[12:00] <jariep1_> dj-fu, how do I specify the filesystem type?

[12:01] <saif> hello,i got a broken package in my repositories, when i try to remove it i get this error:dpkg-divert: mismatch on divert-to
[12:01] <saif>   when removing `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/share/fglrx/diversions/libGL.so.1.2 by xorg-driver-fglrx'
[12:01] <saif>   found `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/lib/fglrx/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa by xorg-driver-fglrx'
[12:01] <jariep1_> dj-fu, what do i type for dos type filesystem??
[12:01] <saif> any ideas how i can fix this?
[12:01] <dj-fu> jareth_, vfat (fat16, fat32)
[12:01] <dj-fu> 'vfat'/
[12:01] <jariep1_> ok thanks
[12:01] <Aaron_Mason> ok, next question, can it even be done?
[12:01] <Drac[Server] > Poomartialarts, ah. You're missing out on a buttload of packages. Here's what you do. First of all, edit /etc/apt/sources.list through sudo. Uncomment (take away the #) from every "deb" line except for the CDs. Those should have #'s. Then add the word "multiverse" after anything that ends with "universe" in that file.
[12:02] <dj-fu> The easiest way to do it is with synatpic, settings >repositories > add > check multiverse and universe
[12:02] <dj-fu> asymmetry, apt-get auto-clean ? :D
[12:02] <asymmetry> It's not OS stuff.
[12:02] <asymmetry> It's just documents.
[12:02] <asymmetry> Music, movies, games, software, etc.
[12:02] <dj-fu> nasty
[12:02] <asymmetry> It's my storage drive.
[12:03] <keithhhhhhhhh> does anyone have a recommendation for a good ftp client?
[12:03] <dj-fu> keithhhhhhhhh, gFTP?
[12:03] <sfar-ubu> delete some movies then :)
[12:03] <Puffball> does anybody know how to switch kernels?
[12:03] <keithhhhhhhhh> cool Ill look into it  ;) thanks
[12:03] <asymmetry> Puffball: Hit ESC at boot, select kerne;.
[12:03] <asymmetry> Kernel.
[12:03] <Puffball> oh thanks :P
[12:03] <julle> is it "apt-get dist upgrade" ?
[12:04] <asymmetry> Puffball: If you don't HAVE the kernel you're looking for, use Synaptic.
[12:04] <dj-fu> Aaron_Mason, `man mkfs`
[12:04] <Puffball> ok
[12:04] <asymmetry> Puffball: It has a selection of generic kernel builds. Or, you can compile your own.
[12:04] <Puffball> how do you configure grub to boot a certain kernel?
[12:04] <asymmetry> Puffball: By the way, if you compile your own, don't do what I (idiot) did the first time, and compile support for your boot filesystem as a module. Doesn't work too well.
[12:04] <asymmetry> Puffball: Check out /boot/grub/menu.lst for examples.
[12:04] <Puffball> ah, okay
[12:04] <Puffball> thanks
[12:06] <Aaron_Mason> dj-fu: cheers

[12:08] <stpere> I'm having trouble with the groupwise plugin in evolution
[12:09] <stpere> someone has experience with it?
[12:09] <karim> dj-fu: same error with -f option
[12:09] <dj-fu> karim, did you do an upgrade or dist-upgrade
[12:09] <karim> could it be that i'm running an unstable version?
[12:09] <dj-fu> are you trying to mix'n'match stable with unstable?
[12:09] <karim> dj-fu: an upgrade
[12:09] <dj-fu> run apt-get dist-upgrade, see if that works
[12:10] <karim> dj-fu: ok let me try that
[12:11] <jfb> Hi all. I'm having trouble getting WPA to work. I have an Atmel WNIC, and have installed and configured WPA_supplicant. When I try to start up wpa_supplicant, I get:
[12:11] <sfar-ubu> Hm.. with the deskbar applet (0.8.5) you can select "Search Engines" in preferences.. but how do i edit the search enginges that is shown.. i want to remove some of them

[12:12] <jfb> In addition to many other messages...  It continually scans for the (non broadcast SSID AP), but never establishes connectivity.
[12:12] <BlueOrange> HI folks. I am trying to install Skype. I downloaded the skype.deb I cd to dir & tried "sudo apt-get install skype_1.2.0.18-2_i386.deb" which resulted in: "E: Couldn't find package skype_1.2.0.18-2_i386.deb
[12:12] <BlueOrange> " any suggestions ?
[12:12] <juztin> how do i update my video drivers?
[12:12] <jfb> Any suggestions are appreciated. The Atmel NIC works fine for non-WPA activity, and it seems others have made it work with WPA...
[12:12] <karim> dj-fu: no luck. "not installable".... E:broken package ....
[12:12] <jind> IdleOne: I appreciate the feedback, but all that page say is about general instructions and links to jigdo and iso (and torrent). Isn't is possible to just change the sources.list and apt-get distupgrade to it?
[12:13] <angryfix> if I accidentally deleted a folder using "rm -rf foo" is there anyway to get it back? I stupidly deleted the wrong folder. Is it gone for good?
[12:13] <NeverDream> how long do you think it'll take for an Ubuntu/mactel version?
[12:13] <IdleOne> jind, I guess you could . try asking in #ubuntu+1 for help with dapper

[12:13] <jind> IdleOne: thanks!
[12:13] <IdleOne> BlueOrange, have you enabled universe/multiverse?
[12:14] <dj-fu> karim, try removing the package it's complaining about
[12:14] <NeverDream> probably not with dapper, right? but maybe 6.11?
[12:14] <dj-fu> jind, yes, you can edit the sources.list and then dist-upgrade.

[12:14] <jind> dj-fu: Good. Do you know where I can find a working sources.list?
[12:14] <BlueOrange> IdleOne: yes, i have enabled universe/multiverse but i still didnt see skype there so i downloaded the .deb file directly from the skype web site.

[12:17] <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.

[12:31] <Mischevious> _Toba, /on one partition of about 3 gigs a /usr partition .. quite large
[12:31] <_Toba> should I just do 1, or do I need a swap?
[12:31] <Mischevious> how much ram on that machine ?
[12:31] <useruser> is there a little emacs-like editor on the live cd?
[12:31] <Mischevious> useruser, nano?
[12:31] <Toba> don't say emacs
[12:31] <ompaul> _Toba, you need swap, as to wheather you want more divisions
[12:31] <_Toba> I'm not sure, 64/128 I'm guessing
[12:31] <Simulacra> useruser: I suggest using VI
[12:32] <cerebrix> heya anyone know what to plug into streamtuner to make it send streams to amarok?
[12:32] <useruser> Mischevious: nano's not very emacs like :) i want my keybindings back
[12:32] <Mischevious> Toba, oh.. then yes you need a swap.. of like 768MB
[12:32] <useruser> Simulacra: yeah i know. it's very slow for me to use though
[12:32] <ompaul> _Toba, 2.5 times your ram is the suggested swap up to about 1 gig after that if your running swap you have some serious problems
[12:32] <Mischevious> useruser, sorry.. i always use graphic editor
[12:32] <useruser> Simulacra: even gedit's better than vi for me
[12:32] <Simulacra> lol
[12:32] <Toba> then use pico or nano
[12:32] <Mischevious> ompaul, yea more then 1gig of swap is a rip off, this machine has 1gig ram and i use no swap and i never have problems
[12:33] <useruser> Toba: but... they're crap
[12:33] <Toba> yes, yes they are
[12:33] <Simulacra> everyone has their preference. Me I could not live wo vim
[12:33] <Toba> vim > emacs

[12:35] <dj-fu> pvd2006, that's normal :)
[12:35] <pvd2006> That isnt how much is actually being used right now though right
[12:35] <ompaul> karim what do you need to know
[12:35] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, here's something interesting printed from adduser: "for compatibility with Samba accounts $ is also supported at the end of the filename." Think it's at all helpful?
[12:35] <dj-fu> pvd2006, no, it's cached
[12:36] <pvd2006> is there a command to find out how much memory your using currently?
[12:36] <Misnix> frrr
[12:36] <Misnix> free
[12:36] <ompaul> karim the process around it is very well documented in the couple of FAQs out there
[12:36] <dj-fu> Drac[Server] , I've got no idea, whatsoever. Never tried to do what you are doing, I doubt it's very complex, though
[12:36] <dj-fu> pvd2006, free will report how much you are using, how much is cache etc
[12:36] <bimberi> pvd2006: 'free -m'.  Look at the figure next to '+/- buffers/cache:'  that is what is really being used.  The rest is file cache
[12:36] <pvd2006> oh ok, so the cached amount is how much I am using right now im gessuing.
[12:37] <karim> ompaul: hum have an issue buiding the ca cert with ./build-ca.
[12:37] <bimberi> (and buffers) :P
[12:37] <pvd2006> ohhh
[12:37] <pvd2006> I see it now
[12:37] <pvd2006> alright
[12:37] <dj-fu> the one underneath used is 'actual' usage
[12:37] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, adduser does complain that the existing directory it tries to use for its home directory doesn't belong to the user being created. Could this be the cause, and if so, how do I fix it? I've tried changing the ownership of the directory, to no avail.
[12:37] <karim> ompaul: I was looking at the faq here http://openvpn.net/howto.html
[12:37] <pvd2006> so im using 283megs of memory
[12:37] <dj-fu> the system monitor applet for Gnome is nice, gives you a graphical look at your RAM usage
[12:38] <dj-fu> (dark green = user, light green = buffer, really light green = cache) iirc
[12:38] <ompaul> karim, let me find the ones I used
[12:38] <dj-fu> Drac[Server] , remove the folder, start again from scratch
[12:38] <karim> ompaul: cool
[12:38] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, the remotely located folder? Fine. I'll try that.
[12:39] <Solilo> Is there a way to set the default switches for an application when it doesn't use a configuration file in either ~ or /etc? (xterm, for example)
[12:39] <dj-fu> Drac[Server] , I believe you can have X login to X on a remote server, instead of using samba to do it
[12:39] <ompaul> karim, wow the docs on that site have gone through the roof since I last looked
[12:39] <VR_> how do i get the status-bar menu in nautilus, like right here? >>> http://web.tampabay.rr.com/vr/statusbar.jpg
[12:39] <pvd2006> oh, btw when you install wine on Ubuntu where is the wine.conf file located. I need to change the path from C: to /media/hdc1
[12:39] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, that would be murder on this ancient hardware. :\
[12:39] <rodrickbrown> i just did a fresh install of breezy and my system has no /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
[12:39] <Simulacra> Solilo: you can just add those switches to the shortcut that you made
[12:40] <dj-fu> pvd2006, `winecfg`
[12:40] <tjansson> Hi all - I just made the switch from Mandriva (past 4 years)  to Ubuntu dapper flight 5. Every went fine expect that my old account tjansson (uid 501) can't login since all the my old files belong to 501:501 and not tjansson:tjansson - what should I do? Could I somehow change the userid for my new tjansson account to 501?
[12:40] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, still, it's an idea. Would you mind helping me research this?
[12:40] <Simulacra> Solilo: example /usr/bin/foo -a -x whatever
[12:40] <dj-fu> Drac[Server] , I'll take a look around, give me a few minutes. I believe the home directory etc are all maintained on the server, and each client has a base X install which remotely logs into the server
[12:40] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, wait. That wouldn't take care of the fact that the user is located on the local machine...
[12:40] <Zibby> Does Ubuntu need a /boot partition if / is on a Software RAID5?
[12:41] <dj-fu> few mins.
[12:41] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, Oh. Whoops. Nevermind. Go ahead. :)
[12:41] <Simulacra> Zibby: depends
[12:41] <Zibby> on?
[12:41] <dj-fu> the user and users storage would all be on the remote server
[12:41] <dj-fu> which I gather is what you are trying to do
[12:41] <karim> ompaul: no luck, kind of struggling with the one i use. Maybe i have to modify the build-ca script?
[12:41] <RipVanFish> can someone here help me get my ethernet working?
[12:41] <Simulacra> Zibby: If this is something that matter, ie. productions environment, I would say yes.
[12:42] <wd3> how do i upgrade conky?
[12:42] <Simulacra> Zibby: If its just for fun, no
[12:42] <VR_> can anyone help out?  how do i get the status-bar menu in nautilus, like right here? >>> http://web.tampabay.rr.com/vr/statusbar.jpg
[12:42] <IYY> RipVanFish: what's wrong with it?
[12:42] <wd3> apt get something?
[12:42] <ompaul> karim, so tell me did you install it from the repos? sudo apt-get install openvpn? or build it?
[12:42] <Zibby> Simulacra: is production, or will be.
[12:42] <karim> ompaul: from repo
[12:42] <RipVanFish> IYY: It wont send/recieve packets
[12:42] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, that's correct. I do need the network traffic and local system resource strain to be minimal, though. Would this fit the bill?
[12:42] <Simulacra> Zibby: Then best practices would dictate yes
[12:43] <wd3> how do i upgrade conky 1.3 to 1.4 or new, apt get something?
[12:43] <RipVanFish> IYY: like it's the only computer on the network
[12:43] <Solilo> wd3: sudo apt-get update conky
[12:43] <Zibby> Simulacra: Well really I'm trying to figure out why grub didn't work durring installation.
[12:43] <ompaul> karim, okay I should have it working in a few mins just installed it for the first time on 5.10 (but I swear by it :))
[12:43] <Simulacra> Zibby: hmmmm
[12:43] <juztin> help!  i installed the ati video card drivers...and when i rebooted, i got the little ubuntu logo with the loading bar, and then black screen on every tty!  what do i do?
[12:43] <wd3> solilo, does this go for all other progs?
[12:43] <IYY> RipVanFish: but it's recognized?
[12:43] <RipVanFish> IYY: yeah
[12:43] <Solilo> Yeah, you can run just 'sudo apt-get update' to update all packages actually.
[12:43] <Simulacra> Zibby: Should not be because of RAID-5, I would think
[12:43] <karim> ompaul: ok
[12:44] <dj-fu> Drac[Server] , is your server machine reasonable beasty? how many concurrent users?
[12:44] <abhorsen> can someone help me? I posted my problem here: http://ww2d.csoft.net/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=396#p396
[12:44] <Simulacra> Zibby: Someone correct me
[12:44] <wd3> solilo E: The update command takes no arguments
[12:44] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, MY server is just a puny little 400MHz machine, but the ones at the school should be powerful enough to take the load.
[12:44] <IYY> RipVanFish: have you tried the Settings > network tool?
[12:44] <Simulacra> Zibby: how many times have you done the install and grub failed?
[12:44] <RipVanFish> IYY: yes
[12:44] <RipVanFish> IYY: I set up IP and everything else in there
[12:45] <IYY> RipVanFish: clicked on enable?
[12:45] <RipVanFish> IYY: yes
[12:45] <wd3> solilo E: The update command takes no arguments
[12:45] <Random_Transit> hey...how do i get iptables to open a port on my system?
[12:45] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, This machine should be able to serve two machines simultaneously without issues, which is all I need.
[12:45] <abhorsen> can someone help me?
[12:45] <Zibby> Simulacra: Just once. But I decided to change from RAID1 to RAID5, and I just redid the md devices. I didn't change the partition table on the drives.
[12:45] <RipVanFish> IYY: when I run ifconfig it shows up on the list but no packets are being sent/recieved
[12:45] <juztin> help!  i installed the ati video card drivers...and when i rebooted, i got the little ubuntu logo with the loading bar, and then black screen on every tty!  what do i do?
[12:45] <IYY> RipVanFish: is this wireless?
[12:45] <Zibby> I'm zeroing the drives right now to try again. Maybe something funky with the change of raid type.
[12:46] <RipVanFish> IYY: no it's wired
[12:46] <Simulacra> Zibby: I have never done that, so I can't speak from exp on that.
[12:46] <dj-fu> Drac[Server] , right, try this, (just an idea..) system > administration > login window - enable it, then click the configure XDCMP at the bottom
[12:46] <IYY> RipVanFish: using a router?
[12:46] <Simulacra> Zibby: I would give it another try and install again with RAID5
[12:46] <dj-fu> Drac[Server] , then on the other machine, under sessions click XDCMP and specify the IP address of the server
[12:46] <dj-fu> make sure you have a user/pass for the server machine
[12:46] <Zibby> I'm just guessing. I usually spend the extra $ and get a hardware RAID, but budget didn't allow for it this time.
[12:47] <dj-fu> (i've never used this, it's guess work)
[12:47] <RipVanFish> IYY: I am using my college campus connection, but I don't think it's a router
[12:47] <fegor> hola
[12:47] <fernando> hola
[12:47] <Simulacra> I know about budgets
[12:47] <Simulacra> lol
[12:47] <Zibby> At least I have plenty of time to play with it and get it right. :)
[12:47] <Solil1> wd3: Meant to say 'sudo apt-get upgrade', networked killed before I realized that mistake. :P
[12:47] <fegor> que pasa tocayo?
[12:47] <RipVanFish> IYY: the same settings work under Windows
[12:47] <keithhhhhhhhh> has anyone had success installing wine?
[12:47] <htrp> keithhhhhhhhh, yes
[12:47] <Simulacra> document, document, and then document some more.
[12:47] <IYY> RipVanFish: you say you 'set up your ip'. if this is a public network, shouldn't you be using DHCP?
[12:47] <fernando> alguien habla e4spaol aca?
[12:47] <abhorsen> can some noble gentleman lend me some assistance?
[12:47] <green_earz> Random_Transit: have a look at using shorewall for your firewall.
[12:47] <Xenguy> !es
[12:47] <IcemanV9> "sudo apt-get install wine"
[12:47] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:47] <Zibby> abhorsen: ask not to ask, just ask.
[12:47] <keithhhhhhhhh> htrp what version do you use?
[12:47] <fegor> si, yo, Fernando
[12:48] <htrp> [18:47]  <IcemanV9> "sudo apt-get install wine"
[12:48] <htrp> do that
[12:48] <abhorsen> I posted my problem here: http://ww2d.csoft.net/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=396#p396
[12:48] <AngryElf> hey all, what would cause mounting NFS filesystems to take an absurd amount of time.....5+ minutes......but it works out in the end
[12:48] <dj-fu> yes, I've got it installed
[12:48] <keithhhhhhhhh> Iceman okay Ill try
[12:48] <RipVanFish> IYY: well, yes, but I've tried to get help here once before and DHCP wouldn't work
[12:48] <htrp> it'll download and install the latest version
[12:48] <wd3> sudo apt-get upgrade conky?
[12:48] <fegor> vmonos a #ubuntu-es, excuse me all.
[12:48] <RipVanFish> IYY: oddly enough it works in Windows
[12:48] <Alexi5> hello
[12:48] <wd3> solilo sudo apt-get upgrade conky?
[12:48] <Solil1> Yessir, applies to all packages.
[12:48] <Zibby> RipVanFish: does your DHCP server require sending a host name?
[12:49] <juztin> help!  i installed the ati video card drivers...and when i rebooted, i got the little ubuntu logo with the loading bar, and then black screen on every tty!  what do i do?
[12:49] <IcemanV9> keithhhhhhhhh: 0.0.20050725-0ubuntu1.1 (wine) (breezy, of course)
[12:49] <RipVanFish> Zibby: yes, I think it might
[12:49] <pvd2006> What does this mean? Debian binary and source .debs for Debian unstable
[12:49] <Alexi5> i  want to allow my windows xp partition to be mounted when i boot my system. how do i do that
[12:49] <pvd2006> The "Debian Unstable" part
[12:49] <Solil1> Alexi5: Add the entry to /etc/fstab.
[12:49] <Random_Transit> green_earz...so after installing shorewall, do i need to disable iptables?
[12:49] <Zibby> RipVanFish: Sec, have to pull up a Ubuntu box to look at something. ;)
[12:49] <RipVanFish> Zibby: come to think of it they need the host name and my ethernet address
[12:50] <Zibby> RipVanFish: Edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf, add a line send host-name "hostname";
[12:50] <IYY> RipVanFish: when you tried DHCP, did you get an IP address?
[12:50] <ceatech> how can I add a launcher to the panel manually? I need to do this scripted so I can't use smeg
[12:50] <bimberi> Random_Transit: shorewall uses iptables
[12:50] <abhorsen> Zibby:  I am having trouble installing WW2D, a worldwind like problem.  I am going to try to install the whole thing from the beginning again. .
[12:50] <IcemanV9> !tell Alexi5 about mountwindows
[12:50] <Random_Transit> ahh
[12:50] <Random_Transit> ok
[12:50] <RipVanFish> IYY: no it said that it couldn't find any DHCP servers
[12:50] <Zibby> RipVanFish: then do ifdown eth0; ifup eth0 and cross your fingers
[12:51] <Amaranth> ceatech: as i said in #gnome, you need to put a valid .desktop file in /usr/share/applications
[12:51] <RipVanFish> Zibby: alright I'll give this a try
[12:51] <fernando> acepta fegor
[12:51] <RipVanFish> IYY: I'll be back, have something to try out
[12:51] <Amaranth> ceatech: the ones smeg (alacarte) makes have no Categories key so using them outside of smeg will cause them to be sorted into the "Other" menu
[12:52] <juztin> help!  i installed the ati video card drivers...and when i rebooted, i got the little ubuntu logo with the loading bar, and then black screen on every tty!  what do i do?
[12:52] <abhorsen> got to go
[12:52] <Solil1> Only a black screen, no login prompt?
[12:52] <juztin> Solil1, nope
[12:52] <juztin> Solil1, after the laoding bar, its just black
[12:52] <Drac[Server] > dj-fu, I'm afraid I'm running Dapper (please don't abandon me, here), so my GDM config is a bit different. Hold on.
[12:52] <fegor> que acepte el que fernando
[12:53] <ic56> window 2
[12:53] <IcemanV9> juztin: did you modify xorg.conf?
[12:53] <juztin> IcemanV9, yes
[12:53] <ceatech> amaranth: I can't even find the ones smeg makes. They don't appear to be in the /usr/share/applications folder...
[12:53] <IcemanV9> ah k
[12:53] <ratiocinate> Hey - does anyone know a command line tool that can give you the length in seconds of a .wav file?
[12:53] <Amaranth> ceatech: nope, they're in ~/.local/share/applications
[12:53] <juztin> IcemanV9, i reconfigured xserver-xorg
[12:53] <ompaul> karim, okay so what steps have you taken to create this key or are you just stuck
[12:53] <IcemanV9> Drac[Server] : it would be a good idea to go over to #ubuntu+1 (dapper help)
[12:53] <juztin> IcemanV9, so i'm assuming xorg.conf was modified?
[12:54] <Drac[Server] > IcemanV9, yes, and wait for six hours before I get an answer. What a great idea!
[12:54] <IcemanV9> juztin: hmm. ah. did u checked?
[12:54] <IcemanV9> Drac[Server] : ha. sorry.
[12:54] <ceatech> Amaranth: ahh.. so if I vi the *.desktop file and add the categories=line, that should fix it?
[12:54] <Amaranth> ceatech: yeah
[12:54] <karim> ompaul: i did the ./vars and the ./clean-all successfully but the ./build-ca return the help menu
[12:54] <juztin> IcemanV9, i can't...after the loading bar, i get black screen and that's it
[12:54] <juztin> IcemanV9, and the loading bar is the wrong color
[12:54] <guitar256> what codec do i need to play m4a (AAC) files???
[12:54] <guitar256> !aac
[12:55] <ubotu> rumour has it, aac is read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats for information about aac support
[12:55] <schtinky> what repository do I have to have to apt-get 855resolution?
[12:55] <IcemanV9> juztin: ok. ctrl+atl+f1
[12:55] <schtinky> it doesn't seem to be in the universe repo
[12:55] <IcemanV9> juztin: can you get to the console now?
[12:56] <_sHaDe> n8 all
[12:56] <ubuntu-user> is there a way to have X over SSH work on reverse SSH tunnels?
[12:56] <Alexi5> can i write to the ntfs partition once it is mounted
[12:56] <juztin> IcemanV9, no, when i try to switch its still black...i don't even know for sure if it's switching
[12:56] <shadou> Drac[Server] , did you get it running
[12:56] <IcemanV9> no, Alexi5
[12:56] <shadou> Alexi5, NTFS write support is highly experimental
[12:56] <Drac[Server] > shadou, get what running?
[12:57] <shadou> XDMCP
[12:57] <Zibby> Alexi5:  highly experimental = don't do it unless you like data loss.
[12:57] <Alexi5> ok
[12:57] <shadou> Zibby has the right idea ;p
[12:57] <IcemanV9> juztin: oh wow. ok. that is not good.
[12:57] <shadou> Format your windows partitions to fat32 for compatibility
[12:57] <juztin> IcemanV9, what should i do?
[12:58] <IcemanV9> juztin: ctrl+atl+f2 .. f3 .. f4? nothing?
[12:58] <Drac[Server] > shadou, no. Not yet. I have yet to figure out how to configure it in the new GDM.
[12:58] <juztin> IcemanV9, nope...black screen for all of them
[12:58] <TANATHOS> is there anyone able to tell me the best shaper for rooter?
[12:58] <Drac[Server] > Ah! Here it is. :D
[12:58] <schtinky> how can I get the 855resolution package? apt-get can't find it and the source won't compile
[12:58] <Zibby> Or look at http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd to mount ext2/3 on windows.
[12:59] <IcemanV9> juztin: do u have liveCD? if so, boot with it. then mount hd. edit xorg.conf
[12:59] <juztin> IcemanV9, i have a knoppix livecd...
[12:59] <Zibby> Though that probally has the same warnings as NTFS write support :p
[12:59] <IcemanV9> juztin: that'll work; i am not familiar with knoppix though.
[12:59] <shadou> I can't pm you cause your nick isn't registered, Drac[Server] .
[12:59] <Mabus06> what's the C equivalent for 'c++ filetocompile.cpp -o program.out'
[01:00] <conn> quick question, how do you people create diffs? I tried "diff dir1 dir2 >patch.diff", and when I try to apply the patch "patch -p0 <patch.diff" it doesn't work. Is there some switches I should specify to create a diff that will actually work for patching purposes?
[01:00] <juztin> IcemanV9, i can figure it out, if you can just tell me what to edit :)
[01:00] <shadou> Mabus06, 'gcc'
[01:00] <Drac[Server] > shadou, try again.
[01:00] <Xenguy> conn: diff is for files isn't it?
[01:00] <IcemanV9> juztin: in xorg.conf file, modify driver "ati" to driver "fglrx"
[01:01] <bsdfox> dude format it fat32, you will kick yourself later if you don't
[01:01] <juztin> IcemanV9, that's what i set it as when i configured xserver-xorg...it was previously set to vesa
[01:01] <Xenguy> conn: i.e. not dirs
[01:01] <bsdfox> it's the only good one for windows and *nix read/write
[01:01] <michael117> I have VLC media player installed as well as the plugin to make it work with mozilla (firefox), but am still not able to watch videos such as this one: http://poststuff4.entensity.net/031306/media.php?media=potato.wmv even after I download it by itself
[01:02] <Xenguy> ntfs may be technically superior, but it doesn't interoperate well with linux folk
[01:02] <IcemanV9> juztin: something went wrong; try to check to make sure
[01:02] <AngryElf> how do i find out what ati driver i'm currently using?
[01:02] <Zibby> personally I perfer samba, but that assumes you have mutiple computers instead of dual boot.
[01:02] <Mabus06> dj-fu: how do I do it though?
[01:02] <Mabus06> dj-fu: gcc file.c -o file.out ??
[01:02] <dj-fu> Mabus06, yeah.
[01:02] <anstei_> michael117, probably that video uses the WMV10 codec, which is not yet available for linux
[01:02] <natalie> hello, I have to ask for some help.  When I was loading up 5.10 in recovery mode, I decided to let it continue past the request for root login.  It then froze when it got to the login screen.  Can anyone suggest a help for me?
[01:03] <bsdfox> this is what I do.. make a big fat32 partition for movies and music, then use whatever partition for whatever other os
[01:03] <juztin> su
[01:03] <bsdfox> that way you can always read or write to it
[01:04] <bsdfox> or I create like a 5g partition that's fat32 just to use to swap stuff but that's a pain (what you gotta do if you have ntfs though)
[01:04] <Xappe> michael117: i use w32codecs and the MediaPlayerConnectivity extension for firefox (that video works with that setup)
[01:04] <juztin> IcemanV9, where can i find xorg.conf?
[01:05] <IcemanV9> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:05] <natalie> oh, as a side note, I can only get 5.10 to run when I log in as root
[01:05] <Mischevious> can somone help me with an installing question please.
[01:05] <RipVanFish> Zibby: came back with error temporary name resolution or something
[01:05] <juztin> IcemanV9, there is no xorg.conf there
[01:05] <Zibby> Mischevious: ask not to ask, just ask.
[01:05] <IcemanV9> juztin: ha? gone?
[01:06] <Mischevious> im trying to install amarok, via source.. it must be source... and it complains about autoconf, i have the newest autoconf but i think it's instaleld in the wrong place, how do i fix this
[01:06] <IcemanV9> juztin: that IS odd.
[01:06] <schtinky> is it possible to upgrade from 5.04 to 5.1 without downloading a new install DVD? can I just apt-get my way to the new version or something?
[01:06] <juztin> IcemanV9, do i need to reinstall ubuntu?
[01:06] <RipVanFish> IYY: any ideas?
[01:07] <akcom> What package contains hdiutil?
[01:07] <Zibby> schtinky: Yes
[01:07] <ompaul> karim, I am now offically scratching my head I can get a few different errors
[01:07] <IcemanV9> juztin: i don't think so. i don't remember how to recreate xorg.conf. maybe someone here knows.
[01:07] <schtinky> zibby, how
[01:07] <ompaul> karim, gime a coupld of mins
[01:07] <IYY> RipVanFish: Zibby suggested one earlier
[01:07] <juztin> how do i recreate xorg.conf?
[01:07] <RipVanFish> IYY: yeah that didn't work out
[01:07] <Zibby> schtinky: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade
[01:08] <pvd2006> I am trying to isntall wine on ubuntu using winecfg but when I click ok it keeps saying  Failed to create directory 'L"C:\\windows\\profiles...
[01:08] <akcom> Nevermind, it's OSX only.  Is there any application I can use that can convert from the UDTO disk image type (dmg files) to an iso?
[01:08] <karim> ompaul: ok, hope it's not the KEY_DIR one!!!
[01:08] <IYY> RipVanFish: no idea....
[01:09] <Omega-red> ubuntu and 3d on ati xpress 200m igp, anybody knows how?
[01:09] <Zibby> RipVanFish: If you configure it with a static IP does it work?
[01:09] <RipVanFish> Zibby: doesn't work even then
[01:09] <Zibby> RipVanFish: What kind of network card?
[01:10] <RipVanFish> Zibby: - Realtek RTL8201CL 10/100 Ethernet LAN PHY
[01:10] <zenbum> possibly dumb question: if i want to add kde packages while still retaining all the gnome stuff (including gdm as the default dm), can i just apt-get install kubuntu-desktop?
[01:10] <RipVanFish> Zibby: it's integrated
[01:11] <Mischevious> can somone help me with this please, i do have autoconf installed http://pastebin.com/617167
[01:11] <ompaul> karim, no I can't get openssl to kick off
[01:12] <natalie> Hello, I am hoping that someone can help me. The only time that I can get Ubuntu to not freeze up is when I start in recovery mode and log in as root.  If I try to start up any other way it goes in to full kernel panic.  Any help would be much appreciated.
[01:12] <juztin> in the ubuntu installer, what is the difference between "Erase entire disk" and "Erase entire disk and use LVM"?
[01:13] <Mischevious> juztin, lvm is bad, stay away from it
[01:13] <Zibby> RipVanFish: http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=1&CatID=1190&SubCatID=147
[01:13] <karim> ompaul: hum, not sure i figure out that one
[01:13] <Noahj> How do I do keycodes like in windows?
[01:13] <Zibby> RipVanFish: looks like the driver may not be in Ubuntu based on a quick google search :)
[01:13] <akcom> How do I find the location of my perl interpretter?
[01:13] <juztin> Mischevious, roger.
[01:13] <ceatech> Amaranth: thanks for the help. Works great!
[01:13] <Zibby> akcom: which perl
[01:14] <akcom> thank you
[01:14] <RipVanFish> Zibby: according to this it should be working https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/24801
[01:15] <cratel2> is there an equivalent to Windows' "map network drive" so I can have apps send their output to a remote computer instead of a file from the command line?
[01:15] <Mischevious> can somone help me with this please, i do have autoconf installed into /usr/local/bin/autoconf http://pastebin.com/617167
[01:15] <majd> hey
[01:15] <majd> i need some help setting up my HP Photosmart 3200
[01:15] <majd> i have the installation cd
[01:15] <majd> but i dont' believe it works on linux
[01:16] <n4cht> could someone point me to the default gtkrc for breezy, or perhaps an app that allows for easy tweaking of gtkrc?
[01:16] <Zibby> RipVanFish: are you installing Dapper?
[01:16] <chuckyp> majd, what are you trying to do?
[01:16] <Mischevious> majd, you don't need a driver
[01:16] <majd> i set it up before, i can't remember what i did though. I have it hooked up to my router
[01:16] <Mischevious> majd, go to system>administration>printing>add printer
[01:16] <chuckyp> n4cht, what is gtkrc?
[01:16] <RipVanFish> Zibby: It's already installed
[01:16] <majd> and i have "detect lan printers" enabled
[01:16] <majd> Mischevious, i did that, it didn't work
[01:16] <Zibby> I only deal with stable releases
[01:16] <sponix2ipfw> OK, so whats the general rule of thumb when picking kernels, do they have to be the same version number all the way down the the minor patch & build revision numbers ?
[01:16] <majd> i don't know what usb port it's hooked up to
[01:16] <n4cht> gtkrc is what i have to edit so that i can force gtk to conform with the font sizes that i have fluxbox using.
[01:17] <zenbum> Zibby: so you only use debian?  ;-)
[01:17] <brenner> natalie: breezy or dapper?
[01:17] <chuckyp> n4cht, try apt-cache search gtkrc
[01:17] <natalie> brenner: breezy
[01:17] <Zibby> zenbum: yeah, Ubuntu is still debian(ish) ;-)
[01:17] <simstudios> nas
[01:17] <n4cht> it's already installed, chuckyp.  i just need to know where the default gtkrc is in breezy.   /etc/gtk has like 50 of 'em./
[01:17] <simstudios> q tal?
[01:18] <juztin> what happened to #linux?
[01:18] <Abnix> just a point of curiosity....fresh install of ubuntu... I know I *had* a xterm of soem sort in my menus...I don't now, nor do I ahve a 'Run command' menu item, plus sshd is not running... how the crap can I open a terminal window?
[01:18] <Mischevious> can somone help me with this please, i do have autoconf installed into /usr/local/bin/autoconf http://pastebin.com/617167
[01:19] <FlannelKing> ctrl-alt-f2?  I think.  something like that (they did knowingly remove it, it's not a bug)
[01:19] <brenner> natalie: do you get any errors/info besides kernel panic?
[01:19] <bimberi> Abnix: <alt>F2
[01:19] <Abnix> ok, thank you
[01:19] <brenner> juztin: ask #freenode maybe
[01:19] <chuckyp> n4cht, isnt' there a config somewhere?
[01:19] <chuckyp> !tell n4cht about fonts
[01:19] <Abnix> there's a rant there jsut waiting to explode from someone's fingertips...
[01:19] <bimberi> Abnix: terminal via Applications -> Accessories
[01:19] <n4cht> gtkrc _is_ a config.
[01:19] <Mischevious> can somone help me with this please, i do have autoconf installed into /usr/local/bin/autoconf http://pastebin.com/617167
[01:20] <brenner> Abnix: apps>accessories>terminal
[01:20] <natalie> brenner:  When I logged in in recovery mode and decided to not log in as root, I received some kind of login error.  I don't remember exatctly what it was.
[01:20] <Abnix> alrighty, now was it apt-get install kde or....?
[01:20] <ompaul> karim, I have to stop now and attack this in the morning, I need it myself so tomorrow is not a bad day to attack it
[01:20] <Noahj> Do I have to use gucharmap to select characters every time I want a special charactier?
[01:21] <ompaul> karim, its after midnight here and my brain is getting foggy
[01:21] <htrp> 
[01:21] <majd> what kind of printer should i choose? cups? windows, unix, or HP JedDirect ?
[01:21] <Abnix> ah ha! yes! it was!...
[01:21] <brenner> natalie: at what point does it freeze if you do a normal boot?
[01:22] <brenner> Abnix: recommended method is to get kubuntu-desktop
[01:22] <Abnix> brenner: ahh yes! thank you!
[01:23] <natalie> brenner: it freezes at the login point.  whether or not my gdm is set to run on its own.
[01:23] <Zibby> majd: Depends on how your printer is connected.
[01:23] <Mischevious> can somone help me with this please, i do have autoconf installed into /usr/local/bin/autoconf http://pastebin.com/617167
[01:23] <Abnix> and dont mind my abussive use of !'s folks....I just find it, odd we'll say, to find a irc help channel, that is actually helpfull....
[01:23] <Paradosso> hi little OT question
[01:23] <Paradosso> how do i know my INTERNAL ip, if I am behind a router?
[01:23] <ompaul> Paradosso, ifconfig
[01:23] <majd> Zibby it's hooked up to the same wireless router my computer is
[01:24] <Zibby> majd: so it's a network printer?
[01:24] <majd> Zibby, yeah
[01:24] <majd> it's also hooked up to the computer through usb
[01:24] <neo911> anyone here from Texas? what time is it there now? thanks...
[01:25] <Abnix> should be around 6:24 pm I think
[01:25] <Zibby> majd: well pick a method geez. :p
[01:25] <Mischevious> can somone help me with this please, i do have autoconf installed into /usr/local/bin/autoconf http://pastebin.com/617167
[01:25] <chuckyp> anyone know how to add an application to startup on xfce?
[01:25] <Abnix> or it could be 5:24...
[01:25] <majd> Zibby it doesn't matter?
[01:25] <chuckyp> Mischevious, how did you install autoconf?
[01:25] <Abnix> chuckyp: add it to .xinitrc ?
[01:25] <Mischevious> chuckyp, apt-get
[01:25] <Zibby> majd: Check your router's documentation for how it shares the printer. Or if you're lazy, run nmap agnist your router ;)
[01:25] <Noahj> chuckyp: I would edit .xsession
[01:25] <neo911> Abnix, thx
[01:26] <bimberi> neo911: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/ is a handy bookmark :)
[01:26] <neo911> oh
[01:26] <chuckyp> Abnix, Noahj which is proper?
[01:26] <karim> ompaul: ok thanks for helping. Good night
[01:26] <phusniken> how do i install ethereal
[01:27] <neo911> bimberi, nice link... pretty handy
[01:27] <phusniken> with apt-get ?
[01:27] <phusniken> it came seem to find it
[01:27] <crimsun> !info ethereal
[01:27] <ubotu> ethereal: (network traffic analyzer), section universe/net, is optional. Version: 0.10.12-2ubuntu3 (breezy), Packaged size: 485 kB, Installed size: 1312 kB
[01:27] <brenner> Mischevious: what are you installing?
[01:27] <n4cht> ok, so no one knows anything about editing gtkrc, or any apps that do it easier?
[01:27] <Mischevious> brenner, amarok
[01:27] <Zibby> Mischevious: echo $PATH, make sure /usr/local/bin is before /usr/bin for starters
[01:27] <Mischevious> Zibby, /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games
[01:27] <phusniken> crimsun im new to ethereal
[01:27] <phusniken> how would i get it
[01:27] <brenner> Mischevious: i assume you're not happy w/ the repos version?
[01:27] <chuckyp> n4cht, what are you trying to accomplish by editing it?  Why not just do a locate for the file then nano the file?
[01:28] <phusniken> err ubuntu i mean
[01:28] <Mischevious> brenner, i need to compile it with a switch
[01:28] <crimsun> phusniken: enable universe, then use Synaptic to install it
[01:28] <loan> HOLA
[01:28] <chuckyp> Abnix, Noahj which is proper? .xinitrc or .xsession I have neither right now.
[01:28] <phusniken> how do i enable universe
[01:28] <Abnix> chuckyp: well as I know it, .xsession is for as the name implies, setting up sessions for X.    whereas .xinitrc is a rc script that runs programs for you upon init
[01:28] <ReWT_AxS> sudo apt-get install ethereal
[01:28] <Mischevious> Abnix, correct
[01:28] <Abnix> it theoreticly can go in both
[01:28] <chuckyp> Abnix, gotcha you
[01:28] <LordMelkor> i need some help making a bash script
[01:29] <crimsun> !tell phusniken about repos
[01:29] <chuckyp> Abnix, so .xsession would be proper
[01:29] <Xenguy> chuckyp: no, you want 'Autostart' I think
[01:29] <brenner> natalie: i'm not much good w/ kernel panics.  there are a ton of forum topics on them though it seems. sorry.
[01:29] <ReWT_AxS> lord to do?
[01:29] <Mischevious> brenner, any ideas
[01:29] <LordMelkor> im trying to make a script such that i can run midis in firefox
[01:29] <loan> alguien de aqui habla espaol?
[01:29] <majd> weird, the printer seems to be not working, it shows 0.0.0.0 for IP
[01:29] <Zibby> Mischevious: Look at like 33 of admin/cvs.sh. That's the command generating the error. It might give you a clue on what to do to fix it.
[01:29] <chuckyp> Xenguy, I just want to launch an application upon logging in to xfce.
[01:29] <phusniken> rewt tgat dont wor
[01:29] <LordMelkor> i got it to open timidity but i dont know what to write to get the name of the midi file
[01:29] <pvd2006> Does anyone here know how to configure wine on ubuntu? I got the newest version from the wineHQ respository and installed it through synaptic. Now when I try to run winecfg and hit ok it tries to write  the files to C:\..., Is there a way I can fix this so it doesnt do that?
[01:29] <Mischevious> Zibby, okay, where do i find admin/cvs.sh
[01:29] <brenner> Mischevious: i'm not too familiar w/ cvs myself.  i usually just grab the latest src tarball
[01:30] <n4cht> chuckyp, 1) i know where it is.  it's in /etc/gtk.   go there.  tell me how many gtkrc files you see.   2) i'm trying to make the default gtk look in fluxbox conform with the fluxbox style i'm using.  that has to be done with the gtkrc.  since almost everyone here uses gnome, or kde i'm realizing i may not get the answers i'm looking for.  heh.
[01:30] <Zibby> Mischevious: I dunno, you downloaded the source.
[01:30] <Mischevious> brenner, yea but thsi script is supposed to be good
[01:30] <neo911> anyone know how broadband works? does it use SNAT to allow machines behind the gateway router to access internet? thx
[01:30] <LordMelkor> pvd2006 let it do what its doing the change the home dir
[01:30] <LordMelkor> pvd2006 let it do what its doing the change the in wine
[01:30] <Abnix> chuckyp: if you go the .xinitrc route, know that you ahve to put a & behind the command, other wise the x server will start, run your desired program *only*    then when you kill that you'd be dumped out of x
[01:30] <phusniken> what file do i need to edit
[01:30] <phusniken> to enable all the repo's
[01:30] <chuckyp> n4cht, i'm running a different version than you don't have that file.
[01:31] <Xenguy> chuckyp: OK, well AFAIK the standard way to start stuff up in xfce4 is by putting, for example a bash script in ~/Desktop/Autostart, but feel free to try .xinitrc/.xsession to see if that works (I'm not sure it will tho)
[01:31] <chuckyp> Abnix, I know.
[01:31] <neo911> !repositories
[01:31] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[01:31] <n4cht> if you're running _anything_ with gtk, you will have a gtkrc file.
[01:31] <chuckyp> Xenguy, I'll try both.
[01:31] <LordMelkor> i need some help making a bash script  im trying to make a script such that i can run midis in firefox i got it to open timidity but i dont know what to write to get the name of the midi file
[01:31] <chuckyp> n4cht, i'm running gtk-2.0
[01:31] <pvd2006> lordmelkor , it gives me errors that state err:shell:SHGetFolderPathW Failed to create directory 'L"C:\\windows\\profiles\\
[01:31] <n4cht> as am i.  somewhere on your system, there is a gtkrc file.
[01:32] <Xenguy> chuckyp: I'd be interested in the results you get
[01:32] <chuckyp> n4cht, hold i'll search for you.
[01:32] <Abnix> chuckyp: cool.   when I first ahd to do that years ago with waimea/kahakai/andsomeotheronewhosnameescapesme, I had a few 'WTF?!'s hollered at my screen....
[01:32] <chuckyp> Xenguy, i'll let you know here I have a huge update going right now.  I'll try .xinitrc first
[01:32] <LordMelkor> pvd2006 try auto config tools like sidenet or winetools
[01:32] <Xenguy> chuckyp: tx
[01:33] <chuckyp> n4cht, try /usr/share/themes/whatever theme you are running gtkrc
[01:33] <neo911> i want to learn solaris but it is expensive so it's not accessible to a student like me. can i learn solaris by way of using linux since they're both unix right? thx
[01:33] <n4cht> chuckyp, i'm not running an actual gtk theme.   i'm running fluxbox, which uses gtk.
[01:34] <chuckyp> n4cht, hrm... well I have no idea then.
[01:34] <LordMelkor> how do people have dapper already... isnt it not out yet
[01:34] <n4cht> apparently, through some searching, gtkrc.utf-8 is the default.
[01:35] <Noahj> LordMelkor: flight 5
[01:35] <LordMelkor> i need some help making a bash script  im trying to make a script such that i can run midis in firefox i got it to open timidity but i dont know what to write to get the name of the input file???
[01:35] <LordMelkor> Noahj what are you talking about
[01:35] <ubuntu> hi
[01:36] <ubuntu> im trying ubuntu live to see if my hardware is supported
[01:36] <Enthusiast78> LordMelkor: Do you want the script to receive the filename?
[01:36] <LordMelkor> Enthusiast78 yes
[01:36] <Enthusiast78> LordMelkor: Is the script written in bash?
[01:36] <LordMelkor> ay
[01:36] <brenner> ubuntu: you might want to change your nick :P
[01:36] <michael117> Is there a way I can make XMMS simulate 5.1 while playing a stereo mp3 file?
[01:36] <Enthusiast78> LordMelkor: I guess what you need is the $1 variable from within the bash script.
[01:36] <ubuntu> lol
[01:37] <IYY> ubuntu: looks like it's supported, you're online after all :p
[01:37] <ubuntu_tester> hows this ;)
[01:37] <ubuntu_tester> well i cant see my hard drives
[01:37] <Noahj> Lordmelkor: there is a dapper repo, and you can get flight 5 from there
[01:37] <ubuntu_tester> im using a nvidia raid card (nv4 chipset)
[01:37] <ubuntu_tester> raid 0 with 2 raptors
[01:37] <LordMelkor> Enthusiast78 its not really much of a script it just has the !/bin/bash at the top and a command line command to run midis
[01:38] <LordMelkor> THX enthusiast it works!
[01:39] <phusniken> how would i install tight-vnc
[01:39] <phusniken> seems apt-get cant find any packages i want
[01:39] <Zibby> phusniken: try synaptic
[01:39] <bimberi> neo911: solaris and linux commands are similar, the main differences are in directory structures.  That said, have you heard of http://www.opensolaris.org/ ?
[01:40] <phusniken> Zibby its not listed
[01:40] <phusniken> in there
[01:40] <phusniken> neither is ethereal
[01:40] <phusniken> almost hard to believe
[01:40] <neo911> bimberi, yes i just heard of it... thanks for the info :-)
[01:41] <brenner> ubuntu_tester: define can't see.  did you try mounting them manually?
[01:41] <Zibby> phusniken: or aptitude from the console. Tight VNC and etherreal are there. Might be in universe though.
[01:41] <nate_> ohh my god guys i just got my linux to play a cd
[01:41] <ubuntu_tester> brenner: how do i do that, quite frankly im a noob
[01:41] <Mischevious> nate_, good job man
[01:41] <Enthusiast78> LordMelkor: Still, I think the $1 variable within the scrip will give you the first parameter the script receives, then you can call something like 'timidity $1' from within the script...
[01:41] <Noahj> nate_: was it hard?
[01:41] <ubuntu_tester> im just trying this because im sick of XP crashing
[01:41] <juztin> as far as standard screen sizes....640x480, then 800x600, then 1024x768....what is next after 1024x768?
[01:41] <bimberi> phusniken: tightvncserver and ethereal are in the universe repository ...
[01:41] <nate_> i've been working on this for 2 weeks finally i broke down and bought a 7 dollar cobra soundcard
[01:42] <bimberi> !tell phusniken about universe
[01:42] <LordMelkor> Enthusiast78 ya it worked thanks
[01:42] <Enthusiast78> LordMelkor: Pretty cool!
[01:42] <Mischevious> nate_, cobra? never heard of it.. :-D and 7$ wow..
[01:42] <Mischevious> must be obscure
[01:42] <bimberi> Zibby: oops, didn't see your post :)
[01:42] <ubuntu_tester> do you think the nvidia raid drivers are natively installed on this 'live cd'
[01:42] <nate_> yeah 4 channel
[01:42] <Mischevious> ubuntu_tester, maybe
[01:43] <Mischevious> nate_, cheap stuff works good with linux though.
[01:43] <ubuntu_tester> whats the command to mount that partition?
[01:43] <Mischevious> nate_, because it usually uses default drivers
[01:43] <nate_> yeah ubuntu_tester...windoze is only good for the main stream 3d games
[01:43] <hippie23> does any1 know how to disable the internal montor on a iMac dv400....... Im running an external monitor cuz the internal one is almost gone, I want to turn thin internal one off and have just the external monitor since the imac is on the floor.. running Ubuntu Breezy
[01:43] <Zibby> phusniken: The packages you want are in universe, so you have to add universe to your sources.list
[01:43] <DVSoftware> hello
[01:43] <juztin> as far as standard screen sizes....640x480, then 800x600, then 1024x768....what is next after 1024x768?
[01:43] <sinclair44> i've got what appears to be a copy-protected audio CD: when i put it in the drive, it spins for a moment and spits it back out. is there any way to force it to mount, or to see an error message at least?
[01:44] <ubuntu_tester> i wanna try running WoW using wine, if that works then im done with windows
[01:44] <DVSoftware> 1280x1024
[01:44] <juztin> ty
[01:44] <Mischevious> juztin, 1152x1024
[01:44] <pvd2006> Whats up  with all these samba port scans... Ive had like 40 in the last 6 hours.
[01:44] <juztin> um
[01:44] <Mischevious> juztin, 1152 comes first
[01:44] <nate_> yeah mischevious i also bought a coldcathode 3 fancontroller from vantec and a round ide my case is freakin sick looking
[01:44] <Zibby> bimberi: np, I never remember to use the bot anyway :)
[01:44] <brenner> ubuntu_tester: sys >help >starter guide >mount windows partitions
[01:44] <ubuntu_tester> thanks
[01:44] <bimberi> sinclair44: my PC does that with bad CD's
[01:44] <RipVanFish> :(
[01:44] <DVSoftware> i need information what ubuntu uses for xorg configuration autodetection on livecd?
[01:45] <Mischevious> DVSoftware, what do you mean
[01:45] <DVSoftware> i'm building my custom livecd and i desperately need some sort of detection
[01:45] <Consty> Whenever I play videos on my computer (after downloading the restricted codecs pack) whenever I skip backward/forward I sometimes hear a brief squeal before the sound starts up again.  I've narrowed it down to the codecs because it happens with all video players and mp3 files play fine with the same done in XMMS with no problems.  So I dont think it's an ALSA issue either.
[01:45] <sinclair44> bimberi: the CD plays fine in my stereo, so i guess it's intentionally done for copy protection? i've got two here that don't work, but all my others seem fine
[01:45] <brenner> ubuntu_tester: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions might be helpful too
[01:45] <DVSoftware> ubuntu correctly configures xorg for my notebook
[01:45] <bimberi> sinclair44: kk
[01:46] <ubuntu_tester> Hey thanks brenner, im reading this help it is very good
[01:46] <DVSoftware> knoppix's detection script fails for example
[01:46] <cocozz> Hi, is there any way to contact an ubuntu package maintainer ?
[01:46] <Mischevious> DVSoftware, oh, ubutnu owns
[01:46] <ubuntu_tester> i use slack a long time ago, wow this is light years ahead it seems
[01:46] <ubuntu_tester> like slack 6
[01:47] <DVSoftware> Mischevious: can you please point me to some resource about xorg autodetection
[01:48] <phusniken> when trying to start vnc i'm getting an error about oepning font fixed
[01:48] <RipVanFish> anybody know what's wrong with my ethernet?
[01:49] <Zibby> !tell cocozz about bugtracker
[01:49] <nate_> does anyone know where i could get an
[01:49] <nate_> i tunes emulater for my ipod?
[01:49] <Zibby> RipVanFish: try the driver provided by VIA as previously suggested.
[01:49] <Abnix> ok, I gotta ask, is there *anyone* that truely uses term windows with the default black text on white background?
[01:50] <RipVanFish> Zibby: oh that directed me to an XP driver :S
[01:50] <Zibby> Abnix: You hear crickets chirping.
[01:50] <brenner> Abnix: i'm sure there are
[01:51] <Abnix> Zibby: that's what I thought!
[01:51] <majd> hey, with the default driver for my printer, i don't have an option to print in draft
[01:51] <majd> is there a way to fix this?
[01:51] <Zibby> majd: Empty your toner cartridge.
[01:51] <majd> i tried that
[01:51] <Abnix> hehe  from the gentoo channel with the same question:  18:50 <DJGummikuh> Abnix: I do  18:51 <DJGummikuh> because I don't know how to change
[01:51] <majd> made a mess
[01:52] <nate_> han anyone tried to run an ipod on linux?
[01:52] <crash_> Just installed Dapper Flight 5.. no sound. ^^;;
[01:52] <majd> nate_, i did
[01:52] <nate_> any tips majd?
[01:52] <Zibby> nate_: ubuntu sees it no problem.
[01:52] <RipVanFish> Zibby: aha I found something
[01:52] <DVSoftware> nate_: amarok
[01:52] <nate_> use amarok?
[01:52] <RipVanFish> The Ethernet hardware consists of two parts: a PHY chip, and a MAC chip. It's the MAC chip that requires the drivers. RTL8201x is a PHY only chip which does NOT need any driver at all.
[01:52] <DVSoftware> yes
[01:52] <crash_> I believe I agree with DVSoftware on that.
[01:52] <majd> personally, i'm a noob, so i probably did something lucky. I used gtkpod (i think that was it's name) and linux auto mounted it...no problem
[01:52] <majd> it was a breeze tbh
[01:52] <nate_> is that for KDE or Gnome DVSoftware?
[01:52] <Enthusiast78> I have installed locales and localeconf and set the default system locale to 'C', but my user still has it set to another language... How can I change my user settings? I want plain English, I think 'C' English is the thing...
[01:52] <majd> gnome i believe
[01:53] <oblib> How do I customize the image that displays after logging in but before my background kicks in?
[01:53] <crash_> KDE.
[01:53] <oblib> With "Human" it's just plain brown
[01:53] <nate_> so that will work with Ubuntu then ?
[01:53] <majd> nate_, yeah , i got it to work
[01:53] <crash_> It'd install the necessary stuff with the whole apt-get and all.
[01:53] <nate_> so once i find my ipod...its somewhere around my house and use amarok?
[01:53] <brenner> oblib: sys>admin>login>gtk greeter>bg color
[01:53] <RipVanFish> Zibby: can you send me that link again just in case?
[01:54] <brenner> oblib: or just use gtweakui :P
[01:54] <crash_> Just installed Dapper Flight 5.. no sound. ^^;; Ideas?
[01:54] <nate_> did u get amarok from apt get?
[01:54] <oblib> brenner, can I do an image, or just a color?
[01:54] <crimsun> crash_: pastebin the output from ``lspci -v && cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer -c0''
[01:54] <crash_> Sure I did.  Might have gotten it with the whole-on Kubuntu-desktop package, but it'd be good.
[01:54] <oblib> brenner, nm found it
[01:55] <crash_> Pastebin-- that a channel on FreeNode?
[01:55] <brenner> oblib: colour onlyafaik.  why would you image it anwyay?  it lasts for half a second
[01:55] <crimsun> !tell crash_ about pastebin
[01:55] <FunkTard> Please can someone tell me what the password is for the ubuntu "virtual appliance" that you can download from vmware?....I can't install software because I don't have the password
[01:55] <crimsun> FunkTard: see the vmware Web page
[01:55] <crash_> Gotcha, I'll do that.
[01:56] <nate_> where do you guys get dapper?
[01:56] <oblib> brenner, it's for a mythTV box, and the brown blurb is ugly. I'll do black if not an image
[01:56] <FunkTard> crimsun, it says the password is vmware....but that doesn't work
[01:57] <kapputu> Hi All
[01:57] <kapputu> Have a question
[01:57] <FlannelKing> kapputu: ask away
[01:57] <juztin> whats the command to reconfigure xserver?
[01:57] <brenner> oblib: i've gotten rid of the brown entirely (even usplahs)
[01:57] <brenner> !tell juztin about xorg
[01:57] <crash_> Pastebinned as "Soundcheckthingy".. :-P
[01:57] <kapputu> FlannelKing: I have two Hard disks. One of them has Ubuntu installed. the other is free. How do I find its name and format it?
[01:58] <nate_> do it in bios auto detect it kapputu
[01:58] <elsamu> hello! someone can help me introduce special characters without using gnome map char?
[01:58] <neo911> waa am running out of diskspace!!!
[01:58] <Josiah2> quick question, what filemanager does ubuntu use?
[01:58] <crash_> crimsun: Pastebinned as "Soundcheckthingy".. :-P
[01:58] <_jason> Josiah2: nautilus
[01:59] <Josiah2> thanks
[01:59] <crimsun> crash_: yes, next time please give me the url, as I'm using a crippled Web browser atm
[01:59] <crash_> crimsun: Oh yeah-- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10677 would be it
[01:59] <FlannelKing> kapputu: don't ask me ;) heh, anyway, it's most likely /dev/hdb if its IDE or... /dev/sdb (not sure about the middle letter) if its a SCSI/ATA whatever else drive
[02:00] <kapputu> ok, easy question guys. How do I find the hard drives connected to my computer?
[02:00] <kapputu> I need the command
[02:00] <crimsun> crash_: in a Terminal, please try: amixer sset 'External Amplifier' off
[02:00] <kapputu> no GUI
[02:00] <ubuntu_tester> is there a program similar to newsleecher on linux?
[02:00] <void^> fdisk -l
[02:01] <Xenguy> kapputu: fdisk -l
[02:01] <ipfw> Umm, I must have missed something -- The freaking kernel source is 40+ MEG now !
[02:01] <ipfw> geez
[02:01] <crimsun> ipfw: no, that's correct.
[02:01] <oblib> thanks brenner
[02:01] <crash_> crimsun: no sound yet... I'm gonna check with my headphones for good measure
[02:01] <keithhhhhhhhh> hey what does control alt backspace do, is it just a quick logout?
[02:02] <_jason> ubuntu_tester: what does newleecher do?
[02:02] <ipfw> crimsun: I remember when I thought it was bloated breaking 10/15Meg
[02:02] <void^> keith: kills the X server
[02:02] <nate_> peace out
[02:02] <ubuntu_tester> it is a quick way of searching through usenet
[02:02] <_jason> keithhhhhhhhh: restarts X, some will say 'zap'
[02:02] <ipfw> crimsun: they had better start packaging some pics & vids with it !
[02:02] <keithhhhhhhhh> yup did that well hehe
[02:02] <elsamu> does anybody know how to introduce special chars w/out using the gnome map char or similar?
[02:02] <elsamu>  i think it's ctrl + shift + charcode
[02:02] <crimsun> ipfw: heh.
[02:02] <keithhhhhhhhh> Im looking for the old kill command
[02:02] <michael117> Is there a way I can make XMMS simulate 5.1 while playing a stereo mp3 file?
[02:02] <elsamu> however i cannot introduce zeros.. so many of the chars dont appear
[02:02] <kapputu> Xenguy: how do I mount the partition?
[02:03] <keithhhhhhhhh> I remember control alt esc use to kill apps
[02:03] <ipfw> crimsun: for 40 meg it should be able to make my coffee, give me sex, and do the dishes --- I mean, thats almost the size of the EMACS OS (text editor) :P
[02:03] <polochica> hello all. does anyone have experience with PDA phones and syncing them with ubuntu? is it easy/hard? are there only certain PDA phones i can get?
[02:04] <void^> ipfw: i'm sure you can install it on your coffee machine, sex dolls and dishwashers :P
[02:04] <FunkTard> ubuntu doesn't have nedit?  I did a search and all I found was KIconEdit
[02:04] <ipfw> void^: To late, I already have them running NetBSD, and the whole base install is about the same size as the Linux Kern ;)
[02:04] <_jason> ipfw: don't worry, all the girls will come running to you when they see that source code
[02:04] <brenner> polochica: it's in universe
[02:05] <brenner> FunkTard: was meant for you
[02:05] <FunkTard> brenner, it asked me if I wanted to add universe when I selected eclipse and I said yes
[02:05] <IdleOne> ubuntu_tester, try apt-cache search usenet | less
[02:05] <ipfw> _jason: want some fun, greap -R <BadWord> /path/to/extracted/kernel/    ... See the thousands of times they have gotten frustrated and called one another, or the code names !!! :)
[02:06] <_jason> ipfw: ha
[02:06] <brenner> ubotu: tell FunkTard about universe
[02:06] <ipfw> _jason: : I did stats on it one time your basic "bad words" are found 200-1000+ times (per word)
[02:06] <ipfw> _jason: I might redo my findings on my blog sometime, when I get really bored
[02:07] <kapputu> how do I mount a partition with rw permissions for all users?
[02:07] <juztin> what is the console command to run ubuntu's default terminal window?
[02:07] <_jason> kapputu: what filesystem?
[02:08] <_jason> juztin: gnome-terminal
[02:08] <juztin> _jason, ty
[02:08] <kapputu> _jason: ext3
[02:08] <ipfw> Umm, a bit late now, but does ubuntu do that unloading of modules not used automatically stuff ?
[02:08] <_jason> kapputu: just change the permissions on the files
[02:08] <kapputu> Is there some documentation on the fstab file?
[02:08] <juztin> _jason, is there another one?  that one didn't work
[02:08] <ipfw> if it does I'm in _big_ trouble
[02:08] <juztin> _jason, i'm actually running xubuntu
[02:08] <Josiah2> did it give me an option to set root password in the install process?
[02:08] <_jason> juztin: that's the default one in gnome.  Maybe you are looking for xterm?
[02:08] <crimsun> ipfw: no
[02:09] <Josiah2> for some reason, it won't let me su
[02:09] <ipfw> juztin: they came out with a xubuntu release now ?
[02:09] <juztin> _jason, that might be it, thx :)
[02:09] <_jason> juztin: don't know what default terminal in xubuntu is
[02:09] <kapputu> _jason: also is teh fstab file tab-seperated or space seperated?
[02:09] <juztin> ipfw, not a release, just an install method
[02:09] <crimsun> _jason: xfce4-terminal
[02:09] <crimsun> or perhaps to juztin
[02:09] <_jason> juztin: ^
[02:09] <brenner> kapputu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions (look at the fstab edititing stuff near the middle)
[02:09] <Enthusiast78> any idea how do I change the system language?
[02:10] <ipfw> juztin: yeah, I typed apt-get install xubuntu-dekstop the other day, its still linked heavy to *cough* gnome, so I turned it down for "xfce4"
[02:10] <_jason> ubotu: tell Josiah2 about rootsudo
[02:10] <brenner> ubotu: tell Josiah2 about root
[02:10] <soop> Josiah2: no it didnt
[02:10] <soop> Josiah2: sudo passwd root
[02:10] <Josiah2> thanks
[02:10] <soop> but you dont need it
[02:10] <ipfw> juztin: I may end up needing the gnome libs, but I don't want my xfce4 bloated by being linked to them as deps
[02:10] <juztin> ipfw, i did a fresh server install, then did that
[02:10] <soop> just sudo everything
[02:10] <juztin> ipfw, it's a lot liter that way
[02:10] <juztin> ipfw, no kde or gnome stuff
[02:11] <ipfw> juztin: it sucked down gnomelibs on your box though, if you just did: apt get install xfce4, it would have only sucked down gtk/glib/X
[02:11] <Josiah2> appreciate it guys
[02:11] <juztin> ipfw, ah
[02:11] <_jason> kapputu: probably either one,I just copy the above lines and edit
[02:12] <ipfw> of course, you wouldn't get that pretty gnome-desktop background manager (costing you speed/processing and about 40Meg HD space)  ... :)
[02:12] <ic56>  lksd
[02:13] <ladofnod> is anyone aware of how to slim down java for low end machines? running azureus brings everything down to a standstill
[02:13] <Eleaf> hi
[02:14] <IdleOne> hello Eleaf
[02:14] <ipfw> gnome is getting pretty bloated imho, if something requires gnome -- then gnome requires _everything_ known to man :)
[02:14] <Eleaf> ;) mm
[02:14] <crimsun> crash_: any luck?
[02:15] <kapputu> brenner: It doesn't say anything about ext3 partitions
[02:15] <crash_> crimsun: Not... really... :-S
[02:15] <crimsun> crash_: ok, unmute that setting again
[02:15] <crimsun> crash_: then try combinations of toggling 'Headphone Jack Sense' and 'Line Jack Sense'
[02:15] <crash_> Yeah, did it.
[02:16] <natalie> hello all, I am hoping that someone might be able to point me in the direction of the forum message that might be able to help me fix my problem.  Whenever I start up 5.10 I cannot start it up in normal mode.  Furthermore, I must log in as root during recovery mode in order to avoid my system from freezing completely.  Any suggestions or pointing in the right direction would be helpful, thank you.
[02:18] <crash_> crimsun: I'm gonna load up DSLinux and see if my problem is in that or not.  If there's a problem there, it might be hardware mistake.. recent fiddling with tower and mobo and all...
[02:18] <kapputu> _jason: how do I mount ext3 partitions?
[02:18] <shiv> how do I open an encrypted  rar file in linux? I have the password but it never asks?
[02:19] <_jason> kapputu: mount -t ext3 /dev/<device> /mount/point
[02:19] <crimsun> crash_: no, it should be (as in 99% confidence level) a mixer setting
[02:19] <imperfect-> OKay. I'm about to scream. I have built the nvidia drivers from source yet, no matter what I do, it is telling me ther eis an API mismatch.
[02:19] <_jason> ls
[02:19] <kapputu> _jason: permissions? Only root can write to that folder
[02:19] <_jason> kapputu: chmod or chown the files
[02:20] <imperfect-> I have run updatedb and there is only _ONE_ nvidia.ko
[02:20] <imperfect-> this makes no sense and i'm ready to screen.
[02:20] <crimsun> imperfect-: uname -r
[02:20] <shiv> how do I open an encrypted  rar file in linux? I have the password but it never asks?
[02:20] <_jason> shiv: unrar x file.rar
[02:20] <crimsun> shiv: make sure unrar-nonfree is installed
[02:20] <imperfect-> 2.6.13-15.0
[02:20] <imperfect-> 2.6.13-15.9
[02:20] <imperfect-> er 8
[02:20] <imperfect-> hehe
[02:20] <imperfect-> wrong box
[02:20] <imperfect-> sorry
[02:20] <imperfect-> 2.6.12-10-i386
[02:21] <kapputu> _jason: what if I want to copy something to a folder there?
[02:21] <imperfect-> crimsun : I checked nvidia.ko and it's FRESH built within the last 5 minutes yet when ir eboot it says API mismatch
[02:21] <crimsun> imperfect-: dpkg -l linux-headers-$(uname -r)|grep ^ii
[02:21] <_jason> kapputu: it's the same as a directory on your hard disk.  Just make sure you have permission for the folder
[02:22] <crash_> I enabled everything in the mixer in some maddened attempt at hearing stuff.. nothing.  Gonna just run a little check if it's hardware anyways.  *sigh*
[02:22] <Devil^Chat> help me about apache2 pls
[02:22] <imperfect-> crimsun : It matches.
[02:22] <crimsun> crash_: you can't unmute _everything_; you can only unmute select elements
[02:22] <imperfect-> crimsun : It's telling me that I'm using a nvidia kernel driver that is 1.7xx and that my compiled version is the newest 1.8xx
[02:23] <Devil^Chat> i just resintall apache but now ca`t run
[02:23] <crimsun> imperfect-: are you doing this with gdm stopped (well, X Window System stopped)?
[02:23] <crash_> Well, within reason.  :-P
[02:23] <imperfect-> crimsun : Am I doing what?
[02:24] <crimsun> imperfect-: did you stop gdm before compiling the driver?

[02:25] <shiv> jason: that was awesome. How come it shows me the password of the file as well in terminal?
[02:25] <FunkTard> W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_universe_binary-i386_Packages)
[02:25] <FunkTard> what is that about...I was following the guide
[02:25] <_jason> FunkTard: your /etc/apt/sources.list has a duplicate entry probably
[02:26] <crimsun> imperfect-: hmm, do you have linux-restricted-modules\* installed?
[02:26] <crimsun> imperfect-: that is, linux-restricted-modules-common and linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[02:26] <_jason> shiv: what do you mean?
[02:26] <imperfect-> crimsun : Nope
[02:26] <FunkTard> _jason, I haven't touched that file...only used the gui
[02:26] <Mobus> I got the Doomlegacy and the Doomlegacy WAD files, but when I type "doomlegacy" into the terminal, it doesn't work.  What's the problem?
[02:26] <crimsun> imperfect-: what about nvidia-glx\* ?
[02:26] <ddg_bluesky> hi all
[02:26] <_jason> FunkTard: can you put the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list on pastebin?
[02:26] <imperfect-> crimsun : I know I don't because I did that on an installation two days ago and thought that was what was causing this problem
[02:26] <imperfect-> crimsun : so when I started over I made sure
[02:27] <Devil^Chat> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10678 <<<< can same one help me ?????
[02:27] <ddg_bluesky> I was able to get the apache web server working
[02:27] <ddg_bluesky> and php

[02:27] <imperfect-> crimsun : I've run updatedb man there's only one nvidia.ko on the system.
[02:27] <_jason> ubotu: tell FunkTard about pastebin
[02:27] <shiv> jason: it showed me the password of the locked file in terminal as well with that command
[02:27] <crimsun> imperfect-: and my question regarding nvidia-glx\* ?
[02:27] <imperfect-> no,its' not installed.
[02:27] <ddg_bluesky> How can I test to see if mysql is installed
[02:28] <imperfect-> crimsun : have I explained that I get get it to work until I reboot?
[02:28] <seraphim> type mysql in a terminal
[02:28] <imperfect-> I have no flippin clue where it's getting this nvidia.ko from
[02:28] <crimsun> imperfect-: ok, please replicate the error for me from a fresh boot. Then I'll need pastebinned the output from dmesg and /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[02:29] <no0tic> hi, it's possible to pass boot options to boot scripts?
[02:30] <no0tic> or, it's possible for boot scripts to read specific boot options?
[02:30] <_jason> FunkTard: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list     and then delete line 39, ctrl-o to save, ctrl-x to exit, then issue the command: sudo apt-get update
[02:30] <easy> help me
[02:30] <_jason> !helpme
[02:30] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[02:30] <IdleOne> easy,  ask a question
[02:30] <keithhhhhhhhh> does anyone know where programs go when installed thru WINE
[02:30] <keithhhhhhhhh> ?
[02:30] <Mobus> apt-get*
[02:30] <seraphim> ~/.wine
[02:31] <keithhhhhhhhh> really hehe
[02:31] <Mobus> I got the Doomlegacy and the Doomlegacy WAD files, but when I type "doomlegacy" into the terminal, it doesn't work.  What's the problem?
[02:31] <chuckyp> Xenguy, well neither .xinitrc or .xsession or ~/Desktop/Autostart worked  I had to add it via the autostart applications menu item.  I've done regex searches for it in my home directory and can't find where it added the comand.  But it works.
[02:31] <kapputu> how do I run a media server?
[02:31] <chuckyp> Mobus, what do you mean doens't work?  do you get a message?
[02:31] <imperfect-> crimsun : What is NVRM?
[02:32] <Mobus> Chuckyp: File not Found
[02:32] <JoeMorris> hmmm
[02:32] <Mobus> NVRAM is your hard drive
[02:32] <imperfect-> Mobus: No, I mean NVRM in a dmesg output
[02:32] <kapputu> how do I run a media server?
[02:32] <seraphim> kapputu: what kind of media?
[02:32] <imperfect-> Mobus: whatever that is, is what is loading the wrong version of the module from I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE
[02:32] <Mobus> probably the hard drive space being used by dmesg
[02:32] <cafuego> nvram is your hard drive?
[02:33] <imperfect-> there is no A
[02:33] <imperfect-> NVRM:
[02:33] <jbroome> !tell C-O-L-T-AWAY about away
[02:33] <Mobus> NVRM is short for NVRAM
[02:33] <Devil^Chat> /usr/sbin/apache2ctl start
[02:33] <Devil^Chat> apache2: could not open document config file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[02:33] <crimsun> imperfect-: modinfo nvidia -> pastebin
[02:33] <chuckyp> mobus well thats not the name of the binarary then
[02:33] <Devil^Chat> stil can`t run
[02:33] <kapputu> seraphim: audio for now
[02:33] <Mobus> do you know what it is though
[02:33] <Mobus> it came right off of apt
[02:34] <seraphim> kapputu:  you could set up a shoutcast radio-stream for example
[02:34] <cafuego> Mobus: Well, on the planet I live on, NVRM is a prefix the nvidia module spits out when it loads.
[02:34] <Devil^Chat> missing apache.conf
[02:34] <imperfect-> crimsun : I can't pastebin i dont have a mouse or anything
[02:34] <Mobus> well, I use ATI so I don't fiddle with that stuff, so you're probably right about that
[02:34] <themachine> what can I use to find all local computers on the network and list their addresses?
[02:34] <crimsun> imperfect-: download the script that is provided on that Web site
[02:34] <kapputu> seraphim: how would I do that?
[02:35] <seraphim> themachine: arp -a on the router
[02:35] <themachine> thanks
[02:35] <cafuego> ping -b subnet/mask
[02:35] <imperfect-> I dont even have lynx at this point
[02:35] <imperfect-> hold on
[02:35] <cafuego> THEN arp -a :-)
[02:35] <criminy> I'm using dapper and I see "Offical package for Debian/<blank>" apt source lines. For dapper do I use unstable or testing?
[02:35] <seraphim> themachine: or "nmap 192.168.0.1-255"
[02:35] <crimsun> criminy: neither. Mixing repos is a bad idea.
[02:35] <keithhhhhhhhh> is there anyway to remove all files from a directory and subdirectories?
[02:35] <Consty> Is there a newer release codec pack for debian/ubuntu than listed in the restricted file formats section?  Because the xvid/divx codec I believe is borked.  I'm getting some weird sound problems randomly while seeking through video.. but no problems with ogm.
[02:35] <criminy> eh
[02:36] <criminy> I just want to get gaim-cvs
[02:36] <Consty> A slight sqeal before the audio begins playing again
[02:36] <seraphim> kapputu: go to shoutcast.com -> downloads
[02:36] <crimsun> criminy: then apt-get build-dep, download the source, and build it yourself.
[02:36] <_jason> Consty: you can download it directly form mplayer's site if you think that's a problem.  For me, they work fine
[02:36] <JonathanKent> what is vpn ?
[02:36] <JonathanKent> !vpn
[02:36] <ubotu> vpn is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[02:36] <_jason> keithhhhhhhhh: rm -r
[02:36] <Consty> _jason: aren't they in rpm on their website?  what app do you use to covert rpm to deb then?
[02:36] <Mobus> VPN is a Virtual Private Network
[02:37] <keithhhhhhhhh> thanks Jason
[02:37] <_jason> Consty: no, they are just a tar.gz I believe
[02:37] <Mobus> its like Remote Desktop, but better and more secure
[02:37] <_jason> Consty: I'm wrong.  It's actually a tar.bz2 :)
[02:38] <hippie23> any1 know how to turn the 3Dsound effect off on a iMac g3? running ubuntu breezy
[02:38] <keithhhhhhhhh> that was really easy :D
[02:38] <Devil^Chat> Mobus, i have missing apache2.conf what must i do now ?
[02:38] <Devil^Chat> apache2: could not open document config file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[02:38] <Jaga> vpn is like remote desktop??! ahem.........
[02:38] <Mobus> sudo apt-get -f install
[02:38] <Mobus> and only that
[02:38] <Mobus> if not I don't really know
[02:39] <Mobus> I haven't done much with web servers
[02:39] <imperfect-> Is there anyway to see where the hell a module is being loaded from?
[02:39] <Devil^Chat> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded
[02:39] <Devil^Chat> just that
[02:39] <Devil^Chat> stil not working
[02:39] <imperfect-> Is it possible to have something compiled into the kernel but still be able to remove it?
[02:39] <crimsun> imperfect-: have you pasted what I asked for?
[02:39] <crimsun> it's really difficult to troubleshoot blind
[02:40] <seraphim> sudo apt-get install --reinstall apache2 - and then good luck :/
[02:40] <IdleOne> Devil^Chat, sudo apt-get upgrade
[02:40] <akcom> Is there a utility that will allow me to convert .dmg files to .iso's?
[02:40] <xim> hi! is there a way to downgrade a package?
[02:40] <imperfect-> crimsun: I dont have a web browser at the moment.
[02:40] <akcom> Is there a utility that will allow me to convert .dmg files to .iso's?
[02:40] <crimsun> imperfect-: can you install w3m or links?
[02:41] <imperfect-> crimsun: I am seeing a loaded kernel module that is SMALLER than the only nvidia.ko I can find on my box. can you please tell me where the hell it's coming from?
[02:41] <crimsun> imperfect-: I really, really, really need that modinfo output.
[02:41] <seraphim> xim: no. there are only the newest packages available in the sources
[02:41] <imperfect-> crimsun : there's no version info...
[02:41] <yamathan> Hmm ...
[02:41] <crimsun> imperfect-: doesn't matter, there's a path.
[02:41] <crimsun> I'm much more interested in the path.
[02:41] <yamathan> Can anyone give me some advice on getting ports open for BitTorrent?
[02:41] <seraphim> xim: you could remove it and search an old .deb or sources on the web
[02:42] <yamathan> My router is NOT a happy camper right now.
[02:42] <xim> how can i remove the most recent version without removing all packages that depend on it?
[02:42] <seraphim> yamathan: shorewall
[02:42] <imperfect-> crimsun: It's in volatile.
[02:42] <yamathan> seraphim, is that packaged anywhere?
[02:42] <crimsun> imperfect-: tmpfs, but what's the precise path?
[02:42] <imperfect-> crimsun: Where do the mods in volatile come from?!
[02:42] <Consty> _jason: well the codec pack looks like it's from a long time ago so I dunno.. are you sure when you're playing xvid/divx and you're skipping around you never hear a very slight squealch?
[02:43] <imperfect-> crimsun: lib/modules/uname-r/volatile/nvidia.ko
[02:43] <seraphim> yamathan: yes, sure. just apt-get install it
[02:43] <FunkTard> does ubuntu really not come default with a c compiler?
[02:43] <_jason> Consty: I don't do that much, let me try
[02:43] <IdleOne> akcom, google is your friend :) www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20040121135301830
[02:43] <themachine> how would I mount an nfs thats on my own home network? I have everything through a router.
[02:43] <akcom> IdleOne, I tried google
[02:43] <seraphim> yamathan: for configuration, there is a great documentation at http://www.shorewall.net/
[02:43] <akcom> and it just  brought up a perl script which did not work
[02:43] <chuckyp> themachine, what type of share is it?
[02:43] <azadder> is wine notorious for... not working?
[02:43] <akcom> adna bunch of windows solutions that mention linux arbitrarily
[02:43] <themachine> nfs
[02:43] <akcom> hdiutils is darwin only
[02:44] <chuckyp> !nfs
[02:44] <ubotu> methinks nfs is see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[02:44] <yamathan> seraphim, thanks.
[02:44] <chuckyp> akcom, what are you trying to do?
[02:44] <crimsun> imperfect-: they're mounted as tmpfs from /lib/linux-restricted-modules/$(uname -r)
[02:44] <yamathan> Thanks a lot, actually.
[02:44] <akcom> chuckyp, convert a DMG file to an iso
[02:44] <imperfect-> crimsun: that dir does not exist.
[02:44] <yamathan> With BitTorrent the world could easily become my oyster.
[02:45] <crimsun> imperfect-: right, it shouldn't if you don't have l-r-m installed
[02:45] <bimberi> azadder: yes, unfortunately
[02:45] <crimsun> imperfect-: did you generate an initramfs with it built-in?
[02:45] <azadder> sucks...
[02:45] <chuckyp> What is a dmg?
[02:45] <yamathan> seraphim, it's claiming -- lemme quote ...
[02:45] <_jason> Consty: nope
[02:45] <bimberi> FunkTard: yes, it's on the CD but not installed by default.  Remeber it's "linux for human beings" :P
[02:45] <bimberi> *Remember
[02:46] <yamathan> seraphim, "the firewall won't be started/stopped unless it is configured".
[02:46] <Rouge8> chuckyp: I think that'd the OS X binary format
[02:46] <chuckyp> akcom, did you try that dmg to iso perl script?
[02:46] <Rouge8> I could be wrong though
[02:46] <yamathan> I don't even HAVE a firewall under Linux and the router doesn't have one hardwired last I checked.
[02:46] <seraphim> shorewall is the firewall
[02:46] <yamathan> Then ...
[02:46] <_jason> Consty: what player are you using?
[02:46] <yamathan> What's the problem?
[02:46] <chuckyp> akcom, correction dmg2iso
[02:46] <cafuego> You don't need a firewall unless you installed services.
[02:47] <seraphim> you have to configure it
[02:47] <akcom> chuckyp, yes, I have
[02:47] <chuckyp> !firewall
[02:47] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
[02:47] <akcom> and it produced an invalid iso
[02:47] <cafuego> and even then, only if you want to restrict access to those services
[02:47] <imperfect-> crimsun: I just got it to load a desktop
[02:47] <imperfect-> crimsun: I can at least use pastebin now
[02:47] <imperfect-> crimsun: brb
[02:47] <chuckyp> akcom, thats seems to be what everyone is using.
[02:47] <akcom> so i noticed
[02:47] <yamathan> How odd.
[02:47] <yamathan> I guess I did install "services" ad verbatim.
[02:48] <imperfect-> crimsun: i was going to ask you about initrd
[02:48] <hippie23> test
[02:48] <Consty> _jason: it's player independent.. happens with xine/mplayer (those are the only two I tested)
[02:48] <imperfect-> crimsun: I'm using a stock kernel.... is that even possible?
[02:48] <crimsun> imperfect-: sure
[02:48] <imperfect-> crimsun: that woudl explain a lot.. brbr I'm going to reboot
[02:48] <crimsun> well, "stock" meaning Ubuntu-provided or vanilla upstream?
[02:49] <imperfect-> ubuntu-provided
[02:49] <crimsun> sure. Did you modify /etc/mkinitramfs/modules, /etc/modules, etc.?
[02:49] <seraphim> yamathan: your router got 2 interfaces i presume? then take this guide: http://www.shorewall.net/two-interface.htm
[02:50] <_jason> Consty: maybe #mplayer chat has heard of the problem
[02:50] <yamathan> seraphim, to be honest I didn't know I had ONE interface until now.
[02:50] <FunkTard> bimberi, I saw it under Development, but it asked for the CD which I dont have....I'm on vmware.
[02:50] <seraphim> yamathan: how are you connected to the net then? ;)
[02:50] <yamathan> seraphim, well-met.  X D
[02:51] <seraphim> yamathan: i was meant ethernet-cards
[02:51] <imperfect-> damnit
[02:51] <seraphim> -was
[02:51] <imperfect-> my term is hosed
[02:51] <imperfect-> brb
[02:51] <bimberi> FunkTard: it's also in the internet repositories.  Best to install the 'build-essential' metapackage btw.
[02:51] <Eleaf> yum yum
[02:52] <yamathan> seraphim, you mean more than one computer attached to the router?
[02:52] <seraphim> no.
[02:52] <FunkTard> bimberi, should I be doing this through "add applications" or through "Synaptic Package Manager" ?
[02:52] <easy>   I can get root
[02:52] <ariel> hey
[02:52] <seraphim> one card for the net, one for the hub/switch/computer?
[02:52] <ariel> is there a webpage with the description of the packages and their latest changelog?
[02:52] <seraphim> inside the router
[02:53] <abhorsen> hey guys, I was trying to install a TV Tuner card I just got using wine, Im getting an error message, setup_extension nested exeption, , , , what does this mean (This is not the whole error message)
[02:53] <IdleOne> ariel, packages.ubuntu.com
[02:53] <ariel> IdleOne, thx
[02:53] <bimberi> FunkTard: synaptic, you'll need to disable the CD repository and add the "main" internet repository (if not already enabled), then it'll stop asking you for the CD
[02:53] <bimberi> FunkTard: Settings -> Repositories
[02:54] <seraphim> yamathan: if you give me your email-address i can send you my config-files for shorewall, so you will see how it is working
[02:54] <easy> I can get root
[02:54] <yamathan> seraphim, thanks.  It's merthedil@gmail.com
[02:55] <`Boo`> hey everyone, i think i fucked up X... when i boot up, some screen comes up and says x cannot load, and it goes to a terminal.

