[12:00] <DBO> dekela, are you using ALSA or OSS
[12:00] <dekela> ALSA
[12:00] <dekela> DBO: Alsa
[12:00] <DBO> dekela, have you tried making this setting in gxine?
[12:00] <ole> bye
[12:00] <dekela> DBO: No lemme try
[12:00] <ole> quit
[12:01] <ic56> iceman: don't forget the trailing colon!
[12:01] <soundray> marcelo: it's hard to understand what you mean. Do you know that there is a #ubuntu-es channel?
[12:01] <iceman> ic56 2 drives listed IDE1 and IDE0 ... ide0 is the drive i want
[12:01] <DBO> !es
[12:01] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:01] <ompaul> herbchef, gnome is so embedded if you really want to use gnome 2.14 use the beta, dapper and that conversation takes place in the channel #ubuntu+1 gnome is your desktop but 2.12 is only 7 months old and dapper will not be stable for one month and about 1 day
[12:01] <ProN00b> i am using twinview and if i launch a fullscreen application (like a opengl game or something like that) it goes so the desktop resolution stays the same and the game goes in between the two screens and it has alot of black around it, how do i get it to display on one screen only ?
[12:02] <delta> bye
[12:02] <dekela> DBO: Audio device not available..
[12:02] <marcelo> thanks soundray, i going to ubuntu-es
[12:02] <soundray> ProN00b: turn off twinview, or set it to clone mode.
[12:02] <steffi> w8 soundray because I disconnected, and now I connect again and it doesnt even mount it
[12:02] <simonpca> plop
[12:02] <marcelo> and sorry , my english is very poor
[12:02] <herbchef> ompaul: k, thx. I'll try it. Just seems wierd that Totem would be crashing on an Ogg file. Bug buddy crashes too...
[12:02] <DBO> dekela, are you playing music or something to that effect?
[12:02] <belkin> hi all
[12:03] <ompaul> herbchef, that is not normal
[12:03] <belkin> need a bit help with samba
[12:03] <dekela> DBO: None.. Only chatting on Gnome Xchat
[12:03] <soundray> marcelo: not to worry, come back here if #ubuntu-es is not helpful.
[12:03] <dekela> DBO: I must say that system sound works
[12:03] <ProN00b> soundray, i could just turn off one monitor and reboot, but thats not the point, i want it to behave like it is now in desktop mode but fullscreen games should still be only one monitor
[12:03] <ic56> iceman: ide0 and ide1 are not drives but buses.  Each of these contains 2 drives, for a total of 4.  Look at the lines that begin with hda: or hdc: etc.  How many distinct hdX's are there?
[12:04] <belkin> i just share my music folder so i can access it from windows ... but it doesnt let me listen to all the music files , only some of them it says " write protected " or to check that the disk is not full
[12:04] <belkin> any ideea ? i did set writable = yes so what can be wrong ?
[12:04] <soundray> ProN00b: I take it you've looked at the Twinview doc in the readme in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx ?
[12:04] <belkin> change the permissions of the directory myself ... or will samba do it for me ?
[12:04] <DBO> dekela, hmmm, hold please
[12:04] <dekela> DBO: No Prob.. Thanks
[12:05] <maerk> i have a problem: I recently installed ubuntu (it took all day!) I'd like to upgrade KDE to 3.5.2, but I can't connect to the internet and the only method of getting data to ubuntu is to download it on a PC then copy it to CD. Is there any way I can upgrade KDE given these restrictions?
[12:05] <ompaul> herbchef, do file foo.ogg and check out what it thinks it is
[12:05] <iceman> ic56 3 drives listed ... hda0 hda1 and the cdrom ... exactly whats in the box ... I need hda0 ... hda1 is the fat32 drive ...
[12:06] <DBO> dekela, can you check and make sure (I know it does, but humor me) /dev/audio actually exists
[12:06] <herbchef> ompaul, terminal says Ogg Vorbis.
[12:06] <ic56> iceman: if you are getting output that mentions "hda0" then you did not type the command correctly.  Let's try again.  Type: "dmesg |hda.:" and tell me how many distinct 3-letter hdX's you see.
[12:07] <ProN00b> soundray, eh, no, whats in there ?
[12:07] <herbchef> ompaul, It's a file I recorded using "Sound Recorder". Totem will play for a while, then crash.
[12:07] <ompaul> herbchef, and how any other player?
[12:07] <dj28> is there an official release date for the next stable version of ubuntu?
[12:07] <soundray> maerk: do you have no connection at all on the ubuntu box, or a slow one?
[12:07] <ompaul> !dapper
[12:07] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[12:07] <dekela> DBO:  crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 4 2006-04-30 22:29 /dev/audio
[12:07] <dj28> thank you
[12:07] <herbchef> ompaul, I may just let bug buddy sit here for a while, it's not responding, it may just be taking a while to create a bug report.
[12:07] <herbchef> ompaul, I haven't tried any other player. Have any suggestions?
[12:08] <ompaul> xmms beep
[12:08] <soundray> ProN00b: I don't know it by heart, sorry. But it may have some answers for you.
[12:08] <herbchef> ompaul, k, I'll install xmms and give it a go.
[12:08] <belkin> any help ?
[12:08] <ompaul> herbchef, you will need universe you okay with that (I think so but some don't know)
[12:09] <DBO> dekela, can gxine make sound?
[12:09] <iceman> hda"WDC AC2850f, ata disk drive
[12:09] <herbchef> ompaul, Yeah, I have universe right now. Not too familiar with much linux software, but I've heard of xmms before.
[12:09] <maerk> soundray: my computer (as of today!) is dual boot, and I have a wireless connection. Ubuntu doesn't play nice with the wireless adapter (belkin, USB thingy). This means that ubuntu is completely isolated from the internet, my computer has no other connection.
[12:09] <ompaul> herbchef, actually I am wrong - its in main,
[12:09] <ic56> belkin: samba won't change the directory perms for you -- it will pass them on.  So you need to set them right on unix with the chmod command.
[12:09] <dekela> DBO: Only in stereo
[12:09] <DBO> dekela, thats noise... hrmmm
[12:10] <DBO> well down goes another theory
[12:10] <herbchef> ompaul, ya, I just found it in "Add Applications". I didn't have to "Synaptic".
[12:10] <ic56> iceman: ok.  So there is exactly *one* harddisk in your system.
[12:10] <iceman> ic56 4 things come up ... all info one one drive "HDA" ATA , MAX SIZE, SECTORS, Hda Catch size not supported
[12:10] <belkin> ic56 so what permission do i have to set  chmod 777 ?
[12:10] <dekela> DBO: This is the only thing I need and linux complete has taken over windoz
[12:10] <soundray> maerk: have you tried ndiswrapper with the wireless adapter? That's how I made my Belkin work.
[12:11] <DBO> dekela, well we cant let something this minor stop you
[12:11] <dekela> DBO: ;-)
[12:11] <steffi> soundray, when u unplug a usb hd, to plug it again and mount automatically, it needs to let some time off??
[12:11] <ompaul> herbchef, yet another way to do something :)
[12:11] <belkin> ic56 i couldnt even listen to the whole music that i share ..only a few of them ...
[12:11] <dekela> DBO: I am joking.. I actually like challenges
[12:11] <maerk> soundray: here's where I reveal my complete ignorance of linux, I'm used to nice little checkboxes and the control panel, how do i use ndiswrapper?
[12:11] <HymnToLife> steffi> did you unmount it before unplugging ?
[12:11] <soundray> steffi: I'd give it 20 seconds.
[12:11] <soundray> !ndiswrapper
[12:11] <ubotu> it has been said that ndiswrapper is a way to support Windows wireless drivers, but it is buggy compared to native support. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[12:12] <steffi> HymnToLife, it says cannot umount, and unplug it
[12:12] <iceman> ic56 2 hard drive .. i know i placed them in the system ... IDE 0 Drive 0 is a 854 meg harddrive with OPenstep installed ... Second drive on IDE0 is the CDROM ... Third drive is a 13 gig fat32 drive ... that are the Drives in this system and IDE locations ...
[12:12] <ic56>  Now, type this: "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda".  You will see a table of partitions, beginning with a table header that says "Device  Boot ...".  How many partitions are there?
[12:12] <btaylor5619> Can someone help me solve a problem I am having with Totem?
[12:12] <DBO> dekela, in gxine, when you go into the preferences (you may have to enable master of the known universe mode) what does it say for Audio -> Device -> last entry
[12:12] <ic56> iceman: Now, type this: "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda".  You will see a table of partitions, beginning with a table header that says "Device  Boot ...".  How many partitions are there?
[12:12] <_jason> btaylor5619: state the problem
[12:12] <erUSUL> !anyone
[12:12] <ubotu> A large amount 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>
[12:12] <HymnToLife> steffi> if it cannot unmount, I guess it's for a reason
[12:12] <lynn> anyone have any idea how to fix evolution when the send / recieve button is greyed out
[12:12] <belkin> ic56 please tell me whats the right permission for it ... i dont even need write permission .. i just want to be able to listen or copy the shared music files
[12:12] <dekela> DBO: plug:surround51:0
[12:13] <steffi> HymnToLife, haha bug :)
[12:13] <btaylor5619> "Totem could not startup. / The video output is in use by another application.  Please close other video applications, or select another video output in the Media Systems Selector."
[12:13] <btaylor5619> And yet I have no other applications open.
[12:13] <DBO> dekela, can you change the output to 4.0?
[12:13] <iceman> ic56 nothing in that list ... live cd has the unmounted .. :)
[12:13] <maerk> soundray: right... just type "!ndiswrapper" in the command thingy (I'm sorry, I'm a complete newbie :S)
[12:13] <ic56> iceman: If dmesg showed only one drive, then the Linux kernel detected only 1.
[12:13] <btaylor5619> So what could be wrong?
[12:13] <Steve^> I'm trying to configure lirc to use my remote and it says I need the the linux kernel source installed. Which package am I needing for the source?
[12:13] <ic56> iceman: did fdisk display an error message?
[12:13] <dekela> DBO: Well I have it on the one before: plug:surround40:0
[12:14] <DBO> Steve^, "linux-tree"
[12:14] <CryoTox> I need a program that can burn VCD's does anyone know one?
[12:14] <iceman> ic56 no drive will list tell i mount them from the live cd
[12:14] <soundray> maerk: look back to where I said '!ndiswrapper' and read ubotu's response to it. Follow the link.
[12:14] <ic56> belkin: what is the current permission?  Use "ls -ld <directory>" to find out
[12:14] <dekela> DBO: Changed it.. Not working as well
[12:14] <iceman> no list Disk /dev/hda 853 MB
[12:14] <Steve^> thanks
[12:14] <iceman> 16 heads
[12:14] <erUSUL> btaylor5619: maybe xine or mplayer are still arround (if you used them). try 'ps ax | grep xine' (or mplayer)
[12:14] <belkin> ic56 drwxrwxrwx  227 1000 1000 7152 2006-04-30 17:46
[12:14] <DBO> dekela, see if you can change it to mono
[12:15] <iceman> sec ..
[12:15] <herbchef> ompaul, XMMS played through the entire file without crashing. Thx!
[12:15] <btaylor5619> under "root"?
[12:15] <dekela> DBO: Mono and Stereo works
[12:16] <btaylor5619> "ps ax | grep xine" returned " 9108 pts/0  S+  0:00 grep xine"
[12:16] <DBO> dekela, what I needed to know, ok, now I know where to start digging
[12:16] <btaylor5619> and "ps ax | grep mplayer" returned nothing
[12:16] <ic56> belkin: that means permission 777.  That gives permission to everyone to do anything.  Wierd that windows would be complaining.  You sure you set the SAMBA stuff right?  (can't help you with samba -- no experience)
[12:16] <iceman> ic56 it list the drive as hda
[12:16] <Funcan_> Lo all. Anybody know what the gtk dev package is called now?
[12:16] <erUSUL> btaylor5619: have you used them prior to use totem
[12:16] <Steve^> DBO, sadly the lirc installer still doesn't think I have the sources installed...
[12:16] <lynn> anyone have any idea how to fix evolution when the send / recieve button is greyed out
[12:16] <dekela> DBO: Thank you very much for the effort.. This is why I love the comunity
[12:16] <btaylor5619> I have not.
[12:16] <belkin> ic56 yeah hope so
[12:17] <DBO> dekela, why cant you have an easy question, Im hungry =P
[12:17] <ompaul> herbchef, :-)
[12:17] <CryoTox> I need a program that can burn VCD's or SVCD's does anyone know of one?
[12:17] <Stormx2> Little offtopic: How can i check if a string contains another string in bash/terminal?
[12:17] <ic56> belkin: sorry I can't help further.
[12:17] <belkin> ic56 so what permission do i have to set for that dorectory anyway ?
[12:17] <maerk> oh my goodness, linux is harder than i thought it was!
[12:17] <ompaul> DBO, now do you use an away message?
[12:17] <DBO> ompaul, no?
[12:17] <dekela> DBO: You want an easy one? I am also looking for a good howto on gfxboot
[12:18] <dekela> DBO: Bonapetite
[12:18] <ic56> belkin: 755 would be reasonable.  It would give write perm to the directory's owner but not to others.  To get it right, you would need to tell samba to map the unix owner to the windows owner.
[12:18] <ompaul> DBO, sorry let me rephase this, how do you use an away message? :-)
[12:18] <DBO> ompaul, in IRC?
[12:18] <ic56> belkin: but, as a first approximation, settting it 777 ensures the problem isn't with the permissions mapping.  The problem is elsewhere.
[12:18] <ompaul> DBO its an easy question in irc :)
[12:19] <belkin> ic56 well i didnt set samba to use user ... i just set it to share without auth but only local ... so no connection from outside will allow to connect to it
[12:19] <btaylor5619> Any other possible solutions?
[12:19] <ic56> iceman: so fdisk doesn't give an error.  It lists the disk as having no partitions?
[12:19] <belkin> ic56 ok thanks
[12:19] <_jason> btaylor5619: have you restarted X?
[12:20] <herbchef> Okay, another question. How do I have a program called "ddclient" run as root automatically on startup?
[12:20] <iceman> ic56 exactly ... no errors .. drive listed ...
[12:20] <btaylor5619> so restart the computer, and Totem should work fine?
[12:20] <ic56> belkin: if samba isn't sharing with other computers... then which is the computer that's unable to read teh files?  You aren't making sense.
[12:20] <_jason> btaylor5619: no, just X should be sufficient
[12:20] <btaylor5619> hmmmmmm... how would i do that?
[12:20] <iceman> now mounting it for read at least ..
[12:20] <ic56> iceman: Does fdisk display this line: "Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System"?
[12:20] <lynn> evolution won't send and recieve email
[12:20] <lynn> any help
[12:20] <edgardpacheco> hi people
[12:20] <_jason> btaylor5619: save what you are working on, then press ctrl-alt-backspace
[12:21] <santi> hi everyone
[12:21] <btaylor5619> right
[12:21] <iceman> ic56 yes that lines displayed .. nothing below it
[12:21] <soundray> herbchef: 'sudo apt-get install ddclient' should arrange that for you
[12:21] <santi> I need some help with firestarter and NAT
[12:21] <belkin> ic56 it does share it with other computer ... but there is no risk if i allow to anyone write permission ...
[12:21] <herbchef> soundray, lol! I'll try it. I downloaded the binary and have been just running it manually...
[12:22] <Steve^> why is there not a kernel-source-2.16.12 package? That's the kernel I have installed..
[12:22] <ic56> iceman: ok, maybe there's no partitioning on the drive.  Try this: "sudo fsck /dev/hda".  Do you get an error message or does it make progress?
[12:22] <edgardpacheco> i have a problem, in the terminal everytime i use aptitude and i try to install a new program, it says "two packages aren't being used and will be deleted" the problem is that those packages are being used by firefox! and if i delete them firefox won't run! what should I do to stop receiving those messages?
[12:22] <santi> can somebody help me with NAT and networking?
[12:23] <dli> steffi, I think they changed the name to linux-source
[12:23] <edgardpacheco> in the past i deleted those packages and firefox didn't start... and now i can't do nothing because those packages will be deleted automatically when i install something new
[12:23] <ic56> belkin: ah. by local, you meant local network.
[12:23] <oc15> i need help with mounting my other hdds
[12:23] <mirak> hi
[12:23] <dli> Steve^, , I think they changed the name to linux-source
[12:23] <santi> I need some help to share my connection with another machine
[12:23] <steffi> dli, huh?
[12:23] <sambagirl> santi your best place to go for that support is #DNS
[12:23] <sambagirl> or #networking
[12:23] <soundray> edgardpacheco: put them on hold (hit H in aptitude)
[12:23] <dli> steffi, sorry, wrong nick
[12:23] <santi> i'll try, thanks sambagirl
[12:23] <sambagirl> your welcome santi
[12:23] <santi> join #networking
[12:23] <btaylor5619> _jason, restarting X had no effect; Totem is still giving me the same thing
[12:23] <mirak> there is a problem with ATI 9600pro and nforce2 chipset, I can't run dri overlay or opengl :-/
[12:23] <sambagirl> :)
[12:23] <Steve^> dli, ah that makes sense, thanks
[12:23] <mirak> with proprietary drivers
[12:23] <ic56> belkin: well, ask around for samba.
[12:23] <mirak> it fails
[12:23] <edgardpacheco> i don't understand
[12:24] <iceman> ic56 could not find superblock,
[12:24] <belkin> ic56 yeah..ok thanks man
[12:24] <iceman> ic56 tried to read it as ext2 filesystem
[12:24] <_jason> btaylor5619: did it ever work?
[12:24] <btaylor5619> i have not tried it before today
[12:24] <edgardpacheco> in aptitude i tiped "sudo aptitude install libgtk2.0-dev
[12:24] <edgardpacheco> " and then a lot of things appeared and then it said that 2 packages will be deleted because they are not in use
[12:25] <soundray> edgardpacheco: you know how you can mark a package for installation by hitting I? In the same way, you can keep a package at the current version by hitting H
[12:25] <ic56> iceman: did you type the command *exactly* as I told you?
[12:25] <edgardpacheco> no, i don't know how to mark a package, how do i do that?
[12:25] <edgardpacheco> what's the code?
[12:25] <Steff_breezy> hi, there are some weather applets for desklets , is it also possible to get this weather info in a terminal?
[12:26] <soundray> edgardpacheco: I see, you are using aptitude on the command line.

[12:27] <ikaruga2099> hello all
[12:27] <PuMpErNiCkLe> CryoTox: Generally, on Ubuntu, you don't - you use .deb files.  If you have to, though, use the 'alien' package.
[12:27] <Blissex> CryoTox: not usable on Ubuntu. Try the 'alien' program to convert to '.deb'
[12:27] <soundray> CryoTox: not at all, ideally. Is the software not in the repositories?

[12:28] <ixiion> i have configured my printer with cups a while ago , now i wanted to modify something and he ask me for as login and password , but i never befor got this question ??
[12:28] <santi> sorry, but nobody asks me in #networking, can somebody give me a hand to share my connection with another computer?
[12:28] <CryoTox> I'll check
[12:28] <lutra> anyone know any good ubuntu wallpaper websites ...not gnome-look
[12:28] <soundray> How do I write data to a file in R?
[12:28] <ikaruga2099> Just wanted to know if someone could help me setup perl and cgi scripts. (I already have apache running) I just installed the apache perl module, made sure it was enabled, restarted apache, but still no dice
[12:29] <DBO> dekela, what sound card have you?
[12:29] <lutra> soundray: you mean save the workspace?
[12:29] <ic56> santi: don't wait to be asked.  State your question and hopefully someone will take an interest and answer it.
[12:29] <santi> ok
[12:29] <_jason> btaylor5619: I'll be back in a few minutes
[12:29] <soundray> lutra: no, I mean write calculated results to an output file, so I can import them into MySQL
[12:29] <ic56> santi: that goes for all channels, not just #networking and #ubuntu.
[12:29] <btaylor5619> In that case, I shall wait.
[12:30] <lutra> soundray: ah...i've never done that but try #R
[12:30] <lutra> soundray: R is awesome though, ah?

[12:33] <DBO> dekela, yes, I am coming to the slow conclusion the issue is somewhere between your driver and the sound cards configuration, Im trying to track it down, but 90% of my unix experience deals with systems that dont even have a monitor
[12:33] <soundray> delcoyote: mknod should not be necessary. What kind of webcam have you got?
[12:33] <lutra> anyone know any good ubuntu wallpaper websites ...not gnome-look
[12:34] <delcoyote> soundray eyetoy from PS2
[12:34] <AngryElf> lutra, google
[12:34] <ikaruga2099> lutra: deviantart
[12:34] <yrjo> join #ubuntu.finnish
[12:34] <btaylor5619> Completed!
[12:34] <santi> I have 2 machines, one with ubuntu (this one) which has the modem connected, i want to share the connection with the other computer. Can somebody help me?
[12:34] <iceman> damit ... freaking live cd ...
[12:34] <yrjo> q
[12:34] <ic56> iceman: you still there?
[12:34] <lutra> AngryElf: there is one website that someone listed yesterday that had some great wallpapers that i can't find via google
[12:34] <AngryElf> a modem? :(
[12:34] <lutra> and it's annoying me
[12:34] <dekela> DBO: I see.. I must add that I tried a forum post suggestion which indicate an addition to the .alsarc config file which made my 5.1 work
[12:34] <iceman> ic56 rebooting the ubuntu cd ..
[12:34] <dekela> DBO: But then I lost my system sounds
[12:34] <delcoyote> getting some errors but im jumping through them little by little, this is like the Grand National
[12:34] <ikaruga2099> hey all just wanted to know if there was a perl and cgi script w/ apache guide out there somewhere
[12:35] <DBO> dekela, well that just wont do
[12:35] <AngryElf> lutra......just google image search then sort by largest size and you'll get a minimum of 1024x768(i think)
[12:35] <dekela> DBO: I agree
[12:35] <lutra> AngryElf: i'll give that a shot thanks
[12:35] <iceman> ic56 basicly it's osx installed on a Intel pc ... OPENSTEP grew to become OSX
[12:35] <erUSUL> santi: you need to enable ip_masquerading iirc
[12:36] <santi> how should i do?
[12:36] <dekela> DBO: This is what linux is still lacking... You need to really know your HW and how every SW module works and configured (In details) to make things work
[12:36] <ic56> iceman: try this: "sudo mount -o ufstype=openstep -r /dev/hda /mnt".  What do you get?
[12:36] <soundray> delcoyote: does ubuntu load the ov51x module for you?
[12:36] <iceman> ic56 i'm going to try a harddrive based linux install and read the drive form there
[12:36] <ic56> iceman: that won't make a difference.
[12:37] <delcoyote> no i get that FATAL error
[12:37] <steffi> soundray, can u tell me, how to add write access to my usb hd?
[12:37] <dekela> DBO: although it is making gigantic steps towords the goal
[12:37] <delcoyote> been searching all the web and i ended up in some french howto
[12:37] <soundray> steffi: does it get mounted now when you plug it in?
[12:37] <erUSUL> santi: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ShareInternetConnection. echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[12:37] <DBO> dekela, would you mind telling me what you entered in .alsarc?
[12:37] <steffi> soundray, I restart, and it is ok
[12:37] <iceman> ic56 i can reboot faster from the harddrive ... if's Zipslack installed to fat32 ...
[12:38] <delcoyote> i also tried EasyCam2 and i got another error couldnt find gnome.ui when i was lauchcam2(launching it)
[12:38] <dekela> DBO: Yes.. Now you move to Hold.. ;-)
[12:38] <santi> i'll take a look, thanks erUSUL
[12:38] <steffi> soundray, I have a usb stick, this is ok, I have write access when I plug it.. now I have a usb hard disk
[12:38] <ic56> iceman: why do you need to reboot?!  Whatever.  suit yourself.
[12:38] <erUSUL> steffi: it is fat32 or ntfs?
[12:38] <steffi> erUSUL, how can I see that?
[12:40] <erUSUL> steffi: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda (if this is the correct dev)
[12:41] <HymnToLife> or just sudo fdisk -l, it will show all the drives
[12:41] <steffi> erUSUL, HPFS/NTFS
[12:41] <HymnToLife> !tell steffi about ntfs
[12:41] <erUSUL> if it is ntfs you can not write to it from linux ;(
[12:42] <erUSUL> steffi:
[12:42] <iceman> ic56 totaly lost ... :(
[12:42] <steffi> erUSUL, ?
[12:42] <HymnToLife> hmm you can but it is very unsfe and considered risky
[12:42] <PS> hi, has anyone got ica working in tsclient?  i get an E_BAD_OPTION error when i try to connect to a server
[12:42] <soundray> delcoyote: about the /dev/video0 device file: it should be created automatically when you modprobe v4l
[12:42] <erUSUL> steffi:  if it is ntfs you can not write to it from linux :(
[12:43] <delcoyote> ill try that thanks soundray
[12:43] <steffi> erUSUL, I remember a kernel, before 2 years I think, it had an option for experimental NTFS write
[12:43] <Tedd> How do you mount an external HDD?
[12:44] <GigaClon> !mount
[12:44] <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
[12:44] <servando> how would i edit the startup script?
[12:44] <scifi> hey guys, this maybe completely unrelated, but ever since i installed ubuntu the clock on my xp partition has been an hour slower than the correct time.  any ideas ?
[12:44] <edgardpacheco> hello everybody
[12:44] <Hexidigital> does anyone know a good plugin download site for Xchat ver. 2.6.1?
[12:44] <Tedd> Thanks
[12:45] <edgardpacheco> does anyone knows how to put a package on hold in the aptitude?
[12:45] <erUSUL> steffi: if you would like to try you can serach google about captive (a experimental driver based on the windows one) or try and compile your own kernel and enable the very experimental support of the kernel (it only permits overwriting files of the same exact size iirc)
[12:45] <soundray> scifi: set UTC=no in /etc/default/rcS
[12:45] <btaylor5619> Can someone help me with a problem I have regarding DVDs?
[12:45] <ic56> scifi: Ubuntu and XP are disagreeing on what timezone the CMOS clock should use.
[12:45] <DBO> ok dekela, im going to go fooding, Im going to figure this one out, it has me confused, and thus interested, but I need brainfood
[12:46] <scifi> so soundrays solution shud work ?
[12:46] <ic56> scifi: what timezone are you in?
[12:46] <dekela> DBO: thanks.. dekela@gmail.com Write me when you want
[12:46] <scifi> GMT UK
[12:46] <edgardpacheco> please help, i have to put two packages on hold, otherwise they will be deleted
[12:46] <edgardpacheco> how do i put aptitude packages on hold?
[12:46] <soundray> scifi: of course it'll work.
[12:46] <scifi> :)
[12:47] <escapeFromNewYor> Hi, anyone want to help me with a puzzling synaptic issue?
[12:47] <ic56> scifi: yea.  if you're in the UK, then difference in the summer is exactly 1 hour.  Soundray's solution will work.
[12:47] <soundray> scifi: you could also leave it as it is, it'll rectify itself in October ;)
[12:47] <scifi> k ty
[12:47] <delcoyote> soundtray ,im in an old puter with icewm and might have old usb, that doesnt help?
[12:47] <soundray> edgardpacheco: did you try what I suggested?
[12:47] <delcoyote> soundray*
[12:48] <erUSUL> scifi: if you need confirmation i can asure you that it will either  work or destroy your hard disk XD
[12:48] <edgardpacheco> yes, and it didn't work :(
[12:48] <steffi> erUSUL, ..haha no no, its ok, thanx
[12:48] <ic56> scifi: you'll have to set the time, and reboot.  The time should then be right in both OSs
[12:48] <escapeFromNewYor> i'm getting a bunch of stat errors (no such file or directory), but i'm pretty sure my sources.list is pointing to the right places (i've restored it to the default configuration))
[12:48] <soundray> delcoyote: that shouldn't matter
[12:48] <lukasz_23> hey  iam looking for repo
[12:48] <lukasz_23> iam soory
[12:48] <lukasz_23> sorry
[12:48] <scifi> erUSUL: whaaaaaat? :O
[12:49] <soundray> edgardpacheco: sorry, you have to use the = key instead of H
[12:49] <delcoyote> hmmm thanks anyway soundray, still not working ill try some different way
[12:49] <scifi> erUSUL: that was a joke right? ^^
[12:50] <edgardpacheco> ok, give me the code please i don't understand
[12:50] <edgardpacheco> i open the terminal
[12:50] <edgardpacheco> then what do i do
[12:50] <erUSUL> steffi: no problem
[12:50] <toni123> hi
[12:50] <erUSUL> scifi: yes... sort of
[12:50] <toni123> I have that boot manager from UBUNTU
[12:50] <toni123> how can I remove it?
[12:50] <delcoyote> mmmm soundray now it does modprobe ov51x , ok, what should i do keep going?
[12:50] <soundray> edgardpacheco: search for the package you want to keep ('/', then type the name)
[12:50] <escapeFromNewYor> does anyone have a clean current sources.list for breezy?
[12:51] <IceTox> I'm trying to install a xmms plugin that accepts the playing of wmv and wma format.. Now, While I'm './configure' I get this error message that I miss gtk+ libary, but it seems to me I've got it. I've pasted both the configure error message and the apt-get install replies. Anyone can please help me? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13173
[12:51] <edgardpacheco> then what do i do
[12:51] <erUSUL> !tell escapeFromNewYor about sources
[12:51] <soundray> edgardpacheco: when you've found it, highlight it (up/down arrows) and press '='
[12:51] <Flannel> hey guys, I'm having problems moving courier(imap)'s mail folder from ~/Maildir to ~/.maildir, Ive switched the paths in /etc/imapd and -ssl, and reloaded them both with the initd script, anywhere else I need to be looking?
[12:51] <scifi> gonna test it now
[12:52] <edgardpacheco> ok i will try that
[12:52] <escapeFromNewYor> thanks, erUSUL
[12:52] <stagger> nvida-installer has changed my xorg.conf file. how can i have it back? i can't run dexconf cause my xorg installation is not finished. I can't finish xorg installation because it needs config.... what should i do?

[12:53] <Tallia1Kubuntu> hi there! how can i execute an application at boot, but not as root user but as user? furthermore it can't be used gnome or kde autostart
[12:53] <tarheel> still can not figure out why kubuntu would not load onto a dell 450 but ubuntu is downloading updates as I type
[12:53] <hyphenated> simonpca: you can play with him in private too
[12:53] <IceTox> ok erUSUL .. I just thought that the 2.*.* series were an approvement :-)
[12:53] <erUSUL> stagger: try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:53] <delcoyote> modprobe ov51x ok modprobe ov519_decomp kaput modprobe v4l kaput
[12:53] <tarheel> I got my figures crossed
[12:54] <iceman> wish there was a way to login to openstep as root with a GUI ..
[12:54] <toni123> I have the kubuntu boot menu...how can I remove it??
[12:54] <simonpca> ++
[12:54] <toni123> pls
[12:54] <Tallia1Kubuntu> hi there! how can i execute an application at boot, but not as root user but as user? furthermore it can't be used gnome or kde autostart
[12:54] <stagger> erUSUL no, it doesn't work, xserver-xorg wan't my old xorg.xxonfig. Without it i can even uninstall
[12:54] <soundray> Tallia1Kubuntu: don't repeat.
[12:55] <edgardpacheco> soundray please tell me how to do it in the terminal without entering the graphic mode
[12:55] <escapeFromNewYor> sourceomatic is awesome!
[12:55] <edgardpacheco> i tried what you said me but it didn't worked
[12:55] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: are you sure you want the application executed on boot and not on login?
[12:55] <edgardpacheco> i press "=" but it doesn't work
[12:55] <edgardpacheco> i press = on other packages and it works
[12:55] <soundray> Tallia1Kubuntu: from /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh call 'su - user program options'
[12:56] <Tallia1Kubuntu> Ic56: it's actually the same
[12:56] <edgardpacheco> but it doens't work on the package that i want
[12:56] <soundray> edgardpacheco: could you use synaptic instead of aptitude?
[12:56] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56: since i am always logged
[12:56] <toni123> How do I remove GRUB pls????
[12:56] <Flannel> toni123: what do you want to install instead of grub?
[12:56] <stagger> in which package is dexconf?
[12:57] <myk> is there any really awesome video editing software for ubuntu? im thinking along the lines of the Sony Vegas suite ( http://www.sonymediasoftware.com/products/vegasfamily.asp )
[12:57] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: soundray's answer is correct.  However there are issues with the environment in which the app is supposed to run.  Tell us what the application is.
[12:57] <Tallia1Kubuntu> amule
[12:57] <toni123> nothing for now
[12:57] <metalero> hola
[12:57] <Flannel> toni123: how do you plan on booting then?
[12:57] <toni123> just to delete linux temporarily
[12:57] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i just don't want a crash in kde/gnome cause the closing fo the connection
[12:57] <edgardpacheco> i tried
[12:57] <metalero> cual es el server en espaol
[12:57] <toni123> and when I delete it grub stays there
[12:57] <tritium> !es
[12:57] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:57] <edgardpacheco> but synaptic doesn't have the hold button or the hold command
[12:58] <Flannel> toni123: why are you deleting grub?
[12:58] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: and you use amule to download files to your home directory and read a config file from your home directory?
[12:58] <stagger> peter as i said, i'm unable to do that because i preconfiguration scripts needs xorg.conf
[12:58] <Tallia1Kubuntu> myk: kino is the only one i know
[12:58] <Flannel> toni123: to get back to windows? or what?
[12:58] <soundray> edgardpacheco: but it has a menu item Package-Lock Version. That is what you need.
[12:58] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56:yes
[12:58] <toni123> because I have windows only
[12:58] <edgardpacheco> ok
[12:58] <edgardpacheco> i will try
[12:58] <myk> Tallia1Kubuntu: thanks. i'll look it up.
[12:58] <tarheel> I have been told linux is not as secure as windows, well how does the ubuntu version of linux compare
[12:58] <Tallia1Kubuntu> that's why i require user space and not root space
[12:58] <erUSUL> toni123: cinelerra
[12:58] <Tallia1Kubuntu> myk: it's not so powerful though
[12:58] <Flannel> toni123: you need to use fixmbr for that, or boot to windows through grub (which is possible)
[12:58] <soundray> edgardpacheco: do or do not, there is no try (Master Yoda)
[12:59] <Flannel> tarheel: you've gotten some bad informants then
[12:59] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: Since I've never used amule, clarify this: is it a text-only app?
[12:59] <myk> Tallia1Kubuntu: meh, i'll check it out. if it doesn't work as well as i want it to, i'll be forced to keep windows ;) :D
[12:59] <immolo> tarheel, your source ran out of coffee that day :P
[12:59] <toni123> how do I do that pls?
[12:59] <erUSUL> tarheel: who told you that? it is the funiest thing i've heard here 8^P
[12:59] <tarheel> thank you
[12:59] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56: meh
[12:59] <stagger> tarheel looks like probocation ;)
[12:59] <edgardpacheco> haha ok thanks soundray :)
[12:59] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56: it's hard to say, since there are 2 way of running amule
[12:59] <Flannel> !tell toni123 about dualboot
[01:00] <Tallia1Kubuntu> the first is a GUI that do everything connection and visualization
[01:00] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: but you'll be running it in a non-GUI mode?
[01:00] <Flannel> toni123: use that guide, itll tell you how to put windows into your grub
[01:00] <Tallia1Kubuntu> the second, the one that i am trying to demonize, run in background
[01:00] <sinbox-again> anyone could help me with nicotine and an external HDD?
[01:00] <toni123> tnx ;)
[01:00] <Tallia1Kubuntu> and doesn't require GUI, then it has a GUI Http based interface
[01:00] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56: yes, the daemon that i want to start is in not gui mode
[01:01] <scifi> ok clocks correct now
[01:01] <Tallia1Kubuntu> but it have to be started in user space, since as you said before, preferences and settings are in my folder
[01:01] <Tallia1Kubuntu> furthermore i don't want a P2p applicaiton with root privileges
[01:01] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: ok.  You're better off starting it when you login rather than directly from init.  This way, it will inherit your personal environment variables, including /home/ic, /home/ic/arch/i586-Debian-3.1/bin:/home/ic/bin:/home/ic/bintmp:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin/mh:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games, , etc, all of which it needs to run.
[01:01] <scifi> but i have just discovered the ntfsprogs app i used to try and rename my mounted drive HAS renamed the partition in XP, but NOT in ubuntu LoL
[01:01] <scifi> whats going on there? :P
[01:02] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i see
[01:02] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: oops.  I meant $HOME, $PATH, $TEMP, etc
[01:02] <Tallia1Kubuntu> how can i start it at login?
[01:02] <immolo> Tallia1Kubuntu, maybe look into mldonkey it does everything you ask for plus is multinetwork aware
[01:02] <escapeFromNewYor> What are other reasons synaptic might not be able to stat the sources, assuming the sources.list entries are valid and the network interface is working properly?
[01:02] <Pr0hibited> ,dsf
[01:02] <Tallia1Kubuntu> yes, it's the same :)
[01:02] <soundray> scifi: that's the initial sign of the hard disk destruction that erUSUL warned you about ;)
[01:02] <Flannel> escapeFromNewYor: some other package maanger has a lock
[01:02] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: Ideally hmmmm
[01:03] <edgardpacheco> soundray i tried it but it didn't worked
[01:03] <scifi> soundray: dont scare me like that :P
[01:03] <Tallia1Kubuntu> yes! :)
[01:03] <davecb> im having trobule playing cds under kubuntu , kde recognizes the audio cds data but theres no sound what should i do?
[01:03] <edgardpacheco> i locked the version of the two files but it keeps appearing :'(
[01:03] <Pr0hibited> Hey, some guy is attacking my site atm with a botnet, I need some help. Is there any way to stop him? I have FireStarter started, etc etc. My connection has been out for a while. It's actually "there", but REALLY slow.
[01:03] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: you want it executed once, when you login but not repeatedly if you login multiple times.
[01:03] <escapeFromNewYor> Flannel: would that still give me stat(2 No such file or directory)?
[01:03] <erUSUL> Tallia1Kubuntu: i use mldonkey it is a daemon and it has startup scripts for init.d
[01:03] <Tallia1Kubuntu> yep
[01:03] <Tallia1Kubuntu> exactly
[01:03] <Hexidigital> does anyone know a good plugin download site for Xchat ver. 2.6.1?
[01:03] <Flannel> escapeFromNewYor: no idea, have you googled it?
[01:03] <soundray> edgardpacheco: what version of Ubuntu are you running?
[01:03] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: I wonder which will end up being more work...
[01:03] <Tallia1Kubuntu> erUSUL: immolo: i will try it.....
[01:04] <edgardpacheco> soundray 5.10
[01:04] <Flannel> Pr0hibited: "your site" meaning your home connection? or
[01:04] <davecb> im having trobule playing cds under kubuntu , kde recognizes the audio cds data but theres no sound what should i do?
[01:04] <Pr0hibited> yes my home connection
[01:04] <scifi> any ideas guys ?
[01:04] <escapeFromNewYor> Flannel: yeah, all i'm getting is "update your sources.list", which i've done
[01:04] <soundray> edgardpacheco: what are the names of the packages that cause you trouble?
[01:04] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56: wait.. it has an automate check
[01:04] <Tallia1Kubuntu> it will never start multiple times
[01:04] <mirak> anyone have a heard of problems with nforce2 and 9600pro ?
[01:05] <Tedd> mirak, which problems? :P
[01:05] <Baste> hi
[01:05] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: All right, you already have the init-based solution from soundray.  You should try it.  You might need to prepend a few env vars to make it work.  The alternative is to write a little wrapper script that touches a file to ensure it isn't already running.
[01:05] <Tedd> Linux and ATI usually don't agree.
[01:05] <edgardpacheco> soundray wait, i think i solved it!
[01:05] <Baste> anoyne know that Dapper Drake works with DWL 520 rev E1???
[01:05] <metalero> como dentro a ubuntu -es
[01:05] <edgardpacheco> soundray but only one package, the gcc-3.3-base, i solved that! :D
[01:05] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: oh, well, if it already does a check, then it's a no brainer: put it in your .bash_profile
[01:05] <mirak> Tedd: it fails, no dri with proprietary drivers
[01:05] <escapeFromNewYor> Flannel:  whoa, all i had to do was reload the package info after canceling the error message and it's grabbing them now
[01:05] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: no, wait that isn't working right in ubuntu.
[01:05] <Tedd> mirak: sorry, dude, can't help you
[01:05] <escapeFromNewYor> that's weird

