[12:00] <amphi> C|int: install ifrename, and read its docs, or just leave it as it is
[12:00] <C|int> i'm on dapper, 7
[12:00] <NoUse> C|int dapper questions are in #ubuntu+1
[12:00] <C|int> me and, anto9us, we had it going though,
[12:01] <ompaul> !dapper
[12:01] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install, or other conversation, dapper will be in this channel from 1st June :-) BUT not until then
[12:01] <C|int> he told me a bunch of commands etc
[12:01] <C|int> ah
[12:01] <Seveas> ooh fun
[12:01] <ompaul> twice
[12:01] <Seveas> net split
[12:01] <Nameless`> common
[12:01] <ompaul> no
[12:02] <Seveas> we're at the good side though
[12:02] <C|int> oh okay, I see, .
[12:02] <Seveas> only 100 left
[12:02] <Nameless`> well i'm off
[12:02] <C|int> interface wlan0 is not configured
[12:02] <Nameless`> got a frigging flu
[12:02] <gnomefreak> hmmm
[12:02] <gnomefreak> thats weird
[12:02] <clarity_> hey, is there a way to install xorgconfig from the install cd?
[12:02] <ompaul> gnomefreak, its just not the usual server going for a hop
[12:03] <arabian> hi all, any body can help me with my fn key on my laptop, it is acts as if it was pressed
[12:03] <gnomefreak> im on clark.freenode and i wasnt part of the net split
[12:03] <amphi> C|int: why are you using wlan0 when you said it was eth0?
[12:03] <C|int> well, you said it had to be wlan0
[12:03] <C|int> I"m now activating it, will see what i get,
[12:03] <nickrud> clarity_, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.conf
[12:03] <C|int> i already got ndiswrapper all going, and driver installed :-)
[12:03] <amphi> C|int: I most certainly did not - I said you could use ifrename if you were insistant that it be called wlan0
[12:03] <nickrud> clarity_, erm sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:03] <C|int> and I loaded my modules too, into the kernel
[12:04] <C|int> oh
[12:04] <gnomefreak> nickrud: ok nm i was gonna ask about the .config
[12:04] <C|int> my bad then, I don't mind if its, eth0
[12:04] <clarity_> that's not the same is it?
[12:04] <vbgunz> I have a deb file. how do I install it using apt-get install? I do not wish to use gdebi
[12:04] <nickrud> gnomefreak, discovered something new, and different today: if a res is not in xorg.conf, gnome's resolution changer doesn't see it. I'd swear it used to
[12:05] <amphi> C|int: whether it's eth0 or eth1 depends on the order its module[s]  and the ethernet iface module are loaded, assuming the ethernet support is a module
[12:05] <gnomefreak> i dont remember it seeing it but never checked
[12:05] <clarity_> yah I'm having trouble with it... I have an odd chipset I think... it's an ati radeon mobile
[12:05] <Sonderblade> is there a way to get services such as mysql or apache to show up in the notification area or otherwise become integrated in the gnome environment?
[12:05] <clarity_> I went through the config and it didn't seem to work...
[12:06] <nickrud> gnomefreak, and also, my bug on apt is nicely fixed: /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list. Easy to work with :)
[12:06] <Arrick> what is a good pc diagnostic utility I can use with the liveCD? I have a computer that wont load an OS no matter what HD I put into it
[12:06] <gnomefreak> lol good
[12:07] <gnomefreak> now if i can find a way around mine ill be happy ;)
[12:07] <jerrybear2k> umm I have a question?
[12:07] <ompaul> we have chanserv
[12:07] <ompaul> unopu
[12:07] <amphi> heh
[12:07] <amphi> jerrybear2k: just ask
[12:07] <ompaul> amphi, mixing up new and old aliases
[12:08] <gnomefreak> grrrr
[12:08] <jerrybear2k> when I got the new version of ubuntu it locks up when it goes into the screensaver or I go into the screensaver settings
[12:08] <ompaul> !dapper

[12:11] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, =) thanks
[12:11] <ompaul> hasan, you do
[12:11] <r0xoR> if i select a gtk1 theme in my control panel my gtk1 and gtk2 apps use the theme
[12:12] <r0xoR> otherwise if i select a gtk2 theme in the theme control panel then only my gtk2 apps use the theme and the gtk1 apps revert to the ugly default
[12:13] <burnout39> does anyone know where i can update my resolution?
[12:13] <hasan> hasan@ubuntu:~$ apt-cache search sega
[12:13] <hasan>  dgen - Sega Genesis/MegaDrive emulator

[12:13] <hasan> this*
[12:13] <nickrud> r0xoR, try installing gtk-theme-switch . It's worked for me in the past, but I haven't used it recently
[12:13] <gnomefreak> hasan: now i have told you 2 times to not paste in here
[12:13] <gnomefreak> hasan: dont do it again
[12:13] <r0xoR> nickrud, k that's waht i just did, haven't used it yet
[12:13] <ompaul> hasan, you can get in synaptic or do >>sudo apt-get install dgen<<
[12:13] <hasan> sorry gnome
[12:14] <rkd> burnout39: System > Preferences > screen Resolution?
[12:14] <nny> whats the program in xfce for auto mounting camera drives?
[12:14] <ompaul> hasan, next time the you will not permitted to converse in the channel for a while
[12:14] <nny> or even gnome
[12:14] <ompaul> okay I have had it good night all
[12:15] <burnout39> i go to the screen resolution and i says i can only use 640x480
[12:15] <hasan> sorry guys...i am new to linux and get frustrated
[12:15] <sibblegp> --without chiding me for it, how do I enable the root user?  :)
[12:16] <nickrud> sibblegp, sudo passd root (consider yourself chided)
[12:16] <rkd> burnout39: Open a terminal, then, run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg', pick a higher resolution, and hit Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to restart X.
[12:16] <sibblegp> nickrud, I've been using linux for 6+ years, I know what I'm doing :P
[12:16] <nickrud> sibblegp, heh
[12:16] <r0xoR> nope
[12:16] <r0xoR> gtk-theme-switch definitely doesn't work
[12:16] <dooglus> sibblegp: you've been using linux for 6 years and don't know the command to change a password?
[12:16] <burnout39> k thanks
[12:17] <manganton> k MangantoN:pw2517
[12:17] <nickrud> r0xoR, then it's in ~/.gtkrc (don't ask me how)
[12:17] <r0xoR> nickrud,  ok
[12:17] <r0xoR> nickrud, that was my second guess :/
[12:17] <r0xoR> heheh oh well
[12:17] <C|int> test
[12:17] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, you have a link to get bonobo and bonobo-activation ?
[12:17] <sibblegp> dooglus:  I wasn't sure how it was disabled in Ubuntu....if the password was just set to something weird, if it was blocked from being logged into, etc.
[12:17] <clarity_> hmm, how do you configure your wifi card?
[12:18] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, the stuff for compiling?
[12:18] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, i guess it is, look:
[12:18] <M3NDIGO>   Also you need :
[12:18] <M3NDIGO>           * gnome-vfs
[12:18] <M3NDIGO>           * libglade
[12:18] <M3NDIGO>           * bonobo-activation
[12:18] <M3NDIGO>           * bonobo
[12:18] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, one line only, please ;(
[12:19] <gnomefreak> M3NDIGO: dont paste please :(
[12:19] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, apt-cache search bonobo | grep dev$

[12:26] <amphi> burnout39: alt-ctrl-f1 ?
[12:26] <On> how can i install amule on ubuntu?
[12:26] <delmar> And can you use your windows Nero CD key for NeroLinux ?
[12:26] <huraxprax> On: shouldn't be any problem, i used it in debian
[12:27] <huraxprax> sudo apt-get install amule
[12:27] <amphi> delmar: dunno, cdrecord works for me
[12:27] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, hm, you're gonna need some more dev libs as well. what are you compiling
[12:27] <nclife> ok, thanks
[12:27] <JackRazz> hey nickrud, I kinda looked at it, but it's a bit wierd.
[12:27] <JackRazz> Is that the only choice you know of?
[12:28] <On> i know but i received this message E: Couldn't find package amule
[12:28] <clarity_> this dist is odd..
[12:28] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, file-roller-2.12.1 so i can open .rar files
[12:28] <huraxprax> On: do you have universe sources enabled?
[12:28] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, homepage is http://fileroller.sourceforge.net
[12:29] <clarity_> nothing works :-\ time o goto debian.
[12:29] <panickedthumb> nevermind about my php problem
[12:29] <panickedthumb> it magically started working
[12:29] <On> i  have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list probabily
[12:29] <FarrisG> Can anyone help me figure out why address autocompletion isn't working for me in Evolution?
[12:29] <huraxprax> yes, uncomment the lines for universe
[12:31] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, ohhhhh. There's a package you install on ubuntu that enables rar, a sec
[12:31] <pianoboy3333> Can someone help me build a deb package? I have the debian directory in the source directory with the correct files, but for somereason, the building fails, the program is notify-python a python module.
[12:31] <panickedthumb> nickrud, unrar?
[12:31] <nickrud> panickedthumb, is that it? I don't use rar myself
[12:31] <lando> I have a question about the network program in /etc/init.d/network
[12:31] <panickedthumb> I'm pretty sure it is
[12:31] <panickedthumb> haven't used it in a while
[12:32] <panickedthumb> I'm checking... takes it a minute to boot up
[12:32] <nickrud> panickedthumb, I think it's unrar-nonfree
[12:32] <panickedthumb> THAT's it
[12:33] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, did you see that last?
[12:33] <panickedthumb> CaptainMorgan, you bring drinks for everyone ;)
[12:33] <lando> while I was trying it out I used the stop command and when I tried to start it back up my nic stopped communicating
[12:33] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, =)), i didint know about that.
[12:33] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, yes
[12:34] <CaptainMorgan> cheers!
[12:34] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, the later rar stuff is not free, that's why you have to install that package
[12:35] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, well thats not good =P
[12:35] <nickrud> no go?
[12:35] <lando> I had to restart the computer just to get the nic card communicating.  does the stop command turn something off that that the start command doesn't turn back on?
[12:35] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, but the package to enable rar on ubuntu is free?
[12:36] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, the wiki says install unrar & unrar-nonfree
[12:36] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, no cost, but not free
[12:36] <panickedthumb> its free as in no price, but not as in Free SOftware
[12:36] <panickedthumb> yeah what nick said
[12:37] <megaman123> how can i get rid of gnome from console ? ..dont want any gui..just console !!
[12:37] <protocol1> !ff1.5
[12:37] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[12:37] <panickedthumb> megaman123, you're a brave soul
[12:37] <kbrooks> free as in beer... :)
[12:38] <amphi> megaman123: heh - just do alt-ctrl-f1 for now
[12:38] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, hum.. you know any other software that work with rar?
[12:38] <megaman123> panickedthumb: no :) i want to run it as htpc...so i dont need anything except the console
[12:38] <nickrud> megaman123, leave gnome installed, there are reasons. But, sudo mv /etc/rc2.d/S13gdm /etc/rc2.d/K13gdm, log out, and hit ctl-alt-backspace :)
[12:38] <kris3> Hi
[12:38] <megaman123> nickrud: what will that do ?
[12:38] <panickedthumb> yeah I agree, it's a good idea to have it installed
[12:38] <amphi> megaman123: you'd be better off to do sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[12:38] <nickrud> megaman123, erm, not reall good advice
[12:39] <panickedthumb> but I like amphi's idea better
[12:39] <panickedthumb> adios guys, dinner time
[12:39] <nickrud> megaman123, or not complete. but removing it doesn't leave a clue about where to put it back to later
[12:40] <nickrud> megaman123, after the mv, go to a console, then /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:40] <amphi> nickrud: you could do it with update-rc.d or just reinstall gdm
[12:40] <megaman123> mmmm :)) i think i still need to leave (again i've been using linux for only a week)
[12:40] <nickrud> amphi, the reinstall, yes.
[12:40] <amphi> megaman123: heh, having only console might be a bit steep in that case
[12:40] <nickrud> megaman123, heh. Just hit ctl-alt-F1 after each boot, leave gnome as a fallback :)
[12:41] <megaman123> acutally i dont have anything attached to the machine right now except my tv and speakers
[12:41] <lando> hi kris3
[12:42] <helpplease> can someone help me? firefox is really being gay
[12:42] <helpplease> its not loading the plug-ins
[12:42] <helpplease> i cant get java to work
[12:43] <megaman123> and i got it to auto login to my user account...but i just need to make it run a couple of programs on start up :S ..still dont know how?
[12:43] <helpplease> i cant get java to work
[12:43] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, oh let me ask you another thing, you know any software for linux to create subtitles for movies? not just link the video file and the subtitles, but write a subtitle
[12:44] <nickrud> megaman123, for starting programs automatically after logging into gnome, system-preferences-session, and the startup tab in the dialog
[12:45] <megaman123> nickrud: thanks
[12:45] <helpplease> hm
[12:45] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, not a freaking clue :)
[12:46] <helpplease> can someone help me with firefox? im downloading java now... i already apt-getted j2re-mozilla-firefox...
[12:46] <megaman123> a very big question..how can i connect to network drives on a windows machine (if possible auto when start up)?
[12:46] <helpplease> ?
[12:47] <helpplease> you meen like sharing stuff from windows to linux?
[12:47] <megaman123> i can use gnome to locate the drive and open movies from my other machine, but i would like to have like a mount or something
[12:47] <helpplease> oh, i have no idea, sorry
[12:47] <nickrud> !samba
[12:47] <ubotu> well, samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[12:47] <nickrud> helpplease, um, what do you mean,  j2re-mozilla-firefox never heard of it
[12:48] <megaman123> nickrud: i have samba, but how can i get there from like console?
[12:48] <lando> this that the java plugin?
[12:48] <lando> is that?
[12:48] <B1zz> you can install a frontend.....
[12:48] <luscas> helpplease,  you must create a symbolic link to it..
[12:48] <nickrud> megaman123, I'd guess the permanently page, but I only toyed with samba a couple of years ago ...
[12:48] <B1zz> i use one called LinNeighborhood
[12:49] <luscas> i suggest you to download the sources...
[12:49] <tag> We use NIS
[12:49] <hasan> I LOVE LINUX
[12:49] <hasan> :)
[12:50] <luscas> helpplease,  http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/java.html#Linux read that..
[12:50] <tag> But I can't get ubuntu to pick it up, it seems.
[12:50] <megaman123> im sorry ..im not following ?!
[12:50] <tag> Right now my autofs map is being loaded over NIS, that's nice, but I need to get NIS working for authentication
[12:50] <tag> and every attempt I have made fails
[12:52] <crazy_penguin> bye all. good night and pleasent dreams.
[12:52] <megaman123> is there a way to give the password in the sudo line ?
[12:52] <autosuggested> Can anyone suggest an app capable of monitoring my server's activity? I'm a bit lazy to be checking through loads of different log files all the time! It's a file server: samba and nfs to the LAN, sftp to the WAN.
[12:53] <njan> megaman123, you can connect to them in nautilus
[12:53] <njan> megaman123, just Open Location and fill in the boxes
[12:53] <njan> megaman123, if you want it automatically mounted somewhere you'll need to edit /etc/fstab
[12:53] <njan> megaman123, http://www.justlinux.com/nhf/Filesystems/Mounting_smbfs_Shares_Permanently.html <= something like that..
[12:53] <nickrud> autosuggested, I used to use logcheck, there are other similar things
[12:54] <autosuggested> nickrud: Cheers, I'll have a look.
[12:54] <nickrud> autosuggested, it looks through your logs, and mails you unusual log entries
[12:54] <megaman123> njan: thanks i'll check it out :))
[12:54] <kbrooks> where's Xnest?
[12:54] <luscas> helpplease, did it help?
[12:55] <nickrud> hidden from the casual user
[12:55] <kbrooks> nickrud: in?
[12:55] <nickrud> kbrooks, package xnest
[12:55] <autosuggested> nickrud: I was thinking more along the lines of something that reports current activity and maybe puts together some usage statistics?
[12:55] <nickrud> kbrooks, I remember reading a devel mail discussion about it
[12:56] <namit> how do i run file manager in gnome as su
[12:56] <namit> ?
[12:56] <nickrud> autosuggested, I'm not sure what does that exactly. but try apt-cache search <keywords>
[12:56] <wims> namit sudo nautilus
[12:56] <buzzed> any thoughts on an Asus laptop and ubuntu?
[12:56] <jonuk> I've been in here to ask this question a couple of times, so my apologies if you've already seen it.  I'm still looking for a standard solution
[12:56] <autosuggested> nickrud: cool, will do.
[12:57] <dli> buzzed: asus is usually friendly with linux, sony should be avoided, if possible
[12:57] <buzzed> thx
[12:57] <dli> jonuk: the way you ask your questions well defines the support you receive
[12:58] <jonuk> I'm on Windows right now.  I have a 40GB hard drive that is completely taken by Windows.  I have a 250GB hard drive with nothing on it that I want to make a small partition on and install Ubuntu 5.10.  When I start the installation, it gets to the "Starting Partitioner" stage and loads to 100% and then the screen goes blank.  If I hit Ctrl+C, it starts loading again and hangs at 52% everytime.  Any suggestions?
[12:58] <jonuk> Both hard drives are IDE
[12:59] <namit> My resolution is very low is there better device manager to use for gnome just my res is very low and want to update drivers
[12:59] <lando> what is the device name of the drive that u are installing on?
[12:59] <dli> namit: tried ubuntu fixres ?
[01:00] <M3NDIGO> nickrud, uheuehu ok! thanks a lot for helping me man!! =)
[01:00] <jonuk> I have already checked the md5 of the ISO, it checked out find
[01:00] <nnn0> jonuk, you could try disconnectiong the windows drive while installing
[01:00] <jonuk> fine
[01:00] <nickrud> M3NDIGO, yw
[01:00] <jonuk> nnn0...yes, I have done that.  It works when I do that.  So really, I could install it that way and be fine.
[01:00] <nickrud> jonuk, did you check the md5sum of the burn?
[01:00] <namit> fixres?
[01:00] <jonuk> however, i was hoping to leave both conected so that the dual boot setup would be easier
[01:00] <dli> !fixres
[01:00] <ubotu> Help to fix the display resolution is available at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[01:00] <nnn0> k
[01:01] <buzzed> are there laptops that can be bought without an os or with linux installed?
[01:01] <nickrud> jonuk, nm, sorry
[01:01] <l_> can someone tell me how to install a system sound theme in gnome?
[01:01] <pianoboy3333> Does anyone here build debian packages?
[01:01] <nickrud> l_, do you have one? I haven't seen one yet
[01:01] <jonuk> It's odd that when the Windows drive is unplugged, the partitioner is able to load
[01:01] <dli> buzzed: of the top brands, asus is the only one offers white books (i.e., no pre-installed OS)
[01:01] <Tuzlo> is there a POP3 package in Ubuntu thats decently preconfigged?
[01:01] <buzzed> wow
[01:01] <nnn0> nothing odd with windows is odd :D
[01:02] <megaman123> is there a way to make my login automatically with root instead of other user (root does not show in the menu)?
[01:02] <pianoboy3333> megaman123: you don't want to login as root
[01:02] <dli> buzzed: all top laptops are asian now, thinkpad, asus fujitsu
[01:02] <pianoboy3333> megaman123: that is very, very, bad
[01:02] <eggzeck> megaman123: seriously, why would you want to do that
[01:03] <nnn0> :)
[01:03] <dli> buzzed: thinkpad has good linux support too
[01:03] <Tuzlo> login in as root is not a good idea
[01:03] <Tuzlo> su over
[01:03] <megaman123> its an isolated machine only running a single program :)
[01:03] <nickrud> megaman123, oh, baaaaad idea :)
[01:03] <nnn0> :)
[01:03] <megaman123> its not doing anything else (basically a satelite reciever)
[01:03] <amphi> megaman123: so why log in at all?
[01:03] <Tuzlo> yeah
[01:03] <buzzed> i like the tp t43p, but may need to find something cheaper...
[01:03] <Tuzlo> you dont need to login to run services
[01:04] <megaman123> i still dont know how to load vdr without logging in :)
[01:04] <megaman123> Tuzlo: yes
[01:04] <dli> buzzed: either asus or fujitsu can be much cheaper, check dell
[01:05] <jonuk> so any suggestions at all? anyone?
[01:05] <amphi> megaman123: create an init script for it in /etc/init.d, and make symlinks at least for the default runlevel
[01:05] <jonuk> besides unplugging the windows drive
[01:05] <dli> buzzed: I heard dell plans for better linux support too
[01:05] <rkd> megaman123: I think if you have a blank password, sudo works automatically (i.e. no password entry), so try doing that.
[01:05] <megaman123> amphi: im really not that suffisticated :)) if you could explain abit mor eplz
[01:05] <protocol1> !ff1.5
[01:05] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[01:06] <megaman123> rkd: thats a good idea :)))
[01:06] <zcat[1] > http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/capable.mspx   - curious, it looks like ass in firefox. Anyone else want to check?
[01:06] <rkd> megaman123: Is it a console system?
[01:06] <amphi> megaman123: in short, make it start like any other server
[01:06] <megaman123> rkd: yes
[01:06] <nnn0> etc/services
[01:06] <eggzeck> zcat[1] : ...
[01:06] <nickrud> zcat[1] , since I only use firefox, it looks normal to me :)
[01:07] <rkd> megaman123: Try making the login shell for your user "/usr/bin/sudo /bin/sh".
[01:07] <zcat[1] > ahh.. there's a big flash thing through the middle of the page!! You probably have flash dissable?
[01:07] <rkd> megaman123: (but make a backup user in case that breaks everything)
[01:07] <nickrud> zcat[1] , yes, flashblock
[01:07] <toast> anybody knows why I can only get my wireless pcmcia card to work after doing a system suspend?
[01:07] <zcat[1] > hafta install that here..
[01:08] <Ademan> OH MY GOD
[01:08] <megaman123> rkd: i didn't get that part ? login to shell ??
[01:08] <Ademan> !!!!!!!
[01:08] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Ademan
[01:08] <pianoboy3333> !!
[01:08] <ubotu> pianoboy3333: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:08] <zim> hi all is there any chance of ifolders making it to a repos any time soon ???
[01:09] <rkd> megaman123: Don't worry, then.
[01:09] <zim> just look at the site it looks the mutts nuts
[01:09] <Ademan> zcat[1] : HOLY CRAP!!! dapper worked on my laptop!!!
[01:09] <zcat[1] > running dapper on my old 500Mhz dell .. have been for more than a month already :)
[01:10] <amphi> megaman123: use another script in /etc/init.d as a template - it's not rocket surgery ;)
[01:10] <Ademan> nearly 2 months of work rendered useless by a BETA release of ubuntu :-p
[01:10] <zim> ok has anyone played/hear of ifolders
[01:10] <mboyle> I just installed breezy badger on my powermac g4, when I login (presumably to a gnome session) all I get is a screen with a brown background and the cursor... nothing loads. Any thoughts?
[01:10] <Ademan> and by work i really mean banging my head against the wall
[01:10] <kbrooks> someone help :-)
[01:10] <Arrick> !ask
[01:10] <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.
[01:10] <rkd> zcat[1] : How do you get it installed on such an old comp? Gnome is unusable on my 550Mhz AMD K6-II.
[01:10] <Ademan> kbrooks: ask a question :-p
[01:10] <amphi> Ademan: be glad it's over ;)
[01:11] <Arrick> wtf?
[01:11] <kbrooks> how do i start gdm on X display 1
[01:11] <nickrud> rkd, megaman123 no, if you want to give a user no password access to sudo , do sudoedit & add the line <usrname> ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD:  ALL
[01:11] <zcat[1] > It's fast enough for me.. not exactly blindingly fast but I didn't expect that.
[01:11] <kbrooks> I dont think i can
[01:11] <kbrooks> gdm :1
[01:11] <kbrooks> am i right?
[01:11] <rkd> nickrud: Oh, right. I was basing my guess off how the LiveCD worked.
[01:11] <nickrud> kbrooks, switch users from the lock screen
[01:12] <amphi> kbrooks: gdm -- :1 ? guessing, I don't use a ?dm
[01:12] <Ademan> 550mhz its pretty damn slow by today's standards
[01:12] <nickrud> rkd, neither am I, that's my old debian thing before I got smarter
[01:12] <zcat[1] > afk, sue wants the computer..
[01:12] <Arrick> anyone want a computer?
[01:13] <zim> ok as my post just hit the roof has anyone played with ifolders if not have a look at http://www.ifolder.com/ WOW and now for my nest Q when will we see a .deb
[01:13] <nickrud> Arrick, sure. Shipping paid, of course :)
[01:13] <kbrooks> can someone help?
[01:13] <Arrick> I got a Asus P5A with a AMD -k6-2/500AFX processor
[01:13] <Arrick> nickrud,
[01:13] <amphi> ifolder has a most appley ring to it
[01:14] <zim> amphi have a look
[01:14] <zim> if it does what it says WOW
[01:14] <Arrick> for some reason I cant get an os to load all the way onto a hd and then run (even ubuntu) although livecd will load, and not access the HDS
[01:14] <tag> anyone use NIS?
[01:15] <Arrick> yeah it sucks
[01:15] <nickrud> Arrick, ship it to me, I'll play around, let you know how it wnet
[01:15] <Arrick> you paying the shipping nickrud ?
[01:15] <tag> Arrick: how do I make it work though?
[01:15] <Arrick> dont ask me
[01:15] <nickrud> rflol, 500 k6
[01:15] <argpirate> so why would the libvisual package be avaliable but not the libvisual-plugin package?
[01:15] <argpirate> any reason?
[01:15] <Arrick> yeah
[01:15] <megaman123> nickrud: i should add ALL=NOPASSWD ?
[01:15] <nickrud> Arrick, so how's it hangin' ?
[01:15] <Arrick> crappy
[01:16] <buzzed> is this a good deal? http://www-131.ibm.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/PromotionDisplay?promoId=1074814428&catalogId=-840&storeId=10000001&langId=-1
[01:16] <brian_1> Hi guys,
[01:16] <Shadyman> Hey all
[01:16] <Shadyman> Did ya miss me?
[01:16] <nickrud> megaman123, I'm pretty sure (but not totally) that that's the exact line, spaces included
[01:16] <Arrick> I wanted to run a ubuntu server next to my winserv03, and I cant get this doggone thing going
[01:16] <salah> hi. how do I repair apt? the package system is broken
[01:16] <megaman123> nickrud: ok will try
[01:16] <Shadyman> salah: Define "broken"

[01:16] <amphi> zim: multiple copies of everything?
[01:16] <zim> yup
[01:16] <Shadyman> ubotu: tell XpCrash about Restricted-Formats
[01:17] <zim> backup with no maintainace
[01:17] <Shadyman> salah: try apt-get refresh
[01:17] <zim> easy colo
[01:17] <amphi> zim: why not just a file server and sshfs or whatever?
[01:17] <kbrooks> Xlib: connection to ":1.0" refused by server
[01:17] <kbrooks> Xlib: No protocol specified
[01:17] <kbrooks> (gnome-session:10726): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :1
[01:17] <XpCrash> i did that al;lready installed the codec package and still no wmv files wont play
[01:17] <Shadyman> ubotu: tell XpCrash about Restricted Formats
[01:17] <zim> u missed the point
[01:17] <kbrooks> xhost +localhost doesnt wiek
[01:17] <kbrooks> work* fuck
[01:18] <zim> its like rsync but on steroids and cross platform
[01:18] <kbrooks> oops language
[01:18] <amphi> !tell XpCrash about restrictedformats
[01:18] <Ademan> is there an easy way to UNINSTALL programs in a way similar to the install programs GUI? i could just use synaptic though...
[01:18] <Shadyman> amphi: already did :)
[01:18] <nickrud> kbrooks, try startx -- :1 , put something in .xinitrc
[01:18] <salah> Shadyman, when im trying to install any application with apt, I get a message "unmet depencies" and it says I should do "apt-get -f install", but when I do that, the package system wants to remove all of my packages
[01:18] <Shadyman> ademan: synaptic, usually
[01:18] <helpplease> bye
[01:18] <helpplease> i hate my computer
[01:18] <Shadyman> salah: Hmm
[01:18] <helpplease> firefox doesnt work
[01:18] <redguy> !tell hymek about upgrade
[01:18] <helpplease> at all ever never
[01:18] <Shadyman> helpplease: You must have an intel
[01:18] <helpplease> yes
[01:18] <XpCrash> i have done all that allready
[01:18] <helpplease> HOW DID YOU KNOW?
[01:18] <Shadyman> No comment.
[01:19] <tag> FUCK!
[01:19] <Ademan> Shadyman: just guessed
[01:19] <tag> I just hozed my nsswitch.conf
[01:19] <Shadyman> *turns off his /bias*
[01:19] <helpplease> lol.
[01:19] <tag> how do I fix that/
[01:19] <Tuzlo> frig I cant get a pop3 to run at all
[01:19] <helpplease> ihate my computer so much
[01:19] <zim> has anyone had any dealings with ifolders
[01:19] <Shadyman> tag: That's not too bad. I nerfed my DHCP3 folder.
[01:19] <kbrooks> nickrud: "X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting."
[01:19] <nickrud> helpplease, just exactly what are you trying to do, get java working in firefox
[01:19] <tag> that's not nearly as bad
[01:19] <Ademan> helpplease: instead of hating your computer, why not try and fix the problem?
[01:19] <coldfyre> what what cause the mounting on local filesystems to fail on boot?
[01:19] <kbrooks> tag: language
[01:19] <tag> Shadyman: I can no longer sudo.
[01:19] <zim> i am about to have a play but want any tips beforte hand
[01:19] <nickrud> kbrooks, hm.
[01:19] <Shadyman> tag: Ew-do.
[01:19] <helpplease> firefox plugins not working at all. opera keeps blocking certain files from my account so i have to sudo it for it to work and thats gay
[01:20] <coldfyre> on=of*
[01:20] <Shadyman> tag: try setting your root password? (the root of all evil)
[01:20] <nickrud> helpplease, and language to you too :)
[01:20] <Shadyman> tag: I'm sure there's instructions on the wiki somewhere.
[01:20] <megaman123> how can i edit ftasb from console ?
[01:20] <tag> I think I know what to do
[01:20] <Ademan> firefox plugins... which plugins are you trying to use?
[01:20] <XpCrash> do i have to install totem xine
[01:20] <nickrud> megaman123, sudo nano /etc/fstab
[01:20] <tag> hahah this was a bad idea
[01:20] <kbrooks> nickrud: xhost +localhost doesnt work
[01:20] <Shadyman> salah: Have you tried apt-get update?
[01:20] <megaman123> nickrud: thanks :)
[01:20] <salah> Shadyman, yes and apt-setup
[01:20] <helpplease> java
[01:20] <nickrud> kbrooks, I'm talking about running that from a console
[01:20] <Terminus> XpCrash: totem-xine typically works better than the gstreamer backend in my experience.
[01:20] <Shadyman> salah: Hmm
[01:20] <helpplease> im trying to use java plugins
[01:21] <helpplease> i did some thing
[01:21] <mboyle> gnome doesn't load on my powermac g4... i login and get a brown screen with a cursor in the middle. what could be going wrong?
[01:21] <kbrooks> nickrud: i did. ;)
[01:21] <helpplease> with libjava plugin and my mozillafirefox directory i cant remeber
[01:21] <jonuk> Are there any other ubuntu channels on IRC?
[01:21] <Ademan> why not GOOGLE for how to make java plugins work with firefox on linux?
[01:21] <Shadyman> salah: what do you mean by "all your packages"? like, all 17,000 of them?
[01:21] <salah> helpplease, search for a package named mozilla-jre or something, that works well with firefox too
[01:21] <kbrooks> Ademan:
[01:21] <crimsun> jonuk: nearly too numerous to count.
[01:21] <kbrooks> !java
[01:21] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[01:21] <amphi> mboyle: can you get to a VT? (alt-ctrl-f1)
[01:21] <Terminus> helpplease: the canonical way to install sun java is by using java-package.
[01:21] <argpirate> hrm
[01:21] <mboyle> amphi: yeah
[01:22] <jonuk> crimsun: can you give me another popular one mabe?
[01:22] <Terminus> helpplease: or you can settle for the blackdown release. :)
[01:22] <argpirate> so does anyone know how to get projetM/libvisual plugins rokcing/
[01:22] <jonuk> maybe
[01:22] <mboyle> amphi: now what?
[01:22] <Arrick> well now I gotta talk to dell support about a laptop cord
[01:22] <salah> Shadyman, like all openoffice, all gnome, all vlc, a lot of libs, gnome-*, and it even wants to remove apt
[01:22] <Ademan> by the way, doesnt anyone know why my mouse "falls alseep" (its a wireless, and it didnt do that under windows)
[01:22] <Tuzlo> is there anything in Ubuntu that would be stopping POP3 from running?
[01:22] <Arrick> good lord will she ever stop breaking crap?
[01:22] <XpCrash> i did what on the restricted formats page told me to do and totem-xine didnt install
[01:22] <Shadyman> salah: Oh.
[01:22] <amphi> mboyle: indeed ;) at least it's only X/gnome misbehaving
[01:22] <gercel> Does anyone know how to patch WARCRAFT 3 to 1.20 under WINE?
[01:22] <XpCrash> tell dell to blow you thats what iwould do
[01:22] <scabootssca> Hello all is this the right place to ask a question on how to use ubuntu?
[01:23] <helpplease> damit i ahve to fix later i have to go to friends graduation...
[01:23] <Terminus> XpCrash: what was the error message? apt-get install totem-xine should work.
[01:23] <Shadyman> salah: Can you apt-get apt?
[01:23] <Shadyman> scabootssca: Sure
[01:23] <mboyle> amphi: do you know where to look to figure it out?
[01:23] <salah> gercel, you should use cedega for any games under linux
[01:23] <mboyle> amphi: X loaded the login screen and everything
[01:23] <mboyle> amphi: so is it gnome?
[01:23] <nickrud> kbrooks, I did echo gnome-session > .xinitrc && startx -- :1 and got gnome
[01:23] <PhoenixP3K> scabootssca, the wiki is the best place to look first
[01:23] <XpCrash> ok ill try apt-get , it just said in shell no package installed , and so and so
[01:23] <amphi> mboyle: could be - I agree, it sounds like X is ok
[01:23] <salah> Shadyman, "E: Invalid operation apt" when trying type "apt-get apt"
[01:23] <scabootssca> link please?
[01:23] <Ademan> EW dapper's terminal defaults to a gross black on white scheme
[01:23] <Terminus> XpCrash: 'sudo apt-get install totem-xine'
[01:24] <jonuk> Would someone mind giving me the name/server of another Ubuntu channel?
[01:24] <PhoenixP3K> scabootssca, then there are the ubuntu forums, but we won't spit at you if you ask here :)
[01:24] <Shadyman> salah: try apt-get install apt, or apt-get upgrade apt, etc?
[01:24] <kbrooks> jonuk: #ubuntu-bugs
[01:24] <kbrooks> jonuk: #ubuntupeople
[01:24] <jonuk> kbrooks? on freenode?
[01:24] <amphi> mboyle: I don't use gnome; you could try from the command line 'xinit -- :1' and see if X starts with an xterm properly
[01:24] <kbrooks> jonuk: all of them are.
[01:24] <Terminus> XpCrash: after that, get the w32codecs package from marillat, and 'sudo dpkg -i <w32codecs_file>'
[01:24] <XpCrash> just tried that Package totem-xine has no installation candidat
[01:24] <jonuk> thank so much
[01:24] <salah> Shadyman, I get the same message, libstdc++6 needs some unmet depencies
[01:24] <mboyle> amphi: that worked fine
[01:25] <unfo> XpCrash: try totem-gstreamer or gxine instead.
[01:25] <Tuzlo> add some sources XpCrash
[01:25] <XpCrash> ive done the dumping of the w32 codec allready
[01:25] <salah> Shadyman, the problem is the libstdc++6, it needs some packages I don't have
[01:25] <kbrooks> !marillat
[01:25] <ubotu> marillat is, like, If you enable the marillat repoistories, please disable them after you use them as needed. don't overuse them. Consider using !plf or !seveas instead
[01:25] <alan`>  /away
[01:25] <amphi> mboyle: what happens if you type 'gnome-session' in that term (or whatever the gnome startup command is) ?
[01:25] <Shadyman> salah: try unmarking libstdc++6 in synaptic?
[01:25] <XpCrash> ill be back soon have to eat so my brain doesnt crash
[01:25] <XpCrash> cause now my mental ping is high
[01:25] <Terminus> XpCrash: must be your sources. totem-xine is in universe.
[01:25] <cusco_> hi...
[01:26] <Shadyman> cusco_: Hi...
[01:26] <unfo> XpCrash: good idea then :)
[01:26] <XpCrash> ok
[01:26] <jonuk> I'm on Windows right now.  I have a 40GB hard drive that is completely taken by Windows.  I have a 250GB hard drive with nothing on it that I want to make a small partition on and install Ubuntu 5.10.  When I start the installation, it gets to the "Starting Partitioner" stage and loads to 100% and then the screen goes blank.  If I hit Ctrl+C, it starts loading again and hangs at 52% everytime.  Any suggestions?
[01:26] <cusco_> what happend tot he package amarog-gstreamer in dapper?
[01:26] <XpCrash> like an aol lama BRB
[01:26] <Shadyman> jonuk: Which version?
[01:26] <unfo> jonuk: do you have 2 computers?
[01:26] <Terminus> !seveas
[01:26] <ubotu> Seveas has a semi-popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[01:26] <jonuk> 5.10
[01:26] <cusco> amarok-gstreamr
[01:26] <cusco> err
[01:26] <cusco> amarok-gstreamer
[01:26] <jonuk> unfo: no, just 2 hard drives on 1 computer
[01:27] <unfo> Terminus: type this: /msg ubotu easyubuntu
[01:27] <PhoenixP3K> jonuk, what I prefer doing is partitioning under windows first
[01:27] <Shadyman> jonuk: try disconnecting the windows part for the installation
[01:27] <unfo> jonuk: can i ask, either, what city are you in, or, how many people live in your city?
[01:27] <Shadyman> unfo: I've never heard that one before.
[01:27] <unfo> LUGs
[01:27] <salah> Shadyman, then I still have to remove all packages I have installed
[01:27] <Shadyman> unfo: Oh
[01:27] <Terminus> unfo: i was just checking what the alternatives to marillat are. maybe i'm a masochist but i still install all of the non-free stuff manually. :)
[01:28] <Shadyman> salah: Darn.
[01:28] <Tuzlo> anyone available with POP3 Knowledge?
[01:28] <unfo> Tuzlo: many people here
[01:28] <Shadyman> salah: That's weird. i'd search the bug logs first
[01:28] <kbrooks> Tuzlo: ask. don't meta ask. just ask.
[01:28] <salah> Shadyman, maybe it's easier if I take backup and reformat the computer?
[01:29] <Shadyman> salah: Probably. What version are you running?
[01:29] <PhoenixP3K> Tuzlo, besides the fact that it has to do with email :p
[01:29] <Tuzlo> I cant seem to get a pop3 server (teapop or qpopper) to run
[01:29] <salah> Shadyman, im running 5.10
[01:29] <unfo> Shadyman: kbrooks: Terminus: i suppose i lost him with that question?
[01:30] <Shadyman> unfo: Yes.
[01:30] <unfo> sucks.
[01:30] <amphi> nickrud: ;)
[01:30] <unfo> next time i'll give the canonical answer "search Google for a Linux User Group in your city for help with complicated installation problems."
[01:30] <Terminus> Tuzlo: i've only been able to install a pop3 server once. i used uw-imap but it uses inetd. should be real easy if you don't really have a high load on your box though.
[01:30] <Shadyman> salah: I guess so. that'd probably be the easiest fix.
[01:31] <Tuzlo> Terminus: is it packaged?
[01:31] <nickrud> unfo, heh. Last time I asked I got 'ubuntu, ick'
[01:31] <unfo> at a LUG?
[01:31] <amphi> Tuzlo: apt-cache search pop3d should turn up a few
[01:31] <Tuzlo> and can Imap be retrieved by clients like evolution?
[01:31] <Kyral> lol
[01:31] <nickrud> unfo, yup. Of course, they were fedorites, all
[01:32] <Kyral> Yah people say the same of me (calling me a newbie)
[01:32] <unfo> Tuzlo: can I ask: why do you want to install a mail server? for yourself or others? mail administration is very hard. and there are other options.
[01:32] <Tuzlo> amphi: problem is pop3 related
[01:32] <Terminus> Tuzlo: yes, it's packaged. it's the simplest imap/pop3 server i've come across but people advise against using it for mission critical stuff.
[01:32] <Kyral> until I point out I maintain a package in Debian Sid :P
[01:32] <Shadyman> Hey, i saw a guy today at the mall on a laptop with a big honkin Ubuntu sticker on the front. I peeked over his shoulder and he was actually using it. So it can't be THAT "ick".
[01:32] <rightcoast> Damn my LUG is mostly Debian/Ubuntu
[01:32] <Tuzlo> unfo: for my local lan
[01:32] <Terminus> Tuzlo: it's in universe/uw-imapd
[01:32] <Tuzlo> Terminus: kk
[01:32] <amphi> Kyral: heh
[01:32] <unfo> Tuzlo: how many users?
[01:32] <nickrud> dovcote for newbies, please
[01:32] <Tuzlo> unfo: less than a dozen
[01:33] <Tuzlo> unfo: closed relay
[01:33] <dashriKe> merpfl
[01:33] <Kyral> I am quite interested by Symphony OS's latest release...
[01:33] <unfo> Tuzlo: oh. if closed relay i stand corrected then. :)
[01:33] <Tuzlo> unfo: well, I shoulda said relayng thru my ISP
[01:33] <unfo> Tuzlo: just know that mail is hard.
[01:33] <Tuzlo> unfo: I know, I've always had issues
[01:34] <Terminus> unfo: configuring sendmail without the benefit of m4? =D
[01:34] <Tuzlo> Just lookin for something so I can collect the mail, the smtp side is workin fine
[01:34] <unfo> Tuzlo: you could always write classified ads and hire a mail admin... :) just kidding
[01:34] <dashriKe> anywhere I could find a list or something of "comparable programs", ie windows equivalents?
[01:34] <Tuzlo> unfo: LOL
[01:34] <unfo> dashriKe: ask us
[01:34] <Tuzlo> brb
[01:34] <amphi> Tuzlo: popa3d is pretty simple
[01:35] <nickrud> Tuzlo, a seemingly knowledgeable guy wrote https/wiki.ubuntu.com/Postfix
[01:35] <unfo> dashriKe: there may be, but I am an open source software tester and have been around the web and I still don't know one.
[01:35] <dashriKe> I am considering switching entirely as windows is being stupid
[01:35] <unfo> someone really should make such a website if none exists.
[01:35] <Shadyman> dashriKe: Nice!
[01:35] <Shadyman> dashriKe: Windows likes to do that.
[01:35] <rkd> dashriKe: http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html maybe?
[01:35] <nickrud> but I don't think it had pop. Someone who'd answer that classified ad should do the freebie
[01:36] <dashriKe> my ethernet drivers uninstall themselves after an hour of uptime
[01:36] <unfo> dashriKe: how much time do you have left currently?
[01:36] <unfo> :)
[01:37] <scabootssca> my modem isnt supported by ubuntu got any ideas of what to beside gtting a new one?
[01:37] <dashriKe> dunno
[01:37] <dashriKe> also, ubuntu does not get any ethernet activity at all, and I am not proficient enough to fix it
[01:37] <dashriKe> anybody want to send me a not-POS mobo?
[01:37] <amphi> dashriKe: this may be of use perhaps: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg246380.html
[01:38] <unfo> dashriKe: you need a LUG's free help.
[01:38] <unfo> !freecycle
[01:38] <ubotu> unfo: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:38] <Tuzlo> nickrud: postfix is workin and sending mail, my problem is retrieving it
[01:38] <scabootssca> and when you are using the live cd is there any way to get to your windows files?
[01:38] <Shadyman> dashriKe: I would, but i'm busy using it.
[01:38] <dashriKe> I <3 freecycles
[01:38] <dashriKe> unfortunately, they rarely give decent PC parts
[01:38] <Shadyman> scabootssca: Yes.
[01:38] <coldfyre> why would /dev/input not show up when booted, but it wiill when booted from a live cd or read from windows?
[01:39] <Shadyman> scabootssca: It's under System > Administration I think, called Gnome Disk Manager or something like that.
[01:39] <nickrud> Tuzlo, if you drop the mail into a Maildir in your home dir, dovecot-pop3 is supposed to be simple, and as an added bonus, it's in main
[01:39] <Terminus> dashriKe: re: windows equivalents, maybe this list will help you --> http://www.theopencd.org/programs
[01:39] <unfo> !freecycle is a set of mailing lists where you can give away things (including old hardware) for free or get things for free.
[01:39] <ubotu> unfo: okay
[01:39] <scabootssca> Shadyman, ok i'll try that
[01:40] <Munchkinguy> I know there's a package called "gtk2-engines-gtk-qt" that makes gtk apps look like qt...
[01:40] <Shadyman> scabootssca: It should list your drives that are connected, and allow you to see where they're located in the filesystem
[01:40] <Munchkinguy> ...but is there one for the other way around?
[01:40] <unfo> !freecycle is a set of mailing lists where you can give away things (including old hardware) for free or get things for free. Visit it at http://www.freecycle.org
[01:40] <ubotu> unfo: okay
[01:40] <Shadyman> !freecycle
[01:40] <ubotu> hmm... freecycle is a set of mailing lists where you can give away things (including old hardware) for free or get things for free. Visit it at http://www.freecycle.org
[01:40] <Tuzlo> nickrud: mail is goin to /var/spool/mail/ by default
[01:42] <Munchkinguy> In other words, is there a package I can download that makes QT apps look like native GTK apps?
[01:42] <unfo> Shadyman: i /msg'ed it to forget to prevent spamming.
[01:42] <unfo> that was why. :)
[01:42] <Shadyman> unfo: Aha.
[01:42] <Shadyman> unfo: I had to check ;)
[01:42] <mick_> can anyone take some time and help me figure out video drivers?
[01:42] <unfo> !justask
[01:42] <ubotu> - Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[01:42] <nickrud> Tuzlo, mail is hard :)
[01:43] <Tuzlo> nickrud: aye
[01:43] <unfo> actually, i guess anything 2 way is hard. also usenet, and setting up wikis...
[01:43] <Shadyman> unfo: and setting up a YAMP
[01:43] <unfo> well, setting up MediaWiki is easy but adding anti-spam is harder.
[01:43] <unfo> !yamp
[01:43] <ubotu> unfo: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:43] <mick_> how do i enable dual monitors on a 9800pro?
[01:43] <sylvan> Hey, I'm trying to install that new Compiz thing... The howto (http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=131253) says to open gconf-editor and go to apps/compiz/... but I find no "compiz" under apps..
[01:43] <unfo> mick_: dual monitors is hard.
[01:44] <unfo> mick_: i personally don't know.
[01:44] <protocol1> !java
[01:44] <sylvan> (dapper btw)
[01:44] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[01:44] <filip_> could someone help me figure out why i have a big gap in my systray? pic here: http://godd.no-ip.org/upload/files/snapshot3.png
[01:44] <mick_> unfo, it is the one thing that makes me want to keep booting to xp
[01:44] <cold`ltop> why would /dev/input not show up when booted, but it wiill when booted from a live cd or read from windows?
[01:44] <unfo> filip_: did you try rebooting your computer? no joke.
[01:44] <Shadyman> unfo: You've got to be joking./
[01:44] <nickrud> heh. linux is easy, but everything else is hard :)
[01:44] <unfo> Shadyman: i am not.
[01:45] <Shadyman> nickrud: Yeah. Linux loads. Everything else is the stuff that gives problems :)
[01:45] <unfo> Shadyman: ok, fine
[01:45] <filip_> no no no... its fine when i reboot, but i switched from windows so that i don't have to reboot everyday
[01:45] <unfo> filip_: Shadyman is right.
[01:45] <unfo> filip_:  did you try logging out and in again?
[01:45] <Shadyman> unfo: told ya.
[01:45] <filip_> didn't try that, no.
[01:45] <Tuzlo> hmmm, mails comin back, its in the mail dir
[01:46] <Shadyman> unfo: ;)
[01:46] <Terminus> filip_: maybe you have systray apps that don't have icons? i get a blank with azureus here. :)
[01:46] <filip_> nothing to dbl click between the icons
[01:47] <nickrud> Tuzlo, I had a very fine mail system that I carefully crafted; then I switched to ubuntu, and realized, 'I didn't remember a thing about what I did!' ARG
[01:47] <unfo> Shadyman: it does help for some things. for example, I once messed up abiword by uninstalling it then quitting then reinstalling it. I had to reboot to fix it.
[01:47] <filip_> and azureus isn't open... even when it is, when i mouseover, it gives me a tooltip
[01:47] <Shadyman> unfo: Couldn't just switch to runlevel 1 and then back again?
[01:47] <Shadyman> unfo: Though maybe that's too complicated for most. Reboot is less painful ;)
[01:47] <Terminus> filip_: maybe unfo's suggestion will work? sometimes i just wipeout all the .files in my $home and restore from /etc/skel/ though. that resets everything to defaults.
[01:48] <unfo> Shadyman: I wrote up a whole bug report and everything for a serious bug, but then rebooting fixed it. I don't know... rebooting is almost as fast. Maybe a file was left open by the kernel.
[01:48] <filip_> i'll just logout and in... and see if that works. brb
[01:48] <Terminus> filip_: if you do that, beware of data that might be in those dirs that you don't want to lose though.
[01:48] <unfo> .va.shawcable.net? is va a province?
[01:48] <nickrud> rflmao
[01:48] <unfo> :)
[01:49] <filip_> ok, relog worked... but why should i need to do that?
[01:49] <unfo> filip_: dunno.
[01:49] <Shadyman> filip: Sounds like a bug with amarok
[01:49] <amphi> Tuzlo: what is the problem?
[01:50] <nickrud> amphi, he needs to provide pop3 service
[01:50] <unfo> Tuzlo: know what you need?
[01:50] <hasan> which repository do i have to install to view wmv files?
[01:50] <unfo> !easyubuntu
[01:50] <Shadyman> !restricted formats
[01:50] <ubotu> easyubuntu is, like, totally, an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/.
[01:50] <ubotu> hmm... restricted formats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats or '!codecs'
[01:50] <OMGLAZERS> Could anyone here mind to help me out in partitioning a PowerPC Macintosh Laptop so I can install a version of Ubuntu onto it?
[01:50] <Shadyman> !tell hasan about restricted formats
[01:50] <unfo> OMGLAZERS: partitioning help is very hard to provide unless you have 2 computers.
[01:50] <amphi> nickrud: I understood that - has he installed a pop3d? all the ones I've seen will retrieve mail from /var/mail/$USER
[01:50] <Arrick> hey nickrud I think I finally got the ubuntu server to install, I didnt realize my son had gotten the cd dirty
[01:51] <OMGLAZERS> Unfo: I do have two computers, if you mean to walk me through it
[01:51] <nickrud> amphi, ok, I'll just ease out of this conv :)
[01:51] <unfo> Tuzlo: what you need is a good book about mail server administration.
[01:51] <unfo> OMGLAZERS: oh. then youre fine.
[01:51] <amphi> nickrud: he didn't reply so to me so...
[01:51] <Tuzlo> amphi: yes ive installed qpopper and I tried teapop after that, neoither was workin
[01:51] <nickrud> Arrick, heh.
[01:51] <unfo> though i currently can't walk you thru it, I use Debian.
[01:51] <Tuzlo> sorry im scroll back and forth between ssh and irc
[01:51] <OMGLAZERS> Know anyone who might be able to?
[01:51] <unfo> OMGLAZERS: ask again
[01:51] <OMGLAZERS> I'm afraid to edit the table manually and screw up
[01:51] <amphi> Tuzlo: what happened?
[01:52] <Tuzlo> no conection on port 110
[01:52] <amphi> Tuzlo: telnet localhost 110 is good for testing
[01:52] <unfo> OMGLAZERS: if you copy all your documents and all other files to CD then there's no worry at all.
[01:52] <tag> ok
[01:52] <amphi> Tuzlo: does netstat -plunt show anything listening on 110?
[01:52] <filip_> question2: i deleted the "applications" menu by accident in kde menu editor. how do i get it back?
[01:52] <Tuzlo> jesus, says connection refused
[01:52] <OMGLAZERS> Unfo: Very true. I'm just not in the mood to deal with installations. I've already done a backup.. just no idea how to edit the partition table :P
[01:52] <tag> I am using LVM, how do I mount my root partition (from the live cd) so I can edit a file?
[01:52] <unfo> amphi: whoa, i only have ever used netstat -a. :)
[01:53] <amphi> Tuzlo: what does netstat say?
[01:53] <amphi> unfo: plunt is teh good ;)
[01:53] <CyaniCs> amphi: so why do you do this?
[01:53] <Shadyman> tag: Go to System > Administration > Disk Viewer or whatever it's called
[01:53] <unfo> i once set up $LESS to like a 15-letter string.
[01:53] <Tuzlo> nothin on 110
[01:53] <Tuzlo> s5 is there though
[01:53] <Tuzlo> 25
[01:53] <amphi> Tuzlo: there you go - I would try popa3d, it's simple and seems to work well enough
[01:54] <beto> ?
[01:54] <Tuzlo> requires configuring?
[01:54] <unfo> Tuzlo: but also buy a book. theyre cheap and good. :)
[01:54] <unfo> OMGLAZERS: nobody is helping you, you may want to ask your question again.
[01:54] <OMGLAZERS> Could anyone here mind to help me out in partitioning a PowerPC Macintosh Laptop so I can install a version of Ubuntu onto it?
[01:55] <tag> Shadyman: Nice, but how do I get things other than /boot/ ?
[01:55] <tag> I need /etc/
[01:55] <Tuzlo> damn, that actually loaded up unlike qpopper and teapop
[01:55] <amphi> Tuzlo: I don't recall; very little, if any IIRC
[01:55] <tag> and its in the LVM stuff
[01:55] <amphi> Tuzlo: telnet localhost 110
[01:55] <amphi> Tuzlo: do you speak pop3? ;)
[01:55] <unfo> filip_: i just thought of something. is it an amarok bug? if so, switch to juk.
[01:56] <Tuzlo> nope, I dont, but its connected
[01:56] <filip_> OMGLAZERS, put in a windows xp cd, boot off it, delete all partitions... then put in ubuntu cd and go from there
[01:56] <Shadyman> amphi: HELO?
[01:56] <filip_> unfo, its not anything to do with amarok.
[01:56] <unfo> oh
[01:56] <Shadyman> unfo: Wrong person?
[01:56] <Tuzlo> thanks amphi
[01:56] <amphi> Tuzlo: try USER some_user [enter]  and PASS password [enter]  in telnet
[01:56] <unfo> filip_: you could post to a mailing list about the tray gap. smart people hang out there often
[01:56] <OMGLAZERS> filip_: I'm attempting to install ubuntu without deleting any parititons, plus it's on a Mac
[01:56] <tag> ok
[01:57] <hasan> thanks shady man
[01:57] <tag> LVM, how do I get inside the actual LVM partitions from the live cd?
[01:57] <Shadyman> I'm burning a CD during a thunderstorm. Am I begging for a visit from Murphy?
[01:57] <filip_> unfo, right now amarok is working fine for me. i think it may have something to do with running multiple gui sessions
[01:57] <bpuccio> anyone else get ubuntu installed on a macbook (mactel)? I just hosed my machine so I think I might be doing something wrong
[01:57] <amphi> Tuzlo: if that's ok, then STAT should show how many mails and bytes there are
[01:57] <filip_> OMGLAZERS, sorry, i can't help you then :P
[01:57] <OMGLAZERS> filip_: Thanks all the same
[01:57] <unfo> OMGLAZERS: ubuntu/ppc support can be hard to find. you can keep asking here or use the forums/mailing lists.
[01:58] <filip_> unfo, i'll just relog everytime it happens, its no biggie.
[01:58] <Tuzlo> nice amphi, got a name of a book I should invest in?
[01:58] <unfo> OMGLAZERS: or you can ask a local Linux User Group.
[01:58] <filip_> can someone help me get my applications menu back? i deleted it in the menu editor by accident.
[01:58] <amphi> Tuzlo: RETR n will retrieve the text of mail n, DELE n will delete mail n, QUIT will log you off
[01:58] <amphi> Shadyman: ehlo? ;)
[01:59] <amphi> Tuzlo: did that stuff work?
[01:59] <Tuzlo> yes
[01:59] <amphi> Tuzlo: excellent
[01:59] <Tuzlo> I said thanks already
[01:59] <amphi> Tuzlo: that's all the pop3 client does
[01:59] <tag> aha I think I got it
[01:59] <Tuzlo> got a name of a book I should invest in?
[01:59] <unfo> Tuzlo: i have no clue, try http://www.oreilly.com/pub/topic/email
[01:59] <unfo> it may have one.
[01:59] <tag> Now to see if it worked
[02:00] <amphi> Tuzlo: what, you tried logging in and retrieving a mail with telnet?
[02:00] <nothumphrey> morning, tryingto change the boot order grub uses, have an idea of what to do but a little scared that i'll screw things up. Do i simply change the way they ordered in /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[02:00] <Tuzlo> yes
[02:00] <Tuzlo> it worked amphi
[02:00] <OMGLAZERS> Could anyone here mind to help me out in partitioning a PowerPC Macintosh Laptop so I can install a version of Ubuntu onto it?
[02:00] <amphi> Tuzlo: cool - there are probably useful howtos at tldp.org; you can also learn a lot from watching a protocol analyser like ethereal
[02:01] <PeregrineSky> OMGLAZERS, do you have a live CD like kubuntu?
[02:01] <Tuzlo> damn, been so long since I fiddled with deb, I forgot about tldp
[02:01] <amphi> Tuzlo: SAG and NAG at tldp.org are also worth a look, even though they're a bit long in the tooth
[02:01] <Tuzlo> jesus, I cant afford ethereal
[02:01] <PeregrineSky> OMGLAZERS, what mac are you putting it on?
[02:01] <amphi> Tuzlo: afford?
[02:01] <nickrud> nothumphrey, that, or there's a line near the top of your grub.lst, starting with default. You could count all title lines, starting at zero, and change that line to the count you want to be default
[02:01] <amphi> Tuzlo: there's always tcpdump for console
[02:02] <unfo> PeregrineSky: Tuzlo: http://safari.oreilly.com is excellent too but its expensive.
[02:02] <unfo> ebooks.
[02:02] <filip_> OMGLAZERS, i think all you would need is a PPC partition editor and make empty space on your harddrive from within macos.... then just let ubuntu make itself partitions in the empty space
[02:02] <amphi> Tuzlo: ethereal is gpl, or is that not what you meant
[02:02] <Tuzlo> kewl, thanks
[02:02] <sibblegp> how do I install sshd?
[02:02] <sibblegp> what package is it in?
[02:02] <Tuzlo> hmm, I though ethereal was a win client
[02:02] <dli> sibblegp:  sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[02:02] <unfo> sibblegp: ssh-server probably
[02:02] <sibblegp> thanks!
[02:02] <mick_> what command is used to execute a .sh script?
[02:03] <Tuzlo> openssh- somehting
[02:03] <unfo> mick_: bash
[02:03] <amphi> Tuzlo: there is a win32 port, I believe
[02:03] <dli> sibblegp: time to learn packages.ubuntu.com , or , apt-file search
[02:03] <Tuzlo> apt-cache search openssh
[02:03] <mick_> unfo, thx
[02:03] <nothumphrey> thanks nickrud, much happier with that solution. :)
[02:03] <OMGLAZERS> peregrinesky: PPC Powerbook Mac
[02:03] <amphi> Tuzlo: apt-get install ethereal would install it for you
[02:03] <unfo> mick_: i hope the script youre running is a good one. :)
[02:03] <unfo> mick_: they come in varying quality.
[02:03] <PeregrineSky> how new? OMGLAZERS
[02:03] <Tuzlo> cli or gui oriented?
[02:03] <OMGLAZERS> filip_: Yea, the partition editors are like $50 so i'm none to happy about blowing cash like that. For that, i'd just wipe the drive and reinstall :P
[02:03] <nickrud> nothumphrey, the problem with changing menu.lst is when you get a new kernel, it will be autogenerated I think
[02:04] <PeregrineSky> OMGLAZERS, i used kubuntu to partition my ibook
[02:04] <nothumphrey> ill keep that in mind
[02:04] <amphi> Tuzlo: ethereal is gtk (gui); there's a console version tethereal, which is much like tcpdump AFAIK
[02:04] <nothumphrey> so just keep fucking with it each timei update the kernal?
[02:04] <OMGLAZERS> PeregrineSky Pretty new... Kubuntu? Ill go check it out
[02:04] <felipe__> Hello, I use grub as a boot loader, how can I make windows boot by default?
[02:04] <daddius> anyone knows a linux utility that can compare the size of two similar files?
[02:04] <Harith> amphi: hello ;)
[02:04] <PeregrineSky> OMGLAZERS, running os x?
[02:04] <unfo> nickrud: maybe what they should do is change the default? note: it's 0-based
[02:04] <amphi> evenin' Harith
[02:04] <OMGLAZERS> peregrinesky Absolutely :)
[02:05] <Harith> amphi: morning here
[02:05] <sibblegp> ok, how about apache?
[02:05] <Tuzlo> im not much on knowledge of TCP/IP
[02:05] <amphi> daddius: ls -l foo bar ;)
[02:05] <PeregrineSky> from exeperience i will tell you ubuntu on a mac is dreadfully slow
[02:05] <sibblegp> apache-server doesn't work and neither does apache
[02:05] <filip_> try apache2
[02:05] <unfo> !smart-questions
[02:05] <ubotu> I heard smart-questions is some useful tips on what to try before asking a question on IRC are at http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
[02:05] <sibblegp> filip_ bingo!
[02:05] <Archville> Hello
[02:05] <unfo> sibblegp: its best if you tell us why not when you ask. :)
[02:06] <amphi> Tuzlo: the glorious stevens book (tcp/ip illustrated vol. 1) has been seen here & there on the web (sorry, I have no url(
[02:06] <Arrick> anyone, I got ubuntu server installed on my box, how do I check for network settings?
[02:06] <CaptainMorgan> I reinstalled Win and now grub is gone.. do I do a simple grub reinstall to find Ubuntu?
[02:06] <CaptainMorgan> !dapper
[02:06] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install, or other conversation, dapper will be in this channel from 1st June :-) BUT not until then
[02:06] <daddius> amphi, yeah but i think i might need something like awk right?
[02:06] <Archville> Got a problem. I've updated Ubuntu and it updated the kernel. Now X-Windows refuse to load. The message is: Unable to load nvidia kernel module.
[02:06] <Archville> I'm using dapper.
[02:06] <LinuxJones> Arrick, try ifconfig -a
[02:06] <amphi> daddius: you need to do this in a script?
[02:07] <unfo> !tell Archville about dapper
[02:07] <Archville> Apt-get also says that the package linux-restricted-modules is locked.
[02:07] <randabis> !tell randabis about dapper
[02:07] <nickrud> unfo, I believe that's what I said, but the autogen I'm not comfortable enough with
[02:07] <unfo> randabis: :) instead, you can just /msg ubotu dapper
[02:07] <randabis> :)
[02:07] <daddius> amphi, yeah i know...  is there a tokenizer that could be used in something like perl or so?  perhaps python
[02:07] <randabis> i did not know
[02:07] <Arrick> LinuxJones, I should see an ip right?
[02:07] <unfo> nickrud: i dont understand. autogen?
[02:08] <randabis> I only wanted it for the dapper channel..I forgot what it was
[02:08] <rkd> CaptainMorgan: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[02:08] <amphi> daddius: awk would do
[02:08] <hasan> arrick what are you trying to do? setup an http server?
[02:08] <LinuxJones> Arrick, yes, you can also try doing ping cnet.com (ctrl + c to stop) if you get a reply your connected to the internet
[02:08] <nickrud> unfo, new kernel regenerates the menu.list from the single commented lines inside of menu.lst.
[02:08] <Arrick> no, trying to connect to the internet rigth at the moment, cant ping my router
[02:08] <Arrick> or my webserver
[02:08] <LinuxJones> Arrick, ohh
[02:08] <unfo> nickrud: i have no clue then.
[02:09] <daddius> amphi, now just have to remember :-)
[02:09] <daddius> thanks
[02:09] <hasan> yeah if u press ifconfig -a you should see an ip
[02:09] <hasan> inet is your internal address
[02:09] <nickrud> unfo, I have a vague clue. I count from zero, and reset it after each new kernel. (lilo dude here, actually)
[02:09] <Arrick> all I see is 127.0.0.1
[02:09] <Lemino_> anyone with experience of CROSSFIRE?
[02:10] <unfo> !justask
[02:10] <ubotu> - Ask your question and we'll try to answer it.
[02:10] <LinuxJones> Arrick, sounds like your network card module wasn't loaded what kind of network card do you have ?
[02:10] <nickrud> lilo is heaven, the net says so
[02:10] <Arrick> and local loopback
[02:10] <Arrick> dlink
[02:10] <Arrick> i'll try one of the others and restart the networking
[02:10] <CaptainMorgan> rkd thanks
[02:10] <Arrick> or reboot
[02:10] <LinuxJones> Arrick, do you know what make/model ?
[02:10] <Arrick> I have 3com and intel
[02:10] <mick_> so there i was, installing the ati drivers from their site, everthing says it completed successfully etc... and it says to run aticonfig from console
[02:10] <unfo> nickrud: and "ed is the standard editor." :)
[02:10] <rkd> CaptainMorgan: np
[02:10] <mick_> but then that command says cannot be found
[02:10] <Arrick> the 3com is the same mod as the intel pro/100
[02:11] <Lemino_> ubotu: sure. I can't get the gtk-client to work. It seems as if a certain directory (~/.crossfire) isn't correctly created during install.
[02:11] <ubotu> I'm sorry, i don't know what you're talking about, Lemino_
[02:11] <jak08>  so i have a Q. how do you get Gnome Dial when you have to download it?
[02:11] <amphi> daddius: /usr/bin/stat -c '%s' foo might be a Better Way(TM)
[02:11] <nickrud> unfo, that was a subtle push to google lilo heaven
[02:11] <unfo> nickrud: o
[02:11] <Arrick> I just had to use one I didnt know for sure was supported didnt I LinuxJones
[02:11] <LinuxJones> Arrick, lspci -v and write down the make/model and I will try to find the correct ones to load
[02:11] <Lemino_> ubotu: you don't?
[02:11] <ubotu> Lemino_: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:11] <unfo> Hi all, I am trying to edit my /etc/passwd file, but when I type "sudo ed /etc/passwd" all I see is a question mark. What is wrong? Why can't I see the contents of the file? <end sarcasm>
[02:11] <unfo> :)
[02:11] <Arrick> hey LinuxJones I gotta have a connection to load them right?
[02:12] <amphi> unfo: heh
[02:12] <Arrick> RTL8139 Ethernet Rev10
[02:12] <LinuxJones> Arrick, they should be listed in ifconfig at the very least if the modules are loaded
[02:12] <Arrick> DFE-530tx
[02:12] <nickrud> eh, it's changed again. The changing face of the net :)
[02:12] <amphi> Arrick: 8139too should work with that
[02:12] <filip_> how do i run a script as root without having to type in the su password? i mean, as opposed to sudo ./scriptname
[02:12] <LinuxJones> Arrick, do sudo modprobe 8139too
[02:13] <LinuxJones> Arrick, then do ifconfig -a and it outta be listed
[02:13] <blackline> Hi, i got this disk, /dev/sda10, that i want to format to ext3. what is the command for that?
[02:13] <Arrick> nothing in return LinuxJones what next
[02:13] <Arrick> nothing is new, I already had eth0
[02:14] <Arrick> sorry
[02:14] <Arrick> no ip there though
[02:14] <LinuxJones> Arrick, it's not listed in ifconfig ?
[02:14] <Arrick> yeah eth0 is
[02:14] <LinuxJones> Arrick, oh sorry man I didn't realise you had a card working
[02:14] <sorcre> Hello, has anyone gotten 3D acceleration working on Dapper (with an Nvidia card)?
[02:14] <Arrick> yeah but I cant ping
[02:14] <LinuxJones> Arrick, your on a local router right ?
[02:14] <Shadyman> sorcre: Yes.
[02:15] <Arrick> yes
[02:15] <Arrick> dhcp
[02:15] <unfo> nickrud: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2005/02/msg00437.html? it's not funny, was it supposed to be?
[02:15] <mick_> the amarok site is barely there, and the page describing how to install it on a debian based system isn't functioning, but hte tarball for compiling it yourself was available... so how do i compile a program myself?
[02:15] <daddius> amphi, would like to show in mb
[02:15] <Shadyman> sorcre: You have to go into Synaptic Package Manager and download the nvidia drivers
[02:15] <sorcre> Whenever I try to install it I get X server errors and have to restore the old config file
[02:15] <sorcre> Shadyman: That screws up X for me.
[02:15] <Arrick> I try pinging my webserver and it says network unreachable
[02:15] <LinuxJones> Arrick, your probably using dhcp so we are gonna have to make a small change in a config file and restart networking
[02:15] <unfo> mick_: who cares? :) sudo apt-get install amarok
[02:15] <Tonren> hay guys, what's a good mu* client for linux/command line?
[02:15] <Arrick> ok
[02:15] <unfo> Tonren: telnet
[02:15] <Arrick> what next?
[02:15] <unfo> Arrick: traceroute
[02:16] <LinuxJones> Arrick, first try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[02:16] <mick_> unfo, hmm.. can you tell i am new :P
[02:16] <nickrud> noonex, just a comment that lilo is not annoying, in fact it doesn't need a decent bios unlike grub. But, grub is a lot more usable these days on more recent machines
[02:16] <LinuxJones> Arrick, do ifconfig -a to see if an ip address appears
[02:16] <unfo> mick_: who cares? i used to be too. the point is that you almost *never* have to compile *anything* in ubuntu.
[02:17] <mick_> unfo, good to know
[02:17] <Arrick> where exactly should I see the ip?
[02:17] <nickrud> unfo, erm, I got tab-completed to heck again
[02:17] <Arrick> I cant remember
[02:17] <Lemino_> anyone who knows anything about crossfire?
[02:17] <Arrick> been a few weeks
[02:17] <unfo> nickrud: use Emacs ERC, it fixes that.
[02:17] <Arrick> should be under eth0 right?
[02:17] <Arrick> LinuxJones, ^^
[02:17] <amphi> daddius: pipe through bc
[02:17] <LinuxJones> Arrick, yeah under inet addr:
[02:17] <unfo> mick_: go to "Install Packages" on the top-left menu, then go to "Advanced" on the File menu to get to Synaptic if amarok is not there.
[02:18] <nickrud> unfo, I'll look that up
[02:18] <unfo> nickrud: how are your emacs skills?
[02:18] <mick_> unfo,  the apt-get worked :), thx!
[02:18] <nickrud> crappy, to be charitable
[02:18] <unfo> mick_: great!
[02:18] <Arrick> LinuxJones, all that says inet addr :127.0.0.1 is under lo not under eth0
[02:18] <unfo> nickrud: sudo apt-get install erc -y && emacs
[02:18] <unfo> nickrud: M-x erc-select RET
[02:18] <unfo> nickrud: that is how you start it.
[02:19] <Arrick> hey LinuxJones let me switch this nic, I think I just remembered having some issues with it before
[02:19] <nickrud> unfo, oh, god, no! not another meta mode or whatever they're called !!!!!
[02:19] <tag> Okay
[02:19] <tag> how is my nsswitch.conf supposed to be set up to use nis and local auth both?
[02:19] <unfo> nickrud: yes, it is. in #emacs there are people who can tell you more, ERC is the ultimate IRC client.
[02:19] <l_> what is emacs
[02:19] <unfo> l_: emacs used to be the ultimate text editor
[02:19] <unfo> l_: then since it was everywhere,
[02:20] <LinuxJones> Arrick, ok
[02:20] <unfo> l_: and it was a Lisp runtime environment, whenever someone wanted to write a program in Lisp,
[02:20] <nickrud> unfo, I truly need to learn the docbook mode for emacs, and don't have the time. (or, I spend the time I could be doing that here)
[02:20] <LinuxJones> Arrick, are you using a dsl modem to connect to the internet ?
[02:20] <Samuli^> there's just ridiculous numbers of text-editors for linux
[02:20] <tag> when I give my nsswitch.conf "passwd: nis"
[02:20] <unfo> l_: they wrote it as an Emacs plugin. now ERC, the finest text IRC client, is made as Emacs plugins.
[02:20] <tag> it ignores my local configurations
[02:20] <tag> and I no longer have sudo on my machine
[02:21] <unfo> l_: but it's also the ultimate text editor.
[02:21] <Arrick> yes
[02:21] <nickrud> l_, it's another os.
[02:21] <Samuli^> Isn't Irssi the ultimate irc-client?
[02:21] <unfo> nickrud: so just join #emacs channel
[02:21] <Arrick> LinuxJones, yes
[02:21] <Marsmensch> hello
[02:21] <unfo> Samuli^: no, emacs ERC is, though not enough ppl know.
[02:22] <unfo> (add-hook 'erc-insert-post-hook 'FOO)
[02:22] <unfo> (defun FOO ()
[02:22] <unfo>   (when (string-match "^<fsbot>" string)
[02:22] <unfo>     (play-sound-file "/usr/share/games/tuxkart/wavs/barf.wav")))
[02:22] <unfo> oh noes, it's lisp!!!1!1111!!!</sarcasm>
[02:22] <dashriKe> I is back
[02:22] <unfo> nickrud: it's fun tho...
[02:22] <dashriKe> stoopid computer :X
[02:22] <nickrud> lisp is not the issue. it's time :)
[02:23] <unfo> Marsmensch: hi
[02:23] <nickrud> I toyed with lisp 20 years ago, unfo
[02:23] <unfo> nickrud: if so, then you know you want to use emacs. :)
[02:23] <LinuxJones> Arrick, so you don't have an ip address on that card ?
[02:23] <tag> but when I use "passwd: files nis"
[02:23] <tag> nis stops working
[02:23] <Arrick> not yet
[02:23] <Arrick> it should have a dhcp internal address
[02:24] <nickrud> vim, for the 'learn as little as possible to get the work done' crowd
[02:24] <amphi> daddius: you get it working?
[02:24] <LinuxJones> Arrick, correct
[02:24] <Arrick> the dsl modem is a 4port router as well
[02:24] <unfo> nickrud: vim's scripting language is far worse.
[02:25] <Marsmensch> i love my dapper baby, but i think i well need some games
[02:25] <daddius> amphi, working on it
[02:25] <Arrick> LinuxJones, and I have had ubuntu boxes on it, so this thing should work, just a new box
[02:25] <jonuk> hey everyone
[02:25] <nickrud> unfo, that is an absolute truth. But, we're off topic. (for the record, I'm gonna find some time to devote to emacs for docbook. I just can't now)
[02:25] <jonuk> i've got Ubuntu installed!
[02:25] <unfo> Marsmensch: have you ever heard of rogue or nethack?
[02:25] <unfo> jonuk: great!
[02:25] <OneTB> anybody feel like helping a complete nube
[02:25] <Marsmensch> unfo, no, never ever
[02:25] <jonuk> Thank you guys for all your help
[02:25] <daddius> amphi, i have ls -l | gawk '{print $4}'
[02:25] <Arrick> ok what next LinuxJones
[02:25] <Marsmensch> can you tell me about it?
[02:25] <unfo> Marsmensch: you may want to look into it.
[02:25] <Arrick> still no ip
[02:25] <unfo> Marsmensch: for more info: /join #nethack
[02:26] <Marsmensch> k k
[02:26] <daddius> i want to place this in a perl array and then do it again to another file to compare against the two
[02:26] <unfo> :)
[02:26] <dashriKe> anybody know a good reason why a fresh install of ubuntu cannot get any internet connection?
[02:26] <Arrick> hang on let me chack the dhcp settings
[02:26] <Arrick> dashrite mine dont either
[02:26] <jonuk> I have 2 more questions to ask of you
[02:26] <OneTB> dashrike: having same issue
[02:26] <LinuxJones> Arrick, what card did you put in ?
[02:26] <Arrick> 3com
[02:26] <Archville> !sound
[02:26] <ubotu> Help to fix issues with sound can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[02:26] <Arrick> hang on will get the number
[02:27] <B1zz> notebook crads?
[02:27] <jonuk> First, I set my partitions up like this: 10GB /root, 20GB /home, 1GB Swap...Then I tried to make the final 219GB as FAT32
[02:27] <B1zz> cards*
[02:27] <jonuk> It gave me this error: "The attempt to mount a file system w/ type vfat in IDE1 master partition #3 at /windows/shared failed
[02:27] <amphi> daddius: i=`/usr/bin/stat -c '%s' foo` && echo "scale=2; $i / 1048576" | bc will give you size in mb with 2 decimal places
[02:27] <Arrick> 3c905 100basetx LinuxJones
[02:27] <jonuk> So I just left it as free space
[02:28] <jonuk> But I would like to format it so that it can be shared by Windows and Linux
[02:28] <jonuk> How do I partition that space in Linux, and what file system should I use?
[02:28] <OneTB> fat32
[02:29] <soundray> jonuk: the command to format a FAT32 filesystem is mkdosfs. Your partition is too big to be handled by fat32 efficiently, though.
[02:29] <nickrud> bioprogrammer, your best path is to install breezy to a hard drive. I have no idea what BioPerl does, but if you want to use it usefully, it'll need to be done from an install
[02:29] <jonuk> oh okay
[02:29] <Shadyman> jonuk: You can use ext3, you can get a windows program to let windows recognize it
[02:29] <Samuli^> fat32 supports 200GB
[02:29] <soundray> jonuk: I suggest you format it as ext2 and get a driver for this filesystem for Windows.
[02:29] <Samuli^> not in windows though.
[02:30] <bioprogrammer> Thanks nickrud.
[02:30] <rkd> jonuk: You could make multiple FAT partitions?
[02:30] <jonuk> Hmm...well, I might just format it as NTFS in Windows
[02:30] <Shadyman> jonuk: NTFS is read-only in linux
[02:30] <jonuk> I only want to store media files on there to be viewed in Linux
[02:30] <LinuxJones> arrick that a c3509 ?
[02:30] <Samuli^> jonuk, then you won't be able to write to it in linux
[02:30] <jonuk> I'm not planning on writing to the space from Linux
[02:30] <protocol1> !java
[02:30] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[02:30] <Ahmuck> jonuk: if you want something else besides fat32 i would go with ext3
[02:30] <Arrick> 3c905
[02:30] <Samuli^> jonuk, NTFS is a good choice then.
[02:30] <rkd> jonuk: Yeah, go for NTFS, then.
[02:30] <Arrick> 3c905 LinuxJones
[02:30] <jonuk> Okay, I will work on that.
[02:31] <jonuk> My other question concerns the Dual-boot
[02:31] <soundray> jonuk: to create a partition in the free space, the easiest program to use is probably gparted
[02:31] <duckdown> Is there another screenshot program?  Preferably one that can let you select only a portion of the screen like KDE's, or one that can save in .jpeg ?
[02:31] <jonuk> I don't know if you all are familiar with my former problem, but I have 2 hard drives.  The other one is a 40GB drive with Windows on it.  I had to unplug the drive for the Ubuntu installation to work
[02:32] <jonuk> I'd like to know how to set up Grub so that I can dual boot once I plug my other hard drive with Windows back in
[02:32] <dashriKe> ubuntu is smarter than me
[02:32] <OneTB> so is that a no, no one whats to help out a linux virgin
[02:32] <Arrick> jonuk, you should have had the windows drive in when you installed ubuntu
[02:32] <Arrick> !dualboot
[02:32] <ubotu> for wintel https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo :for the Mac https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[02:32] <nickrud> dashriKe, no it's not, just more knowledgeable in it's limited abilities
[02:32] <Shadyman> oneTB: What was your problem?
[02:32] <jonuk> Arrick:  It would not work when that drive was hooked up.  It kept hanging at "Starting Partitioner"
[02:33] <LinuxJones> Arrick, I am trying to find the module you need .....
[02:33] <Arrick> as it should jonuk takes a but to recognize it
[02:33] <OneTB> besides needing general all over tips, I cant get my wireless or ethernet to work
[02:33] <Arrick> LinuxJones, would it be on the cd?
[02:33] <soundray> duckdown: jpeg is about the worst format you could pick for a screenshot.
[02:33] <amphi> OneTB: are the interfaces shown in ifconfig -a ?
[02:33] <jonuk> Arrick...no, I waited like 20 minutes...and it never popped up
[02:33] <OneTB> I know the dirvers arent on there, but I only have windows drivers and dont know the command line well enought to impletement them
[02:33] <Arrick> ok
[02:33] <OneTB> if i even can
[02:34] <jonuk> and when I hit Ctrl+C, it started to reload the partitioner then hangs at 52% everytime
[02:34] <soundray> duckdown: try Alt-PrintScreen to get a single-window screenshot
[02:34] <Shadyman> OneTB: What version are you using?
[02:34] <amphi> OneTB: are you sure they aren't natively supported?
[02:34] <dashriKe> mine aren't natively supported either
[02:34] <Arrick> hey LinuxJones im pinging the router now
[02:35] <Arrick> and getting access
[02:35] <OneTB> drake
[02:35] <unfo> jonuk: i want to apologize to you for before, I was going to suggest you look for a Linux User Group for free in-person help in your area
[02:35] <LinuxJones> Arrick, lovely
[02:35] <unfo> jonuk: i asked you where you were from so as to help you search for one
[02:35] <OneTB> and I see something configured under eth1
[02:35] <Shadyman> OneTB: There should be a "Windows Drivers" option in the Administration menu
[02:35] <benoy> does anyone know how to transfer files between two computers using a wireless router?
[02:35] <unfo> jonuk: if i shouldn't've, I apologize.
[02:35] <Arrick> LinuxJones, how do i get the dns working
[02:35] <Arrick> ?
[02:35] <unfo> Shadyman: non-free! non-free! shoot all the drivers!
[02:35] <unfo> :)
[02:36] <B1zz> hehe
[02:36] <daddius> amphi, nice
[02:36] <LinuxJones> Arrick, try pinging to the internet ping cnet.com (ctrl + c to quit)
[02:36] <jonuk> unfo: it's okay
[02:36] <OneTB> i dont see windows drivers thing in admin
[02:36] <Arrick> LinuxJones, nothing with names
[02:36] <jonuk> unto, I really appreciate your help
[02:36] <abarbaccia> hey all - how do i figure out what port my serial port is on /dev/ttyS??
[02:36] <unfo> abarbaccia: palmpilot? null modem?
[02:36] <jonuk> can anyone help me get the dual-boot set up now though?
[02:36] <dashriKe> so who wants to send me a decent socet A mobo?
[02:37] <abarbaccia> unfo null modem i'm guessing
[02:37] <unfo> abarbaccia: what???
[02:37] <LinuxJones> Arrick, have a look in /etc/network/interfaces
[02:37] <B1zz> hmmm
[02:37] <OneTB> I thought they would be support, so i ran ndiswrapper, but it didnt work
[02:37] <abarbaccia> unfo - i don't know what your asking
[02:37] <LinuxJones> Arrick, open it in an editor like nano
[02:37] <B1zz> i got 2 socket 939 chips here :-p
[02:37] <unfo> abarbaccia: what is your device?