[02:55] <`Boo`> I was editing my xorg.cfg file for my keyboard before hthis happened
[02:55] <_jason> j1p: try pressing both at the same time to paste
[02:56] <j1p> how about copy?
[02:56] <will_> press both left and right mouse buttons to simulate a middle button click
[02:56] <will_> lol

[02:56] <_jason> j1p: just highlight the text
[02:56] <`Boo`> is there any way to use my backup xorg? how would i get xorg.conf.backup to xorg.conf
[02:56] <yamathan> Uh ...
[02:56] <themachine> I've configured nfs I'm not sure if I have the right syntax since I'm trying to mount through a router. I tried ls /net/192.168.1.1/home/glitch
[02:56] <themachine>  but it just hangs there
[02:56] <yamathan> seraphim:  Isn't shorewall.conf supposed to exist?
[02:56] <j1p> thanks a bunch jason_
[02:57] <seraphim> yes it is...
[02:57] <`Boo`> _jason, whats the command to copy a file and overwrite?

[02:59] <`Boo`> i dont have chinese installed :(
[02:59] <ubuntu> What package is responsible for changing the console font
[02:59] <yamathan> seraphim, I'm getting some issues with /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf
[02:59] <ecarroll2> I've used that package before but forgot it name
[02:59] <yamathan> seraphim, "does not exist!" in particular.
[03:00] <seraphim> yamathan: the package in the package includes the original files
[03:00] <easy>  root
[03:00] <`Boo`> whats the command for rename
[03:00] <`Boo`> with overwrite
[03:00] <ghost> Hi does anyone know how to make use of the windows start key in ubuntu?
[03:00] <seraphim> yamathan: is there anything in /etc/shorewall ?
[03:00] <ic56> ecaroll2: svgatextmode ?
[03:01] <will_> mv oldfilename newfilename
[03:01] <will_> is used instead of a rename command
[03:01] <adriano> how would I change the background color before the desktop wallpaper loads?
[03:01] <IcemanV9> type "mv source.list source.list.bak" <-- example
[03:01] <adriano> i am using this white theme and the ubuntu brown classes a bit

[03:03] <themachine> I'm trying to mount my nfs, which is on a home network. I'm not sure what the DNS in '  /net/etc.foo.net/home/user ' should look like
[03:04] <adriano> mobi, yep, found it, thanks
[03:04] <`Boo`> sorry to bug anyone, is there any way to reinstall(fix) X with the install CD?
[03:04] <HarryWong> g'day all

[03:04] <`Boo`> i can
[03:05] <`Boo`> when i boot, ubuntu loads, right before x loads, there is some blue screen with an error message, saying x cannot load
[03:05] <vars> the do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   and then you can reconfigure x
[03:05] <seraphim> yamathan: i hope the two-interfaces configuration is the right one for you. if you have any problems try the shorewall.net page . i have to leave now... if you're stuck you can email me..
[03:06] <yamathan> seraphim, thanks.
[03:06] <easy> 
[03:06] <HarryWong> Has anyone some advice on how to get sblive51 digital output to work? Have make work with suse, deb, and slack but.... no luck here yet
[03:06] <yamathan> seraphim, I'm LOOKING AT IT right now.  Why can't shorewall SEE it?  : P
[03:06] <crimsun> HarryWong: essentially the same way you'd do it in Debian.
[03:07] <bimberi> easy: you're welcome :)
[03:07] <seraphim> don't start shorewall before you have configured it!
[03:07] <seraphim> :D
[03:07] <yamathan> I DID.  That's the painy part.  X D
[03:07] <HarryWong> lol yamathan... OK, I lied on that one... buddy set it up for me.
[03:08] <themachine> for the syntax /net/<host>/<share> of autofs what would the host look like for a home network?
[03:10] <themachine> I tried 192.168.1.1 but it just sits there
[03:12] <CrashProne> crimsun: Yeah, mistake on my part.  Had forgotten some jumpers on the mobo in a recent switch.. ^^;;
[03:12] <CrashProne> Totally working now
[03:12] <easy> my root bad
[03:12] <themachine> I'm simply trying to get nfs working on my home network.
[03:15] <easy> 
[03:16] <neurosis_> can anyone give me any idea why when i try to ftp out of ubuntu it stalls when trying to open a data port with both my router not blocking and my firewall turned completely off?
[03:16] <michael117> 
[03:17] <andres-SEAQ> hi, someone mentioned earlier a metapackage for all the building apps, anyidea which one is it?
[03:17] <overrider> easy, did you write chinese purposely or did it just come out on my terminal that way?
[03:17] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_  did you tell it to use passive mode?  are you using gftp?
[03:17] <neurosis_> its the ftp client
[03:17] <neurosis_> ftp server on another puter
[03:17] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ on the same local network?
[03:17] <neurosis_> the client wont open the data connection
[03:18] <neurosis_> no
[03:18] <FliesLikeABrick> ok neurosis_ so please answer my first questions
[03:18] <neurosis_> i cant get a bot to connect out either
[03:18] <neurosis_> its not on the same local network
[03:18] <neurosis_> oh
[03:18] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ the questions before that:  are you using passive mode in ftp?
[03:18] <neurosis_> i dont think so
[03:18] <FliesLikeABrick> thats your problem
[03:18] <neurosis_> i just typed ftp ip port
[03:19] <useruser> does ubuntu run on macbooks yet?
[03:19] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ use google and read up on how ftp active and passive modes work
[03:19] <neurosis_> ok
[03:19] <ghost> okay now how do you launch a terminal from the keyboard? Thanks very much for the metacity info link
[03:19] <neurosis_> FliesLikeABrick: that doesnt explain why my bot wont connect out either
[03:19] <FliesLikeABrick> ghost you mean while in a GUI environment?  ctrl+alt+f2
[03:19] <ghost> yes
[03:19] <neurosis_> it resolves the addy
[03:19] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ yes it does, because if you weren't using passive mode with the bot it would have the same problem
[03:20] <phrowzen> hey
[03:20] <neurosis_> doh!
[03:20] <ghost> woooo
[03:20] <ghost> that was scary
[03:20] <phrowzen> does anyone know why sometimes scrolling in firefox is often quite slow?
[03:20] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_  what did you code the bot in?
[03:20] <ghost> yes but no
[03:20] <useruser> ghost: or alt-f2 xterm <enter>
[03:20] <neurosis_> FliesLikeABrick: how do you mean?
[03:20] <ghost> i want a nice gui terminal like i get when i click on the wee screen
[03:20] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ what is the bot?
[03:20] <neurosis_> eggdrop
[03:20] <useruser> ghost: alt-f2 gnome-terminal <enter>, i think
[03:20] <bimberi> ghost: alt-f2, gnome-terminal
[03:21] <_jason> ghost: alt+f2 and type 'gnome-terminal', you can also setup a keyboard shortcut in system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts
[03:21] <neurosis_> it resolves the address of the server its trying to connect to
[03:21] <neurosis_> then tells me its not a valid server
[03:21] <gamma> does rhythmbox have the ability to add/remove files from ipods?
[03:21] <neurosis_> but im connecting to the same server from the same machine in xchat
[03:21] <useruser> phrowzen: it's a slow browser, basically
[03:21] <FliesLikeABrick> oh neurosis_ have you tried it with more than one server?
[03:21] <neurosis_> yea
[03:21] <neurosis_> several
[03:21] <FliesLikeABrick> phrowzen  what are the specs of the computer you're using it on?
[03:21] <phrowzen> useruser, really? that kind of sucks.
[03:21] <useruser> phrowzen: yeah
[03:21] <phrowzen> FliesLikeABrick, a64 3500+ 2.2GHz @ 2.64GHz/1GB DDR @ 480MHz ;\
[03:22] <FliesLikeABrick> phrowzen  scrolling with the mousewheel, or have you tried it with pgup/pgdn/spacebar as well?
[03:22] <useruser> phrowzen: are there any web pages in particular that makes it go slow?
[03:22] <ghost> excellent that did the job nicely thanks to all for the tips
[03:22] <neurosis_> im even trying to connect to the same server im connected to in irc with xchat
[03:22] <phrowzen> FliesLikeABrick, this is with the mouse wheel, i will try with pgup/dn/.spacebar
[03:22] <phrowzen> useruser, umm sec
[03:22] <greg> hello
[03:23] <NickGarvey> I am unable to get the keyboard to work in firefox flash games, how can I resolve this?
[03:23] <phrowzen> useruser, there are many.. but i just noticed this one in particular -- http://www.blaue0.net/p-tips-on-running-xgl -- towards the top of the page its slow, as soon as it gets into a listing of supported video cards, it scrolls smoothyl
[03:23] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ are you sure there is an ftp server running at the IP that you're trying?
[03:23] <k-0> Hi, has anyone had trouble using enlightenment with nvidia?
[03:23] <easy> 
[03:23] <abhorsen> does anyone know why when running an installation under wine there is something about a rundull file?
[03:23] <phrowzen> err not that one
[03:23] <NickGarvey> I am trying to get a friend to use linux but he plays mainly flash games such as that, there is no chance he will switch otherwise
[03:23] <neurosis_> FliesLikeABrick: yea, im running it myself
[03:23] <phrowzen> useruser, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_XGL -- that one sorry
[03:23] <_jason> NickGarvey: sorry for the stupid suggestion but this is the only thing I have ever needed to do: did you click on the game and then try the keyboard?
[03:23] <neurosis_> i can connect to it with a windows puter sitting right nex to me
[03:23] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ what kind of router are you using?
[03:23] <neurosis_> netgear
[03:23] <neurosis_> setup to run dmz
[03:23] <neurosis_> at the moment
[03:24] <FliesLikeABrick> that wouldn't affect outgoing connections neuro_
[03:24] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_  ^
[03:24] <abhorsen> someone?
[03:24] <FliesLikeABrick> NickGarvey flash games are fine in linux
[03:24] <neurosis_> i realize that
[03:24] <neurosis_> but i tuned my firewall on and nmaped it with the router in dmz mode and my firewall went nuts
[03:24] <k-0> Has anyone had trouble using enlightenment with nvidia?
[03:24] <neurosis_> so i know its getting incoming
[03:24] <neurosis_> then i turned my firewall off
[03:25] <neurosis_> and tried to connect the ftp server out and still no luck
[03:25] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ have you tried a normal ftp client from your desktop?
[03:25] <abhorsen> can someone help me?
[03:25] <greg> Hi. I'm installing kubuntu. Is this right channel for guidance?
[03:25] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell abhorsen  about ask
[03:25] <themachine> for the syntax /net/<host>/<share> of autofs what would the host look like for a home network with a router?
[03:25] <neurosis_> FliesLikeABrick: no, im new to gnome and dont know if there is a ftp client gui
[03:25] <_jason> greg: you can try here, #kubuntu is geared more towards kubuntu though
[03:25] <ronburgundy07> its called gftp
[03:25] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ do you have another computer you can try it on?
[03:25] <abhorsen> I did ask
[03:25] <abhorsen> does anyone know why when running an installation under wine there is something about a rundull file?
[03:26] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell abhorsen about repeat
[03:26] <neurosis_> flies: yes, sitting right here
[03:26] <FliesLikeABrick> sorry abhorsen  i meant that one
[03:26] <neurosis_> it connects
[03:26] <FliesLikeABrick> ok neurosis_
[03:26] <abhorsen> ok, sorry then
[03:26] <greg> Got a new HDD;  want / to be like 50 GB and /home to be 100 GB partition.  What does "automatically partition free space" do?
[03:27] <phrowzen> useruser, FliesLikeABrick -- i notice too, if i scroll for a fairly long time, my cpu usage will rocket to nearly 100%
[03:27] <Lil-Abner> Hi. Can anyone help a newbie get unconfused?
[03:27] <JoeMorris> ubuntu has potential but i still dont like it :(
[03:27] <useruser> phrowzen: yeah, that page scrolls slowly for me too (although I'm using a much slower machine)
[03:27] <_jason> Lil-Abner: just ask, if someone knows they will try :)
[03:28] <JoeMorris> maybe in 2008 ubuntu will be primetime
[03:28] <FliesLikeABrick> phrowzen have you installed the drivers for your video card?  it sounds like you need to get that set up so your GPU takes some of the load from rendering visual things such as windows and changes in them

[03:28] <useruser> phrowzen: it's probably something to do with the static content on the right
[03:28] <phrowzen> FliesLikeABrick, im using the nvidia-glx..
[03:28] <useruser> phrowzen: it'll force the browser to render the entire screen on each scroll, i think
[03:28] <gilberto> hello
[03:28] <FliesLikeABrick> phrowzen  are you sure you're actually using it, rather than just having it installed and not using it?
[03:28] <phrowzen> FliesLikeABrick, yes.. driver is set to "nvidia" in xorg.conf, and i used to run xgl, which required it
[03:28] <FliesLikeABrick> alright phrowzen  just making sure
[03:29] <phrowzen> useruser, hmm, i hate to bring up the comparison, but firefox never 'stuttered' like that under windows, do you believe it could possibly be a configuration problem? or just a limitation on the linux port?
[03:29] <phrowzen> FliesLikeABrick, thats ok, thanks for the ideas though :)
[03:29] <useruser> phrowzen: the linux version of firefox runs slower than the windows version
[03:29] <phrowzen> useruser, ahh ok.
[03:29] <FliesLikeABrick> phrowzen  download firefox 1.5.0.1 from the mozilla site, it runs much better than the version in apt
[03:30] <phrowzen> great i will try that, thanks again
[03:30] <Lil-Abner> OK, jason, ty. I've downloaded several items, but can't get them to install. I don't know what to use.
[03:30] <_jason> Lil-Abner: downloaded what?
[03:31] <dmb> hey
[03:31] <dmb> any of you know any zip repair program for linux?
[03:31] <neurosis_> hrm, i have another router here, im going to try that one and see what happens
[03:31] <Lil-Abner> Jason, I've downloaded the newest version for Thunderbird and Firefox, but they don't install.
[03:31] <greg> Partitioning: primary vs. logical.  Which parts should be "merely" logical?
[03:32] <FliesLikeABrick> greg  if you don't plan on having more than 4 partitions on a drive, you can use primary for everything
[03:32] <_jason> ubotu: tell Lil-Abner about firefox1.5
[03:32] <htrp> ok, let's say i have bunch .docs in a dir right, how do you delete all of them by filtering the file extenstion .doc ?
[03:32] <htrp> rm -rf *.doc ?
[03:32] <FliesLikeABrick> htrp  just do rm *.doc
[03:32] <_jason> Lil-Abner: follow the guide in your private message from ubotu to get firefox 1.5.  I don't know about the latest thunderbird
[03:32] <FliesLikeABrick> you don't need the -rf
[03:33] <htrp> ic
[03:33] <greg> k thanks
[03:33] <Lil-Abner> ok, thanks jason

[03:54] <NickGarvey> all of the flash games I use are slower than when I use them with IE, how would I speed things up to the normal value?
[03:55] <FliesLikeABrick> thechitowncubs almost every ftp server does that by default
[03:55] <Grark> boo, any other suggestions?
[03:55] <FliesLikeABrick> thechitowncubs apt-get install vsftpd then nano /etc/vsftpd.conf to change the configuration to your taste.  done.

[04:03] <sebix> can we consider rewriting /etc/hosts at wake up from suspend2disk as a bug ?
[04:03] <neurosis_> FliesLikeABrick: this is probably a dumb question, but is there a way to run a bot in passive mode?
[04:03] <FliesLikeABrick> k thechitowncubs  kill those processes and then start vsftpd again
[04:03] <FliesLikeABrick> i'm sorry neurosis_ but I don't know much about bots

[04:04] <neurosis_> i'll do some reading
[04:04] <FliesLikeABrick> yes thechitowncubs  if there is no more vsftpd running
[04:04] <NickGarvey> !bootscreen
[04:04] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[04:04] <neurosis_> FliesLikeABrick: my other pc was using passive mode, thats why it was connecting
[04:04] <neurosis_> this one im assuming is not
[04:04] <Joetheodd> I'm so scared to restart my box right now.
[04:04] <boo> is there a how-to to install wine?
[04:05] <Joetheodd> I just dist-upgraded
[04:05] <neurosis_> is there a way to get command line ftp to run in passive mode?
[04:05] <Joetheodd> !tell boo about wine
[04:05] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell boo about wine
[04:05] <neurosis_> can you tell me about wine too
[04:05] <neurosis_> thats my next project

[04:05] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell neurosis_ about wine
[04:05] <neurosis_> thanks
[04:05] <thechitowncubs> FliesLikeABrick, nothing... meh
[04:05] <boo> "deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt binary/"  deb is not a command
[04:06] <FliesLikeABrick> neurosis_ if you want information like that, you can send ubotu a PM and have him tell you about things by telling him to tell you ;)
[04:06] <FliesLikeABrick> boo you add that line to your /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:06] <neurosis_> thanks
[04:06] <FliesLikeABrick> boo it is not a command
[04:06] <neurosis_> files: is there a way to ftp passive using command line ftp?
[04:07] <FliesLikeABrick> yes neurosis_.  once you're in ftp, just type "passive" to toggle passive mode
[04:07] <neurosis_> thanks
[04:07] <neurosis_> your finger must get tired
[04:07] <neurosis_> i'll bet you type 1000 words a minute
[04:07] <neurosis_> haha
[04:07] <FliesLikeABrick> 107
[04:07] <boo> Ok, i did that....now what?
[04:07] <neurosis_> your answering like 5 peoples questions at once
[04:07] <FliesLikeABrick> boo now apt-get update and apt-get install wine
[04:08] <boo> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[04:08] <FliesLikeABrick> you must use sudpo
[04:08] <boo> on apt-get update
[04:08] <FliesLikeABrick> sudo
[04:08] <boo> i need to do sudo
[04:08] <boo> yeah
[04:08] <FliesLikeABrick> you needed to do sudo to add that line to /etc/apt/sources.list too
[04:08] <FliesLikeABrick> make sure that line is in there
[04:08] <juztin> what command would i use to mount hdb as /storage/ ?
[04:08] <FliesLikeABrick> juztin mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb /storage
[04:08] <thechitowncubs> FliesLikeABrick, my login isn't even accepted, my password either
[04:09] <FliesLikeABrick> but 1) that is for ext3 filesystem, 2) that assumes you're mounting hdb not hdb1
[04:09] <hayden> when i try to burn a program it says it completes successfully, but no data is written onto the disc, any ideas?
[04:09] <FliesLikeABrick> thechitowncubs I'm not sure what to say, you either didn't entirely restart vsftpd or you messed something up in the configuration
[04:09] <FliesLikeABrick> hayden make sure the program is actually writing, not "testing"
[04:09] <hayden> FliesLikeABrick, its not
[04:09] <boo> K, downloading now. How do i find out the free space I have on my linux partition..or any that matter, basically, whats the equivilant of "My computer"
[04:10] <FliesLikeABrick> df -h boo
[04:10] <juztin> FliesLikeABrick, it says mount point /storage does not exist
[04:10] <FliesLikeABrick> juztin  you need to make the directory /storage first
[04:10] <squallbsr> how can i fix the /var/lib/dpkg/available file - it seems to be corrupt
[04:11] <juztin> FliesLikeABrick, it says /dev/hdb already mounted or /storage busy
[04:11] <FliesLikeABrick> ok juztin  then they're probably right ;)
[04:11] <juztin> FliesLikeABrick, but hdb isn't listed when i type mount
[04:11] <FliesLikeABrick> are you using /storage for antyhing?  did you cd /storage after making /storage?
[04:11] <FliesLikeABrick> squallbsr  http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=%2Fvar%2Flib%2Fdpkg%2Favailable+corrupt&btnG=Search see if any of those help

[04:13] <boo> FliesLikeABrick, "Err http://wine.sourceforge.net binary/ wine 0.9.10~winehq1-2
[04:13] <boo>   Error reading from server. Remote end closed connection
[04:13] <boo> "
[04:13] <juztin> FliesLikeABrick, how can i make it automatically mount it there at startup?
[04:14] <FliesLikeABrick> boo try again later
[04:14] <boo> server issue?
[04:14] <FliesLikeABrick> juztin  add a line to /etc/fstab  use the lines already in there as an example of what to do
[04:14] <juztin> FliesLikeABrick, k, thx
[04:14] <britches> hello all
[04:14] <FliesLikeABrick> juztin it will probably be something like /dev/hdb1 /storage ext3 defaults 0 0
[04:14] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell britches about ask
[04:15] <britches> ok so tell me about ask
[04:15] <boo> Whats a good, small, MP3 player with playlist support?
[04:15] <FliesLikeABrick> boo #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:15] <FliesLikeABrick> britches  look at the PM from ubotu
[04:15] <juztin> FliesLikeABrick, awesome, thanks :)
[04:16] <intelikey> is that little miss britches ?
[04:16] <Prak> is it possible to install ubuntu off the livecd?
[04:16] <MrPockets> how would one go about upgrading aMule?
[04:16] <bimberi> Prak: only from dapper onwards
[04:16] <FliesLikeABrick> no bimberi  incorrect
[04:16] <Prak> from dapper onwards?
[04:16] <intelikey> Prak yes but you don't want too.
[04:16] <stepore> bimberi, not true
[04:16] <Prak> ok
[04:16] <stenzer> sheesh... why is mysql-server such a pain to install?
[04:17] <FliesLikeABrick> yes Prak.  when you boot the CD, instead of hitting enter type live-expert I believe.  this will give you the option to install from the livecd
[04:17] <Prak> i'll just download the installcd then
[04:17] <FliesLikeABrick> Prak  but you may be better off installing from.. yeah
[04:17] <britches> ok ppl this is my first time here
[04:17] <bimberi> Prak: no look at the responses to my post :-)
[04:17] <britches> tell me wat a pm looks like
[04:17] <Prak> it's ok
[04:17] <stenzer> can anyone point me to easy instructions for getting mysql-5.0 to work on ubuntu breezy from source, rpm, or whatever?
[04:18] <intelikey> another tab in your irc client britches ?
[04:18] <FliesLikeABrick> stenzer look at the documentation on the mysql site.  there are good instructions for installing from source
[04:18] <stepore> britches, what are you asking?
[04:18] <babo> Hi guys, I need a regex to turn this name 'my name' into just 'my' ... what I have so far is /^[^ ] *//s which leaves me with 'name' ... any suggestions ?
[04:18] <moulty> hey
[04:18] <stenzer> FilesLikeABrick: special config options?
[04:18] <markl> is anyone here familiar with mod_env
[04:18] <MrPockets> anyone wanna help me to upgrade aMule?
[04:18] <babo> I still can't get groups to work properly in regex
[04:18] <FliesLikeABrick> stenzer when you do ./configure for the source installation do ./configure --help for a list of options
[04:18] <intelikey> stepore britches asked how to find where someone pm'd him/her
[04:18] <joe_> hey, I just dist-upgraded from warty to breezy and now X refuses to start. What should I do?
[04:18] <FliesLikeABrick> stenzer  #mysql may be better for your questions
[04:19] <stenzer> thanks!
[04:19] <britches> him
[04:19] <stepore> intelikey, ah
[04:19] <boo> hey, i just got wine installed, how can i get a shortcut to it in the app. menu
[04:19] <britches> i think the pm shows as red correct//?
[04:19] <FliesLikeABrick> brith what do you need help with in ubuntu?
[04:19] <intelikey> depends on the irc client britches
[04:19] <joe_> in xchat yes, britches
[04:20] <catalinux> what other virtual machines exist different than vmware?
[04:20] <intelikey> joe_ did you own your home ?
[04:20] <joe_> intelike what's that meak?
[04:20] <joe_> intelikey*
[04:20] <joe_> mean*, lol
[04:20] <FliesLikeABrick> intelikey  that is unlikely to be his problem if he was working fine before the upgrade
[04:20] <britches> i just downloaded repositories for first time with help from a friend....he was on a landline with me long distance
[04:20] <FliesLikeABrick> joe_ does it say anything when X refuses to work?
[04:21] <CrashProne> I think I need Firefox's "libnullplugin.so", it was missing from Dapper Flight 5's install...
[04:21] <joe_> Just that X can't start, would you like to view output, and when I press yes it shows a blank window with OK
[04:21] <CrashProne> Dunno how I'd get it
[04:21] <intelikey> joe_    do    sudo chown ?:? /home/? -R       but put your user name (maybe joe)  every plave there was a question mark.
[04:21] <joe_> ok
[04:21] <FliesLikeABrick> CrashProne  join #ubuntu+1 with dapper problems
[04:22] <CrashProne> Ah
[04:22] <FliesLikeABrick> intelikey  that is not going to be his problem if he was upgrading
[04:22] <FliesLikeABrick> joe_  do not do that
[04:22] <joe_> too late
[04:22] <joe_> lol
[04:22] <joe_> and no that didn't fix it =/
[04:22] <intelikey> FliesLikeABrick like it will hurt what ?
[04:23] <FliesLikeABrick> intelikey  yes it would if other users are on the system, because you just changed ownership of every single file in /home to joe's username
[04:23] <FliesLikeABrick> that is not a good way to fix anythign intelikey
[04:23] <joe_> oh, think i found t:
[04:23] <joe_> Only problem I ran into was I needed to reconfigure X which was solved with a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:23] <FliesLikeABrick> yeah joe_ whats what I was going to suggest ;)
[04:23] <intelikey> FliesLikeABrick but seeing you run things here.  you fix it.    (you need glasses if you believe that would affect other users.)
[04:23] <cafuego> ubotu: begone
[04:24] <FliesLikeABrick> bah i misread
[04:24] <NickGarvey> file?ame would make filename fileName and file1ame right?
[04:24] <cafuego> NickGarvey: Any letter/number, afaik
[04:24] <joe_> flieslikeabrick: /usr/sbin/dpg-reconfigure: xserver-xorg is broken or not fully installed
[04:24] <joe_> Linus must hate me or something.
[04:24] <FliesLikeABrick> yeah NickGarvey  it would match anything in the middle of file and ame
[04:25] <NickGarvey> alright, single character though right?
[04:25] <useruser> NickGarvey: that's right
[04:25] <NickGarvey> thanks a lot
[04:25] <boo> yeah linus is a jerk
[04:25] <NickGarvey> (you guys are a lot nicer than ##linux)
[04:25] <_greg> Hello
[04:25] <useruser> NickGarvey: it's explained under Pattern Matching in the bash manpage
[04:26] <_greg> I keep thiniking install has "locked up".  What is not-unusual time lag for things to be happening?
[04:27] <devin_> Why when i try to upgrade my kernel it wants to remove hotplug?
[04:27] <joe_> FliesLikeABrick: /usr/sbin/dpg-reconfigure: xserver-xorg is broken or not fully installed
[04:27] <Tennessee> Hi all. I just ran into Ubuntu's weird runlevels. Talk about barf! How can I start my system into a shell without having X started?
[04:27] <FliesLikeABrick> sorry joe_  I'm fresh out of ideas
[04:27] <Tennessee> Usually I would just "init 3" to fall out of X
[04:27] <joe_> ouch
[04:28] <britches> do i need to wait to be called on in here or what?
[04:28] <FliesLikeABrick> britches I didn't see you ask a question
[04:29] <joe_> uh, should i type echo "#include <stdio> int main() { cout << "/cry" << endl; return 0; }" > temp.c && gcc temp.c -o temp.o && ./temp.o
[04:29] <stepore> Tennessee, install open bum and stop gdk/kdm from starting
[04:29] <moulty> on other pc running dapper; internet worked without problem via ethernet, installed firestarter - worked fine for perhaps 5 hours, i got 2 high rated attacks it blocked fine, i took ips - whois - portscan etc, soon after that another ip started portscaning me slowly, watched events comming in one after another, again all blocked- when i added that ip to ban rule net totaly stoped working - whois showed the ip was from my isp, so
[04:29] <moulty>  unblocked>net returned, but slowed... my isp kept scanning, i think they perhaps saw my return scanning and whois as attacks? ever since then the connection got slower and slower untill stoping from working totaly - will not even DHCP renew :( Perhaps firestarter is blocking my isp, or my isp is blocking me? windows connects np, as does this pc on ubuntu, any ideas?
[04:30] <Tennessee> bum?
[04:30] <britches> ok flies my first question is.....are there different irc clients all  in this same forum?....i'm in xchat are other ppl in others?
[04:30] <eirejah> damn moulty
[04:30] <stepore> Tennessee, boot up manager
[04:30] <FliesLikeABrick> yes britches exactly
[04:30] <britches> ty
[04:30] <eirejah> britches: im using irssi
[04:30] <Tennessee> apt-cache search bum
[04:30] <stepore> Tennessee, it could be installed already
[04:30] <britches> next question in xchat do my private messeges show as red?
[04:31] <Tennessee> Nope. I have no bum. Installing now.
[04:31] <britches> it appears to be so
[04:31] <stepore> Tennessee, you could do it from terminal if you're comfortable. or with rcconf
[04:31] <FliesLikeABrick> britches  channels show as tabs with names starting as # whereas everything else after the channel tabes are user private messages.  those windows do not have user lists
[04:31] <FliesLikeABrick> tabs*
[04:31] <joe_> FliesLikeABrick: i just ran sudo apt-get -f install for like the 5th time, and it seemed to uninstall like 200 packages and reinstall them all
[04:32] <Tennessee> Righ,t I'll give that a go then...
[04:32] <FliesLikeABrick> joe_  check the log files in /var/log and see if any of them give you details as to why X would not start
[04:33] <joe_> FliesLikeABrick: I'm gonna let this finish real quick and then restart, see if that worked.
[04:33] <joe_> FliesLikeABrick: Another problem though, my feet stink.
[04:33] <FliesLikeABrick> sorry to hear that joe_
[04:34] <Fleebailey33> question: i  can do repositories fine. but how do i programs compiled and everything like off sourceforge ? sorry such a n00b question
[04:34] <victor-r> hola a todos! Does any one know how to disable USPLASH?
[04:34] <Fracture> how do I ignore channel joins and parts ?
[04:34] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell Fleebailey33  about compile
[04:34] <joe_> Fracture: depends on IRC client.
[04:34] <moulty> any firestarter wiz out there?
[04:34] <Fracture> joe_ ok
[04:34] <venox> hey... what's the best bittorrent client out for breezy?
[04:35] <FliesLikeABrick> venox  many people seem to use azureus, last I heard
[04:35] <venox> that gnome torrent client sucks, I can't even set the incoming connections port :P
[04:35] <venox> hmm, azureus is java...
[04:35] <moshe> hmmm
[04:35] <Fleebailey33> bittorando ? venox ?
[04:35] <venox> I want something lightweight
[04:35] <moshe> gimp is giving me an error, saying it can't save a file because permission is denied.  I'm running it as a normal user, though.
[04:35] <FliesLikeABrick> venox  there's always the command-line bit-torrent client which I greatly like ;)
[04:35] <boo> I just installed a program with wine, but all of the words are boxes...im guessing i need some font...where do i get microsoft fonts
[04:35] <venox> bittornado? may be... is there a command line one?
[04:36] <FliesLikeABrick> venox  look in apt
[04:36] <Fleebailey33> hehe
[04:36] <Fracture> joe_: i'm using xchat-gnome
[04:36] <venox> huh, where's the command line one?
[04:36] <_greg> Hello. Urgent question: Install is sitting at "installing the base system" for like 10 mins at 31%.  DO I NEED to reburn a new disc?
[04:36] <victor-r> hola a todos! Does any one know how to disable USPLASH?
[04:36] <FliesLikeABrick> venox apt-get install bittorrent
[04:36] <moulty> _greg, perhaps run disk test from disk boot menu?
[04:36] <britches> flies...ghow do i send a pm?
[04:37] <_greg> k
[04:37] <stepore> _greg, maybe. did you check md5sum
[04:37] <venox> hm
[04:37] <venox> ok
[04:37] <venox> I'll give it a try
[04:37] <FliesLikeABrick> britches  right click on a user's name in the user menu
[04:37] <venox> bittorrent is already the newest version.
[04:37] <venox> huhhhh
[04:37] <_greg> Normally, 5-10 minute pauses is NOT OKAY, right???
[04:37] <moulty> _greg that way you can test disk and iso you burnt also
[04:37] <FliesLikeABrick> venox hit bt <tab> <tab> to see the bit torrent commands, read the man page for usages
[04:37] <britches> ido i offer chat or wat?
[04:37] <venox> hmm true
[04:37] <_greg> what's disk test command
[04:38] <FliesLikeABrick> britches  right click and "Open Chat Dialog"
[04:38] <FliesLikeABrick> er
[04:38] <britches> wat option am i lookin for after i right click in the list
[04:38] <FliesLikeABrick> "Open Dialog Window"
[04:38] <FliesLikeABrick> generally though britches do not PM someone without asking them first
[04:38] <joe_> FliesLikeABrick: Boo, didn't work. I'm going to just reinstall completely and make sure I get ubuntu-base and ubuntu-desktop first! =p
[04:38] <venox> FliesLikeABrick, can I set some default options to the bittorrent cmd line client?
[04:38] <thoreauputic> FliesLikeABrick: quicker is to type  /query <nick>
[04:38] <FliesLikeABrick> thoreauputic feel free to tell britches that,I already knew ;)
[04:38] <britches> ok flies may i pm u
[04:39] <moulty> _greg, boot from cd it in main menu, check disk or somthing, it will test all files needed to install
[04:39] <FliesLikeABrick> no britches, I'm about to go to sleep
[04:39] <thoreauputic> FliesLikeABrick: OK whatever :)
[04:39] <stoned> why does mplayer depend on xmms?
[04:39] <FliesLikeABrick> venox perhaps you can write your own shell/wrapper script.  read the man pages for details on usage, I don't really use it all that much
[04:39] <britches> thor may i pm u then?
[04:39] <venox> ok
[04:39] <venox> thanks ;)
[04:39] <britches> so u can explain wat u just said
[04:39] <boo> gl joe
[04:39] <_greg> not work
[04:40] <moulty> _greg: if test passes, and install crashes, possible hardware/settings problem
[04:40] <thoreauputic> britches: keep it in channel - you just type /query nickname
[04:40] <boo> I see screenshots of people with all kinds of cool stuff in their desktops in linux.....what are these apps and where can i get them?
[04:40] <britches> the sooner i learn to use this the sooner i dont annoy ppl
[04:40] <stepore> _greg, what hardware/computer are you running?
[04:40] <_greg> brand new disk
[04:40] <britches> and what does that do?
[04:40] <FliesLikeABrick> boo I think you need to narrow down "cool stuff"
[04:40] <thoreauputic> britches: as FliesLikeABrick said , it's polite to ask first ;)
[04:40] <thoreauputic> as you did, of course...
[04:40] <britches> i did ask first
[04:40] <_greg> It's a "box" that ran kanotix flawlessly.  I've just put in brand new HDD thought
[04:40] <britches> ok np
[04:40] <thoreauputic> I just added that
[04:41] <thoreauputic> :)
[04:41] <moulty> _greg, what dont work?
[04:41] <britches> i saw but to late
[04:41] <m0rbid> how do i install developer tools?
[04:41] <boo> heh, thing that control media players (xmms), cpu/disk usage, calendar....basically widgets or something similar to google desktop
[04:41] <_greg> It locks up.
[04:41] <_greg> during install
[04:41] <stepore> _greg, if you don't know the hardware than put kanotix back on
[04:41] <thoreauputic> m00s3s: start witht the build-essential package
[04:41] <thoreauputic> m0rbid: taht was for you, sorry
[04:41] <_greg> I know the hardware. Kanotix SUCKS (support especially).  I want syntax for media check
[04:42] <FliesLikeABrick> boo do these commands and read the descriptions: apt-cache search gkrellm, apt-cache search xmms | grep plugin, apt-cache search widgets
[04:42] <m0rbid> thanks
[04:42] <moulty> _greg new disk could have error still - the cd itself or image you got from net, cd boot menu test will find out.
[04:42] <_greg> what's syntax for that?
[04:42] <joe_> Note: Upgrades from Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) to Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger) are not supported and not recommended.
[04:42] <joe_> Damnit. They should have told me.
[04:42] <stepore> _greg, try to address the person you're responding to. start typing their name then hit tab
[04:43] <CodyDH> Hi! I'm using NetworkManager, but when I enter my KEY in the pop-up window to connect to my network, it sits there, and then quits.
[04:43] <_greg> okay, EVERYONE, what is syntax for media check at install?
[04:43] <thoreauputic> _greg: md5sum <file> then compare it to the md5sum number fro the ISO
[04:43] <thoreauputic> I think there's a buillt-in check in the installer as well...
[04:43] <victor-r> alright, I have been able to help myself.. in case this makes it to some archive: to remove usplash, edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove splash from any "kernel" lines..
[04:43] <_greg> syntax for that?
[04:44] <thoreauputic> haven't used it recently :)
[04:44] <theCore> is it normal when I start glxgears it go to a very low frame-rate? If not, how do I fix that?
[04:44] <stepore> _greg, again. what kind of hardware or computer do you have?
[04:44] <fiendskull9> Hello
[04:44] <fiendskull9> where is the gimp installed at?
[04:44] <britches> i prefer a 1 on 1 conversation.....if anyone is willing to help a noob with this chat forum pm me
[04:44] <_greg> stepore, it's an Aptiva box, with a new Hitachi Deskstar drive in it.
[04:44] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: /usr/bin/gimp
[04:44] <boo> i just installed a plugin for itouch in xmms...do i have to restart X for it to work?
[04:44] <joe_> FliesLikeABrick: In light of recent events, I've changed my hostname from paperweight to deadmeat.
[04:44] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: amongst other places...
[04:44] <FliesLikeABrick> heh joe_
[04:44] <victor-r> fiendskull9: dpgk -L gimp
[04:44] <FliesLikeABrick> britches  try #ubuntu-offtopic for non-ubuntu related questions
[04:45] <stepore> _greg, did the live cd work?
[04:45] <moulty> _greg, you CANT miss it, its in the main menu!!.... oh, hold on... is that a dapper only feature people? i forget the breezy install cd?
[04:45] <stepore> moulty, i think dapper only
[04:46] <britches> ?
[04:46] <_greg> okay, memtest, stepore & moutly?
[04:46] <moulty> thx, sorry _greg, i take it your installing breezy?
[04:46] <_greg> 5.10 kubuntu
[04:46] <britches> i would but i dont know how to change channels yet
[04:46] <stepore> _greg, memtest is only for memory
[04:46] <moulty> yeah, my bad
[04:46] <Fujitsu>  /join #channelname, britches.
[04:46] <britches> ty
[04:47] <moulty> how else can you disk test 5.10?
[04:47] <stepore> _greg, from a terminal window. you need to run md5sum agains the breezy.iso file you downloaded. you dig?
[04:47] <_greg> k
[04:47] <thoreauputic> britches: it isn't usual to get personal attention  - this is IRC and others learn from your questions and the answers you get to them
[04:47] <boo> britches, i feel for you, im learning too :>
[04:47] <stepore> _greg, maybe you need to reburn with a lower burn speed. could be faulty media.
[04:48] <moulty> anyone know if around 30% of install is driver setup phase?
[04:48] <stoned> why does mplayer depend on xmms?
[04:48] <thoreauputic> stoned: good question
[04:48] <stepore> _greg, of if you want to try installing with what you have, then try with acpi=off at the install boot prompt
[04:48] <thoreauputic> stoned: I'd like to know too :)
[04:49] <stoned> thoreauputic, yeah, its not like so in debian afaik
[04:50] <theCore> stoned: mplayer is probably linked to one of xmms libaries
[04:50] <thoreauputic> theCore: then it should depend on the library, not on xmms
[04:50] <moulty> on other pc running dapper; internet worked without problem via ethernet, installed firestarter - worked fine for perhaps 5 hours, i got 2 high rated attacks it blocked fine, i took ips - whois - portscan etc, soon after that another ip started portscaning me slowly, watched events comming in one after another, again all blocked- when i added that ip to ban rule net totaly stoped working - whois showed the ip was from my isp, so
[04:50] <moulty>  unblocked>net returned, but slowed... my isp kept scanning, i think they perhaps saw my return scanning and whois as attacks? ever since then the connection got slower and slower untill stoping from working totaly - will not even DHCP renew :( Perhaps firestarter is blocking my isp, or my isp is blocking me? windows connects np, as does this pc on ubuntu, any ideas?
[04:50] <thoreauputic> theCore: it's a weird dependency IMO
[04:50] <zanth> good evening
[04:50] <theCore> thoreauputic: yeah
[04:50] <stoned> can one downgrade to breezy from dapper via sources.list?
[04:51] <zanth> is there anything availble that would permit secure vnc'ing? I assume remote desktop is not encrypted
[04:51] <thoreauputic> stoned: not without much pain and a lot of expertise
[04:51] <stepore> stoned, please don't. you'll break everything
[04:51] <theCore> thoreauputic: or, maybe mplayer use xmms as a backend player
[04:52] <`Boo`> I need some serious help getting my logitech wireless keyboard's media keys working. Some work, such as Email, volume, mute, web, but the most important ones, play, pause, ect. do not.
[04:52] <stoned> I don't like some of those depends
[04:52] <thoreauputic> theCore: not as far as I know - and I'm sure if you compile it you don't have to compile xmms as well :)
[04:52] <stoned> i hate xmms and dont want it, but i need mplayer
[04:52] <stepore> stoned, then build it from source
[04:52] <stoned> and good god its annoying cuz it always gets started
[04:52] <stoned> well
[04:52] <stoned> how
[04:52] <stoned> using apt it still has to build depends
[04:52] <stepore> stoned, address people by name
[04:52] <stoned> i dunno how to made a deb
[04:52] <thoreauputic> stoned: you can uninstall it probably - check  rdepends, and apt-cache depends xmms
[04:53] <stoned> stepore, huh
[04:53] <stepore> stoned, do to mplayer's website and grab the source
[04:53] <stoned> oh
[04:53] <theCore> thoreauputic: mplayer is one of the hardest package to compile because of his dependencies
[04:54] <thoreauputic> theCore: yes - I was just making the point that it shouldn't depend on xmms, though
[04:54] <stoned> how do i make my own mplayer debs without the xmms dependcy
[04:54] <`Boo`> stoned...you could always install it and not use it...lol
[04:54] <stepore> stoned, where's the problem. just don't use xmms after it's installed.
[04:55] <`Boo`> stepore, are you knowledgable about keyboards? Can you help me get my media keys working?
[04:55] <stoned> stepore, im anal.  why does it depend on it in the first place. it is ridiculous
[04:55] <theCore> thoreauputic: I found it
[04:55] <stoned> i dont' want xmms installed
[04:56] <stepore> sorry boo i don't do wireless keyboards or mice
[04:56] <stoned> i have half a mind to just go back to debian because of these little thigns
[04:56] <theCore> thoreauputic: MPlayer does depend on one of the xmms libaries
[04:56] <moulty> think firestarter has learned to block my isp, though now have no block rules. will not DHCP renew now
[04:56] <thoreauputic> stoned: what happens if you uninstall xmms afterwards?
[04:56] <stoned> thoreauputic, obviously it will want to remove mplayer as wel
[04:56] <stepore> stoned, try this, it still may work on breezy: http://www.oldskoolphreak.com/tfiles/hack/ubuntu.txt
[04:57] <stoned> I mean I just don't understand what went through the package maintainer's mind
[04:57] <moulty> should i disable or uninstall firestarter to test?
[04:57] <thoreauputic> stoned: I don't think so -  xmms does not depend on mplayer
[04:57] <stoned> thoreauputic, its the other way around
[04:57] <theCore> thoreauputic: but it's optional
[04:57] <thoreauputic> stoned: *sigh* reread what I said
[04:57] <`Boo`> Is there anyone here who can help me get my media keys working?...or at least the ones that dont work?
[04:58] <theCore> stoned: if you removed XMMS, MPlayer will lose some features
[04:58] <stoned> xmms (>= 1.2.10+cvs20050209) <-- mplayer depends on this
[04:59] <stoned> theCore, mplayer gets removed totally when xmms is removed
[04:59] <stoned> bunghole@desktop 0.20 /home/bunghole 0 files using 1.6k
[04:59] <stoned> $>remove xmms
[04:59] <stoned> The following packages will be REMOVED:
[04:59] <stoned>   mplayer-386 xmms
[05:00] <thoreauputic> stoned: hmm - bug filing time methinks
[05:00] <theCore> stoned: can you pastebin the output of "ldd `which mplayer`"
[05:00] <stoned> same thing with amarok
[05:00] <stoned> its autodepending on mysql
[05:00] <stoned> what if one doesn't want mysql anywhere near them
[05:00] <stepore> thoreauputic, you really think that's a bug?
[05:00] <stoned> its just these little pet peeves that keep annoying me
[05:00] <stoned> its not really THAT big of a deal
[05:01] <thoreauputic> stepore: why on earth should mplayer depend on xmms?
[05:01] <stepore> thoreauputic, shared lib
[05:01] <stoned> stepore, then depend on the lib, simple
[05:01] <`Boo`> keyboard help anyone :<
[05:01] <thoreauputic> stepore: what would be the problem with installin just the lib?
[05:01] <moulty> anyone know howto disable firestarter from loading at boot?
[05:01] <thoreauputic> hey bimberi :)
[05:02] <stepore> moulty, use bum for an easy way
[05:02] <moulty> !bum
[05:02] <ubotu> I heard bum is a graphical BootUp Manager; see http://www.marzocca.net/linux/bum.html
[05:02] <bimberi> thoreauputic: hi :)  can i pm you?
[05:02] <mikebot> .join #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:02] <moulty> stepore, thx
[05:02] <mikebot> oops, sorry
[05:03] <thoreauputic> bimberi: sure :)
[05:03] <stepore> stoned, did you try that link i posed?
[05:03] <Timeline> Hi all
[05:04] <moulty> stepore, does bum come with dapper, or shall have to dl and burn-off?
[05:05] <stepore> moulty, i think it comes now. but if not just use apt-get
[05:05] <coold00d> hi
[05:05] <chad> Can someone help me to get opaquefocus to work with compiz? Im using dapper
[05:05] <moulty> thx
[05:05] <coold00d> i think ubuntu linux sucks compared to windows
[05:05] <`Boo`> coold00d, you must be a gamer
[05:05] <dmb> no, he must work for ms
[05:05] <Timeline> I just installed ubuntu base and am trying to set up apache, do i need to do the full install for that?
[05:05] <`Boo`> I need some serious help getting my logitech wireless keyboard's media keys working. Some work, such as Email, volume, mute, web, but the most important ones, play, pause, ect. do not. any help?
[05:05] <CodyDH> Anyone know why NetworkManager might not connect to my wireless network despite my entering the correct key
[05:05] <zanth> i am trying to get an encrypted remote connection, tunneling vnc is an option I would like to avoid, I wanted to go with freenx but it won't install...apparently it is absent from the repositories and downloading from the site gives errors of nxagent refusing to install
[05:06] <zanth> anyone have any suggestions?
[05:06] <CodyDH> Or when I disable they key, it still wont' connect?
[05:06] <`Boo`> LINUS WHERE ARE YOU!
[05:06] <chad> is anyone using opaquefocus in Compiz/XGL ?
[05:07] <useruser> zanth: just curious, but why is tunelled vnc bad? I presume you know about ssh port forwarding
[05:07] <stepore> zanth, what repos do you have for freenx?
[05:07] <Timeline> I can't re the repositories set up right
[05:07] <phrowzen> anyone know why momentarily, if i launch a tool via the gnome-panel, it will first pop up a little 'warning' window, i cant see what else it says, then it will immediately go away whenever the application i open shows itself?
[05:09] <zanth> stepore, I had the repository from this link: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=827499&postcount=44
[05:09] <stepore> phrowzen, try running strace then command
[05:09] <zanth> stepore, I also have everything available by default in ubuntu enabled
[05:09] <zanth> useruser, port forwarding could work I suppose, but I am using NAT and sometimes I want to ssh into a different machine that my own
[05:09] <stepore> zanth, what repose do you have. i'd rather not follow a forum
[05:09] <phrowzen> stepore, wow.. strace just produces a whole lot of gibberish ;)
[05:10] <zanth> Stepore, deb http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx breezy-seveas freenx
[05:10] <stepore> phrowzen, anything legible
[05:10] <coold00d> NOTICE: LINUX SUCKS
[05:10] <phrowzen> nah
[05:10] <dmb> coold00d, troll
[05:10] <dmb> why are you in this room?
[05:11] <Timeline> coold00d no you just don't know what your doing
[05:11] <stepore> zanth, try this one: deb http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/ breezy-seveas freenx
[05:11] <dmb> actually, i think he/she is brainwashed by bill gates
[05:11] <coold00d> yes i know what im doing
[05:11] <Timeline> he/she has a brain?
[05:11] <coold00d> i know all the kommandz
[05:11] <useruser> coold00d: all of them?
[05:11] <coold00d> yes
[05:12] <useruser> coold00d: wow, you really are cool
[05:12] <coold00d> like rm and md and mv and cp and shit
[05:12] <dmb> how about this one: rm -rf /
[05:12] <dmb> (no, don't do that)
[05:12] <coold00d> yes i know that one
[05:12] <Timeline> So can anyone answer my question?
[05:12] <coold00d> i know every command
[05:13] <coold00d> they all suck compared to windows
[05:13] <neurosis_> i love it when i read and read and read and then when i think im about to give up i read a little more and then things just work
[05:13] <dmb> Timeline, whats your question
[05:13] <NickGarvey> !language
[05:13] <phrowzen> stepore, i noticed before since i moved to dapper, if some programs hang, it gives me the opportunity to click the button it gives me to forcefully end the program... is it just going ahead and showing me this dialog, and then hiding itself once the application successfully loads?
[05:13] <dmb> coold00d, yes, linux shells all suck to ms's command prompt
[05:13] <dmb> thats why its used to often in windoze
[05:13] <Timeline> I need to get apache running, can I do that with the base install?
[05:13] <dmb> in tons of programs!
[05:14] <stepore> phrowzen, you're using dapper?
[05:14] <coold00d> i use the command prompt ever day
[05:14] <useruser> Timeline: don't see why not. doesn't apt-get install apache sort it all out?
[05:14] <phrowzen> stepore, correct
[05:14] <dmb> Timeline, sure, just base install
[05:14] <mikebot> !latex
[05:14] <zanth> stepore, that doesn't seem to work
[05:14] <Timeline> I read I needed to type sudo apt-get apache2, is that right?
[05:14] <mikebot> how do i run latex?
[05:14] <stepore> phrowzen, try the dapper channel
[05:15] <zanth> stepore, GPG error: http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl breezy-seveas Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBK
[05:15] <useruser> Timeline: sudo apt-get install apache2
[05:15] <stepore> zanth, doesn't 'seem' how?
[05:15] <useruser> Timeline: or use synaptic or something like that
[05:15] <coold00d> linux has no commecial support
[05:15] <coold00d> it blows
[05:15] <CreatureOfLegend> Hello.
[05:15] <dmb> coold00d, wrong again] 
[05:15] <phrowzen> stepore, thanks
[05:15] <useruser> mikebot: you just run latex file.tex
[05:15] <Timeline> I tried that it wouldn't work
[05:15] <NickGarvey> coold00d: silly silly, red hat
[05:15] <coold00d> i know how to use vi it sucks compared to edit
[05:15] <zanth> stepore, here is the rest:  49A120FD1135D466
[05:15] <zanth> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl breezy-seveas/freenx Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/seveas.ubuntulinux.nl_dists_breezy-seveas_freenx_binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[05:15] <zanth> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[05:15] <zanth> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[05:15] <NickGarvey> coold00d: I love vi
[05:15] <cfh_dev> on a local network, it seems to take a long time to mount an nfs share.  Are there some options to help speed this up?
[05:15] <mikebot> useruser, i can't ju8st type like "latex" in terminal or in alt+f1?
[05:15] <Timeline> oh wait you said I need to type install?
[05:16] <NickGarvey> ;) @ dmb
[05:16] <useruser> mikebot: right, in a terminal
[05:16] <stepore> zanth -- do: gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 1135D466
[05:16] <stepore> gpg --export --armor 1135D466 | sudo apt-key add -
[05:16] <sword-> has anyone tried bblog or any other open source blog softwre?
[05:16] <coold00d> vi sucks compared to notepad
[05:16] <NsOmNiAc> wth
[05:16] <Timeline> hang on I'll try that
[05:16] <dmb> ok, now im beginning to think that coold00d is just joking with us
[05:16] <NickGarvey> .. yeah
[05:16] <stepore> zanth, as root you nned to add those keys to gpg
[05:16] <NickGarvey> not as much fun when they are joking
[05:16] <useruser> mikebot: I don't know if you have the texify program, but if you do then you could associate .tex files with that in nautilus
[05:17] <jmorris1> ubuntu dapper has a few bugs.......... macromedia flash installs on automated installl and when a manual install is done, google video for instance does not work right as the video is delayed
[05:17] <jmorris1> i mean fails on automated install
[05:17] <mikebot> useruser, i don't even know how to work this...when i open it, what do i do if i want a new file?
[05:17] <coold00d> one thingk that sucks abou linux is there is no standard distrbytion
[05:17] <fiendskull9> hello
[05:17] <coold00d> they all do differnet shit
[05:17] <coold00d> hi fiend
[05:17] <useruser> mikebot: erm, ignore that last comment :)
[05:17] <useruser> mikebot: you want to open a terminal first
[05:17] <fiendskull9> why does xmms take all the sound?
[05:18] <zanth> stepore, when you say as root, do you mean precede what you typed with sudo?
[05:18] <useruser> mikebot: then cd /path/to/latex/file
[05:18] <NickGarvey> yeah hes joking
[05:18] <jmorris1> ubuntu still needs work :(
[05:18] <fiendskull9> i cant get sound from anything else when xmms is open and playing
[05:18] <CreatureOfLegend> Would one of you kind ladies and gentlemen help me out w/ something?  I'm trying to install a software modem. I did scanModem and it tells me I need a Lucent driver (I think), so I'm going by the DialupModemHow to on the wiki and on the step where you type in "sudo modprobe lt_serial" I get an eror saying "Module Lt_serial not found".  The previous steps went ok. I'm using Ubuntu version 5.10.
[05:18] <useruser> mikebot: then type latex file.tex
[05:18] <stepore> zanth, follow this tutorial. it works for breezy. worked for me. http://www.snakeoillabs.com/2005/10/27/freenx-on-ubuntu-breezy-howto/
[05:18] <CreatureOfLegend> What should I do?
[05:18] <stepore> zanth, yes, with sudo.
[05:18] <jmorris1> getting more stable
[05:18] <mikebot> useruser, ah okay
[05:18] <fiendskull9> i cant wait for dapper
[05:18] <jmorris1> hmm
[05:18] <zanth> stepore, thanks man I'll have a read
[05:18] <fiendskull9> will i be able to apt-get dapper?
[05:18] <coold00d> Bush is a good president
[05:18] <stepore> zanth, good luck it works
[05:18] <fiendskull9> or will i have to order some new cds
[05:19] <dmb> coold00d, at least leave politics out of it
[05:19] <Timeline> ok that worked, it installed apache
[05:19] <coold00d> sorry i am trying to troll
[05:19] <useruser> coold00d: you are a particularly unimaginative troll, i have to say. 2/10 for effort
[05:19] <coold00d> trying to get people rield up
[05:19] <mikebot> useruser, only found these
[05:19] <mikebot> http://www.alienware.com/product_detail_pages/area-51_m5500/area-51m_features.aspx?SysCode=PC-LT-AREA51-M-5500&SubCode=SKU-DEFAULT
[05:19] <mikebot> ack sorry
[05:19] <mikebot> /usr/share/doc/texmf/latex/platex/tstlatex.tex.gz
[05:19] <fiendskull9> hey
[05:19] <mikebot> /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/vietnam/testlatex.tex
[05:19] <useruser> mikebot: why do you want to run latex?
[05:19] <CreatureOfLegend> <.<
[05:19] <CreatureOfLegend> >.>
[05:19] <fiendskull9> how come xmms takes all my sound? i cant get sound from anything when im running a song in xmms.
[05:19] <coold00d> what is a good troll to use
[05:19] <Timeline> does apache2 have php, mysql, etc?
[05:19] <mikebot> useruser, i want to create a new document in it, and save it
[05:19] <fiendskull9> no
[05:20] <useruser> mikebot: aha!
[05:20] <fiendskull9> you  must install those seperately
[05:20] <fiendskull9> Timeline: i reccomend you get a LAMP distro
[05:20] <useruser> mikebot: i was under the impression that you already had downloaded a latex file from somewhere
[05:20] <mikebot> useruser, no no
[05:20] <useruser> mikebot: you want to open a text editor, preferably one that knows about latex
[05:20] <coold00d> fiend kbecause linux has shitty multitasking capibilites
[05:20] <Timeline> fiendskull9 whats that?
[05:20] <useruser> mikebot: i use emacs, but there are plenty of others
[05:20] <mikebot> latex isn't standalone?
[05:21] <dmb> coold00d, you have shitty multitasking abilities, as well as troll abilities
[05:21] <coold00d> linux can't multitask sound the way windows can
[05:21] <fiendskull9> Timeline: It installs apache, mysql, and php.
[05:21] <fiendskull9> thanks cooldood
[05:21] <coold00d> welcome
[05:21] <CreatureOfLegend> Does anybody know at the support IRC channel for Ubuntu linux is?
[05:21] <useruser> mikebot: you need to create a .tex file in a text editor. latex is the program that converts that into beautiful output
[05:21] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: you are there
[05:21] <fiendskull9> CreautreOfLegend: your here :P
[05:21] <bimberi> CreatureOfLegend: right here
[05:21] <fiendskull9> lol
[05:21] <mikebot> can i use gedit?
[05:21] <Timeline> is that for ubuntu?
[05:21] <NickGarvey> CreatureOfLegend: ./
[05:21] <CreatureOfLegend> So how do you get support?
[05:21] <fr500> hrmmmm
[05:21] <useruser> mikebot: sure, but i'm not sure how great it is for this stuff
[05:21] <NickGarvey> CreatureOfLegend: ask a question
[05:21] <fr500> ask
[05:22] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, just ask
[05:22] <CreatureOfLegend> NickGarvey: I did :)
[05:22] <mikebot> useruser, how do i get emacs?
[05:22] <fiendskull9> Timeline: hold on man, ill get you a nice link
[05:22] <useruser> mikebot: if you use emacs or kile then it'll run latex for you and save lots of time
[05:22] <CreatureOfLegend> CreatureOfLegend	Would one of you kind ladies and gentlemen help me out w/ something? I'm trying to install a software modem. I did scanModem and it tells me I need a Lucent driver (I think), so I'm going by the DialupModemHow to on the wiki and on the step where you type in "sudo modprobe lt_serial" I get an eror saying "Module Lt_serial not found". The previous steps went ok. I'm using Ubuntu version 5.10.
[05:22] <fiendskull9> Timeline: if what i show you doesnt explain, i reccomend you get the linux bible from borders our something.
[05:22] <useruser> mikebot: type sudo apt-get install emacs auctex into a terminal
[05:22] <Timeline> lol
[05:22] <Timeline> I'm very new to linux sorry
[05:22] <useruser> mikebot: er scratch that
[05:22] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, did you do a make install?
[05:22] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: did you type that with the caps?
[05:22] <useruser> mikebot: type sudo apt-get install emacs21 auctex into a terminal
[05:23] <fiendskull9> Timeline: im kind of new too, but you ketch on to it.
[05:23] <chad> If anyone knows anything about Compiz, could you talk to me in #Xgl-ubuntu please
[05:23] <ubotu> hmm... language is 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.
[05:23] <ubotu> I guess latex is a document preparation system for high-quality typesetting. See http://www.latex-project.org/ for more info.
[05:23] <CreatureOfLegend> dmb: what do you mean make install?
[05:23] <Timeline> I was told ubuntu would be fine for a web server
[05:23] <fiendskull9> Timeline: thats good that you chose ubnuntu, the apt-get makes everything really easy
[05:23] <dmb> well, did you compile the sources?
[05:23] <CreatureOfLegend> fr500: No I typed in all lower case
[05:23] <useruser> ubotu: you are sloooow
[05:23] <ubotu> useruser: what are you talking about?
[05:23] <fiendskull9> Timeline: I reccomend debian if you want a good fast server.
[05:23] <Timeline> I couldn't even get debian installed
[05:23] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: sorry no clue, i don't use a modem anymore
[05:23] <coold00d> i recomend windows 2003 server if you want a good fast server
[05:24] <CreatureOfLegend> dmb the how to guide didn't say to compile anything.
[05:24] <fr500> coold00d: what a wacko
[05:24] <dmb> one sec
[05:24] <CreatureOfLegend> Ok
[05:24] <NickGarvey> !dial-up
[05:24] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[05:24] <NickGarvey> !dialup
[05:24] <ubotu> hmm... dialup is https://wiki.ubuntu.com//DialupModemHowto
[05:24] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: what-s the url for the guide
[05:24] <NickGarvey> thats it
[05:24] <PseudoPlacebo> I reccomend windows 2003 if you want a server that's easily exploited and crashes occasionally.
[05:24] <CreatureOfLegend> wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[05:25] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: do you have the restrictd modules?
[05:25] <Timeline> so should I stick with ubuntu or get LAMP or something else?
[05:25] <coold00d> get windows
[05:25] <coold00d> its best cfhoice for modems
[05:25] <fiendskull9> Timeline: seriously, buy the linux bible
[05:25] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: i386?
[05:25] <PseudoPlacebo> ....
[05:25] <CreatureOfLegend> fr500: I think so. the package manager says they are installed
[05:25] <NickGarvey> Timeline: I got apache mysql and php to work on ubuntu
[05:25] <Timeline> I have windows idiot, but I want to learn something else
[05:26] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: what kernel?
[05:26] <coold00d> why
[05:26] <NickGarvey> Timeline: mind you I don't know crap about any of those but they worked
[05:26] <CreatureOfLegend> The check box next to it is checked, so I think it's installed
[05:26] <coold00d> windows is best os idiot
[05:26] <kcompass> a
[05:26] <fiendskull9> hey mikebot or anyone that knows alot...
[05:26] <CreatureOfLegend> How do I check the version of the kernel?
[05:26] <fr500> Timeline: /ignore username is your friend
[05:26] <nalioth> Timeline: coold00d let us be respectful
[05:26] <Timeline> not for servers idiot
[05:26] <fiendskull9> Ubugtu: please kick coold00d
[05:26] <CreatureOfLegend> (sorry I'm a n00b at linux)
[05:26] <dmb> coold00d, your going to wind up getting yourself kicked and banned
[05:26] <mikebot> fiendskull: that's not me
[05:26] <coold00d> i have come to that konclusion after listening to hype and fucking with linux linux basically breaks a computer
[05:26] <fiendskull9> ok