[01:05] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ?
[01:06] <Baste> anoyne know that Dapper Drake works with DWL 520 rev E1???
[01:06] <JimRoepcke> Hi all.  I want to move my mail server from FC4 to Ubuntu Server.  I'm using cyrus 2.2.12.  I notice breezy is using 2.1.18 and dapper is using 2.2.12.  Is there any way to get 2.2.12 on breezy?  (I've got breezy server installed)
[01:06] <erUSUL> metalero: '/join #ubuntu-es' en tu program de chat. el mismo que este
[01:06] <edgardpacheco> i will do the same that i did with the other package, i installed another version of it (i think)
[01:06] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56: ?
[01:06] <soundray> edgardpacheco: firefox not working with gcc-3.3-base removed? That's strange.
[01:07] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: the trouble is that when you login on ubuntu via the GUI, I haven't yet figured out what the login script is.  It isn't .xsession and it isn't .bash_profile
[01:07] <btaylor5619> Can anyone here help me with a problem I am having with Totem playing my DVDs?
[01:07] <Baste> anoyne know that Dapper Drake works with DWL 520 rev E1???
[01:07] <HymnToLife> !helpme
[01:07] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[01:07] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i see
[01:07] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: .bashrc does get executed but that's pretty wasteful since it's executed for almost every command you run.
[01:07] <kbrooks> Hi all.
[01:07] <Tallia1Kubuntu> o. i see
[01:08] <btaylor5619> When I tell Totem to play my DVD, it responds with "Totem could not play 'dvd://'. / Could not read title information for DVD."
[01:08] <scifi> pls guys why doesnt the relabled name show up in ubuntu ?
[01:08] <soundray> Hi kbrooks
[01:08] <erUSUL> ic56: 8| ?? "any command you run"??
[01:08] <HymnToLife> btaylor5619> libdvdnav and libdvdcss installed ?
[01:08] <soundray> scifi: if someone knew, they would have replied.
[01:08] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: Anyway, before I forget, I should tell you that if you do use .bash_profile or some semblance thereof, you need to run the command with nohup
[01:08] <Baste> anoyne know that Dapper Drake works with DWL 520 rev E1???
[01:09] <erUSUL> !tell Baste about repeat
[01:09] <soundray> Baste: your question is not making sense.
[01:09] <scifi> soundray: sorry just thought it had been un-noticed
[01:09] <soundray> !patience
[01:09] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Please be aware there are a lot of questions, but only maybe few who might know the answer for you. Please be patient. Your attitude may determine their willingness to help you.
[01:09] <vook> btaylor5619, go get xine, totem is sorry.  you can get totem-xine if you insist on totem, but totem is just bad bad.
[01:09] <btaylor5619> Right.
[01:09] <Baste> anyone have DWL 520 rev E1?
[01:10] <MarcN> Baste: what is a DWL 520?
[01:10] <ic56> erUSUL: aproximately.  Everytime you spawn a new bash shell, .bashrc gets read.  bash shells gets spawned *very* often.
[01:10] <zenit> Baste: find out what chipset is on your card, then you might have a better chance getting it to work.
[01:11] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: like so: "nohup amule <args> &".  The nohup wrapper masks the HUP signal so that if the parent dies, or your you get logged out, amule won't die.
[01:11] <doms> how to extract .tgz file
[01:12] <vook> doms, tar -xzf
[01:12] <kbrooks> you're funny soundray
[01:12] <erUSUL> ic56: not that often in my usage. btw .bash_profile sources .bashrc so you are scr**d anyway ;)
[01:12] <vook> doms, tar -xjf for tar.bz2
[01:12] <SD> has anyone ever had grub from ubuntu keep on corrupting their winxp boot section?
[01:12] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56: in this case can't i use simply kde autostart
[01:12] <soundray> kbrooks: if you thought that was funny, your taste is as bad as mine.
[01:12] <Tallia1Kubuntu> and nohup
[01:12] <wenko> im trying to use the export command, is there anything i can use in place of it
[01:12] <Baste> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Device/DWL-520vE1
[01:12] <Baste> how install this card??
[01:12] <Pr0hibited> I need help.... My site keeps being DoS'd, I tried to contact me ISP and they wouldn't even help me. They just told me I had a virus. No, a guy told me he set up a botnet, and I can't even get on the internet on my other PC. (I have two different ISP's) Does anyone have any suggestions? I can't just ban the IP, there's LOADS of ips DoSIng me. :(
[01:12] <cornernote_> sello, i want to make an ubuntu box with DHCP visable on my network without using DNS.. can anyone help ?
[01:12] <erUSUL> wenko: export is a built in bash command
[01:13] <luis_> is there a safe way of updating my gnome to 2.14? i'm using 5.10
[01:13] <erUSUL> luis_: upgrading to dapper beta ;)
[01:13] <wenko> erUSUL its not letting me do  it
[01:14] <soundray> Pr0hibited: get tough on your ISP. Switch if necessary.
[01:14] <luis_> urUSUL: well yea.. but just the gnome, is it possible? :)
[01:14] <wenko> it says command not found
[01:14] <ic56> erUSUL: do you execute commands from within any program other than your command line bash?  Each of these invocations spawns a new bash.
[01:14] <erUSUL> Pr0hibited: only your ISP can help you
[01:14] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: are you ok will all this?
[01:14] <wenko> wenko@ubuntu:/usr/src $ sudo export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@cvs.digium.com:/usr/cvsroot
[01:14] <wenko> sudo: export: command not found
[01:15] <Pr0hibited> Can you guys just tell me how I could make it harder for people to do that 'PoD' thing on me ?
[01:15] <crunchyfish> has anyone had a problem with the dapper livecd during setup that says "hdc: ide_intr: huh? expected NULL handler on exit?", and it'll post that error a few times and then finally boot, and as soon as the desktop shows up the pc will either freeze or reboot?
[01:15] <Tallia1Kubuntu> ic56: in this case can't i use simply kde autostart and nohup to avoid killing?
[01:15] <Flannel> Pr0hibited: there are some scripts you can use to automatically deny things.  here are a few, there's one that I liked, on sourceforge, can't remember the name : http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=05/09/15/1655234
[01:15] <Pr0hibited> not possible to stop it ?
[01:15] <erUSUL> ic56: i think you are wrong here. it is true that bash issue a fork but it executes the command after that not a new bash
[01:15] <Flannel> crunchyfish: #ubuntu+1 for dapper.
[01:15] <bbrazil> Pr0hibited: that bug was fixed in linux a few hours after it was found
[01:15] <ic56> Tallia1Kubuntu: I don't know kde so not familiar with the autostart facility.
[01:16] <Pr0hibited> bbrazil, then how am I being attacked with it?
[01:16] <bbrazil> Pr0hibited: you're talking about Ping of Death right?
[01:16] <Pr0hibited> Correct.
[01:16] <wenko> can anyone explain this to me: wenko@ubuntu:/usr/src $ sudo export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@cvs.digium.com:/usr/cvsroot
[01:16] <wenko> sudo: export: command not found
[01:16] <bbrazil> Pr0hibited: people can still send you one, it just won't do anything special
[01:16] <vook> Pr0hibited, do you have root shell access to the server?  You need to start blocking all kinds of stuff.  One tool that will educate you (the hard way) is bastille.  It will break your system if you aren't careful though.  Bastille is for educational purposes only (not really ;-) )
[01:17] <ic56> erUSUL: say you are in vi.  You type :!ls to see what files already exist before saving and exiting.  vi didn't just exec(ls).  It invoked bash to do its dirty work.
[01:17] <doms> how to use find i would to search a fole name Zope
[01:17] <hartz_> Hello people.  I have just tried to compile 2.6.16.11 (my first kernel compile), but I get an error when I try to boot this kernel.  Like this: http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i199/jhartzen/kernel_err.jpg
[01:17] <doms> how to use find i would like to search a file name Zope
[01:18] <doms> how to use find i would like to search a folder name Zope
[01:18] <ic56> erUSUL: you are correct that bash itself will not spawn a new bash in order to execute a command.
[01:18] <Pr0hibited> bbrazil, I am being attacked by a bot net (even on this PC, I keep getting it all logged into my firewall as a PoD) It's only doing something to my linux server.. so I don't understand. See flameage.com - it's pretty much dead. :/ If you keep trying it will connect VERY slowly
[01:18] <erUSUL> ic56: vi does that but not bash itself and btw i do not use vi i use emacs ;). so not everytime i run a command i'm spawning a new bash
[01:18] <vook> doms, eh, try locate Zope, or find | grep Zope
[01:18] <soundray> !tell doms about repeat
[01:18] <edgardpacheco> soundray yes, that's strange
[01:18] <bimberi> doms: use 'locate Zope' (use 'sudo updatedb' to update the locate database if required)
[01:19] <bbrazil> Pr0hibited: that's probably A DDoS, good luck
[01:19] <ic56> erUSUL: yes
[01:20] <edgardpacheco> soundray i solved it!! thanks!!! i installed the dependences of the two files, i mean, i installed the other files that carry the same names
[01:20] <erUSUL> ic56: and as i already said youcan not avoid the problem using .bash_profile becouse .bash_profile sources .bashrc so you are scr**d anyway ;) (by default)
[01:20] <edgardpacheco> aparently it was a version difference, because i have installed libstdc++5  and their dependencies were from the version 6 of that file
[01:20] <edgardpacheco> so i installed the other 5 version files
[01:20] <edgardpacheco> and it solved!! :D:D
[01:20] <ic56> erUSUL: I'm not sure we are talking about the same problem.
[01:21] <hartz> Hello Pleople.  I've just tried to compile and install a new kernel (2.6.16.11).  When I try to load it I get an error like this: http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i199/jhartzen/kernel_err.jpg
[01:21] <soundray> edgardpacheco: glad you're happy :)
[01:21] <hartz> Any help!?
[01:21] <edgardpacheco> soundray thanks for all the help
[01:21] <lsuactiafner> when will dapper be out?
[01:22] <Flannel> June 1
[01:22] <biovore> atm june
[01:22] <lsuactiafner> thanks
[01:22] <hartz> Anybody!?
[01:22] <soundray> hartz: this is a wild guess: if you have SATA, change your hd device entries from hda to sda or vice versa.
[01:22] <edgardpacheco> i have to go now
[01:22] <edgardpacheco> bye
[01:22] <soundray> hartz: in grub
[01:23] <hartz> soundray .... I jsut copied the entry for the currently working kernel, and change the file name to point to the new image
[01:23] <cornernote_> hello, i want to make an ubuntu box with DHCP visable on my network without using DNS.. can anyone help ?
[01:23] <Pr0hibited> aye, yeah. It IS a DDoS attack (Sorry for late reply) ... I'm looking at my windows logs, and there's something else in there that is in there a lot.. could be happening to my server. "Security type: Active Response"  ... Know what I'm talking about ?
[01:24] <soundray> hartz: do you use a root= parameter?
[01:24] <rafael> Anybody speek portuguese?
[01:24] <soundray> !br
[01:24] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[01:24] <rubso> hi
[01:24] <capiCrimm> anyone know what gnomes screen capture program is called?
[01:24] <hartz> soundray, yes indeed, it looks liek this: kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16.11 root=/dev/sda1 ro quiet splash
[01:24] <capiCrimm> or a good screen capture program for xfce
[01:25] <Pr0hibited> Traffic from IP address 196.25.216.177 is blocked ((That's the most info it gave)
[01:25] <wenko> how do i install cvs
[01:25] <soundray> hartz: SATA or scsi?
[01:25] <hartz> soundray > SATA
[01:25] <jisatsu> is there any reason by default that Ubuntu would block bittorrent traffic? or should I look elsewhere, like my isp?
[01:25] <raul> hello
[01:25] <soundray> capiCrimm: xwd
[01:25] <Riddell> jisatsu: ubuntu wouldn't block it
[01:25] <raul> i have a problem with kubuntu
[01:25] <jisatsu> Riddell, ok, thanks :)
[01:26] <raul> have someone help me??
[01:26] <PuMpErNiCkLe> !anyone
[01:26] <ubotu> A large amount 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>
[01:26] <Riddell> raul: state your problem
[01:26] <soundray> hartz: change it to root=/dev/hda1 and try again.
[01:26] <raul> i have installed kde
[01:26] <ic56> !kubuntu
[01:26] <ubotu> rumour has it, kubuntu is Ubuntu+KDE (not a fork) ; see http://kubuntu.org and you can go to #kubuntu for KDE-related help, or install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop; ISOs: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/breezy/
[01:26] <raul> and i have some applications that i can not make run
[01:27] <jramsey> capiCrimm, try this http://www.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=04/08/16/2128226
[01:27] <Flannel> hey guys, I'm having problems moving courier(imap)'s mail folder from ~/Maildir to ~/.maildir, Ive switched the paths in /etc/imapd and -ssl, and reloaded them both with the initd script, anywhere else I need to be looking?  my imap clients still look at the old directory.
[01:27] <SD> ok then ubotu: i dual boot winxp and ubuntu. why does grub keep corrupting my mbr, meaning that i cant boot xp?
[01:27] <hartz> soundray > I am willing to try that but like I said:  This is a copy of the entry for my current kernel, with only the image file name different, so it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
[01:27] <Flannel> !dualboot

[01:27] <Flannel> SD: just use grub to boot windows
[01:28] <maerk> i'm trying to to install ndiswrapper but i'm finding it extremely difficult to make my way around linux, being a complete newbie. are there any good "introduction to linux for windows retards" resources out there?
[01:28] <SD> Flannel: I am using grub to boot windows. after a few boots i can still boot ubuntu, but xp will no longer boot.  I run fixmbr from xp disk, reinstall grub, everything is fine then it stops working again
[01:30] <hartz> soundray?
[01:30] <soundray> maerk: since I put you on that track, I'll guide you through it if you pm me.
[01:30] <raul> i don't speak english very well
[01:30] <raul> do you understand me after
[01:30] <doms> objectis.org or objectis.net or objectis.com what is correct
[01:30] <maerk> sadly i'm using windows at the moment, but i'll pm you anyway ;)
[01:30] <jramsey> maerk, try www.justlinux.com/
[01:31] <maerk> if i can work out how to do it with mIRC!
[01:31] <Ademan> can i use gparted to resize my swap partition? (i have 768 system ram and i wasn't sure how much swap i REALLY needed so i gave myself 11 gb of swap)
[01:31] <soundray> hartz: take my advice or leave it. It's up to you.
[01:31] <AngryElf> maerk are you setting up ndiswrapper for a wireless card?
[01:31] <hartz> soundray, back in a sec....
[01:31] <maerk> setting up for a USB adapter
[01:32] <maerk> i'm on a desktop PC
[01:32] <HymnToLife> damn, 11 GB swap O_o
[01:32] <biovore> 11 GB of swap... thats a bit excessive by any standard
[01:32] <scifi> whats the rename command ?
[01:32] <xbox_sky> anyone know of a good SFV that generates sfv?
[01:32] <tritium> scifi: mv
[01:32] <xbox_sky> scifimv
[01:32] <biovore> scifi: like rename a file?
[01:32] <scifi> ty
[01:33] <scifi> or drive :p
[01:33] <biovore> scifi: just mv it
[01:33] <xbox_sky> cksfv I can't find an argument to generate sfv
[01:33] <muraii> Hi.  This should be quick: do either of the "mousedev" or "psmouse" modules operate a laptop trackpad, generally speaking?
[01:33] <xbox_sky> is that the only sfv for linux?
[01:34] <scifi> mv: cannot stat `hdb1': No such file or directory
[01:34] <scifi> , hhmmm
[01:34] <Ademan> but anyways my question was can i resize with gparted?
[01:34] <HymnToLife> Ademan> depends which FS
[01:34] <xbox_sky> scifi absolute path?
[01:34] <soundray> hartz, why hdb1?
[01:35] <Ademan> well i wanna shrink the swap partition, which has its own fs i though
[01:35] <Ademan> t
[01:35] <HymnToLife> it seems pretty dangerous to me scifi
[01:35] <HymnToLife> Ademan> then yes, GParted can do it
[01:35] <theSamo> how do i automatically remove all .deb packages of previous versions than currently in use?
[01:35] <Ademan> and then grow my xfs partition?
[01:35] <scifi> trying to rename it to what its already renamed to in XP
[01:35] <bbrazil> theSamo: sudo apt-get autoclean
[01:35] <theSamo> bbrazil: thanks
[01:35] <xbox_sky> anyone know of a good SFV that generates sfv?
[01:36] <hartz> Hi I am back .... Soundray I get exactly the same error.
[01:36] <doms> how to use zope on ubuntu

[01:45] <darkcross2180> thank you.
[01:45] <edgardpacheco> please anyone knows? what's the difference between universe and multiverse?
[01:45] <scifi> hmm just read something, my ubuntu partition is on the same drive as the xp partition so cud that explain unmount and renaming issues, because even a swap file in use cud make the drive "busy" ?
[01:45] <jramsey> darkcross2180, yw
[01:46] <tarheel> are there any known problems using ubuntu with kvm switch  ie one monitor and mouse
[01:46] <bimberi> edgardpacheco: http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components
[01:46] <scifi> but apparently a lazy unmount -l wud avoid this problem
[01:46] <HymnToLife> scifi> I still don't get why you want to rename the drives
[01:47] <soundray> !tell edgardpacheco about components

[02:07] <mythica> make[1] : *** No rule to make target `init/main.o', needed by `init/built-in.o'.  Stop.
[02:07] <made> so does that make crossover office compatible with ubuntu?
[02:07] <johncudd> how do i change my profile in firefox????
[02:07] <L00K> sorry had to afk
[02:07] <beingmrkenny> itrebal: maybe the server sent the wrong HTTP header
[02:07] <mikdeazy> made then its a windows wrapper for linux - like wine - does that help ?
[02:07] <mythica> Anyone else know why I could be getting that, when running make modules from /usr/src
[02:08] <Flannel> hey guys, I'm having problems moving courier(imap)'s mail folder from ~/Maildir to ~/.maildir, Ive switched the paths in /etc/imapd and -ssl, and reloaded them both with the initd script, anywhere else I need to be looking?  my imap clients still look at the old directory.

[02:08] <johncudd> usr account?
[02:08] <itrebal> beingmrkenny: afaict its sending the correct headers :/
[02:08] <jml> dli: I honestly have no clue what's doing it. I've killed the process, and I'll test the cron job now to see if it triggers the same ip change.
[02:08] <beingmrkenny> itrebal: then i don't know :)
[02:08] <beingmrkenny> sorry!
[02:08] <L00K> accidently deleted user account

[02:09] <Dr_Willis> !alien
[02:09] <ubotu> [alien]  a program to convert RPMs to DEBs. Its use is discouraged, as it could create serious problems. Website: http://www.kitenet.net/programs/alien/
[02:09] <dli> jml, make sure you are not rooted, if a weird cron job shows up
[02:09] <itrebal> bah, ok
[02:09] <Hotwheelz> hi guys how's it going?
[02:09] <jml> dli: good call.
[02:09] <johncudd> How do I change my user profile in firefox??
[02:09] <L00K> shall i wait my turn ?
[02:09] <Dr_Willis> L00K,  so you just have the root user now and thats it?
[02:10] <Hotwheelz> I have a question for you is anyone here running a Microsoft Optical Desktop Elite For Bluetooth?
[02:10] <dli> jml, rkhunter , chkrootkit
[02:10] <johncudd> How do I change my user profile in firefox??
[02:10] <mikdeazy> anyone ,... anyone ALS300 supported ,.. .anyone ???/
[02:10] <NickGarvey> johncudd: what do you want to change?
[02:10] <Dr_Willis> johncudd,  try googling fior an answer yet?
[02:11] <jml> dli: yeah, I reckon I'd better
[02:11] <NickGarvey> mikdeazy: what would that be?  I'd say google is your best bet for questions like that
[02:11] <imbrandon> johncudd, umm thats not very ubuntu related , plus you can find the awnser easy on google
[02:11] <johncudd> lol goodness I am an idiot today. I havent googled it yet. What am I thinking. I've lost my mind.
[02:11] <jml> dli: I think it might just be that the dhclient process was running, and something in the cron job sent it a sighup.
[02:11] <jml> dli: but a little paranoia is healthy.
[02:12] <mikdeazy> NickGarvey - im looking on ubuntu support with no luck so far
[02:12] <amphi> L00K: did you delete the user's home directory?
[02:12] <NickGarvey> mikdeazy: what is it?  "ALS300 linux" could help
[02:12] <jramsey> mikdeazy, realtek would be a better option for their sound card linux driver
[02:12] <NickGarvey> ah, sound card
[02:13] <mikdeazy> jramsey ok thanks
[02:13] <L00K> yes
[02:14] <mikdeazy> NickGarvery linux pci ID Repository has no maintainers for ALS300 or 300+
[02:14] <L00K> sorry wife just came home
[02:14] <jramsey> mikdeazy, what do you see at all in the log files?
[02:14] <amphi> L00K: ah... you could boot in single user mode and create a new user; you'd need to add that user to several groups for it to behave like the old one, I think
[02:15] <mikdeazy> i can get the card to load but when i play music from xmms it comes out asif its 100x speed or ramping the frequencies
[02:15] <L00K> ok i did add old user back but not sure why the skel is blank
[02:15] <L00K> cant cp it
[02:15] <amphi> L00K: someone here could give you the default list of groups the user should be in; I'm on debian ATM, so I can't ;)
[02:15] <mikdeazy> it looks asif it might be in the next version of Fc5 kernel
[02:16] <L00K> ok amphi ty
[02:16] <jramsey> mikdeazy, well i see one patch reference that is in 2.6.17 and it relates somehow to the als300; maybe this is a known bug that has just been fixed??  i am not sure
[02:16] <L00K> is there any type of sys restore point :)
[02:16] <steve_> some of my folders are not showing up in samba shares.... do the have to be readable by GROUP?
[02:16] <Kr0ntab> L00K, what user you refering to...

[02:23] <amphi> made: ubuntu uses deb
[02:24] <jml> hmm. nothing weird, and the ip hasn't changed. :\
[02:24] <biovore> luis_: packages.ubuntu.com maybe..
[02:24] <made> I've got that. but there could atleast be some type of tut that helps people understand how to convert rpm into deb..
[02:24] <HymnToLife> !alien
[02:24] <ubotu> methinks alien is a program to convert RPMs to DEBs. Its use is discouraged, as it could create serious problems. Website: http://www.kitenet.net/programs/alien/

[02:24] <luis_> biovore: yeah now it's ok :)
[02:25] <amphi> made: you shouldn't need to; when there's no deb, I'd prefer to compile from source than muck about with rpms
[02:25] <biovore> nwonknu: dapper has 1.5.0.3
[02:25] <Tennessee> made: rpm isn't for ubuntu
[02:25] <biovore> (1.5.0.2)
[02:25] <Tennessee> made: rpm is for RedHat.
[02:25] <HymnToLife> or Mandrake
[02:25] <nwonknu> biovore, dapper?
[02:25] <jramsey> ubotu tell made about alien
[02:25] <Tennessee> made: The ubuntu equivalent is called apt, and the GUI version is called synaptive
[02:25] <Tennessee> synaptic sorry
[02:25] <made> well I have a copy of crossover office but it was originally tarred.. and inside the tar was a rpm
[02:25] <HymnToLife> Synaptic* ;)
[02:25] <Tennessee> made: It installs stuff for you
[02:26] <doms> how to configure a wireless monitor
[02:26] <Newbuntu> can anyone help me with a problem ?> I'm trying to install the dj software called Gdam , there is no all-in-one deb package for it so im trying to compile it from source but I get this error:  configure: error: Cannot find Gtk - gtk-config missing from path?
[02:26] <made> I can't figure out alien
[02:26] <jramsey> ubotu tell doms about rules
[02:26] <Tennessee> made: Then you're up the creek. RPMs are hard to make work on ubuntu, but if you're willing to get out your screwdriver and take some risks then it's not actually impossible.
[02:26] <jramsey> !alien
[02:26] <ubotu> alien is, like, a program to convert RPMs to DEBs. Its use is discouraged, as it could create serious problems. Website: http://www.kitenet.net/programs/alien/

[02:27] <jramsey> made, what cant u figure out?

[02:33] <Newbuntu> thanks I'll let you know
[02:33] <L00K> so im outta luck ?
[02:34] <holy_cow> i'm betting thats msftp
[02:34] <amphi> L00K: yeah, I'd say so, unless you search the raw device, and that's only good for human-readable text
[02:34] <soundray> holy_cow: works fine here. But you should install that through the package.
[02:34] <Newbuntu> haha now it says libglade  not found
 is anyone actually able to download this: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz ----->use this  http://download.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz

[02:35] <amphi> L00K: no worries
[02:36] <dockane> hi all ... i read that hardlinks do not work across partitions. is there another way to "link" a directory from one harddisk to another ? (excluding 'mount')

[02:36] <holy_cow> *hmmm*
[02:36] <L00K> on linux for about a month :)
[02:36] <amphi> Newbuntu: you did apt-cache search libglade ?
[02:36] <holy_cow> DeVilSoulBlacK, so you don't have prob with either link iguess?
[02:36] <Newbuntu> yes and theres loyts of similar names

[02:36] <L00K> lol amphi
[02:37] <holy_cow> DeVilSoulBlacK, i didn't ask for you to give me a link, i asked if you have problems downloading the file
[02:37] <L00K> ok so there is now folder that backs anything up ?
[02:37] <L00K> opps no ^
[02:37] <DeVilSoulBlacK> holy_cow  a purrrrrrrrrrrrrr
[02:37] <delcoyote> acpi=off??
[02:37] <DeVilSoulBlacK> bitch
[02:37] <amphi> L00K: not unless you give such a command
[02:37] <mythica> "bunzip2: lirc-0.8.0.tar.bz2 is not a bzip2 file.
[02:37] <mythica> "
[02:37] <mythica> ????
[02:37] <L00K> shoot !
[02:37] <holy_cow> DeVilSoulBlacK, sweet, must be something wrong with router then ... odd
[02:37] <amphi> mythica: do 'file lirc-0.8.0.tar.bz2' to see what it really is
[02:38] <thepeanutbutter7> hi
[02:38] <L00K> so when a user account is deleted the etc/skel is blnaked out too ?
[02:38] <mythica> ta
[02:38] <someuser> is there an installer on the live cd?
[02:38] <soundray> delcoyote: blacklist usbcore in /etc/hotplug
[02:38] <soundray> someuser: not for breezy
[02:39] <someuser> i see
[02:39] <someuser> thanks
[02:39] <amphi> L00K: no, /etc/skel should not be affected, but that's very basic config stuff, shell rc scripts and so on
[02:39] <someuser> thanks
[02:39] <L00K> ok when i nano it its blank ?
[02:39] <amphi> L00K: nano what?
[02:39] <L00K> the /etc/skel
[02:39] <_zblach> so, it would be '/me admits to being a noob
[02:39] <thepeanutbutter7> i downloaded the dapper beta2 cd image but when i try to boot from the cd i burned it says: ran out of input data then says system halted
[02:40] <soundray> thepeanutbutter7: sounds like the burn failed.
[02:40] <delcoyote> soundray trying to install ubuntu with usb off, but cant get to bios no option there
[02:40] <amphi> L00K: that's a directory; you'll see the files if you do 'ls -l /etc/skel'
[02:40] <L00K> ahhh ok
[02:40] <amphi> L00K: er, ls -a I mean
[02:40] <L00K> let me try that
[02:41] <amphi> L00K: they're just default shell config files
[02:41] <thepeanutbutter7> soundray:yah thats what i though so i burned it again and still get the same message on two computers
[02:41] <L00K> ok but the forum said to cp them to the new user account
[02:41] <amphi> L00K: if you removed your user's home directory, its contents are gone
[02:42] <L00K> so no gohst of the old one would be in the /etc/skel ?
[02:42] <amphi> L00K: if you created the user with adduser(8), they should be there; what does ls -a /home/whatever show?
[02:43] <L00K> trying now one sec
[02:43] <amphi> L00K: no, /etc/skel is the default setup for a new user's shell
[02:43] <L00K> oh !
[02:43] <thepeanutbutter7> should i download it again? i used a torrent
[02:43] <corey> anyonne know where the  menu/optioons for the systeminfo plugin for xchat show up?
[02:43] <L00K> should i paste it here
[02:43] <amphi> L00K: if you make changes in there, new users created with adduser will have that config automagically
[02:43] <amphi> L00K: no, no
[02:43] <L00K> lol ok
[02:43] <soundray> thepeanutbutter7: check that the downloaded iso is the same size as on the download sites.
[02:44] <L00K> pm ?
[02:44] <thepeanutbutter7> it is
[02:44] <amphi> L00K: what do you want to paste? there's probably just .bashrc & .bash_profile
[02:44] <bimberi> thepeanutbutter7: did you check the md4sum
[02:44] <bimberi> *md5sum (D'Oh)
[02:44] <L00K> no lil more then that
[02:44] <thepeanutbutter7> icouldent find one.
[02:44] <L00K> can i pm it to ya
[02:44] <soundray> thepeanutbutter7: there is also a consistency check as a boot option (md5sum)
[02:45] <amphi> L00K: yeah
[02:45] <L00K> ok :)
[02:45] <thepeanutbutter7> itwont get to the consistency check it gives the same error
[02:45] <corey> does anyone know where the optioons/commands for system info scripts for xchat show up?
[02:45] <thepeanutbutter7> look:shur
[02:47] <bimberi> thepeanutbutter7: http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06/MD5SUMS
[02:48] <thepeanutbutter7> sadly its the kubuntu live i downloaded
[02:48] <Wolvenhaven> has anyone successfully gotten a linksys wireless-g wmp54g pci adaptor to work with ubuntu, or am i wasting my time, ive tried ndiswrapper and some drivers, i want to know if anyone was successful before i say screw it
[02:49] <ChibiHumanDESU> I need help with working drivers for a ATI Radeon 850x.
[02:49] <stephelton-lapto> what's the package name of the official jdk?
[02:50] <Tedd> ATI + Linux = Parse error.
[02:50] <Eleaf> humm
[02:50] <thepeanutbutter7> k i got the kubuntu md5 now how do i check it?
[02:50] <stephelton-lapto> md5sum <target>
[02:51] <soundray> Wolvenhaven: do you have a hardware version number? V.4 is supposed to work with the ralink driver (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards)
[02:51] <Wolvenhaven> the windows cd i have for it says 1.2
[02:51] <thepeanutbutter7> am i supposed to put the in a file?
[02:51] <Wolvenhaven> so im guessing v1.2
[02:51] <thepeanutbutter7> i havent ever used md5
[02:51] <dai> #ubuntu-cn
[02:52] <soundray> Wolvenhaven: I doubt that that's the hardware version.
[02:52] <nwonknu> if im using breezy is it ok to use dapper repositories?
[02:52] <Wolvenhaven> i dont have the box
[02:52] <_jason> nwonknu: no
[02:52] <cafuego> nwonknu: No, then you'd be using dapper, eh?
[02:53] <soundray> Wolvenhaven: would it be difficult to look at the card?
[02:53] <Wolvenhaven> i have a clear atx case, so no
[02:53] <anto9us> nwonknu, no, you can do a dist-upgrade with them though
[02:54] <nwonknu> has it been officially released yet
[02:54] <nwonknu> or is it in beta stages?
[02:54] <anto9us> nwonknu, no, dapper isn't ready for production systems yet
[02:54] <_jason> nwonknu: still beta
[02:55] <Wolvenhaven> soundray: im new to linux, im having problems mounting my c: drive so i can access my docs, so getting this wirelesscard to work, which all my ubuntu friends are making a pool on to see if i will get it working, is near impossible for me
[02:56] <creatureofSpace> in Moskow come morning
[02:56] <nwonknu> im just wondering how come theres been no update on the repositories for firefox since the version i have is 1.07 and its known to have major exploits
[02:56] <dai> why when i start music player it saies failed to create the player; Couldn't initialize scheuler, did you run gst-register
[02:56] <anto9us> nwonknu, security patches are in there
[02:56] <_jason> nwonknu: ubuntu makes a stable release every 6 months and then provides security updates only.  There is also a backports project, but not every package can be safely backported from the development version.
[02:57] <Nullified> how do i set permissions on my external HDD so that a user group can write to it please!
[02:57] <Wolvenhaven> is there an auto update for ubuntu?
[02:58] <soundray> Wolvenhaven: yes, there is.
[02:58] <anto9us> Wolvenhaven, yes, you'll see a little icon near the clock when updates are available
[02:58] <soundray> Wolvenhaven: what's your hardware version now?
[02:58] <_jason> dai: try opening a terminal and running 'gst-register-0.8'
[02:58] <dai> thank you
[02:58] <Wolvenhaven> i would have to shutdown and pull the card out, its facing down

[03:01] <Tallia1Kubuntu> hi there? how can i force the uninstallation of a package?
[03:01] <_jason> Nullified: what filesystem does it use?
[03:01] <Nullified> Linux ex3
[03:01] <FR500> hi channel
[03:01] <Steve^> Can you make gnome remember all the open programs when you shut down.. like in KDE?
[03:01] <_jason> Nullified: use chmod/chown to set the proper permissions
[03:02] <_jason> Steve^: yes, system > preferences > sessions
[03:02] <Nullified> _jason, Thanks ill try that now
[03:02] <Tallia1Kubuntu> how can i force the uninstallation of a package? i have an error in the preremoval script, but i want to uninstall anyway
[03:02] <Spitty> hey everyone
[03:02] <bimberi> doms: you'll need a mysql database adapter - ZMySQLDA (iirc) - #zope will know better
[03:03] <scifi> neone else use KPovmodeler ?
[03:04] <Spitty> i have a question about filing a bug- I have a massive syslog to attach to the bug; is there a better way to connect it with the bug other than just putting the whole thing in the bug report?
[03:04] <Steve^> _jason, is there no way to make gnome keep track of all the windows and the desktop they are on, rather than just some?
[03:04] <_jason> Spitty: you can compress it with bzip2 and then attach it to the report (there is an attachments option on the sidebar)
[03:05] <_jason> Steve^: I don't know
[03:05] <Steve^> :(
[03:05] <FR500> wow, dapper beta rocks
[03:06] <Spitty> ah, that makes sense. thanks _jason!
[03:06] <Eleaf> FR500, interesting
[03:07] <Tallia1Kubuntu> how can i force the uninstallation of a package? i have an error in the preremoval script, but i want to uninstall anyway
[03:07] <FR500> wrong channel anyway
[03:07] <doms> how to install zmysqladapter
[03:07] <_jason> Tallia1Kubuntu: might help if you mention the package

[03:08] <holy_cow> anyone know of flash plugin mirrors out there?
[03:08] <Tallia1Kubuntu> mldonkey-server
[03:08] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i created the mess deleting a file in the etc folder
[03:08] <_jason> holy_cow: flashplugin-nonfree is in breezy's multiverse
[03:08] <pilgrim> My backspace key is broken (i.e. I press it and get no results). HOw can I make the "|" key to be the "backspace" key?
[03:08] <troavr> exit
[03:08] <holy_cow> _jason, its not, it downloads the plugin from macromedia which i can't download
[03:09] <holy_cow> in other words, does anyone know of a mirror of the tar.gz flash plugin pls?
[03:09] <_jason> holy_cow: download it from macromedia.com and use 'sudo update-flashplugin -l /path/to/directory/containing/flashtar.gz'
[03:09] <Spitty> holy_cow, it was down last night too... keep trying, and it should come back up
[03:09] <pilgrim> holy_cow, take the exact .tar.gz name and search for it in googl.e
[03:09] <holy_cow> _jason, please stop giving me stupid information and actually read what i said
[03:10] <holy_cow> thank you
[03:10] <holy_cow> jesus
[03:10] <Utopiate> wha?
[03:10] <Utopiate> whoa
[03:10] <amphi> pilgrim: you need the | key ;) make something like pause backspace
[03:10] <holy_cow> Spitty, no actually everyone can download it fine but me bro
[03:10] <_jason> holy_cow: relax please
[03:10] <pilgrim> amphi, yeah I agree. but how do I change the key behaviour ?
[03:11] <holy_cow> pilgrim, nada, i remember an ubuntu mirror somewhere but cant find linkage right now
[03:11] <Spitty> that's odd
[03:11] <pilgrim> amphi, (Even better is right "Ctrl")
[03:11] <amphi> pilgrim: loadkeys and/or edit /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz
[03:11] <doms> my zope-mysqldata is installed how can i browse it my localhost:8080
[03:11] <amphi> pilgrim: yeah, right ctrl'd be a good one
[03:11] <holy_cow> Spitty, *nod* i just called the isp and they can even download it ... router is not an issue as i'm on direct, modem might be *f*ing it but i don't exactly have an extra one
[03:11] <_jason> holy_cow: all you had to do was saying you couldn't do a direct download, I have the tar.gz if you wan't a dcc
[03:12] <holy_cow> _jason, stop assuming everyone is a newb and learn to read, and respond to the question directly.

