission denied
[04:36] <EnsilZah> Thanks Healot, could you also tell me how to change the refresh rate only for the login screen?
[04:36] <katarot> hey is it true that dapper works with broadcom cards
[04:36] <sline_crecature> ajnewbold, heh yeah i get that sometimes too
[04:36] <linkd> Madpilot: yea fair point, but i was also working on the assumption he had no X for gedit too
[04:36] <slink> ok i did what linkd said
[04:36] <baquero22> i was changing the things int he sh before reloading the xserver
[04:36] <NickGarvey> oo thas ugly mmiikkee12
[04:36] <ds[de] >  ironman: try sudo mkdir <dirname>
[04:36] <slink> and it brought me to a white screen with some options on the bottom
[04:36] <Madpilot> Ironhand, why are you trying to add stuff in root's area?
[04:36] <NickGarvey> !dapper
[04:36] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[04:36] <ironman> Madpiplot: I'm trying to install Firefox 1.5
[04:36] <linkd> slink: did u look for a part in the config which says "Section "Device""?
[04:36] <ajnewbold> sline_crecature, actually, it didn't install it; I just clicked on another theme by accident, heh
[04:36] <Superslash> neverdream: redownloading the ISO from a different mirror

[04:37] <NeverDream> Superslash, k
[04:37] <sline_crecature> ajnewbold, oh, well then did you try copying the folder into your .themes folder?
[04:37] <NickGarvey> slink: you need to put sudo in front of what linkd said
[04:37] <ironman> What's with the sudo command anywyas?
[04:37] <NeverDream> Superslash, the torrent works well ;)
[04:37] <slink> how do i get out of here then
[04:37] <Madpilot> ironman, it gives you admin/root privs
[04:37] <ajnewbold> sline_crecature, not yet.... there are so many subfolders... should I just copy the main folder into .themes?
[04:37] <linkd> slink: ctrl +o ctrl + x
[04:37] <ironman> ahh
[04:37] <Superslash> neverdream: i get about 1kbps from the torrent
[04:37] <linkd> slink: thatll save and exit

[04:38] <ajnewbold> sline_crecature, ah, yeah, one of the folders does -- cool, I'll mess with that

[04:39] <robert__> can someone tell me the advantages between automatix and easyubuntu
[04:39] <NickGarvey> !automatix
[04:39] <ubotu> hmm... automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[04:39] <slink> error writing /etc/x11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory

[04:39] <NickGarvey> !easyubuntu
[04:39] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu

[04:40] <tapox> Alright, so I keep unmounting my two Fat32 drives whenever Ubuntu starts, then I reboot, they reappear. Any way to stop this evil mounting of those drives at boot, without toying with fstab?
[04:40] <slink> ok now what guys?
[04:40] <linkd> slink: did u find the config or is it still missing?
[04:40] <_jason> linkd: good reasoning
[04:41] <kicker_> baquero22
[04:41] <slink> where would config be
[04:41] <kicker_> necesito ayuda
[04:41] <tapox> And secondly, how do I modify the GRUB boot menu?
[04:41] <tapox> (I'm on Dapper, fwiw)
[04:41] <Madpilot> !tell kicker_ about es
[04:41] <kicker_>  soy novato
[04:41] <_jason> tapox: fstab is the way to go, put /etc/fstab on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and link here if you want people to take a look
[04:41] <linkd> slink: right ok, you can try locating the config, many ways to do this, the way i prefer is typing "sudo find / -name xorg.conf" itll list afew results
[04:41] <NickGarvey> tapox: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:42] <EnsilZah> Anyone, any suggestions on changing monitor refresh rate on login screen?
[04:42] <baquero22> so i need some help
[04:42] <linkd> slink: other people might suggest "locate xorg.conf" its a preference thing i think
[04:42] <baquero22> i found that
[04:42] <baquero22> my linux ubuntu just run so fast....
[04:42] <tapox> _jason, NickGarvey , thanks for your help!
[04:42] <NickGarvey> tapox: make a backup first though, cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.old
[04:42] <NickGarvey> :)
[04:42] <sline_crecature> i have a similar question to tapox, as i have 2 hard drives
[04:42] <baquero22> trying to figure out a good antivirus to get that shit out of my system
[04:42] <slink> Linkd: so do i exit out of where im at to do that?
[04:42] <NickGarvey> !language
[04:42] <ubotu> somebody said language was please watch your language; we try to be nice and help, but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[04:42] <sline_crecature> my boot drive is hdb, to switch it to hda all i need to edit is fstab and grub.conf?
[04:43] <linkd> slink: ctrl+x
[04:43] <NeverDream> !shiznit
[04:43] <ubotu> NeverDream: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

[04:44] <slink> uhh
[04:44] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: did you do what I had?

[04:45] <bedi> any help is wcm :)
[04:45] <slink> breezy badger
[04:45] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey: Yes, but iwht my IP
[04:45] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: because yous houldnt have copied and pasted
[04:45] <Zarephath> NickGarvey: Ok..so why isn't there an /etc/inetd.conf file for starters..and is it supposed to run from a new install?
[04:45] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, I didnt
[04:45] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: could you copy what your file says into the paste bin
[04:45] <ErUpT> shit i had WindowsXP but that shit was tearing my computer apart so i had to get something better and i found it
[04:45] <linkd> slink: right, hmm, and thats the only result find returns? if so i suggest just opening pico again and just seeing if it looks "right"
[04:45] <NickGarvey> Zarephath: what do you need to do what the file?
[04:45] <wastrel> bedi:  dapper channel is #ubuntu+1
[04:45] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, it was exactly like yours except with my numbers
[04:45] <baquero22> is the ubuntu for powerpc performing better than panther????
[04:45] <slink> linkd: i dont know what right is..
[04:45] <ironman> OK, where do I untar the FF1.5 file I downloaded?
[04:45] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey, it works for windows, but not unbunt.. Odd
[04:46] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: yeah I want to check the numbers
[04:46] <kicker_> I need help, have the case installed ubuntu on an independent disc of windows it(he,she) is that it(he,she) erases(smears) the session KDE and it(he,she) was as primary, gnome at the time me does not work the terminal.
[04:46] <kicker_> ? Now is my question like to reinstall ubuntu without losing my documents?
[04:46] <_jason> ubotu: tell ironman about ff1.5
[04:46] <linkd> slink: as a newbie i guess thatll be hard, im sorry im not more help, but i cant really validate what ur config looks like, tho, hold on ill post my config as an example so u can see.
[04:46] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey: Here goes my restart
[04:46] <Zarephath> dude I need inetd running and it isn't since vmware server can't find it, or the file...secondly I don't see it running as a service so?
[04:46] <ds[de] > ironman: whereever you want, that's up to you
[04:46] <slink> k
[04:46] <NickGarvey> Zarephath: its in /usr/sbin
[04:46] <linkd> slink: http://www.nullnetwork.net/paste/viewpaste.php?id=236
[04:47] <linkd> slink: thats what an example xorg.conf looks like
[04:47] <baquero22> someone know a good place to get fresh .deb packages?????
[04:47] <ironman> and it'll automatically find it?
[04:47] <dabaR> kicker_: make separate partitions next time you install. Separate partition for /, and /home.
[04:47] <ironman> (sheesh, I'm confused)
[04:47] <nalioth> baquero22: make them from scratch?
[04:47] <ds[de] > no but you can add a link to your menu manually
[04:47] <slink> Linkd" thats what mine liooks like
[04:47] <Zarephath> NickGarvey: Ok thanks
[04:47] <linkd> slink: basically u need to find the Section "Device" part and add an option to that, according to what NickGarvey said
[04:47] <NickGarvey> kicker_: have a CD? you can copy them to the cd, unless you have an insanely large amount of things
[04:47] <baquero22> from scratch??
[04:47] <NickGarvey> no problem
[04:47] <baquero22> no idea what ur talking about
[04:48] <NickGarvey> baquero22: apt-get?
[04:48] <ds[de] > ironman: are you using gnome?
[04:48] <slink> Linkd: InputDevice?
[04:48] <linkd> speaking of which, NickGarvey could u repeat what option u suggested adding? my scrollback isnt long enough? (in reference to slink's problem u seemed to have a solution for)
[04:48] <linkd> slink: no the one below that (on my example)
[04:48] <NickGarvey> linkd: you have the lines?
[04:48] <slink> linkd: foudn it
[04:48] <baquero22> o yes but where to get the names???
[04:48] <nalioth> baquero22: you may compile source code into a .deb yourself
[04:48] <baquero22> like the names of the packages and a description
[04:48] <slink> linkd: what do i add?
[04:48] <ironman> Excuse the ignorance, but I think it's Ubuntu?
[04:48] <NickGarvey> linkd: Option"NoAccel"
[04:48] <wastrel> baquero22:  use synaptic, you can browse like a menu
[04:49] <linkd> NickGarvey: i've walked him thru finding and editing his config, but i forgot ur option
[04:49] <linkd> NickGarvey: thanks
[04:49] <dabaR> kicker_: otherwise, search for backup and recovery Ubuntu on a search engine if noone has a better idea.
[04:49] <baquero22> yes yes i know but wasnt sure that synaptic was complete enought
[04:49] <slink> Linkd: thanks
[04:49] <linkd> slink: NickGarvey suggests u add "Option "NoAccel"" within that section
[04:49] <fluxt> are dvds written on +r or -r discs?
[04:49] <wastrel> baquero22:  did you add the universe & multiverse ?
[04:49] <ds[de] > ironman: that's correct, ubuntu is the operating system, but gnome (or kde or xfce) is a desktop manager
[04:49] <Madpilot> baquero22, Synaptic's got every package in your repos
[04:49] <nalioth> fluxt: both
[04:49] <dabaR> fluxt: either.
[04:49] <baquero22> i dont know about that multiverse
[04:49] <slink> Linkd: so just like this:    Option    NoAccel
[04:49] <slink> ?
[04:49] <baquero22> gonna check right now
[04:49] <linkd> slink: make sure its after the "Section" directive and before the EndSection directive - those are important
[04:49] <Clio> jason: here?
[04:50] <nalioth> ubotu: tell baquero22 about repos
[04:50] <linkd> slink: put the quotes too
[04:50] <baquero22> but it is not possible to get unstable soft right???
[04:50] <fluxt> nalioth: both are suitable for playback in a normal dvdplayer?
[04:50] <wastrel> !tell baquero22 about repos
[04:50] <ironman> Aha.. so how do I know
[04:50] <linkd> slink: like this:   Option    "NoAccel"
[04:50] <dabaR> baquero22: try http://dabar.selfip.org/synaptic.html. it may have the instructions if you are not sure how to add multiverse.
[04:50] <NickGarvey> slink: under devices though!
[04:50] <nalioth> fluxt: the -r are more 'friendly' with set top boxes and other consumer dvd things
[04:50] <ironman> Oh, yes.  It's gno,e
[04:50] <ironman> gnome
[04:50] <fluxt> nalioth: oh ok
[04:50] <NickGarvey> ironman: know what?
[04:51] <ironman> Which desktop manager I'm using
[04:51] <slink> linkd: then restart?
[04:51] <ds[de] > ironman: so did you untar the ff package?
[04:51] <ironman> But I figured out it's gnome
[04:51] <linkd> slink: then ctrl+o to save, ctrl+x to exit, then restart X yes
[04:51] <NickGarvey> yup, ubuntu = gnome
[04:51] <ironman> Yes
[04:51] <linkd> slink: u shouldnt need to restart the OS, just restart X
[04:51] <ironman> I untared it to Desktop
[04:51] <baquero22> and where to get software like to decode my cable tv???
[04:52] <slink> howdo i restart x
[04:52] <ajnewbold> does anyone have any idea where this guy might have found this theme?  http://flickr.com/photos/ponderingteen/60224539/
[04:52] <NickGarvey> slink: ctrl alt backspace
[04:52] <dabaR> slink: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[04:52] <ajnewbold> I've googled and googled and no luck :/
[04:52] <linkd> slink: what ajnewbold said!
[04:52] <NickGarvey> slink: his way is better
[04:52] <ds[de] > ironman: k, now you can add a menu entry by right-clicking on applications (top-bar on the screen), then "edit menus"
[04:52] <baquero22> someone knows a good torrent search engine???
[04:52] <linkd> baquero22: torrentz.com is my favorite
[04:52] <NickGarvey> http://search.bittorrent.com/
[04:53] <NickGarvey> heh
[04:53] <slink> ok now im at a black screen
[04:53] <slink> how do i get back to the gui
[04:53] <ajnewbold> that theme is goregous and I can't find it anywhere :/
[04:53] <linkd> slink: type "startx"
[04:53] <dabaR> slink: what did you use? it should reload for you.
[04:53] <NickGarvey> slink: type gdm
[04:53] <NickGarvey> dabaR: heh he did my way, killed it
[04:53] <linkd> heh
[04:53] <wastrel> i have a report due monday
[04:53] <NickGarvey> (does gdm depend on X or is it started with it?)
[04:53] <slink> still doing it
[04:53] <wastrel> i should work on it.
[04:53] <NickGarvey> wastrel: have fun
[04:53] <slink> no dice :(
[04:54] <linkd> NickGarvey: gdm depends on X, but i think it starts X itself
[04:54] <nalioth> NickGarvey: gdm depends on X
[04:54] <dabaR> slink: just a cursor blinking?
[04:54] <NickGarvey> so startx then gdm?
[04:54] <sline_crecature> ajnewbold, have you looked at gnome-look.org? they have some nice themes
[04:54] <slink> i did startx
[04:54] <dabaR> NickGarvey: no, just restart gdm.
[04:54] <slink> now im at the main screen but the lines are still there
[04:54] <dabaR> slink: in a console?
[04:54] <ajnewbold> sline_crecature, no, I'll check it out now, thanks!
[04:54] <linkd> slink: and nothing at all happened? not even some output?
[04:54] <slink> no im at the GUI
[04:54] <linkd> oh
[04:54] <ironman> I keep getting the Mozilla quality feedback thing like it crashes as soon as I start it
[04:55] <linkd> slink: well that suggests NickGarvey's method didnt work.
[04:55] <linkd> so back to beginning! :P
[04:55] <slink> darn
[04:55] <slink> lol
[04:55] <Madpilot> ironman, with FF 1.5?
[04:55] <ironman> yes
[04:55] <slink> atleast i learned how to get somewhere sort of
[04:55] <slink> lol
[04:55] <linkd> slink: what we can try here is difference drivers, what card are u using?
[04:55] <slink> onboard intel graphics
[04:55] <linkd> hm
[04:55] <jerware> im having trouble compileing a program  what does this error mean?  http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/wAPsjW19.html
[04:55] <linkd> i have no idea what the name of the driver the cooresponds to that is
[04:55] <Madpilot> ironman, FF 1.5 on Breezy is trouble. You're probably better off waiting until Dapper comes out, it'll have 1.5 by default...
[04:56] <linkd> however, i do know of a couple drivers you can still *try* slink
[04:56] <jerware> i read the documentation, and did ./configure and make like it says so
[04:56] <ironman> What's Breezy and Dapper?
[04:56] <slink> alright
[04:56] <linkd> slink: such as vesa (ussually last resort, but ussualy works)
[04:56] <Healot> ironman, your new Best Friends :)
[04:56] <ironman> lol
[04:56] <slink> lol
[04:56] <slink> k
[04:56] <baquero22> i have this MX Duo logitech mouse and keybord and the two bottoms to control the media player dont work
[04:56] <baquero22> no play no stop no pause no next no back
[04:56] <linkd> slink: to change drivers, go back to the device section and there should be a directive which says "Driver" and ubuntu should have already "guess" what it should be
[04:57] <linkd> slink: what is it atm?
[04:57] <baquero22> but the mute and the volume thing is working
[04:57] <ironman> I've been with computers since 1992 and this is the first time I try Linux.  It's humbling,
[04:57] <kicker_> Since I can recover my ubuntu without losing my documents ?
[04:57] <slink> Linkd: Device manager?
[04:57] <wastrel> kicker_:  did you ask on #ubuntu-es ?
[04:57] <Madpilot> ironman, Breezy is the current version of Ubuntu (5.10 or Breezy Badger); the next release will be 6.06 or Dapper Drake
[04:57] <slink> nvm
[04:57] <linkd> slink: nono, on linux, pico ur xorg.conf again, and go to the devices section
[04:58] <baquero22> so ni idea bout my damn keybord?
[04:58] <kicker_> They do not know anything it(he,she) is
[04:58] <ironman> OK, what's the timeframe like?
[04:58] <slink> Linkd: Intel corporation 82815 CGC (chipset graphis controller)
[04:58] <Xenguy> ironman: it will be empowering too, eventually :-)
[04:58] <NickGarvey> baquero22: those prob depend on windows
[04:58] <kicker_> Here it is where the problems solve the whole world shares ideas
[04:58] <ironman> Well, I decided to try it because I was so bored
[04:58] <baquero22> depend on windows???
[04:59] <baquero22> how is that... everything is working
[04:59] <linkd> slink: thats for the driver section? should look something like: Driver    "nv"
[04:59] <slink> Linkd: Driver i810
[04:59] <linkd> slink: ah
[04:59] <NickGarvey> baquero22: those special buttons
[04:59] <jetscreamer> why are you called slink
[04:59] <baquero22> I just want to control my XMMS with those bottoms
[04:59] <linkd> slink: well, what u can try is replace i810 with "vesa"
[04:59] <NickGarvey> iG-Shoot-Me: any luck?
[04:59] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey: Still not online, but I saved my thingy onto a flash so im uploading it
[04:59] <jetscreamer> i take it you don't know that slink came before potato
[04:59] <McQuaid> ok just did a dist-upgrade to dapper. didn't go well
[04:59] <iG-Shoot-Me> NickGarvey: Whats the site again?
[04:59] <Xenguy> jetscreamer: a reference to debian, upon which ubuntu is based :p

[05:03] <linkd> slink: u should of just changed the driver directive so just replace it with i810 again
[05:03] <sline_crecature> slink, you made a backup of xorg.conf before editing it, right? just copy the backup over the edited file
[05:03] <slink> its just a black screen

[05:04] <NickGarvey> Zenethian: use the cheatcodes noapic and nolapic
[05:04] <sline_crecature> did you setup telnet or ssh on it?
[05:04] <Zenethian> o rly
[05:04] <Zenethian> hmmm
[05:04] <imperfect-> I installed the binary nvidia drivers and I'm actually getting a lower resolution-- usually when I install the binary drivers everything works itself out
[05:04] <baquero22> so whats the diference
[05:04] <baquero22> between the shell and the sh
[05:04] <NickGarvey> slink: theres many ways, have a boot cd? we can set it to start in init 3
[05:04] <ironman> Can I access my other drives?
[05:05] <sline_crecature> or you can ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a terminal
[05:05] <NickGarvey> ironman: why yes you can
[05:05] <NickGarvey> !mount
[05:05] <ubotu> from memory, 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

[05:05] <Dr_Willis> nazgulwalker,  those are normally config/data files copy them to the right dir.
[05:05] <sline_crecature> slink, if you only messed with your xorg the text terminals should still work
[05:06] <jerware> apt-get was just working when I was up at school.  now that im home i get these  errors.   here is my sourece.list http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/fq8sQA11.html    is this because im behind a nat device?
[05:06] <slink> sline: well i restarted teh computer, the logon screen came up but then everything is black now
[05:06] <Madpilot> nazgulwalker, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Desktop_EyeCandy
[05:06] <jerware> do i have to forward apt through my linksys router?
[05:06] <sline_crecature> try hitting ctrl-alt-F1 and tell us if you get a login screen
[05:06] <Xenguy> baquero22: gb is using the american people too I hear :p
[05:07] <_jason> jerware: did you run 'sudo apt-get update'?
[05:07] <baquero22> lolll
[05:07] <Madpilot> jerware, the rest of your internet stuff still works thru the router?
[05:07] <jerware> ahh
[05:07] <baquero22> yaya he still trying to figure out what screen saver use
[05:07] <baquero22> to many options he said
[05:08] <Madpilot> baquero22, politics to #ubuntu-offtopic, please
[05:08] <baquero22> thanks thats what i need
[05:09] <Zenethian> argh
[05:09] <alex_ubuntu> Pk now that it's installed, what is next...
[05:10] <ironman> It says to add /dev/hda1 /media/windows ntfs umask=0222 0 0 to the end of the txt file
[05:10] <imperfect-> bah!
[05:10] <NickGarvey> alright I'm out guys
[05:10] <ironman> If I have more than one partition can I add it all to /media/windows or do I need new directories?
[05:10] <NickGarvey> night
[05:10] <imperfect-> I needs 1600x1200
[05:10] <ds[de] > night nick
[05:10] <NickGarvey> ironman: I think you need seperate directories
[05:10] <Hobbsee> ironman: new directories
[05:10] <NickGarvey> night
[05:10] <ironman> OK, thanks
[05:11] <alex_ubuntu> After installing Ubuntu, where do I go to fine tune it
[05:11] <Clio> can anyone help me get online?
[05:11] <Clio> i installed kubuntu and it wont go online
[05:12] <Toma-> i need a hand. all my input devices are going wacky.
[05:12] <sline_crecature> Clio, what does ifconfig say?
[05:13] <ironman> the umask=0222 line can stay the same for the different partitions?
[05:13] <Superslash> neverdream: i've got the new installcd burned
[05:13] <Clio> sline: ifconfg says etho\0 and lo are both up, but i cant go to any sites or anything
[05:13] <Auci> how do i reinstall breezy?
[05:13] <Majd> hey, i messed up my linux-image...now i can't boot into linux...can i fix it?
[05:13] <sline_crecature> hmm...have you tried pinging or tracerting anything?
[05:14] <Toma-> anyone know how to debug a mouse?
[05:14] <Majd> sline_crecature, talkin to me?
[05:14] <Clio> sline: yes, says unknown host
[05:14] <nalioth> Toma-: use flea shampoo on it?
[05:14] <sline_crecature> Majd, sorry i meant clio
[05:14] <Majd> oh
[05:14] <Toma-> *sigh*
[05:14] <_jason> nalioth: that assumes the bugs are fleas
[05:14] <whiter> haha
[05:15] <whiter> whats wrong with it Toma
[05:15] <whiter> whats it doing
[05:15] <Auci> how do i reinstall breezy? i cant install anything.
[05:15] <_jason> Auci: why do you need to reinstall breezy?  it's usually a better idea to try to fix it first
[05:15] <alex_ubuntu> I guess he has a limited sense of humour tonite
[05:15] <Superslash> anyone know the way to tell ubuntu 5.10 to begin installing at the beginning of the largest empty space? because it refuses to recognize that i already have an NTFS partition made
[05:16] <nalioth> Superslash: it should ask you during the install
[05:16] <Superslash> it does, thats the partition manager
[05:16] <Superslash> my problem is that it only sees an empty 200gig hard drive, it cant see any partitions i've made
[05:16] <Dr_Willis> yea - ive always just deleted partitions i dident work. and told it to use existing  empty space.
[05:16] <sline_crecature> Clio, is that machine connected to a router, and if so does the router show dhcp info for it?
[05:16] <Dr_Willis> Superslash,  what did you make them with?
[05:17] <Auci> this is the error that i get, nobody seams to know how to fixt it.  E: /var/cache/apt/archives/login_1%3a4.0.3-37ubuntu8_i386.deb: files list file for package `dmidecode' is missing final newline
[05:17] <whiter> Auci
[05:17] <whiter> on all .deb's you try to install?
[05:17] <Superslash> Dr_willis: theres a single 130gig NTFS partition that i have windowsxp and my games installed to, the other 50gigs is unformatted space
[05:17] <_jason> Auci: what causes that error?
[05:17] <sline_crecature> Majd, btw that is fixable, but i don't know the exact steps to do that off the top of my head
[05:17] <whiter> Toma- what is your mouse adctually doing
[05:18] <Majd> sline_crecature, ok, i'll give google a second try
[05:18] <whiter> Auci: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-12737.html
[05:18] <Auci> yes on all, everytime i download the updates, and when the system is ready to install i get this error. so no updates, i have 24 updates waiting
[05:18] <william> im having problems with streaming video skipping, some video works but others do not
[05:18] <phiber_optic> how come no one can access my web server?
[05:18] <sline_crecature> Majd, if i come across a link i'll put it here
[05:18] <whiter> auci -- http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-12737.html
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> Superslash,  'unformated' or 'unallocated'
[05:18] <Majd> cool, thanks
[05:18] <Auci> thanks
[05:18] <william> its not like i dont have enough bandwith, but there seems to be an error with the codecs or something
[05:18] <nalioth> looks like Toma-s mouse doesnt want to be fixed
[05:19] <_jason> Auci: try 'sudo apt-get clean'
[05:19] <Superslash> Dr_willis: whichever one means it has had absolutely nothing at all done to it, it was left untouched since the last total reformat
[05:19] <Toma-> its not doing anything. it moves, but clicking is beyond it
[05:19] <Toma-> i can open 1 app, then it stops working. no .xsession-errors either
[05:19] <IdleOne> phiber_optic>  Im guessing you didnt forward ports on your router. shot in the dark ;/
[05:20] <phiber_optic> how do I know///
[05:20] <Toma-> nothing in Xorg.0.log or /var/log/messages
[05:20] <phiber_optic> i go to my routers setting...
[05:20] <nalioth> Toma-: is this reproducible with other mice ?
[05:20] <phiber_optic> and I put port 80
[05:20] <william> can someone please hloe me with a codec error
[05:20] <_jason> Toma-: you tried a different mouse?
[05:20] <william> help*
[05:20] <Toma-> i only have 1 mouse...
[05:20] <dabaR> william: what specific error?
[05:20] <nalioth> william: ask a logical question
[05:20] <whiter> william state your problem
[05:20] <Auci> ill try that
[05:20] <nalioth> Toma-: borrow one
[05:20] <Toma-> it is a wireless desktop tho. the batteries are fine
[05:20] <william> im having problems with streaming video skipping, some video works but others do not
[05:20] <Superslash> dr_willis: the real problem is that when i get to the partition management section of the Breezy Badger installation, it doesnt see the 130gig NTFS partition
[05:20] <william> its not like i dont have enough bandwith, but there seems to be an error with the codecs or something
[05:21] <Toma-> ok brb

[05:22] <alex_ubuntu> with all the discussion today about the new gnome, do I need to change my fresh 5.10 install
[05:23] <whiter> new gnome!?
[05:23] <ironman> Is there anyway to get a USB keyboard to work with grub?
[05:23] <sline_crecature> Majd, this may help, it's not exactly the same problem but the solution should be similar: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=142363&highlight=restore+kernel
[05:23] <alex_ubuntu> there was something on the "planet linux??" i think that said a new version was just released..
[05:23] <whiter> ooh, new gnome :P
[05:23] <whiter> anyone gotten gnome 2.14 in a .deb ?
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> Ironhand,  ive seen where on one of my pc's ive had to use a specific usb port for it to work. sadly
[05:24] <cyros> ironman: maybe use a usb->ps/2 converter
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> Ironhand,  it seems to be a bios issue. :(
[05:24] <dabaR> whiter: does google? do you want to break your system? did you check the backports?
[05:24] <alex_ubuntu> how do I tell what is installed and do I need to upgrade to the 2.14
[05:24] <whiter> ...
[05:24] <Toma-> ok, the other USB mouse work fine, after i reconnected this wireless mouse, everything works except 2nd mouse btn
[05:24] <Cooner750> Hello. I finally got Ubuntu on the External USB drive
[05:25] <Cooner750> Now, I need help setting up the wireless connection
[05:25] <sline_crecature> does anyone else have problems with totem freezing when playing files with external subtitles (.srt)? seems to happen when i ff or rw with the arrow keys

[05:26] <ironman> How do I check or update my video drivers?
[05:27] <alex_ubuntu> gotta go ttyl
[05:27] <dabaR> ironman: you have one of nvidia or ati drivers installed?
[05:27] <Superslash> Kind and Wise ubuntians, hast thou Not A Fucking Clue what doth cause my woes?   http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=146204
[05:28] <phiber-optic> IdleOne,  it didnt work any ideas?
[05:28] <Healot> Superslash, I would say GNU/Linux with >120GB is a nay :)
[05:29] <sline_crecature> Superslash, sorry, i can't think of what might cause that. does it work mounting it in a livecd session?
[05:29] <IdleOne> phiber-optic>  nope :/
[05:29] <ironman> dabar: I just installed ubuntu so I assume I have some sort of nvidia driver installed
[05:29] <IdleOne> phiber-optic>  I dont have experience with web servers
[05:29] <dabaR> ironman: why do you think you need to check the driver?
[05:30] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. i put ubuntu on > 120gb hds all the time.
[05:30] <phiber-optic> anyone has any idea why noone can log into my webserver?
[05:30] <Superslash> sline_crecature: i cant run a livecd at all
[05:30] <dabaR> phiber-optic: can you open a browser and get a page on http://localhost on the same comptuer?
[05:30] <ironman> dabar: 'cause I always did in Windows? ;)
[05:30] <Superslash> i spent over 3 hours waiting while "Enterprise volume management system" loaded before getting a corrupted screen
[05:30] <Healot> not his, unfortunately
[05:30] <phiber-optic> dabaR, I get Apache2.04. maine website
[05:31] <ironman> dabar; so are you saying if it ain't broke don't fix it/
[05:31] <ironman> *?
[05:31] <dabaR> ironman: what gtraphics card do you have?
[05:31] <ironman> nvidia 6800
[05:31] <dabaR> phiber-optic: good, do you have port 80 on your router forwarded to the IP address of your computer?
[05:31] <ironman> it seemed like some of the 3d screensavers were going kind of slow
[05:31] <sline_crecature> that certainly is strange, then.
[05:32] <Healot> you should read the HCI of the GNU/Linux distro before attempting to install/run live CD :?
[05:32] <dabaR> Superslash: is the Ubuntu partition past the first 120GB of the drive?
[05:32] <dabaR> !nvidia
[05:32] <ubotu> hmm... nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[05:32] <sline_crecature> i'm actually amazed you had the patience to wait 3 hours before deciding it wasn't working ;)
[05:32] <phiber-optic> dabaR, I have di524, private Ip is the one that I have for muy own computer... bptotocol tcp, private port i put 80 and public port 80
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> :)
[05:32] <Healot> GNU/Linux != Windows :)
[05:33] <Superslash> dabar: why does everyone who reads that post think i have an ubuntu partition when i explicitly say that there IS NO PARTITION AT ALL OTHER THAN THE WINDOWS NTFS PARTITION!
[05:33] <Dr_Willis> GNU/Linux ! > windows
[05:33] <michaelDK> SuperSlash How bout having a sec. mashine to do ubuntu/linux
[05:33] <dabaR> Superslash: cause you are still new at writing questions.
[05:33] <dabaR> phiber-optic: and what is the public IP of the router?
[05:34] <TheGuv> Dr_Willis, your wonderment serves you well
[05:34] <Superslash> dabar: "during the install of Windows XP i left 50gigs of my 200gig hdd unformatted to use for linux. Trying to install ubuntu goes fine (if a little long to load at some points) but it doesnt recognize any partitions. it sees a completely unformated 200gig SATA hdd."
[05:34] <william> im having problems with streaming video skipping, some video works but others do not
[05:34] <Auci> IT didnt work! im still getting the E: /var/cache/apt/archives/login_1%3a4.0.3-37ubuntu8_i386.deb: files list file for package `dmidecode' is missing final newline
[05:34] <Auci>  after I did the  clean command.
[05:34] <Healot> Dr_Willis, I had a good feeling that's SATA drive
[05:34] <dabaR> Superslash: are you saying you have it installed?
[05:34] <phiber-optic> dabaR, wouldnt that be mine own ip?
[05:34] <TheGuv> Superslash, it can be unformatted but still flagged as a linux partition
[05:34] <Cooner750> Oh no. The download link for the windows drivers for my ZyXEL ZyAir G-302  card is broken. Lovely.
[05:34] <AshyIsMe> hello
[05:35] <AshyIsMe> i'm trying to install xgl onto ubuntu 5.10 following these instructions:
[05:35] <dabaR> phiber-optic: it would be what you get when you go to dnsstuff.org in a browser. it is in the top right
[05:35] <AshyIsMe> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto
[05:35] <AshyIsMe> but aptitude cannot find a package named xserver-xgl
[05:35] <TheGuv> Superslash, were you able to burn a new cd?
[05:35] <Superslash> dabar theguv: no, i dont want to risk killing my windows install. and how can i flag the partitions so the ubuntu install will actually see them instead of reporting that i have a completely unformatted 200gig hdd
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> and the problem is? :p
[05:35] <Superslash> theguv: absolutely, got it right here
[05:35] <AshyIsMe> any ideas why?
[05:35] <Cooner750> This is my luck
[05:35] <Healot> AshyIsMe, because tehre isn't any in the default repos...
[05:35] <dabaR> Auci: did you fix your sources.list?
[05:35] <pvd2006> I am having problems with nessus in Ubuntu. When I try to run the client and hit login, I notice it is just halting and I have to force to quit it. This is after I run nessusd to start the server daemon.
[05:36] <TheGuv> Superslash, I think what you'r trying to say is you have one windows partition with 80gb freespace?
[05:36] <phiber-optic> dabar I dont see anything in dnsstuff
[05:36] <TheGuv> 50
[05:36] <Superslash> theguv: thats exactly what i said, several times, very explicitly
[05:36] <william> i have a FAT32 logical partition that i made during the ubuntu installation, where can I mount/see it? its not on my desktop
[05:36] <Auci> ? how, im a newbie in all sense of the word
[05:36] <Superslash> "I have 130gigs formatted as NTFS and 50gigs left as just unformatted space"
[05:36] <dabaR> Superslash: the hard drive is perhaps too big for Ubuntu. I had an issue like that. I would try making a partition closer to the beginning.
[05:36] <Superslash> dabar: oh hell
[05:37] <TheGuv> Superslash, unformatted space and unoccupied space are different
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> william,  if you created it - you will need to format it perhaps. (unless the isntaller did) it should have a entry in /media/
[05:37] <Auci> How do i fix my sources list Dabar?
[05:37] <Superslash> theguv: unformatted. its not ntfs/ext2/anything. i left it completely untouched since my last reformat
[05:37] <phiber-optic> whats is theaddress of pastebin?
[05:37] <dabaR> Auci: "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" post the output of tthat on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and explain what your issue is there as well. Also post output of "cat /etc/issue", please.
[05:37] <dabaR> ^
[05:37] <william> the only thing in /media is cdrom
[05:37] <TheGuv> Superslash, you need to make a partition out of it
[05:37] <nictuku> have you guys heard of nwu? Maybe you'd like to test it. It's a nice project, I think :-) https://dev.ubuntubrasil.org/trac/nwu/wiki
[05:38] <william> but the weird thing is when i use a live cd, it shows the hard drives (both my ntfs and fat32) in /media
[05:38] <dabaR> phiber-optic: dnsstuff.com
[05:38] <dabaR> :-/
[05:38] <Dr_Willis> !pastebin
[05:38] <ds[de] > phiber-optic; pastebin.com ?
[05:38] <Superslash> theguv: i'll try that. use partition magic or something to format that empty space and see if i can get the ubuntu install to recognize it
[05:38] <matthew> I'm a newbie to ubuntu, and I'm trying to install mplayer through synaptic package man,...
[05:38] <matthew> but i keep getting this error: Depends: libartsc0 (>=1.5.0-1) but 1.4.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
[05:38] <matthew> ...plus more.
[05:38] <TheGuv> Superslash, yeah
[05:39] <matthew> ii'm not sure what i'm doing wrong...
[05:39] <TheGuv> -_-U
[05:39] <phiber-optic> dabar idabar... yess thats what i put on my http://66.130.139.130
[05:39] <Superslash> theguv: any chance of getting it to recognize my 130gig windows partition?
[05:39] <TheGuv> it will
[05:39] <phiber-optic> dabar could it be a configuration from apache?
[05:39] <william> i have a FAT32 logical partition that i made during the ubuntu installation, where can I mount/see it? its not on my desktop
[05:39] <Superslash> yaye
[05:39] <Superslash> i'll brb, gtg do that now
[05:39] <william> the only thing in /media is cdrom
[05:39] <william> but the weird thing is when i use a live cd, it shows the hard drives (both my ntfs and fat32) in /media
[05:39] <sline_crecature> william, you can mount it wherever you want
[05:39] <dabaR> phiber-optic: not that I would expect. I expect improper port forwarding.
[05:39] <william> how?
[05:39] <TheGuv> Superslash, when you go to install grub, it will ask you if you want to add Windows XP to the boot menu
[05:40] <ds[de] > matthew: did you try sudo apt-get install libartsc0 ?
[05:40] <TheGuv> Superslash, you'll want to say yes
[05:40] <dabaR> william: it mounts them there, you could easily do the same yourself.
[05:40] <phiber-optic> dabar I just followed the examople
[05:40] <phiber-optic> I found..
[05:40] <william> how do i mount the hard drives?
[05:40] <Dr_Willis> !mount
[05:40] <ubotu> it has been said that 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
[05:40] <phiber-optic> I did the same to port forward ssh and it worked
[05:40] <sline_crecature> william, the usage is mount [partition]  [directory] 
[05:41] <william> partition being? sda2?
[05:41] <matthew> ds[de] : yes. it seems the version I have is newer than what the mplayer dependencies specify...?
[05:41] <matthew> ds[de] : it doesn't seem to like the fact that I have *newer* versions...?!?
[05:42] <dabaR> phiber-optic: you could forward UDP and TCP too, maybe it will make a diff.
[05:42] <sline_crecature> william, yes (though i have no sata and i don't know if it works the same but i assume it does)
[05:42] <dabaR> william: to find out your partitions, you would "sudo fdisk -l"
[05:42] <ds[de] > matthew: that's odd :-/
[05:42] <phiber-optic> I did the same
[05:42] <phiber-optic> it still doest work
[05:43] <irvin> matthew: sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:43] <Auci> Dabar I ran the command but i see nothing on the notepad just blank.
[05:43] <irvin> matthew: then try installing mplayer
[05:43] <dabaR> phiber-optic: I see your ssh is working. I am not sure why it would not work. Are you sure your ISP does not block it? Try a different port in the httpd.conf file under /etc/apache2.
[05:43] <dabaR> Auci: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list?
[05:43] <pvd2006> I notice when I try to use the find command in ubuntu in the terminal it isnt displaying anything
[05:43] <phiber-optic> dabar what port should i change it to
[05:44] <dabaR> phiber-optic: 8080 sounds reasonable
[05:44] <sline_crecature> phiber-optic, try 8080
[05:44] <matthew> irvin: same problem. everything seems up to date.
[05:44] <pvd2006> im trying to figure out a way to find a certain file name throughout my whole filesystem
[05:44] <Auci> I did it and not even 1 letter appeared to save on the notepad
[05:44] <irvin> matthew: hmm... that's odd
[05:44] <phiber-optic> how do I do that
[05:44] <Fujitsu> locate, pvd2006/
[05:44] <phiber-optic> I opened httpd.con and there is nothing
[05:44] <sline_crecature> though that is a common http port as well, so if it's your isp that's the problem, they may block that as well
[05:44] <Auci> Is there a way to reinstall within Ubuntu?
[05:45] <Auci> There should be a way.
[05:45] <dabaR> Auci: "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[05:45] <matthew> irvin: can I downgrade packages through apt? will that cause me problems?
[05:45] <fluxt> pvd2006: or.. find / -name blah
[05:45] <Auci> ill try it
[05:45] <dabaR> phiber-optic: nothing at all?
[05:45] <ACU> hi guys--- it seem so dificult to connect two ubuntu computers in a home net trough a hub - I can ping each other but I cannot see the SHARE
[05:45] <phiber-optic> everything is commented dabaR
[05:46] <TheGuv> does the ubuntu livecd ship with gparted?
[05:46] <william> how do i unmount something
[05:46] <dabaR> phiber-optic: post to paste.ubuntu-nl.org.
[05:46] <dabaR> TheGuv: yes.
[05:46] <ACU> william - right click on mount and choose unmount
[05:46] <dabaR> ACU: what share?
[05:46] <dabaR> william: also umount is the command.
[05:46] <ACU> I create a folder and shared it in one computer
[05:47] <dabaR> both ubuntu computers? what protocol is used for that?:-/
[05:47] <sline_crecature> nfs, no?
[05:47] <phiber-optic> dabaR, i already posted
[05:47] <dabaR> what is the number?
[05:48] <Auci> Dabar, I did the cat  command but still i cant make ubuntu to install the updates ..E: /var/cache/apt/archives/login_1%3a4.0.3-37ubuntu8_i386.deb: files list file for package `dmidecode' is missing final newline
[05:48] <phiber-optic> it has my name dabaR
[05:48] <dabaR> That is an error from what command, auci?
[05:48] <Superslash> theguv: cant find a decent partition manager that supports ext2/3, you know one?
[05:49] <dabaR> phiber-optic: not here.
[05:49] <TheGuv> Superslash, gparted
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> qt_parted :P
[05:49] <Superslash> windows compatible?
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> but if you cant get a live cd to work.. i think ya got some odd issues.
[05:49] <phiber-optic> recent phost phiber_optic
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> thers dozens of linux-live cd;'s that have  g or qtparted on them.
[05:50] <Auci> I can boot ubunto fine and do all thins execpt, installing the updates that I download. when all updates download i got this when I click install.
[05:51] <Superslash> Dr_willis: i do indeed have some odd issues. that forum post mentions my problems trying to run suse
[05:51] <ACU> dabaR - yes both are ubuntu - I gave ip address to one as 195.168.1.1 and the other 1.2  I thought is the TCP/IP is the protocol  - I shared one folder then I went in the other computer ---Places connect to server and chose windows smb entered the IP address of the target computer and soo oon
[05:51] <TheGuv> Superslash, http://www.partition-manager.com/comparison.htm
[05:51] <_jason> dabaR: would it be fine for him to just delete that deb and let apt redownload it?
[05:51] <phiber-optic> dabaR, where u able to find it?
[05:52] <TheGuv> Dr_Willis, gparted's better :p
[05:52] <TheGuv> supports more fs's
[05:52] <Superslash> theguv: that doesnt help me at all, it only works in virtual mode
[05:53] <TheGuv> Superslash ?
[05:53] <TheGuv> argh, demo
[05:53] <TheGuv> curses
[05:53] <TheGuv> and not the cool TUI curses
[05:53] <Superslash> theguv: i need to set up my linux partitions in windows and then reboot with the ubuntu installcd and pray it will recognize them
[05:53] <sline_crecature> does ubuntu have issues with large sata drives? i'm planning a new drive soon
[05:53] <phiber-optic> is anyone good with apache?
[05:54] <sline_crecature> or does it depend on the controller?
[05:54] <Superslash> sline: apparently it does becuase i'm having a hell of a time installing ubuntu
[05:54] <ACU> Superslash - qparted can see and shrink or format windows partitions - and create new partitions in the newly "eliberated" space --- I got it in knopix live cd - but I do not remember having it in the live cd of ubuntu
[05:54] <sline_crecature> what model drive do you have, may i ask?
[05:54] <sline_crecature> and mobo?
[05:54] <Superslash> sline: need a way to find that out...
[05:54] <AshyIsMe> i have enabled the universe multiverse and backports repos' and aptitude still can't find xserver-xgl
[05:54] <ACU> Superslash -- what kind of hell you have -- be specific
[05:54] <AshyIsMe> does anyone have xgl installed?
[05:55] <s|k> what version of gimp comes with dapper?
[05:55] <frank23> Superslash: you can partition your drive in windows if you want with whatever tool you have and then let the ubuntu installer format the linux partitions
[05:55] <Auci> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/login_1%3a4.0.3-37ubuntu8_i386.deb: files list file for package `dmidecode' is missing final newline. anybody seen this?.

[05:55] <Archaios> How do I switch between KDE and gnome desktops?
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> TheGuv,  I was thinking qtparted and gparted were both front ends to 'parted' and thus had identical features. :P
[05:55] <AshyIsMe> which version of ubuntu is 5.10?
[05:55] <frank23> Archaios: do you have both installed?
[05:55] <sline_crecature> Superslash, is the win partition a fresh install or do you have data you need to save?
[05:55] <Archaios> Yes
[05:55] <Superslash> sline: data unfortunately
[05:55] <TheGuv> Dr_Willis, they have different tables on their respective web sites :p
[05:56] <frank23> Archaios: the option is in the login screen. session type or something
[05:56] <TheGuv> Dr_Willis, gparted's table is more attractive, not to mention the screenchots :D
[05:56] <_jason> Auci: apt-get clean did not help?
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> TheGuv,  its prettier so its better!
[05:56] <TheGuv> LOL
[05:56] <TheGuv> :P
[05:56] <Superslash> skube: this shouldnt be a problem anyway. it should see that i have 130gigs of NTFS and 50gigs untouched space
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> TheGoD,  qt_parted worked in the framebuffer under SystemRescue live cd. :p
[05:56] <dabaR> phiber-optic: those are too short for real configs. I am not sure about apache2. Try apache, and change the port number in its httpd.conf file. Also join #apache for apache2 config help
[05:57] <Superslash> sline* damnit, too many keyboards
[05:57] <TheGuv> Dr_Willis, I haven't used either, so i can't say, but it looks from the sites like gparted supports more fs's
[05:57] <dabaR> _jason: that is defuinitely what he can try. but fix the sources.list too.
[05:57] <sline_crecature> lol
[05:57] <dabaR> he says there is no sources.list file:-/
[05:57] <Auci> no, im looking at the terminal and i see this memtest +86 missing,lidusb and so forth.
[05:57] <Superslash> theguv: that one doesnt function either
[05:58] <Dr_Willis> TheGuv,  id be suspucious of that site :p
[05:58] <sline_crecature> Superslash, i have an idea, but it's a long, convoluted solution
[05:58] <Superslash> i've got time
[05:58] <Superslash> stupid amounts of it really
[05:58] <servers> how can I copy and paste in linux?
[05:58] <TheGuv> Superslash, it looks like it can only create
[05:58] <Auci> Is there a way Ubuntu let me reinstall from the system?
[05:58] <_jason> servers: test or files?
[05:58] <Superslash> and it cant take longer than the 3 hours i wasted loading a livecd
[05:58] <_jason> text*
[05:58] <TheGuv> Superslash http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[05:58] <servers> _jason files
[05:58] <sline_crecature> you can try one of the ext2 drivers for winXP, create a partition in the 50 gigs, and copy your data there
[05:59] <ACU> OK - superslash - take it easy --- when you start qparted - specialy when you shrink existing windows partitions it may take 2 hours --- so just do something else while the computer is doing its thing ---- then you will see it works --- the best is to create the new partitions with qparted then format them and install ubuntu --- the windows partition will not be seen by ubuntu but can be seen by qparted
[05:59] <_jason> servers: cp file location
[05:59] <sline_crecature> then shrink your xp partitino or create a new small one
[05:59] <servers> _jason and paste?
[05:59] <_jason> servers: copy and paste is just cp
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> sline_crecature,  im not sure the ext2 things under xp can make new parttions that way
[05:59] <sline_crecature> oh? hmm...scratch that then
[05:59] <Superslash> ACU: i've got 50gigs set aside from linux, think i can skip shrinking windows partitions
[06:00] <dabaR> _jason: copy and paste is text, cp is files...
[06:00] <techrush> how can i disable APIC ?
[06:00] <techrush> i think it might be causing some issues with my machine
[06:00] <sline_crecature> what i meant was then you can still have your xp partition but have your ubuntu boot partition closer to the beginning of the drive
[06:00] <ACU> OK - anyone helping me now  - I want to conect two ubuntus at home- yes both are ubuntu - I gave ip address to one as 195.168.1.1 and the other 1.2  I thought is the TCP/IP is the protocol  - I shared one folder then I went in the other computer ---Places connect to server and chose windows smb entered the IP address of the target computer and soo oon
[06:00] <Dr_Willis> techrush,  "NOAPIC" as a kernel boot option
[06:00] <_jason> dabaR: windows mentality still in me I guess
[06:00] <sline_crecature> and your data reside in an ext2 partition readable in both os'es
[06:01] <intelikey> Superslash linux requires about 2G
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> ACU,  if shareing stuff between 2 linxu machiens - you may want to learn about NFS
[06:01] <techrush> where do i enter kernel boot options ?
[06:01] <Superslash> i have 50
[06:01] <dabaR> ACU: stop using smb:) use ssh, and install a ssh server on the computer you want to share from.
[06:01] <_jason> dabaR: although in nautilus you copy and paste files as well
[06:01] <wastrel> <3 ubuntu
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> ACU,  for samba - you need to make  samba passwords for the linux users. 'sudo smbpasswd -a Username' i belive
[06:01] <dabaR> _jason: I think he was asking about text.
[06:02] <_jason> dabaR: ``servers > _jason files'' :)
[06:02] <ACU> Superslash- then format the partition with qparted - (remember what is the name lvm whatever --- then reboot with your CD of ubuntu in and start the installation and choose that new lvm whatever  the windows will be untouched
[06:02] <dabaR> 13 < techrush> where do i enter kernel boot options ?
[06:02] <dabaR> 23:13 < Superslash> i have 50
[06:02] <dabaR> 23:13 < dabaR> ACU: stop using smb:) use ssh, and install a ssh server on the
[06:02] <dabaR>                computer you want to share from.
[06:02] <dabaR> 23:14 < _jason> dabaR: although in nautilus you copy and paste files as well
[06:02] <Superslash> ACU: pm me on this, becuase i just got confused
[06:02] <dabaR> Was that pasted?
[06:03] <_jason> dabaR: nod
[06:03] <dabaR> K, I gotta go, I am at work, this is not a good setup for me. Sorry about the paste. ttyl.
[06:03] <intelikey> ACU Superslash the ubuntu installer is going to want to format / anyway.  why not just let it ?
[06:03] <sline_crecature> because the installer doesn't see his ntfs partition
[06:03] <Superslash> because theres absolutely no reason why it should not work exactly like it did for http://www.hezardastan.org/breezy_xp_dualboot/en/breezyinstall.html#installbreezy
[06:04] <ACU> OK - thanks Dr Willis --- samba  - samba password --dabaR ssh --- is new for me ---- thanks dabaR  ---bye
[06:04] <Superslash> it just doesnt see my NTFS partition, meaning i'll kill windows
[06:04] <Superslash> and i dont want to do that or reformat
[06:05] <Dr_Willis> ACU,  samba  is a big topic :P  the 'using samba' book is avilable online.
[06:05] <intelikey> Superslash installer doesn't recognize the hda1 ?
[06:05] <sline_crecature> it only sees unformatted 200gig drive
[06:05] <pab1> how can I detect which device is my soundcard in /dev ?
[06:05] <Superslash> intelikey: if hda1 is my windows NTFS partition then thats exactly it
[06:05] <intelikey> pab1  dsp
[06:05] <pab1> just run that cmd?
[06:06] <Superslash> heres the complete situation: I have 130gigs formatted as NTFS with windows XP pro on it
[06:06] <phiber_optic> anyone good in apache?
[06:06] <ACU> Supeslash -- what is pm you ? ---- when you create the new partition with QParted you should know what is the name of it --- so when you install ubuntu you can tell to install in that new partition --- even it is formating it -- NTFS remains intact
[06:06] <Superslash> there is 50gigs which i didnt do anything to since the last reformat
[06:06] <Zenethian> Has anyone here had any problems using an NVidia 7600GT with amd64
[06:06] <Zenethian> ?
[06:06] <Superslash> ACU: doubleclick my name to the right
[06:06] <Zenethian> noapic and nolapic didn't help unfortunately
[06:06] <Superslash> should be a window with my name open in mirc
[06:06] <pab1> intelikey:  what is dsp?
[06:07] <revolutionary> digi sig processor
[06:07] <TheOneWolf> \
[06:07] <Superslash> intelikey: thing is, ubuntu doesnt see the 130gigs of NTFS or 50gigs untouched, it just sees one giant 200gig unformated drive.
[06:07] <pab1> how do i user dsp?  :/
[06:07] <pab1> use*
[06:07] <intelikey> Superslash k   well the partitioner will have to detect the blank space  or pre made partition   or it will fail the install anyway.
[06:07] <lukey-> what do i install to enable support for writing to ntfs partitions?
[06:07] <revolutionary> a dsp is another name for a sound card
[06:07] <revolutionary> i thing
[06:07] <pab1> o
[06:07] <revolutionary> *think
[06:07] <pab1> dur
[06:08] <Superslash> intelikey: so i'm screwed
[06:08] <revolutionary> sort of
[06:08] <jetscreamer> /dev/dsp
[06:08] <phiber_optic> how can I check if my computer allows port 80?
[06:08] <wastrel> linux only has experimental ntfs writing support - not stable
[06:08] <phiber_optic> or if port 80 is open
[06:08] <revolutionary> for your server?
[06:08] <jetscreamer> you could go to grc.com
[06:08] <wastrel> telnet localhost 80
[06:08] <revolutionary> or r u on a desktop
[06:09] <phiber_optic> revolutionary, im on my desktop... but for some reason no one can see my web page :(
[06:09] <pab1> ARGH... does anyone have experience with TVTime?
[06:09] <revolutionary> so your running apache on you deskt?
[06:09] <intelikey> Superslash if you are a pretty good hand with linux, no.  if not, yes.   just because the installer fails doesn't mean that you can't install anyway.  but you will have to know how to move around in a console
[06:09] <phiber_optic> revolutionary,  yes
[06:09] <revolutionary> your crazy!
[06:09] <phiber_optic> why?
[06:09] <Superslash> intelikey: i'm screwed
[06:10] <revolutionary> phiber-optic, local net users or is this available to the net?
[06:10] <esac> i have 2 soundcards in my system, and the 2nd one is set to digital out, how can i change to the second soundcard/digital output (pcm) ?
[06:10] <intelikey> Superslash /;   so solly chally
[06:10] <sline_crecature> phiber-optic, have you checked the port forwarding as dabar suggested?
[06:10] <Superslash> intelikey: i don't know anything about linux really. thts why i picked ubuntu. its supposed to be simple and user friendly, and i've installed it before without issue. why it refuses to work now i've no idea. i guess it hates SATA
[06:10] <musicmkr> anybody feel like helping a relative newb to get this to install on a stubborn old laptop?
[06:10] <TheOneWolf> what's the problem musicmkr?
[06:10] <revolutionary> Superslash, SATA works great for me
[06:11] <TheOneWolf> Same here
[06:11] <phiber_optic> revolutionary,  how do i know if it is available to the net?
[06:11] <revolutionary> musicmkr, sure
[06:11] <intelikey> Superslash yes it's pretty auto-everything.  but that is not always a plus when you have something that is not "expected"
[06:11] <Madpilot> Superslash, my only HD is SATA, I've never had a problem...
[06:11] <Superslash> so then why cant it see that i've got an NTFS partition...
[06:11] <Zenethian> my only complaint is that my SATA-II card runs at ATA/133 speeds.
[06:11] <s|k> why do people make free software?
[06:11] <Auci> so, ubuntu has no way of repairing itself .
[06:11] <musicmkr> i get to the "loading additional components" screen and at 33% the screen flashes to black, there is a line that says "killed" and that portion starts over
[06:11] <Superslash> everyone i talk to says the same thing, they have no clue why this thing wont work
[06:11] <musicmkr> it's an infinite loop
[06:12] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr is this the latest version?
[06:12] <musicmkr> it's close
[06:12] <musicmkr> not quite the latest i don't think
[06:12] <revolutionary> phiber-optic, man use google, use the ubuntu documentation wiki, and RTFM
[06:12] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr I know the installer/livecd failed on certain laptops I tried it on
[06:12] <musicmkr> any workarounds?
[06:12] <intelikey> Superslash and you expect me to know than all the others you have talked too ?     thanks i guess.  but i don't know either.
[06:12] <sline_crecature> Zenethian, there aren't any hd's i know of that will saturate an ATA-133 controller anyway, it's not something to be concerned about
[06:12] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr so my first reaction would be to try the latest
[06:12] <esac> anybody know how to select a second sound card in linux ?
[06:12] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr might be, depends on what causes it
[06:13] <intelikey> know more than
[06:13] <phiber_optic> thats funny revolutionary i did.. there is something funny... when I type my own ip addrees I get to see it..
[06:13] <Shoo-Shu> hey, i am interested in learning how to connect to someones firewall via ssh, then connect to a computer via ssh, then setup a ssh tunnel and vnc can anybody help me please :(
[06:13] <Superslash> intelikey: no. i just want to know if there is a way to get this thing to see my NTFS partition so i can install ubuntu
[06:13] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr it just goes black?
[06:13] <phiber_optic> but when somebody types it it doesnt work
[06:13] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr same percent each time?
[06:13] <rnd_null> i jsut downloaded firefox 1.5...and dont know how to install it, could someone help me? (i'm new to linux)
[06:13] <musicmkr> ok, any tags you think might help at the install prompt?
[06:13] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr you burn the cd yourself?
[06:13] <musicmkr> yep, black
[06:13] <intelikey> Superslash it detects the disk on ?
[06:13] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr lets see
[06:13] <musicmkr> yes, but installed it on my other laptop fine
[06:13] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr ok i see, good cd then
[06:14] <musicmkr> yeah, actually, 33% the first time, then 1 or 2% each time after that... just loops
[06:14] <intelikey> Superslash the installer, i mean.   what does it call your hard drive ?
[06:14] <coz> hello all
[06:14] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr u mean it just sits there?
[06:14] <sline_crecature> rnd_null, have you tried the directions here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompileFirefoxNewVersion?highlight=%28firefox%29
[06:14] <revolutionary> phiber-optic, do you have another computer nearby, and if so have you tried accessing your web page from a machine on your LAN?
[06:15] <intelikey> Superslash  like  hda   sda   ?
[06:15] <Ironman> what's the command to use when you get Permission Denied?
[06:15] <coz>  I noticed on dapper, when using evolution mail, that if I try to close it I get an error saying that eveolution has quit unexpectadly,
[06:15] <renji> i would like to where i can get a software to play videos on ubuntu
[06:15] <coz>  if i try again it does not give that error
[06:15] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr what laptop? make and model?
[06:15] <coz> any clues?
[06:15] <phiber_optic> revolutionary
[06:15] <revolutionary> Ironman, depends what your trying to do, but usually sudo
[06:15] <musicmkr> no, get to 33%, flashes to black screen with one line at the bottom that says "killed", then starts that piece of the install again, but only makes it to 1 or 2% each time after the first before it crashes again
[06:15] <Ironman> that's the one
[06:15] <rnd_null> fluxt, you there?
[06:15] <phiber_optic> it works from a computer nearby
[06:15] <musicmkr> sorry if i'm not being clear
[06:15] <Ironman> Thanks revolutionary
[06:15] <Superslash> intelikey: i'll need to get back to that spot to check

[06:17] <Superslash> intelikey: two boxes, 2 keyboards, 1 mouse, 1 monitor
[06:17] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr hmm....no reports on it
[06:17] <revolutionary> phiber_optic, if so make sure your router is configured to allow requests to port 80 on your machine
[06:17] <Superslash> takes me about 5 seconds to switch from one to the othert
[06:17] <musicmkr> it's quite old
[06:17] <musicmkr> maybe it's a hardware issue
[06:17] <phiber_optic> revolutionary I did that
[06:17] <intelikey> hmmmm one monitor will be a problem there wont it.
[06:18] <Superslash> not really
[06:18] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr could be, ,looking up boot options
[06:18] <Superslash> 's called a pen m8
[06:18] <shukhrat> how install codec for mp3 or mpeg ?
[06:18] <revolutionary> phiber_optic, k so when say a friend trys to access your web page does he just type in the ip address or does he do somthing like this 222.222.222:80   ?
[06:18] <Superslash> shukhrat: try automatix or easyubuntu?
[06:18] <Ironman> If a software (aMSN) tells me theres a new version and I downloaded a *.deb file to my dekstop, how do I install it?
[06:18] <intelikey> Superslash you did chose 'use custom partitioning'  in the ubuntu installer didn't you ?
[06:19] <phiber_optic> just the ip
[06:19] <shukhrat> Superslash: sorry
[06:19] <frank23> !automatix
[06:19] <ubotu> rumour has it, automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[06:19] <revolutionary> phiber_optic, the port number must be specified, the port number must be appended to the ip so that your friends browser knows which port to access.
[06:19] <revolutionary> i think
[06:19] <phiber_optic> ok Im telling him
[06:20] <Superslash> intelikey: at what point and how?
[06:20] <revolutionary> so like  ip:80
[06:20] <dave3k> is 80 the default port?
[06:20] <sline_crecature> yes it is
[06:20] <Superslash> intelikey: the only partitioning question i ever notice comes up when you can choose to reformat or edit the table manually
[06:20] <jjs0ah> dave3k: it is. he shouldn't have to append the port
[06:21] <shukhrat> totem movie player cound not play mpg format why ?
[06:21] <phiber_optic> revolutionary,  it didnt work
[06:21] <dave3k> no go
[06:21] <aszurom> _jason, you there?
[06:21] <shukhrat> how install codec for mp3 or mpeg ?
[06:22] <sline_crecature> phiber_optic, have you tried configuring it to use a different port? 80 may be blocked, if your isp doesn't like you hosting
[06:22] <crimsun> shukhrat: in breezy or dapper?
[06:22] <musicmkr> any luck wolf?
[06:22] <phiber_optic> ok ill try modifying the configuration file of apache and changing to a different port
[06:22] <intelikey> Superslash you said that the installer doesn't see the ntfs partition ?     at what point do you determine that ?     if you don't get to the question  'erase entire disk?   use guided partitioning?   use custom partitioning ?"     then how do you know if it sees the ntfs part or not ?
[06:22] <phiber_optic> can I use any port?
[06:22] <shukhrat> crimsun: breezy
[06:22] <revolutionary> phiber_optic, yeah change the default port to somthing higher than 1024.
[06:22] <phiber_optic> ok
[06:23] <sline_crecature> shukhrat, have you installed w32codecs?
[06:23] <crimsun> shukhrat: you need gstreamer0.8-mad and gstreamer0.8-mpeg2dec
[06:23] <Superslash> intelikey: the point where the partitions come into play is exactly this point in the install (first image in the link): http://www.hezardastan.org/breezy_xp_dualboot/en/breezyinstall.html#installbreezy
[06:23] <shukhrat> sline_crecature: no
[06:23] <aszurom> if I've set up udev/rules.d/10-local.rule to contain an event rule that sets up /dev/input/mx1000 shouldn't I see that in the /dev/input folder?
[06:23] <revolutionary> got to go ....
[06:23] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr lol trying to find
[06:23] <renji> natas, could u please tell me is there any video player for ubantu
[06:24] <musicmkr> heh, cool, take your time, thanks alot
[06:24] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr do u have another cd reader you could try with the laptop?
[06:24] <aszurom> renji, totem?
[06:24] <shukhrat> crimsun: how to install gstreamer0.8-mad?
[06:24] <dli__> renji, mplayer, totem, xine-ui, vlc
[06:24] <intelikey> Superslash i'd have to start a gui to view images.
[06:24] <musicmkr> no
[06:24] <crimsun> shukhrat: install it from universe
[06:24] <crimsun> !tell shukhrat about repos
[06:24] <Superslash> ah okay
[06:24] <musicmkr> i can try to get one though
[06:24] <musicmkr> not tonight, lol
[06:24] <aszurom> anybody got a mouse using edev that works?
[06:24] <renji> dli_ from wher iget mplayer for ubantu
[06:25] <aszurom> er... evdev
[06:25] <Superslash> intelikey: the point in installing where it asks you if youd like to manually edit your partition table
[06:25] <dli__> renji, mplayer is in breezy, http://packages.ubuntu.com
[06:26] <Superslash> intelikey: when i select that (as opposed to several "erase disk and do X" options) it should show me the partition table
[06:26] <aszurom> is there a channel specific to hardware support?
[06:27] <dli__> aszurom, /join #hardware
[06:27] <esac> has anybody used mythtv w/ a usb ir blaster ?
[06:27] <CuriousCat> Hello! Have a problem here. My laptop's on dual boot (XP + ubuntu dapper [xfce] ). I mounted a windows drive on ubuntu. Weird thing is when i move files to that and boot into XP, it can't see those files. But I go back to Ubuntu and it's there. Any thoughts on how I can solve this?
[06:27] <sline_crecature> Superslash, so you're saying that after you select that, it shows no partitions?
[06:27] <intelikey> Superslash now give me that link.
[06:27] <Superslash> intelikey: http://www.hezardastan.org/breezy_xp_dualboot/en/breezyinstall.html#installbreezy
[06:27] <musicmkr> curious - i believe the files are stored in a different format in linux... i had the same problem
[06:28] <Superslash> intelikey: i just see the unformatted hd, only in reality its not formatted
[06:28] <phiber_optic> revolutionary it worked
[06:28] <phiber_optic> thank you very much
[06:28] <sline_crecature> heh, i figured that would work
[06:28] <CuriousCat> musicmkr, gah... how did you solve this?
[06:28] <sline_crecature> dabar said that half an hour ago though ;)
[06:29] <aszurom> can someone help me with evdev mouse setup in xorg.conf?
[06:29] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, what format is your XP partition?
[06:30] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, vfat32
[06:30] <Ironman> will apt-get only install stuff from the internet?  Can I install something i downloaded locally?
[06:30] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, i mean fat32. mounted as vfat
[06:30] <gopi> configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[06:30] <aszurom> ironman, dpkg
[06:30] <intelikey> Superslash hmmmm
[06:30] <gopi> How to install C compiler plz ???
[06:30] <aszurom> if it's a .deb file
[06:30] <frank23> Ironman: you can install a .deb with sudo dpkg -i name.deb
[06:30] <musicmkr> hey wolf, you know if there's a way to tell what HD i have inside this thing, cause there are several parameters you can specify for different ones
[06:31] <jjs0ah> Ironman: apt-get will install stuff from the repositories it finds listed in /etc/apt/sources.list .... add local sources there. comment out the ones pertaining to the internet
[06:31] <gopi> How to install C compiler plz ???  configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[06:31] <Ironman> thanks for the answers
[06:31] <shukhrat> crimsun: it's work thanks
[06:31] <intelikey> Superslash and you click the manuelly edit...  then click the  disk drive and  ?
[06:32] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, where do you have that mounted?
[06:32] <intelikey> click  hehhe  i mean highlight and enter.
[06:32] <Superslash> intelikey: i tried that, all it does is start partitioning and formatting the drive as though it were empty
[06:32] <Ironman> Can I install something from a *.bin file?
[06:32] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, /dev/hda5 mounted on /windows
[06:32] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr u want to know hard drive?
[06:32] <cerberus_> gopi, run synaptic package manager and in development select the g++ and g++ 3.3 options
[06:33] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr what OS is on it now?
[06:33] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, mounted with rw access btw
[06:33] <musicmkr> none, no OS is on it
[06:33] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr does the livecd work?
[06:33] <zuokanyunqi> how can i change char's color under console
[06:33] <musicmkr> haven't tried it
[06:33] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr now worry, can look up onlint specs ne ways
[06:33] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, hmm...that's strange, i'm not sure what would cause that behavior then
[06:34] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr yeah having trouble locating docs on boot options
[06:34] <Ironman> So can I install something from a *.bin file?
[06:34] <musicmkr> hmmm
[06:34] <Ironman> or does it have to be *.deb?
[06:34] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr looking up hd now
[06:34] <Xnos> hi... why when  i browse a folder to play music,xmms cant view folders that start with a dot
[06:34] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, Windows recognizes that the used up space is larger than previous, but i can't see the file. Even tried to show all the hidden files. Nada
[06:34] <sean> I need help getting my DVD-ROM to work with acid rip
[06:35] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr did u ever upgrade the memory?
[06:35] <Xenguy> Xnos: yeah, me too -- I just created a symlink
[06:35] <sean> i already installed libdvdcss2
[06:35] <cerberus_> does anyone know of a working packport for hoary hedghog? mirrormax doesn't seem to be working
[06:35] <musicmkr> no :-p
[06:35] <zuokanyunqi> i want to set char's color to green like "matrix" what shall i do
[06:35] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr so it probably still has just 32 mb ram
[06:35] <ig-shoot-me> repos
[06:36] <Madpilot> cerberus_, mirrormax hasn't worked for months
[06:36] <Xenguy> Xnos: like, ln -s .aMule aMule
[06:36] <Madpilot> !tell cerberus_ about repos
[06:36] <musicmkr> maybe -- can't i still get the server install to work?
[06:36] <zuokanyunqi> _jason, can you help me
[06:36] <cerberus_> cheers Madpilot
[06:36] <Xnos> Xenguy, ok thank you man
[06:36] <Madpilot> cerberus_, why are you still running Hoary? Upgrading to Breezy is fairly easy, assuming you've got broadband
[06:36] <Xenguy> Xnos: yw
[06:36] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr yeah should work ok
[06:37] <cerberus_> I have dial up, I've ordered the cds, just waiting on their arrival
[06:37] <sean> can anyone help me to use my dvdrom for ripping dvds
[06:37] <musicmkr> same error though
[06:37] <zuokanyunqi> Madpilot, can you help me
[06:37] <musicmkr> hence my confusion
[06:37] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, perhaps it's a problem with the file names?
[06:37] <Madpilot> zuokanyunqi, possibly. With what?
[06:37] <zuokanyunqi> i want to set char's color to green like "matrix" what shall i do
[06:37] <intelikey> ok get a pincle Superslash.    at that point. where it says manually edit the partition table.     hit [alt] +[f2]   [enter]      then type  mount /dev/hda1 /target   and see what it says.  (that assumes ide hdd,   use sda1 if non-ide)    if it says anything about ntfs  you can manually mount the ext#fs partition on /target  and proceed with the install  by stepping past the partitioner.  it will be buggy but can be done.   i
[06:37] <frank23> cerberus_: you need a friend with broadband ;)
[06:37] <intelikey> youre screwed.
[06:37] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, will check out that possibility in a bit
[06:37] <cerberus_> It would definately help
[06:38] <Madpilot> zuokanyunqi, which characters?
[06:38] <cerberus_> But I'm a uni student, not many of my friends can afford broadband
[06:38] <ig-shoot-me> sudo apt-get install flashplayer-mozilla (when i type that in, i get E: Couldnt find package flashplayer-mozilla
[06:38] <zuokanyunqi> every character under console
[06:38] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr yeah server install is minimal
[06:39] <Xenguy> zuokanyunqi: get a terminal that allows you to configure colours
[06:39] <Superslash> intelikey: just confused the hell out of me. it'llt ell me if the hard drive is IDE right? and if it recognizes my NTFS partition then i'll be able to go on normally right?
[06:39] <musicmkr> maybe it's the cd drive then, though it checks the cd ok
[06:39] <Madpilot> zuokanyunqi, you can change the text colours in gnome-terminal; you can probably do it in console too if you edit .bashrc
[06:39] <zuokanyunqi> Xenguy, not terminal
[06:39] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, logging off first to check out your suggestions. Will come back to report what happened
[06:39] <CuriousCat> :)
[06:39] <zuokanyunqi> not under X-window
[06:39] <sline_crecature> ok, good luck
[06:39] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, thanks!
[06:40] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr yeah, i wish i had some boot options in front of me
[06:40] <pab1> looking for help with tvtime
[06:40] <pab1> any1 familiar with it?
[06:40] <TheOneWolf> musicmkr sorry but i got to go for now :(
[06:40] <zuokanyunqi> i want to chage foreground of console
[06:40] <Xenguy> zuokanyunqi: OK now I get it; that is a tall order you have :-)
[06:40] <Madpilot> zuokanyunqi, you'll want to look into .bashrc, I guess. Ask google for some bash tutorials, or about bash prompt editing
[06:40] <musicmkr> no prob, i'll try working on it
[06:40] <Pretto> hey... anybode could say what command removes a folder?
[06:41] <jjs0ah> Prettyo: rm -r <dir>  ... man rm
[06:41] <intelikey> Superslash also a test of less /dev/hda1 (if less is in the install system) will tell you if there is a partition there that can be detected.       fdisk -l /dev/hda  should show partitions  but all these apps that we normally use will be a busybox process call and wont work like normal so ......
[06:41] <Xenguy> Pretto: rm
[06:41] <Pretto> with subfolders?
[06:41] <Xenguy> Pretto: rm -rf
[06:41] <Xenguy> careful
[06:41] <intelikey> able to go on normally right? <--- no
[06:41] <Superslash> intelikey: were going far further than my knowledge of linux. i don't know anything about this stuff
[06:42] <dli__> predius_, better to use a GUI filemanager
[06:42] <zuokanyunqi> is there a command "vidcontrol"
[06:42] <btdown> Hrm..I'm trying to vnc into a machine from the CLI but I need to specify port 80, it doesnt seem to be work with ::80 ....Is there a trick to specify the port # instead of display #?
[06:43] <Xenguy> btdown: some kind of ssh tunnelling might be an option for you too (general idea only :-)
[06:43] <intelikey> Superslash ok.  sorry.   ah if you don't want to loose the windows install.   better wait for better support for your hardware.     sorry i dove in too deep on that.
[06:43] <Superslash> *headdesk!
[06:43] <Superslash> time to try a different distro
[06:43] <sean> is there a website where i can learn to rip cds, acid rip isn't working for some reason?
[06:44] <btdown> xenguy yeah I have use freenx on port 22, but it doesnt work will with persistent sessions... so sometime I like to us vnc when I need to let stuff run...
[06:44] <Xenguy> Superslash: are you coming or going :p
[06:44] <birdfish> Hi guys, I have a question regarding ip_forwarding
[06:44] <Xenguy> btdown: check out x11vnc...
[06:44] <Superslash> xenguy: i dont know, i honestly dont
[06:45] <intelikey> Superslash i like mandrake/mandriva  some don't.  it's got a pretty good installer package and is newb friendly
[06:45] <aszurom> anybody messed with udev rules?
[06:45] <birdfish> when I execute the command "sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward", I get a "permission denied error" :/
[06:45] <birdfish> What is wrong?
[06:45] <Madpilot> sean, ripping in Ubuntu? Audio CD?
[06:45] <Superslash> intelikey: i tried that once before, couldnt download it all the way
[06:45] <Xenguy> btdown: it's a bit much to configure initially, but work well as X tunnelled over ssh
[06:45] <ig-shoot-me> Ok, I put the thing in terminal to get flash plugin for Firefox, and it displayed a lot of text, then it finished and i closed terminal, and lcosed firefox.  I reopened firefox and i still dont have the flash thing
[06:45] <intelikey> Superslash lots of mirrors.
[06:45] <Xenguy> btdown: er, uses vnc too
[06:45] <btdown> xenguy Thanks. I'll check it out..are the docs/instructions decent or can u recommend a tutorial or howto?
[06:46] <intelikey> google  linus distros
[06:46] <sean> Madpilot, its a DVD, i tried to use Acid Rip but it says DVD not found, but Ubuntu recognizes that there's a DVD disc in there, just not a movie
[06:46] <ig-shoot-me> So what do I do guys?
[06:46] <Xenguy> btdown: I worked off an article I found (linux journal? debian-administration.org?)
[06:46] <Madpilot> sean, ah. Never done anything with ripping DVDs, sorry
[06:47] <btdown> xenguy Cool..That'll give me a place to start. Thanks again!
[06:47] <sean> mmk
[06:47] <Xenguy> btdown: remember you want to tunnel via ssh
[06:47] <HymnToLife> sean > DVD Ripping is a no-go on Linux
[06:47] <HymnToLife> if there's a decent tool to do it I haven't found it yet
[06:47] <Xenguy> btdown: encrypted traffic
[06:47] <HymnToLife> and I've done quite a bit of searching
[06:47] <sean> well how can I at least watch DVDs
[06:47] <btdown> xenguy got it...Wish me luck!
[06:47] <Xenguy> btdown: aye
[06:48] <HymnToLife> sean > I use VLC, works perfectly
[06:48] <ig-shoot-me> Anybody wanna help me?
[06:49] <HymnToLife> !helpme
[06:49] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[06:49] <ig-shoot-me> I asked it a couple times.
[06:49] <sean> HymnToLife, i just tried that and it didn't work, what should I put for device in the MLR
[06:49] <birdfish> when I execute the command "sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward", I get a "permission denied error" :/  What is the problem with this?

