[12:00] <ifz> deternal, hey?
[12:00] <dunand> ok... bye
[12:00] <Cyorxamp> I have gnokii installed (a driver for nokia phones) and I have gnocky installed (a data suite front end for gnokii) and I have my phone plugged into usb.... lsusb can see it and gnocky is asking for a /dev/ location - I have tried sda but it doesnt exist - can anyone help?
[12:00] <dunand> sorry
[12:00] <IdleOne> dunand, finish reading what I said :P
[12:00] <New2Ubun2> ok i have tried it and I still get this error "mozilla-chatzilla:
[12:00] <New2Ubun2>   Depends: mozilla-browser (=2:1.7.12-0ubuntu2) but 2:1.7.12-1ubuntu1 is to be installed"
[12:00] <Cyorxamp> Ban me and I delete linux of 4 pc's I swear!
[12:00] <Cyorxamp> This is it
[12:00] <New2Ubun2> my source list in completely up to date
[12:00] <ompaul> haha
[12:00] <IdleOne> Cyorxamp, lmao
[12:00] <Cyorxamp> lol
[12:01] <New2Ubun2> but it says I have ubuntu1 not ubuntu2
[12:01] <ifz> deternal, no mail it to me plz
[12:01] <Cyorxamp> I need to know linux can work for me
[12:01] <h0nus> ^^^
[12:01] <deternal> ok, I need your address
[12:01] <ompaul> Cyorxamp, dont you abuse this channel
[12:01] <New2Ubun2> what is most annoying is that the package is LISTED in synaptic yet not installable
[12:01] <Cyorxamp> This channel is madness!
[12:01] <Cyorxamp> At least can we use #ubuntu-hardware
[12:01] <Arafangion> Cyorxamp: Agreed.
[12:01] <Cyorxamp> it's deserted!
[12:01] <ifz> deternal, c in private
[12:01] <corvax> do you have all repos?
[12:01] <dli> New2Ubun2, it should not happen for stable releases
[12:01] <Cyorxamp> All hardware-ubuntu related questions to #ubuntu-hardware
[12:01] <corvax> and dependencies?
[12:01] <Cyorxamp> surely that makes some sense!
[12:02] <New2Ubun2> dli I did a fresh install off a 5.10 disc
[12:02] <New2Ubun2> I opened up universe and multiverse
[12:02] <ompaul> Cyorxamp, if someone had an answer for you they would give it to you, waith at least 10 mins before you ask that question again
[12:02] <New2Ubun2> then did a apt-get udate apt-get upgrade
[12:02] <IdleOne> Cyorxamp, Linux requires patience which sadly you dont seem to have much of but you will learn with age
[12:02] <New2Ubun2> then I tried to install the mozilla suite
[12:02] <New2Ubun2> and it says I have the wrong ubuntu
[12:02] <Cyorxamp> Linux needs a freaking miracle
[12:02] <deternal> ifz,  omg, I forgot to register
[12:03] <cafuego> !info mozilla
[12:03] <ubotu> mozilla: (The Mozilla Internet application suite - meta package), section universe/web, is optional. Version: 2:1.7.12-0ubuntu2 (breezy), Packaged size: 1 kB, Installed size: 24 kB
[12:03] <dli> Cyorxamp, it's off topic here :(
[12:03] <corvax> cyorxamp try a channel that is dedicate to that project or somthing similar
[12:03] <deternal> thats what you didn't see my msgs
[12:03] <cafuego> Why not install that?
[12:03] <lopzided> linux _is_ a freaking miracle
[12:03] <Cyorxamp> lopzided, HA!
[12:03] <deternal> ifz, you need to register your nick to send me msgs too
[12:03] <corvax> this is for general ubuntu help
[12:03] <h0nus> are there more focused rooms?
[12:04] <h0nus> like one for sound lol
[12:04] <Cyorxamp> yes but hardly anyone uses them
[12:04] <ifz> deternal, which is zone *.se
[12:04] <Cyorxamp> #ubuntu-hardware
[12:04] <Cyorxamp> please ompaul can you put that in topic?
[12:04] <cafuego> ifz: CET
[12:04] <IdleOne> !tell Cyorxamp about enter
[12:04] <IdleOne> !tell Cyorxamp about patience
[12:04] <deternal> ifz, sweden
[12:04] <New2Ubun2> if you were able to install it
[12:04] <Cyorxamp> !tell IdleOne about attitude
[12:04] <ompaul> Cyorxamp, stop being distruptive - or I will force you to shut up for 10 minutes
[12:04] <deternal> ifz, north europe
[12:05] <corvax> linux is AND isnt a tinkerers os
[12:05] <New2Ubun2> could you private message me your repository list?
[12:05] <Cyorxamp> ompaul, can't you just say yes or no?
[12:05] <Cyorxamp> jeez!
[12:05] <ifz> deternal, ok thx
[12:05] <smoggy_city> hiya. I'm a newbie and I've just started poking around Ubuntu land. I am having trouble finding information on installing Ubuntu on a G4 tower. I would like to have both Ubuntu *and* OS X installed. I have 2 HDs 20 GB each and I'm running 10.4.4 - Am I dreaming in colour?
[12:05] <deternal> ifz, np :)
[12:05] <zanga> who can help me with amrok ??
[12:05] <IdleOne> Cyorxamp, Im not the one crying about how hard linux is to use and saying that linux isnt any good cuz you cant upload sum stupid ringtone to your cheap phone :P
[12:05] <ompaul> IdleOne, too late
[12:05] <patty5222> how do i load themes
[12:06] <IdleOne> ompaul, :P
[12:06] <ifz> deternal, how i can register?
[12:06] <zanga> man
[12:06] <zanga> help
[12:06] <zanga> :)
[12:06] <corvax> remeber when you had to enter sectors etc  to install linux on hd
[12:06] <deternal> smoggy_city, if the ubuntu setup is like on x86 and the boot manager supports it, you just need to install and the installer will take care of it
[12:06] <corvax> and ppl bitch now for stupid things
[12:06] <deternal> ifz, check server messages
[12:06] <patty5222> is there a version of DapperUbuntuWidgetTheme
[12:07] <jetscreamer> /msg nickserv help register
[12:07] <patty5222> is there a version of DapperUbuntuWidgetTheme out yet for using
[12:07] <cafuego> corvax: It's because people in general are getting more stupid.
[12:07] <IdleOne> patty5222, join #ubuntu+1 for help with Dapper :) and coffee!
[12:07] <h0nus> can anyone direct me to a room where I can find help getting sound to work? i have issues =)
[12:07] <crimsun> h0nus: just ask.
[12:07] <corvax> smoggy there is a way to resize hfs
[12:07] <sfar-ubu> is there a way in terminal to get <current location>?.. Like ~ is /home/username/ ?
[12:07] <ifz> nickserv help register
[12:07] <h0nus> i have, but nothing is working

[12:08] <h0nus> 2-3 years old, using soundblaster audigy 2 sound card
[12:08] <crimsun> h0nus: then I need pastebinned: lspci -v && lspci -nv && cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer -c0
[12:08] <Matthewv> sfar-ubu, a '.' the dot character, will refer to your current location..
[12:08] <corvax> using gparted
[12:08] <ifz> oops
[12:08] <fiendskull9> corvax, are you resizing/making/deleting partitions?
[12:09] <ompaul> h0nus, start alsamixer and you will most likely find out that something is muted
[12:09] <ompaul> h0nus, or kmix if your on kde
[12:09] <corvax> smoggy city was asking about dual booting his g4
[12:09] <zanga> In order to compile and install amaroK on your system, type the following in the
[12:09] <zanga> base directory of the amaroK distribution: were is the base distribution ?
[12:09] <sfar-ubu> thank you Matthewv (and cafuego too:)
[12:09] <corvax> asking if its possible
[12:09] <cafuego> corvax: it certainly is.
[12:09] <corvax> he has 2 hd's so no resizing is needed tho
[12:09] <fiendskull9> does anyone know of a loop maker like Acid Pro or fruity loops?
[12:10] <h0nus> i'm on gnome
[12:10] <fiendskull9> People

[12:10] <cafuego> New2Ubun2: 'sudo apt-get install mozilla'
[12:10] <h0nus> crimsun, you want all that pasted here?
[12:10] <fiendskull9> h0nus, if its for kde, itll work on gnome too
[12:10] <crimsun> h0nus: _pastebin_, not here
[12:10] <napkin> meow :)
[12:10] <ompaul> h0nus, non of the little boxes down the bottom of the screen are black ?
[12:10] <New2Ubun2> does work
[12:10] <IdleOne> h0nus, please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for large amounts of text ( anything over 2 lines is a good idea )
[12:11] <New2Ubun2> it says there are unresolvable dependencies
[12:11] <h0nus> crimsun, forgive me, i'm new
[12:11] <New2Ubun2> I can get the mozilla browser
[12:11] <cafuego> corvax: He can just boot the install cd
[12:11] <New2Ubun2> the the suite complains that have "ubuntu1 but ubuntu2 is needed
[12:11] <cafuego> New2Ubun2: run 'sudo apt-get update' first

[12:13] <IdleOne> heya Arrick
[12:13] <American> hey all
[12:13] <Arrick> I just installed ubuntu onto my other PC and was wondering if anyone could help me get it running?
[12:13] <Matthewv> zanga: are you on gnome or kde??
[12:13] <IdleOne> Arrick, whats up?
[12:13] <fiendskull9> Attention! if anyone is looking for a great media player replacement, alot like itunes, try amarok! Enable the multiverse reposititores, if you dont know how, just type !multiverse. then in a terminal type sudo apt-get install amarok. once done, launch with "amarok". its alot like itunes, and better than xmms (imo).
[12:13] <corvax> cafuego after all that geting my bcm43xx working the wife knocked the laptop foo the counter and ruined the screen
[12:13] <smoggy_city> corvax: mostly. I'm not sure I want to change my hfs. Couldn't I just install Ubuntu on one HD and OSX on the other?
[12:13] <corvax> lol
[12:13] <matthes> hello ppl
[12:13] <Alex_C> Hey
[12:13] <zanga> Matthew: what is gonome and kde ??
[12:13] <corvax> yes smoggy
[12:13] <h0nus> crim
[12:14] <fiendskull9> zanga, i can help you!
[12:14] <Alex_C> Quick Question: How do you delete a folder via Terminal?
[12:14] <Arrick> it seems to load and start everything and then the computer sits there running, and the monitor goes blan
[12:14] <matthes> im bored
[12:14] <Arrick> blank
[12:14] <fiendskull9> zanga, are you wanting amarok?
[12:14] <Matthewv> zanga: are you using ubuntu or kubuntu??
[12:14] <h0nus> crimsun, do i put your name in at top?
[12:14] <smoggy_city> corvax: is there a reason why I would rather try fitting both onto one HD?
[12:14] <fiendskull9> Matthewv, hes knew to nix, thatll only confuse him.
[12:14] <IdleOne> h0nus, your name
[12:14] <corvax> no not really
[12:14] <zanga> Mattheww: unbuntu
[12:14] <smoggy_city> hmmmmmm...
[12:15] <fiendskull9> zanga, do you have aim or msn?
[12:15] <Matthewv> fiendskull9, but installing amorok on ubuntu means download about 40 MB of kde libs etc to go with it...
[12:15] <h0nus> crimsun, ok it's pastebinned
[12:15] <ScottishPig> I get a read error while trying to unzip a zip off of a DVD.
[12:15] <IdleOne> h0nus, after sending paste the url in here
[12:15] <Alex_C> How do you delete a Folder Via Terminal?
[12:15] <corvax> some people just like to use one hd as simply storage space  for files that can be accessed
[12:15] <Phazeman> does anybody know for some alternative to chkconfig from mandriva in kubuntu/ubuntu ?
[12:15] <fiendskull9> Matthewv, your right.
[12:15] <h0nus> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10728
[12:15] <corvax> but having 2 hd's makes it easy for you
[12:15] <ScottishPig> Alex_C: rm -rf <foldername>   but use sparingly.
[12:15] <fiendskull9> Matthewv, but i dont like xmms, because it takes all the sound on alsa
[12:15] <deternal> Alex_C, rm -Rfv /folder/path
[12:15] <zanga> Mattheww: aim
[12:15] <Xenguy> Alex_C: if empty, rmdir (or if not, rm -rf dirname) careful
[12:15] <fiendskull9> zanga, whats your sn?
[12:16] <Alex_C> I see, thanks
[12:16] <Matthewv> fiendskull9, and there are also media players preinstalled on both ubuntu and kubuntu... totem and rhythmbox, or amarok and kaffeine..
[12:16] <zanga> alexlupu_703
[12:16] <venox> hey. anyone here uses amule over ubuntu? does it have amuleweb support?
[12:16] <zanga> friendskull9: alexlupu_703 is my sn
[12:17] <fiendskull9> zanga, are you signed on right now?
[12:17] <zanga> friendskull: yes
[12:17] <codecaine> hey all i installed onto a system with no network card,  i just installed a new NIC, how do i get the system to recognize it?
[12:17] <Arrick> IdleOne: If it would help, I had Windows XP Pro on the system, and then installed over the top of it, would that cause me some problems?
[12:17] <codecaine> is there a way to run a hardware scan similar to what kudzu does in redhat/fedora?
[12:17] <crimsun> h0nus: you need a space between "cat" and "/proc/asound/cards"
[12:17] <American> I can't unzip any files on a DVD even though ls -l shows them as readable. Has anyone seen this?
[12:17] <corvax> i just read an article about a professor who switched all the graphic workstation macs in his classes to Foss /ubuntu
[12:17] <New2Ubun2> yay netinstaller
[12:17] <fiendskull9> zanga, its FIENDskull, lol.
[12:18] <zanga> :)))
[12:18] <IdleOne> Arrick, you may need to fix grub
[12:18] <IdleOne> !tell Arrick about grub
[12:18] <zanga> fiendskull9: it`s kind of late
[12:18] <Xenguy> Amerikan: I assume the DVD is read-only media then  ?
[12:18] <fiendskull9> zanga, is alexlupu_703 your AIM sn?
[12:18] <American> no
[12:18] <American> it's a game install CD
[12:18] <zanga> fiendskull9:yes it is
[12:19] <American> *DVD
[12:19] <codecaine> Xen, you must be trying to unzip on the DVD itself which you can't
[12:19] <corvax> http://business.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=06/03/09/2238246&from=rss
[12:19] <Arrick> IdleOne: Thanks
[12:19] <fiendskull9> zanga, can you instant message atleebass, thats mine.
[12:19] <IdleOne> Arrick, no problem
[12:19] <Xenguy> codecaine: not me, American
[12:19] <Xenguy> ^^
[12:19] <codecaine> agh
[12:19] <h0nus> crimsun, i'll fix and repaste
[12:19] <ScottishPig> No. He's changed directories. In /home/whatever he does unzip /media/whatever/zip.zip and it still gives errors.
[12:19] <American> Xenguy, what do I do then?
[12:20] <corvax> i always wipe a hard drive that had windows on it good
[12:20] <crimsun> h0nus: sorry, connection issues. Did you update your pastebin?
[12:20] <h0nus> crimsun, doing that now
[12:20] <corvax> with dban
[12:20] <chrisbudden14> nk baa
[12:20] <chrisbudden14> hi again
[12:20] <codecaine> Has anyone in here installed a new NIC on a deb box?  I don't know the procedures of getting the card functional.
[12:21] <codecaine> How do i get ubuntu to see it?
[12:21] <Xenguy> American: I'm not sure in this case (I'm also a bit tired and burnt out ATM)
[12:21] <graveson> i created a new reiser partition using gparted ,but when trying to create folders using nautilus the create folder is greyed out ?
[12:21] <chrisbudden14> doesnt it just come up in system-admin-networking
[12:21] <zanga> fiendskull9: i cant
[12:21] <neo911> hi i've installed totem xine on my comp and used to be able to listen to streaming radio stns just fine.  now it's stopped working would anyone know what to do? i tried to reinstall but say there's no plug-in avail whenever i try to connect to a streaming radio server.  thx
[12:21] <codecaine> chris, it's a server install not gui based
[12:21] <fiendskull9> zanga, why not?
[12:22] <zanga> fiendskull9:it`s mi first dai of ubuntu
[12:22] <zanga> *my
[12:22] <zanga> *day
[12:22] <h0nus> crimsun, the pastebin is updated
[12:22] <zanga> :)
[12:22] <fiendskull9> zanga, do you have aim open?
[12:22] <Arrick> IdleOne: if I want just Ubuntu on this pc, what is the best way to do this?
[12:22] <fiendskull9> zanga, *Gaim
[12:22] <mfb__> anyone knowledgeable with Apache in the house ?
[12:22] <crimsun> h0nus: same url?
[12:22] <zanga> fiendskull: yes
[12:22] <fiendskull9> !gaim
[12:22] <ubotu> well, gaim is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/GaimHowto/
[12:22] <fiendskull9> ok
[12:22] <IdleOne> Arrick, use the ubuntu install cd and let it format the entire disk
[12:22] <fiendskull9> so you sn is alexlupu_703?
[12:22] <h0nus> yes
[12:22] <zanga> yes
[12:22] <Xenguy> mfb__: assume there is, and ask the real question :-)
[12:22] <h0nus> crimsun, repost it?
[12:23] <Arrick> ok
[12:23] <mfb__> Xenguy> well, it's quite complicated
[12:23] <h0nus> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10729
[12:23] <fiendskull9> zanga, it sais your not logged in
[12:23] <Xenguy> !anyone
[12:23] <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>
[12:23] <h0nus> crimsun, i lied it's a diff url
[12:23] <h0nus> lol
[12:24] <neo911> because it doesn't sound polite to just ask straight away?
[12:24] <Matthewv> fiendskull9, why not just point him to totem and rhythmbox, and maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:24] <neo911> well then if you want to be efficient rather than be human... i'll do just that
[12:24] <Xenguy> neo911: that is what the channel is here for; messing around just wastes time
[12:24] <HymnToLife> well, the thing is, I run a webserver with a no-ip DNS redirection, everything worked fine
[12:24] <crimsun> h0nus: no prob. In a Terminal (Applications> Accessories> Terminal), execute: amixer sset 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' on
[12:25] <fiendskull9> Matthewv, Im wslking him through multiverse repositories to get mp3 codecs then tell him to use totem
[12:25] <Cyorxamp> .
[12:25] <HymnToLife> and then with no reason I got that http://fkraiem.no-ip.info
[12:25] <American> anyone have an idea about that DVD issue?
[12:25] <Matthewv> fiendskull9, ok... sry then :)
[12:25] <IdleOne> Cyorxamp, welcome back
[12:25] <fiendskull9> Matthewv, no prob
[12:25] <codecaine> American, you are trying to unzip onto the DVD
[12:25] <HymnToLife> but the funny thing is, when I try to connect with my IP Adresse instead, it doesn't work at all
[12:25] <codecaine> Hymn, maybe you have apache only listening to a hostname?
[12:26] <h0nus> amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output jack',0
[12:26] <Cyorxamp> All I was asking ompaul was to see if it he would promote #ubuntu-hardware due to how busy this channel was - IN RETURN I get banned
[12:26] <Cyorxamp> The guy is trigger happy op
[12:26] <Arrick> IdleOne: if I just want this to be a file and print server, do I go ahead and type in server at boot?
[12:26] <Cyorxamp> and egotistical
[12:26] <American> codecaine, I'm just following a guide.
[12:26] <Cyorxamp> AND YES - I AM TROLLING
[12:26] <hersio> hi, what package is the gnome-window-decorator in?
[12:26] <IdleOne> Arrick, you can but wont have GUI. if your comfortable with that yup type server at promtp
[12:26] <codecaine> American, copy the zip to your local disk then follow your article.
[12:26] <hersio> i cant seem to run it after launching XGL and all my windows dont have the borders/menus etc
[12:27] <Xenguy> hersio: apt-file search package
[12:27] <Arrick> IdleOne: thanks
[12:27] <hersio> :S
[12:27] <crimsun> h0nus: no, make sure you use the precise syntax that I used
[12:27] <American> oh damn thanks!
[12:27] <codecaine> apt-cache search package
[12:28] <h0nus>  amixer sset 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output jack' on
[12:28] <h0nus> amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output jack',0
[12:28] <hersio> that doesnt work for me Xenguy
[12:28] <crimsun> h0nus: amixer -c0 sset 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output jack' on
[12:28] <corvax> apt-cache show package is useful
[12:28] <corvax> aswell
[12:28] <Matthewv> hersio, maybe you need to ask that in #ubuntu+1 or #ubuntu-xgl
[12:28] <vclimber49er> is there someone here who is able to help enable an HP 820cse printer in Ubuntu 5.10, please? i have the pnm2ppa installed, or so it says, but i am having no luck.

[12:29] <Xenguy> hersio: apt-file search file (is what I meant)
[12:29] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, I think most hp printers are automatically detected in ubuntu, just add them through System --> Administration --> Printing
[12:29] <smoggy_city> Does anybody know of a good place to find more info on installing ubuntu on a G4 PPC?
[12:29] <hersio> so far what i have seen, of the working bits, XGL is nice :)
[12:29] <hersio> apt-file gives me command not found
[12:30] <codecaine> hersio, use apt-cache
[12:30] <corvax> yeah the  ppc channel or forum
[12:30] <Xenguy> hersio: gives no output

[12:30] <joseph> how long does it take for apt repos to sync?
[12:30] <Xenguy> hersio: apt-get install apt-file && apt-file update (use sudo if need be)
[12:30] <h0nus> crimsun, should the command be "amixer" or "alsamixer"?
[12:31] <hersio> thansk

[12:31] <RemyLaptop> hey guys, is there such a thing as a windows emulator for linux ?  I have some cool windows games, but can't play em :-(
[12:32] <corvax> smoggy_city try http://www.ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=95
[12:32] <chrisbudden14> wine, cedega, crossover office
[12:32] <tonyyarusso> smoggy_city: If you have a specific question, just ask, also see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation for general info; not sure about that specifically myself.
[12:32] <Xenguy> RemyLaptop: you probably want cedega, or wine
[12:32] <corvax> !mac
[12:32] <ubotu> corvax: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:32] <corvax> !ppc
[12:32] <ubotu> well, ppc is PowerPC. Macs, IBMs. Nicer than Intel.
[12:32] <graveson> i have a drive that is mounted automatically ,why can i not use nautilus to copy and delete at the top level .using the command line is no problem
[12:32] <corvax> hehe
[12:33] <vclimber49er> Matthewv you are right! but it isn't printing. it says it is printing, but the printer does not activate. the job goes to the "spooler", status says "printing", and then it disappears after a moment, just as though it were printing. the printer is fine, as i used it only a few days ago before i made the switch back to linux. any other suggestions?
[12:33] <hersio> ok fixed thanks guys :)
[12:33] <nvicf> Hello, I have a problem that can't work around, after some power failures I receive segmentation fault while executing xmms or mplayer, I've tried with fsck and reinstalling glibc, but it won't go, I did an strace and used gdb but none seems to be helping, any ideas?sorry if this is way offtopic but I belive it has something to do with mem, corrupted stack o something
[12:33] <h0nus> crimsun, i was going to install the emu10k1 driver (in case it wasn't already installed)

[12:34] <eirejah> anyone here any good with qparted?
[12:34] <eirejah> using it to set up a dual boot
[12:34] <fiendskull9> !mp3
[12:34] <ubotu> somebody said mp3 was a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:34] <Matthewv> !anyone
[12:34] <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>
[12:35] <eirejah> Matthewv ?
[12:35] <britches> ubugtu
[12:35] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, I'll have a look at some things, but try looking at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HpPrinterInstallationAndMaintenanceBreezy
[12:35] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: Please describe the problem / specific question you have to get better help.
[12:35] <eirejah> tonyyarusso: i would like to divide my hard drive with qtparted to set up a dual boot, but i cant figure out how
[12:35] <Arrick> IdleOne: can you direct me to a good source of information regarding Ubuntu Linux?
[12:36] <smoggy_city> thanks! tonyyarusso & corvax, just one thing; what do you mean by "!mac" or "!ppc"? Or was that not directed at me?
[12:36] <ompaul> Arrick, wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:36] <Arrick> IdleOne: I am pretty new at linux, but I want to learn more
[12:36] <Arrick> ok thabks
[12:36] <tonyyarusso> smoggy_city: Those reference the bot.
[12:36] <Arrick> thanks
[12:36] <corvax> i was seing what the bot had to say
[12:36] <corvax> lol
[12:36] <crimsun> h0nus: please use ``alsamixer -c0'', scroll to the far right, and unmute the 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack'
[12:36] <Matthewv> eirejah, you'll need to select your windows partition, then resize to make space for your ubuntu installation
[12:37] <Matthewv> eirejah, then run ubuntu installer and tell it to use free space for install
[12:37] <corvax> use a live cd to resize windows eirjah
[12:37] <corvax> also
[12:37] <corvax> your windows patrion
[12:37] <corvax> you need to run disk defrag
[12:37] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: Are you dealing with the currently mounted root filesystem partition?
[12:37] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, just checking, do you have hplip installed
[12:37] <corvax> or it wont let you resize
[12:37] <eirejah> tonyyarusso: yes
[12:37] <ompaul> Arrick, you may wish to consider this: http://help.ubuntu.com/ it a several useful documents and a book there
[12:37] <vclimber49er> Matthewv thank you. i will have a look.
[12:37] <vclimber49er> Matthewv yes.
[12:38] <eirejah> it wont let me pick the resize option
[12:38] <h0nus> crimsun, it is now unmuted
[12:38] <Matthewv> ubuntu, you might want to consider changin your nick
[12:38] <eirejah> and it tells me that /hda is 'busy'
[12:38] <pawel> :>
[12:38] <britches> matthewv why would he want to do that?
[12:39] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, you do? ok... when you went through the printer config, did you see one or two printers for selection, and what happens if you run 'hp-admin'
[12:39] <corvax> eirejah it it wouldnt let me resize windows untill i defragged it
[12:39] <Arrick> IdleOne: when I start to install, do I want the LVM or the other one with erase entire disc?
[12:39] <crimsun> h0nus: good, now you should be able to hear output from ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav''
[12:39] <eirejah> corvax: im on ubuntu :)
[12:39] <corvax> yes
[12:39] <corvax> bu you have to boot into windows
[12:39] <h0nus> crimsun, FIXED!!!!!!!!!
[12:39] <eirejah> i dont have windows installed
[12:39] <corvax> or is it that you want to resize your resizer or ext3 partion
[12:39] <eirejah> only ubuntu
[12:39] <vclimber49er> Matthewv let's see...
[12:39] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: That's because it's mounted; for the root one you'll have to use a Live CD so the partition isn't in use.
[12:40] <corvax> to make room for a new windows install?\
[12:40] <laffer> how do I choose gdm instead of xdm again??
[12:40] <h0nus> crimsun, i'll pastebin some ty's for you rofl
[12:40] <anacaona> hello hello
[12:40] <crimsun> h0nus: no need :)
[12:40] <eirejah> tonyyarusso: ok so boot into a live cd and use qtparted there yeh ? and resize /hda  ?
[12:41] <ompaul> crimsun, what are the chances of getting 5.1 sound working on an alsa card, which I don't happen to have at this time, but I will be asked
[12:41] <eirejah> tonyyarusso: and when i go to boot into the new os im installing .. to boot to the cd how do i tell it to not use the whole hd ?
[12:41] <ompaul> crimsun, sorry audigy2 card
[12:41] <corvax> windows is a predatory os
[12:41] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: Essentially, except for a few things: I'm not sure whether qtparted comes on that disk or not.  If so, great.  If not, you can apt-get it.  Also, it's probably /dev/hda1 you want to resize (not /hda, which wouldn't exist, nor /dev/hda, which is the actual physical drive)
[12:42] <eirejah> corvax: im not installing windows at all anywhere anytime
[12:42] <eirejah> hehe
[12:42] <vclimber49er> Matthewv two printers appear. both listed as hp 820, just worded differently. how do i run hp-admin?

[12:42] <luckyshot> how do i fix the refresh rate of my monitor on ubuntu????
[12:42] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: I'm honestly not sure; I've only done it with Windows installed first, then Ubuntu, not the other way around.
[12:42] <Matthewv> tonyyarusso, gparted is on the ubuntu live cd, dont know about qtparted and kubuntu live cd
[12:42] <corvax> oh i see
[12:42] <RemyLaptop> Xenguy, where do I get cedega from, it's not listed in the repository... ?

[12:42] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, with the printers, make sure you select the one with underscores :)
[12:43] <corvax> thats easy
[12:43] <luckyshot> how do i fix the refresh rate of my monitor on ubuntu????
[12:43] <corvax> linux gets along with every os :)
[12:43] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: Oh, that's fine then.  Linux install disks are smart.
[12:43] <vclimber49er> Matthewv ok.

[12:44] <ompaul> crimsun, LS
[12:44] <Hexidigital> that's it _jason, thanks :)
[12:44] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: Just slow down a bit and read prompts carefully.  For instance, with the Ubuntu install disk, you select "manually edit partition table", then have some menus for installing to a particular partition and assigning mount points.
[12:44] <ompaul> crimsun, never could get more than 3 channels working
[12:44] <blrich> i have an nvidia c51 raid controller on my new mobo - is there any way i can install drivers for it during the ubuntu install?

[12:45] <ompaul> crimsun, I am due to visit it again soon
[12:45] <tonyyarusso> Olson: Depends on the computer/bios.  Try Googling for something specific to the system for recommendations; I know there are some on the ThinkWiki for IBM ThinkPads.
[12:45] <_jason> KannaBee: your message got cutoff after ``Whats cra'', but you may want to try #apache if that exists
[12:45] <vclimber49er> Matthewv what dir?
[12:45] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, sorry, the command is 'hp-toolbox'
[12:45] <blrich> can someone help? i have an nvidia c51 raid controller on my new mobo - is there any way i can install drivers for it during the ubuntu install?

[12:54] <b0o> can anyone give me a crash course in x11?
[12:54] <B_166-ER-X> Does anyone knows how to UNinstall the Doom 3 linux demo ?
[12:55] <corvax> !x11
[12:55] <ubotu> somebody said x11 was a protocol used by X servers and clients  X11 stands for the eleventh version of the X window system.
[12:55] <b0o> I've got that much ;)
[12:55] <Blippe> what does make mrproper do?
[12:56] <cafuego> creates a clean kernel tree; trashes everything you did to it.
[12:56] <cafuego> You don't run that command on an Ubuntu system.
[12:56] <b0o> the whole story is that I'm trying to get an external lcd monitor working
[12:56] <corvax> external?
[12:56] <b0o> I've edited my xorg.conf in /etc/X11 but it went back to the default config....
[12:56] <corvax> as in plugged into laptop
[12:56] <cafuego> On Ubuntu, you use 'make-kpkg' to build customised kernel packages.
[12:56] <b0o> yep..
[12:57] <corvax> it should "just work"
[12:57] <b0o> ok...well...more detail :)
[12:57] <Evox> Hello?
[12:57] <corvax> i found that out
[12:57] <b0o> it's a hacked up lcd from a psone
[12:57] <Speil> hello
[12:57] <corvax> my wifes laptop is now a desktop
[12:57] <b0o> i'm working on an in car nav system
[12:57] <Speil> I need help
[12:57] <corvax> after dropping the thing
[12:57] <ompaul> !helpme
[12:57] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[12:57] <b0o> ha :)
[12:58] <b0o> the goofy thing about this is that the modeline is really strange....so I setup the xorg.conf to reflect it and reboot
[12:58] <malv> how do I get my network settings saved?
[12:58] <malv> everytime I change them, it automatically goes back
[12:58] <malv> *when I reboot, that is
[12:58] <corvax> its an hpze43xx series
[12:58] <Speil> Well.ok...........................I Downloaded VMWare and am using Ubuntu under the 5.10 Breezy Virtual Machene Image and I dont Know the Default Password..
[12:58] <corvax> at first both screens were on
[12:58] <Speil> any help?
[12:58] <cafuego> There is nod efault password.
[12:58] <ompaul> b0o, is >>sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg<< any use to you?
[12:59] <corvax> but all i had to do was push the button on the laptop to switch toexternal and
[12:59] <Speil> Well...How do I find out the password?
[12:59] <b0o> I gave that a shot, but it logged me out of gnome
[12:59] <corvax> it "just worked"
[12:59] <cafuego> Speil: Like I said, there isn't one. No password.
[12:59] <Speil> .....then what the hell do I type in when it asks me for the admin Password?
[12:59] <ompaul> !tell Speil about root
[12:59] <b0o> yeah my Fn-F8 (crt/lcd) doesn't switch over
[12:59] <codecaine> Is there any util that shows you what hardware a dev is mapped too?
[12:59] <ompaul> Speil, read that page that the bot sent ya
[12:59] <cafuego> Speil: You'd normally just hit return.
[01:00] <raindog_> I'm trying to edit a file.  When I go thru the file browser it is read only.  When I do sudo nano... it shows the file as empty.  Can someone help?
[01:00] <corvax> sudo nano filename
[01:00] <_jason> raindog_: what file?
[01:00] <corvax> you need to be int he directory where the file is
[01:01] <corvax> unless
[01:01] <raindog_> _jason:  /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:01] <corvax> you do sudo nano /home/username/filename
[01:01] <corvax> or wherever
[01:02] <Aisi> :( getting sick of rhythmbox seg faulting
[01:02] <ompaul> b0o, have a look at this as a starting point https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDownUnder/BOFs/XorgAutoconfiguration there should be something more useful but I have not found it yet
[01:02] <b0o> ok, I'll take a look...thx
[01:03] <RemyLaptop> hey guys, who do I install new fonts ?
[01:03] <RemyLaptop> I have the ttf file...
[01:03] <Msonier> does Ubuntu run faster than windows? My only experiance is using it via the live cd, when actually installed is it fairly speedy/
[01:03] <raindog_> thru terminal (sudo nano) it shows the file as empty.  When I look at it thru the file browser it is not empty, but it is read only.
[01:03] <_jason> ubotu: tell RemyLaptop about fonts
[01:04] <ccc_> RemyLaptop: put it in ~/.fonts/
[01:04] <_jason> raindog_: type the exact command you used
[01:04] <corvax> ubuntu is "ok"
[01:04] <corvax> speedwise
[01:04] <Speil> Ok that page was no help at all
[01:04] <corvax> it is meant to be user friendly so it loads things you may not need
[01:04] <cafuego> Msonier: it runs *much* faster when installed than it does off the cd.
[01:04] <corvax> by default
[01:04] <RemyLaptop> !fonts
[01:04] <ubotu> well, fonts is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FontInstallHowto
[01:04] <raindog_> sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.1st
[01:04] <Speil> Because when I try to Set up a New Account It still asks for the password before im able to get to the menu
[01:05] <b0o> k, thanks for the suggestions....everyone have a good one
[01:05] <_jason> raindog_: menu.lst contains a lowercase L, not the number 1
[01:05] <cafuego> Msonier: I find it to be only a little bit faster than WinXP on my box, but I do run a lot of tools on Ubuntu that I don't on Windows.
[01:05] <corvax> ubuntu will be snappier than windows xp on the same hardware
[01:05] <Aisi> Msonier, ubuntu is responsive for me. don't know how you would measure if it is faster or not. nothing feels slow about either to me
[01:05] <corvax> might take longer to boot though
[01:05] <raindog_> _jason:  Thanks.  I guess I need a new monitor.
[01:06] <_jason> raindog_: or new fonts
[01:06] <saiko> i find firefox is much less responsive, and clicking on combo boxes etc causes a half second delay i didnt get on windows
[01:06] <Msonier> one other question, how difficult is it to run a dual boot between XP and Ubuntu...i have 2 HD's in the comp, can i just have XP on one and Ubuntu on the other?
[01:06] <eirejah> tonyyarusso: are you still here?
[01:07] <Speil> Ok that page was no help at all
[01:07] <Speil> Because when I try to Set up a New Account It still asks for the password before im able to get to the menu
[01:07] <_jason> Speil: what's wrong?
[01:08] <Speil> I downloaded the VMWare Program and the Ubuntu Image that is on there site to run with the program
[01:08] <Speil> and I do not know the password that was configured
[01:08] <Aisi> Msonier, yes, you can do that. It is easier to have the drive ubuntu is installed on the first to boot, because ubuntu's bootloader (grub) is capable of starting windows and linux, but windows' bootloader isn't
[01:08] <Speil> So I cant config my clock or anything
[01:08] <corvax> speil try ubuntu'?
[01:08] <_jason> Speil: can't you boot in recovery mode and reset the password?
[01:09] <corvax> lol
[01:09] <eirejah> corvax: have you ever used gparted ?
[01:09] <corvax> its fun "finding out" passwords
[01:09] <corvax> eire i usually us qtparted
[01:09] <corvax> on the knoppix live cd
[01:09] <Msonier> Aisi, do you know where i could find a how-to or walk through on dual booting XP and Ubuntu?
[01:09] <eirejah> well i booted into the live ubuntu but it has no qtparted ad i cant dl it
[01:10] <eirejah> i want to make a bootable 5gb partition but it says something about minimum 16000 mb
[01:10] <Cobain> is there either a) a kernel compiled with gcc4 or a version of gcc 3.4.5 available
[01:11] <Aisi> Msonier, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/   should have one.
[01:11] <_jason> Cobain: gcc-3.4 is in the repsositories
[01:11] <Msonier> Excellent, thanks
[01:11] <_jason> Cobain: repositories even
[01:11] <Cobain> hmm
[01:11] <joseph> how do I setup the nvidia 3d driver?
[01:11] <Aisi> Msonier, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo?highlight=%28Dual%29   to be specific
[01:12] <_jason> Cobain: well you only need gcc-3.4 for the kernel
[01:12] <Aisi> Msonier, the howto deals with installing ubuntu and windows on a single drive though
[01:12] <Cobain> jason: im trying to compile vmmod and it needs the version of gcc to be the same that built the kernel
[01:12] <Aisi> but it'll gi've you an idea of what to do
[01:12] <_jason> Cobain: install gcc-3.4 and then issue 'export CC=gcc-3.4' before you compile
[01:12] <rikeko> does anyone have an idea which modules i have to load to make work the USB interface on a apple lombard (lucent microelectronics) ?
[01:12] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, I'm back :) have you got your printer working yet??
[01:13] <vclimber49er> Matthewv no.
[01:13] <Msonier> Aisi, i think the easiest way fo rme to figure it out will just to dive in and start trying this stuff out...i'm just a little nervous about the Ubuntu learning curve
[01:13] <rikeko> i have had problems to get that work in debian + ubuntu
[01:13] <vclimber49er> Matthewv i'm kind of stuck. i don't know what other options i have.
[01:13] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, so you have hplip installed??
[01:13] <shambling> hi, when i install nvidia nforce audio & lan drives, network card stops working, even if only install audio driver, anyone have experience in this area?
[01:14] <fiendskull9> How do i chmod all files with the a certain directory?
[01:14] <fiendskull9> oops
[01:14] <Aisi> Msonier, it isn't too hard. jumping in helps a bit. using irc can be very haphazard for getting answers to things, as half are wrong and the other half assume you know more than you do
[01:14] <fiendskull9> typed wrong
[01:14] <shambling> *running dapper amd 64btw
[01:14] <vclimber49er> Matthewv yes. i'm pretty sure.
[01:14] <fiendskull9> How do i chmod a bunch of files with one file exstension in a dir.?
[01:14] <_jason> fiendskull9: chmod -R, it's usually a bad idea
[01:14] <_jason> fiendskull9: chmod -R <permissions> *.extension
[01:14] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, you checked in synaptic Package Manager??
[01:15] <fiendskull9> thanks _jason
[01:15] <Frogzoo> Msonier: you'll probably have a few favourite apps you have to have & there might be a little tweaking needed for these - after you've got your basic setup though, the learning curve lessens and you can just learn at your own pace
[01:15] <vclimber49er> vincent@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install hplip
[01:15] <vclimber49er> Reading package lists... Done
[01:15] <vclimber49er> Building dependency tree... Done
[01:15] <vclimber49er> Package hplip is not available, but is referred to by another package.

[01:15] <vclimber49er> is only available from another source
[01:15] <vclimber49er> However the following packages replace it:

[01:15] <Frogzoo> !tell vclimber49er about enter
[01:15] <Matthewv> !pastebin
[01:15] <ubotu> I guess pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[01:15] <Aisi> Msonier, jump in. read some of the documentaition at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation and ask questions in the forums and on irc
[01:16] <Frogzoo> !tell vclimber49er about pastebin
[01:16] <_jason> fiendskull9: ignore the last thing I said, it is wrong
[01:16] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, have you enabled the extra repositories?? universe?
[01:16] <fiendskull9> ok
[01:16] <_jason> fiendskull9: don't use the -R
[01:16] <fiendskull9> _jason so for ex. like chmod 777 .mp3
[01:16] <Msonier> Aisi, yeah, i've been reading the forum a bit and think i am ready to take the plunge into ubuntu
[01:16] <fiendskull9> Msonier, do it
[01:17] <corvax> do you have all the repos vclimber?
[01:17] <fiendskull9> Msonier, youll love it
[01:17] <_jason> fiendskull9: chmod 777 *.mp3
[01:17] <Aisi> Msonier, good. goodluck :)
[01:17] <fiendskull9> ok
[01:17] <corvax> im using dapper now but the package is in breezy as well
[01:17] <fiendskull9> thanks _jason
[01:17] <vclimber49er> Matthewv that is not something i have manually done, no.
[01:17] <smoggy_city> ok, I'm going in! Wish me luck!!!
[01:17] <Msonier> Aisi, thanks for the help/advice :)
[01:17] <vclimber49er> Matthewv i am checking synaptic now.
[01:18] <corvax> smoogy Go for it!
[01:18] <Cobain> is it possible to downgrade from gcc4 to 3.4.5?
[01:19] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, do you have hplip-base installed though??
[01:20] <_jason> Cobain: did you try what I said?
[01:20] <Mischevious> Cobain, you can have them both installed
[01:21] <vclimber49er> Matthewv yes. status is "installed".
[01:21] <george__> Hi guys! How do i make another user?
[01:21] <_jason> george__: adduser foo
[01:21] <george__> thank u
[01:22] <_jason> george__: there is a gui way too but I don't remember, just look through the menus
[01:22] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, I would probably suggest asking here again or posting on the forum... but b4 i give up :) what model printer exactly was it??
[01:22] <IdleOne> System > Administration > Users and Groups
[01:22] <corvax> vclimber do apt-cache show hplipand loook at the dependencies

[01:24] <vclimber49er> Matthewv HP 820Cse Professional Series. 42 ml tanks and fast, for its age. clean, never been buggy. i just can't bring myself to part with it. but... if it ain't gonna work in linux... gotta do something.
[01:25] <corvax> vcl is that a laser"?
[01:25] <jadaz87> hello i was wondering if anyone knew of any torrent clients that were like BitComet for Linux  because i need one that can handle multiple torrents at the same time and not have multiple instances like the original bittorent client that comes with ubuntu default
[01:25] <Mischevious> jadaz87, azureus is great
[01:25] <vclimber49er> Matthewv but it is usually just listed as an 820c.
[01:26] <jadaz87> mischevious is that hard to install? or do they have a debian package for me :-)
[01:26] <vclimber49er> corvax no, just an old deskjet.
[01:26] <Mischevious> jadaz87, sudo apt-get install azureus
[01:26] <jadaz87> oh ok thanks mischevious :-)
[01:27] <corvax> o i c
[01:27] <eirejah> tonyyarusso: are you here?
[01:27] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, that'd be a deskjet, right?
[01:27] <jadaz87>  this is the error that came up Package azureus is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[01:27] <jadaz87> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[01:27] <jadaz87> is only available from another source
[01:27] <jadaz87> E: Package azureus has no installation candidate
[01:27] <Arafangion> jadaz87: What is wrong with having multiple programs open?
[01:28] <jadaz87> arafangion it clutters the desktop area
[01:28] <eirejah> can anyone help me please, i have just resized my harddrive with gparted and im wondering ... when i do df -h i dont see the new partition ..is there another commanded so i can see it ??
[01:28] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Ahh, ok.
[01:28] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Sorry, I'm a traditionalist, using the console :)
[01:28] <Arafangion> jadaz87: You couldn't just put all the torrents onto another desktop?
[01:28] <jadaz87> arafangion i am an windows super expert converted to a linux n00b :-)
[01:28] <vclimber49er> Matthewv yeah, sorry.
[01:28] <OiNutter> My HP 970cse printer runs incredibly slow, stopping many times after I installed it (once through the gui, once through cups)... anyone else have this problem?
[01:28] <Mischevious> jadaz87, update your sources.list
[01:29] <Arafangion> jadaz87: One thing that windows (arguably) does better than linux is threading, but linux excels in being able to run many processes at a time.
[01:29] <vclimber49er> Matthewv can i use the cups workaround, you think?
[01:29] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, you had the pnm2ppa installed didn't you... you could try downloading the ppd file from http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-DeskJet_820C and adding that...
[01:29] <jadaz87> arafangion yes i know but i still like integration lol
[01:29] <jadaz87> how do i update the source list?
[01:29] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, you could try the cups workaround.. :)
[01:29] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Heh.
[01:29] <jadaz87> apt-ger update?
[01:29] <vclimber49er> Matthewv yeah, that's the first thing i did.
[01:29] <void^> if pthread implementations were better..
[01:30] <john_the_linux_n> Hi Folks
[01:30] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, so you've tried the ppd too??
[01:30] <eirejah> anyone ?
[01:30] <vclimber49er> Matthewv yeah.
[01:30] <Mischevious> eirejah, whats the problem
[01:30] <Arafangion> jadaz87: On the console, integration is very good, in the gui... integration is *always* more difficult, as it is actually a much more complex interface, however it is still improving. imho, Mac OS X has the best Gui in terms of integration.
[01:30] <eirejah> can anyone help me please, i have just resized my harddrive with gparted and im wondering ... when i do df -h i dont see the new partition ..is there another commanded so i can see it ??
[01:30] <corvax> therre is a comercial lprinting software for linux
[01:30] <corvax> turboprint
[01:30] <john_the_linux_n> I'm trying to get gnome pgp to work
[01:30] <jadaz87> apt-get update?
[01:30] <fiendskull9> ~gnome pgp
[01:31] <fiendskull9> !gnome pgp
[01:31] <Mulder> is the dapper delay going ahead?
[01:31] <ubotu> fiendskull9: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:31] <eirejah> Mischevious   see above   :)
[01:31] <Mischevious> eirejah, df -h is for mounted partitions
[01:31] <eirejah> ok right
[01:31] <Mischevious> is it mounted?
[01:31] <Arafangion> eirejah: My guess is that you resized an *existing* partition, and haven't made a *new* partition in the resulting free space.
[01:31] <john_the_linux_n> -gnome pgp ?
[01:31] <jadaz87> arafangion yes i like the later gui that you mentioned :-) i have also experimented with the 10.4.1 X86 version
[01:32] <amphi> eirejah: df only shows info for mounted filesystems, I believe
[01:32] <Mischevious> amphi, correct
[01:32] <eirejah> Arafangion: yes that sounds right.. so did i mess up ?
[01:32] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I was a big fan of Mac OS X, until I was asked to fork out more than $1300 just to get my iBook repaird.
[01:32] <eirejah> because i want to install another os into that partition
[01:32] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, I can't really do much more, it should be possible to get it to work though, if other people have, so I would try the forums or here again :)
[01:32] <ompaul> eirejah, u in .ie?
[01:32] <eirejah> no
[01:32] <Arafangion> jadaz87: A new replacement from the same store was less than $1600
[01:32] <eirejah> ubuntu
[01:33] <RemyLaptop> hey, how can I check what processes are running ?
[01:33] <ompaul> eirejah, ehh the country not the os
[01:33] <eirejah> oooh
[01:33] <eirejah> haha
[01:33] <eirejah> yeh
[01:33] <eirejah> duh
[01:33] <eirejah> sorry :>
[01:33] <eirejah> yes i am
[01:33] <IdleOne> !enter
[01:33] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[01:33] <Matthewv> vclimber49er, one last thing :) did you make sure you selected the correct driver also from the drop down list.. when adding the printer?
[01:33] <vclimber49er> Matthewv i do appreciate your patience and effort. i am not quitting yet. :)
[01:33] <OiNutter> Anyone know why my printer would be printing so slowly under hpijs?
[01:33] <vclimber49er> Matthewv yes.
[01:33] <Matthewv> nor would i ;)
[01:33] <eirejah> IdleOne: shush, i rarely do it
[01:33] <jadaz87> arafagion yeah that stinks oh well atleast they have the X86 efi hacked edition for us x86 users
[01:33] <IdleOne> eirejah, shush?
[01:33] <john_the_linux_n> fiendskull9 what is -gnome pgp?
[01:34] <eirejah> yep
[01:34] <jadaz87> "they" = not Apple
[01:34] <VK2NA> DAPPER: if anyone has difficulty upgrading the xserver-org package that came down today, I found that uninstalling x-window-core fixed the broken package fault.
[01:34] <jadaz87> hahalol
[01:34] <vclimber49er> Matthewv and i tried different drivers for similar hp machines, too.
[01:34] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I'm a unix guru, I might as well just get an Asus laptop, and run linux on it.
[01:34] <jadaz87> Arafangion yeah lol
[01:34] <jadaz87> arafangion i have a question how do i update the source lists inubuntu?
[01:34] <crimsun> that's quite probably the first time I've seen anyone describe him-/herself as a "unix guru"
[01:34] <Mischevious> Arafangion, does asus work well with linux?
[01:34] <OiNutter> Anyone of you printing gurus know?
[01:34] <IdleOne> eirejah, pfft!
[01:34] <Arafangion> Mischevious: imho, very well.
[01:34] <eirejah> ;)
[01:34] <eirejah> ompaul: what about you?
[01:34] <Mischevious> Arafangion, nice to know
[01:35] <Arafangion> Mischevious: But there is alot of variation in Asus laptops.
[01:35] <ompaul> eirejah, there is a meeting in ucd tomorrow
[01:35] <Mischevious> Arafangion, i see
[01:35] <eirejah> ompaul: really? about what
[01:35] <Arafangion> Mischevious: This particular one has an ATI Mobility, but I forget the model number, but that works well using ATI proprietary drivers.
[01:35] <ompaul> eirejah, go to #ubuntu-offtopic and I will paste a url there as soon as I can find it
[01:35] <eirejah> kk
[01:35] <RemyLaptop> hey, how can I check what processes / programs are running ?
[01:35] <Mischevious> Arafangion, i really like ati, i have a 256mb pci express x700 pro
[01:35] <Mischevious> :-P
[01:35] <OiNutter> Anyone have any ideas?
[01:35] <IdleOne> RemyLaptop, ps aux
[01:36] <Arafangion> Mischevious: I prefer NVidia, but they are very hard to get in laptops.
[01:36] <jadaz87> !azureus
[01:36] <ubotu> [azureus]  a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[01:36] <Mischevious> ps -ef is nice also
[01:36] <amphi> RemyLaptop: or top
[01:36] <jadaz87> thank you ubotu have a bot snack
[01:36] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I only know how to do it on the console.
[01:36] <Mischevious> !botsnack
[01:36] <ubotu> thanks mischevious :)
[01:36] <themachine> what ftp is good for any user regardless of operating system?
[01:36] <Mischevious> jadaz87, you good to go with azureus ?
[01:37] <Mischevious> themachine, you mean server/client or what.
[01:37] <themachine> server
[01:37] <Arafangion> jadaz87: To update the sources list, type "sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list", and add the relevant source line, then run "sudo apt-get update". If you don't know how to use vim, just use any other (console) editor.
[01:37] <jadaz87> mischevious i do not know how to update the source lists
[01:37] <Mischevious> themachine, a user from any os can connect to any ftp server on any OS.
[01:37] <OiNutter> My HP 970cse printer runs incredibly slow, stopping many times after I installed it (once through the gui, once through cups)... anyone else have this problem?
[01:37] <Mischevious> it doesn't matter.
[01:38] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I cut my teeth on Debian, you see :)
[01:38] <themachine> I want an ftp with user names and passwords
[01:38] <vclimber49er> Frogzoo thanks for your "help" too. i do try not to make mistakes, but, you know, sometimes they happen.
[01:38] <Mischevious> Arafangion, only linux i ever liked was ubuntu :-P i tried suse once and threw away the disc.
[01:39] <Arafangion> themachine: Ok, so you don't want anonymous ftp?
[01:39] <themachine> yea
[01:39] <maximaus> hola forkers.
[01:39] <Mischevious> ?
[01:39] <Arafangion> Mischevious: I dislike rpm based distros, as they tend to be redhat-like, and I just don't really like the redhat distros, ESPECIALLY mandrake.
[01:39] <maximaus> sorry, wrong channel
[01:39] <maximaus> :P
[01:39] <VK2NA> There is a great vim cheatsheet out there somewhere.  A google search should find it.
[01:39] <Mischevious> Arafangion, rpm is a deal braker for me :-P
[01:39] <we2by> hi
[01:40] <we2by> when is the next stable release?
[01:40] <Arafangion> Mischevious: rpm itself is actually quite decent, assuming that they've fixed the database corruption problem.
[01:40] <Mischevious> june 1st
[01:40] <Arafangion> we2by: When it's ready.
[01:40] <Mischevious> that too
[01:40] <we2by> I thought it was in april
[01:40] <Mischevious> it got pushed back.
[01:40] <ompaul> Arafangion, june 1 is when its ready
[01:40] <jadaz87> arafangion hahaha are you using irssi right now? lol
[01:40] <VK2NA> I have found Dapper pretty stable even though it's not labelled as such.
[01:40] <keith_> can someone here tell me how to set module params in ubuntu
[01:40] <amphi> Arafangion: heh, the debian user shining through? ;)
[01:40] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Inside of "screen".
[01:40] <maximaus> A lot of us are using Dapper w/o trouble, but if you want stability, wait till June
[01:40] <Arafangion> jadaz87: There is no alternative for screen in the gui :(
[01:40] <Mischevious> VK2NA, i was unlucky and tried to dist-upgrade at the exact moment somone broke it :-P
[01:40] <Arafangion> amphi: Heh :)
[01:40] <keith_> ive got a card that is autodetecting with the params card=72, and it needs card=37
[01:40] <jadaz87> arafangion what do you mean?
[01:41] <Mischevious> maximaus, lucky
[01:41] <themachine> so which ftp can do non annonymous transfer, with its own list of usernames and passwords?
[01:41] <Mischevious> all of them
[01:41] <Mischevious> lol
[01:41] <crimsun> vsftpd, proftpd, ...
[01:41] <Mischevious> proftpd is a nice one.
[01:41] <Mischevious> better off using ssh though.
[01:41] <Arafangion> jadaz87: screen is a program that allows me to use many "screens" (ie, console windows), but also allows me to disconnect and reconnect from somewhere else, and still have everything going.
[01:41] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I can logout, and still have my sessions running.
[01:41] <keith_> can someone here tell me how to set module parameters under ubuntu?
[01:42] <Arafangion> themachine: ftp really isn't recommended.
[01:42] <Arafangion> themachine: passwords are plain-text, for starters.
[01:42] <Mischevious> Arafangion, i love screen.
[01:42] <themachine> scp?
[01:42] <Mischevious> yes
[01:42] <Mischevious> scp
[01:42] <themachine> ok
[01:42] <simpo>  i have my own module on some CVS server, and there are some files in this module, but id like to clean it, whats the way to remove all from module/dir ?
[01:43] <Arafangion> Mischevious: The only *plausable* alternative for the gui imho is VNC, but that is complicated to setup and is very, very limited compared to screen :(
[01:43] <Mischevious> Arafangion, vnc = no thanks
[01:43] <jadaz87> arafangion oh ok so you do not use a wme like gnome
[01:43] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I do, actually.
[01:43] <Mischevious> i tried xfce and i really liked it
[01:43] <IdleOne> Mischevious, try out FreeNX I installed this morning and it is nice
[01:43] <Mischevious> but gnome is still the best.
[01:43] <Mischevious> IdleOne, will do
[01:43] <jadaz87> FreeNX? what is that?
[01:44] <Arafangion> jadaz87: But only because it's a PITA to setup fluxbox on my laptop and still have my keyboard buttons and power management and the like working.
[01:44] <Mischevious> remote desktop
[01:44] <Mischevious> client.
[01:44] <btdown> freenx is da shizit
[01:44] <Mischevious> and server
[01:44] <btdown> !freenx
[01:44] <ubotu> freenx is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeNX
[01:44] <IdleOne> Mischevious, you talking about window managers?
[01:44] <btdown> its like vnc only much faster
[01:44] <Mischevious> IdleOne, um. sort of.
[01:44] <cristof> Hi.
[01:44] <IdleOne> Mischevious, yeah FreeNX for remote desktop :)
[01:44] <jadaz87> Arafangion oh ok i like the fluxbox look but it is not nice to my laptop either aha
[01:45] <Arafangion> jadaz87: It's not the look, it's the functionality.
[01:45] <Mischevious> IdleOne, is it in the repo's?
[01:45] <keith_> can someone here tell me how to set module parameters under ubuntu?
[01:45] <IdleOne> Mischevious, yup
[01:45] <IdleOne> !tell Mischevious about freenx
[01:45] <Mischevious> IdleOne, thanks.
[01:45] <Arafangion> jadaz87: It loads and runs in 1 second, really useful if you need to login quickly, for example.
[01:45] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Most of the time I use the laptop without power, in lecture rooms and meetings, so this is important. (Actually, I use standby mode alot)
[01:46] <cristof> I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.16. It runs fine, but, when I run certain programs under X (like nautilus), my computer freezes.
[01:46] <IdleOne> Mischevious, I had ubuntu running on windows xp box in 5 minutes
[01:46] <Arafangion> IdleOne: Me too, but most of that was in burning the CD ;)
[01:46] <Arafangion> IdleOne: (Live CD)
[01:46] <Mischevious> lol
[01:46] <amphi> keith_: you can stick 'em in a file with the same name as the module in /etc/modprobe.d AFAIK
[01:46] <IdleOne> Arafangion, I mean remote desktop :P
[01:46] <Mischevious> i ran a ubuntu live cd on a computer today also
[01:46] <jadaz87> arafangion wow i did not think of that
[01:46] <Mischevious> amarok imho is the best music app ever.
[01:47] <Mischevious> i just love it :-P
[01:47] <amphi> IdleOne: run xinit on the local machine, ssh -X remote_box, and run whatever command you use to start your wm
[01:47] <keith_> amphi, thanks
[01:47] <sgleo87> does anybody know how to change power settings in ubuntu (after how many minutes/hours, standby, turn off monitorm,,)
[01:48] <IdleOne> amphi, Ill give that a try :)
[01:48] <jsharpe> hey all, when i run gdmsetup i get "failed to connect to socket"....what's goin on?
[01:48] <amphi> sgleo87: xset if there's no gnome thing
[01:48] <Arafangion> jadaz87: But I'm not really that heavy a linux user.
[01:48] <jadaz87> well azureus automatically be the default bt client after i install it?
[01:48] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I manage debian servers most of the time, and I do alot of programming, so that's why I use my system the way I do.
[01:48] <john_the_linux_n> Anyone willing to answer a couple of questions about pgp?
[01:48] <Mischevious> jadaz87, umm, in firefox ?
[01:48] <sgleo87> amphi: gnome thing?
[01:48] <SamuelJ> Heya
[01:49] <jadaz87> arafangion oh  ok i am a windows server 2003 expert turn to linux
[01:49] <amphi> sgleo87: I don't use gnome, so I must be vague ;)
[01:49] <jadaz87> arafangion i have been using linux on all my computers for two weeks now :-D
[01:49] <amphi> jadaz87: congratulations on your defenestration ;)
[01:49] <IdleOne> amphi, you mean run xset if not using gdm
[01:49] <we2by> is there a page with the new stuff I will expect in the next stable release?
[01:49] <sgleo87> amphi: lol, yeah, just a bit
[01:49] <jadaz87> mischevious no the system default i mean when i have a torrent file in gnome and double click it
[01:50] <john_the_linux_n> pgp anyone?
[01:50] <Mischevious> jadaz87, right click a torrent file and select opens with.
[01:50] <Mischevious> jadaz87, in properties that is.
[01:50] <amphi> IdleOne: what does gdm have to do with xset? (I don't use gdm)
[01:50] <Mischevious> jadaz87, but you can setfirefox to pass torrents directly to azureus
[01:50] <SamuelJ> Im having a slight problem, not really linux related but i didnt know where to ask, Anyho, Ive got a domain on on my network im forwarding all web traffic to my webserver 192.168.2.2, And I want to be able to access this box using the domain from WITHIN the network, so far, no luck what so ever.
[01:50] <amphi> john_the_linux_n: gpg shurely ;)
[01:50] <IdleOne> amphi, I dont you said it lol
[01:50] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I find windows very complex and difficult.
[01:50] <IdleOne> know*
[01:50] <Mischevious> i find windows crappy
[01:50] <Arafangion> jadaz87: You probably have the opposite problem :)
[01:51] <we2by> is there a page with the new stuff I will expect in the next stable release?
[01:51] <amphi> IdleOne: no, I meant some gnome monitor pm thing that might ignore/override what you did with xset
[01:51] <Arafangion> we2by: Why does this matter?
[01:51] <Mischevious> !dapper
[01:51] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[01:51] <Mischevious> check their
[01:51] <john_the_linux_n> well - I've been playing with Ubuntu for 2 days - I have gnome pgp but don't know how to make a key
[01:51] <Mischevious> there*
[01:51] <jadaz87> arafangion yes i most definitely do have the opposite problem :-)
[01:51] <Arafangion> we2by: Do you have a bug that you expect will be fixed, or do you simply want the latest and greatest simply because it's the latest and greatest?
[01:52] <jadaz87> arafangion but i am learning to adapt
[01:52] <we2by> I'm just wondering what is in it
[01:52] <Mischevious> i found linux hard at first
[01:52] <Mischevious> now it's wicked easy and so much better then windows
[01:52] <amphi> john_the_linux_n: I presume 'gnome pgp' is a front end to gnupg
[01:52] <Arafangion> Mischevious: Same.
[01:52] <we2by> does the next release come with a gui installer?
[01:52] <john_the_linux_n> could be ;-)
[01:52] <SamuelJ> Anyone care to take a shot at my question? :)
[01:52] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I'm using VS C++ on windows (Uni course), and I'm fighting the system.
[01:53] <amphi> john_the_linux_n: in which case, this page may be of use: http://www.gnupg.org/(en)/documentation/guides.html
[01:53] <Mischevious> SamuelJ, are you on windows?
[01:53] <Arafangion> jadaz87: It doesn't even provide standard out or standard in for easy debugging!!!
[01:53] <SamuelJ> Mischevious, Yes, But the server box is Linux
[01:53] <Mischevious> what distro
[01:53] <jadaz87> arafangion hahaha oh that reminds me
[01:53] <SamuelJ> Lord knows
[01:53] <SamuelJ> It has Ubuntu Repositorys on it though
[01:54] <SamuelJ> :)
[01:54] <john_the_linux_n> thank you I'll take a look
[01:54] <jadaz87> arafangion gcc should have the same libraries as vs c++ right? well the gcc++ version
[01:54] <amphi> john_the_linux_n: 'The GNU Privacy Handbook' in particular
[01:55] <psyke> hi, can someone recommend a graphical benchmarking tools for normal desktop operations? Moving windows, scrolling, etc?
[01:55] <Arafangion> jadaz87: gcc refers to the "Gnu Compiler Collection".
[01:55] <Arafangion> jadaz87: gcc is the command to compile C programs, g++ is the command to compile C++ programs, etc.
[01:55] <amphi> john_the_linux_n: I would imagine that if you use the command line tools to generate keys and so on, the gui thing will pick 'em up
[01:55] <we2by> I'm gonna test the flight 5
[01:55] <SamuelJ> Ive been twiddling with the NAT, And its fine to access it with the domain Outside of the network thats easy, But since the CMS likes to use the proper URLs for images, it goes all funky with images when being veiwed from the outside
[01:55] <jadaz87> arafangion but i mean does it come with the standard c++ libraries?
[01:56] <SamuelJ> Because its still trying to use 192.168.2.2 instead of the domain name
[01:56] <Arafangion> jadaz87: gcc is considered extremely standard.
[01:56] <Arafangion> jadaz87: If gcc fails to compile standard C++, it is a bug.
[01:56] <SamuelJ> So if i try setting it to my domain name, i cant veiw it because im on the side -shakes head-
[01:56] <jadaz87> arafangion oh ok :-)
[01:57] <amphi> Arafangion: don't say that to the plan 9 guys ;)
[01:57] <Arafangion> jadaz87: But, Intel's c++ compiler is considered to be the best with regards to standards...
[01:57] <jadaz87> arafangion i was wondering what are some good c++ ide's for linux
[01:57] <jadaz87> arafangion oh ok
[01:57] <Arafangion> amphi: Plan9 guys should stop playing around and modify linux to the environment.
[01:58] <Arafangion> jadaz87: kdevelop, anjuta, etc, are good ones, but I prefer using vim, and specialized tools (such as wxGlade)
[01:58] <jadaz87> arafangion oh ok :-)
[01:58] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Eclipse looks like another terrific IDE.
[01:59] <jadaz87> arafangion i have use eclipse before but for java
[01:59] <jadaz87> arafangion i did not know it was for c++ too
[01:59] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I program in many languages.
[01:59] <drummer87> hi, I just started a new xserver on display 1 with "X :1" and it loaded ok, but when i run "xterm -display 1" i get this: "xterm Xt error: Can't open display: 1"
[01:59] <drummer87> help anyone??
[01:59] <jadaz87> arafangion do know how can i open port 6881 udp? azureus wants it open
[01:59] <jadaz87> arafangion let me go install that now
[01:59] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Eclipse is primarily a Java IDE, but lately it's had modules for various languages, afaik. (But I have yet to try it)
[01:59] <Arafangion> jadaz87: You running a firewall?
[02:00] <jadaz87> arafangion on this laptop no i am not
[02:00] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Then it should already be open.
[02:00] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Perhaps it's talking about your router.
[02:01] <jadaz87> :-\ i did not have a problem with that on windows hmmmmmmmm
[02:01] <tonyyarusso> eirejah: I'm back, btw.
[02:01] <Arafangion> jadaz87: I have noticed a tendancy for Linux to bitch and moan when standards don't work (Which does wonders getting standards to work), but windows tends to sit back, and make it's own standard.
[02:02] <ariel> hey guys
[02:02] <ariel> any idea when the kernel 2.6.16 will be uploaded?
[02:03] <joseph_> I'm getting the kubuntu splash screen when my system boots, even though I removed kubuntu-desktop.
[02:03] <we2by> I like the new icons
[02:03] <crimsun> ariel: it won't be.
[02:03] <Ubuntu64Live-tri> Hey totally newb question im sure but anybody know is there any way I can Save all my Ubuntu application configs/settings from the LiveCD to pendrive? wondering if there was a quick way to save it all at once and boot up that so i dont have to start fresh next time
[02:03] <Matthewv> joseph_, try removing kubuntu-usplash
[02:03] <ariel> crimsun, they're sticking to 2.6.15 for dapper?
[02:03] <crimsun> ariel: 2.6.15.6 + patches
[02:03] <Arafangion> Ubuntu64Live-tri: Apparently that's a Dapper-specific feature.
[02:04] <Matthewv> joseph_, sry, kubuntu-artwork-usplash
[02:04] <jadaz87> arafangion hmmmm :-\ this is going to be a mission lol my dad does not allow me to even touch the router lol
[02:04] <crimsun> ariel: at this point in our devel cycle, we can't afford to throw away close to five months of stabilisation work
[02:04] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Normally tools will let you choose a port.
[02:04] <ariel> crimsun, but they are backporting stuff from the 2.6.16 right?
[02:04] <crimsun> ariel: as necessary/proper, yes
[02:04] <Arafangion> amphi: I assume that's what *+patches means.
[02:04] <joseph_> next question: when I login my volume control is muted.  How do I make it so that it's unmuted by default when I login.
[02:04] <ariel> crimsun, gotcha
[02:04] <Ubuntu64Live-tri> i ses thanx Arafangion
[02:04] <RemyLaptop> !paste
[02:04] <ubotu> Don't flood the channel! Please use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or the channel #flood to paste large amount of text.
[02:05] <amphi> Arafangion: ?
[02:05] <ariel> crimsun, other question, to get the latest source i have to get the package linux-source, right?
[02:05] <Arafangion> amphi: +patches are generally backports with respect to the kernel, imho.
[02:05] <crimsun> ariel: linux-source-2.6.15 in dapper, linux-source-2.6.12 in breezy, linux-source-2.6.10 in hoary, linux-source-2.6.8.1 in warty
[02:05] <jadaz87> arafangion i think i will have to do that
[02:05] <Arafangion> ariel: I'd say www.kernel.org, but it's not a simple endeviour.
[02:06] <void^> sometimes +patches indicates evil distro specific quirks :/
[02:06] <ariel> well i used to compile all my kernels manually when i was running debian
[02:06] <jadaz87> does anyone know what this means? Failed to access torrent file 'file:///home/joejaxx/Desktop/Torrents/%5BisoHunt%5D%20Sade%20discography%20320kbps.torrent'. Ensure sufficient temporary file space available (check browser cache usage).
[02:06] <ariel> but i got used to the comfort of the ubuntu packages now
[02:06] <themachine> where can I find some tutorials on creating an sftp server?
[02:06] <jadaz87> this happens when i double click a torrent and it tries to open it in azureus
[02:06] <ariel> i'll probably just get the new kernel and use the ubuntu .config file
[02:07] <Mabus06> Is there a program I can get so I will know when users are logged into my computer?
[02:07] <joseph_> how do I remove menus from my Application menu?
[02:08] <Arafangion> ariel: Did you do it the "classical" way or the "Debian way" of compiling the kernel?
[02:08] <ariel> Arafangion, classical
[02:08] <Arafangion> ariel: I recommend using hte debian way.
[02:08] <Matthewv> joseph_, right-click on the menu bar, eg Application, Places, System, and chose Edit Menus
[02:09] <jadaz87> what should i use as that port that is being blocked?
[02:09] <__mikem> Hey. Is there any torture test programs like prime95 available for linux
[02:09] <jadaz87> in azureus? a extremely high number?
[02:09] <Mischevious> yea
[02:09] <Mischevious> i use one over 50,000
[02:10] <[ex] hungry-hobo> dont go to #debian
[02:10] <joseph_> Matthewv: I did that but there is no option to delete
[02:10] <[ex] hungry-hobo> you might get flamed for *gasp* using irc lingo
[02:10] <__mikem> why wouldn't we want to go to #debian
[02:10] <jadaz87> mischevious what port whould you recommend?
[02:10] <[ex] hungry-hobo> furthermore you could get banne dlike I did
[02:10] <__mikem> oh
[02:10] <Mischevious> jadaz87, anything over 1024
[02:10] <Arafangion> jadaz87: It's to do with ports below 1024 being "privilaged" ports, and those above 32000 (I think) being 'random' ports (I forget the technical term)
[02:10] <amphi> [ex] hungry-hobo: there be dragons? ;)
[02:10] <[ex] hungry-hobo> because i insist that the person who cant fogure out that u=you is the moron..not me
[02:10] <Matthewv> joseph_, just deselect all the items in the menu to make the menu invisible
[02:10] <[ex] hungry-hobo> amphi: lol
[02:10] <Arafangion> Mischevious: That may not be enough when dealing with routers.
[02:10] <__mikem> does anyone know if any stress test programs like prime95 are available for linux
[02:11] <[ex] hungry-hobo> amphi: yes...many flames going on in that channel :)
[02:11] <Mischevious> Arafangion, not sure, as i don't use a router. but if he forwards it it should work..
[02:11] <[ex] hungry-hobo> and many poor slobby geeks who didn't get puissy in high school :(
[02:11] <Matthewv> joseph_, or you can delete every item in the menu (right-click -> delete) and then do the same tothe menu
[02:11] <Mischevious> haha
[02:11] <tritium> [ex] hungry-hobo: language please
[02:11] <[ex] hungry-hobo> sorry..heh
[02:11] <jadaz87> mischevious the problem is i cannot do forwarding
[02:11] <Mischevious> why not?
[02:11] <[ex] hungry-hobo> im trying to adjust to all of freenodes elite rules
[02:11] <Chicago60657> hey...i just had RCN (cable co.) install a cable modem on my system...firefox works perfectly under windows98, but can't get it to work when i boot into ubuntu...suggestions please!
[02:11] <joseph_> Matthewv: That's going to take a LONG time, there are lots of items.
[02:11] <jadaz87> my father has passworded the admin account for the router
[02:12] <Arafangion> Mischevious: He does not have that option.
[02:12] <Mischevious> jadaz87, LOl
[02:12] <joseph_> Matthewv: It won't let me right-click
[02:12] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Try a high port number.
[02:12] <jadaz87> mischevious lol
[02:12] <jadaz87> arafangion Testing port 55632 ... NAT Error
[02:12] <amphi> [ex] hungry-hobo: #debian doesn't like being #ubuntu_part2 ;)
[02:12] <[ex] hungry-hobo> Chicago60657: are you using an ethernet card ot the usb cable?
[02:12] <Matthewv> joseph_, You can't right-click on the name of the item??
[02:12] <Mischevious> jadaz87, dont forget to add the port to firestarter also
[02:12] <Arafangion> jadaz87: Tough luck :)  You could always try tunneling out the https port... 443 (I think)
[02:13] <Chicago60657> ethernet
[02:13] <Arafangion> Mischevious: HE IS NOT RUNNING A FIREWALL.
[02:13] <jadaz87> mischevious i do not use firestarter
[02:13] <joseph_> Matthewv: No.  I cannot right-click on the name of the item.
[02:13] <[ex] hungry-hobo> amphi: yeah but i didnt ask any ubuntu questions in there ..heh..matter of fact i wasnt asking any quiestions
[02:13] <Mischevious> Arafangion, yes he is, iptables is a built in firewal
[02:13] <joseph_> Matthewv: Within the "Edit Menus" dialogue.
[02:13] <Mischevious> Arafangion, donot yell at me.
[02:13] <void^> jadaz87: make sure 'java -version' doesn't mention libgcj, and make sure `iptables -L` doesn't say policy drop
[02:13] <[ex] hungry-hobo> i made the mistake of saying u instead of you and had about 15 people jump on me
[02:13] <amphi> [ex] hungry-hobo: you were banned for being too silent??
[02:13] <amphi> [ex] hungry-hobo: ah...
[02:13] <Mischevious> i know more about p2p then anyone.
[02:13] <__mikem> [ex] hungry-hobo where did this happen again
[02:13] <[ex] hungry-hobo> amphi: no i was banned for sticking up to like the 15 people who were jumpoing me
[02:14] <[ex] hungry-hobo> and they were jumping me because I said U
[02:14] <Mischevious> jadaz87, sudo apt-get install firestarter
[02:14] <amphi> [ex] hungry-hobo: dpkg told you about 'Ur of the Chaldees' no doubt
[02:14] <Chicago60657> [ex] hungry-hobo: ethernet
[02:14] <Mischevious> and then add a rule to it for the port you want to use.
[02:14] <[ex] hungry-hobo> and they called me  a moron for saying it when i insisted whoever canty figure out that u= you in todays world is a sad sack :)
[02:14] <Arafangion> Mischevious: By default, iptables should be a very permissive firewall.
[02:14] <Mischevious> Arafangion, wrong
[02:14] <Mischevious> Arafangion, it blocks all inbound
[02:14] <amphi> [ex] hungry-hobo: personally, I find such usages ugly
[02:14] <Matthewv> joseph_, u could just deselect all the item... maybe 5.10 menu editor doesn't do the right-click thing
[02:14] <void^> not on ubuntu from what i hear, comes with policy drop
[02:15] <[ex] hungry-hobo> they even had a bot damn near flood me off with some kinda wiers crap about u isnt part of english language oir some odd stuff
[02:15] <void^> that iptables default produces a lot of lemmings in support channels.
[02:15] <Arafangion> Mischevious: Interesting, I didn't have that problem with my LFS system.
[02:15] <[ex] hungry-hobo> amphi: but yeah man..after 10 yrs plus on irc it's hard not to pick these up
[02:15] <[ex] hungry-hobo> i mean i know little 6 year old that know what lol and rofl and etc means
[02:15] <[ex] hungry-hobo> its like people cant accept that yeah..there is a language of its own on irc
[02:15] <tritium> [ex] hungry-hobo: enough already.  Take it to #ubuntu-offtopic please.
[02:15] <Mischevious> [ex] hungry-hobo, can you take it elsewhere as it is off-topic and stupid ?/
[02:15] <[ex] hungry-hobo> we dont flame '[colored' people for speaking ebonics
[02:16] <[ex] hungry-hobo> and we dont flame mexicans for speaking spanish
[02:16] <Mischevious> ban please
[02:16] <Mischevious> -.-
[02:16] <[ex] hungry-hobo> so why flame someone on iIRC for speakingIRc :)
[02:16] <ompaul> !offtopic
[02:16] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[02:16] <tritium> [ex] hungry-hobo: no more please
[02:16] <amphi> [ex] hungry-hobo: those are different from 'u' for 'you', 'ur' for 'you are', and so on, IMHO - but these are necessarily arbitrary distinctions on aesthetic basis ;)
[02:16] <[ex] hungry-hobo> well you guys asked so i told..you diodnt want to know you didnt have tyo ask :)
[02:16] <__mikem> Mischevious is there a stabilty testing program like prime95 available for linux? Please, its kind of important.
[02:16] <Chicago60657> hey...i just had RCN (cable co.) install a cable modem on my system...firefox works perfectly under windows98, but can't get it to work when i boot intoubuntu...i'm using ethernet...suggestions  please!
[02:16] <[ex] hungry-hobo> but dont ask then be an assshole because i respond to you please thats just rude
[02:16] <__mikem> Mischevious is there a stabilty testing program like prime95 available for linux? Please, its kind of important.
[02:17] <amphi> ompaul: ok ;)
[02:17] <Mischevious> __mikem, i'm not aware of one, sorry. but you can run memtest ?
[02:17] <__mikem> ok thanks
[02:17] <ubuntu> hola
[02:17] <Mischevious> hi
[02:17] <tritium> !es
[02:17] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[02:17] <jadaz87> !es
[02:17] <Mischevious> lol
[02:17] <Mischevious> i doubt he is spanish
[02:18] <Mischevious> yo hablo espanol porfavor ?
[02:18] <Chicago60657> am i better off using an ubuntu forum?  irc isn't too responsive
[02:18] <__mikem> ubuntu: hablas tu en espenol
[02:18] <Mischevious> Chicago60657, sure it is, ask the question
[02:18] <ubuntu> Hey newbie to linux...I'm running live CD...How to a run an application(one that's not packaged with unbuntu)
[02:18] <leagris> bonsoir
[02:18] <Chicago60657> i did...twice
[02:18] <Chicago60657> hey...i just had RCN (cable co.) install a cable modem on my system...firefox works perfectly under windows98, but can't get it to work when i boot intoubuntu...suggestions  please!
[02:18] <Mischevious> ubuntu, download it.
[02:18] <tritium> Chicago60657: please don't repeat too frequently
[02:18] <Mischevious> Chicago60657, do you have internet at all @ ubuntu ?
[02:18] <ubuntu> I have it on the desktop but it will not run
[02:19] <Managu> Chicago60657, did you have to install any extra software in windows98 to get it to work?  If so, what?
[02:19] <__mikem> ubuntu, you can run apt on a live run as if it were a full install
[02:19] <amphi> Chicago60657: the only cable modem I've used, dhclient set up the interface fine; it needed to be reset if you plugged a different machine into it for that to work *sigh*
[02:19] <Chicago60657> Managu: no...direct connection...works fine under windows
[02:19] <joseph> I'm still getting the kubuntu splash screen even though I removed kubuntu-desktop.  Does anyone know how to get back to the ubuntu splash screen?
[02:19] <amphi> Chicago60657: I also connected to it via ethernet, not usb
[02:20] <ubuntu> That's greek to me....
[02:20] <_jason> ubuntu: tell joseph about usplashchange
[02:20] <Mischevious> Chicago60657, is it connected via ethernet
[02:20] <Mischevious> ?
[02:20] <_jason> ubotu: tell joseph about usplashchange
[02:20] <Chicago60657> Mischevious: i'm connect via ethernet under windows...it works...but not when i boot into ubuntu
[02:21] <Managu> Chicago60657: does the cable modem talk PPPoE?
[02:21] <joseph> _jason:  There is only 1 program which provides usplash-artwork.so
[02:21] <joseph> (/usr/lib/usplash/usplash-default.so). Nothing to configure.
[02:21] <joseph> I've already done that...
[02:21] <Mischevious> Managu, cable modems don't use PPOE
[02:21] <joseph> and it STILL says kubuntu
[02:21] <Chicago60657> Managu: i have no idea
[02:21] <Mischevious> Managu, dsl uses ppoe
[02:21] <Managu> Mischevious, I agree, generally
[02:21] <_jason> joseph: did you issue the dpkg-reconfigure command?
[02:21] <joseph> no
[02:21] <Aisi> ubuntu, what program, and how much experience with linux/ubuntu do you have?
[02:21] <_jason> joseph: try that
[02:21] <Chicago60657> it's not a dsl modem
[02:21] <Mischevious> Managu, i have yet to hear of a cable isp that uses pppoe
[02:21] <joseph> _jason:  what's the command?
[02:21] <_jason> ubotu: tell joseph about usplashchange
[02:21] <ubuntu> Can appz be installed running live CD?
[02:21] <Mischevious> cable = dhcp
[02:22] <amphi> Chicago60657: what happens if you do 'sudo dhclient ethX' in a term? (replace X with the 0, 1, or whatever it is)
[02:22] <_jason> joseph: oh someone changed it, I guess you can just do the update-initramfs one
[02:22] <Aisi> ubuntu, yes. but they will disappear when you reboot
[02:22] <crimsun> _jason: yes, I just changed it, because that's all that's necessary.
[02:22] <jadaz87> does anyone know why azureus deleted the torrents i was already downloading when i updated?
[02:22] <Chicago60657> amphi...i haven't run any commands under root...i was going to ask if i should
[02:22] <Mischevious> jadaz87, nope.. weird
[02:22] <joseph> _jason: okay I'll test it later thanks
[02:22] <crimsun> reconfiguring linux-image-$(uname -r) is needlessly overkill
[02:22] <Mischevious> Chicago60657, use sudo
[02:23] <ubuntu> Aisi...when I click on the installer it just comes up with an error
[02:23] <_jason> crimsun: makes sense
[02:23] <jadaz87> mischevious when it went to pdate it says Core PAtcher Failed :-\
[02:23] <Chicago60657> is there a package i need to install to get ethernet working under ubuntu?
[02:23] <Mischevious> jadaz87, what ver
[02:23] <Chicago60657> or i just need to configure something?
[02:24] <Mischevious> jadaz87, it's always best just to download the files from the sourceforge and just run ./azureus
[02:24] <jadaz87> oh ok
[02:24] <amphi> Chicago60657: try the command I gave you and see what happens
[02:24] <jadaz87> i think i will purge the deb file that i got from the ubuntu wiki
[02:24] <void^> good plan
[02:24] <Aisi> ubuntu, hmmm, maybe I should actually test it myself... i remember it working, but that isn't enough to help you :(... now I wonder where my live cd is...
[02:25] <Chicago60657> amphi: ok...but i'll need to reboot (i'm under windows)...what kind of response should i see after i run the command?  what am i looking for?
[02:25] <Mischevious> Chicago60657, anything, or nothing if nothing then it probably worked. if something come here and tell us.
[02:25] <Chicago60657> ok
[02:26] <amphi> Chicago60657: if it works, it should configure your interface for you; if it doesn't work, perhaps try resetting the cable modem and run the command again
[02:26] <Mischevious> missed him :-p
[02:26] <amphi> yeah
[02:26] <amphi> festina lente ;)
[02:26] <Mischevious> o.0
[02:27] <gabbah> for some reason, i always get the same session when i start up ubuntu... always the same windows pop open, it's like I'm stuck in time! What's happening?
[02:27] <joseph> why aren't the compiz and xgl packages in the archive.ubuntu.com repositories?
[02:27] <Mischevious> gabbah, go to system>prefs>sessions
[02:27] <gabbah> Mischevious, yeah been there
[02:27] <ubuntu> Aisi..Damn sure don't want to jack with the Hard drive if this is that hard to use...
[02:27] <jadaz87> mischevious now how do i install azureus from the sourceforge site?
[02:28] <Mischevious> jadaz87, just download it, cd into the files and type ./azureus
[02:28] <jadaz87> oh ok :-)
[02:28] <Mischevious> download+extract the tar+gz
[02:28] <Mischevious> best to put it in your home dir
[02:28] <Mischevious> and make a launcher on the gnome panel
[02:28] <jadaz87> which whould be tar zxvf <archive name>
[02:28] <Mischevious> that way when new ver you just replace the files
[02:28] <Mischevious> xvvz
[02:28] <Mischevious> i believe
[02:28] <Mischevious> xfvz *
[02:29] <Mischevious> or just use archive maager
[02:29] <void^> perhaps substitute z with j, should be bz2
[02:29] <Mischevious> they have bz2 and .gz
[02:29] <Mischevious> :-)
[02:29] <jadaz87> mischevious that is a problem i having creating launchers that actually launch things :-\
[02:29] <Aisi> ubuntu, something not working doesn't mean it is hard to use, it means it is broken. installing applications in the install version very definately works.
[02:29] <Mischevious> jadaz87, how so?
[02:29] <jadaz87> mischevous most of the time i actually have to go into the directory and launch it
[02:29] <jadaz87> like for limeware
[02:29] <jadaz87> limewire
[02:30] <Mischevious> well limewire has a weird dir
[02:30] <Mischevious> thats why
[02:30] <jadaz87> the launch for that is a runlime.sh
[02:30] <Mischevious> but other stuff should always be in /usr/bin
[02:30] <Mischevious> yea
[02:30] <Mischevious> i had that problem once also
[02:30] <jadaz87> oh ok
[02:30] <Mischevious> most stuff is /usr/bin/programname
[02:30] <Mischevious> 99% of stuff actually
[02:30] <amphi> jadaz87: you can also use ~/bin
[02:30] <gabbah> when i'm logout of GDM and am in the shell the monitor gets lines and acts weird, and it's very hard to make out the text. what could be wrong?
[02:31] <Aisi> ubuntu, the live cd is really meant to just show you an approximation of the full and installed ubuntu. (though it can be used for useful things too)
[02:31] <jadaz87> where whould i place the folder you said in the home directory?
[02:31] <amphi> gabbah: broken framebuffer console?
[02:31] <gabbah> amphi, umm.. i dunno u tell me?
[02:31] <Aisi> ubuntu, out of curiosity, what are you doing to try to install apps?
[02:31] <void^> ati drivers, or worse, ati drivers+framebuffer console.. wonderful way to crash a system quickly
[02:32] <Mischevious> jadaz87, yea, make it .azureus
[02:32] <Mischevious> jadaz87, if you already have a .Azureus folder delete it
[02:32] <Mischevious> make sure it's lower case .azureus
[02:32] <gabbah> i have nvidia drivers
[02:32] <ubuntu> I can't run one program....can't remeber the last time a micro installer "was broken"....??
[02:32] <jadaz87> what does the period in front of the directory do?
[02:33] <amphi> gabbah: you could try rebooting and editing the kernel command line in grub to remove the 'vga=whatever' and 'video=whatever' options and see if it behaves better
[02:33] <void^> jadaz87: points to the current directory
[02:33] <amphi> gabbah: I don't know about nvidia - perhaps it's a known issue for your card?
[02:33] <gabbah> amphi, is there a howto on that?
[02:34] <amphi> gabbah: I know not
[02:35] <gabbah> amphi, the problems actually start as soon as the intel boot manager starts... then i get the kind of screen i got in window when i had too high refreshrate for my LCD monitor
[02:35] <Syco54645> can anyone suggest a cd burning software that will burn video dvds?  i authored a dvd and now i cannot burn it because k3b is being stupid ever since the new kde came out.
[02:35] <jadaz87> so for the launcher the command whould be ".Azureus"?
[02:35] <Syco54645> jadaz87: it is ./azureus
[02:35] <amphi> gabbah: intel boot manager?
[02:36] <jetscreamer> there is also .Azureus
[02:36] <jetscreamer> nm oops
[02:36] <jadaz87> Syco54645 i put that and it says No such file or directory
[02:36] <void^> or, /somerandompath/somedirectory/azureus
[02:36] <gabbah> amphi, yep.. even before ubuntu has loaded. that has never happened before
[02:36] <Syco54645> jadaz87: then point it to the path like _pathtoazureus_azureus
[02:36] <gabbah> amphi, even before ubuntu has booted actually
[02:37] <Syco54645> jadaz87: / _pathtoazureus/azureus rather
[02:37] <fiendskull9> how do i change the choice names on Grub?
[02:37] <Mischevious> fiendskull9, edit the grub config file
[02:37] <fiendskull9> ex. - from Ubuntu Kernel x.xx to Ubuntu Breezy Badger
[02:37] <Mischevious> fiendskull9, but be careful ...
[02:37] <amphi> gabbah: it's like that if you go into the bios?
[02:37] <fiendskull9> Mischevious, wheres that file at?
[02:37] <gabbah> amphi, but the problem is much worse when i run ubuntu and GDM, then logout... and for instance use nano to edit a file.. wow i can't even see the text becuase it's so fucked up. it gradually gets worse
[02:38] <jadaz87> syco54645 i did that command: "/home/joejaxx/Azureus"
[02:38] <Mischevious> fiendskull9, umm....... one sec
[02:38] <jadaz87> with out the quotation marks
[02:38] <gabbah> amphi, prolly not bios no
[02:38] <nickrud> fiendskull9, edit the title lines in /boot/menu/grub.lst
[02:38] <Syco54645> jadaz87: where is azureus located?
[02:38] <Mischevious> /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:38] <jadaz87> /home/joejaxx/Azureus
[02:38] <jadaz87> in my home folder
[02:38] <amphi> gabbah: I have no idea - are you using a nasssty proprietary driver?
[02:38] <jadaz87> which is /home/joejaxx
[02:38] <Mischevious> jadaz87, i told you the best way to do it
[02:38] <whyameye_> any way to in ubuntu to do the windows "map a network drive" using SSH?
[02:38] <jadaz87> on the file system
[02:38] <theTruth> hey hey
[02:38] <gabbah> amphi, nono.. used easyUbuntu to get nvidea drivers
[02:38] <Syco54645> jadaz87: is Azureus a folder?
[02:39] <theTruth> how can I tell breezy to use a partcular Monitor that I am using?
[02:39] <Mischevious> jadaz87, in the azureus folder their is a file azureus
[02:39] <Mischevious> run that
[02:39] <Mischevious>  /azureusfolder/azureus
[02:39] <Mischevious> ez
[02:39] <amphi> gabbah: I expect those are the prorietary binary drivers
[02:39] <fiendskull9> Mischevious & nickrud , should i backup the grub.lst file onto my external hdd just incase?
[02:39] <theTruth> Mischevious: run what?
[02:39] <Mischevious> fiendskull9, use gedit it will make menu.lst~
[02:39] <nickrud> fiendskull9, backups are never a bad idea
[02:39] <Syco54645> Mischevious: i was getting to that
[02:39] <Mischevious> fiendskull9, but yea be careful bro
[02:40] <fiendskull9> ok
[02:40] <gabbah> amphi, if u say so.. but i thought nvidia had good support for linux
[02:40] <theTruth> Mischevious: how can I tell breezy to use a partcular Monitor that I am using?
[02:40] <fiendskull9> i dont have anything important on this drive anyway
[02:40] <jadaz87> yeah it is azureus.sh
[02:40] <raindog> I followed these instructions and I'm still not getting my modem to work.  Note:  I was able to get it to work the other day but no longer.  Can anyone help me with this?
[02:40] <raindog> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto?action=show&redirect=SettingUpModems#head-cc17ea0ff3df391406e74527f1aed569be04709f
[02:40] <fiendskull9> ive reinstalled nix and windows so mny times.
[02:40] <nickrud> fiendskull9, stick with editing the title lines, & you'll be ok
[02:40] <fiendskull9> nickrud, ok man, thats all im doin :)
[02:40] <fiendskull9> thanks guys
[02:40] <gabbah> amphi, i mean, they do have specific drivers for linux.. and i heard they're good
[02:41] <amphi> gabbah: not good enough, it would seem; you could google, if no one here has an idea
[02:41] <theTruth> nickrud: I am using a NEC C500 monitor! how can I tell breezy to use a partcular Monitor?
[02:41] <gabbah> amphi, alright.. thanks man
[02:41] <jadaz87> ok right now i have this as the command "/home/joejaxx/Azureus/azureus.sh"
[02:41] <Managu> raindog, you're probably going to have to provide more information -- my first thought is that you've got a winmodem, but you seem to discount that.
[02:41] <amphi> gabbah: there may be an nvidia channel for all I know
[02:41] <theTruth> !monitors
[02:41] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, theTruth
[02:41] <nickrud> theTruth, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg should recognize your monitor and set it up properly. Note should
[02:41] <theTruth> !change monitors
[02:41] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, theTruth
[02:41] <Syco54645> can anyone suggest dvd burning soft to me.  k3b isnt working right
[02:41] <gabbah> amphi, yeah :)
[02:42] <theTruth> nickrud: ok thanks
[02:42] <amphi> gabbah: I'm lucky, my ati card is sufficiently trailing edge to have a free driver
[02:42] <raindog> Managu:  I have a Lucent Winmodem and I've spent days going thru the instructions on the wiki to no avail.  A few days ago I installed a driver for it and it worked, but the next day...nothing.
[02:42] <void^> jadaz87: well, the azureus tar.gz contains a directory called "azureus" which contains an executable script called "azureus"
[02:42] <gabbah> amphi, omg, u lucky b.. :)
[02:42] <amphi> gabbah: yeah, embrace the trailing edge ;)
[02:42] <Managu> raindog: try doing the whole install over?
[02:43] <jadaz87> yes
[02:43] <jadaz87> i know
[02:43] <jadaz87> i do not know why it is no working
[02:43] <gabbah> amphi, there is an nvidia channel :D
[02:43] <jadaz87> i guess i will just have to manually run it :-\
[02:43] <amphi> raindog: the ltmodem driver worked pretty well in my experience
[02:43] <void^> jadaz87: err, so you renamed that script to azureus.sh and moved it to ~/Azureus?
[02:44] <gabbah> amphi, oh well time for sleep.. nighty night
[02:44] <nickrud> raindog, breezy or dapper (I've had trouble on dapper, breezy was just that)
[02:44] <amphi> gabbah: 'night
[02:44] <raindog> managu, no, the reason why - on the day that I got the modem working (after days of work) I upgraded all the packages (40+mb)  I don't really want to do that again.  I'm using the ltmodem driver.  Breezy.
[02:44] <juztin_> can someone recommend me a good game i can get from synaptic?
[02:44] <jadaz87> void^ no i did not
[02:44] <jadaz87> i did not do anything to it
[02:44] <jadaz87> all i did was extract the folder
[02:44] <ariel> juztin_, xjump.
[02:44] <jadaz87> renamed it .azureus (the folder)
[02:44] <jetscreamer> flodder
[02:45] <jadaz87> and tried to make a launcher
[02:45] <raindog> Managu:  The device manager lists the modem.  I reinstalled the ltmodem driver today as a test...same thing.
[02:45] <void^> jadaz87: but it's neither called azureus.sh nor in a directory called Azureus
[02:45] <Chicago60657> amphi: OK, i'm back...here's the output for when i entered 'sudo dhclient eth0': sit0: unknown hardware address type 776 sit0: unknown hardware address type 776 Listening on LPF/eth0/00:50:bf:19:83:9e Sending on LPF/eth0/00:50:bf:19:83:9e Sending on Socket/fallback DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8 DHCPOFFER from 216.220.64.1 DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 255.255.255.255...
[02:45] <Chicago60657> ...port 67 DHCPACK from 216.220.64.1 bound to 216.220.64.55 -- renewal in 17436 seconds.
[02:45] <amphi> raindog: what device is your dialer program using? /dev/modem or /dev/ttyLT0 or whatever it calls it?
[02:46] <void^> jadaz87: doesn't it have a browse button that allows you to simply select the file?
[02:46] <jadaz87> no
[02:46] <vbgunz> hello everyone... I have a script I hacked and would like to put it into the path... What is the best way to do this?
[02:46] <vbgunz> will just dropping it in / do the trick?
[02:46] <amphi> Chicago60657: sounds like you're up and limping along; eth0 should have been configured correctly
[02:46] <raindog> amphi:  I believe it was on dev/modem, but I've been messing with all the settings in the last few days trying to get it to work again.
[02:46] <void^> jadaz87: well, find where your `azureus' file is, point exactly to this file.
[02:46] <cafuego> either /usr/lcoal/bin or (for you only) add ~/.bin to the path and plonk it there.
[02:46] <nickrud> vbgunz, putting it in /usr/local/bin is a good place
[02:46] <jadaz87> the directory is hidden because michevious told me to put a period infront of the folder name
[02:47] <ubuntu> Aisi...downloaded the program to the desktop..when I click on it, it gives an option to run...but it does nothing
[02:47] <amphi> raindog: /dev/modem is only a symlink; you might need to modprobe the modules manually, lt_modem and lt_serial IIRC
[02:47] <Chicago60657> amphi: when i first install ubuntu (hoary hedgehog) i had no internet connectivity...could that have something to do with it?
[02:47] <vbgunz> nickrud: ok!
[02:47] <amphi> raindog: and it's probably better to use /dev/ttyLT0 or whatever than trust the symlink
[02:47] <nickrud> vbgunz, although, I personally use the ~/.bin that cafuego mentioned :)
[02:48] <raindog> amphi:  when I modprobe them it errors and says modules don't exist
[02:48] <sHaDe> n8all
[02:49] <nickrud> raindog, you probably need to install the linux-restricted-modules package that matches your running kernel
[02:49] <amphi> Chicago60657: no idea; those messages show that the interface was configured; route should show eth0 being the default route. Did you try to resolve an ip address (host google.com, for example) ?
[02:49] <void^> jadaz87: no, you're not supposed to rename the extracted azureus directory, he was talking about the azureus config dir (which was hidden to begin with)
[02:49] <raindog> nicktrud:  I already have them installed.  That's the first thing in the wiki.
[02:49] <raindog> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto?action=show&redirect=SettingUpModems#head-cc17ea0ff3df391406e74527f1aed569be04709f
[02:49] <jadaz87> is that directory inside the extracted azureus folder?
[02:49] <amphi> raindog: are you running a different kernel? if so, you'll need to rebuild and reinstall the ltmodem driver
[02:50] <juztin_> gahar!
[02:50] <amphi> raindog: or listen to nickrud ;)
[02:50] <Chicago60657> amphi: you mean resolve a host outside of firefox?  within a terminal?  how would i do that?  (i'm not too strong on the CLI)
[02:50] <nickrud> raindog, I got ltmodem-2.6-alk-7.tar.bz2 off the net and compiled it myself
[02:50] <raindog> amphi:  I can try a rebuild.  I've tried everything else.
[02:51] <amphi> Chicago60657: in a term, try 'host google.com' without quotes and see if it resolves the ip addr
[02:51] <Chicago60657> amphi: OK...and if it does resolve then why isn't firefox working?
[02:51] <void^> jadaz87: it's an archive. if you extracted it you get a folder with files in it, one of these files is the azureus script. run it
[02:51] <void^> -ed
[02:51] <amphi> Chicago60657: if it doesn't, cat /etc/resolv.conf to see if any nameservers are configured
[02:52] <jadaz87> what is the force end task command sequence for linux the one likw Ctrl + Alt + Delete for windows
[02:52] <juztin_> can someone recommend me a good game i can get from synaptic?  besides xjump?  (its just okay)
[02:52] <jadaz87> void^ ok hold on
[02:52] <Chicago60657> amphi: maybe i need to add my user to a group too?
[02:52] <_jason> juztin_: torcs is a good racing one
[02:52] <juztin_> _jason, k thx
[02:52] <raindog> nickrud amphi:  I'll rebuild and see if that helps.  thanks for your time and advice.
[02:52] <Xenguy> jadaz87: pkill name is 1 way
[02:52] <_jason> juztin_: supertux, tuxracer are fun too
[02:53] <Xenguy> jadaz87: IIUC
[02:53] <nickrud> raindog, as a general rule, you need to recompile any extra kernel modules you use each time you upgrade your kernel
[02:53] <juztin_> _jason, k, thanks :)
[02:53] <jadaz87> what is the graphicall representation
[02:53] <nickrud> jadaz87, alt-f2 xkill and left click the window works nicely also
[02:54] <jadaz87> nickrud thank you
[02:54] <Xenguy> jadaz87: xkill   ?
[02:54] <raindog> nickrud:  thanks.  I'm still getting used to this...obviously.
[02:54] <Bigdog> Can the live CD do anything?!! It won't let you install a single program
[02:54] <nickrud> raindog, there are so so many general rules to learn ;)
[02:55] <sgleo87> need help with Samba in Ubuntu....when I try to access from windows it asks for a username and password...what do I have to put int there?
[02:55] <nickrud> juztin_, I cannot believe noone's mentioned frozenbubble
[02:56] <sgleo87> anyone?
[02:56] <LinuxJones> sgleo87: don't you have to create the user account for the windows user on the samba machine or something ?
[02:56] <juztin_> nickrud, thx, adding it to the list lol
[02:56] <jadaz87> ok void^ i finished the configuration wizard now what?
[02:56] <Chicago60657> amphi: sorry...do i also need to add my user to a group too?
[02:57] <void^> jadaz87: start using it?
[02:57] <LinuxJones> sgleo87: sorry I don't run windows so I am just guessing, there are some samba tutorials on the wiki page that might help
[02:57] <jadaz87> void^ what about the configuration folder you were talking abotu before?
[02:57] <subtlehustle> hey folks, im new to ubuntu, and fairly new to linux.. i have a question about mounting my windows partition. gnome's file browser shows me that /windows is owned by root, but if there is no real root account on the machine, how do i set it so that all users can access it?
[02:57] <amphi> Chicago60657: for what?
[02:58] <sgleo87> LinuxJones: ok, I'll check those out
[02:58] <nickrud> !tell subtlehustle about mountwindows
[02:58] <Chicago60657> amphi: i vaguely remember having to add my user to an 'audo' group to be able to hear audio...could that be part of my internet connectivity issue?
[02:58] <void^> jadaz87: i wasn't, and you don't have to worry about it, really
[02:58] <jadaz87> oh ok
[02:58] <amphi> Chicago60657: no
[02:58] <nickrud> subtlehustle, check out the wiki link in that ubotu message
[02:58] <subtlehustle> nickrud: thanks for the link. i'll rtfm. :)
[02:58] <Chicago60657> amphi: ok...i'll do what you advised and report back
[02:58] <amphi> Chicago60657: after you ran dhclient, how did you test?
[02:58] <amphi> arrghhh
[02:59] <nickrud> subtlehustle, look for the section where it tells you about changing fmask & dmask
[02:59] <subtlehustle> nickrud: k, thanks
[02:59] <nickrud> subtlehustle, and the f means 'fine' by the way ;)
[03:00] <subtlehustle> nickrud: i always thought it was 'read the fantastic manual' ;)
[03:00] <nickrud> subtlehustle, you'd never say fantastic if you'd read many linux manuals
[03:00] <Xenguy> nah, scottish accent, read the fooken manual :P
[03:01] <vars> hey i rm -r /tmp    how do i get it back in proper wr properties
[03:01] <cyphase> does anyone think we should have different file extensions and icons for files that are basically a .tar.gz file?
[03:01] <Xenguy> hehe, you need that sticky bit
[03:01] <subtlehustle> nickrud, lol. to be honest i hardly ever rtfm, i just barge into irc and ask things that are covered in sticky forum threads. :D
[03:01] <jadaz87> void^ no what about the launcher
[03:02] <Yomega_Killer> quit
[03:02] <vars> any one?
[03:02] <void^> jadaz87: make it launch that script
[03:02] <jadaz87> what should be in the "command" input box if the azureus folder is in my home folder
[03:02] <jadaz87> oh ok
[03:02] <amphi> vars: see Xenguy above
[03:02] <nickrud> subtlehustle, I didn't even know irc existed when I started with linux, I am uncomfortably familiar with manuals
[03:03] <subtlehustle> nickrud, well thank goodness for that, or guys like me would be out of luck.
[03:03] <vars> what sticky bit that makes no sences i was looking for chmod blank
[03:04] <Frogzoo> jadaz87: I think 'azureus'
[03:04] <Xenguy> vars: I'd tell you but it's been awhile
[03:04] <ddg_bluesky> How do I put the calender on my desktop?
[03:04] <amphi> vars: /tmp should be rwx for all, and have the sticky bit set
[03:04] <brenner> ddg_bluesky: gdeskcal is nice
[03:05] <ddg_bluesky> brenner hey there, oh really how do I install it?
[03:05] <amphi> vars: chmod 1777 /tmp should do it
[03:05] <brenner> ddg_bluesky: enable universe repo, then use any apt tool
[03:05] <vars> amphi, thanks
[03:05] <Xenguy> amphi: I was gonna guess 7771 after scanning the man page, but yer probably right
[03:06] <ddg_bluesky> sudo gdeskcal install?
[03:06] <jadaz87> ok i have one last question how do i get Azureus to be the default torrent program in gnome?
[03:06] <brenner> ddg_bluesky: more like sudo apt-get install gdeskcal
[03:06] <jetscreamer> sudo apt-get install whatever
[03:06] <vars> firefox still segfaults
[03:06] <ddg_bluesky> brenner right thank you
[03:06] <Samhain> do you guys have any tips on getting a joystick to work? It's an old joystick that is plugged into the gameport. calibration utilities are not recognizing it
[03:06] <vars> but runs fine with sudo
[03:06] <ariel> is there an expert at debugging mesa/glx/dri here?
[03:07] <jetscreamer> apt-get install joystick after you make sure all the proper modules are loaded for the kernel
[03:07] <ariel> i can't get my dri to be recognized
[03:07] <Samhain> how do I know which modules need to be loaded?
[03:07] <amphi> vars: it's bollixed some file in $HOME, try mv-ing the config dir
[03:07] <jetscreamer> well the gameport one, for starters
[03:07] <jetscreamer> then one of the joystick ones
[03:08] <Samhain> modprobe?
[03:08] <jetscreamer> or the usb ones if usb js.. and hid modules
[03:08] <jetscreamer> yeah or my favorite, modconf
[03:08] <jetscreamer> you don't have to know the names you get a list with modconf
[03:08] <Samhain> ok, i'll try it
[03:08] <jetscreamer> !info modconf
[03:08] <Xenguy> prepend
[03:08] <ubotu> modconf: (Device Driver Configuration), section universe/base, is optional. Version: 0.2.49 (breezy), Packaged size: 1030 kB, Installed size: 3720 kB
[03:08] <ddg_bluesky> brenner ok I was able to install it, where would I find it?
[03:08] <subtlehustle> awww, ntfs partitions cant be written to when mounted in linux? i could swear i wrote things to it in suse?
[03:09] <subtlehustle> or am i misreading the docs?
[03:09] <void^> there are hacks to write ntfs, but usually, you just shouldn't
[03:09] <amphi> subtlehustle: captive ntfs perhaps
[03:10] <Arrick> I am trying to get ubunto to load as the only OS and I cant seem to get it running.
[03:10] <brenner> ddg_bluesky: it doesn't have a menu entry.  alt+f2, then type: gdeskcal
[03:10] <subtlehustle> i havent used fat32 in years.. i wonder why its an issue?
[03:10] <brenner> ariel: nvidia or ati?
[03:11] <ariel> brenner, neither, intel 945gm
[03:11] <Arrick> it says starting printer and network services and then the screen goes blank, Can anyone help me?
[03:11] <ariel> brenner, i also have an nvidia on this machine, but it's not supported yet, so i don't even bother
[03:11] <brenner> ariel: ah.  have you checked if the driver supports it?
[03:11] <Arrick> HELP
[03:11] <brenner> the intel one that is
[03:11] <nickrud> subtlehustle, it's too easy to kill an ntfs partition from linux , no one here recommends it
[03:11] <ompaul> !anyone
[03:11] <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>
[03:11] <ariel> brenner, well since a couple of days yeah
[03:12] <brenner> Arrick: you have to tell us the problem 1st
[03:12] <ariel> brenner, other people managed to make it work, but i didn't
[03:12] <brenner> whoops
[03:12] <subtlehustle> nickrud, i see. well i guess all i really want to do is grab an mp3 and avi from it to see if i my sound/video is working properly
[03:12] <ariel> brenner, my X seems to loads evertything fine, in the xlog it even says that the DRI is enabled
[03:12] <ddg_bluesky> brenner this is totally cool nice cal
[03:12] <Arrick> Brenner: all the modules seem to load and then it gets to starting printer and network something and then the screen goes blank
[03:12] <ariel> brenner, but glxinfo says it's not
[03:13] <brenner> ddg_bluesky: told you :)
[03:13] <subtlehustle> once i have updated my fstab, do i need to restart the machine for the changes to take effect?
[03:13] <ariel> subtlehustle, just type mout
[03:13] <ariel> subtlehustle, mount
[03:13] <Xenguy> subtlehustle: shouldn't need to
[03:13] <Arrick> brenner: I am running the default install, on a pentium mmx with 64 mgs of ram
[03:13] <brenner> Arrick: is this the install or the livecd?
[03:13] <subtlehustle> k
[03:13] <Arrick> install
[03:13] <subtlehustle> rebooting is one of those hard-to-kill windows habits that has been drilled into my head for so long
[03:13] <nickrud> subtlehustle, no, sudo mount -o remount /dev/hdxx
[03:13] <subtlehustle> heh
[03:13] <Arrick> brenner: install cd
[03:14] <subtlehustle> thx
[03:14] <lezingze> 
[03:14] <brenner> ariel: yeah, i don't know if i can help really.  i'm more familiar w/ ati cards.  have you checked the forum?
[03:14] <ddg_bluesky> brenner how do I get weather on my desktop?
[03:14] <raindog> When trying to build a new version of the Agere soft modem driver I get the following error message.   building Modem Controller Module for Agere Soft Modem   /bin/sh: cc:  command not found
[03:14] <lezingze> 
[03:14] <ariel> brenner, i'm trying to debug this since yesterday with the guys that managed to make it work on malone
[03:14] <lezingze> 
[03:14] <CanYouHelpMePlz> can somone tell me how to change the owner of a harddrive i just added, it's /dev/hdd1
[03:14] <raindog> make[1]  *** [agrmodem.a}  error 127
[03:14] <brenner> ddg_bluesky: there's a panel applet.  but you might want to check out gdesklets.
[03:15] <lezingze> 5555555555555555555555555555555
[03:15] <nickrud> dang, I don't remember the chinese channel
[03:15] <ArIeZ> anyone know how i can install rpm files
[03:15] <frank23> !zh
[03:15] <ubotu> frank23: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:15] <brenner> Arrick: you might want to actually try the server install w/ your specs
[03:15] <Arrick> ok
[03:15] <_jason> lezingze: /join #ubuntu-zh
[03:15] <amphi> raindog: apt-get install build-essential
[03:16] <Xenguy> ArIeZ: are you sure you have to?  ArIeZ alien will, but is usually a last resort
[03:16] <Arrick> brenner: I am new at this, so I do not really know what to do without the GUI, you have a location that can help?
[03:16] <subtlehustle> hrmm.. i edited fstab to give read permission to user 1000, but when i remounted it, i still cant access it.
[03:16] <CanYouHelpMePlz> can somone tell me how to change the owner of a harddrive i just added, it's /dev/hdd1
[03:16] <raindog> amphi:  I installed that already.  Let me guess, after updating the packages I have to install it again??
[03:16] <ArIeZ> its a limewire file
[03:16] <ArIeZ> is there any other way i can get it
[03:16] <amphi> raindog: oh, no, I doubt it
[03:17] <amphi> raindog: CC=/usr/bin/gcc make works?
[03:17] <brenner> Arrick: well, w/ the server install, you won't have a gui by default.  i was just saying that you might want to run it b/c 64 mbs RAM is gonna make gnome slow
[03:17] <Installer36> brenner > is alt+F2 for all programs that are not in the menu?
[03:17] <Arrick> brenner:
[03:18] <CanYouHelpMePlz> can somone tell me how to change the owner of a harddrive i just added, it's /dev/hdd1
[03:18] <raindog> amphi:  same error
[03:18] <Arrick> brenner: I understand that, however, I need to know a reference site I can access from this computer while I install that on the other one
[03:18] <nickrud> raindog, CC='gcc-3.4'
[03:18] <jadaz87> does anyone know if firestarter runs automatically when the computer starts?
[03:18] <Fujitsu> Yes, jadaz87, I'm pretty sure. There would be no point othersie.
[03:18] <Fujitsu> *otherwise
[03:19] <brenner> Installer36: it's just a run dialog.  you can add menu items with smeg if you want
[03:19] <nickrud> jadaz87, yes, it's startup script is linked in /etc/rc2.d
[03:19] <Installer36> Thanks
[03:19] <DarthShrine> Would anyone know why after I installed the libgtk2.0-dev package, tried to compile an app I made, I get "gcc:  -lgtk-x11-2.0: No such file or directory"? Are there any other packages I need?
[03:19] <DarthShrine> That's using `pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0`
[03:19] <subtlehustle> aha! success
[03:19] <ben_underscore> jadaz87, yes
[03:20] <subtlehustle> now if i can just figure out how to get my aeon flux dvd's to play, i'll be a happy monkey.
[03:20] <raindog> nickrud:  same error.  I'm missing something here.
[03:20] <brenner> Arrick: i'm sure someone could walk you through it in here
[03:20] <Arrick> ok
[03:20] <FunnyLookinHat> !dvd
[03:20] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[03:20] <nickrud> raindog, use   export CC='gcc-3.4'
[03:21] <brenner> DarthShrine: what app is this?
[03:21] <Arrick> brenner: ok, Im working on putting it into the slow thing now
[03:21] <DarthShrine> brenner, A simple GTK app I made.
[03:21] <raindog> nickrud:  for some reason build essentials are no longer listed in the package manager...wierd.  I didn't uninstall it.  That would cause the error, reinstalling it.
[03:21] <meng> is there a way to make xine work in dapper?
[03:21] <Arrick> brenner: when I go partition, do I want the on that has LVM or is the other on ok? I have a 20 gig hard drive.
[03:22] <nickrud> raindog, no, build essential gets you gcc 4 , you need to specifically install gcc-3.4 for kernel compiling
[03:22] <brenner> Arrick: i've never used LVM..
[03:22] <nickrud> raindog, the missing package is another issue ...
[03:22] <Arrick> ok
[03:22] <meng> dapper is missing loads of packages
[03:23] <Arrick> brenner: can you use large disks?
[03:23] <raindog> nickrud:  well, installing build essentials...can I install gcc 3.4 alongside 4.4??  I take it this is because the kernel was compiled with 4.3?
[03:23] <Chicago60657> amphi: here's the output: bpont@pooose:~$ host google.com;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
[03:23] <subtlehustle> can someone make ubotu tell me where to get mp3 playback codecs?
[03:23] <subtlehustle> i dont know how irc bots work
[03:23] <subtlehustle> :D
[03:24] <Chicago60657> bpont@pooose:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf search cable.rcn.com nameserver 207.172.3.8 nameserver 207.172.3.9