[03:14] <Dr_Willis> try -------->  k3b
[03:14] <___gn0m3___> where can i get it from
[03:14] <Dr_Willis> install it
[03:14] <Dr_Willis> !apt-get
[03:14] <ubotu> it has been said that apt-get is http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/apt-howto.en.txt (in depth) and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptGetHowto
[03:15] <___gn0m3___> dr_willis: i mean like a link
[03:15] <Dr_Willis> ___gn0m3___,  learn to use apt-get
[03:15] <amphi> pilgrim: in console, echo 'keycode  97 = Delete' | loadkeys will make right control behave like backspace
[03:15] <Dr_Willis> ___gn0m3___,  you dont go download.install stuff. you apt-get install stuff
[03:15] <___gn0m3___> o
[03:16] <Dr_Willis> whichis WHY i posted that link for ya

[03:16] <bimberi> ___gn0m3___: nautilus (the file manager) will burn data dvds (Go -> CD/DVD Creator  in the nautilus menu)
[03:16] <MrPockets> can i get a c++ compiler in Ubuntu?
[03:16] <Dr_Willis> !b-e
[03:16] <ubotu> No make ? You need build-essential or if you get errors saying gcc cannot create executables, or that you can't find header files like stdio.h, you need to do a    sudo apt-get install build-essential.
[03:16] <bimberi> MrPockets: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[03:16] <___gn0m3___> thx
[03:17] <MrPockets> thanks
[03:17] <MrPockets> bimberi, telling me to insert a disk and press enter?
[03:19] <bimberi> MrPockets: if you don't have the CD around you can disable it in /etc/apt/sources.list (or via Settings -> Repositories in Synaptic)
[03:19] <kbrooks> ubotu: b-e =~ s/No make ? You need build-essential/
[03:19] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, kbrooks
[03:19] <kbrooks> ubotu: b-e =~ s/No make ? You need build-essential//
[03:19] <ubotu> OK, kbrooks
[03:19] <MrPockets> bimberi, this will make it install from the repositorys then?
[03:20] <bimberi> MrPockets: yep
[03:20] <Tallia1Kubuntu> please..... somebody can help me? i can't remove a package because its postremove script return with an error.. is there a way to force the uninstall?
[03:20] <NeverDream> hi, all
[03:20] <kbrooks> ubotu: b-e =~ s/like stdio.h,/like stdio.h, or get "make: command not found, then/
[03:20] <ubotu> kbrooks: OK

[03:21] <Tallia1Kubuntu> cornernote_: apt-get remove?
[03:21] <bimberi> cornernote_: sudo apt-get remove package
[03:21] <cornernote_> i tried apt-get remove PACKAGE  but it seems to leave crap on the filesystem
[03:21] <kbrooks> echos!
[03:21] <Tallia1Kubuntu> how do i force a remove with apt-get?
[03:21] <_jason> cornernote_: apt-get remove --purge
[03:21] <bimberi> cornernote_: sudo apt-get remove --purge package
[03:21] <jramsey> cornernote_, define "crap"
[03:21] <kbrooks> echoes again
[03:21] <___gn0m3___> i really can get this apt get stuf
[03:21] <cornernote_> lol - crap = stuff to do with the removed package
[03:21] <NeverDream> I just installed an nVidia PCI card and whenever I try to boot up Ubuntu (breezy), it gets to the "starting hotplug" and freezes there. I tried running in recovery mode and I got a kernel panic. Can anyone help me with this?
[03:21] <kbrooks> jramsey: um. he doesnt have to. :P
[03:21] <Tallia1Kubuntu> how do i force a remove with apt-get?
[03:21] <doms> is zope is an easy to use
[03:22] <___gn0m3___> dr_willis: can u just tell me the comman
[03:22] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: can't?
[03:22] <cornernote_> i have already removed it.. so now i need to add it again then purge remove it ?
[03:22] <MrPockets> bimberi, any other ways i can get a compiler
[03:22] <___gn0m3___> for a dvd burner
[03:22] <vladuz976> hi i lost the gpg keys generated on an old hard drive, the public key is on a keyserver though. i can import that key, but how do i go about the secret key that's lost?
[03:22] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: try...sudo apt-get -f install
[03:22] <bimberi> MrPockets: that's the best way - what problems are you having?
[03:22] <amphi> pilgrim: you still here?
[03:22] <kbrooks> MrPockets: yes, bad ways
[03:22] <pilgrim> amphi, yeah...
[03:22] <kbrooks> "unbest" ways
[03:22] <MrPockets> it asks for the disk,
[03:22] <___gn0m3___> kbrooks: know of any good dvd burners
[03:22] <Tallia1Kubuntu> lutra: package already in the newest verison
[03:22] <MrPockets> i did the /atc command for the sources.list and is sayd premission denyed
[03:23] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: otherwise if apt-get doesn't work try aptitude...sudo aptitude remove --purge <package>
[03:23] <pilgrim> amphi, trying to read the man pages (for loadkeys)
[03:23] <lutra> aptitude is smarter than apt-get
[03:23] <amphi> pilgrim: for X, do xmodmap -e "keycode 109 = BackSpace"
[03:23] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: try that aptitude command
[03:23] <___gn0m3___> anybody know any good dvd burners
[03:23] <NeverDream> can I bypass hotplug?
[03:23] <amphi> pilgrim: you can use xev to check that Control_R is keycode 109
[03:23] <pilgrim> amphi, I'm on a dell laptop. Does that still apply?
[03:23] <bimberi> MrPockets: 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list' and comment out the deb-cdrom line.  Then "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[03:24] <Dr_Willis> ___gn0m3___,  you mean drives.. or programs
[03:24] <___gn0m3___> anybody at all?
[03:24] <___gn0m3___> yes
[03:24] <Tallia1Kubuntu> lutra: same thing
[03:24] <___gn0m3___> programs
[03:24] <Dr_Willis> k3b for the 1000th time
[03:24] <Dr_Willis> :P
[03:24] <MrPockets> comment out?
[03:24] <Tallia1Kubuntu> lutra: error and then recover
[03:24] <Caminomaster> Hello. Please help me: Xserver trouble
[03:24] <amphi> pilgrim: this is on a stinkpad, FWIW - run xev from a term, and hit right ctrl, to see what the keycode is
[03:24] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: sudo aptitude remove --purge <package> doesn't work?
[03:24] <___gn0m3___> dr_willis: can u tell me what to type in terminal
[03:24] <bimberi> MrPockets: put a # at the start of the line (like many other lines in that file)
[03:24] <Tallia1Kubuntu> lutra: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/Ypv9Ck16.html
[03:24] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: hrm..i don't then
[03:24] <pilgrim> amphi, holly sh*t! That xev program is AWESOME!
[03:24] <ppp> i have broken xorg installation and try to unistall/reinstall it. However, when typing dpkg --purge xserver-xorg i'm getting: "dexconf not found". I was said that dexconf is in xserver-xorg-core wich can't be installed because dependencies. so... what should i do?
[03:25] <___gn0m3___> dr_willis: im in a hurry and dont have time to read that stuff
[03:25] <Dr_Willis> ___gn0m3___,  you aint egven bothered to read the basics of the apt-get installer have ya...
[03:25] <Dr_Willis> fire up synaptic and search for k3b
[03:25] <pilgrim> amphi, it's key 109 (right ctrl)
[03:25] <___gn0m3___> dr_willis: i need to burn sumthing for my aunt
[03:25] <amphi> pilgrim: heh - showkey is the console equiv
[03:25] <Dr_Willis> or use that gnome burner tool that someone mentioned. it should allready bee installed.
[03:25] <___gn0m3___> dr_willis: shes leaving in like 5 minutes
[03:25] <MrPockets> looks like that mighta done it
[03:25] <Caminomaster> I tried to configure my mouse with xorg.conf... then xserver failed
[03:25] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: sudo aptitude remove --purge mldonkey-server
[03:25] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: uh, um
[03:25] <amphi> pilgrim: so that command I gace you will work
[03:25] <MrPockets> thanks guys
[03:25] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: use serpentine not k3b
[03:25] <pilgrim> amphi, yeah but this could be used to develop gtk apps!!!:))))
[03:26] <Tallia1Kubuntu> lutra: that was the output of that command
[03:26] <MrPockets> nope, couldnt stat source pachage list
[03:26] <amphi> pilgrim: if it does, stick the command in ~/.xsession
[03:26] <___gn0m3___> where can i get serpentine
[03:26] <___gn0m3___> im in a big hurry
[03:26] <amphi> pilgrim: gtk uses its own keysyms I believe ;)
[03:26] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: are u on dapper
[03:26] <___gn0m3___> whats that
[03:26] <NeverDream> can someone please help me?
[03:26] <cornernote_> i did a apt-get remove --purge package and it did nothing more than remove
[03:26] <___gn0m3___> :)
[03:26] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: i don't know then...i'm sorry...you could try 'sudo dpkg remove mldonkey-server'
[03:26] <NickGarvey> NeverDream: shoot
[03:26] <cornernote_> all the files are still there
[03:26] <pilgrim> amphi, I lovo you!!! That works. :)))
[03:26] <Tallia1Kubuntu> lutra: already did
[03:26] <amphi> cornernote_: what did it fail to do?
[03:26] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___:
[03:26] <kbrooks> !dapper
[03:26] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[03:27] <NickGarvey> kbrooks:
[03:27] <NickGarvey> oh I see heh
[03:27] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: i don't know...
[03:27] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: so i assume you're on breezy
[03:27] <cornernote_> didnt remove /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[03:27] <amphi> pilgrim: now edit /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz so it works in console ;)
[03:27] <cornernote_> and a lot of other stuff
[03:27] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: ok
[03:27] <___gn0m3___> kbrooks: yea
[03:27] <NeverDream> NickGarvey, I just installed an nVidia PCI video card and now hotplug freezes up my boot
[03:27] <Madpilot> greetings, Ubuntubers
[03:27] <pilgrim> amphi, who'll read .xsession? Will it work in GDK login screen?
[03:27] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: try sudo aptitude install dlmonkey-server
[03:27] <NickGarvey> NeverDream: are you looking for a way to stop it from trying to load the card?
[03:27] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: i dunno, use synaptic, hit ctrl+f, and then
[03:27] <amphi> pilgrim: should do
[03:27] <___gn0m3___> k
[03:27] <pilgrim> amphi, will vi edit a .gz file?
[03:27] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: slap on serpentine
[03:27] <NeverDream> NickGarvey, I'm just looking for a way to boot so I can print out my homework :D
[03:27] <NickGarvey> NeverDream: theres this thing called blacklisting or such
[03:28] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: hit enter, mark it, install it
[03:28] <Dr_Willis> pilgrim,  why would ya want to?
[03:28] <NickGarvey> NeverDream: heh, well boot cds are very good for that, but let me find you a page on it
[03:28] <jramsey> so ___gn0m3___ sudo apt-get install serpentine won't install?
[03:28] <lutra> Tallia1Kubuntu: if that doesn't work try 'sudo aptitude -f install'
[03:28] <amphi> pilgrim: actually, it probably won't - you need to put it in the global config for that
[03:28] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: all in 5 minutes
[03:28] <NeverDream> ah, I've got a few livecds
[03:28] <PuMpErNiCkLe> NeverDream: Hitting ctrl + c when it gets to the hotplug stage should skip that and let you boot.
[03:28] <Caminomaster> ___gn0m3___, use k3b
[03:28] <amphi> pilgrim: yeah, vim will edit that file; note that the syntax and codes are different ;)
[03:28] <NeverDream> PuMpErNiCkLe, awesome, thanks :)
[03:28] <kbrooks> Caminomaster: k3b needs kde
[03:28] <Caminomaster> ...
[03:28] <PuMpErNiCkLe> NeverDream: That's a temporary solution, though.
[03:29] <kbrooks> Caminomaster: yet another set of packages to download
[03:29] <NeverDream> yeah, once I get it booted I'll fix it
[03:29] <lutra> kbrooks: not kde but kdelibs
[03:29] <Caminomaster> Help me with xserver, please!
[03:29] <kbrooks> Lutany: irrevelant
[03:29] <pilgrim> amphi, what does thou mean? I should make the line "keycode 109" = to Backspace right?
[03:29] <NeverDream> Caminomaster, what's up?
[03:29] <pilgrim> Dr_Willis, don't want to unzip it.
[03:29] <kbrooks> lutra: er, irrevelant
[03:29] <kbrooks> lutra: FIVE MINUTES
[03:29] <amphi> pilgrim: pilgrim befire you edit boottime.kmap.gz, do "echo 'keycode  97 = Delete' | loadkeys" to make sure that gives the desired behavior
[03:29] <lutra> kbrooks: how?
[03:29] <Dr_Willis> pilgrim,  what do you expect to do with it?
[03:30] <kbrooks> lutra: ...
[03:30] <Caminomaster> I tried to make my serial mouse works, and modified xorg.conf
[03:30] <pilgrim> Dr_Willis, just edit and save
[03:30] <cornernote_> reading man apt-get it seems there is no way to uninstall and clean the installed files
[03:30] <amphi> pilgrim: no, the console keymap file is quite a different beast
[03:30] <Caminomaster> then xserver failed when i log-in
[03:30] <Dr_Willis> pilgrim,  you are eding a compressed file.. it will all be binary stuff.
[03:30] <lutra> cornernote_: are you talking about the dependencies?
[03:30] <NickGarvey> NeverDream: ah ha there the file is
[03:30] <cornernote_> lutra: i just want to undo the install
[03:30] <amphi> Dr_Willis: vim expands it transparently (at least here on debian *cough*)
[03:30] <NeverDream> Caminomaster, try changing the protocol to Auto?
[03:30] <NickGarvey> NeverDream: /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[03:30] <kbrooks> ___gn0m3___: dont install k3b. install serpentine. it requires nothing other than a few small files
[03:30] <Dr_Willis> amphi,  so its uncompressing to a temp file.. then recompressing :P
[03:30] <NeverDream> NickGarvey, thanks :)
[03:31] <amphi> Dr_Willis: no doubt
[03:31] <doms> huh i dont know how to start zope
[03:31] <Dr_Willis> :P
[03:31] <cornernote_> i do apt-get remove apache2 php5 mysql-server and i still have lots of files relating to those
[03:31] <amphi> Dr_Willis: just more needless bloat ;)
[03:31] <jramsey> !zope
[03:31] <ubotu> jramsey: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:31] <pilgrim> `
[03:31] <Caminomaster> NeverDream, i'll try it, but my main problem now is that I set xserver with vesa
[03:31] <lutra> cornernote_: you'll need to use deborphan or debfoster to remove unused dependencies
[03:31] <amphi> Dr_Willis: I gunxipped and gzipped that file many times myself before I discovered that vim needed no assistance
[03:31] <Caminomaster> and get the lowest resolution
[03:32] <amphi> pilgrim: did that command I gave you, work?
[03:32] <pilgrim> amphi, I did that ( echo 'keycode  97 = Delete' | loadkeys )  in a console window. now what?
[03:32] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: did you use dpkg to reconfigure the xserver?
[03:32] <cornernote_> i don think its a dependancy - i remove php5 and apache2 and i still have a php.ini
[03:32] <Caminomaster> I'm in 640 x 480
[03:32] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: I'm sure someone in here knows the command, I don't heh
[03:32] <cornernote_> and i can still start apache
[03:32] <pilgrim> amphi, yeah. In the console only.
[03:32] <pilgrim> (tty1)
[03:32] <Caminomaster> yes, NickGarvey
[03:32] <amphi> pilgrim: ok - and right ctrl is behaving like backspace?
[03:32] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: wait you did use dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 ?
[03:33] <pilgrim> amphi, yeah to demonstr
[03:33] <pilgrim> (see it deleted letters!)
[03:33] <pilgrim> :D
[03:33] <kbrooks> NickGarvey: xfree86 is removed
[03:33] <lutra> -xorg
[03:33] <kbrooks> NickGarvey: since hoary
[03:33] <NickGarvey> kbrooks: ah, okie dokie
[03:33] <NickGarvey> not using ubuntu
[03:33] <NickGarvey> google ;)
[03:33] <Spoony> hello folks, i am trying to get MythTV working under ubuntu, i also have the DVICO FusionHDTV card and am having trouble installing the DVICO driver, has anyone used the DVICO-Build.sh before?
[03:33] <amphi> pilgrim: cool; so edit /etc/boottime.kmap.gz and change the line "keycode  97 = Control" to "keycode  97 = Delete"
[03:33] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, explainme more, please...
[03:34] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: what worked on gentoo with me.. was I just moved xorg.conf to xorg.conf.1, so it would use all defaults
[03:34] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: mind you... I was using fluxbox and twm.. so I have no idea
[03:34] <pilgrim> amphi, just do clarify. vim will do it right (it can read it)
[03:34] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: same issue though, my ati driver totalllly messed up on me ;)
[03:35] <pilgrim> amphi, do the writing that is
[03:35] <SpookyET> Hi
[03:35] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: try this "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[03:35] <amphi> pilgrim: yes
[03:35] <SpookyET> Can anyone show me linux exclusive software?
[03:35] <pilgrim> amphi, oh, there is not /etc/boottime.kmap.gz.
[03:35] <amphi> pilgrim: and gzip it up for you again
[03:35] <capiCrimm> anyone have any idea how to force a resolution with xorg
[03:35] <cornernote_> how come i can do "apt-get remove apache2" and then i can do "/etc/init.d/apache2 start" ?
[03:35] <xknight> hey
[03:35] <amphi> pilgrim: /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz, sorry
[03:35] <cornernote_> it seems apt-get remove does nothing ?
[03:36] <capiCrimm> cornernote_, try ''sudo aptitude purge apache2"
[03:36] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, what more i have to do then...
[03:36] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: boot it
[03:36] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, how?
[03:36] <cornernote_> capiCrimm: it did something, but i can still start apache2
[03:36] <amphi> SpookyET: the kernel
[03:37] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: ..turn on the power?
[03:37] <Spoony> im getting file missing errors when trying to use DVICO-Build.sh for my TV Card Driver, i have 2.6.12 kernel does anyone know if that is the correct one?
[03:37] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, first sudo dpkg..., and then what?
[03:37] <bimberi> cornernote_: /etc/init.d/apache2 is part of apache2-common - the dependencies of apache2 aren't uninstalled when you remove it
[03:37] <capiCrimm> cornernote_, can you start apache or does the script just exist?
[03:37] <fiendskull9> !java
[03:37] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[03:38] <capiCrimm> bimberi, hehe, forgot about that... a good reason to use aptitude
[03:38] <pilgrim> amphi, OK. So let try and recap, first, we discovered with xev that ctrl is keycode 109 (in X), right?
[03:38] <cornernote_> capiCrimm - i can start it.. it sayd its running
[03:38] <bimberi> capiCrimm: indeed :)
[03:38] <amphi> pilgrim: yeah
[03:38] <amphi> pilgrim: standard keysym Control_R
[03:38] <cornernote_> ok - doing it with apache2-common seems to work
[03:39] <cornernote_> thanks :)
[03:39] <amphi> pilgrim: s/standard/default
[03:39] <bimberi> cornernote_: yw :)
[03:39] <capiCrimm> bimberi, you know if aptitude search will show packages installed with apt-get?
[03:39] <cornernote_> i still have other files there - eg: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[03:39] <cornernote_> how so i remove those ?
[03:40] <capiCrimm> cornernote_, you have to uninstall php5.
[03:40] <bimberi> capiCrimm: yes it should
[03:40] <pilgrim> amphi, what's this "default keysym Control_R"?
[03:40] <bimberi> cornernote_: there might also be an apache2-utils package hanging around
[03:40] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, I'm in dpkg now... How can I know what driver I need to my board?
[03:41] <capiCrimm> cornernote_, you should try "aptitude search apache" and the same for php5, all results with an i next to them should be purged(unless you need them, of course ;))
[03:41] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: don't use a driver.. you just need to print right?  use some standard one that should work for everyone
[03:41] <amphi> pilgrim: that's what X sets the keysym for keycode 109 to by default
[03:41] <amphi> pilgrim: that command I gave you changes the keysym for that keycode to BackSpace
[03:42] <amphi> pilgrim: the keycode is the 'real' key, the keysym its 'behaviour'
[03:42] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, I'm just here cause I've set the vesa
[03:42] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, but vesa let me in the 640 x 480
[03:42] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: then mv your xorg.conf file to somewhere else
[03:43] <Caminomaster> explainme please
[03:44] <Tallia1Kubuntu> isn't it ridicolous that is had to change a post remove script to have mldonkey-server correctly uninstalled.. only because i create a problem deleting an entry in /etc/rc3.d
[03:44] <blind> I'm really tired of my ubuntu desktop locking up for seemingly no reason
[03:44] <amphi> Tallia1Kubuntu: don't blunder in /etc/rcN.d ;)
[03:44] <Tallia1Kubuntu> blind: what do you mean locking up?
[03:45] <Tallia1Kubuntu> amphi: yeah, i know, i wanted only to not have to uninstall mldonkey server but not having it started...
[03:45] <Tallia1Kubuntu> and with that little change  i messed up everything
[03:45] <blind> I mean it starts going extremely slow, then stops all together. The only thing I can do is hold my power button until the comp shuts off.
[03:45] <amphi> blind: what video card?
[03:45] <blind> on board.
[03:45] <Tallia1Kubuntu> amphi: there should be a FORCE option in dpkg
[03:45] <amphi> Tallia1Kubuntu: it crapped out because there was a symlink missing?
[03:45] <Tallia1Kubuntu> yes
[03:46] <Tallia1Kubuntu> blind: have you checked the ram ?
[03:46] <amphi> Tallia1Kubuntu: that does some overly fragile
[03:46] <doms> how to connect zmysqlda using zope in my control panel i hav a database name enrollment and table profile and password ****
[03:46] <amphi> Tallia1Kubuntu: s/some/seem
[03:46] <Tallia1Kubuntu> amphi: ??
[03:46] <blind> i try to check ps aux, Tallia1Kubuntu but my computer is frozen, so I can't.
[03:46] <Tallia1Kubuntu> what do you mean?
[03:46] <Tallia1Kubuntu> try to use a desktop applet
[03:46] <Tallia1Kubuntu> and look if the ram bar goes too far
[03:47] <holycow> doms, got to a zope support location pls.  this is #ubuntu
[03:47] <amphi> Tallia1Kubuntu: I agree that it shouldn't fail because of a missing symlink - perhaps you should file a bug report if you can reproduce the problem at will
[03:47] <holycow> doms, no one can reqally help you with zope here honestly
[03:47] <Tallia1Kubuntu> amphi: it happend in the past with something else..
[03:47] <Tallia1Kubuntu> i can't remember what..
[03:48] <pilgrim> amphi, I see. Well, thanks alot for your help. I appreciate it. I'll restart it now and see if it still works.
[03:48] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, please explain me about xorg
[03:48] <nomasteryoda> !ubotu tell Caminomaster about xserver
[03:48] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: no idea, did you run the command?  I know little about the gui
[03:49] <nomasteryoda> !ubotu tell Caminomaster about xorg
[03:49] <hyperstream> im having dpkg errors could someone please take a look at: http://pastebin.com/691524
[03:49] <Tallia1Kubuntu> hyperstream: ok
[03:49] <hyperstream> thanks.
[03:50] <amphi> pilgrim: the console one will work, if you edited the keymap file; did you add the xmodmap command to ~/.xsession?
[03:51] <Tallia1Kubuntu> hyperstream: that looks weird
[03:51] <Tallia1Kubuntu> what are you trying to do? what are you using?
[03:51] <amphi> pfft
[03:52] <capiCrimm> where can I get the gtf command?
[03:52] <Pierre> hello
[03:53] <Cooner750> I know this is the Ubuntu channel, but does anyone know of a Linux distro that would run decenly on a AMD K-6 474Mhz, 192MB RAM?
[03:53] <hyperstream> ahh ive recently had to redo my /var partition and i lost a few things here and there i used a data recovery app to get 99% of it back. and have fixed most of it up. i used synaptic to LOCK my gaim2 from been updated which i must have lost and in the recent update it restored the default gaim 1.5 cvs. id rather use gaim 2 but now when i try to dpkg -i the package it gives that error.
[03:53] <Dr_Willis>  Cooner750  ubuntu can
[03:53] <crimsun> capiCrimm: breezy or dapper?
[03:53] <Cooner750> I've tried it before, it was quite slow
[03:53] <nomasteryoda> Cooner750, ubuntu should do fine
[03:53] <Dr_Willis> Cooner750,  use a lighter window manager.
[03:53] <NickGarvey> Cooner750: damn small linux!
[03:53] <capiCrimm> crimsum, dapper
[03:53] <Pierre> any idea why the keyboard can suddenly not work anymore on 5.10? It works nicely until now, and then nothing, system lost it, reboot/shutdown did not help
[03:53] <nomasteryoda> try xubuntu
[03:53] <Dr_Willis> Ive ran Ubuntu on a pent100 system
[03:53] <NickGarvey> Cooner750: feather linux.. all kids of choices!
[03:53] <nomasteryoda> much lighter
[03:54] <Dr_Willis> with icewm/fluxbox ect.
[03:54] <crimsun> capiCrimm: xserver-xorg-core
[03:54] <corey> anyone recommend a good fully  featured  graphical ftp client?
[03:54] <nomasteryoda> damnsmall slax...
[03:54] <hyperstream> any idea's anyone ?
[03:54] <nomasteryoda> gftp
[03:54] <skon> My USB drive always mounts as a read-only fs, but it hasn't always done that, and my other drives don't....how do I change it?
[03:54] <NickGarvey> skon: man mount might help
[03:55] <capiCrimm> crimsum, doh' seems I forgot to run gtf as root, thanks.
[03:55] <Tallia1Kubuntu> capiCrimm: dpkg -S gtf
[03:55] <Pierre> skon, fstab, check that it is user writable (and/or mountable)
[03:55] <nomasteryoda> skon, you may have fat errors on it... i have that from time to time... umount it then fsck
[03:55] <majd> hi, i put an audio cd in my cd player, and ubuntu doesn't pick it up
[03:55] <majd> it's a cd issue cause other cds work
[03:55] <Tallia1Kubuntu> capiCrimm: it is xserver-xorg
[03:55] <majd> any idea how i can get the tracks off of it?
[03:55] <Pierre> damned, that's weird
[03:55] <nomasteryoda> majd, protected cd
[03:56] <majd> nomasteryoda, i doubt it...it's not from US/Europe
[03:56] <nomasteryoda> majd, google the title to see
[03:56] <nomasteryoda> there are ways around it
[03:56] <Cooner750> I'm looking for something that can fit on a 256MB USB Flash drive, and a CD image (I have no floppies at the moment) for USB boot
[03:56] <nomasteryoda> slax is very good Cooner750
[03:57] <amphi> !netinstall
[03:57] <ubotu> I heard netinstall is To install Ubuntu via the net, try here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75372 ... Breezy netboot CD image: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso
[03:57] <skon> thks Pierre, nomasteryoda
[03:57] <nomasteryoda> Cooner750, if you have access to a windows system you can make it your own... with myslax
[03:57] <capiCrimm> does it matter where I put a modeline in xorg.conf?
[03:57] <nomasteryoda> Cooner750, also amphi has good tip of net install
[03:57] <Cooner750> That's what I'll do, but I need a CD image, or put information from a floppy image onto a CD to boot from USB
[03:57] <Dr_Willis> capiCrimm,  yes
[03:58] <nomasteryoda> Cooner750, you can make it as iso then burn to cd
[03:58] <amphi> Cooner750: the netinstall is a small cd image I assume
[03:58] <nomasteryoda> adding the modules you need
[03:58] <capiCrimm> Dr_Willis, where do I need to put it then?
[03:58] <majd> is there a better cs encoder than sound juicer?
[03:58] <Pierre> nobody has this problem before? loosing the keyoard in the middle of a session and it does not work anymore even after a reboot?
[03:58] <majd> *cd
[03:58] <Cooner750> What should I do? Can I find a .img to .iso converter for windows? Or do I extract the contents of the IMG and make a ISO of that?
[03:58] <Dr_Willis> capiCrimm,  look at the files.. and see.. find some examplkes online.  :P backup your original also
[03:59] <amphi> Cooner750: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso looks like an iso image...
[04:00] <Cooner750> I'm looking for something to boot the computer from USB, like those Floppy images, but I dont have any floppies, just CDs
[04:00] <Cooner750> This laptop does not support USB boot from the BIOS
[04:01] <Cooner750> Does MySlax Creator work with Popcorn editon?
[04:01] <Cooner750> I'm going to use it since it's light
[04:01] <Pierre> Cooner750, google for "create boot cd from floppies", and use one of this small distro which allows you to use the usb key as drive (again google, none in mind)
[04:01] <Cooner750> My USB flash drive looks like it's been around the world. I lost it for a while and had no clue where it was for about 3 months. Found it in the yard a few days ago
[04:02] <Android_D> has anyone here installed ffmpeg before?
[04:02] <Pierre> any boot option to debug this keyboard problem?
[04:02] <Cooner750> the usb connector is bent, the plastic is scraped

[04:09] <B_166-ER-X> ah
[04:09] <dli> B_166-ER-X, I usually do, "sudo apt-get install kernel-package", I think it will install build-essential also

[04:10] <B_166-ER-X> ok i try with this
[04:10] <r0xoR> B_166-ER-X, are you trying to recompile your kernel?

[04:14] <doms> huh
[04:14] <B_166-ER-X> uh?
[04:15] <Caminomaster> : ) I'm back in my resolution! : )
[04:15] <dli> B_166-ER-X, kernel-package solved your problem?
[04:15] <Caminomaster> But I don't understand why i see the screen like lined...
[04:16] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, thanks
[04:16] <trappist> when I went to amd64, suddenly my cd/dvd drive doesn't show up anywhere.  it's recognized in the bios, but /dev/hdc doesn't exist and the drive doesn't appear in lshw.  any ideas why?
[04:16] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, I don't understand why I see all in lines now...
[04:17] <nyc-h0st> anyone good with mail servers?
[04:17] <B_166-ER-X> dli, i dont wantto built my kernel
[04:17] <B_166-ER-X> build
[04:17] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: in what lines? what?
[04:17] <nyc-h0st> if i have sendmail running and i add a domain to the relay table do i have to enable anything else in order for users from that domain to send mail through that machine from the outside that is...?
[04:18] <trappist> nyc-h0st: you might try asking in #sendmail
[04:18] <B_166-ER-X> dang
[04:18] <billytwowilly> hi, how do I tell X I want to use kdm instead of gdm?
[04:18] <nyc-h0st> thanks trappist
[04:19] <trappist> billytwowilly: put "/usr/bin/kdm" in /etc/X11/default-display-manager
[04:20] <rodrigo> hello! I just connected a 300G maxtor SATA drive to my kubuntu box. But I don't see any /dev/sd* so I'm not sure how to partition-format-mount it. Help!
[04:20] <trappist> billytwowilly: I think I remember you from #mandrake, way back in the day
[04:20] <Steff_breezy> Hi, can I somehow change the icon of the trashcan without changing the icon theme?
[04:20] <billytwowilly> trappist, I did indeed use mandrake before it started sucking...
[04:20] <billytwowilly> trappist, and I think I remember you too. You used to be an op right?
[04:20] <trappist> yeah
[04:21] <billytwowilly> are you an op here now?
[04:21] <trappist> nah
[04:21] <billytwowilly> k, good, I don't want the "we'll cuss you out for using one small swear word" attitude that permeated #mandrake here;0
[04:22] <billytwowilly> other than that #mandrake was a good place to chill though...
[04:22] <billytwowilly> are you still a mandrake user?
[04:22] <trappist> I still have one box that I haven't gotten around to putting ubuntu on, yeah
[04:23] <Steff_breezy> how can I transform a png to a svg?
[04:23] <trappist> Steff_breezy: I don't think that's possible.  could be wrong.
[04:23] <OmniColos> you might trace it
[04:24] <OmniColos> it could be easy or not even worth the effort depending on the image
[04:24] <Android_D> has anyone here installed ffmpeg before?
[04:24] <kev> anyone played with xgl or aiglx?
[04:24] <prashant> hi
[04:24] <prashant> how can we load yahoo messanger
[04:25] <Steff_breezy> trappist, hmm, thats a shame. i have to give a png trashcan to a svg icon theme
[04:25] <dli> prashant, yes, try, gaim or kopete
[04:25] <dli> prashant, "sudo apt-get install gaim kopete"
[04:25] <Steff_breezy> my latest screenshot: http://img135.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bildschirmfoto29xr.jpg
[04:26] <Steff_breezy> click on the pic , its scaled down
[04:26] <ubuntu> hi, could i get access to hda1 form a ubuntu live cd?
[04:27] <dli> Ubugtu, mount it, for example, "mkdir /mnt/ubuntu1 ; mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubuntu1"
[04:27] <ubuntu> ok let me try
[04:28] <dli> ubuntu, of course, you can use any folder, or existing ones (but not mounted yet)
[04:28] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, I returned...
[04:28] <prashant> hi dli
[04:28] <prashant> how can we do that
[04:28] <prashant> i m new in linux
[04:28] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: yes I don't understand whats not working
[04:29] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, I mean that my screen seems like a mesh
[04:29] <dli> prashant, you can also try to menu, "System" -> Package Manager (or similar name)
[04:29] <Soyko> anyone have a Mac G5?
[04:29] <dli> prashant, read about options there, search for package gaim, kopete
[04:29] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, No, is working now at the best resolution
[04:29] <slaterock> SOMEONE HELP ME GET FGLRX WORKING!
[04:30] <prashant> ok
[04:30] <dli> slaterock, follow the ubuntu ati wiki?
[04:30] <ubuntu> i have  aprobl/devem with windows, cant load, cant restore, cant recovery and the only solution is format and reinstall, then im running in a ubuntu live cd, i want save some files before format
[04:30] <slaterock> i've done it a few times
[04:30] <slaterock> and can't get it to work
[04:30] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: mesh..?
[04:30] <prashant> I have dump of yahoo messanger
[04:30] <r0xoR> ok i'm trying to install the "experience" theme... anyone familiar with that?
[04:30] <prashant> i want install it
[04:30] <dli> prashant, you can try either GUI (graphic user interface), or cli (command line interface), up to you
[04:30] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, how can I explain... :P
[04:30] <r0xoR> i had to compile the engine, i did ./configure && make && make install after installing the gtk-2.0 dev libs
[04:30] <r0xoR> and it compiled and installed
[04:31] <Steff_breezy> I meant my latest desktop: http://img135.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bildschirmfoto29xr.jpg
[04:31] <prashant> how can do it
[04:31] <dli> prashant, read about some docs about ubuntu packages
[04:31] <prashant> i read it
[04:31] <r0xoR> but the actual theme, when i drag'n'drop to the theme browser says that the theme was installed correctly but when i click the theme it goes to an ugly GTK default
[04:31] <Selophane> anyone here suffer from complete system freeze as soon as Xorg starts??
[04:31] <prashant> but not understand
[04:31] <r0xoR> anyone have any ideas?
[04:31] <odyssey> http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#privmsg
[04:31] <Caminomaster> Yes, NickGarvey ... seems like a TV screen in a TV scene
[04:32] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: that good?
[04:32] <dli> prashant, cli is straight forward to me, open a terminal, Applications -> System Tools -> Terminal, and type, "sudo apt-get install gaim"
[04:32] <cornernote_> hello, i want to get my windows PCs to ping my ubuntu box using the hostname... what do i have to do to achieve this ?
[04:32] <dli> prashant, forgive me, gaim should already be installed :( find it in menu, Applications -> Internet -> Gaim
[04:32] <r0xoR> can i install debian packages onto ubuntu?
[04:33] <r0xoR> and is there a difference between a gnome-theme and a gtk-theme?
[04:33] <doms> yes
[04:33] <r0xoR> doms, yes what
[04:33] <prashant> ok
[04:33] <doms> use gpg key
[04:33] <doms> be sure no dependencies
[04:33] <trappist> r0xoR: you will occasionally get away with installing debian packages in ubuntu, but it's not supported and likely to cause harm
[04:34] <r0xoR> trappist, ok cool
[04:34] <trappist> debian and ubuntu are not binary-compatible
[04:34] <r0xoR> trappist, any ideas why this theme isn't working?
[04:34] <Caminomaster> NickGarvey, no, it's a little, little problem
[04:34] <Steff_breezy> I leave now, this is sth that can keep you busy for a while: a wget script, that downloads 1,5 Gig (!) of nice pics, gallery by gallery, absolutely safe, absolutey legal. Download it here: http://rapidshare.de/files/18190680/Steffis_Siterip.sh.html
[04:34] <r0xoR> trappist, do i need to restart xwindows after installing a theme engine?
[04:34] <trappist> r0xoR: sorry, I don't use gnome
[04:34] <r0xoR> k, what do you use?
[04:34] <NickGarvey> Caminomaster: homework printed though right (that was you right?)
[04:34] <ubuntu> dli ... when i tried to create a folder with mkdir i got a msg
[04:34] <trappist> kde
[04:34] <ubuntu> mkdir: cannot create directory `/mnt/ubuntu1': Permission denied
[04:35] <trappist> ubuntu: sudo mkdir /mnt/ubuntu - you don't own /mnt and it's not writable to you
[04:35] <Soyko> ubuntu: run id for me
[04:35] <prashant> thanks
[04:35] <prashant> dli
[04:35] <dli> ubuntu, yeah, you need remember the ubuntu way ( I hate it personally), "sudo mkdir /mnt/ubuntu1"
[04:35] <ubuntu> ok
[04:35] <cornernote_> hello, i want to get my windows PCs to ping my ubuntu box using the hostname... what do i have to do to achieve this ?
[04:35] <ubuntu> let me try
[04:35] <trappist> cornernote_: set up a dns server
[04:36] <cornernote_> trappist: is that the only way ?
[04:36] <cornernote_> i want to run everything on DHCP
[04:36] <trappist> cornernote_: you could put the hostnames on the windows boxes in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
[04:36] <cornernote_> windows doesnt need a DNS server to do this.. it can use WINS or something
[04:36] <cornernote_> is windows better ?  ;)
[04:37] <ubuntu> now what??? this?---> mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubuntu
[04:37] <Caminomaster> Nick : ) I don't understood that phrase :) I'm colombian
[04:37] <cornernote_> trappist: that wont work with DHCP :(
[04:37] <WarOfAttrition> how can I make an app run a startup in XFCE?
[04:37] <trappist> cornernote_: only if you assign addresses statically based on mac addresses
[04:37] <trappist> WarOfAttrition: try asking in #xubuntu
[04:37] <cornernote_> i dont have control over the router
[04:38] <cafuego> cornernote_: .... which is what i told you yesterday ;-)
[04:38] <ubuntu> when i typed "mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubuntu1
[04:38] <cornernote_> heres what i need - to take this box to a business, plug it into their network, turn it on and they can see it on their network
[04:38] <ubuntu> " i got a msg
[04:38] <WarOfAttrition> It's pretty empty in there
[04:38] <cafuego> cornernote_: Does the network not have a set of addresses that aren't mapped by the dhcp server?
[04:38] <cornernote_> i can do that with a windows box.. there must be a way to do it on linux
[04:38] <ubuntu> "mount: only root can do that"
[04:39] <cornernote_> cafuego: i have no idea.. the same system is going into multiple different networks
[04:39] <cornernote_> i have no idea what routers they all have
[04:39] <trappist> cornernote_: windows has a habit of broadcasting a lot of info about itself onto the network/internet.  I personlly don't dig that behavior, but I think samba might help you.
[04:39] <someuser> whats the package that has 'startx'
[04:39] <cafuego> cornernote_: No, it works in widnows because there is *one* authoritative wins server. You can't do it using Linux wtihout an authoritative NS server (or static IPs)
[04:39] <trappist> someuser: xinit I think
[04:39] <cornernote_> thanks trappist - will look at samba
[04:40] <cornernote_> whats the apt package for samba calles ?
[04:40] <cornernote_> *called
[04:40] <cafuego> guess
[04:40] <cornernote_> well its not samba
[04:40] <cafuego> !info samba
[04:40] <cornernote_> and its not samba-server
[04:40] <ubotu> samba: (a LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix), section net, is optional. Version: 3.0.14a-6ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 2332 kB, Installed size: 5928 kB
[04:40] <cafuego> It's samba
[04:40] <r0xoR> would someone help me install a theme on gnome? i want to install the eXperience theme but it seems to be broken... can anyone confirm this?
[04:41] <armitage> hello
[04:41] <cornernote_> oh - it is.. lol .. sorry
[04:41] <armitage> anyone knows how to configure the sound from an asus laptop
[04:41] <dai> Could please anyone tell me how to run windows program on unbuntu
[04:42] <NickGarvey> !tell dai about wine
[04:43] <ubuntu> dli i tried this "mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubuntu1" but i got a msg "mount: only root can do that"
[04:43] <dli> ubuntu, remember the ubuntu way, "sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubuntu1"
[04:43] <ubuntu> ok sorry
[04:43] <ubuntu> ty:)
[04:46] <ubuntu> dli it works ty, but it said i haven't permission
[04:46] <babo> "NEVER list a virtual alias domain name as a mydestination domain!"  ... I'm unsure exactly as to what the difference between these two are ... and yes I've read the man page
[04:46] <Cooner750> How can I get Slax to boot off of the USB stick when the computer does not support BIOS USB boot
[04:46] <Cooner750> ?
[04:46] <dli> ubuntu, open a terminal, type, "sudo -i", and you can cd to it
[04:46] <NickGarvey> Cooner750: floppy?
[04:47] <ubuntu> ty let me try
[04:47] <Cooner750> I dont have any floppies at the moment, but I can convert floppy images to cd images, so that would work if someone could find a floppy image for me
[04:48] <Cooner750> I tried using a DSL floppy usb boot image, it loaded and everything but it searches  for Knoppix-based distros, so...
[04:48] <byteshack> is it possible to install zope < 3 in dapper?
[04:48] <ubuntu> dli it doesnt work
[04:48] <NickGarvey> Cooner750: smb, smart boot manager
[04:48] <xnull> noob question:  I've not done much file encryption.  I want to encrypt a .tar.gz backup, what's a good way of doing so?
[04:49] <bimberi> byteshack: dapper has zope2.7 and zope2.8 packages
[04:49] <baconbacon> xnull, pgp maybe
[04:49] <Caminomaster> Thanks 2 all
[04:49] <dli> ubuntu, is it mounted? never say "it doesn't work", be more specific
[04:49] <ubuntu> yes it is mounted
[04:50] <Caminomaster> I'll restart now...
[04:51] <ubuntu> when i try to open the folder "ubuntu1" an error is displayed "error displaying folder, the folder contents could not be displayed....
[04:51] <slaterock> does anyone know how to fix XLib: extension "xfree86-DRI" missing on display
[04:51] <Cooner750> NickGarvey: Does Smart Boot Manager work with USB drives?
[04:51] <byteshack> bimberi: yes, it does
[04:52] <ubuntu> "you dont have permission necessesary to view the contents of ubuntu1"
[04:52] <byteshack> bimberi: but the bug tracking system says that they are not istallable.  Missing required dependency
[04:52] <di> hi
[04:52] <dli> ubuntu, I suggested you to open a terminal, "sudo -i", and access it in the terminal
[04:52] <dli> di: hi
[04:52] <ubuntu> i did it
[04:52] <ubuntu> dli i did it
[04:52] <di> does anyone here know how to install impress templates?
[04:52] <fyrfaktry> has anyone had success using a Dell 24" widescreen LCD with Ubuntu running at 1920x1200?
[04:52] <dli> ubuntu, "ls /mnt/ubuntu1"
[04:53] <ubuntu> ok
[04:53] <di> copying them into the templates dir doesn't  work
[04:53] <blind> 1920*1200 holy jesus.
[04:53] <fyrfaktry> yeah it rox :)
[04:53] <ubuntu> it works dli ty
[04:53] <blind> i would have so much space.
[04:53] <NickGarvey> Cooner750: thought so but not sure, google I'd say
[04:54] <ubuntu_> hello word

[05:00] <PuMpErNiCkLe> cliche: this isn't vim
[05:00] <dli> ubuntu, oh, cp, mv, and rm
[05:00] <cliche> :)
[05:01] <bimberi> byteshack: looks like the issue is with python2.3-xml.  You could try installing python2.3, then getting breezy's python2.3-xml via http://packages.ubuntu.com, then installing zope2.x
[05:01] <ubuntu> ty but i dont know nothing about linux let me search those in google
[05:01] <cliche> bbl
[05:01] <ubuntu> i only want save some files
[05:02] <byteshack> bimberi: I'm not a ubuntu jedi-master quite yet, and I'm not sure what else I would break in the process
[05:02] <byteshack> bimberi: I'll give it a shot though, I'd really like to try that stuff out
[05:02] <jakobjs> Can anyone help me with xgl on Dapper beta2 ? I've gone through ALL the forums and wiki's and the server still keeps crashing on startup with NO error messages in the X logs :(
[05:02] <baconbacon> ubuntu man <command> in console to learn about a command
[05:02] <bimberi> byteshack: yes a certain amount of 'force' is required :P
[05:02] <Utopiate> Could someone help me remember the command to install a local .deb package from a terminal session?
[05:02] <NickGarvey> Utopiate: something to do with dpkg
[05:02] <bimberi> !deb
[05:02] <ubotu> To install a .deb file: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb  (but note that the program you want might be installable using !apt from the !repos)
[05:02] <NickGarvey> Utopiate: man file for that should do it, probaly -i or something
[05:03] <NickGarvey> probably*
[05:03] <NickGarvey> and yeah there we go
[05:03] <ubuntu> ty baconbacon
[05:03] <slaterock> anyone here using an ati 9000 igp card?
[05:03] <dli> ubuntu, for example, what do you want to do specifically
[05:03] <PuMpErNiCkLe> jakobjs: Dapper-specific support is generally in #ubuntu+1
[05:03] <byteshack> will python 2.4 and 2.3 live happly together?
[05:03] <baconbacon> remember the man pages, before google, and "info <topic>" also
[05:04] <PuMpErNiCkLe> jakobjs: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=148351 <--- Have you seen this page, though?
[05:05] <alekz> how can i deny ping access to my server ?
[05:05] <dli> alekz, I think psad can disable it for you, try "sudo apt-get install psad"
[05:06] <alekz> thanks dli
[05:06] <ubuntu> how can i get out form the manual?
[05:06] <dli> ubuntu, q