[02:38] <abarbaccia> unfo i'm just trying to access the serial port with a script
[02:38] <unfo> jonuk: i seriously recommend you get in-person help. can i ask, is the reason you left before: because I asked where you live and didnt explain why?
[02:38] <unfo> abarbaccia: what is plugged into the serial port
[02:38] <jonuk> kentucky, united states
[02:38] <Arrick> LinuxJones, its setup for dhcp, but Im about to change it our
[02:38] <Arrick> out
[02:38] <abarbaccia> unfo its a cable box
[02:38] <LinuxJones> Arrick, your setting static ip addresses ?
[02:38] <unfo> abarbaccia: why do you plug a cable box into serial?
[02:38] <Arrick> I would love to
[02:38] <unfo> jonuk: 1 sec
[02:38] <Arrick> but I dont have to at this time
[02:38] <abarbaccia> unfo to change the channel on it
[02:39] <abarbaccia> unfo (its a media center pc gig)
[02:39] <unfo> jonuk: Western Kentucky Linux Users Group http://linux.wku.edu
[02:39] <jonuk> unfo: thank you
[02:39] <LinuxJones> Arrick, run sudo pppoeconf and follow the prompts (select the defaults) and enter your dsl username and password when prompted
[02:39] <unfo> jonuk: Lexington Professional Linux Users Group www.lplug.org
[02:39] <megaman123> hey...got the mounting on boot thing :) all done (http://ubuntuguide.org/#automountnetworkfolders)
[02:40] <unfo> jonuk: University of Kentucky LUG etc. http://aggregate.org/XU.html
[02:40] <unfo> jonuk: or ask here.
[02:40] <Shadyman> megaman123: Nice.
[02:40] <nickrud> megaman123, oh, ubuntuguide is evil :)
[02:40] <megaman123> two more things and im home free with my linux htpc :))
[02:40] <jonuk> I will look there, but for now I would like to ask your help here
[02:41] <nickrud> !ubuntuguide
[02:41] <ubotu> methinks ubuntuguide is badly out of date,  reported to break a lot and generally a bad source for information. Use help.ubuntu.com or wiki.ubuntu.com instead.
[02:41] <Arrick> ok LinuxJones it doesnt allow that to be ran
[02:41] <Arrick> well, let me rephrase LinuxJones the router does not respond
[02:42] <jonuk> I had to unplug my other hard drive with Windows on it in order to install Ubuntu, how can I set up GRUB now so that I can dual boot
[02:42] <ice60> highvoltage, can someone help me find out a name of a documentary about Linux. it's not RevolutionOS, but similar. thanks :)
[02:42] <nickrud> maybe someone needs to mine that guide (hint, megaman123)
[02:42] <Arrick> !grub
[02:42] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[02:42] <jonuk> Arrick: what is !grub
[02:42] <Arrick> for you
[02:42] <jonuk> !grub
[02:42] <megaman123> :) will look more carefully into it :)
[02:42] <LinuxJones> Arrick, do sudo pon dsl-provider
[02:43] <Arrick> look at ubotus post jonuk
[02:43] <Shadyman> ubotu: tell jonuk about grub
[02:43] <vineeth> !mono
[02:43] <ubotu> methinks mono is implementation of .NET framework on linux.  For details http://www.go-mono.com
[02:43] <amphi> jonuk: prepending '!' sends to the bot
[02:43] <amphi> !botsnack
[02:43] <amphi> pfft
[02:43] <unfo> !beer amphi
[02:43] <jonuk> oh okay, sorry...didn't realize it was a bot
[02:43] <unfo> no beer?
[02:43] <protocol1> !java
[02:43] <ubotu> :)
[02:43] <ubotu> unfo: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:43] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[02:43] <Arrick> LinuxJones, is that supposed to be pon? or pong?
[02:43] <dashriKe> anybody now want to send me a better mobo? :P
[02:43] <jonuk> <---obvious n00b
[02:44] <Arrick> just hanging there
[02:44] <LinuxJones> Arrick, pon dsl-provider
[02:44] <Arrick> ok
[02:44] <Shadyman> dashriKe: No.
[02:44] <amphi> unfo: heh, what a desert
[02:44] <unfo> !tell dashriKe about freecycle
[02:44] <unfo> amphi: desert?
[02:44] <nickrud> ubotu has been cleansed
[02:44] <Arrick> froze up LinuxJones
[02:44] <LinuxJones> Arrick, omg :(
[02:44] <amphi> unfo: a beerless waste
[02:44] <unfo> amphi: yeah. :(
[02:44] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, nickrud
[02:45] <LinuxJones> Arrick, do a reboot will only take a few secs
[02:45] <nickrud> see?
[02:45] <Mez> where can i find logs of ssh logins?
[02:45] <unfo> jonuk: everyone is a newb at first.
[02:45] <unfo> !b33r
[02:45] <ubotu> unfo: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:46] <nickrud> jonuk, and you will always be a newb in some corner
[02:46] <dashriKe> I think I broke something again
[02:47] <amphi> dashriKe: heh
[02:47] <Shadyman> dashriKe: Likely. I do it all the time.
[02:47] <nickrud> dashriKe, half the fun of ubuntu (for those who hang out here) is breaking things, what did you do?
[02:48] <Arrick> hey LinuxJones why durign boot does it say temporary failure in name resolution?
[02:49] <Arrick> ok its back up LinuxJones
[02:49] <amphi> Arrick: because your internet connection is not available, for ntpdate perhaps?
[02:49] <Arrick> ok
[02:50] <Arrick> ok what next LinuxJones
[02:50] <Dyngo> how can I find the passcode to enable the communication between my mobile and the computer?
[02:50] <Arrick> what he do quit nickrud ?
[02:50] <Arrick> haha
[02:50] <LinuxJones> Arrick, did you look in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[02:50] <Arrick> yeah its setup correctly
[02:50] <LinuxJones> Arrick, you have to set the eth0 line to >> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[02:50] <nickrud> Arrick, yup. I'm gonna go play with my bug for a while
[02:51] <Arrick> ok let me rerun that other command, so it can finish, cause some new stuff is there LinuxJones
[02:51] <LinuxJones> Arrick, well if you can ping your router and pppoeconf is configured with the proper information it outta be working.
[02:52] <dashriKe> seriously, any mobos that don't crash every hour or less?
[02:52] <Arrick> yeah but dns isnt working on it, and I also checked resolv.conf too, it has the router set as dns, so should work right?
[02:53] <amphi> Arrick: you can reach a remote site by ip addr?
[02:53] <Arrick> dashriKe, try compaq en-sff 1700
[02:53] <Arrick> amphi yeah
[02:53] <LinuxJones> Arrick, do you have an ip address in the ppp0 or ppp1 listing in ifconfig -a ?
[02:53] <Arrick> LinuxJones, hang on let it finish the hanging
[02:53] <LinuxJones> Arrick, :)
[02:55] <filip_> how do you reload the partitions from fstab? i took out one and want it to unmount
[02:55] <amphi> Arrick: but nothing resolves? ping google.com doesn't work, for example?
[02:56] <apokryphos> filip_: mount -a
[02:56] <Arrick> nope amphi
[02:56] <amphi> filip_: unmount it manually
[02:56] <Arrick> but ping 127.0.0.1 does
[02:56] <Arrick> hang on
[02:56] <amphi> Arrick: that sounds like resolv.conf is wrong
[02:56] <Arrick> I need an outside address
[02:56] <filip_> root@digirat:/# umount /dev/sdb1
[02:56] <filip_> umount: /media/d: device is busy
[02:56] <Arrick> ip to ping
[02:57] <byteshack> I'm running xubuntu, and I would like to know how to change the default terminal to be xterm, instead of "Terminal"
[02:57] <LinuxJones> Arrick, 216.239.115.148
[02:57] <byteshack> when ever ubuntu needs a term, it opens that Terminal program, but I'd like to use xterm instead
[02:58] <byteshack> how can I do that?
[02:58] <Arrick> what is LinuxJones network is unreachable? but I can ping the router?
[02:58] <byteshack> "that terminal" meaning xfterm4
[02:58] <puffpuffpass> I want to install some packages from a usb stick, whats the best way to do it, to get all the depencencies.  I know about dpkg.  I just wonder if theres a suggested way to decide what to put on the usb stick without just tediously downloading and installing individual packages
[02:58] <LinuxJones> Arrick, ok great so it's only a dns problem
[02:59] <LinuxJones> Arrick, sorry so that ping didn't work ?
[02:59] <Arrick> LinuxJones, I cant ping outside ip addresses for some reason
[02:59] <Arrick> nope
[02:59] <Nullified> Right guys, In some serious need of help, Upgraded the OS to Dapper, Now the device manager picks up my Netgear WG311t wireless network card, but it doesnt appear in networking.....any ideas
[02:59] <amphi> byteshack: try sudo update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator perhaps
[03:00] <dashriKe> what are some good socket A motherboards? I have AMD2200+, 2GB PC3200, AGP GFX, etc
[03:00] <byteshack> amphi: how can I find out what it is set to right now?
[03:00] <LinuxJones> Arrick, have a look in /etc/resolv.conf
[03:00] <amphi> byteshack: that'll show yoy
[03:00] <ShellMaza> asus
[03:00] <amphi> *you
[03:00] <Shadyman> asus
[03:00] <Joetheodd> Does the normal install procedure for SETI@home work on Ubuntu?
[03:00] <Arrick> I just did, it has the router as the dns
[03:01] <byteshack> amphi: thanks
[03:01] <dashriKe> I am not liking my DFI board
[03:01] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: sure, install it with dpkg and then do "apt-get -f install" with no quotes
[03:01] <ShellMaza> why not
[03:01] <dos000> how do you make all my text editing with one single editor ? i like scite which is much better than gedit
[03:01] <filip_> dashriKe, asus has a lot of good ones
[03:01] <LinuxJones> Arrick, well it must be something with pppoeconf as best I can tell
[03:01] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: that will install all the dependancies to suit the package
[03:01] <puffpuffpass> How well is bluetooth working with ubuntu??
[03:01] <dashriKe> I had an older A7N8X Deluxe, I am having regrets I got rid of it
[03:02] <Seantater> dos000: What have you tried?
[03:02] <amphi> dos000: I set $EDITOR to /usr/bin/vim (which is much better than scite ;)
[03:02] <filip_> i personally loved my abit nf7-s due to its extreme overclockability
[03:02] <Seantater> dos000: I use kate and kwrite
[03:02] <dos000> Seantater, i tried vim and gedit .. both not so good
[03:02] <apokryphos> kwrite is old :P
[03:02] <ShellMaza> i have a MSI Neo3
[03:02] <dashriKe> I was going to get a nf7 v2 originally, but it was toast
[03:02] <apokryphos> kate is the shiznit though 8)
[03:02] <Seantater> dos000: what are you looking to do with it?
[03:02] <dos000> Seantater, i would like to stay with gnome tho
[03:02] <puffpuffpass> Seantater, i'm downloading the packages to the usb stick on a microsoft machine and swapping them to the ubuntu machine
[03:02] <Arrick> hey should I have a line that says "iface lo inet loopback" in interfaces file LinuxJones ?
[03:03] <apokryphos> dos000: it's worth trying out kate, definitely.
[03:03] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: any particular reason?
[03:03] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: no internet?
[03:03] <dos000> Seantater, i am so in love with scite .. i just want nautilus to notice that i want to use scite instead of gedit
[03:03] <puffpuffpass> Seantater, yes, no net
[03:03] <amphi> dos000: that must be easy to set in nautilus
[03:03] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: Hum --
[03:04] <Arrick> hey LinuxJones got it to ping now
[03:04] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: I think it may be a very long and tedious night
[03:04] <dos000> amphi, not for me (yet) !
[03:04] <filip_> system config > default applications?
[03:04] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: I do not know any other way
[03:04] <Arrick> the interfaces file didnt have the auto eth0 in it for some reason
[03:04] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: hold on
[03:05] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: I think I remember one -- it would install something with all it's dependancies just for no-net computers
[03:05] <GTroy_> second mobo without any post.... :(
[03:05] <puffpuffpass> Seantater, yeagh, me too.. i'm thinking maybe connecting to the windows machine with a ethernet cable but i dont know where to begin on that project.
[03:05] <LinuxJones> Arrick, sweet
[03:05] <megaman123> how can i make something write to the console..i have a file (ex has the line: noip2) and i put this file  in session-startup to run on startup but it didn't?
[03:05] <GTroy_> where do you go for hardware help?
[03:05] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: no router?
[03:05] <puffpuffpass> nope
[03:05] <Arrick> well, Im gonna shut it down, ad the raid, and then restart now that I got the thing to take an OS
[03:05] <apokryphos> GTroy_: right here
[03:05] <Arrick> ok, I'll be back
[03:05] <amphi> GTroy_: just ask
[03:06] <Arrick> (be here, but not talking)
[03:06] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: I think a eth only router can be fiound pretty cheap
[03:06] <LinuxJones> Arrick, GL
[03:06] <GTroy_> amphi, apokryphos, ok cool
[03:06] <Arrick> thank
[03:06] <Arrick> you
[03:06] <GTroy_> second mobo without any posting either time....what should I do?
[03:06] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: it will make your life much easier
[03:06] <b33rnutz> Ok, question. When I install Ubuntu, I can get everything to load up, but then when it comes to where I would sign in, my screen just goes all black. There isn't a command line or anything, just pitch black and I can't do anything. I can still put in my name/pass. Anyone know what could be causing this? (I looked on the site and didn't see anything, sorry if this is a common, easy fix.)
[03:07] <GTroy_> b33rnutz: I think it's a X problem
[03:07] <filip_> your X isn't starting right
[03:07] <Arrick> LinuxJones, is there a good cd burner program in ubuntu?
[03:07] <puffpuffpass> Seantater, if i'm gonna buy something i think i might buy a wireless card with bluetooth and then getting a bluetooth phone, what'd you think?
[03:07] <Arrick> if so all my burners are going into the box
[03:07] <b33rnutz> Hmm...ok, thanks
[03:07] <b33rnutz> Gotta figure this out now
[03:07] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: I'd hold on
[03:07] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: do research
[03:07] <filip_> b33rnutz, what kind of a video card do you have?
[03:07] <puffpuffpass> alright
[03:08] <amphi> Arrick: many
[03:08] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: Some wireless card will cause even more hassle
[03:08] <b33rnutz> nVidia 6600
[03:08] <Arrick> ok
[03:08] <puffpuffpass> i know
[03:08] <jonuk> i'm not finding much help (that i understand) about my problem with Grub
[03:08] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: what have you had in mind?
[03:08] <byteshack> loading a term (ie: running xterm from a command line) pops up the term window immediately, but it takes a while to show any text, any ideas?
[03:08] <jonuk> can I ask the question again to see if anyone else has any suggestions?
[03:08] <byteshack> I have no idea what the delay might be
[03:08] <filip_> b33rnutz,  login at command prompt... and sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[03:08] <byteshack> jonuk: just ask, don't ask if you can ask
[03:08] <b33rnutz> filip_, thanks
[03:08] <amphi> byteshack: you have some fancy prompt
[03:08] <amphi> ?
[03:09] <filip_> b33rnutz, i don't know which repository its in though...
[03:09] <puffpuffpass> Seantater, i've tried a couple wireless cards, got one to work then reinstalled a new ubuntu and couldnt do it again
[03:09] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: There /is/ a page on which ones work
[03:09] <amphi> byteshack: he's probably been told not to repeat ;)
[03:09] <jonuk> okay
[03:09] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: It's in the wiki
[03:10] <b33rnutz> filip_, heh, ok, thanks, I'm gonna go try to figure this out then
[03:10] <filip_> b33rnutz, does it not find it when you try to install nvidia-glx?
[03:10] <jonuk> I have 2 hard drives.  One has Windows on it and the other has a partition with Ubuntu on it (which I am using now).  Due to a problem with Ubuntu installation (long story), I was forced to unplug my Windows drive before the Ubuntu install would work.  Now I want to plug my Windows drive back in and set up GRUB to dual-boot the two OS.  Can anyone tell me how to do this?
[03:10] <byteshack> I only have: user@machine:~$
[03:10] <byteshack> but it really takes a long time to load
[03:11] <ShellMaza> jonuk, i told u how last night man
[03:11] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: if you are still there, I will send you some very helpful links
[03:11] <puffpuffpass> Seantater, yeah, i could do it again but i'm a truck driver so i really want to be able to get online anywhere even if it is only dialup from a cell phone...you can buy cell phone antenaes at the truck stops that turn a half watt signal into 4 watts..
[03:11] <byteshack> is that .bash_profile or .bashrc taking too long?
[03:11] <b33rnutz> filip_, I honestly haven't tried that much. I'm a linux/ubuntu n00b and didn't really have any idea what the problem was
[03:11] <jonuk> ShellMaza: yes you did, but I didn't understand what you were saying at that point, and I forgot what you told me.  I'm sorry.
[03:11] <amphi> byteshack: well, not that then; I used to have some extravagant prompts, but they didn't have noticeable overhead
[03:11] <amphi> byteshack: what about rxvt? same?
[03:12] <ShellMaza> ok easy
[03:12] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: hum --
[03:12] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: I don't know anything about dial-up
[03:12] <jonuk> Please dumb it down for me, I'm an extreme n00b.  :)
[03:12] <filip_> b33rnutz, all you need to do is to install nvidia-glx. the easiest way is to do it through apt-get.
[03:12] <Seantater> puffpuffpass: I'm afriad I;m not much help there.
[03:12] <byteshack> with xterm, it's now taking about 10 seconds from the time the window is drawn to the prompt
[03:12] <ShellMaza> remove win drive, install ubuntu, go into system bios and set the ubuntu drive as first boot device, once booted into ubuntu, add the window to the /boot/grub/menu.list
[03:12] <amphi> jonuk: where are you going to plug it in? which drive on which controller?
[03:13] <puffpuffpass> Seantater, thats cool, thanks anyhow, i just read something about bluetooth dialup and i'm wondering where ubuntu is on that.
[03:13] <b33rnutz> filip_, Ok, thanks.
[03:13] <byteshack> and it's taking the same (10 seconds) from window to prompt on rxvt
[03:13] <amphi> byteshack: something is deeply wrong...
[03:13] <AnsiC> hello
[03:14] <byteshack> believe me, I get that feeling :)
[03:14] <AnsiC> i have a router, i has install apache2
[03:14] <jonuk> ShellMaza: I have removed the win drive, installed ubuntu (i'm on it now)...i will try the rest
[03:14] <AnsiC> apt-get install apache2
[03:14] <AnsiC> i have upadte my host on dyndns.org
[03:14] <jonuk> ShellMaza: do I need to set the ubuntu drive as Master and the Windows drive as Slave?
[03:14] <filip_> b33rnutz, you need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list to add repositories. you can take a look at mine here: http://godd.no-ip.org/sources.list . i know its one of the ones without  the # at the beginning
[03:14] <jonuk> or can I leave the Windows drive as master
[03:14] <amphi> byteshack: as an experiment, you could try from a VT xinit -- :1 and then run xterm from the term that appears automagically
[03:14] <AnsiC> but i cannot have access to my page
[03:15] <jonuk> amphi: I have IDE drives
[03:15] <byteshack> I thought it was the bash_completion stuff, but after I commented that out, it still does the same thing
[03:15] <ShellMaza> jonuk, dont mess with the jumpers
[03:16] <amphi> jonuk: if you move the ubuntu disk around, you will have to fix grub and /etc/fstab for it to boot properly
[03:16] <ShellMaza> just change the setting in ur compuer bios
[03:16] <b33rnutz> filip_, ok, thanks. I'm going to go try this. i'll be back if I can't figure it out ;D
[03:16] <CyaniCs> amphi: you never answered my question from earlier... why do you do the tech support?
[03:16] <CyaniCs> amphi: me.... its fun
[03:17] <amphi> CyaniCs: why not?
[03:17] <CyaniCs> good answer.
[03:17] <jonuk> ShellMaza...okay I will leave the jumpers the same and just change BIOS
[03:17] <jonuk> thanks again for the help
[03:18] <amphi> CyaniCs: a more courteous answer is, partly because I got a lot of help myself in the past
[03:19] <CyaniCs> amphi: yeah? good karma.... me? self taught. necessity. love it though. been a linux advocate since 1996.
[03:19] <jonuk> ShellMaza: One more question.   Do I type /boot/grub/menu.list into the Terminal Window?  Sorry again I'm just starting out on Linux
[03:20] <filip_> jonuk, your'e trying to edit the file?
[03:20] <amphi> CyaniCs: yeah, TFM has been a pretty much constant companion
[03:20] <jonuk> filip_: yes I'm supposed to be adding Windows onto the file
[03:20] <jalesan> hola
[03:20] <jonuk> which, I'm not sure how to do that either
[03:20] <jalesan> exit
[03:20] <CyaniCs> amphi: lol. i hate manuals.
[03:20] <nnn0> jonuk, have you tried to google it ;)
[03:20] <CyaniCs> amphi: i just worked with it till it worked.
[03:21] <amphi> jonuk: I think you should read the info pages for grub first - pinfo is a more amiable info page browser
[03:21] <megaman123> ok...i tried double clicking the file and it gives me the options either to run or run in terminal...how can i make run in terminal from this auto startup?
[03:21] <amphi> jonuk: although broken in other ways, which don't affect the grub pages
[03:21] <daryl_> whats the url for ubuntu pastebin?
[03:21] <byteshack> weird thing with my SLOW prompt is that even if I create screens with "screen" (C-a c), those prompts still take some time to pup
[03:21] <daryl_> !paste
[03:21] <ubotu> Please don't flood the channel! For best results use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and tell people the URL

[03:28] <KingLinux> Need Help. Linux-restricted-modules-386 version 2.6.15.21 wont update to version 2.6.15.22  I tryed force upgrade and it wont. please help.
[03:28] <mikebot> anyone know?
[03:28] <jonuk> can't I just use the Terminal in Ubuntu?
[03:28] <filip_> its the same thing
[03:28] <amphi> jonuk: you could use gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:28] <filip_> gedit will be easier to work with
[03:29] <filip_> jonuk, at the end of the file, add what's in here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14237
[03:29] <amphi> jonuk: be careful, you may make your system unbootable if you make a mistake; the grub docs are worth reading first IMHO
[03:29] <mikebot> hey, so like, i want to make a launcher to run something using wine, would the command be: "wine cd /blah/blah.exe"??
[03:30] <bimberi> mikebot: no, just "wine /blah/blah.exe"
[03:30] <rightcoast> mikebot, it's just $ wine /foo/bar/exe.exe

[03:38] <jonuk> filip_:does the root (hd0,0) need to change
[03:39] <CaptainMorgan> !grub
[03:39] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[03:39] <amphi> bosco: ffs, please stop changing nick every few seconds
[03:39] <jonuk> filip_: to the name of my 1st hard drive
[03:39] <bosco> amphi, srry
[03:39] <bosco> ok amphi what do i do to mount my hard drive i have never had this problem before
[03:39] <filip_> jonuk, (hd0,0) is the first partition on your first harddrive
[03:39] <amphi> bosco: what partition is ubuntu installed on?
[03:39] <MENDIGO> ANYONE CAN HELP ME? I CANT ADD URL IN MY XMMS!!
[03:40] <Tidus> please turn off your caps lock
[03:40] <amphi> MENDIGO: plese don't shout
[03:40] <bosco> amphi,  it is installed on the main partition the only one
[03:40] <filip_> jonuk, because i had windows installed before ubuntu, hd0,0 is where my windows sits
[03:40] <MENDIGO> amphi, sorry man
[03:40] <CaptainMorgan> does the Super Grub Disk overwrite entry to Win?
[03:41] <filip_> jonuk, it should work like that for you too, unless you have partitions or drives moved around weird
[03:41] <mark_> #ubuntu
[03:41] <jonuk> filip_: in my menu.lst, all of the Ubuntu Kernels have the root as (hd0,0)...that's why I'm asking
[03:41] <jonuk> filip_: it looks like Ubuntu is installed there
[03:42] <amphi> bosco: ok; try sudo mount /dev/hda1 /whatever/directory/you/made
[03:42] <CaptainMorgan> anybody?
[03:42] <LinuxJones> Captain_Redbeard, it wouldn't be super if it did :)
[03:42] <filip_> jonuk, try hd0,0... if that doesn't work, maybe hd1,1 or any combination of the two
[03:42] <CaptainMorgan> anybody?
[03:42] <CaptainMorgan> j/k alright LJ
[03:43] <LinuxJones> :)
[03:43] <amphi> LinuxJones: wrong pirate ;)
[03:43] <Shadyman> Arr!
[03:43] <CaptainMorgan> so it overwrites Win.. uhg..
[03:43] <CaptainMorgan> argggh
[03:43] <jonuk> filip_: okay.  Also, I need to make sure I set the linux drive to boot 1st in my BIOS don't I?
[03:43] <Shadyman> Captain Morgan: No
[03:43] <CaptainMorgan> shiat
[03:43] <bosco> amphi,  mount: can't find /dev/hda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[03:43] <Shadyman> Captain Morgan: Grub just has a funny way to reference hard disk partitions.
[03:43] <CaptainMorgan> doesn't overwrite? so Im good to go then with da Supa?
[03:44] <filip_> jonuk, play around with it. half the fun is figuring it out... i really don't know your harddrive configuration
[03:44] <amphi> bosco: what was your command?
[03:44] <Shadyman> CaptainMorgan: Dunno.
[03:44] <jonuk> filip_: thanks for all your help
[03:44] <filip_> jonuk, i tried my best
[03:44] <CaptainMorgan> thing is.. I forget which partition Linux is on..
[03:44] <amphi> jonuk: you can mess with this stuff from the grub shell
[03:44] <CaptainMorgan> 2 or 3
[03:44] <bosco> amphi,   sudo mount /dev/hda1/harddrive/
[03:44] <jonuk> filip_: you did a good job
[03:44] <amphi> bosco: arrggh
[03:44] <CaptainMorgan> and it's not hda.. it's sda
[03:44] <jonuk> amphi: how do i get to the grub shell
[03:44] <amphi> jonuk: at boot time
[03:44] <bosco> amphi, sry
[03:45] <filip_> jonuk, thankyou.
[03:45] <bosco> amphi,   sudo mount /dev/hda1/harddrive/
[03:45] <amphi> bosco: what is the directory you made to mount it on?
[03:45] <Weiss> c
[03:45] <bosco> harddrive
[03:45] <amphi> bosco: /harddrive?
[03:45] <amphi> bosco: the absolute path
[03:45] <bosco> amphi,  yes
[03:45] <CaptainMorgan> bosco.. how's Daisy?
[03:46] <amphi> bosco: mount /dev/hda1 /harddrive should work (note the space after /dev/hda1)
[03:46] <bosco> CaptainMorgan, who is daisy
[03:46] <CaptainMorgan> dunno
[03:47] <MENDIGO> can anyobody helpme???
[03:47] <amphi> bosco: not the mountpoint, in any case :)

[04:03] <rockzman> gdb*
[04:03] <amphi> rockzman: ok, do set args ''
[04:03] <docgnome> Why does the website have a listing for Scheme48 package but I can't find it with apt?
[04:03] <rockzman> args async amphi ?
[04:03] <bosco> DBO, one sec let me get you the link
[04:03] <amphi> rockzman: no, just '' to clear that
[04:04] <rockzman> oki its clear
[04:04] <amphi> rockzman: try run again and see if it crashes
[04:05] <filip_> docgnome, do you have universe and multiverse in your apt sources?
[04:05] <rockzman> amphi, it says "Program exited normally" and keeps not opening
[04:05] <amphi> rockzman: it may not, a friend of mine uses a filemanager under gdb all the time, as it crashes consistently normally, and never under gdb ;)
[04:05] <docgnome> filip_: yes
[04:05] <filip_> docgnome, i found scheme48 in mine
[04:05] <rockzman> amphi, well i typed "gdb" on terminal then i just paste everything u said
[04:05] <amphi> rockzman: ok; just quit gdb (control d), and start again
[04:05] <docgnome> wierd.
[04:06] <rockzman> amphi, roger that
[04:06] <amphi> rockzman: don't paste, type [enter]  means hit enter ;)
[04:06] <rockzman> lol sure
[04:06] <rockzman> (gdb) file /usr/bin/xmms
[04:06] <amphi> rockzman: and run it
[04:06] <filip_> docgnome, try synaptic or adept
[04:07] <rockzman> amphi, (gdb) set args -async
[04:07] <filip_> docgnome, or, do you want my sources.list?
[04:07] <bosco> DBO, http://pastebin.com/725849
[04:07] <amphi> rockzman: no, don't do that, xmms doesn't understand -async
[04:07] <rockzman> amphi, ah that is what u said me to do
[04:07] <Orborde> Can anyone point me to a compiling stuff from source HOWTO for Ubuntu?
[04:07] <rockzman> amphi, i'll reopen then
[04:07] <docgnome> filip_: sources.list would be good
[04:07] <amphi> rockzman: before xmms rejected it
[04:07] <tritium> Orborde: start by installing build-essential
[04:08] <docgnome> filip_: since synaptic can't find it either
[04:08] <filip_> docgnome, http://godd.no-ip.org/sources.list is mine
[04:08] <nickpresta> I was curious if anyone knew a way to fix the fact that amarok (1.3.x) uses > 95% CPU usage whenever it's open/playing a song?
[04:09] <filip_> nickpresta, buy a faster cpu? jk
[04:09] <rockzman> amphi, ah sure it is opened but not "working" there is only a window called "xmms" but i cant turn into the program
[04:09] <amphi> rockzman: just run it under gdb, with no args, until it crashes, and do bt, and see if you see anything useful
[04:09] <nickpresta> heh. It's not a speed demon, a P3, 733Mhz, 256 RAM system, but 98% CPU usage is insane
[04:09] <amphi> rockzman: look at gdb, has it segfaulted?
[04:09] <docgnome> filip_: you are using dapper...
[04:09] <rockzman> amphi, yea

[04:10] <DBO> sorry
[04:10] <rockzman> tritium, sure, sorry.
[04:10] <amphi> DBO: you found it? congrats ;)
[04:10] <filip_> docgnome, i thought i was using breezy. just using dapper repos
[04:10] <DBO> amphi, yeah, once we got the sata thing panned out it was pie
[04:10] <rockzman> amphi, what bt means
[04:10] <amphi> rockzman: backtrace
[04:10] <docgnome> filip_: oh, i didn't know you could do that.
[04:11] <amphi> rockzman: it's a call stack trace
[04:11] <rockzman> amphi, it says
[04:11] <filip_> i don't know actually... what's the command to find out the version of ubuntu you're using?
[04:11] <amphi> rockzman: pastebin it
[04:11] <tritium> filip_: lsb_release -a
[04:11] <DBO> amphi, its really not the dumbest thing we've done.  I spent near a minute trying to figure out where the mouse button was on my cow-orkers new mac... turns out the whole thing is a button!
[04:11] <nemetz1> does LVM support vfat?

[04:12] <amphi> rockzman: just pastebin the output already
[04:12] <bosco> srry i thought it would put it all into 2 senteces
[04:12] <docgnome> filip_: well that would explain why i can't find it. i'm using breezy
[04:12] <DBO> bosco, abotu that pastebin thing... =)
[04:12] <rockzman> amphi, i didnt get you
[04:12] <filip_> docgnome, i do wonder if you could use my sources.list and use the dapper one
[04:12] <amphi> !pastebin
[04:12] <ubotu> from memory, 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
[04:13] <DBO> bosco, "sudo mount -t ext /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2"
[04:13] <jodanlime> hi, I'm running dapper flight 6 and I was wondering if there is a way to change the audio system, I dont even know what its on
[04:13] <hasan> is there a linux program that lets linux users share files like music and videos?
[04:13] <bosco> mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext'
[04:13] <amphi> bosco: ext3
[04:13] <rockzman> amphi, sure, gimme a min
[04:14] <DBO> amphi, that errored out actually...  I meant to say ext2
[04:14] <bosco> amphi, look at the long message i posted that should have gone in past bin and that is what comes up when i EXT3
[04:14] <hasan> hey guys, does anyone know any program that lets us share files...like music or videos? i want to download some MP3s....
[04:14] <Orborde> tritium: I've done that. Is there a nice guide somewhere that walks me through the vagaries of checkinstall?
[04:15] <jodanlime> hasan, just open synaptic and search for p2p
[04:15] <tritium> !checkinstall
[04:15] <ubotu> checkinstall is probably http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
[04:15] <amphi> bosco: that's not your swap partition, is it? ;)
[04:15] <bluezy> Greetings, I have a question, when I try to do apt-get install blblabla it tells me E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[04:15] <bluezy> E: Unable to lock the download directory
[04:15] <bluezy>   What can I do to fix that?
[04:15] <amphi> rockzman: it may not be overly useful, but worth a try
[04:15] <nickpresta> Use: sudo apt-get install package_name
[04:15] <DBO> bosco, "sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda2" im an idiot
[04:15] <_paola> ayuda?
[04:15] <_paola> ayudaaaa
[04:15] <rockzman> amphi, thanks im going to dl it
[04:15] <tritium> !es
[04:15] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[04:15] <amphi> bluezy: you have some other package manager open?
[04:16] <jodanlime> anybody know of a way to change the audio driver in dapper flight 6?
[04:16] <bosco> DBO, allright it just went to the next line does that mean it is mounted
[04:16] <amphi> bosco: w00t
[04:16] <DBO> bosco, yeah, ls /mnt/sda2
[04:16] <optish> are there any linux tools that let you convert a logical ext3 partition to primary?
[04:16] <rockzman> amphi, how do i unpack deb?
[04:16] <tritium> rockzman: see dpkg manpage
[04:16] <DBO> bosco, I meant to tell you sda1 from the start, but switched to sda2 when I typed it out because that is what I mount all the time on my system
[04:16] <amphi> rockzman: dpkg -i to install - what are you doing?
[04:17] <AnsiC> hello
[04:17] <rockzman> amphi, installing webboard on gnome
[04:17] <bosco> DBO,  allright i am in my hard drive i CD'd TO it
[04:17] <DBO> bosco, ok, what did you want to do now?
[04:17] <amphi> rockzman: oh - you could just use the pastebin ;)
[04:17] <AnsiC> i have a router, is configured, but i cannot have access to my host the use dynamic dns
[04:17] <DBO> bosco, what problem are you trying to fix?
[04:17] <bluezy> Amphi I thought so but I have closed everything and it just is not the case...
[04:17] <AnsiC> the web browser cannot have access to my host
[04:17] <hasan> I typed in p2p on synaptic and nothing came up that was a program like BItttorent or Kazaa
[04:18] <AnsiC> and i have update it now
[04:18] <AnsiC> on www.dyndns.org
[04:18] <amphi> *closed
[04:18] <AnsiC> apache2 is installed
[04:18] <rockzman> amphi, i dont how to
[04:18] <DBO> !tell hasan about frostwire
[04:18] <amphi> !tell rockzman about pastebin
[04:18] <amphi> rockzman: just go to the url
[04:19] <bosco> DBO, now what do i do if it tells me it cant  it gets to MOUNTING ROOT FILE SYSTEM WHEN I BOOT  but then it tells me it cant RUN /BIN/SH
[04:19] <rockzman> k
[04:19] <jodanlime> they closed darwin? closed it down or closed the source?
[04:19] <DBO> bosco, ls /mnt/sda2/bin/sh
[04:19] <amphi> jodanlime: closed the source
[04:19] <jodanlime> damn
[04:19] <amphi> jodanlime: not a great loss IMHO ;)
[04:20] <bosco> DBO, allright it outputed the same thing i typed in
[04:20] <jodanlime> I kinda liked using it, it ran alot like bsd, only slight differences, guess if I want it back I will just download bsd
[04:20] <DBO> bosco, well it exists...
[04:20] <bosco> DBO,  ok what do i do now to fix the prob
[04:20] <Plouj> so, how do I configure avi and wmv files to open in mplayer instead of the "movie player"?
[04:20] <bosco> DBO, now that i am in my actuall hard drive
[04:20] <rockzman> amphi, i did put ma name and the text so i just click on send
[04:21] <DBO> bosco, mv /mnt/sda2/bin/sh /mnt/sda2/bin/sh.breezy
[04:21] <DBO> bosco, cp /bin/sh /mnt/sda2/bin/sh
[04:21] <amphi> jodanlime: why would you want to run bsd as a monolithic task on top of mach?
[04:21] <DBO> bosco, those will probably require sudo in front of them
[04:21] <DBO> amphi, a good question indeed
[04:21] <amphi> rockzman: url?
[04:21] <bosco> DBO, ok i copeid that file now where do i past it to
[04:21] <jodanlime> amphi, I just kinda liked the way it worked, I like linux more, but I use macs alot so it was neet to use the insides without all the extra stuff
[04:21] <Orborde> tritium: Thanks
[04:22] <DBO> bosco, did you put the two commands I gave you into terminal?
[04:22] <tritium> sure, Orborde
[04:22] <bosco> DBO,  ok what is the file that i copy fist things first i need this to work not to be mean
[04:22] <amphi> jodanlime: I've messed with netbsd a bit, and it seems nice; I just don't get darwin at all
[04:22] <DBO> bosco... dont do it from the GUI...
[04:22] <amphi> rockzman: I don't understand (it's late ;)
[04:22] <rockzman> amphi, it is still working ^^
[04:23] <bosco> DBO, i am doing it from a Raw termainal
[04:23] <rockzman> amphi, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14240
[04:23] <rockzman> is that wut u mean amphi ?
[04:23] <jodanlime> amphi, if you've ever done unixy stuff in macs its alot easier to switch between, thats the only real thing, and the only reason I use macs is for video and music editing
[04:23] <bosco> DBO, i hate GUI for that stuff i use terminal for 95% of my work
[04:24] <DBO> bosco, run the command "sudo mv /mnt/sda2/bin/sh /mnt/sda2/bin/sh.breezy && sudo cp /bin/sh /mnt/sda2/bin/sh"
[04:24] <hasan> how do i run frostwire after it is installed
[04:24] <jodanlime> does anybody know how to switch from alsa to oss in dapper flight 6?
[04:24] <bosco> DBO all one command
[04:24] <DBO> bosco, yep, just copy and paste it
[04:24] <hasan> also i had trouble doing the dos2unix part of it because my terminal said  "unable to access file"
[04:24] <bosco> DBO, allright it went to the next line so it is fixed now
[04:25] <amphi> rockzman: not very illuminating :(
[04:25] <hasan> ...does anyone know what to type into the terminal to run frost wire? Also i looked in the wiki guide and it said to do a dos2unix on a file and when i typed it in it said "unable to access file"
[04:25] <rockzman> amphi, bad... look i cant run mplayer also do u have an alternative ?
[04:25] <DBO> well I dont know, i really have no clue what your issue seems to be.  Can you post the end of /mnt/sda2/var/log/kern.log to pastebin?
[04:25] <DBO> bosco ^^
[04:25] <amphi> rockzman: what does mplayer do?
[04:25] <rockzman> same error
[04:26] <rockzman> amphi, i tried to run to help you in diagnostic
[04:26] <DBO> amphi, whats his issue? =)
[04:26] <DBO> one and a half brainzzz are better than one
[04:26] <amphi> DBO: xmms (and apparently mplayer) segfaulting; there's a bt of xmms dying at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14240
[04:27] <DBO> rockzman, what video card are you running?
[04:27] <bosco> DBO,  when i try and boot from my hard drive it goes through the normal boot sequence till it gets to MOUNTING ROOT FILE SYSTEM then it goes to a black screen and outputs that it cant EXECUTE /BIN/SH
[04:28] <rockzman> DBO, GForce FX 5200 i installed a nvidia-glx driver ( i dunno why i added this info but there it goes ^^)
[04:28] <amphi> bosco: does bin/sh exist in the mount point?
[04:28] <DBO> amphi, it does yes
[04:29] <nemetz1> is vfat LVM compatible ?
[04:29] <amphi> rockzman: could be the driver; there's openGL reference near the point of death
[04:29] <DBO> rockzman "sudo apt-get reinstall libglu1-mesa"
[04:29] <rockzman> oki bosses X:
[04:29] <bosco> amphi, yes it exist
[04:29] <Rhine> How do i play .m4a in rhythmbox?
[04:30] <DBO> amphi, i think his problem is with mesa, is he running dapper?
[04:30] <eddiestone> Rhine, http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org
[04:30] <soundmaster80> I cannot get linux-restricted-modules-386 to install
[04:30] <DBO> bosco, give a reboot a run for me please =)
[04:30] <rockzman> DBO, nah
[04:30] <amphi> DBO: IIRC he said not, but he also said something about installing 50MB of upgrades ;)
[04:30] <rockzman> amphi, rofl
[04:30] <bosco> DBO, ok it may be 15 min then cuz if it doesnt work then i have to reboot from the live CD and it takes a wile
[04:30] <DBO> rockzman, did you do the reinstall?
[04:31] <DBO> bosco, I know, im really sorry =(
[04:31] <defendguin_> ugggg why is apt broken?   someone needs to upload the new l-r-m package
[04:31] <DBO> bosco, I will wait for you... Ill wait forever...  *floats off into the abyss*
[04:31] <amphi> heheh
[04:31] <rockzman> DBO, acculley i'll search this package in synaptic
[04:31] <tritium> defendguin_: that's a dapper issue, and apt is not broken
[04:31] <rockzman> E: Couldn't find package libglul-mesa
[04:31] <bluezy> is there a way to reset the apt thing?
[04:31] <bosco> DBO, it is ok i thank you for your help with me that is enough in it of it self
[04:32] <amphi> rockzman: 1-mesa not lowercase L -mesa
[04:32] <DBO> bosco, give the reboot a run
[04:32] <bosco> DBO,    *reboots laptop*
[04:32] <Plouj> what native Gnome audio player is closest to amarok in functionality?
[04:32] <defendguin_> tritium: you will have to excuse me i love complaining about things i didnt pay for
[04:32] <defendguin_> ;-P
[04:32] <tritium> defendguin_: :)
[04:32] <rockzman> amphi, k
[04:32] <DBO> Plouj, Listen, just Listen
[04:32] <Plouj> DBO: what?
[04:32] <Rhine> eddiestone, thanks for that link i think it will work fine great link btw
[04:32] <DBO> Plouj, no, thats the name of it
[04:33] <rockzman> amphi, E: Couldn't find package libgluL-mesa
[04:33] <DBO> rockzman, its a 1
[04:33] <DBO> libglu(ONE)-mesa
[04:33] <rockzman> i tried both
[04:33] <rockzman> yea
[04:33] <rockzman> i just paste
[04:33] <defendguin_> tritium: i just get anxioux about kernel releases these days because they tent to fix some hardware problems i have
[04:33] <Plouj> DBO: is the package called "listen"?
[04:34] <defendguin_> s/tent/tend
[04:34] <rockzman> libglu1-mesa is already the newest version.
[04:34] <rockzman> D
[04:34] <rockzman> DBO,
[04:34] <DBO> Plouj, i dont think so, you have to add a repo for it, google search listen gnome
[04:34] <DBO> rockzman, "sudo apt-get reinstall libglu1-mesa"
[04:34] <amphi> rockzman: pasting wouldn't switch a '1' to an 'l' ;)
[04:34] <tritium> defendguin_: ah, ok
[04:35] <rockzman> :P i did reinstall now
[04:35] <amphi> rockzman: or apt-get install --reinstall libglu1-mesa
[04:35] <rockzman> amphi, i should try running now?
[04:36] <DBO> amphi, yeah, teach me not to check syntax
[04:36] <amphi> rockzman: sure
[04:36] <rockzman> amphi, same error
[04:36] <rockzman> amphi,  should i try to remove driver?
[04:36] <DBO> rockzman, switch your driver to nv temporarly
[04:36] <bosco> DBO, it worked i am on my actuall ubuntu now thank you
[04:37] <rockzman> DBO, how?
[04:37] <Orborde> Do I need to pass anything to checkinstall to make it set dependencies on the new package, or is that simply impossible at the level that checkinstall works (i.e. raw .deb files)?
[04:37] <amphi> bosco: cool; what did you do, apart from mount your hd / ?
[04:37] <DBO> rockzman, amphi will tell you how =)
[04:37] <DBO> amphi, we switched the /bin/sh with a known good one from CD
[04:37] <rockzman> DBO,  :)
[04:37] <amphi> rockzman: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:37] <rockzman> amphi, ok
[04:37] <amphi> DBO: uhuh
[04:38] <DBO> amphi, thats all
[04:38] <bosco> amphi, i copied the file /bin/sh cuz that was the one that said that couldnt execute so i put it back into my hard drive and overwrote the other one
[04:38] <DBO> bosco, actually you have a copy of the bad one at /bin/sh.breezy, could you please email that to me?

