[12:12] <starface> evening all, i was wondering if someone could help me with a little problem i have ?
[12:12] <soundray> !helpme
[12:12] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you. :)
[12:13] <t-thing> soundray: I noticed that, there's keyboard shortcuts specified just for gnome-terminal.
[12:13] <disk11> anyone know how to update libglib?
[12:13] <kmilo> zack, what are you compiling?
[12:13] <zack> kmilo, i had to patch wine and the configure it
[12:13] <zack> then*
[12:13] <zack> kmilo you think i should reboot and try it then?
[12:14] <starface> my windows partition has gone bust. and ive finally decided to switch to ubuntu completedly. can i mount my ntfs windows partition, (im using ubuntu live cd till i can transfer) and transfer to another smb share?
[12:14] <chisholms> yes python is there but it is missing some parts of it that I need for installing cherrypy
[12:14] <kmilo> zack, it works with gcc 4.0?
[12:14] <zack> kmilo i dont know im new to linux
[12:14] <soundray> starface: you mean just to copy the data off? Sure, that should be possible.
[12:15] <Disorganized> !
[12:15] <ubotu> Disorganized: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:15] <kmilo> zack, look in its readme an webpage
[12:15] <lzap> hello, do we already know what version of kernel, xorg and GNOME will Dapper Drake have?
[12:15] <Shadyman> lzap: Yes.
[12:15] <Shadyman> lzap: Mostly because most of us are running it ;)
[12:15] <lzap> and?
[12:15] <zack> kmilo im on a 64 bit version on ubuntu but i tried this the other day with a different pc with 64 ubuntu and i got past this problem somehow
[12:15] <Shadyman> lzap: Beats me.
[12:15] <starface> ok, ive mounted my ntfs into /home/unbuntu/stuff i can see them but dont think i can write. and i have the smb share open. but its not transfering although i can write files to smb share
[12:16] <Shadyman> lzap: It has the new gnome version
[12:16] <zack> kmilo ill be back in a min
[12:16] <lzap> I read one review: ...An uncluttered desktop of Gnome 2.13.1 is served up by Xorg 6.8.2 ontop of Linux-2.6.12.9....
[12:16] <starface> aha, the ntfs is a read only
[12:16] <lzap> its a bit old!
[12:16] <Shadyman> lzap: Heh, that's a bit old.
[12:16] <lzap> I have Gentoo with xorg7 and kernel .16 - I do not want to downgrade
[12:17] <lzap> so? please tell me, direct me...
[12:17] <starface> soundray, any suggestions?
[12:17] <Shadyman> lzap: you could try #ubuntu+1

[12:17] <knome> Ubuntu isn't about bleeding edge.  It's about presentation.  It's already powerful, make it nice.
[12:18] <chisholms> do you guys know if I can install the python2.4 package for dapper on breezy it is showing that it has the files that are missing in breezy's python package
[12:19] <soundray> starface: you can't write to an NTFS mount. Create an ext3 filesystem somewhere, copy the data to it, and share that.
[12:19] <kmilo> chisholms, yes
[12:20] <disk11> anyone know hot to install a newer version of glib?
[12:20] <Thoma1> So is there a date for Flight 8 yet?
[12:20] <starface> soundray, i can't do that because the ntfs partition is full ish. (well converted to NTFS
[12:20] <chisholms> awesome I'll give it a go thanks kmilo
[12:20] <kmilo> disk11, from source or ubuntu packages?
[12:21] <starface> (can i copy the ntfs to somewhere else?
[12:21] <archvill1> Hello
[12:21] <disk11> kmilo:source, the ubuntu packages are too old for the programs i'm trying to install
[12:21] <kmilo> disk11, and what is the problem?
[12:21] <soundray> starface: that's what I'm suggesting. Get the data off and put it in a decent filesystem.
[12:21] <Archvile> I have a proccess i can't kill with "killall zsnes" or "kill PID"
[12:21] <Archvile> Anything i can do about it ?
[12:21] <Archvile> I can't go to Xwindows without killing it
[12:21] <kmilo> staaka, to an ext3 partition
[12:21] <disk11> kmilo:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=178752
[12:21] <soundray> Archvile: use killall -9 zsnes
[12:22] <kmilo> Archvile, ps aux | grep zsnes
[12:22] <kmilo> Archvile, kill -9 ZSNES_PID
[12:22] <Archvile> nice
[12:22] <Archvile> it worked with -9
[12:22] <Archvile> :D
[12:22] <tc_tyrael> No idea about when we can DL flight 8 then?
[12:22] <Archvile> what does -9 exactly do ?
[12:22] <starface> soundray: this has such a small hard drive too. can i not copy it straight over the network. without copying it to this. (im running ubuntu live)
[12:23] <kmilo> Archvile, man kill
[12:23] <Archvile> well, wait, i'll take a look at man killall
[12:24] <staaka> kmilo?
[12:24] <kmilo> disasm, 2.10 > 2.8
[12:24] <kmilo> staaka, sorry
[12:25] <soundray> starface: you can do anything with an NTFS filesystem that you can do with any other -- except write to it. So, yes, you can copy the data over the network.
[12:25] <starface> soundray: how would i just copy it to somewhere?
[12:25] <sorush20> my dvd writer's buffer isn't seem to be loading fully.. what is going on?
[12:25] <Archville> Can't you write using captive ?
[12:25] <Morimando> hey there. Can someone tell me how i can configure ssh to block an IP after 3 unsuccessful login-attempts for. say 12 hrs?

[12:25] <kmilo> disk11, 2.10 > 2.8
[12:25] <Archville> I read so somewhere
[12:26] <starface> soundray, ive tried copy and pasting it from ntfs > smb share
[12:26] <soundray> starface: ftp? scp? Export it as an smb share?
[12:26] <soundray> starface: so what happened?
[12:26] <disk11> kmilo:yes, but it wont make
[12:26] <elknof1> does anybody knows why i cant see movies on a microsoft network without a pause for buffering after each 15 seconds?
[12:26] <bleaked> question, if i plug in a standard gamepad (non-usb) do i need to do something for the system to detect it?
[12:26] <starface> soundray: didnt begin the transfer process
[12:27] <soundray> starface: this smb share is on another computer, correct? Can you create a file on it?

[12:27] <cruel_dog> !mp3 dont worth ****
[12:27] <ubotu> cruel_dog: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:28] <cruel_dog> !mp3
[12:28] <ubotu> mp3 is probably a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:28] <soundray> starface: you've said that. Just answer my question.

[12:29] <ubotu> ie is, like, totally, Ubuntu Ireland #ubuntu-ie
[12:30] <kmilo> Fuelbottle, how did you mounted?
[12:30] <soundray> Fuelbottle: what happens when you try?
[12:30] <daryl_> Anyone know the best wiki to follow for Internet Explorer?
[12:30] <starface> soundray, yes i can create files on the smb share. (is that the anwser you were looking for?)
[12:30] <soundray> starface, yes. Now, can you drag a single file from the NTFS to the share?
[12:31] <valberg> what should i do when i get this error: jackd -d alsa -r 44100 -n 3 -p2048 --softmode
[12:31] <Morimando> hey there. Can someone tell me how i can configure ssh to block an IP after 3 unsuccessful login-attempts for. say 12 hrs?
[12:31] <valberg> woops
[12:31] <Morimando> sshd i mean
[12:31] <valberg> what should i do when i get this error: lmms: error while loading shared libraries: libsmpeg-0.4.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[12:31] <valberg> there
[12:31] <disk11> kmilo: no, it seems that compling the glib 2.11.0 im trying to compile and install is not overwriting the glib 2.8.6 package/files ubuntu comes with
[12:31] <valberg> this also happens to other programs as well...
[12:31] <starface> soundray, i "can" but it doesent actually transfer. and the transffer box doesent show :(
[12:31] <staaka> kmilo you don't have to be sorry, just toss me a beer
[12:32] <Fuelbottle> I mounted it with etc/fstab.., it didn't happen the first time... It happened maybe 3-4 days after I installed ubuntu(I configured ntfs the first day).. When I start windows, I get a bluescreen flashing an error message for a quarter of a second so I can't read the text
[12:32] <kmilo> staaka, lol
[12:32] <staaka> hehe
[12:33] <soundray> starface: when you try this, do any errors get logged, either in /var/log/syslog or in $HOME/.xsession-errors ?
[12:33] <Fuelbottle> maybe it screwed up on unmount... Is there an fsck for ntfs?
[12:34] <daryl_> Anyone know the best wiki to follow for Internet Explorer?
[12:34] <liquidboy> are the ubuntu repositories down for anyone else?
[12:34] <Fuelbottle> I tried something called ntfsfix, but it didn't help
[12:34] <zelevw> Is there a sound equalizer for totem? thanks
[12:34] <soundray> Fuelbottle: it is unlikely to have anything to do with you mounting the NTFS in ubuntu. There is a package with ntfsprogs:
[12:34] <soundray> !info ntfsprogs
[12:34] <ubotu> ntfsprogs: (tools for doing neat things in NTFS partitions from Linux), section otherosfs, is optional. Version: 1.9.4-2 (breezy), Packaged size: 171 kB, Installed size: 448 kB
[12:35] <starface> aha think i know why
[12:36] <starface> soundray, i think i know why cos its permissions are set to root how do i set it to me. throught terminal?
[12:36] <unix_infidel> are there already prepackged debs for the newer firefox version from an 3rd party repo or something?
[12:36] <Fuelbottle> soundray: I didn't really find anything useful in ntfsprogs, I tried ntfsfix but it didn't help
[12:36] <Flannel> !tell unix_infidel about FF1.5
[12:36] <soundray> starface, do you mean the read permissions on the NTFS?
[12:36] <starface> soundray, yes!
[12:37] <soundray> Fuelbottle: like I say, I don't believe it's anything to do with Ubuntu.
[12:37] <unix_infidel> Flannel: i already know about that.
[12:37] <unix_infidel> i'm wondering if there's anything PREPACKAGED.
[12:37] <unix_infidel> from a 3rd party repo or similar.
[12:37] <soundray> starface, how did you mount the NTFS?
[12:37] <arrick> ok guys I am settign up another ubuntu server, manually partitioning, what partitions do I need to create
[12:37] <starface> soundray, System > admin > drives
[12:37] <oscarello> hi, I have a problem, I have an external hard disk that has 6 gigabytes free and windows tells me that I have them free but ubuntu says that I have the disk full, how should I fix it
[12:38] <graft> how is it mounted in ubuntu, oscarello?
[12:38] <arrick> oscarello, what format?
[12:38] <graft> and what filesystem is on it?
[12:40] <zelevw> Is there a sound equalizer for totem? thanks
[12:40] <oscarello> graft, its mounted as vfat

[12:41] <oscarello> 20 gigs
[12:41] <nixternal> anyone have any network trouble after setting up initng?
[12:41] <soundray> starface, what is your uid? (type id -u in a terminal window)

[12:41] <darkelf> Oi folks
[12:42] <starface> soundray, 1000 ***
[12:42] <mmmiiikkkeee> i was wondering if any one knew an easy way to automaticaly have the trash folder stay below a stecific size(yea i can write a script to do this but if its already done.. well i am lazey.))
[12:42] <soundray> starface: in the terminal, assuming your ntfs is on hda1, type 'sudo mount -o remount,uid=1001 /dev/hda1'
[12:42] <soundray> starface: then test if you can copy files off.
[12:43] <starface> soundray, it is hda1
[12:43] <kingspawn> I am _loving_ the SICP
[12:43] <kingspawn> Thanks to whoever in here pointed me there
[12:44] <soundray> kingspawn: what's that?
[12:44] <kingspawn> http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html
[12:44] <oscarello> can you help me please
[12:45] <starface> soundray, permissions on the ntfs is still wrong
[12:45] <oscarello> I have thsi problem with the hard disk that in linux it says it is full, but it is no
[12:45] <kingspawn> starface: man mount, look for dmask and fmask
[12:45] <ylla> I have a dual monitor set up that I have set up in Xorg.conf, but my second monitor will not come on. Any ideas?
[12:45] <kingspawn> in connection with ntfs, that is.
[12:46] <soundray> starface: where is it mounted to?
[12:46] <starface> what's the ls attribute to view permissions ?
[12:46] <kingspawn> soundray: Oh. I am in #ubuntu. I was _not_ going to talk about the SICP here, sorry.
[12:46] <soundray> starface: -a
[12:46] <arrick> kingspawn, how you ben doing?
[12:46] <starface> /dev/hda1 is mounted /home/ubuntu/stuff
[12:47] <starface> ls -a i dont want it all i want the file permissions?
[12:47] <soundray> kingspawn: I'm very pleased that you did, though ;)
[12:47] <kingspawn> arrick: good, good :)
[12:47] <kingspawn> soundray: hey, if you have use for it, great! its a fantastic read
[12:47] <disk11> does anyone else have any ideas why i cant update glib?
[12:47] <arrick> disk11, repos
[12:47] <kingspawn> arrick: and yourself?
[12:48] <disk11> arrick:you mean update my sources.list?
[12:48] <arrick> kingspawn, doing pretty good, installing another ubuntu server right at the moment
[12:48] <arrick> disk11, yes
[12:48] <soundray> starface: do 'sudo umount /home/ubuntu/stuff ; sudo mount -o fmask=0111,dmask=0000,uid=1001 /dev/hda1 /home/ubuntu/stuff' then try again.
[12:48] <starface> soundray, /home/ubuntu/stuff is file owner and group admin
[12:48] <ylla> Anyone have any idea as to why my monitor wont turn on in a dual monitor setup?
[12:49] <arrick> ylla, no signal
[12:49] <disk11> arrick: do you have any sources in mind that i should add?
[12:49] <saif> this is still not the official channel for dapper?
[12:49] <saif> how come??
[12:49] <arrick> disk11, nope, but thats normally why you wont be able to update stuff
[12:49] <kingspawn> saif: because it hasnt been released
[12:50] <ylla> arrick: Yep, IM trying to see why there is no signal. X.org is set up all right (I think). Didnt work in Fedora or SuSE, either.
[12:50] <disk11> arrick: im trying to update from the source i downloaded
[12:50] <saif> oh, i thought the relase date is april!
[12:50] <starface> soundray, that feels better. ill try coppying
[12:50] <riddlebox> #asterisk
[12:50] <Flannel> saif: usually is.  got pushed back until june 1.
[12:50] <penyaskito> Where could I find A complete sources.list for Breezy?
[12:50] <riddlebox> oops sorry
[12:51] <soundray> saif: because it is not released, perhaps?
[12:51] <arrick> !easysources