[05:07] <Utopiate> thanks!
[05:07] <Utopiate> worked like a charm!
[05:09] <ubuntu> dli i want burn files form the folder documents and settings to cd
[05:09] <bimberi> byteshack: yes they will
[05:10] <dli> ubuntu, you want to burn files in /mnt/ubuntu1 ?
[05:10] <ubuntu> i want to burn those files in a cd
[05:10] <bimberi> byteshack: i've had a look at that bug - my kludgy workaround would only be good for 'having a look'.  Certainly not for any sort of production system (i'm sure this is obvious to you anyway but still) :)
[05:10] <dli> ubuntu, why not boot hdd instead of livecd?
[05:10] <ubuntu> i cant access to windows, now im in a ubuntu live cd and i want to save those files
[05:11] <dli> ubuntu, not many tools available in livecd
[05:11] <ubuntu> :(
[05:12] <ubuntu> does it mean that i need set up ubuntu in my hd?
[05:12] <dli> ubuntu, I don't know what's available on a livecd
[05:13] <byteshack> bimberi: sounding like a medical profesional :) I wont take you to court, I promise :)
[05:13] <bimberi> byteshack: lol!
[05:14] <ubuntu> ok, look, i have an idea, first i dont know why i have this problem with winxp but the only solution is format or connect the HD to another computer... i cant do that now...
[05:14] <byteshack> bimberi: I'm downloading breezy's python2.3-xml... hope it works
[05:15] <ubuntu> the idea is, if i delete some files in windows, maybe i could reinstall de OS
[05:15] <dli> ubuntu, can you copy those files to other computer via net?
[05:15] <ubuntu> no in this moment
[05:15] <guy> hey , whats the dpkg package for macromedia flash?
[05:16] <dli> ubuntu, I'm not familiar with the livecd environment, try to ask others, you may be able to burn cd in livecd
[05:16] <ubuntu> ty fir all ur help dli :)
[05:16] <guy> anyone?
[05:17] <guy> anyone know the apt-get for macromedia flash?
[05:17] <bimberi> !flash
[05:17] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:17] <slaterock> flash-player
[05:17] <bimberi> guy: ^^^^^
[05:17] <slaterock> maybe?
[05:17] <Falstius> flash-nonfree ..you could just apt-cache search flash
[05:17] <byteshack> ahh... feel like to total noob... where can I actually get the breezy package, instead of just a webpage with the package info? (ie: packages.ubuntu.com)
[05:19] <bimberi> byteshack: click on "i386" (or whatever) in the Download section of http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/python/python2.3-xml
[05:19] <byteshack> what's the diff between universe and multiverse? and do these exists in dapper?
[05:19] <bimberi> !components
[05:19] <ubotu> The rationale behind the different components of the ubuntu repositories (main, restricted, universe, multiverse) is described at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components
[05:19] <bimberi> byteshack: yes, they're in dapper
[05:20] <byteshack> gotcha, that didn't look like a link
[05:20] <Falstius> anyone know how I get ride of the distortion lines when I output to the TV?  (just an old fashioned TV on composite output)
[05:20] <byteshack> I was searching the wiki for differences between those universes, but I could not find good explanations
[05:20] <guy> hmm I can't install mplayer-k7?
[05:20] <guy> whats up?
[05:21] <bimberi> byteshack: yes agreed, those links are a bit obscure on the page
[05:21] <byteshack> guy: dapper or breezy?
[05:21] <byteshack> bimberi: thanks
[05:21] <slaterock> come on, anyone know how to use the radeon driver module
[05:21] <guy> breezy
[05:21] <dli> guy, I think the mplayhq.hu recommends building mplayer from source on your computer
[05:22] <guy> breezy,kubuntu
[05:22] <bimberi> !info mplayer-k7
[05:22] <ubotu> mplayer-k7: (transitional dummy package which can be safely removed), section multiverse/graphics, is extra. Version: 1:1.0-pre6-0.3ubuntu7 (breezy), Packaged size: 54 kB, Installed size: 96 kB
[05:22] <bimberi> guy: it's in multiverse - got that enabled?
[05:22] <guy> what the sources.list line for multiverse?
[05:22] <bimberi> !multiverse
[05:22] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[05:22] <ubuntu> finally can u tell me how can i get in a folder_? -----> /mnt/ubuntu1
[05:22] <guy> i am there
[05:22] <guy> i don't have that manager
[05:22] <guy> I am in kde
[05:23] <Fracture> com
[05:23] <jonguy> help my internet still will not work
[05:23] <byteshack> yes, I figured out how to add them, but was not sure about what they were used for
[05:23] <bimberi> guy: bottom of the page
[05:24] <byteshack> I understand universe is for non sanctified packages, but what's multiverse for?
[05:24] <jonguy> i went and bought a new ethernet card and it worked with slax live
[05:24] <ubuntu> forget it, i did it with "cd"
[05:24] <jonguy> but it still will not work with ubuntu
[05:24] <Madpilot> byteshack, non-free stuff - Acrobat Reader, ATI & NVidia drivers, stuff like that
[05:25] <jonguy> bimberi what page are u refering to
[05:25] <C0n5ci3n53> :D
[05:25] <C0n5ci3n53> Anyone knows how to remove the nforce driver?
[05:26] <C0n5ci3n53> My sound doesn't work now that I've installed it.
[05:26] <jonguy> nm i see there is a (guy) also in here
[05:26] <bimberi> jonguy: :)
[05:26] <jonguy> bimberi do have any idea why my internet is not working?
[05:27] <C0n5ci3n53> No one knows?
[05:27] <jonguy> not i
[05:27] <C0n5ci3n53> Damn.
[05:27] <crimsun> C0n5ci3n53: it comes with an uninstall script iirc.
[05:27] <C0n5ci3n53> It does? Haha, must have overlooked something.
[05:27] <C0n5ci3n53> Actualy, I have no idea how to use that.
[05:28] <jonguy> lol
[05:28] <crimsun> should be mentioned in the README
[05:28] <C0n5ci3n53> k
[05:28] <roxas> Question for anyone.  How do you login as root?
[05:28] <crimsun> !root
[05:28] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[05:28] <C0n5ci3n53> You don't like using sudo?
[05:28] <Madpilot> roxas, you don't, generally
[05:28] <jonguy> crimsun how come my internet works in slax live but not in ubuntu?
[05:29] <crimsun> jonguy: how come your question is so vague?
[05:29] <C0n5ci3n53> jonguy, you tried activating your internet card?
[05:29] <jonguy> yes
[05:29] <C0n5ci3n53> hmm
[05:29] <C0n5ci3n53> weird :D
[05:29] <crimsun> i.e., you need to provide a LOT more debugging info
[05:29] <roxas> Madpilot It asks for trying to find $HOME, and I need to log in as root.
[05:29] <roxas> And it doesn't like the Sudo
[05:30] <guest_3dhifi> hello?
[05:30] <Madpilot> roxas, what are you trying to do, and what's the exact error you get?
[05:30] <roxas> madpilot: I am trying to install Crossover Office
[05:30] <jonguy> well it was'nt working so i got a new card and now it works with slax but with ubuntu it does'nt
[05:31] <jonguy> and when it boots up it takes a long time on the networking part
[05:31] <crimsun> jonguy: are we supposed to guess what card it is? :)
[05:31] <jonguy> lets see hold a sec
[05:31] <Madpilot> roxas, ah - I know nothing about Crossover Office - there is a #crossover channel, though
[05:31] <roxas> Madpilot: I know nothing either.  This is only my third day in doing this.
[05:32] <jonguy> wally world special Network Everywhere Network Card
[05:32] <jonguy> the good stuff
[05:32] <ubuntu> how can i open a *.txt file in the console
[05:32] <Madpilot> roxas, type /join #crossover to get to the Crossover Office channel
[05:32] <crimsun> jonguy: pastebin the output from ``lspci -v''
[05:32] <crimsun> !tell jonguy about pastebin
[05:32] <Madpilot> ubuntu, "nano file.txt"
[05:32] <jonguy> i know about it
[05:32] <roxas> Madpilot: I am there now.
[05:32] <jonguy> somewhat
[05:32] <ubuntu> ty madpilot
[05:33] <intelikey> hey hey hey.   i got this printer that usually works fine.  but for some reason it just flaked out on me.   it wont do anything from the comp.  tests fine from the printer tho  ???
[05:33] <jonguy> but since its on another computer my fingers will need a workout
[05:33] <intelikey> i removed cups*  with -P  and reinstalled it.   set the printer up again ... nothing seems to help.
[05:33] <C0n5ci3n53> Hmm, any idea where the README file for nForce drivers is?
[05:34] <intelikey> somebody good with cups ?
[05:34] <calamari> intelikey: have you tested it on another system?
[05:35] <intelikey> oh and i can echo blah > /dev/usb/lp0   and it prints blah.
[05:35] <intelikey> calamari nothing to test it on.
[05:35] <jonguy> the card is a linksys nc100
[05:35] <jonguy> is there anything in particular because the puter is in another room
[05:36] <crimsun> jonguy: does the interface show up with ``ifconfig''?
[05:36] <jonguy> yes
[05:36] <jonguy> wait hold up
[05:37] <jonguy> i was thinking pppoeconf
[05:37] <intelikey> calamari you got thoughts on this?   or just the one question ?
[05:37] <Android_D> if I am want to direct something to the ffmpeg root folder, is that the folder that contains all the ffmpeg header files?
[05:38] <jonguy> eth0 says the internet adress to be "fe80"
[05:38] <jonguy> and thats not right
[05:39] <crimsun> jonguy: so an ip hasn't been assigned to it. What if you run ``sudo dhclient eth0''?
[05:39] <crimsun> (ipv4, that is)
[05:39] <odyssey> hey guys what is the best dvd player for linux
[05:39] <jonguy> ipv4?
[05:40] <crimsun> jonguy: run the command above
[05:40] <jonguy> ok
[05:40] <psw> whats the difference b/w tightVNC and vino-server?
[05:40] <intelikey> i need to trubble shoot cups.   ubuntu 5.4 system   printer  hp psc750    was working fine.  now it says it's printing but never does anything.    anyone ?
[05:41] <byteshack> nice, got zope2.8 installed on dapper... my.jeddipoints += 1 :)
[05:41] <biovore> intelikey: change the debug level to 5 in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
[05:41] <biovore> and look in /var/log/cups/error_log
[05:42] <jonguy> No DHCPOFFERS recieved
[05:42] <biovore> (make sure you restart cups after changing the conf file
[05:42] <doms> pasbtin site
[05:42] <intelikey> biovore k
[05:44] <C0n5ci3n53> Alright, Ive managed to extract the files from the nforce installer, but the next step states to do "make uninstall" but I get an error doing this: "make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'.  Stop."
[05:44] <cliche> lol
[05:44] <C0n5ci3n53> What is it am I doing wrong?

[05:48] <ablyss> psw, are you vnc'ing to gnome or from gnome?
[05:48] <NightQuest> gah

[05:49] <NightQuest> well this sucks...
[05:49] <psw> ablyss: to gnome
[05:49] <NightQuest> anyone here use a WUSB54GS?
[05:49] <ablyss> psw, well X server has to be running.. you need to ssh to linux and turn on X minimal for vnc
[05:49] <cliche> usb wireless?
[05:49] <NightQuest> yeh
[05:50] <cliche> *sigh*
[05:50] <NightQuest> Linksys
[05:50] <jonguy> i mean the hub and the modem are locked up in a box on the wall
[05:50] <psw> ablyss: can you please tell me how to do that?
[05:50] <ablyss> psw, actually just running vncserver itself should turn on the minimal X server required
[05:50] <sqwishy> Hello, i'm running daper drake beta, i want to try gobby which seems to require libglibmm-2.6 or greater but its not in the package manager. Can i still get it?
[05:51] <ablyss> psw, well from the remote machine telnet to linux and run your xvncserver from prompt
[05:51] <ablyss> ssh* sorry telnet is depreciated
[05:51] <calamari> NightQuest: a google for: WUSB54GS ubuntu turns up a bunch of things.. tried them all?
[05:51] <ergotew> anyone know why my sound would stop working after booting into windows then back again?
[05:52] <ablyss> ergotew: check mute
[05:52] <ergotew> ablyss: tried that :) the alsamixer thing
[05:52] <calamari> NightQuest: for example: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=40299
[05:52] <cliche> hehe
[05:52] <NightQuest> I've tried: WUSB54GS "Invalid Driver!" Ubuntu
[05:52] <jonguy> i was reading on the net is the tulip driver installed with ubuntu
[05:53] <cliche> remomber: alsa is linux only
[05:53] <PORDO> has anyone here been able to compile zphone successfully?
[05:53] <ablyss> ergotew: not sure... shouldn't have a thing related to your booting into windows though
[05:53] <intelikey> biovore i don't see a thing in the log file that looks like an error....
[05:55] <sqwishy> Is it possible to get libglibmm-2.6 in daper?

[05:56] <intelikey> mean anything to anyone in the cups log ?
[05:56] <ablyss> ergotew: use different sound driver
[05:56] <jonguy> crimsun did u loose hope?
[05:56] <ergotew> ablyss: could you elaborate? a different module?  (currently using ca0106 sblive one)
[06:00] <ablyss> ergotew: in the gnome sound properties menu try using a different sound module
[06:01] <starkes> has anyone here successfully installed ATI openGL drivers?

[06:04] <Toma-> hmm ok
[06:05] <ergotew> ablyss: i'm still not totally clear.. in Preferences -> Sound, the dropdown box to choose a card has no entries (!), in Preferences -> Multimedia Systems Selector, Default Sink choices of ALSA, OSS, and ESD all say "Failed to construct pipeline". any thoughts?

[06:06] <cci[RR] us> hi there
[06:07] <cci[RR] us> anyone here
[06:07] <ergotew> hello, yes
[06:07] <cci[RR] us> i would like to know how to config grub to boot into console instead of X
[06:07] <cci[RR] us> i tried passing 3 to the kernel but it didnit work
[06:07] <cci[RR] us> which runlevel doesnt go into X?
[06:08] <mikebot> anyone here use an ipod with ubuntu?
[06:08] <ergotew> ccirrus: checking something, hold on
[06:08] <Caminomaster> Hello again, HaHa
[06:08] <jonguy> i used slax to put linux on my pod
[06:10] <Caminomaster> Thank God I'm going powerful in Linux
[06:10] <Caminomaster> Each day I understand more
[06:10] <cci[RR] us> I was using Gentoo. I just tried Ubuntu
[06:10] <cci[RR] us> it's rather different
[06:11] <ergotew> ccirrus: dirty solution would be to 'mv /etc/rc2.d/S13gdm /etc/rc2.d/s13gdm'
[06:11] <ergotew> dont know clean way
[06:11] <cci[RR] us> hmm... ok i'll search for it. Thanks for the help
[06:11] <jonguy> i cant get the internet to work with ubuntu im thinking about switching distros lol
[06:11] <mikebot> anyone?
[06:11] <hyphenated> the "debian" way is to use update-rc.d I think
[06:11] <mikebot> anyone use an ipod?
[06:12] <Caminomaster> Who knows Xserver and xorg?
[06:13] <hyphenated> mikebot: I boot into windows to update mine. I'm too wimpy to risk all the mp3s already on the ipod :-)
[06:13] <Flannel> anyway, thanks for your time.
[06:13] <Flannel> erm
[06:13] <Flannel> hey guys, I'm having problems moving courier(imap)'s mail folder from ~/Maildir to ~/.maildir, Ive switched the paths in /etc/imapd and -ssl, and reloaded them both with the initd script, anywhere else I need to be looking?  my imap clients still look at the old directory.
[06:13] <hyphenated> mikebot: apparently amaroK (a KDE media player) can handle them fine. don't know about gtkpod
[06:14] <mikebot> hyphenated, i've tried both, can't seem to do anything =\
[06:14] <hyphenated> !ipod
[06:14] <ubotu> info for syncing your iPod is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto
[06:14] <mikebot> if i have downloaded mp3s onto an ext3 partition, can i access that in windows?
[06:14] <mikebot> i've been to that
[06:14] <cci[RR] us> ergotew: >> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=52760
[06:14] <hyphenated> mikebot: yeah, with an ext3 driver for windows. google for one
[06:15] <mikebot> hyphenated, ok, thanks
[06:15] <ergotew> ccirrus: indeed...
[06:16] <mikebot> can banshee not play m4a's?
[06:16] <cci[RR] us> we have to manually delete the .deb files after we add/remove packages?
[06:16] <cci[RR] us> or the system will automatically clear them once the installation is over?
[06:17] <dj-fu> apt-get autoclean
[06:17] <dj-fu> will remove uninstalled packages iirc
[06:17] <dj-fu> man apt-get
[06:17] <cci[RR] us> cool
[06:17] <cci[RR] us> how do i change the password for super user
[06:18] <dj-fu> sudo passwd
[06:18] <dj-fu> root is depreceated for Ubuntu
[06:18] <dj-fu> !sudo
[06:18] <ubotu> I heard sudo is a command that will let users run commands as root. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[06:19] <luisito> hello guys
[06:19] <ergotew> hello
[06:20] <cci[RR] us> i did sudo passwd and it no longer prompts me for passwd
[06:20] <cci[RR] us> screw up!
[06:20] <dj-fu> sudo caches.
[06:20] <dj-fu> `man sudo`.
[06:20] <ergotew> ccirrus: that will happen as long as you use that particular window
[06:21] <dj-fu> incorrect
[06:21] <dj-fu> that will happen as long as the defined cache
[06:21] <cci[RR] us> ubuntu is so different! i relied on "su -" in the past
[06:21] <dj-fu> having a root shell open always occasionally leads to doing stupid things
[06:21] <dj-fu> rm -rf /*, for example.
[06:22] <dj-fu> doing that is not advised to test, btw.
[06:22] <cci[RR] us> thats when the user is careless and is a n00b
[06:22] <dj-fu> correct.
[06:22] <dj-fu> ubuntu caters to first timers very nicely
[06:22] <m0zone> how does one take a screen shot in gnome
[06:22] <cci[RR] us> i see
[06:22] <cci[RR] us> after i used apt-get autoclean
[06:22] <dj-fu> m0zone, gnome-screenshot
[06:22] <dj-fu> or accesories > screenshot
[06:22] <cci[RR] us> there are still lots of sttuff inside
[06:22] <dj-fu> or prses the screenshot button?
[06:22] <ergotew> m0zone: print screen key doesnt work?
[06:23] <m0zone> doesnt seam to
[06:23] <m0zone> thats why i asked hehe
[06:23] <regeya> cci[RR] us: so, um, you mean 'is careless *or* is a n00b', right?
[06:23] <luisito> well guys, I'm trying Xgl and I am very impressed. It is wonderful. It only needs to be perfectioned in some aspects. but the movements are crazy great!
[06:23] <luisito> also I see a better font rendering
[06:23] <m0zone> gnome-screenshot worked tho  many thanks
[06:24] <cci[RR] us> regeya: nope. "and or"
[06:24] <cci[RR] us> XGL rocks.
[06:24] <cci[RR] us> used on Kororaa
[06:24] <cci[RR] us> anyway
[06:24] <cci[RR] us> should var/cache/apt/archies be void of .deb
[06:24] <therunnyman> Let's say I'm going to treat myself to a video card I don't need...what'll I get?
[06:24] <cci[RR] us> im quite hard up on space
[06:24] <dj-fu> geforce 7900gtx 512mb
[06:25] <cci[RR] us> ATi is less linux friendly. get a nvidia
[06:25] <Flannel> therunnyman: nvidia.
[06:25] <TTilus> m0zone: you can have printscreen-button too, just bind it to running gnome-printscreen
[06:25] <therunnyman> six hundred bones...I was thinking something uder 100
[06:25] <therunnyman> er, under
[06:25] <cci[RR] us> dj-fu: should var/cache/apt/archies be void of .deb
[06:25] <cci[RR] us> im quite hard up on space
[06:25] <dj-fu> no
[06:25] <dj-fu> you can go there and rm *.deb, if you want
[06:25] <dj-fu> although I wouldn't recommend it
[06:26] <cci[RR] us> those .deb are those which i have just updated
[06:26] <theBishop> after the most recent round of updates, i don't get sound in firefox anymore
[06:26] <cci[RR] us> i would suppose there are done
[06:26] <theBishop> after the most recent round of updates, i don't get sound in firefox anymore
[06:26] <theBishop> i'm aware of the firefoxrc fix
[06:26] <noiesmo> there should be no problem clearing the apt cache files this can be done with sudo apt-get clean after the packages are installed
[06:26] <theBishop> its not doing it anymore
[06:26] <bit_doidao> HI! how to change the permissions of my partition?
[06:27] <cci[RR] us> fstab
[06:27] <cci[RR] us> udner the column options
[06:27] <bit_doidao> cci[RR] us: /dev/hdb3       /media/hdb3     vfat    defaults        0       0
[06:27] <bit_doidao> put ,users?
[06:27] <bit_doidao> defaults,users
[06:27] <cci[RR] us> rw=read write
[06:27] <cci[RR] us> ro=read only\
[06:28] <cci[RR] us> replace defaults with rw or ro
[06:28] <bit_doidao> so i substitute defaults with rw?
[06:28] <noiesmo> cci[RR] us, heres what you can do http://noiesmo.dnsalias.net/article.php?story=20060425235826649
[06:28] <cci[RR] us> noiesmo: ??
[06:28] <TTilus> bit_doidao: what _are_ the permissions and what do you want them to be?
[06:28] <noiesmo> cci[RR] us, this mounts the partition with user and group permissions
[06:28] <noiesmo> cci[RR] us, its howto
[06:29] <cci[RR] us> im was helping bit_doidao
[06:29] <bit_doidao> TTilus: I want to allow the user fulano to read and write
[06:29] <cci[RR] us> im not having any problems with fstab
[06:29] <TTilus> bit_doidao: and nobody alse?
[06:29] <TTilus> s/alse/else
[06:29] <bit_doidao> noiesmo: im the newbie :)
[06:29] <noiesmo> TTilus, heres what you can do http://noiesmo.dnsalias.net/article.php?story=20060425235826649
[06:29] <noiesmo> aahhhh
[06:29] <bit_doidao> TTilus: yes
[06:29] <regeya> cci[RR] us: so it's not possible for an experienced user to be careless? ;-)  on that note, I'm off to bed.
[06:29] <noiesmo> bit_doidao, heres what you can do http://noiesmo.dnsalias.net/article.php?story=20060425235826649
[06:30] <cci[RR] us> regeya: u have mistakend me
[06:30] <TTilus> bit_doidao: you may want to have uid= and gid= parameters to set the owner and group of partition to that specific user
[06:30] <cci[RR] us> bye... i reboot my system
[06:31] <noiesmo> bit_doidao, TTilus thats what my how to does gid uid
[06:32] <bit_doidao> noiesmo: TTilus: done. now how to remount the partition?
[06:32] <bit_doidao> im actually playing a mp3 from it
[06:33] <dai_> could someone please link me the page explain how to use wine, thanx
[06:34] <ergotew> www.winehq.org , click on documentation
[06:34] <dai_> again
[06:35] <TTilus> bit_doidao: how about mount -o remount /dir/
[06:35] <dai_> there is a more detailed explained how to install and use them just linked to me but i lost it
[06:36] <minerale> in windows I can type <alt> 138 and get an accented e... how can I do that in linux ?
[06:36] <TTilus> bit_doidao: (see man mount or help -> man pages -> admin -> mount)
[06:37] <dai_> could please someone tell me how to run windows program on ubuntu
[06:37] <TTilus> dai_: why would you want to?
[06:37] <dai_> ......
[06:37] <dai_> just for fun, thank you
[06:37] <TTilus> dai_: that said, wine can do something
[06:37] <hyphenated> minerale: for GTK programs, you hold Ctrl+Shift while you type the number. I forget how for KDE programs
[06:38] <dai_> but i can't get wine do what i wanted
[06:38] <Android_D> I am trying to ./configure and when I run it, it looks for openssl/md5.h and can't find it. how do I have it so that it looks in a different folder than the one it is looking in?
[06:38] <TTilus> minerale: you press accent dead-key and then e.  :)
[06:39] <Android_D> would I use -I ?
[06:39] <minerale> ttilus: where do I find accent deadkey?
[06:39] <bit_doidao> TTilus: thank you!
[06:39] <dai_> never mind i found it
[06:40] <minerale> hypheanted: odd, I get characters but they are different... where can I get a listing for those codes?
[06:40] <TTilus> minerale: choose keyboard layout which has  :D
[06:41] <TTilus> minerale: are you trying to produce  or  or what?
[06:42] <bluetoad_>  /msg nickserv link bluetoad c0ff33
[06:43] <dj-fu> pwned
[06:43] <TTilus> bluetoad_: ooops  :D
[06:44] <Varanger> hello
[06:44] <Varanger> How can I format a DVD+RW disc?
[06:44] <dj-fu> dvd+rw-format
[06:44] <ergo2> question: is there a way i can restore my gstreamer / alsa stuff back to the way it was upon installation? it worked great then, and by means unknown i have managed to hose it entirely. perhaps dpkg-reconfigure something?
[06:47] <bit_doidao> how to install the latest thunderbird in my language?
[06:47] <blind> Can I mount an ISO as a CD drive?
[06:47] <bit_doidao> pt-br...
[06:48] <concept10> blind, yes
[06:48] <Varanger> blind: mount file.iso -o loop /mount/here
[06:48] <dj-fu> mm, may have to specify -t iso9660 so it doesn't cry, but yeah.
[06:48] <blind> but it mounts as a HD.. (or the icon is an HD icon) or does that not matter?
[06:49] <dj-fu> it's a virtual hd
[06:49] <crunchyfish> Has anyone had this problem with the Dapper LiveCD? It starts to set up and then repeats this error: "hdc: ide_intr: huh? expected NULL handler on exit" a few times. Then it will finish setting up and as soon as it shows the desktop it will either freeze or reboot
[06:49] <dj-fu> (does not matter)
[06:49] <ergo2> dj-fu: i'm curious who you are, that you seem to know the answer to just about every question
[06:50] <dj-fu> I'm just the man.
[06:50] <ergo2> dj-fu: not to invade your privacy or anything
[06:50] <dj-fu> really, no one special
[06:50] <dj-fu> I've just done alot of things.
[06:51] <dj-fu> and, this is a support channel, I usually try to support ;
[06:51] <starkes> does anyone know how to change the logo that shows up while ubuntu starts up? (before gnome loads)
[06:51] <dj-fu> the usplash?
[06:51] <dj-fu> I think there is a tutorial on the wiki
[06:51] <starkes> if thats what its called
[06:51] <dj-fu> !usplash
[06:51] <ubotu> hmm... usplash is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto
[06:51] <dj-fu> There ya go.
[06:51] <starkes> thanks
[06:52] <kumar> hi
[06:52] <dj-fu> It's pretty tricky, I wouldn't bother if I was you. If you're lookin for a themed kernel loader, try LILO instead of grub, it has some easy to configure theme options iirc
[06:53] <chris___> whats so great about this new dapper version of ubuntu?
[06:53] <eXcentra> starkes: in synpatic, there's some usplash manager. try searching it up.
[06:53] <chris___> :) anyone try dapper?
[06:53] <dj-fu> It's just great. Don't ask question.
[06:53] <dj-fu> I'm on it, righ tnow.
[06:53] <chris___> whats been updated?
[06:53] <dj-fu> Nearly everything.
[06:53] <Madpilot> chris___, everything's been updated
[06:53] <dj-fu> Think linux that works.
[06:53] <kumar> hi chris
[06:53] <chris___> hi kumr
[06:54] <chris___> kumar*
[06:54] <Madpilot> dj-fu, Linux that works *better* - Ubuntu already works ;)
[06:54] <dj-fu> yep, I'll give ya that.
[06:54] <kumar> i have a problem in synaptic
[06:54] <chris___> i am going to wait tho till it gets stable
[06:54] <starkes> is usplash for the boot loader or the stuff that starts after linux boots? basically, i somehow ended up with an edubuntu logo while my linux boots instead of ubuntu
[06:54] <dj-fu> it is stable
[06:54] <starkes> and im trying to undo that
[06:54] <chris___> june it comes out :)
[06:54] <dj-fu> starkes: usplash is the pretty logo while the kernel/init sequence runs, yes
[06:55] <starkes> excellent, i'll check that out then
[06:56] <chris___> can you install quickbooks 2006 in ubuntu? using wine
[06:56] <kumar> no
[06:56] <Mark987> chris___ dapper is still buggy IMHO
[06:56] <chris___> what versions are supported?
[06:56] <Mark987> had several issues so far...
[06:56] <ergo2> appdb.winehq.org has a database of user experiences with various apps
[06:56] <Flannel> well, of course it's still buggy.  It's beta.
[06:56] <kumar> 5.0.4
[06:56] <chris___> thank you mark987
[06:56] <Mark987> Flannel that's my point, sorta
[06:57] <chris___> who do you go to if you find a bug mark987?
[06:57] <Mark987> and annoyances like the installer won't get past DHCP timeouts if you don't run/use DHCP and such
[06:57] <Hobbsee> !+bug
[06:57] <ubotu> bugs are reported to https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs
[06:57] <chris___> how do you inform the devolopers
[06:57] <chris___> i see
[06:57] <Flannel> unfortunately, I'll bet most people underestimate what beta really means, since they see [google item]  beta, and don't see many bugs by the time theyve jumped on the band wagon, .
[06:57] <chris___> :)
[06:57] <Flannel> chris___: launchpad
[06:57] <Mark987> i've had a couple really cryptic errors so far when playing with the repositories (adding stuff)
[06:57] <Flannel> So, anyone familiar with Courier (the mail ... something).
[06:57] <Hobbsee> Mark987: take the line auto eth0 out of your /etc/network/interfaces to stop that...
[06:58] <Mark987> trying easy ubuntu (yeah i know) on it gave me some "fix your packages first" errors and such too
[06:58] <crunchyfish> Every time I try to install using a 5.10 disc (I've tried both 32 bit and 64 bit), it will copy all the files over, restart, and then freeze at between 70% and 80% of the installation process. I've burned the discs several times at varying speeds and done md5 checksums to make sure the isos are good. I'm out of ideas.
[06:58] <chris___> is dapper install going to be binary install still?
[06:58] <Mark987> Hobbsee that's the installer... wouldn't know how to fix it
[06:58] <Mark987> so i got DHCP up for it - just so it installs
[06:59] <Flannel> chris___: huh?
[06:59] <Hobbsee> Mark987: oh....right...ctrl+c usually works for such things, but i've never tried it.  i thought you meant for bootup
[06:59] <chris___> flannel never mind
[06:59] <Mark987> i did try that... somehow that didn't work :/
[06:59] <Mark987> then i got some weird stuff hapenning (too much of a linux n00b to know)
[06:59] <crimsun> expert mode allows you to enter static information.
[07:00] <Mark987> cool, will try that then, thanks crimsun
[07:00] <roaet> Where are the lib's hidden at in ubuntu?
[07:00] <Mark987> i'll have to see what i need to create partitions wise too (don't recall the exact setup, but i hate letting ubuntu have its way with it and hope it does a semi-instelligent setup)
[07:01] <crimsun> roaet: ...hidden? In /lib, /usr/lib, and so forth. Why?
[07:01] <Flannel> Mark987: you can do that in the installer.
[07:01] <roaet> Ah
[07:01] <roaet> good point.
[07:01] <kuja> roaet: /usr/lib, /usr/local/lib, /lib
[07:01] <Mark987> Flannel yeah, just gotta know what to create though...
[07:01] <therunnyman> crunchyfish, how much CD-R or RW media you got laying around?
[07:01] <ubuntu> DLI what command did u say to "jump the permission"? something with "-r"
[07:02] <dli> ubuntu, do you mean change permissions? chmod
[07:02] <noiesmo> crunchyfish, try burning at like 4X
[07:02] <crunchyfish> Yeah, I did that
[07:02] <crunchyfish> Using isorecorder
[07:02] <Mark987> i'm still shocked by the amount of updates though... 194 updates to 6.06 beta 2 - 226MB worth!
[07:02] <dli> crunchyfish, still no luck?
[07:02] <dj-fu> that doesn't sound right. From breezy?
[07:02] <Android_D> how can I install the perl module Date::Manip without connecting to the net?
[07:02] <crunchyfish> therunnyman, I've only got one brand here but I have plenty of it
[07:02] <crimsun> dj-fu: breezy would be more like 700.
[07:02] <dj-fu> thats' what I thought
[07:02] <dli> Mark987, beta releases are updated more often
[07:03] <crunchyfish> dli, still no luck :( I even tried booting the Dapper LiveCD and it crashes as soon as the desktop shows up
[07:03] <Mark987> ah, okie :)
[07:03] <therunnyman> crunchyfish, disable burnproof, or whatever it's called in your software (what are you using, by the way?), and try an 8x burn
[07:03] <crimsun> Mark987: updates are fast & furious.
[07:03] <crunchyfish> I've used Alcohol, Nero, and ISOrecorder
[07:03] <Mark987> try burning with verification too while you're at it...
[07:03] <dli> crunchyfish, can you install gentoo? since you are already familiar to the step by step way of ubuntu
[07:03] <dli> crunchyfish, it's a good way to debug
[07:04] <crunchyfish> dli, I haven't tried that
[07:04] <Mark987> once i got it working nice and well (perhaps in a couple more installs?), then I'll make a permanent copy of the VM disk :)
[07:04] <therunnyman> crunchyfish, okay...yeah, try diabling burnproof...I'll tell you why, if you want to know
[07:04] <dli> crunchyfish, if something wrong with ubuntu installer, it's hard to tell the cause
[07:04] <ubuntu> oh, if u remember... i was triyng to acces to windows partition, and tx to u i mounted the /dev/hda1 in a /mnt/ubuntu1 but i cant access to this folder in a classic window only in the console
[07:05] <dli> crunchyfish, if you have another computer there, just use it to read the gentoo handbook
[07:05] <Mark987> although ubuntu is quite different (from my point of view anyways) from the other distros I tried before (where stuff is mounted and such) so it'll take me a while to figure it out
[07:05] <Flannel> crunchyfish: what you might try is isntalling just the server.  and then installing ubuntu-desktop later.  The install will be shorter, might not have to deal with the problem packages, or whatnot.
[07:05] <crunchyfish> therunnyman, I didn't think isorecorder used burnproof, and the disc i burned using isorecorder still didn't work
[07:05] <dli> ubuntu, okay, close all programs opened /mnt/ubuntu1
[07:05] <crunchyfish> OK dli, I'll look into that
[07:06] <crunchyfish> Ah thanks, Flannel. I'll give that a try
[07:06] <dli> ubuntu, not even terminals cd to there
[07:06] <bit_doidao> how to see if my webcam is suported in ubuntu? when i start ubuntu, the webcam's led turns on... but i coudnt run camorama, because it could detect my webcam :( can anyone help?
[07:06] <ubuntu> close alll and open only /mnt/ubuntu1 ?
[07:06] <estupendocero> Is the syntax used in MSWindows' HOSTS file compatible with /etc/hosts?
[07:07] <blind> i believe so.
[07:07] <dondong> ./ #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:07] <blind> open it up and take a look
[07:07] <therunnyman> crunchyfish, I haven't used isorecorder, so I can't speak to it.  Nero does by default.  Try Nero, and in the burn dialog, turn off burnproof, and remember to select "Burn Image" from the drop-downs
[07:07] <dli> ubuntu, type "id", find your uid and gid
[07:07] <ubuntu> ok
[07:07] <ubuntu> uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
[07:08] <dli> ubuntu, use them in "mount -ouid=####,gid=## /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubuntu1"
[07:08] <bit_doidao> ubuntu this is the root id and gid, try: id youruser
[07:08] <dli> ubuntu, root :(
[07:08] <crunchyfish> ok, will 8x be too fast or should i stick to 4x? and should I maybe try burning to DVD instead of CD? maybe my CDs suck
[07:08] <Mark987> 4x is better
[07:08] <Mark987> and quality media is always better too, although CDs aren't usually an issue
[07:08] <bit_doidao> how to use my webcam? its listed in lsusb..
[07:08] <crunchyfish> i've just updated my firmware and the only recorder i can get to let me do 4x is isorecorder. nero et al force me to use 8x and up
[07:09] <Mark987> I'd burn and verify personally
[07:09] <estupendocero> so nobody knows if mswindows' hosts file is compatible with /etc/hosts?
[07:09] <ubuntu> uid=1000(ubuntu) gid=1000(ubuntu) groups=1000(ubuntu),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),108(lpadmin),111(scanner),114(admin)
[07:09] <Mark987> nero should let you use 4x, just select from the list
[07:09] <Mark987> even dvd decryter burns quite nicely
[07:09] <dli> estupendocero, no point to use it :( make a new one
[07:09] <Quan-Time> morning all ;) i have so sound is q3 / wolfET,. i can play divx / mp3s with XMMS no problem.. any ideas ? i use onboard NF4 (its ac97 i think)
[07:09] <ergo2> estup: yes it is
[07:10] <therunnyman> crunchyfish, 1-12x are "safe" speeds, as they don't invoke burnproof as part of their writing schemes
[07:10] <ubuntu> like this??--> "sudo mount -ouid=####,gid=## /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubuntu1"
[07:10] <noiesmo> estupendocero, dont know about compat but you can enter similiar info in both
[07:10] <crunchyfish> i'll be back after this burn if it doesn't work, thank you all for the suggestions
[07:11] <chris___> anyone running xubuntu?
[07:11] <estupendocero> dli, noiesmo I wanted to use one of the publicly available ad blocking hosts files with like 10,000 entries... don't feel like entering them by hand
[07:11] <therunnyman> burnproof, the technology, is awful, but it sounds great; the laser stops writing, which used to cause buffer underruns.
[07:11] <dli> estupendocero, I will call it stupid to keep 10,000 entries in a hosts file, run a dns server
[07:12] <therunnyman> the thing is, the laser stops writing...bad scene, you can hear the digital artefacts if you burn an audio CD at 32X+
[07:12] <AngryElf> when i use the gui to change my wireless properties from static to dhcp it hangs for a minute or so and then tells me it's dhcp -- but i dont really believe it, how can i find out if it's dhcp or static fromt he command line?
[07:12] <ubuntu> like this??--> "sudo mount -uid=1000,gid=1000 /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubuntu1"
[07:12] <dli> AngryElf, "ps fx -A|grep dhclient"
[07:12] <ubuntu> dli
[07:13] <AngryElf> dli, but i've got eth0 working too
[07:13] <estupendocero> dli, is there a better way to blacklist domains?
[07:13] <AngryElf> my wired connection
[07:13] <dli> ubuntu, do you have some usb-memory stick?
[07:13] <dli> estupendocero, iptables
[07:13] <ubuntu> not here :(
[07:13] <dli> estupendocero, hosts doesn't solve the problem
[07:14] <Mark987> hosts is a bad way around the problem IMHO
[07:14] <Mark987> and if it's just for ads, try adblock ;)
[07:14] <dli> ubuntu, ask others, I don't even run ubuntu myself
[07:15] <ubuntu> ok ty
[07:15] <estupendocero> dli, Mark987, I'll accept that, thanks. I'll figure something else out
[07:15] <estupendocero> thanks

[07:19] <noiesmo> dli, whaaat?
[07:19] <dli> noiesmo, scim, the package
[07:19] <Flannel> kumar: he means "add account" in gaim, not ubuntu.
[07:19] <michael117> How can I similate 5.1 surround sound from normal 2-channel audio by duplicating the audio streams to the front two speakers to play in the back and possibly configure a center channel for the center speaker?
[07:20] <kumar> i am very new to ubuntu
[07:20] <dli> kumar, start gaim :) from menu or, type "gaim&" in a terminal
[07:20] <kumar> so i have no idea about gaim
[07:20] <Madpilot> kumar, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GaimHowto
[07:20] <babo> Does anyone know how I stop named from listening on all available interfaces ... ? It seems to be listening on every IP address in my block ... ? I've checked man named but there wasn't anything useful ... Thanks
[07:20] <dli> kumar, and gaim will ask you to add accounts
[07:21] <Quan-Time> gaim isnt that hard
[07:21] <Quan-Time> using it now