[03:24] <Arrick> brenner: thanks for the help and advice you've given so far
[03:24] <brenner> Arrick: yes.  i'm using a 40 gig one now
[03:24] <Arrick> brenner: ok thanks
[03:24] <brenner> ubotu: tell subtlehustle about mp3
[03:24] <subtlehustle> thx
[03:25] <nickrud> raindog, yes you can install them both, they have different executable names: gcc for 4.0.2 , and gcc-3.4 for 3.4.5
[03:25] <brenner> ubotu: tell subtlehustle about ubotu
[03:25] <brenner> :)
[03:25] <raindog> nickrud:  thanks.  I'll do that now.
[03:25] <DarthShrine> brenner, D'ya know?
[03:25] <Chicago60657> i guess amphi left the channel...can anyone else help?
[03:25] <laucol> is there an apt get for skype
[03:26] <subtlehustle> brenner, thanks!
[03:26] <nickrud> Chicago60657, try ping 207.172.3.8
 PLF repos have it in apt-get
[03:26] <brenner> DarthShrine: just a stab seeing as how the option has 'x11' in it ... maybe you need the xincludes
[03:26] <meng> or else, installing skype from skype.com won't really work
[03:27] <Chicago60657> nickrud: OK, but this involves me rebooting back into Ubuntu...what exactly should i be looking for in order to configure my firefox to connect?
[03:27] <Chicago60657> i'm just trying to avoid rebooting a million times ot solve my problem
[03:28] <laucol> thanks
[03:28] <lafferpt> in shellscripting what does the shift function do exactly?
[03:29] <nickrud> Chicago60657, what that ping is doing is checking that that host number is reachable ; that's your resolver, and if you can't see that ...
[03:29] <meng> anywhere i can get the missing xlibs and libc6 files for dapper?
[03:29] <Chicago60657> nickrud: i actually pasted 207.172.3.8 into the address bar of firefox under ubuntu, but i got a 'connection refused' message
[03:29] <NewbRyan> Hello
[03:30] <nickrud> Chicago60657, yeah, it's not a web server, but that's promising, it wasn't a timeout.
[03:30] <thoffmeyer> how do I blacklist modules in 5.10? I know how to do it in dapper but not hoary
[03:30] <nickrud> thoffmeyer, /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[03:30] <thoffmeyer> thanks
[03:30] <Chicago60657> nickrud: could i be that my cable company only recognizes windoze / mac systems?  should I be calling tech support?
[03:30] <NewbRyan> I am trying to start an ssh server and i dont know how, I have managed to download it, im just not sure how to run the programs i download
[03:31] <Chicago60657> nickrud: if i ping that number and don't get an error message, then what...what's my end game?
[03:31] <asymmetry> NewbRyan: I assume you're running Ubuntu?
[03:31] <Rug> What is the command to prob your monitor for settings?
[03:31] <nickrud> Chicago60657, in my experience tcp/ip is pretty much os agnostic, but my experience is limited. I normally run from networking issues, I should be slapping myself with several trout at the moment
[03:31] <NewbRyan> yes
[03:31] <asymmetry> NewbRyan: If you install the OpenSSH Server via the Synaptic Package Manager, it's automatically set up.
[03:32] <NewbRyan> and therfore running?
[03:32] <Installer36> nickrud > could it be just disabling IPv6 ....I had to do that after my install
[03:32] <asymmetry> NewbRyan: Indeed. Get a shell, and enter: ssh 127.0.0.1
[03:33] <vladuz976> is anybody here using vi mode in bash?
[03:33] <nickrud> Installer36, you've already shown you know more than I :)
[03:33] <nickrud> Rug, sudo ddcprobe
[03:33] <Installer36> Hardley!!!!!!
[03:33] <Rug> nickrud: thanks
[03:33] <subtlehustle> hey, this may be a really silly question, but is kubuntu a different dist all together? ubuntu installed gnome by default for me. i suppose i have to apt-get kubuntu packages to get kde?
[03:34] <NewbRyan> connection refused
[03:34] <Chicago60657> nickrud: sorry...if i ping that number and don't get an error message, then what...what's my end game?
[03:34] <asymmetry> Newb
[03:34] <asymmetry> NewbRyan: Sorry, getting used to a new client.
[03:34] <nickrud> subtlehustle, I'm not sure. I shouldn't have spoken because I don't know the networking game well enough to troubleshoot remotely.
[03:35] <NewbRyan> how do i pm you?
[03:35] <subtlehustle> you meant chicago i think
[03:35] <NewbRyan> I'm sorry, i am completely new to this i installed it not an hour ago
[03:35] <nickrud> subtlehustle, kubuntu is just a different selection of packages ; installing kubuntu-desktop will let you run bot kde and gnome
[03:35] <asymmetry> NewbRyan: Okay, in that shell, enter: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[03:36] <nickrud> Chicago60657, I'm not sure. I shouldn't have spoken because I don't know the networking game well enough to troubleshoot remotely.
[03:36] <subtlehustle> nickrud, thanks. i used kde on my suse desktop, and gnome is foreign and scary to me
[03:36] <subtlehustle> plus amarok = awesome
[03:36] <subtlehustle> i wish amarok made a windows port.
[03:36] <Chicago60657> nickrud: OK...maybe i should hit the forums
[03:36] <NewbRyan> it asked for my password, then nothing happend
[03:36] <Installer36> Chicago60657> aftre you boot back up in ubuntu first  in terminal  ping any site such as  www.google.com
[03:36] <asymmetry> NewbRyan: Now, try: ssh 127.0.0.1
[03:36] <DarthShrine> I stuck a DVD in my drive, and Totem popped up, saying: "Failed to open device /dev/scd0 for reading: Permission denied", how can I fix this?
[03:37] <NewbRyan> connection refused
[03:37] <Installer36> if you get response then check for IPv6 disabling..I had to do this because of timeout
[03:37] <Chicago60657> Installer36: i did that; here's the output: bpont@pooose:~$ host google.com;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
[03:37] <Frogzoo> DarthShrine: u member of group 'cdrom' ?
[03:37] <Installer36> chicago what did ifconfig show
[03:38] <DarthShrine> Frogzoo, I suppose not.

[03:42] <_jason> LordSkies: what happens when you try?
[03:42] <nickrud> join ghostbusters!
[03:42] <__mikem> lol, what happened was the laptop I was using died while I was on IRC and the irc session never terminated
[03:43] <LordSkies> It says "starting.....(whatever)" and then just stops and nothing happens
[03:43] <brenner> LordSkies: such as?
[03:43] <_jason> LordSkies: what does 'gksudo synaptic' in accessories > terminal do?
[03:44] <LordSkies> unable to lookup via gethostbyname
[03:45] <_jason> LordSkies: can you paste the first line in each of /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
[03:45] <DarthShrine> Frogzoo, Ok, I can access the drive now. Though totem doesn

[03:46] <LordSkies> I would love to, but how?
[03:47] <Mischevious> can anyone tell me why my ipod has 78 unallocated megabytes?
[03:47] <Mischevious> i just noticed it in gparted..
[03:47] <Frogzoo> DarthShrine: u installed libdvdcss ?
[03:47] <neoxan> ok, i got hundrets of rar archives with password, how to unpack them all? o_0
[03:47] <pauldaoust> Mischevious: because you just haven't found enough songs yet; that's why ;)
[03:47] <DarthShrine> Frogzoo, yeap
[03:47] <_jason> LordSkies: you can open them in gedit if you want, an easier way is to do 'cat /etc/hostname /etc/hosts' and just give me the first two lines that it spits out
[03:47] <neoxan> every archive in a diffrent folder
[03:47] <Mischevious> pauldaoust, it' not free space, it's unallocated as in no fs
[03:47] <pauldaoust> Mischevious: oh, as in, unpartitioned. ha. sorry
[03:47] <Frogzoo> DarthShrine: any error msgs?
[03:48] <pauldaoust> so, folks, I have a question. Does anyone know where ps2ai has got to in recent iterations of Ubuntu? It was there in Hoary, afaict, but it ain't there anymore.
[03:48] <LordSkies> gcmd@:~$ cat /etc/hosts
[03:48] <LordSkies> 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
[03:48] <LordSkies> # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
[03:48] <LordSkies> ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
[03:48] <LordSkies> fe00::0 ip6-localnet
[03:48] <LordSkies> ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
[03:48] <DarthShrine> I need a video/mpeg codec or something
[03:48] <LordSkies> ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
[03:48] <LordSkies> ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
[03:48] <LordSkies> ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
[03:48] <Frogzoo> LordSkies: pastebin!
[03:48] <_jason> LordSkies: I asked for only the first two lines
[03:49] <_jason> LordSkies: what does /etc/hostname contain?
[03:49] <brenner> pauldaoust: packages.ubuntu.com has a file search feature
[03:49] <_jason> ubotu: tell DarthShrine about multimedia
[03:49] <LordSkies> /etc/hostname gives me a blank line
[03:49] <Mischevious> pauldaoust, why do you think it is
[03:49] <vader> help with a broadcom wireless anyone?
[03:49] <Mischevious> _jason, any idea why my ipod has 78 unpartitioned megabytes?
[03:49] <pauldaoust> brenner: thanky
[03:49] <pauldaoust> Mischevious: not the foggiest. probably some weird Apple thingy.
[03:50] <pauldaoust> Mischevious: don't have an iPod myself.
[03:50] <Mischevious> pauldaoust, i never noticed it my self till i fired up gparted right now
[03:50] <Cyorxamp> are there 617 people in this channel?
[03:50] <Mabus06> where is your 'c' drive when you install wine?
[03:50] <tonyyarusso> Mabus06: Something like ~/.wine/dosdevices/c/
[03:51] <Rug> Cyorxamp: We are hiding, hush!
[03:51] <_jason> LordSkies: ok choose a hostname, for example ``ubuntu'' and change the contents of /etc/hostname to ``ubuntu'' without the quotes.  Then update the first line of /etc/hosts to be ``127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ubuntu'' again without the quotes.  To edit these files you may have to reboot in recovery mode and issue the command 'nano /etc/hostname', then edit the file, save with ctrl-o, and exit with ctrl-x.  Same for /etc/ho
[03:51] <Cyorxamp> Rug... seriously - are there?
[03:51] <pauldaoust> Mabus06: ~/.wine/drive_c
[03:51] <Mischevious> pauldaoust, it's okay i just merged the two partitions into fat32
[03:51] <_jason> LordSkies: that was a little longer than I anticipated, did you get all that?
[03:51] <Arrick> brenner: when it asks me where to install the grub, o I want it on the master boot partition?
[03:51] <Rug> yeah, you can set a +i Invisible flag when you login to IRC
[03:51] <pauldaoust> Mischevious: good stuff. does it still work? :P
[03:51] <LordSkies> ok, I think I got all that, I will try and return if I have trouble
[03:51] <Cyorxamp> I'm not on about that
[03:51] <Mischevious> pauldaoust, tell ya in a sec :-p
[03:51] <Cyorxamp> jeez simple question - complex answer
[03:51] <brenner> pauldaoust: are you sure that's the filename?  the search didn't show it in hoary :-/
[03:51] <pauldaoust> heh
[03:52] <brenner> Arrick: yes
[03:52] <Mischevious> pauldaoust, nope now it's complaining :-P probably shouldn't have done that
[03:52] <Rug> Cyorxamp: sorry.  It's in my nature to be a pain in the ass
[03:52] <vars> if i install windows on a seperate partiton is there a way to run it inside Ubuntu?
[03:52] <Arrick> brenner: ok thanks
[03:53] <ArIeZ> im trying to enter a root password but it wont let me
[03:53] <ArIeZ> any ideas
[03:53] <NickGarvey> !root
[03:53] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[03:53] <pauldaoust> brenner: thought it was. anyway, there's a ps2ai.ps file in the gs-afpl, gs-gpl, and gs-esp packages, but for some reason my documentation has disappeared, so I don't know how to use those files with ps2ps, if I can at all. Anyway, I'll just search the Web.
[03:53] <brenner> vars: less trouble to just reboot if you ask me
[03:54] <biberao> hey
[03:54] <biberao> how do i make xgl work?
[03:54] <_jason> !xgl
[03:54] <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/
[03:54] <sbartleylinux> I just bought my first AMD-64 system.  It has an ATI X200 video card on-board.  I installed Ubuntu 5.10 - 64-bit.  I can get ok video with vesa driver but can not seem to get the ati or the fglrx driver to work at all. anyone able to help?
[03:54] <Frogzoo> can anybody recommend a firefox downloader for pulling whole web directories?
[03:54] <Cyorxamp> the mIRC perform list is totally poo compared to the power of X-Chat

[03:54] <_jason> Frogzoo: flashgot extension, with d4x, gwget, wget...
[03:54] <biberao> _jason sure that howto will work for ati gnome?
[03:55] <_jason> biberao: no idea, try asking the #ubuntu-xgl crowd
[03:55] <vader> cafuego, are you about?
[03:56] <pauldaoust> aw poo. I don't know how the hell to convert PS to AI... apparently ps2ai isn't included as a command anymore on Ubuntu. If it ever was.

[03:57] <pauldaoust> Mischevious: oh dear. so what happened now? I was worried that it might be some fancy spot for the OS.
[03:57] <nvicf> how can I tell which version of a given lib I have?
[03:57] <_jason> Frogzoo: hmm don't think it will work then, but you can try
[03:57] <Mischevious> pauldaoust, i just need to run the apple updater utility, no worries
[03:57] <vader> cafuego, are you about tonight?
[03:57] <pauldaoust> Mischevious: hope that's all you need to do :)

[03:59] <Frogzoo> _jason: there's an ff extension called 'download them all' but I've had only mixed success
[03:59] <_jason> Frogzoo: flashgot just grabs every link on a page and sends it to the download manager of your choice

[04:26] <vook> vader, so it does work on other networks?
[04:26] <vader> vook, no
[04:26] <vader> it will not get DHCP anywhere
[04:26] <Arrick_> Turf_ph: I ont haev a gui installed, so I have no idea what to do at this point
[04:26] <yamathan> Wow.  That's useful.  : D
[04:26] <RedRose> how do i, through bash, change the default loaded desktop that startx exec's?
[04:26] <yamathan> "Ubuntu Servers" just brought me here.
[04:27] <Arrick_> yamathan: thats how I got here?
[04:27] <turf_ph> do you have lynx installed? @Arrick
[04:27] <vader> vook, in other words......lol I have no more answers lol
[04:27] <vook> vader, it could be that the dhcp server is demanding that your client provide a hostname.  One handy tool I recommend is gtkwifi
[04:27] <Arrick_> turf_ph: I dont have anything but the default "server" from ubuntu
[04:27] <vook> vader, it's not in the ubuntu repositories, but can be found on sourceforge.
[04:28] <vader> k
[04:28] <turf_ph> Arrick, : apt-get install samba
[04:28] <nickrud> RedRose, edit ~/.xinitrc
[04:29] <yamathan> Arrick, really?
[04:29] <Arrick_> turf_ph: it says command not found
[04:29] <LordSkies> Just wanted to say thanks to _jason.  Everything is functioning perfectly now!
[04:29] <Installer36>   Arrick> try this site http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samba_software
[04:29] <_jason> LordSkies: great
[04:29] <yamathan> Why has Vista been delayed for another year?
[04:30] <turf_ph> Arrick: ic its a bare installation
[04:30] <LordSkies> _jason: Thanks so much!
[04:30] <fiendskull9> im installing another distro on a new partition, will i need another swap partition, or will the other distro use that swap?
[04:30] <turf_ph> Arrick: you need to install apt
[04:30] <Arrick_> turf_ph: when I type it the right way, it says E: could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (permission denied) E: unable to lock the list directory
[04:30] <yamathan> I ask this because, well, Vista doesn't seem much different from, say, some of the up-and-coming GUI's.
[04:30] <Arrick_> turf_ph: how?
[04:30] <Falstius> fiendskull9: it can use the same swap and should detect it automatically during install.
[04:30] <vader> vook, I now have that, what do I do to use it?
[04:31] <Installer36> tArrick use sudo apt-get install samba
[04:31] <turf_ph> Arrick: use sudo
[04:31] <fiendskull9> Vistas "revolutionary" features are the same as osx
[04:31] <fiendskull9> theres a you tube video that demonstrates
[04:31] <fiendskull9> Also
[04:31] <turf_ph> Arrick: sudo apt-get install samba
[04:31] <fiendskull9> im installing slackware (as i mentioned), is there something i can install thatll utilize the apt-get commands we all know and love?
[04:31] <vook> vader, right click on a gnome panel (assuming you are using gnome) and click "add to panel", look for "Wireless Connection Manager".
[04:31] <yamathan> "Revolutionary" only because the MicroMonopoly is releasing it.
[04:32] <Installer36> Arrick > first read at the site I posted for you
[04:32] <fiendskull9> yamathan, lol, true.
[04:32] <turf_ph> Arrick: also consider Installer36 advise
[04:32] <yamathan> When is GLX coming to Ubuntu?
[04:32] <fiendskull9> yamathan, i prefer to refer to it as Microslush
[04:33] <yamathan> I should rephrase that -- how can I INSTALL GLX and others?
[04:33] <Installer36> Arrick > you will also need ..I believe smb
[04:33] <fiendskull9> !glx
[04:33] <ubotu> fiendskull9: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:33] <fiendskull9> !GLX
[04:33] <ubotu> fiendskull9: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:33] <fiendskull9> hmm
[04:33] <vader> vook, that only sees one (the weekest) wireless in this area, and not my own
[04:33] <vook> vader, what kind of wireless router are you using?
[04:34] <fiendskull9> Im installing slackware, is there anyway to install a package manager, or utilize apt-get commands on it? I still hate compiling.
[04:34] <vader> Motorola
[04:34] <turf_ph> where do  i edit my gateway?
[04:34] <vader> but it doesn;t matter, no router seems to work with it lol
[04:34] <turf_ph> under interface?
[04:34] <vook> vader, hmm.  I have my wireless router set up to be hidden, so it doesn't see mine either, but that's intended.
[04:34] <Falstius> route add default gw 192.168.0.1 eth0 :)
[04:34] <vader> mine is not for now
[04:35] <vook> vader, are you using ndiswrapper?
[04:35] <Cyorxamp> !root
[04:35] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[04:35] <turf_ph> Falstius: would that make permanent?
[04:35] <vader> no...ndiswrapper would not light it up
[04:35] <vook> vader, so this device of yours, it does have a broadcom chipset correct?
[04:36] <vader> vook, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx?highlight=%28broadcom%29 this is what I am using
[04:36] <vader> vook, yes
[04:36] <Arrick_> installer36: how do I install anything on here? I am a newbie, so please bear with my sometimes stupid and repetitive questions.
[04:36] <ArIeZ> anyone know how i can move a file to a different dir
[04:36] <Falstius> turf_ph: no, its not really the suggested method.  You can do it through  system->adminstration->networking then click on properties for the network card.
[04:36] <vader> it does all but gain DHCP
[04:37] <vook> vader, what do you mean "all", can it be assigned a static IP and then ping the router?
[04:37] <neo911> is it safe to put soy sauce in ubuntu?
[04:37] <vader> I can assign but no it will not ping
[04:37] <turf_ph> Falstius: i did that but i could not find ppp0, so im looking on manually editing it
[04:38] <vook> vader, i'm doubting it's a dhcp issue then
[04:38] <Falstius> uhm .. what are you using to dialup?  It should be set there somewhere.
[04:38] <vook> hmmmmmm
[04:38] <fiendskull9> neo911, no, but it makes it delicious :)
[04:38] <fiendskull9> neo911, i dunno really
[04:38] <Jerub> hi! I've changed /etc/hostname to be a host that doesn't resolve on the network, and sudo will refuse to work if I can't resolve the hostname
[04:38] <vook> vader, I'm using a broadcom chipset, but it's been a while since I got this thing working, lemme dig a bit.
[04:38] <turf_ph> Falstius: yes its a dialup
[04:39] <Jerub> so, I can't see to be able to get root access in order to fix the problem, does anyone know how I can fix this?
[04:39] <neo911> fiendskull9, i was just kidding there's no such package he he
[04:39] <vader> k ty vook
[04:39] <shrewduser> hey guys, where is the: Directory containing linux kernel source code ?
[04:39] <blueOrange> anyone able to assist me with how to enable svideo output ?
[04:39] <fiendskull9> neo911, i know, but i though maybe it was some program.
[04:39] <Falstius> turf_ph: which program to dialup though? gnome-ppp, wvdial?  Actually, I haven't used either in years so I can't really help.  But it should be set there.
[04:39] <fiendskull9> Does anyone use slackware?
[04:39] <turf_ph> Falstius: i could only view in the drop down are eth0 and eth1
[04:39] <Installer36> Arrick .>  First go here...http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu....This will give you a good start ...
[04:39] <fiendskull9> or is familiar with it
[04:39] <NickGarvey> !slackware
[04:39] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[04:39] <vader> vook, I will be back....must do something
[04:39] <nickrud> Jerub, you'll need to boot up in recovery mode, you can edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts that way without sudo
[04:40] <Jerub> nickrud: okay, thanks.
[04:40] <shrewduser> a program is asking me for the "Directory containing linux kernel source code " but i can't find the dir,....
[04:40] <nickrud> Jerub, what do you have in /etc/hostname ,  and on the first line only of /etc/hosts , anyway?
[04:40] <Falstius> shrewduser: /usr/src/linux-2.6....
[04:40] <NickGarvey> shrewduser: you don't have it by default
[04:40] <Falstius> if it is installed.
[04:41] <shrewduser> oh i don't?
[04:41] <Jerub> nickrud: I changed /etc/hostname without chanign /etc/hsots
[04:41] <nickrud> Jerub, ok, then you know :)
[04:41] <NickGarvey> root@ubuntu:/etc/samba# apt-get install linux-source-2.6.12
[04:41] <shrewduser> NickGarvey:well thats probably why i couldn't find it....
[04:41] <Jerub> nickrud: it would work fine if I had put the FQDN in /etc/hostname, but I made a mistake.
[04:42] <shrewduser> NickGarvey: ta...
[04:42] <nickrud> Jerub, you only need the host name portion in hostname , domain is not needed
[04:42] <Jerub> nickrud: if you have /etc/hosts configured correctly :)
[04:42] <turf_ph> Falstius: i just try to figure this out, thanks for your help
[04:42] <Falstius> turf_ph: I'd try to help more ... but I don't have a phone line or modem installed.
[04:43] <turf_ph> Falstius
[04:43] <turf_ph> its ok
[04:43] <nickrud> turf_ph, you could try using pppconfig , and then pon/poff to start/stop ppp . Not as convenient as a gui thing, but reliable
[04:43] <phrowzen> anyone know how i might configure the minimum number of similar windows required for gnome to make a 'group' on the taskbar?
[04:43] <sgleo87> when I open an Office XP word file in Open Office 2.0 in Ubuntu the page breaks are slightly differnt (but after 10 pages it makes a half a page difference). Why is that and how can I fix that?
[04:43] <turf_ph> nickrud: k,thanks
[04:44] <NickGarvey> ./join #openoffice
[04:44] <Arrick_> Installer36: I have read the page you sent me, and it doesnt help e out much if I cant install the software, any Ideas?
[04:44] <NickGarvey> that would most likely be your best best sgleo87
[04:44] <sgleo87> ok thx
[04:44] <Arrick_> turf_ph: you have any suggestions for me, I have read the page that installer36 gave me
[04:45] <Arrick_> turf_ph: how do I install the programs?
[04:45] <sbartleylinux> I just bought my first AMD-64 system.  It has an ATI X200 video card on-board.  I installed Ubuntu 5.10 - 64-bit.  I can get ok video with vesa driver but can not seem to get the ati or the fglrx driver to work at all. anyone able to help?
[04:45] <brenner> Arrick: do you have net access on the box?
[04:45] <Mabus06> Totem could not play 'fd://0'.
[04:45] <Arrick_> brenner: I have no idea
[04:45] <Mabus06> How do I get streaming video to work with firefox?
[04:46] <Arrick_> brenner: how do I check?
[04:46] <turf_ph> Arrick: ping www.yahoo.com
[04:46] <sgleo87> hmm only 3 people in #openoffice and they don't know....
[04:46] <Installer36> Arrick > Start at this page..http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu...This will show you how to install programs and setting up Ubuntu for you
[04:46] <turf_ph> Arrick: if there is a reply you have net access
[04:47] <nickrud> !replacetotem
[04:47] <ubotu> from memory, replacetotem is 'sudo rm /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libtotem*', install mplayer (see !mplayer), install mozilla-mplayer
[04:47] <nickrud> Mabus06, that ubotu factiod above was for you
[04:48] <sgleo87> when I open an Office XP word file in Open Office 2.0 in Ubuntu the page breaks are slightly differnt (but after 10 pages it makes a half a page difference). Why is that and how can I fix that?
[04:48] <Mischevious> anyone here have an ipod nano ?
[04:48] <brenner> sbartleylinux: what did you try for the ati and fglrx drivers?
[04:49] <sbartleylinux> brenner, I followed the ubuntu wiki for BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[04:49] <NickGarvey> !ipod
[04:49] <ubotu> info for syncing your iPod is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto
[04:49] <brenner> sbartleylinux: ok 1st of all.  i don't know if it being a 64bit system matters.  have you check that?
[04:50] <criminy> How can I get the ipodvidenc work with Realmedia files?
[04:50] <sbartleylinux> brenner, nope.  only reset to vesa and got it running that way so I could get online and try to figure it out.
[04:51] <dj-fu> Mischevious, yes, I do.
[04:52] <brenner> sbartleylinux: ok, let's assume it doesn't matter.  which one did you try?  the repos driver?  the ati.com driver? both?
[04:52] <Arrick_> brenner: I got information from the yahoo server
[04:52] <sbartleylinux> brenner, so far, just the repos driver.
[04:52] <Arrick_> brenner: it gave me the IP addy and all that
[04:53] <Jerub> :q
[04:53] <brenner> Arrick: that's good.  sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:53] <Arrick_> how do I get out of the ping?
[04:53] <brenner> sbartleylinux: the repos driver didn't work for me.  the ati.com one did
[04:53] <brenner> Arrick: ctrl+c
[04:54] <sbartleylinux> brenner, k. will try that next. thx.
[04:54] <Arrick_> brenner: thanks
[04:54] <Rawplayer> re
[04:54] <Arrick_> brenner: it wants a password?
[04:55] <brenner> Arrick: type your password
[04:55] <Arrick_> brenner: comand not found
[04:55] <brenner> Arrick: what's the full error?
[04:55] <nomin> how do I have the date clock appear?  I thought I had a date and a clock but now they are gone.  How do I make them reappear?
[04:55] <Arrick_> brenner: got it, had a typo
[04:56] <brenner> Arrick: ok, edit the file so it looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[04:56] <brenner> nomin: right-click on panel>add to panel
[04:57] <Arrick_> brenner: which file, this is a whole page
[04:58] <nomin> thanks brenner
[04:58] <nomin> wow, there are a lot of user in this room.
[04:58] <nomin> *users
[04:58] <brenner> Arrick: you need to make that file look like the contents of the pastebin link
[04:59] <Arrick_> brenner: remember I am a newbie, what does the paste bin look like?
[04:59] <Strayhikari> Hello, noob here with a couple questions if anyone has a second?
[04:59] <dj-fu> just ask
[04:59] <nickrud> brenner, cutting & pasting from the bottom block works really well
[04:59] <sgleo87> when I open an Office XP word file in Open Office 2.0 in Ubuntu the page breaks are slightly differnt (but after 10 pages it makes a half a page difference). Why is that and how can I fix that?
[05:00] <GNU_Style> can I compile and mane xconfig the kernel on another hdd not in usr/src --- cause my / is low on space
[05:00] <brenner> nickrud: he doesn't have a gui atm
[05:00] <nickrud> oh
[05:00] <brenner> nickrud: i'm trying to get him to enable universe actually...
[05:00] <brenner> or whatever it is so he can get xubuntu-desktop
[05:00] <Strayhikari> I installed ubuntu 5.10 on a laptop, and just recently hooked a monitor up to it, ubuntu mirrors the image from the laptop screen onto the plugged in monitor, is there any way to tell it to default to the plugged in monitor when it is plugged in?
[05:00] <nickrud> brenner, lines 19 & 20, uncomment them if he already has standard sources (add multiverse to the end while he's at it)
[05:01] <brenner> nickrud: thanks
[05:01] <brenner> Arrick: what nickrud said :)
[05:01] <ArIeZ> anyone in here know how i can convert a .sh dos file to a nix file
[05:02] <Arrick_> brenner: how do I uncomment them?
[05:02] <brenner> ArIeZ: isn't that just a shell script?
[05:02] <brenner> Arrick: anything with a # in front is commented
[05:03] <Arrick_> brenner: do I want to uncomment just 19 & 20?
[05:03] <Falstius> ArIeZ: dos2unix file.sh
[05:04] <Arrick_> brenner line 20 is blank
[05:04] <brenner> Arrick: yes.  and add the word multiverse to the end
[05:04] <Aisi> Arrick_, should be lines 18 and 19
[05:04] <Falstius> ArIeZ: that is assuming by DOS file you mean a file with the file line endings.
[05:04] <brenner> Arrick: you might want to comment out the cdrom line while you're at it too
[05:04] <sbartleylinux> brenner, I am trying to follow the ati driver install instructions.  Small problem.  My resolution is currently set to 1024x768 which is as large as it will go.  The tool for the ati installer wont give me access to the buttons.
[05:04] <pulgoki> .
[05:05] <brenner> sbartleylinux: hold alt, and click anywhere on the window to move it
[05:05] <sbartleylinux> brenner, the buttons are off the bottom of the screen, I cant resize the window and the window is too big to see the bottom.
[05:05] <sbartleylinux> k. will try that.
[05:05] <GNU_Style> how do I use chmod to change file group and ownership?
[05:05] <Strayhikari> Does anyone know how to change monitor output to a different monitor in linux?
[05:05] <whyameye_> is there a way to "mount" a network drive as if it is local?
[05:05] <Consty> What's the best way to add dma for my harddrive?  just add the hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdc to a startup file or are there any places it should actually go?
[05:05] <Arrick_> brenner: I uncommented 18 and 19, but I dont have a multiverse
[05:05] <GNU_Style> I want to chmod linux-source.tar.bz2 to let myself and src group own it?
[05:06] <GNU_Style> how to do that?
[05:06] <Arrick_> brenner: I also comented out the cd-rom
[05:06] <sbartleylinux> brenner, yep that worked.
[05:06] <brenner> Consty: /etc/hdparm.conf
[05:06] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: chmod user: linux-source.tar.bz2
[05:06] <NickGarvey> would make the user own it, and what ever group he is in own it
[05:06] <Aisi> Arrick_, add the word multiverse to the end of those lines, in the same way that universe is at the end of those lines
[05:06] <GNU_Style> and for the group?
[05:06] <Consty> brenner, thanks
[05:06] <Falstius> NickGarvey: you mean chown, right?
[05:06] <brenner> Aisi: thanks for chipping in
[05:07] <Arrick_> Aisi: do I replace the unverse?
[05:07] <Aisi> Arrick_, no
[05:07] <Aisi> brenner, np
[05:07] <NeverDream> I need some help with cdrecord
[05:07] <NeverDream> how do I find out my device name?
[05:07] <NeverDream> if I run $cdrecord dev=help
[05:07] <ArIeZ> yeah the file ending is .sh
[05:07] <Strayhikari> My other question is when you set up a share for windows machines on a LAN, and you try to connect to it, and it asks for an ID/pass and I use one I created on the linux box, it doesn't seem to work, is that because windows puts the machine name in front of the user? machine/user when it identifies?
[05:07] <NeverDream> it shows 1,2,0
[05:07] <GNU_Style> nickgarvey it says to few arguments
[05:07] <Arrick_> Aisi: so i just add the multiverse to the end?
[05:08] <NickGarvey> yeah sorry, he said chmod so I said chmod
[05:08] <NeverDream> but it refuses to blank the disk
[05:08] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: its chown, not mod
[05:08] <MrCollins> Strayhikari you gotta create a user on the win32 box
[05:08] <Strayhikari> ok, trying it MrCollins
[05:08] <Aisi> Arrick_, yep, and to save the file in nano press ctrl-o,   to exit: ctrl-x
[05:08] <ArIeZ> anyone in here use frostwire
[05:08] <brenner> Arrick: yes
[05:09] <IamEthos> top three media players for Ubuntu: go!
[05:09] <GNU_Style> chown: changing ownership of `linux-source-2.6.12.tar.bz2': Operation not permitted
[05:09] <Frogzoo> ArIeZ: yep
[05:09] <ArIeZ> hi frogzoo
[05:09] <IamEthos> :-(
[05:09] <NeverDream> ahh, nevermind, I got it :)
[05:09] <Hobbsee> GNU_Style: stick sudo in front of it?
[05:09] <ArIeZ> did you have to convert the runfrost.sh file
[05:09] <GNU_Style> i used chmod <user>: <filename.tar.bz2>
[05:09] <IamEthos> I expected everybody to quickly shout their favorites
[05:09] <IamEthos> I thought it was going to start a conversation
[05:09] <GNU_Style> i used ----- sudo chmod <user>: <filename.tar.bz2>
[05:09] <brenner> !tell IamEthos about players
[05:09] <GNU_Style> still the same error
[05:10] <Arrick_> Aisi: I only add multiverse to the end of the lines that I uncommented right?
[05:10] <Strayhikari> MrCollins: Do you need to have the samba client installed in windows? or just make a regular windows user?
[05:10] <MrCollins> regular windows user
[05:10] <GNU_Style> guys?
[05:10] <Frogzoo> ArIeZ: yes indeed - dos2unix
[05:10] <Cyorxamp> !paste
[05:10] <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.
[05:11] <Nico`Sleep> My Delivery hasnt came...
[05:11] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: don't use chmod, use chown
[05:11] <Nico`Sleep> Its been over 6 weeks
[05:11] <Aisi> Arrick_, yes... assuming what you have done is what brenner and I think/hope you have :)
[05:11] <sbartleylinux> brenner, sorry for all the questions.  Next issue is that the install wants the local kernel headers.  kernel running is the 2.6.12-10-amd64-generic.  ubuntu package list does not include headers for this kernel yet it appears.
[05:11] <ArIeZ> frogzoo: could you tell me the best way i can do that
[05:11] <Arrick_> Aisi: I took the # off the lines 18 and 19, then added multiverse to the end of those two lines
[05:12] <Arrick_> Aisi: then saved it like you said and exited
[05:12] <Frogzoo> ArIeZ: sudo dos2unix /usr/lib/frostwire/runFrost.sh
[05:12] <Arrick_> brenner: Aisi: whats next?
[05:12] <Aisi> Arrick_, good. now type sudo apt-get update
[05:12] <MrCollins> Strayhikari did it work
[05:12] <brenner> sbartleylinux: *nod* which was what i sort of feared at the start....maybe 64bit isn't supported?
[05:12] <GNU_Style> i used chown, still the same eroor
[05:13] <Strayhikari> MrCollins: negative, although I didn't see your response to my last post
[05:13] <Arrick_> Aisi: ok its working right now
[05:13] <MrCollins> what was your last post
[05:13] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: paste bin the command and output
[05:13] <sbartleylinux> brenner, *LK*(&^^(
[05:13] <IamEthos> brenner (or anyone); do you happen to know which ones supoort the Zen Micro?
[05:13] <ArIeZ> Frogzoo: its asking for a password but wont let me type anything in
[05:13] <IamEthos> I know Banshee does
[05:13] <sbartleylinux> brenner, :)
[05:13] <ArIeZ> you know why??
[05:13] <Aisi> Arrick_, good. make sure to abuse us if it doesn't ;) (very easy to get things wrong over irc)
[05:14] <Strayhikari> MrCollins: Whether I needed to install the samba client in windows, or if just creating a windows user would do
[05:14] <Frogzoo> ArIeZ: you need to enter your user password - this is standard for sudo
[05:14] <MrCollins> just regular windows user
[05:14] <ArIeZ> yeah i know but it wont let me type nothing
[05:14] <MrCollins> form it in the computer management
[05:14] <Strayhikari> ok I did that
[05:14] <NeverDream> on third thought, I still need help :S
[05:14] <brenner> sbartleylinux: hang on.  look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[05:14] <Arrick_> Aisi: ok, whats next?
[05:14] <Strayhikari> when i type it in though, and if fails it is putting the machine name/user is that ok?
[05:14] <GNU_Style> http://pastebin.com/621170
[05:14] <MrCollins> and is it still not letting you in
[05:14] <Aisi> Arrick_, i'll leave the rest to brenner, because the rest is his show. i just jumped in to help with the editing of the souces.list
[05:14] <birdfish> If I install ubuntu without in "server mode" is there a command that I can use through apt-get to install the new gnome 2.14 desktop?
[05:15] <Arrick_> Aisi: thanks I appreciate it
[05:15] <Strayhikari> not letting me on
[05:15] <NickGarvey> birdfish: why yes
[05:15] <brenner> sbartleylinux: there's something about 64bit there
[05:15] <NickGarvey> birdfish: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:15] <NeverDream> cdrecord gives me a "Cannot open SCSI driver"
[05:15] <Arrick_> brenner: you got the show now
[05:15] <birdfish> NickGarvey: And that's gnome 2.14?
[05:15] <MrCollins> do you have the same user you are logged in as setup on the linux box
[05:15] <Strayhikari> no, different user
[05:15] <Arrick_> brenner: whats next, I just updated by using sudo apt-get update
[05:15] <brenner> Arrick: ok, let's install a desktop environment: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[05:15] <MrCollins> ok
[05:15] <Strayhikari> does it need to be the same?
[05:15] <GNU_Style> nickgarvey:wat do you think?
[05:16] <MrCollins> on the win32 box login as the same user name that you have on the linux box
[05:16] <MrCollins> should let you in] 
[05:16] <Frogzoo> ArIeZ: so no prompt "Password:"  ?
[05:16] <NeverDream> can anyone help me with cdrecord?
[05:16] <Arrick_> brenner: working
[05:16] <MrCollins> but do you have your user setup on the linux box setup as a samba user?
[05:16] <Strayhikari> ok trying it
[05:16] <MrCollins> permission to view samba shares?
[05:16] <NickGarvey> Operation not permitted is interesting..
[05:17] <NickGarvey> worked fine for me
[05:17] <Arrick_> brenner: I appreciate all the help you've given me tonight, adn today for that matter
[05:17] <NickGarvey> chown nick: linux-source-2.6.12.tar.bz2
[05:17] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: try logging in as root
[05:17] <Strayhikari> still not letting me
[05:18] <Strayhikari> using the exact same user name as I am currently logged in as
[05:18] <GNU_Style> still the same
[05:18] <MrCollins> so the win32 user is an admin?
[05:18] <ArIeZ> Frogzoo its prompts me password
[05:18] <sbartleylinux> brenner, working on that document now. thx.
[05:18] <ArIeZ> but it wont let me type
[05:18] <Strayhikari> yes
[05:18] <MrCollins> what win32 ver are you running
[05:18] <Strayhikari> xp
[05:19] <NickGarvey> hmm
[05:19] <Arrick> Arrick has not quit
[05:19] <_jason> ArIeZ: that's normal, you just don't see what you type
[05:19] <MrCollins> pro?
[05:19] <Strayhikari> yep
[05:19] <Strayhikari> sp2
[05:19] <Arrick> Arrick has not ("leaving")
[05:19] <MrCollins> ok..
[05:19] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: do a ls -l and put the output on pastebin
[05:19] <Arrick> had 2 tabs open
[05:19] <Strayhikari> perhaps I'm not setting up the share correctly?
[05:19] <MrCollins> on the linux box does the user have access to samba shares?
[05:19] <Strayhikari> I believe so, I'm very new to linux though, how woudl I check?
[05:20] <dj-fu> do this
[05:20] <dj-fu> smbpasswd -a <user>
[05:20] <dj-fu> then set the password for the share
[05:20] <ArIeZ> sudo dos2unix /usr/lib/frostwire/runFrost.sh i typed that
[05:20] <Strayhikari> k trying it
[05:20] <dj-fu> then you should be able to access it fine from other machines
[05:20] <ArIeZ> prompt me for password
[05:20] <ArIeZ> typed it in
[05:20] <dj-fu> (with the <user> and password, though)
[05:20] <MrCollins> dj-fu where does he check in ubuntu for user permissions?
[05:20] <ArIeZ> now it says dos2unix command not found
[05:20] <Arrick> brenner: will I have to manually load the usb drivers for my printer?
[05:20] <_jason> ArIeZ: sudo aptitude install sysutils, then try again
[05:21] <dj-fu> MrCollins, check what?
[05:21] <MrCollins> where in ubuntu gui would he check for user permissions
[05:21] <brenner> Arrick: not sure to be honest.
[05:22] <Arrick> brenner: ok
[05:22] <Strayhikari> ok retrying it
[05:22] <Arrick> brenner: will pass that bridge when i get to it then
[05:22] <MrCollins> where is the user administration gui
[05:22] <MrCollins> lol
[05:22] <dj-fu> MrCollins, what user permissions?
[05:22] <Strayhikari> nice it worked dj-fu thanks a bunch
[05:22] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: http://pastebin.com/621174
[05:22] <dj-fu> Strayhikari, not a problem :)
[05:22] <Arrick> brenner: at 31% right now on my dinosaur
[05:23] <dj-fu> Strayhikari, I don't think samba likes doing non-authenticated file sharing.. I have always had trouble so I just do that method ;P
[05:23] <Strayhikari> works for me :)
[05:23] <nickrud> MrCollins, for permissions, right click the file, and select properties; and user admin is under system->administration
[05:23] <Strayhikari> Thanks to you too MrCollins
[05:23] <NickGarvey> I win
[05:23] <NickGarvey> I know why
[05:23] <Consty> does breezy use devfs or udev?
[05:23] <alpha255> dj-fu, i find that my machines benfit from having a hosts file on private networks
[05:23] <NickGarvey> you are in /media/sda7
[05:23] <alpha255> dj-fu, like behind a nat
[05:24] <Strayhikari> Neither of you woudl have any idea how to make a laptop output video to a monitor plugged into it rather than mirroring it on the lcd and the monitor do you?
[05:24] <MrCollins> ahhh thx NickGarvey
[05:24] <dj-fu> Strayhikari, what kind of graphics card?
[05:24] <NickGarvey> I bet you don't have write access to that mount
[05:24] <MrCollins> yeah
[05:24] <alpha255> dj-fu, i think samba likes knowing fqdn
[05:24] <dj-fu> Strayhikari, with nvidia & ati it's easy
[05:24] <NickGarvey> anytime MrCollins:-P
[05:24] <brenner> _jason: are you familiar w/ server installs?
[05:24] <MrCollins> it should be a combination of button pressing
[05:24] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: type mount and pastebin the output
[05:24] <dj-fu> alpha255, samba pwns, it's more secure out of the box than windows file sharing :p
[05:24] <Arrick> strayhikari: you have to disable the onboard monitor in the display settings
[05:24] <_jason> brenner: not really, what's the question though?
[05:24] <MrCollins> on the laptop
[05:24] <Strayhikari> dj-fu this laptop has a really really old ati card
[05:24] <MrCollins> there is a FN button
[05:25] <alpha255> dj-fu, ya, i like samba
[05:25] <MrCollins> press the FN button then the i think its F3
[05:25] <brenner> _jason: was i right in recommending Arrick install xubuntu-desktop to get a lightweight desktop going?
[05:25] <MrCollins> ?
[05:25] <MrCollins> maybe its F4
[05:25] <_jason> brenner: yeah
[05:25] <alpha255> dj-fu, it helps bring windows users into the linux world
[05:25] <dj-fu> Strayhikari, what driver? fglrx?
[05:25] <brenner> ok then
[05:25] <dj-fu> alpha255, yep :)
[05:25] <ArIeZ> working; thanks frogzoo and jason
[05:25] <alpha255> dj-fu, plus john trig and jerremy are great guys
[05:25] <dj-fu> alpha255, sorry, not sure who they are ;x
[05:26] <jadaz87> does anyone know if there is a memory manager for ubuntu because i think i need one badly
[05:26] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: http://pastebin.com/621178
[05:26] <alpha255> main folks behind samba
[05:26] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: what do you think?
[05:26] <MrCollins> F2?
[05:26] <MrCollins> Strayhikari did it work
[05:26] <alpha255> trig was the guy who started samba from wha t i can tell
[05:26] <NickGarvey> nope I am wrong
[05:26] <NickGarvey> I thought I had it too
[05:26] <alpha255> also wrote up swat when folks complained about no gui for samba
[05:27] <NickGarvey> /dev/sda7 on /media/sda7 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,fmask=0111,dmask=0000)
[05:27] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: that looks good to me
[05:27] <dj-fu> alpha255, ah, i see.
[05:27] <MrCollins> ahh cool
[05:27] <MrCollins> is that trig guy hang in this channel
[05:27] <sgleo87> when I open an Office XP word file in Open Office 2.0 in Ubuntu the page breaks are slightly differnt (but after 10 pages it makes a half a page difference). Why is that and how can I fix that?
[05:27] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: why are you putting the linux source on a drive like that anyway heh
[05:27] <dj-fu> I doubt it, He probably doesn't wanna be bugged
[05:27] <alpha255> john terpstra is a great guy... writes good books and an overall promoter of linux gnu software
[05:28] <sbartleylinux> well, off to reboot and try this ati configuration.  bbiab
[05:28] <Consty> does breezy use udev or devfs?
[05:28] <GNU_Style> my '/' is low on spce i want to extract my the tarball aand complie from /dev/sda7
[05:28] <nickrud> Consty, udev
[05:29] <regeya> sgleo87: OOo isn't Office XP, there may be different typefaces in use, and if they're the same XP and Freetype may not be treating the fonts the same...um...*shrug*
[05:29] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: hmm alright, let me try to think why it would work for me and not you, that seems to be a permission error
[05:29] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: cd to the upper dir and tell me the permissions on that
[05:29] <GNU_Style> im unable to 'tar .tar.bz2' cause I dont have permission..
[05:29] <phrizer> i just did an upgrade from 5.04 to 5.10, and at the end i got:
[05:29] <phrizer> Errors were encountered while processing:
[05:29] <phrizer>  ubuntu-base
[05:29] <phrizer>  mozilla-firefox
[05:29] <brenner> dj-fu, alpha255 :would you guys mind helping out Arrick?  i think he's trying to get a print server up and samba was recommended by a couple of guys.  i've just told him to get xubuntu-desktop to get a working desktop running.  does he even need a gui for what he needs?
[05:30] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: http://pastebin.com/621186
[05:30] <dj-fu> hrm
[05:30] <sgleo87> regeya: the fonts are the same but I guess it still makes a difference...
[05:30] <regeya> sgleo87: heck, I get Office documents from amateur typesetters all the time, and there are even significant between Office XP and Office on Mac...you may be forced to do a bit of editing by hand.
[05:30] <phrizer> what do i need to do?
[05:30] <NickGarvey> try to "chown -R user: ./kernel"
[05:30] <alpha255> brenner, nope, he needs to install the bare minimum and samba's swat
[05:31] <sgleo87> regeya: is it possible to install office xp on ubuntu
[05:31] <alpha255> brenner, then open up swat to a specific ip address
[05:31] <dj-fu> brenner, samba will be good for compatibility, I find the default 'gnome' printer configuration works a treat, tested it the other day and it worked fine. I am on Dapper, though.
[05:31] <brenner> Arrick: you listening?
[05:31] <Arrick> yeah
[05:31] <dj-fu> O
[05:31] <Strayhikari> lol that did not work as intended
[05:31] <sgleo87> regeya: maybe with an wine?
[05:31] <dj-fu> I'm not sure how to manually configure a print server, though.
[05:32] <brenner> dj-fu: thing is he's on a 64mb system.  which is why i recommended the server installl + xfce
[05:32] <Arrick> once I gte the software I need I can perform that part, just have to get all the parts and peices together
[05:32] <alpha255> dj-fu, point a web browser to the print server box with apache running i think it is on port 901 or somet hing like that
[05:32] <alpha255> ej 10.0.0.10:901
[05:32] <alpha255> eg
[05:32] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: http://pastebin.com/621188
[05:32] <alpha255> might have to configure swat to respond to requests other than localhost
[05:33] <Strayhikari> Is there anyway to force a higher resolution? It is limiting itself to the same resolution as teh laptop screen :(
[05:33] <Arrick> yep
[05:33] <alpha255> Arrick, look at samb.org
[05:33] <Arrick> ok
[05:33] <alpha255> Arrick, you can read John Terpstra's book there
[05:33] <NickGarvey> ok GNU_Style try this "touch ./test"
[05:33] <alpha255> Arrick, excellent book
[05:33] <alpha255> Arrick, buy and/or tell your friends about it
[05:33] <blueOrange> can anyone tell me how to edit the xorg.conf file to enable svideo output on a laptop ?
[05:34] <alpha255> Arrick, or read it for free and help others
[05:34] <alpha255> :)
[05:34] <NickGarvey> alpha255: what book? is it something samba involving?
[05:34] <Arrick> that site redirects you to http://redir-error.gandi.net/
[05:34] <brenner> Arrick: i need to go. good luck!
[05:34] <Arrick> you too, great hunting next time, heh
[05:34] <alpha255> NickGarvey, offical samba 3 book is there last time I looked
[05:34] <alpha255> in html
[05:34] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: nothing happens
[05:35] <Arrick> alpha255: samb.org redirects you to http://redir-error.gandi.net/
[05:35] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: now type ls | grep test
[05:35] <NickGarvey> "ls | grep test"
[05:35] <damian_> hi im trying to run oldschool larry for dos whats best to use? can wine also run dos programs?
[05:35] <sgleo87> is it possible to install office 2003 in ubuntu?
[05:35] <Aisi> Arrick, I suspect he meant samba.org
[05:35] <damian_> sgleo87 yes
[05:35] <NickGarvey> !oo.org
[05:35] <Arrick> ok thanks
[05:35] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey

