[12:00] <stevr1it2> i will restart the pc?
[12:00] <dabaR> aLPHa_LeaK: nate to you too
[12:00] <pbx> ryu: Try in #ubuntu+1 perhaps
[12:00] <dabaR> stevr1it2: give it time to fix itself, at least. Restarts are usually not needed.
[12:00] <ryu> pbx: hmm, strange. but i have to go to bed anyway. hopfully a mirical happens and it works again tomorrow...
[12:00] <stevr1it2> but it has finished
[12:01] <stevr1it2> i am restarting.
[12:01] <IlToNtO> what is the italian channel of ubuntu??
[12:01] <stevr1it2> rebooting
[12:01] <dabaR> !it
[12:01] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[12:01] <Rudemeister> !it
[12:02] <DrBanzai> Okay, I just plugged in my USB hard drive enclosure...how do I figure out what /dev to use to mount it?
[12:02] <PWizard> hiyas
[12:03] <zelevw> DrBanzai: system, administration, disks
[12:03] <DrBanzai> zelevw, Thanks
[12:03] <PWizard> I upgraded to the dapper drake beta a few days ago, and now I can't get KDM or GDM to start a KDE session.  It crashes right out to the display manager again.  If I use startx as the target user from the commandline, it works fine
[12:03] <stevr1it2> impossible to start server x Maybe is uncorectly configured do you want to se the output to understand the ..
[12:04] <Tedd> IIs there a system restore utiilty for Ubuntu?
[12:04] <stevr1it2> this is the line
[12:04] <PWizard> Any ideas?  This is really starting to chafe my caboose.
[12:04] <stevr1it2> dabaR what can id do?
[12:04] <dabaR> stevr1it2: run again sudo aptitude -f install until it gives no changes to the package system.
[12:04] <dabaR> It will say 0 packages to install, 0 to remove, and so on. All 0s.
[12:04] <stevr1it2> ok
[12:05] <_harm> PWizard what drivers u using?
[12:05] <stevr1it2> no change now
[12:05] <DrBanzai> zelevw, Hmmm...I don't have a disks, I have device manager...
[12:05] <konstandinos> ok ive configured all my network settings, do i just reboot my linux box or what?
[12:05] <stevr1it2> and now?
[12:05] <m6s> guys I believe I invented the linu again :-)
[12:05] <_harm> konstandinos u should never have to reboot :P but sometimes its just ez :D
[12:05] <m6s> linux
[12:05] <arrick> konstandinos, sudo /etc/init.d/netorking restart
[12:05] <stevr1it2> restart gdm?
[12:06] <PWizard> harm: nvidia-glx.  As I said, KDM runs fine, as does GDM, and KDE from startx.  So I'm doubtful that the driver has much to do with it
[12:06] <PWizard> also, this is AMD64
[12:06] <zelevw> DrBanzai: from the command line: sudo disks-admin
[12:06] <mustard5> Tedd, not by default and not exactly like you would get in XP
[12:06] <dabaR> stevr1it2: sudo aptitude install -f. Is there changes made by that?
[12:06] <IlToNtO> someone have a solution for the problem of the broadcom wireless card for acer in ubuntu 6.06??
[12:06] <konstandinos> what is init.d by the way?>
[12:06] <stevr1it2> no change now
[12:06] <Tedd> mustard5, Explain?
[12:06] <stevr1it2> what shall i do then?
[12:06] <dabaR> stevr1it2: send "/exec -o cat /etc/issue" as a message to our channel, like you send all other messages.
[12:06] <Sanne> konstandinos, you can also try 'ifdown eth0' and 'ifup eth0' (if eth0 is your network card)
[12:06] <DrBanzai> zelevw, command not found...I'm running 5.04...horay hedghog
[12:06] <arrick> IlToNtO, go to ubuntu+1 for dapper support please
[12:06] <konstandinos> thanks
[12:06] <konstandinos> it is
[12:07] <zelevw> DrBanzai: dmesg | grep /dev/hd
[12:07] <stevr1it2> i am in the other computer a laptop
[12:07] <IlToNtO> ok thanks arrik
[12:07] <Sanne> konstandinos, I forgot: prepend that with sudo
[12:07] <arrick> np
[12:07] <dabaR> stevr1it2: OK. tell me the output of cat /etc/issue
[12:07] <stevr1it2> ok
[12:07] <konstandinos> yup
[12:07] <stevr1it2> wait
[12:07] <Tedd> mustard5, would you be talking about backuppc
[12:07] <mustard5> Tedd, well the best way would be to look at the options available like sbackup and how they work
[12:08] <m6s> is there any gnome application like the kxdocker??? It is a very cool docker like MacOS having in the PC
[12:08] <m6s> ?
[12:08] <arrick> why arent the guys in #postfix very helpful?
[12:08] <PWizard> _harm: also, I've tried backing up my .kde and deleting it from my home directory; still no dice.
[12:08] <konstandinos> it's alive! thanks guys
[12:08] <dabaR> arrick: wrong time of day?
[12:08] <mustard5> Tedd, basically you have the option of backups that you can restore
[12:08] <dabaR> konstandinos: good work.
[12:08] <Sanne> konstandinos, cheers :)
[12:08] <mustard5> Tedd, not system restore points like XP has
[12:08] <DrBanzai> zelevw, Well, that wasn't helpful either, but when I do a demsg, the last line is: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
[12:08] <stevr1it2> it says Ubuntu 5.10 "breezy Badger" \n\l
[12:08] <zelevw> DrBanzai: sorry
[12:09] <DrBanzai> zelevw, Thanks though.
[12:09] <dabaR> stevr1it2: make your /etc/apt/sources.list file look like http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11487
[12:09] <Tedd> mustard5, looking into it :D
[12:09] <Tedd> It looks pretty solid though, thanks mustard5
[12:09] <_harm> Pwizard try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:09] <konstandinos> see, it's this feeling i'm experiencing right now, that is the reason i fell in love with computers as a kid
[12:09] <_harm> and then reboot
[12:09] <mustard5> Tedd, the backups could take the form of full system backups or incremental backups or even images of the hard drive as a backup
[12:09] <PWizard> _harm: just did that a minute ago, that didn't work either./
[12:09] <dabaR> _harm: reboot is only for a new kernel, really.
[12:10] <_harm> dabar half the time i have no cleu what i should reboot :P
[12:10] <mustard5> Tedd, something like mondorescue is interesting to use...or partimage makes images of paritions you can restore
[12:10] <stevr1it2> how?
[12:10] <stevr1it2> permission denied it says
[12:10] <arrick> I get the stuff posted at  the following while using the tutorial at  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Postfix    http://arrick.no-ip.com:8888/14     http://arrick.no-ip.com:8888/15   any help would be appreciated
[12:10] <_harm> Pwizard u have compiz right? otherwise glx wont work propperly i heard > try #ubuntu-glx
[12:10] <dabaR> stevr1it2: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list will open the file for editing. Open the web page on this computer, and then use it as a template to make the file on the other computer like what the web page shows.
[12:10] <arrick> this is a postfix problem I need help with
[12:11] <PWizard> _harm: compiz?
[12:11] <oskar_> ho
[12:11] <_harm> Pwizard hold on
[12:11] <_harm> "D
[12:11] <dabaR> stevr1it2: you need to use sudo when you get permission denied.
[12:11] <_harm> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto?highlight=%28xgl%29
[12:11] <dabaR> ubotu: tell stevr1it2 about sudo

[12:12] <stevr1it2> i am in the list
[12:12] <arrick> dabaR, another thing I learned today is to sudo su when permission is denied, then after the command, type exit
[12:12] <dabaR> stevr1it2: make the sources.list file look like this page: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11487
[12:12] <dabaR> stevr1it2: Except for the line numbers.
[12:12] <stevr1it2> ok, i need some time
[12:13] <stevr1it2> wiat a bit
[12:13] <Tedd> mustard5, mondorescue seems okay

[12:34] <nickrud> daryl, I run all windows stuff under windows. Sorry.
[12:34] <daryl> ok thanks
[12:34] <poningru> quit
[12:35] <nickrud> zorglu1, what do you mean, 'mandatory sudo stuff' ?
[12:35] <stevr1it2> i am rebooting daba>R
[12:35] <stevr1it2> dabaR
[12:36] <dabaR> stevr1it2: just run sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[12:36] <stevr1it2> ok
[12:36] <malachi> hello
[12:36] <zorglu1> nickrud: not sure in fact. in fact mediawiki got an automatic install process, able to automatically create mysql account. for that it requires the root passwd during the install. i type the proper passwd (several time to be sure) and it still fails... my guess is a conflict with the ubuntu sudo stuff...
[12:36] <malachi> please help
[12:37] <dabaR> please ask
[12:37] <nickrud> zorglu1, mediawiki (at least version 1.4.10) is available from the archives
[12:37] <malachi> i am
[12:37] <Seveas> @config channel plugins.changuard.enabled True
[12:37] <zorglu1> nickrud: yep i got it from there. trying to install it now
[12:38] <zorglu1> nickrud: the install is really well done and it explicitly say my root passwd is wrong
[12:38] <stevr1it2> the same
[12:38] <stevr1it2> impossibel to start server x
[12:38] <zorglu1> nickrud: i guess it fails to authenticate
[12:38] <malachi> dabaR: i'm trying to setup my wireless card, but, i can not connect to the internet because of this error :  ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
[12:38] <majorgeek> How do I change the permissions of my NTFS drive so that my non-root user can access it's contents?
[12:39] <bbrazil> majorgeek: sudo nano /etc/fstab <-- add umask=0222 to the options, umount and remount
[12:39] <malachi> dabaR: what is the problem?
[12:39] <majorgeek> k
[12:39] <nickrud> zorglu1, I've never tried installing mediawiki, but it's possible that the install does require a root password. You could give yourself one by using sudo passwd root
[12:39] <stevr1it2> it says
[12:39] <stevr1it2> x window system version 6.8.2 ubuntu 6.8.2-77.1
[12:39] <ScurveyFrog> hi, ubuntu won't save my settings between sessions
[12:39] <dabaR> malachi: I do not know. What does iwconfig return? use paste.ubuntu-nl.org.
[12:40] <ScurveyFrog> for example, even if I close all windows before exiting, the same windows are open at startup every time
[12:40] <bbrazil> zorglu1: mediawiki would only ask you for the mysql admin password
[12:40] <ScurveyFrog> what is this a problem with?
[12:40] <stevr1it2> and a lot of wwriting
[12:40] <zcat[1] > nickrud: if it'as asking for a root password for SQL, that's not the same as the normal root password. By default it's blank.
[12:40] <stevr1it2> check wiki.X.org
[12:40] <zorglu1> bbrazil: hmm ok this may be that. will try
[12:40] <nickrud> zcat[1] , bbrazil good that you're stepping in. I'll watch :)
[12:40] <stevr1it2> what can i do?
[12:40] <_jason> ScurveyFrog: delete ~/.gnome2/session
[12:40] <stevr1it2> dabaR
[12:40] <zcat[1] > had the same issue setting up mythtv
[12:41] <ScurveyFrog> thanks
[12:41] <malachi> dabaR:  how do i use that/
[12:41] <dabaR> stevr1it2: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:41] <_jason> ScurveyFrog: and check your system > preferences > sessions settings
[12:41] <zelevw> hi...is it possible to ssh to a computer to then get access to a port on another? thanks.
[12:41] <daaku> any run into an issue where the bitmap image quality is drastically reduced by a ps2pdf conversion?
[12:41] <ScurveyFrog> there we go, that was the problem
[12:41] <zorglu1> nickrud: bbrazil: thanks for your help. it indeed was asking for the mysql admin password
[12:42] <Rudemeister> zelevw: what? portforwarding?
[12:42] <stevr1it2> done
[12:42] <majorgeek> bbrazil, I added umask=0222 to fstab and wrote it out. so now it looks like 'defaults,umask=0222' I then umounted and remounted and I stillcan't access it as my user
[12:42] <ScurveyFrog> okay, one other problem: when I make changes in gconf-editor, it doesn't seem to do anything
[12:42] <majorgeek> /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults,umask=0222        0       0

[12:56] <djrandom> im having issues with both suspend to disk and ram on my sony vaio TX1HP
[12:56] <_harm> majorgeek did u check the wiki?
[12:57] <djrandom> in that its never worked- runnign dapper flight 7
[12:57] <biovore> majorgeek: what you tring to do..  mount a windows drive so you can read from it as your user in gnome/kde ?
[12:57] <fre4k> hi there
[12:58] <malachi> dabaR: no joy
[12:58] <fre4k> i'm watching a webcast in firefox using the mplayer plugin ... is there a way to save it ?
[12:58] <malachi> dabaR: no joy
[12:58] <majorgeek> biovore,  yes
[12:59] <mpmc> How do I execute a command on boot/login?
[12:59] <majorgeek> _harm,  I'm looking at the wiki now
[12:59] <dabaR> malachi: no IP address given to you?
[12:59] <djrandom> noone for the suspend issues? going... going....
[12:59] <_harm> majorgeek i recommend doing it manually the script doesnt always work 100%
[12:59] <malachi> dabaR: nope
[12:59] <dabaR> malachi: turn off the key on the router, then try without the key.
[12:59] <majorgeek> what script? lol
[12:59] <biovore> majorgeek: in /etc/fstab make sure the ro,user,noauto is in there for your windows drive..  then you should be able to mount it as a normal user ie 'mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows'  as aposed to using sudo
[12:59] <majorgeek> I'm trying to do it manually
[01:00] <_harm> majorgeek there is an automount script
[01:00] <_harm> !mount
[01:00] <ubotu> from memory, mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[01:00] <DrBanzai> How can I figure out why my USB hard drive isn't working?
[01:00] <nickrud> mpmc, where you put the command will depend on what you're trying to do
[01:00] <billytwowilly> look at dmesg
[01:00] <malachi> dabaR: nhow do i turn off the key
[01:01] <majorgeek> biovore, right now my options for my ntfs drive are "defaults,umask=0222,uid=1000"
[01:01] <DrBanzai> All dmesg ever says about it is: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
[01:01] <fre4k> i'm watching a webcast in firefox using the mplayer plugin ... is there a way to save it ?
[01:01] <biovore> majorgeek: all it needs to be is "user,noauto,ro"
[01:01] <_harm> fre4k right click > save steam? or something?
[01:02] <majorgeek> doesn't noauto mean no auto mounting?
[01:02] <biovore> majorgeek: then you should be able to mount it running mount as your normal user
[01:02] <mpmc> nickrud: I'm trying to execute the commands that I use to connect to my wireless network..
[01:02] <fre4k> _harm, while its playing is dont see any such option :(
[01:02] <dabaR> malachi: on the router, or on the computer?
[01:02] <Majd> Hey
[01:02] <majorgeek> and what if I want to be able to write to it?
[01:02] <Majd> how long would you say it takes to make a good graphical metacity theme?
[01:02] <malachi> dabaR: computer
[01:02] <_harm> majorgeek u wont be able to write to ntsf
[01:02] <dabaR> malachi: sudo iwconfig wlan0 key off
[01:03] <dabaR> malachi: man iwconfig
[01:03] <biovore> majorgeek: you have to recompile the kernel to get NTFS write support with ubuntu..  NTFS write support isn' garennited to be full correct..
[01:03] <malachi> dabaR: i'm using the wanadoo livebox
[01:03] <dabaR> I have to go.
[01:03] <_harm> majorgeek writing to ntsf can corrupt it :P
[01:03] <djrandom> laters dabaR
[01:03] <djrandom> :)
[01:03] <majorgeek> bah
[01:03] <majorgeek> my windows drive got jcked anyways lol
[01:03] <_harm> ^^
[01:03] <majorgeek> trying to install ubuntu with an unknowingly corrupt cd burn
[01:04] <_harm> hehe :D
[01:04] <majorgeek> and my MBR went poof
[01:04] <nickrud> mpmc, create a file in /etc/init.d/ that has the commands you want run; then do sudo update-rc.d <yourscriptname> defaults
[01:04] <harisund> Does anybody here listen to the online BBC radio? What do you use to play the .ra RealAudio files?
[01:04] <mpmc> ok
[01:05] <majorgeek> RAWR
[01:05] <majorgeek> still permission denied
[01:05] <majorgeek> when I try to do ls /media/hda1
[01:05] <nickrud> mpmc, that will create a link in /etc/rc2.d (and the rest of the rcX.d dirs) that will be executed on startup
[01:06] <biovore> majorgeek: what you do to mount it?
[01:06] <majorgeek> mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /media/hda1
[01:06] <biovore> as your user?
[01:06] <majorgeek> it won't let me as my user
[01:07] <luisito> I'm trying Dapper and by know it is very stable but I don't know why they removed the option "save this session" from the log out dialog.
[01:07] <biovore> majorgeek: in your fstab you have "user,noauto,ro" in your /etc/fstab
[01:08] <majorgeek> yes
[01:08] <majorgeek> sec i'll paste the line to you in private
[01:08] <biovore> ok
[01:08] <nickrud> luisito, no clue, but you should be able to run gnome-session-save from a terminal (I'm in breezy at the moment and can't test that it's still there)
[01:08] <malachi> dabaR: no luck
[01:09] <luisito> nickrud, they should put that where it was.
[01:10] <HoboTurtle> hello

[01:17] <bodaciousb> nickrud, thanks
[01:18] <zuhause01> from me to nickrud :D
[01:18] <nickrud> I HATE find (because I'm too lazy to learn :)
[01:18] <zuhause01> :D
[01:19] <zuhause01> u know anything bout hdparm?
[01:19] <apokryphos> JuNiOr-Ma: no caps or flooding please.
[01:19] <leagris> has anyone here be able tou mount nfs4 from ubuntu. It appear mount.nfs4 is missing
[01:19] <nickrud> not a whole lot, enough for my ancient drives
[01:19] <lakin> anyone get the following error when trying to suspend to RAM: ERROR: Couldn't attach to DCOP server!   ?
[01:20] <djrandom> congrats to the ppl who fixed the laptop-mode issues on dapper :D
[01:20] <zuhause01> hm,ok
[01:20] <apokryphos> lakin: #kubuntu
[01:20] <lakin> apokryphos: I'm not running kubuntu ...
[01:20] <djrandom> hibernate works really well now (down in under 20 secs, up in the same time) on my VAIO TX1HP
[01:20] <stpere> someone can give tips on how I could enhance font rendering on my ubuntu desktop?
[01:20] <Majd> how long would you say it takes to make a good graphical metacity theme?
[01:21] <apokryphos> lakin: DCOP is kde's desktop communication protocol. Gnome has nothing to do with it, afaik.
[01:21] <djrandom> quite possibly the largest improvment in dapper that ive noticed
[01:21] <lakin> apokryphos: Yes, that's correct ... which is why it's strange that I'm getting it when trying to suspend ...
[01:22] <mirak> hi
[01:22] <apokryphos> lakin: breezy?
[01:22] <lakin> dapper
[01:22] <lakin> oh right ..
[01:22] <apokryphos> then you shouldn't be in here '=_
[01:22] <lakin> we don't do dapper support here. :)
[01:22] <lakin> heh, I keep forgetting that it's not out yet .
[01:22] <apokryphos> =)
[01:22] <lakin> Sorry bout that ..
[01:22] <apokryphos> no worries
[01:23] <mirak> I built a custom kernel with fglrx proprietary driver. I want to kjnow if dist-upgrades will break the custom kernel plus the fglrx built I did or not
[01:23] <apokryphos> lakin: #ubuntu+1 :)
[01:23] <sethk> mirak, yes
[01:24] <mirak> sethk: the fglrx module that was put in /lib/modules for the cuxtom kernel will be removed ?
[01:24] <sethk> mirak, if the kernel version is the same, yes
[01:24] <Spitty> HoboTurtle, are you still there?
[01:24] <sethk> mirak, if the kernel version is different, a different directory in /lib/modules will be created and used
[01:24] <HoboTurtle> yes
[01:24] <sethk> mirak, either way, you lose it.
[01:24] <HoboTurtle> i am here
[01:25] <mirak> sethk: ok but they can't be the same since the path are different right ?
[01:25] <Spitty> ok, I'd like you to test something for me
[01:25] <HoboTurtle> sure
[01:25] <Spitty> open up a terminal, and copy this in:  sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:25] <Rug> Howdy all
[01:26] <HoboTurtle> Spitty, it opened up an editor(?)
[01:26] <Spitty> that's the idea
[01:26] <HoboTurtle> :)
[01:26] <mirak> I have /lib/modules/2.6.15.6-ubuntu1 for the custom and /lib/modules/2.6.15-21-k7 for the ubuntu provided image
[01:27] <mirak> sethk: so you say that the module inside 2.6.15.6-ubuntu will be removed ?
[01:27] <RedEyess> Hi
[01:27] <RedEyess> I am using XMMS
[01:27] <RedEyess> and the fonts are too big
[01:27] <Spitty> Next, scroll down in that file until you get to the area that says       Driver   "i810"
[01:27] <RedEyess> it's because it is using gtk1.2, I think
[01:27] <thedj> anyone experience with samba ?
[01:27] <thedj> i can't get "guest" access to work
[01:27] <sethk> mirak, if you are using 2.6.15.6-ubuntu1, a name you invented, then, no it won't be erased
[01:27] <HoboTurtle> siptty yes i am there
[01:27] <RedEyess> I have updated my .gtkrc file
[01:27] <mirak> RedEyess: use Listen instead . http:/listen.gnome.free.fr
[01:27] <sethk> mirak, but of course it won't be used.  You'll have to edit grub.conf and point it at your kernel
[01:28] <RedEyess> hmmm.
[01:28] <Spitty> ok, good, so you have the correct driver loaded already
[01:28] <Spitty> you can close down that window
[01:28] <sethk> mirak, remember, you can always back up your modules directory and restore it later.
[01:28] <HoboTurtle> hmm
[01:28] <RedEyess> Listen doesn't exist
[01:28] <Spitty> HoboTurtle, You have an older intel graphics accelerator- the driver you have now is as good as it gets in linux, I think
[01:29] <Spitty> have you already tried ET in linux?
[01:29] <HoboTurtle> it works
[01:29] <HoboTurtle> the sound works
[01:29] <HoboTurtle> but i get black screen
[01:29] <mirak> sethk: that's the kernel I use, and it works. I just want to know if I can upgrade without breaking it. I know I will need to rebuild a custom one when I will want to change the kernel. I have a 9600pro and it needs to not use atiradeon module. THat's weird but otherwise dri doesn't work
[01:29] <Spitty> I was afraid of that
[01:29] <HoboTurtle> or "blank" screen
[01:29] <Spitty> right
[01:29] <HoboTurtle> so its physically impossible?
[01:30] <Spitty> I don't think the i810 drivers support hardware acceleration... at least, nothing more than you have now
[01:30] <nickrud> RedEyess, try beep-media-player, it doesn't have all the plugins that xmms does but it works better with gtk2
[01:30] <Spitty> Sorry man
[01:30] <sethk> mirak, depends what you mean by "breaking".  It will no longer use your kernel because the update will modify grub.conf.  But that's not a problem, you just change it back after the upgrade
[01:30] <HoboTurtle> :(
[01:30] <Spitty> I know, it stinks
[01:30] <HoboTurtle> but it works well on windows OS
[01:30] <ThreeFinity> Can anybody help me mount my ntfs drive as my user account?
[01:30] <ThreeFinity> editing fstab doesn't help
[01:30] <ThreeFinity> and adding myself to the group file doesn't help
[01:30] <Spitty> that's because companies spend most of their time on the windows drivers, and only do the linux drivers as an afterthought
[01:31] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, could you put your /etc/fstab on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[01:31] <ThreeFinity> sure
[01:31] <mirak> sethk: ok. In fact I am just afraid that the package xorg-fglrx once uypgraded remove the kernel. But I used module assistant so that's maybe not related
[01:31] <_mark> Can someone please tell me how to set my IP address?
[01:31] <sethk> mirak, since your kernel name is different, installing the upgrade will write a new modules directory, but it will not have the same name.  Had you modified the kernel and built it using the same name, then installing a new kernel (again with the same name) would clobber it.  You see?
[01:31] <RedEyess> I am using 5.10, it doesn't work with this version of Ubuntu
[01:31] <HoboTurtle> this blows...
[01:31] <HoboTurtle> so there's now way i can run this game on ubuntu?
[01:31] <HoboTurtle> *no way
[01:31] <sethk> mirak, I don't know what module assistant does.  I just edit files.  Presumably you'll have to repeat that part.
[01:31] <mirak> sethk: ok I was just afraid it would remove the module from /lib/modules/*custom*
[01:31] <nickrud> RedEyess, I've been using beep-media-player from the 5.10 repos just fine
[01:31] <sethk> mirak, as long as you have used a different name, you are safe
[01:32] <Spitty> HoboTurtle, let me do a bit more research
[01:32] <ThreeFinity> nickrud, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13603
[01:32] <Blissex> HoboTurtle: which game was that?
[01:32] <sethk> mirak, but back it up anyway.  :)   back up _everything_ anyway, everything that you would be upset about losing
[01:32] <HoboTurtle> blissex: Enemy Territory
[01:32] <HoboTurtle> its an online fps game
[01:32] <mirak> sethk: I will backup you are right :)
[01:32] <sethk> mirak, we're talking about what will happen in the normal case, but strangeness is always possible.
[01:32] <Blissex> HoboTurtle: yes, I have it it is pretty OK.
[01:32] <HoboTurtle> argargarag
[01:32] <HoboTurtle> i dont have the right machine for that game
[01:32] <Blissex> HoboTurtle: it should sort of stutter along even on your card.
[01:33] <HoboTurtle> that's my favorte game.....
[01:33] <HoboTurtle> lol
[01:33] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, I've been using nls=utf8,ro,auto,umask=0000 for the option field in fstab just fine ...
[01:33] <HoboTurtle> sucks i have to go back to windows which crashes after 2hrs of formatting
[01:33] <thejnaitor> hey everybody... I am having an issue with not being able to Remote Desktop in to my Ubuntu system... I get the error "Unable to connect: Connection refused". Any ideas?
[01:33] <HoboTurtle> my computer is sooo bad
[01:33] <ThreeFinity> well, can't hurt to try that lol
[01:33] <HoboTurtle> i format my comp....download updates....reboot...BAM blue screen....CRASH
[01:34] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, :)
[01:34] <RedEyess> I have been recompiling the beep player
[01:34] <Blissex> HoboTurtle: why do you say it is not right?
[01:34] <RedEyess> but I get the error, no sglib
[01:34] <HoboTurtle> Blissex, what do u mean...
[01:34] <nickrud> RedEyess, try sudo aptg-get build-dep beep-media-player (that'll pull in all the deps) but, first, I'd try the repo one
[01:35] <nickrud> RedEyess, er, apt-get build-dep beep-media-player
[01:35] <ThreeFinity> still won't let me
[01:35] <ThreeFinity> says only root can do that
[01:36] <BockBilbo> hello
[01:36] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, did you umount and remount /dev/hda1 ?
[01:36] <ThreeFinity> keep in mind this is a fresh install of ubuntu 5.10 and I'm fairly noobish with linux
[01:36] <ThreeFinity> it's not mounted to begin with
[01:36] <mirak> it would nice that gnome mounts samba share like OS X does using automount. vfs usage for samba just sucks and you need applications like players to specifically support its, while with automount that's like a hard mount
[01:36] <BockBilbo> im trying to configure /etc/sudoers to allow an user from my system to run firestarter without prompting sudo password
[01:36] <ThreeFinity> and it won't let me mount it as user
[01:36] <Spitty> HoboTurtle, you may have a hope afterall
[01:36] <HoboTurtle> !!!!
[01:36] <ubotu> HoboTurtle: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:36] <RedEyess> nickrud: thanks by the way
[01:37] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, mount | sort ; does /dev/hda1 show up in that?
[01:37] <BockBilbo> this worked for me in hoary but not in breezy, it seens i need to allow display access or smthing like that
[01:37] <BockBilbo> any idea?
[01:37] <nickrud> RedEyess, yw
[01:37] <Spitty> HoboTurtle: I don't know if this is going to work, but here we go
[01:37] <ThreeFinity> no
[01:37] <Spitty> open up a terminal, and  run  glxinfo
[01:37] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, then it's not mounted at all
[01:37] <ThreeFinity> I know...
[01:37] <ThreeFinity> I'm trying to mount it as my user
[01:37] <ThreeFinity> and it won't let me
[01:38] <christian> has anybodhad any luck with freenx using the packages from http://kanotix.com/files/debian/pool/main/f/freenx/ ?
[01:38] <ThreeFinity> ok here's a simpler question for now
[01:38] <nickrud> ThreeFinity ah. add  user  to that option list
[01:38] <daaku> anyone using cups-pdf on dapper? i've setup the printer, and i see the spool files in /var/spool/cups, but cups-pdf doesnt seem to pick them up
[01:38] <ThreeFinity> how do I run Rhythmbox music player as root?
[01:38] <thejnaitor> can anybody assist me in getting Remote Desktop to work? Or point me to a channel where I might get some more info?
[01:38] <ThreeFinity> atleast I can lsiten to music while I work on this that way lol
[01:38] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, you don't even want to. You nearly never want to run a gui program as root
[01:38] <ThreeFinity> yes
[01:39] <ThreeFinity> well I want music
[01:39] <ThreeFinity> for now anyways
[01:39] <Spitty> HoboTurtle, you there?
[01:39] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, try this: sudo mount /dev/hda1
[01:39] <christian> nobody has had luck with freenx?
[01:40] <ThreeFinity> wow it worked
[01:40] <ThreeFinity> now let's see if rhytmbox can access it
[01:40] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, whenever you boot, you will have access to hda1 from now on
[01:41] <ThreeFinity> lol new problem
[01:42] <k31th> wats that site
[01:42] <k31th> where u can buy mp3s
[01:42] <nickrud> daaku, if I remember right, you need to change the user that cups runs as for cups-pdf to work. The file /usr/share/doc/cups-pdf/README has the details
[01:42] <ThreeFinity> rhytmbox is saying "this file is not an audio stream"
[01:42] <ThreeFinity> when I try to add my songs to my playlist
[01:42] <ThreeFinity> they're mp3's
[01:42] <nickrud> !mp3
[01:42] <ubotu> methinks mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[01:42] <ThreeFinity> oh
[01:42] <Spitty> HoboTurtle, I need to go eat dinner.  I'll be back in a bit, but in the meanwhile, take a look at this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=47027&highlight=intel+810+dri
[01:43] <christian> doesn't vlc play mp3s?
[01:43] <k31th> ThreeFinity: i had that problem i had the codecs
[01:43] <nickrud> yes
[01:43] <skon> christian: try the freenx packages from http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx/
[01:43] <k31th> it was just being a pos
[01:43] <skon> worked for me
[01:43] <k31th> i was reading ir from ntfs
[01:43] <k31th> not sure if that mad any diff
[01:43] <k31th> bitch all day
[01:44] <christian> skon: thanks :)
[01:44] <k31th> yet xmms amarok etc worked great
[01:44] <nickrud> rhythmbox uses gstreamer as the backend, you need to install the proper pacakge (gstreamer0.8-mad) for mp3's.
[01:44] <skon> your welcome
[01:44] <k31th> rhythmbox raped my db on my ipod as well
[01:44] <k31th> had to factory reset it.
[01:44] <nix_chix0r> hmmmmm
[01:44] <Toba|BSD> anyone know what the package name for libstdc++ is in the breezy repositories?
[01:45] <Rawplayer> Toba|BSD: search for it?
[01:45] <Toba|BSD> already did
[01:45] <apokryphos> Toba|BSD: what?
[01:45] <Toba|BSD> just a bunch of bug reports
[01:45] <Toba|BSD> and mostly in spanish
[01:46] <Rawplayer> chang?
[01:46] <Rawplayer> ermm.
[01:46] <Rawplayer> what?
[01:46] <apokryphos> Toba|BSD: /msg ubotu find libstdc++
[01:47] <mirak> what os x does is better. When you enter into the network neighbourghood path, it list the domains as foldders into something like /samba/domainsX then when you enter into a domain there is the computers, then when you enter into a share, the share is mounted like when you do a smbmount
[01:48] <ThreeFinity> apt-get = owange btw
[01:48] <ThreeFinity> all of ubuntu does so far
[01:48] <apokryphos> owange?
[01:48] <ThreeFinity> I've never been so happy with how easy it is to operate a full fledged distro
[01:48] <_jason> maybe orange
[01:48] <ThreeFinity> ownage*
[01:48] <ThreeFinity> it's still morning
[01:48] <ThreeFinity> but yeh I suppose ubuntu does = orange..and brown
[01:50] <christian> skon: The link you provided me works.  Thanks.  However, when I use freenx on CentOs, my fonts and images load correctly while here it does not.  Must I change the node.conf file?
[01:51] <christian> for example, that icons on the desktop (trash, home, documents) do not appear
[01:53] <ThreeFinity> what's the best music player for ubuntu64?
[01:53] <ThreeFinity> I like thigsn with heavy GUI's
[01:53] <ThreeFinity> lots of features
[01:54] <nishit> #ubuntu-moto
[01:54] <PWizard> hey, where can I set up the DPI setting for KDE via KDM?
[01:56] <livingdaylight> can someone tell me where .fonts is stored
[01:56] <nickrud> livingdaylight, in your home dir, ~/.fonts
[01:57] <livingdaylight> nickrud: i see a folder called fonts but not .fonts
[01:58] <nickrud> livingdaylight, fontconfig (the thing that handles fonts for you) will be looking for ~/.fonts , you must create it if you want to use it
[01:58] <ThreeFinity> argh there's nothing in the ubuntu wiki about isntalling ATI drivers
[01:58] <nickrud> !ati
[01:58] <ubotu> methinks ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[01:58] <apokryphos> PWizard: kdm is...... #kubuntu ;-), but I doubt dpi would be set by kdm. It's more likely to be somewhere in xserver file
[01:59] <apokryphos> ThreeFinity: there is :)
[01:59] <ThreeFinity> Ah thanks
[01:59] <ThreeFinity> was looking in the video section
[01:59] <ThreeFinity> imagine that..
[02:00] <PWizard> apokryphos: Ah, thanks
[02:00] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, I'm not sure where you're talking about, but if it's appropriate you might want to edit the wiki so where you were would take you where you wanted to be
[02:00] <ThreeFinity> erm
[02:00] <ThreeFinity> don't know anything about wiki's
[02:00] <ThreeFinity> never used one before
[02:00] <ThreeFinity> lol
[02:00] <nickrud> gotta start somewhere :)
[02:00] <ThreeFinity> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Video that's where I was
[02:01] <ThreeFinity> well I wouldn't want to mess up such a nice looking wiki
[02:01] <ThreeFinity> lol
[02:01] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, well, first line on that page :)
[02:01] <ThreeFinity> oh
[02:02] <thejnaitor> is there any sort of firewall enabled by default in ubuntu?
[02:02] <HymnToLife> yes
[02:02] <nickrud> thejnaitor, no there is not
[02:02] <HymnToLife> !iptables
[02:02] <apokryphos> well
[02:02] <apokryphos> !firewall
[02:02] <ubotu> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
[02:03] <nickrud> thejnaitor, well, no firewall rules set up by default.
[02:03] <thejnaitor> well, what I am wondering is if I have to open a hole to be able to Remote Desktop in
[02:03] <thejnaitor> other than opening a hole in my router
[02:04] <Blissex> thejnaitor: SSH...
[02:04] <nickrud> thejnaitor, if you have a default install, no
[02:04] <ThreeFinity> isn't that supposed to be thejanitor?
[02:04] <thejnaitor> ok, thanks
[02:04] <thejnaitor> hehe... no, it's not
[02:04] <ThreeFinity> oh lol ok
[02:04] <thejnaitor> I spelled it how I wanted
[02:06] <HoboTurtle> how do i register on this server?
[02:06] <leagris> NFSv4 support seems quite alpha in Ubuntu (not working in reality). What other networked filesystem would you recommand in a mixed OS environment (Ubuntu, Mandrake, MacOSX) to provide users with secured and roaming home dirs and netork shares secured acces to groups ?
[02:07] <HoboTurtle> Spitty: are u still there?
[02:07] <nickrud> !register
[02:07] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[02:08] <simonpca> ++
[02:09] <thedj> leagris: NFSv3 ?
[02:09] <leagris> I already set up a Kerberos KDC and had to verride ubuntu libpam-krb5 with a debian one because of a bug in password changes.
[02:09] <HoboTurtle> shiiiiiiiet
[02:09] <thedj> leagris: basically filesharing still sucks :(
[02:09] <leagris> thedj, NFSv4 provide no security at all though
[02:09] <livingdaylight> i can't install GDM themes
[02:09] <leagris> NFSv3 I mean
[02:10] <thedj> true
[02:10] <HoboTurtle> yay im registered
[02:10] <leagris> thedj, roamign home dires let my childs use any computer at home and still getting their home dir and desktop environment
[02:10] <leagris> dirs
[02:10] <thedj> smb works the best cross platform atm. but of course it's the worst thing ever
[02:10] <livingdaylight> i drag a theme from the home folder into the system/theme window click install but invalid file comes up ?
[02:10] <thedj> and a pain to setup cross platform
[02:11] <leagris> thedj, currently using NFSv3 but any friend comming with a lapton can access home dires provided he mount it with the same userid
[02:11] <nickrud> livingdaylight, you could try untarring them in /usr/share/gdm/themes ; you also need to edit GtkThemesToAllow in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[02:11] <konstandinos> heys guys: my ubuntu box boots automatically into command line mode. when i need gui mode (rare) i run 'startx'. now i'm in gui mode, and when i try load a program from the system menu (ie: networking or synaptic), it prompts for password, which i type in (correctly), and then i get the error: "failed to run program-name as user root: unable to copy the user's Xauthorisation file." - ideas?
[02:12] <minerale> Wohoo, VIM 7 is out!
[02:12] <nickrud> !editor wars
[02:12] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, nickrud
[02:13] <leagris> thedj, mmm ok smbfs/cifs that may be a solution. Do you have an opinion on AFSs mac support and Ubuntu support though ?
[02:14] <Bain_> Hey, anyone know if there is a way to disable tooltips in gnome?  All i'm finding on Google is a big debate about if it's a feature or a bug but not how to do it ;(
[02:14] <nickrud> livingdaylight, my advice may not apply to the full screen themes, only the themes that have a window :)
[02:14] <lampshade> Hey, I have little lines scrolling across my LCD laptop screen, anyone happen to know the cause?  I tried upping the resolution by changing the 1280x800@60 line in xorg.conf with 1280x800@75, but nothing seemed to change and furthermore I couldn't change the 60 listed in the gnome menu.
[02:14] <chopsuey> hi
[02:15] <chopsuey> i m using ubuntu live cd how do i eject cd because i want to write something to cd from my harddrive
[02:15] <livingdaylight> nickrud: that have a window?
[02:15] <livingdaylight> upon booting up you mean?
[02:16] <lampshade> chopsuey, right click on CD and eject.  If that doesn't work, make sure nothing is using it and then do umount /media/cdrom0 and then try to just press the button and eject it
[02:16] <Jim2> is there any way to re-run that whole network autoconf wizard made available in the installer?
[02:16] <nickrud> livingdaylight, if you go to system-admin-login screen setup, the general tab has a line Local: where you can have gtk+ greeter (the window one I was talking about) and themed greeter (the default gdm style)
[02:17] <chopsuey> eject: unable to find or open device for: `/dev/cdroms/cdrom0'
[02:17] <Jim2> i've managed to totally mess up my ubuntu network stuff
[02:18] <arrick> nickrud, yes
[02:18] <arrick> but if power goes out, you gotta put it back in
[02:18] <konstandinos> sorry to repeat myself, but...
[02:18] <konstandinos> heys guys: my ubuntu box boots automatically into command line mode. when i need gui mode (rare) i run 'startx'. now i'm in gui mode, and when i try load a program from the system menu (ie: networking or synaptic), it prompts for password, which i type in (correctly), and then i get the error: "failed to run program-name as user root: unable to copy the user's Xauthorisation file." - ideas?
[02:18] <nickrud> arrick, that's very cool then.
[02:19] <arrick> delete the xauth file
[02:19] <lufis> Hi. I recently wrote about my experience with photo management in Linux and I think it might interest some of you hearing opinions from a newbie. http://sufis.wordpress.com/2006/05/07/photo-management-in-linux/
[02:19] <konstandinos> where do i find that
[02:19] <lampshade> I wish Picasa had a Linux edition :-/
[02:19] <konstandinos> the xauth file that is
[02:20] <chopsuey> lampshade : ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ umount /media/cdrom0
[02:20] <chopsuey> umount: /media/cdrom0 is not mounted (according to mtab)
[02:20] <__mikem> I wish VMware actually ran ubuntu at a desent speed
[02:20] <arrick> anyone, is there any way to make my server where i can view the apache pages using their domain NAMES instead of ip addresses on my ocal network, something to do with /etc/hosts ?
[02:20] <nickrud> konstandinos, ~/.Xauthority
[02:20] <konstandinos> ta
[02:20] <arrick> thanks nickrud
[02:21] <konstandinos> wait is that ~ or / directory?
[02:21] <nickrud> konstandinos, home dir (~)
[02:21] <konstandinos> k
[02:21] <konstandinos> ta
[02:21] <lampshade> hmm  I don't know for sure, still kinda new at this myself.  If you press the eject button on it your self it doesn't do anything right now?  do you have more than one drive?
[02:21] <lufis> Can anyone tell me of an easy to use photo import wizard?
[02:21] <lampshade> my .Xauthority gets corrupted a lot too :-/
[02:21] <chopsuey> it doesnt do anything i have 1 drive
[02:22] <lampshade> lufis, Fspot is the best I've found for linux right now, until Picasa comes out for Linux which google engineers have off handedly mentioned (nothing official) would happen eventually
[02:22] <nickrud> lufis, I've heard that gthumb can do that, but don't quote me unless it works :)
[02:22] <chopsuey> its ridiculus that i cant eject cd
[02:22] <konstandinos> thats odd - i don't have a .XAuthority file in my home directory
[02:22] <konstandinos> or am i confused?
[02:22] <lufis> lampshade, thank you
[02:23] <nickrud> konstandinos, .Xauthority (lower case a)
[02:23] <konstandinos> yeah i dont have it
[02:23] <konstandinos> ls -al | grep .x
[02:23] <konstandinos> returns nothing
[02:23] <konstandinos> ls -al | grep .X i mean
[02:23] <konstandinos> oh wait
[02:23] <konstandinos> lol
[02:23] <nickrud> wierd grep :)
[02:23] <lampshade> chopsuey, that happens to me sometimes, but it is always a matter of like some program using it or something like that.  What was the last program you were using that was using the cdrom?  I'm not sure unfortunately, perhaps someone else knows more than me
[02:23] <livingdaylight> nickrud: thank you, i think i achieved what i wanted for my login window
[02:23] <konstandinos> its there, my bad
[02:23] <konstandinos> so i just delete it?
[02:24] <nickrud> yes, while in the console
[02:24] <chopsuey> last thing i do was mounting my harddrive
[02:24] <lampshade> konstandinos, it is auto regenerated don't worry about it
[02:24] <nickrud> livingdaylight, gdm themes are not easy, congrats :)
[02:24] <delmar> hey everyone.  ok so I have 2 boxen both running ubuntu. systemA has the amp+speakers systemB has none but does have sound hardware if I decided to go for the simple option and run a cable between them.. however.. many years ago I remember being able to pipe sound over the network ... but it was so long ago.. is this still possible and can it be done with ubuntu?
[02:24] <bigbill50> does anyone know which pc card will work native to ubuntu
[02:24] <chopsuey> i did "mount -t reiserfs /dev/hd bla bla bla'
[02:25] <livingdaylight> nickrud: yea, the breakthrough was like yoiu said, to bring it to the right folder which in this case was /usr/share/gdm/theme
[02:25] <lampshade> chopsuey, are you using the livecd? (thought I should ask)
[02:25] <bigbill50> oops wireless pc card
[02:25] <livingdaylight> after that i just selected from the gui the one i wanted
[02:25] <chopsuey> yes
[02:25] <konstandinos> ok well i deleted the .Xauthority file, ran startx again, clicked on system menu -> admin -> synaptic, type in password (correctly), and still get same error
[02:26] <delmar> chopsuey,  id like to offer a comment regarding reiserFS... I had issues with it.. files turning up with permissions like " - - - - - - - - - " and stuff. started using XFS.. that works nice... but now im using ext3
[02:26] <bimberi> ubotu tell bigbill50 about wireless
[02:26] <konstandinos> "failed to run program-name as user root: unable to copy the user's xauthorisation file2
[02:26] <livingdaylight> nickrud: but it is not intuitive. How is one supposed to know where these folders are in the first place?
[02:26] <bimberi> bigbill50: the wiki page ubotu should have /msg'd you should have some info about supported cards
[02:26] <no0tic> hi,in xgl I lost an application menu via a keyb shortcut, how can I make it visible?
[02:26] <lampshade> chopsuey, oh hahaha, then no you can't eject it lol.  the whole OS is running off of it, I don't know of a way you can, someone else might know, but I'm pretty sure that it is not possible
[02:27] <delmar> So.. is there a way to feed audio out of one ubuntu desktop/os  over the network and into another.. network line in/out ?
[02:27] <nickrud> livingdaylight, it is actually pretty intuitive: nearly all packages have support files in /usr/share ; I just added gdm, and looked there for a refresh
[02:27] <Steve^> Is there an app for chopping up mp3 files?
[02:28] <ThreeFinity> Hmm I'm trying to follow the instructions for installing ATI's binary driver package located here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI and I'm having problems with this step: sudo module-assistant build,install fglrx-kernel
[02:28] <bimberi> Steve^: i think audacity can do that
[02:28] <arrick> anyone, is there any way to make my server where i can view the apache pages using their domain NAMES instead of ip addresses on my ocal network, something to do with /etc/hosts ?
[02:28] <arrick> local network\
[02:28] <Steve^> bimberi, thanks, i'll check it out
[02:28] <arrick> whaddup bimberi
[02:28] <chopsuey> lampshade : "shit" :) i dont want to believe
[02:28] <bimberi> hey arrick :)
[02:28] <lampshade> arrick, yeah on your machine, you can just add them there, I have for example  a line that says 192.168.1.1 router  so that when I do http://router/ it goes right to my router
[02:28] <ThreeFinity> If anyone could help me that would be great.
[02:28] <livingdaylight> nickrud: as long as i learn something everyday : ) now that i know /usr/share is where to look. Usually, i just save in home folder and hope it works from there
[02:29] <nickrud> arrick, if I remember correctly, you could add a line 192.168.x.x hostname.domain hostname ; it's been a while though
[02:29] <chopsuey> i want to shoot myself in the head then
[02:29] <arrick> lampshade, I added a line like that but it doesnt work, maybe I am missing something, hang on I will post it
[02:30] <konstandinos> ok well i deleted the .Xauthority file, ran startx again, clicked on system menu -> admin -> synaptic, type in password (correctly), and still get same error
[02:30] <konstandinos> "failed to run program-name as user root: unable to copy the user's xauthorisation file2
[02:30] <nickrud> livingdaylight, heh. The filesystem is pretty well defined, but learning where to look can be steep :)
[02:30] <chopsuey> thanx anyway lampshade
[02:30] <chopsuey> for the bad new
[02:31] <Steve^> bimberi, it appears it would edit the mp3s.. if it actually worked. Do I need some special settings, like using xine with totem?
[02:31] <ThreeFinity>  Bad luck, the kernel headers for the target kernel version could not be found and you did not specify other valid kernel headers to use.   <- I get that when tryind to do 'sudo module-assistant build,install fglrx-kernel'
[02:32] <gymsmoke> i just finished setting up ubuntu 5.10 server, and, running top, i notice these processes:  md0_raid1 through md4_raid1...
[02:32] <lampshade> arrick, all I added was another line that said "192.168.1.1 hrouter" without quotes, that's all :-/ hmmm
[02:33] <arrick> ok
[02:33] <delmar> Whats the ubuntu way of creating an LVM ... just do it on the command line or is there another way.. perhaps a GUI app to install?
[02:34] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, did you install the kernel headers? (my only help on this one, I don't use ati)
[02:34] <bimberi> Steve^: it won't have mp3 support by default (due to mp3 being non-free) so it needs to be enabled, nothing on the wiki though, forums might
[02:35] <lampshade> ati support is annoying in Linux, I really wish ATI would get it together.  Wayyyy easier to install nvidia drivers.  (Unfortunately my laptop is ATI)
[02:35] <hastesaver> bimberi, nothing on the wiki? about what?
[02:35] <arrick> lampshade, nickrud http://arrick.no-ip.com:8888/18
[02:35] <Steve^> bimberi, well, this is a shame. Would hate to have to go do this windows...
[02:35] <lampshade> Anyone know of a place that sells little Linux stickers like the little windows stickers?
[02:35] <nickrud> is there an nvidia laptop out there?
[02:35] <Steve^> the audacity website doesn't seem to think of this problem
[02:35] <bimberi> hastesaver: enabling mp3 input/output in audacity
[02:35] <hastesaver> bimberi, get Lame, then do import/export
[02:36] <hastesaver> Steve^, or do you need somethhing more than that?
[02:36] <crimsun> lampshade: see http://jonathancarter.co.za/?p=26
[02:36] <lampshade> arrick, I don't think you can do port numbers and that /18 I don't think that's valid syntax.  I usually just do the ip and then specifically enter the port as needed later if I need to.
[02:36] <gymsmoke> with apache, mysql, dns, qmail, and proftpd, the server seems to slow down quite a bit
[02:36] <arrick> ok
[02:36] <hastesaver> Steve^, In fact, it does the importing automatically, and you can export as mp3. What more do you need?
[02:37] <Hexidigital> is there some way i can connect to my ubuntu server from my windows xp laptop (when i'm at school?)
[02:37] <hastesaver> Hexidigital, telnet?
[02:37] <ThreeFinity> nickrud,  guess what I learned lol
[02:37] <gymsmoke> ssh
[02:37] <ThreeFinity> nickrud,  if I follow the onscreen instructions it fixes things
[02:37] <Hexidigital> hastesaver: i tried, but it keeps saying connection refused
[02:37] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, rlol
[02:37] <gymsmoke> Hexidigital: ssh
[02:37] <arrick> lampshade, this look better?
[02:37] <arrick> http://arrick.no-ip.com:8888/19
[02:37] <Hexidigital> gymsmoke: ah... good deal :) thank you
[02:38] <hastesaver> Hexidigital, you need to set up a telnet server on your computer first (or something). Make it "listen" on the telnet port, etc...
[02:38] <gymsmoke> anyone here done any tuning with ubuntu server  ?
[02:38] <Hexidigital> hastesaver: i'm still listening :)
[02:38] <Hexidigital> id like more than one way to connect
[02:38] <Steve^> hastesaver/ bimberi:  When I open it, i get this error: There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer. You will not be able to play or record audio. Error: Host error.
[02:38] <Steve^> I can go on, but nothing works
[02:38] <Steve^> that's opening audacity
[02:38] <hastesaver> Hexidigital, ssh is easier to set up (rather, I've set up ssh and not tried telnet); and you can use putty to ssh from Windows
[02:38] <Steve^> I just installe LAME
[02:38] <gymsmoke> ubotu: server tuning
[02:38] <ubotu> gymsmoke: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:39] <gymsmoke> silly bot
[02:39] <Hexidigital> hastesaver: putty being a program?
[02:39] <hastesaver> !putty
[02:39] <ubotu> I heard putty is a DFSG-free ssh/telnet/rsh client for Windows. It is small, simple, and has no install nonsense. Available at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[02:39] <Spitty> HoboTurtle, you here?
[02:40] <hastesaver> Steve^, In File->Preferences/ File Formats, what does it say under "MP3 Export Setup"?
[02:40] <bimberi> Steve^: ah, you've got the library, i'll stop searching the forums then :).  Unfortunately i'm not sure about the error though :/
[02:41] <gymsmoke> Hexidigital: if it's not setup yet, sudo apt-get openssh-server... then, from your windows box, go to a term and either type ssh you@machine, or just download putty.exe
[02:41] <thomasM> One thing guys: back when i was running breezy, nautilus used to preview mp3s. upgraded to dapper, it no longer does. My question is, what enabled it in breezy?
[02:41] <lampshade> arrick, I'm confused why the  http and :8888/19 stuff is there?  I think you can only enter  just the ip address and host name.  I think that's probably the problem I bet if you left that off and then just went to http://nickrud:8888 it would work.
[02:41] <Hexidigital> gymsmoke: thank you
[02:41] <Steve^> hastesaver, tis wanting to find lame, not sure where synaptic put it, though
[02:41] <arrick> thats the pastebots number, not the file
[02:42] <arrick> file starts at 127
[02:42] <gymsmoke> anyone know if i upgrage 5.10 to linux-image-2.6.12-10, will  it install the new kernel in the default slot, or will there be a grub menu asking which kernel slot to boot ?
[02:42] <gymsmoke> ^upgrade
[02:42] <hastesaver> Steve^, type "locate libmp3lame.so" in the terminal
[02:42] <thomasM> default.
[02:42] <_jason> thomasM: #ubuntu+1 is reserved for dapper questions, I can try to help you there
[02:43] <thomasM> ahh thank you.
[02:43] <Steve^> hastesaver, ah, they're called libmp3lame.so.0.0.0 and libmp3lame.so.0....
[02:44] <arrick> yeah I cant point it no matter what
[02:44] <hastesaver> gymsmoke, Each time I've updated the kernel via apt-get dist-upgrade, it has put it in the default slot. Not sure what happens if you install it manually
[02:44] <konstandinos> heys guys: my ubuntu box boots automatically into command line mode. when i need gui mode (rare) i run 'startx'. now i'm in gui mode, and when i try load a program from the system menu (ie: networking or synaptic), it prompts for password, which i type in (correctly), and then i get the error: "failed to run program-name as user root: unable to copy the user's Xauthorisation file." - ive tried deleting the .Xauthorisation file, same err
[02:44] <hastesaver> Steve^, I've got /usr/lib/libmp3lame.so (which is just a symbolic link to libmp3lame.so.0.0.0)
[02:44] <bimberi> konstandinos: have you restarted X since deleting the file?
[02:44] <Steve^> I don't
[02:44] <konstandinos> yes
[02:45] <ThreeFinity> How do I tell if my ATI drivers are properly installed?
[02:45] <konstandinos> i was in CL mode when i deleted it
[02:45] <konstandinos> then ran startx
[02:45] <lampshade> "nickrud arrick.no-ip.com" without quotes is what I would add to /etc/hosts then in a browser go to http://nickrud/ or if you need the port, then add on http://nickrud:8888 or whatever else you need
[02:45] <konstandinos> bimberi: any ideas?
[02:45] <nickrud> lovely name for a machine :)
[02:45] <hastesaver> konstandinos, are you giving it your password or root's password? Those apps usually run gksudo, AFAIK
[02:46] <konstandinos> well i am the only user, username konstandinos, and that is the password i used on the main account at install time
[02:46] <Definity> does anyone know where i can find the theme that was used in the matrix
[02:46] <konstandinos> i was never asked for a root password
[02:46] <ThreeFinity> Anybody know how to test to see if my ATI radeon drivers are working properly ?
[02:46] <nickrud> arrick, I don't think shouldn't have a resolvable domain name in /etc/hosts
[02:46] <Steve^> hastesaver, I tried just using those files, but audacity closes when I submit the options.. and then when re-opened it has reset
[02:47] <bimberi> konstandinos: was it .Xauthority that you deleted?  if not try that
[02:47] <konstandinos> yes it was
[02:47] <konstandinos> shouold i try from gui mode
[02:47] <lampshade> ThreeFinity, fglrxinfo should list some ati stuff it is installed properly
[02:47] <lampshade> just run that in a console
[02:47] <bimberi> konstandinos: try .ICEauthority as well (no, not from gui)
[02:47] <Steve^> hastesaver, wouldn't a bigger problem be that in my Audio I/O options, I have no playback device?
[02:47] <konstandinos> there are also .Xauthority-c and .Xauthority-l files
[02:47] <ThreeFinity> Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[02:47] <ThreeFinity> display: :0.0  screen: 0
[02:47] <nickrud> arrick, it's a conflict that's parsable, but one that can be suprising
[02:47] <ThreeFinity> no ATIs tuff
[02:47] <ThreeFinity> but I keep getting that error
[02:48] <ThreeFinity> when I try to do glxgears n such
[02:48] <arrick> nickrud, not following you
[02:48] <hastesaver> Steve^, oh! I didn't know that. Is it only in Audacity or can you play nothing at all on your computer?
[02:48] <Steve^> I play other music and videos fine
[02:48] <Spitty> HoboTurtle, check your Private Messages
[02:48] <nickrud> arrick, no-ip.com is a real domain name; try doing the /etc/hosts def without the domain name
[02:48] <bimberi> konstandinos: hm, i think you you could remove those - or rename them to something else (to be safe)
[02:49] <arrick> nickrud, arrick.no-ip.com is a real domain name too
[02:49] <Steve^> hastesaver, was looking at the wiki.. turns out it is retarded and can't use my sound card whilst I had rhythmbox running...
[02:49] <konstandinos> k ill try, just delted ice and restarting gui
[02:49] <nickrud> arrick, but, arrick by itself is not. it's like webserv on your first line
[02:49] <arrick> ok
[02:49] <arrick> so what should it look like?
[02:49] <konstandinos> ah ok now it works thank you bimberi
[02:50] <nickrud> 192.168.1.1 arrick
[02:50] <bimberi> konstandinos: yay, np :)
[02:50] <arrick> ok
[02:50] <arrick> what about the next one?
[02:50] <nickrud> 192.168.1.26 pastebot
[02:50] <Hexidigital> gymsmoke: i've got a silly question... from my laptop, in terminal, if i type startx -- :1 will that allow me a gui?
[02:50] <konstandinos> nickrud - were you asking about host aliases earlier?
[02:50] <gymsmoke> Hexidigital: it should
[02:50] <nickrud> konstandinos, no, arrick is currently
[02:51] <arrick> not working nickrud
[02:51] <konstandinos> i doubt this will help, but you never know, if you go to system->admni->networks, and click on hosts, you can set aliases there
[02:51] <hastesaver> Steve^, oh, sound mixing... yeah, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems etc
[02:51] <arrick> konstandinos, if I could get that installed it might help, its not on my pc
[02:52] <nickrud> arrick, then my memory is holey again. I lost nearly all my notes about a year ago ;(
[02:52] <Adam_> is there a way to start xmms through ssh
[02:52] <arrick> ok thanks nickrud
[02:52] <arrick> it joins postfix in the scrapped bin then
[02:52] <hastesaver> Steve^, if audacity still doesn't work, in the worst case, you can try --reinstalling lame, liblame0, and audacity (the Windows way ;)
[02:52] <spencer> yeah i finally got my IPW3945 working!
[02:53] <nickrud> arrick, one thing I'm sure of is that you're on the right track.
[02:53] <hastesaver> Adam_, you need ssh -X to start apps that use the display
[02:53] <arrick> yeah, just finding the correct part of it
[02:54] <wwhorner> Is there anyway of playing wma and mp4 songs on ubuntu?
[02:54] <hastesaver> !tell wwhorner about restricted
[02:54] <arrick> hey nickrud is there a channel setup for this type of question?
[02:55] <Steve^> hastesaver, does work now. Well, works like it is intended to
[02:55] <nickrud> arrick, no idea. you might check searchirc.com
[02:56] <Jim2> I skipped network setup in the install (no sense going thru the motions if there is no network attached) how can i run network setup after the fact ?
[02:56] <hastesaver> Steve^, mp3 works on Audacity? Problem solved?
[02:56] <Steve^> hastesaver, yea. thanks
[02:56] <bimberi> Steve^: what was the issue? quitting rhythmbox?
[02:56] <arrick> ok thanks
[02:56] <arrick> trying networking now
[02:57] <bbrazil> arrick: what was your question?
[02:57] <nickrud> arrick, and for postfix, well, I'd try exim4 :)
[02:57] <NeverDream> hi, all
[02:57] <Adam_> does not work/im doing somthing wrong
[02:57] <Adam_> im using putty, so i ssh -x 127.0.0.1?
[02:57] <Adam_> then xmms
[02:57] <Adam_> and i get an error
[02:58] <Hexidigital> Adam_: what os are you connecting to your server with?
[02:58] <NeverDream> I have a PCI video card installed, but ubuntu insists on running agpgart at boot time even though the agp is disabled. is there any way I can disable the agp as a boot option or something?
[02:59] <ThreeFinity> Can somebody help me find the horizontal and vertical refresh rates for the "NOKIA 447L" please? I'm checking google but it says the max res for this monitor is 1024x768 but in windows I ran it up to 1280x1024 @ 180khz
[02:59] <hastesaver> Adam_, I doubt if you can can do it from Windows; I thought you were on Linux :)
[02:59] <Adam_> winxp
[02:59] <nickrud> NeverDream, you can add agpart to /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[02:59] <bbrazil> Adam_: cygwin has an xserver
[02:59] <Hexidigital> Adam_: if you type startx -- :1 , do you get a gui through ssh?
[03:00] <hastesaver> Adam_, I'm sure it's possible somehow, but is there a reason you want xmms remotely? What use would it be, since you can't hear the music anyway?
[03:00] <bbrazil> Hexidigital: that would start a xserver on the 'server'
[03:00] <gymsmoke> i'm napping until 3am, all
[03:01] <Hexidigital> bbrazil: you wont be able to see it, though?
[03:01] <Adam_> the box is hooked up to all the speakers in my house
[03:01] <bbrazil> Hexidigital: not through putty
[03:01] <Adam_> and i have a laptop
[03:01] <bbrazil> Adam_: use mpg321
[03:01] <bbrazil> Adam_: (assuming mp3s, althoguh they're a restricted format)
[03:01] <Hexidigital> bbrazil: what about through ssh?
[03:01] <ENE|Toxic> Can anyone see if they get a response from my server: toxics.hopto.org (thanks!)
[03:02] <konstandinos> general: i'm installing a package (apache2) - when i type sudo apt-get install apache2 does it let me specify which folder to install to? (the reason is that ubuntu "os core" is on one hd, and all installed files etc are on removable hd - which i can take home and work on virtually identical machine)
[03:02] <bbrazil> Hexidigital: you need a xserver on the client, although you can start clients on other attached xservers with the right permissions
[03:02] <konstandinos> so all installed files and data need to be on removeable hd, which ive mounted
[03:02] <ENE|Toxic> konstandinos: I strongly sugest you install apache from source, ubuntu doesn't come with the latest version, and there are several differences
[03:03] <bbrazil> konstandinos: unix doesn't really work like that
[03:03] <hastesaver> Adam_, why not use a text-based thing like mplayer? it will also use up less of your bandwidth than running an entire X display...
[03:03] <HotDrive> hi there
[03:03] <konstandinos> ENE|Toxic: im too new at linux to install from source, plus i dont need apache for guru usage, just a simple webserver
[03:03] <iamcitizen> I have a BCM4318, and I would like help making it work with NdisWrapper
[03:03] <konstandinos> bbrazil: i was worred about taht
[03:03] <konstandinos> how does it work
[03:03] <ENE|Toxic> konstandinos: Alright, sorry, I don't know how to specify path then
[03:03] <HotDrive> need help to make wireless connection
[03:03] <konstandinos> ENE|Toxic: thanks anyway
[03:03] <bbrazil> konstandinos: config tends to be in /etc, user data in /home and stuff that changes in /var
[03:04] <bimberi> ubotu tell HotDrive about wifi
[03:04] <Adam_> meh xmms was installed
[03:04] <konstandinos> ok
[03:04] <konstandinos> well my /home folder is where the removable hd has been mounted to
[03:05] <konstandinos> so i guess as long as user data can be transported ill be ok
[03:05] <konstandinos> ie: install all "program files" the same way on both machines
[03:06] <konstandinos> i assume apache lets me specify the location of htdocs
[03:06] <konstandinos> to be on my mounted removable drive
[03:06] <konstandinos> thats all i really need
[03:07] <nickrud> ENE|Toxic, your page timed out
[03:07] <ENE|Toxic> nickrud: Ok thanks
[03:09] <konstandinos> wow that cant be right
[03:09] <bbrazil> konstandinos: as long as you aren't depending on suexec, that should work
[03:09] <konstandinos> i typed apt-get install apache2 and it was done in like 1 minute
[03:09] <konstandinos> ok bbrazil since i have no clue what suexec is i assume i wont be depending on it
[03:09] <konstandinos> :)
[03:09] <konstandinos> sudo execute?
[03:09] <konstandinos> beats me...
[03:10] <bbrazil> konstandinos: execute CGI as user other than the webserver
[03:10] <konstandinos> ah, i wont be using cgi
[03:10] <arrick> nickrud, here I am changing those settings on the server, had to do it on the remote, haha stupid me
[03:10] <konstandinos> but ill keep that in mind thanks
[03:10] <protocol1> how can I get the latest version of xchat on ubuntu?
[03:10] <NeverDream> is there a list of ubuntu "cheat codes" somewhere?
[03:10] <konstandinos> lol
[03:11] <nickrud> arrick, doh :) /etc/hosts needs that everywhere (it used to be the only way ;)
[03:11] <nickrud> cheat codes
[03:11] <arrick> I didnt think it would be the same name as in ubuntu for windows
[03:11] <arrick> ouch
[03:11] <konstandinos> erm, how do i "ls" like i would "dir /p"
[03:12] <protocol1> !xchat
[03:12] <ubotu> I guess xchat is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/XChatHowto http://www.xchat.org/
[03:12] <sono> hi, i'm having problems with firestarter
[03:12] <bbrazil> konstandinos: ls | more
[03:12] <konstandinos> ta
[03:12] <nickrud> konstandinos, ls | more
[03:12] <sono> i can't start
[03:12] <arrick> konstandinos, or cd into the dir then do it
[03:12] <Manderson> what's the problem?
[03:12] <sono> it refuse
[03:13] <Manderson> what does it do? Error out?
[03:13] <sono> i want to share my connection
[03:13] <konstandinos> linux rocks.
[03:13] <sono> but sends ppp0 it's not configure
[03:13] <sono> it
[03:14] <nickrud> NeverDream, ok, I'll bite. What do you mean, 'cheat codes' ?
[03:14] <arrick> nickrud, if I reboot to the live cd, is there a utility on there to burn ISO images?
[03:14] <NeverDream> nevermind
[03:14] <NeverDream> I pm'ed ubotu and got what I needed :)
[03:15] <nickrud> arrick, right click an iso and select write to disk
[03:15] <ThreeFinity> I have a problem here. There's an error in my Xconfig and the ubuntu wiki explains how to fix it. but I can't access the wiki with links because it's https:
[03:15] <nickrud> NeverDream, ah! ubotu=cheat codes!
[03:15] <konstandinos> on ubuntu's LAMP-install wiki, i have option of php4 and php5, i'm assuming 5 is better, but is there a reason i have both options?
[03:15] <NeverDream> !bootoptions
[03:15] <ubotu> bootoptions is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions not the full complement of boot options but it is some of them
[03:15] <cafe> hellow anybody knows about monodevelop were i can add a forms so i can drag and drog on it
[03:15] <ThreeFinity> Is there a version of links that has ssl enabled?
[03:16] <sono> where i can get the configure files ?
[03:16] <ThreeFinity> or another text browser that utilizes ssl?
[03:16] <arrick> ok
[03:17] <ThreeFinity> I really need tog et to the wiki lol so I can fix my X problem
[03:17] <bimberi> konstandinos: perhaps for people who have have php4 installations they want to migrate
[03:17] <jeff__> When I plug in my Jumpdrive, it does not automount. Mounts OK as user.
[03:17] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, elinks says it's linked against gnutls, that my work
[03:19] <ThreeFinity> I got it working now, I installed lynx
[03:20] <HoboTurtle> Spitty
[03:20] <moris8> alguien habla espaol..??
[03:20] <sono> si
[03:20] <HoboTurtle> no hablo en espanol
[03:20] <nickrud> !es
[03:20] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:20] <sono> pero tambien esta el canal en espaol
[03:20] <trym> why are there no CONFIG_HIGHMEM in stock kernel sources?
[03:20] <ronlybonly> has anybody here attempted to use dapper flight 6 with an ati radeon 9200 graphics card?
[03:21] <moris8> es que tengo problemas para instalar algunas aplicaciones en el ubuntu..
[03:21] <moris8> y me gustaria saber que puedo hacer..
[03:21] <robertj> ronlybonly: yes
[03:21] <sono> conecta al espaol
[03:21] <robertj> ronlybonly: with pretty unsatisfactory results
[03:21] <nickrud> trym, there is, grep HIGHMEM /boot/config-2.6.12-10-386
[03:21] <moris8> en donde hago eso..?
[03:21] <robertj> Xgl was sucking and Quake3 was as well
[03:21] <ronlybonly> robertj: i couldn't get the x server to start.
[03:21] <trym> nickrud: running amd64..
[03:21] <robertj> did you install fglrx or whatever?
[03:21] <sono> server->join channels
[03:22] <sono> ubuntu-es
[03:22] <nickrud> trym, I'll say, oh... :)
[03:22] <robertj> ronlybonly: my xorg.conf is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13604
[03:22] <trym> nickrud: and none of the kernel configs contain the phrase "HIGHEMEM"
[03:22] <trym> eh "HIGHMEM"
[03:22] <ronlybonly> robertj: thanks, i'll give it a try.
[03:23] <nickrud> trym, I don't know a thing about amd64. I'm also not sure where to look on the net for the ubuntu amd64 config ...
[03:23] <cafe> hellow anybody knows about monodevelop were i can add a forms so i can drag and drog on it
[03:23] <konstandinos> bimberi: ok but what i dont understand is why the LAMP-install wiki, under "installing mysql" says "apt-get install php4-mysql" - surely that wont work with php5?
[03:23] <trym> nickrud: but shouldnt it still be there though?
[03:23] <nickrud> cafe, you might try asking on #mono
[03:23] <robertj> cafe: that stuff is all very work-in-progress, check back in 6 months
[03:23] <moris8> gracias sono.. pero de plano creo que no le entiendo mucho aun a este sistema operativo..
[03:23] <moris8> como te llamas..?
[03:24] <konstandinos> bimberi: or is it just that mysql is currently packaged for php4, but still works with php5
[03:24] <nickrud> trym, I don't know anything about how amd64 handles memory.
[03:24] <Jim2> thank god!
[03:24] <trym> oh ok
[03:25] <Seq> has anybody successfully used mt-daapd with ogg vorbis files?
[03:25] <nez> f
[03:25] <Adam_> does any1 know where a doc is 4 mpg321
[03:26] <nickrud> Adam_, normal docs are at /usr/share/doc/mpg321 , and man mpg321
[03:27] <definity_> has anyone here used ettercap
[03:29] <sono> ve al menu server
[03:29] <sono> selecciona join-channel
[03:29] <sono> busca ubuntu-es
[03:29] <sono> yo estoy alla
[03:30] <bimberi> konstandinos: no i think it's just that those sections on the wikipage are awkwardly titled
[03:30] <hajuu> mmmm
[03:30] <hajuu> fluxbox is tidy as
[03:31] <HoboTurtle> woohoo
[03:32] <HoboTurtle> Spitty: things are back to normal now
[03:33] <HoboTurtle> Spitty: and i ran ET again... same problem
[03:33] <hajuu> how can I make xterm my default terminal instead of gterm?
[03:33] <Spitty> ok
[03:33] <arrick1> anyone, how do I access a file on my ubuntu server from another ubuntu box, so i can burn it to disc, as I have never used ubuntu to do this before
[03:33] <jako> hey
[03:33] <jako> hi
[03:33] <bimberi> *nickrud
[03:34] <bimberi> ;)
[03:34] <arrick1> bimberi, I picture nickrud with a lasso, he's a long tall texan
[03:34] <jako> how can i activate a wirelss card in ubuntu
[03:34] <arrick1> !wireless
[03:34] <ubotu> wireless is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
[03:34] <VR_> !ethernet
[03:34] <ubotu> VR_: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:34] <jako> ty ubotu
[03:34] <nickrud> been in texas less than a year. I'm typecast
[03:34] <arrick1> !network
[03:34] <ubotu> This refers to a group of interconnected computers. The computers must be capable of transferring data to form a true network--you can't just weld a bunch of computers together.
[03:35] <arrick1> VR_, what ois your question?
[03:35] <VR_> arrick1: I'm trying to get my NIC working
[03:35] <babo> Hi guys, can anyone have a look at my apache virtual host config for me ... ? All my domains point to my default domain. I don't know what's wrong. I've checked the docs and everything. If some apache wizard out there could  take a peek it'd be much appreciated ... :-)
[03:35] <arrick1> is it enabled?
[03:35] <VR_> it seems to be, dapper even tells me, on bootup, that the network configuration is "ok"
[03:35] <hajuu> dayum
[03:35] <arrick1> babo did you post it yet?
[03:35] <bimberi> nickrud: btw, i am doing so :)
[03:36] <hajuu> the only thing that annoys me about fluxbox, is that you need to have some desktop visible at all times really...
[03:36] <VR_> arrick1: I posted some info in the forums, i could pull up the url if you care to look
[03:36] <babo> arrick1: I sent you a message ...
[03:37] <nickrud> bimberi, I haven't done a thing on the wiki in a long time. I guess I need to follow your good example :)
[03:38] <ChrisC> howdy ...
[03:38] <ChrisC> my software updater seems to be stuck
[03:38] <ChrisC> it downloaded all the packages, but now has been sitting on "preconfiguring packages" for 3-4 hours
[03:41] <arrick1> babo paste it to my bot at is what i meant http://arrick.no-ip.org:8888
[03:41] <VR_> hm, so quiet in here
[03:41] <ChrisC> Does ubuntu have a graphical kill / force-quit tool?
[03:42] <arrick1> ctrl + backspace I think
[03:42] <nickrud> ChrisC, no, but you can alt-f2 , type xkill and click a window to kill
[03:42] <arrick1> thats it
[03:42] <VR_> ChrisC: try hitting alt+f4 like crazy
[03:42] <bimberi> ChrisC: it might have errored, do you have the option on the installer window to show a terminal?
[03:43] <babo> arrick1: I have no idea how to do that dude ... :-(
[03:43] <arrick1> just copy it, then click on the pastebot link
[03:43] <spikeb> for anyone who cares: there is a ppc version of realplayer
[03:44] <babo> arrick1: I click on the pastebot link - nothing happens ...
[03:44] <arrick1> babo, I think all you need is to remove the :80 cause they go default to 80 no matter what
[03:44] <nickrud> spikeb, there's helix-player in the ppc repos, I have no idea how usable it is
[03:44] <arrick1> right click and choose open in browser
[03:45] <babo> arrick1: tried that as well, it just tells me it can't establish connection .... :-(
[03:45] <babo> Won't removing the 80 cause apache to listen on all ports ?
[03:45] <arrick1> nope
[03:45] <HoboTurtle> lol babo.. good name
[03:45] <babo> arrick: ok cool, I'll try it thanks :-)
[03:45] <spikeb> helix-player doesn't play real's proprietary formats though
[03:45] <arrick1> you gotta specify ports for it to listen to them
[03:45] <babo> HoboTurtle, indeed
[03:46] <HoboTurtle> ~
[03:46] <voraistos> hey guys! i want to install the mplayer codecs to compile it later, but thing is, i downloaded the codecs, but what do i do with them ?
[03:46] <Spitty> Hoboturtle- any joy?
[03:46] <HoboTurtle> lemmi see
[03:47] <daharon> hey guys.  I'm new to ubuntu.  What is the utility that allows you to easily manipulate init files?
[03:47] <daharon> like which ones to load at bootup and what runlevel they occur at
[03:47] <HoboTurtle> huh reversing signal 11, exiting...
[03:47] <arrick1> babo, should look like this http://pastebin.com/704588
[03:47] <HoboTurtle> nvm receiving...nvm
[03:48] <voraistos> daharon: what do u mean? what do u want ?
[03:48] <HoboTurtle> Spitty: it says there's no hardware acceleration
[03:48] <daharon> something like rc-update from Gentoo
[03:48] <babo> arrick1: ok tried it ... still not working though ... :-(
[03:48] <Spitty> oh man
[03:49] <daharon> voraistos: an init script manager, like rc-update from Gentoo
[03:49] <arrick1> ok hold on
[03:49] <voraistos> daharon: what does it do? i dunno gentoo :(
[03:49] <konstandinos> hi ive just installed php4-mysql by mistake (when i should have installed php5-mysql) - do i have to reinstall mysql-server and libapach2-mode-auth-mysql, or can i just type apt-get install php5-mysql?
[03:49] <ChrisC> bimberi: yes, the terminal window is stuck on "Preconfiguring packages ..."
[03:50] <daharon> if I were to type "rc-update show", it would display all the init scripts available, which ones are set to come up at boot, and what run level they will start at
[03:50] <nickrud> daharon, sysv-rc-conf
[03:50] <daharon> nickrud: ah
[03:50] <voraistos> daharon: i think we dont have that on ubuntu: just multiple specific tools
[03:50] <nickrud> daharon, also, you want to look at update-rc.d
[03:50] <voraistos> daharon: usually it is gedit ;)
[03:50] <arrick1> babo, do you have the apache2.conf pasted anywhere?
[03:50] <bimberi> ChrisC: not much help there then :|
[03:51] <ChrisC> yeah, I just xkilled it
[03:51] <arrick1> and do you realize you have 4 sites fighting for access on the same IP?
[03:51] <babo> arrick1: just a sec ...
[03:51] <daharon> voraistos: I dont want to edit the scripts, just control which ones are going to come up at boot and in what sequence
[03:52] <arrick1> you can tell is nameserver * but you want to put a port number in order for them not to collide
[03:52] <daharon> voraistos: for instance, I want to stop lm-sensors from coming up at boot
[03:52] <konstandinos> anyone: ive just installed php4-mysql by mistake (when i should have installed php5-mysql) - do i have to reinstall mysql-server and libapach2-mode-auth-mysql, or can i just type apt-get install php5-mysql?
[03:52] <arrick1> (different Ports)
[03:52] <voraistos> daharon: yeah. but we just dont do that on ubuntu. Well, i dont.
[03:53] <daharon> voraistos: so what do you do when you are messing around with stuff?  reboot after every change?
[03:53] <ChrisC> bah, updater is stuck again
[03:53] <voraistos> no.
[03:53] <ChrisC> I'll reboot and try again
[03:53] <daharon> voraistos: nm, that didn't make sense
[03:54] <voraistos> i only rebooted for graphic card driver install.
[03:54] <nickrud> daharon, when I'm feeling frisky, I telinit to 1 & back :)
[03:54] <babo> arrick1: it's a remote server and I just have a terminal installed. So I can't really just cut and paste it. I can copy it locally though if you think it'd help. I've also posted a copy of my httpd -S output ... http://pastebin.com/704595
[03:54] <daharon> voraistos: but anyway, I need the POWER!
[03:54] <daharon> init.d is my bitch
[03:54] <daharon> gotta regulate
[03:54] <konstandinos> lol
[03:55] <voraistos> daharon: i dont know what is gentoo, buty what is sure is that you wont mess up with a debian system easily.
[03:55] <arrick1> babo, are you accessing through windows?
[03:55] <konstandinos> i think what im basically asking is, do i need to uninstall before i reinstall, or can just install over current installation?
[03:55] <babo> arrick1: ssh, terminal ...
[03:55] <daharon> voraistos: why do you say that?  I'm pretty sure I could screw it up good if I try
[03:55] <arrick1> yeah, you got ubuntu on both boxes?
[03:56] <voraistos> daharon: yeah! lol. what i mean is that u can screw it on purpose. fedora screws itself, just like windows for example.
[03:56] <arrick1> babo, let me guess, your in apahce not apahce2 right
[03:57] <konstandinos> fedora: (Noun) Felt hat with a creased crown.
[03:57] <hanasaki> in grub... what do i put in menu.lst  to force a particular kernel to be selected on next boot?
[03:57] <daharon> voraistos: so it does a good job of taking care of itself?  thats good.  I'm on a laptop and I don't want to fuss with it really.  Keep gentoo on the desktop
[03:57] <babo> arrick1: no apache2 ... here's the config file ... http://pastebin.com/704599
[03:57] <voraistos> daharon: ubuntu is easy to manage. just dont use Automatix, unless you wanna screw your system
[03:57] <daharon> voraistos: too late
[03:57] <hanasaki> in grub... what do i put in menu.lst  to force a particular kernel to be selected on next boot?  they all say savedefualt right now.. and its a remote machine.. i need it to boot the new kernel .. no keyboare
[03:57] <hanasaki> d
[03:57] <arrick1> babo, your httpd.conf isw a LITTLE BEYOND me, have you tried this in #apache channel?
[03:58] <konstandinos> ok well since no reply i am just going to apt-get install everything from the beginning again - ill be sure to paste about any funny sounds my machine starts making
[03:58] <daharon> voraistos: automatix seemed to work alright for me though
[03:58] <nickrud> hanasaki, you'd count each title (starting at 0, like 0, 1, 2... ) and change the default (near the top of the file) from 0 to the one you wnat
[03:58] <voraistos> !Automatix
[03:58] <ubotu> [automatix]  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.
[03:58] <babo> arrick1: ok thanks :-)
[03:58] <daharon> !easyubuntu
[03:58] <nickrud> !byhand
[03:58] <ubotu> nickrud: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:59] <voraistos> daharon; think about reinstalling ubuntu before to do more advanced stuff. and even easyubuntu is not such a good idea i think. just try to do everything the normal usual way.
[04:00] <mabus> Is libcurl in gcc that you get when you install build-essential?
[04:00] <nickrud> source o matic + aptitude = heaven
[04:00] <daharon> voraistos: I haven't used anything but Gentoo for about 3 years.  The usual normal way is editing all my own configuration files
[04:00] <Mortuis> When I run apt-get upgrade it tells me "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.", what does this mean 1 not upgraded?  Did I mess something up last time I ran it?
[04:01] <zcat[1] > Mortuis: apt-get dist-upgrade usually gets those..
[04:01] <hanasaki> so if default is != 0 then it is selected even if there is a save default in the menulst of grub?
[04:01] <spikeb> no
[04:01] <spikeb> Mortuis: don't worry
[04:01] <voraistos> zcat[] : i am trying to compile mplayer. thats no problem, but first i have to DL the codecs. what do i do with the damn codecs ?
[04:01] <spikeb> Mortuis: you didn't mess anything up. it just means it probably needs dist-upgrade instead of upgrade
[04:01] <Mortuis> zcat[1] : Is dist-upgrade going to take me to 6.06?  I don't want to run an unstable OS.
[04:02] <zcat[1] > voraistos: apt-get install w32codecs if you have added the appropriate repo.
[04:02] <Davey> Mortuis, if your aptget source.list has dapper as it's repository, yes, if it still says breezy, then no
[04:02] <voraistos> zcat[] : the one provided on the mplayer website?
[04:02] <Mortuis> Davey: Thanks
[04:02] <Mortuis> spikeb: thanks also
[04:02] <zcat[1] > dist-upgrade is just a smarter version of upgrade.. it won't change you to dapper or anything unless you change sources.list to do that.
[04:03] <zcat[1] > voraistos: mplayer's website will have instructions; but adding seveas' repos and using apt-get install mplayer-586 w32codecs  will do everything for you.
[04:04] <voraistos> zcat[] : ok thx
[04:04] <zcat[1] > trying to get kino to import my camera files: MVI_5352.AVI: RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 320 x 240, ~15 fps, video: Motion JPEG, audio: uncompressed PCM (mono, 11024 Hz)