[04:42] <DBO> why does everyone assume its dapper???
[04:42] <tritium> Sounds like the missing -23 l-r-m problem

[04:43] <DBO> tritium, naw, hes getting GL related errors with his xserver

[05:05] <KaosX> I got my last Google interview tommorow.
[05:05] <blackgecko> nickrud: yeah but when i do a   >> grep SwapTotal /proc/meminfo  SwapTotal:           0 kB

[05:08] <DBO> ActivitY, wait till you try Xgl, your ADD wont go away for weeks
[05:08] <Xenguy> ActivitY: it's all in your mind =)
[05:08] <ActivitY> ubuntu rocks my socks
[05:08] <ActivitY> specially being new to linux and all ^^
[05:09] <Xenguy> ubuntu is a fine place to start
[05:09] <rockzman> amphi, i just cant believe yet x=
[05:09] <DBO> ActivitY, no matter how much we love to toot ubuntu's horn, that talk is for #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:09] <Jeff1983> is there a way to make a program automatically run when ubuntu starts up
[05:09] <amphi> rockzman: going well?
[05:09] <ActivitY> okie dokie :)

[05:12] <Xenguy> fnord
[05:12] <amphi> blackgecko: did you do the swapoff mkswap swapon dance?
[05:13] <thiago_> I'm with some problems configuring a dial up internet connection with Kubuntu. Can someone help me?
[05:13] <blackgecko> amphi: nop
[05:13] <blackgecko> amphi: ill do it now
[05:14] <amphi> blackgecko: you looked at /proc/swaps?
[05:14] <blackgecko> amphi: yeah nothing there
[05:14] <blackgecko> amphi: swapoff -a ??
[05:14] <amphi> blackgecko: what happens if you do swapon /dev/hda7 ?
[05:15] <amphi> blackgecko: any change in /proc/swaps ? or error?
[05:15] <blackgecko> amphi: well its now ther
[05:15] <blackgecko> amphi: looks like it wasnt formated
[05:15] <|Sivik|> anyone in here program?
[05:16] <amphi> blackgecko: you did mkswap just now?
[05:16] <blackgecko> amphi: yes
[05:17] <amphi> strange... you hadn't swsusp'd  and then booted another session?
[05:17] <evilyoda> okay, how can I get a GeForce 4 440 Go to work in dapper? The new versions of the Nvidia drivers don't work well - there's all kinds of distortion and artifacts on the screen. We downloaded an older driver version, but it won't install, maybe because it wasn't made for the 2.6 kernel. Ideas?
[05:17] <amphi> !dapper
[05:17] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install, or other conversation, dapper will be in this channel from 1st June :-) BUT not until then
[05:17] <gil> how do i set suspend mode automatically
[05:19] <amphi> thiago_: the easiest way to configure dialup I know of is pppconfig
[05:19] <blackgecko> if its worthy for someone ive already configured xgl + compiz on an ati X600 suceesfully, the only problem was with firefox and flash crashing, but solved installing flash player from macromedi
[05:20] <cedriczg> log
[05:20] <amphi> blackgecko: I'm sure many will be happy to hear that
[05:21] <cedriczg> hello people, I need some help about installing AMSN on ubuntu
[05:21] <cedriczg> Just basic help, how to install it
[05:21] <blackgecko> cedriczg: apt-get install amsn
[05:21] <thiago_> amphi: here's the problem: I tried to use pppconfig and kppp. It looks like everything is ok, but when I try to connect, it stops about 10 seconds later
[05:22] <cedriczg> I downloaded the binaries frfom AMSN
[05:22] <cedriczg> are the apt the last ones?
[05:22] <amphi> thiago_: you cans set the debug and kdebug options to get more verbose logging, FWIW
[05:22] <cedriczg> blackgecko, are the files from the apt the last ones?
[05:24] <cedriczg> blackgecko, on the AMSN site they have the 0.95-3
[05:24] <amphi> thiago_: perhaps your isp wants some pap or chap your setup is not currently configured for
[05:25] <blackgecko> cedriczg: maybe not the last ones but the easyest
[05:25] <thiago_> amphi, I tried this, something like HANGUP or SIGHUP was logged just before disconnecting
[05:25] <cedriczg> blackgecko, ok thank you very much
[05:26] <amphi> thiago_: there may have been something before that, like the isp saying 'gimme chap' and yours saying 'no chap here', or some such
[05:27] <thiago_> amphi, What does it mean? (I started using linux a couple of months ago)
[05:28] <amphi> thiago_: that the remote asked for a particular kind of authentication but your end is not set up to provide it
[05:28] <CaptainMorgan> folks how do I edit menu.lst with a livecd? no editor will open
[05:28] <CaptainMorgan> err.. Im using the original breezy as a rescue
[05:28] <Awesome-o2000> last try for my ati card - with DRI enabled I get a black screen of death - I have an ati x800gto - any solutions?
[05:29] <amphi> thiago_: I don't know if that's the cause of your problem, but it's one I've had more than once in the past
[05:29] <thiago_> amphi, I don't know, I remember seeing someting like PAP / CHAP selected in KPPP .
[05:29] <amphi> thiago_: I don't know about kppp I'm afraid
[05:30] <blackgecko> awesome-o2000: to much diferent from an X600 ??? i ave it working just fine ??
[05:30] <thiago_> amphi, sorry for the vague answer, but the computer with the problem isn't here
[05:30] <Awesome-o2000> blackgecko, I have no idea - my card works as long as ati is disabled
[05:30] <CaptainMorgan> arrrgg
[05:31] <cedriczg> blackgecko, well I tried the version on aptget and it is quite old, from 2004
[05:32] <cedriczg> I would be glad if someone guides me on installing AMSN on ubuuntu
[05:32] <amphi> cedriczg: from src?
[05:32] <thiago_> amphi, wait a sec
[05:32] <cedriczg> amphi, yes, from the files frfom the official site
[05:33] <amphi> cedriczg: there should be a README and/or an INSTALL file
[05:33] <blackgecko> Awesome-o2000: dumb question do you tried de ati howto ???
[05:33] <CaptainMorgan> anybody?
[05:34] <cedriczg> amphi, I looked for it, I'll try harder
[05:34] <blackgecko> CaptainMorgan: nano ??
[05:34] <cedriczg> amphi, but the targz has folders with usr and subfolders
[05:34] <amphi> cedriczg: normally, it's ./configure, then make, then sudo make install
[05:34] <CaptainMorgan> nano?
[05:35] <cedriczg> amphi, oh yes, I just tried make
[05:35] <amphi> cedriczg: you may need to install the -dev packages for various libs
[05:35] <Awesome-o2000> blackgecko, yes, before I bothered you all with my own stupid questions :D
[05:35] <MiSS_n00b> Hi people, can somebody please recommend a vnc program I can use with ubuntu/mepis to connect to vnc in windows?
[05:35] <thiago_> amphi, just checked something in this computer. It's using the same server to connect and it's configured to use PAP, just as the troublesome computer
[05:35] <cedriczg> amphi, I guess so
[05:36] <amphi> cedriczg: if it says "can't find libfoo" and you know libfoo is installed, you need to install the libfoo-dev package
[05:36] <blackgecko> Awesome-o2000: im not a guru, but ill try to help, whats the problem ???
[05:36] <CaptainMorgan> what's nano?
[05:36] <amphi> thiago_: troublesome compter has a winmodem? ;)
[05:36] <blackgecko> nano is an editor
[05:36] <amphi> CaptainMorgan: a text editor
[05:36] <cedriczg> amphi, thanx a lot
[05:37] <CaptainMorgan> from the rescue environment?
[05:37] <thiago_> amphi, how did you guessed it?! :)
[05:37] <cedriczg> amphi, In case I have trouble I'll ask again ;)
[05:37] <Awesome-o2000> blackgecko, when I startx the system gives me a black screen of death if I have dri enabled with my fglrx module
[05:37] <thiago_> amphi, it's a Lucent winmodem
[05:37] <Javi> I have installed ubuntu although GRUB failed to install, how can I boot ubuntu on my dual Win2k?
[05:37] <Javi> Please PM tnx
[05:38] <blackgecko> Awesome-o2000: can i have a look at your xorg.conf ?
[05:38] <amphi> thiago_: lucent ones always worked pretty well for me, with the ltmodem driver
[05:38] <Awesome-o2000> blackgecko, yes let me pastebin it
[05:39] <amphi> thiago_: on this laptop is a bastard with a conexant chipset - I struggled for long to make it work with alsa, but in the end I capitulated and used the linuxant driver *blush*
[05:39] <Awesome-o2000> blackgecko, http://pastebin.com/725937
[05:39] <Awesome-o2000> blackgecko, dri is disabled in that of course, otherwise we wouldnt be able to chat :D
[05:40] <amphi> thiago_: linuxant seems to work ok, but 11 modules seems excessive even for a winmodem ;)
[05:40] <rgolden> I have a netgear wg511T wifi card (works fine) but how can I configure it for WPA-TKIP?
[05:41] <tritium> !wpa
[05:41] <ubotu> Enable the universe repository, then "sudo apt-get update", and then "sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant".  See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WPAHowto for more details
[05:41] <thiago_> amphi, i've heard that the lovely Conexant sells the drives for linux
[05:41] <odat> anyone know how to fix weird problems like programs not opening or opening for a second then closing
[05:41] <amphi> rgolden: you need wpa_supplicant I believe
[05:41] <tritium> (see above)
[05:41] <thiago_> amphi, 11 MODULES for a modem!? I'll stop complaining...
[05:41] <amphi> thiago_: linuxant? free @ 14.4 ;)
[05:41] <rgolden> thanks ubotu and amphi
[05:41] <xxxBrandonxxx> 
[05:42] <thiago_> amphi, ouch
[05:42] <syntax_error> has anyone had any problem with azureus when they upgraded to dapper
[05:42] <CaptainMorgan> anybody wanna direct me to how do re-install re-initialize grub? wiki didn't work, and rescue nor SGD worked
[05:42] <tritium> rgolden: ubotu is a bot.  I had him give that info ;)
[05:42] <NickGarvey> !tell syntax_error about dapper
[05:42] <thiago_> amphi, once I had a modem this fast, I neither used it. I was using windows 3.11...
[05:42] <sparkleytone> CaptainMorgan: grub-install /dev/hda for most
[05:42] <syntax_error> nickgarvey:my azureus dont load no more
[05:43] <CaptainMorgan> just hda?
[05:43] <syntax_error> just getting a blank screen
[05:43] <CaptainMorgan> no number
[05:43] <CaptainMorgan> ?
[05:43] <amphi> thiago_: I have a 14.4 hw pcmcia modem somewhere, a motorola 'ultrafast' or summat ;)
[05:43] <sparkleytone> CaptainMorgan: is ubuntu your only os?
[05:43] <CaptainMorgan> no
[05:43] <sparkleytone> what else?
[05:43] <CaptainMorgan> Xp
[05:43] <CaptainMorgan> which IM on now
[05:44] <CaptainMorgan> I can't get Ubuntu
[05:44] <sparkleytone> you'll prob want to grub-install /dev/hda with no #
[05:44] <CaptainMorgan> no number?? hhmm...
[05:44] <sparkleytone> and then configure grub to boot xp as a chainloader
[05:44] <thiago_> amphi, really fast... maybe sometimes faster then my actual connecting (crappy free server)
[05:44] <CaptainMorgan> grub already lists xp as a chainloader..
[05:44] <sparkleytone> CaptainMorgan: it will basically rewrite to your MBR
[05:44] <amphi> thiago_: all I can suggest is setting debug and kdebug in the /etc/ppp/peers/whatever file, tail -f /var/log/syslog and do pon whatever
[05:44] <CaptainMorgan> I read the menu.lst file through rescue
[05:45] <sparkleytone> CaptainMorgan: that is good...now you need to make grub your bootloader...which would mean writing to the drive instead of the partition
[05:45] <amphi> thiago_: and perhaps in the noise in syslog you will find an answer
[05:45] <CaptainMorgan> so no number then..alright Ill try it :)
[05:45] <thiago_> amphi, I'll try it
[05:45] <sparkleytone> CaptainMorgan: if you boot to the cd....
[05:46] <thiago_> amphi, thanks! :)
[05:46] <varsendagger> hey could someone help me with a bit of html?    and css   just basic stuff.    how do i make a background, and is it possible to layer images on top of eachother?
[05:46] <sparkleytone> CaptainMorgan: and do an expert install...then go all the way thru the install until you get to the partitioning part...then press alt-f2...then chroot /target /bin/bash
[05:46] <amphi> thiago_: good luck
[05:46] <sparkleytone> CaptainMorgan: then grub-install /dev/hda ... you won't need to reinstall the whole damn os
[05:46] <NickGarvey> :)
[05:47] <nnn0> varsendagger, that's what we hat #html and #css for :)
[05:47] <amphi> thiago_: it might also be worth looking into what exact chipset the modem has, you might not be using the correct/best driver
[05:47] <CaptainMorgan> sparkleytone, so I don't boot to rescue?
[05:47] <i\o> I updated stuff using the update manager and now my wireless isn't working.. is there any way to roll back?
[05:47] <sparkleytone> CaptainMorgan: never tried the rescue so i dunno
[05:47] <thiago_> amphi, ok
[05:48] <CaptainMorgan> so I boot to the cd and go all the way up to the partitioning
[05:48] <thiago_> amphi, bye!
[05:48] <amphi> bye
[05:48] <nnn0> varsendagger, and w3.org
[05:50] <Centaur5> I read that the newest kernel has support for my wireless but I still have to manually load the driver after booting.  Would a reinstall fix that?
[05:50] <amphi> Centaur5: you could do 'echo module_name | sudo tee -a /etc/modules' where module_name is the name of the, er, module
[05:51] <amphi> Centaur5: that'll cause the module to be loaded at boot time
[05:52] <Centaur5> amphi: I already put the name of the module in /etc/modules a few weeks ago
[05:52] <Awesome-o2000> that didnt work
[05:52] <hasan> has anyone set up MYTHTV and does anyone have recommendations on it?
[05:52] <jack|ass> so i have a box with two network adapters.  One is named eth0 and the other was arbitrarily assigned eth2.  How can i change the name of an interface?
[05:52] <jack|ass> (I want to use eth0 and eth1
[05:53] <amphi> Centaur5: and it's still not loaded at boot time?
[05:53] <Centaur5> amphi: No, I thought that was very strange
[05:53] <amphi> jack|ass: ifrename
[05:53] <amphi> Centaur5: when you modprobe it manually, do you need to set any args?
[05:53] <Centaur5> amphi: I installed the drivers for video as well but lspci still says that's unknown too.
[05:53] <jack|ass> amphi: how does it choose them in the first place?
[05:53] <Awesome-o2000> anyone have any suggestions? I installed the ATI drivers as the wiki told me to but I get a black screen of death when I start x with DRI enabled
[05:53] <amphi> jack|ass: I don't know why you get eth2
[05:54] <ShellMaza> Awesom, how many DVI ports?
[05:54] <Centaur5> amphi: I go into the drivers folder that I saved it and do sudo ./load debug=0
[05:54] <amphi> jack|ass: if they're modules, they're assigned in the order the modules are loaded
[05:54] <jack|ass> amphi: yeah, but it skips eth1.
[05:54] <ShellMaza> if 2, shutdown, switch the DVI cable to the other dvi port, boot pc
[05:54] <amphi> Centaur5: this is ipw2200?
[05:54] <Centaur5> amphi: ipw3945
[05:55] <amphi> Centaur5: ah... ipw2200 loads here from /etc/modules - I assume you did make install?
[05:55] <ShellMaza> Awesome-o2000, how many dvi ports does ur video card have?
[05:55] <Awesome-o2000> ShellMaza, theres one DVI port and im using it
[05:55] <ShellMaza> look
[05:55] <ShellMaza> oh
[05:56] <ShellMaza> never mind...
[05:56] <Centaur5> amphi: The instructions had me do make install with ieee80211 but then it had me copy firmware files and the module to the proper locations.
[05:56] <Awesome-o2000> :((
[05:56] <Centaur5> amphi: After that the final step was ./load debug=0
[05:57] <amphi> Centaur5: if you inload, does modprobe ipw3945 work?
[05:57] <amphi> *unload
[05:58] <amphi> Centaur5: BTW, does that driver have master mode?
[05:58] <Centaur5> amphi: I never tried that, after booting I tried typing that but I never tried unloading after having it work then modprobing it
[05:58] <Centaur5> amphi: I honestly don't know what master mode is
[05:58] <amphi> lets the card act as an AP
[05:58] <jack|ass> hrm
[05:59] <Centaur5> amphi: I know that it's still in development, for some reason the very newest one won't work for me.  I don't know what features they have built in.
[05:59] <amphi> Centaur5: so you have successfully modprobed it? then it should work from /etc/modules; perhaps it wants a depmod -a?
[06:00] <amphi> Centaur5: heh, I'm using an oldish version of ipw2200, it works well enough for me ATM
[06:00] <Centaur5> amphi: No, I never was successful doing modprobe, I always had to do the ./load script.  I already did depmod -a when tring modprobe
[06:01] <Centaur5> amphi: All the instructions and things I looked up didn't get me anywhere and it's getting annoying loading from the script every time  :)
[06:02] <amphi> Centaur5: when you get it to work with modprobe, it'll work from /etc/modules ;) what error does modprobe give you?
[06:03] <amphi> Centaur5: did you try make install in the module src dir?
[06:03] <Centaur5> amphi: That much I don't remember, would that error be in a log since it is in /etc/modules?
[06:03] <amphi> Centaur5: where is the module?
[06:03] <Centaur5> amphi: There isn't a make file in the driver directory
[06:03] <amphi> Centaur5: just unload it and modprobe it now
[06:04] <amphi> Centaur5: FWIW, mine is /lib/modules/2.6.11.12/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko
[06:05] <amphi> Centaur5: but ISTR that there's some daemon with your driver?
[06:05] <amphi> Centaur5: it may not be just a module, now that I think of it
[06:06] <Centaur5> amphi: Hmm...with a new kernel update would it get rid of the old directory in /lib/modules?
[06:07] <amphi> Centaur5: no, but modules are in /lib/modules/`uname -r`
[06:07] <Centaur5> amphi: Wait, I found it. They had me copy the module to /lib/modules/2.6.15-21-686
[06:08] <Centaur5> amphi: I just noticed that I have the new 2.6.15-22 kernel though, I guess that might be it?
[06:08] <Centaur5> amphi: Should I create a /net/wireless directory and place it there?
[06:09] <jrattner1> Whats a fun free multiplayer game
[06:09] <amphi> Centaur5: nothing will find it in /net/wireless - but you should install it for the new kernel
[06:09] <Centaur5> amphi: I actually had to do that when the new kernel came out....well I had to reinstall the ieee80211 but that was it
[06:10] <Centaur5> amphi: the 2.6.15-22 is the one I was told has the built in kernel support so I guess that's why I haven't had to reinstall it?
[06:10] <amphi> Centaur5: dunno - I build my own kernels, and build the driver when I upgrade
[06:11] <Centaur5> amphi: I tried stripping down a kernel but I got errors trying to compile.  I don't think I know enough about what I can take out.
[06:11] <amphi> Centaur5: if it's in the kernel, it should modprobe - perhaps you should look at that load script and see what it does
[06:11] <Centaur5> amphi: Good idea, I should have thought of that
[06:13] <amphi> has the ieee80211 stuff not been merged into the kernel yet? I'm still on 2.6.11 ;)
[06:13] <Centaur5> amphi: I think this new driver needs a newer ieee80211 version.  It looks like the script is loading ieee80211 before it attempts the driver.
[06:13] <babo> Has anyone got any idea as to why my crontab won't execute commands that I hand to it ... ?
[06:14] <amphi> Centaur5: this is what may be giving you grief, "The binary user space regulatory daemon"
[06:14] <babo> The cron process is running and I've checked permissions ... even when i run as root ... I get nothing ... :-(
[06:14] <Centaur5> amphi: I wouldn't know, should that be an error that shows up somewhere?
[06:14] <amphi> Centaur5: you probably need to have that start up before the module is loaded
[06:15] <amphi> Centaur5: that's what I dimly recalled reading about
[06:15] <eth0-noob> ...
[06:15] <eth0-noob> can someone help me?
[06:15] <eth0-noob> i hate my computer.
[06:15] <amphi> Centaur5: have a look at the load script, I bet it starts that thing up before or after loading the module
[06:15] <Centaur5> amphi: Yeah, and it checks for the firmware
[06:16] <eth0-noob> i try to play music with xmms or anything else, and it says either 1, it cannot open it for reading or 2, (xmms) it just goes through all music really fast
[06:16] <amphi> Centaur5: here's the README for the nasty thing: http://bughost.org/ipw3945/daemon/README.ipw3945d
[06:17] <amphi> Centaur5: that needs to be swiftly RE'd ;)
[06:17] <eth0-noob> i used ls to see what was up ... and it all says "permission denied" i even sudo chmod +777 all of it
[06:17] <eth0-noob> nothing changed... piece of shit (excuse my french)
[06:17] <amphi> eth0-noob: chmod 777 is not wise
[06:18] <Centaur5> amphi: Alright, I'll check that out then.  Perhaps I'll copy the firmware files again and the driver into the new /lib/modules directory and see if I can get the stupid thing going.
[06:18] <eth0-noob> i could chown... but that didnt work either.
[06:18] <eth0-noob> i just wanna  play music...
[06:18] <accrc> I am new to this and #1. I want to know how to make my Lexmark printer, scanner usable here. #2. I want to add universe to games. I have been told but it is not working. I wonder if my program is loaded right? Is it me or the program I need help I like this idea but I am stuck. #3.I went to the help page to print out general help and it is a language of the PC.
[06:18] <Centaur5> amphi: Oh, I do have the regulatory demon copied there.
[06:18] <crimsun> eth0-noob: pastebin: ``cat /proc/asound/cards && tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat && lspci -v && lspci -nv && amixer -c0''
[06:19] <amphi> Centaur5: fw should be fine; I reckon the module fails to load, or then doesn't work, from /etc/modules, because you must explicitly start the revolting regulatory daemon
[06:19] <Centaur5> amphi: Uh oh, I have programs crashing left and right  :)
[06:19] <GMullen> is there a way to make sure i have full read/write for NTFS?
[06:19] <amphi> Centaur5: yeah, but if you don't use the load script, you must perhaps start the daemon manually?
[06:19] <kwtm> I've forgotten the command for either apt-get or dpkg to clean up the package database if it has been left in a mess, such as if the power goes out in the middle of an install/configure.  What was the command again?
[06:20] <amphi> kwtm: apt-get -f install perhaps
[06:20] <kwtm> amphi: Will try.  Thanks.
[06:20] <Ethh4x> Which Distro is better Gentoo or Ubuntu
[06:20] <eth0-noob> wtf
[06:20] <Centaur5> amphi: Yeah, I think I'm going to copy everything again and make sure everything is in the right place with all these new updates coming out.  I'm sure it will start going then.
[06:20] <amphi> Ethh4x: debian
[06:20] <eth0-noob> omfg i hate this im reinstalling ubuntu
[06:21] <VR_> is it a good idea to install breezy "server", and then update to dapper?
[06:21] <Ethh4x> I don't want a big distro
[06:21] <amphi> Centaur5: if the load script works ok, everything is fine
[06:21] <GMullen> is there a way to make sure i have full read/write for NTFS?
[06:21] <eth0-noob> im also going to kill myself now because i dont understand...
[06:21] <Ethh4x> 7 CD installation I want a small and good distro
[06:21] <eth0-noob> goodybe.
[06:21] <amphi> Centaur5: you could always just call the load script at boot time ;)
[06:21] <Centaur5> amphi: Okay, are you in here often?
[06:21] <amphi> Centaur5: from time to time
[06:21] <eth0-noob> ...
[06:21] <spikeb> debian can be netinstalled
[06:21] <eth0-noob> stupid computer
[06:21] <spikeb> one small netinst cd
[06:21] <Centaur5> amphi: I thought about researching how to do that but figured it's a ghetto way to do it  :)
[06:21] <tritium> eth0-noob: calm down, there is good help here
[06:22] <Centaur5> amphi: Alright, I just figure I have to disconnect to do all this and I'll try to let you know if it worked or not.
[06:22] <amphi> Centaur5: ghetto-tip: you could call it from /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh ;)
[06:23] <Centaur5> amphi: haha, if reinstalling all this doesn't work I"ll do it!  :)
[06:23] <amphi> Centaur5: good luck
[06:23] <Centaur5> Thanks amphi, I really appreciate it.  Hope to be in your shoes someday having all the answers  :)
[06:23] <Ethh4x> Gentoo is better then Ubuntu
[06:23] <amphi> regulatory daemon *snort*
[06:24] <kwtm> Just a comment: thank goodness for this ubuntu forum!  Thanks, gurus.
[06:24] <accrc> I'm waiting and I don't know if someone will or can HELP ME
[06:25] <crimsun> !ask
[06:25] <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.
[06:25] <amphi> accrc: what does #3 mean?
[06:26] <megasquid> how do i set the windowmanager in ubuntu, somehow i forgot?
[06:27] <accrc> i COULDN'T GET HELP TO PTINT IN ENGLISH
[06:27] <tritium> accrc: could you please lower your case?
[06:27] <Madpilot> accrc, lay off the all caps, please
[06:27] <amphi> accrc: please don't shout
[06:27] <accrc> sorry
[06:27] <amphi> accrc: what language did it print?
[06:28] <accrc> none it came up in un readable sysab
[06:28] <amphi> sysab>
[06:28] <amphi> er, ?
[06:29] <toad013> has anyone used xnest?
[06:30] <accrc> computer laungage
[06:32] <amphi> accrc: what is your default language?
[06:33] <accrc> english
[06:33] <budluva> any suggestions on a good firefox alternative that uses less memory
[06:33] <ActivitY> back ^^
[06:34] <spikbebi1> budluva: opera?
[06:34] <toad013> i like opera
[06:34] <budluva> ill try it, just that im using my machine via ssh, and firefox seems slow
[06:34] <reggaemanu> budluva, maybe epiphany
[06:35] <Spikbebis> or konqueror
[06:35] <narg> can you cap a process to a certain % of cpu?
[06:35] <Cyphir> yea epiphany is a good one
[06:35] <narg> budluva: konq, lynx :)
[06:35] <reggaemanu> opera isn't really faster than firefox...it is also an heavy app
[06:35] <accrc> it was not a language any one could read unless they can read boxes ooooo's
[06:35] <reggaemanu> epiphany is light
[06:35] <budluva> thanks for the suggestions
[06:35] <Cyphir> anyone use a composite manager?
[06:35] <budluva> tryin epiphany now
[06:35] <toad013> xgl/compiz
[06:35] <reggaemanu> Cyphir, sure
[06:36] <reggaemanu> xgl/compiz powah :p
[06:36] <Cyphir> i love fade and drop shadows =P
[06:36] <Cyphir> even though it crashes on me alot
[06:36] <toad013> i can't get my xnest working so i can use java swing apps
[06:36] <reggaemanu> what graphic card have you got?
[06:36] <amphi> Cyphir: have to suffer for teh candies, huh? ;)
[06:36] <Cyphir> mvidia
[06:37] <Cyphir> amphi: yea =P
[06:37] <Cyphir> but i have a toggle button to turn it off / on
[06:37] <reggaemanu> toad013, on xgl/compiz? the bug with java apps only appears on j2re 1.5, if you use the java blackboc 1.4 that works fine
[06:37] <accrc> maybe I should ask, what should I choose to open it with?
[06:37] <reggaemanu> no need to run an xnest server
[06:37] <budluva> just did an apt-get of epiphany-browser and went to go fire it up, got an error saying startup failed: unable to determine the address of the message bus
[06:37] <budluva> any suggestions on how i go about fixing this
[06:38] <reggaemanu> Cyphir, hum with nvidia xgl works really fine
[06:38] <toad013> would i have problems using blackboc if i'm using the j2sdk?
[06:38] <reggaemanu> budluva, it's pretty odd
[06:38] <Cyphir> Reggaemanu: yea i dunno why sometimes my panel just disspaers and killall gnome-panel doesnt work
[06:39] <Awesome-o2000> I got it!!! I had to compile them myself
[06:39] <Awesome-o2000> direct rendering: Yes'
[06:39] <CaptainMorgan> ls
[06:39] <CaptainMorgan> oops
[06:39] <fender__> personally i prefer sun's 1.4 to blackdown's one
[06:39] <CaptainMorgan> sparkleytone, you da man maing - hda worked
[06:40] <fender__> it's sometimes bit unstable... at least for me
[06:40] <reggaemanu> Cyphir, you are are pretty unlucky ^^ I never heard spoken about this problem
[06:40] <accrc> cane you give me a help www address?
[06:40] <Cyphir> reggaemanu: hmm i guess
[06:40] <Cyphir> regaemanu: at least Open Office has a recover feature and you can get a recoverlike feature for firefox
[06:41] <stfn> budluva: "message bus" is probably dbus... check if dbus is installed and running (should be, it's pretty essential)
[06:41] <amphi> accrc: linuxprinting.org perhaps
[06:41] <reggaemanu> fender__, for sure, but you have to make a choice, 1.4 works fine with xgl/compiz, and 1.5 is buggy, so...
[06:41] <fender__> reggaemanu, ah, i mean sun's j2se 1.4.x
[06:42] <fender__> i've heard that swing in 5.x has some problem with compiz as you mentioned
[06:42] <budluva> stfn, well ive been getting a wierd error about dbus needing to be started when i log in, this is just after installing the new -23 kernel, could be causing this, apparently the -23 restricted modules havent showed up in the repos
[06:42] <budluva> but since i have no choice on what kernel to boot into i think im screwed
[06:42] <reggaemanu> Cyphir, i use xgl on dapper since david's first "public release" (so in february) and i've never experienced any bug like that
[06:42] <toad013> yeah swing in compiz shows nothing
[06:43] <reggaemanu> so it's why i said you're pretty unlucky
[06:43] <Cyphir> reggaemanu: i guess its a problem with the toggle button i made
[06:43] <toad013> i spent 3 hours debugging my java code tihnking it was my code but it was just compiz
[06:43] <Orborde> Does the checkinstall script work if I do something like tar xf somefile.tar.gz? I'm trying to install a proprietary thing that comes as a tarball to be extracted at /.
[06:43] <Cyphir> taod01: wow lol
[06:43] <fender__> btw, i have both compiz and sun java 5 installed and i don't have such a problem it seems - i can run jbuilder ok
[06:43] <reggaemanu> toad013,  yeah, that ios, there is a prblem with java swing, but with the blackbox j2re version there is no problem
[06:43] <accrc> I will try it .        Thank you
[06:43] <reggaemanu> that is*
[06:44] <fender__> i guess you guy's are talking about 'Blackdown' java :)
[06:44] <reggaemanu> fender__, all java application that don't use "swing" are ok
[06:44] <pargari> hi
[06:44] <fender__> jbuilder is swing
[06:44] <Cyphir> anyone here need help with setting up frostwire?
[06:44] <fender__> though i use swt most of times
[06:44] <Cyphir> like it doesnt open
[06:44] <reggaemanu> hum
[06:44] <toad013> frostwire is swing too
[06:44] <Cyphir> ahhh
[06:45] <stfn> budluva: ah, i just apt-get'd (apt-got?) -23 too but haven't rebooted yet.  on my system there are 2 dbus-daemon and 1 debus-launch processes
[06:45] <reggaemanu> fender__, swing app should have some problem in xgl/compir (white window)
[06:45] <reggaemanu> compiz*
[06:45] <Cyphir> is xcompmgr any good?
[06:45] <fender__> maybe it's just some version that has or has not such problem then
[06:45] <toad013> so far you can either use blackdown's java... or try to get an xnest window up and load the app there...
[06:45] <budluva> stfn, well ubuntu+1 says boot -22 until the -23 restricted modules is in the repos, so i wouldnt suggest rebooting :P
[06:45] <reggaemanu> anyway, i don't use any java app so i don't really know but as it was reported a lot's of time...
[06:46] <reggaemanu> (sorry for my english)
[06:46] <fender__> yeah i heard that too
[06:46] <fender__> hehe i have hard time writting in english myself :)
[06:46] <toad013> but my xnest won't load any window manager cause it says its already running....
[06:46] <reggaemanu> toad013, xnest is pretty useless
[06:47] <Cyphir> oops back wrong button =P
[06:47] <toad013> reggaemanu, so far... i agree with you
[06:47] <reggaemanu> i use xgl as my principal x server for 3 month now and no problem here ^^
[06:47] <NickGarvey> xgl is pretty
[06:47] <reggaemanu> never return on xorg
[06:47] <reggaemanu> returned*
[06:47] <reggaemanu> hum, my english sucks
[06:48] <jerware_> fellaz
[06:49] <fender__> http://www.gnome.or.kr/albums/screenshots/xgl.png - just a screeny of mine, had to show if off :)
[06:49] <jerware> is there a way to find how what hard drives are connected in my PC?
[06:49] <jerware> i would like to mount a second drive
[06:49] <NickGarvey> jerware: fdisk -l
[06:50] <fender__> would love to have some compiz/xgl settings integrated to gnome desktop
[06:50] <reggaemanu> fender__, heyhey, macslow cairo's clock :D
[06:50] <reggaemanu> macslow rock !
[06:50] <fender__> hehe i use it in 512x512 size now :)
[06:51] <Cyphir> Im testing out a composite manager called xcompmgr
[06:51] <reggaemanu> i can't wait to his "lowfat" project will be finished
[06:51] <jerware_> hi
[06:51] <fender__> hi jerware_
[06:51] <reggaemanu> this will be definitely a killer app
[06:52] <jerware> hi
[06:52] <NickGarvey> jerware_: fdisk -l
[06:52] <Cyphir> terminal being semi-transparent rocks =P
[06:52] <NickGarvey> ahh pick one
[06:52] <Centaur5> Does ubuntu have a replacement for /etc/modprobe.conf and /etc/modules.d/?
[06:52] <jerware> NickGarvey:  will fdisk work even if the slave device is not yet mounted?
[06:53] <NickGarvey> jerware: yup, thats why said that and not mount ;)
[06:53] <reggaemanu> Cyphir, xcompmgr is totally outdated (although  it works)
[06:53] <jerware> oh ok
[06:53] <Cyphir> reggaemanu: yea but it looks light
[06:53] <toad013> fender_, have you used blackdown's java sdk?
[06:54] <fender__> yes, about year or two ago
[06:54] <reggaemanu> Centaur5, /etc/modprobe.d/....
[06:54] <fender__> had some stability problems then
[06:54] <Centaur5> reggaemanu: Okay, I was going to try that but I wanted to be sure.  Thanks
[06:54] <toad013> there shouldn't be a big difference if i swich from sun's 1.5 j2sdk right?
[06:54] <fender__> don't know how much has changed since
[06:55] <reggaemanu> Centaur5, /etc/modprobe.d/options and /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist are probably what you are looking for
[06:55] <fender__> they both share most of codebase anyway
[06:55] <Centaur5> reggaemanu: To make a regulatory demon whenever a module loads?
[06:55] <reggaemanu> toad013, sdk is for developpement, s o it is pretty useless except if you're developping a java app
[06:55] <fender__> but afaik, blackdown doesn't have java 5.x yet
[06:56] <reggaemanu> toad013, j2re is the java runtime lib
[06:56] <Centaur5> reggaemanu: To make a regulatory demon start that is
[06:56] <reggaemanu> then, blackdown is an open source version of java, it is not uptodate
[06:57] <toad013> yeah... i'm programming in java for servlets and such
[06:57] <helloall> hello all
[06:57] <NickGarvey> hello.. helloall..
[06:57] <helloall> I'm getting sick of gentoo's portage dep inconsistancies, and I'm thinking of moving over to ubuntu
[06:57] <eng> hello all
[06:58] <reggaemanu> Centaur5, mmh, sorry i don't understand exactly what you mean by deamon start while speaking about modprobe, modprobe is for loading modules, not daemons...
[06:58] <kamo> i just started useing ubuntu yesterday ^_^
[06:58] <helloall> I was a debian user for a few years before that. But one of the reasons I moved to gentoo in the first place was because debians lack of keeping uptodate with software.
[06:58] <fender__> er... i guess blackdown is just a linux port of sun's jdk, it's not opensource like classpath/gcj
[06:58] <helloall> How does ubuntu rate with its packages releases.
[06:58] <toad013> i'll just do a config java whenever i need it
[06:58] <Madpilot> helloall, Ubuntu updates with every release, every six months.
[06:58] <kamo> theres a new release about to drop too
[06:59] <NickGarvey> helloall: quite a jump, gentoo to ubuntu ;)
[06:59] <Centaur5> reggaemanu: Right, the instructions for this wireless driver says that /etc/modules.conf has to have 2 lines to launch a regulatory demon whenever the ipw3945 module is loaded.
[06:59] <reggaemanu> helloall, ubuntu release packages when it is needed, nobody can tell you the rate, there is no constant "rate"
[06:59] <kamo> im a linux n00b i have my cousin put in all the codes while i watch ^_^
[07:00] <toad013> at least you watch
[07:00] <NickGarvey> :)
[07:00] <toad013> i have my friends call me then they just sit back and watch g4
[07:00] <spikeb> kamo: if you watch and ask questions, that's a pretty good way to learn
[07:00] <reggaemanu> Centaur5, ok, so, i think /etc/modules.conf is replaced by /etc/modules (or maybe /etc/modprobe.d/options i don't really know)
[07:00] <helloall> reggaemanu: fair enough, but how is the community when it comes to packages, is their a diverse amount? or would it compare to say debian woody?
[07:00] <kamo> haha @ toad013
[07:01] <reggaemanu> helloall, hum, community is far much active than debian one's
[07:01] <Centaur5> reggaemanu: I'll try the options file and if that doesn't work I'll just try the modules file.  I don't think that will hurt anything.
[07:01] <stfn> helloall: ubuntu basically snapshots debian unstable once every 6 months
[07:01] <Cyphir> helloall: omg te community at ubuntu is absolutly huge and active
[07:01] <Madpilot> helloall, there's about 18.000 packages in Ubuntu's repos
[07:01] <helloall> ok thanks
[07:01] <toad013> lol
[07:01] <helloall> sounds good
[07:02] <zcat[1] > ubuntu and debian are fairly close communities.. about the same number of packages I think.. ubuntu aims to release a new version every 6 months, I think debian aims for a stable version every 6 years... :)
[07:02] <reggaemanu> debiajn is a good distro, but the community is pretty inactive, and really "mind limited" (they don't like other distro users, like ubuntu's ones for example..)
[07:02] <varsendagger> !JRE
[07:02] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, varsendagger
[07:02] <kamo> are any of you useing XChat?
[07:03] <fender__> me
[07:03] <Cyphir> anyone have andy GTK2x themes?
[07:03] <reggaemanu> helloall, no this should doesn't hurt anything if it doesn't work it will just doens't work
[07:03] <Cyphir> i am
[07:03] <toad013> yes
[07:03] <rightcoast> kamo, yep
[07:03] <reggaemanu> debian*
[07:03] <kamo> where is the script window like say i want to put in a script for an rpg chat
[07:03] <varsendagger> hey how do i get jre   working with firefox, i got it downloaded and sudo sh .jre and it installed but it still isn't working with firefox
[07:03] <helloall> well, i think I'll give it a whirl. thanks for the advice all
[07:03] <zcat[1] > !java
[07:03] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[07:04] <Cyphir> helloall: the live cd can't really do it justice
[07:04] <fender__> variant, you can just apt-get install the latest version of sun's java now
[07:04] <reggaemanu> helloall, just take a look to ubuntu's forums (at least english and/or french forums) and you will be fixed :p
[07:04] <rightcoast> fender__, really?!
[07:04] <reggaemanu> ubuntu community is amazing
[07:04] <kamo> automatix is pretty good
[07:04] <rob138> can anyone help me figure out why halflife2 won't start after loading screen in wine, it is driving me crazy, i've looked over tons of websites and forums and have found no answer
[07:04] <fender__> rightcoast, yeah, it has hit the repository just a few days ago
[07:04] <Cyphir> omg u seen the howtos ;)
[07:05] <zcat[1] > !automatix
[07:05] <ubotu> automatix is, like, totally, 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.
[07:05] <cr3> which command tells me which version of ubuntu I'm running?
[07:05] <helloall> uname -a ?
[07:05] <rightcoast> im new to ubuntu, but someone pointed out easyubuntu, i liked that
[07:05] <tritium> cr3: lsb_release -a
[07:05] <rightcoast> python for gtk and qt;)
[07:05] <reggaemanu> haha, automatix sucks
[07:05] <cr3> tritium: nope, that only returns that I'm running some Linux
[07:05] <Cyphir> it replaces your sources list...
[07:05] <Orborde> Compiling things from source is an amazing amount of fun. For anyone who cares, by the way, "checkinstall tar xf foo.tar.bz2" works just fine.
[07:06] <helloall> reggaemanu: ok will do cheers
[07:06] <reggaemanu> the author doesn't respect the GPL licence of easyubuntu (it is based on the easybuntu code)
[07:06] <helloall> later all
[07:06] <kamo> lol im a n00b i let my cousin put it on here so i could actully watch movies without the error
[07:06] <papo> Hello
[07:06] <papo> will anybody help me with an issue here
[07:06] <papo> ?
[07:06] <Cyphir> sure
[07:06] <tritium> cr3: no, that's the appropriate command
[07:06] <toad013> yes!! swing app's alive again!
[07:06] <Cyphir> i will if i can
[07:06] <papo> about VLC in ubuntu
[07:06] <reggaemanu> toad013, with blackdown java?
[07:06] <nickrud> reggaemanu, you have one thing wrong, automatix came before easyubunt
[07:06] <tritium> cr3: you can also "cat /etc/issue"
[07:07] <rightcoast> reggaemanu, I got bored and went with neither http://pastebin.com/725341
[07:07] <cr3> tritium: sorry, I misread, my comment was for helloall
[07:07] <nickrud> u
[07:07] <fender__> hehe good for you... i hate swing though :)
[07:07] <toad013> yeah... i decided that if i need to program i'll just update-alternatives --config java and change it to sun j2sdk
[07:07] <reggaemanu> nickrud, hum sorry but no, that is defintely wrong ;)
[07:07] <rightcoast> used the dapper wiki page ands a depracted script
[07:07] <papo> will anybody please help me with an issue here??
[07:07] <rightcoast> ill fix the java part since apt can handle it now ehh?
[07:07] <rightcoast> :D
[07:07] <Cyphir> papo: sure say iy
[07:07] <rob138> !pastebin
[07:07] <ubotu> somebody said pastebin was 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
[07:08] <reggaemanu> NickGarvey, easyubuntu is a french app and i'm french i'm reading the french ubuntu forum everyday and i 'm really sure that is totally wrong :)
[07:08] <nickrud> reggaemanu, I've fought automatix for a long time. it came first
[07:08] <reggaemanu> hmm sorry it was for nickrud
[07:08] <reggaemanu> easyubuntu exist for around 1 year now...
[07:08] <reggaemanu> and there was a fight because of the non-respect of the licence for automatix
[07:09] <reggaemanu> so easyubuntu is older than automatix
[07:09] <nickrud> reggaemanu, join #easyubuntu and ask that question
[07:09] <reggaemanu> but automatix is more "complete" it's not for newbies
[07:09] <tritium> reggaemanu: it's not a french app
[07:09] <rightcoast> nickrud, i understand linux fairly well debian for a couple years, what in particular sucks about automatix, i havent seen it yrt
[07:09] <fender__> reggaemanu, are you french? cool :) i've learned french for 3 years when i was in school, but i can't even count numbers in it now hehe
[07:09] <reggaemanu> nickrud, no need to ask :) i already know the answer
[07:09] <Cyphir> rightcaost: it deletes/adds to your sources list without telling u
[07:09] <papo> Cyphir dude you there?
[07:09] <reggaemanu> fender__, yeah, i'm french
[07:10] <Cyphir> papo: yea
[07:10] <mikebot> !java
[07:10] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[07:10] <rightcoast> ahh yeah, my script asks at least
[07:10] <nickrud> rightcoast, it assumes it's going onto a pristine install. easyubuntu tries to be more forgiving, so I'm told
[07:10] <papo> man do you know if it takes further than the instalation in Ubuntu of the VLC application  to watch DVDs
[07:10] <Cyphir> papo: use Totem Movie player
[07:10] <reggaemanu> fender__, un, deux, trois, quatre, cinqu, six, sept, huit, neuf, dix, ... xD
[07:11] <tritium> !dvd
[07:11] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[07:11] <reggaemanu> cinq*
[07:11] <fender__> hehe :)
[07:11] <papo> man it does not work either...it says cannot read no DVD
[07:11] <rightcoast> nickrud, the script i pasted assumes a clean install, but it's up front about that frankly its for me anyway
[07:11] <rightcoast> if anyone wants it though its all good
[07:11] <papo> thanks ubotu
[07:11] <Cyphir> papo: type sudo apt-get libdvdcss2
[07:11] <kamo> libdvdcss2? what is that
[07:11] <Cyphir> papoL tin terminal
[07:12] <papo> ok i am going to do that Cyphir
[07:12] <reggaemanu> nickrud, do you understand the french language?
[07:12] <heatxsink> hello all, I'm getting an error when trying to upgrade samba, and apt-get install -f isn't working
[07:12] <reggaemanu> nickrud, if it is, read that and you will know : http://placelibre.ath.cx/keyes/index.php/2005/12/05/78-automatix-viole-la-gpl
[07:12] <nickrud> rightcoast, I have seen plenty of people have perfect automatix experiences; but the complaints that I've tracked down had to do with the user doing things to their install that automatix didn't deal with
[07:12] <Cyphir> nickrud: like frostwire ?
[07:13] <reggaemanu> automatix is a fork from easyubuntu
[07:13] <rightcoast> yeah, it sounds as if its something like what i did, i found a depracted script on the mr bass site and made it dapper ready
[07:13] <nickrud> Cyphir, no, I tend to deal only with java & X & non-free media on a regular basis
[07:13] <reggaemanu> that don't respect the GPL licence (maybe now it respect i don't know but in the beginning it wasn't)
[07:14] <Cyphir> nickrud: ah i see
[07:14] <reggaemanu> (sorry for my english -_-' )
[07:14] <tritium> reggaemanu: it's not a fork, either
[07:14] <Cyphir> reggaemanu: np ur english is good
[07:14] <reggaemanu> i'm not sure my sentence is really english
[07:14] <papo> it doesnt work,
[07:14] <nickrud> reggaemanu, no no french
[07:15] <tritium> Cyphir: and yours is not (e.g. "ur") ;)
[07:15] <reggaemanu> tritium, maybe not now, i don't really know, but in the beginning it was ;)
[07:15] <tritium> reggaemanu: nope, never was
[07:15] <reggaemanu> it surely was ^^
[07:15] <rightcoast> hmm im reading about automatix now
[07:15] <Cyphir> tritium: i type fast =P
[07:15] <T`2> hey, what do you guys use to encrypt partitions on ubuntu?
[07:15] <rightcoast> As of 23 January, 2006, '--force-yes' was used.
[07:15] <tritium> reggaemanu: impossible, as it came first
[07:15] <rightcoast> http://nalioth.hostdestroyer.com/comparison.html
[07:15] <T`2> i use dmcrypt on fedora.. is this available? can't find apt-get package for it
[07:15] <rightcoast> that is not good
[07:15] <eggzeck> !automatix
[07:15] <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.
[07:15] <reggaemanu> tritium, no it wasn't come first ^^
[07:16] <tritium> reggaemanu: you are mistaken, sir
[07:16] <fender__> !easyubuntu
[07:16] <ubotu> easyubuntu is, like, totally, an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/.
[07:16] <Cyphir> sudo apt-get rocks =P
[07:16] <rightcoast> i spoke to soon
[07:16] <rightcoast> As of 1 Feb, 2006, --force-yes is gone, but has "echo -e "y\nY\n""
[07:17] <rightcoast> still that will echo a yes on the user forcefully
[07:17] <rightcoast> hmm
[07:17] <rightcoast> easyubuntu seems better from all angles IMHO
[07:17] <papo> man is there any other secret to make the VLC work??
[07:18] <NickGarvey> friends don't let friends use automatix
[07:18] <rightcoast> papo whats up with it?
[07:18] <hey560> fully agreed NickGarvey
[07:18] <reggaemanu> tritium, fort release of eaysubuntu was 08/21/05 and first automatix release was 09/17/05 (i've just checked) so, sorry but YOU are wrong :)
[07:18] <toad013> lol
[07:18] <hey560> automatix is bordering on being a worm
[07:18] <reggaemanu> s/forst/first
[07:18] <eggzeck> stop stealing that and replacing "windows" to automatix :p
[07:18] <papo> rightcoast, I dunno I installed it from synaptic
[07:18] <eggzeck> leave windows there please
[07:18] <papo> and stuff
[07:18] <nalioth> !offtopic
[07:18] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[07:18] <rightcoast> well yeah, but what is wrong?
[07:18] <papo> but when I insert a dvd it does not read it
[07:19] <ubuntu> help FreeBSD ??
[07:19] <papo> how the heck do i do to make VLC recgonize dthe DVD
[07:19] <tritium> reggaemanu: again, you are mistaken, but it is offtopic, and we won't debate it further
[07:19] <rightcoast> papo apt-cache show libdvdcss2
[07:19] <nickrud> reggaemanu, look again, easyubuntu was written in response to automatix. But, this kind of discussion doesn't belong on a simple suppot channel
[07:19] <rightcoast> did you install that?
[07:20] <mikebot> does anyone know whyt he video in totem doesn't work for me anymore? (the audio still does)
[07:20] <Cyphir> Anyone has a good GTK 2x theme that looks nice?
[07:20] <fender__> maybe you could try art-manager
[07:20] <nalioth> reggaemanu: tritium: nickrud: rightcoast: eggzeck: easyubuntu vs automatix can be discussed to your hearts content in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:21] <reggaemanu> nickrud, from the automatix threads on the forum :
[07:21] <reggaemanu> Credits:
[07:21] <reggaemanu> 1) keyes (for showing the way)
[07:21] <papo> mm no i dont think so
[07:21] <fender__> or visit www.gnome-look.org / art.gnome.org to check yourself
[07:21] <reggaemanu> keyes is the french developper of easyubuntu...
[07:21] <rightcoast> papo, you need that in Linux to decrypt dvd's
[07:21] <mikebot> what's the difference between totem-xine and totem-gstreamer?
[07:21] <rightcoast> its in apt
[07:21] <fender__> they use different backend to play video libxine/gstreamer respectively
[07:21] <rightcoast> so sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[07:21] <eggzeck> nalioth: read up, I wasn't discussing that with anyone ;P
[07:22] <mikebot> rightcoast, does it matter which i have?
[07:22] <frank_> mikebot: I have had much more success with xine
[07:22] <reggaemanu> nickrud, so, sorry but stop to say anything :)
[07:22] <rightcoast> mikebot in a word it shouldnt AFAIK, but i use xine
[07:22] <mikebot> frank_, my xine right now doesn't play video==i just get a blue background. this just recently started happening
[07:22] <toad013> i prefer xine as well but since compiz i've been having problems so i switched to mplayer
[07:22] <reggaemanu> easyubuntu is one month older than automatix
[07:22] <Orborde> I'm thinking of filing a bug report or something about this, but I'm checking here first: Would it be considered a bug if a ./configure script fails to notice that, say, the libfoo headers are present, but not the library files themselves? (The problem was with libXaw and OGRE (a 3D game engine))
[07:23] <frank_> mikebot: restart X
[07:23] <fender__> you can use non-free codecs with gstreamer too btw, you just need to install additional packages and codecs
[07:23] <mikebot> i hate mplayer cause i always get errors and you can't zoom
[07:23] <mikebot> frank_, how do i do that?
[07:23] <reggaemanu> anyway, we don't care it was just a notice
[07:23] <nickrud> reggaemanu, please on #ubuntu-offtopic I'm there
[07:23] <Cyphir> which u guys think is better amaroK or XMMS
[07:23] <eggzeck> Orborde: no, because the anyone could have created the configuration script.
[07:24] <babo> Has anyone installed skype on ubuntu64 ... ?
[07:24] <fender__> i prefer listen to both :)
[07:24] <mikebot> how do i restart x?
[07:24] <frank_> mikebot: ctrl-alt-backspace is the 'abrupt' way to do it. make sure you close your programs because they will be shut down
[07:24] <tritium> mikebot: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[07:24] <fender__> it's like asking which is better between win98 and OSX :)
[07:24] <mikebot> oh okay, thanks
[07:24] <eggzeck> Orborde: for example, if I ./configure an ircd, it's not Ubuntus fault if it gives me the error you got :)
[07:24] <reggaemanu> nalioth, we don't need to kick we (especially without notification before) i've stop this conversation, he is wrong and i'm sure of that from the beginning so there is no to continue the troll ^^
[07:24] <nalioth> reggaemanu: you WERE notified
[07:24] <rightcoast> mikebot you could try this if you want mplayer i wrote it for myself
[07:25] <rightcoast> http://pastebin.com/726019
[07:25] <rightcoast> and you could use mplayer -zoom file.avi at the cli
[07:25] <reggaemanu> nalioth, oh, then i'm sorry, i didn't notice
[07:25] <papo> rightcoast i wrote apt-cache show libdvdccs2
[07:25] <rightcoast> there is a fix, i forget it though
[07:25] <mikebot> ah, thanks rightcoast
[07:25] <papo> but it didnt regonize it yet
[07:26] <mikebot> rightcoast, could you p[aste me that in a few minutes?
[07:26] <mikebot> brb
[07:26] <reggaemanu> anyway, i'm going to sleep, it is 07h26 am here, not the moment to trool about a useless subject like that
[07:26] <rightcoast> papo i bet you need a repository
[07:26] <Cyphir> cya
[07:26] <rightcoast> ubuntu gurus, what repo does he need?
[07:26] <papo> mmm
[07:26] <NickGarvey> !repos
[07:26] <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
[07:26] <papo> yeah let me check
[07:26] <toad013> for whaT?
[07:26] <rightcoast> papo see above
[07:27] <frank_> mikebot: did it work?
[07:27] <toad013> vlc and dvd?
[07:27] <mikebot> hey560, so ctrl+alt+backspace didn't fix the video in totem
[07:27] <mikebot> no
[07:27] <mikebot> *hey
[07:27] <papo> yeah toad
[07:27] <Orborde> eggzeck: I wasn't going to file an Ubuntu bug. I'm wondering whether I should email the developers of the thing I was compiling.
[07:27] <papo> i did have the universal
[07:27] <mikebot> i get perfect audio, just blue video
[07:28] <mikebot> i also tried reinstalling totem-xine
[07:28] <fender__> mikebot, do you have non-free codecs installed?
[07:28] <frank_> mikebot: and it recently started? you can try changing the output video setting in the xine configuration
[07:28] <eggzeck> Orborde: oh, I thought you meant an Ubuntu bug, and yes you should.
[07:28] <papo> I am like a 2 year old kid in tokio!
[07:28] <eggzeck> Orborde: because then that would mean it's their flaw :)
[07:28] <papo> haha
[07:28] <rightcoast> papo, multiverse too?
[07:28] <mikebot> fender__, i'm unsure
[07:29] <mikebot> frank_, i don't know how to do that
[07:29] <papo> let me check right coast
[07:29] <babo> When I try to dchroot I get ... su: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info. ... I've checked for /etc/passwd and its there ... ?
[07:29] <fender__> if it's not an video output prob, then you could try installing all the available codecs from mplayer homepage
[07:29] <papo> i added the multiuniverse
[07:29] <fender__> install it under /usr/lib/win32 and it will be shared between xine/mplayer/gstreamer
[07:30] <mikebot> fender__, i'm afraid i don't follow
[07:30] <fender__> er... there's non-free codecs from mplayer home page
[07:30] <frank_> mikebot: I never really used totem but my strange video blue screens always come back to normal when I restart X
[07:30] <fender__> you can download it and unpack (without directory prefix) it to /usr/lib/win32
[07:30] <mikebot> frank_, ah, ok, thanks
[07:30] <fender__> xine will automatically pick up those codecs then
[07:30] <mikebot> fender__, what about totem though?
[07:31] <fender__> it will work if you use totem-xine
[07:31] <rightcoast> papo "multiverse"
[07:31] <fender__> if you're using gstreamer backend, you need a additional package to use those codecs
[07:31] <mikebot> i don't really know what that means
[07:31] <mikebot> i don't know much about this
[07:31] <fender__> ok :)
[07:32] <fender__> first, make sure it is not video output related problem
[07:32] <rightcoast> if ylou added that, you should be able to sudo apt-get install that libdvdcss2
[07:32] <mikebot> fender__, how do i do that?
[07:32] <mikebot> actually, fender__ , brb
[07:32] <fender__> you can change video output from system > multimedia properties or so
[07:33] <fender__> (urg, i'm using korean locale so i'm not sure how it reads in english desktop :))
[07:33] <Awesome-o2000> will someone please tell me how to get text output out of glxgears
[07:33] <frank_> !glxgears
[07:33] <ubotu> To display the FPS type "glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark"
[07:33] <frank_> ;)
[07:36] <zcat[1] > what's a normal fps ?
[07:36] <papo> multiverse...and then apt-get ....
[07:36] <toad013> apt-get install libdvdcss2
[07:36] <Awesome-o2000> wow, thats nice. Too bad im ditching my ati card - its too much of a pain in the tucchus to get it running in linux, even if I did manage to randomly get it going with ubuntu, theres no comparison to nvidia
[07:37] <rightcoast> papo, no you said you added the multiuniverse, be sure it read multiverse
[07:37] <rightcoast> then apt-get ...
[07:37] <frank_> zcat[1] : Awesome-o2000  glxinfo | grep is a better way to figure out if 3d acceleration is working
[07:37] <frank_> zcat[1] : Awesome-o2000  glxinfo | grep direct     is a better way to figure out if 3d acceleration is working
[07:37] <toad013> i'm running an ati x600 pci-e and compiz/xgl on twin-view and acceleration with no problem
[07:37] <Awesome-o2000> frank_, I just like to watch the pretty wheels spin
[07:37] <zcat[1] > direct rendering: no
[07:38] <zcat[1] > hmm..
[07:38] <thesilentkiller> how do i list all users ?
[07:38] <Awesome-o2000> no mplayer for ubuntu???
[07:39] <tritium> !mplayer
[07:39] <ubotu> I heard mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[07:39] <frank_> !info mplayer
[07:39] <thesilentkiller> anyone...? how do i list all users in my ubuntu box...from the shell
[07:39] <Awesome-o2000> is ubuntu 6.06 stable??
[07:40] <papo>  damn
[07:40] <papo> i must be retarded dudes
[07:40] <frank_> Awesome-o2000: mplayer is in multiverse
[07:40] <toad013> what's going on papo
[07:40] <papo> it says
[07:40] <tritium> Awesome-o2000: on June 1 it will be released
[07:40] <xanavim> Awesome-o2000: no, it's beta
[07:40] <papo> that libdvdcss2 is not available
[07:41] <frank_> papo: libdvdcss2 is not in the ubuntu repos
[07:41] <frank_> !dvd
[07:41] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[07:41] <papo> i typed it in the terminal as you told me
[07:41] <xanavim> frank_: yes it is
[07:41] <spikeb> i could have swore i got it without using seveas
[07:42] <papo> apt-get libdvdcss2
[07:42] <toad013> apt-get install
[07:42] <rightcoast> papo, thisis my first couple days with ubuntu, linux user, new to ubuntu
[07:42] <rightcoast> apologies :D
[07:42] <papo> hahah yeah I am a rookie man
[07:42] <frank_> xanavim: libdvdread3 only is in the ubuntu repos.
[07:42] <toad013> apt-get install libdvdcss3
[07:43] <toad013> 3 or 2?
[07:43] <frank_> !restricted
[07:43] <ubotu> well, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[07:43] <rightcoast> i think i used the france repo
[07:43] <toad013> for vlc i think u need libdvdcss2
[07:43] <zcat[1] > btw; just for reference, I recently wanted to get DVD playing to work in Windows .. absoultely NO idea where to start or what to install, google searches turned up nothing but commercial crapware.. in the end all it took was installing klite codec pack but it took me a while to figure that out!
[07:43] <frank_> papo: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats#head-cd84b8e23927ccdb4bb55ffd3074687abec0cf3b
[07:44] <papo> thanks Frank
[07:44] <UNH2LY> hey everyone
[07:44] <papo> I guess i will have to be visiting this chat a little bit more
[07:44] <UNH2LY> need some help
[07:45] <frank_> papo: no problem
[07:45] <UNH2LY> ...anyone that knows about installing video drivers and such
[07:45] <mikebot> hi frank_
[07:45] <mikebot> sorry
[07:45] <tritium> UNH2LY: which driver?
[07:45] <papo> thats what we I am lloking for
[07:45] <mikebot> can we start over
[07:46] <UNH2LY> tritium, i have an averatec 3750 and its got some low budget onboard video card on it
[07:46] <UNH2LY> i installed qemu and got windows rolling
[07:46] <UNH2LY> and that identified it as a cirrus logic card
[07:46] <frank_> mikebot: for xine? I'm not sure what to do if you always get a blue screen for videos
[07:46] <neal_> Does anyone know how to get skybox to work with skype?
[07:46] <UNH2LY> and i tried installing xserver-xorg....-cirrus
[07:46] <UNH2LY> but i my video still runs horribly
[07:46] <mikebot> frank_, ah, ok
[07:46] <UNH2LY> like, i cant get over 10 fps on most screensavers
[07:47] <UNH2LY> and im running 1024x768
[07:47] <papo> well dudes!! thanks for all your help in this amateur incident!!!
[07:47] <toad013> mikebot, try not using xv
[07:47] <mikebot> fender__, could you help me out?
[07:47] <papo> c ya around fellas!!!!
[07:47] <mikebot> toad013, what is xv?
[07:47] <toad013> it worked me at least
[07:47] <fender__> mikebot, i will try, if it really is the codec related prob
[07:47] <neal_> Does anyone know how to get a skybox to work with skype?
[07:48] <UNH2LY> it seems that ive already installed the package, but it seems that its not set/activated
[07:48] <mikebot> thanks
[07:48] <toad013> gstreamer-properties
[07:48] <toad013> and then on the video tab for output try XWindows (No Xv)
[07:48] <Awesome-o2000> !win32codec
[07:48] <ubotu> Awesome-o2000: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:48] <Awesome-o2000> hmm
[07:48] <UNH2LY> tritium, any ideas?
[07:48] <Awesome-o2000> is there a win32codecs package for ubuntu?
[07:48] <fender__> mikebot, first, try changing video output plugin as toad013 has said and see what happens
[07:49] <tritium> UNH2LY: so you can't get into X at all?
[07:49] <frank_> !tell Awesome-o2000 about w32codecs
[07:49] <mikebot> ok, i changed it to no xv for default sink, still blue
[07:49] <watson540> Awesome-o2000: yes there is
[07:49] <UNH2LY> oh no, x runs, but its graphically slow
[07:49] <UNH2LY> not nearly as quick as it should be
[07:49] <UNH2LY> like screensavers and whanot
[07:50] <toad013> is it just xine?
[07:50] <fender__> mikebot, ok then you could try install codecs, first download codecs from here  -  http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html
[07:50] <xanavim> UNH2LY: it probably isn't using your graphics card then
[07:50] <fender__> mikebot, you can try essential codecs first
[07:50] <UNH2LY> how do i get it to do that
[07:51] <mikebot> ok
[07:51] <UNH2LY> lol im new to linux as of like december
[07:51] <frank_> fender__ mikebot: that is not the easiest way to get codecs and codecs are probably not what is causing the blue screens
[07:51] <UNH2LY> but i plan on making the total switch at some point here
[07:51] <UNH2LY> ive found plenty of guides for installing nvidia/ati cards, but nothing for little company stuff like mine
[07:52] <fender__> frank_, yeah, i wasn't sure if it's codec related problem, so if you could guess the cause other than that, i guess you could guide him with it first :)
[07:52] <mikebot> if it helps, the video in mplayer works
[07:52] <dli_> UNH2LY, for a company, buying intel video sounds better, cheaper, no more driver torture
[07:52] <fender__> frank_, btw, does w32codecs package still available now? i guess marlliat has been dead for sometime now
[07:53] <toad013> mike, oh you know what... there was a problem like this on the boards... but i think it was a resolution problem
[07:53] <mikebot> toad013, oh..well i haven't changed my resolution, and totem worked fine until a couple of days ago
[07:53] <fender__> if mplayer can play video alright, i guess it's not codec problem - they both share the binary codecs
[07:53] <UNH2LY> dli_, its a lappy, and i dont exactly have the money to buy a new one
[07:54] <mikebot> fender__, ah ok
[07:54] <frank_> mikebot: I'd like to try and help you but its too late for tonight.   check what video output driver mplayer is using and use the same in xine
[07:54] <frank_> fender__: wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.4_i386.deb
[07:54] <mikebot> frank_, ok, well thanks a lot
[07:54] <fender__> frank_, ah thanks :) thought it was dead
[07:54] <xanavim> does anyone know a SID to MP3 or OGG converter?  or a way to record the audio stream?
[07:55] <mikebot> how can i check the video driver mplayer is using?
[07:55] <UNH2LY> ...a similar problem
[07:55] <varsendagger> hey how can i changet the color of text in inkscape
[07:55] <frank_> mikebot: in the mplayer settings
[07:55] <UNH2LY> how can i check the video driver X is using
[07:55] <toad013> mike, this is off the xine website, adding Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps"  in the device section of ur xorg.conf
[07:55] <xanavim> UNH2LY: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:55] <mikebot> ah, x11
[07:56] <frank_> UNH2LY: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf   in the Driver section
[07:56] <UNH2LY> k, lemme lookie, should i paste?
[07:56] <xanavim> UNH2LY: use the pastebin
[07:56] <mikebot> x11     X11 (XImage/Shm)
[07:56] <mikebot> oh, video codec family: None
[07:57] <toad013> that's the other option in gstreamer-properties
[07:57] <xanavim> UNH2LY: there's also the option of using a lighter-weight window manager
[07:57] <UNH2LY> i really like gnome, and have it quite decked out atm
[07:58] <UNH2LY> its great for my lappy
[07:59] <mikebot> so i guess mplayer isn't using any codec for video?
[07:59] <UNH2LY> xanavim, this should have everything to do with video in it...
[07:59] <UNH2LY> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14245
[07:59] <i3dmaster> how to prevent some apps to be installed when installing a meta package such as xubuntu-desktop?
[08:00] <nickrud> i3dmaster, you can't stop things being installed that are depended upon by xubuntu-desktop
[08:00] <T`2> isn't there a way to improve the start-up screen resolution on ubuntu?
[08:00] <toad013> i don't think its a codec problem because you said mplayer was working fine
[08:00] <T`2> i have ati drivers installed, but it doesn't seem to use them at that stage
[08:01] <xanavim> T`2: yes, it's a grub setting
[08:01] <bon0bo> what do you mean by improve?
[08:01] <i3dmaster> T`2, you can specify vga=xxx into your kernel option
[08:01] <nickrud> T`2, you mean that ugly brown scrolling stuff at startup?
[08:02] <xanavim> UNH2LY: it doesn't look like there is a driver for your card built-in to Ubuntu, but you could try getting one from the vendor and you could also try 16-bit color
[08:02] <Fac51> i'm having a problem with the flash plugin, i'm not able to see text at all on flash objects.... familiar?
[08:02] <xanavim> and/or 15-bit color
[08:02] <toad013> mike, check the xine FAQ they have something about blue screens
[08:02] <mikebot> !xine
[08:02] <ubotu> mikebot: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:02] <mikebot> toad013, thanks
[08:03] <T`2> nickrud, haha yea
[08:03] <xanavim> UNH2LY: your X is using vesa, which is a generic video card driver
[08:03] <nickrud> Fac51, I haven't had that problem, but there are some fixes documented on https//wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats , look for flash
[08:03] <UNH2LY> xanavim, how do i tell what video driver is in here... windows in qemu said cirrus logic
[08:03] <Fac51> nickrud: thanks
[08:03] <T`2> i3dmaster, well, but the ati drivers are kernel modules, will it be able to load it early and use them?
[08:04] <mikebot> toad013, where is that faq?
[08:04] <xanavim> UNH2LY: I don't remember
[08:04] <i3dmaster> T`2, during bootup, kernel doesn't use ati driver to use framebuffer
[08:04] <noiesmo> anyone here got a linux box running on DAC960 raid controlle
[08:04] <Fac51> nickrud: it forwarded to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTPS
[08:05] <xanavim> T`2: your grub settings determine the boot resolution
[08:05] <T`2> i3dmaster, ok, i was curious because fedora guys do it somehow
[08:05] <T`2> xanavim, yea, but i dunno if this card supports any better vesa modes
[08:05] <T`2> i guess i'll give it a shot
[08:05] <andreetje> morning; question: my update killed the X- restarted it automatic but update is hanging says the system, also after an reboot.
[08:05] <T`2> right now its pretty bad though ;) looks like atari
[08:05] <T`2> hehe
[08:05] <xanavim> T`2: ubuntu boots at 640x480 unless you specify a different resolution in grub
[08:06] <xanavim> T`2: chances are you can do better than 640x480
[08:06] <nickrud> Fac51, https://wiki.ubuntu.com//RestrictedFormats#head-c02d7ec888c401b9b82b98a7d7630cba5a21792b
[08:06] <Fac51> nickrud: worked, thanks
[08:06] <xanavim> is there a way to record the sound stream sent to ALSA?
[08:07] <T`2> xanavim, ah ok.. also i notice gdm uses different resolution for X than what i see when i do startx
[08:07] <T`2> xanavim, any idea why this might happen?
[08:07] <xanavim> T`2: no, don't know about that one
[08:07] <xanavim> the boot parameter is vga=xxx, though, where xxx is an integer
[08:08] <xanavim> T`2: it's passed as a kernel parameter in grub's menu.lst file
[08:09] <T`2> looking
[08:10] <T`2> the menu.lst is weird .. all sorta comments on not to edit things yourself
[08:10] <T`2> if i add vga=xxx will it get lost when i install a newer kernel?
[08:10] <Cyphir> anyone know the command to compile a c source code?
[08:10] <xanavim> you would add it to the end of the line which looks like: kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-10-386 root=/dev/sda3 ro quiet splash
[08:10] <xanavim> T`2: you should save a backup, and make sure you get the right number for vga=
[08:10] <nickrud> T`2, it might, you should always review /boot/grub/menu.lst after installing a new kernel
[08:11] <T`2> xanavim, yea, but will it be lost when i do a apt-get
[08:11] <T`2> nickrud, ok cool
[08:11] <T`2> thanks
[08:11] <xanavim> T`2: just save the number and put it back when Ubuntu wipes it out
[08:11] <T`2> xanavim, painful :/
[08:13] <elknof1> !dvd::rip
[08:13] <elknof1> !dvdrip
[08:13] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, elknof1
[08:14] <xanavim> T`2: hmm... menu.lst has instructions for leaving options there but I didn't read it until now
[08:14] <elknof1> hey hi everybody..  does anybody knows about a manual for using dvd::rip??
[08:14] <T`2> cool.. 0x31b works great.. 1280x1024 :)
[08:17] <xanavim> sweet, I just modified my menu.lst so the vga setting won't get wiped out  (:
[08:17] <T`2> ooh nice
[08:17] <T`2> how?
[08:17] <xanavim> it's the kopt=root/dev/  etc.
[08:18] <T`2> duh
[08:18] <T`2> i should have read.. they have an example with vga=
[08:18] <T`2> defoptions=quiet splash..
[08:18] <T`2> adding a vga=0x31b there :)

[08:27] <Cyphir> tritium: thanks im hopeless whenit comes to C and the like =P
[08:27] <tritium> Cyphir: if you're building stuff, you'll likely want to install build-essential

[08:34] <Awesome-o2000> serp, flash
[08:34] <serp> it would be cooler if it used alsa
[08:34] <Awesome-o2000> agreed.
[08:34] <serp> oh, so it's only flash that uses oss?
[08:35] <Cyphir> anyone know what [-s src_addr]  [-p port]  dest_addr

[08:35] <Awesome-o2000> serp, my apologies - I should have stated I was taking a guess
[08:35] <serp> Cyphir: what command?
[08:35] <scheuri> Cyphir: that is a common explanation how to use a command on CLI

[08:38] <Cyphir> scheri: lemme check
[08:39] <scheuri> babo...its on their webside to download...you need to download and install manually
[08:39] <scheuri> babo...use the dpkg command (dpkg -i [packagename] ) as sudo or root
[08:39] <ferronica> any one here using Creative sound card
[08:39] <scheuri> babo...as far as I know there is no deb in multiverse or universe from skype...