[05:36] <Arrick> next thing is to download samba once the gui is loaded
[05:36] <NickGarvey> alpha255: thanks, I am playing with samba now, hoping to get some linux computer in my school during my senior year (2 years to go ;))
[05:36] <alpha255> Arrick, that's the swat secton
[05:36] <damian_> but yeah why bother...openoffice\
[05:36] <Arrick> ok thanke
[05:36] <alpha255> NickGarvey, np have fun with it
[05:36] <alpha255> :)
[05:37] <sgleo87> well, the problem is that the page breaks are different in openoffice and I also have to do stuff for college spcifically in MS Access or Excel
[05:37] <eobanb> can i use a wireless card as an access point if i'm using it with ndiswrapper?
[05:37] <Arrick> NickGarvey: university of Pheonix has some linux courses you can take while in high school
[05:37] <live> hello
[05:37] <damian_> oh k well yeah search google for crossover office
[05:38] <alpha255> is there a local linux user group there?
[05:38] <damian_> openoffice CAN load and save msoffice files btw
[05:38] <damian_> hi im trying to run oldschool larry for dos whats best to use? can wine also run dos programs?
[05:38] <Dr_Willis> XXXubuntu - with Porn Icons? :p
[05:38] <linuxpoet> damian_: freedos
[05:38] <damian_> thanks
[05:38] <linuxpoet> Dr_Willis:  no... Xubuntu as in XfceUbuntu
[05:39] <damian_> and dos emulators are all standard as in they all will run atleast 95% programs?
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> linuxpoet,  My idea is more interesting. :P
[05:39] <linuxpoet> damian_: freedos is not an emulator
[05:39] <damian_> oh
[05:39] <eobanb> uhh yes it is
[05:39] <Arrick> alpha255: were you talking to me with that question?
[05:39] <damian_> i need something of the ttype to run inside of linux
[05:39] <nick_here> i have just installed ubuntu 5.10
[05:40] <eobanb> oh, wait, sorry, i thought you meant dosbox
[05:40] <nick_here> and never asked for a root password during installation
[05:40] <alpha255> Arrick, the user group yes
[05:40] <Toma-> !qemu
[05:40] <ubotu> somebody said qemu was an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo or http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=200357&postcount=1
[05:40] <linuxpoet> no, not dosbox
[05:40] <linuxpoet> freedos
[05:40] <linuxpoet> www.freedos.org
[05:40] <nick_here> now asks me for a root password for mounting my disks
[05:40] <damian_> will that install inside of linux?
[05:40] <Arrick> yeah, they have a pretty big online group, and also a pretty big lab setup
[05:41] <linuxpoet> damian_: I believe so
[05:41] <damian_> cool
[05:41] <Arrick> they teach linux and unix, and gaurantee you can run wnything you want whn your done
[05:41] <alpha255> Arrick, that's pretty
[05:41] <alpha255> good
[05:41] <linuxpoet> ubotu: qemu is ungodly slow... just buy vmware if that is what you are going to do
[05:41] <ubotu> ...but qemu is already something else...
[05:41] <alpha255> diversity is good
[05:42] <GNU_Style> ls grep | test -- says test
[05:42] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: thats good and bad
[05:42] <NickGarvey> means it worked
[05:42] <NickGarvey> but that also means I don't know why its not working
[05:43] <damian_> nope its an operating system have to install it via cd  and boot ti
[05:43] <NickGarvey> could be this stuff noexec,nosuid,nodev,fmask=0111,dmask=0000
[05:43] <Arrick> alpha255: I kinda wish I had gone there instead of going to Western Michigan University
[05:43] <damian_> never mind dosbox used that before but forgot...ill get that
[05:43] <MrBIOS-> hi there, I just added some stuff to my /etc/hdparm.conf for /dev/hda and it doesn't seem to have actually used it
[05:43] <MrBIOS-> any thoughts?
[05:43] <alpha255> Arrick, is that close to umich?
[05:43] <Arrick> alpha255: I have a lot of friends that went there though
[05:44] <linuxpoet> MrBIOS-: did you reboot?
[05:44] <Arrick> UoP is mostly online, but the have campuses all over the US
[05:44] <MrBIOS-> linuxpoet, of course
[05:44] <linuxpoet> MrBIOS-: you never know :)
[05:44] <MrBIOS-> linuxpoet, heh
[05:44] <NickGarvey> the old windows standby, when in doubt, REBOOT!
[05:44] <American> I Need help configuring getting check.sh to work so I can get ATI drivers.
[05:44] <Arrick> Umich is not too far from WMU though
[05:44] <MrBIOS-> linuxpoet, but the file wasn't used
[05:45] <MrBIOS-> linuxpoet, what actually use /etc/hdparm.conf on bootup? which script?
[05:45] <alpha255> NickGarvey, server somedamond reload
[05:45] <linuxpoet> MrBIOS-: hmmm
[05:45] <linuxpoet> MrBIOS-: I don't see any init script calling it
[05:45] <MrBIOS-> linuxpoet, there is /etc/init.d/hdparm
[05:45] <razorclaw> can breezy be upgraded to drapper ?
[05:45] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: I just did a apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:45] <linuxpoet>  Please read /usr/share/doc/hdparm/README.Debian
[05:45] <MrBIOS-> linuxpoet, oops no there isnt
[05:45] <linuxpoet> razorclaw: yes
[05:46] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: results?
[05:46] <alpha255> razorclaw, i read about that in the forum... in theory it should
[05:46] <linuxpoet> I am running dapper right now
[05:46] <linuxpoet> upgraded from hoary to breezy to dapper
[05:46] <linuxpoet> worked great
[05:46] <Toma-> anyone ever converted a dvd to asf before? mencoder is the go?
[05:46] <joseph> How do I get the opendocument format plugin for AbiWord?
[05:47] <alpha255> linuxpoet, was that a stock install?
[05:47] <Falstius> go blue.
[05:47] <razorclaw> linuxboy, just change the entries inside of sources.list ?
[05:47] <alpha255> linuxpoet, laptop?
[05:47] <American> anyone?
[05:47] <Arrick> alpha255: is my scren supposed to go blank when the xubuntu is done downloading?
[05:47] <linuxpoet> no not a laptpo
[05:47] <linuxpoet> two different workstations
[05:47] <Hobbsee> !tell American about anyone
[05:48] <alpha255> Arrick, might be screensaver
[05:48] <linuxpoet> one was an Nividia based (needed the 2.6.15 kernel which is why I tried it)
[05:48] <linuxpoet> one is ati
[05:48] <alpha255> Arrick, not sure
[05:48] <Arrick> ook
[05:48] <MrBIOS-> what runlevel does ubuntu INITIALLY come up in?
[05:48] <Arrick> it came back on when I hit enter
[05:48] <alpha255> linuxpoet, nice
[05:48] <crimsun> MrBIOS-: 2
[05:48] <NickGarvey> MrBIOS-: 5 I believe
[05:48] <NickGarvey> or not
[05:48] <American> sorry
[05:48] <NickGarvey> hes probably right
[05:48] <alpha255> MrBIOS-, less /etc/inittab will show the default
[05:48] <NickGarvey> I'd bet money on it
[05:48] <Falstius> MrBIOS-: 2, you can check in the file /etc/inittab.
[05:49] <MrBIOS-> some fucking thing is polling my HD every few seconds
[05:49] <MrBIOS-> on this notebok
[05:49] <NickGarvey> !language
[05:49] <ubotu> 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.
[05:49] <MrBIOS-> very annoying
[05:49] <alpha255> MrBIOS-, how much memory?
[05:49] <Falstius> is 2 a Debian thing or just Ubuntu?  I'm from a 3/5 world of redhat.
[05:50] <alpha255> my guess is from debian
[05:50] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: I found something out, if I use chown and chgrp on <filename.tar.bx2> on my /home it works
[05:50] <MrBIOS-> alpha 1GB
[05:50] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: it better!
[05:50] <Arrick> alpha255: I just got a fontconfig error: cannot load defult config file
[05:50] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: that would be a huge problem
[05:50] <alpha255> MrBIOS-, nice!
[05:50] <Toma-> gosh qemu is great fun :)
[05:51] <GNU_Style> NickGarvey: once I move it to /media/sda7 it automatically change ownership and group to root,
[05:51] <Gau> Graah
[05:51] <GNU_Style> I wonder why?
[05:51] <Gau> I just wanna play an mp3 while booted from my Ubuntu livecd :(
[05:51] <NickGarvey> GNU_Style: no idea, think its over my head
[05:51] <NickGarvey> !mp3
[05:51] <ubotu> mp3 is probably a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:51] <MrBIOS-> is there a packaged amiga emulator for ubuntu?
[05:51] <Falstius> GNU_Style: is sda7 fat/msdos filesystem?
[05:51] <Toma-> MrBIOS-: id say so
[05:51] <joseph> How do I get the opendocument format plugin for AbiWord?
[05:52] <GNU_Style> it a vfat
[05:52] <jesusfish> anyone here know what options do what for compiz via gconf-editor?
[05:52] <GNU_Style> Falstius: its a FAT32
[05:52] <alpha255> Arrick, hummm
[05:52] <benkillin> what is the nameof the media player that comes with ubuntu-desktop
[05:52] <Toma-> !glx
[05:52] <ubotu> Toma-: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:52] <Toma-> !xgl
[05:52] <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/
[05:52] <Toma-> jesusfish: see that howto
[05:52] <alpha255> Arrick, is there a backup of xorg.conf file?
[05:52] <Falstius> GNU_Style: fat32 doesn't support permissions/ownership so everything just gets displayed as who mounted it.
[05:52] <alpha255> Arrick, you were installing ati drivers right?
[05:52] <American> that was me
[05:52] <Arrick> alpha255: nope
[05:52] <American> with ATI
[05:53] <Arrick> i was installing the xubuntu
[05:53] <alpha255> Arrick, oh downloading
[05:53] <Falstius> benkillin: totoem and rhythmbox.
[05:53] <Falstius> er totem
[05:53] <GNU_Style> so how can I mount my /dev/sda7 as gfx username?
[05:53] <benkillin> do either of those support WMP video/audio format streaming content (as a client)?
[05:53] <Toma-> anyone know how to get metacity windows to stick together?
[05:53] <jesusfish> Toma-: that doesn't really go into gconf-editor settings
[05:54] <alpha255> Arrick, is the hardware new?
[05:54] <Toma-> jesusfish: well try in #ubuntu+1 or @xgl
[05:54] <Toma-> orr #xgl
[05:54] <Arrick> heck no
[05:54] <Falstius> GNU_Style: ummm ... good question.  You can do it from the command line, but I assume you want it to do that automatically at boot.
[05:54] <alpha255> lol
[05:54] <alpha255> Arrick, ya, i use older stuff too
[05:54] <GNU_Style> Falstius: It says on root can mount
[05:54] <Arrick> alpha255: this thin is a dell optiplex pentium mmx with 64 mgs of ram
[05:55] <alpha255> Arrick, oooh 64 might be a bit on the thin side
[05:55] <Arrick> i only want it to run as a file/print server when Im done
[05:55] <Arrick> I know its thin, but its what I have for now
[05:55] <alpha255> Arrick, ahh, boot to network only
[05:55] <Toma-> fluxbox and 64mb are a match made in heaven
[05:55] <alpha255> etc/inittab
[05:55] <alpha255> ssh to the box
[05:56] <phrizer> i just upgraded from 5.04 to 5.10, and now i'm missing lots of icons, like, my trash icon, and place's and system icons.
[05:56] <Arrick> alpha255: I did, and then brenner had me download the xubuntu gui, cause im so new
[05:56] <alpha255> Arrick, oh, you are a new at this...
[05:56] <Arrick> very new
[05:56] <alpha255> Arrick, ahh makes sense then
[05:56] <Arrick> as in today
[05:56] <alpha255> Arrick, gui s are nice
[05:56] <alpha255> Arrick, oh boy
[05:56] <Falstius> GNU_Style: to mount it as yourself you'd need to etc /etc/fstab and add the "user" option.
[05:56] <Arrick> but they are so doggone slow
[05:57] <benkillin> Does either totem or rhymbox support windows media format streaming content (as a client)?
[05:57] <alpha255> Arrick, it takes a little while to learn linux
[05:57] <Arrick> yeah, I know
[05:57] <alpha255> and gnu
[05:57] <Falstius> GNU_Style: whats wrong with having it owned by root?
[05:57] <Arrick> alpha255: I've been trying to learn all I could today
[05:58] <GNU_Style> Falstius: im trying to extract a tar.bz2 file in /dev/sda7 but ut says something about permissions
[05:58] <Arrick> alpha255: have redone this thing 5 times today using peoples advice
[05:58] <alpha255> Arrick, good
[05:58] <GNU_Style> /dev/sda7 on /media/sda7 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,fmask=0111,dmask=0000)
[05:58] <GNU_Style> /dev/sda7 on /media/sda7 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,fmask=0111,dmask=0000)
[05:58] <GNU_Style> /dev/sda7 on /media/sda7 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,fmask=0111,dmask=0000)
[05:58] <Dr_Willis> It pays to learn the Fundamentals.. the rest follows.
[05:58] <alpha255> Arrick, lean anything?
[05:58] <NickGarvey> !paste
[05:58] <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.
[05:58] <Arrick> yeah
[05:58] <GNU_Style> Falstius: /dev/sda7 on /media/sda7 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,fmask=0111,dmask=0000)
[05:58] <linuxpoet> xubuntu rocks
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> xfce. Ugh. :P
[05:59] <Falstius> GNU_Style: that looks okay (but I read it the first 3 times ;))
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> lol
[05:59] <Arrick> alpha255: try to get info from more than one source
[05:59] <linuxpoet> xfce is great
[05:59] <linuxpoet> stays completely out of your way
[05:59] <linuxpoet> is uber fast
[05:59] <Arrick> alpha255: hehe
[05:59] <NickGarvey> linuxpoet: yup my personal favorite too
[05:59] <linuxpoet> and they finally got rid of the really ugly theme :)
[05:59] <_whitay> whats the default root password
[05:59] <NickGarvey> !root
[05:59] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> sorry.. my take on xfce is not the same. :P
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> but to each their own...
[05:59] <alpha255> Arrick, fluxbox is pretty light weight too
[06:00] <MrBIOS-> does anyone here have an /etc/init.d/hdparm ?
[06:00] <NickGarvey> Dr_Willis: well I am used to flux and right click desktop for the menu, which is why I like xfce more than gnome and kde
[06:00] <American> i like enlightenment
[06:00] <Dr_Willis> !hdparm
[06:00] <alpha255> is fvwm still around?
[06:00] <alpha255> American, e is nice
[06:00] <NickGarvey> American: oh yeah, I booted elive, nice stuff
[06:00] <Arrick> alpha255: it is finishing the install of the xubuntu right at the moment
[06:00] <Dr_Willis> NickGarvey,  thats a rather trivial feature lol. :P
[06:00] <Dr_Willis> I sort of perfer WIndowMaker in many ways.. Old-Skool
[06:00] <dj-fu> _whitay, `sudo passwd root`, enter your password, enter new root password x2
[06:00] <alpha255> Arrick, give it time... a pentium w/ that small a memory will take time
[06:01] <American> Can I please get some ATI love?
[06:01] <NickGarvey> !ati
[06:01] <ubotu> ati is probably 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
[06:01] <American> thanks
[06:01] <Arrick> alpha255: I really wanted to just run the server, cause it would run quicker for the server
[06:01] <dj-fu> American, I wish ;'(
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> dj-fu,  shhh thats a secret.. if he knew how to do that.. then he would know  the secret handshake also! :p
[06:01] <linuxpoet> what is it that you need american
[06:01] <MrBIOS-> does anyone here have an /etc/init.d/hdparm ?
[06:01] <Arrick> alpha255: yeah its loading fonts right now
[06:01] <alpha255> Arrick, well you can alway uninstall the gui stuff later
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> MrBIOS-,  yes - its a script. :P
[06:02] <American> i keep trying to run sh check.sh to check my XFree86 and I cant
[06:02] <dj-fu> Dr_Willis, lol, I think the secret handshake is a little more secret than the sudo passwd root dance
[06:02] <alpha255> Arrick, i get extra machine when people throw them out
[06:02] <dcgarri> another question... sorry... I've just installed ubuntu (hoary) and upgraded to breezy... i am getting horrible dvd playback (1 frame per 6 seconds or so)... any thoughts?
[06:02] <alpha255> Arrick, it's amazing what people throw away
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> dj-fu,  the people that shouled be allowed to set the root password.. should allready know how to do it. :P its like a Initation test.
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> lol
[06:02] <Arrick> yep
[06:03] <Dr_Willis> dcgarri,  be sure dma is enabled. (type !dma or !hdparm) and read the bots messages
[06:03] <linuxpoet> Dr_Willis: that is a very good point
[06:03] <Arrick> alpha255: want to send me one, this one was a throwout too, from a elementry school that just now upgraded
[06:03] <dcgarri> !dma
[06:03] <Arrick> I would love to get a 500mhz or so for my server
[06:04] <alpha255> Arrick, i'm using most of mine
[06:04] <Arrick> I have about 200 different hd's, and only one computer that takes ide drives
[06:04] <alpha255> Arrick, surpluscomputers.com has some cheap machines
[06:04] <dager> anyone here pretty decent with wireless networking? got a tiny problem on my hands, not smart enough to solve it yet
[06:04] <alpha255> Arrick, weirdstuf too
[06:04] <Arrick> Have 2 laptops though
[06:04] <Arrick> yeah
[06:04] <Gau> Please send me one FireWire external HD
[06:04] <Arrick> hehe
[06:04] <Gau> Free of charge
[06:04] <alpha255> wow
[06:04] <Arrick> I dont have any firewire at this point
[06:04] <Dr_Willis> Gau,  heh - i gave away a external firewire drive case the other day
[06:05] <Gau> :(
[06:05] <GNU_Style> Falstius: sory for repiting,
[06:06] <GNU_Style> Falstius: what does cp /boot/config-2.6.10.686 ./.config mean?
[06:06] <Arrick> out of 95 computers the school threw out, only 10 of them worked
[06:06] <Gau> My HD is failing; I'm running off a LiveCD right now
[06:06] <GNU_Style> Falstius: im confussed with the ./.config line?
[06:06] <Arrick> what kind do you need?
[06:06] <Arrick> send me an email with the info to MooreAD4473@verizon.net
[06:07] <Arrick> we'll see what we can come up with
[06:08] <Shukhrat> Hello
[06:08] <NickGarvey> hello
[06:08] <alpha255> brb
[06:08] <Falstius> GNU_Style: ./.config? you're compiling a new kernel?
[06:08] <dager> Anyone know how to get a usb-dongle into monitor mode? "iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor" returns an error =(
[06:09] <MrBIOS-> does anyone here have the file /etc/init.d/hdparm on their systems?
[06:09] <MrBIOS-> I need a copy
[06:09] <Shukhrat> how to dial up with Ubuntu ?
[06:09] <Falstius> MrBIOS-: check /etc/defaults/smartmontools or something like that.
[06:09] <Absenth> can anyone point me to a how-to  to get the forward and backwards buttons on my mouse to work on Ubuntu in Firefox & Opera?
[06:09] <graig> hello
[06:09] <GNU_Style> Falstius: yah iam, and im reading the instructions from ubuntu wiki but I dont understand the ./.config part
[06:09] <MrBIOS-> Falstius, eh?
[06:09] <Shukhrat> should i have special softwere ?
[06:10] <Falstius> MrBIOS-: there should be a line in there for setting hdparm options.
[06:10] <Falstius> MrBIOS-: just poke around in the folder, you should find it.
[06:10] <Shukhrat> how to dial up with Ubuntu ?
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> MrBIOS-,  that specific file is a init script.. it reads a config file.  You DONT alter that file.
[06:10] <Shukhrat> should i have special softwere ?
[06:10] <MrBIOS-> Dr_Willis, I know  that, grr
[06:11] <MrBIOS-> Dr_Willis, mine just seems to have disappeared
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> MrBIOS-,  Lol...
[06:11] <Falstius> GNU_Style: why don't you copy it to /usr/src ... you'll need it there later.
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> find what package it came in and apt-get install (reinstall it)
[06:11] <GNU_Style> my '/' is low on space
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> I forget how to do that from the shell...
[06:11] <Falstius> the .config file are options based to the make script to figure out what to include in the kernel.
[06:11] <Falstius> GNU_Style: it will take up about 300 mb after it is built.
[06:12] <jquixote> I need a way to install ubuntu on an external hard drive without a cd or floppy
[06:12] <GNU_Style> i must compile from nother hdd which is /dev/sda7 and copy it to /usr/src when its dome compiling
[06:12] <Falstius> GNU_Style: on a vfat partition?  that might cause problems.
[06:12] <Falstius> GNU_Style: why do you need a custom kernel?
[06:13] <GNU_Style> Falstius: by the way is creating a symlink to linux-sources-x-x-686 necesarry? cant I just cd in to the extract dir and work from there?
[06:13] <GNU_Style> Falstius: I want to remove un needed hardware support and enablt HT on my pentium 4
[06:14] <MrBIOS-> Dr_Willis, could I trouble you to send me a copy?
[06:14] <Falstius> GNU_Style: unless you know what you're doing you're likely to shoot yourself in the foot.  To enable HT, install the kernel-smp package.
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> MrBIOS-,  im usgin dapper5, 64bit disrto. so its not a good idea.
[06:15] <MrBIOS-> Dr_Willis, I am using dapper on x86, the file is simply a text init file, man
[06:15] <GNU_Style> Falstius: check http://pastebin.com/621230
[06:15] <Falstius> GNU_Style: I think it is called linux-image-smp or maybe linux-image-i686-smp
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> MrBIOS-,  plus i cant dcc send. Fire up Synaptic and search for 'hdparm' and reinstall it.
[06:16] <GNU_Style> Falstius: im on 2.6.12-10-686-smp now
[06:16] <Hobbsee> um...i dont think that was quite intended Seveas...
[06:16] <Falstius> GNU_Style: you can't do make because it wants to run a script but you mounted /sda7 as "noexec"
[06:16] <Falstius> remove that and fmask=111 from your fstab and it should let you.
[06:17] <Falstius> GNU_Style: like I said, doing this on fat32 will cause trouble.
[06:17] <GNU_Style> Falstius: oh ok, how can I overide the 'noexec' option?
[06:17] <fiendskull9> how do i install kde and have it choosable in the sessions manager?
[06:17] <fiendskull9> is it sudo apt-get install kde?
[06:17] <eobanb> fiendskull9, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[06:17] <fiendskull9> ok
[06:17] <GNU_Style> Falstius: bummer im really low on my ext3
[06:18] <eobanb> fiendskull9, it will be added to gdm's session chooser.
[06:18] <fiendskull9> will that install only the enviroment, and not all the software packages?
[06:18] <regeya> dcc
[06:18] <Falstius> GNU_Style: well it is possible, just annoying :)
[06:18] <MrBIOS-> is there a way to reinstall hdparm without first removing the package?
[06:18] <Davey> sudo apt-get reinstall hdparm
[06:18] <fiendskull9> eobanb, wil it only install the kde enviroment, and not all the kde programs?
[06:18] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: All packages.
[06:18] <Falstius> you can remount from the commandline, "sudo mount -o remount,rw,exec,umask=000 /dev/sda7 /media/sda7"
[06:18] <Davey> or it might be install --reinstall hdparm
[06:19] <MrBIOS-> Davey, reinstall is an invalid operation
[06:19] <eobanb> fiendskull9, well part of kde IS the kde programmes (e.g. konqueror)
[06:19] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Try kdebase
[06:19] <Davey> MrBIOS-: there is an option in the right click on a package for synaptic, try install --reinstall
[06:19] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, is there a way to just get kde enviro, and not all the packages.
[06:19] <MrBIOS-> Davey, thanks, that worked
[06:19] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, ill try that
[06:19] <Davey> MrBIOS-: :)
[06:19] <neoxan> dcc
[06:19] <Davey> MrBIOS-: nice to know I learned *something* :)
[06:19] <GNU_Style> Falstius: /dev/sda7       /media/sda7     vfat    user,auto,fmask=0111,dmask=0000        0       0
[06:19] <GNU_Style> thats in my fstab..
[06:19] <MrBIOS-> Davey, weird, I still don't have an /etc/init.d/hdparm
[06:20] <MrBIOS-> Davey, guess it's not part of the package...strange, though
[06:20] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, kdebase worked.
[06:20] <carbo> hey there
[06:20] <Davey> MrBIOS-: want mine? if I have one :)
[06:20] <MrBIOS-> Davey, it would be greatly appreciated
[06:20] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Yep.  Good stuff.  There's a gnome-core similar to that the other way.
[06:20] <Arrick> alpha255: now that the gui is installed, how do i start it?
[06:20] <carbo> how do I delete a file from a terminal? I did 'rm filename' but it still shows up when I type 'dir', although its now called 'filename~'
[06:20] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, well, i just want to try kde, i might use it on slackware
[06:21] <neoxan> dcc send
[06:21] <regeya> well.
[06:21] <Falstius> GNU_Style: if you do fmask=111 you won't be able to execute any of the scripts.
[06:21] <Falstius> you need fmask=000
[06:21] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Ah.  Perfect for that.
[06:21] <fiendskull9> can anyone do a quick gigabyte to kilobyte to gigabyte conversion for me?
[06:21] <Arrick> Aisi: you still here?
[06:21] <Davey> MrBIOS-: http://davey.is-a-geek.com/hdparm.conf - thats a vanilla default, was installed when I upgraded to Dapper, FYI
[06:21] <regeya> I think we know why the bot is kickbanning people then.
[06:21] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Sure.
[06:21] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, 20 gigabytes to KB
[06:21] <bennyp> hey, forgive my ignorance please. How do I make my freshly-installed breezy machine have the same network discovery method as the install/live cds?
[06:21] <MrBIOS-> Davey, not hdparm.conf, /etc/init.d/hdparm
[06:21] <Davey> oh, *duh*
[06:22] <eobanb> regeya, why?
[06:22] <MrBIOS-> Davey,  :)
[06:22] <sethrd> I broke X, and I don't know how. How do I apt-get it again?
[06:22] <Davey> no, I don't have one either, I don't think it's a daemon
[06:22] <carbo> how do I delete a file from a terminal? I did 'rm filename' but it still shows up when I type 'dir', although its now called 'filename~'
[06:22] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: 20971520
[06:22] <fiendskull9> thanks man
[06:22] <fiendskull9> i needed it for the slack install
[06:22] <fiendskull9> lol
[06:22] <fiendskull9> since it displays it in KB
[06:22] <Arrick> How do i run xubuntu on my ubuntu linux server?
[06:22] <Davey> MrBIOS-: just woke up ;)
[06:22] <bennyp> filename~ is just the buffer
[06:22] <eobanb> sethrd, just do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and see if that works
[06:22] <fiendskull9> which pisses me off :P
[06:22] <fiendskull9> brb, botting into kde for ubuntu
[06:22] <MrBIOS-> Davey, its not, but there's a debian script that runs hdparm for you at startup
[06:22] <tonyyarusso> sethrd: You don't need to get it, just reconfigure.  'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[06:22] <MrBIOS-> Davey, otherwise, there's nothing to USE the settings in /etc/hdparm
[06:23] <Davey> MrBIOS-: oh. hrm.
[06:23] <MrBIOS-> Davey, er, /etc/hdparm.conf rather
[06:23] <Arrick> help
[06:23] <MrBIOS-> Davey, this looks to be a bug with the hdparm package
[06:23] <dabaR> bennyp: it does it by default. YOu use DHCP on your network?
[06:23] <sethrd> How many KBs is 64MBs? *tries to do the math in his head*
[06:23] <carbo> bennyp: err, so what happens to the file? there's no way to remove it?
[06:23] <dabaR> 65356 or so.
[06:23] <sethrd> 1024 * 64...
[06:23] <Arrick> 64x1024
[06:23] <bennyp> dabaR: yes... currently OSX internet sharing from wifi > ethernet > ubuntu
[06:23] <Davey> MrBIOS-: I don't think so, I never needed one (apparently) to get hdparm to work, I think I ran a command that did something to make it run at startup
[06:23] <sethrd> .....I hate math.
[06:23] <sethrd> 65356 sounds right.
[06:23] <bennyp> carbo: just delete it if you don't want it
[06:23] <eobanb> sethrd, google it
[06:23] <GNU_Style> Falstius: /dev/sda7 on /media/sda7 type vfat (rw,umask=000)
[06:23] <MrBIOS-> Davey, any idea what? it's not loading by default here
[06:24] <Arrick> thats the right numbet
[06:24] <Arrick> !help
[06:24] <carbo> bennyp: i don't know how to delete it, that was my question
[06:24] <Davey> MrBIOS-: I got it off the forums
[06:24] <Davey> MrBIOS-: or perhaps the ubuntu guide
[06:24] <Falstius> GNU_Style: that should do it.
[06:24] <bennyp> carbo: I already answered your question
[06:24] <GNU_Style> Falstius: still the same error from make xconfig :(
[06:24] <_tcc> Anyone install UT ever?
[06:24] <bennyp> carbo: you already deleted the file
[06:24] <dabaR> bennyp: did you check your /etc/network/interfaces?
[06:24] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, i already miss gnome :(
[06:24] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, lol
[06:24] <dabaR> bennyp: if you would like, post that file to #flood
[06:24] <carbo> bennyp: okay, i'm just not getting this... the file is still there but I've deleted it.
[06:24] <bennyp> dabaR: iface eth0 inet dhcp
[06:24] <Falstius> GNU_Style: try sudo su and then doing it.
[06:24] <GNU_Style> Falstius: even if im root or sudo
[06:25] <bennyp> carbo: the file isn't there
[06:25] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: You can always run both if you wish.
[06:25] <bennyp> carbo: you deleted it
[06:25] <dabaR> bennyp: auto eth0?
[06:25] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, really?
[06:25] <Falstius> GNU_Style: sounds like it still won't allow exec.  I don't know why.
[06:25] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, how is that possible?
[06:25] <Arrick> !anyone: I need to know how to start the xubuntu gui after it is installed on my ubuntu server?
[06:25] <GNU_Style> Falstius: :(
[06:25] <Hobbsee> regeya: yes, people who use the exploit either get a ban by the bot, or a kline, if one of the freenode people is about
[06:25] <dabaR> sudo aptitude install xubuntu-server
[06:25] <carbo> bennyp: okay... man, if it isn't there i wish it would just disappear for real
[06:25] <frank23> Arrick: startx doesn't work?
[06:25] <bennyp> carbo: it already has
[06:25] <sethrd> It decided it doesn't like me...
[06:25] <bennyp> carbo: x does not equal x~
[06:25] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: The "New Login" stuff, in Gnome it's Applications > System Tools, New Login; not sure in KDE, but it's there.
[06:26] <Arrick> franl23: don't know yet, trying to get help, im new at it
[06:26] <Falstius> time for me to get some sleep though.  Good luck.  HT is overrated anyway.
[06:26] <dabaR> carbo: rm filename~
[06:26] <bennyp> similarly, file and file~ are two different things
[06:26] <sethrd> "xserver-xorg/config/device/driver not set"
[06:26] <dabaR> carbo: rm file<tab>
[06:26] <fiendskull9> tonyyarusso, oh well, back to gnome in a bit
[06:26] <GNU_Style> Falstius: thanks any way
[06:26] <Arrick> frank23: that did it, thanks
[06:26] <tonyyarusso> fiendskull9: Of course.
[06:26] <bennyp> when you edit a file, the editor will generally produce a buffer file and append ~ to the name
[06:26] <ph1qt10n> how can i renew my ip information similar to the ipconfig command in windows?
[06:26] <_tcc> Anyone ever install Unreal Tournament?
[06:26] <fiendskull9> _tcc, me
[06:26] <frank23> Arrick: heh. maybe install xdm to get a login screen
[06:26] <carbo> dabaR: sheesh, thanks... :x
[06:26] <fiendskull9> _tcc, do you need help?
[06:26] <_tcc> fiendskull9, how and where did you get it?
[06:26] <_tcc> yes.
[06:27] <_tcc> please.
[06:27] <fiendskull9> _tcc, legally, from eb-games
[06:27] <Arrick> frank23: I alredy haev that
[06:27] <carbo> bennyp: alright, thanks... I haven't got all this linking and buffering stuff in my head yet
[06:27] <Arrick> its open now
[06:27] <dabaR> bennyp: ^
[06:27] <bennyp> carbo: no problemo
[06:27] <ph1qt10n> how can i renew my ip information similar to the ipconfig command in windows?
[06:27] <frank23> Arrick: maybe server doesn't start X by default. it would make sense...
[06:28] <MrBIOS-> Davey, al the scripts I find just say "edit hdparm.conf" which I've already done
[06:28] <Arrick> frank23: thats right
[06:28] <dabaR> ph1qt10n: you want to do a /release /renew?
[06:28] <MrBIOS-> the thing is that there's NO INIT SCRIPT WHICH USES IT
[06:28] <MrBIOS-> lame
[06:28] <dabaR> bennyp: is there auto eth0 in that file?
[06:28] <fiendskull9> _tcc, do you have aim or something of the sort?
[06:28] <bennyp> dabaR: no sir,
[06:28] <bennyp> dabaR: auto lo
[06:28] <frank23> MrBIOS-: /etc/rcS.d/S07hdparm
[06:28] <fiendskull9> _tcc, im getting ready to install slackware, and im going to be back on around 12:30, 1 am
[06:29] <fiendskull9> _tcc, im atleebass on aim, tttyl
[06:29] <dabaR> bennyp, ph1qt10n : "sudo ifdown eth0&&sudo ifup eth0"
[06:29] <dabaR> bennyp: add auto eth0.
[06:29] <dabaR> ph1qt10n: man ifconfig
[06:29] <MrBIOS-> frank23, dude
[06:29] <MrBIOS-> frank23, those scripts DONT EXIST
[06:30] <dabaR> !enter
[06:30] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[06:30] <bennyp> dabaR: two birds, one line ;)
[06:30] <dabaR> !shout
[06:30] <ubotu> it has been said that shout is WE CAN READ LOWER CASE!
[06:30] <MrBIOS-> and you have to symlink them to something per the debian docs
[06:30] <C-O-L-T> say me why is that if I write a cd with gnomebakes I can not read it. If I write one with k3b it is ok
[06:30] <MrBIOS-> frank23, but the thing which you symlink TO does not exist
[06:30] <MrBIOS-> I love how people find one little snippit of info and present it
[06:30] <whyameye_> is there a way to check for a known bug on ooimpress with Breezy? I'm having a weird problem which doesn't seem to happen on my dapper machine with ooimpress...
[06:30] <frank23> MrBIOS-: it does exist for me
[06:30] <Arrick> what is the best version of samba?
[06:30] <Arrick> frank23: do you now anything about print servers?
[06:31] <frank23> Arrick: not much
[06:31] <MrBIOS-> frank23, what does it point to?
[06:31] <Arrick> frank23: how do I get samba
[06:31] <dabaR> Arrick: do you know how to install things?
[06:31] <frank23> MrBIOS-: /etc/init.d/hdparm of course
[06:31] <sethrd> So, what doedit to do a dist-upgrade?
[06:31] <sethrd> Er, what do I edit rather..
[06:31] <Dr_Fate> how to install?
[06:31] <MrBIOS-> frank23, I dont have that file, can I convince you to send it to me?
[06:32] <bennyp> dabaR: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 fails
[06:32] <Dr_Fate> seriosuly?
[06:32] <MrBIOS-> frank23, even after reinstalling the hdparm package
[06:32] <alpha255> Arrick, apt-get install samba? is that right?
[06:32] <dabaR> bennyp: no dhcp server:-/
[06:32] <frank23> MrBIOS-: I can send it but how can you not have it?  try a purge (remove completely in synaptic) and reinstall
[06:32] <bennyp> dabaR: I suspect no access to the ibook...
[06:32] <Dr_Fate> if he does not know how to install
[06:32] <dabaR> Dr_Fate: install what?
[06:32] <Dr_Fate> je sjould not use apt
[06:32] <Dr_Fate> he should use synaptic
[06:33] <Dr_Fate> or adaptec
[06:33] <dabaR> !enter
[06:33] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[06:33] <sethrd> What does one edit in order to do a dist-upgrade from breezy to dapper? I know it's still in testing.
[06:33] <dabaR> !dapper
[06:33] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[06:33] <bennyp> dabaR: what confuses me is that it worked a few hours before, but since I took out the CD, it's no-go
[06:33] <MrBIOS-> frank23, if I do that it breaks dependencies...more than I want to deal with. please, can you post it somewhere?
[06:33] <MrBIOS-> frank23, it will just make my life easier
[06:34] <Dr_Fate> Dapper will be late?
[06:34] <Davey> by 6 weeks
[06:34] <dabaR> see ^
[06:34] <alpha255> flight 5 is here...
[06:34] <Dr_Fate> that sucjs
[06:34] <Davey> alpha255: but it has been delayed 6 weeks
[06:34] <Se7h> Dr_Fate you can use it already
[06:34] <Arrick> aplha255: that was correct thanks
[06:34] <Davey> for extra testing and the addition of xubuntu officially
[06:34] <alpha255> Davey, better than the delay for vista ;)
[06:34] <Dr_Fate> I am using it
[06:35] <Davey> alpha255: too true, lol
[06:35] <Davey> Dr_Fate: Dapper? me too
[06:35] <Se7h> alpha255 lol
[06:35] <Arrick> alpha255: now how do I start it up?
[06:35] <Dr_Fate> Yes
[06:35] <MrBIOS-> frank23, not hdparm.conf
[06:35] <alpha255> Davey, and the price and flexablity is waaay better :)
[06:35] <Dr_Fate> Dapper
[06:35] <MrBIOS-> frank23, /etc/init.d/hdparm
[06:35] <dabaR> Arrick: to learn how to install things, you can use http://dabar.selfip.org/synaptic.html
[06:35] <frank23> MrBIOS-: oh the script...
[06:35] <MrBIOS-> frank23, yes!
[06:35] <Davey> alpha255: haha, and XGL > Aero, or whatever it's called
[06:35] <MrBIOS-> does dapper use xgl by default?
[06:35] <dabaR> alpha255: hehe/
[06:35] <monzie> hi all
[06:36] <dabaR> brb.
[06:36] <alpha255> this is fun :)
[06:36] <frank23> MrBIOS-: did you delete it?
[06:36] <metalhedd> i changed my system time and now I can use sudo it says 'timestampt oo far in the future
[06:36] <MrBIOS-> frank23, I dont know
[06:36] <MrBIOS-> frank23, dont think so
[06:36] <bennyp> dabaR: I can't even reach the ibook in a ping from ubuntu
[06:36] <crimsun> metalhedd: you can try rebooting.
[06:36] <dcgarri> Trying to fix DVD playback... i have seen that DMA is turned ON for /dev/cdrom... when attempting to play DVD, playback begins...plays about two frames, then Totem locks up and DVD drive is no longer accessible
[06:36] <frank23> metalhedd: maybe it will do that a few hours then it will be ok
[06:36] <MrBIOS-> frank23, can you post the file to an HTTP server somewher? DCC seems to be briken
[06:37] <bennyp> I'm using a regular ethernet cable, but that shouldn't matter, as ibook's have autosensing ethirnet ports
[06:37] <metalhedd> theres got to be a better way
[06:37] <Arrick> man, using synaptic would be nice if I had it on this machine
[06:37] <MrBIOS-> frank23, HTTP?
[06:38] <frank23> MrBIOS-: is pastebin ok?
[06:39] <sethrd> "xserver-xorg/config/device/driver not set"
[06:39] <sethrd> Aborting. Run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to correct this problem.
[06:39] <Arrick> How to run Samba?
[06:39] <alpha255>  Arrick you can use the command line
[06:39] <frank23> MrBIOS-: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10750
[06:39] <alpha255> Arrick, apt-get install package
[06:40] <alpha255> Arrick, synAPTic is a gui front end to apt
[06:40] <GNU_Style> anybody here is a master in VI  or EMACS21?
[06:40] <dabaR> Arrick: if you install it, then it runs by itself.
[06:40] <dabaR> Mastah, disastah! #vi #emacs
[06:41] <alpha255> Arrick, on command line go to the rc.d file location and use  ./smbd start
[06:41] <alpha255> Arrick, not positive on that location though
[06:43] <dabaR> alpha255: you can use sudo invoke-rc.d serverName start|stop|restart...
[06:43] <frank23> alpha255: a funny way to start a service but it would work ;)
[06:44] <Arrick> ok thanks
[06:44] <alpha255> dabaR, nice
[06:44] <dabaR> Arrick: if you install samba, it runs by itself. have you installed samba?
[06:45] <Arrick> dabar: yes
[06:45] <dabaR> Arrick: once samba is installed, it already runs. However, you need a user name and password set up for it to be able to log in to the shared folders or printers. there is a command for it. Have you red the following page?
[06:45] <dabaR> !samba
[06:45] <ubotu> rumour has it, samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[06:45] <amazon10x> hello, all
[06:46] <amazon10x> is there only one cd for ubuntu?
[06:46] <amazon10x> other distros usually have 10
[06:46] <tonyyarusso> amazon10x: One at a time, anyway.  There are separate CDs for Ubuntu and Kubuntu.
[06:46] <dabaR> There are several, for a few different versions. Ubuntu has only the main system on the CDs, other packages are downloaded from repositories.
[06:46] <dabaR> !components
[06:46] <ubotu> The rationale behind the different components of the ubuntu repositories (main, restricted, universe, multiverse) is described at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/components
[06:46] <alpha255> ubuntu's wiki is quite helpful! :)
[06:47] <Mosi> Does anyone know if Alien can convert Mac OS X .pkg files to .debs?
[06:47] <dabaR> Mosi: man alien sure does.
[06:47] <dabaR> Mosi: google might.
[06:47] <dcgarri> DVD playback is not working... DMA is enabled
[06:47] <amazon10x> what if i don't have a net connection?
[06:47] <joseph> where are the instructions for installing the nvidia driver?
[06:47] <dabaR> !dvd
[06:47] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[06:48] <Mosi> dabaR: Alien doesn't say anything about OS X .pkg's, but it does mention .pkg's for another distro, but i dunno if it's the same file type
[06:48] <dcgarri> i have installed libdvdcss2 as well
[06:48] <dabaR> amazon10x: you could download packages from the web page I will show, and burn them on a cd somewhere else, and then bring them home.
[06:48] <dabaR> !packages
[06:48] <ubotu> packages is, like, You can browse the packages in the Ubuntu repositories from http://packages.ubuntu.com .  It also has a nifty file search feature.
[06:48] <tonyyarusso> Mosi: It's worth a shot, since OS X is BSD-based, right?
[06:48] <alpha255> Mosi, slackware is the other distro that uses .pkg from what i remember
[06:49] <alpha255> Mosi, mabey solaris too
[06:49] <Mosi> ok, cool. next question. OS X .dmg's are just supposed to be HFS ISO's, right?
[06:49] <dabaR> What is this package that OSX has, that ubuntu does not:P I have a Mac, but I am limited in my usage of it...
[06:49] <alpha255> mabey is maybe
[06:50] <Mosi> dabaR: LimeWire for PPC :)
[06:50] <frank23> Mosi: maybe. it would explain how they run from a file
[06:50] <alpha255> dabaR, mac x uses pacakage to install
[06:50] <alpha255> dabaR, right click on the package and you'll see the contnents
[06:50] <dabaR> Mosi: and you do not want to use a good program for gnutella?
[06:51] <dabaR> alpha255: ya, I know that much:-/
[06:51] <Mosi> alpha255: .dmg isn't their package format, it's the standard file format they use for distributing source and junk
[06:51] <Mosi> dabaR: I'm not well versed on the alternatives. You got osmething better?
[06:51] <alpha255> Mosi, isn't dmg an image file?
[06:51] <dabaR> Mosi: try gtk-gnutella. that is what I use. Some people like frostwire, free limewire. Your package manager may have other suggestions. Search for gnutella, that may do it.
[06:52] <Mosi> alpha255: That's what i thought. So when i run file on the .dmg, why does it just say 'data'? It should say something about a HFS ISO file,f rom whati've read...
[06:52] <Arrick> alpha255: your tired?
[06:52] <alpha255> Arrick, yep long week
[06:52] <Mosi> dabaR: gtk starts with a g. that isn't g as in gnome, is it? cuz i'm using KDE ^_^;
[06:52] <Arrick> alpha255: man ive been trying to get this thing up since 5 this morning and its 1 am here
[06:52] <dcgarri> DVD playback fails.  DMA is on.  Libdvdcss2 is installed
[06:52] <alpha255> Mosi, not sure
[06:53] <ArIeZ> im trying to open galeon web browser it says starting galeon...
[06:53] <MistaED> mosi: gimp, actually
[06:53] <ArIeZ> but then it disapears
[06:53] <dabaR> MrBIOS-: Did you know there is a channel especially for dapper?
[06:53] <jcapote> how can you change your screen resolution after making a mistake at the install prompt when it asks what the maximum is
[06:53] <alpha255> Arrick, i got 4 hrs sleep yesterday
[06:53] <ArIeZ> anyne know why its doing this
[06:53] <Mosi> MistaED: thanks :)
[06:53] <joseph> where is the information on how to install the nvidia driver?
[06:53] <ArIeZ> anyone
[06:53] <MistaED> mosi: then the g in gimp is gnu, then it is just an infinite loop of gnu :P
[06:53] <MrBIOS-> dabaR, I dont think this is a dapper-speccific problem, as it was also doing it before I upgraded to dapper
[06:53] <frank23> !tell joseph about nvidia
[06:53] <alpha255> jcapote, try ctrl + /- on the keypad
[06:54] <Mosi> MistaED: gotta love those self-referencing acronyms. recursion FTW :P
[06:54] <jcapote> isnt there a sax like utility
[06:54] <Dr_Fate> what is the Dapper channel?
[06:54] <jcapote> this is an x prob
[06:54] <alpha255> jcapote, try ctrl and option  then tap + or - on the keypad
[06:54] <joseph> frank23: does that work with dapper?
[06:54] <Mosi> Dr_Fate: #ubuntu+1
[06:54] <frank23> joseph: I don't know.
[06:54] <frank23> joseph: actually I think it does
[06:54] <alpha255> Dr_Fate, it when you look stylin! ;)
[06:55] <jcapote> i want to relaunch the x config wizard somehow
[06:55] <alpha255> brb
[06:56] <dcgarri> DVD playback is failing... DMA is set to "on", Libdvdcss2 is installed... any other options?
[06:56] <ArIeZ> im trying to open my galeon web browser it says starting gal...
[06:56] <dabaR> dcgarri: what are you playing it in?
[06:56] <ArIeZ> then it vanishes
[06:57] <ArIeZ> anyone know why its doing this
[06:57] <dcgarri> "The Chronicles of Riddick"
[06:57] <Arrick> alpha255: how do I edit the /etc/fastb using the command line?
[06:57] <Arrick> alpha255: gedit will not open it
[06:57] <dcgarri> Is Totem the player i should be using?
[06:57] <sethrd> dcgarri: I think he meant the program.
[06:57] <frank23> dcgarri: try another player like totem-xine, vlc
[06:58] <dcgarri> will do
[07:02] <thomas> anyone here know anything about grub boot loader? well im trying to get my windows partition going its still there just grub doesnt show it in list but messing around with grub i noticed i can change some stuff to get it to boot like 06 1,0something
[07:02] <Arrick> alpha255:
[07:02] <thomas> how do i find out whatthe hdxx x,x stuff is and how to i set it to boot my windows partition
[07:02] <thomas> in grub.conf
[07:02] <dcgarri> when DVD does not play, the drive also loses function (No LED, eject button fails... cannot be ejected through UI either)... is there a way to restore that functionality wihtout restarting?
[07:03] <asymmetry> thomas: pastebin your grub.conf, and I'll help you out
[07:03] <Arrick> alpha255: any info for me about editing the /etc/fstab?
[07:03] <thomas> nice
[07:03] <thomas> k
[07:03] <fiendskull9> how do i add slackware 10 to GRUB's menu.lst?
[07:03] <mustard5> thomas, use the pastebin
[07:03] <answerguy> thomas: Grub's names for devices are (hd0,0) for what Linux calls hda1 (or sda1) and Windows calls C:
[07:03] <asymmetry> answerguy: the grub device names are relative to a specified partition
[07:03] <answerguy> That's an oversimplification of course, but it's probably right in your case.
[07:04] <fiendskull9> Can someone help me add an entry for Slackware 10.0 to the grub boot menu?
[07:04] <thomas> yea i know thats what gets me
[07:04] <asymmetry> fiendskull9: I can. Same thing, pastebin your grub.conf and link me.
[07:05] <answerguy> asymmetry: not to my experience ... they are based on the BIOS numbers for the drives: device 0x80 is (hd0)
[07:05] <thomas> it reads under hdb5 the windows partition
[07:05] <fiendskull9> asymmetry, you mean menu.lst?
[07:05] <thomas> but whats the x,x?
[07:05] <frank23> fiendskull9: try to find the lines you had in the /boot/grub/menu.lst of you slackware partition and paste them in you ubuntu menu.lst
[07:05] <asymmetry> grub.conf = menu.lst
[07:05] <fiendskull9> frank23, but i cant boot to slackware, i dont have it on my grub menu
[07:05] <answerguy> menu.lst is the original name; most distros symlink that to grub.conf
[07:05] <fiendskull9> !mount
[07:05] <ubotu> hmm... 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
[07:06] <frank23> fiendskull9: mount the slackware partition in ubuntu
[07:06] <sethrd> Hmmm.
[07:06] <fiendskull9> frank23, ok, brb
[07:06] <sethrd> How can I make it so that when I user logs into a terminal, they get a random message. Fortune I guess,
[07:06] <sethrd> I know it has to do with motd, but I want to it be random.
[07:06] <nalioth> sethrd: do you want to see it, or do you want it for all of your users?
[07:06] <fiendskull9> frank23, how do i mount it, its installed on hda4.
[07:06] <answerguy> sethrd actually you'd add a call to fortune to the /etc/profile.d
[07:07] <Nabiki> Is it usually a good idea to install updates as the computer says they are available?
[07:07] <nalioth> answerguy: stay out of system files
[07:07] <fiendskull9> frank23, actually, it asked me to install lilo, and i said no. so theres gonna be no conf.
[07:07] <sethrd> nalioth: I'm the only user as of now, but I plan on setting up my wife an account. She thinks Ubuntu is "cute" and she wants Tux as a pet.
[07:07] <nalioth> Nabiki: updates are for security reasons
[07:07] <nalioth> sethrd: to your ~/.bashrc on the last line put "fortune &"
[07:07] <Nabiki> nalioth, Includingupdates to Libc and such? :)
[07:07] <babo> Hi I'm getting a configure error ... something went wrong looking for the Xdbe (double buffer extension)
[07:07] <fiendskull9> asymmetry, so you have slackware 10.0 in your grub menu?
[07:08] <nalioth> Nabiki: anything that shows up as an update is for security reasons
[07:08] <sethrd> nalioth: Thank you very much.
[07:08] <answerguy> nalioth: if sethrd wants this for all of his users on his machine he can edit the system files.
[07:08] <Nabiki> I see. :)
[07:08] <nalioth> sethrd: see answerguys info
[07:08] <asymmetry> answerguy: repeating: stay out of the system files
[07:08] <answerguy> I'd just drop a one-line shell script into /etc/profile.d/
[07:08] <nalioth> sethrd: but to be safe, put the command in each users ~/.bashrc
[07:08] <frank23> fiendskull9: you didn't install a bootloader for slackware. oh. you're going to have to figure out the lines to add. hda4 is  (0,3) in grub numbers
[07:08] <answerguy> (On most Linux distros).
[07:08] <sethrd> Here is another one for ya.
[07:09] <sethrd> Regarding something.
[07:09] <jb0nd38372> I feel silly for asking this as i'm trying to pretty much self teach myself, but, here goes, whats theeasiest way to, say for example get something to runwith root permisions while it's running? without using terminal and sudo'ing it?
[07:09] <babo> My conky app just appears see through on a black screen - I can't see anything ...
[07:09] <Arrick> ok, night
[07:09] <sethrd> I just did it and tested it, and it works, but the fortune is put on my command line, instead of above it...
[07:09] <fiendskull9> frank23, so is hda2 0,1 in grub numbers?
[07:09] <Arrick> Can anyone tell me how to edit the /etc/fstab using the command prompt/
[07:09] <Arrick> ?
[07:09] <dabaR> sethrd: you did the & at the end?
[07:10] <sethrd> Yes.
[07:10] <answerguy> sethrd: sounds like you need to add an echo command
[07:10] <Nabiki>   /j #cedega
[07:10] <dabaR> sethrd: remove it./
[07:10] <frantic> hey guys, i need help :(
[07:10] <sethrd> Ok.
[07:10] <Nabiki> Has anyone here used cedega?
[07:10] <frank23> fiendskull9: yeah.  both drive# and partition# start at 0
[07:10] <ASTX813> Arrick, sudoedit /etc/fstab
[07:10] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, no, its horse sh*t
[07:10] <dabaR> Arrick: what editor? "sudo nano /etc/fstab"
[07:10] <sethrd> There we go!
[07:10] <ASTX813> frantic, be a bit more specific?
[07:10] <Arrick> thanks
[07:10] <Cyorxamp> Hi I could really use someone to help me with a few things - I am at the end of the line here folks - I have vowed to get my ubuntu installation working my noon or I forget the whole thing and my machines go back to windows - I could really use the help.
[07:10] <sethrd> WEE!
[07:10] <jb0nd38372> Nabiki I have used it a little, whats wrong?
[07:10] <sethrd> That was fun!
[07:10] <dabaR> nalioth: I always like your use of $1, &, and those things;P
[07:11] <ASTX813> Don't do it, Cyorxamp!!!
[07:11] <frantic> i made another windows installation cuz mine had been crapped up for a while, and it totally fudged up my grub
[07:11] <Cyorxamp> ASTX813, I have spent HOURS on this damn operating system
[07:11] <frantic> expected, but i can't figure out how to repair it
[07:11] <Cyorxamp> BY NOON is had better work
[07:11] <Cyorxamp> It's that simple
[07:11] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: You don't mean that.
[07:11] <ASTX813> frantic, did you make a lilo floppy?
[07:11] <dabaR> Cyorxamp: I have spent about a year and a half.
[07:11] <Cyorxamp> I do mean that
[07:11] <frantic> er no
[07:11] <Mosi> Cyorxamp: Hours? Installing Linux works differently than it does for Windows
[07:11] <Nabiki> jb0nd38372, I am getting ready to reinstall it because it is giving me an error that I have to install a version of it for it to operate, but it freezes up on any updates download atempts. ^^;;
[07:11] <sethrd> Take it back! *cries*
[07:12] <Cyorxamp> No Ubuntu is installed
[07:12] <frantic> i'm currently running hte ubuntu live cd
[07:12] <Cyorxamp> It's just getting it to do the simplist of things
[07:12] <frank23> Nabiki: I used cedega for WoW. It worked fine (after I configured it properly)
[07:12] <GNU_Style> can I run synaptic in kubuntu?
[07:12] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: Trust me, the longer you spend trying to solve something, the better you feel WHEN you solve it.
[07:12] <dabaR> GNU_Style: have you tried?
[07:12] <Cyorxamp> I could use someone 'personally' who can help me along the way when doing things
[07:12] <sethrd> I understand you want it to Just Work (TM), but it feels good after a while of hacking at it.
[07:12] <ASTX813> frantic, I think there's a tool on the knoppix cd to repair GRUB
[07:12] <GNU_Style> dabaR: no im afraid im gonna mess things up
[07:12] <Cyorxamp> sethrd, I know that feeling and I have had it over the months - theres just too many problems ocurring
[07:13] <Cyorxamp> So bollox to it
[07:13] <Nabiki> frank23, For me it freezes up a lot..  I haven't even installed a game yet. O.o;;
[07:13] <GNU_Style> ASTX813: that tool on knoppix to repair grub
[07:13] <GNU_Style> ASTX813: that tool on knoppix to repair grub?
[07:13] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: I understand. That is why I moved away from Windows. *chuckle*
[07:13] <dabaR> GNU_Style: feel free to try. Use aptitude to install it. That way if you need to uninstall, aptitude will clean up everything behind itself.
[07:13] <frank23> Cyorxamp: what takes time is not the doing, it's the learning. don't put deadlines like that ;)
[07:13] <Mosi> Cyorxamp: I mean getting it running. Linux is like this. All your configuration work happens up front. It takes a week or three to get everything running nice and smooth, but after that, it just *works*. In contrast, windows jsut works at first, but only because it auto-detects and fudges everything for you. Then, as time passes, little things start to show on the surface, and you slowly begin to pay the price, as problems start emerging.
[07:13] <Mosi>  On linux you pay your maintenance up front. Windows, it's stretched out.
[07:13] <Cyorxamp> I NEED SOMEONE - Yes that's right... I need someone 'personally' to help guide me though these things or I will just crack
[07:13] <jb0nd38372> Does Cedega run better or work more efficently when run with root privs?
[07:14] <Cyorxamp> This is a plea!
[07:14] <ASTX813> Sounds like GRUB's not broken, just that your MBR was wiped by windows (and i don't know the fix off the top of my head)
[07:14] <MrBIOS-> are there any tools that will help me determine WHICH process is causing disk IO?
[07:14] <Cyorxamp> I BEG OF YOU ALL#
[07:14] <dabaR> Cyorxamp: get to the point, please.
[07:14] <nub3> Hi  all    :apt-get gives me and error E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list .....
[07:14] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: You smoke? If not, start. Nicotine, even though it is a stimulate, relaxes eople.
[07:14] <frank23> jb0nd38372: no running as root for nothing is a bad idea
[07:14] <Mosi> Cyorxamp: i'll help with what i can. What do you need help with?
[07:14] <nub3> what do i do?
[07:14] <Cyorxamp> Mosi: pm?
[07:14] <dabaR> sethrd: excellent advice.
[07:14] <frantic> well, yeah, i can see my grub files on my disk here
[07:14] <GNU_Style> Mosi: have been using xp for 3 years no reinstallation, no problems lateky
[07:14] <Mosi> sure
[07:14] <sethrd> dabaR: Only reason I said it is because I'm about to go have one. Care to join me?
[07:14] <frantic> i've tried a few things but they all result in nothing being loaded
[07:14] <joseph> argh
[07:15] <MrBIOS-> are there any tools that will help me determine WHICH process is causing disk IO?
[07:15] <Nabiki> If windows whiped the MBR and you can still get into windows, then boot from a recovery CD or similar, and reinstall lilo or grub.
[07:15] <Mosi> GNU_Style: the need for weekly virus and spyware removal, that's a problem.
[07:15] <frantic> grub> root (hd2,0)
[07:15] <frantic> grub> setup (hd0)
[07:15] <frantic> is supposedly the fix, but it cleary isn't working
[07:15] <GNU_Style> Mosi: for spyware using firefox eliminates the problem, virus? an anti virus software will likely work
[07:16] <Nabiki> The only thing that XP does gracefully that I have not been able to do yet under Linux (and that I actually want to do) is the MMORPG's. :P
[07:16] <nub3> what is  'source' URIs in your sources.list  ?
[07:16] <GNU_Style> Mosi: for Linux its really hard to get it running when ur not connected to the net, like accessing the repos and stuff
[07:16] <Mosi> GNU_Style: Firefox is not the cure to everything. If you aren't checking for spyware, you aren't taking care of yourse. Go download AdAware and Spybod-SnD, and you'll find heaps
[07:17] <GNU_Style> Mosi: I have lavasofts ad-aware
[07:17] <ASTX813> I need some Wi-Fi help, myself.  I got ndiswrapper up & running, returns "bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present" but iwconfig doesn't show my wifi adapter at all.
[07:17] <frantic> i used to use ndiswrapper
[07:17] <ASTX813> Linux on laptop = muchos headaches
[07:17] <Mosi> GNU_Style: not good enough. You should have at least two, if not three spyware removers. There's no such thing as the cure-all scanner.
[07:17] <frank23> GNU_Style: Yeah I can't imagine trying to setup linux without the net. It's essential designed (as unix is) to be on a network
[07:17] <frantic> one sec, i think i have a document somewhere to explain the remaining steps
[07:17] <whyameye_> is openoffice 2.0.2 available for breezy as a binary package somewhere?
[07:18] <frank23> whyameye_: yes.
[07:18] <Nabiki> GNU_Style, I use WiFi, so I pretty much had to get it running before I  got connected to the net. :)
[07:18] <babo> Gizmo can't open my display ... I've installed gizmo on a 32 bit chroot environment, but then when I try to run it I get ... (gizmo:18752): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[07:18] <whyameye_> frank23: and where would that be?
[07:18] <ASTX813> Is anyone running on a Dell laptop with the Truemobile 802.11b/g?
[07:18] <GNU_Style> Nabiki: the problem with linux of it doesnt detect ur wifi hardware then ur stuck
[07:19] <frank23> whyameye_: it's 2.0.1 though is that ok?
[07:19] <frantic> aw crap, can't get to it
[07:19] <Nabiki> GNU_Style, Nah,  you just have to install the right drivers.
[07:19] <whyameye_> frank23: yeah I think I just found that one and installed. There still seems to be some weird bug with buttons on ooimpress.
[07:19] <frantic> ASTX
[07:19] <dabaR> babo: running that in a terminal, or as sudo?
[07:19] <frank23> GNU_Style: and that problem is due to manufacturers. the linux friendly ones are a breeze to setup
[07:19] <frantic> do you have wlan0 setup?
[07:19] <frantic> er, set up
[07:19] <GNU_Style> Nabiki: im having trouble just installing my NVIDIA drivers
[07:20] <ASTX813> ndiswrapper is all good, but the network device isn't showing up in any of my hardware tools
[07:20] <dabaR> !wireless
[07:20] <ubotu> hmm... wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
[07:20] <dabaR> !nvidia
[07:20] <ubotu> hmm... nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[07:20] <ASTX813> iwconfig doesn't have wlan0
[07:20] <Nabiki> GNU_Style, Windows is like that too.  The big difference is that in most cases if you have a driver problem on a windows machine, you are pretty much on your own.  Under linux you tend to be able to find people who care.
[07:20] <frantic> i think the problem is probably that you still need to do "ifconfig wlan0 up" and/or "ifup wlan0"
[07:20] <whyameye_> frank23: were you thinking of deb http://people.ubuntu.com/%7Edoko/OOo2 ./?
[07:20] <frantic> then you use.. ndiswrapper -m or something to install the module
[07:21] <Nabiki> GNU_Style, try: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[07:21] <fiendskull9> !logical
[07:21] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fiendskull9
[07:21] <GNU_Style> I cant  Imagine being able to install linux or a desert with no internet connection or no other compter to help
[07:21] <frank23> whyameye_: yes, that repository.  compiling from source might not be that hard I don't know. but it would take a while
[07:21] <ASTX813> frantic, ifconfig wlan0 - no such device
[07:21] <sethrd> GNU_Style: Really? That is the fun part! You get to learn so much in the process.
[07:21] <joseph> how do I make it so that the keyboard sequence of SHIFT + BACKSPACE does not cause GDM/X to restart?
[07:21] <Nabiki> GNU_Style, then sudp dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   and make sure the video is set to nvidia not nv.
[07:21] <frantic> what does ndiswrapper -help give you?
[07:21] <fiendskull9> !slackware
[07:21] <ubotu> fiendskull9: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:21] <fiendskull9> !ubuntu
[07:21] <ubotu> methinks ubuntu is an easy-to-use GNU/Linux desktop distro based on Debian.  http://ubuntu.com http://ubuntuforums.org http://wiki.ubuntu.com. It's Bantu for 'Humanity to others'. see !awards.
[07:22] <GNU_Style> Nabiki: I have a PCI express 5300 nvidia-gls doesnt support that yet, I googled around and they say use the one off nvidias site, but I have problem intalling it, It says compiler gcc version check failed
[07:22] <GNU_Style> sethrd: :)
[07:22] <answerguy> joseph: you mean [Ctrl] +[Alt] +[Backspace] ?  That's controlled by the XFree86-config "DontZap" setting (or it used to be)
[07:23] <joseph> answerguy: No I mean SHIFT + BACKSPACE
[07:23] <ASTX813> frantic, -help just gives me command-line args.  -l lists my network devices eth0, lo, and vmnet8, but no wlan0
[07:23] <Nabiki> GNU_Style, Make sure your compiler stuff is up todate, and that you have a current cups library. Uninstall ALL the nvidia stuff, then run the file from the website as  sudo <filename.run>
[07:23] <sethrd> GNU_Style: Really, everyone says Linux is a pain. Ya know what? I think it is the other way around. Windows gave me so many issues.
[07:23] <frantic> yeah, i wanna know what the options are, cuz one of them sets up the wlan0 device
[07:23] <sethrd> GNU_Style: With Linux, there are tons of people that want o help, and I've actually gone into a Slackware channel to get help with Gentoo, and they did help.
[07:23] <answerguy> joseph doesn't do that to me.
[07:23] <sethrd> Don't ask why I did, but I did, and I got he
[07:24] <sethrd> help that is.
[07:24] <Nabiki> If you go to the NDISWrapper website,  their wiki has step by step info for setting up wifi under ubuntu. :)
[07:24] <joseph> answerguy: are you using dapper?
[07:24] <sethrd> joseph: #ubuntu+1
[07:24] <answerguy> Not on this box.
[07:24] <GNU_Style> Nabiki: whats the diff between sh nvidia,run and sudo nvidia.run?
[07:24] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, I don't even know what your current problem is
[07:24] <GNU_Style> cant install dapper flight 4, installer hangs
[07:24] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, you could try explaining what this 'simple issue' is
[07:24] <Nabiki> GNU_Style,  you may need to sudo sh nvidia.run  but sudo has to be in there.
[07:24] <ASTX813> Nabiki, I went through their docs, but after following them, wlan0 doesn't appear under ifconfig or iwconfig
[07:25] <Cyorxamp> mustard5, No not in here - this channel is just stupidly crowded
[07:25] <whyameye_> frank23: I just tried oo 2.0.2 on my dapper machine and the problem was the same...so maybe it's me that's the problem... :-)
[07:25] <Nabiki> GNU_Style, sudo is what gives you superuser privlages.
[07:25] <frank23> whyameye_: ;)
[07:25] <babo> dabaR: running it in a terminal as 'user' ... the same 'user' that X is running as from root
[07:25] <Nabiki> ASTX813, Which network card are you using?
[07:25] <frantic> seriously astx, what are the options for ndiswrapper
[07:25] <frantic> there's like -h or something?  try running that
[07:25] <frantic> ndiswrapper -h
[07:26] <babo> dabaR: I've already copied /etc/passwd and /etc/groups into chroot. I'm running the xserver from the same user that I run gizmo from in chroot and I've just disabled the acl on my xserver using xhosts ... still the same error message ... :-(
[07:26] <sethrd> cpufrew: change failed with new_state 1 and result 0.
[07:26] <ASTX813> Nabiki, Dell Truemobile 1350 (broadcom chipset)  ndiswrapper -l says "bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present" but 'm stcuk there
[07:26] <sethrd> What is that, and why does it keep showing up on my screen?
[07:26] <Dalamar_M> does anyone know if or what should be modified , so that I can login with root on the boot screen ??
[07:26] <jb0nd38372> I have a second hard drive that has an ntfs partition, it has all my downloads on it from my window days,. is there anyway to fix it so when i want to access the drive I can do it w/o having to sudo everytime?
[07:26] <sethrd> Dalamar_M: Don't do that. That is bad.
[07:26] <GNU_Style> sethrd: debian people are naughty
[07:27] <liable> Dalamar_M: apppend init=/bin/bash to kernel line.
[07:27] <GNU_Style> but once you get linux running it ROCKS
[07:27] <Dalamar_M> liable : , sethk , Why is it bad ?
[07:27] <ASTX813> frantic, my options are -i inifile (installs), -d devid driver (use devid), -e driver (removes), -l (list), -m (write for modprobe)
[07:27] <frank23> babo: I remember that type of problem....  running Ubuntu i386 fixed everything ;)
[07:27] <frantic> ok
[07:27] <frantic> ndiswrapper -m
[07:27] <Nabiki> ASTX813, Did you follow the wiki and make the changes to your network configcreating the interface and such?
[07:28] <sethrd> cpufreq: change failed with new_state 1 and result 0.
[07:28] <sethrd> What is that, and why does it keep showing up on my screen?
[07:28] <babo> frank23: I am running i386 ... in chroot
[07:28] <ASTX813> lemme go back and double check (it was all yesterday), but i think so
[07:28] <Cyorxamp>  If linux was something physical I would have beaten it to a pulp in a blinding rage at this point - it's 6:22am here and I aint slept
[07:28] <sethrd> Oh, right, Intel Speedsteping in BIOS..
[07:28] <frank23> babo: I know but your problem stems from needing i386 chroot in the first place
[07:28] <Nabiki> Also, check in /etc/modules, and see if wlan0 is listed there.
[07:28] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: Get some sleep and come back to it.
[07:28] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, you should go to sleep then :)
[07:28] <Cyorxamp> I have done that too often
[07:29] <Cyorxamp> it is time to get this FIXED - or it GOES
[07:29] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, if its that frustrating you should go back to windows :)
[07:29] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: What exactly is the issue?
[07:29] <Cyorxamp> Linux has (what seems) wasted HOURS of my time
[07:29] <mustard5> Cyorxamp, save yourself some greif :D
[07:29] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: Feel free to PM it to me if you want.
[07:29] <Cyorxamp> sethrd, go in another channel if ur interested #cyorxamp
[07:30] <Toma-> i just spent 2 hours installing windows, only to have it shaft me in the backside too. so dont think its only linux that sux for installing:)
[07:30] <Dalamar_M> guy's , is there a possibility of booting to Linux lead to net connection problem in Windows ?
[07:30] <frank23> Cyorxamp: dual boot. take your time to figure out linux. It took me a long time to adopt it fulltime
[07:30] <ASTX813> Nabiki, is it important that I use the drivers from the wiki?  I think I used the most recent drivers direct from Dell
[07:30] <sethrd> Dalamar_M: No.
[07:30] <Dalamar_M> so was I thinking ...
[07:30] <Dalamar_M> should be my ISP
[07:31] <sethrd> Doubtful.
[07:32] <liable> Dalamar_M: stranger things have happened. it is possible that the linux driver has set a value on your iface card. unlikely, but do a full powercycle. ie, shut the machine completely down and restart.
[07:32] <Nabiki> ASTX813, the most important parts are probably the entry in /etc/modules, and the interface setup inthe config files.  However the drivers on the wiki have been tested and are known to be stable on  most systems.
[07:32] <nick_here> i am trying to install vmware, but getting error : http://pastebin.com/621308
[07:32] <Dalamar_M> liable : , this is exactly what I have done
[07:32] <Dalamar_M> I will tell you the whole story
[07:32] <Dalamar_M> I come home
[07:32] <dabaR> !enter
[07:32] <Dalamar_M> on windows , there is net & lan
[07:32] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[07:32] <ASTX813> Double checking all that, I'll let you know how it goes
[07:32] <Nabiki> the entry in /etc/modules is so that you don't have to 'modprobe wlan0' all the ime .^_^
[07:33] <Dalamar_M> I reboot to Linux
[07:33] <frank23> nick_here: install gcc-3.4 then export CC=gcc-3.4 before running config script
[07:33] <Dalamar_M> there is net , again
[07:33] <Dalamar_M> but when I reboot to win again
[07:33] <liable> Dalamar_M: please try and use punctuation, instead of enter.
[07:33] <Dalamar_M> liable : , ok .
[07:33] <Dalamar_M> whatever you say .
[07:34] <Dalamar_M> so , my point is that the time I rebooted from Lin To Win , there was authentication problems .
[07:34] <frantic> ok, i am off to toil with grub some more
[07:34] <Nabiki> Dalamar_M, If you keep putting three words on a line, and hitting enter, you will likely not get a lot of help because it is rude.  It also makes it hard to tell what you want at times because many people are chatting at once.
[07:34] <frantic> friggin windows
[07:34] <frantic> i'll fix YOUR mbr
[07:34] <Nabiki> Dalamar_M, Authentication problems, what kind?
[07:35] <liable> Dalamar_M: getting a dhcp lease or what?
[07:35] <pvd2006> On Ubuntu how could you remove every line that has a certain string in it.
[07:35] <pvd2006> in a text file
[07:35] <vbgunz> anyone know how to rename a mount from 18.0GB, etc to something more meaningful?
[07:36] <sethrd> What exactly is Ubuntu-NL?
[07:36] <Dalamar_M> pppoe problems of some kind.
[07:37] <Dalamar_M> yet strange thing is that over Ubuntu there is no LAN , but in Win there is lan but no PPPOE
[07:37] <Dalamar_M> oops
[07:37] <Dalamar_M> sorry
[07:37] <sethrd> pvd2006: sed -e s/<foobar>//" <file> > <file>
[07:37] <Dalamar_M> yet strange thing is that over Ubuntu there is no LAN , but in Win there is lan but no PPPOE.
[07:37] <sethrd> Er..
[07:37] <sethrd> pvd2006: sed -e "s/<foobar>//" <file> > <file>
[07:37] <pvd2006> Thanks a lot sethrd
[07:37] <sethrd> Sure thing.
[07:37] <Nabiki> Dalamar_M, So you can only access the local network under Windows and the Internet under Linux?
[07:38] <pvd2006> There are thousands and thousands of entries in this rootkit revealer that I am looking at, lol.
[07:38] <sethrd> pvd2006: You want to remove the entire line, or just a certian string?
[07:38] <pvd2006> the entire line
[07:38] <sethrd> Oh, not sure about that.
[07:38] <minghua> sethk: that removes the string, not _the line that contains the string_
[07:38] <minghua> sethrd: ^^^
[07:38] <pvd2006> hmm
[07:38] <sethrd> minghua: Yeah, I just realizehat is what he wanted.
[07:38] <answerguy> vbgunz: if you umount the filesystem, create a "meaningful" directory name and then mount the device thereto ... that should work.  Right?
[07:39] <Dalamar_M> Nabiki : , in Linux i seem to NOT connect to either , in Win I seem to have Lan (at least the local FTP server).
[07:39] <minghua> sethrd: but I agree sed is the correct tool
[07:39] <Nabiki> pvd2006, Are you wanting to do tht to a config file,or just any filein general?
[07:39] <sethrd> pvd2006: Have a looksie at theman sed.
[07:39] <pvd2006> its a .txt session file
[07:39] <liable> !services
[07:39] <ubotu> I heard services is to view and alter system services, use one or more of rcconf, sysvconfig, sysv-rc-conf, update-rc.d or ls, ln and rm in /etc/rc?.d/
[07:39] <sethrd> pvd2006: Er, man sed that is.
[07:39] <Britches27> nalioth
[07:39] <Nabiki> Dalamar_M, What kind of network adapter are you using?
[07:39] <nalioth> Britches27: hi
[07:40] <Nabiki> pvd2006, Have you tried throwing together a quick perl script?
[07:40] <babo>  could someone  have a look at my pastebin please ? .... some of my shared libraries seem to be pointing to i686 libraries http://ubuntu.pastebin.ca/46911  ... when I try to run gdb skype ... run  ... I get  [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] 
[07:40] <babo> Error while reading shared library symbols:
[07:40] <babo> Cannot find new threads: generic error
[07:40] <Britches27> nalioth may i try to pm you? i don't think it logged me in as registered
[07:40] <nalioth> Britches27: go ahead
[07:40] <pvd2006> Nabiki, no. I know a little perl, not enough to write something like so. Any Ideas?
[07:40] <sethrd> Not to be rude, but odds are if he is asking how to do that, he doesn't know any/much perl.
[07:40] <Dalamar_M> I have two : One is onboard ,and the other is PCI. Both Realtek RTL319 ...
[07:40] <minghua> sethrd, pvd2006: I believe sed -e "/string/d" file does it
[07:41] <sethrd> minghua: That will delete the whole line?
[07:41] <sethrd> minghua: That contains the string obviously.
[07:41] <pvd2006> Hmm, Ill give that a try, Ill just backup the file before i do it.
[07:41] <Dalamar_M> Nabiki : , I have two : One is onboard ,and the other is PCI. Both Realtek RTL319 ...
[07:41] <metalhedd> I just rebooted after doing quite a few system updates, and I seem to have lost my sound. :S
[07:41] <minghua> sethrd: according to my test, yes (I am by no means a sed expert)
[07:42] <sethrd> minghua: I came to find sed tonight.
[07:42] <jjstiff> how shall i video chat?
[07:42] <Nabiki> pvd2006, I could help a bit on something like that.  I would just suggest making a backup of the original file just in case. :)
[07:42] <minghua> pvd2006: my command send the output to the screen
[07:42] <Nabiki> Dalamar_M, Is your network configured with interfaces for at least one of the adapters?
[07:42] <sethrd> Doing a dist-upgrade and needed to replace breezy with dapper.
[07:43] <jjstiff> huh adapters?
[07:43] <minghua> pvd2006: you probably want something like: sed -e "/string/d" input > output
[07:43] <sethrd> jjstiff: What sort of video chat? MSN webcam chat?
[07:43] <minghua> pvd2006: and yeah, always make backup :-)
[07:43] <Nabiki> pvd2006, Mind if I message you?
[07:43] <daaku> i'm using fluxbox with gnome apps, and i'm trying to figure out how to reproduce the Xft settings that gnome-font-properties provides outside when not using gnome
[07:43] <jjstiff> i have ibm usb video cam
[07:44] <sethrd> jjstiff: That ne and dandy, but what do you want to chat on?
[07:44] <Dalamar_M> Nabiki : , I cant get your point .
[07:44] <sethrd> Fine and dandy that is.
[07:44] <jjstiff> um my ip address to yours
[07:44] <sethrd> GNOMEMeeting would work for you.
[07:44] <Nabiki> Dalamar_M,  You need to make sure that linux knows how to access at least one of  the connections, and that you have that connection connected.
[07:44] <jjstiff> thanks
[07:45] <Nabiki> Dalamar_M,   one is likely eth0 and the other eth1 or similar.
[07:45] <Dalamar_M> Nabiki : , yes , it's like that .
[07:45] <Dalamar_M> and as strange as it may seem , non of them work from time to time.
[07:46] <Dalamar_M> I used plog to see the err message , and what I saw was failure in CHAP authentication
[07:46] <sethrd> <3 USB flashlights for laptops!
[07:46] <pvd2006> Thanks a lot Sethrd and minghua, it worked!
[07:46] <sethrd> pvd2006: Sure, but I didn't do anything.
[07:47] <pvd2006> im going to have to save that command
[07:47] <pvd2006> lol
[07:47] <Cyorxamp> Would I be stupid for wanting to find a physical (i.e. I can see him/her and they can come round) linux expert in my area to assist me in getting things up and running on my machines?
[07:47] <Nabiki> pvd2006, Congrats. :Pmy method would have worked but been a little more complicated.
[07:47] <Dalamar_M> bye all
[07:47] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: Try and see if there is a LUG in your area.
[07:47] <minghua> pvd2006: you are welcome
[07:47] <Cyorxamp> LUG?
[07:47] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: Linux User Group.
[07:47] <Cyorxamp> Linux User Group?
[07:47] <Cyorxamp> lol
[07:47] <Cyorxamp> right
[07:48] <Nabiki> Cyorxamp, If you have that available, then great. The community is all about resources. :)
[07:48] <pvd2006> im glad I have cgywin on windows since im not on linux...
[07:48] <pvd2006> cygwin*
[07:48] <greppy> theres no man page for alias.  how can i set an alies of emacs -nw,  named edit  ?
[07:48] <Nabiki> :P My desktop is running linux, but my laptop is going to be a pain.hehe
[07:48] <sethrd> Nabiki: What kind of laptop you got?
[07:49] <minghua> greppy: help alias
[07:49] <greppy> ahh
[07:49] <greppy> thanx
[07:49] <Killgore> looking for help with a basic server install
[07:49] <greppy> whats a help file?
[07:49] <pvd2006> I have Ubuntu on this hard drive, just had to use windows for something.
[07:49] <greppy> or is help a command
[07:49] <ASTX813> Amen, Nabiki!  I'm still stuck, trying a different (older) driver to see if it works
[07:49] <Nabiki> sethrd, HPPavilian zv6000
[07:49] <sethrd> Nabiki: Gotcha. I'm on an Inspiron 8100 as of now, and in about a month, an Inpiron 600m.
[07:49] <ASTX813> Nabiki, do I need to do anything to remove the old driver from ndiswrapper or will the replacement just override?
[07:49] <minghua> greppy: it doesn't have a man page because its a built-in command of bash, not an executable file
[07:49] <Cyorxamp> http://www.wylug.org.uk/ !!!!!!!!!!!1
[07:50] <sethrd> Cyorxamp: Congrats.
[07:50] <ASTX813> Nabiki, Ah, I'm on an 8600.  Good luck to both of us.
[07:50] <greppy> ahh
[07:50] <tonyyarusso> Is there a metapackage for the server install like ubuntu-desktop?
[07:50] <Killgore> anyone know how to use/install blackbox
[07:50] <sethrd> Killgore: sudo apt-get install blackbox ?
[07:50] <Nabiki> ASTX813, I'm not totaly sure on thatone. :)  But the documention on the NDIS wrapper is pretty good. :)
[07:50] <Killgore> yer ive done that
[07:50] <Killgore> now i cant start it
[07:50] <carbo> how do I make file-roller able to handle .rar archives?
[07:51] <sethrd> nano .xinitrc
[07:51] <Killgore> just keeps saying cant start display ''
[07:51] <Nabiki> tonyyarusso, Do you mean that you have the server install, and want the rest?
[07:51] <jjstiff> i must get a microphone. what do you recommend?
[07:51] <sethrd> Then add blackbox && to it.
[07:51] <Killgore> that file doesnt exist
[07:51] <sethrd> Then do startx
[07:51] <sethrd> Make it then.
[07:51] <Killgore> neither does startx
[07:51] <tonyyarusso> Nabiki: No, the other way around.
[07:51] <sethrd> tonyyarusso: You have the rest but want a server install?
[07:51] <Nabiki> tonyyarusso, You have the desktop and want to nuke it? :P
[07:51] <Killgore> when i try startx i get command not foun
[07:51] <Killgore> d
[07:52] <sethrd> sudo startx
[07:52] <Killgore> ok ill try that first thing about xinitrc
[07:52] <dabaR> Killgore: log out, and select blackbox as session when logging back in.
[07:52] <carbo> how can i access .rar archives? the archive manager can't open them
[07:52] <tonyyarusso> sethrd, Nabiki: Well, not quite.  I want to add them.  b/c the server install would have things like lamp, etc., whatever would be common tools for that kind of thing; I'd like to have the option of both purposes.
[07:52] <Killgore> carbo i only have the server install
[07:53] <Killgore> oh
[07:53] <jjstiff> hey, thanks for this cool operating system
[07:53] <Killgore> dabaR
[07:53] <jjstiff> i just installed 5.10 this week
[07:53] <dabaR> try to give advice only if you are pretty sure what to do, otherwise you are not necessariliy helping.
[07:53] <Nabiki> tonyyarusso, You can always install the extra tools. :)
[07:53] <tonyyarusso> jjstiff: Congrats!
[07:53] <dabaR> jjstiff: oh, it's nothing. I did it in my spare time;)
[07:53] <sethrd> dabaR: I apologize. I thought that would work.
[07:53] <tonyyarusso> Nabiki: Yeah, I was wondering if there was a quick and easy way to get a recommended set.
[07:54] <dabaR> sethrd: no need to apologize. I did the same thing for a year:D
[07:54] <jjstiff> my buddy.... mark o: recommend i use it
[07:54] <sethrd> dabaR: I know this isn't Gentoo, but that was the way it was in Gentoo.
[07:54] <jjstiff> i was previously using mandrake 9
[07:54] <Nabiki> tonyyarusso, That I am not sure of, but there is a good chance that a lot of them may already be installed.
[07:54] <carbo> no ideas how to open .rar files?
[07:54] <sethrd> Then again, it's been awhile, so I could very well be wrong, and I'm sure I am now that I think about it.
[07:54] <sethrd> carbo: Did you try unrar?
[07:54] <tonyyarusso> Nabiki: I suppose that's probable.  Thanks though.
[07:54] <Killgore> sethrd: where does .xinitrc go?
[07:54] <sethrd> Killgore: Don't listen to me.
[07:54] <dabaR> carbo: install rar, unrar-free, or unrar-nonfree. Most in multiverse.
[07:54] <dabaR> !components
[07:54] <ubotu> The rationale behind the different components of the ubuntu repositories (main, restricted, universe, multiverse) is described at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/components
[07:55] <Nabiki> tonyyarusso, Sorry I could not be of more help.
[07:55] <sethrd> But for future reference, it goes in ~/
[07:55] <tonyyarusso> Nabiki: I suppose I could always ask someone with a fresh server install to send me their dpkg selections.
[07:55] <Killgore> ok :p
[07:55] <Nabiki> Does anyone know how to connect a USB drive ? :)
[07:55] <carbo> i can't find unrar in synaptic, i have multiverse. I installed unrar-free and archive manager still doesn't work with .rar's
[07:55] <liable> tonyyarusso: just install what you want..
[07:55] <sethrd> carbo: Get automatix.
[07:55] <dabaR> carbo: install nonfree.
[07:55] <jjstiff> who wants to video chat?
[07:55] <dcgarri> Dabar, thank you for the DVD info earlier everyone... Xine ftw woot
[07:55] <carbo> alright, i'll try that out
[07:56] <jjstiff> GnomeMeeting: yo!
[07:56] <Killgore> so does anyone know how to configure blackbox from a server install
[07:56] <dabaR> dcgarri: what is ftw?
[07:56] <tonyyarusso> liable: I guess that's the plan.  I'm coming at this from a "I've never really done that, but now that I theoretically could, I might try it" standpoint.
[07:56] <Killgore> dabaR: for the win
[07:56] <sethrd> Killgore: Same way you would for a desktop install I would assume. Blackbox being the window manage, correct?
[07:56] <dabaR> Finally I find out:)
[07:56] <joseph> w32codecs
[07:56] <joseph> !w32codecs
[07:56] <ubotu> somebody said w32codecs was a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
[07:57] <Killgore> sethrd: i have done the server insall and apt-get blackbox but now im stuck
[07:57] <jjstiff> i installed those w32codecs... but the file still didn't play... i already threw away the file
[07:57] <Killgore> all the guides assume it works from that point
[07:57] <carbo> another thing, I'm trying to install something using 'make install' but i get this error 'install: cannot run strip: No such file or directory
[07:57] <carbo> '. What is strip and where can i get it?
[07:57] <liable> tonyyarusso: well, what do you want to do?? have a webserver? install apache. if you find you need more functinality, install mysql, php etc.
[07:57] <dabaR> Killgore: a server install? did you install x-server-core?
[07:57] <sethrd> Killgore: You have xserver-xorg?
[07:58] <Killgore> dabaR: not manually no
[07:58] <Killgore> does it install anyway?
[07:58] <liable> no
[07:58] <Killgore> great
[07:58] <tonyyarusso> liable: Any others beyond the big four set that would be really handy?
[07:58] <sethrd> dabaR: If he apt-get install blackbox it should have installed X, right? Is it different on a server install?
[07:58] <Killgore> do i need x-server-core or xserver-org
[07:58] <liable> tonyyarusso: dont install anything you dont explicitely need, is a good start.
[07:58] <dabaR> sudo aptitude install x-window-system-core
[07:58] <tonyyarusso> liable: Okay.
[07:59] <dabaR> sethrd: unfort. I don't think so.
[07:59] <sethrd> dabaR: So it is different on a server install. Makes sense.
[07:59] <Killgore> ill go try that now
[07:59] <liable> sethrd: you dont need a server on the machine to run x apps.
[08:00] <dabaR> Killgore: install a dm, if you want, too.
[08:00] <liable> sethrd: ie, it may just serve the apps, and the client has the x server
[08:00] <sethrd> liable: I didn't say you did. He did a server install, and is now trying to get X working. He got blackbox, but I asked if since he got that if X would go with it.
[08:00] <dabaR> liable: yiou don't need a server? I disagree:P You need the X server.
[08:00] <renlore> hi how do i check my own ip address? :)
[08:00] <dabaR> renlore: ifconfig, dnsstuff.org
[08:00] <liable> dabaR: not on the machine running the app...
[08:00] <renlore> thanks
[08:00] <jjstiff> today on san antonio, a lady jumped off a bridge. she reportedly cause a large traffic jam with accidents: southbound 101
[08:01] <dabaR> On any machine that wants to run X apps, you need an X server.
[08:01] <liable> sethrd: x-server isnt a depends of any wm/desktop for the reason i just tried to explain.
[08:01] <neoxan> can someone help me? if i try to run "`find ./ -name "*.rar" -exec unrar -xpPASSWORD {} \;`" i get "bash: UNRAR: command not found"
[08:01] <neoxan> how to fix that?
[08:01] <Killgore> can i get that x-server stuff off the cd?
[08:01] <liable> dabaR: i can run any x app from my server, on my laptop, my server doesnt have an x-server...
[08:02] <jjstiff> hello
[08:02] <fiendskull9> !mount
[08:02] <ubotu> mount is, like, totally, 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
[08:02] <na7e-> in dapper is there a gnome equivilent of kwifimanager?
[08:02] <fiendskull9> how would i mount hda4 (my slackware partition) so i can view its files?
[08:02] <joseph> how do I make gnome look like the way debian does?  icons on the desktop, spatial nautilus, etc...?
[08:02] <vook> neoxan, apt-get install unrar
[08:02] <sethrd> dabaR: I think he is saying that a remote user could request an X app off a server without the server have an X server.
[08:02] <fiendskull9> !rar
[08:02] <ubotu> well, rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
, unrar is installed
[08:02] <liable> sethrd: bingo
[08:03] <neoxan> but the problem is, its wrote uppercase
[08:03] <sethrd> YaY! Point for me!
[08:03] <sethrd> karma+1
[08:03] <vook> neoxan, so typing unrar at the command line produces a successful result?
[08:03] <na7e-> joseph: gtweakui
[08:03] <dabaR> liable: who serves the app?
[08:03] <neoxan> yes.........
[08:03] <nick|here> frank23: i have installed gcc3.4, now what do i have to do? you have told me smt like  export cc=
[08:03] <neoxan> of course
[08:03] <neoxan> :/
[08:03] <liable> dabaR: the server serves the app, the client has the x-sever to write it to screen.
[08:03] <Nabiki> O.o I have never managed to get any response to any question in the cedega channel. hehe
[08:03] <fiendskull9> How do i mount another ext2 partition?
[08:03] <fiendskull9> !tell fiendskull9 about mount
[08:03] <liable> dabaR: its kinda backawards..
[08:03] <neoxan> i just want to extract hundrets of rar files with all the same password, vook
[08:03] <sethrd> dabaR: The server does. Computer A has an X server, while Computer B is just a server. Computer A requests gAIM, and Computerg ives it to them
[08:03] <frank23> nick_here:  export CC=gcc-3.4 before running config script
[08:04] <na7e-> joseph: but make sure you have your universe repositories enabled first
[08:04] <vook> neoxan, perhaps change your script to specify the direct path of unrar, ie /usr/bin/unrar
[08:04] <ASTX813> BOOOOOOOYAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!
[08:04] <sethrd> ASTX813: You scared me.
[08:04] <BigFatSea> helloo
[08:04] <ASTX813> Sorry for the outburst, but you all know the feeling! :)
[08:04] <joseph> na7e-:  bash: gtweakui: command not found
[08:04] <sethrd> ASTX813: Get soemthing to work?
[08:04] <neoxan> same problem, vook
[08:04] <sethrd> joseph: Did you apt-get install it?
[08:04] <frank23> nick|here: you need kernel headers too
[08:04] <joseph> sethrd: yep
[08:04] <na7e-> joseph: sudo apt-get install gtweakui
[08:05] <joseph> na7e- yea I just did that lol
[08:05] <ASTX813> Nabiki & sethrd, it was the driver I was using.  Newer isn't always better.  Had to go through and wipe all traces of my previous attempt
[08:05] <na7e-> joseph: you can find it in Applications>System
[08:05] <nick|here> frank23: i am a newbie. what do i have to do?
[08:05] <na7e-> joseph: administration
[08:05] <na7e-> joseph: errr, preference
[08:05] <dabaR> liable: what protocol do you use to connect to the server?
[08:05] <ASTX813> Hey, did frantic get his answer on how to repair his mbr after reinstalling windows?
[08:05] <Nabiki> ASTX813, Congradulations. :)
[08:06] <liable> dabaR: vnc or ssh
[08:06] <liable> dabaR: there are others.
[08:06] <dabaR> ssh with X forwarding?
[08:06] <frank23> nick|here: install  kernel-headers-386  (or whatever kernel you are using)
[08:06] <liable> yes
[08:06] <dabaR> liable: you are 100% sure on this?
[08:06] <na7e-> joseph: the nautilus gtweakui you'll be particularly interested in
[08:06] <sethrd> No, SSH with X forwarding is crap. For that, the server needs X.
[08:06] <joseph> thanks got it
[08:06] <jjstiff> bigfatsea::::
[08:06] <liable> dabaR: positive, google for xserver howto's, most explain the situation.
[08:06] <ASTX813> Now I just have to get XGL running :)  Not entirely sure my system will handle it, but I've heard someone did it with the same computer I have
[08:06] <ASTX813> !xgl
[08:06] <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/
[08:07] <sethrd> liable: In X forwarding over SSH, the server has the X server, not the remote user.
[08:07] <liable> dabaR: its the reason why no x apps will have depends on x servers..
[08:07] <ASTX813> Damn, I'm on breezy
[08:07] <dabaR> liable: aha. :P
[08:07] <liable> sethrd: no
[08:07] <koobi> has anyone had problems with Seveas's mirrors even after authenticating the PGP keys?
[08:07] <sethrd> liable: You are 100% sure on this?
[08:07] <dabaR> sethrd: ^
[08:08] <sethrd> dabaR: ?
[08:08] <nick|here> frank23: E: Couldn't find package kernel-headers-386
[08:08] <Morrowyn> morning
[08:08] <neoxan> can someone help me? if i try to run "`find ./ -name "*.rar" -exec unrar -xpPASSWORD {} \;`" i get "bash: UNRAR: command not found" -- why is unrar typed uppercase??
[08:08] <neoxan> any idea?
[08:08] <neoxan> :<
[08:08] <vook> neoxan, beats the &^% outta me, this worked when I tried -     find ./ -name "*.rar" -exec unrar x {} \;
[08:09] <na7e-> neoxan: unrar isn't a command, use rar plus some option
[08:09] <ASTX813> Before I activate my wifi...  how well will linux handle two network adapters simultaneously?
[08:09] <na7e-> neoxan: unless you want to install unrar in synaptic
[08:09] <neoxan> ???
[08:09] <neoxan> i did....
[08:09] <crimsun> ASTX813: just fine
[08:09] <neoxan> but that was not my question
[08:09] <vook> unrar is a command
[08:09] <neoxan> :P
[08:09] <frank23> nick|here: what kernel are you running?   uname -r
[08:09] <vook> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 163976 2006-02-04 12:54 /usr/bin/unrar
[08:09] <minghua> nick|here: apt-cache search linux-headers (then find the exact package name)
[08:09] <sethrd> Wow, my system is buggered...
[08:09] <Morrowyn> neoxan sudo -apt-get install rar/unrar
[08:09] <liable> sethrd: geez, read my comments to dabaR . i had xfce4 on my sever to have a play with x forwarding and this is my dpkg info Package: xserver-xfree86
[08:09] <Morrowyn> perhaps?
[08:09] <neoxan> no...
[08:10] <liable> State: not installed
[08:10] <neoxan> :P
[08:10] <jjstiff> what's wrong?
[08:10] <bigsky> fuck con may
[08:10] <sethrd> bigsky: Language.
[08:10] <na7e-> neoxan: why is it uppercase?  no idea
[08:10] <neoxan> it cant be found because unrar is typed uppercase
[08:10] <bigsky> hiii
[08:10] <sethrd> liable: I'm just trying to mix things up.
[08:10] <jjstiff> hi
[08:10] <bigsky> can i ask a question
[08:10] <dabaR> no
[08:10] <jjstiff> no
[08:10] <na7e-> neoxan: are you sure unrar is installed and not just rar?
[08:10] <sethrd> I think you just did.
[08:10] <liable> sethrd: well, i tire of explaining ad nauseum.
[08:10] <bigsky> can i sak
[08:10] <neoxan> na7e-, zomg, yes
[08:10] <jjstiff> hey who wants to video chat?