[12:51] <penyaskito> thanks, arrick
[12:51] <argpirate> so i just upgraded my ubuntu kernel, and tried to reinstall the nvidia drivers with synaptic, and the nvidia-glx module wants to uninstall all kinds of crazy stuff
[12:52] <argpirate> anyone seen this before?
[12:52] <Thomas_J> (Netsplit Detector) Netsplit between "Leaving. and http://www.layer22.com" - Invincible
[12:52] <ylla> Is it possible to use an integrated vid card and a PCI vid card together for dual monitors in Ubuntu? It works in Windows.
[12:53] <mjr> ylla, probably, if both are supported in X.org
[12:53] <mjr> hand tweaking required
[12:53] <soundray> ylla: it should work. The easiest is probably to run two X servers.
[12:53] <TOR_CNR> hi all
[12:54] <soundray> starface: how are you getting on?
[12:54] <ylla> I have two screens set up, two monitors, two devices, a layout combining the two, but the monitor connected to the integrated card will not turn on.
[12:54] <argpirate> or else, would it be better just to try to compile the nvidia driver manually?
[12:54] <ompaul> !nvidia
[12:54] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[12:54] <ompaul> argpirate, ^^ back a few lines
[12:55] <saif> any ideas where the logfile for mozilla or firefox might be?? it keeps quitting without an error message!
[12:55] <ylla> I need some way to "start up" the integrated card, because its not sending a signal.
[12:55] <argpirate> yeah, ive read that before. i have had the drivers working before
[12:55] <coincoin> hello all
[12:55] <TOR_CNR> I have a problem. I've installed ubuntu and it works fine except for one problem - no net access. I connect via bluetooth & cellphone but the bt drivers are not on the CD it seems. so it turns out I need internet access to get internet access. :P help?
[12:55] <shipto> this is my first time using any linux and it does not seem as horrendous as I thought it would be
[12:55] <soundray> saif: call firefox from a terminal, read the messages there.
[12:55] <kmilo> saif, firefox -safe-mode
[12:55] <argpirate> its after the little kernel bump, if i try to install nvidia-glx it wants to uninstall some strange things
[12:56] <argpirate> like amarok and some video players
[12:56] <starface> grf now smb is giving me jiff about connecting to a share :(
[12:56] <soundray> saif: also check $HOME/.xsession-errors
[12:56] <cjones> how do you create a text file called  in your ~/
[12:56] <Jimmey__> Will LM-Sensors work on all computers, or is it hardware specific? Will it work on a laptop?
[12:56] <Flannel> cjones: mkdir [whatever] , since the server ate your name.
[12:56] <starface> brb
[12:57] <argpirate> mkdir would make  a dir, not a text file
[12:57] <ompaul> argpirate, that is the first time I have seen that, are you sure that they are not just upgrades?
[12:57] <argpirate> yeah it says "to be removed"
[12:57] <cjones> i need to create a text file called wmamp3 in your ~/
[12:57] <soundray> Jimmey__: lm-sensors uses a program (sensors-detect) to pick and install modules that fit your system. It works on laptops, too.
[12:57] <saif> from the terminal it says, gdk window unexpectedly destroyed, segmentation fault!
[12:57] <cjones> flannel create a text file called wmamp3 in your ~/
[12:57] <soundray> Jimmey__: that's not a promise though.
[12:57] <saif> the same error with mozilla and firefox!
[12:58] <argpirate> if i try to do a command line apt-get install nvidia-glx it has some other strange error about missing libglu1
[12:58] <Flannel> cjones: a text file? ok.  "touch ~/wmamp3" would be the command.
[12:58] <Jimmey__> soundray, I've installed all the necessary packages ( I think ) to get this desklet to work - It's just...Not
[12:58] <kmilo> saif, what error?
[12:58] <kmilo> saif, how did you install firefox?
[12:58] <soundray> saif: move your config directories to a safe place, and start from a clean slate.
[12:58] <coincoin> does anyone knows how to tell gnome tu consider ONLY the real file type (MIME) and not at all the extension
[12:58] <kmilo> saif, config directories = ~/.mozilla
[12:58] <zack> i have build essentials installed but when i try "./configure" i get a error that states "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables"
[12:59] <ompaul> argpirate, did you try some application to help your install?
[12:59] <t-thing> Can I move windows from keyboard?
[12:59] <saif> i installed firefox from synaptic
[12:59] <saif> from the reps!
[12:59] <argpirate> i tried synaptic of course
[12:59] <argpirate> but other than that no
[12:59] <saif> will try that config directories!
[12:59] <kmilo> zack, welcome back
[12:59] <ompaul> argpirate, are you using dapper?

[01:01] <soundray> zack: either unpack your sources again in a subdirectory in your home directory, or try 'sudo ./configure'
[01:01] <ompaul> zack, to write (create) a file in your homedirectory do this start a terminal (applications accessories terminal) and then type >>touch filename<< that will tell you if you have lost permissions

[01:19] <duneatreides> but i'm getting this error that I don't understand
[01:19] <chicken_Fire> I am just curious if it starts for you...
[01:19] <Kyral> duneatreides: why are you compiling it
[01:19] <kmilo> nry, the 0.99.4 version is in dapper so you have to
[01:19] <duneatreides> is says configure error: no acceptable C compiler found in $path
[01:19] <ompaul> vlad, I'm being paranoid :-)
[01:20] <Kyral> duneatreides: have you seen anything I have said?
[01:20] <tritium> duneatreides: any not simply apt-get install gnomebaker?
[01:20] <tritium> s/any/why
[01:20] <duneatreides> Kyral, i'm new to Linux, and I want to give it a shot
[01:20] <Kyral> duneatreides: good enough answer :D
[01:20] <duneatreides> sorry about the delayed reponse
[01:20] <antics> does anyone know of a good guide for securing (ssh) gnome remote desktop?
[01:20] <tritium> duneatreides: you've installed build-essential?
[01:20] <Kyral> duneatreides: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:21] <Kyral> and watch configure output to see what else you may need
[01:21] <nry> Kmilo, ok all is doing well but xine told me that my dvd is encrypted
[01:21] <vlad> ompaul, you know how to copy stuff from xterm ?
[01:21] <djm62> :)
[01:21] <Kyral> duneatreides: best way to find depends for an app is tto keep running the ./configure and installing what it says it misses
[01:21] <kmilo> vlad, with the mouse?
[01:21] <vlad> kmilo, highlight, then what?
[01:21] <tritium> vlad: highlight it, and then middle-button pastes
[01:21] <fernando_rio> How can i get to Ubuntu-Br

[01:23] <Epic-> Is there anything specific I need to do to get the "natilus cd burner" to burn an ISO as an ISO rather than a single file?
[01:23] <Epic-> Or is that not possible?
[01:23] <Kyral> Epic-: it does burn it the "right way"
[01:23] <zack> im using ubuntu 64 im trying to complile wine-0.9.12 but when i type "./configure" this is the error i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14305
[01:24] <vlad> ompault: i searched google and everyone said to chown the ~./ICauthority file but that didn't help
[01:24] <kmilo> Epic-, copy it an paste it in burn:///
[01:24] <ompaul> vlad, your trying to connect to a other box - which does not support the connection protocol - given what it is I doubt that it supports much
[01:24] <nry> Kmilo, it told me that I need to install libdvdcss
[01:24] <duneatreides> what is GLIB
[01:25] <kmilo> nry, did you know how to install it?
[01:25] <vlad> ompaul, this is the local machine, and last time i rebooted i could start gnome-session from the graphical login just fine
[01:25] <Kyral> duneatreides: since you want to learn, I won' give you outright answers (and I ask that no one else does :P)
[01:25] <BockBilbo> hello
[01:25] <duneatreides> gee, thank you
[01:25] <kmilo> duneatreides, google it

[01:25] <chicken_Fire> zack: http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-install-basic-compilers-build-essential
[01:25] <Kyral> duneatreides: I will point you in the right direction
[01:25] <ompaul> vlad, its talking about sco openserver (or as I and my mates call it open death trap)
[01:25] <nry> Kmilo, no man
[01:25] <duneatreides> the Gimp tool kit?
[01:26] <Kyral> duneatreides: tthere is a difference between giving the answers and giving hints :P
[01:26] <nry> Kmilo, tell me pls
[01:26] <Kyral> duneatreides: thats GTK
[01:26] <vlad> ompaul, i have no idea what that is, i'm just trying to log in locally to this machine right in front of me
[01:26] <kmilo> duneatreides, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glib
[01:26] <ompaul> perhaps but you pasted this _IceTransSCOOpenServer: Protocol is not supported by a SCO connection
[01:26] <Kyral> duneatreides: apt-cache search glib and choose the -dev package
[01:26] <kmilo> nry, ok

[01:26] <ompaul> vlad, do this lsb_release -d please
[01:27] <cjones> how do i create a text file called wmamp3 in your ~/
[01:27] <duneatreides> i googled glib, and the gtk+ page was the first page

[01:27] <duneatreides> what is the -dev pakage? does it refer to developers?

[01:28] <Kyral> duneatreides: it contains the parts of the library needed for compiling from them
[01:28] <zack> im using ubuntu 64 and i have downloaded the build essentials package. im trying to complile wine-0.9.12 but when i type "./configure" this is the error i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14305
[01:28] <Kyral> duneatreides: as opposed tot the "object" files
[01:28] <cjones> thank you
[01:28] <Kyral> duneatreides: if you coded in C or C++ this would be easier to explain :P
[01:28] <ompaul> vlad, and you don't have gdm running at the moment?
[01:28] <tritium> zack: wine is also available from repositories, both ubuntu and winehq.com
[01:28] <vlad> ompaul, i do have gdm running
[01:29] <vlad> ompaul, but i can't get gnome-session to work nor can i get gnome-session to start up when i log in from the graphical prompt in the beginning
[01:29] <zack> tritium i have to install it manually because i had to apply a patch so i can play world of warcraft
[01:29] <ylla> Is there a way to turn on an integrated video card?
[01:29] <tritium> zack: oh, ok
[01:29] <Kyral> WoW is evil
[01:29] <vlad> ompaul,  x does start though, and i'm using icewm right now but would like to get gnome working again
[01:29] <Kyral> it will suck your life away
[01:29] <ompaul> vlad, so lets try to get it to do something smart >> sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm << and see how it goes
[01:29] <vlad> Kyral, i second that
[01:30] <vlad> ompaul, ok
[01:30] <Kyral> I'm not gonna help him now just to save his soul :P
[01:30] <vlad> ompaul, ok it went through, now trying gnome-session again?

[01:30] <vlad> ompaul, what is says i have to end all x sessions
[01:30] <eagleye> I cant get macromedia flash player to work.. Can anyone help me out.. ?
[01:31] <vlad> ompaul, Changes will take effect when all current X sessions have ended.
[01:31] <ompaul> vlad, before you enter your name do click on the word session just below where you put enter your name
[01:31] <vlad> ompaul, what kind of session to select?
[01:31] <ompaul> just make sure that points to gnome, and also do this ctrl+alt+backspace that restarts gdm
[01:31] <cjones> could some please take a look at this and tell me what i did wrong ?  http://pastebin.com/727416
[01:32] <nry> Kmilo, yes I know----but where can I found it
[01:32] <ompaul> vlad,  just make sure that the session points to gnome, and also do this ctrl+alt+backspace that restarts gdm
[01:32] <kmilo> nry, but in the wikipedia i found this: ftp://cipherfunk.org/pub/packages/ubuntu/pool/main/libd/libdvdcss/libdvdcss2_1.2.8-1unofficialubuntu3_i386.deb
[01:32] <vlad> ompaul, ok will that boot from from xirc?
[01:32] <vlad> ompaul, er Xchat
[01:32] <ompaul> vlad, that restarts X
[01:32] <vlad> ompaul, right, so all of these windows will die right
[01:32] <kmilo> nry, download it and run sudo dpkg -i libdvdcss2_1.2.8-1unofficialubuntu3_i386.deb
[01:33] <Armagguedes> hey
[01:33] <ompaul> vlad,  yes so close any work you have open
[01:33] <Armagguedes> hello
[01:33] <cruel_dog> hi
[01:33] <EruditeHermit> hey, can anyone help me set up wireless with bcm43xx?
[01:33] <nry> Kmilo, ok
[01:33] <vlad> ompaul, ok, i'm doing it
[01:33] <Armagguedes> where the hell is /etc/filesystems files in ubuntu?
[01:33] <Kyral> uhh
[01:33] <Kyral> what kinda file is that?
[01:34] <kaan> any advice for a routing software?? for ubuntu
[01:34] <ompaul> Armagguedes, we don't have one, what functionality do you want
[01:34] <Kyral> neither does ArchLinux for the record :P
[01:35] <Armagguedes> ompaul i want to do COMMENT # in here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=442213&highlight=dvd+filesystem
[01:35] <Armagguedes> #4
[01:35] <Armagguedes> i want to add a filesystem
[01:35] <Kyral> Armagguedes: what are you trying to do?
[01:35] <Kyral> Armagguedes: to what?
[01:35] <Armagguedes> i have the same problem that y has
[01:35] <Armagguedes> Kyral http://www.ubuntuforums.org/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=1013764
[01:35] <Armagguedes> that's my problem
[01:36] <Armagguedes> that sounds like what the LQ guy has
[01:36] <Kyral> Armagguedes: I'm too lazy to click the damn link and Irssi won't even open it to begin with, so just tell me :P
[01:36] <Kyral> I do apologize for being rude, but it has been a very long day
[01:36] <Armagguedes> Kyral basically i can't mound udf/iso9660+joliet data dvds
[01:37] <arrick> Armagguedes, do you have a dvd rom?
[01:37] <Kyral> Armagguedes: now thats odd. Are they encrypted?
[01:37] <vlad> damn, it didn't work
[01:38] <ompaul> vlad, go to a terminal and do this >>sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop<< cos it should be there - but lets check
[01:38] <nry> Kmilo, it works man......respect for all
[01:38] <Armagguedes> Kyral no
[01:38] <Armagguedes> arrick yes
[01:39] <eagleye> I cant get macromedia flash player to work.. Can anyone help me out.. ?
[01:39] <Kyral> Armagguedes: whats the error?
[01:39] <Kyral> when you mount it
[01:39] <Armagguedes> read my ubuntuforums post
[01:39] <Kyral> !flash
[01:39] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[01:39] <vlad> ompaul, says it's already at newest version
[01:39] <Armagguedes> Kyral doesnt mount them
[01:39] <Armagguedes> RTFP
[01:39] <Armagguedes> RTFPost if you will
[01:39] <ompaul> Armagguedes, DONT
[01:39] <ompaul> do that
[01:39] <Armagguedes> do what?
[01:40] <Kyral> I already told you that Irssi won't open the link from this terminal window and I haven't installed a cross terminal clipboard thing so in order to "RTFP" i'd have to punch in that URL by HAND
[01:40] <ompaul> tell anyone who is willing to help you to RT* anything not in this channel, second up - your url demands that a person be signed into the forums
[01:40] <Armagguedes> oh ok
[01:40] <Armagguedes> right, sorry
[01:40] <ompaul> k
[01:40] <kmilo> nry, :)
[01:40] <Armagguedes> Kyral what if i pm you my post?
[01:40] <Kyral> ompaul: Let him...if I go into BOFH mode its his own fault :P
[01:41] <Kyral> Armagguedes: just tell me waht mount says when you try to mount a DVD
[01:41] <nry> Kmilo, how can I put my trash can in the desktop
[01:41] <ompaul> Armagguedes, no what you do is you put the info in paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[01:41] <kmilo> nry, ubuntu don't have libdvdcss becouse patent problems
[01:41] <Kyral> you can blame the MPAA and RIAA :P
[01:42] <Armagguedes> Kyral Could not mount device.
[01:42] <Armagguedes> The reported error was:
[01:42] <Armagguedes> mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
[01:42] <Armagguedes> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
[01:42] <Armagguedes> missing codepage or other error
[01:42] <Armagguedes> In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[01:42] <Armagguedes> dmesg | tail or so
[01:42] <ompaul> DONT PASTE
[01:42] <Kyral> ...
[01:42] <Kyral> the first two lines were sufficient
[01:42] <Kyral> Okay
[01:42] <Kyral> first problem
[01:42] <Kyral> your /etc/fstab is saying this tthing is Read-Write
[01:42] <Kyral> thats NOT write
[01:42] <Kyral> err
[01:42] <Kyral> right
[01:43] <vlad> ompaul, any other ideas?
[01:43] <Kyral> second thing, try changing the line in /etc/fstab relating to /dev/hdc's filesystem to "auto"
[01:43] <vlad> ompaul, ok thanks anyway
[01:44] <Epic-> kmilo, Kyral, didnt burn it correctly. not a bootable iso. I will be back later
[01:44] <Armagguedes> Kyral replace "noauto" to "auto" ?
[01:45] <elknof1> does somebydy have a well configured ATI?
[01:45] <Kyral> no no not hat part
[01:45] <ompaul> !ati
[01:45] <ubotu> from memory, ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[01:45] <Kyral> Armagguedes: no, the part that says "iso<whatever>" or "udf"
[01:45] <dylan_> anybody ever heard of a server being up for 7 years?
[01:45] <Kyral> dylan_: yes
[01:45] <ompaul> dylan_, 5 is the most I have seen
[01:45] <Kyral> or rather it wouldn't surprise me
[01:46] <dylan_> Kyral, my friends claim to have a windows 2k server up for 7.5 years
[01:46] <duneatreides> how do you unpack a tar.gz?
[01:46] <Kyral> okay the fact that its a Windows server is surprising
[01:46] <Kyral> duneatreides: tar -zxvf <filename>
[01:46] <duneatreides> or untar it?
[01:46] <ompaul> dylan_, that I would not believe
[01:46] <Armagguedes> Kyral it had "udf,iso9660". changed for "auto"
[01:46] <dylan_> ompaul, why?
[01:46] <duneatreides> thank you Kyral
[01:46] <Armagguedes> now what?
[01:47] <Kyral> Armagguedes: save it and ttry to mount it?
[01:47] <JamesG> Well, I guess the topic answers that question.
[01:47] <dylan_> Why is Firefox so damn slow compared to IE?
[01:47] <kmilo> nry,  right click in the desktop -> create link ->command -> nautilus trash:
[01:47] <ompaul> dylan_, that would mean it is up since the start of 99 but also, it must not be doing any real work
[01:48] <kmilo> dylan_, ?
[01:48] <ompaul> dylan_, I have seen two boxes that died in their 5th year the hard drive just walked
[01:48] <Tuzlo> how do I stop/start apache2?
[01:49] <Armagguedes> WOOWOO
[01:49] <ompaul> Tuzlo, /etc/init.d/apache2 stop / start as required its that simple
[01:49] <Armagguedes> tks Kyral
[01:49] <Kyral> mp
[01:49] <Kyral> np
[01:49] <Armagguedes> btw ompaul Kyral sorry for all the fockups back there (pasting, etc)