[04:07] <SoCoDude> hey everyone. i'm new to the ubuntu OS and i'm having difficulty w/ multimedia files on my pc.  I have mp3 files located on my windows server, and i want to be able to play these files directly from the server on my ubuntu machine, but i can't seem to make it happen.  I also cannot play any streaming videos...anyone have any suggestions?
[04:07] <arrick> is there a graphical program in ubuntu that I can use similar to WinSCP?
[04:07] <lutra> !tell SoCoDude about restrictedformats
[04:08] <nickrud> !samba
[04:08] <ubotu> samba is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[04:08] <truz24> how come scripts in /etc/cron.hourly are not executing?
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> directly from the samba server - would proberly be best if you 'mounted' the samba shares.  But not sure of an easy tool to set that up under gnome.  They may play fine using the  normal gnome share browser however.
[04:09] <VR_> i'm trying to get my nic to work, here's some info if anyone cares to look > http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13605
[04:10] <NoUse> truz24 you need to make sure they have the proper permissions
[04:11] <cafe> hi how to select the normalize audio settings of k3b
[04:11] <cafe> hi how to select the normalize audio settings of k3b
[04:11] <VR_> poningru: wake up, help me configure my nic! http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13605 =)
[04:12] <nickrud> lol
[04:12] <Managu> VR_: I'm confused by your paste.  You run "sudo ifdown eth0", and then try to ping?
[04:12] <VR_> Managu: i wanted to trick it
[04:12] <nickrud> the interesting thing about that paste, is eth0 has no inet4 addr. No clue as to why, though
[04:13] <VR_> Managu: actually i pinged first, then did everything else. just put it all together in the wrong order.
[04:13] <bimberi> arrick: nautilus (the file manager) via Places -> Connect to Server, Service Type: SSH
[04:13] <Managu> vr_: Are you running that box on an ipv6 network like the paste suggests?
[04:13] <VR_> Managu: no
[04:14] <VR_> it's some crazy nic
[04:14] <Managu> vr_: and what is it mii-tool does?
[04:14] <Managu> vr_: (I'm just not familiar with that program)
[04:14] <VR_> Managu: it checks if the connection is ok, i saw it on the forum, and thought i'd throw it in.
[04:15] <konstandinos> if i dont "secure apache" then does that imply it is highly unsecure?
[04:15] <Managu> VR_: after the interface is down, you might try "sudo dhclient eth0", and add the output to your paste
[04:15] <konstandinos> insecure lol
[04:16] <zcat[1] > apache is almnost bulletproof until you start adding php scripts and stuff..
[04:16] <konstandinos> hey thats all i needed to hear
[04:16] <zcat[1] > for static html, don't worry about it.
[04:16] <konstandinos> yup
[04:16] <VR_> Managu: right away
[04:18] <zcat[1] > bah, I think my laptop is using about 300M of it's 128M ram.. drive activity is flat out, and the mouse pointer won't even move.

[04:19] <arrick> zcat[1] , hold down the powerbutton
[04:19] <zcat[1] > yeah.. I opened firefox to pastebin some stuff. I've also got kino running and uudeview.
[04:20] <zcat[1] > I think I might kill the power..
[04:20] <nickrud> zcat[1] , you are truly stressing your swap
[04:20] <zcat[1] > <down> -- yay for journalling filesystems
[04:20] <arrick> zcat[1] , you can also use http://arrick.no-ip.com:8888 and then passte the link here
[04:21] <zcat[1] > I just gotta remember to close one thing before I open another..
[04:21] <konstandinos> hey guys please check this for me - i can only test it on internal network: http://192.168.10.247/testphp.php - the title of the page should be "phpinfo() - ..."
[04:21] <crimsun> konstandinos: we can't reach that...
[04:22] <VR_> Managu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13607
[04:22] <konstandinos> how come?
[04:22] <slackern> konstandinos: thats a local lan ip.
[04:22] <zcat[1] > it's an RFC1918 address, we need the outside IP
[04:22] <konstandinos> so only people on this lan can see it?
[04:22] <slackern> konstandinos: yes.
[04:22] <konstandinos> ie: all the people on my lan and nobody else.
[04:23] <konstandinos> gosh thats the best news ive received all day.
[04:23] <zcat[1] > yep!! You need to forward port 80 on yout router and post us the outside IP
[04:23] <zcat[1] > unless you want it to only be local :)
[04:23] <hajuu> is it just me, or in fluxbox, can you not resize windows? :/
[04:23] <konstandinos> yup :)
[04:23] <arrick> http://165.146.182.185/testphp.php
[04:23] <konstandinos> its just a box to be used for internal databases that i dont want to be exposed to the net
[04:23] <definity1> has anybody hear knw where i can find the theme used in the matrix
[04:24] <konstandinos> i get 404
[04:24] <konstandinos> arrikc
[04:24] <nickrud> hajuu, I haven't used fluxbox recently, but I could resize windows just fine
[04:24] <hajuu> Can you remember how?
[04:24] <arrick> konstandinos, file not found on this server
[04:24] <hajuu> I move my cursor to the edges, but I dont seem to be able to do anything
[04:24] <konstandinos> i mean on your link that you pasted
[04:24] <arrick> its hidden
[04:24] <slackern> hajuu: alt+right mousebutton should let you resize
[04:24] <arrick> thats your ip
[04:24] <hajuu> oh awsome
[04:24] <hajuu> thats tidy as
[04:25] <Managu> vr_: mmkay.  What is the NIC connected to?
[04:25] <hajuu> thanks
[04:25] <arrick> konstandinos, that is the ip to your site, not found
[04:25] <konstandinos> ah ok
[04:25] <VR_> Managu: right now nothing.
[04:25] <slackern> hajuu: alt+left is for dragging.
[04:25] <Managu> VR_: router?  dsl modem?
[04:25] <konstandinos> thanks for that
[04:25] <VR_> Managu: it was connected directly to a cable modem.
[04:25] <arrick> np :^)
[04:25] <Managu> VR_: Ahh.  Well, that explains why your ping isn't doing anything
[04:25] <hajuu> damn
[04:25] <hajuu> thats even easier than using my mouse
[04:25] <VR_> i did the ping while connected.
[04:25] <hajuu> can do it anywher
[04:25] <Managu> VR_: and makes the dhcp request meaningless =/
[04:25] <hajuu> :D
[04:26] <VR_> Managu: it won't respond even when it's connected.
[04:26] <flack> Anyone: Im installing kubuntu, and its starting up the partitioner... how long should that take? Its been going for about 20 minutes. Granted its a slow machine, but my other one is equally slow and didnt take this long
[04:26] <ThreeFinity> what's the command to see if my ATI drivers are installed properly?
[04:26] <ThreeFinity> someone said it earlier and I forgot
[04:27] <NoUse> ThreeFinity its probably 'glxinfo | grep direct'
[04:27] <konstandinos> just type lspci
[04:27] <VR_> Managu: i'll try again with the cable modem connected.
[04:27] <konstandinos> and see if ati is written near the bottom somewhere
[04:27] <konstandinos> thats how i checked lol
[04:27] <ThreeFinity> no that wasn't it
[04:27] <ThreeFinity> it was  a simple one word command
[04:27] <slackern> fglrxinfo should show info
[04:27] <ThreeFinity> listed a bunch of video stuff
[04:28] <ThreeFinity> that's the one
[04:28] <ThreeFinity> Thanks :)
[04:28] <flack> Anyone: Im installing kubuntu, and its starting up the partitioner... how long should that take? Its been going for about 20 minutes. Granted its a slow machine, but my other one is equally slow and didnt take this long
[04:28] <Managu> VR_: Everything looks chipper to me.  Try connecting it all up.  Sometimes ifupdown gets a bit mangled.  Disabling and then reenabling the connection often helps.  You can do this (A) from the Network settings tool (System menu -> administration -> networking), or (b) from the command line ("sudo ifdown eth0"/"sudo ifup eth0")
[04:29] <NoUse> flack it probably shouldn't take that long
[04:29] <flack> NoUse: What should I do? Reboot?
[04:29] <ThreeFinity> Anybody know how to fix this ?
[04:29] <ThreeFinity> /usr/bin/fireglcontrolpanel: error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:29] <NoUse> flack one of the other VTs should be displaying diagnostic output, try Ctrl+Alt+F2-4 or so
[04:29] <Managu> threefinity: looks like you need a library you don't have

[04:30] <bimberi> ubotu: find libexpat.so.0
[04:30] <Managu> ThreeFinity: perhaps "sudo apt-get install libexpat1"
[04:30] <ubotu> Ubuntu Search of 'libexpat.so.0' (1 shown): (/usr/lib/libexpat.so.0) in libs/libexpat1.
[04:30] <konstandinos> hey how come when i config xserver-xorg, i dont get fglrx as an option for driverS?
[04:30] <bimberi> who needs ubotu when we've got Managu :)
[04:30] <flack> NoUse: Debug says its " Virtual Package Harddrive-detection"
[04:30] <konstandinos> and how do i make it an option
[04:30] <Managu> bimberi: errm, It's fun to harass the bot anyways
[04:31] <Managu> !botsnack
[04:31] <ubotu> thanks managu :)
[04:31] <NoUse> flack yeah try rebooting
[04:31] <konstandinos> lol
[04:31] <bimberi> !botdrink
[04:31] <ubotu> Chug... burp! :)
[04:31] <Managu> hehe
[04:31] <konstandinos> !botshag
[04:31] <ubotu> konstandinos: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:31] <ThreeFinity> ty Managu
[04:31] <konstandinos> oh well
[04:31] <zcat[1] > damn, 2:30. afk, brb
[04:32] <Managu> lol konstandinos
[04:32] <ThreeFinity> Managu, it didn't install anything

[04:32] <flack> NoUse: It shouldnt make any difference that its an unformated harddrie should it?
[04:32] <Managu> threefinity: what's the rest of the message?  Is libexpat1 already installed?
[04:32] <ThreeFinity> yes
[04:33] <konstandinos> how do i install fglrx drivers>
[04:33] <bimberi> ubotu tell konstandinos about ati
[04:33] <konstandinos> they dont appear as an option when i reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:33] <konstandinos> lol
[04:33] <konstandinos> no
[04:33] <konstandinos> not that
[04:33] <Managu> ThreeFinity: hrmm.  might be a versioning problem.  This program you're trying to run -- did it come from a package?
[04:33] <ThreeFinity> IT cae from the ATI driver package or fglrx
[04:34] <ThreeFinity> believe it's from ati package
[04:34] <ThreeFinity> it's the ATI control panel
[04:36] <VR_> Managu: i still get the same output, even when the cable modem is connected
[04:36] <flack> NoUse: I also notice that the ide-disk module takes a long time to load (like 10 minutes) any similarities do you think?
[04:37] <Managu> VR_: Dec Tulip based cards are (or at least, at one time were) very well supported under Linux.  I find it odd that there's a driver problem.
[04:37] <VR_> Managu: yes, thats what i read too
[04:38] <VR_> Managu: i even rebooted, recycled the modem, but i still get no activity on the modem lights
[04:38] <VR_> this pc works though
[04:40] <Managu> VR_: to be quite honest, everything points to a hardware problem.  Is the light on the network card glowing (assuming it has a status light)?  Are you certain the network cable you're using is good?  when you plug the nic to the cable modem, do they see each other (does the "pc" or "ethernet", etc light go on?) .  Other than that, I'm short on idea.  Try getting everything running on a local...
[04:40] <Managu> ...lan with static ip addresses?
[04:41] <sig> when did 5.10 come out?
[04:41] <konstandinos> oct 2004
[04:41] <konstandinos> oct 2005
[04:41] <konstandinos> 5 => 200(5)
[04:41] <konstandinos> .10 => month #10 (october)
[04:41] <sig> shouldn't the next release be here by now?
[04:41] <VR_> Managu: i don't have an option to tinker with a local lan, i dont have a router or anything. just 2 machines, the old one has dapper now, this one has breezy. i used the same ethernet cable as this box to connect the old box to the modem. there light on the nic on the old machine will blink at times, but that is it
[04:41] <Managu> sig: yup, should be.  It was delayed
[04:42] <sig> Managu: why was that?
[04:42] <sig> do you know?
[04:42] <konstandinos> cause mark shuttleworth said so
[04:42] <sig> good enough I guess
[04:42] <konstandinos> but he had his reasons lol
[04:42] <konstandinos> cant remember em
[04:42] <Managu> sig: yeah, that's pretty much it.  there's some links on the fridge (fridge.ubuntulinux.org)
[04:42] <konstandinos> read about it on main ubuntu page
[04:42] <sig> alright, thanks guys.
[04:43] <Papageno> How can I arrange a timer for VLC to stop playing after so much time or at a certain time? Alternatively, how can I set a timer on muting the volume?
[04:44] <Managu> VR_: *shrugs* sorry, that's all I've got.
[04:44] <VR_> Managu: no problem. thanks for your help
[04:44] <Managu> Papageno: it's a bit kludgey, but you might try (say) "at 6pm killall vlc"
[04:45] <VR_> Managu: would you happen to know where i can find some wireless PCI cards that are sure to work with linux/ubuntu ?
[04:45] <VR_> Managu: i looked at the wiki, but those seem to be mostly laptop cards
[04:45] <VR_> i didnt find any PCI
[04:45] <Papageno> Managu: Should I type exactly that into the console?
[04:45] <Managu> VR_: errm, wireless?  That's a crapshoot, in my experience.
[04:45] <VR_> oh ;\
[04:45] <wenko> is there an easy way to install flash in ubuntu\
[04:45] <Managu> Papageno: aye, well, with the time changed accordingly
[04:46] <Managu> VR_: There are a few chipsets that are well supported -- but they're not the el cheapo ones that Linksys/Netgear/etc like putting in their chips
[04:46] <bimberi> !flash
[04:46] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:46] <Managu> VR_: you might hunt down the linux wireless faq
[04:46] <Papageno> Managu: How would I be more percise? Like, can I do "at 21:56 docommand"?
[04:46] <VR_> Managu: i see. thanks.
[04:47] <Managu> VR_: http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/
[04:47] <VR_> Managu: awesome, thanks
[04:48] <Managu> Papageno: sure.  it's got a fairly broad syntax; man at
[04:48] <Managu> Papageno:  but basically it's "at <time> <command>".
[04:49] <Papageno> Managu: Well I tried both "at 21:47 killall vlc" and then "at 9:49pm killall vlc" but vlc wasn't killed at either times.
[04:49] <hajuu_> hey uhm.. im running fluxbox, and I just opened nautilus and it screwed stuff up! how do I fix it without logging out? I cant even alt tab to my gaim window
[04:49] <hajuu_> and no taskbar
[04:50] <Managu> papageno: not having used vlc, I don't know it's inner workings.  If you're running vlc, and you type "killall vlc" at the command line, does vlc die?
[04:50] <hajuu_> argh
[04:50] <Papageno> Managu, says "vlc: no process killed"
[04:50] <hajuu_> did anyone have an answer? I just minimized xchat
[04:50] <hajuu_> cant get it back up lol
[04:50] <Papageno> Managu, how would I list processes to see what's vlc's name?
[04:50] <Managu> Papageno: well, that's the first thing to track down.
[04:50] <slackern> hajuu: no not yet.
[04:51] <hajuu_> aw
[04:51] <Papageno> Managu: Nevermind. Got it.
[04:51] <jtorque> hello all
[04:51] <Managu> papageno: "ps" at a command line is one way.  you might also try "top"
[04:51] <slackern> hajuu: tried killing gnome-panel?
[04:51] <Managu> sup jtorque
[04:51] <Papageno> Managu: It was wxvlc. Thanks for all the help
[04:51] <Managu> Papageno: hope it works for you =)
[04:51] <brandon_> my gnome audio previews don't work for mp3s, but they do work for oggs
[04:51] <hajuu_> meh ill just log back in
[04:51] <hajuu_> oh except how do I log out?
[04:51] <hajuu_> from a terminal
[04:52] <Managu> brandon_: heh, caught by restrictedformats?
[04:52] <slackern> hajuu: ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:52] <jtorque> having some difficulties with my nvidia setup
[04:52] <brandon_> Managu: i doubt it, since i can play the files fine
[04:53] <Managu> brandon_: Ahh.  In that case, you're way over my head.  I'm not exactly sure what an audio preview is ;-)
[04:53] <hajuu> yay
[04:53] <brandon_> Managu: when you hover the mouse over an audio file, it should start playing
[04:53] <jtorque> I've been using the nvidia drivers for years on Debian + XFree86, but now that I've reinstalled with Ubuntu + X.org, it's just not working too well
[04:53] <hajuu> thats better
[04:55] <hajuu> so, what exactly am I supposed to use except nautilus to browse for files in fluxbox? and why does it SCREW EVERYTHING UP LIKE THAT?
[04:57] <slackern> brandon_: heh i have the same problem here, previews work for .ogg .wav and such but not for .mp3
[04:58] <slackern> brandon_: im running dapper too
[04:58] <zonble> Hi all!
[04:58] <zonble> I have a question..
[04:59] <jtorque> is there any reason I would be getting 2000FPS with glxgears without direct rendering enabled?
[04:59] <zonble> I am now running Ubuntu on a old PowerMac G3.
[04:59] <zonble> And I can use ADB keyboard and ADB one buttun mouse only..
[05:00] <eneried> hello
[05:00] <zonble> Is there any way to emulating right-click in Ubuntu with my one-buttun mouse?
[05:00] <eneried> i want to set my ubuntu as a proxy server
[05:00] <eneried> but i duno how
[05:01] <jtorque> eneried: you might want to look into squid cache
[05:01] <eneried> squid cache?
[05:02] <jtorque> eneried; you can find it in the repositories and it should do most of the work for you, but the site is http://www.squid-cache.org
[05:02] <ThreeFinity> Anybody use VMware?
[05:02] <eneried> jtorque, thanks ;)
[05:03] <Managu> ThreeFinity: now and again
[05:03] <jtorque> eneried: no problem :)
[05:03] <brandon_> slackern: apaprently, nautilus uses a program called "sox" to play the files. now, if you investigate sox, it installs a script called "play". so if you go to the command line and change directory to wherever you have  your mp3s, and then type "play filename.mp3" it will work
[05:03] <eneried> jtorque can i use agaim and amsn ans amule from the client pc trough this proxy?
[05:04] <slackern> brandon_: ahh i see, thanks.
[05:04] <brandon_> slackern: i mean, not that it matters, since the whole point is to get them to play on a mouseover
[05:04] <jtorque> eneried: from my experience, it is only a web proxy, but there is another application called privoxy which creates SOCKS4A sessions
[05:05] <jtorque> eneried: any SOCKS-compliant application should theoretically work
[05:05] <slackern> brandon_: ahh i thought you ment that was enough to do, maybe something that is configurable with gconf
[05:05] <eneried> jtorque :)
[05:05] <brandon_> slackern: i suspect that there is a way to configure it
[05:05] <brandon_> obviously, it's working with oggs dammit
[05:06] <ThreeFinity> Managu, do you have VMware player?
[05:06] <konstandinos> arrick you here?
[05:06] <ThreeFinity> Managu, just wondering if that's what I eed to run a virtual windows machine
[05:07] <delmar> When I try to share a folder, the only option is to use NFS... i musta b0rked something or perhaps im missing something...
[05:07] <sjohnson> why does the new gstreamer (suspiciously labelled "ugly" ?) want to break my install?
[05:08] <starkej> does anybody in here know alot about KDE and the Kubuntu interface?
[05:08] <eneried> delmar, install samba protocol too
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> delmar,  you proberly need to install some of the samba packages
[05:08] <sjohnson> i dont see what it is specifically going to break
[05:08] <delmar> yeah, im just takin a look in the package manager now.. we shall see
[05:08] <eneried> ubotu tell starkej about kubuntu
[05:09] <slackern> brandon_: search for thumbnailers with gconf and you might see something
[05:09] <eneried> delmar, from shared folders control panel you can install it too
[05:09] <starkej> I'm having a problem with the media:/  (storage media function) and I never seem to get any responses in #kubuntu
[05:09] <konstandinos> is the following possible: i am on a lan at work. i have an ubuntu box with apache webserver configured. its name is Moose. lets just say its static ip is set to 1.2.3.4 on the network. other computers on the network can check out its hosted pages by going http://1.2.3.4/index.html etc. i want them to be able to just type Moose/index.html, or even index.Moose
[05:10] <jtorque> sounds like making an entry in /etc/hosts would accomplish that
[05:10] <delmar> eneried, you can?
[05:11] <delmar> eneried, i dont see where u can do that... if u can its very obscure
[05:11] <hajuu> is there like one core package I can uninstall that will completely get rid of gnome?
[05:11] <jtorque> well, actually, to affect everyone, moose would need to have an entry in whatever DNS the LAN runs off of
[05:11] <slackern> konstandinos: You need to let the dns server that provides dns lookups for your computers there know that moose is at 1.2.3.4, that should fix it.
[05:11] <thomasM> #join ubuntu+1
[05:11] <konstandinos> i wonder what would happen if you asked that in #gnome
[05:11] <thomasM> o whoops my bad
[05:11] <konstandinos> slackern: ok thanks
[05:12] <slackern> or go into every machine and edit the hosts file and add 1.2.3.4 moose :)
[05:12] <konstandinos> lol
[05:13] <slackern> something to do when alone and bored at work
[05:13] <eneried> delmar when i did it on my ubuntu, i open share folders and it asked me for packages nfs and smb
[05:13] <jtorque> slackern: I did something like that for my house ;(
[05:13] <eneried> i choose both
[05:13] <hajuu> why would I ask in #gnome? its an ubuntu issue.. not a gnome issue.
[05:13] <konstandinos> jtorque: jeesh, how many pc's do you have?
[05:13] <delmar> eneried, i guess its not going to ask me because it has an option installed... nfs
[05:13] <jtorque> I'm not sure how I can edit DNS entries on my Netgear RT314, heh
[05:13] <slackern> jtorque: yeah if your not running a dns server it's usually easier to edit the hosts file
[05:13] <delmar> .anyway, it will just need some samba stuff poked into it
[05:13] <delmar> when i get to it
[05:13] <konstandinos> hajuu: i just meant the part about wanting to completely get rid of gnome
[05:14] <konstandinos> hajuu: appreaciate the humour in asking that in #gnome
[05:14] <hajuu> heh
[05:14] <hajuu> oh lol
[05:14] <hajuu> :P
[05:14] <eneried> um, delmar, then open synaptic and search for samba packages
[05:14] <delmar> eneried, yeah... i know.. when i get to it
[05:14] <jtorque> konstandinos: six or seven computers- but even that was a hassle
[05:15] <konstandinos> you remind me of this guy... one sec...
[05:15] <ThreeFinity> Is the Epiphany browser any good?
[05:16] <konstandinos> jtorque: check out the third entry from the top- http://bash.org/?top
[05:16] <eclair> epiphany's pretty swell
[05:16] <jtorque> konstandinos: heh :)
[05:17] <slackern> konstandinos: you ever read about that server that was lost at a university? there was some building crew there and they built a new wall and the poor old server was in it's own room afterwards without a door :)
[05:17] <konstandinos> lol
[05:18] <konstandinos> that would make for a cool book
[05:18] <eneried> delmar, um, i cant understand the expression "when i did to it"
[05:18] <slackern> konstandinos: http://www.techweb.com/wire/story/TWB20010409S0012
[05:18] <konstandinos> should artificial intelligence / pc consciousness come about
[05:18] <slackern> konstandinos: theres the news report of it :)
[05:18] <konstandinos> ta
[05:19] <brandon_> slackern: i'm not sure this has anything to do with it
[05:19] <delmar> eneried, perhaps you need to check your glasses :P both times I said.. "when i get to it"  .. i never said "did"
[05:20] <delmar> eneried, that asside.. cheers for your input.. i will check it out as soon as im done with this other stuff.
[05:20] <eneried> delmar, sorry, but the result is the same, i cant tunderstand that sentence
[05:21] <konstandinos> when i get to it - (adverb) when the appropriate time comes.
[05:21] <delmar> eneried, "when i get to it"  infers that it is one of the many things that I am doing and I will look at it "when i get to it" .. i fail to see how hard that is to interpret.
[05:22] <eneried> aaaa, delmar, it is hard for me, because english is not my mother tongue
[05:23] <delmar> eneried, i assumed as much... english is a bastart of a language for others to learn, as I am to understand it.
[05:23] <konstandinos> aaaaam hard and tongue should never be in the same sentence
[05:23] <delmar> eneried, bastard* :P
[05:23] <DM1010> lol
[05:23] <eneried> delmar :s
[05:23] <delmar> eneried, it doesn't help either, that we are hindered by the use of this primative device involving pressing keys with fingers
[05:24] <eneried> ok, back to the point of your shared folders problem
[05:24] <ti||> hi, could somebody help me with a CUPS problem?
[05:24] <konstandinos> delmar you'd make a terrible pre-school teacher
[05:24] <eneried> delmar, you opened synaptic, then yuou installed the samba packages... i am right?
[05:25] <konstandinos> low ping bastard
[05:25] <varsendagger> hey i installed ubuntu but i dodn't get the internet working on the install    how do i configure the network?
[05:25] <konstandinos> from ndc?
[05:25] <ti||> my cupsd is running, but gnome-cups-manager can't connect to it
[05:25] <konstandinos> menu: system->admin->networking
[05:25] <delmar> konstandinos, apart from the fact that I dislike other peoples children, no... I wouldnt make a good teacher because I would be wanting to attach a neural interface to them all and teach them how to use that .. rather than this keyboard thing... which would land me in some serious trouble im sure.. so i agree :P
[05:26] <Tedd> !register
[05:26] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration

[05:26] <ti||> /var/log/cups/error_log says:
[05:26] <delmar> eneried, dont worry about my shared folder issue just for the moment. I have other things to finish, then im sure it will be a simple matter of installing things.  :P