[08:11] <vook> neoxan, show us the output of this command 'ls -lah /usr/bin/unrar'
[08:11] <dabaR> try /topic to find out what is on the menu.
[08:12] <vook> sorry about the lah, just habit
[08:12] <dabaR> vook: use which. "which unrar"

[08:12] <neoxan> :/
[08:12] <matthew_w> Hey - for some reason I can't get my desktop screen resolution above 1280x1024, but when I had m$, it could go much higher.  Ideally I want 1600x1200, any ideas/suggestions?
[08:12] <nick|here> frank23: downloading the headers now. do i have to do another?
[08:12] <jjstiff> hello
[08:12] <jjstiff> who can show me how to use gnome meeting?
[08:12] <neoxan> why does nobody believe me in here`?
[08:12] <jjstiff> huh?
[08:12] <dabaR> matthew_w: you should fixres.
[08:12] <neoxan> :D
[08:12] <dabaR> !fixres
[08:12] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:12] <frank23> nick|here: headers and gcc-3.4 are all you need if I remember right
[08:12] <protocol1> shit my air matress just deflated....duck tape didnt cut it
[08:12] <na7e-> neoxan: did you try '' or "" around unrar?
[08:12] <vook> dabaR, does which distinguish symlinks?
[08:12] <Killgore> ok i seem to have an x-server now but i still dont have startx
[08:12] <jjstiff> go get a new bed foo
[08:12] <neoxan> wait, ill try
[08:13] <matthew_w> I'll check that out, be back in a second.
[08:13] <neoxan> :)
[08:13] <frank23> nick|here: do you have a slow connection?
[08:13] <poptone1> hey... can anyone tell me what I need to do to make ubuntu download torrents at more than 20kbps?
[08:13] <jjstiff> get one of those wooden one with metal hidges so its like five pieces
[08:13] <jjstiff> plus get a really nice mattress
[08:13] <protocol1> jjstiff, can you hang on a bit?
[08:13] <sethrd> So, I guess I can't get X running because I don't have any devices in xorg.conf
[08:13] <Killgore> poptone1: what client are you using
[08:13] <nick|here> frank23: 256kb/s
[08:13] <neoxan> na7e-, doesnt work either
[08:13] <neoxan> :(
[08:14] <dabaR> Killgore: installed x-window-system-core?
[08:14] <poptone1> kilgore, I'm using the ootb default command line client btlaunchmany
[08:14] <na7e-> neoxan: then i'm not sure, check #bash, they'll be more helpful and there's less talking
[08:14] <Killgore> dabaR: i used sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
[08:14] <jjstiff> gnomemeeting... do i have to have any specific port open?
[08:14] <poptone1> at the uniy with my laptop it jams but I had to do something and now I forget what it was
[08:14] <Madpilot> hi all
[08:14] <dabaR> Killgore: install the package I mentioned.
[08:14] <dabaR> Madpilot: hullo.
[08:14] <odat> hi everyone i have a .jar file that i need to open with java but there is nothing in my right click menu to do so   any help
[08:14] <vook> neoxan, could try it in a different shell, such as sh or zsh, or make a script of if it.
[08:14] <na7e-> neoxan: i hate to send people elsewhere, but I think that's the best course of action tbh
[08:14] <odat> i have java 1.5 installed
[08:14] <jjstiff> hey madpilot
[08:15] <frank23> nick|here: so 16 KB/s? takes a while for downloads
[08:15] <jjstiff> you fly?
[08:15] <jjstiff> hey,
[08:15] <dabaR> odat: java blah.jar
[08:15] <jjstiff> you wanna video chat? can you tell me how?
[08:15] <protocol1> jjstiff, you want to try the gnomemeeting connection out?....want me to pm you
[08:15] <frank23> nick|here: or is it 32 kB/s?
[08:15] <jjstiff> hell yea
[08:15] <Madpilot> jjstiff, I do fly - I know zip about vid chat, though :P
[08:15] <jjstiff> protocall gonna hook it up right now
[08:16] <nick|here> frank23: now all downloaded and installed
[08:16] <jjstiff> just install gnomemeeting with synaptic
[08:16] <frank23> nick|here: k    export CC=gcc-3.4  then run config
[08:16] <protocol1> i think i have it already
[08:16] <odat> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: DVDRipper/jar
[08:16] <Killgore> dabaR: getting it now
[08:16] <jjstiff> oh six
[08:16] <jjstiff> sic
[08:16] <jjstiff> i mean.. you fly... hell yea... how fast do you go?
[08:17] <astx813> Can vmware create a bridge between my virtual machine and both of my host's network cards, or does that require two bridges?
[08:17] <dabaR> odat: identify with nickserv, /j ##java
[08:18] <sethrd> C/q
[08:18] <neoxan> na7e-, less talking is good.. ;) theres none :D
[08:18] <protocol1> jjstiff, go to #gmeeting
[08:19] <Cyorxamp> Ok I have sent an SOS to my local LUG
[08:19] <na7e-> neoxan: ha!  sorry
[08:19] <Cyorxamp> I'll see if they have mercy and come to my rescue
[08:19] <neoxan> not your fault :(
[08:19] <frank23> nick|here: anything that needs to compile kernel modules needs to use gcc-3.4
[08:19] <Hoxzer> how do I use sftp?
[08:19] <Ini5> why dosen't X split #ubuntu in several channels, just with different timestamps? I think we are to many in here...
[08:19] <frank23> Cyorxamp: try to be a little less "urgent" in your dealings. You might have better luck
[08:20] <Cyorxamp> frank23, if you are not "urgent" as you say in this channel YOU GET IGNORED
[08:21] <Cyorxamp> And yeah Ini5 - this channel is too busy
[08:21] <Cyorxamp> People should make use of #ubuntu-hardware more often
[08:21] <Cyorxamp> and other such channels
[08:21] <frank23> Cyorxamp: not really...  your CAPS usage might cause that though
[08:21] <dabaR> Cyorxamp: I have not seen one question by you yet. Only complaints. YOu have to ask a question to get an answer.
[08:21] <nick|here> frank23: now vmware installed without errors. but when i try to start: vmware is installed but it has not been configured for this system. to reconfigure.....
[08:22] <dabaR> Hoxzer: what do you mean?
[08:22] <Cyorxamp> dabaR, theres no point in asking any questions in here
[08:22] <Hoxzer> dabaR: what do I write as location?
[08:22] <Cyorxamp> you just get a half asses answer if anything
[08:22] <nick|here> when i try to reconfigure the terminal freezes
[08:22] <Cyorxamp> or a silly comment
[08:22] <astx813> frank23, sudo vmware-config.pl
[08:22] <frank23> nick|here: did you try to rev
[08:22] <frank23> nick|here: did you try to reconfigure?
[08:22] <Cyorxamp> unless your question can be answered by ubotu - there is no point to this channel
[08:23] <Cyorxamp> at least not when it is busy
[08:23] <nick|here> yes : sudo vmware-config.pl
[08:23] <Ini5> Cyorxamp, it's still possible having several channels under the same name, I guess that's off topic in here. I'll talk to undernet sop...  -we also need a new protocol and make pvt messages channel based..
[08:23] <dabaR> Hoxzer: what program?
[08:24] <Hoxzer> ....
[08:24] <Hoxzer> nautilus
[08:24] <dabaR> Cyorxamp: stop pressing enter if you do not have a question, or you will h ave to leave.
[08:24] <Hoxzer> I just need to know where do I put my username
[08:24] <matthew_w> Ok hey guys
[08:24] <astx813> frank23, if you're gonna run an xp virtual machine, I recommend TinyXP
[08:24] <matthew_w> I'm doing fixres but
[08:24] <matthew_w> Nowhere in the manual does it say anything about Horizontal and Vertical frequencies for a flatscreen monitor.
[08:24] <Madpilot> Cyorxamp, by #ubuntu standards, this isn't that busy right now...
[08:24] <Cyorxamp> dabaR, lol... thats it - demonstrate the heavy handed ego maniac op - plenty of that goes on here
[08:24] <matthew_w> Come to think of it, neither does ACER's website.
[08:25] <frank23> Cyorxamp: bot answers are for common things. If they exist, it's to not have to explain the exact same things over and over. Most people are happy to be pointed in the right direction
[08:25] <frank23> astx813: ? me?
[08:26] <nick|here> astx813: i'm gonna run vmware :)
[08:26] <matthew_w> All it has is ;   	19" TFT LCD, 1280 x 1024 native resolution, 700:1 contrast ratio, 140 /140 horizontal/vertical viewing angle, VGA and DVI-D connectors, 300 cd/m2 brightness, 8ms response time, silver color
[08:26] <astx813> Whoops, sorry guys, got your convo mied up
[08:26] <astx813> mixed
[08:26] <frank23> astx813: what is different about TInyXP?
[08:26] <Killgore> dabaR: what exactly am i installing with this x-window-system-core
[08:27] <frank23> astx813: oh, the OS is reduced
[08:27] <frank23> astx813: is that it? can you reduce it from a full install?
[08:27] <astx813> frank23, it takes up around 400 meg installed, has none of the m$ bloat (like IE & WMP)
[08:27] <jjstiff> hey, who has a sidekick?
[08:27] <astx813> and it uses about 35 meg of ram
[08:28] <nick|here> astx813: im gonna use vmware to boot my existing xp.
[08:28] <frank23> nick|here: I don't know how well that works. XP will get a hardware change shock
[08:28] <astx813> also an option.  I'm trying to figure out how to have my dual-boot system so I can either boot directly into Win or boot in a virtual machine, but it's tricky
[08:29] <dabaR> Killgore: the x window system core software that allow running the x server, like startx.
[08:29] <Killgore> dabaR: thats kinda handy "p
[08:29] <Killgore> :p
[08:29] <nick|here> frank23: im using xp in this machine.
[08:29] <astx813> So far, I get a BSOD as soon as it goes graphical (running my old xp partition in vm)
[08:29] <frank23> nick|here: yes but when you boot in vmware all the hardware will change to the virtual hardware
[08:30] <fyrestrtr> astx813: you can't do that to Windows XP -- hardware changes are a nightmare to windows xp
[08:30] <matthew_w> Arrr.. this is frustrating, I need the higher resolution because I literally can't fit all the stuff I normally use on the screen, lol.
[08:30] <astx813> fyrestrtr, from what I was reading, it sounded doable using hardware profiles
[08:30] <nick|here> frank23: so i have to boot xp when i have to
[08:30] <fyrestrtr> no, hardware profiles are for laptops.
[08:31] <fyrestrtr> for things like docked/undocked states.
[08:31] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: what's the problem?
[08:31] <astx813> vmware has a guide on how to do it
[08:31] <jjstiff> how do i connect to someone with gnomemeeting?
[08:31] <frank23> astx813: really? I might just do that too if I can set it up
[08:31] <Nabiki> Where is a good place for coding support? :)
[08:31] <fyrestrtr> what language?
[08:32] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; for some odd reason, I simply can't get a resolution higher than 1280x1024, when I had higher on M$.  The problem here isn't fixed by the !fixres response from ubotu, either.
[08:32] <Nabiki> C++
[08:32] <astx813> frank23, check the vmware documentation.  it sounds tricky, but they say it can be done
[08:32] <na7e-> Nabiki: is there a c++ channel?
[08:32] <jjstiff> does anyone have that gateway 21"wide screen
[08:32] <mItNitOx> http://mirror4.escomposlinux.org/tira/ecol-04.jpg
[08:32] <jjstiff> it looks pretty kewl with a built in usb hub
[08:33] <na7e-> Nabiki: /join #C++
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: refresh rates are fixed for LCDs
[08:33] <nick|here> frank23: now, how can i uninstall vmware :)
[08:33] <frank23> astx813: bah... I don't use vmware that much. I doubt it's worth it for me
[08:33] <frank23> nick|here: there is an uninstall script in /usr/local/bin  I think
[08:33] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: what size screen is it?
[08:34] <jjstiff> its like 1600 by 1250
[08:34] <jjstiff> or 1050
[08:34] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; 19"
[08:34] <astx813> I just don't want to have to boot to XP unless I have to, but I don't want to deal with having an XP virtual machine and a separate xp partition wasting all that space
[08:34] <jjstiff> ah... i m trippin huh
[08:34] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: 19" LCD?
[08:35] <astx813> nick|here, if not, i think make uninstall?
[08:35] <ashley3453> hi, I have two questions. 1) what is the cool customizations to gnome called that people use so i can search for it? and 2 ) what is a good front end for mysql like mysql front in windows ? thanks very much in advance
[08:35] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; Yes indeed.
[08:35] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: what resolution are you after?
[08:36] <astx813> ashley3453, dunno about the gnome theme (was just thinking of it, myself, though).  MySQL, how much function do you want?
[08:36] <ashley3453> i don't wanan type out my schema :P
[08:36] <astx813> just administrative tools or basic usage?  ah
[08:37] <ashley3453> so create tables and relationships
[08:37] <ashley3453> etc
[08:37] <GNU_Style> how to run superkaramba in KDE 3.5.1 they say its included in the release?
[08:37] <astx813> I've only used webmin for basic stuff, but that's not the best way
[08:37] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; Hrm, maybe ... well, I'm not sure if I'm 4:3 aspect or 5:4 aspect, so 1600x1200 and 1600x1280
[08:37] <odat> anyone know a good tool to make kvcd's?
[08:37] <Madpilot> ashley3453, which Gnome customizations? Do you mean Gnome's themes, or something more exotic?
[08:38] <ashley3453> on the forums people post insanely cool desktops with little weather things, and menus that look like mac ones ... how do they do that ?
[08:38] <Toma-> ashley3453: gdesklets
[08:38] <astx813> The mac-style widgets are gdesklets
[08:38] <ashley3453> astx813, i tried phpmyadmin, but it sucks for doing relationships
[08:38] <nick|here> frank23: yep there is an uninstall script. i am going to make a fresh installation. maybe it works
[08:38] <ashley3453> ahh gdesklets, cool
[08:38] <astx813> ashley3453, i'm told i suck at relationships, so....
[08:38] <fyrestrtr> ashley3453: sudo apt-get gnome-theme-extras gdesklets gdesklets-data mysql-query-browser mysql-admin
[08:39] <sfar-ubu> kjnbfvgfrgc          vfcc c                                                                                                             Q1
[08:39] <Davey> is it possible to have more than one cursor defined? I want to use a wacom table and my regular mouse
[08:39] <sfar-ubu> wops, sorry for that.. it was my son :)
[08:39] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; Any ideas?
[08:39] <ashley3453> fyrestrtr, are you sure those mysql packages will handle table/relationship creation, from what I had read i needed something more like mysqlcc or yamysqlfront ?
[08:39] <fyrestrtr> Davey: sure
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> ashley3453: those will take care of almost anything  mysql related (they are made by mysqlab)
[08:40] <ashley3453> sweet as guys, thanks for your help
[08:40] <astx813> we;re suckers for the ladies
[08:40] <fyrestrtr> ashley3453: for something more of database design, lookup dbdesigner -- or you can use OO Base to connect to MySQL.
[08:41] <Healot> suckers for ladies, yes I guess I am :)
[08:41] <Arafangion> Where can I find javac on my system?
[08:41] <Arafangion> (I already have java installed, and Eclipse works flawlessly, I just can't find javac)
[08:41] <astx813> ashley3453, make that gnome-themes-extras (themeS)
[08:41] <fyrestrtr> Arafangion: you probably only have the JRE installed, you need the SDK for javac
[08:42] <fyrestrtr> Arafangion: for fun, try which javac at a prompt
[08:42] <JonathanKent> !restrictedformats
[08:42] <ubotu> I heard restrictedformats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[08:42] <Arafangion> fyrestrtr: So how does Eclipse still compile it properly?
[08:42] <Arafangion> JonathanKent: Gee, do you even THINK I know? Try to apply some intellegence.
[08:42] <fyrestrtr> Arafangion: well then check in Eclipse configuration which one its using
[08:42] <Arafangion> fyrestrtr: Well, "javac" doesn't appear in my path at all.
[08:42] <fiendskull9> !grub
[08:42] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> Arafangion: could be that Eclipse has its own, not sure. Haven't installed Eclipse on ubuntu yet.
[08:43] <ashley3453> E: Invalid operation gnome-themes-extras
[08:43] <ashley3453>  .... do i need to escape those -'s ?
[08:43] <njoubert> Hi everyone! Could someone help me out with setting up a new partition on my HDD. I have it partitioned and i added it to my fstab file, and my root user can access and write to it, but i can't seem to get anyone else permission to write to it. it is a vfat partition so that my dual-boot system can access it under windows or linux. what is the proper fstab config to get it readable and writable for all users?
[08:43] <Killgore> 777
[08:43] <fyrestrtr> on my Windows box, I can set it to whatever SDK I want. Check in the build section to see what it is using.
[08:43] <Killgore> chmod
[08:43] <Arafangion> fyrestrtr: That is a posibility I did not consider.
[08:43] <Davey> isn't there some X config checker?
[08:44] <calidad> join /#ubuntu-es
[08:44] <fyrestrtr> njoubert: add users to the fstab line before the 0 0 numbers
[08:44] <Killgore> there you go
[08:45] <dabaR> ashley3453: mysql is a relational sql based database. using sql, you can specify constraints such as foreign keys(relationships) and create tables. yamsqlblah and mysqlcc are graphical frontends, that allow for graphical creation of tables and such.
[08:45] <ashley3453> lol, just saw what i had done wrong, that'll teach me to copy paste without reading
[08:45] <njoubert> great, that works. I also didnt change the directory permissions to 777
[08:45] <njoubert> stupid me, thanks!
[08:45] <Arafangion> fyrestrtr: Interesting, "find / -iname javac" results in NO results, not even in eclipse's directory!
[08:46] <fyrestrtr> Arafangion: see what it is in Eclipse's build settings. Are you compiling java programs in Eclipse?
[08:46] <Delicates> what is nowday the best partitioning/formatting tool?
[08:46] <ashley3453> dabaR, thanks, i'm familiar with SQL, im just lazy ... i want to click 'new table' buttons, not type create table ....
[08:46] <Arafangion> fyrestrtr: Yes.
[08:46] <Healot> Arafangion: locate offers better search
[08:46] <Ini5> fyrestrtr, can you pls explain this command:
[08:46] <Ini5> sudo apt-get gnome-theme-extras gdesklets gdesklets-data mysql-query-browser mysql-admin
[08:46] <Arafangion> Healot: Wrong.
[08:46] <dabaR> ashley3453: well, mysql-server will not provide that.
[08:46] <Arafangion> Healot: It's much, much less accurate.
[08:46] <ashley3453> he missed the install
[08:46] <Healot> right...
[08:47] <Healot> with the right regexp
[08:47] <dabaR> night;)
[08:47] <Madpilot> Ini5, "apt-get" is the command-line installer - Synaptic is the graphical version
[08:47] <Madpilot> Ini5, so that 'sudo apt-get install...' line will install all of the packages listed
[08:47] <fyrestrtr> ashley3453: the admin will do that for you
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> to be more accurate, Synaptic is a 'front-end' to apt-get.
[08:48] <Ini5> Madpilot, I know that, and I'd like to install some gdesklets, but while typing: apt-get gdesklets, it says: invalid operation gdesklets
[08:48] <Arafangion> Healot: To be more precise, "locate" is only as accurate as the database built via "updatedb"
[08:48] <Madpilot> Ini5, "sudo apt-get install gdesklets"
[08:48] <fyrestrtr> Ini5: you need to give it a command. sudo apt-get install gdesklets
[08:49] <Ini5> fyrestrtr, also if I run the command as root?
[08:49] <Healot> yeah... mine working fine...
[08:49] <Arafangion> Healot: Now, that may or may not be run automatically, depending on the distro (ie, after you install packages, nightly, etc).
[08:49] <Madpilot> Ini5, you probably want gdesklets-data too
[08:49] <Healot> I am a cron(h)istic person
[08:49] <fyrestrtr> Ini5: well if you are already root, then you don't need sudo
[08:49] <Ini5> Madeye, yes, what do I do?
[08:49] <Madpilot> Ini5, having 'sudo' in front means you don't need root
[08:49] <Arafangion> Healot: All cron's are the same to me, imho.
[08:49] <Killgore> dabaR: u still here
[08:49] <Arafangion> Healot: But I don't do anything fancy.
[08:49] <Madpilot> Ini5, "sudo apt-get install gdesklets gdesklets-data"
[08:50] <Healot> just a good cycle of updatedb do fine... I can't remember the location of all the files, can I?
[08:50] <Ini5> tnx guys
[08:50] <astx813> For some reason, the battery monitor desklets weren't working on my system
[08:50] <dabaR> Killgore: yes.
[08:50] <fyrestrtr> astx813: you probably need lmsensors.
[08:50] <Killgore> dabaR: whew i thought ud gone to bed
[08:50] <astx813> Least of my worries though (and besides, the gnome battery monitor by the clock is working, so it'll do)
[08:50] <_little_wolf_> err
[08:50] <_little_wolf_> help?
[08:50] <_little_wolf_> !help
[08:51] <Ini5> Couldn't find package gdesklets...
[08:51] <fyrestrtr> astx813: another good one to have is gkrellm
[08:51] <Killgore> dabaR: ive installed that package/s are there any conf utils i need to run?
[08:51] <ashley3453> thank you all for your help
[08:51] <Madpilot> !info gdesklets
[08:51] <ubotu> gdesklets: (Architecture for desktop applets), section universe/gnome, is optional. Version: 0.35.2-1build1 (breezy), Packaged size: 404 kB, Installed size: 2260 kB
[08:51] <dabaR> Killgore: I'm@work
[08:51] <Madpilot> Ini5, you probably need to enable the Universe/Multiverse repos
[08:51] <dabaR> Killgore: no, you run startx
[08:51] <astx813> I'll mess with that stuff later.  Right now, I'm still dealing with basic functionality.  Next up, I think I'll tackle resume from hibernate
[08:51] <fiendskull9> hello gang
[08:51] <Davey> anybody know the name of that input thingy thats like, you choose a letter with the mouse, and it starts to give you other letters that typically follow it, so you click those and then it gives you the next letter, like squares flowing to the left?
[08:51] <fyrestrtr> Ini5: the info to do that is in the wiki
[08:51] <Ini5> Mad, uh? I'll google for it
[08:51] <Ini5> ok
[08:52] <astx813> (I can hibernate, but when I power up, it just does a fresh boot and ignores the resume)
[08:52] <Madpilot> !tell Ini5 about repos
[08:52] <fiendskull9> If i install LILO (when installing slackware) will it auto detect my ubuntu and windows partitions, and make them availible for boot, when it overwrites the GRUB install?
[08:52] <fiendskull9> !lilo
[08:52] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fiendskull9
[08:52] <nick|here> any commands after sudo won't work! :(
[08:52] <fyrestrtr> fiendskull9: you can only have one bootloader. Its either lilo or grub.
[08:52] <astx813> you might have to add yourself to sudoers
[08:52] <astx813> nick|here,
[08:52] <_little_wolf_> How do I connect to the internet using an ADSL Modem/Router with a DSL account that uses username and password?
[08:52] <fiendskull9> fyrestrtr, but if i install LILO, will it auto detect ubuntu and windows, and make them choosable?
[08:53] <nick|here> astx813: working before.
[08:53] <danf_1979> _little_wolf_,  pppoeconf
[08:53] <fyrestrtr> fiendskull9: I don't know, I haven't messed with LILO since 2000
[08:53] <astx813> nick|here, then it just doesn't like you? :)
[08:53] <dabaR> _little_wolf_: sudo pppoeconf
[08:53] <_little_wolf_> i tried pppoeconf
[08:53] <fyrestrtr> nick|here: add yourself to the 'wheel' group
[08:53] <_little_wolf_> but it says it was not available
[08:53] <nick|here> how to do it?
[08:53] <_little_wolf_> or invalid command
[08:53] <protocol1> jjstiff, you going to host?
[08:54] <Madpilot> nick|here, are you logged in as the system's first user? (the user you created during install?)
[08:54] <nick|here> Madpilot: yes
[08:54] <ue0> _little_wolf_ try to run adsl-setup
[08:54] <ue0> _little_wolf_ then you might run adsl-start
[08:54] <_little_wolf_> may i know the url for doing it?
[08:55] <koobi> i'm a gnome user, what's a good app to use to burn a VCD?
[08:55] <Madpilot> nick|here, and what happens when you try to run Synaptic (System->Admin->Synaptic)?
[08:55] <matthew_w> Well, I've tried everything, and I simply cannot get a resolution higher than 1280x1024 in Xorg.
[08:55] <Britches27> !ssh
[08:55] <ubotu> ssh is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdvancedOpenSSH
[08:55] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: what have you tried? Have you tried manually adding the resolution to the x configuration file?
[08:55] <nick|here> Madpilot, nothing
[08:55] <IamEthos> hey
[08:55] <altos> how can i change splash message show during boot?
[08:56] <IamEthos> I followed the instructions to disable my synaptic touchpad
[08:56] <IamEthos> and it is still functioning normally
[08:56] <IamEthos> wtf?
[08:56] <Killgore> dabaR: ok that works im in blackbox but i cant seem to open any programs ive tried bash and aptitude. Recommend getting a DE?
[08:56] <IamEthos> any ideas?
[08:56] <Madpilot> nick|here, hmm - open a terminal and type "groups" - is there a listing for "admin" there?
[08:56] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr: Playing with the Vert and Horiz, manually adding, reconfiguring xorg ...
[08:56] <fyrestrtr> IamEthos: restarted X?
[08:56] <IamEthos> yep
[08:56] <IamEthos> restarted my entire system
[08:56] <dabaR> Killgore: what do you like to use? I use openbox.
[08:56] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: don't mess with the vert/horiz -- they are pretty much useless on a LCD.
[08:56] <IamEthos> commented out the lines in xorg.conf
[08:56] <IamEthos> was that thing to do?
[08:56] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; Okay, but then, why didn't manually adding them work?
[08:56] <nick|here> madpilot: yes
[08:56] <koobi> can someone please recommend a CD burning app for gnome? one that i can use to burn a VCD
[08:57] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: did you add them at the right place?
[08:57] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: what kind of video card do you have?
[08:57] <dabaR> Killgore: did you install a terminal?
[08:57] <Madpilot> nick|here, try "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" in terminal
[08:57] <Killgore> dabaR: i was under the impression that blackbox was just a Window manager, and i needed something else underneath it to provide more functionality
[08:57] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; nvidia.  But I already have the drivers installed, etc.
[08:57] <Madpilot> nick|here, I'm assuming  you're running Ubuntu/Gnome, btw...
[08:58] <nick|here> Madpilot: sudo won't work.console freezes
[08:58] <nick|here> Madpilot: yes
[08:58] <matthew_w> Under "modes" in my xorg.conf there's 		Modes		"1920x1440" "1856x1392" "1792x1344" "1680x1050" "1600x1200" "1400x1050" "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" , but only 2 of those actually show up, and a bunch of smaller ones I didn't add do as well.
[08:58] <Madpilot> nick|here, freezes? Try Ctrl+C to get in terminal
[08:58] <nick|here> Madpilot: nothing happens
[08:58] <odat> how do i force install something
[08:59] <IamEthos> anybody have any clue where else I might look to disable this damned touch pad?
[08:59] <matthew_w> IamEthos; scoop it out w/ a steak knife.
[08:59] <matthew_w> ;)
[08:59] <dabaR> matthew_w: have you added the proper refresh rates manually to xorg.conf
[08:59] <Madpilot> nick|here, very odd... I'm not sure what else to suggest... (there's always the brute-force "restart the system" option...)
[08:59] <babo> Hi guys, none of my chroot apps can connect to my xserver ... I've dropped acl with xhosts, cp /etc/passwd and /etc/groups ... don't know what to do ???? help ???
[08:59] <Madpilot> odat, generally you don't want to force an install...
[09:00] <na7e-> yay, i'm back
[09:00] <na7e-> goodnight #ubuntu
[09:00] <matthew_w> dabaR; Yes, but that hasn't helped really.  Additionally, fyrestrtr seems to suggest that they're basically useless on an LCD.  I tend to agree with him.  lol.
[09:01] <dabaR> matthew_w: I use an LCD, works fine.
[09:01] <jjstiff> hey, anyone used the pc-to-phone feature of gnomemeeting?
[09:01] <dabaR> matthew_w: you found your monitors refresh rates online?
[09:01] <matthew_w> dabaR; What is the highest resolution you can get
[09:01] <IamEthos> matthew_w: I do that kind of thing
[09:01] <dabaR> matthew_w: the proper one.
[09:01] <IamEthos> and then forget
[09:01] <IamEthos> and hwen I happened to be without my trackball somewhere
[09:01] <IamEthos> I say to myself "Damn!"
[09:02] <matthew_w> dabaR; I can get my monitor's "recommended" one with this, it's just that when I was using windoze I could get it "WAY" higher, which I kind of got used to, more room on screen, etc.
[09:02] <dabaR> ah...
[09:02] <matthew_w> Reccomended= 1280x1024, no problem.  The one I want?  1600x1280/1600x1200.
[09:03] <dabaR> Killgore: your impression is fine, it just needs a little simmering in experience.
[09:03] <matthew_w> dabaR; any ideas :S
[09:04] <IamEthos> alright
[09:04] <IamEthos> I'm off to bed
[09:04] <IamEthos> night everyone
[09:05] <matthew_w> Forcing that to be the only resolution doesn't do it.
[09:05] <dabaR> matthew_w: try other refresh rates.
[09:05] <matthew_w> o_O
[09:05] <dabaR> matthew_w: which will screw you over.
[09:06] <matthew_w> dabaR; huh?
[09:06] <matthew_w> You're going to have to be a bit less vague X_X
[09:06] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: can you switch resolutions using the X hotkeys?
[09:06] <dabaR> you could mess it up, but that is the onlyu idea I have.
[09:07] <protocol1> theres like this thin foam between my airmatress and the flloor....good enough
[09:07] <Killgore> dabaR: id like to thank you for all your help. now that i have blackbox running i think i can take it from here
[09:08] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr: Hrm?
[09:08] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: ctrl+shift+numpad+ and ctrl+shift+numpad- are X hotkeys to change resolutions. Try to see if that works.
[09:09] <dabaR> welcome
[09:11] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr: It does nothing.
[09:11] <Healot> of course...
[09:12] <Healot> if virtual desktop not set...
[09:12] <Madpilot> fyrestrtr, hmm, those keys mess my display up in interesting ways :P (thankfully easy to reset w/ the opposite hotkey, but still interesting...)
[09:13] <fyrestrtr> Madpilot: they just cycle the mode lines in the configuration file.
[09:13] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; lol, then I seem to be completely ignoring the conf file, considering nothing happens X_X
[09:14] <astx813> OK, so my latest mess is the problem with resuming from hibernation.  Hibernate works fine (so far as I can tell?), but powering up again doesn't resume and leaves me with lots of lockfiles to deal with.  Anyone got experience here?
[09:14] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: you might want to read http://wiki.x.org/wiki/FAQVideoModes -- could be you have a messed up configuration file.
[09:14] <astx813> !hibernate
[09:14] <ubotu> astx813: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:14] <Madpilot> fyrestrtr, I guess that aside from 1280x1024 my conf file is a bit messy, then - not that I care, 12x10 is all I run at...
[09:14] <fyrestrtr> astx813: first thing is first, what brand laptop do you have?
[09:14] <astx813> Dell Inspiron
[09:14] <Madpilot> !laptop
[09:14] <ubotu> laptop is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops or http://www.linux-laptop.net/ or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam, or tuxmobil.org
[09:14] <fyrestrtr> what model?
[09:14] <Fujitsu> astx813, which model?
[09:15] <Madpilot> astx813, check the URLs the bot just posted for some info
[09:15] <astx813> 8600.  checking that site now.  I've been through linux-laptops, but most profiles there are outdated and poorly poorly written (at least for my mahine)
[09:16] <astx813> My machine is listed as an all-good.
[09:16] <astx813> no notes or anything
[09:16] <astx813> oh, except the details section...  1 sec
[09:17] <astx813> What is l8ks?
[09:17] <fyrestrtr> astx813: have you read this? http://folk.uio.no/staalep/i8600/
[09:17] <matthew_w> I've restarted X again.
[09:18] <matthew_w> Grr... I can't force it up any higher.
[09:18] <astx813> fyrestrtr,  looks familiar, i'll take a closer look.
[09:18] <altos> how to change image show during boot?
[09:18] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: I haven't had any problems with nvidia and resolutions
[09:19] <Fujitsu> !usplash
[09:19] <ubotu> [usplash]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto
[09:19] <Fujitsu> altos, see above
[09:19] <altos> ok
[09:20] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: pastebin your xorg.conf file
[09:20] <patrick___> how do i view my ntfs partitions
[09:20] <Psi-Jack> Does XFCE4 for Breezy have extreme problems or something?
[09:20] <fyrestrtr> !ntfs
[09:20] <ubotu> I guess ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[09:20] <astx813> fyrestrtr, I'm still reading, but this is one that I kinda blew off.  It's pretty outdated
[09:20] <patrick___> cheers
[09:21] <fyrestrtr> Psi-Jack: lol 'extreme problems'
[09:21] <dabaR> Psi-Jack: ya, Xtreme pRoblems (r)
[09:21] <tonyyarusso> dabaR: Eh?
[09:21] <Psi-Jack> Well, the REASON I ask, is because, when I started it up for the first time, All I got was a rounded corner background image. No menus, no panel, no nothing.
[09:21] <fyrestrtr> Psi-Jack: how did you install it?
[09:21] <dabaR> Psi-Jack: how did you install?
[09:22] <astx813> fyrestrtr, all that doc says about hibernate is "Have not tested it more than the initial ACPI testing. With the highmem module disabled suspend to disk work."
[09:22] <dabaR> :P
[09:22] <tonyyarusso> Any way to do the equivalent of a screenshot on a console?
[09:22] <matthew_w> I pastebined it
[09:22] <matthew_w> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10752
[09:24] <vook> tonyyarusso, eh, well you can send the output of a command to a file using the '>' charactor, or using a terminal in X, you can copy the backlog and paste it to an editor
[09:24] <altos> winkey doesn't work properly. I cannot assing some action to combination Win+L for example... it is recognized as Super_L for any key combinations...
[09:24] <matthew_w> Looking?  I can't find anything wrong X_X
[09:24] <Psi-Jack> dabaR, fyrestrtr: I just installed xfce4. I just now did xubuntu-desktop, heh.
[09:25] <dabaR> :P
[09:25] <sethk> someone was looking for me?
[09:26] <patrick___> any one got the link to the starter manual
[09:26] <astx813> I'm a bit paranoid about installing nvidia display drivers.  Anything simple to do beforehand to make an emerbency rollback easier?
[09:26] <vook> astx813, backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:28] <patrick___> any one got the link to the starter manual for ubuntu
[09:28] <fyrestrtr> patrick___: https://wiki.ubuntu.com
[09:29] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: post your xorg log files
[09:29] <patrick___> thankyou
[09:30] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr: Where would I find them?
[09:30] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: what is your native resolution on your lcd and your dpi?
[09:31] <gps> anyone know why the xorg synaptics touchpad driver would fail to identify the touchpad as a synaptics device when running 2.6.15 when it works fine on 2.6.12?
[09:31] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[09:31] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr: 1280x1024, and DPI?  Not sure.  It's ridiculously high, this is a very expensive monitor.
[09:31] <matthew_w> 8ms refresh, 400:1 contrast, etc.
[09:31] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: your native resolution is 1280x1024?
[09:31] <matthew_w> Ye.
[09:32] <gps> i'd call that a $200 monitor these days fwiw
[09:32] <sethk> gps, it's related to the pci subsystem vendor and subsystem device numbers.  The short answer is that somebody goofed.
[09:32] <fyrestrtr> okay, find the dpi at your native resolution. Just check the OSD of your monitor, it shoudl tell you.
[09:32] <gps> ah ok thanks sethk
[09:32] <gps> at least i know where to start looking ;)
[09:33] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr: Error log posted
[09:33] <astx813> OK, time to drop to shell to test out this nvidia driver.  with any luck, i'll brb
[09:33] <matthew_w> Go for it  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10753
[09:33] <sethrd> Hello again everyone.
[09:33] <Healot> the official nvidia driver?
[09:34] <sethk> gps, you can find the numbers in /sys
[09:34] <sethk> gps, and look for the tables in the device driver.  they are almost always in the first device driver file
[09:34] <Psi-Jack> Well, this is quite upsetting.
[09:35] <matthew_w> Thoughts?
[09:35] <karim> hi folks, can't install mozilla-mplayer, i tried -f install, disk-upgrade no success
[09:35] <karim> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[09:35] <karim>   mozilla-mplayer: Depends: mplayer (>= 1.0-pre5) but it is not installable or
[09:35] <karim>                             mplayer-custom (>= 1.0-pre5) but it is not installable or
[09:35] <karim> any help?
[09:35] <Psi-Jack> I start XFCE from kdm, I get random results. Sometimes, it works. I get menus by right-clicking and middle-clicking the desktop. However, no panel, unless I run it manually. I try to startx after running xfce4_setup, it starts, but dies right back to console just after starting the panel.
[09:36] <sYndax> hello and good morning, may i ask a questioN?
[09:36] <chem199> I have a question about java, can some on here help
[09:37] <vook> just ask - if someone can help they will
[09:37] <matthew_w> What the hell is the "EDID Specified Maximum" ?
[09:37] <sethk> Psi-Jack, why not use gdm?
[09:37] <sethk> Psi-Jack, that's a more common arrangement and so more likely to work properly
[09:37] <Psi-Jack> sethk: For one. I /despise/ Gnome and all it is. I'm not about to use their dm either.
[09:38] <sYndax> i just installed ubuntu on a ide seperate drive, and now would like to add a sata drive that has XP on it... (it was disconnected during the ubuntu install)... how do i update grub to know the already existing XP on the new sata disk?
[09:38] <chem199> i just switched from breezy to dapper, i installed java 1.5 and when i check the version it still says 1.4
[09:38] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: what mode do you want?
[09:38] <matthew_w> 1600x1280 would be great
[09:38] <matthew_w> Anything higher than 1280x1024 that still has 4:3 aspect
[09:38] <chem199> i tried to select the other version and it doesnt list it
[09:38] <Psi-Jack> sethk: However. The problem is /not/ choice of dm, but something else.
[09:39] <sethrd> Weird. I am able to get on IRC, but no web pages will load, and I can't ping anything.
[09:39] <chem199> java doesnt work in firefox, i linked the file and i still get nothing
[09:39] <sethrd> Oh, wait, yes I can. Ubuntuforums.org won't respond though.
[09:39] <sethk> Psi-Jack, I think you are correct about the cause.  my point was only that  somebody would surely have noticed if the problem is occuring with gdm.  You can try xdm also.
[09:39] <Healot> which file did you link and where? chem199 :)
[09:40] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: seems like you haven't setup your monitor correctly, because the driver can only push 1280x1024 as the maximum refresh rate. Read the log file :)
[09:40] <Psi-Jack> sethk: The problem is. It's *not* even working with startx, without ANY dm running.
[09:40] <chem199> Healot: libjavaplugin_oji.so
[09:40] <Healot> to where?
[09:40] <chem199> Healot: the firefox plugin folder
[09:40] <Healot> which is where?
[09:40] <sethk> Psi-Jack, oh, ok, I missed that part, you are correct.  You talked about running it from kdm and I guess I didn't read carefully enough
[09:40] <sYndax> question: i just installed ubuntu on a ide seperate drive, and now would like to add a sata drive that has XP on it... (it was disconnected during the ubuntu install)... how do i update grub to know the already existing XP on the new sata disk?
[09:40] <sethrd> Anyone happen to have a direct link to the automatix.zip?
[09:41] <fiendskull9> hey
[09:41] <fiendskull9> so
[09:41] <chem199> Healot: /usr/lib/firefox/plugin
[09:41] <fiendskull9> Ive wiped the MBR
[09:41] <fiendskull9> how do re-install grub (im using live cd right now)
[09:41] <sethk> Psi-Jack, I would try running startx with strace, see why it is dying.
[09:41] <fyrestrtr> fiendskull9: grub-install
[09:41] <sethrd> Is anyone able to connect to http://ubuntuforums.org ?
[09:41] <tonyyarusso> sYndax: update-grup may very well auto-detect it (the ideal situation)
[09:41] <Trel> sethrd: Looks like its down
[09:41] <DanceCommander> I've been on it all night
[09:42] <fiendskull9> fyrestrtr, its just giving me like a help or manual
[09:42] <sethrd> Bugger
[09:42] <sYndax> tonnyarusso: even if its on a diff hdd? SATA hdd?
[09:42] <Trel> sethrd: I was on it not 10 minutes ago though
[09:42] <Psi-Jack> sethk: You know, to me.. strace is about as useless as rotten eggs. :)
[09:42] <sethk> Psi-Jack, I know that suggestion is a PITA but you don't have a lot of options.  I assume you've alreaady checked the xorg log file
[09:42] <vook> fiendskull9, mount your old root (to /target for example), then chroot /target, then grub-install
[09:42] <fiendskull9> ok
[09:42] <Trel> sethrd: Looks like its just slow. Its responding.
[09:42] <liable> fiendskull9: update-grub /dev/foo..
[09:42] <DanceCommander> yes... it has been slow
[09:42] <sethrd> Trel: I'm getting 100% packet loss in pinging it.
[09:43] <vook> so many ways to skin a penguin
[09:43] <sethrd> Oh, there we go.
[09:43] <fyrestrtr> works here
[09:43] <sethrd> Now it does, yes.
[09:43] <matthew_w> Hrm...
[09:43] <tonyyarusso> sYndax: If it can detect that disc in the first place, I think it will look on it for an OS.  I'm guessing from how well the Install detects stuff like that.
[09:43] <sethrd> Slowly, but it works.
[09:43] <matthew_w> Still not doing it.
[09:43] <altos> trying to install mplayer as written in ubuntu starter's guide - but get 'package not found'
[09:43] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: your refresh rates are wrong in your xorg file. You adjusted it?
[09:43] <fyrestrtr> !repos
[09:43] <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
[09:43] <fyrestrtr> altos ^
[09:44] <sYndax> tonyarruso i disconnected it intentionally, cuz grub had probs installing before... will try now anyhow, thanks :)
[09:44] <fiendskull9> sudo update-grub worked
[09:44] <tonyyarusso> sYndax: Good luck.
[09:44] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: repost your log file
[09:44] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; Yes, but it didn't matter, since it auto adjusted them before, anyway.
[09:44] <matthew_w> It's exactly the same, without the blurb about auto adjusting.
[09:44] <karim> any help on this issue? The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[09:44] <karim>   mozilla-mplayer: Depends: mplayer (>= 1.0-pre5) but it is not installable or
[09:44] <karim>                             mplayer-custom (>= 1.0-pre5) but it is not installable or
[09:44] <sYndax> tonyyarusso: thanks :)
[09:44] <kditty> could anyone help me out with this: when i go to places and network connections, it prompts me for a password to log onto my network, the password i set isnt right, but i can hit cancel and still access my files, but to play the mp3 files i have to copy them from remote computer then paste them to local disk. smb://familypcu/mymusic is where the file is located according to file info
[09:45] <chem199> Healot: any ideas
[09:45] <kditty> places then network servers rather..
[09:45] <Healot> chem199: you're on breezy right?
[09:45] <chem199> no
[09:45] <chem199> dapper
[09:45] <chem199> i made it work in breezy
[09:45] <chem199> i forgot how i did it
[09:45] <matthew_w> One sec.....
[09:46] <Healot> ok, the same "/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins", wrong directory though
[09:46] <joevandyk> Is there a easy way to get all the mp3 and dvd playing functionality of dapper?
[09:46] <chem199> Healot: there is no /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins in dapper
[09:47] <vook> kditty, hmm, you'd probably be better off just mounting the samba share.  i.e. mount -t smbfs -o username=windowsuser //familycpu/mymusic /mnt/mymusicfolder
[09:47] <sethrd> Is there a way to get GNOME 2.14 on Breezy?
[09:47] <matthew_w> K, pasted it again.
[09:47] <sethrd> ....Besides building it from source..
[09:47] <matthew_w> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10754
[09:47] <aeolist> sethrd, apart from downloading from their site? (hypothetical answer)
[09:48] <sethrd> aeolist: Yeah, besides building from source. Would love to mess around with it before I hit the sack in about an hour.
[09:48] <Healot> "ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so" then... see if the links broken?
[09:49] <aeolist> sethrd dunno
[09:49] <matthew_w> I think I see the problem.
[09:49] <altos> fyrestrt: took repositories from url you've given - but still mplayer-386 cannot be found
[09:49] <kditty> it says could not resolve mount point
[09:49] <matthew_w> The NVIDIA Drivers I have for some reason are setting DFP displays to a maximum of 1280x1024.
[09:49] <matthew_w> I have no idea why
[09:49] <chem199> Healot: how do i check?
[09:50] <kditty> vook, sorry forgot to mention your name up there
[09:50] <vook> kditty, did you make a directory for it?  mkdir /mnt/mymusicshare
[09:50] <Healot> nvm, i just give you the answer... you people never read...
[09:50] <chem199> ?
[09:50] <kditty> no
[09:50] <kditty> i will though
[09:50] <chem199> Healot: i have read quite a bit, I am here as a last resort
[09:51] <Healot> "ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so", wth?
[09:51] <chem199> i typed that
[09:51] <chem199> i get nothing
[09:51] <chem199> no error prompt
[09:52] <Healot> "ls -l /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so", wth? you've been faithfull and fooled
[09:52] <Healot> i really typed wrong :)
[09:52] <prudhvi> Hi, i use Ubuntu 64Bit on my Laptop. it is not detecting my Network ( WLAN and LAN )
[09:52] <kditty> vook: so should i do for example... mount -t smbfs -o username=kditty //familycpu/mymusic /mnt/mymusic after i do; mkdir /mnt/mymusic
[09:52] <chem199> Healot: i am confused
[09:52] <Healot> you should be :)
[09:52] <chem199> ok
[09:53] <vook> kditty, yep
[09:53] <Healot> because I typed the wrong command :)
[09:53] <chem199> yea it is good
[09:53] <Healot> "ls -l" - to check to link of a symbolic link
[09:53] <kditty> vook: i get 7396: Connection to familycpu failed
[09:53] <chem199> it is good
[09:54] <chem199> do you want the read out
[09:54] <chem199> "/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so -> /usr/java/jre1.5.0/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so"
[09:54] <vook> kditty, does user "kditty" exist on familycpu?  can you ping familycpu by name?
[09:54] <Healot> btw, which version of breeezy do you use?
[09:54] <kditty> im so confused with the user names etc, i know i have a username on win xp as kditty, i know that familypcu is the name of the network server
[09:54] <chem199> Healot: i am in dapper
[09:54] <Healot> dapper... I mean
[09:54] <chem199> test 5 i think
[09:54] <chem199> the newest one
[09:55] <kditty> vook: on this computer, for some reason it changed to root@familycomputer:/home/kditty# a few days ago
[09:55] <Healot> with Sun's JRE?
[09:55] <liable> !dapper
[09:55] <chem199> yea
[09:55] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[09:55] <kditty> familycomputer is the name and familypcu is the workgroup i believe
[09:55] <Healot> is it a 32bit/64bit release?
[09:55] <chem199> 32 bit
[09:56] <Healot> try to start mozila firefox again, then load a page with Java applet
[09:56] <chem199> i tried that
[09:57] <chem199> Healot: still nothing
[09:57] <kditty> hey vook, i can access my files on that network, i just have to copy them from the winxp and paste them to ubuntu
[09:57] <Healot> chem199: invoke "java", use fullpath
[09:57] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: ah, I think I know your problem.
[09:58] <kditty> so that lets me know that i have some sort of connection, right?
[09:58] <altos> how can i install mplayer if it cannot be found in repositories?
[09:58] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr: Oh?  Do tell...
[09:58] <vook> kditty, ok, what are you trying to do?
[09:58] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: you need a modeline for your resolution, and put the correct refresh rates for your monitor -- don't let it autodetect.
[09:58] <chem199> Usage: gij [OPTION]  ... CLASS [ARGS]  ...
[09:58] <chem199>           to invoke CLASS.main, or
[09:58] <chem199>        gij -jar [OPTION]  ... JARFILE [ARGS]  ...
[09:58] <chem199>           to execute a jar file
[09:58] <chem199> Try `gij --help' for more information.
[09:58] <chem199> sorry
[09:58] <chem199> i assume it works
[09:59] <fyrestrtr> chem199: please, use a pastebin or #flood
[09:59] <Healot> wrong java... the sun' jre java
[09:59] <chem199> i am sorry, i didnt mean to send it
[09:59] <chem199> yea
[09:59] <chem199> just typed java in the directory
[09:59] <Healot> better in full path
[09:59] <chem199> yea
[09:59] <ASTX813> this is messed up.  I'm used to init 3 shutting down gui
[10:00] <Healot> "/usr/java/jre1.5.0/bin/java:
[10:00] <ASTX813> how do I drop out of gnome entirely?
[10:00] <chem199> Healot:
[10:00] <chem199> sorry
[10:00] <chem199> yea that is what i did the second time
[10:00] <kditty> vook: just play my files from my other computer, without having to copy and paste them. is that possible?
[10:01] <chem199> Healot:  "bash: /usr/java/jre1.5.0/bin/java: No such file or directory"
[10:01] <vook> kditty, yeah, type "df" at the command line, it may already be mounted
[10:01] <chem199> but when i entered the directory it worked
[10:01] <kditty> if i want to listen to an album, i have to copy it from familypcu and then paste it to this one
[10:01] <Madpilot> !enter
[10:01] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[10:01] <Healot> chem199: try the other path... up up level
[10:02] <Healot> or somewhere around that...
[10:02] <liable> chem199: tab completion is your friend..
[10:02] <kditty> vook, its not mounted, i get a connection error when i try to mount the folder
[10:02] <Rayen> Hello, I am wondering how it is possible that the Ubuntu kernel boots so fast compared with other Linux distributions ?
[10:02] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: go to http://zaph.com/Modeline/ -- plugin your monitor's configuration and let it calculate the correct modeline for you.
[10:02] <chem199> i am sorry, i am working in two windows, i am getting a little confused.
[10:02] <kditty> 7396: Connection to familycpu failed
[10:03] <Healot> chem199: you should be
[10:03] <chem199> sorry, confused, or both?
[10:04] <ASTX813> This is messed up, I can't get gnome unloaded and I can't install nVidia with R running
[10:04] <ASTX813> X running*
[10:04] <chem199> Healot: when i enter the directory and type ./java it works
[10:04] <ASTX813> I'm used to fedora, init 3 = command line only
[10:04] <Healot> the worst you can do is "sudo updatedb && sudo locate java" ;_) chem199
[10:04] <Healot> which directory, againm chem199 ?
[10:04] <ASTX813> sorry for the enters
[10:04] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; That goes so unbelievably far over my head it's astounding.
[10:04] <frantic> hey guys, remember how i was in here complaining about grub?
[10:04] <frantic> i FIXED IT
[10:05] <DJ_Tobias> how do you make nmap scan 192.168.1.1 - 255 ?
[10:05] <ASTX813> yeah, I was wondering where you went
[10:05] <frantic> the solution was utterly filthy
[10:05] <chem199> Healot:  /usr/java/jre1.5.0_06/
[10:05] <hatake_kakashi> DJ_Tobias: man nmap
[10:05] <ASTX813> what is it, cuz I have to reinstall XP soon :)
[10:05] <frantic> dude
[10:05] <frantic> you need to print this page off
[10:05] <frantic> i'll find it
[10:05] <DJ_Tobias> 192.168.1.0/16 goes from 192.168.0.0-255
[10:05] <ASTX813> that bad, eh?
[10:05] <Healot> how the heck you get "/usr/java/jre1.5.0/plugin/i386/ns7/"?
[10:05] <frantic> it was hard even with the directions
[10:06] <ASTX813> fark
[10:06] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: its really very simple. A modeline goes like this -- ModeLine "something to identify this mode" clock freq. horizontal range vertical range
[10:06] <Madpilot> ASTX813, there's a terminal command to stop X - I'm afraid I can't remember it right now, though...
[10:06] <chem199> Healot: what? no the java is in /usr/java/jre1.5.0_06/bin/java
[10:06] <frantic> http://www.shahidhussain.com/wordpress/index.php?p=33
[10:07] <Healot> and how the heck you link a different "libjava" plugin?
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: sample (don't use this) ModeLine "1600x1200" 65 1600 1024 1200 768
[10:07] <Healot> man, you're confused for sure
[10:07] <frantic> my advice, never install windows after linux
[10:07] <Healot> two different versions of JRE?
[10:07] <matthew_w> fyrestrtr; But there are so many things to fill in there.  Furthermore, once I get a modeline, I have no idea what it is.
[10:08] <ASTX813> oooohm how about /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[10:08] <fyrestrtr> matthew_w: I'll post a sample on pastebin on what it should be, but make sure you edit it.
[10:08] <cmpalmer> ASTX813: <control><alt>F1 will drop you out of gnome
[10:08] <chem199> Healot: no, i linked the libjavaplugin_oji.so to the firefox directory from the /usr/java direectory
[10:08] <cmpalmer> ASTX813: there you go
[10:08] <Rayen> Hello, I am wondering how it is possible that the Ubuntu kernel boots so fast compared with other Linux distributions ?
[10:08] <ASTX813> cmpalmer, but x is still running in that case.  i want x stopped
[10:08] <chem199> it is installed in the right places, it just wont activate
[10:08] <cmpalmer> ASTX813: sudo killall -9 Xorg
[10:09] <Healot> man, you need to figure out which JRE you install and where?
[10:09] <ASTX813> frantic, was that the url fro the grub fix?
[10:09] <cmpalmer> ASTX813: sudo killall -9 gdm
[10:09] <frantic> http://www.shahidhussain.com/wordpress/index.php?p=33
[10:09] <ASTX813> back in a flash
[10:09] <Healot> and state full path of your JRE
[10:09] <frantic> what an awesome mount command
[10:10] <cmpalmer> Rayen: brilliant developers
[10:10] <cmpalmer> :P
[10:10] <Healot> it makes you reach the mount(ains)
[10:10] <chem199> Healot:  "/usr/java/jre1.5.0_06/"
[10:10] <karim> any help? have continuous issue installing mozilla-mplayer
[10:10] <cmpalmer> karim: describe
[10:10] <Healot> the java plugin dir? of you JRE, not Firefox's
[10:10] <chem199> Healot: yea
[10:11] <chem199> that is where sun told me to put it
[10:11] <Healot> how the hell did you get this "/usr/java/jre1.5.0/plugin/" then?
[10:11] <Healot> state the full path of the actual java plugin path, not the symlink
[10:11] <cmpalmer> karim: did you follow the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats ?
[10:12] <chem199> Healot: thanks for the help, i think i am going to work on it in the morning, it is like 3 am here
[10:12] <karim> cmpalmer: let me check
[10:12] <Rayen> cmpalmer : Are the Ubuntu kernels vanilla sources or are they patched by the Ubuntu Kernel Team?
[10:12] <liable> patched to all hell
[10:12] <cmpalmer> +1
[10:15] <Nosgoth> are u guys alive?
[10:15] <fyrestrtr> define 'alive'

[10:17] <fyrestrtr> kadaj: man dpkj

[10:18] <Nosgoth> I F***ed up my ubuntu!
[10:18] <Healot> great
[10:18] <Healot> what else did you rammed?
[10:18] <mike__> hi, im having a bit of trouble with XMMS and possibly some other programs. I cannot move the equalizer and the playlist windows. they are stuck. I was playing with the configuration editor, but i can't seem to find anything that relates back to this. Whats wrong?
[10:18] <Killgore> anyone here use blackbox?
[10:18] <Matthewv> !anyone
[10:18] <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>
[10:18] <Nosgoth> rigth now I m on my LIVE CD
[10:18] <Healot> my bus, Killgore :)
[10:18] <mike__> im using gnome btw
[10:19] <Nosgoth> Healot, can u help me out a lil' bit?
[10:19] <Killgore> i cant open xterm in blackbox
[10:20] <Healot> tell me what exactly the problem, someone will/can help
[10:20] <Nosgoth> I've a Radeon 9200...
[10:21] <cmpalmer> wow. I killed the channel for a whole 3 min.
[10:21] <kadaj> fyrestrtr: if i downloaded frostwire,how can i install it?
[10:21] <Healot> fglrx and xgl related question I guess?
[10:21] <Healot> !fglrx
[10:21] <ubotu> methinks fglrx is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:21] <Nosgoth> I try to set it up with fglrx or some like that...
[10:21] <mwright1night> Is there is a bug with nautilus the default copy action is cp -a meaning that if you have done chmod g+s on a directory, ordinary users can't have the permissions of the group inherited by copying into a group folder or is this a configurable option?
[10:22] <Healot> 9200 doesn't need fglrx
[10:22] <Healot> it's for 9500 and above
[10:22] <Nosgoth> but now my gnome session crashed!!
[10:22] <Nosgoth> everytime i start
[10:22] <Healot> Nosgoth: open a tty terminal
[10:22] <Healot> logon... then "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[10:23] <kadaj> hello,guys.i downloaded python,how can i install it?
[10:23] <Healot> choose the default ati radeon driver... configure monitor/mouse/keyboard, and you're set
[10:23] <mike__> thank you
[10:23] <mike__> i fixed it
[10:23] <Healot> kadaj: from the official python.org site?
[10:24] <Nosgoth> wait, I m latino, my english is not that good
[10:24] <fyrestrtr> kadaj: python is already on the system.
[10:24] <cmpalmer> !es
[10:24] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[10:24] <Healot> neither do mine... I don't speak English
[10:24] <cmpalmer> is there nobody in #ubuntu-es right now?
[10:25] <Nosgoth> THERE IS NOBODY THERE!!
[10:25] <Killgore> lol
[10:25] <kaine> Just wondering if anyone else gets a freeze with the new kernel, if you don't give it a 20 seconds or more from login?
[10:25] <Healot> which new kernel, kaine ?
[10:25] <Frogzoo> kaine: just wondering - ru running gdesklets?
[10:25] <Healot> the latest from kernel.org, or from the repos?
[10:26] <cmpalmer> Nosgoth: relax. you need to reconfigure X...
[10:26] <Nosgoth> Healot, I m afraid I v got to reinstall it all over again...
[10:26] <kaine> Nope, standard install. (frogzoo) from update.
[10:26] <Healot> sure... up to you...
[10:26] <Nosgoth> so how can I extract my docs?
[10:26] <cmpalmer> Nosgoth: after you boot from the HD, <control><alt>F1
[10:26] <Nosgoth> I m on the Live CD
[10:27] <Healot> i just give you the solution that might work, Nosgoth, in anglais :)
[10:27] <cmpalmer> Nosgoth: that will put you at a login prompt
[10:27] <cmpalmer> Nosgoth: log in
[10:27] <Healot> Nosgoth: jsut boot from the disk... ignore the the error though
[10:27] <cmpalmer> Nosgoth: then, issue this command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:28] <cmpalmer> go with whatever the defaults are
[10:28] <Nosgoth> but how can I extract my docs?
[10:29] <cmpalmer> you could email them to yourself
[10:29] <cmpalmer> but do you not want to try to fix it as we just described?
[10:29] <Nosgoth> see, I can send It through gmail, do I?
[10:29] <fly-away> hiall
[10:30] <Nosgoth> Its like 350MB
[10:30] <cmpalmer> Nosgoth: I think you will spend more time doing that if you do it that way than if you fix it the way Healot and I described
[10:30] <cmpalmer> but you can get your docs off with gmail, yes
[10:30] <Shadowwulf> hello, if i have another linux OS on my HD with grub and instal ubuntu ... will it update the grub ?
[10:30] <fly-away> i fount mkinitramfs dont working in my breezy. so, it crash my system after updating kernel to 2.6.15
[10:31] <fyrestrtr> Shadowwulf: most likely
[10:31] <liable> Shadowwulf: yes
[10:31] <fly-away> anybody keep this bug too?
[10:31] <Nosgoth> cmpalmer, thanks, I ll see what can I do.
[10:31] <Nosgoth> U guys gave me an Idea...
[10:31] <Healot> i'm on 2.6.16... no problem
[10:32] <kaine> Mmm, is there anyway to play .wma in rhythmbox?
[10:32] <Jimmey__> kaine, you need w32 codecs for Xine, I think...
[10:32] <Jimmey__> Let me get the link
[10:32] <chrisbudden14> yes, you need to install win32codecs
[10:32] <Jimmey__> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[10:32] <kaine> Ah right awesome, I got it working with mp3.
[10:33] <kaine> So I just do roughly the same again with wma?
[10:33] <Jimmey__> kaine, I use Xfmedia, it's got support for it already...
[10:33] <Jimmey__> I'm pretty sure
[10:34] <Nosgoth> cmpalmer, I just realize somethin'
[10:34] <cmpalmer> yes?
[10:34] <kaine> Ah right, should I just get that then Jimmey?
[10:34] <Jimmey__> It's up to you, really...
[10:34] <Nosgoth> with LIVE cd U can mount a EXT3 partition
[10:35] <Nosgoth> and extract Your docs
[10:35] <kaine> Fair enough, I really haven't got a clue which music player to get. I am new to ubuntu :p
[10:35] <Nosgoth> no matter I u cannot log in
[10:36] <fyrestrtr> kaine: get banshee -- most 'windows-friendly' I have seen. Especially if you like itunes :)
[10:36] <kadaj> totem
[10:36] <Jimmey__> *coughxfmediacough*
[10:36] <Jimmey__> =-P
[10:36] <kaine> Id rather not get any windows friendly gear :p
[10:36] <fyrestrtr> beep is also nice if you are used to winamp
[10:37] <Killgore> xmms
[10:37] <kaine> Yeah
[10:37] <Killgore> is beep the same as BMP
[10:37] <fyrestrtr> well everything is emulating windows on linux. xmms = emulated winamp.
[10:37] <kaine> Ive heard about xmms ;)
[10:37] <fyrestrtr> Killgore: yes.
[10:37] <fyrestrtr> Killgore: BMP = Beep Music Player
[10:38] <kadaj> amarok
[10:38] <Killgore> stupid blackbox!!!
[10:38] <Jimmey__> xf-flippin'-media...
[10:38] <kaine> After installing the codecs, would I need to close rhythmbox and reopen it?
[10:38] <Jimmey__> kaine, probably.
[10:38] <kaine> Ok :)
[10:38] <karim> cmpalmer: did install the w32codecs and i did the apt-get install mozilla-mplayer i get something like The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[10:38] <karim>   mozilla-mplayer: Depends: mplayer (>= 1.0-pre5) but it is not installable or
[10:38] <karim>                             mplayer-custom (>= 1.0-pre5) but it is not installabl
[10:38] <sfar-ubu> fyrestrtr: "Beep Media Player"
[10:39] <kaine> Still not letting me play wma. Its probally because I haven't slept in several days :E
[10:39] <sfar-ubu> bmp has support for wimamp 2.x skins.. so it can look almost exactly like winamp
[10:39] <kaine> probably*
[10:39] <Killgore> go shave that moustache off
[10:39] <Killgore> kaine
[10:40] <kadaj> gnome 2.14 cool
[10:40] <cmpalmer> karim: you did enable the universe and multiverse repositories, yes?
[10:40] <kaine> Killgore?
[10:40] <Killgore> :E
[10:40] <karim> cmpalmer: yep
[10:40] <kaine> :E
[10:40] <Killgore> moustache?
[10:41] <kaine> Lol no
[10:41] <kaine> I like to see it as poking your teeth out :p
[10:41] <kadaj> python and perl.which is better?
[10:41] <Killgore> they are different
[10:41] <cmpalmer> kadaj: yes
[10:41] <cmpalmer> :P
[10:41] <ASTX813> OK, I don't think the video driver installed properly (even though I used synaptic).  How can I pull up video info?
[10:41] <cmpalmer> karim: sudo aptitude install mozilla-mplayer
[10:41] <kadaj> what different?
[10:41] <Rayen> Hi, what kernel version does Dapper have?
[10:42] <cmpalmer> karim: see if that makes a difference
[10:42] <kadaj> Rayen: you use dapper drake?
[10:42] <reflect> kadaj: perl is excellent for certain things.. python is excellent for other things
[10:42] <Killgore> its like all languages
[10:42] <Rayen> kadaj I would like to use Dapper Flight 5
[10:43] <Killgore> python can make games
[10:43] <kadaj> how about C++?
[10:43] <Killgore> hard
[10:43] <protocol1> i'll use dapper when its official
[10:43] <cmpalmer> Rayen: 2.6.15
[10:43] <Killgore> but great
[10:43] <Jimmey__> Rayen: 2.6.15-rc; I think
[10:43] <karim> cmpalmer: different type of error: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[10:43] <karim>   mozilla-mplayer: Depends: mplayer (>= 1.0-pre5) which is a virtual package. or

[10:43] <Rayen> ok thnx
[10:43] <kadaj> protocol1: me too
[10:43] <Killgore> blackbox!
[10:43] <Jimmey__> karim, don't do that.
[10:43] <Killgore> wont open things
[10:43] <cmpalmer> karim: please use a paster

[10:44] <cmpalmer> kadaj: gnutella
[10:44] <Trel> Heh I'm no expert at Ubuntu so I couldn't tell you what version to use.
[10:45] <Killgore> limewire works on linux aparently
[10:45] <gps> he said "good"
[10:45] <Jimmey__> kadaj, nicotine
[10:45] <cmpalmer> kadaj: or you can use torrents
[10:45] <ASTX813> I used synaptic to install nvidia-glx, but it didn't finish the job!
[10:45] <liable> bastard!
[10:45] <ASTX813> That's what I wanted to say!
[10:45] <Killgore> make sure it doesnt get paid
[10:45] <protocol1> I want to try gnutella
[10:45] <karim> cmpalmer: i get : no candidate version found for mplayer
[10:45] <ASTX813> I think I just have to make changes to xorg.conf, but I'm still disappointed.  It's 3:45, I want to sleep!
[10:46] <Killgore> theyre all the same anyway just diff networkds
[10:46] <kaine> Do you have to compile xmms?
[10:46] <liable> ASTX813: sleep, it will be there tommorow
[10:46] <ASTX813> f-dat
[10:46] <Jimmey__> kaine, no
[10:46] <kaine> I should sleep :/
[10:46] <ASTX813> my eyes can stay open, I'll keep trying :)
[10:46] <Jimmey__> kaine, sudo apt-get install xmms

[10:56] <joevandyk> cmpalmer, esd is running
[10:56] <Ini5> does ubuntu have some ipfirewall I should set up, or configure after a fresh install?
[10:56] <kaine> lol :/
[10:56] <Ini5> well, I'm new to this
[10:56] <Killgore> sYndax: yer i had the same problem
[10:56] <Killgore> sYndax: but cant remember how to fix it
[10:56] <[Nige] > anyone know how to disable the system belll
[10:56] <DarkMageZ> Ini5: there is iptables, but there is really no need, due to ubuntu not running any/many services by default
[10:56] <kaine> So am I Ini5, its quite daunting :)
[10:57] <Ini5> kaine, what do you mean?
[10:57] <sYndax> killgore: hmmm... im lost....
[10:57] <cmpalmer> karim: in a new terminal: sudo aptitude
[10:57] <kaine> Linux looks like it has a big learning curve :)
[10:58] <cmpalmer> karim: then use "/"
[10:58] <cmpalmer> that will pop up a search box
[10:58] <Killgore> sYndax: it should recognise it
[10:58] <Killgore> tre
[10:58] <Killgore> try this
[10:58] <cmpalmer> karim: type "mplayer" (without the quotes)
[10:58] <ciro> nobody knows how to mount my cd drive with pmount????????????????'''
[10:58] <Ini5> kaine, and some users that don't speak in clear language
[10:58] <Killgore> sYndax: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /media/SATADrive
[10:58] <drbreen> ciro:
[10:58] <glick> ok so somewhere between pmount 0.9.5-0ubuntu5 and 0.9.5-0ubuntu6 it no longer works correctly on my drives
[10:58] <drbreen> what do you want to accomplish
[10:58] <Mejjem> What shal i do then the startop terminal/os(dont know what it is) says Fatal error: no screens found? when i say "startx" what is the problem?
[10:59] <sYndax> killgore: ok...
[10:59] <kaine> If you mean me, thats because I haven't slept in a bit ;)
[10:59] <drbreen> ciro ?
[10:59] <clayton> ive had a weird month

[11:05] <Killgore> what is the problem
[11:05] <karim> cmpalmer: found mplayerplug-in package. should try that one?
[11:05] <Killgore> that would be a good start
[11:05] <cmpalmer> karim: couldn't hurt
[11:05] <cmpalmer> karim: "+" to add it
[11:05] <fiendskull9> Mejjem, yeah, just take it easy, dont be so RARRRR!
[11:05] <cmpalmer> karim: "g" twice to get it
[11:05] <Killgore> fiendskull9: lol