[01:50] <Tuzlo> im logged in as root
[01:50] <ompaul> Tuzlo, you are in a terminal I take it
[01:51] <ompaul> Tuzlo, you don't need to be that is just not required
[01:51] <Tuzlo> yes
[01:51] <ompaul> !root
[01:51] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[01:51] <ompaul> Tuzlo, have a look at that
[01:52] <ompaul>  /etc/init.d/apache2 stop   << what does that return to you
[01:52] <Tuzlo> a help menu
[01:52] <ompaul> Tuzlo, your not in a terminal then
[01:52] <ompaul> Tuzlo, Applications Accessories Terminal
[01:53] <Tuzlo> im ssh'd over to the ubuntu box, and su'd to root
[01:53] <ompaul> and you get a menu -- sorry that does not make sense
[01:53] <Tuzlo> my point
[01:53] <zack> YES!!!!!!! i figured it out!!!!! i did need 32 bit libraries to compile wine on 64 bit ubuntu!!!! "sudo apt-get install ia32-libs*" did the trick!
[01:53] <citoyen> Cheers. I can't make gxine work with win32codecs in Breezy. gxine and win32codecs are installed, gxine is pointing to the right directory too, and the codecs are working in vlc. Any tips?

[01:53] <citoyen> I just get the "no demuxer found" error message

[01:54] <nry> Kmilo, I dont have a "create link" in my menu when rightclicked

[01:59] <nry> Kmilo, create folder, launcher, document
[01:59] <phenom> How can I get my Windows partition to show up in Ubuntu?
[01:59] <Armagguedes> ompaul k tks
[02:00] <cpcgm> phenom: http://ubuntuguide.org/#windows
[02:00] <lowfi> !ntfs
[02:00] <ubotu> ntfs is probably the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[02:00] <kmilo> nry, launcher
[02:01] <ompaul> Armagguedes, I would do it more like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14309
[02:01] <ompaul> !ubuntuguide
[02:01] <ubotu> rumour has it, 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.
[02:01] <ompaul> cpcgm, ^^^^^ please don't suggest that to anyone thanks, look up a few lines
[02:01] <cpcgm> ok, sorry
[02:03] <nry> Kmilo, ok man it works thanks again
[02:03] <kmilo> nry, ok
[02:03] <Armagguedes> ompaul can i add this to the end of my/your post?: [Credits to ompaul @ #ubuntu, for editing this post to make it clearer and with more info.] 
[02:04] <ompaul> Armagguedes, I don't need credits (unless you feel you have to :-)))))

[02:12] <Armagguedes> how long till eft gets ready for use?
[02:12] <Armagguedes> i was on dapper on Flight 4 or smt
[02:12] <Armagguedes> it was pretty usable by then
[02:12] <nathansnook> How do I reset the root password
[02:12] <[nige] > nathansnook,  sudo -s passwd root
[02:12] <ompaul> watson540, wget URL << that works
[02:13] <nathansnook> I just installed ubuntu and It never had me set the root password
[02:13] <watson540> ompaul: ok
[02:13] <Flannel> ompaul: I can't get that to play.
[02:13] <ompaul> Armagguedes, who knows it ain't started
[02:14] <ompaul> Flannel, it should work out of the box on dapper just do >> wget url << and fire up totem and point it at the file
[02:14] <ompaul> Flannel, and breezy and warty and hoary
[02:14] <Flannel> ompaul: I have no audio on ubuntu, I can't get it to work on windows.  And yes, I have ogg support.
[02:14] <Armagguedes> hm yeah i know, but i was told that breezy's F4 was usable as well
[02:14] <ompaul> Flannel, don't know what I was thinking
[02:14] <Armagguedes> though i can be mixing stuff
[02:14] <obscurite> sorry, got disconnected.
[02:15] <nathansnook> <ompaul  .>  I tried your command and it told me that the password was incorrect
[02:15] <ompaul> Flannel, what audio have you got?
[02:15] <Flannel> ompaul: my ubuntu is limited to ssh ;)
[02:15] <ompaul> Flannel, get a live CD boot mount the ntfs to read it and play it there? ;-)
[02:15] <Flannel> ompaul: Im ON windows.  ssh'd to ubuntu ;)
[02:16] <meheren> if i upgrade to dapper will flash java firefox (1.5.x) thunderbird all still work?
[02:16] <ompaul> Flannel, I said get the live cd :-) ... ehh windows don't know much about it been using this as my primary o/s for years
[02:16] <meheren> windows has ssh!?!?
[02:16] <ompaul> meheren, putty
[02:16] <meheren> ah
[02:17] <ompaul> meheren, depends on how you installed it, it should but its an upgrade ...
[02:18] <meheren> obviously i installed firefox manually and i compiled flash and java from source... and i believe i simply did an apt-get for thunderbird
[02:18] <Nrbelex> Hi, is it possible to create a link from a file or folder in an external hard drive?
[02:18] <ompaul> Nrbelex, bad idea for something that might not be there all the time
[02:19] <Nrbelex> But I'm almost out of room on the internal, ompaul
[02:19] <meheren> nrebelex, it is hoever possible
[02:19] <meheren> *however
[02:19] <Nrbelex> meheren, how does one do so?
[02:19] <ompaul> Nrbelex, okay, let me restate that, you can save data on it you can mount it leave it out and have it in FS tab and your going to have problems
[02:20] <meheren> are you runnin gnome?
[02:20] <Nrbelex> ompaul, not sure what that means
[02:20] <Nrbelex> meheren, indeed
[02:20] <ompaul> Nrbelex, that was even worse .. mkdir /mnt/outside disk
[02:20] <meheren> under kde drag fiel to somewhere and when the little window comes up click create link
[02:20] <meheren> or do you want to make and lias to the whole drive?
[02:20] <Nrbelex> I'm on gnome
[02:20] <meheren> *alias
[02:21] <meheren> ah
[02:21] <Nrbelex> A folder in the drive
[02:21] <meheren> well im not all that familair with gnome...
[02:21] <Nrbelex> This is actually for a web server
[02:21] <desconocido> hooooooooooolaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[02:21] <meheren> right click? menu tell you anything?
[02:21] <Nrbelex> with limited internal space