[06:50] <HymnToLife> birdfish> if I'm not mistaken you have to be *real* root to mess with things in /proc
[06:50] <Xenguy> btdown: heheh
[06:50] <coz> or go to flash site and download the linux version
[06:50] <birdfish> HymnToLife: How would I become real root?
[06:50] <HymnToLife> sudo su
[06:51] <birdfish> Ah, thanks :)
[06:51] <intelikey> birdfish there is a fake root ?
[06:51] <ig-shoot-me> I couldnt find that.
[06:51] <aszurom> will the real root please stand up?
[06:51] <ig-shoot-me> The flash linux thing.
[06:52] <jjs0ah> birdfish: sudo su -
[06:52] <intelikey> HymnToLife what's wrong with  sudo -i
[06:52] <ig-shoot-me> Could I get the help now please? :P
[06:52] <HymnToLife> intelikey> that it does exactly the same thing than sudo su does
[06:52] <HymnToLife> what's wrong with sudo su ?
[06:53] <intelikey> nothing if you add a - to the end of it :)

[06:59] <Madpilot> ig-shoot-me, there isn't one. Use sudo
[06:59] <sean> i need help with libdvdcss
[06:59] <intelikey> m5m  no  executable file named configure in the $PWD  ?
[06:59] <revolutionary> ubuntu.com
[06:59] <CuriousCat> hey sline_crecature, didn't work. :(
[06:59] <jdprc06> but it all involves booting into windows, which i can't do. it freezes
[06:59] <revolutionary> Sean
[06:59] <paradizelost> hey all
[07:00] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, sorry to hear that, i'm not sure what else to suggest to you
[07:00] <Madpilot> !tell sean about dvd
[07:00] <paradizelost> i'm trying to get Xgl working on a Radeon AIW 9800 pro, it's on the compatitility list, but when X starts up, it's just the grey screen with the spinning "thinking" cursor
[07:00] <sean> revolutionary, i launched mplayer in a shell for a dvd and it said Could not open /dev/dvd with libdvdcss.
[07:00] <paradizelost> anyone have any ideas?
[07:00] <IdleOne> !tell jjs0ah about dvd
[07:00] <paradizelost> doesn't get to the GDM login screen, but it doesn't crash either
[07:00] <m5m> ahh thanks intelikey; that did it... i thought ./configure --help was a systemwide, kind of liek a man page... it didnt't occur to me that it was path-dependent and source specific!
[07:01] <jjs0ah> IdleOne: thanks
[07:01] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, question. what's the iocharset on fstab for?
[07:01] <revolutionary> sean, goto ubuntu.com
[07:01] <IdleOne> jjs0ah>  no problem
[07:01] <revolutionary> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[07:01] <intelikey> jdprc06 used to use the  f8 key  when win first kicked off to get a safemode boot option    have you tried hitting  f8 as soon as you slect the windows option in grub ?
[07:01] <revolutionary> sean
[07:02] <sean> hmm
[07:02] <jdprc06> no
[07:02] <jdprc06> i'll try that
[07:02] <revolutionary> im having problems with my external usb dvd drive.
[07:02] <paradizelost> anyone who can help me w/ my Xgl problem?
[07:02] <IdleOne> paradizelost> #ubuntu-xgl
[07:02] <revolutionary> it won't mount automatically,
[07:03] <paradizelost> IdleOne: danke
[07:03] <sean> revolutionary, what the wiki or the forums?
[07:03] <revolutionary> i have to goto the shell and pmount /dev/sro
[07:03] <revolutionary> i have to goto the shell and pmount /dev/sr0
[07:03] <revolutionary> sean, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[07:03] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, sorry, i'm not sure i could explain the function but you do need to have that specified correctly
[07:04] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, what is the line in your fstab?
[07:04] <sean> revolutionary, thanks
[07:04] <ig-shoot-me> Someone help me with http://pastebin.com/608656
[07:04] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, ok. let me check this out again. Because i didn't specify that in my fstab
[07:04] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, er... the exact line escapes me at the moment. :D
[07:04] <intelikey> sline_crecature CuriousCat tells linux what language encoding the filesystem is writen in.
[07:04] <revolutionary> i have gnome-volume-manager, hal, dbus, usbview, usbmount installed by no luck getting it to auto mount when i insert a dvd.
[07:05] <IdleOne> ig-shoot-me> edot /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the us. part from your repos
[07:05] <IdleOne> edit*
[07:05] <CuriousCat> thanks intelikey. Maybe that *is* my problem then. :)
[07:05] <CuriousCat> Will check it out right now
[07:05] <IdleOne> !tell ig-shoot-me about easysource
[07:06] <revolutionary> help
[07:06] <IdleOne> ig-shoot-me>  those mirromax repos arent official ubuntu repos are they?
[07:06] <sean> do you need to have w32codecs in order to watch DVDs
[07:07] <intelikey> put the exclamation point in front of that revolutionary
[07:07] <intelikey> !help
[07:07] <frank23> sean: no
[07:07] <nathaniel> hey, I installed WinXP on another computer after I had installed Ubuntu, is there an easy way to reinstall the bootloader without reinstalling Ubuntu?
[07:07] <frank23> !dvd
[07:07] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[07:08] <intelikey> nathaniel sure.   man grub-install
[07:08] <Madpilot> nathaniel, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[07:08] <Terminus> nathaniel: boot from a livecd, mount and chroot to the ubuntu partitions, and then run grub-install.
[07:08] <IdleOne> sean  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[07:08] <pedrolito> Is it possible to install ubuntu without a cd, i.e. with all the files on a partition?
[07:09] <C-O-L-T> Seveas:?
[07:09] <nathaniel> thanks
[07:09] <ig-shoot-me> I still cant use flash
[07:09] <intelikey> the man pages are on the live aren't they ?
[07:09] <IdleOne> errr
[07:09] <IdleOne> nathaniel>  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[07:09] <ig-shoot-me> Wait, yes I can
[07:09] <ig-shoot-me> Hm
[07:09] <IdleOne> sean>  sorry wrong person :)
[07:09] <revolutionary> no i need help figuring out why my usb dvd drive wont auto mount.
[07:10] <sean> yeah
[07:10] <revolutionary> neverming
[07:10] <revolutionary> nevermind
[07:10] <intelikey> unplug and replug it
[07:10] <intelikey> ok
[07:12] <frank23> is it possible to deny network access to a specific program? for example deny to one browser and allow another
[07:13] <tarheel> whats a good media player for linux
[07:13] <pedrolito> tarheel, mplayer
[07:13] <tarheel> that will play avi and mpg
[07:13] <intelikey> !vlc
[07:13] <ubotu> it has been said that vlc is a video/audio player that supports almost everything - See http://www.videolan.org/ for more information (VLC is in the repos)
[07:14] <pedrolito> intelikey, does vlc support wmv3 now?
[07:14] <intelikey> pedrolito how would i know that on a p1 system ?
[07:15] <pedrolito> yikes a p1?
[07:15] <karron> #ubnutu-zh
[07:15] <intelikey> and dialup   hehhe
[07:15] <IdleOne> wow
[07:15] <IdleOne> thought I had it bad with my P2
[07:15] <pedrolito> you're a masochistic
[07:15] <tarheel> lol i still got and old windows 3.1 machine
[07:15] <IdleOne> at least I have dsl hehe
[07:15] <paradizelost> dangit, there's no one in the Xgl channels....
[07:16] <intelikey> Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-5-386 | Distro: unknown | CPU: Pentium MMX @ 262 Mhz | Mem usage: 49.0/92.4 MB (53%) | Swap usage: unavailable | Disk usage(ST3630A): 0.5/0.6 GB (83%) | Uptime: 4 hrs 44 mins 42 secs
[07:16] <pedrolito> a 600 mb hd, that's not much
[07:17] <intelikey> kinda hard to do much dual booting on a .6g hdd  :)
[07:17] <Healot> ???
[07:18] <chasmarang> When I use insmod I get: Error dscudkp.o; Invalid module format - I'm using breezy is that why?
[07:18] <intelikey> it was 100 mhz   i kinda over clocked it a bit.
[07:18] <tarheel> lol
[07:18] <BlueEagle> intelikey: cat /proc/cpuinfo|grep bogomips
[07:19] <intelikey> BlueEagle why ?   it reports dubble the real spead
[07:19] <BlueEagle> chasmarang: sounds like you've upgraded or recompiled your kernel but not your kernel modules (or not installed them)
[07:19] <BlueEagle> intelikey: I am just curious. :)
[07:19] <intelikey> 518
[07:20] <Arclite> The gift for the man who has everything: Ubuntu.
[07:20] <chasmarang> oh oh how do I do that?
[07:20] <Arclite> I got 65 Breezy CDs for my birthday.
[07:20] <mike_> is there a wiki for properly installing gnucash?
[07:20] <BlueEagle> chasmarang: Did you compile your own kernel?
[07:20] <Madpilot> mike_, 'sudo apt-get install gnucash' should work
[07:20] <chasmarang> I'm learning to but not yet
[07:21] <BlueEagle> chasmarang: Well after your new kernel is compiled run make modules_install to install the new modules.
[07:21] <mike_> madpilot: is that all? rookie here
[07:21] <Madpilot> !info gnucash
[07:21] <ubotu> gnucash: (A personal finance tracking program), section universe/gnome, is extra. Version: 1.8.10-18 (breezy), Packaged size: 1282 kB, Installed size: 3908 kB
[07:21] <Madpilot> mike_, if you've got Universe repo enabled, that'll work
[07:21] <Arclite> Now I'm not sure what to do with them all. There's not too many computer geeks around Union, MO.
[07:22] <mike_> was able to get it using the synaptic manager, but can only get to it through a terminal
[07:22] <Arclite> Maybe I should go hand them out at McDonald's. :D
[07:22] <chasmarang> I get: make: *** No rule to make target `modules_install'.  Stop.
[07:22] <Madpilot> mike_, you can add a menu entry - right-click on your Applications menu, select Edit Menu, etc
[07:23] <intelikey> not many "computer geeks" around here either....
[07:23] <Madpilot> Arclite, hand them out at your local library - give some to some of the local computer stores - or high school compsci teachers
[07:23] <CuriousCat> gah...
[07:23] <mike_> looking...
[07:23] <CuriousCat> still nada.
[07:23] <Healot> chasmarang, you just typed "make modules_install" right?
[07:23] <chasmarang> yep
[07:24] <Healot> chasmarang, take a look that the makefile, check out for the make target, anyways wth are you trying to compile?
[07:24] <Healot> or better READ the documentation for possible make targets
[07:24] <albacker> !shipit
[07:25] <ubotu> For free ubuntu CDs, visit https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
[07:25] <albacker> ,shipit
[07:25] <albacker> ubotu tell me about shipit
[07:25] <albacker> how does this work ?!
[07:25] <mike_> madpilot: nope, doesn't show up at all
[07:26] <Madpilot> mike_, in the menu editor, select which sub-menu you want gnucash to appear in (Office?) then hit the New Entry button
[07:26] <chasmarang> there is no makefile I just typed at the command line
[07:26] <Healot> albacker, visit ubuntu's website... then select Order.... register your e-mail/related stuff, login and order...
[07:26] <mike_> ok hang on
[07:26] <Arclite> albacker: You create an account, put it your address and what CDs you want, and 4-6 weeks later they're in your mailbox.
[07:26] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, is your linux fs ext3?
[07:26] <Healot> READ the documentation for possible make targets, usually in "README" file or on the website... yeah be a tool :)
[07:27] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature,  uhmmm. i think
[07:27] <Arclite> Or they're in your friend's mailbox, and they wrap them in goofy orange/red/yellow paper and give them to you for your birthday.
[07:27] <albacker> thanks Healot Arclite i got the URL of shipit :)
[07:27] <Madpilot> mike_, in the Command box, just put 'gnucash' w/o quotes
[07:27] <intelikey> hehhe   just a random command chasmarang   'make modules_install '   for the fun of it did ya ?
[07:27] <sline_crecature> you can try installing an ext2 driver for windows and see if you can copy the files over in windows
[07:27] <chasmarang> yes make modules_install
[07:27] <Travis_> how do I search like 50 files for a certain word using grep?
[07:27] <shukhrat> how i can change language to Russian my Ubuntu ?
[07:27] <mike_> madpilot: it's there, but won't let me make it visible
[07:28] <chasmarang> and I got: make: *** No rule to make target `modules_install'.  Stop.
[07:28] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, er... hmm... ok.
[07:28] <Madpilot> mike_, clicking on the checkbox doesn't work?
[07:28] <Healot> Travis_, just do a filename wildcard
[07:28] <mike_> nope
[07:28] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, see if this software helps: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[07:28] <Travis_> Healot I don't know howto use grep what command could I use?
[07:28] <sline_crecature> it will let you read your linux partition in windows
[07:28] <Healot> chasmarang, anyways wth are you trying to compile...
[07:28] <intelikey> shukhrat    sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
[07:28] <mike_> however, it does add it as a sub under office
[07:28] <Madpilot> mike_, strange. I've never actually installed gnucash, so I'm not sure what's up
[07:29] <Healot> Travis_, ask Mr. "man"
[07:29] <chasmarang> a usb driver
[07:29] <Healot> "man grep"
[07:29] <Travis_> I thought it was just a simple command
[07:29] <Healot> chasmarang, READ the documentation FIRST, honestly...
[07:29] <Madpilot> Travis_, grep is actually fairly complex :P
[07:29] <Healot> Travis_, the command is simple... the PATTERN is not
[07:30] <CuriousCat> Travis_, fairly complex yet highly powerful!
[07:30] <chasmarang> it compiles alright it just dosn't insmod - I'm going step by step with the document right now
[07:30] <mike_> madpilot: thanks, i'm farther along than I was before and learned something in the process. :)
[07:30] <Travis_> healot I want to search all files in /var/www/center for the word echo
[07:30] <Madpilot> mike_, np
[07:31] <Healot> Travis_, just do this "grep "echo" /vat/www/center"
[07:31] <Travis_> l
[07:31] <Travis_> k
[07:32] <intelikey> Travis_   you should read the man page on grep    man grep     but the command you are asking about  is    grep -HiRe'echo' /var/www/center
[07:32] <Travis_> Healot is that recursive
[07:32] <Healot> -R is
[07:32] <Travis_> k
[07:32] <Healot> I showed the simplest form
[07:32] <Travis_> k
[07:33] <intelikey> simplest  but not recursive.
[07:33] <Travis_> thanks that worked
[07:33] <Healot> read the manual... for all the switches...
[07:33] <Travis_> k
[07:33] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, you are a *lifesaver*! :D
[07:33] <chasmarang> Healot: it compiles alright it just dosn't insmod - I'm going step by step with the document right now
[07:33] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, works perfectly!
[07:33] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, i'm glad that worked :)
[07:33] <Healot> yeah READ the first step to understand anything :)
[07:34] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, just can't figure out why it can't see the files transferred by linux.
[07:34] <CuriousCat> but it can see the files transferred by windows just fine
[07:34] <sline_crecature> i'm not sure why that is either
[07:34] <intelikey> Healot hmmm  ;/   i learned all i know about computers by the 'trial and reformat' method   .....
[07:35] <sline_crecature> does the line in your fstab look like this: /dev/hda1       /media/windows  vfat    iocharset=utf8,umask=000   0       0
[07:35] <sline_crecature> except with the correct partition name, of course
[07:35] <Healot> intelikey, i don't :)
[07:35] <Healot> VMware+LiveCD
[07:36] <intelikey> yup
[07:36] <Healot> plus previous experience on other UNIXes... GNU/Linux is fairly new, yet very familiar
[07:36] <albacker> is there any tool for linux that converts little avis to small gifs ?
[07:37] <fyrestrtr> guys, is it possible to install a ubuntu system from the LiveCD? Or do I have to download the install CD image.
[07:37] <Healot> a lot... not familiar with each and everyone. but vlc+totem could work...
[07:38] <DUMAiSO> where do i get java jre1.5?
[07:38] <intelikey> fyrestrtr it is possable.  but you don't want too.   dl the install cd.
[07:38] <DUMAiSO> where do i get java jre1.5 for dapper?
[07:38] <Healot> fyrestrtr, yes you can actually, but it is the tedious copy+chmod process
[07:38] <fyrestrtr> ah okay.
[07:38] <fyrestrtr> I'll just download the install CD then.
[07:38] <CuriousCat> sline_crecature, yup.
[07:38] <s|k> is there a way to run mac programs on linux?
[07:38] <fyrestrtr> now officially running *three* different distros. What a headache.
[07:39] <Healot> DUMAiSO, download Sun J2DK/JRE from Sun website, and install "make-jpkg" package from ubuntu's "universe" section
[07:39] <s|k> fyrestrtr: which ones?
[07:39] <Healot> s|k, use Mac emulator
[07:39] <DUMAiSO> Healot, ok
[07:39] <s|k> Healot: can I run safari with mac emulator?
[07:39] <Healot> !javadebs
[07:39] <fyrestrtr> FC4, Gentoo, RHEL, and soon, ubuntu
[07:39] <Healot> s|k, yes... it supposed too, just like that wine thing
[07:40] <s|k> wine is not an emulator ;D
[07:40] <sline_crecature> CuriousCat, well then i'm at a loss.
[07:40] <Healot> s|k, are you talking about the OLD MacOS application or the new MacOS X's?
[07:40] <s|k> X?
[07:40] <Healot> s|k, you got that right
[07:41] <fyrestrtr> and lo and behold, not one simple way to do the same operation in all three of them. Right now scratching my head on spmass-milter on FC4, the other day was wondering why PHP5 on Gentoo couldn't recognize preg_* functions.
[07:41] <sean> I just ran a cat /etc/modules.conf and it said it didn't exist
[07:41] <sean> is that bad
[07:41] <pab1> modprobe.d
[07:41] <s|k> ./etc/modules.conf ?
[07:41] <chasmarang> okay just for grins and giggles write this in hello.c
[07:41] <intelikey> yeah use the windows emulator 'wine = Wine Is Not an Emulator '    :)
[07:41] <Raul654> Quick question - after apt-getting gcc on a recent installation of ubuntu, I noticed that certain programs that worked fine on other systems became broken when I compiled on the ubuntu system. It looks like, on those ohter systems, gcc automatically includes certain header files (such as, among others, stdio.h and unistd.h) and on ubuntu it does not. Is there a setting for this somewhere?
[07:41] <chasmarang> #define MODULE
[07:41] <chasmarang> int init_module(void)      { printk("<1>Hello, world\n"); return 0; }
[07:41] <chasmarang> void cleanup_module(void)  { printk("<1>Goodbye cruel world\n"); }
[07:41] <Healot> Freaking wine...
[07:41] <sean> s|k, yeah /etc/modules.conf
[07:41] <chasmarang> then gcc -c hello.c
[07:41] <chasmarang> then sudo insmod hello.o
[07:41] <intelikey> sean no
[07:42] <chasmarang> and tell me if you dont get the error
[07:42] <chasmarang> insmod: error inserting 'hello.o': -1 Invalid module format
[07:42] <intelikey> drop that .conf
[07:42] <slide> For some reason all of a sudden my sound doesnt work. Can anyone help me?
[07:42] <pab1> modules.conf can also be /etc/modprobe.d
[07:42] <baquero22> someone can help me
[07:42] <Healot> slide, work out your ears :)
[07:42] <sean> ok
[07:42] <s|k> ubotu: tell chasmarang about pasting
[07:42] <baquero22> my webcam is not working properly
[07:42] <s|k> heh
[07:42] <s|k> !paste
[07:42] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[07:42] <baquero22> when i use it with amsn it start to be bright and then dark and then bright and then dark
[07:42] <intelikey>  etc/modules
[07:42] <sean> how do I turn DMA on for my DVDROM
[07:42] <Healot> !tell baquero22  webcam
[07:43] <baquero22> like if i were playing with the controls
[07:43] <Healot> !tell baquero22 about webcam
[07:43] <Raul654> Anyone?
[07:43] <s|k> Raul654: ?
[07:43] <Raul654> After apt-getting gcc on a recent installation of ubuntu, I noticed that certain programs that worked fine on other systems became broken when I compiled on the ubuntu system. It looks like, on those ohter systems, gcc automatically includes certain header files (such as, among others, stdio.h and unistd.h) and on ubuntu it does not. Is there a setting for this somewhere?
[07:43] <baquero22> well yes,, the camera is already install
[07:43] <Healot> sean, you can turn it on in the BIOS setup or use "hdparm"
[07:43] <chasmarang> that was seven lines
[07:43] <slide> ok n/m apparently the master was muted somehow
[07:43] <baquero22> the problem is when i start to transmit the signal it starts to go crazy
[07:43] <sean> Healot, hdparm what
[07:44] <s|k> Raul654: get the live headers
[07:44] <Raul654> s|k - what do you mean?
[07:44] <Raul654> The headers are there
[07:44] <Healot> Raul654, install "build-essential" first
[07:44] <intelikey> !tell Raul654 about b-e
[07:44] <Raul654> The headers are there, it's just (unlike other systems) you have to explicitely include them
[07:44] <baquero22> someone know where are the webcam logs of amsn located???
[07:44] <intelikey> Raul654 why are you compiling things in ubuntu ?
[07:44] <CuriousCat> ok. I have another problem
[07:45] <Healot> nay, baquero22, prolly in ~/.amsn folder
[07:45] <s|k> Raul654: sorry not live headers, linux headers
[07:45] <CuriousCat> a folder that i KNOW i deleted on linux showed up on windows. but it says it's corrupted. I looked in linux and it's still there, but i get an input/output error when I try to delete it. How do I solve this?
[07:45] <Raul654> intelikey - um, I'm a phd student in computer engineering. I do a lot of coding
[07:45] <s|k> Raul654: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[07:45] <s|k> Raul654: don't forget the `
[07:45] <Raul654> s|k - and what does that install?
[07:46] <s|k> Raul654: the kernel headers
[07:46] <Healot> The kernel header fo the current kernel version
[07:46] <baquero22> Mmm what is that ~ mean???
[07:46] <intelikey> k just wondering Raul654 cause we see a lot of people trying to compile things that are in the repos, but looks like you know what you are doing.
[07:46] <Raul654> meaning what, exactly?
[07:46] <s|k> Raul654: you got me
[07:46] <s|k> Raul654: I just know I need them :0
[07:47] <C-O-L-T> hello people
[07:47] <C-O-L-T> anybody here?
[07:47] <Healot> C-O-L-T, nobody
[07:47] <Healot> is here
[07:47] <s|k> !info headers
[07:47] <Madpilot> C-O-L-T, only you and 620 others :P
[07:47] <chasmarang> nobody here just us dimmer switches
[07:47] <C-O-L-T> I am having some problems at dapper
[07:47] <Raul654> s|k - ok, so I install these linux header and that will force gcc to include those headers by default?
[07:47] <C-O-L-T> can some body help?
[07:47] <intelikey> !info build-essential
[07:47] <ubotu> build-essential: (informational list of build-essential packages), section devel, is optional. Version: 11.1 (breezy), Packaged size: 6 kB, Installed size: 48 kB
[07:47] <Healot> C-O-L-T, #ubuntu+1
[07:47] <sniper> hello
[07:48] <Madpilot> C-O-L-T, if you just asked your question, you'd have been getting help already, probably...
[07:48] <nanie> heller
[07:48] <C-O-L-T> Madpilot: how to mount my windows drive in dapper, because I can not
[07:48] <s|k> Raul654: I really don't know the details, but I know that if you need the headers, running that command will install them, I think Healot might be able to better explain what they do
[07:48] <sniper> were do i get help "docs" on ubuntu
[07:48] <intelikey> !ntfs
[07:48] <ubotu> [ntfs]  the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:48] <chasmarang> well help the guy instead of yelling at him
[07:49] <Raul654> s|k - ok, thanks :)
[07:49] <baquero22> noone know cool xploits links??
[07:49] <Madpilot> sniper, try System menu -> Help
[07:49] <Healot> they never know what the hell they actually need/want
[07:49] <sniper> thankyou i just install it
[07:49] <_ajopaul> COLT does ur /etc/fstab have the necessary entries?
[07:49] <tarheel> how do you modify the sources list with g edit
[07:49] <tarheel> its a read only
[07:50] <Madpilot> tarheel, "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[07:50] <Healot> tar prepend "sudo " before any of those "read-only-"
[07:50] <Raul654> s|k - (in case you're the least bit curious) Specifically, I'm working on converting Nasa's CG benchmark to run on (what we hope) will be the world's fastest supercomputer
[07:50] <Healot> or gksudo if you're on GNOME
[07:50] <Madpilot> tarheel, and when it asks for a password, use your own user pw
[07:50] <Raul654> so that's why this compiler thing is irritating :)
[07:50] <Healot> Raul654, ubuntu's meant for noobs...
[07:51] <Raul654> Healot - everyone minute I spend banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why some thing won't install onto red hat /mandrake is one less second I have to do more important things
[07:51] <Raul654> which is why I like ubuntu
[07:52] <Raul654> it works like I want it to (mostly)
[07:52] <opter> it was the easiest OS install I have ever done
[07:52] <baquero22> how to see in the file browser the files that are like ~/.msn
[07:52] <baquero22> i mean the folders inside
[07:52] <C-O-L-T> Madpilot: I have w32codecs but I still can not play mp3 in dapper
[07:52] <intelikey> Raul654 the compiler is not installed by default   the meta package build-essential is to automate the installation of all that is need for a full c compiler   if you only install gcc you only have a partial compiler really.
[07:53] <s|k> Raul654: it's not called skynet is it?
[07:53] <Madpilot> C-O-L-T, I don't run Dapper myself - have you asked on #ubuntu+1?
[07:53] <Raul654> S|k - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclops64
[07:53] <Raul654> Intel - I went through the online help guides and installed gcc and libc
[07:53] <Raul654> so all the header files are definitely there
[07:53] <s|k> Raul654: are you hiring any librarians ;P
[07:53] <baquero22> omg
[07:53] <mdmkolbe> Any recommendations for a dyndns client?  There seem to be several in ubuntu's universe such as ddclient and ipcheck but I don't know which are any good.
[07:53] <tarheel> its not gonna let me do it
[07:53] <GTroy> do problems happen a lot with going to duplex sound?
[07:53] <baquero22> so questions too stupid?? too new in linux... lol
[07:54] <s|k> Raul654: do you have the build-essential?
[07:54] <Madpilot> Raul654, did you install build-essential to get all the compile tools?
[07:54] <Raul654> I did a build essential, yes
[07:54] <GTroy> !duplex sound
[07:54] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, GTroy
[07:54] <Raul654> (I don't have access to the system ATM; I am saying this from memory)
[07:54] <f00f_bug> how do i stop xscreensaver from locking my display when i shut my lid?
[07:55] <Raul654> madpilot - I did *a* build install. Do I have to do it for multiple tools?
[07:55] <C-O-L-T> who uses dapper drake?
[07:55] <Raul654> erm, build essnetial*
[07:55] <GTroy> anyone know about duplex sounds?
[07:55] <Madpilot> Raul654, there is only one build-essential package
[07:55] <intelikey> !b-e
[07:55] <ubotu> well, 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.
[07:56] <Raul654> mad - ok, well I've done that
[07:56] <intelikey> Raul654 ^
[07:56] <Raul654> intel - I've put that in my list of things to try, even though I'm fairly sure I did it ocne before
[07:56] <Raul654> I'll try it again :)
[07:56] <intelikey> k
[07:57] <C-O-L-T> ANYBODY USES DAPPER DRAKE?
[07:57] <Raul654> s|k - and to answer your question - no, we don't need librarians. A good file-system developers, yes, but not a librarian
[07:57] <s|k> Raul654: oww :(
[07:57] <mdmkolbe> C-O-L-T: YES.  *ahem* you may want to go to #ubuntu+1
[07:57] <GTroy> C-O-L-T: don't shout please
[07:58] <s|k> !tell C-O-L-T about caps
[07:58] <intelikey> Raul654 if you try building something and is asks for specific libs   prolly a *devel  package needed,    you know  'apt-cache search <blah> '   is your friend  on things like that.
[07:58] <s|k> intelikey: he left
[07:59] <s|k> assuming it was a he, is Raul a guys name?
[07:59] <Matic`Makovec> yes
[07:59] <intelikey> show is
[08:00] <Matic`Makovec> anyway
[08:00] <Matic`Makovec> i have a small problem myself
[08:00] <Matic`Makovec> http://pastebin.com/608677
[08:00] <Matic`Makovec> if anyone could look at it and maybe give some solution
[08:02] <intelikey> games in wine ehh
[08:02] <Matic`Makovec> intelikey, any other suggestion about emulator?
[08:02] <Matic`Makovec> cedega wont work becouse of the xlibs
[08:02] <HymnToLife> Wine Is Not an Emulatoe :D
[08:02] <Matic`Makovec> i know that.
[08:03] <intelikey> cedega
[08:03] <HymnToLife> -e+r
[08:03] <Matic`Makovec> instabin, i just told you it wont work.
[08:03] <Matic`Makovec> pardon me, intelikey
[08:04] <intelikey> glx error   i can't help with that.
[08:04] <intelikey> maybe try cedega
[08:04] <tarheel> i cant get a media player to play a video on this thing its unreal
[08:04] <shukhrat> how i can install modem in ubuntu(breezy) is plag in play system work in Ubuntu ?
[08:04] <Matic`Makovec> http://pastebin.com/608680
[08:04] <intelikey> Matic`Makovec cedega maybe ?
[08:04] <HymnToLife> tarheel> what kind of video ?
[08:04] <Matic`Makovec> intelikey,  look at the url pls
[08:05] <tarheel> like avi files mpg files
[08:05] <tarheel> noat wont play anything
[08:05] <intelikey> maybe cedega  ?
[08:05] <HymnToLife> no way
[08:05] <tarheel> so its useless
[08:05] <HymnToLife> just get vlc
[08:05] <tarheel> it wont find em
[08:05] <Matic`Makovec> tarheel, have you installed plugins etc
[08:05] <tarheel> tried it wont find anything
[08:05] <Matic`Makovec> tarheel, and another suggestion: use xmms, gxine
[08:05] <tarheel> xmms wont play video files
[08:06] <HymnToLife> you're obviously doing something wrong
[08:06] <Matic`Makovec> tarheel, that's why gxine is there
[08:06] <HymnToLife> VLC reads most AVI and all MPGs just fine
[08:06] <tarheel> here look at this

[08:11] <canllaith> Don't seem to have it
[08:12] <tarheel> hey man you dont have to crash my system

[08:12] <dli__> where does gdm stores user session choices?
[08:12] <HymnToLife> Madpilot> never remember that URL, I tell people to use mine, it's pretty much the same
[08:12] <tarheel> i cannot modify it in anyway
[08:12] <HymnToLife> some extra repos but they are commented out
[08:12] <intelikey> canllaith modprobe snd-<your card>   ?
[08:12] <tarheel> it wont let me make any changes to the text file
[08:13] <canllaith> intelikey: Yes, I can do that, and it works, but I don't want to do that on every boot
[08:13] <Madpilot> tarheel, "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" doesn't work?
[08:13] <HymnToLife> tarheel> don't forget sudo :)
[08:13] <tarheel> i did it wont save it
[08:13] <Madpilot> tarheel, remove the "", obviously
[08:13] <tarheel> permission denied even when i run it root
[08:13] <intelikey> canllaith so put the snd-<your card>   in /etc/modules
[08:13] <Madpilot> tarheel, are you logged in as the user you created during installation?
[08:14] <tarheel> i am now
[08:14] <tarheel> i only run root privleges in terminal
[08:14] <Madpilot> tarheel, you know about sudo/gksudo, right?
[08:15] <viller> is there a way to take a screenshot so that the cursor gets on the screenshot too?
[08:16] <canllaith> intelikey: thanks

[08:19] <intelikey> tarheel did you   sudo apt-get update     so the new sources would be avalable ?
[08:20] <baquero22> cool, thanks

[08:21] <thomas> i formatted my 32bit windwos aprtition and kept my 64bit xp and did a fresh install of ubuntu dapper drake but now grub doesnt show my windows 64bit in load menu, how do i get grub to recognize my 64bit xp? i never deleted it off. its stillhere i cna browse it from linnux but it doesnt show up in grub
[08:21] <baquero22> how to install a .tar.gz in the terminal?
[08:21] <viller> is there a way to take a screenshot so that the cursor gets on the screenshot too?
[08:21] <radagrad> After upgrading to dapper on my laptop, the trackpad got *really* slow, and the mouse preferences don't seem to affect it. Any easy fix?
[08:21] <Matic`Makovec> tar -zxf file.tar.gz
[08:21] <Matic`Makovec> and then go to the filename
[08:22] <Matic`Makovec> and then you do ./confiigure && amke && make install
[08:22] <intelikey> baquero22 you don't install a tar ball  you unpack them.   tar -xzf <file.tar.gz>
[08:22] <Matic`Makovec> pardon  me, it's ./configure
[08:22] <Matic`Makovec> pardon  me, it's ./configure
[08:22] <Madpilot> radagrad, try #ubuntu+1 for Dapper questions
[08:22] <viller> is there a way to take a screenshot so that the cursor gets on the screenshot too?
[08:22] <viller> please?
[08:23] <dli__> I want to force gdm to start xfce4 for a user, how to configure?
[08:23] <mdmkolbe> Out of a n00b's curiosity, why does linux have both the 'ip route' commands and the 'route' command?  Is one preferred over/easier to use/more featureful than the other?
[08:23] <Madpilot> viller, if you're not getting an answer, it's because nobody knows...
[08:23] <viller> ok
[08:23] <viller> i'll learn to program and remake the screenshotter?
[08:23] <viller> :d
[08:23] <radagrad> Madpilot, Yeah, thanks, I got the answer I needed there.
[08:23] <dbzdeath> in your opinion would it be a good idea to do a fresh dapper install?
[08:24] <digs> what is the release schedule for ubuntu?
[08:25] <mDot> ubuntu works on a 6 month cycle
[08:25] <mDot> dapper has been pushed back a bit though
[08:26] <Madpilot> digs, early June sometime for Dapper release
[08:26] <digs> I know its six months, but I want to know if there is any date scheduled
[08:28] <ig-shoot-me> I downloaded a tar.gz and I extracted it to my desktop.  Now what do I do?
[08:28] <mDot> what did you download?
[08:28] <ig-shoot-me> gnuchess
[08:29] <mDot> navigate to the extracted folder in terminal and see if there is an install
[08:29] <intelikey> lol delete it and do an   sudo apt-get install gnuchess
[08:29] <mDot> or that...
[08:29] <ig-shoot-me> lol i tried another one like that
[08:29] <baquero22> what is the difference
[08:29] <baquero22> of # and $
[08:29] <baquero22> when they say $make and after # make install
[08:30] <intelikey> baquero22 depends entirely on where they appear
[08:30] <g0dchild> Hi, i tried getting my XP machine to connect to the internet via the Ubuntu Machine i am using- read this piece about ipmasq and dnsmasq on ubuntu forums...didnt do any good.
[08:30] <baquero22> im installing that plugin for the xmms
[08:30] <Agrajag> $ means run as a user, # means run as root
[08:30] <baquero22> so i put ./configure
[08:30] <baquero22> ok cool that was my question
[08:30] <g0dchild> I wasnt even able to connect to the internet afterwards i attempted that guide- so can someone please give a hint what I should be reading next?
[08:30] <ig-shoot-me> http://pastebin.com/608705 Help with that please
[08:31] <intelikey> baquero22 in the PS1 it is the  \$  that is expressed as  $ for uid > 0  or  # for uid < 1
[08:31] <digs> g0dchild, try firestater, it's an iptables wizard. do a "sudo apt-get install firestarter"
[08:31] <baquero22> omg
[08:31] <Madpilot> ig-shoot-me, that means you've got it installed

[08:32] <ig-shoot-me> Its not in applications >> games
[08:32] <Agrajag> baquero22: it's what I just told you
[08:32] <Madpilot> ig-shoot-me, some stuff doesn't get added to the menu automatically. try typing 'gnuchess' in a terminal
[08:32] <baquero22> yes yes i got it
[08:32] <Agrajag> k

[08:32] <ig-shoot-me> oh, yeah i have it
[08:33] <ig-shoot-me> now im figuring out how to put it in games :P
[08:33] <baquero22> i mean.. things are moving fast in the terminal
[08:33] <g0dchild> digs, ok- anyone here tried sharing an internet connection with an XP machine on LAN before?
[08:33] <baquero22> lol
[08:33] <Madpilot> ig-shoot-me, right-click on your applications menu, select Edit Menu
[08:33] <baquero22> so who told me about that thing xmms itouch?
[08:33] <baquero22> after installation what do u do?
[08:34] <Madpilot> ig-shoot-me, the rest of those errors you're getting with apt-get mean you've got a messed up sources.list...
[08:34] <ig-shoot-me> Where would it be after apt-get so i could put it in the games menu?
[08:34] <intelikey> baquero22 PS1 is the verable that the bash prompt displays    do a   echo $PS1     to see yours.   and note the  \$
[08:34] <g0dchild> and how do i forward ports on Ubuntu? throuugh the firewall?
[08:35] <baquero22> intelikey is a boot?
[08:35] <Madpilot> ig-shoot-me, in the menu editor, select the Games sub-menu, then hit the New Entry button
[08:35] <intelikey> a boot ?
[08:35] <baquero22> bot?
[08:35] <intelikey> no a shoe
[08:35] <Madpilot> ig-shoot-me, then in the Command box, just put gnuchess
[08:35] <baquero22> hahahahha
[08:35] <ig-shoot-me> Oh
[08:35] <ig-shoot-me> Madpilot: thanks
[08:36] <Madpilot> ig-shoot-me, generally, whatever works to start a program from the terminal also works when you're added in a menu entry for it
[08:36] <ig-shoot-me> Hmm..  Its not working
[08:37] <Ads_|Away>  w00t for ubuntu 
[08:37] <Decker> hello all
[08:37] <HymnToLife> !tell Decker about hello
[08:37] <Decker> lol
[08:37] <Decker> so necessary :P
[08:37] <HymnToLife> so true :p
[08:38] <ig-shoot-me> I put gnuchess in the command thing but when i select it, nothing happens
[08:39] <ig-shoot-me> So what do I do?
[08:40] <intelikey> gnome-chess - GNOME Chess
[08:40] <intelikey> ?
[08:40] <ig-shoot-me> ?
[08:40] <intelikey> emacs-chess-pieces - XPM images of chess pieces for emacs-chess
[08:41] <intelikey> ?
[08:41] <ig-shoot-me> ?
[08:41] <ig-shoot-me> Why wont gnuchess work?
[08:41] <baquero22> someone installed the xmms itouch plugin????
[08:41] <baquero22> i already installed but i dont know where to start it
[08:41] <natroll-> who did?
[08:42] <intelikey> it probably will.  but i've never messed with it so i don't know what it is supposed to do
[08:42] <intelikey> emacs-chess - a client and library for playing Chess from Emacs
[08:42] <intelikey> 3dchess - 3D chess for X11
[08:42] <baquero22> noome with me???
[08:42] <Decker> does ubuntu only support WEP keys?
[08:43] <natroll-> Decker, check out wpasupplicant
[08:43] <intelikey> ig-shoot-me  do a    gnuchess     in the terminal and see what it says
[08:43] <ig-shoot-me> It works, but not in normal
[08:43] <Ads_> Decker: no it also supports WPA
[08:43] <Decker> i have the live disk of dapper drake
[08:43] <ig-shoot-me> After unpacking 45.8MB of additional disk space will be used.
[08:44] <ig-shoot-me> What the hell is that
[08:44] <Ads_> Decker: check out >> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-90450.html
[08:44] <natroll-> Decker, i don't know if it's included on there as they're still working out the kinks in it
[08:44] <intelikey> ig-shoot-me    man gnuchess    and see what normal is  heh
[08:44] <Decker> ah
[08:44] <Decker> i'll just use wep i suppose :)
[08:45] <Ads_> Decker: yea, doesn't matter since both can be cracked so easily with kismet
[08:45] <Ads_> Decker: best thing is just to change key every week if you're really concerned
[08:45] <natroll-> Ads_, any encryption can be cracked
[08:45] <ig-shoot-me>  After unpacking 45.8MB of additional disk space will be used.
[08:45] <ig-shoot-me> What is that?
[08:45] <Ads_> natroll: that is true
[08:45] <nathaniel> Hey, I have a dell laptop with a removable cd drive and I have HD that goes goes in there....anyone know how to mount it?
[08:45] <natroll-> Ads_, but WPA2 with a sufficiently long key is for all practical purposes uncrackable
[08:46] <Ads_> natroll-: uncrackable?
[08:46] <s|k> heh
[08:46] <natroll-> Ads_, for all practical purposes, as in it would take entirely too long to crack it
[08:46] <s|k> I finally got my USB headset to work
[08:47] <s|k> with Wine LOL
[08:47] <ig-shoot-me>  After unpacking 45.8MB of additional disk space will be used.
[08:47] <ig-shoot-me> Soemone please tell me what that means
[08:47] <intelikey> ig-shoot-me  lol i just installed gnuchess  it's cli  non-graphic  app    you are probably looking for a frontend for it with  xboard
[08:47] <natroll-> Ads_, as in by the time they cracked it the info would be useless
[08:47] <Ads_> natroll-: ah I see, just missunderstood
[08:47] <natroll-> Ads_, np :D
[08:47] <Ads_> lol true.dat
[08:47] <intelikey> ig-shoot-me it means that the installer is asking permission to install "it"
[08:47] <Ads_> <Users on #ubuntu> Total:[627] 
[08:48] <Ads_> O_O
[08:48] <ig-shoot-me> intelikey: So how do i remove it?
[08:48] <intelikey> sudo apt-get remove IT
[08:49] <brown_> help i'm trying to get an intell wud 2011b wireless device to work.  It will recognize it under device manager and wireless drivers but not under iwconfig and suggestions??
[08:49] <ig-shoot-me> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[08:49] <ig-shoot-me> I get that
[08:49] <natroll-> is there a way to get the package information of all packages installed on a system?
[08:50] <Decker> bah
[08:50] <natroll-> including dependencies
[08:50] <Decker> my wep key isn't taking
[08:50] <Ads_> brown_: are you using ndiswrapper?
[08:50] <ig-shoot-me> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[08:50] <ig-shoot-me> *so what is that*
[08:50] <intelikey> ig-shoot-me so     sudo dpkg --configure -a
[08:50] <brown_> yes
[08:50] <Ads_> brown
[08:50] <Ads_> woops
[08:50] <natroll-> intelikey, know a way to get all that info?
[08:51] <Ads_> brown_: do this >> ndiswrapper -l
[08:51] <ig-shoot-me> but what will that do
[08:51] <Ads_> brown_: tell me if ur wireless device shows up as wlan0
[08:51] <intelikey> it means you stopped dpkg  while it was installing or removing something ig-shoot-me
[08:52] <ig-shoot-me> intelikey: I see
[08:52] <brown_> wlanusb driver present, hardware present
[08:52] <intelikey> natroll-   dpkg -l | grep ii
[08:52] <ig-shoot-me> intelikey: Alright, so how do i get the gnuchess so i can see the figures
[08:52] <Ads_> brown_: ok type this sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces/
[08:53] <brown_> ok
[08:54] <abhinav> I am trying to include an external library in g++ but it gives an error in the header file./usr/include/speech_tools/EST_Chunk.h:138: error: EST_ChunkPtr has not been declared
[08:54] <abhinav> .Does anyone have any iead why is this happening.
[08:54] <Ads_> brown_: scroll down a bit and look for your device (wlan0) if it's there look for a line that says "auto wlan0" if it's located under your device name then place it at the top of where that device information starts
[08:54] <abhinav> .Does anyone have any idea why is this happening.
[08:54] <brown_> no wlan just eth0
[08:54] <natroll-> intelikey, not quite the info i was looking for, but thanks
[08:54] <ig-shoot-me> intelikey: So how do i get so i can see the chess guys?
[08:54] <intelikey> ig-shoot-me maybe add  xboard    or one of the things i listed up there ^     not sure xboard and gnuchess is all it takes.
[08:54] <Ads_> brown_: you need to install drivers for your device then
[08:55] <pk> what partitions do i need to create?
[08:55] <intelikey> natroll- it can be tweeked in lots of ways,  what are you looking for prezactly ?
[08:55] <Ads_> brown_: get hold of the windows drivers and use ndiswrapper to install it
[08:55] <brown_> i did
[08:55] <HedgeMage> pk: you only *need* a swap partition and a root partition... the rest is really preference
[08:55] <Ads_> brown_: did you modprobe?
[08:55] <natroll-> intelikey, someone on motu got me covered, thanks.  particularly i was lookin for all the info in the make files, more or less
[08:56] <pk> do i need a boot partition?
[08:56] <Toma-> you dont technically *need* a swap either...
[08:56] <natroll-> intelikey, errr, control files
[08:56] <natroll-> intelikey, this was the solution: for i in `dpkg --get-selections | awk '{ print $1 }'` ; do apt-cache show $i ; done
[08:56] <pk> and how much swap should I use for a 512meg ram compaq presario 2570 laptop
[08:56] <intelikey> oh sorry i missed that i guess natroll-
[08:56] <intelikey> 0
[08:57] <natroll-> intelikey, its np
[08:57] <natroll-> intelikey, i didn't specify :)
[08:57] <intelikey> pk heh  but these guys will kick me for saying "you don't need swap"
[08:58] <Toma-> intelikey: id embrace it :)
[08:58] <pk> so uuhh
[08:58] <canllaith> pk: the rule of thumb is twice your memory
[08:58] <Ads_> intelikey: i'd actually recommend swap even with 512mb ram :P
[08:58] <canllaith> pk: especially with a laptop as you may want to use hibernate
[08:58] <pk> how about a boot partitoin?
[08:58] <ethan> hi!
[08:58] <canllaith> which writes the current 'state' to swap
[08:58] <intelikey> i know.    i know....
[08:58] <canllaith> So I'd consider it a bit silly to not use swap on a laptop
[08:58] <ethan> is anybody familiar with smnp, rhhd, mrtg, or anything similiar?
[08:59] <pk> so uuhh
[08:59] <ethan> rrd*
[08:59] <ig-shoot-me> ??
[08:59] <pk> do i need a boot partition?
[08:59] <ewood> Don't we all?
[08:59] <Toma-> i think swapfiles are better. you dont forever allocate that block of space for ever and you can resize without a fuss
[09:00] <pk> and what do i use for primary and logical?
[09:00] <ewood> Yeah. I suppose having swap in a logical volume group makes it about as easy..
[09:00] <Ads_> swap files are sexy the end :)
[09:00] <ethan> Well, what are some tools to graph network usage?
[09:00] <ethan> ;)
[09:00] <tarheel>  is this a valid command if the file you want to open is on desktop
[09:00] <tarheel> sudo chmod a+x RealPlayerGOLD.bin
[09:00] <ewood> I think a dedicated swap hard drive is sexiest.
[09:00] <pk> how about boot partition
[09:00] <Ads_> ethan: how detailed do you want the information?
[09:00] <intelikey> and i didn't say "don't use swap"  i said "you don't NEED swap"  most people feel naked without tons of swap space...     i have no swap here.  and only 98m ram.   i don't do dvd's and things like that  but i don't have any trubble with this system.
[09:01] <ewood> Boot partitions just aren't sexy..
[09:01] <canllaith> you need swap if you want to use swsup
[09:01] <ethan> Ads_: fairly detailed I guess.  It will be used to monitor a webserver's / my networks network usage ;)
[09:01] <ethan> not too detailed...
[09:01] <ewood> ok.. trubble
[09:01] <ethan> Ads_: what did you have in mind?
[09:01] <Ads_> ethan: have you done a search for a list of network monitoring apps on your source list?
[09:02] <ethan> Ads_: yes, I'm having trouble using all of them
[09:02] <Ads_> ethan: i'm not really sure since I don't monitor my network...........sorry maybe someone else who does might be able to help
[09:02] <ethan> Ads_: weird documentation.  It assumes you have EVERYTHING setup when you usually don't.
[09:04] <dli__> strange, I have two swap partitions :(
[09:05] <dli__> ubuntu doesn't use two swap partitions, right?
[09:05] <ethan> Does anybody else have any experience with network-graphing tools like mrtg, rrd, snmp ?
[09:06] <ethan> eh?
[09:07] <phoenix_> Can some1 help me with problem of installing windows 2000?
[09:07] <Matic`Makovec> isn't this ubuntu channel ?
[09:07] <Matic`Makovec> phoenix_, you might wanna try join #windows or something
[09:07] <Morrowyn> phoenix_,  #windows
[09:07] <phoenix_> hmm right
[09:07] <Karmander> hi i need some help to install ubuntu
[09:07] <Morrowyn> didnt microsoft stop supporting windows 2000 this year?
[09:08] <Karmander> is it possible to install ubuntu from the hd??
[09:08] <Morrowyn> Karmander, dunno about that, i reckon so
[09:08] <SoulPropagation> How do I use the side buttons on my mouse? (e.g. the ones that go back and forward in ie/fx/ns/winfm on windows)
[09:08] <Matic`Makovec> SoulPropagation, i guess you use logitech mouse?
[09:09] <SoulPropagation> I believe so, but it's a MS branded one
[09:09] <SoulPropagation> IntelliMouse
[09:09] <MistaED> in 2007 "what you still use that old ancient XP? upgrade to vista"
[09:09] <Karmander> if i copy the .iso file to a slave hd can I install it in the master hd??
[09:09] <ewood> I've seen a Logitech with another brand on it, but Microsoft? I thought they always made their own.
[09:09] <Matic`Makovec> Karmander, you probably should burn the image
[09:09] <SoulPropagation> I dunno
[09:10] <SoulPropagation> It's your basic 5-button mouse
[09:10] <ewood> I say that stuff about old ancient XP in 2006..
[09:10] <SoulPropagation> BackLeftScrollyRightForward
[09:10] <Ads_> !help
[09:10] <ewood> But not the vista part
[09:10] <Morrowyn> Karmander, prolly, if you mount that hd , never done that though
[09:10] <Karmander> there is another way not burning it??
[09:10] <Matic`Makovec> SoulPropagation, hows with your inputdevice in xorg.conf ?
[09:11] <Karmander> i only need the .iso file for the installation??
[09:11] <Matic`Makovec> Karmander, yes.
[09:11] <SoulPropagation>         Option          "Device"                "/dev/input/mice"
[09:11] <SoulPropagation>         Option          "Protocol"              "ExplorerPS/2"
[09:11] <Karmander> how?
[09:12] <jdprc06> does anyone know how to get pop mail to work in thunderbird?
[09:12] <Karmander> i can't burn the cd now and I'm very needed to try ubuntu now
[09:12] <lig> How do I install vim o breazy badger for amd64?  I have tried to do the "Add Applications" but only get cream.
[09:12] <Morrowyn> lig, sudo apt-get install vim
[09:12] <Karmander> anybody can help me in private
[09:12] <Morrowyn> perhaps
[09:12] <SoulPropagation> Matic`Makovec: You're wrong, please stop advising Karmander ... the thing can't be a file
[09:13] <Karmander> what?
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> Morrowyn: I believe you are correct about W2000 support ending.  I know IE7 is a no-go on it.
[09:13] <Madpilot> lig, vim should be installed by default - try from the terminal
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> jdprc06: I've never had an issue with pop; what's the problem?
[09:13] <intelikey> hmmmm that's odd i installed xboard and gnuchess to make sure that ig-shoot-me  was getting his money's worth of this free help.   and found that most of the functions are grayed out in >mode    wonder why i can't tell the computer to play one or both sides  ?????
[09:13] <lig> Morrowyn, could not get alock /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[09:13] <jdprc06> i'm using pop.mail.yahoo.com, and it won't accept my password
[09:13] <viller> what was the key to open the dialog where I can type in a command to open an app?
[09:14] <Morrowyn> lig, close synaptic
[09:14] <Karmander> Matic`Makovec if you know another way to install ubuntu please tell me
[09:14] <lig> Madpilot, I have vi - but have not seen vim
[09:14] <Madpilot> lig, ah, OK
[09:14] <lig> Hmm
[09:14] <Matic`Makovec> Karmander, i don't. i installed it only with cd
[09:15] <intelikey> viller  alt+f2 in some desktops
[09:15] <meff> is there a command that will show me the status of my rc's ?
[09:15] <tonyyarusso> jdprc06: I don't think it's a pop/TB issue, maybe a yahoo one.  It's possible you need an extension or an extra package for Yahoo.  Have you looked at TB documentation for mentions of Yahoo?
[09:15] <viller> ok thanks intelikey
[09:15] <intelikey> viller it is wm/desktop specific
[09:15] <Karmander> ok somebody ever tried to install ubuntu from a secondary hd??
[09:15] <intelikey> :)
[09:15] <jdprc06> i didn't see any
[09:15] <vskye_> lig - vi is vim, do a man vi or man vim.
[09:16] <Ads_> Karmander, that's what I intend to do soon.
[09:16] <Morrowyn> Karmander, http://marc.herbert.free.fr/linux/win2linstall.html  you might wanna read this and see if it applies to ubuntu too?
[09:16] <Karmander> Ads_ really and is it possible?
[09:16] <intelikey> vukye  ls -l `which vi`
[09:17] <intelikey> :)
[09:17] <Karmander> Morrowyn thank you I appreciate it ;)
[09:17] <Morrowyn> welcome
[09:17] <Ads_> Karmander, I don't know yet, lol I think I am going to have some trouble when I try it. My secondary hdd is SATA and it might have problems me thinks
[09:17] <Morrowyn> i hope it works for you
[09:17] <tonyyarusso> jdprc06: Okay.  I saw yahoo2mbox and fetchyahoo in the repos; don't know if those apply to you or not.  Otherwise, after you've set up the password, have you tried closing and restarting TB?  None of mine worked right away when I saved to passwords in.
[09:18] <lig> Thank you everyone
[09:18] <C-O-L-T-AWAY> how to install skype?
[09:18] <tarheel> why is this an invalid command if the file is on your desktop
[09:18] <jdprc06> yes i've done it many times.  do you know if the secure connection would do anything?  it seems to search for yahoo forever if i enable it
[09:18] <tarheel> chmod a+x RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[09:18] <Morrowyn> C-O-L-T-AWAY, doesnt the install notes on the skype tell you how to do it ?
[09:19] <Ads_> Does anyone know how I can still boot into ubuntu without install the grub loader? I plan to have ubuntu on my secondary hdd but don't want to write anything on my primary
[09:19] <Akane`Mahoru> hellp
[09:19] <Akane`Mahoru> -p +o
[09:19] <C-O-L-T-AWAY> Morrowyn: no
[09:19] <Akane`Mahoru> i am french (but i don't find suport in the frech chan) and i have a problem. i can't upload any file
[09:19] <SoulPropagation> How do I set up a 5-button mouse to recognize the back and forward buttons
[09:20] <vskye_> C-O-L-T-AWAY - uh, go to the skype website and read?
[09:20] <Morrowyn> http://tntmax.com/content/view/176/60/  first hit in google
[09:20] <Akane`Mahoru> irc,http (download form a distant computer),ftp (upload and download)
[09:20] <p01n7> anyone know much about X server errors?
[09:20] <SoulPropagation> p01n7: try #xorg
[09:21] <intelikey> Ads_ what boot loader are you using now ?
[09:21] <Akane`Mahoru> there is anybody cho can help me, please ?
[09:22] <Akane`Mahoru> who*
[09:22] <Morrowyn> Akane`Mahoru, what is your problem ?
[09:22] <Ads_> intelikeys my pc doesn't have ubuntu atm
[09:22] <Akane`Mahoru>  i can't upload any file
[09:22] <Akane`Mahoru> irc,http (download form a distant computer),ftp (upload and download)
[09:22] <Ads_> intelikey*
[09:22] <intelikey> Ads_ so you are running what os ?
[09:22] <Ads_> intelikey: windows xp
[09:22] <p01n7> does anyone here run dapper?
[09:23] <SoulPropagation> p01n7: Me
[09:23] <Morrowyn> Ads_, windows doesnt recognize other os's as valid os's for their own bootmanager
[09:23] <SoulPropagation> p01n7: And yes, I have XGL/compiz
[09:23] <Ads_> intelikey: I have ubuntu on my laptop and love it so i want it on my pc too but on my secondary hdd which is a sata drive and i don't want to write any boot record info on my primary hdd
[09:23] <p01n7> has X ever crashed on you? mine says.. active ring not flushed
[09:23] <Morrowyn> you need lilo or grub in order to boot other os's if your primary os is windows
[09:23] <SoulPropagation> Or a chain..
[09:23] <Ads_> Morrowyn I know
[09:23] <SoulPropagation> p01n7: Nope
[09:24] <Morrowyn> Ads_, try reading up on installing grub not on the primary boot sector, but on the second hd, how to boot fromt hat
[09:24] <Akane`Mahoru> Morrowyn, an idea ?
[09:24] <intelikey> Ads_ i don't think you will get M$ windows to boot linux.  you might get M$ to kick off the mbr of the sata drive, but that is a M$ question, not a linux one.
[09:24] <Morrowyn> i dunno grub, but i reckon it should be possible, i remember lilo having that option
[09:24] <SoulPropagation> Ads_: you can overwrite the MBR and it's safe
[09:25] <SoulPropagation> Ads_: Wanna run XP? Hit the XP item in the boot menu and it fires up the XP bootloader
[09:25] <Morrowyn> Akane`Mahoru, basically you dont have internet access on your ubuntu box right/
[09:25] <Akane`Mahoru> i(ve a RTC conection
[09:25] <Morrowyn> Ads_, if you wanna get rid off the grub, just fdisk /mbr under windows and it boots just windows
[09:26] <Morrowyn> Akane`Mahoru, cant help you with rtc connections, sorry
[09:26] <Akane`Mahoru> and i can't upload file but i can speak on irc
[09:26] <Ads_> SoulPropagation: the thing is i want ubuntu on my seconary hdd, i want my windows hdd intact and always left the default to boot in priority 1 order if i ever want to boot into ubuntu can't i use a flpppy or cd or something? also how will grub know of an installaion of ubuntu on my secondary hdd when the loader is installed on the primary hdd o_O
[09:27] <Akane`Mahoru> "donc" (sorry i'm bad in english) i can upload.
[09:27] <Morrowyn> Ads_, thats what the parititon table is for
[09:27] <intelikey> Ads_ grub-floppy
[09:27] <Akane`Mahoru> i see, all upload stops "autour" 10kB
[09:27] <Ads_> Morrowyn: ok well i guess i can give it a shot
[09:28] <jdprc06> where can you view the space on your file system?
[09:28] <Morrowyn> Ads_, i have windows xp and ubuntu loading from grub, works nicely
[09:28] <Morrowyn> also on 2 different hd's btw
[09:28] <Morrowyn> :)
[09:28] <intelikey> Ads_ grub-cd  either will kickoff the sata drive yes.
[09:28] <Ads_> Morrowyn: i do too on my laptop
[09:28] <Morrowyn> and fdisk /mbr
[09:28] <Morrowyn> to reset your windows boot stuff if you want to
[09:28] <Morrowyn> kick off ubuntu
[09:28] <Morrowyn> and grub
[09:28] <Ads_> well it's good to know i can use fdisk /mbr is anything goes wrong so i guess i might delve into it
[09:29] <Morrowyn> :)
[09:29] <Ads_> i really want ubuntu on my pc too :D
[09:29] <Ads_> cos it roxxx
[09:29] <Morrowyn> uhuh, i know the feeling
[09:29] <intelikey> could even make a lilo boot disk if the ubuntu initrd wasn't so bloated.
[09:29] <Madpilot> jdprc06, one way is to type "df -h" in a terminal
[09:29] <jdprc06> thanks
[09:30] <natroll-> i've had windows wig out if my mbr isn't wiped before reinstalling it
[09:30] <welemski> does anyone knows where i can get a binary package of vlc?
[09:30] <Ads_> lol if i was somehow able to i'd install ubuntu on my toaster, microwave you name it lmfao
[09:30] <natroll-> or at least not containing the m$ bootloader
[09:30] <natroll-> welemski, it's not in the repos?
[09:30] <Morrowyn> i dislike the fact that windows only support ntfs and fat
[09:30] <intelikey> linux runs the dish washer
[09:31] <Ads_> well intelikey, morrowyn: wish me luck as i am about to install ubuntu to my pc too :D if all goes well i will be back here via my pc ....if not then my laptop LOL. adios for now
[09:31] <Morrowyn> gdluck
[09:31] <Ads_> ty
[09:31] <_ajopaul> :::::: is there any way to cd to a directory created by root using sudo instead of su ........ ???
[09:31] <intelikey> linux controls the clothes dryer
[09:31] <Morrowyn> _ajopaul, sudo cd ....
[09:31] <Madpilot> _ajopaul, you shouldn't need to use sudo at all when you're just using cd
[09:32] <_ajopaul> Morrowyn
[09:32] <_ajopaul> cd command not found..
[09:32] <Morrowyn> Madpilot, doesnt it depend on the perms , say 500 on a root'd dir
[09:32] <natroll-> ....
[09:32] <intelikey> Madpilot unless it's  /root
[09:32] <natroll-> intelikey, i can cd into /root
[09:32] <_ajopaul> Madpilot, the root hasn given permission for any others to even view it..
[09:32] <intelikey> cant here
[09:32] <kev_> anyone ever set up a vpn connection to an microsoft vpn server? i'm having trouble getting pptp and pptpconfig to work: it complains that launching the call manager has failed.
[09:32] <Madpilot> yeah, I guess it would depend on the exact permissions - sorry, it's late here :P
[09:32] <natroll-> intelikey, strange
[09:33] <_ajopaul> dont like su ..
[09:33] <Morrowyn> do a ls -l on /root
[09:33] <natroll-> i think you need execute permissions on the folder to enter it
[09:33] <Morrowyn> see if group or world has +r+x rights
[09:33] <intelikey> natroll- not really.    Morrowyn  000
[09:34] <natroll-> intelikey, i'm mistaken then
[09:34] <_ajopaul> nope its drwx-------
[09:34] <Morrowyn> root is disabled by defaultf on ubuntu, you have to enable it manually
[09:34] <intelikey> not if you are root that is.   any user must have exec
[09:34] <natroll-> intelikey, yeah :)
[09:34] <welemski> is there a way where i can install a debian application without using the apt-get and get connected to the internet? like precompiled binaries for vlc?
[09:34] <intelikey> sorry the timming was bad.   i said not really to "<natroll-> intelikey, strange"
[09:34] <natroll-> welemski, dpkg -i packagename
[09:34] <welemski> yes i know...
[09:34] <_ajopaul> i can enter using su, but wanted to using sudo ..
[09:35] <welemski> but is there any vlc packages ready for download?
[09:35] <martin> yeah
[09:35] <Morrowyn> sudo apt-cache search vlc  ?
[09:35] <welemski> os x / windows are the only packages available for download
[09:35] <baquero22> i need help
[09:35] <welemski> the rest are source codes...
[09:36] <baquero22> i just installed the itouch support to the xmms
[09:36] <baquero22> and now is not opening

[09:36] <Morrowyn> use the debian package and dpkg -i it
[09:36] <natroll-> baquero22, use pastebin

[09:36] <ubotu> pastebin is, like, totally, a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar , or *Please*, after you use the pastebin, link the channel to the specific paste. Thanks!
[09:36] <Morrowyn> or apt-cache it , see if its in the rep
[09:36] <natroll-> baquero22, http://rafb.net

[09:37] <natroll-> baquero22, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[09:37] <Morrowyn> oops sorry
[09:37] <Morrowyn> nvm
[09:37] <baquero22> thats all i need???
[09:38] <Morrowyn> no, if you installed xmms/itouch from apt-get, it should be there
[09:38] <Morrowyn> you mgiht wanna check  ; ldd xmms
[09:38] <r3tex> what is that cool gnome app that ubuntu has that lets you configure your network called?
[09:38] <Morrowyn> to see if xmms does really find all the dependencies libs
[09:38] <Morrowyn> r3tex, how do you mean?
[09:39] <welemski> i don't have a vlc in my reps....
[09:39] <r3tex> Morrowyn: the tool to configure network options. it doesn't seem to be a part of the standard gnome, but ubuntu has it in its menu :P
[09:40] <Morrowyn> welemski, make sure you have certain repos opened up , edit /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment some reps there
[09:40] <kev_> anyone had issues with pptp-linux package and glibc complaining about double frees?
[09:40] <Morrowyn> oh, i have no idea, i always
[09:40] <welemski>  i just want to install the binary pack of vlc without going through the apt-get... i don't have a very fast internet connection at home...
[09:40] <Morrowyn> do it manually
[09:40] <welemski> i want to use dpkg -i
[09:41] <Morrowyn> through ifconfig or the distro inet.conf files
[09:41] <welemski> but i only downloaded the source code...
[09:41] <r3tex> Morrowyn: i was thinking more for the wireless config part
[09:41] <welemski> do you have a binary pack for vlc?
[09:41] <Morrowyn> uhm
[09:41] <welemski> :D
[09:41] <r3tex> wlassistant is a bit of a hassle
[09:41] <Morrowyn> i did that manully
[09:41] <r3tex> ok
[09:41] <Phlosten> welemski, download all the dependant .deb package files and put them into your apt-get cache directory
[09:42] <welemski> next?
[09:42] <Morrowyn> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[09:42] <Morrowyn> you might wanna read that one
[09:42] <baquero22> i just install that thing
[09:42] <Phlosten> welemski, then runs synaptic and it will find the files before it downloads them
[09:42] <baquero22> libmikmod2
[09:42] <natroll-> welemski, download the package manually from the repositories and make sure you have all the dependencies
[09:42] <baquero22> and my xmms still not opening
[09:43] <Morrowyn> it looks like either a perm setting or the lib is broken
[09:43] <baquero22> i cannot sleep if my xmms is not playing
[09:43] <Morrowyn> run from nautilus
[09:43] <Morrowyn> perhaps, that one has abuilt in mp3 thingy or something
[09:44] <anubis_> how to remove the Debian menu?
[09:44] <Morrowyn> right click the menu thing, edit menu

[10:09] <Tortanick> hi
[10:09] <TheBigDot> Does anyone know how to make a swap partition?!
[10:09] <Tortanick> easy
[10:09] <jolly_> mkswapon
[10:09] <jdprc06> can i just add it to the fstab?
[10:09] <Matic`Makovec> TheBigDot, you could do it with cfdisk
[10:09] <jolly_> mkswap
[10:09] <jolly_> :)
[10:09] <Tortanick> or gparted
[10:09] <Matic`Makovec> i mean..the partition
[10:09] <Matic`Makovec> then mkswap and swapon
[10:09] <jolly_> mkswap /dev/blabla
[10:10] <jolly_> :-)
[10:10] <TheBigDot> Jolly_, will it format anything on my old partition?
[10:10] <Tortanick> gparted is like fdisk but has a GUI
[10:10] <Matic`Makovec> yep, sth like jolly_ said
[10:10] <Tortanick> if you get the Live CD of Gparted
[10:10] <TheBigDot> It won't format anything?
[10:11] <TheBigDot> I don't want my Ubuntu partition fried because of this.
[10:11] <TheBigDot> So are you guys sure?
[10:11] <Tortanick> not sure about fdisk, I don't think Gparted will
[10:11] <Tortanick> didn't format anything when I used it
[10:11] <TheBigDot> Tortanick, so you are saying that Gparted won't format?
[10:12] <TheBigDot> Good. Thank you!!! :)
[10:12] <Tortanick> I'm saying it probobly won't format
[10:12] <TheBigDot> Will it warn me if there is going to be any formatting?
[10:12] <jdprc06> i got it to work
[10:13] <jdprc06> this is amazing
[10:13] <jdprc06> thanks

[10:14] <TheBigDot> Although my mouse froze. :'(
[10:15] <Tortanick> hmm, I'm not sure how gparted would work with a LiveCD version of linux

[10:15] <TheBigDot> 				I did.
[10:16] <TheBigDot> I am using Knoppix as my Live CD.