[11:06] <kartik> i am new to unbutu is there ne thing i need to know bout it???
[11:06] <sYndax> killgore: and via "comuter" it looks as its empty... and has a red X on it...
[11:06] <Healot> hey hey
[11:06] <Jimmey__> kartik, yes
[11:06] <Jimmey__> It ownz.
[11:06] <frantic> not knowing how to spell it may interfere with your ability to search google
[11:06] <sYndax> killgore: also its only 1 of the 2 hdd... i got an additional IDE hdd...
[11:06] <Mejjem> when i turn on the computer it starts op in a terminal like thing.. And then i have to login.. after the login. It shows that terminal: Mejjem@linux:~$?
[11:06] <Jimmey__> startx
[11:07] <Killgore> did you do a server install
[11:07] <Jimmey__> Type that
[11:07] <fyrestrtr> Mejjem: type 'startx' without the quotes
[11:07] <kartik> Jimmey__, i know it owns that the reason i shifted to it
[11:07] <Jimmey__> fyrestrtr, beat you to it ;-)
[11:07] <Killgore> sYndax: hmm im not really sure what the problem is just let me have a look around and ill get back to u
[11:07] <Healot> Mejjem: your ssytem isn;t intelligent enough to tell you what to do?
[11:07] <Jimmey__> kartik, heh..
[11:07] <Mejjem> Fatal server error: no screens found..?
[11:07] <noone> exit
[11:07] <Jimmey__> Mejjem, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[11:07] <fyrestrtr> Mejjem: did you do a server install?
[11:08] <sYndax> killgore: isnt there a way to ubunto to find which drives i have and auto load them?
[11:08] <Mejjem> no i installed a default ubuntu
[11:08] <frantic> yes
[11:08] <frantic> syndax
[11:08] <sYndax> frantic: yes...
[11:08] <Healot> "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[11:08] <Killgore> frantic: where?
[11:08] <frantic> edit fstab
[11:09] <Mejjem> how do i solwe the problem?
[11:09] <Killgore> frantic: i was just about to say no
[11:09] <frantic> add lines like this one: /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    nls=utf8,umask=0222       0       0
[11:09] <Jimmey__> Meejem, as Healot said: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[11:09] <sYndax> frantic: i was wanna see my XP drives cuz i got vidz and stuff there...
[11:09] <Killgore> frantic: there is no way to auto-detect but you can make sure they are loaded every time
[11:09] <frantic> that should be one line
[11:09] <Killgore> that would be good
[11:10] <frantic> they show up on my desktop every time i log in
[11:10] <karim> cmpalmer: same unmet dependencies error: Is the kernel version i'm running unstable?
[11:10] <Killgore> sYndax: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
 can someone throw me a rope here... im lost...
[11:10] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: what are you having problems with?
[11:10] <sYndax> killgore: ok it opened it...
[11:11] <montablac> hi all
[11:11] <Healot> if you have newer card of ATi or nvidia... here we go
[11:11] <Mejjem> " Xserver-xorg is broken or not fully installed?
[11:11] <Healot> !ati
[11:11] <Healot> !nvidia
[11:11] <ubotu> ati is, like, 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
[11:11] <ubotu> well, nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[11:11] <frantic> he's also going to need to create the mount point folders.
[11:11] <montablac> umm
[11:11] <montablac> i think i broke linux
[11:11] <Killgore> sYndax: now add that line into it at the end
[11:11] <fyrestrtr> lol
[11:11] <cmpalmer> karim: you said 2.6.12-10-386, right?
[11:11] <fiendskull9> Healot, you can also use easy ubuntu or automatix to get ati 3d drivers.
[11:11] <Healot> Mejjem: not properly configured
[11:11] <sYndax> i got a NFTS sata drive with XP and an additional IDE drive NTFS i wanna use its content on my ubuntu... but with no damage to the files... perhaps also automated mount or something...
[11:11] <Jimmey__> montablac, lol
[11:11] <frantic> more like linux broke you
[11:11] <Killgore> frantic: ive already told him how to make one
[11:11] <sphinx> can any one tell me how to change my Workgroup ?
[11:11] <Healot> lol~
[11:11] <sphinx> can any one tell me how to change my Workgroup name ?
[11:12] <montablac> yea,if i try to install anything,it removes EVERTHING!
[11:12] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: you can read files without problems, but writing to NTFS is not recommended.
[11:12] <karim> cmpalmer:yep
[11:12] <sYndax> killgore: is there any danger to my data?
[11:12] <cmpalmer> karim: kernel isn't your problem
[11:12] <Killgore> sYndax: only if you start making changes
[11:12] <sYndax> fyrestrtr: i cannot see my hdds on "comuter"
[11:12] <sYndax> killgore: so that line: /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    nls=utf8,umask=0222       0       0 ?
[11:12] <Mejjem> how do i format my disk so i can reinstall linux ubuntu?
[11:13] <Killgore> sYndax: linux can read the data fine
[11:13] <drbreen> fist use fdisk
[11:13] <Killgore> sYndax: yeah
[11:13] <drbreen> and make partitions
[11:13] <sYndax> killgore: that line refers to which hdd? the sata or ide?
[11:13] <cmpalmer> karim: paste your /etc/apt/sources.list to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[11:13] <Killgore> sYndax: but there will be no folder called /media/hda1
[11:13] <Mejjem> how do i make partiotions?
[11:13] <karim> cmpalmer: ok
[11:13] <fiendskull9> Mejjem, Gparted
[11:13] <drbreen> (mejjem) the ubuntu install cd should provide everything you ned for formatting and partitioning
[11:13] <fiendskull9> !tell Mejjem about gparted
[11:14] <carbo> Mejjem: the ubuntu installation cd has a partition manager so you don't need to format beforehand
[11:14] <Killgore> sYndax: the ide
[11:14] <montablac> if (montablacbrokelinux==true){cout<<"HELP ME!!!";}
[11:14] <drbreen> (mejjem) gparted is a partitioning program but as i and carbo saif you wont need it if youre going to install ubuntu again
[11:14] <Mejjem> okay but now i have installed again and again 4 times it ends up the same spot every time?
[11:14] <sYndax> ok, and how do i remove that SATADRIVE thingie without actually kill all the data there?
[11:14] <cyphase> hmm, vector support in X..
[11:15] <drbreen> (mejjem) where does it stop ?
[11:15] <act> is there any known software for ubuntu that allows you to view multiple webcams from different sources that update frequently?
[11:15] <Killgore> sYndax: ***h***da the h refers to the ide, and ***s***da is the SATA. The numbers are the numbers of the partition
[11:15] <sYndax> killgore: ok added.
[11:15] <Mejjem> it just starts up in a terminal? no interface?
[11:15] <Killgore> sYndax: you will have to create the folder as well
[11:15] <sYndax> killgore: should i save and exit?
[11:15] <carbo> Mejjem: during the installation process you should have an option to set up partitions
[11:16] <montablac> read-->if i try to install anything,it removes EVERTHING!
[11:16] <Killgore> sYndax: follow the same procedure, sudo mkdir /media/hda1
[11:16] <montablac> not kidding eather
[11:16] <Mejjem> okay.. ill do it the 5 time then
[11:16] <Killgore> sYndax: then save and exit and restart gnome
[11:16] <frantic> gnome loves my PCR sound card
[11:16] <carbo> Mejjem: I'm not sure if you need to run the 'expert' installation mode, but there is definitely an easy, graphical menu and an option to wipe everything and install ubunut
[11:17] <Killgore> expert installation is really not the way to go
[11:17] <ASTX813> OK, I'm reading up on it and I cannot find a solution.  In my Xorg.0.log, I have "Failed to initialize GLX extension (NVIDIA X driver not found)"  Thoughts?
[11:17] <sYndax> killgore: done, trying now brb.
[11:17] <fyrestrtr> !nvidia
[11:17] <ubotu> from memory, nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[11:17] <fyrestrtr> ASTX813: ^
[11:17] <Mejjem> ok<y
[11:18] <montablac> im going to rate you guys very porely on those "customer feed back cards"
[11:18] <alex123> installing ati drivers can destroy your system !! is that true ??
[11:18] <montablac> ...
[11:18] <montablac> can i have a customer feed back card?
[11:18] <Killgore> alex123: if you do it wrong :P
[11:18] <Healot> gureum,,, guembang chonya gya
[11:18] <Jimmey__> montablac, lol
[11:18] <vdm> \
[11:18] <karim> cmpalmer: just paste it
[11:19] <Jimmey__> What's your problem, again, montablac?
[11:19] <montablac> read-->if i try to install anything,it removes EVERTHING!
[11:19] <Killgore> alex123: try using automatix as it will automate the install
[11:19] <Killgore> montablac: what are u using to install things? apt-get or synaptic
[11:20] <Jimmey__> montablac, does that happen with synaptic, or apt-get, or both
[11:20] <montablac> synaptic,but apt dosent resolve dependaces propaly
[11:20] <Killgore> !ping
[11:20] <ubotu> pong
[11:20] <montablac> even if there installed
[11:20] <sYndax> killgore: thanks, its working...
[11:21] <sYndax> killgore: i think for the data's sake ill leave the SATA main xp hdd out of it...
[11:21] <Killgore> sYndax: now u just have to get the SATA drive
[11:21] <fiendskull9> !tell alex123 about automatix
[11:21] <Killgore> sYndax: y not set up a dual boot system
[11:21] <Killgore> fiendskull9: i should have used that, if i knew how
[11:22] <sYndax> yes, i have a dual boot system... 1 hdd with XP and another with UBUNTU... but grub cannot see the XP dunno why so i manually boot via bios...
[11:22] <Afief> Microsoft has released it's game MechWarrior under a "Shared License" which looks very much like GPL, is anybody going to port it to linux?
[11:22] <fiendskull9> Killgore, used what?
[11:22] <Jimmey__> sYndax, can I please see the output of 'sudo fdisk -l', if you've not already posted it?
[11:22] <Killgore> sYndax: no you have to edit the grub files
[11:22] <alex123> !tell Killgore about automatix
[11:22] <Killgore> sYndax: its pretty easy
[11:22] <talios> !tell talios about automatix
[11:22] <sYndax> jimmey__: its on #flood and thanks :) the ide is mounted, im just afraid to mount the sata so it wont accidently write to it and grable my xp partitions...
[11:22] <alex123> bad automatix
[11:22] <fiendskull9> automatix is the devil
[11:23] <cmpalmer> karim: link?
[11:23] <alex123> :)
[11:23] <sYndax> killgore: ok plz do tell me.
[11:23] <Healot> Shared License isn;t GPL-like
[11:24] <Killgore> sYndax: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:24] <montablac> STILL no customer feed back card
[11:24] <Killgore> stop complaining
[11:24] <sYndax> killgore: ok done.
[11:24] <Killgore> sYndax: linux wont write to the drive unless you tell it to. Thats y its cool
[11:24] <Jimmey__> montablac, it seems like no-ones got the answer at the moment..
[11:24] <Afief> Healot: what's the difference? you have access to the source code and are free to change/redistriburte it
[11:24] <karim> cmpalmer: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d10755
[11:24] <Killgore> sYndax: look in flood
[11:25] <montablac> great
[11:25] <montablac> im an undone question
[11:25] <Healot> MSL doesn't allow that...
[11:25] <Auckland_Pig> is there a way to "always accept" a certificate on firefox... even if its expired?
[11:25] <Healot> Afief: read more of MSL
[11:26] <Zero_Day> just in time for an unanswered question that i have not a clue about.. cool
[11:26] <Healot> yes... when it prompts you to accept certs
[11:27] <Afief> Healot: it's very long, could you give me a hint?
[11:27] <Healot> ok...
[11:27] <Healot> first hint...
[11:27] <cmpalmer> karim: you don't have multiverse enabled
[11:27] <cmpalmer> karim: you need to enable multiverse
[11:27] <Auckland_Pig> Healot: is it about firefox?
[11:28] <Healot> nay, MSL, Microsoft Shared License
[11:28] <Zero_Day> sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:28] <cmpalmer> karim: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto
[11:28] <cmpalmer> it should work after that
[11:28] <Healot> "subject to the restrictions in this license" >> impiled restrictions...
[11:28] <karim> cmpalmer: thanks, sounds silly from me. let me read that
[11:28] <Killgore> sYndax: did u get that
[11:29] <Healot> "You may not use or distribute this Software or any derivative works in any form for commercial purposes"
[11:29] <cmpalmer> karim: no worries
[11:30] <Healot> thus you cannot port/derivate the source other than non-profit activities... which is not really "open" since MS makes money out of many OSS
[11:30] <Afief> Healot: huh? "commercial purpose" i doubt that porting and distributing for free is counted as commercial
[11:31] <Zero_Day> cmpalmer i usually direct them to here http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu kinda ansers most questions in 1
[11:31] <Healot> you must be able to do anything with the original code, to be considered "open"
[11:31] <Healot> like BSD/GPL
[11:31] <drbreen> is selling shared code on cd considered commercial ?
[11:32] <Healot> except GPL derived works must be licensed the same license GPL
[11:32] <Healot> yes... drbreen
[11:32] <drbreen> even if i just take the price it costed me to put it together
[11:32] <drbreen> ?
[11:32] <drbreen> e.g. price for the cd ?
[11:32] <mwright1night> IS there an extension for firefox that acts like the create pdf button in openoffice (or the cutepdf pdf writer in win32)
[11:32] <kditty> does ubuntu have an msn client that supports webcam?
[11:32] <Zero_Day> you can charge for it if u want but the source must be openly available for download also... to cut it short
[11:33] <Afief> Healot: hey, it's a good step for microsoft to open it at all. and who cares if you can do ANYTHING with it as long as we can port/play it on *nix systems?
[11:33] <mwright1night> My users want to press a button or go file print and choose to send the html page they are looking at to output as a pdf
[11:33] <`mrz> Hello folks.
[11:33] <Healot> btw the check wether MSL is categorized as OSS license,,, just goto OSS
[11:33] <ASTX813> Didn't work
[11:33] <`mrz> Where can I find the 'C Header files' ?
[11:33] <Healot> Afief: MS will never do a OSS license
[11:33] <nick|here> best audio player for ubuntu?
[11:33] <lowhat> howdy
[11:33] <ASTX813> nick|here, xmms - quick and simple
[11:33] <`mrz> nick|here, amarok
[11:34] <Zero_Day> nick thats opinion but i also use xmms
[11:34] <alex123> why cant i change my screen resolution
[11:34] <alex123> ??
[11:34] <drbreen> as i know 2 of the 5 license m$ did were considered FOSS licences ?!
[11:34] <drbreen> by OSI ?
[11:34] <karim> cmpalmer: seems i just forgot to paste that line is it not: deb http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[11:34] <Fujitsu> alex123, elaborate.
[11:34] <Afief> Healot: I don't see the point... as long as we can use it according to the linux philosophies(download source/binaries for free, alter code as you want) it should be great
[11:34] <Delicates> can you think of any reasons I might want to create a partition table on a new HD when I want to utilise HD's entire space for a file system?
[11:34] <ASTX813> Anyone here have experience with laptop nvidia drivers?
[11:34] <ASTX813> !nvidia
[11:34] <ubotu> I heard nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[11:34] <karim> cmpalmer: and deb-src http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[11:34] <Healot> yeah... would be great...
[11:35] <drbreen> (afief) the point is that it is not free, so m$ has the only right to make money from it ?
[11:35] <alex123> Fujitsu, the smallest resolution i can use is 1024X800 , why cand i make it smoller ?? do i need to install display drivers ??
[11:35] <lowhat> i'm trying to install breezy on my computer (with 4 SATA HDs and 2 DVDRWs), but after the checking for the cd-rom, the installation stops. when I try to run breezy LIVE it shows me the next message: "hdc: cdrom_pc_intr: The drive appears confused (ireason = 0x01) "
[11:35] <Fujitsu> alex123, a laptop?
[11:35] <Healot> you are entitled to do ANYTHING with a true OSS license like BSD/MIT license, no restriction whatsoever, even doing proprietary code/binary from it :)
[11:36] <alex123> Fujitsu, no , on my PC
[11:36] <Auckland_Pig> when i click "System -> Preferences -> Multimedia Selector" i get an error message "Cannot launch entry" what is that?
[11:36] <Fujitsu> alex123, what is the video card?
[11:36] <Afief> drbreen: and if we decide to publish the deveriation for free? that would still be according to the license, and pretty close to OSS
[11:36] <Healot> http://www.opensource.org/licenses/ >> there isn't any MSL here :)
[11:36] <alex123> ati radeon 9550
[11:36] <nick|here> i have installed vmware at last, and it's working without network.When you enable network it crashes
[11:36] <alex123> fujitsu , ati radeon 9550
[11:36] <Auckland_Pig> Healot: whats the difference b/w MIT and public domain?
[11:37] <Fujitsu> alex123, what resolutions should it support, and is the monitor LCD or CRT?
[11:37] <adiabatic> Auckland_Pig: "if it runs off with your wife, we're not responsible", among other things
[11:37] <Healot> public domain has no copyright notice, while, MIT/BSD releases any liability and retain copyright
[11:37] <Afief> Healot, i'm not argueing that it IS an OSS license, but with some work around we could USE the code they offer us ALMOST like an OSS
[11:37] <Healot> that means the owner can change the license or even patent the software...
[11:38] <ASTX813> which network setup are you using nick|here ?
[11:38] <alex123> Fujitsu, it should go up to 1280X1024 and my monitor is CRT
[11:38] <Healot> Afief: wait until MS launches a new MSL...
[11:38] <nick|here> my pc connected to a lan
[11:38] <Fujitsu> alex123, in a terminal, run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and follow the prompts. You can probably accept everything, but make sure you try monitor autodetection.
[11:38] <Auckland_Pig> oh ok....
[11:39] <Afief> Healot: huh? you mean they could CHANGE the license after they opened it up, thus rendering anyboyd trying to port it for free illeagal?:|
[11:39] <Healot> yes
[11:39] <Auckland_Pig> when i click "System -> Preferences -> Multimedia Selector" i get an error message "Cannot launch entry" what is that?
[11:39] <drbreen> (afief) it is against the spirit of OSS to let m$ restrict me
[11:39] <Healot> but atm, I don;t see any of BSD/MIT licensors do that :)
[11:39] <Fujitsu> Where did you get the multimedia selector, Auckland_Pig?
[11:39] <drbreen> (afief) bsd/mit are not evil :)
[11:39] <Healot> Afief: not the released/licensed code though...
[11:39] <nick|here> ASTX813, my pc connected to a lan
[11:40] <Healot> the one they original author own...
[11:40] <Auckland_Pig> Fujitsu: sorry its Multimedia System Selector....
[11:40] <Auckland_Pig> in System -> Preferences
[11:40] <Healot> the BSD/MIT licensed source will stay that way though...
[11:40] <Fujitsu> Which version of Ubuntu, Auckland_Pig?
[11:40] <Zero_Day> after the license change all sources could technically be restricted , there are a few projects that have did it, but everything up to that point could be used, if i am right
[11:40] <Afief> Healot, drbreen: okay that makes sense for me... m$=Evil again. and i thought they were getting better:(
[11:40] <Auckland_Pig> its 5.10 breezy
[11:41] <Fujitsu> Hmm...
[11:41] <Healot> the author, however, may release his own proprietary code/binary... Afief :)
[11:41] <Fujitsu> I don't know what could cause such an error...
[11:41] <Auckland_Pig> Fujitsu: i'm able to play songs and play dvd... but i'm unable to use more than 1 audio program at a time... :(
[11:41] <Healot> the users, may stick to MIT/BSD or change the licensing if they actually contribute to the original code
[11:42] <Afief> Healot: okay then... any good OSS games out there? because i'm dying to play some games on my linux box
[11:42] <loz14> try daro
[11:42] <Healot> well, CS has a linux version, doom3?  freeciv?
[11:42] <loz14> it's amawing
[11:42] <loz14> amazing
[11:42] <Healot> jsut google for linux games :)
[11:42] <Zero_Day> Fujitsu i ran into that when i installed kubuntu-desktop , had to switch back to gnome as the default or it went crazy
[11:42] <Auckland_Pig> like... if i'm playing music.... i cant hear my VOIP phone ringing....
[11:43] <Killgore> look for games based on the cube engine
[11:43] <Afief> those are impossible to find over here, in fact, it's almost impossible to find an original CD
[11:43] <Killgore> there is a warcraft2 and total annihilation clone
[11:43] <drbreen> (afief) supertux
[11:43] <drbreen> a TA clone ?
[11:43] <drbreen> GIVE IT TO ME
[11:43] <Afief> and freeciv... let's say it reminds me of my first PC back in 1988
[11:43] <sYndax> killgore: wont work... wuts the edit syntax again?
[11:43] <Healot> there are even some proprietary Linux games out there...
[11:44] <Afief> drbreen: got supertux SVN, me also helping a bit with it(at least trying...)
[11:44] <loz14> could anybody tell me how to uninstall listen player, or tell me how i can erase my library, as i've downloaded my library twice, hence, all music is played twice!
[11:44] <Healot> the new FreeCiv is way more exciting, I might say
[11:44] <karim> cmpalmer: seems i have multiuniverse enabled
[11:44] <Killgore> sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:45] <Afief> Healot: new freeCiv? has it made it into the repositoreis yet?(breezy)
[11:45] <Healot> yeah
[11:45] <Killgore> drbreen: ill look for the link
[11:45] <Afief> Healot: the one i downloaded two weeks ago was really unintuitive to play... i couldn't find my way around the game....
[11:46] <aaron_> is anyone familiar with mono ?
[11:46] <Killgore> yep
[11:47] <aaron_> i'm installed it, but how do i start the editor ?
[11:47] <Afief> Healot: hmmm... UFOAI on sourceforge seems nice, anybody tried it?
[11:47] <Fujitsu> What editor?
[11:47] <Killgore> oh
[11:47] <Killgore> are u talking about the game MONO?
[11:47] <aaron_> monodevelop
[11:47] <Killgore> BUNCH OF NEXT-GEN LINUX GAMES ----> http://linuxrevolution.blogspot.com/2006/03/next-gen-linux-game-roundup.html
[11:47] <Healot> http://www.linux.org/apps/all/Entertainment/3D_Games.html >> some list here
[11:47] <Killgore> beat ya :P
[11:47] <aaron_> no
[11:48] <Afief> aaron: Mono is just the framework AFAIK, you need to download the IDE seperately(all AFAIK)
[11:48] <melenkurion> hello :)
[11:48] <aaron_> it comes with an ide
[11:48] <melenkurion> i have problems with flash and fonts :/ anybody can help? tried installing msttcorefonts, but the package seems to be gone
[11:48] <Healot> quake4 also have a Linux version
[11:49] <Killgore> or cedega
[11:49] <Healot> "cli-common" for CLI/Mono packages
[11:49] <vdm> and doom3 too
[11:49] <alex123> Fujitsu , i did evrithing there , do i need to restart ??
[11:49] <Killgore> then u can run pretty much whatever game you want
[11:49] <drbreen> and most popular things like hald life or wow run through wine or cedega
[11:49] <Afief> Healot: as i said... it's pretty much impossible to find original CDs here, not to mention Linux versions
[11:49] <Fujitsu> alex123, logout and login, probably.
[11:49] <melenkurion> hrm no one with advice? :(
[11:49] <alex123> Fujitsu , i hope it works
[11:50] <Fujitsu> melenkurion, you mean a lot of fonts are missing?
[11:50] <Healot> http://www.scorched3d.co.uk/ -- humm just found it... cool, 3D
[11:50] <vdm> i want to run GTA San Andreas in Uuntu. Is anybody runned it?
[11:50] <fiendskull9> !tell fiendskull9 about java
[11:50] <melenkurion> yeah
[11:50] <melenkurion> i have a browsergame which needs flash and there is no text :/
[11:51] <Healot> two choices melenkurion
[11:51] <Killgore> do you have a flash plugin
[11:51] <tes1> hello people
[11:51] <flie> anybody have xorg 7.0?
[11:51] <melenkurion> i have
[11:51] <Healot> 1) get flash player at adobe/macromedia, or get it from ubuntu multiverse/universe repos
[11:51] <flie> what i must write in section mouse
[11:52] <flie> for driver
[11:52] <flie> ?
[11:52] <Healot> device
[11:52] <Healot> Section "Device"
[11:52] <flie> mmmhm
[11:52] <vitriol> ndiswrapper has me ready to rip my hair out....
[11:52] <vitriol> :(
[11:52] <rudiz> wats the function of the Deskbar?
[11:52] <flie> yes, section "InputDevice"
[11:53] <flie> Driver "mouse" dont work
[11:53] <melenkurion> healot, like sudo apt-get install flashplugin-mozilla ?
[11:53] <Afief> Okay, away from gaming, is there a "safe" way to upgrade things like the Kernel, Gnome, Xorg, Firefox and OOo on my breezy system?
[11:53] <Healot> yeah
[11:54] <tes1> My Problem: Where/How can I find all programs/etc that are started automatically
[11:54] <drbreen> apt-get upgrad ?
[11:54] <vitriol> if i do modprobe ndiswrapper, i get [4296185.031000]  ndiswrapper version 1.8 loaded (preempt=yes,smp=yes)
[11:54] <drbreen> upgrade
[11:54] <Healot> apt-get upgrade-dist?
[11:54] <vitriol> but none of the usual info about the wireless card
[11:54] <melenkurion> E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-mozilla
[11:54] <melenkurion>  xD
[11:54] <vitriol> anybody know what might be going on here?
[11:54] <Healot> apt-get dist-upgrade :)
[11:54] <vitriol> ndiswrapper -l shows my driver loaded and hardware is present
[11:54] <melenkurion> Healot, and choice no.2?
[11:54] <vitriol> :/
[11:54] <rudiz> Preferences>Sessions tesl
[11:54] <fiendskull9> How long does the dapper upgrade take?
[11:54] <Afief> Healot: but that would upgrade to Dapper, which is unstable, i'm not looking for a whole dist upgrade, just the new stable programs:)
[11:55] <Healot> 1) get flash player at adobe/macromedia, or get it from ubuntu multiverse/universe repos >> two choices in own line
[11:55] <Healot> Afief: just :upgrade:
[11:55] <fiendskull9> Afief, you need all the dapper updates to run the new programs.
[11:55] <alex123> Fujitsu , i did evrithing there i wrote my video card , my monitor and still i can`t change it
[11:55] <Healot> it's upgrade all the available candidattes of the current dist version
[11:56] <gedoens> My Ubuntu starts up an apache2 server, where can I turn this off?
[11:56] <Fujitsu> alex123, you probably need to restart GDM... Easiest just to reboot.
[11:56] <alex123> i did that
[11:56] <Afief> Healot: so... how safe is it? i love playing with sharp, cutting edge software, but i do need some of the stuff on the system
[11:56] <fiendskull9> ATTENTION
[11:56] <fiendskull9> LIMEWIRE IS NOW OPEN SOURCE!
[11:56] <alex123> Fujitsu , i did that
[11:56] <fiendskull9> lol
[11:56] <Fujitsu> alex123, sounds like your monitor isn't being detected properly.
[11:57] <alex123> Fujitsu , my monitor or my video card ??
[11:58] <Fujitsu> alex123, probably your monitor... I suggest filing a bug against it.
[11:58] <alex123> Fujitsu, what was that command u wrote to me , please type it agen and ill try agen
[11:58] <ubushine> gedoens, install bum and use that to start/stop services
[11:59] <gedoens> apt-get install burn
[11:59] <drbreen> @fiedskull: frostwire anyone ?
[11:59] <sYndax> killgore: i give up, it wont work...
[11:59] <gedoens> i would like to dig deeper and find the configuration files
[11:59] <ubushine> gedoens, bum
[11:59] <sYndax> killgore: hd1 hd2 of sd ...
[11:59] <gedoens> bum
[12:00] <sky_monkey007> hi all :)
[12:00] <sYndax> killgore: anyhow when i run ff the system is like a 100% cpu... which dont even happen on xp...
[12:00] <sky_monkey007> when I'm trying to compile a package from source, I get this error at the end of ./configure :
[12:00] <we2by> isn't the repo for the dapper?
[12:00] <sky_monkey007> Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.
[12:01] <alex123> Fujitsu, please type that command to configuring video card and all that stuff
[12:01] <Rayen> hi, what's the difference between the Linux headers and the Linux source?
[12:01] <sky_monkey007> it's looking for the libs for libbeagle
[12:01] <Fujitsu> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[12:01] <Fujitsu> Rayen, the source is the source, for building the kernel. The headers are just the bits needed for building modules.
[12:01] <sky_monkey007> Rayen: your speaking about kernel-headers, for modules
[12:02] <sYndax> ne1 knows why firefox while running has a very load on the box? 100% cpu usage?
[12:02] <Rayen> OK Thanks :)
[12:02] <sky_monkey007> sYndax: you might experience that if you have alot of tabs open in it...
[12:02] <we2by> how do u add repo for the dapper flight 5?
[12:02] <gfxstyler> hi
[12:02] <sky_monkey007> but typically unless your running some crazy extensions it shouldn't be that high of cpu usage
[12:03] <Afief> If i upgrade to Dapper, would any of the data i've got on the notebook be in danger?
[12:03] <sYndax> nothing open but basic firefox 1 tab...
[12:03] <gfxstyler> is someone here using the module p4-clockmod?
[12:03] <sYndax> sky_monkey007: nothing open but basic firefox 1 tab...
[12:03] <gfxstyler> its powersaving for desktop pentium 4 processors
[12:03] <zeb> what`s server name for ubuntu.pl ?
[12:03] <sky_monkey007> sYndax: what version of firefox do you have?
[12:03] <sYndax> one which came with ubuntu
[12:03] <sky_monkey007> 1.0.7?
[12:04] <intelikey> Afief yes.  dapper is not released yet so if you use it there is a risk as with all alpha/bata software
[12:04] <sYndax> yes i think
[12:04] <sky_monkey007> check apt to see if there's an update.
[12:04] <gfxstyler> intelikey: im using dapper here and its very stable
[12:04] <chemaja> Hey guys, where can i get an IBM Thinkpad R50E AC adapter? I think IBM force you to buy through them. I'm in Australia.
[12:05] <sYndax> ff 1.51 is avail on the mozilla website...
[12:05] <Afief> ingdlikey: i can live with a risk of system crashes and a bit of a program hazzel, but not being able to access my data or it being corrupted, that scares me
[12:05] <intelikey> gfxstyler that's nice.  doesn't remove the risk.
[12:05] <chemaja> (ie. does anyone have one which they're interested in selling?)
[12:05] <sfar-ubu> gfxstyler: but there is still a reason why its not released yet
[12:05] <gfxstyler> i know i know
[12:05] <sfar-ubu> :)
[12:05] <sfar-ubu> i know you know
[12:05] <gfxstyler> :P
[12:05] <Init5> any advice on howto make windows transparent or nifty in 5.10?
[12:06] <gfxstyler> Init5: composite manager, what gfx card do you have?
[12:06] <Init5> uhm gfxstyler I'm not sure rite now
[12:06] <Init5> :)
[12:06] <gfxstyler> o.O
[12:06] <yvette> I need help, ubuntu linux newbie
[12:06] <Init5> hehe
[12:06] <sfar-ubu> !dapper
[12:06] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[12:06] <yvette> i've just installed ubuntu linux
[12:07] <fek> moin
[12:07] <loz14> well done
[12:07] <yvette> my problems is i wanted to add another hard disk
[12:07] <gfxstyler> Init5: its not stable and you need a nvidia gfx card or ati radeon < 9200
[12:07] <sYndax> can ne1 throw me the instructions on how to upgrade the slow as hell version of firefox?
[12:07] <ubushine> yvette, no problem so far
[12:07] <fiendskull9> sudo apt-get upgrade firefox
[12:07] <Init5> gfxstyler, is it more stable with fluxbox, or E?
[12:07] <yvette> the problem is, the system can't find the hard disk
[12:07] <sfar-ubu> ubotu, tell sYndax about firefox1.5
[12:08] <gfxstyler> Init5: it has nothing todo with the desktop environment, its related to the X server
[12:08] <ubushine> yvette, the system can't or you can't?
[12:08] <sfar-ubu> sYndax: you got a pm.. read it :)
[12:08] <yvette> hehehe i think the second 1 is the perfect term
[12:08] <sYndax> sfar-ubu: thanks :))
[12:08] <Init5> gfxstyler, okay, so all these nice looking desktop screenshots around can be considered unstable?
[12:08] <yvette> help please
[12:08] <sky_monkey007> you could use transset for the transparency...
[12:08] <sky_monkey007> I've actually been toying around with Xgl and compiz.  Way cool stuff.
[12:08] <sky_monkey007> the only thing I've got yet to get working on it is the 3d cube
[12:08] <loz14> is it an external hard drive?
[12:09] <loz14> yvette
[12:09] <gfxstyler> Init5: it depends on your computer, on some its very stable (like @ mine) and on some its very unstable and slow
[12:09] <ubushine> yvette, where do you need help?
[12:09] <yvette> nope, internal
[12:09] <intelikey> yvette in a terminal type    sudo fdisk -l
[12:09] <Init5> gfxstyler, ok, tnx
[12:09] <gfxstyler> Init5: but you need to know what gfx card you have :P
[12:09] <zeb> yvette, edit /etc/fstab
[12:09] <yvette> how can i access the othe hd
[12:09] <zeb> have you root ac.
[12:09] <Init5> gfxstyler, is there a command to find that out, I only know how to see it in bios
[12:09] <gedoens> how can i check my configfiles for syntax errors before rebooting?
[12:10] <yvette> ok let me try it
[12:10] <ubushine> gedoens, errors for what?
[12:11] <intelikey> gedoens run them.
[12:11] <gfxstyler> Init5: um... i dont know a command that works for all gfx cards, but you could look at your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to see what driver module is loaded
[12:11] <gedoens> if i run them and there is a bug in e.g. xorg.conf or so i have a problem ;-(
[12:11] <hurax> hi, do you know why i have 3 ports open on a default ubuntu install? one is cupsd which i can remove, but the other are hpiod and python (?)
[12:12] <intelikey> gedoens why is that ?
[12:12] <loz14> can anyone suggest a good media player for me? i use listen, but would like some advice, i'm on a dapper
[12:12] <Init5> gfx, is says driver "sis"
[12:12] <yvette> the system was able to detect /dev/hda1 and /dev hda2
[12:12] <Init5> driver kbd
[12:12] <yvette> however i can't find the 2nd hard disk using file browser
[12:12] <gfxstyler> Init5: then its some kind of onboard card right?
[12:12] <intelikey> yvette did you type in a terminal   sudo fdisk -l    ?
[12:13] <gfxstyler> Init5: i dont know much about that cards, but i guess composite is not working with them
[12:13] <Init5> gfx yes
[12:13] <maihem> hurax, are these open externally or only locally? What users do they run as?
[12:13] <yvette> intelikey, yup it diplayed the attached hadr drives
[12:13] <gfxstyler> Init5: seems you have to wait till xgl is stable to use fancy desktop effects then
[12:13] <Init5> gfxstyler, okay, I'll avoid it than, -I don't like errors
[12:13] <loz14> does anyone use x gl?
[12:13] <gfxstyler> me
[12:13] <intelikey> yvette was the new drive in the list ?
[12:14] <loz14> it's so cool
[12:14] <hurax> er, don't know whether externally or locally, how can i check this?
[12:14] <phrizer> Init5, try 'lspci' in a terminal, it should tell you what cards you have.
[12:14] <loz14> but does not work on my dapper drake
[12:14] <hurax> user is hplib
[12:14] <yvette> intelikey, yup and the system value is extended
[12:14] <Matthewv> loz14, I use banshee for all audio.. its in the universe repos, and I use mozilla-mplayer for web media
[12:14] <gfxstyler> loz14: its still alpha
[12:14] <yvette> intelikey, yup and the system value is "extended"
[12:14] <loz14> and anyone know when the betta version is due?
[12:14] <maihem> hurax: `lsof | grep IPv4`
[12:15] <loz14> thanks Mathewv
[12:15] <gfxstyler> loz14: im sure it takes a while :D but its running stable here though
[12:15] <maihem> eg: cupsd      3574     cupsys    0u     IPv4             367453                 TCP localhost.localdomain:ipp (LISTEN)
[12:15] <phrizer> speaking of graphics cards, has anyone here got 3d accelleration going with an SiS 630/730?
[12:15] <maihem> this is locally
[12:15] <intelikey> yvette plaese show us the one line that describes the partition on the new drive you want to be able to access any time.
[12:15] <Matthewv> loz14, for kubuntu I would try amarok for audio :)
[12:15] <Matthewv> but i think thats default
[12:15] <fab> pourquoi vs parlez anglais
[12:15] <intelikey> yvette it will have something like    /dev/hdc1   on it.
[12:15] <hurax> ok, i have 127.0.0.1:32769 as "local adress", that also means they cannot be reached from outside?
[12:15] <Init5> phrizer, there's much info....
[12:16] <maihem> hurax: for me, all the three you mention are local only
[12:16] <hurax> ok thanks
[12:16] <phrizer> Init5, yeah i've read it, havnt tried it yet though. heh.
[12:16] <phrizer> Init5, on
[12:16] <loz14> Matthewv, thanks for the advice, do i type apt-get banshee in a terminal?
[12:16] <phrizer> Init5, you mean from 'lspci' ?
[12:16] <yvette>  Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
[12:16] <yvette> /dev/hda1   *           1        4677    37567971   83  Linux

[12:16] <Init5> phrizer, yes
[12:16] <hurax> i'm still paranoid from my last windows 2000 install, which has had open vulnerable ports
[12:16] <maihem> hurax, they're also running as nonprivileged users.
[12:16] <Init5> phrizer, 741/741GX/M741 Host (rev 03)    -is that it?
[12:16] <phrizer> Init5, look for something with VGA.
[12:16] <loz14> fab, tu es sur un site anglophone
[12:16] <hurax> and within one minute of being connected i had several virii and spyware

[12:17] <yvette> intelikey, huh?

[12:17] <intelikey> !tell yvette about flood
[12:17] <gfxstyler> Init5: thats it
[12:18] <Init5> so I should be able to use transparency?
[12:18] <yvette> intelikey, it displyed this stuff
[12:18] <Jack-Ho> how can i install gstreamer 0.10

[12:18] <Jack-Ho> on breezy
[12:18] <sYndax> i cant figure out why... even with FF 1.5 i still get 50% cpu load...
[12:18] <maihem> hurax, yeah, Windows is the 5uXoR
[12:18] <yvette> Disk /dev/hda: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes
[12:18] <maihem> s/the/teh/ <- heh
[12:18] <yvette> and this, Disk /dev/hdc: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes
[12:19] <ubushine> yvette, so, /dev/dhc is you new drive, yes?
[12:19] <intelikey> yvette yes that one.
[12:19] <yvette> ubushine, yes
[12:19] <fiendskull9> OMG!
[12:19] <fiendskull9> i just copied this direct off a forum
[12:19] <intelikey> yvette what file system do you want on that disk ?
[12:19] <fiendskull9> get this
[12:19] <fiendskull9> Linspire is the most powerful Linux ever.Try the LiveCD version.
[12:19] <gfxstyler> Init5: i dont know, but you would have to mess in the console for that + you might get some errors - which you dont like
[12:19] <fiendskull9> LMAO
[12:19] <sYndax> i cant figure out why... even with FF 1.5 i still get 50% cpu load... ne1?
[12:20] <loz14> s.o.s, i can't type anything in my terminal, nothing is responding, anybody had this problem?
[12:20] <fiendskull9> sYndax, how many mhz is your cpu?
[12:20] <yvette> ubushine, now my question is, how come i cannot find it in my File Browser?
[12:20] <gfxstyler> sYndax: you tried removing your firefox config?
[12:20] <gedoens> can i stop a service from loading by killing the script under /etc/init.d/ ?
[12:20] <ubushine> yvette, you need to format it first
[12:20] <gedoens> or are they referenced
[12:20] <Init5> gfxstyler, I have made my terminal transparent, and it works just perfect, -but the rest of the windows I'm not sure how to do
[12:20] <yvette> ubushine, i c
[12:20] <Afief> friendskull: I thought linspire was a feature cut down for user friendliness linux... is that true?
[12:20] <gfxstyler> Init5: the terminal uses "faked" transparency :)
[12:20] <intelikey> yvette what file system do you want on that disk ?    it doesn't seem to be formated.
[12:20] <Init5> gfxstyler, lmao  ok
[12:21] <speedo_> g' day everybody
[12:21] <fiendskull9> Afief, linspire is the worst piece of horseshit ever made.
[12:21] <gfxstyler> Init5: the faked transparency also puts on much load on the cpu
[12:21] <yvette> ubushine, i've been using that HD on a windows system
[12:21] <loz14> hello speedo_
[12:21] <sYndax> its an amd64 athlon 3000xp (venice)
[12:21] <yvette> intelikey, i've been using that HD on a windows system
[12:21] <gfxstyler> sYndax: is it just firefox?
[12:21] <sYndax> gfxstyler: i followed the wiki guide on how to install the ff 1.5
[12:21] <ubushine> yvette, so you want to keep it windows?
[12:21] <sYndax> seems so...
[12:21] <gfxstyler> sYndax: maybe you have wrong settings or wrong plugins
[12:22] <Init5> anyway guys, seems we either have the REAL phiber-optic in here, -or just someone living high on a famus persons name..
[12:22] <fiendskull9> Afief, it has no package management, you cant compile, you cant use deb's. its almost the same as windows, it doesnt even have a terminal!
[12:22] <intelikey> !tell yvette about ntfs
[12:22] <yvette> ubushine, no i just wanted to retrieve some files on that HD
[12:22] <gfxstyler> sYndax: thats why you should try removing your configuration
[12:22] <bimberi> gedoens: you can do that, or use 'sudo update-rc.d -f <name> remove' or install 'bum' (boot up manager)
[12:22] <speedo_> i can't read  mpeg and avi files with totem
[12:22] <sYndax> gfxstyler: ?
[12:22] <gfxstyler> sYndax: in your user directory, remove .mozilla or .firefox
[12:22] <Init5> gfxstyler, ok, tnx for the help anyway  ;] 
[12:22] <fiendskull9> !mpeg
[12:22] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fiendskull9
[12:22] <intelikey> yvette read your pm.  go to the link.
[12:22] <fiendskull9> !codecs
[12:22] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories
[12:22] <speedo_> so i downloaded vlc
[12:22] <Jhair> speedo_: totem with gstreamer or totem-xine?
[12:22] <alex123> haw can i change my sound card from 2 channels and make it 6 ??
[12:22] <gfxstyler> Init5: no problem :)
[12:22] <fiendskull9> !tell speedo_ about codecs
[12:23] <speedo_> totem of default in ubuntu didtro
[12:23] <ubushine> yvette, i'll let intelikey keep going here, you might get overwhellmed with info
[12:23] <gfxstyler> speedo_: try installing totem-xine
[12:23] <glick> hey how do i compile a simple qt application
[12:23] <sYndax> gfxstyler: this wont affect my ff 1.5?
[12:23] <glick> it cant seem to find the headers
[12:23] <yvette> ok ubushine thanks
[12:23] <glick> am i missing a package that i need installed?
[12:23] <_jason> ubotu: tell speedo_ about multimedia
[12:23] <gfxstyler> sYndax: you will have to setup the configuration again if you dont like the defaults .. like the default homepage and such stuff
[12:24] <phrizer> Init5, thats probably your graphics card heh.
[12:24] <Jhair> speedo_: I would install totem-xine, mplayer or vlc, the default totem uses gstreamer which is bloated and buggy
[12:24] <gfxstyler> glick: you always need the proper "[libraryname] -dev" package
[12:24] <speedo_> but how i can set this how default multimedia player?
[12:24] <intelikey> no no ubushine you take over, yvette seems to be able to listen to you better anyway.
[12:24] <Jhair> speedo_: totem-xine is there for a reason
[12:24] <speedo_> ah ok
[12:24] <_jason> ubotu: tell speedo_ about defaultapp
[12:24] <intelikey> and i'm busy right now.
[12:25] <neoxan> Look behind you, a three-headed monkey!
[12:25] <caglar_> I use 2 monitors on my workstation with aticonfig "big desktop" function. I only use my 2nd monitor, if I really need it. How do I avoid that some windows get created in my 2nd monitor and not my 1st monitor? I often have to move the windows from monitor 2 into 1 to use them :(
[12:25] <Init5> phrizer, yeah, I need a new box  :] 
[12:25] <ubushine> intelikey, well we'll see how she does.
[12:25] <speedo_> ok guys... god bless you

[12:25] <gedoens> how can i make a shortcut for a terminal
[12:25] <ubushine> yvette, yes of course
[12:26] <gfxstyler> gedoens: what you mean by shortcut? on the desktop?
[12:26] <Init5> phiber-optic, -Mark Abene calls him self Phiber_optik    (try again neophyte)    ;]    sry for off topic!
[12:26] <_jason> gedoens: a shortcut where?  the menu, the panel, or the desktop?
[12:26] <maman> zd
[12:26] <maman> salut
[12:27] <alex123> gedoens, just drag the terminal your desktop
[12:27] <alex123> bah nebune
[12:27] <klausos> how can i put a dell laptop to begin by cd-rom to install ubuntu
[12:27] <alex123> maman , esti roman ??
[12:27] <gfxstyler> anyone noticed that the ubuntu p4-clockmod module only allows little cpu throttling?
[12:27] <sYndax> gfxstyler: i see no .mozilla or .firefox
[12:27] <gfxstyler> with the standard kernel p4-clockmod i can throttle 350-2800 mhz, with the ubuntu p4-clockmod i can only 2100-2800
[12:27] <gfxstyler> thats retarded
[12:28] <yvette> ok thanks to both of you
[12:28] <intelikey> sYndax ls -A   in term
[12:28] <alex123> maman, bah nebune
[12:28] <ubushine> yvette, you have it all sorted out?
[12:28] <gfxstyler> sYndax: not possible, there has to be some configuration in /home/username/.mozilla
[12:29] <klausos> i can I instal ubutu on a dell laptop???
[12:29] <klausos> how??
[12:29] <gfxstyler> klausos: why not? just install it
[12:29] <yvette> ubushine, not really, been trying to read the link that intelikey provided
[12:29] <gfxstyler> klausos: notebook are not that much different from a normal desktop computer
[12:29] <bimberi> klausos: yes, set your bios to boot of cdrom
[12:29] <fyrestrtr> klausos: just like you would anywhere else. Insert the install CD, reboot the PC, boot from the install CD.
[12:29] <ubushine> yvette, well keep reading or ask
[12:30] <Hobbsee> hey, is anyone running networkmanager, with wpasupplicant here?  (presumably on dapper)
[12:30] <bimberi> *off
[12:30] <intelikey> yvette ubuntu may seem frustrating at first, if you are new to linux.  it gets easier as you start to understand how linux works.    when you have questions just ask.  and expect nuts like me to throw you a curve from time to time....  :)
[12:30] <sYndax> gfxstyler: wuts the del cmd? (linux newbie here)...
[12:30] <klausos> gfxstyler, but i don't know how begin with the cr-rom, it just begins with hdd in windows
[12:30] <phrizer> Init5, why a new box?
[12:30] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: rm (remove)
[12:31] <yvette> this is my first time with linux
[12:31] <fiendskull9> intelikey, i agree man, i started using linux 8 months ago, and ubuntu last month, and im already flying around in the terminal and such
[12:31] <Init5> phrizer, I need a lap top, my box is some 6 years old
[12:31] <yvette> frankly i like the system
[12:31] <ubushine> yvette, if you don't mind reading. this on is quick and short to the point on how to mount a new windows drive. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountNtfsOnBoot
[12:31] <gfxstyler> sYndax: open up a terminal and type "rm -r .mozilla/firefox"
[12:31] <bimberi> ubotu: stop me from being cheeky and getting you to tell Hobbsee about anyone
[12:31] <ubotu> I'm sorry, i don't know what you're talking about, bimberi
[12:31] <sYndax> gfxstyler: to dell the dir entirly?
[12:31] <fiendskull9> !play
[12:31] <ubotu> All work and no play. Please don't play with me in the channel; experiment with me in /msg
[12:31] <ubushine> yvette, congrats. you're doing fine
[12:31] <yvette> ok let me try that
[12:31] <gfxstyler> sYndax: yes, just the firefox directory
[12:31] <Hobbsee> bimberi: hehe.  i just need to know if the new version from universe works.
[12:32] <phrizer> Init5, i have systems like 10 years old or more, and going strong.
[12:32] <glick> yay i just wrote and compiled my first qt app
[12:32] <phrizer> Init5, heh heh
[12:32] <glick> nice
[12:32] <sYndax> but i have some plugins and such...
[12:32] <sYndax> gfxstyler: but i have some plugins and such...
[12:32] <fiendskull9> ive been writing some new cpp progs here in linux
[12:32] <fiendskull9> im an avid cpp'er in microslish
[12:32] <gfxstyler> sYndax: if you installed them system-wide, you will still have them
[12:32] <fiendskull9> and lost all my source code for my old programs!
[12:32] <intelikey> cpp ?
[12:32] <fiendskull9> C++
[12:32] <glick> fiendskull9, serves you right for not backing up your stuff!
[12:32] <sYndax> gfxstyler: it says something on a defautl dir... which is write protected...
[12:33] <gfxstyler> sYndax: if not, you will have to backup them first or download them again - but maybe thats the problem, for example some defect plugin which uses 50% cpu
[12:33] <fiendskull9> glick, lol.
[12:33] <Init5> phrizer, yeah my own box here is an old lady, but still can kick most buts  ;] 
[12:33] <bimberi> Hobbsee: :)  -  sorry not i
[12:33] <fiendskull9> glick, i kick myself for not starting a sourceforge for all my stuff
[12:33] <phrizer> Init5, hehe
[12:33] <intelikey> hmmm  in linux cpp != c++   :)
[12:33] <fiendskull9> glick, hehe
[12:33] <sYndax> it was like that even before the plugins...
[12:33] <dedidio> Hi.  Can anyone help me get DVDs playing? I've tried every guide that I've found but just can't get it running.
[12:33] <Init5> phrizer, make that butts!  :] 
[12:33] <glick> fiendskull9, when i worked on a major coding project for school i had two local backups here, 2 copies on my friends computers, and two copeies on the school servers
[12:33] <fiendskull9> glick, always prepared eh?
[12:33] <gedoens> what does firestarter do?
[12:34] <glick> chance favors  the prepared mind

[12:34] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fiendskull9
[12:34] <fiendskull9> !dvd
[12:34] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[12:34] <gfxstyler> dedidio: you need libdvdread, libdvdnav, libdvdplay, libdvdcss2
[12:34] <lachimcar> gedoens: firestarter is a gui frontent to iptables
[12:34] <Init5> guys is there some ubuntu "off topic" channel?
[12:34] <fiendskull9> !tell dedidio about dvd

[12:36] <Init5> he eh
[12:36] <fiendskull9> alex123, i dunno man, i dont think the kernel even supports 6 channel sound cards
[12:36] <dedidio> ah - I was missing libdvdplay - I'll give that a shot

[12:37] <fiendskull9> ahj
[12:37] <Init5> fiendskull9, ok, in that aspect... I give some respect, even    (moving to off topic)
[12:37] <fiendskull9> *agh
[12:37] <gfxstyler> scott_: sudo dpkg -i skype.deb
[12:37] <lachimcar> scott_ : use fedora package
[12:37] <intelikey> fiendskull9 no support for suround sound ?   what you sayin' ?
[12:37] <fiendskull9> lachimcar, thats rpm
[12:37] <gfxstyler> skype has official ubuntu packages
[12:37] <fiendskull9> lachimcar, debian based systems dont run them
[12:37] <lachimcar> scott_: it is described in the ubuntu wiki, look for skypehowto
[12:37] <fiendskull9> lachimcar, just see them as a package to be extracted
[12:37] <Blippe> fiendskull9, alien...
[12:38] <Blippe> !skype
[12:38] <fiendskull9> Blippe, what? im not from mexico :)

[12:38] <Matthewv> scott_, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Skype
[12:38] <lachimcar> friendskull9 deb package for skype is broken , in the wiki is described how to use alien to install it from fedora package
[12:38] <alex123> intelikey , is there soround support on kernel ??
[12:38] <fiendskull9> Matthewv, isnt skype in the ubuntu repos? or is it in the multi and unis
[12:38] <Blippe> fiendskull9, it does create a deb from a rpm or a rpm from a deb... kind of poorly, though, but it often work...
[12:38] <intelikey> alex123 module yes
[12:38] <scott_> Thanks
[12:39] <[cro] smiley> how to enable APM support in kernel?
[12:39] <gfxstyler> [cro] smiley: sudo modprobe apm     maybe
[12:39] <alex123> intelikey can u explain how can i change my sound card from 2 channels to 6 ??
[12:39] <Matthewv> fiendskull9, no.. not in the repos.. or at least not dapper
[12:39] <fiendskull9> !apm
[12:39] <ubotu> fiendskull9: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:39] <Blippe> lachimcar, that is a not a good way of doing it...
[12:39] <Matthewv> fiendskull9, not in breezy either
[12:40] <fiendskull9> Matthewv, ok.
[12:40] <[cro] smiley> gfxstyler, says no such device....
[12:40] <lachimcar> Blippe I have skype installed that way and it works (deb package not)
[12:41] <intelikey> i've got to shed this gui.... they are so restricting.....
[12:41] <intelikey> that's better...

[12:42] <ubotu> zipper|: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:42] <Blippe> lachimcar, cause redhat and debian set up their systems differently using alien might screw up your system, now or when ubuntu gets updated
[12:43] <alex123> intelikey, can u explain how to change to 6 channel on saound card ??
[12:43] <gfxstyler> http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/
[12:43] <gfxstyler> like i said, open up your eyes!
[12:43] <gfxstyler> "Debian Package"<<<
[12:43] <ab0rted> never!
[12:43] <Matthewv> gfxstyler, I've tried using that version of skype before.. it was a nightmare...
[12:43] <ab0rted> err
[12:44] <ab0rted> ;p
[12:44] <dedidio> how can I tell which /dev is my dvd drive? (I want to turn on dma for it)
[12:44] <Blippe> gfxstyler, that package didn't work before because debian was on a lower version fo a package and the deb didn't accept the new ubuntu package
[12:44] <artimo> Being a little rude always helps to clear things up.  :-S
[12:44] <Blippe> gfxstyler, i don't know if debian caught up yet
[12:44] <yvette> inetelikey, how come i got the message "(gedit:8281): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib"
[12:44] <intelikey> alex123 sorry all i have is old isa sc's don't know howto  but there are folks in here all the time setting up sound like that    be patirnt, someone that knows will help you.
[12:45] <gfxstyler> the skype page says the package is also for ubuntu
[12:45] <yvette> when i tried to use sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[12:45] <alex123> intelikey, ok
[12:45] <yvette> ubushine, how come i got the message "(gedit:8281): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib"
[12:45] <Blippe> gfx it did before too, and everyone using ebuntu knew(know) it didn't install
[12:45] <intelikey> yvette what locale to you use ?
[12:45] <Matthewv> gfxstyler i think it worked well on warty or hoary... but because some qt package was replaced in breezy, which skype depends on, it was a lot of trouble trying to install skype.. a LOT of trouble
[12:46] <Blippe> gfxstyler,  it did before too, and everyone using ebuntu knew(know) it didn't install
[12:46] <gfxstyler> i installed it and it worked, but synaptic shows skype as "defect" even when it isnt
[12:46] <Blippe> but as ubotu says, there is a fully functional deb in the ubuntu wiki!
[12:46] <ubushine> yvette, that happens sometimes. try opening gedit useing 'gksudo gedit' no quotes
[12:46] <yvette> intelikey, ahhh, what's a locale?
[12:47] <DanielC> After a recent 'apt-get upgrade' (a few days ago) all my apps have suddenly become very unstable (Firefox, gFTP, Gaim, Thunderbird). The only common element I can think of is libraries (e.g. GTK). Is there a known problem?
[12:47] <intelikey> yvette in a terminal type   locale   it will show your locale settings...   locale is the language and keyboard settings that the system uses
[12:48] <lachimcar> blippe, thx for the warning, generally skype suc*s , they never relase source code (it would be the best) and their binary packages are buggy, but so many people are using skype.....
[12:48] <Blippe> gfxstyler, people dont want defect packages on their system, it screws up updates
[12:48] <intelikey> i only asked 'what locale' because that was the error message and i wanted to make sure it was not some 'un-supported locale'  that was causing it. yvette
[12:49] <gfxstyler> Blippe: i know, but maybe its different in breezy, im using dapper right now
[12:49] <Blippe> lachimcar, just use the deb in the wiki...
[12:49] <yvette> intelikey, it says, LANG=en_PH.UTF-8
[12:49] <rapha> Hi all!
[12:49] <rapha> How do you delete a file that is not there?
[12:49] <alex123> :))
[12:49] <yvette> ubushine, still the same, msg
[12:50] <Matthewv> rapha, ????? a file not there.. why do you want to delete it ? :D
[12:50] <Blippe> dedidio you got help with that dvd?
[12:50] <lachimcar> blippe,  now I know  it, I will give a  try later ;)
[12:50] <intelikey> yvette ok   then if using    gksudo gedit      doesn't solve your problem, then check back and i'll look into it.
[12:50] <Nameeater> how can I move a file on a ftp server into a diff folder on the server?
[12:50] <ubushine> yvette, try gksuexec gedit
[12:50] <rapha> Matthewv: because, it's there. Actually I want to remove the whole folder the file is in. But I always get "Error: file not found" when deleting blahblah.blah" (rough translation from the German message)
[12:51] <Blippe> Matthewv, you sure it's not just a hidden file (a file starting with a "." ?
[12:51] <fyrestrtr> Matthewv: do a ls -la on the directory - it could be its hidden.
[12:51] <dedidio> Blippe - I guessed which drive, think I got it correct as dvd is now smooth :)
[12:51] <Matthewv> rapha, does the file show up with the command 'ls' ?
[12:51] <yvette> using gksudo, it returned an additional msg,  Failed to set label from markup due to error parsing markup: Unknown tag 'markup' on line 1 char 9
[12:51] <Matthewv> sry fyrestrtr u beat me to it
[12:52] <Blippe> Nameeater, most often, you have to be at the ftp-server, or have other ways of accesing it than ftp...
[12:52] <Blippe> dedidio, good
[12:52] <DanielC> Has anyone else had their system suddenly go very unstable?
[12:52] <zivak> hi - i'm having a bit of problem
[12:52] <fyrestrtr> DanielC: when I move it, yes.
[12:53] <DanielC> Has anyone reported a problem with all the GTK apps crashing?
[12:53] <yvette> intelikey, using gksudo, it returned an additional msg,  Failed to set label from markup due to error parsing markup: Unknown tag 'markup' on line 1 char 9
[12:53] <zivak> i just installed ubuntu for the first time and i can't load it because it says "failed to start the x server (your graphical interface)
[12:53] <speedo_> guys i use  firefox
[12:53] <kartik> how to play mps files
[12:53] <artimo> Only when i feed it a microsoft product.
[12:53] <yvette> ubushine, using gksudo, it returned an additional msg,  Failed to set label from markup due to error parsing markup: Unknown tag 'markup' on line 1 char 9
[12:53] <Blippe> DanielC, not without automatix and that was quite a while ago people had those problems
[12:53] <fyrestrtr> !tell kartik about restrictedformats
[12:53] <speedo_> but i can't find where set multimedia player default
[12:54] <DanielC> Blippe: Ubuntu has always been stable, but this last week was horrid. And it happened after an apt-get update.
[12:54] <idefix> VLC is the only DVD-playing-software available, isn't it?
[12:54] <rapha> Matthewv: yes it does. And rm -f'ing it _seems_ to work, but it doesn't disappear. Actually. ls'ing does NOT work because you just get "ls: ImageBlockSiteAdminAontrollerText.class: File or directory not found".
[12:54] <artimo> xine is also very good for DVDs
[12:54] <kartik> how to play mp3 files in ubuntu
[12:54] <Blippe> DanielC, you could try to figure out what happened after a crash with "dmesg"
[12:54] <fyrestrtr> speedo_: sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer and see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestricedFormats
[12:54] <_jason> !mp3
[12:54] <yvette> ubushine, when i tried gksuexec Run Program dialog box appeared
[12:54] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:55] <zivak> does anybody know what to do about my problem?
[12:55] <ubushine> yvette, ya, type in gedit and leave root there.
[12:55] <Blippe> kartik, quite a few people have told you now!
[12:55] <alex123> mah
[12:55] <ubushine> yvette, if that doesn't work time to learn command line and vi.
[12:55] <Blippe> kartik, go to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:56] <Frogzoo> suddenly .php files in firefox don't open - but I get a "open with" dialogue - help!
[12:56] <DanielC> [4466878.228000]  atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e02a <keycode>' to make it known.
[12:56] <DanielC> [4466878.345000]  atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xaa on isa0060/serio0).
[12:56] <Matthewv> rapha, but does the file show up if you just do a "ls -la" without the filename.. to show all files in the folder...
[12:56] <DanielC> That's what dmesg shows (but many times).
[12:56] <_jason> Frogzoo: are you sure it isn't a server problem?
[12:56] <fyrestrtr> Frogzoo: did you update Apache?
[12:56] <Frogzoo> fyrestrtr: nope
[12:56] <fiendskull9> http://img55.imageshack.us/img55/6350/phiber6uu.png
[12:56] <rapha> Matthewv: nope, isn't there then.
[12:56] <fyrestrtr> DanielC: are you using a Microsoft Media Keyboard?
[12:56] <Nameeater> Blippe: that sucks, fundimental flaw, I know you can with windows ftp clients
[12:56] <dedidio> last question for today (I think) - is dvd::rip the best ubuntu equivalent to DVDShrink?
[12:57] <fyrestrtr> Frogzoo: was it ever working?
[12:57] <Matthewv> rapha, so what do you mean by it is there.. where do_does_ the file show up??
[12:57] <DanielC> fyrestrtr: This is a standard keyboard. It does have he "windows key" but that's it.
[12:57] <fyrestrtr> Nameeater: do what?
[12:57] <fiendskull9> DanielC, Gftp does not currently support server to server file moving
[12:57] <Frogzoo> fyrestrtr: installed a few things - 'download at once' (ff extensn) - curl, d4x, think that's about it - yes, was working until last boot (couple hours ago)
[12:57] <Nameeater> move files on an ftp server (from one dir to another)
[12:57] <idefix> !VLC
[12:57] <ubotu> it has been said that vlc is a video/audio player that supports almost everything - See http://www.videolan.org/ for more information (VLC is in the repos)
[12:57] <Blippe> Nameeater, i was referring to setups in the server
[12:57] <rapha> Matthewv: in nautilus, and when using tab completion on the command line it shows up.
[12:57] <Nameeater> oh
[12:57] <Nameeater> I wasnt :)
[12:57] <DanielC> fiendskull9: What do you mean "server to server"? I've been using gFTP for a year on this box and it only started going bad this week.
[12:58] <Nameeater> I just want to wove some files in / to /foo
[12:58] <Nameeater> wove/move
[12:58] <Blippe> Nameeater, which ftp client do you use?
[12:58] <Matthewv> rapha, where was the file from originally??
[12:58] <Frogzoo> Nameeater: files in / will belong to root - 'sudo mv foo /foo/bar
[12:58] <Nameeater> gft didnt do it, and I cant see an option in ncftp
[12:59] <Nameeater> Frogzoo: / is just me trying to show what Im trying to do :)
[12:59] <thegladiator> whats the dapper channel ?
[12:59] <thegladiator> !dapper
[12:59] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[12:59] <Nameeater> #ubuntu+1
[12:59] <thegladiator> thanks
[12:59] <rapha> Matthewv: some old installation of Gallery.
[12:59] <scott_> OK - downloaded fixed version of skype from wiki.ubuntu.com and used sudo dpkg -i skype.deb; however got error message saying could not be configured due to libqt3-mt, lib3c102-mt, and libstdc++5 not being installed. Where do I get and install these? And will it then work?
[12:59] <Nameeater> (IE / could be any folder)
[01:00] <rapha> Matthewv: and it surely wasn't named "...Aontroller..." but "...Controller..."
[01:00] <Matthewv> rapha, can a "sudo rm -rf <filename>" remove it??
[01:00] <Blippe> Nameeater, i just did so in nautilus!
[01:01] <idefix> how do you change the DVD-area code in VLC?
[01:01] <Frogzoo> Nameeater: I only just arrived - what's your real problem?
[01:01] <alex123> how can i setup my sound card ??
[01:01] <Blippe> Nameeater, I moved a file from fftp:/ to ftp:/folder, by dragging!
[01:02] <Nameeater> I will try that but I dont know if that worked well for me last time
[01:02] <Blippe> Frogzoo, he wants to move a file on ftp and claims he got the rights on the server
[01:02] <rapha> Matthewv: nope. It doesn't change anything. It's still not-there-but-somehow-there after that.
[01:02] <Nameeater> yes as I uploaded that file a while ago :P its a proper webhost that I pay for
[01:03] <idefix> alex123, doesn't your motherboard have an integrated sound card?
[01:03] <idefix> mine does
[01:03] <alex123> idefix, yes it does and i need to configure it , or change it on 6 vhannels so i can listen on my soround system
[01:03] <Matthewv> rapha, and running that command on the containing folder doesn't help either i suppose..
[01:04] <zivak> hello?
[01:04] <rapha> Matthewv: true. Because rm works recursively.
[01:04] <artimo> is it alsaconf for soundcards?
[01:04] <ArIeZ> im trying to use my galeon web browser and its having trouble to start anyone know how i can resolve this
[01:04] <rapha> Seems to work... haven't read the sources.
[01:04] <Nameeater> Blippe: oo thanks, Im amazed that ncftp and gftp dont have some sort of support for it
[01:04] <Aisi> Nameeater, not sure, but rename might be the ftp command you need
[01:04] <artimo> !alsaconf
[01:04] <ubotu> methinks alsaconf is Looking for alsaconf? Maybe start here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=118445
[01:05] <bruno> hello
[01:05] <Nameeater> any idea how I would use it Aisi? :)
[01:05] <gedoens> jeah cool
[01:05] <Matthewv> rapha, maybe an issue with permmissions???
[01:05] <bruno> is it possible to set up an adsl connection in a default breezy installation?
[01:05] <Aisi> Nameeater, no, because I haven't got a writable ftp server right now. could set one up in a few minutes though
[01:05] <gedoens> i just got bluetooth to work
[01:06] <rapha> Matthewv: how? I used sudo. Plus, the file not showing up in ls should prove there's something wrong...
[01:06] <ArIeZ> gedoens: which software do you use for bluetooth
[01:06] <bruno> or do i need to install the rp-ppoe package ?
[01:07] <Matthewv> rapha, just guessing here.. :) probly better try someone else.. I can't think of much more...
[01:07] <rapha> Kay, thanks :-)
[01:08] <rapha> Any Gurus around?
[01:08] <rapha> Linus, do you copy?
[01:08] <zivak> i'm having a small problem w/ trying to start ubuntu... any helper? :(
[01:09] <fyrestrtr> rapha: what's the issue?
[01:09] <idefix> alex123, cool you have some very advanced sound blaster there...
[01:10] <thegladiator> zivak, ask away ...
[01:10] <rapha> fyrestrtr: Wanna delete a file that's not there.
[01:10] <gedoens> @arlez:
[01:10] <gedoens> kbluetoothd
[01:10] <gedoens> bluez-utils
[01:10] <rapha> fyrestrtr: Bash's tab completion sees it. But an ls in the directory shows up empty. Trying to rm -f the file says you "File or directory not found".
[01:10] <fyrestrtr> rapha: how do you know its there?
[01:10] <Celestianpower> Are there any free video editing programs for Ubuntu?
[01:10] <rapha> Nautilus also shows it, fyrestrtr
[01:11] <fyrestrtr> rapha: you cannot delete it from Nautilus?
[01:11] <gedoens> is there a way to help with dvd css shit?
[01:11] <fyrestrtr> !dvd
[01:11] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[01:11] <rapha> fyrestrtr: my actual goal is to remove the containing directory. Deleting from nautilus also says no such file or directory.
[01:11] <zivak> thegladiator - i'm having trouble trying to start ubuntu and it's saying that x-server failed to start (your graphical interface)
[01:11] <prudhvi> Hi, i want to include gnome-bluetooth in my Sources.list which url will contail this package?
[01:11] <Aisi> Nameeater, yep. just tested... the rename command is what you want
[01:11] <Afief> Where is the include directory in Ubuntu?
[01:11] <prudhvi> !bluetooth
[01:11] <ubotu> methinks bluetooth is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
[01:11] <fyrestrtr> gedoens: there you go ^
[01:11] <Nameeater> how does it work?
[01:11] <fyrestrtr> rapha: seems the directory information is cached.
[01:12] <fyrestrtr> Open another terminal, login and try again from there.
[01:12] <bruno> anyone knows about adsl connections in ubunty breezy?
[01:12] <alex123> why can`t i change my screen resolution ??
[01:12] <Afief> Where is the include directory in Ubuntu?
[01:12] <artimo> !ppoe
[01:12] <ubotu> artimo: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:12] <Afief> alex123: manually edit your xorg.conf file
[01:12] <thegladiator> looks like ur monitor is causing the  problem
[01:12] <zivak> so what can i do?
[01:12] <fyrestrtr> !adsl
[01:12] <artimo> !adsl
[01:12] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL PPPoE Connection? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE
[01:12] <gedoens> !dvd
[01:12] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[01:12] <Aisi> Nameeater, what ftp client are you using? gftp? ncftp?
[01:12] <zivak> but how? it's brand new laptop... and i just installed ubuntu
[01:12] <Nabiki> .  /usr/include
[01:12] <alex123> Afief, can u explain ??
[01:12] <gedoens> ah i see, this is a bot command
[01:12] <Nameeater> nc
[01:13] <bruno> artimo, is it possible to set up an adsl connection in a default breezy installation?
[01:13] <Nameeater> tho both really
[01:13] <bruno> or do i need to install the rp-ppoe package ?
[01:13] <fyrestrtr> bruno: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE
[01:13] <Afief> alex123: i am not exactly sure about everything, there should be a file in your /etc directory called xorg.conf(or in /etc/xorg)
[01:13] <rapha> fyrestrtr: AFAIK, the Linux  kernel doesn't do any directory "information" caching.
[01:13] <fyrestrtr> rapha: this is not a function of the kernel.
[01:14] <Aisi> Nameeater, say you have file test.test and you want to move it into directory testdirectory, you'd type rename ./test.test ./testdirectory/test.test
[01:14] <Afief> alex123: open it and look for the section where the resolutions are listed. add your desired resolution
[01:14] <fyrestrtr> this is a function of ls and the filesystem.
[01:14] <fyrestrtr> rapha: just open another terminal and try it.
[01:14] <Aisi> I assume you treat directories the same way
[01:14] <Aisi> i'll test that now
[01:14] <Afief> alex123: this happens because xorg can't correctly detect your screen settings... should work better in dapper(using xorg 7 or 9.6)
[01:14] <Afief> *6.9
[01:14] <bruno> thank you fyrestrtr
[01:14] <rapha> fyrestrtr: not even on the console does it work.
[01:15] <gedoens> i dont understand this website:
[01:15] <gedoens> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[01:15] <Aisi> yep. directories (predictably) are treated as filesin ftp
[01:15] <gedoens> shall i put that to my sources list?
[01:15] <fyrestrtr> rapha: pastebin your ls -la output
[01:15] <Nameeater> awsome :)
[01:15] <Nameeater> thanks for that!
[01:15] <Aisi> Nameeater, to move a file or directory up a level, rename ./filename ../filename
[01:15] <_jason> gedoens: yes, but follow the directions
[01:15] <Misnix> rapha, did you  try cd to that directory and run the following?:   rm -i *
[01:15] <ArIeZ> anyone know how i can remove a program from the menu
[01:15] <zivak> xorg can't detect the screen settings? u gota manually configure it, right?
[01:16] <fyrestrtr> zivak: depends on the screen
[01:16] <zivak> it's definitely 1280x768 for its spec
[01:16] <rapha> Misnix: "rm: cannot lstat ...: No such f or d"
[01:16] <_jason> ArIeZ: just the menu?  you don't want to actually remove the program?
[01:16] <fyrestrtr> wow that's a weird resolution. What size monitor is it?
[01:16] <zivak> 14" widescreen laptop
[01:16] <Misnix> hm
[01:17] <fyrestrtr> 14" widescreen?
[01:17] <fyrestrtr> what brand?
[01:17] <dimitri> #civ
[01:17] <ArIeZ> _jason: i have removed the program
[01:17] <zivak> yea HV DV1000T
[01:17] <ArIeZ> but its still in the menu
[01:17] <zivak> *HP
[01:17] <fyrestrtr> nice =)
[01:17] <rapha> Misnix: fyrestrtr: rafb.net/Paste/results/lo8B9E57.html
[01:17] <_jason> ArIeZ: use applications > system tools > applications menu editor, what program was this?
[01:18] <Frogzoo> fyrestrtr: the problem went away of its own accord.... o_O
[01:18] <ArIeZ> _jason: Galeon Web Browser
[01:18] <_jason> ArIeZ: maybe refresh the panel with `killall gnome-panel` first
[01:18] <fyrestrtr> rapha: 404
[01:19] <speedo_> guys .. i tried amsn gaim but they don't work very well.. i'm looking for a msn messenger-like program that can read animoticons

[01:19] <GnarusLeo> speedo_, kopete
[01:19] <Misnix> rapha,  file not found
[01:19] <speedo_> is there some cool soul that can help me?
[01:19] <rapha> fyrestrtr: sorry, http://rafb.net/paste/results/lo8B9E57.html ... had to hand-copy from the other machine.
[01:19] <speedo_> GnarusLeo
[01:19] <GnarusLeo> speedo_, dont know if im a cool soul, but kopete will do the job :
[01:19] <speedo_> i tried it too
[01:19] <Nabiki> Does anyone here know much about libtool, or about creating libraries under Ubuntu?
[01:19] <speedo_> :)
[01:20] <fyrestrtr> rapha: that one is 404 too
[01:20] <gedoens> libdvdcss2_1.2.9-0.0ubuntu0_i386.deb -> what to do with that?
[01:20] <zivak> oye... i'm never gona be able to solve this graphical problem...
[01:20] <ArIeZ> _jason: i was having trouble starting Galeon Web Browser by uninstalling and reinstalling; would that solve the problem?
[01:20] <gedoens> sudo dpkg -i it?
[01:20] <gedoens> !css
[01:20] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, gedoens
[01:20] <_jason> ArIeZ: probably not.  Did you try running it in the terminal and seeing what it said?
[01:20] <fyrestrtr> zivak: first, read the laptop entry in the wiki, then the video entry for your chipset.
[01:20] <rapha> Hmm
[01:20] <prudhvi> !gnome-bluetooth
[01:20] <rapha> Mabye from under recent pastes...

[01:20] <GnarusLeo> !bluetooth
[01:20] <ubotu> well, bluetooth is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
[01:20] <rapha> fyrestrtr: http://rafb.net/paste/results/Io8B9E57.html - does that work?
[01:20] <speedo_> i tried kopete but i doesn't work like msn..in fact it can read animoticona and hasn't other cool tricks like the original
[01:21] <GnarusLeo> speedo_, what is animoticona?
[01:21] <speedo_> animoticons
[01:21] <GnarusLeo> speedo_, oh, then its not true :) It can ... and it has about all the features, what do you miss?
[01:22] <fyrestrtr> rapha: got your paste, but why are you setting the lang variable? what language are you using?
[01:22] <rapha> fyrestrtr: German. I just set it so you could read the messages.
[01:23] <rapha> fyrestrtr: the messages are exactly the same in German.
[01:23] <fyrestrtr> yes okay just wondering.

[01:26] <fyrestrtr> rapha: rm -rf phpunit <-- this does what?
[01:26] <Matthewv> ArIeZ, go to terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal) and type in the name of the program
[01:26] <gedoens> what does the "-r" mean at rm -f -r *
[01:26] <apokryphos> or just alt+f2 -> application
[01:26] <sky_monkey007> has anyone else here who's been using Xgl/compiz notice that video thru Mplayer or Tv tuner cards is all garbled?

[01:26] <fyrestrtr> gedoens: recursive
[01:26] <gedoens> this is clear
[01:26] <GnarusLeo> gedoens, for heavens ... read the man :P
[01:26] <gedoens> but recursive down? up? or what?
[01:26] <apokryphos> gedoens: you can always find out what an option does and/or find available options from the man page.
[01:27] <alex123> Afief , i found the xorj.conf what now ??
[01:27] <_jason> gedoens: down, up would be really bad
[01:27] <alex123> *xorg
[01:27] <apokryphos> gedoens: it means that it deletes the folder x, and all its contents.
[01:27] <Misnix> up would be silly gedoens
[01:27] <gedoens> up would be severe ...
[01:27] <rapha> fyrestrtr: http://rafb.net/paste/results/k1fkYv59.html
[01:27] <gedoens> thats why i ask
[01:27] <emilia> how do i configure a com mouse in drapper drake?
[01:27] <gedoens> how can i efficiently kill my ubuntu?
[01:27] <gedoens> sudo rm -f / ?
[01:28] <gedoens> -r
[01:28] <_jason> gedoens: that would probably do it
[01:28] <rapha> gedoens: yes, you would need -r as well.
[01:28] <rapha> gedoens: but use sudo!
[01:28] <fyrestrtr> rapha: sudo rm -rf phpunit
[01:28] <sky_monkey007> that or dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda :)
[01:28] <fyrestrtr> what filesystem is this? ext3?
[01:28] <Misnix> gedoens, , using fdisk would be more efficient
[01:28] <gedoens> thanks
[01:28] <fyrestrtr> sky_monkey007: /dev/random would be more fun
[01:28] <sky_monkey007> indeed
[01:28] <sky_monkey007> hehehe
[01:29] <rapha> fyrestrtr: that was already suggested by Matthewv: http://rafb.net/paste/results/3RXJHF80.html
[01:29] <sky_monkey007> giving me evil thoughts about what I might do to the next asshole newb who's not nice.
[01:29] <artimo> What command will let me see open network  connections?/
[01:29] <fyrestrtr> rapha: what file system is it?
[01:30] <rapha> fyrestrtr: ReiserFS
[01:30] <fyrestrtr> artimo: netstat -l
[01:30] <rapha> Wait
[01:30] <rapha> Not sure ... lemme check
[01:30] <rapha> fyrestrtr: yes, ReiserFS
[01:31] <rapha> unlink doesn't either work.
[01:31] <gedoens> how can i do: sudo modprobe it87 automatically at startup?
[01:32] <Nabiki> gedoens,  Add it87 to /etc/modules
[01:32] <Misnix> rapha, did you run a fsck?
[01:32] <fyrestrtr> rapha: sudo resierfsck --check /dev/hda2 or whatever it is.
[01:32] <zivak> fyrestrtr - looks like it's working... i picked VESA for driver
[01:32] <zivak> pretty weird
[01:33] <Nabiki> gedoens, sudo nano -w /etc/modules
[01:33] <fyrestrtr> zivak: what video card do you have?
[01:33] <zivak> Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator 950
[01:33] <zivak> 945GM chipset
[01:34] <fyrestrtr> zivak: you getting your native resolution?
[01:34] <rapha> fyrestrtr: running that now.
[01:34] <zivak> i think so... it looks aight
[01:36] <fyrestrtr> zivak: you'll know as soon as you attempt to run a game or something ;)
[01:36] <zivak> hmm... help me test whatever... i'm very new to this linux :P
[01:36] <sYndax> wut is considerd a good divx/xvid player for ubuntu?
[01:36] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: VLC
[01:37] <fyrestrtr> zivak: in a terminal, type glxgears
[01:37] <ArIeZ> i have just runned my galeon web browser from the terminal and got this response INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: JavaPluginFactory5 init - no agent?
[01:37] <zivak> were the gears supposed to rotate smoothly?
[01:37] <sYndax> fyrestrtr: xmms? totem none of thoose:
[01:38] <fyrestrtr> that is a program that tests the graphics acceleration capabilities of your card, what kind of FPS you can get.
[01:38] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: xmms = music player.
[01:38] <zivak> it's moving kinda laggy
[01:38] <rapha> fyrestrtr: Okay, that found stuff. I wants to rebuild the tree, that's gonna take some time.
[01:38] <fyrestrtr> ArIeZ: this is a problem with galeon web browser, so I suggest you ask them.
[01:38] <bruno> bye
[01:39] <sYndax> ok thanks, btw should ubuntu see my cpu details? it says unknown...
[01:39] <fiendskull9> !xorg
[01:39] <ubotu> I heard xorg is To reconfigure your X server, type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" in a terminal, or check here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto or here http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-83973.html

[01:39] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[01:39] <fyrestrtr> rapha: did you recently have a power problem or something?
[01:39] <fyrestrtr> resierfs has been known to corrupt with flaky power.
[01:40] <fyrestrtr> (or on unclean shutdowns)
[01:40] <scott_> Skype query: constant error message saying "error with sound device" - but all stuff is attached.
[01:40] <sYndax> it shows invalid ghz...
[01:40] <sYndax> fyerstrt: it shows invalid ghz...
[01:40] <rapha> fyrestrtr: Not recently, but the hard drive is quite old.
[01:40] <glick> i been running reiserfs for years with no problems, even on the occasional power cuts
[01:40] <GnarusLeo> Hi! I did "cat /proc/cpuinfo" and it says: "model name      : Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.40GHz
[01:40] <GnarusLeo> " ... and a bit under there." cpu MHz         : 598.108
[01:40] <GnarusLeo> " ... that cant be good?
[01:40] <rapha> glick: I'd second that.
[01:40] <GnarusLeo> oh sorry :)
[01:40] <rapha> Actually, I wouldn't let ext3 come near any of my partitions because of the bad experiences it gave me.
[01:40] <fyrestrtr> rapha: hrmm, okay. Might be time to think about a backup. If its IDE, do a smartcheck on it (if its smart enabled).
[01:41] <sYndax> fyrestrtr: i got at 1.8ghz cpu nd it shows 1.ghz... (though it says its an athlon 3000+ and not athlon64)...
[01:41] <fyrestrtr> rapha: make sure you use reiserfs4
[01:41] <rapha> fyrestrtr: will do that. Actually I'm in the process of cleaning up and burning all my data to DVD, otherwise I wouldn't have ever come across this.
[01:41] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: is this a laptop?
[01:41] <gedoens> the stuf in /proc/ is this actual information?
[01:41] <glick> sYndax, with load it varias the clock rate to conserv power
[01:41] <rapha> fyrestrtr: Does Breezy already support Reiser 4?
[01:41] <hexagram> hey guys, what do I need to install to play videos?
[01:41] <hexagram> .mpgs to be specific
[01:41] <sYndax> no, desktop. athlon 64 + abit an8 ultra
[01:41] <fyrestrtr> rapha: not sure, only been using ubuntu for about 5 days :)
[01:42] <sYndax> glick: ah... u mean cool n quiet thingie?
[01:42] <Jhair> isn't reiser4 too buggy for production use?
[01:42] <fyrestrtr> hexagram: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestricedFormats
[01:42] <hexagram> thanks!
[01:42] <rapha> fyrestrtr: what distro have you been using Reiser 4 with?
[01:42] <fyrestrtr> rapha: but I'm a veteran of compiling linux manually (many times) so I am familiar with Linux.
[01:42] <glick> sYndax, to conserve power if cpu utilization all of a suden boosts to 100+ percent the OS will detect it and up the CPU frequency
[01:42] <fyrestrtr> rapha: I'm a long time Gentoo user.

[01:42] <glick> sYndax, it doent need to be running at 4000mhz to chat on irc
[01:42] <zivak> how do i get this wireless working?
[01:42] <sYndax> glick: so the cpu is detected ok?
[01:43] <glick> sYndax, yeah
[01:43] <GnarusLeo> sYndax, you have a pentium M ?

[01:43] <sYndax> gnaruleo: no amd64 :)
[01:43] <GnarusLeo> zivak, try n-applet
[01:43] <GnarusLeo> sYndax .. ok :)
[01:43] <sYndax> glick: btw any way to make the "termina" icon on the taskbar?
[01:43] <GnarusLeo> zivak, nm-applet even
[01:43] <rapha> fyrestrtr: I used to be an LFS junky until Ubuntu came out :-)
[01:43] <glick> sYndax, i think you can right click and select remove
[01:44] <glick> oh you mean to put it on the task bar?
[01:44] <sYndax> glick: i want to add it... and its not among the "selectable": icons...
[01:44] <djk_> rapha: why have you forsaken LFS?
[01:44] <zivak> gnarusleo - command not found
[01:44] <glick> sYndax, drag and dropping it on the task bar should work
[01:44] <GnarusLeo> zivak, "sudo apt-get install nm-applet"
[01:44] <fyrestrtr> Jhair: I've been using it for a long time without problems. Can't beat it for speed.
[01:45] <rapha> djk_: Honest, I couldn't afford the time anymore. My focus has somewhat changed to programming and I searched for something that would "just work", which, well, was Ubuntu.
[01:45] <sYndax> glick: thanks :)  do u happen to know how can i function my mouse buttons?
[01:45] <zivak> gnarusleo: E: Couldn't find the package nm-applet
[01:45] <fyrestrtr> I learned all I ever needed to know about Linux in the first three failed Gentoo compiles. Then, it was just getting used to the packaging system of each different distro.
[01:46] <GnarusLeo> !tell zivak about repos
[01:46] <rapha> http://cdimage.ubuntulinux.com/ gives me something called "Bazaar"???
[01:46] <gedoens> are there any good games for ubuntu?
[01:46] <fyrestrtr> gedoens: Tuxracer baby!
[01:46] <fyrestrtr> can't get any more exciting than that!
[01:46] <GnarusLeo> gedoens, tuxracer :)
[01:46] <rapha> gedoens: Tremulous!
[01:46] <GnarusLeo> gedoens, bzflag
[01:47] <rapha> gedoens: also, autopackage.org has some nice ones.