[05:26] <fiendskull9> does anyone know
[05:26] <fiendskull9> if we already have apache running
[05:26] <NickGarvey> fiendskull9: let me check
[05:26] <NickGarvey> fiendskull9: you behind a router?
[05:26] <fiendskull9> and we do sudo apt-get install mysql, will it auto run with apache
[05:27] <fiendskull9> ior do i need to configure mysql
[05:27] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: uname -r
[05:27] <fiendskull9> NickGarvey
[05:27] <coold00d> mysql sucks compared to microsovt sql
[05:27] <CreatureOfLegend> fr500: 2.6.12-9-386
[05:27] <crimsun> coold00d: on-topic, please.
[05:27] <fiendskull9> NickGarvey: please message Timeline and help him with setting up lamp, i dont have much time right now
[05:27] <NickGarvey> okie
[05:27] <NickGarvey> well we could prob do it in here
[05:27] <coold00d> shut up crimsun
[05:27] <NickGarvey> !pm
[05:27] <ubotu> Ask your questions in the channel so that other people may also benefit from answers received.
[05:27] <fiendskull9> coold00d: you realize that microsoft copys osx?
[05:28] <NickGarvey> Timeline: so what are you trying to get working
[05:28] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, you have linux-restricted-modules-x86 installed?
[05:28] <fiendskull9> NickGarvey: hes wanting to get a LAMP running
[05:28] <fr500> fiendskull9: copy??? OSx has a BSD like kernel, BSD is by far  better imho
[05:28] <CreatureOfLegend> dmb: I believe so. I checked in the package manager and it had a checkmark next to it.
[05:28] <fiendskull9> fr500: ever since os9 Mac has been unix based
[05:28] <fiendskull9> fr500: what i meant is the interface, and controls
[05:29] <fr500> ok
[05:29] <fiendskull9> fr500: hold on, i have a funny video that displays the fact
[05:29] <NickGarvey> Timeline: anyone home ;)?
[05:30] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: you right those modeles are not there
[05:30] <mikebot> useruser, done
[05:30] <NickGarvey> where is the output for the /ping command in IRC if used on a user
[05:30] <CreatureOfLegend> fr500: So what shold I do?
[05:30] <fiendskull9> fr500: http://youtube.com/watch?v=4pqYDJSQbvo
[05:30] <fiendskull9> fr500: its hilarious
[05:30] <useruser> mikebot: ok. now run emacs (it's probably in a menu somewhere, if not then open up a terminal and type emacs)
[05:31] <dmb> hmm
[05:31] <useruser> mikebot: run the tutorial, learn how to operate it and read some of the auctex manual (press control-h i in emacs to bring up info, and look for auctex)
[05:31] <useruser> mikebot: the learning curve is a little steeper than most editors, but it's very very powerful
[05:31] <mikebot> useruser, it's very ugly
[05:31] <mzinz> I downloaded and installed BMPx.  It worked fine last night, but now when I try to open it, the splash comes up but nothing else.. any clue why?
[05:31] <useruser> mikebot: that too :)
[05:31] <mikebot> haha
[05:31] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, i think the maker of that wiki might have told us to modprobe the wrong modules, one that doesn't exist
[05:31] <Xenguy> !start an editor war
[05:32] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Xenguy
[05:32] <Xenguy> awww
[05:32] <mikebot> useruser, yuck, and the menus use the elft handed (so to speak) mouse
[05:32] <mikebot> *left
[05:32] <fr500> mzinz: #bmp
[05:32] <useruser> mikebot: yup. i don't use the mouse much with emacs at all
[05:32] <CreatureOfLegend> dmb: so I'm stuck modemless? :(
[05:32] <mikebot> useruser, how do i run the tutorial?
[05:33] <useruser> mikebot: hit control-h then t (in emacs-speak, C-h t)
[05:33] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, one sec, im looking
[05:33] <CreatureOfLegend> dmb: Ok. Thank you! ^_^
[05:33] <mikebot> useruser, ah, thanks
[05:35] <`Boo`> hey, will mv ~itunes/*/*/*.* ~/desktop/music move all of my organized music files into one big folder?
[05:35] <Xenguy> that's wrong
[05:35] <dmb> ok, this is really weird
[05:35] <nalioth> `Boo`: i'd use 'cp' to be safe
[05:35] <nalioth> `Boo`: 'mv' is another name for "delete"
[05:35] <`Boo`> oh
[05:35] <dmb> under linux restricted modules
[05:36] <mikebot> useruser, i think i erased/saved the tutorial
[05:36] <dmb> it says it includes  - ltmodem (Winmodem) module
[05:36] <`Boo`> Will the *.*, ect work?
[05:36] <dmb> but it is not in the package
[05:36] <mikebot> useruser, haha got it back
[05:36] <Dr_Willis> i dont think using that many *'s  that way will do what you want.
[05:36] <nalioth> `Boo`: only one * is necessary
[05:36] <Dr_Willis> and *.* means only files with a . in the name.
[05:36] <NickGarvey> `Boo`: what I think I would do is "find -name *.mp3 | cp ~/Desktop/music" or something like that
[05:36] <NickGarvey> maybe you need a < instead or something
[05:36] <Dr_Willis> try 'echo YourWildCards' and see what gets matched
[05:37] <_timeline> Hi again
[05:37] <fiendskull9> NickGarvey: did timeline have anyluck with his LAMP?
[05:37] <FlannelKing> fiendskull9: is that the MS audio merged with OSX video?
[05:37] <`Boo`> how do you make a dir.?  md?
[05:37] <useruser> `Boo`: mkdir
[05:37] <NickGarvey> mkdir
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> !bash
[05:37] <ubotu> For a list of basic commands, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands
[05:37] <NickGarvey> fiendskull9: he didn't respond and left the room
[05:37] <CreatureOfLegend> dmb: that note right underneath the one that lists the error, is this relating to this problem by any chance?
[05:37] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=93852&highlight=ltmodem
[05:37] <NickGarvey> oh he there he is
[05:37] <useruser> NickGarvey: you want -exec
[05:37] <fr500> what do you use for VPNs?
[05:37] <dmb> thats seems to provide a better tutorial
[05:37] <_timeline> sorry NickGarvey had to register this nick before I could talk anymore
[05:37] <NickGarvey> _timeline: want some help with LAMP?
[05:37] <NickGarvey> :)
[05:37] <fiendskull9> FlannelKing: a guy took a pressconfrence audio about bill gates explaining vistsas "ground breaking" techbnology, and he did EVERYTHING bill siad, in unmodded osx
[05:38] <CreatureOfLegend> dmb: I'll try that. Thank you! :)
[05:38] <Timeline> Yes please
[05:38] <FlannelKing> yeah, thats what it looked like, except super zoom
[05:38] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, thats a bug on ubuntus end
[05:38] <thoreauputic> Timeline: you just evaded a +q - you're lucky you are still here
[05:38] <dmb> it really shoudl be in that package
[05:38] <weekang> hi
[05:38] <dmb> but you can always compile it, which will install it anyway
[05:38] <NickGarvey> Timeline: okie so what in paticular are you working on?
[05:38] <weekang> can anyone tell me how to restart wnck-applet?
[05:38] <thoreauputic> Timeline: not an acceptable way to react, you know
[05:39] <Timeline> what's a +q?
[05:39] <CreatureOfLegend> dmb: that tutorial you gave me alink to, it will fix it?
[05:39] <NickGarvey> Timeline: want to hit apache first?
[05:39] <thoreauputic> Timeline: you were quieted by nalioth
[05:39] <weekang> mathematica crashed the applet, so i killed it but when it asked to restart i clicked 'no'
[05:39] <vars> in open office how do i turn off the auto number feature?
[05:39] <nalioth> Timeline: civility is the rule of order here
[05:39] <vars> where it numbers list?
[05:39] <Timeline> Sorry
[05:39] <weekang> and i lost my panels etc
[05:39] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, yeh, that will get you to the point of modprobing the module
[05:39] <thoreauputic> Timeline: my error, apparently it timed out
[05:39] <`Boo`> cp ~/Desktop/iTunes/*/*.* ~/Desktop/music/
[05:39] <`Boo`>      that didnt work...any idea why?
[05:40] <nalioth> `Boo`: too many *
[05:40] <useruser> `Boo`: cp won't copy directories by default
[05:40] <CreatureOfLegend> Creature's stupid question of the month: what's modprobing?
[05:40] <nalioth> `Boo`: in a terminal, type "cp --help
[05:40] <nalioth> "
[05:40] <dmb> CreatureOfLegend, that means inserting the driver into the kernel
[05:40] <fr500> CreatureOfLegend: some drivers are not "buit in"
[05:41] <thoreauputic> CreatureOfLegend: inserting a modile/driver in the running kernel
[05:41] <dmb> so other programs/userspace can use the device
[05:41] <thoreauputic> *modue
[05:41] <Timeline> Sorry I didn't mean to brake any rules
[05:41] <Xenguy> `Boo`: cp -R ~/Desktop/iTunes/* ~/Desktop/music    ?
[05:41] <CreatureOfLegend> Ooo! Ok. Thanks guys.
[05:41] <fr500> thoreauputic: bad day for typing?
[05:41] <thoreauputic> fr500: every day is a bad day for typing for me ;-)
[05:41] <fr500> hehe
[05:42] <`Boo`> recursively means through the dir.s?
[05:42] <NickGarvey> whats the commad to send a message to another user, I thought it was /msg username message
[05:42] <FunnyLookinHat> Anyone know if I can create another partition on my hard drive with remaining free space in one of my existisng partitions?
[05:42] <fr500> what is the easiest way to set up VPNs in a ubuntu to ubuntu escenario?
[05:42] <Xenguy> `Boo`: basically, yes
[05:42] <`Boo`> oh
[05:42] <`Boo`> doh, thats not what i wanted to do
[05:42] <NickGarvey> FunnyLookinHat: yes of course
[05:42] <NickGarvey> FunnyLookinHat: how else would we shrink windows to make room for linux ;)
[05:42] <fr500> i'm using SSH-VPNs but setting up authentication is a pita
[05:42] <thoreauputic> fr500: when I give root/sudo commands I type *very slowly and carefully* ;-D
[05:42] <FunnyLookinHat> NickGarvey, I'd like to do it on this machine which already has ubuntu installed...  use CFDISK?
[05:42] <`Boo`> i wanted to take all of the files in multiple directories and put them into one.
[05:42] <fr500> thoreauputic: lol
[05:43] <NickGarvey> !qtparted
[05:43] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[05:43] <NickGarvey> !info qtparted
[05:43] <ubotu> qtparted: (A parted frontend using QT), section universe/x11, is optional. Version: 0.4.4-4ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 195 kB, Installed size: 712 kB
[05:43] <NickGarvey> gparted is good too
[05:43] <igbee> hi im trying to install ubuntu but i got to the partitioner, and i already ahve partitioned my drive prior to install how do i skip the pertitionr
[05:43] <NickGarvey> thats a boot CD
[05:43] <FunnyLookinHat> ahh ok, thanks NickGarvey !
[05:43] <`Boo`> any idea how to do that Xenguy
[05:43] <ian_> on dapper.  nautilus simply cannot open my media folder, but if I rename it, it opens fine.  any ideas how to fix / diagnose?
[05:43] <useruser> `Boo`: find ~/Desktop/iTunes -iname '*mp3' -exec cp {} ~/Desktop/music ';'
[05:43] <NickGarvey> igbee: select the partition you want "/" on and make sure thats where it mounts
[05:43] <fr500> igbee: just select the partition to use
[05:44] <igbee> ya i did that but when i select finished the screen pops right back up
[05:44] <`Boo`> ...i cant delete this?
[05:44] <thoreauputic> ian_: sounds like a permission issue - try ls -ld /media
[05:45] <thoreauputic> ian_: should look like
[05:45] <thoreauputic> drwxr-xr-x  10 root root 4096 2006-03-19 01:08 /media
[05:45] <ian_> thoreauputic: sorry, not /media, but ~/media.  still think it's permissions?  nautilus just spins the cursor trying to go in
[05:45] <thoreauputic> ie 755
[05:45] <`Boo`> how do i stop a command while its running?
[05:45] <nalioth> `Boo`: ctrl-c
[05:45] <igbee> Ctrl-c
[05:45] <useruser> `Boo`: control-c to kill it, control-z to suspend it
[05:45] <thoreauputic> ian_: usually it would spit out an error I think ( I don't use nautilus much)
[05:45] <Xenguy> `Boo`: useruser beat me by a mile ;-)
[05:46] <neurosis_> anyone have any idea what this means when your trying to connect to a server and you get..... net: eof!(read) socket 9
[05:46] <`Boo`> cp: cannot create regular file `~/Desktop/My Music': No such file or directory
[05:46] <`Boo`> .     what could that mean?
[05:46] <thoreauputic> ian_: what does   ls -ld ~/media  say?
[05:46] <ian_> thoreauputic: yeah I'm trying to use it fulltime, since I'm advocating linux to non-techies, drinking the coolaid...
[05:46] <thoreauputic> ian_: ah, i see :)
[05:46] <Xenguy> `Boo`: don't use spaces in filenames/dirs
[05:46] <igbee> when i click finished in the partitionar it reopens the manualy edit tables windoew
[05:46] <dmb> is it me, or does mldonkey have a very crappy UI
[05:47] <ged2> ?
[05:47] <Tennessee> Hi all ... I'm trying to install something, and I want to read more about hotplug. I tried installing the hotplug package, but it removed udev and some other important-looking things, so I backed out.
[05:47] <`Boo`> cp: cannot create regular file `~/Desktop/MyMusic': No such file or directory
[05:47] <`Boo`>    same thing.
[05:47] <fr500> dmb: the web interface is good
[05:47] <ian_> thoreauputic: permissions are fine, 755, owned by my user account
[05:47] <useruser> `Boo`: which command generates that error?
[05:47] <`Boo`> find ~/Desktop/iTunes -iname '*mp3' -exec cp {} "~/Desktop/MyMusic" ';'
[05:47] <Xenguy> `Boo`: does ~/Desktop/MyMusic exist?
[05:47] <ian_> thoreauputic: renaming fixes it, so I assume nautilus has some stored settings for it that are broken
[05:47] <thoreauputic> ian_: right - odd behaviour then I agree
[05:47] <`Boo`> yes
[05:47] <thoreauputic> ian_: it isn't a link to a mount point?
[05:48] <neo911> where do i need to put .so shared library so it's visible to all apps im running? thx
[05:48] <thoreauputic> ian_: scratch that - obviously not
[05:48] <useruser> `Boo`: sounds like ~ isn't getting converted correctly. what's the command that generates the error?
[05:48] <dmb> neo911, ?
[05:48] <`Boo`> find ~/Desktop/iTunes -iname '*mp3' -exec cp {} "~/Desktop/MyMusic" ';'
[05:48] <Dr_Willis> neo911,  what library is this? normally you just apt-get install the right lib. and it puts it where it should go.
[05:48] <dmb> you could just copy it to /usr/lib
[05:48] <neo911> Dr_W
[05:48] <Xenguy> `Boo`: find ~/Desktop/iTunes -iname "*mp3" -exec cp {} ~/Desktop/MyMusic \;
[05:48] <ian_> thoreauputic: yeah normal folder.  I looked in gconf and didn't see any settings
[05:48] <neo911> Dr_Willis, libldap-2.3.so.0
[05:49] <`Boo`> working i believe
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> !info libldap
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> hmm
[05:49] <`Boo`> woot thx =D
[05:49] <useruser> `Boo`: the quotes around ~ screw it up, as cp gets sent a literal ~ instead of your home dir
[05:49] <ian_> thoreauputic: interestingly, I can open up ~/media in a tree view from ~/
[05:49] <Xenguy> hehe
[05:49] <neo911> Dr_Willis, its a pckg ive compiled myself and not from synaptic or apt-get
[05:49] <`Boo`> i can do the same thing with .aac and other exts?
[05:49] <dmb> neo911, usually you just do make install
[05:49] <thoreauputic> ian_: weird..
[05:49] <dmb> sudo make install
[05:49] <useruser> `Boo`: sure
[05:50] <dmb> and it should put the libs in the correct place
[05:50] <dmb> (it will probably put them in /usr/local/lib)
[05:50] <`Boo`> how do i change permissions?  cp: cannot create regular file `/home/boo/Desktop/MyMusic/I Fought The Law.mp3': Permission denied
[05:51] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: you still have spaces in the file name - can yo quote that string? ""
[05:51] <ian_> thoreauputic: know where folder-specific settings are stored?
[05:52] <thoreauputic> ian_: what settings? umask should just make all your subdirs in ~ 755 I think
[05:52] <thoreauputic> as ~/media appears to be
[05:53] <useruser> `Boo`: maybe the file already exists?
[05:53] <`Boo`> yep
[05:53] <`Boo`> that was it
[05:53] <Timeline> NickGarvey are you there?
[05:53] <`Boo`> dumb greenday trying to copy johnny cash
[05:53] <useruser> heh
[05:53] <_smd_> dumb greenday...
[05:54] <_smd_> x(
[05:54] <useruser> `Boo`: by the way, you could save disk space by using hard links instead of copying the files...
[05:54] <ian_> thoreauputic: hmm, well a 'killall nautilus' fixed it... unfortunately I don't know why
[05:54] <useruser> `Boo`: just replace cp with ln in the command
[05:55] <nalioth> useruser: hardlinks don't save space, symlinks do
[05:55] <useruser> nalioth: nah, that's not right
[05:55] <NickGarvey> ln
[05:55] <thoreauputic> ian_: hmm - maybe the dir changed and nautilus got confused (that's a really complex technical reason I wouldn't expect you to understand)  *grin*
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> heh.
[05:56] <NickGarvey> to google!
[05:56] <bitox> will ubuntu 6.04 be released with xorg 7 and xgl ?
[05:56] <ian_> thoreauputic: must be it ;)
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> I dont see how it matters. both kinds of links dont make extra copies of the data
[05:57] <nalioth> bitox: it will
[05:57] <thoreauputic> ian_: give nautilus a stern talking to and tell it to straighten up and pay attention (Works for Me (tm) )
[05:57] <thoreauputic> ;)
[05:57] <ian_> thoreauputic: honestly I really like nautilus these days.  5 years ago it was such crap
[05:57] <dmb> tired, going to sleep
[05:57] <thoreauputic> ian_: yeah, it is a lot better than it used to be
[05:58] <fiendskull9> does anyone know if there is a way to skin the panels on gnome?
[05:58] <ian_> thoreauputic: the movie previews, remote folders... it's getting slick
[05:58] <thoreauputic> ian_: I use rox a lot for pictures etc
[05:58] <thoreauputic> ian_: agreed
[05:58] <thoreauputic> ian_: the remote ssh is useful I find
[05:58] <NickGarvey> if I had to guess from what I read useruser is right..
[05:58] <tonyyarusso> ian_: I showed my (Windows-using) roommate the one of the turning-cube workspace switcher, and he was in awe.
[05:58] <Timeline> NickGarvey: are you going to help me with LAMP?
[05:58] <NickGarvey> but I don't have a straight answer
[05:59] <ian_> tonyyarusso: yeah man, bright days ahead :)
[05:59] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso: what program is that? i never have found out how to do the turning cube bit.
[05:59] <NickGarvey> Timeline: yes, I messaged you
[06:00] <Timeline> I replied, did you get it?
[06:00] <NickGarvey> I did not
[06:00] <fiendskull9> what do i use to do the turning cube window switcher?
[06:00] <dmizer> i'm trying to print to a ricoh networked printer, but cups can't see it.  the printer does support raw.
[06:00] <NickGarvey> how did you reply?
[06:01] <ian_> tonyyarusso: meanwhile, Vista is looking more like a trainwreck each day ( http://minimsft.blogspot.com/2006/03/vista-2007-fire-leadership-now.html )
[06:01] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: I'm not sure, it was on the Novell site.
[06:01] <fiendskull9> thanks
[06:01] <tonyyarusso> ian_: That sounds intriguing from the URL...I know it was delayed until 2007.
[06:01] <thoreauputic> ian_: xgl is much better than anything currently on OS-X or Win that I've seen
[06:01] <thoreauputic> but I've only seen the videos
[06:02] <ian_> I wonder if the One Laptop Per Child will make Linux the #1 "desktop" instantly
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> XGl dont work worth a *$&#& for me. :(
[06:02] <ian_> I don't know the number Windows installs
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> ian_,  if Bill gates hates it - im for it!
[06:02] <thoreauputic> Dr_Willis: patience, Grasshopper ;)
[06:02] <NickGarvey> Timeline: so.. lets try in here if you can't PM
[06:02] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso: are u using SuSE or ubuntu?
[06:02] <Alexi5> hello
[06:02] <Alexi5> i would like to know
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> thoreauputic,  it 'looks fine' untll a window scrolls - then the text gets all garbled.
[06:02] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Ubuntu (Breezy).
[06:02] <Timeline> It say I can't PM
[06:03] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Got the link from:
[06:03] <tonyyarusso> !xgl
[06:03] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[06:03] <NickGarvey> register my friend register
[06:03] <NickGarvey> !register
[06:03] <ubotu> somebody said register was 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 :))
[06:03] <Timeline> I thought I did
[06:03] <fiendskull9> damn
[06:03] <thoreauputic> Dr_Willis: it's still a baby - give it a year or so and it will rock I'm sure
[06:03] <NickGarvey> you registered _timeline
[06:03] <NickGarvey> not that name though
[06:03] <Alexi5> i have a 80 GB hard disk and i want to windows and ubuntu on the disk. can you guys tell me the minimum space i need for ubuntu
[06:03] <tonyyarusso> Alexi5: 2.1GB.
[06:03] <NickGarvey> Alexi5: want a desktop or a server install?
[06:03] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso: howd you get it on breezy?
[06:03] <sethk> Alexi5, depends on how much you want to install
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: I didn't get it, just downloaded the movie.
[06:04] <Timeline> ok, done now
[06:04] <fiendskull9> i did 28 gb partition
[06:04] <fiendskull9> tonyyaruso: ohhhhh!
[06:04] <ian_> Dr_Willis: what excites me most about XGL is now what it can do (although that's sweet), it's that it opens the door for evolution in the sexy-desktop market.  OSX is nice, but can people write their own effects?
[06:04] <ian_> Dr_Willis: er now=not
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Yeah, sorry if that was confusing.
[06:04] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso: well i plan to make a small partition for gentoo tonight, because xgl works on gentoo
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Also cool.  Have fun.
[06:04] <Dr_Willis> ian_,  more eye candy for the mass's
[06:05] <ian_> Dr_Willis: eye candy, but hopefully it can add to usability too
[06:05] <NickGarvey> I like candy
[06:05] <Alexi5> NickGarvey: a desktop install
[06:05] <weekang> hey is there any way to install universe packages offline
[06:05] <phrowzen> hey
[06:05] <ian_> Dr_Willis: less CPU usage, smoother everything, subtle hints (like where window go when minimized)
[06:06] <hayden> how can i run a program at boot?
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> ian_,  i dont have any need to know where they go. :p
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> they hide! :p
[06:06] <phrowzen> does anyknow how i might integrate an 'open with' statement that would allow me to add a song to the xmms playlist, so that it would play whenever the current song is over?
[06:06] <weekang> wanna package ubuntu dvd + some universe for friends
[06:06] <phrowzen> i just cant seem to acquire any of the command line features that might let me do it
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  gnome/nautuls has a scripting feature/menu that you could proberly do that.
[06:06] <NickGarvey> Alexi5: not much, I have a lot of stuff installed and I don't even use 4 gigs
[06:07] <thoreauputic> weekang: packages.ubuntu.com - or use the -d switch to apt-get install (download only) and put the stuff on a disc but you'll have to track down the dependencies if you do it that way
[06:07] <fiendskull9> anyone use opera web browser?
[06:07] <phrowzen> Dr_Willis, right, but im pretty sure i would still need the command option to add to playlist correct?
[06:07] <NickGarvey> opera != open source right?
[06:07] <fiendskull9> no its not
[06:07] <thoreauputic> weekang: ah, if you use apt-get -d install it should get the deps too, sorry
[06:07] <Alexi5> so 3 gigs is good then
[06:07] <fiendskull9> it has just recently been released on nix
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  its proberly a command like 'xmms --addtoplaylist foo.mp3' :P from the shell.
[06:07] <fiendskull9> and it used to not be free
[06:07] <fiendskull9> wel
[06:07] <phrowzen> hmm.. hehe
[06:08] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: it is still only "free as in beer"
[06:08] <phrowzen> ill try a --help on it, google told me nothing
[06:08] <phrowzen> thanks
[06:08] <fiendskull9> NickGarvey: try it tonight nick, sudo apt-get install opera. its blazing fast
[06:08] <Alexi5> does ubuntu work well with intel duo processors
[06:09] <NickGarvey> mm I still prefer using open source things when they are available
[06:09] <fiendskull9> NickGarvey: and i have the icon for it if ya want it, its hard to find for a launcher
[06:09] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: You have to have their repo to apt-get it too.
[06:09] <NickGarvey> how do you start a daemon from inetd
[06:09] <thoreauputic> !opera
[06:09] <ubotu> opera is, like, not in the Ubuntu repositories, but you can always download the latest Opera .deb package from http://www.opera.com/download/ and then see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser
[06:09] <fiendskull9> tonyyaruso: its in a few of the default ubuntu breezy repos
[06:09] <phrowzen> Dr_Willis, ok.. the -Q option will enqueue a file, any idea how i might add it to the menu though? i dont think ive seen this scriptping feature/men
[06:10] <fiendskull9> tonyyaruso: since they made it free
[06:10] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: erm, no it isn't
[06:10] <fiendskull9> thoreaputic: i dont have the opera repo, but i still apt-got it
[06:10] <thoreauputic> and it isn't "free" it's just "gratis"
[06:10] <hayden> how can i run apache httpd server if i compiled it from source to /usr/local/
[06:10] <fiendskull9> you know what i mean
[06:10] <fiendskull9> lol
[06:10] <hayden> how can i run apache httpd server if i compiled it from source to /usr/local/ *at boot
[06:11] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: you must have repos other than multiverse/universe/main ....
[06:11] <fiendskull9> hayden: i beleive you can go to System : Administration : services menu, and set httpd to run at boot
[06:11] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: 'apt-cache policy opera'
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  theres some dir you make/add the scripts to.. but i alwyas gotta researchit every time i want to use the feature. Its one of those NEAT ideas that aprently the gnome devs think is too 'complex/hard' for people to use. :(
[06:11] <ian_> hayden: apachectl start
[06:12] <fiendskull9> thoreauputic: yeah, i think i added a few repositories when i got java.
[06:12] <phrowzen> hehe aww puke
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  a cool feature - thats over looked sadly.
[06:12] <phrowzen> alright, ill google some more :)
[06:12] <ian_> hayden: as root.  if it's not in the path then "/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start"
[06:12] <`Boo`> Help! XMMS crashes every time i open it because of a plugin....where can i get help for this
[06:12] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: that would be it then :)
[06:12] <hayden> *at boot
[06:12] <fiendskull9> lol
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  one feature ve not seen in KDE yet. Lol.
[06:12] <fiendskull9> ight
[06:12] <phrowzen> kde blows
[06:12] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: try setting output to "esound"
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  yea sure.. yadda yadda yadds.. :P
[06:12] <phrowzen> ;)
[06:12] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: in xmms
[06:13] <hayden> fiendskull9, is that only if i installed using apt though?
[06:13] <`Boo`> i cant even open it, it closes right when i open it
[06:13] <phrowzen> Dr_Willis, would i have more luck searching by method of gnome, or nautilus? since i am choosing the songs out of nautilus..
[06:13] <fiendskull9> hayden: no, when you compile and make apache, it still is reconized as httpd anywhere
[06:13] <fiendskull9> hayden: itll always be a servce
[06:13] <`Boo`> wow, all of my media players are crashing....rhythmbox is too
[06:14] <jehnx> Is there a way to download a lot of different media decoders at once?  Like, mp3 decoder, mpeg, xvid, etc.?
[06:14] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: what plugin is it complaining about? Try " apt-cache search <name-of-plugin> "
[06:14] <hayden> fiendskull9, you sure about that?
[06:14] <thoreauputic> !eayubuntu
[06:14] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, thoreauputic
[06:14] <Mabus06> How can I login to IRC without exposing my IP address?
[06:14] <thoreauputic> !easyubuntu
[06:14] <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
[06:14] <thoreauputic> Mabus06: hah
[06:14] <thoreauputic> Mabus06: paranoid?
[06:15] <fiendskull9> hayden: try typing sudo service httpd start
[06:15] <Mabus06> Well I've been getting my syslog filled with invalid ssh login attempts up the wazoo
[06:15] <fiendskull9> hayden: see if apache will even run
[06:15] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: ubuntu doesn't use the "service" command
[06:15] <fiendskull9> damnit
[06:15] <cafuego> it has invoke-rc.d
[06:15] <fiendskull9> lol
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  its a nautuls feature. check its menu items. perhaps.
[06:15] <fiendskull9> im so used to fedora
[06:15] <hayden> fiendskull9, yep, and it is running
[06:15] <phrowzen> thx
[06:16] <thoreauputic> Mabus06: then block port 22 except for the IPs you need
[06:16] <hayden> yep=error that thoreauputic got
[06:16] <cafuego> Mabus06: move ssh to port 2222; that'lls top it for now.
[06:16] <fiendskull9> hayden: message NickGayden about this
[06:16] <Mabus06> thoreauputic: either way, when I'm on networks other than freenode I'd like to be able to block my IP address from showing up...
[06:16] <weekang> thoreauputic: thanks man
[06:16] <fiendskull9> hayden: he knows a bit about lamp, more than i do for sure.
[06:16] <NickGarvey> gayden?
[06:16] <phrowzen> Dr_Willis, any idea what flag or variable would represent the file in question? such as.. %D, $1? i have no idea.
[06:16] <fiendskull9> hayden: i hate to say it, but i run microslush on my servers
[06:17] <NickGarvey> that was a big typo heh
[06:17] <NickGarvey> /who is nickgayden
[06:17] <dashnak> Hirvinen_, can someone tell me how to change the owner and permissions of a USB pendrive? I can't do it the "normal" way...
[06:17] <dashnak> Opps
[06:17] <hayden> fiendskull9, :S
[06:17] <phrowzen> oops i got it ;)
[06:17] <dashnak> It was Hi, rather than Hirvinen_
[06:17] <fiendskull9> dashnak: is it formatted to ntfs?
[06:17] <dashnak> No
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  its covered in a big "info requestor" that tells you some info. Its some nasty System variable. First thing i did was make a script - that just used gmessage, and printed out the 'value' of the 4 variables it uses. to see what did what.
[06:18] <phrowzen> ok
[06:18] <fiendskull9> dashnak: so you tryed sudo chmod 777 *pendrive*?
[06:18] <dashnak> Up until today afternoon, my sis was using it with no problem
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  it really could use some 'work' :P lol
[06:18] <dashnak> The hse unmounted it and mounted it agai, and now it said that I was the owner, and the permissions were 700 instead of 777
[06:18] <dashnak> Yes, I tried sudo chmod 777 /media/CORSAIR
[06:19] <dashnak> JUst as I tried sudo chown 'mysis' /media/CORSAIR
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> You dont normally want to (or can) chmod/chown the mountpoint of a file system (ntfs/vfat) that way.
[06:20] <phrowzen> Dr_Willis, woohoo i got ;) it was called 'nautilus-actions' -- used nautilus-actions-config to make the new item.. and then nautilus -q to restart it
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> phrowzen,  lol. there ya go..
[06:21] <dashnak> Any ideas fiendskull9?
[06:21] <mdp_e> hi, anybody successfully using the 0.4.1cvs network-manager package on breezy? nm-applet just hangs for me if started from the command line...and never shows up if started via the session management stuff.
[06:22] <`Boo`> omg
[06:22] <`Boo`> any idea where i can get support for rhythmbox?
[06:22] <eae> Hey, what do I with a .tar.z file?
[06:22] <eae> *.tar.gz
[06:22] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: what's the problem?
[06:23] <Dr_Willis> what do you expect to do with it? :p
[06:23] <`Boo`> rhythmbox keeps crashing when i add media to my library
[06:23] <thoreauputic> eae: depends what it's for :)
[06:23] <`Boo`> it goes most of the way, then crashes
[06:23] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: mp3s?
[06:23] <`Boo`> yes
[06:23] <`Boo`> all mp3s
[06:23] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: have you installed mp3 suport?
[06:23] <thoreauputic> !mp3
[06:23] <ubotu> [mp3]  a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[06:23] <`Boo`> im listening to one right now on rhythmbox
[06:23] <thoreauputic> ^^^
[06:24] <thoreauputic> ah
[06:24] <chad> Whats the command to see running processes
[06:24] <useruser> ps
[06:24] <hayden> ps aux
[06:24] <useruser> or top
[06:24] <chad> thanks
[06:24] <`Boo`> i *think* its crashing on the same file every time.
[06:24] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: rhythmbox sometimes chokes on big directories
[06:25] <`Boo`> really?
[06:25] <`Boo`> should i try it in segments?
[06:25] <useruser> eae: try double-clicking it in nautilus, that usually works
[06:25] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: try moving taht file?
[06:25] <thoreauputic> *that
[06:25] <useruser> eae: otherwise fire up a terminal and use tar zxvf file.tar.gz
[06:25] <eae> How do I register so I whisper?
[06:25] <`Boo`> hold on, let me try it in segments
[06:25] <canllaith> Hi there - in the ubuntu 'Software updates' tool, is there any way I can see from which repository it's pulling the updates?
[06:26] <thoreauputic> canllaith: apt-cache policy <package>
[06:26] <`Boo`> wow, i cant select multiple files with the "add file"
[06:26] <`Boo`> hmmmmm
[06:26] <thoreauputic> or in synaptic
[06:26] <`Boo`> any idea thoreauputic ?
[06:26] <eae> useruser, it says no such file
[06:26] <eae> Should it be in some specific dir?
[06:27] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: you can drag and drop I think - I don't use rhythmbox much
[06:27] <fiendskull9> dashnak: have you talked to NickGarvey?
[06:27] <useruser> eae: you need to cd into the dir containing the file.tar.gz, and you should type the filename instead of file.tar.gz
[06:27] <fiendskull9> dashnak: if he has no idea, then try googling.
[06:27] <eae> I got the second part.
[06:27] <dashnak> Mhhh, no I haven't
[06:27] <`Boo`> crap!
[06:27] <`Boo`> crashed.
[06:27] <dashnak> I'll try now...
[06:27] <eae> What's the dir for desktop?
[06:28] <fiendskull9> eae: /home/Desktop
[06:28] <useruser> eae: ~/Desktop
[06:28] <`Boo`> ~/Desktop  eae
[06:28] <thoreauputic> eae: /home/yourusername/Desktop
[06:28] <eae> Ok, thanks
[06:28] <eae> Hmm
[06:28] <Fed_debian> lrpm
[06:28] <thoreauputic> eae: not capital "D"
[06:28] <NickGarvey> has dashnak msged me?
[06:28] <eae> ok
[06:28] <dashnak> Hi NickGarvey, can you tell me how to change the permissions and owner for a USB pendrive?
[06:28] <thoreauputic> erm "note" capital D
[06:28] <fiendskull9> thoreaputic: yes it is capital, i think
[06:28] <useruser> heh
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> !mount
[06:28] <ubotu> I guess 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
[06:28] <useruser> cd D<tab>
[06:28] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: yes, yet another typo :)
[06:28] <gerald> i plugged in a usb-serial converter, how do I knwo which file in /dev it relates ti?
[06:29] <htrp> anyone program/package that can filter ddos attacks?
[06:29] <useruser> gerald: dmesg|tail will probably mention it
[06:29] <thoreauputic> gerald:  dmesg | tail
[06:29] <NickGarvey> dashnak: man mount
[06:29] <thoreauputic> gerald: should tell you
[06:29] <eae> You sure it's not with a capital D?
[06:29] <`Boo`> AHA! it is a certain file.
[06:29] <useruser> eae: it *is* with a capital D
[06:29] <thoreauputic> eae: my mistake - yes it is D
[06:30] <useruser> cd *sktop
[06:30] <thoreauputic> eae: I typed "not" when I meant "note"
[06:30] <thoreauputic> :)
[06:30] <gerald> thanks
[06:30] <eae> Hehe ok
[06:30] <eae> I can't just right click and click extract herE?
[06:30] <useruser> eae: yeah, probably :)
[06:30] <thoreauputic> eae: you can
[06:30] <fiendskull9> anyone wanna swap SS's of their desktop?
[06:30] <fiendskull9> lol
[06:31] <fiendskull9> my desktop - http://ic1.deviantart.com/fs10/i/2006/081/4/b/Ubuntu_Again_by_fiendskull9.png
[06:31] <dashnak> NickGarvey, I'm not mounting it manually, it's automounting
[06:31] <eae> Ok, it's full of what I believe to be uncompiled C files.
[06:31] <`Boo`> oh crap
[06:31] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: you like balck with white type ?
[06:31] <eae> What then?
[06:31] <thoreauputic> *grin*
[06:31] <useruser> eae: what are you trying to do?
[06:31] <`Boo`> i found the file... wu tang of course, but i opened it and it wont stop :(
[06:31] <fiendskull9> thoreaputic: yes, for chatting.
[06:31] <fiendskull9> oops
[06:31] <fiendskull9> thoreaputic: i dont like black with white type
[06:31] <eae> I'm trying to use this program.
[06:32] <`Boo`> whats the equiv. of control alt delete to close processes
[06:32] <useruser> eae: is it packaged in ubuntu?
[06:32] <eae> I doubt it.
[06:32] <dashnak> The /dev/ it is mapped to, llok extremely wierd and when I try to use it, it says it's not a valid path or something like that....
[06:32] <thoreauputic> eae: it is probably source code that you need to compilke - what is it exactly?
[06:32] <thoreauputic> *compile
[06:32] <useruser> eae: what is the program?
[06:32] <eae> Can I paste the link herE?
[06:32] <eae> *here
[06:32] <useruser> don't see why not
[06:32] <fiendskull9> `Boo`: try getting Automatix, it allows you to make a proscess ender with ctrl alt delete
[06:32] <eae> http://www.monkey.org/~dugsong/fragroute/
[06:32] <thoreauputic> !automatix
[06:32] <ubotu> methinks 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.
[06:32] <`Boo`> is there anything i can use without that?
[06:33] <pvd2006> Man firestarter is acting really weird on me. its trying to block every program I use to connect to the net including my web browser, GAIM connection, etc.. It all started after I tried to allow connections for a torrent
[06:33] <phos-phoros> ss of my desktop...it's a mess as usual :P       http://s45.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=05VIZ40UR1AVO2T3CO30DT957G
[06:33] <eae> Keep in mind that I have no idea what I'm doing.
[06:33] <eae> :)
[06:33] <thoreauputic> don't use automatix, please
[06:33] <thoreauputic> !easyubuntu
[06:33] <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
[06:33] <`Boo`> no!  xine wont stop
[06:33] <eae> Wait, any of those for me>
[06:33] <eae> ?
[06:33] <useruser> eae: seems to be packaged in universe
[06:33] <pvd2006> And firestarter is going crazy blocking like 200 attempts
[06:33] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: in a terminal, " killall xine"
[06:33] <eae> useruser, so then?
[06:34] <`Boo`> i love you
[06:34] <useruser> eae: edit /etc/apt/sources.list and add universe lines, then apt-get update and apt-get install fragroute
[06:34] <useruser> eae: i gotta sleep, but that's the gist of it :)
[06:34] <fiendskull9> phos-phorus: how do you change the panels?
[06:35] <`Boo`> thoreauputic-> do you have any idea how to install windows fonts? i need them for wine
[06:35] <phos-phoros> what panels?
[06:35] <eae> Sweet thanks.
[06:35] <eae> Wait
[06:35] <eae> Add universe lines?
[06:35] <fiendskull9> `Boo`: google, or automatix, or easyubuntu
[06:35] <thoreauputic> `Boo`:  enable multiverse, and install msttcorefonts
[06:36] <thoreauputic> argh - do not recommned automatix!!
[06:36] <fiendskull9> phos-phorus: how did you get the sweet looking panels, in your ss.
[06:36] <babo> Hi guys, I want to run a program in /var/chroot/ that uses my X server ... problem is though, I need to run the program in chroot with 'user' in order for it to use my x server which is running in 'user' ... how do I import my users from   /    into /var/chroot/ ??  so my chroot program can use my X server ?
[06:36] <`Boo`> i already have it.
[06:36] <`Boo`> tahoma maybe?
[06:36] <eae> What does "add universe lines" exactly mean?
[06:36] <fiendskull9> `Boo`: google for tahoma.ttf
[06:36] <phos-phoros> I'm using Glossy P for controls, Graphite as a windows border, and Glass Icons for icons
[06:36] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: automatix has broken many systems, and we have to pick up the pieces
[06:36] <Eleaf> cafuego, ?
[06:36] <`Boo`> what do i do if i find it
[06:37] <fiendskull9> thoreaputic: how do i uninstall automatix?
[06:37] <IamEthos> hey
[06:37] <fiendskull9> `Boo`: google for "installing ttf fonts on linux".
[06:37] <Mabus06> How can I login to IRC without exposing my IP address?
[06:37] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: if you've used it, too late - but fix your /etc/apt/source.list
[06:37] <IamEthos> what is good audio recording and editing software for linux?
[06:37] <IamEthos> is there such a thing?
[06:37] <thoreauputic> IamEthos: audacity
[06:37] <fiendskull9> IamEthos: Audaicty
[06:37] <fiendskull9> yes
[06:38] <fiendskull9> its the best
[06:38] <phos-phoros> fiendskull9, most of the theme I downloaded from http://art.gnome.org/ I believe

[06:38] <fiendskull9> how do i make Opera my default browser?
[06:39] <NickGarvey> !opera
[06:39] <ubotu> methinks opera is not in the Ubuntu repositories, but you can always download the latest Opera .deb package from http://www.opera.com/download/ and then see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser

[06:40] <hayden> anyone know how to start apache at boot (after compiling from source)?
[06:40] <useruser> eae: you probably have lines with the word universe in that file starting with #. remove the # and save
[06:40] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: I've had this nick for two years - I'm kind of stuck with it I think :)

[06:41] <IamEthos> any ideas?
[06:41] <eae> Where does it install?
[06:41] <redwolf> hey, I need to share my printer over samba, but it's flaking out on me.  Can someone help?
[06:41] <eae> As in how do I run it once it's installed?
[06:41] <fiendskull9> IamEthos, just go to the prefrences dialog, and choose the default, and restart it
[06:41] <thoreauputic> fiendskull9: shouldn't make any difference
[06:41] <fiendskull9> IamEthos, it does it to me too
[06:42] <fiendskull9> thoreauputic, so does this show up red to you?

[06:42] <NickGarvey> Fed_debian: what language do you speak?

[06:43] <IamEthos> thoreaupeutic: I would have to disable all system sounds to make it work?

[06:43] <quietas> Here's and interesting issue. Azureus is stuck in some kind of restart loop after doing the auto update
[06:43] <thoreauputic> IamEthos: try disabling beeps for clicks etc
[06:43] <thoreauputic> IamEthos: it doesn't play nice with esound
[06:43] <quietas> It keeps starting new processes like mad

[06:45] <quietas> frank23: I used the Automatix script and it was working fine as 2.3, updated to 2.4.0.2 then needed some SWT thing so it updated that and stuck in the loop
[06:45] <fiendskull9> Does anyone know any good OSX style control themes?
[06:45] <thoreauputic> or sound system?
[06:45] <NickGarvey> fiendskull9: no but I bet google would :P
[06:45] <thoreauputic> quietas: don't use automatix
[06:45] <redwolf> samba, printer issues...yeah, enough to scare any grown man.  I'll ask again anyways.  Can someone help me share my printer over samba?
[06:45] <fiendskull9> NickGarvey, smart ass, lol
[06:46] <thoreauputic> quietas: try easyubuntu if you must
[06:46] <redwolf> fiendskull9: there are lots of aqua-like schemes out there
[06:46] <thoreauputic> !easyubuntu
[06:46] <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

[06:46] <ubotu> well, enlightenment is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79155

[06:46] <quietas> thor: that bad?
[06:46] <Eleaf> Anybody familiar with snmp?
[06:46] <fiendskull9> redwolf, well, i got osx panther styled window borders, but i want the control theme too, ill do google :P
[06:46] <fiendskull9> NickGarvey, have you tried opera yet?
[06:46] <thoreauputic> quietas: we see a lot of breakage from it, yes
[06:46] <redwolf> fiendskull9: kde or gnome?
[06:46] <`Boo`> help, im trying to use Wine, and all i see is boxes for the words in the program im using.
[06:46] <NickGarvey> nope, open source for me fiendskull9

[06:47] <redwolf> fiendskull9: hang on a sec...
[06:47] <quietas> ahh, I'll kill it then and just do it manually. Any idea how to kill a process that keeps changing every second or so. If not I'll jsut reboot

[06:48] <quietas> ian_: ahh, stupid me. Been away from nix too long
[06:48] <thoreauputic> quietas: the problem is that automatix uses dpkg - if you interrupt it all bets are off
[06:48] <fiendskull9> redwolf, bless you my boy
[06:48] <ian_> htrp: those work by overloading the connection TO your box, your box can't really do anything about it
[06:48] <redwolf> fiendskull9: np, check out gnome-look.org if none of those work for ya
[06:48] <thoreauputic> quietas: it also tries to force things, which makes it even worse

[06:55] <AngryElf> when you make install something, how do you find out where it got installed to?
[06:55] <Fed_debian> redwolf, wenko
[06:56] <redwolf> AngryElf: usually it installs to /usr/local, other than that, check the output
[06:56] <wenko[Linux] > yes?
[06:56] <redwolf> Fed_debain: yes?
[06:57] <b0nd38372> I have a question if someone could point me in the approperate direction I'd be happy, Is there a howto, or somwhere I can read about installing vmware in Ubantu?  Linux Newbie, but dang ubantu has converted me almost, with the exception of windows gaming
[06:58] <Fed_debian> hello it asks, single I can connect to Internet via dhcp I cannot put one coneccion of the type 192.168.x chewed 255,255,255,0 Fed_debian somebody sab
[06:58] <fiendskull9> redwolf, dude, check this out! http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=26990
[06:58] <fiendskull9> redwolf, although its a full theme.
[06:58] <redwolf> fiendskull9: sweet, very clean
[06:59] <frank23> !tell b0nd38372 about vmware
[06:59] <redwolf> fiendskull9: you don't have to use the entire theme if you dont' want to, you can mix and match parts if I remember right
[06:59] <cmug> !tell cmug about vmware
[06:59] <quietas> b0nd: Unless it's older games or ones that have linux ports like Quake, dual boot with Windows. Any emulator does graphics poorly
[06:59] <canllaith> cedega isn't bad
[06:59] <thoreauputic> cmug: ubotu doesn't have a factoid for vmware, methinks
[06:59] <eae> I imagine no one is familiar with the program 'fragrouter'?
[07:00] <frank23> cmug: b0nd38372: the bot doesn have info on vmware. the forums definitely have a howto on it though
[07:00] <cmug> apparently not
[07:00] <jesseman_> canllaith, if you expect the same performance in cedega you are badly mistaken
[07:00] <jesseman_> keep that windows install for gaming
[07:00] <cmug> yeah I run vmware on my ubuntu, just thought there might be some additional info
[07:00] <thoreauputic> $ apt-cache search fragrouter
[07:00] <thoreauputic> fragrouter - Test a NIDS by attempting to evade using fragmented packets
[07:00] <canllaith> jesseman_: I use cedega all the time, the performance is adequate on my nvidia card.
[07:00] <jesseman_> canllaith, what games do you play?
[07:00] <eae> Wait, hmh?
[07:00] <thoreauputic> !info fragrouter

[07:00] <redwolf> fiendskull9:eh, I was kinda right...you can mix and match icons and control sets with the theme manager
[07:00] <dragoon> what repo do i need to use to get the kernel source
[07:00] <thoreauputic> eae: it's in universe
[07:01] <quietas> still not up to par needed for WoW/EQ2 or BF2/FEAR
[07:01] <eae> I did apt-get install and it seems to work?
[07:01] <jesseman_> quietas is correct. the bf2 memory leak is atrocious in cedega
[07:01] <canllaith> jesseman_: I play nwn natively, COD and Diablo II (ok, D2 is pretty old) and Warcraft 3 under cedega.
[07:01] <m0rbid> i'm trying to install MOL. installed it and the kernel module but when i try and run it with 'sudo startmol -X' it gives me an error saying that i need to install the correct kernel module... any help getting this to work will be great
[07:01] <`Boo`> quietas-> what were you talking about?
[07:01] <`Boo`> oh, cedega
[07:01] <b0nd38372> My system, pentium D 3ghz, 2 gigs memory, and a 7800 in non sli, would it even be worth trying windows xp in vmware for gaming, or is cedega the better alternative? the only game I really want to run is World Of Warcraft
[07:01] <thoreauputic> eae: then it's installed...
[07:01] <jesseman_> canllaith, i was referring to newer games when i made the statement about cedega being slow
[07:01] <quietas> yup, vmware or cedega, any VM really for gaming

[07:02] <thoreauputic> eae: never used it :)
[07:02] <quietas> bond: I've seen WoW in cedega on a decent system,  it works, barely
[07:02] <m0rbid> thanks
[07:02] <canllaith> b0nd38372: don't use vmware for gaming, just dual boot.
[07:02] <frank23> b0nd38372: vmware doesn support direct X very well. it's pretty much useless for 3d gaming
[07:02] <thoreauputic> eae: try "man fragrouter" or "fragrouter --help"
[07:02] <canllaith> You can always try cedega, on that system it might perform ok
[07:02] <jesseman_> nothing but windows supports directx well .... :(
[07:02] <canllaith> Mine is certainly not as well powered as yours
[07:02] <frank23> b0nd38372: cedega worked very well for me for WoW
[07:02] <redwolf> b0nd38372: you can game with VMWare, but expect a big performance hit
[07:03] <eae> That manual is not very exhaustive
[07:03] <redwolf> b0nd38372: cedega is about the only way to go for directx
[07:03] <IamEthos> I'm getting an error installing Wine
[07:03] <eae> It gives the commands, but not the gist.
[07:03] <redwolf> b0nd38372: last I heard WoW works fine with cedega though
[07:03] <quietas> Atm my hope is that the ATI drivers onb the Mac Books will get decent drivers and we can dual boot OSX/XP with full speeds
[07:03] <thoreauputic> eae: try dpkg -L fragrouter  and see if there are other docs in /usr/share/docs
[07:04] <quietas> redwolf: It does play, but as always slower than the real OS
[07:04] <b0nd38372> I was lucky when I installed Ubantu, all my devices worked from bootup, only thing I dread getting into is kerne mods and what not with installing updated nvidia drivers, etc, you guys are a great help.
[07:04] <thoreauputic> eae: or you might find info on its home page...
[07:04] <schmity> does ubuntu have a DynDNS program?
[07:04] <redwolf> quietas: odd, cedega is emulating system calls, not the system, shouldn't be that bad of a hit
[07:04] <quietas> b0nd: at least you are using Nvidia. They actually support Linux
[07:05] <thoreauputic> schmity: several

[07:09] <thoreauputic> Fed_debian: please don't repeat - and your question is difficult to understand
[07:09] <Hitokiri> redwolf: I think it's 1152x768 if I remember correctly
[07:09] <redwolf> Hitokiri: sounds right....okay, open a terminal window
[07:09] <thoreauputic> schmity: no worries :) Enjoy...
[07:09] <Hitokiri> ok
[07:09] <thoreauputic> Fed_debian: what is your native language?
[07:10] <redwolf> Hitokiri: sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:10] <redwolf> or replace nano -w with your favorite editor
[07:10] <Fed_debian> thoreauputic, spanishSpanish but I do not obtain aid in -es
[07:10] <Adross> upgraded to dapper for testing, and I installed the deskbar applet. It's great, but I use a dark theme, wherein the text is white and the bg is dark grey. Is there anyway to give deskbar a black bg, or make the text in it black?
[07:10] <Hitokiri> ok
[07:10] <joaquin> Hey there, for some reason I cant close game applications. nothing happens when I close window and nothing when I try to end the process
[07:11] <thoreauputic> Fed_debian: ah I see - well your question doesn't quite make sense in English :)
[07:11] <joaquin> tany ideas
[07:11] <redwolf> Hitokiri: go down to the Screen section, near the bottom
[07:11] <redwolf> Hitokiri: you'll see a couple of subsections, with various resolutions on different lines
[07:11] <eae> Why does apt-get install mozilla-firefox only install version 1.07?
[07:11] <Fed_debian> thoreauputic, single I can enter with dhcp Internet
[07:11] <Hitokiri> redwolf: ok found it
[07:12] <thoreauputic> eae: becuse breezy is stable and uses the version that was current on release, with security updates
[07:12] <redwolf> Hitokiri: add "1152x768" (with quotes)  to each of those lines, right before the first resolution listed on each line
[07:12] <thoreauputic> eae: 1.5 will be in dapper
[07:12] <Fed_debian> thoreauputic, if it is that I put an IP nonentrance
[07:12] <eae> in dapper?
[07:12] <redwolf> Hitokiri: make sure there's a space between each resolution, it might get confused otherwise
[07:12] <thoreauputic> Fed_debian: sorry, I still don't understand you
[07:13] <Hitokiri> redwolf: kk, thanks
[07:13] <eae> 1.5 will be in dapper</quote>?
[07:13] <joaquin> any1 know of a way to shut down apps in the terminal?
[07:13] <thoreauputic> eae: correct
[07:13] <eae> What does that mean>
[07:13] <redwolf> Hitokiri: save of course...that doesn't make it automatically get that, it gives you the option in control panels though
[07:13] <dragoon> firefox 1.5 /
[07:13] <dragoon> ?
[07:13] <thoreauputic> joaquin: killall appname
[07:13] <joaquin> thanks
[07:13] <dragoon> joaquin: killlall -9 appname
[07:13] <eae> No, I mean what's dapper?
[07:13] <redwolf> Hitokiri: you may have to restart x first...have fun
[07:14] <dragoon> then next release of ubuntu
[07:14] <eae> Can't I get firefox 1.5 right now?
[07:14] <fyrestrtr> can someone recommend a good gnome-based or compatible music manager that allows you to edit id3 tags? I've tried madman, but its just looks ugly (ie, doesn't take the window decorations of gnome).
[07:14] <thoreauputic> eae: dapper is the upcoming ubuntu release ( 6.06 )
[07:14] <Hitokiri> redwolf: ok, thanks so much for your help ^_^
[07:14] <Fed_debian> thoreauputic, when attempt to put an IP and one chewed of network I cannot be connected to Internet.  but if I can do it by means of dhcp..se it understands?
[07:14] <redwolf> Hitokiri: np
[07:14] <dragoon> fyrestrtr: rhythembox
[07:14] <thoreauputic> !firefox1.5
[07:14] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[07:14] <thoreauputic> eae: ^^^
[07:14] <eae> Ok nvm if it's hard :)
[07:14] <fyrestrtr> dragoon: that one doesn't allow me to edit id3 tags
[07:14] <thoreauputic> :)
[07:14] <ian_> dragoon: that's rhythmbox, but I'm not sure it can edit ID3s...
[07:14] <dragoon> ah, xmms ?
[07:15] <fyrestrtr> problem with xmms is that the the themes work, but the menu is the same blocky non-themed version.
[07:15] <fyrestrtr> don't know why.
[07:15] <fyrestrtr> and its really not a music manager, just a player.
[07:15] <eae> Is there any way I can see all the packets on an unsecure network and intercept them so that they'll be lost?
[07:15] <dragoon> fyrestrtr: itunes in wine ;)
[07:15] <eae> :)
[07:15] <fyrestrtr> lol yeah anything other than that :P
[07:15] <Fed_debian> thoreauputic, when attempt to put an IP and one chewed of network I cannot be connected to Internet.  but if I can do it by means of dhcp..se it understands?
[07:15] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: you can get a sepearate editor for tags - try tagtool
[07:16] <fyrestrtr> thoreauputic: yes, that's what I am getting right now, but I was hoping there was something a bit more integrated.
[07:16] <redwolf> What port does samba use?
[07:16] <thoreauputic> Fed_debian: erm.... sorry I don't understand at all
[07:16] <Fed_debian> thoreauputic, andate a la puta que te pario
[07:17] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: IIRC amarok integrates tag tools - but it's a KDE app of course
[07:17] <Fed_debian> eso entiendes?
[07:17] <eae> Yes/no? Anyway to receive all the packets on a network so that others don't get them?
[07:17] <thoreauputic> Fed_debian: I understood that. Watch your step
[07:17] <Fed_debian> thoffmeyer, anda kagar eso si ke entiendes--adios tarado
[07:18] <fyrestrtr> redwolf: I would imagine the netbios ports
[07:19] <eae> If I have mp3s on my Windows partition, there's no way to access them, yes?
[07:19] <redwolf> fyrestrtr: yeah, think I got it...137-139
[07:19] <redwolf> fyrestrtr: crap, no I don't
[07:20] <fyrestrtr> eae: sure there is, just use samba
[07:20] <eae> Is it complicated?
[07:20] <fyrestrtr> thoreauputic: found it, easytag :)
[07:20] <fyrestrtr> god I love open source.
[07:20] <thoreauputic> eae: partition or separate machine?
[07:20] <eae> Partition.
[07:20] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: :)
[07:20] <fyrestrtr> eae: oh windows *partition*
[07:20] <eae> :)
[07:20] <thoreauputic> eae: you need a line in /etc/fstab
[07:20] <fyrestrtr> eae: just mount the partition somewhere and read the files :)
[07:21] <eae> Detailed instructions please :)
[07:21] <fyrestrtr> eae: mkdir ~/windows-files && sudo mount -t auto /dev/hdb /home/eae/windows-files
[07:21] <alexk> what would you guys recommend as a C++ IDE?
[07:21] <eae> thanks :)
[07:21] <fyrestrtr> eae: /dev/hdb is your windows partition, of course.
[07:22] <fyrestrtr> alexk: Eclipse?
[07:22] <thoreauputic> eae: more likely to be /dev/hda1
[07:22] <eae> Of course. And how to find it out?
[07:22] <MrKeuner> which one is the bot?
[07:22] <thoreauputic> eae:  sudo fdisk -l
[07:22] <fyrestrtr> eae: fdisk -l
[07:22] <alexk> i'll check out the eclipse plugin
[07:22] <MrKeuner> !help
[07:23] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: he needs the sudo, too :)
[07:23] <eae> Ok, hda1 is NTFS
[07:24] <`Boo`> Can anyone help me get TV out working with my x700 pro? Its an svideo out to my TV.
[07:24] <thoreauputic> eae:  if you want it to mount on boot, you'll need a line in /etc/fstab for it
[07:25] <eae> Ok, hold on...
[07:25] <thoreauputic> eae:  sudo mkdir /media/windows  ;  then do sudo gedit /etc/fstab and add at the bottom  line
[07:25] <thoreauputic> /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    auto,ro,users,umask=022       0       0
[07:26] <eae> The previous thing failed
[07:26] <dragoon> gksudo instead of sudo
[07:26] <thoreauputic> eae: ah sorry that line is wrong too
[07:26] <eae> ?!
[07:26] <eae> I'm lost...
[07:26] <thoreauputic> if you make it /media/windows, substitute /media/windows for /media/had1
[07:26] <eae> So what should I do to get the files now and on future boots?
[07:26] <thoreauputic> *hda1
[07:27] <eae> Can you write out the whole command(s) again? :)
[07:27] <thoreauputic> dragoon: strictly speaking gksudo,  yes
[07:27] <thoreauputic> dragoon: nevber had problems in gnome with using sudo though YMMV
[07:27] <`Boo`> sudo rm -f /   rm my mac.com!
[07:27] <dragoon> you need gksudo for X applications
[07:27] <dragoon> so ive been told
[07:28] <dragoon> i just change  my root password
[07:28] <thoreauputic> dragoon: for purity, yers, correct
[07:28] <thoreauputic> *yes
[07:28] <`Boo`> Can anyone help me get TV out working with my x700 pro? Its an svideo out to my TV, or at least tell me where to look?
[07:28] <thoreauputic> eae:  first :   sudo mkdir /media/windows
[07:28] <eae> And no one answered... Is there any way to intercept packets from an unsecure network so that no one else can receive them?
[07:28] <eae> Ok
[07:28] <thoreauputic> eae: then   gksudo /etc/fstab
[07:29] <thoreauputic> eae: addthe line below
[07:29] <dragoon> gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:29] <thoreauputic> /dev/windows       /media/hda1     ntfs    auto,ro,users,umask=022       0       0
[07:29] <thoreauputic> dragoon: yes thanks right again :)
[07:30] <thoreauputic> eae:  gksudo gedit /etc/fstab as dragoon says :)
[07:30] <eae> 19 here :)
[07:30] <dragoon> 15 here :)
[07:30] <thoreauputic> 53 here ;)
[07:30] <thoreauputic> heh
[07:30] <student> hi all
[07:30] <redwolf> 19 <-
[07:30] <dragoon> hi student
[07:30] <`Boo`> Can anyone help me get TV out working with my x700 pro? Its an svideo out to my TV, or at least tell me where to look?
[07:31] <fyrestrtr> `Boo`: stop repeating.
[07:31] <b0nd38372> Hopefully only one more question tonight... Does Ubantu read ntfs partitions by default?  I have a secondary sata drive that was my archive drive, and ubantu is seeing it, but saying ithas no partition.. and during the install I didn't even have ubantu mess with that drive
[07:31] <dragoon> b0nd38372: it reads, just not writes
[07:31] <`Boo`> :( well pls answer or say you dont know then
[07:31] <thoreauputic> b0nd38372: reads yes, writes no
[07:31] <dragoon> and its ubuntu
[07:31] <ian_> `Boo`: should everyone say they don't know?
[07:31] <eae> Do I add the line you pasted into the terminal or the notepad looking window that popped up?
[07:31] <`Boo`> one is fine,
[07:32] <Phlosten> all 626 of us?
[07:32] <dragoon> you can write using captive ntfs, that uses the windows ntfs.sys for writing
[07:32] <ian_> `Boo`: I don't know
[07:32] <b0nd38372> sorry.. ok, guess now I should try and figure out why it's not showing the drive
[07:32] <fyrestrtr> writing to ntfs in Linux is generally not a good idea.
[07:32] <thoreauputic> `Boo`: if no-one answers, chances are good no-one knows :)
[07:32] <sfar-ubu> yea
[07:32] <eae> Guys?
[07:32] <`Boo`> im just making sure no one is typing an extra long response =D
[07:32] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: sudo fdisk -l on the drive
[07:32] <thoreauputic> eae: ?
[07:32] <wenko> anyone know how to install and ftp server on ubuntu
[07:32] <vskye> guys, isn't there something in gnome were ya can just add a mount point and such (as in eae's problem) like in kubuntu / system settings / system administration / disk & filesystems??
[07:32] <redwolf> b0nd38372: for some reason, mine doesn't show by default either, I think you have to manually set up fstab with ntfs...
[07:33] <thoreauputic> eae: ah add it in the editor
[07:33] <`Boo`> is there the equiv. of a "display" menu in ubuntu?
[07:33] <eae> Is it supposed to be blank?
[07:33] <linuxboyfreind> i am trying to connect via wvdial but it is giving error code =4, man pppd says that error code =4 is "The  kernel does not support PPP, for example, the PPP kernel driver is not included or cannot be loaded" how can i solve this problem?
[07:33] <eae> To start with
[07:33] <eae> When it pops upp
[07:33] <wenko> anyone know how to install and ftp server on ubuntu
[07:33] <thoreauputic> eae: gedit should have popped up after you typed your password
[07:33] <sfar-ubu> `Boo`: Well..  you CAN wait.. i think that the person who eventually is typing a long respons finally will press enter
[07:33] <sfar-ubu> then you will know :)
[07:33] <eae> Blank though?
[07:33] <fyrestrtr> wenko: just like you would anything else, using apt-get or synaptic
[07:33] <thoreauputic> eae: erm - wrong file then
[07:33] <dragoon> wenko: apt-get install vsftpd ? :p
[07:33] <thoreauputic> eae:  gksudo /etc/fstab
[07:34] <dragoon> thoreauputic: no
[07:34] <eae> *fstab' (/home/zeroth/'/etc) - gedit
[07:34] <dragoon> gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:34] <eae> That's what the titlebar says
[07:34] <thoreauputic> eae: blast - gedit gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:34] <dragoon> wrong again
[07:34] <dragoon> what i said was correct
[07:34] <fyrestrtr> wenko: sudo apt-get install pure-ftpd pureadmin
[07:34] <thoreauputic> dragoon: I'm just missing stuff in typing today
[07:34] <dragoon> heh fair enough
[07:34] <thoreauputic> dragoon: yup
[07:35] <thoreauputic> eae: pay attention to dragoon :)
[07:35] <linuxboyfreind> can anyone help me about that wvdial error?
[07:35] <eae> I got an error
[07:36] <fyrestrtr> linuxboyfreind: are you using the stock kernel that comes with ubuntu?
[07:36] <thoreauputic> eae: what error?
[07:36] <eae> Something about authentication
[07:36] <eae> Ok, I did it again, but the file appears blank again
[07:36] <linuxboyfreind> fyrestrtr: i upgraded my ubuntu from breezy to dapper and all this happened
[07:36] <thoreauputic> eae: first type   gksudo gedit /etc/fstab   ,  then enter your user password , then edit the file
[07:36] <redwolf> hmm, samba's not working either way for me now, firewall issue maybe?
[07:36] <redwolf> samba uses udp and tcp, right?
[07:37] <thoreauputic> eae: and it can't be blank
[07:37] <eae> And it's not supposed to be blank?
[07:37] <thoreauputic> no
[07:37] <linuxboyfreind> fyrestrtr: i am using kernel came with ubuntu
[07:37] <thoreauputic> eae:   type    cat /etc/fstab
[07:37] <thoreauputic> eae: you should see text fly by
[07:37] <RemyLaptop> !dapper
[07:37] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[07:37] <RemyLaptop> aw :-( sif delay it
[07:37] <`Boo`> are american TVs pal or ntsc?
[07:37] <redwolf> 'Boo': NTSC
[07:38] <eae> not fly by, but I got a few good lines
[07:38] <redwolf> 'Boo': unfortunately
[07:38] <thoreauputic> eae: OK it's there then
[07:38] <thoreauputic> eae: so try again
[07:38] <fiendskull9> redwolf, i got gdesklets running
[07:38] <redwolf> fiendskull9: excellent
[07:38] <thoreauputic> eae:  gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:38] <kuja> Dammit I wish gcj would stop installing.
[07:38] <linuxboyfreind> fyrestrtr: do have any idea, what can i do
[07:38] <fiendskull9> redwolf, its deliscious
[07:38] <eae> It's still empty
[07:39] <kuja> I wish I could just tell apt to not install gcj for any upgrade.
[07:39] <fyrestrtr> linuxboyfreind: don't know, other than to compile a new kernel
[07:39] <thoreauputic> eae: nt possible
[07:39] <thoreauputic> *not
[07:39] <redwolf> fiendskull: memory drain?
[07:39] <eae> The filename seems to be fstab'?
[07:39] <eae> Even though I typed just fstab
[07:39] <thoreauputic> eae: it's the file system table - it can't be empty
[07:39] <thoreauputic> eae:   /etc/fstab
[07:40] <thoreauputic> eae: pasting error ?
[07:40] <linuxboyfreind> fyrestrtr: is there any module which i should load to solve the problem
[07:40] <eae> Writing /etc/fstab gives permission denied
[07:40] <eae> You can paste to terminal? =)
[07:41] <thoreauputic> eae: did you type the whole command?
[07:41] <sagarp> i can't ssh into my own computer from another one...in fact my desktop appeaers to not be accepting any connections even though i'm onilne!!
[07:41] <thoreauputic> eae:   gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:41] <thoreauputic> eae: all of that on one line
[07:41] <fyrestrtr> sagarp: have you started ssh server?
[07:41] <thoreauputic> sagarp: install openssh-server
[07:41] <eae> I got the warning again, but this time it's not empty
[07:42] <thoreauputic> eae: what warning?
[07:42] <eae> (gedit:13805): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[07:42] <eae> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[07:42] <linuxboyfreind> fyrestrtr: ok! leave it, i wanna ask another thing
[07:42] <thoreauputic> eae: erm - gedit is now open though, right?
[07:42] <eae> Now it is, yes
[07:42] <fyrestrtr> linuxboyfreind: I don't know, you can check with lsmod which modules are loaded and running. Never used PPP on Linux.
[07:43] <thoreauputic> eae: with /etc/fstab in it?
[07:43] <eae> Now, yes
[07:43] <thoreauputic> eae: so add the line I told you
[07:43] <sagarp> fyrestrtr, thoreauputic well yeah, i have ssh installed...i use it all the time...i just cant connect or aynthing...i can ssh to myself by ssh [my ip]  on my deskotp but not from anywhere else
[07:43] <eae> which one was correct?
[07:43] <fyrestrtr> sagarp: connect from ubuntu to others, or from others to ubuntu?
[07:44] <thoreauputic> eae:   /dev/hda1       /media/windows     ntfs    noauto,ro,users,umask=022       0       0
[07:44] <Mabus06> How do I sign into IRC without exposing my IP?
[07:44] <eae> Ok
[07:44] <linuxboyfreind> fyrestrtr: i have another pc (which dont have internet connection) i want to install gcc-3.4 in it, is it possible that i take the gcc-3.4 from /var/apt/archieves of this pc and put in that pc and then apt-get install gcc-3.4 in that pc?
[07:44] <sagarp> fyrestrtr: from others to ubuntu
[07:44] <thoreauputic> eae: assuming you made a directory /media/windows
[07:44] <fyrestrtr> Mabus06: join #freenode and ask for a mask, but first, read the instructions at the freenode website.
[07:44] <sagarp> it just randomly started doing that just now
[07:44] <eae> how do I check?
[07:44] <eae> I got a lot of failures before
[07:45] <Mabus06> fyrestrtr: masks are network specific?
[07:45] <fyrestrtr> linuxboyfreind: yes, assuming same versions of gcc
[07:45] <thoreauputic> eae: after you save the file,  type   sudo mount -a
[07:45] <fyrestrtr> Mabus06: unless you use a third party bnc or something, yeah I think so.
[07:45] <thoreauputic> eae: if there are no errors, open /media/windows
[07:45] <linuxboyfreind> fyrestrtr: ok thanks
[07:45] <Mabus06> fyrestrtr: third party bnc? What's that?
[07:45] <fyrestrtr> Mabus06: google 'irc bnc' :)
[07:46] <eae> Open it by doing?
[07:46] <fyrestrtr> linuxboyfreind: you can use rsync to keep both /var/apt/archives in sync so you don't have to keep copying files over 'manually'.
[07:47] <thoreauputic> eae: either in terminal, ls /media/windows , or just navigate to it with the file manager
[07:47] <thoreauputic> eae: you know how to do that yes?
[07:47] <thoreauputic> eae: we are just checking that it contains your windows files
[07:48] <fyrestrtr> eae: before you can open it, you need to make sure its mounted first. Type 'sudo mount /dev/hda1' first at a terminal window.
[07:48] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: I told him to issue  sudo mount -a
[07:48] <fyrestrtr> oh okay then.
[07:48] <eae> Uh...
[07:49] <thoreauputic> either will work of course..
[07:49] <thoreauputic> eae: you saved the file?
[07:49] <eae> yes
[07:49] <thoreauputic> eae: OK well now type   sudo mount -a  to make all partitions mount
[07:50] <vskye> eae: you're running what version of Windows?
[07:50] <eae> XP Pro SP2
[07:50] <fyrestrtr> hrmm, easytag does half of what I want -- still on the hunt for a nice music manager + player that had id3 tag writing support.
[07:50] <thoreauputic> eae: then you can find your files under /media/windows
[07:50] <eae> I see them
[07:50] <eae> :)
[07:50] <thoreauputic> OK it worked
[07:50] <thoreauputic> :)
[07:50] <eae> =)
[07:50] <vskye> eae: ok, then ntfs should be right - congrats!
[07:50] <thoreauputic> eae: it should automount on next boot

[07:50] <eae> thanks mate :)
[07:51] <fyrestrtr> xmms is my favorite if you just want pure music player.
[07:51] <BOING_007> hi..
[07:51] <thoreauputic> eae: beep-media-player is one mp3 player
[07:51] <fiendskull9> how do i make GDesklets run at startup?
[07:51] <vskye> eae: xmms is my choice

[07:51] <ubotu> methinks vlc is a video/audio player that supports almost everything - See http://www.videolan.org/ for more information (VLC is in the repos)
[07:51] <BOING_007> opssss...
[07:51] <IzeyJr> is there a way to copy all files in a dir to another dir?

[07:52] <eae> Does xmms have built in EQ?
[07:52] <vskye> eae: yes
[07:52] <eae> ok
[07:52] <intelikey> IzeyJr cp -R
[07:52] <IzeyJr> at command line with in su
[07:52] <highvoltage> IzeyJr: cp dir /anotherdir -R
[07:52] <thoreauputic> IzeyJr: cp -R /dir1/* /dir2
[07:52] <fiendskull9> how do i make gdesklets run at startup?
[07:52] <IzeyJr> okies not the dir but all files in the dir right?
[07:53] <intelikey> *
[07:53] <thoreauputic> IzeyJr: -R means recursive
[07:53] <IzeyJr> okies thanks alot
[07:53] <fiendskull9> hello?
[07:53] <intelikey> IzeyJr cp * /dest
[07:53] <sfar-ubu> fiendskull9:  system - prefs - sessions
[07:53] <fiendskull9> how do i make gdesklets run at startup?
[07:54] <thoreauputic> IzeyJr: intelikey 's command works if you are in the dir
[07:54] <intelikey> * is all files   (inodes actually)
[07:54] <IzeyJr> okies I'm workin on it
[07:54] <sfar-ubu> fiendskull9:  you just asked that

[07:55] <intelikey> wine is not an emulator
[07:55] <wine> hehe
[07:55] <wine> ^^
[07:55] <intelikey> !ask
[07:55] <intelikey> who mad that so long.....
[07:55] <thoreauputic>   * wine is now known as Chateau Margaux "
[07:56] <wine> i have a problem, i cant get my adsl conection run on boot.
[07:56] <intelikey> !tell wine about ask
[07:56] <wine> im new :/
[07:56] <eae> XMMS freezes everytime I try to play anything
[07:56] <eae> :(
[07:56] <thoreauputic> wine: we guessed ;-)
[07:57] <wine> try beep media player :D
[07:57] <thoreauputic> eae: try setting the output plugin to esound
[07:57] <fyrestrtr> eae: trying to play mp3s?
[07:57] <eae> Yes
[07:57] <intelikey> wine if you have a command that gets you going after boot just insert it in the network script.
[07:57] <eae> What is this:
[07:57] <thoreauputic> xmms does mp3 by default
[07:57] <eae> "libmikmod.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[07:57] <fyrestrtr> eae: did you read the RestrictedFormats wiki entry?
[07:57] <thoreauputic> eae: ah, you need another lib
[07:57] <eae> :)
[07:58] <eae> apt-get install libmikmod.so.2?
[07:58] <thoreauputic> libmikmod2
[07:58] <intelikey> wine in   /etc/init.d/network    just above the  exit 0  command at the bottom.
[07:58] <eae> ok
[07:58] <thoreauputic> eae: get that?
[07:59] <thoreauputic> ah
[07:59] <wine> hmm i'll look at this
[07:59] <wine> 1 sec
[07:59] <thoreauputic> eae: and if it still freezes, try the esound output plugin
[07:59] <fyrestrtr> eae: read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats if you haven't already
[07:59] <intelikey> ohhh destructive formats
[08:00] <eae> No error, but still freezes. XMMS.
[08:00] <eae> The moment I hit play
[08:00] <thoreauputic> eae: try the esound output pluigin
[08:00] <thoreauputic> *plugin
[08:00] <eae> How?
[08:00] <thoreauputic> right click xmms
[08:00] <eae> Thanks for all the help btw guys
[08:01] <thoreauputic> look for output plugin - I think under options
[08:01] <thoreauputic> or something
[08:01] <eae> yes, found it
[08:01] <thoreauputic> :)
[08:02] <b0nd38372> I'm running the 64 bit version 5.10, could / would that be the reason perhaps that i'm not seeing my ntfs partition on my secondary drive?
[08:02] <eae> Works =)
[08:02] <eae> Thanks mate :)
[08:02] <thoreauputic> \O/
[08:02] <thoreauputic> :D
[08:02] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: #ubuntu+1
[08:02] <thoreauputic> no worries
[08:02] <fyrestrtr> oh wait, wrong one.
[08:02] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: no, that would not be the reason.
[08:02] <thoreauputic> eae: whew!
[08:02] <thoreauputic> ;)
[08:02] <Madpilot> fyrestrtr, 5.10 = Breezy Badger, not Dapper - no need for #ubuntu+1
[08:02] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: first step, the drive is detected?
[08:03] <b0nd38372> yes...
[08:03] <fyrestrtr> Madpilot: yes, caught myself there :)
[08:03] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: can you list any partitions on it?
[08:03] <b0nd38372> Shows the drive, shows it with no partition, unformatted..
[08:04] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: how big is the drive?
[08:04] <b0nd38372> i'm using disk under system/administration
[08:04] <wine> intelikey, i dont have /etc/init.d/network
[08:04] <wine> i have intelikey /etc/init.d/networking , is the same?
[08:05] <b0nd38372> 500 gigs, it's on a sata controller as secondary, my primary is a 74 gig thats booting ubuntu
[08:05] <intelikey> yes that
[08:05] <Mischevious> wow, ipod support is better in linux then in windows
[08:05] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: both are on the same sata controller?
[08:05] <Mischevious> that's nice :-)
[08:05] <b0nd38372> yes
[08:05] <wine> ok, so what i must do with this file?
[08:05] <mikebot> this emacs tutorial is /way/ too long
[08:06] <b0nd38372> When I installed ubuntu, I told it to only change the 74 gig, course i dont know if it actually stuck to that request
[08:06] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: hrmm, this is strange.
[08:07] <b0nd38372> but right now it shows up as being totally empty with no partition even assigned
[08:07] <intelikey> wine what is the command that you issue to get your network working ?    put that command in the networking file on the last blank line just above    exit 0   at the bottom and your network should start at boot time.
[08:07] <intelikey> minus any  sudo   of course.
[08:08] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: from the prompt, type sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[08:08] <patrick522> i have a porblem with wine
[08:08] <patrick522> wine client error:47: version mismatch 188/231.
[08:08] <patrick522> Your wineserver binary was not upgraded correctly,
[08:08] <patrick522> or you have an older one somewhere in your PATH.
[08:08] <patrick522> Or maybe the wrong wineserver is still running?
[08:08] <Mischevious> what is it
[08:08] <patrick522> what should i do
[08:08] <Mischevious> try sudo killall wine
[08:08] <Mischevious> first
[08:09] <fiendskull9> I dont think you need to sudo to killall
[08:09] <wine> lol
[08:09] <Mischevious> wine, lol
[08:09] <Mischevious> :-p
[08:09] <b0nd38372> did that.... no output, backto terminal prompt
[08:09] <wine> haha
[08:09] <wine> :P
[08:09] <Mischevious> that's funny
[08:09] <Mischevious> no offense :-P
[08:09] <intelikey> fiendskull9 if root started it you do
[08:09] <wine> ok, np :P
[08:09] <fyrestrtr> b0nd38372: try dmesg | grep sda
[08:09] <patrick522> wine: no process killed
[08:09] <patrick522>  after sudo killall wine
[08:10] <wine> -.-
[08:10] <wine> i need help, this is no funny :P
[08:10] <intelikey> patrick522 but it's wineserver  isn't it
[08:10] <b0nd38372> mind if I paste the output to a prv message window Fyrestrtr, dont wantto spam the channel
[08:11] <intelikey> !paste
[08:11] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[08:11] <fyrestrtr> yeah
[08:11] <patrick522> i dont wat it is i just download the new version of wine throught synaptic
[08:12] <patrick522> now i get this problem what do i do
[08:12] <patrick522> wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system\\dreamweavermxinstaller.exem": Module not found
[08:13] <mikebot> what's the emacs command for new file
[08:15] <fiendskull9> im out guys
[08:15] <fiendskull9> im gonna restart
[08:15] <frantic> hello friends.  I just completed dist-upgrading to dapper drake
[08:15] <fyrestrtr> mikebot: CTRL + C then vi foo.txt
[08:15] <fiendskull9> and think abo-ut installing gentoo
[08:15] <frantic> NO DUDE, DON'T DO IT
[08:15] <fiendskull9> frantic: you kept breezy tho, right?
[08:15] <frantic> no, haha
[08:15] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: sudo apt-get install nvu
[08:15] <fiendskull9> frantic, not a good idea
[08:15] <frantic> dapper drake is awesome so far though
[08:15] <fiendskull9> frantic, its very unstable
[08:16] <fyrestrtr> err, no its not.
[08:16] <FlannelKing> fiendskull9: I haven't had problems
[08:16] <frantic> i'm having zero problems
[08:16] <fyrestrtr> I'm running Gentoo here for a long time, never had issues.
[08:16] <mikebot> yikes, emacs is harder than open office..haha
[08:16] <mikebot> what is latex?
[08:16] <thoreauputic> !start an editor war
[08:16] <ubotu> thoreauputic: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:16] <fiendskull9> The ubuntu site has stated that you should back up your stuff to a new partition before using dapper for day to day operation
[08:16] <frantic> well
[08:16] <fiendskull9> its right now supposed to be used for beta and bug reporting
[08:16] <thoreauputic> aw, ubotu won't play :(
[08:17] <frantic> my home folder is on a seperate partition
[08:17] <mikebot> thoreauputic, hehe
[08:17] <fiendskull9> good
[08:17] <fiendskull9> im out
[08:17] <frantic> so if it freaks out, i can just revert to a fresh install
[08:17] <intelikey> thoreauputic somebody messed up all the good war code
[08:17] <fiendskull9> ill be back tho
[08:17] <FlannelKing> fiendskull9: yeah, but it's not unstable, just not guarenteed that you won't find some odd bug that formats your HD
[08:17] <fyrestrtr> mikebot: latex? that rubbery stuff you use to protect yourself.
[08:17] <mikebot> fyrestrtr, yeah
[08:17] <thoreauputic> intelikey: someone humour-challenged I guess
[08:17] <FlannelKing> mikebot: LaTeX is a markup shindig for printing and stuff.
[08:17] <fiendskull9> redwolf, got everything running nice, but its sucking 300 mb of ram, yikes.
[08:17] <fyrestrtr> mikebot: ooor, a text formatting language.
[08:17] <intelikey> i guess
[08:17] <patrick522> what does that give me Fyrestrtr
[08:18] <intelikey> bout all you get out of the bot anymore is
[08:18] <mikebot> someone told me to use latex, so i got it, and someone else said i had to use somethign like emacs for latex to work
[08:18] <intelikey> !botsnack
[08:18] <ubotu> thanks intelikey :)
[08:18] <mikebot> but i still don't know what it is
[08:18] <frantic> i especially like the up to date mono packages.  I wrote some software for mono on another distro and it didn't work on the old out of date mono of breezy badger
[08:18] <fyrestrtr> mikebot: what are you trying to do?
[08:18] <patrick522> Fyrestrtr: what does that give me
[08:19] <mikebot> fyrestrtr, write stuff with symbols not avaliable in open office
[08:19] <intelikey> mikebot man  is  ya friend    man latex
[08:19] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: dreamweaver, but without the whine of wine.
[08:19] <patrick522> ok
[08:19] <fyrestrtr> mikebot: don't you just need to change the character set? what symbols are you trying to write/
[08:19] <mikebot> fyrestrtr, logical operators not in open office
[08:19] <fyrestrtr> like what?
[08:20] <mikebot> like the slashed out turnstile
[08:21] <fiendskull9> !java
[08:21] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[08:21] <fiendskull9> i think im gonna reinstall ubuntu tonight
[08:21] <fiendskull9> lol
[08:21] <fiendskull9> ive done so much shit to it
[08:21] <fiendskull9> its out of wack
[08:22] <intelikey> yeah i reload twice a weak whether i need to or not.
[08:22] <intelikey> heh

[08:23] <dj-fu> mplayer plays wmv files for me, with the w32codecs package
[08:23] <mikebot> night all
[08:23] <dj-fu> !restrictedformats
[08:23] <ubotu> somebody said restrictedformats was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[08:23] <vskye> patrick522: check out http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/
[08:23] <patrick522> cheers
[08:24] <IzeyJr> patririck522: yeah its a tough one to figure out
[08:24] <intelikey> claps
[08:24] <wine_> i run $sudo pppoeconf
[08:25] <patrick522> got music and other stuff just not wm streams
[08:25] <netsui> how would I be able to use S-video out on ubuntu?
[08:25] <IzeyJr> patrick522: I did get it to play avi's so I'm guessing it found the codecs not sure though
[08:25] <wine_> when the wizard ask me, if i want to start conection at boot time, my answer is YES..
[08:25] <wine_> BUT, it doesn't work
[08:25] <patrick522> welll we will have to keep trying
[08:26] <benplaut> what are ya'll's favorite screenshot sites? not for hosting mine, but for looking at others
[08:26] <benplaut> i need inspiration
[08:26] <wine_> inspiration = pot
[08:26] <wine_> :P
[08:26] <IzeyJr> I'm thinking about doin a source install and see if that does the trick but I am goin to finish watching the show first
[08:26] <intelikey> if you poke to much smot you will piss smell your words
[08:27] <IamEthos> Wine doesn't give me access to NTFS file systems does it?
[08:27] <intelikey> IamEthos no
[08:27] <IamEthos> also, I suppose there's no way to convert a file system, is there?
[08:28] <IamEthos> like from NTFS to Ext3
[08:28] <IamEthos> without destroying data
[08:28] <intelikey> non-destructive conversion   hehhe no
[08:28] <IamEthos> lol, I can dream, can't I?
[08:28] <intelikey> looks like it
[08:28] <IamEthos> intelikey: do you happen to know how I can disable my touchpad?
[08:28] <IamEthos> (i'm using a laptop
[08:29] <Phlosten> IamEthos, if you can create a way you will be very popular
[08:29] <IamEthos> but I find that I accidentally press it while typing too much
[08:29] <dragoon> IamEthos: unplug it :p
[08:29] <dragoon> thats what i did on my vaio
[08:29] <intelikey> no only lappy i have has a ball point    and it's loaned out.   sorry
[08:29] <IamEthos> :-(
[08:29] <IzeyJr> hey is there a dictioinary for command line terms any where out on the net?
[08:29] <Seveas> !cli
[08:29] <ubotu> CLI means Command Line Interface, aka the terminal or console. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands or http://www.linuxcommand.org/ or http://www.tuxfiles.org
[08:30] <Seveas> IzeyJr, --^
[08:30] <IzeyJr> lol
[08:30] <patrick522> Fyrestrtr: it finished what do i do now
[08:30] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: what is finished?
[08:30] <fyrestrtr> IzeyJr: http://www.tldp.org
[08:30] <intelikey> linux command dot orgee    hmmmm
[08:30] <patrick522> Fyrestrtr: the dreamweaver sudo command you gave me
[08:30] <IzeyJr> okies thanks
[08:30] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: now run nvu
[08:31] <fyrestrtr> Applications --> Internet --> Nvu
[08:31] <patrick522> and thats dreamweaver
[08:31] <patrick522> it looks like it
[08:31] <intelikey> IzeyJr one at ts.siliosoft.org too
[08:31] <fyrestrtr> closest thing you can get without installing wine.
[08:32] <patrick522> okz
[08:32] <IzeyJr> okies thanks
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> IamEthos: you can always copy it.
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> but you can't convert.
[08:33] <IzeyJr> too bad I can't do a zoom out on the browser so I can fit it in with the xchat and mplayer lol
[08:34] <patrick522> right can i make hda5 writable
[08:34] <patrick522> as it has my windows stuff on
[08:34] <kingspwned> patrick522, is it ntfs?
[08:34] <intelikey> ntfs ?
[08:34] <patrick522> yep it is ntfs
[08:34] <kingspwned> then dont :)
[08:34] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: if you like your data to be there, then don't make it writeable.
[08:34] <patrick522> ok
[08:34] <fyrestrtr> what do you need to do anyway?
[08:34] <intelikey> not officially.   it can be done but you prolly don't wanna
[08:35] <patrick522> i was just gona make it a storage for both window and ubuntu
[08:35] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: then create a partition that's FAT32
[08:35] <patrick522> but i will leave i might be getting rid of windows anyway
[08:35] <fyrestrtr> linux can write to that without problems.
[08:35] <dj-fu> IamEthos, you can disable your touchpad by commenting out the section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:35] <dj-fu> alternatively, your keyboard may have an accelerator key to disable it
[08:36] <dj-fu> mine is Fn+F7, for example.
[08:36] <dj-fu> Sorry for the delayed response, was in another window.
[08:36] <patrick522> ubuntu is the best os i had since redhat. so im getting rid of windows tonight for good i hope
[08:36] <intelikey> yep FAT is yo friend for da bull doot  folks
[08:37] <IamEthos> how do I comment?
[08:37] <IamEthos> pound signs?
[08:37] <intelikey> #
[08:37] <IamEthos> apostrophes?
[08:37] <IamEthos> k
[08:38] <ic56> on public -
[08:38] <kingspwned> depends on what you're commenting, i would think
[08:38] <negit> new to Ubuntu and linux in general, looking for a way to check system specs
[08:38] <IamEthos> will this take effect with my next boot?
[08:38] <intelikey> IamEthos there are configs that use other comment chars   you should check the specific   but that is the most common comment
[08:38] <ic56> watch Phleagor:#debian
[08:38] <IamEthos> it's all pounds at the top
[08:38] <kingspwned> negit, you could have a look in /proc, some files there tell you a little bit about your system
[08:39] <IamEthos> so I'll assume that that's what it is all the way though
[08:39] <intelikey> what is that xorg.conf  yeah it's  #
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> negit: specs like what?
[08:39] <Seveas> !help
[08:39] <Seveas> @help
[08:39] <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.
[08:39] <IamEthos> I'm a new linux user
[08:39] <negit> kingspwned, thanks ill look........ fyrestrtr , like cpu, mem, hd space, etc
[08:39] <kingspwned> negit: looking at the logs in /var/log can also teach you alot
[08:40] <kingspwned> negit hd space: df -h
[08:40] <intelikey> two bots.... you dirty rascle    :))
[08:40] <IamEthos> but so far my favorite thing about it is how... exact things can be explained
[08:40] <woland_> hi guys. how reliable is upgrading releases using apt? can i do so succesfully or is it best to download the latest image?
[08:40] <IamEthos> in Windows you have to rely on a GUI
[08:40] <IamEthos> which isn't always the same
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> negit: if you want a nice display of that, there are few options. You can get something like gkrellm (a system status monitor)
[08:41] <IamEthos> and even when it is, you still can run into trouble describing things
[08:41] <frank23> negit: I don't know about gnome but in kde there is KInfoCenter
[08:41] <fyrestrtr> negit: or, you can install phpsysinfo (a web application that shows you similar information)
[08:41] <IamEthos> in linux, the terminal is used and you can do most things from a terminal
[08:41] <intelikey> woland_ better to use the install cd judjing from the errors i'v seen in here.
[08:41] <fyrestrtr> negit: or, you can use any number of the watchers to the gnome panel.
[08:41] <kingspwned> woland_, personally i'd rather get the images, but people say it works out nicely
[08:41] <negit> meh, was hoping there was something internal :-/
[08:41] <kingspwned> (most of the time... :)
[08:41] <woland_> negit, ps, top, vmstat. /proc/cpuinfo
[08:42] <IamEthos> saying "type this at a terminal" is a lot more reliable than "look for the little blue button, then click that and look for the red button...."
[08:42] <dj-fu> negit, there is an Applet in the gnome-panel which does what you wants
[08:42] <fyrestrtr> negit: Applications --> System Tools --> System Monitor
[08:42] <kingspwned> IamEthos, true :)
[08:42] <patrick522> why cant i play .wmv files
[08:42] <dj-fu> system monitor.
[08:42] <dj-fu> patrick522, It's a restricted format, see this link
[08:42] <dj-fu> !restrictedformats
[08:42] <ubotu> it has been said that restrictedformats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[08:42] <kingspwned> patrick522, because its a format straight outta hell
[08:42] <dj-fu> install the w32codecs package, that'll help.
[08:42] <kingspwned> almost as bad as .mov
[08:42] <IamEthos> I wish I had a second computer
[08:42] <intelikey> IamEthos you just don't get the whole ubuntu concept do you ????
[08:42] <dj-fu> and then convert it to a friendly format asap ;] 
[08:43] <intelikey> :)
[08:43] <kingspwned> haha, indeed
[08:43] <IamEthos> intelikey?
[08:43] <IamEthos> what concept?
[08:43] <intelikey> "linux for human beinfs"
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> somehow I don't think he means lets hold hands and stand around in a circle ala the logo of ubuntu -- concept.
[08:43] <IamEthos> oh
[08:44] <woland_> "linux for the mentally challeneged"
[08:44] <kingspwned> hahah
[08:44] <mark105> i need a howto on installing a smp kernel as i just added a cpu to my sustem
[08:44] <IamEthos> yeah, that's what I was saying, basically
[08:44] <negit> where i really expected to find all this system information, was in System>>>Administration>>>Device Manager, but it shows everything but the hard drive, as Unknown
[08:44] <intelikey> oh sorry."linux for human beens"
[08:44] <woland_> mark105, install kernel sources and compile in SMP support
[08:44] <kingspwned> if you expect to run any linux distro without going into a terminal, its going to be tough
[08:44] <intelikey> no that's not it either
[08:44] <IamEthos> no, no,
[08:44] <IamEthos> I LIKE the terminal
[08:44] <Chanchao> Oh no, not the slogan again...
[08:45] <IamEthos> I think there should be more terminal
[08:45] <IamEthos> I'm all about the terminal
[08:45] <intelikey> well it some kind of vegi
[08:45] <mark105> woland_: there is no kernel with smp support already?
[08:45] <kingspwned> IamEthos, i am talking to intelikey, i thnk :)
[08:45] <IzeyJr> dj-fu: I installed the win32 codecs and still get errors on streaming : well I didn't install the instructions were to make and copy the files to a dir
[08:45] <IamEthos> oh
[08:45] <frank23> woland_: mark105: no just install the smp kernel in synaptic
[08:45] <Chanchao> There's a new wiki page to submit a new slogan.
[08:45] <woland_> mark105, who knows. i'm a roll your own kinda guy
[08:45] <IamEthos> GUIs are great for doing stuff you know how to do, I think
[08:45] <IamEthos> Terminals are good for learning to do stuff
[08:45] <mark105> whats synaptic?
[08:45] <IamEthos> or complex tasks
[08:45] <dj-fu> jesus
[08:45] <dj-fu> learn to read.
[08:46] <IamEthos> less mouse movements
[08:46] <dj-fu> wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb && sudo dpkg -i w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb
[08:46] <frank23> !tell mark105 about synaptic
[08:46] <fyrestrtr> mark105: System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[08:46] <dj-fu> how hard is that ;|
[08:46] <kingspwned> haha
[08:46] <Chanchao> hard.
[08:46] <Frogzoo> mark105: try this: linux-image-686-smp
[08:46] <dj-fu> Chanchao, I like 'Ubuntu - Free your mind.'
[08:46] <IzeyJr> lol sorry reading a webpage and watching a movie just happen to catch your last enteriy my bad
[08:46] <intelikey> IamEthos or you could do a  sudo apt-get -P remove xserver-xorg   and go commando   :)
[08:46] <dj-fu> there've been quite a few suggestions to that particular bounty
[08:47] <kingspwned> intelikey,only true way
[08:47] <fyrestrtr> Ububtu - Free Yourself
[08:47] <dj-fu> Ubuntu - Hax the gibson
[08:47] <dj-fu> :X
[08:47] <woland_> "ubuntu - mouse operated since 2003"
[08:47] <Chanchao> :)  Looking for the URL of the slogan-wiki page.
[08:47] <fyrestrtr> lol
[08:47] <IamEthos> can you run things like Gaim and FF from a terminal?
[08:47] <dj-fu> it's on launchpad.net, Chanchao - under bounties
[08:47] <mark105> frank23: can run synaptic no gui, this is a server
[08:47] <kingspwned> woland_, you almost sound "gui bitter" :)
[08:47] <negit> woland_, that worked great :D
[08:47] <dj-fu> IamEthos, you can start them from a terminal
[08:47] <fyrestrtr> IamEthos: sure, you can launch them from there.
[08:48] <dj-fu> ^^
[08:48] <negit> heres what i was looking for.........
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> mark105: apt-get :)
[08:48] <negit> processor	: 0
[08:48] <negit> vendor_id	: GenuineIntel
[08:48] <negit> cpu family	: 15
[08:48] <negit> model		: 2