[02:21] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[02:21] <Nrbelex> Yea,"Make Link" but then I get an error
[02:22] <ompaul> Nrbelex, sudo mkdir /outside disk
[02:22] <ompaul> Nrbelex, sudo mkdir /outside
[02:22] <Nrbelex> "Operation not permitted"
[02:22] <meheren>  if i upgrade to dapper will flash, java, firefox (1.5.x), thunderbird all still work? i have everything installed form source i believe except for thunderbird which came with the install
[02:22] <ompaul> Nrbelex, then System Administration Disks and make it mount
[02:22] <meheren> Nrbelex, hmmm
[02:22] <meheren> what does error say?
[02:22] <sciborg> what is the channel for dapper?
[02:22] <ompaul> Nrbelex, that will set it up today
[02:23] <ompaul> !dapper
[02:23] <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
[02:23] <meheren> ubuntu+1 is chan for dapper
[02:23] <meheren> lol
[02:23] <meheren> never mind then
[02:23] <sciborg> thanks
[02:23] <sciborg> bye
[02:23] <Nrbelex> Where is System Administration Disks, ompaul?
[02:23] <kaan> Is IPsec possible in Ubuntu?
[02:23] <Nrbelex> oh wait
[02:23] <ompaul> Nrbelex, three menu functions
[02:23] <meheren> no system admin, disks
[02:23] <Nrbelex> ompaul, I didn't realize those were the menus
[02:23] <desconocido> a quien le gusta eslipknot en  el canal
[02:23] <meheren> yeh
[02:23] <ompaul> Nrbelex, its not permenant
[02:24] <Nrbelex> ok, thanks
[02:24] <ompaul> Nrbelex, if you say that disk is there and it gets unpluged your machine will through a hissy fit
[02:24] <meheren> yep
[02:24] <meheren> if possible just leave in pluged in and mounted all the time
[02:24] <ompaul> Nrbelex, so for that little step you could move older data off the machine and anything essential and look at getting a bigger internal drive
[02:25] <desconocido> hola ompaul
[02:25] <ompaul> meheren, you know it will be moved
[02:25] <meheren> ah i overlook so many things
[02:25] <ompaul> desconocido, speak english or       >>>/join #ubuntu-es<< okay?
[02:25] <meheren> what does es stand for?
[02:25] <ompaul> spanish
[02:25] <meheren> ah
[02:26] <EruditeHermit> hey, can anyone help me to get mp3s to work? I can play them using mpg321 but not with amarok
[02:26] <meheren> i hate amorak
[02:26] <Nrbelex> ompaul, is there any more permanent solution?
[02:26] <Mattbds> hi
[02:26] <meheren> don't ask i just love mplayer and xine...
[02:26] <EruditeHermit> doesn't work with rhythmbox either
[02:26] <Mattbds> mplayer!
[02:27] <meheren> mp3's should work with many thigns...
[02:27] <Mattbds> so all you guys here use ubuntu?
[02:27] <meheren> duh
[02:27] <ompaul> Nrbelex, yes tell me when you have that done - if the disk does not work your going to have problems starting nasty ones
[02:27] <meheren> !restrcited fromats
[02:27] <ubotu> meheren: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:27] <Mattbds> i tried ubuntu but now i am on suse
[02:27] <meheren> ah
[02:27] <kmilo> Mattbds, sure
[02:27] <burnout39> does anyone know what to run .bin file in?
[02:27] <meheren> !restricted fromats
[02:27] <ubotu> meheren: My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:27] <kmilo> burnout39, what .bin?
[02:27] <meheren> htf you spell it?!?!?
[02:28] <Nrbelex> ompaul, if its that risky, I think I'll take a rain check because even the external isn't very big itself.
[02:28] <meheren> burnout onpen turm and run .bin fiel form term
[02:28] <orbin> !restricted
[02:28] <ubotu> I heard restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[02:28] <orbin> :P
[02:28] <meheren> thank you lol
[02:28] <ompaul> Nrbelex, you can use the method I showed you, when you boot the box
[02:28] <pike_> wow xubuntu-dapper's really come a long way last two months
[02:28] <meheren> well look there for your mp3 problem
[02:29] <ompaul> Nrbelex, back material up from it
[02:29] <meheren> pike_, yep :P
[02:29] <orbin> pike_: new xfce?  what improvements exactly if not that?
[02:29] <burnout39> kimilo, its for java i have to download it manually but its a bin file and it doesnt have a default program that it will start up in
[02:29] <Nrbelex> ompaul, ok, thanks, I'll figure out some way to do some space-saving
[02:30] <pike_> everything just works and feels more polished
[02:30] <|mp|>  is there an easy way to disable an IrDA?
[02:30] <pike_> except my orinoco card on 686 kernel...
[02:30] <|H-raf|> how to upgrade gnome to 2.14 version im in breezy ?
[02:30] <kmilo> burnout39, dapper have sun's java
[02:30] <duneatreides> hello everybody
[02:31] <Mattbds> hi duneatreides
[02:31] <Mattbds> nice nickname
[02:31] <orbin> |H-raf|: i'd just wait for dapper imo
[02:31] <duneatreides> thank you Mattbds
[02:31] <Mattbds> i really liked that series of books
[02:31] <ompaul> Nrbelex, the reason is this that if you make that link when the disk is not there then you have to manually remove it from /etc/fstab but if your not used to doing stuff like dropping to single user mode its not plesant (I remember having to do it myself the first time I made a bad mistake many years ago)
[02:31] <duneatreides> it is awesome
[02:31] <ompaul> doh^2
[02:31] <burnout39> kmilo, i have breezy
[02:31] <duneatreides> if you see duneatreides, chances are it is me
[02:32] <duneatreides> anyway, how do you burn an iso image?
[02:32] <meheren> if i upgrade to dapper form breezy will java, flash firefox(1.5.x), and thunderbird still work...?
[02:32] <meheren> i intstalled everything from source as far as i could except thunderbird which came with base system
[02:32] <meheren> and firefox i downloaded form mozilla site
[02:32] <Mattbds> you have to use an iso burner
[02:32] <|H-raf|> orbin no i dont want dapper i want breezy budger and gnome 2.14 =)
[02:32] <kmilo> burnout39, sudo sh nonfreejava.bin
[02:32] <Mattbds> dont just burn the iso to your cd that doesnt work
[02:32] <duneatreides> i look up the wiki, follewed the intructions, and I keep on getting "Please enter black cd disk"
[02:33] <ompaul> duneatreides,  click on places - take the one with home on it - navigate to the iso file and then right click and choose burn to disk
[02:33] <burnout39> kmilo, i will try that
[02:33] <Mattbds> if you have linux already you can use k3b to burn iso image....
[02:33] <ompaul> duneatreides, lower speed is better
[02:33] <Mattbds> or download the windows xp plugin and use that
[02:33] <Mattbds> and yes slower is better
[02:34] <duneatreides> i have breasy badger
[02:34] <ompaul> duneatreides, then the method i discribed will work
[02:34] <duneatreides> but I tried the lower speed, but when I choose "file image", it chooses maximum speed
[02:35] <|H-raf|> orbin no i dont want dapper i want breezy budger and gnome 2.14 =)
[02:35] <Anderson> Hello, can someone help me with something?
[02:35] <mish4> hey have any of you had a problem with synaptic, where it told you that it cant make a directory for its configuration files
[02:35] <Mattbds> well you gone past me then, i usually just use k3b and click burn iso image and thats it
[02:35] <orbin> |H-raf|: yeah, i heard you the first time...
[02:35] <mish4> my snaptic wont run
[02:35] <ompaul> |H-raf|, that is just not a sensible option, too much of ubuntu hangs off gnome just upgrade if you really want that
[02:35] <orbin> Anderson: don't ask to ask :P
[02:35] <burnout39> kmilo, i was suppose to run it in a terminal right?
[02:36] <kmilo> burnout39, yes
[02:36] <orbin> mish4: what's the exact error?
[02:36] <Anderson> I downloaded a program called ide-smart to monitor the SMART errors from my hard drive. I installed the make package on my machine and ran make, everything was ok. When I ran make install as the root, I got an error that says install: cannot run strip: No such file or director
[02:36] <desconocido> que  onda randol
[02:36] <burnout39> kmilo, it said that there is no such file or directory
[02:36] <kmilo> burnout39, where is your .bin?
[02:36] <mish4> orbin: i dont have exact cause im not in linux now. but it said error cannot make configuration directory in /root/.synaptic
[02:36] <|H-raf|> ompaul so the problem how ti upgrade
[02:37] <|H-raf|> ompaul so the problem how tioupgrade
[02:37] <|H-raf|> ompaul so the problem how to upgrade
[02:37] <burnout39> kmilo, what u mean where is it
[02:37] <spikeb> HEH
[02:37] <orbin> heh
[02:37] <mish4> orb?
[02:37] <mish4> i also tried reinstalling synaptic using apt-get remove and apt-get install but that didnt help
[02:38] <kmilo> burnout39, i which folder?
[02:38] <kmilo> *in
[02:38] <orbin> mish4: never heard of that error....sorry.  but next time you're in ubuntu, copy it down
[02:39] <burnout39> kmilo, it in a folder i made in my home folder
[02:39] <duneatreides> how do I get my cd burner to work in Ubuntu? it works in M$
[02:39] <Anderson> Anyone have any suggestions?
[02:39] <orbin> Anderson: are you aware of the smartmontools package in the repos?
[02:39] <kmilo> burnout39, sudo sh yourfolder/nonfreejava.bin
[02:39] <Anderson> No.
[02:40] <orbin> duneatreides: define not working
[02:40] <burnout39> kmilo, k
[02:40] <Anderson> Hey teufel, Semper Fi?
[02:40] <ompaul> !tell |H-raf| about dapper
[02:40] <orbin> Anderson: might be worth a look...but if you're insistent on installing the ide thing.  pastebin the error output
[02:40] <teufel> no, not a marine
[02:40] <teufel> Sorry to disappoint
[02:40] <ompaul> !tell |H-raf|  about upgrade
[02:40] <Anderson> What's pastebin?
[02:40] <ompaul> !pastebin
[02:40] <ubotu> hmm... 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
[02:41] <ompaul> |H-raf|, read the messages from the bot thanks
[02:41] <duneatreides> orbin, i'm new at linux, how do I fix define?
[02:41] <sagarp> i cant get the java media framework installed...i put the JMF folder in /opt and added the path lines in /etc/profile...is that right?
[02:41] <orbin> duneatreides: i meant describe what's not working :)
[02:41] <Anderson> !pastebin returns command not found.
[02:41] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Anderson
[02:41] <duneatreides> oh, that
[02:41] <duneatreides> sorry
[02:41] <Mattbds> duneatreides can you describe how your burner is not working
[02:41] <orbin> !not working
[02:41] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day?  Does it want more money?  Is it on IRC all the time?  Please be specific!  Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[02:42] <ompaul> !pastebin
[02:42] <ubotu> well, 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
[02:42] <burnout39> kmilo, it still cant find it
[02:42] <ompaul> duneatreides, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^6
[02:42] <pike_> duneatreides: if you are looking for a nero like app try installing k3b
[02:42] <duneatreides> well, when I try to burn a data cd, it keeps on prompting me to insert a blank cd
[02:42] <orbin> Anderson: !pastebin is a trigger for the chanel bot to spit out text
[02:42] <duneatreides> but I already have a blank cd in my burner
[02:42] <orbin> Anderson: read what ubotu said
[02:42] <kmilo> burnout39, move the .bin to your home folder
[02:43] <kmilo> burnout39, sudo sh therealname.bin
[02:43] <orbin> duneatreides: what app?
[02:43] <duneatreides> nautilus i think
[02:43] <burnout39> kmilo, k done
[02:43] <ompaul> duneatreides, so you navigate to the drive with the cd in it (/dev/hdX)
[02:43] <burnout39> kmilo, k
[02:43] <ompaul> duneatreides, it is not seeing it as blank if it is asking for one
[02:43] <duneatreides> but it is blank
[02:44] <andym> does ubuntu keep a list of the packages installed on a apt-get install somewhere?
[02:44] <ompaul> duneatreides, eject it and put in again
[02:44] <kmilo> andym, dpkg -l
[02:44] <nathansnook> ok I have problem I just installed ubuntu and I did not remember seeing the root password.  How do I reset this password if I never know what it was
[02:44] <andym> thanks
[02:44] <Mattbds> hey how does apt-get stack up against rpm?
[02:44] <Mattbds> and ubuntu uses .deb right?
[02:44] <kmilo> nathansnook, there isn't root password
[02:44] <orbin> ubotu: tell nathansnook about root
[02:44] <ompaul> !root
[02:44] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[02:45] <ompaul> nathansnook, ^^ look up a line
[02:45] <orbin> Mattbds: from what i've read....it's a lot faster and cleaner
[02:45] <orbin> Mattbds: and yes, ubuntu uses .deb files
[02:45] <nathansnook> ook if I want to do a su command in a terminal I need a root password don;t I???
[02:45] <duneatreides> I tried ejecting the cd, and it still doesn't work
[02:45] <ompaul> nathansnook, no, read that bot things
[02:45] <Mattbds> i tried ubuntu before but the .deb thing confused me as opposed to rpm
[02:45] <Mattbds> is the cd-burner mounted properly?
[02:46] <orbin> Mattbds: confused how?
[02:46] <andym> after an apt-get upgrade, external access to my box stopped, local network access still works (192.168*)... any ideas where to look?
[02:46] <kmilo> Mattbds, your gonna love apt
[02:46] <burnout39> kmilo, thanks it worked now
[02:46] <andym> guess number of possible packages is large that could go wrong
[02:46] <kmilo> burnout39, :)
[02:46] <ompaul> nathansnook, read this: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo << you don't need to be root
[02:46] <ompaul> nathansnook, ever
[02:46] <nathansnook> So is this safer???
[02:46] <orbin> Mattbds: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptGetHowTo/ or if you're a gui-man: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[02:46] <Mattbds> Funny enough i have a dvd install fc4 and it also has a live cd knoppix.. knoppix seems so much better than fc4
[02:47] <duneatreides> how do I check to see if the cd drive is mounted properly?
[02:47] <nathansnook> I have read the bot and other posting.  Sorry am new top this distro coming from fedora
[02:47] <ompaul> nathansnook, yes, read the web page it explains it, real advantage is your not there at the root prompt all the time
[02:47] <kmilo> duneatreides, /media/cdrom
[02:47] <orbin> nathansnook: welcome :)
[02:48] <nathansnook> So what is the best way to update the system.  Command line or use the update option in the task bar above
[02:48] <kmilo> nathansnook, update or upgrade?
[02:48] <Mattbds> argh command line stuff .... noooooo
[02:48] <nathansnook> update current system.  Just downloaded 5.10
[02:49] <nathansnook> Thankz for all of the help that you are all providing :)
[02:49] <orbin> Mattbds: then stick to synaptic :)
[02:49] <ompaul> nathansnook, your call, go with the guy (this ain't no up2date system this rocks)
[02:49] <ompaul> nathansnook, suggest s/guy/gui :-)
[02:49] <andym> hmm server can get to google.com ok
[02:50] <kmilo> bye
[02:50] <nathansnook> so can I use apt-get for most of the things that I need?
[02:51] <ompaul> nathansnook, yeap just add some reapos I will get the channel bot to tell you about them
[02:51] <nathansnook> thankz
[02:51] <ompaul> and one link that you might find interesting
[02:52] <archigos> !ntfs
[02:52] <ubotu> somebody said ntfs was the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[02:52] <HymnToLife> archigos> please /msg the bot if you want infos for yourself :)
[02:54] <_mark> anyone here?
[02:54] <nathansnook> Ompaul>>  Thank you for all of the information.  you make a complete newbie feel like he is already in a good place.  Thankz for all of the help and info.  Keep up the good work
[02:54] <Mattbds> lots of people here
[02:54] <ompaul> iekd, so you get 694 nos :-)
[02:54] <nathansnook> Thankz for all of the help everyone
[02:54] <ompaul> nathansnook, yw
[02:55] <iekd> ok well anyways, i just installed kubuntu and it never gave me the option to set root password, so uhh i dont have one
[02:55] <Mattbds> well thanks for the info on ubuntu, should i install breezy again or go for the latest distro?
[02:55] <iekd> how do i set root password
[02:55] <ompaul> !root
[02:55] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[02:55] <HymnToLife> !tell iekd about root
[02:55] <ompaul> iekd, ^^^ read thgat link please
[02:56] <HymnToLife> you cheater :D
[02:56] <jhenn_> hi. is there a place in the wiki to tell people that certain hardware works?  This wireless card i just bought worked out of the box and I want to let people know.
[02:56] <ompaul> HymnToLife, I am spamming the channel as we are getting a lot of similar queries
[02:56] <HymnToLife> yeah, the root thing is a classic one
[02:56] <ompaul> ohh noooooo its the fusssa or Hobbsee :-)
[02:56] <orbin> ubotu: tell jhenn about hardware
[02:56] <Hobbsee> hehe hi ompaul
[02:56] <ompaul> hiya Hobbsee
[02:56] <iekd> hmm wierd about no root, seems stuipd
[02:57] <orbin> jhenn: might want to make a forum topic too if you wish
[02:57] <jhenn_> anyone else excited for dapper
[02:57] <ompaul> iekd, you are entitled to your opinion, do it for a week and then tell me its not a good idea
[02:57] <AgentCy> how do i upgrade to the latest dapper flight?
[02:58] <iekd> ompaul: it could be a good idea, but it seems like if your smart about your system you wont overwright something
[02:58] <iekd> ompaul: so basically there is no root, but if i need to use admin privilages then i just use my password?
[02:58] <ompaul> AgentCy,  for dapper go to #ubuntu+1
[02:58] <orbin> Mattbds: personally, i'm waiting for dapper release before i'd install it
[02:58] <ompaul> iekd, yes first user only until you add them to the admin group
[02:59] <orbin> not too long now anyways
[02:59] <iekd> gotcha
[02:59] <iekd> thanks for the help and input
[02:59] <ompaul> np
[02:59] <Mattbds> well i was actually hoping for a live cd orbin
[03:00] <orbin> oh :)
[03:00] <iekd> whats a recommended browser to use?
[03:00] <iekd> firefox,,, i though there was a new browser (faster) by mozilla
[03:00] <Mattbds> yah try fore you "buy" but from what i see from my live dvd of knoppix it rocks
[03:01] <ompaul> iekd, no firefox is newer than mozilla
[03:01] <Mattbds> i like suse too but i want to try a couple others and not be close-minded
[03:01] <orbin> iekd: yeah, ff1.5 :)
[03:01] <spikeb> iekd: you might be thinking of seamonkey, which is a continuation of the mozilla suite
[03:01] <iekd> yea seamonkey, hows that?
[03:01] <orbin> Mattbds: guess i'd go w/ dapper live then if it's available
[03:02] <Mattbds> well theres no rush
[03:02] <jhenn_> can someone give me some help editing this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[03:02] <jhenn_> the formatting is so confusing
[03:03] <bluefoxicy> ubotu, testatrix?
[03:03] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, bluefoxicy
[03:03] <spikeb> haha
[03:03] <bluefoxicy> what the frigging HELL is testatrix?
[03:03] <bluefoxicy> I am writing e-mail
[03:03] <spikeb> iekd: it's nice
[03:03] <bluefoxicy> Thunderbird suggests "paxtest" is a misspelling of "testatrix"
[03:03] <spikeb> iekd: no packages of it though
[03:03] <spikeb> bluefoxicy: haha
[03:03] <iekd> aww
[03:03] <pike_> cant see IT ever convincing management to switch from ie to something called seamonkey..
[03:04] <l> can someone help me? i am having trouble with a startup script.
[03:04] <spikeb> pike_: don't think anyone cares
[03:04] <iekd> so if someone is willing to help me i have a question... i had gentoo and used portage and apt-get is similar correct...is there a place i can look for all the repositories?
[03:04] <l> i keep getting this error message
[03:04] <l> problems opening file start for reading
[03:04] <seribus> seamonkey is a cool name
[03:04] <orbin> i thought that was trademarked :-/
[03:04] <ompaul> bluefoxicy, chill with the expressions of astonishment :-) It is a woman who makes and leaves a will at death; a female
[03:04] <ompaul>  testator.
[03:04] <bluefoxicy> ompaul:  oh, I thought it was like, tricks with your testicles
[03:05] <andym> ok so removed iptables, anything else?
[03:05] <spikeb> it's a community project without backing from the mozilla foundation, so I imagine they don't care about management that much
[03:05] <serp> What's a good hex editor for linux?