[05:26] <lpb> i had to reinstall win xp on a dual boot pc and lost my ubuntu boot info.  is there any way to get it back?
[05:26] <jako> wireless card
[05:26] <konstandinos> lol
[05:27] <konstandinos> like his neural interface prototype
[05:27] <konstandinos> getting into trouble with other people's children is never a good idea
[05:27] <jako> hi how can i install a driver for my wireless card
[05:27] <hajuu> lol I want to make a program that gives a visual representation of where on a cd data is located physically
[05:27] <hajuu> like of a particular file
[05:28] <centar> Hello, I am using KDE (instead of gnome) Does anyone know how i go about upgrading KDE? Thanks!
[05:28] <hajuu> apt-get upgrade ?
[05:28] <nickrud> !tell lpb about recoveringwindows
[05:28] <nickrud> lpb, doh
[05:29] <centar> hajuu,  so, explain this to me, i go into the bash terminal, and simply type apt-get upgrade and it will install the new kde?
[05:29] <Toma-> centar: upgrade to what?
[05:29] <centar> KDE 3.5 or latest version
[05:30] <hajuu> it will install the new version of anything installed with apt-get that has an updated install candidate to the one you have currently
[05:30] <Toma-> centar: ahh 1 moment
[05:30] <jako> someone told my one webpage before
[05:30] <ti||> hajuu: sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:30] <nickrud> lpb, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[05:30] <lpb> thanks
[05:30] <_darksoul> Im thinking about moving from ati to nivida, so what cards from nivida work good on linux?
[05:30] <centar> hajuu,  but i've enabled in the reposotories unstable versions.
[05:30] <Toma-> centar: http://www.kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php
[05:30] <hajuu> so disable it, apt-get update, then apt-get upgrade
[05:30] <hajuu> then re-enable
[05:30] <hajuu> :D
[05:31] <centar> hajuu,  is it good to update all components though?
[05:31] <DrBanzai> What's the best client for gnutella these days?
[05:31] <ti||> Help! My cupsd is running, but I can't print
[05:31] <hajuu> ... its always good to have the latest version of things.
[05:31] <Toma-> centar: kde 3.5 right here --> http://www.kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php
[05:31] <centar> hajuu,  he last time  i tried that, it kept telling me about to 'upgrade your boot loader before doing this' and mentioning lilo, so i just hit abort.
[05:31] <ti||> the log for gnome-cups-manager says "can't connect to backend"
[05:31] <Toma-> DrBanzai: gtk-gnutella or limewire
[05:31] <DrBanzai> Toma-, Thanks!
[05:31] <hajuu> lol why are you using lilo in ubuntu?
[05:32] <ti||> but ps -ef cupsd reveals it's running
[05:32] <centar> hajuu,  i wasn't, it told me if i had lilo. and it was a kernal upgrade
[05:32] <jtorque> _darksoul: it's really not cards from nvidia, but the chipset- and pretty much every modern card will run fine
[05:32] <hajuu> meh
[05:32] <hajuu> upgrade wont update your kernal
[05:32] <centar> hajuu,  because i've spent about 10 hours setting it up now, so i didn't want to mess it up
[05:33] <_darksoul> jtorque: not ati, seems like 3d accel wont work right, even quake4 ported to linux has low FPS and lags
[05:33] <nickrud> hajuu, upgrade most certainly will install a newer kernel, it just doesn't remove the old kernel
[05:33] <centar> hajuu,  also, artsd is being a pain in the ass, it's using 85% CPU, but if i disable it, it doesn't let me have sound
[05:33] <jtorque> _darksoul: by that, I mean cards using the nvidia chipsets
[05:33] <centar> nickrud,  do you think updating the kernal is good?
[05:33] <hajuu> heh so use a different sound server?
[05:33] <nickrud> centar, yes.
[05:33] <hajuu> not sure why it would be using so much cpu
[05:33] <centar> hajuu,  I am not aware currently of any other sound servers.
[05:34] <hajuu> ...
[05:34] <hajuu> alsa, oss... etc etc.
[05:34] <centar> hajuu,  me neither, perhaps because i am using the new beta.
[05:34] <hajuu> I like alsa
[05:34] <_darksoul> jtorque: do you use the torque engine?
[05:34] <hajuu> oh the new beta
[05:34] <centar> hajuu,  i am using alsa i believe
[05:34] <nickrud> centar, maybe not necessary, check the changelog. But I've been upgrading thru debian/ubuntu kernels for years
[05:34] <hajuu> artsd is not asla
[05:34] <hajuu> er alsa
[05:34] <jtorque> _darksoul: doesn't Quake 4 and anything else built from the Doom 3 engine have a low FPS and lag no matter what card you use? :)
[05:34] <Toma-> _darksoul: the 7000 series from nvidia are now supported, id get one of them if i have the $$$
[05:34] <centar> hajuu,  true, but in my system settings, it has alsa.
[05:34] <bodaciousb> hi, what is the utility that lets you switch desktop enviroments?  like gdm and kde
[05:34] <Nao> hey, I just installed the beta of daper drake, and I'm on a laptop with a touch pad, and I was wondering if there is anyway to turn tapping off
[05:35] <bodaciousb> im expecting to find a enlightenment option in it
[05:35] <_darksoul> jtorque: yes.. but i would expect to be able to move around alright on pure low settings!
[05:35] <hajuu> then just killall artsd and your good to go
[05:35] <Toma-> bodaciousb: gdm is a login manager and kde is a desktop environment....
[05:35] <centar> hajuu,  ok thank you.
[05:35] <dreyes> ubuntu and zimbra can anyone help me????
[05:35] <nickrud> bodaciousb, when you log in, choose the session option to change desktops. I don't know if enlightenment will show there...
[05:35] <_darksoul> jtorque: but do you use the torque game engine?
[05:35] <bodaciousb> Toma-, ok its the login manager i need to switch
[05:36] <Toma-> bodaciousb: ahh i c.
[05:36] <jtorque> _darksoul: If you want a pretty inexpensive card with mediocre performance, the FX series is good
[05:36] <varsendagger> hey i installed ubuntu but i dodn't get the internet working on the install    how do i configure the network?
[05:36] <Toma-> bodaciousb: and you want an enlightenment switcher?
[05:36] <jtorque> _darksoul: I don't- but maybe in the future
[05:36] <eneried> i've to go now
[05:36] <bodaciousb> Toma-, enlightement is isntalled, and im pretty sure the option will allready be there. i just cant remember how to get to it =)
[05:37] <eneried> take care boys :)
[05:37] <hajuu> does anyone know how to set a timeout on cdrom reads? im sick of apps goddamned reading FOREVER endlessly when they read a scratched cd
[05:37] <Toma-> bodaciousb: i c :D there is no 0.16 series enlightenment login manager. only in e17 theres entrance
[05:37] <Toma-> bodaciousb: just stick with gdm
[05:37] <DrBanzai> varsendagger, System>Administration>Networking
[05:37] <centar> Simple question; How do I disable 'animate whilst minimizing and maximizing'  ?.. I'm usig KDE. Thanks
[05:38] <bodaciousb> Toma-, thanks, ill jsut mess around until i need to reformat or find it
[05:38] <mabus> Where is the python interpreter?
[05:38] !lilo:*! HedgeMage invites freenode users who are parents, grandparents, expecting parents and interested parties to ##parenting , an interest group channel
[05:38] <Toma-> bodaciousb: np. gdm is sort of thin anyway, if thats what youre after?
[05:38] <nickrud> mabus, /usr/bin/python
[05:38] <desrt> a friend and i have both noticed that when performing large disk IO operations under dapper the performance of other applications that access the disk is absolutely awful.  it literally takes 15 seconds to :wq in a vim session, for example, while doing my backups
[05:39] <desrt> this is a regression in dapper vs. breezy, for example
[05:39] <bodaciousb> Toma-, no theres an option to select the desktop enviroment, when the installed enviroment isnt detected by gdm
[05:39] <desrt> does anyone know why this happened or how to fix it?
[05:39] <ThreeFinity> how do I install a .deb file?
[05:39] <Toma-> desrt: #ubuntu+1 thx
[05:39] <bodaciousb> Toma-, so i cant select it at the login screen, i need to do it manually
[05:39] <ti||> HELP! When I'm running gnome-cups-manager, it says "The CUPS system could not be contacted". I can't print!
[05:39] <Toma-> bodaciousb: ahh.
[05:39] <ThreeFinity> is it dpkg -i ?
[05:39] <varsendagger> DrBanzai, do you know what to do if i don't have gnome installed?
[05:39] <ti||> But cupsd is running acc. to ps -ef
[05:39] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, yes, with sudo
[05:40] <rendo> sudo: unable to lookup  via gethostbyname()
[05:40] <rendo>   I am aware of what I have done and looked it up on google but don't understand exactly what I'm supposed to change in the host file (should have made a backup cause I'm an idiot)  Anyone know what I need to do to fix this?
[05:40] <Toma-> bodaciousb: how did you install e?
[05:40] <brandon_> is there a way i can run nautilus in kind of a debugging mode, or at least catch any messages?
[05:40] <bodaciousb> Toma-, an automatic script that retrives it from apt... it was an accident, but something i had planned to do anyway
[05:41] <bodaciousb> Toma-, but im pretty sure it installed ok
[05:41] <nickrud> rendo, you need to edit /etc/hostname , and /etc/hosts; mine is 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost telemon
[05:41] <nickrud>  ; telemon is also in /etc/hostname
[05:41] <blank> how do you unzip something
[05:41] <blank> gunzip ?
[05:41] <Toma-> brandon_: ~/.xsession-errors will say something
[05:41] <blank> nevermind
[05:41] <Toma-> bodaciousb: not automatix? :/
[05:41] <bodaciousb> Toma-, there is a command to start a utility that lets you select gdm is the default login manager, and it is that i need to find
[05:41] <bodaciousb> Toma-, i jsut cnat rmemeber the command to start it
[05:42] <Toma-> bodaciousb: switchdesk i think
[05:42] <Tylerofl> ugh, loving ubuntu would be so much easier if its font rendering didn't make me want to stab out my eyes
[05:42] <bodaciousb> Toma-, not found
[05:42] <brandon_> Toma- i don't have that file
[05:42] <Toma-> same
[05:42] <nickrud> bodaciousb, sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm  ; if there's alternative display managers registered they'll show up there
[05:42] <Toma-> ahhhhhh yes. 66
[05:42] <Toma-> ^^
[05:43] <rendo> Nickrud so in hostname it should just read ubuntu (computer name)?
[05:43] <cafe> how to burn in k3b mp3 to mp3 output >>
[05:43] <Toma-> brandon_: its hidden..?
[05:43] <bodaciousb> ok iull try that
[05:43] <ThreeFinity> Don't suppose anybody could help me figure out how to setup a sandbox environment to represent an i386 distro eh?
[05:43] <cafe> how to burn in k3b mp3 to mp3 output >> not an audio output
[05:43] <ti||> blank: if it's .zip, then unzip <filename>
[05:43] <nickrud> rendo, yes. also, you'd have the first line of /etc/hosts like mine, but ubuntu instead of telemon
[05:43] <ThreeFinity> cedega won't run on amd64 platforms it seems :/
[05:43] <Toma-> ubotu: tell cafe about mp3
[05:43] <varsendagger> i didn't setup my internet when i instlled a server linux install,    i should ber able to dpkg-reconfigure some package to re connect to the internet
[05:43] <ti||>  blank: if it's .gz then gunzip <filename>
[05:43] <rendo> nickrud Hrm, it's still doing it, I'll try rebooting. :/
[05:44] <blank> yeah nevermind, thanks
[05:44] <Tylerofl> does anyone know how to add more resolutions to the resoultion change utility?
[05:44] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, most people run the i386 version after playing with the amd64. cedega is one reason
[05:44] <ti||> Tylerofl: if you have an Intel chipset, check out 855resolution
[05:44] <bodaciousb> =/
[05:44] <Tylerofl> i have amd
[05:45] <ThreeFinity> nickrud, bah then my amd64's capabilities are wasted
[05:45] <ti||> well, maybe if you google it you'll fing more this way
[05:45] <brandon_> Toma- I mean, is there a way that i can see every little thing nautilus is doing, like maybe a verbose output?
[05:45] <Toma-> what 64 bit capabilities :D
[05:45] <ThreeFinity> plus I'd have to reinstall everything :/ that's a pain
[05:45] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, I don't know of any user os that uses 64 bit capabilities
[05:45] <Toma-> brandon_: you could strace it...?
[05:45] <nickrud> completely, or usably, or somewhat like that :)
[05:46] <zcat[1] > kino failing to import mjpeg clips from my canon A75, any suggestions? details at http://pastebin.com/704624
[05:46] <brandon_> Toma- i'm not familiar with that
[05:46] <ThreeFinity> nickrud,  then what's the point of having a 64bit distro?
[05:46] <rendo> Nickrud Thanks, that's all I was missing, works fine again. *slaps computer*
[05:47] <Toma-> brandon_: 'strace nautilus' then type start
[05:47] <Toma-> zcat[1] : installed w32codecs?
[05:47] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, for people to fix and make better ;P
[05:47] <zcat[1] > yes. and ffmpeg and mencoder
[05:47] <cafe> how to burn in k3b mp3 to mp3 output >> not an audio output
[05:48] <bodhitree> cafe: make a data cd
[05:48] <bodhitree> not an audio cd
[05:48] <nickrud> cafe, you probably need lame
[05:48] <nickrud> cafe, if you're converting mp3's  that is
[05:49] <Toma-> zcat[1] : tried in #ubuntu+1 ? might be a dapper specific bug?
[05:49] <brandon_> Toma- the problem is, it doesn't continue to output after it starts the program, like practically anything else i start in a terminal would. it starts and then gives me a cursor
[05:49] <ThreeFinity> just so I'm clear on this, dapper is the livecd correct?
[05:49] <ThreeFinity> lemme guess....
[05:49] <zcat[1] > hmm.. might be
[05:49] <nickrud> !dapper
[05:49] <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 :)
[05:49] <ThreeFinity> !dapper
[05:49] <Toma-> ThreeFinity: dapper is the next version of ubuntu
[05:49] <ThreeFinity> lol
[05:49] <zcat[1] > trying google too see what I can dig up..
[05:50] <Toma-> brandon_: you dont mean gnome do you? not just nautilus?
[05:50] <ThreeFinity> meh I like my breezy and it's already setup
[05:50] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, the real problem with the 64bit distro, is the people who control the non-free media haven't released usable 64 bit versions
[05:50] <ThreeFinity> I figured #ubuntu+! was just an overflow chan
[05:51] <zcat[1] > nickrud: no doubt that will change after vista is released.. but who wants to wait until 2009 :-)
[05:51] <ThreeFinity> nickrud, that's not a problem lol we're linux users we'll make our own(we is sued as a colelctive term to encapsulate all 64bit linux users worldwide.)
[05:51] <nickrud> zcat[1] , even then, who knows?
[05:52] <brandon_> Toma- what i mean is, if i start a program fromt eh terminal, it won't give me a shell prompt again until i quit the program i started. which is what i want to do with nautilus because i need to check what happens when i do a couple of things. but in nautilus's case, it does give me a shell prompt after the program starts
[05:52] <Toma-> ThreeFinity: 'sued' is that misspelt? :D or saying we will get sued for touching patented formats?
[05:52] <zcat[1] > ThreeFinity: yeah, when the hardware manufacturers give up the specs.
[05:53] <ThreeFinity> *used
[05:53] <ThreeFinity> lol
[05:53] <wendigo> mpeg is the big one, all others are non significant
[05:53] <Toma-> brandon_: you want to start a program from nautilus, but run it froma  terminal?
[05:54] <ThreeFinity> bah
[05:54] <zcat[1] > 'sued' is an appropriate typo in the context of reverse-engineering stuff though
[05:54] <ThreeFinity> they need to hurry up n do it already
[05:54] <nickrud> and drm, I'm almost afraid to think of that being available
[05:54] <brandon_> Toma: nm
[05:54] <ThreeFinity> would bring them so much more buisiness
[05:54] <ThreeFinity> I know even when using windows I always try to buy from linux friendly companies
[05:55] <ThreeFinity> only got a radeon cause it was a gift lol
[05:55] <wendigo> theres only one thing keeping people using windows and thats game support
[05:55] <Toma-> 8nod*
[05:56] <brandon_> slackern?
[05:56] <slackern> brandon_: aye
[05:56] <wendigo> if you could run all the most popular games on linux, windows would become obsolete :)
[05:56] <zcat[1] > nah, lots of things. there's plenty of areas where there isn't a solid, professional app for the job.
[05:56] <ThreeFinity> yeah wendigo
[05:56] <brandon_> ok, here's the juice. i was able to run nautilus from the terminal and catch the output of a mouseover mp3. it says "mpg123: command not found"
[05:56] <awal> testttt
[05:56] <ThreeFinity> hell if you could run photoshop natively on linux alot of people would switch
[05:57] <tritium> there are plenty of corporations who are hanging on to windows, and I assure you it has _nothing_ to do with silly little games
[05:57] <zcat[1] > illiad, for example :)
[05:57] <wendigo> you can run photoshop using wine, or just use gimp for native
[05:57] <Nao> on Daper Drake, is there any way to either create a shortcut to a folder, or just mount a certain folder of an ntfs partition?
[05:57] <ThreeFinity> hmm
[05:57] <nickrud> brandon_, really!? sudo apt-get install mp123 then. (and I'll try that herer)
[05:57] <ThreeFinity> meh photoshop has better features
[05:57] <ThreeFinity> I don't like how gimp handles it's layers
[05:57] <wendigo> Nao: /etc/fstab
[05:58] <ThreeFinity> Anybody have VMWare player?
[05:58] <slackern> brandon_: ohh sweet installed mpg123 and it's working now :)
[05:58] <matthew_w> Here's a quick question:  Why is mplayer not showing up in apt?
[05:58] <Nao> I have VM
[05:58] <ThreeFinity> trying to figure out how to run windows on it
[05:58] <ThreeFinity> it's asking me for a vmx file
[05:58] <zcat[1] > I love gimp but there are things it just cant do that the pro's insist on having.
[05:58] <ThreeFinity> yeah
[05:58] <wendigo> matthew_w: check your /etc/apt-/sources.list
[05:58] <nickrud> matthew_w, it's in a repo you need to enable, see !source-o-matic below and check again
[05:58] <phrowzen> ThreeFinity, vmware player doesnt allow you to set up virtual machines, it allows you to use already setup virtual machines.. you have to use vmware workstation if you are starting from scratch
[05:58] <nickrud> !sourceomatic
[05:58] <ubotu> nickrud: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:59] <Nao> wendigo:  I really suck at this, I haven't used linux at all really, do I mount that folder or what do I do?  Sorry for being lame, any help is great
[05:59] <nickrud> !source-o-matic
[05:59] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[05:59] <ThreeFinity> phrowzen, ty
[05:59] <phrowzen> ThreeFinity, np
[05:59] <matthew_w> Which repo?  I have all of the defaults + PLF already enabled.
[05:59] <wendigo> Nao: ok, you have a windows partition that you would like to mount?
[05:59] <brandon_> slackern, nickrud: yes, but it should be possible to create a link called mpg123 to the play program i mentioned earlier
[05:59] <matthew_w> Universe, multiverse, backports, it's all there.
[05:59] <Nao> yeah,  d6
[05:59] <Nao> do*
[05:59] <nickrud> matthew_w, then check http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto
[06:00] <wendigo> Nao: open a terminal and paste this: sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda
[06:00] <nickrud> brandon_, which one?
[06:00] <PVZ> where do i delete my "recent documents" without using the panel?
[06:00] <matthew_w> Ah, forgot multiverse
[06:00] <wendigo> Nao: then tell me which partition number windows is on
[06:00] <Nao> wen: it brought up a lot of stuff
[06:01] <PVZ> after i open any openoffice application,the panel crashes all the time
[06:01] <Nao> my windows is sda1
[06:01] <Nao> so I put that in
[06:01] <nickrud> PVZ, dapper?
[06:01] <matthew_w> Err... No I didn't, this is weird.
[06:01] <brandon_> nickrud: there's a command-line application called play, that "sox" installs, that allows for playing all kinds of media files, including mp3s
[06:01] <PVZ> breezy
[06:01] <wendigo> Nao: ok, paste this: sudo nano -w /etc/fstab
[06:01] <hajuu> NO
[06:01] <brandon_> nickrud: so you can simply type "play file.mp3" from your audio directory and you'll see it works
[06:01] <Nao> wen: done
[06:01] <hajuu> ja ja
[06:02] <nickrud> brandon_ I know of it, but haven't tried it.
[06:02] <brandon_> nickrud: it just seems like a waste of space to have both mpg123 and sox installed
[06:02] <Nao> wen: it brought up a sort of grid/list thing
[06:03] <ThreeFinity> phrowzen, should the default vmware workstation work on 64bit ubuntu ?
[06:03] <wendigo> Nao: now add a line at the bottom and paste this: /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs defaults,ro,user,users 0 0
[06:03] <nickrud> brandon_, 256K doesn't sound like a space waster. I'm not particularly concerned about that.
[06:03] <Nao> wendigo: ok, done
[06:03] <Elazar> Why is it that MPlayer doesn't scale the video when I change the window size?
[06:03] <phrowzen> ThreeFinity, sorry, i have no idea, i use it on 32bit
[06:03] <brandon_> nickrud: i suppose i'm just being anal
[06:03] <ThreeFinity> bah
[06:03] <ingnorance> hi i just got a live dvd, how can i install it so it boots with gnome as default?
[06:04] <ThreeFinity> looks like I might have to downgrade
[06:04] <__dante__> http://monstersgame.it/?ac=vid&vid=16019407
[06:04] <ThreeFinity> or elarn how to setup a sandbox
[06:04] <ThreeFinity> !sandbox
[06:04] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ThreeFinity
[06:04] <ThreeFinity> blah
[06:04] <wendigo> Nao: press ctrl + x, then type 'y' to agree to save the file
[06:04] <Nao> ok
[06:04] <Nao> what file do I write to, it asked
[06:04] <zcat[1] > which is more likely to be good for making kino behave, seveas' or cypherfunk repo?
[06:04] <Nao> file name*
[06:04] <PVZ> so,is there a way to delete the "recent documents" list of a user without using the panel?
[06:04] <wendigo> Nao: use the default name it gives, which should be /etc/fstab
[06:05] <ingnorance> hi i just got a live dvd, how can i install it so it boots with gnome as default?
[06:05] <Nao> ok, it sent me back to the terminal
[06:05] <nickrud> PVZ, I don't see that problem here. Do you have oooqstart-gnome installed?
[06:05] <PVZ> oooqstart-gnome
[06:05] <PVZ> i dont think so
[06:05] <ezekillmt> anyone here using dapper?
[06:05] <intelikey> PVZ maybe rm ~.recent*     ?
[06:05] <wendigo> Nao: ok now to confirm the settings, paste: cat /etc/fstab | grep ntfs
[06:05] <Nao> ok
[06:05] <PVZ> should i do rm ~.recent* as the user?
[06:06] <intelikey> yes
[06:06] <ezekillmt> yo holla if you using dapper.
[06:06] <eggzeck> you don't need to delete it
[06:06] <eggzeck> and I don't advise doing so
[06:06] <PVZ> so,what should i do?
[06:06] <zcat[1] > ezekillmt: try #dapper+1  (I'm running it but this is not the place to get help for it)
[06:06] <zcat[1] > err #ubuntu+1 rather
[06:07] <intelikey> eggzeck i was only answering the Q howto.
[06:07] <eggzeck> PVZ: just clear it with: sed 's/.*//' <.recently-used
[06:07] <Nao> wen: is there anything left for me to do?
[06:08] <ezekillmt> Using Dapper Anybody?
[06:08] <Elazar> Why is it that MPlayer doesn't scale the video when I change the window size?
[06:08] <Nao> I'm using dapper
[06:08] <matthew_w> ezekillmt; join #ubuntu+1 as far as I know.
[06:08] <brandon_> Elazar, because you;re using the wrong video driver
[06:08] <ezekillmt> got ya
[06:08] <intelikey> eggzeck lol....  how is that any better than rm'ing it ?
[06:08] <eggzeck> intelikey, it's CLEARING not deleting ;)
[06:08] <brandon_> Elazar, change it to xv
[06:08] <PVZ> so eggzeck...
[06:08] <PVZ> i login as the user and do that comand right?
[06:08] <intelikey> eggzeck i repete how is it any better ?
[06:08] <PVZ> thank you very much
[06:08] <ezekillmt> cheers...
[06:09] <PVZ> and thank you very much too intelikey.
[06:09] <eggzeck> intelikey, you can't be serious?
[06:09] <meneg> hi, if one installs the latest test, will it be possible to upgrade to the later stable?
[06:09] <nickrud> Elazar, you need to tell mplayer to use the xv video out; try mplayer -vo xv <file>
[06:09] <intelikey> eggzeck writes to .recent are made via  >>    so yes i'm extreemly sirious
[06:09] <hajuu> is there anyway to have a key combination open a new xterm window?
[06:09] <eggzeck> intelikey, ">>" is append ;)
[06:10] <nickrud> hajuu, in gnome?
[06:10] <hajuu> in fluxbox
[06:10] <intelikey> eggzeck if you can't see what i'm saying lets just drop it.
[06:11] <konstandinos> !rubyonrails
[06:11] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, konstandinos
[06:11] <konstandinos> !ruby
[06:11] <ubotu> ruby is, like, an object oriented programming/scripting language born in Japan. You can download it at the command line by sudo apt-get install ruby1.8.
[06:11] <konstandinos> !rails
[06:11] <ubotu> konstandinos: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:11] <ingnorance> how can i fix it so ubuntu boots with gnome as default?
[06:11] <matthew_w> Is this a common problem; I seem to have two sound devices causing... well, problems.
[06:11] <bodhitree> apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:11] <matthew_w> lol
[06:11] <ti||> help, I can't print! -- When I start the printing manager, it says "could not connect to CUPS server", although the cups daemon is running
[06:11] <Elazar> brandon_: Now I get this when I try to right-click on the window: "No bind found for key MOUSE_BTN2"
[06:11] <nickrud> konstandinos, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RubyOnRails
[06:12] <konstandinos> ta
[06:12] <ti||> Anybody?
[06:12] <brandon_> Elazar: i don't know about that one
[06:12] <protocol1> ingorance, logout of your session and then choose your session type
[06:12] <wendigo> Nao: should display the line you just added
[06:12] <wendigo> Nao: now paste this: sudo mkdir /mnt/windows
[06:12] <ingnorance> bodhitree: E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[06:12] <ingnorance> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[06:12] <wendigo> Nao: when you reboot , ubuntu should now automatically mount your windows partition
[06:12] <Elazar> nickrud: Any suggestions? "No bind found for key MOUSE_BTN2" when I right-click now.
[06:12] <eggzeck> ingnorance, 'sudo'
[06:12] <wendigo> Nao: just reboot, should do
[06:13] <nickrud> Elazar, gnome?
[06:13] <bodhitree> ingnorance, er, sudo apt-get install ubuntu desktop
[06:13] <protocol1> then choose gnome
[06:13] <Elazar> nickrud: Yes.
[06:13] <ingnorance> thanks
[06:13] <ti||> in my .xsession-erros, I find the line "IPP request failed with status 1280"
[06:13] <ti||> what does that mean?
[06:13] <firebird619> I want to download and install the latest Xfce. Is it better to download the tarballs or  a .bin file?
[06:13] <zcat[1] > better to apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[06:13] <nickrud> Elazar, no, I don't. (was hoping you'd say fluxbox or the like)
[06:14] <lutra> firebird619: are you on dapper?
[06:14] <eggzeck> firebird619, depends on your net connection. But why not apt-get it?
[06:14] <Nao> wen: is there any way that I can have it show the files in an folder on the desktop without actually copying them over?
[06:14] <firebird619> lutra: no, Breezy
[06:14] <intelikey> firebird619 it's better to use the package in the repos.
[06:14] <lutra> firebird619: if you're on dapper xubuntu-desktop will get you latest version of xfce
[06:14] <Elazar> nickrud: I tried playing a MOV file in VLC, but for some reason the audio doesn't come through. Audio comes through in MPlayer, but then I can't resize the video. :\
[06:14] <ThreeFinity> so there's like no difference in compile times or anything with ubuntu i386 and ubuntu amd64?
[06:14] <lutra> firebird619: thought about upgrading?
[06:14] <Elazar> nickrud: And Totem won't open the file because it doesn't recognize the format. Not sure how to solve that problem.
[06:14] <eggzeck> firebird619, 'apt-cache search xfce'
[06:14] <firebird619> eggzeck, I want the 4.4 version which is beta at the moment.
[06:15] <bodhitree> Elazar, probably a codec issue.
[06:15] <eggzeck> firebird619, you should see xfce4
[06:15] <ingnorance> Reading package lists... Done
[06:15] <ingnorance> Building dependency tree... Done
[06:15] <ingnorance> E: Couldn't find package ubuntu
[06:15] <eggzeck> firebird619, oh I see.
[06:15] <Elazar> bodhitree: In the case of Totem, obviously. Suggestions?
[06:15] <bodhitree> ingnorance, ubuntu-desktop, not ubuntu.
[06:15] <ti||> Can somebody help me with my CUPS problem, please?
[06:15] <muraii> On starting to install ff 1.5, I notice that it's i686.  Is that going to be problematic if I'm using the i386 kernel?
[06:15] <firebird619> lutra: the only way I can upgrade is to order the CDs from LaunchPad. I only have dialup Internet
[06:15] <zcat[1] > ingnorance: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop :)
[06:15] <konstandinos> nickrud: i think that tutorial is outdated - very first instruction fails
[06:15] <bodhitree> Elazar, get the binary-essentials codec package from www.mplayerhq.hu ?
[06:15] <ti||> Google wasn't very helpfule
[06:15] <lutra> firebird619: ah...
[06:15] <konstandinos> nickrud: and it differs slightly to what ubotu has to say
[06:15] <lutra> firebird619: i think there will be xubuntu cds for dapper you can order
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: You think me not being able to resize the video in MPlayer is a codec issue??
[06:16] <ingnorance> ubuntu-desktop is already the newest version.
[06:16] <ingnorance> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[06:16] <lutra> which will come with xfce4.4
[06:16] <bodhitree> Elazar, oh, I thought you had no audio.
[06:16] <lutra> firebird619: try #xubuntu
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: Only in VLC.
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: I get audio in MPlayer.
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: I just can't resize the video in MPlayer.
[06:16] <bodhitree> Elazar, ahh, my bad.  No clue why you can't resize, that's odd.
[06:16] <firebird619> lutra: ok, I will try #xubuntu. Thanks
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: I mean, I have the option to resize, but it only resizes the window containing the video, not the video itself.
[06:17] <orbin> muraii: no.  i use a k7 kernel w/ it and it works fine.
[06:17] <Elazar> bodhitree: People have suggested I try changing the video mode, but then I get this error message: "No bind found for key MOUSE_BTN2"
[06:17] <wendigo> elazar: you need to use -vo xv
[06:17] <Elazar> wendigo: I tried that. Then I get this error message. ^^^
[06:17] <bodhitree> Elazar, change your output plugin
[06:17] <wendigo> elazar: what error?
[06:17] <lutra> firebird619: np
[06:17] <bodhitree> try -vo opengl if you have 3D drivers installed.
[06:17] <zcat[1] > ingnorance: what was the original problem?
[06:17] <nickrud> Elazar, you get that error with -vo xv in mplayer??
[06:18] <Elazar> wendigo: "No bind found for key MOUSE_BTN2" when I try to right-click on the window to change the zoom.
[06:18] <Elazar> nickrud: "No bind found for key MOUSE_BTN2?" When I right-click to try to change the zoom, yes.
[06:18] <brandon_> Elazar: that's telling you that your damned mouse button doesn't work, it's not a driver issue
[06:18] <wendigo> elazar: thats not a video error. look at the other error messages
[06:19] <nickrud> Elazar, try simply resizing the window with the mouse (drag the border)
[06:19] <wendigo> elazar: glxinfo | grep direct
[06:19] <ingnorance> zcat: i installed from a live dvd but now booting without the dvd leads to the prompt screen i want it to load gnome automatically
[06:19] <Elazar> nickrud: Same effect... bigger window, video doesn't scale with it.
[06:19] <GreySim> Question.  Does anyone know how to kill off the process of updating packages after the initial Breezy install?  Like, after the install and the first reboot, when it installs all the packages copied to harddisk?  The copy failed for me and I'd just like to apt-get everything since I'm upgrading to Dapper anyway, but the post-install install has a lock on apt.
[06:19] <Elazar> wendigo: direct rendering: Yes
[06:20] <zcat[1] > ingnorance: 'prompt screen' meaning what? text login? gui login?
[06:20] <wendigo> elazar: you should beable to use xv then
[06:20] <ingnorance> zcat:
[06:20] <ingnorance> zcat: text
[06:20] <Elazar> Ah, OK...
[06:21] <Elazar> For some reason, my config file settings aren't taking effect.
[06:21] <wendigo> elazar: ~/.mplayer/config
[06:21] <dedex> gdf
[06:21] <dedex> iou
[06:21] <wendigo> elazar: vo=xv
[06:21] <zcat[1] > ingnorance: try 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm'   -- crude, but it might fix the problem.
[06:21] <dedex> opk
[06:22] <ingnorance> zcat: ok
[06:22] <nickrud> Elazar, wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto has a decent config
[06:22] <bodhitree> vo=quartz ;)
[06:22] <Elazar> wendigo: Tried that. It doesn't seem to be reading the config file though.
[06:22] <bodhitree> hehe
[06:22] <Elazar> nickrud: Tried that, too. Same result. :\
[06:22] <Elazar> For some reason, though, it works if I call it from command line with the vo option set.
[06:22] <intelikey> GreySim you could rm the lock file   but that wont fix the broken packages.  you'll have to fix that before you can proceed with the upgrade.   if this is a fresh install.  i'd sujest redo it as server-install (cli only) and then upgrade to dapper, after that is finished you can apt-get your X crap... i.e. ubuntu-desktop
[06:22] <wendigo> elazar: just use on command line then. mplayer -vo xv <video file>
[06:23] <pin> hello
[06:23] <nickrud> hi pin
[06:23] <pin> i need som help
[06:23] <zcat[1] > Elazar: so set it in .mplayer/config
[06:23] <Elazar> Seems odd that I should have to do it that way, though. Not sure why it doesn't appear to be reading the config file.
[06:23] <matthew_w> Is there a place to check if my PC supports CPU scaling?
[06:23] <Elazar> zcat[1] : (11:22:25 PM) Elazar: wendigo: Tried that. It doesn't seem to be reading the config file though.
[06:24] <pin> what should i do to turn ubuntu in to xubuntu.. (no gnome etc.)
[06:24] <nickrud> Elazar, make sure you didn't typo the config name
[06:24] <brandon_> Elazar: the config file for the gui mplayer is in a different place
[06:24] <FroKiller> Hey I have a bunch of my music on a windows hard drive, I mounted them and then added the music into Rhythmbox but can't get them to play, all of the files are in m4a acc format
[06:24] <zcat[1] > Elazar: echo "vo=xv" >> ~/.mplayer/config
[06:24] <brandon_> are you using the gui mplayer?
[06:24] <wendigo> elazar: cat ~/.mplayer/config | grep xv
[06:24] <nickrud> pin, sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop
[06:24] <intelikey> GreySim i think that would be the easiest way for you
[06:24] <pin> nickrud, who will i get rid of ubuntu(gnome)
[06:24] <zcat[1] > gmplayer should read the same config..
[06:25] <Elazar> wendigo: (11:22:25 PM) Elazar: wendigo: Tried that. It doesn't seem to be reading the config file though.
[06:25] <zcat[1] > !mp4
[06:25] <ubotu> zcat[1] : NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:25] <nickrud> pin, gnome will be there, you just don't use it. It's more trouble than it's worth trying to delete it
[06:25] <Elazar> D'oh.
[06:25] <zcat[1] > hmm..
[06:25] <Elazar> wendigo: vo=xv
[06:25] <intelikey> GreySim if you are not confortable in a console, why not wait a month for dapper to be released.
[06:25] <zcat[1] > there's some gstreamer stuff you add for aac and mp4.. want me to dig it up?
[06:25] <pin> i want to delete it
[06:25] <wendigo> elazar: then it' s in your config
[06:25] <vook> I seek guidance on getting s-video out to work on my laptop.  I've googled with no success.  I have a HP zv 5260 laptop, nvidia chipset, xorg.conf can be found here:  http://pastebin.com/704722
[06:26] <pin> Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "xubuntu-desktop.
[06:26] <decal> anyone have problems with ubuntu boot cds ? i cant get it to boot at all
[06:26] <wendigo> elazar: try running a video on the command line and see if it's scalable. mplayer <video>
[06:26] <FroKiller> is there something i need to do to add acc compatibility?
[06:26] <brandon_> zcat[1] : no, gmplayer uses gui.conf
[06:26] <onthost> decal: does your bios support booting from a CD? and does it attempt to boot from it?
[06:26] <pin> ^^
[06:26] <Elazar> wendigo: Odd... it is.
[06:26] <nickrud> pin, you'll need to enable some extra repos then. See !repos below
[06:27] <nickrud> !repos
[06:27] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[06:27] <Elazar> OK, that's weird.
[06:27] <jyoung> decal- did you burn the boot disk yourself? if so, did you burn it as an ISO?
[06:27] <intelikey> decal the major problem seems to be in people not burning the iso to disk as a disk image.
[06:27] <decal> yes, it says searching for boot record from cd, and then it says not found, the slackware boot cds work fine, ubuntu cds are the only ones that have given me problems
[06:27] <Elazar> It's mysteriously started working.
[06:27] <wendigo> elazar:  then brandon_ is correct and gmplayer uses different config file
[06:27] <pin> i got repos..
[06:27] <pin> whatever
[06:27] <zcat[1] > sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-faac
[06:27] <decal> yeah i burned it as an iso
[06:27] <nickrud> pin, it's in universe.
[06:27] <brandon_> wendigo: it uses gui.conf in the same folder
[06:27] <jyoung> decal- and your bios is set to boot from CD?
[06:27] <wendigo> brandon_: ok
[06:27] <zcat[1] > oops
[06:27] <decal> yeah, it boots slackware just fine
[06:28] <jyoung> strange.
[06:28] <zcat[1] > sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-faad  (faac is the encoder, faad is the decoder)
[06:28] <decal> i dont know what it is, slackware is pissing me off and i want to format and install ubuntu
[06:28] <FroKiller> zcat you talkin to me?
[06:28] <jyoung> it makes me think the CD didnt burn correctly.
[06:28] <jyoung> mine always work perfectly on my Mac and my Dell
[06:28] <zcat[1] > whoever wanted aac to play..
[06:28] <FroKiller> yeah
[06:28] <FroKiller> i already have gstreamer installed
[06:28] <decal> i even used the program they told me to burn with on the ubuntu website
[06:28] <GreySim> intelikey, thanks.  I am comfortable with CLI, but I was away from the computer and didn't see your reply.  Thanks.  :)
[06:28] <bluelotus> can someone go here and tell me if the page changes onBlur of the top dropdown box? http://cybarc.is-a-geek.net/work/selby/ap_website/amyportnoy/index.html?what=publisher&which=4&id=9
[06:29] <decal> im guessing its my computer, because ive booted those images before on other comps
[06:29] <jyoung> could just be a bad cd. have you tried to make another one?
[06:29] <FroKiller> is it because there are no write permissions on my windows drive could that be the problem
[06:29] <decal> well on a virtual machine anyway
[06:29] <nickrud> decal, when you look at the contents of the cd, is it one file or many?
[06:29] <intelikey> GreySim welcome
[06:29] <jyoung> ah... so the cd works in other computers?
[06:29] <vars> hey is there anyway i can use just a crossover cable to connect two comps that are running breezy?
[06:29] <Elazar> wendigo, nickrud, brandon_: Thanks for the help guys.
[06:29] <decal> i tried the dvd combo one and the regular iso one and neither worked
[06:29] <brandon_> Elazar: no problem
[06:29] <decal> nick: many
[06:29] <nickrud> Elazar, we held your hand, and it started working :)
[06:29] <zcat[1] > vars: yes..
[06:29] <jyoung> what kind of computer?
[06:29] <bluelotus> sugar
[06:29] <bluelotus> sorry wrong channel
[06:30] <intelikey> decal if the disk can boot on another box but not yours......    by the same test if it can't boot anywhere......  :)
[06:30] <nickrud> decal, then if it works on one machine, but not this one (missed that before I hit enter)
[06:30] <vars> zcat[1] , can you please tell me?
[06:30] <pin> nickrud can i pm u?
[06:31] <decal> dammit, why would it not boot specifically the ubuntu cds, it boots other bootable cds just fine
[06:31] <nickrud> pin, sure
[06:31] <zcat[1] > give them an rfc1918 address (192.168.1.n) where n is different on each machine, netmask 255.255.255.0, no gateway.
[06:31] <MetaMorfoziS> decal: you burn that cd like image?
[06:31] <MetaMorfoziS> if you wrtie it like data cd, it can't boot
[06:31] <decal> yes
[06:31] <decal> oh
[06:31] <decal> oh shit
[06:31] <nickrud> !register
[06:31] <decal> wait
[06:31] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:32] <MetaMorfoziS> :)
[06:32] <ignorance> zcat: didn't work
[06:32] <decal> no i did burn it as an image, i think
[06:32] <decal> im pretty sure
[06:32] <MetaMorfoziS> insert it to your cdrom
[06:32] <vars> zcat[1] , how so i do that specifically
[06:32] <MetaMorfoziS> ok...
[06:32] <MetaMorfoziS> else i dunno
[06:32] <hajuu> !freedom !!
[06:32] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, hajuu
[06:32] <zcat[1] > ignorance: ok, if you log in text and type 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" does it start?
[06:32] <vars> zcat[1] , and what is the interface to use in order to share files?
[06:32] <ignorance> zcat: dunno
[06:33] <zcat[1] > vars: my head asplode, trying to follow too many conversations :)
[06:33] <drgnmyst> has anyone had any luck getting a Broadcom 4318 wireless card working?
[06:33] <drgnmyst> with Dapper?
[06:33] <zcat[1] > ignorance: so try it?
[06:33] <MetaMorfoziS> gif
[06:33] <MetaMorfoziS> google is your friend:)
[06:33] <ignorance> zcat: doing so now
[06:33] <intelikey> decal like i said.  test 1   does the cd boot on other boxes ?    test 2  do other cd's boot on your box.    test 3  if yes to both the above, then we look to see why that disk won't boot on your box.
[06:33] <MetaMorfoziS> giyf...:D
[06:34] <vars> zcat[1] ,  i am trying to use a crossover cable to share files between to ubuntu comps that are server installs
[06:34] <decal> the answer is yes to both tests
[06:34] <decal> heh
[06:34] <jyoung> decal: when you insert the cd and look at the files on it, do you see a bunch of files or just the one iso file?
[06:34] <decal> a bunch
[06:35] <zcat[1] > vars: ahh.. ok. you have to edit /etc/network/interfaces first on both machines
[06:35] <jyoung> ok... i have no idea why it won't boot to it. must be a bios incompatibility or something. I have NEVER had a problem with the boot CD. this is strange
[06:35] <decal> yeah
[06:35] <intelikey> decal see these two dirs on the cd  .disk   and  isolinux   ?
[06:36] <zcat[1] > vars: it would be much easier if they're both on the net through a hub already..
[06:36] <zcat[1] > .. because you're probably going to need to isntall ssh or samba soon.
[06:37] <decal> heh, i dont even know how to browse my cd drive in slackware or if its even mounted or what
[06:37] <vars> zcat[1] , my isp gtave me a router with only one cat5 outlet
[06:37] <FirstLite> I'm getting tons of "package not verified" errors doing security updates (on a Hoary system).  Apparently the .debs aren't signed.  Anyone know if this is normal?
[06:37] <decal> but when i had windows a few hours ago, it had all the normal directories like an image file normally burns
[06:37] <zcat[1] > vars: get a sheap hub, you'll save yourself a lot of grief.
[06:37] <MetaMorfoziS> bye all
[06:38] <intelikey> so how did you answer the question <jyoung> decal: when you insert the cd and look at the files on it, do you see a bunch of files or just the one iso file?   <> <decal> a bunch   ?
[06:38] <zcat[1] > plug the isp's router and both computers in, everything should just work thanks to the magic of dhcp.
[06:38] <decal> because ive looked at the cd before while i was on windows
[06:38] <decal> and it had a bunch
[06:38] <decal> not just the iso file
[06:38] <jyoung> if he sees a bunch of files, then the iso burned correctly.
[06:38] <bimberi> ubotu tell FirstLite about gpgerr
[06:38] <gza> hi
[06:38] <jyoung> i was thinking he might have just data copied the iso to the cd
[06:38] <intelikey> so mount it and ls -a the mount point
[06:39] <FirstLite> bimberi: thanks, will try
[06:39] <intelikey> jyoung windows cant view the conenets of an iso ?
[06:39] <ben32167> what is the opposite of aptitude install?
[06:39] <lynx> hi!!
[06:39] <ben32167> uninstal?
[06:39] <gza> what filesystem should I use for ubuntu? ext2? reiserfs?
[06:39] <zcat[1] > ben32167: apt-get remove --purge ?
[06:40] <vars> zcat[1] , i only have one cat5 outlet on the hub and only one outlet on each of the cmputers.
[06:40] <ben32167> what does --purge mean?
[06:40] <jyoung> if he just copied the iso to the cd, then on the root of the cd all he would see is the iso
[06:40] <lynx> can some one hellp me with Nvidia GForce 6500.... I can't make it work... no direct remderring
[06:40] <zcat[1] > vars: you need a 4-port hub.
[06:40] <ben32167> i will remove gnome
[06:40] <ContinuumXLS> hey all
[06:40] <vars> zcat is there any other way?
[06:41] <decal> how do i mount the cd drive to read whats on it in slackware
[06:41] <GreySim> Isn't it possible to use zeroconf and a crossover cable?
[06:41] <decal> the cd is /dev/hda btw, which im guessing is unorthadox
[06:41] <intelikey> mount /dev/<device> /mount/point
[06:41] <bimberi> ben32167: 'aptitude remove' or 'aptitude purge'
[06:41] <zcat[1] > vars: yes, but it's gonna take a while to explain, is complicated, and you'll be constantly switching between config for internet and other computer.
[06:41] <vars> ok here is another option, i have a windows comp  that i can use as a go between, but my head is starting to hurt
[06:41] <ben32167> whts the differenfe between purge and remove?
[06:41] <intelikey> decal unorthodox is my standard..
[06:42] <decal> heh
[06:42] <zcat[1] > GreySim: good point. You think that would work?
[06:42] <vars> zcat  i have roughly 1 gig of info to get from my computer to my laptop   ( both run linux
[06:42] <GreySim> I'm not sure.  I haven't played much with zeroconf and Avahi beyond getting DAAP working.
[06:42] <zcat[1] > GreySim: i think a cheap hub would still be easier.. that's what I used to use with my dist-cheap one port DSL modem.
[06:42] <vars> GreySim, hmmm
[06:42] <GreySim> I think it's worth investigating if a hub isn't an option for some reason though.
[06:43] <vars> zcat[1] , yeah but it isn't i have to get this suff over to the laptop tonight
[06:43] <zcat[1] > GreySim: anyhow, I'm gonna go beat up kino again. I'll let you handle this one :)
[06:43] <decal> ok, ive got the cd rom mounted, and it shows the .disk directory and the isolinux directory
[06:43] <vars> zcat[1] , thanks for you're help
[06:44] <zcat[1] > start by installing ssh on each machine.. probably the easiest option :)
[06:44] <bimberi> ben32167: purge is remove plus take out configuration files as well
[06:44] <MachineScrew> is there a way to burn a .bin file without K3b
[06:44] <decal> so no ideas on why this isnt booting?
[06:44] <intelikey> decal ok check both of them.  .disk should have "base_components  base_installable  info  udeb_include"
[06:45] <decal> yea, it has those
[06:45] <intelikey> decal and isolinux "boot.cat  f2.txt  f5.txt  f8.txt        isolinux.cfg    f1.txt    f3.txt  f6.txt  f9.txt        isolinux.txt   f10.txt   f4.txt  f7.txt  isolinux.bin  splash.rle"
[06:46] <mithro> how do I stop my computer from suspending when the power is disconnected from my laptop?
[06:46] <vars> so go and install shh and then figure out how to make the computers talk to eachother and then what?
[06:46] <zcat[1] > vars: ok, I'll stick around and help :)
[06:46] <jyoung> why did intelikey get kicked off?
[06:46] <decal> flood
[06:46] <GreySim> zcat[1] : You're probably much more qualified than I am on this.  :)
[06:46] <zcat[1] > on the one that's currently connected to the net type    sudo apt-get install ssh    in a terminal
[06:47] <decal> damn, and i cant msg him
[06:47] <decal> this sucks
[06:47] <GreySim> Why not an FTP server though?
[06:47] <jyoung> what is a flood?
[06:47] <zcat[1] > GreySim: ssh/scp is easier than ftp imho..
[06:47] <brandon_> does superkaramba not work with gnome?
[06:47] <GreySim> zcat[1] : I'll take your word on it.  I probably think of FTP first only out of habit.  :)
[06:47] <vars> zcat[1] , i am installing ssh right now
[06:48] <bimberi> i don't think it's a flood.  Ubugtu is configured to react to certain strings in a post
[06:48] <zcat[1] > GreySim: he'd have to set up an ftpd.. scp uses ordinary user shells
[06:48] <decal> ooh
[06:48] <joewag> Does anyone know how I can get a USB mouse to get redetected after having unplugged it?
[06:48] <ben32167> why purging gnome keyring also uninstals xubuntu-desktop?
[06:49] <sparkleytone> xubuntu-desktop is just a dummy package
[06:49] <bimberi> heh, none
[06:49] <zcat[1] > xubuntu-desktop probably depends on gnome-keyring?
[06:49] <sparkleytone> if you don't have everything in the list...its not installed
[06:49] <cafe> how to play wma in linux
[06:49] <ben32167> i have xubuntu desktop idont have ubuntu-desktop and gnome

[06:49] <ubotu> methinks restrictedformats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[06:49] <HedgeMage> bimberi: what's wrong?
[06:49] <sneex> \=
[06:50] <vars> GreySim, zcat[1]   i tried to use gspace but i am limeted to 14 mb

[06:50] <bimberi> ... and banned
[06:50] <sparkleytone> !tell cafe about restricted formats
[06:50] <cafuego> !bcm4318 is a card you need to use ndiswrapper with.
[06:50] <ubotu> okay, cafuego
[06:50] <zcat[1] > vars: another option if you have it is a USB mp3 player or camera :)
[06:50] <PORDO> if i compiled my own jackd, should i compile my own hydrogen, as the package version is looking for /usr/bin/jackd and not /usr/local/bin/jackd?
[06:51] <Hobbsee> bimberi: how odd.  Seveas seems to be having problems with it
[06:51] <zcat[1] > PORDO: this is why I always suggest sticking to packages :)
[06:51] <sparkleytone> ahhh intelikey...i remember him from last night...did he turn out to be a troll?
[06:51] <HedgeMage> Hobbsee: I'll leave it to you then... I'm off to poke at my mom's web site some more.
[06:51] <Hobbsee> HedgeMage: sure
[06:51] <sparkleytone> i really like that bot
[06:51] <bimberi> Hobbsee: thanks.  Hi btw :)
[06:51] <vars> zcat[1] , that is a good idea, i just don't have a card big enough
[06:52] <Hobbsee> sparkleytone: me too.  it got some upgrades yesterday though
[06:52] <clif> Any one know how to make an external mouse plugged into a ps2 mouse port over ride the internal touch pad on ubuntu 5.10 running on a compaq presario 1200 laptop, it won't use the external mouse I'm new to ubuntu so you'll have to guide me in laymans terms LOL
[06:52] <Hobbsee> hi bimberi :P
[06:52] <vars> zcat[1] , ok shh is installed on both machines
[06:52] <GreySim> vars: How much data do you need to move again?
[06:52] <vars> about a gig
[06:52] <zcat[1] > vars: ok, take them off the net and plug them into each other
[06:52] <PORDO> zcat[1]  in this case, the package version of jackd wouldn't work with ardour, which i had compiled.
[06:52] <ben32167> can i use a command like  aptget distupgrade xubuntu?
[06:52] <PORDO> zcat[1]  i definitely had a reason to compile jackd.
[06:53] <zcat[1] > PORDO: sounds like you have a reason to compile hydrogen now...
[06:53] <trym> I cant get svn working... svn: Unrecognized URL scheme for 'http://svn.inviso.local/invisoextra'
[06:54] <vars> zcat[1] , ok they are both plugged in
[06:54] <zcat[1] > PORDO: you could probably make a simlink for jackd and tell apt to ignore the missing dependency.
[06:54] <vars> hi intelikey did you have a nice trip?
[06:54] <zcat[1] > vars: ok, on one 'sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1'
[06:54] <bimberi> wb intelikey
[06:54] <intelikey> OK !   what did i trip the bot with ?
[06:54] <zcat[1] > vars: and on the other 'sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2'
[06:54] <PORDO> zcat[1]  how can you tell apt to ignore a dependency?
[06:55] <yaaar> word
[06:55] <zcat[1] > PORDO: umm.. --force is one option :) there are probably nicer ways. I had to do something like that to make Xgl and Xorg coexist
[06:55] <vars> ok
[06:56] <intelikey> anybody know what it was that got me booted from the channel ?
[06:56] <yaaar> can anybody tell me the relative performance of geforce 7300LE vs. 7300GS? I'm about to build a system and the price diff is $10, dunno if I should go for the GS?
[06:56] <Hobbsee> intelikey: i've got no idea what it was supposed to be...
[06:56] <zcat[1] > vars: from the one you set as 192.168.1.1 try 'ping 192.168.1.2' and see what happens?
[06:56] <vars> intelikey, it was your behaviour
[06:56] <intelikey> vars  ya think ?
[06:56] <bimberi> intelikey: Ubugtu reacted to the post beginning with:   decal and isolinux "boot.cat...
[06:56] <intelikey> bimberi yes but why ?