[07:21] <ergo2> babo: did you look at the config files in /etc/?
[07:21] <phate> I'm having an issue with dapper drake. I can't seem to change the resolution of my screen, its stuck at 640x480x16bpp. I'm running a Dell Latitude C600 with 384MB of RAM, ATI Rage Mobility M3, Pentium III (Coppermine) 800Mhz. Any ideas?
[07:22] <Flannel> phate: #ubuntu+1 for dapper things, they're better suited.
[07:22] <Quan-Time> dli, i cant even prenounce that properly
[07:22] <Quan-Time> i might try it
[07:22] <noiesmo> ubotu, tell phate about resolution
[07:22] <htmlgecko> I'm also having trouble configuring my resolution on kubuntu
[07:22] <Quan-Time> i currently use gnome tho
[07:22] <dli> Quan-Time, easier for me, since English is not my language, I don't have to pronounce it
[07:22] <htmlgecko> could anyone lend a hand?
[07:22] <phate> woo, natural language bot. Spiff.
[07:23] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell htmlgecko about fixres
[07:23] <htmlgecko> thanks mad
[07:24] <babo> ergo2: well, yes I looked in it, I'm not sure what I should put in it though. There doesn't seem to be anything obvious ...
[07:24] <Madpilot> htmlgecko, np
[07:24] <Quan-Time> dli, yer thats sorta nice
[07:24] <babo> I have a controls directive in there which instructs rndc to connect to localhost at port 953 ... nothing about listening interfaces though ...
[07:24] <Quan-Time> thin, light and.. yer not too shabby
[07:24] <Quan-Time> i might try it actually
[07:25] <dli> Quan-Time, kopete already has video in it
[07:25] <roboko1> hmm what is the shell command to hibernater?
[07:25] <htmlgecko> shutdown -h?
[07:25] <roaet> How do I get flash 8 installed in ubuntu?
[07:25] <dli> Quan-Time, gaim, you have to wait it after the 2.0 release ( not including)
[07:25] <Quan-Time> it can play videos ? i using vlc currently
[07:25] <Quan-Time> wait, why ?
[07:26] <dli> Quan-Time, gaim-2.0 doesn't support voice-video
[07:26] <Quan-Time> zif i care about voice / video
[07:26] <dli> Quan-Time, for voice and video, you may want to try ekiga, the former gnomemeeting
[07:26] <robokop> htmlgecko: no that is halt or powerdown after shutdown
[07:27] <htmlgecko> quan, if you have an xp machine available, look up iVisit
[07:27] <dli> Quan-Time, however, ubuntu is a distribution which just works, not nice to tweak packages
[07:27] <Quan-Time> nah.. i dont care about video / voice chat.. i just use it to msg mates @ work.. coz they cant have irc (:
[07:27] <calamari> anyone know of a print shop / print master type program?
[07:27] <Quan-Time> im not tweaking packages !
[07:27] <htmlgecko> my bad robokop
[07:27] <Quan-Time> yet
[07:27] <Madpilot> calamari, the GIMP or Inkscape?
[07:28] <Quan-Time> yer.. i want audio in games.. i use onboard NF4 AC97.. and quake3 / wolfET have no audio... XMMS / vlc work fine tho
[07:28] <calamari> Madpilot: not really.. those are more like ms paint.  I'm trying to create cards, banners, signs, etc with clip art etc
[07:28] <Quan-Time> ideas ?
[07:29] <Madpilot> calamari, there's an openclipart project package in Ubuntu's repos, if you need a source of clipart
[07:29] <calamari> Madpilot: just curious: have you used printmaster / print shop?
[07:30] <robokop> hmm what is the shell command to hibernate?
[07:30] <calamari> Madpilot: they are very simple programs.. not many options, easy to use
[07:30] <Madpilot> calamari, I think we had a copy years ago, for banners and such. These days, I'd use Inkscape for that sort of thing
[07:31] <calamari> Madpilot: hehe.. I have used inkscape to make diagrams, but not really for this kind of thing
[07:32] <calamari> Madpilot: for example, if I was making a card, it would know where to print things so that when I folded the card everything was right side up
[07:32] <calamari> Madpilot: I suspect the app doesn't exist for linux
[07:32] <Madpilot> calamari, yeah - I don't know of an app that'll do that...
[07:33] <calamari> Madpilot: thanks for letting me pick your brain :)
[07:33] <Madpilot> calamari, np ;)
[07:33] <robokop> hmm what is the shell command to hibernate?
[07:34] <Quan-Time> is its shutdown -h ?
[07:34] <Quan-Time> thats a total guess
[07:34] <bit_doidao> Quan-Time: shutdown -h halt the system
[07:34] <bit_doidao> Quan-Time: turns it down
[07:35] <htmlgecko> just do an info shutdown
[07:35] <Quan-Time> i said it was a guess.. im trying to help :)
[07:35] <Quan-Time> cheers for the info tho.. good to know
[07:35] <robokop> in the default shutdown command there is no hibernate option
[07:36] <bit_doidao> "shutdown -r now" restarts the system immediatly
[07:37] <robokop> yep but that isn't what i want to do
[07:45] <Quan-Time> so yer.. anyone wanna help me with my audio problem yet ?
[07:46] <dli> !anyone
[07:46] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? </hint>
[07:47] <Quan-Time> ive actually asked like 4 times.. just didnt wanna repeat.. i just want attention :(
[07:48] <Quan-Time> i have no audio in games (quake3 / wolfET) but i have audio in divx / mp3. i use a NF4 chipset with onboard AC97 audio
[07:49] <calamari> Quan-Time: does OpenGL handle audio, or does only DirectX do that?
[07:49] <cliche> ?
[07:49] <calamari> Quan-Time: if it handles audio, perhaps it is broken somehow
[07:49] <Quan-Time> calamari, i dont honestly know
[07:49] <Quan-Time> games run fine..
[07:49] <cliche> do you mean directdraw?
[07:49] <Quan-Time> and the games are navite ports
[07:50] <calamari> cliche: in Windows, DirectXhas both audio/video parts to it.. I am not sure how much opengl copies directx
[07:50] <monsterb> !wine
[07:50] <cliche> .............................
[07:50] <cliche> ogl > dx
[07:50] <Quan-Time> cliche, true :)
[07:51] <crunchyfish> hey, to anyone who was helping me earlier, it looks like i have a working server install. thanks a lot for the suggestions. if anyone could point me in the direction of getting the full desktop from here i'd appreciate it
[07:51] <calamari> cliche: I am not debating that.. just that they are similar in function and might contain similar features (ie. audio)
[07:51] <xknight_> how do you search for wireless routers  ?
[07:51] <xknight_> any one know ?
[07:51] <Quan-Time> BUT from a developers point of view (i know 2) dx is fast.. and thus, when time is important, he will use dx calls instead of opengl.. saynig that, he is an inherently lazy coder
[07:51] <Quan-Time> so will cut corners where avil... thus, dx
[07:52] <crunchyfish> oh nevermind, i found it :) thanks again
[07:52] <Quan-Time> at the cost of some flexibility
[07:52] <cliche> calamari, the SDL?
[07:52] <monsterb> Any one install wine on 64bit?
[07:52] <xknight_> how do you search for wireless routers  near you
[07:52] <calamari> cliche: ahh, I recognize that.. probably what it would use :)
[07:53] <cliche> .............
[07:53] <xknight_> any one ?
[07:53] <IcemanV9> xknight_: iwlist [interface]  scanning
[07:53] <xknight_> ok t.y
[07:53] <calamari> Quan-Time: so there you go.. check out SDL
[07:54] <Quan-Time> SDL ?
[07:54] <cliche> ...
[07:54] <xknight_> IcemanV9:
[07:54] <xknight_> i installed my ndiswrapper drivers
[07:54] <xknight_> but i dont think the card is activated
[07:55] <xknight_> or something
[07:55] <cliche> if you compiled games by yourself, you would need SDL
[07:55] <xknight_> might you be able to help me ?
[07:55] <calamari> Quan-Time: do you have mplayer?  it says you can play thru SDL
[07:55] <IcemanV9> sorry, i'm no expert on ndiswrapper since my wireless card works "out of the box"
[07:56] <Quan-Time> umm... mplayer you asy.. i can check
[07:56] <IcemanV9> *not
[07:56] <monsterb> Im trying to install wine on 64bit...anyone have any luck doing this?
[07:56] <Quan-Time> monsterb, never tried sorry.. try the www.transgaming.com site forums for a guide
[07:56] <cliche> almost, SDL = DX on the linux
[07:56] <Quan-Time> wait.. wine. i was thinkin cedega for a second
[07:57] <Quan-Time> oops
[07:57] <calamari> Quan-Time: if not, install it, and try playing a song and see if it works, then we can go from there
[07:57] <monsterb> no prob ... cedega 32 bit ... plus a fee
[07:57] <cliche> non-free = dead
[07:57] <Quan-Time> calamari, XMMS / VLC play fine.. im watchin a xvid right now
[07:58] <xknight_> http://pastebin.com/691720
[07:58] <calamari> Quan-Time: I understand thta.. mplayer lets you choose the output device, so it can be useful in the trubleshooting
[07:58] <xknight_> would some one mind looking at this
[07:58] <Quan-Time> calamari, sure thing, i understand now.. ill install it
[07:58] <hyperstream> ive just recently had to recover from a corrupted var partition, thanks to a data recovery app i was almost able to get all of it back cept a few things mainly to do with dpkg. i have a issue using dpkg the error is posted here: http://pastebin.com/691718 Could someone take a look please. thanks
[08:00] <cliche> in the linux world, we don't need DX. you can just put it on the xbox
[08:00] <Quan-Time> calamari, have to give me a few mins.. giving me a "depends on libartsc0 but it is not installable" error
[08:00] <cliche> xbox(dx) -> tv card -> done.
[08:01] <cliche> linux/bsd + native ogl = good
[08:01] <calamari> Quan-Time: np.. just use my nick and I'll know you're done :)
[08:01] <cliche> ?
[08:01] <cliche> calamari?
[08:01] <Quan-Time> obviously.. actually, dunno how im gonna install mplayer.. coz like.. synaptic wont do it.. use apt-get ya think ?
[08:02] <calamari> cliche: sorry, did you have a question for me?
[08:02] <cliche> no, does your nick mean something?
[08:02] <dell500> is it possible to connect a SATA drive (300gb) onto the mobo, partition it in ubuntu, then backup x files, then take that SATA drive out, and put it into a SATA->USB enclosure and it will still work?
[08:02] <Quan-Time> heh.. spose i shouldnt be actively WATCHING a divx
[08:02] <calamari> cliche: it means squid (used as food)
[08:03] <calamari> cliche: but what I meant is that if he uses my nick then it flashes on the taskbar
[08:03] <kumar> wine command is not working
[08:03] <cliche> ?
[08:04] <cci> hi
[08:04] <cliche> lo
[08:04] <calamari> Quan-Time: why is it not installable, does it conflict with something ?
[08:04] <cci> i would like to install Ethereal however i use apt-get install ethereal  it could find it
[08:04] <cci> but it's there in the repo: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/net/ethereal
[08:05] <cci> the error message  "E: Couldn't find package ethereal"

[08:05] <Madpilot> cci, you probably need to enable the Universe repo
[08:05] <cci> sorry im new to ubuntu and apt-get
[08:05] <cci> how to do that?
[08:05] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell cci about universe
[08:05] <monsterb> Quan-Time: goto https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/ and download mplayer for your version.  Do a dpkg -i filename .. get everything it depends on too.
[08:05] <IcemanV9> xknight_: what did ifconfig tell you? is eth0 up and running?
[08:06] <cliche> ethereal is a tcp/ip debuger
[08:06] <cci> it is a network analyzer
[08:06] <cliche> mmm
[08:06] <cci> not only TCP/IP
[08:06] <cci> even at the Link Layer
[08:06] <cliche> I know
[08:06] <cci> so it is wrong to say <cliche> ethereal is a tcp/ip debuger

[08:13] <cci> hold on

[08:13] <xknight_> let me run a few comands for you
[08:13] <cci> try iwlist scanning eth0
[08:13] <cci> i can't really remember the exact syntax
[08:14] <IcemanV9> xknight_: iwlist eth0 scanning
[08:14] <morphix> hmm.. is there another way in shell i can config the desired resolutions for xorg?
[08:14] <morphix> apart from editing the conf
[08:14] <xknight_> cci: http://pastebin.com/691732

[08:15] <cci> my syntax is wrong
[08:16] <cci> gmmm
[08:16] <IcemanV9> xknight_: sudo ifconfig eth0 down; sudo dhclient eth0
[08:16] <cci> IcemanV9 i dont think it helps
[08:16] <cci> at the MAC layer it can't even work
[08:16] <cci> thus dhcp wouldnt work
[08:17] <dj-fu> iwlisth ethX scan will show all the AP's near you
[08:17] <dj-fu> -h
[08:17] <IcemanV9> it should try to connect to any avail router
[08:17] <cci> and apparently the scan found no APs
[08:17] <dj-fu> then there are none
[08:18] <cci> which is why no DHCP would work. The card has to associate to an AP first.
[08:18] <eggzeck> ubotu help
[08:18] <cci> i have a question about "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-21-686"
[08:19] <IcemanV9> cci: ur right
[08:19] <cci> this is a suite of moduleS?
[08:19] <cci> IcemanV9:   :)
[08:19] <xknight_> http://pastebin.com/691736
[08:19] <IcemanV9> xknight_: you have wireless router?
[08:19] <xknight_> yes
[08:19] <eggzeck> ubotu tell eggzeck about resolution
[08:19] <xknight_> it works too ;)
[08:19] <Quan-Time> monsterb, im not entirely sure what you mean.. im on the launchpad.net site, and found the mplayer download. theres 3. theres a .dsc / .diff.gz / .tar.gz which should i get and when you said dpkg -i what did you mean by than.. before or after i install a downloaded package ?
[08:20] <cci> is your wireless router hiding SSID broadcast?
[08:20] <cci> if so then u
[08:20] <IcemanV9> something aint right then
[08:20] <cci> need to manually specify the settings
[08:20] <xknight_> no its not
[08:20] <xknight_> its broadcasting
[08:20] <calamari> Quan-Time: you should be able to install it from synaptic.. does it say whats wrong with libartsc0?
[08:21] <Quan-Time> wheres the best place to past 3 lines ?
[08:21] <xknight_> pastebin
[08:21] <Quan-Time> just dont wanna flood anyone
[08:21] <calamari> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:21] <Quan-Time> gotcha
[08:21] <xknight_> cci:  any idea's ?
[08:21] <monsterb> Quan-Time: what version ubuntu are u using? and 32bit or 64bit?
[08:22] <Quan-Time> 32b dapper
[08:22] <cci> no idea
[08:22] <cci> maybe the driver is not working
[08:22] <xknight_> it came off the windows dir
[08:23] <Quan-Time> monsterb, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13183
[08:23] <xknight_> hmm
[08:23] <Quan-Time> and ive fixed the multiverse things
[08:24] <monsterb> Quan-Time: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/i386/mplayer/2:0.99+1.0pre7try2+cvs20060117-0ubuntu6   download the deb - make sure u have everything it depends on too.
[08:25] <dj-fu> why not get it through apt-get? lol
[08:25] <Quan-Time> same error
[08:25] <monsterb> dj-fu: mplayer is not included
[08:25] <dj-fu> I got it off apt-get.
[08:25] <Quan-Time> so yer.. to install this .deb file...
[08:25] <calamari> Quan-Time: what do you get when you try to install just libartsc0
[08:26] <Quan-Time> calamari, install it via synaptic ?
[08:26] <dj-fu> dpkg -i file.deb
[08:26] <calamari> Quan-Time: sure, or apt-get , same thing
[08:26] <monsterb> Quan-Time: dpkg -i filename.deb   after u download it.
[08:26] <calamari> oh, I thought he did that already
[08:27] <calamari> yeah try that package first

[08:27] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[08:27] <rabeldable> anyone know where there is some information about external ide drives connected to a usb port with a usb to ide converter, I'm using breezy
[08:27] <Quan-Time> dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[08:27] <Quan-Time> hmm... interesting
[08:27] <Quan-Time> no video playing currently
[08:27] <calamari> Quan-Time: close synaptic
[08:28] <rabeldable> i'm thinking its the same technology as a usb drive, however, this is a new drive and is not formatted... I need to create a filesystem on it... any ideas?  I can't see the drive in /dev/
[08:28] <Quan-Time> wow.. threw a whole lot of "depends on X.. however; package X is not installed
[08:28] <dj-fu> rabeldable, should just work, mine does
[08:28] <rabeldable> i think it should be /dev/sdb1
[08:29] <rabeldable> I have a usb flash drive that just works...
[08:29] <dj-fu> you should have a /dev/sda or /dev/sdb, depending on where it is - check your dmesg|tail output to find out which
[08:29] <dj-fu> and then fdisk it, create a partition and format it with mkfs.ext3 or w/ever.
[08:29] <Quan-Time> definatly dont have libartsc0 installed.
[08:29] <monsterb> Quan-Time: goto synaptic and start getting everything it depends on.
[08:29] <rabeldable> flash drive as /dev/sdb, however, there is no /dev/sdb with the new external ide/usb drive connected
[08:29] <calamari> Quan-Time: ahh, was it listed?
[08:29] <rabeldable> i even rebooted...
[08:30] <dj-fu> rabeldable, check the output of dmesg|tail
[08:30] <Quan-Time> monsterb, i would, BUT i tried getting libartsc0 but synaptic dont have it listed anywhere
[08:30] <dj-fu> as soon as you plug it in
[08:30] <morphix> "Lame Mp3 encoding Library"
[08:30] <morphix> ?
[08:30] <carthik> morphix ??
[08:30] <dj-fu> morphix, ?
[08:30] <dj-fu> 
[08:30] <morphix> what package would i need for that?
[08:30] <dj-fu> liblame
[08:30] <dj-fu> or just lame
[08:31] <morphix> liblame.
[08:31] <morphix> no such thing
[08:31] <dj-fu> apt-get install lame
[08:31] <dj-fu> Filename: pool/multiverse/l/lame/lame_3.96.1-1_i386.deb
[08:31] <calamari> Quan-Time: something is weird then, because I'm running dapper, and have the dapper version of libartsc0 installed
[08:31] <Quan-Time> WTF ? now i have a "broken" package.
[08:31] <Quan-Time> when i load synaptic
[08:32] <dj-fu> unbreak it ;p
[08:32] <Quan-Time> BRB have idea
[08:34] <monsterb> Quan-Time: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/i386/+search?text=libartsc0    use lauchpad to get the debs not on synaptic...
[08:34] <Quan-Time> so how do i go about finding this broken package ?
[08:34] <calamari> Quan-Time: in Synaptic, click Custom, Broken
[08:35] <Quan-Time> its the only one thats broken
[08:35] <Quan-Time> mpylayer
[08:36] <calamari> Quan-Time: Edit : Fix Broken Packages
[08:36] <morphix> ffs
[08:36] <morphix> i need lame.. and cant find it
[08:36] <Quan-Time> ok mplayer works with divx fine now
[08:36] <Quan-Time> cheers
[08:37] <Quan-Time> now to the game issue
[08:37] <calamari> Quan-Time: okay, so lets try a different output driver with mplayer
[08:37] <dj-fu> morphix, enabled universe and multiverse
[08:37] <morphix> yes
[08:37] <Daskies> How can I force kill the top(active) window?
[08:37] <dj-fu> then lame should be there
[08:37] <Daskies> Hotkey
[08:37] <dj-fu> ran apt-get update?
[08:37] <morphix> yes many times
[08:37] <calamari> Quan-Time: type mplayer -ao help  to see what the options are  (hopefully SDL is listed)
[08:38] <eggzeck> morphix, use: apt-cache search lame
[08:38] <morphix> i have..
[08:38] <morphix> gives heaps of searches.. but i cant see most of the list
[08:38] <dj-fu> and it doesn't show it?
[08:38] <Quan-Time> 91 audio and 204 video codecs
[08:38] <dj-fu> what about apt-cache show lame
[08:38] <morphix> nothing
[08:39] <Quan-Time> and yes, sdl is listed
[08:39] <Daskies> Anyone?
[08:39] <calamari> Quan-Time: okay great.. try mplayer -ao sdl filename...
[08:39] <Quan-Time> *thumbs up*
[08:39] <Quan-Time> worky
[08:40] <calamari> Quan-Time: try also -ao alsa  and another test -ao esd
[08:40] <calamari> if all those work, then I apologize because I haven't helped clarify the problem any
[08:41] <Quan-Time> well they all work
[08:41] <rabeldable> anyone know how to rescan the scsi bus ?
[08:42] <calamari> Quan-Time: well, I don't know what to say then.. sorry :(
[08:43] <Quan-Time> its ok.. ill find out somehow
[08:43] <dj-fu> rabeldable, when you plug the device in, run `dmesg|tail` in a console. pastebin the output
[08:44] <morphix> dj-fu: i accidentally had # commenting out the multiverse repo :/
[08:44] <calamari> Quan-Time: btw, I assume you turned up all the volume controls already
[08:44] <Quan-Time> in the game you mean ? yes
[08:44] <morphix> lame isnt whats it needs :@
[08:45] <calamari> Quan-Time: no in gnome
[08:46] <morphix> qt3-dev-tools install qmake??
[08:46] <Quan-Time> ?
[08:47] <rabeldable> pastebin is a little slow today.... here is the link: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13184
[08:47] <calamari> Quan-Time: right click the speaker icon in the notification area, choose open volume control
[08:47] <rabeldable> thats for dmesg output
[08:47] <dj-fu> apt-file search qmake
[08:48] <dj-fu> rabeldable, sec. readig
[08:48] <dj-fu> nasty, something is dying
[08:49] <rabeldable> here is the messages output:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13185
[08:49] <crunchyfish> i did an ubuntu server install which went fine. then i typed sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop to upgrade and it freezed a few times, but i got it to finish in recovery mode. then i exited it and it restarted and as soon as the gui login screen came up my pc locked up for a few seconds and restarted
[08:49] <dj-fu> and the drive in the usb adapter isn't being detected by the scsi subsystem, see device offlined
[08:49] <crunchyfish> which is pretty similar to what happens when i try to run the dapper livecd
[08:49] <crunchyfish> could this be a videocard issue?
[08:49] <dj-fu> could be acpi/lapic/apic
[08:49] <rabeldable> the device is not formatted... its a new western digital 250GB eide drive connected with a usb converter
[08:50] <rabeldable> there is no label... or fs
[08:50] <calamari> Quan-Time: anyhow, I really doubt volume is the problem since mplayer played okay
[08:50] <dj-fu> rabeldable, that shouldn't be a prob, what kind of USB adapter?
[08:50] <dj-fu> and more importantly, do other drives work in it?
[08:51] <rabeldable> the system is a toshiba laptop with onboard usb
[08:51] <lowroad> hi, does anyone know if there is a descent II package for ubuntu?
[08:51] <rabeldable> this should just work...
[08:52] <Quan-Time> calamari, played with all the settings i can, everything works fine
[08:52] <Quan-Time> cept games...
[08:52] <Quan-Time> BOOOOO
[08:52] <dj-fu> you didn't asnwer my question :\
[08:52] <vapor> can any one help me out with this one
[08:52] <vapor> i have 2 computers on my vlan ! and one of them has pppoe connection ! how can i share it via one nic
[08:53] <J_element> can any one help me out with this one
[08:53] <J_element> i have 2 computers on my vlan ! and one of them has pppoe connection ! how can i share it via one nic
[08:53] <highvoltage> J_element: hold on a bit
[08:53] <highvoltage> !nat
[08:53] <ubotu> highvoltage: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:54] <J_element> !masquerade
[08:54] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, J_element
[08:54] <highvoltage> J_element: hang around just a bit, i'm sure someone would be able to point you to the appropriate documentation
[08:54] <ayabara> !no
[08:54] <ubotu> ayabara: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:54] <J_element> hrm ! highvoltage i know it can be done with 2 nic
[08:55] <highvoltage> J_element: yes, it can
[08:55] <J_element> i have to do : " echo 1 >/proc/sys/ipv4/ipforward 1 ! then iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
[08:55] <J_element> but even that didnt work
[08:55] <J_element> with 2 nic i mean
[08:56] <calamari> Quan-Time: btw, does quake give sound if run as root?
[08:56] <dj-fu> chmod 777 /dev/dsp
[08:56] <dj-fu> ^^
[08:56] <ayabara> hi guys. I need some help on which filesystem to use. I'm gonne install ubuntu on my laptop and reformat end external hd. I setup partition magic to reformat the external, but it seemed that on ext3 there was 10% overhead (14/140GB)
[08:56] <dj-fu> give everyone raw r/w to /dev/dsp sound device
[08:57] <dj-fu> that's normal
[08:57] <dj-fu> ext3 is an efficient filesystem
[08:57] <MistaED> you can decrease the overheard right?
[08:57] <rabeldable> this external hard drive problem is the same reason why people still use windows... I don't use windows anymore but i'l tell you all... I'm going to be configuring this stupid external drive for the next few hours and it should just work, my usb flash drive auto mounts and everything.... great!  thanks for the assistance dj-fu
[08:58] <Quan-Time> calamari, ive not tried sudo quake3
[08:58] <Quan-Time> should i ?
[08:58] <calamari> Quan-Time: yeah
[08:58] <r0xoR> does anyone know how to turn off join/part messages in xchat?
[08:58] <Quan-Time> r0xoR, theres a setting in SETTINGS - PREFERENCES for it
[08:58] <dj-fu> I believe you can decrease the ext3 overhead, but I wouldn't recommend it
[08:58] <dj-fu> that'd be like runnin fat therty tew.
[08:59] <r0xoR> Quan-Time, where?
[08:59] <dj-fu> highfive 
[08:59] <calamari> holycow: only time it bothered me was when writing a floppy disk.. couldn't store as much as with fat12
[08:59] <holycow> unless your running a high capacity mail server you won't notice anything ... in which case you wouldn't use ext3 anyway
[08:59] <MistaED> ... yeah who cares about 14gb
[08:59] <Narf> what's wrong with my soundcard? my sounds doesn't work
[08:59] <Quan-Time> calamari, interesting.. !!! ------- sound initialization -------
[08:59] <Quan-Time> /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy
[08:59] <Quan-Time> Could not open /dev/dsp
[08:59] <Quan-Time> ------------------------------------
[08:59] <holycow> calamari, l33t
[08:59] <lowroad> has anyone successfully installed worms of prey?
[08:59] <holycow> hehe
[09:00] <Quan-Time> oh crap.. sorry to spam everyone.. shoulda pastebin
[09:00] <r0xoR> Quan-Time, i'm pretty sure it's not in the settings
[09:00] <lowroad> !pastebin
[09:00] <ubotu> methinks pastebin is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[09:00] <dj-fu> something else must be lockin dps
[09:00] <dj-fu> dsp*
[09:00] <dj-fu> any other sound apps open?
[09:00] <dj-fu> fuser /dev/dsp
[09:01] <Quan-Time> no other sound aps open
[09:01] <dj-fu> ayabara, certainly does
[09:01] <holycow> lol :)
[09:01] <dj-fu> what about alsad etc?
[09:01] <MistaED> i'm pretty sure there's a buffer setting where if users hit to the last 14gb, it will only allow root to access the rest so that a user can't push it to no space left (so things can still work) but 14gb seems to  be extreme overkill
[09:01] <mat> anyone have mohaa installed
[09:01] <Narf> !sounds
[09:01] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Narf
[09:01] <dj-fu> toodles, people. rebooting to doze
[09:02] <ayabara> MistaED: I thought 10% was a little much. Wondered if it was something partition tragic decided to do..
[09:02] <dj-fu> you could always format it inside linux
[09:02] <J_element> ayabara
[09:02] <dj-fu> for proper
[09:02] <J_element> yeah
[09:02] <J_element> are u trying to install ubuntu on the external ?
[09:02] <dj-fu> mkfs -t ext3 /dev/whatEVERRRRR
[09:02] <lowroad> Hey, i posted my error in pastebin, how do i link to it now?
[09:02] <dj-fu> tata
[09:02] <lowroad> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13186
[09:03] <lowroad> that's my error when installing worms of prey
[09:03] <lowroad> can anyone help?
[09:03] <J_element> yeah
[09:03] <ayabara> J_element: no. I wanted to ext3 that external, and install a windows ext driver. then I need to move data to the external to make space for ubuntu on my laptop *puuh*
[09:03] <MistaED> ayabara: it could be reserved blocks for the superuser, you can knock it down to a much smaller percentage
[09:04] <ayabara> MistaED: sounds like I should examine some preferences then
[09:04] <r0xoR> anyone know where i can put /set irc_conf_mode 0 so that it'll start every time xchat starts? is there an .xchatrc somewhere?
[09:04] <calamari> Quan-Time: what did you get from sudo fuser /dev/dsp
[09:04] <Graig> are you using gnome xchat?
[09:05] <MistaED> ayabara: the manual command when using mkfs.ext3 is -m n% to set the percentage reserved but the partitioner for ubuntu has the option i'm pretty sure
[09:05] <Quan-Time> nothing
[09:05] <IcemanV9> r0xoR: xchat will remember it
[09:05] <r0xoR> ummm, ok
[09:05] <J_element> u can use the gui for that if u cae
[09:05] <J_element> care*
[09:06] <calamari> Quan-Time: is this what you get: [AMD]  ~>ls -al /dev/dsp     crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 3 2006-04-30 02:23 /dev/dsp
[09:06] <ayabara> MistaED: ok. new solution then. I make space for ubuntu by burning stuff, then format the drive from ubuntu like adviced.
[09:06] <J_element> yeah that sounds alright
[09:06] <Quan-Time> yup
[09:06] <Narf> what's wrong with my Ubuntu 5.10, because sounds doesn't work and i have soundcard
[09:07] <J_element> Narf
[09:07] <ayabara> people here make partition magic sound so scary that I almost don't dare to start it up ;-)
[09:07] <J_element> use modprobe alsa
[09:07] <calamari> Quan-Time: sorry, bedtime here.. I'm out of ideas anyways.. I was reading this a little, but it seems quite dated: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=260975
[09:07] <Quan-Time> sure thing. cheers :)
[09:07] <r0xoR> wtf, i set irc_conf_mode to both 0 and 1 and neither time did it have any effect
[09:07] <J_element> ayabara if u want ur hd to be out of warranty ! use partion magic
[09:07] <MistaED> ayabara: 0.01% will have about 14mb left for the super user, i'm no linux expert but that should be enough of a buffer for the system to keep working
[09:07] <Narf> J_element: ehh... with what?
[09:07] <J_element> cuz it screws up the cylenders
[09:08] <holycow> but ... why are you even concerned about th eoverhead?
[09:08] <r0xoR> is quit message not the same thing?
[09:08] <holycow> why not just format, install and go, whats the big deal?
[09:08] <holycow> you gain zilch and you worry about shit you don't understand
[09:08] <ayabara> MistaED: from 10 to 0.01% sounds good
[09:08] <MistaED> holycow: the overhead is 14gb, you can fit 3 dvd's in that and still have some room
[09:08] <holycow> which %99.9 percent of the time leads to catastrophic data loss
[09:08] <MistaED> holycow: how?
[09:09] <Lews> Is there a simple way to reset apache's virtual host file to the default? I completly messed mine up
[09:09] <MistaED> like i said, not a linux expert
[09:09] <holycow> which part of 'shit you don't understand' don't you understand? :) the statement wasn't directed at you tho hehe its for ayabra
[09:10] <cafuego> Lews: Delete it, then use 'dpkg -i --force-confmiss <file>' to reinstall apache.
[09:10] <holycow> its just weird to watch people waste time worrying about nonsense that won't make much diff overall
[09:10] <Iceflame20> morning
[09:10] <holycow> ayabara, i mean it with humour, it's hard sometimes to get that accross via text :)
[09:10] <Lews> Thanks
[09:10] <crunchyfish> what can i press to get to the text-only command prompt (shell?) while loading ubuntu?
[09:10] <ayabara> holycow: I meant to reply with humour :-)
[09:10] <Iceflame20> i can't really find any easy-to-understand docs on the differences of i386 vs amd64, am i looking in the wrong places?
[09:11] <holycow> ayabara, just checking :)
[09:11] <ayabara> holycow: first time I use ext3, so I just wanted to check if the 14GB was normal. Won't cry over it for long :-)
[09:11] <MistaED> ayabara: maybe to 5% is better, just read it prevents fragmentation :P
[09:11] <MistaED> the default in the man file is 5%
[09:13] <Graig> can you use gstreamer .1 with .08?  or should you only use one of them at a time?
[09:14] <ayabara> MistaED: 5 sounds better too.
[09:14] <ayabara> can I do this formatting from the ubuntu livecd?
[09:14] <ayabara> before I install
[09:14] <morphix> anyone tried using mythtv on ubuntu?
[09:15] <MistaED> ayabara: yeah with the mkfs.ext3 command, after you set up the partitions
[09:17] <ayabara> MistaED: sounds like a plan. I also have gparted livecd, which came recommended in this channel
[09:17] <ayabara> I have sooo many ways to screw things up now ...
[09:17] <holycow> morphix, yeah its super easy to setup provided you have a supported tv card.  i don't have my linkage for you but there are some excellent step by step guides out there.  perhaps wiki can ehlp
[09:17] <morphix> well atm i want to test it.. without tv out
[09:17] <morphix> just on screen
[09:18] <morphix> i cant seem to compile it tho
[09:18] <holycow> tvout? you mean tv in
[09:18] <morphix> no
[09:18] <morphix> tv out
[09:18] <holycow> ah fancy
[09:18] <morphix> during make it pops up with errors :(
[09:19] <holycow>  compiling can get complicated, i remember looking at the errors and tracking down missing bits
[09:19] <morphix> stdlib.h, stdio.h, string & ctype.h are missing
[09:19] <holycow> not sure if i can help at all on this, its been a long time since i've had it setup
[09:20] <morphix> string.h&
[09:20] <morphix> *
[09:20] <Quan-Time> ok i found a way supposidly for sound in ET to work..
[09:20] <cliche> ?
[09:20] <ayabara> last topic I will bother you guys with (for now) : have anyone used gparted livecd?
[09:20] <kumar> when i using "sudo apt-get install wine"
[09:21] <kumar> the error msg come
[09:21] <Quan-Time> BUT i dont know how to use it properly
[09:21] <holycow> ayabara, not cd, but i've used gparted
[09:21] <morphix> i've used gparted off ubuntu live cd :P
[09:21] <cliche> lol
[09:23] <ayabara> holycow: is it easy to use? if it is just 'right-click partition and choose format' I think in time I could do it ;-)
[09:23] <FearMoth> i'm using kubuntu dapper, and when I try to install lirc make stops with the error "The present kernel configuration has modules disabled. Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support. Then build a kernel with module support enabled." .. when I run "lsmod" it lists loaded modules. what could be wrong?
[09:23] <holycow> ayabara, thats pretty much what it is yep
[09:23] <holycow> ayabara, you can't really make amistake beyond the regular 'not knowing what a partition'is kinda deal or having a backup of data
[09:24] <ajayc> hi guys
[09:24] <ajayc> still cant get uuntu to recognize cd rom
[09:24] <cliche> hi
[09:24] <ajayc> anyone found a solution?
[09:24] <Quan-Time> i need to try also-oss
[09:24] <Quan-Time> if anyone knows what that means.. just asking if anyone can help me walk thru it
[09:25] <cliche> alsa-oss?
[09:25] <crunchyfish> I did a server install of Ubuntu, and then upgraded to desktop with sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop. Ubuntu now loads properly but as soon as the GUI login screen shows up my pc either freezes or restarts. Any ideas?
[09:25] <holycow> ajayc, whats the problem exactly? sounds like either you need a new ide cable or a new cdrom or your mobo is so new that it has some flaky chipset thats not supported
[09:25] <cliche> is it a problem?
[09:25] <ayabara> holycow: the partiion is emptied and has a unique size, so it should be easy. (partition magic uninstalling as we speak :-) )
[09:25] <ajayc> holycow: i got a acer laptopintel 915 chipset ubuntu cant find cdrom
[09:26] <cliche> is your cdrom the ATAPI?
[09:26] <ajayc> yes
[09:26] <holycow> crunchyfish, that sounds like a .bashrc or whatever file issue, i've had that before.  one can muck about with file permissions but in all honesty if you have a backup of your data, a clean reinstall is much faster.  you can have it all up and running in 20 minutes or less
[09:26] <ayabara> holycow, MistaED, j_element: thanks for helping.
[09:26] <holycow> no worries
[09:27] <holycow> ajayc, i run those, never seen that problem
[09:27] <MistaED> ayabara: np
[09:27] <BSP> I've got trouble connecting to the internet with Ubuntu.
[09:27] <ajayc> well its not only me the forum is filed with this prob
[09:27] <ajayc> under laptop support
[09:27] <holycow> ajayc, where exactly are we talking about 'not recognizing cdrom' ... during the process trying to install, or post install after you bootup?
[09:28] <ajayc> during install
[09:28] <crunchyfish> holycow, i've tried installing desktop straight from the disk at least ten times and it always freezes during the installer. i think it's maybe a hardware issue? i have an ati card and i wonder if that's not the cause
[09:28] <holycow> ah. breezy or dapper?
[09:28] <crunchyfish> but i have no idea how to approach it
[09:28] <holycow> crunchyfish, oh heres something you can try
[09:29] <holycow> when your at login press ctrl/f1 and login via console
[09:29] <ajayc> downloading goblinx now
[09:29] <holycow> ctrl/alt/ft1 i mean
[09:29] <holycow> then do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:29] <ajayc> anyone heard bout goblinx?
[09:29] <crunchyfish> ctrl/alt/f1 never works for me. is recovery mode good enough?
[09:29] <iandefor> ajayc: what's the model number of your notebook?
[09:29] <ajayc> 4152 NLci
[09:29] <holycow> and follow the process.... make sure to pick the vesa video card driver not ati
[09:29] <holycow> cruncy
[09:29] <iandefor> ajay: thankee much
[09:30] <holycow> crunchyfish, then try ctrl/alt/f2 ...etc
[09:30] <cliche> why not ati?
[09:30] <holycow> cliche, because we want to eliminate ati drivers as the issue
[09:30] <cliche> ...
[09:30] <crunchyfish> actually, i was trying to find a solution on my own and i was mucking around in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and it's already set to vesa. should i try switching it to ATI?
[09:31] <holycow> crunchyfish, sure
[09:31] <cliche> iirc, ati > vesa fb
[09:31] <xface> hi
[09:31] <ajayc> iandefor: found anything?
[09:31] <crunchyfish> should i leave the bus id at PCI:1:0:0? because i'm really not sure what that means :( is it talking about which slot it's in?

[09:32] <xface> i liek to work as root
[09:33] <cafuego> Run 'sudo -s' then.
[09:33] <xface> i dotn want to give sudo allt he time
[09:33] <xface> sudo -s ? what does that fo?
[09:33] <cafuego> CHeck the manpage.
[09:33] <holycow> xface, your on irc as root eh?
[09:33] <holycow> i hope you get cracked
[09:33] <xface> yes
[09:33] <cliche> why not?
[09:33] <iandefor> ajay: what series is your laptop?
[09:33] <ajayc> travelmate
[09:33] <holycow> !root
[09:34] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[09:34] <holycow> thats why cliche
[09:34] <xface> is there a way to avoid sudo all the time?
[09:34] <ajayc> iandefor: travelmate
[09:34] <holycow> xface, no, just get used to it.  its only 4 letters.
[09:34] <cliche> ?
[09:34] <xface> man its very annoying
[09:34] <iandefor> ajay: ok, I'm looking into it... my computer is being terrible and slow atm, but I'll do what I can...
[09:34] <ajayc> thnkx
[09:35] <holycow> xface, only for the first day or so.  focus on the important things like making sure you try to work securely, focusing on things like personal comfort usually leads to bad habits
[09:35] <holycow> xface, witness the windows fiasco
[09:36] <xface> yes
[09:36] <xface> is there a way sudo  to be implid in all commands?
[09:36] <cliche> ...
[09:36] <xface> and as for security its only me that workj in my pc
[09:36] <crunchyfish> holycow i could kiss you
[09:37] <holycow> please don't
[09:37] <holycow> *cough*
[09:37] <crunchyfish> after four days of trying to install ubuntu everything is working
[09:37] <crunchyfish> haha, don't worry
[09:37] <holycow> crunchyfish, nice
[09:37] <cliche> can we trust sudo?
[09:37] <carthik_home> xface, open a terminal, and do $sudo -s - H
[09:37] <xface> is there a way sudo  to be implied in all commands?
[09:37] <carthik_home> then you have a "root" terminal if that's what you crave.
[09:37] <holycow> cliche, to the extent that you can trust any open source package i guess
[09:37] <xface> root@dell:~# $sudo -s - H

[09:38] <carthik_home> -H sorry
[09:38] <cliche> hehe, really?
[09:38] <carthik_home> there is no space between - and H
[09:38] <crunchyfish> ack nevermind. it froze up again once i typed in my name and password
[09:38] <holycow> lol
[09:39] <cliche> upgrade -> sudo -> hacked
[09:39] <xface> nikos@dell:~$ root@dell:~# $sudo -s -H
[09:39] <xface> bash: root@dell:~#: command not found
[09:39] <holycow> crunchyfish, i guess its not the driver then ...
[09:39] <xface> man it gets on my nervers
[09:39] <xface> i want to edit system files
[09:39] <crunchyfish> this is so frustrating. i guess i ought to try another distro and see if it installs without issue
[09:39] <xface> an system wont let me if iam not root
[09:39] <xface> this i VERY annoying
[09:39] <holycow> crunchyfish, what kinda hardware? just out of curiosity
[09:40] <Quan-Time> i installed the q3 linux point release.. can i unintsall it ? i cant find where it is
[09:40] <Quan-Time> unless i have to do it manually.
[09:40] <Quan-Time> just delete the directeroy or somethin ?
[09:41] <carthik_home> xface, the $ is not needed, that was to show it was a command, type sudo -s -H and dude, dont take security lightly for one day it might bite you where it hurts
[09:41] <carthik_home> that said, good night.
[09:41] <xface> hwo am i goifn eo edit system fiels with no problem?
[09:41] <carthik_home> xface, sudo gedit filename
[09:41] <xface> carthik_home, well ok, but in home sue
[09:41] <carthik_home> or sudo vi filename
[09:41] <xface> use iam the only to use thsi comp so its ok to workj as root
[09:42] <xface> commands get very big when one tries to sudo all the time
[09:42] <xface> and gievs passwords all the time
[09:42] <carthik_home> xface, might not be okay when you have a remote attacker, and a port on your computer is open to incoming connections. or when you leave your computer on all the time
[09:42] <cliche> hehe
[09:43] <xface> nikos@dell:~$ sudo -s -H
[09:43] <xface> root@dell:/home/nikos#
[09:43] <xface> hey thats ncie
[09:43] <carthik_home> finally :)
[09:43] <cliche> nice for hacking
[09:43] <xface> i become root and it leave me work on my nikso home account
[09:43] <xface> i was doign sudo -i
[09:43] <xface> but then everyting is saved ion root dir
[09:44] <crunchyfish> holycow, to be honest i'm not sure on the specifics. i know it's got a 1.8ghz Athlon 64, a Radeon 9600, 512mb of ram, though I don't know the brand, and I'm not sure on the motherboard. I got it from a friend who was upgrading
[09:44] <xface> cliche, they wotn hack me
[09:44] <cliche> maybe
[09:44] <xface> my root is password protected
[09:44] <cliche> maybe
[09:45] <holycow> *wheee*
[09:45] <xface> i ahve people trying though :)
[09:45] <holycow> instant webhosting space
[09:45] <holycow> *cough*
[09:45] <Chousuke> xface: you'd better have a good password.
[09:45] <ajayc> iandefor: found?
[09:45] <xface> holycow, yes i ahve many unwanted services running
[09:45] <xface> but as i learn ubuntu better i will close them
[09:45] <xface> Chousuke, yeap i do!
[09:45] <Chousuke> xface: why have you started them? :/
[09:46] <xface> iam no idiot to use as password my username
[09:46] <holycow> xface, lol at least you admit at being a prime target for cracking :)
[09:46] <xface> or birtdate or pets anme :)
[09:46] <xface> hodgman,  yes
[09:46] <Chousuke> ubuntu doesn't start any unneeded services per default
[09:46] <xface> Chousuke, i diodn started them
[09:46] <xface> ubuntu did by default
[09:46] <cliche> if you had a 64-chars password, is it safe?
[09:46] <morphix> xface but as i learn ubuntu better i will close them <<< should be other way around.. once u learn ubuntu THEN u use the other services
[09:47] <xface> cliche, i think yes
[09:47] <cliche> oww
[09:47] <xface> whos gonan guess 64-byte long password string?
[09:47] <Chousuke> xface: It shouldn't start any services per default
[09:47] <Chousuke> me: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa oslt
[09:47] <xface> how do i check what services are running?
[09:47] <cliche> I think the 128-chars is much better
[09:47] <Chousuke> you shouldn't have any running
[09:47] <xface> i think 8 chars are also fine
[09:48] <Chousuke> cliche: how are you going to remember 128 chars?
[09:48] <cliche> but I doubt I can remember it
[09:48] <Chousuke> 8 is minimum I guess.
[09:48] <cliche> 8? ho ho ho
[09:48] <xface> yes but who is gonan guess it?
[09:48] <cliche> too short
[09:48] <holycow> its not actually difficult to remember 50 letter passwords
[09:48] <Chousuke> cliche: nay
[09:48] <xface> i now its not
[09:48] <iandefor> ajay: a lead or two
[09:48] <cliche> 8 was good at 20 years ago
[09:49] <holycow> you create a passphrase, thats easy to remember and then superimpose alphanumeric and non alaphanumeric variations on top of that
[09:49] <holycow> it just takes long to type
[09:49] <Chousuke> cliche: 8 is fine as long as it looks like Ls3#Q1_
[09:49] <Kennie> thisismyubergoodpasswordwichmaybeisnthackableonlyishouldusesomenumberstoobutimn00b
[09:49] <xface> that what i do for example
[09:49] <cliche> 16, at least
[09:49] <xface> passpahjre = tthi is a beautifull day
[09:49] <xface> so password is 'tiabd'
[09:49] <holycow> Kennie, see actually you could remember that fairly easily
[09:49] <iandefor> ajay: my thoughts: you have a few options regarding installation
[09:49] <cliche> I can remember a 16-chars password :)
[09:50] <xface> how do i check what services are running?
[09:50] <Chousuke> passwords suck anyway
[09:50] <morphix> my pass is 16 chars :)
[09:50] <cliche> even 32
[09:50] <xface> lol
[09:50] <cliche> 64 is too hard
[09:50] <xface> cna brute frorce being aplied by a ahcker?
[09:50] <xface> i thiunk not
[09:50] <holycow> crunchyfish, *hmmm* i'm all out of ideas.  that machine sounds like something i would need to see physically ... yeah i guess you don't have a choice.  why not download kanotix or knoppix and see if a live cd will work fine
[09:51] <xface> cause system will log his attemtp and denty login at 3 awrong attempts no?
[09:51] <holycow> crunchyfish, they you can even try downloading maybe suse or dapper or something and see if that works :/
[09:51] <holycow> your error doesn't make a lot of sense, i don't see how starting up your session can freeze a system after a clean install ... x is already running
[09:51] <xface> hey
[09:51] <xface> how come gedit worksd from konsole now?
[09:51] <xface> iam still root
[09:52] <cliche> so?
[09:52] <iandefor> ajay: if you have a truly burning desire to install ubuntu, you can try some of the guides at the wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation)
[09:52] <xface> before it ddint
[09:52] <xface> if i sudo -i then i can run gedit
[09:52] <iandefor> ajay: I think what might be of particular interest to you is the netinstall and the usb stick install
[09:52] <xface> if i sudo -s -H then i can
[09:53] <crunchyfish> i'll try those suggestions holycow, thanks again for your time and patience
[09:54] <iandefor> iandefor: maybe even the Windows Install
[09:54] <iandefor> oops... I meant "ajay: maybe even the Windows Install"
[09:54] <ajayc> iandefor: i cant ubuntu wont detect my hdd thorgh netinstall
[09:54] <xface> ?
[09:54] <cliche> who is using windows here?
[09:55] <morphix> i use a mix of linux & winblows :)
[09:55] <iandefor> ajay: and you don't have a usb stick or external hard drive?
[09:55] <xface> why in the repositoris ic nnnto fidn anywheer apache v2.2 ?