[08:40] <babo> scheuri: it needs the qt libraries ...
[08:40] <Cyphir> scheruri: =P
[08:40] <babo> skype depends on libqt3-mt | libqt3c102-mt (>= 3:3.3.3.2); however:
[08:40] <babo>   Package libqt3-mt is not installed.
[08:40] <babo>   Package libqt3c102-mt is not installed.

[08:50] <bestadvocate> hey guys I got some, what I find to be slightly humerous, news
[08:50] <pineapple> how do I gain access to my windows partition?
[08:50] <babo> scheuri: can you have a look at this dependency circle for me ... ?  http://pastebin.com/726084
[08:51] <bestadvocate> it seems that the new yahoo home page has an optional color scheme that fits the currant "Human" theme
[08:51] <spikeb> haha
[08:51] <spikeb> bestadvocate: nice
[08:53] <T`2> babo, dunno.. sorry
[08:59] <livingdaylight> anyone here use tv cards or usb model even?
[09:01] <babo> what's the difference between /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin ... ?
[09:02] <spikeb>  /usr/local/bin is for stuff you install by hand
[09:02] <babo> what's the difference between /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin ... ?
[09:02] <babo> oops ... sorry ... sp
[09:02] <babo> thanks spikeb
[09:02] <livingdaylight> can somoene give me advice on tv tuners?
[09:03] <livingdaylight> darn...
[09:14] <Ademan> how come in synaptic whenever i check nvidia-xconfig or nvidia-settings   nvidia-glx gets unchecked?
[09:14] <babo> How do I check whether I have a package installed already ?
[09:15] <babo> And also, what's the apt command to search for a library inside of a package ... ?
[09:15] <nickrud> babo, dpkg -l <packagename> should show ii in the first columns ...
[09:16] <nickrud> babo, and if you would install apt-file, it provides a way to find any file that ubuntu can provide
[09:16] <rencrash> how can i browse a ntfs harddrive?
[09:18] <babo> nickrud :   apt-file: Depends: libconfigfile-perl but it is not going to be installed
[09:18] <babo>             Depends: libapt-pkg-perl but it is not going to be installed
[09:19] <rencrash> how do i browse and mount a nfts partition/harddrive?
[09:19] <nickrud> babo, herm. you need the universe repository enabled, see
[09:19] <nickrud> !universe
[09:19] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[09:20] <babo> nickrud: but I already have ... in my sources.list
[09:20] <nickrud> rencrash, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions has some info on that
[09:20] <babo> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hoary main restricted universe multiverse
[09:20] <babo> deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hoary-security main restricted universe multiverse
[09:20] <babo> that should cover it right ?
[09:21] <dooglus> !ntfs
[09:21] <ubotu> methinks ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[09:21] <rencrash> nickrud,  thanks
[09:21] <flapane> hi
[09:21] <flapane> i have to reinstall windows but in this way i'll lose grub boot
[09:21] <flapane> how can i reinstall grub after reinstalling win?
[09:21] <nickrud> babo, yes it should. according to breezy (the oldest distro I have to check, anyway)
[09:23] <flapane> noone?
[09:23] <dli_> flapane, you need a livecd (ubuntu installcd is okay)
[09:23] <flapane> and then grub-insall dev/sda right?
[09:23] <nickrud> flapane, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[09:24] <flapane> tnxs
[09:24] <dli_> if you boot with " root=/dev/blahblah ", yes
[09:24] <flapane> yes
[09:24] <babo> nickrud: so where will i track down these then ?
[09:24] <babo>         libGL.so.1 => not found
[09:24] <babo>         libXmu.so.6 => not found
[09:25] <flapane> damn the fancy thing is that
[09:25] <flapane> i deleted the cd iso image from my hd
[09:25] <flapane> because i needed more space..
[09:25] <flapane> just yesterday
[09:26] <flapane> i hope i can still find the burned cd...
[09:26] <babo> nickrud: I can find the rpm on google ...
[09:26] <greg_> can anyone tellme how to open and what to do  after downloading blender with bittorrent?
[09:26] <dli_> flapane, you may also boot from liveusb
[09:27] <flapane> ah right? yes it could be a great idea!
[09:27] <flapane> so i'll downloads only a 100mb image
[09:27] <flapane> and grub-install command will take menu.lst from my ubuntu partition
[09:27] <flapane> many tnx for your idea
[09:28] <xukun> how do I change the default video files play from totem to mplayer?
[09:28] <cheziyi> join #ubuntu
[09:29] <cheziyi> xukun, you can try repeating your question
[09:30] <nickrud> Babacom, had to walk away for sec. Just what is it you're trying to d?
[09:30] <nickrud> babo, erm ^^
[09:31] <rencrash> what is the diffrence between default installation and server installation?
[09:31] <flapane> maybe mysql, php etc etc
[09:31] <nickrud> rencrash, having a graphical desktop or not
[09:32] <rencrash> nickrud, can i run server apps on a default installation?
[09:32] <nickrud> rencrash, yes.
[09:32] <rencrash> thank you
[09:33] <xukun> cheziyi, totem is the default video file paly. I need to make Mplayer the default
[09:33] <babo> nickrud: ?? ... unfortunately alien won't install either ...
[09:34] <flapane> eh???
[09:34] <nickrud> !info alien
[09:34] <ubotu> alien: (install non-native packages with dpkg), section admin, is optional. Version: 8.53 (breezy), Packaged size: 112 kB, Installed size: 288 kB
[09:34] <nickrud> babo, you have truly twisted sources :)
[09:35] <babo> alien won't install because of the dependency issues ...
[09:35] <babo> gosh, why does everything have to be SO hard ...
[09:35] <nickrud> babo, you could either post your sources on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for me to use or simply use
[09:35] <nickrud> !repos
[09:35] <flapane> why hard?
[09:35] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[09:35] <flapane> alien doesn't have issues
[09:36] <babo> nickrud: but I thought you said that my sources.list file was adequate for the multiverse ... ?
[09:36] <nickrud> babo, post them on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[09:36] <nickrud> babo, I've never seen yours
[09:37] <xukun> when I put dvd movie totem starts it to play. I want to change this to be Mplayer
[09:37] <nickrud> babo, that I remember that is
[09:37] <xukun> how can I Just do that?
[09:37] <babo> nickrud: http://pastebin.com/726116  ... thanks :-)
[09:37] <rencrash> cant play avi files?
[09:38] <greg_> goodnite
[09:38] <flapane> goodmorning:)
[09:38] <nickrud> xukun, System-Preferences-Removable drives & media
[09:39] <cheziyi> good afternoon XD
[09:40] <flapane> and afternooon for yaXD
[09:40] <rencrash> i cant play mpg or avi it tells me : There were no decoders found to handle the stream, you might need to install the corresponding plugins
[09:40] <rencrash> ?
[09:40] <flapane> try win32codecs
[09:40] <flapane> or use vlc
[09:40] <rencrash> oks thanks
[09:41] <Sir_Fawnpug> Does anybody know of a general purpose programming channel? I'm writing some C and I'm curious to poll some people about compiler design.
[09:41] <nickrud> babo, oh, right, hoary. I don't see anything wrong with your sources (small light & to the point) Have you done an apt-get update ?
[09:41] <cheziyi> rencrash, you also need to get the gstreamer stuff
[09:42] <Bilford> was there a major upgrade today
[09:42] <Hobbsee> Bilford: kernel upgrade, yes
[09:42] <Bilford> thats what I thought
[09:42] <Hobbsee> Sir_Fawnpug: try in #c
[09:42] <rencrash> what is automatrix?
[09:43] <DBO> !automatix
[09:43] <ubotu> hmm... automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, such as !easyubuntu.
[09:43] <Sir_Fawnpug> Hobbsee, thanks man
[09:43] <cheziyi> hm... i find easyubuntu a bit buggy
[09:43] <DBO> its better than automatix
[09:44] <nickrud> all those external scripts have their issues. If it was easy, ubuntu would already have it.
[09:44] <cheziyi> do everything youself XD
[09:44] <DBO> easyubuntu is MUCH safer, automatix is an exemple of just because you can doesnt mean you should...
[09:44] <nickrud> cheziyi, +1
[09:45] <cheziyi> rencrash, doing everything yourself isn't that hard.. you have you nice friend google
[09:45] <rencrash> :)
[09:46] <cheziyi> i did everything myself too when i started out on linux (too me a lot of time though)
[09:46] <Bilford> add an Ubuntu Forums search plugin to FF
[09:46] <rencrash> things like that automatrix doesnt tell you that its harmfull
[09:46] <rencrash> like knowing what other ppl suggest
[09:47] <rencrash> so i dont stuff up everything in the first 5 min heh:P
[09:47] <Javi> SOS! how can I make ubuntu support my serial mouse
[09:47] <babo> nickrud: yes ... I did an update. I've got alien now. It turns out I had some broken dependencies on my system ...
[09:47] <babo> So I've alien'd the rpm and when I try to install it I get ...
[09:47] <babo> dpkg: error processing xorg-x11-libs_6.8.2-38_i386.deb (--install):
[09:47] <babo>  trying to overwrite `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XErrorDB', which is also in package xlibs-data
[09:47] <babo> dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
[09:48] <nickrud> babo, oh, don't do that. upgrade to breezy for xorg 6.8
[09:49] <babo> nickrud, I'm on 64bit breezy badger (I think), I'm just installing hoary in chroot so that I can get skype to work ...
[09:49] <cheziyi> Javi, you can try a google search
[09:50] <babo> I've been trying to install skype on my system now for almost 3 months ... :-( ... on and off ... there have been ridiculously large amounts of errors. I've tried it at least 6 different ways.
[09:50] <babo> I mean this is skype we're talking about ... everyone uses skype ...
[09:51] <babo> depressing ...
[09:52] <flapane> babo very strange i know lot of ppl even with a 64bit distro
[09:52] <flapane> can install it
[09:53] <babo> flapane: yes indeed ... I guess I'm just lucky then ...
[09:54] <flapane> who knows
[09:55] <makda> How do I get my system to print ?
[09:55] <|lostbyte|> TO upgrade to dapper, I should use the dapper source.list right ?
[09:57] <Bilford> I think just replace all the breezy in sources with dapper
[09:57] <|lostbyte|> Bilford: Alright !
[09:58] <|lostbyte|> and tx
[09:58] <Bilford> fresh install is best though, imo
[09:59] <babo> ok, so I want to kill chroot and start over again ... but it seems proc is busy and won't be unmounted ...rm: cannot remove `proc/vmnet/hub8.2': Operation not permitted
[10:00] <Bilford> I just installed a whole new operating system (kernel), and I dont have to reboot?
[10:00] <flapane> you're making confusion btwn kernel and os
[10:01] <Bilford> it was sort of metaphorical
[10:01] <flapane> ah
[10:01] <Bilford> in Windows, if you install a tiny callculator, you have to reboot
[10:01] <flapane> that's why from microsoft
[10:01] <Bilford> Windows makes you reboot for everything
[10:02] <T`2> damnit!!1
[10:02] <serp> hehe
[10:02] <T`2> touchpad doesn't work
[10:02] <serp> that's not nearly correct
[10:02] <T`2> just started to happen that way
[10:02] <flapane> i tried updating gui with a mac-style
[10:02] <flapane> i rebooted 40times
[10:02] <T`2> anyone know how to fix this?
[10:02] <Bilford> someone said Windows Vista will require 25 gb
[10:03] <flapane> only?
[10:03] <Bilford> lol
[10:03] <Kamo> Which server would be best to look for an rpg room?
[10:04] <flapane> i'd say to uncle bill gates that my ubuntu requires 1600mb and it's complete with everything expcept games
[10:04] <jhv> ain't dapper drake supposed to support most wlan cards?
[10:05] <Kamo> !dvd
[10:05] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[10:05] <`paul> how do i know if my ssh server is running?
[10:05] <`paul> !ssh
[10:05] <ubotu> well, ssh is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdvancedOpenSSH
[10:05] <ompaul> `paul, ssh -C username@127.0.0.1 should work
[10:06] <jhv> where can i disable join/part messages?
[10:06] <jhv> im using xchat
[10:06] <`paul> i mean i cant connect from outside into my computer
[10:06] <`paul> try settings->pref jhv
[10:06] <ompaul> `paul, have you two machines on the local network
[10:06] <flapane> my realplayer32bit can play video and audio on my 64bit distro but....
[10:06] <`paul> yup
[10:06] <flapane> video is not syncronized with audio
[10:07] <flapane> like 2 or 3 FPS
[10:07] <`paul> i can ssh from ubuntu going outside
[10:07] <`paul> but when im on another computer i cant connect to my pc
[10:07] <flapane> why?i can't manage to
[10:07] <`paul> so i gues my ssh server is not running or sumthin
[10:07] <ompaul> `paul, have you installed it?
[10:08] <`paul> how do i check if its installed?
[10:08] <`paul> :(
[10:08] <jhv> paul, theres no such option :(
[10:08] <ompaul>  sudo apt-get install openssh-server    <<< run that in a terminal and if it installs its not installed if it does not install then you have other issues
[10:09] <ompaul> `paul, ^^
[10:09] <`paul> waaa ompaul ive seen it in add/remove programs its not installed
[10:10] <`paul> my problem is i dont have the cd... and im behind a firewall
[10:10] <`paul> ill try if apt-get would work
[10:10] <flapane> so open apt port
[10:10] <flapane> on iptables
[10:10] <flapane> or your hardware firewall
[10:10] <`paul> whoah...
[10:10] <`paul> how?
[10:10] <T`2> why isn't there a root shell in ubunto?
[10:10] <ompaul> `paul, run that command first
[10:10] <T`2> this sudo is very weird.. every other distro has root
[10:10] <spikeb> !rootsudo
[10:10] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[10:11] <flapane> T'2 try su root
[10:11] <ompaul> `paul, usually (any reasonable) firewall opens connections outward bound
[10:11] <Bilford> one thing is broken in the updater?
[10:11] <T`2> flapane, yea, but i dont see whats the advantage
[10:12] <`paul> waaaa therers a new error
[10:12] <`paul> wtf?? T_T
[10:12] <flapane> i need only sudo, not root, so it's ok for my necessities
[10:12] <T`2> hmm ok
[10:12] <`paul> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavail able)
[10:12] <flapane> anyway su root could work
[10:12] <ompaul> flapane, that won't work because as the bot said ROOT is disabled :-)
[10:12] <jhv>     /set irc_conf_mode 1
[10:12] <`paul> oh my add-remove prog is open got it
[10:12] <flapane> flapane@a64:~$ su root
[10:12] <flapane> Password:
[10:12] <flapane> root@a64:/home/flapane#
[10:12] <ompaul> `paul, you got synaptic open close it
[10:12] <`paul> yep yep
[10:12] <serp> what's the difference between sudo and gksudo?
[10:13] <ompaul> serp, gk is for gnome applications
[10:13] <serp> ah
[10:13] <flapane> it worked to me
[10:13] <`paul> ompaul: it asks for the CD T_T
[10:13] <serp> ompaul: why do they need a special sudo command?
[10:14] <ompaul> serp, for some reason I don't know
[10:14] <serp> ok :)
[10:14] <jhv> anyone care to help me get my wlan card working?
[10:14] <Bilford> whats new in the new kernel
[10:14] <flapane> naw i got errors with my iptables script with 2.6.16
[10:14] <ompaul> !dapper
[10:14] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install, or other conversation, dapper will be in this channel from 1st June :-) BUT not until then

[10:15] <jhv> and dapper drake does not detect it
[10:15] <`paul> T_T
[10:16] <makda> What is the command to check wether Breezy Badger or Dapper is running ?
[10:16] <ompaul> `paul, so in the terminal and without `waaaa` do this, >> sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list<<  and stop with the extra lines of text please, this channel is too busy :-)
[10:16] <ompaul> makda, lsb_release -d
[10:16] <g0dchild> Hi, i have cupsd installed but i cant access it through the web interface
[10:17] <T`2> is /etc/passwd- a backup file?
[10:17] <`paul> is it the same with apt-get update?
[10:17] <ompaul> `paul, I do not understand your question, it is done in a terminal
[10:18] <`paul> it suggests to run apt-get update first
[10:18] <makda> ompaul: Thanks

[10:18] <ompaul> `paul, your not doing what I requested;  >> sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list<<
[10:19] <livingdaylight> ompaul: the sound of Om apparently is a primordial sound of healing
[10:19] <flapane> so payl search in the wiki for the newest sources list...

[10:19] <ubotu> [cups]  The Common UNIX Printing System (or CUPS) is a printing system and general replacement for lpd and the like.  See also http://linuxprinting.org/
[10:19] <luke> anyone know a good iPod client for ubuntu? i need to WRITE a song to it
[10:20] <JDahl> para_site, with BASH (the default shell) you use "export"

[10:20] <flapane> xpod? i remember something like this

[10:20] <JDahl> para_site, exactly
[10:20] <para_site> thanks
[10:20] <`paul> may i ask what is that command for???
[10:21] <ompaul> g0dchild, mostly I have seen people configure printers from within ubuntu with system administration printing
[10:21] <flapane> nano is an editor
[10:21] <ompaul> `paul, it was to remove your machine looking for the CD
[10:21] <`paul> oh.. heh... im using joe
[10:21] <`paul> ive already removed it
[10:22] <ompaul> livingdaylight, that may be, but right now I am not feeling very healing :-)

[10:22] <kane777> hi all ubuntu lovers
[10:22] <Cyphir> hey
[10:22] <jhv> gah, ive got thre laptops, and ubuntu does not support the wlan card on any of them!
[10:22] <Quinch> Quick question, if I may; can someone recommend me a lightweight screen capture program? I'm basically looking for hotkey support and auto-saving according to either capture time or serial number.
[10:22] <flapane> no shots about my realplayer issues?
[10:23] <babo> I'm trying to remove a chroot filesystem and it keeps telling me that proc and dev are busy. I've gone through the processes and umounted the devices ... I don't know what else to do ... HELP pls ...
[10:23] <Quinch> Kane777: I'm not an Ubuntu lover yet. I'm more like Ubuntu's b***h. :p
[10:23] <kane777> Quinch, no worries you'd become...
[10:23] <joh> Sigh, you *can't* ship a new kernel without supplying the equivalent linux-restricted-modules :( Sure, it's on Dapper which is under development, but still... Now I have to install the nvidia driver from the installer :/
[10:25] <ompaul> Quinch, the print screen button or from the menu, system take screenshot you can use istanbul (from the universe repo)
[10:25] <nickrud> babo, I got called away abruptly. Are you ok now?
[10:25] <Quinch> ompaul: Istambul; thanks.
[10:25] <babo> nickrud: hmm ... no not really ... :-(
[10:25] <ompaul> Quinch, s/m/n
[10:25] <kane777> is there a way to set some keyboard shortcut for changing the desktops...???
[10:26] <Quinch> ompaul: What the who?
[10:26] <ompaul> Quinch, istanbul (from the universe repo)
[10:26] <Quinch> kane777: Go to system\preferences\keyboard shortcuts and setz it there. I've set mine on winkey1-4.
[10:26] <g0dchild> Hello- can someone pls help? I cant access my CUPS web interface- it says 'access denied' :S
[10:27] <Quinch> ompaul: No, I meant the s/m/n thing... what did that mean?
[10:27] <ompaul> Quinch, your spelling was wrong replace m with n
[10:27] <blue-frog> I installed timeoutd on my breezy, what command should I execute o run it at boot time? (update-rc?
[10:27] <Quinch> Ohhhh.
[10:28] <flapane> ompaul how can i activate my multimedia keys on keyboard
[10:28] <nickrud> babo, installing X from anything from the repos will be a problem. If you're looking for a later X, you probably should upgrade to a tater version
[10:28] <flapane> like volume on
[10:28] <flapane> www
[10:28] <flapane> mail
[10:28] <flapane> etc etc
[10:28] <ompaul> flapane, stop spamming the channel
[10:28] <nickrud> erm, later version of ubuntu :)
[10:29] <flapane> don't be exxagerate...
[10:29] <flapane> i didn't spam.....
[10:29] <ompaul> you are
[10:29] <flapane> ok
[10:29] <tcs> Hello
[10:30] <Quinch> Oh, hell, while I'm here... can someone point me to a good resource about understanding Linux in general? I don't mean as in "how to" but more along the lines of "how does"... since having some actual understanding about the OS would sure beat having to annoy you every time I have trouble telling my arse from my elbow.
[10:30] <tcs> I have done an install of kubuntu dapper
[10:30] <flapane> so doesn anyone know how to activate them?
[10:30] <ompaul> now wrt multimediakeys they work in dapper for any keyboard I have no idea about 5.10
[10:30] <tcs> But I would like to install the kernel sources so that I can compile a driver
[10:30] <Unenvarjo> flapane, look up your keyboard hotkeys.
[10:30] <flapane> i've dapper
[10:30] <flapane> but from a few days
[10:30] <tcs> How can I do that?
[10:30] <ompaul> flapane, well then go to the channel #ubuntu+1 for dapper
[10:30] <flapane> maybe there's some place i don't know
[10:30] <flapane> ok
[10:31] <LathropWells> OUCH! My bios was corrupted while building and installing the  nVidia binary.(gcc 4.0 installed should of been 3.4.)      - Is reinstalling windows the only option to reflash it with the manufacturers  *.exe file?
[10:31] <ompaul> Quinch, the little "lifebouy" type red and white icon has a good beginners guide for ubuntu
[10:32] <spikeb> LathropWells: no, you can make a boot floppy or cd for that
[10:32] <Quinch> ompaul: I know that one. I've gone through it. I'm not looking for Ubuntu-specific, but how the whole thing works under the hood, as it were.
[10:32] <nickrud> Quinch http://tldp.org, there's a lot of docs there. I'd suggest starting with the bash guides
[10:32] <Quinch> nickrud: Thanks, I'll take a look.
[10:32] <tcs> How can I install the kernel sources for kubuntu?
[10:32] <ompaul> Quinch, well there is help.ubuntu.com wiki.ubuntu.com
[10:32] <ompaul> !cli
[10:32] <ubotu> CLI means Command Line Interface, aka the terminal or console. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands or http://www.linuxcommand.org/ or http://www.tuxfiles.org
[10:32] <ompaul> Quinch, ^^^
[10:32] <LathropWells> Using reset to bios defaults doesn't seem to fix it. logs show bios checksum error. after a minute or two the computerrudely  turns itself off.
[10:33] <Quinch> Thanksthanks.
[10:33] <ompaul> nickrud, which one?
[10:33] <nickrud> ompaul, the one you where trying to answer :)
[10:33] <LathropWells> spikeb - can i use just any boot floppy? say a win 98 floppy?
[10:34] <spikeb> LathropWells: anything that'll give you a dos environment sufficient enough to run the flash util
[10:34] <ompaul> LathropWells, you need to get freedos (11megs) and then you can boot the box with a dos shell do you trust microsoft to do that ...
[10:35] <tcs> DOES ANYONE KNOW?
[10:35] <LathropWells> Cool. - sometime i forget the trust linux gives the user should of read the binary installer text more closely. - heh.  Thank You spikeb
[10:35] <ompaul> !patience
[10:35] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Please be aware there are a lot of questions, but only maybe few who might know the answer for you. Please be patient. Your attitude may determine their willingness to help you.
[10:35] <LathropWells> Thank you too ompaul
[10:36] <tcs> lol he he j/k
[10:36] <LathropWells> lol
[10:36] <ompaul> tcs, first off it is a dapper question, and you may have noticed the dapper channel is #ubuntu+1 this might be why I did not say sudo apt-get install linux-image
[10:36] <DBO> tcs, you can install the kernel source with linux-tree (breezy) or kernel-source (dapper)
[10:36] <jonah> hi guys - i've had so many wifi problems i've ended up buying a new pcmcia card which was recommended in the ubuntu forums - only it doesn't work! can anyone please help me?
[10:37] <tcs> Ok both thank you very much!
[10:37] <ompaul> tcs, as DBO said actually -tree
[10:37] <LathropWells> Alls well, gave me a chance to add a bit more ram. i think now  i have the only 5 year old computer with a gig. - rofl
[10:37] <tcs> thanks
[10:37] <DBO> morning Paul =)
[10:37] <ompaul> DBO morning
[10:39] <jonah> my new card is a netgear wg511T and at least the light flashes on it occasionally! But it's not in my network settings list
[10:39] <tcs> Hmmmm..... linux-source-2.6.15
[10:39] <tcs> http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/allpackages
[10:40] <tcs> ok srry im @ ubuntu+1
[10:41] <blue-frog> I installed timeoutd on my breezy, I have a scripttiemoutd in /etc/init.d. what command must I use to run timeoutd at boot time, pls? (udate-rc?)
[10:41] <jonah> dli, remember me? you helped me with my wifi connection and i went to bed!! but when i came back and you'd finished it still wasn't working - well i've ended up buying a different pcmcia card which was recommended and that doesn't work either but at least the light comes on!
[10:41] <DBO> tcs, oops your right, linux, not kernel... doh
[10:42] <DBO> blue-frog, "sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf" then "sudo sysv-rc-conf"
[10:42] <blue-frog> ty
[10:43] <DBO> jonah, does anything show up in ifconfig?
[10:44] <blue-frog> DB0 ah sysv rc conf is a gui anyway i can only use command line?
[10:44] <babo> so it turns out that I have erased my /home directory by accident ...
[10:45] <babo> what should I do now ... ?
[10:45] <DBO> blue-frog, ok, yeah, then its just update-rc.d
[10:45] <jonah> DBO if i type that i get about 8 lines of stuff,
[10:45] <jonah> DBO all under the heading lo
[10:45] <blue-frog> DB0 oh ok then all new scripts that have been added to /etc/init.d will taken in count, correct?
[10:46] <DBO> jonah, have you tried rebooting since you inserted this card?
[10:46] <DBO> blue-frog, yesh
[10:46] <doniv> hi guys, need some help with jdk installation on amd64
[10:46] <jonah> DBO yeah tried that
[10:46] <blue-frog> cool ty
[10:46] <doniv> i've already RTFM
[10:46] <dli> jonah, yes
[10:46] <cth23> hi
[10:47] <doniv> still get the same problem - No matching plugin found :(
[10:47] <jonah> dli, hi again
[10:47] <dli> jonah, you your rt2500 should work
[10:47] <DBO> jonah, ok, I hate to say this, but I would love to see your kernel log and you dmesg output if you dont mind =)
[10:48] <dli> jonah, first, "lspci" shows the card now
[10:48] <jonah> dli, well it still wasn't working so i went on ubuntu forums and people having trouble with wifi said to buy a netgear wg511t cos it works out of the box. but mine doesn't! and it cost me more cash! hehe
[10:48] <jonah> lspci
[10:49] <dli> jonah, can you return the netgear card? rt2500 is enough
[10:49] <nickrud> doniv, I hate to say this, but java plugins & various other web media is the reason most people drop back to i386 from amd64
[10:49] <doniv> nickrud, i dont need the plugins
[10:49] <dli> jonah, if you type "lspci" in terminal now, can you see the wireless card?
[10:49] <doniv> just want to be able to do development
[10:49] <DBO> doniv, I run k7, really not much of a performance difference for desktop usage...
[10:49] <jonah> dli, but it still didn't work
[10:50] <doniv> DBO, whats k7?
[10:50] <dli> jonah, yes, a few simple steps
[10:50] <dli> jonah, what's the kernel now? " uname -a "
[10:50] <nickrud> doniv, then if you wait till june 1, sun-java5-jdk will be available on the amd64
[10:50] <DBO> doniv, its kernel optimized for AMD K7 processors
[10:50] <jonah> dli, i ended up doing a clean install also though becuase people said it worked out of box! so i thought old card must of messed stuff up
[10:51] <doniv> oh
[10:51] <dli> jonah, no need
[10:51] <dli> jonah, can you enable ssh for me to login ?
[10:51] <doniv> nickrud, do u recommend me going with a standard install then, for now?
[10:51] <nickrud> doniv, you can install the prerelease version of ubuntu 6.06 now if you like
[10:52] <jonah> dli, if i type lspci i get CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI410 PC Cardbus Controller (rev 02)
[10:52] <doniv> nickrud, is it stable?
[10:52] <dli> jonah, you deleted it already? too bad, it took serveral steps
[10:52] <nickrud> doniv, yes, pretty much. I've seen a couple of cosmetic bugs recently, but nothing major. But, if you're not linux competent, just wait a bit
[10:52] <DBO> doniv, in the sense that it doesnt crash, but they updates have been known to break things now and then
[10:53] <nickrud> doniv, that came off wrong :) It should be just fine
[10:53] <doniv> hehe
[10:53] <dli> jonah, okay, enable ssh, I have to make some changes, clean installation doesn't work well for you
[10:53] <jonah> dli, sorry i got so frustrated didn't mean to distroy your work, i thought it hadn't work - when i got up in morning i had ubuntu login screen and i logged in and it wasn't working and then i rebooted and still nothing
[10:53] <dli> jonah, you couldn't even see the wireless card in lspci
[10:53] <doniv> thanks guys, i guess i can wait a bit and then upgrade to the final release
[10:54] <doniv> for now i can make do with the direct install instead of apt
[10:54] <jonah> dli, ok thanks can we just try it with new card now i've got it? it's supposed to be better anyway?
[10:54] <dli> jonah, I was in the middle of building a new kernel, and by that time, you should notice that "lspci" shows your wireless card
[10:54] <_diop> my laptop detects my cell phone but impossible to share files with it via bluetooth, any idea ?
[10:54] <DBO> !bluetooth
[10:54] <ubotu> bluetooth is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
[10:55] <dli> jonah, no, I think rt2500 should work
[10:55] <T`2> is there a shortcut for ubunto to install all the dev tools?
[10:55] <T`2> like gcc, libraries, make, etc..?
[10:55] <DBO> T`2, basic stuff "sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc"
[10:56] <dli> jonah, /join #dli
[10:56] <jonah> dli, well this other card has twice the range and speed of my other so it'd be an upgrade for me and i can always ebay the other
[10:56] <T`2> DBO, is build-essential a package?
[10:56] <DBO> T`2 sure is
[10:56] <T`2> ok thaks bud
[10:57] <DBO> jonah, it should be pointed out that giving shell access to someone can be very dangerous.  dli has been around here a while and helped a lot of people, but be careful =)
[10:57] <kettenschutz> hey
[10:57] <jonah> dli, i'll just move over to laptop cos talking on other computer - i'll need to plug ethernet in on that machine
[10:57] <DBO> hi
[10:57] <kettenschutz> how to check the version of my linux image?`uname .r ??!
[10:57] <_diop> tks DBO :)
[10:58] <ompaul> kettenschutz, uname -r
[10:58] <DBO> _diop, ???
[10:58] <kettenschutz> aaah thanx
[10:58] <dli> DBO, yes, I asked yesterday, he has a fresh installation, and nothing to lose :)
[10:58] <kettenschutz> cause ive got problems with my graphics driver :(
[10:58] <DBO> dli, I know, I just think its important to let people know.  Most everyone here is good people, but not everywhere...
[10:58] <_diop> bluetooth url DBO  THANKS YOU
[10:58] <DBO> _diop, oh, sure =P
[10:59] <DBO> ompaul, thats it, I love this job, how do I get paid for it so I can quit my other job? =P
[10:59] <dli> DBO, I wouldn't even ask, if it has critical data on it. I know I won't demage anything on purpose, but I may make mistakes
[11:00] <ompaul> DBO, if I knew how to get enough money out of it I would write a book :-) 1000 problems solved the irc way
[11:00] <ompaul> DBO, no index just several of the same storys jumbled up in some random order :)
[11:00] <DBO> ompaul, problem #36, nobody pays attention to you.  Solution: change nick to Lady<whatever>
[11:01] <dli> ompaul, I suppose 500 of those 1,000 is already out-dated :)
[11:01] <ompaul> DBO that is almost bash worthy
[11:01] <DBO> ompaul, I do have a bash quote =)

[11:12] <skapple> hi im trying to get a startup script i have to work. i put it in /etc/init.d do i have to make a symbolic link to some other location to make it work or is that it?
[11:12] <DBO> jhv, have you tried building a newer version of the module from source?
[11:12] <kettenschutz> ok one mom
[11:12] <DBO> im not your mom
[11:13] <kettenschutz> harhar ...
[11:13] <DBO> humor releaves the tension in this seething pit of angst =P
[11:13] <gnomefreak> DBO: mom = moment i think
[11:13] <kettenschutz> i think DB0 knows what mom means ;)
[11:14] <DBO> skapple, ln -s /etc/init.d/blargle /etc/rc2.d/S99blargle
[11:14] <jhv> DBO, i dont now what that means. ive ran all updates on ubuntu. du mean update the ipw2200 driver?
[11:14] <skapple> dbo thank you
[11:14] <skapple> DBO: is there a way i can test whether the script works?
[11:14] <kettenschutz> could be one moment more :) im in an update yet ...
[11:14] <DBO> skapple, in shell "/etc/init.d/blargle start"
[11:14] <gnomefreak> skapple: that is a symlink
[11:15] <DBO> jhv, I mean download the source from sourceforge and compile it yourself =)
[11:16] <DBO> jhv, on a scale from 1 to 10 on linux guruishness (not word).  10 being Linus Torvalds and 1 being Bill Gates, where do you fall?
[11:16] <Jeeves_Moss> all:  can some one here help with a mail server issue?
[11:16] <jhv> no, not on dapper drake,         1-2
[11:16] <Bonaldo2000> please can anyone help me with changing my mouse-buttons? I need to re-map them entirely...so that f.ex. the button that is now my right-click is changed to being the "back"-button in firefox...
[11:16] <DBO> Jeeves_Moss, sure, whats the issue?
[11:17] <DBO> jhv, do you think you can handle getting the source for your driver from sourceforge and trying to compile it?
[11:17] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell jhv -about compile
[11:17] <Jeeves_Moss> DBO:  I'm looking @ setting up a high reliability set up.  I was thinking of using 2 differen't NICs attached to 2 differen't switches (with a third for control).  The issue is that if I use load balancing beteen them, and use a NAS for storage, will clients connect corectly?
[11:18] <jhv> DBO, yes, its pretty straight forward, i simply follow the readme, but it hasnt worked up til now, but ill try
[11:18] <hobojoe> hey fellas
[11:18] <Jeeves_Moss> hobojoe:  hello
[11:18] <gnomefreak> jhv: what app is this?
[11:18] <hobojoe> I'm trying to install ubuntu for the first time, after getting sick of gentoo's portage borking.
[11:19] <jhv> oh, is there any way of reversing everything ive done, in case i fuck up trying to compile it
[11:19] <DBO> Jeeves_Moss, multihoming doesnt make a single server that much more reliable, multiple servers in a cluster does...  I would store all their real data in a storage server farm and connect using NFS (obviously secure at the network level) and only have enough on the mail server hard drives to boot and run postfix
[11:19] <Bonaldo2000> just testing: can you hear me?
[11:19] <Sir_Fawnpug> Yes
[11:19] <hobojoe> The install worked fine when I did a ext3 install, but I decided to reinstall on a reiserFS, now each time the installer fails on a initrd-tools package.
[11:19] <jhv> gnomefreak, yes what app are we talking about?
[11:19] <DBO> jhv, just dont do the make install part until you talk to us again =)
[11:19] <hobojoe> I did a bit of googleing and there is a unconfirmed problem with the package at BUGS, also some posts on the forum.
[11:19] <ompaul> hobojoe, so just install come back before you make any changes but after you do the point n click update thing (it will be obvious to you)
[11:19] <hobojoe> does anyone know of a solution yet?
[11:19] <Bonaldo2000> so any idea to my question?
[11:20] <ompaul> !langauge
[11:20] <ubotu> ompaul: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:20] <gnomefreak> jhv: what are you needing to compile?
[11:20] <ompaul> !language
[11:20] <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.
[11:20] <DBO> gnomefreak, he needs a new version of the ipw2200 module
[11:20] <Jeeves_Moss> DBO:  I understand that.  Thats why there will be 2 servers (bother with 2 NICS + 1 control NIC) and using DNS pinging and round robin to load balance and removal from the cluster if one goes down.  what I need to know is what package is the best for it, and if the mail is stored on a NAS, will it cause problems with clients connecting?
[11:20] <hobojoe> ompaul: i doubt ubuntu will boot without initrd-tools
[11:21] <hobojoe> and I don't know what this point'n'click thing is your talking about( sorry )
[11:21] <ompaul> hobojoe, ahh that - a word of advice, leave ext3 on it :-)
[11:21] <gnomefreak> that should be fairly straight foward jhv but if you need a hand just shout ;)
[11:21] <dli> hobojoe, why not? build a kernel without initrd
[11:21] <ompaul> hobojoe, in gnome there is a little icon for updating your software
[11:22] <jhv> ok, but do i just need the driver? not the firmware or anything else?
[11:22] <DBO> obviously the NAS will add some network overhead Jeeves_Moss, but I dont think that should be of any concern.  Your LAN is bound to be faster than your web connection.  As far as load balancing the cluster... im not sure what the best package is these days...
[11:22] <hobojoe> ompaul ok thanks
[11:22] <ompaul> hobojoe, I have had riserfs eat data - I have gotten away with very cruel treatment of ext3
[11:22] <kettenschutz> ok im backkkk
[11:22] <Jeeves_Moss> DBO:  ok, thanks.,   I'll look into it in a bit.
[11:22] <kettenschutz> here is the pastebin of my xorg.conf http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/726223
[11:23] <DBO> your a beautiful person kettenschutz *runs off to pastebin*
[11:23] <DBO> comment out the line that says "load       GLcore"
[11:24] <hobojoe> dli: I havn't done a ubuntu install before, but doesn't it install a default kernel with initrd and try to boot it afterwards? I guess I could mount the drive and rebuild a kernel afterwards... but i was hoping there was a fix*
[11:24] <DBO> kettenschutz, can you paste your /var/log/xorg.0.log as well for me? =)
[11:24] <hobojoe> or at least an explaination for why it's erroring out with reiser*
[11:25] <dli> hobojoe, yes, use the livecd
[11:25] <T`2> is it hard to make a 32-bit chroot?
[11:25] <hobojoe> dli: I can install from a livecd?
[11:26] <DBO> T`2, depends on who you are... I dont think so, but most people I help in here stare at me and foam at the mouth when I mention chroot...
[11:26] <T`2> lol why?
[11:26] <kettenschutz> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/726227
[11:26] <DBO> T`2, because it sounds hard
[11:26] <DBO> thanks kettenschutz
[11:26] <dli> hobojoe, you can boot with " root= " kernel parameter
[11:26] <jhv> DBO, do i need to update firmware?
[11:27] <T`2> DBO, i'm compiling some code and i get errors about  Error: suffix or operands invalid for `pop'
[11:27] <DBO> jhv, no, just the module me thinks, did you get it to compile?  (dont do the make install step yet please)
[11:27] <l_> sudp apt-get pro-ftpd
[11:27] <T`2> DBO, that looks like a linking problem for the assembler which thinks its compilng for 64 bti or somthing
[11:27] <kettenschutz> can you see the problem in the logfile @ DB0 ?!
[11:27] <T`2> DBO, where can i get the latest method to setup 32-bit chroot ?
[11:28] <DBO> kettenschutz, sure can, did you make the change I originally asked you to?  about commenting out the one line...
[11:28] <kettenschutz> and what about the LOAD GLCORE line!?
[11:28] <DBO> kettenschutz, put a # in front of it
[11:28] <kettenschutz> aaah ok sry
[11:28] <DBO> !chroot
[11:28] <ubotu> hmm... chroot is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575
[11:28] <DBO> hmmm nope...
[11:28] <hobojoe> dli: that really isn't a workable solution, after the installer fails on that package it stops and everything after that point doesn't get installed.
[11:28] <kettenschutz> yay did
[11:28] <jhv> DBO no, ive just downloaded this http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/#downloads and i am now reading what to do
[11:29] <DBO> kettenschutz, ok, now restart x
[11:29] <DBO> jhv, okie dokie =)
[11:29] <hobojoe> So i'm without 20% or so base packages.
[11:29] <l_> can someone tell me how to enable ssh connections to my computer?
[11:29] <kettenschutz> ok
[11:29] <hobojoe> does ubuntu have a dev channel?
[11:29] <DBO> l_, "sudo apt-get install ssh" "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh(d?) start"
[11:29] <dli> hobojoe, that means apt is installed :)
[11:29] <gnomefreak> l_: install openssh-server
[11:30] <DBO> gnomefreak, ssh is the metapackage right?
[11:30] <kbrooks> hobojoe: #ubuntu-devel
[11:30] <gnomefreak> DBO: i will check but i dont think so hold on a sec
[11:31] <kbrooks> dbo: ssh is the client....
[11:31] <jhv> am i supposed to unpack files with tgz-extension?
[11:31] <gnomefreak> its a transitional package
[11:31] <gnomefreak> jhv: yes
[11:31] <DBO> kbrooks, nope, depends on openssh-server and openssh-client =)  just checked
[11:31] <hobojoe> cheers
[11:32] <jhv> gnomefreak, with what? do i need to download gzip?
[11:32] <gnomefreak> jhv: tar xvzf file.tar.gz    after cd;ing into the dir where the tar is saved
[11:32] <l_> DBO: * Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server...                               [fail] 
[11:32] <kbrooks> jhv: gzip is in there
[11:32] <gnomefreak> jhv: above
[11:32] <kettenschutz> hey
[11:32] <DBO> l_ well now we need to see your syslog
[11:32] <kettenschutz> im back, but glxinfo got the same errors
[11:32] <jhv> gnomefreak, no its not file.tar.gz its file.tgz
[11:33] <DBO> kettenschutz, can you send me the new copy of /var/log/xorg.0.log please thx
[11:33] <gnomefreak> jhv: same thing just end it in .tar
[11:33] <gnomefreak> or .tgz
[11:34] <bobslaede> jesus christ!!! can i purge an 'rm -r ./*' ?!?!?!
[11:34] <jhv> jhv@ubuntu:~$ sudo tar xvzf ipw2200-1.1.2.tgz
[11:34] <jhv> Password:

[11:35] <Ng> !tell jhv about paste
[11:35] <jhv> sorry
[11:35] <Ng> jhv: "file ipw2200-1.1.2.tgz" will attempt to identify what the file is. perhaps the download didn't work properly
[11:35] <kettenschutz> here it is: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/726240
[11:35] <gnomefreak> jhv: did you dc into the dir where the file is saved?
[11:36] <hobojoe> does /target/var/log/bootstrap.sh usually exist for you guys with failed installs?
[11:36] <xukun> can anybody help me with this? sudo hdparm -d 1 /dev/sda/dev/sda:  setting using_dma to 1 (on) HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[11:36] <jhv> Ng. see for your self http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/#downloads
[11:36] <DBO> xukun, all sata drives have DMA enabled
[11:36] <jhv> yes
[11:36] <hobojoe> It doesn't seem to be getting created.
[11:36] <kettenschutz> what about line 194.195.196 ?!
[11:36] <jhv> yes, gnomefreak
[11:36] <tomasz> hi - there is something wrong with the keyboard indicator plugin in Ubuntu 5.10 Gnome. After adding a new layout user interface theme of the whole gnome switches instantly between the curent one and Motif. Plus you cannot switch between layouts later.
[11:36] <sgbirch> If you "click here to download plugin" for flash you are taken through to the install dialog, you are asked to agree to the Adobe license but then the flash player fails to install.  Is this on the "fix" list for dapper final?
[11:36] <xukun> DBO, aha so no need for that
[11:36] <DBO> kettenschutz, did you put the new log up?
[11:36] <sgbirch> talking about Firefox
[11:37] <DBO> xukun, yeah, I spent 2 hours trying to figure that out once... felt soooo stupid...
[11:37] <xukun> DBO, thanks
[11:37] <gnomefreak> sgbirch: ask in #ubuntu+1 and i thought they had already fixed it but i guess not
[11:37] <jhv> sorry folks, i got it right now
[11:37] <kettenschutz> sure
[11:37] <kettenschutz> maybe i dont got the libglx.so ?!
[11:38] <sgbirch> gnomefreak: ok, btw what is ububtu+1
[11:38] <xukun> DBO, what about the dvd-rom?
[11:38] <kbrooks> sgbirch: this is breezy
[11:38] <Quinch> Got a question {again}. A while back I saw this little trick that allowed for terminal output to be viewed using less. Can someone tell me how to do that, since I forgot.
[11:38] <kbrooks> !ubuntu+1
[11:38] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, kbrooks
[11:38] <sgbirch> oh .. that makes sense. thanks
[11:38] <T`2> DBO, do u have an amd64 machien?
[11:38] <gnomefreak> sgbirch: #ubuntu+1 is the dapper support channel
[11:38] <DBO> T`2, yes, but I dont use 64 bit because its a pain still
[11:38] <kbrooks> Quinch: echo "x\nx\nx\n" | less
[11:38] <gnomefreak> !dapper
[11:38] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install, or other conversation, dapper will be in this channel from 1st June :-) BUT not until then
[11:39] <T`2> DBO, oh.. thats what i was debating just now.. if i should really use this 64 bit.. heh
[11:39] <T`2> DBO, compiling/running 32bit apps seem to be uberpainful
[11:39] <jhv> ok, now ive unpacked it. am i to type make install now?
[11:39] <Quinch> KK, thanks kbrooks.
[11:39] <T`2> DBO, how much performance do we loose though?
[11:39] <DBO> T`2, thats why =)
[11:39] <kbrooks> gnomefreak: that factoid is annoying
[11:39] <DBO> T`2, not much at all...
[11:39] <T`2> DBO, oh really.. sure?
[11:39] <kbrooks> gnomefreak: i'll fix it.
[11:39] <ompaul> kbrooks, if you are new and talking about dapper
[11:39] <T`2> DBO, so nothing noticable and stuff.. ?
[11:39] <gnomefreak> jhv: no you need to read the readme or install files
[11:39] <DBO> T`2, pretty much...
[11:40] <ompaul> kbrooks, you really should move that is why thoreputic and I and gnomefreak use it
[11:40] <dmt> Hi everyone - need to get an sftp client running and would like to use kbear as it's worked fine (under Gnome) on my previous Mandrake install.  I've installed kbear under Ubuntu but sftp is not available as a protocol option.. Any clues?  Ta!
[11:40] <jhv> gnomefreak, http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/INSTALL    what am i to do, and what am i not to do
[11:40] <kettenschutz> i manually opened it through the konqueror, but it should be the same @ DB0 http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/726246
[11:41] <T`2> DBO, ok thats enough reason for me ;)... downloading xubuntu for 32bit now.. heh
[11:41] <jhv> gnomefreak, just install the driver and not the firmware?
[11:41] <Quinch> kbrooks, just to check, let's say I wanted to view the contents of ls in less; I just type "echo | ls | less" or is there a neater way?
[11:41] <DBO> kettenschutz, those are the lines I was looking at too, you problem is that nvidia installs its own GLcore stuff and the symlink seems to point at the wrong one...
[11:41] <kbrooks> ompaul: i want to change the factoid, not "forget" it ;)
[11:41] <kettenschutz> mmhh, u know how to fix that ?!
[11:42] <DBO> Quinch, ls | less
[11:42] <kbrooks> Quinch: ls | less
[11:42] <DBO> jinx
[11:42] <ompaul> kbrooks, the *** news flash *** gets peoples attention, please leave it alone
[11:42] <Quinch> kbrooks: Oh. So what does | signify exactly, then?
[11:42] <kbrooks> Quinch: a pipe
[11:43] <kettenschutz> DBO, how to link to the right GLCORE ?!
[11:43] <Quinch> kbrooks: Errrr. I'm guessing we're not talking pipes in the plumbing context.
[11:43] <DBO> Quinch, it means take the output of one command, as use it as the input of the next command
[11:43] <Quinch> dbo: Oooohhh, useful.
[11:43] <gnomefreak> jhv: read section 8 if you already did the prior sections section 8 tells you what commands to run
[11:43] <ompaul> Quinch, pass data from the output of the left command to the input of the right command
[11:43] <DBO> kettenschutz, im trying to figure that out for you... your problem is... interesting since I dont know where this stuff is stored OR linked from... (two hurdles I have to figure out)
[11:44] <Quinch> Thanks ompaul, DBO.
[11:44] <ompaul> Quinch, enjoy
[11:44] <DBO> gnomefreak, where I come from section 8 means your ready for the looney bin =P
[11:45] <Trackilizer> I just installed "XMMS" with apt-get install xmms
[11:45] <gnomefreak> lol DBO
[11:45] <kettenschutz> DBO, mmh damn, do u need more pastebins from other files to figure out where the "stuff" is stored ?
[11:45] <Trackilizer> How do i now know where it is saved and how do i remove it?
[11:45] <DBO> kettenschutz, no, just ran a search on my filesystem...
[11:46] <Quinch> Oh, hey, while I'm on a roll; is there a way to playback audio from multiple sources at once? For example, I've got Winamp {via cedega} playing, but while it is, I can't hear audio cues from GAIM, or anything else.
[11:46] <takedown> !easysource
[11:46] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[11:46] <kettenschutz> ok @ DBO, hope u know what to do :)
[11:46] <jhv> gnomefreak, its just that im told to just update the driver, and theres THE driver, theres the ieee80211 thingy and theres the firmware driver, and i was supposed to just download and install one of them ... im just lost
[11:46] <DBO> kettenschutz, that would ruin the fun
[11:47] <kettenschutz> DBO, lol :))
[11:47] <DBO> kettenschutz, what does ls -l /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 give you?
[11:47] <DBO> (should be a symlink)
[11:48] <T`2> DBO, if i download a binary like vmware (which only comes in 32-bit), can i run it in ubuntu 64 without chroot?
[11:48] <gnomefreak> jhv: from what i gather they are in the same tgz file
[11:48] <kettenschutz> can i paste it directly in here ?
[11:48] <kettenschutz> lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 21 2006-05-18 22:04 /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 -> libGLcore.so.1.0.8756
[11:48] <DBO> kettenschutz, what makes you think I know anything about X?  I run servers =P  none of them do glx...  I dont even know which ones are hooked up to monitors...
[11:49] <DBO> kettenschutz, does libGLcore.so.1.0.8756 exist?
[11:49] <gnomefreak> jhv: did you do any of the checks to see if it will be ok with your kernel (sections 1-7)
[11:49] <kettenschutz> DBO, i dont think it, i HOPE it :D
[11:49] <jhv> gnomefreak, but, when i did this on breezy badger, i had to download and install three sepera packages
[11:49] <kettenschutz> DBO, dunno, u know where to search 4 that ?!
[11:50] <DBO> its in /usr/lib
[11:50] <gnomefreak> jhv: than more than likely dapper will be same way i would try asking in #ubuntu+1 for dapper
[11:50] <jhv> gnomefreak, ok
[11:52] <kettenschutz> DBO, that exists: libGLcore.so.1.0.8756
[11:52] <DBO> ok kettenschutz, sadly the nvidia drivers are quite closed, which means I have no clue what the rest of that error means (and no way to really find out).  Your best shot is to reinstall the drivers using nvidias installer.
[11:52] <DBO> wait
[11:53] <DBO> what version of nvidias drivers are you running kettenschutz?
[11:53] <kettenschutz> atm im running the ubuntu driver nvidia-glx
[11:53] <DBO> breezy?
[11:53] <kettenschutz> yap
[11:53] <DBO> ah ha!
[11:53] <kettenschutz> what ?!
[11:54] <DBO> kettenschutz, can you do this command "ls -l /usr/lib/libGL*" and put the output in pastebin for me
[11:54] <kettenschutz> okay babe :D
[11:54] <DBO> you better be female...
[11:55] <kettenschutz> naaaaaaaaaah .... :P
[11:55] <kettenschutz> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/726256
[11:56] <DBO> there it is!
[11:56] <Subhuman> hey, I was changing IDE cables and took my PCI sound card out, I put it back in the same slot but now Ubuntu doesn't see the card, but if I do "lspci" it shows up, anyway of redetecting the card?
[11:56] <kettenschutz> DBO, there it .. what ?!
[11:58] <DBO> kettenschutz, "cd /usr/lib" "sudo mv libGLcore.so.1 libGLcore.so.1.WTF"sudo ln -s libGLcore.so.1.0.7667 libGLcore.so.1"
[11:58] <DBO> kettenschutz, "sudo mv libGLcore.so.1 libGL.so.1.WTF"sudo ln -s libGL.so.1.0.7667 libGL.so.1"
[11:58] <mephis1987> hello , i have a remote user , how can i set a ftp account for him in ubuntu ?
[11:59] <DBO> (do both sets of commands kettenschutz )
[11:59] <DBO> kettenschutz, erm, please fix my horrible formatting...
[11:59] <mephis1987> hello , i have a remote user , how can i set a ftp account for him in ubuntu ?
[11:59] <DBO> !ftp
[11:59] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: vsftpd, proftpd
[11:59] <mephis1987> !proftpd
[11:59] <ubotu> mephis1987: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:59] <DBO> proftpd is the easiest, its fast, its relatively secure
[11:59] <kettenschutz> the " after WTF is right !?
[12:00] <DBO> kettenschutz, let me clarify
[12:00] <Chris_Tucker> mephis1987, theres a tutorial on how to set up proftpd on the forums
[12:00] <DBO> kettenschutz, "cd /usr/lib"                    "sudo mv libGLcore.so.1 libGLcore.so.1.WTF"              "sudo ln -s libGLcore.so.1.0.7667 libGLcore.so.1"
[12:00] <DBO> kettenschutz, "sudo mv libGL.so.1 libGL.so.1.WTF"         "sudo ln -s libGL.so.1.0.7667 libGL.so.1"
[12:01] <Chris_Tucker> mephis1987, just search for "howto proftp"  without the qoutes and you'll get it
[12:01] <Quinch> Me again. Just to ask, I've been sightseeing around /etc/inittab and something caught my eye; what's the deal with the "Action On Special Keypress" bit? It sounds like a feature that allows for execution of preset commands via keyboard shortcuts, but it sounds too good to be true.
[12:01] <mephis1987> yes , thanks a lot Chris_Tucker
[12:01] <kettenschutz> bash: sudo mv libGL.so.1 libGL.so.1.WTF: command not found
[12:01] <hobojoe> hello again
[12:02] <DBO> it didnt find the mv command!?
[12:02] <hobojoe> Ok i installed ubuntu with ext3, everything worked, then i rebooted and it started to install some other packages.
[12:02] <DBO> kettenschutz, find do "sudo rm libGLcore.so.1"
[12:02] <DBO> fine*
[12:03] <hobojoe> anyway I believe it just tryed to start X, because my screen went out of sync. I can go to a normal term, but I havn't even setup a root account yet
[12:03] <Quinch> hobojoe: It sounds like it's installing updates for the packages you already have installed?
[12:03] <hobojoe> only a normal user.
[12:03] <kettenschutz> ok removed that libGLcore.so.1
[12:03] <Subhuman> hobojoe, thats just because the packages on CD wont be totally up to date, so it'll just be running updates.
[12:03] <DBO> kettenschutz, now do "sudo ln -s libGLcore.so.1.0.7667 libGLcore.so.1"
[12:03] <mephis1987> hello , i choose  vsftpd , and installed how can i set the account with it ?
[12:03] <kettenschutz> ok did it, nothing happend
[12:03] <DBO> kettenschutz, now do "sudo rm libGL.so.1"
[12:04] <kettenschutz> yap did
[12:04] <DBO> kettenschutz, now do "sudo ln -s libGL.so.1.0.7667 libGL.so.1"
[12:04] <hobojoe> Subhuman: what is ?\
[12:04] <Subhuman> and hobojoe, ubuntu does not use a "root" account in the normal sense, u use sudo instead, the root password is randomised for security reasons.
[12:04] <hobojoe> ok
[12:04] <mephis1987> !ftp
[12:04] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: vsftpd, proftpd
[12:04] <kettenschutz> yap did it @ DBO
[12:04] <DBO> kettenschutz, ok, restart x
[12:04] <mephis1987> !vsftpd
[12:04] <ubotu> mephis1987: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:04] <kettenschutz> okk
[12:05] <mephis1987> any idea for me how to use vsftpd , is there any control panel for that ?
[12:05] <kettenschutz> sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop
[12:05] <dli> lftp is a good client
[12:05] <kettenschutz> to restart: ^
[12:05] <kettenschutz> ?!
[12:05] <hobojoe> Subhuman: ah ok thanks
[12:05] <||arifaX> what does that $@ in                      wine "someprogram" $@                   mean????
[12:05] <DBO> kettenschutz, sure, or just CTRL+ALT+backspace
[12:05] <hobojoe> nevermind then :)
[12:05] <CombatSheep> hi there, can anyone tell me the official release date of Dapper ??
[12:06] <DBO> June 1
[12:06] <CombatSheep> SWEET
[12:06] <CombatSheep> ta Dood
[12:06] <francesco_> salve
[12:06] <ompaul> !it
[12:06] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[12:06] <CombatSheep> does it resolve the issue with Totem and not being able to handle streams properly
[12:07] <DBO> CombatSheep, if by resolve you mean no, then yes
[12:07] <mephis1987> any idea for me how to use vsftpd , is there any control panel for that ?
[12:07] <Subhuman> hey, does anyone know how to get ubuntu to redetect a sound card?
[12:07] <Subhuman> without a reinstall.
[12:07] <DBO> welcome back kettenschutz, howd it go?
[12:07] <kettenschutz> ok back
[12:08] <CombatSheep> well currently I am using Mplayer for everything which sucks but I was hoping that when Dapper is out that totem works properly as it does in Debian and Suse
[12:08] <kettenschutz> i try glxinfo again
[12:08] <ompaul> Subhuman, turn it off or take it out and then turn it on or put it back
[12:08] <ompaul> Subhuman,  with a boot in the middle of that process
[12:08] <Subhuman> thats the problem, i unplugged my pci sound card, i put it back in  ( this was when my pc was off) and now, it shows up on lspci but ubnutu wont see it.
[12:08] <mordechai> i have windows opening by themself in a loop and i loose control of the mouse in ubuntu breezy
[12:08] <kettenschutz> DBO, ok it looks a littl diffrent yet, heres my pastebin
[12:09] <kettenschutz> http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/726267
[12:09] <ompaul> Subhuman, in the same slot?
[12:09] <Subhuman> yep.
[12:09] <Subhuman> its odd.
[12:09] <DBO> kettenschutz, that looks about right, put your new xorg log up and Ill tell you if it worked
[12:09] <gnomefreak> Subhuman: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg adn make sure everything is correct (including bus id number)
[12:09] <ompaul> Subhuman, so turn off - take out - boot stuf
[12:09] <DBO> gnomefreak, for sound?
[12:10] <ompaul> gnomefreak, adn ?
[12:10] <Subhuman> and* i think he means
[12:10] <francesco_> mazza
[12:10] <fblade> is there anyother alternatives to limewire?
[12:10] <gnomefreak> oh sound never mind :(
[12:10] <DBO> !frostwire
[12:10] <ubotu> [frostwire]  a free peer-to-peer application that runs on the Gnutella network. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrostWireHowTo
[12:10] <kwtm> Question: I installed the newer Krusader 1.7, even though Breezy (and Dapper) use the older Krusader 1.6 (which is unusable for me due to a bug).  I used "dpkg --ignore-depends=kdelibs4c2 -i <MyNewerKrusaderPkg.deb>".  However, every single time I try to use dpkg or apt-get for another package, it insists on "fixing" the mess by uninstalling Krusader 1.7.  How do I tell dpkg/apt-get that I want the newer Krusader to stay?
[12:10] <ompaul> Subhuman, as I was saying turn it off then put it in again on a different but
[12:11] <ompaul> Subhuman, bus (slot)
[12:11] <kwtm> (If I don't use --ignore-depends, then I can't install as the dependency breaks things.)
[12:11] <ompaul> Subhuman, and btw is that an audigy?
[12:11] <Subhuman> ompaul, so you are saying (just to be sure), take the pci card out while my pc is on, shut it down , switch it on and then put it in a different slot?
[12:11] <Subhuman> yeah it is.
[12:11] <Subhuman> ompaul, yeah it is an audigy.
[12:11] <ompaul> Subhuman, alsamixer and unmute it :-)
[12:11] <fblade> also im using kde desktop on ubuntu and when i plug in my usb data stick how can i find it?
[12:11] <ompaul> Subhuman, enjoy :)
[12:11] <Subhuman> no its not actually showing up in the list.
[12:12] <kettenschutz> yay one moment, pastebin lags ... :)
[12:12] <Subhuman> i just get my eyetoy (since it shows as an audio device)
[12:12] <kettenschutz> here i go again (on my own...) http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/726270 :)
[12:12] <kwtm> Subhuman: turn off the computer before taking out the card.
[12:12] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell kwtm about pinning
[12:12] <ompaul> Subhuman, disable anything else that is there as audio
[12:12] <kettenschutz> DBO, there it is^
[12:12] <francesco_> prova
[12:12] <francesco_> asdasdasdasdasdasdasdasd
[12:12] <francesco_> funziona
[12:12] <gnomefreak> !it
[12:12] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[12:12] <DBO> kettenschutz, it worked
[12:13] <gnomefreak> good morning Hobbsee
[12:13] <DBO> kettenschutz, =)  glx is working for you again
[12:13] <Hobbsee> hi gnomefreak
[12:13] <Subhuman> ompaul, alsamixer gives me "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"
[12:13] <kettenschutz> woah big thanks @ DBO
[12:13] <kettenschutz> i love you :D
[12:13] <DBO> kettenschutz, pffft, its just a matter of reading log files all day because I got nothing better to do =P
[12:13] <kettenschutz> i try GLXGEARS now, it should be working yet, eh?
[12:14] <DBO> yes
[12:14] <ompaul> Subhuman, okay there should only be one audio device that could be blocking it all
[12:14] <kettenschutz> YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :D
[12:14] <kettenschutz> thanks man, ur the greatest Log Reader i knew :D
[12:14] <ompaul> kettenschutz, less caps lock please :-)
[12:14] <kwtm> gnomefreak: Thank you.  Looks helpful.  Will try.
[12:14] <kettenschutz> ok sry :)
[12:14] <DBO> but ompaul, hes singing my praises!
[12:15] <kettenschutz> summary: the problem was the wrong linking to the nvidia drivers !?
[12:15] <fblade> anyone
[12:15] <ompaul> DBO I can sing your praises, but lets be honest no one wants that :)
[12:15] <ompaul> !help
[12:15] <ompaul> !helpme
[12:15] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you. :)
[12:15] <DBO> kettenschutz, yeah, looks like at some point you installed the new drivers, reverted back, and the symlinks werent restored
[12:15] <Subhuman> ompaul, at the moment, if i open the sound prefs I get a blank drop down list for "default sound card", lspci shows the card, but I can't get ubuntu to see the card, I think the IRQ number mightve changed, I'm not great with pci hardware so i dont really know.
[12:16] <kettenschutz> yay i installede the ubuntu drivers back, but i used an tutorial to do that, thats why i dont got my mistake
[12:17] <DBO> kettenschutz, well you never normally have to manually touch those symlinks, I didnt even know they where there till now
[12:17] <ompaul> Subhuman, okay, my final comment on this, you can only have one sound device working at a time, put it in a different slot, a seek is done on boot up, when you have done that check if there is anything muted in alsamixer
[12:17] <rencrash> when i send and receive mail it tells me Summary and folder mismatch, even after a sync ?
[12:17] <Subhuman> okay, well I'll try that and see how it goesa.
[12:18] <Subhuman> ompaul,  thanks for the help :D
[12:18] <mephis1987> any good IDE for java in ubuntu ?
[12:18] <fblade> how come my usb data stick cant be found in kde i cant see it
[12:18] <wedgeV> mephis1987: eclipse?
[12:18] <kettenschutz> okay big thanx @ DBO :)))
[12:18] <DBO> fblade, is it plugged in right now?
[12:19] <fblade> yeah its plugged in lights shows
[12:19] <mephis1987> thanks , that s well known ,any thing else , wedgeV ?
[12:19] <kettenschutz> one last question, how to set my resolution back to 1024*786 ?!
[12:19] <kettenschutz> i've started a game to test the settings and this game changes to 640*480
[12:20] <DBO> fblade, enter the command mount in terminal
[12:20] <DBO> kettenschutz, does your desktop run at 1024*768?
[12:20] <kettenschutz> yop
[12:20] <DBO> what game?
[12:20] <wedgeV> there seems to be a problem with network bandwidth sharing... whenever i run an application that uses a lot of bandwidth all other applications almost stall
[12:21] <kettenschutz> a wine windows game :)
[12:21] <DBO> kettenschutz, donno... try changing the in-game resolution?
[12:21] <wedgeV> shoudlnt it be distributed somewhat equally?
[12:21] <fblade> DBO, this is what i get /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[12:21] <fblade> proc on /proc type proc (rw)
[12:21] <fblade> sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
[12:21] <fblade> devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
[12:21] <fblade> tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
[12:21] <fblade> usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
[12:21] <kettenschutz> the game crashse (no wine support) but the res. hangs on 640
[12:21] <fblade> tmpfs on /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/volatile type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)
[12:21] <fblade> tmpfs on /dev type tmpfs (rw,size=10M,mode=0755)