[10:21] <Tortanick> it should be on the top of your screen, a picture of the earth
[10:21] <NewUSER> The fire fox is there, m using a windows modem
[10:21] <NewUSER> But i dont no how to dial out
[10:22] <NewUSER> Or setup my modem like i normally would in windows
[10:22] <welemski> you have to configure the modem...
[10:22] <Tortanick> I don't know about modems, over to you welemski
[10:22] <NewUSER> Ok how?
[10:22] <Madpilot> !+winmodem
[10:22] <ubotu> [winmodem]  To get started with winmodems on linux, see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/
[10:22] <Madpilot> !+modem
[10:22] <ubotu> modem is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[10:22] <welemski> :D
[10:22] <Madpilot> NewUSER, check those two URLs out ^^^
[10:22] <dli__> NewUSER, winmodem is bad luck
[10:22] <NewUSER> Thanks.:-)
[10:23] <dli__> NewUSER, what's the modem? in lspci
[10:23] <NewUSER> No idea its a winmodem
[10:23] <BillyJoejimbob> but if you are using a conextant softmodem won't you have to pay for the drivers?
[10:24] <NewUSER> Its a conexant
[10:24] <BillyJoejimbob> oh bummer
[10:24] <BillyJoejimbob> hang on let me get the page to go to newuser
[10:24] <dli__> NewUSER, the linuxant bastards charge $19.99 for a driver license
[10:25] <sekhar> how to give permiossion to user to access ntfs
[10:25] <Tortanick> so dose anyone here know about Pure-FTP?
[10:26] <NewUSER> :-( i really love using linux even tho m still learning. My only dilema is the internet
[10:26] <dli__> NewUSER, I just bought an external modem for $19.95 CAN, after being disgusted by linuxant
[10:27] <dli__> NewUSER, you may want to have a look, it's an actiontec EX560LKU serial/USB modem, I'm using it now, so I know it works in linux
[10:28] <[Leo] > hi
[10:28] <locomorto> hey Leo
[10:29] <locomorto> btw, I thought the dapper delay was confirmed?
[10:29] <NewUSER> What books are good to buy to get round ubuntu linux
[10:29] <[Leo] > daper delay?
[10:29] <[Leo] > what delay?
[10:29] <Madpilot> NewUSER, there aren't any specific Ubuntu books yet
[10:29] <fluxt> there are books for ubuntu?
[10:29] <fluxt> ahh
[10:29] <NewUSER> :-( any suggestions
[10:29] <Dewi> [Leo] : somebody in the last few days said "6 more weeks"
[10:30] <Madpilot> There's a bunch coming, though, when Dapper is released
[10:30] <fluxt> NewUSER: google is good
[10:30] <Dewi> [Leo] : which by my calendar would make it 6.05 instead of 604
[10:30] <locomorto> NewUSER: You can however read the www.ubuntuforums.org forums
[10:30] <Dewi> [Leo] : ohwait
[10:30] <Madpilot> NewUSER, wiki.ubuntu.com & in your own Ubuntu install, System menu -> Help
[10:30] <Dewi> [Leo] : actually it wouldn't. close though :)
[10:30] <locomorto> I think its July/June the 1st (whichever comes first, I get mixed up)
[10:30] <BillyJoejimbob> newuser go to this page: http://www.linmodems.org/ that should help you with the driver you will need for your system
[10:30] <Madpilot> Dewi, 6.06 now
[10:30] <Dewi> Madpilot: really?
[10:30] <BillyJoejimbob> and yes you might have to pay for it
[10:30] <NewUSER> :-( ya but i cant get onto to internet to go an read, im using my mobile to irc to get help
[10:30] <[Leo] > 6.06...?
[10:30] <[Leo] > :(
[10:31] <NewUSER> Last question
[10:31] <[Leo] > but why?
[10:31] <locomorto> [Leo] : As I understand, most of the work is going into polish
[10:31] <NewUSER> Ppl, i no im a nag
[10:31] <BillyJoejimbob> go ahead newuser
[10:31] <[Leo] > mmm
[10:32] <[Leo] > so just wait...
[10:32] <locomorto> It should be stable enough if you don't mind taking a risk (ie not a buisness ;))
[10:32] <NewUSER> Wt the command to mount an ntfs drive
[10:32] <[Leo] > locomorto: i'm on a dapper now
[10:32] <[Leo] > i trust unstable ubuntu versions too
[10:32] <[Leo] > :)
[10:32] <gyaresu> NewUSER, man mount
[10:32] <PsyberOne> I use dapper everyday, there doing some UI polishing and QA work to make sure dapper shines as a major release
[10:32] <Dewi> Madpilot/locomorto: I'm currently trying to decide whether to install dapper or breezy for my *grandmother* (she can't really justify buying windows and it should be mainly firefox and openoffice usage I think)
[10:33] <C-O-L-T> how to install skype
[10:33] <C-O-L-T> There are some dependencies
[10:33] <C-O-L-T> what to instal
[10:33] <Dewi> C-O-L-T: the dependancies, presumably
[10:33] <Tortanick> I'm going to setup pure FTP and I would Like to know where the files ( the ones I'm going to transfure, not config or anything) are kept. anyone know?
[10:33] <welemski> you can download a static binary for skype
[10:33] <C-O-L-T> Dewi: how to install those dependencies
[10:33] <Madpilot> Dewi, go with Breezy, and upgrade her when Dapper is final
[10:33] <[Leo] > Dewi: dapper is almost sbale
[10:33] <[Leo] > *stable
[10:33] <Dewi> yeah... but I wonder how the upgrade is likely to go
[10:34] <Dewi> oh, wait a minute, we're using dpkg. Upgrade should be fine :P
[10:34] <Dewi> right?
[10:34] <PsyberOne> from what I've heard it's OK at this point
[10:34] <Dewi> or am I being overconfident?
[10:34] <Madpilot> Dewi, dist-upgrade is generally painless
[10:34] <locomorto> Dewi: well there could be some problems upgrading (from dapper to dapper-final)
[10:34] <fluxt> you can never be too overconfident!
[10:34] <BillyJoejimbob> backup everything first dewi just in case
[10:34] <Dewi> locomorto: I mean from breezy to dapper final
[10:34] <locomorto> Dewi: going from breezy to dapper-final should be fine though
[10:34] <PsyberOne> there may be a few manual ops needed but overall good
[10:34] <C-O-L-T> How to install skype dependencies\?
[10:35] <misterii> I can't bittorrent in Xubuntu (BT crashed) how do 'I do it in console?
[10:35] <Dewi> locomorto / [Leo]  / Madpilot : yeah, I'll stick with breezy for now. Thanks!
[10:36] <misterii> *kill
[10:36] <misterii> I cant KILL bittorrent even
[10:36] <Matic`Makovec> i have two rows of some text
[10:37] <Matic`Makovec> what command should i use and how so i could add something to the second one keeping both as they are
[10:37] <Matic`Makovec> well second with this word which i'd add.
[10:37] <baquero22> i just configured my mouse MX700 and i restarted the computer and the buttoms changed again.... then in the terminal y wrote this
[10:37] <[Leo] > misterii: try kill -9 <pid_of_bt>
[10:37] <baquero22> #!/bin/sh
[10:37] <baquero22> exec xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5" &
[10:37] <baquero22> exec imwheel -k -b "67" &
[10:37] <baquero22> exec $REALSTARTUP
[10:37] <Matic`Makovec> i have a feeling that sed could do it but i'm not really good in bash scripting
[10:37] <baquero22> but do i have to to that each time i restart my computer???
[10:39] <misterii> [Leo] , <pid_of_bt>? as is?
[10:39] <Matic`Makovec> look at ps x
[10:39] <[Leo] > misterii: the PID of BT process
[10:39] <Matic`Makovec> you have row with pids there
[10:39] <[Leo] > misterii: ps aux | grep bittorrent
[10:40] <Matic`Makovec> and then look the number next to proces you want to kill and kill it with kill -9 pidnum
[10:40] <misterii> what does pid mean?
[10:40] <Matic`Makovec> process id
[10:40] <[Leo] > pid = process id
[10:40] <revolutionary> hey
[10:42] <misterii> which is the pid here? misteri   9029  0.0  1.2   3168   756 pts/0    S+   11:40   0:00 grep bittorrent
[10:42] <BillyJoejimbob> how do i make opera the default browser. so that whenever i clink on a link in tbird etc it opens opera instead of firefox/
[10:43] <[Leo] > misterii: pid = 9029
[10:44] <misterii> [Leo] , it says that the process does not exist
[10:44] <revolutionary> attention ! attention !
[10:44] <baquero22> hey i download ubuntu like a week ago
[10:44] <misterii> xDDD
[10:44] <baquero22> and my radar map is not working
[10:44] <baquero22> would be nice to make it work again
[10:44] <Frogzoo> revolutionary:  zzzzzzzzz........
[10:45] <baquero22> guys.. lets talk about my radar map
[10:45] <revolutionary> World Wide Demonstrations Sat Mar. 18 Oppose Bush's Oil Wars!!! Move on The capital in your area!
[10:46] <[Leo] > misterii: yep! it doesn't exists
[10:46] <[Leo] > do you know the name of bittorrent process?
[10:46] <heyjoe2> hi, ubuntu seems to be taken a lot of time to load up, much longer than windows, stalling particularly on the raid devices. how do i speed it up and save those features
[10:46] <[Leo] > which bt client are you using?
[10:46] <Frogzoo> BillyJoejimbob: sys -> prefs -> preffered applications -> web browswer
[10:46] <misterii> bittorrent
[10:47] <misterii> thats the name IMHO
[10:47] <BillyJoejimbob> thanks frogzoo
[10:47] <misterii> its the default-app I'm using
[10:47] <[Leo] > misterii: are you using azureus, or something else?
[10:47] <[Leo] > gnome bittorrent client?
[10:47] <misterii> yes
[10:47] <misterii> GBC
[10:48] <heyjoe2> hi, ubuntu seems to be taken a lot of time to load up, much longer than windows, stalling particularly on the raid devices. could someone tell me how to speed it up and save that process?
[10:50] <SysFail> Does anybody have an up to date site for installing sun java JRE on 5.10 ??
[10:50] <Madpilot> !java
[10:50] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[10:51] <Madpilot> SysFail, ^^^
[10:52] <SysFail> E: Couldn't find package java-package
[10:52] <SysFail> thats been my problem
[10:52] <SysFail> was it removed?
[10:52] <SysFail> man i hate sun
[10:53] <SysFail> i have backports and everything else enabled
[10:54] <Frogzoo> SysFail: see ubotu ^^^^
[10:54] <heyjoe2> hi, ubuntu seems to be taken a lot of time to load up, much longer than windows, stalling particularly on the raid devices. could someone tell me how to speed it up and save that process?
[10:54] <SysFail> I did frog...thats why i pasted that error
[10:55] <Madpilot> !info java-package
[10:55] <ubotu> java-package: (utility for building Java(TM) 2 related Debian packages), section multiverse/misc, is optional. Version: 0.26 (breezy), Packaged size: 20 kB, Installed size: 308 kB
[10:55] <baquero22> how to make my radar map work???
[10:55] <Madpilot> SysFail, you probably need to enable the Universe/Multiverse repositories
[10:55] <SysFail> im sure multiverse is enabled too
[10:55] <SysFail> let me double check
[10:55] <neo911> hey i remember i added a line to some file somewhere to make my emacs have color coding... but cant remember... does anyone remember doing the same? thanks
[10:56] <Madpilot> SysFail, compare your sources.list to this one: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[10:57] <neo911> anyone know why the DNS entries in the Network Monitor would time out? mine does and always replaces the entries with my gateway's address
[10:59] <SysFail> that did it...ill be damn...it was my sources.list..thanks madpilot
[11:00] <Madpilot> SysFail, np
[11:00] <SysFail> now to setup galleon :)
[11:01] <VladimirBG> can someone please help me remove bootloader from MBR so I can boot into Win? I installed ubuntu on unpartitioned space beside windows partition, formating is not an option!
[11:01] <VladimirBG> I use ubuntu 5.10 with lilo
[11:01] <jjs0ah> VladimirBG: insert windows/dos boot disk. fdisk /mbr
[11:02] <VladimirBG> jjs0ah, and that's all?
[11:02] <jjs0ah> VladimirBG: that easy
[11:02] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[11:02] <linuxboyfriend> i have many kernel installed, how can remove some of them?
[11:03] <raed> ...with synaptic
[11:04] <linuxboyfriend> raed, hmm lemme check
[11:04] <VladimirBG> one more question, when I started live ubuntu, it was working great, but the installed version keps giving me trouble, like refusing to open networking, and similar services, and neither one can see my win partition? with mandriva I could do that, and in knoppix too...
[11:04] <raed> at boottime you see a list of your choices
[11:04] <VladimirBG> what could be wrong?
[11:05] <jolly_> hello iam trying to compile my own kernel, but when i do "make menuconfig" its says that i need ncurses-devel to be runned.. I tried to install that package with aptiude but its still complains
[11:05] <raed> and you can safely unistall the oldest kernels with synaptic
[11:05] <jolly_> the reason for iam trying to compile my own kernel is because of my soundcard :/
[11:05] <jolly_> I dont get any sound
[11:05] <jolly_> everything looks fine
[11:06] <jolly_> but  i still got no sound:/
[11:06] <H0lyD4wg> will it cause problems if i upgrade straight from hoary to dapper without going through breezy first?
[11:07] <Madpilot> H0lyD4wg, probably :P
[11:08] <Madpilot> Hoary -> Breezy -> Dapper would proably be safer
[11:08] <linuxboyfriend> raed, thnnks
[11:08] <Toma-> jolly_: can you try the dapper live cd?
[11:09] <neo911> anyone know why the DNS entries in the Network Monitor would time out? mine does and always replaces the entries with my gateway's address
[11:09] <raed> np
[11:10] <Tortanick> whats the minimum size for a root partition?
[11:10] <moret> hi all
[11:10] <Matic`Makovec> neo911, manually edit /etc/resolv.conf with nameserver your.ip.of.nameserver
[11:10] <moret> I'm looking for amule daemon integrated with ubuntu system
[11:10] <Matic`Makovec> Tortanick, well as much as you need..
[11:11] <Matic`Makovec> moret, tried apt-get install amule?
[11:11] <neo911> Matic`Makovec yes the entries are there
[11:11] <moret> Matic`Makovec: amule package has not daemon
[11:11] <moret> at init.d
[11:11] <Tortanick> I plan to have a combined FTP and Mail server
[11:11] <Matic`Makovec> moret, oh, that
[11:11] <Matic`Makovec> moret, that's something i don't know.
[11:11] <Tortanick> so I want to keep them on seprate partitions
[11:11] <Matic`Makovec> you could crontab it maybe.
[11:11] <H0lyD4wg> Madpilot, thanks, i'll just d/l a dapper cd then.
[11:11] <Tortanick> but it says it needs a root partition
[11:12] <Tortanick> so whats the minimum for that?
[11:12] <Matic`Makovec> Tortanick, well if you will use ubuntu only for web and mail
[11:12] <Matic`Makovec> you could give to root as much as 5gb
[11:12] <Matic`Makovec> not more.
[11:12] <Tortanick> 5gb, thanks
[11:12] <Matic`Makovec> there isn't any minimal actuall afaik
[11:13] <Madpilot> Tortanick, for just a server install (no GUI) I think Ubuntu takes up less than 1Gb - so a root partition of 2 or 3Gb might be possible, if space is tight
[11:15] <misterii> I downloaded and installed sk@le but when starting the skale.x86 it doesn't do a thing... anyone know why?
[11:16] <jolly_> Toma- sure whwre do i get that?
[11:16] <Tortanick> space isn't tight (and I'm installing Gnome), I just didn't know how much to give to the root partition
[11:16] <Toma-> jolly_: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/flight5
[11:16] <Tortanick> one more question though
[11:16] <misterii> it says its executing it, but I can see skale GUI
[11:16] <jolly_> ok
[11:16] <jolly_> :)
[11:17] <Tortanick> for the FTP files (the ones I transfure not config files) what mount point to I use, I'm useing PureFTP
[11:17] <Frogzoo> Tortanick: really depends on what you want to have on /
[11:17] <Toma-> jolly_: i found the kernel in flight 5 worked great for me. if that doesnt work, then theres no point updating the kernel. also, if it doesnt work, file a bug ;) and if it does work, then try updating the kernel
[11:17] <jolly_> what is the diffrent between livecd and the orginal ubuntu?
[11:17] <baquero22> As root, issue a python setup.py install.
[11:17] <baquero22> what is that issue a python??
[11:18] <neo911> im using badger and i don't know why my network monitor always replaces the DNS entries.  the /etc/resolv.conf file contains the correct entries but once the DNS entry in network monitor gets replaced my my routers ip i can't connect to internet anymore... i think this usually happens when my machine is idle (network wise)
[11:18] <Toma-> jolly_: livecd runs from the cd, original recipie needs to be installed
[11:18] <Frogzoo> jolly_: live cd runs off the cd & because of that, it's rather limited in what it can do
[11:18] <HappyFool> baquero22: that means run the command 'python setup.py' -- 'as root' means you need to run it using sudo
[11:18] <Toma-> neo911: check for any 'odd' things in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[11:19] <baquero22> oki thanks
[11:19] <Toma-> bbl.
[11:19] <nem-> :] 
[11:19] <HappyFool> is there a 'checkinstall' for python setup.py scripts ?
[11:20] <neo911> can i dump my /etc/network/interaces contents here?
[11:20] <HappyFool> baquero22: i'd recommend investigating checkinstall before installing non-ubuntu software
[11:20] <bimberi> neo911: no, use the pastebin ...
[11:20] <bimberi> !pastebin
[11:20] <ikaros> how can erase the mbr with fdisk? what device is the mbr?
[11:20] <bimberi> !+pastebin
[11:21] <ubotu> rumour has it, pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar , or *Please*, after you use the pastebin, link the channel to the specific paste. Thanks!
[11:21] <rawphi> does someone know how the wlan&wpa_supplicant magic is supposed to work in dapper?
[11:21] <HappyFool> the mbr is (i think) the first 512 bytes of the device (e.g., of /dev/hda)
[11:21] <neo911> i posted it in #pastebin
[11:22] <HappyFool> ikaros: what are you trying to achieve?
[11:22] <ikaros> i need to kill a senseless grub HappyFool =)
[11:22] <ikaros> accidently installed on onto mbr but i yet have one on /boot partition
[11:23] <welemski> bye-bye peps
[11:23] <bimberi> neo911: where? post the url here :)
[11:23] <welemski> thansk for the help...
[11:24] <HappyFool> ikaros: do you wish to use the NT bootloader, or reinstall grub, or something else?
[11:24] <neo911> http://pastebin.com/608817
[11:25] <neo911> thats the contents of my /etc/network/interfaces
[11:25] <ikaros> nono.. i just want to use my old grub on /boot.. i now have 2 grubs installed.. its annyoing not more
[11:25] <neo911> does anyone know if its the one that causes my network monitor to remove my DNS entries periodically? idle or not
[11:25] <ikaros> the second one was installed into mbr on hda and it isnt configured
[11:26] <ikaros> so every time i boot i have grub say: grub =)
[11:26] <ikaros> i just need to erase it so it boots the old grub on my /boot partition
[11:27] <ikaros> but i cant seem to find info about erasing grub with fdisk or something similar.. when i google i find windows/dos tuts..
[11:28] <NewUSER> Can one run windows applications on ubuntu
[11:28] <HappyFool> ikaros: it would probably be easier run grub from the command-line to fix where it looks for the stage1.5 loader and so on at boot.  Look in the docs for how to install grub
[11:28] <Madpilot> NewUSER, with Wine or Cedega - but finding a Linux-native alternate is usually much easier
[11:29] <dli__> NewUSER, yes, read winehq.org
[11:29] <ikaros> grub hangs before reaching any stage... believe me it would be easiest to just erase mbr :/
[11:29] <NewUSER> Thanks alot
[11:29] <bimberi> neo911: i don't know what does that.  I've seen people with similar issues told to "fix the config of their dhcp server".  You could try adding 'dns-nameservers' lines to your interfaces file.  Here's mine - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10444
[11:30] <ikaros> and my other grub IS configured.. it just isnt reached because mbr is first always
[11:30] <NewUSER> Any suggestions on a linux program that works as an accounting package
[11:30] <NewUSER> ?
[11:30] <bimberi> NewUSER: gnucash
[11:30] <Madpilot> later, all
[11:30] <NewUSER> Thank you
[11:30] <jjs0ah> bimeri neo911: dhcp was messing up my dns settings. i ended up setting the interface up statically and it went away. not exactly a fix :\
[11:31] <HappyFool> ikaros: this wiki page might give you some hints: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[11:32] <bimberi> NewUSER: yw :)  by the way you can use Synaptic to search for packages , for example for 'accounting' in Name & Description
[11:32] <neo911> what do you mean statically? where can i do this? my /etc/resolv.conf already has the entries... it;'s the entries in the network monitor DNS tab thats get replaced by my router ip addr that messes things up
[11:32] <bimberi> jjs0ah: yes, mine is static too
[11:32] <ikaros> thx so far HappyFool
[11:32] <HappyFool> ikaros: especially the `recovering grub manually' bits
[11:32] <jjs0ah> neo911: i mean in /etc/network/interfaces .. i changed the interface to have static settings.. dhcp is no longer run, resolv.conf is no longer getting overwritten
[11:32] <ikaros> ye
[11:33] <neo911> jjs0ah so the post my bimberi in  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10444 should fix my problem\?
[11:34] <jjs0ah> neo911: at a glance, that configuration looks fine
[11:36] <fek> moin
[11:36] <DarthShrine> Wow...Ubuntu takes an age to load via LiveCD...Seemingly
[11:37] <neo911> bimberi thanks im trying your post, hope it works...
[11:37] <bimberi> neo911: you can always go back to your post if it doesn't :)
[11:38] <neo911> i always back up don't worry he he
[11:38] <DarthShrine> The background has loaded! Amazing.
[11:38] <bimberi> neo911: fyi another option is to set up /etc/resolv.conf the way you want it then execute "sudo chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf'.  Then even root can't change the file (until you do 'chattr -i').
[11:39] <misterii> hey peeps
[11:40] <neo911> i see only one problem with the code in pastebin, if i get assigned a different ip address by the dhcp server

[11:43] <neo911> thanks guys
[11:43] <simon__> ltsp help please. Keyboard working eratically at gnome desktop manager login phase
[11:44] <VladimirBG> jjs0ah, I tryed what you said, but winxp disc has no fdisk. i did find fixmbr, whitch I did and now I get a mesage at boot sayin nontldr found and boot stalls! how can I revert boot to win from ubuntu?
[11:44] <bimberi> neo911: np :) good luck
[11:44] <myki> I have installed app which placed file, sat xyz in /usr/local/bin. The issue is, that I can't run it through $ xyz, but I must go to the /usr/local/bin and type ./xyz. What should I do to be able to run it from any directory?
[11:44] <VladimirBG> jjs0ah, now even ubuntu wont start
[11:44] <HappyFool> myki: /usr/local/bin must be in the PATH variable
[11:45] <HappyFool> myki: run 'echo $PATH' to see what your PATH is at the moment -- mine has /usr/local/bin, though I don't recall adding it
[11:45] <myki> HappyFool: Yes, it is. I can run any program which is in usr/local/bin just typping it's name after $
[11:45] <myki> HappyFool: But I have problem with this one ;\
[11:45] <neo911> not enough luck, my dns entry expired again, guess the changes didnt work :-(
[11:46] <HappyFool> myki: does '/usr/local/bin/programname' work ?
[11:46] <myki> HappyFool: [11:43:pts/2] [miki@m1:/usr/local] > echo $PATH; /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/games:/usr/X11R6/bin
[11:46] <jjs0ah> VladimirBG: you can use your ubuntu install disk as a rescue disk. boot to and use grub-install to put grub back into the mbr
[11:46] <myki> HappyFool: I want to be able to run it just typping $ xyz, without going to /usr/local/bin.
[11:47] <k31th> Do you guys build your own kernels on ubuntu ?
[11:47] <HappyFool> myki: indeed. I am trying to help you diagnose the problem
[11:47] <HappyFool> myki: so, does /usr/local/bin/progname work ?
[11:47] <myki> HappyFool: Even chmod is the same
[11:47] <myki> HappyFool: no, $ /usr/local/bin/xyz runs the app
[11:48] <bimberi> myki: what does 'which xyz' return?
[11:48] <HappyFool> myki: have you tried restarting the shell?
[11:48] <myki> HappyFool: And I don't know why just $ xyz doesn't work whilst it's in $path
[11:49] <myki> bimberi: echo `which xyz` doesnt return anything
[11:49] <HappyFool> myki: bash can get confused about the path, especially after uninstalling stuff (iirc)
[11:49] <myki> HappyFool: actually, im using tcsh
[11:49] <HappyFool> myki: well, try restarting anyway
[11:49] <myki> k
[11:49] <myki> HappyFool: omg, what worked. Thx a lot btw ;)
[11:50] <HappyFool> np ;)
[11:50] <jjs0ah> k31th: you can but I think most people are using the precompiled kernels / modules
[11:52] <jchillerup> Hi. I've just compiled a kernel, but I still need an initrd file. How do I create a such?
[11:52] <neo911> #gcc
[11:52] <Matic`Makovec> mkinitrd ?
[11:53] <jchillerup> mkinitramfs
[11:53] <jchillerup> ?
[11:53] <Matic`Makovec> no
[11:53] <k31th> init rd yes.
[11:53] <Matic`Makovec> apt-cache search mkinitrd
[11:53] <Matic`Makovec> and install that.
[11:54] <jchillerup> Thank you very much!
[11:54] <jchillerup> bootcd-mkinitrd - bootcd extension to create an initrd-image usable for bootcd
[11:54] <jchillerup> mkinitrd-cd - Creates an initrd image for booting from a live CD-ROM or USB device
[11:54] <jchillerup> err... Is it one of those two?
[11:54] <neo911> i tried to compile my code and got "gcc: installation problem, cannot exec 'cc1plus': No such file or directory
[11:54] <neo911> neo911 " i have a fresh OS install, am i missing any package? thanks..
[11:55] <Jimmey__> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[11:55] <Jimmey__> ?
[11:55] <jchillerup> I have that already
[11:55] <Matic`Makovec> jchillerup, it is
[11:55] <jchillerup> should I just pick one of them?
[11:55] <Matic`Makovec> jchillerup, install them both.
[11:55] <Mabus06> how come I can no longer access my windows after installing ubuntu? (grub is installed to mbr)
[11:56] <Jimmey__> Check it there with 'sudo fdisk -l'
[11:56] <jchillerup> Mabus06, because your grub menu got altered...
[11:56] <Mabus06> I get a blue screen that says I should check to see if the disk is good but I can still access it read only from ubuntu
[11:56] <jchillerup> Your windows installation is still intact.
[11:57] <Mabus06> yes, seems so
[11:58] <milamber> lo everyone,
[11:58] <NewUSER> Lo
[11:58] <milamber> when i play wmv or some mpeg files, the sound and vieuw is not steady, some suggestions ?
[11:59] <jchillerup> Perhaps you use a wrong output driver?
[11:59] <jchillerup> Do you use mplayer?
[11:59] <milamber> yes i use mplayer
[11:59] <Mabus06> Jimmey__, jchillerup... I did 'sudo fdisk -l' and everything looks fine...
[11:59] <jchillerup> Yeah
[12:00] <jchillerup> milamber, try invoking it like this: mplayer -vo xv [file] 
[12:00] <jchillerup> Mabus06, Aye.. You have to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:01] <Jimmey__> Mabus06, can you select your Windows OS from the GRUB menu?
[12:01] <Mabus06> Jimmey__: yes, I select it and I get a blue screen that says windows could not start properly
[12:01] <milamber> it is a stream, jchillerup i played it realtime ( no it is not a buffering problem cause mplayer pre buffer the whole movie, exmpl (http://www.bigfun.be/Movie/When+Keeping+it+Real.htm )
[12:01] <Jimmey__> Do you have a boot floppy, or a Windows CD?
[12:01] <Mabus06> jchillerup: why would I need to do that? windows is there, and I haven't modified my grub yet
[12:02] <Mabus06> Jimmey__: just the install cd
[12:02] <jchillerup> Something has, Mabus06
[12:02] <jchillerup> milamber, Hm... Try numpad + or - to adjust syncing
[12:02] <Jimmey__> You could try repearing your Windows partition with the install CD
[12:02] <MistaED> hmm with WMVHD, is it just a limitation that it's choppy or is there a solution? i have a >3ghz rated system so it's not hardware limited
[12:02] <jchillerup> That would overwrrite grub
[12:02] <jchillerup> And then he/she can't boot into ubuntu
[12:02] <Mabus06> jchillerup: only thing I have done close to that is edit the partition table to automatically mount my windows paritions
[12:03] <jchillerup>  /etc/fstab?
[12:03] <milamber> i've got the win32codecs gnomefreak, buth a place on the restricted site  that says.. ? where ?
[12:03] <Mabus06> jchillerup: yes, should I pastebin?
[12:03] <Jimmey__> jchillerup, he could fix that with an Ubuntu install / liveCD
[12:04] <gnomefreak> !restricted
[12:04] <Mabus06> Jimmey__: I'd like to check other options before reinstalling both operating systems.
[12:04] <ubotu> from memory, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[12:04] <Jimmey__> Mabus06, I'm not suggesting you do that - I'm saying that on the Windows CD there's an option ( I'm assuming ) to check the state of your Windows install, like scandisk
[12:04] <Spde> wtf, im following a tutorial but when i got do the add user part ubuntu just asked for username and password?? i need to add home dir, group etc.?
[12:05] <gnomefreak> Note: If you are experiencing choppy audio when playing WMV files, try [WWW]  this fix.
[12:05] <gnomefreak> find that line on that page and click it ;)
[12:05] <flogiston> How do I find were the executable for openoffice?
[12:05] <bimberi> Spde: what command did you run?  adduser?
[12:05] <Jimmey__> locate ooffice2
[12:05] <Spde> bimberi: yeh
[12:06] <Spde> bimberi: ask for stuff like phone numer :D but not group and homedir =P
[12:06] <bimberi> Spde: 'ls /home' it's probably done it for you
[12:07] <Spde> bimberi: i want it to be /usr/ftp/username.. how do i change it?
[12:07] <wictor> ,
[12:08] <gnomefreak> milamber: on ther same site if you go down a lil further you will see for mpeg i think also
[12:08] <milamber> thnx again gnomefreak, like always u've helped me again ... :D
[12:08] <HappyFool> does anyone else get this mail-message from the cron daemon: 'mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/rmic.1.gz is a dangling symlink'
[12:09] <bimberi> Spde: does /usr/ftp exist?  if no you need to create it.  Then 'mv /home/<user> /usr/ftp' and edit /etc/passwd to change the users home directory
[12:09] <gnomefreak> glad i can help now i brb for first cup of coffee
[12:10] <Spde> bimberi: ok, thanks. what about the group? i want it to be the same as the username? is that default?
[12:10] <bimberi> Spde: usually, type 'sudo groups <username>' to check
[12:10] <Spde> bimberi: thanks for the help =)
[12:10] <bimberi> Spde: np :)
[12:13] <Spde> dir
[12:13] <Spde> ops =)
[12:13] <Matic`Makovec> wrong window :o

[12:15] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, GnarusLeo

[12:15] <ubotu> bluetooth is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
[12:20] <Ceni> hi all
[12:20] <toblerp> where can i get a list of changes for dapper?
[12:20] <toblerp> what are the new features?
[12:21] <Toma-> !dapper
[12:21] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[12:21] <bimberi> !flight5
[12:21] <ubotu> somebody said flight5 was http://www.ubuntu.com/testing
[12:22] <bimberi> toblerp: iirc, the flight5 page (linked from above) has a few details
[12:23] <gnomefreak> http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/flight5
[12:23] <gnomefreak> june 1st is release date
[12:23] <Ceni> can anybody tell me what kind of servers can I make with ubuntu
[12:23] <Ceni> ?
[12:23] <gnomefreak> Ceni: any kind you wish
[12:24] <Ceni> really
[12:24] <Ceni> wow
[12:24] <Ceni> but it looks so simple
[12:24] <gnomefreak> Ceni: can you be lil less general though?
[12:24] <Ceni> right now I'm just experimenting
[12:25] <Ceni> to see what can do and what not
[12:25] <Ceni> but it looks really great
[12:26] <neoxan> hi all
[12:26] <tonyyarusso> gnomefreak: I thought we were still awaiting the official announcement on that (although I acknowledge it is extremely likely from the discussions).
[12:26] <Ceni> ?
[12:26] <neoxan> i got a problem, i run dapper, but when i use amule, it says "kad: firewalled"
[12:26] <neoxan> what could be the problem?
[12:26] <neoxan> i dont have a router or something, just a dsl modem
[12:27] <tonyyarusso> neoxan: You might try asking in #ubuntu+1 for Dapper questions.
[12:28] <Toma-> neoxan: #ubuntu+1 and also, your firewalled. check if iptables is running or if you have a router...
[12:28] <Jimmey__> neoxan, I suggest installing Firestarter, and then making a few policy changes
[12:28] <Mnemic> !theme
[12:29] <Ceni> wich brainAdams
[12:29] <Ceni> the singer
[12:29] <Toma-> ...
[12:31] <LoCusF> !vmware
[12:31] <ubotu> LoCusF: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:32] <nickrud> boy this is quiet this time of night
[12:32] <b-or> !vmware
[12:32] <ubotu> b-or: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:33] <LoCusF> won't work
[12:33] <basti__> which kernel should I use with my pentium M cpu on my laptop?
[12:33] <Mnemic> 386 i think
[12:34] <basti__> doesnt pentium m support 686?
[12:34] <Mnemic> Not sure dude :/
[12:34] <ramvi> Heee =) My hd was full, so I couldn't log in. I went to shell and deleted a movie. When I booted back in, the volume thing asked for what mixer to use (and there's none to choose from) and when I try to open something that uses gksudo it tells me that the conversation with su failed. What should I do?
[12:35] <b-or> can i use ubuntu without a router? just a normal dsl modem?
[12:35] <Jimmey__> b-or, yes
[12:35] <wildsurge> lo folks
[12:35] <bimberi> !adsl
[12:35] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL PPPoE Connection? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE
[12:35] <anakron_> hello wildsurge
[12:36] <wildsurge> anyone good at making wine work?
[12:36] <b-or> Jimmey__: can i create a dailer? (how?)
[12:36] <wildsurge> i can't even get it to succesfully do the config
[12:36] <wildsurge> or even the version
[12:36] <Jimmey__> b-or, I think there's a program called PPPoEconf somewhere
[12:36] <Mnemic> !wine
[12:36] <tonyyarusso> Why does something like 'cd to <TAB><TAB>' not recognize the difference between directories and files?  I can't cd to a file anyway, so why is it shown as an option?
[12:36] <Jimmey__> I'll find it
[12:36] <wildsurge> !wine
[12:37] <Jimmey__> b-or, 'pppoeconf
[12:37] <Jimmey__> ' in the terminal
[12:37] <b-or> Jimmey__: tnx dude
[12:37] <wildsurge> i dun see a thing Mnemic
[12:37] <tool_> anyone can help me to anderstand why no images are displayed in "mailgraph" "couriergraph" and others RRD's scripts.. ?
[12:37] <b-or> Jimmey__: it wiil help me create a dailer?
[12:37] <kingspawn> tonyyarusso: technically, you can cd to a file if its a symlink, for example
[12:37] <Mnemic> !tell wildsurge about wine
[12:37] <Jimmey__> b-or, probably.
[12:38] <Mnemic> See the PM wildsurge  ?
[12:38] <wildsurge> aye
[12:38] <wildsurge> thx
[12:38] <b-or> Jimmey__ : thank you
[12:38] <Mnemic> yw
[12:38] <wildsurge> i'll try that
[12:38] <tonyyarusso> kingspawn: Oh, point.
[12:38] <Mnemic> im trying that too... haha
[12:40] <tonyyarusso> How to command-line ftp multiple files at once (ie DSCN*)?
[12:40] <basti__> !kernel
[12:40] <GnarusLeo> Hi, im trying to connect my d-link usb BLUETOOTH dongle using the ubuntu guide ... I have found the dongle and all, but when Im trying to search for my k700i phone, it cant find anyting ... ("sudo hidd --search" gives blank) ... any ideas?
[12:40] <kingspawn> tonyyarusso: i suggest you get ncftp, it probably supports that. the default app 'ftp' isn't much use.
[12:41] <LoCusF> GnarusLeo: try sudo hcitool inq
[12:41] <ramvi> Nm my last question. I screwed up. What should I write in usermod to go "back to default"? usermod -g DEFAULT-GROUP ramvi
[12:41] <tonyyarusso> kingspawn: I'll look into it.
[12:41] <GnarusLeo> LoCusF, that one gave me an andress yes, is that my phone?
[12:42] <GnarusLeo> LoCusF,    00:0F:DE:D0:84:E0       clock offset: 0x0011    class: 0x520204
[12:42] <LoCusF> GnarusLeo: well try sudo hcitool scan
[12:42] <GnarusLeo> LoCusF, swett, thanks :)
[12:42] <GnarusLeo> sweet even
[12:42] <LoCusF> np :)
[12:43] <LoCusF> GnarusLeo: if you want to connect to your phone, just: hcitool -i hci0 cc [phone's address] 
[12:43] <wildsurge> damn
[12:43] <flax^^> can i use VLC in ubuntu?
[12:43] <GnarusLeo> LoCusF, ok, Ill make a script for that .. thanks alot!
[12:44] <knubbe> flax^^: yes
[12:44] <wildsurge> it seems Automatix had already added that version of wine to my repository :(
[12:44] <ramvi> Please
[12:44] <GnarusLeo> LoCusF, how can I view files, and exchange files with it?
[12:44] <LoCusF> GnarusLeo: use p3nfs
[12:44] <flax^^> Knorrie, ok, i cant find the compiled code for ubuntu, just a bunch of other dists...
[12:44] <LoCusF> GnarusLeo: or if you use KDE then just install kbluetoothd and it'll do the job for you
[12:45] <basti__> Mnemic: it does support 686 ;)
[12:45] <flax^^> knubbe, , ok, i cant find the compiled code for ubuntu, just a bunch of other dists...
[12:45] <wildsurge> let's try the version of wine comes with ubuntu then
[12:45] <raptixx> question, using ubuntu LiveCD, 1600x1200, i goto change resolution, only 60hertz is in the drop down box in regards to refresh rates, a fix?
[12:45] <knubbe> flax^^: open your apt manager, enable universe and multiverse, and search for "vlc"
[12:46] <flax^^> ahh ok :)
[12:46] <Mnemic> Oh, ok basti__ ;p
[12:46] <raptixx> i can 75hz this resolution ^^
[12:46] <knubbe> flax^^: or open a terminal window and type "sudo apt-get install vlc"
[12:46] <LeonWP> hi
[12:46] <tonyyarusso> kingspawn: I can't seem to log in with that...
[12:46] <flax^^> knubbe, ok, think that s a bit easier :P
[12:47] <binu> leonWP,hi
[12:47] <wildsurge> that version of wine actually works :)
[12:47] <LeonWP> I'm looking for a windows-like gnome theme for my dad.. can somebody help me?
[12:47] <LoCusF> does anyone have any idea why my rt2500 driver works only if I have bluetooth enabled?
[12:47] <Toma-> anyone tinkered with xmms2 yet?
[12:48] <albacker> LeonWP, you want to make your dad think he's using windows ?!
[12:48] <LeonWP> No!
[12:48] <C-O-L-T> how to delete something in terminal?
[12:48] <knubbe> flax^^: or you can try "sudo apt-get install gnome-vlc" if you use gnome.
[12:48] <tonyyarusso> kingspawn: Never mind.
[12:48] <GnarusLeo> C-O-L-T, rm -rf <file>
[12:48] <albacker> C-O-L-T, hey wus up :)
[12:48] <knubbe> flax^^: ("sudo apt-get install kvlc" if you use kde)
[12:48] <C-O-L-T> albacker: hello, I have installed dapper and now configuring it
[12:49] <flax^^> knubbe, it worked just fine without the "gnome-"
[12:49] <flax^^> :)
[12:49] <LeonWP> albacker, it just should be very user-friendly to an windows-user, 'cause i want him to migrate to ubuntu..
[12:49] <Matic`Makovec> Toma-, xmms2 is out or what?
[12:49] <knubbe> flax^^: great
[12:49] <albacker> C-O-L-T, werent you satisfied bu breezy ?
[12:49] <powder> xmms2 ist death
[12:49] <tonyyarusso> kingspawn: Beautiful!  Thanks.
[12:49] <flax^^> how do i make vlc the snandard player?
[12:49] <C-O-L-T> albacker: breezy is ok but dapper is something revolutionary.
[12:49] <Toma-> Matic`Makovec: theres an ubuntu repo for the development version. trying to compile a frontend for it right now
[12:49] <chckens> Toma-: I had xmms2 running for a short time... didn't much like any of the frontends that were available. Went back to MPD instead :)
[12:49] <albacker> LeonWP, all themes do the same job, they just change colors, and forms [rectangular,..]  of some objects.. they dont change the way linux works !
[12:50] <albacker> C-O-L-T, nice.. i dont have it ! is it better !?
[12:50] <tonyyarusso> kingspawn: Except for the part where my ISP is lame and I don't have enough space on the server... :(
[12:50] <Matic`Makovec> Toma-, cool
[12:50] <wildsurge> has any of you actually got sound working properly in ubuntu?
[12:50] <Matic`Makovec> i hope it'll work
[12:51] <kronoz> wildsurge: yes
[12:51] <wildsurge> for example i can't even get teamspeak to run unless i turn off the welcome sound
[12:51] <Mekanzo1> question: how do I set xmms as a default mp3 player? everytime I double click a mp3 file totem comes up
[12:51] <C-O-L-T> albacker: it is flight release so it has some bugs but it is far more better. You have got a shutdown like in xp, everything starts up faster
[12:51] <bimberi> !tell Mekanzo1 about defaultapp
[12:51] <kronoz> wildsurge: you using ALSA or OSS ?
[12:51] <C-O-L-T> a lot of cool new stuff in it
[12:51] <wildsurge> lemme check
[12:51] <wildsurge> pretty sure it's a mix
[12:51] <Mekanzo1> thank u bomberi :)
[12:51] <albacker> C-O-L-T, i dont like XP !
[12:52] <albacker> C-O-L-T, my breezy is fast enough !
[12:52] <bimberi> Mekanzo1: yw :)
[12:52] <LeonWP> albacker, i mean things like these: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/download/553/       http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/download/583/
[12:52] <wildsurge> alsa and esd it seems
[12:52] <kronoz> linux shouldn' try to be like windows ...
[12:52] <flax^^> how do i make vlc the standard player?
[12:52] <C-O-L-T> albacker: believe me dapper is faster
[12:52] <kingspawn> tonyyarusso: hahah, that tends to be a problem :)
[12:52] <wildsurge> according to my multimedia systems selecter
[12:52] <kronoz> ok, for teamspeak try 'killall esd'
[12:52] <tonyyarusso> kingspawn: Ya.
[12:52] <albacker> LeonWP, im having a look.
[12:52] <LeonWP> :-)
[12:53] <wildsurge> kronoz okay, i can type that everytime
[12:53] <wildsurge> but that's not really a "fix" is it? :)
[12:53] <gnomefreak> there has beeen 84 added things but please use buntu+1 for dapper talk thankyou
[12:53] <gnomefreak> 82
[12:53] <Mnemic> Hey guys, i have updated the Kernel, and now at my Boot Screen i get 3 "version" of Ubuntu.. how to remove the old ones ?;p
[12:53] <kronoz> just type it in the terminal before you use teamspeak :p
[12:53] <albacker> LeonWP, you're from germany ? or austri ?
[12:53] <LeonWP> germany
[12:53] <Blippe> Mnemic, remove the old one in synaptic
[12:53] <wildsurge> it says no process killed
[12:54] <wildsurge> but that's prolly cuz i have turned off welcome soud
[12:54] <kingspawn> Mnemic: look at /boot/grub/menu.lst, but be careful
[12:54] <kingspawn> Mnemic: man grub first :)
[12:55] <wildsurge> heheheh
[12:55] <powder> if you remove the old kernel from synaptic it will automatically remove it's grub entry
[12:55] <wildsurge> i love this, it's actually installing starchamber under wine/linux
[12:55] <Mnemic> thanks guys :)
[12:55] <GnarusLeo> Damn, would really love to have bluetooth with amarok!
[12:56] <alapzaj> with wich command can i see my gnome version?
[12:56] <Toma-> GnarusLeo: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=20707
[12:56] <Toma-> ?
[12:56] <GnarusLeo> im using gnome :(
[12:57] <Toma-> :*(
[12:57] <kronoz> hehe, kde > gnome
[12:57] <Toma-> u can still run kde apps
[12:57] <Mabus06> Can somebody help me? I followed the wiki's instructions on how to mount windows shares automatically, and now I can't boot to windows. I get a blue screen that says I should check to make sure my disk hasn't failed. However I can still access it via ubuntu, so I don't think it's corrupted.
[12:57] <Celestianpower> How do I add more Virtual Desktops to Ubuntu?
[12:57] <GnarusLeo> hm ... but where can I get the blueamarok package?
[12:57] <gnomefreak> alapzaj: system>about gnome
[12:57] <bimberi> alapzaj: dpkg -l gnome-about
[12:57] <Mabus06> Celestianpower: do you mean workspaces?
[12:58] <Celestianpower> Mabus06: If that's what they're called in Ubuntu, then yes
[12:58] <kronoz> Mabus06: does it say about cfdisk checking for consistency?
[12:58] <Mabus06> Celestianpower: right click on the workspaces and go to preferences
[12:58] <Mabus06> kronoz: something like that
[12:58] <kronoz> Mabus06: also, #windows
[12:58] <Celestianpower> Mabus06: Woo hoo!
[12:58] <Celestianpower> :)
[12:59] <kronoz> Mabus06: ok then, you should be able to press enter or something and it will run a check on the disk and windows should start normally
[12:59] <Mabus06> kronoz: Nope... if it were like that I wouldn't be here. ;-)
[12:59] <Mabus06> Says restart the computer.
[01:00] <LeonWP> albacker, why?
[01:00] <kronoz> anyone tried dapper f5 in vmware?
[01:00] <Toma-> kronoz: /topic
[01:00] <albacker> LeonWP, why what ?
[01:01] <LeonWP> albacker, why did you ask if i am from germany :)
[01:01] <Mabus06> whois LeonWP
[01:01] <Mabus06> oops heh
[01:01] <Celestianpower> Why doesn't the link to inform that I added to the menu work?
[01:01] <LeonWP> :p
[01:01] <Celestianpower> The link goes to /usr/bin/inform
[01:02] <Mabus06> LeonWP: for starters you're in all kinds of -de chans ;-)
[01:02] <albacker> i saw the icons in the shot you gave me they were written in deutsch and you have joiunged #ubuntu-de
[01:02] <LeonWP> hehe
[01:02] <paolob> Hi guys! anyone could install ekiga on breezy with the packages on ekiga.org? I have problems with unmet dependencies?
[01:02] <LeonWP> yep
[01:02] <paolob> s/?//

[01:02] <GnarusLeo> (bluetooth
[01:03] <Jimmey__> paolob, search for the packages that it depends on in the Synaptic Package Manager

[01:05] <GnarusLeo> thanks
[01:06] <GnarusLeo> [Leo] , no package named that :(
[01:07] <[Leo] > GnarusLeo:  sorry, that is bin command
[01:07] <[Leo] > package name is gnome-bluetooth
[01:07] <GnarusLeo> yep, found "gnome-bluetooth"
[01:07] <GnarusLeo> ty :)
[01:08] <Celestianpower> Why doesn't the link to inform that I added to the menu work? The link goes to /usr/bin/inform and I installed Inform via Synaptic
[01:08] <albacker> LeonWP, did you install the theme ?
[01:09] <LeonWP> albacker, which one?
[01:10] <Frogzoo> Celestianpower: what do you get for 'which inform'
[01:10] <Semionsi> hi
[01:10] <Spde> how do i start a proftpd server?
[01:11] <Celestianpower> Frogzoo: /usr/bin/inform
[01:11] <albacker> LeonWP, the XP one ?!
[01:11] <albacker> LeonWP, didnt you find it ?!
[01:11] <Frogzoo> Celestianpower: well, try 'inform'
[01:11] <Spde> how do i get it online that is
[01:11] <alan|laptop> hi everyone !
[01:11] <LeonWP> albacker, er.. you mean the screenshots i showed you?
[01:11] <Kennie> Spde : d/l it from http://www.proftpd.org/ extract compile install?
[01:12] <albacker> LeonWP, didnt you get the theme ?!
[01:12] <LeonWP> hm.. no :)
[01:12] <alan|laptop> i've installed Dapper on my laptop, but it looks like my mbr won't launch grub. Does anyone know how i can repair this ?
[01:12] <Spde> Kennie: i just set all configs up but i cant find how to launch it.. it isnt in the /urs/local/libexec/proftpd
[01:12] <Frogzoo> !tell alan|laptop about grub
[01:12] <flax^^> whats dc client are avaliable for linux? and how do i get them?
[01:13] <Kennie> Spde : updatedb -> locate proftpd
[01:13] <LeonWP> albacker, no :)
[01:13] <Spde> Kennie: ?
[01:13] <alan|laptop> Frogzoo: hehe... looks like i'm not the only one asking for this... thanks for helping me rtfm ;)
[01:13] <albacker> LeonWP, you might need this : http://art.gnome.org/themes/gtk2/1058
[01:14] <Celestianpower> Frogzoo: http://paste.uni.cc/8754
[01:14] <shukhrat> i'm going upgarde breezy to dapper, in dapper will work apt-get ?
[01:14] <shukhrat> *updrade
[01:14] <LeonWP> albacker, let me try -- how to install= :o
[01:14] <gnomefreak> !upgrade
[01:14] <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.
[01:14] <albacker> LeonWP, just unpack the package and copy the whole directory [that you got after unpacing]  to ~/.themes
[01:14] <LeonWP> k
[01:16] <GnarusLeo> [Leo] , ok, the gnome-bluetooth-manager found my phone .. but I cant seem to do anything with it ... its just "there" ..
[01:16] <Frogzoo> Celestianpower: I think you don't want a link - you need to create a launcher, with the command something like, gnome-terminal /usr/bin/inform'
[01:16] <Spde> lol i cant find how to launch my proftpd server? anyone?
[01:16] <Frogzoo> Spde: -> man proftpd
[01:16] <deizi> hey, i was installing ubuntu, but forgot my login etc, what to do?
[01:17] <Frogzoo> Spde: also check in /etc/init.d/*proftpd
[01:17] <Frogzoo> deizi: boot in recovery mode & rest passwd
[01:17] <GnarusLeo> !bluetooth
[01:17] <ubotu> hmm... bluetooth is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
[01:17] <Steil> I'm having a problem with automatix, can anyone help me?
[01:17] <deizi> ok thks
[01:17] <gnomefreak> !automatix
[01:17] <ubotu> somebody said automatix was unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[01:18] <Celestianpower> Frogzoo: Still nothing
[01:18] <Steil> sweet
[01:18] <Celestianpower> Frogzoo: From when I used it in Windows, the "inform" command compiled the code
[01:19] <GnarusLeo> [Leo] , are you still there?
[01:19] <flax^^> the XMMS doestn't show :    (swedish chars) anyway to enable them?
[01:19] <GnarusLeo> Anyone using the gnome-bluetooth-manager? It found my cell phone, but I cant do anything to it ... its just .. there
[01:20] <Frogzoo> Celestianpower: this is a text based app, yes?
[01:20] <painkiler> hey ugys
[01:20] <Celestianpower> Frogzoo: Yes
[01:20] <painkiler> how do i format an externaly mounted drive?
[01:20] <Celestianpower> But it opens in a gui
[01:20] <painkiler> in fat32
[01:20] <Dewi> hmm
[01:20] <GnarusLeo> Anyone know how I can browse and send files to my SE K700i phone? I have connected to it (ie: remote works great) ...
[01:21] <Frogzoo> so the pastebin was from the gui?
[01:21] <Dewi> when I try to change my password to something completely different, the About Me applet claims the "old and new passwords are too similar"
[01:21] <Celestianpower> Frogzoo: The pastebin was from typing inform
[01:21] <Celestianpower> Hang on
[01:21] <Celestianpower> I think I might kniow the problem
[01:21] <Frogzoo> cool
[01:21] <painkiler> I just need to format my extrnal hdd from ext3 to fat32... how would I go about doing that?
[01:22] <Frogzoo> painkiler: mkfs.fat32
[01:22] <Frogzoo> *mkfs.vfat*
[01:22] <flax^^> the XMMS doestn't show :    (swedish chars) anyway to enable them?
[01:22] <deizi> root@ubuntu?
[01:23] <kingspawn> deizi: twice
[01:24] <Fjodor> Anyone know who to talk to, to get a patch for glibc included?
[01:25] <deizi> twice what?
[01:25] <HappyFool> Fjodor: perhaps report a bug on launchpad.net ? otherwise ask on #ubuntu-devel
[01:25] <dli__> how to prevent installing kernel-image in dist-upgrade
[01:25] <gnomefreak> Fjodor: you can try #ubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-motu
[01:26] <Fjodor> motu?
[01:26] <Fjodor> But thanks, I'll try -devel
[01:26] <fiveiron> time to try out breezy
[01:26] <gnomefreak> Fjodor: use #ubuntu-devel   motu is for universe and multiverse
[01:26] <painkiler> so again. How do i format my extrnal hdd into fat32?
[01:26] <Hoxzer> God
[01:26] <Fjodor> Ah. Thanks
[01:26] <Hoxzer> I hate this
[01:26] <Frogzoo> dli__: your old kernel will still be available even with the new kernel installed
[01:26] <Hoxzer> serious problems
[01:26] <gnomefreak> dli__: you cant the kernel defines the version of ubuntu you are running
[01:26] <fiveiron> painkiler: is the device detected correctly?
[01:27] <painkiler> what would the basic command look like
[01:27] <painkiler> yeah
[01:27] <painkiler> its mounted
[01:27] <fiveiron> oh
[01:27] <fiveiron> well unmount it
[01:27] <fiveiron> :P
[01:27] <HappyFool> heh
[01:27] <painkiler> ok
[01:27] <dli__> gnomefreak, can I build my own kernel ?
[01:27] <fiveiron> are you wanting to save any data on it?
[01:27] <painkiler> no
[01:27] <fiveiron> k
[01:27] <painkiler> i just want to format it
[01:27] <gnomefreak> dli__: if you wish to
[01:27] <Frogzoo> dli__: either build it from scratch, or install the kernel source package
[01:28] <dli__> Frogzoo, I want to build my own kernel, no point in downloading the kernel -image :(
[01:28] <dli__> Frogzoo, no, I wget from kernel.org
[01:28] <painkiler> ok i umounted it
[01:28] <gnomefreak> dli__: but dist-upgrade with out the kernel image will screw up things severly
[01:28] <painkiler> what do i do now...
[01:28] <fiveiron> hmm  i'm just now reinstalling so i dont have access to the system... its a command like mkvfatfs
[01:29] <dli__> gnomefreak, how? I will remove all ubuntu kernel-images when running my custom kernel
[01:29] <Frogzoo> dli__: yar, I don't see any easy was to dist-upgrade without dling the new kernel
[01:29] <painkiler> i think i did it
[01:29] <HappyFool> mkfs.vfat
[01:29] <painkiler> mkfs.vfat
[01:29] <fiveiron> yes
[01:29] <fiveiron> mkfs.vfat /dev/hdx
[01:29] <painkiler> i just did mkfs.vfat /dev/sdc1
[01:29] <fiveiron> there ya go
[01:29] <painkiler> sweet
[01:29] <dli__> Frogzoo, remove kernel-images :)
[01:29] <martin> Hi guys. If I were to install XFCE or BlackBox, will they automatically replace Gnome as the standard X interface?
[01:29] <fiveiron> painkiler: then edit your fstab and make sure you're mounting it as vfat
[01:29] <McQuaid> anyone know how to remove 'lock version' status via apt and NOT synaptic?
[01:29] <fiveiron> then mount -a and you're good to go
[01:29] <alan|laptop> Frogzoo: thanks, i try again
[01:29] <painkiler> ok
[01:30] <gnomefreak> dli__: if you changed your sources to point towards a ubuntu version without installing the kernel its going to install new packages that may not run with old kernel
[01:30] <dli__> martii, you can select xfce in the gdm menu
[01:30] <McQuaid> dist-upgrade puked on me cause of some locked files i had
[01:30] <fiveiron> painkiler: also
[01:30] <deizi> root@ubuntu??
[01:30] <martin> How do I do that?
[01:30] <McQuaid> would like to unlock em and try and continue but can't launch synaptic
[01:30] <fiveiron> painkiler: you need to set up some options  in the fstab so anyone can access that drive on your system
[01:30] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell McQuaid about apt
[01:30] <dli__> gnomefreak, I suppose they simply check for /usr/src/linux
[01:31] <painkiler> sweet
[01:31] <painkiler> thanx guy
[01:31] <painkiler> *guys
[01:31] <McQuaid> lasdkjf;klasdjfkljfsd'klasdj
[01:31] <dli__> gnomefreak, old box with 192MB ram, got to use custom kernel :(
[01:31] <Remmy> Hi, something changes my firewall rules about five minutes after setting up my network connection
[01:31] <Remmy> causing all traffic to stall
[01:31] <ompaul> McQuaid, can we help you?
[01:32] <gnomefreak> dli__: yes but you installed a kernel first
[01:32] <painkiler> what is a good linux book to expand my knowlege?
[01:32] <fiveiron> painkiler: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions?action=show&redirect=AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[01:32] <McQuaid> look plz don't give me that tell mcquaid about foo stuff right now
[01:32] <Frogzoo> dli__: no, there's various packages - linux-image-*
[01:32] <Remmy> It's driving me crazy, but I don't know what process is responsible for it
[01:32] <fiveiron> painkiler: read the part about halfway down with the options for fstab
[01:32] <McQuaid> if you know how to unlock files via apt it would be much appreciated
[01:32] <dli__> Frogzoo, nothing is better than tailor made
[01:32] <kingspawn> painkiler: i suggest you just use the internet. it teachs you all you need to know, and there's google. :)
[01:32] <painkiler> oh dude, yeah i figured it out
[01:32] <fiveiron> do what it says on "Accessible by everyone"
[01:32] <painkiler> thanx a heap
[01:32] <gnomefreak> McQuaid: if you read teh docs on apt you might find it
[01:32] <fiveiron> k
[01:32] <funkyHat> Anyone know a decent alternative to audacity (ardour isn't really an option...)
[01:33] <McQuaid> ompaul, i locked some files via synaptic prior to dist-upgrade, it totally puked, i'd like to unlock those files and retry
[01:33] <ompaul> McQuaid, are you looking for apt-get -x foo.deb?
[01:33] <dli__> funkyHat, audacity is the easiest for me
[01:33] <ompaul> McQuaid, ahh your not
[01:33] <Remmy> Anyone has any ideas about that?
[01:33] <funkyHat> dli__, the problem isn't that audacity is hard, it's that it won't work :(
[01:33] <McQuaid> ompaul, i need to know either how to unlock files via apt, or which file apt looks to for 'lock version' status and edit/remove it
[01:33] <fiveiron> funkyHat: what wont work?
[01:34] <GTX> are there any video capturing tools
[01:34] <GTX> for ubuntu?
[01:34] <GTX> so I can record a video of my desktop
[01:34] <funkyHat> fiveiron, audacity, but I'm not asking for help to get it working, I'm in the wrong channel for that, I'm asking for alternatives (other than ardour)
[01:34] <Frogzoo> Remmy: u running firestarter?
[01:34] <ikaros> can i install the opera package for breezy badger on dapper drake?
[01:34] <dli__> funkyHat, if audacity won't, the chance is others are not going any further
[01:34] <mathewf> Does anybody know how to install wpasupplicant_0.3.8-1_i386.deb from a USB Flash key as I do not have a internet connection?
[01:34] <Remmy> Frogzoo: I uninstalled it earlier today, flushed all rules, but it still happens
[01:34] <ompaul> McQuaid, do you mean you pinned versions?
[01:35] <tonyyarusso> mathewf: Do you already have it mounted and such, and just need to know how to install a downloaded .deb in general?
[01:36] <mathewf> TONNYYARUSSO: Yes
[01:36] <Remmy> I think I'd like to see what command or user invokes the iptables command
[01:36] <tonyyarusso> !deb
[01:36] <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)
[01:36] <MasterC> how do I change the default shell in ubuntu?
[01:36] <GTX> are there any video capturing tools for ubuntu
[01:36] <dli__> mathewf, find a box (not upgraded for long), and apt-get update, apt-get install wpasupplicant, then ,cp /var/cache/apt/archives/*.dev to usb
[01:37] <idefix> User-agent: EmailCollector
[01:37] <idefix> Disallow: /
[01:37] <idefix> if I have that in my robot.txt file
[01:37] <idefix> will everything go right?
[01:37] <mathewf> TONY: I will try this now. Thanks
[01:37] <Hoxzer> is it possible to build scripts for Xchat?
[01:37] <idefix> I mean, google doesn't seem to pick my site up
[01:37] <__filip_> What clients are you recommend for direct connect, not dcpp because it rehash all file with .
[01:38] <ompaul> Hoxzer, yes you need to insult the distruction manual though
[01:38] <idefix> anyone? any knowers of robot.txt files here?
[01:38] <gnomefreak> s/insult/consult
[01:38] <dli__> mathewf, easier way, burn ubuntu dvds :)
[01:39] <mathewf> TONYYYARUSSO: Can I know how to specify the USB device/directory?
[01:39] <GnarusLeo> Ok, I have connected to browsing my files .. but where do I put games/java programs and so on? cant find a proper place to upload them?
[01:39] <ompaul> gnomefreak, maybe I meant that :-), Hoxzer http://xchat.org/docs/ has lots of info on it
[01:39] <gnomefreak> lol
[01:39] <tonyyarusso> mathewf: It's probably mounted in /media somewhere - check for it there.
[01:39] <gnomefreak> i reread it didnt see distruction :(
[01:40] <mathewf> TONNYYARUSSO> I will try it now. Thanks
[01:40] <deizi> login problems...
[01:40] <sikor_sxe> is it possible to install from livecds?
[01:40] <kingspawn> deizi: do you have an actual question?
[01:40] <gnomefreak> sikor_sxe: not on breezy
[01:40] <Skrot> How's S-ATA controller support on linux these days?
[01:40] <sikor_sxe> :(
[01:40] <deizi> yes. what to do after root@ubuntu:
[01:40] <gnomefreak> sikor_sxe: dapper will have it when it is  released
[01:41] <gnomefreak> deizi: did you change password yet?
[01:41] <Pitersburgs> Skrot: good
[01:41] <Pitersburgs> Skrot: which chipset you have in mind?
[01:41] <steven_> hello
[01:42] <steven_> is anyone here??
[01:42] <Frogzoo> possibly
[01:42] <Skrot> Pitersburgs: Silicon Image on a GigaByte GA-K8NXP-9 motherboard
[01:42] <steven_> hi~
[01:42] <Pitersburgs> hmmm
[01:42] <Pitersburgs> Skrot: should be supported, afaik
[01:43] <deizi> how to do it?
[01:43] <Skrot> Pitersburgs: Okay. Does it work like IDE-discs? E.g no extra configureation?
[01:43] <Celestianpower> !inform
[01:43] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Celestianpower
[01:43] <Celestianpower> How do I add info to ubotu?
[01:43] <idefix> what I meant to ask was, can User-agent: EmailCollector Disallow: /
[01:43] <idefix>  block google from finding your site?
[01:44] <steven_> it's my first time to used ubuntu
[01:44] <GnarusLeo> Ok, I have connected to browsing my files .. but where do I put games/java programs and so on? cant find a proper place to upload them? Im trying to find where to upload the amarok bluetooth remote script
[01:44] <idefix> congratulations steven_
[01:44] <Pitersburgs> Skrot: if chipset is supproted, then driver is in kernel, if driver is in kernel, then simply install newest Ubuntu or another Linux distro and it will autodetect it
[01:44] <Skrot> cool =)
[01:44] <Pitersburgs> it will configure those disks for you
[01:44] <GTX> are there any video capturing tools for ubuntu
[01:44] <Pitersburgs> GTX: try Kino
[01:44] <Celestianpower> !tell Celestianpower about ubotu
[01:45] <steven_> how to used the wireless network

[01:46] <Frogzoo> madgik85: ext3 without question
[01:46] <Pitersburgs> madgik85: depends on what do you want to use it for
[01:46] <dli__> madgik85, no simple answer
[01:46] <Celestianpower> ubotu inform is Remember, when installing and using Inform, you need a compiler, a library and an interpreter. See http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/devel/inform
[01:46] <ubotu> Celestianpower: okay
[01:46] <Celestianpower> !inform
[01:46] <ubotu> [inform]  Remember, when installing and using Inform, you need a compiler, a library and an interpreter. See http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/devel/inform
[01:46] <madgik85> Pitersburgs, its just for a laptop, normal home use
[01:46] <neo911> hi! what's do i have to install so i can play streaming audio like for listening to internet radio stations? thanks
[01:46] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Is that okay?
[01:46] <GTX> Pitersburgs, isnt that just an editor from what I can see?
[01:47] <Pitersburgs> madgik85: ext3 certainly
[01:47] <Pitersburgs> GTX: it has some capture features too
[01:47] <toblerp> ubuntu just rules on my thinkpad
[01:47] <toblerp> :)
[01:47] <Pitersburgs> GTX: question is what do you want to capture?
[01:47] <GTX> Pitersburgs, the new XGL thing
[01:47] <madgik85> Pitersburgs, dli__ and Frogzoo, thank you for your help :)
[01:47] <GTX> on my desktop
[01:47] <GTX> to show friends
[01:47] <Pitersburgs> :)
[01:47] <Frogzoo> madgik85: np
[01:48] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: its in multiverse why would you need a compiler?
[01:48] <Pitersburgs> GTX: I don't know if you can capture that, but you should try that Ogg Theora capture thingy
[01:48] <toblerp> which extra repositories would you recommend me for multimedia software?
[01:48] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Well, you need sopmthing to compile the story files, something to play them and a library so that commands will work
[01:48] <Pitersburgs> GTX: try Istanbul
[01:48] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell toblerp about restricted
[01:49] <GTX> Pitersburgs, I have
[01:49] <GTX> its slow
[01:49] <GTX> and crahses
[01:49] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: and the site that you have there doesnt really work either
[01:49] <Pitersburgs> GTX: I don't know another ones
[01:49] <Pitersburgs> :(
[01:49] <martin> If I want to install XFCE, do I need to remove the GNOME packages first?
[01:49] <Frogzoo> martin: no
[01:49] <martin> Ok, thx
[01:50] <martin> So, a sudo apt-get install xfce4 should do the trick?
[01:50] <Mnemic> Hey guys.. how can i see other PCs in a LAN ? :P
[01:50] <neo911> what's do i have to install so i can play streaming audio like for listening to internet radio stations? thanks
[01:50] <toblerp> martin: try xubuntu :)
[01:50] <martin> ^^
[01:50] <Celestianpower> !tell Celestianpower about ubotu
[01:50] <Frogzoo> !tell martin about xfce
[01:50] <LogicalDash> When I log on, as the "I'm loading these GNOME components" thingy displays, it says it's loaded the Metacity Window Manager and then hangs for like a minute before loading the rest of the way and letting me use the desktop.
[01:51] <Mnemic> !samba
[01:51] <ubotu> methinks samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[01:51] <gnomefreak> Celestianpower: keep in mind playing with bot can get you banned
[01:51] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Playing with the bot?
[01:51] <neo911> hello where can i get a copy of horny hedgehog? thanks
[01:51] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: I'm tryignt o be helpful
[01:52] <Celestianpower> *trying to be helpful
[01:52] <gnomefreak> im just warning you
[01:52] <Celestianpower> gnomefreak: Oh
[01:52] <GTX> what media players will play an .ogg file?
[01:53] <GnarusLeo> sweet, go it working :)
[01:53] <katz0r> GTX: beep-media-player xmms totem
[01:53] <Malle> hey when you have the live cd , do you just unpack it then press the .exe file ?
[01:54] <toblerp> which media player do you use?
[01:54] <GTX> katz0r, .ogg files with video
[01:54] <toblerp> bmp?
[01:54] <katz0r> ahh
[01:54] <katz0r> i think totem does them, and xine and mplayer for sure
[01:56] <_jason> Malle: you boot with it if you want to actually use ubuntu.  I believe the .exe on the livecd is for installing open source windows apps on windows
[01:56] <katz0r> neo911: its called the hoary hedgehog and u can get it here http://releases.ubuntu.com/hoary/
[01:57] <neo911> cool thanks...
[01:57] <katz0r> np
[01:57] <Frogzoo> neo911: hoary is a release old - you'd be better with breezy
[01:58] <gnomefreak> neo911: just a quick question why not use breezy instead
[01:58] <_jason> Malle: ubuntu is linux, yes.  It is an operating system.  So you don't run it inside windows.  You run it instead of windows.  To do that you usually just put the livecd in your drive and reboot.  If your computer does not boot ubuntu then you will have to go into your bios and set it to boot from the cd
[01:58] <idefix> how do you upload a picture to your gaim account?
[01:58] <Celestianpower> ubotu no, inform is Remember, when using Inform, you need a compiler, a library and an interpreter (like xzip). See http://www.inform-fiction.org/software/index.html for more details
[01:58] <ubotu> okay, Celestianpower
[01:58] <neo911> yea i think ill use the latest release instead of horny h... thanks!
[01:58] <Malle> but i dont have a cd .. _jason
[01:59] <chckens> idefix: You mean as the buddy icon/display picture that your contacts see?
[01:59] <idefix> yes!
[01:59] <gnomefreak> Malle: burn the live cd iso to disk before you can use it
[01:59] <Frogzoo> Celestianpower: ubotu is a bot, btw - it's not a very good conversationalist, despite appearances
[01:59] <deizi> k, what to do after successfully(?) logged in??
[01:59] <Celestianpower> Frogzoo: Yes ;)
[01:59] <gnomefreak> Frogzoo: he was adding something
[01:59] <_jason> ubotu: tell Malle about iso
[01:59] <cocozz> Hi, is it possible to contact the Ubuntu's package maintainers ?
[01:59] <idefix> chckens, do you know how to?
[01:59] <Malle> gnomefreak , all files or some some certain

[02:00] <chckens> idefix: You go to Tools->Accounts on the buddy list, choose the account whose icon you want to set and click Modify
[02:00] <gnomefreak> should be around 680mb
[02:00] <Malle> ye
[02:00] <gnomefreak> Malle: burn that to cd using burner of your choice but make sure of a few things first
[02:00] <NewUSER> I simply cant connect to the net wit ubuntu. Using a winmodem, and got no clue on how to setup the dam thing

[02:01] <gnomefreak> make sure the md5sum is right make sure you burn it as an iso image and make sure you burn it at slowest speed you can :)
[02:01] <idefix> wait
[02:01] <chckens> idefix: on the Buddy List window, not in the preferences
[02:02] <NewUSER> How do i visit the linmodems site if i cant access the net

[02:08] <gnomefreak> yes
[02:08] <Malle> well my iso recorder dosent assosiate with all .iso
[02:08] <_jason> chuckyp: he's trying to burn the livecd iso on windows.  He downloaded ISO recorder according to the wiki.  But his iso's are not associated to the program so he can't burn
[02:08] <chuckyp> _jason, just open the iso from within the isorecorder program
[02:09] <_jason> chuckyp: he says it does not open
[02:09] <chuckyp> Malle, well do you have any other burning applications?  such as nero etc..?
[02:09] <gnomefreak> use nero its easy
[02:09] <gnomefreak> !iso
[02:09] <ubotu> rumour has it, iso is download Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ and for help burning the CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[02:09] <Malle> nope ChaKy
[02:09] <Malle> chuckyp
[02:09] <ompaul> Malle, if you right click on the iso icon you will have a "write to disk" option that works for me
[02:09] <chuckyp> ompaul, xp supports burning iso's?  I think it will just burn the iso file to the cd and not extract it.
[02:10] <DjDarkman> how can i delete my hda6 partition if my root partition is hda7 and i can`t unmount it?!!!
[02:10] <Malle> ompaul , i dont i have "play with VLC" :(
[02:10] <chuckyp> Malle, how did you install isorecorder?
[02:10] <Malle> normal
[02:10] <Malle> like it should be installed
[02:10] <ompaul> Malle, are you actually on XP at this  time?
[02:10] <Malle> yes
[02:11] <chuckyp> Malle, okay well right click on the iso and click copy to cd using isorecorder wizard
[02:11] <chuckyp> Malle, #
[02:11] <chuckyp> Locate the ISO file, right-click the file name, and then click Copy image to CD to open the ISO Recorder Wizard.

[02:12] <iveqy> hi, When I boot up ubuntu in textmode the first terminal (tty1) is in utf8 but the rest (tt2, tty3 etc) is in iso-8859, how can I change them to also be in utf8?
[02:12] <gopi> I am struggling for the past 2 days !!!  I installed xawtv and Iam getting video alone but no audio .... This problem I had previously also but it got rectified automatically after a day or two... And since I re installed Ubuntu, I had to install xawtv also again..... So can anyone please help me?
[02:12] <ompaul> Malle, so this URL is how you escape with a burned CD http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm
[02:12] <chuckyp> Malle, you could also right click on your burner drive if that doesn't work and select copy image to cd.
[02:13] <chuckyp> gopi, what is xawtv a program for viewing off of a tv card?
[02:13] <gopi> chukyp: yes
[02:13] <DjDarkman> can someone help me with partitioning?
[02:13] <gopi> chuckyp: yes
[02:13] <chuckyp> gopi, did you install the codecs for mpeg etc?
[02:13] <gopi> chuckyp: no I didnt
[02:13] <chuckyp> DjDarkman, you cn try chroot'ng to another linux install then removing the one you want if thats what you are after.
[02:14] <gopi> chuckyp: Shall I try that ?
[02:14] <chuckyp> !tell gopi about restricted
[02:14] <chuckyp> gopi, yeah try that sounds like the problem.
[02:14] <coz> hello all
[02:14] <ompaul> DjDarkman, put the contents of mount and /etc/fstab into paste.ubuntu-nl.org so it can be reviewed?
[02:14] <coz>  have 7 floppies detected in dapper
[02:14] <coz> I had the file location to mark the other 6 off so they didn't show but forgot location
[02:15] <chuckyp> Malle, did you get anywhere?
[02:15] <lucaas> where do i put a pcf font to install it?
[02:15] <gnomefreak> !fonts
[02:15] <ubotu> I guess fonts is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FontInstallHowto
[02:15] <lucaas> ty GNAM
[02:15] <lucaas> gnomefreak,
[02:15] <maenty> what is the best firewall program for linux/KDE?
[02:15] <maenty> I have tried Firestarter, which not only blocked all traffic but also the "add rule" option was gray so I can't add any rules
[02:15] <gnomefreak> yw
[02:15] <ompaul> coz, can you give more detail that does not make sense to me - you had 7 floppy images or something else?
[02:15] <chuckyp> !tell maenty about firewall
[02:16] <GnarusLeo> wow! Anyone notices that the amarok bluetooth script has a HUGE CPU leackage? :P
[02:16] <gopi> chuckyp: But it looks like in that page... w32 codecs ?
[02:16] <coz> ompaul in " places  computer, it shows 7 floppy drives
[02:16] <maenty> And I also tried KMyFirewall but it's a mess and I can't find a place where I could just simply add some rules like blocking certain IP-addresses / ports
[02:16] <gopi> chuckyp: Is that ok ?
[02:16] <chuckyp> gopi, i'm not really sure I don't really use them.
[02:17] <ompaul> coz, live or install?
[02:17] <gopi> chuckyp: No but my doubt is w32 codecs are for Windows OS right? But will they suit for Ubuntu ? !
[02:17] <chuckyp> gopi, What type of tv card do you have does it capture mpeg i.e. does it have an mpeg encoder or does it capture rtjpeg.
[02:17] <maenty> chuckyp: thanks, but firestarter didn't work
[02:17] <coz> oompaul this is clean install dapper
[02:17] <gopi> chuckyp: it captures mpeg
[02:17] <coz> ompaul and not unusual many have the same problem with dapper
[02:17] <maenty> chuckyp: I had to uninstall whole firestarter to get internet working again
[02:17] <ompaul> coz, please take your dapper conversation to the channel #ubuntu+1 it is not for here thanks :)
[02:17] <gopi> chuckyp: mine is Pinnacle PCTV Pro
[02:18] <chuckyp> gopi, no w32codecs is a package for linux to add support for various windows codecs.  here I have something you can try though to make sure its not xawtv
[02:18] <ompaul> coz, that is where the dapper people are
[02:18] <coz> ompaul this is the UBUNTU channel and the last time i looked dapper was UBUNTU
[02:18] <_jason> !dapper
[02:18] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[02:18] <chuckyp> gopi, do you know which /dev your capture card is getting used as?  or what drvers you are using?
[02:18] <gopi> chuckyp: bttv driver is needed but bttv I think was installed by default in Ubunti installation....
[02:18] <gnomefreak> coz: dapper is not released yet and is not supported in this channel please use #ubuntu+1
[02:18] <_jason> coz: helps keep things organized is all coz
[02:18] <gopi> chuckyp: I think bttv drivers...
[02:19] <chuckyp> gopi, okay well try something like cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg
[02:19] <chuckyp> gopi, then after a few seconds ctrl+c it.
[02:19] <chuckyp> gopi, and see if you can play the mpeg file if you have sound and video or whatever.
[02:19] <chuckyp> gopi, sry test.mpeg
[02:19] <marlun> When conntecting to FTP Server using "Connect to Server..." in nautilus, is it always very slow?