[08:48] <negit> cache size	: 512 KB
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> oh god
[08:48] <dj-fu> !flood
[08:48] <ubotu> flood is probably for pasting, please use http://pastebin.com , http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl or #flood here on freenode.
[08:48] <negit> :p
[08:48] <Frogzoo> negit: pastebin please
[08:48] <intelikey> IamEthos bitchx links and wget
[08:48] <frank23> mark105: sudo apt-get install linux-686-smp
[08:48] <Madpilot> negit, pastebin!
[08:48] <IamEthos> but if I was "going commando" how could they run without a GUI?
[08:48] <negit> erk
[08:48] <kingspwned> IamEthos, i believe there is some sort of program to let you run im's in textmode
[08:48] <woland_> kingspawn, i rarley have need for wm besides web browsing
[08:48] <IamEthos> really?
[08:48] <IamEthos> that'd be uncomfortable
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> kingspwned: there sure is, I've used it before on my server.
[08:48] <patrick522> when i try and ftp the place to get the w32codec it comes up with this   No such file `w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.ded'.
[08:48] <kingspwned> woland_, me neither. wish w3m was just a little bit better, and i'd be off
[08:49] <kingspwned> patrick522, try ending with .deb
[08:49] <Madpilot> patrick522, .deb, not .ded
[08:49] <intelikey> negit what are you doing seeing whos dog can bark the loudest ?
[08:49] <dj-fu> ==> PASV ... done.    ==> RETR w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb ... done.
[08:49] <patrick522> still no file with .deb at the end
[08:49] <dj-fu> yes, ti's there, I just tested it.
[08:49] <dj-fu> copy paste, don't be a tard
[08:50] <frank23> !tell patrick522 about w32codecs
[08:50] <dj-fu> already did frank23
[08:50] <dj-fu> he's pretty dense
[08:50] <dj-fu> time to go back to windaz imho
[08:50] <kingspwned> liberatingly free spirited mood here now
[08:50] <Madpilot> dj-fu, be polite, please...
[08:50] <dj-fu> Madpilot, That was polite.
[08:50] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[08:50] <intelikey> netman1 well yours may be faster than mine, but i bet mines slower than yours!   so there.
[08:51] <Madpilot> dj-fu, no, it was not.
[08:51] <dj-fu> right, afk
[08:51] <fyrestrtr> IamEthos: centericq is a cli-only multi-network chat program
[08:51] <Chanchao> Here you go, the next Ubuntu Slogan gets decided here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SloganIdeas
[08:51] <patrick522> this is the right code yeh     wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb
[08:51] <patrick522>   sudo dpkg -i w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb
[08:51] <intelikey> well wrong nick.  sorry.
[08:51] <Chanchao> Down with "Linux for human beings".    Ubuntu is bigger than Linux, and not limited to human beings.
[08:52] <thoreauputic> Chanchao: "Linux for Gentoo Refugees" ? *grin*
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: type it one line at a time, not all at once.
[08:52] <Chanchao> LOL
[08:52] <patrick522> i did
[08:52] <mite> bigger than linux? how does that mak sense. its based on debian linux.
[08:52] <intelikey> Ubuntu is bigger ????     errr linux is bigger than ubuntu maybe.
[08:52] <mite> its like debian linux with a helpful app installer.
[08:52] <equador> hi, how i can install tcl with apt ?
[08:52] <kingspwned> mite, if sense is what you're looking for... ;)
[08:52] <frank23> Chanchao: Ubuntu bigger than linux? talk about offending every other linux user
[08:52] <patrick522> after this ==> PASV ... done.    ==> RETR w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb ...
[08:52] <Chanchao> Linux = kernel software.  Just a part really.
[08:53] <intelikey> equador sudo apt-get install tcl
[08:53] <kingspwned> patrick522, then you do the line that starts with "sudo..."
[08:53] <fyrestrtr> equador: ubuntu comes with tcl 8.4
[08:53] <patrick522> this comes after the line i just wrote     No such file `w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.ded'.
[08:54] <intelikey> yeah tcl8.4  or some version
[08:54] <frank23> Chanchao: most people use linux for GNU/Linux yeah...
[08:54] <fyrestrtr> its .deb damn it! .deb!!!
[08:54] <equador> requires Tcl to compile. Me write this error when i try compile
[08:54] <kingspwned> patrick522, for the last time, .deb, not .ded
[08:54] <Hobbsee> LOL @ fyrestrtr
[08:54] <equador> when i write sudo apt-get install tcl, i get error
[08:54] <Hobbsee> you're creating a new packaging system?
[08:54] <patrick522> it changes when i paste it
[08:54] <fyrestrtr> equador: you probably need to install the development libraries try sudo apt-get install tcl8.4-dev
[08:54] <intelikey> equador did you install b-e ?
[08:54] <Mikch> Mikch
[08:54] <Chanchao> Give it a year or two and Linux and Ubuntu will be synonymous.
[08:55] <kingspwned> haha
[08:55] <equador> what is mean b-e
[08:55] <equador> ?
[08:55] <Chanchao> But Ubuntu is a cooler word.
[08:55] <intelikey> !b-e
[08:55] <ubotu> b-e is, like, 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.
[08:55] <kingspwned> i am going to create a new packaging system - .dud
[08:55] <thoreauputic> Hobbsee: the Zombie packaging system - hence the .ded suffix ;)
[08:55] <Hobbsee> hehe!
[08:55] <frank23> Chanchao: I agree that Ubuntu has amazing potential. Gentoo won't die off though ;)
[08:55] <Chanchao> .rpg packaging.
[08:55] <equador> intelikey, i dont install b-e
[08:55] <equador> :/
[08:55] <fyrestrtr> who started comparing ubuntu with gentoo?
[08:55] <chris__> I have a python file that is opening up as a text file. what is the command to make this executable instead?
[08:55] <patrick522> after this ==> PASV ... done.    ==> RETR w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb ... then this comes just after
[08:55] <fyrestrtr> chris__: chmod +x file.py
[08:55] <patrick522> this comes after the line i just wrote     No such file `w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb
[08:56] <intelikey> jou got too
[08:56] <chris__> thanks!
[08:56] <fyrestrtr> chris__: or, just type python file.py
[08:56] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: what line you just wrote?
[08:56] <IzeyJr> patrick522: did you unpack it or DL it?
[08:56] <fyrestrtr> chris__: does it open up when you double click it?
[08:56] <dj-fu> patrick522, just type this copy and paste this exactly "wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb"
[08:56] <dj-fu> it'll download, it's about 15mB
[08:56] <thoreauputic> patrick522: looks like it isn't on the server you tried to d/l from
[08:57] <dj-fu> It's there, I just tested.
[08:57] <IzeyJr> yeah it is I just got it
[08:57] <kingspwned> dj-fu; you're not a quitter, heh ;)
[08:57] <thoreauputic> OK
[08:57] <hayden> is there an easy way of setting permissions for a public_html folder so i dont have to change them each time a add a new file?
[08:57] <dj-fu> kingspawn, I'm trying. To change the world, we have to change individual users. This is a place for that to happen
[08:57] <patrick522> i cant paste in a terminal
[08:57] <intelikey> i'm a quitter
[08:57] <dj-fu> the nicer we are, the sooner we are to world domination.
[08:57] <IzeyJr> I unpacked it the first time becuz I'm a newb
[08:57] <thoreauputic> patrick522: sure you can'
[08:57] <kingspwned> dj-fu, aiming high, i see :)
[08:57] <dj-fu> patrick522, rightclick > paste
[08:57] <intelikey> patrick522 why not ?
[08:57] <fyrestrtr> hayden: change the group to the apache group, that should fix the problems.
[08:57] <Frogzoo> patrick522: middle button
[08:57] <dj-fu> kingspawn, this is the future of linux we're talking about, remember.
[08:58] <patrick522> wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb this worked
[08:58] <hayden> fyrestrtr, ahh tahnks
[08:58] <kingspwned> hehe
[08:58] <intelikey> or shift both buttons.
[08:58] <dj-fu> patrick522, Tell me when it's downloaded.
[08:58] <patrick522> ok
[08:58] <chris__> fyrestrtr - it opens up as a text file in gedit
[08:58] <Frogzoo> dj-fu: the future of linux is x-box 3 beowulf clusters :)
[08:58] <dj-fu> yawn @ xbox
[08:58] <equador> ERROR: Unable to find Tcl on this system
[08:58] <equador> , what i must do
[08:58] <equador> :/
[08:58] <intelikey> i copy and paste in console.
[08:58] <fyrestrtr> chris__: that's because python programs are plain text files.
[08:59] <hayden> fyrestrtr, there is not apache group :S
[08:59] <fyrestrtr> chris__: just type python file.py to run the program (type it in a console)
[08:59] <IzeyJr> oh noes it just failed when I tried to just DL it
[08:59] <fyrestrtr> hayden: or httpd or whatever its called.
[08:59] <patrick522> dj-fu: downloaded and save
[08:59] <dj-fu> patrick522, right, type this "sudo dpkg -i w32codecs_20050412-0.0_i386.deb"
[08:59] <equador> how set environment variables TCLLIB
[08:59] <equador> and TCLINC ?
[08:59] <Fracture> what IDE if any do ubuntu people use for python/gtk dev ?
[08:59] <hayden> fyrestrtr, or httpd
[08:59] <dj-fu> gEdit, for python
[08:59] <dj-fu> :P
[09:00] <fyrestrtr> hayden: www-data maybe
[09:00] <patrick522> then wat
[09:00] <hayden> fyrestrtr, nope
[09:00] <dj-fu> patrick522, that's it, restart your player (mplayer or xine) and then open your wmv file
[09:00] <kingspwned> equador, export VARIABLE=VALUE
[09:00] <dj-fu> it *should* play :P
[09:00] <venky> all here r ubuntu fans?
[09:00] <fyrestrtr> Fracture: Komodo (if you don't mind paying). Free stuff includes Eclipse with proper plugins, or cream if you are vi fan like me :D
[09:00] <Fracture> yes
[09:00] <equador> kingspawn, but how ?
[09:00] <venky> cool
[09:00] <dj-fu> yeah - Eclipse is very nice
[09:00] <fyrestrtr> hayden: do you even *have* apache installed?
[09:00] <venky> iam new to it
[09:00] <patrick522> wow it worked cheers for all you help i will now go document it for later
[09:00] <Frogzoo> venky: we're actually all closet Redmon zealots
[09:01] <intelikey> equador install tcllib
[09:01] <dj-fu> patrick522, Not a problem, have fun.
[09:01] <Fracture> fyrestrtr: what are the propper plugins for eclipse ?  I use eclipse daily for java dev (day job)
[09:01] <Chanchao> venky: It is the ubuntu forum... presumably most people here like it. :)
[09:01] <intelikey> equador sudo apt-get install tcllib
[09:01] <dj-fu> Fracture, eclipse-cdt (C dev tools)
[09:01] <fyrestrtr> Fracture: there is a great python plugin for it.
[09:01] <Chanchao> I do anyway.
[09:01] <venky> i just installed uuntu on my external usb hard drive
[09:01] <dj-fu> apt-cache search eclipse-*
[09:01] <chris__> fyrestrtr - hmm chmod +x bittorrent.py didnt help and running bittorrent.py says not known command
[09:01] <kingspwned> equador, trying to compile eggdrop?
[09:01] <Fracture> dj-fu: sorry, i'm talking about python-gtk dev
[09:01] <equador> kingspawn, yes
[09:01] <equador> ;)
[09:01] <Chanchao> Venky: ah.  And does it boot? :)
[09:01] <kingspwned> chris__, ./bittorrent.py
[09:01] <venky> yup
[09:02] <venky> iam using that currently
[09:02] <Chanchao> Venky: Excellent!!   I find that a lot of different comptuters boot USB drives differently, if at all. It doesn't always work.
[09:02] <venky> used automatix to download lots of application
[09:02] <equador> why i get this error ERROR: Unable to find Tcl on this system
[09:02] <hayden> fyrestrtr, actually scratch that, i was looking in accounts + users under the admin menu, there is a www-data user but it doesnt show up there
[09:02] <venky> i think its all set
[09:02] <venky> but i dont know jack abt linux
[09:02] <equador> i try apt-get install tcl, and tcl libs and much more
[09:02] <equador> :/
[09:02] <chris__> kingspwned - thanks that works
[09:03] <venky> well i have a dell 600m and an 8600
[09:03] <Chanchao> Venky: That's good too...  A lot of the essential stuff needed to play mp3 and mpeg video and all those is not installed by default... legal issues...
[09:03] <venky> it boots on both
[09:03] <kingspwned> equador, do you have synaptic? or try apt-cache search tcl
[09:03] <venky> but 700m laptop doesnt
[09:03] <Chanchao> Yeah, worked on Dell computers for me too.
[09:03] <intelikey> why does python and perl have to be installed.   it says it will remove everything to remove either of them.
[09:03] <intelikey> ?
[09:04] <patrick522> im just having probs playin with .wma files now
[09:04] <Kovecses> what ubuntu user doesnt have synaptic?
[09:04] <frank23> intelikey: some essential programs depend on them
[09:04] <kingspwned> intelikey, they dont _have_ to be installed, no, but i guess its recommended
[09:04] <equador> kingspawn, i have synaptic, no i dont triyng search tcl
[09:04] <kingspwned> Kovecses, the ones doing a server install
[09:04] <venky> but i am not ablr to install gaim 2 beta
[09:04] <Kovecses> kingspwned: well then they should def know about apt-get
[09:04] <venky> i mean i dont know how to install stuff here
[09:04] <Chanchao> Patrick552: CHeck the 'Restricted FOrmats' with info on how to download codecs for that.
[09:05] <equador> when i search, i get a big list of libs..
[09:05] <Chanchao> (Google 'ubuntu restricted formats')
[09:05] <Dr|J> !*! How do I set a static IP ? !*!
[09:05] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Dr|J
[09:05] <equador> how i can know, what i must install
[09:05] <intelikey> kingspwned don't have to be ?  as in you can remove the kernel and bash and all other linux stuff and it will be ok     hehhe
[09:05] <kingspwned> equador: try the one looking the most like "tcllib"
[09:05] <Kovecses> im now in love with IceWM
[09:05] <Frogzoo> venky: if you can't get a beta to install - I doubt you should be playing with betas - my 2c
[09:05] <kingspwned> intelikey, of course you can!
[09:05] <Chanchao> DrJ : System->Administration->Networking. THen change from DHCP to static.
[09:05] <fyrestrtr> Dr|J: System -> Administration -> Networking
[09:05] <venky> well its all for fun
[09:05] <Dr|J> thanx
[09:05] <venky> so i dont care if it all crashes
[09:06] <intelikey> you very funny man kingspwned
[09:06] <venky> i dont know how it automatically detected my wireless
[09:06] <venky> so i am already amazed
[09:06] <Chanchao> Drj: On the Dapper live CD preview it's a bit weird though.   Just do it slow, and give it time before hitting 'Ok'
[09:06] <Frogzoo> venky: betas can mess up your system, even if you know what your'e doing
[09:06] <frank23> venky: some cards are detected just like that. not all, so were lucky ;)
[09:06] <fyrestrtr> equador: sudo apt-get install tcl8.4 tcl8.4-dev
[09:06] <equador> fyrestrtr, ok thx
[09:06] <Kovecses> pokerroom.com everyone
[09:06] <fyrestrtr> venky: magic :)
[09:06] <Dr|J> ok Chanchao
[09:07] <venky> well guys u shud tell me how to install it
[09:07] <Kovecses> venky: install what
[09:07] <equador> mhm, i have this libs.
[09:07] <equador> tcl8.4 tcl8.4-dev i have
[09:07] <venky> gaim 2 beta
[09:07] <intelikey> fyrestrtr it was asking for tcllibs  which i already told equador how to install.
[09:07] <Chanchao> BTW, does anyone know how to recieve a file using Bluetooth?  I can see 'ubuntu'
[09:08] <Chanchao> [on Bluetooth]  but cannot connect to send a filel
[09:08] <Kovecses> venky: why isnt it installing?
[09:08] <venky> well coz i dont know how to install from a tar.gz
[09:08] <tonyyarusso> My Trash applet in Gnome is confused, and thinks it has something in it when it's been emptied.
[09:09] <Kovecses> venky: oh.... well that means you need to compile from source
[09:09] <venky> ya
[09:09] <Frogzoo> firefox (1.5) has started being a pain - takes about a minute for the window to appear after launched, what gives?
[09:09] <frank23> !tell venky about compile
[09:09] <venky> but i have no idea..i extracted it to my desktop
[09:09] <intelikey> cool tonyyarusso :)  another bug in gnome "the perfect desktop"  lol
[09:09] <Kovecses> venky: sudo apt-get install build essential
[09:09] <chici> haiii
[09:09] <frank23> venky: yeah if you want newer program versions than what is in ubuntu, you often have to compile
[09:10] <altos> hi all
[09:10] <tonyyarusso> intelikey: I guess.  I still like it though.
[09:10] <Frogzoo> frank23: or just wait for dapper...
[09:10] <_Rappy_> Morning all! I'm trying to play this video http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=9357&type=mov (Huxley, new 360 game) but all I can get is that Totem could not play due to missing plugins. Can anyone tell me which plugis to get?
[09:10] <Kovecses> _Rappy_: w32codecs
[09:11] <Kovecses> venky: then untar the gaim file
[09:11] <altos> i've got a question on installing ubuntu on my vaio. After copying packages to disk, rebooting and starting to install them it hangs
[09:11] <venky> ok then can u tell me stepwise what to do
[09:11] <intelikey> k sorry i had to laugh at that.   it's just how gnome zelous people in here can be sometimes.    did you  ls -A  the trash to make sure there wasnt a hiden file in it ?
[09:11] <intelikey> @ tonyyarusso
[09:11] <Kovecses> venky: i am
[09:11] <frank23> venky: did you see the link sent by ubotu?
[09:12] <Kovecses> venky: i would just use gaim that comes with ubuntu imho
[09:12] <tonyyarusso> intelikey: Yeah, nothing.
[09:12] <venky> well i did
[09:12] <venky> but i see some errors
[09:13] <intelikey> well you can prolly fix it by cycling the gui tonyyarusso
[09:13] <venky> lol but man i just want to use the beta its better...
[09:13] <venky> why dont u guys just let me screw with it..;)
[09:13] <altos> could someone help me with installing ubuntu on vaio, please?
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> intelikey: Removed from panel and re-added, now it's fine.
[09:13] <Frogzoo> venky: because once you bust it, we rightly suspect you'll be back here asking how to fix it
[09:13] <equador> downloading all tcl libs and tols... if after dont works
[09:14] <Kovecses> venky: what is the error
[09:14] <equador> when what i should do
[09:14] <equador> ?
[09:14] <intelikey> wenky use it.   i won't bother me.
[09:14] <fiendskull9> yo
[09:14] <fiendskull9> !multiverse
[09:14] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[09:14] <venky> well what to do first after i have extracted it to desktop
[09:15] <intelikey> wenky use it.   i won't bother me.  :)
[09:15] <intelikey> i'm not stopping you.
[09:15] <Chanchao> Altos: Should be no different from any other install... Have you tried it?
[09:15] <Kovecses> venky: cd to that directory
[09:15] <zF> Does the Pentium M support the i686 linux-image?
[09:15] <venky> no but i need help
[09:15] <venky> ok wait
[09:15] <fyrestrtr> zF: yes
[09:15] <hayden> fyrestrtr, i made www-data the owner of public_html, but now i can't save files there unless im root?
[09:15] <Frogzoo> zF: if it doesn't, I'm in trouble ;)
[09:15] <altos> chanchao: i've been trying to install it for 2 days...
[09:15] <fyrestrtr> hayden: add yourself to the www-data group
[09:16] <zF> Why is my system by defualt using the i386 linux-image?
[09:16] <tonyyarusso> zF: Sure looks like it, or I'm going to have some serious issu-ohp...aack!  j/k
[09:16] <Matthewv> hayden, change the permissions of public_html
[09:16] <altos> chanchao: after coping packages on disk and rebooting it starts to finish installing packages
[09:16] <frank23> zF: that's what ubuntu installs for everyone
[09:16] <Frogzoo> zF: that's the base install
[09:16] <venky> ok iam now in the directory
[09:16] <Frogzoo> zF: but definately upgrade to 686 - well worth the performance gains
[09:16] <frank23> venky: install build-essential if you didn't already
[09:17] <intelikey> oh  you mean you want us to hold your hand while you try to do something that we know you don't know how to do and it probably wont work after we spend 9 hours of helping you wenky       count me out.  but use it all you like we don't care one bit.
[09:17] <altos> chanchao: and then it fishishes with some dump... or hangs up somewhere on 72%
[09:17] <venky> no i didnt but whats the command to run
[09:17] <zF> Frogzoo, if I just install the i686 image and the 2.6.15-19-686, will Ubuntu automatically know to use that?
[09:17] <venky> can u put it in quotes
[09:17] <Kovecses> zF: all ubuntu users start with i386
[09:17] <Kovecses> zF: except amd64 and such
[09:18] <zF> Frogzoo, how much of a gain is there for using an optimized kernel for your cpu architecture?
[09:18] <frank23> venky: you should read a bunch of stuff in the wiki to learn all of this.
[09:18] <zF> Kovecses, I see.
[09:18] <venky> hmm
[09:18] <intelikey> zf  not much really.
[09:18] <venky> but cant u tell me here
[09:18] <Chanchao> Altos: Ouch...
[09:18] <venky> i mean its a little long process i will get to it sometime
[09:18] <Kovecses> zF: as far a performance goes... the only reason i see to use an i686 kernel is for if you have over a gig of ram...
[09:19] <Kovecses> venky: its not long at all
[09:19] <zF> Frogzoo, if I just install the i686 image and the 2.6.15-19-686, will Ubuntu automatically know to use that?
[09:19] <venky> well it saus too few arguments
[09:19] <altos> Chanchao: and after rebooting i a message that some of the packages failed to install due to unknown problem (i don't run out of disk space)... and i get just a console
[09:19] <Chanchao> Altos: Perhaps try the Live CD preview first.   The upcoming release (preview available) will install to disk straight from the live CD>
[09:19] <Kovecses> zF: it should
[09:19] <zF> Kovecses, thanks.
[09:19] <zF> Kovecses, I have a question - kind of a weird one.
[09:19] <Kovecses> venky: what does?
[09:19] <Kovecses> zF: ok
[09:20] <zF> Kovecses, why do "advanced" gun/linux users use Ubuntu?
[09:20] <Chanchao> ALtos: Google for "Ubuntu dapper live CD flight 5"
[09:20] <zF> gnu*
[09:20] <fiendskull9> !java
[09:20] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[09:20] <Chanchao> If it boots up and runs then it really should also install to your drive properly.
[09:20] <Kovecses> zF: no idea.... i use gentoo myself but help out around here when i can
[09:20] <kingspwned> zF, even advanced users have desktop machines, and ubuntu makes a nice one
[09:20] <Chanchao> There's an icon on the desktop to install
[09:20] <altos> Chanchao: i'll try right now... thanks
[09:20] <venky> "install build-essential"
[09:21] <Chanchao> And on boot it has an option to check the CD for errors.
[09:21] <_Rappy_> Kovecses : I got all possible repositories added, do I ahve to look somewhere else for the w32 codecs?
[09:21] <intelikey> Chanchao boot's run's and finds the hdd ok....
[09:21] <Chanchao> It's much nicer overall too.
[09:21] <Kovecses> _Rappy_: yeah seveas's repos
[09:21] <frank23> venky: sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall      sudo apt-get build-dep gaim      ./configure     make      sudo checkinstall         should basicaly do it.
[09:21] <Frogzoo> !tell raphael about w32
[09:21] <kingspwned> venky; with ; as separators! - or rather &&
[09:21] <frank23> venky: don't blame me if something goes wrong though
[09:22] <zF> Kovecses, that's pretty cool of you.
[09:22] <Frogzoo> !tell _Rappy_ about w32codec
[09:22] <Kovecses> zF: thank you
[09:22] <_Rappy_> tnx guys
[09:22] <venky> ya well i dont understand well later guys
[09:22] <zF> Kovecses, but it's very humorous to me that I asked that, and you use gentoo :x
[09:22] <zF> Kovecses, I tried installing gentoo after using Ubuntu for 5 or so months, but I got my ass kicked. :(
[09:23] <intelikey> frank23 if rather than      space you would have used && it would have been copy and paste this command......
[09:23] <Kovecses> zF: but i think Ubuntu is a great OS
[09:23] <frank23> intelikey: yeah but what if something goes wrong?
[09:23] <altos> Chanchao: so i can download live cd and install from it, right?
[09:23] <zF> Started with the minimal install, then tried the Stage with the emerege snapshot. Once I spent an hour selecting all the programs and configuring the rest of the make install, I clicked "install" to finalize everything
[09:23] <intelikey> && will only do the next if the former exits 0
[09:24] <zF> and it spat out "Set root password" then sat for 30 minutes doing nothing. :(
[09:24] <VeldorzVizzerd> hey, I am new to ubuntu and have just installed it, I can't access the root account, can anyone here help me out?
[09:24] <kingspwned> intelikey, exactly
[09:24] <Kovecses> zF: the gui install sucks ...... it isnt meant for first time users
[09:24] <frank23> did I scare him?
[09:24] <phrizer> VeldorzVizzerd, use sudo.
[09:24] <VeldorzVizzerd> sudo?
[09:24] <Gareth> VeldorzVizzerd: root isn't enabled by default, use sudo instead of su
[09:24] <intelikey> !root
[09:24] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[09:24] <Chanchao> Altos: Yes.  Can install from live CD.  I haven't tried it yet though. :)
[09:24] <Gareth> or if you really want root, use sudo passwd and set the root pass
[09:25] <frank23> Kovecses: yeah I know...  the gui basically assumes you know how to install gentoo without it
[09:25] <phrizer> VeldorzVizzerd, using root can be dangerous, if you just want to execute a few commands as root, use sudo
[09:25] <VeldorzVizzerd> okay, will check it out, thanks gareth
[09:25] <Gareth> yeah, take note of what phrizer said
[09:25] <Dr|J> i setup samba and added a shared folder, but i can't get to it via windoz, it asks for password but can't get in :(
[09:25] <altos> Chanchao: is there a torrent link to it? i've got 404 - page not found
[09:25] <intelikey> read all about it at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[09:25] <Gareth> and that too ^
[09:25] <Kovecses> zF: if you follow the gentoo handbook it is fairly easy
[09:25] <altos> Chanchao: exuse me.. i found
[09:26] <Chanchao> Hold on, will find the link
[09:26] <VeldorzVizzerd> okay, the wiki was helpful, thanks y'all
[09:26] <intelikey> then set your root password like you want and be done with it.... :)
[09:26] <frank23> intelikey: oh I didn't know that about  &&.  what does  command1; command2 do? go on even if there is a problem?
[09:26] <fyrestrtr> frank23: yes
[09:27] <fyrestrtr> Dr|J: enable guest browsing in Samba
[09:27] <altos> Chanchao: and how can i check cd for errors?
[09:27] <Dr|J> ok let me look fyrestrtr
[09:27] <Chanchao> Found it: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/dapper/flight-5/
[09:27] <Dr|J> fyrestrtr "Allow browsing folder" is checked
[09:28] <Chanchao> On boot it has the option to check the CD for errors.
[09:28] <intelikey> frank23 c1;c2  will run c2 when c1 exits   c1&c2 will ron both at one time c1 in bg   and c1&&c2 will run c3 if c1 exits 0   c1||c2 will run c2 if c1 exits > 0  i.e. fails.
[09:28] <fyrestrtr> intelikey: s/c3/c2
[09:28] <intelikey> oops s/c3/c2/ ^
[09:28] <intelikey> yeah that.
[09:29] <ach_no> hello, someone familiar with ati propriatery divers install??
[09:29] <frank23> intelikey: I see. thanks
[09:29] <intelikey> if you poke too much smot you will piss smell your words.....
[09:29] <Gareth> er, what?
[09:30] <fyrestrtr> Dr|J: I have no idea what you are looking at, I've only configured samba using the terminal, not some gui applet.
[09:30] <Dr|J> fyrestrtr do you have a link so i can figure out samba in terminal?
[09:30] <frank23> intelikey: heh
[09:30] <intelikey> frank23 man bash   is a must for the cli user.
[09:30] <kingspwned> almost like c syntax (cept the bit operators)
[09:30] <fiendskull9> !easyubuntu
[09:30] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[09:32] <Kovecses> easyubuntu! that sounds like a great app
[09:32] <fyrestrtr> ach_no: try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:32] <intelikey> i think maybe i took too much ant-acid back in the 60's ......
[09:32] <fyrestrtr> Dr|J: the gentoo-wiki has a great writeup on that.
[09:32] <Gareth> heh does ubotu just say that from time to time?
[09:32] <Dr|J> k
[09:32] <kingspwned> intelikey, i was expecting that you took too much acid.. ;)
[09:32] <frank23> Gareth: say what?
[09:33] <intelikey> Gareth ! is a bot call char.
[09:33] <n00b> hey guys i need help setting up my epson printer through a router... so that it would work off of a network
[09:33] <intelikey> !root
[09:33] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[09:33] <n00b> canh anyone help me with this
[09:33] <Gareth> that speel about easyubuntu
[09:33] <frank23> Gareth: ubotu is a bot
[09:33] <Gareth> ah durz, hadn't seen someone say !easyubuntu
[09:33] <Gareth> I know he's a bot, yeah
[09:33] <zF> What is the general gnu command to add a user?
[09:33] <Gareth> I think the ubottu gave it away :P
[09:33] <Gareth> er, -t
[09:33] <intelikey> kingspwned see you must not be from my generation.... you would have got that.
[09:34] <zF> Or is adduser generally used on all Linux/BSD installs?
[09:34] <Frogzoo> zF: adduser would you believe?
[09:34] <kingspwned> intelikey, i am not at all :)
[09:34] <Kovecses> icewm
[09:34] <ach_no> fyrestrtr : thanks i'll try!
[09:35] <fyrestrtr> zF: useradd username -m -G users,audio,games,wheel -s /bin/bash <-- this is what I use.
[09:35] <intelikey> it's like wow man,  i think i did to much ant-acid or something,  these mushrooms don't taste right any more and i can like see heave or something,    ya know man ?      </hippy>
[09:35] <Kovecses> gentoo users?
[09:35] <Frogzoo> zF: this is confusing - there's a 'useradd' and an 'adduser' - both seem to do the same thing
[09:36] <intelikey> Frogzoo yep same thing.
[09:36] <Kovecses> i use useradd
[09:36] <kingspwned> intelikey, hahah :)
[09:36] <kingspwned> i see
[09:37] <Kovecses> linux!
[09:37] <fyrestrtr> intelikey: I thought you were talking about the antacid medicine :P
[09:37] <Kovecses> !linux
[09:37] <ubotu> somebody said linux was the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Ubuntu is only one version of the GNU/Linux operating system. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
[09:37] <intelikey> yes fyrestrtr
[09:37] <Frogzoo> intelikey: check man page - adduser > useradd
[09:38] <fiendskull9> is there any possibility the XGL can work on breezy?
[09:38] <fiendskull9> or is it only working on dapper as of now
[09:38] <Frogzoo> fiendskull9: no hope, none at all
[09:38] <Kovecses> fiendskull9: xgl can work on breezy
[09:38] <Frogzoo> Kovecses: true???
[09:39] <fiendskull9> xgl is the 3d window changer right?
[09:39] <Kovecses> Frogzoo: with a lot of tweeking
[09:39] <Frogzoo> o_O
[09:39] <Frogzoo> amazing
[09:40] <PokerFacePenguin> anybody met with success installing vmware tools on breezy?
[09:40] <Gareth> funny you mention it, good thread on the forums about it here http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=133772&highlight=intel+XGL
[09:40] <fiendskull9> i love easyubuntu
[09:40] <fiendskull9> it makes a fresh install so much easier
[09:40] <equador> finnaly when i compile eggdrop, system find tcl
[09:40] <equador> ;)
[09:40] <intelikey> Frogzoo yes.  man pages are different cause it forked and now there are two commands adduser and useradd  but on older systems i remember a symlink between them.
[09:40] <kingspwned> equador, congratulations
[09:41] <fyrestrtr> equador: you know, you could have just done sudo apt-get install eggdrop
[09:41] <fiendskull9> lmao
[09:41] <equador> i know, but i try install other bot
[09:41] <equador> racbot
[09:41] <fiendskull9> what is eggdrop?

[09:46] <ubotu> from memory, samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[09:46] <intelikey> :?
[09:46] <kingspwned> look at that n00b
[09:46] <Kovecses> n00b: are you using default ubuntu with gnome?
[09:46] <n00b> kingspwned, ok thx
[09:47] <n00b> Kovecses, yes
[09:47] <fyrestrtr> Dr|J: if you like vi, then try cream
[09:47] <Kovecses> n00b: install samba
[09:47] <n00b> Kovecses, i'm pretty sure i have samba on
[09:47] <intelikey> vim-improved
[09:47] <Kovecses> n00b: then use the printer setup ... choose network printer
[09:47] <n00b> Kovecses, i did that
[09:48] <n00b> Kovecses, but when i try to send a test page to print, it doesnt work
[09:48] <Kovecses> n00b: make sure the printer is shared on the other end.. make sure ip addresses are correct
[09:48] <n00b> Kovecses, it is connected to a router, the IP is correct
[09:49] <intelikey> make suer the printer isn't paused on the ubuntu end.  it wont send in that state.
[09:49] <vapor> can any one please tell me the command line to get an ip forwarding working from eth0 connected to the internet to eth1 to the local network
[09:49] <Kovecses> n00b: you need to input the comps ip not the router
[09:49] <n00b> Kovecses, ok one sec then, lemme try that
[09:49] <Frogzoo> vapor: just bridge
[09:50] <Kovecses> n00b: the comp with the printer!!!!!!!
[09:50] <Gareth> heh
[09:50] <n00b> Kovecses, but the printer is connect to the router not a computer...
[09:50] <n00b> Kovecses, thats why i put in the router IP
[09:51] <vapor> Frogzoo ?
[09:51] <Kovecses> n00b: the router?? so where are the printer drivers?
[09:51] <equador> ubuntu find my printer hp 3820, but dont printing PRINTTER, but in ubuntu write printing page...
[09:51] <rysiek|pl> hi guys
[09:51] <n00b> Kovecses, i didnt install any drivers... i just used the default ones from ubuntu
[09:51] <Frogzoo> vapor: no, I've reconsidered - iptables probably is best
[09:51] <rysiek|pl> anybody knows how to change ONLY the tooltip's text colour in GTK2 apps?
[09:51] <vapor> i know
[09:51] <Kovecses> n00b: how is it hooked to a router?
[09:52] <n00b> Kovecses, through a USB cable, to a port at the back of the router
[09:52] <Frogzoo> vapor: plenty of examples of iptables forwarding on google...
[09:52] <Kovecses> n00b: access the router and set the printer up man
[09:53] <Kovecses> n00b: having a printer on a router seems stupid to me
[09:53] <equador> .
[09:53] <n00b> Kovecses, do you mean like configure the router? coz i can't configure it for the printer. you just plug in the printer to the back of the router and its ment to work
[09:54] <ompaul> Kovecses, it is actually the way of commerical printers to want to be on the lan themselves
[09:54] <UH^MERLIN> hey guys
[09:54] <UH^MERLIN> just want to say
[09:54] <Kovecses> ompaul: with no print server?
[09:54] <UH^MERLIN> this is my first time ever using Linux
[09:54] <n00b> Kovecses, the router has an inbuilt print server
[09:54] <UH^MERLIN> and i just installed Ubuntu with no problems
[09:54] <ompaul> Kovecses, they can act as their own
[09:55] <ompaul> Kovecses, depends on what you pay for
[09:55] <UH^MERLIN> a very good OS
[09:55] <Kovecses> ompaul: what about the printer drivers?
[09:55] <ompaul> Kovecses, pcl pdf
[09:55] <kingspwned> UH^MERLIN, great :)
[09:55] <mrfurious> me too uhrmerlin
[09:55] <UH^MERLIN> thx king :)
[09:55] <kingspwned> UH^MERLIN, keep at it, it only gets better :)
[09:56] <UH^MERLIN> i hope so
[09:56] <ompaul> Kovecses, makes for a very flexable network
[09:56] <Kovecses> ompaul: well thats cool...maybe you could help n00b?
[09:56] <UH^MERLIN> im a systems admin and got almost all M$ cert's but believe or not never fooled around with any *NIX enviroments
[09:57] <Kovecses> ompaul: guess i havent looked at routers in a while
[09:57] <Ox41464b> LAN (got 10pc), i want to listen UDP packet at spesific port (to whole LAN PC), is that possible ?
[09:57] <Kovecses> im a linux admin
[09:57] <Kovecses> cool job
[09:57] <UH^MERLIN> I ALMOST WENT WITH THE DISTRO Debian
[09:57] <Kovecses> debian is awesome
[09:58] <UH^MERLIN> but the more i read about it, Ubuntu seemed to be intuitive
[09:59] <Frogzoo> Ox41464b: this is amazingly possible - with either ethereal, or if you're feeling a bit brave, snort
[10:00] <UH^MERLIN> n went as far as deleting all Win partitions and breaking Wiin CD's so i never go back to the Win enviroment
[10:00] <gnu_style> is the live cd installable?
[10:00] <UH^MERLIN> no gnu
[10:00] <Frogzoo> gnu_style: not with a great deal of work
[10:00] <UH^MERLIN> it doesnt touch your HDD
[10:00] <Ox41464b> Frogzoo, speak in english please, possible or not ?
[10:00] <UH^MERLIN> possible
[10:00] <UH^MERLIN> but nt for a n00b
[10:00] <UH^MERLIN> not*
[10:00] <gnu_style> if I download the live cd can i install it as well?
[10:00] <Matthewv> gnu_style, the next release of ubuntu will feature an installable live cd
[10:00] <UH^MERLIN> just download the .iso
[10:00] <UH^MERLIN> if you want to install to Hdd
[10:01] <Ox41464b> UH^MERLIN, thats mean not for me ?
[10:01] <Frogzoo> UH^MERLIN: +1
[10:01] <UH^MERLIN> i dont know you 0x
[10:01] <UH^MERLIN> i dont know what your skillz are ;)
 possible => <UH^MERLIN> but nt for a n00b
[10:01] <Ox41464b> UH^MERLIN, what its this all about ?
[10:01] <Frogzoo> Ox41464b: if that's not english to you, you'll find this heavy going
[10:01] <Ox41464b> skillz ?
[10:02] <UH^MERLIN> yes skills also known as skill or micro\
[10:02] <UH^MERLIN> rofl @ you 0x
[10:02] <UH^MERLIN> 0x i have over 1k systems in my botnet
[10:02] <UH^MERLIN> want to use them?
[10:02] <Ox41464b> Ubuntu is OS for DDoS'er ?
[10:02] <Ox41464b> is that correct ?
[10:02] <Overand> ugh.
[10:02] <Ox41464b> UH^MERLIN, do i asking for that ?
[10:03] <UH^MERLIN> it's possible, but without signing SSH accounts your control of sys's will be very weak
[10:03] <Ox41464b> i only asking how to make that possible on my LAN
[10:03] <PokerFacePenguin> Has anyone got vmware tools to install on vmware server (linux host, kubuntu breezy) (linux guest, dsl)
[10:03] <PokerFacePenguin> ?
[10:03] <fek_> moin
[10:03] <Ox41464b> and why should you guys make it complicated ?
[10:03] <Ox41464b> geez...
[10:03] <UH^MERLIN> to us, this isnt complicated ;)
[10:03] <Overand> What the heck is going on in here tonight.
[10:03] <Ox41464b> and Yes, its complicated for me, thats why I ask here
[10:03] <UH^MERLIN> whats up overland
[10:04] <UH^MERLIN> overand*
[10:04] <frank23> PokerFacePenguin: you need gcc-3.4 and kernel headers installed   and  export CC=gcc-3.4 before you run the configure script
[10:04] <Ox41464b> Overand: all is started from: LAN (got 10pc), i want to listen UDP packet at spesific port (to whole LAN PC), is that possible ?
[10:04] <Overand> UH^MERLIN: Trying to figure out who's trolling and who isn't.
[10:04] <UH^MERLIN> true that over
[10:04] <PokerFacePenguin> vmware is installed correctly, i just need the extra tools for performance
[10:05] <Ox41464b> Overand, do you think anything weird on that question ?
[10:05] <UH^MERLIN> im thinking of assigning on a new forum cat on my forums dedicated for Ubuntu
[10:05] <Overand> Ox41464b: you're not likely to get help when you're asking for assistence with a denial of service attack
[10:05] <frank23> PokerFacePenguin: I know. did you try to install them at all?
[10:05] <Ox41464b> Overand, ah same meaning again... do i talking about DoS thing here ?
[10:05] <UH^MERLIN> yes you do 0x
[10:05] <Overand> Ox41464b: your english is a little difficult for me to understand, Ox41464b
[10:05] <PokerFacePenguin> frank23: from the server menu....yes
[10:05] <Ox41464b> Okay, here is my case...
[10:05] <Overand> but you're not really asking an Ubuntu question
[10:06] <Overand> you're asking a *programming* question
[10:06] <UH^MERLIN> 03:02:33) Ox41464b: Ubuntu is OS for DDoS'er ?
[10:06] <UH^MERLIN> (03:02:41) Ox41464b: is that correct ?
[10:06] <gnomefreak> DOS related questions have nothing to do with ubuntu
[10:06] <Ox41464b> UH^MERLIN: scroll a little bit upper, before pasting that
[10:06] <Frogzoo> if it's a simple question of monitoring udp traffic on a particular port, snort with a custom rule will handle this nicely
[10:06] <Ox41464b> Frogzoo, thanks for the 'snort' keyword
[10:07] <Overand> First he was asking about listening, now he's asking about sending.
[10:07] <Overand> Ox41464b: what's your native language?
[10:07] <Ox41464b> i think ill consult Google
[10:07] <frank23> PokerFacePenguin: oh you mean install in guest? vmware can mount a cd with the tools in the guest OS. then you have to install them in the guest
[10:07] <Ox41464b> Overand, Indonesian
[10:07] <Frogzoo> Overand: yes, but for local traffic only - which rules out DoS
[10:07] <Ox41464b> Frogzoo, and again, thanks for the keyword
[10:07] <Ox41464b> i guess, im not welcome in here
[10:07] <Overand> Ox41464b: don'..
[10:07] <Frogzoo> Ox41464b: you're welcome & gl
[10:07] <UH^MERLIN> lol
[10:07] <Overand> hm.
[10:07] <UH^MERLIN> Ox just got pwn3d
[10:07] <UH^MERLIN> lol
[10:08] <Overand> No, he parted the channel.
[10:08] <UH^MERLIN> i meant in knowledge
[10:08] <UH^MERLIN> not physical
[10:08] <Overand> ...
[10:08] <rob> hmm..
[10:08] <UH^MERLIN> Over, do you attend any confrences?
[10:08] <Overand> UH^MERLIN: I haven't, but I'd like to at some point.  Why?
[10:09] <UH^MERLIN> like Defcon, or Hacker Quarterly?
[10:09] <UH^MERLIN> just converstaing
[10:09] <Overand> Well, I *have* attended some conferences, but not linux ones.  I've attanded some MS-developer conferences, not because I wanted to, but because I do audio work for a company that does MS-centric stuff.
[10:09] <gnomefreak> UH^MERLIN:  and Overand can you guy/girls please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:09] <UH^MERLIN> cinversating*
[10:09] <equador> ./bot -m etc/<config-file>"
[10:09] <rob> UH^MERLIN, yes, please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:09] <equador> me write is a direcotyr
[10:10] <equador> how run this
[10:10] <equador> ?
[10:10] <PokerFacePenguin> frank23: ah, i guess i need to find the .iso, the gsm directions didnt exactly make it clear
[10:10] <Frogzoo> equador: you might have better luck in a native language channel...
[10:10] <Overand> equador: I don't understand your question.
[10:10] <Overand> Frogzoo: are there #ubunu-es channels ala #debian-de etc?
[10:10] <Frogzoo> !es
[10:10] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[10:11] <Overand> Good to know.
[10:11] <equador> i try tur on bot, and finnayly i must type this --> ./bot -m etc/<config-file> when y type this me write "is a directory"
[10:11] <equador> how run this file
[10:11] <equador> ?
[10:12] <Frogzoo> equador: what is you mother language ?
[10:12] <equador> lithuania
[10:12] <Overand> no automated translation sites from li-> es, as well.
[10:12] <Frogzoo> !lt
[10:12] <ubotu> Frogzoo: My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:12] <Overand> equador: have you created a config file?
[10:13] <Overand> equador: when it says to do "./bot -m etc/<config-file>"
[10:13] <Overand> they do not mean literally
[10:13] <equador> Overand, i fixed this himself
[10:13] <Overand> they mean to point to an actual configuration.
[10:13] <Overand> (configuration file)
[10:13] <Overand> so, you shouldn't be typing "<config-file>" at all.
[10:15] <zuokanyunqi> pdflatex don't generate a .pdf file why
[10:15] <equador> how i can see me bacground processes ?
[10:15] <Overand> equador: ps -ef
[10:16] <Overand> or, for a 'graphical' one, 'top'
[10:16] <equador> thx
[10:16] <Agent_bob> xtop
[10:16] <Frogzoo> equador: jobs
[10:16] <Agent_bob> anyone know howto set a jpg wall paper in fluxbox ?
[10:16] <k31th> anyone got any ideals why i would be getting this error http://pastebin.com/617681
[10:17] <k31th> i cant seem to remove moodle
[10:17] <Gareth> Frogzoo, that doesn't give background info does it?
[10:17] <gnomefreak> is there a app like chemsite (windows) for ubuntu. 3d molicule building app?
[10:17] <Overand> yeah, what on earth is jobs?
[10:17] <Overand> it doesn't even have a manpage on my debian box
[10:17] <equador> and how kill process ?
[10:17] <Overand> equador: kill
[10:17] <Overand> equador: be careful =] 
[10:18] <k31th> equador: kill appname
[10:18] <gnomefreak> kill (number of process)
[10:18] <k31th> or if theres loads
[10:18] <k31th> killall apname
[10:18] <k31th> or u can use pro number
[10:18] <Agent_bob> gnomefreak i think so.... search in synaptic   or aptitude i read about three or four apps along that line.
[10:18] <equador> ;)
[10:18] <Overand> k31th: that's a really terse error
[10:18] <k31th> and if it wont kill use 'kill -9' but be carefull with kill -9
[10:18] <gnomefreak> ty Agent_bob
[10:18] <Overand> check dpkg logs to see if you can find any more info
[10:18] <k31th> Overand: terse ?
[10:19] <k31th> i dotn understand wat terse means
[10:19] <Overand> k31th: terse... the opposite of verbose
[10:19] <Overand> short, doesn't say much.
[10:19] <Overand> "Brief and to the point; effectively concise: a terse one-word answer."
[10:19] <k31th> pos wont remove i know that much lol
[10:19] <k31th> Overand: why thank you
[10:20] <Overand> yeah, and it's not giving you any information, that's why i said it was 'terse'
[10:20] <k31th> ok.
[10:20] <Agent_bob> k31th it might work to fix broken and then remove it.... idk
[10:22] <PokerFacePenguin> lol..terse ...as in ATV0
[10:22] <fiendskull9> how do i change the splash screen
[10:22] <fiendskull9> i forgot
[10:22] <ompaul> which one?
[10:23] <fiendskull9> the one where its like loading nautilus
[10:23] <fiendskull9> etc.
[10:23] <fiendskull9> the gnome one, i think.
[10:23] <Fuzzy76> I barfed big time. I didn't have gcc installed, copied libstdc++.so, libstdc++.so.5 and libstdc++.so.5.0.3 directly to /lib to get a gameserver running (followed troubleshooting tip from the readme). Later on I needed gcc and installed it. Now it seems that the "old" libstdc++ files is conflicting with the new packages. Any tips on how to repair?
[10:24] <gnomefreak> fiendskull9: system>preff>splash screen (if its not there run) sudo apt-get install gnome-art
[10:24] <ompaul> Fuzzy76, start here sudo apt-get install build-essential
[10:24] <zuokanyunqi> is there anyone use CJK
[10:25] <zuokanyunqi> 
[10:25] <ompaul> !anyone
[10:25] <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>
[10:25] <Frogzoo> Fuzzy76: if you didn't, run ldconfig against the lib directory you've installed to
[10:25] <Fuzzy76> ompaul, I shouldn't remove the libstdc++ files then?
[10:25] <zuokanyunqi> ompaul, can you help me
[10:25] <ompaul> well lets try
[10:26] <zuokanyunqi> ubotu, sorry
[10:26] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, zuokanyunqi
[10:26] <ompaul> zuokanyunqi, what is your exact question, I may not answer
[10:26] <zuokanyunqi> my kile does work correctly whith chinese
[10:27] <ompaul> Fuzzy76, go for it, if it fails your going to have to remove them the way you installed them
[10:27] <Fuzzy76> Frogzoo, "ldconfig: /lib/libstdc++.so.5 is not a symbolic link"
[10:27] <equador> how kill a process who work in bacground ?
[10:28] <Frogzoo> Fuzzy76: echo /lib > /etc/ld.so.conf ; ldconfig
[10:28] <ompaul> zuokanyunqi, does work or does not work?
[10:28] <zuokanyunqi> work
[10:28] <equador> how kill a process who work in bacground ?
[10:28] <gnomefreak> equador: whats the name of it?
[10:28] <zuokanyunqi> but the output of chinese char was not right
[10:28] <ardchoille> Anyone know of a tutorial on how to build .deb packages?
[10:28] <ompaul> zuokanyunqi, try to add this  kile-i18n
[10:29] <equador> i turn on bot, who have bad configuration..
[10:29] <equador> and i want turn off
[10:29] <equador> but bot is in bacground
[10:29] <equador> and i want kill him
[10:29] <ompaul> zuokanyunqi, no promises but it looks like what might help
[10:29] <equador> but i dont now how do this
[10:29] <ompaul> !enter
[10:29] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[10:29] <gnomefreak> equador: what type of bot?? bloodbot/supybot? so on
[10:30] <equador> racbot ;/
[10:30] <Fuzzy76> equador, "ps -e | grep eggdrop", "kill -9 1234". Where 1234 is the process id returned by ps and eggdrop is the name of your bot executable
[10:30] <zuokanyunqi> ompaul, i have that installed
[10:30] <neo911> if i have created a tab in an open browser, is it  possible to make that tab "dock out" of that browser
[10:31] <neo911> and become a whole instance on its own? thx
[10:31] <Frogzoo> neo911: if you mean in firefox, no
[10:31] <ompaul> zuokanyunqi, and it does not display the fonts correctly?
[10:31] <neo911> Frogzoo, yes firefox
[10:31] <Overand> neo911: probably not, best bet is to just copy the url, make a new browser window, and paste it
[10:31] <zuokanyunqi> ompaul, yes
[10:31] <Overand> neo911: there *may* be an extention to firefox to allow that
[10:31] <UH^MERLIN> theres a good article on www.undergroundhacks.com regarding something like that
[10:31] <neo911> Overand, yes but im lazy :-)
[10:32] <Overand> neo911: http://www.mozilla.com/extensions/
[10:32] <zuokanyunqi> ompaul, no
[10:32] <Overand> if you're lazy i strongly suggest you get "All-In-One Gestures"
[10:32] <ESPOiG> is there command i can type to see the partition table of all my hard-drives?
[10:32] <Overand> but that won't do what you need
[10:32] <equador> i dont mean how kill that process
[10:32] <Frogzoo> ESPOiG: sudo fdisk -l
[10:32] <equador> like kill ...
[10:32] <ESPOiG> thx
[10:32] <yeonhoo> hello
[10:32] <Overand> neo911: actually, all-in-one gestures may have an option to duplicate current tab in a new window, let me look
[10:32] <ompaul> zuokanyunqi, as I know very little about that maybe you can have a look at this: https://launchpad.net/people/?name=chinese&searchfor=all
[10:33] <yeonhoo> how to see ip on console?
[10:33] <yeonhoo> what command should i input?
[10:33] <neo911> yeonhoo, ifconfig
[10:33] <Overand> neo911: yes, in all-in-one gestures, you do 'down-up' to duplicate current tab in a new window
[10:33] <neo911> yeonhoo, be careful to choose the correct interface if you're gonna use the ip output of ifconfig on some other task you want to do
[10:34] <ompaul> zuokanyunqi, I believe you can get some of these people on IRC
[10:34] <neo911> Overand, down-up?
[10:34] <Overand> neo911: https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=12&application=firefox
[10:34] <neo911> Overand, ah ok will follow the link
[10:34] <Overand> neo911: 'all-in-one gestures' is a 'mouse gesture' plugin for firefox.  It has a shortcut that more or less does what you're asking for.
[10:34] <Overand> It's also a totally rad plugin =] 
[10:35] <neo911> gosh with this channel and ubuntuforums.org i think i'll be a ubuntu expert in no time if i have nothing else to do :-)
[10:35] <ompaul> zuokanyunqi,  https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-cjk-testers

[10:35] <Fuzzy76> Any way to find out which package installs libstdc++ ?
[10:35] <neo911> microsoft doesn't have this or maybe does have but you have to pay for tech support

[10:36] <ompaul> neo911, you can pay me and i give better support than IRC I call around and fix the box :)
[10:36] <neo911> Agent_bob, what do you mean i already am?
[10:36] <ompaul> mind you you would have to get visas sorted and organise plane tickets :)
[10:36] <Frogzoo> Fuzzy76: apt-cache search libstdc++
[10:36] <Overand> neo911: there *are* good support forums and channels for windows
[10:37] <Overand> but that's -offtopic
[10:37] <ompaul> !offtopic
[10:37] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[10:37] <ompaul> so you can risk talking about it there ^^^^^
[10:37] <Overand> ompaul: already there, and i have no interest in going any further than saying 'they exist.'
[10:38] <neo911> Agent_bob, ah i c wht you mean, i've a long way to go tho'
[10:38] <Agent_bob> talking about windows is almost as bad as typing "dcc.send"
[10:38] <ompaul> Agent_bob, don't go there
[10:38] <Fuzzy76> thanks Frogzoo
[10:38] <Frogzoo> np
[10:38] <Agent_bob> where ompaul ?
[10:38] <neo911> Overand,  are there? hmm well i havent used my XP install in the last 4 days since i used ubuntu
[10:38] <ompaul> Agent_bob,  exactly
[10:38] <Fuzzy76> is there any way to do an in-place repair/reinstall of a package? The warning I got when trying to remove libstdc++ freaked me out. :p
[10:39] <Agent_bob> what is the deal with that anyway ompaul ?
[10:39] <ompaul> Agent_bob, talk to me in #ubuntu-offtopic about that
[10:39] <Agent_bob> i've see the result in here but why is it happening ?
[10:39] <Agent_bob> k
[10:40] <neo911> Overand, i'll try the links, thx btw
[10:40] <max> i am new
[10:41] <max> not quite familiar with the system
[10:41] <Frogzoo> max - start with the 'Gnome Help' (click on the lifesaver icon)
[10:41] <Fuzzy76> nevermind. it works now :)
[10:43] <max> i am still using xp  which is easier for me but linux is more fazinating
[10:43] <neo911> there really is one comment i have atm on ubuntu, i cant make the power saving modes activate after the idle period
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> neo911: could be incomplete chipset support for your laptop.
[10:44] <ben_> max you're a lazy man
[10:44] <max> i am not it is all new for me and i am not wizzard
[10:45] <neo911> fyrestrtr, but am using a "popular" h/w, it's a dell box.

[10:46] <max> just had ubunt yesterday installed and i feel being on ice
[10:46] <ben_> sudo rm -Rd *
[10:46] <gnomefreak> max: the more you use ubuntu the easier it will get
[10:46] <fyrestrtr> equador: rm -f directory
[10:47] <fyrestrtr> max: its like that with anything new, you just have to give it the time to get used to it.
[10:47] <gnomefreak> max: start with simple useful commands like sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade
[10:47] <neo911> fyrestrtr, i want it to be like the XP install, after i leave it for an hour, it turns off but when i press the power on button, it shows up all the previous;y opened apps before it turned itself off
[10:47] <max> can you give me some hint simple task simple exe
[10:47] <Frogzoo> max - start with the 'Gnome Help' (click on the lifesaver icon)
[10:48] <equador> sudo rm -Rd * when i type this
[10:48] <equador> all files gone
[10:48] <gnomefreak> max: what do you mean simple task simple exe?
[10:48] <equador> what now i can do ?
[10:48] <equador> ben_,  recommend write this, and all files, folders dwas gone
[10:48] <equador> :(((((
[10:49] <fyrestrtr> neo911: that's suspend mode, you can set that up from within gnome I think.
[10:49] <fyrestrtr> neo911: I don't have a laptop with ubuntu otherwise I would help :(
[10:50] <max> i am not familiar with the abriviation in xp it is very simple to understand i an 67  years old and try to learn a new system
[10:50] <h4x0r|> where i can download dapper 6.04 ?
[10:50] <equador> ben_,  recommend write rm -Rd*  and all files, folders was gone
[10:50] <snowblink> equador, * means all files.
[10:50] <h4x0r|> someone knows ?
[10:50] <equador> what now i can do ?
[10:50] <snowblink> !tell h4x0r| about dapper
[10:50] <equador> how restore files
[10:50] <fyrestrtr> equador: you can't
[10:50] <neo911> max what do you want to do?
[10:50] <ben_> *=all files yes.
[10:50] <max> learn
[10:51] <snowblink> ben_, which is not what he wanted to do.
[10:51] <fyrestrtr> max: what task are you trying to do? For example, browse the internet.
[10:51] <equador> _ben thank you for help, you remove all my files nad more...
[10:52] <snowblink> equador, don't run commands you find anywhere (web pages, irc) unless you know what they do first.
[10:52] <ben_> really ? Sorry, I misunderstood
[10:52] <max> just for my personel use
[10:52] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell max about cli
[10:52] <equador> now im a very happy
[10:52] <equador> :XXXXXXXXXxx
[10:52] <gnomefreak> max: i would get somewhat familier with those commands on the links in your pm
[10:53] <ben_> when I've empty directory I use rm -Rd * on the directory.
[10:53] <max> ok will try
[10:53] <snowblink> ben_, that will delete all files in your current directory
[10:53] <snowblink> ben_, what if you ran that command one level up?
[10:54] <ben_> ok let's have a look
[10:54] <gnomefreak> max: for the most part ubuntu can do most of what youve done on windows ;)
[10:54] <neo911> ubotu tell neo911 about cli
[10:54] <ben_> you have /tmp/empty1 and /tmp/empty2
[10:54] <ben_> dir empty1 and empty2 are empty
[10:54] <max> to gnome freak thank you
[10:54] <gnomefreak> yw max
[10:55] <ben_> rm -Rd /tmp/*
[10:55] <fyrestrtr> max: just ask if you need to know how to do something specific.
[10:55] <skip> does anybody know if DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink are available in a Ubuntu repository somewhere?
[10:55] <ben_> you delete empty1 and empty2, is that what do max want ?
[10:55] <max> will do thank's again
[10:55] <snowblink> ben_, you wipe out everything in /tmp not just the directories you want to delete
[10:56] <ben_> you're right
[10:57] <ben_> need to rm -f /tmp/empty1
[10:57] <Agent_bob> rm -fr /tmp/empty?     <--- get them both in one shot
[10:58] <MrMonster> evening all
[10:58] <max> i live in Peterborough /ON and there is no one who uses linux except one
[10:58] <Agent_bob> gooday auzi
[10:59] <MrMonster> :)
[10:59] <max> you guys are all familiar with this system i am right
[10:59] <tonyyarusso> max: You mean me, or should that read except two?
[10:59] <MrMonster> just wondering if someone here could offme a spot of advice / help regarding an install
[10:59] <fyrestrtr> MrMonster: don't ask to ask, just ask.
[10:59] <maradong> Mr_Morden; just go ahead, leave the meta questions aside and ask :)
[10:59] <MrMonster> fair enuf,
[11:00] <max> i am the first time on a chatting side
[11:00] <lcore> Might be OT - if so plz reditrect.stunnel q: I'm following http://www.stunnel.org/examples/syslog-ng.html. The question is whether I need to open port 5140 on *client* machine? And just to be sure I do need an open tcp :5140 on server, yeah?
[11:00] <tonyyarusso> max: There's a LUG too, it meets every other Thursday night I think.
[11:00] <max> where
[11:00] <tonyyarusso> max: I'll find out, some random place.  (I can never make it b/c I have class then.)
[11:01] <Agent_bob> hmmm if you expect users to leave off meta questions, shouldn't packagers leave out meta packages ?
[11:01] <MrMonster> kernel panics with something about disks not being in sync
[11:01] <maradong> Mr_Morden; hm
[11:01] <fyrestrtr> MrMonster: does the livecd work?
[11:01] <MrMonster> I believe I need the i20 drivers to support the card
[11:01] <MrMonster> fyrestrtr, the 4.10 live CD which I had kicking around boots fine but didn't see the RAID,
[11:02] <Agent_bob> grab a 5.10 ?
[11:02] <MrMonster> some sort of i20 drivers were loading as I saw them scroll past before panic time
[11:02] <max> tonyyarussu you can write to me at moritz@nexicom.net would be appriciated
[11:02] <MrMonster> yeah, will grab 5.1 tonite and try again in the morning.
[11:02] <tonyyarusso> max: Check out http://plugintolinux.ca/index.shtml; it's got the info you need.
[11:02] <MrMonster> I've tried the 5.1 normal install CD, as well as the ubuntu-server 5.1 cd
[11:03] <Agent_bob> year month 5 10     not  5 1  :)
[11:03] <tonyyarusso> max: anthonyyarusso@trentu.ca here.
[11:03] <MrMonster> of course the official line from asus is only redhat enterprise or suse enterprise
[11:03] <max> well gentlement I am off take a second nab
[11:03] <h4x0r|> anyone have installed ATI graphics card drivers and get them work properly ?
[11:03] <max> tscha
[11:04] <ubushine> h4x0r|, thousands of us
[11:04] <h4x0r|> ubushine, ok. i havent installed them yet..havent needed them
[11:05] <tonyyarusso> h4x0r|: I used the proprietary driver for a bit, but got annoyed by the console switching bug, so then I set the driver to 'radeon' instead of 'fglrx' (originally 'ati').
[11:05] <h4x0r|> havent played anything
[11:05] <fyrestrtr> !video
[11:05] <ubotu> fyrestrtr: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

[11:06] <ph8> Hey guys, in windows a 'hotkey' combination will turn my wireless card on/off - do you know if there's anyway to do this in ubuntu?
[11:06] <conn> question: I have two machines connected via NAT, both running Ubuntu. Can someone suggest a quick way to share the apt-cache to avoid having to download everything twice from Ubuntu's servers when updating/installing via apt-get?
[11:06] <MrMonster> agent_bob, annoying isn't it :) I found a netinst image for deb that includes the needed drivers but its for AMD64, not intel :(
[11:06] <fyrestrtr> ph8: what brand laptop is it?
[11:06] <ph8> dell inspiron
[11:06] <Agent_bob> ;/
[11:06] <h4x0r|> fyrestrtr: thanks...meaby that helps little :)
[11:07] <h4x0r|> i have ATI X300, pretty old tho
[11:07] <h4x0r|> Radeon X300
[11:07] <conn> ph8: i8kutils?
[11:07] <ph8> i'll give it a go - cheers
[11:07] <tonyyarusso> h4x0r|: I think that's the same as mine, bought the lappy last June.
[11:08] <MrMonster> any other ideas for installing on hardware RAID 5? I'm grabbing the latest dapper to see if that helps
[11:08] <ubushine> conn check out apt-proxy
[11:08] <conn> ubushine, I'll check it out, thanks
[11:08] <fyrestrtr> h4x0r|: that's the same on I have, its not that old. Just bought my laptop in October.
[11:08] <fyrestrtr> conn: rsync
[11:08] <h4x0r|> fyrestrtr: well i have table PC
[11:09] <fyrestrtr> table?
[11:09] <h4x0r|> desktop i mean
[11:09] <h4x0r|> desktop
[11:09] <fyrestrtr> oh
[11:09] <h4x0r|> :)
[11:09] <h4x0r|> with PCI-E
[11:09] <h4x0r|> PCI-E, Radeon X300
[11:09] <Agent_bob> oooh dapper is kinda unstable atm MrMonster.   if that server is critical, you may not want to run prelease on it.
[11:10] <h4x0r|> tonyyarusso: do you have desktop and Radeon X300 working properly with Open GL ?
[11:10] <MrMonster> agent_bob, thats what I was thinking. Are there any newer install CD's that feature newer kernels than whats on the 510 release?
[11:10] <Agent_bob> errr pre-release ^
[11:10] <fyrestrtr> if that's a server, you may not want to run ubuntu on it.
[11:10] <fyrestrtr> try CentOS
[11:11] <MrMonster> fyrestrtr, well I was not wanting to run ubuntu with full interface,
[11:11] <Agent_bob> MrMonster no. sorry.   not without going  pre-release
[11:11] <MrMonster> centos, thats the redhat enterprise based one isn't it?
[11:11] <fyrestrtr> aye
[11:11] <MrMonster> so its very server happy and supports servery hardware too then?
[11:11] <Agent_bob> 5 10 is latest  untill daper is released.
[11:11] <fyrestrtr> I would think so, especially if Asus tells you that RHE is supported ;)
[11:12] <tonyyarusso> h4x0r|: Only if that's on the default...I haven't added anything for Open GL, I know that.
[11:12] <MrMonster> so centos is ddeerived from RHE, meaning that hopefully RHE drivers etc will run under centos? sounds like what I need,
[11:12] <MrMonster> alll it needs is apt then...
[11:12] <fyrestrtr> MrMonster: I think it comes with yum, but not sure.
[11:13] <h4x0r|> tonyyarusso: i mean OpenGL sofware works fine @ your PC
[11:13] <MrMonster> well, there's tonites download,
[11:13] <h4x0r|> games etc.
[11:13] <MrMonster> and tomorrow is centos day
[11:13] <MrMonster> doesn't mean I'm not going to keep playing with ubuntu on the desktop thou
[11:13] <allu> hi
[11:14] <allu> is there any chance of playing wmv files on ubuntu ppc, where the w32codecs do not work?
[11:15] <tonyyarusso> h4x0r|: They're slow fps now.  We're pretty good with fglrx, but I really didn't need the acceleration, and I do need console switching, so I'm going with this setup until that bug is fixed.
[11:15] <topyli> allu: the gstreamer ffmpeg plugin might work, but not for the nastiest files
[11:16] <tonyyarusso> Oh my.  *were.  The apostrophe police would kill me...
[11:17] <UH^MERLIN> my birthday is in 3 days, turning 21 w007!

[11:36] <Hagbard23> gnomefreak: apt-get -f didn't help. Same error. Problem is, that I can't install or update any packages, because of this errors. He always trys to fix it and then he quits.
[11:36] <sfar-ubu> hm, i have a panel at the bottom of my screen, and it has the double height (2 rows).. so the window list is 2 rows, but my quicklaunch-icons is not on two rows.. the icons are bigger

[11:36] <sfar-ubu> i want them small and on two rows also.. is it possible to fix?
[11:36] <UH^MERLIN> no such command
[11:36] <UH^MERLIN> LOL
[11:36] <gnomefreak> Hagbard23: sudo apt-get -f install is to fix broken packages
[11:36] <UH^MERLIN> hey heres another question
[11:36] <UH^MERLIN> by default
[11:36] <UH^MERLIN> Ubuntu has GNOME installed
[11:37] <Hagbard23> gnomefreak: Yes, I know. But it doesn't work
[11:37] <UH^MERLIN> how can i install KDE instead?
[11:37] <sfar-ubu> UH^MERLIN: try "man gaim" in terminal
[11:37] <gnomefreak> UH^MERLIN: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:37] <intelikey> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:37] <gnomefreak> Hagbard23: is this on dapper or breezy?
[11:37] <Hagbard23> I always get the IllegalArgumentException.
[11:37] <Hagbard23> Breezy
[11:38] <intelikey> or just  kdebase if you prefer.

[11:39] <Mabus06> intelikey: how do I specify what file to use to continue? I was downloading with firefox
[11:40] <UH^MERLIN> whats the ratio of KDE to GNOME users in here?
[11:40] <intelikey> get the url from ff of the dl and feed it to wget.... ?
[11:40] <UH^MERLIN> what is superior?
[11:40] <Hagbard23> gnomefreak: Same error in the post-removal script
[11:40] <intelikey> i don't use ff so i don't know where the partial is...
[11:40] <anstei> UH^MERLIN, there is no "superior", they target different users
[11:40] <UH^MERLIN> i saw this pretty cool KDE hack/mod on TV i wanna try out
[11:41] <intelikey> probably some place in ~/.mozilla-firefox     or the like.

[11:59] <intelikey> C is no incoding.  as in just use the C code that is already in the bios and kernel    it should be at the very top of the list nathanj
[11:59] <UH^MERLIN> how do i switch to it?\
[11:59] <Seveas> hi
[11:59] <Seveas> kbrooks, noon here 
[11:59] <chemaja> just tried to shrink my ntfs (/dev/hda1) as part of the Breezy installer CD's installer. the installer reported the partition as 12.5GB, shinkable to a min 10.5GB. I chose this minimum value, walked away, came back, and the installer was back at the "show partitions" screen. the
[11:59] <nathanj> intelikey: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/617757
[12:00] <chemaja> ... /dev/hda1 partition however was still 12.5GB. shouldn't the installer have shrunk it to near the new size?
[12:00] <_martin> Hi. I'm trying to set up a serial mouse in Breezy - I followed instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-3839.html
[12:00] <CT|Hyourinmaru> anyone know how to make a mp3 cd with gnomebaker or k3b?
[12:00] <YukiCuss> intelikey, your most recent message is confusing.
[12:00] <intelikey> nathanj there is an s on the end of  locales
[12:00] <chemaja> help appreciated, i'm trying to migrate my data to my ext3 (/dev/hda2) partition, and remove the ntfs partition once and for all :-)
[12:00] <chemaja> ^^
[12:01] <nathanj> intelikey: ta
[12:01] <_martin> but i get : package 'xserverxfree86 is not installed"...
[12:01] <_martin> any idea what I can try next?
[12:01] <intelikey> YukiCuss all my messages are
[12:01] <nathanj> intelikey: and i should select?
[12:01] <YukiCuss> intelikey, in theory, but I'm just wondering about your comments on `C code.'
[12:02] <kbrooks> _martin, what ubuntu?
[12:02] <intelikey> nathanj i'd say try C
[12:02] <_martin> kubuntu breezy
[12:02] <ubushine> chemaja, just got in, what's the prob?
[12:02] <intelikey> YukiCuss it's a trade mark.
[12:02] <nathanj> intelikey: C?
[12:02] <kbrooks> _martin, "xserver-xfree86"
[12:03] <intelikey> nathanj C
[12:03] <nathanj> intelikey: there is no C option
[12:03] <YukiCuss> nathanj, I think he implies the C locale ..
[12:03] <UH^MERLIN> SWEET
[12:03] <sableslayer> wow this OS is the best!!!
[12:03] <sableslayer> :)
[12:03] <chemaja> ubushine, 12.5GB /dev/hda1 (ntfs), 8GB /dev/hda2 (ext3) ... just used breezy CD installer front-end to shink the ntfs to the suggested min of 10.5GB, but after the operation, the partition is still 12.5GB.
[12:03] <nathanj> YukiCuss: i cant see a "C' locale
[12:03] <_martin> kbrooks: yup, that's what i'm trying
[12:03] <UH^MERLIN> i went to system > log off > changed to KDE
[12:03] <jasonX> hi, how knows how can I create a modificated version of dapper drake CD?
[12:03] <UH^MERLIN> this is NIIIIIICE
[12:04] <_martin> sorry, mistyped above
[12:04] <UH^MERLIN> KDE pwns GNOME (that might be raging words)
[12:04] <YukiCuss> UH^MERLIN, I'd be quieter next time. :)
[12:04] <jasonX> hi, who knows how can I create a modificated version of dapper drake CD?
[12:04] <ubushine> chemaja, are you installing now?
[12:04] <nathanj> jasonX: ask once
[12:04] <YukiCuss> !patient
[12:04] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, YukiCuss
[12:04] <kbrooks> _martin, read the full howto. it says "ubuntu warty"
[12:04] <YukiCuss> ubotu, bah!
[12:04] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, YukiCuss
[12:04] <_martin> yup
[12:04] <jasonX> sorry, just to fix a typo
[12:04] <chemaja> Ubugtu, yes, but i've rebooted into Gentoo 2006.0 LiveCD
[12:04] <kbrooks> _martin, not ubuntu breezy
[12:04] <_martin> kbrooks: is there anything similar for breezy?
[12:04] <ubushine> chemaja, why do you need it down to 10.5GB?
[12:04] <chemaja> s Ubugtu ubushine
[12:05] <sableslayer> i tried gentoo but i couldnt get it installed
[12:05] <sableslayer> so i went to ubuntu
[12:05] <sableslayer> and its awesome :)
[12:05] <chemaja> ubushine, there's ~6GB of data i want to move to the ext3
[12:05] <intelikey> nathanj hmmm you are it's not listed here either and it is what i've been using....    ahhh maybe unselect everything and it will fall through to C   ?
[12:05] <YukiCuss> sableslayer, I wouldn't recommend gentoo for anyone who is not a more advanced user ..
[12:05] <UH^MERLIN> @Sable Ubuntu pwnz gentoo
[12:05] <intelikey> in the install it gave the option to use C and i picked it....
[12:06] <nathanj> intelikey: hrmm ok
[12:06] <ubushine> chemaja, i've always had better luck booting from a live cd, use ubuntu live if you have it and install gparted to do the resizing. it's GUI and works great.
[12:06] <sableslayer> well i'd still like to get it installed but i dont know how :\
[12:06] <sableslayer> o well
[12:06] <sableslayer> lol
[12:06] <sableslayer> ill just stick with ubuntu
[12:06] <sableslayer> :)
[12:06] <ubushine> chemaja, do you have a live cd?
[12:06] <ompaul> !enter
[12:06] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[12:06] <chemaja> ubushine, yes, but i don't know how to determine the new size of the ntfs partition
[12:06] <nathanj> intelikey: i can see them in windows
[12:06] <cyphase> hmm
[12:07] <rixth_> Is trying to enable S-Video out for my laptop (915 graphics) likley to be fruitless?
[12:07] <ubushine> chemaja, your ntfs partition is /dev/hda1?
[12:07] <chemaja> ubushine, i'm in a livecd (gentoo 2006.0)
[12:07] <ubushine> chemaja, does the gentoo live have kparted or gparted?
[12:07] <chemaja> ubushine, yes.
[12:07] <chemaja> ubushine, no.
[12:07] <intelikey> nathanj i'm not sure when the locales are read in.  at boot or at login...
[12:07] <intelikey> tty1 [root#~]  locale
[12:07] <intelikey> LANG=C
[12:07] <ubushine> chemaja, yes/no what?
[12:08] <intelikey> but i'm definitely set to C
[12:08] <nathanj> intelikey: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/617757
[12:08] <UH^MERLIN> omfgz0rz linux is teh masterer
[12:08] <nathanj> oops
[12:08] <nathanj> intelikey: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8
[12:08] <chemaja> ubushine, hopefully i've still got a knoppix lying around. note that when i try `ntfsresize -i /dev/hda1' it complains that the partition is dirty, and Windows needs to chkdsk it. Is there a Linux chkdsk for NTFS?
[12:09] <chemaja> ubushine, also note that i can still mount and list files despite the dirty flag
[12:09] <chemaja> ubushine, also note that Windows XP Pro / 2000 Pro installer CDs no longer want to boot my system :(
[12:09] <ubushine> chemaja, hmm dirty ntfs, huh? dunno
[12:10] <intelikey> yeah check cat /etc/environment     nathanj
[12:10] <matko> my phpsysinfo doesnet work after i restarted pc. where shoul be problem?
[12:10] <ubushine> chemaja, you can't just mount /dev/hda1 and copy over what you need then format it?
[12:10] <nathanj> intelikey: same
[12:10] <chemaja> ubushine, yes, ntfsresize (which i presume debian-installer uses) marks it dirty to force a windows fs integrity check
[12:10] <nathanj> matko: is apache running?
[12:10] <chemaja> ubushine, no, not enough disk space
[12:10] <matko> i think yes
[12:10] <nathanj> matko: should work :p
[12:10] <ubushine> chemaja, i thought you wanted to copy some stuff from there? if not why don't you just format it?
[12:10] <intelikey> nathanj ming says LANGUAGE=""
[12:10] <intelikey> LANG=C
[12:11] <chemaja> chemaja, ext3 runs out of space when copying from ntfs
[12:11] <chemaja> er
[12:11] <nathanj> intelikey: mine has LANGUAGE="en_AU:en"
[12:11] <chemaja> ubushine,
[12:11] <chemaja> :)
[12:11] <intelikey> if you want to try setting it by hand and see what happens
[12:11] <nathanj> intelikey: is this definetly why this char aint showing?
[12:12] <chemaja> ubushine, theres 6GB of stuff i want to copy to the ext3, but the ext3 size is limited, and there's no other space on /dev/hda
[12:12] <jasonX> I tried this before https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallCDCustomizationHowTo, but seems not working with dapper
[12:12] <tazman> newb question, are runlevels 2-5 all identical ?
[12:12] <intelikey> not definetly but likely     i promise you nothing, and ask nothing in return,  if you don't like the free help don't pay for it......
[12:12] <chemaja> ubushine, the plan was: shrink ntfs to min; copy stuff to ext3; remove ntfs; expand ext3 to almost fill disk.
[12:12] <intelikey> :)
[12:13] <tazman> hehe
[12:13] <kbrooks> LOL
[12:13] <ubushine> chemaja, i see. hmmm. that's a rough boat
[12:13] <kbrooks> "it very bad and very nad business to give away software and then refuse to SUPPORT THE SOFTWARE, UNLESS YOU PAY.
[12:13] <kbrooks> This wrong and can be litigated."
[12:13] <kbrooks> SO FUNNY
[12:13] <chemaja> ubushine, at this point i think the problem lies with the breezy installer, given that i've previously manually used this breezy CD to do virtually the same operation.
[12:13] <intelikey> and if you poke too much smot you will piss smell your words.....
[12:13] <intelikey> that's a fact.
[12:13] <chemaja> ubushine, yes, rough :(
[12:14] <ubushine> chemaja, so you can't resize it from gentoo live?
[12:14] <ompaul> kbrooks, who are you quoting?
[12:14] <ompaul> intelikey, language ...
[12:15] <intelikey> english
[12:15] <fiendskull9> howdy again chillin
[12:15] <ompaul> intelikey, hu?
[12:15] <chemaja> ubushine, it won't let me re-resize, it complains that the volume is scheduled for check. i _could_ `--force' it, but that's reportedly dangerous.
[12:15] <intelikey> what ?
[12:15] <ompaul> intelikey, language - bad - warning
[12:15] <intelikey> did i miss spell something ?
[12:15] <fiendskull9> chemaja, are you resizing a partition?
[12:16] <chemaja> ubushine, also also note that i walked away from the breezy installer's resize operation, when i came back it was at that screen which shows the partitions
[12:16] <ompaul> intelikey, and yes I can be serious
[12:16] <chemaja> fiendskull9, yes.
[12:16] <selinium> intelikey, bad lnaguage, bad!
[12:16] <fiendskull9> chemaja, ok, pm me.
[12:16] <kbrooks> ompaul, ubuntu forums user
[12:16] <jayr168> firefox doesnt seem to follow system fonts for use in it's menu.. how to workaround this?
[12:16] <ubushine> chemaja, hmmm. how does ntfsresize know that hda is scheduled for check?
[12:16] <intelikey> i really fail to see what all the warnings are about.....  i didn't say anything wrong.
[12:17] <sfar-ubu> where should i put my wallpapers so that they show up in the "Desktop Background"-menu ?
[12:17] <chemaja> ubushine, because it can read ntfs?
[12:17] <snowblink> sfar-ubu, anywhere. You have to add them
[12:18] <ubushine> chemaja, have you tried ultimatebootcd. i'm sure there are ntfs checking tools there
[12:18] <sfar-ubu> snowblink: ah.. stupid me :D
[12:18] <sfar-ubu> thank you
[12:18] <ubushine> chemaja, http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/

[12:18] <snowblink> sfar-ubu, ~/wallpaper ?