[03:07] <cheziyi> Gd morn!ing
[03:07] <ompaul> iekd, it is installed in the default ubuntu
[03:07] <phenom> Can someone help me please?
[03:08] <ompaul> !repeat
[03:08] <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.
[03:08] <orbin> duckdown: alt+f2 and run xkill, then click on the frozen window
[03:08] <iekd> ompaul: really, ill i have find it
[03:08] <cheziyi> phenom, warcraft iii asks for cd...
[03:08] <daryl_> what is the command to see the list of active applications, so you can type a 'kill' command?
[03:08] <phenom> cheziyi, it asks for the Warcraft ||| cd which is in the drive, this is a legal copy
[03:08] <duckdown> orbin> would you believe that didnt do it
[03:08] <serp> phenom: type winecfg and make the drive
[03:08] <ompaul> iekd, planet earth in the top panel or applications internet and then the earth thing
[03:09] <andym> ok putting iptables back in
[03:09] <seribus> daryl try ps aux
[03:09] <anonymouse> daryl_: ps?
[03:09] <duneatreides> hello, how do I mount my cd-burner?
[03:09] <duneatreides> i know it is hdd
[03:09] <orbin> duckdown: sorry chief.
[03:09] <duneatreides> /dev/hdd
[03:09] <daryl_> anonymouse: ps what?
[03:09] <duckdown> :|
[03:09] <duckdown> thanks anyway
[03:09] <orbin> duckdown: what about via sys mon?
[03:09] <duckdown> im gonna restart gnome
[03:09] <Mattbds> hi duneatreides
[03:09] <iekd> ompaul: i only see konqueror
[03:09] <duckdown> orbin> no worries, thanks though
[03:09] <duneatreides> hello mattbds
[03:09] <duneatreides> :)
[03:09] <duneatreides> back again
[03:09] <Mattbds> if its not mounted when you put in cd you can use mount command
[03:09] <ompaul> iekd, so you installed kubuntu not ubuntu - there is a channel for that #kubuntu
[03:10] <lowfi> duckdown, use the force quit panel applet
[03:10] <cheziyi> phenom, oh right, so the cd is already inside. i also had this problem, and mine's a legal copy too, you can go and download those no-cd patches... you have a legal copy anyway so you don't have anything to worry about
[03:10] <Mattbds> but i think you might wonder why its not mounted automatically
[03:10] <duneatreides> well, i'm trying to trouble shoot the cd-burner not working
[03:10] <Mattbds> okay as root
[03:10] <james_xxx> i have the dumbest question of the day... how do i log in as root on a machine running xubuntu?
[03:10] <spikeb> !root
[03:10] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[03:10] <daryl_> anonymouse: ps what?
[03:10] <iekd> ompaul: yes yes your correct, the thing i read said its exactly the same except gnome... i just assumed that gnome/kde would come with same 3rd party applications
[03:10] <duneatreides> that isn't a dumb question james_xxx
[03:10] <Mattbds> if you look under dev you can find which device you cd burner is
[03:10] <cheziyi> phenom, the downside is that after you get those patches, you can't play battle.net
[03:10] <phenom> cheziyi, I h ave downloaded the nocd patch but I cannot find the Warcraft ||| folder Wine created?
[03:10] <Mattbds> usually hdc
[03:11] <ompaul> james_xxx, ^^^ up a acouple of lines
[03:11] <cheziyi> phenom, are you using cedega or wine?
[03:11] <Mattbds> so mount /dev/hdc       /mnt/cd
[03:11] <james_xxx> ompaul, i saw that.....
[03:11] <james_xxx> duneatreides, ty
[03:11] <ompaul> iekd, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop will put ubuntu desktop and gnome default apps useful desktop together
[03:11] <phenom> cheziyi, I didn't want myself to sound like I am a software pirate :) so I didn't mention a nocd patch :)
[03:11] <phenom> cheziyi, Wine
[03:11] <Mattbds> i cant remember all of the mount options but help mount will tell you what they are
[03:12] <cheziyi> phenom, ok, go to your home folder, press "crlt - h" to see hidden folders
[03:12] <duneatreides> well, my cdburner is hdd
[03:12] <iekd> ompaul: thanks
[03:12] <james_xxx> well, i am attempting to run synaptic package manager, and it is telling me only root can do that....
[03:12] <cheziyi> phenom: and find a ".wine" folder
[03:12] <seribus> daryl the comand ps should work
[03:12] <spikeb> tell james_xxx about root
[03:12] <seribus> I use ps aux
[03:12] <spikeb> !tell james_xxx about root
[03:12] <cheziyi> phenom: and there you have a "c_drive" folder
[03:12] <iekd> i should have just done kubuntu
[03:12] <phenom> cheziyi, :D I see the Warcraft ||| folder!
[03:12] <iekd> oh well thanks for the help
[03:13] <cheziyi> phenom: yup, ok, there you have it ;)
[03:13] <phenom> cheziyi, Thank you so much!
[03:13] <Mattbds> hey enough i am using windows xp i got to reboot to get to my suse now...
[03:13] <cheziyi> phenom, you're welcome
[03:14] <nathansnook> Ok I have another question about sudo.  Is there a way to allow some user to have the sudo access and not others?
[03:14] <spikeb> nathansnook: yeah
[03:14] <cheziyi> oh phenom, make sure you run warcraft iii with the opengl command
[03:14] <cyphermox> yes, through groups (or not) and the /etc/sudoers file
[03:14] <phenom> cheziyi, How?
[03:14] <phenom> cheziyi, It was playing very slow
[03:15] <nathansnook> ok is there an area or place that you can offer me to look at
[03:15] <cheziyi> phenom, yea, that is y you need to run it with the opengl command
[03:15] <kaan> where can i find out the kernel information, like version?
[03:15] <cyphermox> man sudoers ?
[03:15] <james_xxx> ok, since i cannot log in as root, how do i sudo synaptic from the terminal?
[03:15] <phenom> warcraft3.exe -opengl?
[03:15] <spikeb> james_xxx: type sudo synaptic
[03:15] <cheziyi> without the dash
[03:15] <spikeb> james_xxx: or gksudo synaptic
[03:15] <cheziyi> phenom, without the dash
[03:16] <james_xxx> spikeb, ty
[03:16] <cheziyi> phenom, or with it, i have forgotten ;P

[03:19] <Flannel> googler: of course, that's THEIR client who can choose whether to or not, not yours.
[03:20] <nathansnook> ok thankz for the sudo info

[04:07] <wizzermetimers> hello all
[04:08] <strav> hey... anyone here has a breezy related repository where it's possible to find libdvdcss (for reading encrypted dvds)... googled for it, only got broken links.
[04:08] <pab1> Anyone have vmware experience?
[04:09] <Madpilot> !dvd
[04:09] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[04:09] <Madpilot> strav, ^^^
[04:09] <orbin> InnerFIRE: [Tools|Accounts|"choosing your MSN account"|Modify|Buddy Icon under Uesr Options] .
[04:10] <Kamo> Is it possible to install mIRC on Ubuntu?
[04:10] <orbin> what's wrong w/ xchat?
[04:11] <Kamo> nothing, is there a way to find a server thats in mIRC on here?
[04:11] <strav> ubotu, yep this is what I need, I can play non encrypted dvds. Thing is I'm looking for a repository since I want synaptic to do the job of curing myself from some conflicts this libs has with other files.
[04:11] <ubotu> okay, strav
[04:11] <wizzermetimers> I recently changed over from Gentoo to ubuntu,  and now im trying to mount the second hard drive which has two xfs partitions,  I can't seem to mount them I'm getting a stupid /dev/hdb* is already mounted or path is busy, error. Both the partitions arn't mounted and the paths arn't busy.
[04:11] <rab> is there anyway i can switch from gnome to xfce?
[04:11] <chmod775> !dapper
[04:11] <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
[04:12] <wizzermetimers> I booted up the ubuntu distro on the installer cd. And I can mount them no problem
[04:12] <wizzermetimers> but I can't on the installed Ubuntu :)
[04:12] <Madpilot> rab, install xubuntu-desktop
[04:12] <wizzermetimers> XFS is in the kernel
[04:12] <planetcall> I dont see many softwares listed to current version in repostitories. Why is it so ?
[04:12] <Hobbsee> !tell rab about xfce
[04:12] <rab> madpilot, will that screw anything up? or will it just delete gnome?
[04:13] <Hobbsee> planetcall: for breezy?  because they were the most recent as at october last year
[04:13] <Hobbsee> er, make that august/september
[04:13] <Madpilot> rab, it won't delete Gnome, it'll just give you an option on login
[04:13] <wizzermetimers> "mount: /dev/hdb5 already mounted or /mnt/hard1/ busy
[04:13] <wizzermetimers> " This is the exact error message
[04:13] <rab> ok
[04:13] <rab> thanks
[04:13] <planetcall> so repositories wont update with newer release of most of the softwares ? like Firefox, gnome, kde etc ?
[04:13] <Madpilot> planetcall, not usually. There are security updates, though
[04:14] <orbin> what about backports?
[04:14] <planetcall> so you have to update most of the softwares manually ! isnt it ?
[04:15] <ipodman> hello
[04:15] <Madpilot> planetcall, every six months the new release updates *everything* - next release is June 1st
[04:15] <ipodman> how do you change the screen resolution
[04:15] <Madpilot> orbin, there are backports for a lot of stuff, but not everything
[04:15] <ipodman> in ubuntu
[04:15] <ipodman> screen resolution
[04:15] <ipodman> how do u change it
[04:16] <ipodman> this is retarded, anyone there
[04:16] <baconbacon> system -> prefs -> screen res
[04:16] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell ipodman about patience
[04:16] <ipodman> it only says 680x480 or somehting
[04:16] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell ipodman about fixres
[04:16] <ipodman> it's horrible
[04:17] <Madpilot> ipodman, you've got two PMs that should help you...
[04:17] <ipodman> cool
[04:17] <antoninus> !resolution
[04:17] <ubotu> hmm... resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:17] <orbin> er, any azureus users?  if i stop a torrent, does that let me resume the d/load later?  i can't see a pause option and don't want to lose the 400MB i've already got
[04:18] <wizzermetimers> anyone?
[04:18] <pike_> orbin: yes it will resume
[04:18] <orbin> ok thanks
[04:19] <pike_> wizzermetimers: it likely already mounted under the /media/ directory
[04:19] <orbin> wizzermetimers: pastebin the output of 'mount'
[04:19] <antoninus> wizzermetimers, have you checked the /media folder? They may be mounted there
[04:19] <ipodman> does the screen resolution thing work with the live cd
[04:20] <orbin> ipodman: not afaik
[04:21] <hacosta> is ubuntu.com hosted in an ubuntu server?
[04:21] <antoninus> ipodman, yes, you'll have to repeat on each boot though
[04:21] <Madpilot> hacosta, I'm pretty sure it is
[04:22] <hacosta> is it a good distro for a server?
[04:22] <antoninus> hacosta, I use it as a server, email, samba, web, database
[04:22] <ipodman> but will it work with the live cd
[04:22] <hacosta> ok ok
[04:22] <antoninus> ipodman, it should, yes
[04:23] <antoninus> hacosta, you'll find lots of howtos on wiki.ubuntu.com