[02:27] <neo911> how do u guys reply with the user name so quickly? i try to dbl click the user name but it doesnt work
[02:27] <gnomefreak> deizi: what do you mean get started after login? what are you trying to do?
[02:27] <bon> how do you start ksim
[02:28] <gnomefreak> neo911: use tab
[02:28] <_jason> neo911: type _j and then press <tab>
[02:28] <gnomefreak> or whatever the name starts with
[02:28] <deizi> i was installing it now i need advice...
[02:28] <mwe> ixiion: you probably need to install the linux-headers package
[02:28] <gnomefreak> deizi: on what?
[02:28] <neo911> ic ic~
[02:28] <gopi> chuckyp: Like first I installed xawtv, and then TV time, and then played with those codecs, and still it didnt play audio....... and next day I was surprised to see it played audio after I started xawtv and changed a channel !
[02:28] <deizi> commands etc...
[02:28] <ixiion> mwe: ihave both headers and sources
[02:28] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell deizi about commands
[02:29] <ixiion> but tihs folder are the sources
[02:29] <neo911> wait ill just work on my w32codecs and mplayer
[02:29] <mwe> ixiion: the ubunut package linux-headers is installed?
[02:29] <ixiion> mwe: yes
[02:29] <ixiion> uninstalling ?
[02:29] <chuckyp> gopi, yeah I would maybe install the codecs listed on the page the gstreamer etc... You don't really need to instlalt he dvd stuff unless you want it.
[02:30] <bon> how do you start ksim?
[02:30] <neo911> i only got 500MB left in h/d waaa!
[02:30] <_jason> deizi: were you asking for the specific command to reset your password?
[02:30] <deizi> done that
[02:30] <_jason> ok
[02:30] <chuckyp> gopi, then restart and give her a try.  Other than that I would just check the cable make sure its comming from the out on the tv card to the line in on the sound card.  And not the mic or something goofy.
[02:30] <mwe> ixiion: ok. then I'm not sure
[02:31] <bon> how do you start ksim?
[02:31] <ixiion> mwe: i have installed a kubuntu dapper flight 4 and updated afer the first login all packeges so im up to date now
[02:31] <neo911> gnomefreak, _jason i searched my repo but it didnt see w32codecs... where could i find it? im using synaptic btw
[02:31] <_jason> neo911: check your private messages from ubotu
[02:31] <gopi> chuckyp: yeah ok...
[02:32] <bon> HELP  how do you start ksim
[02:32] <neo911> oh!
[02:32] <ixiion> mwe and of course i installes all the stuff that is needed to compile the kernel
[02:32] <_jason> ubotu: tell neo911 about w32codecs
[02:32] <chuckyp> gopi, other than that thats all i can think of.  I know once you get the proper codec for mpeg or whatever your card captures in you should be able to play it in anything.
[02:32] <chuckyp> bon, what is ksim
[02:32] <ajnewbold> any idea why my external USB hard drive is mounting as a "read-only" disk?
[02:32] <GTX> how can I stop ctrl + alt + arrow key from making my X server to restart, i keep touching it by mistake
[02:32] <ixiion> a SCIM fronted
[02:32] <halpo> hey what was the mkg-kernel
[02:32] <chuckyp> bon, try typing ksim in a terminal
[02:33] <chuckyp> bon, or hit alt+f2 and type in ksim
[02:33] <mwe> ixiion: the file should be provided by the linux-kernel-headers package. it sounds broken to me
[02:33] <bon> chuck: system monitor for kde
[02:33] <chuckyp> GTX, ctrl+alt+arrow shoudl switch desktops
[02:33] <tapasko> hi, how I send files with gnome-bluetooth?
[02:33] <bon> i try ksim in temmail
[02:33] <chuckyp> tell tapasko about bluetooth
[02:33] <GTX> chuckyp, it restarts X.
[02:33] <ixiion> mwe yeah but i woulnder that none else i complainug about a broken kernel package
[02:34] <tapasko> chuckyp, huh?
[02:34] <_jason> halpo: ? you mean make-kpkg? (it comes in kernel-package)
[02:34] <chuckyp> GTX, you mean ctrl+alt+backspace
[02:34] <chuckyp> !tell tapasko about bluetooth
[02:34] <ixiion> s/wounlnder /wounder
[02:34] <GTX> yes
[02:34] <bon> chuyp i try ksim in temmail
[02:34] <GTX> yeah chuckyp sorry
[02:34] <chuckyp> tapasko, there ya go read the message from the bot.
[02:34] <tapasko> aaa, i try
[02:34] <chuckyp> GTX, hrm...
[02:34] <bon> chuckyp its donign my nut in
[02:34] <tapasko> !tell tapasko about bluetooth
[02:35] <tapasko> damn im n00b
[02:35] <GnarusLeo> tapasko, use kdebluetooth .. makes everything easier
[02:35] <_jason> halpo: or did you mean something else that I don't know about? :)
[02:35] <gopi> chuckyp: I think the problem mostly is with codec... because since mine being a AMD64 system ...... and in that page also its specified under "The Codecs" section that, Some people on AMD64 solve this problem by installing a 32-bit version of the operating system inside a chroot
[02:35] <halpo> i wanna compile own kernel
[02:35] <halpo> there was program that did it for me
[02:35] <_jason> halpo: the one I just told you
[02:35] <chuckyp> GTX, http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2003-12/msg00126.html
[02:35] <_jason> !kernelcompile
[02:35] <ubotu> You will probably find info about this at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCompileHowto
[02:36] <gopi> chuckyp: So maybe it should help me fortunately
[02:36] <chuckyp> gopi, ahh yeah that might be an issue but the w32codecs should be needed for it to work.  Just the gstreamer and ffmpeg stuff.
[02:36] <chuckyp> gopi, sorryr w32codecs should NOT be needed I can't type today.
[02:37] <ixiion> whats better on gstreamer then xine engine ?
[02:37] <Arnald> -1 for dapper delay ;)
[02:37] <neo911> _jason, i tried the one in the link, it's a .deb package and installation is through  dpkg instead of synpatic, i hope it oesnt mess up my OS install... :-|
[02:37] <_jason> neo911: it's fine
[02:37] <gopi> chuckyp: oh i see.... But previously I didnt install gstreamer(to my knowledge) but it played !
[02:38] <_jason> neo911: it just copies some .dll files to /usr/lib/win32/
[02:38] <chuckyp> gopi, hrm.. well you need someway of instlaling codecs so that your system properly handles mpeg
[02:38] <DrMO> I've just bought an agp 8x card (GF5200) nothing special. how can I tell if linus has picked up the cards 3d abilities?
[02:38] <DrMO> linux*
[02:39] <gopi> chuckyp: ok let me try and see... may god wish me :)
[02:39] <neo911> _jason,  win32? why is it win32, im using ubuntu 5.10!?!?!?
[02:40] <_jason> neo911: to play things like .wmv
[02:40] <LeonWP> *LOL*
[02:40] <DrMO> neo911: the win32 dir contains the windows dlls
[02:40] <bon> ksim?
[02:40] <zmo1138> DrMO: glxinfo |grep -i 'direct rendering'
[02:40] <neo911> DrMO i know but im using ubuntu?!?!? sorry for my ignorance but...
[02:40] <ompaul> Arnald, +1 as it allows more people (over 2billion get better codepage support)
[02:41] <halpo> Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "3.4.5", while you are trying to use "/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.0.2". This configuration is not supported and VMware
[02:41] <cameron> A week or 2 ago, I wrote a bug on launchpad that opengl is unusably flickery on PowerPC, it was dismissed but still an issue in flight 5, what do I do?
[02:41] <neo911> so is w32codecs for use in ubuntu or windows?
[02:41] <Skrot> neo911: Well, some programs in linux can use the win32 dll's to support playback for wmv and stuff.
[02:41] <halpo> do i need to comile new kernel
[02:41] <chuckyp> bon, did you try launching it from a terminal?
[02:41] <_jason> halpo: why do you need a new kernel?
[02:41] <DrMO> neo911: Some things have not been written froms cratch or ported, they have been half inched from windows and ubuntu uses a compatability layer to run them.
[02:41] <zmo1138> halpo, for vmware you don't need to compile your own kernel
[02:41] <halpo> coz it sasy that
[02:41] <neo911> Skrot ic ic, i just didnt want my linux install to get tainted by anything windows ;-)
[02:41] <halpo> zmo1138, what then+
[02:41] <DrMO> neo911: one of these is wmv suport
[02:42] <halpo> it says i have to have C
[02:42] <neo911> DrMO, ic ic
[02:42] <halpo> GCC
[02:42] <zmo1138> halpo first you get your build-essential
[02:42] <zmo1138> halpo sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:42] <halpo> apt-get?
[02:42] <halpo> ok
[02:42] <bon> chuckyp:yeah
[02:42] <halpo> zmo1138, got it
[02:43] <halpo> what now?
[02:43] <bon> chuckyp:i even downloaded and installed it from soucre
[02:43] <Howitzer> Question: I have a kubuntu cd and i want to install KDE packages without having to download them, how do i add the kubuntu cd to my sources.list?
[02:43] <zmo1138> halpo brb
[02:43] <flax^^> is there a ventrilo client for linux?
[02:43] <DrMO> neo911: but if you want to write a wmv lib, we could do with one... that and a decent pdf write lib.
[02:43] <neo911> last call so "sudo dpkg -i w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb" is not gonna mess up my ubuntu 5.10 install eh? sorry ive been thru a lot of installs and i cringe having to do it again :-|
[02:43] <bon> chuckyp:it just says command not found
[02:43] <halpo> flax^^, no
[02:43] <flax^^> :(
[02:43] <halpo> =(
[02:43] <Frogzoo> Howitzer: probly just copy the line for the ubuntu cd that should already be there
[02:44] <halpo> try running it with wine flax^^
[02:44] <Howitzer> i tried that but it didn't work :(
[02:44] <halpo> =(
[02:44] <Quinn_Storm> neo911: it won't kill your install, don't worry, worst it'll do, WORST, is mess up your codecs, but I TOTALLY doubt that.
[02:44] <flax^^> halpo, wine?
[02:44] <neo911> Quinn_Storm, cool... here goes
[02:44] <Frogzoo> Howitzer: try browsing the cd
[02:44] <Howitzer> hmm
[02:45] <Howitzer> nvm
[02:45] <Howitzer> Nautilus automaticly found the cd and loaded it into the repo's
[02:45] <Frogzoo> lol
[02:45] <Howitzer> XFCE didn't do this :D
[02:45] <bon> chuclyp: it just says command not found
[02:46] <zmo1138> halpo still there? next get your kernel source and headers...
[02:46] <chuckyp> bon, is it instlaled?
[02:46] <chuckyp> bon, are you running KDE?
[02:46] <halpo> yes
[02:46] <HCl> can any one tell me why ethereal refuses to run under ubuntu? and possibly what kernel options i need to enable to get it to run?
[02:46] <halpo> zmo1138, k
[02:46] <Frogzoo> HCl: tried running with sudo?
[02:46] <HCl> yes, i'm running it as root.
[02:46] <bon> chuclyp: i have evfen downloaded the soucre and yeah i am using kde
[02:46] <eckzz> !mountwindows
[02:46] <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
[02:47] <chuckyp> bon, why not just install it via apt  like sudo apt-get install ksim
[02:47] <zmo1138> halpo sudo apt-get install kernel-source-yourkernelversion
[02:47] <chuckyp> bon, to see if its installed you could dpkg -l | grep ksim
[02:47] <HCl> it fails on a capset syscall
[02:47] <bon> yeah thats what i did first
[02:47] <chuckyp> bon, or if you installed form source you might have to tyep in terminal which ksim
[02:47] <flax^^> is there a keyboard shortcut for switching between the different "desktops"
[02:47] <zmo1138> halpo sudo apt-get install linux-headers-yourversion
[02:47] <ProdyGee> hi
[02:48] <gnomefreak> flax^^: ctrl+alt+arrows
[02:48] <flax^^> gnomefreak, tnx :)
[02:48] <Howitzer> What is the name of the KDE package in Kubuntu?(KDE only, no kubuntu-desktop)
[02:48] <gnomefreak> yw
[02:48] <bon> chuclyp: i installed it from apt-get first
[02:48] <zmo1138> halpo then start the vmware installer script and default answers should be all good :)
[02:48] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: kde should install kde-base
[02:48] <neo911> with windows i just click on the link for the streaming audio and it launches Win Media Player, how is it for MPlayer? i can't seem to get it working with just a point and click...
[02:48] <Howitzer> ty gnomefreak
[02:49] <gnomefreak> yw Howitzer
[02:49] <katarot> would wine work on the driver.exe
[02:49] <halpo> zmo1138, where do i get kernel-source-2.6.12-10
[02:49] <halpo> is any 2.6.12 good?
[02:49] <halpo> there was not sources for my kernel in apt-get
[02:49] <chuckyp> bon, well in terminal what does "which ksim" return?  Without the quotes ofcourse
[02:50] <halpo> linux-headers-2.6.12-10
[02:50] <halpo> those i took
[02:50] <[Leo] > halpo: it can't be...
[02:50] <ProdyGee> can somebody help me how to install my soundcard?
[02:50] <[Leo] > halpo: did you compiled your kernel?
[02:50] <zmo1138> halpo you can use synaptic and search for kernel-source
[02:50] <halpo> no
[02:50] <bon> chuclyp: nothing
[02:50] <halpo> its default buntu kernel
[02:51] <[Leo] > halpo: so you should find out your kernel-source
[02:51] <ProdyGee> if i write: sudo modprobe snd-gusclassic its working, but i don't want to write it in always
[02:51] <Frogzoo> halpo: I think best you'll do is kernel-source-2.6.11
[02:51] <halpo> linux-source-2.6.12 is that good?
[02:51] <halpo> i have -10
[02:51] <chuckyp> bon, well ksim isn't installed it seems
[02:51] <halpo> 2.6.12-10
[02:51] <ProdyGee> if i write it into etc/modules its not wworking
[02:51] <bon> mmmhh
[02:51] <bon> strange
[02:51] <neo911> !mplayer
[02:51] <ubotu> mplayer is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[02:52] <neo911> !streaming audio
[02:52] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, neo911
[02:52] <chuckyp> bon, in terminal type sudo apt-get install ksim
[02:53] <fiveiron> ugh... why do over half of my available updates never download
[02:54] <Frogzoo> fiveiron: u on dialup?
[02:54] <fiveiron> nope
[02:54] <gnomefreak> fiveiron: you mean like kernels?
[02:55] <flax^^> how do i install an app i downloaded? its .run
[02:55] <fiveiron> no... i mean like updates through apt-get
[02:55] <gnomefreak> fiveiron: run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade see if that grabs them
[02:55] <fiveiron> will try that
[02:57] <halpo> ok zmo1138
[02:57] <halpo> i have them all now
[02:57] <fabio> HEHEHE
[02:57] <neo911> the streaming radio's link says "mms://mirrors.martin.bitstop.ph/acbd" is this supposed to work with mplayer and w32codecs? thanks!
[02:57] <halpo> sources headers and essetils
[02:58] <LogicalDash> When I log on, "Metacity Window Manager" is displayed for about a minute before everything else loads and I can actually use the desktop. What can I do to fix this?
[02:58] <_jason> neo911: if you want it to play in firefox, you need mozilla-mplayer
[02:58] <neo911> ic
[02:58] <zmo1138> halpo ok try the vmware-install.pl script should be easy now :)
[02:58] <herede> is there a package for the MAN sections 2&3?
[02:58] <halpo> ok
[02:59] <neo911> _jason,  ic ic thanks
[03:01] <neo911> _jason, ive jsut installed mozilla-mplayer but it doesnt show up in my program files... i can only see mplayer... also, when i click on the streaming radio link, it launches totem video player instead, what to do what to do? :-)
[03:01] <halpo> zmo1138, didnt work
[03:01] <halpo> same thing again
[03:01] <bon> chuclyp: http://paste.uni.cc/8758
[03:01] <halpo> i need to make my own kernel with my own GCC
[03:01] <chuckyp> neo911, mozilla-mplayer is just a plugin you won't see it in your menus anywhere.
[03:01] <_jason> neo911: mozilla-mplayer will play the embedded videos.  As for your second question, I am trying to see myself
[03:02] <chuckyp> halpo, why doyou need to make your own kernel?
[03:02] <neo911> _jason,  thanks mate!
[03:02] <neo911> chuckyp, as well
[03:02] <chuckyp> neo911, what do you want streaming radio to open with?  You can install kafiene and the plugins for it.
[03:02] <_jason> neo911: it doesn't seem to play through mplayer though
[03:02] <chuckyp> neo911, or vlc
[03:02] <bon> chuclyp: http://paste.uni.cc/8758
[03:03] <neo911> chuckyp, i just want to be able to play the links for streaming radio stations... thanks!
[03:04] <chuckyp> bon, try sudo apt-get update something in your sources.list is wrong.
[03:04] <halpo> who wants to help me install wmvare
[03:04] <neo911> chuckyp, if i install kafiene will it auto install other necessary plug-ins for streaming audio? i use synaptic
[03:04] <halpo> i rly need it
[03:04] <herede> come on guys, does nobody know if the programming section of the manual are available as a package?
[03:04] <chuckyp> !tell bon about repos
[03:04] <chuckyp> neo911, try kafiene or whatever its called.  No you would have to installthe codecs.  VLC won't need any codecs and it has a mozilla plugin as well.
[03:04] <neo911> chuckyp, kafiene doesnt seem to show up in my repo
[03:05] <chuckyp> neo911, the name of it is kaffeine sorry bout the spelling mistakes.
[03:05] <chuckyp> !tell neo911 about restricted
[03:05] <_jason> chuckyp: can you try his link... I can't get it to play with anything.  mms://mirrors.martin.bitstop.ph/acbd
[03:05] <neo911> so which one's better kaffeine or vlc? i've just d/l vlc
[03:05] <_jason> vlc won't play wmv9
[03:06] <neo911> _jason, because acbd is supposed to be dzbb
[03:06] <neo911> :-|
[03:06] <neo911> sorry
[03:07] <_jason> neo911: ah, then mplayer is playing fine.  Although I understand nothing they are saying
[03:07] <neo911> _jason, can you play it now? :-)
[03:07] <neo911> _jason, ic where you from?
[03:07] <neo911> its just some news i was trying to follow
[03:07] <bon> chuclyp: why are they wrong
[03:07] <neo911> am
[03:07] <_jason> neo911: you can type 'mplayer mms://mirrors.martin.bitstop.ph/dzbb' in a terminal, or just tell mplayer to open it
[03:07] <chuckyp> _jason, what type of file is that suposed to be it appears your link is bad
[03:08] <flax^^> how do i make XMMS read    properely?
[03:08] <_jason> chuckyp: indeed, it is supposed to be mms://mirrors.martin.bitstop.ph/dzbb
[03:08] <chuckyp> _jason, what is that supposed to be what sort of stream?
[03:08] <chuckyp> _jason, and where are you getting these links?
[03:08] <_jason> chuckyp: from neo911 :)
[03:09] <irvs10tz> i have a question bout xchat here.. why is it that every time anyone gives me a priv8 mesg in other servers, it appears in the window channel??
[03:10] <chuckyp> _jason, I have no idea what those streams are but they aren't even close to a proper link.  All I know is I can play shoutcast links and anything I want. I can use rythmbox for streaming radio or kafeine
[03:10] <neo911> _jason,  its now working albeit no GUI launched
[03:10] <_jason> neo911: oh, use gmplayer if you want gui
[03:11] <neo911> oh it seems to be working _jason
[03:11] <irvs10tz> i have a question bout xchat here.. why is it that every time anyone gives me a priv8 mesg in other servers, it appears in the window channel??
[03:11] <neo911> irvs10tz, i think it appears in main but only you can see it
[03:12] <_jason> chuckyp: the second link should work in xine
[03:12] <chuckyp> _jason, not in mine didn't really let it go for to long as I have no idea what type of stream it is.
[03:12] <neo911> _jason, chuckyp when i d/l using synaptic where does the file go? is it okay to delete it?
[03:13] <irvs10tz> neo911, yup.. but i get confused when there are so many msgs.. how can i fix this thing up..
[03:13] <halpo> if i wanna use same options that ubuntus kernel has in my kerel
[03:13] <halpo> where do i get the options?
[03:13] <halpo> for kernel source
[03:13] <chuckyp> neo911, _jason when you d/l what an app it gets installed to remove it you can just mark it for uninstallation and it will unistall the app.
[03:13] <ghort> halpo, look in /boot/config-...
[03:14] <neo911> _jason,  chuckyp what if i have another ubuntu machine where i want to install the pkgs i already d/l from synaptic, can i just copy and transfer these files to that other machine on the same location? thansk!
[03:14] <chuckyp> neo911, if you are talking about where does the package go I believe the go in /var/cache/archives  to get rid of the packages it downloads you would type in sudo apt-get clean
[03:14] <neo911> irvs10tz, sorry thats all i can tell you im a novice myself :-|
[03:14] <Matic`Makovec> hows with w32codecs? i can't find them anywhere
[03:14] <chuckyp> neo911, yeah you would copy /var/cache/archives
[03:14] <_jason> !w32codecs
[03:14] <ubotu> [w32codecs]  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
[03:14] <chuckyp> neo911, let me double check that real quick
[03:14] <Matic`Makovec> thanks _jason
[03:15] <_jason> chuckyp: that wouldn't install them and I think it's /var/cache/apt/archives/
[03:15] <neo911> chuckyp, so you mean i can transfer these files to another ubuntu machine i want to install them in?
[03:15] <halpo> >> Unable to find the Ncurses libraries.
[03:15] <halpo> apt-get what?
[03:15] <bon> chuclyp: i give up
[03:15] <_jason> !kernelcompile
[03:15] <ubotu> You will probably find info about this at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCompileHowto
[03:15] <chuckyp> neo911, /var/cache/apt/archives is were all the debs are.  THen you would copy them to the other computer then just dpkg -i * or whatever to install all the debs.
[03:15] <_jason> halpo: read that ^
[03:15] <halpo> no i dont wanna
[03:16] <_jason> halpo: suit yourself
[03:16] <halpo> fuckig hate paste links
[03:16] <halpo> i just wanna click them
[03:16] <spike> hi there
[03:16] <neo911> _jason,  chuckyp or i can just use synaptic when ive transferred them right?
[03:17] <_jason> halpo: ctrl-click
[03:17] <halpo> what do i need to apt-get to use make menuconfig
[03:17] <neo911> _jason, chuckyp but yea ill try that later
[03:17] <halpo> some ncurse
[03:17] <halpo> dont remember what
[03:17] <spike> can anybody help me with ppp problems? I've got one of those vodafone pcmcia card gprs/umts enabled, but I cant get them to work
[03:17] <chuckyp> neo911, if they are in archives I don't think it will redownload them.
[03:17] <Matic`Makovec> halpo, apt-get install ncurses-dev ?
[03:17] <chuckyp> neo911, but i'm not sure
[03:17] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:17] <ZooR2> Hi! I have a problem with installing ubuntu. I've tried over and over and over again to install it on my new laptop but the installation always close after "starting hotplug subsystem". It freezes. Has anyone had this problem? This regards ubuntu version 5.10 ( and older versions aswell ). I've done all that I can think of... any ideas?
[03:17] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:17] <neo911> chuckyp, yea thats what im trying to avoid
[03:17] <spike> I get as further as Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyUSB0 and then it dies
[03:17] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:17] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:17] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:17] <spike> IPCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
[03:17] <halpo> k
[03:17] <_jason> I-Jony-Ubuntu: stop
[03:17] <ghort> halpo, apt-get ncurses-dev
[03:17] <ghort> halpo, apt-get install ncurses-dev
[03:18] <ghort> sorry
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:18] <neo911> _jason, when you tried to play the streaminglink does it play smooth or is it like broken?
[03:18] <Mabus06> ZooR2: I got those errors, the problem seemed to be my video card.
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi every one
[03:18] <chuckyp> ZooR2, have you tried a different cd just to make sure the cd isn't bad?
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi everyone
[03:18] <neo911> _jason, it seems like a really bad radio reception
[03:18] <flax^^> how do i make xmms read    properely?
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> hi
[03:18] <ZooR2> chuckyp: Yes I have. Not even the LiveDVD / LiveCD works.
[03:18] <_jason> neo911: smooth, what connection do you have?
[03:18] <I-Jony-Ubuntu> i am David from paris
[03:18] <spike> Seveas: please, kick him
[03:18] <ZooR2> Mabus06: ok what did you do to solve the problem?
[03:18] <neo911> broadband
[03:18] <_jason> I-Jony-Ubuntu:please stop repeating or you are going to get kicked
[03:19] <neo911> _jason, broadband
[03:19] <chuckyp> ZooR2, also you may want to check out some options when the cd boots i.e. f2 f3 lists them I beleive see if there is something about hotplug in there.  Worst case you could instlal in expert mode.  and not select the hotplug module.
[03:19] <Hoxzer> GUys somebody here uses xine?
[03:19] <Matic`Makovec> ah, thanks god.
[03:19] <chuckyp> is Seveas just monitoring or did someone tell him lol?
 Seveas: please, kick him
[03:19] <_jason> neo911: you can try caching more, try: mplayer -cache 500 <link>
[03:19] <katarot> i need to get my dell wireless mini-pci wlan card detected i tried ndiswrapper
[03:19] <Mabus06> ZooR2: I didn't, really. :-/
[03:19] <chuckyp> Hoxzer, I use xine as a backend to kaffeine
[03:19] <ZooR2> chuckyp: hmm ok. I'll check that. Thanks for the tip...
[03:19] <ZooR2> Mabus06: ok :(
[03:20] <Seveas> so someone called, should have used the !ops trigger though ;)
[03:20] <neo911> ah ic ic
[03:20] <chuckyp> katarot, still didn't get it working?
[03:20] <Hoxzer> chuckyp: :(
[03:20] <Lalavava> Hi.
[03:20] <chuckyp> katarot, what chipset is on the card?
[03:20] <spike> Seveas: uh, what's the !ops trigger?
[03:20] <Hoxzer> for some reason xine cuts parts of the video picture (upper and lower part)
[03:20] <spike> Seveas: bot calling ops for help?
[03:20] <chuckyp> spike, it alearts them.
[03:20] <Seveas> yep
[03:20] <_jason> spike: ubotu calls all the ops
[03:20] <katarot> chuckyp: nope the driver is installed tho
[03:20] <Hoxzer> it is pretty annoying as it cuts the subtitles
[03:20] <Seveas> (don't use now - abuse of it triggers instant bans)
[03:20] <chuckyp> katarot, what chipset is the card is it bc43xx?
[03:21] <neo911> _jason, ic ic but is there a way i can make mplayer or vlc the default player to launch streaming links?
[03:21] <chuckyp> katarot, because I saw someone the other day saying those drivers where compiled in the kernel
[03:21] <katarot> emm i dunno how can i check
[03:21] <_jason> neo911: oh right, I want to do that too...
[03:21] <chuckyp> katarot, what is the model number of the card or is it built in the laptop?
[03:21] <katarot> it is bulit in
[03:21] <Lalavava> I have an Ubuntu 5.10 live disc, and when I run it it loads all of the preloading stuff in bios or whatever, but then it just freezes with a _ in the top left corner of the screen.. anyone know why?
[03:21] <chuckyp> katarot, what kind of dell?
[03:21] <Matic`Makovec> long time ago, i added sme proxy and now wget and apt-get and everyting is using it (i deleted that proxy from apt.conf already so i really dont know where i forgot  to delet it)
[03:21] <NFSRaser03> Wat tust du hier
[03:21] <neo911> _jason, just like in windows
[03:21] <katarot> dell inspiron 1300
[03:22] <chuckyp> katarot, k hold up let me do some checking i'll get ya working here.
[03:22] <Spde> how do i set /usr/ftp as start dir when a user connects to proftpd server? DefaultRoot /usr/ftp dosnt seam to work
[03:22] <_jason> neo911: if you install totem-xine, it will play things well too.  So you can do that until I figure out how to change it if you want
[03:22] <katarot> cool thanks
[03:22] <k31th> anyone got a 9800 pro running the fglrx driver ?
[03:23] <avi_> hi all i need help :)
[03:23] <k31th> avi_: your in the right place
[03:23] <spike> it depends...
[03:23] <spike> none answered my question :)
[03:24] <_jason> !helpme
[03:24] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[03:24] <k31th> lol
[03:24] <avi_> how can i delete folder ..? this folder with icon of lock...

[03:24] <avi_> yap
[03:24] <avi_> rmdir?
[03:24] <avi_> not workind
[03:24] <ghort> avalost, rm -Rf
[03:25] <Matic`Makovec> rm -rf as i said
[03:25] <avi_> not working
[03:25] <Mabus06> sudo
[03:25] <spike> Matic`Makovec: that wouldnt help since it's locked
[03:25] <Spde> me2 =) i want the user ftpa to get /usr/ftp as root dir when he logs in to my proftps server
[03:25] <Mabus06> sudo rm -rf
[03:25] <_jason> avi_: what does 'ls -ld folder' say?
[03:25] <ghort> avi_, check permission with ls -l
[03:25] <ProdyGee> if i write: sudo modprobe snd-gusclassic its working, but i don't want to write it in always
[03:25] <ProdyGee> if i write it into etc/modules its not working
[03:25] <spike> and if it's locked maybe he shouldnt rm it...
[03:25] <ghort> avalost, yep sudo rm -Rf will do it
[03:25] <spike> avi_: what dir is that?
[03:25] <ghort> avalost, oops not for you
[03:25] <neo911> avi_ how about sudo rmdir "dir"
[03:25] <turix> hi everyone
[03:26] <spike> ppl shouldnt suggest rm -rf with sudo without asking what dir that is imho...
[03:26] <avi_> /home/avi/Desktop#
[03:26] <avi_> yes i tried
[03:26] <avi_> with sudo
[03:26] <chuckyp> katarot, alright send me a pm
[03:26] <spike> anybody with a pcmcia gprs/umts card?
[03:26] <neo911> spike, is right he he
[03:26] <katarot> ok
[03:27] <katarot> two secs
[03:27] <avi_> ?
[03:27] <neo911> _jason, its working now... u da man!
[03:27] <_jason> avi_: what does 'ls -ld folder' say?
[03:27] <Spde> do i need to do something to reload when i have edit in the passwd file?
[03:27] <avi_> 21 avi avi
[03:27] <avi_> drwxrwxrwx  21 avi avi      4096 2006-03-18 11:29 Data
[03:28] <spike> and shouldnt spread bed terminology too ;)
[03:28] <neo911> okay i thnk im gonna call it a night thanks evryne!
[03:28] <spike> s/folder/directory/
[03:28] <ghort> spike, no but I found http://www.kuix.de/umts/vodafone/ it's maybe what you need
[03:28] <spike> ghort: yeah, already went through that and a few other
[03:28] <Spde> stop ignoring me =(
[03:28] <spike> there's a very detailed one for FC4 too
[03:28] <avi_> jason? :)
[03:28] <spike> but none of them will work
[03:29] <chuckyp> Spde, what are you trying to do?
[03:29] <G0SUB> Seveas: there? PM?
[03:29] <_jason> spike: what about the folder above it?
[03:29] <spike> I can use minicom to talk to the card, etc, it's a prob with ppp
[03:29] <ghort> Spde, maybe logout/login no more for sure
[03:29] <chuckyp> Spde, what ftp server are you using?
[03:29] <knoppix> hy ,i deleted my hda6 partition and hda7 was my /boot/ and hda8 was ,my root partition ,i rewrote fstab ,fixed the grub in the boot sector ,rewrote the grub menu ,what else do i haveto do?
[03:29] <avi_> jason? :) help....
[03:30] <_jason> avi_: what is the full path to Data?
[03:30] <Spde> chuckyp: proftpd
[03:30] <Seveas> G0SUB, hi 
[03:30] <chuckyp> Spde, just edit the /etc/proftpd.conf and change it int here.
[03:30] <avi_> /home/avi/Desktop/Data
[03:30] <G0SUB> Seveas: heh, are those JP emoticons btw?
[03:30] <_jason> avi_: what does 'ls -ld ~/Desktop' say?
[03:31] <deizi> wtf?? it is rebooting after Grub
[03:31] <ghort> spike, I don't have such a card :(
[03:31] <Seveas> G0SUB, not emoticons but yeah, katakana characters
[03:31] <avi_> ls: /root/Desktop: No such file or directory
[03:31] <Spde> chuckyp: i cant? i have tryed to add DefaultRoot /usr/ftp but it doesn't help?
[03:32] <G0SUB> Seveas: heh
[03:32] <spike> _jason: well, afaik, "folder" is a broken name , something apple introduced and MS mimicked, but on *nix it's always been "directory". nothing vital, tho, just hate the term myself
[03:32] <_jason> avi_: what does 'ls -ld /home/avi/Desktop' say?
[03:32] <chuckyp> Spde, well after you do that you have to restart the service i.e. /etc/init.d/proftpd restart
[03:32] <avi_> drwxr-xr-x  6 avi avi 4096 2006-03-18 16:04 /home/avi/Desktop
[03:32] <chuckyp> Spde, and you need to make sure that directory exhists
[03:33] <Spde> chuckyp: ok i will give it one more try. thanks
[03:33] <_jason> avi_: and 'rm -rf /home/avi/Desktop/Data' doesn't work?  what does it say?
[03:33] <ompaul> CP_away, it would be much better if you did this >>/away reason<< - this changes your nick colour for some clients but if somone says your name they get back the message, if we had 700 people doing this it would make the channel unusable
[03:33] <knoppix> i deleted my hda6 partition and hda7 was my /boot/ and hda8 was ,my root partition ,i rewrote fstab ,fixed the grub in the boot sector ,rewrote the grub menu ,what else do i haveto do?
[03:33] <chuckyp> Spde, after editing the conf you always have to restart the service so it uses the new conf.  Oh yeah you have to put a sudo infront of that so sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd restart
[03:34] <rnd_null> i'm having trouble with a usb -> bluetooth adapter, can anyone help?? model FBT001 ver. 2.11
[03:34] <avi_> great tnx Jason!!!
[03:34] <chuckyp> !tell rnd_null about bluetooth
[03:34] <Spde> chuckyp: it works.. had forgot the / in the end if /use/ftp =) thanks
[03:34] <chuckyp> Spde, np
[03:35] <chuckyp> knoppix, what else do you have to do to do what?
[03:35] <chuckyp> knoppix, what was on hda6 originally?
[03:36] <knoppix> it was partition where i kept stuff
[03:36] <ompaul> chuckyp, he reported /boot/ as living there
[03:36] <knoppix> but it didn`t contain any 'system' files
[03:36] <chuckyp> knoppix, okay and you just wanted to remove it?  THen you shouldn't have had to edit grub unless you where booting fromt here.
[03:37] <diffuser78> hi
[03:37] <katarot> chuckyp: my computer crashed sorry
[03:37] <knoppix> chuckyp, if i delete hda6 then hda7 becomes hda6 and hda6 was where i kept /boot/
[03:37] <chuckyp> knoppix, I don't understand the question actually but after youd eleted the partition as long as fstab isn't tryign to auto mount it you should be able to reboot.  If all else fails you can boot off of a nix cd and chroot to your ubuntu install to fix stuff.
[03:37] <Mabus06> Can somebody help me? I followed the wiki's instructions on how to mount windows shares automatically, and now I can't boot to windows. I get a blue screen that says I should check to make sure my disk hasn't failed. However I can still access it via ubuntu, so I don't think it's corrupted.
[03:38] <k3mper> hi, where should i put ssh-add if i want it to ask me for pass when i login using gdm?
[03:38] <chuckyp> Mabus06, can you paste your /boot/grub/menu.1st  but you auto mounting it shouldn't have had anythign to do with it.  Unless you tried to write to it.
[03:38] <_jason> Mabus06: that sounds like a windows problem
[03:39] <_jason> Mabus06: what error is it?
[03:39] <chuckyp> !tell Mabus06 about paste
[03:40] <chuckyp> knoppix, so what is your question then?  Or what are you trying to accomplish it looks like you've done everything.
[03:40] <Mabus06> _jason: tells me to fdisk or whatever... may be a windows problem but directly caused by ubuntu
[03:41] <knoppix> that`s what i don`t know ,i edited the grub ,and now i dont understand why doesnt it boot my kernel
[03:41] <_jason> Mabus06: usually there are error codes and the windows help site will tell you what they mean
[03:41] <oblib> Does anyone know where in the boot process the usbhid module is loaded?
[03:41] <chuckyp> knoppix, okay post your menu.1st to pastebin or something let me see it.
[03:41] <_jason> Mabus06: did windows ever boot since you installed ubuntu?
[03:42] <Mabus06> _jason: no
[03:42] <chuckyp> Mabus06, well then something is wrong with grub.
[03:42] <chuckyp> Mabus06, or atleast your entry in grub for your windows partition.
[03:42] <chuckyp> Mabus06, are you able to paste the grub file?
[03:43] <Mabus06> http://pastebin.ca/46124
[03:43] <Mabus06> patience. ;P
[03:43] <_jason> Mabus06: how far does it get?  do you see the windows logo?
[03:44] <Mabus06> _jason: well, on the second try it will get to the 'windows did not start normally" bit, and let me pick safe mode or not, but either way it goes to the blue screen. No, no windows logo.
[03:44] <knoppix> chuckyp,  http://pastebin.com/609057
[03:44] <chuckyp> Mabus06, was xp installed before ubuntu or after
[03:44] <Mabus06> before
[03:44] <_jason> Mabus06: if it gets that far then it doesn't sound like grub is looking at the wrong partition afaik
[03:45] <knoppix> hda7 was hda8 before
[03:45] <chuckyp> knoppix, okay well hda0,7 is not hda6 if thats where you want to boot from
[03:45] <katarot> hey i found this file can some one take a look and tell me if im ment to do this or will i do it the way on the wiki
[03:45] <Mabus06> _jason: and I haven't edited menu.lst, I don't see why that would be it
[03:46] <chuckyp> Mabus06, should boot maybe try booting to xp cd in recovery mode and running scandisk or try hitting f8 before the xp logo comes up and boot into commandline and run scandisk
[03:46] <Mabus06> But as I said before, I can read it perfectly fine from ubuntu.
[03:46] <learner_learner> has anyone install Gnome SSH Tunnel Manager (gstm)?
[03:46] <ompaul> knoppix,  ls there a file >> vmlinuz-2.6.12-9-386 << in /dev/hda7  also is there an initrd there?
[03:46] <Mabus06> Listen to my music etc.
[03:46] <chuckyp> knoppix, hd0,5 would be what you want.
[03:46] <chuckyp> knoppix, that would boot from hda6 if I understand what you want to do.
[03:47] <pjn_> where can I get info about whether apache2 in breezy supports >2G files out of the box?
[03:47] <pjn_> I'm having problems serving files larger than that
[03:47] <knoppix> hda6 is the /boot. and hda7 is the root
[03:47] <_jason> Mabus06: there should be a STOP error code at the bototm of the bsod.  google those, that's usually the best way
[03:47] <chuckyp> knoppix, in grub hd0,0=hda1 hd0,1=hda2 and so forth.
[03:47] <knoppix> ohhh so maybe thats the problem
[03:48] <knoppix> thanks
[03:48] <chuckyp> knoppix, yeap
[03:48] <oblib> Does anyone know where in the boot process the usbhid module is loaded?
[03:48] <chuckyp> knoppix, the numbering in grub for partitions is not the same as hda1 etc... soyou are one off is all because hd0,0 is the first hard drive first partition then they go from there.  If that makes sense toyou hopefully.
[03:49] <jverdugo> hola

[03:50] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[03:50] <linuxboyfriend> how can i upgrade gnome to 2.14
[03:50] <jverdugo> bye
[03:50] <crimsun> linuxboyfriend: you could try dapper if you're not already using it
[03:51] <biyonder> Hello
[03:51] <Jelly> Hi
[03:51] <chuckyp> linuxboyfriend, you would have to do that or install it from source.  Or you might be able to find a repo that would have it.
[03:51] <biyonder> Do you know a program similar to aMule?
[03:51] <linuxboyfriend> crimsun, i tried dist-upgrade but i noticed that the download is very slow, why?
[03:52] <jose> ola
[03:52] <biyonder> jose, hol
[03:53] <okta> hey
[03:53] <chuckyp> linuxboyfriend, 2.14 may be in backports not sure though.
[03:53] <imperfect-> I'm having a hell of a time w/ nvidia drivers
[03:53] <neo911> just wanted to ask what's the command to transfer a file from the remote to the local drive when logged in to a remote machine using ssh? thanks!
[03:53] <chuckyp> linuxboyfriend, you can try using a mirror thats closer to you.
[03:54] <chuckyp> neo911, scp
[03:54] <neo911> chuckyp, cool, ssh and scp are secure right?
[03:54] <chuckyp> neo911, scp <file> <username>@<ipaddress>:<DestinationDirectory>
[03:54] <chuckyp> neo911, yeap its secure.
[03:55] <oblib> imperfect- are you going to be more descriptive?
[03:55] <imperfect-> oblib : I'm trying to set up HDTV + LCD using an nvidia 6600GT
[03:56] <imperfect-> oblib : I'm using the drivers from nvidia
[03:56] <chuckyp> ubotu, scp is A way to copy files securely using ssh.  <file> <username>@<ipaddress>:<DestinationDirectory>
[03:56] <ubotu> chuckyp: okay
[03:56] <imperfect-> oblib : I can only get it to display on the TV, and the color is way off....
[03:56] <chuckyp> imperfect-, let me get you a link. Maybe you need to specify pal or ntsc-m what ever region you are trying to use.
[03:57] <imperfect-> chuckyp : Yeah, I already did gtat.
[03:57] <imperfect-> er that
[03:57] <imperfect-> I read the nvidia readme
[03:57] <oblib> Anyone: How do I disable automount on the DVD drive?
[03:57] <katarot> arggh my computer keeps crashing how do i end apps
[03:57] <neo911> chuckyp, the command you just showed that's supposed to be used outside ssh login right? i want to be able to transfer inside ssh so i can go to the location of the file first
[03:57] <chuckyp> imperfect-, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NvidiaTVOut
[03:57] <oblib> imperfect- How are you connecting to the TV?
[03:58] <_jason> oblib: system > preferences > removable drives and media
[03:58] <imperfect-> oblib : through nvidia's breakout component box
[03:58] <chuckyp> neo911, well you can do it from within ssh
[03:58] <imperfect-> It should be said, this works flawlessly in windows...
[03:58] <oblib> _jason, thanks
[03:58] <chuckyp> neo911, ahh wait that would just copy it to the place you are at.
[03:58] <imperfect-> chuckyp : Yeah I already set it to HD1080i
[03:58] <neo911> chuckyp, exactly! :-)
[03:58] <jc-denton> can somebody help me getting bluetooth working with my k700i?
[03:59] <heyjoe2> my computers taking much longer to load when i boot ubuntu than when i boot xp. it seems to be stalling on loading the raid devices. could someone tell me how to speed this up and save settings?
[03:59] <cow_2001> 4 more mb
[03:59] <VladimirBG> I have serious issues with 5.10! when running live CD everything is ok, but when I install it half the things don't work! for example, I go to system-> administration -> networking and it starts to load and just dissapears! and that's not the only thing that fails!
[03:59] <tonyyarusso> Oh, by the way:  For anyone who heard my question about sendto capability in nautilus integrating with Gaim: turns out it's a Gaim feature in the addons, not a nautilus issue.
[03:59] <VladimirBG> and I can't read NTFS disks!
[03:59] <chuckyp> imperfect-, well if color is off maybe try a different cable or you have a card isue.
[03:59] <oblib> imperfect- and you can't get it to do both the TV and the LCD monitor?
[03:59] <_jason> VladimirBG: one thing at a time, did you do an expert install?
[03:59] <chuckyp> !tell jc-denton about bluetooth
[03:59] <Lalavava> I have an Ubuntu 5.10 live disc, and when I run it it loads all of the preloading stuff in bios or whatever, but then it just freezes with a _ in the top left corner of the screen.. anyone know why?
[04:00] <chuckyp> !tell heyjoe2 about tweaking
[04:00] <VladimirBG> yes
[04:00] <jc-denton> ok ill check that out
[04:00] <jc-denton> but where is the bluetooth password set
[04:00] <diffuser78> hi guys, i want to test dapper on my laptop
[04:00] <diffuser78> is it ready for laptop
[04:00] <LoCusF> jc-denton: /etc/bluetooth/pin
[04:00] <VladimirBG> _jason, and everything looked ok
[04:00] <chuckyp> VladimirBG, installing from livecd is kind of beta I would download the actually installer iso
[04:00] <_jason> VladimirBG: ok, just to check.  what does 'sudo echo hi' do in applications menu > accessories > terminal
[04:01] <sorush20_> what is a really good media player program that is very similar to MS Media player?
[04:01] <neo911> anyone know how to do this?
[04:01] <VladimirBG> _jason, I installed it from the install disk
[04:01] <diffuser78> amorous
[04:01] <oblib> imperfect- Did you compile the drivers, or are you using the repository ones?
[04:01] <jc-denton> LoCusF: yes
[04:01] <jc-denton> i enterd that in my mobile phone
[04:01] <VladimirBG> thats what I'm saying] 
[04:01] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: thanks
[04:01] <jc-denton> and it says it's wront
[04:01] <jc-denton> wrong
[04:01] <imperfect-> oblib : compiled them
[04:01] <VladimirBG> live cd works, install cd gives me headache!
[04:01] <_jason> sorush20_: mplayer is the best imo
[04:02] <_jason> VladimirBG: you lost me
[04:02] <oblib> imperfect- have you tried the repository ones? If they worked it would point to a bad compile
[04:02] <neo911> i login remotely to a machine via ssh. once logged in i go to the directory i want. once there i want to transfer the files in that directory to my local drive... thanks!
[04:03] <sorush20_> _jason: but play list functionality is so poor there is no way you could hold down ctrl and select files individually..
[04:03] <jc-denton> how do i access the gnome configuration in nautilus
[04:03] <_jason> neo911: without being ssh'd do this: scp -r user@host:/path/to/directory .
[04:03] <chuckyp> neo911, just open another terminal
[04:03] <VladimirBG> _jason,  I'm using live cd now, and all things work, earlyer today I installed 5.10 from installation CD, it booted up, and when I tryed to run half the things, the aplications just stalled!
[04:04] <_jason> VladimirBG: go to your install and come here again :)
[04:04] <chuckyp> neo911, see when you are in ssh you are executing commands on the remote system.  So the scp command would be issued remotely.  Hence why you need antoher terminal.
[04:04] <deizi> how to remove grub?
[04:04] <_jason> sorush20_: I can :/
[04:04] <VladimirBG> _jason, the same thing happend with 5.04
[04:04] <chuckyp> neo911, you could ctrl+alt+f1-6 to bring up a virtual console.  Then ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to x
[04:04] <chuckyp> !tell deizi about grub
[04:05] <gnomefreak> deizi: use windows disk and in terminal type fixmbr iirc
[04:05] <_jason> VladimirBG: it's known to happen with expert installs, we can fix it
[04:05] <neo911> chuckyp,  ok maybe i'm not supposed to use ssh, but how do i do this?
[04:05] <VladimirBG> _jason, and when I run install cd, I can't configure my modem
[04:05] <_jason> VladimirBG: one problem at a time, let's fix the gui admin apps first
[04:05] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: im having problems running the system config tool u recommended
[04:06] <chuckyp> neo911, no you can use ssh get a list of files then just open another terminal and copy the files.
[04:06] <jc-denton> ah it worked
[04:06] <chuckyp> neo911, there is also sftp
[04:06] <jc-denton> but how can i transfer files now
[04:06] <halpo> hehe taking pretty long to compile kernel with ubuntu settings :D
[04:06] <chuckyp> neo911, may better suit your needs.  then you could browse the files remotely and get them.
[04:06] <jc-denton> i used gnome-phone-manager
[04:06] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, what config tool?
[04:06] <crimsun> halpo: yes, since we modularise as much as sanely possible
[04:06] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, oh the tweaking thing
[04:07] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: yeah
[04:07] <VladimirBG> _jason, that's the problem, I can't come here with install CD, so if you can tell me what to do, I'll try it offline
[04:07] <halpo> crimsun,  how long is this gonna take :<
[04:07] <chuckyp> halpo, why not build your own kernel from kernel.org then?
[04:07] <sorush20_> _jason: is there anyway that I could add my home music directory to the mplayer?
[04:07] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, what sort of problems are you having?
[04:07] <halpo> has been doing this 40mins
[04:07] <_jason> VladimirBG: oh right... didn't click in my head :)  Sorry.  Do you know what 'su to root' means?
[04:07] <crimsun> halpo: a standard one-arch compile takes nearly two hours on a 1 GHz i686
[04:07] <crimsun> 512 MB RAM
[04:07] <halpo> ok
[04:07] <imperfect-> bwhahaha
[04:08] <imperfect-> this is great!
[04:08] <halpo> so just 30mins
[04:08] <imperfect-> I've got stuff displayed on each screen
[04:08] <halpo> hehe
[04:08] <VladimirBG> _jason, yes
[04:08] <imperfect-> but it's like red on my lcd
[04:08] <imperfect-> and nothing on the tv
[04:08] <gnomefreak> take me 4 days to do that :(
[04:08] <imperfect-> this is great!
[04:08] <imperfect-> ;)
[04:08] <VladimirBG> in console su will give me root access
[04:08] <heyjoe2> when i did the sysv command it says command not found
[04:08] <_jason> VladimirBG: ok su to root in console and then follow ubotu's instructions
[04:08] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: i did the sysv command it says command not found
[04:09] <_jason> ubotu: tell VladimirBG about expert
[04:09] <chuckyp> imperfect-, it sound like you have a bad cable or monitor one of the two
[04:09] <jc-denton> which path do i have to enter in nautilus to get to the gnome system configuration
[04:09] <jc-denton> or to the gnome application shortcut?
[04:09] <neo911> chuckyp, i went on with that alt-f2 screen withot having seen how to go back, i almost panicked ha ha
[04:09] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, did you install it?
[04:09] <neo911> chuckyp, so how to get the files once in the working directory via sftp? thanks!
[04:10] <_jason> sorush20_: no I don't know offhand.  If you are playing music files, something like beep or amarok is better suited imo
[04:10] <chuckyp> neo911, try get filename
[04:10] <VladimirBG> _jason, thanks
[04:10] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: yes
[04:10] <neo911> chuckyp, i tried get *.*
[04:10] <chuckyp> neo911, try get *
[04:10] <neo911> i don't know where the files went
[04:10] <neo911> oh
[04:10] <chuckyp> neo911, well you can cd and stuff from within scp
[04:10] <VladimirBG> I'll try that
[04:10] <netman1> Hi All. Just installed Breezy, am already convinced that I will drop Debian as a desktop ;-) However switching (Ctrl-Alt-Fx) does not work. How can I switch to console?
[04:11] <chuckyp> neo911, err sftp
[04:11] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, type which sysv-rc-conf in console
[04:11] <tonyyarusso> netman1: Are we dealing with a default install, or have you changed anything of note?
[04:11] <netman1> Default install + gnome + ldap
[04:11] <jc-denton> it worked with kde
[04:11] <jc-denton> but no idea about gnome
[04:12] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: i copied exactly what it said on the guide
[04:12] <neo911> chuckyp, it worked, except get * only copied files, the directories were not copied
[04:12] <mkrig> How do I update to Flight 5 without a whole new install?
[04:12] <Jelly> Hi, I'm new to Gnome and Ubuntu.   I noticed that ubuntu comes with a default of OpenOffice(yay!).  I noticed the context menu can't create new files, it says "no templates installed" .  How can I alter the context menu to create new OO docs of various types?   I went through the help manual that comes with ubuntu and I perused preferences and admin menus.   I don't mind reading a url on the web,
[04:12] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, type which sysv-rc-conf in console please and post the output
[04:12] <tonyyarusso> netman1: What's ldap?
[04:12] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, type "which sysv-rc-conf" in console please and post the output
[04:12] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, there no quotes ofcorse but thats the command I want you to run.
[04:13] <_jason> Jelly: create files in ~/Templates
[04:13] <neo911> tonyyarusso,  ldap is a directory service
[04:13] <netman1> Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. Central user authentication.
[04:13] <tonyyarusso> ubotu: tell mkrig about upgrade
[04:13] <Jelly> _jason, thanks
[04:13] <chuckyp> neo911, hrm... maybe someone with more experience with a terminal based ftp client can help.
[04:13] <neo911> chuckyp, that's ok, youve been great help
[04:13] <tonyyarusso> mkrig: Just modify that for Breezy to Dapper instead of Hoary to Breezy.
[04:13] <nexact--> hey all, I'm on windows I want to connect to my VNC server on my ubuntu at home.. I'm using the realvnc client .. I'm connecting to my box, it's asking me a passowrd then I press Ok and nothing appear.. anyone know why ?
[04:13] <heyjoe2> no output for which sysv-rc-conf
[04:14] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: no output
[04:14] <jayr168> how can I allow a user to have rw acces to a mounted hdd in /mnt?
[04:14] <chuckyp> neo911, here is a good guide http://www.cae.wisc.edu/site/public/?title=linux-sftp
[04:14] <ubuntu_> josua
[04:14] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, then try sudo apt-get update
[04:14] <_jason> jayr168: what filesystem?
[04:14] <kingspawn> jayr168: mount it with uid=username
[04:14] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, then sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf
[04:14] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, it appears you didnt' install it.
[04:14] <heyjoe2> it says i did in synaptic
[04:14] <tonyyarusso> netman1: Okay, well that kills the one theory I had to offer.  I had issues with it while running the ATI proprietary drivers, but aside from that I don't know why that would be happening in Breezy...seems very odd.  I would suggest trying back with that question at other times of day; hopefully you'll catch an expert in the area at some point.
[04:14] <jayr168> im editing in fstab
[04:15] <imperfect-> my personal favorite
[04:15] <jayr168> uid='username'?
[04:15] <imperfect-> is when I set this thing up and it locks up my machine!
[04:15] <imperfect-> I'm making progress!
[04:15] <kingspawn> jayr168: without the quotes
[04:15] <imperfect-> Now both screens are BLACK!
[04:15] <VladimirBG> p.s. anyone knows how to make bootloader that allows choice between win xp and ubuntu?
[04:15] <netman1> tonyyarusso: Thanks anyway.
[04:15] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, well maybe locate sysv-rc-conf and see if its on your system.  You probably have to do sudo updatedb first
[04:15] <tonyyarusso> VladimirBG: grub should be able to do that automatically.
[04:15] <kingspawn> VladimirBG: grub didn't do that for you?
[04:15] <linuxcrazy> check this out guys! http://news.softpedia.com/news/First-XGL-LiveCD-19371.shtml
[04:15] <aeon17x> Is there any way to resume burning on CD-Rs? It seems that I can only burn once into it even though there's still lots of space left.
[04:16] <Zarephath> jayr: No uid=userid..a unique number that was assigned when you created your user account...I believe Ubuntu starts at 1000
[04:16] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: ok its working now. thanx!
[04:16] <VladimirBG> no!
[04:16] <chuckyp> imperfect-, just google for twinview or dualview xorg you will find pages and pages of xorg options.
[04:16] <VladimirBG> and niether did lilo!
[04:16] <andres> hi
[04:16] <imperfect-> chuckyp : Yeah, I've got the twinview stuff in there ;)
[04:16] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, maybe you didn't hit apply or somehting in synaptic the first time.
[04:16] <gnomefreak> i think there is a wiki on dualscreens
[04:16] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: whats alsa?
[04:17] <chuckyp> imperfect-, there are tons more options that what you have.
[04:17] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, alsa is a sound card driver.
[04:17] <jayr168> ill place uid=inkel under the options tab in fstab?
[04:17] <Zarephath> aeon17x: If you burn it as a multi-session cd then it will let you burn more onto it..if not then it fixates the disk and blocks the remaining free space
[04:17] <tonyyarusso> The last couple of days the security repo has failed to update during my cron.daily run (7:35AM - 12:35UTC), and I've had to apt-get update manually at some other point in the day to fix it.  What's up?
[04:17] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, I wouldn't disable anything that you dont' know what it does.  You could break yoru system.  That page if you scroll down has lists of what each ting does.
[04:17] <VladimirBG> kingspawn, no, it didn't
[04:17] <aeon17x> Zarephath: how do I burn it as a multi-session CD?
[04:18] <chuckyp> tonyyarusso, how are you updating with out sudo?
[04:18] <aeon17x> There doesn't seem to be any options about that.
[04:18] <Mabus06> tonyyarusso: I have been having a lot of troubles with the canadian repos, try using just the default ones.
[04:18] <tonyyarusso> chuckyp: I'm not sure exactly what the script does, but it worked in the past.
[04:18] <Zarephath> aeon17x: I don't know..you haven's said what program you are using to burn said cd...it would be in preferences...in most cases I do believe
[04:18] <kingspawn> VladimirBG: then you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:18] <chuckyp> tonyyarusso, ahh you hav ea script to od it okay
[04:18] <tonyyarusso> Mabus06: This is mirror independent, just the security ones.
[04:19] <tonyyarusso> chuckyp: It's from the way it installed by default, I assume.  I haven't created any.
[04:19] <aeon17x> Zarephath: the default one by nautilus
[04:19] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: it says ^n is next page
[04:19] <heyjoe2> how do i get it go get to next pg
[04:19] <chuckyp> tonyyarusso, news to me I didn't know it automatically did security updates.
[04:19] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, ctrl+n maybe
[04:20] <chuckyp> heyjoe2, or alt+n or just n
[04:20] <mkrig> Trying to udpate to Flight 5 but can't get the update manager to see it.
[04:20] <heyjoe2> chuckyp: cheers
[04:20] <gnomefreak> !upgrade
[04:20] <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.
[04:20] <tonyyarusso> chuckyp: Huh.  Apparently it does.  Could also be that I checked a box or something in Synaptic that set that up.  Either way, it worked before and now seems buggy lately.
[04:20] <chuckyp> mkrig, dapper discusison is on #ubuntu+1
[04:20] <Jelly_> If I want more keyboard shortcuts than what I can get with system | pref| keyboard shortcuts, what can I do?  I tried xbindkey, the changes didn't seem to stick.  Is there a better app for this?
[04:20] <chuckyp> tonyyarusso, ahh dunno never really ran breezy.
[04:21] <_jason> ubotu: tell Jelly_ about shortcuts
[04:21] <chuckyp> Jelly, after xbindkey you probably have to restart x
[04:21] <Zarephath> aeon17x: Did you think to open nautilus and read the help, or search for multi session?
[04:22] <Jelly_> thanks
[04:22] <aeon17x> Zarephath: I've been doing that for the past hour.
[04:22] <ompaul> chuckyp, may I msg you?
[04:22] <norskfjord> something like smbpasswd
[04:23] <chuckyp> ompaul, sure
[04:23] <Zarephath> aeon17x: Wait a sec...
[04:23] <_thumper_> krypto_wizard, join #krypto_help
[04:23] <chuckyp> ompaul, message away I don't care.
[04:25] <diffuser78> hello
[04:25] <ynze> thanks!
[04:25] <diffuser78> I was wanting to talk to one of my friends here
[04:25] <diffuser78> but he cant get my messages
[04:25] <Zarephath> chuckyp: What is the default burning program nautilus calls to to burn a cd? gnomecombust?
[04:26] <_jason> diffuser78: you have to be registered to send messages
[04:26] <chuckyp> Zarephath, hrm... let me check
[04:26] <ynze> hmmm use also the same command to use the channel?
[04:26] <diffuser78> how to register
[04:26] <Zarephath> chuckyp: thanks
[04:26] <_jason> !register
[04:26] <ubotu> register is probably type /msg nickserv help register (you probably should do this in the server window so that if you mess up you won't reveal your password to the whole channel :))
[04:26] <diffuser78> plz tell me how to register
[04:26] <ynze> !register
[04:26] <ynze> ??
[04:26] <diffuser78> where
[04:26] <diffuser78> which website
[04:27] <ompaul> diffuser78, read the screen above
[04:27] <_jason> diffuser78: type /msg nickserv help register
[04:27] <ompaul> ynze, same 4 yourself
[04:27] <apokryphos> _jason: nope, you don't
[04:27] <gripner> sup all, anyone managed to install newest flight on vt8251 sata controller ?
[04:27] <ynze> :-) to ompaul
[04:27] <apokryphos> unregistered users can send messages to this channel
[04:27] <_jason> apokryphos: true, but I don't think I should explain about setting that option off
[04:27] <chuckyp> !tell gripner about dapper
[04:27] <_jason> :)
[04:28] <Zarephath> gripner: Use #ubunut+1 for those questions :-)
[04:28] <apokryphos> _jason: setting what option off?
[04:28] <diffuser78> diffuser78 smad2021
[04:28] <_jason> apokryphos: I might have misunderstood, what did you mean?
[04:28] <diffuser78> REGISTER smad2021
[04:28] <Lalavava> I have an Ubuntu 5.10 live disc, and when I run it it loads all of the preloading stuff in bios or whatever, but then it just freezes with a _ in the top left corner of the screen.. anyone know why?
[04:28] <Zarephath> They are better prepared to answer those questions..although I did see someone say they had a sata drive working..not sure if it meets up with your specified
[04:28] <apokryphos> _jason: just that users can send to this channel without being registered
[04:28] <apokryphos> diffuser78: he doesn't need to be registered. Perhaps he didn't join correctly?
[04:29] <ynze> pfff -- busy here... got a question about sound and ubuntu... anyone?
[04:29] <ikaros> he needed it for sending private msgs
[04:29] <crimsun> ynze: just ask
[04:29] <apokryphos> ah, private msgs, ok.
[04:29] <_jason> apokryphos: oh I understood ``here'' as freenode
[04:29] <ikaros> :p
[04:29] <diffuser78> PLEASE HELP
[04:29] <bunta> Yo folks
[04:29] <diffuser78> can't get that right
[04:29] <bunta> I've got errm.. not a 'linux' problem, but a memory problem (memory as in.. my head)
[04:29] <apokryphos> diffuser78: what is it that you are trying to do, exactly?
[04:29] <Zarephath> apokryphos: Is it ok for us regular users to bang ubotu when people ask questions, or is that just for people with voice, or ops?
[04:30] <ynze> crimsun: ubuntu installed and runs nice. but does noet regonise the soundcards I guess...
[04:30] <bunta> A guy in here sent me a 'black' theme for gnome
[04:30] <diffuser78> I want to register
[04:30] <lesce> has anyone tryed GAG as a bootloader ? i don't know why it doesnt boot ubuntu ?
[04:30] <_jason> diffuser78: /msg nickserv regsiter PASSWORD, and choose a new one since everyone just saw your old one
[04:30] <CP_away> ompaul: Sorry
[04:30] <diffuser78> and there is a friend of mine
[04:30] <diffuser78> he is online
[04:30] <_jason> diffuser78: /msg nickserv register PASSWORD, and choose a new one since everyone just saw your old one
[04:30] <bunta> Can anyone remember?
[04:30] <diffuser78> he is not getting my messages
[04:30] <crimsun> ynze: what sound card do you have?
[04:30] <apokryphos> Zarephath: no; anyone can, as long as he's not abused :)
[04:30] <ompaul> Celestianpower, now you know :-)
[04:30] <Zarephath> apokryphos: Kewl..thanks
[04:30] <bunta> OH
[04:30] <neo911> anyone know if there are  public ldap servers which i can query to so i can practice ldap commands? thanks!
[04:30] <Celestianpower> ompaul: :)
[04:30] <_thumper_> diffuser78, are you trying the /msg command suggested
[04:30] <bunta> I think it was pumpernickle
[04:31] <chuckyp> diffuser78, if you go in the server channel and /msg nickserv help it will show you how to register.
[04:31] <ynze> aha, there the problem starts, crimsun.... have to reboot to windows then???
[04:31] <jayr168> how do make a symlink for a konqueror superuser mode?
[04:32] <bunta> jayr168, I know that to symlink is ln -s .. hope this helps abit :)
[04:32] <apokryphos> jayr168: you shouldn't really use GUI apps, generally, with administrator perms
[04:32] <crimsun> ynze: not necessarily. How new is your hardware?

[04:34] <Zarephath> chuckyp: Too lazy to move over and get a blank cd...LOL

[04:36] <heyjoe1> papyromancer: che
[04:36] <_jason> jayr168: what filesystem?
[04:36] <apokryphos> NewUSER: download the Ubuntu ISO and partition off some space for Ubuntu, and make sure you install the bootloader to the MBR (it will specifically ask). Then it'll dual-boot fine.
[04:36] <heyjoe1> !tweaking
[04:36] <ubotu> from memory, tweaking is at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=89491 for speeding up the boot process.
[04:37] <rnd_null> when ever i try to turn on sound in games that require GL, the computer "freezes" how do i fix that?
[04:37] <apokryphos> NewUSER: alternatively, if you have a partition manager (i.e. partition magic) you might want to partition before you boot Ubuntu
[04:37] <bobby> new Ubuntu [Linux]  user here ... need to ask question about changing my keyboard from USB to regular PS2 can anyone help? ... please
[04:37] <jayr168> vfat filesystem
[04:37] <_jason> ubotu: tell jayr168 about vfat
[04:37] <ynze> ok busy....
[04:37] <jayr168> mount under /mnt/docs
[04:37] <_jason> jayr168: pay attention to the table about permissions in the middle of that wiki page
[04:37] <NewUSER> I have the ubuntu cd
[04:38] <rnd_null> ubotu: tell rnd_null about sound
[04:38] <NewUSER> How do i do it wit the cd
[04:38] <jayr168> thanks
[04:38] <Matic`Makovec> NewUSER, usually, you have to put the cd into the cdrom drive
[04:38] <apokryphos> NewUSER: so just boot into Ubuntu. It has a partition manager that's available before the setup.
[04:38] <Matic`Makovec> and restart he machine
[04:38] <fiveiron> ok
[04:38] <bobby> new Ubuntu [Linux]  user here ... need to change my keyboard from USB to regular PS2 can anyone help? Trying but don't know how ... please
[04:39] <bobby> I have looked in forums, but they explain about keyboard mappings
[04:39] <bobby> the only way that I am sure the problem is going to be fixed is if I reinstall Ubuntu
[04:39] <fiveiron> 90% of the times i try to upgrade something i get an error from apt-get "Error reading from server.  Remote end closed connection"
[04:39] <bobby> but I am sure there must be an easier way
[04:40] <apokryphos> bobby: I'd presume that it would be fine if you just plugged in the ps/2 mouse in now, and disconnected the usb one.
[04:40] <heyjoe1> chuckyp: i 'tweaked' ubuntu and now internet and sound dont work. any ideas on where to start to repair it?
[04:40] <bobby> I tried that, rebooted the machine
[04:40] <bobby> but the keyboard didn't work
[04:40] <apokryphos> bobby: does the actual keyboard definitely work?
[04:40] <bobby> by, keyboard, I meant the new PS2 keyboard didn't work
[04:40] <heyjoe1> chuckyp: i cant see how i couldve done anything destructive
[04:40] <bobby> yes, I have 2 machines, one with Win XP on it and the PS2 keyboard works on it
[04:41] <Managu> bobby: silly question, but did you plug the keyboard into the right slot?  I.e. the keyboard slot and not the mouse slot?
[04:41] <bobby> yes .... I made sure it was connected in the right slot
[04:42] <apokryphos> bobby: ok, then just reconfigure your X and specify that you're using a ps/2 keyboard, then restart x
[04:42] <bobby> does ubuntu have some sort of plug and play functionality like windows/
[04:42] <fiveiron> anyone else having problems getting updates?
[04:42] <bobby> perfect ... thats what I was looking for ... now how exactly can I reconfigure X-windows?
[04:42] <bobby> what is the command?
[04:42] <tonyyarusso> bobby: Yes, but PS2 doesn't plug and play (in either).
[04:43] <ynze> oeps... posted it under your name: crimsun.....  sorry
[04:43] <apokryphos> bobby: I'm not sure if it asks on the dpkg-reconfigure. But you can definitely just edit it manually.
[04:43] <crimsun> ynze: cat /proc/asound/cards
[04:43] <apokryphos> bobby: make your keyboard section look a bit like this: http://pastebin.com/609127
[04:44] <apokryphos> bobby: obviously you might want a different XkbLayout/Variant. Mine there is set to GB keyboard.
[04:44] <bigfoot1> how do i record a real audio stream or a windows media stream?
[04:44] <bobby> hmmm.... okay, I will try editing it manually
[04:45] <bobby> can you tell me where exactly the file for X might be that I have to edit manually?
[04:45] <ynze> send it using my name (Ynze).
[04:45] <apokryphos> bobby: heh, silly me. I forget to tell you the file was /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:45] <apokryphos> bobby: just alt+f2 -> gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:45] <bobby> thats soooooooooo much
[04:46] <bobby> I am going to try it right now
[04:46] <apokryphos> bobby: so much what?
[04:46] <apokryphos> bobby: after you've edited it, make sure you save it and then ctrl+alt+backspace and plug in the new keyboard.
[04:47] <bobby> okay ... I have a question though ...
[04:47] <apokryphos> though, really, the keyboard if you just plugged it in it should work fine if it was outside X, for sure.
[04:47] <bobby> I am looking at device manager doesn't list the PS2 keyboard
[04:48] <bobby> even though I have plugged it in?
[04:48] <ynze> crimsun: which program to use now for right installing??? = main problem.
[04:48] <apokryphos> bobby: not sure if it would, yes.
[04:48] <ig-shoot-me> Why is there no shockwave player for linux?
[04:48] <bobby> now, I am cuious if something is wrong with my PS2 port itself
[04:48] <apokryphos> bobby: I thought you said that computer definitely worked with that keyboard?
[04:48] <bobby> yes, my other computer does work with this PS2 keyboard
[04:49] <apokryphos> hm
[04:49] <bobby> but the computer that I am running Ubuntu on is a hand-me-down computer
[04:49] <ig-shoot-me> Why is htere no showckwave player for linux??
[04:49] <apokryphos> bobby: try pressing ctrl+alt+1 and then plugging in the new keyboard. It should work, I'd think.
[04:49] <bobby> and I am not a 100% sure if it the PS2 port works
[04:49] <k31th> is there any way to get a percentage bar wen doing a cp ?
[04:49] <apokryphos> k31th: nope
[04:49] <k31th> ffs
[04:50] <apokryphos> k31th: but you can get verbose output of what it's copying precisely at the time.
[04:50] <ig-shoot-me> mm Why is there no shockwave player for linux????
[04:50] <crimsun> ynze: you may not need to install anything
[04:50] <k31th> yeah
[04:50] <k31th> i know
[04:50] <crimsun> ynze: pastebin the output from ``amixer -c0''
[04:50] <k31th> -v
[04:50] <testimuna>  w have the
[04:50] <testimuna> edg
[04:50] <kingspawn> k31th: heh, I am making such a cp
[04:50] <testimuna> i now have vmware
[04:50] <kingspawn> k31th: but its not working at the moment, heh :)
[04:50] <k31th> ahh
[04:50] <testimuna> can i boot my installed windows on it?
[04:50] <k31th> kingspawn: when it works could you email me?
[04:51] <ig-shoot-me> Hello??? Why is there no shockwave player for linux???
[04:51] <testimuna> do i have to install windows inside vmware??
[04:51] <testimuna> do i have to install windows inside vmware??
[04:51] <ynze> ok hang on...
[04:51] <testimuna> to get t work
[04:51] <chuckyp> ig-shoot-me, dunno maybe macromedia would have an answer

[04:51] <AnsiC> hello
[04:51] <bunta> I found the theme, and installed it
[04:51] <testimuna> or do i have to install it inside vmware?
[04:51] <kingspawn> k31th: just check back here now and then, it will be some time, its just a side project. will be free and open source.
[04:51] <AnsiC> i have installed the software for bluetooth
[04:51] <Zarephath> testimuna: AFAIK vmware is a virtualization software..therefore you can only boot it within the confines of vmware...
[04:51] <bunta> but now.. the writing in Firefox (menu titles etc..) is all black
[04:51] <ig-shoot-me> Whats the channel for macromedia
[04:51] <bunta> I remember (before the format) they were white
[04:51] <ig-shoot-me> because its not #macromedia
[04:51] <AnsiC> the program has detect my TELEFON
[04:51] <apokryphos> ig-shoot-me: of course not, this is Freenode.
[04:52] <AnsiC> my Telefon has detect the bluetooth
[04:52] <bunta> what can I do about this?
[04:52] <testimuna> Zarephath, can i boot my windows i didnt install inside vmware?