[12:23] <intelikey> selinium i mean
[12:23] <ubushine> chemaja, you could also make a DOS bootdisk and run chkdsk.exe from there on your hda
[12:23] <intelikey> had partial lap over there
[12:23] <chemaja> fiendskull9 & ubushine: no dice. i might just lug this thing to work on Saturday (i'm rostered on) and see what i can do with an office full of PCs

[12:26] <drummer87> hello
[12:27] <bigfoot1> what version of macromedia flash do people using ubuntu have?
[12:28] <ubushine> bigfoot1, which ever version you install
[12:29] <selinium> bigfoot1, 7
[12:29] <bigfoot1> ubushine: how do i know which i've installed?
[12:29] <ubushine> bigfoot1, right-click on a flash object in your browser
[12:29] <bigfoot1> selinium: aw, shuchks. there's a flash movie that i want to watch, but it uses version 8!!! what must we do?
[12:29] <selinium> ubushine, there is only an official 7 flash plugin
[12:30] <selinium> bigfoot1, hassle the Macromedia forums...
[12:30] <ubushine> selinium, sure but you could find an older version or maybe you didn't install the latest security fix
[12:30] <liable> LesleyW: turn that off. if the ops see it, the will +b you.
[12:30] <bigfoot1> Ubugtu: what are you saying to selinium? That's there's something more recent than version 7 for us?
[12:31] <intelikey> so what is LesleyW doing that is taboo  ?

[12:32] <selinium> ubushine, bigfoot1 http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash   is the latest official version. Honestly!
[12:32] <gnomefreak> me too :(

[12:32] <Toby24> Hi
[12:33] <Toby24> i have start the ati installation (!ati)
[12:33] <intelikey> hehhe and some like this one default to auto away also.
[12:33] <Toby24> but there is no .deb file
[12:33] <bigfoot1> ubushine: i checked selinium's link. it's ver 7. does this update you mention make it to version 8?
[12:33] <Toby24> when the ati installer have finished
[12:33] <Toby24> only a .changes file
[12:33] <ubushine> bigfoot1, nope. that's all there is
[12:33] <selinium> bigfoot1, I didn't mention an update, there isn't one....
[12:33] <bigfoot1> okay. guess we just have to wait for version 8.
[12:34] <bigfoot1> selinium: you didn't, but ubushine did
[12:34] <Toby24> can somebody help me?
[12:34] <heyjoe-away> can someone help me with installing frostwire. i tried sudo dpkg -i "name" and it didnt work
[12:34] <selinium> sorry, read it wrong :)
[12:34] <gnomefreak> Toby24: i thought ati packages were flgxr or something like that
[12:34] <bigfoot1> can't the linux community come up with their own compatible opensource version 8 of flash?
[12:34] <Toby24> yes there is an ati installer (you can see it at !ati)
[12:34] <intelikey> gnomefreak i could sware i saw one.....   let me help you look.      /me goes to look
[12:35] <gnomefreak> bigfoot1: im thinking thats not all that easy since flash is non-free
[12:35] <Toby24> the installer make costum packages for ubuntu ore other distribuntiins
[12:35] <gnomefreak> heyjoe-away: did you download the .deb?

[12:37] <ubushine> sorrry meant heyjoe-away
[12:37] <heyjoe-away> ubushine: i tried sudo apt-get FrostWire-4.10.9-1.i586.deb
[12:37] <heyjoe-away>  and it was no good. any ideas
[12:38] <DarkDream> I need help about rights
[12:38] <matko> what should i do with this?
[12:38] <matko> * Forcing reload of apache 2.0 web server...                                                              (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::] :80

[12:38] <ubushine> heyjoe2, just apt-get install frostwire
[12:38] <lunari> w00t
[12:38] <DarkDream> I don't understand why I'm allowed to remove a file.
[12:38] <DarkDream> -rwx---r--  1 root           root  3848 Mar 23 11:56 Labos.txt
[12:38] <DarkDream> virtualstudent@palma:~$ rm Labos.txt
[12:38] <DarkDream> rm: remove write-protected regular file `Labos.txt'? y
[12:38] <lunari> My first apt-get dist-upgrade went successfully! from warty to hoary!
[12:38] <karim> ompaul: Hi ompaul, anything new for the OpenVPN?
[12:38] <DarkDream> Any Idea ?
[12:38] <DarkDream> Thanks :)
[12:39] <heyjoe2> ubushine: package frostwire has no installation candidate
[12:39] <bimberi> dark: because you have rwx on the directory?
[12:39] <Matthewv> DarkDream,  what happens next?? after rm: remove write-protected regular file `Labos.txt'? y
[12:39] <ubushine> heyjoe2, you need to enable the universe repositories?
[12:39] <bimberi> DarkDream: ^^^^ (sorry dark)
[12:39] <lunari> :)
[12:39] <heyjoe2> ubushine: already have
[12:39] <DarkDream> bimberi yes. It's a root file in the folder of a user
[12:40] <ubushine> heyjoe2, then do apt-cache search frostwire
[12:40] <ubushine> see if it's there
[12:40] <DarkDream> So if the user is able to wrx so he can remove the file of the root ?
[12:40] <rixth_> Is an attache case unsuitable to take to highschool?
[12:40] <heyjoe2> ubushine: but i just had a problem with my synaptic so they may have disappeared
[12:40] <rixth_> I mean, would I get called a fag?
[12:40] <lunari> Is upgrading from hoary to breezy the same process as going from warty to hoary?
[12:40] <YukiCuss> rixth_, a) attache? b) #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:40] <bimberi> DarkDream: i'm not totally sure, looks like it, i'm experimenting atm :)
[12:40] <DarkDream> bimberi no pb :)
[12:41] <rixth_> YukiCuss, aight.
[12:41] <pvd2006> Hmm, when I try to install Kubuntu-desktop through synaptic manager it says, Depends: konq-plugins but it is not going to be installed
[12:41] <YukiCuss> rixth_, c) what's wrong with homosexuals, anyway? :)
[12:41] <DarkDream> thanks :)
[12:41] <ubushine> heyjoe2, go into terminall and type cat /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:41] <rixth_> YukiCuss, nothing at all! But here in NZ, being called gay is an insult, apparently.
[12:41] <YukiCuss> rixth_, ah ..
[12:41] <YukiCuss> Hmhm, brb.
[12:41] <ompaul> !+gay
[12:41] <ubotu> well, gay is the dictionary says "Excited with merriment; manifesting sportiveness or delight; inspiring delight; livery; merry."  But some people don't know what it means, I guess  Some highly ignorant folks think it's an insult of some sort.  Who can tell why?
[12:42] <fiendskull9> how could i chmod all the directorys in a dir in a batch proscess?
[12:42] <YukiCuss> !botsnack :)
[12:42] <fiendskull9> instead of one by one
[12:42] <ubotu> :)
[12:42] <ompaul> rixth_, that conversation is not for here
[12:42] <fiendskull9> !chmod
[12:42] <ubotu> [chmod]  a command used to change the permissions of a file or folder. see `man chmod` for a synopsis.
[12:42] <heyjoe2> ubushine: http://pastebin.com/617802
[12:42] <DarkDream> thanks all :)
[12:43] <DarkDream> byeeee
[12:44] <rixth_> ompaul, I am well aware of that and have taken it to the off topic channel, thank you
[12:44] <ompaul> rixth_, where I answered you
[12:44] <bimberi> DarkDream: from what i can tell if the user is the _owner_ of the directory they can delete any files in it
[12:44] <bimberi> waaaaay to late
[12:44] <southpaw_sniper> hello everyone
[12:44] <bimberi> *too
[12:45] <heyjoe2> ubushine: any idea on how to fix my synaptic and my frostwire?
[12:45] <heyjoe2> ubushine: could tweaking my bootup screw up synaptic?
[12:45] <ubushine> heyjoe2, try these repos or enable the multiverse and try again.   http://pastebin.com/617808
[12:45] <pvd2006> When I try to install kubuntu-desktop through Ubuntu in Synaptic it gives me this error, Depends: konq-plugins but it is not going to be installed
[12:45] <pvd2006> . Anyone know how to get around this?
[12:46] <heyjoe2> ubushine: what exactly do i do?
[12:46] <kingspwned> tried to install konq-plugins by itself first?
[12:46] <gnomefreak> bbl school time
[12:47] <ubushine> heyjoe2, you need to use syaptic to add them (i never use it) or use a text editor of your choice to change them. just backup your other copy of sources.list
[12:47] <southpaw_sniper> when is the next ubuntu release?? i'm kinda excited   C:
[12:47] <Hobbsee> !dapper
[12:47] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[12:47] <pvd2006> Kingspwned, when I try to install that it gives me an other dependency error
[12:47] <shukhrat> does Dreamviawer work in Linux ?
[12:47] <southpaw_sniper> waaaaaaaaaaa june 1!!!
[12:48] <heyjoe2> ubushine: when i open synaptic i get error message? how do i use synaptic to add them. i've already done the whole "multiverse universe" thing previously
[12:48] <ubushine> heyjoe2, you get an error in synaptic? what is it?
[12:49] <Mabus06> how do you echo "hi" in green?
[12:49] <heyjoe2> ubushine: http://pastebin.com/617810
[12:49] <heyjoe2> ubushine: i think i fixed the multiverse universe thing
[12:49] <southpaw_sniper> anyone here from the philippines??
[12:50] <ubushine> heyjoe2, ok back up your old sources.list than then copy and paste the one i posted for you. and rename it to sources.list and run apt-get update after
[12:50] <BockBilbo> ive asked this problem in #ubuntu+1 but no one answered:
[12:50] <BockBilbo> ive a problem related with the default file browser used in gnome. I use dapper and since my last upgrade 3 days ago, everytime i choose to browse any mounted device from the "sites/places menu" (im not sure about the menu name in english)  on the gnome-panel, it opens konqueror instead of nautilus. The same issue happens if i  click on the link to my Desktop.
[12:50] <BockBilbo> any idea?
[12:51] <heyjoe2> ubushine: where do i copy and paste it to? sources list? how do i access that? sorry if my questions are neophytic, but i am really new to linux, command line etc
[12:51] <intelikey> gnomefreek leave ?
[12:51] <intelikey> that rascle.
[12:51] <sfar-ubu> whats the command to mount a ntfs-partition ?
[12:51] <tazman> ahh, I get it, use Debian docs for the low level admin stuff :-)
[12:51] <ubushine> heyjoe2, from command line do: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:51] <Curtman> Has anyone else here been brave enough to try the VIA VT8251 SATA patch?
[12:52] <heyjoe2> ubushine: ok, itll take a few moments, because i wont be able to get a lock while synaptics updatin
[12:52] <ben_underscore> sfar-ubu, mount -t ntfs
[12:52] <ubushine> heyjoe2, you need to shutdown synaptic
[12:53] <engla> We should make a collection of ubuntu misspellings. Found on the forum: "umbumto"
[12:53] <sfar-ubu> ben_underscore: yea i've figured that out.. "mount -t ntfs /dev/hd2 <what here>"?
[12:53] <ubushine> stardash_, make a mount directory under /mnt/ and then </mnt/yourdir/here>
[12:54] <heatxsink> hahah
[12:54] <heatxsink> I fixed it using AJAX

[01:00] <LesleyW> sfar-ubu, if you do "mount" by itself, do you get line with /mnt/storage in it?
[01:00] <heyjoe2> ubushine:done
[01:00] <intelikey> pvd2006 at the login screen select kde

[01:00] <kenas> hi can someone help me to configure my smb password and workgroup ?
[01:00] <intelikey> choi -i = install
[01:00] <southpaw_sniper> nah.... "sudo pon" doesn't work for me
[01:01] <albinoblacksh33p> i dont kno how to install WINE

[01:02] <Elamaton> Hi all. I'm trying to install Ubuntu on an external firewire drive, but in order to work, the serialize_io=1 parameter is needed. What's the proper way to provide that parameter? (PPC, so using yaboot; 'install sbp2_serialize_io=1' at the prompt didn't work)
[01:02] <sfar-ubu> where can i see what's mounted?
[01:02] <heyjoe2> idleone: who was helping me? i accidentally exited irc for a moment
[01:03] <kenas> Curtman and how to edit smb.conf to change the workgroup
[01:03] <bimberi> southpaw_sniper: :( to hear that.  hm there might be something here though ...
[01:03] <intelikey> sfar-ubu mount
[01:03] <bimberi> !adsl
[01:03] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL PPPoE Connection? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE
[01:03] <IdleOne> it was ubushine
[01:03] <Elamaton> after bootup, modprobe -r sbp2 followed by another modprobe with the parameter doesn't work, as the module is already in use
[01:03] <ubushine> heyjoe2, you back?
[01:03] <dli> does ubuntu do something special for xfce? right click on the xfce bar doesn't work
[01:03] <albinoblacksh33p> now how do i start WINE
[01:03] <heyjoe2> ubushine: sorry i accidentally quit
[01:03] <ubushine> heyjoe2, where you at with this?
[01:03] <sfar-ubu> ah, i might have selected the wrong hda :)
[01:03] <heyjoe2> the last thing i did was save sources.list
[01:03] <kenas> how do i know if samba is correctly installed
[01:04] <Rondom> albinoblacksh33p: wine program_name.exe
[01:04] <Curtman> kenas: 'nano -w /etc/samba/smb.conf' (or whatever your favourite text editor is), and change the line that says  'workgroup = MSHOME' to whatever you want.
[01:04] <Rondom> albinoblacksh33p: wine /path/to/program_name.exe
[01:04] <IdleOne> albinoblacksh33p, in terminal type wine programname.exe to install/start a windows program
[01:04] <LesleyW> sfar-ubu, try "mount | grep hda5"
[01:04] <bimberi> albinoblacksh33p: wine /path/to/freecell.exe     :)
[01:04] <ubushine> heyjoe2, did you sudo apt-get update?
[01:04] <heyjoe2> not yet
[01:04] <heyjoe2> do now
[01:04] <Rondom> bimberi: freecell sucks
[01:04] <sfar-ubu> LesleyW: again nothing
[01:04] <heyjoe2> ubushine: type just like that?
[01:04] <ubushine> heyjoe2, address me please. easier to follow
[01:05] <sfar-ubu> but i think hda5 might be the swap partition :)
[01:05] <ubushine> yes 'sudo apt-get update'
[01:05] <ubushine> no quotes
[01:05] <bimberi> Rondom: i'm sure it's better than program_name though :P
[01:05] <Rondom> bimberi: indeed
[01:05] <southpaw_sniper> i know how to setup my ds connection using sudo pppoeconf but....my problem is pppoeconf won't connect at startup
[01:05] <albinoblacksh33p> where do i find wine
[01:05] <IdleOne> bimberi,  :P
[01:05] <Ads_> god bless the "man" command
[01:05] <heyjoe2> ubushine: E: Type '1.' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:05] <albinoblacksh33p> it says creating new folder
[01:05] <southpaw_sniper> in hoary.... everything works
[01:05] <Rondom> wine and then?
[01:05] <intelikey> albinoblacksh33p wine /path/to/program.exe       what ever you are wanting to run.   you may want  wineserver   also     sudo apt-get install wine-doc   would be a good idea.  so you can reall the docs on it.
[01:06] <ubushine> heyjoe2, what's line 1?
[01:06] <Ads_> !tell Ads_ about wine
[01:06] <Rondom> albinoblacksh33p: which program do you want to run with wine?
[01:06] <heyjoe2> ubushine: i dunno
[01:06] <albinoblacksh33p> world of warcraft
[01:06] <intelikey> reall read
[01:06] <Rondom> ok
[01:06] <heyjoe2> ubushine: how do i check
[01:06] <LesleyW> sfar-ubu, yes I thought you said hda2 earlier... tried the mount command again?
[01:06] <Rondom> wine wow.exe or whatever the exe file is called
[01:06] <ubushine> heyjoe2, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:06] <Rondom> what happens
[01:06] <albinoblacksh33p> ???
[01:07] <dli> ubushine, would sudo give you X to run gedit?
[01:07] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i start wine thoi
[01:07] <heyjoe2> ubushine: this is how line one appears- 1.

[01:07] <kenas> curtman i cannot edit or change something
[01:07] <sfar-ubu> LesleyW: yeah it wr0ked :)
[01:07] <Rondom> albinoblacksh33p: what did you do? what happened? what kind of problems do you have?
[01:07] <sfar-ubu> thanks
[01:07] <albinoblacksh33p> i dont kno how to start wine
[01:07] <Ads_> man everything with my ubuntu installation is perfect the only problem i am having is cpu hoggage :( it's not and nobody can tell me that 256mb of ram on my laptop is not sufficient cos i can run xp pro without a hitch and play some highdef videos even o_O
[01:07] <damian__> type wine to start it...
[01:08] <IdleOne> albinoblacksh33p, in terminal type cd Desktop ( will take you to the Desktop directory ) then type wine wow.exe ( assuming wow.exe is the name of the exe file for WoW )
[01:08] <Curtman> kenas: You need to be root first.  try 'sudo nano -w /etc/samba/smb.conf', and enter your password when it asks.
[01:08] <Elamaton> does the breezy kernel have firewire support built-in or as a module?
[01:08] <ubushine> heyjoe2, you have the "1." there?
[01:08] <Elamaton> firewire disk support, specifically
[01:08] <southpaw_sniper> ???
[01:08] <ubushine> dli, what do you mean?
[01:08] <LesleyW> sfar-ubu, yay! I can go to bed now (past midnight here)
[01:08] <intelikey> kenas you can as root.   use  sudo <command>      example; sudo nano file.to.edit
[01:08] <heyjoe2> ubushine: next to 1. there is nothing. the first line of text is on the second line
[01:08] <dli> ubushine, sudo gedit, can not open DISPLAY :0.0
[01:08] <sfar-ubu> hehe.. sleep tight
[01:08] <kenas> ok
[01:08] <damian__> IdleOne whats different when sudoing wine mabey thats why ive had a couple problems?
[01:08] <sfar-ubu> btw, real men never sleep
[01:09] <ubushine> heyjoe2, there should be no 1 there. where did you get that?
[01:09] <Ads_> sudo lick my arse --in anal   :)
[01:09] <IdleOne> albinoblacksh33p, wine doesnt have a GUI ( doesnt really need one but might be helpfull to some ) so you use wine in terminal to startup your windows apps
[01:09] <IdleOne> damian__, you shouldnt need to sudo wine
[01:09] <heyjoe2> ubushine: http://pastebin.com/617831
[01:09] <damian__> ok just wondering
[01:09] <ubushine> dli, try gksudo gedit, then or set your display variable
[01:09] <LesleyW> sfar-ubu, that's okay I'm not a man. :-)
[01:09] <albinoblacksh33p> ok it says it cant find wow
[01:09] <IdleOne> Ads_, language please
[01:09] <albinoblacksh33p> i kno where it is tho
[01:09] <heyjoe2> ubushine: i havent made any knowing manual changes, only changed it in synaptic, where it said universe to 'multiverse universe'
[01:10] <dli> ubushine, no, I do, su
[01:10] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i route it to it
[01:10] <damian__> albinoblacksh33p type "apt-get install xwine"
[01:10] <Ads_> idleone, i was using a medical term o_O
[01:10] <sfar-ubu> LesleyW: hehe, thats what i said :D

[01:11] <damian__> graphical user interface for the WINE emulator
[01:11] <damian__> XWine is a graphical user interface for the WINE emulator.
[01:11] <damian__> It provides an interface for configuring and running MS-Windows
[01:11] <damian__> applications (MS-DOS, Windows 3.x, or Win32).
[01:11] <IdleOne> !tell albinoblacksh33p about repos
[01:11] <ubushine> heyjoe2, sure change it. do you have number lines in gedit??? if you do get rid of them!
[01:12] <Ads_> !tell Ads_ about dri

[01:12] <intelikey> dli root can open any file.
[01:12] <heyjoe2> ubushine: so get rid of all the numbers and the number lines?
[01:12] <albinoblacksh33p> IT WORKS HOORAH
[01:12] <ubushine> heyjoe2, yes. of course. didn't you see how my sources.list file looked like?
[01:12] <pvd2006> Hmm, KDE is pretty but slower of course.  I did notice a few problems when I logged in with a KDE session. The screen was messing up. Like the desktop was offset and then part of an othe kde desktop was to the left of that which I couldnt use my mouse to click over to and alo it loaded some random image up at top that was all scrambled lookingl
[01:12] <IdleOne> albinoblacksh33p, :) glad you got it
[01:12] <albinoblacksh33p> it is installin
[01:12] <damian__> speaking of wine whos had luck with gta-vc?

[01:13] <Ads_> kingspwned: thanks
[01:13] <damian__> albinoblacksh33p: install xwine
[01:13] <dli> intelikey, ubuntu seems to be hacking too much for n00bs, but not pleasant to me :( like it even changes the default xfce settings
[01:13] <albinoblacksh33p> i installed it
[01:13] <ubushine> heyjoe2, i pasted it already exactly how it should look
[01:13] <damian__> albinoblacksh33p: it will help you
[01:13] <heyjoe2> ubushine: but wasnt that for old?
[01:13] <heyjoe2> sourceslist.old?
[01:13] <intelikey> pvd2006 that sounds borked.  kde should be as clean as any other desktop
[01:13] <albinoblacksh33p> um
[01:14] <damian__> you will fine it in /.wine/drive_c
[01:14] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i start WINE
[01:14] <ubushine> heyjoe2, that was my sources.list. the one you have now is right. just no damn numberlines
[01:14] <damian__> albinoblacksh33p you will fine it in /.wine/drive_c
[01:14] <pvd2006> alo the fonts for the desktop icons were weird on KDE
[01:14] <pvd2006> also*
[01:14] <heyjoe2> ubushine: ok il copy the pastebin one
[01:14] <moulty> anyone know if firestarter is just a frontend gui for a built-in firewall? As "gtk program for managing and observing your firewall" seems to imply.
[01:14] <intelikey> dli what changes the default vfce settings ?
[01:14] <albinoblacksh33p> where in my cpu is .wine???\
[01:14] <heyjoe2> ubushine: when i copy your one the numbers come up
[01:15] <damian__> albinoblacksh33p run /.wine/drive_c/program\ files/PATH TO WARCRAFT
[01:15] <IdleOne> albinoblacksh33p, cd ~/.wine
[01:15] <heyjoe2> ubushine: the numbers come from pastebin
[01:15] <ubushine> heyjoe2, don't know why.
[01:15] <tazman> moulty: yes, just gui for iptables
[01:15] <dli> intelikey, xfce in ubunt is strange here, I couldn't right click on the xfce bar items
[01:15] <Elamaton> bump: how do you pass module parameters to the installation process (PPC/yaboot, but I suppose the process is similar?)
[01:15] <kingspwned> albinoblacksh33p, if it's in your cpu, i'll be amazed
[01:15] <intelikey> vfce4 dli ?
[01:15] <damian__> albinoblacksh33p sorry ~/.wine ~/. is your home directory
[01:15] <heyjoe2> ubushine: ok got rid of them. save as sources.list?
[01:15] <dli> intelikey, xfce4
[01:16] <ubushine> heyjoe2, yes
[01:16] <heyjoe2> ubushine: ok done
[01:16] <damian__> albinoblacksh33p if you think its there i think back to windows for you you'll never get this :)
[01:16] <intelikey> you tried fluxbox  or fvwm dli ?
[01:16] <Mabus06> How do I echo "hi" in green (or any other color)?
[01:16] <ubushine> heyjoe2, sudo apt-get update
[01:16] <dli> intelikey, no, I want a ce, not a wm
[01:16] <moulty> taznam, thanks. how can i disable iptables? i think the firewall has learned to block my isp, longish story, can provide more details if needed
[01:16] <heyjoe2> ubushine: ok in process

[01:18] <heyjoe2> ubushine: only have 256k crappy australian broadband
[01:18] <dli> intelikey, fluxbox is no good for previous windows users, I would try fvwm
[01:18] <ubushine> heyjoe2, sheesh

[01:18] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i do wow
[01:18] <ompaul> Ads_, you can log out and ctrl+alt+backspace
[01:18] <lunari> could anyone help me? none of the wireless monitor gdesklets are showing anything
[01:18] <ompaul> Ads_, then log in again
[01:18] <Ads_> thanks ompaul
[01:19] <lunari> not reporting anything
[01:19] <tazman> I prefer tall crystal glasses
[01:19] <intelikey> dli  fvwm95 if you like
[01:19] <lunari> is there some kind of special setup I have to do ot get them to work?
[01:19] <heyjoe2> ubushine: well for me i think its amazing compared to dialup, 27kb/s, but im aware that theres a lot better out there
[01:19] <lunari> do*
[01:19] <heyjoe2> ubushine: done
[01:19] <dli> intelikey, any other suggestion for windows like wms? it's for an old machine and previously windows-only user
[01:19] <ubushine> heyjoe2, now: apt-cache search frostwire
[01:19] <ubushine> heyjoe2, no errors right?
[01:20] <intelikey> dli  icewm-lite - wonderful Win95-OS/2-Motif-like window manager  <-- well know
[01:20] <heyjoe2> ubushine: right
[01:20] <ubushine> heyjoe2, see frostwire?
[01:20] <heyjoe2> ubushine: nope
[01:20] <dli> intelikey, icewm behaviors badly :( for some reason I don't understand
[01:20] <lunari> How do I get the wireless gdesklets to show the info? They don't display anything
[01:20] <pvd2006> weird, IM on KDE and I Notice that the deskto moved over and then moved back over. I am on Ubuntu and installed KDE seperately.
[01:20] <ubushine> heyjoe2, still not?
[01:20] <heyjoe2> ubushine: unfortunately not
[01:20] <intelikey> dli  you probably don't want kde or gnome for some reason....
[01:20] <pvd2006> Also that image at the top doesnt seem to go away until I use a window to cover it
[01:20] <dli> intelikey, some java program won't open windows in icewm, scim causes many program to hang in icewm
[01:21] <ubushine> heyjoe2, those are the respositories i have and it's there
[01:21] <dli> intelikey, old machine, too slow, and only 192MB ram
[01:21] <lunari> How do I get the wireless gdesklets to show the info? They don't display anything
[01:21] <moulty> tazman, everything now. (other pc) basicly i had firestarter working fine for about 5 hours, then i looked at firewall events, found it has blocked 2 high-rated attacks, took ips, ran whois and port scans, then added to ban rule, looked back at events - now a new ip started slowly scaning me, added it to ban - net stoped working, whois showed this new ip to be my isp, unblocked it, net came back but slowed...
[01:21] <heyjoe2> ubushine: i definitely have the deb file on my desktop
[01:21] <__Little_Wing> i got only 64mb ram and im running ubuntu fine
[01:21] <heyjoe2> ubushine: if thats related at all
[01:21] <ubushine> heyjoe2, well what's the error with dpkg -i?
[01:21] <dli> lunari, gnome-applets has a wireless monitor, just Add applet to Panel
[01:22] <intelikey> dli that's not to little ram for either of those... i have 98m here and p1mmx 100mhz  you can use gnome or kde on that machine.
[01:22] <albinoblacksh33p> i found a wiki thx guys with wine
[01:22] <moulty> tazman .... pages took a long time to find, then would load fast, it got worse over time untill now it wont even DHCP renew! any ideas?
[01:22] <tazman> moulty: iptables -L > pastebin.com
[01:22] <confrey> hi
[01:22] <lunari> dli, I was hoping for something a little nicer to the eyes :)
[01:22] <dli> intelikey, I think you can, but I want to give most ram and cpu to user programs, not the interface
[01:23] <heyjoe2> ubushine: http://pastebin.com/617845
[01:23] <dealt> hi
[01:23] <__Little_Wing> what would be the best desktop gui for a low-spec machine.... (iMac G3 233mhz 64Mb ram
[01:23] <dealt> does gforge run on hoary?
[01:23] <intelikey> hehhe   Mem usage: 17.0/92.4 MB (18%)
[01:23] <IdleOne> __Little_Wing, xfce4 is nice
[01:23] <confrey> how can I copy physically harddisk's sectors to a file? I try with dd but I have I/O error, can I override errors?
[01:23] <intelikey> but i'm not running x atm.
[01:23] <dli> __Little_Wing, the same topic then, try, fluxbox, fvwm, xfce
[01:24] <tazman> moulty: malke that "iptables -L -n" instead, sorry
[01:24] <__Little_Wing> yeah.. got xfce4
[01:24] <moulty> tazman, rgr that :)
[01:24] <IdleOne> __Little_Wing, Im installing icewm right now . you can check that out also
[01:24] <ubushine> heyjoe2, hmmm. never seen that yet
[01:24] <dli> __Little_Wing, great, can you right click on the xfce4 bar items? I found I couldn't
[01:24] <intelikey> __Little_Wing fluxbox xfce4 fvwm twm  icewm-light  any of those.
[01:24] <__Little_Wing> yes
[01:25] <heyjoe2> ubushine: reckon i should try limewire?
[01:25] <ubushine> heyjoe2, there is that. but there's no reason frostwire shouldn't work
[01:25] <dli> __Little_Wing, it should show you a tool menu like, "Properties", "Remove", "Add new Items"
[01:25] <dli> intelikey, no, twm is too light :(
[01:26] <intelikey> not after you learn how to use it.
[01:26] <tazman> moulty: you should read these as well, http://people.netfilter.org/~rusty/unreliable-guides/
[01:27] <moulty> tazman, Chain Input, forward & output all read -  target     prot opt source            destination
[01:28] <ubushine> heyjoe2, try an apt-get clean and apt-get autoclean first then try to install again
[01:28] <Healot>  moulty, firestarter or shorewall, easier
[01:28] <intelikey> i like quick tables my self
[01:28] <moulty> tazman, also all read (policy ACCEPT)
[01:28] <intelikey> i like quicktables my self
[01:28] <tazman> moulty: iptabes is not running
[01:29] <ubushine> heyjoe2, then go for limewire. 'cause i don't recognize that dpkg error
[01:29] <dli> moulty, if you want a general pretection for desktop, not a professional iptables for server, try "apt-get install psad bastille"
[01:29] <tazman> moulty: exactly what is broken?
[01:29] <moulty> tazman, agreed, firestarter reports ethernet card not ready
[01:30] <ubushine> heyjoe2, good luck. gotta run
[01:30] <tazman> moulty: hard to guess what out of a 1000 possible things could be wrong :-)
[01:30] <kbrooks> does ubuntu suck? opinion please
[01:30] <moulty> tazman, now the net, totaly, as said before - slowed over time untill total fail
[01:30] <intelikey> hmmm but if you are not running any services  why would you need any firewall ?
[01:30] <IdleOne> kbrooks, No and take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:30] <moulty> tazman, yeah! sry man, am total linux newbie (1week use)
[01:30] <intelikey> if nothing is listening.....
[01:31] <dli> intelikey, one problem, if I use a wm, how do I build the menu? looks like "menumaker.sf.net" is not in ubuntu
[01:31] <moulty> dli, thx
[01:31] <dli> moulty, indeed, I would try bastille first :)
[01:31] <intelikey> dli i think vfwm has an app for that  let me look.
[01:32] <__Little_Wing> i have no idea how to work IRC!!!
[01:32] <__Little_Wing> aargh
[01:32] <__Little_Wing> annoying
[01:33] <moulty> tazman, i think perhaps either; my isp is blocking that pc on ubuntu because i ran counter scans and whois v my attackers, or; firestarter is blocking my isp somhow
[01:33] <intelikey> dli errr no maybe it's fluxbox
[01:33] <dli> __Little_Wing, I found xchat is quite nice
[01:33] <intelikey> fluxbox - Highly configurable and low resource X11 Window manager
[01:33] <intelikey> fluxconf - FluxBox configuration utility
[01:33] <tazman> moulty: www.pastebin.com
[01:33] <Healot> how about some patience and a lot of READMEs?
[01:33] <__Little_Wing> yeah i got x-chat...
[01:33] <moulty> tazman, to paste what?
[01:33] <__Little_Wing> wish i knew to pm ppl
[01:33] <dli> intelikey, icewm has icepref too, or icecc, icemc
[01:33] <intelikey> Healot forgit it!  no way is that gona happen!
[01:33] <tazman> moulty: take the output of mii-tool etho and put it their
[01:34] <IdleOne> __Little_Wing, /msg nickserv register help < do that
[01:34] <tazman> moulty: than paste the url in here
[01:34] <intelikey> dli yes but you said ice didn't work for you.
[01:34] <tazman> moulty: eth0 not etho
[01:34] <intelikey> dli did you fix it ?
[01:35] <dli> intelikey, no, I think it's some fundamental design problem for icewm :(
[01:35] <intelikey> then don't use it.
[01:35] <Healot> oh he meant how the hell to send msgs to other in the network, bleh
[01:35] <moulty> tazman: it may not possible, other pc cant connect, have no way to transfer data between these two computers on ubuntu yet, windows will network, but not setup ubuntu fully yet
[01:35] <tazman> hehe, one line pastebin, good practice any way
[01:36] <dli> intelikey, but menumaker is auto, like "mmaker fluxbox" to generate the menu for fluxbox
[01:36] <tazman> moulty: do you have a network cable plugged into the machine?
[01:36] <dli> intelikey, Ms supported (case insensitive): Deskmenu, FluxBox, IceWM, OpenBox, OpenBox3, (WindowMaker | WMaker), (XFce | XFwm), (XFce4 | XFdesktop4)
[01:38] <tazman> moulty: type this "/join #moulty"
[01:38] <dli> moulty, you have no network yet?
[01:38] <feugan3333> Hi all. I need to build a kernel module in order to install vmware. Where would I find the correct kernel headers?
[01:38] <IdleOne> whats the command to install multiple packages at ounce?
[01:38] <IdleOne> once*
[01:39] <intelikey> IdleOne sudo apt-get install pack1 pack2 pack3 ....
[01:39] <seraphim> just "apt-get install p1 p2 p3..."
[01:39] <dli> feugan3333, apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[01:39] <anstei> IdleOne, sudo apt-get install package1 package2 ... packageN, just list them
[01:39] <moulty> tazman, this computer is connected to net now by its only network card, windows it setup to connect to net via usb, frees up network card to connect to other pc.  both pcs netrworks only setup in windows :(
[01:39] <IdleOne> intelikey, anstei thanks wasnt sure if it was package1 && package2
[01:40] <Healot> dli, `uname -r` thing doesn't really work well especially in ubuntu...
[01:40] <tazman> moulty: we need to check the link status on your nic card, mii-tool eth0 should tell you if that is ok
[01:40] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[01:40] <moulty> tazman, dli, by the way other pc that will not connect to net in ubuntu will connect to net in windows still.
[01:40] <Healot> just linux-headers, then apt-get will list bunch of candidates :)
[01:40] <dli> Healot, why ubuntu has to hack things like that?
[01:40] <linuxboyfriend> when i give command "sudo apt-cache search mplayer" it is not showing mplayer in results?
[01:41] <tazman> moulty: if you want free help, time is precious, please use it wisely
[01:41] <dli> moulty, i don't understand your english :( use short sentences, english is not my language
[01:41] <feugan3333> dli: Thanks a lot
[01:41] <Healot> the kernel version and the source version are pretty different in ubuntu... beats me, but it compiles OK though
[01:41] <intelikey> IdleOne the command seperator  && tells the system to run the second command only if the first completes without error    i.e.   cmd1 && cmd2     cmd1 runs if exit 0 then cmd2 runs else finished.
[01:41] <dli> feugan3333, does it work?
[01:41] <IdleOne> intelikey, ok thanks. thatas good to know :)
[01:42] <IdleOne> that's*
[01:42] <feugan3333> dli: I'll tell you once it's downloaded :-
[01:42] <moulty> tazman, thanks. just want to explane clearly the problem and my setup
[01:42] <moulty> dli, sorry :)
[01:42] <dli> feugan3333, if it's downloading, that means the command line works
[01:42] <tazman> moulty: don't explain anything, just answer what you are asked, things will go faster
[01:42] <linuxboyfriend> can anyone help me about mplayer installation
[01:42] <linuxboyfriend> ?
[01:42] <moulty> tazman, checking mii-tool
[01:43] <intelikey> IdleOne yes very useful   also  ||   is the inverse    i.e.    cmd1 || cmd2     cmd1 runs if no error finished.  if errors then cmd2 runs.
[01:43] <pvd2006> Hmm, I noticed since I installed KDE desktop that everything runs slower even when i run a gnome session. Even after I removed KDE from synaptic. It made Gnome freeze.
[01:43] <dli> feugan3333, I was warned that the commandline syntax may not work in ubuntu
[01:43] <intelikey> aint linux and bash  kewl
[01:43] <linuxboyfriend> !apt
[01:43] <ubotu> methinks apt is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptGetHowTo/ or http://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals#apt-howto
[01:43] <Healot> aloha, ubuntu
[01:43] <dli> pvd2006, try xfce :) it's fast
[01:44] <dli> pvd2006, apt-get install xfce4
[01:44] <Healot> i prefer korn... it's a shell and a band :0
[01:44] <tazman> rofl
[01:44] <pvd2006> Ill try it out.
[01:45] <intelikey> if you know C then a c shell is good.
[01:45] <IdleOne> intelikey, then sudo apt-get install package || sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list would run first command and if package doesnt install then it will open sources.list in editor right?
[01:45] <moulty> taman, dli, "SIOCGMIIPHY on 'th0' failed: Operation not permitted (also tryed sudo mii-tool eth0)
[01:45] <veldorzvizzerd> hello there, I was wondering if anyone could help me out in getting ubuntu 5.10 to use my internal wireless card? It works in Windows XP and my wireless network is running but I'm unsure as to how to set wireless networking up in ubuntu
[01:45] <Healot> it's the first language I learned, but i hate C
[01:46] <pvd2006> dli, brb going to run it see how ti is.
[01:46] <intelikey> IdleOne you got it.....  i feel like a teacher now...  :)
[01:46] <moulty> tazman dli *eth0* typo
[01:46] <Healot> moulty, "sudo" first
[01:46] <dli> moulty, wa, 3com card?
[01:46] <IdleOne> intelikey, arent we all teachers and students at the same time :)
[01:46] <moulty> Healot, tryed sudo
[01:46] <Healot> veldorzvizzerd, please state the model/brand of your wifi card?
[01:46] <tazman> veldorzvizzerd: I did my Linksys yesterday, was an absolute PITA
[01:46] <intelikey> not all but most.  there are exceptions to every rule
[01:47] <Healot> oh... ok... moulty
[01:47] <moulty> dli, onboard nvidia network card, worked fine for 5 hours
[01:47] <veldorzvizzerd> just a sec...
[01:47] <tazman> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[01:48] <graveson> can anyone help me determine my device file for the sound device
[01:48] <pvd2006> Dli, it is faster, not that pretty though, I like the look of gnome better. But I guess that is the tradeof.
[01:48] <Healot> veldorzvizzerd, btw install "ndiswrapper" and "ndisgtk" if your card is not supported by ubuntu's linux kernel
[01:48] <veldorzvizzerd> the brand is Minitar, just trying to get the model #..
[01:48] <intelikey> graveson cat /proc/asound/cards
[01:48] <Healot> graveson, usually, "/dev/dsp"
[01:48] <moulty> tazman, dli, "SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth0' failed: Operation not permitted (also tryed "sudo mii-tool eth0")
[01:48] <veldorzvizzerd> ndiswrapper, now, sorry but like, I'm new to ubuntu - just got it today so how shall I get ndiswrapper, from the CD or do I need to download it?
[01:48] <Healot> do a "ls -l /dev/dsp"
[01:49] <dli> pvd2006, indeed, all xfce tools are fast
[01:49] <`ph8> Hey guys, I've just installed i8kutils to try and look at enabling/disabling my wireless card on my dell inspiron (it works with a windows 'hotkey' - but obviously this doesn't work in Ubuntu) - I have no /proc/i8k though - does anyone know why this is?
[01:49] <intelikey> Healot i guess that assumes udev ?
[01:49] <tazman> moulty: sudo lspci -v | grep -i Network
[01:49] <Healot> ndiswrapper from the CD, but ndisgtk (the UI tool) from internet
[01:50] <IdleOne> intelikey, looks like I need to give icewm a serious try. already runs faster then xfce4 just not to certain about the windows look and feel but can prolly change that in themes
[01:50] <Healot> yeah... udev
[01:50] <veldorzvizzerd> ok, thanks, will do that now and get back to ya
[01:50] <veldorzvizzerd> cheers healot
[01:50] <intelikey> IdleOne yeah and i like fluxbox too
[01:50] <dli> moulty, forcdeth
[01:51] <UH^MERLIN> i just found this
[01:51] <UH^MERLIN> Konversation IRC client, its nice
[01:51] <javaTard> Anyone running Mono with Ubuntu?
[01:51] <UH^MERLIN> i was using GAIM
[01:51] <UH^MERLIN> =D
[01:51] <IdleOne> intelikey, couldnt get fluxbox working for some reason . all I got was a black screen and no right click menu or anything
[01:52] <Healot> veldorzvizzerd, use "synaptic" if you're not sure about packages you need to install
[01:52] <intelikey> Konversation UH^MERLIN yeah... xchat irssi epic BitchX
[01:52] <Healot> javaTard, CLI thing?
[01:52] <Healot> I do CLI on Windows only
[01:52] <intelikey> hmmm IdleOne that's odd.
[01:52] <IdleOne> brb
[01:52] <pasion2006> like
[01:52] <dli> moulty, try to compile your own kernel with the newest kernel source (2.6.16 at kernel.org)
[01:53] <misfit> Hi all
[01:53] <pasion2006> hello
[01:53] <javaTard> Healot, no taking an online web design class in college that requires ASP.Net and other .NET structures
[01:53] <Healot> hi pasion2006
[01:53] <intelikey> well guys looks like my time is gone.   be back next time   good day and God bless.
[01:53] <javaTard> Healot,and dont want to torrent XP Pro so I can run IIS
[01:53] <moulty> tazman, dli, "000:04:0a.0 Network controller: Texas Instrements ACX 111 54Mbps Wireless Interface"!!!! ok thats my other card, not setup to connect to internet.
[01:53] <misfit> I am thinking of switching my linux distro to Ubuntu but wanted to check out the community first :D
[01:54] <Healot> oh, javaTard... you wanna run CLI forms and application on Ubuntu?
[01:54] <UH^MERLIN> are there any C++ compilers or clients where i can script/compile my work with Ubuntu built in?
[01:54] <Healot> torrent XP pro, hehe
[01:54] <Healot> javaTard, CLI works with Apache too...
[01:54] <_jason> UH^MERLIN: g++ is a compiler, just install build-essential package
[01:54] <javaTard> Healot yea, my college can get me a free copy of XP Pro, but it'll take weeks, which is stupid
[01:54] <Healot> well.. on Windows only though
[01:54] <tazman> moulty: that is your problem, your nic card was either not detected or is unsupported
[01:55] <javaTard> Healot, I'll google CLI, maybe it is more than I thought it was
[01:55] <UH^MERLIN> jason it will only me to code whatever i need and compile correct?
[01:55] <UH^MERLIN> allow*
[01:55] <misfit> I have a quick question. When a new version of Ubuntu is released, how easy is it to update?
[01:55] <pasion2006> creative soud card ??why not support
[01:55] <Healot> CLI forms are nonexistent on Linux's Apache
[01:55] <Healot> the module is available on for Windows' version of Apache
[01:55] <mikey> I have problems.
[01:55] <_jason> UH^MERLIN: yes, just write your code in any text editor and then compile it with 'g++ -o outputfilename myscriptIwrote.cc
[01:56] <mikey> I am trying to run the ubuntu installer on my computer here, and the installer never loads
[01:56] <_jason> UH^MERLIN: yes, just write your code in any text editor and then compile it with 'g++ -o outputfilename myscriptIwrote.cc'
[01:56] <dli> misfit, "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade", with corrected /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:56] <mikey> the ubuntu splash screen loads, for the installer. I hit enter to do the default installation, and it says loading linuzsomething, then initrd, and then it says uncompressing something, then booting the linux kernel
[01:56] <Healot> me too, mikey :)
[01:56] <UH^MERLIN> thanx jason
[01:56] <mikey> thenuke, my computer reboots
[01:56] <mikey> then i'm returned back to the installation screen
[01:56] <mikey> soop, i hit enter again, and it's the same thing, over again
[01:56] <moulty> tazman, odd, it worked without error for at least 5 hours untill the attack and such.
[01:56] <misfit> I am using Slackware at the moment. While I love it, it's hard to keep everything updated (also I am semi noob/casual linux user) :D
[01:56] <mikey> ignore thenuke and soop
[01:56] <mikey> stupid xchat autonick replacement
[01:57] <misfit> thanks dli ^_^
[01:57] <javaTard> Healot, well if I use Windows, as I have Home Edition on one, but I cant serve or set up virtual folders in XP Home. But it seems I can with Mono
[01:57] <misfit> brb the wife is calling :D
[01:57] <mikey> okay, so somebody help me?
[01:57] <tazman> moulty: attack ???
[01:57] <sfar-ubu> mikey: it reboots directly after you hit enter?
[01:57] <UH^MERLIN> @ jason, does the g++ allow for GUI code? Building and assembling UI's?
[01:58] <mikey> no, it says it's extracting two things
[01:58] <terabyte> weee!!
[01:58] <mikey> not extracting, loading
[01:58] <mikey> then it says it's uncompressing something, and booting the linux kernel
[01:58] <mikey> and then it reboots
[01:58] <terabyte> hey.... erm.... ubuntu worked in my pc..... <ok im new to ubuntu>
[01:58] <misfit> back. The live cd will give me a good idea of how well it will work on my system?
[01:58] <terabyte> but i have a problem
[01:58] <altos> mikey: have almost the same problem... computer freezes trying to install packages or gives some dump
[01:59] <Healot> Mono + apache? javaTard
[01:59] <mikey> altos, yeah, i don't even get there.
[01:59] <terabyte> with the sound
[01:59] <_jason> UH^MERLIN: I'm sure it does, I've never done that though.  ##c++ may be able to help you more
[01:59] <pasion2006> who can help me?
[01:59] <_jason> !helpme
[01:59] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[01:59] <javaTard> Healot, yea. Problem is the info on configuring Mono is spotty at best
[01:59] <UH^MERLIN> thanx @ jason
[02:00] <Matthewv> pasion2006,  ask a question to see who can help you
[02:00] <Healot> pasion2006, state the version of your soundcard model... Creative <>?
[02:00] <moulty> tazman, it checked firestarters events list after the 5 hours without error, it had blocked 2 attacks hours before....
[02:00] <moulty> tazman I checked* not it
[02:00] <terabyte> can you guys help me with configuring my soundcard in ubuntu??
[02:00] <Healot> tedious, javaTard ?
[02:01] <ic56> mickey: sounds like your motherboard dislikes your kernel.  Maybe try a different version of ubuntu?
[02:01] <`ph8> Hey guys, I've just installed i8kutils to try and look at enabling/disabling my wireless card on my dell inspiron (it works with a windows 'hotkey' - but obviously this doesn't work in Ubuntu) - I have no /proc/i8k though - does anyone know why this is?
[02:01] <moulty> tazman, ..... then i blocked the attackers ips and ran whois and port scans on the attackers ips.....
[02:01] <altos> mickey: maybe you should use noacpi option?
[02:01] <mikey> altos, tried that
[02:01] <terabyte> acpi=off
[02:01] <tazman> lol, what good is that going to do?
[02:01] <mikey> and it's not mickey
[02:01] <mikey> it's mikey
[02:01] <pasion2006> Audigy 2zs modle
[02:01] <mikey> i'm not a mouse.
[02:01] <javaTard> Healot, well, not so much as documentation on it is hard to find. Was looking to see if someone had any good tutes besides mono projects website or wiki. I have t installed and running but ASP.net files dont work right on it
[02:01] <freedom> hello i have a problem with agp : (EE) fglrx(0): [agp]  unable to acquire AGP, error "xf86_ENODEV"
[02:02] <moulty> tazman, then a new ip started scanning me, i blocked it, the internet stoped working, i ran whois on new ip= was from my ISP.....
[02:02] <pasion2006> who  used it
[02:02] <altos> mikey: exuse me misspelling
[02:02] <freedom> and i find a solution xD
[02:02] <mikey> ic56, i also had this problem installing fedora
[02:02] <terabyte> try acpi=off in grub
[02:02] <Healot> i'll look for that... pasion2006
[02:02] <mikey> only fedora displayed an error.
[02:02] <tazman> moulty: /etc/init.d/iptables stop
[02:02] <mikey> http://the.photos.cx/P1010002-1142989708.JPG
[02:02] <mikey> that's what i got with fedora
[02:03] <ic56> mikey: try a different kernel version.  Presumably you were trying to install a 2.6 Linux kernel.  Try a distro that includes a 2.4 verion.  I think the current knoppix liveCD includes both 2.4 and 2.6 kernels.
[02:03] <misfit> The ubuntu install is only one disc?
[02:03] <_jason> misfit: yes, then there are online repositories for more software
[02:03] <misfit> Ah, ok :D
[02:03] <misfit> Thanks
[02:03] <moulty> tazman, ... when i unblocked my ISP's IP, net came back slowed, and got worse untill now it will not DHCP renew at all, and ubuntu cant find the card, you've showen.
[02:04] <tazman> moulty: unless ubuntu has dome something really stupid in their kernel, one has nothing to do with the other
[02:04] <Healot> pasion2006, try to obtain your Linux driver at opensource.creative.com

[02:12] <kaffegraut> I'm from europe.
[02:12] <_jason> maestre: what country?
[02:12] <ic56> !justask
[02:12] <ubotu> ubotu says: ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[02:12] <Healot> allison_1984, it should be available to you during install, try to look at file manager... there supposed to be some "hd*" links
[02:13] <dli> terabyte, sound is easy, probably, ubuntu can get sound auto
[02:13] <allison_1984> Healot> thing is I have the partition mounted but I am not able to write to it
[02:13] <milan> hello everyone
[02:13] <kaffegraut> Well, my sound is'nt working.
[02:13] <terabyte> nah, it didnt when i tried live
[02:13] <dli> terabyte, modem is just another story, unless you are lucky to have some hardware modem or linmodem there
[02:13] <kaffegraut> It can play files from the system, like wave-files and stuff.
[02:13] <ic56> !justask
[02:13] <ubotu> Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[02:13] <dli> terabyte, lspci, find your audio controller
[02:13] <Healot> allison_1984, "cat /etc/fstab" for me, and paste it to the pastebin
[02:13] <misfit> I had to use linuxant drivers for my laptop -_- but worked very nicely
[02:14] <Healot> !pastebin
[02:14] <ubotu> [pastebin]  a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[02:14] <moulty> tazman: so should be "sudo /etc/init.d/iptables stop"?     thats came back as "sudo/etc/init.d/iptables stop: command not found"
[02:14] <allison_1984> Healot> I am on man mount wiki...its too confusing for me
[02:14] <milan> I have a problem with sound in dapper...
[02:14] <terabyte> and ohh, cant run ubuntu when acpi=on
[02:14] <allison_1984> Healot> ok
[02:14] <dli> terabyte, also, find your modem there, (pci modem)
[02:14] <kaffegraut> The thing is, it seems the programs cant get any contact with the soundcard or something..
[02:14] <Healot> I know it is
[02:14] <tazman> moulty: cd /etc/init.d
[02:14] <Healot> read about that pastebin, allison_1984, click on the link and send the output to that site
[02:15] <kaffegraut> Anybody who can help me?
[02:15] <milan> I had to update to dapper because of missing libs, and the sound just stopped working...
[02:15] <terabyte> im runnig ubuntu in acpi=off, does it affect my pc card services>>??
[02:15] <milan> I dont get any error
[02:15] <imc_> Morning. Here's a dumb non-ubuntu question: what's the macintosh desktop search feature which begins showing results as you type?
[02:15] <useruser> imc_: spotlight, i think
[02:15] <kaffegraut> milan: Well i guess thats what my problem is as well then.
[02:15] <milan> imc_: you can get that with katapult
[02:15] <imc_> Ah, yes, useruser thanks!
[02:16] <Healot> milan, bugs in testing release is really out of our control
[02:16] <imc_> katapult, eh? Is that a front end for slocate?
[02:16] <milan> imc_: i dont know
[02:16] <milan> imc_: u can run it with alt-space
[02:16] <imc_> milan, thanks though that's interesting.
[02:17] <kaffegraut> milan: Can you play sounds from your system?
[02:17] <milan> kaffegraut: it looks like it is ok, no error anywhere... all programs work.. but no sound
[02:18] <kaffegraut> Have you tried playing sounds from where you choose login and logout sounds?
[02:18] <milan> kaffegraut: not really
[02:18] <kaffegraut> Try it, se if that works.
[02:18] <mikey> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=853874#post853874
[02:18] <mikey> i posted there.
[02:18] <mikey> and now i go to bed
[02:18] <milan> kaffegraut: i use kde, so i suppose you mean knotify?
[02:19] <useruser> kaffegraut: did you check the volume control?
[02:19] <kaffegraut> I have no fookin idea man, i use ubuntu with gnome and think that is just as confusing.
[02:19] <allison_1984> Healot> http://pastebin.com/617904
[02:19] <kaffegraut> useruser: i've checked the volumethingy a bunch of times, no effect.
[02:19] <milan> the volume is fine, i'm sure
[02:20] <kaffegraut> The thing is, i can play like the login sounds and stuff, but not sound in any programs or nothing.
[02:20] <kaffegraut> Or mp3's for that matter.
[02:20] <KoopaPoopa> hey guys... i've looked everywhere i can find but can't figure it out. is there a way i can run a graphical program (amule in this case) in the background on startup? so no matter who's logged in (or not) it'll be downloading?
[02:21] <milan> Healot: i dont mind waiting till dapper gets released... will u be able to help me then?
[02:21] <useruser> kaffegraut: maybe esd isn't running and it should be? (guess)
[02:21] <kaffegraut> useruser: what is esd then?
[02:21] <moulty> tazman, "iptables stop = "Bad argument 'stop' " also iptables -h --help shows no such command
[02:21] <_jason> kaffegraut: for mp3's you need to install gstreamer0.8-mad from universe.  Are you using esd as the sound output in system > preferences > multimedia systems selector?
[02:21] <useruser> kaffegraut: it's a sound mixer
[02:23] <kaffegraut> _jason: no idea, have to check that out, i've got a norwegian ubuntu, so i guess you mean that soundthingy with a speakricon?
[02:23] <Healot> allison_1984, your windows partitions are NTFS... technically Linux does not support writing on such partitions
[02:23] <kaffegraut> usersuer: where do i find this mixer then?
[02:23] <_jason> kaffegraut: yeah
[02:23] <useruser> kaffegraut: do what _jason said
[02:24] <_jason> kaffegraut: actually there are two icons with a speaker.  Try the smaller speaker
[02:24] <Enthusiast78> Does anybody know where I can get some information about 'ext3 x reiserfs'?
[02:24] <macdonsp> hey
[02:24] <kaffegraut> well it says something like: activate mixing in software (ESD)
[02:24] <useruser> Enthusiast78: google's bound to have lots
[02:24] <kaffegraut> is that 'sposed to be on?
[02:24] <moulty> tazman, "iptables v1.3.3"
[02:24] <macdonsp> are there any livecd releases of ubuntu that have gcc available
[02:24] <ic56> wsay KoopaPoopa 1 Yes, it's possible but it's tricky.  No one is supposed to gain access to the GUI unless they're logged in.  If someone does, it's a potential security breach.  Better to look for a command line alternative.

[02:25] <_jason> kaffegraut: there's nothing wrong with using it.  It lets you play mutliple sounds at once.  You have to make sure you tell your programs to use esd as the output.  Does totem give you sound?
[02:25] <k31th> (tested by removing 1 disk and booting etc), is there a way i can redo the array or resync the disks ?
[02:25] <kaffegraut> Totem is like no.. it doesnt.
[02:26] <Healot> allison_1984, run "sudo /dev/hda" for me
[02:26] <Enthusiast78> Also, has anybody tried the LVM installation in Ubuntu? Is there some information in the Ubuntu Wiki about it?
[02:26] <Shukhrat_> hello everybody! one simple question for linux gurus: can linux read .chm (compiled help file) ?
[02:26] <allison_1984> Healot> I am aware of the ntfs extension read only access
[02:26] <allison_1984> Healot> ok
[02:26] <useruser> Shukhrat_: yes it can
[02:26] <patrick522> does any ine know a programme that will be able to control my fans in my ideq cube pc
[02:26] <dli> Shukhrat_, apt-get install xchm
[02:26] <_jason> kaffegraut: try playing /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav in totem
[02:26] <Healot> good...
[02:27] <Shukhrat_> another question: can Linux compile such a file .chm
[02:27] <Shukhrat_> thanks, guys!
[02:27] <Healot> Shukhrat_, it's not the OS task, it is the application task,,,
[02:27] <kaffegraut> _jason: that actually worked.
[02:27] <Enthusiast78> And what about XFS? Is anybody using XFS in Ubuntu?
[02:27] <Healot> you can find CHM compiler out there... mostly for Windows, use Wine if you love CHM |:)
[02:27] <_jason> kaffegraut: what files don't work?
[02:27] <patrick522> does any ine know a programme that can control the cooling fans inside a pc
[02:28] <kaffegraut> _jason: and gstreamer0.8-mad is installed.
[02:28] <kaffegraut> Well, things like mp3's and stuff dont work.
[02:28] <Healot> allison_1984, change the line "/dev/hda5 /media/hda5 ntfs ro,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0"
[02:28] <allison_1984> Healot> says..no such file or directory
[02:28] <dli> Shukhrat_, .chm is microsoft
[02:28] <_jason> kaffegraut: close totem, open a terminal and run 'gst-register-0.8', then try totem with an mp3 again
[02:28] <Healot> to "/dev/hda5 /media/hda5 vfat rw,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0"
[02:28] <Healot> what? allison_1984 ?
[02:29] <patrick522> does any ine know a programme that can control the cooling fans inside a pc
[02:29] <allison_1984> Healot> when I run "dev/hda"
[02:29] <macdonsp> Does anyone know of any LiveCD distributions that have both gcc and qt?
[02:29] <Healot> haha
[02:29] <kaffegraut> _jason: didnt work, and it said: Audio codec 'MPEG 1 Layer 3 CBR' is not handled. You might need to install additional plugins to be able to play some types of movies
[02:30] <misfit> Wish me luck. I am going to let the Ubuntu disks download then hopefully, next time you see me, I will be on Ubuntu :D
[02:30] <Healot> sorry, "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda", yeah you've done it
[02:30] <_jason> kaffegraut: you are using breezy?
[02:30] <misfit> laterz
[02:30] <kaffegraut> _jason: what's breezy? dont think so, no?
[02:30] <_jason> kaffegraut: what does 'lsb_release -c' say?
[02:31] <kaffegraut> Codename:       dapper
[02:31] <Healot> macdonsp, Knoppix!
[02:31] <patrick522> does any one know of a utility that can monitor and configure CPU/System fans
[02:31] <kaffegraut> _jason: so i guess you mean, ubuntu then.
[02:32] <dli> Healot, knoppix dvd?
[02:32] <kaffegraut> _jason: i'm running ubuntu with dapper draker or something.
[02:32] <Healot> it runs on KDE(which is QT-based desktop) and a lot of compiler tools... macdonsp
[02:32] <ic56> kaffergraut: breezy is Ubuntu 5.10 aka breezy badger.
[02:32] <_jason> kaffegraut: try #ubuntu+1 for help with dapper.  The codecs have changed
[02:32] <macdonsp> Healot:
[02:32] <macdonsp> thanks
[02:32] <sugoruyo> hi all can anyone suggest repos to add to my sources.list?
[02:32] <kaffegraut> sp i should connect to #ubuntu+1 then?
[02:32] <Healot> dli, not sure, but DVD sure contains compiler tools and KDe...
[02:32] <ic56> kaffergraut: dapper is the one after breezy
[02:32] <_jason> kaffegraut: yeah just type: /join #ubuntu+1
[02:32] <kaffegraut> like in / join #ubuntu+1 ?
[02:33] <kaffegraut> right, i'll remember that for tomorrow, i have to go deliver and stuff now.
[02:33] <Healot> no space between "/" and "join"
[02:33] <kaffegraut> _jason: thanks for the help mate!
[02:34] <kaffegraut> healot: i know, i just used it in case it took it as a command or something.
[02:34] <sugoruyo> i'm interested in having programming tools, desktop customization apps and general applications available. I'd also like some codecs and ms ttf fonts as well as the nvidia driver
[02:34] <soundray> patrick522: there is mbmon and lm-sensors
[02:34] <patrick522> do these work
[02:34] <useruser> sugoruyo: you could try easyubuntu
[02:34] <soundray> patrick522: depends on your board
[02:34] <sugoruyo> useruser, what is that?
[02:35] <useruser> sugoruyo: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[02:35] <soundray> !easyubuntu
[02:35] <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
[02:35] <patrick522> i have an ideq cube pc
[02:35] <soundray> patrick522: I suggest you try mbmon first, because it's a simple install from the repos and doesn't require kernel modules.
[02:35] <sugoruyo> easybuntu sounds good i'll try it
[02:35] <patrick522> where do i get it
[02:36] <sugoruyo> but i'd like to enrich my sources.list anyway
[02:36] <soundray> patrick522: read my reply.
[02:36] <soundray> patrick522: apt-get install mbmobn
[02:36] <soundray> *mbmon
[02:37] <allison_1984> Healot> still there ?
[02:37] <soundray> patrick522: I hear the ideq is a howler (ie. noisy) -- is it true?
[02:37] <Healot> yes///
[02:37] <patrick522> with out the programme to stop it is
[02:37] <allison_1984> Healot> keeps returning ...no such file or directory
[02:38] <Healot> what in the world did you type? you made me confused :-
[02:38] <soundray> patrick522: mbmon and lm-sensors are for monitoring only.
[02:38] <patrick522> is there a program to slow down or make quiet
[02:39] <Healot> yes.. mostly for Windows...
[02:39] <allison_1984> Healot>allison_1984, change the line "/dev/hda5 /media/hda5 ntfs ro,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0 < this
[02:39] <soundray> patrick522: it is possible that you can view/set your fan settings via acpi. See if you get any output from /proc/acpi/fan -- if you do, it means you probably can.
[02:39] <KoopaPoopa> heya ic56... um, i'd be happy to do it from the command line, but if i run amule on a terminal it complains there's no GUI, i don't need to press any buttons or look at it, so is there a way to make it ignore that?
[02:39] <ic56> ubuntu froze during installation while copying packages to the harddisk.  I suspect a motherboard problem because the computer's owner (a friend) said the box would crash under windows.  Is there a way to run diagnostics on the board?
[02:39] <MekanzoO> question: how do I extract rar files?
[02:39] <zuokanyunqi> where can i find "CJK-lyx"

[02:40] <phreak97> is it possible to force a refresh rate under ubuntu?
[02:40] <patrick522> what do i do
[02:40] <soundray> ic56: easiest to test is the memory. Use memtest86 on the disk.
[02:40] <allison_1984> Healot> ok...thanks ....

[02:40] <Healot> hey you do script better than me, but you know nothing about fstab? allison_1984, this is pretty confusing... for me
[02:40] <Healot> allison_1984, you missed the previous lines, aren't you?
[02:41] <phreak97> i KNOW my monitor supports 1280x960 70Hz, but ubuntu picks it up as 60Hz max
[02:41] <phreak97> which is not comfortable on my eyes
[02:41] <Grout58> anyone know if wine will run counter strike?
[02:41] <ic56> KoopaPoopa: you'll have to find a different program.  Perhaps amule is built on top of a commandline program which you can use directly?
[02:41] <patrick522> where do i get/download acpi
[02:41] <phreak97> Grout58, theres cs for linux, why emulate?
[02:41] <onkarshinde> phreak97: you can manually modify xorg.conf.
[02:42] <Grout58> really?
[02:42] <allison_1984> Healot> I was reading the wiki on mounting partitions...thats where it came from...just got me confused too because the same partition is ntfs in one and fat32 in another
[02:42] <soundray> patrick522: you really need to read the replies you are getting here.
[02:42] <Healot> Grout58, not wine, maybe cedega (the branch)
[02:42] <phreak97> onkarshinde, can you help me? i've tried with no success
[02:42] <phreak97> Grout58, yeah
[02:42] <allison_1984> Healot> when running the various commands
[02:42] <phreak97> i was thinking of getting it
[02:42] <soundray> patrick522: if you don't, and keep asking questions that have been answered for you, it tends to p... people off.
[02:42] <Healot> bleh wikiwikiwiki
[02:42] <Grout58> prreak97 is it the new one or old one?
[02:42] <soundray> patrick522: now enter 'ls /proc/acpi/fan/' and see if that lists any files.
[02:42] <patrick522> ok will read again
[02:42] <phreak97> Grout58, i dont know
[02:42] <phreak97> google
[02:43] <onkarshinde> phreak97: You must beseeing some entries at bottom of xorg.conf which specify resolution, colour depth and frequency. Add your own entry for the frequency you are specifying.
[02:43] <bilbeat> bonjours les gens
[02:43] <allison_1984> Healot> hah ! this room is dyanmic..what can I say
[02:43] <zuokanyunqi> where can i find the "CJK-lyx" package
[02:43] <IdleOne> !fr
[02:43] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:43] <patrick522> it comes up with FAN in blue
[02:43] <onkarshinde> zuokanyunqi: what is that/
[02:43] <Healot> beats me, allison_1984
[02:44] <phreak97> whats xorg.conf's path again? i gorget
[02:44] <soundray> patrick522: that means there is another directory. Try 'ls /proc/acpi/fan/FAN/'
[02:44] <phreak97> forget
[02:44] <zuokanyunqi> to input chinese  using lyx
[02:44] <onkarshinde> phreak97: 'sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[02:44] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, you can use xim/scim/uim to input chinese...
[02:44] <soundray> patrick522: and use my nick, so my client can highlight your line for me.
[02:44] <patrick522> then i get state
[02:44] <patrick522> soundray: then i get state
[02:44] <bilbeat> #ubuntu.fr
[02:44] <sugoruyo> quick question: i'm trying easyubuntu now
[02:44] <soundray> patrick522: okay, try 'cat /proc/acpi/fan/FAN/state'
[02:45] <Fuzzy76> I'm running breezy, but apt-cache can't seem to find all packages in the tree. I've done apt-get update. Any ideas?
[02:45] <IdleOne> bilbeat, tape /join #ubuntu-fr
[02:45] <zuokanyunqi> no is not a input method ,just to let lyx can read chinese
[02:45] <sugoruyo> but synaptic is warning me about what changes will occur
[02:45] <phreak97> onkarshinde, how do i add refresh rates? as it is there are only resolutions
[02:45] <bilbeat> hello guy and how can i do to connect to ubuntu fr
[02:45] <onkarshinde> Fuzzy76: what package are you trying to find? Can you paste your sources.list in pastebin?
[02:45] <graveson> can anyone help me ,i am receiving audio errors with audacity
[02:45] <sugoruyo> and it says it will remove the ubuntu-desktop package which if i'm not mistaken would be the actual GNOME desktop
[02:45] <IdleOne> sugoruyo, you want synaptic to do that so you can review and make sure that the changes being made are what you want
[02:45] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, try lynx-cur
[02:46] <patrick522> soundray: says state is on
[02:46] <Healot> but don't ask me how to set that up :)
[02:46] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, what is that
[02:46] <davro> Fuzzy76 look at your /etc/apt/source.list, proberly need to uncomment some stuff.
[02:46] <sugoruyo> IdleOne, of course that's what i'm saying
[02:46] <Fuzzy76> onkarshinde, apt-cache search ident returns zero packages
[02:46] <soundray> graveson: try stopping esd and/or artsd before you run audacity
[02:46] <onkarshinde> phreak97: I don't remember exactly. But there is some paramet that specifies refresh rates. If you can't find, check 'man xorg.conf'
[02:46] <IdleOne> sugoruyo, :) k then
[02:46] <sugoruyo> IdleOne, it says it'll remove ubuntu-desktop can that be a good thing?
[02:46] <bilbeat> comment faire pour se connecter a ubuntu fr
[02:46] <ic56> bilbeat: try typing: /join #ubuntu-fr
[02:46] <Healot> to set the language to read, install "lynx-cur-wrapper"
[02:46] <IdleOne> sugoruyo,  depends what you are trying to do
[02:46] <soundray> patrick522: try 'sudo echo off >/proc/acpi/fan/FAN/state'. This should turn the fan off.
[02:46] <darkraven> can i install ati-drivers (fglrx) in dapper with the ati-installer (build packages) and module assistant?
[02:47] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, it's lynx with "country code/nls" support...
[02:47] <onkarshinde> Fuzzy76: please paste your sources.list into pastebin
[02:47] <zuokanyunqi> does that support chinese
[02:47] <graveson> soundray:pardon my ignorance ,but what is esd
[02:47] <patrick522> soundray: says bash: /proc/acpi/fan/FAN/state: Permission denied
[02:47] <soundray> darkraven, better to follow ubotu's links:
[02:47] <soundray> !ati
[02:47] <ubotu> methinks ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589

[02:47] <onkarshinde> !esd
[02:47] <onkarshinde> !tell graveson about esd

[02:48] <laespero> saluton chiuj!
[02:48] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, not lynx, lyx
[02:48] <soundray> patrick522: did you use the 'sudo' like I suggested?
[02:48] <laespero> how can I get a mac osX like docker?
[02:48] <sugoruyo> IdleOne, i sure as hell didn't ask it to remove anything

[02:49] <laespero> I suppose it is possibel
[02:49] <Healot> lynx-cur, zuokanyunqi
[02:49] <IdleOne> sugoruyo,  what did you do for it to tell you that it was going to remove ubuntu-desktop?
[02:50] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, try lynx-cur" < didn't I say that before?
[02:50] <onkarshinde> laespero: I am not sure what docker is. Are you talking about those tiny widgets on desktop?
[02:50] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, i am not looking for a www browser
[02:50] <YogSothoth> Hi
[02:50] <laespero> onkarshinde: the launchbar of apple on the bottom

[02:50] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, LyX - The Document Processor,
[02:50] <onkarshinde> laespero: I don't think there is any such thing in Linux.
[02:50] <pimp^air> hi
[02:50] <darkraven> soundray, ok thx for tipps, i tried it, but not with the 2.6.16 yet
[02:51] <Healot> type it in LaTeX... small capital confused
[02:51] <Shukhrat_> i have russian-made RoverBook laptop. when i tried live cd of Ubuntu, it didn't recognize my built-in modem. Anyone can help me?
[02:51] <soundray> patrick522: okay, do you have any files other than state in the FAN directory?
[02:51] <pimp^air> can one explain the difference between libswt3.1-gtk-jni and libswt-gtk-3.1-jni
[02:51] <ubuntu> hi
[02:51] <pimp^air> eclipse requires the former, azureus the latter
[02:51] <MekanzoO> question: my laptop runs really hot with ubuntu... the fan doesnt work... any idea how to fix this?
[02:51] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, just isntall chinese fonts
[02:51] <ubuntu> I need some help with the expresso installer
[02:51] <ubuntu> when I get to the partition part
[02:51] <onkarshinde> pimp^air: One of them must be a dummy/transitional package which depends on another
[02:51] <pimp^air> MekanzoO: the fan should always work as they should be hardwired...
[02:51] <ubuntu> I try to set the partitions to there mount points
[02:52] <zuokanyunqi> Healot,  ,i can't input chinese ,
[02:52] <pimp^air> onkarshinde: no, installing the latter removes the former
[02:52] <patrick522> soundray: No i dont only shows state
[02:52] <soundray> MekanzoO: scroll back over the conversation I had with patrick522. Might give you ideas.
[02:52] <YogSothoth> I'd like to use snippetMagic from http://tinyurl.com/lcwr8 so I can use TextMate-like snippets in Vim in my Ruby scripts. But it requires Vim with Ruby support. I can find a vim-ruby package for Debian but not for Ubuntu. How should I do?
[02:52] <MekanzoO> oh ok.. .but somehow the laptop is very2 hot... when running ubuntu
[02:52] <ubuntu> and it just reloads the partitioner and says <big> dispositivos dupicados </big>
[02:52] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, when i input ,it display nothing
[02:52] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, then isntall. scim/xim,uim...
[02:52] <pimp^air> ubuntu: model?
[02:52] <overrider> pimp^air, but fans are listening to maybe some acpi function
[02:52] <sugoruyo> IdleOne, the only thing i checked that could be relevant was for it give a GNOME look/fell to KDE apps
[02:52] <sugoruyo> and install NVidia driver
[02:52] <Healot> change your locale to chinese too...
[02:52] <Shukhrat_> i have russian-made RoverBook laptop. when i tried live cd of Ubuntu, it didn't recognize my built-in modem. Anyone can help me?
[02:52] <MekanzoO> ok....
[02:53] <overrider> pimp^air, so when it isnt hot enough, acpi doesnt turn on the fan, same thing on my laptop
[02:53] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, i can input chinese in other editors
[02:53] <Healot> copy and paste?
[02:53] <pimp^air> overrider: why not make it hardwired to a sensor... hot is hot and should not be configurable... stupid manufactureres..
[02:54] <soundray> MekanzoO, overrider, patrick522, pimp^air: Fans seem to be THE subject today ;)
[02:54] <onkarshinde> pimp^air: Eclipse in Ubuntu repos is horribly slow. I don't know why. Install Eclipse from eclipse.org.
[02:54] <overrider> pimp^air, because laptop makers probably want to keep them as quite as possible
[02:54] <pimp^air> hehe
[02:54] <pimp^air> overrider: right
[02:54] <pimp^air> overrider: but hot is hot...
[02:54] <Shukhrat_> gnomefreak:
[02:54] <MekanzoO> I have nothing on /proc/acpi/fan
[02:54] <pimp^air> theres a point when the fan should start turning... and this is free of any discussable issues... the cpu is to hot -> start the fan..
[02:54] <pimp^air> one sensor, one transistor, some wires..
[02:55] <overrider> pimp^air, so maybe ubuntu is having a problem with his laptops acpi
[02:55] <Shukhrat_> Ng:
[02:55] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, btw try to compile/install cjk lyx at lyx's website
[02:55] <kingspwned> any way to control what happens when you close the lid of your laptop without having acpi-support in the kernel?
[02:55] <Shukhrat_> Ng: are you here friend
[02:55] <Healot> ftp://cellular.phys.pusan.ac.kr/CJK-LyX/qt >> cjk lyx for qt
[02:56] <patrick522> my fans working but its dam to noisy
[02:56] <graveson> soundray: i am trying to use audacity to copy audio tapes ,but when pressing record i get "error while opening sound device" any ideas ?
[02:56] <pimp^air> but then a business-clerk comes saying: oh, well, if we could make a driver to control the fan, this driver could brake, which in turn would fsck up the whole cpu-thingy... and we could charge the user for a new one...
[02:56] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, is not there a deb package?
[02:56] <Healot> alien the rpm package
[02:56] <Shukhrat_> SOS! SOS! i have russian-made RoverBook laptop. when i tried live cd of Ubuntu, it didn't recognize my built-in modem. Anyone can help me?
[02:56] <Healot> as easy as that

[02:57] <soundray> graveson, did you stop esd like I suggested?
[02:57] <onkarshinde> Shukhrat_: what is output of lspci command. Can you identify your modem?
[02:57] <IdleOne> Shukhrat_, go to System > Administration > Networking and make sure that your eht0 is enabled
[02:57] <IdleOne> eth0*
[02:57] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, do you now how can i make a deb myself
[02:57] <graveson> soundray: yes i stopped that daemon
[02:57] <onkarshinde> IdleOne: how does a in built modem relates to eth0?
[02:57] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, "alien <filename>"
[02:57] <IdleOne> onkarshinde, yeah your right
[02:57] <Shukhrat_> onkarshinde: what is lspci?
[02:58] <Healot> then it will convert that rpm/tar file to debian package
[02:58] <soundray> patrick522, have you looked at the options in the BIOS setup?
[02:58] <IdleOne> didnt read carefully
[02:58] <patrick522> will try
[02:58] <jetscreamer> try typing lspci
[02:58] <jetscreamer> ls ... hmmm
[02:58] <soundray> patrick522, this article mentions them: http://www.2cpu.com/articles/8_3.html
[02:58] <onkarshinde> Shukhrat_: Open terminal from Applications->Acessories and type command lspci
[02:58] <Healot> if "alien" is not found, maybe the UFO hasn't come yet :)
[02:58] <jetscreamer> pci, what's that
[02:58] <patrick522> you mean when computer starts up
[02:58] <Healot> nay, install "alien"
[02:58] <soundray> patrick522: yes.
[02:58] <Shukhrat_> onkarshinde: what wil happen then?
[02:59] <onkarshinde> jetscreamer: I guess PCI is Periferal component Interface.
[02:59] <jetscreamer> try lspci | more then
[02:59] <Healot> Shukhrat_, your pc will blow up :)
[02:59] <jetscreamer> err
[02:59] <onkarshinde> Shukhrat_: Patse whatever out is to pastebin
[02:59] <jetscreamer> try lspci | less
[02:59] <IdleOne> Healot,  lmfao
[02:59] <jetscreamer> try lspci | > lspci.output
[02:59] <jetscreamer> err shit
[02:59] <Shukhrat_> Healot: lol
[02:59] <jetscreamer> try lspci > lspci.output
[03:00] <Healot> Shukhrat_, it will flush out garbage about your PCI devices connected to your motherboard
[03:00] <Healot> well, we can read/understand that garbage anyway :)
[03:00] <Shukhrat_> onkarshinde: i am at work now, the laptop is at home
[03:00] <soundray> graveson, are  you running any other programs that may be blocking the sound device -- skype? ekiga? xmms? Wolfenstein 3D?
[03:00] <veldorzvizzerd> Healot, hi its me again - I got ndiswrapper and also have downloaded the Linux Source code for PCI and PCMCIA Wireless cards - v1.1.0 from http://www.minitar.com/index.php?maincat=download (which is the website of the company whose wireless pci card I have) - now, there are a lot of files in the .tgz file I downloaded, how would I use these to make my wireless card work?
[03:00] <onkarshinde> Shukhrat_: Unless and untill you know what modem it is, it is hard to provide any help.
[03:00] <Healot> got ndisgtk? veldorzvizzerd ?
[03:01] <veldorzvizzerd> whoops, will get that - sorry forgot that one
[03:01] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, is there a turtor...  sorry i don't know how to spell
[03:01] <veldorzvizzerd> Healot, I have to get that from the net right, whereabouts can I get it from?
[03:02] <graveson> soundray : i have the audio player ,connected to the line in (playing audio) ,is this a problem
[03:02] <Healot> just run ndisgtk "System->Administration->Windows Wireless Drivers", click "Install New Driver", figure out the driver directory
[03:02] <soundray> graveson, yes.
[03:02] <Shukhrat_> onkarshinde: ok, i'll identify my modem and come back to irc chat? but one general question: should ubuntu recognize any modem or are there any modem that it can't recognize?
[03:02] <soundray> graveson, erm...
[03:02] <veldorzvizzerd> will do, cheers
[03:02] <Healot> and pray to God, that ndiswrapper will figure out the wifi card :)
[03:02] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, tutorial?
[03:03] <soundray> graveson, by audio player, do you mean the thing that plays the music you want to digitize?
[03:03] <Healot> lyx tutorial is available at http://www.lyx.org/ i guess?
[03:03] <zuokanyunqi> Healot, yes where can i find a turtorial to make a deb
[03:03] <pimp^air> one tell me how to install eclipse-jdt and libswt-gtk-3.1-java
[03:03] <Healot> veldorzvizzerd, make sure you have the XP driver ready...
[03:03] <onkarshinde> Shukhrat_: There are lots of internal modems that are not recognised by default. But if it is intel one then there are drivers in multiverse repository.
[03:03] <Healot> zuokanyunqi, man "alien" zuokanyunqi ?
[03:04] <nrymiguel> hi ppl
[03:04] <patrick522> soundray: it worked thanks for all your help
[03:04] <Healot> I am bad at locating tutorial/FAQ or wikiwikiwiki
[03:04] <graveson> soundray: yes i want to record my audio casettes to cd (this is my goal)
[03:04] <nrymiguel> my totem player no not decode video....help pls
[03:04] <soundray> patrick522: excellent -- BIOS settings did it?
[03:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell nrymiguel about multimedia
[03:05] <patrick522> soundray: i set it to smart insted of always on so if it gets to hot it kick in
[03:05] <oskari> #ubuntu-fi
[03:05] <soundray> graveson, well, in that case, it is essential to have that connected. But you have to make sure that there aren't any other sound programs running before you start audacity.
[03:05] <soundray> patrick522: well done.
[03:05] <dejx> is there any tool for scaning wireless networks, like in windows, you just click scan and you get the list of avabile ones.
[03:06] <Mabus06> how come 'netcat mabus.sytes.net 80' resolves to unknown host?
[03:06] <Healot> dejx, in fact many
[03:06] <soundray> patrick522: I found another link that may be of interest to you: http://emergent.unpythonic.net/ideq
[03:06] <atul> I got some problems with graphics on ubuntu
[03:06] <Healot> kismet, etc..
[03:06] <Healot> atul, is it nv's MX 400 PCI?
[03:06] <dejx> any other but kismet?
[03:06] <atul> na
[03:06] <veldorzvizzerd> Healot, I managed to find a place where I can download ndisgtk from the net, the only thing is that on ubuntu I went to System->Administration but there is nothing there to do with Windows
[03:06] <Healot> or ati 9500 or above?
[03:06] <onkarshinde> atul: which card?
[03:07] <atul> actually everything tuns ok
[03:07] <atul> *runs ok
[03:07] <graveson> soundray : i have vmware running with windows,i am going to shut that down and try again
[03:07] <dejx> isnt kismet for faking MAC addresses?
[03:07] <Healot> "Windows Wireless Driver"
[03:07] <nrymiguel> -jason: thanks man
[03:07] <Mabus06> dejx: if you go to configure your wireless card, when you click on essid there should be a list of options
[03:07] <atul> i notice a flicker when i run robocode
[03:07] <Healot> or just run "ndisgtk", veldorzvizzerd
[03:07] <dejx> Mabus06 ??
[03:07] <veldorzvizzerd> ok
[03:07] <dejx> in what tool?
[03:07] <Mabus06> dejx: kismet is for 'auditing' wireless netowrks
[03:07] <Mabus06> network-admin
[03:07] <Mabus06> system > administration > networking
[03:07] <ZyLoR> hi guys.. i have a problem when i try to get ubuntu live 64bits edition to work with my computer...it won't detect my grpahic card and gives a error that can't run graphical interface because of it
[03:08] <soundray> graveson: that would be good. In fact, you could restart your system and try audacity in a fail safe session if it's still not working.
[03:08] <dejx> in network-admin i must write ssid on my own...
[03:08] <dejx> afaik.
[03:08] <soundray> ZyLoR: what kind of graphics card have you got?
[03:08] <ZyLoR> i have: amd 64 3500+ 1Gb DDR400, a nForce 4 SLI and a Ati Radeon x556 250Mb PCI-E
[03:08] <Mabus06> dejx: I see three options, myself
[03:08] <ZyLoR> x550*
[03:08] <graveson> soundray : how would i do that ,because that it is still not working
[03:08] <onkarshinde> atul: Then what is problem?
[03:08] <soundray> !tell ZyLoR about ati
[03:08] <dejx> wait a sec
[03:08] <dejx> i must reboot
[03:09] <ZyLoR> thanks :D
[03:09] <ZyLoR> i'll try that and see if it works
[03:09] <soundray> graveson: when you come to the login screen, there is an option you can choose - a failsafe session with a terminal instead of gnome.
[03:09] <ZyLoR> bbl
[03:09] <ZyLoR> :p
[03:09] <ZyLoR> thanks
[03:09] <atul> what is the flicker due to
[03:10] <atul> the same thing works well on windows
[03:10] <onkarshinde> atul: It might be that application is using sdl which might be causing problem.
[03:10] <atul> how do i resolve it
[03:10] <graveson>  soundray: so i should run audacity from the command line ?
[03:10] <onkarshinde> atul: I have no idea.
[03:11] <atul> ok
[03:11] <JoshRA> What is the default MYSQL password in Ubtunu?
[03:11] <atul> thanks
[03:11] <dejx> re
[03:11] <rinke> Nothing
[03:12] <JoshRA> rinke: but i am getting a password denied
[03:12] <JoshRA> and i am using root:noting
[03:12] <patrick522> is there any apps worth noing on ubuntu
[03:12] <phreak9700> ok, so i broke xorg.conf
[03:12] <rinke> JoashRA:Ubuntu hasn't a deflaut password.
[03:12] <Shukhrat_> onkarshinde: thanks, but my pc is not intel but AMD athlon, does it matter?
[03:13] <phreak9700> how do i edit it from a command line?
[03:13] <soundray> graveson: yes, but in a minimal X environment. This is just diagnostic, to see if it's really another program that interferese with audacity.
[03:13] <soundray> *interferes
[03:13] <Shukhrat_> onkarshinde: thanks, but my pc is not intel but AMD athlon, does it matter?
[03:13] <veldorzvizzerd> can anyone tell me how can I mout the C: drive (in NTFS in Ubuntu so that I can read / copy out files from it?
[03:13] <phreak9700> i need to know how to edit xorg.conf from command line
[03:14] <phreak9700> no gnome
[03:14] <soundray> phreak9700: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:14] <phreak9700> thanks
[03:14] <patrick522> any good programmes i should get
[03:14] <Matthewv> veldorzvizzerd, look at http://ubuntuguide.org/#automountntfs
[03:14] <veldorzvizzerd> thanks, matthewv
[03:15] <protocol1> this whole time I had a wireless problem...it was the settings in my firestarter firewall
[03:15] <protocol1> heh
[03:15] <soundray> patrick522: tetex is great. If you want to typeset beautiful text, that is.
[03:15] <sugoruyo> can i use firefox 1.5 with breezy?
[03:16] <soundray> !ff1.5
[03:16] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[03:16] <patrick522> soundray: is there a sudo for it
[03:16] <PortableIzey> anyone know where I can find sdl_mxr and sdl_net?
[03:16] <soundray> patrick522: I don't understand your question.
[03:16] <Aaronfromchina> why can't I see the user list on the right?
[03:16] <patrick522> you said tetex where do i get it
[03:17] <PortableIzey> sugoruyo:  yes you can
[03:17] <veldorzvizzerd> how can I access the command line from ubuntu?
[03:17] <patrick522> soundray: is there a sudo apt-get for tetex
[03:17] <pvd2006> How can you tell which version of Ubuntu you are running, either breezy badger or hoary hedgehog,
[03:18] <gotcha> hi there
[03:18] <soundray> patrick522: apt-get install tetex-base tetex-extra
[03:18] <kingspwned> veldorzvizzerd, start up a terminal, or press ctrl-alt-f1 (alt-f7 to get back to gui)
[03:18] <veldorzvizzerd> thanks, kingspwned
[03:18] <patrick522> soundray: cheers will try it
[03:18] <sugoruyo> PortableIzey, i can ...?
[03:19] <gotcha> does anybody can tell me where to find a good and simple wiki on howto configure nfs?
[03:19] <sugoruyo> PortableIzey, i just get it from the official website?
[03:19] <protocol1> kingspwned, that a nice feature
[03:19] <soundray> patrick522: I suggest you find out more about it first. My suggestion was only half serious.
[03:19] <pvd2006> Nevermind about that question
[03:19] <pvd2006> I got it
[03:19] <Overand> How can I take 2 (or more) text files that are lists, combine them, and alphebetize them?
[03:19] <PortableIzey> suggoruyo: yeah FF1.5 I was late on the answer
[03:19] <patrick522> soundray: ok i will do that as im waiting for inkscape to install
[03:19] <Overand> or, really, how can i alphebatize a text file?
[03:20] <PortableIzey> suggoruyo: I would use automatix less headaches
[03:20] <sugoruyo> PortableIzey, what is automatix
[03:20] <sugoruyo> ??
[03:20] <soundray> patrick522: I never quite got the hang of inkscape. I use xfig, which is ancient. Almost a museum piece of software, but usable.
[03:21] <soundray> !automatix
[03:21] <ubotu> methinks 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.
[03:21] <PortableIzey> suggoruyo: it wil DL it and other stuff and install it
[03:21] <Seveas> sugoruyo, automatix is a virus
[03:21] <Seveas> PortableIzey, recommending automatix is a very bad thing to do
[03:21] <soundray> Seveas: because it replicates in people's minds?
[03:21] <patrick522> soundray: lol
[03:21] <PortableIzey> Seveas: really ?
[03:22] <sugoruyo> how do i do it?
[03:22] <Seveas> PortableIzey, judging by the number of reinstalls it has caused it's the worst linux virus ever
[03:22] <PortableIzey> Seveas: I am a newb so I don't know this tuff just go by whats in the Ubuntu forums
[03:22] <soundray> Seveas: call it malware, then.
[03:23] <Adam-School> Hey all
[03:23] <Seveas> PortableIzey, unfortunately the good avice/bad advice ratio in the forums is not that good
[03:24] <PortableIzey> Seveas: okies  but where can I read  about the bad stuff so I can see if I need to do a reinstall on my systems
[03:24] <Seveas> PortableIzey, help.ubuntu.com and wiki.ubuntu.com are good resources
[03:24] <gabbah> is anyone using the DC klient Valknut here?
[03:25] <PortableIzey> Seveas: okies
[03:25] <soundray> PortableIzey: if you want to know what exactly automatix has done to your system, you can just read the script and find out.
[03:26] <PortableIzey> Seveas: I'll have to learn how first but I will look into it
[03:28] <patrick522> how can i tell which version of ubuntu i have
[03:28] <_jason> patrick522: lsb_release -a
[03:28] <santeri> Hello.