[09:56] <cliche> just kidding
[09:56] <iandefor> ajay: ok, how about the Windows install? have you tried that? Or is this a clean computer?
[09:57] <iandefor> cliche: lol
[09:57] <xface> why in the repositoris i cannot find anywhere apache v2.2 ?
[09:57] <cci> What is the easiest way to remove uncessary boot services
[09:57] <ajayc> iandefor: am on suse

[10:00] <cliche> less is more
[10:00] <cliche> always

[10:02] <cliche> xfce = less than 128M
[10:02] <xface> yes
[10:02] <xface> but pelas eanswe rme
[10:02] <xface> will for example i use gaim from xfce4?
[10:02] <holycow> i run gnome on everything from 500 mhz cpus on up ... its not really an issue, you just need lots of ram and decent vid card
[10:03] <xface> ihow much ram gnome requires?
[10:03] <cliche> who knows, maybe no limited
[10:03] <xface> but will i bale abel to do everyting i do with gnome

[10:04] <Ademan> cliche: what's it saying? i'm getting a "no identd"
[10:04] <ajayc> iandefor: any other idea?
[10:04] <morphix> can i rename my user without having to create a new one?
[10:04] <cliche> Ademan, so?
[10:04] <xface> will gaim work through xfce4?
[10:04] <Ademan> cliche: well i was trying to ctrl+v in MIRC... apparently it doesntl ike that lol
[10:05] <holycow> lol
[10:05] <cliche> Ademan, is that bad?
[10:05] <iandefor> ajay: you could swap out a disk on a desktop with the laptop hard disk and install it via that
[10:05] <holycow> that was like talking to a 4 year old
[10:05] <iandefor> ajay: but this is what we call a "bad idea"
[10:06] <ajayc> iandefor: seriuosly man tell me a way
[10:06] <ajayc> ubuntu 4.10 workx fine
[10:06] <Ademan> anyways, my question is as follows: i recently installed ubuntu on my laptop, and on startup (first time every time) i get an error "hw_random: RNG not detected" now i did some googling and it told me to remove hw_random from /etc/modules but i haven't the slightest clue how to do that when the system isn't fully up (heck i dunno if i could do it if it WAS up fully)
[10:06] <iandefor> ajay: if 4.10 works, then I'd do a dist-upgrade from that
[10:06] <mqw> quit
[10:07] <iandefor> I'm seriously brain-dead and out of ideas
[10:07] <ajayc> iandefor: will do that
[10:07] <ajayc> iandefor: is there anyone who can mail me dapper cd cos i cant download 400mb download limit
[10:07] <HedgeMage> ajayc: shipit.ubuntu.com is your friend :)

[10:08] <HedgeMage> it'll be up soon, just be patient :)
[10:08] <cliche> ajayc, o.o
[10:08] <ajayc> cliche: what?
[10:08] <iandefor> ajay: I'd wait until ShipIt starts shipping Dapper, yeah

[10:16] <ailean> hey folks - when trying to open synaptic, I get an error box saying that only one update tool is allowed to be open at once, but no other is open. I was trying to update the system when it failed and rebooted, and I think there must be a flag somewhere that has set apt as open. How can I fix this?
[10:16] <nikosgr> ot refresh raets. why?
[10:16] <FallenHitokiri> nikosgr: what's the problem?
[10:17] <ailean> nandemonai, June 1st

[10:17] <nikosgr> but the drop down menu wotn open
[10:17] <nikosgr> it leave smy refresh rate son 60MHz
[10:17] <rohan> can someone please send me ubuntu and kubuntu stickers to show off, for my pc ? (i stay in india, so if someone from india is sending, i will be more than happy to pay for it)

[10:19] <cliche> (my recycled monitor)
[10:19] <nikosgr> how can i chnage my refresh rat sin ubuntu?
[10:19] <ailean> nikosgr, make sure you have the right driver for your monitor installed first, then go back to the refresh rate screen
[10:19] <FallenHitokiri> nikosgr: in xorg.conf
[10:20] <nikosgr> ailean, ow cna i kake sure of that
[10:20] <nikosgr> in xp i download the latest nvidia drivers
[10:20] <cliche> (a cheap recycled sony monitor is enough)
[10:20] <nikosgr> i ahve a GeForce 4 MX 64 MB
[10:21] <holycow> !restricted
[10:21] <ubotu> somebody said restricted was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[10:21] <cliche> 64bit/64M?
[10:21] <holycow> !nvidia
[10:21] <ubotu> Please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[10:21] <nikosgr> is it easy?
[10:21] <holycow> nikosgr, check out the nvidia info for setting up drivers
[10:21] <holycow> yep
[10:22] <holycow> the other thing you will need to do is set the proper vertical and horizontal refresh rates for your monitor, you might need to google that the put it in your xorg.conf file
[10:22] <ailean> i managed to do it nikosgr
[10:22] <rohan> blaa.. no stickers ? :(
[10:22] <Ademan> is there a way to edit your startup script without ubuntu fully starting up?
[10:22] <anymo> hello everybody...
[10:22] <holycow> once you have the drivers and refresh rates installed, the pulldown menu will give you refresh rate options
[10:22] <cliche> hi
[10:22] <ailean> Ademan, yes
[10:22] <ailean> Ademan, start up Ubuntu and go into safe mode
[10:23] <Ademan> i can't make it past lilo
[10:23] <anymo> can anyone help me with my apache2? I have, uhm let's say accidentally removed /etc/apache2 and now I can't get my apache2 working again :(
[10:23] <Ademan> well

[10:23] <holycow> Ademan, lilo?
[10:23] <PORDO> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2078944470709189270

[10:23] <holycow> Ademan, why do you have lilo?
[10:23] <ailean> you use lilo?
[10:23] <nikosgr> is it ok if i apt-get install nvidia-glx
[10:23] <nikosgr> ?
[10:23] <cliche> anymo, O.o
[10:23] <Ademan> because apparently GRUB hates xfs?
[10:23] <holycow> nikosgr, yes, you need to use sudo apt-get ... tho
[10:23] <cliche> anymo, f i n e . . .
[10:24] <nikosgr> well i logged in as root
[10:24] <anymo> cliche, it wasn't really accident... ^^ but the thing is that I have huuuge mess now :(
[10:24] <Ademan> anyways... somehow i need to remove a module from the list without fully starting up...
[10:24] <nikosgr> if i install the nvidia driver
[10:24] <anymo> cliche, I have tried to reinstall apache2 but it won't generate apache2.conf again :(
[10:24] <nikosgr> all use accoutn will benefit form that right?
[10:25] <holycow> nikosgr, yes, but ...
[10:25] <holycow> !roo
[10:25] <ubotu> holycow: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:25] <holycow> !root
[10:25] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[10:25] <anymo> cliche, any hope for me? :)
[10:25] <cliche> anymo, retrieve from the distro cd?
[10:25] <holycow> please read that ... you shouldn't be running as root
[10:25] <anymo> cliche, oh, and there is another problem ^^
[10:25] <anymo> cliche, I can't remove phpmyadmin
[10:25] <cliche> anymo, or... use the google?
[10:26] <nikosgr> how come my rroot accoutn dotn have an icon cale synaptic
[10:26] <anymo> cliche, what to google for? is there anyone that stupid to delete /etc/apache2? ^^
[10:26] <Ademan> how bout this... is there a way to boot from the bash console?
[10:26] <cliche> anymo, you...
[10:27] <anymo> cliche, ah what to do now.. it's to late to think it over now :P
[10:27] <cliche> anymo, I think you need a GOD
[10:27] <anymo> cliche, do you know why apache wont create another apache2.conf?
[10:27] <anymo> cliche, it recreates everythin except that thing as far as I have noticed...
[10:27] <cliche> anymo, you can... but
[10:28] <ailean> PORDO, that's very interesting but not for here
[10:28] <ajay> should i try qemu?
[10:28] <anymo> cliche, is there any way to completely remove apache2 and then do a clean install again?
[10:28] <cliche> anymo, I doubt you can figure it out
[10:28] <ailean> hey folks - when trying to open synaptic, I get an error box saying that only one update tool is allowed to be open at once, but no other is open. I was trying to update the system when it failed and rebooted, and I think there must be a flag somewhere that has set apt as open. How can I fix this?
[10:29] <anymo> cliche, because when I try to remove apache2 it says it has to remove phpmyadmin and php (seems logical to me) but phpmy admin can't be removed !!
[10:29] <cliche> anymo, maybe, use you mighty hands...
[10:29] <spikeb> since ATI and nvidia both are very secretive, what's the next best thing for a video card that is very well supported by free drivers? (preferably with the company behind it supporting OSS as well)
[10:29] <Chousuke> intel integrated chips? :P
[10:29] <cliche> anymo, anything is possible by your own hands...
[10:29] <PORDO> ailean that's for everywhere pal.
[10:29] <PORDO> ailean this is the future of our planet!
[10:29] <anymo> cliche, I have noticed that :)
[10:30] <ailean> PORDO, don't call me pal, pal
[10:30] <spikeb> Chousuke, heh, probably true :P
[10:30] <ailean> PORDO, this is a help channel, not for your politics
[10:30] <cliche> anymo, at least, the worst, rm -rf /
[10:30] <duncanm> how do i use the scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d?
[10:30] <ailean> PORDO, go and paste it in the off-topic chan by all means
[10:30] <ailean> PORDO, I'm not trying to censor you - just keep it on topic here
[10:30] <anymo> cliche, this is what I get after trying to remove phpmyadmin: E: phpmyadmin: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 127
[10:30] <Ademan> is there another linux channel other than #debian? (its a very general linux question but the people there are bein jerks)
[10:31] <anymo> cliche, if you could help me with this...
[10:31] <Alex_BO> HELLO!When will come out a new version of Ubuntu?Are there news about it?
[10:31] <nandemonai> Ademan, ##linux
[10:31] <anymo> cliche, why doesn't apache2 recreate apache2.conf?
[10:32] <ailean> Alex_BO,  June 1st, but a test version is available now
[10:32] <cliche> anymo, eh...
[10:32] <nandemonai> Alex, June 1st
[10:32] <BSP> Did anyone else have big difficulty in conencting to the internet with Ubuntu?
[10:32] <nikosgr> ok nvidia drivers installed
[10:32] <nikosgr> it now says 85mhz refresh rate
[10:32] <ailean> nikosgr, you'll prob need to reboot
[10:32] <Alex_BO> ailean, really??? and why can i find that information in ubuntu's website???
[10:32] <nikosgr> but from resoltion ic ant chnage that to 75
[10:32] <nikosgr> why it wont let me select?
[10:33] <anymo> cliche, I have uninstalled apache2, but phpmyadmin has left as broken package and I can't remove it...
[10:33] <ailean> Alex_BO, they don't publicise it to joe average because it's technically not stable - i.e has a not of bugs
[10:33] <ailean> Alex_BO, but I've been using it without any prob for many weeks
[10:33] <ajay> BSP: i capuldnt even install ubuntu
[10:33] <anymo> cliche, then again when I install apache again everything seems to be fine except the fact that apache2.conf is missing :(
[10:33] <BSP> Heh.
[10:33] <nandemonai> ailean, did you do a dist-upgrade or fresh install?
[10:33] <nikosgr> dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ?
[10:34] <ailean> nandemonai, dist-upgrade
[10:34] <nandemonai> ailean, and no probs?
[10:34] <cliche> anymo, in theory, you can fix this by hands
[10:34] <Alex_BO> ailean, uhm... but why there are information like "at the 1st of june will go out a new version of ubuntu!!! WOW!" ?
[10:34] <ailean> nandemonai, no, no probs
[10:34] <nikosgr> how cna i chanmge my resoltuon to 75?
[10:34] <cliche> anymo, in practice, who knows?
[10:34] <nandemonai> Hmm thanks might give it a go myself
[10:34] <anymo> cliche, by my hands? are you sure that is smart? ^^
[10:34] <ailean> Alex_BO, because it's still a month away and a new version is released roughly every 6 months :)
[10:35] <cliche> anymo, it depends
[10:35] <ailean> Alex_BO, people know about it :)
[10:35] <nikosgr> what must i change in xorg.conf?
[10:35] <PORDO> say i'm trying to compile something, and i get an error like this: make[1] : *** [zfone_crypto_vad.o]  Error 1, what can i do to find out what the error is?
[10:35] <anymo> cliche, do you have any idea about that phpmyadmin?
[10:35] <Alex_BO> ailean, yes, i know too, but i could not find a link in the official website to a beta version of the new ubuntu
[10:35] <Ademan> anyone know how to solve a problem where on startup i get the following error "hw_random: RNG not detected"
[10:35] <cliche> anymo, no
[10:36] <anymo> cliche, if I could at least remove it...
[10:36] <dli> Ademan, don't load the kernel driver hw_random
[10:36] <nikosgr> will someone tell me pelase?
[10:36] <cliche> anymo, I think this is why the LFS is the best distro
[10:36] <anymo> cliche, LFS?
[10:36] <cliche> Linux From Scratch
[10:36] <h0ned> Hi, i am trying to get an aztech 208U adsl-modem working. Completed making and installing the driver- problem is configuration- the system cant detect the modem.
[10:36] <Chousuke> cliche: it's not a real distro :p
[10:37] <Chousuke> cliche: it's a meta-distro.
[10:37] <cliche> a book?
[10:37] <cliche> anyway...
[10:37] <KenSentMe> nikosgr: can't u use the menu, preferences -> screenresolution?
[10:37] <ailean> Alex_BO, through the "Developers" tab on the ubuntu site
[10:37] <cliche> even you don't need the LFS
[10:37] <nandemonai> think he wants refresh not resolution
[10:37] <nikosgr> KenSentMe, ye si open it allrioght
[10:37] <Alex_BO> ailean, thanks!
[10:37] <nandemonai> nikosgr, run the nvidia-setup thing..
[10:37] <nikosgr> but it wont me let another refresh rate
[10:37] <nikosgr> it just says 85
[10:37] <cliche> the best distro is.... Linux From Hands - LFH
[10:37] <nikosgr> liek before said 60!
[10:38] <ailean> Alex_BO, I'm not telling you to install this okay? There MAY still be severe bugs in it
[10:38] <KenSentMe> nikosgr: a, sorry, didn't read your previous posts
[10:38] <nikosgr> its ok
[10:38] <Alex_BO> ailean, no no, i'm just curious... what's the difference between beta and alpha versions?
[10:38] <nikosgr> now how can i chnage them?
[10:39] <Quan-Time> wolfET is in /usr/local/games/ET and when i load the game up, it loads to the menu, but i cant play the game, as it CANT write anything (failed to write default.cfg)
[10:39] <h0ned> Hi, i am trying to get an aztech 208U adsl-modem working. Completed making and installing the driver- problem is configuration- the system cant detect the modem.
[10:39] <ailean> Alex_BO, the level of testing
[10:39] <Quan-Time> i CAN run it as sudo ET
[10:39] <Alex_BO> ailean, so... beta is a major level, isn't it?
[10:39] <Quan-Time> any way to fix this ? like allow full permission for just that directory ?
[10:39] <doms> i type locate zope but then when i cd the directory no such file on the directory
[10:39] <doms> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13187
[10:39] <nikosgr> KenSentMe, >?
[10:39] <ailean> Alex_BO, alpha are generally very unstable, beta are generally okay, but could (and many DO) have major bugs
[10:39] <doms> thats the pastebin
[10:39] <Ademan> dli: how do i make it so it doesnt load that kernel driver?
[10:40] <ailean> Alex_BO, but dapper is on its 5th release now - most of the bugs are gone
[10:40] <Quan-Time> can i change the attributes of some files, so they are not "read only" or something ? as moving it into a different directory does nothing (quake3 is also the same)
[10:40] <nikosgr> will someone fuckign anser me?
[10:40] <Alex_BO> ailean, do u know if there are a live version?
[10:40] <ailean> nikosgr, no
[10:40] <goonie> here's a newbie question for you. How do I log into webmin? I've started the service just fine and tried typing http://127.0.0.1:10000 in firefox but that does nothing. What am I doing wrong?
[10:40] <ailean> Alex_BO, look at this to see what is possible on dapper: http://img110.imageshack.us/my.php?image=xglwineandtransparentvideoongn.jpg
[10:40] <nikosgr> why no?
[10:40] <nikosgr> this is suppsoe to be a help channel
[10:41] <ailean> nikosgr, because you're swearing at me
[10:41] <Quan-Time> nikosgr, whats your problem ? your refresh rate on your monitor isnt what you want ?
[10:41] <nikosgr> yes
[10:41] <nikosgr> i cant cnhage it
[10:41] <nikosgr> its not clear
[10:41] <Quan-Time> and you have edited your xorg.conf file accordingly ?
[10:41] <nikosgr> 85 is too high for my monitor
[10:41] <Alex_BO> ailean, WHAT'S THAT????
[10:41] <nikosgr> no i dont knwo how to chnage it
[10:41] <Alex_BO> ailean, ARE U KIDDING??????
[10:41] <ailean> nikosgr, note that I've asked my question twice too, and haven't got an answer - I'm not swearing
[10:41] <Quan-Time> ok, are you in a term window ?
[10:41] <nikosgr> yes
[10:41] <h0ned> Hello, anyone? i really cant get the adsl modem working here- so i am using a driver called eagle-usb that came with the modem
[10:42] <h0ned> damned thing doesnt have a port to NIC
[10:42] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: have u tried chmod -R a+x /path/to/dir ?
[10:42] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: and use sudo for that
[10:42] <doms> i type locate zope but then when i cd the directory no such file on the directory
[10:42] <doms> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13187
[10:42] <Quan-Time> ailean and nikosgr try this   sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:42] <Quan-Time> thats a text based editor
[10:42] <nikosgr> done
[10:42] <nikosgr> yes i know vi
[10:43] <Quan-Time> so you know about :wq ?
[10:43] <nikosgr> yes
[10:43] <Quan-Time> :write quit
[10:43] <Quan-Time> goodo
[10:43] <ailean> Alex_BO, private message
[10:43] <doms> i type locate zope but then when i cd the directory no such file on the directory
[10:43] <doms> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13187
[10:43] <Quan-Time> so you think you can figgure it out from there ?
[10:43] <nikosgr> no i cant
[10:43] <nikosgr> i dotn knwo hwo to tell xzorg to use 75 insteead of 85mhz
[10:43] <Quan-Time> ok, so it wont change to the refresh that you want ?
[10:43] <Quan-Time> ok gotcha
[10:43] <Quan-Time> 2 secs
[10:43] <nikosgr> sure
[10:44] <Quan-Time> nikosgr, do you see Section "Monitor" anywhere ?
[10:44] <nikosgr> yes
[10:44] <Quan-Time> should have HorizSync and VertRefresh
[10:44] <Quan-Time> so you can manually specify it
[10:44] <nikosgr> Section "Monitor"
[10:44] <nikosgr>         Identifier      "DELL E771a"
[10:44] <nikosgr>         Option          "DPMS"
[10:44] <nikosgr> EndSection
[10:45] <Quan-Time> ok gotcha
[10:45] <nikosgr> yes
[10:45] <Quan-Time> ok, i have 4 lines
[10:45] <Quan-Time> those 2 and
[10:45] <KenSentMe> nikosgr: try adding VertRefresh     75
[10:45] <Quan-Time> HorizSync	31-62
[10:45] <Quan-Time> 	VertRefresh	55-90
[10:46] <nikosgr> why doesnt it by default have the verefres line so io can chnage it?
[10:46] <KenSentMe> nikosgr: but save a backup of your file first
[10:46] <Quan-Time> but my monitor can go to 120hz... i jsut dont use it
[10:46] <Ademan> is anyone familiar with the error at startup "hw_random: RNG not detected" ?
[10:46] <Quan-Time> yer, you should make a xorg.conf.backup or somethin (i have one)
[10:46] <KenSentMe> nikosgr: my xorg.conf has those lines too
[10:46] <KenSentMe> KenSentMe: strange why you don't have them
[10:46] <nikosgr> yes
[10:46] <nikosgr> i added the line
[10:46] <Quan-Time> nikosgr, you can basically keep adding monitors to your hearts content. if you set them up properly.. i currently have 3 monitors over 2 video cards
[10:47] <nikosgr> also why in resolution gui ubuntu wont let me change the values
[10:47] <nikosgr> where its easier?
[10:47] <Quan-Time> all on the one macihne.
[10:47] <nikosgr> yes
[10:47] <Quan-Time> wont let you change resolution ?
[10:47] <nikosgr> may i restart x now?
[10:47] <Quan-Time> hmm.. i had that once.
[10:47] <nikosgr> yes it wont
[10:47] <nikosgr> it justs ays 86
[10:47] <Quan-Time> yer you can restart
[10:47] <anymo> cliche, hey I solved the problem :)
[10:47] <nikosgr> an before it said 60
[10:47] <nikosgr> before i installed nvidia drivers
[10:48] <anymo> cliche, googling led me to the ubuntu forums and the phpmyadmin problem
[10:48] <ArdentIce> bueno dias tengo problemas al hacer las particiones em ubuntu alguien me puede ayudar?
[10:48] <anymo> cliche, after I removed phpmyadmin everything else was a piece of cake :) simply reinstalling apache2
[10:48] <nikosgr> Section "Monitor"
[10:48] <nikosgr>         Identifier      "DELL E771a"
[10:48] <nikosgr>         Option          "DPMS"
[10:48] <nikosgr>         VertRefresh     75
[10:48] <nikosgr> EndSection
[10:48] <nikosgr> so this is ok?
[10:48] <Quan-Time> should be
[10:48] <nikosgr> ok iam restarting x
[10:48] <nikosgr> ctrl-alt-del ?
[10:48] <ailean> ArdentIce, Va a #ubuntu-es por hablar en espaol :)
[10:48] <Quan-Time> glhf
[10:48] <ArdentIce> gracias
[10:48] <nikosgr> ctrl-alt-backspace ?
[10:48] <Quan-Time> ctrl alt backspace
[10:48] <h0ned> umm....can someone help me to down/up grade my distro (or gcc - whichever's appropriate) so that the compiler versions match one another?
[10:48] <nikosgr> ok
[10:49] <Quan-Time> then "startx"
[10:49] <Quan-Time> in term
[10:49] <Quan-Time> shoulda told him to install bitchX incase somethin goes wrong
[10:49] <Quan-Time> such is life really
[10:49] <highvoltage> which preseed option is there to disable the HTTP proxy information question in d-i?
[10:49] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: lol, just wait and see. If it fails he has something to shout about :)

[10:51] <KenSentMe> woohoo
[10:52] <Quan-Time> it will only change to what you allow

[10:52] <ailean> Alex_BO, I don't know
[10:52] <Quan-Time> you can put taht in there, and it will find active resolutions.. go to the monitor manufacturer home page, and get exact specs. works a charm

[11:38] <polpak> ~pastebin
[11:38] <polpak> !pastebin
[11:38] <ubotu> pastebin is probably http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[11:38] <Blaze85> lol

[11:41] <Blaze85> eggzeck, THANK YOU VERY MUCH

[12:02] <brotherJohn1234> saaida: does apt-get -f install fixed your dep.  ?
[12:02] <saaida> it removed the opera which it failed to install at first place .
[12:02] <jivah> can someone advise me a good anti-viris for my ubuntu 5.10
[12:02] <sn00p> It says /dev/hdb is already mounted where can I find out where its mounted
[12:02] <dli> jivah, why do you want that?
[12:03] <ocult> ubuntu precisa algum tipo de atualizacao
[12:03] <ocult> sorry
[12:03] <dli> sn00p, type "mount" without option
[12:03] <ocult> ubuntu need some atualization.. or compile kernel ?
[12:03] <ocult> or its automatic.. ?
[12:03] <joachim-n> dli, ctrl-shift-i has no effect. i assume the inspector isn't installed by default
[12:03] <saaida> brotherJohn1234 :  it removed the opera which it failed to install at first place .
[12:03] <dli> joachim-n, is that a feature of ff-1.5 ?
[12:03] <jivah> dli, well i ve just installed ubuntu and i don't know if an anti virus is needed, like in windows,
[12:04] <joachim-n> dli, no it's been around for ages
[12:04] <joachim-n> on windows you have to choose it as an option when you install
[12:04] <sn00p> dli: I cant find the devie     in there but when I try to mount it it says busy or mount ed already still
[12:04] <brotherJohn1234> saaida: can you install xlib6g ( apt-get install xlib6g) ?
[12:04] <dli> jivah, then, you don't need it, we still don't know a virus for ubuntu
[12:04] <sn00p> or any linux
[12:04] <sn00p> lol
[12:05] <dli> jivah, no virus, no spyware, just enjoy
[12:05] <toni321> Lol i have damnsmalllinux
[12:05] <toni321> 50mb only
[12:05] <sn00p> dli: any idea?
[12:05] <dli> jivah, also, you can keep it running for months without having to reboot
[12:05] <mianiak> famous last words
[12:06] <saaida> Package xlib6g is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[12:06] <saaida> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

[12:06] <sn00p> dli: how dyou mount a windows drive?
[12:06] <dli> joachim-n, sorry, I'm not running ubuntu myself
[12:07] <mianiak> sn00p, do you mean, a windows partition ?

[12:08] <mianiak> sn00p, i dont know, i want to have a partition on my drive so i can acces files from each os on dual boot myself
[12:08] <dli> jivah, I think ubuntu would appreciate trouble makers, through whom ubuntu can evolve
[12:08] <jivah> dli, well it's just that i was born with windows and it's hard to get used with linux
[12:08] <sn00p> dli: how do you mount a windows partition?
[12:08] <joachim-n> trouble makers?
[12:08] <iBalo> !mountwindows
[12:08] <ubotu> Download and run http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter to make your windows or mac partitions mount automatically.  If you wish to set it up yourself by hand, read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[12:09] <dli> jivah, yes, ubuntu provides menu for you to click
[12:09] <dli> joachim-n, who can turn ubuntu into a nightmare
[12:09] <jivah> dli, lol

[12:09] <zakmc> where do i change the interface font of gtk-1 apps in ubuntu 5.10
[12:10] <mianiak> dli, will mounting a windows partition on ubuntu destroy the whole drive? y i ask is cause i killed my usb stick but writing files onto it from ubuntu, it wont load in windows now but it will in ubuntu
[12:10] <dli> mianiak, is it ntfs?
[12:10] <mianiak> dli, most winxp is ntfs
[12:10] <KenSentMe> mianiak: mount doesn't do anything to the disk/partition
[12:11] <mianiak> dli, but i dotn know what the usp was
[12:11] <mianiak> er usb
[12:11] <dli> mianiak, sorry, you should not write to ntfs using linux, because ntfs is a closed format
[12:11] <KenSentMe> mianiak: it only connects the drive to your ubuntu OS
[12:11] <brotherJohn1234> saaida: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser    -- see the link http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xorg/xlibs_6.8.2-77_all.deb
[12:11] <mianiak> dli, ahh ok, i just wanted to make sure sn00p diddnt kill his hard drive this way
[12:11] <brotherJohn1234> saaida: perhaps it helps.
[12:11] <sn00p> oh yea

[12:12] <dli> mianiak, no, he is quite an experienced user, I can see
[12:12] <mianiak> :)
[12:12] <sn00p> mianiak: how come mount -t ntfs doesn't work?
[12:13] <dli> sn00p, fdisk -l /dev/blah , to find out why

[12:16] <Quan-Time> anyone here use cedega 5.1 ?
[12:16] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: yeah me
[12:17] <spliff> can anyone tell me why random letters in yellow boxes seem to appear in konqueror?
[12:17] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: but i'm on dapper at the moment
[12:17] <Quan-Time> im on dapper aswell :)
[12:17] <Quan-Time> excellent
[12:17] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: but i don't use cedega very often
[12:18] <Quan-Time> when i try to install it, i get a "dependancy is not satisfiable: xlibs"
[12:18] <Quan-Time> so just install them via synaptic should solve it ?
[12:18] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: had that problem too
[12:18] <KenSentMe> wait
[12:18] <mwh_> dli, thanks for your answer, this in my /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf fixes my problem:         supersede domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
[12:19] <Hexidigital> good morning everyone
[12:19] <dli> mwh_, great, can you pastebin your dhclient.conf ?
[12:19] <dli> mwh_, however, I think using dhcpcd might be easier
[12:20] <saaida> WARNING: /user/lib is not a directory.
[12:20] <saaida> how come it is not
[12:20] <brotherJohn1234> saaida: its typed "/usr/lib" :)
[12:21] <saaida> lol
[12:21] <mwh_> dli, its the default dhclient.conf file .. just with that line added
[12:21] <saaida> damn
[12:21] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: look at http://transgaming.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5503 and read the reply from artificial intelligence
[12:21] <brotherJohn1234> saaida: watch out fat thumbs :)
[12:21] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: it worked for me
[12:21] <mwh_> dli, anyways its a bug .. should be able to configure this from the gui .. like in windows and mac os x

[12:22] <mwh_> dli, vale ... I use windows now and then .. and I have helped some friends on mac os x as well ...

[12:24] <Hanji> I recently installed ubuntu linux and when attempting to start it up it stops at hotplug subsystem. I have tried CTRL + C to cancel it but I is completely frozen at that point
[12:25] <chesty> anyone use /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/ with networkmanager? they don't seem run for me under networkmanager, but run fine otherwise
[12:25] <chesty> ie dhclient eth0 will run them fine
[12:25] <zakmc> !gtk1
[12:25] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, zakmc
[12:25] <dli> Hanji, that's bad :( you can remove the hotplug link in your rc folder
[12:26] <Hanji> ah well... cheers
[12:27] <zakmc> where do i change the interface font of gtk-1 apps in ubuntu 5.10?
[12:28] <cornernote_> hello, has anyone had issues with fonts not diaplaying in flashplayer ?
[12:28] <cornernote_> i am desperate for a solution :S
[12:28] <eggzeck> cornernote_, yes, msttcorefonts
[12:28] <cornernote_> i have msttcorefonts
[12:28] <cornernote_> still no joy
[12:28] <nandemonai> wow, I gotta say, dapper is pretty nice.. even for a beta
[12:28] <eggzeck> cornernote_, did you 'sudo fc-cache -v' ? then restart mozilla
[12:29] <cornernote_> i have gsfonts and gsfonts-x11
[12:29] <eggzeck> ...
[12:29] <cornernote_> havent tried that
[12:29] <cornernote_> will do now
[12:30] <cornernote_> still nothing :(
[12:31] <Marson> how do I install the officel driver from nvidia.com on ubuntu dapper drake? anyone have a guide?
[12:31] <cornernote_> any other ideas eggzeck ?
[12:31] <eggzeck> Marson, dapper questions in #ubuntu+1
[12:32] <Marson> ohhh.. ty
[12:32] <dli> eggzeck, but it's the same on dapper or on breezy
[12:33] <Quan-Time> KenSentMe, you use nonfree cedega or free trial ?
[12:33] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: non free i think
[12:33] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: i've paid for it
[12:33] <Quan-Time> oh gotcha...
[12:33] <Quan-Time> i think i need to signup to forums to make this thing work then. >_<
[12:33] <Quan-Time> which sucks
[12:33] <eggzeck> cornernote_, did you install 'flashplayer-mozilla'?
[12:33] <Quan-Time> but i guess it DOES support them
[12:34] <cvxb> www.nextpicturez.com
[12:34] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: i can copy paste the forum post for you
[12:34] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: one moment
[12:34] <cvxb> www.nextpicturez.com
[12:34] <Quan-Time> nah, i got it working,, installing cedega needs user / pass from forums
[12:34] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: ah, ok
[12:34] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: that's right, u need to have an account
[12:34] <Quan-Time> obviously so it can say "you have already tried this before, you cant use it again, pay you scum "
[12:34] <cvxb> www.nextpicturez.com
[12:34] <Quan-Time> or sometihn to that effect
[12:34] <xbox_sky> cvxb = spamer
[12:35] <estradin> hi, i'm wondering if a matrox G450 will be able to run Xgl
[12:35] <eggzeck> cornernote_, ?
[12:35] <estradin> anybody has any information?
[12:35] <cvxb> www.nextpicturez.com
[12:35] <Quan-Time> im thinkin i might aswell just pay for the bloody thing
[12:35] <xbox_sky> thanks
[12:35] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: what games do u play?
[12:36] <[Wiebel] > hi :)
[12:36] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: i haven't gamed much using cedega
[12:36] <[Wiebel] > anyone here tried ubuntu on a dell latitude d820 by any chance ?
[12:36] <mjr> estradin, that should be supported by dri for 3d acceleration, so I would _believe_ so, though it won't probably be able to run accelerated 3d applications or windowed xvideo (full-screen xvideo should work nowadays)
[12:37] <estradin> thank you, mjr , i don't use that kind of apps anyway
[12:37] <dli> [Wiebel] , just ask your questions
[12:37] <[Wiebel] > dli: there is no question
[12:37] <[Wiebel] > i'm thinking of buying one
[12:38] <Quan-Time> KenSentMe, generals zero hour
[12:38] <Quan-Time> which i really want
[12:38] <Quan-Time> but basically, its the only way i know of making it work
[12:38] <estradin> bye
[12:38] <KenSentMe> Quan-Time: i'm waiting for support for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
[12:38] <deefzi> what should be the location of the directory of C header files when i have self-compiled kernel?
[12:39] <dli> deefzi, just use the kernel-source folder
[12:39] <Quan-Time> KenSentMe, should be fairly fast i would think, as many ppl are getting into it
[12:39] <Quan-Time> oh, also want steam (css / dods) to work
[12:39] <Dark-Night> that would be great
[12:40] <deefzi> dli, uhm, wonder why it rejected... :p
[12:40] <dli> deefzi, you can "cd /usr/src; ln -s linux-#.#.## linux"
[12:40] <dli> deefzi, you have to first compile your kernel
[12:41] <deefzi> dli, duh, it's compiled :p
[12:41] <deefzi> dli, my /usr/src is empty
[12:41] <Dark-Night> where can i get the 'sources.list' from for 5.04
[12:41] <deefzi> dli, wait.. perhaps i shouldn't have done make clean? :(
[12:41] <cornernote_> eggzeck - if your still here... yes - i have tried flashplayer-mozilla and installing FF from source
[12:42] <dli> deefzi, that's why, follow the howto, you should put your kernel source folder under /usr/src , and make a symbolic link from it to "linux"
[12:42] <hartz> Slow...
[12:42] <dli> deefzi, no, no point in make clean
[12:42] <CokeNCode> hey, good morning everyone. Can anyone tell me the command to delete a directory and all of its contents ?
[12:43] <Dark-Night> what about something like del -all
[12:43] <dli> deefzi, you should use kernel-package
[12:43] <sn00p> Hey is there anyway to convert a .avi file that sin foreign language to english?
[12:43] <sn00p> using mplayer
[12:43] <lsuactiafner> what time will dapper be released today?
[12:43] <Howitzer> sn00p, you mean like Japanese spoken to English spoken? Oo
[12:44] <CokeNCode> is del a linux command?
[12:44] <sn00p> Howitzer: i'm not sure what language it is in
[12:44] <dli> Howitzer, haha
[12:44] <Dark-Night> i dont think so
[12:44] <deefzi> dli, hmm, perhaps i didn't. but anyways, gonna compile it all over again. no harm done.
[12:44] <Howitzer> sn00p, eh, i know you can change subtitles, but changing the language? Oo
[12:44] <sn00p> other words i'm screwed?
[12:44] <deefzi> dli, what's a kernel-package? a pre-compiled stock-kernel?
[12:45] <Dark-Night> where can i get the 'sources.list' from for 5.04
[12:45] <dli> deefzi, no, read kernel-package howto, basically, instead of "make', you do "make-kpkg"
[12:45] <dli> deefzi, and it compile the kernel, and make a .deb
[12:46] <Howitzer> sn00p, you kind of are
[12:46] <Howitzer> unless you find subtitles to go with the movie
[12:46] <CokeNCode> what is with this whole ##moved thing on freenode ?
[12:47] <ailean> can someone point me to a page so that I can set up my sound properly? I want it to mix properly
[12:47] <deefzi> dli, does ubotu know the url to kernel-package how-to?
[12:47] <deefzi> dli, or can it be found from tldp?
[12:47] <dli> deefzi, since you have configured your kernel, mv the folder to under /usr/src/
[12:48] <dli> deefzi, make the link, and "cd /usr/src/linux; make-kpkg clean;make-kpkg kernel-image"
[12:49] <dli> deefzi, then, make-kpkg would generate a linux-image-*.deb in /usr/src/ , installing that deb will install the kernel compiled
[12:49] <deefzi> dli, uhm, i would like to read how-to. i have no idea what i would be doing at the point
[12:49] <cornernote_> can anyone help me with a flashplayer problem?  my flash does not show any text.. i have installed msttcorefonts, gsfonts and gsfonts-x11
[12:49] <deefzi> dli, i have my kernel up and running, i'm just installing vmware for it atm
[12:49] <dli> deefzi, ask about kernel-package in #debian
[12:50] <deefzi> dli, it needs kernel-headers for compiling couple modules which i succesfully did for couple nvidia-drivers, i have no idea why it's nagging about something now
[12:50] <deefzi> dli, anyway. ty.
[12:50] <xerophyte> if i wanna configrue network card using ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.0  on boot how can i edit /etc/network/interface file  .. i mean what will be the format iface ???
[12:50] <mbuf> trying to compile klavaro-0.97 on ubuntu dapper beta, get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13194 what do i set the ENV to?
[12:53] <mbuf> i have to install automake tools first
[12:53] <Howitzer> what does automake do actually?
[12:53] <Howitzer> just compile and convert to .deb?
[12:56] <sn00p> I use mlb.tv and it uses the windows media player to play streams does anybody know how I can convert it to something else using firefox in linux?
[12:57] <MisterN> hi
[01:01] <flybird081> ubuntu ,i like it
[01:02] <rane_> what bittorrent client do you user
[01:02] <sn00p> there has to be a way to change firefox default media player to mplayer
[01:03] <rane_> what bittorrent client do you use?
[01:04] <rane_> !firestarter
[01:04] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
[01:05] <brownie17> who knows why when i type "sudo shutdown now" it goes into like maintennance mode? i thought it was just suppossed to shut down
[01:06] <brownie17> does anyone know any commands to shutdown other than shutdown now? what is the command to change runlevels?
[01:06] <flybird081> i think linux kernel is the best thing in the world,and ubuntu used it in a medl lsotl
[01:06] <dli> flybird081, I like the hurd kernel better
[01:06] <sam_> would anyone be so kind as to help me set up gcc for breezy? first time linux user and i'm struggling a bit
[01:07] <dli> sam_, just ask your questions
[01:07] <flybird081> hurd kernel?
[01:07] <_jason> ubotu: tell sn00p about replacetotem
[01:08] <sam_> i've managed to install gcc, but when i try to #include stdio.h it says no such file or directory
[01:08] <dli> flybird081, http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd.html
[01:09] <avinoam> Is dapper safe to use on my home pc?
[01:09] <dli> sam_, #include<stdio.h> ?
[01:09] <sam_> yep
[01:09] <mirak> when I install the kernel sources, how can I know which kernel revision version it matches ?
[01:09] <sam_> i did it with the correct syntax, but apparently the library isnt installed or some such
[01:09] <bimberi> sam_: 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'  will bring in c libraries
[01:09] <brownie17> !marvin
[01:09] <ubotu> I have this terrible pain in my diodes, brownie17. Brain the size of a planet, and you want to use me to !lart people?