[04:52] <ig-shoot-me> Mmf what server then?
[04:52] <apokryphos> ig-shoot-me: I'm pretty sure they don't have an IRC channel/network anywhere, though.
[04:52] <chuckyp> ig-shoot-me, I don't know if they have a channel on freenode
[04:52] <kingspawn> k31th: then its all good
[04:52] <Zarephath> testimuna: sure of course..the installer should have setup grub to give you the choice on boot
[04:52] <ig-shoot-me> -.-  Then someone help me get a shockwave client for linux :P
[04:52] <chuckyp> ig-shoot-me, why not send them an email?
[04:52] <testimuna> Zarephath, how :<
[04:52] <ig-shoot-me> It appears you cant have shockwave for linux >,<
[04:52] <apokryphos> ig-shoot-me: http://www.petitiononline.com/linuxswp/petition.html
[04:53] <tonyyarusso> ig-shoot-me: Google "search irc" I'm-feeling-lucky-style, and check there for a macromedia channel listing.
[04:53] <nexact--> hey all, is there a way to remove the minimize effect under ubuntu ?
[04:53] <ynze> ok. posted the info amixer -c0
[04:53] <ig-shoot-me> I've been there apokryphos'
[04:53] <ig-shoot-me> lol
[04:53] <chuckyp> ig-shoot-me, here is a petition you can sign http://www.petitiononline.com/linuxswp/petition.html
[04:53] <ig-shoot-me> I've been :P
[04:53] <Zarephath> testimuna: Just logout and tell gdm to reboot your computer..when it starts back up there should be a choice for windows, or Ubuntu...
[04:53] <testimuna> but

[04:55] <ig-shoot-me> chuckyp: someone told me i can apt-get something so that i can play chess to view all the graphics, and not in a terminal
[04:55] <chuckyp> !tell AnsiC about bluetooth
[04:55] <AnsiC> System tools -> Bluetooth blabla
[04:56] <Zarephath> testimuna: However if you you have a seperate partiton with windows when you installed Ubuntu then it would have known this and setup the bootloader to boot one or the other
[04:56] <AnsiC> the program has detect my telefon
[04:56] <chuckyp> ig-shoot-me, well do you have x setup?
[04:56] <AnsiC> my telefon has detect the bluetooth
[04:56] <ig-shoot-me> chuckyp: No
[04:56] <chuckyp> ig-shoot-me, i.e. gnome or some other windows environment.
[04:56] <ig-shoot-me> chuckyp: no
[04:56] <chuckyp> ig-shoot-me, well to install a graphical desktop you could sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop which will install gnome.
[04:56] <chuckyp> ig-shoot-me, and xorg
[04:57] <sfar-ubu> apokryphos: with apt-get install <what-do-i-enter-here?> ?
[04:57] <apokryphos> sfar-ubu: fire up synaptic and search for them
[04:57] <sfar-ubu> okay :)
[04:57] <sfar-ubu> smart
[04:57] <DemonHeadx> Hello.
[04:57] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu, what package are you looking for
[04:57] <Zarephath> Hello DemonHeadx:
[04:57] <crimsun> ynze: also, amixer sset 'Front' 60
[04:58] <DemonHeadx> I hope someone can help me. I'm having problems trying out ubuntu on my Mac G5. I am using the Live cd of which was sent in the mail.
[04:58] <ipfw> DemonHeadx: what problems ?
[04:58] <Zarephath> chuckyp: BTW nautilus cd burning is part of the nautilus package..so as a result aeon17x would not have been able to burn multi-session..
[04:58] <ynze> working...
[04:58] <DemonHeadx> When i load it, it says press enter when in doubt. so i did. and it goes to a wite screen and freezez
[04:58] <sfar-ubu> chuckyp: what ever that will fix "configure: error: could not find Python headers"-error.. (i've been told that would be python dev files)
[04:59] <ynze> or not???
[04:59] <crimsun> sfar-ubu: you need python2.4-dev
[04:59] <DemonHeadx> then i tried typing live-power64 and white screen with black tables, but freezes
[04:59] <ipfw> Decker: sounds like it might have issues with your video
[04:59] <crimsun> ynze: did you unmute 'Front' and increase its volume?
[04:59] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu, I assume you are installing something from source?  Did you install the build-essential package?
[04:59] <ipfw> DemonHeadx: might try looking up the video your G5 has, and see if the Distro you are using has support for that
[05:00] <sfar-ubu> chuckyp: yep
[05:00] <ipfw> DemonHeadx: it either may not have proper support built, or might be loading the wrong one -- or settings are incorrect for the write video
[05:00] <GnarusLeo> Does ubuntu have a dyndns client wich updated dyndns.org with my current ip?
[05:00] <fiveiron> anyone else having problems getting updates?
[05:00] <fiveiron> everything is failing on me
[05:00] <DemonHeadx> well its unbuntu breezy badger.
[05:00] <Celestianpower> !tell Celestianpower -about pastebin
[05:00] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu, then perhaps what crimsun suggested will work other wise you can use synaptic to search or apt-cache search <keyword>  to find package
[05:00] <GnarusLeo> !dyndns
[05:00] <ubotu> dyndns is, like, totally, a free service to provide people with canonical hostnames for their dynamic IP addresses, thus making it easier for their personal systems to be reached when they are online. Please see http://www.dyndns.org/ for more information.
[05:00] <ynze> crimsun: yes.....
[05:01] <ipfw> DemonHeadx: There are lots of things that can go wrong with a graphic install, thats why Slack & debian have stayed away from it for so long :P
[05:01] <chuckyp> fiveiron, working for me
[05:01] <crimsun> ynze: and do you hear anything with: ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav'' ?
[05:01] <fiveiron> uh... and my update installer is acting kind of funky now too
[05:01] <kronoz> doess (k)ubuntu install kernel sources by default?
[05:01] <funkyHat> kronoz, no
[05:01] <DemonHeadx> hmm ok, i'll check out the G5 see what VIdeo card it has. But where do i see if its compatible or not?
[05:01] <HappyFool> fiveiron: seems to be ok here. maybe change your repository mirror (in /etc/apt/sources.list)
[05:01] <Whatsisname> ubuntu doesn't, so i wouldn't expect kubuntu to
[05:01] <chuckyp> fiveiron, did you change your sources.list and if not are you using official repos?
[05:02] <ynze> crimsun: YES!!!!
[05:02] <kronoz> how good is it's wireless support?
[05:02] <crimsun> ynze: ok.
[05:02] <Celestianpower> I get this error message when I try to view my floppy's files: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10454 - what's the matter?
[05:02] <ipfw> DemonHeadx: your flavor of Linux should have a HCL (hardware compatibility list) on its website
[05:02] <HappyFool> oh, hang on, i'm getting errors from security.ubuntu.com
[05:02] <fiveiron> this is a brand new fresh install of 5.10, and the only thing i've done is to add the winehq repository through Synaptic
[05:02] <ynze> THANKS!
[05:02] <ynze> CRIMSUN that is!!!
[05:02] <crimsun> np
[05:02] <DemonHeadx> ipfw O.K Thanks very much for you help. I apriciate it.
[05:02] <ynze> does it then work with cd's also?
[05:02] <kronoz> 5.1 == breezy == automatix right?
[05:03] <crimsun> ynze: it should. Try it.
[05:03] <kbrooks> !automatix
[05:03] <ubotu> it has been said that automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[05:03] <chuckyp> kronoz, easyubuntu over automatix
[05:03] <kbrooks> DO NOT use automatix
[05:03] <ynze> ok trying it, by just putting a music-cd in
[05:03] <chuckyp> !easyubuntu
[05:03] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[05:03] <jonolson> kronoz, While most people will say no automatic, I can attest I had no problems with it.
[05:03] <jonolson> automatix*
[05:03] <kronoz> ok
[05:03] <chuckyp> jonolson, did you try easyubuntu?
[05:04] <jonolson> chuckyp, Yes, it doesn't do all that I wanted.
[05:04] <ynze> crimsun: Yes. Works fine with CD!!! thanks again
[05:04] <kronoz> i'm just looking to possibly install on a family computer, running of kanotix live cd get sold
[05:04] <jonolson> chuckyp, As stable and nice as it was. ;)
[05:04] <kronoz> *old
[05:04] <katarot> hey evryone this sucks got kick of the modem and back on xp on my laptop

[05:04] <nexact> Hey all, Is there a way to remove the minimize animation under Ubuntu ?
[05:05] <AnsiC> At the end of 'start' block add 'rfcomm bind all' <[05:05] <AnsiC>   sudo vi /etc/init.d/bluez-utils
[05:05] <Jelly_> Hi.  I'm on ubuntu.  Im thinking about using easyubuntu or automatix to polish off a lot of customizations for me.  Any opinions about which is preferable?
[05:05] <katarot> anykone here have a dell laptop
[05:05] <jonolson> nexact, heh, just noticed it.  Did you poke around the system preferences?  Windows might be a good bet.
[05:05] <AnsiC> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup
[05:05] <marlun> If Evince is pusing the letters together to much in a pdf document, is there anything I can do about that?
[05:05] <chuckyp> fiveiron, hrm... maybe try resizing the status column?
[05:06] <chuckyp> Jelly_, use easyubuntu
[05:06] <nexact> jonolson, yes and there's no way to disable it, which is completely stupid
[05:06] <jonolson> Jelly_, Most will tell you Easyubuntu, it's stable, and doesn't change anything by default.  But I can attest that I personally have had no problems with automatix.  Just take a look at EasyUbuntu first.
[05:06] <AnsiC> were i must to add 'rfcomm bind all'
[05:06] <AnsiC> ????
[05:06] <ynze> crimsun: I will remember this. Ok its easy and expected, but the right switches.....
[05:06] <jonolson> nexact, No option in windows? or anything?
[05:06] <crimsun> ynze: no need, I'm submitting a patch for it in Dapper.
[05:06] <jonolson> nexact, Interesting.
[05:06] <Jelly_> thanks for the opinons
[05:06] <katarot> i have been trying to get my wireless working with ubuntu for days now any ideas on what else i could try
[05:06] <Jelly_> I am a bit overwhelmed
[05:06] <ynze> crimsun:  :-)
[05:06] <fiveiron> chuckyp:  that actually isnt my main problem, the main problem is that the rest of the packages above that failed with various errors
[05:06] <Jelly_> this is my first new system in years
[05:06] <HappyFool> nexact: in the 'configuration editor', switch on 'reduced_resources' under /apps/metacity/general
[05:06] <jonolson> Jelly_, Haha ;)
[05:06] <chuckyp> Jelly_, automatix changes configs etc... can get you in a jackpot easyubuntu is the preffered way.
[05:06] <jonolson> Jelly_, Well welcome to linux.
[05:07] <GnarusLeo> OMG! I have DynDNS, and I installed a dyndns client called ddclient ... it asked me wich interface it would like for me to use while updating dyndns, so I said: eth0 ... when I ran the script it updated my ip to my internal ip (!) wich is 10.0.0.22 .. how do I make it update my ISP ip?
[05:07] <Jelly_> I've been with linux for 6 years
[05:07] <Jelly_> I just kept the same knoppix install for 2 years
[05:07] <ynze> crimsun; I have to learn a lot more about ubuntu. Also Dapper   :-)
[05:07] <jonolson> Jelly_, ;)  Nevermind.
[05:07] <chuckyp> fiveiron, I would just double check yoru sources.list and then maybe try to update with apt-get from command line.
[05:07] <fiveiron_> chuckyp, here is an example of what i get from the failed packages:  W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gtk+2.0/libgtk2.0-common_2.8.6-0ubuntu2.1_all.deb
[05:07] <fiveiron_>   Error reading from server. Remote end closed connection
[05:07] <Jelly_> I have new distro disorientation
[05:07] <Celestianpower> I get this error message when I try to view my floppy's files: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10454 - what's the matter?
[05:07] <Managu> GnarusLeo: I can't speak to ddclient; "ipupdate" has an option to check an external web server for your real ip address
[05:07] <evil_cow> hi all
[05:07] <jonolson> Jelly_, apt-get is the beautiful tool.  Same with sudo.
[05:07] <evil_cow> does someone use new human icon theme?
[05:07] <Managu> GnarusLeo: it might be beneficial to check the man page
[05:08] <GnarusLeo> Managu, ok, is it easy to use?
[05:08] <jonolson> Jelly_, In case you've never used debian derevitives.
[05:08] <jonolson> Jelly_, Or the big bear, Debian ;)
[05:08] <chuckyp> fiveiron, I would just try again maybe like I say from terminal like sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:08] <Managu> GnarusLeo, not as easy as ddclient, admittedly
[05:08] <nexact> jonolson, i'll google if it's possible somehow
[05:08] <jonolson> nexact, Yeah, that's what was I was thinking.  Doesn't seem like anyone here knows.
[05:09] <GnarusLeo> Managu, but how can linux read my external ip?
[05:09] <fiveiron_> chuckyp, in output of apt-get update:  Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz  Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[05:09] <mbuh> hi
[05:09] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, what type of floppy is it?  like how was it formated?
[05:09] <Managu> GnarusLeo: if the linux box is connected (somehow) to the outside network, the outside network knows your ip.
[05:09] <mbuh> is somebody know how too play windows game on ubuntu?
[05:09] <GnarusLeo> Managu, you mean like my router?
[05:09] <fiveiron_> and i get that gzip error, plus bzip2 errors and md5sum mismatches when i try to update my software packages as well
[05:09] <chuckyp> fiveiron, yeah I would definately double check your sources.list then. Maybe whatever mirror you are using has a problem or they are updating stuff or something.
[05:09] <jonolson> mbuh, Cedega <-- But you have to pay.  Or Wine is your best bet.
[05:10] <chuckyp> !tell mbuh about wine
[05:10] <GnarusLeo> Managu, i have a wireless router connected to my ADSL router ... I think the only one knows it is the ADSL router (ISP) ...
[05:10] <Managu> GnarusLeo: sec
[05:10] <GnarusLeo> Managu, ty
[05:10] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: It was last viewed on a computer running Windows XP
[05:10] <phrowzen> does dapper drake flight 5 use gnome 2.14, does anyone know?
[05:11] <Managu> GnarusLeo: http://checkip.dyndns.org:8245
[05:11] <Jelly_> automatix updates my sources.list,  will that throw off the very nice update manager I see when I log in?
[05:11] <aeon17x> phrowzen: Seems like it.
[05:11] <phrowzen> thanks.
[05:12] <GnarusLeo> Managu, so I will find an option to make ddclient sheck for my ip here?
[05:12] <jonolson> Has anyone gotten 3d accell working with ATI Radeon Xpress 200?  The fixes on the ATI wiki doesn't seem to work unless I did something wrong...which seems unlikely because I just made them into scripts..
[05:12] <Managu> GnarusLeo: "ipcheck" can be setup to read such a web page.  ddclient might have a similar option; I'd read the documentation
[05:12] <AnsiC> root@hostname:/home/user# hcitool scan
[05:12] <AnsiC> Scanning ...
[05:12] <AnsiC> root@hostname:/home/user#
[05:12] <GnarusLeo> Managu, ok, thanks alot
[05:12] <AnsiC> That is Regular ???
[05:12] <flax^^> what program should i use to open .iso files with?
[05:12] <cristian> hello, i would like to know if there is a howto explaining how to make a mirror apt repository for local networks
[05:12] <imc_> hi, is it possible under breezy or dapper and bluetooth to connect to a sidekick to share its mobile internet connection?
[05:12] <cristian> i've been searching for it and i cannot find it
[05:12] <AnsiC> http://www.geocities.com/saravkrish/progs/bluemote/bluetooth.html
[05:13] <imc_> Or anyone using Verizon's EVDO under Breezy or Dapper?
[05:13] <katarot> guys please look at this
[05:13] <katarot> http://pastebin.com/609159
[05:13] <AnsiC> in the page the example return some value
[05:13] <phrowzen> welp i think ima go try upgading to dapper, talk to you later guys
[05:13] <dieman> grmbl
[05:13] <dieman> gnome screensaver sucks
[05:13] <Managu> GnarusLeo, np.  Hope it works
[05:14] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, is there data on it?
[05:14] <jonolson> dieman, What a shame. :)
[05:14] <imc_> Anyone using Verizon's EVDO under Breezy or Dapper?
[05:14] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: Yes
[05:14] <chuckyp> hrm try pmount -t vfat /dev/fd0
[05:14] <dieman> jonolson: it sporadically blanks after a laptop comes back from suspend
[05:14] <katarot> http://pastebin.com/609159 is that ment to happen  of have i done somthing wrong
[05:14] <dieman> imc_: i use it with a EDGE card, but don't know about EVDO
[05:14] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, err mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /some/directory
[05:14] <dieman> imc_: sidekick 'internet' service is not thetherable
[05:14] <imc_> dieman, is that a Tmobile edge card?
[05:15] <dieman> imc_: its on t-mobile service
[05:15] <imc_> Ah, thanks
[05:15] <dieman> imc_: i purchased the card somewhere else
[05:15] <katarot> i havent found anything about that in the wiki
[05:15] <crimsun> dieman: yeah, I have to log out of GNOME and back in to resolve that
[05:15] <ynze> crimsun: (Ynze = enjoing cd music now)
[05:15] <imc_> Okay, and it's like what about 50kbps?
[05:15] <jonolson> dieman, Mmm, there's probably a way to fix that, or just disable the screensaver.
[05:15] <cristian> how can i make an ubuntu mirror for my local network? with autosync
[05:15] <dieman> imc_: i can stream 128kbps mp3 to it on a good day
[05:15] <imc_> Oh!
[05:15] <dieman> imc_: like that pandora.com service through flash works fine
[05:15] <dieman> imc_: as long as your stationary
[05:15] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, yeah sorry don't use pmount to often it would be like pmount -t vfat /dev/fd0 floppy
[05:15] <ynze> (and dinner is served.... hope to speak later again) will stay on channel///
[05:15] <dieman> imc_: if your moving from cell to cell its not that good :)
[05:16] <imc_> dieman, Ahh, that's the rub; I was wondering about train service
[05:16] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, then you should have a /media/floppy with your files in it.
[05:16] <emiliou> voila nem- j'y suis
[05:16] <bigfoot1> how can i make a simple timer job to make a program shut down 30 minutes from now?
[05:16] <nem-> ?
[05:16] <nem-> -fr
[05:16] <sfar-ubu> Hm... "sudo apt-get install python2.4-dev" does not work
[05:16] <jonolson> !tell emiliou about fr
[05:16] <dieman> imc_: i use it on the bus and it works
[05:16] <imc_> thanks dieman!
[05:16] <dieman> imc_: but its not 128kbps 'works' :)
[05:16] <emiliou> ok ok
[05:16] <dieman> imc_: if you can foot the cost of evdo
[05:16] <dieman> imc_: its faster
[05:17] <dieman> imc_: but i've not used the cards personally, so I can't say if they work or not
[05:17] <sedatg> lo people
[05:17] <imc_> right, thank you
[05:17] <chuckyp> !tell bigfoot1 about cron
[05:17] <dieman> imc_: http://mobile.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=06/03/08/2139201&from=rss
[05:17] <dieman> imc_: that may be useful
[05:17] <sedatg> anyone aware of free flash authoring tools available from the repo's?
[05:17] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10456
[05:18] <dieman> imc_: actually, this, rather, what it links to http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/03/08/2138237
[05:18] <NewUSER> Installing from a cd is a nightmare
[05:18] <dieman> imc_: looks like its just ppp
[05:18] <crimsun> dieman: you're seeing #33539
[05:18] <Managu> AnsiC: english doesn't seem to be your first language... perhaps you'd be better off in one of the other language channels?
[05:19] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: i've heard about cron. how do i make a simple command to end/shutdown realplay.bin in 30 minutes? what command?
[05:19] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, okay how did you first try to use the floppy?  Like how did you get your initial error to appear?
[05:19] <AnsiC> jaaaa
[05:19] <bigfoot1> i'm a newbie
[05:19] <AnsiC> my mother language is ITALIAN
[05:19] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: I clicked places > Computer > Floppy
[05:19] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, what is realplay.bin?
[05:19] <knubbe> ravioli rulez
[05:19] <Managu> !it
[05:19] <AnsiC> Managu,
[05:19] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[05:19] <Whatsisname> lasagna > ravioli
[05:19] <AnsiC> :)
[05:19] <katarot> does this mean i have a native driver  http://pastebin.com/609159
[05:19] <AnsiC> :(
[05:19] <dieman> imc_: http://kenkinder.com/evdo-pc5740/
[05:20] <dieman> imc_: that one claims it works under kubuntu
[05:20] <knubbe> pasta pesto > lasagna
[05:20] <katarot> please someone look at that cos im so confused
[05:20] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, hrm...  well try sudo mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /media/floppy
[05:20] <AnsiC> i do not like lasagne and ravioli
[05:20] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: it's the realplayer program. anyway, the point is i want a program that is currently running to close down after X minutes from now.
[05:20] <bigfoot1> AnsiC: then give them to me
[05:20] <GnarusLeo> Managu,
[05:20] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: mount: /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device
[05:20] <GnarusLeo> ipcheck.py: No ipcheck.dat file found.
[05:20] <GnarusLeo> ipcheck.py: Use same command+options ONCE with --makedat to create from DNS lookup.
[05:20] <deizi> unable to lookup ubuntu...
[05:20] <AnsiC> i like: Tortellini con Panna e Prosciutto
[05:21] <GnarusLeo> Managu, and when I added --makedat to the end for the command I used, it just showed me the help screen again
[05:21] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, well you would have to issue somethign like killall realplay  and just put it in cron to do it just this once in 30 minutes
[05:21] <AnsiC> or: Pasta and Salsiccia soffritta con aggiunta di poco olio
[05:21] <AnsiC> no
[05:21] <AnsiC> or: Pasta and Salsiccia soffritta e sugo
[05:21] <dieman> imc_: the one think i like about EDGE is its available more places than EVDO and is faster than 1xrtt
[05:21] <Managu> GnarusLeo: yeah, ipcheck is a bit annoying to set up and use.  Lemme see if I can remember what I did; first, you're using the dynamic-dns service (as opposed to static-dns)?
[05:21] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: but cron works only with "absolute time", yes? Not with "countdown" time?
[05:21] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, like write a simple shelll scrip and just have it killall realplay or something.  THen just set cron to execute that script in 30 minutes form now.
[05:21] <AnsiC> Salsicciao+Tomato+Pasta
[05:21] <dieman> imc_: but where EVDO is available, it will kick the crap out of EDGE
[05:21] <AnsiC> Salsiccia+Tomato+Pasta
[05:21] <GnarusLeo> Managu, never mind ... got it to work .. sorry ;)
[05:22] <imc_> dieman, that was exactly what I was seeking. THANK YOU!
[05:22] <Managu> GnarusLeo: oh, ok, np.  =)
[05:22] <GnarusLeo> Managu, had to put --makedat in the beginning before the options :P
[05:22] <gnomefreak> AnsiC: and knubbe  can you guys/girls take the offtopic talk to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[05:22] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: i don't know how to make a shell script, even a simple one.
[05:22] <dieman> imc_: np
[05:22] <GnarusLeo> Managu, but will this update it frequently? or do I have to make a timer script for this?
[05:22] <AnsiC> ohh good
[05:22] <AnsiC> exist that channell
[05:22] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, yes it works on absolute time.
[05:22] <AnsiC> buahauhuahuahuaha
[05:22] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: can't i just put "killall realplay" directly into the cron file?
[05:22] <AnsiC> Funny
[05:22] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, hrm... there's an easier way to do this.
[05:22] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, no
[05:23] <Managu> GnarusLeo: the latter
[05:23] <dieman> imc_: i'd use evdo if i had the cash, but edge is so much cheaper ($30 vs $50/$80 depending on if you have sprint or verizon already)
[05:23] <knubbe> gnomefreak: you're right. sorry.
[05:23] <imc_> dieman, but if I spend most of my time between NYC and Boston EVDO might work better, but if I'm back and forth to Europe, I could do edge and keep the same equipment. Ah, tis a bit of a pain in te ass!
[05:23] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: please advise
[05:23] <GnarusLeo> Managu, the latter?
[05:23] <Managu> GnarusLeo: ipcheck only does stuff when you run it.  I made a small script and put it into my /etc/cron.hourly
[05:23] <dieman> imc_: yeah
[05:23] <dieman> imc_: you can get edge cards on ebay that are unlocked
[05:23] <Zardiac> Hi anyone know a software which can create a iso form my cdrom?
[05:23] <imc_> And the company pays so.......Yeah, no clear advantages pop to mond
[05:23] <dieman> imc_: and then just get a prepaid card in europe
[05:23] <dieman> imc_: aha
[05:23] <imc_> Zardiac K3b
[05:23] <dieman> imc_: if the company pays then you could just do roaming ;)
[05:23] <imc_> Yeah, that was the idea
[05:24] <GnarusLeo> Managu, many years since Ive used cron :) if its of no trouble, can you show me the script?
[05:24] <imc_> Well, no, I don't want to rip my company oiff.
[05:24] <dieman> ahh ok :)
[05:24] <Managu> GnarusLeo: sure, lemme grab it
[05:24] <GnarusLeo> Managu, thanks for all so far btw!
[05:24] <imc_> When I was Europe based I had sim cards for Holland, Germany and UK
[05:24] <imc_> And figure I can do the same
[05:24] <AnsiC> root@hostname:/home/user# hcitool scan
[05:24] <AnsiC> Scanning ...
[05:24] <AnsiC> root@hostname:/home/user#
[05:24] <dieman> imc_: i know execs who don't bother to find sim cards cause its a hassle ;)
[05:24] <Celestianpower> chuckyp: "mount: /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device"
[05:24] <dieman> imc_: best place so far for me was china
[05:24] <Celestianpower> was the response
[05:24] <imc_> Oh, yes?
[05:24] <dieman> imc_: they sold you sim cards before you even cleared customs/immigration
[05:24] <AnsiC> is normall that do not return some address
[05:24] <AnsiC> ?
[05:24] <imc_> Nicve!!
[05:24] <dieman> imc_: and took $USD
[05:24] <imc_> Sure thing
[05:24] <dieman> imc_: and it was resonable
[05:25] <Managu> GnarusLeo, http://pastebin.com/609178
[05:25] <imc_> I think EDGE might be it because I like the flexibility
[05:25] <AnsiC> Managu,
[05:25] <bigfoot1> can i put more than one line (of command) into my crontab file?
[05:25] <GnarusLeo> Managu, ty
[05:25] <imc_> dieman, you use a sidekick?
[05:25] <AnsiC> your bluetooth work????
[05:25] <dieman> imc_: nope
[05:25] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, ok i'm not really sure then I haven't had a floppy drive in ages maybe someone else might be more knowledgable
[05:25] <dieman> imc_: i've got a old ericsson t39m
[05:25] <Celestianpower> Okay
[05:25] <Managu> GnarusLeo: I'd point out that the directory you do the make-dat stuff in is important (I did it in /root)
[05:25] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, I wouldn't put killall in there i'm looking for a different way to do it.
[05:25] <Managu> AnsiC: sup?
[05:25] <dieman> imc_: going to move to a new phone later this year
[05:25] <imc_> Ah. I was wondering if sidekick had a python VM
[05:25] <GnarusLeo> Managu, of course ..
[05:25] <Celestianpower> I get this error message when I try to view my floppy's files: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10454 - what's the matter?
[05:25] <dieman> imc_: either one of the next iterations of the sidekick or something else
[05:25] <imc_> I'm at that point right now....
[05:25] <dieman> imc_: depending on what gets UMA
[05:25] <AnsiC> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup
[05:26] <dieman> gotta run though, need to go take a shower so we can go grocery shopping
[05:26] <AnsiC> i did not understand the second part of that page
[05:26] <Managu> AnsiC: I struggled with bluetooth stuff at one time.  But I haven't done any of that recently, sorry =(
[05:26] <imc_> Thanks dieman, have a great day
[05:26] <NewUSER> I keep getting an error unable to install base system

[05:28] <GnarusLeo> Managu, where should I put the script? Should I just make a file?
[05:28] <manolo> ah
[05:28] <manolo> ok
[05:29] <_jason> deizi: what do you do to get that?
[05:29] <gnomefreak> saif: go into the settings and on the general tab you should see a hope page slot delete whats in there and put what you want homepage to be
[05:29] <heyjoe1> !tweaking
[05:29] <Managu> GnarusLeo, make a file, set it to executable, and put a copy in /etc/cron.hourly
[05:29] <GnarusLeo> Managu, and what should I call the file :)
[05:29] <ubotu> I guess tweaking is at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=89491 for speeding up the boot process.
[05:29] <deizi> i try to connect networking...
[05:29] <Managu> GnarusLeo, the name doesn't matter
[05:29] <GnarusLeo> Managu, not the .<whatever> either?
[05:30] <concept10> anyone here run fluxbox or something similar? I need to cut resources on my desktop
[05:30] <Managu> GnarusLeo, I'm sorry?
[05:30] <rightcoast> I'm having a hard time getting wpa working, I am fairly sure I did everything right, and did set it up with Woody a year or so ago
[05:30] <GnarusLeo> Managu, just "pico /etc/cron.daily/ipcheck" ? And put it there?
[05:30] <rightcoast> I have a pastebin of the supplicant conf if that can help
[05:30] <_jason> concept10: fluxbox is in the universe repository
[05:30] <mbuh> I have cedega 4.3.deb pakacges , can i install it without pay it?

[05:31] <Spde> what is wrong whit the command: find . -name -exec chmod 555 "*" {} ; ???
[05:31] <Managu> GnarusLeo: that'd probably work, aye.  Might be "sudo pico /etc/cron.<interval>/ipcheck"
[05:31] <Managu> GnarusLeo: I doubt mortal users can write to /etc/cron.daily
[05:31] <rodrigonicolodi> ola..pessoal..boa tarde
[05:31] <GnarusLeo> Managu, agreed .. thanks again
[05:31] <_jason> Spde: what do you want it to do?
[05:31] <_jason> !pt
[05:31] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) ou #ubuntu-pt (/j #ubuntu-pt) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[05:31] <saif> gnomefreak, i know,i have m y homepage set to personalized google! but it doesn't show! it shows me the arizona thing! i donno y!
[05:31] <Managu> GnarusLeo: np, good luck
[05:32] <Spde> _jason: change the permission for all files in the folder and subfolders to 555
[05:32] <tanath> _jason: i tried that, and it didn't work :/
[05:32] <saif> gnomefreak, that's when it starts, but if i click on home, i get the right 1! the link is in a desklet,
[05:32] <clem_yeats> Spde : chmod -r ...
[05:32] <Spde> clem_yeats: ?
[05:33] <bigfoot1> i'd like to set a cron job that will say "Hello" in a terminal. What command should i use?
[05:33] <_jason> tanath: explain exactly what you mean by ``that''
[05:33] <saif> gnomefreak, ok, i guess it's because the command is set to "firefox %u" ?
[05:33] <tanath> _jason: what it says here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions?action=show&redirect=AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[05:33] <clem_yeats> Spde : chmod -R 555 directory
[05:33] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, i'm not figureing anything out other than cron maybe this question would be better answered in #linuxhelp they are pretty good at this stuff over there.
[05:33] <_jason> tanath: it says a lot of things there, did you edit the options that the fat partition mounts with?
[05:33] <tanath> _jason: yes
[05:34] <clem_yeats> I'm not sure wheter it's -r or -R
[05:34] <_jason> tanath: did you unmount and remount?
[05:34] <gnomefreak> saif: that is not the homepage that is the line that makes ff your default browser in system>preff?sessions
[05:34] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, you would just echo Hello
[05:34] <_jason> clem_yeats: -R
[05:34] <GnarusLeo> Managu, ok, made the script .. can I test it? how do I know Ittl work? :)
[05:34] <Spde> clem_yeats: hmm dosnt it change only yhe folders?
[05:34] <tanath> _jason: er, i did a remount
[05:34] <Sonium> I have a the with vmware network bridge on ubuntu. After I run vmware-config.pl and it tries to load the bridge my system freezes. The last thing the syslog says is Mar 18 16:49:11 localhost kernel: [4295473.073000]  bridge-wlan0: is a Wireless Adapter
[05:34] <Sonium> Mar 18 16:49:11 localhost kernel: [4295473.073000]  bridge-wlan0: already up. Any Idea?
[05:34] <clem_yeats> Spde : no, all files
[05:34] <_jason> Spde: changes everything, be sure you want to make all the files executable
[05:34] <chuckyp> Who was trying to load there windows from an installed partition in vmware?
[05:35] <_jason> tanath: paste what your fstab line looks like
[05:35] <tanath> _jason: arg. it didn't work actually, 'cause something's using it :p
[05:35] <_jason> tanath: oh
[05:35] <saif> gnomefreak, sorry got disconnected, removing the %u in the link fixed it, but what is this %u?
[05:35] <tanath> _jason: no wonder
[05:35] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: the echo hello command in crontab won't work
[05:35] <manolo> alguno espaol?
[05:35] <_jason> !es
[05:35] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[05:35] <tanath> _jason: why do commands never give errors?!
[05:35] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: isn't cron the only way to do this, as you had thought?
[05:35] <Spde> _jason: ok thanks
[05:35] <gnomefreak> saif: close ff and click a link let me know if ff opens the link
[05:36] <AnsiC> 00:0D:88:AC:F9:1B
[05:36] <Celestianpower> So nobody knows how to help me?
[05:36] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, I can't think of another way but like I say I'm sure if you ask in #linuxhelp you will get the proper way to do it.

[05:36] <saif> gnomefreak, u mean click a link in some other app?
[05:36] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, the crontab way doesn't sound right to me i'm sure there is a better way and they will definately know how.
[05:36] <gnomefreak> saif: click www.aim.com for me let me know if ff opens it
[05:36] <chuckyp> !tell AnsiC about paste
[05:37] <tanath> _jason: there's been a number of times where something didn't work and should have given an error, but didn't. any idea why?
[05:37] <saif> no, nothin happened!
[05:37] <clem_yeats> bigfoot1 : to do what ?
[05:37] <gnomefreak> saif: xchat?
[05:37] <tanath> _jason: like trying to remount
[05:37] <AnsiC> That page about bluetooth is not english
[05:37] <_jason> tanath: don't know about that
[05:37] <AnsiC> is Africanish
[05:37] <quent-g3> lo
[05:37] <saif> gnomefreak, yes!
[05:37] <GnarusLeo> can anyone please ping my using console? wtf? :P Suddenly I couldnt ping myself! :P
[05:38] <gnomefreak> saif: cntl+left click on link
[05:38] <quent-g3> anyone have a idea how to add window maker to "choose session" in the gdm?
[05:38] <chuckyp> AnsiC, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup  <<< that page?
[05:38] <bigfoot1> clem_yeats: well, first, i want cron to say "hello" to me in a terminal. I tried "echo hello" but it doesn't work. The main thing I would like to do is to have a now-running program to shutdown/close at a certain time
[05:38] <gnomefreak> quent-g3: install it
[05:38] <quent-g3> i did
[05:38] <tanath> _jason: well, thanks
[05:38] <saif> gnomefreak, i go the link disabled in the menu, and open in browser and copy link, open in browser didn't do anything!
[05:38] <quent-g3> i compiled it from source
[05:39] <_jason> tanath: np
[05:39] <quent-g3> cuz apt get dont work
[05:39] <gnomefreak> saif: im thinking put the %u or whatever it was back in there
[05:39] <clem_yeats> bigfoot1 : you can put a killall name_of_the_program in your cron
[05:39] <_jason> quent-g3: you should probably try to fix apt-get first, what happens with apt-get?
[05:39] <gnomefreak> quent-g3: what do you mean it doesnt work
[05:39] <quent-g3> it says that the packahe it's obsolete
[05:39] <AnsiC> exatly chuckyp
[05:39] <chuckyp> clem_yeats, I thought there was a way to run a program for a set amount of time?
[05:39] <quent-g3> well i cant paste cuz it's in italian
[05:39] <saif> gnomefreak, i dont think it has anything to do with it, because that is just an link from panel!
[05:39] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell quent-g3 about repos
[05:40] <bigfoot1> clem_yeats: can i have more than one command in my cron?
[05:40] <Managu> GnarusLeo: oops, sorry, was watching TV
[05:40] <AnsiC> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup
[05:40] <bigfoot1> clem_yeats: how can i get cron to say hello to me?
[05:40] <GnarusLeo> Managu, no problem :) just wondering how I could test to see if it works
[05:40] <saif> gnomefreak, i think i will need to change the default app, because in thunderbird when i click on a link it opens mozilla!
[05:40] <clem_yeats> bigfoot1 : well.. you'd have to set the display I guess...
[05:40] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, did you take a second to read the links ubotu gave about cron?
[05:40] <_jason> quent-g3: what is the package name?
[05:40] <gnomefreak> saif: the default app is in system>preff>sessions
[05:40] <Managu> GnarusLeo: if it's executable (i.e. chmod +500 <filename>), I'd try running it. "sudo /etc/cron.daily/filename"
[05:41] <clem_yeats> bigfoot1 : see... you don't run cron from a console.. so it doesn't have any default output..
[05:41] <Managu> GnarusLeo: That should tell you if the script is sound
[05:41] <GnarusLeo> Managu, no errors, maybe it worked :) Thanks
[05:41] <chuckyp> clem_yeats, he could use wall or write bigfoot1 Hello to do it.
[05:41] <Managu> GnarusLeo: if that works fine (you should see a log file in the directory it was processing)
[05:42] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: yes
[05:42] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: yes, i read the ubotu link on cron
[05:42] <manolo> hola
[05:42] <manolo> alguien?
[05:42] <Managu> GnarusLeo, then whenever it has something to say, the primary user will get a mail.  For example, when it thinks it's time to change your ip address
[05:42] <X3n0n> hi! I have a pci radio card. can i use it in ubuntu?
[05:42] <clem_yeats> hmmm... in C or Java... it'd be easy to fork, thread and kill with a timer.. but you'd need to code a bit.
[05:42] <GnarusLeo> Managu, thanks again ... btw, can I ask of one more favour? :P I cant ping myself .. can you? either use gnaleo.ath.cx or 80.203.115.33
[05:42] <Managu> GnarusLeo, sec
[05:43] <manolo> alguno espaol
[05:43] <clem_yeats> I'll do a man wall as soon as the match is over :)
[05:43] <_jason> bigfoot1: what are you trying to do?  (sorry just started following now)
[05:43] <chuckyp> clem_yeats, wall won't work.
[05:43] <icez> is there a file to add options to the automatic modprobing of network cards (wireless)? /etc/modprobe.d/ seems to contain only the other ones.
[05:43] <Managu> gnarusleo: ping works fine; dns lookup agrees with ip address.
[05:43] <GnarusLeo> Managu, cron guys have really been busy! Remember I had to set my timer manually and all 5-6 years ago :)
[05:43] <clem_yeats> oh no.. the man wall will be for my personnal education..
[05:43] <bigfoot1> _jason: hi. While I'm gone to bed, I'd like a certain now-runinng program to close down at a certain time
[05:43] <GnarusLeo> Managu, really .. ok .. cant ping my external ip myself though :) Thanks again
[05:44] <Managu> gnarusleo: heh, the fun of anacron.  G'luck
[05:44] <_jason> bigfoot1: everyday or something?
[05:44] <bigfoot1> _jason: just once
[05:44] <ezech> hi
[05:44] <bigfoot1> _jason: think of it as a "sleep timer"
[05:44] <bigfoot1> _jason: in 10 minutes from now
[05:44] <deizi> ping ubuntu doesn't work
[05:44] <_jason> bigfoot1: one way to do it would be to make a script that runs the command, sleep for the time you want, then kills it
[05:44] <clem_yeats> a timer..
[05:44] <saif> gnomefreak, didn't find anything in sessions for firefox! i opened prefered applications
[05:45] <gnomefreak> yeah there im sorry
[05:45] <_jason> bigfoot1: and by sleep I mean the script, not you :)
[05:45] <saif> gnomefreak, the default is set to firefox, with this command firefox -remote "openurl(%s,new-tab)"
[05:45] <AnsiC> hcitool scan
[05:45] <AnsiC> Why the command return no output ????
[05:45] <clem_yeats> bigfoot1 : in any language you want to code that in... exec the process.. get its PID, in another thread... sleep for x time.. and kill the PID.
[05:45] <gnomefreak> saif: thats fine
[05:45] <chuckyp> _jason, isn't there a way to run an app for x amount of time?  That he could use.  I just cant remember the name of it.
[05:46] <adamh> Is there a end-user-centered comparison of Totem with the GStreamer and Xine back-ends?
[05:46] <ezech> is that true that ubuntu releases are synced with gnome releases?
[05:46] <bigfoot1> clem, _jason: isn't there a simple one-line command I can simply put into my cron file?
[05:46] <bigfoot1> clem_yeats: i don't know computing languages
[05:46] <ezech> so like the new ubuntu will come with most current gnome version?
[05:46] <saif> gnomefreak, weird, what to do, to get links to open!
[05:46] <_jason> bigfoot1: why would you put it in cron if you don't want to do it regularly?
[05:46] <clem_yeats> bigfoot1 : I'm  sure there is.. but I don't know any.
[05:46] <adamh> ezech: Yes, Ubuntu releases come a couple of weeks after GNOME releases.
[05:46] <chuckyp> ezech, no
[05:46] <_jason> chuckyp: probably, but I never came across it
[05:47] <sorush20_> could someone send me the code of conduct
[05:47] <GnarusLeo> Managu, im really sorry for this ... but could you please as well check my vncserver? I tried connecting to it but got a strange error, maybe its some LO issue ... gnaleo.ath.cx -7000 (if password request occurs, its successfull)
[05:47] <gnomefreak> saif: open ff and click edit than prefferences than go to general tab and type in www.whatever page you want.com or net close and restart ff
[05:47] <clem_yeats> look in google for launchers.. timer.. etc.
[05:47] <adamh> ezech: Ubuntu 6.04 will come with GNOME 2.14
[05:47] <ezech> ok, thanks for info
[05:47] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell sorush20_ about coc
[05:47] <Celestianpower> I get this error message when I try to view my floppy's files: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10454 - what's the matter?
[05:47] <gpled> trying to find an mp4 player so i can watch nerdtv.  anyone know of a package?
[05:47] <Celestianpower> (Sorry to repeat myself)
[05:47] <clem_yeats> bigfoot1 : there might also be a timeout option in the prog you're running.... never know
[05:48] <miro> exit
[05:48] <_jason> bigfoot1: something like command; sleep 10m; pkill command;, would probably do
[05:48] <_jason> someone check me on that
[05:48] <chuckyp> Celestianpower, what does your fstab look like are you able to paste that?  /etc/fstab
[05:49] <Vincent0ne-> hey all
[05:49] <gnomefreak> ok bbl i need to get some stuff done today
[05:49] <mac__> hi
[05:49] <gpled> what do you use to view mp4?
[05:49] <bigfoot1> _jason: how do i find the command name?
[05:49] <AnsiC> some Decent Guide about bluetooth
[05:49] <AnsiC> please not wiki
[05:49] <_jason> bigfoot1: how do you usually run what you are trying to run?
[05:49] <Vincent0ne-> mac__, do u know where u get more packages for unbuntu as im new to unbuntu linux
[05:50] <fiveiron> where does ubuntu store the .deb's it downloads through apt-get?
[05:50] <cshields> greetings!  anyone have the url for the developer etiqutte policy?
[05:50] <ubuntu_kip> how do i add users
[05:50] <saif> gnomefreak, yes, i did that, it works now, it seems the desklet i have set the homepage to arizona.edu! if i run ff from anywhere else other than the desklet it shows the right homepage
[05:50] <_jason> fiveiron: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[05:50] <rightcoast> ubuntu_kip, adduser user
[05:50] <ubuntu_kip> !users
[05:50] <ubotu> ubuntu_kip: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:50] <clem_yeats> AnsiC : what's your pb with bluetooth ?
[05:50] <fiveiron> _jason: thx
[05:50] <bigfoot1> _jason: well, this time, i ran it via terminal. the name was "realplay". But in the system monitor applet, it's called realplay.bin. so i'm a bit confused
[05:50] <ubuntu_kip> rc is there a visual way
[05:51] <IFlyGTi> I can't get the Ubuntu Breezy box I just set up to play my mp3's from the Windows server I have here in the house. If I copy them locally to the drive, I can play them fine, any ideas?
[05:51] <saif> gnomefreak but what i dont understant now, is y are links opened in mozilla, even though i set prefered application to be ff
[05:51] <rightcoast> ohh i don't know that
[05:51] <rightcoast> heh
[05:51] <AnsiC> pb?
[05:51] <runedude> hey all
[05:51] <_jason> bigfoot1: so run it as realplay and pkill it as realplay.bin, (there is probably a better way to do this)
[05:51] <ubuntu_kip> an easy way to add user
[05:51] <AnsiC> clem_yeats,
[05:51] <sorush20_> guys the coc doesn't say anything about using the ops command and being kicked or banned..
[05:51] <bigfoot1> _jason: it's already running. so what should i do?
[05:52] <AnsiC> hcitool dev   return  00:0D:88:AC:F9:1B
[05:52] <flax^^> how di i get my microphone working?
[05:52] <_jason> so do you just want to kill it in 10 minutes now?
[05:52] <runedude> im having a small problem:  failed in buffer_read(fd): files list for package `libglut3': Input/output error
[05:52] <runedude> any ideas guys?
[05:52] <flax^^> do*
[05:52] <rightcoast> ubuntu_kip, system>administration>users and groups
[05:52] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, yes at is the name of the command
[05:52] <Vincent0ne-> do u know where u get more packages for unbuntu as im new to unbuntu linux as it seems to install small amounts
[05:52] <runedude> happens to about any package i try to install.
[05:52] <Vincent0ne-> or list of packages
[05:52] <_jason> sorush20_: see the irc rules
[05:52] <_jason> !ircrules
[05:52] <ubotu> you are advised to read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcRules
[05:53] <bigfoot1> _jason: well, it WAS 10 minutes. but now it's more like 1 minute. 8-)
[05:53] <_jason> bigfoot1: heh
[05:53] <bigfoot1> _jason: but let's say it's still 10 minutes
[05:53] <clem_yeats> AnsiC : what are you trying to do ??
[05:53] <bigfoot1> _jason: please advise if it's 10 minutes
[05:53] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: tell me pls about "at" command
[05:53] <IFlyGTi> I tested with the Kororaa LiveCD and it plays mp3's from my Windows server just fine, so it's gotta be something in the Ubuntu setup, Samba or something but I'm at a loss as to where to check.
[05:53] <runedude> anyone ? heh
[05:53] <katarot> help please
[05:53] <katarot> This procedure requires you to have first compiled and rebooted on a new kernel
[05:53] <_jason> bigfoot1: well do this in a terminal just so you see what is going on: sleep 5s; echo hi, if you want 10 minutes you do 10m
[05:53] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, i'm trying to read the correct syntax for your situation jsut give me like 30 seconds
[05:54] <AnsiC> clem_yeats, send file to my telefon
[05:54] <gpled> is their no mp4 player for ubuntu
[05:54] <clem_yeats> AnsiC : you need to use kbtobexclient
[05:54] <baquero22> someone know what packages do i need to install for ghThumb???
[05:54] <fiveiron> #$!^$#^^$#!
[05:54] <fiveiron> why the heck wont these files download
[05:55] <fiveiron> this is ridiculous
[05:55] <bigfoot1>  sleep 5s; echo hi in terminal works nicely
[05:55] <fiveiron> i take the url that apt-get is using to fetch a package, manually use wget, and i can download it just fine
[05:55] <bigfoot1> but can you put a sleep command in cron?
[05:55] <clem_yeats> lol bigfoot1...
[05:55] <_jason> bigfoot1: you can...
[05:55] <fiveiron> anyone have any idea why that would be happening?
[05:55] <lordpau> quit
[05:56] <lordpau> exit
[05:56] <bigfoot1> _jason: i thought cron works with absolute time.... you know... the first 5 fields
[05:56] <lordpau> end
[05:56] <Stormx2> So whats ubuntu+2 gonna be called?
[05:56] <_jason> bigfoot1: sure, is that what you want?  To kill blah at some specified time every day or month or whatever?
[05:56] <IFlyGTi> Is there any reason my mp3s won't play from my Windows file server on my Ubuntu box?
[05:56] <ptlo> stormx2: Nobody kNows  yet :-)
[05:57] <baquero22> how to fix my radar map???
[05:57] <fiveiron> can someone help me?
[05:57] <Stormx2> ptlo: Perky Penguin ftw
[05:57] <bigfoot1> _jason: well, i don't really need a "repeat" function. just a one-time thing.
[05:57] <AnsiC> clem_yeats, device selectors
[05:57] <bigfoot1> _jason: kinda like the Sleep funcion on TVs.
[05:57] <AnsiC> there is nothing
[05:57] <_jason> bigfoot1: what do you see as the problem with this method?
[05:58] <baquero22> noome care about that radar map heh!!!
[05:58] <_jason> bigfoot1: (referring to using sleep)
[05:58] <clem_yeats> AnsiC : make sure your phone has bluetooth on, has a bluetooth name, and has discovery set to ON
[05:58] <bigfoot1> _jason: well, i just don't understand the exact command/line to put in cron. You are talking about cron, arent' you? Or maybe you were just talking about terminal!!! Oh, yes you were!
[05:58] <GnarusLeo> can anyone please see if they can get to my password login with VNCviewer? its gnaleo.ath.cx port 7000
[05:58] <bigfoot1> _jason: sorry.
[05:58] <bigfoot1> _jason: your solution is brillian
[05:58] <bigfoot1> t
[05:58] <bigfoot1> no need to mess with cron
[05:58] <gpled> IFlyGTi: what player are you using?
[05:58] <bigfoot1> _jason: i think i undrestand you now
[05:59] <ubuntu_kip> is a diferent user can use a different them?
[05:59] <AnsiC> the telefon find a device "hostname-0"
[05:59] <IFlyGTi> XMMS or Totem.
[05:59] <ubuntu_kip> theme*
[05:59] <AnsiC> Applications / Bluetooth Manager
[05:59] <_jason> bigfoot1: I don't know about brilliant, but I think it gets the job done... sorry for not making it clearer, cron wasn't involved :)
[05:59] <ubuntu_kip> can a diferent user can use a different theme
[05:59] <AnsiC> that program find my telefon
[05:59] <IFlyGTi> gpled, they play fine if I copy them to the local drive but do not play across the network.
[05:59] <bigfoot1> _jason: if you are not talking about involving cron, then your method is problem-free... it's simple and get's the job done.
[05:59] <bigfoot1> _jason: nice!
[05:59] <gpled> IFlyGTi: i know sometime when saving mp3s in windows, pleope accedently turn on the drm checking stuff
[06:00] <IFlyGTi> gpled, there's no DRM on my stuff.
[06:00] <bigfoot1> _jason: thanks!
[06:00] <IFlyGTi> I hate DRM.
[06:00] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: here's the simpler method 8-)
[06:00] <ubuntu_kip> jason
[06:00] <ubuntu_kip> can a diferent user can use a different theme
[06:00] <z3r0c00l30> hello
[06:00] <bigfoot1> that you were looking for
[06:00] <Vincent0ne-> is there anywhere i can find list of available packages to install on to unbuntu with apt-get as in new to this version after installing it some packages want with the cd
[06:00] <gpled> IFlyGTi: you will know if that is the case, because the will not play on another windows box eather
[06:00] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: what's with linuxhelp? they are rather quiet
[06:00] <clem_yeats> VincentOne : sudo apt-get update
[06:00] <IFlyGTi> gpled, they play everywhere.
[06:01] <IFlyGTi> gpled, except across the network from the server storage drive on the Ubuntu box.
[06:01] <clem_yeats> VincentOne : and then see in Adept (KDE) or Synaptic (gnome) for upgradable packages
[06:01] <baquero22> so noome know at least a channel name to go ask about my radar map??? loll
[06:01] <ubuntu_kip> !theme
[06:01] <IFlyGTi> gpled, I used the new Kororaa LiveCD to test and it plays them fine across the network.
[06:01] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, okay
[06:01] <fiveiron> there we go
[06:01] <_jason> bigfoot1: you can try #bash too
[06:01] <fiveiron> appears i had to manually download the perl upgrade for most of my updates to work
[06:02] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: can "at" beat this?
[06:02] <bigfoot1> _jason: please tell me more about bash?
[06:02] <bigfoot1> _jason: stop. you're making me a nerd. 8-)
[06:02] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, you would type in a terminal without quotes of course "at now + 30 minutes"  then hit enter It will take you to a > prompt
[06:02] <gpled> IFlyGTi: have you used vlc?
[06:02] <fiveiron> vlc rules
[06:02] <IFlyGTi> gpled, no, I haven't. I prefer xmms for music.
[06:03] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, then you enter the command you want run in 30 mintues i.e. "killall realplayer.bin"  no quotes of course.  THen hit ctrl+d will take you back to prompt then in 30 minutes it should run.
[06:03] <fiveiron> amarok for music, vlc for vids
[06:03] <gpled> hoping vlc works for me.  trying to find something that can play mp4
[06:03] <fiveiron> vlc does
[06:03] <GnarusLeo> vlc playes everything :)
[06:03] <fiveiron> yep... :)
[06:03] <IFlyGTi> gpled, I've already tested other distros and THEY play the mp3s fine from the server, it's only Ubuntu that does not.
[06:04] <IFlyGTi> The Kororaa LiveCD also connected to my server with less fuss.
[06:04] <IFlyGTi> So I think it's a Samba issue somehow.
[06:04] <baquero22> welll Mplayer is doing better playing corrupt files
[06:04] <gpled> cool. vlc worked
[06:04] <gpled> funny. when i asked. no one new of a mp4 player
[06:05] <gpled> knew
[06:05] <clem_yeats> but do corrupt files deserve to be played  ?
[06:05] <clem_yeats> only kidding of course :))
[06:05] <IFlyGTi> I'm sorta still looking for my next desktop replacement as I don't want to run Vista.
[06:05] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, guess you could do it either way
[06:05] <baquero22> well if the corrupt file is you making it up with ur ex....
[06:06] <gpled> welp, off to watch my interview with bob kahn
[06:06] <IFlyGTi> If Ubuntu is going to be problematic playing my media from my server then it's not really a good desktop replacement for me as I store everything on the server drives.
[06:06] <bigfoot1> _jason: Oh, I wasn't understanding again. You were referring me to the bash chatroom. Thank you!
[06:06] <baquero22> im sure u dont care about the corruption
[06:06] <baquero22> loll
[06:06] <bigfoot1> _jason: i thought you were suggesting that a "bash" command would do things. then i saw the # sign.
[06:06] <chuckyp> _jason, which way do you think?
[06:06] <R3linquish3r> How can I get my Volume keys on my Keyboard to work in KDE?
[06:06] <Pedrolito_> is it possible to install compiz/xgl on Breezy Badger?
[06:07] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: i'll copy your "at" advise to my notes
[06:07] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: thank you sir.
[06:07] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, np at is just a way of schedualing jobs at a set time for one occurance rather than using cron.
[06:07] <clem_yeats> Pedrolito_ : tricky.... 'd rather wait for dapper.
[06:07] <warpzone> morning! hey, is anybody here using a radeon card with the fglrx drivers?
[06:07] <ubuntu_kip> where do i get gnome-art
[06:07] <ubuntu_kip> !gnome-art
[06:08] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ubuntu_kip
[06:08] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, and that way its set int he background instead of sleep where sleep actually holds up a terminal.  At just sits inteh background waiting untill that time to do the job.
[06:08] <IFlyGTi> Pedrolito_, I tried it the other day and cratered my test box.
[06:08] <fiveiron> this is ridiculous
[06:08] <IFlyGTi> Pedrolito_, looks like it's really meant for the Dapper Drake release.
[06:08] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, but either way works.  As you can see there are many ways to do things in linux.
[06:08] <Pedrolito_> too bad, I'd really like to see this in action
[06:08] <IFlyGTi> Pedrolito_, download the Kororaa LiveCD with the xgl demo on it.
[06:09] <IFlyGTi> Pedrolito_, it's impressive.
[06:09] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: thanks for pointing out that sleep hogs the terminal
[06:09] <tazer> ubuntu 5.10 newly installed: I have 2 disk i just plugged in the computer, formatted with NTFS and with data on it that i want to keep. My plan is to move the data around, format the disks with ext3, and then move the data back. How do i make the disk accesable, what should i write on /etc/fstab? thanks.
[06:09] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, heres an excellent article
[06:09] <newbie1canoby> hello
[06:10] <warpzone> pardon, is anybody here using a radeon card with the fglrx drivers?
[06:10] <linuxdoesnthatem> Ok, I'm about to lose my mind here
[06:10] <fiveiron> bad header line, md5sum mismatch, error reading from server.... can SOMEONE help me get my software upgraded?
[06:10] <linuxdoesnthatem> can someone help me?
[06:10] <linuxdoesnthatem> :(
[06:10] <ubuntu_kip> where do i get gnome-art
[06:10] <g0dchild> ls
[06:10] <g0dchild> do'h
[06:10] <fiveiron> ubuntu_kip: art.gnome.org
[06:10] <bigfoot1> i sometimes take a look at the systems monitor applet/program. if i see that some programs are running in "virtual memory" this means that it's saving/wrtiing to hard drive and not to RAM, yes? This means I should get more RAM, yes?
[06:10] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, well it doesn't have to hog the terminal you could hit ctrl+z then type bg to background the sleep command you entered then it would be in the background.
[06:10] <ubuntu_kip> caqnt find it
[06:10] <g0dchild> and here i thought i was in a term
[06:10] <linuxdoesnthatem> I'm trying to share a folder ona a SUSE machine
[06:10] <linuxdoesnthatem> running KDe
[06:10] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: you're good
[06:10] <linuxdoesnthatem> with my Ubuntu box
[06:10] <linuxdoesnthatem> they're both connected to the same router
[06:10] <Pedrolito_> IFlyGTi, cool, thanks
[06:11] <g0dchild> guys, i think i'm somewhere close to b0rking the system
[06:11] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, not sure if that would work though but just a thought.
[06:11] <g0dchild>  i wasnt able to configure my network devices in normal boot
[06:11] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: yes... i'd be interested in the article
[06:11] <g0dchild> so started in safe-mode
[06:11] <chuckyp> bigfoot1, http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_intro/sect_04_04.html
[06:11] <bigfoot1> sugoruyo: hello on
[06:11] <g0dchild> how'do i put things back in order then? please?
[06:11] <IFlyGTi> Pedrolito_, you're welcome.
[06:11] <g0dchild> !networking
[06:11] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, g0dchild
[06:11] <IFlyGTi> Damn this is annoying.
[06:11] <fiveiron> can someone explain to me why I can manually download packages all day from the url that i copy out of my terminal that was output by apt-get saying it can't download it????
[06:11] <IFlyGTi> If I copy the files locally, they play, if I have them on the server they don't.
[06:12] <jahshua> hello
[06:12] <g0dchild> !network
[06:12] <ubotu> This refers to a group of interconnected computers. The computers must be capable of transferring data to form a true network--you can't just weld a bunch of computers together.
[06:12] <bigfoot1> chuckyp: thanks. it looks interesting
[06:12] <g0dchild> !safemode
[06:12] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, g0dchild
[06:12] <linuxdoesnthatem> !ssh
[06:12] <IFlyGTi> fiveiron, have you updated your repositories and such?
[06:12] <ubotu> ssh is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto, or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdvancedOpenSSH
[06:12] <jahshua> i have a problem/question .. i have just installed ubuntu but i wasent prompted to make a root password during the install .. what do i do ?
[06:12] <sugoruyo> i'm having real bad a$$ problems installing linux on my machine
[06:12] <VladimirBG> _jason, Hi I was here an houre ago, I was having problems with expert install, and I did what ubuto told me, and I still can't access administarive apps
[06:12] <IFlyGTi> jahshua, you use the "sudo" command.
[06:12] <jahshua> but
[06:12] <concept10> anyone know what that ubuntu based music (sequencing, vsti's) project is called? I saw the wiki the other day but cant remember
[06:12] <jahshua> whats my pass?
[06:13] <fiveiron> IFlyGTi: you mean apt-get update, or something different?
[06:13] <newbie1canoby> hello
[06:13] <jahshua> i havent seet one
[06:13] <sugoruyo> seems to be connected to the BIOS's handling of P-ATA and S-ATA devices
[06:13] <g0dchild> _jason, - hi there again - what ought I to do now that I've managed to get the NICs in working condition in safe mode?
[06:13] <Tempest2k> the pass to the user you created during install
[06:13] <g0dchild> will it work the same in normal boot now?
[06:13] <jahshua> so my su pass is the same as my login pass?
[06:13] <linuxdoesnthatem> OK, ubuntu hates me
[06:13] <yornik> yes
[06:13] <linuxdoesnthatem> *mad*
[06:13] <jahshua> thats odd..
[06:14] <jahshua> ok thanks
[06:14] <jahshua> :)
[06:14] <iXce> hmm i've a strange issue with my gnome, when i first open a menu it only show a few entries, i've to scroll to check the other, and when i reopen the menu all entries are there without scrolling
[06:14] <Tempest2k> shud be try it
[06:14] <g0dchild> linuxdoesnthatem, patience :0
[06:14] <linuxdoesnthatem> this is killing me
[06:14] <linuxdoesnthatem> two hours, still no dice
[06:14] <iXce> is there a way to prevent this please :) ?
[06:14] <linuxdoesnthatem> All I want to do is move files from one machine to another
[06:14] <linuxdoesnthatem> it shouldn't be this difficult
[06:15] <linuxdoesnthatem> I'd like to use ssh
[06:15] <chuckyp> !tell linuxdoesnthatem about scp
[06:15] <chuckyp> !scp
[06:15] <ubotu> hmm... scp is A way to copy files securely using ssh.  <file> <username>@<ipaddress>:<DestinationDirectory>
[06:15] <linuxdoesnthatem> problem is, I'm using a router
[06:15] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, or you could use sftp
[06:15] <linuxdoesnthatem> sftp?
[06:15] <newbie1canoby> how do i change permission for my hd.I want files from hd1 windows and be able to copy or move them to linux but i cant
[06:15] <chuckyp> !sftp
[06:15] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, chuckyp
[06:16] <dbzdeath> linuxdoesnthatem: just use ssh ... you don't need to do port forwarding
[06:16] <jahshua> hey fellas thats not working, my user pass isnt giving me su priviliges
[06:16] <dbzdeath> well
[06:16] <dbzdeath> scp
[06:16] <linuxdoesnthatem> and I do that how?
[06:16] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, sftp <username>@<ipaddress>
[06:16] <VladimirBG> I have problem with 5.10, I did an expert install and I can't acces any administative apps, can anyone help me?
[06:16] <warpzone> newbielcanoby: use sudo chmod
[06:16] <linuxdoesnthatem> I'm an utter n00b
[06:16] <Spde> Can someone help me hide folders frome all other then there owners in proftpd? How do i do this?
[06:16] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, will get you ftp access on the remote machine
[06:16] <stjepan> hello
[06:16] <Tempest2k> what command are you trying to run as su ?
[06:17] <newbie1canoby> thanks but what would the rest of the command be sudo?
[06:17] <jahshua> im just typing su and then entering my pass
[06:17] <stjepan> what partitioning scheme do you recommend? one partition, or separate partitions for /var, /usr, /home etc.?
[06:17] <chuckyp> VladimirBG, what do you mean access administrative apps?
[06:17] <chuckyp> !tell VladimirBG about sudo
[06:17] <Tempest2k> do like
[06:17] <IcemanV9> linuxdoesnthatem: scp <file> <username>@<ipaddress>:<DestinationDirectory>
[06:17] <warpzone> newbielcanoby: its "sudo chmod ### 'whatever the directory is' "
[06:17] <linuxdoesnthatem> ok
[06:17] <chuckyp> !tell newbie1canoby about ntfs
[06:17] <warpzone> newbielcanoby: where the three numbers represent permissions
[06:17] <linuxdoesnthatem> this is gonna sound stupid
[06:17] <newbie1canoby> thankyou guys
[06:17] <VladimirBG> i go into System -> administration and anything there refuses to work
[06:17] <Tempest2k> sudo nano /etc/fstab (RTN) then enter pass
[06:18] <linuxdoesnthatem> but how do I find out what my IP addys are?
[06:18] <warpzone> newbielcanoby: google it and you'll see what the numbers should be
[06:18] <linuxdoesnthatem> I'm used to windows ipconfig
[06:18] <Spde> Anyone has an ide how do hide folders that user downt own in proftpd??
[06:18] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, well you can ifconfig
[06:18] <linuxdoesnthatem> cool!
[06:18] <linuxdoesnthatem> :)
[06:18] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, ifconfig=ipconfig but you can actually configure devices with it.
[06:18] <IFlyGTi> !tell IFlyGTi about samba
[06:18] <VladimirBG> I cant set up my modem or anything, while live cd works ok!
[06:18] <warpzone> newbielcanoby: for now I would say "sudo chmod 755 your_mount_folder"
[06:19] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, you may need to enable ssh on whatever box you are trying to get files off of.
[06:19] <linuxdoesnthatem> so even tho I'm using one of those bogus IP addys (192.etc...) it'll work?
[06:19] <fiveiron> this is asinine... i am having to manually update all my packages
[06:19] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, are the computers both on the same network? or is this over the internet?
[06:19] <Spde> Anyone? =(
[06:19] <linuxdoesnthatem> they're both hooked to my router
[06:19] <fiveiron> what application does apt-get use to download files?
[06:19] <fiveiron> wget?
[06:20] <linuxdoesnthatem> so I guess they're on the same network
[06:20] <IcemanV9> linuxdoesnthatem: oh yea. it'll work. i have two laptops connected to the router. :)
[06:20] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, then yes the internal ips will work.
[06:20] <linuxdoesnthatem> :|
[06:20] <linuxdoesnthatem> ok
[06:20] <linuxdoesnthatem> lemme try it
[06:20] <VladimirBG> chuckyp, I cant set up my modem or anything, while live cd works ok! I can't use anything in system -> administration
[06:21] <Nogimics> is seveas.ubuntulinux.nl (83.160.7.26) down?
[06:21] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, But in the future if you need to figure out your external ip but it woldn't apply here you could browse to www.whatismyip.com  will tell you.
[06:21] <bigfoot1> anybody here used vsound before?
[06:21] <chuckyp> VladimirBG, why can' tyou use them because of the password?
[06:22] <RichardP> Hi, just installed 5.10 and I seem to be missing a processor in my dual proc system.  mdesg says "WARNING: NR_CPUS limit of 1 reached. Processor ignored."
[06:22] <VladimirBG> chuckyp, they just won't start!
[06:22] <RichardP> is this a limit in ubuntu or should i be looking elsewhere?
[06:22] <VladimirBG> chuckyp, they start loading and just dissapear!
[06:22] <RichardP> ie should i have done something else during the install process?
[06:22] <chuckyp> VladimirBG, They should i dunno thats goof maybe restart x ctrl+alt+backspace then if it asks you for a password just enter your user password.
[06:23] <IcemanV9> RichardP: i believe you need to install a new kernel that will use 2 cpus; i am not sure where the doc is
[06:23] <chuckyp> RichardP, You probably are running the i386 kernel.  what type of cpus do you have?
[06:23] <VladimirBG> chuckyp, I've had the same problem in 5.04, and I log in normaly
[06:23] <ipfw> where does Ubuntu put the scripts that fire up on boot by default ?
[06:23] <Stc> hello
[06:23] <VladimirBG> it's not the pass
[06:23] <fiveiron> what application does apt-get use to download files?
[06:23] <RichardP> chuckyp: celeron 550s, dmesg does detect them and then disables one as shown above
[06:24] <Stc> why  xserver-xorg-driver-ati don't exist ?
[06:24] <chuckyp> VladimirBG, i dunno maybe in terminal killall gnome-panel and see if that fixes it after the panel reloads
[06:24] <ipfw> Like, the dir that symlinks to the ones in /etc/init.d and anything linked runs at boot ...
[06:24] <chuckyp> RichardP, do you know if those use the 686 arch?
[06:24] <linuxdoesnthatem> so how do I know if it's copying
[06:24] <Kanalal> can someone tell me how to mount my ntfs windows partition (i only need read only access)
[06:24] <Far^Side> hello, I wonder if it's possible to restart the USB subsystem, without having to restart my computer? Because, sometimes when I connect my USB SD card reader to my Natural Keybard Pro's built in USB hub, the keyboard stops working, and the "lsusb" program just hangs, and displays nothing. Then I can't connect new USB devices. My already connected USB mouse still works though.
[06:24] <linuxdoesnthatem> it hasn't returned an error yet
[06:24] <linuxdoesnthatem> :S
[06:24] <RichardP> chuckyp: pretty sure they do
[06:24] <Nogimics> is seveas.ubuntulinux.nl (83.160.7.26) down?
[06:25] <RichardP> chuckyp: yes, based on PII arch so yes, 686
[06:25] <chuckyp> RichardP, okay hold up getting you the right package
[06:25] <RichardP> chuckyp: thanks
[06:25] <IcemanV9> linuxdoesnthatem: check if it is there on the other box :)
[06:25] <ds[de] > Kanalal: do you know what device your harddrive is (in /dev) ?
[06:26] <linuxdoesnthatem> I am
[06:26] <linuxdoesnthatem> it's a large directory
[06:26] <linuxdoesnthatem> and I keep refreshing at the target
[06:26] <Kanalal> ds[de] : hold on lemme check
[06:26] <linuxdoesnthatem> but I don't see it yet
[06:26] <linuxdoesnthatem> hrm
[06:26] <azadder> is there a better option than nvu when it comes to ftp/editors in the synaptic package manager?
[06:27] <ds[de] > Kanalal: you can find out by typing sudo fdisk -l
[06:27] <ds[de] > then search for the entry that has "HPFS/NTFS" in it
[06:27] <iXce> which version of gcc should i compile ther kernel with?
[06:27] <Kanalal> ds[de] : its /dev/hda1
[06:27] <fiveiron> is there a way i can manually download the contents of a repository source?
[06:27] <linuxdoesnthatem> gah
[06:27] <linuxdoesnthatem> connection timed out error
[06:27] <IFlyGTi> My network settings don't give me any Windows network ID settings like all he FAQs say it should. How do I get them to show up?
[06:27] <linuxdoesnthatem> :(
[06:28] <Vladimir_BG> anyone else had a problem with applications in system -> administration refusing to work after expert install?
[06:28] <ruben_gonc> hi
[06:28] <ds[de] > Kanalal: open /etc/fstab in a text editor of your choice (remember to make a backup first)
[06:28] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, do you have ssh enabled on the computer you are trying to connect to?
[06:28] <Spde> Anyone using proftpd? i need some help
[06:28] <linuxdoesnthatem> I think so
[06:28] <linuxdoesnthatem> :|
[06:28] <warpzone> pardon, is anybody here using a radeon card with the fglrx drivers?
[06:28] <bigfoot1> how come the name of the command i use to run a program is different from when i kill it. realplay VS. realplay.bin?
[06:28] <linuxdoesnthatem> again, how do I find out?
[06:28] <ruben_gonc> why isn't possible to install mtscorefonts package??
[06:29] <Managu> iXce, 3.x.x
[06:29] <chuckyp> RichardP, try sudo apt-get install linux-image-686
[06:29] <Kanalal> ds[de] : ok ive got it
[06:29] <linuxdoesnthatem> it's a SuSE box
[06:29] <linuxdoesnthatem> running KDE
[06:29] <chuckyp> RichardP, that will get you the 686-smp kernel
[06:29] <ds[de] > Kanalal: now you need to make a folder (if you haven't already done so) where you want to mount your partition to
[06:30] <iXce> thanks Managu, i'm compiling wth 3.4.* and just saw that some of the kernel modules of my current kernel were compiled with gcc 4.x.x
[06:30] <RichardP> chuckyp: thanks, trying to get networking setup now :)
[06:30] <IcemanV9> linuxdoesnthatem: ssh to suse box; if you cannot connect, then it is not enabled
[06:30] <tom__> can someone please tell me about the breezy resipratories
[06:30] <ruben_gonc>  why isn't possible to install mtscorefonts package??
[06:30] <Kanalal> ds[de] : ok done, can the folder be in any location (ie home, desktop)?
[06:30] <ds[de] > Kanalal: yep
[06:30] <linuxdoesnthatem> sorry bout that misclick
[06:31] <ds[de] > Kanalal: now you add a line to /etc/fstab that's looks like this: /dev/hda1 /your/folder ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
[06:32] <bfish> Could anyone tell me where to find a good guide on NAT-ing?
[06:32] <ds[de] > Kanalal: the umask=0222 means that you can read and execute files on this partition, but you can't write to them (recommended for ntfs drives)
[06:32] <fiveiron> does anyone know what app apt-get uses to download files?
[06:32] <bfish> fiveiron: /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:32] <Kanalal> ds[de] : ok thanks, will i have to reboot for it to take effect?
[06:32] <ochsi> hallo
[06:32] <baquero22> whats the last version of ubuntu??
[06:33] <ds[de] > Kanalal: of course not ;) just safe /etc/fstab, then type sudo mount -a
[06:33] <ds[de] > Kanalal: this should do the trick
[06:33] <fiveiron> bfish: no, i'm talking about the actual application that it uses to physically download data
[06:33] <dbzdeath> how do you set the session startup stuff?
[06:33] <chuckyp> baquero22, well there breezy is latest official dapper is latest testing.
[06:33] <Seveas> Nogimics, yes - use a mirror
[06:33] <fiveiron> nm though i'm just forcing it
[06:33] <baquero22> breezy right?????
[06:33] <GnarusLeo> Where do I put files that apache shows when someone's http'ing to my ip?
[06:33] <ochsi> hallo
[06:33] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, like thepages?
[06:34] <GnarusLeo> chuckyp, yep :) the .html files or whatever
[06:34] <Sutabi> Is there a way to check for wifi networks with a  wifi card?
[06:34] <ochsi> yes
[06:34] <spacey> GnarusLeo: /var/www by default
[06:34] <Spde> Anyone fancy helping me hide folders that users has no access to in proftpd?
[06:34] <dbzdeath> can someone please tell me how?
[06:34] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, you would have to look at your document root in your apache config but I think its /var/www/html if that exists
[06:34] <chuckyp> dbzdeath, as in what session start up stuf?
[06:34] <Nogimics> Seveas I was using apt-get update
[06:34] <Nogimics> How can I use a mirror with that?
[06:35] <GnarusLeo> theres only a apache2-default map there chuckyp  ... should I create a html?
[06:35] <dbzdeath> chuckyp: http://url.err.no/fLYQ the one it's talking about there
[06:35] <spacey> GnarusLeo: everything you put there shows up
[06:35] <nexus> were are the files that contain the line of code to execute your windows manager
[06:35] <Seveas> Nogimics, put different lines in /etc/apt/sources.list 
[06:35] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, nah let me find default folder hold up
[06:35] <spacey> GnarusLeo: just try
[06:35] <spacey> chuckyp: /var/www is the default
[06:35] <baquero22> so breezy is the one available for download now? the one they are sending everyone?
[06:35] <Nogimics> Seveas ok, thanks
[06:36] <ipfw> baquero22: yes, I downloaded Breezy ISO
[06:36] <noonex> nexus: are you trying not to use metacity?
[06:36] <nexus> where would the config file containing exec kde be.
[06:36] <Kanalal> ds[de] : that worked, thanks
[06:36] <fiveiron> ok.  does someone know where i could find some help with getting any packages upgraded using the tools ubuntu provides, which arent working?
[06:36] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, did you check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP  ??  that tells you about the configs and stuff.
[06:36] <ds[de] > Kanalal: no problem
[06:37] <tom__> i had to reinstall ubuntu and it is only 5.04 what is the resipratories for ubuntu so i can add them to the apt file
[06:37] <chuckyp> dbzdeath, are you running dapper
[06:37] <GnarusLeo> chuckyp, thanks! maybe Ill go to PHP nuke afterwards :)
[06:37] <dbzdeath> chuckyp: yup
[06:37] <chuckyp> dbzdeath, this is a better howoto
[06:37] <chuckyp> !tell dbzdeath about xgl
[06:37] <iis-darmstadt> hi folks
[06:38] <chuckyp> dbzdeath, but you put them in .gnomerc in your user's home directory just make sure after the gnome decorations you have an & that page ubotu sent you shows you how to do it with echo
[06:38] <dbzdeath> chuckyp: i'm not using gnome.. i'm using xfce
[06:38] <noonex> nexus: those are in your kdm / gdm / xdm config files usually in /etc/xdm/xdm.conf    or you can specify a per use one in ~/.Xsession
[06:39] <iis-darmstadt> can someone help me to get firefox 1.5. working on ubuntu, I have downloaded the package and untared it to /opt/ any better suggestions?
[06:39] <chuckyp> dbzdeath, well then you just don't use the gconf line it explains in the howto there. that ubotu sent you.
[06:40] <bigfoot1> how do i know if i need more RAM?
[06:40] <volmarias> Does anyone have any experience with knockd? I'm having trouble getting it to do anything at all.
[06:40] <noonex> if i upgrade from xorg 7.0.0-0ubuntu3 to xorg 7.0.0-0ubutnu18  do i need to recompile my fglrx drivers,    i want to know before i break xgl again :)
[06:40] <iis-darmstadt> I have created a symbolic link to /opt/firefox/firefox in /usr/bin
[06:40] <bigfoot1> Will increasing my Virtual Memory make my computer run smoother?
[06:40] <dbzdeath> chuckyp: i don't suppose you know how to know if it's working?
[06:40] <volmarias> bigfoot1, no
[06:40] <RichardP> chuckyp: heh, ok now the system wont boot, getting a kernel panic: 'VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)'
[06:40] <coregrl> hello
[06:41] <chuckyp> !tell iis-darmstadt about ff1.5
[06:41] <ds[de] > iis-darmstadt: what seems to be the problem?
[06:41] <Zarephath-away> Hi all..I am running vmware server on another box running breezy....when I look under workgroups I see my wifes pc...but not my Ubuntu PPC machine..what do I need to do to make it visible in WORKGROUP on the win machine?
[06:41] <coregrl> I've installed postgresql on ubuntu dapper..but I dunno on how to let an user to access to it :/
[06:41] <chuckyp> RichardP, hrm...  you can always boot to recover mode or the old kernel from the grub menu.
[06:41] <chuckyp> dbzdeath, know how to what?
[06:41] <chuckyp> dbzdeath, i'll talk to you about it in the xgl room
[06:41] <dbzdeath> chuckyp: k
[06:42] <opter> what's the command to see what version of kernel you are running?
[06:42] <RichardP> uname
[06:42] <chuckyp> opter, uname -r
[06:42] <ds[de] > opter: uname -r
[06:42] <opter> thanks guys
[06:42] <fiveiron> is there a way to update apt-get?
[06:42] <bigfoot1> i'd like to make my old computer run more smoothly. So i'm thinking of having less programs running at one time. In system-monitor, how do i know which program don't need to be running?
[06:43] <volmarias> bigfoot1, google them.
[06:43] <volmarias> If it sounds important, leave it alone.
[06:43] <volmarias> If it doesn't sound important, kill it.
[06:43] <volmarias> If your computer dies suddenly, keep it next time
[06:43] <[BreliC] > volmarias, lol... nice :)
[06:44] <volmarias> Anyway, so no one has any experience with knockd? Can anyone suggest where I should ask?
[06:44] <gopi> What is the link from where I can get the latest Sources.list please ?
[06:44] <christian> how to format using ReiserFS instead of ext3 with warty?