[04:23] <stravin> hum. may I ask again: any repository for libdvdcss2 (more likely a multiverse)?
[04:23] <RemyLaptop> !gdesklets
[04:23] <ubotu> I heard gdesklets is gDesklets provides an advanced architecture for desktop applets -- tiny displays sitting on your desktop in a symbiotic relationship of eye candy and usefulness Homepage is http://gdesklets.gnomedesktop.org/
[04:24] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell stravin about dvd
[04:24] <hacosta> so ubuntu is secure out of the box?
[04:24] <baconbacon> hacosta: well all ports are closed on default install
[04:24] <stravin> bah. I'll check that damn bot's link.
[04:24] <eggzeck> baconbacon: ??
[04:24] <Madpilot> stravin, I gave you "that damn bot's link" ages ago...
[04:25] <eggzeck> baconbacon: no they are not.
[04:25] <baconbacon> eggzeck, hacosta. huh, not open then?
[04:25] <hacosta> dunno, that's why im asking
[04:25] <planetcall> ubotu's link to gdesklet is outdated
[04:25] <planetcall> the new one is   http://www.gdesklets.org/
[04:26] <antoninus> hacosta, yes, any services you want to run have to be enable explicitly
[04:26] <eggzeck> baconbacon: no ports are filtered by default.
[04:26] <eggzeck> hacosta: that doesn't mean it's insecure ;)
[04:26] <baconbacon> eggzeck: i didnt mean to say "closed" i just meant "no opened"
[04:26] <eggzeck> baconbacon: oh I see, excuse me then.
[04:27] <baconbacon> my bad
[04:27] <stravin> yes but I didn't tought there were actually repositories in it but the .deb instead. (and didn't wanted to manually remove conflicting packages or what so ever) thanks anyways, it's much appreciated. (I should have checked)
[04:27] <hacosta> so i won't be seeing apache service or an http server starting at boot on a default install?
[04:27] <eggzeck> hacosta: nope
[04:27] <Madpilot> hacosta, nope.
[04:27] <hacosta> :)
[04:28] <feet16> can u plz tell me how to make a new user in console mode O_o
[04:28] <eggzeck> feet16: man adduser
[04:28] <feet16> oh ty
[04:28] <feet16> :-)
[04:29] <antoninus> hacosta, they're often preconfigured and enabled for you when you install them but not without warning or required input
[04:29] <eggzeck> feet16: basically: sudo adduser <user> (then it will ask you for information)
[04:29] <eggzeck> oops, he left.
[04:29] <graft> so... i don't have a DVD burner, i have a CD-RW. is there some application that lets you make VCDs easily?
[04:31] <pike_> graft: you could look for some front ends to transcode or find a script for it on the web that does what you want
[04:32] <rab> when ever i reboot with my empty drive in , i cant boot linux
[04:32] <hacosta> well it seems like a nice distro
[04:32] <antoninus> hacosta, it's a great distro :)
[04:32] <pike_> graft: gtranscode is in the repos never used it myself
[04:33] <graft> pike_: okey smokey, will try it out
[04:34] <yuan> what i should do if my bittorrect aways couldn't connect the server??
[04:34] <InnerFIRE> is there a way i can add my picture to yahoo or msn using gaim?
[04:34] <spikeb> yes
[04:34] <spikeb> InnerFIRE: yeah
[04:34] <InnerFIRE> ?
[04:34] <spikeb> InnerFIRE: let me check and see how
[04:35] <InnerFIRE> k
[04:35] <spikeb> InnerFIRE: tools, accounts, modify, buddy icon
[04:35] <InnerFIRE> thanx man
[04:36] <spikeb> you bet :)
[04:36] <Madpilot> yuan, pick a different torrent - some don't have anyone peering them
[04:36] <spikeb> speaking of which, i haven't done that yet myself
[04:36] <spikeb> thanks for reminding me
[04:37] <yuan> Madpilot :  thx  . i will have a try
[04:37] <rab> how can i mount a harddrive?
[04:38] <Ahmuck> mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
[04:39] <Ahmuck> provided you mkdir /mnt/hda1 first
[04:39] <Ahmuck> and do ti as root
[04:39] <rab> ty
[04:39] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell rab about mount
[04:40] <Ahmuck> !mount
[04:40] <ubotu> methinks mount is the command to add partitions to your filesystem - for full instructions see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingANewHardDrive For mounting windows partitions, see !windowsdrives or http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[04:41] <Ahmuck> !windowsdrives
[04:41] <ubotu> hmm... windowsdrives is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions or see http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[04:42] <Apostle^> my system is currently using the wrong soundcard, whats the command in alsamixer to toggle sound cards?
[04:43] <dracula_> hi
[04:43] <dracula_> if I have one user with mp3 codecs already working
[04:43] <pike_> Apostle^: i usually just disable onboard sound when i have that problem :)
[04:44] <dracula_> how can I activate mp3 codecs for a newly added user if they are ok for another user?
[04:44] <stravin> can anyone try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages, (note that you should replace "list_of_sections" at the end of your newly added source.list line with something like "all" or "backports" )
[04:44] <eimajenthat> that's not normally user-specific
[04:44] <eimajenthat> it's normally global
[04:45] <pike_> dracula_: does the other user have sound at all?
[04:45] <stravin> ... that could provide helpfull for anyone trying to get their hand on somehow restricted packages.
[04:45] <dracula_> pike_: yes, the other user have sounds working quiet well
[04:46] <planetcall> what should be installed to play wmv ?
[04:46] <Apostle^> how do i change the sound device alsa is currently set up to use?
[04:46] <Apostle^> it's using a bluetooth headset instead of the soundcard
[04:46] <stravin> planetcall: win32 codecs plus mplayer, xine... anything that can use them.
[04:46] <crimsun> Apostle^: System> Preferences> Sound> default sound card
[04:47] <Apostle^> crimsun, i did that no luck
[04:47] <Apostle^> crimsun, alsamixer still shows BT headset
[04:47] <pike_> dracula_: btw i loved you in the keanu reeves movie.  thought you overdid it in dracula2000 though
[04:47] <duneatreides> hello
[04:47] <dracula_> pike_ he he he
[04:47] <mikebot> anyone know why the java install didn't work forme? (i followed the directions on the page ubotu gives you when you do !java for sun java directly from sun -- i want to play yahoo games)
[04:47] <duneatreides> can anyone help me? I am having difficulty making my cd burner to work
[04:47] <stravin> anyone tried those repositories at  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages?
[04:48] <Apostle^> crimsun, it resets to BT headset everytime
[04:48] <duneatreides> I am new to Linux, and unfortunately I am used to doing things the M$ way
[04:48] <robertj> are there any good tools for viewing all files on your system not managed by a package manager?
[04:48] <robertj> err by dpkg?
[04:48] <Madpilot> duneatreides, what're you trying to burn?
[04:49] <duneatreides> well, I just installed ubuntu, and I'm testing out my system
[04:49] <crimsun> Apostle^: cat /proc/asound/cards   -> pastebin
[04:49] <duneatreides> i'm trying to burn firefox-1.5.0.3 just as a test run
[04:49] <Madpilot> mikebot, did you do the reconfiguring java stuff? Look on the wiki page, at the section right below the Sun Java Install section
[04:49] <graft> duneatreides: if you are willing to install kde libs, k3b is probably the best burning app on linux
[04:50] <eimajenthat> what about graveman and gnomebaker?
[04:50] <mikebot> Madpilot, i think so, let me check
[04:50] <mikebot> !java
[04:50] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[04:50] <Apostle^> crimsun, http://pastebin.com/727614
[04:50] <pike_> duneatreides: also nero has a linux port.  if you have a valid windows key nero will accept it i think
[04:50] <eimajenthat> also, I recently learned cdrecord is pretty easy to work on the command line, thought it would be harder
[04:51] <Madpilot> duneatreides, stick a blank CD in, Ubuntu should ask what you want to do with it...
[04:51] <whiter> can anyone tell me how this guy got these shadows around the windows
[04:51] <whiter> http://www.gnome-look.org/content/pre2/37933-2.png
[04:51] <whiter> i have yet to figure out how to get shadows
[04:51] <duneatreides> i'm sure k3b, but the default cd/dvd creator doesn't seem to work
[04:51] <Madpilot> duneatreides, what error does it give you?
[04:51] <Apostle^> crimsun, i fixed it, it seems to be working now.. thanks
[04:52] <duneatreides> what happens is that I insert a blank cd, prompts me for a blank cd, and it keeps on prompting me for a blank cd
[04:52] <mikebot> maddler_, i think i did everything
[04:52] <duneatreides> and I know the cd is blank
[04:52] <spikeb> heh
[04:52] <rab> i cant boot up with my empty drive in, or it wont boot linux
[04:52] <mikebot> oh wait, nm, one sec
[04:53] <mikebot> Madpilot, which of these do i choose:
[04:53] <mikebot>       1        /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.0
[04:53] <mikebot>       2        /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/bin/java
[04:53] <mikebot> *+    3        /usr/lib/j2se/1.4/bin/java
[04:53] <mikebot>       4        /usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun/bin/java
[04:53] <graft> graveman is okay, but k3b is better, i think
[04:53] <graft> never used gnomebaker
[04:53] <Madpilot> mikebot, probably 4
[04:53] <Madpilot> mikebot, and please don't paste more than 2 lines in future - thanks
[04:54] <mikebot> Madpilot, sorry, i thought it would all be on the same line
[04:54] <graft> ah sweet, gnomebaker makes video cds
[04:54] <graft> points for that
[04:55] <mikebot> Madpilot, sweet, works, thanks
[04:55] <Madpilot> mikebot, np
[04:55] <mikebot> Madpilot, do you know why my totem is just a blue screen, but the audio works? i tried the fix by adding the line to the config or something, but it didn't fix it
[04:55] <mikebot> Madpilot, i also did the ctrl+alt+backspace thing
[04:55] <whiter> anyone know how to enable window shadows in gnome?
[04:55] <Madpilot> whiter, there's a howto somewhere at wiki.ubuntu.com - search there
[04:56] <rab> hey can someone help me with getting my new drive all set up?
[04:56] <Madpilot> mikebot, no idea. What file type?
[04:56] <l> can someone help me? i am getting this error message when i try to start mpd problems opening file start for reading
[04:56] <l337f00l> anyone know how to update xchat from 2.6.0 to 2.6.2
[04:56] <mikebot> Madpilot, .avi, also, it's not the codecs, cause they play in mplayer
[04:56] <rab> ubot tell rab about fdisk
[04:56] <rab> ubotu tell rab about fdisk
[04:57] <spikeb> !botsnack
[04:57] <ubotu> :)
[04:57] <Madpilot> mikebot, I've really got no idea - all my avi files play OK in Totem
[04:57] <Madpilot> mikebot, are you running totem-xine or totem-gstreamer?
[04:57] <mikebot> maddler_, xine, but i tried them both i believe...uninstalled and reinstalled totem
[04:58] <graft> mikebot: probably your video output plugin
[04:58] <l337f00l> or does anyone know why sometimes text from another server appears in other channel windows in xchat 2.6.0
[04:59] <Madpilot> l337f00l, there's a #xchat channel - try there
[04:59] <mikebot> maddler_, how do i check that?
[04:59] <humbraro> does anybody know how to get rid of the "away" window in gaim?
[04:59] <l337f00l> ok thank you
[04:59] <humbraro> it drives me nuts
[05:00] <Madpilot> mikebot, open Totem, go Help->About - check to see if it mentions xine-lib or gstreamer
[05:00] <Syco54645> hi i was wondering if there was a way that i could make it so that gedit doesnt store the ~ files in the same directory as the file that i am editing
[05:00] <Syco54645> possibly have it save to like ~/these_files_are_annoying
[05:00] <Syco54645> or can i turn it off all together
[05:00] <Madpilot> Syco54645, you can turn it off, somewhere in options
[05:01] <Syco54645> Madpilot: what are those files used for?  is it just an automatic backup?
[05:01] <Madpilot> Syco54645, exactly
[05:01] <mikebot> Madpilot, Movie Player using xine-lib version 1.0.1
[05:01] <Syco54645> Madpilot: is there a way to make it so that i can collapse text between { } when coding (kinda like in kate)
[05:02] <Madpilot> Syco54645, no idea
[05:02] <Faolan> I'm not sure. I use KDE
[05:02] <Madpilot> mikebot, if  you're already using xine, I'm not sure what's wrong...
[05:02] <Syco54645> Madpilot: oh well.  i found that option to disable it.  thanks
[05:03] <Syco54645> click editor
[05:03] <Faolan> I'm sure that there is some option to do that in gedit or blusfish
[05:03] <Syco54645> woops
[05:03] <AlwaysIcey> HI there everyone.
[05:03] <Faolan> *bluefish
[05:03] <l> can someone help me? i am having trouble getting sound with flash player
[05:03] <mikebot> maddler_, dang, ok
[05:03] <mikebot> Madpilot, **
[05:03] <AlwaysIcey> Does anyone have a good working startup script for apache 2.2.2 in Ubuntu?  I've got apache installed, but it didn't create the startup scrip for me.
[05:03] <AlwaysIcey> script*
[05:04] <mikebot> i gotta go, i'll be back later
[05:04] <BHSPitMonkey> hi
[05:04] <mikebot> thanks again for the help Madpilot
[05:04] <mikebot> cya
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> AlwaysIcey,  how did you install it?
[05:04] <Madpilot> mikebot, np
[05:04] <h3h_timo> can someone help me with adding network shares to my rythmbox library?
[05:04] <AlwaysIcey> I downloaded a tar.gz file, and did the manual install with ./
[05:05] <BHSPitMonkey> how can I give my user access to my other partitions? (the user isn't allowed to use the ntfs partition on the machine)
[05:05] <BHSPitMonkey> (I just want my user to have ro access to the partition permanently)
[05:05] <Madpilot> AlwaysIcey, wouldn't "sudo apt-get install apache2" have been easier?
[05:05] <AlwaysIcey> I've looked in the /etc/init.d folder, but there isn't any script for apache there.
[05:06] <AlwaysIcey> LOL it probably would have been.  I went to their site, and downloaded the latest stable build, without thinking about apt-get.
[05:07] <AlwaysIcey> What version does the apt-get give you?  I mean, will it give you 2.0.58 or 2.2.2?  I may try that method, just as a repair idea.
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> AlwaysIcey,  could grab the other apache debs and see what they install and extract the script
[05:07] <Madpilot> !info apache2
[05:07] <ubotu> apache2: (next generation, scalable, extendable web server), section web, is optional. Version: 2.0.54-5ubuntu2 (breezy), Packaged size: 33 kB, Installed size: 80 kB
[05:07] <iguananed> good evening all
[05:07] <humbraro> Madpilot: ubuntu doesn't have a 2.2. package
[05:07] <Madpilot> !info apache2 dapper
[05:07] <ubotu> apache2: (next generation, scalable, extendable web server), section web, is optional. Version: 2.0.55-4 (dapper), Packaged size: 34 kB, Installed size: 80 kB
[05:07] <AlwaysIcey> shoo.
[05:08] <AlwaysIcey> I've got it installed and working.  I just need to create a startup script to call apachectl start.
[05:08] <iguananed> am I in the right channel for someone to help me get tv-out working?
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> iguananed,  perhaps. :P what video card ya got?
[05:08] <Ahmuck> just hook it up to the pickup and pull real hard.  you have tv out
[05:08] <Ahmuck> *snicker*
[05:08] <iguananed> nVidia V9520-x
[05:09] <Ahmuck> sorry, i could not resist :-(
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> iguananed,  you install the nvidia drivers yet?
[05:09] <iguananed> from what I gather it has the FX5200 chipset
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> !nvidia
[05:09] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[05:09] <iguananed> yeppers
[05:09] <iguananed> got nvIdia settings working too
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> iguananed,  heh - on my machine - when i had the tv out hooked up and nvidia drivers.. the silly thing defaulted to the tv out.
[05:09] <iguananed> tried using nvtv
[05:09] <humbraro> AlwaysIcey: i can send you my apache init script, and it should be easy enough to edit for apache2.2 binaries
[05:09] <AlwaysIcey> Hmmm..  Is there a list of what you can get with the ! command?
[05:09] <AlwaysIcey> That would be great.
[05:09] <Faolan> what is the best graphics card for Linux. ATI or NVidia?
[05:09] <HymnToLife> !ubotu
[05:09] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
[05:09] <babo> does anyone know how to alter a table name in mysql ... ?
[05:10] <babo>  alter table tablename modify column colname newcolname ?
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> Faolan,  dont bother with ati at all. :)
[05:10] <HymnToLife> babo> get phpmyadmin :)
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> Faolan,  'best' depends on your needs however
[05:10] <_darksoul> how much longer until dapper is out
[05:11] <spikeb> !dapper
[05:11] <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
[05:11] <Flannel> babo: in mysql, RENAME table1 to table2
[05:11] <Dr_Willis> 'when its done' :P
[05:11] <Faolan> I have an ATI card that has 128 megs but I notice my NVidia card with 32 megs beats it's performance sometimes. any reason other than chance? drivers perhaps?
[05:11] <humbraro> AlwaysIcey: there you go, just make sure that it points to the binaries that you have installed
[05:11] <Flannel> erm, RENAME TABLE table1 TO table2
[05:11] <iguananed> When I open nVidia video settings .. under device it only show CRT
[05:11] <spikeb> Faolan: ATI's drivers suck badly
[05:11] <babo> Flannel: sorry, meant to say alter a column in mysql ...
[05:11] <Dr_Willis> Faolan,  benchmarks can be very missleading. :P and of course ati drivers can suck
[05:11] <_darksoul> Faolan: drivers.
[05:11] <AlwaysIcey> I take it you sent it to my e-mail address?
[05:11] <HymnToLife> babo> anyway, if you just want to rename a table it's ALTER TABLE tablename RENAME newtablename;
[05:12] <babo> HymnToLife: yes, i'm aware of that - but I want to alter a column ...
[05:12] <Faolan> Dr_Willis: drivers can such that much... damn!
[05:12] <zoe> hello, easy enuff question:  I have upgraded the kernel many times,  but the old versions are not automatically removed... I have a list of about ten in grub.  Where are the kernel images stored?  Is there a proper way to delete old kernels?
[05:13] <Flannel> zoe: do it in your package manager.
[05:13] <HymnToLife> babo> then try ALTER TABLE tablename CHANGE columnname newcolumnname
[05:13] <Flannel> zoe: and yes, they're not removed by design.  In case a new kernel breaks things, you can easily go back to the old one.
[05:13] <Madpilot> zoe, start Synaptic, mark all the old ones for deletion.
[05:14] <l> can someone help me? i am having trouble getting totem to work in firefox
[05:14] <zoe> Flannel: Madpilot, alright, thanks... will try.
[05:14] <rab> my drive isnt showing up
[05:17] <h3h_timo> help me please
[05:17] <rab> ^
[05:17] <HymnToLife> !helpme
[05:17] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you. :)
[05:17] <h3h_timo> lol
[05:17] <l> can someone help me? i am having trouble getting totem to work in firefox
[05:17] <h3h_timo> okay thank you
[05:18] <AlwaysIcey> Humbraro, could I have you resend the script, if it's not too much trouble? I have my DCC disabled by default, so I didn't get it.
[05:18] <h3h_timo> umm... i need to add files from a mounted samba share to rhythmbox... but it cant see the mounted share on my desktop
[05:18] <humbraro> no prob
[05:18] <AlwaysIcey> Thanks :D
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  where is it mounted to?
[05:19] <HymnToLife> h3h_timo> Rythmbox can't play remote files AFAIK
[05:19] <humbraro> there ya go again
[05:19] <h3h_timo> i dunno.. the desktop.. i just clicked on the share in network shares.. and clicked connect
[05:19] <Abountu> anyone have an idea why skype sounds much better on windows than in Ubuntu?
[05:19] <h3h_timo> HymnToLife, what should i use to play them?
[05:19] <HymnToLife> Abountu> ask the Skype developpers
[05:19] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  you may have it set where the desktop just shows the unmounted shares.
[05:19] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  look in /media/ perhaps for the share.. or use the 'mount' command and see if its really mounted
[05:20] <Abountu> HymnToLife: is this an issue known to all?
[05:20] <AlwaysIcey> I may have to have you e-mail it to me..lol  Either that, or I have to include all sorts of file types.  It automatically rejected the file.  :S  Darn Windows security anyhow :@
[05:20] <Shadowline> ok, since I don't wanna spend the whole weekend learning php and shit, can some one point me in the direction of a good Upload/Download script ? Or perhaps I should use something else ?
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  then theres the gnome computer thang. :P
[05:20] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, what? lol
[05:20] <rab> can someone help me find my drive?
[05:20] <humbraro> AlwaysIcey: hang on a sec and i'll ftp it somewhere
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  look in /media things get mounted there in their own dirs. Ubuntu FUNdamentals.
[05:20] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, if i right click on the share it says unmount volume
[05:21] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  hmm.. if you are clicking on the share.. then you got an icon.. so whats the problem?
[05:21] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, yeah, i know.. but that is actually looking at the desktop, i just cant see it in rhythmbox
[05:22] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  you just lost me. :P
[05:22] <AlwaysIcey> Thanks again humbraro.  Sorry that it's being so much of an issue. :S  I've never gotten into the DCC thing at all, and usually have it completely disabled.
[05:22] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, when i look for the share in rhythmbox, to add it, i cant see it
[05:22] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  drag and drop the thing to the program. :P
[05:22] <humbraro> no prob - you were the first person that i've ever tried to dcc anything to :)
[05:23] <h3h_timo> yeah im tryin
[05:23] <humbraro> lemme know if you get it ok
[05:23] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, i cant, it wont let me, what multimedia program do you use?
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  xmms mainly
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  i also tend to use kde, not gnome. :P
[05:24] <Abountu> is skype known to have less sound quality in ubuntu compared to windows, or is this somehting I musht have got not well optimized?
[05:24] <orbin> not bmp Dr_Willis?
[05:24] <Dr_Willis> orbin,  nope. :P
[05:24] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, well, it shows how this is done on a site
[05:24] <h3h_timo> let me find it
[05:25] <AlwaysIcey> Yep, I've got it and saved it.  Now, I just have to move it over to my linux box.  Thanks again.
[05:25] <humbraro> cool
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  you are seeing the files in the samba share from the file manager?
[05:25] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, yes.. here is the link http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?id=388
[05:25] <h3h_timo> orbin, whats up?
[05:25] <HymnToLife> !samba
[05:25] <ubotu> it has been said that samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[05:25] <HymnToLife> h3h_timo> try the first link
[05:26] <orbin> h3h_timo: hey :)
[05:26] <orbin> h3h_timo: how's your system going?
[05:26] <AlwaysIcey> And, in ubuntu, I want it in my init.d directory, right? I know on one of the other distros, you had to run a script, then put it in an rcN directory.
[05:26] <mwosh> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:26] <mwosh> dammit
[05:26] <PaloDeQueso> I have a broadcom 43xx device which I am now using the native drivers for with dapper. But the one thing I noticed when I switched to the new drivers from ndis was a signifigant drop in signal quality. Has anyone else experienced this?