[01:14] <sam_> bash: helloworld: command not found
[01:14] <sam_>  is the error i'm getting
[01:14] <dli> sam_, never say "doesn't work", be more specific, show the error message, etc
[01:14] <bimberi> sam_: ./helloworld   ?
[01:14] <sam_> ah, cheers
[01:15] <sn00p> _jason: did you get my last error?

[01:21] <sn00p> _Jason : the flash and sound is working for me but when you login it open s up a flash windows but it wont play the streams
[01:21] <dli> zivak, why do you change it to vesa? what's your card
[01:21] <sn00p> _jason: I tried cnn.com video and it said totem wasn't able to player that
[01:22] <_jason> sn00p: well you can replace totem with mplayer, did you take a look at the private message from ubotu
[01:22] <zivak> dli - it was on i810 before but that caused an error and said something like UNABLE TO RESTART XSERVER or something
[01:22] <sn00p> I did

[01:23] <dli> zivak, your card is i810 ?
[01:23] <_jason> sn00p: nah, do you really want to remove all of totem or just the plugin?
[01:23] <dli> zivak, I think i810 is well supported, go through dpkg-reconfigure
[01:23] <zivak> i dunno... that's what Ubuntu selected
[01:23] <sn00p> just theplugi

[01:24] <dli> chrismaster, sudo less /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[01:30] <zivak> dli - do you meant to restart computer?
[01:30] <_jason> sn00p: on your previous pastebin you did mozilla instead of mozilla-firefox.  Did you do the same thing with the rm command?
[01:31] <sn00p> ?
[01:31] <_jason> sn00p: 'sudo rm /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libtotem*'

[01:33] <dli> sn00p, to close all firefox instances, "sudo killall -9 firefox-bin"
[01:33] <_jason> why kill -9?
[01:33] <_jason> that's like murder :P
[01:33] <sn00p> _jason: when I click on the link at mlb.tv to play the stream I see something flicker its trying to play it

[01:41] <zivak> dli - it's me again with that video card problem. it says - failed to start x server (your graphical interface) so i'm on prompt
[01:41] <CaNsA> cheers
[01:42] <ayabara> what happens if I disable a disk in the Disks Manager? I just don't see it in Ubuntu anymore?
[01:42] <voraistos> zivak: what is your card ?
[01:42] <_jason> sn00p: try getting a direct link (usually you can right click and copy url), but it could just be they aren't nix friendly in their code
[01:42] <zivak> Intel Graphic Graphics Media Accelerator 950
[01:42] <voraistos> u are not lucky
[01:42] <sn00p> _jason: they arent
[01:42] <voraistos> do u have resolution problems ?
[01:42] <dli> zivak, that's not i810
[01:43] <zivak> dli, lol.. silly me... oh what is it then?
[01:43] <sn00p> _jason: yea mozilla just crashed
[01:43] <[Wiebel] > where can i Find 915resolution for breezy?
[01:43] <dli> zivak, it's called intel GMA 950
[01:43] <zivak> dli - what's the command to reconfigure it?
[01:44] <deefzi> are kernel header-files tagged with suffix .h?
[01:44] <voraistos> dpkg something reconfigure
[01:44] <zivak> sudo dpkg-reconfigure ---?
[01:44] <voraistos> yea
[01:44] <zivak> i need ---
[01:44] <voraistos> xserver-xorg
[01:44] <ayabara> installing vlc for the first time. is it wxvlc I want?
[01:44] <voraistos> i think
[01:44] <brotherJohn1234> ayabara, jepp.
[01:44] <ayabara> thanks
[01:45] <loki> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13197
[01:45] <loki> anyone help?
[01:45] <_jason> ayabara: just 'vlc' will pull that in.  Make sure you install a sound plugin as well
[01:45] <zivak> dli - there's no Intel GMA 950 in the list when asking to select the desired x server driver
[01:46] <ayabara> _jason: won't it work out of the box?
[01:46] <voraistos> zivak: try to go on intel website, they should have some rpm drivers
[01:46] <sn00p> _jason: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13199
[01:46] <zivak> oh ok good idea
[01:46] <dli> zivak, http://klepas.org/2006/04/09/ubuntu-on-the-inspiron-6400/
[01:46] <ayabara> !easy
[01:46] <zivak> dli - i'm using HP DV1000t
[01:46] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ayabara
[01:46] <_jason> ayabara: try just isntallign vlc.  But if you need it to use alsa or esd, you then need to get the plugin: vlc-plugin-alsa or vlc-plugin-esd
[01:46] <zivak> dli - nm... it's similar problem anyway
[01:47] <_jason> ayabara: that's what I had to do, it may pull it in for you automatically
[01:47] <ayabara> _jason: ok. the sound and video device setup is one of the things I haven't understood yet
[01:47] <pascal80> Is anybody able to change the network connection speed in totem
[01:47] <ayabara> _jason: what to choose in the multimedia systems selector, I mean
[01:48] <Boglizk> how do i GZIP a directory in the Terminal? I keep getting the message: "gzip: web is a directory -- ignored".
[01:48] <pascal80> When trying to do this totem always crashes
[01:48] <_jason> ayabara: esd is default.  I think alsa is better if it works for you
[01:48] <loki> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13197
[01:48] <ayabara> _jason: for both sink and source?
[01:48] <marcin`> hi #ubuntu
[01:49] <CaNsA> well i have officially fuked my laptop :)
[01:49] <kumar> how to solve
[01:49] <voraistos> does anyone know a good adress for gnome moding/repair etc ???
[01:49] <_jason> ayabara: I don't really mess with source since I don't use it
[01:49] <marcin`> I just bought Soundblaster Audigy SE card and I got a problem with this device on Ubuntu Dapper Beta
[01:49] <cafuego> Yuck! We don't want to know that!
[01:49] <kumar> how to solve this problem " Malformed line 29 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)"
[01:49] <_jason> ubotu: tell kumar about easysource
[01:49] <muraii> Hi, folks.
[01:50] <ayabara> _jason: then I probably won't either :-) you have a tip on video settings most likely to work too?
[01:50] <marcin`> this card uses CA0106 driver and it works but only partially - I can hear sound in front speakers only but not in rear and central
[01:50] <_jason> ayabara: mplayer with w32codecs plays everything I throw at it.  xine and vlc are good too
[01:50] <muraii> Anyone know how to list the drivers currently loaded?  I have a laptop with an operable Synaptics touchpad that isn't, well, operating.
[01:50] <marcin`> could someone help to configure this hardware to work properly (if this is possible of course)
[01:50] <loki> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13197
[01:50] <kumar>  i am not able to solve it
[01:50] <_jason> kumar: make a new sources.list using the page ubotu gave you, and replace your current one
[01:51] <voraistos> kumar: show your line
[01:51] <muraii> I've done all the Xorg setup, referenced the correct device and driver and everything.
[01:51] <pascal80> Hello, is anybody able to change network connection speed in Totem. Mine always crashes when trying to do this.
[01:51] <kumar> sudo apt-get update
[01:51] <ayabara> _jason: ok. thought I'd try Easy Ubuntu now. Video sink is set to XWindows (X11/Xshm/Xv). That ok?
[01:51] <kumar> after this line the following problem occur
[01:51] <_jason> ayabara: have you installed your video card's drivers?
[01:52] <voraistos> kumar: no, the line 29
[01:52] <kumar> Malformed line 29 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)
[01:52] <Boglizk> How do i GZIP a directory in the Terminal? I keep getting the message: "gzip: web is a directory -- ignored".
[01:52] <ayabara> _jason: no, I was hoping Easy Ubuntu would fix that for me in a minute
[01:52] <kumar> ok wait
[01:52] <pascal80> Nobody?
[01:52] <gnomefreak> kumar: theres something in that line of your /etc/apt/sources.list that is not right
[01:52] <_jason> ayabara: ok, personally, I would do video drivers manually and trust easyubuntu to the codec installs and stuff
[01:53] <sladen> Boglizk: you don't.  you use tar to package a direct and then gzip that.    tar zcvf foo.tar.gz directory/
[01:53] <Boglizk> oh
[01:53] <kumar> if i put /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:53] <Boglizk> k
[01:53] <gnomefreak> sladen: you can use gzip to zip a file
[01:53] <ayabara> _jason: ok. I'll take your advice
[01:53] <_jason> ayabara: what card do you have?
[01:53] <kumar> following line show the problem
[01:53] <zivak> dli - sorry... but i just downloaded 915 resolution tar.gz file and then how do i install it?
[01:53] <voraistos> kumar: gedit /etc/apt/sources.list  and then paste it on the dutch thing
[01:53] <sladen> gnomefreak: Boglizk was asking about about "a directory"
[01:54] <gnomefreak> kumar: please paste you /etc/apt/sources.list file to pastebin
[01:54] <ayabara> _jason: ati radeon 9700 (dell inspiron 6000)
[01:54] <_jason> ubotu: tell ayabara about ati
[01:54] <kumar> ok i try it
[01:54] <sladen> zivak: please using the .deb's
[01:54] <sladen> zivak: sudo apt-get install  915resolution
[01:54] <Steve^> what can I use to compare two files quickly?
[01:54] <Steve^> (text files)
[01:55] <_jason> Steve^: diff
[01:55] <dli> slackern, I think you need the newest version :(
[01:55] <zivak> sladen - it said "couldn't find package 915resolution"
[01:55] <ayabara> _jason: thanks! will I have to edit the easy ubuntu script to make it leave my video driver alone?
[01:55] <pascal80> Is anybody able to change network connection speed in Totem media player's Preferences?
[01:55] <[Wiebel] > Anyone with an intel 945GM graphics card here who got it working with ubuntu-breezy?
[01:55] <_jason> ayabara: no, easyubuntu gives you check boxes
[01:55] <[Wiebel] > the i810 driver in xorg.conf won't do it for me
[01:55] <voraistos> zivak: check your repositories

[02:02] <pascal80> voraistos: what other app to use then for playing videos
[02:02] <kv250> hello, how can you make cvs pserver accept incoming connections?
[02:02] <Mikaeln> _jason, that worked better..
[02:02] <Mikaeln> better=good! =)
[02:02] <_jason> Mikaeln: you sure there were no typos/you used the right file location before?
[02:03] <[Wiebel] > dli: I did
[02:03] <[Wiebel] > no go
[02:04] <LordFalcon> I havent found one good native free MMORPG game for linux ! : (
[02:04] <Mikaeln> _jason, strange... It works now, without the switch.. but with the config-file i guess.. =)
[02:04] <Mikaeln> _jason, although, I don't care why it works... as long as it works.. Thnx =)
[02:04] <_jason> Mikaeln: k, great
[02:05] <LordFalcon> is there a game I should try ? (RPG or MMORPG )
[02:05] <voraistos> planet penguin racer
[02:06] <voraistos> it is just stupid but fun
[02:06] <LordFalcon> voraistos: I hate that game :P
[02:06] <voraistos> lol
[02:06] <voraistos> i dunno any rpg for linux
[02:07] <CokeNCode> penguin racer rocks !
[02:07] <ayabara> I get "aticonfig: error while loading shared libraries: libfglrx_pp.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:07] <ayabara> " when I run aticonfig --initial. anyone know what is missing?
[02:07] <voraistos> hey, any good adress for gnome repairs/tweaks ?
[02:07] <LordFalcon> so there is only crappy low graphic games for linux then ?
[02:07] <gnomefreak> !games
[02:07] <ubotu> games is, like, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5153 or http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Loki_Installers_for_Linux_Gamers  News http://www.linux-gamers.net/
[02:08] <mejobloggs> ok, i have no idea what im doing. i tried doing startx, end i got all the garbled screen again. How do i go back to command line?
[02:09] <_jason> ayabara: are you following the wiki?
[02:09] <zmo> ayabara: install xorg-driver-fglrx first
[02:09] <mejobloggs> and i think i just screwed my config up by running that auto thing in the how to
[02:10] <doms> how to install install.py
[02:10] <ayabara> _jason: following the wiki, but it was a little outdated I think. ati's pages says "note:`fglrxconfig` is no longer provided with the ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Installer. " think this screws up some of the final steps
[02:10] <ayabara> zmo: I'm on it
[02:11] <_jason> ayabara: you could use the ubuntu drivers
[02:13] <ayabara> _jason: got no error messages after "apt-get install -f" no idea why... how can I check if it worked?
[02:13] <mejobloggs> where do i find the repository settings file?
[02:13] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: to make changes to repos the file is /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:14] <_jason> ayabara: just be sure to do all the steps.  The ultimate test would be to restart X and see if it starts :)
[02:15] <abk> hello friends. Can someone help me use the admin programs in 5.10 using the GUI.
[02:15] <abk> I keep getting the Wrong password dialog box though the same password works for root
[02:15] <ubuntu> hulu
[02:16] <ocult> ?
[02:16] <ocult> what fuck was that ?
[02:16] <_jason> abk: did you do an expert install?
[02:16] <_jason> !language
[02:16] <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.
[02:16] <abk> yes. i did jason
[02:16] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: what do i have to do to that file to be able to get nvidia driver?
[02:17] <abk> the language is english US. Country is India
[02:17] <_jason> abk: the password it is asking for is your user's.  However, with an expert install the user is not put in the admin group.  ubotu will send you a one-liner
[02:17] <ayabara> _jason: emm. how do I restart X?
[02:17] <_jason> ubotu: tell abk about expert
[02:17] <_jason> ayabara: ctrl-alt-backspace
[02:17] <_jason> ayabara: save what you are working on first
[02:17] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: the howto is all for using a gui, but im stuck in commant line
[02:17] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell mejobloggs about nvidia
[02:18] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: the wiki is either cli or gui
[02:18] <mejobloggs> not for this
[02:18] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: most of the wiki is cli based anyway
[02:18] <iBalo> Here's one for the experts: I got 512M of RAM and usually i have /tmp mounted to tmpfs. with the the defaultt options, this yields 252M of space in /tmp. For DVD-burning and watching timeshift-TV now the need arises for  ~5GB capacity. Would i be able to size my swap-space, say, 6GB  and mount /tmp with the size=4096M option ? Is the kernels VM-Manager looking after that or will i run out of...
[02:18] <iBalo> ...(physical) RAM when e.g. copying a DVD?
[02:18] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: are you on breezy?
[02:18] <mejobloggs> dunno, i downloaded it the other day
[02:18] <mejobloggs> 5.10 i think
[02:18] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings nvidia-glx
[02:18] <abk> actually i edited sudoers
[02:19] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: type the above command in cli
[02:19] <ocult> please
[02:19] <ocult> why dont have channel in japanese ?
[02:19] <_jason> abk: k, you just added your user directly in there?
[02:19] <ocult> dont have ubuntu here ?
[02:19] <ocult> =(
[02:19] <ayabara> _jason: it restarted fine :-)
[02:19] <gnomefreak> !ja
[02:19] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, gnomefreak
[02:19] <abk> Jason: I edited sudoers and added the line %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL as was discussed online
[02:19] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: when it is finished, can i just type startx ?
[02:20] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: no
[02:20] <_jason> ayabara: k, as long as xorg.conf is using fglrx (or however it is spelled) you should be set
[02:20] <abk> I added a new user as a system user too from the terminal
[02:20] <zivak> which of you gave me a link for french site to fix the resolution problem?
[02:20] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: ill get you through this dont worry ;)
[02:20] <_jason> abk: and did you create the admin system group if it doesn't exist already?
[02:20] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: cheeeers
[02:20] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell zivak about fixres
[02:21] <abk> Jason: I had to edit passwd and set the false to bash for the new user to be able to login from the new user.
[02:21] <_jason> abk: why did you add a system user?
[02:21] <zivak> i'm beginning to feel discouraged :(
[02:21] <_jason> abk: as opposed to a normal user
[02:21] <gnomefreak> zivak: why the page you asked for is in your pm
[02:22] <abk> Jason: I just created the user. Not for any particular reason.
[02:22] <mejobloggs> i did the first step in fixres. It said it was an autoconfig, but it wasnt really auto. There where so money complicated questions that I new nothing about. I just went yes, yes, yes, yes. So i hope i havnt screwed anything
[02:22] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: ok, finished installing
[02:22] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: what arch are you using?
[02:22] <mejobloggs> no idea
[02:22] <abk> Jason: I donot know what u mean be creating a admin group
[02:22] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: whats an arch?
[02:23] <_jason> abk: 'getent group admin' <-- what does that return?
[02:23] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: what does uname -r say if typed in terminal?
[02:23] <mejobloggs> 2.6.12-9-amd64-generic
[02:23] <abk> Jason: actually I am logged into windows as Ubuntu is not letting me access internet
[02:23] <ayabara> _jason: Section "Device"
[02:23] <ayabara>  , Identifier  "ATI Graphics Adapter 0"
[02:23] <ayabara>  , Driver  "fglrx". Guess that means it's ok. thanks for helping
[02:23] <voraistos> hey, how do i download a .run with firefox? (of course, i dont wanna open it in the browser)
[02:24] <_jason> ayabara: yep, np
[02:24] <wang> sa
[02:24] <abk> Jason: I only have a lo adapter configured and am not able to configure any other network connection.
[02:24] <selinium> Any compiling gurus about, I am trying to compile/install an app but it only installs the /doc stuff....
[02:24] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: sorry, should i have actually have talked to you?
[02:24] <wang> hello
[02:24] <selinium> hi _jason :)
[02:24] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: 2.6.12-9-amd64-generic
[02:24] <gnomefreak> _jason: lol what restricted modes package work with the amd64-generic kernel?
[02:24] <abk> Jason: su in terminal with dhclient lets me ping the websites using the IP alone. Not DNS.
[02:24] <_jason> gnomefreak: replace 386 with amd64-generic
[02:25] <gnomefreak> k
[02:25] <_jason> gnomefreak: lol
[02:25] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-amd64-generic
[02:25] <doms> creative vista pro webcam  who knows how it works?
[02:25] <gnomefreak> i hope ;)
[02:25] <wang> hello, who know how to add a root user in ubuntu?
[02:26] <gnomefreak> wang: why not leave sudo the way it is?
[02:26] <selinium> wang, why would you want to?
[02:26] <abk> jason: I just checked into the group file in the etc folder. there is only a lpadmin listed there. there is nothing else as admin
[02:26] <doms> creative vista pro webcam  who knows how it works?
[02:26] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: please tell me if its downloading something?
[02:26] <wang> thank you gnoefreak and selinium
[02:26] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: E: invalid operation install
[02:26] <_jason> abk: well for your sudo problem.  If the admin group is not listed in /etc/passwd, you have to create it with 'addgroup --system admin' and then add your normal user account to that group with 'adduser your_normal_username admin'
[02:26] <thamara> mond houden
[02:26] <_jason> abk: meant to say /etc/group not passwd, but it seems you got it already
[02:27] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-amd64-generic
[02:27] <gnomefreak> install should _not_ be invalid :(
[02:27] <mejobloggs> ah, k, this time it worked
[02:28] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: is it downloading it?
[02:28] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: yeah
[02:28] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: good brb
[02:28] <abk> Jason: Is that all is required? will it help to work the administrative programs under system tab?
[02:28] <doms> creative vista pro webcam  who knows how it works?
[02:28] <_jason> abk: that should be all that is needed
[02:28] <selinium> wang, the ifon you need can be found here http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo. But you make you system insecure by using a root passwd.
[02:28] <_jason> abk: since you already added the admin group to sudoers
[02:28] <selinium> s/ifon/info
[02:28] <iBalo> selinium: you make your system insecure by NOT using a root password....
[02:29] <wang> thank you selinium
[02:29] <selinium> iBalo, if the root has no password, no-one can use it....
[02:29] <wang> I just want to act as a root user when my system goes wrong
[02:29] <abk> Jason: thank you
[02:29] <_jason> abk: np
[02:29] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: done
[02:30] <selinium> wang, then use sudo,    you can sudo su to take permanent control for that session..
[02:30] <ayabara> I get a bunch of warnings/errors running easy ubuntu "(synaptic:21140): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure: assertion `gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure (accel_closure) != NULL' failed
[02:30] <ayabara> "
[02:30] <iBalo> The problem is: whoever has your user-password can use sudo -s (1. so no more history logging) and has root acces... :-(
[02:30] <wang> you see, I modified host file under etc dict. without a root user, you can not access the host even in sudo command
[02:30] <devilcloud> anyone here usually use Xfce ?
[02:30] <avinoam> devil i'm on xfce now
[02:30] <selinium> iBalo, true :)
[02:31] <devilcloud> could i ask a question ?
[02:31] <avinoam> devilcloud, you could, but that doesn't mean that i'll be able to answer it
[02:31] <iBalo> so a root password is a second line of defence
[02:31] <devilcloud> ok :D
[02:31] <selinium> wang, for those kinds of situations, it is beeter to have a live cd knocking around..
[02:31] <wang> when you want to edit the hosts file, you are told you have no permission. when you try sudo, says that cannot find the hosts.
[02:31] <devilcloud> how can i mod the xfce4-panel theme ?
[02:32] <devilcloud> i have xfce 4.2.2
[02:32] <mikl> How do you enable GD for Apache/PHP?
[02:32] <wang> thank you selinium. But I fixed my problem in recovery mode
[02:32] <avinoam> devilcloud, did you look in settings?
[02:32] <selinium> wang, also when you boot go into grub and choose the rescue option/
[02:32] <selinium> lol
[02:32] <devilcloud> yes
[02:32] <selinium> Wang, too slow typing...
[02:32] <selinium> :)
[02:32] <devilcloud> there is only the position
[02:32] <devilcloud> of the panel
[02:32] <wang> yes, exactly, selinium
[02:32] <avinoam> is doing a dist-upgrade with backports enabled a bad idea?
[02:32] <wang> sorry for my poor English
[02:32] <avinoam> devilcloud, then i have no idea
[02:33] <devilcloud> :/
[02:33] <selinium> wang, your English is fine! My typing is slow.... :)
[02:33] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: now run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and make sure the card is right the bus id is correct and your using the nvidia drivers in the list of drivers  you might want to when it firsts asks you if you want to auto detect i know if i say no it is correct settings but make sure
[02:33] <wang> no, I can cathe you. ^_^ V
[02:33] <devilcloud> on xfce-look there is a lot of screen with xfce modded
[02:33] <doms> creative vista pro webcam  who knows how it works?
[02:33] <devilcloud> :|
[02:33] <Quan-Time> trying to install generals zero hour.. with cedega. it wont install as it says it cant find a valid generals (1st game) intall.. its there. but its some registry thing it wants i guess. anyone have experience with cedega ?
[02:34] <wang> I was asked to use ubuntu for research actually
[02:34] <avinoam> devilcloud, i'm still wondering where my wine went now that i installed xfce
[02:34] <doms> creative vista pro webcam  who knows how it works?
[02:34] <devilcloud> ok
[02:34] <wang> Do you think ubuntu system is suitable for a server, selinium?
[02:35] <dli> wang ubuntu can be server, but I suggest debian for server and ubuntu for desktop
[02:35] <user1_> salut y a qqn ?
[02:35] <wang> yes, dli, I installed debian on my desktop.
[02:35] <soulfreshner> how do I reinstall my sound....er...everything ?
[02:35] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: for my vidio identifier, is it ok for it to say ..... 6800?]      I have a 6800 GS, so is that why its putting a question mark?
[02:36] <soulfreshner> it stopped working for some reason - and tampering brought me nowhere
[02:36] <gnomefreak> that is fine 6800 is fine
[02:36] <avinoam> i once used vector
[02:36] <dli> wang, if you know debian, you can stay with debian, ubuntu = debian + fancy eye candy
[02:36] <doms> creative vista pro webcam  who knows how it works?
[02:36] <user1_> evey one speak only english here ?
[02:36] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: how on earth do i know the bus identifier? Just use default? I have pci express
[02:36] <wang> But I found there are some things wrong. you see, I am learning in Japan and I am from China. It seems that you can not install a Chinese IME and Japanese IME together.
[02:37] <dli> wang, sudo apt-get install scim
[02:37] <avinoam> user1_, i speak hebrew
[02:37] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: what is it set to right now?
[02:37] <wang> I tried scim, but it does not work under my ubuntu which is Japanese version
[02:37] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: PCI:5:0:0
[02:38] <soulfreshner> how do I fix my sound - where so I start?
[02:38] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: leave it be
[02:38] <user1_> thank avinoa...but i can not speak hebrew
[02:38] <liquiem> i'd like to try out the 6.04 livecd.. are there any pppoe untils on it, can i play mp3s while installing, testing the livecd?
[02:38] <avinoam> user1_, sucks for you
[02:38] <wang> but the same thing will not happen on debian. My debian is a chinese version, japanese and chinese IME can work together
[02:38] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: wow, now what do i do for the rest of the million options?
[02:38] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell soulfreshner about sound
[02:38] <dli> wang, sudo apt-get install scim-chinese scim-tables-ja scim-tables-zh
[02:38] <user1_> sucks for me ? ??? he please be cool
[02:38] <ayabara> easy ubuntu aborts on me, saying "cp: cannot stat `/home/anders/temp/easyubuntu/conf/hdparm.conf': No such file or directory" anyone got any ideas?
[02:39] <nikosgr> where can i find coll gnome desktop themes
[02:39] <nikosgr> ?
[02:39] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: after choosing nvidia just enter for the rest of it
[02:39] <wang> thank you, let me have a try, dear dli
[02:39] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: yes and enter
[02:39] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: cool
[02:39] <zivak> ok - i just followed instruction under "Resolution is not delivered by the vBios" section... it doesn't work :|
[02:39] <wang> you are using Chinese? dli?
[02:39] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: oh, you mean i always chose yes? or always just press enter
[02:39] <zivak> this is a very stubborn problem
[02:39] <bimberi> !tell nikosgr about theme
[02:39] <user1_> somebody can help me about an refresh screen resolution problem ?
[02:39] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: cause now it is asking me if i want framebuffer, and NO is selected
[02:40] <dli> wang, I'm Chinese
[02:40] <doms> creative vista pro webcam  who knows how it works?
[02:40] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: yes you do
[02:40] <nikosgr> i like my gome to be ncie  thanks :)
[02:40] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: yes i do what?
[02:40] <dli> user1_, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:40] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: yes i select yes everytime?
[02:40] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: yes
[02:40] <wang> Duoxie dli
[02:40] <user1_> i v ever tried this commade line but it did not resolv my problem
[02:41] <zivak> is anybody else willing to go thru with me step by step via PM?
[02:41] <user1_> i tried also to change settinge about XF86Configur-4
[02:41] <wang> hope to discuss with you some day, I really like Linux especially debian and ubuntu though I am a beginner
[02:41] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: generic monitor?
[02:41] <deefzi> i'm trying to install vmware's modules, and it pops this message when i try go give the installer the dir. for kernel-headers: The kernel defined by this directory of header files does not have the same
[02:42] <deefzi> address space size as your running kernel.
[02:42] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: i have philips 109b6
[02:42] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: or is generic fine
[02:42] <dli> user1_, XF86Configur-4 ? shouldn't it be /etc/X11/xorg.conf? but you shouldn't modify it manually
[02:42] <orbin> zivak: can't get a higher screen res.?
[02:42] <deefzi> are those headers kernel-specific or compilation-specific (i.e. i have compiled my kernel again but with the same kernel and kernel cfg)
[02:42] <zivak> orbin - nope.... the only way i can get to desktop is using VESA
[02:42] <user1_> dli_my video card is an TRIDENT 9525 DVD PCI/agp
[02:43] <orbin> zivak: what video card do you have?
[02:43] <gnomefreak> generic is fine
[02:43] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: horizontal sync range??
[02:43] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: just enter through it as long as it says something
[02:43] <zivak> orbin - I'm using Intel Graphic Media Accelerator 950 (HP DV1000t laptop)
[02:43] <Doat> I can't ssh to my second comp (running debian) with ethernet IP, but with public IP I can. What could be causing this?
[02:44] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: ok done
[02:44] <nikosgr> bimberi, i instalelds them but cant access them
[02:44] <user1_> mejobloggs_ horiz 50-80
[02:44] <orbin> zivak: what was the original driver xorg set?
[02:44] <mejobloggs> user1_: too late, but thank
[02:44] <zivak> 1024
[02:44] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: startx now?
[02:44] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: now you need to run the enable command if you give me a sec ill find it
[02:44] <user1_> dli_ the XF86Configur fiel is use for my kind of card
[02:45] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: k
[02:45] <nikosgr> can i use ultravnc from ubuntu?
[02:45] <mejobloggs> yes
[02:45] <zivak> orbin - it picked i810
[02:45] <gnomefreak> mejobloggs: sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[02:46] <user1_> zivak_ yes i would like 1024 resolution but it still blocked at 800X600
[02:46] <gnomefreak> after that command try startx
[02:46] <apokryphos> user1_: /msg ubotu fixres
[02:46] <nikosgr> is there vnc embedded in ubuntu?
[02:46] <zivak> user1 - seems like most of people installing ubuntu are having resolution problem =\
[02:46] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: heheh, you rock
[02:46] <orbin> zivak: what happens when you used that one?
[02:46] <Quan-Time> mejobloggs, you just setup yoru monitor im guessing ?
[02:46] <mejobloggs> gnomefreak: ooh, Internal error, failed to initialize HAL
[02:47] <user1_> apokryphos_ connected on root access for thid command ?
[02:47] <zivak> orbin - the error says "failed to start x server (your graphical interface)" so i had to use VESA to get to desktop
[02:47] <stevietool> msg/ join #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:47] <mejobloggs> Quan-Time: ask gnomefreak, hes a genius
[02:47] <apokryphos> user1_: type that in here

[02:50] <WarpedShadow> Everytime I run synaptic it wants to downlaod all the package lists again... how can i stop it doing that
[02:51] <dli> WarpedShadow, it's okay, no need to stop anything

[02:52] <soulfreshner> gnomefreak: checked everything, it looks like sound should work - it just doesn't...is there a way to reinstall all the modules/ drivers relating to sound
[02:52] <dj-fu> jivah: how is your usb drive formatted?
[02:53] <der0b_> is there a way to mount an smb share so that if the server machine (xp) is rebooted or goes offline the mountmount don't stall when I'm mucking about the filesystem?
[02:53] <jivah> ????
[02:53] <soulfreshner> (hopefully by just reinstalling a few packages
[02:53] <soulfreshner> )
[02:53] <WarpedShadow> dli: I cannot afford to download all the package files everytime I want to install one app.
[02:53] <jivah> dj-fu, should i format it
[02:53] <florian> are there open source alternatives for maple?
[02:54] <dli> WarpedShadow, no, you misunderstand apt actions
[02:54] <dj-fu> jivah, it's proably not that. you need to specify the right mount options to give it write access, unless it's NTFS - if it's NTFS, then you're stuffed. readonly.
[02:54] <goon> florian: scilab
[02:54] <orbin> zivak: i'm not familiar w/ 915.  did you try reconfigging xorg w/ the i810 driver?
[02:54] <florian> goon: thanx, i will have a look at it
[02:54] <nikosgr> guys please hwo cna i install a theme?
[02:54] <user1_> where are you based peoples ?
[02:54] <dli> WarpedShadow, apt needs to update package lists from sources.list, before installing anything
[02:54] <zivak> orbin - how do i reconfigure i810 driver?
[02:55] <WarpedShadow> dli, I can't see why it cannot use the file it had yesterday...
[02:55] <dli> WarpedShadow, if no newer list is found, the lists won't be downloaded :(
[02:55] <jivah> dj-fu, oh i understand now, if i want to use my usb key only with linux, do i have a mean to format it in such a way, that i can copy files inside
[02:55] <WarpedShadow> it takes like 15-20 mins for it to update all my package l
[02:55] <dj-fu> jivah: only if you want to use it specifically with linux (i.e; not windows)
[02:55] <dli> WarpedShadow, the list may be updated at any time
[02:56] <soulfreshner> maybe I should just reinstall ubuntu...again - everytime I install it there is some issue with either the sound of graphics
[02:56] <fabian_> algun hispano o latino?
[02:56] <dj-fu> jivah: you can keep it fat32 and have it RW by both windows and linux
[02:56] <jivah> dj-fu, yes
[02:56] <WarpedShadow> it doesn't seem to be saving a ba copy
[02:56] <dj-fu> otherwise yes, you can format it ext3
[02:56] <orbin> zivak: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ... go through the steps, press default if you don't know what to enter, but choose the i810 driver when prompted
[02:56] <orbin> by press default i mean press enter to choose default
[02:56] <zivak> orbin - i picked i810 and that's what causing the error. failed to start x server
[02:56] <dli> WarpedShadow, it updates, that's all
[02:56] <jivah> dj-fu, how should i do to change it in fat 32
[02:56] <orbin> zivak: so you already ran the reconfig command?
[02:56] <dj-fu> gotta run, sorry, it's late here
[02:57] <zivak> orbin - yup
[02:57] <ayabara> is Automatix a good way to get my Ubuntu install kickstarted?
[02:57] <jivah> dj-fu, thanks for your help bye
[02:58] <WarpedShadow> downloading  3mb of files eahc time synaptic starts is not "updating" in my mind. it getting new package lsits
[03:00] <ppp> :q
[03:00] <soulfreshner> is there some package that can install and uninstall packages so I am left with a bare server install again?
[03:00] <morphix> i installed ubuntu base then fluxbox with xdm
[03:00] <jivah> can someone help me, i would like to change my usb disk on fat 32, so that i can use both by windows and linux
[03:00] <morphix> but when the machine boots up.. it loads to X.. then X dies then goes to login shell
[03:00] <Lhademmor> !Xchat
[03:00] <ubotu> xchat is, like, totally, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/XChatHowto http://www.xchat.org/
[03:01] <|lostbyte_laptop> help with linksys router.. pls help..
[03:01] <orbin> WarpedShadow: the package cache gets cleared by cron iirc
[03:01] <Doat> I can't ssh to my second comp (running debian) with ethernet IP, but with public IP I can. What could be causing this?
[03:01] <morphix> :(
[03:01] <morphix> fkn stupid XDM
[03:02] <XiXaQ> Do I need the source repositories?
[03:03] <chavo> XiXaQ, not unless your going to recompile packages
[03:03] <XiXaQ> chavo: and I probably won't, right?
[03:03] <chavo> XiXaQ, most people won't need them
[03:04] <WarpedShadow> orbin: ta, will look into that
[03:05] <XiXaQ> chavo: thanks.
[03:05] <orbin> WarpedShadow: i didn't like the auto-deletion either. i deleted 'apt' from /etc/cron.daily (or something like that)
[03:05] <morphix> i installed a leightweight ubuntu (ubuntu base + fluxbox + xdm + x-window-system-core) but when the machine boots up.. it loads to X.. then X dies then goes to login shell
[03:05] <WarpedShadow> now if I could convince sudo to allow me to edit things...
[03:05] <WarpedShadow> don't change time to much
[03:05] <babo> How do I send my email in emacs ?
[03:05] <orbin> morphix: sounds like a graphical problem. do you have any error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[03:06] <orbin> morphix: er, that's if you have xorg.  i don't know what's in the core package tbh
[03:07] <zivak> hey guys - how do i have 915resolution to run before x server is started?
[03:08] <kumar> my sources list have some problem how can i repair the source list
[03:08] <morphix> orbin: yes i have xorg, and when i edit .xsession put exec fluxbox then do startx fluxbox works.. the only "bad" thing in my xorg log is "Warning: font renderer for ".<bunch of different extensions>" already at priority 0"
[03:09] <kumar> if i install any thing then this throw the following line
[03:09] <kumar> Malformed line 29 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)
[03:10] <orbin> morphix: yeah, the font warngings aren't really anything to worry about.  weird.  guess it's not graphical after all :-/
[03:10] <Doat> I can't ssh to my second comp (running debian) with ethernet IP, but with public IP I can. What could be causing this?
[03:10] <orbin> ubotu: tell kumar about sources
[03:10] <gymsmoke> is there a package of fonts that can be added to my ubuntu server ?
[03:10] <kumar> i want to repair the sources list
[03:11] <morphix> orbin: its annoying me.. i NEED X to start up automatically.. as the pc will eventually be unplugged from keyboard and pluged into a tv and using a remote control
[03:11] <kumar> but i dont know how can i do
[03:12] <gymsmoke> ubotu: tell gymsmoke about fonts
[03:13] <orbin> morphix: is there a fluxbox channel?
[03:13] <eggzeck> kumar, your sources.list if ruined?
[03:13] <ctothej> Has anyone been successful getting ubuntu AMD64 version installed and working with an ATI graphics card ?
[03:14] <amd64> ctohej: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Breezy_Installation_Guide
[03:14] <morphix> orbin: dont know.. but that shouldnt matter.. it seems to be a XDM problem
[03:14] <kumar> if i install any thing
[03:15] <kumar> it throw error
[03:15] <kumar> Malformed line 29 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)
[03:15] <xophEr> ctothej, I have..I doubt this information helps but ;P
[03:15] <eggzeck> kumar, http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic (replace /etc/apt/sources.list with what you get.
[03:15] <amd64> ctohej: this uses the ATI propriatary driver. I have it working on my amd64 Ubunto 5.10
[03:15] <gnomefreak> kumar: im still waiting to see your sources.list file on pastebin
[03:15] <kumar> ok
[03:15] <eggzeck> kumar, or paste your sources.list in pastebin and I'll have a look
[03:15] <kumar> ok wait
[03:15] <scifi> neone use KPovmodeler here ?