[06:45] <talisein> No word on Dapper yet, eh?
[06:45] <wtflol> hello?
[06:45] <zyga> hello
[06:45] <bigfoot1> How come "memory" and "virtual memorY" for all programs are the same?
[06:45] <zyga> has anyone around installed ubuntu on a mac mini alongside with os X
[06:45] <IFlyGTi> Obviously Ubuntu isn't suited for a Windows network.
[06:46] <volmarias> bigfoot1, google "virtual memory"
[06:46] <wtflol> ubuntu farked up my boot settings, grub wont load right when i reinstall windoze (to play games)
[06:46] <IFlyGTi> What other distro would one reccomend instead so I can go bug them instead.
[06:46] <volmarias> that'll do a good job explaining it
[06:46] <Spde> Anyone using proftpd??
[06:46] <gopi> ping
[06:46] <chuckyp> !tell Spde about anyone
[06:46] <wtflol> how do i set up the boot manager to the windows one?
[06:46] <chuckyp> !anyone
[06:46] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[06:47] <IcemanV9> wtflol:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[06:47] <bigfoot1> http://reiber.org/drupal/node/33 says increasing VMwill help the computer. but you say no. i'm confused
[06:47] <chuckyp> wtflol, what do you mena go back to windows boot manager like removing grub?
[06:47] <baquero22> how to install deb files?
[06:47] <wtflol> both
[06:47] <wtflol> or either
[06:47] <ds[de] > baquero22; sudo dpkg -i bla.deb
[06:47] <chuckyp> !tell baquero22 about dpkg
[06:47] <zyga> I tried installing ubuntu first but then os X installed didn't see the partitions (and the free space)
[06:47] <zyga> I installed os X first and the same thing has happened with ubuntu installer
[06:48] <Spde> Can someone help me hide files in proftpd??
[06:48] <zyga> neither systems sees the free space, are the partitioning schemes incompatible?
[06:48] <bigfoot1> how do i know how much ram i have?
[06:48] <talisein> Isn't there a good Windows-Ubuntu duel boot faq yet?
[06:48] <bigfoot1> and how do i know how much more ram i should get?
[06:48] <chuckyp> wtflol, wwell when you instlal ubuntu it installs grub and you should have an option to select windows from the list when your machine starts.
[06:48] <chuckyp> !tell wtflol about dualboot
[06:48] <IFlyGTi> Is there a "How to log in to a Windows Domain so you can actually use shit?" FAQ?
[06:48] <noonex> bigfoot1: if i understand it correctly, virtual memory is mainly used when you run out of ram, and the machine uses hd space as ram, this action slows things down, but still allows you to run more things, so increasing VM does help, but won't make your machine faster per-say..
[06:48] <GnarusLeo> what are the group of the primary user?
[06:49] <Jhair> noonex: user processes
[06:49] <volmarias> bigfoot1, type "top" at console
[06:49] <volmarias> that provides some useful information, including how much memory you have, and what your VM limit is set to
[06:49] <wtflol> but it doesnt, because i have to delete the windows partition to install ubuntu, and windows install cd, deletes ubuntu when i load that, so i only have one at a time....and this is ubuntu im using right now
[06:49] <gopi> How to see which version of bttv is installed in mine ???
[06:49] <Jhair> noonex: user processes *always* see virtual memory only. virtual<->physical memory translation is managed by the kernel only, AFAIK
[06:50] <Yokalosh> how can i resize the partition that my ubuntu is on? i need space for another os
[06:50] <noonex> Jhair: ah good to know, makes sense
[06:50] <chuckyp> !tell talisein about dualboot
[06:50] <bigfoot1> volmarias. ok. i did top. i think i have 256 mb. how do i know how much more ram i should get?
[06:50] <chuckyp> whoever was asking about the mac http://72.14.203.104/search?q=cache:fJKkJPGyHdkJ:htmini.com/2005/03/30/opentoolsorg-dual-booting-your-mini/+mac+mini+ubuntu+dual+boot&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=5&client=firefox
[06:51] <IFlyGTi> !tell IFlyGTi about windows domain
[06:51] <zyga> chuckyp: thanks!
[06:51] <noonex> if i upgrade from xorg 7.0.0-0ubuntu3 to xorg 7.0.0-0ubutnu18  do i need to recompile my fglrx drivers,    i want to know before i break xgl again
[06:51] <volmarias> bigfoot1, how much ram you SHOULD get is up to you. I'd suggest 512MB min. If you don't know how much memory your machine supports, ask your manufacturer. They usually have information on each model online
[06:51] <volmarias> alternately, figure out what motherboard you have, and look that up.
[06:52] <tritium> noonex: you don't use ubuntu fglxr packages?
[06:52] <zyga> chuckyp: unfortunatly the links are dead, thanks anyway
[06:52] <noonex> tritium: no i built them myself,  i tried the package and it and xgl didn't agree
[06:52] <IFlyGTi> How to I get my Ubuntu box to log into my Windows Domain for authentication purposes?
[06:53] <chuckyp> zyga, hrm.. I know if you search google or the www.ubuntuforums.org you will find somehting.
[06:53] <bigfoot1> volmarias: i'm just wondering whether there's such a thing as too much RAM.
[06:53] <zyga> I think there might be something wrong with either dapper flight 5 or the latest 10.4 os x, many people just install it without problems but I'm stuck at the empty partition table
[06:53] <Eleaf> hii
[06:53] <Eleaf> bigfoot1, how much ram do you have?
[06:54] <tritium> bigfoot1: beyond the address space, yes, but otherwise, heck no ;)
[06:54] <IFlyGTi> !tell IFlyGTi about kerberos
[06:54] <r4zz> never too much ram, though if your slots are all filled up it can have an effect on latency
[06:54] <IFlyGTi> !tell IFlyGTi about windows logon
[06:54] <kanid> bigfoot1, as long as your motherboard can support the amount you put in, bigger is better
[06:55] <NickGarvey> when I do "command && command" are they both done at the same time, or is the first done and then the other one is done
[06:55] <linuxdoesnthatem> ok, how do I find out if I have ssh running on my breezy box?
[06:55] <bigfoot1> Eleaf: i think i have 256 bm
[06:55] <bigfoot1> mb
[06:55] <kanid> ps ax | grep sshd
[06:55] <nexus> my GUI login menu has fvwm on it. i want to change it to fvwm-themes-start. what file do i edit
[06:55] <GnarusLeo> wohoo ... apache, php and mysql is complete :)
[06:55] <heyjoe1> hi, ive just made a king idiot stuffup to my sysv-rc-conf and i was wondering if someone could help me to fix it
[06:55] <iis-darmstadt> !ff1.5
[06:55] <GnarusLeo> !phpnuke
[06:55] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[06:55] <Eleaf> kanid, r4zz well.  When you start getting over 2 GB, it can actually slow down some fsb functions, and slow the speed that the ram connects to the cpu...
[06:55] <ubotu> GnarusLeo: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:55] <GnarusLeo> !php-nuke
[06:55] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, GnarusLeo
[06:55] <Eleaf> bigfoot1, well then, you might want some more...
[06:56] <wtflol> ok, my windows restore cd deletes all partitions when i use it, but ubuntu can only be installed when i delete the windows partition. Grub only loads linux, how can i get grub to stay on when i install windows (gets deleted) or restore the windows mbr?
[06:56] <heyjoe1> hi, ive just made a king idiot stuffup to my sysv-rc-conf and i was wondering if someone could help me to fix it
[06:56] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, 'ps ax | grep sshd'
[06:56] <tritium> wtflol: the installer can resize windows partitions, and automatically setup grub to dual boot
[06:56] <IFlyGTi> wtflol, you need to install Windows first, resize the partition.
[06:56] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, should give you two lines
[06:56] <linuxdoesnthatem> kanid: waht should that output look like?
[06:57] <IFlyGTi> wtflol, then install Linux on the new space.
[06:57] <wtflol> how do i resize?
[06:57] <linuxdoesnthatem> can you cut/paste?
[06:57] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, you should be able just to follow phpnuke or bb or whatever you want to installs directions from their site.
[06:57] <NickGarvey> !dualboot
[06:57] <ubotu> hmm... dualboot is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo
[06:57] <wtflol> yes
[06:57] <bigfoot1> Eleaf: yes
[06:57] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, one with grep in it the other with just sshd
[06:57] <tritium> wtflol: choose the "manually edit partition table"
[06:57] <wtflol> k
[06:57] <ezech> bye
[06:57] <chuckyp> !tell linuxdoesnthatem about ssh
[06:57] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, just follow that to install ssh on the other box you are trying to copy from.
[06:57] <kanid> chuckyp, thx
[06:57] <heyjoe1> if ubuntu wont run, either in normal breezy mode, or in recovery mode, is there any way i can make changes to the sysv-rc-conf?
[06:57] <GnarusLeo> chuckyp, ok ... thanks
[06:58] <NickGarvey> heyjoe1: use a boot cd and mount your linux partition as read write
[06:58] <chuckyp> GnarusLeo, or you can try searching forums or maybe searching the wiki.
[06:58] <kimo> during setup I skipped network setup, how can I restart that now ?
[06:58] <bigfoot1> gnome-cups-icon is for printing, yes? So if i have no printer, i can remove it from running, yes?
[06:58] <GnarusLeo> chuckyp, is it hard?
[06:58] <heyjoe1> nickgarvey_how do i mount my linux partition as read write?
[06:58] <chuckyp> heyjoe1, you disabled something did you.
[06:58] <NickGarvey> heyjoe1: have a live cd?
[06:58] <wtflol> which to use? fdisk or cfdisk?
[06:58] <chuckyp> heyjoe1, boot to cd then chroot to /dev/hdaWhatever
[06:58] <heyjoe1> chuckyp: yeah, you know when you take a multi choice test sometime, u get outta order
[06:58] <obli> How do I watch movies in .bin format under ubuntu? I suspect there's some mounting involved...
[06:59] <chuckyp> heyjoe1, its okay it can be fixed.
[06:59] <kimo> obli: VLC
[06:59] <yamathan> Hey, guys.
[06:59] <heyjoe1> chuckyp: how do i chroot to /dv/hda...
[06:59] <obli> ok, thanks
[06:59] <chuckyp> heyjoe1, like I say boot to the install cd or boot to a live cd mount the drive then chroot to it.  SOrry forget about the chroot /dev/ setuff.
[06:59] <baquero22> hey i open synaptic and it says i have a broken package
[06:59] <baquero22> what is that mean
[06:59] <kimo> during setup I skipped network setup, how can I restart that now ?
[06:59] <heyjoe1> chuckyp: i actually have a install cd
[06:59] <yamathan> I have a little problem with my fglrx drivers.  Big surprise, eh? : P
[06:59] <warpzone> pardon, can anybody help me with azureus probs. installing something else seemed to break it
[07:00] <iis-darmstadt> ds[de] ,  chuckyp sorry, I was away for some minutes, praying... thanks for the hint from uboty chuckyp
[07:00] <kimo> baquero22: apt-get update && apt-get -f install
[07:00] <chuckyp> heyjoe1, okay well you need to boot to the install cd and see if they have a console mode or something like a rescue mode.
[07:00] <heyjoe1> ok ill give it a crack
[07:00] <Zarephath> I have  a usb2.0 external hard drive connected..the install just put /dev/sda in fstab..should this not be sda1 for the first partition on said drive?
[07:00] <yamathan> The REAL problem is that I got VESA to run and get GNOME to function, but now the resolution is too small to click on the Ubuntu packages in the installer windows.
[07:00] <ds[de] > iis-darmstadt, lol np, did it work out?
[07:00] <chuckyp> heyjoe1, then you need to mount your linux partition /dev/hda Whatever the number is then chroot to /mount/wherever you mounted it.
[07:00] <kanid> hey guys, maybe you can help me out
[07:00] <kanid> I have a Logitech MX1000 wireless mouse which has a usb receiver. When I boot my Toshiba Satellite up with the mouse plugged in, everything works just dandy. Exactly like things should be.
[07:00] <NickGarvey> chuckyp: he left
[07:00] <chuckyp> arm
[07:00] <kanid> The problem comes when I plug the mouse in after the system has booted. Once I plug the mouse in I get the following kernel message repeated way too many times:
[07:01] <yamathan> Should I go with VGA temporarily and hopefully get the screen large enough to run the window big enough to click on the Ubuntu packages?
[07:01] <kanid> [4348319.623000]  hub 1-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 1. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[07:01] <kanid> Now, I know the cable isn't bad because the mouse works in ubuntu if plugged in before booting, and it works in gentoo and windows on the same computer. It also works in slackware on a different computer.
[07:01] <linuxdoesnthatem> ok, now how do I start SSH? It looks like it's not running on my box.
[07:01] <linuxdoesnthatem> sshd rather
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> !sshd
[07:02] <ubotu> I heard sshd is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto
[07:02] <Eleaf> linuxdoesnthatem, did you install it?
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> I have no idea
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> I think so
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> don't know for sure
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> am a total n00b
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> and quite slow on the uptake
[07:02] <Eleaf> linuxdoesnthatem, well you have to install it first, it will run the daemon by itsself
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> :S
[07:02] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, check synaptic and make sure the package shows up
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[07:02] <linuxdoesnthatem> yes?
[07:02] <Eleaf> yes
[07:02] <kanid> ok
[07:02] <Eleaf> it is open-ssh server
[07:02] <IFlyGTi> yamathan, perhaps use apt-get to install packages instead?
[07:03] <Eleaf> linuxdoesnthatem, did you install open-ssh server?
[07:03] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, you actually ran that last command right?
[07:03] <linuxdoesnthatem> tried to
[07:03] <linuxdoesnthatem> think I mis-typed the name
[07:03] <kanid> ok
[07:03] <Eleaf> and what happenened
[07:04] <Eleaf> humm
[07:04] <jahshua> hey guys can anyone help me out with the command to change my window manager please  ?
[07:04] <jahshua> i tried xwmconfig
[07:04] <zeR_> I can't get sound in flash on my PC (with opera, FF, epiphany or whatever). i tried the linking-method of the .so-file (from wiki) but no success. has anybody an idea?
[07:04] <linuxdoesnthatem> it said it couldn't find the package
[07:04] <yamathan> I do need some help on this SyncMaster crap.
[07:05] <Eleaf> linuxdoesnthatem, open up synaptic and go "Edit -> Search" and search for ssh,  then install open-ssh server or whatever it is
[07:05] <linuxdoesnthatem> what is synaptic?
[07:05] <linuxdoesnthatem> !synaptic
[07:05] <ubotu> hmm... synaptic is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[07:05] <jahshua> heh
[07:05] <yamathan> My Samsung SyncMaster 930B isn't being autodetected.
[07:05] <jahshua> can anyone help me change my window manager please
[07:05] <flax^^> my sound doesnt work in vlc, any ideas?
[07:05] <yamathan> Unforunately 5.1's "Generic Monitor" only goes up to 1024x760 or something.
[07:05] <kimo> during setup I skipped network setup, how can I restart that now ?
[07:05] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, it's in the "system" menu under administration
[07:06] <eFfeM> hi, installed ubuntu dapper drake, but my clock is one hour off and my timezone is ok, what could this be
[07:06] <chuckyp> linuxdoesnthatem, its openssh-server is the package name so sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[07:06] <yamathan> Without the higher resolutions I can't run ATI's proprietary installer for drivers properly.
[07:06] <yamathan> The damn window cuts off JUST ABOVE the Ubuntu packages I need to install.
[07:06] <chuckyp> yamathan, you can switch your xorg.conf to "vesa" instead of "ati" to get higher res temporarily
[07:06] <flax^^> yamathan, awww, that sucks xD
[07:06] <yamathan> Is there any way to install and/or detect the SyncMaster?
[07:06] <Bonzodog> yamathan: what driver is it using for X?
[07:07] <Bonzodog> I have a syncmaster, and my system doen't know about it
[07:07] <yamathan> Hmm ...
[07:07] <Bonzodog> X does not normally nedd monitor drivers
[07:07] <yamathan> I'm running VESA right now because the ATI doesn't like it much.
[07:07] <yamathan> Yeah, but dpkg-configure xserver-xorg can't detect it properly.
[07:07] <Bonzodog> it's more than likely the ATI graphics card
[07:07] <yamathan> To it, it's "generic monitor".
[07:07] <Bonzodog> so is mine :)
[07:08] <Bonzodog> I have an nvidia though
[07:08] <yamathan> Hmm ...
[07:08] <Bonzodog> and mine runs at a good res
[07:08] <yamathan> Hmm ...
[07:08] <Bonzodog> what graphics card is it?
[07:08] <yamathan> dpkg-config won't let me select the resolutions I want.
[07:08] <chuckyp> yamathan, you can specify the res int he xorg.conf  no need for dpkg-configure
[07:08] <Bonzodog> then it's the graphics acrd
[07:08] <yamathan> I press "enter" at the resolution I want, but ...
[07:09] <baquero22> how to install  libpt-1.10.0 ??
[07:09] <oceandead> press spacebar
[07:09] <baquero22> with the get thing
[07:09] <yamathan> Really now?
[07:09] <yamathan> Seriously?
[07:09] <oceandead> enter is like "ok"
[07:09] <yamathan> Damn.  I've been lead astray.
[07:09] <jahshua> anyone ?
[07:09] <jahshua> can anyone help me change my window manager please
[07:09] <oceandead> spacebar will put the lil *
[07:09] <Eleaf> baquero22, sudo apt-get install libpt-1.10.0 ?  might be named something slightly different (the package)
[07:09] <yamathan> Thanks, Ocean.
[07:09] <Bonzodog> when you run dpkg-configure, you select using spacbar
[07:09] <oceandead> np
[07:09] <yamathan> Oy.  Why didn't I see that?
[07:10] <Oetzi> jahshua: what new one to you want to use?
[07:10] <jahshua> fluxbox
[07:10] <yamathan> At least with VESA right now it's running.  : P
[07:10] <Oetzi> have you installed it?
[07:10] <yamathan> Now I get to reconfigure it properly this time.
[07:10] <jahshua> yes
[07:10] <Oetzi> are you using gdm
[07:11] <yamathan> Well, damn.  I feel like one of those people that look for the "any" key.  ~_~
[07:11] <Bonzodog> jahshua: then it should appear in the sessions menu in gdm
[07:11] <oceandead> dont beat yourself up
[07:11] <linuxdoesnthatem> ok, here goes nothing!
[07:11] <linuxdoesnthatem> banzai!
[07:11] <linuxdoesnthatem> :D
[07:11] <jahshua> where is gdm ?
[07:11] <Oetzi> its the graphical login manager
[07:11] <yamathan> Thanks everyone.
[07:11] <Bonzodog> gdm is the graphical login screen
[07:11] <jahshua> ah ok
[07:11] <jahshua> cool
[07:11] <yamathan> I'll go change it.
[07:11] <Bonzodog> log out
[07:12] <Bonzodog> and click 'sessions'
[07:12] <Bonzodog> you will see 'fluxbox'
[07:12] <jahshua> tanks
[07:12] <Oetzi> Bonzodog: thx for overtaking
[07:12] <GnarusLeo> !sql
[07:12] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, GnarusLeo
[07:12] <Oetzi> ;D
[07:12] <GnarusLeo> !mysql
[07:12] <ubotu> somebody said lamp was 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
[07:12] <jahshua> sorry im used to bsd   :p

[07:13] <Bonzodog> <<---Ubuntu forums team leader
[07:13] <kanid> well, lets try this again:
[07:13] <GnarusLeo> How do I add a user in mysql?
[07:13] <kanid> I have a Logitech MX1000 wireless mouse which has a usb receiver. When I boot my Toshiba Satellite up with the mouse plugged in, everything works just dandy. Exactly like things should be.
[07:13] <Enthusiast78> Hi! Which packages can I install to have ALL of the Gnome artwork installed? (icons, themes, etc.)
[07:13] <kanid> The problem comes when I plug the mouse in after the system has booted. Once I plug the mouse in I get the following kernel message repeated way too many times:
[07:13] <Bonzodog> not used mysql...
[07:14] <kanid> [4348319.623000]  hub 1-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 1. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[07:14] <kanid> Now, I know the cable isn't bad because the mouse works in ubuntu if plugged in before booting, and it works in gentoo and windows on the same computer. It also works in slackware on a different computer.
[07:14] <linuxdoesnthatem> ok
[07:14] <Bonzodog> kanid: that looks like a bug in the hotplug daemon
[07:14] <linuxdoesnthatem> how to manually start the ssh process from the command line?
[07:14] <linuxdoesnthatem> it looks like the install was a success
[07:15] <kanid> Bonzodog, hotplug works for my usb memory stick though
[07:15] <Bonzodog> $sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[07:15] <Bonzodog> to start ssh
[07:15] <_jason> linuxdoesnthatem: it should start on its own after a successful install
[07:15] <Bonzodog> bugs are unpredicatble creatures
[07:16] <linuxdoesnthatem> it reported as fail when I tried to start it
[07:16] <kanid> Bonzodog, indeed
[07:16] <linuxdoesnthatem> dos that mean it's always running?
[07:16] <kanid> Bonzodog, you think I should file?
[07:16] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: echo "CREATE USER 'test'@ 'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';" | mysql -p
[07:16] <linuxdoesnthatem> the grep returned two-lines of output
[07:16] <Bonzodog> linuxdoesnthatem: do a 'ps aux' in the terminal
[07:16] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, then you're good
[07:16] <linuxdoesnthatem> :0
[07:16] <Bonzodog> see if sshd is listed as a process
[07:16] <VladimirBG> how to fix sudo bug?
[07:16] <linuxdoesnthatem> :)
[07:17] <Bonzodog> VladimirBG: elaborate
[07:17] <linuxdoesnthatem> well, now to go back to #suse and figure out how to use fish in konqueror
[07:17] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, you can now ssh into that box
[07:17] <linuxdoesnthatem> :?
[07:17] <linuxdoesnthatem> "/
[07:17] <linuxdoesnthatem> :/
[07:17] <baquero22> how to desinstall this lib? libpt-1.8.3c2 (version 1.8.7-1ubuntu1) is installed.
[07:17] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, what? where do I write that? Just need a user for my php nuke!
[07:17] <GnarusLeo> :)
[07:17] <baquero22> in the console
[07:18] <anstei> baquero: sudo apt-get remove libpt (if libpt is the package name)
[07:18] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: that was the use of the shell-client
[07:18] <Bonzodog> ^^ got there before me :D
[07:18] <Firezip> hi
[07:18] <kanid> Bonzodog, I can't really find anything on this problem I'm having, do you think it would be worth filing a bug?
[07:18] <magnus_> can someone here help me with ubuntu
[07:18] <Bonzodog> kanid: I'm not usre
[07:18] <Bonzodog> *sure
[07:18] <Firezip> I need help setting up a HP Deskjet 3620 printer
[07:19] <Oetzi> if you have an running an apache with php you also can install phpmyadmin
[07:19] <Firezip> It's connected to a windows xp box
[07:19] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, access denied for user (using password: YES)
[07:19] <Bonzodog> Firezip: is it enabled thru samba?
[07:19] <LinuxNIT> is there a way to have sudo not require a password for a select few programs but still require a password for the rest?
[07:20] <Bonzodog> as it would need to be seen as a network printer
[07:20] <Firezip> Umm
[07:20] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: have you set an root password yet for the mysql-server
[07:20] <Spde> Whats the command to change a users group?
[07:20] <Firezip> No I don't think so
[07:20] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, I think so .. yes!
[07:20] <magnus_> can somone here help me with ubuntu?
[07:20] <Meep> Any Input Method gurus online?
[07:20] <Managu> !anyone
[07:20] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[07:20] <Oetzi> then try echo "CREATE USER 'test'@ 'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';" | mysql -p -u root
[07:21] <Bonzodog> magnus_: what the problem?
[07:21] <Spde> how do i change group of a user?
[07:21] <Oetzi> sry i have to go now but i'm back in about 30 minutes
[07:21] <magnus_> how do i install rar?
[07:21] <nitin> guys i blacklisted bcm43xx in dapper and installed ndiswrapper but dmesg shows "loadndiswrapper failed check system log"
[07:21] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: perhaps someone else can help you or you have to wait for me sorry
[07:21] <Firezip> How do I enable my printer through samba?
[07:22] <Bonzodog> magnus_: rar support does exist, but is buggy
[07:22] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, I have lots of time :)
[07:23] <magnus_> can someone pleas help me? how do i unpack .rar ?
[07:23] <ipfw> magnus_: unrar
[07:23] <Bonzodog> magnus_: you need a commandline tool called 'unrar'
[07:23] <magnus_> how do i get that?
[07:23] <Spde> Comon everyone must know how to chage the group of a user? =)
[07:23] <magnus_> ok
[07:23] <magnus_> but where do i find it?
[07:23] <NickGarvey> spde: usermod -G groupname
[07:23] <Firezip> Need Help: My printer is on a LAN connected to a computer running Windows Xp, my question is how do I get Ubuntu to connect to that printer?
[07:24] <magnus_> Bonzodog: where can i find that?
[07:24] <Spde> NickGarvey: where do i specefy the username?
[07:24] <Bonzodog> magnus_: open synaptic and search for it
[07:24] <magnus_> ok...thank you :-D
[07:24] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, I just want to add a user to mysql, so I can use it to use PHP-nuke ...
[07:24] <Bonzodog> it's command line though
[07:25] <Bonzodog> so you run it in a terminal
[07:25] <Firezip> So Deskjet printers aren't really supported?
[07:25] <Bonzodog> Firezip: I'm not sure how you enable the printer over the network
[07:25] <nitin> guys i blacklisted bcm43xx in dapper and installed ndiswrapper but dmesg shows "loadndiswrapper failed check system log"
[07:25] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, and I havent really made a database yet I think :D
[07:26] <magnus_> ok...i see....thank you ;-D
[07:26] <Bonzodog> it would need to be installed ideally on your own system
[07:26] <Firezip> oh.....hmm
[07:26] <Bonzodog> linux has native support for HP printers
[07:26] <Bonzodog> but thru a Windows box could be tricky
[07:26] <GnarusLeo> Does anyone know how I make a database in mysql, and add a user to this one?
[07:27] <Firezip> ok
[07:27] <Firezip> how can I find out the HP printer ip?
[07:27] <Bonzodog> it probably is possible, but I wouldn't personally know how
[07:27] <magnus_> Bonzodog: what is th command?
[07:27] <Bonzodog> unrar < name of file>
[07:28] <magnus_> command not found :S
[07:28] <Bonzodog> or do $unrar --help
[07:28] <Dr_House> hey everyone
[07:28] <anstei> sudo apt-get install unrar ;)
[07:28] <Bonzodog> did you install it off synaptic
[07:28] <Bonzodog> ?
[07:28] <Bonzodog> I once tried to use unrar, but it fscked up
[07:28] <Dr_House> i'm trying to install ubuntu 5.10 but i'm getting an error, "operating system not found" .. anyone know what's up?
[07:29] <magnus_> packadge not....
[07:29] <magnus_> bur how can i ekstrat things then?
[07:29] <Spde> how do i make a group?
[07:30] <ds[de] > magnus_ what about tar?
[07:30] <RichardP> excellent, got smp working at last :)
[07:30] <Bonzodog> tar doesn't like rara files
[07:30] <magnus_> ds[de] : tar?
[07:30] <quent-g3> i have a problem with xpm libs
[07:31] <Bonzodog> rar files are a unique MS only format
[07:31] <quent-g3> anyone have any suggestion?
[07:31] <RichardP> Bonzodog: no they arent
[07:31] <ds[de] > magnus_ didn't know what you were trying to extract so I figured tar might be a good suggestion ;)
[07:31] <RichardP> Bonzodog: i use em a lot on OSX
[07:31] <SpudNik> horray i found a support channel heheh
[07:31] <Bonzodog> yeah, but linux support is buggy at best...best avoided
[07:32] <digits> is evolution still funky if you don't use unstable?
[07:32] <SpudNik> well it cant be any worse than me playing about with it :)
[07:32] <magnus_> but i need to exstrakt som files! so is it anyone here who can help me?!?!?!?!
[07:32] <Celestianpower> Hi Far^Side!
[07:32] <Bonzodog> magnus: have you installed unrar
[07:32] <Bonzodog> ?
[07:32] <magnus_> no...
[07:32] <SpudNik> new to this linux thing, got hold of latest unbuntu, booted with live version, it hates my audigy and ati radeon 9550, can this be fixed, or is it worth it as i kinda like it so far.....
[07:32] <IFlyGTi> OK, this is annoying, I can play streaming audio or local mp3s but not my mp3s on the server with Ubuntu, why?
[07:32] <quent-g3> any suggestion for xpm libs?
[07:33] <magnus_> yes...now i have
[07:33] <Bonzodog> you need to install it
[07:33] <Bonzodog> then issue $unrar <name of file>
[07:33] <Far^Side> Celestianpower, hello
[07:33] <IFlyGTi> I can play them fine with the Kororaa LiveCD.
[07:33] <Celestianpower> :)
[07:33] <robert__> rollin stone
[07:34] <Bonzodog> quent-g3: what are you talking about
[07:34] <robert__> the rollung stone
[07:34] <Bonzodog> xpm libs?
[07:34] <robert__> laberinto
[07:35] <magnus_> ok...how do i use cedega?
[07:35] <Bonzodog> if it's installed, it should be on the menu
[07:35] <magnus_> it is just exstrakted
[07:35] <robert__>  * I'm too lame to read BitchX.doc *
[07:36] <Bonzodog> magnus_: you will need to install it
[07:36] <Panos> Hi! I have a sound problem, can anyone help me?
[07:36] <SpudNik> anyone know if audigy and radeon are compat with ubuntu?
[07:36] <magnus_> how?
[07:36] <Bonzodog> depends what type of file it is
[07:36] <Bonzodog> whats the file name?
[07:36] <magnus_> i found it:P
[07:36] <robert__> laberinto
[07:37] <linuxdoesnthatem> thanks to all of you, it worked!
[07:37] <linuxdoesnthatem> :)
[07:37] <samuel_> hello I installed kde on ubuntu 5.10 but it doesnt seem to show up under 'session' what do I need to do?
[07:37] <kanid> linuxdoesnthatem, no problem, glad it worked for you
[07:37] <samuel_> all the packages downloaded well accept 1...
[07:37] <samuel_> cd burner thing.
[07:37] <magnus_> it is many files .pyo is one of them
[07:38] <yamathan> Hmm ... VESA's running at 1280x900-something now.
[07:38] <yamathan> Much better.
[07:38] <apeitheo> I'm using Breezy, and I'm having trouble with Direct Rendering. I had previously upgraded from Hoary to Breezy (I had direct rendering working before), but now, while it stills says "Direct Rendering: Yes", whenever I try to use something that uses opengl (screensavers, or simply glxgears) it doesn't work, and glxgears says "Illegal operation" What can I do to fix this?
[07:38] <magnus_> Bonzodog: one of them is makefile, but it does not work :S
[07:38] <jgomez> hi,I am new to ubuntu and just installed it in a machine, when I try to run usewr administration it displays an error on the backend script and closes the window, can anyone helpme with this?
[07:38] <Bonzodog> magnus: is that the source for it?
[07:39] <magnus_> i dont know
[07:39] <magnus_> i downloaded it :S
[07:39] <anstei> magnus_, Bonzodog: .pyo is normally a _py_thon _o_bject
[07:39] <IFlyGTi> apeitheo, have you reinstalled your video drivers and changed the appropriate lines in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[07:39] <reduz> Hi Ubuntuers! QUESTION: I've been a since-8-years debian user, but I'm really tired of the distro shipping broken packages/scripts/etc and lately, and the desktop always having some problem. I've been using breezy badger at the office for some months and I'm amazed at how well it works, so my question is.. nowadays should I get Breezy Badger, or Dapper Drake? I dont mind fixing one or two things in Dapper Drake if it's not compleetely ready, but are
[07:39] <reduz>  most packages, or automatix working on it?
[07:39] <Bonzodog> what was the name of the .rar file?
[07:39] <samuel_> hello I used the command to install kde under ubuntu 5.10....and it downloaded all the packages accept one. Kde doesnt appear to show up under session in the login screen.
[07:40] <flax^^> any1 who plays q3 on linux?
[07:40] <magnus_> cedega_5.1_tgz.rar
[07:40] <apeitheo> IFlyGTi, well, I think they're already installed (I'm using the Intel i810 integrated graphics card)
[07:40] <yamathan> q3?  Seriously?
[07:40] <Bonzodog> reduz: you will like Dapper
[07:40] <flax^^> yamathan, yeah
[07:40] <Dr_House> why do i keep getting "error loading operating sytem" error after i install ubuntu 5.10?
[07:40] <Bonzodog> we need experienced debianites
[07:40] <IFlyGTi> apeitheo, I had to installed nVidia specific drivers to make it all work prperly for me.
[07:40] <peterretief> can i update to dapper without downloading a whole new iso?
[07:40] <reduz> Bonzodog: Is it working well enough? I mean, the desktop and all that
[07:41] <Lele_ete> hi, I have a problem with nautils, every time i try to open some file, nautilus crash...anyone knows about this bug ?
[07:41] <Bonzodog> yes, is VERY stable
[07:41] <Bonzodog> I am running it
[07:41] <apeitheo> IFlyGTi, yeah, with the nvidia drivers, it's necessary, but the i810 drivers are open source, so no extra installing should be necessary (license doesn't prevent it from being bundled right with Ubuntu)
[07:41] <Jhair> Lele_ete: breezy? or dapper?
[07:41] <IFlyGTi> apeitheo, ok, then I'm not sure past that.
[07:41] <Bonzodog> magnus_: I'm not sure what to suggest for you
[07:41] <reduz> Bonzodog: good to know, does automatix work on it? because I find it an extreme hassle to have to download all the extra not-in-repo/illegal-in-US/etc stuff by hand
[07:41] <apeitheo> IFlyGTi, thanks anyway
[07:42] <Lele_ete> jhair : breezy
[07:42] <Bonzodog> reduz: no
[07:42] <Bonzodog> automatix DOES NOT work in Dapper
[07:42] <samuel_> Is anyone able to help me?
[07:42] <magnus_> Bonzodog: its a install readme there... 1. unpack cedega_5.1_tgz.rar | 2. copy (in root) etc, opt and usr directories in / | 3. launch cedega and follow instructions | 4. install local update in top menu transgaming
[07:42] <yamathan> Automatix = not-so-good.
[07:42] <samuel_> hello I used the command to install kde under ubuntu 5.10....and it downloaded all the packages accept one. Kde doesnt appear to show up under session in the login screen.
[07:43] <Jhair> Lele_ete: any file? could you take a look at following the bugs? https://launchpad.net/malone/products/nautilus?field.searchtext=crash&search=Search&orderby=-priority%2C-severity
[07:43] <yamathan> For mine, I mean.  AMD64 is not supported, and I've heard weird things about it.
[07:43] <Bonzodog> reduz:  all that stuff is in the multiverse repos anyway
[07:43] <Bonzodog> the mp3 codecs etc
[07:43] <Jhair> Lele_ete: there are reported crashes for *some* files, but not for all...
[07:43] <reduz> Bonzodog: ah :( Well I guess I'll wait a bit for using it, so my next question. Can I install Breezy Badger and then update the system to dapper?
[07:43] <Managu> apeitheo: "illegal instruction" has 2 root causes -- you're trying to run a package compiled for a newer processor (got a REALLY old processor?), or there's some corruption.
[07:43] <SpudNik> is breezy full compatbile with radeon and audigy? booting live seems to live them both dead
[07:43] <reduz> Bonzodog: yeah i'm more concerned about stuff like java (that i can never install properly), video codecs, azureus, etc
[07:43] <Bonzodog> reduz: it's easy to just get synaptic to pull it all down
[07:44] <Bonzodog> all of that works in dapper
[07:44] <apeitheo> Managu, I've an Intel Celeron 266 Mhz
[07:44] <magnus_> Bonzodog: its a install readme there... 1. unpack cedega_5.1_tgz.rar | 2. copy (in root) etc, opt and usr directories in / | 3. launch cedega and follow instructions | 4. install local update in top menu transgaming
[07:44] <ds[de] > what do I need to install so that I can play .wmv videos in ff1.5?
[07:44] <fabs> Hello all
[07:44] <Bonzodog> magnus_: do those instructions make sense to you?
[07:44] <IFlyGTi> I'd really like to be able to play my mp3s from my server, any ideas why Ubuntu won't play anything from my Windows server but will if I copy it FROM the server to the local drive?
[07:44] <magnus_> no
[07:44] <Jhair> ds[de] : mplayer, totem-xine, xine, all should work
[07:44] <apeitheo> Managu, I'm not sure about the second; I simply upgraded from Hoary to Breezy, and it doesn't work any longer. Should I upgrade glxgears and whatnot?
[07:45] <Lele_ete> jhair: I have a crash at any file....I sent a bug report via bug baddy to gnome-bugs.... :-( but I'dont known if they are working on it
[07:45] <Bonzodog> as that is the best explanation of what needs doing
[07:45] <fabs> guys, just a quick help, which is best to use Anjuta or Glade for simple GTK interfaces??
[07:45] <magnus_> i've extracted the files to a map called cedega on my desktop...
[07:45] <Managu> apeitheo, can't say for sure, but that should be plenty new.  Does glxinfo crash?
[07:45] <[crash] > damn highlite
[07:45] <[crash] > ;)
[07:45] <magnus_> more i don't know how to do
[07:45] <ds[de] > Jhair: I installed xine and I can play .wmv videos, just not in firefox :/
[07:45] <reduz> Bonzodog: I dont think the video codecs or sun's java can be in dapper, they can't be redistributed
[07:45] <apeitheo> Managu, nope, glxinfo comes up, and says "Direct Rendering: Yes"
[07:45] <Tortanick> I have a qustion, what is the recomended FTP client?
[07:45] <Tortanick> for hosting that is
[07:45] <Jhair> Lele_ete: could you do a grep -i nautilus /var/log/messages after a crash?
[07:45] <Bonzodog> reduz: the video codecs are
[07:45] <Managu> apeitheo: wouldn't hurt to make sure glxgears is the newest version
[07:46] <apeitheo> Managu, is glxgears its own package?
[07:46] <samuel_> hello I used the command to install kde under ubuntu 5.10....and it downloaded all the packages accept one. Kde doesnt appear to show up under session in the login screen.
[07:46] <ds[de] > Tortanick: are you looking for a ftp server or ftp client? :)
[07:46] <fabs> guys, which is best Anjuta or Glade?
[07:46] <Bonzodog> java needs to be installed from sun
[07:46] <Tortanick> server
[07:46] <Managu> apeitheo, I don't know =(
[07:46] <apeitheo> Managu, Okay, thanks anyway, I'll look into it :)
[07:46] <ds[de] > Tortanick: I don't know about recommended, but proftpd seems to be used alot
[07:46] <jahshua> hey whats the commad name for synaptic to run it from cli
[07:46] <jahshua> i tried synaptic(obviously)
[07:46] <reduz> Bonzodog: Is there any tutorial on how to install Breezy, then upgrade to dapper drake?
[07:47] <Jhair> ds[de] : with mozilla-mplayer installed?
[07:47] <Managu> jahshua: how bout "gksudo synaptic"?
[07:47] <Tortanick> thanks, the files it will host, you don't happen to know witch partition they will be kept in?
[07:47] <Bonzodog> reduz: you know much about linux?
[07:47] <peterretief> how is the ruby - rails support with dapper?
[07:47] <Lele_ete> Jhair : of course...now I'm not on my PC, but when I'll come back to the office I'll do that... if you want I can send you the file generated by bug baddy...
[07:47] <[Warbles] > Ahoy ahoy
[07:47] <magnus_> bonzodog: i've extracted the files to a map called cedega on my desktop...
[07:47] <giggsey> I have a TV Card which uses the bt878 thing, and I've installer tvtime, yet no matter where I have the arial/direction, tvtime keeps with the no signal - UK
[07:47] <Jhair> Lele_ete: oh no no not me, try to use lanchpad.net to report ubuntu bugs to the developers
[07:48] <reduz> Bonzodog: just not about ubuntu.. I mean, i'm not sure if I can change some repo and dist-upgrade in ubuntu
[07:48] <Managu> giggsey oooh, tv cards are fun
[07:48] <giggsey> :P
[07:48] <Bonzodog> yes you can
[07:48] <jahshua>  Managu : thanks
[07:48] <Bonzodog> ubuntu is just debian sid on drugs
[07:48] <Managu> jahshua: np, hope it works
[07:48] <jahshua> yep :)
[07:48] <ds[de] > Jhair; when I try to apt-get install mozilla-mplayer I get error messages about missing dependencies and when I try to apt-get install mplayer it says there's no installation candidate (wrong word?)
[07:48] <Bonzodog> it still works exactly like debian
[07:48] <Lele_ete> Jhair...ok...but it should be a gnome bug...i suppose
[07:48] <[Warbles] > I have a problem: I accidently deleted the /etc/hosts file....now my sudo won't work so i can't get it copied back =\
[07:48] <giggsey> redux: Installer Breezy - edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change every reference of breezy to dapper (remove the CD one), and then apt-get dist-upgrade :P
[07:48] <Spde> how do i see what group a user is in? =S
[07:48] <Jhair> ds[de] : breezy? dapper?
[07:49] <Panos> when I run amarok under gnome I can't hear system sounds. When a song ends all the system sounds are heared together. After that I can't play songs with amarok. 30 seconds must go by because amarok says that there is a gstream error. Please help me
[07:49] <CellarDoor> hello folks
[07:49] <Managu> giggsey: card modules set up correctly?  Getting the "tuner" module right is especially tricky.  In my experience, the autodetect is unreliable
[07:49] <ds[de] > Jhair; breezy
[07:49] <Jhair> Lele_ete: yes, but it is better if you report it through launchpad, I don't think bug-buddy sends those reports to the ubuntu developers
[07:49] <giggsey> Managu: I have no idea :P - how can I tell :D
[07:49] <CellarDoor> anyone got advice on spam filters, or a favorite filter ?
[07:49] <Bonzodog> bug-buddy os for the gnome devels
[07:50] <Managu> giggsey: well, errm, at the risk of looking ignorant, trial and error worked for me.  There's documentation somewhere, lemme see if I can find it
[07:50] <hfern> trying to install * on ubuntu breezy, but when I compile * it keeps complaining that I need a newer libpri. I recompile libpri, but no change.. any ideas, anyone?
[07:50] <Lele_ete> Jhair: ok...on monday I'll send the dump through launchpad
[07:51] <Jhair> ds[de] : those packages are in multiverse... is it in your sources.list?
[07:51] <Spde> One more question that everyone must know =) how do i see what group a user is in?
[07:51] <Jhair> ds[de] : if I understood correctly you already installed mplayer, right?
[07:51] <Managu> giggsey if you rebooted recently, in /var/log/messages, or in maybe even in "dmesg", there should be a line containing "kernel: bttv0: using tuner=xx", or something the like
[07:51] <samuel_>  is the gnome or kde display manager better
[07:51] <Jhair> Spde: id
[07:52] <giggsey> Managu: last reboot was last Sunday when I installed
[07:52] <[Warbles] > I have a problem: I accidently deleted the /etc/hosts file....now my sudo won't work so i can't get it copied back =\
[07:52] <Managu> giggsey: familiar with linux (or UN*Xs in general?)
[07:52] <sfar-ubu> on deskbars hompage it is written "Required dependencies : pygtk-2.6 (modules: gtk, gtk.gdk, gtk.glade, gobject)"
[07:52] <sfar-ubu> but "sudo apt-get install pygtk-2.6" returns "Cant findthe package"
[07:53] <sfar-ubu> what am i doing wrong? :)
[07:53] <giggsey> Managu: I know a fair amount - installed gentoo numerous times successfully etc.
[07:53] <Managu> giggsey: mmkay.  Any lines like what I have above in your dmesg buffer, or in your system log?
[07:53] <giggsey> only:
[07:54] <giggsey> Mar 18 18:44:26 applied kernel: [4835540.919000]  tuner 1-0061: TV freq (0.00) out of range (44-958)
[07:54] <giggsey> from tvtime a few minutes ago
[07:54] <Managu> anything else with "bttv" in it?
[07:54] <Managu> giggsey: be sure to use pastebin or the like for anything more than 1 line, or 'ware the wrath of ubotu
[07:55] <giggsey> http://giggsey.pastebin.com/609429
[07:55] <akk> Is there a recommended firewall that's available under breezy?
[07:55] <pab1> does any1 here know anything about tvtime?
[07:56] <Managu> giggsey: looks like the bttv initialization has scrolled out of the main log.  How bout trying "zgrep bttv /var/log/messages*"
[07:57] <Managu> !tell pabl about anyone
[07:57] <giggsey> http://giggsey.pastebin.com/609435
[07:58] <pab1> managu can you help?
[07:58] <sfar-ubu> does anyone know what im doing wrong? :(
[07:58] <anstei> hmm, where was the x.org config file again?
[07:59] <Oetzi> re
[07:59] <GnarusLeo> Ok, I have mysql up and running .. (installed) .. now I would like to create a database and a user who can access this (because I want to use php nuke) ... anyone got a clue? I have tried CREATE USER and so on .. but I keep digging me down :)
[07:59] <mouldy> hey all. I just tried to install gimpshop. It seemed to work fine, but when I run it, it shows the gimpshop splash screen but then just loads regular gimp
[07:59] <Spde> lol i cant change the group of a user =( sudo usermod -G username newgrup sure doesnt work =(
[07:59] <mouldy> antsei: /etc/X11
[07:59] <pab1> anstei /etc/X11
[07:59] <Managu> pabl: depends on your question =p
[07:59] <giggsey> anstei: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:59] <Managu> giggsey: did it get your card right?  i.e. Happauge WinTV?
[07:59] <anstei> thanks everyone :)
[07:59] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: i'm back
[07:59] <giggsey> Managu: yep
[07:59] <Oetzi> could you solve your problem
[07:59] <Chousuke> !gnome
[08:00] <pab1> managu: well I can't increase the volume in tvtime.  Its stuck at 0.
[08:00] <Eleaf> humm
[08:00] <Chousuke> I wonder if 2.14 is already in dapper.
[08:00] <Managu> pabl: sounds like a sound problem.  Does your tv card have a lead to the sound card input?
[08:00] <PythonLowRacer> !ubotu libdvdcss2
[08:00] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[08:00] <Jimmey__> When I log on, just before the wallpaper appears on my desktop, I can see the ugly brown colour - How can I change that?
[08:00] <giggsey> chousuke: yep :D
[08:00] <Chousuke> whee.
[08:01] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, ok :) I can start mysql (as root) now ... now I really just have to create a database, and a user who can use this ... so I can use PHP nuke
[08:01] <jahshua> hmm can anyone please help me with adding a .deb link to my repositories ? i have added http://people.debian.org/~dopey/fluxbox/ubuntu-breezy/fluxbox_0.9.14-1_i386.deb to my repos but its not working
[08:01] <Chousuke> Does Dapper have any big bugs right now? I could upgrade the family computer. :)
[08:01] <Managu> giggsey: assuming that you've told TVtime that you're tuning PAL (as opposed to NTSC), you might try some different tuners.  /usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.tuner has a list of numbers
[08:01] <pab1> managu: yes it has a sound output its plugged into the linein plug on my soundblaster audigy 2
[08:02] <hfern> I am trying to install * on ubuntu breezy, but when I compile *, it keeps complaining that I need a newer libpri. I recompile libpri, but no change.. any ideas, anyone?
[08:02] <Jimmey__> When I log on, just before the wallpaper appears on my desktop, I can see the ugly brown colour - How can I change that?
[08:02] <Managu> giggsey: I'd suggest rmmod'ing "bttv" and "tuner" and then "modprobe bttv tuner=#", where # is one of the pal tuners listed.  Then see if tvtime starts working
[08:02] <Managu> pabl: getting sound out of your sound card by any other means?
[08:02] <pab1> mnagu: yes i am
[08:02] <Managu> pabl: okies.  Good picture in tvtime?
[08:02] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: i guess you have apache with php running on this machine so you can install phpmyadmin which is a very good db-managing web-interface
[08:03] <pab1> managu: yes
[08:03] <Managu> pabl: ok.  Get tvtime running, and open up a terminal
[08:03] <newbie1canoby> hello
[08:03] <akk> Chousuke: It has some niggling ones, but not real major stoppers. It's very usable.
[08:03] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, ok! Thanks! And this will create what I need and so on? DB that is?
[08:03] <pab1> managu: done
[08:03] <G0SUB> cafuego: ping
[08:03] <Managu> pabl, run alsamixer in the terminal.
[08:04] <pab1> managu: ya i tried this yesterday :/  ill give it another shot tho
[08:04] <Managu> pabl, ahh, ok
[08:04] <akk> Chousuke: Be prepared for large updates every day or so.
[08:04] <Chousuke> akk: big enough for family to notice? :P
[08:04] <GnarusLeo> !phpmyadmin
[08:04] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, GnarusLeo
[08:04] <Managu> pabl: barring that, try plugging your speakers directly into the tv card, and see if you get anything out
[08:04] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, its installed .. how do I start it etc
[08:04] <idefix> what are db-files?
[08:05] <GnarusLeo> idefix, database :) Mysql
[08:05] <Oetzi> just use the browser of your joice
[08:05] <Spde> plz! how do i change the group of a user? =S tryed everything now =)
[08:05] <akk> Chousuke: Obviously that depends on what apps they use ...
[08:05] <giggsey> Managu:  /usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.tuner doesn't exist
[08:05] <pab1> managu: im thinking it has something to do with the mixer orsomething.  there is an option in the tvtime config <option name="MixerDevice" value="/dev/mixer:line"/>
[08:05] <Skrot> Hi. I'm currently using KDE, but I'm using gnome window decorations (due to aiglx). Where do gnomers usually configure the size of the window decoration font?
[08:05] <Oetzi> you normaly can find it under http://localhost/phpmyadmin
[08:06] <dabaR> Spde: you add him to a group, or remove him from a group. Do you use gnome?
[08:06] <Chousuke> akk: browser and solitaire :P
[08:06] <hfern> spde: what unix do you use?
[08:06] <idefix> GnarusLeo, can I find it under Synaptic?
[08:06] <G0SUB> Seveas: is ubugtu sick today?
[08:06] <Spde> hfern: im using ubuntu? =S
[08:06] <dad> why does ubuntu keep asking for the disc when I try to install anything?
[08:06] <Eleaf> you can disable that?
[08:06] <giggsey> dad: because you have the CD in /etc/apt/sources.listy
[08:06] <giggsey> dad: because you have the CD in /etc/apt/sources.list *
[08:07] <akk> Chousuke: Those should work fine :-) (not that I've tried any solitaire apps).
[08:07] <Klaidas> maybe you should remove cd entry in sources.list
[08:07] <kronoz> dad: comment out the lline for cd in /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:07] <Managu> giggsey: http://giggsey.pastebin.com/609467
[08:07] <kronoz> dad: put a # in front of it
[08:07] <hfern> spde: you need to edit /etc/passwd and possbily /etc/group
[08:07] <dad> ok,  thanks
[08:07] <Chousuke> whoa.
[08:07] <dabaR> hfern: don't give wrong advice.
[08:07] <hfern> spde: but be careful, you need to generate also a new passwd file
[08:07] <Chousuke> 760 MB for the upgrade. :P
[08:07] <athlon> (https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/29760) darn... does that mean theres no way for me to watch flash animation with sound in firefox ? (I use esd)
[08:08] <Chousuke> Maybe I'll do that during the night.
[08:08] <SpudNik> breezy fully compat with audigy4 and radeon 9550 ?
[08:08] <athlon> or is there a workround ?
[08:08] <Managu> pabl: yeah, agreed, it sounds like the mixer.  But, theoretically, there could be 2 different mixers involved
[08:08] <Spde> hfern: edit the group id in passwd?
[08:08] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: is it working?
[08:08] <dabaR> Spde: There is a System menu on the top of your screen, yes? Click on it, choose administration, and then users and groups.
[08:08] <newbie1canoby> were do i get the libdvdcss package
[08:08] <Chousuke> (Only 256 ADSL here, and I value lagless irc.)
[08:08] <Managu> pabl: get anything out plugging your speakers straight into the tv card?
[08:08] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, nope ... cant access it ...
[08:08] <pab1> managu:  i got nothing....  which is odd
[08:08] <etrusco> newbie1canoby: search for automatix on google
[08:08] <Oetzi> is the apache running?
[08:08] <GnarusLeo> yes
[08:08] <Managu> pabl: bttv878 based card?
[08:08] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, I can restart it
[08:08] <pab1> managu:  but i think the real problem is that I cant raise the volume from 0 in tvtime
[08:09] <pab1> managu:  yes i belive so  tv wonder ve
[08:09] <dabaR> hfern: they invented commands that allow you to not have to edit those files. Editing those files by hand is dangerous at the very least.
[08:09] <Jimmey__> card, and see if you get anything out
[08:09] <Jimmey__> GnarusLeo Oetzi, its installed .. how do I start it etc
[08:09] <Jimmey__> idefix what are db-files?
[08:09] <Managu> pabl: odd, I've got that card
[08:09] <pab1> managu:  with tvtime?
[08:09] <Managu> pabl: well, mythtv, but I've used tvtime before
[08:09] <idefix> SQL datavase files
[08:09] <idefix> database*
[08:09] <jahshua> could someone _please_ help me add this link to my repos .. i have tried everything and its not working  http://people.debian.org/~dopey/fluxbox/ubuntu-breezy/fluxbox_0.9.14-1_i386.deb   :/
[08:09] <hfern> dabaR, I did give the extra warning
[08:10] <idefix> so I installed SQL with synaptic, how now do I run it?
[08:10] <youBun2> Hi folks
[08:10] <dad> sorry what was the folder
[08:10] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, got an error while trying to access it: "The configuration file now needs a secret passphrase (blowfish_secret)."
[08:10] <Managu> pabl: what sound modules are running on your system atm?
[08:10] <dabaR> hfern: it was a bad way to go about it. Ther is a GUI, and there is a command line.
[08:10] <youBun2> I need help recovering my Windows XP HE boot
[08:10] <idefix> Jimmey__ just rehearsing?
[08:10] <mwe> jahshua: you can't add a direct URL to a deb
[08:11] <Pedrolito> Does anyone know why my apt-get cannot find mplayer? I enabled the repos in /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:11] <youBun2> I can access my Windows XP HE partition (sda2) but not boot it due to wrong information in the GRUB
[08:11] <pab1> managu:  u want all the snd_* from lsmod?    (im new to sound stuff)
[08:11] <Bung> my friend has 256mb ram with Ubuntu and Xfce, and he cant even run music and torrents, windows runs faster on his box... is there anything i can do?
[08:11] <Managu> pabl: yeah, no underscore
[08:11] <dabaR> Pedrolito: add multiverse to the end of the lines for universe there.
[08:11] <mwe> Pedrolito: if you enable universe and apt-get update it will be there
[08:11] <youBun2> Anyone?
[08:11] <Managu> pabl: in particular, is there a bttv sound, or msp4300 or some such?
[08:11] <dabaR> it is in multiverse
[08:11] <jahshua>  mwe: so how do i do it? im reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto and thats what it seems to say
[08:11] <arrinmurr> jahshua: deb http://people.debian.org/~dopey/fluxbox/ubuntu-breezy ./
[08:12] <youBun2> _jason, Would you know?
[08:12] <mwe> jahshua: is it really an ubuntu repository or is it just a link to a .deb?
[08:12] <LinuxNIT> is there a way to have sudo not require a password for a select few programs but still require a password for the rest?
[08:12] <dad> I closed the window and forgot what folder/file you guys told me to modify to make ubuntu not ask for the CD anymore
[08:12] <Managu> LinuxNIT, what do you have in mind?
[08:12] <jahshua>  mwe: just a link to a deb
[08:12] <dabaR> dad: /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:12] <dad> thx
[08:13] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: sorry i don't know this error
[08:13] <youBun2> Hello?
[08:13] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, hm ...
[08:13] <mwe> jahshua: then you can't put it in sources.list. download the .deb and sudo dpkg -i it
[08:13] <youBun2> ...
[08:13] <katarot> i cant take it anymore i have done everything correct really need help with getting the internet on
[08:13] <pab1> managu:  i see no bttv sound or msp
[08:13] <arrinmurr> jahshua: what i said should work
[08:13] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: i'm looking for it
[08:13] <GnarusLeo> same here
[08:14] <youBun2> katarot, Trouble with Ubuntu?
[08:14] <LinuxNIT> Managu, have a program that sends commands to the os but the commands must be  run with root privilages.
[08:14] <katarot> youbun2: yeah
[08:14] <youBun2> katarot, Don't we all, lol
[08:14] <Managu> LinuxNIT, All I was thinking is that maybe you want to make that command setuid root.  Beware security holes, of course.
[08:14] <LinuxNIT> Managu, i can put sudo in front with of the commands but then it would want a pw for each command
[08:14] <youBun2> katarot, I can't even boot up Windows XP HE because of the crap GRUB
[08:15] <LinuxNIT> Managu, of course no security risk with these commands
[08:15] <youBun2> katarot, Although luckily access my files still
[08:15] <katarot> youbun2:i have been trying for days and i just wont work i have done everything correct
[08:15] <Managu> pabl: I'm short on ideas.  On some of the bttv cards I'm aware of, muting does something totally different than turning the volume to zero, and it's seperate from the sound card.  Other than that, I don't know
[08:15] <youBun2> katarot, I know how you feel. I have been in this position since Thursday now.
[08:15] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, should I set something in config.inc.php ? google gave me lots of scary stuff :)
[08:15] <youBun2> katarot, Wednesday sorry
[08:15] <katarot> youbun2: lol
[08:15] <LinuxNIT> Managu, how do you setuid ?
[08:16] <katarot> youbun2: have you got the internet on ubuntu
[08:16] <giggsey> Managu: Not sure about this, but the TV Channels in the UK are between 20 and 35, yet tvtime doesn't let me go below 39 (it jumps straight to 1 from there (going down))
[08:16] <Pedrolito> oh, I had to do something special to enable multiverse. Now it's working, thanks
[08:16] <LinuxNIT> Managu, thats something ive never messed with
[08:16] <youBun2> katarot, Heh, I realise why Linux isn't officially distributed in stores now ;-)
[08:16] <Managu> LinuxNIT, sudo chmod 4755 <name of command>
[08:16] <youBun2> katarot, Yeah
[08:16] <LinuxNIT> cool thanks
[08:16] <youBun2> katarot, I have a wireless network and the router I use is connected to this PC
[08:17] <nexact> how can I restart my X after i've modified my xorg.conf ?
[08:17] <giggsey> ctrl alt backspace
[08:17] <Managu> giggsey: I'll admit I know nothing about PAL or UK television.  If changing the tuner doesn't help, it might be worth trying to use a simpler tv program to start.  Like xawtv
[08:17] <katarot> youbun2: i have that to is that why you here
[08:17] <mwe> nexact: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[08:17] <nexact> giggsey, if my X fail to load, what's the command please ?
[08:17] <Managu> LinuxNIT, actually "sudo chmod 4755 <full path to command, e.g. /usr/local/bin/whatever>"
[08:17] <nexact> mwe, ok thanks and if it still fail.. there will be logs in /var/log/gdm ?
[08:17] <LinuxNIT> ah thanks
[08:18] <LinuxNIT> Managu, thanks very much
[08:18] <Oetzi> GnarusLeo: have you restart the apache?
[08:18] <GnarusLeo> Oetzi, yes
[08:18] <youBun2> katarot, I'm here in hope of someone directing me to a place that could potentially rectify my Windows boot process _ and it's taking forever
[08:18] <mwe> nexact: it can't start or what? It will log to that location, yes
[08:18] <Managu> LinuxNIT, no problem.  making the command setuid root will allow anyone who can run the command to run it as root.  This can have ... unintended... consequences, so be careful
[08:18] <katarot> youbun2:have you got windows xp install cd
[08:19] <Akane`Mahoru> tadaima
[08:19] <RQ> hi all
[08:19] <RQ> is it normal that I cannot play music in Rhythmbox in dapper until I kill esd?
[08:19] <LinuxNIT> Managu, yes i understand. it will be for progams like iwconfig ifconfig pump iwlist
[08:19] <mwe> youBun2: paste your grub.conf on pastebin.com
[08:20] <Managu> LinuxNIT, *shudders*
[08:20] <SpudNik> got breezy, thought try linux instead of windoze, breezy has problems with audigy4 and radeon9550.  Can these probles be overcome? or is it back to windows for me :/
[08:20] <RQ> mwe, grub.cong?
[08:20] <RQ> *conf
[08:20] <Eleaf> Does anybody need any cpu cycles? ;)
[08:20] <LinuxNIT> Managu, what is bad about those?
[08:20] <RQ> mwe, is there a file like that?
[08:20] <mwe> menu.list it is
[08:20] <Doughboy417> I need to know how to set up a serial mouse
[08:21] <mwe> menu.lst even
[08:21] <dad> the installing of programs is still not working, is it the website it is trying to update from?
[08:21] <RQ> mwe, correct ;)
[08:21] <Managu> LinuxNIT: I don't have any exploit in mind, but that sounds like trouble waiting to happen.  Be sure noone but you is going to have access to your machine ;-)
[08:21] <steve> hi all.  I have a cdrom with japanese filenames... but when I insert it, they're displayed as question marks.  How do I fix this?
[08:21] <mwe> RQ: sometimes it's called grub.conf, in gentoo for example though
[08:21] <dad>  deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted
[08:21] <yaaar> word
[08:21] <dad> is that right...?
[08:21] <RQ> mwe, ok
[08:22] <youBun2> mwe, Wouldn't have the slightest idea where to find 'grub.conf'
[08:22] <RQ> mwe, but I suppose your helping an ubuntu guy here;)
[08:22] <youBun2> katarot, No, I haven't =(
[08:22] <RQ> youBun2, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:22] <dad> what is the proper link for the sources.list file to have?
[08:23] <nexact> how come my VNC server is started on my box and it ask me a password but after I enter it, nothing appear ?
[08:23] <nexact> im using ultra vnc client
[08:23] <nexact> tried with realvnc one.. same problem
[08:23] <RQ> dad, what you pasted is OK
[08:23] <dad> but it doesn't work
[08:23] <youBun2> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10465
[08:23] <htrp> is there any mp3 converter package?
[08:24] <katarot> someone mind helping me i could pm them with what i have done cos it going to take a while
[08:24] <youBun2> mwe, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10465
[08:24] <RQ> dad, what does it say?
[08:24] <RQ> htrp, converter to what?
[08:24] <RQ> katarot, what have you done?
[08:24] <htrp> mp3 to wma, wav, etc
[08:24] <RQ> htrp, to wma i think not
[08:25] <SpudNik> got breezy, thought try linux instead of windoze, breezy has problems with audigy4 and radeon9550.  Can these probles be overcome? or is it back to windows for me :/
[08:25] <RQ> to wav it's useless waste of space
[08:25] <dad> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ca.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)  etc
[08:25] <RQ> SpudNik, did you try ubuntu forums?
[08:25] <Managu> giggsey: another thought, if your're still here: tvtime may have determined that the first few channels have nothing in them (e.g. because of a faulty tuner number, bad reception, whatever).  There's a channel tuning editor in there somewhere that you can override its decisions from
[08:25] <RQ> dad: this happens sometimes
[08:25] <katarot> well i did the ndiswrapper and installed the blmw5.inf and then i tyoe sudo ndiswrapper -l and it says the hardware present and the driver present
[08:25] <RQ> dad; when server is doing an update or so
[08:25] <SpudNik> well yes, looks like a lot of people are having the same problems, just wondered if anyone here knew anymore :)
[08:25] <RQ> dad: try using "us" instead of "ca"
[08:26] <katarot> but when i go to network there is no wlan0
[08:26] <SpudNik> and i would love to install it fully and ditch windows with a bit of luck
[08:26] <dad> alright thx will try
[08:26] <RQ> SpudNik, i think if there is a solution then it should be in the forums.
[08:26] <RQ> however i think i remember ALSA having some problems with audigy
[08:26] <SpudNik> ok thanks for your time :)
[08:26] <SpudNik> i'll get there in the end hehe
[08:27] <katarot> spudnik: i want to ditcht windows to but if i did that then i would have no internet
[08:27] <RQ> just try it first...
[08:27] <RQ> katarot, ah sorry, i know nothing about wlan
[08:27] <katarot> kk
[08:27] <Spde> I have a question.. if the mask is 750 isn't the ide that the owner can do anything, the members of the owner group can read and exe.. and others can't do anything??
[08:27] <SpudNik> oh thats not a problem, ive got the internet working ok on it, just it seemes to hate my audigy and ati lol
[08:27] <ds[de] > Spde: yep
[08:28] <Spde> damit, why doesn't it work then.. =(
[08:28] <Jarryd> anyone know why grub seems to die if I don't put linux on the first partition on the HD?
[08:28] <RQ> Spde, you're right
[08:28] <ds[de] > Spde: what's the problem exactly?
[08:28] <RQ> Spde, use 027
[08:28] <RQ> not 750
[08:28] <SpudNik> just keep trying, thats all i intend to do, either go crazy in the process, or figure it out :)
[08:28] <RQ> it's an Umask
[08:28] <RQ> not mask
[08:29] <Spde> i didnt mean mask.. i ment the right is 750
[08:29] <samuel_> what is the command to upgrade to kde 3.5 after I installed the two keys?
[08:29] <katarot> anyone here know about wlan and how to get it working
[08:29] <ds[de] > RQ: how do you know he's talking about an umask? (just curious)
[08:29] <RQ> Spde, to get 750 on files, you need to use umask=027
[08:29] <SpudNik> could always try *cough* gentoo
[08:29] <RQ> ds[de] , just a wild guess. he mentions exe files
[08:29] <RQ> ;)
[08:29] <samuel_> anyone?
[08:29] <RQ> i suppose he tries to moung a fat/ntfs partition
[08:29] <ds[de] > RQ oh alright, I must've missed the part about .exe files, nm
[08:29] <Jarryd> Hello?
[08:30] <stevr1it> i need your help, i have ubuntu breeze, i have installed wine and the cdrom has dissapeared, i have tryed to mount it but it says that hdc does not exists under /dev, what can i do?
[08:30] <samuel_> what is the command to upgrade to kde 3.5 after I installed the two keys?
[08:30] <samuel_> or what is the package to get it all?
[08:30] <RQ> ds[de] , permissions = mask. but you must set the umask in fstab, not the mask
[08:30] <RQ> and umask is 777-mask
[08:30] <RQ> so 777-750 is 027
[08:31] <ds[de] > RQ, kk
[08:31] <RQ> samuel_, what keys?
[08:31] <iG-Shoot-Me> Mmf where do I download wine?
[08:31] <samuel_> i dunno...it told me to install a couple of keys...
[08:31] <RQ> stevr1it, reboot?
[08:31] <samuel_> then I added the site to download it to sources.list
[08:31] <stevr1it> i did it the same
[08:31] <samuel_> now i dont know how to install or what to install
[08:31] <RQ> samuel_, apt-get -u dist-upgrade?
[08:31] <stevr1it> i cannot see my cd rom
[08:31] <samuel_> ok
[08:31] <ds[de] > iG-Shoot-Me; google.com -> "wine" -> first hit -> www.winehq.com
[08:32] <RQ> ds[de] , or apt-get install wine
[08:32] <iG-Shoot-Me> How do I use wine though
[08:32] <ds[de] > RQ: ok you win =)
[08:32] <captine> hi there.  I've just bought an external HD.  Am running live ubuntu cd.  How do i rsync the ubuntu ftp server to get all apps?
[08:32] <stevr1it> wine is installed perfectly , but ubuntu does not see my cd rom
[08:32] <RQ> ds[de] , just enable universe first ;)
[08:32] <iG-Shoot-Me> RQ: How do I use wine?
[08:32] <jetscreamer> you pour it in a glass and drink... the glass is potional though
[08:32] <katarot> hey would wine work with driver.exe
[08:32] <jetscreamer> optional
[08:32] <iG-Shoot-Me> jetscreamer: lol
[08:32] <RQ> captine, you don't want ALL apps
[08:32] <stevr1it> RQ any idea?
[08:33] <jetscreamer> manwine
[08:33] <RQ> stevr1it, no idea, indeed
[08:33] <stevr1it> it is not a problem of wine, it is how to  lunt cdrom
[08:33] <RQ> i think it's unrelated
[08:33] <stevr1it> mount
[08:33] <mwe> iG-Shoot-Me: install it and type wine whatever.exe
[08:33] <RQ> stevr1it, please refine your question
[08:33] <iG-Shoot-Me> mwe: But I have to download the exe manually?
[08:33] <mwe> iG-Shoot-Me: that's the short answer
[08:33] <stevr1it> ok
[08:33] <akcom> Has anyone here successfully installed Intellij IDEA on Ubuntu/ppc?
[08:33] <mwe> iG-Shoot-Me: yes
[08:34] <stevr1it> cd rom dissapered
[08:34] <iG-Shoot-Me> mwe: My friend told me wine was a bitch to install
[08:34] <stevr1it> peared
[08:34] <samuel_> RQ: will that just upgrade from 3.4.3 to 3.5 (Kde only) ?
[08:34] <RQ> iG-Shoot-Me, you run $ wine /path/to/application.ex
[08:34] <RQ> exe
[08:34] <katarot> think if i emailed dell and started complaing would they do something
[08:34] <mwe> iG-Shoot-Me: apt-get install wine. easy as that
[08:34] <stevr1it> when i try to mount it, it says taht hdc under /dev/ does not exiost
[08:34] <iG-Shoot-Me> mwe:  Ok, gonna go boot linux
[08:34] <mwe> iG-Shoot-Me: only a fraction of all windows programs will actually work though
[08:34] <RQ> samuel_, IF kde3.5 is available in apt repositories you use, then yes
[08:34] <stevr1it> sorry ofr my english RQ
[08:35] <katarot> ig-shoot-me:what is it your installing
[08:35] <captine> RQ, I'm from south africa and don't have an internet connection there.  Am wanting to just get as much as possible while here in US :)
[08:35] <RQ> stevr1it, your english is ok. just the question is weird
[08:35] <RQ> does LINUX not see your cd anymor?
[08:35] <stevr1it> i know
[08:35] <RQ> *more
[08:35] <RQ> or is it wine applications?
[08:35] <stevr1it> no it appears under resources and computer
[08:35] <stevr1it> under ubuntu
[08:35] <iXce> how do i edit the linuxrc file in initrd please?
[08:35] <fiveiron> so whats a nice tv tuner app?
[08:36] <RQ> captine, well you still don't want ALL apps
[08:36] <stevr1it> it appears but does not work
[08:36] <iXce> cant mount the initrd as i used to do on debian and so
[08:36] <RQ> stevr1it, hmm.... did you try rebooting your box?
[08:36] <samuel_> RQ because it's upgrading a whole heap of stuff do I assume it is in my repositories?
[08:36] <stevr1it> yes
[08:36] <RQ> iXce, what is linuxrc?
[08:36] <samuel_> I did add a source to sources.list
[08:36] <stevr1it> already reboot
[08:36] <Jarryd> what's the current suuport for nForce4 integrated Audio, I haven't been able to get it to install in either debian or ubuntu.
[08:36] <Jarryd> ?
[08:36] <RQ> stevr1it, very weird...
[08:37] <iXce> one of the files in initrd image :)
[08:37] <stevr1it> strange
[08:37] <RQ> iXce, what's in it?
[08:37] <captine> RQ, i just don't want to d/l some apps that then require additional ones to run properly, and i might not have the additional ones :)
[08:37] <iXce> hmm it loads modules and such
[08:37] <RQ> captine, just apt-get install whatever you want
[08:37] <RQ> apt will take care of the dependencies
[08:37] <iXce> and i must add a line to it in order to have suspend working ^^
[08:38] <RQ> iXce, it's not in linuxrc, i think...
[08:38] <iXce> "To do this, you MUST edit your linuxrc (or init) script to contain the line"
[08:38] <RQ> it's in /etc/modules and /etc/modprobe.d/
[08:38] <iXce> no no
[08:38] <captine> RQ, i cannot do that from South Africa, as i don't have internet access.
[08:38] <akcom> Has anyone here successfully installed Intellij IDEA on Ubuntu/ppc?
[08:38] <RQ> captine, do that in us
[08:38] <iXce> these modules are loaded AFTER main partitions have been mounted
[08:38] <RQ> yes
[08:38] <stevr1it> does anyone can help me to mount a cd rom? under ubuntu?
[08:38] <RQ> you need them before?
[08:39] <captine> RQ I currently have my work laptop in US, which is windows based.  I want ubuntu on my desktop back home
[08:39] <iXce> thats it
[08:39] <RQ> stevr1it, do ls -l /dev/hdc
[08:39] <rafita> hi

[08:39] <RQ> captine, try looking for an ubuntu DVD or so
[08:39] <stevr1it> here the result.   do ls -l /dev/hdc
[08:39] <RQ> that'd be easier
[08:39] <stevr1it> wait
[08:39] <stevr1it> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `do'
[08:39] <RQ> because ALLLL packages in ubuntu take a lot of pace

[08:40] <RQ> stevr1it, not do

[08:40] <stevr1it> RQ ls: /dev/hdc: No such file or directory
[08:41] <RQ> iXce, look in /etc/mkinitramfs/
[08:41] <iXce> yep
[08:41] <Spde> is this a bug? when im trying to "enter" a folder that the user don't have access to whit the cd command i get access den.. then im trying to enter it as root whit sudo cd folder and get cd "unknown command"
[08:41] <iXce> thats where i am
[08:41] <captine> RQ does the dvd come with more apps than the CD (as i have the CD)?
[08:41] <RQ> stevr1it, does ls -l /dev/hd* give you anything?
[08:41] <iXce> but theres nothing that looks like what i want :p
[08:41] <RQ> captine, i think it should
[08:41] <RQ> not sure if it exists at all tho
[08:42] <Spde> why do i get unknown command when using sudo cd foldername ?????
[08:42] <RQ> iXce, do you need to insert a module or so?
[08:42] <roico> im using ubuntu (not kubuntu)... when i use kde program, it launches KNotify, and is really annoying... =\ hw can i fix it?
[08:42] <mwe> Spde: cd is a bash builin. you can't sudo cd
[08:42] <iXce> no just that line :
[08:42] <iXce>     echo > /proc/suspend2/do_resume
[08:42] <stevr1it> it gives:
[08:42] <RQ> hmm

[08:42] <NickGarvey> I have this process running "/usr/sbin/rpc.rquotad" and I can't seem to find out how to get rid of it, where could I look to find out?
[08:42] <jahshua> hello can someone please help me with the command to upgrade and update all the packages installed on the computer?
[08:42] <mwe> Spde: sudo -i
[08:42] <mwe> Spde: then cd whatever
[08:42] <NickGarvey> it runs off port 959
[08:42] <RQ> mwe: sudo -s
[08:42] <stevr1it> hda hda1 to hda6
[08:42] <iXce> BEFORE the script mounts your filesystem. If the line is missing, your system will not resume. If the line comes after mounting file systems, you will most likely suffer from filesystem corruption. You have been warned.
[08:42] <sfar-ubu> when i do "apt-get update" it seems to work.. but in the end it says

[08:43] <RQ> iXce, ah
[08:43] <Spde> mwe: whats sudo -i?