[03:30] <VladimirBG> how can I UNmount a CD volume? I have trouble copying audio CD's with both graveman and natilus. when coping data cd's the volume is unmounted and the image is made, but audio discs do not get unmounted, so by unmounting the volume I hoping to make a workaround...
[03:30] <Seveas> gabbah, not, use ctrl-shift-v
[03:31] <_jason> useruser: oops, one cat too many there
[03:31] <useruser> _jason: yeah, that works
[03:31] <pieterjan> hey

[03:43] <Amaranth> http://www.ajaxlaunch.com/ajaxwrite/ <--cool stuff
[03:43] <AngryElf> is there a command-line option to speed up my mouse, because the GUI mouse-speed options aren't making my mouse fast enough
[03:43] <jenda> Which configuration files tell Ubuntu what the sound effects are?
[03:43] <pieterjan> owkey antother question i cant listen music
[03:44] <Amaranth> !mp3
[03:44] <ubotu> I guess mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[03:44] <soundray> AngryElf: use xset
[03:44] <_jason> jenda: you can set them in system > preferences > sounds > system events, do you really want the config file?
[03:45] <gabbah> .
[03:45] <patrick522> im at college right and i have to make a programme is there anything for ubuntu like visual basics for windows
[03:45] <PokerFacePenguin> anybody got any idea what would cause this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10683 (the volume "pop up stays huge and wont go away)
[03:45] <pieterjan> he cant read mp3 2 but when I play a MP4 format I cant hear anything 2
[03:45] <jenda> _jason: yup. I already have them set on one PC and want the same on another.
[03:46] <PokerFacePenguin> when i adjust the master volume it increases then goes back to zero for no apparent reason
[03:47] <pvd2006> jason_, it says I need xlibs as a dependency to install opera, do I really need xlibs? I am using the newest kernel.
[03:48] <Intelnux> HI guys and girls I'm new to nux and have just install isomount-0.9 on ubuntu and have mount and iso of mythtv. How do I get the install program to start?
[03:48] <_jason> jenda: appears to be set in ~/.gnome2/sound/events/
[03:48] <patrick522> is there any program that is like visual basics for ubuntu
[03:48] <jenda> _jason: OK, thanks.
[03:48] <fyrestrtr> Intelnux: cd to the drive where it is, then type ./configure
[03:48] <rcaskey_> patrick522: not that you want to use
[03:49] <Intelnux> thanks fyrestrtr
[03:49] <patrick522> why wats wrong with it
[03:49] <soundray> patrick522: there are a number. Try 'apt-cache search integrated development environment'
[03:49] <Baard> After I upgraded to Dapper the touchpad was _really_ slow, so I had to make a change to xorg.conf. But the mouse in vmware is still really slow, any idea how to fix that?
[03:49] <raid> hey all I need to create a user with very rescrictive permissions policies, what's the est group for that?
[03:49] <raid> the best
[03:50] <rcaskey_> patrick522: what makes VB great is that it's a package deal, you get good docs, etc and that's not true of VB alternatives. Your best alternative is probably Pygthon + GTK but documentation is pretty bad relative to MSDN even there
[03:50] <rcaskey_> patrick522: in a few more months mono + gtk# may be what you are after
[03:51] <corto_maltese> hi I've aproblem with CUPS, when I go to System->Administration->Printers the message is "Unable to connect to CUPS sever" but the CUSP server is running, the gnome packages are okay and I success in accessing though Firefox at the URL http://localhost:631/ any idea?

[03:51] <fyrestrtr> patrick522: yes, Applications --> Office --> Base
[03:52] <fiendskull9> I CANT WAIT FOR DAPPER!
[03:52] <fiendskull9> Lol
[03:52] <moulty> then get the alpha
[03:53] <fiendskull9> i dont wanna take any chances
[03:53] <moulty> test it, bug report it :)
[03:53] <fiendskull9> i hate beta testing
[03:53] <fiendskull9> lol
[03:53] <moulty> give it own partition
[03:53] <fiendskull9> hmm
[03:53] <moulty> safe as houses
[03:53] <fiendskull9> would i install breezy on that part.
[03:53] <fiendskull9> then do the dapper upgrade?
[03:53] <gabbah> what window manager is this? http://developer.berlios.de/dbimage.php?id=489  It looks nice...
[03:53] <fiendskull9> or will the dapper upgrade have an option
[03:54] <fiendskull9> gabbah, thats kde
[03:54] <moulty> best to fresh install dapper then sudo distro update
[03:54] <fiendskull9> moulty, you mean fresh breezy?
[03:54] <jetscreamer> it's called keramik theme iirc
[03:54] <fiendskull9> moulty, or is there a dapper iso avaible?
[03:54] <gabbah> fiendskull9, so i can't get such a good look with gnome?
[03:54] <jetscreamer> i hate it though
[03:54] <soop> fiendskull9: yes there is
[03:55] <moulty> fiendskull9 there is iso....
[03:55] <fiendskull9> gabbah, pm me
[03:55] <jetscreamer> gabbah: yeah you can do it
[03:55] <moulty> !dapper iso
[03:55] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, moulty
[03:55] <moulty> !test dapper
[03:55] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, moulty
[03:55] <fiendskull9> !dapper
[03:55] <soundray> gabbah: the equivalent theme for gnome is called geramik

[03:57] <variant> fiendskull9: trying to update to dapper
[03:57] <fiendskull9> moulty, thanks man, i might try today
[03:58] <fiendskull9> moulty, ive been up all night, and i need something to carry me on through the day
[03:58] <moulty> fiendskull9, np, what cpu you running?
[03:58] <corto_maltese> hey guys really someone can help me?
[03:58] <fyrestrtr> if only WoW would run on Linux :(
[03:58] <moulty> fiendskull9 lol
[03:58] <fyrestrtr> corto_maltese: ask a question?
[03:58] <zaibiechu> My vim does not have grammar highlight,which package should i install
[03:58] <fiendskull9> moulty, its intel p3
[03:58] <soundray> !helpme
[03:58] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[03:58] <moulty> corto_maltese, whats up?
[03:58] <corto_maltese> Here is the problem:
[03:58] <corto_maltese> hi I've aproblem with CUPS, when I go to System->Administration->Printers the message is "Unable to connect to CUPS sever" but the CUSP server is running, the gnome packages are okay and I success in accessing though Firefox at the URL http://localhost:631/ any idea?
[03:59] <fyrestrtr> corto_maltese: restart it
[03:59] <variant> fyrestrtr: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Install_and_update_World_Of_Warcraft_with_wine
[03:59] <raid> hey all I need to create a user with very rescrictive permissions policies, what's the best group for that?
[04:00] <corto_maltese> fyrestrtr, done but nothing happens
[04:00] <gabbah> fiendskull9, did u get my private message?
[04:00] <fyrestrtr> raid: what do you mean restrictive?
[04:00] <moulty> fiendskull9, i think its ok to upgrade breezy to dapper with distro upgade, if its breezy i386 to dapper i386, not i386 to amd64, but it dont apply to you anyway ;)
[04:00] <jadaz87> ubuntu is nice i actually got it working with a windows printer that was connected to a windows computer through LPT1 :-)
[04:00] <gamma> anyone have the issue with network manager where it keeps disconnecting from the access point and reconnecting
[04:01] <raid> like a guest, i want him tu use system but has no access to it
[04:01] <soundray> raid, ubuntu creates a group for every user by the user's name. If you don't add the new user to any extra groups, that'll be the most restrictive setup you can get.
[04:01] <jeremy1> ls
[04:01] <gabbah>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[04:01] <raid> soundray
[04:01] <raid> soundray can u explain more that?
[04:01] <phreak97> i seriously give up
[04:01] <fyrestrtr> raid: 'use the system but has no access to it' ??? that doesn't make any sense.
[04:01] <moulty> fiendskull9 i managed it once i386 to i386 np, but the other time it was i386 to amd64, it went horridly wrong
[04:01] <phreak97> i thought linux was supposed to do what you tell it no matter the concequences
[04:01] <raid> fyrestrtr sorry i'm noob
[04:01] <phreak97> but it is most definately not doing what i tell it
[04:02] <fyrestrtr> phreak97: no, that's Windows
[04:02] <phreak97> fyrestrtr, windows never does what you tell it
[04:02] <carsten> Moin. Is the dapper-installed able to use dm-crypt?
[04:02] <fyrestrtr> you have to ask nicely ... and carry a big stick.
[04:02] <carsten> the breezy one isn't
[04:02] <phreak97> lol
[04:02] <raid> where can i get info bout creating new users anyway?
[04:03] <soop> raid: adduser
[04:03] <variant> phreak97: what you trying to do?
[04:03] <soop> !adduser
[04:03] <ubotu> soop: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:03] <soop> !users
[04:03] <ubotu> soop: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:03] <variant> soop: i think you mean useradd
[04:03] <variant> :P
[04:03] <fyrestrtr> variant: same thing
[04:03] <corto_maltese> fyrestrtr, any other idea...? I think is a seriuos bug...
[04:03] <soop> variant adduser works as well ;)
[04:03] <variant> i know..
[04:03] <phreak97> variant, i'm trying to set my pc to 1280x960 70Hz
[04:03] <raid> soop: man adduser?
[04:03] <soundray> raid, example: You create a new user: 'sudo adduser frog'. If you then do 'su - frog' and type 'groups', you will see that frog is only in its own group.
[04:03] <variant> phreak97: does the monitor/gfx card support it?
[04:04] <phreak97> yes
[04:04] <phreak97> but only just
[04:04] <fyrestrtr> don't know what to tell you, its working here just fine -- so its not a 'serious bug' otherwise people would be screaming about it.
[04:04] <variant> phreak97: try ddcxinfo-knoppix
[04:04] <variant> i think thats what its calld
[04:04] <phreak97> it tells the operating system it doesnt, but if you force it it works happily
[04:04] <raid> soundray ok so frog has no permissions?
[04:04] <soundray> phreak97: have you read fixres?
[04:04] <soundray> !fixres
[04:04] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:04] <phreak97> i have
[04:04] <corto_maltese> i saw a lot of post in diifeferent forums and no solutions
[04:04] <soundray> raid: it does, but they are minimal.
[04:05] <raid> soundray thx for ur help
[04:05] <corto_maltese> in my country and around the world...
[04:05] <Shindeiku> bjr tt le monde

[04:05] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:06] <Shindeiku> thanks but I can speak english too ;)
[04:06] <soundray> !en
[04:06] <ubotu> en is probably Queen's English Speakers; Essex inhabitants who may all go to #ubuntu-uk - anyone from the Island of Great Britain is also welcome.
[04:06] <Shindeiku> and I don't need help :)
[04:06] <nickrud> phreak97, you can get an idea of what x is seeing about your monitor with the command grep -i defaults /var/log/Xorg.0.log ; if your 70hz version you want doesn't show, it's most likely horizsync & vertrefresh that need work
[04:07] <Shindeiku> are there ubuntu developpers?
[04:07] <soundray> Too bad, you've come to the right channel for speaking English, but only if you have a support question -- or answers, as the case may be.
[04:07] <nickrud> phreak97, a typo there, it should be default not defaults
[04:07] <moulty> anyone know howto switch from oss to alsa in dapper?
[04:08] <soundray> moulty: ??  dapper comes with alsa, not oss. It just has an OSS compatibility mode.
[04:08] <foxpaul> anyone know how i can make my backspace key delete a char in vi? at the moment it only deletes what is after the cursor
[04:08] <_jason> foxpaul: try #vim
[04:08] <jenda> When I type "scp -rC /home/jenda/.gnome2 jenda@192.168.1.39:/home/jenda/.gnome2" scp will copy all the files, but when I "ls .gnome2" on the target PC, it doesn't change. What's the matter?

[04:09] <Shindeiku> set Akuma on
[04:09] <fiendskull9> !Kubuntu
[04:09] <ubotu> it has been said that kubuntu is Ubuntu+KDE, (not a fork) ; see http://kubuntu.org and you can go to #kubuntu for KDE-related help, or install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop; ISOs: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/breezy/
[04:09] <Shindeiku> $verbose = 0;
[04:09] <Shindeiku> set Akuma off
[04:09] <fiendskull9> tell gabbah about !Kubuntu
[04:10] <soundray> jenda, you have to stop gnome on the target pc.
[04:10] <jenda> soundray: I did
[04:10] <nickrud> jenda, try ls -a .gnome2
[04:10] <phreak97> nickrud, i put unnaturally high ranges in xorg.conf manually and it still wont let me choose them
[04:10] <kirik> hi, I have a PS/2 optical mouse, which is working in Win XP, but does not even light up in Ubuntu
[04:10] <phreak97> variant phreak97: try ddcxinfo-knoppix <--- what is this?
[04:10] <variant> why is it that the firefox icon on ubuntu desktop is not the real firefox icon.. seems kinda silly and confusing as to the icons purpose to have it as being that blue sphear thing
[04:10] <jenda> nickrud: Ah... thanks (there is a .gnome2/.gnome2)
[04:11] <phreak97> variant, you can choose that
[04:11] <variant> phreak97: its a program for probing ddc info from your monitor and generating modelines for xorg.conf
[04:11] <nickrud> phreak97, does your resolution show up on the list? (the hz you're looking for is the last entry on each line)
[04:11] <phreak97> variant, i changed mine
[04:11] <variant> phreak97: but its a really stupid default
[04:11] <kirik> There seem to be many inconclusive bug reports on this ps/2 optical mouse not working subject
[04:11] <_jason> variant: I think it has something to do with how it's licensed... not sure though, heard that somewhere
[04:11] <variant> _jason: hmm, thats a shame
[04:12] <variant> _jason: dont see how that can work though
[04:12] <Shindeiku> set Akuma[bot]  on
[04:12] <Shindeiku> &join('#ubuntu-fr');
[04:12] <phreak97> nickrud, i cant make the command work
[04:14] <phreak97> variant, where do i get ddcxinfo-knoppix ?
[04:14] <fiendskull9> anyone here use opera?
[04:14] <nickrud> phreak97, grep -i default /var/log/Xorg.0.log <-- very straightforward in a terminal
[04:14] <kirik> the light of the mouse goes off while booting
[04:14] <jadaz87> gamma yes go and get wifiradar from Add Applications
[04:15] <phreak97> nickrud, worked, didnt last time
[04:16] <phreak97> nickrud, (**) NVIDIA(0):      Default mode "1280x960": 108.0 MHz, 60.0 kHz, 60.0 Hz
[04:17] <variant> gah, just found the licencing issues with the firefox icon.. how silly!
[04:17] <phreak97> lol
[04:17] <nickrud> phreak97, yes. Now search through the following modes, see if there's a 1280x960 at 70 hz
[04:18] <variant> half way down the page, glanz comment: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-26696.html
[04:18] <phreak97> nickrud, there isnt
[04:18] <jenda> hey, why doesn't mv have a recursive option?
[04:18] <phreak97> that's the only one which doesnt say: (II) NVIDIA(1): Not using default mode "1280x960" (hsync out of range)
[04:19] <_jason> jenda: it's always recursive.  If you mv a folder, its contents go with it
[04:19] <nickrud> phreak97, then you will need to create a mode line, you can try using http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl
[04:19] <pixu> oooo
[04:19] <jenda> _jason: OK, thanks
[04:20] <refnumzx> i have a turtlebeach catalina, how can i get it working under  ubuntu?
[04:20] <andydavid> join /#ubuntu-es/
[04:20] <nickrud> phreak97, first though, I'd really research to be sure I had the correct horizsync in my xorg.conf
[04:21] <alemma> msg nickserv identify <jusuf>
[04:21] <gabbah> is it possible to install themes from the synaptic package manager or apt-get in ubuntu?

[04:21] <alemma> si
[04:21] <alemma> yes
[04:21] <winex> si?
[04:21] <winex> do you speak spanish?
[04:22] <phreak97> nickrud, it doesnt work even if i put rediculously high hsync ranges
[04:22] <darkraven> is this a driver programming fault or a download fault (ati installation on dapper)? http://nopaste.debianforum.de/2731
[04:22] <moulty> are there any good translation apps for ubuntu?
[04:22] <phreak97> i figured i could put them there and just not touch them knowing they wouldnt really work
[04:22] <phreak97> but it acts like i havnt done it at all, like it doesnt give a crap about xorg.conf
[04:23] <FukitsuNaDouki> /topic $me
[04:23] <phreak97> i mean, it does, cos if i do something wrong gnome doesnt start
[04:23] <phreak97> but it feels like it doesnt
[04:23] <jenda> _jason: how do I make mv rename a dir?
[04:23] <refnumzx> same way you make it rename a file
[04:24] <variant> moulty: what do you mean?
[04:24] <nickrud> phreak97, then try creating a mode line; if monitor definition is correct, there may simply be an issue 'out of range' being just a touch so, and you can tell X better
[04:24] <_jason> jenda: mv olddirectory newdirectory
[04:24] <jenda> _jason: that moves the old one into the new one.
[04:25] <_jason> jenda: that's the same as renaming
[04:25] <jenda> no, it will make /new/old
[04:25] <_jason> jenda: I think? let me try...
[04:25] <_jason> jenda: works fine
[04:26] <kenas> need help error while typing winecfg
[04:26] <nickrud> phreak97, a really, really silly question: you restart X each time you change xorg.conf, right?
[04:26] <variant> it only moves it into it if "it" allready exists as a directory
[04:26] <kenas> Winecfg (directory not accesible)
[04:26] <jenda> _jason: hmm... seems it does, but only after you remove the directory called <new>, ie. it won't overwrite.
[04:27] <kenas> errror executing wine
[04:27] <refnumzx> are we moving the contents of a directory or moving the dir
[04:28] <refnumzx> if you did mv olddir/* to newdir then yes it would have ti exist but if you did mv olddir newdir it would work
[04:28] <moulty> variant, a langauge translator, perhaps useing the clipboard
[04:28] <variant> moulty: I have thought about htat before..
[04:28] <variant> moulty: i dont know of any for gnome tbh
[04:28] <variant> would be a nice program
[04:28] <variant> hey, i went to a conference on open source and Free software the other day.. And I shook RMS by the hand!
[04:28] <variant> just wanted to share my claim to fame :P
[04:28] <_jason> jenda: that's correct
[04:28] <jenda> ok...
[04:28] <LazyAngel> is there a howto of making deb packages, instead of using the usual ./confugure; make; make install; ?
[04:28] <nickrud> variant, be sure you haven't been virally infected by the gpl ;)
[04:29] <variant> nickrud: that happend a long time ago :P
[04:29] <snowblink> !tell LazyAngel about checkinstall
[04:29] <moulty> variant, google "systran" i had copy of that for windaz
[04:30] <moulty> variant, was very impressive
[04:30] <gabbah> i installed the gtk2-engines-geramik package with the package manager. How do I install it as a theme? In the theme manager, what file do I select? I can't find a suitable one in /usr/share/themes/geramik.... ?
[04:30] <variant> moulty: i have used nordstets swe/eng dict on windows computer at work before.. its very good (but proprietry)
[04:30] <LazyAngel> snowblink: chers!
[04:30] <nickrud> gabbah, it will show up in the theme manager under the controls tab
[04:30] <variant> gabbah: try gtktheme-switch
[04:30] <phreak97> nickrud, yup
[04:30] <variant> gabbah: or what gabbah said
[04:31] <moulty> variant, same with systran, worth a look, they set the bar if you know what i mean
[04:31] <tjansson> How do I rebuid the menues in Gnome - mine are broken?
[04:31] <gamma> did someone reply to my issue of networkmanager auto selecting the best AP again w/o asking?
[04:31] <variant> moulty: yeah.. i was thinking of doing someihhtng in java
[04:31] <variant> moulty: but min svenska ar inte bra
[04:31] <nickrud> phreak97, like I said, a silly question. I had to ask though.
[04:31] <phreak97> nickrud, what mode ?
[04:31] <moulty> variant, :)  ???
[04:31] <gabbah> nickrud, what control tab? there is none.
[04:32] <variant> moulty: my swedish is not very good
[04:32] <variant> moulty: i mean, i would liek to make a java desktop app that would translate swe to eng and the reverse but i dont speak swedish anywhere near well enough
[04:32] <nickrud> gabbah, hit the theme details button first, to get to those tabs :)
[04:33] <carbo> hi... i can't run anything with sudo; i have to use su to run things like synaptic. When I do a 'sudo -l' I'm told I'm not allowed to run sudo on localhost. How do I fix this?
[04:33] <gabbah> nickrud, so i should just select one theme? I don't see the germaik theme just to be clear.
[04:33] <gripner> hey all
[04:33] <variant> carbo: "sudo su -"
[04:33] <gripner> where do one find the "daily" build of iso:s ?
[04:33] <phreak97> nickrud, what modeline?
[04:33] <GnarusLeo> Hi! I have mounted a samba folder (from an account I have at school) .. and when I am trying to send some files to it I get this error: "cp: failed to preserve ownership for <the file/dir>" ... It looks like it wants to give some files, but not all ... how do I fix?
[04:34] <moulty> variant, where is good place to start to learn java, have no programing experience apart from the messing around with windows for years keeping it working, so not total novice
[04:34] <Mabus06> how come when I click on gedit it doesn't open? But it does if I type it in terminal.
[04:34] <carbo> variant: thanks, what exactly does that do?
[04:34] <gabbah> nickrud, ah, got it..
[04:34] <variant> moulty: oreilly book "learning java, 3rd edition" is very good
[04:34] <nickrud> phreak97, use http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl to create it
[04:34] <variant> carbo: you will become root
[04:35] <moulty> variant, thx alot!
[04:35] <variant> carbo: so everything you then type into that terminal will be as the root user
[04:35] <carbo> variant: only for that current terminal?
[04:35] <variant> moulty: is a plesure
[04:35] <variant> carbo: yep
[04:36] <variant> carbo: if you were to type nautilus for example you would have a file manager window open with root privilages which is not really a good idea
[04:36] <yancheng> may i noe how to use command line apt-get to search for a package?
[04:36] <moulty> variant, what other progaming languages do you play with?
[04:36] <variant> carbo: so be very careful.. particularly with the rm command etc as it can utterly trash your system
[04:36] <yancheng> since i am remote control ubuntu machine through tell net.
[04:36] <_jason> Ubugtu: tell yancheng about apt
[04:36] <carbo> variant: okay, I can also just use 'su' and be root... I was hoping more for a solution to make sudo/gksudo work
[04:36] <Mwafrica> Help with a p2p program, to download mp3s
[04:36] <variant> moulty: none other.. unless you count html
[04:36] <variant> carbo: just do "sudo command"
[04:37] <_jason> ubotu: tell yancheng about apt
[04:37] <carbo> variant: cos right now, clicking things like Synaptics or Networking doesn't work
[04:37] <phreak97> nickrud, where do i put the modeline?
[04:37] <carbo> variant: sudo command also doesn't work.. it asks for my password but doesn't run the program
[04:37] <nickrud> phreak97, in the monitor section of your xorg.conf
[04:37] <GnarusLeo> Hi! I have mounted a samba folder (from an account I have at school) .. and when I am trying to send some files to it I get this error: "cp: failed to preserve ownership for <the file/dir>" ... It looks like it wants to give some files, but not all ... how do I fix?
[04:37] <variant> carbo: hmm, does it give an error?
[04:38] <yancheng> thanks!
[04:38] <snowblink> carbo, what groups are you in?
[04:38] <gamma> anyone have the issue where network manager autodetects the best network when the connection "dies" for a second?
[04:38] <variant> does dapper use cairo/glitz?
[04:38] <carbo> no errors, just nothing happens after I enter my password. I haven't changed my groups, this user was created during setup using a breezy cd
[04:38] <GnarusLeo> :)
[04:38] <phreak97> nickrud, anywhere in particular in the monitor section?
[04:39] <moulty> variant, could you recommend reading on html?
[04:39] <phreak97> the site says put it in the screen section aswel
[04:39] <phreak97> should i?
[04:39] <variant> moulty: yea.. been a while since i learned it.. you should start with xhtml
[04:39] <moulty> variant, ta
[04:40] <carbo> i do a 'sudo -l' and it tells me I'm not allowed to run sudo on localhost.. so it has something to do with my group permissions?
[04:40] <synic> any reason that the update manager would open synaptic all of a sudden?
[04:40] <oskari> #gdesklets
[04:40] <snowblink> carbo, what groups are you in?
[04:40] <snowblink> carbo, hint: type groups
[04:40] <oskari> #desklets
[04:41] <nickrud> phreak97, monitor section, anywhere (just before the end is just fine)
[04:41] <snowblink> !tell oskari about gdesklets
[04:41] <phreak97> not in the screen section?
[04:41] <bosco> what is the command to find out out how much hard drive space you have used

[04:46] <SilentJihad> !pastebin
[04:46] <ubotu> somebody said pastebin was a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[04:46] <_jason> SilentJihad: put the error on pastebin
[04:46] <phreak97> nickrud, if the new mode is meant to be in 'screen resolution' then it isnt
[04:46] <phreak97> what now?
[04:46] <refnumzx> i have a turtle beach catalina and i want to get it working under ubuntu have a 5.1 speaker setup and i want to use it for dvdplayback and music, what do i need to do?
[04:46] <Zoroaster> does 5.10 have a telnet client like windows telnet to like connect to routers
[04:47] <nickrud> phreak97, no, the modeline def goes into the monitor section, and the quoted part gets referenced in the screen section like any other resolution
[04:47] <Zoroaster> I know I can telnt from command line, but I am wondering if there is a telnet client
[04:47] <carbo> _jason: thanks! that took care of it
[04:47] <phreak97> nickrud, i mean, system > preferences > screen resolution
[04:48] <phreak97> nickrud, sup with the slow replies? it's 2:18am here and i'd like this done before i go to bed, which i'd like to do asap..
[04:48] <nickrud> phreak97, I'm not real familiar with how gnome gets the options for that tool, I tend to use the xorg.conf myself (inertia)
[04:49] <phreak97> nickrud, how do i make it choose that mode then?
[04:49] <osfameron> any suggestions what password am I supposed to enter for localhost:631 ?  (The Cups configuration page)
[04:49] <phreak97> cos it isnt using it
[04:49] <nickrud> phreak97, I'm not a fast typist, when I try to be accurate. Also, I'm at work :)
[04:49] <phreak97> ah
[04:50] <SilentJihad> _jason :: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10686
[04:50] <phreak97> well.. how do i tell it to use that mode
[04:50] <nickrud> phreak97, paste the modeline (one line) here
[04:50] <_jason> SilentJihad: did you install from the repositories?
[04:50] <SilentJihad> Naw
[04:50] <_jason> SilentJihad: how?
[04:50] <SilentJihad> I downloaded form the website and complied from source
[04:50] <akin_to> anyone knows how to setup mdac_typ under wine ubuntu?
[04:50] <phreak97> Modeline "1280x960@70" 129.75 1280 1312 1800 1832 960 979 990 1009
[04:50] <m_0_r_0_n> Hi, although I ve set periodically synchronize clock in "Time and Date Settings", the system doesnt synchronize the system time. I also cant the cronjob for this service. Any idea what the problem is?
[04:51] <r> can anyone recommend a channel for embedded hardware discussions?
[04:51] <_jason> SilentJihad: the one in the repositories works fine.  Don't know about that error
[04:51] <_jason> SilentJihad: you can try #mplayer if you want to keep what you compiled
[04:51] <nickrud> osfameron, you need to enable the cups web interface: sudo adduser cupsys shadow && sudo invoke-rc.d cupsys restart , then log in as yourself
[04:51] <phreak97> nickrud, ?
[04:51] <nickrud> phreak97, <nickrud> phreak97, paste the modeline (one line) here
[04:51] <osfameron> nickrud: thanks
[04:51] <phreak97> i did
[04:52] <SilentJihad> _jason :: well its not really important I was just trying to practice compileing from source
[04:52] <akin_to> nickrud do you know about setting up mdac_typ?
[04:52] <phreak97> nickrud, Modeline "1280x960@70" 129.75 1280 1312 1800 1832 960 979 990 1009
[04:52] <SilentJihad> !mplayer
[04:52] <ubotu> I guess mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[04:52] <nickrud> akin_to, I don't even know what that is :)
[04:52] <nickrud> phreak97, add "1280x960@70" to the resolution lists in the screen section
[04:52] <akin_to> my vb program requires that for data provider... im using wine
[04:53] <akin_to> any idea?
[04:53] <phreak97> ok, brb
[04:53] <nickrud> akin_to, ah, I never use wine
[04:53] <akin_to> ok tnx
[04:54] <akin_to> any one knows how to use wine?
[04:54] <worthawholebean> When is EFI/mactel support going to be ready?
[04:54] <Pecisk> hi, does Ubuntu PowerPC version will run on 64-bit G5?
[04:54] <gata15> kpppi
[04:55] <gata15> llllllul,luillui
[04:55] <nickrud> worthawholebean, probably not until dapper+1, if then
[04:55] <worthawholebean> nickrud: a couple days ago people said it was almost done
[04:55] <rysiek|pl> hi all
[04:56] <nickrud> worthawholebean, I'm sure it won't be in dapper, it's practically frozen. the 'if then' is I'd guess they would want something rock solid for a release
[04:56] <carbo> how should i get firefox/thunderbird 1.5? they never show up in Synaptic... or am I supposed to stick to 1.0.7 in breezy
[04:57] <rysiek|pl> !firefox
[04:57] <Kamping_Kaiser> carbo: you should stick with 1.07 if cyou can
[04:57] <nickrud> worthawholebean, but I definitely am not in the loop, I've just watched over the developer's shoulders for a long time.
[04:57] <rysiek|pl> !tell carbo about firefox
[04:57] <rysiek|pl> !tell carbo about firefox1.5
[04:58] <carbo> i see, thanks
[04:58] <rysiek|pl> Kamping_Kaiser: and why is that?
[04:58] <rysiek|pl> carbo: no prob :)
[04:58] <Kamping_Kaiser> rysiek|pl: because FF is integrated into ubuntu in ways i don't understand (or os i have been told)
[04:59] <rysiek|pl> !tell Kamping_Kaiser about firefox1.5
[04:59] <rysiek|pl> Kamping_Kaiser: blah, humbug! :)
[04:59] <Kamping_Kaiser> lol
[04:59] <tommaso> ragazzi c' qualcuno che pu aiutarmi a risolvere un piccolo problema con i miei hard disk?
[04:59] <rysiek|pl> and "out loud" it is, really :)
[04:59] <nickrud> Kamping_Kaiser, the gecko rendering engine is used by a lot of applications, and often the apps need to be rebuilt for a later gecko (firefox) release
[04:59] <JoeMorris> hi
[04:59] <SilentJihad> Humm im still getting this same error
[05:00] <Kamping_Kaiser> nickrud: ok
[05:00] <JoeMorris> can i upgrade to dapper final without reinstalling?
[05:00] <JoeMorris> or will it break stuff
[05:00] <synic> I didn't know dapper was out yet
[05:00] <JoeMorris> the beta
[05:00] <JoeMorris> to final when it comes out
[05:00] <JoeMorris> well fight 5
[05:00] <JoeMorris> flight 5 = alpha i think right?
[05:01] <nickrud> JoeMorris, the whole point of apt is upgrading stuff without breaking during the upgrade. Even from one release to the next
[05:01] <tommaso> jj
[05:02] <phreak97> nickrud, no luck..
[05:02] <phreak97> nickrud, do i give up?
[05:02] <refnumzx> i have a turtle beach catalina and i want to get it working under ubuntu have a 5.1 speaker setup and i want to use it for dvdplayback and music, what do i need to do?
[05:03] <carbo> another question :x what's the difference between the 'acpi=off' and 'noacpi' options for grub?
[05:03] <tommaso> ho un problema con il mio hard disk
[05:03] <tunin13> hola
[05:03] <soundray> carbo: there is no 'noacpi' option.
[05:03] <tunin13> nsssssssssssssssssssssss

[05:03] <tunin13> wejw
[05:03] <tunin13> eje
[05:03] <soundray> carbo: there is a similarly named one, noapic, but it's a different thing.
[05:04] <carbo> soundray: hmm alright, I saw it in a forum post. Yeah I know noapic is different. Oh well.
[05:05] <soundray> carbo: apic and acpi occasionally are confused. Hardly surprising.
[05:05] <nickrud> phreak97, two things: first, you need to make sure that gnome is not overriding the xorg.conf settings (I've seen where it was done, but will need to look it up) and second, make sure xorg is ok. Post xorg.conf
[05:05] <sistema> RAYOS
[05:05] <phreak97> nickrud, how do i make sure gnome is not overriding it?
[05:05] <phreak97> that sounds like it
[05:06] <SilentJihad> hey, I cant find the KillAll function in Ubuntu, Ctrl _Alt_ Exc dosent work

[05:07] <SilentJihad> Anyone know the Kill all command? I need to kill a program, but I cant gigured out where Kill all is
[05:07] <oskari> #ubuntu-fi
[05:07] <SilentJihad> used to be CTRL ALT ESC
[05:07] <kronoz_> hi
[05:07] <soundray> SilentJihad: it's called killall
[05:07] <Esco> hey i have a problem
[05:08] <SilentJihad> soundray yes, I know, but I cant figure how to use it now.
[05:08] <Esco> what is "sudo:unable to lookup via gethost by name()"
[05:08] <phreak97> SilentJihad, alt ctrl backspace kills gnome
[05:08] <g0dchild> !ttf

[05:08] <SilentJihad> I just want to kill mplayer
[05:08] <kronoz_> how can i set up my printer in kubuntu? the 'printer' tab in system settings appears to be stuck on initilizing manager
[05:08] <soundray> SilentJihad: killall mplayer then.
[05:09] <phreak97> nickrud, got any instant messenger?
[05:09] <SilentJihad> it says, No process killed
[05:09] <soundray> SilentJihad: alternatively, run xkill and select the mplayer window (if any).
[05:09] <carbo> SilentJihad: run the System Monitor and you can kill processes from a grpahical list, its easier
[05:09] <Esco> hello?
[05:09] <SilentJihad> ahh much better
[05:09] <nickrud> phreak97, nah, I don't use any of those. but, use gconf-editor, and right click all the keys in /desktop/gnome/screen/* and select unset key
[05:09] <Jack-Ho> hey i cant use ati card tv out
[05:09] <SilentJihad> thank you
[05:09] <kronoz_> kill -9 `ps -e | grep mplayer | awk {print $1}`
[05:09] <kronoz_> *i think*
[05:09] <Esco> what is "sudo:unable to lookup via gethost by name()"
[05:09] <Jack-Ho> it allways uses ntsc-e instand of pal-b
[05:09] <Jack-Ho> :x
[05:10] <nickrud> phreak97, sadly I spend way too much time at my desk, and you probably can ping me here no problem
[05:10] <akin_to> how can i access share folder of ubuntu to ubuntu?
[05:10] <kronoz_> just check what mplayer's pid is in ps -e and do kill -9 PID
[05:10] <soundray> Esco: you probably need to fix your /etc/hosts
[05:10] <refnumzx> i have a turtle beach catalina and i want to get it working under ubuntu have a 5.1 speaker setup and i want to use it for dvdplayback and music, what do i need to do?
[05:10] <paqui> *linares
[05:11] <phreak97> nickrud, done, ill restart gnome
[05:11] <soundray> Esco, the first line should read '127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ' optionally followed by your chosen hostname.
[05:11] <nickrud> akin_to, my knowledge of networking is near non-existent, so I run from networking questions. ;)
[05:12] <fyrestrtr> akin_to: how are you sharing it?
[05:12] <nena> ola
[05:12] <phreak97> nickrud, still not doing anything other than 60Hz
[05:12] <SilentJihad> !pastebin
[05:12] <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 ,
[05:12] <soundray> I have been asked by an Apple Mac person whether there was something equivalent in Ubuntu to Apple's "Bonjour". I didn't know the answer. Can you help pls?
[05:12] <nena> hello
[05:13] <akin_to> fyrestrtr i just shared it by right click then share->samba
[05:13] <malverian[work] > soundray, howl or avahi
[05:13] <kronoz_> soundray: what does bonjour do? i can't quite remember
[05:13] <nena> hello
[05:13] <nena> hello
[05:13] <kronoz_> hey neno
[05:13] <kronoz_> hey nena
[05:13] <soundray> Apparently Bonjour autoconfigures addresses and shared resources in a local net.
[05:13] <nickrud> phreak97, then the last two checks: check the keys again gconf-editor, then show me your xorg.conf
[05:14] <kronoz_> soundray: kinda likke dhcp?
[05:14] <soundray> Thanks malverian[work] , I'll check it out.
[05:14] <akin_to> but when i use smb://ip_address/sharefolder it returns host: does not contain files
[05:14] <phreak97> nickrud, the keys are gone, as is the folder they were in
[05:14] <phreak97> !pastebin
[05:14] <ubotu> it has been said that pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[05:14] <nena> kronoz
[05:14] <soundray> kronoz_: maybe. But you don't need a server apparently.
[05:14] <UH^MERLIN> yo yo yo

[05:14] <nena> hey

[05:15] <connfrey> hi
[05:15] <porky_scratching> I got a .dat file that contains all my passwords, they have been encrypted by a program, I know the password to unlock the file but it only opens up in the application and there is no way to copy them over so I can delete the application and use my passwords elsewhere does anyone know of a application I can use on the .dat file to make a plain txt copy , is this even possible? I assmue it is...
[05:15] <UH^MERLIN> hey
[05:15] <porky_scratching> ...becuase I know the key?
[05:15] <phreak97> nickrud, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10688
[05:16] <connfrey> I can't unmount a partition, it seems it's busy, BUT I don't not why; can I know what's busying the partition?
[05:16] <nena> hey
[05:16] <fyrestrtr> porky_scratching: what program did you use to encrypt it?
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> connfrey: if you have it open anywhere (like you have the folder open somewhere or some program is reading it).
[05:17] <porky_scratching> It is a password manager that came with a browser I use deepentexplorer
[05:17] <vars> hey is there a way to test memory with the ubuntu live cd?
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> porky_scratching: eeeeh, don't know if its possible.
[05:17] <vars> or any live CD
[05:17] <bsdfox> porky_scratching, you probably can't get the plaintext password out of it
[05:17] <refnumzx> akin_to you are going to have to look at smb.conf and make sure that your shares are setup properly
[05:17] <th0rndike> hello all
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> akin_to: if you are using two ubuntu boxes, you don't need samba problems.
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> you can just use nfs
[05:18] <eyequeue> 'dpkg -l | grep foo'    is there a value for foo that i need to grep for after changing to dapper, to make certain i don't have anything from backports left over?
[05:18] <connfrey> fyrestrtr, yes, I know, but I'm in console, and I'm not in thr waht?e dir of partition, something is using it, can I discove
[05:18] <connfrey> excuse me
[05:18] <nickrud> phreak97, you still need to correct the refresh rates for monitor[1]  : you are only allowing 60 hz there. Bingo.
[05:18] <th0rndike> guys i keep getting an update message but i press install and it doesnt install
[05:18] <connfrey> touchpad
[05:18] <porky_scratching> I would thought if I knew the key then maybe it would be simply a case of reversin gthe process, without having to result to brute forc
[05:18] <eyequeue> we had to do this after dist-upgrading to breezy i recall, not sure if that's still the case or not
[05:18] <Mez> eyequeue, dpkg -l | grep ~
[05:18] <phreak97> nickrud, that's my tv, ofcourse i'm only allowing 60Hz:P
[05:18] <fyrestrtr> porky_scratching: without knowing what encryption scheme is used, there is no use to brute force anything.
[05:18] <kronoz_> how do i configure CUPS?
[05:19] <connfrey> fyrestrtr, yes, I know, but I'm in console, and I'm not in the dir of partition, something is using it, can I discoveer what?
[05:19] <th0rndike> !nfs
[05:19] <ubotu> somebody said nfs was see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSClientHowTo and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NFSServerHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[05:19] <fyrestrtr> kronoz_: System -> Administration -> Printing
[05:19] <eyequeue> Mez: so the backports have a tilde? cool, that's familiar
[05:19] <JoeMorris> nickrud right but does this work even with betas?
[05:19] <th0rndike> ;)
[05:19] <JoeMorris> nickrud and alphas?
[05:19] <porky_scratching> yes knowing the algorithm is a good start but no idea even how to do that :/
[05:19] <phreak97> nickrud, i cant have monitor 1 go higher, it doesnt support it
[05:19] <kronoz_> fyrestrtr: i've tried that justs stays on initilizing manager
[05:19] <phreak97> it's my tv
[05:19] <graveson> i am receiving an error with k3b about encrypted dvd when trying to copy my dvd's.how can i get around this
[05:19] <Mez> eyequeue, sorry dpkg -l | grep \~
[05:20] <JoeMorris> nickrud:  what im getting at is if i install flight 5 dapper, and just keep updating, i will not need to install the new dapper when it comes out?
[05:20] <JoeMorris> and i never will?
[05:20] <kronoz_> graveson; libdvdcss
[05:20] <fyrestrtr> connfrey: you can perhaps find out from the process list, but if its something like a network mount --- it could be a delay in the network. If its a cd, it could be a bad cd (stuck on reading).
[05:20] <eyequeue> Mez: null output, that's not bash interpreting it as $HOME is it?  lol, gotcha
[05:20] <kronoz_> something like that
[05:20] <nickrud> phreak97, point to you, and there are no refresh & sync ranges in monitor 0 (sorry, I misread, that's the one you are using) I'm overmultitasking, I'll use that as my excuse :)
[05:20] <fyrestrtr> You can force unmount it if you want, but this is a last resort.
[05:20] <porky_scratching> I dont wanna trwal hacking sites so I need a good white hat cracking tool everyone trusts if there is such a thing

[05:21] <tristanmike> th0rndike, what's the update for ?
[05:21] <nickrud> phreak97, the values from your monitor manual
[05:21] <JoeMorris> which is the faq on monitors?

[05:22] <JoeMorris> everyone has issues with the monitors
[05:22] <dli> I'm on dialup, can I generate a list of needed .deb files for a package, so I can download them from other system
[05:22] <JoeMorris> with windows it doesnt detect it right either
[05:22] <fyrestrtr> everyone except for me :)
[05:22] <JoeMorris> but it gives me multiple refresh rates to choose
[05:22] <tristanmike> My monitor is just peachy
[05:23] <apokryphos> dli: you'll want to look into apt-zip
[05:23] <JoeMorris> not everyone i mean a handful
[05:23] <dli> apokryphos, thanks
[05:23] <nickrud> I had a card that didn't work with ddc, I had to do it by hand for every monitor I ever attached
[05:23] <JoeMorris> after one changes sync frequencies for the monitor, how do you add in the additional higher refresh rates?
[05:24] <dli> apokryphos, looks good, thanks
[05:24] <JoeMorris> also whats the faq for the sync frequency changing :P

[05:25] <th0rndike> ok nvm i got it

[05:25] <nickrud> phreak97, look up your monitor on the web, get the correct values

[05:25] <nickrud> phreak97, cuz it matters?

[05:26] <SilentJihad> Howdy, can anyone help me install Mplayer codecs? I FINALLY got Mplayer installed correctly
[05:26] <SilentJihad> but I cant seem to figure how to install all the codecs and stuf
[05:26] <SilentJihad> f
[05:26] <nickrud> !codecs
[05:26] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories
[05:26] <vars> !codecs
[05:26] <_jason> ubotu: tell SilentJihad about w32codecs
[05:26] <nena> olaaaaaaaaaaaa
[05:26] <vars> ahh
[05:26] <nena> de donde
[05:26] <graveson> fyrestrtr: i have that installed already ,which software would you recommend to  use then to copy
[05:26] <Rawplayer> m?
[05:26] <soundray> malverian[work] : avahi looks promising. Thanks for the hint.
[05:26] <k31th> anyone know of this webadmin front end like cpanel but free i think its a debian only project
[05:26] <JoeMorris> nickrud:  i have to reinstall dapper, as i tried suse 10.1 beta 8, they had the heads up on some stuff like the boot screen and the fit and finish is just a tad sharper, but dapper is catching up nicely
[05:27] <kahuna_> Hi. How can I get a list of installed packages from the command line?
[05:27] <JoeMorris> dapper is nicer in other respects
[05:27] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, mPlayer and VLC come with their own built in codecs
[05:27] <soundray> kahuna_: dpkg -l
[05:27] <refnumzx> cahuna: dpkg -l
[05:27] <JoeMorris> the 2 best distros tho are definitely suse and ubuntu IMHO, fedora really is losing the edge it had back in the days
[05:27] <vars> tristanmike, mplayer does not play .wma  files out of the box
[05:27] <fyrestrtr> k31th: webmin ?
[05:28] <kahuna_> that easy? I can't believe I missed that in the man page
[05:28] <nickrud> JoeMorris, I have a dapper partition I use some; #ubuntu+1 probably has more useful help for you
[05:28] <JoeMorris> ok
[05:28] <JoeMorris> thanks :)
[05:28] <tristanmike> vars, i never said it did, and .wma, pfft, use a better codec :P
[05:28] <JoeMorris> nickrud a few bugs so far tho, tried to load some stuff, it did weird stuff
[05:29] <soundray> kahuna_: if you only want the names, try dpkg -l | tr -s " " | cut -d " " -f 2
[05:29] <gogo_> How do i make windows the default operating system?
[05:29] <JoeMorris> nickrud:  im glad dapper was extended to june 1st
[05:29] <soundray> gogo_: with grub?
[05:29] <JoeMorris> should be nice by then
[05:29] <gogo_> how exactly?
[05:29] <kahuna_> soundray: just what I was looking for,
[05:29] <kahuna_> thanks man.
[05:30] <nickrud> JoeMorris, biggest but is I can't use my useless modem which works in breezy; when I have time to fix that (if possible) I'll probably switch to dapper as my primary
[05:30] <soundray> gogo_: I mean, are you using grub? Use the default option, point it to the Windows stanza by number.
[05:30] <dli> nickrud, what modem? in lspci?
[05:30] <phreak97> nickrud, i have an lg studioworks 700s
[05:30] <soundray> gogo_: find out the number by counting the title lines, starting with 0
[05:30] <phreak97> nickrud, i cant find the specs
[05:30] <fyrestrtr> wow Banshee really is the best music program for Linux. Surprised I haven't heard of it, but damn, its nice :D
[05:30] <gogo_> yes i'm using grub
[05:31] <soop> when are they going to make wifi simple? :P
[05:31] <fyrestrtr> its like iTunes -- *exactly* like iTunes
[05:31] <soundray> gogo_: I should say that I'm talking about the file /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:31] <nickrud> dli, 0000:01:0b.0 Communication controller: Lucent Microelectronics 56k WinModem (rev 01)
[05:31] <soop> my cards autodetected but i can't connect to shit
[05:31] <fyrestrtr> nickrud: linmodem.org -- try there.
[05:31] <gogo_> thanx soundray
[05:31] <dli> nickrud, I heard lucent wrote some drivers for linux
[05:31] <nickrud> fyrestrtr, I know, I've just got to find the time (I'm already behind on normal work today ;)
[05:31] <soundray> soop: everything becomes simple to use once the specs are out in the open. Unfortunately, that is a problem with wireless and certain other technologies
[05:32] <fyrestrtr> ah right okay then :)
[05:32] <Lorvija> hmm.. little ot but how much is 9th root of 2.5? :E
[05:32] <fyrestrtr> yeah and with this 'pre-n' stuff coming out, its another headache.
[05:32] <Lorvija> cant find any calculator which can do that... and mine is currently @ school :E
[05:32] <dli> nickrud, I just went through the modem nightmare in past weeks, eventually, I spent $20 CAN to buy a hardware external modem
[05:32] <phreak97> nickrud, got an email address i can get you on? i seriously am going to bed now
[05:33] <phreak97> it's 3am and im not terribly well
[05:33] <dli> Lorvija, 1.10717
[05:33] <soundray> gogo_: this is neat: 'grep ^title /boot/grub/menu.lst | nl -v 0' to see which boot stanza is which by number.
[05:33] <Lorvija> dli thanks
[05:33] <grout_> how do i get ubunut to boot off my serial ata drive?
[05:34] <dli> Lorvija, 1.107173178889911071584407654114979682576317695417535569208650836 , if it matters
[05:34] <grout_> its automatically sets the boot loader to my ide drive
[05:34] <Lorvija> dli heh thanks ;)
[05:34] <fyrestrtr> dli: how did you find out my bank balance!
[05:34] <fyrestrtr> damn, should change that pass.
[05:34] <soundray> grout_, install it with 'sudo grub-install /dev/sda', where /dev/sda is your SATA drive.
[05:35] <dli> fyrestrtr, poor you
[05:35] <Esco> what is "sudo:unable to lookup via gethost by name()"
[05:35] <dli> soundray, I think "setup" in grub command line is still recommended over grub --install
[05:35] <fyrestrtr> Esco: when running what command?
[05:35] <nickrud> dli, I'll probably go that route. I miss motherboards with isa slots, I have a fine internal hardware modem.
[05:35] <phreak97> nickrud, i wrote down your nick and im pming you my email address, email me your own address..
[05:35] <Esco> sudo
[05:35] <fyrestrtr> Esco: sudo what?
[05:36] <grout_> soundray: when do i type the sudo-grub install in?
[05:36] <soundray> Esco: what's the point of asking a question if you ignore the replies?
[05:36] <dli> nickrud, do you have serial port?
[05:36] <MrCollins> why does it say if we have a linksys or netgear router for a firmware update?
[05:36] <g0dchild> !xchat
[05:36] <ubotu> hmm... xchat is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/XChatHowto http://www.xchat.org/
[05:36] <Esco> sudo everything

[05:37] <nickrud> dli, but of course. I'm just cheap. I hate replacing perfectly good hardware just because it's obsolete :)

[05:38] <MrCollins> im gonna install ubuntu on a box..
[05:38] <dli> nickrud, if so, you may try the model I bought, Actiontec EX560LKU , USB/Serial, it works for me in ubuntu
[05:38] <MrCollins> its just for pictures of family and friends..
[05:38] <soundray> graveson, some DVDs have more sophisticated copy protection than CSS.
[05:38] <FliesLikeABrick> k MrCollins  so save that instruction for later or be prepared to ask again ;)
[05:38] <MrCollins> ok thanks FliesLikeABrick
[05:39] <Esco> fyrestrtr:??

[05:45] <_jason> SilentJihad: paste exactly what you entered
[05:46] <soundray> graveson: if copy protection is the problem, Windows won't help either.
[05:46] <SilentJihad> ok
[05:46] <soundray> graveson: is mounting the DVD and copying the files to hd an option?
[05:47] <fr500> hello
[05:48] <lola> hi

[05:48] <fr500> me?
[05:48] <lola> y
[05:48] <g0dchild> WHy cant I recieve files from DCC?
[05:48] <g0dchild> on xchat :(
[05:48] <soundray> fr500, call it from /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[05:48] <lola> noooooooo
[05:48] <graveson> soundray : it is an option ,but i tried that ,and wasted 3 dvd-r's because it just did not work
[05:49] <worthawholebean> g0dchild: probably firewall problems
[05:49] <lola> i like y
[05:49] <soundray> graveson: when you have the files on the hard disk drive, can you play them from there?
[05:49] <fr500> soundray, i do a script and call it from there?
[05:49] <soundray> fr500: that would be one way to handle it.
[05:50] <lola> i want fuck please
[05:50] <fyrestrtr> fr500: or, you can always fiddle with /etc/rc*
[05:50] <IamEthos> is the ext3 windows driver at fs-driver.org reliable enough for me to store a lot of data that has to be windows and linux accessible on it?

[05:50] <fyrestrtr> IamEthos: use FAT32
[05:50] <graveson> soundray:yes i can
[05:50] <fyrestrtr> works both ways
[05:50] <IamEthos> FAT32?
[05:50] <IamEthos> Linux can write to that?

[05:53] <Ohm> I need a IDE for programing in C++, where I found?
[05:53] <fyrestrtr> oh thanks Amaranth
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: eclipse, kdevelop
[05:54] <Amaranth> wasn't me
[05:54] <Ohm> eclipse is for JAVA, isn't?
[05:54] <rafal> siema
[05:54] <eyequeue> the router, i've got a couple of them remotely deployed (hence fw upgrades are non-trivial) .. how bad is this hole that i presume exists?
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: you can use it for C also with the appropriate plugin
[05:54] <g0dchild> ok, worthawholebean , the funniest thing- i remember installing a firewall trying to tinker with dnsmasq....now i caNT find the executable for the firewall...so i ma gonna install kmyfirewall and see if i can get it right once more

[05:55] <Ohm> fyrestrtr,  I have the eclipse installed, how can I install the plugin for C++?
[05:55] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: find one on the internet, then follow the install instructions.
[05:56] <cwoods> join #ubuntu
[05:57] <ompaul> cwoods, your there already
[05:57] <fyrestrtr> you are already there
[05:57] <eyequeue> cwoods: it worked, you're here ;)
[05:57] <cwoods> yep
[05:57] <cwoods> I am having some apt-get difficulties
[05:57] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: I use eclipse for java, c, c++, php and python
[05:57] <eyequeue> cwoods: ask
[05:57] <fyrestrtr> !ask
[05:58] <Ohm> fyrestrtr,  I will try install the plugin
[05:58] <fyrestrtr> gl Ohm :)
[05:58] <cwoods> I installed webmin from a tarball and now I am getting "E: The package webmin needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it."
[05:58] <cwoods> when running apt-get install [app] 
[05:59] <dli> cwoods, I heard nobody should use webmin, unless it's not on public net
[05:59] <eyequeue> cwoods: what does 'apt-get install webmin' tell you?
[06:00] <fyrestrtr> cwoods: any reason you didn't use apt-get to install webmin?
[06:00] <cwoods> sudo apt-get install webmin
[06:00] <cwoods> Reading package lists... Done

[06:00] <cwoods> E: The package webmin needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[06:00] <eyequeue> cwoods: i'm presuming your /etc/apt/sources.list is good, of course start there if it is not
[06:00] <eyequeue> soundray: ;)
[06:00] <Ohm> fyrestrtr, You remenber where you found the plugin?
[06:00] <bosco> so what is u p
[06:01] <cwoods> yes it is good, and I am not sure why I did it from the tarball

[06:01] <akin_to> do you know where i can find downloaded files from update manager?
[06:01] <fyrestrtr> Ohm: eclipse-plugins.net or something like that.
[06:01] <akin_to> do you know where i can find downloaded files from update manager?
[06:01] <soundray> akin_to: /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:01] <akin_to> tnx
[06:01] <Ohm> fyrestrtr,  thanks
[06:02] <eyequeue> cwoods: sudo apt-get update, before the install command, just in case
[06:03] <eyequeue> cwoods: the 'can't find an archive for it' syntax is new to me
[06:03] <mikebot> how do i open the tutorial in emacs?
[06:03] <cwoods> yes I did try that prior to install
[06:03] <thefish_> fsckkkkk
[06:03] <soundray> akin_to: I don't know -- I would try 'sudo apt-get install wine'
[06:04] <eyequeue> mikebot: it's been a long time since i ued it, but the opening screen always mentione it, i thought
[06:05] <alekz> Can someone explain me why i have this problem? virus@home:~$ sudo -i
[06:05] <alekz> sudo: must be setuid root
[06:06] <bosco> i know the new dapper comes out this april so is it april 1 when ?
[06:06] <alekz> bosco, it'll come on june
[06:06] <soundray> !dapper
[06:06] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[06:06] <eyequeue> bosco: i believe the date was pushed back 6 weeks for testing
[06:06] <bosco> eyequeue, thank you cuZ i rhought i herd april but thanks
[06:06] <bosco> i will check into it
[06:06] <bosco> again
[06:07] <viller> i installed vim-gnome but how can i execute it? I tried vim-gnome in the terminal, but it doesn't work
[06:07] <soundray> alekz: to fix this, you will have to boot in recovery mode and run 'chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo'
[06:07] <eyequeue> bosco: the normal date was april, but this is a one-time thing
[06:07] <alekz> soundray, why i have that problem ?
[06:07] <soundray> alekz: any idea how you got into this situation?
[06:08] <bosco> eyequeue,  that is all good i would rather have it work more out of the box and not have to mess with it anyways
[06:08] <alekz> soundray, i enabled root account, maybe that ?
[06:08] <soundray> alekz: if you enabled the root account, you can fix it without booting into recovery. Just run chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo as root.
[06:08] <Alexi5> hello guys
[06:09] <eyequeue> bosco: yeah, we're looking for "perfection" on this one
[06:09] <soundray> alekz, perhaps check permissions on the file before and after with ls -l. They should be -rwsr-xr-x
[06:09] <Alexi5> i have a laptop with a intel 1.66GHZ centrino duo processor
[06:09] <bosco> eyequeue,  yup yup so i have heard much better than the last one
[06:09] <bosco> than breezy
[06:09] <soundray> Alexi5: congratulations
[06:09] <Alexi5> i want to know if ubuntu can work on it
[06:09] <alekz> ok soundray thanks
[06:09] <fyrestrtr> yes
[06:10] <eyequeue> that's the goal, though imo breezy has been quite good anyway
[06:10] <bosco> eyequeue,  do you know what some of the new things might be or does anyone know
[06:10] <bosco> in dapper
[06:10] <eyequeue> yeah, i know there's a page on it, but am drawing a blank, does anyone know offhand?
[06:10] <bosco> eyequeue,  i will look it up thanks
[06:10] <bosco> though
[06:10] <bosco> lol'
[06:10] <cwoods> eyequeue: any other suggestions for my apt-get problem?
[06:10] <eyequeue> bosco: if no one chimes in soon, search for Dapper in ubuntuforums
[06:11] <bosco> eyequeue,  will do will do
[06:11] <eyequeue> cwoods: no sorry, id say 'apt-get --reinstall install webmin' but that 'can't find an archive thing would probably prevent that
[06:12] <Mr_Morden> anyone runs WoW on Ubuntu?
[06:12] <eyequeue> cwoods: this is brute force, but can you try to manually eliminate any trace of webmin, then start over with that command?
[06:13] <malverian[work] > Someone wanted me?
[06:13] <cwoods> eyequeue: ok thanks
[06:13] <eyequeue> cwoods: actually, first, paste me the last line (only) of the following output
[06:13] <eyequeue> cwoods: dpkg -l webmin
[06:13] <soundray> malverian[work] : I said thanks for the pointer towards avahi a while ago.
[06:14] <malverian[work] > soundray, No problem.
[06:14] <eyequeue> cwoods: or rather the one line that talks about webmin, not webmin-something
[06:15] <munsa_> Hello, can anyone help me with Mplayer? I downloaded the Mplayer after 2 days i finally got it to work (Compiled from source) I installed the Codecs pack just now but It dosent seem to help, I have sound but no video

[06:15] <eyequeue> cwoods: what i get here is: ii  webmin         1.230-1        web-based administration toolkit

[06:17] <mackyman>      * * * * * means minute hour date month year
[06:17] <eyequeue> cwoods: just that one line, heh
[06:17] <munsa_> !pastebin
[06:17] <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 ,
[06:17] <mackyman> And on another site:

[06:18] <cwoods> eyequeue: that is why I was kicked
[06:18] <eyequeue> cwoods: but anyway, you seem to have a version newer than i do, and i'm on dapper, so what gives there?
[06:18] <cwoods> eyequeue: well the latest tarball was 1.26
[06:18] <alekz> i want that a command be performed at startup how can i do it ?
[06:18] <snowblink> mackyman, man 5 crontab
[06:18] <mackyman> ok
[06:19] <munsa_> soundray :: this is what I get from mplayer -vo help
[06:19] <munsa_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10689
[06:19] <cwoods> eyequeue: gotta run to a meeting thanks for the help so far.
[06:19] <kedaeus> Could anyone explain to me why I can't install Anjuta-1.2.4? "*** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop."
[06:19] <Xenguy> alekz: in GNOME, look for submenu Sessions
[06:19] <eyequeue> cwoods: here's what i get some "apt-cache show webmin"    Filename: pool/universe/w/webmin/webmin_1.230-1_all.deb
[06:19] <eyequeue> cwoods: good luck, gotta run too
[06:19] <kedaeus> It's actually.. obviousl.. But I dunno where to go from there. :)
[06:20] <alekz> let me check Xenguy
[06:20] <soundray> munsa_: okay, then try running 'mplayer -vo gl yourvideo.wmv'
[06:20] <cwoods> eyequeue: crap I used alien to install the rpm, my bad
[06:20] <mackyman> Thanks snowblink
[06:20] <eyequeue> cwoods: gotcha
[06:21] <mackyman> Then it's incorrect in the unofficial ubuntuguide
[06:21] <munsa_> soundray
[06:21] <eyequeue> cwoods: maybe rpm --whatever to remove, and then apt-get install?
[06:21] <munsa_> just sound
[06:21] <eyequeue> cwoods: if you don'thave any version specific dire needs
[06:22] <alekz> Xenguy, but i want that the command start when the computer turns on
[06:22] <soundray> munsa_: maybe it's a WMV9 -- I don't think there's a codec for mplayer that plays that. Do you have an mpeg you can try?
[06:22] <Xenguy> alekz: what command?
[06:22] <alekz> Xenguy, a darkbot
[06:22] <_jason> soundray: w32codecs will play wmv9
[06:23] <Xenguy> alekz: no idea what that is
[06:23] <munsa_> humm, I think that my codecs did not install
[06:23] <soundray> munsa_: I stand corrected, thanks _jason.
[06:23] <alekz> 10x anyway Xenguy
[06:23] <munsa_> I am sure they downloaded but apparently they didnt install...
[06:23] <alekz> can someone tell me how to add a command to start when my pc turns on ?
[06:23] <timon> ubuntu laggs for me every 2sec for a millisec, dosent matter what i do screensaver or scrolling in fire fox, but i have no lagg when playing q4
[06:24] <kedaeus> Heh..
[06:24] <soundray> alekz: add it to /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[06:24] <alekz> thanks soundray
[06:24] <jeekl> Hi! Could someone help me with this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=836759
[06:24] <soundray> alekz: or put a script in /etc/network/if-up.d/ if it depends on the network.
[06:25] <munsa_> _jason, I downloaded the codecs from the website, they downloaded for a while, I assumed they installed correctly but I guess they didnt...  This is what I get when I run  the file
[06:25] <munsa_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10690
[06:26] <_jason> munsa_: did you install mplayer from the repositories?
[06:26] <munsa_> no
[06:26] <munsa_> from source
[06:26] <munsa_> _jason should I remove this and install from the repositorieS?
[06:26] <_jason> munsa_: that would be easiest
[06:26] <munsa_> because Gmplayer lockes up everytime I try and use it too
[06:27] <munsa_> how do I remove it?
[06:27] <_jason> munsa_: did you use checkinstall to install it?
[06:27] <munsa_> yea
[06:27] <munsa_> _jason yea I used checkinstall
[06:27] <_jason> munsa_: search for mplayer in synaptic and remove it (or aptitude if you prefer)

[06:34] <polpak> kedaeus, what are you trying to install?
[06:34] <_jason> Esco1234: choose a hostname, for example ``ubuntu'' and change the contents of /etc/hostname to ``ubuntu'' without quotes and the first line in /etc/hosts to: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localadmin localhost ubuntu

[06:37] <simongo> join /#ubuntu-es
[06:38] <potto> _jason i'm installing the win32codec like the link explained, wich players does this coder effect?
[06:38] <hartz> hello everyone.
[06:38] <nalioth> how lovely
[06:38] <_jason> potto: mplayer and xine use them, I don't know if some others may as well
[06:38] <ccc_> simongo: try /join #ubuntu-es
[06:38] <hartz> Does Firefox 1.06 die on you too?
[06:38] <hartz> And if so, does it get better if you upgrade?

[06:39] <kedaeus> danke

[06:40] <varmint> hi everybody... just installed ubuntu

[06:40] <potto> _jason: Thanks, hope it will work
[06:40] <eobanb> varmint, welcome
[06:40] <grout_> ubuntu is installing grub on the wrong hard drive during installation, how can i change it?
[06:40] <kedaeus> lol
[06:40] <varmint> works fine I think...
[06:41] <apokryphos> grout_: /msg ubotu grub
[06:41] <potto> Another question for you pro's, how can i extract .RAR?
[06:41] <_jason> !rar
[06:41] <ubotu> somebody said rar was a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[06:41] <cyphase> i hate when people say stuff like "SIP-based"
[06:42] <cyphase> is it using SIP, or is it a protocol that looks like SIP
[06:42] <oskari> #ubuntu-fi
[06:42] <soundray> jeekl: synaptic stores its proxy settings under /root/.synaptic/ -- that shouldn't affect apt at all. Did you change anything under /etc/apt?
[06:42] <cyphase> *sigh*
[06:42] <potto> thanks _jason
[06:43] <jeekl> soundray: No, I didn't do a thing with apt. And my lack of a apt-conf file also alerts me some. Should I have one?
[06:43] <eobanb> cyphase, you're referring to the new yahoo messenger?
[06:43] <varmint> sry must go, bye all.
[06:43] <cyphase> eobanb, yea
[06:43] <eobanb> heh.
[06:44] <cyphase> eobanb, i realize it's probably using SIP
[06:44] <cyphase> but it's not always the case
[06:44] <eobanb> probably.
[06:44] <eobanb> right
[06:44] <eobanb> cyphase, apple's ichat uses SIP but that doesnt mean it inter-operates with other stuff
[06:44] <soundray> jeekl: there is no apt-conf file. There should be a directory of conffiles called /etc/apt/apt.conf.d though.
[06:44] <cyphase> eobanb, yea..
[06:44] <jeekl> soundray: IU have one of those :-)
[06:44] <lperezf> hola
[06:44] <jeekl> Should be I have
[06:45] <grout_> can u install ubuntu from the live cd's?

[06:45] <boogieman> Hello all, I need your help. I'm new to Ubuntu (Breezy); installed skype and it's having very ugly fonts, i googled and found out about this post : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-69459.html which is similar to my problem. However the steps didn't work for me.
[06:45] <cyphase> grout_, with Dapper you can
[06:45] <cyphase> grout_, Dapper is the next version of ubuntu
[06:45] <grout_> so how do i change grub if i cant get into the system?
[06:46] <cyphase> boot into a live cd and change the config file
[06:46] <apokryphos> Grout58: you're going to have to use a LiveCD
[06:46] <cyphase> what happened to it?
[06:46] <soundray> grout_, didn't it say on the wiki page you got from ubotu earlier?
[06:46] <soundray> !tell grout_ about grub
[06:46] <soundray> grout_, you can reinstall grub from the install CD.
[06:47] <grout_> yes but how do i tell it to go to the sata drive and not hda
[06:48] <soundray> jeekl: this is hard to diagnose remotely. Do you want to try a blind fix?
[06:48] <cyphase> grout_, just load the live cd, then go to System -> Administration -> Disks
[06:48] <grout_> after i install the base system right?
[06:49] <jeekl> soundray: A blind fix? What would that be? I have a openssh-server installed if you want to meddle with my system.
[06:49] <soundray> jeekl: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt'
[06:49] <cyphase> grout_, what are you talking about?
[06:50] <soundray> jeekl: don't offer people on IRC a login on your system, it's not safe.
[06:50] <cyphase> grout_, do you want to fix grub, or do you want to reinstall ubuntu?
[06:50] <kedaeus> :)
[06:50] <jeekl> soundray: Okey, I'll try that.
[06:50] <Centurion_[Roger> Hallo, people! :) Tell me anybody plz why KDM might not start on system start? Breezy Badger 2.6.13

[06:50] <jeekl> soundray: I know it's not safe, but someone who puts that much effort into helping me is trustworthy. And i change my passwords quite often...
[06:51] <soundray> grout_, cyphase, can you invite me?
[06:51] <cyphase> soundray, invite you?
[06:51] <cyphase> it's a pm..
[06:51] <cyphase> we could go into some channel
[06:52] <jeekl> soundray: did a reconfig, problem still there though.

[06:53] <humbolt> Wine sort of sucks!
[06:53] <ZyLoR> can anyone help me please?
[06:53] <ZyLoR> :(
[06:53] <Centurion_[Roger> repeat: telll me anybody plz why KDM might not start on system start? Breezy Badger 2.6.13
[06:53] <epinephrine> humbolt: vmware or qemu
[06:53] <grout_> cyphase: go into the chanel #grout
[06:53] <jeekl> soundray: I'm not a total newb, I think I would notice if you tried compiling rootkits into my kernel or something like that ;-)
[06:53] <ccc_> Centurion_[Roger: maybe you should update it to the current kde version, if it's not already up to date.
[06:53] <soundray> jeekl: you could try the following:
[06:54] <humbolt> How does VMware work? Is there a way, I can use my existing WinXP partition?
[06:54] <cyphase> grout_, #cyphase :P
[06:54] <cyphase> soundray is there
[06:54] <Centurion_[Roger> ZyLoR: try vmware
[06:54] <ZyLoR> men
[06:54] <epinephrine> you can boot from a real partition, but I wouldn't recommend it
[06:54] <ZyLoR> i'm new @ linux
[06:54] <ZyLoR> :(
[06:54] <notre12> noter 12
[06:54] <ZyLoR> how do i use it?
[06:54] <humbolt> epinephrine: what is qemu?
[06:54] <ZyLoR> Centurion_[Roger
[06:54] <epinephrine> similar to vmware
[06:55] <epinephrine> just open source, free and a bit slower and harder to setup
[06:55] <Centurion_[Roger> ccc_: it is up to date
[06:55] <soundray> jeekl: you could try a purge and reinstall of apt. That's a bit involved, though...
[06:55] <humbolt> epinephrine: is it from the same software company but the scaled down free version?
[06:55] <boogieman> Hello all, I need your help. I'm new to Ubuntu (Breezy); installed skype and it's having very ugly fonts, i googled and found out about this post : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-69459.html which is similar to my problem. However the steps didn't work for me.

[07:01] <soundray> ^^ I like this one ;)
[07:01] <boogieman> Well, i have being asking the question for sometime
[07:01] <boogieman> Hello all, I need your help. I'm new to Ubuntu (Breezy); installed skype and it's having very ugly fonts, i googled and found out about this post : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-69459.html which is similar to my problem. However the steps didn't work for me.
[07:02] <jeekl> soundray: hehe, Thanks. One thing though: 'sudo dpkg --purge apt ; sudo dpkg -i /safe/place/apt*' got me thinking... I've never used purge before, what would be a safe place to install apt into?
[07:02] <ViRuSaKe> can anynoe help me ?
[07:02] <Amaranth> jeekl: don't uninstall apt
[07:03] <ViRuSaKe> *anyone
[07:03] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: Please ask a question.
[07:03] <ViRuSaKe> how should i get the permissions to read hdd`s in ubuntu ?
[07:03] <soundray> jeekl: you install apt in the usual place. My suggestion is to move its archive out of the cache dir before you purge, because the cache dir may get removed during the purge.
[07:03] <potto> Can anyone help me with some Firefox problems? it feels like my Firefox is out of date.. i get a heck load of pop-ups and i can't get flash to work quite right
[07:04] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: Tring to mount a windows partition?
[07:04] <jmorris1> !fixres
[07:04] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:04] <soundray> jeekl: then, when you install apt again with a "fresh" configuration, you know that the archive is still there. Know what I'm saying?
[07:04] <GigaClon> potto, what verson
[07:04] <ViRuSaKe> they are allready mounted but i don`t have the permission to view them
[07:04] <Amaranth> !ntfs
[07:04] <ubotu> ntfs is, like, the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:04] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: That link shows you how to mount them so you can view them.
[07:05] <potto> GigaClon: 1.0.7
[07:05] <jenda> What are the amazing thing I can do if I now have two 100% Ubuntu PCs, one of which is a laptop? :)

[07:05] <_jason> jenda: juggly them would be amazing
[07:05] <_jason> jenda: s/juggly/juggling
[07:05] <jeekl> soundray: Be right back. Give me ten minutes. ;-)
[07:05] <soundray> jeekl: got my fingers crossed ;)
[07:06] <jenda> _jason: Aughta try that... damn, dropped my laptop on top of my desktop ... (too many tops)
[07:06] <soundray> grout58: still here?
[07:06] <GigaClon> potto, stop vistiting sites with popups ;)
[07:06] <GigaClon> or check your option in the popup blocker
[07:06] <ViRuSaKe> Amaranth  but they are mounted
[07:07] <boogieman> oskude: thanks
[07:07] <potto> GigaClon, gah :P
[07:07] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: But they aren't mounted correctly, read that page.
[07:07] <bohors> hello
[07:07] <ViRuSaKe> by the way i did something bad :( i activated the root login option
[07:07] <potto> GigaClon, what about flash then? some flash sites are kinda messed up
[07:07] <_jason> ubotu: tell ViRuSaKe about root
[07:07] <soundray> jenda: a fun thing to find out is if you can wake one with the other (ethtool, etherwake).
[07:08] <jmorris1> can someone help me fix my monitor res
[07:08] <jenda> wow, that's cool :)
[07:08] <ViRuSaKe> and i typed the command: sudo -R username /
[07:08] <jmorris1> in the existing file it has this:

[07:09] <Esco1234> -jason:yes i try but it did not work
[07:09] <jmorris1> do i change the monitor type
[07:09] <soundray> jenda: also check out rsync and unison for syncing the homedirs between the pair.
[07:09] <jmorris1> or just keep it with generic monitor but change the #s
[07:09] <_jason> Esco1234: what do you mean by didn't work?
[07:10] <ViRuSaKe> Amaranth so can u help me fix the problem or not ?
[07:10] <Amaranth> jmorris1: change the numbers
[07:10] <_jason> Esco1234: your pastebin still appears to have the old /etc/hosts
[07:10] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: Follow that guide.
[07:10] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: That's all you have to do.
[07:10] <ViRuSaKe> yes but i did something bad also
[07:10] <Esco1234> i make what you tell me,but the same mistake came "sudo unable to lookup via get host by name()
[07:11] <jmorris1> amaranth:  Which is horizontal and which is vertical,  31 -107 KHz, 50-160 Hz
[07:11] <ViRuSaKe> i logged in as root and i typed sudo -R username / in terminal mode

[07:11] <ViRuSaKe> now i recieve an error when i login as root
[07:11] <jmorris1> amaranth:  I got the figures from a website but it doesnt say which is horizontal and vertical
[07:11] <_jason> Esco1234: what do the first lines in/etc/hosts and /etc/hostname look like now?
[07:11] <Guard] [an> hello
[07:11] <Amaranth> jmorris1: first is horizontal
[07:11] <Guard] [an> i can't wait for dapper official release :)
[07:11] <ViRuSaKe> also sudo doesn`t work anymore is user mode
[07:11] <soundray> jmorris1: horizontal is fast, vertical is slow
[07:11] <Esco1234> hostname its ubuntu
[07:11] <oskude> boogieman, try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=76633
[07:11] <Amaranth> ViRuSaKe: I don't know about that. I leave sudo and root alone.
[07:12] <jmorris1> soundray so then the 2nd one is horizontal?
[07:12] <jmorris1> its faster
[07:12] <Esco1234> and hosts its 127.0.0.1 localhost.localadmin localhost ubuntu
[07:12] <soundray> jmorris1: no, look at the units.
[07:12] <_jason> Esco1234: try rebooting
[07:12] <soundray> jmorris1: the k means a factor of 1000
[07:12] <jmorris1> oh
[07:12] <jmorris1> gotcha
[07:12] <sfar-ubu> is it possible to save my panel/background/desklet-settings etc when i later upgrade from breezy to dapper?
[07:12] <Esco1234> yes i done it bus it doesnt work
[07:12] <_jason> Esco1234: it has to work -_-
[07:12] <rend> when trying to run xorg. i get: Error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module is version 1.0.7667, but      this X module is version 1.0.8178.
[07:13] <Esco1234> no it doesnt work
[07:13] <oskude> boogieman, but i remember seeing a simpler method, but cant find it anymore... (or i recall incorrect)
[07:13] <_jason> Esco1234: are you sure there is not typo anywhere? get rid of any stray characters like newlines in /etc/hostname
[07:13] <soundray> sfar-ubu: they will remain untouched.
[07:13] <sfar-ubu> ah
[07:13] <boogieman> oskude: thanks again. I'll try this method and let you know
[07:13] <potto> does gaim have any way to recive and add smileys from MSN users?
[07:13] <Esco1234> jason:i look for it and reboot please wait
[07:14] <rend> how do the nvidia kernel modules get loaded? how can i see what version the kernel module is?
[07:15] <Evaso2> hi guys actually ubuntu support islsm wifi module?