[01:49] <Matthewv> sfar-ubu, edit /etc/apt/sources.list with "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" and change every instance of "breezy" to "dapper"
[01:49] <epinephrine> "anyone", "what's"
[01:49] <sYndax> djk_: asking the size of the codec pack is consider aol speak?
[01:49] <Matthewv> sfar-ubu, then run "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[01:49] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu, you can use sed as well.
[01:50] <sfar-ubu> Matthewv: thanks..
[01:50] <djk_> sYndax: the way you did, yes.
[01:50] <glick> ok, i think ive backed up everything important
[01:50] <sYndax> glick: thanks anyhow :)
[01:50] <sfar-ubu> chuckyp: okay, to replace breezy with dapper in sources.list?
[01:50] <sYndax> djk_: and wut wont be considerd aol speak?
[01:50] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu, sudo sed -i -e 's/breezy/dapper' /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:50] <djk_> ....
[01:50] <Celestianpower> Are there any free video editing programs for Ubuntu?
[01:50] <sYndax> though ive never even used aol... but what da hell...
[01:50] <epinephrine> why would apt-get install wpasupplicant not install any config files or init scripts?
[01:51] <sfar-ubu> chuckyp: ive been told  "sed -ie 's/breezy/dapper/g' /etc/apt/sources.list"  what does the /g mean ? :)
[01:51] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu, yeah that will work.
[01:51] <sfar-ubu> what does /g do?
[01:51] <Luckys> ubuntu or Debian?
[01:51] <_jason> sfar-ubu: global, it changes every instance of dapper on a line instead of just the first instance
[01:51] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu, man sed will show you all options
[01:51] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu, I forgot the g part is all.
[01:51] <sfar-ubu> ah, :)
[01:52] <Misnix> sfar-ubu, the g stands for global, ie, every instance on a line
[01:52] <chuckyp> sfar-ubu,  Copy/append hold space to pattern space.

[02:00] <kbrooks> What is missing in Ubuntu?
[02:00] <protocol1> yes
[02:00] <kbrooks> ToreoAsesino, it wasnt removed.
[02:00] <ToreoAsesino> yes, I still see the data, but I don't get the option to boot to it
[02:00] <Jimmey__> ToreoAsesino, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst

[02:01] <Jimmey__> Ah
[02:01] <fyrestrtr> twopeak: sudo nano -w /etc/environment
[02:02] <protocol1> ToreoAsesino, I had the same issue with xp not booting.....i would use the install cd to look at the partitions manually and turn the boot flag for windows xp to "ON" then reboot and you should be able to boot from grub of lilo again
[02:02] <fyrestrtr> twopeak: and make sure you restart X after doing anything in it. ctrl+shift+backspace to kill X, then startx to start it again.
[02:02] <protocol1> grub or lilo*
[02:03] <ToreoAsesino> it's bizzare; GRUB detected I had XP fine; everything went swimmingly until the 1st reboot#
[02:03] <Frogzoo> ToreoAsesino: here's how to check: sudo dd if=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1 | od -c
[02:03] <ToreoAsesino> ...then it died
[02:03] <protocol1> same happened to me
[02:04] <ToreoAsesino> Mr frog; I just type that into a terminal?
[02:04] <protocol1> use the ubuntu install cd to look at the paritions manually
[02:04] <dedidio> rapha: can you take a look here and see if that clears up my problem - http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/doc/install.cipp#inst_rar
[02:04] <ToreoAsesino> right
[02:04] <Frogzoo> ToreoAsesino: yup - & you should see "GRUB" or "LILO" in there depending
[02:04] <ToreoAsesino> i'm booting of a SATA drive if that makes a difference
[02:04] <Frogzoo> ToreoAsesino: here's how to check: sudo dd if=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1 | od -c
[02:04] <ToreoAsesino> Linux thinks its SCSI
[02:04] <Frogzoo> ToreoAsesino: true

[02:11] <Frogzoo> ToreoAsesino: do you see grub mentioned in 'the load of shite' ?
[02:11] <GnarusLeo> zivak, have you added addition repos?
[02:11] <dli> can I get a minimum installation liveUSB for ubuntu?
[02:12] <Alexi5> i have a problem getting ubuntu configured on my laptop. it says X cannot identify my display device, so X crashes. I have a laptop with a intel centrino duo processor
[02:12] <zivak> gnarus - yes it's all checked
[02:12] <fyrestrtr> Alexi5: did you read the laptop entry in the wiki?
[02:12] <ToreoAsesino> yes, I typed that command into a terminal, and got a load of random text back
[02:12] <vega__> Alexi5: a more interesting detail (instead of the processor) would perhaps be the brand and model of your display device
[02:12] <fyrestrtr> Alexi5: what brand is it?
[02:13] <Alexi5> intel
[02:13] <GnarusLeo> zivak, do a "sudo apt-get update" and try again .. if it still cant find the package, you have to find the .deb package on net and install that one
[02:13] <fyrestrtr> your graphic chipset is intel?
[02:13] <GnarusLeo> zivak, wich can be done by "sudo dbpk -i <package>.deb"

[02:13] <vega__> "x says it cannot identify my display device, what to do, i have a microsoft mouse" :)
[02:13] <Alexi5> intel 945GM Express
[02:14] <Frogzoo> ToreoAsesino: if you see "G R U B" mentioned there, then that's your boot loader, I think LILO will also have its name in there somewhere
[02:14] <fyrestrtr> Alexi5: did you configure X?
[02:14] <dli> www.debian.org is down?
[02:14] <mwe> Alexi5: X should use the i810 driver for that chip
[02:14] <Alexi5> ubuntu was configuring X
[02:14] <ToreoAsesino> I can see a 'L   I   L   O', I guess that's the one then
[02:15] <fyrestrtr> lol
[02:15] <Matthewv> dli, looks like it...
[02:15] <fyrestrtr> dli: yeah, its down from here too
[02:15] <Frogzoo> ToreoAsesino: we have a winner!
[02:15] <GnarusLeo> zivak, my bad! of course! sorry. "sudo apt-get install network-manager"
[02:16] <uhmmm> angelica ci sei???
[02:16] <zivak> ok
[02:16] <uhmmm> mi sa che ti amo
[02:16] <Alexi5> id did have that driver in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[02:16] <fyrestrtr> !it
[02:16] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[02:16] <ToreoAsesino> woo! So, how do I go about configuring it to boot Windows?
[02:16] <dli> fyrestrtr, Matthewv : do you know whether there's a install disk for USB? like .iso for cd
[02:17] <fyrestrtr> dli: for ubuntu?
[02:17] <dli> fyrestrtr, for any distrobution
[02:17] <Matthewv> dli, you mean to run ubuntu off a usb disk, or to install from a usb disk to hard drive
[02:17] <dli> fyrestrtr, I prefer debian, ubuntu, gentoo
[02:17] <dli> Matthewv, this old box refuses to boot off cd, could be mobo problem
[02:18] <Matthewv> dli, and you want to install off a usb disk to hdd... hang on i think theres a wiki page for that
[02:18] <dli> Matthewv, it supports USB booting, I have a 128MB memory stick :(
[02:18] <fyrestrtr> dli: sure, there are plenty. Gentoo is @ http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Gentoo_LiveCD_and_LiveUSB
[02:19] <Matthewv> dli, maybe you want some sort of network install... if you want a live usb there is a howto in the forums
[02:19] <fyrestrtr> Matthewv: minimal cd is 123 MB for gentoo, iirc.
[02:19] <fyrestrtr> dli: get a 2 GB USB disk =)
[02:19] <dli> Matthewv, network is fine, but it got to boot off something
[02:19] <Alexi5> mwe:  id did have that driver in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[02:19] <Matthewv> dri, yeah.. i follow
[02:19] <zivak> gnarusleo- i typed nm-applet and cursor's just blinking
[02:20] <dli> fyrestrtr, :)
[02:20] <fyrestrtr> dli: for gentoo, you can do a boot from a floppy and then do a network isntall.
[02:20] <GnarusLeo> zivak, check for conf in "nm-applet --help" your using breezy with gnome right?
[02:20] <zivak> gnarus, yes
[02:21] <zivak> what's the kill command?
[02:21] <dli> fyrestrtr, can you? you need the basic tool chain to start (like those on livecd minimum)
[02:21] <GnarusLeo> zivak, kill -9
[02:21] <Matthewv> dli, there is a howto on the wiki :) but it needs a 700MB stick :( ie it does the whole install from stick
[02:21] <GnarusLeo> zivak, do a "ps aux | grep nm-applet" to see if anythings running
[02:22] <fyrestrtr> dli: see http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/altinstall.xml -- and please, #gentoo for gentoo related questions.
[02:22] <dli> Matthewv, okay, let me see whether I can build a minimum liveusb
[02:22] <sYndax> after installing vlc and w32 codecs... i get no sound on divx files... am i doing something wrong?
[02:22] <viorell> good day at all!
[02:22] <dli> fyrestrtr, thanks :) if ubuntu has such minimum usb, I want to try it over gentoo
[02:22] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: speakers plugged in and turned on?
[02:22] <viorell> anyone here speaks spanish?
[02:22] <viorell> thanks
[02:23] <ToreoAsesino> guys; anyone know if there's a default password for 'root'? I can't seem to remeber setting one up
[02:23] <fyrestrtr> dli: I have only been using ubuntu for about 5 days, so don't know. Gentoo -- yeah, I know quite a bit about that =)
[02:23] <fyrestrtr> viorell: !es
[02:23] <nickrud> !es
[02:23] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[02:23] <zivak> gnarus- i'm seeing something but how do i tell if it's running or not
[02:23] <fyrestrtr> ToreoAsesino: root account is disabled by default, use sudo
[02:23] <fyrestrtr> !sudo
[02:23] <ubotu> somebody said sudo was a command that will let users run commands as root. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[02:23] <sYndax> fyerstrtr: lol... yes... :)
[02:23] <GnarusLeo> zivak, if its there its running ... just kill the pid or do "sudo killall nm-applet" ..
[02:24] <zivak> done
[02:24] <GnarusLeo> zivak, ok, try start the program again ...
[02:24] <Kezzer> Is an SQL server present as default in Ubuntu?
[02:24] <sYndax> fyerstrtr: is there a gspot proggy for ubuntu?
[02:24] <Kezzer> or PHP?
[02:25] <GnarusLeo> zivak, it should add a icon on you gnome toolbar (at the upper right corner usually)
[02:25] <nickrud> Kezzer, neither
[02:25] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: gspot? sounds kinky.
[02:25] <Kezzer> ah, I was sure I saw some kind of software related to both on my updates list
[02:25] <fyrestrtr> Kezzer: no and no.
[02:25] <sYndax> fyerstrtr: lol... its  a proggy that scans avi and says wut codecs are needed...
[02:25] <ToreoAsesino> bollucks. I need to edit a lilo.conf file in the etc folder. Can't do it!
[02:25] <Kezzer> ok, ta
[02:25] <nickrud> Kezzer, sure, they're available
[02:25] <zivak> u mean the wired connection icon?
[02:25] <Matthewv> dli, maybe this http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/main/installer-i386/current/doc/manual/en/ch04s03.html and this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/Netboot?action=show&redirect=NetbootInstall may help
[02:25] <Kezzer> also, are there any decent text editors for HTML/CSS/PHP development?
[02:25] <GnarusLeo> zivak, exacly ....
[02:25] <zivak> oh but i want wireless
[02:26] <viorell> how can i entry in spanish channel of ubuntu??
[02:26] <GnarusLeo> zivak, then right-click and do your magic :)
[02:26] <fyrestrtr> sYndax: mplayer will give you that information if you launch it from console.
[02:26] <Kezzer> basically needs to be simple, syntax highlighting, automatic indentation etc.
[02:26] <fyrestrtr> viorell: type /join #ubuntu-es
[02:26] <gnomefreak> viorell: type /join #ubuntu-es
[02:26] <nickrud> Kezzer, some people swear by bluefish, others by emacs or whatever
[02:26] <zivak> gnarus - oooooh i see!!! thanks!!!!
[02:26] <artimo> #ubuntu-es    /join #ubuntu-es
[02:26] <GnarusLeo> zivak, np :)
[02:26] <fyrestrtr> Kezzer: Dreamweaver clone = sudo apt-get install nvu
[02:26] <gnomefreak> i use bluefish for my HTML neeeds ;)
[02:26] <Kezzer> I'll check it out before I download it, I'll check out bluefish and nvu
[02:26] <fyrestrtr> I use bluefish for my sushi needs
[02:26] <nickrud> my extremely simple needs :)
[02:27] <GnarusLeo> I have allways been an emacs fan .. :)
[02:27] <gnomefreak> nvu is also nice :)
[02:27] <m1an1ak> hmm, seems i made a big mistake buying a satellite A70, i just read the forum on it and it seems that it does not like to work to well, not to mention all the other things the A70 doesnt do well,
[02:27] <fyrestrtr> m1an1ak: general rule -- don't buy laptops from companies that make their money making TVs.
[02:27] <zivak> gnarus - how do i manually type in wireless setting such as SSID and encryption key?
[02:27] <m1an1ak> lol
[02:27] <sYndax> fyerstrtr: thanks.
[02:27] <nickrud> no sonys?
[02:28] <fyrestrtr> sonys -- great to look at, not much fun to configure linux on.
[02:28] <fyrestrtr> their TVs are awesome =)
[02:28] <artimo> lol
[02:28] <fyrestrtr> m1an1ak: any specific issue?
[02:28] <m1an1ak> not yet, i just read the forum, i havent installed it yet
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> ah well, keep you head up!
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> if its new, you could have ... you know ... an ... "accident" ... and turn it in.
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> like test it gravitational impact resistance factor.
[02:29] <ToreoAsesino> well guys, i'm going to have a hack at getting back into my beloved Windows XP! Life is comfortable there, but i'll be back
[02:29] <ToreoAsesino> thanks for your help
[02:30] <gnomefreak> just return it and say its the wrong kind
[02:30] <m1an1ak> i use it for my busines, recordign studio, it runnign xp with no networking enabled for security reason, i wanted to partition the h/d and install linux onto it, so i could use it on the net.
[02:30] <diavoloS> need help
[02:30] <gnomefreak> diavoloS: can you tell us a little more?
[02:30] <Matthewv> diavoloS, what help... ?
[02:30] <diavoloS> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[02:30] <m1an1ak> its too old to take back now, almost a year
[02:30] <fyrestrtr> diavoloS: dial 911
[02:30] <diavoloS> :D
[02:30] <Matthewv> diavoloS, and what happens when you run dpkg --configure -a
[02:30] <roccociro_> #ubuntu-it
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> m1an1ak: surprise you don't use a powerbook.
[02:31] <gnomefreak> diavoloS: without knowing what you are doing i would run the command
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> m1an1ak: most music studios use those.
[02:31] <m1an1ak> fyrestrtr: it was a cost issue
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> ah yeah, usually is.
[02:31] <m1an1ak> then mac gone and used th eintel chip :(
[02:31] <diavoloS> virus@home:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a

[02:32] <carbo> is there a program that will tag all my music using Music Brainz?
[02:32] <DJAdmiral> hi, er, totally noob question, but, how the hell do i burn iso files? lol
[02:32] <Matthewv> diavoloS, just what is the error?
[02:32] <_jason> !burniso
[02:32] <ubotu> For help burning the Ubuntu ISO to CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[02:32] <gnomefreak> ~!iso
[02:33] <gnomefreak> !iso
[02:33] <ubotu> iso is, like, download Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ and for help burning the CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[02:33] <Matthewv> DJAdmiral, right-click on the file and select burn image..
[02:33] <DJAdmiral> thanks Matthewv
[02:33] <DJAdmiral> that's what i was looking for, not the ubuntu iso :P
[02:33] <diavoloS> when i try to make update that error appears
[02:33] <twopeak> ive just changed /etc/environment and it kind of fucked up my system: some stuff are in cyrilic. the /etc/environment is back to what it was before i edited it.
[02:33] <diavoloS> but now i think is fuxed
[02:33] <diavoloS> *fixed
[02:34] <carbo> is there any program that will tag my music automatically?
[02:34] <DJAdmiral> thanks again, Matthewv
[02:34] <fyrestrtr> carbo: a few, if you just need tagging try EasyTAG -- if you want something that tags and plays, and gets the cd covers from the net, try Banshee
[02:34] <Matthewv> thanx gnomefreak and _jason and ubotu :)
[02:34] <Delicates> how would you organise adding a 500GB drive to your already running system? As in how would you partition it, format it, mount it?
[02:34] <fyrestrtr> ubotu: botsnack
[02:34] <ubotu> thanks fyrestrtr :)
[02:35] <carbo> fyrestrtr: yeah just tagging... I'll look into that EasyTAG

[03:53] (SilentPenguin/#ubuntu) lafferpt - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10758 it is saying command not found when i go dpkg
[03:53] (Arrick/#ubuntu) typos
[03:53] (no_gatez_fan/#ubuntu) HOEHAVER/ your bios set to boot off cd?
[03:54] (HOEHAVER/#ubuntu) yes i have it set to boot up from it first
[03:54] (_jason/#ubuntu) SilentPenguin: sudo with an 'o', not sudu
[03:54] (Arrick/#ubuntu) HOEHAVER: did you check the integrity of the download?
[03:54] (SilentPenguin/#ubuntu) HAHAHAHa
[03:54] (HOEHAVER/#ubuntu) no
[03:54] (lafferpt/#ubuntu) SilentPenguin, it's not sudu its sudo
[03:54] (Nabiki/#ubuntu) Well everyone, I must get going soon. :)

[03:54] (HOEHAVER/#ubuntu) ?
[03:54] (SilentPenguin/#ubuntu) HAHAHAHAHA
[03:54] (protocol1/#ubuntu) kbrooks, is there something I can use with firestarter that you'd recommend?
[03:54] (Arrick/#ubuntu) hang on
[03:54] (HOEHAVER/#ubuntu) ok
[03:54] (oskude/#ubuntu) HOEHAVER, i hope you burned it as "image" not just make a new "data cd" and then dragging the iso in it...
[03:54] (GnarusLeo/#ubuntu) bigfoot1, you can check you "service-admin"
[03:55] (_jason/#ubuntu) SilentPenguin: isn't ghost script in the repositories?
[03:55] (SilentPenguin/#ubuntu) oh god I am freekin stupid
[03:55] (HOEHAVER/#ubuntu) .......
[03:55] (bigfoot1/#ubuntu) rambo3: thanks for the link. i almost missed your message. next time, please put my nickname in your message
[03:55] (Nabiki/#ubuntu) I have learned what I wanted to learn this evening.  :P I figured out how to use libtool to make a simple library.  (the website documentation is good, but the manpages suck).  Later I shall tackle shared libs.
[03:55] <anne_> how could i set permissions for all files in one folder?
[03:55] <HOEHAVER> yeah i did the data thing and then i just draged the iso file
[03:56] <HOEHAVER> but on the options i had burn iso file selected
[03:56] <Arrick> HOEHAVER: check out the wiki site for checking the integrity of the disc
[03:56] <SilentPenguin> _jason I don't know I was looking for a way to get my scanner to work and I found, i found my printer/scanner/copier on some website, this is the drivers no?
[03:56] <_jason> anne_: cd to the directory and then chmod <permissions> *
[03:56] <no_gatez_fan> HOEHAVER/  you need to burn it as an image
[03:56] <_jason> SilentPenguin: no idea

[03:56] <HOEHAVER> ok
[03:56] <rambo3> np when xchat implements tabing to nicknames ill do that bi
[03:56] <no_gatez_fan> not just drag it on cd
[03:56] <Arrick> what progrm you using HOEHAVER?
[03:56] <oskude> HOEHAVER, your burn prgram should have an option "burn image" (i hoped the download page said that)
[03:56] <bigfoot1> rambo3: it does
[03:56] <bigfoot1> rambo3: doesn't it?
[03:57] <SilentPenguin> _jason I have one of those 3in1 printers. The printer works nicely, but I cant figure out how to get the scanner to work.
[03:57] <HOEHAVER> 5.04
[03:57] <rambo3> it  does
[03:57] <HOEHAVER> i think it did
[03:57] <_jason> SilentPenguin: have you checked linuxprinting.org?
[03:57] <bigfoot1> rambo3: i don't get you.
[03:57] <HOEHAVER> oooo

[04:01] <ubotu> rumour has it, mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:01] <Discipulus> sYndax, it might be up to high
[04:01] <NikJ> Oh, come on
[04:01] <brentn> I've read the wiki, but haven't had luck yet
[04:01] <NikJ> Every mp3 player on the whole wide world supports it

[04:02] <_jason> Cryptid: take a look at ubotu's link for mp3's
[04:02] <NikJ> just open the file
[04:02] <anne_> but how kan i change the owner of files?
[04:02] <HOEHAVER> when i put the cd in and open it so i can view the files it says its an iso file
[04:02] <brentn> not muted as far as I can tell, and the device appears to be recognized, though some fields are "unknown" in the device manager
[04:03] <NikJ> changing owners - chown
[04:03] <anne_> thx
[04:03] <HOEHAVER> so can i just put it on my dads computer and burn it again only this time ill make it an image?
[04:03] <HOEHAVER> would it work?
[04:03] <delphiuk> HOEHAVER: Sounds like you just burn the file to the cd
[04:03] <Nico`Sleep> My ubuntu order hasnt come yet =/ its been a little over 6 weeks now
[04:03] <Nico`Sleep> how long will it take
[04:03] <HOEHAVER> yeah i didnt think that was a problem
[04:04] <protocol1> HOEHAVER, google for a program called deepburn
[04:04] <HOEHAVER> i just though as long as it was an iso file it was all goof
[04:04] <protocol1> and use that to make an iso image cd
[04:04] <HOEHAVER> ok
[04:04] <rambo3> nico Sleep for the time you have been here you could have downloaded it
[04:04] <oskude> HOEHAVER, in theory it sounds like a yes, the "iso" should still be a "iso" file in the cd, copy it on your HD and then select "burn image" in your burning program and select that "iso"
[04:04] <HOEHAVER> ok ill try it
[04:04] <HOEHAVER> thanks
[04:05] <brentn> I believe alsa modules are loaded
[04:05] <sYndax> discipulus: will try thanks. :)
[04:05] <C-O-L-T> albacker: hello my friend. Can you tell me how to flush, delete my printer jobs in terminal. My printer stopped working, probably because of too many jobs
[04:05] <kbrooks> can i register a new project at LP?
[04:05] <twopeak> is there anyone who can help me with my keyboard, i tried some things from earlyer but i cant get it to get the "belgium" layout
[04:05] <HOEHAVER> it was all good****
[04:05] <bigfoot1> in my ubuntu, how can i change "toggle boxes". it's hard for me to see if the buttons are "pressed" or "unpressed". I'd rather have a checkmark in the box
[04:05] <misfit> I cannot unmark the package for removal :-(
[04:05] <HOEHAVER> i typed goof
[04:06] <sYndax> what is more recommended the ALSA or the OSS mixer?
[04:06] <brentn> can anyone assist with getting my sound card working?  I should note I have two devices, one is an onboard intel device, the one I want is an Audigy 2 Value
[04:06] <NikJ> alsa is newer
[04:06] <bigfoot1> NikJ: does that mean alsa is recommended?
[04:07] <oskude> now that i look it, theres no help mentioned on howto burn the images on the ubuntu download pages !!!
[04:07] <NikJ> wait, searching the web for quote.....
[04:07] <HOEHAVER> hey, you have to pay for deepburn
[04:07] <HOEHAVER> and i think its for windows
[04:07] <HOEHAVER> is it?
[04:07] <misfit> brentn you need to add something to your modules at start up
[04:07] <misfit> I have a value too
[04:07] <bigfoot1> rambo3: if i buy that dualslot motherboard, then problem is solved?
[04:07] <misfit> lemme check..
[04:07] <delphiuk> HOEHAVER: what os are you trying to burn the iso in?
[04:07] <protocol1> HOEHAVER, hang on
[04:07] <brentn> I moprobed snd-pcm-oss, snd-emu10k1 and snd-mixer-oss
[04:07] <protocol1> theres a free version
[04:07] <HOEHAVER> lol never mind
[04:07] <protocol1> let me get the url
[04:07] <HOEHAVER> ill just do it on my dads
[04:07] <HOEHAVER> to simplefy it
[04:08] <protocol1> ok sounds good
[04:08] <NikJ> Well, OSS is deprecated
[04:08] <NikJ> Alsa is the future
[04:08] <oskude> HOEHAVER, i remember using "xpburnerpro" under winoze... (i think it was atleast freeware)
[04:08] <twopeak> where can i find of the iso reference codes for different keyboard layouts
[04:08] <brentn> misfit, anyway you could share what's in your /etc/modules for the value?
[04:08] <oskude> HOEHAVER, *or somehing that sounded like that...
[04:08] <C-O-L-T> delphiuk: can you tell me why is that when I write a cd with gnomebaker I can not read it, but when I write with k3b it works fine. I ask you cause I have seen you were talking about iso and writing
[04:08] <rnd_null> -=what is the command to  run Terminal?=-
[04:08] <misfit> Yeah sure
[04:08] <NikJ> @rnd-null "gnome-terminal"?
[04:09] <artur> gh
[04:09] <rnd_null> NikJ, thank you
[04:09] <misfit> under lp, mousedev etc I added;
[04:09] <delphiuk> For windows: http://www.cdburnerxp.se/
[04:09] <misfit> snd-pcm-oss
[04:09] <misfit> snd-emu10k1

[04:10] <misfit> And restarted, it seemed to get th device right away. But then I had to go into alsamixer and play with settings
[04:10] <Silverspeed> if i have a deb file how do i install it?
[04:10] <brentn> misfit: thanks, I'll try that
[04:10] <fiendskull9> hells yes
[04:10] <misfit> scared myself so bad as the speakers were load lol
[04:10] <misfit> loud
[04:10] <oskude> Silencer, sudo dpkg -i package.deb (but be sure its for ubuntu of your choice)
[04:11] <Silverspeed> Thanks even though my name isnt silencer :P
[04:11] <twopeak> fiendskull9: does that include sound. I used amsn with video but sound was broken
[04:11] <fiendskull9> twopeak, havent tried the sound yet
[04:11] <oskude> oh. sry, my tabbings fault :)
[04:11] <fiendskull9> twopeak, its really sketchy, sometimes itll find vid0 and sometimes it doesnt] 
[04:11] <bigfoot1> guys, i have two old computers. One is 500mHz pentium, the other is 300mHz. If I buy a dual-slot processor, such as the one at http://shop.store.yahoo.com/justdeals/p3cd500s.html, will i be able to easily and cheaply combine the processing power of the two?
[04:12] <SilentPenguin> ok, I have a question... If I download a program for example...  BlahPackage.tar.bz2 ... How would I got about installing it?
[04:12] <brentn> in alsamixer, how do I change the device I'm working with?  It's picking the first device and I want to change the settings for a second sound device
[04:12] <bigfoot1> correction: dual-slot *motherboard*
[04:12] <misfit> Silentpenguin: if you unpack it you will probably find instructions inside
[04:12] <protocol1> HOEHAVER, http://www.mrfreefree.com/free_software/free_cd_dvd_burners.html theres the program on that url if you still wanted it.......its the free version
[04:12] <NikJ> np
[04:13] <alkuovi> there are some programs I can run only with root access, how can i run them with ordinary user privileges
[04:13] <brentn> nm, manpage
[04:13] <wimdows> #ubuntu+1
[04:13] <oskude> bigfoot1, i never used more than 1 processor, but in theory i would think you can run the "base" system (gnome&co) in the other and your favorite program in the other)...
[04:14] <Hostis> Any one that knows anything about setting upp an Counter Strike Server on Ubuntu ?
[04:14] <oskude> but thinking ALL would be 2x with 2processor i cant think to be correct (but as i said, i didnt ever have 2processors in one pc)
[04:14] <fiendskull9> I got Hostis everyone
[04:15] <rnd_null> SilentPenguin: sudo dpkg -i blah.deb (i think thats the right command)
[04:16] <pchapman> why does mysql require postfix?
[04:16] <oskude> Hostis, im pretty sure valve has howtos on that, the "general" linux howtos should work on ubuntu too (but i never done steam sever on linux)
[04:16] <fiendskull9> Hostis, Ubuntu isnt good for css servers
[04:16] <tony_> hi I cannot see any networks when i scan using DWL-G520+ wireless card.
[04:16] <fiendskull9> Hostis, but for now, http://server.counterstrike.com
[04:17] <bigfoot1> oskude: you mean having a dual-slot motherboard won't combine the 2 processor's powers? It just physically holds them side by side?
[04:17] <tony_> does anyone know how to configure it? thanks in advance. im new to linux
[04:17] <oskude> bigfoot1, thats what i would think (but actually i have NO knowledge on that)
[04:17] <fiendskull9> oops
[04:17] <fiendskull9> Hostis, http://server.counter-strike.net/
[04:17] <Hostis> :P

[04:21] <bluestorm> hum
[04:21] <InfraRed> Hostis: i think debian is popular for cs:s servers, but you should check steam website
[04:21] <oskude> bigfoot1, but there are programs (ive heard) that specially utilizes the 2 processors, so the program "really" is 2x faster with 2 processors...
[04:21] <tony_> hi can someone help me with configuring wirelss networks in ubuntu?
[04:21] <bluestorm> i have a little problem installing ubuntu on a HP dv1000 laptop

[04:27] <takedown> !nvidia
[04:27] <ubotu> [nvidia]  at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[04:27] <jbroome> Kr4t05: will audacity do it?
[04:27] <danf_1979> Uhm... why in christ name does not the * works now?
[04:27] <fiendskull9> jbroome, no audacity wont work for that] 
[04:27] <oskude> Kr4t05, polyphonic (meaning a own track for every instrument) from mp3 is impossible...
[04:28] <Kr4t05> oskude: Didn't think it would...
[04:28] <danf_1979> You were right jbroome, it seems to be a * issue
[04:28] <gimmulf_> !nvidia
[04:28] <ubotu> somebody said nvidia was at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[04:28] <oskude> Kr4t05, i think those "polyphonic" handy ringtones are just "midi" files...
[04:28] <_jason> danf_1979: it may be the expansion of *, do you have any '-' in file names?
[04:29] <Kr4t05> oskude: Ah...
[04:29] <xerophyte_> Where can i get drapper ISO i wanna test on vmware install
[04:29] <Kr4t05> So, if I can find a way to generate a midi from an mp3, I might be set. :P

[04:29] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, fiendskull9
[04:29] <danf_1979> _jason, you're my hero
[04:30] <fiendskull9> Kr4t05, look around the ubuntu site
[04:30] <danf_1979> you're the greatest chat debugger
[04:30] <oskude> Kr4t05, i make(made) music, so i know what "polyphonic", but i never had a celltelephone, so dont really "know" about their "polyphonic"
[04:30] <danf_1979> it was a bloody -
[04:30] <xerophyte_> how long 5.10 will be supported
[04:30] <fiendskull9> xerophyte_, prolly a long time
[04:30] <bigfoot1> xerophyte_: for 3 years
[04:30] <jbroome> danf_1979: sweet, glad you figured it out. :)
[04:30] <fiendskull9> xerophyte_, hoary is still supported i beleive
[04:31] <danf_1979> Yeah... "I" figured it out, lol
[04:31] <danf_1979> thanks
[04:31] <Kr4t05> oskude: If all else fails, I'll bung $2 for those goofy SMS ones.
[04:31] <jbroome> danf_1979: you and _jason :)
[04:31] <oskude> Kr4t05, its your money...
[04:31] <xerophyte_> bigfoot1, i thought only 18 months from the release so just wondering
[04:31] <danf_1979> This sounded like a win95 buggy feature
[04:31] <Kr4t05> oskude: that's why I'm looking into a free method first. ;)
[04:32] <fiendskull9> xerophyte_, it comes out in 2 months :)

[04:34] <twopeak> Isnt there anyone that feels like saving me? if i cant get this fixed i have no choice but to go back to a bad operating system ;-)
[04:34] <oskude> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCNR
[04:35] <_jason> danf_1979: read it somewhere once, can't really remember where
[04:35] <SilentPenguin> ok, I have a really silly question... when I first installed ununtu I was playing around and I clicked a button that makes the idle windows behind ... it pops up without haveing to click on it ... so bad explanation.  but now I need to turn it off and I forgot where I turned it on in the fist place!! haha

[04:43] <Arrick> it doesnt have many there
[04:43] <useruser> Arrick: yeah, well there's not so much ubuntu-specific stuff you need to know, really
[04:43] <sdghsgh> thank you Misnix
[04:43] <useruser> Arrick: most of that just works :)
[04:44] <jadaz87> bigfoot1 no i do not unfortunatelty also the version number has to be changed also
[04:44] <Misnix> sdghsgh, du -sk for the total only
[04:44] <Wintermut1> I was wondering
[04:44] <jadaz87> bigfoot1 it should be 6.06 because it is coming out in june
[04:44] <Cryptid> !ipod
[04:44] <ubotu> info for syncing your iPod is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto
[04:44] <bigfoot1> jadaz87: good point.
[04:44] <Wintermut1> how many of you
[04:44] <Wintermut1> are moving on after ubuntu
[04:44] <Wintermut1> i mean to another distro
[04:44] <bigfoot1> jadaz87: never even thought about that
[04:45] <bigfoot1> jadaz87: i wonder if they'll just scrap with the numbering, and just call it dapper
[04:45] <diavoloS> how can i download something from internet from web browser ?
[04:45] <oskude> vertex78, the last time (way back) i used wlan was with a "prism3" chip, so it worked like a charm...
[04:45] <bigfoot1> jadaz87: i don't know.
[04:45] <imachine> !ntfs
[04:45] <ubotu> I heard ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[04:45] <diavoloS> because i need root permission
[04:45] <Wintermut1> diavolos:
[04:45] <Wintermut1> just click on the link
[04:45] <mianiak> awesom work, i just installed kubuntu on my laptop, it is an exelent distribution, everything works. very well done
[04:45] <Wintermut1> I think that you need
[04:45] <Wintermut1> root permission
[04:46] <Silverspeed> can i do a search to search for a certian word in all text file sin a certain directory?
[04:46] <diavoloS> yeap
[04:46] <Wintermut1> to actually get onto the net
[04:46] <_jason> Silverspeed: grep -R
[04:46] <Wintermut1> I have an ADSL connection
[04:46] <diavoloS> i clicked on the link to download a software but it doesn`t downloads
[04:46] <American> !livecd
[04:46] <Wintermut1> and need root to get online
[04:46] <useruser> Silverspeed: grep -F word *
[04:46] <Wintermut1> what browser are you using??
[04:47] <twopeak> whats the use of writing an exclamation mark and then a word?
[04:47] <diavoloS> firefox
[04:47] <Misnix> man grep
[04:47] <_jason> twopeak: it invokes ubotu
[04:47] <bluesign> hi
[04:47] <_jason> !tell twopeak about yourself
[04:47] <Wintermut1> hmm...
[04:47] <diavoloS> but i think it`s because of hdd ... because i don`t have all permissions
[04:47] <Arrick> useruser: I am trying to finish setting up my print server, and not getting very far with it
[04:48] <bluesign> I have a usb disk, and I wanna use it as a backup solution, do you suggest any good software? I am new to linux world :)
[04:48] <jadaz87> bigfoot1 well dapper is like the friendly release codename haha the numbering will always stay: ubuntu x.xx
[04:48] <diavoloS> i have the permission only to read and execute
[04:48] <diavoloS> not write
[04:48] <tesseract> my DVD drive no longer mounts CDs, it used to, but stopped working now. when I try "sudo mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0" it replies "mount: No medium found". however I can mount AND play my Futurama DVDs, it's just CDs that don't work...
[04:48] <Wintermut1> diavolos: go to FF>>EDIT>>Preferences
[04:48] <Wintermut1> goto downloads tab
[04:48] <useruser> tesseract: can you mount data dvds?
[04:48] <tesseract> useruser: I'm not sure, I don't have any data dvds
[04:49] <Wintermut1> and set the downloads folder to somewhere you do have write access to
[04:49] <twopeak> !keyboard
[04:49] <ubotu> twopeak: My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:49] <diavoloS> humm... i don`t have permissions to write on hdd`s
[04:49] <useruser> tesseract: how do you know that /dev/hdc is correct?
[04:49] <Okay> hi
[04:49] <diavoloS> how can i change that ?
[04:49] <Wintermut1> that's strange
[04:49] <tesseract> useruser: it used to work, and when it did, the drive was under /dev/hdc.
[04:50] <Wintermut1> every user should have write permission on their home folders
[04:50] <tesseract> now I cannot even boot from the Ubuntu CD I used to install Ubuntu in the first place...
[04:50] <diavoloS> aha
[04:50] <Wintermut1> ??
[04:50] <IamEthos> does Ubuntu support printing to a network printer?
[04:50] <IamEthos> if not, can this be added?
[04:50] <diavoloS> but if i want to get permissions on other hdd`s what should i do ?
[04:50] <Wintermut1> do you know the root password
[04:50] <Wintermut1> ??
[04:50] <diavoloS> yes i do
[04:51] <Wintermut1> good
[04:51] <useruser> tesseract: odd. maybe your hardware is defective
[04:51] <useruser> tesseract: do you have another OS for comparison?
[04:51] <Wintermut1> open a terminal
[04:51] <diavoloS> yes
[04:51] <diavoloS> i opened
[04:51] <Wintermut1> and navigate to whatever hdd you want to use
[04:51] <useruser> tesseract: and have you tried more than one data cd?
[04:52] <diavoloS> good
[04:52] <tesseract> useruser: yep, I have Fedora Core and Slackware, but I cannot boot from the FC disc. I haven't tried booting from the slack disc but cannot mount it, so doesn't seem much point in trying.
[04:52] <Wintermut1> now use sudo mkdir to create a dir in that folder
[04:52] <vertex78> oskdude, man that is a big list is there any more simple pages that just recommends a few cards and where to buy them?
[04:52] <diavoloS> i created
[04:52] <Wintermut1> good
[04:52] <useruser> tesseract: i expect your drive is wonky then
[04:52] <diavoloS> and now i should do chmod +x ?
[04:53] <Wintermut1> no
[04:53] <diavoloS> sudo chmod +x folder ?
[04:53] <diavoloS> or?
[04:53] <useruser> tesseract: if it's a desktop, you could open it up and check cables and so on
[04:53] <tesseract> useruser: mm, I thought so. I checked inside the case but all the cables seem firmly attached.
[04:53] <Wintermut1> do sudo chmod a+rw folder
[04:53] <useruser> :)
[04:53] <Wintermut1> that will give all users read/wrtie permission on that folder
[04:53] <tesseract> useruser: it is pretty dusty though. is it likely the dust screwed it up?
[04:53] <diavoloS> ok
[04:53] <diavoloS> thanks
[04:53] <Wintermut1> try it
[04:53] <useruser> tesseract: dunno, hardware is like voodoo. maybe...
[04:54] <Cryptid> How do i add and retrive Pictures from my iPOD nano?????please help

[05:02] <mark__> AntiVir
[05:02] <mark__> only AvGuard
[05:02] <Wintermut1> Why
[05:02] <Wintermut1> linux does need Antivirus protection
[05:02] <Wintermut1> I meant
[05:02] <diavoloS> it`s the same
[05:02] <mark__> yes?
[05:02] <Wintermut1> does NOT need
[05:02] <mark__> ok
[05:02] <mark__> :)
[05:02] <mark__> hehe
[05:02] <diavoloS> only the owner have all rights
[05:02] <chrisn`> Arguably, not even Windows needs AntiVirus...
[05:02] <mark__> now i try install Winamp
[05:02] <chrisn`> Just common sense and a good firewall. :)
[05:03] <tristanmike> yeah, right....

[05:03] <mark__> but i cant find Winamp for Linux
[05:03] <Wintermut1> get Amarok
[05:03] <chrisn`> sudo apt-get install xmms :)
[05:03] <Wintermut1> Winamp is only for windows
[05:03] <vertex78> can someone tell the name of a wireless nic card i should go buy that will work out of the box? I looked at a hardware compability list but I am not very good at figuring that stuff out
[05:03] <void^> get audacious
[05:03] <chrisn`> Or even better: http://www.musicpd.org
[05:03] <Wintermut1> diavoloS::
[05:03] <diavoloS> yes
[05:03] <mark__>  sudo apt-get install xmms.....what xmms?
[05:04] <Wintermut1> who is listed as the folder's owner
[05:04] <Wintermut1> XMMS
[05:04] <Wintermut1> is a media player
[05:04] <mark__> kk
[05:04] <Wintermut1> similar to Winamp
[05:04] <Wintermut1> very similar
[05:04] <phan-> what is the line for the source.list to download mplayer?
[05:04] <Wintermut1> umm...
[05:04] <Wintermut1> not sure
[05:04] <slycer> hy!
[05:05] <Wintermut1> hi
[05:05] <slycer> :p
[05:05] <Arrick> useruser: I cant seem to find a copy f rutebook on the web, any ideas?
[05:05] <diavoloS> owner
[05:05] <NeverDream> I'm having some trouble burning CDs... can anyone help me?
[05:05] <Marbles> does xmms use winamp skins?
[05:05] <chrisn`> Yes.
[05:05] <chrisn`> Perfectly.
[05:05] <slycer> can i use a gnu software to make a shareware program?
[05:05] <diavoloS> root
[05:05] <Marbles> we got a fake winamp
[05:05] <chrisn`> And vice-versa, I'm led to believe.
[05:05] <Marbles> kool
[05:05] <Wintermut1> sylcer::
[05:06] <Wintermut1> you can use GNU tools like compilers
[05:06] <Wintermut1> but you can't include source code
[05:06] <EasterSunshine> hello everyone. today, when i started ubuntu, i noticed x didn't start, so i logged into tty1, got a dma timeout, but after a while, i got in. i shutdown'ed and ran a fsck, got a clean filesystem, so i restarted...now on the boot screen it goes all the up to Checking Battery State...[ OK ]  and then nothing happens. how can i fix this?
[05:06] <slycer> what i what to do
[05:06] <slycer> is use linux as the operating sistem where o will make the software
[05:06] <Wintermut1> diavolos
[05:06] <diavoloS> Wintermut1 so what should i do ?
[05:06] <diavoloS> yes
[05:06] <vertex78> No one here can recommend a wireless nic to buy?
[05:07] <Wintermut1> try just copying a file onto the drive
[05:07] <Wintermut1> sorry
[05:07] <slycer> and use gimp to make some images
[05:07] <diavoloS> i can`t
[05:07] <Wintermut1> dont use wireless
[05:07] <vertex78> ok
[05:07] <Wintermut1> hmm...
[05:07] <zipper|> Uhm, i "accidently" installed the "kde" package. Now i want to remove it, and all the stuff that was installed with it, how can this be done?
[05:07] <Wintermut1> zipper::
[05:07] <void^> vertex78: atheros chipsets are nice (with madwifi driver)
[05:07] <mark__> can i do a question?
[05:07] <Wintermut1> select the package and "remove completely"
[05:08] <EasterSunshine> zipper| sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[05:08] <Wintermut1> a question
[05:08] <Wintermut1> ??
[05:08] <vertex78> what are some cards that use the atheros chipsets?
[05:08] <mark__> mm
[05:08] <zipper|> i didnt install the kubuntu-desktop package, i installed the "kde" package
[05:08] <mark__> How can i play Mp3 file?
[05:08] <zipper|> Wintermut1?
[05:08] <NeverDream> all the CD recording tools I've tried think the fastest write speed is 4x but it's 48x... and if I try to burn at 4x (which is the fastest it thinks it goes), the drive light comes on, nothing gets burned, and the system crashes
[05:08] <Wintermut1> yes
[05:08] <chrisn`> AIUI, kde-desktop would remove all the dependencies for the general 'kde' package.
[05:08] <chrisn`> Upon removal
[05:08] <IamEthos> is there any media player that is similar to winamp, but has a media library and some of the other newer features of Winamp?
[05:08] <zipper|> EasterSunshine
[05:08] <Wintermut1> get amarok
[05:08] <AndyA> how do solve the Greeter app. problem on 5.10 (clean install)?

[05:09] <diavoloS> Wintermut1 so what should i do ?
[05:09] <slycer> ok

[05:09] <bluesign> I want to resize my linux partition, where can I find a tiny cd image that can resize ext2?
[05:09] <Wintermut1> diavolos
[05:09] <NeverDream> I know recording worked fine on some older distros
[05:09] <chrisn`> IamEthos, I'd take a look at the clients in MPD. Great sound and database backend, and it's so easy to create your own clients, so you're bound to either find one you like, or do it yourself out of frustration. ;)
[05:09] <Wintermut1> try doing the whole thing
[05:09] <chrisn`> http://www.musicpd.org
[05:09] <diavoloS> wich is ?

[05:18] <Arrick> thanks
[05:18] <franker> cdubya i'm using Thunderbird
[05:18] <cdubya> franker, are you using 1.5?
[05:18] <Arrick> danf_1979: how do you open the doc files once you install them?

[05:19] <franker> cdubya not only 1.0.7
[05:19] <oskude> gimmulf_, good question... i would change the driver to "vesa" in xorg.conf and change the card, then install the nvidia drivers (but what ever you do, you dont really _need_ the X while you change)

[05:37] <fiendskull9> when i try to boot gnome
[05:38] <InfraRed> Unity: http://www.bittorrent.com/download.myt
[05:38] <InfraRed> it should be in apt somewhere
[05:38] <AndyA> has anyone had GREETER APP. problem on clean install amd64?
[05:38] <fiendskull9> it sais $HOME/.dmrc does not have proper permissions to save, and is being ignored. please give 644 permissions.
[05:38] <Unity> couldn't find it in apt unless we both spelled it wrong
[05:38] <fiendskull9> and then when i click ok
[05:38] <fiendskull9> i get a message saying
[05:38] <fiendskull9> session lasted less than 10 seconds, then goes back to login
[05:38] <InfraRed> Unity: apt-cache search bittorrent
[05:38] <foxbove> ciao
[05:38] <ssam> Unity, i think its installed by default. type 'bt' and press tab
[05:39] <fiendskull9> Unity, Bittorrent is auto installed on ubuntu
[05:39] <ssam> Unity, btdownloadcurses
[05:39] <eeeyore> Is there any way to get Ubuntu to do full automatic hardware redetection on every boot, or force a full automatic hardware redetect?
[05:39] <chmod775> maxkelley, hi dude
[05:40] <ssam> eeeyore, the live cd does it so it should be possible
[05:40] <Unity> ssam: E: Couldn't find package btdownloadcurses
[05:40] <ssam> Unity, thats the application name, i dont know what the packages is
[05:41] <Unity> maybe bittornado
[05:41] <kyncani> eeeyore: i think it already does, the package is named discover or discover1
[05:41] <Unity> grr! apt errors!
[05:41] <ssam> Unity, bittorrent
[05:41] <eeeyore> ssam: i believe the livecd uses a different system
[05:41] <maxkelley> hrmah?
[05:41] <Unity>  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/bittornado_0.3.11-4ubuntu4_all.deb (--unpack): unable to open files list file for package `libgcrypt11': Input/output error
[05:41] <ssam> eeeyore, yeah, it might be a big task, but technically possible
[05:42] <Unity> i get that error trying to install anything
[05:42] <eeeyore> I'm looking for something that isn't a big task ;)
[05:42] <NeverDream> is it possible to burn a cd without crashing my system?
[05:42] <ssam> eeeyore, maybe if you copy the entire live cd on to a partition and try and get grub to boot it
[05:42] <eeeyore> I know i can ask for example dpkg to redetect for the xorg package

[05:53] <AndyA> I have a gun pointed to my head. If I don't get an answer to my question in 10 sec. I'll pull the trigger.
[05:53] <SilentPenguin> !pastebin

[05:54] <patrick52222> ubuntu can use other desktops than gnome is this true
[05:54] <blueOrange> void^: thxs ill take another look. i have been looking but upon seeing contridictory info i was confused about what to do.
[05:55] <wine> winex
[05:55] <void^> patrick52222: of course
[05:55] <ssam> ron_, they work for me
[05:55] <patrick52222> where can i get these desktops then
[05:56] <patrick52222> just to try out
[05:56] <ssam> AndyA, you sometimes have to wait a while to get an answer
[05:56] <ssam> AndyA, have you tried the forums?
[05:57] <aridese> how do i use a *.rpm in ubuntu? with alien?
[05:57] <Arrick> AndyA: pull the trigger, it's easier and the wimps way out
[05:57] <Seveas> aridese, better not use them..
[05:57] <Arrick> AndyA: hehe
[05:57] <_jason> aridese: it's best if you don't, what are you trying to install?
[05:57] <aridese> an xmms-wma plugin
[05:57] <me> aridese it probably won't work
[05:57] <aridese> ah ok
[05:57] <deizi> does bitcomet work on wine?
[05:58] <ron_> bitcomet works without wine
[05:58] <C-O-L-T> how to delete my printer jobs in terminal ?
[05:58] <sinstari> Ok thanks. Here's the problem. During installation, the partitioner takes like an hour or so just to detect file systems and whatever else it is doing. After that, when I tries to actually create partitions, it takes even longer time. I have tried to get around this problem by creating partitions with slackware (which works), but If i choose to skip partition the hdd and start the setup instead, it enters the partitioner anyway...
[05:58] <mike-e> is it possible to log out of gnomea and just have a full screen console?
[05:58] <NeverDream> no way I'm install k3b if it's going to install all that kde crap
[05:58] <ron_> oh :/
[05:59] <me> CTRL ALT F1 will give you a full screen console
[05:59] <Seveas> mike-e, <ctrl><alt><f1>
[05:59] <peck_> how can I change ruby's target? i want "ruby" to point to /usr/local/bin/ruby
 brings you back
[05:59] <NeverDream> especially since the device manager gets it wrong, too
[05:59] <patrick52222> wats ruby
[05:59] <me> And then <ctrl><alt><f7> to get back
[05:59] <Seveas> peck_, remove uby from /usr/local/bin if you don't want to use it
[05:59] <C-O-L-T> Seveas: sorry to disturb, do you know how to delete printer jobs in terminal?
[05:59] <mike-e> thanks
[05:59] <_jason> you guys should really explain the ALT+f7 part first I think
[05:59] <Seveas> C-O-L-T, lprm (see its manpage for details)
[06:00] <peck_> Seveas, what to you mean?
[06:00] <Seveas> peck_, why is there a ruby in your /usr/local/bin?
[06:00] <Seveas> if you don't want to use it: remove it
[06:00] <Enthusiast78> Hi, people! I have installed xubuntu-desktop on a server installation and it comes with no login manager... Which one do you recommend?
[06:00] <ablm> hello
[06:00] <peck_> Seveas, 'cause I put it there when I compiled it
[06:00] <C-O-L-T> Seveas: thanks it works
[06:01] <Seveas> peck_, then why don't you want to use it? 
[06:01] <me> ruby is used in amarok and maybe in some other programs. don't remove it
[06:01] <Enthusiast78> gdm?
[06:01] <Seveas> (peck_: a more usefu answer: make sure /usr/bin comes before /usr/local/bin in your $PATH)
[06:01] <AndyA> is anyone here using ubuntu 5.10 AMD64?
[06:01] <peck_> Seveas, exactly, how can I do that?
[06:01] <ablm> someone knows any site or tutorial to install dapper from badger ?
[06:01] <Seveas> peck_, dapper or breezy?
[06:01] <peck_> Seveas, breezy
[06:01] <me> ruby is a scripting programming language (like perl or python)
[06:02] <_jason> ablm: you know dapper is still in development?
[06:02] <diavoloS> how can i get write permission on a specifyed hdd ?
[06:02] <Seveas> peck_, edit /etc/bash.bashrc /etc/profile /etc/gdm/gdm.conf and maybe more
[06:02] <_jason> diavoloS: what filesystem?
[06:02] <NeverDream> Lua is teh best scripting languae
[06:02] <Seveas> (in dapper this madness is reduced to having a path defined only in /etc/environment)
[06:02] <ablm> yes
[06:02] <ablm> i know.. :)
[06:02] <Seveas> !dapper
[06:02] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[06:02] <_jason> Seveas, peck_: /etc/login.defs too for gnome
[06:02] <Seveas> !upgrade
[06:02] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade.  Upgrading to dapper (remember it may break). Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html.
[06:03] <Seveas> ablm --^
[06:03] <peck_> Seveas, oh... how could I compile it again forcing installation to /usr/bin/ruby then? might be easier
[06:03] <rmetz> i just installed ubuntu, does any1 know of a good linux tutorial?
[06:03] <ablm> tks :)
[06:03] <Seveas> peck_, you really don't want to do that, you'll overwrite files from Ubuntu packages...
[06:03] <_jason> ubotu: tell rmetz about rute
[06:03] <diavoloS> _jason i want to get write permission on my hard disk what can i do ? now i only have read and execute
[06:03] <_jason> diavoloS: what filesystem does it use?  ntfs, vfat, ext3?
[06:03] <peck_> Seveas, why's that bad? i want 1.8.4 not 1.8.3
[06:03] <sinstari> How old hardware does ubuntu support? I have an amd k6 333 MHz... is that too old?
[06:04] <Seveas> peck_, because you can totally mess things up with it
[06:04] <diavoloS> fat32
[06:04] <venox> sinstari: no, I have a pentium 2 300mhz and everything works fine
[06:04] <shutdown> _jason, hello... I am in #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:04] <venox> sinstari: what's your hardware?
[06:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell diavoloS about vfat
[06:04] <Seveas> but anyway: at your own risk: ./configure --prefix=/usr
[06:04] <_jason> diavoloS: pay attention to the table about permissions in the middle of the wiki page ubotu sent you
[06:04] <peck_> Seveas, thx :))
[06:04] <flisol> ggft
[06:04] <CryoTox> The little square thing in the bottom left hand corner.. Its like green, well I accidently removed it, how do I get it back?
[06:04] <robertj> is there any standard that is emerging as a successor to md5?
[06:05] <venox> sinstari: I mean, works fine but a bit slow... if you want speed you'll have to get rid of gnome and maybe firefox. they're too slow here on my box, I use xfce4 and epiphany
[06:05] <sinstari> Actually, I dont know what MB I have, but it has and AMD k6 333 Mhz. My Hdd is an Maxtor 6.7 GB IDE 100
[06:05] <venox> epiphany boots a bit slower than firefox, but it runs damn faster ;)
[06:05] <Eleaf> I can't seem to get jack to work!  Anybody want to help?
[06:05] <venox> hmm
[06:05] <venox> I have 60gb and 384mb ram...
[06:05] <venox> you need at least 128mb ram I think
[06:05] <Seveas> Eleaf, kick jacks ass and he'll work ;)
[06:05] <sinstari> the problem is that I cant even install ubuntu
[06:05] <Eleaf> Seveas, lol.  I was able to get this to work before.
[06:05] <sinstari> I does not accept my partitions
[06:06] <Eleaf> Currently the problem is "cannot load driver module alsa"
[06:06] <Seveas> Eleaf, dapper or breezy?
[06:06] <Eleaf> dapper.
[06:06] <CryoTox> Anyone know how to add it back?
[06:06] <Eleaf> I had this same problem in breezy though.
[06:06] <Seveas> jack is not recommended on dapper (neither on breezy, but dappers soundsystem is much less fucked up than breezys)
[06:06] <venox> sinstari: hmm, I cleaned up my partition table before installing ubuntu
[06:06] <venox> I'm using my p2 300mhz as file server in my network :P
[06:06] <Eleaf> Seveas, well, what should I do?  considering all the audio apps I use rely on jack..
[06:07] <patrick52222> right im at college and i have to do some work in microsoft access is there away ro get Access on ubuntu dapper drake
[06:07] <sinstari> How can you do that? using some other OS like slackware and just delete all partitions?
[06:07] <Seveas> Eleaf, hrmm... I guess you need to find help with someone else. Jack and I have quite a hate-hate relationship
[06:07] <AndyA> OK.... I've installed Ubuntu 5.10 amd64 and now have a greeter application crashing error. Can anyone help me?
[06:07] <Eleaf> hujmm
[06:07] <venox> patrick52222: wine? cedega? do you really need microsoft access? openoffice base can't do the job?
[06:08] <Eleaf> Seveas, it loads up the oss module fine.  How do I get it to use the module alsa if it can't find it?
[06:08] <Seveas> wish I knew 
[06:08] <diavoloS> hmm
[06:08] <venox> sinstari: I don't use another OS hehe
[06:08] <venox> well, but you can resize your slackware partitions
[06:08] <Alexi5> hello
[06:08] <Eleaf> Seveas, I put alsa in /etc/modules
[06:09] <venox> and create some new partitions on the remaining space
[06:09] <patrick52222> yes i have to use microsoft as i have to do some work at home and then take it in to college to complete, i like open office better

[06:16] <m0s|> and i have one more question : Do i have to download special drivers for my graphicscard ? :S
[06:16] <_jason> sinstari: 1.8gb is stated on the cd sleeve, you probably want more
[06:16] <patrick52222> depends wat are you going to use it for
[06:16] <bobbyd_> m0s|, what's card do you have?
[06:16] <diavoloS> _jason
[06:16] <diavoloS> this is weird
[06:16] <m0s|> bobbyd_, Nvidia 6600 GT 1980/ULTRA 256mb AGP x8 ^^
[06:17] <diavoloS> virus@home:~$ sudo bash diskmounter
[06:17] <diavoloS> By default the disks will be writable only by root and
[06:17] <diavoloS> ViRuSaKe (virus)
[06:17] <diavoloS> Do you want to make the disk writable by all users instead? (y/n)
[06:17] <diavoloS> y

[06:17] <diavoloS> No usable windows/mac partitions found
[06:17] <bobbyd_> m0s|, 2d will work out of the box, for 3d you need to install the resricted-modules package and nvidia-glx
[06:17] <_jason> diavoloS: please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[06:17] <bobbyd_> m0s|, look on the wiki for info about how to do that
[06:17] <blueOrange> ok REAL basic question here . . . i found a program that says it should enable my svideo out port.  i have navigated to the directory and i understand i need to do a "make install" which file should i do it on ?
[06:17] <m0s|> ahh..ok, thanks for the help :)
[06:18] <_jason> diavoloS: you already have the drives in your fstab.  What you want to do is read the wiki page (specifically the table about permissions) and edit your fstab accordingly
[06:18] <bobbyd_> m0s|, Nvidia drivers are really good for linux, they have the same release schedule as the windows ones
[06:18] <No_ThAnKs> hello, I'm a newbie on ubuntu and i want to set bluetooth on my laptop...After installing the packages, my laptop detects my cell but impossible to send pics or mp3 to my cell...Do u have any idea of the problem ?
[06:18] <m0s|> bobbyd_,  ahh..ok :)
[06:18] <NigelS> blueOrange: just type the command in the directory; make looks for a Makefile you don;'t need to type anything else
[06:19] <AndyA> Had anyone had a "Greeter application " error on 5.10 amd64 clean install?
[06:19] <AndyA> or any other.
[06:19] <AndyA> for that matter
[06:19] <azertyuuu> hey all, i want to connect via wLAN, but i get this  error : Aborting network switching due to invalid WEP key specification.
[06:20] <m0s|> bobbyd_,  can u give me direct link for that? i cant seem to find it :/
[06:20] <blueOrange> NigelS: thxs. i tried "sudo make install" and i got back "sudo: make: command not found" .
[06:20] <azertyuuu> where can i change these specifications ?
[06:20] <Ven] n> just installed ubuntu and it hangs at "starting hotplug subsystem.. " any ideas?
[06:20] <blueOrange> NigelS: but i do see a "makefile" in this directory.
[06:20] <NigelS> blueOrange: install the make program with sudo apt-get install make
[06:21] <chmod775> maxkelley, u therE ?
[06:21] <bobbyd_> m0s|, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29
[06:21] <bobbyd_> m0s|, I just searched on the wiki for nvidia and it was the first link :)
[06:22] <blueOrange> NigelS: ok great, that helps, thxs.
[06:22] <ASTX813> Morning, gang.  Can anyone help me figure out why I can't get nVidia graphics to play nice?
[06:23] <m0s|> bobbyd_,  haha, okey ;D
[06:23] <bobbyd_> does anyone here have a software raid array that stops correctly when then do "mdadm -sstop /dev/md0" ?
[06:24] <bobbyd_> I'm wondering if it's a general problem...
[06:24] <ASTX813> Or my wireless, but really, I'm more interested in getting glx working
[06:24] <bobbyd_> ASTX813, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29
[06:24] <Enthusiast78> which package installs the fancy X11 cursor?
[06:24] <simpo> can i define any module argumnets in /etc/modules ?
[06:24] <ASTX813> bobbyd_, followed that step by step last night
[06:24] <bobbyd_> ASTX813, what's the problem?
[06:25] <ASTX813> Lemme find you the error in the log...
[06:25] <sebastian> I have been trying and trying to get my .vmx file to stay as a .vmx file, but when I open it in VMware player or click on it in Gnome/KDE.  it turns intoo  a a.txt  file .
[06:25] <bobbyd_> simpo, no, they go somewhere else, don't remember where though...
[06:25] <blueOrange> NigelS: is there something else i need to do to install the code? it does seem to have worked i got "setting up make"
[06:26] <sebastian> I have been trying and trying to get my .vmx file to stay as a .vmx file, but when I open it in VMware player or click on it in Gnome/KDE.  It turns into a .txt file.
[06:26] <phildini> hi. can anyone point me in the way of a good tutorial for setting up a secure ftp server on ubuntu? either that or can someone describe how to do it?
[06:26] <ron_> error: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.4/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)
[06:26] <ron_> what do i need?
[06:27] <ron_> :/
[06:27] <Jimmey__> phildini, I'll talk you through..
[06:27] <Jimmey__> P.M. me.
[06:27] <sebastian> I have been trying and trying to get my .vmx file to stay as a .vmx file, but when I open click on it in Gnome/KDE.  It turns into a .txt file.  Also in VMware player it is a .txt file.
[06:27] <ASTX813> bobbyd_, OK, I no longer have that log because I tried different things after that way failed. but synaptic installed everything fine, nvidia-glx-config enable ran, but nothing happened when I restarted X
[06:27] <NigelS> blueOrange: a "normal" series of instructions to build a program would be to run a configure script with ./configure from the same dir ( that's not essential but quite useful for some projects so they include one) then to run "make" just on its own.  Then optionally to install the compiled binaries into the system tree with make install
[06:27] <bluesign> i have an issue with my video card, OpenGL renderer string says "Mesa DRI Intel(R) 852GM/855GM 20050225", i heard that mesa is software acceleration, is it true?
[06:27] <thoffmeyer> are the forums down?
[06:27] <bobbyd_> phildini, I think it comes as pasrt of openssh, it's called sftp, if you really mean secure ftp, if you just mean, set up and ftp site and secure it, then just look at the various ftp packages, and check you don' thave any ports open you don't need :)
[06:28] <Jimmey__> bluesign, download .rpm drivers from the Intel website, and use alien to convert them to .deb.
[06:28] <Plitskin> hi help please...
[06:28] <bluesign> Jimmey__: thanks a lot
[06:28] <Plitskin> how come that when I open a file I can't edit it?
[06:28] <ASTX813> Plitskin, be more specific
[06:28] <Plitskin> like...
[06:28] <Jimmey__> bluesign, I think I have the .deb here, now
[06:28] <Jimmey__> Are you using a laptop?
[06:28] <xxenon> is there a way to lower the frequency of my athlon (old 1200+) ?
[06:28] <Plitskin> vi grub.lst
[06:28] <Plitskin> I can view the content
[06:29] <void^> xxenon: bios or jumpers
[06:29] <bobbyd_> ASTX813, you need to put /var/log/Xorg.0.log somewhere I can look at it
[06:29] <m0s|> bobbyd_, Codega costs $$$ :/
[06:29] <Plitskin> but I can't edit anything...
[06:29] <ASTX813> Plitskin, try sudo vi grub.lst
[06:29] <NigelS> blueOrange: but in any event read the "INSTALL" file which is usually in the root dir of the source code by convention and that should tell you what steps it needs; also there might be specific make "targets" for this program
[06:29] <Plitskin> ok thanks I'll try that
[06:29] <ASTX813> Plitskin, I'm assuming you know how to use vi
[06:29] <ron_> error: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.4/config/Makefile (No such file or directory) <--- ??? plz
[06:29] <bobbyd_> m0s|, it's pretty cheap, only a few pounds. Also, plain wine runs a lot of games now
[06:29] <bobbyd_> m0s|, its only about $4 a month...
[06:29] <ASTX813> Plitskin, if you're not familiar with vi, it has a learning curve.  Try pico or some other editor.
[06:29] <m0s|> bobbyd_,  yeah, but i dont got any $$ s i have to go with Wine :p
[06:30] <xxenon> void^ - well..it's a laptop ...
[06:30] <bobbyd_> m0s|, get a job!
[06:30] <m0s|> bobbyd_,  haha, yeah, everyone tells me  ;)
[06:30] <bobbyd_> Plitskin, use nano :)
[06:30] <NigelS> iirc vanilla wine will run WoW now - though not 100% on that; there are guides out there to follow for it
[06:30] <ASTX813> bobbyd_, that log is gone, but gimme a few to redo the steps and i'll have it for ya
[06:30] <bobbyd_> m0s|, get a job doing somethign you like :)
[06:30] <bobbyd_> ASTX813, k
[06:30] <sebastian> you can install Windows inside LInux using the free VMware player!
[06:31] <void^> xxenon: heh.. i don't think the older athlons have frequency scaling :/
[06:31] <bobbyd_> NigelS, I just cba with it, I'd much rather just plug and play with cedega ;)
[06:31] <Elsan_> Is there any danger to uprading to Dapper? I know some people who did it and it beautifully but I'm still wondering...
[06:31] <sebastian> I have been trying and trying to get my .vmx file to stay as a .vmx file, but when I open click on it in Gnome/KDE.  It turns into a .txt file.  Also in VMware player it is a .txt file.
[06:31] <bobbyd_> Elsan_, yes, my sound stopped working and it's difficult to go back...
[06:31] <bobbyd_> Elsan_, it's 3 months off being finished...
[06:31] <bluesign> Jimmey__: it seems to be source rpm ? or am i mistaken?
[06:32] <blueOrange> NigelS: thxs, i know this stuff is basic, but i am just figuring it out. ok so i hadnt done the config thing, there is no install file, just a readme.  it looks to me like the last step is "make install" but i still dont seem to have the command at my disposal.
[06:32] <bobbyd_> sebastian, stop pasting the same thing over and over. What your pasting doesn't even make sense
[06:32] <Plitskin> ASTX813 - Not really :)
[06:32] <AndyA> here goes nothing. have anyone had Greeter application error on Ubuntu 5.10 amd64?
[06:32] <Jimmey__> bluesign, download the .rpm, and then, in the terminal, install alien: 'sudo apt-get install alien'
[06:32] <bobbyd_> sebastian, are you asking a question?
[06:32] <sebastian> yep
[06:32] <Elsan_> bobbyd_: Ok, it's that someone I know updated it and now he has wireless support and it just seems to work much better. And Kubuntu Breezy has some bugs on my system
[06:32] <NigelS> bobbyd_: hmm, cedega is not always as plug and play as it should be; quite often it's play - oh dear the game's been patched, time for another work around so go and edit that text file to avoid the nasty memory issue etc :)
[06:32] <bluesign> Jimmey__: yeah I converted it into deb
[06:33] <sebastian> for VMware player I need my .vmx file, but when I try and save the .vmx file.  it turns into a .txt file
[06:33] <bobbyd_> Elsan_, kubuntu dapper is great, but my sound doesn't work :)
[06:33] <Jimmey__> bluesign, in that case, just dpkg the deb
[06:33] <Plitskin> I didn't think that just a text editor could have such a learning curve...?
[06:33] <iocaste> i'm having sound problems as well
[06:33] <bluesign> Jimmey__: it extracted a tar.gz to /usr/X11R6/dripkg
[06:33] <NigelS> bobbyd_: I also think for some supported titles like BF2 etc, it's a little rich to say they work when most servers are unavailable given that they require anti-cheating software that does not work yet
[06:33] <Elsan_> boddyd_: What's really new with Kubuntu Dapper? I already have KDE 3.51 and all...
[06:33] <bobbyd_> NigelS, yeah, but that's just the nature of things being patched, at least it works for most of the stuff most of the time
[06:33] <iocaste> been trying to find a solution for weeks :(
[06:33] <bobbyd_> NigelS, yes, that's poor
[06:33] <Plitskin> anyway... With Grub, which should I change so I could make windows my default os to load?
[06:33] <LoCusF> !firefox1.5
[06:33] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[06:33] <Jimmey__> bluesign, give me a minute..
[06:34] <B_166-ER-X> how come if i have deleted a folder of mine i stored on my / partition,   the 'hd space left' didnt change ?
[06:34] <bluesign> Jimmey__: thanks a lot
[06:34] <bobbyd_> NigelS, I'd prefer native versions, but I know that's very difficult sometimes
[06:34] <NigelS> bobbyd_: I accept that it's part of the chasing game we'll have to play but still, it's not 100% plug and play all the time, it can get messy as any subscriber will tell you :)
[06:34] <Plitskin> there's a groot thing there but it's commented...
[06:34] <sebastian> to crate the .vmx file the stuff is put in a text editor.  and then saved as a .vmx file.  ,but for me they are just staying as a .txt file it seems.
[06:34] <NigelS> bobbyd_: yeah, only the idealists and there are few of them seem to do it now
[06:34] <bobbyd_> NigelS, yes, true, but it is PnP for Wow :)
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> Plitskin,  Plitskin  edit the menu.lst - it has a 'default' - grub starts counting at 0, so if yoiur windows was the 4th entry.. it would be default 3
[06:35] <bobbyd_> NigelS, I was trying onthe game I'm working on, but it seems it's becoming impossible for some complex reasons
[06:35] <thinkloop> I setup exim4 for my mail servr. I am trying to send emails to the mail server from other accounts (gmail, hotmail) and i get this error
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> Plitskin,  or 'Default saved" and it will rember the last entry you selected.
[06:35] <thinkloop> PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 9): 550 relay not permitted
[06:35] <NigelS> bobbyd_: the example I gave was for WoW :) and that memory issue that prevented right clicking with the mouse was there for a good few months - the lastest cedega version has new mem management so avoids it
[06:35] <fiendskull9> is it possivle to ghost image my linux partition, to restore whenh i want to?
[06:35] <mikael_> Hi, all my USB devices just disappeared after an upgrade? (my logitech wireless keyboard and mouse mostly) does anybody know if that might be because some modules weren't loaded-- I am running 2.6.15-19-amd64-k8
[06:35] <Frogzoo> B_166-ER-X: the file space won't be freed until all procs using those files release their file handles
[06:36] <Dr_Willis> fiendskull9,  'mond0/mindi' makes that fairly easy.
[06:36] <Dr_Willis> fiendskull9,  oops "Mondo" and "Mindi"
[06:36] <bobbyd_> NigelS, I've only used the latest version. I think they should say that it works with a specific version, and make sure they're not lying :)
[06:36] <Jimmey__> bluesign, I forgot how to check if the drivers worked..
[06:36] <Jimmey__> =-(
[06:36] <blueOrange> i know this is really basic, but i could use additional assistance if anyone is willing
[06:36] <fweemgar> HEY
[06:36] <Frogzoo> Jimmey__: look for /var/log/messages where the driver attaches to the hardware
[06:37] <fweemgar> Can anyone help me with a screen resolution problem?
[06:37] <Jimmey__> bluesign, what Frogzoo said
[06:37] <bluesign> Jimmey__: hmm thanks
[06:37] <bobbyd_> fweemgar, just ask the question
[06:37] <Frogzoo> !tell fweemgar about res
[06:37] <NigelS> blueOrange: when you say the make install command is not at your disposal - how so? with make installed now, there should be an "install" target inside the makefile which tells it where to put stuff; have you followed the steps before then though?
[06:37] <bobbyd_> Jimmey__, lsusb too
[06:37] <fweemgar> Oh,  all right
[06:37] <tjansson> fweemgar: look in the file xorg.conf in /etc/X11
[06:37] <AndyA> Greeter Application problem people... Ubuntu 5.10 amd64
[06:37] <taneli> I am just installing xorg-driver-fglrx for ATI Radeon X300 card and now it asks cards bus identifier...what should i put there...my card is at PCI-Express
[06:38] <NigelS> bobbyd_: heh yeah; in the few years I've subscribed I think the punkbuster issue is the only one to seriously annoy me
[06:38] <Plitskin> hmmm... this is gonna take a while to get used to...
[06:38] <bobbyd_> NigelS, yes, it's pretty stupid.
[06:38] <Sebischn> !bootlog
[06:38] <ubotu> Sebischn: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:38] <taneli> can someone help ? :)
[06:38] <fweemgar> Well, I am running umbuntu on a toshiba portege 7020CT.  The video adapter is a neomagic magicmedia 256
[06:38] <blueOrange> NigelS: i thought i went through all the steps but when i call the pgram, it says that command is not available.
[06:38] <wezzer> so is dapper going to be late?
[06:38] <sfar> whats the dapper channel?
[06:38] <Frogzoo> !helpme
[06:38] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[06:38] <fweemgar> The only resolution I can set the OS to is 640x480
[06:38] <NigelS> bobbyd_: I started the voting on PB months and months back - at the time I was annoyed about BF one!
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> sfar,  read the topic? :P
[06:39] <Jimmey__> sfar, #ubuntu+1
[06:39] <bobbyd_> NigelS, The game I'm working on is based on Unrel Engine 3, so technically we should be able to doa linux version, but we're using some closed source win32 libs which could scupper that idea
[06:39] <whyami> sfar: dapper is #ubuntu+1
[06:39] <fweemgar> And on winXP I set it to 1024x800
[06:39] <tjansson> I there any gnome native burner apps similar to k3b - the buildin nautilus is miserable.
[06:39] <AndyA> I'm asking a question... greeter application error
[06:39] <NigelS> bobbyd_: but they never acknowledged it as an issue; even with it being towards the top of the voting ranks for months upon end
[06:39] <Frogzoo> tjansson: would you believe....k3b ?
[06:39] <kergoth> anyone using cedega under dapper? entire box hangs when trying to run world of warcraft under it :(
[06:39] <bobbyd_> NigelS, it's poor
[06:39] <bobbyd_> NigelS, it's the only thing that's made me think of unsubscribing
[06:39] <sfar> thanks whyami :)
[06:40] <fweemgar> How do I run/use xorg?
[06:40] <thinkloop> anyone got exim4 setup?
[06:40] <AndyA> and I'm still not getting any hekp... Patience is a virtue
[06:40] <erez_> tjansson: gnomebaker
[06:40] <fiendskull9> yay
[06:40] <NigelS> bobbyd_: yeah same here - that same annoying advice in the changelogs saying that we should update it was starting to get to me :P
[06:40] <fiendskull9> my logitech cam works finally
[06:40] <deizi> how the hell you get bitcomet to work?
[06:40] <hengx_> anyone using wifi-radar?
[06:40] <tjansson> Frogzoo: :D - what im using now - but just thought that not all gnome was happy with that bulidin thing -Just converted after 4 years with KDE
[06:40] <ASTX813> WOW, bobbyd_ , I was WAY too tired last night and made a major retarded mistake!
[06:40] <Ribs> fweemgar: sudo dpkg-reconfigure something...
[06:40] <bobbyd_> fweemgar, you need to set up your monitor settings in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:40] <patrick52222> hello im having problems running limewire i have installed it and java to run but when i click limewire it doesnt run
[06:40] <iocaste> i've seen in multiple forums that if you're having problems with sound using the ALI 5451 chipset, you should disable 'Jack Sense' in Alsamixer, however there is no slider for 'Jack Sense' in alsa mixer. Can anyone help?
[06:40] <Ribs> just trying to remember what the 'something' part is
[06:40] <whyami> fweemgar: have you done dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[06:40] <bobbyd_> ASTX813, :)
[06:40] <blueOrange> AndyA: hang in there! somone will help u eventually ! :)
[06:40] <Ribs> I have the same issue on my tecra
[06:40] <fweemgar> no, I have no
[06:40] <NigelS> blueOrange: ok, are you sure that there wasn't an error along the way? what were the steps you took and what output did you get?
[06:40] <fweemgar> not*
[06:40] <fweemgar> I don't know how
[06:41] <Joetheodd> fweemgar: sudo dpkg-reconfigure server-xorg
[06:41] <fweemgar> I'm a total linux n00b
[06:41] <Ribs> fweemgar: Are you using Breezy?
[06:41] <fweemgar> yessir
[06:41] <bobbyd_> patrick52222, run it from a shell
[06:41] <fiendskull9> patrick52222, did you create the launcher yourself?
[06:41] <fweemgar> I run that in the command prompt?
[06:41] <Dj_RapRap> I tried to change my hostname in /etc/hosts, when i did it, i keep getting this error: "sudo: unable to lookup dhcppc1 via gethostbyname()
[06:41] <Dj_RapRap> " - no matter what i do, any suggesstions?
[06:41] <AndyA> I'll die eventually, too.
[06:41] <ASTX813> bobbyd_, I have ATI Radeon!  Last night someone with my same laptop put me on this path, but I guess he has a different configuration than I do
[06:41] <Joetheodd> fweemgar: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (spelling correction)
[06:41] <patrick52222> how do i run it from shell
[06:41] <bobbyd_> ASTX813, LOL
[06:41] <bobbyd_> patrick52222, open a shell, type the name of the program (probably limewire)
[06:41] <patrick52222> i used the launcher from applications--->internet
[06:42] <bobbyd_> patrick52222, by the way, azureus is good and works out of the box
[06:42] <protoloco> I have a FTP server that i can just upload/download files in my USER directory, hhow can i tell VSFTPD that i wanna upload files in root apache page /var/www/html/ , in there i wanna upload files
[06:42] <ASTX813> I'm so pissed at myself.  People in here were telling me to go to bed and I refused cuz I thought for sure I'd get it
[06:42] <blueOrange> NigelS: I did: "sudo apt-get install make" resulted in: "
[06:42] <blueOrange> opops didnt mean to push <return> :)
[06:42] <Dj_RapRap> I tried to change my hostname in /etc/hosts, when i did it, i keep getting this error: "sudo: unable to lookup dhcppc1 via gethostbyname()" - no matter what i do, any suggesstions ?
[06:42] <iocaste> how do i disable 'Jack Sense' in sound config?
[06:42] <NigelS> I love azuereus - such clever data visualisation displays - I like the swarm view :)
[06:42] <Jimmey__> protoloco, you can tell Apache to set the DocumentRoot to /home/ftp, perhaps
[06:42] <_tcc> What do I need to dual boot windows and linux?
[06:42] <gimmulf> How do i get nvidia-xconfig  ?
[06:43] <patrick52222> where do i get azureus  from
[06:43] <gimmulf> i need to run that
[06:43] <Jimmey__> _tcc, an ubuntu install CD.
[06:43] <Jimmey__> _tcc, and a Windows installation.
[06:43] <_tcc> No crap lol.
[06:43] <_tcc> But how?
[06:43] <NigelS> limewire isn't a BT client though is it?
[06:43] <bobbyd_> NigelS, oh. :)
[06:43] <NigelS> :)
[06:43] <Frogzoo> _tcc: typically grub - but lilo can handle this, perhaps not as intuitively
[06:43] <patrick52222> no it isnt thats why i want limewire
[06:43] <bobbyd_> patrick52222, limewire is evil :)
[06:43] <Dr_Willis> !azureus
[06:43] <ubotu> somebody said azureus was a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[06:43] <Jimmey__> _tcc, the install procedure asks if you want a dual boot. You got to press enter a few times, and tell it how many GBs Ubuntu can have.
[06:43] <Plitskin> there's no save button or ctrl + s in vi?
[06:43] <bobbyd_> patrick52222, but you should try to run it from a sheel to see where it goes wrong
[06:44] <gimmulf> Where do i get nvidia-xconfig  ?
[06:44] <gimmulf> need to configure xorg
[06:44] <bobbyd_> Plitskin, don't use VI, it's crazy, use nano
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> Plitskin,  spend an hr and read a vi tutotial or 2   'vimtutor' is an itneractive one.
[06:44] <Frogzoo> Plitskin: esc : wq
[06:44] <_tcc> Jimmey__, install procedure?
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> Plitskin,  learning vi is worth the hassle. :P
[06:44] <patrick52222> in the shell do i just put limewire and enter
[06:44] <Kuyaedz> can anyone tell me the app (gnome) responsible for keyboard recognition including hardware keys (volume, etc)
[06:44] <blueOrange> NigelS: I did: "sudo apt-get install make" resulted in: "reading packages lists...done    building dependency tree . .. done new packages insatlled: make" . . . . . "setting up make"
[06:44] <bobbyd_> Plitskin, learning VI isnt' worth the hassle ;)
[06:44] <Plitskin> ok guys, thanks
[06:44] <_tcc> I have 200 Gigs
[06:44] <NigelS> blueOrange: ok, so you installed make - what next?
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> bobbyd_,  Blasphmy!
[06:44] <Frogzoo> bobbyd_: LIES!!
[06:45] <_tcc> So I will allocate like 100 to ubuntu and 100 to winXp.
[06:45] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, oh come on, it's nonsense
[06:45] <_tcc> But....I am on ubuntu right now...so how can I install windows?
[06:45] <Frogzoo> !start an editor war
[06:45] <ubotu> kate is a much better editor than emacs.
[06:45] <Jimmey__> _tcc I've got 40. Damn you!
[06:45] <_tcc> hehe
[06:45] <blueOrange> NigelS: makeinstall ?
[06:45] <Johannesen> anyone using wifi-radar?
[06:45] <bobbyd_> Dr3as, Frogzoo: kdevelop is where it's at :)
[06:45] <_tcc> Games run like crap on Linux.
[06:45] <Dr_Willis> bobbyd_,  not really. I can do things with it faster then any other editor ive tried.. and its the defacto tool on minimal rescue/live cd's so when the chips are down.. odds are you will need to know the basics of vi.
[06:46] <NigelS> blueOrange: two separate words "make install" but quite often there's more to be done first; often "make" on its own
[06:46] <ssam> there are vi cheat sheets on the net, if you print out one of those then vim is easy(ish)
[06:46] <AndyA> amd64 -> ubuntu 5.10 -> Greeter application crashing error....
[06:46] <patrick52222> how do i run limewire in a shell
[06:46] <blueOrange> NigelS: ps i never did a .configure as that file is not listed in the directory.
[06:46] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, I've been using linux for 7 years and I've never needed to know vi
[06:46] <gimmulf> Where do i get nvidia-xconfig  ?
[06:46] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, oh yeah, and it smells of wee :)
[06:46] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, have you tried scite? or slickedit?
[06:47] <NigelS> Stallman doesn't know how to use vi I think :)
[06:47] <NigelS> but then he wouldn't
[06:47] <ssam> the trouble with nano is that i still do :wq instinctivly and it gets left in the file
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> bobbyd_,  you are proberly actually using Linspire. and ive been using Linux for 30 years!
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> ssam,  :P been there... done that.
[06:47] <eggzeck> vi > nano
[06:47] <patrick52222> how do i run limewire in a shell
[06:47] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, ahh, so you've been using it longer, therefore you're right! heh
[06:47] <NigelS> patrick52222: you type the name of the program, then press enter
[06:48] <AndyA> gimmulf I probably know less than you, but since no one is paying attention... You get it in console, right?
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> bobbyd_,  that was your logic as well.. Plus everyone knows that real men use sed!
[06:48] <fallen1> has anyone had dapper start crashing at xwin startup
[06:48] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, and, um linux hasn't been around 30 years, but I've been using it for 50!
[06:48] <ssam> anyway real men take the case off there hard disk and edit files with a magnet
[06:48] <gimmulf> AndyA: ?
[06:48] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, no, my logic was that vi smells of weewee
[06:48] <loco_gr> Hello
[06:48] <arkanis> hi
[06:48] <ASTX813> fallen1, everyone's had that at some point i think.  check /var/log/Xorg.0.log for errors (EE)
[06:49] <michaelb> Hey there -- I have a question: I'm having trouble reformatting a hard disk using gnome's "disks" gui tool.
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> bobbyd_,  i think its a "PEKAC" problem. :P
[06:49] <sudomania4> are the ubuntu forums down?
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> oops PEBKAC...
[06:49] <NigelS> :P
[06:49] <ssam> sudomania4, i think so
[06:49] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, I think it's a 1D10T problem!
[06:49] <ASTX813> sudomania4, i think so, i'm out too
[06:49] <ssam> michaelb, try gparted
[06:49] <loco_gr> I try to access the ubuntuforum.com and it goes really slow
[06:49] <bobbyd_> Dr_Willis, and you missed a "B" in pebkac
[06:49] <arkanis> I'am new to linux and I wanted to install ubuntu, but everytime I try it fails at the base install
[06:49] <sudomania4> yeah, why are they down?
[06:49] <bobbyd_> arkanis, what does it say?
[06:50] <fallen1> has anyone had dapper start crashing at xwin startup
[06:50] <Frogzoo> !tell arkanis about fixinstall
[06:50] <ssam> sudomania4, no the forum seems to be back now
[06:50] <_jason> !dapper
[06:50] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> fallen1,  not lately.
[06:50] <arkanis> It says that I should check the bootstrap something
[06:50] <loco_gr> sudomania4, are you sure ??
[06:50] <fweemgar> How do I configure my neomagic magicmedia 256 to run at a higher resolution (than 640x480)?  I can't get anywhere with the screen resolution selector.
[06:50] <Johannesen> do I need to bring my wireless lan up in /etc/network/interfaces when I use wifi-radar and wpa_supplicant?
[06:50] <arkanis> but I can't find a file with that name
[06:50] <fallen1> did it in the past
[06:50] <AndyA> I'm willing to sell half of my brain for an advice on solving the Greeter application error on Ubuntu 5.10 amd64.
[06:50] <NigelS> fallen1: do you get kicked back to gdm login screen or the X server crashes completely?
[06:50] <bobbyd_> arkanis, what's machine is it? CPU memory HD?
[06:50] <fallen1> complete
[06:51] <ssam> arkanis, there could be a problem with the install cd
[06:51] <MetaMorfoziS> i'm installed opera on my notebook
[06:51] <arkanis> very old: 500mhz, 1Gbyte RAM, 8Gbyte HD
[06:51] <fallen1> it dies when starting gdm
[06:51] <sudomania4> there back up
[06:51] <NigelS> fallen1: read through the log - it's not crashin most probs it's just not succeeeding in starting
[06:51] <MetaMorfoziS> but it doesn't start
[06:51] <ssam> AndyA, did you try the forum?
[06:51] <arkanis> Dell Latitude
[06:51] <MetaMorfoziS> i'm downlaoded the deb form opera.com
[06:51] <fweemgar> How do I configure my neomagic magicmedia 256 to run at a higher resolution (than 640x480)?  I can't get anywhere with the screen resolution selector.
[06:51] <MetaMorfoziS> but when istart it it said segment error
[06:51] <bobbyd_> arkanis, does the live CD work? or the dapper one?
[06:51] <fallen1> machine locks solid
[06:51] <fweemgar> ...and xorg didn't help, either
[06:51] <MetaMorfoziS> anybody help me please
[06:51] <arkanis> live cd?
[06:52] <ssam> !fixres
[06:52] <ubotu> Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:52] <fweemgar> okay
[06:52] <MetaMorfoziS> !opera
[06:52] <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
[06:52] <bobbyd_> fweemgar, set the right numbers for the refresh rate of your monitor in xorg.conf
[06:52] <arkanis> I just have the install cd
[06:52] <NigelS> fallen1: weird; not happening on mine with latest stuff (nvidia drivers, xgl etc)
[06:52] <bobbyd_> fweemgar, google for your laptop model number and "ubunt"
[06:52] <thinkloop> mutt's defaulting to /var/mail/krypto everytime for every user. How do i change it so when each user uses mutt it goes to /var/mail/%username%
[06:52] <arkanis> downloaded it yesterday from here: http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/ubuntu-cdimage/5.10/
[06:52] <fallen1> everything was fine until a recent update
[06:53] <bobbyd_> arkanis, if yo ahve the bandwidth, try the live cd