[07:02] <intelikey> Hobbsee note that bimberi is banned for it to.
[07:02] <farous> GoDawgs: just check it out google it

[07:15] <cci[RR] us> jadaz87: I used GFTP
[07:15] <tritium> jadaz87: gftp, if you're looking for gui
[07:16] <GoDawgs> tritium: I'll be back on in a couple of days.... we'll catch up!
[07:16] <intelikey> cci[RR] us you find the package name like i first showed you.   dpkg -l       and filter it to suit your needs.
[07:16] <tritium> GoDawgs: okay :)
[07:16] <GoDawgs> farous: Thank you again for your help.  I really appreciate it. :)
[07:16] <GreySim> Wirwing, Cowbell or Easytag are probably what you are looking for then.
[07:16] <jadaz87> cci[RR] us:  tritium gftp how do i set that up? i tried it and it is not working
[07:16] <GoDawgs> Goodnight everyone.  *very, very sad*  Have to reinstall windows.......................................................................
[07:16] <wowoku> who can see the film online ``````
[07:17] <GreySim> ...oh my.
[07:17] <wowoku> ubugtu can you tell me  who can see the film online ``````
[07:17] <vars> wow godawgs just got banned
[07:17] <intelikey> wowoku it's not likely that bot can answer a question like that.
[07:17] <vars> zcat[1] , hey that is working great
[07:17] <crimsun> um.
[07:18] <Hobbsee> crimsun: er....
[07:18] <zcat[1] > you get banned for reinstalling windows around here? that's harsh..
[07:18] <tritium> what's up with Ubugtu tonight?
[07:18] <jadaz87> lol
[07:18] <Hobbsee> tritium: Seveas made some changes yesterday
[07:18] <vars> windows
[07:18] <intelikey> the dots in that one
[07:18] <bimberi> de-op Ubugtu for now???
[07:18] <crimsun> that's a bit draconian
[07:18] <bimberi> kk
[07:18] <vars> yeah
[07:18] <Hobbsee> hmm...that didnt deop it...
[07:19] <sparkleytone> Ubugtu: is a bit...high strung
[07:19] <Hobbsee> heh
[07:19] <cci[RR] us> If dpkg -l   does not show the package, does that mean I couldn't remove it?
[07:19] <tritium> ban Ubugtu!  ;)
[07:19] <jadaz87> can anyone tell me how to setup gftp for sftp?
[07:19] <Hobbsee> tritium: haha!
[07:19] <jadaz87> i tried it just hangs when trying to connect
[07:19] <yaaar> do Radeon X550 cards work ok in linux?
[07:19] <cci[RR] us> basically i read my entire dpkg -l  by piping to less
[07:19] <intelikey> Hobbsee careful if you try to deop the bot it might kick you.
[07:19] <intelikey> 8*{
[07:20] <tritium> jadaz87: did you change the protocol?  There's a button, perhaps in the top right corner, if I recall correctly...
[07:20] <Hobbsee> intelikey: it hasnt yet.
[07:20] <Hobbsee> intelikey: and if it does, i'll kickban it :P
[07:20] <jadaz87> tritium yes i see i was a dummy :-) thanks all
[07:20] <vars> man the shh is awsome
[07:20] <babo> My ntpd is listening all over the place ... can anyone have a look at it for me ... http://pastebin.com/704762 ... I've read all the docs I can find but they don't say anything ...
[07:20] <tritium> jadaz87: nah, the UI is confusing
[07:20] <babo> ... useful ...
[07:21] <vmadmin> hey
[07:21] <vmadmin> what is the purpose vnc server
[07:22] <tritium> vmadmin: remote desktop access, etc.
[07:22] <valehru> hey guys
[07:23] <valehru> need to install a good dvd burning software package
[07:23] <valehru> any suggestions?
[07:23] <vmadmin> tritium: thanks if i have vmware server and ssh whats the benefit of haveing vnc server
[07:23] <dreyes> anyone install zimbra on ubuntu?
[07:24] <intelikey> is there not a way to update apt without gpg ?
[07:24] <tritium> vmadmin: it's your preference, I'd say
[07:24] <sparkleytone> mine updates fine
[07:24] <amac> anyone have vim 7 working on ubuntu with omnicomplete?
[07:24] <sparkleytone> it just gives a warning
[07:24] <amac> i cant seem to get onmicomplete working
[07:25] <intelikey> W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release: Could not execute /usr/bin/gpgv to verify signature (is gnupg installed?)  <---- and no it's not installed.   what will it do if i symlink gpg and true ?
[07:25] <vmadmin> tritium: so vnc server behaves like ssh
[07:25] <tritium> vmadmin: no, you'd have to tunnel it
[07:25] <sparkleytone> intelikey: try it
[07:25] <sparkleytone> can't really hurt anything
[07:26] <blahblah2000> what irc clients do you guys use?
[07:26] <MachineScrew> what command will show me my current bandwidth usage in real time
[07:26] <blahblah2000> for linux that is
[07:26] <tritium> irssi, blahblah2000
[07:26] <intelikey> sparkleytone did. this is what happens "W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release: Internal error: Good signature, but could not determine key fingerprint?!"
[07:26] <zcat[1] > blahblah2000: epic4
[07:26] <Wirwing> Greysim: can u repeat me the name of the app than u told me? :S
[07:26] <sparkleytone> blahblah2000: irssi proxy
[07:26] <MachineScrew> any one
[07:26] <GreySim> Cowbell is one, Easytag is another.
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> what program should I use to burn an iso of ubuntu?
[07:27] <Wirwing> thnks :)
[07:27] <sparkleytone> cdrecord
[07:27] <salmiak_> ThreeFinity, what Operative system? ;)
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> does it have a gui ?
[07:27] <tritium> MachineScrew: there's no cli command that I'm aware of.
[07:27] <sparkleytone> no
[07:27] <vmadmin> tritium: so ssh is an encrypted connection on say port22 whereas vnc server is just lie a remote desktop
[07:27] <zcat[1] > ntop ?
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> ok is there a good burner that has a GUI for ubuntu?
[07:27] <bimberi_> ThreeFinity: in ubuntu itself? right-click on iso file, select Write to CD (or something like that)
[07:27] <MachineScrew> ThreeFinity: try right clicking on the ISO in nautilus
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> oh
[07:27] <salmiak_> gnomebaker is great ThreeFinity
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> that'll burn it an the expanded iso image right? not just as a file on a cd
[07:27] <intelikey> MachineScrew there is a gui .....  can't recall it name.
[07:28] <tritium> MachineScrew: as rapidly as it fluctuates anyway, it wouldn't be worhth much, unless you took an average over a sufficiently sized window
[07:28] <ThreeFinity> an/as
[07:28] <intelikey> MachineScrew gkrelm
[07:28] <MachineScrew> right
[07:28] <ThreeFinity> k
[07:28] <salmiak_> or, you can do as MachineScrew and bimberi suggested. Nautilus got integrated (and working) iso-burning
[07:28] <bimberi_> ThreeFinity: yes, as an expanded iso image
[07:28] <MachineScrew> intelikey: to much work
[07:28] <tritium> vmadmin: so to speak, yes.  That's why I'd recommend tunnelint vnc over ssh if you use it.
[07:28] <ThreeFinity> ty bimberi
[07:28] <tritium> tunneling even
[07:28] <MachineScrew> lol
[07:28] <bimberi_> ThreeFinity: np :)
[07:28] <intelikey> MachineScrew well netstat via script....
[07:29] <majd|away> how do you extract rar files?
[07:29] <hey560> !dapper
[07:29] <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 :)
[07:29] <intelikey> !rar
[07:29] <ubotu> it has been said that rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[07:29] <majd|away> thanks
[07:29] <MachineScrew> intelikey: well the reason I ask is I was pulling in 2 isos from the same server one toped out at 500/KBs the other toped out at 500/KBs
[07:30] <vmadmin> tritium: is tunnelint a program that you add to vnc server or is a series of commands
[07:30] <MachineScrew> so there i have it
[07:30] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: is that a joke?
[07:30] <tritium> vmadmin: it's a method of redirecting ports over ssh, setup with commands
[07:30] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: no
[07:30] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: why
[07:30] <salmiak_> I wonder if it's possible to start burning the iso while downloading it ;)
[07:31] <salmiak_> with nautilus iso-burning
[07:31] <intelikey> MachineScrew sure one could always load a loop send/recieve and see what happens.
[07:31] <Hobbsee> salmiak_: i'm not aware of it being possible...
[07:31] <ThreeFinity> heh
[07:31] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: yes i had 2 downloads both going 500/KBs because I have a 9Mbit connection
[07:31] <ThreeFinity> would be nice
[07:31] <ThreeFinity> but um
[07:31] <ThreeFinity> depends how fast you can download it
[07:31] <salmiak_> ofcourse
[07:31] <vmadmin> tritium: is there a wiki or howto some where ?
[07:31] <muraii> So, I know this is off-topic; but it's an Ubuntu system and about default security.  I thought Ubuntu came with all ports shutdown.  Is this always really the case?
[07:31] <MachineScrew> intelikey: well my thing was i guess servers limit how fast people can connect right
[07:32] <intelikey> MachineScrew just one m between our networks.
[07:32] <intelikey> yours is *mbit  and mine is *bit   :)
[07:32] <pitti> muraii: yes, the default install will always have no open ports
[07:32] <tritium> vmadmin: several, google search "vnc ssh tunnel"
[07:32] <blahblah2000> question: i'm trying to install dapper drake from the livecd, but the installer can't create partitions: "failed to create fily system"
[07:32] <bimberi> muraii: the default install is not listening on any external ports
[07:32] <MachineScrew> so it saw 2 different files both downloaded using the same computer
[07:32] <blahblah2000> know why that could happen?
[07:32] <MachineScrew> wow
[07:32] <vars> hey is zcat[1]  STILL HERE   thanks a ton dude
[07:32] <muraii> pitti: Is nmap accurate, or is it known to show ports open that aren't actually open?
[07:32] <intelikey> MachineScrew yes the fastest machine on the block is only as fase as it's slowest connection..
[07:32] <Wirwing> hi, i have a little question.... when i install a program using sudo aptitute/ap-get install ***********" command line, the program appears in the synaptic installed program list?
[07:33] <pitti> muraii: no, it should be accurate
[07:33] <MachineScrew> right
[07:33] <bimberi> Wirwing: yes
[07:33] <pitti> muraii: it'll show you if a port is blocked
[07:33] <muraii> pitti: That's what I thought.  I have NetBIOS open, and a couple more.
[07:33] <MachineScrew> ok and not many servers out there go to 1MB/s ;)
[07:33] <pitti> muraii: then you installed samba
[07:33] <vars> Wirwing, apt  and synaptic use the same apt
[07:34] <vars> ahhh i  am tired don't listen to me
[07:34] <MachineScrew> though unsustained I have reached 1Megabyte/s
[07:34] <muraii> pitti: Thought it might be that.  Will that run 445, too, for MS-DS?
[07:34] <pitti> muraii: yes
[07:34] <MachineScrew> I am VERY close to the hub of the Cox network
[07:34] <intelikey> Wirwing aptitude apt and synaptic  are all frontends to the  debian package manager = dpkg
[07:34] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: i get 1MB/sec regularly from the ubuntu repos
[07:35] <konstandinos> !rails
[07:35] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, konstandinos
[07:35] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: I get around 500KB to 900KB from the us. servers and faster from just archive.ubuntu
[07:35] <muraii> Maybe I should check what ports samba opens.  I should be able to close those when I'm not looking for MS shares.
[07:36] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: if you're machine is on a big fat pipe, you'll notice that there are a lot of servers out there that can do well over 1MB/sec
[07:36] <pitti> muraii: btw, you know about 'sudo -i tcp:<port>' ?
[07:36] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: but I am finding that using wget in the console is faster than letting firefox download it
[07:36] <pitti> muraii: or 'sudo netstat -avptu' ?
[07:36] <Fusion> hello everyone
[07:36] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: oh definitely.  i don't use a GUI at all so i guess that's another reason its not so uncommon
[07:36] <Wirwing> hi, can i edit tags from a mp3 archive localized in a Xp Ntfs Partition?
[07:36] <intelikey> MachineScrew it is that even on dialup
[07:37] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: well my limit is 9Mb/s AND I am on a wifi connection
[07:37] <sparkleytone> ah gotcha
[07:37] <Fusion> as you can probably imagine...i'm here because i'm having some ubuntu problems =\
[07:37] <muraii> pitti: Dinna know 'bout the former, and never used the latter.
[07:37] <MachineScrew> intelikey: not shure haven't been on dialup in a wile
[07:37] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: yeah my ubuntu install is colocated, so i get good stuff
[07:37] <intelikey> MachineScrew statement not question.
[07:38] <sparkleytone> mac mini colo is so cheap...its great.
[07:38] <MachineScrew> intelikey: sorry
[07:38] <pitti> Wirwing: easytag is a nice package for tags
[07:38] <MachineScrew> cool
[07:38] <pitti> Wirwing: not the easiest one, but very flexible and great features
[07:39] <MachineScrew> Wirwing: no not on an NTFS partition
[07:39] <sparkleytone> this is an impressively helpful channel
[07:39] <Fusion> here's my problem:  I downloaded the newest version...and in installation, it gets the part about copying packages to the hard disk, and i get an error about it not being able to copy them, and says the problem may be i burnt the cd wrong, and i did it 3 times using iso recorder...anyone have any ideas?
[07:39] <MachineScrew> you can make changes but it can't be writen to
[07:39] <sparkleytone> i remember my days of having lots of linux questions...i couldn't even get help if i didn't word the question exactly right
[07:39] <pitti> Fusion: if the CD medium is broken, burning it again won't help
[07:39] <sparkleytone> "my ethernet card won't grab an IP"
[07:39] <pitti> Fusion: the initial menu has an option to check CD integrity; you can use it
[07:39] <MachineScrew> Fusion: try a different CD brand ?
[07:40] <Wirwing> MachineScrew: so if i want to rename a mp3 archive localized in a Ntfs partition....i have to copy&paste in my Ubuntu partition first?
[07:40] <crimsun> morning, pitti :)
[07:40] <sparkleytone> "Your ethernet card does not grab IPs.  Ask the right question"
[07:40] <pitti> Fusion: and if it succeeds, it's an installer bug (but I guess it'll fail; we tested the flight-7 images very carefully)
[07:40] <pitti> hi crimsun
[07:40] <metajon> Fusion: what's the burn speed (I've encountered problems with CDs burned at > 8x on older drives)
[07:40] <MachineScrew> Wirwing some funny suff you would need to do
[07:40] <Fusion> well, i got fed up with that, so i used an old printed version of 5.04 i had and it just kept freezing on me. =\
[07:41] <vmadmin> tritium thanks tons of stuff out there
[07:41] <MachineScrew> Wirwing: you still have windows xp on the system
[07:41] <Fusion> well, i used iso recorder, and just right clicked on the iso and clicked copy to disc, and it really didn't ask for a cd speed
[07:41] <sparkleytone> Fusion: use a different optical drive?
[07:41] <MachineScrew> or is it on the network
[07:41] <intelikey> Fusion also you can continue without copying the remaining files to hard disk.....    try the server-install option at the boot prompt
[07:41] <MachineScrew> if on the network no problem using samba
[07:41] <sparkleytone> Fusion: were you here last night?
[07:41] <Fusion> nope.  i'm a n00b =D
[07:41] <ferronica> is there any theme for ubuntu
[07:41] <ferronica> good theme
[07:42] <MachineScrew> but on another HD on the same computer not good
[07:42] <sparkleytone> oh a GOOD theme?
[07:42] <sparkleytone> nope.
[07:42] <ferronica> lol
[07:42] <sparkleytone> ...
[07:42] <intelikey> Fusion then disreguard the "server-install" line above.
[07:42] <ferronica> theme for ubuntu
[07:42] <MachineScrew> ferronica: check it gnome-look.org art.gnome.org
[07:42] <Fusion> ill give those options you all gave me a try...i've got an old pc laying around that i'm going to turn into a dvr.  thanks for all the help
[07:43] <Wirwing> MachineScrew: Yep, im still using it, but i hate my RhythmBox Library, cause the Artist show me "The Academy is.....", "the academy is", "The Academy is" and stuff like that :S
[07:43] <Fusion> thanks again, if i can't get anything to work you'll be hearing from me again =)
[07:44] <MachineScrew> also try sudo apt-get install gnome-art
[07:44] <ferronica> how ti install using apt-get???
[07:44] <intelikey> i'm sure we'll be hearing from fusion again.   there is always a questio.
[07:44] <MachineScrew> Wirwing: well change it in windows then that change will be there next time you start linux
[07:45] <Wirwing> MachineScrew: And i cant rename cause when i run EasyTAG..... it only show me "/" and not the Xp one...
[07:45] <`paul> evrytime i login my 2 win partion is in readonly ive tried adding user option in fstab but still the same
[07:45] <Wirwing> MachineScrew: I think i will do that.... :-/
[07:45] <MachineScrew> ferronica: go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[07:45] <`paul> pls help
[07:46] <firebird619> What package name is gtk+-2.0 under. I tried gtk+-2.0 with no success. I then tried gtk which gave me alot of packages. Is the package name libgtk2.0-0?
[07:46] <ferronica> then??
[07:46] <SNAKESONAPLANE> firebird619: aptitude
[07:46] <MachineScrew> ferronica: then we need to check to see if you have some settings correct
[07:47] <MachineScrew> ferronica: go to Settings -> Repositories
[07:47] <ferronica> ok
[07:47] <ferronica> all r checked i think
[07:47] <SNAKESONAPLANE> firebird619: then do / and search for gtk
[07:47] <intelikey> `paul  readolny is the ,ro, / ,rw,  part.    or  ?mask=    man mount.   or read the link.
[07:47] <intelikey> !ntfs
[07:47] <ubotu> somebody said ntfs was the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:47] <MachineScrew> ferronica: so one says Universe
[07:47] <SNAKESONAPLANE> then do \ to search again and again
[07:48] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: yes
[07:48] <MachineScrew> cool
[07:48] <MachineScrew> then cancel
[07:48] <MachineScrew> and do a search for gnome-art
[07:48] <MachineScrew> should pop up
[07:48] <`paul> intel: well its "rw" and ive read that if its mounted but readonly then it must be using the nouser option
[07:49] <firebird619> SNAKESONAPLANE: I used Synaptic to search for it. I just want to know what the package name is. I am trying to install xfce but it says it needs gtk+-2 (2.6.0), but I am sure I already have it. I just can't remember the package name for it so I can be sure.
[07:49] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: where on website
[07:49] <intelikey> `paul i doubt that it is mounted ro....  mount   will verify.
[07:50] <`paul> can i paste the line produce by mount here?
[07:50] <muraii_> It appears that I'm regularly hit by some combination of RingZero, ReverseWWWTunnel, and/or Brown Orifice.
[07:50] <`paul> only one line
[07:50] <MachineScrew> ferronica: well the program gnome-art can download and install themes for gnome metacity and nautilus
[07:50] <fidxbox|away> clear
[07:50] <fidxbox|away> exit
[07:50] <pppoe_dude> hi
[07:50] <intelikey> `paul  only the one line pertaining to the partition in question
[07:50] <MachineScrew> Gnome are the contens of the window or controls
[07:50] <pppoe_dude> any ideas why flash video doesn't work in konqueror? (google video) it works fine on mozilla
[07:50] <MachineScrew> Metacity are the window borders
[07:50] <`paul> intelikey:  /dev/hda1 on /mnt/HD1 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[07:50] <pppoe_dude> i get audio but no video
[07:51] <MachineScrew> and nautilus is the filesystem an application icons
[07:51] <intelikey> there you have it `paul it is not ro  it is rw
[07:51] <pppoe_dude> only a grey screen where the video is supposed to be
[07:51] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: what i do to download it
[07:51] <`paul> intelikey:  ro is readonly right?
[07:51] <intelikey> correct `paul
[07:51] <MachineScrew> ferronica: well synaptic will take care of that
[07:51] <`paul> intelikey:  i want it to be rightable
[07:51] <ferronica> what i type in terminal??
[07:51] <intelikey> yes. `paul it is.
[07:51] <`paul> intelikey:  the problem is evrytime i login as a regular user its readonly
[07:52] <MachineScrew> ferronica: you still have synaptic open
[07:52] <`paul> intelikey:  i mean i cant even create folders... T_T
[07:52] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: no
[07:52] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: cancelled it
[07:52] <MachineScrew> ferronica: open it back up the thing you want is in there
[07:52] <ferronica> cancelled*
[07:52] <MachineScrew> no no the whole window
[07:53] <intelikey> no your user has not write access.  the disk is not ro.    like i first said you need a  umask=  string in the fstab for that partition
[07:53] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: ok opened now??
[07:53] <`paul> umask=000?
[07:53] <hajuu> damn. its cool that I dont have to mount audio cds
[07:53] <intelikey> `paul add that in /etc/fstab
[07:53] <MachineScrew> ferronica: ok now click on the search icon
[07:53] <MachineScrew> in synaptic
[07:53] <ferronica> ok
[07:54] <sparkleytone> its not cool that it fakes a bunch of files that aren't on the cd
[07:54] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: then what i type there
[07:54] <`paul> ok wait
[07:54] <MachineScrew> ferronica: now search for gnome-art
[07:54] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: in package showing three
[07:55] <MachineScrew> then click on the box next to it
[07:55] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: no one is installed
[07:55] <MachineScrew> should say mark for install
[07:55] <`paul> intel: after saving ill do a mount -a right?
[07:55] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: all 3
[07:55] <intelikey> `paul here in the irc client type this without quotes. "/exec -o grep -e'/mnt/HD1' /etc/fstab "
[07:56] <MachineScrew> no just that one it will tell you that it need others say mark
[07:56] <`paul> intel: it worked thanks!!!!!! :D
[07:56] <`paul> fot ntfs it should be umask=0222 ryt?
[07:56] <MachineScrew> now what is checked
[07:56] <firebird619> Is the package name for gtk+-2.0 "libgtk2.0-0"?
[07:57] <intelikey> `paul for ntfs you may want to use fmask and dmask
[07:57] <Tomcat_> firebird619: Yes.
[07:57] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: i checked one,
[07:57] <intelikey> `paul again i sujest    man mount
[07:57] <intelikey> man is good.
[07:57] <intelikey> man man
[07:57] <MachineScrew> ferronica: ok and did it ask about installing other things
[07:57] <`paul> sorry
[07:57] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: yes yes
[07:58] <MachineScrew> and you click ok or mark
[07:58] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: what to do now???
[07:58] <firebird619> Tomcat: I am trying to install Xfce but it says I need gtk+-2.0 (2.6.0). According to Synaptic I have 2.86. What can I do to fix it?
[07:58] <MachineScrew> ferronica: ok now we click on apply
[07:58] <intelikey> man woman  >  E: no documentation found.
[07:58] <`paul> thanks for the help
[07:58] <`paul> lol
[07:58] <intelikey> :)
[07:59] <MachineScrew> ferronica: let it download and install the packages
[07:59] <`paul> well i doubt if those umask thing is in man mount T_T
[07:59] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: i think its downloding
[07:59] <intelikey> `paul it surely is.
[07:59] <Horaz> hey @everybody
[07:59] <`paul> :p o my bad
[07:59] <BlueEagle> `paul: I think they are.
[07:59] <MachineScrew> when the Applying Changes box gose away you can close synaptic
[08:00] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: now how could i know it installed my choice
[08:00] <intelikey> `paul there is even a   man fstab    with examples.
[08:00] <MachineScrew> ferronica: because the box next to it should be green instead of white
[08:00] <intelikey> why do we even write manpages and infopages..... ?
[08:01] <Horaz> that they trash the systems
[08:01] <Horaz> I think so ...
[08:01] <`paul> well its in there all right heh
[08:01] <ferronica> ok done
[08:01] <intelikey> i just said that.
[08:01] <MachineScrew> ferronica: now go to System -> Prefrences -> Art Manager
[08:01] <protocol1> intelikey, man pages are very handy for me.....so is online documentation
[08:02] <protocol1> i do take it for granted at that
[08:02] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: nothing is there lol, empty
[08:02] <`paul> but it says umask=value where value etc etc etc in octal
[08:02] <`paul> T_T
[08:02] <MachineScrew> ferronica: i know
[08:02] <intelikey> protocol1 yeah.  i know the answer.  it was a question filled with retoric
[08:02] <MachineScrew> now click on art
[08:02] <protocol1> ok
[08:02] <firebird619> What would cause the problem of, when installing Xfce, it saying I need GTK+-2.0 (2.6.0) when I already have GTK+-2.0 (2.8.6)?
[08:02] <MachineScrew> sellect one
[08:03] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: i selected theme
[08:03] <MachineScrew> For me i did Art > Backgrounds > Gnome
[08:03] <ferronica> i think its d/l something
[08:03] <intelikey> `paul yes and you should either learn the octal code for linux file attributes or ask.
[08:03] <MachineScrew> ya it will
[08:03] <MachineScrew> takes a bit
[08:04] <MachineScrew> ferronica: there is another way to change themes
[08:04] <`paul> heh okok next time ill do a man first search then ask hehe
[08:04] <MachineScrew> but first you have to have some that program gets themes from only art.gnome.org
[08:04] <MachineScrew> gnome-look.org has some themes as well
[08:05] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: let it d/l first
[08:05] <MachineScrew> all very simple to install
[08:05] <amicrawler> how do i do a sudo install apt get ?
[08:05] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: 65% done
[08:05] <Horaz> sudo apt-get install Blub
[08:06] <rohan> who can please donate some love - https://launchpad.net/bugs/40069 ?
[08:06] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: done
[08:06] <MachineScrew> cool
[08:06] <MachineScrew> now sellect one
[08:07] <MachineScrew> you can preview it install it what ever you need done
[08:07] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: which one u use??????????/
[08:07] <MachineScrew> ferronica: the default ;D
[08:08] <MachineScrew> I tend to use a blue theme
[08:08] <amicrawler> how do i add debian  src  apt get stuff to snaptic?
[08:08] <intelikey> `paul you will be primarily concerned with the last three digits of octal premissions.  they are a octal display of three, three digit binarry marks.   the first shows the owners permission the second the group then everybody else(world)    the binary numbers are   read write execute.  111 = 7 octal    so  755  would be  111 101 101 = rwx r_x r_x
[08:08] <MachineScrew> my gf like the blue ness
[08:08] <Flannel> amicrawler: you don't. Usually things don't work right.
[08:08] <amicrawler> oh i'm new to debian
[08:09] <ferronica> ok done
[08:09] <amicrawler> i use to rpms
[08:09] <amicrawler> from suse
[08:09] <j1p> is there a program that can help me re-map my keyboard customly, hopefully with profiles for easy switching?
[08:09] <MachineScrew> did it change it
[08:09] <MachineScrew> for you
[08:09] <ferronica> yessssssssssssssss
[08:09] <MachineScrew> cool
[08:09] <Madpilot> amicrawler, what app are you looking for?
[08:10] <pppoe_dude> are there any alternatives to the non-free flash player?
[08:10] <amicrawler> all the games that i could get in suse from src
[08:10] <MachineScrew> now to change it manuly in System > Prefrences > Themes
[08:10] <pppoe_dude> *plgin
[08:10] <ferronica> not its hot
[08:10] <zcat[1] > kino failing to import mjpeg clips from my canon A75, any suggestions? details at http://pastebin.com/704624
[08:10] <Madpilot> amicrawler, do you have the Universe repo enabled in Ubuntu?
[08:10] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: not any that is good
[08:10] <intelikey> pppoe_dude not using flash is a really good alternative imo
[08:10] <amicrawler> yes
[08:10] <polpak> `paul: you can also just use the non-geek method which would be      u=rwx,go=rx
[08:10] <amicrawler> i do
[08:10] <pppoe_dude> intelikey: i need to watch google video
[08:10] <amicrawler> and resrticted
[08:11] <amicrawler> but it is not what i'm looking for
[08:11] <pppoe_dude> intelikey: but i agree btw
[08:11] <intelikey> polpak that doesn't help in knowing how to set ?mask= settings.
[08:11] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: just get the non free one
[08:11] <Madpilot> amicrawler, which apps, then? (I've never run Suse, got no idea what's available for that distro...)
[08:11] <polpak> intelikey: true enough
[08:11] <amicrawler> any thing
[08:11] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: its not working with konqueror, only audio, and with firefox, only video
[08:12] <j1p> is there an app that allows you to remap keys?
[08:12] <orbin> i've been a *long* time dialup user.  our family desktop (xp)  just got connected w/ cable.  is it possible to get my ubuntu laptop to use the connection?  if so, what do i do?  i know it has wireless capability.
[08:12] <Madpilot> amicrawler, you really do need to be less vague than "anything"...
[08:12] <amicrawler> i can run mandrake rpms and redhat  and fedora core rpms and suse
[08:12] <protocol1> !kaffeine
[08:12] <ubotu> protocol1: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:12] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: you did a scan for new plugins
[08:12] <polpak> orbin: the easy way would be to get a cable/dsl router
[08:12] <Madpilot> amicrawler, look for .deb files, if you're certain that what you want isn't in Ubuntu's repos...
[08:12] <amicrawler> kaffeine sux
[08:12] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: yes, it partially works, so i know it recognises it, it just doesnt work right...
[08:12] <amicrawler> i'm loooking for asid rip
[08:13] <polpak> orbin: the slightly more difficult way would be to connect both computers to a LAN, and use the desktop to nat/gateway
[08:13] <intelikey> polpak actually every body should at least attempt to wrap their head around octal/binarry permissions.  if they are going to admin their own system
[08:13] <amicrawler> and  wintv card apps
[08:13] <MachineScrew> amicrawler: asid rip ??
[08:13] <pppoe_dude> almost seems as if video is disabled for some reason
[08:13] <Flannel> amicrawler: its the "acidrip" package.
[08:13] <MachineScrew> amicrawler: try kmplayer
[08:13] <amicrawler> have it
[08:13] <MachineScrew> KwinTV Myth TV???
[08:14] <amicrawler> and amrokn does not work
[08:14] <MachineScrew> libxine-extracodecs if in dapper
[08:14] <orbin> polpak: right.  like i said, i'm new to broadband.  the laptop had a brochure on wireless.  it showed a wireless router connected to the wired computer....the instructions were for xp though.  is it easy to set up in ubuntu?
[08:14] <amicrawler> mp3  jumbles but and amrko crashes
[08:14] <MachineScrew> if not amarok-xine
[08:14] <pppoe_dude> http://www.mtholyoke.edu/campaign/tour/html/detect/plugin.html <-- I get a positive result for flash from this site, however, i still don't get google video
[08:14] <roaet> ello
[08:15] <roaet> Is there a way to get the ubuntu install to use LILO instead of GRUB?
[08:15] <roaet> can I just type "expert" at the install CD prompt and do it as a debian installation?
[08:15] <j1p> you can choose it in the install at some point
[08:15] <Flannel> roaet: yeah, select lilo instead of grub.  You need to use the expert install.
[08:15] <pppoe_dude> i guess it could be a bug with google video
[08:15] <j1p> if you use XFS fs they install lilo automatically as well
[08:15] <polpak> orbin: a wireless router is fairly trivial to set up. You just connect the router to your cable modem, the destop and laptop to the router (via wired or wireless). It's very simple to do
[08:15] <roaet> I'm trying to unstall ubuntu on a MacBook Pro
[08:15] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: let me try
[08:15] <intelikey> roaet absoposalutly
[08:15] <roaet> unstall = install
[08:16] <roaet> Anyone know of it working?
[08:16] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: what is the google video address
[08:16] <Flannel> roaet: yeah, it works.
[08:16] <roaet> just use the install CD?
[08:16] <Flannel> Oh, macbook.  Sorry, missed that.  Thought we were tlaking about grub.  I imagine it works.  Google it.
[08:16] <pppoe_dude> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-869183917758574879 MachineScrew
[08:17] <intelikey> roaet expert method or even default.  if you refues to tell it where to install grub to will let you choose lilo
[08:17] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: i get a grey screen and audio
[08:17] <MachineScrew> nope it works for me
[08:17] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: however, with youtube.com, i get video
[08:17] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: try mininova
[08:17] <pppoe_dude> konqueror tells me theres coding erors on page
[08:17] <MachineScrew> they have it in xvid
[08:17] <orbin> right.  guess i'll go look for a wireless router then.  any suggestions for brands? i.e. any problematic ones w/ linux/ubuntu?
[08:17] <eggzeck> pppoe_dude, do you have swf-player?
[08:18] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: it works here in FF
[08:18] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: ok thanks :) google video usually allows me to download videos (free ones)
[08:18] <intelikey> roaet i can't answer the Mac quesion,  i'm mac illeterate
[08:18] <roaet> as am i
[08:18] <roaet> but I'm getting used to it
[08:18] <roaet> I just got windows installed.
[08:18] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: and the xvid is in much higher quality
[08:18] <pppoe_dude> eggzeck: i have the gstreamer version ya
[08:18] <roaet> About to do linux.. The wiki uses gentoo, but I prefer ubuntu
[08:18] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: whats FF?
[08:18] <orbin> j1p: yes, there are keyboard remappers in the repos.  one in particular i've seen recommended, but i've forgotten it.  do an apt search on "keyboard frontend"
[08:18] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: FireFox
[08:19] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: oh... yes it works on FF for me too... no audio but i think its an esd problem there
[08:19] <eggzeck> pppoe_dude, apt-get install swf-player
[08:19] <intelikey> oh crap. apt just installed bash.
[08:19] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: but that software version of the plugin could be the problem try removing that plugin
[08:19] <intelikey> Setting up bash (3.0-13) ...
[08:19] <intelikey> i had removed that....
[08:19] <eggzeck> pppoe_dude, use 'sudo'
[08:20] <orbin> polpak: right.  guess i'll go look for a wireless router then.  any suggestions for brands? i.e. any problematic ones w/ linux/ubuntu?
[08:20] <MachineScrew> Acidrip kinda pissed me off
[08:20] <MachineScrew> the command it uses to rip to xvid is out of date
[08:21] <MachineScrew> shouldn't be -ovc xvid -xvidencopts :bitrate=4109
[08:21] <MachineScrew> should be -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=4109
[08:21] <MachineScrew> just that little collen made the big diffrence
[08:22] <MachineScrew> so I told it to export the command and edited it
[08:22] <jtd> what do you guys recommend for doing LaTeX?  what's the correct package set to install for compiling BiBTeX and LaTeX, and is there a good IDE out there for it?
[08:22] <MachineScrew> ran it and works great
[08:22] <polpak> orbin: nope. they're all pretty compatable. The real trick will be your wireless nic in the laptop. Make sure that's compatable
[08:22] <AnAnt> where does Ubuntu mount shares that I connect to using the "Connect to server" menu item that's in gnome ?
[08:22] <orbin> jtd: latex-bin for latex stuff.  lyx if you want an IDE
[08:22] <jtd> thanks, orbin :)
[08:23] <cricek_ub> guys good webcam streaming software is ?
[08:23] <MachineScrew> orbin: there is a wireless compatibility list
[08:23] <jtd> orbin: E: Couldn't find package latex-bin
[08:23] <orbin> MachineScrew: polpak: ok. one sec. i'll just grab my laptop and give you the lspci output
[08:23] <pppoe_dude> flash video sucks anyway, uses like 70% CPU
[08:24] <polpak> orbin: use pastebin
[08:24] <MachineScrew> orbin: look here
[08:24] <MachineScrew> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[08:24] <intelikey> ok. i got bash and passwd removed again..... feels more like home now.
[08:24] <jtd> orbin: it's actually tetex-*
[08:24] <orbin> jtd: sorry, tetex-bin ... i'm not on my ubuntu machine unforutnately :)
[08:25] <orbin> jtd: yes, i normally double-check. sorry
[08:25] <cricek_ub> MachineScrew, my Netgear wg311T works great
[08:26] <cricek_ub> except on amd64 machine
[08:26] <Toma-> anyone else find that using gnomebaker is a good way to make lots of drink coasters and frisbees?
[08:26] <cricek_ub> Toma-, yes
[08:26] <Toma-> :|
[08:26] <cricek_ub> I use K3B ....
[08:26] <cricek_ub> or maybe I can't configure GB right
[08:27] <Toma-> ahh i just installed that the other day. dunno why im not using it.
[08:27] <intelikey> i prefer xcdroast
[08:27] <Toma-> for audio?
[08:27] <cricek_ub> yeah but it lacks features for creating audio CD
[08:27] <cricek_ub> ahm ...I think
[08:27] <intelikey> it does aud
[08:28] <Toma-> i c
[08:28] <cricek_ub> :)
[08:28] <cafe> The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.
[08:28] <cricek_ub> xcdroast then :)
[08:28] <cricek_ub> k3b is very user friendly by the way and with my sister that realy counts
[08:28] <MachineScrew> cricek_ub: my ATT Wireless works OOTB
[08:28] <orbin> polpak, MachineScrew: should i be looking at the wireless LAN controller in lspci?
[08:29] <MachineScrew> yes
[08:29] <cricek_ub> OOTB ??
[08:29] <cricek_ub> :)
[08:29] <Toma-> well it just crashed on me.
[08:29] <Toma-> sigh.
[08:29] <MachineScrew> lspci -v | less
[08:29] <intelikey> yeah that's probably why i don't like it as much.... it's to M$'ish
[08:29] <MachineScrew> Out Of The Box
[08:29] <cricek_ub> MachineScrew, sure
[08:29] <cricek_ub> :)
[08:29] <orbin> MachineScrew, polpak: Broadcom Corp. BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN controller (rev 03)
[08:30] <MachineScrew> orbin: ndiswrapper
[08:30] <Toma-> gah.
[08:30] <cricek_ub> Anyway I'll get my wire soon in this room
[08:30] <polpak> orbin: seems fine then. Just be sure to get a type G router
[08:30] <orbin> polpak: type G?  like i said, new to broadband
[08:30] <cricek_ub> the only thing I miss on linux is support for 108MB/s
[08:31] <MachineScrew> orbin: ya
[08:31] <cricek_ub> that both router and wireless support
[08:31] <MachineScrew> G is faster
[08:31] <aaron> haw do i get frost whire
[08:31] <polpak> !frostwire
[08:31] <orbin> MachineScrew: oh, ok
[08:31] <polpak> !tell aaron about frostwire
[08:31] <MachineScrew> and shure to be compatible stay away from pre-n stuff
[08:31] <Flannel> orbin: 802.11g is faster than .11a or .11b, g things are downward compatable to .11b
[08:31] <cricek_ub> so anyone here tried any webcam streaming software
[08:31] <orbin> Flannel: thankyou
[08:31] <cricek_ub> I tried motion
[08:32] <cricek_ub> but it uses too much bandwidth
[08:32] <MachineScrew> 802.11n is supposed to be fast and better than 802.11g but isn't stanardised yet
[08:32] <intelikey> dpkg - warning, overriding problem because --force enabled:   Removing login ...
[08:32] <intelikey> Purging configuration files for login ...
[08:32] <cafuego> orbin: Dapper supports that with a native driver as well.

[08:32] <ubotu> To use your broadcom or airport extreme card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx for info and firmware.
[08:32] <zcat[1] > actually I can't import any video.. yes ffmpeg and mplayer and mencoder and w32codecs are installed.
[08:33] <orbin> cafuego: thanks for the link
[08:33] <cricek_ub> any video ? zcat[1] 
[08:33] <vars> zcat[1] , hey i can't get on to the internet with my other computer now
[08:33] <zcat[1] > 'mjpoeg from my camera, mpeg or mp4 or anything else from anywhere else.. they should get automagically converted. Everyone else says it just works. It won't work for me, on three different machines.
[08:34] <orbin> now, a stupid question: i'm guessing the usage is shared among all computers connected to the router.  do i just login w/ the same username/password on the laptop?
[08:35] <delmar> hey everyone.. im trying to get teamspeak to play nicely with the other audio apps/games that i wanna run but its hogging the audio hardware.. .whats the story with getting things to "mix" audio nicely?
[08:35] <AnAnt> I got a problem in Ubuntu, I put this in my fstab: //sysdpdc/globalshare /home/ant1/mnt/globalshare cifs user,username=myusername,noauto,exec 0 0
[08:35] <AnAnt> now I try to pmount /home/ant1/mnt/globalshare/ , it asks me for a password, so I supply it, and it won't mount, giving me this error: "Operation not permitted"
[08:35] <AnAnt> yet, if i mount as root, it will accept, why's that ?
[08:35] <intelikey> hmmm this presents a challange... "tty9 [I have no name!#~]  whoami
[08:35] <intelikey> whoami: cannot find username for UID 0
[08:36] <intelikey> it must parse the /etc/passwd file...
[08:36] <pitti> AnAnt: pmount currently doesn't support mounting NFS shares
[08:36] <AnAnt> ic
[08:36] <AnAnt> thx
[08:36] <pitti> AnAnt: mount them with normal 'mount' command
[08:36] <intelikey> which doesn't exist on this box
[08:36] <AnAnt> pitti: wait, I can pmount when I am root
[08:36] <pitti> AnAnt: (as root), or add the 'user' option to mount it as user
[08:36] <orbin> or is there even a need to login?  do i just get a working connection when i set the drivers up?
[08:36] <pitti> AnAnt: well, the thing is, pmount behaves exactly like mount for stuff in /etc/fstab
[08:37] <AnAnt> pitti: I did add the user option
[08:37] <pitti> AnAnt: oh, I see
[08:37] <Seveas> (intelikey: earlier on you fell victim to a bug in Ubugtu (how ironic), sorry for that, the bug has been fixed)
[08:37] <dushy> hello all :)
[08:37] <mlalkaka> will Dapper Drake come with Xgl or AIGLX? If so, which one?
[08:37] <dushy> i have a problem in viewing video files.. can any one fix my problem?
[08:38] <intelikey> orbin ssh ?    you can ssh username@hostip
[08:38] <driggers> hello.  i have a rather general question.  why is it so hard (for me, a relative linux newbie) to install programs on linux ( i have ubuntu).  i download files with long, incomprehensible names, use programs that give a lot of errors.  unpack stuff, do a lot of trial and error w/ the words config and make, find i'm missing essential parts of my compiler and end up making a big mess
[08:38] <pitti> mlalkaka: you can install xserver-xgl and play with it, but it's not supported in dapper
[08:38] <driggers> there is a point to this btw
[08:38] <zcat[1] > kino failing to import mjpeg clips from my canon A75, any suggestions? details at http://pastebin.com/704624
[08:38] <driggers> is there something obvious i'm missing?  like maybe a "how do do your basic program installation guide and where important things are and go in you linux machine guide?"
[08:39] <intelikey> driggers because you are not installing via the package manager.
[08:39] <zcat[1] > driggers: because you're thinking like a windows user
[08:39] <vars> hey ia am trying to run apt-get update and i get i can't stat source package
[08:39] <dushy> i have problem in viewing my video files.. i can hear only sound but no pic.. why so?

[08:40] <vars> i've restarted my computer like six times
[08:40] <poningru> zcat[1] : try diva
[08:40] <Flannel> driggers: yes.
[08:41] <zcat[1] > sorry. I'm not elping anyone else until I get kino sorted.
[08:41] <poningru> oh gnoes

[08:41] <vladuz976> anybody here know how i can use gnuplot to plot data from an openoffice spreadsheet? how do i feed the data?
[08:41] <vars> zcat[1] , you should try lives
[08:41] <intelikey> !tell driggers about repos
[08:41] <Flannel> driggers: in ubuntu, most people would never need to compile anything from source.
[08:41] <vars> yeah what is diva?
[08:42] <driggers> Flannel so which binary do i download?
[08:42] <zcat[1] > I want kino. it's supposed to work.
[08:42] <driggers> what kind of name would it have
[08:42] <vars> how do i reconfigure a dsl connection?
[08:42] <Flannel> driggers: you search for it, in synaptic, search name and description.
[08:42] <mneptok> vars: do you use a router, or connect the DSL modem directly to your computer?
[08:43] <Flannel> driggers: for whatever you were looking for.
[08:43] <intelikey> driggers why are you downloading anything ?
[08:43] <poningru> http://www.diva-project.org/
[08:43] <driggers> uhm... why not?
[08:43] <poningru> driggers: hehe
[08:43] <Flannel> driggers: you install stuff via synaptic.
[08:43] <driggers> skype not in synaptic
[08:43] <driggers> oh. nvm someone pmed me about it
[08:43] <poningru> !easyubuntu
[08:43] <zcat[1] > vars: plug modem in and type 'sudo dhclient' - that should reconfigure it.
[08:43] <vars> mneptok, nevermind
[08:44] <Flannel> yeah, easyubuntu is the way to go for that.
[08:44] <zcat[1] > modem/router/pos
[08:44] <vars> zcat[1] , ha that is waht i did
[08:44] <zcat[1] > sorry, i wasn't helping.
[08:44] <intelikey> well if you want to be in here whining about how hard it is to install anything on linux.... keep downloading.    if you would rather do it the easy way. use the package manager.
[08:44] <vars> and it worked
[08:44] <poningru> oh nm
[08:44] <zcat[1] > vars: good. know anything about kino? :)
[08:45] <vars> i know that lives is top notch cinnerella grade, but it works
[08:45] <vars> i tried to use kino but it didn't fly
[08:45] <vars> i am sorry
[08:45] <intelikey> what package is su in?   is that in login ?
[08:45] <zcat[1] > yeah, ok. at least someone else agrees kino is borked!
[08:46] <vars> zcat[1] , what are you doing?
[08:46] <zcat[1] > where is lives/ got a repo?
[08:46] <vars> video editing right
[08:46] <vars> just a sec
[08:46] <poningru> intelikey: filling a bug?
[08:46] <zcat[1] > trying to (ironically) edit a series of videos I'm doing to compare winXP wuth Ubuntu in terms of useability!
[08:46] <AlmtyBob> is smb enabled by default on Ubuntu?
[08:46] <poningru> AlmtyBob: only client
[08:46] <poningru> not server
[08:46] <AlmtyBob> ah ok
[08:47] <cafe> were i can find a sample OJT certificates that i can open in openoffice writer
[08:47] <AlmtyBob> I should apt-get some samba server?
[08:47] <poningru> yep
[08:47] <zcat[1] > and it's fscking KILLING me that I might have to use Windows to edit it!@
[08:47] <AlmtyBob> thanks
[08:47] <poningru> well no
[08:47] <intelikey> poningru no. it's not a bug.  just thought i might actually need that file, seeing that i use it to open the initial console
[08:47] <AlmtyBob> trying to setup mythtv on my xbox
[08:47] <poningru> AlmtyBob: its already installed you just have to turn it on iirc
[08:47] <delmar> ok this is pretty lame. I should be able to have multiple applications sharing the audio hardware.
[08:47] <AlmtyBob> err an xbmc mythtv frontend
[08:47] <zcat[1] > everything else I have never had a problem. Video editing is easy in Windows and damn near impossible in Linux.
[08:48] <delmar> What am i missing here with ubuntu... why isn't it mixing the audio correctly.
[08:48] <vars> zcat[1] ,
[08:48] <vars> deb http://people.ubuntubrasil.org/~rclbelem/lives/breezy/ binary/
[08:48] <vars> do you run dapper
[08:48] <poningru> AlmtyBob: um why use smb for that/
[08:48] <zcat[1] > thanks!!
[08:48] <poningru> ?
[08:48] <zcat[1] > yes, dapper
[08:48] <vars> just replace the breezy with dapper
[08:48] <AlmtyBob> poningru: it uses a python script, the script gets the recordings/buffer by connecting to a samba share of the vids
[08:48] <poningru> ah ic
[08:48] <vars> deb http://people.ubuntubrasil.org/~rclbelem/lives/dapper/ binary/
[08:48] <poningru> did not know that
[08:48] <AlmtyBob> ghetto fabolous, but the interface is very nice
[08:48] <driggers> if i try to install skype (w/ apt-get) while updating the system, might i get an error b/c of this?
[08:49] <intelikey> delmar in the apps settings tell them to use esd  or alsa
[08:49] <poningru> hehe one of my friends is a dev
[08:49] <AlmtyBob> of xbmc?
[08:49] <poningru> mythtv
[08:49] <delmar> intelikey, is there a "device" i can point it to ?
[08:49] <AlmtyBob> ah
[08:49] <orbin> driggers: you'd probably get a dpkg lock error
[08:49] <vars> zcat[1] , install everything it suggest   and check out the web page at http://lives.sourceforge.net/index.php?do=home
[08:49] <intelikey> delmar dsp
[08:49] <AlmtyBob> xbmc is the greatest thing since sliced bread
[08:49] <delmar> intelikey, it is
[08:49] <poningru> hehe
[08:50] <delmar> intelikey, as soon as i fire up.. TeamSpeak for example... and its using /dev/dsp ... other stuff wont output sound until i close TS.
[08:50] <driggers> orbin:  aaah!  get out of my computer!
[08:50] <intelikey> delmar but you need to tell the apps not to try to write dirrectly.  but to use esd
[08:50] <AlmtyBob> poningru: totally worth it, especially if you have an hd/edtv?
[08:50] <AlmtyBob> -?
[08:50] <zcat[1] > apt thinks I should get a new kernel..
[08:51] <zcat[1] > might as well :) then I'll try lives.
[08:51] <intelikey> !teamspeak
[08:51] <ubotu> intelikey: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:51] <vars> what is xbmc?
[08:51] <driggers> ne1 installed armagetron?
[08:51] <GreySim> X-Box Media Center
[08:51] <poningru> xbox media center
[08:51] <delmar> intelikey, how...
[08:51] <driggers> can't find in wiki
[08:51] <poningru> driggers: sorry but what are you looking for?
[08:51] <GreySim> I'm in full agreeance of XBMC being brilliant, by the way.  :)
[08:51] <driggers> armagetron advanced.  video game
[08:51] <intelikey> delmar i have seen your question, many times.  check the wiki's and forums
[08:52] <BlueEagle> greysim: brilliant as in Paula Bean (thedailywtf.com)?
[08:52] <poningru> delmar: what are you looking for?
[08:52] <zcat[1] > perhaps someone could put lives in eft?
[08:52] <delmar> intelikey, something must be screwed up because i just installed Audacity, and it bombs as soon as i start it.. "there was an error initialising the audio i/o layer " blah blah.. and under prefs. there is no audio in/out device to choose
[08:53] <BlueEagle> delmar: Audacity doesn't like ESD as far as I remember.
[08:53] <vars> zcat[1] ,  they are over in #lives   hardly anyone around
[08:53] <vars> -- time for bed
[08:53] <delmar> ah ok
[08:53] <zcat[1] > bookmarked the page anyhow.. thanks heaps vars!
[08:53] <delmar> well thats another problem again then i guess.
[08:53] <BlueEagle> delmar: Try using alsa w/o the software daemon.
[08:53] <zcat[1] > hope it works :)
[08:53] <vars> hey what do i need to ad to my repos to get mplayer?
[08:53] <intelikey> yeah.
[08:53] <vars> zcat[1] , it is funky

[09:21] <Baldev> I need help getting my motorola wireless adapters working on linux..
[09:21] <Baldev> Otherwise, my linux install is 100% useless :] 
[09:22] <rabbitear> Baldev, might wanna check in #wireless if you can get somebody to talk...
[09:23] <rabbitear> Baldev, they are pretty good, and the FAQ of theirs is okay too
[09:23] <Baldev> Ok
[09:24] <rabbitear> Baldev, what kind of card anyway?
[09:24] <Baldev> Wel
[09:24] <Baldev> Well, I have two different choices
[09:24] <rabbitear> 802.11b/g or cell gprs?
[09:24] <Baldev> One is a Motorola WPCI810G
[09:24] <Baldev> eh
[09:24] <Baldev> b
[09:24] <Baldev> and g
[09:24] <Baldev> one PCI and one USB
[09:25] <rabbitear> just courious if it was a cell card.... don't know anything about that card, but usually the PCI stuff works *before* the usb...
[09:25] <Baldev> heh
[09:26] <Baldev> I haven't actually tried the PCI
[09:26] <rabbitear> in my limited experience
[09:26] <Baldev> However
[09:26] <Baldev> When I booted with the USB
[09:26] <Baldev> It .. recognized it in a sense
[09:26] <adrigen> excuse me anyone. but do you know if i can upload a compressed file to a server and then uncompress it on the server? if so what is the command line ofr unziping it?
[09:26] <Baldev> In the device manager.. or something like that
[09:26] <Baldev> It said Motorola Wireless USB etc et
[09:26] <Baldev> c
[09:26] <Baldev> But I couldn't activiate it
[09:26] <Baldev> I'm a linux noob.. so...
[09:27] <Baldev> I don't know if there's anything else to do, or.. if I'm just SOL.
[09:27] <rabbitear> I have a D-link USB card, that works, but not 100% of the time, more like 50% of the time, so I switched to a pcmcia.. and back to ethernet for the desktop
[09:27] <Baldev> O.o
[09:27] <Baldev> I only have a deskto
[09:27] <Baldev> p
[09:27] <Baldev> I can't use ethernet, either
[09:27] <Baldev> There's something fsked up with the power lines in the walls
[09:27] <Baldev> I tried the powerline adaptors
[09:27] <rabbitear> google the card(s) at http://google.com/linux
[09:27] <adrigen> no one?
[09:28] <vars> zcat[1] , are you looking for them for lives?

[09:28] <Wirwing> what i should do...?
[09:28] <enquest> Grub doesn't see that I also have windows... How do I add this to the grub menu?
[09:28] <Baldev> is ndiswrapper included with ubuntu?

[09:29] <rabbitear> as far as I know... I might be wrong ndiswrapper will not do USB plugs (wifi)

[09:29] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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
[09:30] <BlueEagle> wirwing: Are you using ESD or ALSA directly?
[09:30] <adrigen> hmmm... back to windows
[09:30] <dli> Wirwing, try mplayer, mplayer prints why there's no sound
[09:30] <vars> zcat[1] , ImageMagick   <<<  i think you can apt-get that
[09:30] <rabbitear> Baldev, if I ws you, I'd work with the PCI before the USB card....
[09:30] <poningru> Baldev: you have a wireless right with usb?
[09:31] <vars> and that has a lot of what you need
[09:31] <vars> zcat[1] , good luck
[09:31] <vars> good night
[09:31] <Baldev> what?
[09:31] <Baldev> I have a usb wireless card
[09:31] <Baldev> and a pci card
[09:31] <Baldev> I'm hesitant to use the PCI card though, because it's on my main system and I already have a lot of things plugged into it
[09:32] <Wirwing> dli: i think than ure not understanding me.... when i open a mpg or wmv file, i CANT see the video, but i can hear the audio...
[09:32] <rabbitear> Baldev, ask Wireless ...
[09:32] <Wirwing> dli: i'm using Totem to view the file
[09:32] <rabbitear> Baldev, some knowledgable guys there, ndiswrapper *I beleive* doesn't run USB cards
[09:32] <dli> Wirwing, yes, try mplayer
[09:32] <Baldev> hm
[09:32] <Baldev> well.. i'll try it
[09:32] <Baldev> after that
[09:32] <Baldev> i'm goin to bed
[09:32] <thoreauputic> Wirwing: do you have w32codecs installed ?
[09:32] <Baldev> k :P thanks guys, bye
[09:33] <thoreauputic> Wirwing: and are you using totem-xine?
[09:33] <thoreauputic> !tell Wirwing about restricted
[09:34] <Wirwing> thoreaputic: no....
[09:35] <thoreauputic> Wirwing: no what? Have you read that URL ? (n that ubotu just sent you )
[09:35] <Wirwing> "Movie Player using GStreamer version 0.8.11"
[09:35] <thoreauputic> Wirwing: readt eh restricted format wiki
[09:35] <thoreauputic> *the
[09:35] <Wirwing> thoreauputic: ok :)
[09:36] <thoreauputic> WildZeck: wmv requires w32codecs, and totem-xine for totem
[09:36] <thoreauputic> !w32codecs
[09:37] <thoreauputic> hmm
[09:37] <thoreauputic> !+w32codecs
[09:37] <ubotu> from memory, w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install. To use w32codecs on a 64-bit system, see http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=54399
[09:38] <Steve|> hey, can someone help me install a wireless lan card? http://atmelwlandriver.sourceforge.net/downloads.html <-- thats the site for the driver of it.. I'm new to linux, so I have no clue. At the moment I am on Windows XP, so I can't really do anything at the moment, but if you could please tell me what steps to take i would be thankful.