[12:21] <kettenschutz> now i got a really big KDE
[12:21] <sczep> hallo, I like to do telnet connection from one Beezy PC to another one. I get "connection refused". How can I allow the connection??
[12:21] <wedgeV> mephis1987: i always use eclipse, dont know of any others
[12:22] <wedgeV> sczep: do you have telnetd running on the server?
[12:22] <DBO> hello anonymouse, do you have a question or just here for community?
[12:22] <anonymouse> both.  question first.  if i get it installed, then community =)
[12:23] <kettenschutz> no way ?
[12:23] <sczep> I do not, because I use only ssh normaly.
[12:23] <DBO> kettenschutz, donno man...
[12:23] <wedgeV> sczep: yea, well, then it cant work ;)
[12:23] <wedgeV> sczep: install telnetd then
[12:23] <DBO> telnet!?
[12:23] <sczep> It is not the real problem.
[12:23] <kettenschutz> haha
[12:23] <anonymouse> DBO: I am using the 6.06 beta live cd.  I have set up a software raid5 array with mdmadm.  i have created pg and logical volumes with lvm
[12:24] <kettenschutz> setted the ingame res. to 1024 and started the game for new crashing, tada, resolution back :)
[12:24] <wedgeV> sczep: ?
[12:24] <anonymouse> DBO: When I reboot the live cd, it finds my vols fine.  I can format them from command line and mount them, etc.
[12:24] <DBO> anonymouse, i thought you said you were a n00b =P
[12:24] <anonymouse> DBO: but GParted, and the ubuntu installer don't understand the volumes.
[12:24] <anonymouse> they see them as "unknown" filesystem, and formatting them fails
[12:25] <sczep> I have on one PC a software license server over UDP running. The client should connect over the port 56797? But they cant contakt.
[12:25] <DBO> anonymouse, I see... are you running evms?
[12:25] <anonymouse> DBO: I am new (as of this week) to mdadm, lvm, and ubuntu.  but I'm a loooong time linux admin =)
[12:25] <anonymouse> I don't know what evms is
[12:25] <sczep> So I used the telnet to test the connection
[12:25] <fblade> DBO, this is what i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14253
[12:25] <wedgeV> sczep: telnet used tcp
[12:25] <DBO> anonymouse, it hijacks your volumes to /dev/evms/foo
[12:25] <fightpc> anonymouse, I had some trouble with Gparted with flight-7 but May 18th daily snapshot did it.
[12:25] <wedgeV> uses
[12:26] <anonymouse> DBO:  my volumes appear at /dev/mapper/vg0-....
[12:26] <DBO> anonymouse, ok, fightpc says there is a glitch, try the new snapshot =)
[12:26] <anonymouse> fightpc: I can try dl the new snap then
[12:26] <anonymouse> er
[12:26] <kettenschutz> someone knows which channel for the Wine-hq?
[12:27] <fightpc> sorry guys I have to go
[12:27] <anonymouse> is that avail from the normal site or do I need a secret svn url?
[12:27] <anonymouse> thanks for the tip fightpc
[12:27] <DBO> kettenschutz, #winehq
[12:27] <fightpc> I hope it helps I'll be back soon
[12:27] <sczep> What is the reason for "connection refused" in a LAN??
[12:27] <kettenschutz> hey there
[12:27] <kettenschutz> thanx :)
[12:27] <wedgeV> sczep: it just means that telnet cant connect to the port
[12:28] <DBO> fblade, ls /media
[12:28] <wedgeV> sczep: because your server listens on a udp port but telnet tries to connecnt to tcp
[12:28] <sczep> how can I open the port ?
[12:28] <fblade> sorry dbo?? what tht
[12:29] <Almenfors> wohoo im back
[12:29] <DBO> fblade, its a command... "ls /media" you enter it in a terminal =)
[12:29] <sczep> The client can not connect to the UDP port ? How can I allow it ??
[12:29] <fblade> dbo, god i am a noob lol
[12:29] <DBO> fblade, so am I, dont tell anyone though
[12:29] <Almenfors> had to reinstall ubuntu to be able to login again lol. donno what happend but i couldnt login yesterday =P
[12:29] <wedgeV> sczep: do you have a firewall running?
[12:30] <fblade> DBO, lol, i just get cdrom and cdrom0 but i only have one lol
[12:30] <sczep> Only on the router, not in the interLAN
[12:30] <DBO> fblade, yeah, one of those is a symlink
[12:30] <DBO> fblade, ok, do ls /mnt
[12:30] <jhv> If that directory does not exist, or is empty, you likely need to
[12:30] <jhv> install the kernel source packages for your distribution. what am i searcing for?
[12:31] <luke> how do I make 'firestarter' start on startup under root for all users?
[12:31] <jhv> searching

[12:32] <sczep> wedgeV: Only on the router, not in the interLAN
[12:32] <fblade> i get a /dev/sda1
[12:32] <DBO> fblade, I just locked myself out of my ssh server because I didnt realize it was the terminal I was typing into =P

[12:33] <DBO> fblade, ok, anyhow, did you put that command in and paste the output to pastebin please
[12:33] <mephis1987> such as ftpd
[12:33] <DBO> mephis1987, /etc/init.d/foo restart
[12:33] <wedgeV> sczep: you can try and tcpdump to see if the packages arrive
[12:33] <anonymouse> huzzah, I have found the snapshots
[12:34] <DBO> +10 geek, -20 attractiveness
[12:34] <wedgeV> sczep: and use netstat to check if the server is really listening on the port its supposed to be

[12:45] <pierre-> !emacs
[12:45] <ubotu> somebody said emacs was a text editor made by GNU. Some praise it as the world's best
[12:45] <gnube> when apache creates a connection with the remote host, it can use a variety of ports, right?
[12:45] <pierre-> !xemacs
[12:45] <dli> tibs, http://www.linode.com/wiki/index.php/Multiple_IPs
[12:45] <ubotu> pierre-: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:45] <gnube> Is it possible that it can trigger software that listens for port scans on the remote host?
[12:45] <Almenfors> DB0 i got universe/multi yes
[12:46] <DBO> Almenfors, I dont know why its not finding it then... gproftpd is the package you want
[12:46] <pabix> Hello, have a problem with CDrecord
[12:46] <anonymouse> gnube: I don't believe it will be a problem the way you think
[12:46] <Frogzoo> gnube: check the iana port listings - I'm guessing apache restricts itself to > ~48000
[12:46] <pabix> No way I can burn a CD (k3b, Gnomebaker, graveman, xcdroast, nautilus)
[12:46] <Almenfors> DBO, yeah its the one i want
[12:47] <pabix> the error message is: cdrecorc: OPC failed
[12:47] <MistaED> hey does anyone know of a decent ftp client for mac OSX? i'm getting a friend to test out my ftp server
[12:47] <DBO> Almenfors, "sudo apt-get install gproftpd" should grab it and install it for you
[12:47] <gnube> Frogzoo, anonymouse, I have a _lot_ of listening servers on a lot of ports, at least according to netstat
[12:47] <pabix> has anyone the same problem?
[12:47] <DBO> MistaED, OS X has a shell that has a wonderful FTP client, but Im a nerd...
[12:47] <gnube> Some of the servers are under 48000
[12:48] <gnube> anonymouse, The remote host is a MS client with some proprietary firewall thingy that claims we are initiating port scans
[12:48] <molinux_jo> hola
[12:48] <MistaED> DBO: what, finder?
[12:49] <Frogzoo> gnube: http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers
[12:49] <DBO> MistaED, just type ftp in a terminal session =P
[12:49] <gnube> Frogzoo, thanks I'll check but I already checked /etc/services
[12:50] <MistaED> DBO: the guy i'm helping out i don't think knows how to use a terminal
[12:50] <gnube> Frogzoo, Yeah, that link is just an online copy of /etc/services
[12:50] <MistaED> hence him using OSX gui love, lol

[12:50] <outlawcrook> ok i used synaptic to download airsnort but i dont see it no where so i can run it
[12:50] <gnube> Frogzoo, Yeah, I know
[12:50] <outlawcrook> how do i run it
[12:50] <Almenfors> DBO, ill see if i can find deb file to dl instead
[12:50] <gnube> But that does not mean that applications do not use ports below that
[12:51] <DBO> outlawcrook, type airsnort in terminal
[12:51] <outlawcrook> o ok
[12:51] <outlawcrook> lol dang

[12:56] <outlawcrook> not sure it is not seeing my wireless
[12:56] <outlawcrook> ??
[12:57] <outlawcrook> mm ok
[12:58] <Frogzoo> gnube: now I think of it, it's the client that sets the return port...
[12:59] <jonah> dli, hi again i'm back - just a quick question really
[12:59] <Frogzoo> gnube: in other words, it shouldn't matter
[12:59] <max> yo
[12:59] <max> hey
[01:00] <max> hello
[01:00] <dli> jonah, yes
[01:00] <jonah> dli, i took your advice and went to source-o-matic, generated a sources.list - i didn't bother with sources and just ticked packaged (hope that right) and replaced my sources.list but should i have kept any of the entries in there or was it ok to overwrite the whole list?
[01:00] <DBO> hi
[01:00] <gnube> Frogzoo, Yeah, that is what they are saying in #apache
[01:00] <Frogzoo> max: this is the ubuntu support channel, just btw
[01:00] <gnube> Frogzoo, Apache opens those ports but just to listen
[01:01] <gnube> Frogzoo, The weird thing is that it may have set off a firewall thingy on the remote host
[01:01] <max> ok so all you have Ubuntu
[01:01] <dli> jonah, you can use only entries from easysource
[01:01] <jonah> dli, obviously i don't want to lose the official ubuntu security or updates - so i'm ok?
[01:01] <Frogzoo> gnube: might be a job for ethereal to get a clearer picture what's going on
[01:01] <max> ok who have ubuntu
[01:01] <DBO> we all do =_
[01:01] <wedgeV> gnube: probably the firewall doesnt properly log the outgoint http request to your apache server, so it thinks the packing coming back from apache is classified as port scan
[01:02] <max> ohhhhh
[01:02] <gnube> Frogzoo, I used nmap against it an got out a pretty vanilla repost which was nice
[01:02] <dli> jonah, I think easysource can give you all official entries
[01:02] <jonah> dli, i ticked all source-o-matics except any that said proceed with caution
[01:02] <Frogzoo> max: this is not a general chat channel
[01:02] <Almenfors> now i need to know how to set up accounts in samba again =P
[01:02] <gnube> wedgeV, This is exactly what I thought. Or something along those lines. :)
[01:02] <max> what is it
[01:02] <dli> jonah, yes, read the file generated
[01:02] <jonah> dli, good just wanted to check thanks - for the keys do i have to bring them in one by one for each source location?
[01:03] <Frogzoo> gnube: ethereal will show the packets triggering the firewall
[01:03] <FatalCure> Almenfors: sudo smbpasswd -a username
[01:03] <DBO> max, this room is tech support only, chat is at #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:03] <Frogzoo> !tell max about ubuntu
[01:03] <jhv> how do i install the firmware for my ipw2200 wlan card. ive downloaded it, but have no idea to how i am supposed to to install it. when im reading installmanuals i get Install : install it...
[01:03] <wedgeV> gnube: do you know what firewall they are running, then you could look for bugs like this...
[01:04] <dli> jonah, easysource gives you instructions to get the keys
[01:04] <gnube> wedgeV, unfortunately not
[01:04] <jonah> dli, ok thanks
[01:04] <max> what is ubunto then
[01:05] <Frogzoo> max: read the pm from ubotu
[01:05] <jhv> how do i install the firmware for my ipw2200 wlan card. ive downloaded it, but have no idea to how i am supposed to to install it. when im reading installmanuals i get Install : install it...
[01:05] <Almenfors> failed to initialise SAM account ??
[01:05] <wedgeV> gnube: you could use tcpdump to see what packets your server sends to them
[01:06] <wedgeV> gnube: if they look fine, tell them their firewall is at fault
[01:06] <Frogzoo> wedgeV: ethereal every time...
[01:06] <max> http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:07] <max> http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:07] <gnube> wedgeV, Ok, I will take a look at tcpdump. I scanned my server with nmap and it did not show anything odd.
[01:07] <tyler> anyone can help me?
[01:07] <FatalCure> Almenfors: username must be an existing username on your system
[01:07] <max> 129.170.39.146
[01:07] <ompaul> max, your point is?
[01:07] <Frogzoo> tyler: not if you don't say what your problem is
[01:07] <Frogzoo> ompaul: max is trolling or confused
[01:08] <Almenfors> FatalCure, but if i want to create an account for my users on lan i have to create a local user on the server as well?
[01:08] <max> frogzoo: what is your age
[01:08] <max> frogzoo: what is your age
[01:08] <tyler> Frogzoo, i got gift p2p running but since i shutdown without properly doing it... seems to get this error: bash-3.00$ giftd

[01:08] <tyler> Frogzoo,
[01:08] <max> frogzoo
[01:08] <Frogzoo> max: 2nd time: this isn't a channel for general chat - I think you should leave
[01:09] <Almenfors> oh i have another question.. having trouble to mount my hd to /ftp home/
[01:09] <Frogzoo> tyler: no idea
[01:09] <ompaul> tyler, NEVER paste in this channel thanks, please use https://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[01:10] <FatalCure> Almenfors: that's my understanding (needs to be a local user)
[01:10] <albinoloverats> is there a way to lock the desktop from a terminal?
[01:11] <dli> albinoloverats, xlockmore
[01:11] <izut> xscreensaver -command I guess
[01:11] <swissgeek> i'm running Breezy Badger on my laptop. is it wise to upgrade to drapper now ? is drapper stable enough ? any thoughts ?
[01:12] <ericz> xscreensaver-command -lock
[01:12] <serp> I've dapper without problems for a few weeks
[01:12] <DBO> its stable in that it doesnt crash, but there are lots of updates swissgeek, and sometimes those break things
[01:12] <Almenfors> FatalCure, ok thanks
[01:12] <zcat[1] > it's only two weeks away, you might as well wait :)
[01:12] <Frogzoo> swissgeek: best leave it till june 1
[01:12] <ompaul> swissgeek, depends on your requirements if its production I personally would wait
[01:12] <FatalCure> Almenfors: yw
[01:13] <HelgeH> Anyoneknwo if HPservers are supported by Ubuntu?
[01:13] <swissgeek> ok, i'll wait since i use it for work too
[01:13] <swissgeek> thanks
[01:14] <albinoloverats> thanks :)
[01:14] <ompaul> HelgeH, try the live cd with it first
[01:14] <dli> HelgeH, x86, ppc, amd64 only
[01:14] <maddox_> What's the difference between the livecd installer and the installcd?
[01:15] <Almenfors> can i for example.. create a user with the same login as i have on one windows machine. and by that way get automatic access to the files or do i need to "login" each time i try accessing the shared files?
[01:15] <sambrista> hello! I've got a problem with my optical PS/2 Mouse. The wheel button (when you push down the wheel) doesn't work. Moreover, xev doesn't recognises the wheel button. I downloaded Kororaa 0.2 to try xgl and so and there the wheel button works. Any ideas?
[01:15] <ompaul> maddox_, that would be a dapper issue :-) #ubuntu+1
[01:16] <ompaul> !dapper
[01:16] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install, or other conversation, dapper will be in this channel from 1st June when it is released :-) BUT not until then
[01:16] <kettenschutz> heyyy, someone knows how to move folders via Terminal ?!
[01:16] <sambrista> Almenfors: i think that there is a "renember login" option
[01:16] <kettenschutz> mv only moves files
[01:16] <Ng> kettenschutz: mv can move directories too
[01:16] <sambrista> kettenschutz: mv
[01:17] <kettenschutz> how ?!
[01:17] <dli> kettenschutz,  mv only moves files ????
[01:17] <Ng> mv somedirectory /path/to/new/home/
[01:17] <ompaul> kettenschutz, the mv command will not work on directories you don't have authority to move
[01:17] <sambrista> hello! I've got a problem with my optical PS/2 Mouse. The wheel button (when you push down the wheel) doesn't work. Moreover, xev doesn't recognises the wheel button. I downloaded Kororaa 0.2 to try xgl and so and there the wheel button works. Any ideas?
[01:17] <ompaul> !repeat
[01:17] <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.
[01:18] <ompaul> sambrista, also your question is dapper related cos xgl will not work on breezy
[01:18] <kettenschutz> hmm
[01:18] <sambrista> ompaul: read again my question. I have a problem with my mouse, not with xgl
[01:18] <kettenschutz> are there an option to move all files in a folder ?!
[01:19] <kettenschutz> something like mv All
[01:19] <Ng> kettenschutz: mv somedirectory/* /some/other/directory
[01:19] <HelgeH> Anyoneknwo if HPservers are supported by Ubuntu and where I can find drivers for a SATA controller??
[01:19] <sambrista> kettenschut: instead of write ALL write *.*
[01:19] <sambrista> or better: *
[01:19] <sambrista> mv * /path/to/the/location/
[01:19] <kettenschutz> mv * /my/folder @ sambrista ?
[01:20] <ompaul> sambrista, and your quesiton says: "I downloaded Kororaa 0.2 to try xgl" so therefore it is reasonable to assume that you have dapper,  however sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg may help with the mouse issue
[01:20] <Almenfors> oh another question. whe i head over to system/administration/disks and try mount one of my drives to /ftp home/ i cant activate it.
[01:20] <sambrista> ompaul: no, it doesn't :(
[01:21] <mohkohn> Hello trying to get an ipod going with gtkpod
[01:21] <mohkohn> I get the following error: iPod directory structure must be present before synching to the iPod can be performed.
[01:21] <ompaul> sambrista, I point the finger at the mouse then I have 5 different mice and it works with them all (several different machines also ;-))
[01:21] <kettenschutz> aaah thanx works :)
[01:21] <mohkohn> Plus it does not seem to show up in the file system. Any idea why?
[01:22] <Mahmoud85> Is there a way to use the start keyboard button+A Key as keyboard shortcuts ? I tried but it does not accept ex. Start+L .. (It does not act like Control/Alt)
[01:22] <||arifaX> ist there a way to have a network connection tray icon in breezy?
[01:23] <ompaul> Mahmoud85, menu - system - preferences - keyboard shortcuts for that
[01:24] <sambrista> ompaul: my last mouse (a non optical one) worked fine. I googled for people with the same problem, but they don't know how to fix it. I hope dapper will recognise well my mouse.
[01:24] <Mahmoud85> ompual : It only accepts the start button alone ex. Start button only not ex. Start+L
[01:24] <sambrista> well i must go. Bye!
[01:24] <ompaul> Mahmoud85, I have Alt+windows key for screen lock
[01:25] <ompaul> Mahmoud85, put in the crtl key first
[01:25] <ompaul> Mahmoud85, and if that works report a bug
[01:27] <FatalCure> !winkey
[01:27] <FatalCure> !+winkey
[01:27] <Mahmoud85> ompaul: Alt OR Crtl +Windows works (because Alt/Ctrl are set to be used with other keys) but you can not use Start+P as an example
[01:27] <ubotu> To use the windows key in keyboard shortcuts as a modifier (like ALT): Run 'xmodmap' and see what Super_L corresponds to.  Then follow method B at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79560 and use <mod4> (or whatever Super_L corresponded to with 'xmodmap') as the modifier. For example, a shortcut to use windows key + d would look like '<mod4>d'
[01:27] <nicolito> hello, do you know if there is a program to recover a damaged DVD RW??
[01:28] <Mahmoud85> Thanks FatalCure.. I will check that
[01:28] <FatalCure> Mahmoud85: np
[01:29] <nicolito> hello, anyone knows if there is a program to recover a damaged DVD RW??
[01:29] <foxpaul> hi all, does anyone know of any backup software which lets me specify the port on the server for each backup i want to perform?
[01:30] <foxpaul> i've looked at rsnapshot, but it doesn't support it. or is it possible to use rsync to get files judging by their date ?
[01:31] <nicolito> Anybody at home?
[01:31] <mohkohn> should the iPod show up if you are charging with lsusb?
[01:32] <foxpaul> mohkohn, if it's only charging, no - if it's mounted, yes.
[01:33] <Rhine> How do i format a seperate hard drive so it doesnt reset its acess path every startup?
[01:33] <ompaul> Rhine, you include it in /etc/fstab
[01:33] <Dr_Willis> Rhine,  you mean an ide drive?
[01:33] <mohkohn> it just appeared!
[01:33] <Dr_Willis> or external usb drive?
[01:33] <Rhine> Dr_Willis, Yes
[01:33] <delmar> anyone here managed to get an nvidia based card to work with two displays?
[01:34] <Dr_Willis> what file system? you normally just mount it whever ya want with the settings in the fstab file.
[01:34] <ompaul> Rhine, he gave you an "or" question maybe give more info :-)
[01:34] <Dr_Willis> delmar,  yes. it took a lot of tweaking.
[01:34] <nicolito> hello, anyone knows if there is a program to recover a damaged DVD RW??
[01:34] <delmar> Dr_Willis, i dont suppose you could throw your config up on pastebin for me to look at?
[01:34] <Rhine> Its is an IDE
[01:34] <delmar> Dr_Willis, what card u got?
[01:34] <Dr_Willis> delmar,  mepis live cd had a tool that would generate a basic xorg config file. I dont even know where mine is at any more.  Ya whould google for 'twinview' examples for nvidia cards
[01:35] <delmar> Dr_Willis, ok. thanks
[01:35] <ompaul> nicolito, give it 10 minutes between repeats, if somone knows they will usually answer, not answering is better that 716 people saying I don't know :-)
[01:35] <Dr_Willis> delmar,  i just had my tv out cloned of the main desktop.
[01:35] <mohkohn> What program do you recommend for putting music on the iPod? gtkpod?
[01:35] <foxpaul> mohkohn, banshee
[01:35] <Frogzoo_> mohkohn: amarok
[01:35] <delmar> Dr_Willis, yeah cool.. a mate of mine wants to do that... i however.... would like to span accross desktop :P
[01:35] <nicolito> ompaul, sorry
[01:36] <ompaul> nicolito, no worries
[01:36] <delmar> Dr_Willis, what card were ya using?
[01:37] <ratbagu> I'm having a problem installing nvidia drivers.  When I reboot after installing them, I get no gui.  I have to reboot, go into recovery mode and restore my backed up xorg file.
[01:37] <ratbagu> Can somebody help me with this?
[01:37] <Dkt> Hi, I got some problems whe  I try to install World of Warcraft. I can start the installer and begin to install it. But when Im supposed to change disks, I cant get any further, it dont find the CD2. I use WINE.
[01:38] <ratbagu> Dkt, try copying all files to your computer and then try installing it
[01:38] <Dr_Willis> delmar,  BFG6800
[01:38] <delmar> Dr_Willis, ok cheers
[01:38] <Dr_Willis> Dkt,  copy all the contents of the cd's to a directory, then install from that dir. no cd changng needed then.
[01:38] <Dkt> ratbagu: Like, put cd1 in, get it on the harddrive, and do so with all cds and then install?
[01:39] <Dkt> Ooh, okey. I will try that then. Thanks.
[01:39] <ratbagu> Dkt, Dr_Willis just had better instructions :)
[01:39] <Dr_Willis> Dkt,  im nott sure if the normal wine CAN run World of Warcraft.
[01:39] <Dr_Willis> Dkt,  Cedega can run it.. but its still annoying to get working under wine
[01:39] <ratbagu> Dr_Willis, I just tried it and it worked
[01:39] <ratbagu> Dr_Willis, But it's slow
[01:39] <bargain> lol

[01:39] <Dkt> Slow? How you mean?

[02:16] <v3rmap> Hi, I want to download the entire openoffice packages so that I can install it on another Ubuntu computer that does not have OpenOffice (and no internet). How can I do this?
[02:17] <naskheik> my install hangs at the boot prompt, tried 5.10 and 5.04. Am I a bad person?
[02:17] <Dkt> Okey, Thanks
[02:17] <HymnToLife> v3rmap> Ubuntu comes with OpenOffice installed by default I think
[02:17] <DBO> v3rmap, sudo apt-get install -d openoffice
[02:17] <eeaaxx> anybody know how can i wvdial with an empty password?
[02:17] <v3rmap> HymnToLife: I upgraded to dapper f6 and somehow I can't find OO on my system.
[02:18] <v3rmap> DBO: thanks I'll try that
[02:18] <fblade> how do i get dvd movies to work
[02:18] <DBO> v3rmap, the debs for open office are stored in /var/cache/apt/archives
[02:18] <HymnToLife> !tell fblade about dvd
[02:18] <v3rmap> DBO: How can I tell which ones to pick from /var/cache/apt/archives?
[02:19] <djk_> hey, where do i have to put a *.bin and a *.so to use them?
[02:19] <Dkt> !tell sourceforge
[02:19] <Dkt> !tell dkt sourceforge
[02:19] <DBO> v3rmap, are both computers dapper?
[02:19] <fblade> ok so how can i run a deb package trhough termnial
[02:19] <v3rmap> DBO: yes
[02:19] <Dkt> !tell Dkt sourceforge
[02:19] <HymnToLife> v3rmap> I don't think there's an easy way, Ubuntu is definitely not the right distro to install on a computer with no internet connection
[02:20] <webwolf_27> Can somebody please tell me a reason why my printers stopped working in Dapper.
[02:20] <orbin> dapper's stable enough for desktop use?
[02:20] <v3rmap> HymnToLife: I said that to 'simplify' the problem. There's internet on the other PC, but it's an expensive connection
[02:20] <kettenschutz> hey
[02:20] <HymnToLife> v3rmap> I assume the two are not networked then
[02:20] <HymnToLife> you could've done an apt-proxy
[02:21] <kettenschutz> someone knows an ace extractor prog !? unance wont extract my ace file
[02:21] <kettenschutz> File compressed with unknown method. Decompression not possible.
[02:21] <v3rmap> HymnToLife: right, not networked. I was planning to burn the packages on a CD and take it home.
[02:21] <eeaaxx> anybody know how can i use wvdial with an empty password?
[02:21] <HymnToLife> v3rmap> you'll have a hard time
[02:22] <HymnToLife> dependencies are a PITA to manage manually, that's what apt is for :)
[02:22] <v3rmap> OK, I still have an option to stay late and finish my job here. That's it then :D
[02:22] <dreamy> i have Wi-fi adapter  d-link DWL-120+
[02:22] <dreamy> where i can get drivers?
[02:22] <HymnToLife> !wireless
[02:22] <ubotu> I heard wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
[02:22] <v3rmap> When a packaging tool can do that, I'll go for it
[02:23] <orbin> eeaaxx: you running gnome?
[02:23] <eeaaxx> orbin : yup
[02:23] <fblade> ok so installed libdvdcss but i get this error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14260
[02:23] <fblade> can anyonehelp
[02:23] <orbin> eeaaxx: i use gnome-ppp ... it doesn't ask for a password iirc
[02:23] <HymnToLife> v3rmap> as I told you, Ubuntu is _not_designed to be installed on a computer where you can't download large amounts of data
[02:24] <eeaaxx> orbin : i use gnome-ppp. how can i configure it?
[02:24] <mephis1987> please , help , i try to install the game dark oberon http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14261
[02:24] <blaze_> where is the "start up" list in Ubuntu?
[02:24] <izut> HymnToLife: why, as it fits well in one CD ?
[02:24] <v3rmap> hmm, thanks for the details anyway.
[02:24] <webwolf_27> Both of my printers worked fine, Then the laserjet wasn't found anymore, now the laser jet is found ( but won't print ) and the brother isn't found anymore? anybody have any clue?
[02:24] <HymnToLife> izut> because ou can't put lots of pckages on one CD
[02:25] <HymnToLife> so you'll most likely have to download lots of stuff
[02:25] <izut> HymnToLife: depends what's the purpose you're using it.
[02:25] <HymnToLife> as opposed to Debian which has 14 CDs full of packages
[02:25] <orbin> eeaaxx: enter the modem in device
[02:25] <izut> actually everything I need is in one CD.
[02:25] <mephis1987> please , help , i try to install the game dark oberon http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14261
[02:25] <eeaaxx> orbin : i tried that but it will ask for a password
[02:26] <oia_eu_dinovo_> oiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[02:26] <orbin> eeaaxx: yeah, for the isp..it doesn't require root though iirc
[02:26] <HymnToLife> fblade> you need libdvdcss2, not libdvdcss2-dev
[02:26] <izut> opposed to FC5
[02:26] <orbin> eeaaxx: isn't that what you're on about?
[02:26] <izut> which is 5 CDs or 1 DVD and still have to download stuff.
[02:26] <Dkt> Build-Essential doesnt work for me (got something wrong in Sourceforge I think). What to do?
[02:26] <eeaaxx> orbin : ok. ill try it
[02:27] <root> orbin: that's weird ... your 2nd last post was outlined in red on my irc client ...
[02:27] <orbin> root: heh, wonder why
[02:27] <mephis1987> please , help , i try to install the game dark oberon http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14261

[02:31] <mohkohn> how do you put music on the iPod with banshee??
[02:31] <mephis1987> linux_galore, i tried but no luck
[02:31] <Almenfors> i have a question here. when i head over to system/administration/disks and try mount one of my drives to /ftp home/ i cant activate it.
[02:31] <Dkt> Can someone name a good C-Compiler?
[02:31] <fblade> oh yeah just got it to work throught there thanks
[02:31] <linux_galore> mephis1987: well ./configure tells you what missing that the whole idea
[02:31] <ratbagu> Dkt, gcc?
[02:31] <mephis1987> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[02:31] <Dkt> thanks :)
[02:32] <mephis1987> it said so
[02:32] <mephis1987> weird isnt it
[02:32] <rkd> mohkohn: Banshee should see the iPod in the left sidebar, just click-and-drag.
[02:32] <ratbagu> !resolution
[02:32] <ubotu> hmm... resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:32] <linux_galore> mephis1987: not really read the INSTALL or README  file
[02:33] <mohkohn> click and drag from the library?
[02:33] <soumyadip> can anyone tell me how to change the screen resolution after booting up from Dapper beta live cd ? System->Preferences->Resolution only shows 640x480
[02:33] <linux_galore> mephis1987: are you in the right directory too
[02:33] <orbin> any programs out there that can stream radio stations like itunes does?
[02:33] <rkd> mohkohn: Yep, then when you're done right-click on the iPod icon and synchronise it.
[02:33] <linux_galore> mephis1987: type pwd
[02:33] <mephis1987> yes
[02:33] <mohkohn> thanks
[02:33] <mohkohn> rkd

[02:33] <rkd> mohkohn: Or you can just sync your whole library to it
[02:33] <soumyadip> uh orbin??
[02:34] <mephis1987> linux_galore, let me read the README file again
[02:34] <rkd> mohkohn: np

[02:58] <shriphani> hello linux learneds
[02:58] <shriphani> i got a question for all of you
[02:58] <root> linux_galore: yes, it's running for root ... and until i have to reboot my system and compile the module again ...
[02:58] <root> it won't run for user though ...
[02:58] <shriphani> well i had an idea to go use pagefile.sys as my swap file
[02:58] <shriphani> i can enable it using the mkswap and swapon commands
[02:59] <root> AUDIT: X client 5 rejected from localhost ...
[02:59] <mephis1987> help me with this error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14265
[02:59] <teller> hi
[02:59] <shriphani> i tried to go and edit my /etc/fstab
[02:59] <shriphani> to enable it @ boot time
[02:59] <mohkohn> Is it possible to put music on the iPod while it is charging?
[03:00] <shriphani> but the result was nothing
[03:00] <shriphani> any help ?
[03:00] <linux_galore> root: in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf  file whats there on the Driver "??" line
[03:00] <hyphenated> mohkohn: well, it's always charging while it's plugged in. you can't put files on it when it's not plugged in... therefore ... ;-)
[03:01] <root> linux_galore: Driver "nvidia"
[03:01] <linux_galore> root: ok
[03:01] <shriphani> can anyone help me i already posted my question
[03:01] <intelikey> shriphani add the command to enable your swap file into /etc/init/bootmics.sh
[03:01] <mephis1987> help me with this error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14265
[03:01] <shriphani> add the command ?
[03:01] <shriphani> please guide me a bit
[03:01] <root> linux_galore: I think I'll do a reboot and hope for the best ... thanks anyways :-)
[03:01] <intelikey> the swapon blah.
[03:01] <linux_galore> root:  look in the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file it should show in detail whats got the permissions problem
[03:01] <shriphani> add the command where ?
[03:02] <intelikey> shriphani  in /etc/init/bootmics.sh
[03:02] <NoUse> StrikeForce is your pagefile.sys on an NTFS parition?
[03:02] <orbin> mephis1987: er, you're compiling X?
[03:02] <Quinch> Quinck question; how do I exit su?
[03:02] <mohkohn> hyphenated When I use the ipod menu nothing happens. All I have is a "Do Not Disconnect message"
[03:02] <NoUse> StrikeForce sorry wrong nick
[03:02] <mephis1987> orbin, no i compiled a package
[03:02] <intelikey> before the  :exit 0 at the bottom
[03:02] <linux_galore> Quinch: exit
[03:02] <mephis1987> !glfw
[03:02] <ubotu> mephis1987: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:02] <NoUse> shriphani is your pagefile on an NTFS partition?
[03:03] <Quinch> linux_galore: Thankyou.
[03:03] <mephis1987> the name of the package glfw
[03:03] <orbin> mephis1987: well you need some X libraries it seems
[03:03] <shriphani> no
[03:03] <hyphenated> mohkohn: it'll always say that while it's plugged in. unless you use windows and unmount and 'eject' the drive properly
[03:03] <shriphani> it is on a fat32 partition
[03:03] <mephis1987> orbin, which one , details please
[03:03] <orbin> mephis1987: use packages.ubuntu.com 's file search feature
[03:03] <shriphani> and ubuntu cant detect the bootmics file
[03:03] <shriphani> not even the init
[03:03] <orbin> mephis1987: see this one: ./platform.h:51:20: error: GL/glx.h: No such file or directory ... it wants glx.h
[03:03] <NoUse> shriphani just to make sure you're aware, your system will take a performance hit a bit if you use a swapfile instead of a partition
[03:04] <shriphani> well that is not a problem
[03:04] <mephis1987> orbin where can i get this ?
[03:04] <shriphani> i used it for a while yesterday
[03:04] <shriphani> it seemed alright to me
[03:04] <orbin> mephis1987: like i said, use gthe file search feature
[03:04] <intelikey> shriphani also of note.  sudo is not needed in the init scripts.
[03:04] <linux_galore> NoUse: depends how much ram
[03:04] <Almenfors> how do i use tar.gz files?
[03:04] <shriphani> well ubuntu cant detect anything like init
[03:05] <NoUse> linux_galore if he's scramlbing for space so much that he wants to use pagefile.sys as a swapfile, I'd say this is an older machine
[03:05] <intelikey> shriphani do this   sudo gedit /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[03:05] <shriphani> so a plain entry in the /etc/fstab is not possible
[03:05] <orbin> Almenfors: they're compressed archives
[03:05] <orbin> Almenfors: either dbl-click in nautilus, or use the tar command
[03:05] <NoUse> intelikey isn't rc.local the file that gets run at boot/
[03:05] <Almenfors> orbin, ok.
[03:06] <nickrud> NoUse, in dapper, yes, breezy, no
[03:06] <shriphani> cant i use vi or pico for this thing ?
[03:06] <intelikey> NoUse with sysvinit everything in /etc/rc[S,2] .d/   gets ran  (default.)
[03:06] <T`2> if i want to install a tarball, is there anyway to do it such that dpkg can keep track of it? (if i want to uninstall in future, etc..)
[03:06] <NoUse> nickrud ah
[03:06] <T`2> i'm trying to install vmware
[03:07] <Almenfors> orbin, hmm..i downloaded gftpd and now i wonder how to install it. there is no deb file so i have no clue lol
[03:07] <T`2> but they dont have deb packages
[03:07] <T`2> only rpm, tar.gz
[03:07] <NoUse> intelikey yes I understand that
[03:07] <osotogari> Hey all, im running GNOME at the moment on Breezy, if I install KDE using apt-get, will all my settings remain if i log into a KDE session, like my diskmounts programs etc?
[03:07] <Almenfors> orbin, downloaded gproftpd
[03:07] <shriphani> well there is no response to that sudo /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[03:07] <intelikey> NoUse rc.local has to be called via one of the other scripts.
[03:07] <NoUse> intelikey ok
[03:08] <shriphani> fine it is working
[03:08] <shriphani> can smeone tell me where to make this entry
[03:08] <NoUse> !tell T`2 about compile
[03:08] <intelikey> before the    :exit 0    at the bottom
[03:09] <intelikey> shriphani ^
[03:09] <NoUse> T`2 in the page ubotu just sent you they show how to use 'checkinstall' instead of 'make install' it builds a deb package from the compiled source
[03:09] <shriphani> ok so i just type in the commands as i type them in my terminal ?
[03:09] <rambo3> does anyone know how i resize forms in umbrello uml
[03:09] <T`2> NoUse, hmm.. lemme see
[03:10] <shriphani> intelikey, i asked something can you please reply ?
[03:10] <intelikey> shriphani yes.  less any sudo      init scripts are ran as root, so sudo is not needed
[03:10] <shriphani> ok
[03:10] <orbin> Almenfors: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588&highlight=ftp+server+howto
[03:10] <orbin> Almenfors: there *is* a deb file
[03:10] <intelikey> shriphani that impatients of yours is not the way to get help.
[03:10] <shriphani> so i just type mkswap /media/hda1/pagefile.sys and swapon /media/hda1/pagefile.sys
[03:10] <mohkohn> For some reason there are two icons showing in My Computer but I only have one ipod
[03:11] <osotogari> Hey all, im running GNOME at the moment on Breezy, if I install KDE using apt-get, will all my settings remain if i log into a KDE session, like my diskmounts programs etc?
[03:11] <shriphani> are you sure it will execute these commands at boot time
[03:11] <shriphani> and sorry to act so impatiently
[03:11] <jclark4> still nothing guys
[03:11] <intelikey> i doubt that the mkswap is needed.  only the swapon line.
[03:11] <jclark4> i tried that stuff
[03:12] <shriphani> i'll type it to be on the safe side
[03:12] <shriphani> will it cause a problem if i do so ?
[03:12] <mohkohn> Can anybody tell me how to get music on an iPod? This is getting really frustrating.
[03:12] <intelikey> no
[03:12] <shriphani> thank you very much intelikey
[03:13] <orbin> mohkohn: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto ?
[03:13] <shriphani> can i enter it anywhere above the exit ?
[03:14] <orbin> osfameron: er, each app usually has it's own config file...it's irrelevant which DE you use
[03:14] <shriphani> erm i dont want to be impatient but this is too long a time to answer
[03:14] <intelikey> no.  if you put it within a portion of code it may not be ran,  or it may adversly affect the rest of the code... put it just above.  i.e. one line above.
[03:14] <shriphani> ok thank you very much
[03:14] <rencrash> can someone help quickly...
[03:15] <rencrash> i am trying to install a printer hp officejet 6200
[03:15] <rencrash> over a network
[03:15] <intelikey> shriphani any other questions you have.  just ask someone else.
[03:15] <osotogari> Hey all, im running GNOME at the moment on Breezy, if I install KDE using apt-get, will all my settings remain if i log into a KDE session, like my diskmounts programs etc?
[03:15] <shriphani> ok i have made the entries and saved it
[03:15] <rencrash> but the printer is installed on a xp pc
[03:15] <shriphani> can i use pagefile.sys temporarily as my swapfile ?
[03:16] <cheziyi> rencrash, all you need to do is to start up the "add printer" app, and add a SMB printer
[03:16] <orbin> osotogari: : er, each app usually has it's own config file...it's irrelevant which DE you use
[03:16] <cheziyi> rencrash, if you encounter any problems, i can't help you there
[03:16] <rencrash> cheziyi,  did that but it still doesnt print
[03:17] <fightpc> rencrash , you sure data is getting through the XP firewall?
[03:17] <cheziyi> rencrash, wat exactly is the problem?
[03:17] <nickrud> rencrash, maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPPrinter
[03:17] <_kaenat> Anyone here know what I need to install to get the manpages for the mqueue api (mq_open(), mq_close(), mq_send(), ...)?
[03:18] <rencrash> i added the printer like you just said but it doesnt print to the xp pc
[03:18] <mohkohn> orbin, thanks but that just tells me how to install the software. Not how to use it. I have both gtkpod and banshee
[03:18] <rencrash> just keeps on telling me printing
[03:18] <rencrash> but nothing happens
[03:18] <cheziyi> rencrash, check out nickrud and fightpc's sudgestions
[03:18] <mohkohn> The first time you run an ipod does it have to be fully charged before you can start putting music on?
[03:18] <shriphani> yes
[03:19] <pybe> can't seem to get my headphone socket on my laptop (sony sz1xp/c) to work. It works in winblows. alsamixer only shows MASTER and PCM.... and identifies it as an HDA Intel / SigmaTel STAC7661... ANy one got any thoughts?
[03:19] <shriphani> do what the manual tells you to
[03:19] <orbin> anyone know about patching?
[03:20] <orbin> pybe: do the laptop speakers work?
[03:20] <shriphani> i think you need to go and check in your volume control
[03:21] <mohkohn> So I have to wait for another hour?
[03:21] <pybe> orbin: yes
[03:22] <pybe> orbin: the laptop speakers work fine, its just the headphone socket
[03:22] <shriphani> is it plugged in right ?
[03:23] <shriphani> 1/2 plugged in headphones give no volume output
[03:23] <Mystery47> mohkohn.....just try to use program.....thats best way to try and learn...;) -i-dont-have-ipod-
[03:23] <Mystery47> it seemed so easy to use....
[03:23] <shriphani> mohkohn what is your problem ?
[03:24] <shriphani> and yes guys another question from myself
[03:24] <intelikey> Mystery47 ah.  i see you also probogate the "try it, and reformat it." method of learning.  :)
[03:24] <mohkohn> shriphani, I am using the ipod for the first time. It appears to be charging. But I can do nothing with the menu.
[03:24] <shriphani> i think i know about it
[03:24] <Almenfors> is there someway i can force install.. my universe/multiuniverse doesnt seem to work as it should ive put in according to the link i got earlier. but cant get for example tar-get install gproftpd to work..cant find the file.
[03:24] <orbin> how do i grab the srouce packages from the repos?
[03:25] <mohkohn> I am also trying to use banshee or gtkpod to put some music on it.
[03:25] <orbin> i've enabled the src lines in sources.list
[03:25] <mohkohn> it is an ipod nano 2gb
[03:25] <pybe> shriphani: yes definatley plugged in right
[03:25] <shriphani> is your ipod options set to use it as disk ?
[03:25] <Frogzoo_> orbin: apt-get source pkg
[03:25] <mohkohn> it is showing up in lsusb and in media
[03:25] <orbin> Frogzoo_: thanks
[03:25] <shriphani> if they are set to manual update or disk usage then you cant play with the menus
[03:26] <mephis1987> please help with this , i try to compile a game http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14266
[03:26] <skeff> If I have an AMD64 3400+ processor, should I use any -k8 packages I see or the -generic ones?
[03:26] <mephis1987> please help with this , i try to compile a game http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14266
[03:27] <Frogzoo_> mephis1987: watch the spam thx
[03:27] <serp> mephis1987: install glfw and try again
[03:27] <mohkohn> shriphani, ipod options?
[03:27] <jclark4> orbin: what do i need to do after I install the libdvdcss2 ?
[03:27] <shriphani> yes
[03:27] <serp> mephis1987: http://glfw.sourceforge.net/
[03:27] <mephis1987> serp,  already installed glfw
[03:28] <the_mug> question: is there a TEXT version of network-admin ? or an easy command-line way to change between network profiles?
[03:28] <mephis1987> i try cd glfw/
[03:28] <shriphani> i guess you are using itunes ?
[03:28] <mephis1987> then sudo make
[03:28] <mohkohn> i am in linux
[03:28] <fightpc> mephis1987, do you have the dev version or just the library?
[03:28] <mohkohn> ubuntu
[03:28] <Healot> jclark4: just play the DVD using VLC, Xine, Mplayer or your favorite DVD player
[03:28] <speedemonV12> Ubuntu rules~!!
[03:28] <jclark4> Healot: I tried totem
[03:28] <gnomefreak> !ipod
[03:28] <ubotu> info for syncing your iPod is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto
[03:28] <orbin> jclark4: install totem-xine
[03:28] <serp> mephis1987: that builds it. you need to either put it in /usr/lib or in the same dir as that game you're trying to build
[03:29] <intelikey> mephis1987 why in linux language are you running make as root ?
[03:29] <shriphani> are you using itunes mohkohn
[03:29] <mohkohn> there is a thing for itunes in iPod Control folder
[03:29] <mephis1987> fightpc, i have the lib only
[03:29] <root> XAuth :  timeout waiting for authority file ...   X won't start under anyone but root ... how do I fix this ?
[03:29] <shriphani> no no
[03:29] <mohkohn> I think I did use itunes when I tried to use it with windoze
[03:30] <shriphani> you are supposed to use itunes
[03:30] <fightpc> mephis1987, the build might not be finding the header files it needs
[03:30] <shriphani> itunes is a must for syncing media to your ipod
[03:30] <root> root won't give up the lock on one of the X server lockfiles ... it was a hard shutdown that caused it I reckon ...
[03:30] <root> what to do ?
[03:30] <mohkohn> The menu does not respond at all
[03:30] <Healot> mephis1987: just flush the build output to pastebin, let's see where we can go from there
[03:30] <ramvi> If I understand it correctly, there's two backends: Xglx and xegl. Xglx doesn't suppost multiple monitors, but does xegl?
[03:30] <intelikey> root  you did sudo nautilus didn't you ?    well at any rate.   rm /home/<user>/.*auth*
[03:31] <mohkohn> all I get is a Do Not Disconnect and I can see it is charging
[03:31] <shriphani> ok
[03:31] <shriphani> look in your itunes window
[03:31] <jclark4> orbin: well it works.  thanks. now i have to get my audio running..... :-P
[03:32] <mohkohn> the iTunes folder? there are 4 items
[03:32] <shriphani> not the folder
[03:32] <shriphani> open itunes
[03:32] <shriphani> forget the ipod folder
[03:32] <root> intelikey: err ... slight problem ... I erased the /home directory by accident a while back ... there are no auth files ...
[03:32] <shriphani> run the itunes media player
[03:32] <mohkohn> I am in linux I don't have itunes for linux
[03:32] <root> intelikey: I'm still trying to get the system back on it's feet ....
[03:32] <shriphani> well sorry
[03:32] <Healot> mohkohn: you can use "gtkpod"
[03:33] <kane777> Hey there!!
[03:33] <shriphani> Healot, gtkpod might as well mess up his media arrangement
[03:33] <intelikey> root you can't startx without a home either.    mkdir /home/<username>
[03:33] <mephis1987> Healot, here the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14267
[03:33] <mohkohn> Healot...been trying to but it does not wnat to work
[03:33] <mephis1987> it saids alreaday make
[03:33] <shriphani> because ipod can be formatted only using windows or mac !!
[03:33] <root> intelikey: no, there is a home folder there alright ... it just doesn't have any auth files in it ...
[03:33] <kane777> what about QuickTime plugin for Firefox??? can it be installed??
[03:33] <tuxmaniac> any goog graphical Diff package?
[03:33] <shriphani> as far as i know gtkpod wont support ipod formatting
[03:33] <tuxmaniac> s/goog/good
[03:34] <intelikey> root then chown <username>:<username> /home/<username>
[03:34] <gavcos> tuxmaniac, meld
[03:34] <shriphani> so mohkohn restart in windows
[03:34] <Healot> mephis1987: does the makefile supports the "x11" option?
[03:34] <intelikey> err -R  that
[03:34] <shriphani> load itunes and run it
[03:34] <mephis1987> yes
[03:34] <mephis1987> Healot, yes , sure
[03:34] <mohkohn> I think I was successful formatting in windoze before. but or else I would not have any visible folders
[03:35] <shriphani> hmm
[03:35] <Healot> i think you need a "make install" or just run the binary? mephis1987
[03:35] <shriphani> did u ever charge your ipod in windows /
[03:35] <mohkohn> The other problem with this is it does not seem to hold its charge
[03:35] <shriphani> ho
[03:35] <mohkohn> It actually belongs to a freind who bought it in Greece. But we are in Sudan working
[03:35] <shriphani> and yes
[03:36] <root> intelikey, ok, I'll shut down x and try in in user ... thanks ...
[03:36] <mohkohn> and yes?
[03:36] <shriphani> linux will not allow you to access your ipod while it is plugged in
[03:36] <dmizer> my machine wants to assign every adapter i give it 'eth0' but i need 2 nics active
[03:36] <mephis1987> Healot, for what glfw or the game ?
[03:36] <mohkohn> why? How do you put music on it
[03:36] <shriphani> all the ipod options you set are applicable to you in windows
[03:37] <shriphani> via itunes
[03:37] <shriphani> itunes is the best client ever
[03:37] <Frogzoo_> dmizer: edit /etc/network/interfaces
[03:37] <shriphani> did u get a cd with your ipod ?
[03:37] <dmizer> done.
[03:37] <mohkohn> yep
[03:37] <mohkohn> for windoze mac
[03:37] <rohan> http://www.technologyevangelist.com/2006/05/ubuntu_linux_dapper.html --> how in hell does this guys screenshot looks anything like dapper alpha7 ? did he review the wrong stuff ?!
[03:37] <shriphani> restart in windows and install the packages
[03:38] <mohkohn> What packages?
[03:38] <root> intelikey: no, I still get the same error, I've mkdir /home/user and chown user user ... :-(
[03:38] <shriphani> itunes and ipod updater
[03:38] <Frogzoo_> root: running irc as root is not recommended
[03:38] <shriphani> you need both of them
[03:38] <mohkohn> in windoze. How does that help me in linux?
[03:38] <Paradosso> hi everybody
[03:38] <dmizer> Frogzoo_ i have edited interfaces, but i still only see eth0 in ifconfig.
[03:38] <Paradosso> anybody had any luck installing artwiz fonts in ubuntu?
[03:38] <intelikey> Frogzoo_ i don't think thats by choice.
[03:38] <mohkohn> Do you mean install them to the ipod?
[03:39] <shriphani> dont you have windows ?
[03:39] <root> Frogzoo_: indeed .... I don't have any choice ... x won't work in user ...
[03:39] <pybe> installed an update to alsa that came up on apt, still no joy though. Ubuntu just doesn't see any thing on my sound card other than MASTER & PMC
[03:39] <gnomefreak> shriphani: and mohkohn for talk about ipod @ windows please continue it in #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:39] <Frogzoo_> dmizer: sudo ifup eth1
[03:39] <shriphani> ok
[03:39] <root> I'm trying to fix it now ... pls don't hack me :-)
[03:39] <shriphani> come to that room mohkohn
[03:39] <Healot> rohan: don't pay attention to people saying "I decided to try out Linux again"
[03:39] <dmizer> Frogzoo_ "no such device"
[03:39] <mohkohn> yes but I don't connect to the net with it? gnomefreak I am trying to get it to work in ubuntu
[03:39] <Frogzoo_> root: have you tried 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' ?
[03:39] <Healot> absolutely they don't have idea how to run an OS :-
[03:40] <Frogzoo_> dmizer: you need to create eth1 in /etc/network/interfaces
[03:40] <intelikey> Frogzoo_ root is running X
[03:40] <dmizer> Frogzoo_ i have an eth1 created in interfaces with static ip.
[03:40] <shriphani> come to the #ubuntu-offtopic room mohkohn
[03:40] <eddy> eddy
[03:41] <rohan> lol, Healot
[03:41] <Frogzoo_> intelikey: urgh...   ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:41] <Frogzoo_> root: ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:42] <[Spooky] > i dont have ssh or sshd installed and yet the port 22 is open can i close it ?
[03:42] <root> Frogzoo_, -rw-r--r--  1 root root 3643 2006-05-19 22:27 /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:42] <mephis1987> Healot, mephis1987@system:~/Desktop/glfw-2.5$ make install
[03:42] <mephis1987> make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[03:42] <smacky_wolf> Meow. Anyone played with builtin nForce sound drivers for Breezy 64bit before?
[03:42] <root> Frogzoo_,  user can read my X conf file ...
[03:42] <intelikey> root can ya kill x  login as user and irssi back here.  so we can at least see the error messages that startx gives.     or does a console scare you ?
[03:42] <mephis1987> Healot, it said so , means do not need to install
[03:42] <mephis1987> what should i do next with the game
[03:43] <doubler> hi
[03:43] <doubler> can i make a question?
[03:43] <Frogzoo_> root: /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:43] <root> intelikey: no, I use the console 80% of the time ... I've never used irssi though ...
[03:43] <Healot> mephis1987: as I am not familiar with that game you're trying to compile, it is better that you read the documentation throughly
[03:43] <root> Frogzoo_, but it's started already ?
[03:44] <doubler> i have installed ubuntu 5.10 ... but i don't know which is the default password for the root user. Can someone help me?
[03:44] <doubler> thanks
[03:44] <dmizer> Frogzoo_ copy of my interfaces here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=177768
[03:44] <Frogzoo_> root: so 'ctrl alt F7' & login ?
[03:44] <Healot> doubler: there isn't any
[03:44] <intelikey> root it is installed by default and is pretty simple.   irssi irc.freenode.net      then /j #ubuntu
[03:44] <Healot> doubler: to access root account do "sudo su", and next type your own password
[03:44] <root> intelikey: that'll give you my X errors ?
[03:45] <intelikey> root  we can go over them togather.
[03:45] <PTK> I'm having trouble witht he XV video sink of GStreamer.. it only shows about half the image and image has scanlines
[03:45] <doubler> thanks now i try
[03:45] <doubler> yeah it's ok :D
[03:45] <doubler> many thanks
[03:45] <[Spooky] > i dont have ssh or sshd installed and yet the port 22 is open can i close it ?
[03:45] <root> intelikey: ok no probs ...
[03:46] <smacky_wolf> Any nVidia + 64bit users here?
[03:46] <[Spooky] > guess not
[03:46] <Healot> [Spooky] : close the port? did you mean the port is open?
[03:46] <Healot> even though you don't have ssh(D) installed?
[03:47] <Healot> !nvidia
[03:47] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:47] <Healot> smacky_wolf: follow that link, may the source be with you
[03:47] <smacky_wolf> healot: done that, just need to get my sound working
[03:47] <dmizer> heh
[03:47] <[Spooky] > Healot: mm and i dont want it open...
[03:48] <smacky_wolf> healot: i had to wave a dead chicken corpse at my machine to make it work
[03:48] <babo> cool ... I'm on irc in the command line ... :-)
[03:48] <Healot> [Spooky] : it's the GDM working with its child process...
[03:48] <intelikey> babo  ok now as a user try startx and lets see what error you get
[03:48] <Healot> "ps aux | grep ssh" >> [Spooky] 
[03:48] <[Spooky] > Healot: ok well then its a security hole ?
[03:49] <Healot> [Spooky] : absolutely not
[03:49] <babo> intelikey: you mean type startx in another terminal ?
[03:49] <intelikey> yes
[03:49] <Healot> [Spooky] : see where the port is bound to?
[03:49] <Born_In_Xixax> hopefully quick one: need either way to download new kernel headers from my windows box (ftp?), and/or how to re-detect my network card (vmware)
[03:50] <Healot> [Spooky] : as long as you don't change anything of the ssh(d) config, you'll be fine
[03:50] <intelikey> babo being a 80% console user you do use gpm, don't you?
[03:50] <babo> intelikey: no, usually just emacs ... :-)
[03:50] <babo> editing, that kinda thing ...
[03:51] <intelikey> gpm makes copy/paste simple in console
[03:51] <Healot> Born_In_Xixax: you can use the precompiled driver, using VMware 5.5 build 19175
[03:51] <intelikey> babo anyway what error are you seeing ?
[03:51] <Born_In_Xixax> this works for dapper with the ..23 kernel?
[03:51] <babo> intelikey... weird thing is ... is that it's working now ... :-)
[03:51] <Healot> nay.... Born_In_Xixax, not the latest/testing version of ubuntu
[03:52] <intelikey> babo yeah.... owning your home works wonders.....
[03:52] <Healot> 5.10, 5.04 on either 32/64bit release only
[03:52] <babo> I guess maybe root was hogging the lock file ... but a while ago I started X without starting root and it still didn't work,
[03:52] <[Spooky] > Healot: how ?
[03:52] <Born_In_Xixax> ya ..23 broke vmware networking, now shows no nic in network mgr...need to rebuild the vmware tools, but catch-22 - updater didn't install the new headers
[03:53] <babo> and before that I shut down root and started x as user and that didn't work either ...
[03:53] <intelikey> babo  before you woned your homw ?
[03:53] <Healot> [Spooky] : do u need to change the sshd settings? i don;t think so :-
[03:53] <intelikey> home
[03:53] <babo> intelikey: owned my own home ?
[03:53] <[Spooky] > Healot: ok i removed the sshd and ssh
[03:53] <babo> intelikey: does this mean I can use Irc in emacs ?
[03:53] <Healot> [Spooky] : I repeat, that's not a security hole...
[03:54] <intelikey> chown babo:babo /home/babo
[03:54] <intelikey> babo i'm not an emac'r but yeah i think so.
[03:54] <jryer_>  Urgente/ayuda - Where can I download language support for spanish? Donde se descarga soporte de idiomas para espaniol?