[06:53] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[06:53] <NigelS> fallen1: what changed in that update? what drivers are you using? have you tried defaulting back to basic ones etc?
[06:53] <ASTX813> !radeon
[06:53] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ASTX813
[06:53] <arkanis> so, when the live-cd works, what then?
[06:53] <fallen1> it was a large update

[06:54] <j2daosh> hey... question about computer hardware... anyone in here savvy?
[06:54] <Cyorxamp> Hey folks..... I have -no- ttyUSB in /dev     -  I need them.. badly.. lsusb can see the fact I have 5 usb ports - how can I get my ttyUSB's ?!!?
[06:55] <j2daosh> Cyorxamp, what do you need a ttyusb for?
[06:55] <Cyorxamp> j2daosh, USB devices - what do you think
[06:56] <ASTX813> Forums back up, maybe
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> wow.. such a clear and percice answer.. :P
[06:56] <arkanis> bobbyd_ what can I do, when the life cd works?
[06:56] <mattwestm> how do I get jsp support on apache?
[06:56] <j2daosh> lol dr
[06:56] <arkanis> I still have no clue what the problem is
[06:56] <patrick52222> is it posible to install KDE on ubuntu dapper drake and still be able to use the gnome desktop
[06:56] <Cyorxamp> j2daosh: it's a program called gnokii that can communicate with a nokia phone over USB.
[06:56] <NickGarvey> !kde
[06:56] <ubotu> kde is, like, A powerful, free desktop environment for UNIX. IRC: #kubuntu #kde ; install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ; ISOs: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/breezy/
[06:56] <j2daosh> oh ok... now i gotcha
[06:56] <j2daosh> i was like... plug it in...
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> patrick52222,  yes. trivially easy.
[06:57] <NickGarvey> yeah, I have 3 envis
[06:57] <AndyA> it just came to me..... i'll never get an answer here.. Bye
[06:57] <patrick52222> Dr_willis: could you give me a link or tell me how to
[06:57] <dg> does anyone know how to get automounting of usb devices working? I installed via debootstrap so I'm probably missing some package/configuration
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> patrick52222,  check the kubuntu homepage  :) you install them all with apt-get and the login screen has a menu to pick what to use.
[06:58] <j2daosh> ok well if it is anything like my jump drive i have connected, or my samsung t809, just plugging it in should sufice
[06:58] <crimsun> dg: for a gnome environment?
[06:58] <dg> i'm using kde..
[06:58] <BlueOrange> gideon@G-ubuntu:~/atitvout$ make
[06:58] <BlueOrange> cc -Wall -O2 -g -DVERSION=\"0.4\" -I./lrmi-0.6   -c -o atitvout.o atitvout.c
[06:58] <BlueOrange> make: cc: Command not found
[06:58] <BlueOrange> make: *** [atitvout.o]  Error 127
[06:58] <ruzgar> hello how can i unmount and remount all of my drives without restarting my pc?
[06:58] <patrick52222> ok thanks will try
[06:58] <j2daosh> assuming ur ubuntu is setup default it should detect and mount automagically
[06:58] <crimsun> dg: installing kubuntu-desktop will pull in everything necessary
[06:58] <NigelS> BlueOrange: you don't have a compiler :)
[06:59] <NigelS> BlueOrange: install gcc - though I think there's a build-essentials package or some such for getting a lot of stuff
[06:59] <dg> crimsun: I did, it pops up a dialog when the disk is plugged in but it doesn't successfully mount the disk
[06:59] <BlueOrange> NigelS: y not!? that sounds bad! is it not part of the default ubuntu install !?
[06:59] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[06:59] <patrick52222> can some one give me the link to the kubuntu website
[06:59] <j2daosh> BlueOrange, sudo apt-get install gcc;sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[07:00] <j2daosh> essential
[07:00] <Frogzoo> NigelS: BlueOrange 'build-essential'
[07:00] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, no, not every one needs to or wants to compile, so no real need to put on cd
[07:00] <sebastian> I got a .vmx file, but instead of it being a .vmx file it is a .txt file.  anyone know how I can solve this problem?
[07:00] <BlueOrange> ah, thxs all, working on it . . .
[07:00] <NigelS> BlueOrange: no it isn't part of the default install. Tbh I think if you don't recognise an error saying there's no compiler the reasoning is that you prob don't want a compiler :)
[07:00] <BlueOrange> lol
[07:00] <tristanmike> patrick52222, http://www.kubuntu.org/
[07:00] <BlueOrange> but its the only way to install this additional code, right ?
[07:01] <kergoth> gah, i wish fglrx would stop panicing
[07:01] <NigelS> BlueOrange: I don't know I don't use an ATI card and haven't had this problem
[07:01] <_tcc> Can someone help me in allocating space for winXP?
[07:01] <Frogzoo> kergoth: do you know/use the _seveas repo fglrx?
[07:01] <Jimmey__> _tcc, ?
[07:01] <NigelS> _tcc: sure, I have a black sack here somewhere
[07:02] <kergoth> Frogzoo: dont know of it, what is it?
[07:02] <_tcc> I mean with qtparted or something.
[07:02] <Frogzoo> !seveas
[07:02] <ubotu> Seveas has a semi-popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[07:02] <_tcc> I don't want to do anything stupid.
[07:02] <thinkloop> if i want to .tar up a whole folder how would i do that?
[07:02] <deizi> what programs REALLY works on wine?
[07:02] <Frogzoo> kergoth: including the 8.22.5 fglrx
[07:02] <ruzgar> anyone help me?
[07:02] <_tcc> tar cvvf file.tar dir/
[07:03] <segphault_> I want to make my Nautilus default folder size 75% but have my desktop folder size be 100%... is there a way to set desktop folder size independently
[07:03] <ruzgar> is there a way to unmount and remount all drivers without restarting my pc?
[07:03] <BlueOrange> sudo apt-get install gcc worked. but sudo apt-get install build-essentials resulted: "sudo apt-get install build-essentials" .
[07:03] <No_ThAnKs> hello, i have the error message "unable to copy the users's X autorization file" when i try to open synaptic...Does anyone know what it is ? Many Thanks
[07:04] <NigelS> BlueOrange: in the singu;ar
[07:04] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, "build-essential"  no "s"
[07:04] <NigelS> singular*
[07:04] <Plitskin> oh God this could get very uncomfortable... :-(
[07:04] <mattwestm> how do I install support for jsp pages?
[07:04] <BlueOrange> (oops) resulted in "E: Couldn't find package build-essentials
[07:04] <BlueOrange> "
[07:04] <BlueOrange> ah
[07:04] <gimmulf> Where do i get nvidia-xconfig  ?
[07:05] <michaelb> ssam: Big thanks, man! I tried qtparted, with no luck, but gparted seemed to do the trick! Everything is working 100% smoothly now!
[07:05] <_tcc> Anyone?
[07:05] <segphault_> gimmulf: you need the nvidia-glx package
[07:05] <BlueOrange> ok great, thxs . . . progress . . .
[07:05] <_tcc> I need help in allocating space for a winXP install.
[07:05] <tristanmike> 15 gig
[07:06] <gimmulf> segphault_:  i have it
[07:06] <_tcc> I mean the actual process.
[07:06] <gimmulf> segphault_:  bash: nvidia-xconfiig: command not found
[07:06] <segphault_> gimmulf: it puts the utility in /usr/bin/nvidia-xconfig
[07:06] <NigelS> gimmulf: typo etc
[07:07] <NigelS> _tcc: well do you have a free partition? assuming my offer of a bin wasn't good enough
[07:07] <Yoric> Does anyone have a suggestion on how to upgrade to linux-image-2.6.15-19-686 without breaking my whole system ?
[07:07] <gimmulf> segphault_:  hmm i dont have it there just nvidia-settings
[07:07] <gimmulf> NigelS:  what?
[07:07] <tristanmike> _tcc, if you have windows, get something like partition magic, make some free space, install Ubuntu on said free space
[07:08] <NigelS> gimmulf: typo - i.e. a typographical error - you made one, you typed the command incorrectly
[07:08] <crimsun> Yoric: on a breezy system? You'd need the udev from dapper, too, and you'd need to remove hotplug.
[07:08] <iguanatech> good afternon everybody
[07:08] <_tcc> I have ubuntu installed.
[07:08] <crimsun> Yoric: in other words, it's much more reliable just to grab dapper flight 5 and dist-upgrade
[07:08] <_tcc> I want to just make a windows partition, I need help with that.
[07:08] <iguanatech> excuseme i cant read my diskete device
[07:08] <Yoric> crimsun, yes, this is a breezy system.
[07:08] <Yoric> crimsun, can you detail the process / point me to a howto ?
[07:09] <Frogzoo> !tell _tcc about windows
[07:09] <birdfish> I've installed apache2 webserver on my ubuntu server
[07:09] <birdfish> However, when I try to start it, I get an error
[07:09] <Yoric> sudo apt-get upgrade be sufficient ?
[07:09] <thinkloop> anyone ever get this error PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 9): 550 relay not permitted
[07:09] <_tcc> right
[07:09] <Yoric> that is, "would sudo apt-get upgrade be sufficient ?"
[07:09] <crimsun> Yoric: for dist-upgrading to dapper, or for pulling in those packages from dapper?
[07:09] <Frogzoo> !tell _tcc about mountwindows
[07:09] <Yoric> crimsun, well, to get a bootable system with these packages.

[07:10] <Alexi5> it seems ubuntu is not very good with laptops
[07:10] <birdfish> Anyone know why I get this error?
[07:10] <_tcc> or games
[07:10] <_tcc> lol
[07:10] <Yoric> I don't know if have to dist-upgrade for that.
[07:10] <Frogzoo> birdfish: ps aux |grep http
[07:10] <birdfish> Frogzoo: thanks :)
[07:10] <crimsun> Yoric: you'd need to recompile udev from dapper on your breezy system, remove hotplug, and install the newer kernel from dapper
[07:10] <BlueOrange> NigelS: (all) please see my paste
[07:10] <Yoric> Alexi5, currently, I'm having trouble getting it to boot on my laptop.
[07:10] <NigelS> _tcc: I assume you're talking about games *written for* windows? :P

[07:11] <sebastian> 1
[07:11] <btdown> booya
[07:11] <sebastian> 1
[07:11] <Yoric> I think it's a bot.
[07:11] <_tcc> yay
[07:11] <btdown> i always wanted to do that....
[07:11] <Frogzoo> that was quick
[07:11] <gimmulf> segphault_:  hmm i dont have it there just nvidia-settings
[07:11] <_tcc> No, I mean I want to dual boot.
[07:11] <_tcc> Windows and Ubuntu.
[07:11] <_tcc> I want to just add a partition to install on.
[07:12] <_tcc> Can someone help with that?
[07:12] <Yoric> crimsun, do you suggest dist-upgrading or recompiling udev from dapper ?
[07:12] <NigelS> gimmulf: did you type the command correctly this time?
[07:12] <crimsun> Yoric: dist-upgrading at this point.
[07:12] <Yoric> ok
[07:12] <NigelS> _tcc: so atm you don't have a free partition or an area of unpartitioned space?
[07:12] <gnomefreak> Yoric: dapper related questions please see #ubuntu+1
[07:12] <Yoric> gnomefreak, ok
[07:12] <_tcc> NigelS, no that is what I am trying to do.
[07:12] <ASTX813> Well that sucked
[07:12] <Blippe> _tcc, if you have the place the installer will partion the harddrive all by itself (after asking you)
[07:13] <birdfish> Frogzoo: grep returned no results.  I then tried to start apache2 again, but got the same error
[07:13] <gimmulf> NigelS:   sudo /usr/sbin/nvidia-glx-config   tells me to: Usage: /usr/sbin/nvidia-glx-config [enable|disable]  &  sudo /usr/sbin/nvidia-glx-config enable says: http://pastebin.com/621923
[07:13] <lafferpt> grep stands for what?
[07:13] <_tcc> Windows will make its own partition?
[07:13] <NigelS> _tcc: well the problem there is that I don't think there's a tool in gnome etc that lets you *resize* an ext/reiser partition.  partition magic might though
[07:14] <BlueOrange> NigelS: u see my paste ?
[07:14] <Frogzoo> birdfish: you've got something running on that port already, maybe apache?
[07:14] <NigelS> BlueOrange: no?
[07:14] <birdfish> Frogzoo: It is a clean install of both ubuntu-server and apache2
[07:15] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, on pastebin? you must paste the link here for us
[07:15] <Frogzoo> birdfish: telnet localhost 80
[07:15] <birdfish> Frogzoo: I have done nothing to either (except apt-get apache2 and try to start it)
[07:15] <BlueOrange> NigelS: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10765
[07:15] <Frogzoo> birdfish: or just point your browser at it...
[07:15] <ASTX813> Trying to install my new video driver, did a dpkg reconfig xserver-xorg, but it wants to comepletely redo my whole xorg setup when all I want to do is switch my display.  Plus it crashed when it tried probing my lcd
[07:16] <ghanthar> hi everyone
[07:16] <_tcc> lets see...
[07:16] <ASTX813> Is there a way to get dpkg to only reconfigure one section of xorg?
[07:16] <NigelS> gimmulf: you were after the nvidia-config tool yes? I have the ubuntu nvidia packages and it's there
[07:16] <Cyorxamp> should pl2303 make a ttyUSB0 whatever usb 'thing' is plugged in?
[07:16] <birdfish> Frogzoo: I used "telnet localhost 80" on the server.  And I'm connected
[07:16] <NigelS> gimmulf: *nvidia-xconfig
[07:16] <ghanthar> is there anybody who could solve the keyboard prob on dapper
[07:17] <Frogzoo> birdfish: well try "GET /"
[07:17] <neighborlee> is it just my hardware combo giving it grief or has anyone else seen dapper livecd's installer not quite work yet ? (    wont format ext3 right and  gives errors as a result)
[07:17] <gimmulf> NigelS:  sudo: nvidia-xconfig: command not found
[07:17] <gnomefreak> ghanthar: dapper channel is #ubuntu+1 please use that for dapper related issue oh and i havent heard of a keyboard issue in dapper
[07:18] <birdfish> Frogzoo: actually, I just typed the ip of the server and :80.  It sent me to a directory where I clicked on "apache2-default" which sent me to the apache page.
[07:18] <arkanis> I'am a bit confused. I read that you can specify the vga (when you install) for example 792 for 1024x768
[07:18] <idefix> if I use "Save As" in some linux program, can I just type ./subdirectory/filename?
[07:18] <BlueOrange> NigelS: im afraid i need to go now :( just when we were getting somewhere !
[07:18] <arkanis> but I have only code 0 to 7 (0F00 t0 0100)
[07:18] <ghanthar> thanks gnomefreak and sorry and did not know that the dapper chan was different
[07:18] <gimmulf> NigelS:  and i have nvidia-settings, nvidia-kernel-common, nvidia-glx packages installed
[07:18] <Cyorxamp> should pl2303 make a ttyUSB0 whatever usb 'thing' is plugged in?
[07:18] <lafferpt> how do I install an english hash dictionary?
[07:19] <BlueOrange> NigelS: il will leave my window open, so if u get a change, please review my paste and give me any next step advice u see fit.  THANK YOU ALL! May the electron g-ds continue to smile upon you!
[07:19] <NickGarvey> idefix: I see no reason why not.. only one way to find out though eh?
[07:20] <idefix> NickGarvey, 'cause it doesn't work!
[07:20] <gimmulf> NigelS:  i only find /usr/sbin/nvidia-glx-config
[07:20] <NigelS> gimmulf: have you install nvidia-xconfig though?
[07:20] <idefix> error accessing 'file:///subdirectory/filename': File not found
[07:21] <gimmulf> NigelS: cant find it in synaptic
[07:21] <NickGarvey> I guess . refers to / then
[07:21] <idefix> NickGarvey... it works!!
[07:22] <luckyshot> i have a dlink usb network adapter.... how would ubuntu recognize it??
[07:22] <leif_> hey all, how do i add /usr/local/lib to my lib path ?+
[07:22] <kergoth> argh. fglrx needs to stop panicing when i run wow in cedega :(
[07:23] <gimmulf> NigelS:  really cant find it, been searching on nvidia in synaptic but it doesnt show up, also added like all respitorys
[07:23] <luckyshot> i have a dlink usb network adapter.... how would ubuntu recognize it??
[07:23] <NigelS> gimmulf: hmm, I think nvidia-xconfig was a recent addition by nvidia - the program is in dapper but not in breezy I think
[07:23] <NigelS> gimmulf: what do you need it to do?
[07:23] <gimmulf> NigelS:  i have nvidia-settings
[07:23] <Yoric> Well, actually, it turns out that my pcmcia oops appears even with a 386 kernel...
[07:24] <idefix> cool, the GAIM conversation timeout time is exactly 1:01 minute
[07:24] <gimmulf> NigelS:  i need to get an xorg.conf with twinview.. been trying for 5 hours :)
[07:24] <idefix> it occurs over and over again
[07:24] <NigelS> gimmulf: nvidia settings isn't about setting up the xserver though
[07:24] <NigelS> gimmulf: your best bet is not to use a program - just go and read the manual on the nvidia site and edit your xorg.conf file accordingly
[07:24] <zipper|> hmm, for some reason i have no trouble connecting to freenode from mirc on my windows box, but my linux box with xchat-gnome simply cannot connect? "connection timed out" every time
[07:24] <gimmulf> realised that, really would like that nvidia-xconfig tool
[07:24] <gimmulf> NigelS:  thats what i've tried
[07:25] <lafferpt> does anyone got a portuguese servers sources.list?
[07:26] <NigelS> gimmulf: really? you've followed the instructions and it won't work?  you know you can just download that program from the nvidia site don't you?
[07:26] <NigelS> gimmulf: or install your own drivers even if you so wish
[07:27] <whyami> when I run vlc from the command line, all this garbage prints in the terminal window. Why is this happening?
[07:27] <crimsun> whyami: ...because that's the way vlc works.
[07:27] <NigelS> gimmulf: e.g http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/nvidia-xconfig/nvidia-xconfig-1.0.tar.gz
[07:27] <crimsun> whyami: want more spew? use -vvv
[07:28] <NigelS> gimmulf: and you followed: http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8178/README/appendix-g.html ?
[07:29] <Plitskin> hi are there any predefined shortcut keys such as how I bring up the terminal window or shutdown the computer in Ubuntu?
[07:30] <gimmulf> i dont want to read 5 pages to get my monitors running, i just want to run a program and get t running in 1 minute without beeing some kind of rocket science professor.. so fxxxxxing tired of it now but i guess i should read that shit :(
[07:30] <gimmulf> guess i should get windows :)
[07:30] <doubletwist> Anyone successfully connect two computers together using eth1394? [firewire] 
[07:30] <michaelb> Plitskin: try going to System-preferences-keyboard shortcuts
[07:31] <Plitskin> yes!
[07:31] <doubletwist> When I connect my ubuntu box to a debian box, everything works fine, but the instant I try to ping from the ubuntu box, it hard-freezes, and I have to reset.
[07:31] <Plitskin> I was finally able to do it
[07:31] <Plitskin> vi wasn't so hard to learn after all :)
[07:31] <Plitskin> uhmm... vim
[07:31] <bobyfixer> any one compiled mechcommander 2 under linux ?!!!!
[07:31] <NigelS> gimmulf: I gave you a link to the program! maybe if you'd had some kind of initiative from the start you wouldn't have spent 5 hours doing it!  Reading isn't a think to  balk at either; it's how you get to understand what something is doing
[07:32] <Plitskin> michaelb - thanks I'll take a look
[07:32] <gimmulf> NigelS:  a link would be great, i dont want to understand how it works i just want to use it :)
[07:32] <doubletwist> I also tried between windows and debian, but still can't ping between them. The debian box [connected to windows]  gives a bunch of entries in dmesg: "sender nodeid lookup failure"
[07:33] <JoeMorris> how come ubuntu is the most active
[07:33] <JoeMorris> on freenode, always people here :)
[07:33] <NickGarvey> www.distrowatch.com
[07:33] <gimmulf> NigelS:  didnt find a link to the software there
[07:33] <NickGarvey> look at the hpd compared to others
[07:33] <michaelb> JoeMorris: because Ubuntu is one of the most popular distros...
[07:33] <cycus_zwisus> JoeMorris, ubuntu is the easiest distro on earth, that's why :)
[07:33] <JoeMorris> cycus:  Not really
[07:34] <zipper> !nvidia
[07:34] <ubotu> I heard nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[07:34] <michaelb> cycus: except for linspire, mepis, and pclinuxos
[07:34] <sebastian> test
[07:34] <JoeMorris> cycus:  Dapper isnt final yet so maybe when it hits final
[07:34] <gnomefreak> easy depends on who you are and what you know
[07:34] <JoeMorris> cycus but breezy is behind fedore core 5
[07:34] <sebastian> .vmx file is created by putting the stuff in a text editor.  and saving it as filename.vmx.  ,but my .vmx files Linux thinks are .txt and so they won't work
[07:34] <JoeMorris> or whatever the current version is
[07:34] <sebastian> anyone know how to solove this problem?
[07:34] <cycus_zwisus> michaelb, these are not linuxes
[07:34] <Karmander> I need help for the configuration of my mouse
[07:34] <HOEHAVER> hey during the last step of the install for ubuntu5.10 if all of the packages dont get to configure because lets say someone pressed alt ctrl delete
[07:35] <ubuntu__> bye
[07:35] <HOEHAVER> how would you start the configuration process over
[07:35] <Karmander> Anybody knows why Ubuntu couldn't detect my mouse??
[07:35] <JoeMorris> see
[07:35] <john_linux_newbi> Hi guys Bug Buddy wants to know the path to send mail.  I have no idea how to find the path.  Can anyone help?
[07:35] <HOEHAVER> with out reinstalling the whole thing
[07:35] <JoeMorris> ubuntu needs some fixin
[07:35] <JoeMorris> karmander which version?
[07:35] <cycus_zwisus> they are a mix of windows and linux
[07:35] <sebastian> your  mouse is possibly not compatible
[07:35] <Karmander> JoeMorris 5.1
[07:35] <JoeMorris> ok what mouse?
[07:36] <majd> Hey, i'm having two small problems. The Eject button my cd/dvd players don't work, i have to right click on desktop and then eject from there. Secondly, whenever i restart, Num Lock is off...why?
[07:36] <Karmander> JoeMorris Genius serial port
[07:36] <sethrd> If I use GARnome to get 2.14, will it get all the deps for me?
[07:36] <Joetheodd> JoeMorris, use dapper if you want bleeding edge technology.
[07:36] <sebastian> I think the having to eject the CD's from Linux is normal
[07:36] <HOEHAVER> _jason can you help
[07:36] <HOEHAVER> maybe?
[07:36] <detunedwarlock> Ubuntu and ATI not working please help! followed 3 guides and reconfigured xorg.conf, still can't make it work
[07:36] <JoeMorris> joetheodd i did, was installing and testing some new distros
[07:36] <cycus_zwisus> ati drivers
[07:36] <JoeMorris> dapper is nice
[07:37] <JoeMorris> suse is nice, fedora is nice
[07:37] <Xenguy> majd: IIRC the numlock issue is covered on the wiki somewhere
[07:37] <detunedwarlock> downloaded those too cycus
[07:37] <JoeMorris> each in their own ways
[07:37] <Joetheodd> majd: numlock is a bios problem, I believe. As for the CD, type eject /mnt/cdrom0 (to unmount and then open drive)
[07:37] <NigelS> gimmulf: 18:26 < NigelS> gimmulf: e.g http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/nvidia-xconfig/nvidia-xconfig-1.0.tar.gz
[07:37] <sethrd> If I use GARnome to get GNOME 2.14, will it get all the deps for me?
[07:37] <john_linux_newbi> Bug Buddy wants to know the path to send mail.  I have no idea how to find the path.  Can anyone help?
[07:37] <detunedwarlock> nothing is giving me direct render
[07:37] <michaelb> cycus_zwisus: see http://www.pclinuxos.com/ , http://www.mepis.org/ , and http://www.linspire.com/ -- I'm not sure what you mean by a mix of linux and windows, but maybe that will clear things up
[07:37] <majd> JoeMorris, Xenguy cool thanks
[07:37] <Alexi5> how do you guys rate intel new intel duo core processors
[07:38] <lafferpt> where can I find the original mirror repositories for my country?
[07:38] <sethrd> Alexi5: They are awesome.
[07:38] <Xenguy> !tell majd about numlock
[07:38] <JoeMorris> xenguy?
[07:38] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell lafferpt about sources
[07:38] <baconbacon> lafferpt, you could try adding your country code
[07:38] <baconbacon> like ca.archive.ubuntu.com
[07:38] <Xenguy> JoeMorris: ?
 JoeMorris, Xenguy cool thanks
[07:39] <JoeMorris> was talking to majd
[07:39] <john_linux_newbi> I'm sure this is really far below the level of everyone here - but Bug Buddy wants to know the path to send mail.  I have no idea how to find the path.  Can anyone help?
[07:39] <gnomefreak> lafferpt: just dont put country code in the security.archive or however its writen
[07:39] <Xenguy> JoeMorris: then prepend his nick :-)
[07:39] <sethrd> Anyone running GNOME 2.14 on Breezy?
[07:39] <lafferpt> gnomefreak, tks
[07:40] <gnomefreak> john_linux_newbi: you need to set up sendmail for that i would say choose the saave option and copy paste it into your bug report
[07:40] <gnomefreak> lafferpt: yw
[07:40] <JoeMorris> you know i remember when ubuntu first came out
[07:40] <gnomefreak> save*
[07:40] <Yoric> Alexi5, can't boot with one of them yet :)
[07:40] <JoeMorris> and there were only a few users
[07:40] <HOEHAVER> does anyone know how to finish the final step of installation for ubuntu 5.10 when it was interupted
[07:40] <Yoric> But they're supposed to be good.
[07:40] <JoeMorris> ubuntu took off like a rock :)
[07:40] <HOEHAVER> the part after it reboots and is configureing packages
[07:40] <JoeMorris> #lycoris used to be kickin
[07:41] <gtek> can anyone answer any questions regarding edubuntu????
[07:41] <john_linux_newbi> thank you gnome freak I did that.  How can I go about setting up send mail?
[07:41] <JoeMorris> then it went poof and merged with mandrake
[07:41] <zipper> So, what editor do you guys recommend for php programming? (not a console editor)
[07:41] <gnomefreak> HOEHAVER: next boot might contimue it if not that not sure you could try running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:41] <zipper> !sshd
[07:41] <ubotu> rumour has it, sshd is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto
[07:41] <Xenguy> JoeMorris: there is #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:41] <gnomefreak> zipper: anjuta i think supports php
[07:41] <detunedwarlock> !ati drivers
[07:41] <ubotu> detunedwarlock: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:42] <zipper> gnomefreak, i'll try it out, thanks
[07:42] <ab0rted> why should i choose ubuntu as my desktop?
[07:42] <gnomefreak> !ati
[07:42] <ubotu> I guess ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589

[07:43] <neurosis> :p
[07:43] <Karmander41> JoeMorris what? an usual mouse
[07:43] <Plitskin> uuuhh
[07:43] <zipper> !ftpd
[07:43] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, zipper
[07:43] <Plitskin> well... that was quite some learning today
[07:43] <rukuartic> zipper: What you lookin' for?
[07:43] <ab0rted> neurosis i detest windows, im only using it atm because of gaming
[07:44] <neurosis> what games do you like to play?
[07:44] <ASTX813> Well that went ok, finally, but now one of my fonts is huge
[07:44] <Xenguy> neurosis: yeah, it'll curl you hair faster too =)
[07:44] <JoeMorris> karmander41:  you need to reconfigure the x config
[07:44] <Karmander41> JoeMorris i went to /dev/mouse and the file doesn't exist
[07:44] <Plitskin> I wonder what's next...
[07:44] <rukuartic> ab0rted: Oh, you mean why Ubuntu vs. Other linux distros?
[07:44] <zipper> !apache
[07:44] <ubotu> I guess apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[07:44] <neurosis> Xenguy: : haha... ive  been on the month toe curl
[07:44] <ab0rted> yes rukuartic
[07:44] <Karmander41> JoeMorris how can i do that?
[07:44] <rukuartic> zipper: use /msg ubuotu topic for help
[07:44] <neurosis> i started using debian for a break
[07:44] <Eleaf> mmmm
[07:44] <Xenguy> zipper: vsftpd
[07:44] <JoeMorris> Option "Device" "/dev/ttys0"
[07:44] <JoeMorris> Option "Protocol" "Auto"
[07:44] <rukuartic> ab0rted: This channel is the biggest reason
[07:44] <neurosis> i love freebsd
[07:44] <ab0rted> lol rukuartic
[07:44] <rukuartic> ab0rted: You're not gonna find another distro with as much as a supportive help channel
[07:44] <Blippe> ab0rted, cause it is the easy debian!
[07:44] <gtek> has anyone used edubuntu to set up thin clients?
[07:44] <neurosis> but debian is allot easier to get running
[07:44] <Plitskin> oh yeah, got to set lamp too
[07:44] <rukuartic> ab0rted: That, and debian's really easy to install packages and stuff.
[07:44] <Joetheodd> At the risk of being irrevelant, FreeBSD is UNIX, not Linux.
[07:45] <Plitskin> I guess I'll do it tomorrow
[07:45] <ab0rted> well gentoo is bigger rukuartic
[07:45] <Plitskin> thanks guys
[07:45] <Blippe> gtek, i fiddled with it!
[07:45] <Plitskin> I appreciate it
[07:45] <neurosis> ab0rted: honesly, this is the best help channel ive ever been to in my life...
[07:45] <Plitskin> laterz
[07:45] <Karmander41> how can i install my mouse help me please
[07:45] <Joetheodd> Well, FreeBSD is BSD, not UNIX, but closer to UNIX than Linux.
[07:45] <neurosis> not allot of ego nonsense here
[07:45] <JoeMorris> im using dapper
[07:45] <HOEHAVER> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[07:45] <rukuartic> ab0rted: Yea, I've been around with a few distros, I've never found a more supportive help channel. Most of them are like "RTFM!!!!"
[07:45] <HOEHAVER> how do i do this
[07:45] <JoeMorris> is 5.10 using xfree86?
[07:45] <HOEHAVER> ?
[07:45] <rukuartic> ab0rted: Or people don't talk to you at all.
[07:45] <Xenguy> neurosis: if it were GPL'd, I might look at it.
[07:45] <Blippe> Joetheodd, bsd is about much unix as macosx and linux
[07:45] <JoeMorris> for the older versions of ubuntu it was
[07:45] <AlphaVista> JoeMorris: No
[07:46] <JoeMorris> ok
[07:46] <HOEHAVER> i for real need help if any one can help me
[07:46] <Karmander41> anybody knows how to configure a mouse in Ubuntu
[07:46] <ab0rted> but i need something to convince me on installing ubuntu and using it as my main desktop
[07:46] <exigence123> I'm having one hell of a problem caused by the ubuntu install CD - apparently, it wiped the partition table on a drive to be used for dual-booting
[07:46] <JoeMorris> karmander41 By default Linux is not for serial mouse, instead it will detect PS/2
[07:46] <JoeMorris> karmander41 thats your issue
[07:47] <ubuntu__> hi
[07:47] <arkanis> what does "the debootstrap program exited with an error (return value  1)" mean?
[07:47] <JoeMorris> karmander im not sure which file its on
[07:47] <Karmander41> ok thank you
[07:47] <ab0rted> i like debian but
[07:47] <ubuntu__> how can i view files that are on my pc ?
[07:47] <Blippe> arkanis, depends on when it did, install?
[07:47] <JoeMorris> oh wait
[07:47] <ab0rted> what makes ubuntu better?
[07:47] <hurax> arkanis: means the installation program has produced an error somewhere
[07:47] <JoeMorris> xorg.conf
[07:47] <MrRio> HOEHAVER, just ask your question
[07:47] <JoeMorris> i think
[07:47] <Xenguy> Joetheodd: GNU == GNU's Not Unix :-)
[07:47] <hurax> had that all the time with the defect cds...
[07:47] <exigence123> Joe or anyone else, have any ideas how I might go about fixing a partition table and getting to that ntfs partition when windows installer can't even see the drive / recovery console is helpless for it?
[07:47] <AlphaVista> JoeMorris: yes
[07:48] <arkanis> so I can't a
[07:48] <rukuartic> ab0rted: Like I said, the support channel. All linux distros are essentially the same, the only diff is redhat vs debian
[07:48] <JoeMorris> karmander:  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:48] <HOEHAVER> the final stage of installation was interupted when it was configuring pacages and when i run sudo apt-get update or upgrade i get this message
[07:48] <JoeMorris> karmander:  sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:48] <HOEHAVER> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[07:48] <arkanis> blippe, it says I should look in /target/var/log/bootstrap.log but I can't find this file...
[07:48] <Blippe> ab0rted, it is supposedly easier to install and maintain... (linux for humans)
[07:48] <cycus_zwisus> after installing ati drivers shouldn't it be enough to edit xorg.conf and substitute "ati" with "fglrx"?
[07:48] <HOEHAVER> how do i do what it asks
[07:48] <ab0rted> yeah but ubuntu doesnt have portage ;p
[07:49] <JoeMorris> karmander:  Check the mouse section and see if it detected it as a serial mouse
[07:49] <rukuartic> ab0rted: Like I said, the support channel. All linux distros are essentially the same, the only diff is redhat vs debian
[07:49] <sethrd> If I want to get GNOME 2.14 on my Breezy system, so I need to use GARnome, or is there an easier way of doing it?
[07:49] <sethrd> And please, do not say just upgrade to Dapper. I tried that last time, and I foobared my system.
[07:49] <Joetheodd> Xenguy: Yeah, I know, but FreeBSD is BSD, not GNU =p
[07:49] <gnomefreak> sethrd: i havent heard of a way at all yet due to versions of libs ect clashing
[07:50] <JoeMorris> sethrd dapper isnt final, what do you expect
[07:50] <Xenguy> ab0rted: debian variants can compile from source *or* use binaries
[07:50] <sethrd> JoeMorris: I'm very aware of that.
[07:50] <sethrd> gnomefreak: Ok, thanks.
[07:50] <cycus_zwisus> sethrd, garnome seems the easiest way but some packages ubuntu uses are too old for successful compilation
[07:50] <Blippe> arkanis, is it during a normal install the "target" is nothin if it was during a debootstrap to get 32 bits to run under a 64 bits enviromnent it is where you debottstrapteed 'em, so again, when does this problem appear?
[07:50] <rukuartic> Hey, anyone had experience dualbooting a laptop thats already got Win2k installed on it? If you partition the HD and then install Ubuntu, will it run Grub at boot, or will I have to configure that myself?
[07:50] <ab0rted> will my genitalia get bigger if i use ubuntu instead of other linux distros?
[07:50] <sethrd> Well, is it possible to have the deskbar on 2.12?
[07:50] <ab0rted> lol ;p
[07:50] <JoeMorris> sethrd:  i love trying test versions cause i havent seen a linux distro ive liked yet for primetime till recently...... now its starting to get good :)
[07:50] <Dr_Willis> ab0rted,  it worked for my wife.
[07:50] <rukuartic> ab0rted: Thats just a way to get banned from here >>;
[07:50] <Xenguy> Joetheodd: you implied that bsd is better because it is closer to unix; my point is that gnu/linux is *intentionally* different from unix, and that is OK
[07:51] <arkanis> blippe, I can't say exactly
[07:51] <gps> it should grub for you rukuartic
[07:51] <Blippe> ab0rted no, we got apt-get... it is better :P
[07:51] <JoeMorris> sethrd which dapper did you try?
[07:51] <d3v11> Error: Kernel source code is incomplete - header file dm.h not found. <-- what can i do?
[07:51] <ab0rted> sorry rukuartic
[07:51] <gps> ab0rted: other
[07:51] <sethrd> JoeMorris: I did a dist-upgrade. I know, not the smartest thing...
[07:51] <JoeMorris> sethrd:  no problems with dapper flight 5 actually that i installed from scratch
[07:51] <rukuartic> ab0rted: Yea <<; Either way, I said, the community is the best reason to use ubuntu
[07:51] <Blippe> arkanis, you don't know what you are doing? are you installing or not?
[07:51] <hurax> well i had the same with a defect cd, are you sure yours is ok?
[07:51] <rukuartic> ab0rted: Its also pretty secure...
[07:51] <exigence123> hoe, were you talking to me about dpkg
[07:51] <rukuartic> !tell ab0rted about root
[07:51] <sethrd> JoeMorris: I'll have to grab the ISO then.
[07:51] <Davey> sethrd: I did a dist-upgrade too, works perfectly for me, XGL and everything :)
[07:51] <d3v11> how can i check what version of the kernel i have?
[07:52] <JoeMorris> sethrd:  but remember its not final
[07:52] <sethrd> Davey: It messed up my X.
[07:52] <Xenguy> ab0rted: I would add that the technical merits of debian based systems is another compelling reason to choose Ubuntu
[07:52] <arkanis> yeah,i'am installing, but I can't say what the pc could'nt copy or install
[07:52] <JoeMorris> sethrd i had issues with it dont get me wrong, but nothing fatal or anything
[07:52] <Davey> sethrd: what's wrong with it?
[07:52] <aridese> is there a linux MS publisher - type program?
[07:52] <Blippe> aridese, several..
[07:52] <Xenguy> ab0rted: plus the fact that is licensed GPL, and is non-commercial
[07:52] <gps> googlepages.com ;)
[07:52] <aridese> can you recommend the one with the least learning curve?
[07:53] <Blippe> aridese, but none tha imports .pub-files
[07:53] <d3v11> Ne1 knows how to check kernel version?
[07:53] <phrowzen> hey
[07:53] <sethrd> Davey: When I got past boot, and it loaded up GDM, there were lines going across the screen. I can't really describe it. It was unusable in that state though.
[07:53] <Xenguy> aridese: for desktop publishing, see scribus
[07:53] <aridese> Blippe, i don't need that, i need to make a pamphlet for school in a day or two (been procrastinating :-/)
[07:53] <Xenguy> brb
[07:53] <ab0rted> alright then, im convinced
[07:53] <phrowzen> has anyone tried touch rdpserver as an alternative vino solution? rdp is probably the one thing built by microsoft ive liked.. its quite efficient over slow networks, vnc can be unbearably slow sometimes
[07:53] <sethrd> ab0rted: Conviced of what?
[07:53] <aridese> Xenguy, ill check it out, thanks
[07:53] <Davey> sethrd: well, make sure you have your current kernels restricted modules installed if you use proprietary Nvidia or ATI drivers, it is not installed automatically
[07:54] <ab0rted> i just wish the shipit disks didnt take so long
[07:54] <sethrd> Davey: Only drivers I'm using not supplied by install are for my wireless card.
[07:54] <asymmetry> ab0rted: I could just mail them to you.
[07:54] <sethrd> Davey: I didn't touch anything for my ATI Radeon 7500 Mobility.
[07:54] <Davey> sethrd: are you using fglrx or ati?
[07:54] <ab0rted> by the time they get here a new stable release is out =\
[07:54] <sethrd> Davey: Direct Rendering worked by default. Sure, only got scores of like 500, but it's fine.
[07:54] <Blippe> aridese, i think scribus are a good "substitute"
[07:54] <d3v11> i have to compile a software on my computer.. but it says that i'm missing the kernel sources.. where can i download them? and how do i check which version of the kernel i have?
[07:55] <sethrd> Davey: Honestly, I couldn't tell ya.
[07:55] <aridese> Blippe, ok =)
[07:55] <ab0rted> asymmetry really?
[07:55] <Mischevious> anyone here have ipod nano and can do me a humungus favor ?
[07:55] <rukuartic> d3v11: Checked the wiki yet?
[07:55] <asymmetry> ab0rted: Sure. Just need an address, and whether you want CDs or DVDs.
[07:55] <Davey> weee! 73 Dapper updates today :)
[07:55] <phrowzen> Mischevious, i do but im at work right now
[07:55] <asymmetry> ab0rted: But, FYI, Dapper comes out in a very short time.
[07:55] <d3v11> rukuartic, yes.. checked everywhere
[07:55] <rukuartic> d3v11: I know its there, I just don't know the command :P
[07:55] <Mischevious> phrowzen, okay.
[07:55] <ab0rted> ok then ill wait for dapper
[07:55] <Davey> asymmetry: June/July is hardly close ;)
[07:55] <sethrd> Davey: It looks like as of now I'm using the ati driver.
[07:55] <phrowzen> Mischevious, does that still help you?
[07:56] <rukuartic> d3v11: You're right! :O lemme check around real quick
[07:56] <Mischevious> phrowzen, no ..
[07:56] <phrowzen> okay.. sorry
[07:56] <asymmetry> Davey: No, but April is.
[07:56] <Davey> asymmetry: and it's been delayed 6 weeks
[07:56] <asymmetry> Davey: Which puts it in May.
[07:56] <Davey> asymmetry: it will not be released in April
[07:56] <Davey> no, June :)
[07:57] <asymmetry> Davey: Well, I tend to trust the Ubuntu site. And they say April. So until I see something there, I'm going to say April.
[07:57] <bobbyd> hi
[07:57] <Mischevious> it's pushed back to june
[07:57] <sanhauru> re :)
[07:57] <Mischevious> anyone here have ipod nano and can do me a humungus favor ?
[07:57] <Blippe> the ubuntu site says 1st june
[07:57] <asymmetry> Ubuntu site, Release Schedule: Ubuntu 6.04 (The Dapper Drake): April 2006
[07:57] <bobbyd> I'm trying to add a new disk to a raid array, when I do "sudo mdadm --add /dev/md0 /dev/sda" I get "mdadm: Cannot open /dev/sda: Device or resource busy" but sda isn't mounted...
[07:58] <amonkey> i have a usb->serial convertor, how can i figure out what /dev/* it is being linked to?
[07:58] <Mischevious> asymmetry, it's june 1st
[07:58] <d3v11> rukuartic, seems like no one knows that command.. been looking all day :P
[07:58] <Davey> asymmetry: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseSchedule - go read
[07:59] <rukuartic> d3v11: You mean kernel headders?
[07:59] <rukuartic> d3v11: I think, I think... its "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[07:59] <Davey> asymmetry: and the ML post from Mark Shuttleworth, http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2006-March/000058.html
[07:59] <lafferpt> I installed aspell-pt package, where is the dictionary location?
[08:00] <ab0rted> hey those ubuntu cakes in fridge.ubuntu look yummy
[08:00] <Blippe> asymmetry, and it is ubuntu 6.06 (dapper drake)
[08:01] <d3v11> rukuartic, doing that it says that I already has the latets package
[08:01] <d3v11> latest even
[08:01] <Blippe> if you want the latest it is just "kernel-headers"
[08:02] <Blippe> d3v11, and if you want the whole source, you should get "kernel-tree"
[08:02] <rukuartic> d3v11: how about "sudo apt-get install linux-tree$(uname -r)?
[08:02] <rukuartic> adur... without the ? or "
[08:02] <fiendskull9> !java
[08:02] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs

[08:03] <Cyorxamp> Hi my kernel is 2.6.12-10-386 - I need 2.6.13 for something
[08:03] <Cyorxamp> How can I go about that?
[08:03] <AlphaVista> www.kernel.org
[08:03] <ubuntu_> hi all
[08:03] <toni__> hi
[08:03] <Cyorxamp> what kenerl does dapper use!?
[08:03] <Syirrus> I would just like to say I love ubuntu and we plan to wedd soon
[08:04] <graveson> can anyone help me manage a raid device ,the raid device is not started automatically when rebooting
[08:04] <arkanis> blippe, it can't load zlib1g (say couldn't download package)
[08:04] <AlphaVista> 2.6.15-19-386
[08:04] <toni__> Is it possible to use NTFS on ubuntu?!?
[08:04] <toni__> plz help
[08:04] <Cyorxamp> !ntfs
[08:04] <ubotu> rumour has it, ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[08:04] <toni__> thx, man
[08:05] <bobbyd> I can dd from /dev/sda, but I get this:"rob@phoenix:~$ sudo mdadm --zero-superblock --force /dev/sda
[08:05] <bobbyd> mdadm: Couldn't open /dev/sda for write - not zeroing"
[08:05] <Cyorxamp> what kernel does Dapper use!?
[08:05] <bobbyd> anyone know whay that's happening?
[08:05] <AlphaVista> 2.6.15-19-386
[08:05] <AlphaVista> twice ive said that
[08:05] <ab0rted> AlphaVista is teh ubuntu guru
[08:05] <selinium> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2006-March/000058.html
[08:05] <ab0rted> ;p
[08:05] <AlphaVista> lol
[08:05] <venox> huhh... why the tango-icon-theme doesn't work with ROX (packaged on xubuntu-desktop)?
[08:06] <gtek> HELP need assistant with edubuntu
[08:06] <gnomefreak> !helpme
[08:06] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[08:06] <arkanis> and it defintly fails when wants do unpack "makedev"
[08:07] <NickGarvey> !edubuntu
[08:07] <ubotu> [edubuntu]  an Ubuntu version suitable for classroom use. See http://edubuntu.org or visit #edubuntu
[08:07] <gnomefreak> edubuntu works great here
[08:07] <gtek> I loaded edubuntu onto a new server that I built I assumed that the setup would automatically setup LTSP and the thin cleint server
[08:08] <d3v11> when trying: sudo apt-get install linux-tree$(uname -r) i get the message that it can't find the package: linux-tree2.6.12-10-686-smp
[08:08] <gnomefreak> gtek: it doesnt
[08:08] <d3v11> ne1 knows what to do=
[08:08] <d3v11> ?
[08:08] <afief> What is the worst thing that could happen if i upgrade to dapper now?
[08:08] <gnomefreak> gtek: go to the site above that ubotu posted for edubuntu and they should have instreuctions
[08:08] <ogra> gtek, http://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuInstallNotes
[08:08] <gnomefreak> afief: it leave you without an os
[08:09] <roast> d3v11: apt-cache search linux-tree, look for the package you want, and then install that.
[08:09] <AlphaVista> you can try sudo apt-get install `uname -r`
[08:09] <gnomefreak> afief: i would wait till at the very least april 20th-21
[08:09] <frank23> afief: having an unusable dapper
[08:10] <toni__> what is the best alternative msn messenger for ubuntu?
[08:10] <dabaR> Yo!
[08:10] <gnomefreak> toni__: gaim or amsn
[08:10] <mojojojo_> hi! can I set so for a particular application sudo will not ask for password?
[08:10] <ASTX813> If I don't disable my wifi card (turn off the switch) before the computer boots up, it freezes when it gets to the setting up ALSA
[08:10] <toni__> ok
[08:10] <toni__> thx
[08:10] <afief> frank23: i don't mind unstable, as long as i can get my data out of it
[08:10] <NickGarvey> what happens when there are multiple thin client servers on a network?
[08:10] <afief> gnomefreak: i thought they are not releasing at 20.april anymore
[08:10] <ASTX813> As soon as it got past ALSA, I could enable the card and the system boots fine
[08:11] <gnomefreak> afief: that is what unstable means (it can break at any time loss of data is kind of with that)
[08:11] <Joetheodd> Is there some reason mozilla-firefox is in security and not main? =p
[08:11] <gnomefreak> afief: april 20th is beta release
[08:11] <gnomefreak> june 1 is final release
[08:11] <afief> gnomefreak: i don't mind loss of data i'm currently working on. loss of data that's already saved is scary...
[08:11] <ASTX813> Anyone know of any connection there?
[08:11] <frank23> afief: data should be pretty safe... worst case scenario: recover it with a live cd or another linux partition
[08:12] <mojojojo_> can I set so for a particular program sudo will not ask for password?
[08:12] <rukuartic> Any Linux file backup/archive programs out there worth using?
[08:12] <kergoth> jesus, the fglrx-kernel-source package is completely and utterly useless
[08:12] <roast> mojojojo_: look up NOPASSWD
[08:12] <kergoth> debian/rules has spaces on a line that should have a tab, breaking make's attempt to parse it
[08:12] <Joetheodd> afief: See where you're coming from. I'm in the habit of control+s after every tiny change i make =p
[08:12] <afief> frank23: so if my linux system breaks down, i got lot's of stuff saved in my home directory. how can i access that with a liveCD?
[08:12] <roast> mojojojo_: something like 'username ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/slay' in sudoers
[08:12] <gnomefreak> afief: ok if you dont mind getting up one day and dapper not being able to boot install it if that bothers you than dont install it
[08:12] <mojojojo_> roast, thx :)
[08:13] <roast> mojojojo_: gl
[08:13] <afief> Joetheodd: we two have the same habbit after working too long on windows i guess
[08:13] <arkanis> hm, when I have the ubuntu-image and alcohol120% in which mode should I burn the cd?
[08:13] <ASTX813> !alsa
[08:13] <ubotu> [alsa]  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=32063, see also !dmix
[08:13] <rukuartic> afief: mount the HD, then cd /mnt/hdx/home/<yourusername>
[08:13] <bobbyd> does anyone here use software raid?
[08:13] <fangorious> none of my gnome-user-share shares are showing up. I have two linux machines and an apple and none of them see the other two. firewalls are turned off on all three
[08:13] <ASTX813> !freeze
[08:13] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ASTX813
[08:13] <mulima> hi
[08:13] <afief> gnomefreak: no i don't mind, as long as i can recover my saved data somehow. if you could kindly tell me how to do that....
[08:13] <fangorious> the only thing i see when browsing the network in ubuntu is an empty "Windows Network"
[08:14] <Joetheodd> afief: Heh, basically programming class, having to save before recomping while testing something, but yeah, it helps on Windows, lol
[08:14] <ASTX813> afief a live cd will give you access to all partitions, then just copy them off to a network share
[08:14] <frank23> afief: boot the live cd, mount the / partition of the HD. then copy the data somwhere. burn it or something.  If you have important data that you are scared to lose, you should be making regular backups anyways
[08:14] <rukuartic> frank23: any good linux backup programs out there?
[08:14] <afief> rukuartic: isn't there some permission game i would have to play? or is the home directory open to read by everybody?
[08:14] <aridese> how do i set up a network printer in ubuntu?
[08:14] <f8> hi, is there a channel for ATI help?
[08:14] <gnomefreak> afief: that would depend on what you want to save. i suggest using live cd to do that but there is no such thing as "this is possible or not possible" in dapper
[08:14] <rzr> f8: #ATI
[08:14] <fangorious> aridese: as a server or a client?
[08:15] <f8> on this server?
[08:15] <rukuartic> afief: Not sure. Give it a shot, go grab a livecd and see if you can do it :P
[08:15] <aridese> fangorious, as a server
[08:15] <frank23> rukuartic: I don't really know them...
[08:15] <fangorious> aridese: do you have the printer configured locally, through System->Administration->Printing?
[08:15] <afief> joetheodd: yeah, that's where i took it off: programming VB(sorry people, i was fourth grade when i did that! don't shot me!)
[08:15] <sethrd> Ok, so the Dapper Drake torrent sucks.
[08:15] <aridese> fangorious, yes
[08:16] <gnomefreak> sethrd: ;) its not too bad
[08:16] <ariel> Hello boys
[08:16] <sethrd> I got 2 seeders and 4 leechers.
[08:16] <fangorious> aridese: what type of clients are you serving to?
[08:16] <afief> okay then... me will now save all data somewhere safe and do a nice apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:16] <gnomefreak> thats not that good
[08:16] <aridese> fangorious, windows clients
[08:16] <ariel> I m from Argentina
[08:16] <sethrd> gnomefreak: I've had it running for 30 minutes, and only connected to 6 people, 2 seeders and 4 leechers.

[08:16] <fangorious> aridese: you should be able to just install the samba server and it will automatically share the printers
[08:16] <ASTX813> not helpful
[08:16] <afief> anything i should prepare before doing that?
[08:16] <rukuartic> ASTX813: If you want help, http://google.com
[08:16] <gnomefreak> afief: back up everything and do a clean install
[08:16] <hid3> Evening everyone. Let's say I have a heavy traffic from/to a certain host. What takes fewer resources to process a request to/from that host: a route or a firewall rule?
[08:17] <sethrd> gnomefreak: Sadly, I'm whoring Ubuntu's bandwidth by doing a regular HTTP download.
[08:17] <rukuartic> ASTX813: Don't just ! the bot =\. Try /msg ubotu <question> for better help
[08:17] <aridese> fangorious, unfortunatly that's not the case -- i have samba installed :-/
[08:17] <frank23> afief: what's the rush though. why not just wait for the dapper release?
[08:17] <rukuartic> ASTX813: doesn't spam the channel.
[08:17] <rukuartic> afief: frank23 has a good point
[08:17] <ASTX813> sorry
[08:17] <Nefass> Hello
[08:17] <afief> clean install?:( don't have enough blank CDs here, is there a network install option
[08:17] <exigence123> Would it be possible to create a DOS bootdisk using this ubuntu live CD?  I'm basically a nix noobie
[08:17] <Nefass> somebody can help me in bios ?
[08:17] <fangorious> aridese: are the windows machines able to browse your ubuntu machine?
[08:17] <aridese> fangorious, yes
[08:17] <gnomefreak> afief: for dapper not sure but i hear alot of people having issues with upgrading
[08:17] <afief> frank23: well, i would have been willing to wait for the end of april, but 1st june is too far away
[08:18] <fangorious> aridese: so they see the file shares, just not the printer?
[08:18] <gnomefreak> afief: april 20th do it than
[08:18] <Nefass> PLEASE
[08:18] <frank23> afief: is there a new feature in dapper you can't live without?
[08:18] <afief> gnomefreak: your advice is my command sir
[08:18] <aridese> fangorious, i had to configure the samba config file to get them to see the printer, but they cant print
[08:18] <gnomefreak> ^^ will be released for people to test than
[08:18] <exigence123> nefass, you might want to ask your question so people know what you need
[08:18] <aridese> fangorious, they don't have the required driver, but when i install it, it doesnt work -- there's no automated utility?
[08:18] <afief> frank23: basicly not, i'm still messing around with linux and trying to get a bunch of different things to work
[08:18] <aridese> fangorious, i suspect is futzed the configuration file somehow
[08:18] <gnomefreak> oops :(
[08:19] <gnomefreak> ok lets move to #ubuntu+1 please for the dapper talk
[08:19] <afief> frank23: but right now i tried to install cinelerra and dvdstyler and couldn't because a bunch of missing dependencies
[08:19] <ubuntu_> Hello
[08:19] <exigence123> sooo.... anyone, DOS bootdisk creation while on a live CD?  I haven't a clue.
[08:19] <f8> i cn't get my video card to work so i'm using irssi, how can i learn the basic command?
[08:19] <gnomefreak> afief: you need the repos enabled
[08:19] <venox> huh. apt-get recommends me gtk-engines-smooth
[08:19] <venox> but there's no gtk-engines-smooth anywhere.
[08:19] <venox> hahahaha
[08:19] <fangorious> aridese: in System->Administration->Printing there might be something for configuring smb sharing, but I don't have a printer so I can't check
[08:19] <afief> gnomefreak: which? I've already enabled universe and multiverse
[08:19] <fangorious> aridese: have you checked /var/log/cups/*
[08:20] <aridese> fangorious, ok, ill look
[08:20] <frank23> afief: how did you try to install those?
[08:20] <gnomefreak> afief: are they the backport universe adn multiverse?
[08:20] <themachine> I don't understand why the annonymous login for proftpd won't accept my email for a passwd
[08:20] <f8> can anyone give me the help command for irssi?
[08:20] <rukuartic> themachine: are you telling your FTP program to log in anonymously? usually its like ftp -A
[08:20] <gnomefreak> f8: /help
[08:20] <afief> frank23: downloaded from their webpages, they weren't in the repositories
[08:20] <mulima> anyone knows if the "Cap Processor Usage patch" could be used in ubuntu ?
[08:21] <mulima> http://www.tls-technologies.com/CPU/cpu-intro.html
[08:21] <f8> thanks gnome, do i place a keyword after /help?
[08:21] <afief> gnomefreak: ummm... how do i check that? I enabled the options in synaptic repository maneger basicly
[08:21] <frank23> afief: as source? that's the best way for programs not in ubuntu
[08:21] <gnomefreak> f8: not for help menu what are you wanting to do with irssi?
[08:21] <eirejah> hey guys what do i need to setup printing on ubuntu ?
[08:21] <afief> frank23: no, as DEB, i'm still having my problems compiling more complicated packages from source
[08:21] <eirejah> !printing
[08:21] <ubotu> methinks printing is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters or http://www.linuxprinting.org
[08:21] <f8> i'm trying to manage being in multiple rooms
[08:21] <gnomefreak> afief: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.llist
[08:22] <gnomefreak> f8: ctrl+n will move to next ctrl+p will move back
[08:22] <JAyRULE> i just tried to install ubuntu.. i just put the disk in, reboot, and i get an error saying "ISOLINUX 2.04 2003-04-16 isolinux: Disk error 01, AX = 4229,9F"  is there anyway around this?
[08:22] <gnomefreak> ctrl+ #of room will move you right to it
[08:22] <jbroome> sounds like a bad burn
[08:22] <frank23> afief: compiling from source is better than installing non ubuntu .debs
[08:22] <sethrd> JAyRULE: Did you download the ISO or order the disks?
[08:22] <Fr33-> hello
[08:22] <afief> gnomefreak: okay i'm there, now how can i check if the backport is enabled?
[08:23] <f8> thanks gnomefreak...
[08:23] <JAyRULE> i downloaded the iso... i dont think it would be a bad burn because i installed an earlier version of it on a newer system
[08:23] <sethrd> JAyRULE: If you downloaded the ISO, try getting a disk new and reburning it.
[08:23] <f8> also, whats the command to remain sudo?
[08:23] <sethrd> JAyRULE: Using the same disk?
[08:23] <jbroome> f8: sudo -s
[08:23] <btdown> sudo su
[08:23] <Fr33-> i have 1 problem
[08:23] <gnomefreak> afief: the lines that have universe and multiverse in them first make sure no # infront than tell me what they say
[08:23] <Fr33-> i have fuck my Console T_T
[08:23] <gnomefreak> Fr33-: language please
[08:23] <MaCinTof> Hi
[08:23] <Fr33-> sorry
[08:24] <afief> frank23: but it is also a good deal more complicated... if there was a simple way to do it i would, but things like supertux and zsnes were the biggest thing i ever compiled
[08:24] <rybuntu> anyone know how to remove the ubuntu icon next to applications in gnome?
[08:24] <NickGarvey> !tell Fr33- about language
[08:24] <JAyRULE> sethrd/sethrd ... ill retry the same disk on a different pc... ill be back...
[08:24] <JAyRULE> brb
[08:24] <yggdrasil> howhow can i tell how fast my network connection is ?
[08:24] <rybuntu> anyone know how to remove the ubuntu icon next to applications in gnome?
[08:24] <yggdrasil> ie 10mb 100 11
[08:24] <sethrd> Anyone here running an ATI Radeon 87500 Mobility?
[08:24] <sethrd> Er, an ATI Radeon 7500 Mobility that is.
[08:24] <afief> gnomefreak... that's a very long list but there are some #ed lines containing the word "backports"
[08:25] <gnomefreak> afief: paste me everything in that list to pastebin please
[08:25] <afief> sethrd: me running ATI x600 mobility
[08:25] <afief> !pastebin
[08:25] <ubotu> from memory, pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[08:25] <gnomefreak> brb while your doing that
[08:25] <frank23> afief: I know what you mean. What I do sometimes is if a deb needs one upgraded dependancy, I use a single package from dapper or debian unstable to upgrade it
[08:25] <sethrd> afief: Eh, not nearly the same card. Thanks though.
[08:26] <afief> sethrd: you're welcome, a bad try at paying the community back a bit:)
[08:26] <sfar-ubu> The following packages have been kept back:
[08:26] <sfar-ubu>   hplip-data libtagc0 rfb
[08:26] <sfar-ubu> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
[08:26] <sethrd> afief: It's fine. THanks though.
[08:26] <sfar-ubu> when i typed "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" .. what does that mean?
[08:26] <sfar-ubu> "kept back"
[08:27] <shambling> hi, howto check/edit what kernel modules are loaded from term?
[08:27] <patrick52222> is there good P2P Application for dapper drake
[08:27] <ericsp> hi I upgraded from breezy to dapper and I am facing a problem with libcamel
[08:27] <sethrd> patrick52222: Frostwire.
[08:27] <afief> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10768
[08:27] <ericsp> anyanone familiar witht that bug?
[08:27] <frank23> afief: dvdstyler has breezy packages! http://dvdstyler.sourceforge.net/wiki/Installation
[08:27] <afief> frank23: so, do you have some tips for compiling not too complicated stuff(not kernel and gnome...)
[08:28] <patrick52222> where do i get  Frostwire
[08:28] <NickGarvey> !frostwire
[08:28] <afief> frank23: weird their main webpage didn't have it
[08:28] <JAyRULE> sethrd/jbroome... i just retried it on a newer system and it reads the disk just fine...
[08:28] <NickGarvey> !tell patrick52222 about frostwire
[08:28] <mojojojo_> ok, now's really important question... I fucked up /etc/sudoers... I can't see it or edit... Is there a workaround?
[08:28] <gnomefreak> afief: give me a minute please keep that file open
[08:28] <sethrd> JAyRULE: Is this on a laptop?
[08:29] <frank23> afief: if you wnat to compile a new version of something in the ubuntu repositories,  sudo apt-get build-dep packagename  will get all the build deps
[08:29] <NickGarvey> !tell mojojojo_ about language
[08:29] <twopeak> Ive been trying all day to fix my keyboard to be in the belgian layout. Is there anyone who has some help on this, or should i re-install ubuntu?
[08:29] <ericsp> hi I upgraded from breezy to dapper and I am facing a problem with libcamel
[08:29] <DominusSuus> I'm trying to get DRI working on Dapper flight 5 - I'm getting libGLCore.so errors :(
[08:29] <NickGarvey> twopeak: man setxkbmap
[08:29] <JAyRULE> sethrd.. yeah... i retried it on a laptop and it works fine.. it's not working on an old pc.. 300mhz pc
[08:29] <roast> mojojojo_: you mean it /was/ there, and now it's not?
[08:29] <mojojojo_> ok, now's really important question... I  messed up /etc/sudoers... I can't see it or edit... Is there a workaround? :] 
[08:29] <NickGarvey> !tell ericsp about dapper
[08:29] <frank23> afief: if not, the project documentation usually lists the dependancies (-dev packages)  or just install them using the ./configure error messages
[08:30] <JAyRULE> sethrd.. why do u ask.. what would the difference be/
[08:30] <NickGarvey> mojojojo_: use visudo
[08:30] <patrick52222> how do i install frostwire
[08:30] <sethrd> JAyRULE: I'm running on a laptop, and I had to block certian ports when loading the installer.
[08:30] <roast> NickGarvey: will visudo restore the file if it's not there?
[08:30] <afief> frank23: a new version? there is program x version 1.5 in the repo, would apt-get build dep get me ready to install version 2?
[08:30] <mojojojo_> roast,  well it's there, but I edited it and seem to have made mistake...
[08:30] <sethrd> JAyRULE: Not ports, certian IRQs or something or rather. Found it online because I was having issues booting.
[08:31] <JAyRULE> sethrd.. oh it works fine on the laptop.. but im trying to install ubuntu on an old pc..tower...
[08:31] <Xenguy> roast: it prevent the original file from getting screwed up AFAIK
[08:31] <NickGarvey> roast: don't think so, but if it is there which it may be, then it should let him do what he wanted
[08:31] <sethrd> JAyRULE: Right.
[08:31] <void^> JAyRULE: old pcs may have broken cd boot support
[08:31] <roast> Xenguy: yea, that visudo will do. that's what it's there for :)
[08:31] <roast> mojojojo_: when editing /etc/sudoers, always use visudo
[08:31] <frank23> afief: If version 2 uses the same libraries as version 1.5, it would work yeah.
[08:31] <s|k> how do I install a tar?
[08:31] <jbroome> patrick52222: download it from here http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/frostwire/FrostWire-4.10.9-1.i586.deb?download
[08:31] <ericsp> thanks nick
[08:31] <roast> mojojojo_: if you don't want to use vi, set your EDITOR environment variable to your editor of choice
[08:31] <mojojojo_> NickGarvey, no, it says I don't have permission to do that :(
[08:31] <Xenguy> s|k: what app?
[08:32] <gnomefreak> afief: here is a full sources.list to paste in place of yours http://pastebin.com/622027
[08:32] <jbroome> patrick52222: sudo dpkg -i frostwire.deb
[08:32] <JAyRULE> void^> borken cd boot support?  sooo...i cant install it on this system? (the old tower)
[08:32] <s|k> Xenguy: eclipse
[08:32] <Xenguy> s|k: tar xvf tarball <-- to unpack the tarball
[08:32] <void^> JAyRULE: use bootdisks (yes, disks, 3,5", slow, annoying..)
[08:32] <Xenguy> s|k: tar zxvf tarball <-- to unpack the tarball if compressed
[08:32] <JAyRULE> ahh damn
[08:32] <JAyRULE> haha
[08:34] <gnomefreak> f8: to close a single window use /wc  if you didnt already know (you have to be seeing the page you close with that
[08:34] <exigence123> On trying to access a floppy drive while using a live CD - Error: given UDI is not a mountable volume
[08:34] <Xenguy> s|k: BTW I see packages for Eclipse stuff; do: apt-cache search eclipse
[08:34] <exigence123> is there any way to do this?
[08:34] <robertj> ok, I know this is on the list of very bad ideas but is there a way to run two processess & have them share a port & choose which one receives the packets bast on source ip address?
[08:34] <mojojojo_> it's like a deadlock.. in order to edit suders I have to have permission from that file and because it is broken system won't let me in... therefore I can't fix it :(.... any ideas?
[08:34] <eirejah> hello does anyone know where i can hpjis driver ??
[08:34] <s|k> Xenguy: yeah there's a lot, I don't know which to install
[08:34] <eirejah> pelase

[08:34] <s|k> thanks
[08:34] <Xenguy> s|k: np
[08:34] <f8> thanks gnomefreak
[08:35] <gnomefreak> robertj: im thinking if its on the list of very bad ideas you wont get an answer in here
[08:35] <roast> mojojojo_: oh I see.
[08:35] <gnomefreak> yw f8 i was assuming you closed the terminal to close a window but wasnt sure
[08:35] <roast> mojojojo_: none come to mind right now.
[08:35] <roast> mojojojo_: sorry :\
[08:35] <f8> yeah
[08:36] <roast> mojojojo_: robertj's seems to be worth a try if you have physical access to the machine
[08:36] <gnomefreak> robertj: i would try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic see if they will help you with very bad ideas
[08:36] <ROBOd> hello!
[08:36] <rukuartic> say Hi ROBOd
[08:36] <mojojojo_> roaet, ok, thx... I'll try that.. I just hope it won't use sudoers in that mode either :/
[08:37] <mojojojo_> roast,
[08:37] <Xenguy> mojojojo_: that problem must have been solved before
[08:37] <ROBOd> i have installed french language for my ubuntu system
[08:37] <ROBOd> and when i logon ... i get the error: fr_FR.UTF-8 not found
[08:37] <ROBOd> using system default
[08:37] <ROBOd> what to do?
[08:37] <pedro> hi, i installed manually JRE and now firefox crashes. I made link from /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so to the java directory. Any ideas ?
[08:37] <JAyRULE> void^: wait a sec, im on the ubuntu website and i dont see anything about boot disks... how would i create them?
[08:38] <ROBOd> i got lang-pack-fr lang-pack-support-fr lang-pack-gnome-fr(-base)
[08:38] <roast> Xenguy: it has. visudo
[08:38] <ROBOd> suggestions?
[08:38] <patrick52222> i just installed frostwire, when i click it it doesnt load up
[08:38] <graveson> what is the daemon for starting up the raid devices
[08:38] <gnomefreak> !raid
[08:38] <ubotu> raid is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaidConfigurationHowto
[08:38] <frank23> ROBOd: je sais pas mais tu peux essayer  #ubuntu-fr  /  #kubuntu-fr  aussi
[08:38] <Xenguy> roast: I mean a solution after locking out sudoers
[08:39] <Xenguy> roast: or can visudo solve that too?
[08:39] <Unity> can someone look at this apt-get problem: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10769 i am unable to install anything i always get this problem
[08:39] <gnomefreak> lol @ frank23 he speaks english pretty well
[08:39] <ROBOd> frank23: thanks
[08:39] <roast> Xenguy: I don't think so..
[08:39] <roast> Xenguy: the point is that visudo is supposed to protect against it, the very same way warnings work.
[08:40] <gnomefreak> Unity: can you paste your /etc/apt/sources.list file on pastebin please
[08:40] <Xenguy> roast: there has to be a workaround recovery for that kind of problem, hrm
[08:40] <JAyRULE> is there a way to create boot disks for ubuntu?
[08:40] <roast> Xenguy: it'll be a security risk
[08:40] <linuxel> Hello
[08:40] <Xenguy> roast: I suppose so
[08:40] <ROBOd> gnomefreak: true, i'm romanian, i first learned english. i, of course, and nore i'm in the process of learning french (hence i want to use ubuntu in french :) )
[08:40] <gnomefreak> ;)
[08:41] <patrick52222> i just installed frostwire, when i click it it doesnt load up does anyone know why
[08:41] <frank23> ROBOd: Oh. I just assumed you were French
[08:41] <Xenguy> mojojojo_: can you use the install cd to boot into recovery mode, or some approach like that?
[08:41] <ROBOd> frank23: pas problme :)
[08:41] <chiboogi> quelle langue on parle ici ?
[08:42] <NickGarvey> :)
[08:42] <Xenguy> !tell mojojojo_ about rescue
[08:42] <Xenguy> mojojojo_: NOTE: I don't know for sure that this will work; it's just an idea to explore
[08:42] <frank23> chiboogi: english. there are other channels for other languages
[08:43] <Xenguy> !fr
[08:43] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.

[08:44] <jackson_> thanks
[08:44] <gnomefreak> jackson_: and if you try compiling it you will more than likely run into major issues
[08:44] <Unity> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10770
[08:45] <Armagguedes> hello
[08:45] <f8> gnome, how do i minimize then get back to irssi?
[08:45] <Armagguedes> does Breezy work well w/ an Intel/PRO 2200BG wifi card out of the box?
[08:45] <gnomefreak> f8: minimize what?
[08:45] <f8> so that i can get back to my command line...
[08:46] <roast> Armagguedes: it should. Warty worked fine with my 2915 card out of the box
[08:46] <rukuartic> gnomefreak: Eh... what's 5.10? Breezy?
[08:46] <roast> Armagguedes: haven't used my 2915 in Breezy yet.
[08:46] <Xenguy> f8: Ctrl-Z, or just use 'screen'
[08:46] <afief> gnomefreak, i copied your list, first it gave me errors about the numbering. after #ing all the numbers i still get an error
[08:46] <fiendskull9> is there any kind of gamespy/xfire chat and server browasing client for linux?
[08:46] <gnomefreak> yes rukuartic
[08:46] <roast> I take it back. Hoary, not Warty.
[08:46] <f8> how do i get back after ctrl+z?
[08:46] <Xenguy> f8: (I mean learn to use screen)
[08:46] <roast> f8: fg for foreground
[08:46] <rukuartic> fiendskull9: I don't know, you can use wine though
[08:46] <afief> gnomefreak: E: Malformed line 130 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)
[08:46] <Xenguy> f8: fg
[08:46] <gnomefreak> f8 dont know what ctrl z does never used it
[08:46] <Xenguy> f8: (for 'foreground')
[08:47] <roast> Xenguy: :P
[08:47] <rukuartic> gnomefreak: ctrl z is the same as (almost) <command> &
[08:47] <f8> thanks..
[08:47] <fiendskull9> rukuartic, but wine doesnt work for xfire, as xfire immediately minimizes to task bar
[08:47] <Xenguy> gnomefreak: suspends a job on the command-line
[08:47] <fiendskull9> and gamespy will try and launch c:/programfiles?game
[08:47] <gnomefreak> afief: dont copy the part with the numbers just look under that you will see the part that looks like where i pasted and paste that
[08:47] <Xenguy> roast: heh, now I see it
[08:47] <fiendskull9> not the linux command
[08:47] <rukuartic> fiendskull9: Run winecfg, tell it to put the program in the taskbar.
[08:47] <JoeMorris> Do you Ubuntu? (c)Canonical

[08:48] <roast> Xenguy: actually, I was only using 5 because I had my book open, and had to keep my page :)
[08:48] <Xenguy> roast: bah :P
[08:48] <roast> Xenguy: but heh
[08:48] <MrPockets> noob Q: how do i use the floppy drive?
[08:48] <NickGarvey> !floppy
[08:48] <ubotu> To mount floppy disks, see here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MakeFloppyDriveAvailableToEveryone
[08:48] <nny> ok... this is looking bad
[08:49] <rukuartic> Anyone know a good application to make tidy and clean looking graphs for web viewing? (Eg: System statistics like CPU/XFer etc)
[08:49] <nny> error 16 in grub
[08:49] <NickGarvey> nny: did you delete the linux partition?
[08:49] <Armagguedes> can someone tell me of a couple of guides to bringf a fresh (k)ubuntu install up to speed? (repos/tweaks/that sorto f thiung)
[08:49] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell nny about grub
[08:49] <gnomefreak> nny: that should tell you what the error is and help you fix it
[08:50] <roast> huh. I just realized how ubuntu's versioning system works.
[08:50] <gnomefreak> year/month
[08:50] <roast> year.number-of-month
[08:50] <nny> NickGarvey: no... gotta dual boot.. not new to linux, chrooted into the old root partition and trying to reinstall grub to the mbr
[08:50] <roast> that's weird though..
[08:50] <roast> gnomefreak: what happens in 2014?
[08:50] <Xenguy> roast: different, but seems to work alright
[08:50] <gnomefreak> 14.04
[08:50] <gnomefreak> or 4.04
[08:50] <nny> looking over ubotu stuff
[08:51] <roast> gnomefreak: hm.. 14.04 works
[08:51] <themachine> what ports do I usually need to forward for my ftp server?
[08:51] <xerxez> is splashscreen the thing that shows when it boots up?
[08:51] <themachine> 21 isn't working..
[08:51] <big> oh yeah, im going to see that tonight also
[08:51] <gnomefreak> xerxez: splash screen = the little thing when gnome loads
[08:52] <Xenguy> big: enjoy
[08:52] <Armagguedes> Xenguy Vendetta is getting some pretty awful reviews
[08:52] <NickGarvey> !offtopic
[08:52] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[08:52] <roast> themachine: you need to forward 21 and a range of data ports for ftp to work
[08:52] <NickGarvey> themachine: put on 20 also
[08:53] <Xenguy> NickGarvey: point taken (but sometimes it is not so busy in the channel)
[08:53] <big> I have a presario 2100 with ati igp320m video card...i cant get any display on my laptops lcd, i am using a secondary monitor to be able to trouble shoot...i am currently on ubuntu, any ideas on how i can get my display working?
[08:53] <xerxez> gnomefreak, okey, so it's the the ubuntu logo and the status of the boot?!? what's that called then? somehow it didn't show up after i reconfigured the new kernel
[08:53] <roast> themachine: if you're using proftpd, look up PassivePorts
[08:53] <gnomefreak> xerxez: usplash iirc
[08:53] <MrPockets> i made the changes the site on !floppy told me to, but how to i exit :-X
[08:53] <big> msg me if you have any ideas
[08:53] <NickGarvey> roast: do you know how well proftpd handles passive connections?  vsftpd it won't work for me
[08:53] <xerxez> gnomefreak, oh my.. you know where in menuconfig i can find it?
[08:54] <ruzgar> how can i make a .deb package from a .sh file?
[08:54] <gnomefreak> xerxez: you cant :( iirc
[08:54] <roast> NickGarvey: it works fine with the passiveport range defined.  I've never had any luck with proftpd and port 20
[08:54] <georgy> big ; try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:54] <rukuartic> I'm planning to install Ubuntu on an unpartitioned hard drive with windows, and I'd like to be able to dual boot without reformatting. When I install ubuntu, will it take over the boot loader with GRUB?
[08:54] <xerxez> gnomefreak, okey..
[08:54] <NickGarvey> well I guess I'll try it then
[08:54] <gnomefreak> ruzgar: you run .sh files not install
[08:54] <roast> NickGarvey: hey, it took me 5 years to figure it out :)
[08:54] <nny> so yeah.. i guess a grub-install would work.... not sure what broke it... filesystem is readable by livecd...
[08:54] <georgy> big : then you can change your configuration
[08:54] <RyanB> If anyone has a minute, I am having tourble mounting my ntfs and fat32 harddrives and i could use some help
[08:54] <NickGarvey> rukuartic: yes if you tell it too, but if you don't tehn you will only be able to boot windows
[08:54] <roast> NickGarvey: the annoying thing was the 21/20 + proftpd combo worked 25% of the time for that period.
[08:55] <MrPockets> NickGarvey, how do i save the changes i just made?
[08:55] <rukuartic> NickGarvey: So when you drop the CD in the box, it'll ask you if you want to dual boot, and if you tell it yes it'll take over the boot process?
[08:55] <NickGarvey> roast: mm well I guess I'll play
[08:55] <NickGarvey> MrPockets: to what?
[08:55] <MrPockets> i followed the steps on the !floppy site
[08:55] <big> nick garvey?
[08:55] <NickGarvey> rukuartic: no when you are installing grub config is an option at the end
[08:55] <big> you from wisconsin?
[08:55] <MrPockets> but now i dont know how to save them
[08:55] <NickGarvey> big: no, I am from new york
[08:56] <big> ok
[08:56] <NickGarvey> MrPockets: I'll look it over
[08:56] <nny> weird thing is, grub doesn't recognize windows or linux's filesystem
[08:56] <axisys> hi all when I run this it is failing
[08:56] <axisys> fakeroot debian/rules binary
[08:56] <axisys> /usr/bin/fakeroot: line 150: debian/rules: No such file or directory
[08:56] <rukuartic> NickGarvey: I'm not quite sure I understand,  its been a while since I installed ubuntu on anything. Does grub config get installed automatically, or do I have to run this myself
[08:56] <axisys> anyidea whats going on
[08:57] <axisys> i was folloing the steps on wiki to create mplayer from cvs like this
[08:57] <axisys> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MPlayerCVS?highlight=%28mplayer%29#head-e16c597c28ba6110cad2d1e560b0c22973d1ac0d
[08:57] <NickGarvey> rukuartic: I always do expert install, and theres a menu as you are installing, one of the choices on the menu is configure grub, I assume if you don't do that then grub will not be put on
[08:57] <gnomefreak> xerxez: i installed xubuntu-desktop and it changed mine to blue and black
[08:57] <NickGarvey> !tell MrPockets about fstab
[08:57] <nny> rukuartic: NickGarvey last install i did installer automagically did grub config
[08:57] <xerxez> gnomefreak, how?
[08:58] <axisys> !fakeroot
[08:58] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, axisys
[08:58] <NickGarvey> nny: was it on expert?
[08:58] <big> anyone know about displays on laptops not working?
[08:58] <rukuartic> NickGarvey: I just type "expert" at the install prompt? What if I'm doing this on a laptop, do I have to type anything for laptop?
[08:58] <nny> NickGarvey: no
[08:58] <gnomefreak> xerxez: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[08:58] <xerxez> gnomefreak, okey thanks
[08:59] <georgy> big : try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:59] <gnomefreak> ruzgar: laptop and desktop are same installer
[08:59] <big> ok thanks
[08:59] <nny> where is grub config fiel in ubuntu?
[08:59] <nny> file8
[08:59] <nny> meh file*
[08:59] <Ven] n^> is linux acpi=off the correct way to install without acpi ?
[08:59] <gnomefreak> nny: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:59] <georgy> nny : /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:00] <NickGarvey> Ven] n^: I am thinking noapic nolapic
[09:00] <gnomefreak> Ven] n^: you can change it in bios or in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:00] <RyanB> If anyone has a minute, I am having tourble mounting my ntfs and fat32 harddrives and i could use some help
[09:00] <gnomefreak> !ntfs
[09:00] <ubotu> ntfs is, like, the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[09:01] <RyanB> i had it mounted, but it wont mount again
[09:01] <nny> wow ubuntu livecd enviroment is kind of weak
[09:01] <MrPockets> NickGarvey, i made said changes, still doesnt work. do i need to reboot before i can access the drive?
[09:01] <roast> NickGarvey: another thing, I should say I've never used vsftp before. there may be a passiveports config directive, but I wouldn't know :)
[09:01] <NickGarvey> MrPockets: fstab is the filesystems that load on boot
[09:01] <NickGarvey> roast: there is, I just never got them working
[09:01] <MrPockets> so thats a yes
[09:01] <roast> NickGarvey: oh okay
[09:01] <ROBOd> anyboidy ... any ideas?
[09:02] <NickGarvey> MrPockets: yup
[09:02] <roast> NickGarvey: eventually I started liking rsync better :)
[09:02] <NickGarvey> roast: mm I should get a samba book, I don't know much about networking at all, even between 2 windows or 2 unix computers
[09:02] <Ven] n^> gah
[09:02] <Ven] n^> anyway
[09:02] <Ven] n^> trying to boot ubuntu for the first time and it stops at starting hotplug subsystem
[09:03] <Ven] n^> so i was thinking of installign without acpi
[09:03] <Ven] n^> thats why i did linux acpi=off
[09:03] <Ven] n^> heh
[09:03] <ArIeZ> having problems installing java on ubuntu anyone able to help
[09:03] <gnomefreak> !javadebs
[09:03] <roast> NickGarvey: if you do get around configuring samba, I'd recommend looking at (but not necessarily using) swat. it's a web-interface for configuring smb.conf by the samba team.
[09:03] <roast> NickGarvey: makes it easier to see every major component/functionality that samba has to offer right off the bat
[09:04] <NickGarvey> roast: samba web administration something.. right?
[09:04] <roast> NickGarvey: yup.
[09:04] <gnomefreak> ArIeZ: here try the debs  http://mirror2.ubuntulinux.nl
[09:04] <possie> i plugged in a ISA soundcard, but ubuntu doesn't detect it automatically is there away to make ubuntu search for it ?