[05:26] <h3h_timo> orbin, great i love ubuntu so much.. im just finishing setting the rest of this up... gnome hasnt been running too slow.. just when i run azureus or frostwire.. everything else runs fine
[05:27] <h3h_timo> HymnToLife, did you see that link? http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?id=388
[05:27] <orbin> h3h_timo: nice.
[05:27] <h3h_timo> it shows exactly how to do it
[05:28] <h3h_timo> orbin, i cant wait till i get my new laptop, im gonna dual boot windows and ubuntu tho cuz im gonna need windows next year for school
[05:29] <h3h_timo> orbin, you know how u said u can set up xchat to automatically sign in for me? well it always gives me a password incorrect, everytime
[05:29] <cheziyi> h3h_timo, to save yourself some trouble don't get a laptop that uses the smart battery system
[05:29] <orbin> h3h_timo: which box are you putting it in?
[05:30] <h3h_timo> cheziyi, what is that?
[05:30] <h3h_timo> orbin, the password box
[05:30] <orbin> h3h_timo: there's 2 of them. nickserv and server
[05:30] <h3h_timo> orbin, the nickserv password box
[05:31] <orbin> h3h_timo: oh, then it should work
[05:31] <cheziyi> its a battery protocol that isn't really supported my linux just yet
[05:31] <orbin> h3h_timo: ask in #xchat.  generally good people in there
[05:31] <AlwaysIcey> Thanks for the help humbraro.  Have a great weekend..  See ya all later.
[05:32] <cheziyi> h3h_timo, from what i know acer laptops have that, and its a pain to get it working
[05:32] <h3h_timo> cheziyi, dang, maybe i wont get an acer, what kind would you recommend that isnt really expensive, but is good quality?
[05:32] <rasears> just installed dapper flight 7, and networking isn't working. Has anyone seen the message "ifup: failed to open statefile /var/run/network/ifstate: No such file or directory"
[05:33] <tag> that seems like something went disasterously wrong
[05:33] <Dr_Willis> rasears,  does that file exist?
[05:33] <cheziyi> h3h_timo, leveno laptops are really good for linux, but they burn a big hole in your pocket
[05:33] <Madpilot> rasears, #ubuntu+1 for Dapper questions, please
[05:33] <rasears> nope, but /var/run is full of other files
[05:33] <rasears> thanks madpilot, will ask there
[05:33] <HymnToLife> rasears> sudo ifconfigeth<whatever>
[05:34] <HymnToLife> and configure your interfece firs with IPs and such
[05:34] <HymnToLife> first*
[05:34] <rasears> interface is configured in /etc/network/interfaces
[05:34] <h3h_timo> cheziyi, im gonna be a poor college kid, i need a cheap one that will be good for poor me
[05:34] <rasears> ifconfig reports literally nothing
[05:35] <HymnToLife> rasears> sudo /etc/init.d/networking start maybe ?
[05:35] <cheziyi> h3h_timo, hp/compaq and asus laptops are general cheaper, and also get one with nvidia graphics
[05:35] <h3h_timo> cheziyi, why nvidia?
[05:35] <HymnToLife> HP laptops have agreat Linux compatibility
[05:35] <rasears> same error message
[05:35] <orbin> wasn't there a thing on /. recently on lenevos...something bad ...i can't recall what though
[05:35] <HymnToLife> like all HP stuff
[05:36] <cheziyi> h3h_timo, for the simple reason linux runs better on nvidia
[05:36] <Dr_Willis> I got a Compaq Turion Based laptop - it was dang cheap. and works ok with linux. :P
[05:36] <h3h_timo> HymnToLife, so hp are good for linux eh?
[05:36] <Dr_Willis> its often hard to find a laptop with Nvidia card
[05:36] <HymnToLife> h3h_timo> they're great
[05:36] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, how much did you spend?
[05:36] <cheziyi> Dr_Willis, in fact it is very easy actually
[05:36] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  it was under $500
[05:36] <h3h_timo> HymnToLife, do you personally own one?
[05:36] <cheziyi> Dr_Willis, you just need to know where to look
[05:37] <h3h_timo> Dr_Willis, where did you get it and what are the specS?
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> cheziyi,  depends on what they got out. :P there was like none at the store i was at.
[05:37] <HymnToLife> h3h_timo> two laptops, one desktop and one printer
[05:37] <HymnToLife> all run perfectly
[05:37] <h3h_timo> HymnToLife, thats sweet... i hate this piece of junk its so slow i cant wait till i get a new one
[05:37] <UNH2LY> hey everyone
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> h3h_timo,  got it on sale, and there was 2 rebates. :P not even sure its made any more. they keep upping the specs. Compaq V2300 line of laptops
[05:38] <Dr_Willis> Its nice when the store and company both have rebates you manage to use.. due to their dates of effect overlapping by 2 days.
[05:38] <cheziyi> h3h_timo, where do you live?
[05:38] <h3h_timo> cheziyi, The ohio states of america
[05:39] <cheziyi> h3h_timo, great! if you want advice on getting laptops, you can go to http://forum.notebookreview.com/
[05:40] <h3h_timo> cheziyi, thanks
[05:40] <h3h_timo> cheziyi, look at this http://www.pagecomputers.com/store/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=Barebone+Systems&category%5Fname=95g95c579s2359&product%5Fid=742122