[09:48] <AlmtyBob> what do I put in smb.conf so that samba won't require a username or password for accessing my shares?
[09:48] <zcat[1] > what are eft's tests going to be called? swim1.. ?
[09:49] <zcat[1] > AlmtyBob: change authentication from user to share
[09:49] <thoreauputic> zcat[1] : landings maybe ? *g*
[09:49] <zcat[1] > And eft's a fish, right?
[09:49] <AlmtyBob> zcat[1] : I put "security = share" in there, do I need to restart smbd?
[09:49] <thoreauputic> zcat[1] : no, a newt
[09:49] <hyphenated> AlmtyBob: of course you need to restart :-)
[09:49] <zcat[1] > ahh yes /etc/init.d/samba restart
[09:49] <hyphenated> it's not magical
[09:49] <AlmtyBob> ah ok I was trying smbd restart
[09:49] <hyphenated> or 'reload'
[09:50] <AlmtyBob> hmm, did that but it still says "The account is not authorized to log in from this station."
[09:51] <AlmtyBob> when I try to connect through my windows box
[09:51] <manuvcube> what's the default MTA in Ubuntu? (can't find sendmail)
[09:52] <AlmtyBob> oh
[09:52] <AlmtyBob> it helps to UNCOMMENT the line in the .conf
[09:52] <firebird619> What package do I need when getting a XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool?
[09:52] <AlmtyBob> hah thanks hyphenated/zcat[1] 
[09:52] <mikedep333> almtybob: sometimes the windows command "net use" helps resolve those
[09:52] <thoreauputic> manuvcube: there isn't one by default - you can install one ( used to be postfix)
[09:52] <AlmtyBob> f5 worked just fine 8)
[09:52] <manuvcube> thoreauputic:  thx, will do so now

[09:59] <ndlovu> I'm trying to install a gimp plugin from source, but it's giving me a lot of errors. Can someone look here (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13609) and suggest what could be wrong?
[09:59] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: check your sources list for errors
[10:00] <wendigo> guerrilla: try using apt-cache search <package> to find a suitable candidate
[10:00] <datieman> wendigo, there is no such option
[10:00] <ubotu> Ubuntu Package/File/Desc Search of 'libvisual0.2-plugins' returned no results.
[10:00] <thoreauputic> datieman: ubotu just did that for him
[10:00] <guerrilla> thoreauputic: sources list as in repositories?
[10:01] <wendigo> datieman: maybe ask in #gnome (assuming you are using gnome)
[10:01] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: it's in main, so something is wrong with your repository setup, yes
[10:01] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:01] <guerrilla> its saying its not available, but is refered to by another package
[10:01] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: as I said, it's in main - thus something is wrong
[10:02] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: did you run apt-get update?
[10:02] <guerrilla> thoreauputic: i have not run that, i'll do it right now and see what i get
[10:02] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: are you on breezy ?
[10:02] <datieman> thoreauputic, ubotu just did the same?
[10:02] <ndlovu> alternatively, can someone suggest a good batch processing tool for images, that does not require advanced knowledge of scripting languages...
[10:03] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: if you are on dapper ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:03] <guerrilla> thoreauputic: i went through setting up the repositories on the wiki
[10:03] <guerrilla> thoreauputic: i'm on breezy
[10:03] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: then run sudo apt-get update and try again
[10:04] <wendigo> guerrilla: pastebin your sources.list
[10:04] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: as you saw, ubotu found the package
[10:04] <datieman> thoreauputic, what did you just mean?
[10:04] <guerrilla> yeah i just ran update, and it's still not finding it
[10:04] <guerrilla> i'll pastebin my source list
[10:04] <thoreauputic> datieman: the bot can do package and file searches
[10:04] <guerrilla> 1 min
[10:04] <wendigo> guerrilla: http://rafb.net/paste/
[10:04] <datieman> thoreauputic, so what does that have todo with my question?
[10:05] <di> hi
[10:05] <thoreauputic> datieman: sorry I must ahve missed something I guess
[10:05] <di> agpgart keeps putting my ati rage 128 card into 1x mode
[10:05] <thoreauputic> *have
[10:05] <di> how do i put it back to 4x?
[10:06] <wendigo> ndlovu: imagemagick
[10:06] <di>  agpgart: Putting AGP V2 device at 0000:01:00.0 into 1x mode
[10:07] <guerrilla> http://rafb.net/paste/results/scrwRC96.html
[10:07] <guerrilla> wendigo: there you go
[10:07] <wendigo> ndlovu: bbips as well for complete directory manipulation
[10:07] <guerrilla> wendigo: i followed the repository setup on the wiki so i don't know what i may have done wrong
[10:08] <ndlovu> wendigo: thanks, but it seems there will need to be quite a steep learning curve to figure imagemagick out?
[10:08] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: uncomment the main and restricted lines
[10:08] <guerrilla> ok i'll do that
[10:08] <wendigo> guerrilla: ye, you need to uncomment some of those
[10:08] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: and the security lines too
[10:09] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: adding universe doesn't remove the need for the others :)
[10:09] <guerrilla> yeah i guess just following the wiki isn't all i needed to be doing
[10:10] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: and don't forget to update afterwards - the wiki doesn't tell you to do what you did, BTW :)
[10:10] <guerrilla> i def read it on there
[10:10] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: i.e. it doesn't say to  disable main etc
[10:10] <guerrilla> i followed one that said to add universe and multiverse
[10:10] <wendigo> ndlovu: bbips uses imagemagick as a library thats all
[10:10] <guerrilla> i never disabled anything
[10:11] <wendigo> ndlovu: bbips is the main application you will be using
[10:11] <guerrilla> i've only made one change the repositories and it was an addition
[10:11] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: well you must have or they wouldn't be commented out
[10:11] <ndlovu> wendigo: thanks, I'll look into that (and maybe dabble in some commandline stuff)
[10:11] <guerrilla> i've never opened this file, i used the GUI one
[10:11] <guerrilla> synaptic or what ever
[10:12] <wendigo> guerrilla: heres mine if it helps. you will need to adjust for breezy/servers. http://rafb.net/paste/results/7sn7I558.html
[10:12] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: OK - well somehow you disabled the repos i mentioned, so re-enable them
[10:12] <AlmtyBob> what's the command to see how much cpu's being used?
[10:12] <guerrilla> so basically, i'm uncommenting all of em on the list
[10:12] <guerrilla> all but one have main, security, and/or restricted
[10:12] <guerrilla> sound right?
[10:12] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: I suggest you not uncomment backports
[10:13] <shylock> Anyone have any idea why i cant choose 1600x1200 as desktop resolution? i have a new ubuntu install ati graphics and a 20" tft
[10:13] <ndlovu> AlmtyBob: top should do the trick from the commandline
[10:13] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: unless you have a special need for a particular backport
[10:13] <ndlovu> AlmtyBob: shows processor usage, memory, active processes, etc.
[10:13] <AlmtyBob> thanks
[10:13] <wendigo> shylock: have you setup your ati drivers?
[10:13] <shylock> wendigo,  no
[10:14] <shylock> wendigo, should i do so?
[10:14] <thoreauputic> !tell shylock about fixres
[10:14] <wendigo> shylock: then i suggest doing so
[10:14] <di> how do i put it back to 4x?
[10:14] <di> agpgart keeps putting my ati rage 128 card into 1x mode
[10:14] <di>  agpgart: Putting AGP V2 device at 0000:01:00.0 into 1x mode
[10:14] <guerrilla> ok, backports commented, security, main, restricted uncommented
[10:14] <AlmtyBob> if cpu says "100% id" does that means the cpu is idle?
[10:14] <shylock> wendigo, thank you
[10:14] <wendigo> shylock: you also might need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and specify the resolution there under the screen section
[10:14] <guerrilla> running apt-get update
[10:15] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: cool, now update them and you should be good to go
[10:15] <thoreauputic> right
[10:15] <guerrilla> ok i'll report back
[10:15] <thoreauputic> :)
[10:15] <AlmtyBob> because mythTV is running super slow for some reason
[10:15] <AlmtyBob> playback is ok, but the interface is just slow as mud
[10:16] <shylock> wendigo, you know if there is possible to get ati drivers with apt-get or something similar?
[10:16] <wendigo> shylock: sudo apt-get update && apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) && dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg --priority=medium
[10:16] <wendigo> shylock: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) && sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg --priority=medium
[10:17] <wendigo> shylock: use that second one
[10:17] <shylock> wendigo, WOW!! did you type that off your head?
[10:17] <wendigo> shylock: ye :)
[10:17] <shylock> wendigo, insane :)
[10:18] <vladuz976> anybody know if tab separated text files can open in openoffice spreadsheets?
[10:18] <guerrilla> thoreauputic: alrighty, its working, thanks for the help
[10:18] <wendigo> vladuz976: yes, if you use the correct filter
[10:18] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: yw :)
[10:18] <vladuz976> wendigo: how do i do it?
[10:19] <zithowa> how do I change the welcome message when I login?
[10:19] <wendigo> vladuz976: file->open, select correct filter, click open
[10:19] <vladuz976> wendigo: this would be really helpful, i have a bunch of files for gnuplot that i wanna edit in openoffice calc
[10:19] <thoreauputic> zithowa: edit /etc/motd IIRC
[10:19] <thoreauputic> zithowa: unless it's a remote login
[10:19] <guerrilla> thoreauputic: on a different note, is there a easier way to direct a msg to someone without typing their whole name?
[10:20] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: use tab to complete the name
[10:20] <zithowa> thoreauputic: it's over ssh
[10:20] <guerrilla> thoreauputic, awsome
[10:20] <thoreauputic> guerrilla: like thore <tab>
[10:20] <guerrilla> thoreauputic, thank god, or you
[10:20] <guerrilla> thoreauputic, =D
[10:20] <vladuz976> wendigo: file->open doesn't give filter option
[10:20] <shylock> wendigo, do i have to restart x for changes to take place?
[10:21] <wendigo> shylock: you will probably need to reboot
[10:21] <shevegen> i have installed the latest dapper, now i did "apt-get install build-essentials" to get gcc. For this I had to insert the install CD again. My question is:  Is there a command to install everything on the CD on the system? (Its on another PC by the way.)
[10:22] <shylock> wendigo, ok thank u for everything
[10:22] <wendigo> vladuz976: Text CSV ?
[10:22] <thoreauputic> zithowa: I forget - /etc/net something I think..
[10:22] <shevegen> something like "apt-get install whole-cd-content" or so ;-)
[10:23] <boris> pls can someone help me to fine a driver for my wifi card (usr5410)
[10:23] <GreySim> shevegen: This doesn't answer your question directly, and I'm not sure how to answer it directly, but my own workaround to that is to just comment out the CD in sources.list and get everything online.
[10:23] <wendigo> vladuz976: the combobox below the file list in the open file dialog
[10:23] <vladuz976> wendigo: the files were generated by LabView it's just a plain text file with columns
[10:23] <thoreauputic> zithowa: /etc/issue.net maybe
[10:23] <GreySim> That way I don't have to dig out the CD every time I need something that's on it...
[10:23] <wendigo> vladuz976: you said they were comma separated?
[10:23] <vladuz976> wendigo: tab separated
[10:23] <vladuz976> wendigo: not comma
[10:24] <wendigo> vladuz976: oh, moment
[10:24] <zithowa> thoreauputic: motd will do the trick I reckon.  If I want to customize the message per user then I reckon I'll have to add something in the shell initiation script
[10:25] <zithowa> thoreauputic: thanks by the way :)
[10:25] <GreySim> shevegen: All the packages on the CD are in one directory though, I think, so you can go into that directory and try "sudo dpkg -i *.deb" or something along those lines.
[10:25] <vladuz976> wendigo: like this http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/tgVdZh93.html
[10:25] <thoreauputic> zithowa: it's bugging methat I can't remember the file ;)
[10:25] <highvoltage> hi, i installed a package called j2re1.4, which seems to be the blackdown jre, but it installs the sun jre?
[10:26] <thoreauputic> highvoltage: as far as I know, it installs Blackdown Java
[10:26] <wendigo> vladuz976: hmm, you could try Text CSV anyways, might work, or xls type
[10:26] <thoreauputic> highvoltage: run sudo update-alternatives --config java
[10:27] <vladuz976> wendigo: i don't even have that dialog you talking about
[10:27] <wendigo> vladuz976: what happends when you click file->open in the menu?
[10:28] <vladuz976> wendigo: open dialog pops up
[10:28] <wendigo> vladuz976: is there a combobox that has all files in it?
[10:28] <shevegen> ok GreySim
[10:28] <vladuz976> wendigo: you mean the filetype drop down?
[10:28] <shevegen> once i have a handle its easier to google up too :-)
[10:28] <wendigo> vladuz976: yes
[10:28] <vladuz976> wendigo: yes
[10:29] <viper12> This has probably been asked a thousand times, but I've been away (work).....so don't shootme.   1,  Why did they go with the nonconfigurable screensaver deal, and 2 why is xchat a manual install in dapper???
[10:29] <highvoltage> thoreauputic: it lists three options, what would you like to see therE?
[10:29] <vladuz976> wendigo: when i set that to spreadsheet it only gives me the spreadsheet files not my text files
[10:29] <thoreauputic> highvoltage: erm - whichever one you prefer
[10:29] <wendigo> vladuz976: in there should be a Text CSV and many other filters. you could try Text CSV or xls and see if they produce a good result. If not then you will have to use a script or something to convert it
[10:30] <thoreauputic> highvoltage: I asume you want to use the Blackdown jre, which is 1.4 something
[10:30] <ben32167> do you know the percentage of ubuntu users that use irc2_
[10:30] <purpleidea> hey everyone, just wanted to know if anyone experienced or knows anything about the gnome network manager icon dissapearing (crashing?) upon wireless radio activation either with hardware switch turning it on, or by modprobe/iwconfig
[10:30] <rem> .
[10:31] <zelevw> hi...is it normal for prelink to take very long after installing updates to your system?  it also complained that some files had the wrong magic bytes in them...
[10:31] <vladuz976> wendigo: oh does this look for filename extensions? then i can just rename them all and open emthat way
[10:31] <thoreauputic> zelevw: I assume it's running a complete prelink, so yes, it takes a while
[10:31] <wendigo> vladuz976: i'm not sure what you mean. you are trying to open this file in open office yes?
[10:32] <suicida> can somebody help me with fglrx, i've used the same way of installing as everytime before (http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/ATI/fglrx) but this time OpenGL doesn't work (xorg.conf -> http://rafb.net/paste/results/6TmYhf48.html / Error -> http://rafb.net/paste/results/oWcN4a18.html )
[10:32] <zelevw> thoreauputic: i ran a complete one when i installed it yesterday...will it do this every time?
[10:32] <ompaul> morning thoreauputic
[10:32] <ndlovu> wendigo: thanks for the bbips suggestion - seems to be doing the trick
[10:32] <thoreauputic> zelevw: no, it does incremental prelinks from a cron job
[10:32] <wendigo> vladuz976: just open the file. if it doesn't reconize the format it will ask for filter for it
[10:32] <thoreauputic> ompaul: hello there :)
[10:32] <wendigo> ndlovu: welcome
[10:33] <zelevw> thoreauputic: scheduled, correct?
[10:33] <vladuz976> wendigo: i have a file named 1300-1700Hz and open office doesn't see it if filter is csv if i move it to 1300-1700Hz.txt i can open it fine in a spreadsheet
[10:33] <thoreauputic> zelevw: as far as I know, yes
[10:33] <zelevw> thoreauputic: well, this is not scheduled, I just installed updates to my system.
[10:33] <wendigo> vladuz976: use .csv extension
[10:33] <wahjava> how do I create users during installation of a package i.e. in .deb file
[10:34] <vladuz976> wendigo: ok
[10:34] <thoreauputic> zelevw: yes, but prelink presumably is prelinking the stuff you installed
[10:34] <wahjava> Shall I add useradd in postinst script
[10:34] <vladuz976> wendigo: stupid question, but do you know where to change how many decimal places are displayed in openoffice?
[10:35] <zelevw> thoreauputic: it seems like an awful long time in comparison to a full system prelink...can you shed any light on the wrong magic bytes at the start? thanks
[10:35] <wendigo> vladuz976: right click cell for individual formats
[10:35] <ben32167> how do ' l'st the part't'ons us'ng fd'sk_
[10:35] <thoreauputic> zelevw: sorry - I don't know
[10:35] <ben32167> dam keyborad
[10:35] <zelevw> thoreauputic: thanks anyhow :-)
[10:35] <mustard5> ben32167, sudo fdisk -l
[10:36] <luke> anyone know how I can uninstall Enemy Territory??
[10:36] <wendigo> vladuz976: format cell usually works, but you can probably do it globally as well in the tools->options or something
[10:36] <vladuz976> wendigo: thanks, really helped a lot, gotta get my lab report done
[10:36] <mustard5> luke, I think it just installs to a folder in the $HOME directory doesnt it?
[10:36] <purpleidea> hey mustard5!
[10:37] <luke> no, itsl ike /usr/bin/local/enemy-territory or something
[10:37] <thoreauputic> zithowa: I was right about /etc/issue.net BTW - just tested it with ssh and it gives you a login message
[10:37] <mustard5> hi purpleidea
[10:37] <luke> couldnt find an uninstall script there though
[10:37] <purpleidea> mustard5: sorry, kind of hard to forget that name :P
[10:37] <mustard5> purpleidea, hehe
[10:38] <mustard5> luke, it might be as simple as deleting the folder its in.
[10:38] <thoreauputic> zithowa:  echo "Your message here" | sudo tee -a /etc/issue.net
[10:38] <luke> mustard5, find / -name et returns a lot of different files scattered around the system
[10:39] <mustard5> luke, hmm ok...I dont know then :)
[10:39] <ben32167> backports ar enot needed are they_
[10:39] <KenSentMe> Is the information that ubotu gives the same for #ubuntu and #ubuntu+1?
[10:39] <ben32167> dam keyboard!
[10:39] <wendigo> luke: sudo dpkg -r --purge enemy-territory ?
[10:39] <thoreauputic> Kennie: yes
[10:39] <luke> wendigo, i didnt install it with a package manager
[10:39] <thoreauputic> Kennie: ah, maybe not for packages
[10:40] <thoreauputic> KenSentMe: oops
[10:40] <intelikey> does anyone know a way to put a shell on a console without the package "login" being installed ?
[10:40] <mustard5> luke, another idea...I wonder if you can run the .bin file with some type of uninstall option
[10:40] <thoreauputic> Kennie: sorry lazy tab complete :)
[10:40] <mustard5> luke, you looked over the website?
[10:40] <KenSentMe> thoreauputic: is it possible to add info to ubotu?
[10:41] <thoreauputic> KenSentMe: sure
[10:41] <thoreauputic> !ubotu
[10:41] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
[10:41] <mustard5> luke, does it have any readme files in its main folder?
[10:41] <intelikey> i seem to have a shellless box....  i told init to do openvt sh  but it's blank.  blinking cursor that wont move.....
[10:42] <purpleidea> intelikey: rescue cd... or if you have an ssh server running?
[10:42] <ompaul> KenSentMe, what do you actually want to add?
[10:42] <aXeR|Work> hi guys, whats the default kernel frequency on the CD image download
[10:42] <intelikey> hmmm sshd might be able purpleidea ?
[10:43] <KenSentMe> ompaul: in the ubuntu+1 channel there are a lot of questions about installing cedega and that the package xlibs does not exist
[10:43] <_-life_is_life_H> hello everyone
[10:43] <wendigo> luke: you could just remove the /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/ directory
[10:43] <KenSentMe> ompaul: i've read a post on the forum about how to solve this
[10:43] <purpleidea> intelikey: not 100% sure about sshd, but i know i had problems with my display and i've sshd in and fixed them :D
[10:43] <luke> mustard5, wendigo, thanks guys - taking a look into ur advice atm
[10:43] <wendigo> luke: and ~/.etwolf
[10:43] <gnomefreak> i see they still havent fixed that
[10:43] <gnomefreak> :(
[10:43] <purpleidea> intelikey: but i think you could very easily boot from a rescue cd like sysrescuecd and install/fix what you need..
[10:43] <ompaul> KenSentMe, whats the url - if you want me to add it
[10:43] <_-life_is_life_H> i need some help about my breezy badger distro please
[10:44] <purpleidea> _-life_is_life_H: just ask
[10:44] <_-life_is_life_H> ok
[10:44] <purpleidea> !justask
[10:44] <ubotu> - Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[10:44] <_-life_is_life_H> in fact
[10:44] <wahjava> how do I add custom post installation stuff to my .deb file
[10:44] <wahjava> :-S
[10:44] <_-life_is_life_H> i like to use arabic keyboard in addition to the french one
[10:44] <ramvi> Heya. I'm trying to get wpa working in dapper. Reading the wiki. I had to add -dd 'cause it wouln't work. I'm getting: No suitable AP found.
[10:44] <_-life_is_life_H> and the problem is
[10:44] <intelikey> purpleidea this is not a display problem.    and yeah i can access it with a rescue disk.  but i'm looking for a way to get it to open a shell without login
[10:45] <ramvi> Though eesid ramvi is both in my wpa-file and listed with the wpa command with -dd
[10:45] <_-life_is_life_H> that when i have my keyboard in arabic, and i log out
[10:45] <tripppy> hi i just installed x11vnc for ubuntu... i followed the howto extactly but when i log in... it says password is incorrect..... howto reset?
[10:45] <wahjava> Added commands in configure section of postinst.ex
[10:45] <KenSentMe> ompaul: wait, i'll search for it
[10:45] <_-life_is_life_H> i could not log in again because the keyboard is still in arabic and i cannot enter my id and pass
[10:45] <decal> is it possible for me to partition a hd, install slackware on one partition, then mount the iso in slackware and install unbuntu from a terminal onto the second partition, then boot unbuntu from the second partition, and format the partition original partition with slackware on it and mount the partition as an extra folder ?
[10:45] <wahjava> but even after building packages postinst stuff is not executing
[10:45] <luke> wendigo, hmm i dont really like the idea of just deleting it hehe
[10:45] <purpleidea> intelikey: okay, sorry this isn't my paticular expertise, just figured i'd throw out a bit of info if it would help.
[10:46] <pitfall> why baning decal ?
[10:46] <intelikey> hmmm nope.  sshd is out. it requires passwd and adduser which are not going to be installed.
[10:46] <_-life_is_life_H> i suppose that this happens with all languages
[10:46] <purpleidea> _-life_is_life_H: does gdm boot?
[10:46] <viper12> that hurt my head just reading it. (decal's bit.)
[10:46] <gnomefreak> thats what i was just looking at
[10:46] <_-life_is_life_H> yes
[10:47] <purpleidea> _-life_is_life_H: there is a "languages" option that you can click on.. oh wait i don't know if that affects the keyboard too though. maybe try?
[10:47] <decal> damn
[10:47] <pitfall> =)
[10:47] <intelikey> decal yes.
[10:47] <decal> so did anyone have an answer for my questin
[10:47] <aXeR|Work> hi guys, whats the default kernel frequency on the CD image download
[10:47] <wendigo> luke: well, it's pretty safe. just do: rm -r /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/ && rm -r ~/.efwolf
[10:47] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: ubugtu seems a bit over-zealous :)
[10:48] <decal> intelikey, that would work ?
[10:48] <gnomefreak> lol i see ;)
[10:48] <pitfall> ho =)
[10:48] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: was that a flood ban or what?
[10:48] <wendigo> luke: rm -r ~/.etwolf   <--- correction
[10:48] <pitfall> slackware
[10:48] <pitfall> install slackware
[10:48] <intelikey> decal it is possable.  but the install of ub from the term is the part that you will need to be an expert for.
[10:48] <gnomefreak> if i see seveas before i have to leave ill ask him why
[10:48] <decal> i did...its a bitch
[10:48] <decal> why
[10:48] <wahjava> any channel for package building ??
[10:49] <purpleidea> does anyone know about why NetworkManager icon might dissapear (crash?) when hardware radio switch turned on, or modprobe/iwconfig ? or a way i can debug it ?
[10:49] <ompaul> decal, language can be left at the door
[10:49] <intelikey> decal the partitioning and repartitioning is a walk in the park.
[10:49] <wendigo> luke: as far as i know it doesn't come with an uninstall script, which is unfortunate
[10:49] <pitfall> anyone running a sony sz1 here ?
[10:49] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: Is your op-hood recent or did I miss something from being away? Congrats if so..
[10:49] <luke> wendigo, yeah =/
[10:49] <gnomefreak> ty thoreauputic  a week or so
[10:50] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: ah - welcome to the BOFH club *grin*
[10:50] <gnomefreak> lol ;) ty
[10:50] <ompaul> gnomefreak, its less than a week it just feels like a lifetime
[10:50] <ompaul> :)
[10:50] <gnomefreak> ;) ompaul
[10:51] <KenSentMe> ompaul: i found a solution here, in the reply from artificial_intelligence : http://transgaming.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5503
[10:52] <KenSentMe> ompaul: maybe i can add it to the wiki or something?
[10:52] <queenbee> pitfall: send me yours, I'll debug it and send it back to you ;)
[10:52] <gnomefreak> KenSentMe: last i heard on that you had to force install cedega and ofcourse i never suggest that
[10:52] <intelikey> <purpleidea..... or a way i can debug it ? <--- ltrace app-name in the terminal
[10:52] <pitfall> queenbee: you'll be disapointed
[10:52] <pitfall> queenbee: first, I got the cheaprer model
[10:52] <gnomefreak> KenSentMe: did you try xlibs-dev?
[10:52] <pitfall> second, the keyboard sucks a lot
[10:52] <KenSentMe> gnomefreak: the workaround is in fact that you remove the xlibs reference from the package
[10:53] <_-life_is_life_H> does anyone knows about the problem i described?
[10:53] <gnomefreak> see if that helps
[10:53] <queenbee> pitfall: oh dear... the keyboard is one of the most essential part...
[10:53] <KenSentMe> gnomefreak: didn't try it myself but read comments that it doesn't work
[10:53] <queenbee> pitfall: how does it suck? (if you can find words?)
[10:53] <mustard5> _-life_is_life_H, no..but its sounds frustrating
[10:53] <pitfall> queenbee: it is a nice laptop, but the greatest laptop with a bad keyboard juste sucks
[10:53] <aXeR|Work> hi guys, whats the default kernel frequency on the CD image download
[10:53] <gnomefreak> oh ok
[10:53] <queenbee> pitfall: sad, I'm actually saving up for one...
[10:53] <pitfall> queenbee: for a sz1 ?
[10:54] <queenbee> pitfall: yes
[10:54] <thoreauputic> aXeR|Work: kernel frequency ?
[10:54] <pitfall> queenbee: :/
[10:54] <intelikey> kernels have default frequencys ?
[10:54] <pitfall> queenbee: test it, test the keyboard a lot
[10:54] <cion> hey all anyone knows any good voip software that can be installed on ubuntu to talk to windows users?
[10:54] <aXeR|Work> thoreauputic: yes?
[10:54] <mustard5> _-life_is_life_H, have you tried doing a search on the ubuntu forums for someone who may have had a similar issue?
[10:54] <pitfall> queenbee: especially the spacebar key
[10:54] <cion> besides skype i mean
[10:54] <KenSentMe> cion: i use ekiga
[10:54] <thoreauputic> aXeR|Work: what do you mean?
[10:54] <pitfall> queenbee: your typing style can be ok with it
[10:54] <pitfall> mine isn't :/
[10:54] <cion> kensentme: how does it works?
[10:54] <zayd[a] na> Whats the best way to access my ubuntu desktop remotely? XDMCP, VNC, or something I havn't heard of?
[10:54] <aXeR|Work> thoreauputic: exactly that, what is the kernel frequency in the current version of ubuntu
[10:54] <olmo> ola que aces???
[10:55] <Ng> zayd[a] na: VNC - see the Remote Access entry in System->Preferences
[10:55] <thoreauputic> aXeR|Work: the question doesn't make sense
[10:55] <queenbee> pitfall: is it like some keys lack 'feedback' ? well, it's hard to caracterize keyboard feelings :p
[10:55] <KenSentMe> cion: works fine for me, only have a small problem with my voip provider xs4all (Dutch)
[10:55] <Ng> zayd[a] na: Remote Desktop rather
[10:55] <gnomefreak> olmo: /j #ubuntu-es please for spanish
[10:55] <thoreauputic> aXeR|Work: or do you mean version?
[10:55] <intelikey> zayd[a] na vnc  probably.  but best is subjective.
[10:55] <zayd[a] na> Ng - ta. Think you could recommend me a good windows VNC client?
[10:55] <aXeR|Work> thoreauputic: sure it does if you understand what it is
[10:55] <cion> KenSentMe: so what if i need to talk to windows user?
[10:55] <zayd[a] na> i'm accessing a PC on my LAN form my windows desktop
[10:56] <thoreauputic> aXeR|Work: please enlighten me then :)
[10:56] <intelikey> putty
[10:56] <Ng> zayd[a] na: any of them should work really. I'd go for tightvnc or the plain, official client
[10:56] <queenbee> pitfall: anyway, you're having any ubuntu trouble with it?
[10:56] <zayd[a] na> ah k, cool
[10:56] <KenSentMe> cion: why not use skype?
[10:56] <olmo> bueno quete cuentads ???? abla en espaol que no te entiendo
[10:56] <pitfall> queenbee: yes, on 50 space hit with my typing style, I got around 35 spaces in my vim
[10:56] <pitfall> queenbee: it is really annoying
[10:56] <cion> KenSentMe it's giving me hard times
[10:56] <KenSentMe> cion: works fine here, what is your problem?
[10:56] <pitfall> queenbee: take a look at this one http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/29/asus-w7v-4-2-pound-core-duo-laptop/
[10:56] <aXeR|Work> thoreauputic: google :P
[10:56] <queenbee> pitfall: well, I know exactly what you're talking about, and this is indeed unbearable.
[10:57] <ompaul> KenSentMe, I would not be uncomfortable with it - as a cegeda problem the solution is theirs to make - I'll read it again when I get some work out of the way, but I don't really want to see it in its current form on the wiki or bot - one of the many reasons are that the person suggests being root - not good - I have some work to do I'll be back
[10:57] <cion> KenSentMe: it doesn't make a second call, everytime i need to restart it and it takes forever to restart it
[10:57] <cion> KensentMe: wich is not good for me since i work with it
[10:57] <olmo> bueno que te cuemtas ?? o ablas en espayol o corto la conversacion
[10:57] <thoreauputic> aXeR|Work: if I was interested enough I already would have googled it :P
[10:57] <queenbee> pitfall: oh yeah...
[10:57] <ompaul> cion, so have a look at !seveas and get the thing called "dsp hijacker"
[10:57] <cion> olmo: aqui se habla solo ingles

[10:59] <KenSentMe> ompaul: i can't see where he suggest doing things as root. The only thing he does is sudo apt-get install
[10:59] <cion> Ok so beside skype there is no way for me to talk via VOIP with a windows user?
[10:59] <KenSentMe> ompaul: sorry, sudo dpkg -i

[11:01] <ubd> can I use rhytym box in xfce?
[11:01] <thoreauputic> cion: I know you could use gnome-meeting - ekiga is basically the same app

[11:01] <thoreauputic> ubd: yes
[11:02] <cion> thoreauputic: so if i use ekiga what software do windows user have to install?

[11:03] <cion> it's giving ppl way too much troubles
[11:03] <F0LL0W3R> !gcc
[11:03] <ubotu> I heard gcc is the GNU project C and C++ compiler.  From the command-line, type "man gcc" for a complete manual on gcc.  You can install gcc with 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'
[11:03] <Madpilot> cion, that's mostly up to Skype - it's a closed-source app, after all...
[11:03] <intelikey> !skype
[11:03] <ubotu> it has been said that skype is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeHowto/ Breezy deb: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages/
[11:03] <intelikey> hmm not that
[11:03] <cion> yeah sucks
[11:03] <thoreauputic> cion: what is the problem with skype? Skype is proprietary so it isn't fixable from our end

[11:09] <luopio> intelikey: thanks. I noticed that the initrd is gzipped there, but how can I update it? just gzipping my changed initrd from the cd filesystem won't work. Using it and the vmlinuz from the fs results in a kernel panic
[11:10] <intelikey> luopio you'll have to rebuild that one.
[11:10] <olmo> me puedes decir tu numero de telefono ????? porffa
[11:11] <thoreauputic> *sigh*
[11:11] <purpleidea> olmo: no!
[11:11] <luopio> intelikey: how? chrooting to the extracted cd?
[11:11] <thoreauputic> olmo: #ubuntu-es !!
[11:11] <purpleidea> thoreauputic: i don't think you're supposed to ask for people's #'s
[11:11] <purpleidea> :P
[11:12] <intelikey> luopio no not that hard. just mount the initrd and cp the files out then make the changes and make a cram image out of it.
[11:12] <leila> hi there, can anyone help me with gnokii installation w/ cable support for my nokia 6630 pls?
[11:12] <purpleidea> thoreauputic: imean not you, olmo.
[11:13] <luopio> intelikey: ok. haven't done any of those before, but now I'll learn. thanks for the help
[11:13] <intelikey> sure
[11:14] <purpleidea> anyone know anything about how to fix/debug/anything about networkmanager icon that dissapears when hardware radio switch goes on?
[11:14] <ompaul> KenSentMe, okay I had input from several streams on that one - the page is too much data there is now a factiod in place
[11:14] <zaydana> is there a way to get remote desktop to allow me to login remotely?
[11:15] <purpleidea> zaydana: yeah thats the idea. preferences-> remote desktop
[11:15] <purpleidea> click the checkboxes,and login with vnc
[11:15] <zaydana> purpleidea - all the checkboxes?
[11:15] <purpleidea> zaydana: pick the ones you want
[11:15] <zaydana> I can actually get the desktop's screen, but I can't get it unless I use the keyboard and screen to login with gdm
[11:16] <zaydana> then use VNC from after there
[11:16] <intelikey> purpleidea  if you can't do a trace on it check the logs.   ~.xsession-errors   /var/log/*
[11:16] <skon> hello, audio and video are out of sync in mplayer whilst playing dvd's - could anyone give me some pointers?
[11:16] <purpleidea> at least the "allow other users to view your desktop" but be careful
[11:16] <purpleidea> intelikey: okay i'll try that, ltrace wasn't useful :( to me anyways...
[11:17] <viper12> skon, seen that issue in mplayer sometimes if the dvd rom drive isn't set to dma=1.
[11:17] <viper12> can't type tonight. i meant dma being on.
[11:18] <skon> viper12: okay thanks, and i can set the dma to on ....?
[11:18] <nalioth> ubotu: tell skon about dma
[11:18] <leila> nokia on ubunt, anyone?

[11:18] <leila> *ubuntu

[11:19] <Gibson> are you a little cutie?
[11:19] <hinne> hey guys, i made a kernel update to 2.6.15-22-386. after that my ndiswrapper module didnt work. i compiled ndiswrapper again and made everything like i did on 2.6.15-21. but after modprobing ndiswrapper in /var/log/messages i get an error: couldn't read conf file 14E4:4318.5.conf for driver bcmwl5. any suggestions?
[11:20] <ThreeFinity> Anybody know where I might find a list of options for my ATI video card to use in xorg.conf to optimize performance?
[11:20] <nandemonai> Hiya people, just curious what happens when you update a package with an edited config.. is it overwritten with the new default or appended or some such?
[11:20] <signature16> when i try to access PHP My Admin i get this error:   The Configuratoin file now needs a secret passphrase (blowfish_secret).  how do i fix taht?
[11:20] <leila> Gibson, that's inappropriate, but yet.
[11:20] <leila> *yes
[11:21] <leila> and you're not helping me with nokia, either!! =@
[11:21] <nalioth> leila: gibson was requested to leave for being offtopic (and inappropriate) if you want to discuss 'cute' go to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[11:23] <leila> nalioth, =D lol
[11:24] <kevor> O_o
[11:26] <RayFredPip> hello! how to change PATH ?
[11:26] <Senilix> RayFredPip: export PATH=$PATH:/your/dir/here
[11:26] <RayFredPip> I have some bins ,and I want to add them into PATH,
[11:26] <Senilix> RayFredPip: more permanent, look in /etc/profile
[11:27] <RayFredPip> Senilix, so ubuntu has its profile in /etc/profile not in ~/.profile ,right ?
[11:28] <nalioth> RayFredPip: if you've not made a ~/.profile  your system default is in /etc/profile
[11:28] <RayFredPip> nalioth, ah~~I see
[11:29] <lars_> hi! has anybody here experience with wlan settings using breezy 5.10. my card keeps on changing channels even when assigned to a certain access point
[11:30] <RayFredPip> nalioth, by the way what does ~/.bash_profile do ?
[11:30] <nalioth> RayFredPip: it is read before ~/.bashrc
[11:32] <virtk0s> hey everybody... i've got an xorg.conf thing I can't seem to fix where the monitors seem to run independent framebuffers... i can't move windows from one screen to another
[11:32] <olmo_> eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee wue aces=???
[11:33] <vladuz976> is 1280x1024 an acceptable resolution to comfortably program with multiple windows open?
[11:33] <nalioth> vladuz976: whatever is comfortable for you
[11:33] <ubd> depends on your mon'tor
[11:33] <vladuz976> nalioth: what do you have?
[11:33] <RayFredPip> nalioth, how to delete one path given to PATH? is there any command?
[11:33] <ubd> its a bit small for 17 inch
[11:33] <vladuz976> ubd: 19"
[11:34] <nalioth> vladuz976: i have 1680x1050 x 2
[11:34] <ubd> then 1280 is ok for u
[11:34] <nalioth> RayFredPip: you'll need to edit the file with the PATH in it with a text editor (i don't know any other way, but someone else might)
[11:34] <vladuz976> nalioth: damn that's huge
[11:34] <virtk0s> so i'm guessing you have dual monitor xorg experience nalioth :)
[11:34] <RayFredPip> nalioth, hum
[11:35] <nalioth> vladuz976: and to think i waste it running cli
[11:35] <ubd> nalioth enjoys porn from 2 different angles
[11:35] <zayd[a] na> has anybody got any idea why accessing my pc over XDMCP, on a 100mbps LAN, would be literally 100x slower than just using the pc? Specially when VNC works at nearly the same speed...
[11:35] <morphix> hmm.. how i reset system time and GMT/UTC settings using shell?
[11:36] <intelikey> RayFredPip echo $PATH    then export PATH="the:part:of/your/origenal:path/you/want/to/keep"
[11:36] <Senilix> intelikey: export PATH=$PATH:/your/dir/here
[11:36] <intelikey> but that is not perminant.   you can add that to .bashrc  for one user   or /etc/profile  for the whole system
[11:37] <intelikey> Senilix no that wont do it.
[11:37] <nalioth> Senilix: RayFredPip wants to remove a part of his $PATH
[11:37] <Senilix> intelikey: you can add that to .profile
[11:37] <Senilix> ah.. remove.. ok :)
[11:37] <intelikey> Senilix that's not what he wants
[11:37] <Senilix> ok :)
[11:37] <intelikey> :)
[11:39] <RayFredPip> I dont know how to edit /etc/profile
[11:39] <intelikey> Senilix also you should quote that,  someone may have a path with spaces in it.
[11:39] <miles> Yo
[11:39] <nalioth> RayFredPip: sudo gedit /etc/profile
[11:39] <nalioth> RayFredPip: woops, gksudo gedit /etc/profile
[11:39] <RayFredPip> nalioth, I mean how to do in detail
[11:39] <Senilix> intelikey: true
[11:39] <miles> I'd need some quick help with the installation of PDF printers
[11:39] <nalioth> RayFredPip: when you get it open, look for "PATH"
[11:39] <ohzie> Hey...I can't play MP3's
[11:40] <intelikey> ohzie hey, why not ?
[11:40] <RayFredPip> because there are some shell syntax in that file
[11:40] <ohzie> I installed like...every rhythmbox plugin, and every noatun plugin, and neither of them can play MP3s
[11:40] <miles> Can someone with the Cups-PDF printer installed copy me the /etc/cups/printers.conf ?
[11:40] <ohzie> intelikey, I don't know. I was wondering myself. :(
[11:40] <intelikey> !vlc
[11:40] <ubotu> well, vlc is a video/audio player that supports almost everything - See http://www.videolan.org/ for more information (VLC is in the universe repository)
[11:40] <intelikey> !mp3
[11:40] <ubotu> hmm... mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:41] <RayFredPip> if [ "`id -u`" -eq 0 ] ; then
[11:41] <RayFredPip>   PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11"
[11:41] <RayFredPip> else
[11:41] <RayFredPip>   PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games"
[11:41] <ohzie> Thank you.
[11:41] <nalioth> RayFredPip: please don't paste in here
[11:41] <RayFredPip> where should I edit?
[11:41] <RayFredPip> sorry
[11:41] <Senilix> RayFredPip: the first one is for root
[11:41] <nalioth> RayFredPip: why do you want to remove paths, anyway?
[11:41] <intelikey> RayFredPip the first affects root the second applies to users
[11:42] <RayFredPip> I see,just add my path at the end ,right ?
[11:42] <nalioth> RayFredPip: how many users use your box?
[11:42] <intelikey> see now he's asking about adding.....
[11:42] <RayFredPip> nalioth, only myself
[11:42] <nalioth> RayFredPip: then put the $PATH in your ~/.bashrc
[11:43] <intelikey> but i chuck games out of my path.....
[11:44] <nalioth> RayFredPip: you should stay out of the system space if you can
[11:44] <skon> set dma to "on", better but dvd in mplayer still just slightly out of sync
[11:44] <skon> is there a fine tuning possibly?
[11:44] <nalioth> ubotu tell skon about mplayer
[11:44] <donvella> anybody know a way to make my bootup splashscreen free?
[11:44] <skon> thx
[11:45] <RayFredPip> nalioth, what do you mean the last words?
[11:45] <intelikey> "splashscreen free" ?  yeah add  splash=sielent
[11:45] <intelikey> silent
[11:45] <nalioth> RayFredPip: if you have no reason to edit files outside of your home directory, you should not edit them.
[11:46] <intelikey> donvella if you are talking about the gdm splash there is a menu system admin something for that
[11:46] <nalioth> RayFredPip: if you are the only user on your computer, you may change all your variables in your home directory
[11:47] <donvella> like ubuntu splash
[11:47] <donvella> the startup screen i just want text
[11:47] <donvella> and then the login i wudnt mind that text
[11:47] <freelzee> anybody here using freenet?... fancy handing me a ref?
[11:47] <donvella> or just so that doesnt pop up and say Ubuntu Dapper rah rah
[11:48] <RayFredPip> nalioth, Recently I've got some simulators ,and I want to add them to PATH so that I can use them conveniently.
[11:48] <intelikey> daz what i said donvella ^  answered bofth
[11:48] <nalioth> RayFredPip: so put them in your ~/.bashrc
[11:49] <RayFredPip> nalioth, you mean I should edit ~/.bashrc ?
[11:49] <nalioth> RayFredPip: yes, exactly
[11:50] <intelikey> RayFredPip better still add alias entries to your ~.bashrc     alias runblah='/path/to/executable/runthisblah -with args'
[11:50] <donvella> anyone know how to do that?
[11:51] <intelikey> donvella yes.   add splash=sielent to the kernel line    and then clickity click click click  on the menu and set gdm to greet you with text
[11:52] <intelikey> dang i did it again.   that's  silent     i'm all e's today
[11:52] <froud> where can I find release schule information
[11:52] <froud> s/schule/schedule
[11:52] <ss> hi, i have installed ndiswrapper, i've also installed the driver, but it says the hardware is not connected.. it's a wireless usb lan card and when i type in lsusb, it shows that its there, but has no description
[11:53] <RayFredPip> intelikey, good idea anyway though it is not easy for me
[11:54] <RayFredPip> intelikey, shall I learn shell praogramming ?
[11:55] <intelikey> RayFredPip open .bashrc with gedit and make the first entry then save (but keep it open)  and open a terminal.  test.   if not what you want exit and edit some more.....    the syntax i already gave you.      alias name='command'
[11:55] <intelikey> example     alias  ll='/bin/ls -lAh'
[11:56] <intelikey> then open the terminal and type ll
[11:56] <RayFredPip> intelikey, so I neednot to export my path ,right ?
[11:56] <intelikey> not if you use aliases
[11:56] <nalioth> RayFredPip: no, for permanence, you need to edit into your ~/.bashrc
[11:57] <morphix> would debian packages work on ubuntu properly?
[11:57] <RayFredPip> nalioth, ? for permance?
[11:57] <nalioth> morphix: they will corrupt your ubuntu  (no)
[11:57] <ohzie> If my laptop has volume up/down/mute buttons on it, how do I change what device those buttons effect? They work, for 'main' but I need them to change 'pcm' instead. :(
[11:57] <nalioth> RayFredPip: if you want to use your PATH more than once, it needs to be put into a configuration file.  "export" only lasts for the current session
[11:58] <morphix> damn
[11:58] <freelzee> anybody here using freenet?... fancy handing me a ref?
[11:58] <morphix> so i guess i gotta compile this crap then
[11:58] <RayFredPip> nalioth, I see
[11:58] <intelikey> RayFredPip yes what nalioth is saying you can test by just exporting your path in a terminal and testing or just typing alias blah=blah into term and test it... but it you want it to be there the next time you open a shell you will have to edit .bashrc
[11:58] <intelikey> and put it there.
[11:58] <nalioth> morphix: join me in #ubuntu-offtopic and i'll see if i can keep you from having to hand compile
[11:59] <intelikey> nalioth yes?  ^
[12:00] <nalioth> intelikey: yes
[12:00] <leonov> Hi folks, quick question: Is there any point downloading Kubuntu CDs vs just installing kubuntu-desktop on a fresh Ubuntu install?
[12:00] <RayFredPip> intelikey, I see,thanks
[12:00] <RayFredPip> nalioth, thanks
[12:00] <nalioth> leonov: the end result will be the same
[12:01] <leila> leonov, you'd have to get rid of *all* of ubuntu-desktop first, to make sure you don't get both installed and have a whole bunch of mess....
[12:01] <protocol1> i know i probably asked this like 100 times but how do you open up a tar.gz file?
[12:01] <leila> leonov, but apart from that, there is little difference....
[12:02] <leila> protocol1, tar zxvf file.tar.gz
[12:02] <intelikey> RayFredPip if you add to the path (even in .bashrc) you still have to use the export PATH=  syntax   cant leave out 'export'
[12:02] <protocol1> leila, thanks
[12:02] <leila> np
[12:02] <leila> ok, 1 more attempt - any help with nokia on breezy?
[12:02] <leonov> Thanks for the advice -- saves some bandwidth!
[12:03] <RayFredPip> intelikey, OK
[12:03] <nalioth> leonov: did i misunderstand your question? save bandwidth?
[12:07] <donvella> just wondering, where do i put the picture i want as my splash screen?
[12:07] <donvella> for gnome
[12:07] <intelikey> donvella didn't you just ask how to get it to display only text ?????
[12:07] <donvella> yeh :D
[12:07] <donvella> worked sweet thanks
[12:07] <intelikey> ;/
[12:08] <donvella> but now it does the text at the start now it goes into a GUI login screen, i want to modify that screen and background and the ubuntu splash turn it into a diff picture
[12:09] <protocol1> how do I execute a file.sh file from the console?
[12:09] <donvella> so anyone wanna help me :P
[12:09] <donvella> i want to edit my login screen
[12:10] <donvella> or find some sick themes somewhere
[12:10] <bigmoe> i have a question how to mount in samba
[12:10] <farous> protocol1: just go to the dire and type ./filename
[12:10] <intelikey> donvella find /usr -name '*human*' -type f   ought to find where the gdm pictures are.
[12:10] <veriz> have someone installed JBoss into Ubuntu? Please could you give me some links for howtos and such stuff :(
[12:10] <intelikey> protocol1 sh file
[12:10] <donvella> sorry brus way over my head
[12:11] <intelikey> find /usr -name '*human*' -type f   <--- just drop that in a terminal
[12:11] <bigmoe> i have smbclient but i cannot mount anything to share it in the networ
[12:12] <bigmoe> it is smbmount or smbfs
[12:12] <intelikey> smbfs i think.  if nalioth was around he could tell ya
[12:13] <bigmoe> i have to smbclient package but smbfs in not included
[12:13] <donvella> i see stuff i dont no what its for tho
[12:13] <nalioth> intelikey: i don't own windows machines and have not owned any since the year 2000. I'm very much not any good at samba
[12:13] <nalioth> ubotu: tell bigmoe about samba
[12:14] <intelikey> see you told him
[12:14] <intelikey> :)
[12:14] <intelikey> i'm network illiterate.... so ...
[12:15] <intelikey> donvella look for the human.png  probably.  and note the path
[12:16] <skpl> can someone help me? everytime i install ubuntu previous installations show up in my grub boot loader and i do not want them to
[12:16] <rausku> why can't i unpack rar packages
[12:16] <donvella> well im on gnome-look.org and i want to install a GDM theme, and i dont no how to do it
[12:16] <nalioth> rausku: install 'unrar-nonfree'
[12:16] <skpl> they show up even though i have deleted the partitionms using the partitioner
[12:16] <donvella> its a tar.gz
[12:16] <nalioth> ubotu: tell donvella about themes
[12:16] <apokryphos> skpl: edit your grub configuration file and remove the dead entries, then.
[12:16] <skpl> apokryphos: why do they exist at all?
[12:17] <nalioth> skpl: listen to apokryphos
[12:17] <intelikey> donvella you asked "where picture splash screen..."  something      i was just trying to answer your question.  not anticipate your true desires...
[12:17] <apokryphos> skpl: grub often takes the safer option of leaving entries there rather than deleting them a lot of the time
[12:17] <Bizzy> hey
[12:17] <Bizzy> my ubuntu laptop wont see my ipid
[12:17] <miranda83> hello guys
[12:17] <Bizzy> ipod even
[12:17] <skpl> apokryphos: unfortunately the entries are not 'dead' they are actual functioning installations
[12:18] <Bizzy> do i need anything special, or do i need to mount it in some way?
[12:18] <miranda83> anyone here can help a lazy girl?
[12:18] <nalioth> skpl: i thought you said you removed the partitions?
[12:18] <apokryphos> skpl: then they're just different kernels, unless they're totally different installations
[12:18] <nalioth> miranda83: we help anyone with a question
[12:18] <skpl> apokryphos: oh ok
[12:18] <skpl> i thought maybe they were leftover from previous installations
[12:18] <miranda83> ok nalioth here i go, i need to put a file in a ftp server, is there a single command including file, user and passwd to do it?
[12:19] <nalioth> miranda83: the  answer is 'yes', but i'm not that advanced to tell you the command
[12:19] <miranda83> nalioth, but it is possible, right?
[12:19] <nalioth> miranda83: yes, it's quite possible
[12:20] <onkarshinde> miranda83: If you are in GUI, then you can use nautilus to do all your ftp transfers. Go to Places->Connect to server
[12:20] <alf> hi
[12:20] <miranda83> onkarshinde, i need a terminal command, cuz i'm doing a little script
[12:20] <onkarshinde> miranda83: No idea.

[12:21] <daveCB> When will the next ubuntu version be available?
[12:21] <alf> do you think it's dangerous to install a kernel from dapper on breezy ?

[12:22] <nalioth> daveCB: you mean the one after june 1 ?
[12:22] <alf> and I don't want to upgrade to dapper now
[12:22] <onkarshinde> Bizzy: It depends on your iPod type. Please tell us iPod type and what all you want to do with it.

[12:24] <Bizzy> i want ubuntu to actualy see that it exists
[12:24] <alf> may I compile the kernel-source package of dapper ?
[12:24] <onkarshinde> Bizzy: You don't need anything special for that. Just connect it. Will be shown as extra drive in Computer section. Also rhythmbox will be able to play songs from it.
[12:24] <intelikey> sure
[12:24] <alf> or I need to download the one from kernel.org
[12:24] <alf> ?

[12:28] <krxjot001> hi
[12:28] <nalioth> if you upgrade the kernel, you essentially will have dapper, as many things will break if you just upgrade the kernel
[12:28] <alf> onkarshinde: but why take the source from kernel.org ?
[12:28] <ubd> !ubotu tell _jason about fuck
[12:28] <alf> there's only a few dependencies for kernel ... I was hoping
[12:29] <onkarshinde> alf: Because the source form Ubuntu repo will be tweaked for Dapper environment. It may not compile on Breezy.
[12:29] <alf> :-(

[12:31] <Ummmmm> Hi. Filesystem mounting question. I have a second hard drive, vfat filesys, it doesn't want to mount at boot time and I need to use Disk Manager to remount it each boot. I think the problem is my mount point - /mnt/media is a directory owned by root with attribs rwxr-xr-x .... is this right? fstab looks right to me
[12:31] <Ummmmm> when I mount the drive using Disk Manager, the partition is read only :(
[12:32] <nalioth> ubotu: tell Ummmmm about fstab
[12:32] <Agent_bob> well   "linux is a program" according to shelly the republican.      it sure seems like more that a program to me.
[12:32] <avalost> Ummmmm: afaik you should not be able to write to a fat partition
[12:32] <Mi1> morning all
[12:32] <avalost> it tends to break things
[12:32] <_jason> Ummmmm: those permissions should be fine
[12:32] <yaiba> bonjour a tous

[12:33] <Agent_bob> avalost vfat is very writable

[12:34] <alf> thx onkarshinde and nalioth, and say me good luck =)
[12:34] <Dribbel> Hi
[12:35] <Ummmmm> mount tells me "/dev/hdd1 on /mnt/media type vfat (rw)
[12:35] <Ummmmm> " (except it is actually readonly for my user!) (this is after i've mounted the disk using disk manager)
[12:35] <Agent_bob> no it's not readonly
[12:35] <Agent_bob>  /dev/hdd1 on /mnt/media type vfat (rw)
[12:36] <Ummmmm> it says (rw) however I am unable to change any file, or create new files ...
[12:36] <Ummmmm> it's a bit weird....
[12:36] <iNiku> Ummmmm: yes, by default everything is owned and writable only by root
[12:36] <Dribbel> I Have a strange eth problem. I installed Dappe yesterday, but the networking is strange.
[12:36] <Dribbel> I'm able to ping/ssh/dns/samba but i'm not getting any http/ftp traffic though
[12:36] <Dribbel> what could be wrong
[12:36] <Ummmmm> outgoing, dribbel?
[12:36] <iNiku> Ummmmm: you can add uid=<your numeric uid> to the fstab options if you want the files to be owned by yourself instead
[12:36] <zaydana> has anybody got any idea why accessing my pc over XDMCP, on a 100mbps LAN, would be literally 100x slower than just using the pc? Specially when VNC works at nearly the same speed...
[12:36] <Dribbel> out and in
[12:36] <iNiku> or gid=<some gid>,umask=007 if you want some group to be able to write
[12:37] <Agent_bob> ok you need to add this to the line in /etc/fstab   that lists  " /dev/hdd1 /mnt/media vfat defaults,users,user,umask=0 0 0 "
[12:37] <nalioth> Dribbel: perhaps asking in #ubuntu+1 (where dapper support is discussed)
[12:37] <Ummmmm> my fstab entry is /dev/hdb1       /mnt/media      vfat    uid=1000,gid=1000   0       0
[12:37] <Agent_bob> umask     Ummmmm
[12:37] <Dribbel> nalioth: ok, ill try there
[12:37] <Agent_bob> uid and gid mean nothing to vfat
[12:37] <Agent_bob> it doesn't have permissions
[12:37] <Agent_bob> only attributes
[12:37] <Ummmmm> yep
[12:37] <iNiku> Agent_bob: not true, they make all files appeaar as if they were owned by the uid/gid
[12:38] <iNiku> Agent_bob: without those options, they are all owned by root
[12:38] <zathras_laptop> anyone know what disk error 80 means when a live cd fails?
[12:38] <Ummmmm> you're both correct. Individual files don't explicitly have ownership
[12:38] <Agent_bob> iNiku it doesn't matter who owns the.   man mount.
[12:38] <iNiku> but yeah, you can use umask=0 instead. then the files will still be owned by root but anyone can write to them
[12:38] <Ummmmm> umask=0 eh? cool, will give that a go!
[12:38] <Agent_bob> Ummmmm add umask.
[12:38] <Ummmmm> thanks all :D
[12:39] <iNiku> Agent_bob: I suggest you man mount yourself
[12:39] <iNiku> what I'm saying is correct.
[12:40] <iNiku> Agent_bob: when you mount a vfat filesystem, everything will be owned by root by default (because, as you said, vfat has no concept of ownership)
[12:40] <tripppy> hi i just installed x11vnc for ubuntu... i followed the howto extactly but when i log in... it says password is incorrect..... howto reset?
[12:40] <iNiku> with the uid/gid mount options you can change the user/group the files appear to be owned by
[12:41] <iNiku> Agent_bob: that way you can make them writable only by yourself or by a certain group, instead of everybody, like umask=0 will do
[12:42] <Agent_bob> iNiku you can change the default owner   yes.  but the permission is  777  so owner is moot
[12:42] <iNiku> Agent_bob: the permissions are only 777 if you use the umask=0 option
[12:42] <Agent_bob> that's where umask comes in
[12:42] <iNiku> and that might be a bad idea if you have "untrusted" users on your system
[12:42] <RayFredPip> how to copy several files into a dir at one time by cp command ?
[12:42] <_jason> RayFredPip: cp -R
[12:42] <iNiku> the default umask for vfat mounts is _not_ 0 IIRC
[12:43] <_jason> RayFredPip: or cp file1 file2 dir, depending on what you are asking
[12:43] <RayFredPip> _jason,I think I need your second suggestion
[12:44] <_jason> RayFredPip: the first one is if you are copying a directery and want cp to recurse into the directory to copy everything
[12:44] <valehru> is there a reason why I cannot see azureus in the synaptic package manager?
[12:44] <nalioth> valehru: because it's not there?
[12:44] <_jason> valehru: azureus is not in the breezy repositories, the bot will send you a guide
[12:44] <nalioth> ubotu: tell valehru about azureus
[12:44] <valehru> possibly
[12:44] <valehru> aggg
[12:44] <valehru> ahh
[12:44] <RayFredPip> _jason, yes
[12:45] <valehru> !azureus
[12:45] <ubotu> it has been said that azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[12:45] <Agent_bob>  The default is the umask of the current process.
[12:45] <valehru> thx
[12:45] <iNiku> Agent_bob: which usually (hopefully!) is not 0
[12:45] <nalioth> valehru: the bot just sent you the info in a private message
[12:47] <iNiku> Ummmmm: please realize if you use umask=0, any user on your system will be able to write to the vfat filesystem. that might or might not be what you want.
[12:47] <timeless> please excuse my ignorance, is there a gui tool to configure how the os deals with sigsegv, specifically automatically storing cores in specific per user directories or similar?
[12:47] <nalioth> iNiku: it doesnt matter, vfat and ntfs pay no attention to unix permissions
[12:47] <Agent_bob> it's normally init that mounts partitions also iNiku
[12:47] <valehru> hmm...I run the following as stated in the wiki : sudo apt-get install j2re1.4 libcommons-cli-java liblog4j1.2-java libseda-java libswt-gtk-3.1-java
[12:47] <iNiku> Agent_bob: yes, and init usually does not run with umask 0
[12:47] <cafe> DJ mixer software for linux
[12:47] <valehru> but I get the following error: E: Package j2re1.4 has no installation candidate
[12:48] <iNiku> nalioth: you're confusing things
[12:48] <valehru> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[12:48] <valehru> is only available from another source
[12:48] <cafe> DJ mixer software for linux
[12:48] <nalioth> ubotu: tell valehru about java
[12:48] <nalioth> valehru: please don't paste in here (see the /topic for more useful info)
[12:48] <Agent_bob> nalioth i leave him with you.
[12:48] <_jason> valehru: you need multiverse (as ubotu's page explains)
[12:48] <Agent_bob> :)
[12:48] <bob_> bonjour tous le monde
[12:48] <nalioth> Agent_bob: leave who with me?
[12:49] <bob_> where
[12:49] <iNiku> nalioth: the filesystems don't but for that exact reason you have the option of applying uid, gid and permissions globally to the whole mount point when you mount such a filesystem

[12:49] <zaydana> anybody got any idea why starting applications (including logging in) via XDMCP would take about 100 times longer than using the actual machine, while VNC would be about the same speed as using the actual machine?

[12:51] <kirk> hey
[12:51] <Agent_bob> iNiku i have read, but more than that i have tested.  you are wrong.  setting uid and gid does not give the user permission.