[08:46] <roico> im using ubuntu (not kubuntu)... when i use kde program, it launches KNotify, and its really annoying... =\ hw can i fix it?
[08:46] <iXce> RG => found the solution :D
[08:46] <katarot> is there any way to upgrade to dapper without internet on ubuntu but internet on another
[08:46] <mcquaid> couldn't find wine? or the setup?
[08:46] <bsdfox> on my screen they just scroll..
[08:46] <iXce> http://wiki.suspend2.net/DistroAndHardwareSetup/Ubuntu_Breezy_Badger
[08:46] <IFlyGTi> I can play mp3 from local drive or stream but not Windows server share, any ideas?
[08:46] <bsdfox> one line hits the top, and it's time for another
[08:47] <ig-shoot-me> I did, i typed in 'sudo wine setup.exe'
[08:47] <netzone_> hi
[08:47] <bsdfox> IFlyGTi: permissions?
[08:47] <mcquaid> no
[08:47] <cA1mAn> also, when installing a program, where are the programs saved? in folders? there is no registry? (as you can see, i'm windows user switching to (k)ubuntu and a newbie :-))
[08:47] <mcquaid> don't use sudo for wine
[08:47] <pike_> ig-shoot-me: include pathname
[08:47] <mcquaid> wine apps get installed locally to your home
[08:47] <IFlyGTi> bsdfox, I can copy the files from the drive on to the Ubunti box.
[08:47] <ig-shoot-me> so i type in wine setup.exe
[08:47] <mcquaid> no need for sudo
[08:47] <mcquaid> yes
[08:47] <klausos> someone can tell me a link of a good wiki to install the package xgl (desktop spin from novell) ???
[08:47] <mcquaid> be in the directory that contains the setup.exe
[08:47] <RQ> stevr1it, i don't see ubuntu detecting your CD drive at all
[08:48] <stevr1it> why?
[08:48] <user__> hello, where I can find a specialized channel in web development on ubuntu?
[08:48] <stevr1it> i know
[08:48] <ig-shoot-me> shaitan@insanelygosu:~$ wine setup.exe
[08:48] <ig-shoot-me> Invoking /usr/lib/wine/wine.bin setup.exe ...
[08:48] <ig-shoot-me> wine: cannot find 'setup.exe'
[08:48] <ig-shoot-me> Wine failed with return code 1
[08:48] <ig-shoot-me> shaitan@insanelygosu:~$
[08:48] <stevr1it> 02 what can i do?
[08:48] <stevr1it> it was working untill today perfectly
[08:48] <jahshua> ok im really confused  ... apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[08:48] <netzone_> i love you
[08:48] <mcquaid> ig-shoot-me, your running from the dir containing the setup.exe?
[08:48] <ig-shoot-me> i dont know where that is
[08:49] <RQ> stevr1it, could it be that you disabled it in bios or disconnected or something like that?
[08:49] <jahshua> ok im really confused  ... apt-get update && apt-get upgrade doesnt upgrade my aterm or other packages .. why not?
[08:49] <IFlyGTi> klausos, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=133772
[08:49] <mcquaid> what are you trying to install something from a cd or an exe u downloaded?
[08:49] <stevr1it> noo
[08:49] <netzone_> dw
[08:49] <stevr1it> not at all
[08:49] <ig-shoot-me> Neither.. im configuring wine..
[08:49] <mwe> ig-shoot-me: you have to find out where it's located
[08:49] <ig-shoot-me> ??
[08:49] <roico> jashua: maybe because there r no updates to these packages...
[08:49] <mcquaid> heh
[08:49] <RQ> stevr1it, or MAYBE it just got broken?
[08:49] <bsdfox> x
[08:49] <stevr1it> no it goes welll wth windows
[08:49] <mcquaid> ok configuring wine and installing an app are two different things
[08:49] <mwe> ig-shoot-me: you don't understand how to use wine.
[08:49] <jahshua> roico: my aterm is from 2001 ! lol
[08:49] <RQ> strange
[08:49] <cA1mAn> >	also, when installing a program, where are the programs saved? in folders? there is no registry? (as you can see, i'm windows user switching to (k)ubuntu and a newbie :-)) Someone could could pont me to a guide or answer that question?
[08:50] <mcquaid> wine setup.exe will install any windows app
[08:50] <ig-shoot-me> mwe: I said that already :)
[08:50] <mwe> ig-shoot-me: you download a .exe like setup.exe. then run wine whatever.exe
[08:50] <ig-shoot-me> ah
[08:50] <ig-shoot-me> ok lets try that
[08:50] <bsdfox> I left my wallet in El Segundo
[08:50] <jahshua> anyone?
[08:50] <jahshua> ok im really confused  ... apt-get update && apt-get upgrade doesnt upgrade my aterm or other packages .. why not?
[08:50] <mcquaid> there is a gui config for wine but i've been told it's outdated and shouldn't be used in creating your 'fake' windows setup
[08:50] <Noah0504> Hey everyone.
[08:50] <jahshua> bsdfox: hi
[08:50] <jahshua> whois bsdfox
[08:50] <jahshua> heh
[08:50] <roico> im using ubuntu (not kubuntu)... when i use kde program, it launches KNotify, and its really annoying... =\ hw can i fix it?
[08:50] <bsdfox> whois jahshua
[08:50] <mwe> ig-shoot-me: don't expect the program to work unless it's listed as working in the wine database though
[08:50] <stevr1it> RQ don't telll me i have to reistall ubuntu
[08:50] <jahshua> :o
[08:50] <mcquaid> i don't have wine installed right now but i think it's wine-config or something
[08:51] <RQ> stevr1it, is it configured properly in BIOS, and jumpers are fine too?
[08:51] <mcquaid> from a cmd line type wine and press tab and see what other proggies start with wine
[08:51] <stevr1it> yes, it works with windows
[08:51] <jahshua> bsdfox: hi
[08:51] <bsdfox> hi
[08:51] <user__> hello, where I can find a specialized channel in web development under ubuntu?
[08:51] <jahshua> why did you type this 19:50 < bsdfox> I left my wallet in El Segundo
[08:51] <Xeonwales> afternoon all
[08:51] <RQ> stevr1it, it may work fine without that too...
[08:51] <bsdfox> I gotta get it, got got to get it
[08:51] <jahshua> hehe
[08:51] <kristian_> I'm trying to get my ethernet up and running but I can't I've loaded the module sk98lin but it doesnt find the ethernet anyway, if I use the older ubuntu breezy kernel it works and uses that driver. Anyone that has any sugestions?
[08:52] <IFlyGTi> Anyone know how to replace the music in Fozen Bubble?
[08:52] <RQ> stevr1it, did you upgrade your kernel?
[08:52] <jahshua> hey thats in my real name field on efnet
[08:52] <stevr1it> it was working perfectly nad i have installe wine, after that it desappeared
[08:52] <Xeonwales> can anyone give me a good reason to switch to ubuntu???
[08:52] <stevr1it> yes but some days ago
[08:52] <cA1mAn> if i unistall a program using synaptic or apt-get remove, *EVERY* file relating to the program will be removed?
[08:52] <kristian_> cA1mAn, some configs can be left behind if you don't purge the packages
[08:52] <TheGuv> Xeonwales, it's easy to install and use for beginners without taking away the fun stuff from advanced users
[08:52] <user__> A good reason to switch to ubuntu: The people who works really care about quality!
[08:52] <void^> cA1mAn: unless you created or modified the file
[08:52] <mwe> does dmesg say you card is detected? dmesg|grep -i eth maybe
[08:52] <bsdfox> jahshua, it looks like it's "jahshua" to me
[08:53] <cA1mAn> but where are the files saved?
[08:53] <RQ> stevr1it, i hope it's breezy?
[08:53] <stevr1it> 03 what shall i do?
[08:53] <cA1mAn> or how to purge them
[08:53] <stevr1it> yes
[08:53] <kristian_> mwe, nope nothing
[08:53] <jahshua> hmm maybe i changed it
[08:53] <stevr1it> breezy
[08:53] <mcquaid> right click and choose complete removal
[08:53] <Xeonwales> TheGuv so, installing programs is easy on ubuntu??
[08:53] <jahshua> must have ..
[08:53] <TheGuv> Xeonwales, yes
[08:53] <mcquaid> but it will still leave whatever was in your home
[08:53] <kristian_> cA1mAn, rigght click it and select remove with config or something like that
[08:53] <ig-shoot-me> I dont know if it worked, here is my log thing: http://pastebin.com/609542
[08:53] <IFlyGTi> Xeonwales, mostly.
[08:53] <mwe> kristian_: and you're using the correct module and lsmod confirms it's loaded?
[08:53] <user__> Xeonwales: is very easy to install programs
[08:53] <Xeonwales> windows easy?? linspire easy?? or linux easy??
[08:54] <kristian_> mwe, it's loaded but it isn't in use, the weird thing is that it's the one that's used with the older kernel
[08:54] <mcquaid> apt-get isn't perfect, it has it's works, but yes for the most part it's dead easy to install apps
[08:54] <roostishaw> can someone tell me if all my user setting are stored in my home directory?
[08:54] <stevr1it> if i put a live version and reboot, it works
[08:54] <bsdfox> Xeonwales: easier than any of them probably
[08:54] <cA1mAn> but could anyone tell me *where* they are saved (default)?
[08:54] <marcelo> hola
[08:54] <mcquaid> err works/quirks
[08:54] <mcquaid> heh
[08:54] <mwe> kristian_: yeah sounds odd. if you boot the old kernel it still works?
[08:54] <RQ> stevr1it, try sudo mknod /dev/hdc b 22 0
[08:54] <stevr1it> ok
[08:54] <kristian_> cA1mAn, depends on the application but usally in /etc/...
[08:54] <marcelo> que cunetan?
[08:54] <kristian_> mwe, yes
[08:54] <RQ> it'll create hdc for you
[08:54] <marcelo> cuentan
[08:54] <ig-shoot-me> http://pastebin.com/609542 ( i cant find the result and i don tknow if it worked)
[08:54] <roico> im using ubuntu (not kubuntu)... when i use kde program, it launches KNotify, and its really annoying... =\ hw can i fix it?
[08:54] <stevr1it> done
[08:54] <cA1mAn> and with folders?, kristian_ ?
[08:54] <IFlyGTi> Xeonwales, sorta Windows easy...but I haven't installed anything from CD, I use apt-get, the "add applications" or Synapatic Package Manager.
[08:54] <stevr1it> and?
[08:54] <user__> Xeonwales: dont expect the usually install, next, next, next, done... it's quite different, but still easy
[08:54] <RQ> stevr1it, but i'm not sure it'll help
[08:54] <marcelo> parecen gringos
[08:55] <Xeonwales> linspire has Click N Run, is it that easy on ubuntu?? Im asking as im interested in moving from linspire
[08:55] <roostishaw> can someone tell me if all my user setting are stored in my home directory?
[08:55] <kristian_> cA1mAn, you could check which files that's installed by a package in synaptic
[08:55] <RQ> stevr1it, try accessing your CD now...
[08:55] <stevr1it> nothing appeared
[08:55] <cA1mAn> ok
[08:55] <stevr1it> ok
[08:55] <roostishaw> anyone?
[08:55] <ig-shoot-me> http://pastebin.com/609542 (??)
[08:55] <mwe> kristian_: it sounds like the new module might be broken. Maybe you should report a bug and stick with the old kernel for now, unless you really need the new kernel for some reason
[08:55] <user__> Xeonwales: ubuntu dsnt have something Click N Run
[08:55] <Munchkinguy> Does anyone know why I'm banned from ##gnome? Is it because it's full, or because my ip address is banned?
[08:55] <roostishaw> can someone tell me if all my user setting are stored in my home directory?
[08:55] <IFlyGTi> Xeonwales, "Add Applications" is probably sorta like clicknrun.
[08:55] <user__> hello, where I can find a specialized channel in web development under ubuntu?
[08:55] <Eleaf> Munchkinguy, I'm not sure
[08:56] <Eleaf> Munchkinguy, how often have you been there before?
[08:56] <TheGuv> Xeonwales, you can open an add/remove programs app or a more advance installer
[08:56] <Xeonwales> so, i dont have to enter any commands??
[08:56] <roostishaw> THIS "SUPPORT CHANNEL" SUCKS ASS
[08:56] <user__> Xeonwales: yes, Add Applications is the most similat
[08:56] <ig-shoot-me> Hello (http://pastebin.com/609542)
[08:56] <Munchkinguy> Eleaf: Rarely ever, and I've always been polite.
[08:56] <TheGuv> Xeonwales, you can if you want, but ubuntu has front ends to make things easy ;)
[08:56] <kristian_> mwe, no I don't have any real reason for having a new kernel, it's just that I want my custum kernel, but I will try to use an older kernel instead
[08:56] <IFlyGTi> Xenguy, I've never used Lindows, so I wouldn't know how Click N Run works.
[08:56] <jerware> rootishaw: you're funny
[08:56] <Eleaf> ok
[08:56] <roico> im using ubuntu (not kubuntu)... when i use kde program, it launches KNotify, and its really annoying... =\ hww can i fix it?
[08:56] <stevr1it> RQ nothing
[08:56] <IFlyGTi> Ubuntu is really simple though.
[08:56] <captine> Where does ubuntu automatically mount USB drives ??  ie i can't see it under the /mnt forlder?
[08:56] <TheGuv> captine, hey
[08:56] <Chousuke> /media?
[08:56] <mwe> kristian_: oh the new one is a custom one?
[08:56] <Xeonwales> so, if i download... say azureus. do i just double click on it??
[08:57] <kristian_> mwe, yes
[08:57] <Unity> captine: /media maybe
[08:57] <GnarusLeo> !php
[08:57] <ubotu> somebody said lamp was 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
[08:57] <TheGuv> captine, you should be able to go to system > computer > ... and see it
[08:57] <mwe> kristian_: could it be that something else is missing in your kernel?
[08:57] <RQ> stevr1it, how did you install wine?
[08:57] <RQ> apt-get or what?
[08:57] <stevr1it> normally with synaptic
[08:57] <RQ> katarot, no info in the forums?
[08:57] <captine> Unity, thanks.  it's under media :)
[08:57] <RQ> stevr1it, then it's VERY strange
[08:57] <Xeonwales> ok, thanx all
[08:57] <user__> Where I can find a specialized channel in web development under ubuntu?
[08:57] <stevr1it> at a certain point it asked me to mount thecd rom but i did not how
[08:57] <kristian_> mwe, could be but I don't know anything special that has to be there to get a ethernet up, i've checked my config a couple of times now
[08:58] <pedro> hi, i dont use evolution-exchange, but when uninstalling it, it reports uninstalation of ubuntu-desktop. What does this mean ?
[08:58] <katarot> yeah but they all think what i have done already should have worked
[08:58] <Xeonwales> one other question, how easy is ubuntu to install on a laptop
[08:58] <RQ> stevr1it, and what did you do?
[08:58] <stevr1it> really strande
[08:58] <stevr1it> nothing, i did not what to do, i thought i willd o it later
[08:58] <kristian_> mwe, or at least, I've never had any problems with this before on other computers
[08:58] <RQ> steve, aaand?....
[08:58] <stevr1it> i continue to instal winecfg
[08:58] <RQ> hmmm
[08:58] <mwe> kristian_: I see.
[08:58] <roico> im using ubuntu (not kubuntu)... when i use kde program, it launches KNotify, and its really annoying... =\ how can i fix it?
[08:59] <Xeonwales> one other question, how easy is ubuntu to install on a laptop
[08:59] <RQ> stevr1it, well it asked for the cdrom because it wanted to install stuff from it
[08:59] <stevr1it> probably
[08:59] <RQ> Xeonwales, just as easy as on a desktop
[08:59] <steve> RQ,  u meant stevr1it , right?
[08:59] <mwe> kristian_: you can't even see the interface with ifconfig -a with the module loaded?
[08:59] <RQ> steve, yes, sorry
[08:59] <stevr1it> but it works if i try with a live version
[08:59] <kristian_> mwe, no it's just lo
[08:59] <steve> RQ,  np
[08:59] <GnarusLeo> Hi! When I try to access my admin.php file for the first time i get this error: Warning: main(language/lang-.php) [function.main] : failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/mainfile.php on line 183
[08:59] <Xeonwales> live version wont load
[08:59] <GnarusLeo> anyone got a clue?
[08:59] <mwe> kristian_: even with the -a switch?
[08:59] <TheGuv> Xeonwales, what's it do?
[08:59] <RQ> Xeonwales, why?
[09:00] <Xeonwales> black screen
[09:00] <kristian_> mwe, yes
[09:00] <RQ> Xeonwales, when loading X?
[09:00] <Xeonwales> just does not load
[09:00] <Xeonwales> yeah
[09:00] <thingy> Xeonwales: nvidia video card?
[09:00] <kristian_> mwe, with the older kernel I get eth0
[09:00] <Xeonwales> ATI
[09:00] <mwe> kristian_: I don't know. it sounds weird
[09:00] <Xeonwales> ATI mobility X7000
[09:00] <tomypreach> hey guys
[09:00] <ipfw> I tried that EasyUbuntu to install my ati stuff, and it locked me up with a blank screen :P
[09:00] <Xeonwales> X700 sorry
[09:00] <pedro> anyone ? i dont use evolution-exchange, but when uninstalling it, it reports uninstalation of ubuntu-desktop. What does this mean ?
[09:00] <TheGuv> there's your problem :p
[09:00] <ipfw> I have an ATI Mobility 9000
[09:00] <thingy> Xeonwales: did you google search for your laptop model + linux ?
[09:01] <RQ> pedro, it means it wants to uninstall ubuntu-desktop metapackage
[09:01] <TheGuv> ATI's linux drivers are baaaad
[09:01] <Munchkinguy> pedro: it is probably removing "dependencies" from ubuntu-desktop
[09:01] <RQ> it is
[09:01] <pedro> but is it not removing important stuff ?
[09:01] <RQ> no
[09:01] <stevr1it> RQ i come back soon, i try to reboot and check under the bios, see in 5 minutes. bye
[09:01] <RQ> k.
[09:01] <Xeonwales> there is something on the ubuntu forum about acer aspire 1692wlmi no good on linux
[09:01] <mwe> TheGuv: however the perform decently here
[09:01] <ipfw> TheGuv: yeah, I'll just continue to use the default X ones, they work fine
[09:02] <michael> how can i find out what NIC i have?
[09:02] <Munchkinguy> Eleaf: So, any idea why I'm blocked?
[09:02] <RQ> Xeonwales, then read it
[09:02] <RQ> ;)
[09:02] <tomypreach> got a big problem - when i try to install ubuntu , all works well - untill i get to the user spec. i type in my name - user name - and password . and it just goes back to the same menu "user menu" - what can i do ? and why does it preform as is does ?
[09:02] <TheGuv> ipfw, that's what I do :p
[09:02] <kristian_> michael, lspci |grep ether
[09:02] <michael> ty
[09:02] <Xeonwales> loads of jargon about having to edit things
[09:02] <cA1mAn> when will the team creat a live-cd for XUBUNTU?
[09:02] <RQ> tomypreach, you're not using any accented/special characters in your name?
[09:02] <Eleaf> Munchkinguy, I don't know.  I asked for somebody to talk to about it but nobody is really talking in that room
[09:02] <mwe> kristian_: I need grep -i to see it
[09:03] <testing> hi I have a question, just installed ubuntu on here, I have a second hard drive with windows drivel on it, what shall I format it as to use it for file storage?  yep I'm a linux newbie  :)
[09:03] <tomypreach> no
[09:03] <mwe> kristian_: or grep Ether
[09:03] <michael> kristian_; I did the command but got nothing
[09:03] <tomypreach> tommy
[09:03] <ipfw> cA1mAn: whats Xubuntu ?
[09:03] <tomypreach> and user tom
[09:03] <Xeonwales> yet linspire works no prob
[09:03] <mwe> michael: try lspci|grep -i ether
[09:03] <kristian_> mwe, micheal, sry missed that one
[09:03] <ipfw> cA1mAn: that xgl ver of ubuntu ?
[09:03] <cA1mAn> xfce
[09:03] <michael> ty
[09:03] <tomypreach> RQ - tommy and to
[09:03] <RQ> ipfw, ubuntu+xfce
[09:03] <tomypreach> tom
[09:03] <RQ> -gnome
[09:03] <ipfw> cA1mAn: don't think they will, if they did No one would use ubuntu or kubuntu :P
[09:04] <ipfw> xfce is where its at ;)
[09:04] <RQ> tomypreach, strange
[09:04] <tomypreach> RQ - iv install from the cd before . and it worked just fine
[09:04] <tomypreach> RQ - very
[09:04] <cA1mAn> xfce rules :-)
[09:04] <RQ> tomypreach, well it's obviously a bug...
[09:04] <Xeonwales> o well, looks like ubuntu does not 'just work'
[09:05] <cA1mAn> it would make much sense as a *live-cd", since it's so light-weight
[09:05] <RQ> Xeonwales, in theory, it does;)
[09:05] <Xeonwales> just works (if you know what you are doing)
[09:05] <tomypreach> Yes - i heard bugs are there to be work with ? right ?=
[09:05] <ipfw> cA1mAn: yeah, I wish Sun would invest in xfce, instead of attempting to bring gnome and such to solaris
[09:06] <kristian_> mwe, i've downloaded the 2.6.12 source and it seems the driver I use is different, it seems to have been split in the newer kernels... i'll try this one and it probably works
[09:06] <RQ> tomypreach, try booting the installation again. if it happens again, report a bug
[09:06] <RQ> :)
[09:06] <tomypreach> RQ - id tried installing it two times now -
[09:06] <mwe> kristian_: ok.
[09:06] <Munchkinguy> cA1mAn: You can get an xfce live cd here: http://www.xfld.de/Xfld/en/index.html
[09:06] <RQ> tomypreach, then report a bug to bugzilla
[09:06] <NickGarvey> !wine
[09:06] <katarot> i need internet windows is really depressing me now
[09:06] <RQ> Munchkinguy, it's fscking old
[09:06] <RQ> you know
[09:06] <tomypreach> RQ - maybe its my cd -
[09:06] <Eleaf> Munchkinguy, Juhaz or Hawkwind  .  I think those are the guys you want to talk to (ops).  I don't think they are here right now though.
[09:06] <RQ> tomypreach, might be.
[09:07] <cA1mAn> Munchkinguy: i'm jsut burning it atm :-)

[09:07] <ubuntu_kip> how do i update gnome
[09:07] <RQ> while 4.4 is quite soon to be released
[09:07] <GnarusLeo> Hi! When I try to access my admin.php file for the first time i get this error: Warning: main(language/lang-.php) [function.main] : failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/mainfile.php on line 183
[09:07] <cA1mAn> so what's the best ot TEST xfce, RQ ?
[09:07] <ubuntu_kip> to 2.6
[09:07] <cA1mAn> with live-cd
[09:08] <koolatron> hi all, i run kubuntu but i don't think my problem is kubuntu-specific
[09:08] <koolatron> and nobody over there is being helpful ;)
[09:08] <RQ> cA1mAn, get ubuntu, install it as a server, then apt-get install xfce
[09:08] <ubuntu_kip> how do i update gnome to 2.6
[09:08] <RQ> or apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[09:08] <delphiuk> cA1mAn: isn't it xubuntu-desktop?
[09:08] <cA1mAn> RQ, does it work with the live-cd of ubuntu?
[09:08] <katarot> who here uses a laptop and had to use ndiswrapper
[09:08] <RQ> cA1mAn, and to get it on a livecd... errrrrr.....
[09:09] <RQ> let's see
[09:09] <koolatron> When I used to insert my usbhdd, i'd get an icon on my desktop and it'd be automounted.  Now neither of those things happen.
[09:09] <mwe> katarot: I do
[09:09] <ipfw> RQ: I already have xfce4 installed ... is there any advantage of giving it xubuntu-desktop ?
[09:09] <NewUSER> I need help i installed ubuntu on windows dual boot
[09:09] <NewUSER> But
[09:09] <koolatron> dmesg reports all the kernel messages saying that it got inserted, and i can mount it myself via pmount
[09:09] <katarot> mwe: have you got internet
[09:09] <NewUSER> When i choose to load windows i cant it says file corrupt
[09:09] <mwe> katarot: madwifi is supposed to work for my card, but it's unreliable for me. now it works great
[09:09] <koolatron> but neither gnome nor kde see it automatically
[09:09] <RQ> ipfw, well try running apt-get install xubuntu-desktop and see what packages it wants to install
[09:09] <NewUSER> Wt now
[09:10] <cyrun> hi, i'm running flight 5. my system doesn't recognize my pcmcia-card (proxim orinoco) on boot. after ejecting and re-inserting everything works fine. What to do?
[09:10] <ipfw> RQ: yeah, guess that would be the easy way to see if it truely adds much :P
[09:10] <katarot> mwe: what type of card do you have
[09:10] <RQ> ipfw, yup
[09:10] <mwe> katarot: you have to be careful what windows driver you use with ndiswrapper though. far from all drivers will work
[09:10] <mwe> katarot: atheros
[09:10] <leshaste>  has anyone found a way to play a drm'ed video in linux?
[09:10] <NewUSER> Help plz
[09:10] <testing123ubuntu> yep I'm a linux newbie  :)  and hi;  I have a question, just installed ubuntu on here, I have a second hard drive with windows drivel on it, what shall I format it as to use it for file storage?
[09:10] <katarot> mwe: i got a broadcom think madwifi will detect it
[09:10] <mwe> katarot: there is a list of suggested drivers to use for various cards on ndiswrapper.sf.net
[09:11] <cA1mAn> RQ: is it now possible to install with (k)ubuntu live cd?
[09:11] <mwe> katarot: no
[09:11] <RQ> NewUSER, is it windows that gives that error or the GRUB bootloader?
[09:11] <RQ> cA1mAn, dunno
[09:11] <testing123ubuntu> NewUSER  you might just have messed up your windows now
[09:11] <mwe> katarot: madwifi is for atheros chip based cards
[09:11] <koolatron> testing123ubuntu: anything your heart desires.  ext3 or reiser
[09:11] <ubuntu_kip> where is GTK+ version 2.6
[09:11] <katarot> mwe: ok
[09:11] <NewUSER> From grub i select windows. Then it gives me a error
[09:11] <ubuntu_kip> is it already installed?\
[09:11] <mwe> katarot: I found it to be unreliable as well
[09:11] <RQ> ubuntu_kip, in the repository, eh?
[09:11] <ipfw> RQ: Wanna here something funny ... My wife use to call me all the time, asking what the heck was wrong with her computer (win2k/win98), After I got back from Iraq I slapped Linux on it, and the only thing I've had to trouble shoot was my son pulling out the cords :P
[09:11] <RQ> ubuntu_kip, if you're using gnome, YES
[09:12] <katarot> mwe: before you got it how did you get ubuntu to show wlan0
[09:12] <RQ> ipfw,  :))
[09:12] <Phlosten> NewUSER, what error do you get?
[09:12] <ipfw> RQ: I can't even remember what flavor/version of Linux she is running
[09:12] <mwe> katarot: I'm sure it's possible to get your card to work with ndiswrapper though
[09:12] <RQ> ipfw, did your wife kill herself?
[09:12] <koolatron> Also, can anyone tell me why my hsbhdd doesn't get automounted?
[09:12] <mwe> katarot: it doesn't untill I load ndiswrapper
[09:12] <katarot> mwe: load it
[09:12] <koolatron> i used to get an icon on my desktop when i inserted it, but no more
[09:12] <mwe> katarot: it wont show a card with no driver
[09:12] <RQ> NewUSER, is it windows loader that gives that error or GRUB?
[09:12] <Xeonwales> can any1 help me with a wireless issue on ubuntu??
[09:13] <RQ> NewUSER, write the error down and paste it here
[09:13] <ipfw> RQ: She complained about Linux looking different for a few minutes, then after she played with it for week she wouldn't let me put windows back on :P
[09:13] <katarot> mwe: i got the drivers installed and it still ni showing it
[09:13] <mwe> katarot: I don't understand your last question
[09:13] <NewUSER> One sec
[09:13] <RQ> ipfw, good ;)
[09:13] <NewUSER> Writting it
[09:13] <Eleaf> Anybody familiar with cacti? ;p
[09:13] <RQ> ipfw, well i installed linux for my mom. so i'm cool too ;P
[09:13] <katarot> mwe: i installed the driver but it wont display wlan0
[09:13] <bimberi> !wifi
[09:13] <ubotu> wifi is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[09:13] <mwe> katarot: what drivers?
[09:13] <Xeonwales> thanx
[09:13] <ipfw> RQ: My son loves XFCE too, he likes that he can launch apps, close them, and scroll through the desktops (he's almost 2 years old) :P
[09:13] <katarot> bcmwl5.inf
[09:14] <RQ> ipfw, hehe
[09:14] <mwe> katarot: what does ndiswrapper -l say?
[09:14] <bimberi> Xeonwales: np :) (yes, that was for you :) )
[09:14] <koolatron> it is probably a HAL problem because I know that it behaves the same under gnome and KDE
[09:14] <RQ> ipfw, what are you doing in iraq?
[09:14] <Xeonwales> cheers
[09:14] <katarot> mwe: hardware present driver present
[09:14] <Phlosten> ipfw, my daugter loves all the penguins!
[09:14] <mwe> katarot: good. and ifconfig -a?
[09:14] <ipfw> RQ: I'm at FT Gordon (Georgia) now, for more computer training. But just got back from Iraq a few months ago
[09:14] <RQ> uh
[09:15] <ipfw> RQ: 14 Months of Battle Logistics (filed papers) :P
[09:15] <katarot> mwe: 1 sec i got it all saved somewhere
[09:15] <koolatron> i'm on the verge of wiping and reinstalling, but i'd like to not do that just because my hd doesn't get automounted.  but really it's a huge inconvenience.  anyone?  please?
[09:15] <mwe> katarot: you should check dmesg after you load ndisrapper
[09:15] <RQ> koolatron, add it to /etc/fstab ?
[09:16] <testing123ubuntu> koolatron:  thank you, was just bewildered by the choices and I haven't rtfm yet  :)
[09:16] <katarot> i have i get there something weird in there
[09:16] <RQ> koolatron, (i don't know if there's any "convenient" way to do that)
[09:16] <Xeonwales> ubuntu finds my wireless, but wont connect to router
[09:16] <koolatron> RQ: it *did* it before, but it's not doing it now
[09:16] <Seveas> Xeonwales, which type of card and encryption?
[09:16] <mwe> Xeonwales: encrypted?
[09:16] <NewUSER> RQ ERROR message is windows 2000 could not start because of the following file is missing or corrupt. <windows 2000 root>\system32\ntoskrnl.Exe
[09:16] <ipfw> RQ: I have a silly question, where soes ubuntu put the startup files... you know, the ones that link to /etc/init.d/* files to tell it to start them up on boot
[09:16] <koolatron> RQ: i would insert the thing, get an icon on my desktop, and it'd just mount.
[09:16] <Xeonwales> intel card, no encription
[09:16] <RQ> koolatron, paste output of dmesg to pastebin.com
[09:17] <ipfw> RQ: Gentoo has /etc/rc.d/default/ or something
[09:17] <Seveas> NewUSER, aka - "bye bye, I'm FUBAR and you need to reinstall"
[09:17] <RQ> NewUSER, ouch. that hurts
[09:17] <mwe> Xeonwales: iwlist <interface> scan, does the ap show?
[09:17] <Xeonwales> yeah
[09:17] <Seveas> Xeonwales, correct SSID/AP listed in iwconfig?
[09:17] <NewUSER> What does it mean
[09:17] <RQ> ipfw, /etc/rc*.d/
[09:17] <NewUSER> ?
[09:17] <koolatron> RQ: dmesg doesn't say anything important.  I can mount the thing manually and it works fine
[09:17] <Xeonwales> yeah
[09:17] <ipfw> I couldn't find the rc1.d rc2.d
[09:17] <ipfw> RQ: I'll look again :P
[09:17] <Phlosten> NewUSER, it means your Windows kernel is rooted and it wants another one
[09:18] <koolatron> RQ: but doing that every time for both my hdd and ipod is hassle-tastic
[09:18] <ipfw> RQ: it is there !
[09:18] <testing123ubuntu> koolatron: one more question, for access path do I put home if it's just tyo store files?
[09:18] <RQ> koolatron, some daemon stopped functioning, i guess
[09:18] <mwe> NewUSER: it probaly means it broken and cannot be repaired easily
[09:18] <Xeonwales> no1??
[09:18] <ipfw> RQ: right under my nose, wonder why bash didn't want to give me tab completel options for them earlier :P
[09:18] <NewUSER> So solution in this case
[09:18] <RQ> NewUSER, you may have to repair windows using the install cd
[09:18] <koolatron> testing123ubuntu: give it its own directory under /media or /mnt
[09:18] <NewUSER> Ok
[09:18] <ubuntu_kip> how do i use sh setup.sh
[09:18] <TheGuv> Xeonwales, try sudo dhclient [wlan0] 
[09:18] <NewUSER> Thanks
[09:19] <Xeonwales> ??
[09:19] <katarot> mwe:http://rafb.net/paste/results/E7pcuC53.html
[09:19] <RQ> NewUSER, np/
[09:19] <TheGuv> Xeonwales, open up a Terminal and type that in
[09:19] <katarot> mwe:thats is what i get
[09:19] <mwe> Xeonwales: did you try sudo dhclient <interface> ?
[09:19] <koolatron> RQ: what controls that functionality?  I thought it was HAL, but I don't know how to configure it or what if anything could've gone wrong
[09:19] <ubuntu_kip> how do i use sh setup.sh
[09:19] <Xeonwales> tried it
[09:19] <TheGuv> Xeonwales, only probably wihout the brackets
[09:19] <ubuntu_kip> to install gnome art
[09:19] <testing123ubuntu> koolatron: thanks again
[09:19] <koolatron> testing123ubuntu: np
[09:19] <mwe> Xeonwales: it didn't give you an ip?
[09:19] <Xeonwales> nope
[09:19] <RQ> koolatron, for me the usb drives stopped automounting on my iBook after I "fixed" it so it doesn't crash on wake up from suspen
[09:19] <RQ> d
[09:20] <mwe> Xeonwales: iwconfig <interface> essid your_ap first though
[09:20] <Xeonwales> ip = 0.0.0.0
[09:20] <mwe> Xeonwales: with sudo
[09:20] <mwe> Xeonwales: sudo iwconfig <interface> essid your_ap first
[09:20] <mwe> katarot: i'll look at it ...
[09:20] <Xeonwales> ok, brb. thanx
[09:20] <katarot> mwe: thanks
[09:21] <RQ> koolatron, i think it's hal, though
[09:21] <TotalT> Dapper has done well.
[09:21] <mwe> katarot: is the ndiswrapper kernel module loaded? eg sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[09:21] <Spde> can i set umask for a folder and the subfolder?
[09:21] <dj-fu> dapper pawns all
[09:22] <RQ> Spde, ?
[09:22] <dj-fu> apart from the dirty brown theme
[09:22] <RQ> Spde, what do you mean?
[09:22] <dli__> any simple ubuntu Chinese howto?
[09:22] <katarot> mwe: yeah
[09:22] <TotalT> Dapper: ... however the BeOS theme has some missing icons.
[09:22] <Spde> RQ: nothing, forget it =)
[09:23] <mwe> katarot: lsmod confirms that? and what's the output of dmesg|tail -n30 after loading ndiswrapper?
[09:23] <ubuntu_kip> how do i use sh setup.sh
[09:23] <ubuntu_kip> how do i use sh setup.sh
[09:23] <ubuntu_kip> to install gnome art
[09:23] <yamathan> Huh.
[09:23] <nathaniel> I have multiple drives in my computer and would like ot know if I can move my swap partition to a different drive
[09:23] <yamathan> I wonder why I'm getting this error after using ATi's proprietary installer.
[09:23] <RQ> ubuntu_kip, run terminal, then cd to a folder where that script is, then sh setup.sh
[09:23] <katarot> mse: i will have to boot up ubuntu for that i will brb
[09:24] <ubuntu_kip> ok thx
[09:24] <dj-fu> yamathan: what's the error?
[09:24] <yamathan> I install it, I reboot, and BOOM - X won't start.
[09:24] <kanid> well, lets try this again:
[09:24] <kanid> I have a Logitech MX1000 wireless mouse which has a usb receiver. When I boot my Toshiba Satellite up with the mouse plugged in, everything works just dandy. Exactly like things should be.
[09:24] <RQ> nathaniel, you can
[09:24] <dj-fu> yamathan: blank screen?
[09:24] <kanid> The problem comes when I plug the mouse in after the system has booted. Once I plug the mouse in I get the following kernel message repeated way too many times:
[09:24] <nathaniel> ok, cool...thanks
[09:24] <kanid> [4348319.623000]  hub 1-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 1. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[09:24] <kanid> Now, I know the cable isn't bad because the mouse works in ubuntu if plugged in before booting, and it works in gentoo and windows on the same computer. It also works in slackware on a different computer.
[09:25] <dj-fu> yamathan: take a look through /var/log/Xorg.0.log for (EE) lines
[09:25] <yamathan> I can't pm in this client.  : P
[09:25] <yamathan> DJ-fu, I'll go do that.
[09:25] <kanid> anyone have any ideas?
[09:26] <dj-fu> yamathan: the xchat-gnome sucks eh, I'm using it aswell
[09:26] <RQ> kanid, maybe it's a bug
[09:26] <TheGuv> yamathan, if you can't pm, you're obviously not telnetting ;)
[09:26] <dj-fu> telnet->irc for the win!
[09:26] <TheGuv> hwegegege
[09:26] <kanid> RQ, I filed one here: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/hotplug/+bug/35492
[09:27] <dj-fu> ah, PM's are blocked unless you register
[09:27] <yamathan> Oh?
[09:27] <Jarryd> ok, this is ridiculous, am I going to take a massive speed hit if I use the 32bit version instead of the 64bit version? All these apps and module conflicts are making my head spin.
[09:27] <RQ> kanid, great
[09:27] <kanid> RQ, but I'm not sure how to narrow it down to a specific place
[09:27] <yamathan> I can't get the damn thing to tell me anything useful.  : P

[09:28] <RQ> kanid, devs will help you to narrow it down
[09:28] <yamathan> Aw, shit.  Sorry.
[09:28] <kanid> RQ, I hope so.
[09:29] <kanid> RQ, do the devs not generally hang out in IRC or the forums?
[09:29] <dj-fu> yamathan: `cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log|grep (EE)`
[09:29] <mwe> or just grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log :)
[09:29] <RQ> kanid, dunno, i'm not a dev
[09:29] <RQ> ;)
[09:29] <kanid> RQ, because I've gotten all of zero response to my questions in the forums, and very few in IRC
[09:29] <kanid> heh
[09:29] <RQ> dj-fu, or grep (EE) /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[09:29] <RQ> is the same
[09:30] <kanid> any developers in here?
[09:30] <yamathan> "Unexpected token".'
[09:30] <mwe> you can't grep (something) it will fail
[09:30] <Phlosten> im guessing the developers hang out where all the bugs get files
[09:30] <Phlosten> filed
[09:31] <mwe> you need grep '(EE)'
[09:31] <dj-fu> right, sorry
[09:31] <yamathan> It's not getting any instances of EE.
[09:31] <mwe> yamathan: or just grep EE
[09:31] <yamathan> Other than "Loading SCREEN saver", with EE.  : P
[09:31] <mwe> yamathan: you need grep EE or grep '(EE)'
[09:31] <dj-fu> see anything like this, yamathan? (EE) fglrx(0): incompatible kernel module detected - HW accelerated OpenGL will not work
[09:31] <pestilence> so what does everybody use for nzb's?
[09:32] <dj-fu> pwned
[09:32] <aszurom> I had ubuntu installed on /dev/hda1 and a bunch of data on /dev/hdb1.  Formatted and reinstalled hda1, and now when I mount /dev/hdb1 it shows only "lost+found" on it, but fsck reports 11 files, 104 of 114 gig free as it should.
[09:32] <yamathan> Nope.  Nothing like that, dj-fu.
[09:32] <kanid> Phlosten, I tend to find that if a few developers consistently hang out in the forums/IRC channels problems are quicker to be found/fixed
[09:32] <pebs> anyone help me with VMWARE ??
[09:32] <dj-fu> yamathan: if there are no (EE) lines in your Xorg log, then X should be working fine ;[
[09:33] <kanid> Phlosten, at least for other larger projects I've seen
[09:33] <IFlyGTi> I can play mp3 from local drive or stream but not Windows server share, any ideas?
[09:33] <mwe> pebs: maybe if you're more specific
[09:33] <yamathan> OpenAPM failed, as did VBEsetVBE mode.
[09:33] <tomypreach> hey now
[09:33] <tomypreach> RQ ?
[09:33] <RQ> tomypreach, ?
[09:33] <Phlosten> kanid, also remember, ubuntu 6.04 is due to be released very very shortly, so I am assuming the are busy little bees at present
[09:33] <pebs> mwe: i'm trying to share a folder from windows (host) to ubuntu (guest) but it always shows up in nautilus as read-only
[09:34] <tomypreach> it said something about - groupdel
[09:34] <RQ> tomypreach, when did it?
[09:34] <tomypreach> something about it wasnt there
[09:34] <aszurom> anybody got any ideas where the files on /dev/hdb1 went?
[09:34] <pestilence> are there any programs for ubuntu that will create nzb's from a.b.nl?
[09:35] <yamathan> Very, very odd.
[09:35] <pebs> mwe: i've read in the vmware knowledge base that it's a known issue, but i've had it right before
[09:35] <mwe> pebs: is it bridged ot nat'ed?
[09:35] <RQ> tomypreach, maybe your cd is indeed bad/
[09:35] <RQ> ?
[09:35] <tomypreach> i stoped the install  and just finised it. rebooted - start ubuntu - then the password menu - came up , aften typing in the pass - it said - group
[09:35] <pebs> mwe: its shared throuw the vmware workstation options
[09:35] <tomypreach> del
[09:36] <pebs> mwe: its mounted on /mnt/hgfs/
[09:36] <RQ> tomypreach, ?
[09:36] <tomypreach> yes
[09:36] <RQ> groupdel what?
[09:36] <pebs> mwe: i can access it rw from console, but from nautilus it wont let me write
[09:36] <tomypreach> didnt exist
[09:36] <mwe> pebs: It's a while since I used it, but I coud access my homedir through vmware with read/write
[09:36] <TheGuv> if I wanted to rsync to the repos, which directory should I sync to?
[09:37] <TheGuv> ubuntu/ or ubuntu/pool/ ?
[09:37] <tomypreach> damn - it - just ran out of cds
[09:37] <fabs> hello, all
[09:37] <tomypreach> hey hey fabs
[09:37] <pebs> mwe: ive done it tons of times in suse with konqueror and it worked the first time, but it seems to be an issue with gnome
[09:37] <RQ> tomypreach, maybe the ISO you have is broken?
[09:37] <RQ> try md5summing it and compare it with the sums on the server
[09:37] <fabs> hello tomypreach how you doing?
[09:37] <tomypreach> RQ- no it work the first time -
[09:38] <mwe> pebs: you can write as user in the terminal but not from nautilus as the same user?
[09:38] <tomypreach> fabs - i suck at ubuntu , cant make it work
[09:38] <pebs> mwe: thats right
[09:38] <mwe> pebs: that sounds really odd
[09:38] <RQ> tomypreach, :D
[09:38] <Goshawk> hi, what about dvdrip? i've installed it but it does not recognize transcode which is installed..
[09:38] <fabs> tomypreach, new here too but I managed to install it on my laptop dualbooting with XP
[09:38] <pebs> mwe: i can even open a text file from nautilus and edit it, but nautilus wont let me create folders (f. ex.)
[09:38] <RQ> maybe it's a bug somewhere
[09:38] <fabs> Guys anyone goot at GTK+?
[09:39] <tomypreach> yer me to - but i cant type in a password to boot it -
[09:39] <orangey> hey all!
[09:39] <mwe> pebs: hm. and you can mkdir as the user in the terminal though?
[09:39] <tomypreach> i guess password is the hip new thing here - hehe
[09:39] <fabs> tomypreach, what's exactly your probs?
[09:39] <MysticOne> hi all!  umm, quick question ... new to ubuntu (and actually some of these gnome configuration tools).  Anyway, I got this box up and I'm showing wlan0 AND wifi0 in the network configuration dialog ... does it matter which one I use?
[09:39] <yansanmoCMO> Hi, is there a bug with Dapper Drake flight 5 when preparing partitions?
[09:39] <LemMinG> ello all
[09:39] <pebs> mwe: yep, sure
[09:39] <orangey> how do people here manage their GPG keys here?
[09:39] <LemMinG> how do i make a program run as root at startup?
[09:40] <mwe> pebs: I don't know why. it sounds weird
[09:40] <pebs> mwe: the mounting must be fine, its something to do with nautilus
[09:40] <LemMinG> i want F@H to run at startup as root
[09:40] <yansanmoCMO> It seems like it don't go forward after the prepare mount points
[09:40] <pebs> mwe: im thinking in updating gnome
[09:40] <tomypreach> Fabs - the hole install went great - but when i got to the user and password menu - then it Fd up -
[09:40] <tomypreach> fabs - cant type in a password
[09:40] <fabs> MysticOne, shouldn't make much difference, if you use wifi you probably need to type in the WEP pass
[09:40] <tomypreach> something about - groupdel
[09:40] <pebs> mwe: here http://www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=xXNfNO2i&p_lva=&p_faqid=1978&p_created=1134063553&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9ncmlkc29ydD0mcF9yb3dfY250PTE0JnBfc2VhcmNoX3RleHQ9Z25vbWUgcmVhZC1vbmx5JnBfc2VhcmNoX3R5cGU9NyZwX3Byb2RfbHZsMT1_YW55fiZwX3Byb2RfbHZsMj1_YW55fiZwX3NvcnRfYnk9ZGZsdCZwX3BhZ2U9MQ**&p_li=
[09:41] <orangey> pebs: I suggest tinyurl.com : )
[09:41] <fabs> tomypreach, seems like your keyobard stopped then...
[09:41] <mwe> what the hell is that
[09:41] <fabs> Anyone good at GTK??
[09:41] <RQ> tomypreach, try booting it with single rescue parameters
[09:41] <mwe> that's about the crappiest URL I've ever seen
[09:41] <pebs> mwe: sorry
[09:41] <tomypreach> RQ - how ?
[09:42] <RQ> you have grub installed, right?
[09:42] <tomypreach> yes
[09:42] <pebs> mwe: there you go http://tinyurl.com/pl2au
[09:42] <RQ> do you see its menu?
[09:42] <tomypreach> sure -
[09:42] <MysticOne> fabs: yeah, I've been entering the WEP key into the dialog too, and neither one of them seems to work (unless I've got the key wrong... but it should be correct)
[09:42] <tomypreach> rescue mode
[09:42] <MysticOne> fabs: dmesg says it's unable to retrieve current WEP settings
[09:42] <tomypreach> ?
[09:43] <MysticOne> fabs: (it's a Dlink DWL-520 Revision E)
[09:43] <RQ> tomypreach, then select the entry you want, press E, go to a line with parameters and press E again, then add "single rescue" to the end of it
[09:43] <LemMinG> can anyone tell me how to do what i'm asking?
[09:43] <fabs> MysticOne, yes I am having same probs on my laptop dunno how to fix that...
[09:43] <MysticOne> hmmm...
[09:43] <RQ> tomypreach, or even better
[09:43] <mwe> pebs: it seems nautilus is broken
[09:43] <MysticOne> okay, maybe I'll have to tinker with it for a while
[09:43] <tomypreach> okey
[09:43] <RQ> add an "init=/bin/sh" line
[09:43] <tomypreach> ill try -
[09:43] <RQ> with no rescue or single
[09:43] <tomypreach> me ?
[09:43] <MysticOne> ultimately, wireless isn't that important, but I wanted to update it before I hand it off to the grandmother :D
[09:43] <fabs> MysticOne, let me know if you have any luck!!
[09:43] <RQ> tomypreach, yes you
[09:43] <pebs> mwe: the odd thing is permissions are RW for everything except nautilus, which makes it a real pain
[09:44] <tomypreach> kool
[09:44] <RQ> tomypreach, this will give you the root console
[09:44] <mwe> pebs: report a bug
[09:44] <MysticOne> fabs: do you have any experience in getting winmodems to work?  The Device Manager sees it, but network connections says it can't find it (though it does show an entry for it)
[09:44] <tomypreach> yer
[09:44] <RQ> tomypreach, where you can attempt to fix things
[09:44] <pebs> mwe: bugzilla?
[09:44] <mwe> pebs: in the meantime use a working file manager
[09:44] <RQ> MysticOne, winmodems require drivers
[09:44] <fabs> MysticOne, sorry no much, I've only installed Ubuntu last night :/
[09:44] <fabs> RQ, any good at GTK?
[09:45] <tomypreach> what do i do - when i get to root consol ?
[09:45] <MysticOne> RQ: drivers aside from what comes with Ubuntu?
[09:45] <mwe> pebs: yeah. gnome bugzilla or the ubuntu one or both
[09:45] <fabs> MysticOne, I think so
[09:45] <RQ> fabs, define the problem?
[09:45] <bimberi> LemMinG: is F@h a gui app that you run as the user or a script?
[09:45] <RQ> MysticOne, might be
[09:45] <MysticOne> RQ: it's a Lucent winmodem, apparently ... like I said, the device manager shows it :)
[09:45] <LemMinG> it's an app bimberi that runs as user
[09:45] <RQ> MysticOne, google for it on ubuntu or on linux
[09:45] <RQ> tomypreach, dunno. ;D
[09:46] <tomypreach> RQ - what should i do when i get to the consol, i see the password is the problem . hmm
[09:46] <fabs> RQ, I am trying to lunch a bash file just by pressing a button on a GTK form I am making but how do you handle the sudo command?
[09:46] <pebs> mwe: im in ubuntu 5.10 w/ all updates and im running nautilus 2.12.1
[09:46] <tomypreach> all right
[09:46] <LemMinG> i have to use sudo to run it but i want it to run at startup automatically regardles of whether i'm logged in or not
[09:46] <tomypreach> cya - bababooey
[09:46] <RQ> tomypreach, try to find out where the problem is
[09:46] <pebs> mwe: in the nautilus homepage it tells me the latest stable is 2.12.0
[09:46] <RQ> fabs, use gksu?
[09:46] <pebs> mwe: maybe thats whats broken
[09:46] <andrea_> hello everybody
[09:46] <mwe> pebs: yeah. nautilus still seems to be broken regarding those shared folders
[09:46] <fabs> RQ, oh what's that?
[09:46] <bimberi> LemMinG: you can add it to System -> Preferences -> Startup Items
[09:46] <RQ> fabs, graphical sudo
[09:46] <pebs> mwe: what other filemanager is there for gnome?
[09:46] <dv_> I really miss a way to mount samba shares permanently in ubuntu
[09:46] <LemMinG> will that run it as root though bimberi?
[09:47] <fabs> RQ, oohh thanks a lot will need to document myself on that then ;)
[09:47] <Phlosten> pebs, gnome commander?
[09:47] <dv_> without gnomevfs, just the good ol' fstab
[09:47] <RQ> fabs, try it first before thanking. :))
[09:47] <dv_> (well, I can edit it.... but shouldnt there be a gui for adding samba shares?)
[09:47] <mwe> pebs: I don't really know. there's mc for the console, or use konqueror if you have it
[09:47] <pebs> mwe: konqueror in gnome?
[09:47] <bimberi> LemMinG: if you sudo it
[09:48] <Phlosten> pebs, works fine in gnome
[09:48] <LemMinG> yeah but then won't it ask for a password?
[09:48] <mwe> pebs: why not
[09:48] <fabs> RQ, ehe sure but I am still jotting down what I need before I make anything concrete... Just need a little 1window app to copy a file from Dekstop to usr
[09:48] <pebs> mwe, ok
[09:48] <LemMinG> and will it start it before i log in?
[09:48] <pebs> mwe, ill try
[09:48] <mwe> pebs: unless you're really short on ram
[09:48] <mwe> pebs: it will load the kdelibs
[09:48] <mwe> pebs: they will be released when you're done though
[09:49] <bimberi> LemMinG: yes it will ask for your password, but there are ways to set up the sudoers file to not ask for passwords for some commands - 'man sudoers' for details
[09:49] <pebs> mwe, i got 512mb for the ubuntu VM
[09:49] <LemMinG> kk
[09:49] <fabs> RQ, in fact I am still trying a little HelloWorld in Anjuta
[09:49] <mwe> pebs: that should be more than enough
[09:49] <dv_> bimberi, sounds like he wants to add something to the init.d folder
[09:49] <bimberi> LemMinG: no, that dialog configures startup items for when you log into gnome
[09:49] <iXce> another issue :/ i installed xfmedia and now my gnome-session-properties looks broken :/ it's willing to edit autostart apps in /etc/xdg/autostart :s
[09:49] <bimberi> dv_: gui app though (if i understand gorrectly)
[09:50] <bimberi> *correctly
[09:50] <RQ> fabs, good luck then ;)
[09:50] <fmasi> hi how can i make mu breezy updtae my gnome to 2.14
[09:50] <RQ> iXce, you're unclear
[09:50] <dv_> LemMinG, what app shall startup automatically?
[09:50] <fabs> RQ, thanks ;)
[09:50] <iXce> oh?
[09:50] <LemMinG> folding at home dv_
[09:50] <dv_> ?
[09:50] <dv_> whats that?
[09:50] <LemMinG> kinda like seti
[09:50] <RQ> LemMinG, it doesn't need root rights
[09:51] <iXce> i gives me an error when i delete or add an autostart app (in the console)
[09:51] <iXce> could not save /etc/xdg/autostart/...
[09:51] <LemMinG> RQ, i installed it and it won't run unless it's root
[09:51] <pebs> mwe: thanks for the help
[09:51] <RQ> LemMinG, well fix it instead running it as root
[09:51] <dv_> "folding at home"
[09:52] <dv_> what does that do?
[09:52] <RQ> dv_, folding.stanford.edu
[09:52] <pebs> mwe: how r u feeling about fedora core 5 btw?
[09:52] <RQ> it uses your free CPU for calculating an anti-cancer formula, to be short
[09:52] <mwe> pebs: I'm not in the mood to beeing a red hat beta tester
[09:52] <pebs> mwe: hehe
[09:52] <RQ> dv_, it uses your free CPU for calculating an anti-cancer formula, to be short
[09:52] <pebs> mwe: so whats your type?
[09:53] <pebs> mwe: (of distro)
[09:53] <LemMinG> rq just tried to run it without sudo
[09:53] <RQ> LemMinG, i have a few instances of folding running on a few boxes. and they're never run as root
[09:53] <dv_> RQ, ok but why does this need root rights?
[09:53] <mwe> pebs: ubuntu
[09:53] <mwe> pebs: debian stable for servers
[09:53] <RQ> dv_ it doesn't
[09:53] <LemMinG> asks me to onfigure it and then dies when it tries to write the config file
[09:53] <WebLOCH> hey guys
[09:53] <RQ> dv_ it just needs write access to a folder it is in ;)
[09:53] <pebs> mwe: right
[09:53] <RQ> LemMinG, exactly
[09:53] <RQ> LemMinG, wait a sexc
[09:53] <RQ> sec*
[09:53] <dv_> LemMinG, then I guess you started it once as root, it wrote the config file as root,
[09:53] <WebLOCH> followed the guid for installing apache2  and php4, but for some reason when i call a php page my browser tries to download it... any ideas?
[09:53] <mwe> pebs: I quite fond of freebsd for servers as well though
[09:53] <dv_> thus the config file has root/root owner
[09:54] <pebs> mwe: i c
[09:54] <LemMinG> dv_, i think it's cause i installed it as root
[09:54] <pebs> mwe: well, gotta go, nice meeting you, bye!
[09:54] <LemMinG> was following the wiki guide
[09:54] <RQ> LemMinG, no no no. don't run it as root
[09:54] <phiber_optic> why when I log into my shell it says u have new mail and I ddint set up any mail ?
[09:54] <LemMinG> so now how i do change the permissions?
[09:54] <LemMinG> rq too late
[09:55] <RQ> LemMinG, you can always reinstall it
[09:55] <bimberi> LemMinG: find the config file and run 'sudo chown <user>:<user> /path/to/file'
[09:55] <RQ> or simply change the permissions of the folder it is in
[09:55] <RQ> LemMinG, where did you install it to?
[09:55] <phiber_optic> why when I log into my shell it says u have new mail and I ddint set up any mail ??
[09:56] <RQ> phiber_optic, it's local mai;
[09:56] <mwe> phiber_optic: it's probably some system daemon
[09:56] <RQ> mail
[09:56] <RQ> from local apps
[09:57] <WebLOCH> has mplayer been removed from the repos?
[09:57] <phiber_optic> RQ, how do I check it?
[09:57] <mwe> phiber_optic: type 'mail' to read it
[09:57] <RQ> phiber_optic, less /var/mail/`whoami`
[09:57] <Seveas> WebLOCH, no
[09:58] <phiber_optic> ok thanx
[09:58] <LemMinG> RQ, /opt/foldingathome
[09:58] <LemMinG> default directory
[09:58] <C-O-L-T> How to mount ntfs drive?
[09:58] <RQ> LemMinG, ok...
[09:58] <LemMinG> actually got 4 installs under that directory as it's a quad core machine
[09:58] <RQ> LemMinG, well i can help you fix it if you want
[09:58] <RQ> ;D
[09:59] <phiber_optic> thanx guys
[09:59] <LemMinG> lol
[09:59] <mwe> !tell C-O-L-T about ntfs
[09:59] <RQ> LemMinG, i mean the root rights problem
[09:59] <netman1> Hi All. Just installed Breezy, am already convinced that I will drop Debian as a desktop ;-) However switching to console (Ctrl-Alt-Fx) does not work. Is this deliberate or am I doing something wrong?
[09:59] <LemMinG> ... phiber wtf you doing here?
[09:59] <LemMinG> yeah that would be nice
[09:59] <LemMinG> what command do i need to type in to fix it
[10:00] <mwe> netman1: it works here
[10:00] <Phlosten> LemMinG, are you running F@H as root still?
[10:00] <RQ> LemMinG, ok. so let's start with the setup. you have /opt/foldingathome/<what's here?>
[10:00] <Inf3ctedFX> Hello ppl
[10:00] <RQ> hi Inf3ctedFX
[10:00] <LemMinG> folders labeled 1 2 3 & 4 for the 4 difference instances
[10:00] <LemMinG> they all need their own working folder
[10:00] <Inf3ctedFX> Quick question, I  just install kernel 2.6.12-10-686 can I now remove the kernel 2.6.12-10-386 or u guys recomment leve it there?
[10:00] <RQ> LemMinG, great
[10:00] <RQ> now let's create a foldingathome user ;)
[10:00] <netman1> mwe: Only way I get my console back is by stopping gdm :-(
[10:01] <LemMinG> kk
[10:01] <Inf3ctedFX> what is the kernel drapper has??? kernel 2.6.15-10-686.???
[10:01] <mwe> netman1: I don't know why

[10:02] <Inf3ctedFX> So u guys recomment just leave the 386?
[10:02] <LemMinG> home dir already exists
[10:02] <RQ> LemMinG, hm. ok. whois foldingathome
[10:03] <RQ> Inf3ctedFX, i change it to -686 on the boxes I install.
[10:03] <LemMinG> ???
[10:03] <Inf3ctedFX> RQ,  IS THE 2.6.15-18.386? is the one drapper use?
[10:03] <RQ> LemMinG, ah, the homedir
[10:03] <RQ> i thought it's the user that exists
[10:03] <LemMinG> both do
[10:03] <LemMinG> that was what it said when i entered that command
[10:03] <netman1> mwe: When I press Ctrl-Alt-F1 with gnome-terminal open I get P, with Ctrl-Alt-F2 Q, F3 R, F4 S, F5 ;7~, F6 ;7~
[10:03] <RQ> LemMinG, sudo adduser --home /opt/foldingathome/ --disabled-password --no-create-home foldingathome

[10:04] <Inf3ctedFX> now RQ  i'm running breezy I was trying to run drapper but I couldn't .. so can I upgrade to the kernel 2.6.15-18-686 on breezy? RQ
[10:04] <RQ> yes
[10:04] <sfar-ubu> noob-question: can i un-root myself in terminal without closing the terminal
[10:04] <LemMinG> adduser: The user `foldingathome' already exists.
[10:04] <RQ> Inf3ctedFX, apt-get install linux-image-686
[10:04] <mwe> netman1: what's that, sorry. I don't quite understand
[10:04] <Inf3ctedFX> well i'm looking for that kernel on synaptic and I cannot find it RQ
[10:04] <RQ> LemMinG, where's his homedir
[10:04] <RQ> ?
[10:04] <Inf3ctedFX> oohh  let me try that one
[10:05] <bimberi> sfar-ubu: did you use 'sudo -i' or the like?  if so use ctrl-D to exit that root shell
[10:05] <mwe> katarot: ok. there's an error in there
[10:05] <LemMinG> ... it's set to /opt/foldingathome
[10:05] <RQ> LemMinG, ok
[10:05] <RQ> LemMinG, then it's absolutely easy
[10:05] <Inf3ctedFX> RQ,  the one install here was the 6.12.10
[10:05] <Inf3ctedFX> not the onther one
[10:05] <_jason> sfar-ubu: if you su'd to root you can just type 'exit'.  I think you can just 'su' to another user if you wish
[10:05] <mwe> katarot: actually I need dmesg further up. like dmesg -n 60. sorry :|
[10:05] <RQ> LemMinG, what group does he belong to?
[10:06] <Inf3ctedFX> RQ,  this is the one I have right now kernel 2.6.12-10-686

[10:06] <RQ> Inf3ctedFX, that doesn't matter
[10:06] <LemMinG> how do i tell that rq?
[10:06] <katarot> mwe: lmao brb
[10:06] <RQ> Inf3ctedFX, -686 is always available
[10:06] <netman1> mwe: When I try to switch to the first console from gnome and I press 'Ctrl-Alt-F1' and I have gnome-terminal active, it responds by giving an 'P' back in the gnome-terminal window.

[10:07] <mwe> netman1: huh. that's odd
[10:07] <RQ> LemMinG, and what's its name?
[10:07] <RQ> foldingathome, too ?
[10:07] <Inf3ctedFX> instead the 2.6.12   the 2.15.18

[10:07] <RQ> not a huge difference
[10:07] <RQ> LemMinG, sudo chown -R foldingathome /opt/foldingathome
[10:07] <mwe> netman1: are all your keyboard keys mapped correctly including ctrl and alt? xev should help you confirm it
[10:07] <RQ> err no
[10:08] <RQ> LemMinG, sudo chown -R foldingathome:foldingathome /opt/foldingathome
[10:08] <BBoudreaux> Does anyone know of any good free C++ compilers?
[10:08] <LemMinG> done
[10:08] <dv_> gcc?

[10:13] <eirejah> cool :)
[10:13] <mwe> goodi_: is the nvidia driver installed for that kernel?
[10:14] <lextul> how can i get the network config wizzard from the installation ? this one in textmode with blue background ? sudo dpgk-reconfigure network or resolv is not the right command ...
[10:14] <frank__> migege: the easy way to install the nvidia driver with synaptic instead
[10:14] <goodi_> mwe, yes and now:) it does not load - but if you say -it should work Ill reinvestigate it:)
[10:14] <Whatsisname> hmm

[10:15] <migege> with gparted
[10:16] <Whatsisname> you are running the risk of spontaneously destroying your ntfs partitions
[10:16] <dav_the_man> you just need to get the propor plugins for the formating tool

[10:18] <cratel2_> how can I get my box to log itself in automatically if I don't have gdm installed?
[10:18] <dav_the_man> you have to modeify some gnome settings

[10:19] <WebLOCH> Hey guys, I followed the guide on installing apache2 and php4 yet again and this time it wont parse php files!?  It worked every other time and im very confused... any suggestions?
[10:19] <Whatsisname> what the hell is going on in here
[10:19] <migege> but just kdm can load
[10:19] <migege> ubuntu
[10:19] <dav_the_man> kdm and gdm are two diffrent managers i dont' think they can load at the same time
[10:19] <migege> not the same time
[10:19] <migege> but i can load just gdm
[10:20] <dav_the_man> sure
[10:20] <ltibor65> Its interesting. From Windows XP I can write ext2/3 partitions. And NTFS from Linux not safely and not reccomended?
[10:20] <RQ> bah
[10:20] <netman1> mwe: You gave 'ctrl code 37, alt 64 and f1 57' as keycodes for Ctrl-Alt-F1, I get 37, 64 and 67 (on 2 different machines) so I guess you made a typo?
[10:20] <mwe> netman1: f1 should be 67
[10:20] <Cooner750> Hello.
[10:20] <migege> no?
[10:20] <Cooner750> What command do I use to install a *.deb package
[10:20] <netman1> Ok, thanks.
[10:20] <frank__> ltibor65: it's because M$ never released specs for ntfs. it's not an open filesystem
[10:20] <Seveas> !deb
[10:20] <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)
[10:20] <Whatsisname> dpkg -i
[10:20] <_jason> !deb
[10:21] <Cooner750> thanks
[10:21] <dav_the_man> ok forget graphicaly does anyone know what files to edit to make a wireless lan device work, and yes it works with the linux kernal

[10:22] <WebLOCH> ANyone have any idea how to solve my apache/php proble,?
[10:22] <cfh_dev_> I've tried adding /etc/hotplug/blacklist but can't get the module listed in blacklist to quit loading.  What else can I do?
[10:23] <netman1> dav : the only thing I had to do was add 'pre-up iwconfig ath0 essid ESSID' to my /etc/network/interfaces
[10:23] <dav_the_man> are you using appache one or 2
[10:23] <WebLOCH> dav_the_man, apache2
[10:23] <dav_the_man> because 2 has had problems with php
[10:23] <frank__> dav_the_man: can't you use the gnome configuration tools for that?
[10:23] <WebLOCH> dav_the_man, i followed the guide perfectly :(
[10:23] <RQ> cfh_dev, maybe it's not hotplug that loads it?
[10:23] <WebLOCH> dav_the_man, its never done this before
[10:23] <mwe> dav_the_man: you need to load the correct driver then ifconfig -a to list the interface. then sudo ifconfig <interface> up then iwconfig essid your_essid <interfac> then dhclient <interface> usually
[10:23] <dav_the_man> i'm not a big expert on appachy BUT some php coders had to switch to verson one to make it work
[10:23] <cfh_dev_> RQ: is there a way to find out what loads it?  The module is prism54.
[10:24] <mwe> dav_the_man: all using sudo
[10:25] <RQ> cfh_dev, dunno
[10:26] <vanscorpion> hello
[10:27] <_jason> WebLOCH: with php5 mine got setup without problems (it created a file in /etc/apache2/mods-available/), but you may have to uncomment two lines in your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, grep for php and if you aren't sure which two I am referring to just let me know and I'll take a look
[10:27] <Whatsisname> hey Tekhne
[10:27] <sp0rk> tekhne is here?