[03:56] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:56] <babo> intelikey: ok thanks for your help (and Frogzoo too) ... I was thinking about getting rid of ubuntu and installing slack, but you've changed my mind :-)
[03:56] <intelikey> babo sorry we messed your plans up....
[03:56] <intelikey> :)
[03:57] <jryer_> Where can I download language support for spanish? Donde se descarga soporte de idiomas para espaniol? I need to install edubuntu spanish in a lab without internet from a CD.
[03:57] <jdmpike> can someone help me with a backup script I am trying to run?
[03:57] <babo> I might install 32 bit instead of 64 though, I've been chasing dependencies for weeks now trying to get skype istalled on 64 bit and it just ain't happening ...
[03:57] <mekanzoo> when will the next version of ubuntu get released?
[03:57] <smacky_wolf> babo: 64bit is the devil :(
[03:57] <intelikey> babo as far as i can tell....  linux is linux is linux    only the distro scripts (configs and such) are different.
[03:57] <babo> well, that and various compiler errors, and chroot stuff ...
[03:58] <dmizer> babo ... for skype setup, most of the problem is sound configuration.
[03:58] <eyedol> is there a tool i can use to read chm file?
[03:58] <dmizer> have you gotten it actually running?
[03:58] <jdmpike> I am using --exclude=/media and it is still backing up /media/*
[03:59] <Almenfors> anyone running gproftpd who could help me out abit?
[03:59] <babo> dmizer, gosh no - I haven't even made it as far as the alsa driver, or the skype hijacker wrapper issues yet ... I'm still trying to get the libraries installed ... :-(
[03:59] <linux_galore> Ive put of updating to 64 bit because there are too many things that havent been ported over yet
[03:59] <eyedol> can i open chm file on my ubuntu?
[03:59] <dmizer> babo ... er, sorry man.  went easy for me.
[03:59] <intelikey> ok i'm out for a bit.
[04:00] <linux_galore> eyedol: yes
[04:00] <eyedol> linux_galore: please how?
[04:00] <linux_galore> eyedol: well I use an app called kchm
[04:00] <babo> linux_galore: yes, I chrooted a 32 bit hoary system as an add-on, but it didn't have the libs ... then I tried to delete it and it wouldn't delete /proc or /home or /tmp ... then I pressed rm /home instead of rm /chroot/home ... :-(
[04:00] <linux_galore> <-- on kubuntu
[04:01] <acuster> Hey all,
[04:01] <linux_galore> babo: stick to my dual Xeon workstation, everything works
[04:01] <dmizer> babo ... doh!
[04:01] <babo> dmizer: what did you do exactly ?
[04:01] <acuster> what's the cannonical way to swap caps-lock and backspace?
[04:01] <Lathiat> _kaenat: you need a line that
[04:01] <eyedol> linux_galore:oh ok i'm on gnome is the a gnome equivalent of kchm?
[04:01] <babo> dmizer: indeed ... rm is evil ...
[04:01] <Lathiat> _kaenat: jsut says 'breezy but also includes multiverse
[04:01] <babo> especially on ext3 ...
[04:01] <Lathiat> _kaenat: if you pastebin your sources.list i'll tell you wt you need to change
[04:02] <babo> and yes I should have backups ...
[04:02] <dmizer> babo: i just compiled it from source and it went.
[04:02] <acuster> I have an old X script but that now breaks in ubuntu if I set the "compose" key in the Gnome Keyboard options
[04:02] <linux_galore> eyedol: gnochm
[04:02] <Born_In_Xixax> is there a way i can get the ..23 linux headers via FTP, or some method besides apt-get...as my network is dead?
[04:02] <smacky_wolf> I really need some help in fixing my sound. I have the drivers all compiled correctly, but nothing is found anywhere
[04:02] <acuster> Presumably, gnome is overriding my startup script with its own input method (whatever that is)
[04:02] <babo> dmizer ... hmmm ... I tried that but there was something wrong with the make file settings ... did you have to tweak the compliation flags ?
[04:02] <Lathiat> Born_In_Xixax: you could grab the package
[04:02] <acuster> anyone know of docs I can read?
[04:03] <the_mug> any idea how to change network profiles from the command line??
[04:03] <eyedol> linux_galore:thanx
[04:03] <bwbettin> Hello everyone.  I've been using Debian for the past 2 years or so; Stable for my web server and office stuff, Testing for my own personal computer and laptop.  I spent some time checking out the Ubuntu website and documentation, and I must say I'm excited about checking it out and perhaps making the switch.
[04:03] <linux_galore> eyedol: http://gnochm.sourceforge.net/
[04:03] <babo> also their static binary with qt compiled in was missing some shared libraries .... :-(
[04:03] <bwbettin> Are there any websites or documentation that compare Debian vs. Ubuntu?
[04:03] <babo> I still don't get how a static binary even needs shared libraries ..
[04:03] <Lathiat> http://archive.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.15/linux-headers-2.6.15-23_2.6.15-23.35_i386.deb
[04:03] <dmizer> babo: you know what ... i  happened to look, you're trying to do it for amd64 aren't you?
[04:03] <Born_In_Xixax> super
[04:03] <babo> dmizer: yes...
[04:03] <dmizer> shoot.
[04:04] <dmizer> that's why it went easy for me and not you.
[04:04] <eyedol> linux_galore:checking that
[04:04] <babo> dmizer: shoot what ? ... god knows I've been tempted at times ...
[04:04] <_kaenat> Lathiat: http://pastebin.com/726535
[04:04] <dmizer> i am not using the 64 bit kernel.
[04:04] <eyedol> linux_galore: got it in synaptic
[04:04] <babo> dmizer: what are you using ?
[04:04] <linux_galore> eyedol: use that then
[04:05] <dmizer> i386
[04:05] <babo> on ubuntu 32 ...
[04:05] <eyedol> linux_galore: download in progress
[04:05] <dmizer> ues.
[04:05] <dmizer> er ... = yes
[04:05] <babo> dmizer: that would explain it then ...
[04:05] <dmizer> hence ... "shoot"
[04:05] <byteshack> is it ok to install debian packages in ubuntu? what are the issues with doing this?
[04:05] <babo> is there any easyubuntu script for 32 bit that installs skype ?
[04:06] <dmizer> get the script from skype's site.
[04:06] <linux_galore> byteshack: things can break
[04:06] <Lathiat> _kaenat: if yo ulook at line 19 and 20
[04:06] <dmizer> i believe there is a fantastic how to in the wiki too.
[04:06] <byteshack> are the scripts to generate ubuntu packages publicly available?
[04:06] <Lathiat> _kaenat: add " multiverse" onto the end of both of those
[04:06] <Lathiat> so it'l read ... universe multiverse
[04:06] <Lathiat> then apt-get update
[04:06] <gnomefreak> byteshack: getting them from the debian repos is a bad idea but downloading and installing a .deb file is ok
[04:06] <babo> dmizer: yes, I guess ... skype goes out of it's way not to support 64 bit linux though ...
[04:06] <byteshack> hopefully those packages *are* created from scripts and not hand made every time...
[04:07] <dmizer> babo ... i don't think they're avoiding it, they just don't see enough market to produce a version for it.
[04:07] <_kaenat> Lathiat: Ok. thanks :)
[04:07] <byteshack> I've read quite a bit about generating my own .debs, but I'm looking for the scripts the the package maintaners used to generate theirs
[04:07] <linux_galore> byteshack: if your going to build packages then you have to download and compile the source anyway so why bother unless your redistributing the package
[04:07] <byteshack> or, do package maintainers do that by hand?
[04:08] <linux_galore> byteshack: just build from source, its what i do
[04:08] <byteshack> linux_galore: build from the src packages, or just from plain upstream source?
[04:09] <babo> dmizer: hmmm ... but their slogan is 'just download and use ...' or something like that ... it should be 'just download and use ... unless you're running a 64 bit OS'
[04:09] <linux_galore> byteshack: I build from the tarballs on the projects home page
[04:09] <babo> dmizer: don't you feel that you are missin out on something ... running 32 bit OS on a 64 bit chip ?
[04:09] <dmizer> babo: welcome to corporate skype.
[04:09] <max> can someone help me with my ubuntu
[04:09] <dmizer> babo: i don't have a 64 bit chip so ...
[04:10] <byteshack> !ask
[04:10] <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.
[04:10] <dmizer> otherwise, my answer would be an enphatic yes.
[04:10] <babo> dmizer: oh, ok then ... the difference in speed is negilible anyway if you ask me ...
[04:10] <eyedol> i read some where on ubuntuforum that  sun java is in multiverse has any one tried grabbing it
[04:10] <linux_galore> Ive got skype as clear as a whistle under Linux but windows<->Linux has a nasty lag, to be honest windows<->windows is worse
[04:10] <babo> dmizer: maybe if you are rendering graphics or running control systems or something ...
[04:11] <dmizer> babo: but you got the cool thing goin'.
[04:11] <Healot> eyedol: that's sun java package is from seveas repos it think
[04:11] <dmizer> babo: honestly, i wouldn't have any idea what the advantage would be.
[04:11] <linux_galore> windows machines seem to be crap at real time audio over the net
[04:11] <babo> dmizer: yes, but I need skype ... :-(
[04:11] <Healot> linux_galore: nay
[04:11] <dmizer> you could install qemu
[04:11] <dmizer> and run it in a vm
[04:11] <gnomefreak> byteshack: try this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources
[04:11] <babo> I've tried wengo, it has 'issues' as well ...
[04:11] <max> ok why when i downloads the speed go to 10.0
[04:12] <gnomefreak> Healot: on dapper its in multiverse
[04:12] <gnomefreak> java changed their licence
[04:12] <dmizer> babo: with a 64 bit processor, you should have no problem running a virtual machine windows.
[04:12] <eyedol> Healot: so sudo apt-get install <what to grab it>
[04:12] <Seantater> what's the absolute floor for specs an average linux computer can run on?
[04:12] <dmizer> babo:or ... a vm 32 bit ubuntu for that matter.
[04:12] <Healot> java still uses Sun Binary License
[04:12] <max> ok and why with Ubuntu i can not load Java
[04:13] <linux_galore> Seantater: they have Linux running on my router and it has 16mb of ram
[04:13] <dmizer> babo: and qemu works in amd64
[04:13] <linux_galore> Seantater: Linux can be scaled, its not so much what you can run Linux on but what "you" want to run
[04:13] <Healot> eyedol: duh, i know that...
[04:13] <babo> the one thing that drives me nuts about ubuntu/debian, is the way it installs apache ... something like 5 config files, various overlapping hosts_allowed files, hosts_restricted (or whatever) and other crap which serves to make apache that much more complicated than it needs to be ...
[04:14] <Healot> but putting Sun's stuff under any GNU/Linux repos, that is sick "-"
[04:14] <babo> dmizer: yes, but skype have free callout ... or at least according to slashdot they do anyway ...
[04:14] <jhv> how do i connect to wireless networks? my card cant find any networks all of the sudden, i think i did something wrong
[04:14] <eyedol> Healot: what is the package name that is what i want to know
[04:14] <Healot> eyedol: apt-cache search java
[04:14] <dmizer> babo:us to us or canada to canada.
[04:14] <jhv> when im typing iwlist scanning i cant find any networks
[04:14] <babo> dmizer: really ?
[04:14] <dmizer> babo: really.
[04:15] <dmizer> i'm in japan and i get charged.
[04:15] <linux_galore> Seantater: for a normal desktop you need at least a P3 450 with 128mb of ram
[04:15] <babo> goddam fascists ...
[04:15] <gnomefreak> babo: language
[04:15] <dmizer> babo: it actually says it in the announcement ... but you have to read close.
[04:15] <dmizer> lol
[04:15] <babo> maybe I could proxy in and ring people in the us for free ...
[04:15] <babo> ?
[04:15] <max> did someone talk french
[04:16] <linux_galore> Seantater: if you use xubuntu instead of Ubuntu you can happily use a P1 133 with 32mb of ram
[04:16] <gnomefreak> no max french is at #ubuntu-fr
[04:16] <dmizer> lol
[04:16] <Healot> c'est moi? max
[04:16] <max> ok thanks
[04:16] <max> healot: quoi
[04:16] <babo> dmizer: also, my dad is on skype, so I guess that kinda closes the loop ...
[04:16] <nm_> hola
[04:17] <ompaul> !es
[04:17] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[04:17] <Healot> do you still have museum-grade hardware?
[04:17] <nm_> eres espaol porque yo si
[04:17] <dmizer> babo: yes ... skype is cool most of the time.
[04:17] <jhv> i cant find any ap's anymore, thoug i did 15 mins ago
[04:17] <babo> dmizer:it has video now ... so that they can spy on you probably ...
[04:17] <Seantater> linux_galore: thanks!
[04:17] <jhv> and i know the ap's is working
[04:18] <nm_> pues abla en espaol
[04:18] <dmizer> babo: lmao ... if my ecam would work in linux ...
[04:18] <gnomefreak> nm_: #ubuntu-es

[04:19] <ompaul> nm_, ^^^
[04:19] <eyedol> got to thanks for all the help
[04:19] <babo> dmizer: honestly, I just walked over to my girlfriends windoze computer an hour ago ... pressed 'install skype' and it just worked ... I wonder sometimes ...
[04:19] <jhv> when im typing iwlist scanning i cant find any networks
[04:19] <jhv> i cant find any ap's anymore, thoug i did 15 mins ago
[04:19] <ompaul> babo, skype is badly build for linux
[04:19] <kcbanner> i just compiled the latest vanilla kernel...everything works fine but I noticed some slight mouse lag when opening windows that I did not have with the 2.2.15 kernel
[04:19] <jhv> and i know the ap's is working
[04:19] <dmizer> babo: i'm telling you ... qemu with a windows virtual machine.
[04:19] <gnomefreak> jhv: what are you looking for?
[04:20] <ompaul> babo, go to #easyubuntu and get their software it will install, after that all you have to do is configure sound
[04:20] <jhv> im looking for a wireless network
[04:20] <babo> dmizer: hmm ... something by vmware ?
[04:20] <mwe> kcbanner: have you compiled the kernel with preemption?
[04:20] <dmizer> babo: no.
[04:20] <babo> ompaul: I'm on 64bit
[04:20] <dmizer> no charge.
[04:20] <kcbanner> mwe, I believe I have..I used my old config
[04:20] <babo> dmizer: ?
[04:20] <dmizer> babo: want a link?
[04:20] <ompaul> babo, try setting up a chroot location for it

[04:21] <jhv> gnomefreak, im looking for a wireless network. it worked some minutes ago, but then i tried connecting to another network, that did not work, so when i the scanned for nets again, i did not find any
[04:21] <babo> ompaul: done that ... still has issues ... too numerous to mention ...
[04:21] <cil3urn> I have a question similar, what is a good wmv plugin for firefox
[04:21] <babo> dmizer: who is the virtual machine made by ?
[04:21] <bartmaniac> what does the following mean : ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
[04:21] <bartmaniac> Creating link /root/.kde/socket-localhost.
[04:21] <bartmaniac> can't create mcop directory
[04:22] <gnomefreak> jhv: sorry i dont do wireless
[04:22] <dmizer> babo: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=154265
[04:22] <ompaul> bartmaniac, ask in #kubuntu
[04:22] <dmizer> second script is for amd64
[04:22] <jhv> gnomefreak, kk
[04:22] <cil3urn> I installed gxine and it no longer gives me an error it just doesnt load anything at all
[04:22] <mwe> bartmaniac: what are you trying to do?
[04:22] <babo> dmizer: damn, I forgot that I'm on the terminal ...
[04:22] <babo> dmizer: ok thanks anyway ... :-)
[04:22] <dmizer>  babo: now it's not so cool huh?
[04:23] <cil3urn> view wmv's
[04:23] <dmizer> lol
[04:23] <cil3urn> or any internet video really
[04:23] <Healot> cil3urn: a good reset will be "rm -rc ~/.gxine"
[04:23] <dmizer> babo ... search the forms for install qemu 0.8.0
[04:23] <Healot> cil3urn: sorry "rm -rf ~/.gxine"
[04:24] <cil3urn> yeah i figured, and then what I just should try reinstalling it?
[04:24] <Healot> cil3urn: you still have the configs...
[04:24] <nm_> hola que haces
[04:24] <dmizer> babo: qemu is made by some free source group in france.
[04:24] <MartinMagnusson> Hi, I would like to start xpenguins remotely (via SSH) so that it runs on my display at home. How is this done?
[04:24] <dmizer> babo: it can run just about any os.
[04:24] <gnomefreak> nm_: for spanish join #ubuntu-es
[04:24] <cil3urn> well i did an apt-get on it and that was like a week ago
[04:24] <bartmaniac> mwe: i 'm trying to get winecfg running. first it seems dat nothing is going to happen, but then suddenly Wine confuguration appears. I got this messages the moment I clicked on the tab 'Audio'
[04:24] <jhv> how can i change the port the wlan card is scanning on
[04:25] <babo> dmizer: quem is a virtual machine ?
[04:25] <dmizer> yes.
[04:25] <dmizer> qemu
[04:25] <mwe> bartmaniac: you shouldn't run it with sudo
[04:25] <babo> s/qemu/qmeu/
[04:25] <babo> dmizer: ok cool ...
[04:25] <mwe> bartmaniac: I suppose you are since it complains about /root stuff
[04:25] <dmizer> babo: you'll want to use the script for that link ...
[04:25] <babo> dmizer: I thought it was a voip app ...
[04:25] <cil3urn> should I try manually downloading and compiling the source myself?
[04:25] <MartinMagnusson> Specifically, how can I see which display a certain user is using?
[04:25] <Healot> MartinMagnusson: what run remotely, runs on the remote computer
[04:26] <dmizer> babo: now i wouldn't send you that stuff would i?
[04:26] <nm_> hola como te llamas
[04:26] <babo> dmizer: I followed the link and it just gave me an index page ... ?
[04:26] <dmizer> babo: but in the vm, you can run an os where skype will work.
[04:26] <bartmaniac> mwe: I 'm running wine 0.9.13 (the ubuntu dapper binary version
[04:26] <dmizer> shoot.
[04:26] <mwe> !tell nm_ about es
[04:27] <nm_> mi name is dis noelia wat to na me
[04:27] <babo> dmizer: it's ok, I'll figure it out for myself ...
[04:27] <dmizer> babo: do you have an account at ubuntu forms?
[04:27] <MartinMagnusson> Running xpenguins in my SSH terminal gives me "X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown)." So I suppose I need to specify which display it should use.
[04:27] <babo> dmizer: oh yes, I forgot, my cookies got wiped out when I dev/null'd my /home folder ... :-(
[04:27] <mwe> bartmaniac: so? you should still run it as user, not with sudo
[04:27] <max> healot: yo ca va
[04:28] <pulver> hey! anyone have a working link to the gnomish svg icon theme package?
[04:28] <dmizer> babo: doh!
[04:28] <Healot> ssh, MartinMagnusson? to remote to a X server, you need some X client, like vnc
[04:28] <dmizer> well, i'm out.  later.
[04:29] <mwe> Healot: what about ssh -X?
[04:29] <kcbanner> mwe, my kernel is preemtable
[04:29] <blaze_> anyone familliar with anjuta and c++ ?
[04:29] <kcbanner> mwe, the lag has gone, maybe it was just near boot or something
[04:29] <Healot> mwe: i guess he just used
[04:29] <blaze_> familiar *
[04:29] <Healot> "ssh" but not ssh -X
[04:29] <babo> ok, well thanks dmizer and all the best :-)
[04:29] <gnomefreak> blaze_: what about it
[04:29] <nm_> hola
[04:29] <mwe> kcbanner: well good then
[04:29] <MartinMagnusson> OK. So it's not possible to start an X program on a remote machine and have the graphics show up on a remote display then?
[04:30] <KeithWeisshar> i have a pentium d with em64t, should i order the 32-bit or 64-bit version of ubntu from shipit?
[04:30] <blaze_> why do i get "0" when i type  " cout << clock() << endl;"
[04:30] <blaze_> and use <ctime>
[04:30] <mwe> nm_: We told you speak english or join #ubuntu-es
[04:30] <blaze_> i can't figure it out
[04:30] <Healot> MartinMagnusson, you can do it with ssh, but you must type "ssh -X" instead of just "ssh"
[04:30] <gnomefreak> blaze_: thats a programming question please ask that in offtopic
[04:30] <kcbanner> mwe, yeah
[04:30] <nm_> hola que como estas tio yo estoy bien pero no mucho poqe esyoy mala
[04:30] <bwbettin> Are there any websites or documentation that compare Debian vs. Ubuntu?
[04:30] <Healot> KeithWeisshar, both would be better
[04:31] <blaze_> ok, sry :) gnomefreak
[04:31] <the_mug> does anyone have any idea how to change network profiles from the command line??
[04:32] <KeithWeisshar> the shipit account only gives a choice of 1 pc edition or 1 64-bit pc edition, not both
[04:33] <Healot> order more... it is free! KeithWeisshar
[04:33] <KeithWeisshar> there is a warning that it will take 6 weeks
[04:33] <mwe> KeithWeisshar: I think the 64bit version still has some quirks
[04:33] <cil3urn> I removed and reinstalled gxine and now it looks like it begins to load the video from www.break.com and then it just goes blank
[04:33] <CoffeeBuzz> hey folks. I have an AMD sempron, what advice would you give on whether to go amd64 or stick with i386?
[04:33] <Healot> KeithWeisshar, test both 32 and 64bit of ubuntu if you have a x86_64 CPU...
[04:34] <KeithWeisshar> is the 64-bit version faster
[04:34] <visik7> not so much
[04:34] <KeithWeisshar> what's the purpose of the 64-bit version
[04:34] <Healot> CoffeeBuzz: a Palermo Sempron, or the older 32bit Sempron?
[04:34] <Healot> KeithWeisshar: it can use more than 4GB of memory?
[04:34] <Healot> and lot more memory extensive purposes :-
[04:35] <CoffeeBuzz> Healot, hrm. family: 15 model 44 haha .. i'm not exactly sure. i'll check
[04:35] <Healot> CoffeeBuzz: cpuz would help you on that
[04:35] <KeithWeisshar> i have 2gb of ram
[04:35] <KeithWeisshar> the intel 945g motherboard has a 4gb limit
[04:35] <cil3urn> KeithWeisshar, your OS will run faster if you have the 64bit with that proc
[04:36] <osotogari> When i go to System >>Admin >> Shared Folders i get an error message saying that "The configuration could not be loaded, there was an error running the backend  script" Does anyone know how i can fix this?
[04:36] <mwe> KeithWeisshar: well to exploit the 64bit cpu code natively. It will be faster if the program is optimized for 64bit
[04:36] <Healot> if it says x86_64 somewhere in the cpuz windows, you can actually use both version of ubuntu, CoffeeBuzz
[04:36] <mwe> KeithWeisshar: having a 64bit cpu running in 32bit mode is kinda of a waste
[04:36] <KeithWeisshar> i have a pentium d 930 with 3ghz speed
[04:37] <cil3urn> KeithWeisshar, Yeah Ill trade you my XP 3200+ for that if you want haha
[04:37] <Healot> KeithWeisshar: if you encounter too many problem with 64bit ubuntu, i suggest you stick to 32bitr :)
[04:37] <Healot> cil3urn: I wont' do that
[04:37] <KeithWeisshar> does the 64-bit version have bugs
[04:37] <Healot> 32bit has bugs to KeithWeisshar :)
[04:38] <cil3urn> Healot, I removed and reinstalled gxine and now it looks like it is beginning to load video and goes blank
[04:38] <Healot> what type of video are you trying to play?
[04:38] <cil3urn> wmv
[04:38] <KeithWeisshar> will the 64-bit version compile faster than the 32-bit version
[04:39] <Healot> KeithWeisshar: I guess, never do the benchmark yet
[04:39] <bargain> hahah, no way
[04:39] <Healot> cil3urn, try other type of video first, avi or mpeg for example
[04:39] <cil3urn> ok
[04:39] <cil3urn> brb
[04:40] <bargain> 64-bit = needs high bandwidth
[04:40] <Healot> because some Windows MEdia files require special tailored codecs
[04:40] <kcbanner> Anyone wanna help me with madwifi setup on a laptop?
[04:40] <Healot> some are generic MPEG-4... but most of them proprietary  MPEG-4
[04:40] <Jaggz-> is it common to ask, "how do I know my ubuntu disto"?
[04:40] <kcbanner> I have got the modules loaded but no ath0 or anything appears

[04:41] <hadzhimurad> Assalamu aleykum
[04:41] <hadzhimurad> hola amigo
[04:41] <fblade> i need a good mulityplayer game for ubuntu anyideas?
[04:41] <Jaggz-> and my second question, how do I know what debian distros packages are compatible?
[04:41] <Jaggz-> my xine doesn't support some mpeg layer 2/3 codecs and it would really help if it did
[04:41] <Jaggz-> aleikumu salaam, himurad!
[04:42] <hadzhimurad> Jaggz- where are yo from?
[04:42] <Healot> Jaggz-, xine from repos? or self-build, or did you downloaded the Debian's package?
[04:42] <osotogari> Jaggz: cat /etc/issue will show you your version of Ubuntu
[04:43] <crimsun> osotogari: it's better to suggest ``lsb_release -r''
[04:43] <osotogari> oh ok, thanks for the correction crimsun. I'm still learning :(
[04:44] <Healot> osotogari, it is better, but your way is still correct
[04:44] <crimsun> osotogari: no, yours is fine, but lsb_release is the preferred way :-)
[04:44] <Jaggz-> hadz, los angeles?  I know a little bit more arabic than that, but not really much more :)
[04:44] <Healot> crimsun: like the microsoft way?
[04:44] <Jaggz-> Healot, I'm using ubuntu's packaged xine
[04:44] <Healot> Jaggz-, then you should not have problem playing MPEG2/3 audio
[04:44] <vmadmin> hi
[04:44] <osotogari> Cool :)
[04:45] <Jaggz-> I can say "besmellahe rahmaane rahim"
[04:45] <crimsun> Jaggz-: breezy or dapper?
[04:45] <Stormx2> How do I add a command to run on boot/startup without using GNOME's "sessions" dialog?
[04:45] <Jaggz-> how do I know my ubuntu version?  it's from a year ago.
[04:45] <Healot> Jaggz-: that's the worse romanization of arabic words that I've ever seen
[04:45] <yo> ola
[04:45] <Stormx2> hi
[04:45] <Jaggz-> storm, /etc/init.d and /etc/rc*.d stuff... you might want to read up on them.
[04:46] <crimsun> Jaggz-: lsb_release -r
[04:46] <gnomefreak> !version
[04:46] <ubotu> version is <reply> To find out what ubuntu version you have type 'lsb_release -a' in a terminal.
[04:46] <gnomefreak> oops
[04:46] <Jaggz-> healot, "besmellaahe rahmaane rahim" is fine.
[04:46] <crimsun> Jaggz-: I'm fairly certain you're not running into the issue I think
[04:46] <Healot> nay
[04:46] <Jaggz-> double a is sometimes used for the alef[-madde]  sound.
[04:46] <crimsun> ubotu: version =~ s/'/''/
[04:46] <ubotu> crimsun: i didn't have anything called 'version'
[04:46] <Jaggz-> 5.04 ?
[04:47] <cil3urn> you know what its been using mplayer to attempt to play my videos. I got .AVI files working and I could even get WMV if I went through google video to find them
[04:47] <Healot> it's "bismillahi rahman nirrahim"
[04:47] <Healot> nvm...
[04:48] <Healot> that's why romanization of many asian languages suck
[04:48] <shriphani> well folks i am back with another question
[04:49] <shriphani> gnome doesnt respond
[04:49] <Jaggz-> in some locations, especially most arab ones, the people pronounce the vowel sound (if written at all it looks like a / under the letter) .. they pronounce it similar to an i.  this is a gradient, however, and in other cultures (like that from which my wife comes) it's called "ezaafe" and is pronounced like an e (as in "dead")
[04:49] <gnomefreak> !offtopic
[04:49] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[04:49] <Jaggz-> and there's no "n" on the beginning of "rahim"  :)
[04:50] <shriphani> when i try to run packages like gparted and network-admin it asks for my password and when i type it in all it does is shut up
[04:50] <shriphani> no response @ all
[04:50] <Jaggz-> gnome, does that read, "'not' offtopic"?  :)
[04:50] <vmadmin> Can somehwlp me with portforwarding please my router can only forward to a single ip address , i have postfix that forwards to a mail client on my lan but with a diffrent IP address  in my router .
[04:50] <Jaggz-> okay.. n/m this.  back to getting xine to play these audio tracks.
[04:50] <shriphani> so synaptic and what not is completely closed to me
[04:50] <Healot> nir indicates a shaddah, Jaggz-
[04:50] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: for offtopic talk go to #ubuntu-offtopic

[04:51] <Pip> shriphani, Hi
[04:51] <shriphani> hello
[04:51] <shriphani> can you please help me
[04:51] <Healot> shriphani: how does your GNOME responded?
[04:51] <cil3urn> Are there any HUGE advantages to running Daper rather than Breezy
[04:51] <shriphani> well it doesnt repond to such things
[04:52] <Healot> cil3urn: wait until, the stable release
[04:52] <Healot> then we will see
[04:52] <Stormx2> Jaggz-: Still there?
[04:52] <Jaggz-> yeah
[04:52] <shriphani> Healot, what i did was try to run network admin etc. it asks me for my password
[04:52] <cil3urn> Healot, that would probably be the best idea! lol
[04:52] <Jaggz-> did I say, lsb_release says 5.04 ..
[04:52] <Stormx2> I added a bash script to /etc/init.d/
[04:52] <max> feNNec: ta tu MSN
[04:52] <Stormx2> Do I need to do anything else?
[04:52] <shriphani> when i enter my pasword it goes and does nothing
[04:52] <shriphani> can you render me any help
[04:53] <|H-raf|> comment faire la mise a jour de aMSN ? vers la 0.95 ?
[04:53] <gnomefreak> shriphani: thats normally a sign of not having right password
[04:53] <Jaggz-> sym link to it from the proper runlevel /etc/rc#.d/ directory..
[04:53] <shriphani> that is the right password
[04:53] <Jaggz-> likely rc2 or rc3
[04:53] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo apt-get update   (tell me if that works
[04:53] <shriphani> ok
[04:53] <shriphani> it does
[04:53] <shriphani> done it loads of times
[04:54] <gnomefreak> |H-raf|: and max english in this channel only
[04:54] <cil3urn> shriphani, I aggree. Try running the program (just as a test) with the sudo command and another user name
[04:54] <shriphani> there is no other user name
[04:54] <cil3urn> shriphani, what about root
[04:54] <shriphani> ok
[04:54] <shriphani> let me try
[04:54] <gnomefreak> shriphani: what happens when you try running gksudo synaptic
[04:54] <Stormx2> Jaggz-: Was that directed at me?
[04:54] <Jaggz-> I'm trying to install the w3codecs package but can't find it.. then I added the marillat repository but it's erroring.
[04:55] <shriphani> it asks me for my password which i type in and then it plainly shuts up
[04:55] <Jaggz-> storm, yeah.
[04:55] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: dont add it use the wget command
[04:55] <Stormx2> !w32codecs
[04:55] <gnomefreak> !+w32codecs
[04:55] <ubotu> w32codecs is, like, a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install. To use w32codecs on a 64-bit system, see http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=54399
[04:55] <Jaggz-> k.. then I'll try to find the ftp site :)
[04:55] <cil3urn> shriphani, hmmm. This is the network-admin?
[04:55] <shriphani> huh
[04:55] <Stormx2> ill just try rebooting :
[04:55] <cil3urn> shriphani, the program your trying to run
[04:56] <Stormx2> see if that works
[04:56] <shriphani> well all gksudo associated programs dont work
[04:56] <scifi> hi guys, anyone know a channel on this server where i can ask about audio codecs for ubuntu/linux ?
[04:56] <gnomefreak> shriphani: but sudo works
[04:56] <shriphani> that includes synaptic, gparted, network-admin etc.
[04:56] <shriphani> yes it does
[04:56] <shriphani> sudo works
[04:57] <scifi> this what i want to ask is too specialist for here
[04:57] <cil3urn> but it hangs his programs
[04:57] <cil3urn> right?
[04:57] <shriphani> it does not hang anything
[04:57] <shriphani> it just doesnt run
[04:57] <Jaggz-> so.. hoary or not hoary?  how do I know thee?
[04:57] <shriphani> the desired program doesnt run
[04:57] <shriphani> quite frustruating
[04:57] <gnomefreak> shriphani: ps aux   << type that and tell me if any of the apps youve tried opening in gui are running?
[04:57] <scifi> i doubt anyone knows a player that supports .oma (sony) files ?
[04:57] <Jaggz-> system -> about works :)
[04:58] <Jaggz-> I am using a hoary hedgehog!
[04:58] <shriphani> no
[04:58] <shriphani> doesnt work
[04:58] <gnomefreak> hmmmmm
[04:58] <scifi> didnt think so, but anyone know a channel that might be able to help me ?
[04:58] <Stormx2> Right, time for a reboot ;-)
[04:59] <gnomefreak> it sounds like your gksudo permissions are scrambled  did you enable root password shriphani ?
[04:59] <shriphani> yes
[04:59] <gnomefreak> thats why
[05:00] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo apt-get update wont work either btw
[05:00] <shriphani> it works
[05:00] <gnomefreak> shriphani: no su <enter> apt-get update works
[05:00] <shriphani> i installed skype using sudo apt-get update install skype
[05:00] <gnomefreak> sudo apt-get update wont work
[05:00] <pramirez> ola
[05:00] <shriphani> it is working when i log in as root
[05:01] <shriphani> ok
[05:01] <gnomefreak> shriphani: but not when your not logged in as root
[05:01] <cil3urn> When that would happen to me I usually just reboot and it would work. You probably have tried this though
[05:01] <shriphani> let me try that
[05:01] <kcbanner> Anyone have problems with the update of Scrollkeeper, its giving me an error
[05:01] <rabwa> hi
[05:01] <shriphani> no it doesnt work when i am not root
[05:01] <cil3urn> try something simple like changing your password to something your sure of
[05:01] <gnomefreak> shriphani: thi sis one of many reasons ubuntu disables su
[05:01] <shriphani> oh
[05:01] <gnomefreak> shriphani: i know it wont
[05:02] <shriphani> any chances that you can make a correction
[05:02] <variant> shriphani: sudo apt-get install skype
[05:02] <gnomefreak> shriphani: you can try disabling it and adding yourself back to sudoers list here read this see if it helps
[05:02] <gnomefreak> !root
[05:02] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[05:02] <shriphani> ok
[05:02] <gnomefreak> variant: he cant
[05:02] <variant> gnomefreak: oh
[05:02] <shriphani> do i read what ubotu sent me ?
[05:03] <gnomefreak> shriphani: yes
[05:03] <variant> gnomefreak: i thought the issue was that he was runnign "sudo apt-get upgrade install skype" which of course wont work
[05:03] <shriphani> ok
[05:03] <vmadmin> Can somehwlp me with portforwarding please my router can only forward to a single ip address , i have postfix that forwards to a mail client on my lan but with a diffrent IP address  in my router .
[05:03] <gnomefreak> variant: he enabled su and now sudo doesnt work (in turn gksudo wont work)
[05:03] <Ng> vmadmin: your question doesn't entirely make sense - if you want to receive smtp from the outside, forward port 25 to the postfix server and it can then deliver internally on the lan
[05:04] <Jnoo> hi
[05:04] <Jnoo> anyone knows a simple firewall that does not consumes resources
[05:04] <vmadmin> Mg: ok just a sec
[05:04] <gnomefreak> Jnoo: whats wrong with iptables?
[05:04] <scifi> so noone has a sony network walkman/mp3 player  ?
[05:05] <Jnoo> gnomefreak nothing i just dont know the syntax.. i need something as a frontend
[05:05] <gnomefreak> Jnoo: firestarter
[05:05] <Jnoo> firestarter consumes resources
[05:05] <Jaggz-> this is "universe main restricted"... do I change it to "universe multiverse"?
[05:05] <gnomefreak> Jnoo: all gui front ends will
[05:06] <shriphani> well i have read it
[05:06] <Jnoo> but not like it
[05:06] <Jaggz-> the example on the webpage just says "universe" to "universe multiverse"... I'm not sure what to do with the "main restricted"
[05:06] <Jnoo> the cpu become scrazy
[05:06] <shriphani> almost everything is not recommended there
[05:06] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: leave main restricted alone
[05:06] <Jaggz-> and Ir eally have to get this done and out of the way so I can get this apparently very serious video editing done :(
[05:06] <Jnoo> also it has bugs
[05:06] <shriphani> gnomefreak, now what ?
[05:06] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: the lines that end in universe hit space bar add word multiverse after it
[05:07] <Jaggz-> oh.. leave that one alone entirely?  oops
[05:07] <Jnoo> ok
[05:07] <Jnoo> is there a way
[05:07] <Jaggz-> I left the "main restricted" in.. but now it says "universe main restricted multiverse" :)
[05:07] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: yes
[05:08] <Jaggz-> okay.. I'll take that back out
[05:08] <Jnoo> to use the iptables that firestarter makes.. without the need to launch it
[05:08] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: in the "main" repos you dont want universe nor multiverse
[05:08] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Jaggz- about universe
[05:08] <Jnoo> i will launch it only when i need to change the iptables
[05:08] <vmadmin> Mg: is not on a LAN but I thought it was the same thing. Here we go I have postfix on ubuntu and a guest os on vmware its like a diffrent physical os but its on the same machine (virtual) now my host ubuntu has ip 192.168.1.64 my guest has ip 168.192.1.10  so do i port forward to or from my guest ? and since the mail client will receive on on the pop port of 110
[05:09] <mwe> Jnoo: firestarter adds a boot script that loads the tables
[05:09] <shriphani> gnomefreak, please help me
[05:09] <max> salut
[05:09] <max> salutcava
[05:09] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo passwd -l root
[05:09] <gnomefreak> shriphani: you didnt read the page
[05:09] <indotel> HOLA
[05:09] <shriphani> what will that do
[05:09] <Ng> vmadmin: the vmware os should be able to talk to the host os without any port forwarding
[05:09] <gnomefreak> shriphani: lock root and bring you back to sudo
[05:09] <Jnoo> mwe: yes but when u shut it down i dont know what happens to the iptables
[05:10] <shriphani> will that mean that i should login to graphic application as root ???"?
[05:10] <gnomefreak> indotel: /join #ubuntu-es
[05:10] <indotel> YOU CAN SPANISH
[05:10] <Ng> vmadmin: you only need port forwarding from your router if you want machines on the internet to be able to talk to your internal machines
[05:10] <vmadmin> Mg: thats good news
[05:10] <gnomefreak> shriphani: no
[05:10] <shriphani> ok
[05:10] <Jaggz-> I can spanish
[05:10] <shriphani> so i just carry on with what the page tells me ?
[05:11] <Jaggz-> I'm sleepy and stressed and have to get this done.  I feel sensitive and feel like crying right now.  Heh.  Ever feel that way when you're tired?
[05:11] <Jaggz-> exhausted
[05:11] <gnomefreak> shriphani: run the command i gave you
[05:11] <murph2481_> my question is howcome only sometimes i have to go into the control center and deativate and reactate the card to get a connection?
[05:11] <Jaggz-> no puedes hablar en ingles?
[05:11] <vmadmin> Mg: the only peple on the internet will need to connect to my MTA postfix
[05:11] <gnomefreak> shriphani: after you run it make sure you have a $ at terminal prompt than type sudo apt-get update
[05:11] <Ng> vmadmin: then you just need to forward port 25 to the ubuntu machine
[05:11] <Jaggz-> damn.  Couldn't stat source package list http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net_dists_hoary-extras_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory
[05:11] <shriphani> ok
[05:12] <vmadmin> Mg:yep thats seems ok them
[05:12] <shriphani> done
[05:12] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: mirrormax backports havent worked in almost a year
[05:12] <shriphani> no results
[05:12] <Jaggz-> heh..
[05:12] <yancheng> any java programmer here, had experienced non-stop crashing of netbeans 5.0 in java 5????
[05:12] <Jaggz-> well that's what you had ubotu tell me :)
[05:12] <Jaggz-> no wait.. the webpage told me.
[05:12] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: and the backports are _not_ for universe and multiverse you still need to enable universe and multiverse
[05:12] <Mystery47> murph2481_:i had that same problem when i was using breezy very long time ago...
[05:13] <gnomefreak> shriphani: it didnt run?
[05:13] <shriphani> no
[05:13] <shriphani> it didnt seriously run
[05:13] <Mystery47> murph2481_: but later that just disappeared....(?)
[05:13] <shriphani> it immediately came back to shriphani@ubuntu
[05:13] <murph2481_> Mystery47 its only here and there....just wondering why I have a atheros wifi card
[05:13] <shriphani> shriphani@ubuntu$
[05:13] <gnomefreak> does it have a $ or a #
[05:13] <gnomefreak> ok
[05:13] <shriphani> $
[05:13] <vmadmin> Mg: ok do i understnd that 25 on my ubuntu machine is now open or at least thats what telnet tells me is that what you mean
[05:13] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo -i
[05:14] <shriphani> done
[05:14] <shriphani> nothing happened again
[05:14] <Jaggz-> gnome.  I'm not sure I understand.  I just need w32codecs.
[05:14] <gnomefreak> shriphani: su
[05:14] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: i told you use the wget command
[05:14] <shriphani> asks for my password
[05:14] <Mystery47> murph2481_: ok.....:)
[05:14] <shriphani> do i type it in ?
[05:14] <gnomefreak> shriphani: go ahead for now
[05:14] <Jnoo> !iptables
[05:14] <shriphani> logged in as root
[05:14] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Jaggz- about restricted
[05:15] <gnomefreak> shriphani: ok now go back to $
[05:15] <shriphani> i.e. type exit ?
[05:15] <shriphani> done
[05:16] <Stormx2> Damn this is so fustrating! Trying to get a java server to run on startup
[05:16] <Stormx2> it doesn't start and doesn't output any errors or text
[05:16] <pramirez> ola
[05:16] <pramirez> k tal

[05:17] <shriphani> gnomefreak, ?
[05:17] <Stormx2> scifi: What is it?
[05:17] <gnomefreak> shriphani: im thinking
[05:17] <zatlab> hey all, someone an idea why my ubuntu 5.10 won't reboot? it freezes after the message "System restarting"
[05:17] <gnomefreak> shriphani: that command should have worked ok lets try this
[05:17] <scifi> sonys mp3 player syncing/playback software
[05:18] <gnomefreak> shriphani: sudo passwd -l root
[05:18] <gnomefreak> shriphani: does it ask for password?
[05:18] <shriphani> no
[05:18] <gnomefreak> shriphani: just brought you back to $
[05:18] <Jaggz-> I still can't find a working repository for hoary
[05:18] <shriphani> yes
[05:18] <zatlab> someone an idea why my ubuntu 5.10 won't reboot? it freezes after the message "System restarting"
[05:18] <gnomefreak> shriphani: restart the terminal please
[05:18] <shriphani> so does that mean that the entire sudo package is missing ?
[05:18] <Stormx2> scifi: Syncing with what? Theres plenty of media players ^_^ as for downloads, Nicotine. burning, k3b, etc
[05:19] <shriphani> done
[05:19] <gnomefreak> !restricted
[05:19] <ubotu> somebody said restricted was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[05:19] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: hold on
[05:19] <wizzermetimers> hello all
[05:19] <Jaggz-> don't worry yet.. I found an ftp site
[05:19] <scifi> Stormx2: with sony network walkmans/mp3 players
[05:19] <Jaggz-> ftp://cipherfunk.org/pub/packages/ubuntu/pool/main/w/w32codecs/
[05:19] <shriphani> is that thing by ubotu for me ?
[05:19] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: type this in terminal wget -c ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20050412-0.4_i386.deb
[05:19] <gnomefreak> shriphani: no
[05:19] <Jaggz-> heh :)
[05:20] <scifi> Stormx2: it will need to handle sonys propriety format .oma files
[05:20] <shriphani> ok
[05:20] <gnomefreak> Jaggz-: -c stops it from asking about the certificate
[05:20] <Jaggz-> oh... cool option to remember
[05:20] <GT-DickBrewer`> hello, i've got a problem, is there anyone that can help me?
[05:20] <Stormx2> scifi: let me see
[05:20] <Jaggz-> are you sure?  what cert?
[05:20] <Jaggz->        -c
[05:20] <Jaggz->        --continue
[05:20] <Jaggz->            Continue getting a partially-downloaded file.  This is useful when you want to finish up a download started by a previous instance of Wget, or
[05:20] <gnomefreak> GT-DickBrewer`: you have yet to state your issue
[05:20] <gnomefreak> oh ok
[05:20] <Jaggz-> ack.. sorry .. the -c was supposed to be on the same line ... no wait..it wasn't .. *sigh*... I'm very sorry for the paste.
[05:21] <Stormx2> scifi: Wait, why do you have music in .oma?
[05:21] <gnomefreak> than after its downloading use sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[05:21] <GT-DickBrewer`> gnomefreak i've already have ubuntu for a while on my computer, but i didnt use it for a long time. now i want to log in but i forget the username and password. is there a way to get it back?
[05:21] <GT-DickBrewer`> or to change it atleast
[05:21] <wizzermetimers> I had gentoo installed a  hda and another hard drive hdb had two xfs paritions that i had sub dirs on. Anyway I deleted the HDA NOT HDB, and installed ubuntu, all worked fine, now im trying to mount my other partitions on the other drive and I'm getting mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /mnt/hard1/ busy, (they arn't mounted already) I've loaded up gnuparted and my paritions are there on HDB, but they have LBA flags set. what do
[05:21] <wizzermetimers> es that mean?
[05:21] <gnomefreak> !lostpassword
[05:21] <ubotu> lostpassword is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LostPassword
[05:21] <zatlab> !reboot
[05:21] <ubotu> zatlab: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:21] <zatlab> !acpi
[05:21] <ubotu> zatlab: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:21] <scifi> Stormx2: most people say it will never happen because of the DRM  issues, but some of my files do not have DRM, because latest version of sonicstage allows u to rip without DRM
[05:22] <Jaggz-> Holy video.  It works.
[05:22] <wizzermetimers> err, that was bad diatribes
[05:22] <Jaggz-> Eureka.
[05:22] <wizzermetimers> should i rephrase ?
[05:22] <zatlab> someone an idea why my ubuntu 5.10 won't reboot? it freezes after the message "System restarting"
[05:22] <Jaggz-> Thank you!  Who helped me again?
[05:22] <gnomefreak> zatlab: dont play witht he bot
[05:22] <GT-DickBrewer`> ok, thx
[05:22] <scifi> Stormx2: because i have ripped my cds in that format , quality is better than mp3 at lower bitrates, plus improves battery life for my mp3 player using that format
[05:22] <Stormx2> scifi: Why not use ogg?
[05:22] <Jaggz-> gnomefreak helped.. thanks :), for one...
[05:22] <zatlab> hey eddie_
[05:22] <osotogari> well that was a pretty easy network printer install! Sweet
[05:22] <Stormx2> Hmm ok
[05:22] <Stormx2> But
[05:22] <Stormx2> As far as I can tell from google
[05:23] <Stormx2> it won't be supported
[05:23] <wizzermetimers> It's 1.30 am here
[05:23] <scifi> Stormx2: the point is i ALREADY have some ripped in .oma
[05:23] <Jaggz-> well.. now I wasn't joking about this having to be done, so I do have to go, and I don't mean to be rude
[05:23] <eddie_> hello everybody
[05:23] <Stormx2> purely because thats just plain silly : if you must use a propietry format use mp3.
[05:23] <Jaggz-> thanks, gnome.. maybe I'll see you again sometime.
[05:23] <lagm> hollaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[05:23] <Jaggz-> goodbye folks :)
[05:23] <Jaggz-> hola.. y adios
[05:23] <juliangallego86> i need help for registering in freenode
[05:24] <lagm> helpppppppppppppp
[05:24] <scifi> Stormx2: i knew this, but thought someone might know of any new developments to support it
[05:24] <lagm> helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[05:24] <Ng> !tell lagm about ask
[05:24] <lagm> what the matter?
[05:24] <rggjan> Hi you all!
[05:24] <rggjan> Anyone knows what to do when "There are differences between boot sector and its backup. " on a Fat32 partition?
[05:24] <lagm> hi you all
[05:25] <Stormx2> scifi: Purely because I've never heard of it before, and the fact that its propreity, I doubt it will get support unless it gets more widely used
[05:25] <rggjan> Did a fsck.vfat...
[05:25] <juliangallego86> anyone can tell me how is the register in freenode
[05:25] <wizzermetimers> I had gentoo installed on a hardrive (hda) and I had another hard drive (hdb) which had two xfs paritions on them. Anyway I deleted the HDA NOT HDB, and installed ubuntu, all worked fine on that side of things. Now i'm trying to mount my two partitions on the second hard drive (HDB) but  I'm getting these errors "mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /mnt/hard1/ busy", (they arn't mounted already) I've loaded up gnuparted and my pa
[05:25] <wizzermetimers> ritions are there on HDB, but they have LBA flags set. what does that mean?
[05:25] <scifi> Stormx2: its been used for the past 8 years atleast for minidisc players
[05:25] <rggjan> Could I do another backup of the boot sector?
[05:26] <wizzermetimers> I've loaded up gnuparted and my paritions are there on HDB, but they have LBA flags set. what does that mean?
[05:26] <Stormx2> !info daemontools
[05:26] <ketsugi> I thought MDs use ATRAC
[05:26] <max> salut salut
[05:26] <wizzermetimers> they show as XFS too, so I don't see why I can't be mounting them
[05:26] <Ng> ketsugi: correct, but that's probably what OMA is, Sony's most recent mp3 players try to make you use ATRAC3 instead of mp3
[05:27] <milton> Hola, Alguien habla espaol, castellano o algo parecido??
[05:27] <Ng> !es
[05:27] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[05:27] <variant> wizzermetimers: that just means logical brlock addressing
[05:27] <ketsugi> oh
[05:27] <wizzermetimers> oh ok
[05:27] <ketsugi> well the last time I used an MD player was before the NetMDs came about
[05:27] <wizzermetimers> well then, can anyone give me any other suggestions for why it isn't mounting?
[05:27] <rggjan> Noone who knows something about FAT32?
[05:27] <wizzermetimers> I have XFS support in kernel, and xfstools etc
[05:27] <variant> wizzermetimers: what error is it?
[05:28] <wizzermetimers> "mount: /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /mnt/hard1/ busy"
[05:28] <milton> gracias pero soy nuevo en esto y no vi ese canal de ubuntu-es
[05:28] <rggjan> Or its bootsector?
[05:28] <wizzermetimers> it isn't mounted already
[05:28] <scifi> Ng: yes ATRAC/oma same thing, .oma is the file extension
[05:28] <wizzermetimers> and that directory isn't busy
[05:28] <variant> wizzermetimers: umount /dev/hdb1&& mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hard1
[05:28] <shriphani> gnomefreak, are you there ?
[05:29] <Ng> wizzermetimers: check "sudo tail -100 /var/log/syslog" for any related errors
[05:29] <scifi> also ATRAC is the only format i know that supports continous playback of mixes without pauses in between (unless flac/ogg does)
[05:29] <rendo> Why is it that when I try and install ThunderBird 1.5, it doesn't work and gives some stupid things about -maxdepth?
[05:29] <wizzermetimers> umount: /dev/hdb1: not mounted
[05:29] <gnomefreak> shriphani: im not sure how to add you back to sudoers and get rid of su. Ng  maybe you know?
[05:29] <wizzermetimers> ok
[05:29] <mephis1987> http://sam.zoy.org/wtfpl/COPYING :))
[05:29] <variant> wizzermetimers: type mount on its own
[05:29] <shriphani> ok
[05:30] <Ng> gnomefreak: "adduser someusername admin" as root, so it may need a reboot into recovery mode if there is no root user or user with sudo access available
[05:30] <Dkt1> How do I save something in my /etc folder?
[05:30] <rggjan> Can noone help me ... ?
[05:30] <wizzermetimers> Mg: nothing of any relivence
[05:30] <wizzermetimers> variant, it doesnt show in mount
[05:30] <gnomefreak> shriphani: use that command
[05:30] <variant> wizzermetimers: not even /mnt/hard1 ?
[05:30] <Stormx2> how do I temp. get root?
[05:30] <cil3urn> rggjan, whats up?
[05:30] <variant> wizzermetimers: are you root?
[05:30] <cil3urn> what was your question
[05:30] <wizzermetimers> i'm using sudo
[05:31] <shriphani> ok
[05:31] <variant> wizzermetimers: become root with sudo and then try
[05:31] <variant> just a hunch
[05:31] <shriphani> in place of someusername can i type anything
[05:31] <variant> Stormx2: sudo su -
[05:31] <gnomefreak> shriphani: the user name you want to have sudo rights
[05:31] <shriphani> ok
[05:31] <rggjan>  "There are differences between boot sector and its backup. " on a Fat32 partition, when I'm doing a dosfsck on that partition?
[05:31] <wizzermetimers> variant, same error
[05:32] <variant> wizzermetimers: strange..

[05:32] <wizzermetimers> variant,  ok thanks
[05:32] <variant> later
[05:32] <wizzermetimers> one thing I should point out though fdisk shows the partitons as w95 Ext'd
[05:33] <wizzermetimers> not XFS
[05:33] <shriphani> it says the group admin does not exist
[05:33] <wizzermetimers> but gnuparted shows them as XFS
[05:33] <rggjan> what should I do now?
[05:33] <ferronica> gnomefreak: hi buddy
[05:33] <rggjan> Could I make another backup of the bootsector, then try to overwrite the original boot sector?
[05:33] <usuario> ddddddd
[05:33] <usuario> lklk
[05:33] <gnomefreak> shriphani: im sorry im not real sure
[05:33] <gnomefreak> .opme
[05:33] <shriphani> ok
[05:33] <Dkt1> Is it possible to create, write, and save textdocuments in terminal? In that case, how?
[05:33] <ferronica> gnomefreak: Do u know any channel where i can talk about which speakers to buy creative Or Altec Lansing????
[05:34] <shriphani> so can no one help me
[05:34] <gnomefreak> ferronica: no
[05:34] <cil3urn> rggjan, I would say yes if your trying to backup your bootsector
[05:34] <ferronica> gnomefreak: OH :0
[05:34] <ferronica> gnomefreak: Ok u tell me which one is good
[05:34] <rggjan> No, I'm trying to ripair the filesystem...
[05:34] <cil3urn> rggjan, are you afraid to install grub?
[05:34] <ferronica> gnomefreak: In 2.0
[05:35] <nathansnook> Moving to Ubuntu is this going to be a hard trans
[05:35] <rggjan> But I don't know if the backup or the original boot sector is the correct one
[05:35] <cil3urn> rggjan, did you ever backup the bootsector?
[05:35] <rggjan> no, not myself
[05:35] <wizzermetimers> does anyone know if windows support xfs?
[05:35] <wizzermetimers> I might try sticking it in a win comp and seeing if it can access the partitions
[05:35] <rggjan> but I had recently some problems with the harddrive
[05:36] <andersbr> Does anyone know why apt-get wants to remove Eclipse when I ask it to remove mozilla?
[05:36] <rggjan> suddendly it worked again, but that's what dosfsck shows
[05:36] <shriphani> so is no one able to help me
[05:36] <shriphani> can anyone tell me what the problem is /
[05:36] <cil3urn> rggjan, I would say copy original to backup and than. Use the backup to restore it
[05:37] <Mystery47> nathansnook: no its not hard. only thing is you must think otherwise like in windows....:9
[05:37] <shriphani> is an entire sudo package missing
[05:37] <rggjan> But what if the original is corrupt? then the backup is lost!
[05:37] <ferronica> gnomefreak: ?????????????????????
[05:38] <cil3urn> yeah but did you say it mysteriously started working?
[05:38] <rggjan> There's a "Differences: (offset:original/backup) 65:01/00"
[05:38] <ferronica> #windows
[05:38] <gnomefreak> ferronica: i dont know anything about speakers why not ask the channel and get a better answer
[05:38] <cil3urn> rggjan, Im not to sure about that....
[05:39] <shriphani> gnomefreak, can you suggest any other channel where i can get help
[05:39] <ferronica> gnomefreak: i think today ur MOOD OFF
[05:39] <rggjan> Do you have an idea where else I could get help?

[05:41] <gnomefreak> shriphani: you need to get rid of root and go back to sudoer
[05:42] <cil3urn> rggjan, do you speak german by anychance?
[05:42] <cil3urn> lol
[05:42] <cil3urn> hold on im still looking
[05:43] <rggjan> german is my first language :-)
[05:43] <shriphani> gnomefreak, do you think it is a problem with my installation ?
[05:43] <trappist> if I'm funning a java app that requires a particular java lib, where do I put that lib (.jar) so I don't get a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError?
[05:44] <gnomefreak> shriphani: no your problem is caused by su
[05:44] <shriphani> ok
[05:44] <shriphani> but the command you gave me was of no help too
[05:45] <shriphani> thereby i couldnt disable sudo

[05:45] <andersbr> trappist: You should be able to add any path to your $CLASSPATH variable, and it will pick up the new jar.

[05:47] <youngcoder> what is the syntax for the locate command if i only know part of the filename?
[05:47] <shriphani> well gnomefreak , arent you familiar with this problem ?
[05:47] <shriphani> tab key
[05:47] <cil3urn> rggjan, I cannot find any specific channels but maybe this will help you; http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.php?t=3395&view=next&sid=0b464e7dfa8aa69eb536b8100271e74d
[05:47] <trappist> youngcoder: locate partoffilename
[05:47] <cil3urn> it is a link to a forum on the util
[05:47] <rggjan> Thanks a lot!
[05:48] <rggjan> Will try it
[05:48] <rsa_md5> when I try to install a driver in ubuntu 5.10, the setup programs asks for something like kernel source tree. What is this exactly?
[05:48] <cil3urn> rggjan, have you tried the man page
[05:48] <rggjan> mhm, but there's nothing about that
[05:48] <trappist> anto9us: that didn't work, but copying the jar to . worked
[05:49] <cil3urn> ok well these guys talk about repairing bad sectors which is part of what your trying to do
[05:49] <Ng> rsa_md5: if you search with apt-cache or synaptic you'll find a kernel-source package that matches your current kernel version - it probably wants that installed (which will go to /usr/src/)
[05:49] <rggjan> Well, it isn't exactly a bad sector, i think
[05:49] <anto9us> trappist, it seems andersbr has left the channel
[05:49] <shriphani> gnomefreak, can you refer a place i can go to for help ?
[05:50] <rggjan> isn't a bad sector unreadable due to a defect of the harddrive?
[05:50] <rggjan> And in my case it's only a difference of two sectors...
[05:50] <trappist> anto9us: oops :)
[05:50] <shriphani> dammit no one responds
[05:50] <gnomefreak> shriphani: yes right here ask the channel instead of me i see a few that i think can help you
[05:51] <scifi> do i install mplayer-386 or mplayer-custom ?
[05:51] <shriphani> please tell me who
[05:51] <mitooz> im trying to install rar and unrar-nonfree but i get this error :

[05:51] <ricardo> is there a better source list than the one ubuntu brings default? i try to do apt-get install gftp and not even that
[05:51] <gnomefreak> shriphani: when they are free they will help you
[05:51] <cil3urn> rggjan, yes but a util like this will move data off of it (or as much as possible) and put it on a good sector
[05:51] <gnomefreak> mitooz: dont paste in here
[05:51] <shriphani> oh
[05:52] <mitooz> gnomefreak: sorry
[05:52] <scifi> gnomefreak: best to install  mplayer-386 or mplayer-custom ?
[05:52] <shriphani> just tell me their nicks gnomefreak
[05:52] <cil3urn> rggjan, there seems to be nooo documentation to backing up or restoring with that specific util

Then when I restart the client network by /etc/init.d/networking restart, I meet the error of " Temporary failure in name resolution". It has troubled me for several days, could you please help to point me how to deal with it? any comments are appreciated. Tha

[05:55] <r0xoR> ... ricardo try using nautilus instead
[05:56] <ricardo> r0xoR, im just trying apt-get but it doesnt have programs
[05:56] <r0xoR> ricardo, gFTP sux0rs really bad :) even ncftp is better... in fact I don't really use FTP at all anymore... i just use netrw through vim
[05:56] <r0xoR> ricardo, oh huh, well then that might be your /etc/apt/sources.list file is empty or something
[05:56] <ricardo> r0xoR, are they some address i should add ?