[12:52] <iNiku> Agent_bob: try it
[12:52] <Agent_bob> tty2 [root#~]  ls -l /home/greg/Documents/
[12:52] <Agent_bob> total 321
[12:52] <Agent_bob> -rw-------  1 greg greg   1953 Sep  6  2005 access~1.con

[12:53] <Agent_bob>  /bin/ls: Documents/xf86co~1: Permission denied
[12:53] <iNiku> then only you will have access to that mount point and everything under it
[12:53] <Agent_bob> that is most usrely true.
[12:53] <gimmulf_> Hi, when i came back from screensaver my mouse stopped working and i dont want to restart X, what should i do?
[12:53] <Agent_bob> that is an vfat disk   mount /dev/fd1 /home/greg/Documents -o uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=177
[12:53] <bigmoe> ubotu: tell bigmoe about firewall
[12:54] <iNiku>  /dev/fd1? is that a write protected floppy or what?
[12:55] <arrick1> Agent_bob, how about sudo chmod -R +w /dev/fd1  ??
[12:55] <iNiku> arrick1: no, that will only change permissions for the device node
[12:55] <iNiku> which makes no difference unless you want to write to the raw device
[12:56] <iNiku> Agent_bob: /dev/hde3 on /win2 type vfat (rw,gid=200,umask=007,quiet)
[12:56] <iNiku> a user in group 200 can write to /win2
[12:56] <iNiku> it has worked like that for the past several years
[12:56] <iNiku> and it still does
[12:56] <arrick1> in ubuntu? that syntax is very wrong
[12:57] <Agent_bob> you saw what i posted.  i pasted it streight from console.
[12:57] <iNiku> Agent_bob: you're using a floppy? are you sure the write protect tab is not on?
[12:57] <sexcopter8000m> hi. i downloaded some pics of my camera and got one character wrong in the names. is there a one-liner to change a w to an r in all the filenames?
[12:57] <iNiku> arrick1: what syntax?
[12:58] <Agent_bob> iNiku write protect doesn't apply to   LS
[12:58] <iNiku> LS?
[12:58] <Agent_bob> it is   ls that failed.
[12:58] <_jason> sexcopter8000m: are the files all in the same directory?
[12:58] <sexcopter8000m> _jason, yep, and the w only occurs the once in each filename
[12:58] <arrick1> sudo mount -t vfat /dev/fd1 /win2 (rw, gid=200, umask=007, quiet)
[12:58] <_jason> sexcopter8000m: rename -n 'y/w/r/' *  , that will show you what happens.  If it works, get rid of the -n for it to actually do it
[12:59] <sexcopter8000m> _jason, awesome, thanks
[12:59] <iNiku> arrick1: it wasn't a command, it was a paste from the mount output showing the mount options for the filesystem
[12:59] <arrick1> oh
[12:59] <arrick1> ew
[12:59] <iNiku> Agent_bob: sorry, I misread your paste. do a mount and show the line for /dev/fd1
[12:59] <timeless> :(, can i control how/where the os sticks core dumps in ubuntu? (beyond ulimit -c unlimited)
[01:00] <Agent_bob>  /dev/fd1 on /usr/local/doc type vfat (rw,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=177)
[01:00] <iNiku> arrick1: the command line would be mount -t vfat /dev/hde3 /win2 -o rw,gid=200,umask=007,quiet
[01:00] <Agent_bob> i showed you the command that i issued to mount it
[01:00] <sexcopter8000m> _jason, worked a treat, thanks!

[01:05] <zelevw> timeless: Trying 1.0.0.0... then it stays there...I tried that before...
[01:05] <timeless> 1.0.0.0 ?
[01:05] <timeless> is that the address you want?
[01:05] <timeless> offhand it sounds like dns is unhappy
[01:06] <zelevw> timeless: i used irc.debian.org 6667
[01:06] <zelevw> timeless: but 1.0.0.0 shows up...???
[01:06] <zelevw> timeless: i can dig, nslookup, ftp no problem
[01:06] <iNiku> zelevw: someone else had problems with addresses resolving to 1.0.0.0, too... apparently the nameserver on their router was acting up
[01:06] <timeless> try
[01:06] <timeless> telnet 213.92.8.4 6667
[01:07] <zelevw> ok
[01:07] <iNiku> zelevw: you could try disbling ipv6
[01:07] <Agent_bob> iNiku if you are to slow to catch on to the fact that i showed you the ls from root and it says that greg owns the mount but greg cant ls the mount i don't see how showing the user's uid will help you see that it is the same......   i told you all the info was already posted.   now leave me alone.

[01:07] <iNiku> Agent_bob: fine, whatever. as I said, it works for me and has worked for me for years.
[01:08] <_jason> weekang: hi, are you using the default version of firefox in ubuntu breezy?
[01:08] <zelevw> iniku: i think i did that
[01:08] <iNiku> so you're definitely incorrect in stating that it does not work.
[01:08] <weekang> yes
[01:08] <weekang> _jason
[01:08] <weekang> i'm just using the provided firefox
[01:08] <timeless> zelevw: did you get a connection?

[01:10] <iNiku> zelevw: that might not solve your problem... but then again, it might
[01:10] <iNiku> zelevw: out of curiosity, are you using some kind of a nat router to connect to the internet?
[01:10] <zelevw> iniku: ill give it a shot...
[01:10] <zelevw> iniku: yes...its a conceptronic adsl router
[01:11] <iNiku> zelevw: what does /etc/resolv.conf show as your nameserver addresses?
[01:11] <glimp> _jason: BTW what you mean by /mount/point? i can't get it,
[01:11] <timeless> zelevw: i don't suppose windows is using pppoe?
[01:11] <zelevw> iniku: nameserver 213.92.8.4
[01:12] <_jason> glimp: you have to create a directory to mount it to.  For example you could first do 'sudo mkdir /mnt/myiso'  then use /mnt/myiso as the mount point
[01:12] <iNiku> zelevw: is that the address of your router?
[01:12] <zelevw> timeless: its vmware session workstation 5
[01:12] <glimp> ah okay thanks
[01:12] <zelevw> iniku: no
[01:12] <iNiku> zelevw: okay. well, disabling ipv6 is still worth a shot
[01:12] <timeless> zelevw: this would be a question for the windows network neighborhood/configuration or something
[01:13] <timeless> if your windows box vm is using pppoe and your linux host isn't, that'd probably explain it
[01:13] <zelevw> timeless: the xp session works fine...my ubuntu doesnt
[01:13] <timeless> yes yes, i understand that
[01:13] <timeless> _jason: any ideas?
[01:13] <zelevw> timeless: vmware is being natted
[01:13] <zelevw> im gonna reboot...i just added an entry to bad_list as per the wiki
[01:13] <zelevw> brb
[01:14] <zelevw> thx for the help...brb
[01:15] <_jason> timeless: not really
[01:16] <sven__> hallo
[01:16] <timeless> _jason, oh well, how about a 'simpler' question, if i want to twiddle /proc/sys/kernel/* permanently (so that it affects the computer after a reboot), do i just change the files, or is there some ubuntu gui, or do i just add a init.d script or...?
[01:17] <m_0_r_0_n> How can I change the default media player for firefox? It always starts totem by default, but totem is not able to do anything. I ve installed the mplayer-plugin but dont know how to change the setting. Any idea?
[01:17] <_jason> timeless: not sure what the proper way to do that would be either, sorry
[01:18] <_jason> ubotu: tell m_0_r_0_n about replacetotem
[01:18] <timeless> _jason: how about some other channel where i should ask these questions? i hate bothering people :(
[01:19] <_jason> timeless: here is the right place, but you may just have to try at a different time.  The mailing list might get your questions exposed to more people lists.ubuntu.com
[01:19] <timeless> thanks
[01:19] <iNiku> timeless: you'll need to do that in an init script
[01:20] <bigmoe> i have a linux server with 3 netcards one to the internet one to wireless access point and one to a cross over cable
[01:20] <timeless> iniku: ok, thanks
[01:20] <iNiku> timeless: I'd suggeest /etc/rc.local, unless there's some other init script already dealing with the proc files you need
[01:20] <iNiku> what are you trying to do?
[01:20] <bigmoe> the problem is that i cant share the cross over files with the wireless one
[01:20] <bigmoe> can some one help me??
[01:21] <timeless> well, i just had ff crash (well it disappeared) on me, and i'd like to have /tmp/app-name.core.pid or something for cores
[01:21] <m_0_r_0_n> _jason, thanks, it works
[01:21] <timeless> so that i can later go back and find out why the app died
[01:21] <m_0_r_0_n> !mplayer
[01:21] <ubotu> from memory, mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[01:21] <timeless> for all i know ff didn't actually crash, but i can't find any log that would tell me
[01:21] <timeless> and since i do dev work, i'd rather be able to specify that location for cores
[01:21] <conhe> who have ebook to network,apache+php in ubuntu ?
[01:22] <timeless> i found /proc/sys/kernel/core_uses_pid and core_pattern
[01:22] <iNiku> timeless: okay, so do those do what you want?
[01:22] <timeless> so i can control at least the name and pid bits and i'll have to see whether pattern allows path controls
[01:22] <timeless> iniku: not sure :)
[01:22] <iNiku> timeless: one way to find out, I guess :)
[01:23] <timeless> crashing certainly isn't too hard, although i'll probably use kill -11 or something
[01:23] <ramvi> How do I turn off the copy on selection in anjuta?
[01:25] <zelevw> hey guys, gdesklets now updates
[01:26] <zelevw> if i telnet to irc.freenode.net 6667 it looks for 1.0.0.0, but if I telnet to its ip address it works...???
[01:26] <zelevw> i did follow the wiki for ipv6
[01:26] <iNiku> zelevw: sounds like your name server is doing something weird
[01:26] <zelevw> ive tried a number of them
[01:27] <timeless> http://aplawrence.com/Linux/limit_core_files.html is helpful
[01:27] <zathras_laptop> dns seems broken for you
[01:27] <zelevw> but its just in ubuntu...not in vmware...
[01:27] <morphix> is there anyway to install phpmyadmin WITHOUT apache?
[01:27] <zelevw> zathras_laptop: youre rite...but it looks like a partial break...everything else works...
[01:27] <iNiku> zelevw: is your windows in vmware using the same nameserver that you have in /etc/resolv.conf now?
[01:28] <zelevw> iniku: yes
[01:29] <iNiku> zelevw: hmm. try dig irc.freenode.net
[01:29] <iNiku> and pastebin it
[01:30] <conhe> need book to apache+php !
[01:30] <zelevw> iniku: where can i pastebin it?
[01:30] <iNiku> !pastebin
[01:30] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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
[01:30] <conhe> !apache
[01:30] <ubotu> hmm... apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[01:31] <hackeron> hey, I'm trying to configer my printer from the web interface (127.0.0.1:631) and I get asked for password, what is the username/password?
[01:32] <zelevw> iniku: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13612
[01:32] <morphix> is there anyway to install phpmyadmin WITHOUT apache? i wish to use lighttpd instead of stupid apache
[01:33] <glimp> _jason: i got this error mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[01:33] <glimp>        missing codepage
[01:33] <iNiku> zelevw: that came from 192.168.1.1, I thought you said you had something else in /etc/resolv.conf?
[01:33] <iNiku> zelevw: pastebin your resolv.conf, too
[01:33] <zelevw> i #ed
[01:33] <zelevw> ok
[01:33] <_jason> glimp: can you paste the line you used?
[01:33] <timeless> iniku: ok, i now have something that seems to work, although i don't really feel like changing run levels to prove it
[01:33] <glimp> sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop file.bin /mnt/myiso
[01:34] <timeless> last question, can i change the default ulimit -c somewhere?
[01:34] <zelevw> iniku: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13613
[01:34] <fdsf> can anibody help me?
[01:34] <_jason> glimp: sudo modprobe loop, then try again maybe
[01:34] <timeless> i.e. if i do ulimit -c unlimited in rc.local will that affect all users?
[01:35] <fdsf> i have ubuntu and i cant connect to the internet with it
[01:35] <iNiku> timeless: actually I'm not quite sure. but take a look at /etc/sysctl.conf, I think that would be the right place to do the core thing
[01:35] <glimp> i'll add the modprobe before the loop?
[01:35] <iNiku> and possibly the ulimit too
[01:35] <m_0_r_0_n> How is it possilbe to start an wmv file by double click? I always get the warning that this could be a dangerous file, that wont be opened.
[01:35] <_jason> glimp: nah, just run that command before your mount one
[01:35] <iNiku> zelevw: 192.168.1.1 is your router, right?
[01:36] <iNiku> zelevw: dig chat.freenode.net
[01:36] <zelevw> iniku: shit...youre rite...im gonna change it to my laptop
[01:36] <iNiku> your laptop?
[01:36] <iNiku> your laptop has a nameserver?
[01:36] <fdsf> someone can help me pls?!
[01:36] <zelevw> iniku: yes...also poptop, squid
[01:37] <iNiku> you should probably use your isp's nameservers
[01:37] <fdsf> how can i change my ethernet card from 100 mbits into 10 mbits?
[01:37] <iNiku> which is what your router is most likely doing
[01:37] <glimp> i still got the same error jason
[01:37] <_jason> glimp: oh, what does 'file file.bin' say?
[01:38] <zelevw> iniku: i changed it to my laptop and now it WORKS! thanks very much for the help
[01:38] <iNiku> zelevw: um. but nothing changed?
[01:38] <glimp> nothing the same error the file bin is a movie file though i can view it with VLC but the audio is not good so i want to try to mount it
[01:38] <timeless> iniku: indeed, sysctl.conf does look better
[01:38] <timeless> well, kinda
[01:38] <zelevw> iniku: i added ipv6 to bad_list
[01:38] <zelevw> iniku: that had to be it.
[01:39] <timeless> my rc.local script creates a directory too
[01:39] <timeless> and i'm not sure under what conditions the directory (in /tmp) will disappear
[01:39] <iNiku> zelevw: okay, so after that you were using the router's nameserver?
[01:39] <zelevw> iniku: yes
[01:39] <zelevw> iniku: i changed back to mine...its just cache
[01:39] <_jason> glimp: what did the file command say?  did it say it was an ISO 9660 file?
[01:39] <iNiku> zelevw: okay. well, I suppose the router's nameserver kind of *should* work, too
[01:40] <iNiku> but, oh well
[01:40] <fdsf> bagavas pula nu ma bagati in seama a?
[01:40] <zelevw> iniku: it should...dont know why not...it was fine until i upgraded its firmware...then this began to happen...it updates it to ADSL2...ill now can reach 20mb
[01:41] <glimp> it did not say its iso 9660, it says wrong FS type, bad option, bad superblock  on /dev/loop0
[01:41] <_jason> glimp: file file.bin  <-- try that command and let me know what it returns
[01:41] <glimp> okay wait
[01:41] <iNiku> zelevw: the quality of the firmware on cheapo home routers usually leaves something to be desired...
[01:42] <zelevw> iniku: yes...but this one is better than Telefonicas...theirs really suck
[01:42] <iNiku> so maybe the update just broke the nameserver. but it's strange in any case
[01:42] <glimp> its says data
[01:42] <zelevw> iniku: agreed
[01:46] <lazzareth> Gday

[01:59] <morphix> so does ANYONE know how i can install phpmyadmin WITHOUT apache installed??
[02:01] <m_0_r_0_n> Which tool do I use to show the  file system of a media system like an usbflashdisc? I would like to know if it is preprared for windows of linux
[02:01] <m_0_r_0_n> or
[02:02] <zcat[1] > fdisk -l /dev/wherever
[02:02] <zcat[1] > same as any filesystem or disk device
[02:02] <zcat[1] > it will almost surely be FAT ..
[02:03] <m_0_r_0_n> I dont get an output by fdisk -l /media/usbdisk
[02:05] <morphix> so does ANYONE know how i can install phpmyadmin WITHOUT apache installed??!!!!!!!!! i've been asking for over 30 mins.
[02:05] <zcat[1] > /media/usbdisk is the mountpoint. try /dev/sda1
[02:05] <nalioth> ubotu: tell morphix about patience
[02:05] <morphix> blorgh
[02:05] <zcat[1] > morphix: your question makes no sense. you can't install a web-based admin tool without a webserver
[02:06] <lazzareth> quick question: is can ubuntu support 32 bit? like windows
[02:06] <morphix> i use lighttpd
[02:06] <lazzareth> im looking through xorg.conf
[02:06] <morphix> lighttpd > apache
[02:06] <morphix> so my question DOES make sense
[02:07] <nalioth> lazzareth: ubuntu supports both 32 and 64 bit systems
[02:07] <zcat[1] > ok.. might be easiest to download the php directly and put it wherever lighthttpd puts it's web content..
[02:07] <morphix> well i dont know how else i can get phpmyadmin onto the system
[02:07] <lazzareth> i mean
[02:08] <zcat[1] > I would have expected the ubuntu package to depend on 'a webserver' rather than any specific web server.

[02:08] <lazzareth> Why is there no 32bit?
[02:08] <morphix> well when i try to install it via apt.. it wants to install stupid apache aswell
[02:08] <nalioth> lazzareth: you are asking an xorg question.  24 bit is the highest it goes
[02:09] <zcat[1] > it's only a bunch of php scripts.. I would expect you can download it from somewhere, probably sourceforget..
[02:09] <lazzareth> thanks nalioth
[02:09] <lazzareth> "you are asking an xorg question" am i in the wrong chanel ?

[02:15] <ferronica> but one thing saw my NICOTINE works very good
[02:15] <chri[s] > that's not the problem hajuu, the problem is the harddrive i oringally installed cant be accessed
[02:15] <occy> is there a way I can control what processes are running on the system... errr what daemons are running?  I'd like to have mysql and apache not running locally.  Is there a gui to do that?

[02:16] <occy> hajuu: yeah, I'd like to do it "The Ubuntu Way"[tm] 
[02:16] <hajuu> ...
[02:16] <occy> hajuu: I'm sure there is some cleaner way than editing files manaually in /etc/init.d
[02:16] <hajuu> Oh
[02:16] <hajuu> no that was directed at chri[s] 
[02:17] <hajuu> thus the chri[s] : before it.
[02:17] <occy> hajuu: hehe, oh ok
[02:17] <occy> hajuu: ;)
[02:17] <occy> hajuu: I guess my question might be similar to his
[02:17] <hajuu> dont believe theres a particularly "ubuntu" way to do it...
[02:17] <hajuu> you will need to use ps aux and kill or killall
[02:17] <occy> hajuu: surely there is a "debian" tool or something to have processes start or stop at boot
[02:17] <hajuu> thats pretty dang clean
[02:17] <hajuu> not that im aware of.
[02:17] <occy> some little curses based tool or something
[02:18] <occy> heck, There has to even be a gnome app
[02:18] <hajuu> youd have to google it.. I know of nothing
[02:18] <occy> I know there is in Fedora
[02:18] <occy> hmmm
[02:18] <m_0_r_0_n> My usbflashdisc is formatted with vfat. Is there a better filesystem for such a media disk that can be also read by Linux and WinXP?
[02:18] <chri[s] > well i have to jet but i'll shall return and solve this mounting issue
[02:18] <occy> hajuu: it's called services
[02:18] <chri[s] > 2+ hours
[02:18] <hajuu> oh oh oh
[02:18] <occy> hajuu: found it in System > Administration

[02:23] <monomaniacpat> Hi guys! Can anyone give me a clue as to how I find out the right horizsynch and vertrefresh for my monitors?
[02:24] <lazzareth> ^ i second that
[02:24] <lazzareth> for a VX700
[02:27] <oferw> I asked in the forums and still no anser so I will ask here again - when trying live cd of last version I recive this [4294895.704000]  irq 15: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) and after [4294898.704000]  handlers:
[02:27] <oferw> [4294895.704000]  [c0251720]  (ide_inter+0x0/0x200)
[02:27] <oferw> [4294895.704000]  Disabling IRQ #15
[02:27] <oferw> any idea what to do?
[02:27] <oasis> join #chat
[02:28] <oasis> hello all
[02:29] <miranda83> hello guys, how can i check if i addedd correctly a line to the crontab file? i mean, the program seems to not be executed
[02:29] <xwing> how does one go about registering pcf fonts with ubuntu?
[02:29] <xwing> i'm using dapper beta 2
[02:29] <nalioth> xwing: you've not updated in 3 months?
[02:29] <xwing> came across this awesome site called proggy fonts, but the pcf.gz file doesn't get recognized
[02:30] <xwing> nalioth: i have infact quite recently (couple of days ago). why?
[02:30] <monomaniacpat> vertrefresh/ horizsynch anyone?
[02:30] <nalioth> xwing: then you're using flight 7+
[02:30] <xwing> nalioth: yea...whatever's the latest one...i've kind of lost track of releases after I installed flight 6
[02:30] <miranda83> hello guys, how can i check if i addedd correctly a line to the crontab file? i mean, the program seems to not be executed
[02:30] <xwing> nalioth: i just keep updating
[02:31] <nalioth> xwing: the website didnt have instructions? (i've never heard of a pcf font)
[02:31] <cafuego> miranda83: cron should have sent you an email with output
[02:31] <nalioth> miranda83: please don't repeat every minute, we are not ignoring you
[02:31] <xwing> nalioth: well if you look under /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/ you will see a whole load of .pcf.gz fonts
[02:31] <miranda83> nalioth, sorry
[02:31] <miranda83> cafuego, how can i read it?
[02:31] <xwing> nalioth: its just that i can't get gnome to show them (and use them)
[02:32] <cafuego> miranda83: with a mail program
[02:32] <miranda83> ??
[02:32] <cafuego> miranda83: check /var/spool/mail/<username>
[02:32] <miranda83> yeah better
[02:32] <nalioth> ubotu: tell xwing about fonts
[02:32] <miranda83> there is nothing in there
[02:33] <cafuego> then either it didn't run at all or ran ok
[02:33] <miranda83> i added a line to /etc/crontab directly
[02:33] <miranda83> did i did wrong?
[02:33] <pd273> Hi there, I just added a network card to my Ubuntu server, how do I tell the machine to take the new eth1 interface
[02:34] <nalioth> miranda83: yes, that is not the correct way.  use "crontab -e"
[02:34] <bbrazil> pd273: assuming it show up in 'ifconfig -a' output, just add it to /etc/network/interfaces
[02:34] <xwing> pd273: check /etc/network/interfaces
[02:34] <cafuego> miranda83: Normally you'd do it with 'crontab -e'
[02:34] <pd273> bbrazil: it is not showing in 'ifconfig -a'
[02:35] <cafuego> miranda83: Or if it needs to run once a day, maybe drop a script into /etc/cron.daily
[02:35] <[WP] IOWAHC> Hy @ all
[02:35] <pd273> bbrazil: I am searching how I can tell my system there is a network card at eth1
[02:35] <bbrazil> pd273: does it show up in 'lspci' ?
[02:35] <monomaniacpat> Does anyone know how to find out my horizsynch and vertrefresh
[02:35] <monomaniacpat> ?
[02:35] <miranda83> cafuego, i added: 27 *    * * *   root    /home/miranda/.script
[02:35] <[WP] IOWAHC> am i able to install Ubuntu from a Live CD... if yes... how?
[02:35] <miranda83> can i add the script directly into cron.hourly?
[02:36] <rausku> what is the best rar extracting software on linux?
[02:36] <pd273> bbrazil: lspci shows me this  ->0000:04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02)
[02:36] <pd273> 0000:04:08.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 27dc (rev 01)
[02:36] <nalioth> [WP] IOWAHC: from a dapper liveCD it's possible.  just look at the desktop when it boots up
[02:36] <xwing> pd273: you can try 'lspci', also 'lshw -class net'
[02:36] <nalioth> rausku: there is no 'best' use unrar-nonfree
[02:36] <bbrazil> pd273: right, you probably need to load the module for the new card
[02:37] <conhe> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables what is ?
[02:37] <pd273> bbrazil: in which file do I do this
[02:37] <bbrazil> pd273: sudo modprobe the_module_name
[02:37] <pd273> bbrazil: thanks
[02:37] <_jason> conhe: install the build-essential package
[02:37] <pd273> bbrazil: how do i make sure in the next reboot this module is loaded
[02:37] <bbrazil> pd273: once you ginf the name, add it to the end of /etc/modules fo it'll be installed on bootup
[02:37] <[WP] IOWAHC> @nalioth: ok.... thats a problem... my PCIe Videocard is not supported... I am able to boot and change in Commandline. with the fglrx driver it worked with breezy.... but with dapper, after I apt-get the driver and changed the xorg.conf he can't restart the gdm
[02:38] <pd273> bbrazil: thanks a lot
[02:38] <nalioth> [WP] IOWAHC: perhaps you should ask this in #ubuntu+1 (for dapper discussion0
[02:38] <[WP] IOWAHC> thx
[02:39] <ferronica> Is utorrent is available for ubuntu?????
[02:39] <ferronica> Is utorrent is available for ubuntu?????
[02:41] <iNiku> Sl33P: we really don't need to know
[02:42] <Sl33P> iNiku i didn't make any away message
[02:42] <Sl33P> just a nick Okay ?
[02:42] <afd_> hi! I'm using dapper and my subversion stopped working. Neither import or commit would work, I get a "unrecognized URL scheme"
[02:42] <afd_> any idea on what could have caused it? It might have been affected by a recent updated
[02:43] <cafuego> Sl33P: Yes, you really did
[02:43] <Sl33P> cafueg u can see ?
[02:44] <cafuego> Yes. There is no need to spam the channel with ascii-nicks. We can see when you're idle all by ourseves.
[02:44] <Sl33P> cafueg whois spam then
[02:44] <conhe> ty
[02:44] <Sl33P> am not spamming By The Way
[02:45] <cafuego> {A}{W}{A}{Y} is now known as F0LL0W3R  <-- Yes, you are.
[02:45] <Jemt> Are any events fired when a window is resized?
[02:45] <Sl33P> Every1 have the right choose his nick
[02:45] <Sl33P> cafueg if there are any rules
[02:45] <Sl33P> prevent that ?
[02:45] <ted_> can I just clarify - this is a way to chat with others about Ubuntu Linux, Yes? I new to Linux
[02:45] <cafuego> Sl33P: Ask an op, see how far you get
[02:45] <Sl33P> cafueg Okay when u get the Rules just tell me :)
[02:46] <Hobbsee> !tell Sl33P about coc
[02:46] <cafuego> Jemt: Yes, run 'xev' and play ;-)
[02:46] <Jemt> Thanks :)
[02:46] <ted_> can I just clarify - this is a way to chat with others about Ubuntu Linux, Yes? I new to Linux
[02:46] <m_0_r_0_n> Is it possible to disable the cache of the filesystem. I want Linux to write or delete files at once.
[02:46] <Jemt> ted_: Let me make this clear: stop repeating yourself
[02:46] <mikl> ted_: yes it is
[02:46] <cafuego> ted_: More or less, this channel is for help... there is also #ubuntu-offtopic for more general chat.
[02:47] <mikl> Jemt: be friendly, please. Not everyone is IRC-m4st3r
[02:47] <Sl33P> !tell me about coc
[02:47] <ted_> Thanks Mikl - Jemt..I only repeated because I thought it was missed.
[02:47] <ted_> Thanks cafuego
[02:48] <cafuego> ted_: np
[02:48] <Jemt> mikl: Sure. But you probably don't hear people repeat them self several times in real life. It's annoying and rude :)
[02:48] <ted_> so is everyone here either Ubuntu greats or Ubuntu newbies pretty much?
[02:48] <Jemt> ted_: A nice mix i'd say :)
[02:48] <ted_> so if I get stuck, I may well be able to get the answer here then I assume?
[02:49] <mikl> Jemt: whatever. remember that this is an official support channel, so berating newcomers for their bad behavier is not really important. This is not debian, you know.
[02:49] <bimberi> ted_: yep, that's the idea
[02:49] <cafuego> ted_: Yeah, probably :-)
[02:49] <monomaniacpat> Does anyone know how to find out my horizsynch and vertrefresh for my monitors?
[02:50] <freezey> i am trying to log into my mysql server and i am gettin error 1045(28000_: access denied for user
[02:50] <freezey> its not configured yet
[02:50] <Jemt> mikl: No need to make such a big deal out of it. I just told him not to repeat himself
[02:50] <freezey> so i dunno why i cant login the sql command line
[02:50] <freezey> monomaniacpat: i am pretty sure its in your xorg.conf
[02:51] <ted_> Is this IRC fairly secure then? I read it was the hackers (crackers) tool?
[02:52] <monomaniacpat> freezey: I didn't think to check there. However, I also have an external monitor which isn't referenced in xorg
[02:52] <mikl> ted_: crackers use it too, but you are in no danger when using it, unless you accept files from people you don't know or something like that
[02:52] <cafuego> ted_: Back in 1992, perhaps. Not now
[02:52] <ted_> lol
[02:53] <noonex> its a tool in the sense that they use to talk to each other....
[02:53] <freezey> monomaniacpat: so are you runnin dual monitors?
[02:53] <mikl> noonex: actually, IRC is essetial to many botnets :)
[02:54] <noonex> mikl: i know :) i was attempting humor, it happen again :P
[02:54] <mikl> oh :)
[02:54] <ted_> how are people getting the name of the person they are replying to to appear on the screen automatically, or is it etiquette to type it??
[02:54] <nalioth> ted_: irc is a method of communication, just like a cell phone or your mouth.  misuse of any of these is possible
[02:54] <nalioth> ted_: it's etiquette
[02:54] <bimberi> monomaniacpat: monitor manual or via the manufacturer's website
[02:55] <Hobbsee> ted_: it usually flashes red on that person's screen.  use nick<tab> to get the nick
[02:55] <noonex> ted_: most irc clients have name completion, xchat for example uses  tab
[02:55] <mikl> ted_: depending on your client, you can tab-complete the name of the person you want to speak to by pressing the first few letters of his name and then <tab>
[02:55] <ferronica> Is utorrent is available for ubuntu?????
[02:55] <monomaniacpat> freezey: would like to. bimberi: I'll try that thanks.
[02:55] <nalioth> ferronica: it is not, unless you run it using wine
[02:56] <pluffsy> hi
[02:56] <mikl> ted_: inserting the name of the one you're talking to makes communication here a lot easier - especially when lots of conversations are going on at once
[02:56] <freezey> monomaniacpat: so wait wait what are you trying to do exactly? what are you asking me?
[02:56] <monomaniacpat> freezey: I'm trying to get twinview working
[02:57] <pluffsy> I don't know if this is off topic. But I'm trying to test an https connection. So I want to see that nothing is unencrypted anywhere from my computer to a certain site. I thought tcpdump would be the tool, but it only seems to print the headers and not the actual html pages. Am I just really bad at reading the man pages or am I right?
[02:57] <freezey> monomaniacpat: i am not sure i never set up dual monitors i am pretty sure u have to have both of them in the xorg.conf tho
[02:57] <voraistos> hi guys! could smo giveme his repositories list? non-UK pls ! (universe and multiverse are active, but things are missing ?!!)
[02:58] <ted_> When I right click on a user and click their name from the popup menu, next to 'user:' everyone's values seem quite vague. But mine is quite apparent. Anyway to disguise, or do I not need to be too concerned
[02:58] <ted_> When I right click on a user and click their name from the popup menu, next to 'user:' everyone's values seem quite vague. But mine is quite apparent.
[02:58] <monomaniacpat> freezey: yes. I am using a tutorial on the forums, but he told me to set the horizsynch and vertrefresh  - I just don't know what those are
[02:58] <ted_> When I right click on a user and click their name from the popup menu, next to user: everyones values seem quite vague. But mine is quite apparent.
[02:58] <freezey> monomaniacpat: those are in your xorg.conf
[02:59] <ted_> Sorry for the repeats there (I was not scrolled to bottom of screen, lol)
[03:00] <cg> roboform extension does not support ff15, is there any other option?
[03:01] <mikl> ted_: I'm not sure what you mean. If you're thinking your hostname/IP, it is hidden from everyone else
[03:01] <bimberi> ted_: what details do you mean?
[03:01] <ndazza> Hi! I'm having trouble installing VMWare Server. The installer wants to compile a kernel module but I don't have the required kernel headers installed, and they aren't available via apt-get. Where can i find them?
[03:01] <docker> hi all!
[03:01] <mikl> ted_: or rather, it is hidden, if you're registered with nickserv
[03:03] <lukas_> Moin!!!!
[03:03] <ted_> in my case, when I click on my own username it reports me to be tedsmith28@force9.co.uk
[03:03] <zAo^> what packages contain the ubuntu iconset and the ubuntu theme (border)? Thanks
[03:03] <ted_> but I'd rather it be less specific
[03:03] <ndazza> oh, the version i need is linux-headers-2.6.12-10 (for i386, breezy)
[03:03] <lukas_> try gnoem_art
[03:03] <lukas_> gnome_art
[03:03] <ted_> if one of you guys click on it do you see the same thing?
[03:03] <mikl> ted_: have you registered with nickserv - it can hide your hostname for you :)
[03:03] <ted_> no - i had not heard of that
[03:03] <mikl> ted_: yes, I see it too
[03:04] <ted_> is it free?
[03:04] <zAo^> lukas_ I did a clean install, but I got no theme at all. Cant select them too
[03:04] <ted_> mikl : where to download\apply? for nickserv?
[03:04] <mikl> ted_: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#registering
[03:04] <lukas_> what about apt-get install gnome-art
[03:05] <zm0> ndazza: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` should do the trick
[03:06] <mikl> ted_: basically, it makes sure that the name mikl is always available to me and hides my hostname :)
[03:06] <pavlix> hi people...
[03:06] <ndazza> zm0: E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.12-10-386
[03:06] <bimberi> mikl: i thought you had to get a hostname cloak set up
[03:06] <pavlix> i have an old pc... pentium I... and I can't use any mouse with it....
[03:06] <mardok> ciao
[03:06] <pavlix> from both /dev/psaux and /dev/ttyS0 it returns nothing...
[03:06] <mikl> bimberi: yes, but to do that, you have to be registered with nickserv
[03:06] <Varoudis> hello, I saw that I have a new "menu" in gnome colled "Debian" which package made it?
[03:07] <pavlix> I am moving both ps2 and serial mice.... but it doesn't write anything
[03:07] <zm0> ndazza: i just tried it and i'm getting a "404 Not Found" from security.ubuntu.com
[03:07] <bimberi> mikl: ah, so not registering alone then :)
[03:07] <mikl> bimberi: I'm not sure if it's automatic these days - there was some talk about making it automatic, anyways
[03:07] <monomaniacpat> Has anyone here managed to load shared files from a windows machine into ubuntu? I've set it up, but konqueror gives the error: Internal Error Please send a full bug report at http://bugs.kde.org libsmbclient reported an error, but did not specify what the problem is. This might indicate a severe problem with your network - but also might indicate a problem with libsmbclient. If you want to help us, please provide a tcpdump of the netw
[03:08] <ted_> to those that have helped me today - thanks. I off now to try and register with NickServ. Back soon
[03:08] <mikl> ted_: np :)
[03:08] <ndazza> zm0: ahh, i think you just solved it for me - i checked my sources.list and i don't have security updates enabled
[03:08] <ndazza> thanks!
[03:10] <zm0> ndazza: yw, but i think they're doing some maintenance right now..
[03:10] <pavlix> anybody knows how to make serial or ps2 mice work?
[03:10] <ndazza> zm0: maybe on the main one, but i'm using the au mirror - works fine :)
[03:10] <pavlix> on an old pc?
[03:11] <Varoudis> anyone to have a "debian" menu in gnome?
[03:11] <bimberi> pavlix: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[03:11] <_jason> Varoudis: yes, install the 'menu' package
[03:12] <pavlix> bimberi: it would first have to work... befor I configure X for it
[03:12] <SlHacker> can any one PM me to explain why there is no root account?
[03:12] <_jason> SlHacker: have you read the wiki page?
[03:12] <bigfoot1> i have a jpeg of a scanned document. How can I do an OCR on it? In other words, how can I extract just the text from this simple document?
[03:12] <pavlix> bimberi: cat /dev/psaux and /dev/ttyS0 gives no output to me
[03:12] <Varoudis> _jason, Its not in the default install ,right?
[03:12] <bimberi> pavlix: hmmk
[03:12] <_jason> Varoudis: no, it's in the universe repository actually
[03:13] <Varoudis> _jason, ok thnx

[03:30] <belkin> ferronica why it has to be utorrent ?
[03:30] <voraistos> utorrent rules. they should port it to linux
[03:30] <Forgott3n> I am in the middle of the ubuntu installer, I am at the partitioning menu... I have a disk (IDE1 Master) with partitions C:/ (#2) and D:/ (#5) I have cleared Partition #5 and re-created it. Currently both are FAT32.. When I tried to continue, it said the file root system could not be found... HELP!
[03:30] <HymnToLife> Forgott3n> you should format one partition as ext3
[03:30] <hollowlife1987> ferronica, if you really want to use utorrent read this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OSEmulation
[03:31] <Forgott3n> ext3?
[03:31] <HymnToLife> and mount it on /
[03:31] <belkin> Forgott3n  format the partition at least one
[03:31] <Forgott3n> Im trying to create a dual boot
[03:31] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:31] <ferronica> utorrent is nice program
[03:31] <Forgott3n> thanks
[03:31] <Forgott3n> Ill idle
[03:31] <ferronica> less CPU usage
[03:31] <Gizmo_The_Great> How do I contact a 'netwrok staffer'?
[03:31] <bimberi> Forgott3n: and tell it that the mount point is /, it has probably defaulted to /media/hda5 or something
[03:31] <belkin> Forgott3n yeah ext3
[03:31] <Gizmo_The_Great> Sorry, that should read 'How do I contact a 'network staffer'?

[03:33] <oxpub> if i had accidentally run "chmod -R 777 / " what would i do to repair this, other than reinstall?
[03:33] <belkin> Forgott3n yes set the bootable flag on
[03:33] <bigmoe> can anyone tell me how to search for a file in ubuntu system???
[03:33] <Gizmo_The_Great> bimberi, lol
[03:33] <Gizmo_The_Great> i will look at that ...
[03:33] <Forgott3n> belkin
[03:33] <Forgott3n> belkin: is it advised to do so?
[03:33] <belkin> oxpub chmod to what you want
[03:34] <belkin> Forgott3n i would
[03:34] <ferronica> i use both OS Xp and ubuntu
[03:34] <bimberi> Forgott3n: hm, i didn't think so but aren't certain
[03:34] <belkin> Forgott3n i did on my install
[03:34] <ferronica> whats ur problem
[03:34] <bimberi> Gizmo_The_Great: :)
[03:34] <belkin> Forgott3n i do the same ubuntu and xandros
[03:34] <Forgott3n> what does this mean for my main drive? C:/ (#2)??? It currently has the flag
[03:34] <Ng> bigmoe: locate or find, or Applications->Accessories->Search
[03:34] <ferronica> so what torrent program to download
[03:34] <belkin> ferronica aint got none ...
[03:35] <belkin> ferronica as google ;)
[03:35] <bigmoe> Ng: what if i am in terminal
[03:35] <hollowlife1987> Forgott3n, to my knowlege it means thats the drive it will boot to by default
[03:35] <ferronica> where CPU usage is low
[03:35] <belkin> Forgott3n well that should be your secound partition for that hdd
[03:35] <ndazza> bigmoe: using the console you can type: locate <file>. or using the gui there is a folder with a magnifying glass near the top right of the screen (if it isn't there right-click and click add to panel)
[03:35] <hollowlife1987> ferronica, use bit tornado
[03:35] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:35] <Ng> bigmoe: locate or find. locate is very quick and uses a database that's updated nightly, find actually searches the current hard disk layout, so is slower
[03:35] <Forgott3n> thanks
[03:35] <ferronica> how to install
[03:36] <ferronica> apt-get install bit tornado
[03:36] <belkin> ferronica taking a piss ?
[03:36] <Ng> ferronica: without the space ;)
[03:36] <g0dchild> Can someone please help me with this 'easyinstall.sh' (apprently not so) script for installing e-17 from CVS?
[03:36] <bigmoe> Ng: thanks a lot
[03:36] <g0dchild> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13618
[03:36] <ferronica> ok
[03:36] <belkin> ferronica what about sudo apt-cache serach torrent ?
[03:36] <g0dchild> thats the link to the error messages
[03:36] <belkin> *search  err
[03:36] <Ng> belkin: you don't need the sudo for apt-cache :)
[03:36] <haakonn> why won't vlc (wxvlc) ever remember my dvd settings? i have to put in the dvd device every time i start vlc to watch a dvd
[03:37] <bimberi> Forgott3n: just checked mine, my windows has boot set, but neither of the 2 linux partitions i boot from have it set
[03:37] <Gizmo_The_Great>     /stats p
[03:37] <belkin> Ng hell yeah i get used to it ;)
[03:37] <ndazza> g0dchild: you need gtk libs installed. try sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[03:37] <freezey> has anyone here every setup phpgroupware?
[03:37] <monomaniacpat> Has anyone here managed to share files from windows to ubuntu? I get an error with konqueror - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13619
[03:37] <ndazza> freezey: yeah a while ago
[03:37] <g0dchild> thanks, ndazza
[03:38] <Gizmo_The_Great> are the people's who's usernames appear in square brackets network staff?
[03:38] <Gizmo_The_Great> The commands in the help say to type /quote stats p and stuff, but it isnt working
[03:38] <freezey> ndazza: i have to setup a mysql server and an apache server for it to run?
[03:38] <ndazza> freezey: yes, and php as well
[03:39] <belkin> anyone using cedega ?
[03:39] <Forgott3n> hey guys, I have finished the partition set-up and changed the to-be linux partition to ext3, but I just got a dialog saying that one partition should be a swap... yes or no?
[03:39] <spikeb> yes
[03:39] <freezey> ndazza: ok but whats the reason like i am pretty sure i have the sql one up and running but what do i do with it? like its up so now hwat
[03:39] <spikeb> need swap
[03:39] <Forgott3n> what does swap do?
[03:39] <freezey> ndazza: does it have to carry out some certain task?
[03:39] <Forgott3n> it wasn't on my system before?
[03:39] <hollowlife1987> yes you need swap, its like the page file for windows
[03:40] <belkin> Forgott3n yes it would be better to make one ... aint that bad without it
[03:40] <ndazza> freezey: the details will be in the documentation for phpgroupware. try searching for an ubuntu howto for it.
[03:40] <Forgott3n> but...
[03:40] <freezey> ok
[03:40] <Forgott3n> when I make the linux partition swap, it complains about the root file system
[03:40] <ndazza> freezey: the database is used to store stuff like calendar dates, todo notes, etc...
[03:40] <hollowlife1987> it uses hdd space as virtual ram
[03:40] <Forgott3n> and when I make it ext3 it complains about swap
[03:40] <monomaniacpat> Has anyone here managed to share files from windows to ubuntu? I get an error with konqueror - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13619
[03:40] <hollowlife1987> make another partion
[03:40] <belkin> Forgott3n so its up to you ... i do have a swap partition and it  about 500 MB only
[03:40] <mikl> Forgott3n: it's like swap-space on windows - if you run out of RAM, it uses some of the harddisk instead. It also swaps out allocated memory that doesn't get read a lot to make better use of your RAM
[03:41] <Forgott3n> how much does it hinder my system? I have 2gbs of ram
[03:41] <Forgott3n> ddram*
[03:41] <ndazza> monomaniacpat: try with nautilus, or ask in #kubuntu
[03:41] <Ng> Forgott3n: it's always a good idea to have some swap, no matter how much RAM you have
[03:41] <belkin> Forgott3n well swap it like " just in case " ;)
[03:41] <Forgott3n> not once have I gone over 75% usage of my ram
[03:41] <Gizmo_The_Great> Can anyone tell me how to contact the network staff. The http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#helpfromstaff link tells me to type commands like '/quote stats p' and '/stats p' or '/who freenode/staff/*' but they do not appear to work. I using XChat 2.4.4
[03:41] <mikl> Forgott3n: it shouldn't have any real impact if you have that much RAM :)
[03:41] <Ng> Forgott3n: that way the kernel can move things that aren't being used into it and use the rest of your RAM for caches
[03:41] <CraiZE> could someone tell me how to add lufs module to my kernel ?
[03:41] <ndazza> Forgott3n: i only have 1GB and i rarely need swap
[03:41] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:41] <Forgott3n> so no swap it is
[03:41] <Blissex> Gizmo_The_Great: join #Freenode
[03:42] <Ng> Forgott3n: again, I recommend having some swap anyway
[03:42] <ndazza> Forgott3n: as a general rule, you should have double the memory (including ram and swap) as you are ever likely to use
[03:42] <Forgott3n> then how?..
[03:42] <mikl> Forgott3n: you just create another partion and set its type to swap
[03:42] <Forgott3n> IDE1 Partition #1 is a 3.8Gb partition thats FAT32 and I have no idea what it does....
[03:42] <donvella> not neccessarily, i have 1gb ram, 512mb swap, no need for more.
[03:42] <sp3tt> Great... My new ubuntu system won't boot.
[03:43] <sp3tt> GUI problem.
[03:43] <monomaniacpat> With nautilus it keeps asking me for a password, it won't accept my ubuntu username and password (which I presume is what it wants when asking for 192.168.1.3)...
[03:43] <Ng> donvella: the kernel is tuned to expect 2*RAM as the swap size
[03:43] <Ng> donvella: although it's not hugely important and you can tweak it
[03:43] <belkin> donvella get cedega and your box will crash every 2 sec :)
[03:43] <donvella> mines working quite fine :D
[03:43] <ndazza> Forgott3n: that's probably a windows partition... possibly windows 98 or ME
[03:43] <Forgott3n> whoa, so for 2gbs of ram, I should have 1gb of swap
[03:43] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:44] <Ng> belkin: cedega shouldn't make a machine crash - if it is there is a bug in your X server or graphics card drivers or you have a hardware problem.
[03:44] <mikl> Forgott3n: yes, that sounds sensible
[03:44] <donvella> im having a problem with my ATi drivers. any body with a clue?
[03:44] <Claian> hey guys, just trying out ubuntu, and i've hit a bit of a problem using the update/install system.   as i'm in australia it trys to connect to http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu.  my problem is that for some reason it keeps loosing the connection to this address,      So i was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a list of other servers i could try connecting to instead. Thanks in advance for any assistance
[03:44] <ndazza> Forgott3n: with 2GB ram, it probably doesn't matter. just be aware that if you ever run out, an application will be killed at random
[03:44] <zm0> monomaniacpat: you need to enter your windows credentials, make sure your windows user has a password
[03:44] <belkin> Ng its because ituse all the cpu and ram you have ... so with 512 ram and a scaml cpu then you can forget abut playing games with cedega
[03:45] <Forgott3n> so #1 3.8gb is core windows, #2 26.8gb (C:/) is my windows hd, and #5 26.6gb is my to-be linux hd (D:/)... and I should make a forth partition? 1gb for swap right? 1/2 of current RAM
[03:45] <ndazza> Claian: what isp are you with? iinet has a mirror. there's also a public mirror at mirror.pacific.net.au
[03:45] <donvella> anyone up to date with ATI DRIVERS?
[03:46] <mikl> Forgott3n: yes, that should work fine
[03:46] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:46] <Syco54645> how can i install the sdl libraries
[03:46] <Forgott3n> hold. going to try it
[03:46] <Syco54645> something i am trying to compile depends on them and it is dieing
[03:46] <ndazza> Syco54645: sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
[03:46] <Syco54645> ndazza: thanks
[03:47] <Forgott3n> oh and fyi D:/ (#5) aka to-be linux is a logical driver while the other two are primary, is this ok?
[03:47] <Claian> i'm with ncable(local cable provider.  gotta love 30000kbps down)  but i'll try them both. was nigh on impossible to find where the list of mirrors was
[03:47] <monomaniacpat> zm0: no, that doesn't work: the login window says username@UBUNTU - suggesting this IS in fact ubuntu login
[03:47] <ndazza> Forgott3n: yes
[03:47] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:47] <shanky> good afternoon
[03:47] <ndazza> Claian: there's also wa.au.archive.ubuntu.com (i think)
[03:48] <zathras_laptop> anyone know of a good url for installing onto raid?
[03:48] <monomaniacpat> hello shanky!
[03:48] <dinamizador> hola
[03:48] <Forgott3n> how do I make a forth partition?
[03:48] <mikl> Forgott3n: Linux doesn't really care if your partitions are logical or not :)
[03:48] <ndazza> zathras_laptop: no but i've done it recently. raid 0 or 1? (or ...)
[03:48] <bigmoe> Ng: in samba if i have 2 network cards 1st is cross cable and second on wireless access point how do i put them on the same network?
[03:48] <shanky> anyone knows isf is there anyway to install php5-domxl in ubuntu?
[03:48] <Forgott3n> Im all very scared of loosing my data, so forgive the redundant questions
[03:48] <slackern> Forgott3n: have you had a look at gparted?
[03:48] <shanky> hola dinamizador
[03:48] <HymnToLife> Forgott3n> move the cursor to some empty space and press enter to create a partition in it
[03:49] <ndazza> Forgott3n: if you have used up all your free space you may need to change the partitioning scheme (ie delete the linux partition and make two smaller ones)
[03:49] <Forgott3n> ok...
[03:49] <zm0> monomaniacpat: try to enter username@windowscomputername there
[03:49] <slackern> Forgott3n: I recommend you to make a backup of all your data to be 100% certain to keep it though.
[03:49] <Forgott3n> slackern: I have, but you know ;)
[03:49] <ndazza> Forgott3n: and of course, you should have a full backup of all your data before doing *any* partitioning with any OS :)
[03:49] <zathras_laptop> ndazza: raid1 have got the 2 drives and they're detected
[03:49] <zathras_laptop> just tryig to figure out how i create the raid so it'll install correctly
[03:50] <zathras_laptop> thought i had it, but it failed
[03:50] <slackern> Forgott3n: just 2 days ago i was resizing /dev/sda1 and it trashed a couple of other partitions :)
[03:50] <g0dchild> ndazza, installed, still giving off the same error.
[03:50] <monomaniacpat> zm0: it just puts it as username@XPnam@192.168.1.3 (which is my ubuntu machine's IP)
[03:50] <slackern> Forgott3n: I couldn't even cfdisk/fdisk the disc afterwards but i could mount the devices and get 99% of the data back :)
[03:50] <Forgott3n> ok, so delete partion #5 (linux) recreate it the same but instead of capacity 26.6 make it 25.6... then create another partition making it 1 and that is the swap?
[03:51] <g0dchild> any ideas as to what might be wrong? i am not using any other options apart from sh easy_e17.sh -i
[03:51] <ndazza> zathras_laptop: 1st set them to type raid-autodetect, then use the create raid menu option, then the raid section will appear as a new partition target, set your partitions up on that. don't forget to leave some room on the drives for swap
[03:51] <Claian> thanks for the help ndazza. any idea where a list of mirrors is so i can save it for future reference
[03:51] <mikl> Forgott3n: yes
[03:51] <Forgott3n> alright
[03:51] <Forgott3n> hold.
[03:51] <slackern> Forgott3n: I can make a screenshot for you
[03:52] <ndazza> Claian: sorry no. From memory only the two official ones are listed there anyways, the others i've found through tireless searching :)
[03:52] <zathras_laptop> ndazza, so when i see the 2 drives, do i partition them first? that's where i'm a bit hazy :-)
[03:52] <zm0> monomaniacpat: did you try mount -t smbfs already?
[03:52] <slackern> Forgott3n: oh well i guess you'll manage anyhow :)
[03:52] <Claian> lol.. then i'll make sure i write them down
[03:52] <sardinasmacho> hola
[03:52] <monomaniacpat> zm0: no, is that in a terminal??
[03:52] <zm0> monomaniacpat: yes
[03:52] <g0dchild> ndazza, could it be a problem with my paths? perhaps in need of editing by hand?
[03:52] <sardinasmacho> de donde es este chap
[03:52] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:52] <Forgott3n> now super important
[03:53] <Forgott3n> swap area = bootflag yes?
[03:53] <Forgott3n> or no
[03:53] <sardinasmacho> hello
[03:53] <Forgott3n> and should it be logical as well?
[03:53] <Forgott3n> Im all a scared :'(
[03:53] <ndazza> zathras_laptop: you need to create the partitions for the size you want, and set the filesystem type to raid autodetect. so yes you need to partition them, but don't give them a  a mount point or anything - that should be done directly on the raid volume
[03:54] <monomaniacpat> zm0: there was no feedback from that command, but it didn't make any difference to nautilus
[03:54] <zm0> monomaniacpat: something like: mount -t smbs -o username //xphostname/share /your/mountpoint
[03:54] <zathras_laptop> ok, when you say "raid autodetect" you mean setting the Use as: to "physical volume for RAID"?
[03:54] <Isaiah> anyone have luck using a mn-720 wireless card in Dapper?
[03:54] <Forgott3n> hello? did I lag out
[03:54] <ndazza> g0dchild: the script may depend on version 1 i guess - try also sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev
[03:55] <Isaiah> It finds it as a "Broadcom 4306", but doesn't seem to power on(no lights)
[03:55] <ndazza> Forgott3n: swap - not bootable
[03:55] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:55] <Forgott3n> and logical?
[03:55] <Forgott3n> should swap be logical or primary
[03:55] <monomaniacpat> zm0: where should I mount it? where is advisable?
[03:55] <ndazza> Forgott3n: doesn't matter
[03:55] <Forgott3n> ok
[03:55] <Forgott3n> thanks
[03:55] <Forgott3n> hold.
[03:56] <ndazza> Forgott3n: the only difference between logical and primary is that you can only have a max of four primary partitions. if you make one of those logical you can have more
[03:56] <zm0> monomaniacpat: /mnt/xpname or /home/xpname for instance
[03:56] <Forgott3n> here we go
[03:56] <Forgott3n> wish me luck
[03:57] <Isaiah> I have a mn-720(picked up as a Broadcom 4306 by Dapper), is there someone special command I need to type to get it to power on?
[03:57] <Isaiah> it shows up in iwconfig as eth1
[03:57] <Isaiah> but won't pick up any wireless networks, and the lights aren't on
[03:57] <zm0> monomaniacpat: it should be: mount -t smbs -o username=xpusername //xphostname/share /your/mountpoint
[03:58] <Forgott3n> WHOO
[03:58] <Forgott3n> installing base system now
[03:58] <Forgott3n> <3
[03:58] <ndazza> congrats

[03:58] <Forgott3n> \o\
[03:58] <ndazza> soon you'll get to find out if it's installing to the right drive too :p
[03:58] <Forgott3n> \o/

[03:58] <Forgott3n> steal... my thunder
[03:59] <sp3tt> Hooray for an operative system that crashes on boot.
[03:59] <Forgott3n> let me run off and check
[03:59] <sp3tt> Wonderful stuff. Can't imagine life without it.
[03:59] <monomaniacpat> zm0: it says: mount: mount point /mnt/DAD does not exist
[03:59] <salmiak> sp3tt, huh?
[03:59] <cafuego> Isaiah: You need firmware
[03:59] <cafuego> !bcm43xx
[03:59] <ubotu> To use your broadcom or airport extreme card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx for info and firmware.
[03:59] <Forgott3n> how will I be able to check such a thing ndazza? after is too late?
[03:59] <zm0> monomaniacpat: you should create it first: sudo mkdir /mnt/DAD
[04:00] <sp3tt> salmiak: well, X won't start.
[04:00] <ndazza> Forgott3n: sadly yes, once the partition table is written it's mostly wait and see
[04:00] <Forgott3n> well
[04:00] <monomaniacpat> mount: unknown filesystem type 'smbs'
[04:00] <Isaiah> cafuego, so it need to update the firmware on the card first?
[04:00] <Forgott3n> lets hope it goes for the nice and EMPTY partition all happy with its Ext3 formate and / file system :)
[04:00] <ndazza> zathras_laptop: sorry just found your comment - yes, physical volume for RAID
[04:00] <monomaniacpat> I do have samba installed >_> <_<
[04:00] <Forgott3n> keyword: empty :(
[04:00] <salmiak> sp3tt, ati or nvidia?
[04:00] <Forgott3n> :)*
[04:00] <zm0> monomaniacpat: typo smbfs
[04:01] <veriz> can someone tell me in how many files is PATH written in?
[04:01] <salmiak> sp3tt, has it worked before? is this after an update or something?
[04:01] <monomaniacpat> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //DAD missing codepage or other error
[04:01] <_jason> veriz: grep -R PATH / | wc -l      ?  (what are you trying to do?)
[04:02] <ndazza> veriz: should be in /etc/profile, and more might be added in ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile
[04:02] <veriz> and what for is /etc/enviroment?
[04:02] <zm0> monomaniacpat: what's the exact command you used??