[10:27] <V4Vendetta> vanscorpion, DONOT make a 20gig swapfile
[10:27] <nalioth> vanscorpion: any swap over 768mb is wasted
[10:27] <Whatsisname> Tekhne,
[10:28] <Whatsisname> say something
[10:28] <_jason> vanscorpion: it wastes space basically
[10:28] <V4Vendetta> nalioth, and usually you don't need a swap at all :-P
[10:28] <Whatsisname> vanscorpion, won't do jack squat
[10:28] <sp0rk> you're all jews
[10:28] <WebLOCH> _jason, i just found out whats up, one of the packages that you need isnt listedn in the guide anymore

[10:32] <MasterC> whats wrong with it?
[10:32] <_jason> WebLOCH: sure, the appropriate place is after ``$ sudo apt-get install php4'', you agree?
[10:33] <tomypreach> ahhh, the feeling of freesoft ware - damn i need another beer,
[10:33] <murph2481> if i reinstall from the CD and do not reformat my drive

[10:33] <sp0rk> Do you know what a Jewish dilemma is?
[10:33] <sp0rk> Free ham.
[10:33] <painkiler> what is a good itunes clone?
[10:34] <TheMinion> i have two problems, the first is that after installing ubuntu following the instructions in the documentation for installing when windows is on also, when i select windows to boot from it tells me hal.dll is missing
[10:34] <anto9us> murph2481, not all of them no, most applications store their settings in /home
[10:34] <SoulPropagation> sp0rk: I'd eat it
[10:34] <_jason> WebLOCH: done
[10:34] <Whatsisname> i think rythmbox is kinda like a itunes clone
[10:34] <painkiler> no
[10:34] <dav_the_man> if you just simply try to write over your data it probibly wont' turn out good
[10:34] <dav_the_man> are you trying to update your system?
[10:34] <painkiler> someone gave me one the other day
[10:34] <WebLOCH> _jason, good man, what a pain that was!
[10:34] <dav_the_man> you can use apt get
[10:34] <painkiler> it started with a
[10:34] <tomypreach> painkiller - do you need it for your ipob to ?
[10:34] <painkiler> yeah
[10:34] <Jimmey__> When I log in, just before the desktop wallpaper appears, the screen turns to the Ubuntu-default brown colour, how can I change that?
[10:34] <murph2481> anto9us cool i am having misc issues and thinking re-installing makes sense to fix most/all of them
[10:34] <Whatsisname> i think by changing your splash screen Jimmey__
[10:34] <SoulPropagation> Is there a show desktop plugin that doesn't restore everything when you try to pop up one window?
[10:34] <Whatsisname> uh
[10:35] <tomypreach> Yer , me to
[10:35] <Whatsisname> art.gnome.org will tell you more about it
[10:35] <Jimmey__> I've changed that, and the splash screen that I've selected appears, before the brown backdrop
[10:35] <murph2481> anto9us I have another computer running the same stuff and no issues...its all cups that is throwing a fit and after trying to reintall numerous times i am out of suggestions
[10:35] <TheMinion> after installing ubuntu on my windows machine, following the instructions to make it dual boot in the installation documentation, when i select windows in grub it tells me hal.dll is missing.
[10:36] <SynapseRecall> :-P
[10:36] <katarot> mwe:http://pastebin.com/609702
[10:36] <SoulPropagation> That's Windows' way of saying "Sorry, TheMinion, I can't let you do that."
[10:36] <sp0rk> Why are there so many homes for battered women?
[10:36] <sp0rk> Because they just don't fucking listen!!
[10:36] <SynapseRecall> sp0rk, is still here
[10:36] <SynapseRecall> that's funny
[10:36] <TheMinion> is there a way to fix it without having to reinstall windows?
[10:36] <anto9us> murph2481, yeah, cups is a bit of a nightmare, if re-installing pay attention to your /var and /opt folders for settings and applications too
[10:36] <SynapseRecall> such a joke
[10:36] <painkiler> and are there any guides to compiling quake3?
[10:36] <WebLOCH> Bye everyone!
[10:37] <SoulPropagation> TheMinion: Recovery terminal from the XP bootdisk
[10:37] <TheMinion> i dunno how to get there or to use that
[10:37] <vanscorpion> bye thanks for the help
[10:37] <Whatsisname> np
[10:37] <TheMinion> i put the windows disk in but it just wanted to reinstall, i didn't see a recovery terminal option
[10:37] <SoulPropagation> Put XP installdisc in, wait until it loads, do the recovery console option, and get to the prompt, and type fixmbr
[10:38] <SoulPropagation> TheMinion: Wait, what version of windows
[10:38] <murph2481> anto9us what about my emails in kontact will that all go away when i reinstall?
[10:38] <TheMinion> pro
[10:38] <SoulPropagation> TheMinion: XP?
[10:38] <TheMinion> *cough* professional End user edition
[10:38] <anto9us> murph2481, I guess they'd be in your ~ folder but could be under /var, I don't use kde
[10:38] <mwe> katarot: I think the ndiswrapper module might be broken :| is the windows driver you installed a random one or one that's supposed to be recommended for your card with ndiswrapper?
[10:38] <TheMinion> yes, xp
[10:39] <SoulPropagation> Just hit R when it's done loading\
[10:39] <Travis_> does anyone know anything about creating .deb packageS?
[10:39] <TheMinion> ok, thanks
[10:39] <Travis_> I am getting errors?
[10:39] <murph2481> anto9us thanks ...no one was answering me in the kubuntu page so i tried here :)
[10:39] <TheMinion> then once i get there what do i do?
[10:39] <SoulPropagation> Put XP installdisc in, wait until it loads, do the recovery console option, and get to the prompt, and type fixmbr
[10:39] <anto9us> murph2481, look for a folder named .kontact in your ~
[10:39] <TheMinion> ok, and after that?
[10:39] <XhyldazhK> hi alll
[10:40] <TheMinion> or will it do everything for me?
[10:40] <SoulPropagation> TheMinion: it'll fix it
[10:40] <TheMinion> ok, thanks much
[10:40] <XhyldazhK> anyone knows in which package is /usr/include/GL/gl.h ? i need badly that file, but I don't know which package ships it....
[10:40] <TheMinion> also, i want to set my refresh rate to 75 like it is in windows but the only selection i have in the display options is 60
[10:40] <Seveas> XhyldazhK, libgl-mesa-dev
[10:41] <Seveas> !find gl.h
[10:41] <SynapseRecall> hi seveas
[10:41] <MysticOne> has anyone here gotten a dlink 520 wireless card working under ubuntu 5.10 (freshly installed from CDs) ... I'm getting an error saying "no PRI f/w", which I'm assuming refers to the firmware of the card.  I got it according to the acx100.sf.net site's directions, put it in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware, but it still doesn't work
[10:41] <Seveas> hi
[10:41] <MysticOne> so I'm stumped :(
[10:41] <SynapseRecall> :-D
[10:41] <ltibor65> Is Dapper better than Breezy? It's worth to change to Dapper?
[10:41] <SoulPropagation> ltibor65: it's still in beta testing
[10:41] <SynapseRecall> dapper is in developement still
[10:41] <anto9us> XhyldazhK, type apt-cache search gl.h
[10:41] <Seveas> XhyldazhK, libgl1-mesa-dev that is
[10:41] <Seveas> anto9us, won't work 
[10:41] <Whatsisname> neither "better" nor "worse" would be the proper adjective
[10:42] <TheMinion> is there a way to set the refresh rate higher than 60? 60 is my only option.
[10:42] <XhyldazhK> Seveas: I have that installed but I think nvidia-glx-dev does nasty stuff with it so I cannot have GL headers
[10:42] <SoulPropagation> TheMinion: drivers.
[10:42] <Whatsisname> dapper biffed my computer and I had to reinstall 5.10
[10:42] <SoulPropagation> Is there a show desktop plugin that doesn't restore everything when you try to pop up one window?
[10:42] <SynapseRecall> Whatsisname, well actually, for the average user it would be 'worse' since it tends to break.
[10:42] <Seveas> XhyldazhK, icky
[10:42] <TheMinion> ok, thanks
[10:42] <mtlhead> hey, is there anyway to make it so my sound card will work with more than one program at a time?
[10:42] <XhyldazhK> Seveas: what can i do?
[10:42] <Seveas> never had that package installed, so can't help more...
[10:42] <anto9us> Seveas, what's wrong with it? please share your wisdom :)
[10:42] <TheMinion> thanks for the help, i am gonna go try the recovery thing now
[10:42] <Seveas> anto9us, apt-cache searches packages, not files
[10:42] <VikJES> TheMinion, I usually set the "VertRefresh" and "HorizSync" lines manually in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and you can then set the refresh rate to the maximum setting available for your monitor
[10:42] <Whatsisname> mtlhead, it doesnt do that on it's own?
[10:43] <Whatsisname> do oyu have some ancient sound card?
[10:43] <SoulPropagation> Whatsisname: Some drivers don't let multiple programs use sound
[10:43] <XhyldazhK> hmm
[10:43] <SynapseRecall> Whatsisname, it's due to OSS not due to the age of the soundcard
[10:43] <mtlhead> Whatsisname, no, i cant hear anything from other programs if i have music playing
[10:43] <orangey> hey all.. Something I'm wondering: I can't seem to sign anything with ubuntu breezy! What's the deal? It seems like something is wrong with GPGME
[10:43] <Whatsisname> who still uses OSS
[10:43] <mtlhead> i have a new mac G6
[10:43] <mtlhead> 5*
[10:43] <SynapseRecall> ubotu, tell mtlhead about dmix
[10:43] <mtlhead> sorry
[10:43] <Whatsisname> i thought everyone used ALSA rofl
[10:43] <orangey> is this a common problem?
[10:44] <SynapseRecall> Whatsisname, alot of Programs use oss though
[10:44] <void^> it's not age but bad hardware with no hardware mixers
[10:44] <mikebot> can someone help me with some php?
[10:44] <Seveas> mikebot, #php
[10:44] <mikebot> Seveas, they aren't very responsive/helpful
[10:44] <Seveas> bad luck then 
[10:44] <WebLOCH> _jason, you still there, i have anotger issue :(
[10:44] <Seveas> mikebot, #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:44] <baquero22> is there a big performance difference between an intel procesor and the latest amd64??
[10:45] <tomypreach> bababooey to all of you !!
[10:45] <mikebot> Seveas, thanks
[10:45] <mtlhead> oh, ubotu is a bot
[10:45] <mtlhead> lol
[10:45] <_jason> WebLOCH: sure, I was actually going to tell you that php4 depends on libapache2-mod-php4, so it should have gotten installed.  I made a note in the troubleshooting section
[10:45] <mtlhead> alsa is enabled on my computer
[10:46] <WebLOCH> _jason, ahh cool stuff, i tried accessing phpmyadmin and it brought up the save dialog :P  for "" do you have any ideas?
[10:46] <bjornkri> hey hey
[10:46] <_jason> WebLOCH: nope
[10:46] <WebLOCH> would you mind giving me the permissions on your /var/www/phpmyadmin/   ?
[10:46] <bjornkri> wasn't there a list of supported games and apps on wine somewhere?
[10:47] <ltibor65> Linux is better than BSD?
[10:47] <Whatsisname> probably on winehq
[10:47] <_jason> WebLOCH: I wouldn't but I don't run phpmyadmin (I'm sure other people here do though)
[10:47] <Whatsisname> ltibor65, don't go there :)
[10:47] <mwe> bjornkri: not much. frankscorner.org is one source
[10:47] <mtlhead> my error says: Please check that: your soundcard is configured properly, you have the correct output plugin selected, no other program is blocking the soundcard
[10:47] <SoulPropagation> ltibor65: They both have their advantages
[10:47] <WebLOCH> Anyone here running phpmyadmin with a few minutes spare?
[10:47] <bjornkri> thanks mwe, I'll check it out
[10:47] <mtlhead> alsa is on
[10:48] <Tekhne> Whatsisname: hey. sorry, i was browsing the web.
[10:48] <Whatsisname> Tekhne,
[10:48] <Whatsisname> does [M]  mean anything to you?
[10:48] <st3v3dnd> I just installed Firestarter to manager my firewall, but noticed that it doesn't automatically load up when I login to my box. Is the firewall always running, or only when I start Firestarter?
[10:48] <Tekhne> Whatsisname: [M] ? no, it doesn't.
[10:48] <Seveas> st3v3dnd, always
[10:48] <Whatsisname> ok, nevermind then
[10:48] <Whatsisname> I thought you were someone else
[10:48] <Tekhne> why?
[10:48] <Tekhne> ah
[10:49] <Tekhne> nope, i'm me =] 
[10:49] <Seveas> Tekhne, you sure?
[10:49] <bliggy> Can someone explain to me how to get write privelige to an external HD formatted in fat32?
[10:49] <Tekhne> well, hmm...
[10:49] <Seveas> bliggy, add umask=0000 to the mount option
[10:49] <Stormx2> Horray for power cuts :D
[10:49] <st3v3dnd> Thanks Seveas.
[10:49] <Tekhne> okay, i found more mplayer refs for ubuntu on the wiki, but the instructions aren't working for me.
[10:49] <bliggy> is that in fstab?
[10:49] <Tekhne> hmm
[10:49] <Seveas> Tekhne, breezy or dapper?
[10:49] <Tekhne> breezy
[10:50] <WebLOCH> _jason, i think it might be because phpmyadmin uses a symlink to the actual folder... is there a way of enabling symlinks for everything ?
[10:50] <bliggy> seveas is that in etc/fstab?
[10:50] <Seveas> Tekhne, add multiverse, apt-get install mplayer-586
[10:50] <chris> hello all i was wondering if someone could be ever so kind and help me with a problem i am having?
[10:50] <Seveas> bliggy, yup
[10:50] <Tekhne> Seveas: yea, i tried that. doesn't seem to work.
[10:50] <bliggy> seveas thank you
[10:50] <Seveas> bliggy, it probably says 'defaults' now, make that defaults,umask=0000
[10:50] <dav_the_man> chris go ahead
[10:50] <Seveas> Tekhne, sources.list on the pastebin please
[10:50] <Tekhne> Seveas: i'm using kubunt, and i added multiverse through adept...i'll paste
[10:51] <bliggy> seveas... thank you... i'm looking now
[10:51] <Tekhne> Seveas: what url for pasting? didn't see anything in topic...or is it in the faq?
[10:51] <Seveas> !pastebin
[10:51] <mwe> how do you know if you need mplayer-386, 586 or 686?
[10:51] <Seveas> ubotu, ping
[10:51] <ubotu> pong
[10:51] <Seveas> !paste
[10:51] <chris> i need to get 2 things installed and i can' seem to do it, i need to get java installed and a ssh client so i can connect to my server is there a way you can explain to me how to do so i have tried apt-get install sun-j2re1.5
[10:51] <chris>  dosn't work
[10:51] <dav_the_man> what ever prossesor you have
[10:51] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[10:52] <TheGuv> mwe, depend on the processor
[10:52] <TheGuv> mwe, what processor do you have?
[10:52] <Installer36> !pastebin
[10:52] <ubotu> methinks pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[10:52] <mwe> TheGuv: yeah. does anyone have a 386 in ubuntu?
[10:52] <mwe> TheGuv: I have a pentium-m
[10:52] <Whatsisname> like, 75mhz 386?
[10:52] <Tekhne> Seveas: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10471
[10:52] <Whatsisname> or 386 compatible?
[10:52] <TheGuv> mwe, 686 would probably work for pentium-m
[10:52] <Archaios> How do I revert to the default 5.10 repositories?
[10:53] <mwe> yeah
[10:53] <Seveas> Tekhne, yeah that one's broken
[10:53] <fluxt> ubotu: tell chris about java
[10:53] <Tekhne> Seveas: ah, okay. can you tell me how to fix it?
[10:53] <TheGuv> 686 = pentium 2 and up+
[10:53] <Seveas> Tekhne, find a correct one on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[10:53] <mtlhead> anyone have any ideas for my sound problem
[10:53] <mwe> so what's up with the mplayer-386 package?
[10:53] <ftwig> hi, trying to get rsync working.  I set up /etc/rsync.conf and created a section for my home directory, the command I used was 'rsync -avx 192.168.1.90::ben'.  All it did was list the files, it did not actualy create any.
[10:54] <anto9us> chris, ssh client is installed by default, to install the server type sudo apt-get install ssh
[10:54] <dav_the_man> mwe, if your not sure use 386 it just won't be optimized
[10:54] <Inf3ctedFX> Hello gus again
[10:54] <splinterfl> Hi all..  I normally use Gentoo  but I like the look of ubuntu...

[10:57] <bliggy> Seveas, thank you again
[10:57] <Inf3ctedFX> what is the kernel framebuffer device interface?
[10:57] <dav_the_man> whats your skype problem?
[10:57] <Yokalosh> cici if you go on the slype website they have repos for us
[10:57] <Inf3ctedFX> cici
[10:57] <Yokalosh> and then its easy
[10:57] <FizDev> cici: try using Automatix
[10:58] <Yokalosh> *skype
[10:58] <Inf3ctedFX> download thew easy ubuntu
[10:58] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell cici about skype
[10:58] <sfar-ubu> can i un-root myself in terminal?
[10:58] <fluxt> mtlhead: and particular programs that you're using?
[10:58] <Seveas> FizDev, automatix is a virus
[10:58] <Inf3ctedFX> the skype came with it
[10:58] <mtlhead> xmms
[10:58] <mtlhead> for music
[10:58] <Seveas> you should not use it and definitely not advise it
[10:58] <Tekhne> ok, by all. enjoy!
[10:58] <FizDev> ?
[10:58] <Inf3ctedFX> cici,  http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/get.html
[10:58] <cici> oh
[10:58] <gnomefreak> cici: for ease of install use the Seveas skype package
[10:58] <Whatsisname> screw skype, use gnomemeeting :cool:
[10:58] <Seveas> !tell FizDev about automatix
[10:58] <Seveas> @help
[10:58] <Ubugtu> (help [<plugin>]  [<command>] ) -- This command gives a useful description of what <command> does. <plugin> is only necessary if the command is in more than one plugin.
[10:58] <frank__> oh they put a common gaming forum. ubuntu and kubuntu are together. very nice!
[10:58] <dav_the_man> but more people use skype
[10:58] <Inf3ctedFX> cici,  i'm just installing the easy ubuntu  and comes with skype
[10:58] <cici> thanks
[10:58] <fluxt> mtlhead: xmms has a configuration page, you can set the output plugin to alsa then restart xmms which may help
[10:58] <Whatsisname> using proprietary software with a free operating system is....
[10:59] <Whatsisname> sacreligious
[10:59] <Seveas> Whatsisname, exactly 
[10:59] <Whatsisname> in my opinion
[10:59] <mtlhead> ok, ill try that
[10:59] <Yokalosh> is there any reason why i do not have a 'removable drives and media' entry in my dapper?
[10:59] <Inf3ctedFX> dav_the_man,  or Seveas  what is the kernel framebuffer device interface?
[10:59] <morpheus2485> sfar-ubu, type exit
[10:59] <mtlhead> output is already at alsa, fluxt
[10:59] <splinterfl> so  dpkg -l | egrep '^ii'   gives a list of everything currently installed in this setup (which could be install on any *nix and be the same)
[10:59] <Seveas> Inf3ctedFX, /dev/fb0 usually
[10:59] <sfar-ubu> without closing the terminal i meant :)
[10:59] <fluxt> mtlhead: :/ what about the other program? what's that
[10:59] <Installer36> !tell Installer36 about automatix
[10:59] <mtlhead> gaim? its my instant messanger program
[11:00] <mtlhead> i dont have an option for alsa, i think
[11:00] <Inf3ctedFX> because Seveas  here on easy ubuntu is asking me if I want to use the Kernel framebuffer device interface.. and I dont know if I have to select it or not
[11:00] <fluxt> mtlhead: it probably uses it already.. how strange :/
[11:00] <cici> what is auto matix
[11:00] <Cooner750> Hello. I have another problem
[11:00] <dav_the_man> you probibly don't want to use it
[11:00] <mtlhead> i did aoss gaim
[11:00] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell cici about automatix
[11:00] <momojones> does anyone know why when i scroll up quickly in firefox, i go back a page
[11:00] <mtlhead> but that didnt do anything...i think
[11:00] <Inf3ctedFX> cici,  dont use that one
[11:00] <dav_the_man> if you have oldr hardware
[11:00] <momojones> it is a bug i think :|
[11:00] <Inf3ctedFX> I used to use it.. and gave me just problems
[11:00] <Inf3ctedFX> cici,  use easy ubuntu
[11:01] <cici> easy ubuntu?
[11:01] <dav_the_man> easy ubutu makes it so you can't update totem threw the software update
[11:01] <nalioth> Inf3ctedFX: have you visited wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  ?
[11:01] <cici> oh
[11:01] <gnomefreak> momojones: it happens to everyone
[11:01] <Seveas> Inf3ctedFX, you don't want to 
[11:01] <Inf3ctedFX> no nalioth  =(
[11:01] <dav_the_man> but easy ubutu still is cool so still use it
[11:01] <uzume> hi all
[11:01] <nalioth> Inf3ctedFX: try that  page
[11:01] <Inf3ctedFX> Seveas,  I would like to but I have not clue what it is..
[11:01] <Cooner750> I restarted once and now Ubuntu wont load past the status "Wating for network interface to come up..." and when I boot it in the 2nd mode (the one on the GRUB list under normal mode) it stops at the text "NET: Rgistered protocol family 17" and sits there with a flashing marker
[11:01] <Cooner750> any ideas?
[11:01] <Seveas> dav_the_man, easyubuntu is only slightly better that automatix...
[11:02] <dav_the_man> ic
[11:02] <nalioth> dav_the_man: i recommend you visit wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:02] <Inf3ctedFX> so should I use the kernel framebuffer device interface ? or not???
[11:02] <fluxt> mtlhead: without gaim running, does xmms work with other sound apps, such as movie players?
[11:02] <morpheus2485> does anyone know where i can download the dapper drake kernel source?
[11:02] <mtlhead> not sure, ill check
[11:02] <anto9us> Cooner750, try pressing ctrl+c and it may continue
[11:02] <morpheus2485> i've found the iso but all i need is the kernel
[11:02] <Seveas> morpheus2485, apt-get install linux-source-2.6.15
[11:02] <Cooner750> Ok. I'll try
[11:02] <morpheus2485> i tried that
[11:03] <morpheus2485> is it in some wierd repository?
[11:03] <sfar-ubu> morpheus2485: thanks
[11:03] <gnomefreak> Inf3ctedFX: read the discription of it i use no frame buffer if you read it it should give you a clue
[11:03] <morpheus2485> sfar-ubu, np
[11:03] <mtlhead> nope
[11:03] <Seveas> morpheus2485,  no
[11:03] <morpheus2485> Seveas, thanks...
[11:03] <fluxt> gah, thats not real good mtlhead
[11:03] <mtlhead> fluxt, nothing, it says i think i should use a sound serv3r
[11:03] <morpheus2485> might have been a typo or something...
[11:03] <mtlhead> server*
[11:04] <mtlhead> should i try getting alsa through synaptic?
[11:04] <fluxt> mtlhead: you do have alsa running right?

[11:04] <mtlhead> it says i do

[11:04] <Inf3ctedFX> gnomefreak,  this is my biggest problem.. I cannot really undestad english  is not my native languaje not because i'm lazzy  so if u guys give me a clue or idea it will be easy for me to decide..

[11:04] <anto9us> jprce, you sure can, what's your processor?
[11:04] <gnomefreak> Inf3ctedFX: for video card?
[11:04] <fluxt> mtlhead: did it stop working after doing something or has it never worked?
[11:05] <uzume> Line 1: Invalid configuration line 'ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant'
[11:05] <cici> and " You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

[11:05] <gnomefreak> Inf3ctedFX: now with easyubuntu i dont know never use the stuff ;)
[11:05] <mtlhead> lemme check

[11:06] <mtlhead> fluxt, doesnt say, id have to go back to OS X to find out
[11:06] <fiveiron> anyone play counterstrike in here?
[11:06] <fluxt> mtlhead: it's a apple?
[11:07] <iXce> another question ^^ what is the name of the logout tool please?
[11:07] <bliggy> Seveas, this external automounts when i plug it in... is there something else controlling it besides fstab?
[11:07] <mtlhead> yes, PowerPC G5
[11:07] <morpheus2485> Seveas, E: Couldn't find package linux-source-2.6.15
[11:07] <fluxt> mtlhead: lspci && echo will tell you
[11:07] <morpheus2485> Seveas, what do you think i could do?
[11:07] <jprce> an Intel Celeron 2.60 GHz
[11:07] <Seveas> morpheus2485, are you on dapper?
[11:07] <tomypreach> hey - simple problem, new to this.
[11:07] <gnomefreak> Inf3ctedFX: you might try #easyubuntu for that answer
[11:07] <morpheus2485> no
[11:07] <morpheus2485> well...
[11:07] <Seveas> morpheus2485, that explains 
[11:07] <morpheus2485> i'm not sure...
[11:08] <anto9us> jprce, choose the 686 kernel
[11:08] <Fujitsu> There is no 2.6.15 on Breezy.
[11:08] <Seveas> morpheus2485, cat /etc/issue
[11:08] <timon> trying to install xmms but i get this error scons: *** [src/plugins/modplug/libxmms_modplug.so]  Error 1
[11:08] <timon>

[11:08] <morpheus2485> i think i installed the released version
[11:08] <tomypreach> I can write on my fat32 drive ? what can i do ?
[11:08] <morpheus2485> 6ish months old
[11:08] <Seveas> timon, apt-get install xmms, don't compile manually
[11:08] <Seveas> morpheus2485, than you're not on dapper
[11:08] <Fujitsu> Breezy, morpheus2485. No 2.6.15.
[11:08] <jprce> 686? what's the dif?
[11:08] <timon> hmm, k
[11:08] <Inf3ctedFX> thx gnomefreak
[11:08] <mtlhead> fluxt, where do i find that at
[11:08] <nalioth> jprce: the 686 kernel addresses (and uses) more than 768mb ram
[11:08] <morpheus2485> Seveas, is there a way for me to get ahold of those sources then?
[11:08] <tomypreach> Im sure its basic ,
[11:09] <anto9us> jprce, it's optimised for that processor, takes advantage of architecture and extra instructions
[11:09] <gnomefreak> morpheus2485: did you run the command he gave you?
[11:09] <DeanStl> anyone get linux version of quake3 installed?
[11:09] <fluxt> mtlhead: you have to open a terminal/console
[11:09] <cici> i could not download skype from synapic package manager
[11:09] <Seveas> morpheus2485, manual downloading from packages.ubuntu.com - but that kerne most likely won't work on breezy
[11:09] <jprce> i only have 512
[11:09] <bliggy> Seveas, this external automounts when i plug it in... is there something else controlling it besides fstab?
[11:09] <morpheus2485> gnomefreak, one sec...
[11:09] <Cooner750> Ok. CTRL+C worked. Not sure why it froze at that step...
[11:10] <Fujitsu> Bye Seveas.
[11:10] <anto9us> jprce, type anto and press tab, 512 what?
[11:10] <morpheus2485> seveas. yeah... breezy badger...
[11:10] <jprce> anto9us, 512mb of ram
[11:10] <morpheus2485> gnomefreak, what command?
[11:10] <gnomefreak> morpheus2485: hes gone and no that kernel will more than likely not work in breezy
[11:10] <gnomefreak> nm you found out what the command would have told you
[11:11] <anto9us> jprce, ok, that's unrelated to this really
[11:11] <jprce> anto9us, nalioth said something about 768mb
[11:11] <jprce> anto9us, and btw, can i just update that in synaptic and retain everything i've done, or does it reset things?
[11:11] <anto9us> jprce, yes, it's a feature, not a requirement
[11:11] <morpheus2485> gnomefreak, that seems odd, but thanks for the info
[11:12] <WebLOCH> _jason,  thanks for the assistance, im off take care
[11:12] <morpheus2485> gnomefreak, so - should i download the latest flight.iso and update everything?
[11:12] <jprce> anto9us,  ok thanks, i'll update
[11:12] <anto9us> jprce, you add the kernel and the old one will still be retained  with a grub menu to choose to boot with if required
[11:12] <fluxt> mtlhead: i'm reading on the interweb that the ubuntu kernel may not be supporting the G5 sound correcty, I hear the latest kernel (not in breezy) has fixed the problem, you might have to wait for dapper
[11:12] <jprce> oh that's nice
[11:13] <mtlhead> ahh
[11:13] <mtlhead> ok
[11:13] <sfar-ubu> is it possible to "apt-get" the new deskbar 2.14?
[11:13] <rem_> evolution asks a password to import certificates. no idea what it can be  .. ?
[11:13] <rem_> Enter the password for 'NSS User Private Key and Certificate Services'
[11:13] <rem_> is there a default password or something .. ?
[11:13] <fluxt> mtlhead: installing the new kernel manually would probably break your system
[11:13] <mtlhead> lol
[11:13] <mtlhead> yea, lets avoid that
[11:13] <monzie> counterstrike?
[11:13] <fluxt> june 1st it gets released mtlhead
[11:13] <mtlhead> ok
[11:13] <rem_> can anyone help ?
[11:14] <dav_the_man> have you tied the keyring passwowrd and the root password
[11:14] <narg> How would you get cvs-over-ssh to use a nonstandard port?
[11:15] <anto9us> narg, use -L on ssh to map a port to host:port
[11:15] <eirejah> is it possible to use Opera web browser with ubuntu?
[11:15] <dav_the_man> yes
[11:15] <baquero22> somebody knows how to make the radar map work again???
[11:15] <ubuntu_kip> i need help
[11:16] <rem_> can anyone help import certificates in evolution .. ?
[11:16] <ubuntu_kip> to install ruby
[11:16] <eirejah> dav_the_man: it wont be in synaptic tho will it?
[11:16] <rem_> it asks for: Enter the password for 'NSS User Private Key and Certificate Services'
[11:16] <dav_the_man> i'm not sure
[11:16] <rem_> ??
[11:16] <ubuntu_kip> !ruby
[11:16] <ubotu> I heard ruby is an object oriented programming/scripting language born in Japan. You can download it at the command line by sudo apt-get install ruby1.6.
[11:16] <Akane`Mahoru> oyasumi nasai minna-san
[11:16] <baquero22> i would apreciate any help related with the radar map... lol
[11:16] <mtlhead> does anyone know where to find games for linux (like counterstrike or any other fps)
[11:16] <rem_> its not the certificate password, root or any other password i have .. :(
[11:16] <anto9us> baquero22, the one on the weather applet?
[11:17] <narg> anto9us: is that really what I want? I just want to make ssh to connect to port 100 instead of port 22. No simple way to do that?
[11:17] <baquero22> yes, the one on the weather applet
[11:17] <Fujitsu> narg, use the -p option.
[11:17] <nalioth> Akane`Mahoru: can you stop the away message please?
[11:17] <narg> Fujitsu: but putting the in the CVS_RSH gives a syntax error.
[11:17] <gnomefreak> anto9us: i think he means the gdesklet weather applet
[11:17] <fluxt> mtlhead: enemy territory is free quake engine based online fps game
[11:18] <Fujitsu> Ahh.
[11:18] <baquero22> no idea??????????
[11:18] <ubuntu_kip> can anyone help me
[11:18] <Fujitsu> I'm not sure about cvs-over-ssh...
[11:18] <anto9us> narg, sorry, yes, sshd has a port option -p
[11:18] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: sudo apt-get install ruby1.6
[11:18] <mtlhead> cool
[11:18] <mtlhead> ill look that up now
[11:18] <narg> anto9us: doesn't cvs use just the ssh client to connect, not sshd?
[11:18] <Huey> i'm having an interesting networking error; if i do 'nc -l 9000', and then 'netstat -nap | grep /nc', it seems to be listening on a random port (i.e. not port 9000)
[11:19] <baquero22> so noone have that radar map working????
[11:19] <baquero22> damn
[11:19] <Huey> i downloaded the official netcat package and ran into the same error
[11:19] <fluxt> mtlhead: also the quake/halflife/cs series run on linux
[11:19] <Huey> does this imply that my kernel has problems?
[11:19] <mtlhead> really? where can i find those??
[11:19] <mikebot> could someone help me with some php?
[11:19] <ubuntu_kip> arggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh
[11:19] <Huey> (everything else seems to be working, including apache)
[11:20] <dv_> how is the hal device manager called?
[11:20] <rem_> someone had same prob...but no solution .. http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2005-November/msg00503.html
[11:20] <mtlhead> or can i just intsall them from my bought cds for windows?
[11:20] <eirejah> hey could anyone tell me where i can get libqt3-mt and libqt3c102-mt
[11:20] <anto9us> narg, sorry, I misunderstood how it works, I don't use it, I use ssh to map clients to services, I think that's different though
[11:20] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: are you on breezy?
[11:20] <timon> Seveas, after i installed xmms and trys to play a song its stops rightaway
[11:20] <ubuntu_kip> yes
[11:20] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: and you want ruby what or just ruby?
[11:20] <nalioth> mikebot: have you been to #php or ##php ?
[11:20] <ubuntu_kip> i have dload ruby-1.
[11:20] <mikebot> nalioth, yeah, they aren't at all helpful
[11:20] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: is it a deb?
[11:20] <baquero22> ok
[11:20] <cratel2_> How can I get ubuntu to log in and start executing a script automatically on bootup and without gdm?
[11:20] <fluxt> mtlhead: i'm not sure i've never tried, i know they have binaries on http://www.ausgamers.com/
[11:21] <mtlhead> hmm
[11:21] <mtlhead> ok
[11:21] <ubuntu_kip> i have dload ruby-1.8.4.tar.gz
[11:21] <baquero22> xmms crashing after instalation of xmms_itouch
[11:21] <fluxt> mtlhead: google would probably know
[11:21] <mtlhead> ok
[11:21] <baquero22> someone know something about that??
[11:21] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: why would you put yoursekf through that for no reason :(
[11:21] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell ubuntu_kip about tar
[11:21] <ubuntu_kip> i need to install ruby
[11:21] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell ubuntu_kip about compile
[11:21] <Fujitsu> sudo apt-get install ruby1.8
[11:21] <ubuntu_kip> i did
[11:22] <trappist> anybody know how to get firefox to use a remote cups server for printing?
[11:22] <JonathanHarford> Is there someone here who can hold my hand and tell me what steps I should take after gparted has hosed my windows partition?
[11:22] <ubuntu_kip> but it says cant find package\
[11:22] <gnomefreak> Fujitsu: i dont think 1.8 is in breezy
[11:22] <Fujitsu> ruby1.6, then.
[11:22] <enyc> trappist: errrrr
[11:22] <narg> anto9us: cvs just uses ssh (client) to login on a remote machine, but it seems hardcoded to port 22.
[11:22] <enyc> trappist: just condfigure the remoute cups printer locally?
[11:22] <ubuntu_kip> even 1.6
[11:22] <morpheus2485> JonathanHarford, did you have files you need on win?
[11:22] <ubuntu_kip> i get errors
[11:22] <trappist> enyc: I'm trying to avoid using cups locally
[11:22] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: please paste your sources.list file to pastebin
[11:22] <Fujitsu> Yes.
[11:23] <enyc> trappist: its proabbyl not firefox that needs to be changed etc.. something else / library that talks to remote printers
[11:23] <enyc> trappist: well ... print via a command
[11:23] <fluxt> JonathanHarford: ouch
[11:23] <ubuntu_kip> gnome where is that
[11:23] <JonathanHarford> Morpheus, indeed I did
[11:23] <trappist> enyc: yeah I'm thinking some environment variable or maybe a config for lpr
[11:23] <enyc> trappist: something like rlpr or whatever to print to cupsys ipp?
[11:23] <ubuntu_kip> im a new in linux
[11:23] <mtlhead> will i be able to run an x86 program on my G5?
[11:23] <enyc> trappist: e.g. if you ahve a lp (not ipp/cupsys) printer...
[11:23] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, was it FAT32 or NTFS?
[11:23] <morpheus2485> JonathanHarford, did you try a live cd to see if you can still read the files?
[11:23] <enyc> you cna  use 'rlpr'
[11:23] <JonathanHarford> NTFS
[11:23] <morpheus2485> aaaaaaaaah
[11:23] <JonathanHarford> And I'm using a livecd right now
[11:23] <enyc> rlpr -h(host) -p(pritnername) (psfile)  sort of thing
[11:23] <fluxt> mtlhead: oh.. no.
[11:24] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: in terminal type sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and paste that to pastebin see ubotu output for pastebin address
[11:24] <trappist> enyc: I can print via lp - I'm hoping to get firefox to get the printer list from the cups server though
[11:24] <JonathanHarford> gparted says: "UNKNOWN"
[11:24] <gnomefreak> !pastebin
[11:24] <mtlhead> hrm
[11:24] <ubotu> I heard pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[11:24] <morpheus2485> i've heard that someone found a way around writing to ntfs.
[11:24] <morpheus2485> the project was called capture-ntfs
[11:24] <trappist> enyc: never heard of lrpr, installing it now...
[11:24] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, I have had luck with restoring NTFS partitions before...
[11:24] <morpheus2485> and the linux kernel can read ntfs files just fine
[11:24] <enyc> trappist: but that is remote lpr.. not remote ipp (cups etc.)
[11:24] <morpheus2485> so it would be pretty easy to boot the machine with knoppix and copy the files to an external hd] 
[11:24] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, do you have a space where you could create a full image of the partition?
[11:24] <TheMinion> after installing ubuntu on my computer, windows wont run anymore. when trying to launch windows i get the error that hal.dll is missing
[11:24] <fluxt> well mtlhead the game 'cube' might run on apple
[11:25] <JonathanHarford> The partition isn't recognized as NTFS anymore by linux is the first problem.
[11:25] <mtlhead> hmm, theres an osx version...i could just run it off of osx
[11:25] <anto9us> narg, still not sure what the scenario is, you can feasibly use ssh to map a port to host:port and then connect to it on localhost if that's helpful
[11:25] <trappist> enyc: I'm *sure* I did this before at a place I worked at once, with a remote cups server and no local cups, and I got the printer list dynamically from the cups server
[11:25] <enyc> trappist: that sounds sensible.. let me now how you do it ;-0
[11:25] <trappist> enyc: heh, ok
[11:25] <narg> anto9us: I'll see, for now I'll just use fish. The cvs box is going down soon anyway.
[11:25] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, there are tools that can restore NTFS partitions...
[11:26] <TheMinion> after installing ubuntu on my computer, windows wont run anymore. when trying to launch windows i get the error that hal.dll is missing
[11:26] <enyc> Fujitsu: what do you mean 'restore' ???? whats happened?
[11:26] <Fujitsu> Did you do anything to the partition in gparted?
[11:26] <Fujitsu> Or it just appeared as UNKNOWN?
[11:26] <fluxt> surely you mean battered breath JonathanHarford
[11:26] <veranda> gfyhj
[11:27] <veranda> hi
[11:27] <gnomefreak> TheMinion: it sounds like you need to reinstall windows :(
[11:27] <veranda> what ur name?
[11:27] <enyc> trappist: oooooooooooooh
[11:27] <TheMinion> there isn't a way to restore system files?
[11:27] <sfar-ubu> hal.dll error is common.. i dont think you need to reinstall..
[11:27] <enyc> trappist: gnome cups works using tcp/631 i think ??
[11:27] <morpheus2485> JonathanHarford, i've never done that
[11:27] <sfar-ubu> TheMinion: google the error msg
[11:27] <veranda> my name is veranda.
[11:27] <TheMinion> ok, thank you
[11:27] <morpheus2485> JonathanHarford, i've heard of it being done though
[11:28] <fluxt> my name is adolf veranda
[11:28] <enyc> trappist: aaaah...
[11:28] <sfar-ubu> and im sure youwill findthe sollution
[11:28] <dav_the_man> can't he just get an ntfs driver and copy files
[11:28] <TheMinion> thanks much
[11:28] <veranda> what ur name?
[11:28] <enyc> trappist: so... if cupsys is not runing locally (no listn/:631)
[11:28] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, did you do anything to the partition in gparted to make it appear UNKNOWN?
[11:28] <veranda> huh?
[11:28] <gnomefreak> veranda: this is a support chat please take the personal talk to #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:28] <JonathanHarford> I told gparted to resize it
[11:28] <enyc> trappist: you may be able to just  setup a listener on 127.0.0.1:631 that redirects tcp to (cupserver:631)
[11:28] <enyc> trappist: and it will likely work at least for selecting printers and printing
[11:28] <veranda> what?
[11:28] <Fujitsu> Aha.
[11:28] <JonathanHarford> That's when I got the error and the partition went UNKNOWN
[11:28] <dav_the_man> worst case that could have messed up the partition table
[11:29] <Fujitsu> Had you defragmented first, JonathanHarford?
[11:29] <trappist> enyc: seems like a hack, but I'll keep it in mind if I don't find a better solution
[11:29] <woofcat> is there any guide to installing ubuntu 5.10 to a usb drive?
[11:29] <enyc> well
[11:29] <enyc> trappist: /msg me ;-)
[11:29] <veranda> what u said
[11:29] <veranda> ?
[11:29] <enyc> (now)
[11:29] <JonathanHarford> Yes, I defragmented last night
[11:29] <Fujitsu> Hmm.
[11:29] <veranda> bye!
[11:29] <gnomefreak> veranda: what language do you speak?
[11:29] <veranda> idk
[11:29] <Fujitsu> I'm looking for what I used after such a failure (slow internet connection here)
[11:29] <gnomefreak> troll
[11:29] <woofcat> is there any guide to installing ubuntu 5.10 to a usb drive?
[11:29] <fluxt> lol
[11:29] <veranda> k bye!
[11:30] <JonathanHarford> I didn't back up, though. That's for wimps!
[11:30] <JonathanHarford> <-- (idiot)
[11:30] <timon> what can be wrong with my xmms, just installed it with apt-get xmms, works fine, but the song whont play
[11:30] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, have you got sufficient space on your Ubuntu partition for an image of the dead partition?\
[11:30] <anto9us> JonathanHarford, don't use gparted to do it but you need to delete and recreate the partition to the original size, hopefully all will still be there provided you don't format it
[11:31] <JonathanHarford> I don't have a Ubuntu partition, just this Live CD
[11:31] <Fujitsu> No!
[11:31] <Fujitsu> Don't!
[11:31] <Fujitsu> Ahh.
[11:31] <Fujitsu> OK.
[11:31] <Fujitsu> Hmm.
[11:31] <fluxt> thats a bad idea
[11:31] <gnomefreak> lol Fujitsu got a lil worried there?
[11:31] <Fujitsu> DO you have another machine you could move the hard disk to, JonathanHarford?
[11:31] <JonathanHarford> anto9us, that seems incredibly risky.
[11:31] <Fujitsu> anto9us, THAT IS A BAD IDEA!
[11:31] <cici> hi could you help me  I try to install skype.i type" sudo apt-get install getskype-linux-deb.deb"
[11:31] <enyc> trappist: maybe you shold talk to soem ltsp people?
[11:31] <ubuntu_kip> gnome http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10473
[11:31] <anto9us> JonathanHarford, no, use fdisk, make a note of the current settings before you do so
[11:31] <fluxt> JonathanHarford: it won't work don't do it
[11:32] <JonathanHarford> Fujitsu: no really
[11:32] <Fujitsu> Not until you have made an image, at least.
[11:32] <morpheus2485> JonathanHarford, there are forensic programs that can recover the files, but i've completely forgotten any of their names and can't find them on google
[11:32] <cici> but it wont work
[11:32] <veranda> hi
[11:32] <JonathanHarford> Fujitsu: I suppose I could use my machine at work, but I don't think my IT dept would like that.
[11:32] <Fujitsu> The problem is that we haven't really got anywhere to restore to...
[11:32] <Fujitsu> How big is the partition?
[11:32] <_jason> ubotu: tell cici about skype
[11:32] <JonathanHarford> I do have an external drive.
[11:32] <veranda> hi drake
[11:32] <trappist> enyc: I'm starting to think my answer lies in /etc/cups/client.conf - a cups *client*, not server... we'll see...
[11:32] <woofcat> is there any guide to installing ubuntu 5.10 to a usb drive?
[11:32] <gnomefreak> oh goodie ;)\
[11:32] <drake> hello
[11:32] <JonathanHarford> It's big, but only 100GB have files
[11:32] <veranda> ew
[11:33] <enyc> trappist: ooh
[11:33] <JonathanHarford> I think the full size is 225GB
[11:33] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: ok here what i need you to do do you still have the sources.list open?
[11:33] <fluxt> JonathanHarford: if you've accidently changed the partition TYPE then you can change it back, otherwise if you deleted it it gets tricky, if you created something over it trickier again
[11:33] <Fujitsu> Oh dear.
[11:33] <morpheus2485> JonathanHarford, there is a fork of knoppix std that has a bunch of forensics tools
[11:33] <Fujitsu> We really need space to put all the files, of course.
[11:33] <enyc> trappist: # ServerName: the hostname of your server.
[11:33] <Fujitsu> No other hard disks around, JonathanHarford
[11:33] <Fujitsu> *?
[11:34] <woofcat> is there any guide to installing ubuntu 5.10 to a usb drive?
[11:34] <anto9us> JonathanHarford, you've attempted a resize on the partition haven't you?
[11:34] <enyc> trappist: thats it ;-)
[11:34] <enyc> trappist: easy!
[11:34] <JonathanHarford> fluxt: I didn't change the partition type, I only resized it.
[11:34] <trappist> enyc: yeah... but by default it's supposed to respect the environment variable CUPS_SERVER, which I had already set.  I changed it in client.conf anyway...
[11:34] <enyc> trappist: jsut point it at the right place...
[11:34] <morpheus2485> fork of knoppix called knoppix std
[11:34] <morpheus2485> JonathanHarford, autopsy is a program to recover lost files
[11:34] <drake> does anyone know where to find libmp3lame.so in dapper
[11:34] <neckon> can someone tell me about using the teminal?
[11:34] <neckon> I am new to ubuntu
[11:34] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell neckon about cli
[11:34] <enyc> trappist: and whats happening etc. ?
[11:34] <_jason> !find libmp3lame.so dapper
[11:34] <_jason> I wonder if that works
[11:34] <JonathanHarford> Fujitsu: There is, but it probably only has 60GB of space if I had to guess.
[11:34] <fluxt> JonathanHarford: did you make a mistake or did the program just screw the partition?
[11:34] <Fujitsu> Yes, autopsy looks good.
[11:34] <crimsun> liblame0: /usr/lib/libmp3lame.so.0.0.0
[11:35] <Fujitsu> Hmm.
[11:35] <Fujitsu> I think partimage might be the way to go...

[11:36] <morpheus2485> JonathanHarford, sleuthkit is another
[11:36] <gnomefreak> ubuntu_kip: are you still here?
[11:36] <drake> i'll look once more. I've installed all of the add-on packages from the universe and multiverse but it still doesn't seem to be in /usr/lib
[11:36] <barktpolar> Hello
[11:36] <eirejah> hmm anyone here use Opera browser ?
[11:36] <gnomefreak> eirejah: used to
[11:36] <fluxt> i guess it would be impossible to re-create the partition information now the partition has been resized, those tools seem like a good idea
[11:37] <barktpolar> How much HDD Space does Ubuntu take up
[11:37] <Zarephath> Is there a gnome applet that will give me hard drive usage on a panel?
[11:37] <gnomefreak> barktpolar: as much as you give it?
[11:37] <anto9us> JonathanHarford, I've seen this problem before, the advice I gave you worked to resolve it
[11:37] <eirejah> know any reason why it would be particularly slow?
[11:37] <saik0> If i wanted to try and scan a windows filesystem from ubuntu which would be the most useful *nix virus scanner?
[11:37] <_jason> barktpolar: minimum for install is 1.8gb
[11:37] <sfar-ubu> how do i uninstall an application that i recently installed with "apt-get install" ?
[11:37] <eirejah> i have disabled java and all kinds of stuff
[11:37] <barktpolar> Dang
[11:37] <gnomefreak> Xang: df
[11:37] <gnomefreak> Zarephath: df
[11:37] <dv_> sfar-ubu, apt-get remove
[11:37] <_jason> barktpolar: reallistically you probably want more
[11:37] <barktpolar> That is big, NVM Then
[11:37] <trappist> enyc: worked :)
[11:37] <Fujitsu> anto9us, it was part-way through resizing!
[11:37] <Fujitsu> I think autopsy is the best bet.
[11:37] <_jason> barktpolar: well server install is like 300 mb iirc
[11:37] <Zarephath> gnomefreak: Really that sits on a panel in gnome? I thought that was command line?
[11:38] <gnomefreak> that big? you cant install any os for less :(
[11:38] <ubuntu_kip> gnomefreak: yes
[11:38] <JonathanHarford> Thank you anto9us, I'll keep that in mind as a last resort.
[11:38] <sfar-ubu> dv_: only apt-get remove, or apt-get remove <application> ?
[11:38] <gnomefreak> Zarephath: that sits in your terminal when you type it
[11:38] <morpheus2485> Fujitsu, partimage lists ntfs support as experimental :-(
[11:38] <barktpolar> Well I was just wondering was all
[11:38] <JonathanHarford> Fujitsu: Thank you. Do you have a link?
[11:38] <neckon> I am trying to install java and the installation instructions tell me to go to the terminal and type "su" and then it asks for a password. When I try to type in the password nothing comes up in the terminal window at the prompt
[11:38] <neckon> HELP
[11:38] <Zarephath> gnomefreak: And that wasn't my question...thanks anyway..I know how to do command line
[11:38] <barktpolar> I also need to find a CD Burning App for Linux
[11:38] <dav_the_man> nothing should come up int the terminal
[11:38] <dv_> sfar-ubu, the latter
[11:38] <dav_the_man> the password is hiden
[11:38] <Yann2> good evening everybody :)
[11:38] <_jason> neckon: what instructions are you following?  they sound wrong
[11:38] <Zarephath> barktpolar: K3b
[11:38] <dav_the_man> even the letters
[11:38] <Yann2> i'm sorry to have to ask this, but believe me, it's pretty important
[11:38] <dav_the_man> it's not even like *******
[11:39] <dav_the_man> it's just blank
[11:39] <barktpolar> K3b?
[11:39] <barktpolar> Where is that
[11:39] <Yann2> is dapper drake a dragon or a duck?
[11:39] <neckon> the inst's on the java.com site
[11:39] <sfar-ubu> dav_the_man: : it should be like that
[11:39] <sfar-ubu> enter the password and press enter
[11:39] <dav_the_man> ya
[11:39] <Yann2> has any decision been taken?
[11:39] <fluxt> barktpolar: apt-get install k3b
[11:39] <dav_the_man> thats what i was telling them
[11:39] <dj-fu> a dragon, yann
[11:39] <Fujitsu> Damn.
[11:39] <Fujitsu> We need a very compressed dd, then :(
[11:39] <cwiin> I'm trying to get ACPI suspend-to-ram/standby working on my laptop. It goes to sleep fine but when I try and wake it up, it's display stays off and it goes to 100% cpu (indicated by fan noise). It also appears not to be on the network, so I guess it's crashed. Any ideas?
[11:39] <saik0> barktpolar, burning app for KDE
[11:39] <cwiin> Dapper btw
[11:39] <Yann2> dj-fu > do you have an url to prove that?
[11:39] <dj-fu> dapper drake was a dragon, in megaman, iirc
[11:39] <sfar-ubu> dav_the_man: : hehe
[11:39] <neckon> I enter'd the pwd and it said auth failed
[11:39] <Zarephath> barktpolar: You have to install it..if you aren't using Kbuntu...which I presume you are not
[11:39] <dav_the_man> someone asked why it wasn't typing
[11:39] <Fujitsu> Ask away, Yann2
[11:39] <sfar-ubu> dav_the_man: i thought it was you who was asking :)
[11:39] <dav_the_man> su usualy has prboblems in ubuntu for some reason
[11:39] <sfar-ubu> sorry
[11:39] <_jason> ubotu: tell neckon about java
[11:40] <dav_the_man> try using sudo
[11:40] <barktpolar> I'm not, I have stuff on Windows taht will be hard to configure on Linuyx
[11:40] <mtlhead> fluxt, how do i install cube after i get it
[11:40] <dav_the_man> one quick question
[11:40] <saik0> barktpolar, You can burn CDs and CD images from nautilus and Audio with serpentine. If you need more there always gnomebaker
[11:40] <mtlhead> i extracted it
[11:40] <dav_the_man> how do you all hightlight text
[11:40] <dav_the_man> like to the other peson in irc
[11:40] <dav_the_man> cuz when i talk it's really confisuing
[11:40] <Fujitsu> OK.
[11:40] <_jason> dav_the_man: put their name in the front
[11:40] <dav_the_man> unliss i private message
[11:40] <Fujitsu> Good.
[11:40] <dav_the_man> _jason like this
[11:40] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, install package autopsy.
[11:40] <pinkisntwell> how can I play midi files on ubuntu?
[11:40] <_jason> dav_the_man: exactly
[11:40] <pinkisntwell> playmidi doesn't work
[11:40] <dav_the_man> sweet
[11:41] <drake> i found LAME this time
[11:41] <JonathanHarford> Ha! Of course it would be that simple.
[11:41] <dav_the_man> thanks
[11:41] <drake> thanks for the help
[11:41] <fluxt> mtlhead: it should come with docs to compile... but.. you'll need the build tools
[11:41] <NewUBUNTU> hu
[11:41] <NewUBUNTU> hi
[11:41] <fluxt> ubotu: tell mtlhead about build-essential
[11:41] <Yann2> Fujitsu > it's quite important, don't want to print 300 tee shirts with a dragon on it if dapper drake is a duck :p
[11:41] <Fujitsu> And await further instructions (ie. I'm downloading it :))
[11:41] <JonathanHarford> Thanks, Fujitsu. And Morpheus2485.
[11:41] <NewUBUNTU> can anyone help me connect my ubuntu machine to the internet
[11:41] <dav_the_man> newubuntu sure
[11:41] <Fujitsu> Aah.
[11:41] <dav_the_man> by eathernet?
[11:41] <dj-fu> I doubt it'd be a duck, ducks just aren't cool.
[11:41] <sfar-ubu> dav_the_man: i think the root password is disabled in ubuntu by default
[11:41] <dav_the_man> ppo?
[11:41] <FizDev> newubuntu: or wireless?
[11:41] <mtlhead> that didnt tell me much
[11:42] <mtlhead> just said to use !gcc
[11:42] <sfar-ubu> you need to "sudo passwd root" before you can use "su" :)
[11:42] <_jason> I think it's a duck
[11:42] <NewUBUNTU> im using a 56k modem
[11:42] <dav_the_man> sfar-ubu the root password is just the passowrd for the first user created
[11:42] <ba> mtlhead, ? montreal?
[11:42] <gnomefreak> dapper = duck
[11:42] <NewUBUNTU> winmodem to be exact
[11:42] <mtlhead> ba, no sir, metalhead
[11:42] <fortunato> can someone help me
[11:42] <gnomefreak> !helpme
[11:42] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[11:42] <sfar-ubu> dav_the_man: not exactly..
[11:42] <Zarephath> NewUBUNTU: Do you know if your network card is configured? Or are you trying to dialup  on modem?
[11:42] <ba> ah... metal... my specialty
[11:42] <fortunato> how do i update firefox
[11:42] <Fujitsu> I think it is a duck, however nobody but sabdfl is sure, AFAIK.
[11:42] <ba> well metalcore but same thing
[11:42] <Fujitsu> !question
[11:42] <ubotu> Fujitsu: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:42] <Fujitsu> Meh.
[11:42] <gnomefreak> fortunato: from 1.0.7 to 1.5
[11:42] <SynapseRecall> !answer
[11:42] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, SynapseRecall
[11:42] <fluxt> ubotu: tell mtlhead about gcc
[11:42] <Fujitsu> Wrong factoid.
[11:42] <sfar-ubu> the sudo-password is the same pass as for the first created user
[11:42] <fortunato> yes gnomefreak
[11:43] <sfar-ubu> but the su-password needs to be set
[11:43] <fortunato> ?
[11:43] <JonathanHarford> Fujitsu: I just tried sudo install autopsy, and got install: missing destination file operand after `autopsy'
[11:43] <dj-fu> then you can `sudo passwd`, type in your user password, then the new root passwd (x2)
[11:43] <sfar-ubu> dj-fu: exactly :)
[11:43] <dj-fu> JonathanHarford, `sudo apt-get install autopsy`
[11:43] <mtlhead> ok build essential is installed
[11:43] <Fujitsu> sudo apt-get install autopsy
[11:44] <eirejah> so i want to play a dvd, i have all of the restricted formats downloaded and everything ready to go.. i have put the dvd in and fired up xine .. whats next
[11:44] <barktpolar> Anyone know how to switch CD Drives for booting?
[11:44] <_jason> I haven't been following why su is being advised but it is usually completely unneccessary and a bad idea to enable root in ubuntu
[11:44] <JonathanHarford> Couldn't find package autopsy
[11:44] <dj-fu> barktpolar, it's done in BIOS
[11:44] <fluxt> eirejah: click DVD
[11:44] <Fujitsu> Either that in a terminal, or System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager.
[11:44] <morphius> I need to mount my initrd file. It is appearently a Gziped file that I am supposed to be able to loop mount. When I try to loop mount it I get ioctl: LOOP_CLR_FD: device or resource busy Mount: you must specify the filesystem type. How can I successfully extract/mount this file for changes.
[11:44] <Fujitsu> barktpolar, depends on the BIOS.
[11:44] <dav_the_man> us is advertized to make sure the packages install with out write errors
[11:44] <dj-fu> JonathanHarford, enable multi/universe
[11:44] <FizDev> barktpolar: in the BIOS, press "Del" or "F1" to "F12" at startup
[11:44] <bliggy> if i could get soem help... I've properly edited my /etc/fstab file to mount my External Fat32 drive wiith write permission... when I "sudo mount -a" i get "mount: /dev/sda1: can't read superblock"... can someone help?
[11:44] <Fujitsu> Mmm.
[11:44] <dj-fu> synaptic >repos > add > tick multi/uni
[11:45] <barktpolar> It's F10 for me
[11:45] <Fujitsu> True.
[11:45] <JDahl> I bolloxed up my network connection after a dist-upgrade to jabber(I dont have eth0 anymore)... by googling I found something on a udev bug that seems to be related, and the cure seems to be downgrade udev - is there a way to fix it without downgrading udev? (I could download files to laptop, copy them to usbstick and then downgrade on my desktop, but that seems complicated)
[11:45] <FizDev> barktpolar: *to enter the bios
[11:45] <JonathanHarford> dj-fu: What an intriguing suggestion. I have no idea what it means.
[11:45] <chimuzua> Hy. Newbie here. managed to have modem HCF to work but it says it needs licence for  full speed. anyone knows if theres' another way?
[11:45] <eirejah> fluxt: thank you :)
[11:45] <fluxt> morphius:  gunzip -c /boot/initrd.img > test.img
[11:45] <Fujitsu> Are we using the Breezy LiveCD, or Dapper, JonathanHarford?
[11:45] <Fujitsu> OK.
[11:45] <JonathanHarford> Dapper
[11:45] <FizDev> barktpolar: then there should be an option where you can change the boot oder
[11:45] <morphius> bliggy: can you mount normally? (mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1)
[11:45] <dj-fu> lol, leet dapper.
[11:45] <FizDev> barktpolar: *order
[11:45] <anto9us> JDahl, did the dist-upgrade complete properly?
[11:45] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, you want to open System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager.
[11:46] <dj-fu> using dapper and not knowing how to use apt-get for-the-lose.
[11:46] <bliggy> morphius, I'll try
[11:46] <fluxt> bliggy: have you specified the type as vfat ?
[11:46] <JonathanHarford> It's not listed.
[11:46] <Fujitsu> Aha.
[11:46] <Fujitsu> GOod.
[11:46] <sword-> any of you use gimp in ubuntu?
[11:46] <coolpup> Yup
[11:46] <dav_the_man> not for real work
[11:46] <mtlhead> fluxt, now that i have build essential what do i do
[11:46] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, in Synaptic, there should be an options thing somewhere.
[11:46] <JDahl> anto9us: yes, everything went smoothly - many people seem to be posting about a related bug where their network stop working due to oddly named network connections
[11:47] <sword-> coolpup, im having trouble opening .psd files
[11:47] <Fujitsu> I can't exactly remember, and I'm not in a position to check at the moment, JonathanHarford.
[11:47] <Fujitsu> Can somebody else instruct JonathanHarford on how to enable Universe in Synaptic on Dapper?
[11:47] <sword-> i think something is wrong w/ the plugin
[11:47] <coolpup> Not sure what they are :)
[11:47] <sword-> well let me try this one actually
[11:47] <bliggy> morphius, mount: /dev/sda1: can't read superblock
[11:47] <frank__> !tell JonathanHarford about sources
[11:47] <fluxt> mtlhead: follow the docs included in the cube game source release
[11:47] <morphius> Well, the first question is: are you sure your HDD is on /dev/sda1?
[11:47] <fluxt> mtlhead: (i don't recall)
[11:48] <anto9us> JDahl, of course you meant dapper when you said jabber, yes? #ubuntu+1 may be helpful
[11:48] <djk_> the livecd includes everything to install grub, right?
[11:48] <JDahl> anto9us: for example, I now have eth1 instead of eth0, but /etc/init.d/networking restart complains about eth0
[11:48] <mtlhead> k
[11:48] <ompaul> JonathanHarford, please to the to channel #ubuntu+1 it is there just for talking about dapper
[11:48] <bliggy> morphius, i thought I was sure
[11:48] <morphius> bliggy: the other option is that your fs may be corrupt. But likely it is having trouble finding the device.
[11:48] <dav_the_man> but jonathanhartford doesn't have a dapper related problem
[11:48] <JDahl> anto9us: yes, Dapper ;)  thanks
[11:48] <narg> JonathanHarford: open a terminal, do 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list', and then use the arrow keys to go down until you find one that says deb blah blah universe, and remove the #.
[11:48] <NewUBUNTU> wots the command again to mount and access windows partitions
[11:48] <dav_the_man> he is just happening to use dapper and having an ubuntu problem
[11:49] <JonathanHarford> Awesome, narg.
[11:49] <fluxt> bliggy: try first: mount -t vfat
[11:49] <morphius> If you are in ubuntu and you unplug and then plug in the drive, it should automount on your gnome desktop. Does it do that for you?
[11:49] <ompaul> dav_the_man, the thing is that all dapper is in #ubuntu+1
[11:49] <Cooner750> Hello. How do I install Java
[11:49] <Zarephath> NewUBUNTU: mount -t <filesystem> /dev/<device> /<mount point>
[11:49] <_jason> ubotu: tell Cooner750 about java
[11:49] <dav_the_man> ompaul oh
[11:49] <ompaul> dav_the_man, it is the developement help channel as such here we deal with release
[11:49] <Zarephath> ubotu: tell NewUBUNTU about mount
[11:50] <bliggy> morphius, yes it does that... wokrs great.. just no write permission... adn fstab doesn tseem to effect anythign that is automounted
[11:50] <JonathanHarford> I'll do that, ompaul.
[11:51] <fluxt> why has this channel installed it's users in burst mode?
[11:51] <mtlhead> fluxt, apparently it wont work on a ppc
[11:51] <Fujitsu> ?
[11:51] <fluxt> aww. ppc sucks :p
[11:51] <mtlhead> lol
[11:51] <mtlhead> u think the binaries for hl and cs would work?
[11:51] <dav_the_man> no
[11:52] <fluxt> mtlhead: it said it has mac support :/
[11:52] <morphius> fluxt: that yields:  unknown suffix -- ignored
[11:52] <morphius> . I already gunzipped the file though and cant mount it
[11:52] <dav_the_man> steam woulding install
[11:52] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, have you enabled Universe?
[11:52] <mtlhead> well there is a mac version
[11:52] <mtlhead> i can do that
[11:52] <mtlhead> but steam wont work on linux?
[11:52] <morphius> bliggy: can you post you /etc/mtab file?
[11:52] <FizDev> mtlhead: it would probably work with Cedega
[11:52] <JonathanHarford> I followed narg's advice
[11:52] <Fujitsu> I don't think steam really works on Linux.
[11:52] <fluxt> morphius: worked for me
[11:52] <bliggy> sure one sec
[11:52] <narg> JonathanHarford: also, you will need to do an apt-get update
[11:52] <neckon> someone tell me how to install java on ubuntu
[11:52] <JonathanHarford> Thank you, narg
[11:52] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, Ctrl-X then y to save.
[11:52] <neckon> I can't figure it out
[11:52] <mtlhead> dav_the_man, steam wont work on a ppc?
[11:52] <JonathanHarford> Oh, I was able to save successfully.
[11:53] <Fujitsu> Yes, apt-get update.
[11:53] <Fujitsu> Good.
[11:53] <_jason> neckon: did you read the bot's message?
[11:53] <FizDev> Fujitsu: Steam works under Linux.
[11:53] <ompaul> Fujitsu, pelase remember sudo :-)
[11:53] <mtlhead> for a ppc though?
[11:53] <neckon> didn't see it
[11:53] <dav_the_man> mtlhead it's not the prossesor, it's that steam is locked
[11:53] <mtlhead> oh
[11:53] <ftwig> hi, trying to get rsync working.  I set up /etc/rsync.conf and created a section for my home directory, the command I used was 'rsync -avx 192.168.1.90::ben'.  All it did was list the files, it did not actualy create any.

[11:53] <bliggy> sorry
[11:54] <Eleaf> I can't believe this, I always can never remember how to change permissions on a directory
[11:54] <Eleaf> How do I do this to allow all access to a folder ?
[11:54] <Fujitsu> JonathanHarford, it's downloading lists of packages... It will be a bit slower than normal, but shouldn't be too bad.
[11:54] <mtlhead> i havent been able to find the binaries on that site either
[11:54] <_jason> Eleaf: chmod
[11:54] <Eleaf> _jason,  yes I know
[11:54] <Zarephath> When I chmod a directory how do I tell it to chmod all the files and directories underneath the main directory on the tree?
[11:54] <Eleaf> _jason, what command?
[11:54] <_jason> Eleaf: 777
[11:54] <JonathanHarford> Fujitsu: autopsy is installing!
[11:54] <Fujitsu> You need execute permissions to enter a directory, Eleaf.
[11:54] <Fujitsu> -R, Zarephath
[11:54] <JonathanHarford> (baby steps)
[11:54] <Eleaf> _jason, 777?  I thought that was root though
[11:54] <SynapseRecall> whats the command line to copy a directory /
[11:54] <SynapseRecall> ?
[11:54] <Quest-Master> cp
[11:54] <frank__> mtlhead: as far as I know there is no way to run hl under linux in ppc
[11:54] <Zarephath> Fujitsu: Thanks...
[11:55] <FizDev> cp -R
[11:55] <_clem> cp -R
[11:55] <Eleaf> _jason, I can just never remember the numbers
[11:55] <mtlhead> hmmm
[11:55] <morphius> bliggy, lets join #flood
[11:55] <mtlhead> what about quake?
[11:55] <frank__> mtlhead: cedega is only for PC and there is no ppc equivalent
[11:55] <bliggy> ok
[11:55] <NewUBUNTU> id like tho thank all u ppl
[11:55] <anto9us> Eleaf, each 7 represents full access for owner, group, everyone respectively
[11:55] <Fujitsu> Good, JonathanHarford.
[11:55] <NewUBUNTU> who helped me tonight
[11:55] <NewUBUNTU> i really appreciat it
[11:55] <NewUBUNTU> :) thank u
[11:55] <Eleaf> anto9us, ah right.  Is there a list of what these letters are?  the higher the more access?
[11:55] <fluxt> mtlhead: i forgot you used ppc when i mentioned all those games :/
[11:55] <mtlhead> lol
[11:56] <fluxt> cept cube
[11:56] <Fujitsu> Eleaf, r is read, w is write, x is execute.
[11:56] <mtlhead> ok, well are there any good games i can run
[11:56] <frank__> mtlhead: I think the options are pretty limited. I don't know of anygame which has a ppc linux port
[11:56] <mtlhead> fps prefferably
[11:56] <clem_yeats> Eleaf : 1 for x, 2 for w and 4 for r... and they add up for u, g and o respectively.
[11:56] <Eleaf> Fujitsu, I know that, I just need to know the numbers
[11:56] <Fujitsu> The first set is for owner, second for group, and last for everyone else.
[11:56] <Fujitsu> OK.
[11:56] <fluxt> mtlhead: bzflag !
[11:56] <Fujitsu> It is binary adding.
[11:56] <dj-fu> the 'easy' chmod style is like chmod u+rw,a-rwx file, etc
[11:56] <mtlhead> where ccan i find that?
[11:56] <fluxt> google
[11:56] <Eleaf> clem_yeats, alright Fujitsu thanks.
[11:56] <frank__> mtlhead: well open source games will run of course
[11:56] <senzacionale> hello
[11:56] <Madpilot> Eleaf, man chmod should explain the numbers
[11:56] <Fujitsu> r is 4, w is 2, x is 1.
[11:56] <jef_> hi
[11:56] <mtlhead> yea
[11:56] <_jason> Fujitsu: octal no?
[11:56] <anto9us> Eleaf, info chmod :)
[11:56] <FunnyLookinHat> 421421421
[11:56] <Eleaf> Madpilot, it doesn't
[11:56] <senzacionale> can someone tell me how i can remove program from cvscedega
[11:56] <fluxt> mtlhead: wait.. probably sudo apt-get install bzflag
[11:56] <Eleaf> anto9us, it doesn't show
[11:57] <Madpilot> Eleaf, ah
[11:57] <mtlhead> so halflife, counterstrike,  quake are all out?
[11:57] <jef_> ubuntu-de
[11:57] <jef_> ups :>
[11:57] <dav_the_man> mtlhead if you want to run them at decent speads probibly
[11:57] <mtlhead> that worked fulxt
[11:57] <eirejah> well shit
[11:57] <mtlhead> hmm
[11:57] <eirejah> i think i may be screwing my dvd playback up
[11:57] <Eleaf> Madpilot, it's weird documentation..  it just talks about random stuff like "rwxSuGAAH" and nothing really having much to do with it.
[11:57] <fluxt> it's not quake by far
[11:57] <eirejah> :/
[11:57] <senzacionale> or is better to ask this in form?
[11:57] <frank__> mtlhead: ummm  quake 1/2/3 all have their source released I think ... maybe there are possibilities there...
[11:57] <haggis> how do i install mp3 codecs
[11:57] <mtlhead> ok
[11:57] <Cooner750> Does anyone here have a copy of the original sources.list that came with Breezy (5.10)? I've messed mine up
[11:57] <_jason> !mp3
[11:57] <ubotu> well, mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:58] <Madpilot> !tell Cooner750 about repos
[11:58] <_jason> ubotu: tell Cooner750 about sources
[11:58] <eirejah> if i live in ireland my dvd region is 2 right ??
[11:58] <fluxt> frank__: yeah, someone probably compiled a ppc binary for quake somewhere, perhaps even enemy-territory
[11:58] <clem_yeats> yep
[11:58] <eirejah> anyone know
[11:58] <frank__> mtlhead: the problem is intel linux is a pretty small market.  ppc linux is even worse
[11:58] <Fujitsu> Oh dear.
[11:58] <morphius> fluxt: got gunzip to work but mount initrd.img /initrd
[11:58] <morphius> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[11:58] <morphius>  and mount -t cramfs -o loop initrd.img /initrd
[11:58] <morphius> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop2,
[11:58] <morphius>        missing codepage or other error
[11:58] <morphius>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[11:58] <morphius>        dmesg | tail  or so
[11:58] <mtlhead> ll
[11:58] <morphius> . Simelar error when using ext2
[11:58] <ompaul> morphius, STOP

[11:59] <senzacionale> ok i will ask in forum:D
[11:59] <clem_yeats> eirejah : in Ireland : zone 2.
[11:59] <yamathan> How can I mount a PCIe all-in-wonder card?
[11:59] <yamathan> *All-In-Wonder, I mean.
[11:59] <fluxt> i suppose because perhaps os/x > linux
[11:59] <clem_yeats> yamathan... hmm.. I wonder... lol
[11:59] <narg> yamathan: you don't mount graphics cards...
[11:59] <eirejah> clem_yeats: my playback started messing up on my as soon as i set region to 2
[11:59] <yamathan> Odd.
[11:59] <mtlhead> hmm, well i can atleast run cube on os x
[11:59] <yamathan> If I don't mount it, then why isn't it being detected?
[11:59] <mtlhead> so thats one good game
[12:00] <anto9us> Eleaf, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHMOD
[12:00] <clem_yeats> eirejah : where did you buy it ?