[03:21] <eggzeck> crrrn, yes shouting makes us know it
[03:21] <ctothej> amd64: i used that page that you sent me and followed the instructions after i tried the instructions titled "BinaryDriverHowto/ATI"
[03:21] <gymsmoke> crrrn: we heard you the first time... no, sorry, i don't
[03:21] <crrrn> O THANKS

[03:21] <ctothej> amd64: it wasnt there.. i was getting the same error as before
[03:22] <amd64> ctothej: what was the error?
[03:22] <gymsmoke> i need to go hunt down some nice fonts for ubuntu
[03:22] <crrrn> HI EGGZECK
[03:22] <eggzeck> gymsmoke, to use for?
[03:22] <the_mug> I have apparently lost all my desktop items... any clues? I had my lappy at home (with one network profile)... brought it to work... gone!.. :-/ ?
[03:22] <crrrn> do you know the voip buster???
[03:22] <crrrn> eggzeck
[03:22] <gymsmoke> eggzeck: web sites
[03:23] <Doat> I can't ssh to my second comp (running debian) with ethernet IP, but with public IP I can. What could be causing this?
[03:23] <zivak> guys - what's the command for this step? " in order to run 915resolution at every boot before X starts, add to/etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh, before exit, the following (change the variables for your desired configuration):
[03:23] <zivak> /usr/sbin/915resolution 5a 1680 1050 32
[03:23] <aLPHa_LeaK> gymsmoke, the artwiz fonts are good
[03:23] <eggzeck> gymsmoke, ahh cool. (thought it was for terminal viewing) hehe
[03:23] <amd64> ctothej: is this the file you downloaded from ati? "ati-driver-installer-8.24.8-x86_64.run"
[03:23] <scifi> is it possible to change the fonts that ubuntu uses ?
[03:23] <HymnToLife> !fonts
[03:23] <gymsmoke> eggzeck: hehe - i don't need _pretty_ for vi ...
[03:23] <ubotu> rumour has it, fonts is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FontInstallHowto
[03:23] <ctothej> amd64: the x failure i mean. it said no device found for PCI:1:0:1
[03:23] <crrrn> eggzeck: Can you explain how to install the SJhpone with the voipbuster???
[03:23] <orbin> scifi: sys > prefs > fonts
[03:24] <scifi> thx guys
[03:24] <ctothej> amd64: but there is no device there, there is only a device on PCI:1:0:0
[03:24] <gymsmoke> ubotu: i already that, thank you... what i want is locations of fonts...  (hehe - im talking to a bot)
[03:24] <ubotu> I think you lost me on that one, gymsmoke
[03:24] <scifi> didnt see that 1
[03:24] <amd64> ctothej: what is your ati adapter?
[03:24] <zivak> anybody? :(
[03:24] <eggzeck> crrrn, I never said I knew how to do that. I just used sarcasm as a way to say "Yes shouting makes us know how to". heh
[03:24] <crrrn> eggzeck: Thi thing is that I have intalled it, buy i can't received the signal, buy i can sed it
[03:24] <ctothej> amd64: x1900
[03:24] <crrrn>  ok
[03:24] <scifi> cud u guys recommend a font ?
[03:24] <aLPHa_LeaK> zivak, sudo nano /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh and add /usr/sbin 915resolution 5a 1680 1050 32
[03:25] <aLPHa_LeaK> scifi, mintsmild
[03:25] <crrrn> eggzeck: THATs TRUE
[03:25] <aLPHa_LeaK> !help
[03:25] <eggzeck> gymsmoke, not to make it "pretty" but for ease of reading/coding I like terminus hehe
[03:25] <ctothej> amd64: pm? trouble keeping up with the chat room.
[03:25] <saaida> Does anyone knwo of a way to pass the "Digital Rights Management" in a using vlc ?
[03:25] <scifi> perhaps a font thats in the default list ?
[03:25] <amd64> amd64: sure
[03:25] <amd64> ctohej: sure
[03:26] <gymsmoke> eggzeck: oh, right... i have that.  But I've only got like 4 or 5 for display stuff on web pages... i need a few more, since the way these pages get designed and the way they _present_ just don't match up too well
[03:26] <Terminus> oh, the font.
[03:27] <the_mug> weird.... I clicked on Places--> Computer and the icons RE-Appeared... strange.
[03:27] <eggzeck> scifi, depends on what you're going to be using the fonts for. A good terminal font would be to use 'terminus', and for general purposes I like 'Bitstream Vera Sans 8'. You can change fonts in your System->Preferences->Fonts menu
[03:28] <lowroad> does anyone know how to determine if my laptop dvd drive is primary or secondary/ master or slave?
[03:28] <scifi> eggzeck: yeh ive found the font list, but just wanna chnage my main desktop/app font to something more sophisticated
[03:28] <gymsmoke> eggzeck: my guess here is, download the zip to the server, then go through the how to for installing ... (I don't have a gewey) ...
[03:29] <gymsmoke> scifi: i just found this one... http://moorstation.org/fontennium/jugend/art_n.htm

[03:31] <gymsmoke> lowroad: lspci ?
[03:32] <eggzeck> lowroad, device manager?

[03:38] <coz_> orbin, ufortunately I have a few bugs with dapper that I had to bug report so in the meantime I am using breeay
[03:38] <tombs> hi all
[03:38] <_jason> zivak: \o/
[03:39] <orbin> zivak: i thought your problem was that you were forced to use vesa :-/
[03:39] <zivak> yea.... i tried i810 and it didnt work but i'm on vesa with the resolution i want :|
[03:39] <zivak> for some weird freakish reason.... it worked.... 1280x768 under vesa
[03:40] <rane_> how do i change bittorrents settings?
[03:40] <zivak> what was the command name to test my video card? something about the animated gears
[03:40] <lowroad> I looked up my dvd drive under manage devices, it tells me it's an IDE device master..... How can I find out if it's Primary master or Secondary Master?
[03:40] <ctothej> amd64: ok, ill just give it a go in here
[03:40] <lowroad> anyone?
[03:40] <_jason> zivak: glxgears?
[03:40] <ctothej> amd64: as for the problem, i used lspci to see if there was anything on PCI:1:0:1 and there was not... so i dont know why it would have given me that error
[03:40] <BSCH> hello, everybody
[03:40] <zivak> crap... the gear's running sluggish
[03:40] <acuster> hey all
[03:40] <rane_> how do i change bittorrents settings?
[03:40] <wk2x> hi all, i have a probme with my tv- card (pinnacle tv-card 110i). when i try to start kdetv it doesn't run. with windows xp it running. the log file of the kdetv start can you see here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13215, Please help me, i'ts very important for me.
[03:41] <ctothej> amd64: now the instruction said that i may have to remove the old driver (fglrx), but I couldnt even find it.
[03:41] <orbin> zivak: course it is.  vesa only provides software rendering iirc
[03:41] <zivak> one last question - i just downloaded firefox file and how do i install it? :|
[03:41] <acuster> re: java support for open office: is it possible to have open office *without* java?
[03:41] <rane_> how do i change bittorrents settings?
[03:41] <orbin> zivak: you want ff1.5?
[03:41] <scifi> gonna try times new roman from msttcorefonts
[03:41] <twopeak> rane_: I'm not sure you can change much more than the options you get in the application. Maybe if you install another client you will have more chance.
[03:41] <zivak> orbin - yup
[03:42] <acuster> ubuntu is forcing me to add a java binary which is tripping up another program
[03:42] <orbin> ubotu: tell zivak about ff1.5
[03:42] <BSCH> how to autorun dhclient3?
[03:42] <eggzeck> zivak, the gears run smooth and nice for me :)
[03:42] <rane_> Others are more difficult to use, what do you use
[03:42] <wk2x> hi all, i have a probme with my tv- card (pinnacle tv-card 110i). when i try to start kdetv it doesn't run. with windows xp it running. the log file of the kdetv start can you see here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13215, PLEASE help me, i'ts very important for me.
[03:42] <BSCH> My ubuntu start, it don't autorun dhcp service~~
[03:42] <twopeak> I'd like to get some help creating a script that will launch an executable and a openoffice file at the same time.
[03:43] <eggzeck> twopeak, learn 'shell scripting' or 'Perl' :)
[03:43] <twopeak> !shell scripting
[03:43] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, twopeak

[03:44] <ubotu> For a list of basic commands, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands
[03:44] <chavo> twopeak, what do you need to know?
[03:44] <rane_> how do i change bittorrents settings?
[03:44] <twopeak> chavo: launching an executable and an openoffice file at the same time
[03:44] <scifi> i THINK times new roman looks good
[03:45] <chavo> twopeak, just make a file with this as the first line: #!/bin/bash
[03:45] <wk2x> hi all, i have a probme with my tv- card (pinnacle tv-card 110i). when i try to start kdetv it doesn't run. with windows xp it running. the log file of the kdetv start can you see here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13215, Please help me, i'ts very important for me.
[03:46] <chavo> then put the name of the executable on next line with ampersand like this: executable_name &
[03:46] <chavo> next line put the oo executable
[03:46] <orbin> wk2x, rane_: i understand you want to get help, but could you please wait for at least 5 mins before reposting?
[03:46] <twopeak> chavo thanks! I had both under eachother making them run once the other finished. I guess this will solve it. :)
[03:47] <wk2x> orbin: yes, sorry
[03:47] <chavo> yeah most things need the & symbol, not all but it's best to use it in case it needs it
[03:48] <scifi> hmm actually i think times new roman is hard on the eyes
[03:48] <BSCH> My ubuntu start, it don't autorun dhcp service.
[03:49] <BSCH> how to do~
[03:49] <orbin> wk2x: i'm not sure what's goin on, but i'd try and resolve the warnings maybe?  see the bit about the bitdepth mismatch.  perhaps you shoudl run the setup program and fix that
[03:51] <morphix> whats the command to reconfigure a deb package?
[03:51] <eggzeck> morphix, dpkg-reconfigure?

[04:20] <xbox_sky> from a guide on the net, ubuntu guide unofficial
[04:20] <xbox_sky> sudo mount /media/cdrom0/ -o unhide I use all the time for my dvd burner
[04:20] <orbin> xbox_sky: yes, but the /media/cdrom0 dir already exists
[04:20] <orbin> xbox_sky: cd into /media and do an ls
[04:20] <orbin> is there a hdc entry?

[04:21] <ubotu> hmm... fonts is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FontInstallHowto
[04:21] <apokryphos> yggdrasil: sudo dhclient
[04:21] <cliche> ...
[04:21] <gymsmoke> yggdrasil: when you install ubuntu server, its default is dhcp ....,
[04:22] <apokryphos> gymsmoke: well, not if you don't select it on the install.
[04:22] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: yeah, i've read through there... a bit sparse
[04:22] <yggdrasil> uh no im talkingabout making a dhcp server... not a client
[04:22] <orbin> xbox_sky: open up fstab. we're gonan edit it
[04:22] <yggdrasil> i think i got that part ifgured out
[04:22] <gymsmoke> Ubuntu 5.10 stable ...
[04:22] <yggdrasil> dhcpd
[04:22] <gnomefreak> gymsmoke: it should give you a file name to look in for your fonts (wher eyou would install the new fonts)
[04:22] <orbin> xbox_sky: add a new entry: /dev/hdc        /media/cdrom   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[04:22] <Aaronfromchina> In the modem porperty, i selected modem port as : dev/modem.  Don't know if it's right?
[04:23] <orbin> xbox_sky: save and close, and then try the mount command
[04:23] <Aaronfromchina> could anyone hlep me to setup modem?
[04:23] <cliche> 56k modem?
[04:23] <orbin> xbox_sky: i.e. sudo mount /media/cdrom/ -o unhide I
[04:23] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: it says to look in /usr/share/fonts... there are 2 dirs there - bitstream and dejavu ...
[04:23] <Aaronfromchina> cliche, yes. it's a built-in modem of my laptop.
[04:23] <Aaronfromchina> cliche, My laptop has a buit-in modem, but it seems doesn't work on ubuntu5.1. I went to network settings, and tried to activate it.  it said: could not enable the interface ppp0.
[04:24] <cliche> soft-modem?
[04:24] <cliche> ........
[04:24] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: all the info i can find about bitsream is that they are console/terminal fonts... that leaves dejavu... i don't know what that is...
[04:24] <Aaronfromchina> cliche, hardware. I think.
[04:24] <cliche> are you sure?
[04:24] <Aaronfromchina> cliche, well, not sure.   :)
[04:24] <gnomefreak> gymsmoke: that would another font but im not sure what its used with/in
[04:25] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: i found out that defoma is the font configuration utility, so i got that and the docs... but the docs for this are somewhat obscure...
[04:25] <cliche> I thought only rs-232 interface modem is the REAL modem
[04:25] <Aaronfromchina> cliche, I'll figure it out. it's built-in one of my compaq presario x1000.
[04:25] <leesoon> Nautilus
[04:25] <xbox_sky> sudo mount /media/cdrom/ -o unhide I
[04:25] <xbox_sky> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[04:25] <saaida> gnomefreak : but in the manual . it says the modes should be seperated by comma
[04:25] <xbox_sky> Orbin did you see?
[04:25] <orbin> Aaronfromchina: it's probably a windmodem.  pastebin the output of the lspci command
[04:25] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: the only thing i know for sure is that, other than verdana and sans-serif, there isn't jack on this server for web pages yet...
[04:25] <Aaronfromchina> cliche, then it must be a soft modem. :)
[04:26] <saaida> gnomefreak : Multiple symbolic operations can be given, sepa
[04:26] <saaida>        rated by commas. ---> and the one u gave me doe not have commas
[04:26] <gnomefreak> saaida: a+x = 1 mode
[04:26] <saaida> ohh
[04:26] <cliche> take a real rs-232 modem (recycled) -> done.
[04:26] <xbox_sky> orbin sudo mount /media/cdrom/ -o unhide I        mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[04:27] <saaida> gnomefreak : ok thanx for clearing this ou

[04:27] <gnomefreak> saaida: or you should beable to do a,x
[04:27] <B_Lizzard> AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
[04:27] <orbin> xbox_sky: sudo mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom -t auto
[04:27] <gnomefreak> if im not mistaken
[04:27] <orbin> xbox_sky: sorry, -t auto should be after mount
[04:27] <Aaronfromchina> cliche, the specification of the laptop doesn't explicitly say if the modem is soft or hard,
[04:27] <Aaronfromchina> cliche, does it make difference on setting it up?
[04:27] <HymnToLife> Aaronfromchina> it's most likely soft
[04:27] <cliche> Aaronfromchina, they don't want you to know, because...

[04:29] <xbox_sky> orbin sudo mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom -t auto mount: No medium found
[04:29] <orbin> Aaronfromchina: yes. it makes it harder.  i've got a compaq presario too.  you need to use the linuxant driver if you wish to use the modem.  i was lucky and had another external modem sitting around that isn't a windmodem
[04:29] <freezey> WEBMIN ANYONE????
[04:29] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: have you ever installed fonts with defoma ?

[04:30] <xbox_sky> orbin yup
[04:31] <azmansell1> anyone?
[04:31] <HymnToLife> www.linmodems.org is the place to figure it all out
[04:31] <xbox_sky> orbin if the dvdr would be empy no data, would it give out "no media found"?
[04:31] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: do you run a web server ?
[04:31] <Aaronfromchina> orbin, is linuxant a generic driver for modem? There is a modem device in network setting. Can it help setup a lot?
[04:31] <ptey> need help with ruby on rails in 5.04

[04:31] <Aaronfromchina> HymnToLife, have you ever successufully set it up?
[04:32] <xbox_sky> orbin i'm trying a regular dvd hold on
[04:32] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: ok...

[04:32] <ptey> need help with ruby on rails in 5.04 :)
[04:32] <orbin> xbox_sky: yes, iirc you can't mount blank discs
[04:32] <xbox_sky> orbin same result, it doesn't even load, takes a split second and then it tells me "no media"
[04:32] <HymnToLife> Aaronfromchina> yes, it's SmartLink based so it works fine with the slmodemd package
[04:33] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: hehe - my first 2 ubuntu experiences were with desktops, but i'm really a command-line guy at heart... setting up one of my companies on ubuntu was a logical next step for me...
[04:33] <ptey> need help with ruby on rails in 5.04 :)
[04:33] <freezey> wk2x: did you use wrong usid/pw
[04:33] <orbin> Aaronfromchina: that will tell you what sort of modem you have
[04:33] <untitled> how can i compile packages in ubuntu? i did install gcc, but it doesn't work like that?
[04:33] <gymsmoke> gnomefreak: all the basics are working fine - dns, name server, mail, mysql, apache ... so it's on to site design/layout... hence, the fonts
[04:33] <Aaronfromchina> orbin, OK. I'll check it out. :)
[04:33] <edgardpacheco> anyone? anyone knows a good sound converter?
[04:33] <ptey> can somebody help me install ruby and ruby on rails in ubuntu 5.04?? i would be very happy:)
[04:33] <orbin> untitled: get build-essential.  what are you compiling though?
[04:33] <Aaronfromchina> HymnToLife, Thanks :)
[04:34] <edgardpacheco> a good format sound converter? that convert's audio cd's into mp3's

[04:37] <orbin> xbox_sky: just to elimiminate the cause:  use sudo mount -t auto instead of putting it at the end

[04:41] <Aaronfromchina> orbin, I got the modem.
[04:41] <edgardpacheco> hey guys
[04:41] <edgardpacheco> do you remember of the abcde?
[04:41] <sinubutu> I have a sound problem. I have an onboard chip (ESS audio: es1869) it appears in the HAL device manager as a PnP device ( but all  the listing ion there say unknown to the categories) and I cannot get any sounds going, when I try to go in the sound preferenceas there does not seem to be a soundcard available.  I checked the wiki for old soundcard but the only reference I found was for asn old ISA soundcard with a similar chip.  any sug
[04:41] <sinubutu> estion as to what I am failing to do or see?
[04:41] <HymnToLife> yes
[04:41] <ocult> somebody here have card sound Realtek ac`97
[04:42] <ocult> ?
[04:42] <edgardpacheco> i just installed it, but i don't know how it works :(
[04:42] <marcie> I have ubuntu on my computer...but little idea of how to install any new programs (i'm not even sure about the updates i'm downloading now)
[04:42] <Aaronfromchina> orbin, it's Modem: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 01)
[04:42] <monomaniacpat> ocult: I do
[04:42] <xknight_> i have read the wiki and ndiswrapper page 10 times..... so ever one knows
[04:42] <Elazar> I'm opening an SSH connection to a server. Is me getting this error most likely a problem with the server or the client? "Read from remote host booksxyz.com: Connection reset by peer. Connection to booksxyz.com closed."
[04:42] <HymnToLife> edgardpacheco> just open a terminal and run abcde -o mp3 to rib your CD into mp3
[04:42] <eghie|werk> hello, what package does it take to mount an ext2 image (initrd image) with loop?
[04:42] <edgardpacheco> marcie: there are many ways, first you will need to update your aptitude, so you can download programs from the internet
[04:42] <monomaniacpat> ocult: actualy, maybe not, it's ac97 though
[04:42] <Shigutso> the Weather Report isn't working with my city here, even my city appearing in the list! What can I do to make it works?
[04:42] <Aaronfromchina> HymnToLife, the modem is Modem: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 01). How can I install the smartlink based?
[04:42] <edgardpacheco> marcie: for doing that, enter the terminal and type : "sudo aptitude update"
[04:43] <Aaronfromchina> HymnToLife, and what is the smartlink ?
[04:43] <ocult> monomaniacpat, pvt
[04:43] <HymnToLife> Aaronfromchina> are you sure the SmartLink driver is the one you need ?
[04:43] <marcie> ok i'll go look
[04:43] <edgardpacheco> marcie: then if you want to install something type "sudo aptitude install (here_the_name_of_the_program)"  without the parenthesis
[04:43] <xknight_> http://pastebin.com/691736
[04:43] <HymnToLife> I advise you send your modemData.txt to the linmodems mailing-list, knowledgeble folk will answer you there
[04:43] <gymsmoke> don't know why, but me and aptitude just don't get along... commandline tools i understand...
[04:44] <marcie> how do i enter the terminal here (i only used Unix with no xwindows before)
[04:44] <edgardpacheco> is there any other program with more easy handling?
[04:44] <_jason> gymsmoke: aptitude is a cli tool too
[04:44] <Aaronfromchina> HymnToLife, is smartlink a moderm driver package including loads of generic modem drivers?
[04:44] <HymnToLife> it is a modem driver package but I don't know if it will work for you
[04:44] <lowroad> What is the simplest program to use to rip a dvd into an avi or mpeg file?  I've been trying to use dvd::rip but it's not working properly
[04:44] <gymsmoke> _jason: yeah, i've tried it... it seems a bit weird to me for some reason... like it's not near as straightforward as the command line tools...
[04:44] <monomaniacpat> Can anyone lend a hand with my wireless card?
[04:44] <liquiem> marcie: alt + ctrl + Fn? ;)
[04:44] <HymnToLife> just send your modemdata.txt to the linmodems mailing-list
[04:44] <marcie> i think i would get command line better...how do i get there from here...?
[04:45] <GazzaK> is the latest nvidia drivers going to be added to package manager?
[04:45] <_jason> gymsmoke: it's pretty much the same as apt-get isn't it?
[04:45] <Aaronfromchina> HymnToLife, thank you. I see. :)
[04:45] <liquiem> marcie: or start up gnome-terminal.. applications..tools..terminal :)
[04:45] <ocult> monomaniacpat, work good ?
[04:46] <edgardpacheco> marcie: applications -> accesories -> terminal
[04:46] <gymsmoke> _jason: not for me... i open aptitude, and get broken package messages... then, when i look on the command line, they're fine... i've also found that it's easy to make mistakes with aptitude (like the time i clicked a directory by mistake and it wanted to uninstall everything i just selected)
[04:46] <freakabcd> on
[04:46] <_jason> gymsmoke: yeah, I don't use the ncurses interface, I just do like 'sudo aptitude install chromium'
[04:46] <marcie> ok i'm getting a command line...i'll look around for a bit.
[04:47] <Jatt_kol_12_borh> xknight_: Did you load the module of ndiswrapper ?
[04:47] <Jatt_kol_12_borh> if not do  lsmod |grep ndiswrapper
[04:47] <Jatt_kol_12_borh> and see what the results are ?
[04:47] <edgardpacheco> marcie: ok, good luck my comrad :D
[04:47] <gymsmoke> _jason: hehe - that's safer.  the only difference between that and the commandline is that supposedly, aptitude keeps record of what's been done...
[04:47] <monomaniacpat> Can anyone help a damsel in distress?
[04:47] <Shigutso> the Weather Report isn't working with my city here, even my city appearing in the list! What can I do to make it works?
[04:48] <edgardpacheco> monomaniacpat: what can I do for you?
[04:48] <monomaniacpat> I have a wireless card that used to work but now doesn't
[04:48] <monomaniacpat> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=167026
[04:48] <freezey> A few questions if anyone can answer about Webmin
[04:48] <edgardpacheco> Shigutso: i don't think there is nothing you can do about the weather control... check if your city is the correct one... wait for a few hours to work out...
[04:49] <sachi> hi! I have installed Ubuntu on a system with ATI Radeon Xpress 200M vga card, it has been recognised but I can't switch to console from GDM or GNOME
[04:49] <edgardpacheco> monomaniacpat: have you checked the DNS configuration?
[04:49] <monomaniacpat> edgardpacheco: how would I do that?
[04:49] <liquiem> sachi: alt + ctrl + f1
[04:50] <sachi> I get some gradient patterns and the laptop gets stuck
[04:50] <gymsmoke> sachi: can you open a terminal from within the desktop ?
[04:50] <sachi> liquiem: gymsmoke yes
[04:50] <edgardpacheco> monomaniacpat: in ubuntu 5.10 : ->system ->administration -> net
[04:50] <simonpca> plop
[04:50] <gymsmoke> sachi: how about alt-f2 (or ctl-alt-f2)
[04:50] <xknight_> Jatt_kol_12_borh:  i think so
[04:50] <xknight_> modprobe -m
[04:51] <xknight_> modprobe ndiswrapper
[04:51] <xknight_> yea
[04:51] <Jatt_kol_12_borh> yea
[04:51] <Jatt_kol_12_borh> wait
[04:51] <monomaniacpat> Is it possible I have problems with network settings? It often doesn't load when I ask it to
[04:51] <sachi> gymsmoke: if I exit X by pressing ctrl-alt-backspace it works... after that alt-f1, f2 work
[04:51] <monomaniacpat> like now
[04:51] <sachi> gymsmoke: not from X
[04:51] <simonpca> is "plop" an english word?
[04:51] <monomaniacpat> I keep clicking on it and it won't load
[04:51] <edgardpacheco> monomaniacpat: do you connect from a proxy server?
[04:51] <Pierre> re
[04:51] <gymsmoke> oh, sorry - shift-alt-f2
[04:52] <edgardpacheco> monomaniacpat: since when that wireless card isn't working?
[04:52] <monomaniacpat> Two days ago
[04:52] <edgardpacheco> monomaniacpat: are you connecting from a proxy server?
[04:52] <monomaniacpat> what is a proxy server?
[04:53] <edgardpacheco> monomaniacpat: a proxy server is like a gateway to the internet, sometimes that proxy needs to reboot or re-open the ports...
[04:53] <iceyes_> where can i change my lan ip and can i make it static there?
[04:53] <edgardpacheco> monomaniacpat: maybe you should call to your ISP
[04:53] <Elazar> I'm opening an SSH connection to a server. Is me getting this error most likely a problem with the server or the client? "Read from remote host booksxyz.com: Connection reset by peer. Connection to booksxyz.com closed."
[04:53] <monomaniacpat> I have a router...
[04:54] <monomaniacpat> I have network settings open now
[04:57] <Howitzer> Hi
[04:58] <xknight_> Jatt_kol_12_borh:  pm
[04:58] <marcie> well...i found the command line
[04:58] <marcie> (newbie)
[04:58] <KenSentMe> well done!
[04:58] <marcie> of course it's been 10 years since i've used unix...so i can't do much there yet
[04:59] <iceyes__> is there some stuff such ipconfig somewhere?
[05:00] <marcie> i saw it...i think...want me to try and find it again (IP configure)
[05:00] <KenSentMe> iceyes__: try ifconfig
[05:00] <monomaniacpat> I am a damsel, and I am still in distress. More, actually, now that edgard has gone
[05:00] <marcie> so i still don't know how to make my system ready for new software
[05:01] <iceyes__> KenSentMe thats what i searched thanks
[05:01] <HymnToLife> marcie > what do you mean ?
[05:01] <marcie> install on the application seems only to deal with software already available.
[05:01] <lool> hi there, is there a place where one can retrieve old version of the ubuntu binary packages?
[05:01] <marcie> Well i downloaded several programs but then they get split in parts...which i have no idea where to put
[05:01] <sinubutu> marcie the easy way is  ion the System menu > administration > synaptic package manager
[05:02] <lool> e.g. I'd like to get an older gdm.deb than the latest
[05:02] <KenSentMe> marcie: what kind of programms?
[05:02] <h0ned> Hi, i am trying to upgrade (downgrade?) the kernel to a version which was compiled with the same gcc installed on my computer....all of this in order to get the eagle-usb adsl modem driver working
[05:02] <marcie> ok trying that be back...
[05:02] <lool> h0ned: the eagle usb driver is builtin in Ubuntu's kernel
[05:02] <h0ned> it is? :S
[05:03] <marcie> hmff says it is already running...is that because i'm installin updates ubuntu provides?
[05:03] <lool> h0ned: I was going through the CONFIG_* of /boot/config-2.6.15-21-686 yesterday, and EAGLE8USB was there
[05:03] <lool> as a module
[05:03] <KenSentMe> marcie: yes
[05:03] <KenSentMe> marcie: wait until they're finished
[05:03] <marcie> so it will at least install the updates?
[05:03] <KenSentMe> marcie: yes
[05:03] <marcie> ok...
[05:04] <xknight_> how come when i su
[05:04] <ygetartson> Hi all, i have a question maybe a little offtopic, but i really dont know where to ask it, if not here.
[05:04] <xknight_> and put in the pass it says authentication failure
[05:04] <marcie> linux does way more than the unix i had to use in university (it was bastardised so we could do as little as possible)
[05:04] <xknight_> ygetartson:  its ok to be gay
[05:04] <xknight_> :)
[05:04] <xknight_> j,k
[05:04] <ygetartson> Can I use a PS2 keyboard with my laptop that has no such port?
[05:04] <xknight_> yea
[05:04] <xknight_> you can
[05:05] <ygetartson> how ?
[05:05] <xknight_> you need a usb converter
[05:05] <lool> is there a public morgue for old versions of *.deb?
[05:05] <h0ned> lool: thanks a bunch- its not really polite to ask (thanks to google...heh) but I've been unable to find a guide that helps with compiling the kernel from source in ubuntu
[05:05] <ygetartson> hm
[05:05] <xknight_> ;)
[05:05] <ygetartson> i want a cherry g80
[05:05] <lool> h0ned: serach one for Debian
[05:05] <xknight_> its a small plug goes on end of keyboard
[05:05] <xknight_> then goes in usb port
[05:05] <lool> h0ned: the package to install is "kernel-package", the man page of make-kpkg should help you
[05:05] <lool> h0ned: in general, you don't need to
[05:05] <ygetartson> i tried once with a ms keyboard, that didnt work
[05:05] <marcie> ps port on one side usb on the other
[05:05] <xknight_> im new to ubuntu
[05:05] <ygetartson> maybe cherry ones are better in this respect
[05:06] <marcie> xknight...so am i
[05:06] <xknight_> can some one tell me why "su" keeps telling me that my pass is wrong
[05:06] <h0ned> lool: yeah...but i gather at some point i'll have to edit the kernel-cofig file, and from there enable the .ko for eagle-usb, yes?
[05:06] <HymnToLife> !tell xknight_ about root
[05:06] <KenSentMe> xknight_: root has no password
[05:06] <lool> xknight_: there's no root password by default, if you want to set one, "sudo passwd"
[05:06] <xknight_> t,y
[05:06] <lool> xknight_: (first password is your current user password, next prompts the new root password)
[05:07] <lool> h0ned: it's enabled by default in Ubuntu
[05:07] <ocult> have channel for paraguay ?
[05:08] <h0ned> lool: thanks. a lot, will see if it works, ta. y'

[05:14] <freezey> hymntolife: just havinga little trouble can you helkp?
[05:14] <HymnToLife> maybe
[05:14] <HymnToLife> just ask
[05:14] <KenSentMe> !justask
[05:14] <ubotu> - Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[05:14] <monomaniacpat> marcie: I can see my one but I can't enable it.... or at least the network setting says it's enabled, but it's not
[05:14] <adrakoa> hi
[05:14] <Rug> Howdy all
[05:15] <Xana> !cedega
[05:15] <saskia> how do you share the PC's sound/audio between applications? why do i have to close a running app which uses the soundcard to be able to run another app that needs sound as well?
[05:15] <marcie> gtg my software is being installed
[05:15] <liquiem> saskia: use alsa dmix
[05:15] <Pierre> HymnToLife, fyi, mysqladmin is not available as ubuntu packages, and trying to install it is not that easy :)
[05:15] <freezey> I am installing PHP GroupWare and i am using webmin to create my database and when i run the command mysql -u root -p create phpgroupware... i get an error that says error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
[05:15] <freezey> Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!
[05:15] <adrakoa> i have a problem with compaq presario with graphics card ati radeon... after boot all is black... can i start without gdm???
[05:15] <saskia> liquiem: is alsa a daemon?
[05:16] <liquiem> saskia: no, alsa is a kernel module or built into the kernel
[05:16] <saskia> liquiem: is it installed by default in Dapper Drake?
[05:16] <HymnToLife> freezey> I got the same error, that was when I tried to tinker with my MySQL installation, keep the defaults and it should run fine
[05:16] <HymnToLife> also, I like to run sudo mysql_secure_installation to install my stuff
[05:16] <freezey> hymtolife: yeah i didn't touch nething tho.. it is on the defaults
[05:16] <liquiem> saskia: honestly, i dont know, im gentoo, but do a cat /proc/asound/cards
[05:16] <HymnToLife> hmm
[05:17] <liquiem> saskia: there you'll some output if alsa is active
[05:17] <saskia> ok, i will try lsmod as well
[05:17] <HymnToLife> freezey> try sudo mysql_secure_installation
[05:17] <freezey> command not found
[05:18] <HymnToLife> how did you install your server ?
[05:18] <freezey> well nothin is up and running yet maybe thats my problem
[05:18] <freezey> like these are the steps for php groupware
[05:18] <freezey> and i have to create an sql database
[05:18] <HymnToLife> normally it should work straight after the server install
[05:19] <freezey> so i installed webmin through synaptic and then tried to run this command and boom
[05:19] <freezey> error
[05:19] <HymnToLife> maybe a wrong version, try sudo apt-get install mysql-server-4.1 instead of mysql-server
[05:19] <sinubutu> I have a sound problem. on ubuntu 5.10.  I have an onboard chip (ESS audio: es1869) it appears in the HAL device manager as a PnP device ( but all  the listing ion there say unknown to the categories (vendor etc...)) and I cannot get any sounds going, when I try to go in the sound preferenceas there does not seem to be a soundcard available.  I checked the wiki for old soundcard but the only reference I found was for asn old ISA soundc
[05:19] <sinubutu> ard with a similar chip also had a look in the forum but found nothing so far.  any sugestion as to what I am failing to do or where I might have gone wrong?
[05:19] <mikomiko> how do i Install w32codecs and totem-xine
[05:20] <saskia> i think automatix will do
[05:20] <HymnToLife> mikomiko> sudo apt-get install w32codecs totem-xine
[05:20] <tsw> !automatix
[05:20] <ubotu> automatix is, like, unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, such as !easyubuntu.
[05:20] <_jason> ubotu: tell mikomiko about w32codecs
[05:20] <saskia> will automatix available by default in 6.06?
[05:20] <_jason> mikomiko: totem-xine is in the universe repository, for w32codecs please see ubotu's private message
[05:21] <_jason> saskia: please read what the bot just said
[05:21] <HymnToLife> I hope it won't
[05:21] <xst> I haved copied my old .evolution dir to my newly installed machine but evolution still asks me to create a new "first" account when I start it. How can I make evolution discover that its config-dir already exists?
[05:21] <tsw> saskia: please do not recommend automatix, its unsafe and might break stuff
[05:21] <tsw> !easyubuntu
[05:21] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[05:21] <saskia> oh, it's a no no
[05:22] <saskia> but why .. many still recommends.. like in digg.com
[05:23] <saskia> maybe for those who needs to play pirated DVD movies, lol - need the codecs :p
[05:23] <HymnToLife> saskia> the Ubuntu team does not, that shoul be enough I guess...
[05:24] <tsw> saskia: its too easy to recommend
[05:24] <saskia> yeah
[05:25] <KenSentMe> saskia: also check here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:25] <teleco> hola

[05:25] <saskia> hey, this video of Mark Shutt's discussion in UK is interesting

[05:26] <HymnToLife> stupid keyboard
[05:26] <HymnToLife> I definitely need a new laptop
[05:26] <ompaul> hehe
[05:26] <Determinist> saskia, url please?
[05:26] <saskia> buy a mini mac and install Ubuntu ;)
[05:26] <saskia> Determinist: video google
[05:27] <xst> How do I select which login manager to use? I just installed the kubuntu-desktop but that turned off the option to hibernate the laptop. So I want to switch back to gdm, but how?
[05:27] <Howitzer> Yeeha
[05:27] <Howitzer> just found a good RSS Reader :Straw :p
[05:27] <saskia> it's a good video of Mark Shuttleworth explaining about Ubuntu, search in video.google.com
[05:28] <Howitzer> BLAM didn't show when a feed was read or not which was really annoying and Liferea didn't load any feeds at all :/
[05:29] <saskia> here goes: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1165754797197197496&q=ubuntu
[05:29] <harisund> Hello people, do you know how to change the default banner that is displayed when you SSH into a machine? I looked at /etc/issue but that was not it.
[05:29] <mikomiko> how do i test my newly installed CODECS32
[05:29] <macieq> hi all, can i open file *.run ??
[05:29] <Determinist> no audio :/
[05:29] <macieq> i have a ubuntu 2 hours :D
[05:30] <KenSentMe> macieq: most of the time you can use the command line and do ./filename.run
[05:30] <BSCH> I have 10 ubuntu~~, five 64bit and five 32bit~
[05:30] <xerophyte>  when you setup internet connection share why do you need to install dnsmasq ipmasq  these to packages.. does the forward and masq rule on the iptable good enough to do the work just wondering why  do i need them ??
[05:31] <thaweazl> usually chmod +x <file>.sh then run it from a terminal ./filename.sh
[05:31] <Fillado> there's also sh filename.run
[05:31] <idefix> how can you switch your dvd-regio?
[05:31] <saskia> there again .. changing dvd regions
[05:31] <HymnToLife> xerophyte> it worked fine for me with just installing dhcp3-server and firestarter
[05:32] <thaweazl> i'm trying to deploy several Ubuntu app servers (LTSP) and i need them identical - anyone have any luck cloning machines?
[05:32] <xerophyte> HymnToLife,  you don't need those packages am i right
[05:32] <harisund> thaweazl: if you are able to find a solution for that, please do inform me.
[05:32] <saskia> thaweazl: use norton ghost :P
[05:33] <KenSentMe> idefix: maybe you can find something here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:33] <HymnToLife> xerophyte> which packages ?
[05:33] <xerophyte> HymnToLife,  dnsmasq ipmasq
[05:33] <gexen> yay, they updated liferea today, it finally works for me
[05:34] <Determinist> dear god, what is that accent? :D
[05:34] <HymnToLife> xerophyte> nope
[05:34] <yggdrasil> is there any way to have a recent documents in gnome ?
[05:34] <thaweazl> every time i use ghost, the machines dont like to boot - they also do a raw copy - free space and all - and ghost also can't deal with alternative filesystems - i like to use xfs on home folders due to the large number of small files & faster journaling on bootup
[05:34] <HymnToLife> just dhcp3-server and firestarter
[05:34] <bit_doidao> how to edit the fstab and let all users access my vfat partition?
[05:34] <avoine> someone try plone?
[05:34] <bit_doidao> this doesnt seems to work: /dev/hdb3       /media/hdb3     vfat    user,rw,noauto        0       0
[05:34] <HymnToLife> !tell bit_doidao about ntfs
[05:34] <gnomefreak> yggdrasil: places>recent documents
[05:34] <HymnToLife> instructions for FT are also in there
[05:34] <_jason> bit_doidao: umask=0000 as an option

[05:45] <TokenBad> what is command in ubuntu to change a dir from owned by root to owned by me or so everyone can write to it?
[05:45] <HymnToLife> TokenBad> man chown
[05:45] <saskia> bad idea anyway, why would u want to do that
[05:45] <HymnToLife> or chmod if you want everyone to be able to write to it without changing the owner
[05:46] <TokenBad> saskia, I am the only one on the system...and for some reason it made the dir root...but when I am logged in I can't write to it..thats why
[05:47] <saskia> oh, the new user you created didnt have the homedir
[05:47] <saskia> like when u do a useradd without any options
[05:48] <TokenBad> no...I was installing a game...and the dir it made...was made user root
[05:48] <TokenBad> but I want to copy files to the dir..
[05:48] <saskia> oh
[05:48] <TokenBad> so need to make it so I can write to it
[05:48] <saskia> ok then go with chmods
[05:48] <gnomefreak> yw yggdrasil
[05:48] <\login> what is the name of the apt-get program for x?
[05:48] <theopedia> How do I get Ubuntu to automatically recognize my graphics card? I replaced a card and now everything's crapped out
[05:49] <TokenBad> 700 is the allow everyone right?
[05:49] <TokenBad> or is it 777?
[05:49] <saskia> yggdrasil.. wow, reminds me of old days
[05:49] <yggdrasil> i get alot of that lately
[05:49] <yggdrasil> im named after the tree ... how old of days were you thinking
[05:49] <Determinist> this mark shuttleworth guy seems really nice, ya know? expresses himself in a modest down to earth way.

[05:50] <HymnToLife> !fixres
[05:50] <ubotu> I guess fixres is Please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:50] <yggdrasil> yar the distro... first to be put on a dvd
[05:51] <saskia> cdrom actually
[05:52] <yggdrasil> i mean it was the first distro to use a dvd
[05:52] <yggdrasil> nevermind
[05:53] <saskia> :)
[05:53] <saskia> doh
[05:53] <freezey> hymtolife: u there?
[05:53] <HymnToLife> yep
[05:54] <sinubutu> !sound
[05:54] <ubotu> well, sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[05:55] <TokenBad> ok i mounted my cd-rom drive and just tried to unmount with sudo umount /media/cdrom0/ and it tells me its busy even though its not...
[05:55] <saskia> TokenBad: type lsod
[05:56] <saskia> i mean lsof
[05:56] <TokenBad> ok alot of stuff just went by on the screen
[05:56] <HymnToLife> TokenBad> if it tells you it is, then it is, check your running processes
[05:56] <saskia> grep the ones on your cdrom mount point
[05:57] <TokenBad> but the light on the cd-rom is not on
[05:57] <Malagmyr> TokenBad: when you've opened a file in M$ Word, your harddrive light will switch off after loading it. It'll still be in use.
[05:57] <saskia> lsof | grep cdrom0
[05:58] <TokenBad> saskia, did that..it posted like 4 things
[05:58] <saskia> which are ..
[05:58] <TokenBad> so I assume kill -9 pid?
[05:58] <ompaul> TokenBad, no, you do this
[05:58] <Malagmyr> TokenBad: or figure out what they actually are and stop them properly
[05:58] <saskia> yeah, what are those processes anyway
[05:58] <ompaul> TokenBad, you identify the program that has them open and close it correctly, if you have a terminal involved you cd / to get away from the cd
[05:59] <TokenBad> I had put the cd in..to just copy the files from the cd to my hard drive..and they have been copied
[05:59] <TokenBad> nothing else
[05:59] <saskia> cd to somewhere else, / is the safest
[05:59] <HymnToLife> have you closed the Nautilus windows onvolving the CD ?
[05:59] <freezey> hymtolife: dude the postfix config came up
[05:59] <HymnToLife> or browsed away from it
[05:59] <Malagmyr> TokenBad: then you've probably got a terminal or some sort of file manager using the cd directory
[05:59] <jontydog> can someone tell me how I mount my hard drives in linux please?
[05:59] <ompaul> TokenBad, in order to copy your nautilus opened a path to the CD you need to close that
[05:59] <freezey> hymtolife: i dont want this to do mail and it says if i wnat to lave the config alone choose this option
[05:59] <freezey> no config
[06:00] <HymnToLife> freezey> yeah, and when you're done ?
[06:00] <TokenBad> ok it wasn't the nautilus..it was a terminal window that was cd to that dir..thanks
[06:00] <odat> help with evolution?   out of no where my send/recieve button is greyed out i have uninstalled and reinstalled , deleted preferences and setting, but each time its the same thing
[06:00] <freezey> hymtolife: it just prompts me for a general type of conif and gives me a few different options
[06:00] <freezey> hymtolife: i am just not sure which to choose
[06:01] <HymnToLife> freezey> I usually choose Web Site but it doesn't really matter
[06:01] <freezey> hymtolife: well does it depend on what i am gonna use it for?
[06:01] <HymnToLife> what are you gonna use it for ?
[06:02] <freezey> i am gonna use it to work with PHP groupware... which is an online file manager similar to an FTP just easier for slower people
[06:02] <HymnToLife> ok, just with PHP