[05:57] <ricardo> ok
[05:57] <gnomefreak> Marticus: ubuntu
[05:58] <r0xoR> ricardo, is this a fresh install? as in did you just install it within hours or days ago
[05:58] <ccc_> r0xoR: #ubuntu-zh is the chinese channel
[05:58] <Marticus> gnomefreak, lol thanks...
[05:58] <|H-raf|> izut whats the problem ?
[05:58] <r0xoR> ccc_, cool
[05:58] <ricardo> r0xoR, yes.
[05:58] <r0xoR> excelme2003, #ubuntu-zh
[05:58] <Frogzoo> |H-raf|: no pasting
[05:58] <r0xoR> ricardo, ok, well the sources.list should be fine
[05:58] <ricardo> im trying to get the source.list i used to have..
[05:58] <|H-raf|> ok sorry so whats the problem in sources.list ?
[05:58] <Frogzoo> !tell |H-raf| about pastebin
[05:59] <ricardo> no problem but i used to have more address i dont remember them :S
[05:59] <r0xoR> ricardo, used to have... so does that mean that you have (or something else has) changed the sources.list
[05:59] <Marticus> so basically, ubuntu versions do not coincide with a specific debian version
[05:59] <Marticus> is that correct?
[05:59] <r0xoR> !repositories
[05:59] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[05:59] <r0xoR> ricardo, well there's the default sources.list if you need it :)
[05:59] <Frogzoo> Marticus: they don't correlate at all
[05:59] <Marticus> thanks
[06:00] <ricardo> r0xoR, i had one that i found in the net that worked better than default
[06:00] <r0xoR> lol
[06:00] <r0xoR> "worked better"
[06:00] <r0xoR> ricardo, please don't say the one from easyubuntu
[06:00] <ricardo> no
[06:01] <ricardo> purple something was the name
[06:01] <ricardo> dont remmeber

[06:01] <Marticus> I've installed breezy before but I don't recall if I had advanced options which would enable a non-graphical install, thus also bypassing the installation of xorg
[06:01] <Marticus> can someone verify this for me?
[06:01] <r0xoR> ricardo: http://www.earth.li/projectpurple/?
[06:01] <r0xoR> ricardo, http://www.earth.li/projectpurple/ ? heheh sorry (syntax)
[06:01] <gnomefreak> Marticus: do i server install
[06:01] <scifi> just installed m-player, ran it and got a pop-up error saying "New_face failed. maybe the font path is wrong. please supply the text font file"
[06:01] <r0xoR> Marticus, expert mode
[06:01] <Marticus> oh good, thanks
[06:01] <r0xoR> Marticus, just type "expert" at the command prompt
[06:02] <r0xoR> Marticus, beware though
[06:02] <ricardo> no
[06:02] <r0xoR> Marticus, there are things that don't get done for you (most notably adding a user to the /etc/sudoers file and setting a root password. so be sure do to that yourself otherwise you'll be loxed of ur boxen
[06:02] <izut> |H-raf|: gksudo gedit /etc/sources.list
[06:02] <scifi> ne ideas guys ?
[06:03] <sangenfant> I'm having trouble with a distro upgrade and am unable to start x windows or any sound program, I erred out on the sudo install with a dpkg error, can anyone help resolve the errors I'm getting? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14272
[06:03] <eyesee>  hi, guys, I am meeting "Temporary failure in name resolution" when I execute '/etc/init.d/networking restart', what is the name resolution meaning?
[06:03] <|H-raf|> izut the same msg :s
[06:03] <Marticus> r0xoR: now that I think about it, I do recall having done an expert install at some point, and I remember needing to manually do a few things
[06:03] <Marticus> I just didn't remember if it let me not install X
[06:03] <Marticus> but server install seems to be what I needed to know
[06:03] <Marticus> thanks for that bit of advice
[06:04] <frfx> question about shipit: can i request 5 ubuntu cds and 1 kubuntu + 1 edubuntu?maybe it's a problem that i have 3 different request?one on https://shipit.edubuntu.org/ another on https://shipit.kubuntu.org/ and one on https://shipit.ubuntu.com/?
[06:04] <izut> |H-raf|: $ gksudo gedit /etc/sources.list (as your user, not root!)
[06:04] <Marticus> I will probably manually install xorg because it requires a lot of fine tunning to work with my laptop
[06:04] <gnomefreak> frfx: you can
[06:04] <Iam8up|lpy> can anyone tell me what the root password is on the live cd?
[06:04] <Frogzoo> eyesee: it means the dns server(s) mentioned in /etc/resolv.conf can't be reached
[06:04] <Marticus> yay for mobile systems...
[06:04] <frfx> gnomefreak: ok thanks
[06:04] <gnomefreak> Iam8up|lpy: there isnt one
[06:04] <Marticus> and their proprietary nature
[06:04] <Iam8up|lpy> gnomefreak - how do i su to root then?
[06:04] <|H-raf|> izut no the same msg :/
[06:05] <gnomefreak> Iam8up|lpy: you dont you use sudo
[06:05] <Frogzoo> Iam8up|lpy: sudo -i
[06:05] <Ng> !tell Iam8up|lpy about root
[06:05] <Marticus> so, should I consider dapper?
[06:05] <Frogzoo> Marticus: wait till june 1 at this stage
[06:05] <Marticus> for production use
[06:05] <gnomefreak> Marticus: in 2 weeks
[06:05] <Marticus> Frogzoo: very well, thank you
[06:05] <yuan> hi just a question
[06:05] <Marticus> thanks gnomefreak
[06:05] <gnomefreak> Marticus: yw
[06:06] <izut> |H-raf|: as root, check DISPLAY variable: # echo $DISPLAY
[06:06] <Marticus> I may idle here, but I rarely have an opportunity to actually participate, or at least read what is going on :)
[06:06] <yuan> u use  python  , import sys , and call sys,version function
[06:06] <Marticus> screen makes it easy to do that lol
[06:06] <gnomefreak> yuan: #python or #ubuntu-offtopic please
[06:06] <izut> |H-raf|: if it's defined, then as your user execute $ xhost +
[06:06] <Marticus> but I suppose in a strange sense, I am supporting the project with my "presence"
[06:06] <frfx> gnomefreak: do u have an idea when i will get the cds?because a lot of people will order cds..
[06:06] <yuan> gnomefreak :  o
[06:07] <sangenfant> Any ideas?
[06:07] <gnomefreak> frfx: 4-6 weeks from the time they are sent sometime in june they will be sent please read the faq on the shipit site
[06:07] <gnomefreak> later all

[06:08] <yuan> how can i know which version ubuntu i am use now ??
[06:08] <Frogzoo> yuan: lsb_release
[06:08] <steve-o> hi
[06:09] <izut> remember that will accept connection from any host to your X display, but now it should work.
[06:09] <izut> |H-raf|: why don't you use synaptic?
[06:09] <steve-o> i have problems installing it
[06:09] <Frogzoo> yuan: lsb_release -a
[06:09] <steve-o> i burned the iso two times
[06:09] <yuan> Frogzoo  :  thx
[06:09] <ferronica> hi guys
[06:09] <|H-raf|> izut h-raf@Bouzidi:~$ xhost +
[06:09] <|H-raf|> access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
[06:09] <sangenfant> wish I could use synaptic, it gave me issues when I tried the distro upgrade
[06:09] <steve-o> but when i put the disc into the drive. he searches for autoplay files but doesnst find any
[06:10] <jdmpike> nice processes rule
[06:10] <Frogzoo> |H-raf|: that's a _really_ bad idea
[06:10] <ferronica> Is there anyway to tranfer my whole ubuntu OS in another HDD
[06:10] <ferronica> In SATA
[06:10] <yuan> Frogzoo: but in python , sys.version does't return the same as lsb_release -a
[06:10] <izut> |H-raf|: try now. after you did what you want, xhost -
[06:10] <Almenfors> hum i must have a wierd version of gproftpd. now he wont even let me shut the service down.
[06:10] <raptros-v76> ferronica: probably not a good idea
[06:10] <steve-o> i tried to install it from windows is that is wrong
[06:10] <FliesLikeABrick> is us.archive.ubuntu.com responding incredibly slow/not at all for anyone else?
[06:11] <steve-o> can anybody jus answer
[06:11] <FliesLikeABrick> steve-o yes that is a bad idea
[06:11] <FliesLikeABrick> that will not work
[06:11] <|H-raf|> izut try what ?
[06:11] <soundray> steve-o: are you talking about an Ubuntu install CD?
[06:11] <Almenfors> anyone who could recomend a working easy ftp server. with gui (or support for using other admin tools) =)
[06:11] <steve-o> yes
[06:11] <izut> |H-raf|: sudo gedit /etc/sources.list
[06:11] <steve-o> i burned the iso
[06:11] <soundray> steve-o: you are meant to boot from it.
[06:11] <izut> |H-raf|: what the heck are you trying to do? update to user dapper repositories?
[06:12] <yuan> steve-o  :  u can put the cd in ur cd-rom and restart ur computer
[06:12] <steve-o> can i install it from windows?
[06:12] <soundray> steve-o: no.
[06:12] <steve-o> when i do so. it just starts windows
[06:12] <steve-o> so bios?
[06:12] <steve-o> mmh k
[06:12] <soundray> steve-o: you have to change your BIOS setup
[06:12] <izut> steve-o: configure your 'puter bios to boot from CD
[06:12] <Marticus> oh yeah, last question before I go to lunch... is the upgrade from breezy to dagger fairly straight forward
[06:12] <steve-o> k thx
[06:12] <Almenfors> steve-o, as i understand you have to boot up the install from ur cd
[06:12] <steve-o> bye
[06:12] <Marticus> I never had any difficulty upgrading debian versions

[06:14] <soundray> sangenfant: yeah, we had someone here who copied the iso to a CD, rather than creating a CD from the image...
[06:14] <Frogzoo> FliesLikeABrick: it's pretty out to lunch
[06:14] <Iam8up|lpy> i just mounted my NTFS drive and i would like to be able to see it in gnome...i can't chmod 555 hte mount because it's read only =/
[06:14] <Iam8up|lpy> i can see it in the console/terminal sudo'd as root, though
[06:14] <|H-raf|> pfffffffffffff izut root@Bouzidi:/home/h-raf# sudo gedit /etc/sources.list

[06:14] <Frogzoo> |H-raf|: enough with the pasting
[06:14] <Ng> !tell |H-raf| about paste
[06:14] <|H-raf|> ok sorry
[06:14] <izut> |H-raf|: why don't you try to use synaptic for that?
[06:14] <frank_> |H-raf|: if the prompt is #   you are already root. no need for sudo
[06:15] <Frogzoo> |H-raf|: people just ignore people who repeatedly paste - you've been told before
[06:15] <FliesLikeABrick> thanks Frogzoo
[06:15] <FliesLikeABrick> !paste
[06:15] <ubotu> Please don't flood the channel! For best results use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and tell people the URL
[06:15] <soundray> sangenfant: you can force the install to overwrite the file that is also in another package. This can be dangerous, but I reckon it will be okay in your situation.
[06:15] <Ng> Iam8up|lpy: have you created an entry for it in /etc/fstab? if so you can specify options like "user" if you want users (ie you) to be able to mount it, or if you want it mounting automatically you can usually specify uid/gid options with your user id/group id so it gets mounted as your user and you have access
[06:16] <Iam8up|lpy> Ng - no, just a mount (i'm using a livd cd
[06:16] <sangenfant> soundray: and that's the apt-get -f install, right?
[06:16] <soundray> sangenfant: so do 'sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/libofx2_1%3a0.8.0-3ubuntu8_i386.deb'
[06:16] <|H-raf|> izut http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14274
[06:16] <wims> does anybody know of a media player that will play .asx files in breezy ?=
[06:16] <Ng> Iam8up|lpy: ok, well unmount it, run "id" in a terminal to get your uid, then mount it again with "-o uid=YOURUIDHERE"
[06:16] <genjix> wims: kaffeine with asx support i think
[06:16] <Ng> Iam8up|lpy: I think that should do the trick
[06:16] <soundray> sangenfant: no, the -f in apt-get means fix-missing. It won't help for this type of problem (as you've noticed)
[06:16] <genjix> well gentoo does anyway
[06:17] <Iam8up|lpy> so mount -o uid=501 -t ntfs sdjflkdsjf lkjfdslskdf
[06:17] <Iam8up|lpy> correct?
[06:17] <izut> |H-raf|: I know what you are doing. I asked you about what you *want* to do editing that file.
[06:17] <genjix> anyone know why I have an empty loopback table when I do route -n? Its kind of alarming.
[06:17] <wims> genjix, do you know which repos kaffeine is in ? It's not KDE is it ?
[06:17] <genjix> wims: yes
[06:17] <|H-raf|> izut to add my new depot http://cereli.org/index.php?page=fichier/config/sources.list
[06:18] <soundray> wims: at least some asx files play with mplayer once you've installed w32codecs
[06:18] <Trackilizer> How does one use "apt-get" to remove any packages that were installed via "apt-get"??
[06:18] <questioner> the bar at the bottom of my screen after i clicked 'dont reload' on startup, is there a way i can get it back to the way it is by default?
[06:18] <soundray> Trackilizer: apt-get remove packagename (or apt-get --purge remove packagename if you want to be thorough)
[06:18] <izut> |H-raf|: I can't remember if nano is installed by default, as I'm not running Ubuntu at this moment, but you can try it... # nano /etc/sources.list
[06:18] <Trackilizer> I see.
[06:18] <izut> |H-raf|: it's very intuitive, and text based.
[06:18] <Frogzoo> Trackilizer: dpkg --purge
[06:18] <Trackilizer> Thanks.
[06:19] <genjix> no one knows anything about my problem?
[06:19] <izut> |H-raf|: I don't know what is causing the problem you have.
[06:19] <|H-raf|> izut i have nqno installed
[06:19] <genjix> anyone know why I have an empty loopback table when I do route -n? Its kind of alarming.
[06:19] <|H-raf|> izut i have nano installed
[06:19] <soundray> genjix: is anything not working?
[06:19] <MisterN> hi
[06:19] <izut> |H-raf|: so use it to edit your /etc/sources.list file. there's life outside X :)
[06:20] <questioner> anyone?
[06:21] <soundray> questioner: do you mean the bottom panel?
[06:21] <|H-raf|> izut after what i tape in consote to upgrade ?
[06:21] <genjix> soundray: nope
[06:21] <questioner> yes
[06:21] <izut> |H-raf|: apt-get update, then apt-get upgrade
[06:21] <soundray> genjix: then don't diagnose. Chances are you're only going to worry yourself and fix something that isn't broken.
[06:21] <izut> |H-raf|: I'm pretty sure that exists a lot of good documentation about that in Ubuntu wiki
[06:22] <sangenfant> soundray: seems the problem got worse, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14276, although nothing really got done.
[06:22] <soundray> questioner: right-click on the top panel and select Add Panel.
[06:22] <genjix> soundray: no, I have no networking. an empty routing table and eth0 down
[06:22] <soundray> sangenfant: no, not worse. Now rerun sudo apt-get -f install
[06:23] <xanavim> does anyone know a SID to MP3 or OGG converter?  or a way to record the audio streamed to ALSA?
[06:23] <genjix> I just want to set up my gateway, which is easy enough in gentoo but its not working in ubuntu for some odd reason
[06:23] <questioner> ty
[06:23] <bork> I'm trying to mount my usb drive, but nautilus/gnome is not automounting it for me anymore (it will if I reboot)
[06:23] <bork> lsusb does not list the drive
[06:23] <bork> is there some way I can kick the usb module?
[06:23] <sangenfant> I'll be a monkey's uncle.

[06:24] <Almenfors> does anyone have a good ftp server to recomend for a total newb =)
[06:24] <eyesee> Frogzoo: sorry :( I just installed ubutu6.06. and I am setting up a LAN: one server connected directly to internet using xDSL, and a client machine using the server's IP as the gateway, that is 192.168.39.1. I copied the resolv.conf from the server 192.168.39.1 to my client machine, so I think the nameserver listed is okay. You mean it is not workable?
[06:24] <soundray> genjix: have you tried System-Administration-Networking?
[06:24] <genjix> doesn't work either

[06:25] <walterius> newbie to irc chat: how do i join in the conversation?
[06:25] <Frogzoo> eyesee: see if you can ping the dns server - i think not
[06:25] <soundray> Almenfors: if you are a total newb, then don't install an ftp server, I'd say. Use scp to transfer files instead.
[06:25] <mwosh> just type walter
[06:25] <mwosh> lol
[06:25] <genjix> in fact, restarting networking [fail]  but start is [ok] 
[06:25] <walterius> walter

[06:28] <yuan> soundray : maybe  , i just wanna know how to change chanel
[06:29] <eyesee> Frogzoo: the server is connected to internet with xDSL, so the nameserver is not useful, is it?

[06:36] <sexyLady> mmmmmm
[06:36] <izut> sexyLady: ok, the long answer is mp3 is a restricted format. it's not enabled on Ubuntu by default, you have to install some packages to make it work.
[06:36] <Hajuu> how does one seperate multiple commands in one line with irssi?
[06:37] <Seantater> chmod o+rw /media/hda1
[06:37] <sexyLady> package??
[06:37] <Seantater> pineapple: here -->   chmod o+rw /media/hda1
[06:37] <pineapple> k
[06:37] <izut> sexyLady: packages are how applications are installed on Ubuntu.

[06:38] <TheBigToe> and also, talking of xchat, is there any way to make the chanlist go down the side of the window?
[06:38] <Seantater> pineapple: that command may totally kill an OS, but it won;t hurt data

[06:45] <GazzaK> Sjors, have you looked at k3b?
[06:45] <izut> more karma
[06:45] <mwosh> i use and like the .net studio the best there are so many plugins and conversions you could run any language on it..., but that may not be avaliable to you.  Are you looking for a free IDE?
[06:45] <GazzaK> karma is nice, thanks
[06:45] <Sjors> Thx
[06:45] <Seantater> pineapple: change it to this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14280
[06:46] <GazzaK> Sjors, not sure if it'll do what you need, but it is a damn good cdr/dvdr burnign tool
[06:46] <izut> sexyLady: ests a?

[06:46] <izut> it's funny trying to speak spanish.

[06:47] <sexyLady> ok
[06:47] <Sjors> It's possible to burn an DVD or VCD With it and thats good ^^..
[06:47] <jramsey> imported a word doc with embedded graphics as figured; open office is hanging now after i tried to page past one of the figures; any ideas??
[06:48] <Seantater> pineapple: a read-only one (much more safe - NTFS drivers are experimental) --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14282
[06:48] <jramsey> as figures
[06:48] <Seantater> pineapple: gtg
[06:48] <Seantater> pineapple: bye
[06:48] <pineapple> ok
[06:49] <sexyLady> ya coloque el comando
[06:49] <pineapple> thanks for the help
[06:49] <sexyLady> y saleron muchas letras
[06:49] <TheBigToe> how do I get read access to an ntfs drive?
[06:49] <TheBigToe> it says I don't have the right permissions
[06:49] <jramsey> TheBigToe, the drive is a windows drive?
[06:49] <TheBigToe> yeah
[06:49] <GazzaK> erm, am I getting this right, we are all suggesting a spanish place for sexyLady to go to, but she is still talking spanish here?
[06:50] <TheBigToe> hah
[06:50] <GazzaK> or is that just 'cos I have no idea what she is saying
[06:50] <jramsey> TheBigToe, well, e.g., in winxp right click the drive / sharing  then check the Allow network ujsers to change my files
[06:50] <GazzaK> it might be "thanks for giving me some wonderful links see you later"
[06:50] <jramsey> it'll take a bit while it runs thru its braindead file system changing permissions
[06:50] <TheBigToe> jramsey, the drive's on this PC?
[06:51] <TheBigToe> er, minus the >
[06:51] <TheBigToe> er, ?
[06:51] <TheBigToe> I can't type today
[06:51] <jramsey> TheBigToe, so it's not a drive controlled by windows ... just an ntfs drive mounted on linux?
[06:51] <mwosh> It seems like this is the only active chat IRC room i've been in for a while
[06:51] <Doat> when i try to blank a cd-rw with gnomebaker it fails with: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14281 what should i do?
[06:51] <TheBigToe> jramsey, yes
[06:51] <TheBigToe> well, I think it's mounted, I think it's hda1
[06:52] <semboy> i open up synaptic package manager  and than i search for nvidia Once the search is complete i see a list off stuff -what do i choose?
[06:52] <mwe> TheBigToe: it's not safe to write to ntfs from linux. to let all users have read accass put umask=0222 under mount options in /etc/fstab
[06:52] <TheBigToe> if I have a swap partition, a windows partition, and a linux partition, would the windows show up as /media/hda1 or/media/hda2?
[06:52] <semboy> i am trying to update or install a video card
[06:52] <beford> sexyLady, #ubuntu-es
[06:52] <TheBigToe> oh, thanks mwe
[06:53] <jramsey> TheBigToe, what are the opens in the disk line in /etc/fstab
[06:53] <TheBigToe> one second
[06:53] <jramsey> TheBigToe, mwe answered it
[06:53] <Samuli^> mwe, doesn't that take away read access?
[06:53] <alek> hi
[06:53] <mwe> Samuli^: no
[06:53] <Samuli^> umask works in opposite of chmod
[06:53] <mwosh> Anyone know any other good rooms on this server?
[06:53] <mwe> Samuli^: it's a mask
[06:53] <Samuli^> it takes away rights.
[06:53] <jstraw> I'm having an issue with a 5.10 install on a sata drive
[06:53] <jstraw> the install worked fine
[06:54] <TheBigToe> so I should change /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults        0       0 to what?
[06:54] <alek> does anybody know, if there is any way to share internet by bluetooth in ubuntu?
[06:54] <Samuli^> and 2= read, right?
[06:54] <jstraw> but when I went to boot the first time it failed to find inittab
[06:54] <mwe> Samuli^: that will mount it 555
[06:54] <mwe> Samuli^: the two will mask out write
[06:54] <Samuli^> mwe, ah, okay.
[06:54] <alek> or ubuntu only can share files via BT?
[06:54] <mwe> Samuli^: rwx are 4 2 1 respectively
[06:55] <mrblack> Hello, I have a Sony HMD-A240 monitor with no driver, I've tried many ways to try and force a refresh of 85 and a color depth of 32bits with no success, can anyone direct me to how I can make these changes?
[06:55] <serp> !smbmount
[06:55] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, serp
[06:55] <semboy> i open up synaptic package manager  and than i search for nvidia Once the search is complete i see a list Like linux-restricted-moudels  -the white box next to the following packages and select Mark for Installation in the menu that pops up: shude i install all the stuff?
[06:55] <semboy> or what
[06:55] <Doat> when i try to blank a cd-rw with gnomebaker it fails with: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14281 what should i do?
[06:55] <onePhatMind> mrblack, try generic monitor with your specs..
[06:55] <mrblack> I did
[06:55] <TheBigToe> mwe, so should I change /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults        0       0 to /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults,umask=0222        0       0?
[06:56] <mrblack> in the xorg.conf and through xrandr
[06:56] <onePhatMind> mrblack, what happened?
[06:56] <mrblack> no luck
[06:56] <mrblack> it remains at 60hz
[06:56] <jramsey> ubotu, tell TheBigToe about pastebin
[06:56] <rsa_md5> Which package in ubuntu 5.10 will give me the kernel source? I found one package "Linux" but its version was 2.6.12.16. Help please
[06:56] <onePhatMind> mrblack, try it through the gui
[06:56] <mrblack> I did the list box only displays 60hz even though I edited the file to only list 85
[06:56] <trym>  libxcomposite-dev: Depends: libxcomposite1 (= 1:0.2.2.2-0ubuntu2) but 1:0.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
[06:56] <mrblack> I get this msg in xrandr when trying to force it
[06:57] <onePhatMind> rsa_dm5, i thin kit might be kernel-devel
[06:57] <mwe> TheBigToe: yeah or just umask=0222
[06:57] <rsa_md5> no, it aint there. i searched using synaptic
[06:57] <mrblack> X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
[06:57] <mwe> TheBigToe: I'm not sure if defaults works with other options
[06:57] <Xappe> mrblack: have you put the refreshrates of your monitor in xorg.conf?
[06:57] <mrblack> Is the format of xrandr -s rez -r 85?
[06:58] <mwe> TheBigToe: change it to users,umask=0222
[06:58] <mrblack> Yes I did Xappe
[06:58] <Xappe> ok
[06:58] <mwe> TheBigToe: that will let users have permissions to mount it
[06:58] <mrblack> I know this monitor is verified to work on PS2 linux
[06:58] <mrblack> So I do not see why it is giving me such a problem on another Distro
[06:59] <mrblack> Sony's site doesn't link to the PS2 driver though
[06:59] <jramsey> TheBigToe, make sure after you change fstab that you umount and mount the drive; remounting is needed and umounting before you change fstab is always a good idea
[07:00] <mwe> TheBigToe: after you've changed it remount the drive, sudo mount -o remount /media/hda1
[07:00] <lrose> -
[07:00] <lrose> L
[07:01] <lrose> HOLA
[07:01] <trym> how do I downgrade libxcomposite1 ?
[07:01] <lrose> COMO TE LLAMAS
[07:01] <lrose> CERDO
[07:01] <jramsey> TheBigToe, here's a good read => http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows.php
[07:02] <tam> hi all, i''ve been having sound problems on dapper when I last rebooted my machine. it used to work all the previous times but it doesn't play any sounds. I tried loading the module (emu10k1) manually but it says FATAL: module not found although it has worked all the previous times. I am using alsa and when going through alsamixer it doesn't bring up my sound card. anyone got any ideas?
[07:02] <mwe> !ntfs
[07:02] <ubotu> it has been said that ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:02] <tag_> I was using soft raid and debian, I installed ubuntu on one of the two drives that was used in the soft raid
[07:02] <jramsey> !info dapper
[07:03] <tag_> the old debian distro kernel still shows up in my boot loader, probably by virtue of being on the second drive, I presume.  If I boot to it, can count on it not screwing up my ubuntu on disk 1?
[07:03] <mrblack> so I'm trying to use the command xrandr -s 1024x768 -r 85 but only -r 60 will work, even though I know for a fact this monitor does 85hz
[07:03] <mrblack> So again does anyone know how to brute force it into that setting?
[07:03] <tag_> I've noticed that the partitions softraid created, or that were created for softraid, show up as unknown partitions in the disk admin tool
[07:04] <mwe> tag_: if it's set up to raid it will overwrite the other drive
[07:04] <tag_> unknown types
[07:04] <tag_> I see
[07:04] <mrblack> And if I rename it from Generic Monitor in the xconf.cfg
[07:04] <mrblack> Would it then let me force the hz to 85?
[07:04] <tag_> mwe: How can I mount those mystical "unknown" partitions?
[07:04] <mwe> renmaming wont change the configuration
[07:04] <tag_> I just want to pull some data off the second drive
[07:05] <darius_> So, an RPM package overwrote/regenerated /etc/ld.so.conf - wiping out everything that was previously in there.  How could I get this file again?
[07:05] <tag_> out of the "old" raid
[07:05] <mwe> darius_: by default it's empty I believe
[07:05] <mwe> darius_: or not even present
[07:06] <HunterZ> hello
[07:06] <darius_> mwe: really?  I'm trying to launch application after this file was (re)generated and none of them will launch now.  Citing that they can't find the libraries
[07:06] <darius_> mwe: if ld.so.conf isn't being used, how do applications find the libraries?
[07:06] <mwe> darius_: what programs?
[07:06] <darius_> mwe: Openoffice/Evolution
[07:06] <mwe> darius_: they look in default places
[07:07] <mwe> darius_: sudo ldconfig see if fixes it
[07:07] <darius_> darius@babygirl:/cisco-ar$ evolution
[07:07] <darius_> evolution: /opt/CSCOar/lib/libnss3.so: version `NSS_3.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libsmime3.so)
[07:07] <mwe> darius_: sudo rm /etc/ld.so.conf && sudo ldconfig
[07:07] <darius_> k
[07:08] <mwe> darius_: is that the default evolution from ubuntu?
[07:08] <pineapple> is there a way I can log into gnome as root?
[07:08] <darius_> mwe: nope.  That's the new RPM application that was just installed
[07:08] <Venky> iam not able to install any extensions in my firfox ..iam using the latest dapper\
[07:08] <mwe> darius_: don't do that
[07:08] <mwe> darius_: it expects a differnt os
[07:08] <Venky> i cant see any extensions listed
[07:08] <jramsey> anyone know if the breezy install of open office has trouble rendering graphics in figures from imported Word 2000 docs??
[07:08] <darius_> mwe: it's the only way I can get the app to install.  The application is working
[07:08] <mwe> darius_: install the ubuntu version or compile it from source
[07:09] <Frogzoo> !tell jramsey about ooo2
[07:09] <beford> sexyLady, sexy entra en #ubuntu-es para poder ayudarte en espaol :)
[07:09] <Doat> when i try to blank a cd-rw with gnomebaker it fails with: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14281 what should i do?
[07:09] <darius_> mwe: it's a commercial application with no ubuntu package (nor source available)
[07:09] <mwe> darius_: what is it?
[07:09] <jramsey> Frogzoo, this is ok with breezy, and i don't need to upgrade to dapper??
[07:09] <mwe> darius_: why can't it use evolution from ubuntu?
[07:09] <mwe> darius_: also maybe it broke your system by overwriting ubuntu files
[07:10] <Frogzoo> jramsey: it runs on breezy & is a great improvement over 1.9
[07:10] <soundray> pineapple: there is a way, but it is totally and utterly deprecated. Use sudo or gksudo instead (e.g. Alt-F2, then enter gksudo nautilus)
[07:10] <darius_> mwe: oh.  I am using the Ubuntu Evolution.  But Evolution started failing once this ld.so.conf file was created by my Cisco RPM package
[07:10] <darius_> nwe: now that I've removed ld.so.conf and run ldconfig, Evolution is working again
[07:10] <mwe> darius_: how did you install the rpm?
[07:10] <tag_> mdadm: cannot open device /dev/sdb: Device or resource busy
[07:10] <darius_> nwe: but I imagine that the Cisco package will fail
[07:10] <tag_> crap
[07:10] <rgolden> newbie question from me: everything I minimize disappears, does NOT move to bottom panel, wha happen??
[07:10] <KaosX> carius is it cisco's vpn package?
[07:10] <darius_> nwe: with the rpm utility
[07:11] <darius_> KaosX: no, their Radius server
[07:11] <KaosX> i have their vpnc client jack my dapper install up real bad
[07:11] <KaosX> had
[07:11] <soundray> rgolden: have you removed Window List from the panel?
[07:11] <rgolden> I know I did something a few days ago, cant figure out what!
[07:11] <Frogzoo> rgolden: add a 'window list' to your toolbar - (right click - add - etc.)
[07:11] <mwe> darius_: if you insist on installing rpms in ubuntu you should use alien to convert it to a .deb so apt can verify it doesn't overwrite system files
[07:12] <KaosX> thats what i was gonna say
[07:12] <darius_> nwe: ahhh, that's good to know
[07:12] <soundray> rgolden: just right click, Add to Panel, select Window List
[07:12] <jramsey> Frogzoo, can i get synaptic to do the install?
[07:12] <mwe> tag_: can't you sudo mkdir /media/sdb && sudo mount /dev/sdb /media/sdb?
[07:12] <rgolden> thank soundray, I'll try
[07:12] <tag_> no
[07:12] <KaosX> sudo alien /path/to/rpm ... eh?
[07:12] <Frogzoo> jramsey: yup - but you need to add the repo
[07:12] <tag_> softraid creates strange partitions
[07:12] <jramsey> Frogzoo, ok i need to find it txs
[07:12] <pally> should i have a swap partition bigger/equal to the RAM size?
[07:12] <pally> to hibernate?
[07:12] <mwe> tag_: what does it say when you try mounting it?
[07:12] <darius_> mwe: ok, but that's a bit difficult.  The installer is a shell script that contain a uuencoded form of the RPM.  The shell script unencodes the RPM and installs it
[07:13] <Almenfors> hum..are most ftp servers for linux platforms consol based? seems hard to find a good one with gui
[07:13] <soundray> pally: yes.
[07:13] <mwe> darius_: cisco sucks
[07:13] <pally> soundray, o, :(
[07:13] <semboy> what is the good program or software to play Steam games
[07:13] <pally> I need a larger swap
[07:13] <darius_> nwe: indeed :/
[07:13] <tag_> unknown partition type, but I found that that ubuntu has already assembled the raids into dev /md0-3 , apparently, ubuntu is even smarter than I thought
[07:13] <tag_> and it's already pretty damn smart
[07:13] <mwe> darius_: at least that linux package does
[07:13] <semboy> what is the good program or software to play Steam games
[07:13] <KaosX> your best bet is cedega for games
[07:13] <Venky> iam not able to install ay firefox extensions
[07:13] <Archville> semboy: Cedega or Wine
[07:14] <semboy> !wine
[07:14] <semboy> where to download wine
[07:14] <Frogzoo> semboy: wine
[07:14] <rgolden> that fixed it, thanks!!!!
[07:14] <darius_> nwe: it looks like Cisco keep all of their files in their directory .. so no system files (besides ld.so.conf) are altererd
[07:14] <Frogzoo> !tell semboy about wine
[07:14] <mwe> tag_: I don't think you can mount a raid with only one of the drives in the array
[07:14] <tag_> mwe: I just did
[07:14] <mwe> tag_: really? good
[07:14] <tag_> yeah
[07:14] <mwe> tag_: how?
[07:15] <pally> what does 'recovery mode' do in Ubuntu grub?
[07:15] <mwe> darius_: are you sure?
[07:15] <tag_> ubuntu saw the second drive had a softraid configuration, it assembled the single drive into raid accessors on md*.  I checked dmesg, it only assembled the raid out of the single drive (meaning, well, that it wasn't *really* a raid)
[07:15] <semboy> yellow i have never download program on linux -so i need help
[07:15] <tag_> so I mounted /dev/md0
[07:15] <Venky> does anyone know how to fix firefox extesion issues
[07:15] <jramsey> Frogzoo, what line to i need in sources.list? i have deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/  but not sure what shoujld follow
[07:15] <tag_> and boom, there is what I wanted
[07:15] <mwe> darius_: you can't list the contents of the installed package
[07:15] <tag_> in fact
[07:16] <tag_> now that I know that, I didn't have to back up anything it seems
[07:16] <tag_> :-)
[07:16] <KaosX> semboy: from a terminal
[07:16] <KaosX> sudo apt-get update
[07:16] <mwe> tag_: cool
[07:16] <tag_> cool is right
[07:16] <KaosX> sudo apt-get install wine
[07:16] <KaosX> or you can do it from synaptic
[07:16] <scifi> whats the make directory command ?
[07:16] <KaosX> whatever youre more comfortable with
[07:16] <KaosX> mkdir
[07:17] <tag_> I suggest crossover office over wine
[07:17] <mwe> Venky: you need to be more specific
[07:17] <soundray> scifi: mkdir. Also read this:
[07:17] <_antix> crossover office is wine
[07:17] <tag_> it's a nicer package.
[07:17] <darius_> nwe: it "appears" that way anyways.  I can muck up the script to generate the rpm for me.  Can 'rpm' show me the install paths?
[07:17] <scifi> ty
[07:17] <soundray> !tell scifi about cli
[07:17] <tag_> _antix: I mean, over the ubuntu/debian wine distribution
[07:17] <Venky> can anyone tell me how to get extensions working in firefox...it seems oe r getting installed
[07:17] <mwe> darius_: yes
[07:17] <Frogzoo> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingWineFromSource
[07:17] <_antix> Venky: what version of firefox do you have?
[07:17] <gilster> hello i need help with suspend mode and kshutdown>?
[07:17] <soundray> Venky: via the menu, Tools-Extensions-Get More Extensions
[07:18] <mwe> darius_: I don't remember how. rpm -q or sth. refer to 'man rpm' please
[07:18] <gilster> how do i set automatic timer for suspend mode/?
[07:18] <Venky> ya i cant press ay of those buttos
[07:18] <Venky> all of them r greyed out
[07:18] <KaosX> -q just checks if an rpm is installed
[07:18] <jstraw> did anyone see what I said before getting rudely disconnected?
[07:18] <soundray> Venky: what buttons?
[07:18] <trym> what could a wrongly set freq on a lcd monitor the xconf result in ?
[07:18] <mwe> gilster: breezy?
[07:18] <KaosX> i havnt used a RHL based distro in a while though
[07:19] <Frogzoo> trym: on more recent monitors, it will just refuse to accept the signal
[07:19] <soundray> trym: a black screen, or an error message on the screen's OSD
[07:19] <trym> Frogzoo: when big movements are done, and also when Im viewing video.. there can be some flickering..
[07:20] <auTONYmous> I need help with upower...any takers?
[07:20] <Archville> How can i restore the original firefox icons ?
[07:20] <trym> because X starts just the same with a horizsync of 30-83 as ith 24-80
[07:20] <TuxRox> Anyone here using Dapper?
[07:20] <trym> does it make a difference?
[07:20] <auTONYmous> Archville: Check the wiki
[07:20] <mikarta>  /msg nickserv link mikarta morgen
[07:20] <soundray> TuxRox: yes, but join
[07:20] <jstraw> TuxRox: check topic
[07:20] <Mika_i_> hmm
[07:20] <soundray> #ubuntu+1 to discuss
[07:21] <darius_> nwe: yeah - Cisco isn't installing any files outside of its application directory accoding to rpm -q --list CSCOar-3.5.5-1119510131
[07:21] <Archville> auTONYmous, i checked it, but when i run the script, the links are broken for wget.
[07:21] <yoyo_> have any one here successfully install the ubuntu from USB-disk , I wanna copy the new ISO into USB-disk instead of brun a cd to try dapper , a rqpid changing version for now
[07:21] <scifi> ok i did cd /usr/local but now i want to open /usr/local/lib, i know theres a quick way of getting to the "lib" folder without typing the whole cd /usr/local/lib command ?
[07:21] <auTONYmous> Archville: You're right...I googled it and found another site with working links...
[07:21] <yoyo_> or give me some hint?
[07:21] <Archville> auTONYmous,  Do you still have the links ?
[07:22] <auTONYmous> anybody: I installed upower, had it working, compiled a new kernel, it broke. Any ideas?
[07:22] <soundray> yoyo, why not use a CD-RW?
[07:22] <ferronica> Is is necessary to install AUTOMATIX????
[07:22] <soundray> ferronica: absolutely not
[07:22] <_antix> ferronica: it's necessary not to
[07:22] <soundray> !automatix
[07:22] <ubotu> I heard automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, such as !easyubuntu.
[07:22] <FliesLikeABrick> no ferronica  that is an optional program
[07:22] <Venky> can someone suggest a way to completely uninstall firefox...i mean clean uninstall
[07:22] <cheziyi> ubotu, that sounds so familiar
[07:22] <ubotu> cheziyi: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:22] <sapote> !easyubuntu
[07:22] <ubotu> somebody said easyubuntu was an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/.
[07:22] <yoyo_> cause i dont wanna burn a cd and then watse a cd-rw
[07:22] <Venky> w/o a trace
[07:23] <ferronica> Just to run windows application???????????
[07:23] <FliesLikeABrick> Venky apt-get remove --purge firefox ?
[07:23] <Archville> And another one...  Is it possible to change a determined color (for example the window titlebar color) in a Gnome theme ?
[07:23] <FliesLikeABrick> Venky also delete .mozilla in your home folder(s)
[07:23] <cheziyi> ubotu: what?
[07:23] <ubotu> What what, cheziyi?
[07:23] <soundray> Venky: 'sudo apt-get --purge remove mozilla-firefox ; rm -rf ~/.firefox ~/.mozilla-firefox'
[07:23] <Venky> ty
[07:23] <FliesLikeABrick> yeah Venky  more accurate is what soundray said
[07:23] <ferronica> i prefer to use only ubuntu application...........
[07:23] <soundray> Venky: if you remove just the config dirs in your $HOME, it might fix it
[07:23] <cheziyi> oh ubotu, i was saying what you said about automatix sounds very familiar
[07:24] <gilster> mwe: no i am on dapper
[07:24] <yoyo_>  may be after the stable od dapper i will burn one ,and also do not satisfied by the update-script , it keeps many many things unchanged
[07:24] <ferronica> soundray: i hav just installed RP-PPPOE
[07:24] <borgista>  I think the LiveCD install may have killed my /home directory...any way to retrieve lost files?
[07:24] <soundray> !tell cheziyi about you
[07:24] <kmilo> HI
[07:24] <ferronica> soundray: But where is it located???
[07:24] <FliesLikeABrick> borgista there is no easy way, if it is possible at all
[07:24] <borgista> Any way to retrieve lost files when LiveCD Install formatted the wrong partition.
[07:24] <gilster> i am using dapper and trying to get auto suspend mode anyone>L>?
[07:25] <borgista> FliesLikeABrick: any help would be appreciated.
[07:25] <soundray> ferronica: find out with 'dpkg -L packagename'. Look for files in bin directories, they are commands usually.
[07:25] <borgista> FliesLikeABrick: I am desperate
[07:25] <soundray> borgista: what filesystem was on there before?
[07:25] <jramsey> help will getting repo line in sources.list; deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2
[07:25] <jramsey>  is what i put in for the oo2 update but synaptic complains; ubotu says "(add one of the 'deb' lines to sources.list and update+upgrade)" what should the line be?
[07:25] <FliesLikeABrick> borgista ext3 ?
[07:25] <borgista> soundray: ext3
[07:25] <borgista> yes
[07:26] <kmilo> Where Can I find a list of the canonical employees?
[07:26] <FliesLikeABrick> I don't know much about ext3 filesystem recover except the fact that it is possible
[07:26] <soundray> borgista: that's pretty hopeless, sorry.
[07:26] <mwe> gilster: kpowersave can hibernate at a preset battery level at least. I'm not sure about timer options
[07:26] <borgista> soundray: is there a FS that works better for file recovery?
[07:26] <soundray> borgista: ext2
[07:26] <Venky> says package mozilla firefox not installed hece not removed
[07:26] <borgista> ah!
[07:27] <FliesLikeABrick> borgista  he is not saying that ext2 will help you recover your lost data
[07:27] <gilster> mwe: yes, i dont want to hibernate...i want true suspend on a sepcific time
[07:27] <borgista> FliesLikeABrick: I know... i just know what to use for next time.
[07:27] <ferronica> soundray: i hav just installed it using this website--->http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu#How_to_install_Broadband_ADSL.2FPPPoE_Client_.28RP-PPPoE.29
[07:27] <borgista> FliesLikeABrick: I can't believe I lost all my files.
[07:27] <soundray> borgista: no, you are drawing the wrong conclusion.
[07:27] <FliesLikeABrick> soundray what makes ext2 easier to be recovered than ext3 ?
[07:27] <yoyo_> kmilo: I have seen this from ubuntu.frige
[07:27] <arrick> anybody ever had a pc that takes like 20 minutes to load ubuntu server, and 7hours to load win2003server?
[07:27] <arrick> hello all
[07:27] <FliesLikeABrick> arrick it sounds like you may have a failed or failing hard drive
[07:28] <auTONYmous> exit
[07:28] <arrick> FliesLikeABrick, ive went through 9 known good drives
[07:28] <Tux-Rox> OK, so every time I try to watch any video file in Dapper regardless of program used (totem, xine, vlc, etc) the program just crashes before a video can be played. Anyone seen this and have a quick fix?
[07:28] <mwe> gilster: not after a specific amount of time, at a specific time of the day?
[07:28] <yoyo_> arrick , 7hours for load win2003?
[07:28] <arrick> yeah
[07:28] <tipiak22> bonjour :-)
[07:28] <soundray> FliesLikeABrick: there are two packages, e2undel and recover, which are suitable for restoring files from botched ext2 systems. They don't work on ext3.
[07:28] <FliesLikeABrick> Tux-Rox  do you have codecs installed ?
[07:28] <Venky> so the command didnt uninstall firefox
[07:28] <arrick> 500mhz, with 3 sticks of 128 ram
[07:28] <FliesLikeABrick> ah soundray gotcha
[07:28] <Tux-Rox> FliesLikeABrick, yes I do, in /usr/lib/win32
[07:28] <gilster> mwe: yes
[07:29] <Tux-Rox> Works fine under Breezy on a different system.
[07:29] <arrick> FliesLikeABrick, I used checkit to burn in the drives to make sure they were good as well
[07:29] <gilster> i went to set it when i go to the office...to automatically go on suspend mode after X amount of time
[07:29] <gilster> at my discretion
[07:29] <yoyo_> have any one install the ubuntu from usb-disk
[07:29] <soundray> Venky: error messages?
[07:29] <Tux-Rox> FliesLikeABrick, even Vorbis files have the same reaction.
[07:29] <mwe> gilster: hmm. I'm not sure how to do that. you can power off the system at specific time
[07:30] <Tux-Rox> Only Real Player works.
[07:30] <kmilo> yoyo_, the fridge?
[07:30] <soundray> yoyo_: what you are trying is difficult. You may find some hints about running isos from a hard disk/ USB drive on Knoppix websites.
[07:30] <gilster> yes
[07:30] <FliesLikeABrick> Tux-Rox  are you using breezy or dapper?
[07:31] <FliesLikeABrick> er Tux-Rox for help with dapper join #ubuntu+1
[07:31] <jstraw> I'm having an issue with a 5.10 install on a sata drive
[07:31] <jstraw> the install worked fine but when I went to boot the first time it failed to find inittab
[07:31] <Venky> soundray i cant uninstall it
[07:31] <jstraw> the error is
[07:31] <yoyo_> soundray, thanks i know it ,but i wanna have a try
[07:31] <jstraw> [4294668.642000]  ata2: disabling port
[07:31] <jstraw>  * No inittab file found
[07:31] <mwe> gilster: sudo shutdown -h 01:30 will shutdown the system at 1:30 am. I'm not sure how to suspend at a specific time
[07:31] <soundray> ferronica: try 'gksudo /opt/rp-pppoe-3.6/go-gui'
[07:31] <yoyo_> fridge , yes i have found once ,
[07:31] <FliesLikeABrick> Tux-Rox  since dapper is in beta, bugs are expected.  Check with the people in #ubuntu+1 and if it is not a known problem, check if the bug exists.  if it doesn't then report the bug
[07:32] <soundray> Venky: error messages?
[07:32] <gilster> yes i am familiar with that command line
[07:32] <Venky> it says mozilla firefox is not installed hence not removed
[07:32] <jstraw> try at with software suspend
[07:32] <Venky> but i can open the browser
[07:32] <jstraw> (at is like cron, but runs once)
[07:32] <gilster> i want the exact thing for suspend
[07:32] <mwe> gilster: I think you have to write a script
[07:33] <jstraw> gilster: what do you run to suspend
[07:33] <soundray> gilster: in dapper, you can configure automatic suspend after inactivity via the gnome-power-manager. Breezy isn't quite there yet.
[07:33] <chamo1> plop
[07:33] <mwe> gilster: it could calculate the number of seconds until the specified time, then sleep for that many seconds then suspend
[07:33] <gilster> ok
[07:34] <jstraw> mwe: there's already a daemon built for this type of stuff
[07:34] <Venky> soundray any ideas?
[07:34] <mwe> jstraw: oh yeah. at
[07:34] <jstraw> *points at the at command*
[07:34] <gilster> i use klaptop to place manually under suspend....
[07:34] <mwe> gilster: use
[07:34] <jstraw> gilster: do you know what klaptop calls to suspend?
[07:34] <soundray> gilster, have a look at http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/faq.html#watch
[07:34] <mwe> gilster: at
[07:34] <gilster> i just wanted this to be after a specified period of inactivity
[07:35] <mwe> gilster: the at command will work
[07:35] <gilster> jstraw: not sure....
[07:35] <jstraw> anyways... can anyone help with my problem above?
[07:35] <soundray> Venky: have you installed firefox through apt?
[07:35] <gilster> but it works perfectly
[07:35] <shelly> quick interjection: I can't seem to download (get fail to fetch errors) from the .US dapper repositories all of a sudden. Is anyone else having trouble connecting to download?
[07:35] <Venky> i mean it was pre installed
[07:35] <Venky> but i can see it in synaptics
[07:36] <soundray> Venky: remove it via synaptic then.
[07:36] <Venky> i removed it from there and reinstalled it...but all my setting were there..it didnt look fresh
[07:36] <|mp|> just installed ubuntu dapper daily build on a Toshiba 4060XCDT - all is well it seems, except that the screen is not "fully used" - there is only an image in the middle of the screen - what to do?
[07:36] <Venky> well that didnt help coz it still doesnt let me install extensions
[07:37] <soundray> Venky: you have to remove the config directories in your $HOME while it is not running. Then you have to select "totally remove" in synaptic or whatever it is called.
[07:37] <Venky> ok how do i remove config files
[07:37] <mwe> gilster: you can configure kpowersave which is much more powerful to use whatever you want to suspend. it also supports timeouts
[07:37] <jramsey> trying to update to OO2.0; following error in synaptic: http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/dists/breezy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found ... sources.list line is: deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2 breezy main
[07:37] <soundray> Venky: you remove all directories in your $HOME that have firefox in the name.
[07:37] <arrick> |mp|, go to ubuntu+1 for dapper support please
[07:37] <jramsey> any ideas?
[07:38] <alleyoopster> |mp|: you could try to reconfigure x by running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[07:38] <Venky> how to go to $home directory
[07:38] <Venky> i have /home
[07:38] <soundray> !info openoffice.org2

[07:39] <Hajuu> I have a program running.. it isnt responding to killall psybnc, nor kill pid
[07:39] <Hajuu> how can I kill it?
[07:39] <FliesLikeABrick> Hajuu  psybnc requires the -9 signal
[07:39] <FliesLikeABrick> killall -9 psybnc
[07:39] <yoyo_> venky, cd ~
[07:39] <soundray> jramsey: remove the people.ubuntu.com line from your sources.list and install OOo2 from Ubuntu proper.
[07:39] <Dkt1> " . So is it installed somewhere else?
[07:39] <jramsey> soundray, i dont know what u mean by "ubuntu proper" sry
[07:39] <yoyo_> also $HOME means the home of the user
[07:39] <Dkt1> I did just install WoW on Ubuntu. Now I want to start it, how to do? I have tried "wine WoW.exe -opengl" but I do get: "wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\load.exe": Module not found
[07:40] <Hajuu> awsome
[07:40] <Hajuu> thanks FliesLikeABrick
[07:40] <soundray> jramsey: the default package source.
[07:40] <soundray> jramsey: sometimes referred to as 'main'
[07:40] <yoyo_> venky, $HOME is the environment variable point to the current user 's home directory
[07:41] <Venky> ok can u tell me the terminal command..i see only desktop and example dir
[07:41] <mheath> Venky: cd $home   or just    cd ~
[07:41] <Venky> ya i did it
[07:41] <mheath> Sorry, $HOME
[07:42] <jramsey> soundray, the only openoffice verison i have in synaptic is 1.9 and i want 2.0; does that mean the ubuntu 2.0 pkg isn't on the oo site?
[07:42] <yoyo_> Venky, can you give me the guide you currently use ?
[07:42] <Venky> ?
[07:42] <soundray> Venky: 'rm -rf $HOME/.firefox* $HOME/.mozilla*'

[07:44] <tag> that sucks
[07:44] <Tux-Rox> FliesLikeABrick, sorry, I am at work and had to rack a server right quick :-)  Thanks, I'll check it out!
[07:44] <tag> how do I fix this? :-)
[07:44] <soundray> jramsey: please try this: edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and replace the "people"-line with "deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/ ./"
[07:45] <tag> actually that question should go to dapper
[07:45] <soundray> jramsey: save, run 'sudo apt-get update', and try installing OOo again.
[07:45] <FliesLikeABrick> tag if you're running dapper, please ask that in #ubuntu+1.  the way that SMP systems are handled in dapper is different than in breezy
[07:45] <mwe> tag: install an smp kernel, probably
[07:46] <FliesLikeABrick> mwe  dapper does not have SMP kernels, SMP support is built into 686 kernels in dapper
[07:46] <mwe> FliesLikeABrick: I see
[07:46] <jramsey> soundray, i just found the same instructions at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-79469.html; am trying now ... will advise ty
[07:46] <lerch> Hi, where should I direct a question concerning wine?
[07:46] <FliesLikeABrick> tag  if you're running a 686 system, I'm guessing you're running on a 386 kernel now.  Upgrade to a 686 kernel and that problem should go away
[07:46] <feNNec> help on fwbuilder
[07:47] <soundray> lerch: try here, if you run wine on ubuntu.
[07:47] <alleyoopster> lerch : depends if it is red or white
[07:47] <lerch> soundray: I do, ok thanks, I'll give it a go
[07:47] <redloff_> hi
[07:47] <jramsey> soundray, apt-get update is hung at "99% [Waiting for headers] 
[07:47] <FliesLikeABrick> jramsey  archive.us.ubuntu.com is acting weird right now
[07:47] <jramsey> nevermind ... it finished
[07:48] <redloff_> should breezy badger have msttcorefonts package available after uncomenting all repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[07:48] <crimsun> yes
[07:48] <soundray> jramsey: I can tell you're the impatient kind ;)
[07:48] <redloff_> cause I don't have this package

[07:48] <lerch> I'm trying to run warcraft III + expansion and quite surprisingly it installs flawlessly ( I think...)... But when I try to run the game It asks for the CD
[07:48] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch  did you configure your CD rom drives with winecfg ?
[07:48] <redloff_> crimsun, what could be the reason of not finding that package?
[07:48] <jramsey> soundray, :) i have been at this for over an hour ... i am trying hard to be patient
[07:49] <x624> hey
[07:49] <mwe> redloff_: not enabling multiverse?
[07:49] <crimsun> redloff_: breezy/multiverse isn't enabled?
[07:49] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: I did run winecfg, and I guess it works, since it could install from it
[07:49] <mikomiko> hello, why cant i play video with music in it, it is only displaying the pictures but no sound
[07:49] <x624> how do you unblok a contact by gaim
[07:49] <soundray> jramsey: an hour is nothing if you're troubleshooting computer problems ;)
[07:49] <redloff_> crimsun, yes it is
[07:49] <mikomiko> I am using totem
[07:49] <redloff_> I've only commented out cdrom
[07:50] <mwe> redloff_: did you sudo apt-get update afterwards?
[07:50] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch how did you start the installer?
[07:50] <redloff_> mwe, yes I did
[07:50] <pawsilver> hi there
[07:50] <x624> For mp3 you must juse XMMS
[07:50] <jramsey> soundray, yanno what's even better? spending 2 hrs trying to get dvdrip working on a cd rw drive ... hehehe
[07:50] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: I ran "wine install.exe" from a terminal
[07:50] <redloff_> no msttcorefonts.. there are pending updates though
[07:50] <pawsilver> can some-one help me
[07:50] <x624> who has ubuntu 6.06
[07:50] <mwe> redloff_: can you put your /etc/apt/sources.list at paste.ubuntu-nl.org please?
[07:51] <uBuNtUn00b> hi, i have a noob question(soory): I downloaded emacs a .gz file, extracted it. Logged to root, to the source folder and typed ./configure and got the error: configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
[07:51] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch that doesn't mean that your CD rom drives are configured properly since when you do that, all that matters is that the files install.exe need are in that same relative path
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> uBuNtUn00b,  why are you bothering with the source at all?
[07:51] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch  run winecfg and make sure that your cd rom drive(s) appear in the list of available drives/devices
[07:51] <jramsey> uBuNtUn00b, you have build-essential installed?
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> !info emacs
[07:51] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: I'll do that right away..hang on
[07:51] <uBuNtUn00b> i have no idea what build essential is, where can i get it?
[07:51] <soundray> uBuNtUn00b: if you are a newbie, do yourself a favor and don't try to compile emacs as the first action.
[07:52] <webwolf_27> Hey can somebody please tell me how to fix the error "*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x081781d8 ***
[07:52] <webwolf_27> Unable to read printer database." or is this a bug in Dapper that needs to be reported
[07:52] <uBuNtUn00b> well compiling stuff and installing them should be one of the first things a noob learns?
[07:52] <jramsey> Dr_Willis, has a more fundamental question. there is a pkg for emacs and u dont need source but if u insist sudo apt-get install build-essential
[07:52] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell webwolf_27  about paste
[07:52] <feNNec> FliesLikeABrick: how could I know that my process carry i686 kernel ?
[07:52] <soundray> uBuNtUn00b: learn about how you install software on ubuntu, and install emacs from the repositories.
[07:52] <FliesLikeABrick> feNNec  what?
[07:52] <Dr_Willis> uBuNtUn00b,  you may want to spend a few hrs reading a few getting started guides then.
[07:52] <FliesLikeABrick> webwolf_27  please go to #ubuntu+1 with dapper problems
[07:53] <redloff_> mwe, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14284
[07:53] <webwolf_27> FliesLikeABrick, thank you
[07:53] <uBuNtUn00b> ok will do, one last question, probably a dumb one, you have a good site for ubuntu noobs?
[07:53] <soundray> uBuNtUn00b: 6 to 8 years ago, you would have been right.
[07:53] <jmoncayo> how can i see .avi files....
[07:53] <x624> Who has ubuntu 6.06???????????????????????
[07:53] <yoyo_> webwolf_27: double free means a bulk of memory has been freed and then try free it again ,usually causing by program's bug
[07:53] <Dr_Willis> Ubuntu has several guides on their homepage
[07:53] <soundray> x624, please read the /topic
[07:53] <crimsun> x624: we have the development version of it, yes...
[07:53] <feNNec> FliesLikeABrick: you were talking before about i686 or i386. I've i386 kernel and I don't know if I can upgrade to i686
[07:53] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: In winecfg > Drives it lists D: /media/cdrom0 along with some others
[07:53] <sexyLady> how can i see mpg videos
[07:53] <soundray> !tell jmoncayo about restricted
[07:54] <johnficca> hi I'm john and I kind of new to ubuntu linux, dose anyone know if there is something like apple front row or windows media center for linux
[07:54] <webwolf_27> yoyo_, then this is probably a glibc bug that needs to be reported
[07:54] <crimsun> feNNec: grep family /proc/cpuinfo
[07:54] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch  is /media/cdrom0 where that CD is?
[07:54] <soundray> !tell sexyLady about restricted
[07:54] <x624> I yuse XMMS player for mp3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[07:54] <FliesLikeABrick> feNNec what processor do you have?
[07:54] <mwe> redloff_: multiverse is only enabled for backports
[07:54] <soundray> sexyLady, jmoncayo, please look at the messages you got from ubotu
[07:54] <jmoncayo> i saw it thanks
[07:54] <Venky> thank you soundray that was helpful it got fixed
[07:54] <jmoncayo> !tell jmoncayo about restricted
[07:54] <FliesLikeABrick> x624  using obscene amounts of question and exclamation marks isn't going to get you any more positive attention
[07:54] <redloff_> oh
[07:54] <feNNec> FliesLikeABrick: intel centrino 900 M
[07:55] <redloff_> there was no other in default sources.list
[07:55] <FliesLikeABrick> feNNec  you can install a 686 kernel and you will not have any problems, your system will likely run better
[07:55] <crimsun> feNNec: sure, you can use the 686 kernel, then
[07:55] <lines> anybody experience with ldap under dapper?
[07:55] <redloff_> mwe, thx
[07:55] <mwe> redloff_: ad the word multivers at the end of lines 7,8,16 and 17
[07:55] <BillyJoejimbob> johnficca check out mythtv
[07:55] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: I'm not sure, how do I check that?
[07:55] <johnficca> thnaks
[07:55] <x624> wie is ned
[07:55] <soundray> x624: fix your ! key before you post any more lines.
[07:55] <mwe> redloff_: I'd also remove the pl. part from the mirrors
[07:55] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch where was install.exe?
[07:55] <jramsey> hehehe
[07:55] <FliesLikeABrick> !troll x624
[07:55] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, FliesLikeABrick
[07:55] <mwe> redloff_: so it reads just archive.ubuntu.com instead of pl.archive.ubuntu.com
[07:56] <jdmpike> exit
[07:56] <x624> I am from Holland Netherland >europe<
[07:56] <mwe> redloff_: that should redirect you to a good mirror
[07:56] <alleyoopster> lines: no, but thinking about it. what were you thinking of using?
[07:56] <redloff_> mwe, you mean it shoult be like deb http://archive.ubuntu... breezy universe multiverse ?
[07:56] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: On the CD... the window popped up as I fed it to the machine
[07:56] <redloff_> shouldn't I replace universe with multiverse?
[07:56] <soundray> redloff_: no
[07:57] <redloff_> ok
[07:57] <|mp|> alleyopster - excellent, with a reboot that worked!
[07:57] <redloff_> thx a lot
[07:57] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch cd /media/cdrom0; ls
[07:57] <FliesLikeABrick> lerch  does that show the contents of the CD?
[07:57] <jramsey> wow the ubuntu repo is really whacked
[07:57] <x624> I friend tel me that in ubuntu a much crashen is.
[07:57] <BillyJoejimbob> silly questions part one: whats's the difference between universe and multiverse??
[07:58] <alleyoopster> |mp| your welcome
[07:58] <jramsey> BillyJoejimbob, that is not a silly question
[07:58] <alleyoopster> |mp| you dont need to reboot next time ctrl-alt-backspace will restart x
[07:58] <mwe> redloff_: yeah
[07:58] <soundray> BillyJoejimbob: essentially, software in universe is free, whereas software in multiverse comes with restrictions on modification, redistribution and suchlike
[07:58] <BillyJoejimbob> yah i know alleyoopster but i'd like to know ~;-)
[07:59] <mwe> redloff_: then sudo apt-get update
[07:59] <lerch> FliesLikeABrick: Indeed it does, furthermore the window titles "cdrom0" in nautilus
[07:59] <BillyJoejimbob> ah ok soundray. so it's all about licensing
[07:59] <alek> is there any way to install linux on notebook with PCMCIA cdrom?
[07:59] <redloff_> mwe, sweet, works excellent, thx :)
[07:59] <soundray> Hi thoreauputic. Haven't seen you in a while.
[07:59] <mwe> redloff_: yw
[07:59] <lerch> And it did an autocheck for the drives, so I don't think that's the problem
[08:00] <alleyoopster> BillyJoejimbob: ?
[08:00] <mwe> redloff_: it's rather stupid multiverse is not in the comments IMHO
[08:00] <thoreauputic> soundray: correct :) I'm not on IRC as much these days
[08:00] <soundray> BillyJoejimbob: exactly. Both universe and multiverse are community-maintained, ie. not directly under the control of Ubuntu developers.
[08:00] <crimsun> err, that's not entirely precise
[08:00] <johnficca> every time I try to download something now it says 0% waiting for headers can anyone hlpe
[08:00] <BillyJoejimbob> thanks for that soundray much appreciated
[08:00] <redloff_> mwe, true
[08:00] <soundray> BillyJoejimbob: wait for crimsun's correction pls
[08:01] <crimsun> Ubuntu developers /do/ have direct control over universe and multiverse, but they're not /responsible/ for maintaining it.
[08:01] <x624> bye
[08:01] <soundray> BillyJoejimbob: I don't want you to go away with the wrong impression...
[08:01] <lerch> I read on the wine troubleshooting page that the problem might be related to bad nvidia drivers, but I only just updated to the current ones with the same problem
[08:01] <agorf> hello! ive installed  nxclient_1.5.0-141_i386.deb using dpkg -i and when the installation finishes, i cant find nxviewer or nxclient etc. any hints?
[08:01] <jramsey> BillyJoejimbob, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Linux
[08:01] <BillyJoejimbob> ok but i'm not understanding what crimsun means
[08:02] <yoyo_> agorf:dpkg -L nxclient
[08:02] <soundray> crimsun: I see, so in that sense, universe and multiverse are still official.
[08:02] <crimsun> BillyJoejimbob: universe and multiverse are maintained by members of the Ubuntu dev team known as "Masters of the Universe (MOTU)"
[08:02] <BillyJoejimbob> they have direct control but it's not their fault essentially? <G>
[08:02] <pally> is there any benchmard software for the video card?
[08:02] <pally> benchmark*
[08:02] <crimsun> soundray: absolutely, since they're components in the official repo
[08:02] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell pally about glxgears
[08:02] <Samuli^> :)
[08:02] <Samuli^> nice option for glxgears.
[08:02] <agorf> yoyo_, thanks a lot!
[08:02] <pally> glxgears didn't show me the  # of fps
[08:03] <pally> :(
[08:03] <FliesLikeABrick> pally  read all of what that message said
[08:03] <FliesLikeABrick> it tells you right in it how to make it show FPS
[08:03] <yoyo_> agorf, got the position of the file?
[08:03] <khelsys> hi boys
[08:03] <duckdown> !tell duckdown about glxgears
[08:03] <agorf> yoyo_, yeah its /usr/bin/NX/nxclient .. :P will symlink it to /usr/bin :)
[08:03] <pally> hmm
[08:03] <khelsys> can someone explain me how to install firefox 1.5?
[08:04] <mwe> !ff1.5
[08:04] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[08:04] <agorf> yoyo_, /usr/NX/bin/ even
[08:04] <mwe> khelsys: read that
[08:04] <yoyo_> :)
[08:04] <agorf> anyway, thanks again
[08:04] <khelsys> thankz!
[08:04] <yoyo_> khelsys, ff 1.5 ? any problem on install it?
[08:04] <lerch> Have anyone gotten Frozen Throne to work on Breazy under wine? ...and solved that asking for the CD problem?
[08:04] <lgc> Hi! (I don't remember anymore about fresh installs). Is there a trustworthy partition manager in the Dapper install disk?
[08:05] <soundray> lgc: there is, from beta2 (including flight 7). The dapper channel is #ubuntu+1 though
[08:05] <khelsys> yep
[08:05] <khelsys> it doesn't let me to open
[08:05] <yoyo_> knelsys, i am now using 1.5.0.3 by the apt-get you get basic ff ,and then update it by the updating-program provide by ff itself
[08:05] <mwe> khelsys: explain
[08:05] <khelsys> oh
[08:05] <khelsys> never seen >.<
[08:05] <khelsys> sorry :)
[08:06] <FliesLikeABrick> yoyo_ are you in breezy or dapper?
[08:06] <yoyo_> sorry ,Dapper beta2
[08:06] <lgc> soundray, thanks. You are positive that it won't wipe off Windoze?
[08:06] <FliesLikeABrick> yoyo_  that will make a difference as to how khelsys gets it if he is in breezy
[08:06] <khelsys> how to ameke the upgrade? yoyo_ ?
[08:06] <yoyo_> khelsys, what;s your version of ff?
[08:06] <khelsys> mh.. 1.0.8?
[08:06] <FliesLikeABrick> yoyo_ only ff 1.0.7 is available in the breezy repos
[08:06] <khelsys> maybe
[08:06] <soundray> lgc: no. Backup all data that you want to keep.
[08:07] <khelsys> yoyo_, 1.0.8
[08:07] <yoyo_> khelsys, 1.0.7 could not update itself?
[08:07] <soundray> lgc: but that's not saying it is any worse than, say, Partition Magic.
[08:07] <lgc> soundray, what is "flight 7"?
[08:07] <khelsys> yoyo_, , from where?
[08:07] <FliesLikeABrick> yoyo_  how can it update itself it is running as an unprivileged user on breezy?
[08:07] <mwe> for some reason the minfield release is way more stable than 1.5.0.3 here
[08:07] <FliesLikeABrick> lgc  flight 7 is the latest release of the beta version of ubuntu, dapper
[08:07] <soundray> lgc: a pre-release version of dapper. Go to #ubuntu+1 to learn more.
[08:08] <khelsys> yoyo_, how to make it?
[08:08] <pally> is 1846 fps a high one?
[08:08] <yoyo_> khelsys, i dont know ,i have root right any way
[08:08] <soundray> pally: yes
[08:09] <pally> wahaha
[08:09] <pally> soundray thank u
[08:09] <khelsys> yoyo_, you don't know how to upgrade to 1.5?
[08:09] <gnomefreak> !ff1.5
[08:09] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[08:09] <yoyo_> khelsys, and the ff warning me there is a new update available ,updating ? i choose yes ..so it updated
[08:09] <khelsys> mh...
[08:09] <FliesLikeABrick> khelsys  yoyo did it in a way that is not reccommended, use the link that ubotu just said
[08:09] <khelsys> k...
[08:09] <pally> !tell pally whoami
[08:10] <rinke> Where can I find my mysql password?
[08:10] <ferronica> what is w32 codecs
[08:10] <yoyo_> khelsys, I mean ff update automatically on my machine ,maybe i have the rights
[08:10] <lgc> FliesLikeABrick, soundray, thanks. My fear is that if I end up with an obscure options screen, chances are that I will make the wrong movement and wipe Windoze. I need something as easy to use as Partition Magic.
[08:10] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell ferronica about w32codecs
[08:10] <lines> re
[08:10] <lines> sorry
[08:10] <mwe> khelsys: the page I pointed you to explains how to install the new firefox version
[08:10] <ferronica> Is it like K-lite mega codec pack
[08:10] <soundray> lgc: it is incredibly easy to use.
[08:10] <yoyo_> knelsys, yes try ubotu
[08:11] <FliesLikeABrick> soundray  the dapper installer can resize ntfs?
[08:11] <Blabla> Hi there, I've a prob, when I try to install ubuntu, I got a black screen after few steps
[08:11] <soundray> lgc: in fact, I was disappointed. All the challenge has gone from installing Linux. ;)
[08:11] <lgc> soundray, that conforts me.
[08:11] <mwe> FliesLikeABrick: it can I think. the breezy installer can at least
[08:11] <FliesLikeABrick> Blabla what step, what is it doing when it goes black?
[08:11] <soundray> FliesLikeABrick: erm, why should it not?
[08:11] <ferronica> Is there any video available to install ubuntu first time user??????????????
[08:11] <BillyJoejimbob> anyone here have experience with external dialup modems? (i'm doomed to dialup)
[08:12] <lgc> soundray, many laymen will appreciate that feature, I'm sure!
[08:12] <Blabla> After an analyze of my computer
[08:12] <mwe> ferronica: just follow the prompts it's really easy
[08:12] <FliesLikeABrick> soundray  because I had been under the impression that resizing ntfs was something that few tools currently could do
[08:12] <soundray> BillyJoejimbob: how is it connected?
[08:12] <FliesLikeABrick> resizing the filesystem without destroying it, that iis
[08:12] <FliesLikeABrick> is*
[08:12] <baardi> Can anyone help me with installing WoW on ubuntu?
[08:13] <BillyJoejimbob> serial connection soundray
[08:13] <soundray> FliesLikeABrick: no, I've done that many times with older versions of parted and other tools.
[08:13] <baardi> !wow
[08:13] <ubotu> To run WoW properly, Wine needs to be built from source https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WorldofWarcraft and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingWineFromSource
[08:13] <kicolobo> Hi, does anybody here had tryed Xubuntu Live CD 6.06?
[08:13] <soundray> BillyJoejimbob: you need to configure PPP. Try through System-Administration-Networking
[08:13] <pally> !wow
[08:13] <pally> !mmd
[08:13] <ubotu> pally: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