[09:05] <meow> hello, what do i need to install to be able to watch avi files and listen to mp3 files
[09:05] <possie> crimsun, that's a problem as well, i don't know :-) i can't see it when i do lspci (sounds kind of logicall to me though ;-))
[09:05] <Xenguy> !tell meow about restricted
[09:05] <crimsun> possie: lspci wouldn't list it, correct. Use pnpdump -v or lspnp -v
[09:06] <aridese> how do i use "deb" lines?
[09:06] <ITS_FOR_REAL> sudo ./mvdsv +gamedir 4on4 -port 28403 +map dm3

[09:08] <georgy> meow : in a shell
[09:09] <ArIeZ> anyone know how i can install a bin file
[09:09] <tola_> Hi, I've just installed ubuntu on a new AMD-64 computer and it installs fine but it freezes at the gnome loading screen. Where do I start to fix the problem?
[09:09] <sethrd> Forget about linux-laptops.com use tux-mobil.org
[09:09] <possie> crimsun, lspnp: /proc/bus/pnp not available    that's what i get when i try lspnp
[09:10] <meow> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[09:10] <meow> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[09:10] <meow> what does that mean
[09:10] <tristanmike> meow, close synaptic or update manager
[09:10] <philipp> tola, I would install another desktop like kde an look what happens
[09:10] <HOEHAVER> can someone tell me were i can find the codecs at so i can play music for ubuntu 5.10?
[09:10] <georgy> meow : sudo apt-get instal ....
[09:10] <gnomefreak> meow: do you have synaptic open?
[09:10] <tristanmike> meow, it means there are two instances of apt trying to run
[09:10] <tola2> philipp: hmm, ok
[09:11] <tristanmike> meow, usually your trying something from the command line while you have synaptic or update manager open
[09:11] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell HOEHAVER about codecs
[09:11] <philipp> kubuntu-desktop, this might be a way. but before you do this, check the logs at /var/log
[09:11] <joevandyk> I have a script in /etc/init.d... how do I get it to run at boot?
[09:11] <philipp> ubotu tell philipp about codecs
[09:12] <j072pe> helloo
[09:12] <ab0rted> ubotu tell ab0rted about codecs
[09:12] <Xenguy> joevandyk: does Admin > Services work?
[09:12] <gnomefreak> !msg the bot
[09:12] <ubotu> Please message the bot (me) in private, more info about the bot: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[09:12] <joevandyk> Xenguy, ain't listed in there
[09:13] <Xenguy> joevandyk: try installing rcconf then
[09:13] <tjansson> Eventhoug i disabled the login sound upon loggin into gnome it continues to blast away - is there a more fundemental way to turn it off?
[09:13] <grogoreo> hi
[09:13] <Xenguy> joevandyk: run it from the command-line and you get a primitive gui of sorts
[09:13] <j072pe> somebody knows how to run the "Find your layout by pressing some keys"..... dpkg-reconfigure -something-... or some script??
[09:13] <Xenguy> joevandyk: that should work
[09:14] <majd> hey
[09:14] <j072pe> after the instalation
[09:14] <Xenguy> joevandyk: or bum now that I think of it
[09:14] <majd> is there a way to paste into multiple folders?
[09:14] <Xenguy> majd: example?
[09:14] <grogoreo> when trying to setup XGL on Dapper, it basically messed up and I now have no window border. I can get rid of all the entries in GDM etc, but for some reason I can't delete entries in the Sessions window -only delete
[09:15] <majd> i have a file (style.css) and i want to paste it into 10 folders
[09:15] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: try #xgl-ubuntu or #ubuntu+1
[09:15] <Ven] n> i wanna add "snd_hda_intel" and "snd_hda_codec" to /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[09:15] <Ven] n> how do i do that when i cant boot past "starting hotplug subsystem"
[09:15] <Xenguy> majd: I can't think of anything faster than command-line cp
[09:15] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, thanks I will
[09:15] <patrick52222> hello i just installed limewire but it doesnt load, what could be the problem
[09:15] <possie> crimsun, oops got disconnected, anyways  sudo pnpdump  shows me "No boards found" so i guess my soundcard is broken?
[09:16] <majd> Xenguy, k, thanks
[09:16] <kent> patrick52222: have you made it executable?
[09:16] <frank23> Ven] n: boot the recovery kernel. then edit with nano?
[09:16] <NickGarvey> !limewire
[09:16] <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.
[09:16] <patrick52222> Kent: how i do that
[09:16] <possie> crimsun, strange thing is tough that unbutu did load sound drivers, so maybe unbutu did see something related to sounds cards
[09:17] <djk_> is there a deb package of azureus 2.4.0.2?
[09:17] <georgy> Ven] n : go in the bios and disable your soundcard then reboot
[09:17] <Ven] n> frank23, recovery stops after som snd-intel-thing
[09:17] <jarkus> co u was
[09:17] <gnomefreak> !azureus
[09:17] <ubotu> well, azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[09:17] <crimsun> possie: not broken, simply not detected

[09:18] <possie> crimsun, your right, i'll bring down the box, brb :-)
[09:19] <djk_> gnomefreak: i know that outdated page...
[09:19] <patrick52222> i installed frostwire but it doesnt load either
[09:19] <b-or> hey... i've got AMD64... is it recommended to install the 64bit version of ubuntu? (heard there are some problems with FireFox and Flash)
[09:19] <ArIeZ> i have typed sudo aptitude install sysutils
[09:19] <jarkus> please help me how instaled drivers card vati?
[09:19] <jarkus> ati
[09:19] <philipp> patrick, there must be some kind of error. try starting it from the console
[09:19] <ArIeZ> then i type sudo dos2unix /usr/lib/frostwire/runfrost.sh
[09:19] <JoeMorris> doh
[09:19] <j072pe> somebody knows how to run the "Find your layout by pressing some keys"..... dpkg-reconfigure -something-... or some script??
[09:20] <gnomefreak> djk_: than you will be compiling im sure of until someone makes a file for easier install but i doubt it
[09:20] <jarkus> ok thanks
[09:20] <patrick52222> how do i start it in terminal
[09:20] <ArIeZ> dos2unix: Unable to access file /usr/lib/frostwire/runfrost.sh.
[09:20] <philipp> just run the command in the terminal
[09:20] <ArIeZ> why am i not able to access the file??
[09:21] <philipp> start the terminal (I dont know where it is exactly in gnome) and enter the command
[09:21] <void^> djk_: the generic linux package at azureus.sf.net is ready to use.
[09:21] <djk_> void^: i know that as well
[09:21] <patrick52222> pkilipp: what command sorry im new at this
[09:22] <Armagguedes> can someone tell me of a couple of guides to bringf a fresh (k)ubuntu install up to speed? (repos/tweaks/that sorto f thiung)
[09:22] <sethrd> How do I make it so when I double click on a title bar, the window is rolled up instead of maximized?
[09:22] <Armagguedes> sethrd you mean it shades?
[09:23] <sethrd> Armagguedes: Yeah, shades.
[09:23] <Unity> can someone look at this apt-get problem: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10769 i am unable to install anything i always get this problem
[09:23] <Armagguedes> i kde i had to change the window behaviour and then "apply to all"
[09:23] <frank23> Armagguedes: check out easyubuntu if you want a script to do it for you. If you want to learn how to do it, there are wiki pages as well
[09:23] <Xenguy> sethrd: that option is somewhere under Preferences
[09:23] <sethrd> Thanks Xenguy.
[09:23] <philipp> the command to start frostwire. Try frostwire
[09:23] <Armagguedes> *in kde*
[09:23] <philipp> type fr and press TAB
[09:23] <Armagguedes> i suppose in gnome it wont be much different
[09:23] <philipp> patrick you use gnome or kde?
[09:24] <sethrd> Oh, there it is. System -> Preferences -> Titlebar Action -> Roll Up.
[09:24] <Armagguedes> btw from where can i update Gnome to v2.14? from its website or is it in one of the Repos (multiverse restricted etc)?
[09:24] <patrick52222> gnome
[09:24] <gnomefreak> Armagguedes: in breezy you cant
[09:24] <sethrd> Armagguedes: You have to use GARnome on Breezy.
[09:24] <Armagguedes> hoe do?
[09:24] <gnomefreak> sethrd: does it work without lib issues?
[09:24] <marlun> How do I install a .bin file?
[09:24] <sethrd> gnomefreak: Haven't done it yet.
[09:25] <mecanismo22> howdy
[09:25] <gnomefreak> marlun: you dont install a bin
[09:25] <mecanismo22> is it possible to play .WPL files?
[09:25] <marlun> gnomefreak: oh...what do I do with a bin file?
[09:25] <gnomefreak> im thinking you will have depends issues all over the place if you try to install on breezy
[09:25] <sethrd> You do.
[09:25] <ITS_FOR_REAL> Fatal error: Hunk_Alloc: bad size: -1412431872
[09:25] <ITS_FOR_REAL>  when starting mvdsv... what to do?
[09:25] <sethrd> It's better to just install Dapper. Dapper isn't THAT buggy.
[09:25] <gnomefreak> marlun: where did you get a bin file from and what do the instructions say?
[09:25] <Unity> how can i set the default the display manager to gnome? kde broke, and apt-get broke as well =(
[09:26] <patrick52222> this is wat i get when i type frostwire in the terminal  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10772
[09:26] <philipp> apt-get MUSTNT be broken
[09:26] <marlun> gnomefreak: It's the uml program Poseidon
[09:26] <fromvega> I'm using Ubuntu for a while and I'm liking it. I'm not a Linux expert yet, so I have some doubts. Everytime new releases of softwares come out but no packages are available to be installed using apt-get, like PHP5 and the new versions of SVN, but they are available from their own sites.
[09:26] <fromvega>  My question is: how should I install them, if I want to use these new versions of softwares that are not available through apt-get yet? There is any problem?
[09:26] <Xenguy> !roll up
[09:26] <ubotu> I guess roll up is System -> Preferences -> Titlebar Action -> Roll Up.
[09:26] <gnomefreak> marlun: you have site handy?
[09:26] <philipp> unity, this would be death of your system
[09:26] <Xenguy> sethrd: tx :-)
[09:26] <gnomefreak> wait a min
[09:26] <philipp> unity, what is the error you get
[09:26] <sethrd> Xenguy: Sure thing.
[09:27] <gnomefreak> sudo dpkg -i file.bin might work
[09:27] <Unity> philipp: yeah, the newest kernel also doens't boot, i'm using an old one
[09:27] <gnomefreak> Unity: run sudo apt-get update please
[09:27] <marlun> gnomefreak: ok, I'll try.
[09:27] <dabaR> fromvega: you could compile from source.
[09:27] <philipp> patrick, there seems something to be broken with frostwire, reinstall it correctly
[09:27] <gnomefreak> marlun: first cd to where the file is saved
[09:27] <fromvega> dabaR: but is there any problem with that?
[09:28] <ksmurf> is there still a dapper forum?
[09:28] <dabaR> fromvega: reform your question.
[09:28] <dabaR> #ubuntu+1
[09:28] <patrick52222> cou;d it be my java
[09:28] <gnomefreak> new releases will not be put in breezy only updates
[09:28] <Unity> gnomefreak: i did, and i still get the same problem when i try to install stuff
[09:28] <gnomefreak> Unity: does sudo apt-get update work?
[09:28] <frank23> fromvega: that is due to ubuntu policy: programs don't get upgraded within a release (6 months).  if you want something newer, you either have to find .debs built for ubuntu or compile yourself.  you only need to upgrade if a new feature is necessary to you though
[09:29] <Unity> gnomefreak: yes it worked. the last line is Reading package lists...done
[09:29] <sethrd> See, I want the Deskbar.
[09:29] <Xenguy> !tell fromvega about checkinstall
[09:29] <gnomefreak> Unity: apt is working just fine
[09:29] <gnomefreak> Unity: what are you trying to install?
[09:29] <Xenguy> fromvega: ^^ if you do decide to use source
[09:29] <sethrd> !tell sethrd about checkinstall
[09:29] <Unity> gnomefreak: bittorrent, bittornado, or newer linux images
[09:30] <patrick52222> phlipp: could it be my java playin up
[09:30] <gnomefreak> sethrd: checkinstall is the best ;)
[09:30] <sethrd> gnomefreak: Just learned about it.
[09:30] <gnomefreak> Unity: are they not in synaptic?
[09:30] <fromvega> What I'm a little concerned is that with synaptic I can install, update and uninstall softwares easyly. And I do not know know for sure how to remove them or update them after I manually install them
[09:31] <gnomefreak> !find bittornado
[09:31] <dabaR> fromvega: red what ubotu told you, when Xenguy told it to.
[09:31] <ubotu> Ubuntu Package Listing of 'bittornado' (2 shown): bittornado ;; bittornado-gui.
[09:31] <Unity> gnomefreak: let my try synaptic...
[09:31] <gnomefreak> !info bittornado
[09:31] <philipp> unity, I would do a apt-get upgrade to solve your problems.
[09:31] <ubotu> bittornado: (bittorrent client with enhanced curses interface), section net, is optional. Version: 0.3.11-4ubuntu4 (breezy), Packaged size: 148 kB, Installed size: 840 kB
[09:31] <frank23> fromvega: checkinstall  makes a .deb and installs it. if you use it, programs you compile from source will show up in synaptic
[09:32] <gnomefreak> Unity: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[09:32] <toni__> What is the best media player for ubuntu? something like bsplayer?
[09:32] <gnomefreak> toni__: mplayer?
[09:32] <djk_> toni__: vlc
[09:32] <NickGarvey> toni__: xmms
[09:32] <fromvega> frank23: nice
[09:32] <Armagguedes> btw from where can i update Gnome to v2.14? for instances, w/ KDE (v3.5.1) i just need to add its official repo in order to have it updated...
[09:32] <georgy> tony__ : xine ?
[09:32] <NickGarvey> toni__: totem
[09:32] <gnomefreak> Armagguedes: you cant
[09:32] <gnomefreak> Armagguedes: gnome 2.14 will _not_ work in breezy
[09:32] <philipp> patrick, i do not exactly know. just guessing: java doesnt seem to be the problem rather the frostwire. but maybe you gotta reinstall both
[09:32] <NickGarvey> toni__: point is, best isn't really that clear, you have some choices heh
[09:33] <Armagguedes> crap. tottally impossible?
[09:33] <gnomefreak> Armagguedes: yes
[09:33] <Armagguedes> why not then?
[09:33] <FlannelKing> Armagguedes: the problem with either, gnome or KDE, is ubuntu makes a LOT of changes to get things to work how we want.
[09:33] <Ven] n^> i get disconnected all the time
[09:33] <Ven] n^> uhh, guys, what the hell does Alt + Sys Rq (Pri Sc) + E do?`

[09:34] <gnomefreak> Unity: please paste the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin please
[09:35] <Unity> philipp: i'm afraid apt-get upgrade will download the packages and then fail to install them all
[09:35] <philipp> whats the error?
[09:35] <Unity> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10770
[09:35] <philipp> run it in the console to see more
[09:35] <Armagguedes> FlannelKing cant i even compile from source?
[09:35] <Ven] n^> what does Alt + Sys Rq (Pri Sc) + E do guys?
[09:35] <Unity> philipp: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10769
[09:35] <gnomefreak> Armagguedes: it will not run on breezy kernel
[09:36] <Armagguedes> ok
[09:36] <axisys> anyone knows where i can get more info on fakeroot
[09:36] <axisys> this one is failing fakeroot debian/rules binary
[09:36] <toothpick> I'm using xorg and need to modify the {directory}/debian/control file and change xlibs-dev to libx11-dev. How do I find where that file is located?
[09:37] <Unity> toothpick: `slocate xlibs-dev`
[09:37] <gnomefreak> Unity: run sudo apt-get update let me know of errors
[09:37] <djk_> does adept log its actions?
[09:37] <wd3> gnomefreak hey thanks for the help the other day, check out my screenshot http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10774
[09:37] <Armagguedes> is "clearlooks" dependent on 2.14?
[09:37] <philipp> patrick, when you have mutliverse  enabled you can install: sun-j2re1.5. Check out ubuntuusers.de when you are german. The wiki ist the best
[09:38] <gnomefreak> Armagguedes: i think the name changed to human looks or something like that
[09:38] <Unity> gnomefreak: it runs fine. no errors
[09:39] <philipp> toothpick, you can find files very quick when you run "locate WHATEVER". But you should have run sudo updatedb recently
[09:39] <meow> i cant seem to find the package that i need to install that plays avi and mp3 files
[09:39] <Ven] n^> how to set myself as su?
[09:39] <toothpick> ok thanks
[09:39] <NickGarvey> su user

[09:39] <gps> sudo -s
[09:39] <Ven] n^> i mean.. how to set password for su ?
[09:39] <NickGarvey> will switch to user

[09:39] <Ven] n^> su has no password yet i believe
[09:39] <Unity> Ven] n: sudo -i
[09:39] <meow> i cant seem to find the package that i need to install that plays avi and mp3 files help please
[09:39] <Ven] n^> didnt specify it in installation
[09:39] <robersonfox> hi
[09:39] <georgy> Ven] n^ : use sudo
[09:40] <Armagguedes> apt-get install kde-desktop installs KDE with all the menu binds right (even binds to the Gnome menu, in order to share apps)?
[09:40] <Ven] n^> ok
[09:40] <NickGarvey> Armagguedes: yes
[09:40] <gnomefreak> wd3: thats nice i liike it just wish i had time to code it here :(
[09:40] <NewbRyan> I'm hoping someone can help me, im pretty sure i installed eterm, though im not sure how to use it
[09:40] <gnomefreak> Armagguedes: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:40] <NickGarvey> Armagguedes: which is annoying with xfce and such because everything is doubled, 2 gaims 2 firefoxs etc
[09:40] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: i only have one of each
[09:41] <gnomefreak> and i have 6 des
[09:41] <gnomefreak> maybe 5
[09:41] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: how would I change it then?
[09:41] <grogoreo> how can I restore my window border decoration?
[09:41] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: the menu editer
[09:41] <NickGarvey> !menu
[09:41] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[09:41] <jsteidl> Anybody having display-problems with liferea 1.0.6 (dapper-release)?
[09:41] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: wheres that
[09:41] <toothpick> Thanks again.
[09:41] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: breezy?
[09:41] <Armagguedes> 2 apps or 2 links?
[09:41] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: yup
[09:41] <georgy> NewbRyan : use it or start it ?
[09:41] <NewbRyan> start it
[09:42] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: applications>system tools>menu editer
[09:42] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: under which env?
[09:42] <georgy> NewbRyan : the command is Eterm
[09:42] <gnomefreak> thats gnome
[09:42] <meow> i cant seem to find the package that i need to install that plays avi and mp3 files help please
[09:42] <NewbRyan> thanks
[09:42] <majd> Hi, i'm using the default printer (i have a photosmart hp 3210) but there are no options whatsoever...i need the option to print draft etc.
[09:42] <NewbRyan> not found
[09:42] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: the xfce menu editer is in the menu cant remember the name
[09:42] <cmatheson> openoffice can export to pdf, but can it not import a pdf?
[09:43] <Unity> majd: did you install the printer by going to System | Admintistartion | Printer... or something like that?
[09:43] <Armagguedes> crap i need WPAsupplicant
[09:43] <NewbRyan> wait, i forgot to cap the E
[09:43] <grogoreo> I can't run 'System > Preferences > Window'. It says: Cannot start the preferences application for your window manager. Window manager "unknown" has not registered a configuration tool
[09:43] <Unity> cmatheson: importing pdfs is really tricky
[09:43] <majd> Unity, yeah
[09:43] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: did you try at the top of the screen wher eit says system?
[09:44] <Unity> majd: ok that's the full extent of my printer knowledge sorry...
[09:44] <cmatheson> Unity: blarg, ok... do you know if it will handle postscript?
[09:44] <spacemonkey> Considering i've never used Linux before and everyone seems to be pointing me to use Ubuntu, is there any guide anywhere on the internet to install this version of Linux and have an option to either boot with Linux or Windows?
[09:44] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: you should see admin after clicking on system
[09:44] <possie> crimsun, okee after looking at the board for a while, SIS, sinds it reads "S521-sa"
[09:44] <cmatheson> spacemonkey: i think it just does all that for you
[09:44] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell spacemonkey about ubuntu
[09:44] <majd> Unity, lol, thanks anyhow
[09:44] <Unity> cmatheson: both pdf and postscript are much more than just formatted text, if there were a feature to import either to ooffice, it would be very buggy and probably never work
[09:44] <georgy> NewbRyan : and ?
[09:44] <spacemonkey> Heh, thats funky.
[09:45] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, yeah that's is how I go the error by going to System then preferences and then window. I can see the administration menu
[09:45] <NewbRyan> it worked, now ill try to figure out how to load a themer or something
[09:45] <crimsun> possie: can you cull more information than that via a Web search?
[09:45] <meow> i cant seem to find the package that i need to install that plays avi and mp3 files help please
[09:45] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: what is the error you are getting?
[09:45] <possie> crimsun, well it looks like a Sertek S521  as well :-)
[09:45] <ic56> !tell spacemokey about dualboot
[09:45] <graveson> where is the startup log on ubuntu /linux
[09:46] <grogoreo> It says: Cannot start the preferences application for your window manager. Window manager "unknown" has not registered a configuration tool
[09:46] <spacemonkey> gnomefreak: I am already at the site and I did read through. Just curious if there are any easy installation guides or is it as simple as point and click? Cause i have a RAID 0 setup running on my machine. I need to know what kind of file system i need to have and how to go about formatting only one partition and stuff like that.
[09:46] <ic56> !tell spacemonkey about dualboot
[09:46] <NewbRyan> i really wanted to figure out how to get this thing to go transparent, that was the point
[09:46] <Unity> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10775
[09:46] <cmatheson> Unity: ok.  do you know of any utilities to just work on pdfs?  or is adobe stuff the only way to go down that route
[09:46] <spacemonkey> thanks ic56 :)
[09:46] <Unity> cmatheson: i don't even know adobe things that can work on pdf's
[09:46] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: are you using gnome?
[09:46] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, yes
[09:46] <Unity> cmatheson: as far as i know, you can only import them and use them as if they were images...not edit them
[09:47] <TheJiveTurkey> Does any one here use Fluxbox, im having some prolbems with getting applications to start when i log in
[09:47] <Unity> cmatheson: although acrobat professional might be able to do it...never tried it though
[09:47] <gnomefreak> Unity: why are you trying to install a kernel?
[09:47] <meow> hi, i cant seem to find the codec's or plugins needed to play avi or mp3 files, can anyone help me?
[09:47] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: are you trying to do this in terminal or gui?
[09:47] <cmatheson> Unity: ok, i guess that's all i need to know, thanks
[09:48] <possie> crimsun, funny there is a "ATAPI IDE" controller on the board as well :-)
[09:48] <jon_> meow, For the avi files you need win32codecs.
[09:48] <Unity> gnomefreak: i dunno what to install anymore...when i was turning on my comp today, it got stuck at the boot screen, so i tried another kernel and it worked except kde segfaulted
[09:48] <possie> crimsun, and joystick
[09:48] <Unity> gnomefreak: so either i install debian (but i have no empty cds!) or i fix ubuntu
[09:48] <gnomefreak> Unity: if you reboot what happens?
[09:48] <ic56> graveson: /var/log/message, I think
[09:48] <ubushine> !tell ubushine about dualboot
[09:48] <Ven] n^> doesnt ubuntu use rpm?
[09:49] <gnomefreak> Ven] n^: no
[09:49] <gnomefreak> Ven] n^: .debs
[09:49] <cmatheson> Unity: oh wait, sorry one more question... you say it can be opened as an image w/ some software?  i really just need to shrink a pdf down and import it into another document... i haven't used a word-processor or anything like that sine high-school though so i'm not very apt at these things
[09:49] <meow> jon_ where can i find the win32codecs at?
[09:49] <Ven] n^> thanks
[09:49] <NewbRyan> does anyone know how to make eterm transparent?
[09:49] <gnomefreak> !w32codecs
[09:49] <ubotu> w32codecs is, like, a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
[09:49] <gnomefreak> NewbRyan: in the settings for it
[09:49] <Unity> gnomefreak: it stops right after Checking Battery State... [ OK ]  and then nothitg happens
[09:49] <gnomefreak> Unity: laptop?
[09:49] <NewbRyan> where are they?
[09:49] <Unity> gnomefreak: nope desktop
[09:49] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, sorry but trying to do what? My problem is that I don't have a window border so no Clearlooks border etc. I'm running X (GUI) but it seems that after me tinkering setting up XGL which I have now fully reverted back to normal, it seems that the window decoration is not specified
[09:50] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: your using dapper?
[09:50] <TF> I booted my ubuntu livecd 5.10.  How can I access my hard drive?  I need to back up files.
[09:50] <zF> How difficult is it to make a partition for Windows and install Windows, getting dual booting working correctly while only having Ubuntu installed
[09:50] <georgy> NewbRyan: baground --> toogle transparency
[09:50] <Unity> cmatheson: adobe indesign can import pdfs and shrink them and place them around on a bigger page as if it were an image
[09:50] <TheJiveTurkey> Does anyone have any experience with ~/.fluxbox/startup
[09:50] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, yes. And I know it is VERY risky using dapper
[09:50] <Ven] n^> do i need to add repositories to a fresh install of ubuntu?
[09:50] <Unity> cmatheson: either the old or the new version
[09:50] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: please tell me what the command uname -r says
[09:50] <cmatheson> Unity: ok, thanks
[09:50] <NewbRyan> that makes my background come through, it wont be able to let me see the windows open behind it?
[09:51] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, 2.6.15-19-386
[09:51] <meow> ok i installed the win32codecs, do i need to restart cuz its still not workin
[09:51] <HOEHAVER> how do i make my 2nd hard drive acessable
[09:51] <crimsun> possie: try sudo modprobe snd-sb8
[09:51] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: please go to #xgl-ubuntu for xgl related issues and #ubuntu+1 for dapper related issues
[09:51] <Unity> gnomefreak: should i fsck my main disk, or perhaps switch to gnome and never install anything ever again?
[09:51] <dabaR> ubuntu-xgl?
[09:51] <gnomefreak> Unity: lol
[09:51] <NewbRyan> hoehaver ive been trying to do the same thing
[09:51] <Unity> HOEHAVER: have you mounted it?
[09:51] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, I have but no one is about to help
[09:51] <HOEHAVER> no
[09:52] <gnomefreak> dabaR: #xgl-ubuntu is more or less always there
[09:52] <HOEHAVER> but i was before
[09:52] <HOEHAVER> the system sees it
[09:52] <zF> How difficult is it to make a partition for Windows and install Windows, getting dual booting working correctly while only having Ubuntu installed
[09:52] <HOEHAVER> if i go to system> administrator> disk
[09:52] <HOEHAVER> it shows up
[09:52] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, though it shouldn't be anything to do with XGL anymore as I have uninstalled it and everything connected with it
[09:52] <NewbRyan> so me hoehaver and zf are trying to do the same thing?
[09:52] <gnomefreak> Unity: i would try in #kubuntu for that i dont know enough about your issue
[09:52] <Unity> HOEHAVER: /dev/hdd1       /home/unity/Juice ext3 rw,suid,dev,auto,async,user 0 0
[09:52] <Unity> HOEHAVER: put a line like that in your fstab
[09:52] <TF> Quite likely.
[09:52] <zF> I need a Windows install so I can play Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
[09:52] <Blissex> zF: depends... It is not too difficult if you have some idea of disk partitioning and backups.
[09:53] <meow> There were no decoders found to handle the stream, you might need to install the corresponding plugins
[09:53] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: that i cant say i uninstalled xgl and synaptic never worked from the time i installed it
[09:53] <sercha> hola
[09:53] <Blissex> zF: ahhhh Oblivion...
[09:53] <Blissex> zF: considered Cedega/WineX?
[09:53] <Unity> gnomefreak: since so much other stuff wasn't working i thought maybe the problem was deeper than kde
[09:53] <HOEHAVER> where do i find fstab?
[09:53] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: seeing as xgl changed your desktop settings you might want to find out what to change back
[09:53] <HOEHAVER> do i type that in into the terminal
[09:53] <georgy> HOEHAVER : /etc/fstab
[09:53] <Unity> HOEHAVER: /etc/fstab make sure you know what you are doing if your gonna modify fstab
[09:53] <zF> Blissex, eh, I'm not really looking to get that setup.
[09:53] <gnomefreak> Unity: ok lets start from beginning what is happening when you try to do what?
[09:53] <zF> Blissex, can I do it solely with cfdisk?
[09:54] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, well I could run the setup for GDM
[09:54] <TF> Ah! Thank you.  I didn't realize there was a System, Administration, Disks.  I thought it would auto-show in fstab.  I'll play with that.  Thank you!
[09:54] <HOEHAVER> ok
[09:54] <graveson> anyone has experience with maxtor RAID 0 external drive
[09:54] <zF> Blissex, then install Windows on that partition - then use a Live CD to reinstall Grub somehow?
[09:54] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: i told you where to get help from please use those sources for help or try the xgl wiki
[09:55] <Blissex> zF: you should really backup, and use 'parted' to resize.
[09:55] <Unity> gnomefreak: when i try to turn on, it hangs after Checking Battery State... [ OK ] . when i set grub to use an older linux image, it loads, and then KDE segfaults so X shuts down, and then when i try to install something, i get that error that i showed you
[09:55] <glitch> when I try to connect to my proftpd server I get 500 Sorry, no server available to handle request on 192.168.1.100
[09:55] <gnomefreak> grogoreo: you can see if anyone in #ubuntu-xgl also but normally not really
[09:55] <Unity> gnomefreak: and everything was working fine last night, and i don't remember doing any changes to the system
[09:55] <Unity> gnomefreak: except touching the cpu fan to make sure it was snug against the processor
[09:55] <glitch> I'm forwarding ports 20 and 21 on my router
[09:55] <gnomefreak> Unity: what updates did you do (if any)
[09:55] <Unity> gnomefreak: none
[09:55] <jerware> Rawplayer: y0
[09:56] <zF> Blissex, back up?
[09:56] <Blissex> zF: well, shrinking a partition is a rather risky operation.
[09:56] <Paradoxx> does any1 know of a program i can use to transfer images to my ipod nano?
[09:56] <gnomefreak> Unity: if you try to boot the latest kernel what does it do?
[09:56] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Paradoxx about ipod
[09:57] <gps> ntfsresize shrinks ntfs properly
[09:57] <eltano> existe el canal ubuntu-es?
[09:57] <Unity> gnomefreak: everything goes fine until Checking Battery State ... [ OK ]  then it just sits there
[09:57] <NickGarvey> !es
[09:57] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[09:57] <NickGarvey> eltano: si :)
[09:57] <NewbRyan> i could see my fat32 hd ysterday, and i cant see it today, can anyone help me get it mounted again?
[09:57] <ic56> glitch: are the ftp client and server on the same network?
[09:57] <eltano> gracias
[09:57] <NickGarvey> de nada
[09:57] <gnomefreak> Unity: how long does it sit there?
[09:57] <glitch> yes
[09:57] <Unity> gnomefreak: for over an hour
[09:58] <ic56> glitch: so the connection doesn't go though the router which you mentioned?
[09:58] <phrowzen> NewbRyan, mount -t fat32 /dev/<insert address here> <insert-mount-point-here>
[09:58] <Unity> gnomefreak: after that, i just restarted
[09:58] <zF> Blissex, what is partd? and what do you mean by backup?
[09:58] <Unity> Paradoxx: maybe gtkpod
[09:58] <eltano> hola
[09:58] <Kazama_Kazuki> http://www.monstersgame.com.pt/?ac=vid&vid=19018356
[09:58] <gnomefreak> Unity: can you paste the contents of /boot/grub/menu.lst to pastebin please
[09:58] <glitch> yes, it goes through the router
[09:58] <Blissex> zF: 'parted'
[09:58] <Paradoxx> gnomefreak: thats only tells you about music and video, i need to transfer picture
[09:58] <glitch> each computer is side by side on the router
[09:59] <Kazama_Kazuki> http://www.monstersgame.com.pt/?ac=vid&vid=19018356  nice vid!!
[09:59] <Blissex> zF: what do you mean by backup? is probably the single scariest question (for yourself) that you can ask :-)
[09:59] <zF> Blissex, does that make it relatively easy?
[09:59] <ic56> glitch: "side by side"?
[09:59] <glitch> like one pc is 192.168.1.100 and the other is 192.168.1.101
[09:59] <SForan> How would one go about setting up an IRC channel?
[09:59] <Blissex> zF: 'parted' and 'qtparted' (the GUI counterpart) make it easier indeed.
[09:59] <ic56> glitch: and what are the router's IP numbers?
[09:59] <glitch> those were it
[09:59] <NewbRyan> it said unknown file system
[10:00] <NewbRyan> vfat?
[10:00] <zF> Blissex, by "back-up" do you mean just... back up my files?
[10:00] <ubushine> NewbRyan, try here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:00] <francoisxavier> slt
[10:00] <NewbRyan> i did that
[10:00] <Blissex> zF: yes :-)
[10:00] <cmatheson> i don't have kde installed, but i'm using scribus (which is qt-based), is there a way to change the style of the widgets w/out installing kde?
[10:00] <Metalcore> I was thinking about switching from WinXP to ubuntu, but the box I'll be using is on a wireless network connecting using something like this: http://www.dlink.com/products/?sec=0&pid=358 (not the exact same, but similar and the same company)
[10:00] <francoisxavier> c est ou french
[10:00] <Unity> gnomefreak: this might take a while since i'm using a non-scrolling terminal...
[10:00] <NewbRyan> it says failed when i boot up and it mounts local file systems
[10:00] <patrick52222> how do i go about installing this  sun-j2re1.5_1.5.0+update06_i386.deb
[10:00] <Metalcore> I was wondering if ubuntu would support it or something...
[10:00] <zF> Blissex, right. Thanks. Is qtparted in the repositories?
[10:00] <patrick52222> do i just click
[10:01] <Kazama_Kazuki> http://www.monstersgame.com.pt/?ac=vid&vid=19018356 THIS IS NICE!
[10:01] <tristanmike> patrick52222: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[10:01] <NickGarvey> !info qtparted

[10:01] <ic56> glitch: this doesn't make sense.  You've mentioned 3 boxes: server, client, and router.  You're only mentioning 2 IP addresses when there should be 4.
[10:01] <Unity> is there a way to put a whole file onto the X clipboard
[10:01] <zF>  NickGarvey, thanks - a useful command in the future :)
[10:01] <NickGarvey> :)
[10:01] <glitch> dsl connection goes to the static ip 70.109.157.174
[10:02] <whyami> Metalcore: I'm sure you can get the wireless working, if not in Linux natively, then using the Windows driver and ndiswrapper. Give ubuntu a spin with the live CD. Also, somewhere there's a hardware compatibility list. (somebody help me here).
[10:02] <gnomefreak> Unity: hold on a sec
[10:02] <NewbRyan> ubushine: i followed that wiki, but when i restart the computer it says failed when it tried to load the local filesystem at boot
[10:02] <glitch> ifconfig on both pcs only mention the ips 192.168.1.100 and ...101
[10:02] <Blissex> zF: the best way to do this things is always to have a spare backup disk, create a new set of partitions, and copy your stuff over in  the !info parted
[10:02] <Kazama_Kazuki> http://www.monstersgame.com.pt/?ac=vid&vid=19018356
[10:02] <Blissex> !info parted

[10:02] <Kazama_Kazuki> http://www.monstersgame.com.pt/?ac=vid&vid=19018356 LOOOOL wtf??
[10:03] <ic56> glitch: ok, so the client and server boxes are both on the same physical ethernet as one side of the router.  So ftp'ing from one to the other doesn't go through the router.  Do I have the picture right?
[10:03] <NewbRyan> ubushine: just now when i tried to mount it again it says it is already mounted or busy
[10:03] <zF> Blissex, do you recommend I backup just my MBR, I'm confused
[10:03] <Ven] n^> ive downloaded 915resolution.. but make install just says command not found
[10:03] <Ven] n^> any ideas?
[10:03] <SForan> How would one go about setting up an IRC channel?
[10:03] <glitch> sorry, I meant each pc must go through the router
[10:04] <flamesrock> guys, how do I find out what program is using /dev/dsp so that I can kill it?
[10:04] <luisvillegas> hi
[10:04] <whyami> Ven] n^: have you used make on other apps? If not, have you done sudo apt-get build-essential?
[10:04] <georgy> flamesrock : ps aux
[10:04] <Ven] n^> nope, didnt know i needed to
[10:04] <flamesrock> ah tx georgy !
[10:04] <Karmander> hello
[10:04] <Ven] n^> doing apt-get install make gcc g++ now
[10:04] <Unity> gnomefreak: don't bother actually
[10:05] <Karmander> i need some help to use my winxp hd from ubuntu
[10:05] <whyami> Ven] n^: if you apt-get install build-essential, you get everything you need.
[10:05] <NewbRyan> can anyone help me get my fat32 file system to show up, i saw it yesterday but i cant see it today
[10:05] <Unity> gnomefreak: i think i can install debian faster than i can fix this
[10:05] <ic56> glitch: ok. The port forwarding isn't relevant at this point since your test connection isn't going through the router.  Login on your server box, get a shell prompt and type: ps -ef |grep ftp
[10:05] <Ven] n^> ok, thanks
[10:05] <Unity> gnomefreak: thx for trying to help. i really appreciate
[10:05] <Ven] n^> how do i get out of x?
[10:05] <Karmander> can you help me to see my ntfs hd please
[10:05] <MrKeuner> anybody using breezy having strange behaviours since last glibc update?
[10:05] <ic56> glitch: do you get any output, besides the grep process?
[10:06] <NewbRyan> Karmander: have you tried this http://ubuntuguide.org/#automountntf   ?
[10:06] <fromvega> where is the default ubuntu web root folder? htdocs?
[10:06] <whyami> Ven] n^: just choose applications --> accesories --> terminal if you want a terminal window.
[10:06] <chuckyp> *yawn* morning *yawn*
[10:06] <Karmander> NewbRyan not yet thank you
[10:06] <sethrd> Does Dapper requite a certian kernel version?
[10:06] <Ven] n^> i need to be out of x to use 915resolution
[10:07] <NewbRyan> karmander np, it worked for me yesterday, but i cant get it to work again
[10:07] <Ven] n^> kinda hoped i didnt have to reboot
[10:07] <chuckyp> sethrd, it installs 2.6.15 dapper talk is at #ubuntu+1
[10:07] <sethrd> chuckyp: I know, I was just curious. I'm on Breezy right now.
[10:07] <SForan> How would one go about setting up an IRC channel?
[10:07] <glitch> ic56, they're invalid commands?
[10:08] <chuckyp> SForan, join #help and find out the requirements of freenode
[10:08] <NewbRyan> can anyone help me set my fat32 to mount at boot, for some reason it keeps failing at boot
[10:08] <gnomefreak> SForan: /join #name of channel you want
[10:08] <chuckyp> SForan, or you could just temporarily join a channel of your name.
[10:08] <SForan> thank you
[10:08] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, did you add it to the fstab?
[10:08] <glitch> ic56, I logged in through ftp
[10:08] <ic56> glitch: `ps -ef' and `grep ftp' are valid commands.  Why? did you get an error message?
[10:08] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: yes
[10:09] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, can you paste your fstab to pastebin
[10:09] <ic56> glitch: oh, so the message you mentioned originally is now gone?
[10:09] <chuckyp> !tell NewbRyan about paste
[10:10] <twopeak> !hfs
[10:10] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, twopeak
[10:10] <ubuntu> hi
[10:10] <themachine> sorry ic56, I thought you meant log in to the actual ftp, ok for the output I get nobody    9372     1  0 15:47 ?        00:00:00 proftpd: (accepting connections)
[10:10] <jb0nd38372> I have a secondary drive that was used when I used windows to store downloads, I have it mounted under ubuntu as read only, is there a way I can fix it so that when I pull it up I don't have to use root privs every time?
[10:10] <twopeak> Does anyone know if i can write to my HFS+ formated external hard disk? (writing is no problem)
[10:11] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: ok, i think i did it right
[10:11] <themachine> .localdomain: IDLE
[10:11] <themachine> 1000     13244 13233  0 16:09 pts/2    00:00:00 grep ftp
[10:11] <Joetheodd> <-- ubuntu has quit (Client Quit) -- That mesage made me cry.
[10:11] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, can you give hte link to your paste bin?
[10:12] <glitch> ic56, themachine is synonymous with me
[10:12] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10778
[10:12] <ic56> glitch: again: so, if you're able to login via FTP, then the error does *not* occur when your client PC ftp's to the server PC.  Correct?
[10:12] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: you can see the last 2 lines are both the drives i want to mount
[10:12] <str8edge> jb0nd38372: you need to specify which user or group you want to give access to in /etc/fstab
[10:13] <glitch> ic56: my client pc cannot connect to the server
[10:14] <sfar-ubu> "apt-get upgrade" returns: "The following packages have been kept back: hplip-data libtagc0 rfb".. What to do?
[10:14] <jb0nd38372> thanks Str8edge... ithe drive is ntfs partitioned, is there a way to convert ntfs to something more linux friendly without having to wipe the drive?
[10:15] <Xenguy> sfar-ubu: wait, or try different mirrors  ?
[10:15] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, afirm let me take a look at them.
[10:15] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: thanks
[10:15] <ic56> glitch: ok, what program do you use as the ftp client?
[10:15] <str8edge> jbond38372: not that I know of.. I backup and reformat..
[10:15] <twopeak> even in root I can only read my HFS+ disk, is it even possible to write to this kind of disk?
[10:15] <glitch> ic56, proftpd
[10:15] <Paradoxx> does any1 know how to transfer pictures to an ipod nano?
[10:15] <Xenguy> jb0nd38372: no...
[10:15] <jb0nd38372> ok, well that answered that...  :)
[10:15] <possie> crimsun, i found another old ISA soundcard, which does output information when i use 'pnpdump'
[10:15] <Ven] n^> how to boot ubuntu so it doesnt go into x?
[10:15] <sfar-ubu> Xenguy: exactly what does "has been kept back" mean?
[10:16] <ic56> glitch: No. what program do you use as the ftp *client*?
[10:16] <Xenguy> jb0nd38372: commercial software like Partition Magic will convert from NTFS to VFAT
[10:16] <twopeak> Paradoxx: there was someone else on here earlyer who got directed to some site, i think it was on wiki.ubuntu.com (not sure though)
[10:16] <Xenguy> jb0nd38372: non-destructively
[10:16] <glitch> ic56, ftp
[10:16] <ic56> glitch: from the command line?
[10:16] <glitch> yes
[10:16] <jb0nd38372> guess I'd need a windows install to run it though?  I decided to quit windows cold turkey
[10:16] <sfar-ubu> ubotu, tell Paradoxx about ipod
[10:16] <marlun> Whats the easiest way to add a new resolution to the possible choices? The highest I can choose right now is 1024x768 and I would like to test 1280x1024.
[10:17] <whyami> Ven] n^: my guess is you change the run level, but how you do that I dunno...
[10:17] <str8edge> jb0nd38372: If you use partition magic, backup first!
[10:17] <glitch> on a web browser, I can see the main directory, but it will not download
[10:17] <Xenguy> sfar-ubu: dunno exactly.  Usually there is a conflict or mistiming of some kind. I find it usually resolves itself by trying again tomorrow
[10:17] <ic56> glitch: tell me *exactly* the last command you issue and the error message you see.
[10:17] <sfar-ubu> Xenguy: okay, ill just wait then.. thanks
[10:17] <georgy> marlun : dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:17] <Ven] n^> whyami, in fedora it was just to add "3" to the kernel line
[10:17] <Xenguy> !tell marlun about resolution
[10:17] <Xenguy> sfar-ubu: welcome
[10:17] <str8edge> anyone running dapper in here?
[10:17] <marlun> georgy: thanks!
[10:17] <marlun> Xenguy: thanks
[10:17] <bobthedope> I installed 5.04 yesterday and I mistakingly interrupted it on first boot, as it was installing the packages. While trying to fix it, I messed up the install and just decided to reinstall it so it will be clean.
[10:17] <glitch> ic56: ftp 192.168.1.100
[10:17] <glitch> Connected to 192.168.1.100.
[10:17] <glitch> 500 Sorry, no server available to handle request on 192.168.1.100
[10:18] <Xenguy> marlun: yw
[10:18] <TheJiveTurkey> does anyone use Fluxbox
[10:18] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, You are also missing the partition numbers
[10:18] <bobthedope> Since then I tried to install 5.04, 5.10 and dapper and they have all failed
[10:18] <MrKeuner> !help
[10:18] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, do sudo fdisk -l
[10:18] <Karmander> do you know how to mount a windows ntfs secondary partition
[10:18] <bobthedope> !help
[10:18] <j072pe>  somebody knows where is the script who appears in the instalation... "Find your layout by pressing some keys".... becouse i want to change my keyboard layout.... (i'm not using X, gnome neither kde)
[10:18] <dabaR> !slap
[10:18] <ubotu> dabaR: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:18] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, will show you a print out of the partitions and which numbers they are.
[10:18] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: ok
[10:18] <str8edge> Karmander: mount -t ntfs /device /mountpoint
[10:19] <Xenguy> dabaR: #debian ;-)
[10:19] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, so it would be something like /dev/hda1  or what ever number in place of the 1 is your partition.
[10:19] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: i see it
[10:19] <jb0nd38372> Is ntfs support still a little shaky as far as write access to the partition?
[10:19] <gnomefreak> jb0nd38372: yes for breezy it always will be
[10:20] <str8edge> jb0nd38372: its still "dangerous"
[10:20] <jb0nd38372> ok... guess I best leave it read only until I can get it converted
[10:20] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, when you say /dev/hda  you are just defining the first drive on the primary ide "hda" then the first partition would be 1 second would be 2 etc... on up.
[10:20] <Xenguy> jb0nd38372: AFAIK, yes
[10:20] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: so what would the line for /dev/hda1   *           1        9732    78172258+   7  HPFS/NTFS
[10:20] <NewbRyan>    look like?
[10:20] <Paradoxx> sfar-ubu: that dosen't tell you about pictures
[10:20] <jb0nd38372> too much data to risk loosing and almost too much to try and back up... roughly 350 gigs worth
[10:21] <str8edge> Xenguy: are you using dapper?
[10:21] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, okay it would look something like this "dev/hda1       /media/windows  ntfs    ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0       0"
[10:21] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, no quotes ofcourse
[10:21] <Xenguy> str8edge: no, this channel is for breezy
[10:21] <ic56> glitch: hmmm, get a shell prompt on the server and type this: grep ftp /etc/inetd.conf  Do you get any output?  Are there any uncommented lines?
[10:21] <Xenguy> str8edge: #ubuntu+1
[10:21] <str8edge> awesome
[10:21] <NewbRyan> so ill load that into the fstab and see what happends?
[10:21] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, and sda1 would look like "/dev/sda1       /media/storage  vfat    user,auto,fmask=0111,dmask=0000   0       0"
[10:22] <marky> _jason  you here?
[10:22] <Karmander> NewbRyan i can mount the windows partition typing /dev/hda1       /media/windows  ntfs    nls=utf8,umask=0222 0       0 how can i mount the secondary partition in the same disk?
[10:22] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, yeah if you load that into fstab then just do a sudo mount -a it wil load everything in the fstab.
[10:22] <Ven] n^> difference between startx and init 5?
[10:22] <themachine> ic56, I get #<off># ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/proftpd
[10:22] <chuckyp> Karmander, you just use /dev/hda2
[10:23] <Karmander> chuckyp you are a genius
[10:23] <Karmander> chuckyp thank you :)
[10:23] <themachine> ic56, the proftpd.conf is set to standalone rather than inetd.
[10:24] <chuckyp> Ven] n^, startx won't switch runlevels it just start's x server.  init 5 changes your box to runlevel 5 which by default has x loading.
[10:24] <graveson> is any one aware of this error " ieee1394: unsolicited response packet received "
[10:25] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: the fat32 mounted, the ntfs shows up in media, but i cant access it
[10:26] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, here I changed your fstab assuming you are using sda1 and hda1 I don't know why you used the utf8 stuff I changed that also http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10780
[10:26] <ic56> glitch: since the line begins with a sharp symbol, it means that ftp is *not* being started by inetd.  Since the ftp client reported `connected' a TCP connection was established, which means someone was listening at the server end.  Since inetd isn't configured to listen, it must have been proftpd.  Thus, the error message (number 500) was sent by ftpd.  So ftpd is lying -- it actually is up and running
[10:26] <ic56> -).
[10:27] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, did you change the utf8 etc...?  it should be something allong the lines of ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000  THis would make it read only since we can't write to ntfs.  And would allow any user to read it.
[10:27] <Xenguy> ic56: that was great - you need one of those Sherlock Holmes hats :-)
[10:27] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, thats for the ntfs partition only.
[10:27] <f8> where is the control center
[10:27] <f8> ?
[10:27] <themachine> ic56, how can I stop the conflict?
[10:27] <ic56> glitch: I think there's something in the config files of proftpd that is telling it to *not* serve clients.  Perhaps...
[10:27] <Karmander> chuckyp if it is a logical partition of hda1 what should i do?
[10:27] <Xenguy> f8: gnome-control-center   ?
[10:28] <Karmander> chuckyp if it is a logical partition of hda1 what should i do?
[10:28] <Karmander> sorry for repeat
[10:28] <chuckyp> Karmander, to list the partitions try sudo fdisk -l  will show you which hda# you should be using.
[10:28] <Karmander> chuckyp thank you
[10:28] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: i have exactly what you put in the pase box, but i cant access the ntfs drive
[10:29] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: all i want to do is read it
[10:29] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: the icon in "Computer" is that of a floppy disk too, if that is of any help
[10:29] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, hmmm.... well after changing it sudo umount /dev/hda1 now sudo mount -a let it remount it.
[10:30] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, after changing your fstab like we did.
[10:30] <ic56> glitch: I am not familiar with proftpd but, given the way the error message is worded, perhaps multiple instances of the server are supposed to be running and you only have one -- the master whose only purpose is to start slaves to serve connections.  Look for something like `number of servers' in the proftpd config file.  Another possibility is that the config file tells it that maximum number of simultaneous user connect

[10:37] <Xenguy> pchapman: yw
[10:37] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, okay yeah you still need to change /dev/hda to /dev/hda1 or whatever partition number you are using on that drive.  You also need to change /dev/sda to /dev/sda1 or whatever partition number on that drive as well.
[10:37] <Xenguy> !find /usr/bin/vim

[10:39] <Jowi> nick|here: You can try to make a new profile with "firefox -ProfileManager" or if that fails, you can try to rename the /home/user/.mozilla/firefox/ directory to force firefox to build a new profile.

[10:39] <f8> what do i do after i install kde-core?
[10:39] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: that number has to do with the partition, or is it just a device label

[10:39] <pchapman> the gam_server appears to be using a large amount of memory
[10:39] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, hda is just hte device hda=primary master hard drive the number tells it what partition like 1=the first partiton 2= the second.
[10:39] <pchapman> 1.0GiB.
[10:39] <Ven] n^> it wont go past 1280x1024

[10:40] <Xenguy> gah, sorry
[10:40] <curz0r> syntax error in the config script of a dapper package
[10:40] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, so if you had the primary master hda with five partions, when you did an fdisk -l you would see /dev/hda1 /dev/hda2 /dev/hda3 /dev/hda4 /dev/hda5

[10:43] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: two ati cards
[10:44] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, ahhh let me see if I can find a good tutorial.  But basically you just edit xorg.conf and add another screen section if both cards are being detected.
[10:44] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: i have tried to edit the xorg file before with no success
[10:44] <Jowi> nick|here: that doesn't tell me anything. :-/ maybe someone else's got an idea

[10:45] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, can you paste your xorg.conf I'll take a look real quick
[10:45] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: but when i tried to edit the xorg file i messed it up
[10:45] <chuckyp> leif_, you can get that fromt he wine site
[10:46] <chuckyp> leif_, I believe they even have a repo you could add to sources.list to install it.
[10:46] <NewbRyan> ill have to go through the tutorial again, it was a while ago, i have been giving up and coming back to linux for a while
[10:46] <leif_> chuckyp, the compiled wine deb package does not have the wow patch :(
[10:46] <ron_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10783 ||| Could someone tell me what i did wrong
[10:47] <ron_> plz
[10:47] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, yeah shouldn't be a problem to get it up and going.  Like I say if you have both cards int ehmachine now just paste your xorg.conf I'll take a look at it.
[10:47] <ic56> nick|here: I missed the beginning of that question.  Who outputs error at line 370?
[10:47] <chuckyp> leif_, can you obtain the wow patch from somewhere?
[10:47] <themachine> alright ic56, I have it working with client/server. I must have been only having problems setting up annonymous login
[10:47] <nick|here> ic56: firefox
[10:47] <leif_> chuckyp, i can, and i can compile and install it but it work like shit
[10:47] <NewbRyan> chuckyp, ok, ill paste it for you in a couple minutes, just let me figure out how to get the xorg back up
[10:48] <leif_> chuckyp, most likely cus im running dapper, well i hope
[10:48] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:48] <BigNewbie> does anybody know about clustering with ubuntu?
[10:49] <chuckyp> leif_, well if youa re installing the latest wine with the latest patch how is that different than if someone else has already done it for you?
[10:50] <leif_> chuckyp, well most likely it would be compiled on a system thats stable and have all the "required" stuff installed
[10:50] <ic56> : sounds like  didn't get defined.  If you intend to debug it yourself, ah... never mind, this gets too complicated.  There should be a simple solution but I've never seen this before so I don't know it.

[10:53] <leif_> chuckyp, I would gues its simply cus dapper dont include some libs/includes thats needed or have buggy stuff that hgets included
[10:53] <chuckyp> patrick52222, its part of xorg but dapper talk should be in #ubuntu+1

[10:55] <gfunk> Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem I'm encountering with my new installation of Ubuntu 5.10 64-bit
[10:55] <ic56> How does it work with multiple graphics cards in a box?  Do you just plug them in and they're recognized?  Does that work with ISA cards or only PCI?
[10:55] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, well problem one is you would need another device section for the second video card.  I don't know why it iddn't see it.  THen you just need a second screen section for that card.
[10:55] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: only one card and only one monitor show up in the defualt xorg
[10:55] <gfunk> I am pretty sure it's video related, but I installed the latest Nvidia drivers and am still getting the same problem
[10:56] <ron_> help plz http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10783 :/
[10:56] <jmoschetti45> is there a way to temporarily force ubuntu to run my intel 86865g graphics card in something better than 648x480? i cant find the drivers

What utilities can I use to tinker/diagnose?  The usual CUPS web page at http://localhost:631 has been disabled, and the KDE ctrl centre just plain doesn't detect my printer.
[10:56] <joshafina> hey is this a channel for people who need help with Ubuntu?
[10:56] <graveson> there are new features/fixes with the 2.16.14 kernel with regards to ieee1394 . where and how do i upgrade to this kenel
[10:56] <gfunk> The problem is, after the splash comes up and it goes through those list of items that are followed by "OK", I get left with a screen that just has a solid dash in the upper left hand corner of the screen
[10:56] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: when it boots up it boots from the other monitor, then when the OS is actualy loaded its jumps back to the ati pro, windows does the same thing
[10:56] <Unity> after i install xfce, will it be my primary login thing or do i have to something after it finishes install?
[10:57] <meowmeow> hi, i have w32codecs installed, but i cannot view avi or listen to mp3s yet
[10:57] <NewbRyan> chuckyp, boots from the pci, then jumps the agp
[10:57] <NickGarvey> Unity: xfce doesn't have a display manager
[10:57] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, well you could reconfigure it i.e. dpkg-configure xorg I think it is.
[10:57] <gfunk> now, I know that whatever is supposed to be working is working properly
[10:57] <NickGarvey> Unity: if you want to log into xfce go to sessions and pick xfce, when you hit logon it will ask if you want it as your default
[10:57] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: what will that do?
[10:57] <gfunk> because when I blindly type in my username and passward then hit enter, I can hear the sound of it logging in
[10:57] <NickGarvey> !karma gfunk
[10:57] <ubotu> gfunk has neutral karma
[10:57] <gfunk> but it still just shows the dash
[10:58] <BlueOrange> Hi folks. I need some assistance with enabling svideo ouput on my thinkpad t21. I have found a tool that is for that perpose, but i need assistance getting it installed. somone was trying to help me with it ealier, but i had to leave. Here is a paste bin showing where in the process I am. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10765    anyone assist ?
[10:58] <nick|here> ic56, just rebooted the machine and everything works fine :)
[10:58] <Unity> NickGarvey: then how do i set gdm to be the default?
[10:58] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, err. dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  hmm.. can't remember the package name you want now.
[10:58] <Unity> NickGarvey: right now i have kdm as default, but kdm is not working
[10:58] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: is the secondary video card supposed to show up in the xorg if its not used
[10:58] <NickGarvey> let me find the file
[10:58] <gfunk> I can get into the ctrl-alt-f1 virtual terminal to work with things fine
[10:58] <NickGarvey> its like default-display-manager or something
[10:58] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, that will reconfigure xserver and should output a new xorg.conf at the end.  It should be able to see both cards let me get the exact package name.
[10:58] <gfunk> but if I go to terminal 7, the screen just stays with whatever it shows last
[10:59] <NickGarvey> /etc/X11/default-display-manager
[10:59] <gfunk> so whatever is running by default appears to be running properly, it's just that I don't see any of it
[10:59] <kwtm1> Question: (k)Ubuntu Badger is now failing to detect my USB printer (HPpsc1210), where it had worked fine under Badger before.  Not sure what changed.  What utilities can I use to tinker/diagnose?  The usual CUPS web page at http://localhost:631 has been disabled, and the KDE ctrl centre just plain doesn't detect my printer.
[10:59] <NickGarvey> Unity: change from kdm to gdm, simple enough
[10:59] <chuckyp> Anyone know the line to reconfigure xorg?  The correct package name?
[10:59] <Unity> NickGarvey: ok thanxs
[11:00] <gfunk> Has anyone heard of a problem like this before?
[11:00] <f8> is there a kubuntu channel?
[11:00] <LinuxJones> kwtm1: system >> asdmin >> printing
[11:00] <NickGarvey> f8: yup
[11:00] <LinuxJones> err admin
[11:00] <HOEHAVER> does anyone know of a program that can be used on ubuntu 5.10 for yahoo to send and recieve video
[11:00] <NickGarvey> !kubuntu
[11:00] <ubotu> kubuntu is probably 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/
[11:00] <f8> dig....
[11:01] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, yeah dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  will reconfig x windows.  After that is done take a look at your xorg.conf and see if it added a second device for the other video card.
[11:01] <ruzgar> how can i make a .deb package froma a .tar file
[11:01] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, you can always backup yoru current xorg.conf first
[11:01] <kingspawn> gfunk: tried booting the rescue-kernel in grub?
[11:01] <gfunk> rescue-kernel?
[11:01] <gfunk> Please explain.
[11:01] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, just do like sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup or something.
[11:01] <NewbRyan> and how would i restore it if this took a turn for the worst?
[11:01] <kwtm1> LinuxJones: I think you're referring to System Settings, but it doesn't seem to work, and it seems very "dumbed down".
[11:01] <kwtm1> I'll see if a kubuntu channel might help more.
[11:02] <ron_> help plz http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10783
[11:02] <LinuxJones> kwtm1: sorry I missed the part about you using kde
[11:02] <kingspawn> gfunk: well, i think there should be an entry there that says "rescue mode" at the end. or you could atleast remove the "splash" line from your menu.lst to take away the graphical boot, and maybe thereby get a better idea of what is failing
[11:02] <ic56> gfunk: what's happened there is that X has not started at all.  tty 7 has no process running on it -- that's why when you press alt-f7 your keystroke is ignored and you stay in your current terminal.
[11:02] <gfunk> I'm fairly new to Linux.  I used it for a short time on my previous computer, but that one worked flawlessly
[11:02] <gfunk> allright
[11:02] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, Thats why I would back it up.  If you don't like what it did you could then just sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf  would replace the one it created.
[11:02] <Ven] n^> should apt-get install libpcap find libpcap and install?
[11:02] <ruzgar> how can i make a .deb package froma a .tar file
[11:02] <Ven] n^> cause i get E: couldnt find package libpcap
[11:03] <NickGarvey> Ven] n^: do apt-cache search libpcap
[11:03] <gfunk> ic56: What about me being able to type in my username and password blindly and when I hit enter, I hear the entrance sound effect?
[11:03] <gfunk> it's as if it's running, I just can't see it run
[11:03] <chuckyp> ruzgar, you can'te
[11:03] <Ven] n^> ah
[11:03] <Ven] n^> thanks
[11:03] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: so if i do the dpkg thing and the gui dies, i can type that in and it should revert to the old xorg?
[11:03] <BlueOrange> is anyone available to assist with program instal issue ?
[11:03] <ic56> gfunk: from the text only screen, try typing `startx'.  This is what is used to start X.  Watch the messages that will get displayed (on the tty where you type startx)
[11:04] <gfunk> allright
[11:04] <ic56> gfunk: you have a point.
[11:04] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, like I say what you need to do is save a copy of your xorg.conf you are using now.  Save it somewhere.  THen if you want to revert back you just overwrite the xorg.conf that the reconfigure creates.
[11:04] <gfunk> yeah
[11:05] <ic56> gfunk: but I thought you said that when you tried changing to the X tty with alt-F7, you stayed in your current tty?
[11:05] <gfunk> it's not tat I realy "stay" in my current tty
[11:05] <gfunk> it's that my screen is just showing the last thing that it showed
[11:05] <NewbRyan> ok, here i go, ill try  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:05] <NickGarvey> where is stderr found?
[11:06] <ic56> gfunk: so, it switches ttys but you end up in what appears to be an empty tty?
[11:06] <gfunk> I believe so
[11:06] <leif_> anyone here compiled new wine ?
[11:06] <ic56> twn NickGarvey
[11:07] <gfunk> because when I go to the f7 one, I can type ctrl-alt-backspace to restart it
[11:07] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: it brought up a wizard or something, i will hit enter to "attempt to autodetect video hardware" now
[11:07] <gfunk> and then it just goes back to the dash thing
[11:07] <ic56> NickGarvey: what do you mean, about stderr?
[11:07] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, yes auto detect should work fine for you.
[11:07] <BlueOrange> Is anyone available to assist me with installing atitvout 0.4 for enabling svideo out on my thinkpad t21? please see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10765
[11:08] <NickGarvey> ./dev/stderr
[11:08] <NickGarvey> thats what I was looking for
[11:08] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: now i need to enter the "cards bus identifier", would you happen to know how to find that?
[11:08] <kwtm1> I think I'm getting an error with updates: every time I try to "Fetch updates", Adept reports an error with the multiverse repositories.  Is this the correct line in the repositories file (I think it's /etc/apt/sources.list)?
[11:08] <kwtm1> deb  http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu  breezy  multiverse

[11:08] <gfunk> ic56: do you have any idea what might be causing this?
[11:09] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, well if you actually need it you can do lspci to find out.  But you should be okay hitting enter.  and using auto detect.
[11:09] <kwtm1> NickGarvey: Thanks for the info, but I've already read it, and that is how I set up my repositories in the first place.  Can someone confirm that there is no problem with the multiverse repository?
[11:10] <NickGarvey> kwtm1: try putting a ./ on the ned
[11:10] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: i clicked auto detect, i think this is part of it
[11:10] <NickGarvey> end*
[11:10] <ic56> gfunk: The error logs should be in /var/log/X??   You could also try startx, after you've kill it with ctl-alt-backspace to see the error messages live on your screen.  As to the cause, I suspect a GNOME config problem -- it's displaying black on black.  I don't know how to fix that thought.
[11:10] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, let me run it so I can see what you are seeing hold up
[11:10] <gfunk> allright
[11:10] <BlueOrange> HOEHAVER: you should try to be more specific.
[11:10] <gfunk> well, I thank you very much for your help
[11:10] <NewbRyan> chuckyp: thanks

[11:11] <BlueOrange> duelboot: i;m new here too, but my understanding is that u are better off installing the new version rather trying to upgrade.
[11:11] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, didn't it come up with a bus identifier already there?
[11:12] <HOEHAVER> yeah it will break if you upgrade.... mine did
[11:12] <gnomefreak> BlueOrange: to dapper yes to breezy its all good
[11:12] <NewbRyan> yeah
[11:12] <NickGarvey> oo I like sed

[11:12] <BlueOrange> gnomefreak: its not safer to do a clean install? i thought i read something about the upgrade option being beta ?
[11:13] <gnomefreak> BlueOrange: breezy upgrade is seamless for most part
[11:13] <chuckyp> NewbRyan, what do you mena the next one ?

[11:14] <__mikem> hey, does anyone know how to disable all power management on my laptop
[11:14] <gnomefreak> duelboot: if you are using gnome please just type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

[11:17] <linlov> Ubuntu is debian based is debian based is it not? APT tools are for debian.
[11:17] <gnomefreak> duelboot: can you paste your /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin

[11:17] <duelboot> sure..where is the pastebin...
[11:17] <pppoe_dude> dabaR, well, dhcpd asks me to setup a subnet for my external interface, so i setup one like:  subnet <internet IP> netmask 255.255.255.255 {}

[11:32] <NickGarvey> !tell gymsmoke about pastebin
[11:32] <linlov> I like that you can use ext3,XFS,reiserfs,JFS with Ubuntu looks like both JFS and XFS are out of the SUSE installer next release. I like more to choose from FS wise.
[11:32] <duelboot> gnomefreak:  thx much...truly appreciate it...love Ubuntu community already
[11:33] <svenne> how to install xmms ?
[11:33] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: thanks...
[11:33] <nalioth> gymsmoke: please don't paste in here, use a pastebin instead
[11:33] <gnomefreak> duelboot: now go into your /etc/apt/sources.list change hoary to breezy and run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:33] <Blissex> mi6:  and the last bit in your page suggests you have some serious hardware problem.
[11:33] <redguy> mi6: seems like you might have your root fileststem hosed
[11:33] <Jowi> !no
[11:33] <ubotu> Ahh, too bad, I really thought so...
[11:33] <_jason> svenne: install the xmms package in synaptic
[11:33] <phrowzen> svenne, sudo apt-get install xmms
[11:33] <svenne> thx
[11:33] <Blissex> mi6: the serious hardware problem is probably that your CPU or your RAM are broken.
[11:33] <svenne> after that?
[11:33] <georgy> svenne : enjoy
[11:34] <ron_> So i have searched the forum, other forums, and google. no answer :/ Should i just through the puter out the window? :p http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10783
[11:34] <phrowzen> svenne, just run it.. from the applications-> sound menu, or xmms from command prompt
[11:34] <svenne> thx
[11:34] <svenne> :D
[11:34] <duelboot> gnomefreak:  will do it now...and let you know
[11:34] <redguy> Blissex: that would rather result in random crashes, while mi6 is experiencing crashes in certain circumstances
[11:34] <NickGarvey> you can do a mem check
[11:34] <mi6> Blissex: I am typing this on the same machine, so no problem with my H/W
[11:34] <nick|here> i have found phpmaydmin package at packages.ubuntu.com but when i try apt-get install phpmyadmin gives me error could not find package...
[11:34] <_jason> !info phpmyadmin
[11:34] <gnomefreak> duelboot: ty i might not answer right away but i should be here
[11:35] <ubotu> phpmyadmin: (set of PHP-scripts to administrate MySQL over the WWW), section universe/web, is extra. Version: 4:2.6.4-pl1-1ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 2834 kB, Installed size: 10856 kB
[11:35] <svenne> ;)
[11:35] <svenne> i got another hd
[11:35] <_jason> nick|here: enable universe
[11:35] <Blissex> redguy: no, he is experiencing random crashes.
[11:35] <svenne> how to save files into that?
[11:35] <NewbRyan> where would i go to figure out how to get sound to work on a new install?
[11:35] <laffer> what do I have to do to use virtual\vanaty hosts in irc?
[11:35] <mi6> Blissex: I am typing this on the same machine, so no problem with my H/W
[11:35] <Blissex> redguy: the random crashes caused by hw problems have fucked his filesystem too.
[11:35] <nick|here> _jason: comment it out
[11:35] <ic56> laffer: you mean, on the client?  or on the server's side?
[11:35] <_jason> nick|here: huh?
[11:35] <Blissex> mi6: if you want to believe that, I have no more to say. However try to figure out why you get "[4294730:255000]  double fault, tss at c0347080" then.
[11:36] <mi6> I may not be a linus expert, but i know my H/W is OK
[11:36] <_jason> ubotu: tell nick|here about universe
[11:36] <nick|here> _jason: i am a newbie, could you explain me more?
[11:36] <vbgunz> what is a real simple color picker app for Linux?
[11:36] <redguy> Blissex: well, we might make him run memtest then, but I think hw is not the issue here
[11:36] <mi6> Blissex: Tell me why did i get that
[11:36] <gnomefreak> Blissex: language please
[11:36] <_jason> nick|here: check out your private messages from ubotu
[11:36] <Blissex> vbgunz: 'xcolorsel'

[11:36] <svenne> :o
[11:36] <laffer> ic56 on the client. but can I create on ubuntu vhosts and use them?
[11:37] <vbgunz> Blissex: thank you
[11:37] <_jason> ubotu: tell svenne about register
[11:37] <redguy> mi6: If I were you I would try booting from knoppix or ubuntu live and then fsck the root filesystem
[11:38] <svenne> :)
[11:38] <duelboot> gnomefreak:  holy cow, about 2 hours to go!!!
[11:38] <mi6> redguy: I can boot again from Knoppix , how do i fsck the guest file system?
[11:39] <duelboot> and I wanted to play halo, so much for that :)
[11:39] <ic56> laffer: irc -h <hostname or IP number>  .  I've never done it but I see no reason why the networking parts of the kernel would be different on ubuntu from all the other linux distros.
[11:39] <gnomefreak> duelboot: thats not bad took me 7
[11:39] <NickGarvey> duelboot: try wine?
[11:39] <svenne> can someone help me?i got 2 hds.. and i can only read from the one with linux installed?
[11:39] <gymsmoke> http://pastebin.com/622376
[11:39] <_jason> svenne: what filesystem is the other one?
[11:39] <gnomefreak> svenne: whats ont he other hd?
[11:40] <bs101> HELP:  how do i start a vpn client?
[11:40] <duelboot> Nick:  love red wine...hehe
[11:40] <NewbRyan> new install, No sound, can someone help?
[11:40] <NickGarvey> :) wouldn't know I'm 1 heh
[11:40] <svenne> _jason: nothing
[11:40] <redguy> mi6: do you know where is your root filesystem? /dev/hda1 perhaps? if you dont run mount | grep " / " from the rescue mode
[11:40] <_jason> svenne: it's not formatted as anything?
[11:41] <meowmeow> !hangman
[11:41] <ubotu> meowmeow: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:41] <svenne> can i pm you _jason?
[11:41] <mi6> mount /dev/hdc2 /mnt/<newfolder>
[11:41] <mi6> redguy: mount /dev/hdc2 /mnt/<newfolder>
[11:41] <_jason> svenne: better if we do it here, that way more people can help
[11:41] <svenne> okay
[11:41] <gnomefreak> meowmeow: no games in any of the #ubuntu channels
[11:41] <redguy> mi6: no, you don't have to mount it
[11:41] <svenne> i got 1 hd.. i installed linux on a partion with 10gb
[11:41] <georgy> ron: do you have all requirements installed
[11:42] <redguy> mi6: just fsck -vnf /dev/hda2
[11:42] <NickGarvey> svenne: (17:39:32) svenne: can someone help me?i got 2 hds.. and i can only read from the one with linux installed?
[11:42] <NickGarvey> svenne: lost a HD pretty fast it seems..
[11:42] <pulver> hello everybody, what do you have to install to view divx5 movies?
[11:42] <mi6> redguy: well i boot from Knoppix CD then i mount the hosed root filesystem at /dev/hdc2 right
[11:42] <gnomefreak> !divx
[11:42] <ubotu> it has been said that restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[11:42] <gnomefreak> pulver: ^^^
[11:42] <mi6> redguy: ok i'will try it w/o mounting
[11:43] <redguy> mi6: note that -n sigifies that it won't make any changes to the filesystem. this is in case that you really have a hardware problem and you might break even more when trying to fix stuff with fsck
[11:43] <_jason> svenne: format the other one using gparted, then come back here and ask how to mount it.  ext3 is probably the best filesystem to format it as for use with linux
[11:43] <redguy> mi6: well, fsck will issue a warning message when you try to fsck a mounted filesystem
[11:43] <NewbRyan> New install, no sound can someone help?
[11:43] <thugren> Hey so how is everyone doing?
[11:44] <NickGarvey> !alsa
[11:44] <ubotu> well, alsa is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=32063, see also !dmix
[11:44] <pulver> gnomefreak: gives me this dejavu feeling for being there and done that.. maybe missed something though
[11:44] <NickGarvey> !tell NewbRyan about alsa
[11:44] <thugren> newbryan. What type of sound card?
[11:44] <tux> hello
[11:44] <BlueOrange> Is anyone available to assist me with installing atitvout 0.4 for enabling svideo out on my thinkpad t21? please see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10765
[11:44] <NickGarvey> I want a doll of you tux
[11:44] <mi6> redguy: actually i remember now, it booted fine, said filesystem mounted read only, skipping journal replay
[11:45] <svenne> _Jason: i find it in disk
[11:45] <svenne> system ->  disks
[11:45] <NewbRyan> thugren onboard realtek
[11:45] <_jason> svenne: what filesystem does it say it has?
[11:45] <svenne> extended 3
[11:46] <duelboot> NewbRyan:  there's a great starter guide at http://ubuntuguide.org/  search for "sound" and give it a try...not trying to push you off, but I'm new and it has helped me
[11:46] <svenne> nope
[11:46] <mi6> redguy: should i still try to force a filesystem check
[11:46] <svenne> extended 2
[11:46] <NickGarvey> in general is it good to have swap space on the same HD or a different HD as the root partition
[11:46] <_jason> svenne: okay, is it just one large partition?  What does it say for ``Device:''?
[11:46] <NewbRyan> duelboot: thanks
[11:46] <thugren> newbryan, Hmmmmm, What mobo?
[11:46] <svenne> /dev/hda1
[11:46] <duelboot> NewbRyan:  yw
[11:46] <ic56> ron_: paste # 10783.  I'm pretty sure the error messages during the build are due to your lacking the internationalization tools.
[11:46] <redguy> mi6: as I said, running fsck with -n will not modify the filesystem. You will have a chance to see if something is wrong with it.
[11:47] <NewbRyan> thugren: its Realtek alc850
[11:47] <_jason> svenne: can you put the output of ``mount && sudo fdisk -l'' on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ ?
[11:47] <nalioth> ubotu: tell duelboot about ubuntuguide
[11:47] <nalioth> duelboot: that guide is so old, it is dangerous to use
[11:47] <mi6> redguy: OK, i am rebooting to do it, "I'll B Bak!"
[11:47] <duelboot> uh oh...
[11:47] <ompaul> !!
[11:47] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ompaul
[11:47] <BlueOrange> oh well, i guess ill try later.
[11:48] <thugren> newbryan. Do what duelboot is telling ya.. Head to the the ubuntuguide.org
[11:48] <whyami> anybody here gotten cinelerra to work? If so...was it worth it? :-) Also, how'd you do it?
[11:48] <nalioth> thugren: do not advise that, please
[11:48] <nalioth> !ubuntuguide
[11:48] <ubotu> ubuntuguide is, like, totally, out of date, reported to break a lot and generally a bad source for information. Use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead
[11:48] <NewbRyan> thugren: looking at it now, thanks, ill let you know if i have troube, is that ok?
[11:48] <nalioth> NewbRyan: you have seen the warnings .. ..
[11:49] <thugren> Is the Realtek inside the drive base for the ubuntu?
[11:49] <svenne> _Jason: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10788
[11:49] <NewbRyan> nalioth: what?
[11:49] <gymsmoke> I'm looking for an ftp client with ssl/tls support for 5.10 (Badger) on gnome
[11:49] <nalioth> ubotu: tell NewbRyan about ubuntuguide
[11:49] <nalioth> NewbRyan: ubuntuguide is so old, it is dangerous to use
[11:49] <redguy> thugren: which realtek?
[11:50] <NewbRyan> nalioth, oh ok, thanks

[11:50] <ubuntu> Hi to all!
[11:50] <svenne> _jason: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10788
[11:50] <georgy> gymsmoke : or kbear
[11:50] <gymsmoke> tritium_: installed through ubuntu - does not have ssl/tls support
[11:50] <julian2> alguien de Espaa?
[11:51] <_jason> svenne: ok I suppose you should just be able to press the ``enable'' button in the disks program and then browse the hard drive
[11:51] <gnomefreak> !es
[11:51] <nalioth> !es
[11:51] <laffer> I'm sorry but is it possible for me to create on my machine vhosts and use them to spoof my address on irc in ubuntu? What do I need to do to be able to do that?
[11:51] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[11:51] <_jason> !es
[11:51] <ubuntu> hola julian2
[11:51] <gymsmoke> georgy: will kbear run ok on gnome ?
[11:51] <ubuntu_> hi
[11:51] <nalioth> laffer: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks
[11:51] <julian2> hola
[11:51] <georgy> gymsmoke : why not ?
[11:51] <ubuntu> julian2 entra al canal #ubuntu-es
[11:51] <gnomefreak> gymsmoke: most kde apps run fine under gnome
[11:51] <_jason> does enabling a disk in the systems > administration > disks add it to fstab?
[11:52] <_jason> svenne: let me know if that works, then we will check something to make it mount everytime you boot
[11:52] <svenne> it dossent work..
[11:52] <gymsmoke> georgy: it seems to me that i read fairly extensively on a number of ftp packages, and, i did like kbear, but there was some reason why i didn't go with it...
[11:52] <_jason> svenne: hehe ok, what does it say?
[11:52] <thugren> Hey. newbryan. You might be able to use the nvidia media drivers for that.. I believe that is a common sound card drivers from nvidia
[11:52] <svenne> nothing
[11:52] <svenne> status: inaccesiable
[11:52] <svenne> _Jason
[11:53] <NewbRyan> thugren: i found in my device manager that my motherboard sound is alsa compatable
[11:53] <_jason> svenne: ok let's use the terminal, open one up.  Make a directory you want to mount to, for example ``sudo mkdir /media/harddrive2
[11:53] <gnomefreak> grrrrrrrrrr
[11:53] <_jason> svenne: ignore the ``
[11:53] <svenne> done
[11:54] <_jason> svenne: ok you know hda seems to have 4 partitions?
[11:54] <NewbRyan> thugren, i may have made a mistake, the decive manager lists my card as 82801eb/er (ICH5/ICH5r)
[11:54] <svenne> 3
[11:55] <svenne> _Jason : partion 2
[11:55] <svenne> _jason: partion 3  and swap  partion
[11:55] <NewbRyan> thugren and ac'97 audio controller
[11:55] <laffer> I see  http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks ... but can't I host them (vhosts) on the machine myself?
[11:56] <ruzgar_> i have a problem with cups
[11:56] <ruzgar_> i read all documents about it but i cant find a solution
[11:56] <ic56> laffer: has your ISP given you more than one IP number?  That usually costs $
[11:56] <ruzgar_> i have a hp printer
[11:57] <ruzgar_> i have installed hplip but that doesnt see my printer that says you must instal with cups
[11:57] <thugren> newbryan. Those are common for Nvidia Drivers as well.. Are you using a 64 bit version of ubuntu?
[11:57] <_jason> svenne: I think hda is the hard drive you are using now, does disks show you any other hard drives?
[11:57] <gymsmoke> georgy: kbear doesn't support ssl/tls according to its documentation
[11:57] <ic56> set input_aliases off
[11:57] <ruzgar_> but i cant make any changes in cups that ask me password but i have tried all the passwords but it doesnt work
[11:57] <svenne> i use the same hd yea..
[11:57] <svenne> i only got 1 hd
[11:57] <svenne> with 3 partions
[11:57] <georges_> hello. I have downloaded muse from the original http://muse.dyne.org/ site, and still there's no mp3 support. what's going on?
[11:57] <wd3> i have ubuntu xfce, how do i see if my cdrom and dvd r mounted because i put in mp3 in cdr and .mov in dvd and nothing is coming on.
[11:57] <georgy> gymsmoke  : ok , I think it does, hanx
[11:58] <laffer> ic56 no I haven't, does that mean that I have to use someone's vhosts?
[11:58] <_jason> svenne: erm, I thought you wanted to mount a second hard drive?  :)  Remind me what you want to do
[11:58] <gymsmoke> georgy: have you used it to connect to a site that required ssl/tls auth ?
[11:58] <ic56> laffer: it does.  Why do you want this, anyway?
[11:58] <NewbRyan> thugren: nope 32 bit
[11:58] <svenne> hmm.. i said i got 1 hd.. with 3 partion.. i got one partion i cant use..
[11:58] <svenne> the biggest one
[11:59] <svenne> one of them is swap
[11:59] <Cronck>  todos
[11:59] <laffer> ic56 just for curiosity
[11:59] <_jason> !enter
[11:59] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[11:59] <georgy> gymsmoke : no
[12:00] <_jason> svenne: ok, well let's try to mount hda1 I suppose.  Do this: 'sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /media/harddrive2'