[04:02] <mopy> my friend is having trouble with his mac (imac G4), and I gave him a ubuntu live cd for ppc, can anyone tell me what to type, in intial boot prompt? i don't have a mac, so i can't try it myself
[04:02] <Forgott3n> now the only problem is becoming a linux guy :)
[04:02] <g0dchild> ndazza, now, i am getting an even more cryptic message about automake not supporting module_la_KDFLAGS. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13621
[04:02] <monomaniacpat> sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=Val //DAD /mnt/DAD (I don't know what the sharefile name is)
[04:02] <sp3tt> xsession.error is filled with it.
[04:02] <Forgott3n> is there a quick and dirty how-to know linux?
[04:02] <g0dchild> thats module_la_LDFLAGS
[04:03] <ndazza> mopy: enter :)
[04:03] <zm0> monomaniacpat: what share's did you create on "DAD" ?
[04:03] <ndazza> Forgott3n: there are several thousand
[04:03] <Forgott3n> ok :)
[04:03] <monomaniacpat> My Documents
[04:03] <mopy> that's what i told him, figures, thanks ndazza
[04:03] <ndazza> Forgott3n: you will have to choose what you want to learn
[04:03] <Forgott3n> Ill google soon
[04:03] <zm0> monomaniacpat: that would be "//DAD/My Documents" with the quotes
[04:03] <salmiak> sp3tt, pastebin or something...? :)
[04:03] <Forgott3n> perhaps basic understanding of linux systems and terminal lingo
[04:04] <Forgott3n> then from there, who knows ;)
[04:04] <salmiak> you don't know if you did anything specific with your system yesterday, sp3tt ?
[04:04] <ndazza> Forgott3n: http://www.tldp.org
[04:05] <monomaniacpat> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //DAD/My Documents, missing codepage or other error (sorry about this!)
[04:05] <graft> hrm
[04:05] <ndazza> monomaniacpat: try smbclient -L //DAD
[04:06] <ferronica> how to remove diskmounter
[04:06] <zm0> monomaniacpat: no worries :) did you sudo apt-get smbfs yet?
[04:06] <monomaniacpat> zm0: not sure, it says smbfs invalid operation
[04:06] <ferronica> how to unmount window DISKS
[04:07] <ndazza> ferronica: right click on them then click unmount
[04:07] <zm0> monomaniacpat: sorry: sudo apt-get install smbfs
[04:07] <monomaniacpat> ah yes.. should have spotted that
[04:08] <ferronica> but they r mounted at the time of booting ubuntu
[04:08] <salmiak> ferronica, or sudo umount /location/of/mountpoint/
[04:08] <ferronica> i used terminal to d/l some script
[04:08] <sp3tt> tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:08] <sp3tt> GREAT OPERATIVE SYSTEM!!!!
[04:08] <g0dchild> ndazza, sorry to be a bother...but can you please lend a helping hand as to what this means? is there any other way i can isntall e-17?
[04:08] <sp3tt> I mean, how can one live without constant fuckups?
[04:09] <sp3tt> keyboard fails too
[04:09] <Hobbsee> sp3tt: language
[04:09] <sp3tt> <3 <3 ubuntu so much!
[04:09] <g0dchild> ndazza, here's the updated error messages: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13621
[04:09] <Forgott3n> sp3tt: drivers make it onto the linux driver?
[04:09] <spikeb> sp3tt: STOP throwing a fit.
[04:09] <Forgott3n> drive*
[04:09] <sp3tt> how should I know?
[04:09] <sp3tt> It worked yesterday.
[04:10] <Forgott3n> then... was anything done to it other then general use sinc then?
[04:10] <monomaniacpat> zm0: that worked! thanks!
[04:10] <ndazza> g0dchild: 1) what is it? 2) there are no errors in the pastebin you pasted. warnings aren't critical
[04:11] <monomaniacpat> Is there not a better way to access the shared files than navigating to mnt>DAD in nautilus?
[04:11] <depuffin> i'm using this command "sudo apt-get install vlc" to install vlc in ubuntu 5.10. Anyone can help?
[04:11] <_jason> depuffin: what goes wrong?
[04:11] <sp3tt> I guess apt-get dist-upgrade.
[04:11] <zm0> monomaniacpat: yeah, you should be able to browse it via nautilus also, like you tried before
[04:11] <salmiak> sp3tt, have you done anything to your system that MIGHT have freaked it up? (like, updating xorg, nvidia/ati driver, kernel)
[04:11] <sp3tt> Let's try the old kernel...
[04:12] <sp3tt> xorg could have been updated, how can I reset it?
[04:12] <salmiak> sp3tt, what graphics card do you have?
[04:12] <salmiak> nvidia or ati?
[04:12] <sp3tt> s3
[04:12] <sp3tt> some old, old crap card.
[04:12] <monomaniacpat> zm0: by going to Places>Network servers? I get the same problem
[04:12] <salmiak> ah
[04:12] <sp3tt> short of like, reinstalling...
[04:12] <depuffin> _jason: it failed in resolving the dependencies. saying some files are not installable
[04:12] <sp3tt> NOPE, that did not work either.
[04:12] <sp3tt> So what now?
[04:12] <Forgott3n> install GRUB boot loader onto the master boot record????
[04:12] <sp3tt> Reinstall?
[04:12] <Forgott3n> this is what allows the the dual boot
[04:12] <zm0> monomaniacpat: and the user Val has a password on the xp machine?
[04:12] <Poker> i need to use a program made only for mac or for win... do you think would be better to use a
[04:13] <_jason> depuffin: can you paste the output from the command as well as the contents of your current /etc/apt/sources.list on pastebin please?  pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:13] <monomaniacpat> zm0: yes, I set it up a minute ago
[04:13] <monomaniacpat> but Like I said, its asking for my ubuntu passwd not my windows login
[04:13] <Poker> i need to use a program made only for mac or for win... do you think would be better to use a mac or a windows emulator ? i tryed wine but it didn't work so good
[04:13] <Forgott3n> GRUB = yes or no?
[04:14] <ndazza> Poker: to the best of my knowledge the windows emulators are more complete
[04:14] <ferronica> cd
[04:14] <ferronica> wget http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[04:14] <g0dchild> ndazza, ooookay- but these warnings seems to have led to the error...they were taken from /tmp/easy_e17/install_logs/evas.log- and it does say 'ERROR' next to evas...i know, its really getting to be a pain isnt it-
[04:14] <ferronica> i used this command in terminal
[04:14] <ferronica> after that
[04:14] <sp3tt> Reinstall it is.
[04:14] <sp3tt> Thanks ubuntu for a great operative system that does not mess up!
[04:14] <ferronica> sudo bash diskmounter
[04:14] <Poker> ndazza: do you know some windows emulator? not wine
[04:14] <ndazza> Poker: if wine doesn't work, you could try cedega - there are some howtos on the net on how to get it working
[04:14] <salmiak> sp3tt, calm down a little :)
[04:14] <sp3tt> It is windows that has to be installed every day, not linux.
[04:14] <Poker> ok...i'll try
[04:14] <Poker> thanks
[04:15] <Forgott3n> ok, went with installing GRUB to the master boot record to allow choice of what OS to boot with
[04:15] <sp3tt> I'll be calm when my computer isn't crippled any more.
[04:15] <ndazza> g0dchild: could you give me more details about the error line/s please?
[04:15] <Forgott3n> sounds like a good choice, no? ;)
[04:15] <g0dchild> sure thing..
[04:15] <sp3tt> I'll reinstall and avoid dist-upgrade.
[04:15] <ndazza> Forgott3n: yes that's the way to go
[04:15] <Forgott3n> ALL DONE :d
[04:15] <ndazza> sp3tt: out of interest, what did you dist-upgrade to?
[04:16] <Forgott3n> YES
[04:16] <Forgott3n> AHAHA!
[04:16] <Forgott3n> it works
[04:16] <Forgott3n> thanks everyone for all of their support
[04:16] <graft> why is your computer crippled, sp3tt?
[04:16] <Forgott3n> your help has not gone un noticed
[04:17] <ndazza> graft: his X won't work
[04:17] <graft> he's reinstalling because X doesn't work?
[04:17] <graft> that seems highly unnecessary
[04:18] <monomaniacpat> zm0: pm me if you have any ideas. Thanks for all your help thusfar!
[04:18] <salmiak> sp3tt, visit http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and paste me your xorg.conf ( /etc/X11/xorg.conf )
[04:18] <depuffin> _jason: i just posted the text
[04:18] <Forgott3n> mm life is great
[04:18] <Forgott3n> byw guys
[04:18] <zm0> monomaniacpat: np, i'm puzzled too :)
[04:18] <Forgott3n> bye*
[04:18] <xnull> can I download dapper?
[04:18] <_jason> depuffin: can you give us the url to it please?
[04:18] <sp3tt> salmiak: too late, formatting.
[04:18] <ndazza> xnull: it's still in prerelease. see the topic
[04:19] <sp3tt> graft: because the crappy os known as ubuntu can't start x?
[04:19] <xnull> ndazza: so no download?
[04:19] <depuffin> _jason: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13624       http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13622
[04:19] <ferronica> how to unmount window DISKS
[04:19] <g0dchild> ndazza, her's the output of the entire evas log: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13625
[04:19] <ndazza> xnull: there are beta versions of the cds available. google for dapper drake beta
[04:19] <graft> sp3tt: i'm sure we can get X working, no problem... did you pastebin your X log file somewhere?
[04:20] <sp3tt> No.
[04:20] <graft> why don't you do that, then :P
[04:20] <pavlix> serial ports of an old computer don't work for me, any suggestions?
[04:20] <salmiak> graft, unfortunately he has already started the formatting of his ubuntudisk
[04:20] <graft> ah
[04:20] <graft> ah well
[04:20] <xnull> ndazza: dapper-install-i386.iso    its ok?
[04:20] <graft> in the future i'd merely advise more patience with trivial problems
[04:20] <_jason> depuffin: ok most of your repos are commented out, do this: gksudo 'gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'  and delete everything in that file.  Then replace it with the one that is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[04:21] <sp3tt> graft: because it is quite, gone?
[04:21] <sp3tt> A computer so messed up it won't boot is hardly a trivial problem.
[04:21] <graft> not being able to run X is not the same as not booting
[04:21] <ndazza> xnull: yes, or if you want a gui install try dapper-live-i386.iso
[04:21] <xnull>  dapper-live-i386.iso ok
[04:21] <graft> X is a single application, and the fact that it won't run is probably due to simple misconfiguration
[04:22] <graft> or possibly incorrect or missing drivers for your video card
[04:22] <ndazza> yep
[04:22] <Pistahh> hi
[04:23] <salmiak> graft, it'd probably work if he'd used vesa, right?
[04:23] <Ven] n^> after the update yesterday my network card isnt working .. and neither is the power management.. what happened?
[04:23] <Pistahh> I have a laptop with latest dapper updates. The problem is that it always sets cpu speed to the slowest.
[04:23] <Ven] n^> linux headers was in the upgrade..
[04:23] <ferronica> how to unmount window DISKS
[04:23] <ferronica> how to unmount window DISKS
[04:23] <xnull> ndazza: http://ubuntu.cites.uiuc.edu/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/dapper/flight-6/dapper-live-i386.iso its good no ?
[04:24] <graft> yeah, vesa ought to have worked... although maybe you need fb support in the kernel
[04:24] <ndazza> g0dchild: only 40 lines are appearing in the pastebin - there might be a limit on how much is pasted
[04:24] <ndazza> g0dchild: would you mind pasting say the last 15 lines?
[04:24] <_jason> depuffin: there is one more step after that so just let me know when you are done
[04:25] <ndazza> xnull: i suppose so, you should probably check the md5sums against the ones from the official server though (i think it's cdimage.ubuntu.com or similar)
[04:25] <ferronica> how to unmount window DISKS
[04:25] <ferronica> please
[04:25] <ferronica> tell me
[04:25] <sp3tt> graft: it is, when x kills your keyboard.
[04:25] <depuffin> _jason: i've modified the file. what next?
[04:25] <Pistahh> ferronica: umount /dir/where/it/is/mounted
[04:25] <ferronica> on desktop
[04:26] <ferronica> and in media
[04:26] <g0dchild> ndazza, - ok, let me paste elsewhere...
[04:26] <ndazza> g0dchild: feel free to /query me
[04:27] <ferronica> Pistahh: filesystem--media---hdb1
[04:27] <graft> sp3tt: no, it's not... booting has a very specific meaning, and your problem is not the same as 'not booting'
[04:27] <pavlix> please is there anyone who'd have some suggestion why serial port's don't work in ubuntu 5.10 on a Pentium I system?
[04:27] <g0dchild> ok..
[04:27] <ferronica> Pistahh: and on desktop toooo
[04:27] <sp3tt> In practice, it is.
[04:27] <rauno> why can't i unrar files that are .r01 --> .r60
[04:27] <ferronica> i hav downloded one script to mount everytime when i boot it is mounted
[04:27] <ndazza> graft: you may need to reconfigure your X server
[04:28] <ferronica> Pistahh: ????????
[04:28] <HIGH-FREQ> rauno: unrar e  ?
[04:28] <graft> ndazza: not my problem, sp3tt's...
[04:28] <pavlix> alright... I can't use ubuntu at all then
[04:28] <HIGH-FREQ> rauno: or you using file-roller
[04:29] <graft> pavlix: are you seriously running a pentium-I? wow!
[04:29] <pavlix> graft: I have several spare old computers...
[04:29] <ndazza> graft: sorry
[04:29] <pavlix> graft: and I'd like to use one as a minimal desktop system
[04:29] <pavlix> I did... with Windows 98
[04:29] <graft> are you sure your serial port is enabled in the bios?
[04:30] <pavlix> graft: it works with a gentoo livecd
[04:30] <pavlix> I can't use ps/2 either, but it's not working at all, even with gentoo
[04:30] <pavlix> *not even
[04:31] <pavlix> graft: it's just... I don't know a way to test it... apart from cat /dev/ttyS0 which fails
[04:31] <ndazza> pavlix: tried cat /dev/ttyS1 ?
[04:31] <_jason> depuffin: had to reboot, did you finish while I was gone?
[04:31] <graft> pavlix: um.. is the kernel module for the serial driver loaded?
[04:32] <pavlix> graft.. the devices are there.... so I suppose yes
[04:32] <depuffin> _jason: yes i've modified the file. tried to install the vlc again but still same problem
[04:32] <_jason> depuffin: run 'sudo apt-get update'
[04:32] <pavlix> ndazza: tried, but in gentoo it was ttyS0
[04:32] <graft> pavlix: not necessarily... try doing 'sudo modprobe serial'
[04:32] <ferronica> its not working
[04:33] <pavlix> graft: FATAL: module serial not found
[04:33] <ferronica> sudo unmount media/hdb1
[04:33] <depuffin> _jason: ok..done running
[04:33] <Ven] n^> after the update yesterday my network card isnt working .. and neither is the power management.. what happened?
[04:33] <Ven] n^> linux headers was in the upgrade..
[04:34] <graft> ummm. anyone know how to check out the ubuntu kernel defaults?
[04:34] <Ven] n^> and some xserver upgrades
[04:34] <ferronica> i tried to unmount
[04:34] <pavlix> graft: it might have been compiled into the  kernel
[04:34] <ferronica> it just remove short cut from desktop
[04:34] <graft> pavlix: yeah, seems likely
[04:34] <graft> pavlix: what does 'cat /dev/ttyS0' say?
[04:35] <ndazza> graft: not in /boot/config-`uname -r` ?
[04:35] <pavlix> graft... nothing
[04:35] <graft> pavlix: also try 'setserial /dev/ttyS0'
[04:35] <pavlix> graft: it sort of waits....
[04:35] <nina17> hola
[04:35] <manuel_> oi

[04:36] <tritium> nina17: /j #ubuntu-es por favor
[04:36] <ferronica> help me
[04:36] <morphix> how do i change THAT hostname?
[04:36] <ndazza> morphix: sudo hostname <newname>
[04:36] <manuel_> in configurations

[04:36] <depuffin> _jason: the VLC isworking now...thanks.
[04:36] <_jason> depuffin: np
[04:37] <pavlix> graft: looks ok
[04:37] <Dr_Willis> !hostname
[04:37] <ferronica> jason: help me buddy please
[04:37] <ferronica> help
[04:37] <graft> pavlix: yeah... so now what are you trying to do with it?
[04:38] <Dr_Willis> morphix,  type !hostname and read the bot url it gives ya
[04:38] <_jason> ferronica: I'll try to help you if you stop repeating and state your question in one single line
[04:38] <pavlix> graft: actually, I'm quite stuck now....
[04:38] <ferronica> ok
[04:38] <graft> pavlix: also, do you have an IR port?
[04:38] <pavlix> graft: it works with gentoo
[04:38] <pavlix> graft: I don't think so
[04:38] <depuffin> _jason: can you tell me why I had to modify the file? what purpose that file serves?
[04:38] <graft> pavlix: well if you do, it might assign ttyS0 to that, so it's worth trying ttyS1
[04:38] <pavlix> graft: wanted to say I don't
[04:38] <ferronica> jason: i hav mounted the window drive, and it mount evrytime when i boot my UBUNTu
[04:39] <_jason> ubotu: tell depuffin about components
[04:39] <ferronica> jason: i dont wanna more to access window drive\
[04:39] <manuel_> ho can help me  i want an voip for pen
[04:39] <_jason> depuffin: there is a gui way to do it (I'll send you the info for you to read so you are aware of it) but modifying it by hand is easier imo
[04:39] <_jason> ubotu: tell depuffin about repos
[04:40] <_jason> ferronica: delete the line from your /etc/fstab
[04:40] <ferronica> jason: i used this site to mount--->https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions?action=show&redirect=AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[04:40] <_jason> ferronica: if you are unsure of the line in /etc/fstab that corresponds to your drive, please pastebin /etc/fstab
[04:40] <llukax> does someone know how to install gtk?
[04:40] <pavlix> graft: no success
[04:41] <graft> pavlix: what are you trying to use this port for, exactly?
[04:41] <pavlix> graft: actually only ttyS0 and ttyS1 are configured
[04:41] <pavlix> graft: serial mouse..
[04:41] <manuel_> someone know an voip for minilinux ?
[04:41] <ferronica> give me the link for paste bin

[04:41] <goo> Hello. I am having some problems with using a sepecific setup for my IBM thinkpads trackpoint device on /dev/input/mouse2, and using /dev/input/mice for all usb mice. Does anyone have a solution for this? I used to use hotplug for this purpose, but hotplug is suddenly unable to fuction besides gnome-volume-manager and hald... :(
[04:41] <_jason> ferronica: /topic
[04:41] <depuffin> _jason: ok, thanks for the links. it's really challenging for a beginner like me to install ubuntu, need to do lots of reading :) thanks for your great help
[04:42] <ferronica> i will paste my fstab
[04:42] <ndazza> pavlix: it should write the garbage when the mouse moves
[04:42] <graft> pavlix: yeh... and your PS/2 port doesn't work?
[04:42] <pavlix> ndazza: it does so in gentoo but not in ubuntu
[04:42] <Adri2000> hi

[04:43] <Adri2000> i have a game which says me to run the "sound server", ""unable to connect to sound server at 127.0.0.1:9433"", what should i do ?

[04:44] <joelbryan> hey, don't paste in the channel
[04:44] <graft> argh!
[04:44] <ferronica> jason: oh soryyyyyyyyyyyy
[04:44] <sonsnix> that worked just fine, but i can't boot the system
[04:44] <ndazza> hehehe
[04:44] <ferronica> jason: did mistake
[04:44] <sonsnix> is there a possibility to integrate this module into the driver into the kernel?
[04:44] <Adri2000> ircbrowser99: sound works well, except in this games whichn requires that...
[04:44] <sonsnix> by modifying the initrd?
[04:44] <Adri2000> -n
[04:44] <joelbryan> hello, anyone knows how to disable beagle in nautilus search?
[04:44] <_jason> ferronica: do you have two windows drives?
[04:45] <ferronica> yes
[04:45] <ferronica> jason: three drive
[04:45] <_jason> ferronica: and you want to get rid of both?
[04:45] <jmjones> does anyone know how to mount an iso file in read *and* write mode?  mount doesn't seem to suppor this even giving it a -o rw
[04:45] <ferronica> jason: one is for Xp other i use for data storage
[04:45] <ndazza> sonsnix: i know it's possible, but i don't know how to do it (maybe it's an ext2 image? try mounting it with -o loop)
[04:45] <Ng> jmjones: I don't think you can do that
[04:45] <pavlix> graft: ps/2 does something....
[04:45] <morphix> does ubuntu have a smp kernel?
[04:45] <pavlix> but I wouldn't say it works
[04:45] <ferronica> jason: ya i wanna get rid of both
[04:46] <sonsnix> ndazza, i'll try, thanks
[04:46] <Ng> jmjones: you'd probably need to mount the iso, copy everything out, make your changes and make a new ISO image
[04:46] <jmjones> Ng any utilities that'll do it?
[04:46] <graft> pavlix: if you do what, cat /dev/psaux?
[04:46] <newtoubu> hi i tried to compile a program which uses gsoap but i get this error
[04:46] <newtoubu> gcc -Wall -Wno-parentheses -c -Iinclude -Itmp -DWITH_SOAPDEFS_H   -c -o src/soap/soapC.o src/soap/soapC.c

[04:46] <ndazza> jmjones: iso9660 is a read-only filesystem - i don't know if it actually supports rw
[04:46] <_jason> ferronica: one is /media/hdb1 and the other is /media/sda1 right?
[04:46] <sonsnix> ndazza, do you know where i can find the start script?
[04:46] <ircbrowser99> Adri2000 -- understood
[04:46] <ferronica> jason: yes right
[04:46] <_jason> ferronica: ok, you want to stop _both_ of them from showing up when you start ubuntu?
[04:47] <ndazza> sonsnix: sorry no, i don't know anything about it. a friend of mine was able to modify an initrd image but he didn't tell me the details
[04:47] <_jason> ferronica: never mind I missed your comment
[04:47] <ferronica> jason: i dont wanna acces them at all
[04:47] <_jason> ferronica: ok, just put a # in front of the 2 lines that have ntfs in the third column
[04:47] <sonsnix> ok, thanks
[04:47] <ferronica> jason: if i delete that fstab
[04:47] <UKMatt> has anyone ever had a problem with gdesklets' program launcher having some kind of runtime error and needing restarted before?
[04:47] <Ng> sonsnix: initrd's are made with the command "mkinitrd", which can add extra modules I believe, but I've never done it, sorry
[04:48] <Ng> UKMatt: every time I go near gdesklets it crashes all the time ;)
[04:48] <_jason> ferronica: don't delete fstab, just do 'sudo nano /etc/fstab' and put a # in front of the two lines that say ``ntfs'' in the third column.  Makes sense?
[04:48] <Adri2000> ircbrowser99: in fact this game needs "Y Sound Server Library", but i don't know how to run that "y sound server"
[04:48] <UKMatt> ng, do you have any clue how to stop it?  i like the launcher a lot
[04:48] <Ng> UKMatt: 'fraid not, I usually give up and kill it
[04:49] <ircbrowser99> Adri2000 -- neither do i
[04:49] <pavlix> graft: yes... on cat /dev/psaux.... it seemed it does something... like newline on right click.... nothing else
[04:49] <manuel_> someone knows an voip for minilinux?
[04:49] <Administrator> why does amrkon crash when you play a mp3 file ?
[04:49] <pavlix> graft: but now it does nothing
[04:49] <Ng> Administrator: you probably need to install gstreamer0.8-mad - see the RestrictedFormats wiki page
[04:49] <Ng> (assuming you mean amarok)
[04:49] <pavlix> graft: and I am afraid I've only one ps2 cable...
[04:50] <ferronica> jason: where to type---sudo nano /etc/fsatb
[04:50] <Administrator> i did that
[04:50] <ferronica> jason: in terminal
[04:50] <knanand> hi
[04:50] <_jason> ferronica: ok first type this: sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup
[04:50] <_jason> ferronica: in terminal
[04:50] <ferronica> ok
[04:50] <Ng> Administrator: you could try running it from a terminal and see what error it produces when it dies. It sounds like maybe you've found a bug
[04:50] <Cryptid> Is there a software which i can use record my Desktop activities i am trying to make a video tutorial.so can any one suggest such a a software?
[04:50] <sp3tt> Right, now I've reinstalled ubuntu.

[04:52] <graft> pavlix: your ps/2 issue?
[04:53] <pavlix> graft: both... but I have only one ps2 cable... the other comp doesn't have one

[05:01] <Stormx2> For fstab changed to take effect you would have to.
[05:02] <ferronica> but on desktop it showing sda1
[05:02] <ferronica> jason: one disk
[05:02] <_jason> ferronica: you can just do 'sudo umount /dev/sda1'
[05:02] <Stormx2> _jason, he's just editted his fstab, are you expecting it to have any effect without a reboot?
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> mount -a
[05:03] <ferronica> ok, from next time it wont mount
[05:03] <HIGH-FREQ> xored: might check your /etc/resolv.conf
[05:03] <_jason> Stormx2: he just doesn't want his windows drives to mount anymore
[05:03] <Stormx2> Oh yeah >.< damn
[05:03] <valehru> hey guys...running 64 bit breezy with 6600GT...how do I enable 3d accelleration for my card?

[05:03] <Dr_Willis> read there valehru
[05:03] <yggdrasil> how do perform an upgrade from breezy ?
[05:03] <yggdrasil> in console.
[05:03] <Cryptid> _jason, thanx, does it record the screen continuosly or is timed to take screen shots????
[05:03] <xored> HIGH-FREQ: as i can resolf the DNS with the "host", nameservers are ok. But i exchnaged them allrey,m no help
[05:03] <ferronica> jason: ok, but i wanna access ubuntu drive from my Xp what i hav to do for it???
[05:03] <valehru> thx Dr_Willis
[05:04] <_jason> Cryptid: continuously I think, but I didn't have much luck with it
[05:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell ferronica about explore2fs
[05:04] <HIGH-FREQ> hmm
[05:04] <hollowlife1987> ferronica, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[05:04] <ferronica> jason: so that whatever mp3 or software i download i can transfer from here
[05:04] <Kickersny> is there somewhere I can download a boot floppy for ubuntu?
[05:04] <ferronica> jason: please not gain that ubotu
[05:05] <Kickersny> I can't get this computer to boot from CD
[05:05] <zm0> xored: maybe a search domain in your /etc/resolv.conf
[05:05] <thin_> hello
[05:05] <_jason> ferronica: ubotu sent you some info, I have to go now
[05:05] <ferronica> jason: one second
[05:05] <Howitzer> Does anybody know of a bulk-image-convert tool?
[05:06] <_jason> ferronica: hurry
[05:06] <Cryptid> _jason, y what problems u have with it?
[05:06] <ferronica> jason: i hav installed mozilla from terminal
[05:06] <Howitzer> like converting 25 .png's to .jpg's at once?
[05:06] <thin_> when I run the live cd, after it finds all my hardware I just get a command line prompt instead of a gui, any ideas what I should do?
[05:06] <Stormx2> How do I find the biggest files in a certain directory?
[05:06] <ferronica> jason: and removed it from terminal again
[05:06] <HIGH-FREQ> xored: that is a DNS issue...u have to put in DNS sometimes....u can either put them in the  System > Administration > Network   or  u can edit the /etc/resolv.conf  and put your dns's in there as    nameserver x.x.x.x  'replacying the x with numbers ofcourse'
[05:06] <ferronica> jason: but it resides in internet tab
[05:06] <_jason> Cryptid: it didn't like to record very well.  I suspect it was because I was at 1600x1200 and don't have the specs for that.  You may want to lower your screen resolution to record
[05:07] <ferronica> jason: how to remove completely
[05:07] <_jason> ferronica: use system tools > menu editor to get rid of the menu item
[05:07] <imbrandon> Howitzer: i dunno maybe imagemagik ?

[05:18] <Minty> Yes I have "install_flash_player_7_linux" in the TMp folder but dont know how to insatll it
[05:18] <Elazar> Stormx2: No, thanks, I'll try that. Do you have any better recommendations for an audio player?
[05:19] <Ng> Minty: you ought to be able to just browse to a site with flash in it and have firefox install the plugin for you

[05:22] <Stormx2> hi fwahl!
[05:22] <squidgy> Hello!  Is there a way to configure the Gnome taskbar so that there is more than one row of icons for currently-running applications?
[05:22] <fwahl> sth strange happened to me
[05:22] <Stormx2> squidgy: Yeah, make it bigger?
[05:23] <fwahl> last night i pluggedin my wlan pcmcia card on ubuntu
[05:23] <slackern> squidgy: I think you need to resize the bar to the size 50 then it does automaticlly
[05:23] <fwahl> and it worked without doing anysthing
[05:23] <Stormx2> wow
[05:23] <Stormx2> that is wierd
[05:23] <fwahl> then today i started the system again
[05:23] <yggdrasil> how can i perfrom an upgrade via console ?
[05:23] <pikachu638> hola.
[05:23] <squidgy>  Increasing its pixel height to 48 (double) simply increases the height of the icons in the bar, rather than allowing them to double up.  I'll try 50.
[05:23] <NoUse> !tell yggdrasil upgrade
[05:23] <Stormx2> yggdrasil: You need to edit sources.list
[05:23] <fwahl> and now it doesnt find the device anymore
[05:23] <yggdrasil> yea
[05:23] <dssdude> Found where it installed the mail, I don't need help anymore. thanks anyway.
[05:24] <NoUse> !upgrade
[05:24] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades .
[05:24] <g0dchild> dang...I still cannot install e-17....please help...and yes, I know about google and it didnt do me any good.
[05:24] <Stormx2> yggdrasil: Change all "breezy" to "dapper", then do a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:24] <g0dchild> on breezy
[05:24] <fwahl> yeah
[05:24] <Stormx2> !e17
[05:24] <yggdrasil> easy enough
[05:24] <NoUse> !tell g0dchild about e17
[05:24] <slackern> squidgy: It should be the size 50 for the entire panel not the windowlist applet settings.
[05:24] <Mortuis> When connected to a windows computer on the command line via Samba, is there a command that will let me grab a whole directory?  I tried "get pictures" and it responds: NT_STATUS_FILE_IS_A_DIRECTORY opening remote file \backup\pictures
[05:25] <fwahl> can sb help me?
[05:25] <Stormx2> fwahl: No sorry, no idea 
[05:25] <fwahl> hm
[05:25] <squidgy> Increasing to 50 pixels worked beautifully.  Many thanks.

[05:31] <ryanpg> hey all... can I have a recommendation on a tool to help me identify the machines connected to my wireless network?
[05:32] <osynic> ryanpg: usually your router has an interface for that
[05:32] <Mortuis> When connected to a windows computer on the command line via smbclient, is there a command that will let me grab a whole directory?  I tried "get pictures" and it responds: NT_STATUS_FILE_IS_A_DIRECTORY opening remote file \backup\pictures
[05:32] <ryanpg> I have ip addresses, I'd like to be able to determine the machine type and the type of services (web browsing, samba, etc)
[05:34] <NoUse> ryanpg nmap has OS detection I believe
[05:34] <HIGH-FREQ> ryanpg: u can use nmap and scan the ip address
[05:34] <ryanpg> nmap... ok thanks NoUse and HIGH-FREQ
[05:34] <HIGH-FREQ> ryanpg; i use nmapfe  which is the frontend (gui) for nmap....
[05:34] <enyaw> Good Morning All!
[05:36] <VIMmer> can i use open type fonts on linux?

[05:43] <ryanpg> hrm... nmap seems cool, but it's mostly oriented to scanning hosts it seems... I need to scan clients on the network
[05:44] <Kyral> I use nmap when setting up serves
[05:44] <Kyral> servers even
[05:44] <Kyral> its how I found out I needed to open TCP and UDP for DNS

[05:56] <AndrewCaul> Is it source?
[05:56] <AndrewCaul> or binary?
[05:57] <Ng> Minty: if you downloaded it like that you just run it from the extracted folder, so move that to your home directory or something
[05:57] <KeithWeisshar> do you have an official vmware player image of ubuntu

[05:58] <chri[s] > how would i mount /dev/hdb
[05:58] <Ng> chri[s] : you can't, it's not a real partition
[05:58] <chri[s] > Ng, look at the pastbin
[05:58] <Ng> chri[s] : hdb is the disk itself
[05:58] <Ng> chri[s] : you can mount hdb1 or hdb5

[06:14] <yancheng> wrong forum...
[06:15] <Killaz> is this enough for me to run an SMTP mail server.... for internal use?
[06:15] <MacSlow> Greetings everybody!
[06:16] <HIGH-FREQ> Killaz: for internal use...u can use your internal ip's no problem....
[06:16] <Alcides> Hola
[06:16] <kym1224id> ola
[06:16] <brandon_> gnome sucks. it used up all of my physical memory and swap space until i had to hit the reset switch. kde doesn't do that
[06:16] <bigmoe> HIGH-FREQ: i changed the workgroup but do i have to edit the sftab to which directory to mount??
[06:16] <Killaz> HIGH-FREQ: ok... and what about external use?
[06:16] <Killaz> what are the requirements?
[06:17] <Killaz> I read requirements are tat port25 is not blocked an that I have a DNS server from my ISP...
[06:17] <HIGH-FREQ> Killaz: thats fine....d/l a mail server proggie like qmail or postfix or somethin...read up on it..cuz i do not know much bout it
[06:18] <bigmoe> Killaz: you have to get the dns from isp
[06:19] <HIGH-FREQ> bigmoe: samba is like creating windoz shares from my opinion...u can modify who or what group can access it...just create a smbuser and edit the smb.conf for shares and such...and u should be able to detect them and if password is set on them then it'll ask for password
[06:19] <Killaz> The reason I'm asking is that I'm reading a postfix howto: and in there they say I need to fill in a server.example.com adress
[06:19] <Killaz> so I'm wondering if I can fil n my DNS name without any proble?
[06:19] <Killaz> bigmoe: I have the ISP DNS
[06:19] <RayFredPip> _jason, do you watch your monitor all the time ?
[06:20] <HIGH-FREQ> Killaz: make sure your isp isn't blocking port 25 ...i got postfix up but didn't realize they were blocking it...lmao
[06:21] <Killaz> HIGH-FREQ: I guess they're not.... but how can I test that withou having to ask them?
[06:22] <Killaz> cause the helpdesk is now closed and I dont want to wait till tomorrow..
[06:22] <_jason> RayFredPip: not all the time
[06:23] <RayFredPip> _jason, I just think you are very friendly and helpful,buddy : ) good luck
[06:23] <_jason> RayFredPip: thanks, you too :)

[06:31] <AnAnt> can someone help me with postfix configuration ? what's the difference between "internet site" & "internet  with smarthost" ?
[06:31] <HIGH-FREQ> ya...guess no dating here then ;(   phssss
[06:32] <Ng> AnAnt: a smarthost is a given SMTP server that your postfix install will pass all of its outgoing emails to - e.g. an ISP mailserver
[06:32] <AnAnt> ic
[06:32] <Ng> AnAnt: a plain internet site will use DNS and SMTP to try and deliver mails to the correct destination directly

[06:39] <nicolas_1> i hate so much mplayer
[06:40] <nicolas_1> can someone tell me how can i have totem-gstreamer to display the video instead of only the sound of .wmv files
[06:40] <r0xoR> nicolas_1, that doesn't sound like a linux problem it sounds like a "bad video file" problem
[06:40] <r0xoR> nicolas_1, have you tried using VLC yet? VLC will play anything
[06:40] <JinRoh_> I have the same problem
[06:40] <guem> nicolas_1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[06:40] <JinRoh_> I have only sound in wmv's with totem
[06:41] <nicolas_1> guem: this doc is out of datwe
[06:41] <JinRoh_> but I have video in VLC
[06:41] <nicolas_1> r0xoR: the video was playing with mplayer, but mplayer constantly saying stupid errors
[06:41] <brandon_> rOxoR: great. that does me no good if i have to hit the reset switch
[06:41] <r0xoR> nicolas_1, use VLC
[06:41] <r0xoR> brandon_, try XFCE
[06:42] <nicolas_1> r0xoR: is it that player that doesnt show any progress bar play/pause or stop ?
[06:42] <RandolphCarter> nicolas_1: you need to follow the Restricted Formats Wiki to get WMV support (it won't play DRM'd files though)
[06:42] <r0xoR> nicolas_1, erm... i dunno man, get VLC, that's all i can say
[06:42] <r0xoR> brandon_, personally i'm usually a fan of lightweight window managers like XFCE OpenBox and FVWM

[06:44] <Psikosis> *server

[06:45] <RandolphCarter> and install xine-ui while you're at it :)

[06:55] <HIGH-FREQ> eska: if thats what u mean
[06:55] <RandolphCarter> eska: try looking for the 'Gnome System Monitor' - it's not quite advisable to kill processes as happily as you do on Windows though :)

[07:02] <_jason> bewire: do totem and rhythmbox work?
[07:03] <_jason> (ie have sound)
[07:03] <hastesaver> twopeak, try !fixres, but I'm not sure if it's what you need
[07:03] <bewire> Thanks, I'll try ...
[07:04] <_jason> bewire: you are using kde or gnome?
[07:04] <twopeak> !fixres
[07:04] <ubotu> Help to fix the display resolution is available at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:05] <twopeak> hastesaver, my resolution now is correct, but if ubuntu can not make a connection to my screen, it will assume 800*600
[07:06] <hastesaver> twopeak, it's not a live cd, is it?
[07:06] <lines> hello
[07:07] <lines> ive upgraden from ubuntu 5.10 to 6.06 and now gdm cant start fluxbox
[07:07] <lines> is there a solution for this
[07:07] <twopeak> hastesaver, no it's not. The resolution is correct when I turn on the screen and then the computer. But if I start the computer wait 10' and then turn on screen it's at a minimal level.
[07:08] <hastesaver> twopeak, then I have no clue; I thought it remembers settings between boots
[07:09] <twopeak> hastesaver, It seems not, it seems like it "asks the screen" every time.
[07:09] <Psikosis> i'm having a pretty persitent problem
[07:09] <Psikosis> I'm trying to mount a partition as rw for all users
[07:10] <Psikosis> i checked out that page you gave me, ubotu
[07:10] <Howitzer> How do i check the age of my installation?
[07:10] <Psikosis> and I have formatted my fstab line correctly
[07:10] <Howitzer> Psikosis, ubotu is a bot
[07:10] <rapha> brandon_: Gnome doesn't do that. It most probably was some other program.
[07:10] <Psikosis> ahh
[07:10] <Psikosis> duh
[07:10] <nicolas_2> ok its all right
[07:10] <Psikosis> /dev/hda3       /media/music    ext3 defaults,user,auto,uid=1000 0 0
[07:10] <Psikosis> is the line in my fstab
[07:10] <nicolas_2> i got totem-xine and mplayer working
[07:11] <Psikosis> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda3,
[07:11] <Psikosis>        missing codepage or other error
[07:11] <Psikosis>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[07:11] <Psikosis>        dmesg | tail  or so
[07:11] <Psikosis> is the error i keep getting
[07:11] <nicolas_2> Psikosis: try dmesg tail or so
[07:11] <Psikosis> when i dmesg|tail
[07:11] <Psikosis> [4296756.160000]  EXT3-fs: Unrecognized mount option "uid=1000" or missing value
[07:11] <Psikosis> is the error
[07:11] <nicolas_2> Psikosis: remove that option
[07:11] <nicolas_2> Psikosis: sudo nano /etc/fstab
[07:12] <nicolas_2> probably that nobody has and uid of 1000
[07:12] <Psikosis> i'm still unable to write to the partition
[07:12] <Psikosis> this is my "id": uid=1000(alexander) gid=1000(alexander) groups=4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),106(lpadmin),110(scanner),112(admin),1000(alexander)
[07:12] <||arifaX> how can I set which program opens a file extension in breezy?
[07:13] <Howitzer> right-click and 'open with'
[07:13] <_jason> !defaultapp
[07:13] <ubotu> To change the default app for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties, then the "Open With" tab and change the setting
[07:13] <Psikosis> by the way Ubuntu is tha bomb
[07:13] <Psikosis> but I still can't fix this
[07:14] <_jason> Psikosis: uid is an invalid option for ext3
[07:14] <||arifaX> ubotu - ic will try
[07:14] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ||arifaX
[07:14] <Psikosis> ok
[07:14] <Seantater> Psikosis: remove that opti9on from fstab then restart
[07:14] <_jason> Psikosis: get rid of that in your fstab and instead use chown on your files
[07:14] <nicolas_2> _jason: really
[07:14] <Psikosis> i got rid of the UID
[07:14] <Psikosis> but I can't write to the partition
[07:14] <nicolas_2> Psikosis: try user="user" instead
[07:15] <Seantater> Psikosis: have you restarted?
[07:15] <Psikosis> haven't restarted
[07:15] <Psikosis> didn't think that was necessary
[07:15] <Howitzer> How can i make ls show directories first?
[07:15] <||arifaX> ubotu - but how to set the default?
[07:15] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ||arifaX
[07:15] <_jason> Psikosis: just umount and the remount
[07:15] <Seantater> Psikosis: you'll have to restart..
[07:15] <Seantater> Psikosis: or maybe not..
[07:16] <_jason> Psikosis: and you should change that last 0 to a 2
[07:16] <Seantater> ||arifaX: you cannot ask ubotu a question..
[07:16] <||arifaX> oh its a bot?
[07:16] <Seantater> ||arifaX: he only answers keywords..
[07:16] <brandon_> rapha: a program that runs fine on kde but not on gnome...
[07:16] <_jason> Psikosis: although i guess 0 is ok too... :/
[07:17] <Seantater> ||arifaX: yes, it's a u *BOT* tu
[07:17] <||arifaX> :) - I see
[07:17] <Seantater> ||arifaX: but you can ask a human, like me
[07:17] <brandon_> rapha: or some program that's gnome-specific that has a disastrous memory leak
[07:17] <||arifaX> so can someone help me setting my default file associations or simple tell me where it is configured (file)
[07:18] <_jason> ||arifaX: didn't the bot tell you?
[07:18] <Seantater> ||arifaX: are you using KDE or Gnome?
[07:18] <||arifaX> gnome and I searched already
[07:18] <_jason> ||arifaX: right click > PROPERTIES > then open with
[07:18] <_jason> :)
[07:18] <||arifaX> but I can not set it as default then
[07:18] <_jason> ||arifaX: yes you can, are you clicking properties?
[07:19] <||arifaX> my fault - you're the man - thanks very much
[07:20] <glubps> hi
[07:20] <PVZ> does spca5xx work on ubuntu?
[07:20] <||arifaX> _jason: first step done now xmms opens my mp3s but still missing the possiblity to select more files at once and open them just by [enter]  like winamp does
[07:21] <_jason> ||arifaX: yeah, I'm not sure how to do that for xmms
[07:22] <tab> does silent hunter III work in linux?
[07:22] <_jason> ||arifaX: beep-media-player does it on dapper, not sure if it would do it for you
[07:22] <NoUse> tab check with cedega
[07:22] <Psikosis> you smoke pot fokker?
[07:23] <_jason> ||arifaX: I think it may just be due to the new nautilus that it works for me
[07:23] <||arifaX> _jason: tryin'
[07:24] <PVZ> lg webpro? working on ubuntu,is that a fantasy?
[07:25] <Psikosis> YAYAYAYYAYAYYY!!! I got it to work!!!!
[07:25] <Psikosis> I had to do a CHOWN
[07:25] <Psikosis> and a CHMOD /media/music/*/*
[07:25] <Psikosis> thanks for all the help
[07:25] <Psikosis> now my itunes works!
[07:25] <_jason> Psikosis: you could use chown -R by the way
[07:25] <||arifaX> _jason: not in breezy, well can live with it...event it is not nice
[07:25] <Psikosis> k
[07:26] <_jason> ||arifaX: 3 more weeks for dapper ;)
[07:26] <rjefferson> how do you install ubuntu to a lvm setup?
[07:27] <NoUse> rjefferson the installer has a LVM option
[07:27] <rjefferson> i'm using the beta ubuntu dapper disc
[07:27] <NoUse> rjefferson yeah, it has a LVM option
[07:27] <rjefferson> where?
[07:28] <||arifaX> _jason: is there something like %1 (windows) I can add to the xmms shortcut maybe?
[07:28] <NoUse> rjefferson when you get to the part of the installer where it asks you how you want to partition the dsik, it gives the option to partition using LVM
[07:28] <Deramin> can the desktop version of Ubuntu also run a server?
[07:28] <Psikosis> what kind of server
[07:28] <kevin> I am trying to connect apt-get to my proxy server, I have done:  "export http_proxy 10.0.0.243:9202", when I run "sudo apt-get update" I get this error: "Cannot initiate the connection to 9202:80 (0.0.35.242). - connect (22 Invalid argument)
[07:28] <kevin> "
[07:28] <rjefferson> so i manually edit partition table?
[07:28] <Deramin> web server
[07:29] <NoUse> rjefferson no
[07:29] <NoUse> rjefferson you can have it automatically set up partitions using LVM
[07:29] <rjefferson> it's asking me to select a disk
[07:29] <kevin> what am I doing wrong?
[07:29] <Psikosis> use apache
[07:29] <Deramin> Psikosis: a web server
[07:29] <NoUse> rjefferson well it would need a disk to install to wouldn't it?
[07:29] <_jason> ||arifaX: I think it's a matter of how natuilus does it.  On a command line xmms file1 file2, should open only one player
[07:29] <bbrazil> kevin: the correct format is http://10.0.0.243:9209/
[07:29] <rjefferson> i have 3 disks
[07:29] <rjefferson> i just set up a volume group in the terminal
[07:30] <Psikosis> the "Server" version of ubuntu just doesn't install Xorg, to make things run leaner
[07:30] <Psikosis> Deramin
[07:30] <rjefferson> and it spans all three
[07:30] <NoUse> !tell rjefferson about lvm
[07:30] <Psikosis> you can still install the apache packages post-install
[07:30] <NoUse> !tell Psikosis about apache
[07:30] <robinsw> Hi, guys
[07:30] <kevin> Hi robinsw
[07:30] <robinsw> Can anybody tell me how I can set up my GeForce 4 MX for Ubuntu
[07:30] <Psikosis> !tell Deramin about apache
[07:30] <rjefferson> yeah, i've read that nouse
[07:30] <robinsw> New user :)
[07:31] <Psikosis> am I able to do that also?
[07:31] <Psikosis> the "!tell"
[07:31] <_jason> ubotu: tell robinsw about nvidia
[07:31] <NoUse> rjefferson well I don't use LVM so I can't offer much for advice
[07:31] <rjefferson> oh, ok
[07:31] <Psikosis> !tell Psikosis about fglrx
[07:31] <robinsw> !nvidia
[07:31] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[07:31] <||arifaX> _jason it'll only open one player for me cause its setup says only 1 instance so it plays only the last file I selected in Nautilus - I'll try myself. Other people have more problems than I have
[07:31] <robinsw> Cheers! :)
[07:31] <kevin> bbrazil, thanks!!! it works :)
[07:31] <Psikosis> cool as $hit
[07:32] <robinsw> How nice and clean is Ubuntu?! :-)
[07:32] <robinsw> Well pleased.

[07:37] <_jason> eth0: dpkg -L packagename | grep bin    <-- may help
[07:37] <Deramin> Thanks all!
[07:37] <robinsw> Are there any free MMORPGs for Linux?
[07:38] <eth0> _jason: yeah, i did that already (dpkg -c), but it didn't show any bin installations, just /opt and /usr/share
[07:38] <steveire> there's a flight7 now?
[07:38] <Blippe> how do i burn a cd in terminal?
[07:38] <_jason> eth0: what package?

[07:40] <knanand> how to auto mount my partitions
[07:40] <rjefferson> does anyone know how to install to lvm in the dapper live cd?
[07:41] <rjefferson> can i access the text based install?
[07:42] <eth0> _jason: there's a /bin dir in /opt, but the only relevent command I can see in there is winpro, and i get an error with that - default windows configuration is not installed for this user
[07:42] <_jason> eth0: don't know then, try to find some documentation
[07:43] <steveire> !diskmount
[07:43] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, steveire
[07:43] <steveire> !diskmounter
[07:43] <ubotu> somebody said diskmounter was to automatically mount your ntfs, fat32 or hfs+ drives, download and read http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[07:44] <nicolas_2> hi back, i fixed my video problem, but now there is another one with mplayer and totem-xine, both buffers a while but not enough because they pause a few seconds later to buffer again, how can i set buffering to maximum with totem-xine ?
[07:44] <zukero> hi
[07:44] <cow_2001> i did soemthing very stupid - i ran prelink
[07:45] <cow_2001> now there's a kernel panic every boot
[07:45] <zukero> i'm still using a dapper flight 5, and i want to upgrade to the latest dapper beta...  where can I find the new repo list ? or event a "guide" to upgrade ?
[07:45] <cow_2001> i can't get through
[07:45] <robinsw> Ello, guys
[07:45] <robinsw> Again!

[07:45] <cow_2001> brotherJohn1234, :-O
[07:45] <eth0> _jason: troubleshooting doesn't have anything on this
[07:45] <cow_2001> brotherJohn1234, are you 100% sure?
[07:46] <rapha> brandon_: there's disastrous memleaks in KDE as well, I'm sure
[07:46] <brotherJohn1234> I tested 1-2 days - ( undo prelinking, google, etc.) than i reinstalled :(
[07:47] <cow_2001> brotherJohn1234, gah.
[07:47] <brotherJohn1234> but- there might be someone with more black magic to help you.
[07:47] <Rezonance> robinsw, I think you need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add your desired resolution to the file
[07:47] <brotherJohn1234> i could not find him/her :(

[07:57] <yonatan> VR_: is it onboard or a separate one?
[07:57] <VR_> yonatan: onboard probably, let me check the specs.
[07:57] <brandon_> zukero: open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"

[07:58] <yonatan> hello?
[07:59] <VR_> yonatan: it's onboard.
[07:59] <brandon_> yonatan: does lsmod list a module that is likely to be running the card?

[08:12] <chaos_of_apocaly> hello a im start programming c in linux and i wonder what the differences are with programming in windows
[08:12] <knanand> ompaul, tell me how...
[08:12] <ompaul> knanand, did you do something like update your firefox or something - it seems strange
[08:12] <RayFredPip> chaos_of_apocaly, in fact that depends
[08:13] <NoUse> Jimmey__ what is output when you run lsb_release -a
[08:13] <cansa> who is good with ndiswrapper and wifi cards?
[08:13] <chaos_of_apocaly> of waht
[08:13] <knanand> ompaul, i have not updated firefox
[08:13] <ompaul> knanand, hmm
[08:13] <RayFredPip> chaos_of_apocaly, generally speaking ,no difference
[08:13] <chaos_of_apocaly> some of the libraries are diferent
[08:14] <chaos_of_apocaly> how can i get a list comparing libraries of windows and linux?
[08:14] <Jimmey__> I'm running Dapper
[08:14] <NoUse> Jimmey__ have run apt-get dist-upgrade?
[08:14] <ompaul> knanand, close synaptic if open and try this >> apt-get update <<
[08:14] <Jimmey__> No, clean install from the beta2 install today
[08:14] <ompaul> knanand, >> sudo apt-get update << even
[08:15] <RayFredPip> chaos_of_apocaly, because if you do not develope on system class ,no difference
[08:15] <NoUse> Jimmey__ did you take the repo that ubotu sent you or just fix yours?
[08:15] <knanand> ompaul, i have downloaded mozilla installer from mozilla.org that too gives an error
[08:15] <Jimmey__> NoUse, I took the example dapper sources.list and replaced my own with it
[08:15] <cansa> what does this mean? http://pastebin.com/705799
[08:15] <PrimoTurbo> Hey guys what's that tool that can convert rpm into deb?
[08:15] <NoUse> Jimmey__ and you ran apt-get update and it still doesn't work?
[08:15] <disasm> is the server for ubuntu forums rebooting? I get We'll be right back..
[08:15] <ompaul> knanand, I don't want to think about mozilla.org that is not part of Ubuntu use the one that comes with ubuntu
[08:15] <PrimoTurbo> or at least extract a rpm file I need something from it...
[08:16] <Jimmey__> NoUse, I don't want to update; the update wants to install a load of things I already have installed, like Linux-386, and bash.
[08:16] <RayFredPip> chaos_of_apocaly, the libs you use depends on their compiler
[08:16] <chaos_of_apocaly> gcc
[08:16] <NoUse> Jimmey__ update just updates the sorces
[08:16] <NoUse> Jimmey__ and upgrade installs new packages
[08:16] <Jimmey__> Ohh
[08:16] <NoUse> Jimmey__ but you are running alpha software so you should be upgrading to fix bugs
[08:16] <Isaiah> has anyone got a mn-720 wireless card working a dapper?
[08:16] <Jimmey__> In that case, I'll try
[08:16] <RayFredPip> chaos_of_apocaly, so you wonder the difference between GCC and other compilers ,right ?
[08:16] <knanand> ompaul, ok.. but y is ubuntu version giving errot?? wait... let me update
[08:17] <chaos_of_apocaly> yeah
[08:17] <ompaul> PrimoTurbo, RPM is not the way to go, what package did you want to install it might already be available for Ubuntu
[08:17] <Isaiah> it loads the broadcom module, but it won't activate and no lights come on
[08:17] <Jimmey__> I updated, still no luck, NoUse
[08:17] <NoUse> Jimmey__ run an upgrade
[08:17] <RayFredPip> chaos_of_apocaly, hum...
[08:17] <RayFredPip> chaos_of_apocaly, for example Borland Turbo C
[08:18] <knanand> ompaul, while update i get Duplicate sources.list entry http:// archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_universe_binary-i386_Packages)"
[08:18] <RayFredPip> chaos_of_apocaly, I advise you to refer to their technique doc in details
[08:19] <ompaul> knanand, put your sources list from /etc/apt/sources.list in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:19] <chaos_of_apocaly> ok
[08:19] <chaos_of_apocaly> take care
[08:19] <Jimmey__> Why does it constantly want to "upgrade", and install packages that I already have?
[08:19] <wahjava> I want to reverse this "set -e" in sh
[08:19] <wahjava> how can I do that
[08:19] <NoUse> Jimmey__ you are running dapper, what did you expect?
[08:20] <wahjava> any shell script hacker ??
[08:20] <NoUse> Jimmey__ dapper is alpha,Aka still being developemt, aka updated hourly :-)
[08:20] <ompaul> PrimoTurbo, RPM is not the way to go, what package did you want to install it might already be available for Ubuntu you can install rpm on Ubuntu but be warned if you install with it, it may break your machine in new and interesting ways we don't know how to recover from
[08:20] <apostols> Hi

[08:21] <wahjava> apostols: do u want to run a database server on Dapper drake
[08:21] <Jimmey__> NoUse, on the previous version of Dapper, this didn't happen
[08:21] <apostols> wahjava: Yes
[08:22] <NoUse> Jimmey__ I'm not gonna arge with you on what dapper should or should not do, this is what dapper is
[08:22] <wahjava> I've not tried Drapper :(
[08:22] <disasm> well, i know the answer is on the forums, but can't get there right now, what do I need to do to get firefox and java working on amd64?
[08:22] <knanand> ompaul, i have pasted
[08:22] <ompaul> Jimmey__, its been changing by hundreds of packages a day all the time, what your saying is you have not got the ones it updates so far
[08:22] <apostols> wahjava: Ok
[08:22] <sarmke> ubuntu is very cool :)
[08:23] <apostols> wahjava: Brezee include MySQL 5?
[08:23] <wahjava> apostols: no 4.1
[08:23] <apostols> :S
[08:23] <wahjava> apostols: Dapper is going to be shipped in mid of May
[08:24] <wahjava> apostols: I thought it is stable that's why they're shipping it
[08:24] <wahjava> apostols: try the final release of Dapper
[08:24] <ompaul> knanand, you may remove the last line
[08:24] <apostols> wahjava: Ok

[08:25] <wahjava> how to un- "set -e" ??
[08:26] <ompaul> !repeat
[08:26] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.  You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://www.ubuntuforums.org while you wait.
[08:26] <hastesaver> wahjava, have you read "man bash" ? :p
[08:26] <wahjava> hastesaver: I've read "man sh"

[08:31] <wahjava> hastesaver: I've installed postgres, so getting it's SET manpage
[08:32] <HoboTurtle> hello
[08:32] <HoboTurtle> could somebody help me how to mount a NTFSpartition?
[08:32] <ompaul> !ntfs
[08:32] <HoboTurtle> i need to access some files on it
[08:32] <ubotu> hmm... ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[08:32] <zelevw> hi...is there an no-ip package that works with 5.10? i tried to install but it complained that it didnt find no-ip.conf, i uninstalled, created an empty no-ip.conf, re-installed and it said it was corrupt
[08:32] <hastesaver> wahjava, try section P or section 1posix (both work for me)
[08:32] <HoboTurtle> thank you ompaul

[08:35] <ompaul> knanand, I am wondering what you did to your machine to get it that confused, try >>apt-get -f install << but I don't think that will give you any advantage
[08:35] <wahjava> hastesaver: btw, I also have fedora box where "man set" works
[08:35] <sarmke> breeze rocks
[08:35] <danl> why would the confugure script with vim 7 src say I don't have ncurses installed wshen I do?