[07:15] <ViRuSaKe> sudo: must be setuid root
[07:16] <ViRuSaKe> why ?
[07:16] <rend> is there an alternate channel than this one for support?
[07:16] <_jason> ViRuSaKe: ls -l `which sudo`
[07:16] <soundray> rend: try 'dmesg | grep nvidia' to see if the module says anything about its version when it gets loaded.

[07:17] <_jason> ViRuSaKe: best if we talk here
[07:17] <ViRuSaKe> ok
[07:17] <rend> so it loaded the wrong one
[07:17] <ViRuSaKe> i did something bad
[07:18] <soundray> rend: there you go. Don't paste next time pls.
[07:18] <_jason> ViRuSaKe: please tell me you didn't chown -R / ?

[07:18] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:18] <ViRuSaKe> YES that`s what i did
[07:18] <ViRuSaKe> as root
[07:18] <rend> soundray: ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8178-pkg1.run says i already have the 8178 installed
[07:18] <ViRuSaKe> :(
[07:18] <Mabus06> how come my system is so laggy? I have a 2.8ghz processor and 1gb of ram, and no processes in the system log are using much of it at all. But gedit shortcut doesn't work, only gedit from terminal. Totem plays horribly out of sync, and lags like 30 seconds between items on the playlist. Rhythmbox is just as bad. Help?
[07:19] <soundray> rend: did you use Ubuntu wiki instructions to install the driver?
[07:19] <rend> soundray: so now i just need to know how to remove the older nvidia kernel driver from being loaded, and locate and use the newer one?
[07:19] <ViRuSaKe> i logged in as root and i typed this line in terminal: chown -R virus /
[07:19] <polpak> ViRuSaKe, =(
[07:19] <ViRuSaKe> virus is the username
[07:19] <rend> soundray: no, they wouldnt work for my setup.
[07:19] <fiendskull9> how do i rename a directory?
[07:19] <fiendskull9> !rename
[07:19] <polpak> fiendskull9, mv directory new_directory
[07:19] <_jason> any suggestions for ViRuSaKe?  He decided to give ownership to everything in / to the user ``virus''.  Should he just chown / to root and then change his $HOME back to virus or is there a better suggestion?
[07:20] <ViRuSaKe> now i also recieve an error message when i login as root
[07:20] <oskude> fiendskull9, mv dirname newdirname
[07:20] <polpak> _jason, I think some things need to be owned by other users too..
[07:20] <_jason> ViRuSaKe: what's that?
[07:21] <Pietras1988> http://s2.bitefight.pl/c.php?uid=35036
[07:21] <kedaeus> apt-get install ubuntu-base kubuntu-desktop will install KDE instead of Gnome, corect?
[07:21] <rend> soundray: everything was working fine till i rebooted
[07:21] <ViRuSaKe> it sounds like this: Your $HOME/.dmrc file has incorrect permissions and is being ignored.This prevents the default session and language for being saved.File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions
[07:21] <jeekl> soundray: Back. A friend came over to get some stuff. Back ontrack now. dpkg is giving me dependecy errors when trying to uninstallm apt, should I force it?
[07:21] <_jason> kedaeus: it will install kde
[07:22] <kedaeus> _jason: Woot! :)
[07:22] <zaibiechu> if i want to write a c program, to comple it which package should i install
[07:22] <pder> can ubuntu be installed on a computer?
[07:22] <_jason> ViRuSaKe: might want to wait for someone with more experience to help you out.  I don't know what would be the best course of action for you
[07:22] <polpak> _jason, actually, I'm wrong. Everything in / except the users home directories is owned by root
[07:22] <kedaeus> pder: No it has to be installed in a toaster.
[07:22] <ViRuSaKe> ok _jason
[07:22] <soundray> rend, I don't have an answer for you atm. Please ask the channel again.
[07:22] <avu> zaibiechu: build-essential gives you the basics
[07:22] <ViRuSaKe> but don`t tell me i have to install it again
[07:23] <soundray> jeekl: you can safely force it, because you are going to reinstall it again in a minute.
[07:23] <avu> zaibiechu: depending on what you want to write it may be more or less than you need but it's a good start in every case
[07:23] <_jason> ViRuSaKe: well try chown'ing / back to root.  Then just chown /home/virus to virus
[07:23] <polpak> ViRuSaKe, I'd suggest using a LiveCD or boot into recovery mode, then chown -R root /
[07:23] <zaibiechu> no stdio.h
[07:23] <polpak> ViRuSaKe, then chown -R virus /home/virus
[07:23] <jeekl> soundray: right, issuing it now... Trying apt-get update...
[07:23] <jeekl> soundray: No.
[07:24] <avu> zaibiechu: after installing build-essential? sure?
[07:24] <soundray> jeekl: to early. apt-get update will only work once you've installed apt again...
[07:24] <soundray> *too
[07:24] <rend> soundray i just reran the installer and it worked fine.. maybe ill try to fix it again on next reboot (next month) ;)
[07:24] <jeekl> soundray: apt is installed: sudo dpkg --force-all --purge apt; sudo dpkg -i /home/jeff/apt_0.6.40.1ubuntu9_i386.deb
[07:25] <zaibiechu> avu, it sayes i don't have stdio.h
[07:25] <avu> zaibiechu: did you install build-essential?
[07:25] <marcow> hi
[07:25] <jmorris1> ok i fixed the res and installed the ati driver, the right one i assume was the regular file not the server one right?
[07:25] <zaibiechu> avu, no let me have a try,ths
[07:26] <jmorris1> system seems faster
[07:26] <soundray> jeekl: still 404 errors?
[07:26] <ViRuSaKe> ok i will try
[07:26] <ViRuSaKe> brb
[07:26] <jeekl> soundray: Yeah... Could it be something with my resolv or something like that?
[07:26] <marcow> i've got a soundcard named "Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller ". and when i play some music, in the brackground there are always some "klicks"... has anyone an idea what is wrong?
[07:27] <soundray> jeekl: let's think this through from the beginning.
[07:27] <jeekl> soundray: Sure.
[07:27] <elad`> I have to "ping www.google.com" and use the IP address I get there, I can't directly type "www.google.com" into firefox (and this server into x-chat) and be connected. Help?
[07:27] <jmorris1> soundray:  For ATI radeon 9200, the appropriate driver was the non server one right?
[07:27] <jmorris1> seems to work nicely :)
[07:28] <elad`> How do I correctly configure my DNS servers?
[07:28] <soundray> jeekl: 404 errors normally come from a web server. They could come from a proxy, too. So let's make sure your apt isn't still somehow set up for a proxy.
[07:28] <polpak> elad`, you don't have your DNS servers messed up somehow. Though I don't see how you'd be able to use ping either
[07:28] <tom44> salut  tous
[07:28] <soundray> jmorris1: I'm the wrong person to ask.
[07:28] <polpak> elad`, err you do have them messed up I mean

[07:30] <oskude> boogieman, nice
[07:30] <elad`> So, how do I correct my DNS servers? Where's the appropriate file?
[07:30] <jeekl> soundray: Yes, I blanked all the lines.

[07:30] <zaibiechu> polpak, sorry i copy those in ~/.vimrc but it does not work,can you help me

[07:31] <MacSlow> Can someone tell me how to get OpenOffice 2.0.2 to render itself using the native theme-style? Currently it looks like a plain win95 program under Dapper.
[07:32] <soundray> jeekl: did you set it to "Direct connection..."?
[07:32] <MacSlow> I remember a OO 2.x beta to nicely integrate with the default gtk+ look and feel.
[07:32] <jeekl> soundray: Yes, that's what I meant by unchecked it. Sorry for being fuzzy.
[07:32] <MacSlow> Sofar I've not found any option in the menus that hints me to get this native look-and-feel back.
[07:33] <oskude> MacSlow, dapper is in #ubuntu+1
[07:33] <jmorris1> how do i traceroute from ubuntu?
[07:33] <MacSlow> ups... oskude sorry
[07:33] <elad`> I'm trying to add them, but, well, it isn't working. Should I reboot?
[07:33] <soundray> jeekl: what does synaptic say when you hit Reload?
[07:33] <RageMax> MacSlow: might want to just download the RPMs from the OO website, that's what I'm running and it's fine
[07:33] <jmorris1> is it installed on default?
[07:33] <jeekl> soundray: /root/.synaptic/synaptic.conf shows:   useProxy "0";
[07:33] <zaibiechu> avu, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10692
[07:33] <Esco> hey how can i get an ip with dhcp??
[07:33] <toxic_> hi, can anyone help me with acpi. It seems that some events aren't being triggered, and yet there are event specified in /etc/acpi/events. For instance there is a close-lid script there that doesn't run when I close the lid.
[07:34] <zaibiechu> avu, could you help me
[07:34] <zaibiechu> to run c program just in vim
[07:34] <jeekl> soundray: Fail and 404. Like apt.
[07:35] <avu> zaibiechu: I don't really use vim for stuff like that. But the guys in #vim may be able to help you there
[07:35] <elad`> How do I reboot my internet connection thingies without rebooting the computer?
[07:35] <soundray> jeekl: for sanity, could you check that no proxies are set in /etc/wgetrc pls?
[07:35] <jmorris1> dang traceroute had to be added
[07:35] <Blippe> elad`, sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[07:35] <jmorris1> why isnt traceroute installed by default?
[07:35] <toxic_> jmorris1, try tracepath
[07:35] <mikebot> anyone know how to open the tutorial in emacs?
[07:35] <jmorris1> doesnt make sense :P its so basic
[07:35] <elad`> sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[07:35] <jmorris1> oh
[07:35] <elad`> em
[07:36] <elad`> sudo: /etc/init.d/network: command not found
[07:36] <jmorris1> tracepath is installed?
[07:36] <MacSlow> RageMax, you meant .debs I assume :)
[07:36] <sfar-ubu> what does this (error thingy) mean:
[07:36] <sfar-ubu> sfar@ububox:/$ mount | grep hda1
[07:36] <sfar-ubu> /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[07:36] <toxic_> jmorris1, in breezy it is
[07:36] <jmorris1> gotcha
[07:36] <jeekl> soundray: #use_proxy = on
[07:36] <jmorris1> i guess it was outdated
[07:36] <Top|Work> not sudo: just sudo /etc/init.d/network
[07:36] <jmorris1> i like traceroute :-)
[07:36] <Esco> i dont get an ip with dhcp can someone help me?
[07:36] <toxic_> :D
[07:36] <RageMax> MacSlow: no, I mean RPMs, that's what they're distributed as when you download the zip
[07:36] <toxic_> Esco, are you connected to a DHCP server ?
[07:37] <jmorris1> you were right
[07:37] <RageMax> you can use both RPM and apt on the same system
[07:37] <MacSlow> RageMax, well... just found a .deb at oo.org and will try that.
[07:37] <elad`> I changed that to "networking", but still, nothing's fixed, and I'm still connected here somehow.
[07:37] <jmorris1> might as well have traceroute :-)
[07:37] <toxic_> jmorris1, hehe ok
[07:37] <Esco> Toxic:no to a router
[07:37] <toxic_> Esco, the router must be set to hand out dhcp ip, have you configuered in the router interface ? Then you can just type dhclient3 to obtain a new ip.
[07:38] <elad`> Shit - when I did that "restart" thing, my /etc/resolv.conf was wiped clean. How do I keep that from happening?
[07:38] <soundray> jeekl: try wget on the commandline and give it one of the failed urls from your apt-get update run.
[07:38] <Blippe> elad`, stop using dhcp?
[07:38] <toxic_> Esco, of course, initally try and ping your router to make sure you can access it at all.
[07:38] <sfar-ubu> if i open the gnu menu from the panel, and then press printscreen.. the menu doesn't appear in the screenshot.. how can i make it visible? :)
[07:38] <sfar-ubu> gnu=gnome
[07:38] <soundray> jeekl: eg. http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy-backports/multiverse/source/Sources.gz
[07:38] <elad`> Blippe, walk me through it?
[07:39] <Esco> toxic:when i ping my router "Network is unreachable"
[07:39] <C-O-L-T> where to get w32coecs?
[07:39] <Blippe> ok, you don't stop using dhcp, because that is how you get your ip-address... (if you don't have static)
[07:39] <_jason> !w32codecs
[07:39] <ubotu> I heard w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
[07:39] <toxic_> hi, can anyone help me with acpi. It seems that some events aren't being triggered, and yet there are event specified in /etc/acpi/events. acpid is up and running ..
[07:39] <C-O-L-T> _jason: thansk
[07:39] <soundray> toxic_: the problem is with the ACPI implementation of your computer, then.
[07:39] <toxic_> Esco, probably you need to connect the cable correctly ..
[07:40] <elad`> Am I still connected?
[07:40] <elad`> That didn't go so well...
[07:40] <Esco> yes i have
[07:40] <Blippe> elad`, what you did wrong was probably the ":" after sudo!
[07:40] <toxic_> soundray, yeah I guess. It worked before I upgraded the breezy kernel though. The same events are there, the daemon is running, but the events doesn't trigger.
[07:40] <soundray> toxic_: I have this on one of mine -- tried fixing the DSDT, didn't help me, but apparently worked for other people.
[07:40] <elad`> Blippe, what?
[07:41] <elad`> Blippe, I changed from DHCP to static IP, and was disconnected for a while here.
[07:41] <soundray> toxic_: to what did you upgrade?
[07:41] <Blippe> but, if you have a dynamic dhcp, your computer probably negitiated a new ip address from you internet service provider...
[07:41] <elad`> Blippe, I changed it back, and voila, here I am again, without even reconnecting or rebooting.
[07:41] <saol> ccc
[07:41] <toxic_> soundray, Fixing DSTD ? I'm running 2.12-10 now
[07:41] <Esco> toxic:when i make static ip and ping he saiys "Destination Host Unreachable"
[07:41] <toxic_> soundray, 2.6.12.10, used 2.6.12.9 before :P
[07:41] <saol> qualcuno mi sa dire un tema per gnome per farlo assomigliare a windows sxp?
[07:41] <Blippe> elad`, so what are you trying to fix, (or are you trying to "break internet")
[07:42] <soundray> toxic_: DSDT. I followed some instructions I found on the web.
[07:42] <polpak> elad`, you should use System->Administration->Networking
[07:42] <jeekl> soundray: Hmm... Wget complains about wrong portnumbers on proxy http://localhost: But the wgetrc is set to not use proxies?
[07:42] <toxic_> Esco, you need to check your router, make sure that it doesn't have any active filter blocking LAN / WAN traffic. I'm sure the problem lies with your router setup.
[07:42] <polpak> elad`, to set your DNS servers etc
[07:42] <soundray> toxic_: does it work again when you go back to 2.6.12.9?
[07:42] <elad`> Blippe, thanks for trying to help, but WHY answer when you're not sure what the question is? You're just making me work harder that way.
[07:43] <soundray> jeekl: pls run 'env | grep localhost'
[07:43] <toxic_> soundray, I tried that earlier today, but I failed to boot using that kernel.
[07:43] <elad`> polpak, I did, but the thing is wiped clean in regular intervals. I remember, in that past, someone told me how to stop that from happening. Any ideas?
[07:43] <ArIeZ> Hello, I've jus downloaded Ubuntu via torrent burnt the iso to disc then tried to install on my 1 month old sony dvd rw, when i boot up the installation starts after it scans the cd rom it stops and says the its having trouble reading the disc
[07:43] <hartz> HELP!!! How can I get Move, Minimize, Resize and "Send to another workspace" on Enlightenment's "system" menus!!?
[07:43] <Blippe> you asked how you restarted networking, you do that by typing "sudo /etc/init.d/network restart" so i told you so...
[07:43] <polpak> elad`, disable dhcp (also in  System->Administration->Networking)
[07:43] <_jason> ArIeZ: burn the cd at like 2x or 4x
[07:43] <ArIeZ> i then changed back to my old dvd rom
[07:43] <deltron> ArIeZ: check the md5 on your download, it could be corrupt
[07:43] <ArIeZ> and it installed perfectly
[07:43] <soundray> toxic_: the kernel that worked fine before now doesn't boot? That's strange.
[07:43] <jeekl> soundray: Aha! I think we're getting somewhere here... http_proxy=http://localhost: HTTP_PROXY=http://localhost:
[07:44] <elad`> polpak, the only way to disable it is to move it to "static ip", and I don't know what to put in the fields in that case.
[07:44] <ArIeZ> i have cleaned the lens on the dvd rom
[07:44] <toxic_> soundray, yeah, it hung in the installation trying to initialize hotplug. I didn't give much consideration to it though since I'm not using it. But yeah, I find that strange as well.
[07:44] <ArIeZ> and am still having same problems
[07:44] <toxic_> soundray, Installation -> Bootup :P
[07:44] <Blippe> ArIeZ, lots of people have been complaining about that, try to burn it at a lower speed...
[07:44] <polpak> elad`, I would have assumed that you used a static IP since your DNS servers are statically assigned
[07:44] <polpak> elad`, hrm
[07:44] <ArIeZ> i burnt it as slow as possible
[07:44] <soundray> jeekl: to find out where that is set, you may have to 'find /etc -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l HTTP_PROXY'
[07:45] <elad`> polpak, could it be "10.0.0.138"?
[07:45] <polpak> elad`, could be
[07:45] <ArIeZ> its jus my new dvd rw drive wont read it
[07:45] <elad`> polpak, well, it doesn't work.
[07:45] <monzie> hi all
[07:45] <ArIeZ> old drive reads it fine
[07:45] <Blippe> ArIeZ, i had the same problem, and i just tried a couple of times and finally it worked... not the best solution :(
[07:46] <soundray> toxic_: perhaps you aren't loading all required acpi modules?
[07:46] <polpak> elad`, ok, well leave your IP assigned by dhcp then, but on the DNS tab you added your DNS servers?
[07:46] <ArIeZ> do u think there is something wrong with my dvd rw
[07:46] <monzie> is there anyone who's willing to help me set up a mailing list for Ebuntu?
[07:46] <jmorris1> Microsoft Reorganizes Windows Unit hah
[07:46] <jmorris1> im using dapper now and for the first time realize LINUX IS READY FOR PRIME
[07:47] <jeekl> soundray: That gives me /etc/alternatives/links, /etc/environment, /etc/lynx.cfg and /etc/elinks/elinks.conf
[07:47] <soundray> toxic: try 'lsmod | grep button'
[07:47] <shoun> hey, hoe can i apt-update
[07:47] <elad`> polpak, yes, and as I have said, whatever I put there disappears after a very short time. I tried doing the same by editing the file manually, and the same things happens.
[07:47] <jmorris1> dapper isnt final i realize, but its pretty damn close :)
[07:47] <Blippe> ArIeZ, i wouldn't know... but i would bet on something wrong with the cd...
[07:47] <soundray> jeekl: /etc/environment is the probably culprit. Edit it and comment out the proxy setting in there.
[07:47] <soundray> *probable
[07:47] <shoun> i put apt-get update
[07:47] <shoun> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[07:47] <ArIeZ> i done an md5 check on the file
[07:47] <toxic_> soundray, hmm, possibly.  Need to consult the manual for the module list and make sure.
[07:47] <polpak> elad`, in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf you can remove the request for domain-name-servers
[07:48] <ArIeZ> it was fine
[07:48] <ArIeZ> the disc is fine too
[07:48] <ArIeZ> so when i changed back to my old drive
[07:48] <soundray> toxic: try 'lsmod | grep button'?
[07:48] <ArIeZ> it worked
[07:48] <polpak> elad`, which will make it so you don't get updates to your DNS from DHCP
[07:48] <ArIeZ> so i guess its my new drive
[07:48] <Esco20> my dhcp doesnt work
[07:48] <Esco20> and its not my router
[07:49] <soundray> toxic_: if button isn't loaded, run modprobe button and retry the lid thing.
[07:49] <elad`> polpak, that's exactly what I was looking for, I remember someone telling me to do that once, and it working. Now, what exactly do I change in that file?
[07:49] <Goshawk> hi, how does the live cd start without X support (i need command line)?
[07:49] <polpak> elad`, remove the part that says "domain-name-servers,"
[07:50] <toxic_> soundray, I am loading acpid and acpi-support during startup.  Modprobe button ? What specifically do you mean by "button" ?
[07:50] <elad`> polpak, under "request"? Shouldn't I remove anything else?
[07:50] <polpak> elad`, I don't think so
[07:50] <elad`> OK, answer me only when I say I'm back, otherwise, though I will still appear connected, I will not get it.
[07:50] <Esco20> i have a router with dhcp and i got no ip!what is it
[07:50] <toxic_> soundray, I did modprobe button, but nothing of interest happened, and lid event was triggered either.
[07:50] <Top|Work> Is there a minimal iso for flight 5 of dapper?
[07:51] <soundray> Goshawk: use 2 as a kernel option, or switch to console with Ctrl-Alt-F1
[07:51] <toxic_> soundray, ok, button as in ACPI Button Driver, got it. Didn't work though.
[07:51] <jeekl> soundray: Very strange. The file says that those lines has been added by anon proxy. I did tinker a bit with anon proxy a couple of weeks ago but uninstalled it. And why should it come back to haunt me now, of all times?
[07:51] <ArIeZ> sorry
[07:51] <jeekl> soundray: Do I need to reload/restart anything? apt still gives me 404s.
[07:52] <Blippe> Top|Work, a minimal cd as in?
[07:52] <Top|Work> a CD just for a net-install
[07:52] <soundray> jeekl: you could try to unset the variable everywhere, or reboot (easiest).
[07:52] <Top|Work> something small
[07:52] <Goshawk> soundray: the Xscreen is screwed up and pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 does not switch the terminal, i'll use the command line way thanks
[07:52] <Blippe> Top|Work, yes... wait, i'll look up the address!
[07:53] <Esco20> i have a router with dhcp and i got no ip!what is it
[07:53] <jeekl> soundray: Right, I hate editing env-variables so I guess I'll try rebooting. Be back in a few ;-)
[07:53] <elad`> I'm back. We aren't quite there yet.  I removed that entry from dhclient.conf, but resolv.conf is still being overwritten by something.
[07:53] <Top|Work> thx Blippe. I can't seem to find one
[07:53] <Hoxzer> is it possible to add HDD usage, CPU tempature to the ubuntu (gnome) desktop?
[07:53] <toxic_> Esco20, do you have another computer / another cable, or are you at all connected to the internet via the router ?
[07:53] <oskude> Esco, what is your NIC, and is it suppoerted under linux ?
[07:54] <LinuxJones> Hoxzer: you can install gdesklets
[07:54] <soundray> toxic_: do a ls /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-amd64-k8/kernel/drivers/acpi/ and see if any of those modules may be needed for the operation you require.
[07:54] <fly-away> hiall
[07:54] <toxic_> Esco20, find the MAC address of the router, probably on a sticker on it's back. Then try to arp the adress and see if you can find any ip matching it.
[07:54] <Esco20> oskude mit NIC ist supported
[07:54] <pepi69> hola
[07:54] <Hoxzer> LinuxJones: I think I already have them
[07:54] <Esco20> toxic:i will do it
[07:55] <LinuxJones> Hoxzer: did you install the gdesklets-data package as well ?
[07:55] <Blippe> Top|Work, if i remember correcly it should be the iso on: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper/main/daily-installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[07:55] <elad`> OK, it's working now. Hopefully it won't be overwritten again in a short while.
[07:55] <soundray> toxic_: sorry: replace your kernel version (obviously).
[07:55] <oskude> Esco, my /etc/network/interfaces has as last line "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[07:55] <Top|Work> thx Blippe, I'll check it out
[07:55] <Hoxzer> Linux: probably not
[07:55] <fly-away> if i will be update my breezy to dapper how it describe in http://www.macewan.org/2006/02/23/upgrading-breezy-to-dapper/
[07:56] <fly-away> can it make any problem for me?
[07:56] <Hoxzer> installing it now
[07:56] <polpak> fly-away, well dapper's not stable yet...
[07:56] <toxic_> soundray, Yeah I figuered that. Yeah, I'll most likely need a few of those mods. I'll modprobe some of the essential ones and see what happends.
[07:56] <Top|Work> Blippe, Found it, thx
[07:56] <fiendskull9> !delete
[07:56] <ubotu> fiendskull9: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:56] <fiendskull9> !del
[07:56] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fiendskull9
[07:56] <soundray> toxic_: you know about adding them to /etc/modules ?
[07:56] <fly-away> polpak, hooo, its not feary))
[07:56] <fiendskull9> how do i delete a dir in the terminal
[07:56] <LinuxJones> Hoxzer: there are about 50 desklets in that package like weather, clocks, hard disk /cps monitors etc
[07:56] <toxic_> soundray, sure
[07:56] <oskude> fly-away, yes it could (change is low, but its still very possible to go "wrong")
[07:57] <elad`> Once inside vim, editing a file requiring sudo permissions without having them, can I acquire them without exiting the program and reentering with sudo, thus losing all my changes and having to repeat them?
[07:57] <_jason> fiendskull9: rmdir if it is empty, rm -r if not
[07:57] <Esco20> oskude:my /etc/network/interfaces is iface eth0 inet dhcp is iface eth1 inet auto auto eth0 auto eth1
[07:57] <fly-away> ok, thx all
[07:57] <polpak> elad`, no
[07:57] <polpak> elad`, but
[07:57] <oskude> Esco, so you got 2 NICs ?
[07:57] <conn> nobody's answering in the other channel, has anyone gotten the flash plugin installed for firefox under dapper? Automatic install fails, gplflash crashes the browser, and flashplugin-nonfree doesn't install anything.. anyone?
[07:57] <polpak> elad`, you can save your changes to a different file
[07:58] <Esco20> oskude:lan and Wlan
[07:58] <polpak> elad`, then copy over the old one with the new one using sudo
[07:58] <katodas> Hi, when i install ubuntu ican't connect to the internet, the problem is the provider uses an adsl-pppoe connection, which uses a service tag, i can't find anything in the docs about service tags :-/ pppoeconf also doesn't seem to help on this.
[07:58] <soundray> conn: amd64?
[07:58] <conn> soundray, nop, plain x86
[07:59] <cwoods> I need help, I installed webmin with alien and now when I run apt-get I am getting the following error: "E: The package webmin needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it."
[07:59] <soundray> conn: does flashplugin-nonfree say anything about its failure mode?
[07:59] <soundray> conn: I mean the install
[07:59] <oskude> Esco, i cant remember what to do with wlan (only did it once)...
[08:00] <conn> soundray, there was no error, let me reinstall and verify
[08:00] <polpak> !webmin
[08:00] <ubotu> See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebminWithoutARootAccount for webmin instructions for Ubuntu. Webmin runs on https://localhost:10000
[08:00] <cwoods> I have tried to run 'apt-get update'
[08:00] <elad`> polpak, thanks!
[08:00] <Esco20> oskude:there is a wlan and a lan on one board
[08:00] <polpak> cwoods, you don't need to use alien.. There's a deb package
[08:00] <katodas> anyone?
[08:00] <elad`> Does anyone here recommend I _not_ use Automatix?
[08:00] <elad`> *don't*
[08:01] <cwoods> polpak: I know that now and I am trying to get rid of the rpm
[08:01] <Hoxzer> daaamn
[08:01] <soundray> katodas, what kind of modem hardware?
[08:01] <Hoxzer> How do I enable 1200 x 800
[08:01] <oskude> Esco, and "ifconfig" doesnt show any ip's ?
[08:01] <Hoxzer> resolution?
[08:02] <Esco20> oskude:no there is no ip
[08:02] <katodas> someone please have a look at my problem :[
[08:02] <soundray> katodas, what kind of modem hardware?
[08:02] <EvilGuru> can someone tell me a good smtp server that is easy to set up
[08:02] <katodas> uh?
[08:02] <conn> soundray, there's no error from apt-get/dpkg, it installs fine, but no plugin is installed (or seen by firefox).. I think it's a bad package from hoary
[08:03] <Hoxzer> honestly
[08:03] <katodas> it's a realtek card, it's setuped on rl0 i believe.
[08:03] <Hoxzer> Is there any howto for
[08:03] <Hoxzer> it
[08:03] <Hoxzer> I remeber when ubuntu asked for it on install
[08:03] <soundray> katodas, a realtek ADSL PCI modem?
[08:03] <katodas> yes.
[08:04] <oskude> Esco20, well, if you have "iface eth0 inet dhcp" in your config and restarting with "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" wont help, i dont know further either... maybe read some logs...
[08:04] <toxic_> soundray, I modprobed modules likely needed for acpi. Neither the hotkeys nor the closing-lid triggered an event. They've been added in /etc/modules, but as modprobed then I can't see the need to reboot the system, or do I ?
[08:04] <IamEthos> okay
[08:04] <oskude> Esco20, assuming "eth0" is your lan NIC
[08:04] <IamEthos> so I used GParted to format a hard drive as Fat32
[08:04] <IamEthos> but Ubuntu still wants to mount it as ext3
[08:04] <IamEthos> how do I fix that?
[08:04] <soundray> conn: I take it you've restarted firefox and checked 'about:plugins'?
[08:04] <akin_to> help
[08:05] <elad`> Someone send me some .wav please, I think there's something wrong with my audio card.
[08:05] <conn> soundray, exactly
[08:05] <oskude> IamEthos, i think (never used) gparted doesnt format...
[08:05] <crimsun> elad`: use /usr/share/sounds/
[08:05] <akin_to> i use smb://ip_address/sharedfolder but i cant browse the shared folder
[08:05] <IamEthos> okay
[08:06] <IamEthos> so I have this unformatted, fat32 partition
[08:06] <IamEthos> how do I format it?
[08:06] <jeekl> soundray: Know what? That solved it. I take back everything I said about not being a total newb. I thanky you from the bottom of my heart. I win't forget it. Give me a shout if you're ever coming to Sweden and I'll buy you a round of beer.
[08:06] <katodas> soundray: anything you could share on this?
[08:06] <elad`> Totem threw unknown errors, then crashed. Help? I've got a plain old SoundBlaster Live! 5.1.
[08:06] <oskude> IamEthos, if you want format fat32 in a partition do "mkfs.vfat /path/to/your/partition"
[08:06] <Blippe> IamEthos, in gnome : system - administration - disks
[08:07] <IamEthos> Blippe: I tried that
[08:07] <Blippe> IamEthos, what happens?
[08:07] <soundray> Actually, jeekl... can I pm you?
[08:07] <jeekl> Sure
[08:07] <IamEthos> however it's still recognizing the partition as ext 3
[08:08] <soundray> katodas, has anyone ever got that kind of card to work under linux?
[08:08] <Mr_Morden> what source do I need to add for the msttcorefonts package?
[08:08] <EvilGuru> anyone help me set up an smtp server on my ubnutu pc
[08:08] <IamEthos> oh
[08:08] <IamEthos> I think I fixed it
[08:08] <katodas> soundray: i do not know. :-/
[08:08] <IamEthos> nope
[08:08] <IamEthos> I didn't
[08:09] <elad`> Fresh installation of Ubuntu, no sound. Help?
[08:09] <soundray> katodas, stfw then ;)
[08:09] <IamEthos> I formatted it as vFAT with that (the only FAT option)
[08:09] <toxic_> elad`, what's your soundcard ?
[08:09] <IamEthos> and now it says inaccessible
[08:09] <elad`> It used to have sound ootb on this machine, with the same version of Ubuntu, I think.
[08:09] <elad`> toxic_,  SoundBlaster Live! 5.1.
[08:09] <katodas> eh.
[08:09] <katodas> that was rude.
[08:09] <toxic_> elad`, Soundblaster, I think that should work well with the alsa drivers
[08:09] <crimsun> elad`: pastebin output from the following: cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer -c0
[08:10] <jbritz22> hey all
[08:10] <Timeline> Good afternoon everyone.
[08:10] <oskude> IamEthos, post the result of "sudo fdisk -l" to pastebin
[08:10] <soundray> katodas, rude is something else.
[08:11] <elad`> http://pastebin.com/618467
[08:11] <jbritz22> how do I make it so if I have a transparent terminal in fluxbox, everytime it loads up, so will that terminal, with the same settings, and how do I make it so loads up the same background each time?
[08:11] <sfar-ubu> !mp3
[08:11] <ubotu> I heard mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:11] <eae> Anyone have the link with instructions to install firefix 1,5?
[08:12] <eae> *firefox 1.5
[08:12] <grout58> what directory does ubuntu keep all the drives in again
[08:12] <oskude> !firefox
[08:12] <oskude> !firefox1.5
[08:12] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion

[08:13] <Blippe> grout58, /dev/
[08:13] <oskude> grout58, do you mean the device nodes in /dev ?
[08:13] <IamEthos> I'm trying to format sda2
[08:13] <Blippe> they start with hd..
[08:14] <oskude> IamEthos, i think you have to make it fat32 as partition type first, then format with mkfs.vfat
[08:14] <crimsun> elad`: your onboard sound is the primary (default) card
[08:14] <trace> Hello all
[08:14] <toxic_> elad`, I'd: wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc4a.tar.bz2   And then install the new drivers. That is of course if you can't get it running with your current drivers.
[08:14] <elad`> crimsun, oh, right, damn it, the BIOS was reset.
[08:14] <crimsun> elad`: change it using System> Preferences> Sound> Set default sound card
[08:14] <grout58> how can i find the name of a unmounted hard drive?
[08:15] <IamEthos> oskude: so first make fat32, then mkfs.vfat?
[08:15] <IamEthos> make fat32 in gparted?
[08:15] <Timeline> How do I set up SSH/SFTP on a ubuntu server so I can transfer files from a windows machine?
[08:15] <oskude> IamEthos, fat32 = vfat
[08:15] <sfar-ubu> Hmm, there's no sound when im playing mp3's.. the sound is working (when i play videos etc).. and i have gstreamer0.8-mad installed
[08:15] <elad`> crimsun, toxic_, thanks!
[08:15] <crimsun> toxic_: completely irrelevant, but thanks.
[08:15] <IamEthos> ah
[08:15] <oskude> IamEthos, yes make fat32 in partition program
[08:15] <blackhood> HARE BROW
[08:15] <grout58> how can i find the name of a unmounted hard drive?
[08:16] <elad`> Man, that was silly.
[08:16] <oskude> grout58, maybe "sudo fdisk -l"
[08:16] <elad`> Another thing - my clock is all wrong.
[08:16] <grout58> thanks
[08:17] <elad`> Man, my resolv.conf was just reset back to contain only "nameserver 10.0.0.138
[08:17] <elad`> ". I didn't do anything to provoke this!
[08:17] <kung> hi
[08:17] <IamEthos> oskude: the path being /dev/sda2 or /media/sda2?
[08:17] <toxic_> crimsun, hehe np :P By the way, you wouldn't have a clue why I can't get acpi to trigger on events (I've modprobed most of the modules in .../kernel/drivers). Events worked fresh from the box, but then I had a kernelupdate to 2.6.12.10 and it seemed that it stopped working somewhere along that time.
[08:18] <oskude> IamEthos, /dev/xxxxx is the "physical" location of the device and /media/xxxx is the path where it is/willbe mounted
[08:19] <oskude> IamEthos, btw, when you partition or format the partition must NOT be mounted
[08:19] <elad`> How do I permanently stop /etc/resolv.conf from being overwritten?
[08:20] <IamEthos> I bet partition magic could do all of this much more easily
[08:20] <IamEthos> I may just have to boot to windows and do that
[08:20] <oskude> dunno, never used
[08:20] <kung> I updated to ubuntu dapper (from breezy) now I have about 3 versions of installed, which one do I really need?
[08:20] <crimsun> toxic_: on Breezy? Hmm, no
[08:20] <kung> 3 versions of gcc
[08:20] <IamEthos> is x-chat the best irc clinet for ubuntu?
[08:20] <Seveas> kung, you only need the latest 4.x version
[08:21] <toxic_> crimsun, ok thx anyway
[08:21] <grout58> i just used the command sudo mount /dev/hdd1 /home/grout now i cant get into my home dir, says i dont have permission
[08:21] <Seveas> IamEthos, that depends ov your taste 
[08:21] <kung> Seveas thx
[08:21] <dejx> chmod all-w /etc/resolv.conf
[08:21] <oskude> IamEthos, "best" is relative...
[08:21] <grout58> and i cant get into terminal now cause i dont have permission
[08:21] <IamEthos> seveas: wow, using katakana as a smiley face....
[08:21] <elad`> dejx, thanks, I'll try that. We won't know if it works for another hour, though.
[08:22] <IamEthos> that's true
[08:22] <grout58> now i cant open anything
[08:22] <dejx> elad`, or chmod 444 /etc/resolv.conf
[08:22] <rim> Where can I find a screensaver that locks while displaying the desktop applications?
[08:22] <IamEthos> okay, what are my other options?
[08:22] <IamEthos> that should be easier to answer
[08:22] <toxic_> I need some ACPI assistance. I can't get it to trigger events (buttons, closeing lid etc). It used to work on my last kernel, but doesn't now. acpid daemon running ...
[08:22] <IamEthos> and will x-chat let me choose to connect a server automatically on startup?
[08:22] <grout58> someone help
[08:23] <IamEthos> and run commands on connect to a network?
[08:23] <oskude> IamEthos, yes, but dunno about commands on connect
[08:23] <IamEthos> (so that I can identify to nickserv right off the bat
[08:23] <elad`> dejx, it seems it already was on 444 to begin with.,
[08:23] <Blippe> what should i do if ubuntu can't find the local filesystems?
[08:23] <C-O-L-T> how to select firefox as default browser cause I have konqueror too
[08:23] <oskude> grout58, reboot (but theres allso a command to remount according to fstab, but i forgot)
[08:24] <grout58> oskude why did it do that?
[08:24] <dejx> dejx@notebook:~/Desktop/wlscan-0.1$ ls -la /etc/resolv.conf
[08:24] <dejx> -rw-r--r--  1 root root 52 2006-03-23 15:10 /etc/resolv.conf
[08:24] <oskude> IamEthos, good idea, i would need that too :)
[08:24] <oskude> grout58, you told it to do so...
[08:24] <polpak> elad`, can you check your modem settings and make sure that the DNS servers are set right? The only other thing I can suggest is to comment out the function calls in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-script.. (put a # in front of line 201 and 260)
[08:24] <mackyman> culd someone help me config my apache server? Just want it to be public. I have tried too google but I find nothing
[08:24] <sfar-ubu> I cant hear no sound when playing MP3's (only then).. gstreamer0.8-mad installed.. What to do??
[08:24] <grout58> oskude, i told it to mount the drive in /home/grout  how did i do it?
[08:25] <_jason> sfar-ubu: what player?
[08:25] <oskude> grout58, ???, you just posted what you did...
[08:25] <elad`> polpak, what exactly should I comment out there?
[08:25] <elad`> oh, 201-260
[08:25] <polpak> elad`, just those 2
[08:25] <grout58> ok but why did it lock me out?
[08:25] <toxic_> I need some ACPI assistance. I can't get it to trigger events (buttons, closeing lid etc). It used to work on my last kernel, but doesn't now. acpid daemon running ... /etc/init.d/acpid restart -> /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy.
[08:26] <sfar-ubu> _jason: xmms and beep media player
[08:26] <sfar-ubu> just noticed that it works in mplayer tho :)
[08:26] <polpak> elad`, they should just say make_resolv_conf with nothing else on the line right now
[08:26] <oskude> grout58, you mounted it with sudo, so it took the rights of root user (or something like that)
[08:26] <elad`> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[08:26] <elad`>   kate: Depends: kdelibs4c2 (>= 4:3.4.3) but it is not going to be installed
[08:26] <elad`>         Depends: libqt3-mt (>= 3:3.3.4) but it is not installable
[08:26] <elad`> E: Broken packages
[08:26] <_jason> sfar-ubu: do you use esd as the sound output?
[08:26] <grout58> oooh
[08:27] <eae> How I can make this not open a new window everytime I open a folder?
[08:27] <junming> hello i have a locale problem
[08:27] <polpak> elad`, so if you put a # sign in front it won't call that function
[08:27] <grout58> so how can i mount a drive like that?
[08:27] <sfar-ubu> _jason: i dont know, where do i look that  up?
[08:27] <junming> how do i modify the locales forever?
[08:27] <_jason> sfar-ubu: system  > preferences > multimedia systems selector
[08:27] <junming> "sudo dprk-reconfigure locales" doesn't work
[08:28] <oskude> grout58, add it in /etc/fstab
[08:28] <Blippe> eae, you open nautilus, choose edit, preferences, go to the second tab (Behavior) and chechk "always in open browser"
[08:28] <sfar-ubu> _jason:  sink:esd, source:oss
[08:28] <junming> does anyone know?
[08:28] <elad`> Crap, that chmod 444 thing didn't work, and now it's just a nuisance. What should I chmod it back to? What is it by default?
[08:29] <oskude> grout58, but i dont know what parameters it should have...
[08:29] <_jason> sfar-ubu: go to preferences in xmms and beep and select esd as the audio output
[08:29] <Blippe> elad`, 0711
[08:29] <grout58> what line in fstab should i add for /dev/hdd1
[08:30] <kingspawn> any of you guys have any idea what could be wrong when ubuntu suddenly resolves hosts extremely slowly? my debian machine still works like a charm
[08:30] <oskude> grout58, as it is your home directory, i dunno (otherwise i would make it look like the floppy line)
[08:30] <polpak> elad`, 644
[08:30] <sfar-ubu> _jason:  thanks.. that did the trick:D
[08:30] <eae> What's the closest thing to Notepad?
[08:30] <crimsun> gedit?
[08:30] <eae> That didn't work
[08:30] <eae> Anything else?
[08:30] <polpak> elad`, or you can do the new method chmod u=rw,go=r
[08:30] <oskude> junming, its "dpkg"
[08:30] <crimsun> eae: what are you trying to do?
[08:31] <polpak> eae, define "didn't work"
[08:31] <junming> oskude, typo, i typed dpkg
[08:31] <eae> open a non text file as text
[08:31] <sambagirl> anyone speaking italian?
[08:31] <elad`> Which is it? 0711 or 644?
[08:31] <polpak> eae, ...... what kind of non-text file
[08:31] <oskude> junming, you know "doesnt work" doesnw really help... any error messages ?
[08:31] <polpak> elad`, 644 or u=rw,go=r
[08:31] <crimsun> sambagirl: #ubuntu-it?
[08:31] <elad`> Also: kate:
[08:31] <elad`>  Depends: kdelibs4c2 but it is not going to be installed
[08:31] <elad`>  Depends: libqt3-mt (>=3:3.3.4) but it is not installable - What and why?
[08:32] <junming> oskude, no error messages, it says everything works fine, but the changes just don't remain
[08:32] <elad`> (I need kate to find lines 201 and 260)
[08:32] <eggzeck> is it really bad to install ubuntu without a swap partition?
[08:32] <crimsun> elad`: do you not have the ubuntu main repo enabled?
[08:32] <crimsun> eggzeck: no
[08:32] <elad`> crimsun, I'm not sure.
[08:32] <polpak> elad`, why do you need kate?
[08:32] <crimsun> elad`: pastebin: apt-cache policy kate
[08:32] <elad`> crimsun, it's a fresh installation of Ubuntu, so I guess I do.
[08:33] <polpak> elad`, use either nano or vi, works fine
[08:33] <eggzeck> crimsun: ty
[08:33] <Esco> how can i change ipv6 in ipv4?
[08:33] <Blippe> eae, you have to start a new nautilus for it to take effect
[08:33] <elad`> http://pastebin.com/618522
[08:33] <toxic_> I need some ACPI assistance. I can't get it to trigger events (buttons, closeing lid etc). It used to work on my last kernel, but doesn't now. acpid daemon running ... /etc/init.d/acpid restart -> /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy.
[08:34] <elad`> polpak, how do I find a line by its number in vi?
[08:34] <polpak> elad`, in command mode, type 201G
[08:34] <kingspawn> the sollution to my problem was that i am a dunce.
[08:34] <kingspawn> i am now wearing the dunce hat.
[08:34] <polpak> elad`, or you can type :set nu to see the line numbers
[08:34] <eggzeck> elad`: /x where x is the number
[08:35] <Esco> how can i change ipv6 in ipv4?
[08:35] <elad`> polpak, Are you sure it's 201 and 260 I need to comment out? And, how do I comment out in that kind of file? ";"?
[08:35] <oskari> #ubuntu-fi
[08:36] <polpak> elad`, use a # sign to comment a shell script
[08:36] <polpak> elad`, they should just say make_resolv_conf with nothing else on the line right now
[08:36] <polpak> elad`, so if you put a # sign in front it won't call that function
[08:36] <Esco> how can i change ipv6 in ipv4?
[08:36] <Blippe> polpak, aint that problem elad haves with installing kate typical after a automatix install of skype?
[08:36] <elad`> OK, commented out. /me crosses its fingers.
[08:37] <polpak> Blippe, could be.. I don't do automatix
[08:37] <makol> holas
[08:37] <cyber> holas
[08:37] <cwoods> why is it when I open Synaptic Package Manager the only thing the left window is "ALL"?
[08:37] <elad`> So, crimsun, any idea why I can't install Kate?

[08:46] <oskude> Esco, what is your routers ip and what is your machines ip ? is the cable 100% ok ?
[08:46] <Esco> i have static ip but i cant ping my router!i dont now
[08:46] <elad`> crimsun, could you help me with Kate please?
[08:46] <Esco> router 192.168.0.1 my 192.168.0.110
[08:47] <funtable> Esco: type #sudo mii-tool
[08:47] <crimsun> elad`: what's the issue?
[08:47] <northie> How would I disable my microphone?
[08:47] <oskude> Esco, do you get your machines ip with "ifconfig" ?
[08:47] <funtable> and look if your interface is up
[08:47] <elad`> crimsun, it won't install. I pasted you the thing you needed. Here it goes again:
[08:47] <elad`> http://pastebin.com/618522
[08:47] <rambo3> esco is mask and gatwayset correct ?
[08:47] <gabbah> how do i restart X?
[08:48] <Esco> funtable:eth0 failed:bad adress
[08:48] <Esco> oskude:no
[08:48] <Esco> rambo3:yes i think so
[08:48] <oskude> gabbah, ctrl+alt+backspace or "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[08:48] <rambo3> sudo route add default gw 192.168.0.1  and so on?
[08:48] <funtable> Esco: must apper something like : eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok
[08:49] <crimsun> elad`: you don't have the 'main' repo enabled in /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:49] <oskude> Esco, if "ifconfig" doesnt show an ip address for your device, then its not working yet...
[08:50] <elad`> How did I miss that one? I didn't uncomment it. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Thanks.
[08:51] <Esco> ifconfig there is an ip 192.168.0.102 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.0.1
[08:51] <northie> How would I disable my microphone?
[08:51] <estudiante> maria
[08:51] <Esco> but it doesnt work cable is ok under windows it works
[08:51] <soop> anyone around?
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> ask.
[08:52] <elad`> How do I fix my clock?
[08:52] <soop> anyone here running multiple broswers?
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> you could go with ntpdate
[08:52] <elad`> soop, not me. Why?
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> or you could use date
[08:52] <soop> i need someone to confirm something ... go to ask.com ask it something in IE then ask it something in firefox
[08:52] <soop> i get different results
[08:52] <elad`> ntpdate, thanks.
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> and set the clock.
[08:53] <oskude> Esco, could help if you post your "cat /etc/network/interfaces" file and messages that "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" produces... (and maybe some logs that i dont know atm)
[08:53] <oskude> Esco, and posting mean in pastebin!
[08:53] <Esco> oskude: ok wait i will do it
[08:54] <patrick522> how do i umount a dvd which i inserted
[08:54] <oskude> soop, google.X produces different results too, i assume for money...
[08:54] <_jason> patrick522: gnome should mount it automatically
[08:54] <Matic`Makovec> patrick522,  umount /dev/drive ?
[08:54] <soop> yah but this is the same site, only wiuth different browsers
[08:55] <_jason> patrick522: oh didn't see ``umount'', sorry :)
[08:55] <Matic`Makovec> for drive you insert the name of drive (it can be cdrom, hda, ..)
[08:55] <oskude> patrick522, or right click and "eject"
[08:55] <xerxez> i just recompiled the kernel and i don't get a boot screen, i mean when it's loading everything..
[08:55] <xerxez> (ubuntu 5.10)
[08:55] <makol> using namespace std; what mean that's,,,,,,,,,i put this line and the compilation works!!
[08:55] <Matic`Makovec> oskude, that works only if he has permissions
[08:55] <elad`> I need a fresh sources.list
[08:55] <oskude> patrick522, or i think typing just "eject" in terminal should do it too...
[08:55] <_jason> makol: that's c++
[08:55] <Matic`Makovec> elad`, go to ubuntu homepage
[08:55] <patrick522> has any body installed unreal tournament 2004 on linux
[08:56] <Matic`Makovec> you can "make" a sources.list there
[08:56] <Matic`Makovec> with specifying where are you from and stuff..
[08:56] <fiendskull9> hello
[08:56] <fiendskull9> i know you guys dont like illegal stuff
[08:56] <Rawplayer> ?
[08:56] <Matic`Makovec> and we don't help with it
[08:56] <alecs> hi! can you tell me ? ubuntu has .deb or .rpm packages?
[08:56] <fiendskull9> but if anyone wants a ebook of the linux bible 2005 edition, let me know.
[08:56] <fiendskull9> alecs, it uses deb
[08:56] <xerxez> any ideas?? i mean it works great it just won't show the booting sequence..
[08:57] <patrick522> i want one
[08:57] <Matic`Makovec> alecs, .deb ofcourse since it's debian based
[08:57] <soop> fiendskull9: wow i bet it tells me how to install red hat fc4 or something right?
[08:57] <ftg2> where do i add new session types for xdm/gdm/kdm? supposing i wanted to make additional kde installations available
[08:57] <fiendskull9> soop, only fc3, as 4 came out early 06
[08:57] <fiendskull9> soop, its only gonna be hosted for tonight
[08:57] <oskude> xerxez, you mean you dont get grub ?
[08:58] <patrick522> can i have a copy of the ebook
[08:58] <Esco> oksude:http://pastebin.com/618581
[08:58] <xerxez> yeah, after grub.. when the ubuntu logo is suppose to show and everything is suppose to load.. i mean it does, i just can't see it.. i can see some white _ blinking on the bottom line some time though
[08:59] <oskude> Esco, hmm
[08:59] <patrick522> how do i view .pdf format
[08:59] <fiendskull9> patrick522 & soop, did you get my pm's?
[08:59] <patrick522> yep
[08:59] <fiendskull9> !pdf
[08:59] <ubotu> fiendskull9: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:59] <_jason> patrick522: evince or xpdf
[09:00] <fiendskull9> patrick522, are u in ubuntu?
[09:00] <soop> fiendskull9: im not a fan of linux bibles etc, they only get you to post install and maybe a small apache config and thats it usually
[09:00] <patrick522> im using ubuntu
[09:00] <soop> and they call it linux bible when it uses all of redhats tools or something for admin
[09:00] <soop> pfft
[09:00] <rambo3> hasent hotplug been removed with new kernels?

[09:01] <fiendskull9> soop, its worth a gander
[09:01] <Esco> oskude:what do you mean?
[09:01] <skypa> greetings
[09:01] <oskude> Esco, is eth0 the lan interface ?
[09:01] <Esco> yes
[09:01] <patrick522> yep
[09:02] <rambo3> esco wasnt it static interface not dhcp that you where talking about
[09:02] <skypa> any suggestions where to start reading? :)
[09:02] <_jason> skypa: about what?
[09:02] <Esco> rambo:it is dhcp, but with static it doesnt work too
[09:02] <rambo3> ok
[09:03] <oskude> Esco, try commenting all lines after "iface eth0 inet dhcp" and do "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" and look if "ifconfig" shows any ip for your device
[09:03] <tonyyarusso> skypa: That link *might* help, not sure if it's exactly what you need.
[09:03] <RDKING> hey everyone.  I need some help creating a launcher to run a wine command on a hidden directory.  How do I code the command to issue a terminal command
[09:03] <tonyyarusso> skypa: Whoa, wait, without hard drive or without CD-ROM drive?
[09:03] <skypa> w/o hd :)
[09:03] <skypa> so I'd like to tell my BIOS to boot a basesystem from another machine in the network
[09:03] <tonyyarusso> skypa: Hmm, then it might not be as useful.  Still worth a look maybe, dunno.
[09:04] <_michael_> Is it possible to be running 3 display managers on the same computer?
[09:04] <Esco> oskude:no there is only lo 127.0.0.1
[09:04] <_michael_> 2*
[09:04] <skypa> well, there is a ready to go damn small linux image which would do the netboot job, but I'd like to use ubuntu
[09:05] <oskude> Esco, then try with static ip
[09:05] <elad`> So, how do I fix ntpdate?
[09:05] <Esco> oskude:static ip doesnt work,too
[09:05] <Matic`Makovec> fix?
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> well
[09:06] <fraka> hi all
[09:06] <elad`> 24 Mar 00:04:46 ntpdate[18770] : no servers can be used, exiting
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> elad`, search for ntp servers and do ntpdate ntp.server.com
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> elad`, where are you from ?
[09:06] <grout58> whenever i mount my second drive i lose permission to everything becuase i have to sue sudo, where can i mount the drive ?
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> oh israel
[09:06] <eggzeck> haha, ubuntu will NOT install on my G4 on ext3 journaling type partition
[09:06] <fraka> wen i install new them it says already installed but not anyone
[09:06] <funtable> Esco, try to make easyer mode, em X-windows, Go do ( System / Administration / Networking )
[09:06] <Matic`Makovec> well elad` , try google with israel ntp servers
[09:06] <eggzeck> I had to use ext2 without a swap patition
[09:07] <elad`> Matic`Makovec, thanks.
[09:07] <funtable> Esco, and look if your interface is enable, and configure your IP there
[09:07] <nickrud> elad`, when you find one, add it to /etc/default/ntpdate
[09:07] <tonyyarusso> elad`: ntp.ubuntulinux.org, isn't it?
[09:07] <oskude> Esco, btw "man interfaces" shows info about that file... (check your syntax)
[09:08] <Esco> ok
[09:08] <oskude> Esco, or as funtable suggested, try the GUI
[09:08] <fraka> wen i install new them it says already installed but not anyone
[09:08] <IamEthos> sudo apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird <- that would install a version of thunderbird that came with Ubuntu, right?
[09:08] <IamEthos> or am I crazy?
[09:08] <funtable> in the GUI you cant make a wrong config ;)
[09:08] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Correct.
[09:09] <wamty> anyone know how to install flash player for mozilla in ubuntu dapper? flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work and flashplayer-mozilla doesn't exist :|
[09:09] <elad`> ntp.ubuntulinux.org is already in /etc/default/ntpdate

[09:09] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: 1.5 will be in Dapper, otherwise:
[09:09] <tonyyarusso> !thunderbird1.5
[09:09] <ubotu> it has been said that thunderbird1.5 is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThunderbirdNewVersion
[09:09] <wamty> anyone know how to install flash player for mozilla in ubuntu dapper? flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work and flashplayer-mozilla doesn't exist :|
[09:10] <_jason> !dapper
[09:10] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[09:10] <nickrud> wamty, I just let firefox install it, but #ubuntu+1 may have more info about the packages
[09:10] <funtable> oskude: i used because, i never seem debian/ubuntu conf files before... :P
[09:10] <fraka> wen i install new them it says already installed but not anyone
[09:11] <oskude> funtable, thats ok, we need gui support too :)
[09:11] <IamEthos> tonyyarusso: does this install the new version alongside the old version?
[09:12] <IamEthos> I think that's what firefox did
[09:12] <IamEthos> instead of replacing
[09:12] <fraka> please help
[09:12] <fraka> please help
[09:12] <JRGC> How can i configure the IP address, default gateway and DNS from the console on ubuntu? Where are the config files?
[09:12] <fraka> wen i install new them it says already installed but not anyone
[09:12] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Only if the old version is installed (Firefox is default and required in Ubuntu, TB is not), but if you install both, then yes.
[09:12] <nickrud> JRGC, /etc/network/interfaces
[09:12] <fraka> wen i install new theme it says already installed but not anyone
[09:12] <markd> can anyone help me with a harddrive problem?
[09:12] <IamEthos> and when does dapper get released?
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: June 1.
[09:13] <ompaul> !dapper
[09:13] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[09:13] <IamEthos> aah
[09:13] <oskude> !helpme
[09:13] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[09:13] <IamEthos> is there an update tool for ubuntu?
[09:13] <IamEthos> or just reinstall?
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Apt/Synpatic will update everything.
[09:14] <IamEthos> aaah
[09:14] <oskude> ive heard dapper will have somekind of "easy update"
[09:14] <wamty> anyone?
[09:14] <orion_fr_24> !javascript
[09:14] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, orion_fr_24
[09:14] <IamEthos> so when dapper comes out, synaptic will just say "Hey, new stuff!"
[09:14] <IamEthos> and get it all?
[09:14] <oskude> i assume yes
[09:14] <fraka> can someone install themes on ubuntu=?
[09:14] <_jason> IamEthos: no, you have to update the repositories
[09:14] <_jason> ubotu: tell fraka about themes
[09:15] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: I don't think it will quite do dist-upgrades automatically, but it will for the next release after that.
[09:15] <markd> the partition tool with ubuntu wont work for me anymore, what other tool(s) can i use?
[09:15] <wamty> anyone know how to install flash player for mozilla in ubuntu dapper? flashplugin-nonfree doesn't work and flashplayer-mozilla doesn't exist :|
[09:15] <markd> windows wont boot or anything for me
[09:15] <JRGC> nickrud:  This file doesn't contain the IP or default gateway
[09:15] <fiendskull9> !dapper
[09:15] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[09:15] <IamEthos> is Ubuntu suitable as a primary operating system?
[09:15] <wamty> so?
[09:15] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: A few quick things to tell Synaptic "hey, look for Dapper now", and then it will gladly handle the upgrade process.
[09:15] <Fawzib> hello, I'm trying to make a deb for a python application, but all the samples are for compiled apps not interpreted ones. Is there a skeleton debian/rules for python programs or a site with samples?
[09:15] <_jason> IamEthos: it is for me
[09:15] <fiendskull9> can someone tell me where i can get the beta iso of dapper?
[09:15] <fk6> markd, who needs windows?
[09:15] <fiendskull9> i was told earlier, but forgot
[09:15] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Most certainly.
[09:15] <IamEthos> I do a lot of HTML work, a lot of student-type work
[09:16] <IamEthos> imaging stuff
[09:16] <markd> lol fk
[09:16] <oskude> IamEthos, i have linux as "primary" 4years now
[09:16] <markd> i cant do anything with my computer tho
[09:16] <markd> ubuntu wont install
[09:16] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Nvue for the HTML, Gimp for images.
[09:16] <markd> i think i ruined my partition table
[09:16] <markd> and the boot partition utility wont work
[09:16] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: *Nvu , no e.
[09:16] <oskude> markd, i hope you made backup...
[09:16] <nickrud> JRGC, that's where you can set that info; I'm just good enough for myself; man interfaces has all the details about the format & the like
[09:16] <markd> nah, i didnt, but i didnt have any important files
[09:17] <markd> im just wondering if my harddrive is still usable
[09:17] <fk6> markd, maybe time for re-format...you have back-up?
[09:17] <IamEthos> does Gimp hold it's own against photoshop?
[09:17] <oskude> IamEthos, if you like vector gracphic, see this http://xaraxtreme.org/ (it can even draw and save allready)
[09:17] <markd> fk, thats what i would like to do, but i dont know what tool to use
[09:17] <nickrud> IamEthos, I've been told by many people, 'don't recommend gimp to photoshop pros'
[09:18] <_jason> IamEthos: photoshop is definitely superior imo, but it depends on what you need to do.  For me, GIMP does everything I need it to
[09:18] <oskude> IamEthos, for the normal web usage is gimp more than enough...
[09:18] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: It can once you learn it.  There's also a version designed to have a Photoshop-like interface.  Additionally, there's some talk around the internet about Photoshop finally being ported to Linux, so you might be in luck in the future.
[09:18] <IamEthos> that'd be nice
[09:18] <fk6> mrkd, just stick in your ubuntu disk..or am I missing something.....I had smilar prob.
[09:19] <markd> fk, my ubuntu disk cant create the first ext3 partition or whatever
[09:19] <simongo> hello
[09:19] <IamEthos> as for Nvu: how convenient is it as an editor, if you disclude WYSIWYG features?
[09:19] <markd> and i cant use my windows install cd either so i dont know what to do
[09:19] <IamEthos> because I'm not really a WYS kind of guy
[09:19] <fk6> markd, you need a low level format disk...hi simongo
[09:20] <IamEthos> I prefer to type by hand
[09:20] <JRGC> nickrud:  And where can I set the DNS?
[09:20] <IamEthos> does it make things easier?
[09:20] <markd> fk, how can i create one?
[09:20] <oskude> IamEthos, gedit is enough for my html/php/bash/python ...
[09:20] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Just for the code then?  Like Dreamweaver, with a 'source' tab.  If you never want the WYSIWYG stuff, you can always use other things too, Gedit, Bluefish, Screem, etc.
[09:20] <schnable> hi, i need to install ubuntu on a rackmont machine that has no cdrom or floppy. it currently has freebsd on it.  any suggestions?
[09:20] <nickrud> JRGC,  /etc/resolv.conf is where you'd enter that
[09:21] <SilentJihad> Wazzup my nizzyz
[09:21] <SilentJihad> haha
[09:21] <fk6> markd, I have one..hang on ill dig it out...find out who its from.
[09:21] <IamEthos> is there anything that has a large 3rd party plugin base?
[09:21] <markd> thanks fk :)
[09:21] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Nvu, Gedit, and Bluefish all have highlighting/formatting for HTML to make it more readable, I assume Screem does too.
[09:21] <IamEthos> I reallly like HTML-Kit because so many users create really useful plugins for it
[09:21] <oskude> schnable, couple options: debootsrap from existing linux, network boot, hmm...
[09:22] <IamEthos> but alas, no HTML-Kit on linux
[09:22] <SilentJihad> Hey, for Windoze I use this Download accelerator, it's really cool it lets you pause and resume downloads anytime you want to. Do you know if there is anything like that for linux/ Ubuntu? Also, is there something similar to Dreamweaver for Linux?
[09:22] <IamEthos> without Wine at least
[09:22] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Starting with Dapper (Gnome 2.14) Gedit is extensible, don't know about the rest.
[09:22] <eirejah> hell
[09:22] <eirejah> o
[09:22] <SilentJihad> howdy erie
[09:22] <eirejah> can anyone help me out with ssl on ubuntu?
[09:22] <schnable> oskude: what do you mean by debootstrap? is that where i download vmlinuz from the installer and set my loader to load it?
[09:22] <nickrud> SilentJihad, gwget, d4x , there are others as well
[09:22] <JRGC> nickrud:  thank you very much!!
[09:23] <nickrud> JRGC, yw
[09:23] <tonyyarusso> SilentJihad: Plenty, you'll just have to choose one.  I think gwget2 fulfills  your first request, then Nvu for the second.  I've also heard some say Dreamwever might run with wine.
[09:23] <SilentJihad> nickrud what is d4X?
[09:23] <SilentJihad> ahh
[09:23] <nickrud> SilentJihad, downloader for X
[09:23] <SilentJihad> cool
[09:23] <SilentJihad> ok cool
[09:23] <funtable> SilentJihad, in linux you can use wget, to substitute Download Acelerator, this apps, can resume downloads, limit-rate, etc.
[09:24] <SilentJihad> yea, I used wget a bunch of times its awsome, just type in the address or whatever...
[09:24] <funtable> Dreamweaver dont suport linux :(
[09:24] <oskude> schnable, i only did this once (debootstrapped a suse to debian) and i followed a howto from net, so i dont know how "compatible" that is with ubuntu
[09:24] <kahuna_> Hi. Where can I find lame?
[09:24] <tonyyarusso> funtable: Have you tried it in wine?
[09:24] <SilentJihad> yea, Microshot is lame
[09:24] <SilentJihad> !vmware
[09:24] <ubotu> SilentJihad: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:25] <kahuna_> !lame
[09:25] <ubotu> kahuna_: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:25] <fk6> markd, you there?
[09:25] <nickrud> !info lame
[09:25] <ubotu> lame: (LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder), section multiverse/sound, is optional. Version: 3.96.1-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 222 kB, Installed size: 620 kB
[09:25] <oskude> schnable, but in all it was just making the partitions, debootstrapping the root partition, install grub and reboot (IIRC)
[09:25] <funtable> tony, i have a windows desktop to use win apps, i never tried wine
[09:25] <SilentJihad> !info vmware
[09:25] <kahuna_> crap. I can't find it.
[09:25] <tonyyarusso> funtable: Ah.  Might be worth looking into if you want to give it a shot.
[09:25] <markd> sorry
[09:26] <schnable> oskude: sure, that makes sense, but i dont know how freebsds bootloader works
[09:26] <markd> i was trying to find something
[09:26] <schnable> is my problem
[09:26] <oskude> schnable, well, it will/could be replaced
[09:26] <kahuna_> hmm. no multiverse that's why.
[09:26] <SilentJihad> The bot rocks
[09:26] <SilentJihad> haha
[09:26] <SilentJihad> !Tell SilentJihad he is sexy
[09:27] <schnable> oskude: do i need to set up a special server to  do a netboot install?
[09:27] <oskude> schnable, yes (but i never (yet) done that)
[09:27] <fk6> markd, mine is called EUROSOFT PC CHECK does loads of stuff! There are loads on the web that you can dload for free..If not I could mail?
[09:27] <toxic_> Need ACPI help ( A triggered event won't load / work . ) | Pastebin => http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10696
[09:27] <schnable> oskude: what is it called exactly, so i can serch the wiki
[09:28] <markd> fk, do they require a operating system, or do they just come up when you boot?
[09:28] <oskude> schnable, the debian tutorial that i used, had all that you needed (script, debootstrap, etc) in one nice tar, so it was very easy
[09:28] <fk6> karkd, Boot
[09:29] <jmorris1> how do i add sun java to ubuntu?
[09:29] <jmorris1> other than doing a manual install
[09:29] <oskude> schnable, hmm, netboot, maybe (i remember something about "tftp")
[09:29] <nickrud> !tell jmorris1 about java
[09:29] <oskude> schnable, and your NIC must support network boot !
[09:29] <nickrud> jmorris1, that link has a couple of methods

[09:31] <markd> ok thanks a lot fk
[09:32] <elad`> I can't sudo, the timestamp is too far in the future. But it won't let me re-enter it. What?
[09:33] <matid> Hi, do you know any way to show your ip, mask and dns info in one command?
[09:33] <elad`> How do I drop sudo so I can pick it up again with the new timestamp?
[09:34] <eirejah> can anyone help me out with ssl on ubuntu?
[09:35] <Paedrigh> I've installed support for mp3 in Rythmbox (gstreamer 0.8 mad), and still it doesn't read mp3. Anyone?
[09:35] <LinuxJones> Paedrigh: you running dapper ?
[09:35] <grout58> use xmms
[09:35] <IamEthos> I'm really hesitant about switching to Linux as a primary OS, just because I've invested so much time and effort into windows
[09:35] <Paedrigh> LinuxJones: yup, Dapper it is
[09:35] <IamEthos> if there were a few things that I could bring with me for sure
[09:36] <IamEthos> I'd probably be glad t o
[09:36] <LinuxJones> Paedrigh: the filename changed you need to install the gstreamer-ugly package (can't remember exactly it's name)
[09:36] <patrick522> is this a good version  Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake)
[09:36] <theCore> IamEthos: thrust me it worth it
[09:36] <grout58> what things are you looking to bring?
[09:36] <elad`> I'm running on a Pentium 4. How come Linux 386 is installed, not 586 or 686?
[09:36] <IamEthos> well
[09:36] <IamEthos> HTML-Kit
[09:36] <IamEthos> Adobe Audition
[09:36] <IamEthos> Photoshop
[09:36] <IamEthos> there are a lot fo things that I wish could run on Linux
[09:37] <theCore> IamEthos: all replacable easily
[09:37] <oskude> elad`, because of compatibility, you can allways install what ever and how many kernel(s) as you want
[09:37] <ompaul> patrick522, it will be it is being developed, go to the channel #ubuntu+1 to talk about it
[09:37] <grout58> look into a program called crossover office
[09:37] <IamEthos> not really
[09:37] <Paedrigh> LinuxJones: I just did that, I installed both the ugly and the bad package, and still no go. Should I uninstall the 0.8 version?
[09:37] <IamEthos> audacity doesn't come close to audition
[09:37] <IamEthos> fruity loops and reason
[09:37] <elad`> oskude, shouldn't I prefer 686 over 386?
[09:37] <IamEthos> also great examples
[09:37] <elad`> 386 was installed by the installation.
[09:37] <elad`> You know what I just meant.
[09:37] <iXce> hiya :)
[09:38] <iXce> i've got a strange issue
[09:38] <LinuxJones> Paedrigh: you can try
[09:38] <grout58> elad: depends what cd u use to install
[09:38] <theCore> IamEthos: tell me, do you use all the features of Audition ?
[09:38] <oskude> elad`, sec i got the prefect way to find that out "cat /proc/cpuinfo" and
[09:38] <afief> elad, if you're using pentium m then go for the 686
[09:38] <iXce> i'm using wpa_supplicant with an ipw2200 and WPA-PSK and hidden SSID
[09:38] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: As someone who did it, you might try installing !dualboot first, so you can get used to Linux without cutting yourself off completely from Windows just yet, and let yourself migrate gradually.
[09:38] <elad`> I got the CD in the mail. All it says is it's the 5.10 version for the PC.
[09:38] <oskude> elad`, look for "cpu family", that number is X in x86
[09:38] <iXce> and wpa_supplicant just can't connect to the AP :(
[09:39] <IamEthos> that's what I'm running right now
[09:39] <grout58> well then they sent you the i386 version
[09:39] <theCore> IamEthos: even art student like Linux :http://business.newsforge.com/business/06/03/09/2238246.shtml?tid=37
[09:39] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: ah, 'k.
[09:39] <IamEthos> I haven't run windows in 2 days
[09:39] <iXce> i'm running it in debug mode and it tells SSID mismatch
[09:39] <IamEthos> I like Linux a lot
[09:39] <IamEthos> but there are little things
[09:39] <elad`> It doesn't say anything about the family.
[09:39] <IamEthos> that drives me crazy
[09:39] <IamEthos> I can't disable the touchpad on my laptopo
[09:39] <Kezzer> what decent text editors are there in Ubuntu? I'm used to using jpico
[09:39] <grout58> like what?
[09:39] <elad`> Should I prefer the 586/686 version over the 386 version?
[09:39] <IamEthos> I've read all sorts of instructions online about it
[09:39] <grout58> gedit
[09:39] <Kezzer> <--- uber *nix newb
[09:39] <Kezzer> cheers grout58
[09:39] <IamEthos> and can't figure it out
[09:40] <theCore> IamEthos: they shout them so we can fix those together
[09:40] <afief> kezzer: Gedit, OOo writer, VIM....
[09:40] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: Touchpad issue would be a matter of commenting out a section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:40] <nickrud> elad`, the 3d line told me my cpu family (6) , so I run the 686 kernel
[09:40] <kingspawn> Kezzer: vim vim vim! :)
[09:40] <IamEthos> tonyyarusso: I did that
[09:40] <IamEthos> I think
[09:40] <IamEthos> xorg.conf uses pounds for comments, right?
[09:40] <IamEthos> I commented it out
[09:40] <elad`> vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
[09:40] <elad`> cpu family      : 15
[09:40] <Kezzer> heh, I'd prefer something Terminal based as opposed to seperate application =D
[09:40] <Kezzer> So I'll use VIM
[09:41] <kingspawn> Kezzer: good boy!
[09:41] <IamEthos> and then the gnome wouldn't load
[09:41] <tonyyarusso> IamEthos: I believe so, yes.  Did you save and restart X after that?  (And are you sure you commented out the right stuff?)
[09:41] <afief> kezzer: just time vim in your terminal:) works like a charm if you get used to it
[09:41] <oskude> doh, 15
[09:41] <elad`> Em?
[09:41] <IamEthos> I commented out synaptic touch pad
[09:41] <Kezzer> ah thankyou *bows* ;)
[09:41] <oskude> elad`, well, apt-cache shows "linux-686 - Complete Linux kernel on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/PIV."
[09:42] <IamEthos> didn't windows release MS Office for Linux at one point?
[09:42] <NeverDream> when was Shuttleworth planning on announcing the dapper delay?
[09:42] <grout58> haha
[09:42] <grout58> no
[09:42] <Seveas> NeverDream, it's been announced on monday
[09:42] <Kezzer> Also, I wouldn't mind getting some other themes for Ubuntu, this one is ok, but I'd prefer something more visually appealing ;)
[09:42] <grout58> kezzer, google gnome themes
[09:42] <afief> IamEthos: not as far as i heard... microsoft is a complete enemy to linux(open up your NTFS sepecifications you bastards)
[09:42] <IamEthos> the other thing is that I've been looking forward to Vista for a while
[09:43] <elad`> bbl
[09:43] <grout58> vista isnt even comming out for like another year
[09:43] <nickrud> Kezzer, if you have a fast connection, install gnome-art
[09:43] <grout58> like next january
[09:44] <kingspawn> IamEthos: hey, if you like Windows better, why not stick to it?
[09:44] <afief> by the way, until when is dapper delayed? and is flight 5 the quality of normal the 'unpolished' dapper?
[09:44] <ompaul> afief, not yet
[09:44] <httpdss> is it posible to dualhead on i855 (dapper)
[09:44] <grout58> hey why is dapper delayed is it because there adding the xgl stuff?
[09:44] <httpdss> ??
[09:44] <IamEthos> kingspawn: the thing is, I'm not sure which I like better
[09:44] <Kezzer> nickrud, wouldn't that download all of the art? =D
[09:44] <ompaul> Dapper has its own IRC channel #ubuntu+1
[09:44] <IamEthos> I really think that open source software is going to be the safe route in the long run
[09:45] <IamEthos> but there's a lot to lose switching from Windows and a lot to gain
[09:45] <afief> grout58: polishing, quality assurance, making things better than vista
[09:45] <nickrud> Kezzer, fast :) check art.gnome.org as well
[09:45] <NeverDream> Seveas, not on the ubuntu site
[09:45] <IamEthos> it's hard to weigh the pros and cons
[09:45] <Seveas> NeverDream, in the ubuntu-announce mailing list
[09:45] <IamEthos> if I had 2 computers, it wouldn't be such a big deal
[09:45] <grout58> adief, so no xgl in this release?
[09:45] <NeverDream> pfft
[09:45] <kingspawn> IamEthos: without a doubt, there is a great need for taking a stand against monopolies and software restrictions and patents and the whole shebang
[09:46] <pulgoki> TCP Sequence Prediction: Class=random positive increments Difficulty=5095248 (Good luck!) <--- im guessing that when nmap returns this from scanning your system is a good sign?
[09:46] <NeverDream> the news section should be removed if there isn't going to be any news on it
[09:46] <Seveas> NeverDream, but good call, you should poke heno (henrik@ubuntu.com) about it - it should be on the site
[09:46] <afief> grout58: XGL is algeady in the universe for dapper AFAIK
[09:46] <IamEthos> but I'd rather devote a single system to one OS
[09:46] <Kezzer> nickrud, that's what I'm checking out at the mo' but I don't know how to install any of these heh
[09:46] <NeverDream> will do
[09:46] <IamEthos> kingspawn: i'm very much about that
[09:46] <kingspawn> IamEthos: get two systems :)
[09:46] <nickrud> Kezzer, download the theme to your desktop, then drag & drop it onto the gnome-theme-manager
[09:46] <IamEthos> kingspawn: get me a raise :-)
[09:47] <kingspawn> IamEthos: done!
[09:47] <IamEthos> now get me out of college tuition debt
[09:47] <IamEthos> get me an engagement ring for my girlfriend
[09:47] <IamEthos> and a years payment on an apartment
[09:47] <IamEthos> and whammy
[09:47] <eirejah> can anyone help me out with ssl on ubuntu?
[09:48] <IamEthos> I will go buy a new computer this very moment
[09:48] <kingspawn> hahah
[09:48] <afief> IamEthos: I am willing to do so, but you'll have to sell me your very soul
[09:48] <grout58> not a bad deal
[09:48] <grout58> computer for a soul
[09:48] <kingspawn> you have made a lot of mistakes, my friend. both college and girlfriend - the appartement i can understand
[09:48] <IamEthos> that's what I was thinking
[09:48] <grout58> sounds like a decent trade
[09:48] <oskude> you all know that theres #ubuntu-offtopic too ?
[09:48] <mds\> IamEthos; sounds like dual booting is in your future
[09:48] <IamEthos> besides, I'm not sure it's so easy to actually collect on souls
[09:49] <IamEthos> so I might go for it
[09:49] <toxic_> Need ACPI/Hotkey help ( hotkey won't execute properly ) || Error: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server || Pastebin => http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10696
[09:49] <IamEthos> dual booting is in my present
[09:49] <IamEthos> I just don't like it
[09:49] <mds\> just the hassle of rebooting?
[09:49] <IamEthos> I have a distrust for windows working correctly under any abnormal circumstances
[09:49] <afief> IamEthos: I installed windows when i first moves to ubuntu, and i still have not configured the drivers... i just never loged in after the installation
[09:50] <IamEthos> everything time my hard drive light comes on, I think "Shit, there goes my windows partition, for no good reason."
[09:50] <kingspawn> IamEthos: windows will work, just dont expect it to let your linux partition alone
[09:50] <CrashProne> My setup is pretty convinced it has 7 floppy drives, it has none.  What's a reasonable way to make them not show in Gnome file managey-ness..
[09:50] <IamEthos> I wanted to put windows and linux on completely seperate drives
[09:50] <IamEthos> but that didn't work out
[09:50] <afief> kingspawn: it won't?:S mine didn't have any problems, as windows can't read reiserFS
[09:50] <kingspawn> IamEthos: when i dualbooted, windows could like to "check the disks for consitency" at boot. checking for consistency obviously meant correcting the mbr
[09:50] <IamEthos> brb
[09:51] <IamEthos> lol
[09:51] <kingspawn> s/could/would
[09:51] <kingspawn> afief; heh, my last comment to IamEthos :)
[09:51] <grout58> hey everytime i mount my second drive it wont let me access it because of permissions
[09:51] <kingspawn> afief: it is of course not the rule, but probably the exception
[09:51] <afief> kingspwan: bad windows... well mine didn't do it yet, so i think i should give it a coocky for beeing so good
[09:51] <kingspawn> grout58: mount it with umask=0222 if it is ntfs
[09:52] <grout58> its not ntfs its ext3
[09:52] <CrashProne> My setup is pretty convinced it has 7 floppy drives, it has none.  What's a reasonable way to make them not show in Gnome file managey-ness?
[09:52] <shoun> hi, im new in ubuntu , how can i watch mpg videos
[09:52] <afief> shoun: read the restricted formats on wiki or install Automatix
[09:52] <CrashProne> shoun: look up the topic "RestrictedFormats" on the Ubuntu site.. good resource.
[09:52] <nickrud> shoun, read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats , it'll walk you through the non-free media
[09:52] <oskude> toxic_, just some quessing, where did you get the "/etc/acpi/screenblank.sh" ? was it with ubuntu ?
[09:53] <ubuntu> Hello, is it possible to "download" codecs with Ubuntu Live CD?
[09:53] <Blippe> ubuntu does not find my dvdplayer... what to do?
[09:53] <NeverDream> ubuntu, yes
[09:53] <afief> Blippe: what's your player?
[09:53] <shoun> ok , thanks ill read it
[09:53] <ubuntu> how do I do that? :)
[09:53] <grout58> kingspawn, how can i mount this drive and still have access to it?
[09:53] <toxic_> oskude, That would be my guess yeah. Why ?
[09:53] <GTroy> how do I select my wifi card from terminal?
[09:53] <Blippe> SBW-242 it has worked with ubuntu before...
[09:53] <NeverDream> ubuntu, the easiest way would be automatix
[09:54] <afief> grout58: you mount it TO access it:S
[09:54] <ubuntu> i'm new to Ubuntu, what is that?
[09:54] <grout58> yea but it wont let me
[09:54] <grout58> says i dont have permission
[09:54] <nickrud> !automatix
[09:54] <ubotu> I guess 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.
[09:54] <Blippe> afief, more than what i said above, it is a quanta
[09:54] <kingspawn> grout58: well, you could add the device to the group of the user, you could --bind it to somewhere the user owns
[09:54] <oskude> toxic_, i was just quessing that the script is not "correct" (if you got it outside ubuntu)
[09:55] <NeverDream> ubuntu, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80295
[09:55] <ubuntu> ty :)
[09:55] <oskude> toxic_, but i remember seeing "MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1" but dunno where...
[09:55] <afief> wow newb flood:)
[09:55] <NeverDream> but like ubotu warns, it's unsafe
[09:55] <tarheel> anyone know how to get mplayer to stream movies off the web
[09:55] <grout58> how do i bind a drive to my home dir
[09:55] <Blippe> ubuntu stay away from automatix, and if you absolutely have to use a shortcut, use easyubuntu
[09:55] <GTroy> afief: yep
[09:55] <NeverDream> just easy
[09:55] <toxic_> oskude, That would have been quite a good guess, but since kernel 2.4 something acpi is part of the linux kernel, and I haven't installed any external acpi scripts ..
[09:55] <nickrud> oskude, isn't that something to do with .Xauthority?
[09:55] <tarheel> it keep defaulting to totem
[09:55] <oskude> nickrud, could be
[09:55] <CrashProne> How do I get rid of some of the entries shown in 'computer:///' in Gnome? (7 floppy drives shown that don't exist)
[09:56] <ubuntu> why?
[09:56] <NeverDream> ubuntu, /msg ubotu automatix
[09:56] <toxic_> oskude, yeah, there's alot of info about that part on google. Not with this is specific, but trying to start a program (gui) and the x server complains. It seems it's solved by su prog_name by most. But that doesn't seem to help in my case though.
[09:56] <SilentPenguin> Ubuntu Rocks
[09:56] <SilentPenguin> really this is by far the best distro I have tried
[09:57] <oskude> toxic_, you could try runnig that script from terminal for error hunting...
[09:57] <NeverDream> it rocks, but it could be prettier
[09:57] <kingspawn> grout58: man mount will tell you a whole lot about the different options you have when mounting a disk
[09:57] <GTroy> hey guys how do you select, and activate your wifi card from terminal
[09:57] <GTroy> ?
[09:57] <afief> SilentPenguin: show your amazement by helping noobs and writing some nice guides/scripts:P
[09:57] <ubuntu> well, 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.
[09:58] <afief> GTroy: i think it's through wconfig or fconfig, but don't know how
[09:58] <patrick522> how do see ntfs partions
[09:58] <GTroy> afief: gotcha will give both a try
[09:58] <tristanmike> !tell patrick522 about ntfs
[09:58] <toxic_> oskude, yeah. I get the same error though. Error: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server acpi, and magic cookie error again :S
[09:59] <tristanmike> patrick522, you can't write to ntfs, but you can read from it, see ubotu's pm for more information
[09:59] <afief> !tell afief about ntfs
[09:59] <SilentPenguin> hehe I am a noob myselef, but I have been playing with Linux for a long time, unfortunately I haven't been able to find a distro that would support all of my hardware.  Until Ubuntu, most all of my stuff is sup\ported.
[09:59] <tristanmike> afief, you can "/msg ubotu <fact>" for discrete one on one encounters with ubotu
[09:59] <SilentPenguin> even my freekin winmodem!!
[09:59] <SilentPenguin> crazy ah":
[10:00] <nickrud> ubuntu, a lot of people have used automatix successfully, but for those who have troubles, it can be  extremely hard to clean up behind it
[10:00] <patrick522> theres a sudo code to do it but i cant remeber
[10:00] <oskude> toxic_, i dont know more neither, (and if google didnt help) so _i_ would trial and error in that script :)
[10:00] <afief> tristanmike: I'm still a noob my selfI(angel smily)
[10:00] <ubuntu> well i'm just having a Live cd atm :P
[10:00] <tristanmike> patrick522, if you download and run the script ubotu points to, it will mount all windows drives in their proper form
[10:00] <ubuntu> probably i have ubuntu as a server only with no extras :)
[10:01] <tristanmike> afief, no sweat, thought you might like to know that
[10:01] <ajjeko> Hey guys, Hows it goin?
[10:01] <GTroy> still no luck with fconfig, or wconfig
[10:01] <afief> tristanmike: I sure do;) but i like commenting even more
[10:01] <oneseventeen> I'm trying to transcode some .mp4 files to .mpg for video use, any tips?
[10:01] <GTroy> I have my card installed, no problems there, but I'm in terminal and can't select it
[10:01] <afief> ubuntu: if you want a bare bone server, Debian might be better
[10:01] <toxic_> oskude, There's probably some good info on page 30992 on google :P Yeah, I guess I'll go for the trial and error. Just buggs me that all sugestions that I've found so far is typing "su -" before performing the cmd. Oh well, thanks anyway for your help.
[10:02] <oskude> toxic_, or its just a "simple" problem with rights
[10:02] <oneseventeen> (ffmpeg says unsupported codec)
[10:02] <ubuntu> have Debian now... it really sucks. many problems =)
[10:02] <afief> ubuntu: you're the expert:) me didn't even try debian yet
[10:02] <ajjeko> Hey, I'm on my Live CD, on the phone with a friend, who is retarded at linux, but decided to install it anyways.  I'm curious about updating his old hoary to current, any link I can direct him to?