[08:13] <johnficca> I can't download new programs anymore can someone help?
[08:14] <soundray> BillyJoejimbob: the first serial port in the system is /dev/ttyS0
[08:14] <BillyJoejimbob> ok thanks soundray
[08:14] <mwe> johnficca: explain
[08:14] <kicolobo> But I dont know the password

[08:14] <soundray> !au
[08:14] <ubotu> soundray: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:14] <ferronica> what is the command to clear all temprory files
[08:14] <johnficca> it says waiting for headers

[08:15] <soundray> ubotu, au is the country code for Australia
[08:15] <ubotu> soundray: okay
[08:15] <kicolobo> no, I didn't choose any password. I'm using the Live CD
[08:15] <mwe> baardi: is it even possible in linux?
[08:15] <ferronica> what is the command to clear all temprory files
[08:15] <FliesLikeABrick> baardi please read what ubotu said
[08:15] <FliesLikeABrick> !tell baardi about wow
[08:15] <ferronica> what is the command to clear all temp files
[08:15] <mwe> kicolobo: it doesn't have a password I think
[08:15] <oboy> hi, i am using ubuntu dapper, can I use debian marillat in my source.list?
[08:15] <mwe> ferronica: you don't want that
[08:16] <lgc> soundray, do you know what to apt-get in order to install C language online manuals?
[08:16] <FliesLikeABrick> baardi  you need to install it in wine, but you need to use a wine build from source
[08:16] <kicolobo> well, but it's asking me one.
[08:16] <mwe> kicolobo: what is?
[08:16] <RandolphCarter> lgc: manpages-posix-dev
[08:16] <soundray> RandolphCarter: you beat me!
[08:16] <RandolphCarter> soundray: :P
[08:16] <johnficca> the synaptic package manager all the downloading packages fail
[08:16] <pally> Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"
[08:16] <lgc> RandolphCarter, thanks! What does it install beside the C manuals?
[08:16] <pally> what does it mean?
[08:17] <ferronica> mwe: why?????????
[08:17] <RandolphCarter> lgc: the manpages in section 7 and section 3
[08:17] <tkjacobsen> oboy: try #ubuntu+1 (for dapper related questions)
[08:17] <RandolphCarter> lgc: that's it really :)
[08:17] <oboy> ok thx
[08:17] <lgc> RandolphCarter, does that complete the installation of all section of "man"?
[08:18] <mwe> ferronica: because programs create temp files when they need them. they will be removed automatically
[08:18] <soundray> johnficca: are you out of hard disk space?
[08:18] <johnficca> it says some of the packages could not be retreved from the server
[08:18] <johnficca> no I don't think some
[08:18] <RandolphCarter> lgc: well, it's all the manpages for posix anyway, usually if you install some libraries yourself they come with manpages included
[08:18] <johnficca> so
[08:18] <soundray> ferronica: you can reboot to delete temporary files that haven't been cleaned up
[08:18] <RandolphCarter> lgc: some of the docs are in /usr/share/doc, which you can browse by hand or using Yelp too
[08:18] <Tuzlo> how do you stop X Ubunto GUI from loading ?
[08:18] <mwe> khelsys: what is asking you for a password?
[08:19] <BillyJoejimbob> ya know this channel rocks. thanks to all of you from us who know squat about ubuntu! ~;-)
[08:19] <soundray> johnficca: it may be that the archive server is down. Try again.

[08:20] <lgc> RandolphCarter, thanks!
[08:20] <LinuxJones> Tuzlo,  you can simply do startx if you want to boot into gnome
[08:20] <Tuzlo> but I can still run GUI thru VNC?
[08:20] <mikomiko> I downloaded edonkey, how do i install it
[08:20] <soundray> Tuzlo: you'd have to start vncserver
[08:20] <Tuzlo> soundray: understood
[08:21] <Tuzlo> mikomiko: with apt?
[08:21] <ferronica> mikomiko: try tu use only ubuntu application
[08:21] <mwe> Tuzlo: you can do what you exactly the same things you could before but you have to start X manually
[08:21] <johnficca> it was working but I downloaded the mp3 plugins and then it stoped
[08:21] <ferronica> mikomiko: use nicotine to download Mp3 its much faster
[08:21] <googler> mikomiko, is it a deb package or binary source

[08:43] <premier69> right now im using mirc from my XP machine, i bought another computer which im going to get as soon as it stops raining here in sweden so i can install ubuntu on it and not just try the live cd
[08:43] <pally> it's an official question. heh
[08:43] <jramsey> premier69, mirc is real junk compared with xchat
[08:44] <scifi> pls help guys :P
[08:44] <Illnor> I have a dual boot with XP and Ubuntu.. what is the easy way to make the XP partition visible in Ubuntu?
[08:44] <premier69> jramsey i had problems getting up the resolution and wlan card on my dell laptop thats why im using mirc on my winxp
[08:44] <jramsey> premier69, ahhh ic
[08:44] <premier69> jramsey thats more than a first timer can handle
[08:45] <LinuxJones> premier69, it takes about a month to get used to where things are and how things are done for most folks. Hang in there you'll love Linux once you get past it's initial hurdles :)
[08:45] <Illnor> also the other hard drives I have I'd like to see also
[08:45] <premier69> LinuxJones i'm already loving it, now i just need to find out how to do stuff, so yeah i can't wait
[08:45] <pexi> premier69, your new laptop has a dell wireless card or an intel card??
[08:45] <jramsey> Illnor, http://ubuntuguide.org/#mountunmountntfs
[08:45] <h3h_timo> how do you install .deb packages?
[08:46] <ericz> sudo dpkg -i package_name.deb
[08:46] <Samuli^> h3h_timo, dpkg -i bla.deb
[08:46] <premier69> pexi it's an dell inspiron 1100
[08:46] <Samuli^> there's graphical installer called gdebi too.
[08:46] <h3h_timo> Samuli^, thank you,
[08:46] <LuNa4Death> hello, i just finished installing ubuntu for the first time, and i'm trying to change the sounds....can someone help me?
[08:46] <LinuxJones> premier69, I would put off wireless connectivity for a while. Use your regular nic card to connect your Ubuntu machine to the net if you can.
[08:46] <Tuzlo> http://pastebin.com/727011
[08:46] <premier69> LinuxJones yeah that seems easier
[08:46] <Tuzlo> gettin worse everytime I run it
[08:46] <premier69> I have a d-link wireless for my dell
[08:47] <Tuzlo> ah crap, nm that gnomefreak
[08:47] <Tuzlo> gimme a sec
[08:47] <premier69> that ndwapper thing, can it do wonders for drivers other than NICs?
[08:48] <Tuzlo> nm, seems to be workin now
[08:48] <scifi> i just moved a file using this command "sudo mv rp8codecs-20040626 /codecs"
[08:48] <scifi>  but when i open that directory in nautilus the files not there , please advise
[08:48] <LinuxJones> premier69, it's just for nics
[08:48] <nathansnook> Is ubuntu a stable OS
[08:48] <premier69> man, its been such a long time since i used irc last time, like 2 years. I've gotten too used to miranda im...
[08:48] <OlliK> nathansnook: yes.
[08:48] <premier69> LinuxJones ok thanks
[08:48] <LinuxJones> nathansnook, of course :)
[08:49] <nathansnook> Sorry to ask I was using fedora and was told that is something less than stable
[08:49] <gnomefreak> ack
[08:49] <nathansnook> So I am looking for something new to toy with and see what I think
[08:49] <sibblegp> how about this one......synergy needs the XTest library
[08:49] <sibblegp> is there a package for XTest?
[08:49] <maninthebox> hello everyone!
[08:49] <graveson> where can i find the package avidemux ?
[08:50] <Almenfors> hi again ppl. what was the command again for setting up password to samba?
[08:50] <jramsey> maninthebox, whiskey tango foxtrot
[08:50] <yacc> Whom does one complain about failing hosts?
[08:50] <Tuzlo> smbpassword
[08:50] <Tuzlo> or something like that
[08:50] <yacc> ubuntu.mirrors.tds.net has address 216.165.129.138 seems to be failing, ...
[08:50] <yacc> :(
[08:50] <premier69> this may be a dumb question but i'm a webdesigner and as such i need to know if there is internet exporer for linux so i can test compability when making sites.
[08:50] <jramsey> premier69, firefox
[08:50] <maninthebox> ?
[08:50] <Mystery47> in past i was tried fedora and red hat but this ubuntu finally ggot me off from windows....:)
[08:50] <yacc> premier69: Well, you can run it in crossoffice or inside vmware.
[08:50] <thoreauputic> premier69: heh - no
[08:50] <Tuzlo> no IE< theres firefox, and other browsers
[08:51] <premier69> thanks
[08:51] <Illnor> you can run IE in wine, yes?
[08:51] <premier69> oh ok
[08:51] <yacc> premier69: Logically there is none, IE is a MS product, remember?
[08:51] <jramsey> premier69, u mean run IE on ubuntu? maybe wine
[08:51] <Tuzlo> IE sucks anyway
[08:51] <thoreauputic> premier69: you can run it in emulators, or wine etc
[08:51] <Mystery47> i hope that soon ubuntu supports fully xgl....:)
[08:51] <premier69> yeah IE sucks but so many have it so sites need to be IE compatible, yes+
[08:51] <yacc> Tuzlo: Did you not read his question: He needs it for testing compability :(
[08:51] <thoreauputic> Tuzlo: he needs it to test his web pages
[08:52] <premier69> i wish i could ignore IE
[08:52] <Tuzlo> just stick to the html spec and avoid IE or Netscape variations of iit
[08:52] <thoreauputic> although actually he should just use standards compliant code :)
[08:52] <scifi> no ideas then guys ? :(
[08:52] <premier69> but i guess i can test sites on another windoz machine
[08:52] <graveson> where can i find the package avidemux ? anyone ?
[08:52] <Illnor> I need IE because firefox is not compatible with MSN Money
[08:52] <premier69> thoreauputic yeah
[08:52] <premier69> thoreauputic but png are standard compliant but the transparency sucks in IE
[08:52] <Illnor> I do not get why linux folk prefer firefox to Opera.. opera to me seems far superior.. firefox can't print a webpage to save its life
[08:53] <jramsey> Illnor, improperly stated; MSN Money had proprietary extensions that ms shoves down peoples throats
[08:53] <sibblegp> doesn't someone know what the XTest library is?  :(
[08:53] <thoreauputic> premier69: your sites should work in any compliant browser - problem is IE isn;t one
[08:53] <Illnor> jramsey, open source folks have not replicated the services MSN Money provides. until then, IE stays
[08:53] <jramsey> Illnor, IE is a horrible browser ... it still crashes
[08:54] <thoreauputic> Illnor: some people use Firefox on principle - Opera is not Libre/Free
[08:54] <gnomefreak> !info avidemux
[08:54] <Illnor> firefox doesn't WORK
[08:54] <jramsey> Illnor, have u tried opera
[08:54] <yacc> Ok, so where does one complain about a failing box (one of the IPs for us.archive.ubuntu.com)?
[08:54] <premier69> yeah its worthless IE...
[08:54] <Tuzlo> firefox doesnt work on what?
[08:54] <thoreauputic> Illnor: FF works - so does Konqueror, or Galeon, or Epiphany
[08:54] <gnomefreak> im not sure if its in breezy check on packages.ubuntu.com
[08:54] <gnomefreak> yacc: we know the us repos are having issues its in the /topic
[08:55] <yacc> oops.
[08:55] <gnomefreak> yacc: take out the us. part of the repos
[08:55] <premier69> I've been using windows for 8 years now, think of the difficulties in changing from that crap, i wish i hadn't been so lazy earlier.
[08:55] <Illnor> It is however the fault of MS that FF doesn't work with it, so I cannot complain about firefox on that regard. but they really need to fix the printing with ff
[08:55] <thoreauputic> yacc: the us. repos often have hiccups it seems
[08:55] <yacc> thoreauputic: temp. fix or should I just leave the us. perm away?
[08:55] <jramsey> Illnor, go here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser and install opera then try it
[08:55] <rob138> should i be using a 686 kernel if uname -a shows: Linux beastie 2.6.15-23-386 #1 PREEMPT Thu May 18 16:42:54 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[08:55] <Illnor> jramsey, I use opera
[08:56] <jramsey> Illnor, and u still have site issues with MSN Money?
[08:56] <gnomefreak> yacc: leave them out
[08:56] <Gizmo_The_Great> test
[08:56] <thoreauputic> yacc: up to you - there are other mirrors besides archive.ubuntu.com
[08:56] <ompaul> !test
[08:56] <ubotu> Stop poking me!
[08:56] <thoreauputic> yacc: your speeds may be a bit slower
[08:56] <Illnor> hmm, i've only tried it with ff.. i'll try that now
[08:56] <Samuli^> gnomefreak, do you know where that is located?
[08:56] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: I use au. mostly - it is fast and reliable
[08:57] <Gizmo_The_Great> Can someone tell me why, after installing a software app with Synaptic I cannot see it in the Applications menu, but I can see it in the Applications Configuration Menu?
[08:57] <Illnor> jramsey: yes, opera doesn't work with it either. visit here http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/finder/customstocksdl.asp
[08:57] <Gizmo_The_Great> the Applications Menu Editor i mean
[08:57] <Illnor> the link for the deluxe screener is only available with IE as far as I can tell. fails with firefox. fails with opera.
[08:57] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: just tick the box then
[08:57] <rob138> should i be using a 686 kernel if uname -a shows: Linux beastie 2.6.15-23-386 #1 PREEMPT Thu May 18 16:42:54 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux?
[08:57] <ompaul> Gizmo_The_Great, not all things you install are for gnome
[08:58] <linuxpoet> If am running 64bit Dapper, is OO 64bit as well (I know firefox is because I can't run flash ;))
[08:58] <scifi> Gizmo: just need to refresh gnome, i forget the command tho :P
[08:58] <crimsun> rob138: you can, sure.
[08:58] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: the powers that  be like to hide things they think are too geeky for Ubuntites ;)
[08:58] <linuxpoet> I am having an odd problem with OObase and odbc which is why I ask
[08:58] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: like terminals ;)
[08:58] <gnomefreak> thoreauputic: de is fast and relaible also
[08:58] <Gizmo_The_Great> thanks guys for you replies. Not really techie apps - just 3D Chess
[08:58] <rob138> crimsum, should i though?
[08:58] <charlesg3> my firefox plugins are b0rked... when i try java the mplayer plugin loads
[08:58] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: ah yes - I would expect that :)
[08:58] <gnomefreak> ;)
[08:58] <FarrisG> I have a shell script on my desktop, it's executable. When I double-click it asks if I want to run it or display its contents. How do I configure it such that double-clicking always executes without that prompt?
[08:59] <Gizmo_The_Great> thoro - I had ticked the apps already which is why I could not understand why they not showing. ompaul - if not a Gnome app how do you access it from the desktop? do you know?
[08:59] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: I'm sure the Germans have it down to nine decimal places ;-)
[08:59] <gnomefreak> lmao
[08:59] <Gizmo_The_Great> via command lline?
[08:59] <t-thing> Do command line calendar apps exist? I'm looking for something which may not be as feature rich as evolution but bit more interactive than cal.
[08:59] <duckdown> Hey, who can do that 1-character smiley face? (I think it's KANJI)
[09:00] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: sometimes a "killall gnome-panel" makes them appear
[09:00] <duckdown> I'm pretty sure someone in here always uses it
[09:00] <jramsey> Illnor, ok i opened it ... what shoujld i try??
[09:00] <ompaul> Gizmo_The_Great, some of them get buried in menus you would not expect and some of them don't make it at all, but you can set up a launcher for it
[09:00] <scifi> thoreau: that was the command i cudnt remember :)
[09:00] <Illnor> jramsey, the option for you to try is not there. when you view that page in IE, an option exists to view a 'Deluxe Screener'. It is simply absent in anything non-IE
[09:00] <ompaul> Gizmo_The_Great, and some of them should not be there at all - apache as one example :)
[09:00] <Blissex> duckdown: in most cases your IRC client can be set to turn a three character smiley into a little icon.
[09:00] <Gizmo_The_Great> thoreauputic, the kill all won't bust my setup will it?
[09:01] <gnomefreak> xchat would be one of those
[09:01] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: no, gnome-panel respawns
[09:01] <scifi> after a few weeks of using ubuntu, remembering commands is still something i have trouble with :P
[09:01] <Gizmo_The_Great> ompaul - i see by right clicking on desktop 'New Launcher' can be selected. I will try that too
[09:01] <Gizmo_The_Great> thoreauputic, thanks
[09:01] <duckdown> Blissex> Hehe naw, it's a character.. It's a Japanese Kanji letter, but it looks like a smiley
[09:01] <Rubini> Hello, I have a Problem with my Screen Resolution under Drapper (live cd as well), just get 640x480 -  but the 5.10 works good and shows 1600x1200. is there anybody who is willing to help me please
[09:02] <Blissex> duckdown: well, the smiley is actually a proper Unicode character IIRC.
[09:02] <Blissex> !resolution
[09:02] <ubotu> from memory, resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:02] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: killall foo means "kill all processes of the foo program" - but gnome-panel resurrects itself :)
[09:02] <ramvi> I can't close the popup windows azureus gives me, what do I do?
[09:02] <Archville> How can i tell a program to use a specific sound driver ? (oss/alsa...)
[09:02] <gnomefreak> ramvi: killall azureus
[09:02] <scifi> i just moved a file using this command "sudo mv rp8codecs-20040626 /codecs"
[09:03] <scifi>  but when i open that directory in nautilus the files not there , please advise
[09:03] <ramvi> gnomefreak, but I want to be able to close them...
[09:03] <ramvi> how do I fix the problem?
[09:03] <Gizmo_The_Great> thoreauputic, cool man. Tried that and it has worked for some things like Scribus that was not showing before. Still no sign of 3D Chess though. But thanks for that little gem. So many things to remember with Linux :-)
[09:03] <Allz> okei i need help
[09:03] <Allz> i dont know what i am doing
[09:03] <Allz> shitt
[09:03] <Allz> ;S
[09:03] <thoreauputic> scifi: did you really mean /codecs or codecs/
[09:03] <gnomefreak> ramvi: use a less memory intensive bit torrent client?
[09:03] <leendert> hello
[09:03] <gnomefreak> Allz: watch you language
[09:03] <ramvi> gnomefreak, no, I've got enough...
[09:04] <Rubini> @ubotu i tried all the things from this link
[09:04] <leendert> do you know how i can play windowsgames in ubuntu?
[09:04] <gnomefreak> ramvi: java guis have issues with not responding
[09:04] <Gizmo_The_Great> ompaul,  In order to create a new launcher for 3d chess, where would I find it in the file system?
[09:04] <thoreauputic> scifi: /codecs would be a dir directly off the / directory
[09:04] <gnomefreak> !cedega
[09:04] <leendert> of kan er iemand nederlands?
[09:04] <jramsey> leendert, which windows games? on zone? no it has proprietary IE extensions
[09:04] <gnomefreak> !+cedega
[09:04] <ubotu> (formerly WineX) TransGaming Technologies' proprietary fork of Wine, for running games written for Microsoft Windows under Linux by providing a DirectX API. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega and for a list of working games see http://www.transgaming.org/gamesdb or #cedega or http://www.frankscorner.org/ note: the 5.1.2 release notes mention a copy protection bug with kernels 2.6.9 and 2.6.10, fixed in 2.6.11
[09:04] <ramvi> gnomefreak, so there's no fix?
[09:04] <gnomefreak> ^^^ leendert
[09:04] <leendert> cedega is not free, i think
[09:05] <gnomefreak> ramvi: kill it and restart it
[09:05] <linuxpoet> but it is not expensive either
[09:05] <trym> cedega  is free
[09:05] <gnomefreak> leendert: no its not
[09:05] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: dpkg -L <packagename> | grep bin
[09:05] <trym> but if you want the packages, you have to pay the subscription
[09:05] <Tuzlo> can you update-rc.d to add instructions?
[09:05] <gnomefreak> trym: no its not
[09:05] <Allz> someone read this and help me please i have extract this stuff The TransGaming ActiveX Contro
[09:05] <tag> is one of the package repository mirrors down today or something?
[09:05] <Rubini> i even tried to put the xorg.conf from the 5.10 live cd to my dapper installation - still 640x480
[09:05] <gnomefreak> trym: its a free 14 day trial
[09:05] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: that usually finds a binary
[09:05] <tillicollaps3> please someone could help me to find the source for kernel 2.6.15-20, i need for linuxant driver....HELP
[09:06] <scifi> thoreauputic: hmmm, but i thought if i was currently in the /usr/local/lib
[09:06] <gnomefreak> tillicollaps3: are you on dapper?
[09:06] <leendert> but can you with more people on 1 cedega account?
[09:06] <thoreauputic> tillicollaps3: apt-cache search linux-source I think
[09:06] <tillicollaps3> yes beta 2
[09:06] <ompaul> Gizmo_The_Great, so to do that I would first build the locate database, >>sudo updatedb<< then I would look for 3dchess with the command locate 3dchess (cos I don't know what it is called, or locate chess | more) anyway let us assume yo know what it is then you can do this, put the program name in command line and fill out the other parts and save
[09:06] <gnomefreak> tillicollaps3: in #ubuntu+1 is dapper and look for it in synaptic
[09:06] <tillicollaps3> i have no connection from linux i had to download it from win
[09:06] <gnomefreak> !kernel-source
[09:07] <gnomefreak> !+kernel-source
[09:07] <ubotu> somebody said kernel-source was if you need to install the kernel source for your running kernel, sudo apt-get install linux-source-$(uname -r), more than likely though, all you need is to install the kernel headers for your running kernel. (if you need to compile a module) sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[09:07] <Rubini> I have a Problem with my Screen Resolution under Drapper (live cd as well), just get 640x480 -  but the 5.10 works good and shows 1600x1200.
[09:07] <Rubini> i even tried to put the xorg.conf from the 5.10 live cd to my dapper installation - still 640x480
[09:07] <Rubini> is there anybody who is willing to help me please
[09:07] <thoreauputic> scifi: the path would be relative
[09:07] <ManiacWork> anyone running the ebuntu packages?
[09:07] <Gizmo_The_Great> thoreauputic, that rocks! I'm really starting to see why command line so good. It is in usr/share
[09:07] <thoreauputic> scifi: else you have to give the full path
[09:07] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great: :)
[09:07] <scifi> thoreauputic: HaHa, thankyou, it created the codecs folder @ root and moved them there lmao
[09:07] <thoreauputic> Gizmo_The_Great:  sudo apt-get install apt-howto && apt-howto
[09:07] <tillicollaps3> i know this but i can download only from windows
[09:07] <thoreauputic> :)
[09:08] <Gizmo_The_Great> thoreauputic,   It is in usr/lib/menu actually - reading the wrong bit :-)
[09:08] <Gizmo_The_Great> thoreauputic, what will that do?
[09:08] <blaze> can somebody help me install my video drivers?

[09:30] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell thinX -about ati
[09:30] <thoreauputic> !fixres
[09:30] <ubotu> Help to fix the display resolution is available at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto

[09:31] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell rockzman -about repos
[09:31] <kane777> miranda82, i would say it will erase your data... you'd have to find a program that would restore your drives...
[09:31] <coucho> gnomefreak: well, it works, but i don't even have to try to install drivers
[09:31] <gnomefreak> rockzman: the link for breezy that ubotu sent you has a list of them

[09:38] <CoffeeBuzz> is the 5.10 amd64 fairly stable?
[09:38] <meheren> maybe that's it
[09:38] <thoreauputic> meheren: that's the one
[09:38] <meheren> ok thx
[09:38] <rockzman> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14288
[09:38] <thoreauputic>  /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:39] <Flannel> CoffeeBuzz: it is.
[09:39] <dodman> has anyone had experience with powernowd+amd+ubuntu?
[09:39] <FeestBijtje> hey my 1st question
[09:39] <NickGarvey> CoffeeBuzz: worked fine for me, dapper worked with no boot options which many other distros need
[09:39] <arrick> Flannel, you good with bios settings?>
[09:39] <FeestBijtje> how do i add PRESETS for my EQ for XMMS
[09:39] <Flannel> arrick: erm, sure?
[09:39] <gnomefreak> rockzman: your sources.list file is shot you have no repos in it :( you need a real list before you can upgrade
[09:40] <NickGarvey> rockzman: ouchy
[09:40] <rockzman> gnomefreak: where can i get a "real list" :>
[09:40] <gnomefreak> rockzman: copy and paste the breezy sources that ubotu will send you to your list and delete whats in there now
[09:40] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell rockzman -about repos
[09:40] <rockzman> gnomefreak: roger that
[09:40] <exmethix> http://welt1.antswar.eu/?ak=uw&pick=1562 <---- Was ist das? Kann mir das mal jemand versuchen zu erklren?
[09:40] <gnomefreak> rockzman: make sure you paste from the witespace on bottom of that page
[09:40] <CoffeeBuzz> NickGarvey, if dapper is being released soon, will there be many major changes from the most recent beta? Will it be difficult moving from 5.10 to 6.02?
[09:41] <gnomefreak> exmethix: #ubuntu-de
[09:41] <NickGarvey> CoffeeBuzz: I doubt it, upgrading is very easy
[09:41] <gnomefreak> CoffeeBuzz: the major changes are over
[09:41] <gnomefreak> and its 6.06 ;)
[09:43] <Flannel> CoffeeBuzz: if you install the beta, or any of the RCs, updating to the final is as easy as normal security updates (with more packages)
[09:43] <arrick> Flannel, I have a Asus P5A board and it has a bunch of advanced settings in it, I need some help setting it to what I absoluetely have to have
[09:43] <miranda82> kane777, haven't found anything?
[09:43] <obscurite> Can Korganizer/Kalarm or another program wake up your computer and play an alarm? Is there a way to set timers like that for suspend?
[09:43] <Flannel> arrick: heh, google everything.  You can probably find the manual on google anyway.
[09:43] <arrick> ok
[09:43] <gnomefreak> Flannel: you would do your updates as you normally would only more
[09:44] <Flannel> gnomefreak: erm, him. not me ;)
[09:44] <gnomefreak> ok time for me to go night all
[09:44] <gnomefreak> Flannel: oh sorry
[09:45] <kane777> miranda82, unfortunately not... you might try gparted and see what you can do from there... I can't realy see how this might have happened... sorry...
[09:45] <miranda82> hey guys, i really need help
[09:45] <miranda82> it seems like that, accidentally my hdd has unknown type of partitions, is therwe a way of restoring them to ext3 without erasing its contents?
[09:46] <obscurite> miranda - fdisk would do it
[09:46] <miranda82> obscurite, without erasing the content?
[09:46] <GazzaK> fdisk would do it - without erasing its contents?
[09:46] <obscurite> miranda82 - if you do 'fdisk /dev/hda' and type the 'p' command, what partitions do you see?
[09:47] <miranda82> let me see
[09:47] <miranda82> unknown unknown
[09:47] <obscurite> what drive are you checking by the way? is there only one IDE drive?
[09:47] <miranda82> f course..
[09:47] <miranda82>

[09:49] <NickGarvey> C|int: what did you change too?
[09:49] <kmilo> C|int, why?
[09:49] <obscurite> miranda - if they were all ext2 or ext3 you can just change their types with the 't' command
[09:49] <obscurite> miranda82 - except one is probably swap
[09:49] <miranda82> obscurite, yeah
[09:50] <miranda82> but... without erasing its contents???
[09:50] <Stc> hello
[09:50] <obscurite> miranda82 - modifying the partition table will not destroy the data. (can anyone confirm what i'm saying please)
[09:50] <miranda82> is there a way to check if data is still inside it?
[09:51] <cjones> how do you install mplayer ?

[09:54] <obscurite> miranda82 - that's odd. did you try to install osx86?
[09:54] <miranda82> nope
[09:54] <miranda82> obscurite, suppose my brother has tried 
[09:54] <obscurite> miranda82 - ahh, that could be it
[09:54] <kmilo> miranda82, what did you do to your partitions?
[09:54] <miranda82> is there anyway to check if my data is still there?
[09:55] <obscurite> miranda82 - i'm surprised you were able to boot without a valid partition table. did you reboot since the damage happened?
[09:55] <rverrips> Hi - Any qemu guru's in the house?  I'm having a little difficulty setting up my QEMU network ...

[09:56] <cjones> will someone look at this and tell me what is wrong ?     http://pastebin.com/727136
[09:56] <charlesg3> anyone familiar with firefox plugins?
[09:57] <obscurite> miranda82 - do those partitions look familiar (in terms of how many and how big they are)
[09:57] <TheBigToe> is there a way to get my screen into 1280x1024 resolution? it only goes up to 1024x768
[09:57] <Flannel> Lars_: #ubuntu+1
[09:57] <NickGarvey> charlesg3: what do you need?
[09:57] <miranda82> yeah
[09:57] <miranda82> hdc1
[09:57] <miranda82> is my first partition in ubuntu
[09:57] <joeljkp> cjones: do you have universe enabled and all that?
[09:57] <miranda82> same size
[09:57] <miranda82> and blocks
[09:57] <obscurite> miranda82 - do you remember which one was swap?
[09:57] <kmilo> obscurite, it tell me about my ext3 and swap
[09:57] <miranda82> sure
[09:57] <miranda82> but
[09:57] <miranda82> hdc4 is the same as hdc5
[09:57] <obscurite> kmilo - not me. i wonder why.
[09:58] <charlesg3> my java plugin is messed up, it's not listed in about:plugins (using firefox 1.5.0.3 on dapper)
[09:58] <kmilo> obscurite, me too, did you use sudo?
[09:58] <Flannel> charlesg3: #ubuntu+1 for dapper support
[09:58] <talldave> i have been having problems with system freezing with high cpu usage, This is when i am running either DVDshrink under wine or K9copy. this has only started recently, but i see from the forums that others have had the same problem. has anyone any ideas how i can salve the problem?
[09:58] <charlesg3> I was experiencing the same issue in breezy but thanks
[09:58] <obscurite> kmilo - ahh there i go
[09:58] <TheBigToe>  is there a way to get my screen into 1280x1024 resolution? it only goes up to 1024x768
[09:58] <MenZa> !resolution
[09:58] <ubotu> methinks resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:59] <TheBigToe> thanks
[09:59] <MenZa> np
[09:59] <kane777> how can I install Quick Time plugin for firefox???
[09:59] <miranda82> obscurite, the size and block haven't changed
[09:59] <kane777> !quicktime
[09:59] <ubotu> quicktime is, like, totally, read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats for information on quicktime support or just install the "libquicktime1" package.
[09:59] <MenZa> !quicktime
[09:59] <MenZa> ^^^
[09:59] <obscurite> miranda82 - pastebin the output of sudo file -s /dev/hdc[1-5]  like kmilo suggested
[10:00] <miranda82> obscurite, kmilo http://pastebin.com/727146
[10:00] <miranda82> hdc3 is actually geexbox
[10:00] <Xbox_guru> hello, is firestarter a good firewall, or do you suggest a better one
[10:00] <miranda82> hdc1 is my / partition
[10:00] <miranda82> hdc2 free space i had
[10:01] <miranda82> and hd4 and 5 was swap
[10:01] <Seveas> Xbox_guru, it's pretty decent
[10:01] <obscurite> miranda82 - ahh, i thought you were talking about OSX-86 ... i see it just says x86
[10:02] <Xbox_guru> sevas, you recomend anything
[10:02] <Dkt> How do I install Nvidia drivers for Ubuntu Breezy?
[10:02] <obscurite> miranda82 - just edit the types using the 't' command, write your changes and exit with 'w' and try booting. make sure the / partition is bootable
[10:02] <Seveas> Xbox_guru, I always hand-tune my iptables rules but that's just crazy
[10:02] <kmilo> miranda82, you brother...
[10:02] <Seveas> I'd say: use firestarter
[10:02] <Xbox_guru> ok, thanks
[10:03] <miranda82> kmilo, my brother saw that i installed macosx86 on dady's laptop
[10:03] <miranda82> and i think he tried to do the same here...
[10:03] <Stc> Dkt, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29%7C%28driver%29
[10:03] <miranda82> obscurite, just change it?
[10:03] <C|int> bye all,
[10:03] <C|int> have a great summer.. :)
[10:03] <obscurite> miranda82 - yep. change the types back to what they should be
[10:03] <TheBigToe> how do you edit a file using sudo?
[10:04] <cjones> joeljkp: yes i think so but let me check
[10:04] <TheBigToe> Nano doesn't ask for my password but I can't write to the file
[10:04] <miranda82> obscurite, that will not destroy anything?
[10:04] <C|int> The^nike:
[10:04] <C|int> sudo gedit
[10:04] <C|int> ;)
[10:04] <obscurite> miranda82 you can make a backup of the partition table first if you want, although it's already toasted
[10:04] <C|int> but i'm thinking , gnome :)
[10:04] <miranda82> i just do not want to erase anything..
[10:05] <C|int> thought I would help a bit before I Left da scene :-)
[10:05] <obscurite> can someone please confirm that writing to the partition table will not affect the data on the partitions
[10:05] <miranda82> ...
[10:05] <C|int> I mean who knows if I'll ever come back. will see :)
[10:05] <miranda82> lol this is frightening for me...
[10:05] <cjones> joeljkp: yes it is
[10:05] <variant> obscurite: it probably will if your not carefull
[10:05] <miranda82> variant, what do you mean?
[10:05] <rockzman> can someone help with my sources.list
[10:06] <kmilo> rockzman, how?
[10:06] <variant> miranda82: well, what are you planning to do with the partitions?
[10:06] <kane777> C|int,  r u planing something??
[10:06] <GazzaK> obscurite, afaik writing to the partition table will not actaully remove data from the drive, but nothing will be able to find the data....
[10:06] <miranda82> variant, the filesystem seems to have been changed on the partition table
[10:06] <kane777> rockzman, how can i help you??
[10:06] <obscurite> gazzak - that's what i was saying. i just wanted someone to back me up.
[10:06] <rockzman> kane777: thanks try help someone else i'll take kmilo but ty anyway
[10:06] <rockzman> kmilo: look
[10:06] <obscurite> miranda82 - so there you go
[10:06] <variant> miranda82: please explain.. that couldmean a million different things
[10:06] <rockzman> kmilo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[10:07] <rockzman> i made my sources.list this one
[10:07] <variant> miranda82: run fsck is probably a good idea
[10:07] <cjones> joeljkp yes it is
[10:07] <rockzman> and i cant upgrade my ubuntu using gksudo~
[10:07] <obscurite> variant - fsck will destroy his data
[10:07] <C|int> bye bye now :)
[10:07] <miranda82> what does it do?
[10:07] <C|int> yes, a trip to Ibiza, Spain :)
[10:07] <JamesG> Hello.
[10:07] <miranda82> obscurite, the problem
[10:07] <miranda82> obscurite, is that as i showed u, i got hdc4 and hdc5 as the same one...
[10:07] <GazzaK> but I am going on my knowledge of FAT  and FAT32, not other filesytems
[10:08] <variant> obscurite: since when will running a filesystem check destroy data?
[10:08] <TheBigToe> and I restarted x and I'm now using 1280x1024 :D
[10:08] <dooglus> does anyone have experience with 'wondershaper'?  I just ran "sudo wondershaper eth1 5000 5000" to try to limit my upload to 5kb/s, but it's still uploading at 9kb/s.
[10:08] <miranda82> shoul i change both to swap?
[10:08] <obscurite> miranda82 - i think that's just cause it's an extended partition. 4 is like hte parent node of 5? just guessing.
[10:08] <rockzman> kmilo: u still there?
[10:08] <obscurite> miranda82 - yeah, both swap
[10:08] <kmilo> rockzman, sure
[10:08] <obscurite> variant - they aren't even the correct fs types yet
[10:08] <miranda82> obscurite, yeah probably  thx
[10:08] <kmilo> rockzman, what do you need?
[10:08] <JamesG> So.. The company I work for has maybe 20 people running ubuntu on the desktop. We're all doing updates every day, so it seems like hosting our own mirror would be good from a performance and community standpoint. Is there anyone here I can talk to about what it would take to set something like this up?
[10:09] <rockzman> kmilo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 this is my sources.list and i want to know what else i need to do, i want to upgrade to dapper...
[10:09] <rockzman> kmilo: i used gksudo~ command
[10:09] <Zdra> JamesG: apt-proxy
[10:09] <miranda82> obscurite, and i should toggle bootable my first one, right?
[10:09] <obscurite> miranda82 - yes
[10:09] <miranda82> ok
[10:09] <kmilo> rockzman, to dapper?
[10:09] <rockzman> kmilo: yea
[10:10] <miranda82> obscurite, it's done, let me reboot...
[10:10] <miranda82> i cross my fingers..
[10:10] <obscurite> miranda82 - gl. come back
[10:10] <miranda82> thx
[10:10] <Zdra> JamesG: Or if you want a full mirror at your work, uses debmirror
[10:10] <kmilo> rockzman, change breezy for dapper in the sources.list
[10:10] <GazzaK> JamesG, lucky you, I have to support 120 windows xp users :(
[10:10] <rockzman> kmilo: what u mean?
[10:10] <jryer> I have USB headset and although they seem to be automatically recognized by ubuntu, they do not work. Is there something I need to do to get them to work?
[10:10] <rockzman> kmilo: my system now is breezy not dapper yet i want to upgrade
[10:10] <JamesG> Zdra: Full mirror would be more useful, since we do installs all the time
[10:11] <rockzman> kmilo: so i change breezy for Dapper?
[10:11] <Zdra> JamesG: yes but apt-proxy is easier to set up
[10:11] <kmilo> rockzman, yes
[10:11] <JamesG> I guess the question is.. is there an official process I should go through to mirror the entire distro? I don't want to nail one server by downloading gigs and gigs of data without someone knowing about it.
[10:11] <rockzman> kmilo: what name? "Dapper" ?
[10:11] <kmilo> rockzman, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14291
[10:12] <rockzman> kmilo: sure
[10:12] <ericz> hey... awesome shipit is open for ordering dapper
[10:12] <obscurite> variant - it's possible that fsck doesn't care about the partition table in which case you could still do a fsck with a messed up partition table. i don't think fsck would fix a partition table though. if your disk was that screwed up i doubt fsck would help much. what do you think?
[10:12] <GazzaK> JamesG, contact ubuntu direct by email?
[10:12] <j1p> is there any way for video playback to be zoomed in mplayer, when i fullscreen it, the videos window gets bigger, but the actual video stays teh same size
[10:13] <Zdra> JamesG: Here is what I uses for a full mirror for my FAI installations : debmirror --progress --method=ftp --verbose --nosource --passive --arch=i386 --dist=dapper,dapper-security,dapper-updates --section=main,restricted,universe,multiverse --passive --host=ftp.belnet.be --root=/packages/ubuntu/ubuntu /mirror
[10:13] <padonak> good evening mates
[10:13] <JamesG> GazzaK: Well, I thought there might be some official people here :)
[10:13] <padonak> i need a help in one problem
[10:13] <JamesG> Zdra: Ok, thanks. I'll take a note of that.
[10:13] <lerch> What package do I install if I want to be able to handle .rar files?
[10:13] <variant> obscurite: there are a few partition table repair programs that i have used successfuly in the past.. dont remmenber the names though
[10:13] <variant> lerch: unrar
[10:13] <j1p> lerch, unrar
[10:13] <rockzman> kmilo: now what gksudo update-manager -d
[10:13] <aLPHa_LeaK> unrar

[10:37] <GazzaK> did you burn the iso file to the cdr or use a application to make the iso image into a cdr?
[10:37] <mikearthur> thoreauputic: do you know what to do then?
[10:38] <thoreauputic> mikearthur: they use some kind of firmware...
[10:38] <mikearthur> GazzaK: I used K3B
[10:38] <mikearthur> GazzaK: I'm not a noob, I just can't get this CD drive booting
[10:38] <Jason-X> Hold down the c key when booting

[10:38] <mikearthur> thoreauputic: for how long and when?
[10:38] <GazzaK> erm, I'm not sure mikearthur only ever installed an os on one mac, and that was tiger

[10:49] <FeestBijtje> good night every one
[10:50] <miranda82> have a copy for if some day i will be able to recover all my stuff i need?
[10:50] <obscurite> miranda82 - if you manage to dd your data, we can try some more "severe" recovery methods
[10:50] <miranda82> obscurite, the point is that i do not have a 20gigs hdd accessible
[10:50] <padonak> kane77: nad then?
[10:50] <apollo2011> hi everyone
[10:51] <kmilo> miranda82, bad luck :(
[10:51] <padonak> hi
[10:51] <FeestBijtje> hi apollo2011
[10:51] <miranda82> kmilo, yeah i know...
[10:51] <kmilo> miranda82, did you know the partition table?
[10:51] <miranda82> kmilo, yes
[10:51] <miranda82> hdc1 / ext3
[10:52] <miranda82> hdc2 free
[10:52] <miranda82> hdc3 geexbox ext3
[10:52] <miranda82> hdc4 swap
[10:52] <apollo2011> I am using dapper, and I restarted my computer and when it booted up, X started with a message saying that xsession could not write to /tmp and could exit with an error.
[10:53] <obscurite> miranda, did you try fsck.ext3 -b 8193 /dev/hdc1 or fsck.ext3 -b 32768 /dev/hdc1 ?
[10:53] <kmilo> miranda82, did you know the partition table with the exactly size of every partition?
[10:53] <miranda82> kmilo, the size hasn't changed
[10:54] <miranda82> obscurite, both
[10:54] <padonak> kane777: while downloading i have one more question
[10:54] <vbgunz> anyone know of a good email scanning application for Ubuntu, something simple. I would like to extract email addresses from specific folders in my thunderbird account
[10:55] <kane777> padonak, yes
[10:55] <padonak> what and where should i write to start sh script after ubuntu is loaded?
[10:55] <TobiasFar> /dev/hdb7       /media/windows_video    ntfs    	defaults        0       0 <-- that's a line in my fstab but if i try to access the folder it says i don't have permission to do that. what did i make wrong?
[10:55] <dawntracker> hi all, need some help with driver install
[10:55] <t-thing> I just installed mutt and I really like it. And recently vim has become my favourite editor instead of some editors. It would now seem that I won't be using evolution now more. If somebody could just point me out a good commandline calendar app, I'd really appreciate it.
[10:56] <dashriKe> http://rapidshare.de/files/20880413/memtest.txt.html
[10:57] <dawntracker> hello?
[10:57] <padonak> kane777, and that second link you gave me i can't connect to
[10:59] <obscurite> miranda82 - please post fdisk -p and cat /etc/fstab to a pastebin
[10:59] <obscurite> oh nevermind
[10:59] <obscurite> can't see etc
[10:59] <obscurite> duh.
[11:00] <miranda82> do i or not?
[11:00] <kmilo> obscurite, lol
[11:00] <miranda82> btw fdisk -p won't work
[11:00] <kmilo> miranda82, what is in that disk?
[11:00] <dashriKe> http://www.impulze.net/paste/1396/
[11:01] <miranda82> it's fdisk  and then p
[11:01] <miranda82> to print all the table
[11:01] <padonak> kane777: thanks for help, it worked
[11:01] <miranda82> kmilo, loads and years of work
[11:01] <roryy> 'sudo fdisk -l' is a useful alternative
[11:01] <obscurite> miranda, sorry, fdisk -l
[11:01] <miranda82> obscurite, we changed the table
[11:01] <kmilo> miranda82, how old is your brother?
[11:02] <miranda82> kmilo, 17
[11:02] <miranda82> lol
[11:02] <miranda82> kmilo, he'll die young
[11:02] <obscurite> miranda82 - i'm wondering if we can do something with fstab to make grub install
[11:02] <miranda82> www.pastebin.com
[11:02] <kmilo> miranda82, lol
[11:02] <myk> can someone remind me how to view a 2nd HD? something about mounting it i believe
[11:03] <padonak> oh no it didn't
[11:03] <obscurite> miranda82 - i'm guessing he'll be buying you a shiny new USB hard drive
[11:03] <kmilo> myk, primary, slave, master, secundary?
[11:03] <miranda82> obscurite, at this point i only want to recover all my photos and videos
[11:03] <myk> kmilo, primary slave
[11:03] <miranda82> obscurite, http://pastebin.com/727221
[11:04] <kmilo> myk, /dev/hdb
[11:04] <graphyx> I have downloaded the ubuntu VM session to play with ubuntu.  But I can't find a way to get to root.  I have already gone to diagnostic mode and changed the password, but how do I get to a root shell from the GUI?
[11:04] <UKMatt> is the dapper date still set for june 1?
[11:04] <kmilo> myk, filesystem?
[11:04] <myk> ntfs
[11:04] <bimberi> graphyx: 'sudo -i' in a terminal
[11:04] <bimberi> UKMatt: yes
[11:04] <mwe> UKMatt: I think so yes
[11:05] <obscurite> miranda82 - not all of the fdisk changes seem to be there
[11:05] <UKMatt> bimberi, when it does is it just going to be like a normal software upgrade?
[11:05] <miranda82> obscurite, i did not change the rest
[11:05] <miranda82> as they are not important
[11:05] <GaiaX11> How do i install new locales in ubuntu? In debian i just do dpkg-reconfigure locales, but it did not word in ubuntu?
[11:05] <kmilo> myk, sudo mkdir /mnt/winbugs
[11:05] <obscurite> miranda82 - ok
[11:05] <bimberi> UKMatt: you should let update-manager handle it
[11:05] <bimberi> !upgrade
[11:05] <ubotu> hmm... upgrade is Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades . Note command line: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the bleeding edge.
[11:06] <graphyx> bimberi: doesn't work.  Will I have to reboot to get at the visudo to add myself or is there a way to log into a root shell from the gui?
[11:06] <miranda82> obscurite, 2 was free space, 3 was geexbox
[11:06] <kmilo> myk, sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/winbugs
[11:06] <UKMatt> bamberi, i've tried to upgrade twice to dapper twice that way and each time the graphics display doesn't load after i reboot
[11:06] <kmilo> myk, change 1 with your partiton number
[11:06] <myk> kmilo, will that erase the HD?
[11:06] <kmilo> myk, no.
[11:06] <thesaltydog> no more audio, after latest dapper dist-upgrade... Is it a bug?
[11:06] <aLPHa_LeaK> myk, it will just "mount" it
[11:07] <bimberi> graphyx: yes but you need to know either the user p/w (for sudo) or the root p/w (for su), idk how the vm session works, what user account does it use?
[11:07] <myk> kmilo, okay, i've done the ...winbugs part. what next?
[11:07] <mwe> thesaltydog: impoosible to tell without more info. however it would probably just need to get configured
[11:08] <kmilo> myk, the mount
[11:08] <bloekish> evening all :) i just tried to install ubuntu to my usb2 external drive (i let grub install on the MBR of my laptop's internal drive), but when i try to boot the system i get Grub 'error 21'. any ideas appreciated!
[11:08] <graphyx> bimberi: It has a default ubuntu account which it auto logs on.
[11:08] <bimberi> UKMatt: hmmk
[11:08] <graphyx> bimberi: root I had to hack to get into.
[11:08] <dashriKe> anybody help me intepret this?: http://www.impulze.net/paste/1396/
[11:08] <thesaltydog> mwe, ok. I will start investigating. I was just curious to know if it was a known bug..
[11:08] <myk> kmilo, yeah, did that part.
[11:08] <jramsey> anyone know when the us repos will be up again?
[11:08] <bimberi> graphyx: on the livecd the ubuntu account has no password, you can just 'sudo -i' with no password
[11:08] <UKMatt> bimberi, any ideas b/c i've wiped the partition twice afterwards to fix that
[11:09] <mwe> thesaltydog: sound works fine in dapper here.
[11:09] <thesaltydog> mwe, also here. Until this morning, before the upgrade.
[11:09] <bimberi> UKMatt: log into character mode and 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[11:09] <oscar_c2c> hey everyone
[11:09] <graphyx> bimberi that would have been nice, but this is an installed setup.
[11:09] <mwe> thesaltydog: odd. I'd ask in #ubuntu+1 though
[11:09] <kmilo> graphyx, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo?action=show&redirect=EnableRootLogin#head-0ba7534e4fc67b5d07e42de101ae04a3a9ec84ee
[11:09] <UKMatt> bimberi, what is character mode?
[11:10] <kmilo> myk, http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/ch05.html
[11:10] <bimberi> graphyx: ok, sorry, i'm out of ideas then, you'll need the password
[11:10] <ubuntunoob> using dapper and having probs after fresh install....won't let me log into the os after I changed user info
[11:10] <bimberi> UKMatt: ctrl-alt-F1
[11:10] <jwl007> UKMatt, also terminal mode or console mode.. hit Ctrl+F1 or Ctrl+F2
[11:10] <obscurite> miranda82 - we have two separate problems here. one is we can't do a grub install. the other is we can't mount your partitions.
[11:10] <zcat[1] > to get a root shell, sudo -i
[11:10] <oscar_c2c> i wonder something. i need to format my whole disk, and thought maybe a good opportunity to switch to ubuntu completely(without xp)
[11:10] <miranda82> obscurite, repair would be just fine :P
[11:10] <cruel_dog> hi
[11:10] <miranda82> obscurite, yeah i know, but... what could i do?
[11:11] <mwe> bimberi: don't forget to tell people how to get back to X in the same sentence :)
[11:11] <cruel_dog> ni need help to install limewire on my ubuntu linux.
[11:11] <bimberi> mwe: ooh yes, thanks, (D'Oh (s)he's gone)
[11:12] <oscar_c2c> is it possible to install xp (if needed) after installing ubuntu on the whole disk
[11:12] <ubuntunoob> any ubuntu geniuses in here that can help a guy real fast-like?? ;D
[11:12] <wizzlefish> for some reason, I can't hear sounds from within Firefox, but I can hear sounds from XMMS. Why is this?
[11:12] <jramsey> how does one report a problem with open office?
[11:12] <graphyx> wizzlefish: It is possible it is set up to only allow sounds from a single source?
[11:12] <cruel_dog> I cant read mp3s, how could-i?
[11:12] <oscar_c2c> noone knows?
[11:12] <zcat[1] > !mp3
[11:12] <ubotu> rumour has it, mp3 is a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:12] <mwe> jramsey: you suspect a bug?
[11:12] <wizzlefish> graphyx: I'm not sure, but that's what it seems like it's doing - I want to allow sounds from all sources, all the time
[11:13] <wizzlefish> hehe! kbrooks' quit message is funny :)
[11:13] <obscurite> miranda82 - what does mount -t ext3 -o rw /dev/hdc1 /mnt tell you again?
[11:13] <GaiaX11> I am trying to install other locales but when i do dpkg-reconfigure locales, it does not give me the option to install other locales. It just apdate the locales already installed. Any help?
[11:13] <jramsey> mwe, i just updated to latest 2.0 for ubuntu and i've the same problem; it's a word 2000 doc that i imported and when i page thru it, i get to a figure that has a graphic and writer hangs
[11:13] <jramsey> was the same before i updated
[11:13] <myk> kmilo, ooh, groovy. got it workin. thanks :D
[11:13] <mwe> jramsey: report it at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu
[11:14] <miranda82> obscurite, wrong fs type, bad superblock on /dev/hdc1, missing codepage.. etc  and, on dmesg | tail i get: [4298378.880000]  VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev hdc1.
[11:14] <graphyx> Thanks everyone.  I got it to work.
[11:15] <kmilo> myk, ok, now put it in the fstab
[11:15] <wizzlefish> does anybody know how to allow sounds from all sources at all times?
[11:16] <myk> kmilo, fstab?
[11:16] <wizzlefish> I can't hear my beloved Homstar Runner

[11:16] <canibal> Can someone help me play mp3 with Ubuntu please^
[11:17] <GazzaK> !mp3
[11:17] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, totally, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:17] <canibal> Gazzak : Already tried this :(
[11:18] <GazzaK> canibal, is this dapper or breezy?
[11:19] <GazzaK> canibal, have a look at:- http://www.ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=77
[11:19] <wizzlefish> anybody got an idea? please?
[11:20] <canibal> I think its breezy
[11:21] <myk> kmilo, yee haw. thanks :D

[11:24] <wizzlefish> is there one of those exclamation marks for sound settings?
[11:24] <kris3> ubuntu dapper is pretty stable

[11:38] <livingdaylight>  kmilo: packages.ubuntu.com
[11:38] <obscurite> miranda82 - the -S options in mkfs.ext3
[11:39] <Dkt> Cyphir, Still says there aint a folder or file like that. Its strange becayse I found it with -ls
[11:39] <obscurite> miranda82 - reinits your superblocks but leaves the inodes alone. but it can destroy your data
[11:39] <Cyphir> Dkt: try renaming ur WoW folder
[11:39] <Cyphir> Dtk: Without spaces like WorldOfWarcraft
[11:39] <Dkt> Cyphir, How?
[11:39] <miranda82> obscurite, that is what i read on man page
[11:40] <miranda82> obscurite, if i try tomorrow to do a dd into someone's computer
[11:40] <Cyphir> Dkt: cd ~/.wine/drive_c
[11:40] <miranda82> it would be more easy to recover?
[11:40] <livingdaylight> kmilo, where is the kernel?
[11:40] <soundray> livingdaylight: I wouldn't recommend upgrading the kernel by itself. Is dapper an option for you?
[11:40] <Cyphir> Dkt: then mv World of Warcraft WoW i think
[11:40] <obscurite> miranda82 - no, but at least you would have the data more or less as you originally found it
[11:40] <livingdaylight> soundray: is dapper safe?
[11:40] <miranda82> obscurite, should i do it?
[11:40] <graft> dapper is going to be released in a week
[11:41] <graft> it better be safe
[11:41] <obscurite> livingdaylight - i heard that dapper gives you herpes
[11:41] <livingdaylight> soundray: i was going to wait till june
[11:41] <kmilo> livingdaylight, search for linux-image
[11:41] <Cyphir> Dtk: yea that should rename World of Warcraft  to WoW
[11:41] <obscurite> miranda82 - should you do the -S? only if you are ready to lose the data
[11:41] <jhenn> How can I tell which PC of two is better supported under ubuntu?  I googled but didn't find much.
[11:41] <Cyphir> Dtk: cd to drive_c and
[11:41] <graft> dapper is fine
[11:41] <Cyphir> Dtk: mv World of Warcraft WoW
[11:41] <soundray> livingdaylight: I find it all right, but it isn't recommended for production machines, of course.
[11:41] <miranda82> obscurite, i do not know if i am ready to loose all my model pics...
[11:41] <livingdaylight> basically i want to install aver TV DVB-T usb but need at least kernel 2.6.14 or 16 even

[11:50] <livingdaylight> kmilo: i have been to that site, it is a rubbish site, ok?
[11:50] <soundray> livingdaylight: don't be silly here if you want help.
[11:50] <jramsey> cjones, try mplayer-nogui then enter the shell script as stated at ur site
[11:50] <obscurite> livingdaylight - apt-get upgrade gives you the latest breezy kernel. you have to go through a lot to compile your own.
[11:50] <soundray> livingdaylight: upgrade to dapper. Everything else is going to be more trouble.
[11:50] <kmilo> livingdaylight, lol
[11:50] <obscurite> livingdaylight - i agree with soundray. if you reallly want to use breezy and manually compile, here is the wiki page... (looks for it)
[11:50] <Seq> does anybody know if there are any iFolder client packages for ppc
[11:50] <elknof1> hi everybody

[11:57] <Cyphir> gcc thecfile.c -o thecompiliedcfile
[11:58] <obscurite> livingdaylight - um, no. you might have to rescue your computer from a broken config file or something at worst... it's not like dapper has a new ext3 filesystem or weird kernel patches or anything
[11:58] <Shadyman_> wasp_ems: Post a bug report on launchpad.net
[11:58] <soundray> Cyphir: it will take long though. Look at slocate as well