[08:37] <ubotu> methinks vnc is http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-36715.html, or http://www.tightvnc.com/docs.html, or see 'x11vnc' (VNC server which uses your current X11 session)

[08:47] <vmadmin> wahjava: i just have xtightvncviewer and ssh (not the gui)
[08:47] <ompaul> AnAnt, not that I am aware of try dia for similar functionality
[08:47] <dushy> any one who assists me in config video files?
[08:47] <ferronica> ompaul: OKAY
[08:47] <ircbrowser99> hth -- vmadmin: VNC Server -- system / preferences / remote desktop
[08:48] <Elazar> AnAnt: Dia may have an importer for Visio files, but I doubt it. It's probably your best bet, though, like ompaul said.
[08:48] <nicolasito> I am the user that installed UBUNTU on my computer, but when I want to access to a folder of another user, it says that I have not enough privileges, what can I do?
[08:48] <AnAnt> ic, thx
[08:48] <dushy> anybody for my viedeo files? :(
[08:48] <ompaul> AnAnt, ask Microsoft to open up their standards :-)
[08:49] <dushy> hello? :((
[08:49] <vmadmin> ircbrowser99: i only have fluxbox installed on unbuntu server I am trying to keep X to a minimum becuase i have vmware

[08:50] <xChipx> Hi. I'm trying to install Dapper Drake beta 2 on my machine, but I can't get xorg to work with the nv driver, all I get is garbage on screen (I have Geforce MX 5200). Does anyone know why?
[08:50] <Elazar> AnAnt, ompaul: I don't particularly care for Dia, as I find it clunky. I'm very sorry to say that Visio is the best program I've found for that sort of modeling. Wish there was an alternative in Linux. If I had the time, I'd try my hand at writing one myself. :P
[08:50] <ircbrowser99> vmadmin: understood. I'm new on this OS and misunderstood your issue. gl
[08:51] <ferronica> ompaul: is there any trojan or virus problem in ubuntu?????

[08:51] <vmadmin> wahjava: yes yes thats it i remember now
[08:52] <hollowlife1987> kevin, whats the exact command your trying
[08:52] <ompaul> ferronica, yes, people keep expecting it to have one, it does not,  they get very confused but then it's not windows :)
[08:52] <kevin> hollowlife1987 "sudo apt-get update"
[08:52] <ompaul> ferronica, there are regular updates for your machine make sure you keep it up to date
[08:53] <ferronica> ompaul: OK
[08:53] <wahjava> vmadmin: so you got the stuff you're looking for
[08:53] <nicolasito> I am the user that installed UBUNTU on my computer, but when I want to access to a folder of another user, it says that I have not enough privileges, what can I do?
[08:54] <hurax> use sudo
[08:54] <ompaul> ferronica, you will see a little red circle on the top right hand side of your screen with a bar though it (like no smoking or some such) click on that put in your password and away you go
[08:54] <hollowlife1987> kevin, your not happening to have gzip attempting to read from stdin before you run that command right?
[08:54] <kevin> nicolasito, you need to be the main user you set up and use sudo
[08:54] <knanand> ompaul, i cud install mozilla from Add Applications
[08:54] <ompaul> knanand, well the -f may have done some good then
[08:54] <kevin> hollowlife1987, know I am not invoking gzip myself, it is when it is updating from some of the repositories
[08:54] <nicolasito> kevin, I login as the main user, but with Nautilus I cannot access, copy, or delete any file!
[08:54] <vmadmin> wahjava: its in the VNCOverSSH wiki the line i tried was vncviewer -via 82.211.81.166 hendrix:1 but i put my own IP address and user name:1 and then just pressed enter nothing happened
[08:55] <ferronica> ompaul: for updates
[08:55] <ferronica> ompaul: anyway i am happy with UBUNTU5.10
[08:55] <hollowlife1987> do you know which reposity it trys updating from when it fails?
[08:55] <ferronica> ompaul: far better then BILL GATES ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[09:12] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[09:12] <hollowlife1987> kevin, you might need to add a line exactly like the deb-src line except with just deb instead of deb-src
[09:12] <PATD> I tried apt-get install opera and it doesn't work

[09:33] <ferronica> slackern; how to remove XMMS bcoz i am using VLC...
[09:33] <abdul> slackern, well can you help change my grub boot loader so that windows is on top of the list of OS to boot instead of ubuntu
[09:33] <abdul> slackern, her is a paste of my menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13643
[09:34] <slackern> ferronica: 'sudo apt-get remove xmms'
[09:34] <ferronica> slackern; after removing it can i able to play mpr and all???
[09:35] <slackern> ferronica: I think belive so.
[09:35] <ferronica> slackern; i hav VLC
[09:35] <mowgly> is there a way to migrate from breezu to hoary ?
[09:35] <ferronica> slackern; XMMS is not so good in comparision to VLC....
[09:36] <jadaz87> hello guys i was wondering what is a good Java Dev IDE for ubuntu?
[09:36] <kevin> abdul, you just want to change which one is default to boot up?
[09:36] <_jason> mowgly: you know breezy came after hoary?
[09:36] <slackern> abdul: Well im not so into grub that i would like to be, but you could just move the rows 145-149 and insert them at row 103, if you count the lines at pastebin, so windows gets before ubuntu in the list.
[09:37] <slackern> abdul: it's just a list as far as i see it and thats how i did it myself before but i don't dualboot any more so im not 100% sure about it to be honest.
[09:37] <mowgly> _jason, no, but i have tutorial to make an 3D acceleration on matrox only on Hoary or warty (In fact i dunno what are the differences between them)
[09:37] <Apokalypse> hello
[09:38] <James296> ok, why cant I install Ubuntu correctly without getting a blue desktop error message that says something like it cant detect my display device? I use a Nvidia Geforce FX 5500 graphics card with 128mb of memory
[09:38] <_jason> mowgly: does it seem like it would not work on breezy?  I don't know of a way to go from breezy to hoary other than a reinstall
[09:38] <ferronica> slackern: again thanxxxx lot
[09:38] <hastesaver> ferronica, btw, why are you trying to remove apps? They don't take up much space at all
[09:38] <slackern> ferronica: np
[09:39] <kevin> abdul, slackern is correct, but you can also just change the Defult 0 to a 6 (because Windows is the 7th "title")
[09:39] <ferronica> i dont like stuffs which i dont use
[09:39] <mowgly> _jason, oh ok, i will not reinstall linux >_< i don't understand why the tutorial can work on hoary or warty and not on breezy :(
[09:39] <James296> and Im havin trouble with the install CD I got shipped to me
[09:39] <_jason> mowgly: where is this tutorial located?
[09:39] <slackern> kevin: heh i knew there must be an easier way :)
[09:39] <kevin> abdul, that won't make it at the top of the list but it will make it the default
[09:39] <kevin> :)
[09:39] <ferronica> mostly i use VLC always and i am familiar with it toooo
[09:39] <James296> well?
[09:39] <mowgly> _jason, it's a french tutorial but maybe you can take a look at the commands
[09:40] <abdul> kevin, so all i have to do is move the windows lines up?
[09:40] <Hoxzer> http://www.votelordi.org/
[09:40] <mowgly> _jason, http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/materiel/matrox
[09:40] <hastesaver> ferronica, ok, but it's usually good to keep alternatives installed just in case :)
[09:40] <ferronica> when firefox 1.5 is relesing guys
[09:40] <cd_rom> in my ubuntu 5.10 in /lib/pkdconfig there is no *.pc files
[09:40] <cd_rom> just some gnomemodules and stuff
[09:40] <dman> evenin'. im trying to install ubuntu breezy server. dl-ed the iso, but on booting from the cd, and when i key in "server", im told it cant finmd the server image. what gives?
[09:41] <cd_rom> so when i configure a prog no glib is found
[09:41] <cd_rom> it is kind of strange
[09:41] <abdul> kevin,  am i right kevin?
[09:41] <hastesaver> ferronica, it's already released -- I'm using firefox 1.5.0.3
[09:41] <drcurl> hello
[09:42] <ferronica> but not for ubuntu
[09:42] <cd_rom> so how can i fix this? even if i got glib installed in my box
[09:42] <ferronica> i think
[09:42] <drcurl> I'm having problems with rhythmbox, it jumps from one song to the other without playing them?
[09:42] <ferronica> hastesaver: it is external download
[09:42] <_jason> mowgly: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto you can read that too.  At first glance, the instructions seem the same
[09:42] <kevin> abdul, yes, if you want to move it up
[09:42] <abdul> slackern, kevin, can you guys take what i have there and modify to make windows default and paste it please? i dont want to mess up anything.
[09:42] <ferronica> hastesaver: not via package
[09:42] <ferronica> hastesaver: am i right
[09:43] <kevin> abdul, what text editor do you use?
[09:43] <hastesaver> ferronica, we tried pointing you to !firefox1.5, but you were unhappy with the instructions :)
[09:43] <hastesaver> ferronica, anyway, dapper is using 1.5
[09:43] <ircbrowser99> !ftp
[09:43] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: vsftpd, proftpd
[09:43] <hastesaver> ferronica, so when you upgrade to Ubuntu 6.06, you'll be using the latest version of firefox
[09:43] <ircbrowser99> having an uphill battle getting ftpd running the way i want it... current issue is authentication. ftpd is running and accepting connections but rejecting all logins, i am only interested in allowing anonymous login (currently reviewing man in.ftpd, pam.conf, readme.DEBIAN) -- can anyone point me to a quick setup guide?
[09:44] <mowgly> _jason, oh indeed, wait i look :)
[09:44] <jack> ubotu no, ftp is FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, krusader, kasablanca, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: vsftpd, proftpd
[09:44] <ubotu> jack: I think you lost me on that one
[09:45] <jack> ubotu: i think you suck on that one ;p
[09:45] <ubotu> jack: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:45] <jack> whatever ;x
[09:45] <abdul> kevin,  for ubuntu you mean?
[09:45] <ferronica> ya that time my firefox become 1.5
[09:45] <g0dchild> gnomefreak,
[09:45] <g0dchild> what application can i use to download themes?
[09:45] <ferronica> hastesaver: r u using dapper drake
[09:45] <hastesaver> jack, are you sure about the information?
[09:45] <g0dchild> gnome/gtk themes
[09:45] <jack> yes
[09:45] <_jason> ubotu: tell g0dchild about themes
[09:45] <Ven] n^> after the update yesterday (lots of xserver stuff and linux headers) the power management and the network doesnt work.. how come?
[09:45] <gteppel> Is there a way to force that whenever a user creates a file under a specific folder that that file is owned by somebody else, like www-data???
[09:46] <ferronica> hastesaver: what dont u upgrade it to breezy badger
[09:46] <kevin> abdul, yes, how were you looking at your menu.lst file?
[09:46] <jack> kasablanca in particular is really sweet for people migrating from windows+flashfxp
[09:46] <abdul> kevin,  i just ran this in terminal sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:46] <abdul> kevin, so im assuming gedit
[09:46] <kevin> abdul, yes, that is correct
[09:46] <rab___> where should i put my access path to my second hard drive?
[09:46] <abdul> kevin, yes
[09:46] <abdul> kevin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13643
[09:47] <abdul> kevin, use that modify that to make windows default and paste it for me please
 hastesaver: what dont u upgrade it to breezy badger
[09:47] <kevin> abdul, I will help you modify it, I will not do it for you
[09:47] <jack> omg
[09:47] <jack> still running warty??
[09:47] <abdul> kevin, ok fair enough please tell me what i should do
[09:47] <hastesaver> jack, no, I'm using Breezy of course
[09:47] <jack> ok
[09:47] <Apokalypse> re
[09:48] <jack> you might want to get dapper, its really stable now
[09:48] <jack> i love some of the new tools that are included
[09:48] <ircbrowser99> !ftpd
[09:48] <ubotu> Breezy has the following ftp daemons available from the universe/multiverse repos: ftpd proftpd pure-ftpd twoftpd vsftpd
[09:48] <ferronica> jack: he is using dapper drake, i told him to upgrade it to new ubuntu5.10 breezy badger
[09:48] <CRJT> Does a .deb package for mysql 5 exist yet?
[09:48] <jack> erm, dapper is the successor of breezy
[09:48] <jack> breezy is the current stable rls, dapper is beta
[09:49] <AlmtyBob> what's a good filesystem to use for a media fileserver with a bunch of big (up to 4 or 5 gig) file and small files like mp3s?
[09:49] <mowgly> _jason, ok on the french tutorial it was not as clear as on the english one, but this 3d acceleration tutorial is only for parhelia, I think i will never succeed to make work my graphic card as a 3D graphic card : D i spend 5 days on google
[09:49] <kevin> abdul, in gedit, highlight and cut the bottom 8 lines
[09:49] <AxXiz> hello, does anyone know why everything i download with apt-get fails its md5 check?
[09:49] <_jason> mowgly: in the page I linked you to it tells you that you can do lspci and check for more than just parhelia
[09:50] <abdul> kevin, ok done
[09:50] <hastesaver> jack, thanks; I know Dapper is stable by now (ought to be), but my ISP has a download cap so I'll wait to get the CDs through shipit
[09:50] <ProN00b> gpl stuff is generally not free as in free beer, but ubuntu is, right ?

[09:56] <Isaiah> but when I go to system settings->network settings
[09:56] <Killaz> !postfix
[09:56] <ubotu> somebody said postfix was the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Postfix or here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PostfixBasicSetupHowto

[09:57] <Elazar> I'm trying to install Audacious from source. The make log shows this... "INSTALL libaudacious.so [adding versioning information to libaudacious] " ... and it appears to have worked with no issue. However, when I try to execute it, I get this...

[10:02] <Isaiah> "Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A): SET failed on device eth0 ; Operation not supported" <-- what does that mean?
[10:02] <wasabi> Recommendations on a good server monitoring infrastructure? I'd like some sort of daemon which can run which can test services and report their failure status, then another service which can forward critical logs of certain levels to my cell phone. ;)
[10:02] <wasabi> including temp events, etc.
[10:02] <Blissex> wasabi: thats going to cost you quite a bit of money. There are several suppliers of that kind of stuff, MicroMuse comes to mind for example.
[10:03] <ys76> wasabi: Have a look at nagios
[10:03] <p0ppy> hello
[10:04] <vio> hi

[10:05] <Sky0231> I installed a nice new GDM theme, but the brown default background shows up for a split second before the GDM theme appears and while my nice new splash screen is displayed. How can I change the color?
[10:05] <wasabi> ferronica: need it for what?
[10:06] <ferronica> for running java based application
[10:06] <master1> how do you burn mp3 cds?\
[10:06] <wasabi> Well, sure. You need java to run a java based app.
[10:06] <master1> ?**
[10:06] <wasabi> Just like you need pyton to run a python app.
[10:06] <kbrooks> ferronica:
[10:06] <kbrooks> !javadeb
[10:06] <ircbrowser99> ferronica: azureus runs ok with the java that came with breezy
[10:06] <kbrooks> er
[10:06] <ferronica> wasabi: at the internet brwsing sometime it needed
[10:06] <hastesaver> !java ?
[10:06] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[10:06] <kbrooks> !tell ferronica about java
[10:06] <ferronica> so is there any need
[10:06] <kbrooks> !tell ferronica about javadebs
[10:06] <wasabi> Shouldn't recommend Sun's Java right off the bat.
[10:07] <wasabi> ferronica: If you think there is, sure. There aren't many sites which require Java anymore.
[10:07] <kbrooks> ferronica: not unless you browse on sites which require java
[10:07] <Sky0231> Any ideas on how to  change the background color on startup?
[10:07] <Killaz> anyone in here have setup postfix?
[10:07] <master1> can someone please help me
[10:08] <ferronica> or is there any codec pack like K-litemega codecpack
[10:08] <conhe> !samba
[10:08] <ubotu> samba is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[10:08] <ferronica> for ubuntu
[10:08] <ferronica> as we normally use in windows
[10:08] <p0ppy> anyone know of how to download gantt charts?
[10:08] <AlmtyBob> ferronica: no really sure, but try "apt-get install mplayer"
[10:09] <Ven] n^> what file has all the modprobes so they run at boot?
[10:09] <wasabi> ferronica: Freely available codecs are included by default.
[10:09] <AlmtyBob> Ven] n^: iI think it's /etc/modules
[10:09] <master1> how do ypu burn mp3 format songs to cd???
[10:10] <master1> you**
[10:10] <wasabi> master1: You find a program that lets you do it. I recommend serpentine.
[10:10] <wasabi> You can install it using synaptic.
[10:10] <Profichilla> Sky0231: you would probably have to change /etc/gdm/gdm.conf ( that is, you would write the changes in /etc/gdm/gm.conf-custom) I think it would be necessary to change the gtk theme that is being used. I don't know how exactly to do this, however.
[10:10] <Ven] n^> thanks
[10:11] <master1> thanx
[10:11] <Sky0231> Prof: OK, I will see if I can. Ive changed the GTK theme, already, though, and the ugly brown still appears.
[10:11] <itrebal> how should i go about setting up a USB scanner/printer/copier (specificly the scanner, i've got the printer/copier working) setup?
[10:11] <Profichilla> Sky0231: Problem is that gdm does use settings different from your user settings
[10:12] <gilianima> how to read .ram with totem ?
[10:12] <graft> itrebal: did you try fooling around with SANE?
[10:12] <gilianima> (radio on the web)

[10:12] <VekWork> so, wheres the best channel to hop to, to get info on developing under ubuntu/gnome
[10:13] <melenko> p0ppy, found something
[10:13] <skpl> Sky0231: there is an easier way
[10:14] <graft> skpl: gstreamer0.8-mad, probably
[10:14] <skpl> Sky0231: system > administration > login window
[10:14] <skpl> then select background color
[10:14] <Sky0231> skpl: That works too. I was just doing it the other way too.
[10:15] <Sky0231> Now, is there a way I can open a terminal window while I am browsing in the file explorer so that the default location is the directory I am in currently?
[10:15] <ferronica> all u guys here using default firefox 1.0.8
[10:16] <roniez> nope, i am using konquerer
[10:16] <ferronica> or new one firefox1.5?
[10:16] <arrick1> 1.5
[10:16] <Sky0231> I am finding it to be a pain to, say, find a file, open it to edit, and find out it is restricted, and then to have to open a terminal, change directories, and sudo gedit the file or change its properties. Any easier way?
[10:16] <ferronica> arrick1: how did u installed it
[10:17] <arrick1> upgraded it
[10:17] <ferronica> arrick1: Is it working fine??
[10:17] <arrick1> !firefox 1.5

[10:19] <graft> what version of firefox is in breezy?
[10:20] <Apokalypse> thx & sry
[10:20] <graft> never mind i'll answer that myself
[10:20] <crimsun> mxpxpod: sorry, but I don't maintain Malone bugs in my brain =) . Seriously, I don't know offhand, but I'm sure there are a couple.
[10:20] <mxpxpod> crimsun: ok, sorry
[10:20] <crimsun> mxpxpod: shouldn't be anything release-critical, however
[10:20] <mxpxpod> crimsun: gotcha
[10:21] <mxpxpod> crimsun: I'm going to get a new computer for the office, so I'm looking at all the newest stuff :)

[10:29] <ProN00b> you sure its the kernel ?
[10:29] <NickGarvey> according to distrowatch an alpha for ubuntu came out today?  what is the difference between flight and the betas?
[10:29] <kevin> rusakk0, np ;)
[10:30] <rusakk0> kevin actually there seems to be something else wrong with it, since it wont even save it as that
[10:30] <rusakk0> :(
[10:31] <rusakk0> but maybe I will just go to school tomorrow and do it there :)
[10:31] <kevin> rusakk0 what does the error say?
[10:31] <jenda> ProN00b: Of course i'm not sure - are you ever sure? ;)
[10:31] <OetmetG> I want to develop an application that disables a synaptic touchpad when a USB mouse is attached to the laptop... what technologies should I learn? DBUS? HAL?
[10:31] <kevin> rusakk0, make sure you are saving it to a place you have permission to save it to
[10:32] <rusakk0> kevin it is my own computer
[10:32] <rusakk0> maybe the layers are wrong somehow
[10:32] <ProN00b> jenda, well, what is your asumption it is the kernel based on...
[10:32] <rab___> can some one help me?
[10:32] <unlear>

[10:32] <NickGarvey> !jap
[10:32] <ubotu> NickGarvey: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:32] <NickGarvey> !ja
[10:32] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, NickGarvey
[10:32] <kevin> rusakk0, I mean don't save it to a spot for administrators, try saving it to your home directory or desktop for example
[10:33] <ferronica> and stops my downloding???
[10:33] <rab___> how can i set my linux drive to master and have my other drive be extra space?
[10:33] <jenda> HIGH-FREQ: nothing I could identify as an error... could you have a look at the last few messages: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13650 ?
[10:33] <gymsmoke> does php need to be compiled a certain way to have png support on linux ?
[10:33] <jenda> ProN00b: A wild guess
[10:33] <HIGH-FREQ> k
[10:33] <hastesaver> !jp ?
[10:33] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, hastesaver
[10:34] <kevin> rusakk0, if you tell me what the error says I might be able to help, I don't think it would be a problem with layers
[10:34] <rusakk0> kevin it says it is an unknown filetype
[10:34] <NickGarvey> unlear: 
[10:34] <rab___> help?
[10:35] <unlear> why?
[10:35] <NickGarvey> rab___: yes, ask your question
[10:35] <kevin> save it as testpic.xcf  (no spaces or anything), what happens?
[10:35] <NickGarvey> unlear: do you speak english?
[10:35] <rusakk0> kevin but i think i have saved tiff files before and i am picking the file types from gimps own list
[10:35] <ProN00b> jenda, try running maybe a ssh server and see if its still accessible when your box freezes
[10:35] <unlear> I don't down
[10:35] <rab___> when i deleted my windwos partition i couldnt boot into linux, it said "operating system not found"
[10:35] <gymsmoke> i have .png files that have a rollover effect and have transparent backgrounds, but when they show on ubuntu server, they have white backgrounds and the rollover effect doesn't show.  is it due to missing lib's or do i need to roll my own php/apache
[10:35] <zukero> can anyone send me a source.list example ?
[10:35] <unlear> 
[10:36] <jenda> ProN00b: will try as soon as i get my lappy back from 'the shop'...
[10:36] <ProN00b> unlear, you know chineze ?
[10:36] <unlear> .
[10:36] <NickGarvey> ProN00b: oh! thats chinese not japanese
[10:36] <bimberi> !zh
[10:36] <ubotu> For support in Chinese, please try the channel #ubuntu-zh.
[10:37] <kevin> rusakk0, did you try doing what I said?
[10:37] <bimberi> unlear: #ubuntu-zh
[10:37] <ompaul> unlear,  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[10:37] <donald> oh.. lol. this is using UTF-8, and I can actually see those character
[10:37] <donald> s
[10:37] <ompaul> bimberi, :-)
[10:37] <ompaul> the bot can't learn those characters
[10:38] <HIGH-FREQ> jenda: i don't see anything wrong in there regarding hardware problem....also i see your eth0 is runnin at 10...u might want to up that to 100 if u have a 10/100 ....you'll see a major speed increase if you have an internal network with other computers
[10:38] <rab___> Do i need to change my settings on my drive?
[10:38] <bimberi> ompaul: thanks :)  yeah i've tried too :|
[10:38] <rusakk0> kevin yes i tried saving it in the filetype you told me to and to save it in the desktop etc
[10:38] <HIGH-FREQ> for file transfers and such
[10:38] <jenda> HIGH-FREQ: how would I do that?
[10:38] <ompaul> bimberi, save that one as a script "Chinese-ubuntu" then cut and paste when needed
[10:39] <sri> so, where can I get a nice deb of vim 7.0 (preferably for dapper?)
[10:39] <HIGH-FREQ> not too sure...might try ifconfig eth0 rate 100M
[10:39] <bimberi> ompaul: oh yes good idea
[10:39] <HIGH-FREQ> maybe that...not too sure tho
[10:39] <bimberi> ompaul: i wonder if Ubugtu can learn them
[10:39] <bimberi> ??
[10:39] <NickGarvey> according to distrowatch an alpha for ubuntu came out today?  what is the difference between flight and the betas?
[10:39] <unlear> #ubuntu-cn
[10:39] <ompaul> bimberi, I'll ask Seveas
[10:39] <ompaul> unlear, /join #ubuntu-cn <<<<<
[10:40] <donald> I installed Samba and did everything exactly as in ubuntu wiki.. and it worked well. then I shutted down computer and added some RAM. then I started it, and now samba doesn't work. It doesn't do shares. where I can begin to solve this problem?
[10:40] <donald> I have ubuntu 6.06
[10:40] <kevin> rusakk0, I'm not sure what the problem would be then. There is also an option under Save As that says "Select By Filetype", if that also doesn't work, then I don't know what else could be wrong
[10:40] <skpl> can someone tell me what plygin i need to allow gnomebaker to handle .m4a files?
[10:40] <HIGH-FREQ> donald: do u have it startup automatically?  ...probably...hehe
[10:41] <hollowlife1987> donald, try joining #ubuntu+1 for help with dapper
[10:41] <donald> HIGH-FREQ: /etc/init.d/ubuntu restart doesn't help
[10:41] <unlear> 
[10:41] <donald> I mean samba restart :)
[10:41] <PrimoTurbo> Besides smeg what was the other gnome menu editor?
[10:41] <HIGH-FREQ> hehe
[10:41] <HIGH-FREQ> gotcha...
[10:41] <donald> hollowlife1987: ok
[10:41] <HIGH-FREQ> error?
[10:41] <PrimoTurbo> it's on Dapper but I'm back on Breezy anyone remember?
[10:41] <bimberi> PrimoTurbo: alacarte
[10:41] <rab___> Nick: should i change my jumper settings?
[10:42] <PrimoTurbo> thanks, exactly what I was looking for
[10:42] <bimberi> PrimoTurbo: np
[10:42] <Zanga> can someone help me i need to burn some things on a dvd .... with what program ???
[10:42] <capiCrimm> whats the best way to change the default editor?
[10:43] <Zanga> with what program can i burn in ubuntu ????
[10:43] <rusakk0> kevin that worked! thanks so much.. so weird that it was refusing so much :)
[10:43] <bimberi> Zanga: use nautilus (the file manager),  copy and paste items to Go->CD/DVD-Creator and select Write to Disc when ready
[10:44] <pvd2006> Zanga, I like k3b, be sure to download the mp3 plugin for it though
[10:44] <rusakk0> kevin you just saved me a trip to another part of the city and a lot of work
[10:44] <rab___> i dont understand why this isnt working
[10:44] <capiCrimm> I know I can export $EDITOR in /etc/bash.bashrc but is there a better way?
[10:45] <Elazar> I've got a Dell Dimension 2400 that I've formatted and installed Breezy on. For some reason, sudo lshw tells me that the machine's RAM capacity is 1 GB, but dell.com and crucial.com are both saying it's 2 GB. Is that a limitation of Ubuntu?
[10:45] <bimberi> capiCrimm:  sudo update-alternatives --config editor
[10:45] <capiCrimm> bimberi, :D thanks
[10:46] <bimberi> capiCrimm: np :)
[10:46] <ompaul> Elazar, type free and tell us how much ram is showing there

[10:47] <Tedd> !ubotu ask
[10:47] <ubotu> Just ask. Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise and on-topic. Information like hardware make, model and output of commands that you used pasted onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org is important.
[10:48] <ompaul> Elazar, that is 2 gigs of ram me thinks you found a bug in lshw
[10:48] <shylock> could anyone point me out on how to add rar support in the archive manager
[10:48] <NoUse> !rar
[10:49] <ubotu> somebody said rar was a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[10:49] <jenesuispasbavar> How do I change my hostname? I know it's by editing the /etc/hosts file, but what do I put in there?
[10:49] <skpl> can someone tell me what plygin i need to allow gnomebaker to handle .m4a files?
[10:49] <bimberi> Elazar: lshw does show each bank of ram separately
[10:49] <shylock> tythanks
[10:49] <rab___> why cant i see my other drive on linux
[10:49] <ProN00b> skpl, whats m4a anyway
[10:49] <NoUse> jenesuispasbavar you can just use the hostname command, man hostname
[10:49] <ProN00b> isn't that some stupid itunes shit ?
[10:49] <ProN00b> skpl, get over it poor kiddo
[10:49] <Matt342> anyone here with a geforce 5200?
[10:50] <engla> skpl: it's AAC so something like ffmpeg perhaps
[10:50] <Ven] n^> after the update yesterday (lots of xserver stuff and linux headers) the power management and the network doesnt work.. how come?
[10:50] <jenesuispasbavar> NoUse isn't it something like localhost.localdomain <hostname> <some IP>?
[10:50] <skpl> engla: i will try that
[10:50] <ProN00b> linux isn't apple, skpl on linux you only get access to free communistic music !
[10:50] <NoUse> skpl check the restricted formats page
[10:50] <NoUse> !restricted
[10:50] <ubotu> methinks restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[10:50] <rab___> why cant i see my other drive on linux
[10:50] <engla> ProN00b: m4a should be open, m4p is the same format but DRMed
[10:51] <eXistenZ> How can I enabled ksensors to run on startup?
[10:51] <Elazar> bimberi: Yes, but it shows the 1 GB capacity in the main section, not the section for an individual bank.
[10:51] <ProN00b> engla, its apple shit still
[10:51] <Elazar> ompaul: Wow, I did? :P
[10:51] <eXistenZ> s/enabled/enable
[10:51] <NoUse> !language
[10:51] <bimberi> Elazar: hmmk, yep looks like a bug
[10:51] <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.
[10:51] <ProN00b> engla, why use m4* if you don't have an apple
[10:52] <ProN00b> ubotu, ok
[10:52] <ubotu> Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ProN00b
[10:52] <engla> ProN00b: you sure? AAC isn't something apple made themselves.
[10:52] <NoUse> ProN00b he didn't ask for a lecture on audio formats
[10:52] <ompaul> Elazar,  pop your lshw  data into paste.ubuntu-nl.org and we have a look at it there :-)
[10:52] <rab___> why cant i see my other drive on linux
[10:52] <jenesuispasbavar> NoUse: All right, thanks, I'll boot into Linux now
[10:52] <Elazar> ompaul: Alrighty.
[10:52] <engla> ProN00b: just like ogg, m4a is better than mp3. dont' know which of the two first ones are better though
[10:52] <ProN00b> engla, mac osX also, isn't something apple made all themselfes, they just stole bsd
[10:52] <ProN00b> engla, ogg is ofc, its open
[10:52] <NoUse> ProN00b how exactly do you steal an open source chuck of code?
[10:53] <rab___> why cant i see my other drive on linux
[10:53] <mathieu> NoUse: by not respecting the license
[10:53] <NoUse> mathieu my point is that they didn't violate the licence
[10:53] <Zanga> can someone please explain to me how can i burn somthing with ubuntu ??
[10:53] <engla> ProN00b: I know that AAC is not open, it's in the same bin as all the other mpeg stuff
[10:54] <slide> Is there a native linux version of dvd shrink/decryptor? If so where?
[10:54] <ProN00b> NoUse, its not stealing from the legal point of view, since bsd has the bsd license, its still not exactly what i call good morals
[10:54] <bimberi> Zanga: did my method not work?
[10:54] <Zanga> bimberi: i coudent find it
[10:54] <ProN00b> engla, m4 is raw acc ?
[10:54] <engla> ProN00b: can we take this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:54] <nalioth> !offtopic

[11:02] <keherman> I want to make a LOGOUT icon on my desktop, but how?  I can't "Send to Desktop" the LOGOUT icon in my apps menu!
[11:02] <root> Easy question, how do I update all ubuntu manualy?
[11:02] <_Brandon_> hi, a friend of mine have an asus wl-g100 deluxe (pcmcia) but he can't use it under kubuntu
[11:02] <Zanga> bimberi: read it and tell me u`r opinion
[11:02] <keherman> what command is actually being called on LOGOUT?
[11:02] <Isyth> I'm here because I have a problem installing ubuntu 5.10 (I'm running the live cd now). I did all the things and it asked me dozens of questions and when it's finally done and wants to start running, it tells me there's somthing wrong with the X server and I need to reconfigure it. Then it gives me a command line and I have no idea what to do next...
[11:03] <bimberi> Zanga: either burn what you need to cd or work out how to make windows mount the drive (again)
[11:03] <_Brandon_> and cardinfo doesn't display the card
[11:03] <kevin> when I run "sudo apt-get update" I get gzip errors such as: "gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[11:03] <kevin> " and once in a while: "bzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing.", but each time I run the apt-get update it gives those errors at different places, anyone know why?
[11:03] <ircbrowser99> ok that ftpd stuff is up on http://pastebin.com/706159

[11:04] <Tedd> Will the NVidia GO 7300 work on Ubuntu for XGL and Compiz?
[11:04] <Zanga> bimberi: i installed a program "lock my folder" and i locked it and after that i unlocked it and that is when it all started
[11:04] <monomaniacpat> Has anyone here setup wine before? I'm using the howto from the forums, but it has got stuck accessing wineserver...?
[11:05] <kevin> Isyth, you need to be more specific with error messages, it says there's "something" wrong with the x server?
[11:05] <_Brandon_> so anyone could help me?:)
[11:05] <bimberi> Zanga: hmmk, sorry i don't know that program
[11:05] <firebird619> To upgrade ALSA, do I need to download all the files on www.alsa-project.org (driver, library, lib-plugins, utilities, tools, firmware, and OSS Compatibility Library)?
[11:05] <Isyth> yeah I'm not entirely sure, it tells me it's "probably not configured correctly" and it's unable to access it or open it or some verb along those lines.
[11:06] <bimberi> _Brandon_: perhaps a tip here? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[11:06] <dss2> Hmmm, There aren't linux drivers for my WPC54GX4 but there are for WPC54G... it's pretty much the same thing without SRX400... think it would work?
[11:06] <monomaniacpat> Anyone know about wine?
[11:07] <_Brandon_> bimberi: i'll take a look thanks
[11:07] <NoUse> monomaniacpat please give more specific error messages and we can try to give you some help
[11:07] <andyhume> I just ran 'sudo chmod -R 775 ./' in the root directory and now my install is totally broke.
[11:08] <Zanga> i have mounted all my win xp partitions in linux and one of them F: works in linux but it doesent work in xp what can i do ???
[11:08] <andyhume> The system won't run anything that requires root I think .
[11:08] <andyhume> Anything I can do - or am I going to have to reinstall?
[11:08] <gratuit> I'm using dapper, and I want to prevent a certain module from loading on boot, I don't have access to a gui, where does ubuntu store which modules should be loaded? it's not listed in /etc/modules yet is loaded on eac boot
[11:08] <graft> andyhume: probably it's upset about things like your shadow password being readable and such
[11:09] <monomaniacpat> "there is still a wineserver running after 10 seconds waiting. On slow computers or while downloading files this need not mean anything. If you think wine hangs, you may consider killing it on the console by typing wineserver" - this is when I try to set up C: - where is the console I might use?
[11:09] <NoUse> gratuit add the line: blacklist module_name to /etc/modprove.d/blacklist
[11:09] <Isyth> nouse, I pasted what you asked me to in pastebin
[11:09] <skpl> lsyth: sudo dpkg -reconfigure xserver-sorg, i think
[11:09] <gratuit> NoUse: add it to /etc/modules ?
[11:09] <NoUse> Isyth URL?
[11:09] <ircbrowser99> running ftpd on breezy 5.10, looking for some help enabling anonymous ftp access
[11:09] <andyhume> graft: yes - I can't do anything. Not even sure I can boot!
[11:09] <gratuit> oh wait
[11:09] <gratuit> I see
[11:09] <NoUse> gratuit no
[11:09] <graft> andyhume: can you get a root shell?
[11:10] <NoUse> gratuit read what I sent you again
[11:10] <pvd2006> will updating your bios cause any problems with booting into ubuntu?
[11:10] <Isyth> skpl: you think I should type that after it gives me the error or right now?
[11:10] <pvd2006> Ive never done it before and I think its about time, ive had this computer for 4 years and still using the same bios, lol.
[11:10] <andyhume> graft: no. I only have ssh access right now, and I don't seem to be able to boot after a restart now.
[11:10] <skpl> Isyth: type it at the command prompt
[11:10] <Isyth> NoUse: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13655
[11:11] <andyhume> or even ping the server. :(
[11:11] <NoUse> monomaniacpat try running: killall wineserver && killall wine
[11:12] <graft> andyhume: um. so you can login via ssh?
[11:12] <monomaniacpat> NoUse: I can easily close wine, but I get the same problem if I try again... I'll give killall wineserver though
[11:12] <skpl> Isyth: sorry, the command is sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:12] <monomaniacpat> Doesn't give any output or make any visible difference.
[11:13] <andyhume> graft: No. I can't even ping the machine. I don't think it will boot. Unfortunately don't have a monitor to plug in at the moment.
[11:13] <NoUse> monomaniacpat killall doesn't output anythign by default
[11:13] <monomaniacpat> Ho, hang on, it seems to be working now.... hmmm....
[11:13] <graft> andyhume: so what do you mean you have ssh access?
[11:15] <andyhume> graft: sorry. When it was working I only had ssh. Now I have nothing... so I'm not really sure how anyone can help. I guess I'm going to have to get a monitor and check what it actually happening on boot.
[11:15] <monomaniacpat> Does it normally hang when loading the debugger?
[11:15] <NoUse> monomaniacpat yeah, if the debugger loads, wine crashed
[11:15] <graft> andyhume: yeah... and i'd suggest booting with a livecd and mounting your drive, and just fixing /etc/shadow and /etc/gshadow permissions first
[11:16] <NoUse> monomaniacpat what program are you trying to run?
[11:16] <andyhume> Yes, OK. I will try that graft.
[11:16] <monomaniacpat> just trying to set up wine - like c:, cdrom, etc. I'd just entered the username and organisation
[11:16] <graft> andyhume: ssh is not likely to work for keys, since all your /home/*/.ssh directories are going to have bad permissions
[11:16] <andyhume> yep...
[11:16] <NickGarvey> !ping
[11:16] <ubotu> pong
[11:17] <NoUse> monomaniacpat wine sets all that up automatically, in order to use wine you have to run it with a windows exe
[11:17] <monomaniacpat> very funny ubotu
[11:17] <PrimoTurbo> Does anyone know how to do this? Here I posted a thread of what I want - http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=172430
[11:17] <monomaniacpat> NoUse: I was following this howto: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=149585
[11:18] <NoUse> monomaniacpat are you running the internet explorer installer?
[11:18] <monomaniacpat> no, i don't think so
[11:18] <NoUse> monomaniacpat I don't use winetools so I don't know what to tell you
[11:20] <monomaniacpat> NoUse: how did YOU get wine to work?
[11:20] <NoUse> monomaniacpat it sets itself
[11:20] <NoUse> monomaniacpat I install it via apt, then run wine something.exe
[11:20] <monomaniacpat> so once I have wine installed it should just WORK?
[11:20] <NoUse> monomaniacpat yeah
[11:21] <NoUse> monomaniacpat winetools is for getting funky apps like IE to work
[11:21] <monomaniacpat> I see
[11:21] <NoUse> monomaniacpat but I have no desire to have IE anywhere near my machine
[11:21] <monomaniacpat> Me neither, frankly, I was just following that guide
[11:21] <prim> i just installed ubuntu but i didn't set a root password. where is it? :S
[11:22] <Nihil_85> hi everyone! i have a problem: today i mounted an Ati radeon 9550. The drivers installation went allright, but the screen flicks too much. Sometimes i even can't see what's on the monitor. I've setted properly the refresh (1280+1024 @60hz) like the monitor's manual tell to do. So what's the problem?
[11:22] <graft> ubotu tell prim about root
[11:22] <bogdi99> hello :)
[11:22] <monomaniacpat> !rootsudo
[11:22] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[11:22] <Nihil_85> please help me, i'm getting an headache with all this flicks!
[11:23] <graft> Nihil_85: try not specifying refresh rates and letting X guess 'em
[11:23] <iNiku> Nihil_85: 60Hz is quite a slow refresh rate, it's going to flicker a lot
[11:23] <bogdi99> u can't change the refresh rate?!
[11:23] <bogdi99> manual
[11:23] <iNiku> you'll want at least 72Hz, preferably 85Hz or something
[11:23] <jadaz87> what is the terminal command to update the system in ubuntu
[11:23] <jadaz87> ?
[11:23] <Nihil_85> bogdi99: i can change the refresh. 60, 70 or 75hz is the same. a lot of flicker
[11:23] <iNiku> Nihil_85: is it a CRT or LCD?
[11:24] <ircbrowser99> hello, i would appreciate some help with ftpd / pam
[11:24] <Nihil_85> iNiku: i've also tried 70 or 75hz, but it's the same
[11:24] <bogdi99> nichil.. try another resolution
[11:24] <monomaniacpat> graft: you have to enter !topic if you want ubotu to tell a user relevant info
[11:24] <Nihil_85> graft, i've tried the simplified monitor rilevation, but it doesn't work so good...
[11:24] <Nihil_85> iNiku: it's a LCD monitor
[11:24] <bogdi99> nihil.. do you have ubuntu for 64?!
[11:25] <Nihil_85> bogdi99, i have ubuntu for 32. pentium 4 2.66ghz
[11:25] <prim> graft, thanks :)
[11:25] <iNiku> Nihil_85: okay, 60 should be fine then
[11:25] <iNiku> strange
[11:25] <bogdi99> video card?!
[11:25] <ircbrowser99> or if there's a howto to setup any supported ftpd for anonymous ftp access
[11:25] <Nihil_85> iNiku, strange also for me. i bought this videocard today. before i've never had problems like that
[11:26] <graft> Nihil_85: maybe you're blinking too much
[11:26] <ircbrowser99> would appreciate a nudge in the right direction
[11:26] <iNiku> is your display connected via DVI or VGA?
[11:26] <bogdi99> graft.. i don't think so :)
[11:26] <Nihil_85> graft: the monitor is blinking, not me!

[11:26] <Nihil_85> iNiku: i'm connected via VGA
[11:26] <bogdi99> 60Hz it's a low refresh rate..
[11:27] <ircbrowser99> NoUse: got it. thanks.
[11:27] <iNiku> bogdi99: most LCDs work best at 60Hz
[11:27] <Nihil_85> bogdi99: it's the manual one... i think that's right
[11:27] <iNiku> they don't flicker like CRTs do
[11:27] <Isyth> gonna try something, cyall
[11:28] <monomaniacpat> NoUse: do you need IE for anything other than running said browser?
[11:28] <bogdi99> nihil.. but with another resolution... is blinking so much?!
[11:28] <NoUse> monomaniacpat I don't think so

[11:29] <rem_> heyy ppl how can I install a rt2500 pcmcia wifi card, if I started the install with a eth pci card on a atx box ? (Till now i apt-get rt2500.  I have to modprobe the module, but then if I lsmod | grep 2.00 I get the rt2500. But I dont see anything In the noetwork configuration. No ra0 in ifconfig or iwconfig or anywhere i looked .. )
[11:29] <Nihil_85> iNiku, bogdi99: when i try to adjust the monitor settings with its osd, the flickers changes... less or more, but they're always present. Maybe could the card be defective?
[11:29] <Nihil_85> bogdi99: yes, with all resolutions
[11:29] <rem_> Has anyone an idea .. ?
[11:30] <bogdi99> problems with.. drivers...
[11:30] <graft> Nihil_85: is your xorg using DDC?
[11:30] <dli> rem_, you need pcmcia first
[11:30] <rem_> lsmod | grep pcmcia is there ..
[11:30] <Nihil_85> rem_: the rt2500 is well supported. So you only have to install the installer from synaptic. then everything will go in the right place
[11:30] <zim_> hi all
[11:30] <rem_> well...it didnt for me ,, :(
[11:30] <rem_> what installer ?
[11:30] <Nihil_85> graft: i don't know ddc
[11:30] <zim_> what is the date for dapper
[11:31] <NoUse> zim_ june 1
[11:31] <Nihil_85> rem_: i don't know. i'm sorry
[11:31] <zim_> ty
[11:31] <zim_> cant wait
[11:31] <zcat[1] > !dapper
[11:31] <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 :)
[11:31] <Nihil_85> rem_: the installer from the Ralink site (or Canyon) or the installer that you can download via synaptic
[11:32] <zcat[1] > I couldn't wait. Been running dapper for more than a month already :)
[11:32] <Nihil_85> graft: what's DDC?
[11:32] <docta_v> in bash, how can i do substition on multiple words
[11:33] <docta_v> like ^bread^butter but i want to replace every bread and not just the first one that's matched
[11:33] <graft> Nihil_85: um... it autodetects monitor settings
[11:33] <graft> Nihil_85: it's an X module...
[11:33] <graft> Nihil_85: just say 'Load "ddc"' in your Modules section
[11:33] <docta_v> can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere...it's probably partially due to the fact that i don't know how to search for ^ with google
[11:33] <DarkLegacy> Hey :)
[11:33] <graft> Nihil_85: and comment out your HorizSync, etc.
[11:34] <graft> Nihil_85: and maybe it'll do it all automagically
[11:34] <Nihil_85> graft, can we talk in pvt?
[11:34] <graft> Nihil_85: no... i forgot my nickserv password
[11:34] <Nihil_85> graft: foget: i canno ttalk in pvt, i'm not registered
[11:34] <graft> anyway i have to leave :P
[11:34] <Nihil_85> graft, i've already uncommented the hsync and vsync
[11:35] <arrick1> Nihil_85, graft /j #graft to talk in private
[11:35] <DarkLegacy> Guys, is Fedora Core 5 any better than Ubuntu?
[11:35] <graft> Nihil_85: no, COMMENT them out... and Load "ddc" module, then maybe X will recognize your monitor automatically
[11:35] <lutra> DarkLegacy: that's a strange and impossible to answer question
[11:35] <arrick1> no DarkLegacy
[11:35] <DarkLegacy> Ok
[11:35] <graft> also probably use the 'radeon' driver instead of 'ati'
[11:35] <zcat[1] > Fedora is different.. better or worse is subjective
[11:36] <lutra> DarkLegacy: probably we all prefer ubuntu
[11:36] <Nihil_85> graft: reconfigure-xorg auto-recognize the brand of the monitor. Then where i have to write the DDC module? in the xorg.conf?
[11:36] <DarkLegacy> I understand what you mean
[11:36] <lutra> DarkLegacy: me b/c of apt-get
[11:36] <lutra> and i secretly hate RPMs
[11:36] <DarkLegacy> It's probably like asking : Are apples better than oranges?
[11:36] <AlmtyBob> how would I set it up so I can my box in a closet with no monitor/mouse/keyboard but still be able to view Gnome on my XP Pc?
[11:36] <lutra> i guess it's not a secret :)
[11:36] <slackern> DarkLegacy: It's abit like going to a Porsche dealer and asking if a Porsche is better than a Ferrari :)
[11:36] <zcat[1] > I do know lots of fedora users who are moving to ubuntu...
[11:36] <graft> Nihil_85: err.. yeah. someone else can probably help you out with editing your xorg.conf, i have to go... sorry
[11:36] <lutra> i think if you like gnome you should still with ubuntu
[11:36] <lutra> cause i hear it's the choice of a lot of gnome devs
[11:36] <Nihil_85> graft, don't worry, thanks!
[11:37] <DarkLegacy> Heh, opera is great
[11:37] <lutra> s still/stick
[11:37] <DarkLegacy> It highlights everything with my name in it :)
[11:37] <zcat[1] > speaking of apples, in the apple v. apple lawsuit, apple won! (the computer company not the record label..)
[11:37] <zcat[1] > just in case you were interested :)
[11:38] <DarkLegacy> Oh yeah, why is it that Microsoft rips off EVERYTHING from Apple?
[11:38] <lutra> zcat[1] : what about the beatles :(
[11:38] <zcat[1] > half of them are dead anyway..
[11:38] <DarkLegacy> I've noticed over the years, that everything that Windows has, Apple had like two or three years earlier
[11:38] <arrick1> DarkLegacy, how do you think microsoft started out? by stealing his partners designs
[11:38] <lutra> still. . .
[11:38] <DarkLegacy> Arrick, is that really true?
[11:38] <Ven] n^> im using this guide to get my centrino to work properly with dynamic switching.. http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_make_use_of_Dynamic_Frequency_Scaling
[11:38] <arrick1> look it up
[11:38] <DarkLegacy> Because if it is, then Microsoft doesn't deserve a dime
[11:39] <Ven] n^> however.. the sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/ is empty
[11:39] <arrick1> you know the designer was bill gates roommate in college, and then he went on to create tandy
[11:39] <zcat[1] > microsoft started by selling something they didn't own, ripping off the developer that did, and then only licencing it so they got to sell it AND kep it.
[11:39] <DarkLegacy> Wow
[11:39] <arrick1> yeah] 
[11:39] <DarkLegacy> But, they're still doing it today
[11:40] <DarkLegacy> How does that work?
[11:40] <DarkLegacy> OSX is almost identical to Vista
[11:40] <slackern> DarkLegacy: It's the other way around :)
[11:40] <zcat[1] > oh, that's right.. bfore that they implimented basic (which they didn't own) using someone else emulator on stolen mainframe time.
[11:40] <arrick1> gates withheld the info about the guys who would give the money out, and his roommate desolved the partnership when he couldnt get the money
[11:40] <NoUse> DarkLegacy its not called ripping off, in Redmond its called "Innovation"
[11:40] <arrick1> haha
[11:41] <arrick1> it is in the capital too

[11:44] <zcat[1] > are they planning to drop any more features to hit that release date in 2007? Are there any features left to drop that XP doesn't already have?
[11:44] <arrick1> when windows M$ really has a system to match linux I'll be the first to let you know, and I just started using linux in January
[11:44] <zcat[1] > sorry.. offtopic :)

[11:47] <SuperK> hey M5 :)

[11:50] <arrick1> you'll find it on there
[11:50] <Nihil_85> I've also tried 65, 70 and 75Hz of refresh and other resolutions
[11:50] <pvd2006> so I can change it by setting umask 0222?
[11:51] <zcat[1] > yeah, I did.. and I thought I added PLF. I'll try again..
[11:51] <mustard5> SuperK, no..I didnt see it first time..but now you have included my full nick..I see it in red. :)
[11:51] <mustard5> SuperK, how did it go?
[11:51] <Nihil_85> how can i shut off these flickers?
[11:51] <SuperK> I went pear shaped :(
[11:51] <SuperK> it
[11:51] <Mercutio150> Nihil_85 ati conflicts wth ubuntu alot
[11:52] <Mercutio150> best bet is to just swap for a GeForce card
[11:52] <SuperK> So I finally just DL'd and burned the new .iso
[11:52] <mustard5> SuperK, what errors occurred after dist-upgrade?
[11:52] <SuperK> But I do thank you for all you help on Sunday
[11:52] <Nihil_85> Mercutio150, do you have the same problem? how can i solve this? yesterday with another Ati card and the same driver, i hadn't those flickers
[11:53] <SuperK> I saw alot of something about could not set language, a perl warning of some sort
[11:53] <mustard5> SuperK, thats ok..I thought we did a pretty good job of preparing for it...dissapointing that it didnt work :)
[11:53] <Mercutio150> like I told you get a another type of vidcard
[11:53] <mustard5> SuperK, a 'locale' problem?
[11:53] <SuperK> yeah, a quick question though
[11:53] <SuperK> yes
[11:53] <Mercutio150> ati isn't going to work without recoding all of you X11
[11:53] <LinuxJones> Nihil_85: did you install the ati drivers ?
[11:54] <mustard5> SuperK, yeah sure..fire away
[11:54] <zcat[1] > I guess it's safe enough to have the breezy PLF in my dapper sources?
[11:54] <zelinda> hello
[11:54] <moriuntur> @ubotu Thanks! It wasn't directly the prob you describet, but the alsamixer showed me the options i missed in the gnome mixer! Now it works!
[11:54] <spikeb> zcat[1] : i wouldn't think so.
[11:54] <SuperK> Kcontrol will only let me access it by using the console, it's not in any of my menus
[11:54] <ompaul> !!
[11:54] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ompaul
[11:54] <zcat[1] > the dapper penguins are awaiting liberation :(
[11:54] <Mercutio150> I took two weeks trying to make it work,and just wound up slapping a Geforce in it
[11:54] <ompaul> !bot
[11:54] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
[11:54] <Nihil_85> LinuxJones, yes, i did
[11:54] <LinuxJones> zcat[1] : it's not recommended to use those repos
[11:54] <SuperK> I use that alot to change themes etc
[11:54] <zelinda> could someone help me to mont the floppy drive in Ubuntu 5.10?
[11:54] <Nihil_85> LinuxJones, i installed the fglrx drivers via the Ati Installer
[11:55] <cmpalmer> NoUse: there doesn't seem to be one for breezy
[11:55] <Mercutio150> and ran the config and whammy clear screen
[11:55] <cmpalmer> NoUse: link?
[11:55] <NoUse> !lamp
[11:55] <SuperK> and it won't let me put a icon on the desktop
[11:55] <zcat[1] > ahh well, if it breaks I'll keep all the pieces. :)
[11:55] <ubotu> Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, one of the standard internet server installations. Installing LAMP in Ubuntu is fairly straightforward. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[11:55] <SuperK> can I fi that somehow? I am trying to put it in my panel
[11:55] <LinuxJones> Nihil_85: have you tried switching to the vesa driver to see if you still have problems ?
[11:55] <spikeb> hehe
[11:55] <spikeb> zcat[1] : there ya go
[11:55] <Nihil_85> Mercutio150, i can't get another type of videocard cause i bought this one today
[11:55] <SuperK> And I have no idea why it would not be under the system menu
[11:55] <Isyth> So I wrote down what the errors it gives are. First it tells me "Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?"", and after that (I didn't write down the output) it says "The X server is now disabled. Restart GDM when it is configured correctly."
[11:56] <Nihil_85> LinuxJones, i will try.
[11:56] <mustard5> SuperK, hmmm..might be a good question for the #kubuntu channel...I have KDE on my ubuntu install, but I'm on Debian Etch atm..so can't really see my KDE. :)
[11:56] <zim_> has anyone played with ifolders???
[11:56] <zcat[1] > latest compiz update is a bit weird.. all the left-click dialogs are coming up _under_ the windows
[11:56] <arrick1> Isyth, you need to reconfig x
[11:56] <zcat[1] > err rightclick i mean
[11:56] <Mercutio150> I did the same thing Nihil_85
[11:56] <SuperK> What's Etch??
[11:56] <gnomefreak> SuperK: debian unstable
[11:56] <mustard5> SuperK, Etch is the 'testing' version of Debian
[11:57] <mustard5> woops
[11:57] <SuperK> oh, ok
[11:57] <mustard5> hehe
[11:57] <Mercutio150> I wish Ihad just taken the time to return it the first day rather than spend the two weeks I did trying to make it work
[11:57] <mustard5> unstable then
[11:57] <mustard5> I thought unstable was sid :)
[11:57] <Nihil_85> Mercutio150, do you have also a lot of flickers?
[11:57] <Mercutio150> if you have a round hole get a round peg, don't try to pound the square one in
[11:57] <SuperK> Well I know kcontrol is ther but it's a pain to have to use console to get to it all the time
[11:57] <mustard5> I'm still learning all the debian lingo atm
[11:57] <Isyth> arrikl, I tried to do that using "sudo dpkg - reconfigure xserver-xorg"  as someone told me a while ago, but it didn't work.
[11:57] <zcat[1] > sid == unstable, etch == testing
[11:57] <mustard5> who knows what I am on then :D
[11:57] <mustard5> hehehe
[11:58] <Mercutio150> I did,as well as grainy image, dark screen, and lines all through my display
[11:58] <mustard5> some debian install :D
[11:58] <arrick1> Mercutio150, thanks foe the shop class, please stick to ubuntu topics though
[11:58] <arrick1> haha
[11:58] <spikeb> etch is on schedule for release in december
[11:58] <spikeb> amazing
[11:58] <zim_> LXF is raving about them has anyone tried it and will they work on ubuntu
[11:58] <zcat[1] > Isyth: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg     less spaces
[11:58] <gnomefreak> less spaces?
[11:58] <eXistenZ> zcat[1] , is kde faster than gnome?
[11:58] <Mercutio150> so doesanyone have any help on archiving to multiple CD's?
[11:58] <gnomefreak> you need the spaces in there
[11:59] <zcat[1] > not dpkg - reconfigure
[11:59] <gnomefreak> zcat[1] : you didnt type that
[11:59] <zcat[1] > they did..
[11:59] <gnomefreak> you typed it right
[11:59] <gnomefreak> oh
[11:59] <Isyth> zcat(1), you pretty sure that'll work? Because my intuition tells me I need to tell the Xserver what kind of videocard I have or something along those lines.