[10:03] <tarheel> oops
[10:03] <oskude> toxic_, what does "echo $DISPLAY" say ?
[10:03] <toxic_> oskude, might be. But then it should work as root I guess
[10:03] <ajjeko> Thankyou :-D
[10:03] <toxic_> oskue :0.0
[10:03] <GTroy> ?
[10:03] <GTroy> instead of the networking app
[10:04] <Blippe> how do i find my dvd-player?
[10:04] <oskude> toxic_, do you get the exact same error with and with out "sudo" (when running the script form terminal) ?
[10:04] <GTroy> Blippe: my computer
[10:04] <toxic_> oskude, hmm .. nvm actually. That might be the problem. In regular usermode DISPLAY gives me :0.0 something, but as root it's blank :D I'll assign correct val to it and try again.
[10:04] <GTroy> from places
[10:04] <Blippe> it is not in /dev/cdrom or /devhda1 or other places it should be
[10:05] <dwhsix> GTroy: ifdown ath0 (?)
[10:05] <pedro> I have a snanner  Genius Color Pave Vivid Pro III and I like to know how a install
[10:05] <dwhsix> GTroy: I'm not on my laptop, I don't remember the wireless interface name
[10:06] <eobanb> it depends on the driver you're using
[10:06] <eobanb> it could be eth0, ath0, or wlan0
[10:06] <GTroy> dwhsix: thanks for your help
[10:06] <pedro> X sane
[10:06] <dwhsix> eobanb: agreed
[10:06] <GTroy> eobanb: it's a netgear
[10:06] <GTroy> usb
[10:07] <oskude> does ubuntu have something like this ? http://hardwaredb.suse.de

[10:08] <SilentPenguin> man, Suse is the 1974 Crown Victora of Linux Distos. A 5 ton brick with wheels.
[10:08] <southern> I'm searching a linux filemanager under ubuntu (very similar to Total Commander)
[10:09] <Dr|J> GTroy where do i get it from? :|
[10:09] <GTroy> synaptic
[10:09] <MrCollins> LOL
[10:09] <southern> guys pls a file manager :P
[10:09] <GTroy> southern: try beagle
[10:09] <toxic_> oskude, bash export DISPLAY=:0.0 ... Isn't that the way it's supposed to be typed ?
[10:09] <southern> ok thank you I try it...
[10:09] <GTroy> oh file manager....metacity?
[10:09] <sfar-ubu> whats the main difference between breezy and dapper?
[10:09] <sfar-ubu> *differences
[10:10] <oskude> toxic_, could be...
[10:10] <sfar-ubu> can i read about it somewhere?
[10:10] <kingspawn> mc, best filemanager there is
[10:10] <southern> kingspawn, yes but I want graphical...
[10:11] <oskude> toxic_, btw, i dont know if anyone else (even root) has permissions (by default) to communicate with your x display...
[10:11] <kingspawn> southern: hm, there is one that is just like mc, only graphical.. cant remember the name, though
[10:11] <kingspawn> oskude: probably need to XAuth
[10:12] <toxic_> oskude, That seems strange to me. I'm guessing there's no chmoding to set permissions either :|
[10:12] <southern> kingspawn, :((((
[10:12] <oskude> !mc
[10:12] <ubotu> oskude: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:12] <oskude> aptcache shows "mc - midnight commander - a powerful file manager" ;)
[10:13] <Phlosten> gnome commander?

[10:13] <kingspawn> southern: google is your bestest friend
[10:13] <jmorris1> i tried to install java in dapper and got an error
[10:13] <jmorris1> i followed the instructions in the faq
[10:13] <jmorris1> the google instructions were different
[10:14] <oskude> !dapper
[10:14] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[10:14] <jmorris1> i mean the sun instructions
[10:14] <nickrud> southern, try apt-cache search file | grep 'file manager' that shows several worth looking at
[10:14] <simonpca> jmorris1: a lot of people have probs installing java on linux...
[10:14] <asian> what is the correct way to pronounce ubuntu?
[10:14] <jmorris1> simonpca:  i used sudo apt-get install fakeroot java-package java- common
[10:15] <jmorris1> it failed on java-package
[10:15] <simonpca> jmorris1: have you tried on the java website?
[10:15] <simonpca> asian: the way tyou want!
[10:16] <test_> southern: this looks pretty good http://krusader.sourceforge.net/
[10:16] <jmorris1> simonpca i tried to install it the way ubuntu faq said
[10:16] <nickrud> jmorris1, the following line mentions what to do if you fail on java-package, you need the multiverse repository enabled, see the following ubotu factoid
[10:16] <jmorris1> the sun instructions were different
[10:16] <nickrud> !easysource
[10:16] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[10:16] <southern> thank you for help guys
[10:16] <southern> another question
[10:17] <southern> how can I remove or clean unwanted  libs ?
[10:17] <jmorris1> nickrud:  how come the sun and ubuntu faq have the install method differently?
[10:17] <jmorris1> one says to run the .bin
[10:17] <phuswork> if i had to setup a vpn connection between a redhat and ubuntu box what would be the easiest way ?
[10:17] <jmorris1> the other says to do sudo apt-get install fakeroot java-package java- common
[10:17] <phuswork> what native tools on both could I use
[10:17] <Mosi_> I'm trying to create a logout script for bash in my home directory. Can anyone tell me the correct name?
[10:17] <oskude> jmorris1, sun != ubuntu
[10:18] <phuswork> .bash_logout ?
[10:18] <nickrud> jmorris1, converting sun's .bin to a .deb integrates java into ubuntu properly, allowing various extra tricks, not least of which is easy uninstall when sun releases a new version
[10:18] <jmorris1> ahh ok gotcha
[10:18] <asian> simonpca: heh, well, was there a man who came up with the name? if so, how does he 'like' to pronounce it?
[10:18] <Mosi_> phuswork: is that a guess, or the name?
[10:18] <jmorris1> oskude:  Im talking about sun java, not solaris
[10:18] <Mabus06> how come my system is so laggy? I have a 2.8ghz processor and 1gb of ram, and no processes in the system log are using much of it at all. But gedit shortcut doesn't work, only gedit from terminal. Totem plays horribly out of sync, and lags like 30 seconds between items on the playlist. Rhythmbox is just as bad. Help?
[10:18] <phuswork> Mosi_, it should be .logout or .bash_logout iirc
[10:18] <jmorris1> nickrud:  Gotcha
[10:19] <jmorris1> nickrud:  see i didnt know these things :)
[10:19] <simonpca> asian: You-boun-tou?
[10:19] <Mosi_> phuswork: thanks. one more question... what's iirc? :P
[10:19] <nickrud> jmorris1, no problem, I kinda figured :)
[10:19] <phuswork> if i recall correctly
[10:19] <SilentPenguin> Hey, anyone know any good VoiP PRograms for linux?
[10:19] <tristanmike> Teamspeak
[10:19] <Mosi_> SilentPenguin: have you tried Skype?
[10:19] <phuswork> ventrillo
[10:19] <phuswork> asterisk
[10:19] <tristanmike> ventrillo isn't for linux last i checked
[10:19] <phuswork> googletalk, gaim
[10:19] <Mosi_> phuswork: is Vent out for Linux now?
[10:20] <phuswork> Mosi_, yes
[10:20] <brettcar> SilentPenguin: Tapioca was just updated today... tapioca-voip.sf.net
[10:20] <jmorris1> nickrud in dapper universe is already enabled
[10:20] <SilentPenguin> You know I would use Skype but they wont take my Credit Card. I need to make PC-Phone calls
[10:20] <brettcar> with GTalk support, too.
[10:20] <oskude> jmorris1, and your using dapper and it has its channel in #ubuntu+1
[10:20] <Mosi_> phuswork: nice. i wonder how they're doing on  the oS X version
[10:20] <Alexi5> hello
[10:20] <brettcar> SilentPenguin: Use a SIP client and any SIP service that takes your credit card.
[10:20] <phuswork> Mosi_, out also
[10:20] <tristanmike> phuswork, ventrilo for linux is not out yet
[10:20] <Mosi_> phuswork: fuckin' win. i didn't know that, thanks for the tip :P
[10:20] <nickrud> jmorris1, multiverse is what you need. the simplest method is adding multiverse to the ends of line 19 & 20 (where universe is enabled)
[10:20] <asian> simonpca is that you-BOON-to, or YOU-boon-to. or you-BUN-to, or YOU-bun-to, etc...
[10:20] <SilentPenguin> brettcar, dont you have to have some hardware to use SIP?
[10:20] <phuswork> tristanmike, yeah it is
[10:20] <brettcar> SilentPenguin: No, SIP is a protocol.
[10:20] <jmorris1> nickrud oh multiverse
[10:21] <jmorris1> gotcha
[10:21] <tristanmike> Directly taken off of Ventrilo's site "Linux i386 - 32bit  	
[10:21] <tristanmike> N/A
[10:21] <tristanmike> 
[10:21] <tristanmike> In development"
[10:21] <brettcar> SilentPenguin: You can run a software SIP phone and talk to people using a headset and microphone.
[10:21] <tristanmike> crap, sorry
[10:21] <SilentPenguin> I have Yahoo on Windoze but I hate swiching to windows just to make a phone call
[10:21] <ben> are there any ubuntu isos out there that are smaller than the server image?
[10:22] <tristanmike> the "server" is available for Linux, but the client is not
[10:22] <brettcar> SilentPenguin: Try any number of the SIP Linux clients with a SIP provider. Tapicoa I pointed you to is one, but I have not tried it.
[10:22] <oskude> ben, sadly no (AFAIK)
[10:22] <patrick522> has any one played UT2004 on ubuntu
[10:22] <phuswork> $ tail ventrilo_srv.log

[10:22] <ben> oskude: annoying, i need to fit something on a 500mb usb stick
[10:22] <phuswork> i guess i'm making it up then
[10:23] <Mosi_> ben: why does it have to be Ubuntu?
[10:23] <SilentPenguin> ok
[10:23] <SilentPenguin> I will try them then
[10:23] <tristanmike> you can have the server version
[10:23] <ba> oskude, what about the prodigy installer
[10:23] <phuswork> tristanmike, ahh that's what i ment
[10:23] <ben> Mosi_: guess it doesnt have to be, but its my distro of choice
[10:23] <phuswork> vent server :-)
[10:23] <oskude> ba, what ? where ?
[10:23] <ben> as far as ease of ease and power go
[10:23] <Mosi_> ben: what are you using it for?
[10:23] <ba> nevermind
[10:23] <tristanmike> phuswork, yeah, the client, which is what most will use, is not out yet
[10:23] <phuswork> ahh sorry
[10:23] <ben> Mosi: host mono for web services
[10:24] <dan> How do I set my network settings in Evolution Mail Client like I do in thunderbird
[10:24] <ben> but i like the east of admin of ubuntu
[10:24] <ben> east = ease
[10:24] <tristanmike> phuswork, but realistically, they have servers for BF2 which is defintately not availble for Linux
[10:24] <jmorris1> nickrud multiverse is enabled in dapper
[10:24] <jmorris1> main restricted universe multiverse
[10:24] <SilentPenguin> What do they mean when they say... Add to my apt list?
[10:24] <jmorris1> no way to select it but everything is enabled by default
[10:24] <tristanmike> phuswork, servers that run under linux, but not the client that is
[10:24] <Mosi_> ben: you don't really need a pretty distro for a server. I bet if you look you can find a distro made for webserver'ing that'll fit just fine on your flash
[10:24] <jmorris1> its different slightly than the old version
[10:24] <sfar-ubu> what to do with a .bin-file? :)
[10:24] <jmorris1> hummm
[10:24] <jmorris1> ill check out #ubuntu+1
[10:25] <brettcar> SilentPenguin: Add to the /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:25] <ben> Mosi_: yes but when the new version of mono comes out i will have headaches
[10:25] <nickrud> jmorris1, good idea
[10:25] <Mosi_> ben: because no dpkg?
[10:25] <dan> How do I set my network settings in Evolution Mail Client like I do in thunderbird
[10:25] <ben> ya
[10:25] <Alexi5> about how much space ia required for ubuntu
[10:25] <patrick522> is there any program like flash for ubuntu
[10:25] <_jason> sfar-ubu: if the bin file is a virus, you throw it in the trash.  If the in file is something you want to run and you can't use synaptic to do it, you run it
[10:25] <Mosi_> ben: dpkg is one of the bigger package managers out there AFAIK, you might be able to find something that uses it
[10:26] <sfar-ubu> _jason:  :D
[10:26] <_jason> patrick522: to view or create?
[10:26] <SilentPenguin> ok, so like I find a program... they say add to the /etc/apt list... then how would I download???
[10:26] <patrick522> create
[10:26] <asian> so is there no definitive position on the correct pronounciation? =) .. i'm just dieing with curiosity ;-(
[10:26] <oskude> Alexi5, ~3gb, MINIMUM (for ubuntu-desktop)
[10:26] <sfar-ubu> _jason: thanks, i knew i was supposed to run it, but i didnt know how :>
[10:26] <brettcar> SilentPenguin: apt-get update; apt-get install packagename
[10:26] <_jason> sfar-ubu: what is it a bin file of?
[10:26] <SilentPenguin> oh ok
[10:26] <Mosi_> asian: everyone i know pronounces it "ooh-BOON-too"
[10:26] <patrick522> _jason: to create
[10:26] <chuckyp> Silencer, you add the repository to /etc/apt/sources.list like their directions say then apt-get update then apt-get install programname
[10:27] <sfar-ubu> _jason: xmms-control desklet thingy
[10:27] <sfar-ubu> a sensor
[10:27] <_jason> patrick522: I don't know of any.  There was was a project called f4l, flash 4 linux, but I haven't heard much about it
[10:27] <asian> Mosi_ really? 'ooh' as in the word 'obo' ? a long 'oh'? how strange, ive never heard it said that way
[10:28] <_jason> sfar-ubu: hmmm I don't know what you do with those.  To run a file you just go to the directory where it is located and do ./file though
[10:28] <carl_m> Hey all, when i press SHIFT+BACKSPACE X restarts, is there any way to disable this ?
[10:28] <patrick522> is there any program to create  flash on ubuntu
[10:28] <Mosi_> asian: no, ooh, like oo, as in room.
[10:28] <Kezzer> How do I unmount a drive?
[10:29] <Kezzer> I can't do it from the desktop as it says I need to be root
[10:29] <Mosi_> asian: or in the way i spelled it, like 'ooh, ahh'
[10:29] <caracol> Hello all
[10:29] <kingspawn> Kezzer: sudo umount /drive
[10:29] <asian> Mosi_: oh i see heh =)
[10:29] <Mosi_> asian- :)
[10:29] <Kezzer> kingspawn, it couldn't find anything on unmount in the manual which was odd
[10:29] <dan> How do I set my network settings in Evolution Mail Client like I do in thunderbird
[10:30] <sfar-ubu> _jason: "./file" didnt work.. "file" did tho.. replied "Install_XMMS_Sensor.bin: a python script text executable
[10:30] <sfar-ubu> "
[10:30] <kingspawn> Kezzer: what do you mean? oh. it is called "umount", not "unmount" - if that was what you meant
[10:30] <Kezzer> doh, apologies =)
[10:30] <_jason> sfar-ubu: I meant ./nameofthefileyouwanttorun
[10:30] <sfar-ubu> ah :D
[10:31] <deizi> damn. got me avi's etc working on totem, but no sound
[10:31] <SilentPenguin> ok , so it tells me to add.. "" deb http://extindt01.indt.org/tapioca/apt breezy main "" to my list,,,, so I type.. gedit /ect/apt/sources.list  It brings up the list but it dosent let me edit it.
[10:31] <sfar-ubu> _jason: that worked better ;)
[10:31] <nickrud> SilentPenguin, gksudo gedit /etc/....
[10:31] <SilentPenguin> I tried sudo first then gedit
[10:31] <SilentPenguin> but it said something about the time and to far in the future or something
[10:31] <SilentPenguin> lol
[10:31] <jacek> lol
[10:31] <nickrud> timestamp
[10:32] <chuckyp> SilentPenguin, touch filename to update the date problem
[10:32] <kingspawn> Kezzer: common mistake - its a wonder its not called "unmount", actually.
[10:32] <Mosi_> is anyone else using irssi?
[10:32] <Chousuke> me.
[10:32] <caracol> Do you know where to find a good and simple command line reference/tutorial for linux/Ubuntu? I'm new to linux and need to know how to copy and delete and list stuff from the console
[10:32] <kingspawn> Mosi_: yeah
[10:32] <grout58> whats everyones favorite linux bit torrent client?
[10:32] <Mosi_> Chousuke: do you know how to switch between tabs?
[10:33] <SilentPenguin> yea it says.. "Timestamp to far in the future:
[10:33] <kingspawn> switch between tabs?
[10:33] <SilentPenguin> what does that mean?
[10:33] <_jason> Mosi_: alt+<number>
[10:33] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i install world of warcraft with wine?
[10:33] <bjv> caracol:  cp, rm, ls   :P

[10:33] <albinoblacksh33p> ok
[10:33] <caracol> thankx for those :)
[10:33] <bjv> caracol:  ls does not stand for List Stuff. even though that's what it does. :\
[10:33] <Chousuke> Mosi_: tabs?

[10:33] <nickrud> caracol, http://linuxcommands.com/ is a decent reference

[10:34] <kingspawn> grout58: bittornado, maybe
[10:34] <SilentPenguin> grout58 cedega is better than wine?
[10:34] <nickrud> caracol, arg, that's a bad link, I see if I remember the right one
[10:34] <grout58> for gaming cedega is much better
[10:34] <bjv> albinoblacksh33p: installing WoW was a pain with both wine & cedega :\
[10:34] <Chousuke> Mosi_: Sometimes alt doesn't work as meta. esc works. :)
[10:34] <grout58> cedega uses directx
[10:34] <SilentPenguin> !cedega
[10:34] <bjv> albinoblacksh33p: i wound up just copying my friends install over the network.
[10:34] <Chousuke> grout58: Wine includes directx support too
[10:35] <Mosi_> Chousuke: thanks for the history lesson :P seems alt fulfills that function on an apple keyboard
[10:35] <Chousuke> grout58: Cedega's is just somewhat more advanced.
[10:35] <bjv> albinoblacksh33p: waaaaay faster, didnt have to dl the patches either :P
[10:35] <eggzeck> caracol: use "man" to learn more about those commands
[10:35] <albinoblacksh33p> um
[10:35] <Chousuke> Mosi_: doesn't work for me.
[10:35] <eggzeck> caracol: such as "man ls"
[10:35] <Chousuke> Mosi_: on a powerbook here.
[10:35] <grout58> i'ver played world of wacraft and counter strike source on cedega wihtout a hitch
[10:35] <albinoblacksh33p> cedega costs money
[10:35] <Mosi_>  Chousuke: you using a mac?
[10:35] <caracol> nickrud: the link is fine i' looking at the page now, thankx
[10:35] <grout58> yea like 5 bucks a month
[10:35] <Mosi_> Chousuke: oh, that's different
[10:35] <jmorris1> i screwed up my repositories
[10:35] <Chousuke> Mosi_: running OS X though.

[10:36] <gabbah> the firefox window doesn't get it's firefox icon :(  Instead I have an ugly all purpose icon at the top left corner... how can I fix this?
[10:36] <bjv> albinoblacksh33p: then copy the big file off all the otehr disks, and put in the same dir
[10:36] <bjv> albinoblacksh33p: then run the installer.
[10:36] <_jason> caracol: go through the guides in the private message from ubotu, they are very helpful
[10:36] <jmorris1> actually i screwed them up for dapper
[10:36] <Mosi_> Chousuke: I swear there are no drivers for it anywhere, lol. i had a hell of a time with it. Then i upgraded to a SMP kernel, and it solved itself O_o
[10:36] <albinoblacksh33p> i cant run installer tho i am in ubuntu
[10:37] <jmorris1> ill try #ubuntu+1
[10:37] <albinoblacksh33p> ???

[10:37] <albinoblacksh33p> i have wine
[10:37] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i install wow with it tho
[10:37] <Mosi_> caracol: the -k option to man allows you to search in man page descriptions. i.e. man -k [keyword] 
[10:37] <grout58> $15 is worth being able to play world of warcraft and cs:s for me on linux
[10:37] <patrick5222> has any one installed ut2004 on ubuntu
[10:37] <albinoblacksh33p> me

[10:38] <patrick5222> does it work
[10:38] <albinoblacksh33p> ya
[10:38] <patrick5222> how u do it
[10:38] <bjv> albinoblacksh33p: cd to the directory in a terminal and type    wine installer.exe
[10:38] <tristanmike> albinoblacksh33p, i believe you put the cd in the rom and right click on the exe and select open with wine or something like that
[10:38] <albinoblacksh33p> i need to install wow.exe
[10:38] <Mosi_> albinoblacksh33p: what do you use for it, wine?
[10:38] <caracol> thanks mozi_

[10:38] <albinoblacksh33p> ???
[10:38] <albinoblacksh33p> wine is what i use
[10:38] <Mosi_> albinoblacksh33p: i'm assuming there is not a version of UT2k4 native for Linux?
[10:39] <Mosi_> albinoblacksh33p: ok
[10:39] <grout58> i think there is
[10:39] <GigaClon> I thought there was
[10:39] <bjv> there is.

[10:39] <albinoblacksh33p> i cant remember
[10:39] <st3v3dnd> Does anyone have any recommendations on free antivirus scanners?
[10:39] <albinoblacksh33p> ME
[10:40] <southern> is there better file manager THAN gnome-commander?
[10:40] <albinoblacksh33p> AEGIS
[10:40] <kingspawn> southern: mc ;)) (sorry)
[10:40] <caracol> another question; if i open a console with ctrl+alt+f1 and login as root i don't need to use the sudo command do i?
[10:40] <oskude> !better
[10:40] <ubotu> Better for what? Better for whom? Why don't you try them all, then decide for yourself?
[10:40] <GigaClon> nautillius
[10:40] <albinoblacksh33p> in the repository
[10:40] <FliesLikeABrick> what port does rsyncd listen on?
[10:40] <polpak> st3v3dnd, why do you think you need an AV scanner?
[10:40] <bjv> southern: (secret) *i use konqueror*
[10:40] <patrick5222> on my ut2004 dvd theres a linux-installer.sh
[10:40] <patrick5222>  file
[10:40] <albinoblacksh33p> I NEED 2 INSTALL WOW
[10:40] <chuckyp> caracol, thats true if you enable the root account.  Or you can just use sudo -s will give you a root shell.
[10:40] <bjv> southern: dont tell anyone -_-
[10:40] <albinoblacksh33p> double clik
[10:40] <tristanmike> caracol, if you are root, you don't need sudo, no
[10:40] <southern> ok :D
[10:40] <Mosi_> caracol: nope, all using sudo does is change your effective UID to 0 for the purpose of that command, which is to say, make you root temporarily
[10:40] <albinoblacksh33p> help...
[10:41] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, whats your problem?
[10:41] <st3v3dnd> polpak: For the same reason to have a firewall, it's just smart business to have your system protected
[10:41] <caracol> ok,  thanks a lot guys
[10:41] <bjv> he cant figure out how to right click the wow installer
[10:41] <caracol> bye
[10:41] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, try sudo apt-get install aegis
[10:41] <southern> guys

[10:42] <albinoblacksh33p> no work giga
[10:42] <burgermann> Hi. What's the name of the package that includes the c compiler? Somehting like build-essentials isn't it?
[10:42] <polpak> st3v3dnd, that might be true, except that there aren't any linux virii in the wild, and you don't even really need a firewall w/ ubuntu since none of the daemons will listen to the outside world anyway
[10:42] <student> does the gnome lockdown application work in gnome 2.12?
[10:42] <GigaClon> burgermann, yea
[10:42] <polpak> patrick5222, you don't need to install ut2004 w/ wine
[10:42] <polpak> patrick5222, it runs natively
[10:42] <jmorris1> i added the missing repositories and checked all of them in channels then reloaded, now it says i have errors
[10:43] <oskude> burgermann, build-essential
[10:43] <jmorris1> i think i need to reinstall <grin>
[10:43] <patrick5222> polpak: i click the linux-installer.sh
[10:43] <patrick5222>  but it does run for me
[10:43] <nickrud> jmorris1, did you do an update afterwards?
[10:43] <polpak> patrick5222, copy the file to your desktop
[10:43] <jmorris1> nickrud no
[10:43] <nickrud> jmorris1, you need to
[10:43] <gabbah> the firefox window doesn't get it's firefox icon :(  Instead I have an ugly all purpose icon at the top left corner... how can I fix this?
[10:43] <jmorris1> nickrud it said there were errors after i reloaded and gave a list of stuff
[10:44] <albinoblacksh33p> um
[10:44] <albinoblacksh33p> i still need help
[10:44] <patrick5222> polpak: wat thw whole dvd or the installer
[10:44] <Kezzer> Would doing apt-get install kubuntu-desktop mess up my applications? =X
[10:44] <nickrud> jmorris1, post the errors on paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[10:44] <jb0nd38372> Any idea what kind of fps i might expect with wow on a pentium d 3ghz, nvidia 7800 and the latest nvidia drivers? oh and which is actually better at running wow, cedega or wine?
[10:44] <GigaClon> albinoblacksh33p, does it give you any error messages?
[10:44] <jmorris1> nickrud:  i closed the window
[10:44] <nickrud> Kezzer, not at all
[10:44] <bjv> Kezzer: i have it installed.
[10:44] <albinoblacksh33p> ya
[10:44] <tristanmike> Kezzer, nope
[10:44] <moi1392> hello, there is a simple way to switch between ubuntu and kubuntu (in one click, change bootsplash, login manager and default desktop)
[10:44] <nickrud> jmorris1, run the command again :)
[10:44] <jmorris1> nickrud all i did was reload
[10:44] <jmorris1> ill see if it comes again
[10:44] <_jason> gabbah: http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/tips#app_icon
[10:44] <GigaClon> albinoblacksh33p, use pastebin and paste the errors there
[10:45] <burgermann> oskude: thx :)
[10:45] <jmorris1> nope doesnt show
[10:45] <albinoblacksh33p> pastebin?
[10:45] <st3v3dnd> polpak:  No, they don't listen automatically, but I run other services such as apache, postgres and such, and I do have those open to external connections, Regarding the AV though, just because there aren't any today, doesn't mean there won't be any tomorrow. The more popular Linux gets, the more likely there will be viruses.
[10:45] <dwhsix> dan: edit | preferences | mail accounts ?  or other things there?  what exactly are you trying to set?
[10:45] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, if you can't find anything on www.ubuntuforums.org there is this howto fromt he wine site. http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=4031  although you shouldn't really need to follow their directions for installing wine.  Sinceyou got it via apt-get
[10:45] <GigaClon> albinoblacksh33p, pastbin.com
[10:45] <joelbryan> any idea how large is GNOME? Is it under 100MB?
[10:45] <jmorris1> i think ill reinstall
[10:45] <jmorris1> just to be safe
[10:45] <tristanmike> !tell albinoblacksh33p about pastebin
[10:45] <Mosi_> Kezzer: I just switched over, and it seems pretty harmless. The login screen even gives you the option to log in with Gnome
[10:45] <nickrud> jmorris1, not necessary at all, at all
[10:45] <tristanmike> albinoblacksh33p, see you're pm for info on pastebin
[10:45] <jmorris1> nickrud you sure?
[10:45] <polpak> patrick5222, just the installer
[10:45] <Kezzer> Ah I see
[10:46] <Kezzer> Because I want a SUSE type feel to my desktop
[10:46] <gabbah> _jason, thx i will try that
[10:46] <Kezzer> Just feels more friendly since I'm new to Linux
[10:46] <patrick5222> cheers its now loaded
[10:46] <nickrud> jmorris1, I am very sure
[10:46] <polpak> patrick5222, then right-click , and check the box for executable
[10:46] <Kezzer> Completely new to Linux in fact ;)
[10:46] <patrick5222> has anyone ever got Guild Wars to run on linux
[10:46] <albinoblacksh33p> um
[10:46] <albinoblacksh33p> cmon
[10:46] <Mosi_> Kezzer: Gnome and KDE are different installs, that go in different places, and barely touch eachother. Some Gnome stuff may not work in KDE, but that should be the only harm, and that's easy to fix
[10:46] <Hwyvar> is there an alarmclock in ubunto so I can make my pc make a lot of noise when I have to stop playing around and run for the bus?
[10:46] <gabbah> _jason, do u know if my problem came with ubuntu as it was or did i fuck something up using easyUbuntu?
[10:46] <albinoblacksh33p> all i kneed 2 kno is how to install games with wine...
[10:47] <polpak> st3v3dnd, so you have apache and postgre listening to the outside world? Then why do you want them firewalled?
[10:47] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, i've provided you with more than enough ways of doing it.
[10:47] <Kezzer> cheers Mosi_ , I'll try that out now then
[10:47] <_jason> gabbah: what problem are you referring to?
[10:47] <nickrud> jmorris1, I just pm'd you a working sources ; copy those into the file /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:47] <jb0nd38372> I know guildwars will run under the latest Cedega build 5.1.1
[10:47] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, you may actually have to read a website for directions
[10:47] <jmorris1> nickrud:  what happened was i didnt know what i was doing then reloaded and it said my files were broken and gave a list
[10:47] <gabbah> _jason, the one with the firefox main window icon
[10:47] <albinoblacksh33p> ...
[10:47] <Mosi_> Kezzer: i'm pretty happy with KDE :)
[10:47] <albinoblacksh33p> ok
[10:47] <patrick5222> will it where do i get cedega
[10:47] <GigaClon> albinoblacksh33p, what error are you getting when you try to run it in a terminal
[10:47] <jmorris1> nickrud:  ok ill try that
[10:47] <sfar-ubu> !firefox1.5
[10:47] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[10:47] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i play mp3's then in ubuntu
[10:47] <gabbah> _jason, the one you helped me with just now
[10:47] <_jason> gabbah: the icon is a globe and not the usual firefox icon because of licensing reasons.  That's normal
[10:47] <st3v3dnd> polpak:  I just want them firewalled from most of the world. :) They're not completely public access.
[10:47] <polpak> patrick5222, www.transgaming.com
[10:48] <tristanmike> !tell albinoblacksh33p about restricted
[10:48] <albinoblacksh33p> ???
[10:48] <tristanmike> albinoblacksh33p, see your pm for all that information about mp3 and video codecs
[10:48] <gabbah> _jason, yeah but mine is not a globe, instead it's a standard application icon, square and ugly, doesn't really say anything about what app it is.
[10:48] <albinoblacksh33p> what is pm
[10:48] <_jason> gabbah: oh don't know, if you suspect easyubuntu, inform the devs
[10:48] <polpak> st3v3dnd, fair enough.. I guess the real question is.. How do you imagine a virus will get access to your computer?
[10:49] <tristanmike> albinoblacksh33p, private message
[10:49] <albinoblacksh33p> ??
[10:49] <polpak> albinoblacksh33p, ubotu just sent you a message
[10:49] <nacho_> hi!!
[10:49] <Kezzer> Mosi_,  is GNOME default?
[10:49] <albinoblacksh33p> yep y?
[10:49] <burgermann> First I had a laptop with 512mb ram, PCLinuxOS ate all of it. (Used to run Ubuntu on it too) Now my new laptop has 1024mb, and still all the ram as being used. Howcome? Doesn't Linux just take what it needs or does it reserve it all? :S
[10:49] <polpak> albinoblacksh33p, read it, and it will tell you how to get mp3's working
[10:49] <tristanmike> albinoblacksh33p, that's your private message
[10:49] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, ubotu is a bot that we can use to save us typing so we can have him send you messages with directions.
[10:50] <void^> burgermann: you'd prefer your ram empty and wasted?
[10:50] <polpak> burgermann, mostly the memory is cached
[10:50] <kingspawn> burgermann: the kernel caches and buffers the ram, so it appears used, but is merely "ready for use"
[10:50] <st3v3dnd> polpak:  Email, some random app that gets downloaded. It's not just me using the system. My wife and daughters also use the boxes.
[10:50] <albinoblacksh33p> it has no useful information
[10:50] <chuckyp> burgermann, i've found it will use whats there but most of it is used as cache to speed stuff up.  But i'm not really sure if that is the proper answer for you.
[10:50] <burgermann> void^: I'm an old windows user... that should explain my motivation behind the question :D
[10:50] <polpak> st3v3dnd, but files that are downloaded or saved via email aren't set executable by default
[10:50] <st3v3dnd> polpak: It's mostly just operating off of the better to be safe than sorry premise
[10:50] <Mosi_> kezzer: yes
[10:50] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, you may have to click on the link it provided and follow the directions.
[10:50] <tristanmike> albinoblacksh33p, follow the link for the information
[10:51] <burgermann> kingspawn: thx. I hope that was it :D
[10:51] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, I don't think anyone here isn't going to spoon feed you if you can't read the link.
[10:51] <polpak> st3v3dnd, and the trick of using the wrong file extention doesn't work cause nautilus will warn you if you try to double click a file that has the wrong extention for it's mime type
[10:51] <kingspawn> burgermann: memory handling is really good, as long as youre not running a prog with some crazy memory leak in it. i believe there is a known memory leak in the firefox that comes with breezy
[10:51] <Mr_Morden> how to unpack tar.bz2?
[10:51] <chuckyp> s/isn't/is
[10:52] <kingspawn> Mr_Morden: tar xvfj file
[10:52] <polpak> st3v3dnd, plus, if your wife/daughter/other people using the comp have their own users they won't be able to affect system files. The worst thing they could do is bork their own data
[10:52] <chuckyp> Mr_Morden, tar -xvfj
[10:52] <jmorris1> nickrud im going to reinstall anyways, want to see how the newer installs do anyways for dapper
[10:52] <jmorris1> its not a total loss :)
[10:52] <burgermann> kingspawn, hmmn :s... not good
[10:52] <chuckyp> Mr_Morden, the j <-- is for bz2
[10:52] <st3v3dnd> polpak: Exactly. I'd like to protect them from themselves. :)
[10:52] <jmorris1> after all this isnt my production machine
[10:52] <nickrud> jmorris1, I reinstalled dapper a few times myself. Testing distros are no loss, as you said :)
[10:52] <Mr_Morden> chuckyp: t390:/tmp2# tar xvfj wine*
[10:52] <Mr_Morden> bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file.
[10:52] <Mr_Morden> tar: Child returned status 2
[10:52] <chuckyp> jmorris1, just make sure you update after installing.
[10:52] <patrick5222> how do i install cedega
[10:52] <st3v3dnd> Educating them and all is great, but everyone makes mistakes
[10:52] <jmorris1> nickrud:  yep
[10:53] <chuckyp> Mr_Morden, you can install wine fromt he repos
[10:53] <polpak> st3v3dnd, well, you're more likely to have catastrophic hardware failure than a linux virus. And if in either case the worst that can happen is a particular user loses all their files then you'll need to have a data backup policy in place for either contingency
[10:53] <chuckyp> Mr_Morden, hrm... what about with nautilus can you unpack it with its compression utilities?
[10:53] <jmorris1> nickrud:  in dapper there is no settings in repositories like hoary or breezy
[10:53] <jmorris1> nickrud i wonder why they took it out
[10:53] <Mr_Morden> chuckyp: well, the install from teh repos didn't work
[10:53] <FliesLikeABrick> when I try to run rsync on my laptop (to back my laptop up to a server), I use the option --password-file=/path/to/password-file.scrt but it doesn't work, it still prompts me for a password when connecting to the remote server.  any tips on why? ;)
[10:54] <jmorris1> nickrud in the photo its on the bottom, in dapper there isnt anything
[10:54] <nickrud> jmorris1, they moved a lot of stuff around, I think you can get to it from add applications (I use the console personally for admin stuff)
[10:54] <jmorris1> oh
[10:54] <Mosi_> Mr_Morden: try tab-completing instead of using a star, it's giving you an error about stdin, which suggests it's not getting the destination file correctly
[10:55] <polpak> patrick5222, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega
[10:55] <patrick5222> how do install the cedega_timedemo_installer
[10:55] <Mr_Morden> chuckyp:  http://pastebin.com/618866
[10:55] <polpak> patrick5222, or if you want the free CVS version then http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Cedega+CVS
[10:55] <kingspawn> seems 90% of ubuntu users are spending their time getting windows emulation to work...
[10:56] <student> Does the Pessulus lockdown editor work in Ubuntu 5.10?
[10:56] <Mosi_> Mr_Morden: i think i just remembered why it's giving you that. the first file argument has to be the destination file to save the unpacked files *to*. the *second* filename is the file to get it from
[10:56] <polpak> st3v3dnd, or even beyond viruses or hardware failure, user error will be much more likely to cause irretrievable data loss. In which case a backup will be invaluable also
[10:56] <suyog> how do i install firefox 2.0?
[10:57] <Mosi_> firefox 2.0 is out?
[10:57] <suyog> yes, an alpha version
[10:57] <nickrud> an alpha
[10:57] <polpak> st3v3dnd, so you'd be much better served getting a good backup policy in place than looking for anti-virus software under linux
[10:57] <qmf> hye, is anyone active?
[10:57] <polpak> qmf, lol
[10:57] <suyog> nickrud, did u install it?
[10:57] <roadrunners> ANybody can help I boot from live cd and dont see the folder /var/log/intstaller
[10:58] <st3v3dnd> polpak: Of course, but if I can avoid having to deal with all that by being prepared, then that's one less headache for me. Yes, it's more likely to have hardware issues no, because no  one really cares about Linux(in a virus making sense). As Linux's desktop presence increases it will become a bigger and more likely target
[10:58] <st3v3dnd> polpak: So why not be prepared? Why wait until it's too late?
[10:58] <student> Does the Pessulus lockdown editor work in Ubuntu 5.10?
[10:58] <nickrud> suyog, no, I'm too conservative. But I'm guessing, just unpack it into /opt , cd to /opt/whateverdir , and ./firefox
[10:58] <polpak> st3v3dnd, do you have a backup policy?
[10:58] <st3v3dnd> polpak: Yes, home dirs are backed up nightly
[10:59] <Annirak> I've got kubuntu-desktop installed.  I'm trying to get remote X working.  kdm is listening on udp6:177.  So everything is good to go except that it's listening on ipv6 instead of ipv4.  How can I correct that?
[10:59] <student> Do I have voice?
[10:59] <st3v3dnd> polpak: Entire system less frequently.
[10:59] <polpak> st3v3dnd, so we've already established that the worst thing a user can do is damage their files
[10:59] <nickrud> student, yes, no one currently knows, I guess
[10:59] <polpak> st3v3dnd, since they are unpriveleged
[10:59] <Annirak> student: as far as I can see, no one has +v in this channel
[11:00] <polpak> st3v3dnd, with a good backup policy in place you're covered
[11:00] <Celenk> Excuse me, I'm not sure where to ask this question, but I'm trying to start up my other computer, which has two hard drives, and it seems to only be detecting a cd drive.  It lists two CPUs, which I find strange and haven't noticed before, one being CPU1* and the other CPU2, both as my Intel Pentium 4 2600.  I'm not sure what the problem could be here, when I go into the bios, it seems I can detect my secondary master hd, but th
[11:01] <polpak> st3v3dnd, anyway, there are almost no virii (for any OS) that target and destroy data. Most virii in the wild now try to turn computers into zombies, and that really dosn't work in linux since the users have no permission to modify system files
[11:01] <demon_bot> the 2 CPUs is called "hyperthreading"
[11:01] <patrick5222> once ut2004 is installed wat do i do then
[11:01] <st3v3dnd> polpak: Yes, if I want to do work when it goes to pot, which I'd rather not. :)
[11:02] <Celenk> demon_bot, do you actually have to have two cpus for it though?  Because I  certainly only have one processor
[11:02] <polpak> patrick5222, run it?
[11:02] <patrick5222> how do i do that
[11:02] <chris_> how do install a rpm file
[11:02] <Mosi_> Can anyone recommend an emulator or something similar i can use to run OS X hardware on my box? it is PPC. Anything besides Bochs or Qemu?
[11:02] <demon_bot> Celenk: Are you using SATA HDDs perhaps?  And yeah... its kinda like having 2 CPUs
[11:02] <nickrud> chris_, first, by looking for the equivalent deb file
[11:02] <polpak> patrick5222, type ut2004 in a terminal AFAIK
[11:03] <chris_> it limewire
[11:03] <nickrud> !limewire
[11:03] <ubotu> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
[11:03] <st3v3dnd> polpak: That is of course a good point regarding the transition of viruses. I'm new to the linux world, but isn't it possible that some virus/attack could exploit some bug to gain root even through a regular user acct?
[11:03] <Celenk> demon_bot, no, all IDE
[11:03] <polpak> st3v3dnd, no
[11:03] <patrick5222> wat do i type
[11:03] <chris_> i got the java installed
[11:03] <polpak> st3v3dnd, not unless you sudo
[11:04] <polpak> st3v3dnd, the only way a virus could gain root priveleges is by exploiting a bug in an app that was running as root
[11:04] <nickrud> chris_, then download the non-rpm, and unpack it, as the factoid said
[11:04] <woolbeo> Celenk: Do you have Hyperthreading enabled? if so, that is why you are seeing two cpus
[11:04] <chris_> the only one they have is rpm
[11:04] <qmf> i'm pretty new to linux. i'd dabbled with it before but i installed ubuntu today. it's working great but i can't seem to work out how to change the screen resolution to max. the resolution changer only lists up to 1024*
[11:04] <demon_bot> Celenk: what about the jumpers on the hdds... are they cool?
[11:04] <polpak> st3v3dnd, but none of the apps you use from your desktop run as root. And most of the daemons that you've set up are probably not running as root either
[11:04] <ITSa341> Good evening everyone!
[11:04] <demon_bot> Celenk: Master/slave stuff
[11:05] <Celenk> woolbeo, I do in the bios, but I didn't think I did before.  Anyhow, after turning it off, it still isn't changing the boot process
[11:05] <student> Does the Pessulus lockdown editor work in Ubuntu 5.10?
[11:05] <nickrud> chris_, see the link in the factoid
[11:05] <polpak> !tell qmf about resolution
[11:05] <Celenk> demon_bot, I would think so, as this comp was working last night, but I'll certainly check
[11:05] <chris_> hold on a min
[11:06] <polpak> st3v3dnd, the reason virii are so prevelant on MS windows is because there isn't a clear separation between the normal user and the administrator
[11:06] <chris_> ok nnow what do i do
[11:07] <polpak> patrick5222, you type ut2004
[11:07] <woolbeo> Celenk: what chipset do you have? Intel, VIA, SIS, or Uli? and is your HD hooked up to the mb with pata cable? or SATA cable?
[11:07] <kingspawn> i believe almost everything is allowed to run in kernel space in win32 - or atleast something very close to it
[11:07] <polpak> chris_, did you read the link ubotu sent you?
[11:08] <MagicDk> hi
[11:08] <chris_> i never got a link
[11:08] <ITSa341> chris_  unpack it and run runLime.sh
[11:08] <demon_bot> woolbeo: He said it was IDE... i
[11:08] <MagicDk> how can i config 3D Acceleration?!
[11:08] <polpak> !tell chris_ about limewire
[11:08] <ITSa341> chris  scroll up, ubotu gave the info
[11:08] <patrick5222> polpak: it says bash: ut2004: command not found
[11:08] <polpak> patrick5222, where did you install it to?
[11:08] <kingspawn> patrick5222: what about ./ut2004?
[11:09] <woolbeo> magicDk: what videocard do you have?
[11:09] <Celenk> woolbeo, it's an ASUS p4S800 MB, which I think uses SIS chipset.  Intel Processor.  I've never heard of pata cable?  I thought it was just called IDE.  Certainly not SATA.
[11:09] <chris_> i do not see any link
[11:09] <polpak> chris_, do you see at the bottom of the screen where it says "ubotu" ?
[11:09] <woolbeo> Celenk, pata = paralell ata = standard 40 pin ide
[11:09] <MagicDk>  GL_VERSION:  1.5.3 NVIDIA 76.67
[11:09] <MagicDk>   GL_VENDOR:   NVIDIA Corporation
[11:09] <MagicDk>   GL_RENDERER: GeForce2 MX/AGP/3DNOW!
[11:09] <Mosi_> does anyone know what device file generally points to the primary CD drive?
[11:09] <IYY> my DNS lookups are slow as hell on dapper. my breezy and windows machines don't have this problem. I already disabled ipv6
[11:10] <polpak> chris_, click there. Ubotu sent you a private message telling you how to install limewire
[11:10] <patrick5222> polpak: i installed  it to /home/patrick/ut2004
[11:10] <ITSa341> Has anyone seen anything about the ATI IGP320 chipset in ubuntu yet? fglrx doesn't support it and the ATI drivers from their site don't cover it yet either.
[11:10] <polpak> patrick5222, then type /home/patrick/ut2004/ut2004
[11:10] <kingspawn> IYY: just to be on the safe side, you are sure you have typed in the right dns-addresses, right? i had an "incident" with a wrong ip for the primary dns earlier today
[11:11] <theskunk> so, say im playing a game in a window that uses the mouse, but i want to use the mouse to do something else -- ideally, i'd like to have a quake 3 demo running, and then be able to open other applications -- any suggestions?
[11:11] <kingspawn> Mosi_: /dev/cdrom?
[11:11] <Mosi_> kingspawn: thanks
[11:11] <woolbeo> Celenk, does your bios see the hd?
[11:11] <IYY> kingspawn: you mean of the websites I'm trying to visit? yeah, I tried several, even google.
[11:11] <patrick5222>  Couldn't set video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
[11:11] <patrick5222>     Exiting due to error
[11:11] <MagicDk> woolbeo: can u help me?!
[11:11] <Mr_Morden> what does that mean?  deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/
[11:11] <Mr_Morden> deb-src http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ source/
[11:11] <Mr_Morden> sorry ^^
[11:11] <Celenk> woolbeo, no, not either of them now =\
[11:12] <Mr_Morden> what does this mean:  deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/
[11:12] <Mr_Morden> deb-src http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ source/
[11:12] <Mr_Morden> E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[11:12] <woolbeo> Celenk, well, then linux won't see it if you bios can;t
[11:12] <patrick5222> polpak: Couldn't set video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual    Exiting due to error
[11:12] <Annirak> Where can I disable IPV6_V6ONLY?
[11:12] <polpak> patrick5222, what video card do you have?
[11:13] <Kezzer> Hmm, I've just got kubuntu-desktop downloaded
[11:13] <patrick5222> fx5200
[11:13] <kingspawn> IYY: are your dns-addresses correct in /etc/resolv.conf?
[11:13] <Kezzer> Would I choose gdm or kdm?
[11:13] <Kezzer> is gdm gnome?
[11:13] <patrick5222> polpak: fx5200
[11:13] <polpak> Mr_Morden, it means you have another program open that's trying to get a lock
[11:13] <Kezzer> and kdm KDE?
[11:13] <eggzeck> =o no wonder my update manager wasn't working, I wasn't in the sudoers file :P
[11:13] <carl_m> Guys, i need a really easy live cd for one of my friends, any recommendations?
[11:13] <student> Nobody knows?
[11:13] <kingspawn> Mr_Morden: means you've got synaptic opn, probably
[11:13] <woolbeo> MagicDk, maybee, sorry a little busy right now... What do you mean by 3d acceleration?
[11:13] <_jason> carl_m: ubuntu?
[11:13] <polpak> patrick5222, is that nvidia?
[11:13] <IYY> kingspawn: if they weren't correct, wouldn't my dns fail to work altogether?
[11:13] <patrick5222> polpak: yep
[11:13] <carl_m> _jason, thats not a livecd.
[11:13] <whyami> carl_m: knoppix.
[11:13] <carl_m> whyami, thank you.
[11:14] <_jason> carl_m: ubuntu has a livecd
[11:14] <carl_m> we do.. uh. ok :D
[11:14] <kingspawn> IYY: number one might be failing, and number two usually takes a while to come around
[11:14] <mYoric> hi
[11:14] <polpak> patrick5222, in a terminal can you type "glxinfo | grep direct" (without the quotes) and tell me what it says?
[11:14] <ITSa341> carl_m ubuntu live or linspire live are either one really easy
[11:14] <mYoric> I just got a laptop with a Intel GMA 950.
[11:14] <mYoric> X.org won't run.
[11:14] <Annirak> Kezzer: kdm is kde
[11:14] <whyami> carl_m: ubuntu does have a live CD as well. My feeling is that Knoppix is better as a LiveCD and ubuntu is better to install on the HD, but that is just my opinion.
[11:14] <fiendskull9> will ubuntu reconize a Logitech 350 headset without tweaking?
[11:14] <patrick5222> polpak: direct rendering: No
[11:14] <patrick5222>    OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[11:14] <IYY> kingspawn: maybe you're right. let me try to copy the settings from my other box
[11:14] <demon_bot> mYoric: Whats the error message?
[11:15] <kingspawn> IYY: worth a shot
[11:15] <mYoric> demon_bot, "no device found"
[11:15] <polpak> patrick5222, so you need to install the nvidia driver
[11:15] <polpak> !tell patrick5222 about nvidia
[11:15] <ariel> hey
[11:15] <polpak> patrick5222, read the link ubotu sent you, and it should solve the problem
[11:15] <ariel> if i get the sources of a package using apt-get source
[11:15] <ariel> and then apply a patch on the source
[11:15] <ariel> how do i create a package with these new sources patched?
[11:15] <Kezzer> Mosi_, I've just downloaded kubuntu-desktop, don't suppose you could lend a hand? =)
[11:16] <fiendskull9> ariel, youll have to edit the make file too i beleive, correct me if im wrong.
[11:16] <st3v3dnd> polpak: I understand all of what you're saying, but the question does still stand because I don't like dealing with reloading from backup(if that were to occur). If a free AV app had to be picked, which would it be?
[11:16] <ariel> in other words how do i go from sources to the package
[11:16] <fiendskull9> Will ubuntu reconize my Logitech 350 USB headset?
[11:16] <ariel> fiendskull9, i tried using ./configure
[11:16] <ariel> and it complained about missing packages
[11:16] <demon_bot> mYoric: which device is it looking for?  ive had probs not finding my mouse
[11:17] <_jason> ariel: dpkg-buildpackage is what you want I believe, but I have never done it
[11:17] <oskude> fiendskull9, i got a logitech (forgot what) usb headset and it works like acharm
[11:17] <GENESIS> hello
[11:17] <fiendskull9> ariel, you might not need to configure
[11:17] <ion_> hi everyone...??
[11:17] <ariel> ok thx
[11:17] <fiendskull9> ariel, just try make install
[11:17] <mYoric> demon_bot, on the previous line he's loading driver i810.
[11:17] <ariel> fiendskull9, doesn't worj
[11:17] <ariel> work
[11:17] <Annirak> I need help with remote X sessions like those used in thin clients  I've tried to get set-up right, but I'm still missing something.
[11:17] <fiendskull9> oskude, alright, will ut2004 pick it up?
[11:17] <ion_> anybody can help me ???
[11:17] <ariel> no rule to make target install
[11:17] <mYoric> demon_bot, According to google, this driver should work with i950.
[11:17] <fiendskull9> ariel, well, im not much with compiling, hold on.
[11:17] <IYY> kingspawn: I don't think it helped. do I need to restart?
[11:17] <fiendskull9> !compiling
[11:17] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware
[11:18] <ion_> I have problem with my aMule...
[11:18] <fiendskull9> ubotu tell ariel about !compiling
[11:18] <oskude> fiendskull9, well, atleast alsa is configured to work with the headset, so if ut uses alsa, yes
[11:18] <ion_> I can't download anything...anymore....
[11:19] <fiendskull9> tell ariel about !compiling
[11:19] <sfar-ubu> what to do if memory-usage just gets higher and higher?
[11:19] <fiendskull9> sfar-ubu, ps -ef
[11:19] <fiendskull9> sfar-ubu, kill the proscesses using lots of mem.
[11:19] <demon_bot> mYoric: what does is say on the likes after the error
[11:19] <ion_> was working fine but now just stop...
[11:19] <demon_bot> mYoric: *lines
[11:19] <ion_> any ideas...>>
[11:19] <fiendskull9> !ps -ef
[11:19] <ubotu> fiendskull9: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:19] <fiendskull9> !kill
[11:19] <ubotu> [kill]  a command for getting rid of unwanted processes, usage: kill [-signal]  PID.  Signals are numbers: -15 is general exit, -9 forces quit.  See manual page for more.
[11:19] <sfar-ubu> fiendskull9: well, closing applications does not help.. :\
[11:19] <mYoric> Fatal server error: no screens found.
[11:20] <sfar-ubu> thats the wierd thing :)
[11:20] <fiendskull9> tell sfar-ubu about !kill
[11:20] <fiendskull9> tell fiendskull9 about !kill
[11:20] <sfar-ubu> hehe !tell ?
[11:20] <_jason> fiendskull9: don't use the ! when you tell people
[11:20] <fiendskull9> pl
[11:20] <fiendskull9> thanks
[11:20] <fiendskull9> tell fiendskull9 about kill
[11:20] <kingspawn> IYY: no, shouldn't have to, it looks to resolv.conf every time it needs to
[11:20] <fiendskull9> ubotu tell fiendskull9 about kill
[11:20] <polpak> st3v3dnd, clam AV    appears to be somewhat popular
[11:21] <kingspawn> IYY: does pinging something go at "normal" speed? only web goes slow?
[11:21] <albinoblacksh33p> um
[11:21] <sfar-ubu> !tell sfar-ubu about kill
[11:21] <sfar-ubu> :)
[11:21] <albinoblacksh33p> i got a differ question
[11:21] <fiendskull9> lol
[11:21] <fiendskull9> or you just coulda done !kill yourself
[11:21] <fiendskull9> !logitech
[11:21] <ubotu> I guess logitech is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=65471
[11:22] <IYY> kingspawn: I think the ping itself is fast, but it takes a while before it starts
[11:22] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i install .run?
[11:22] <sfar-ubu> fiendskull9: :)
[11:22] <fiendskull9> sfar-ubu, was i helpful?
[11:22] <mYoric> demon_bot, in addition, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 cannot detect a screen either.
[11:22] <mYoric> Still, trust me, there's one :)
[11:22] <sfar-ubu> fiendskull9: i dont know yet.. its a friend of mine that's having the problem
[11:22] <patrick5222> polpak: when i have to enable it, it say i dont know the command
[11:22] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i install .run
[11:22] <polpak> patrick5222, huh?
[11:23] <albinoblacksh33p> i need to install some NVIDIA drivers
[11:23] <fiendskull9> sfar-ubu, i get the problem when running wine or something
[11:23] <polpak> !nvidia
[11:23] <ubotu> methinks nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[11:23] <albinoblacksh33p> how do i install .run?
[11:23] <chuckyp> albinoblacksh33p, read the wiki please it will answer all your questions
[11:23] <_jason> !nvidia
[11:23] <fiendskull9> sfar-ubu, but since theres so many proscesses under wine, i just do killall wine
[11:23] <fiendskull9> !wiki
[11:23] <patrick5222> polpak: sudo nvidia-glx-config enable doesnt work for me
[11:23] <MagicDk> !cedega
[11:24] <chuckyp> patrick5222, isn't it nvidia-glx-settings
[11:24] <mYoric> !intel
[11:24] <ubotu> mYoric: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:24] <patrick5222> polpak: just comes up with sudo: nvidia-glx-config: command not found
[11:24] <chuckyp> patrick5222, or nvidia-settings
[11:24] <st3v3dnd> Is there a way to determine which processes are using the ethernet adapter, and what type of throughput they're using?
[11:24] <Mosi_> Can anyone tell me how to bind a key to a shell script?
[11:24] <chuckyp> st3v3dnd, netstat
[11:24] <kingspawn> IYY: this seems SO like the problem i had earlier today, with a half-broken resolv.conf
[11:24] <Stormx2> hi gnomefreak!
[11:25] <gnomefreak> hi
[11:25] <grepHELP> I want to use grep to search for a value which is larger than a billion (1,234,567,890) within a text file and output that into a file.  Anyone have a quick response to that?
[11:25] <polpak> patrick5222, did you already install all the needed packages?
[11:25] <chuckyp> grepHELP, what about using find but if you must use grep let me check for a second.
[11:25] <patrick5222> polpak: i installed all the packages which it said
[11:26] <kingspawn> grepHELP: it just searches for strings - billions should be a problem, i think?
[11:26] <Mosi_> grepHELP: why can't you just grep 1234567890 [file]  ?
[11:26] <grepHELP> Either one is good.  The value is in '???,???,???,???'
[11:26] <polpak> patrick5222, type sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings nvidia-glx
[11:26] <woolbeo> bbl
[11:26] <grepHELP> Let me check again. Hold.
[11:26] <afernandez> hi
[11:26] <patrick5222> polpak: now its doin something
[11:27] <sfar-ubu> :)
[11:27] <sfar-ubu> its downloading drivers for your graphics card
[11:27] <st3v3dnd> chuckyp: Thanks. Any interactive utilities to continually show usage, or is there a switch for that on netstat?
[11:27] <polpak> patrick5222, once it's done type uname -r ant tell me what it says
[11:27] <mYoric> Okay, got a "No devices detected"/"no screens found" on my brand new Dell laptop.
[11:27] <mYoric> Any idea ?
[11:27] <noone> Helloo
[11:28] <patrick5222> polpak: ok
[11:28] <Jemt> Greets. Firefox crashed... again.. I'm tired of restarting the computer because Firefox locks my profile. Is there some sort of work around? I have tried 'killall firefox' - but my profile is still locked and I get this error when I try to start it again: Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system
[11:28] <grepHELP> When I grep '???,???,???,???' (Wildcards with commas) I have no output.
[11:28] <SilentPenguin> hello, is there any way to Voice chat in GAIM?>?>
[11:28] <grepHELP> Nor if I just search for '???'
[11:28] <mYoric> Jemt, iirc, the lock is in .mozilla/firefox.
[11:28] <reda_ea> killall firefox-bin
[11:28] <patrick5222> polpak: so i type "uname -r" in
[11:28] <polpak> Jemt, did you try killall -9 firefox ?
[11:28] <polpak> patrick5222, yes
[11:28] <w000t> evening, what will dapper ship, madwifi-old or madwifi-ng?
[11:29] <chuckyp> st3v3dnd, i'm sure if you hunt around in synaptic there are utilities for monitoring the network card.
[11:29] <mYoric> No idea about that XOrg problem of mine ?
[11:29] <noone> Can  use  live  cd   dapper drake and  update it  or save changes  to  hard disk  with out  install it in hard disk
[11:29] <Jemt> mYoric: I know. But I'm not going to remove my profile directory each time Firefox crashes (which is more often then IE :-S)
[11:29] <noone> ?
[11:29] <st3v3dnd> chuckyp: Thanks, I'll check it out.
[11:29] <Jemt> polpak: I'll give it a try. What does it do?
[11:29] <mYoric> Jemt, :)
[11:29] <polpak> st3v3dnd, I tend to use the gnome-panel system monitor app
[11:29] <reda_ea> Jemt try killall firefox-bin
[11:29] <polpak> Jemt, kills it untill it dies
[11:29] <ompaul> w000t, ask in #ubuntu+1
[11:29] <reda_ea> or killall -s 9 firefox-bin
[11:29] <Mosi_> st3v3dnd: what are you trying to do? will Ethereal work?
[11:29] <polpak> Jemt, kill just sends sig TERM which can be ignored
[11:30] <polpak> Jemt, kilall -9 cannot be ignored
[11:30] <polpak> Jemt, err killall -9 rather
[11:30] <Jemt> Ah, great. Actually 'killall firefox-bin' was enough. But thanks for the -9 tip :)
[11:30] <afernandez> i have a problem with nvidia-glx package, two days ago it's works correctly yesterday i upgrade nvidia-glx then when i restart my pc the xorg show me error with vt7, a few minutes ago i upgrade again nvidia-glx  but the error continues .... what i can do?
[11:30] <Jemt> Well, thanks all. Back to work :)
[11:30] <noone> ?
[11:30] <noone> Can  use  live  cd   dapper drake and  update it  or save changes  to  hard disk  with out  install it in hard disk
[11:30] <w000t> k sry
[11:32] <gabbah> en dum frga kanske men kan man inte ska efter filer i Nautilus?
[11:32] <st3v3dnd> Mosi_: Just informational stuff really. Seeing which apps are using what kind of bandwidth and such. I don't know that ethereal will work. Does it tell you the process that generated the traffic?
[11:32] <Mosi_> gabbah: de?
[11:32] <gabbah> oops wrong channel
[11:32] <Mosi_> st3v3dnd: it tells you the source port and the protocol, but that would take a bit of work to figure out
[11:33] <gabbah> i was asking if you can't search for files in Nautilus?
[11:33] <chris_> ok i thought i had java installed
[11:33] <polpak> st3v3dnd, you can just set up your firewall (iptables) to log outbound packets
[11:33] <patrick5222> polpak: i typed in uname -r  and came up  2.6.12-10-386
[11:33] <chris_> but i just have it unpack
[11:33] <polpak> st3v3dnd, but that will get pretty massive after a while
[11:33] <Phazeman> i'm trying to run the ddclient daemon but it seems like not running at all and i can't get my dns's updated. no log entrys though the logging option is turned on in the conf file. can someone please help ?
[11:34] <polpak> patrick5222, ok, type sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-386
[11:34] <obli> what do I do with .bin install files?
[11:34] <st3v3dnd> polpak: Yeah, I may just end up using ethereal on an as needed basis.
[11:35] <patrick5222> polpak: thats now done what now
[11:35] <chris_> i need help wit java
[11:35] <polpak> patrick5222, now try sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[11:35] <eqqman> wish i am not being fooling here. if anyone would know how to make fx5700 "TV" function working, please tell me. thanks a lot
[11:36] <obli> .bin files, how do I use them, anyone?
[11:36] <polpak> obli, run them?
[11:36] <ompaul> obli, depeds extentions don't count for anything on Linux
[11:36] <obli> I downloaded realplayer, came as a bin file =\
[11:36] <ompaul> obli, what is it you have
[11:37] <ompaul> sh *.bin its one ugly program
[11:37] <chris_> i need help gettting java installed i have been at this for 2 weeks
[11:37] <away_man> trying to join breezy to win2k Active Directory
[11:37] <away_man> kinit works fine
[11:37] <sfar-ubu> ompaul: how do you differ bins from bins then? :)
[11:38] <obli> yeah, I need to play an rm file, though =(
[11:38] <away_man> wbinfo works fine
[11:38] <engla> obli: "file file.bin" will try to tell you what it is inside
[11:38] <vook> anyone know how I can get command line "cdplay" to play off of /dev/hdd?  It says no disc, but there is a disc, and it is /dev/hdd.  I'm guessing gnome and/or dbus/udev is involved.
[11:38] <away_man> but can't log in with AD accounts
[11:38] <away_man> anyone done this?
[11:38] <obli> LSB executable
[11:38] <chris_> how do i get my font bigger in here
[11:38] <ompaul> chris_, if it has taken you that long and your running 5.10 I would suggest that you head over to #easyubuntu they might be able to get you up and running faster than that
[11:39] <away_man> I think this is my problem: (pam_unix) could not identify user (from getpwnam(usrname))
[11:39] <st3v3dnd> polpak, Mosi_, chuckyp, thanks guys.
[11:39] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, I take it you got the "file Filename" thing there a moment ago
[11:39] <patrick5222> polpak: it worked thank you very much
[11:39] <sfar-ubu> ompaul: yep :)
[11:40] <gabbah> _jason,  i did as you suggested (http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/tips#app_icon), but the icon is STILL the same general purpose application icon... :(
[11:40] <away_man> I used the Winbind Active Directory setup from the wiki
[11:40] <MotorCityMadMan> It's very frustrating that i can't get my lexmark printers working with ubuntu / i'm just venting
[11:40] <ctWO> hello!, i installed fglrx-control and xorg-driver-fglrx from rapsodies (dapper) and configured the xorg (driver->fglrx) after restarting xserver, it shows mesa, why?
[11:40] <away_man> but no luck
[11:40] <chris_> ok i got one more ?
[11:41] <sfar-ubu> ompaul: how do you know if its "sh", "run" or "./Filename" to use? :)
[11:41] <chris_> i am in the kde desktop how do i get my time out of milt. time
[11:41] <polpak> patrick5222, got ut2004 working too?
[11:41] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, given the question I take it you already know the answer
[11:42] <sfar-ubu> ompaul:  hehe, actually not :)
[11:43] <MrRio> where can i look at the firefox homepage to be included in dapper?
[11:43] <JKLeung> so I need some help here :D
[11:43] <justin_randell> hi all, i'm looking for the best way to automate taking Ubuntu security notices and putting them in a db
[11:43] <justin_randell> i've looked here: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ and i'm wondering if there is a feed anywhere else?
[11:43] <justin_randell> or is the best way to parse the web page or mailing list?
[11:43] <MrRio> JKLeung: what do you need help with?
[11:43] <batman> does anyone know why my wifi adapter is connecting to localhost but yet it detects my access point its a 3com 3crshpw796 ubuntu detected it automatically
[11:43] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, man file will explain it better than I could in irc - it reads the file and looks for clues
[11:43] <sfar-ubu> ompaul: thanks for the tip
[11:44] <JKLeung> tried to install ubuntu and it hangs on the first screen where it says "trying to enable the frame buffer" and now it left an line in my monitor
[11:44] <chuckyp> justin_randell, there are mailing lists for security on ubuntu let me find the link
[11:44] <chris_> is the kde desktop better than gnome
[11:44] <oskude> !better
[11:44] <ubotu> Better for what? Better for whom? Why don't you try them all, then decide for yourself?
[11:44] <Steve^> in some ways
[11:44] <chuckyp> justin_randell, https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-security-announce
[11:44] <polpak> sfar-ubu, generally if you want to run some thing (regardless if it's a sh script, or a binary) you can just chmod +x the file and then just type the full path for the file and it'll run
[11:44] <justin_randell> chuckyp: thanks, already subscribed
[11:44] <patrick5222> polpak: yep ut2004 working online perfect better than windows
[11:45] <polpak> patrick5222, =)
[11:45] <away_man> reapeat:  trying to login to Breezy with Active Directory (W2k) account, using Winbind instructions from the Wiki.  computer joined fine, kinit works, but can't login.  Any help?
[11:45] <Steve^> how do you get ut2004 for linux?
[11:45] <joe__> /test
[11:45] <polpak> Steve^, run the installer off the cd?
[11:45] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, type >>strings /bin/ls | less << then press CTRL+C
[11:45] <JKLeung> anyone know anything about it?
[11:45] <justin_randell> was just wondering if there's a feed of some type?
[11:45] <Steve^> polpak, the same CD as the windows version?
[11:45] <polpak> Steve^, yeah
[11:45] <Steve^> ah, cool
[11:45] <chuckyp> Steve^, unreal is developed both in windows and linux.  On your installation cd should be a linux version if not you can always download from their site.
[11:46] <polpak> Steve^, there's a linux installer .sh file
[11:46] <MrRio> JKLeung: 'left a line'?
[11:46] <JKLeung> tried to install ubuntu and it hangs on the first screen where it says "trying to enable the frame buffer" and now it left an line in my monitor
[11:46] <Steve^> they should publicise that more
[11:46] <Joetheodd> Good to be home! =)
[11:46] <JKLeung> yeap MrRio
[11:46] <JKLeung> a vertical green line
[11:46] <MrRio> JKLeung: lcd screen?
[11:46] <JKLeung> yeap
[11:46] <MrRio> JKLeung: what kind of machine is this? a laptop?
[11:46] <sfar-ubu> ompaul: heh, what was that?
[11:46] <Joetheodd> !breezy
[11:46] <ubotu> The guide to upgrading to breezy (5.10) is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade
[11:46] <JKLeung> yes
[11:47] <Steve^> gameplay.com says just windows in the specs
[11:47] <MrRio> JKLeung: more info please ;) dell inspiron?
[11:47] <pchapman> I am having trouble running the install-css.sh script:  http://papernapkin.org/pastebin/app/view/560
[11:47] <Yoric> Hi again.
[11:47] <Yoric> XOrg doesn't seem to like my Intel 950 graphics card.
[11:47] <polpak> Steve^, also you can play any of the quake games or doom3 under linux
[11:47] <Yoric> Any suggestion ?
[11:47] <batman> does anyone know why my wifi adapter is connecting to localhost but yet it detects my access point its a 3com 3crshpw796 ubuntu detected it automatically
[11:47] <JKLeung> I don't even know the manufacter since it's not from a famous like dell or something like that
[11:47] <JKLeung> stamp
[11:47] <MrRio> pchapman: you could try automatix or google for a breezy package of libdvdcss2
[11:47] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, the fact when you type >>file /bin/ls<< a clue that was in that text allows file to tell you the result for the start of this line
[11:48] <polpak> Steve^, natively I mean
[11:48] <pchapman> MrRio, thanks
[11:48] <oskude> !automatix
[11:48] <ubotu> automatix is, like, 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.
[11:48] <Steve^> polpak, does this include unreal tournament (the original)?
[11:48] <away_man> guess there's no AD help here at the moment; I'll try back later.  5:00 time!
[11:48] <away_man> quit
[11:48] <oskude> !easyubuntu
[11:48] <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
[11:48] <polpak> Steve^, I dunno about the original, but I think so..
[11:48] <MrRio> JKLeung: what is the display adapter listed as under windows if you have it?
[11:48] <sfar-ubu> ompaul: ah, i see
[11:48] <JKLeung> sis630/730 MrRio
[11:49] <MotorCityMadMan> when i installed ubuntu hda3 and hda4 is showing on the desk-top / win partitions / how do i open them or at lest get them off the desk-top ? (cannot move them to trash)
[11:49] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, inside most scripts you find >>#!/path/program to interpert the script<< so it can work out if it is a shell script perl or whatever
[11:49] <IEATPOO_MMM_SHIT> mmm
[11:49] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, if a file has a +x value in the mode (ls -la)
[11:49] <IEATPOO_MMM_SHIT> hi
[11:50] <moox> hi there. Can someone try to call me using ekiga please ? moxfulder@ekiga.net
[11:50] <MrRio> moox, i have no microphone, but ill tell you if i can hear you if thats any good?
[11:50] <moox> MrRio: Ok
[11:50] <aSmig> Anyone have a link to hints on setting up Dual Display?
[11:50] <JKLeung> MrRio: sis630/730
[11:51] <moox> MrRio: what is your sip id ?
[11:51] <Sophant> hey
[11:51] <IdleOne> hello
[11:51] <Sophant> i am having sound ishues
[11:51] <Sophant> *issues
[11:52] <Sophant> if i have multiple programs open, it seems that only one can play sound
[11:52] <Sophant> example: firefox and gaim
[11:52] <WildPenguin> MotorCityMadMan, gconf-editor then go to /apps/nautilus/desktop and uncheck "volumes visible"
[11:52] <SeRcH> hi
[11:53] <SeRcH> Anione can help me?
[11:53] <IdleOne> !anyone
[11:53] <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>
[11:53] <SeRcH> I want to connect to other server :)
[11:53] <SeRcH> sorry, anyone lol
[11:53] <SeRcH> my first day using bitchx
[11:53] <Sophant> firefox will play sounds until i open gaim, then only one will play sounds
[11:53] <IdleOne> SeRcH, what other server?
[11:53] <SeRcH> irc.irc-hispano.org
[11:53] <polpak> SeRcH, please be more specific.. How are you trying to connect, to what server, and what is the error you get?
[11:53] <Sophant> its kind of a toss up as to which one will work
[11:54] <SeRcH> my error is that i'm using bitchx
[11:54] <IdleOne> SeRcH, type /server irc.irc-hispano.org or /connect irc.irc-hispano.org
[11:54] <SeRcH> thx IdleOne  :)
[11:54] <IdleOne> no problem
[11:54] <Sophant> anyone have any suggestions?
[11:54] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, so if the file has the executable bit set it will work with ./ otherwise perl foo.pl or sh file.sh - note the extentions are conventions and the shell does not have a convention to deal with them (but gnome / kde kind of do)
[11:54] <ipfaff> hi all
[11:54] <chuckyp> Sophant, you can disable the sound system
[11:55] <Sophant> how? would that fix my problem?
[11:55] <chuckyp> Sophant, click system>preferences>sound uncheck system sounds
[11:55] <ipfaff> Anyone know how to get the mic working in Counter-Strike (cedega)
[11:55] <bleaked> if one has an nvidia card..is it worth using the proprietary driver from nvidia..or will vesa or nv do just fine?    (like, are there features, speed/rendering improvements, etc)
[11:55] <IceTox> is there any easy way of making changes to the resolution of the screen? Like I want a bigger resolution.
[11:55] <chuckyp> ipfaff, try #cedega
[11:55] <ipfaff> i am using cedega
[11:55] <IdleOne> !tell IceTox about fixres
[11:55] <busybreathing> he means chanel
[11:56] <ipfaff> can't mess with ALSA drivers

[11:56] <rob138> hi, i have installed windows on my old (secondary) ubuntu harddrive, and when grub loads from the primary ubuntu harddrive, it shows the old ubuntu instead of windows, how do i change it so it sees the windows installation instead of the old ubuntu?
[11:56] <_jason> IceTox: system > preferences > screen resolution first, if it isn't listed there, see !fixres

[11:56] <batman> does anyone know why my wifi adapter is connecting to localhost but yet it detects my access point its a 3com 3crshpw796 ubuntu detected it automatically
[11:56] <k1n[G] m4n> hello
[11:57] <IdleOne> heya k1n[G] m4n
[11:57] <rfmonk> We cannot detect your computer's operating system (most likely because you have JavaScript disabled).
[11:57] <sfar-ubu> ompaul: okay. thanks for explaining :)
[11:57] <IceTox> Hoew can I check if I'm using Xorg or XFree86?
[11:57] <JKLeung> MrRio: are you there?
[11:57] <IceTox> *how
[11:57] <rfmonk> i need to get pointed in the right direction
[11:57] <k1n[G] m4n> I'm going to install Ubunto on my old PC and make it a server
[11:58] <sfar-ubu> ompaul: there is so much to learn
[11:58] <rfmonk> does quicktime work on ubuntu
[11:58] <rfmonk> ?
[11:58] <polpak> rfmonk, I think there is a firefox plugin to fake your user agent
[11:58] <MrRio> JKLeung: hey, sorry, don really know much about sis graphics
[11:58] <Sophant> chuckyp,s ounds for events or  enable sound server startup
[11:58] <polpak> !quicktime
[11:58] <ubotu> from memory, quicktime is read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats for information on quicktime support or just install the "libquicktime1" package.
[11:58] <k1n[G] m4n> which distro do I need and which software packages are good for File Server, Web Server, and Game Server stuff
[11:58] <IdleOne> k1n[G] m4n, if you feel comfortable without a GUI go for it
[11:58] <rfmonk> ok because i do have the jre installed
[11:58] <ipfaff> Does anyone know how to install and configure DC++ for Ubuntu?
[11:58] <batman> k1n[G] m4n, i use ubuntu gnome desktop for ftp and web server :P
[11:59] <ompaul> sfar-ubu, little steps make for an easy journey, running fast you miss stuff
[11:59] <rfmonk> thanks polpak, will check it out...