[06:11] <Madpilot> hi tonyyarusso
[06:12] <tonyyarusso> Madpilot: Hey.
[06:12] <babo> Hi guys, is there anyway I can view my pages in IE ... using my linux system ?
[06:13] <evilelf> Hold on
[06:13] <googler> babo, you should use wine
[06:13] <evilelf> babo, what are you trying to do? View a page with some activeX components?
[06:13] <babo> googler: I'm not a big wine fan to be honest ...
[06:14] <babo> evilelf, verify webpages that I make ...
[06:14] <bit_doidao> hello all, how to turn off the hplip or even the bluetooth services at boot-up?
[06:14] <googler> babo, why do u wanna use IE?
[06:14] <tonyyarusso> babo: Wine.  (It's been done before, so I'm sure you can find extensive documentation of it by other webmasters testing for compatibility.)
[06:14] <tonyyarusso> Don't know if their's a wine-less way.
[06:14] <evilelf> babo, well, common sense suggests that you have a windows test environment...
[06:14] <babo> googler: want to see if my pages are IE compatible ...
[06:14] <googler> u have firefox,epiphany,opera..
[06:15] <babo> tonyyarusso: I'm going to take a wild guess and say wine doesn't support 64bit ...
[06:15] <evilelf> babo, Dual boot a machine or use vmware, don't you have any work procedures / methodology?
[06:15] <babo> evilelf: ?
[06:15] <tonyyarusso> babo: I'm honestly not sure, as I've never had to worry about it.  I've heard people talk about 32-bit chroot something or other though...
[06:15] <anonymouse> all: anyone notice USB mouse problems with april 19th snapshot?  Pointer moves but buttons don't work.  Worked with beta2
[06:16] <tonyyarusso> babo: (Or make some poor soul who still uses Windows test it for you ;) )
[06:16] <Madpilot> anonymouse, try #ubuntu+1 for Dapper questions
[06:16] <googler> he means install winxp beside linux or use vmware to setup virtual machine an install windows
[06:16] <lexiyntax> babo: Another option is to vnc into a spare windows box.
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> cheap pc and vnc = handy for running a few windows apps.
[06:17] <wizzermetimers> hello all
[06:17] <DBO> hello wizzermetimers
[06:18] <DBO> babo, KQemu is a free, fast, and relatively easy to use emulator that supports winblows
[06:18] <nomasteryoda|w> rdesktop works very well for accessing another windows box
[06:18] <anonymouse> Madpilot: thanks
[06:18] <wizzermetimers> I've just installed ubuntu and i'm trying to mount a secondary hardrive which has two xfs parititons on it. Mount refuses to mount it with the error "mount: /dev/hdb5 already mounted or /mnt/hard1/ busy" Which is incorrect the drive isn't mounted or is the directory being used.
[06:18] <wizzermetimers> If boot the ubuntu CD and mount it via the console it mounts fine. But from the installed version I can't
[06:18] <wizzermetimers> any ideas?
[06:18] <bit_doidao> please, how to stop cupsys, hplip and bluez-utils from starting at boot time?
[06:18] <duneatreides> hello
[06:18] <bit_doidao> i dont have a printer, or even a bluetooth card
[06:18] <duneatreides> I'm having trouble using my floppy drive?
[06:19] <duneatreides> it says given gdi in not mountable
[06:19] <googler> BBO, Kqemu seems to be kde app. will it work with gnome?
[06:19] <wizzermetimers> I've recompiled my kernel and It has XFS support, I've also got xfs_Tools installed.
[06:19] <DBO> wizzermetimers, yeah, sounds like evms hijacked it
[06:19] <wizzermetimers> So i'm stumped as to why I can't mount the drive.
[06:19] <googler> DBO*
[06:19] <DBO> googler, KQemu is not a KDE app
[06:19] <wizzermetimers> evms ?
[06:19] <Abountu> I have a problem with open office, something related to java, can anyone help
[06:20] <googler> oic
[06:20] <wizzermetimers> Aboutu: you probably don't have java installed
[06:20] <DBO> wizzermetimers, see if you have a folder named /dev/evms
[06:20] <wizzermetimers> ok
[06:20] <KaosX> #linux
[06:20] <wizzermetimers> DBQ: I Do
[06:20] <wizzermetimers> I have that folder.
[06:21] <DBO> wizzermetimers, look in there, there should be a hdb5 in there, try to mount that
[06:21] <wizzermetimers> its there
[06:21] <wizzermetimers> ok
[06:21] <Abountu> wizzermetimers: java -version  gives me java version "1.4.2" gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.0.2 20050808 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.0.1-4ubuntu9)
[06:21] <wizzermetimers> Well I want to have them mounted at boot via fstab, should i just point it to that dev?
[06:21] <DBO> wizzermetimers, evms has a nasty habit of doing that, I shut off evms because it doesnt serve any need to my home systems
[06:21] <wizzermetimers> what is evms I've never used it before
[06:21] <DBO> wizzermetimers, turn off evms
[06:22] <wizzermetimers> <-- I've just come from gentoo
[06:22] <wizzermetimers> I will, just interested in what it is
[06:22] <DBO> wizzermetimers, EVMS is enterprise volume manages blargle, it allows for centralized management of all your disks, easy RAID config, that kind of thing
[06:22] <wizzermetimers> ah I see
[06:22] <wizzermetimers> thanks
[06:22] <DBO> wizzermetimers, you can turn it off with its init script
[06:23] <wizzermetimers> well thanks for the help DBQ :)
[06:23] <DBO> DBO, not Q =)
[06:23] <pvd2006> im having a little problem here, I have to run firefox with sudo in order to use mplayer-plugin and other things like flash.  whats the best way to give me persmissions to fix this?
[06:23] <wizzermetimers> sorry, DBO :)
[06:23] <DBO> wizzermetimers, did it mount ok?
[06:23] <pvd2006> I tried to run sudo chmod 755 on the plugins
[06:23] <pvd2006> still doesnt work without sudo
[06:23] <elknof1> does anybody knows the line to restart Xserver??
[06:23] <DBO> elkbuntu, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[06:23] <pvd2006> something gdm restart I think
[06:24] <wizzermetimers> yes it did
[06:24] <DBO> wizzermetimers, good, best of luck with ubuntu =)
[06:24] <Apostle^> what you want and what you need don't mean that much to m
[06:24] <Apostle^> e
[06:24] <wizzermetimers> cheers
[06:24] <wizzermetimers> have a good day
[06:24] <evilelf> babo, from my understanding, you are currently building a web site/application. One of your tasks is known as QA (Quality Analysis, Testing purposes) and it requires the proper environment for you to test your work with. You should've setup a machine (Dual boot, different workstations, etc) and have a strict procedure defined so that you can guarentee your work. The alternatives proposed (wine, emulation) do not provide you a reliable debugging pla
[06:24] <evilelf> tform and certainly isn't acceptable in a professional environment.
[06:25] <DBO> evilelf, full emulation such as KQemu is quite reliable...
[06:25] <linux_galore> pvd2006: I had some weird problems with mplayer . I ended up copying /root/.mplayer/  to /home/username/  then  chwon -R username  /home/username/./mplayer  seemed to fix all the problems
[06:25] <evilelf> DBO, I wasn't aware of such.
[06:25] <elknof1> DBO: is that for Xserver restarting?
[06:25] <DBO> elknof1, yes
[06:26] <elknof1> DBO: thanx
[06:26] <linux_galore> pvd2006: sry   chown -R username /home/username/.mplayer/
[06:26] <evilelf> DBO, the only emulation platform that I'm aware of is "VMWare"
[06:26] <pvd2006> I see linux_galore, ill give it a try
[06:26] <DBO> evilelf, KQemu provides kernel virtualization, is relatively bugfree, and runs windows more stable than my native boot =P
[06:26] <linux_galore> pvd2006: basically root sets up a none restricted mplayer conf file but a user cant
[06:27] <nathansnook> have a question about repos?  are multiverse and universal saffe to use
[06:27] <DBO> nathansnook, yes
[06:27] <nathansnook> I was looking for mplayer and some other codecs.
[06:28] <linux_galore> pvd2006: so just copy the .mplayer/  folder in root to the users home directory and chown (change the ownership) and it works
[06:28] <KaosX> nathansnook, I havnt had any issues with either since ive switched to ubuntu
[06:28] <Madpilot> nathansnook, mplayer is in multiverse
[06:28] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell nathansnook about multiverse
[06:28] <linux_galore> nathansnook: if root can do somethings and a user cant its always a permissions problem
[06:29] <DBO> linux_galore, I dont know that I would always call that a problem =P
[06:29] <evilelf> DBO, Ohh, I know this a bit out of context and might be frowned uppon, but there is another OS called ReactOS that I've worked with (barely, not enough to provide a really objective and neutral analysis of) when it comes to debugging and testing. I've learned about it under a win32 asm code project I was leading a while back.
[06:29] <linux_galore> DBO: not but for new users its daunting
[06:29] <linux_galore> no*
[06:29] <pvd2006> linux_galore:  Id id what you said, restarted firefox, and tried to use a mplayer-plugin still doesnt work, anything else I need to do?
[06:30] <linux_galore> pvd2006: nothing to do with the plugin
[06:30] <evilelf> DBO, seriously some great platform for debugging and learning the insides of the evil empire. To be honest, it was more stable than win32
[06:30] <linux_galore> pvd2006: its a permissions problem
[06:30] <DBO> evilelf, i have heard of ReactOS, its supposed to be really nice, been thinking about throwing it in a VM for some time
[06:30] <meheren> how long does a normal update from breezy to dapper take?
[06:30] <KaosX> depends on your connection
[06:30] <navreet> meheren, after you've downloaded everything?
[06:30] <Madpilot> meheren, depends on how much you've got installed, and how fast your connection is
[06:31] <Samuli^> it depends greatly on your connection
[06:31] <babo> So will a bootdisk get an OS running in my VM ... ?
[06:31] <DBO> meheren, anywhere from 12 minutes to 12 years
[06:31] <meheren> nevreet, yes
[06:31] <Apostle^> meheren, an hour or two
[06:31] <babo> Like say, a bookdisk for WinXP from bootdisk.com ... ?
[06:31] <meheren> ok...
[06:31] <Samuli^> for me it took something like 20mins or maybe less.
[06:31] <navreet> meheren, I'd be interested in knowing too... I dunno man
[06:31] <KaosX> i did the latest flight update tonight only took about 30 minutes
[06:31] <pvd2006> sudo cp -R /root/.mplayer ~/.mplayer ; sudo chown -R username ~/.mplayer
[06:31] <meheren> becuase it's been running for about four hours now...
[06:31] <pvd2006> linux_galore:  that is what I did
[06:31] <DBO> meheren, you in the US?
[06:31] <Apostle^> evilelf, nice
[06:31] <meheren> that is four hours after it downloaded everything
[06:32] <meheren> DBO, yeh
[06:32] <meheren> why?
[06:32] <DBO> meheren, US servers are kinda slow, thats normal
[06:32] <Samuli^> US repos are down.
[06:32] <KaosX> 18 years ago, I was 3 years old
[06:32] <DBO> Samuli^, they are not down, just slow
[06:32] <meheren> DBO, i already downloaded everything
[06:32] <Samuli^> I heard they were down.
[06:32] <DBO> meheren, yeah, the install can take some time too, dont worry, just let it do its thing
[06:32] <linux_galore> pvd2006: takes a bit of getting used to with Linux if your a windows user but a user cant do what he wants with stuff outside of the /home/username account, the said user has to have the correct permissions and be part of the set applications groups
[06:32] <meheren> KaosX, 18 years ago i didn't exist lol
[06:32] <meheren> im only 16
[06:33] <evilelf> Apostle^, I am a genuine, Bona Fide, certified ASM/Verilog nutcase. May the MPLS label stack be with you my child as I will nullroute your packet before it even makes it to the kernel!
[06:33] <pvd2006> linux_galore: I know:0
[06:33] <pvd2006> :)*
[06:33] <pvd2006> but I did what you said
[06:33] <meheren> DBO, ok
[06:33] <linux_galore> pvd2006: your problem is the plugin is trying to access mplayers options that are restricted to root
[06:33] <Apostle^> evilelf, lmfao
[06:33] <sparkleytone> evilly.
[06:33] <pvd2006> linux_galore:   sudo cp -R /root/.mplayer ~/.mplayer ; sudo chown -R username ~/.mplayer
[06:33] <meheren> DBO, just seems odd since when i put ubuntu on this box it only took about three hours total to fresh install
[06:33] <pvd2006> but I put my username
[06:34] <pvd2006> of coruse
[06:34] <UNH2LY> hey
[06:34] <DBO> meheren, wow... three hours for a fresh install?  no wonder its taking 4 hours for the upgrade
[06:34] <linux_galore> pvd2006: did you run mplayer as root first as a standalone
[06:34] <meheren> it says 12 hours 12 mins remaining for about ohhh a couple of hours now
[06:34] <Apostle^> fresh install is 30 minutes for me
[06:34] <UNH2LY> anyone know why (im using VIA drivers for X) and whenever i try to load a 3D screensaver, everything locks up
[06:34] <KaosX> a fresh install for me is less than 30 minutes default
[06:34] <DBO> meheren, is it doing something?
[06:34] <KaosX> on my celeron box
[06:34] <Apostle^> UNH2LY, what kind of card
[06:34] <meheren> DBO, yeh lol pIII 800 mhz
[06:34] <evilelf> Talking about ASM, I've begun a project this evening that might be fun for the years to come. I'm building an advanced Assembly IDE.
[06:35] <meheren> DBO, not that i can tell form the term output
[06:35] <UNH2LY> its a via, here, ill get specs
[06:35] <DBO> meheren, what step is it on?
[06:35] <meheren> ah never mind it's workin like mad now
[06:35] <meheren> Installing software
[06:35] <DBO> meheren, well then just let er run
[06:35] <KaosX> 3GHZ, I got it for free from work...they said they couldnt find windows drivers for it and told me to throw it away...so i did....to my trunk.
[06:35] <meheren> ok
[06:35] <linux_galore> pvd2006: ~/  under sudo is /root
[06:36] <DBO> KaosX, I get similar deals working at a uni.  They toss stuff all the time... and my car plays dumpster for a day
[06:36] <linux_galore> pvd2006: use the full path
[06:36] <meheren> DBO, lol
[06:36] <Apostle^> KaosX, 3ghz celeron?
[06:36] <meheren> DBO, can't w8 till i get that...
[06:37] <meheren> Could not install the upgrades
[06:37] <meheren> The upgrade aborts now. Your system can be in an unusable state. A recovery was run (dpkg --configure -a).
[06:37] <UNH2LY> Apostle^, "It has a 1024 x 768-pixel resolution and is powered by the integrated VIA/S3G graphics/video card."
[06:37] <meheren> wt
[06:37] <pvd2006> ohhh
[06:37] <pvd2006> whops
[06:37] <meheren> wtf
[06:37] <UNH2LY> so says amazon
[06:37] <meheren> installArchives() failed
[06:37] <KaosX> I work at a software engineering place...theyre all .NET/Windows....Im a lone soul (osx/linux)
[06:37] <meheren> ?
[06:37] <KaosX> Im just a tech though, not a coder
[06:37] <Abountu> I have installed the JDK using Sun's install program, can anyone tell me how do I remove the gnu one, and configure my system (including open office) to use SUN's one?
[06:37] <DBO> meheren, put as much output as you can find in pastebin please
[06:37] <evilelf> (Supporting HLA, SDK Independant, Visual Studio feel with multi-programmer support, project management abilities, etc. - In other words, bloated and re-inventing the wheel)
[06:37] <meheren> that's everything
[06:37] <meheren> it gave me
[06:38] <meheren> ah you mean the term output?
[06:38] <pvd2006> linux_galore: still same problem
[06:38] <pvd2006> :-\
[06:38] <DBO> meheren, yes
[06:38] <pvd2006> do I need to restart anything besides firefox after that?
[06:38] <meheren> ok
[06:38] <meheren> nothing interesting
[06:38] <linux_galore> pvd2006: no
[06:38] <Samuli^> Abountu, to configure: sudo update-alternatices -config -java I think.
[06:38] <meheren> setting up synaptic is where it failed
[06:38] <Samuli^> or --config-java
[06:38] <jose> quien habla espaol
[06:39] <KaosX> Apostle...like 2.89 celeron...I just roll to 3 because it runs linux like a champ and i dont care about .10 mhz
[06:39] <DBO> !es
[06:39] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[06:39] <pvd2006> I also tried to sudo chmod 755 /mozilla-firefox/plugins as well
[06:39] <pvd2006> that didnt work either
[06:39] <evilelf> KaosX, who care's about the OS, as long as it fits the business unit requirements and keeps that payroll coming, let alone the fact that you're learning and hopefully have a passion for your the job scope you're covering, you should'nt worry ;)
[06:39] <donvella> one quick question, uncommenting, is that like ##??
[06:39] <meheren> DBO, ah won't let my select txt in the term output...
[06:39] <meheren> ill just tyep it all...
[06:39] <KaosX> I just had my final interview with Google today
[06:39] <linux_galore> pvd2006: only other option is to download the firefox binary tarball from the mozilla home page and unpack it under /home/username/  then put a link to your desktop or taskbar
[06:39] <Samuli^> Abountu, sudo update-alternatives --config java  that is.
[06:39] <pvd2006> linux_galore, I guess Ill just run it with sudo:-\
[06:39] <linux_galore> pvd2006: its actually what Im doing now
[06:40] <KaosX> Im bored to tears at the place Im at now, I was really surprised when Google called me for the first interview
[06:40] <UNH2LY> Apostle^, any ideas?
[06:40] <jose> sorry how doin for the configiure the totem
[06:40] <linux_galore> pvd2006: no permissions problems because everything is under the /home/username  directory
[06:40] <donvella> Anyone know how to uncomment?
[06:40] <pvd2006> linux_galore: yeah I understand
[06:40] <Apostle^> UNH2LY, that card doesn't sound very good, is it possible it doesn't do 3d?
[06:40] <Samuli^> donvella, what do you mean.
[06:40] <pvd2006> is it really that bad of a idea to run firefox with sudo?
[06:40] <Abountu> Samuli^, thanks (the correct synthax is sudo update-alternatives --verbose --config java
[06:40] <Abountu> )
[06:41] <paradizelost> pvd2006: you will lock out your profile.
[06:41] <linux_galore> pvd2006: no
[06:41] <Apostle^> pvd2006, could be
[06:41] <evilelf> KaosX, My views about some OS that I've been forced, therefore compelled often to contemplate murder on many occasions, to use cannot be expressed with words. Especially DG/UX, HP-UX and VMS.
[06:41] <donvella> in alot of help files it says to uncomment certain lines of code so they dont get used
[06:41] <Samuli^> Abountu, I didn't need the verbose.
[06:41] <linux_galore> pvd2006: but not a good idea
[06:41] <donvella> is that basically like going ## (code)
[06:41] <evilelf> KaosX, Interview at google?!
[06:41] <Apostle^> lol he got a yes a no and a could be
[06:41] <KaosX> yep
[06:41] <Samuli^> donvella, that's commenting.
[06:41] <KaosX> Ive had 3 interviews thus far
[06:41] <UNH2LY> Apostle^, its real possible, but maybe im over looking something
[06:41] <pvd2006> I guess ill just make a link to run firefox automatically with sudo if I want to use mplayer plugin or flash.
[06:41] <UNH2LY> heres the link to my exact lappy
[06:41] <pvd2006> and run it as regular username if im not running those
[06:42] <UNH2LY> http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BMXMFC/104-6200214-6253502?v=glance&n=541966
[06:42] <Samuli^> donvella, you tell with # that something is commented and should be ignored by the program.
[06:42] <KaosX> If/when I get the next callback its a flight to NY for the person to person stuff
[06:42] <whyami> where is the firefox components directory in breezy?
[06:42] <Abountu> Samuli^,  ok  (the "-config -java" needed tuning into "--config java" ;-) thanks very much
[06:42] <jose> I am a new user and I need help
[06:42] <whyami> !Realplayer
[06:42] <ubotu> rumour has it, realplayer is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[06:42] <Madpilot> KaosX & evilelf - chat to #ubuntu-offtopic, please
[06:42] <evilelf> Ohhh right
[06:42] <pvd2006> whyami, I dont think firefox has a components section does it?
[06:42] <Samuli^> Abountu, cool :P
[06:42] <donvella> Samuli^: so if something says # turn off light. the light will stay on?
[06:42] <Samuli^> donvella, yeah.
[06:42] <linux_galore> whyami: ?? the user config file or firefox itself
[06:42] <evilelf> Madkiss, terribly sorry, got carried away :)
[06:42] <donvella> Samuli^: cheers
[06:42] <pvd2006> but it would be in usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/ I think
[06:43] <Samuli^> donvella, it's called commenting because it's used to comment stuff like: #the next line does this and that
[06:43] <whyami> pvd2006: I dunno. I'm trying to install RealPlayer 10 as a plugin for Firefox. I'm following directions that tell me to copy a certain file into the mozilla components directory...
[06:43] <Abountu> when I lunch open office I get the following error, oocalc2
[06:43] <Abountu> [Java framework]  Error in function createUserSettingsDocument (elements.cxx).javaldx failed!
[06:43] <linux_galore> also depends if you update firefox as a user, if you do so its install firefox under ~/./mozilla/firefox/
[06:44] <pvd2006> whyami, you would put it in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins most likely I think for firefox.
[06:44] <Abountu> I just configured my java (thanks to Samuli^ help) n$ java -version
[06:44] <Abountu> java version "1.5.0_05"
[06:44] <Abountu> Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_05-b05)
[06:44] <Abountu> Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_05-b05, mixed mode, sharing)
[06:44] <Abountu> anyone has an idea?
[06:44] <Samuli^> Abountu, that isn't the newest one :/
[06:44] <whyami> pvd2006: okay but the instructions distinguish between the plugins directory and the components directory. I guess I'll try it though...
[06:44] <Abountu> what's do u mean?
[06:44] <pvd2006> I think the regular version of mozilla has a components dir, ill check  though
[06:45] <linux_galore> java version "1.5.0_06"
[06:45] <Samuli^> samuli@Unbearablevoid:~$ java -version
[06:45] <Samuli^> java version "1.5.0_06"
[06:45] <meheren> http://pastebin.com/727676 here
[06:45] <pvd2006> whyami, your right
[06:45] <pvd2006> there is a components section
[06:45] <meheren> DBO, http://pastebin.com/727676 here
[06:45] <whyami> oh actually there *is* a components directory in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox...
[06:45] <pvd2006> its /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/components
[06:45] <pvd2006> yueah
[06:46] <Apostle^> pete@Penguin:~$ java -version
[06:46] <Apostle^> java version "1.5.0_06"
[06:46] <Apostle^> ;-P
[06:46] <Abountu> Samuli^, and open office wouldn't work with 1.5.0_05?
[06:46] <DBO> meheren, oh my... yeah try running "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[06:46] <Samuli^> Abounto, I take it works.
[06:46] <meheren> ok
[06:46] <linux_galore> OOo 2.01 works fine with Java 1.5.06 here
[06:46] <Abountu> Samuli^ it's giving me error and it wouldn't lunch
[06:47] <Samuli^> Can you install java from the dapper repositories for breezy?
[06:47] <Samuli^> there's the newest one easily available.
[06:47] <meheren> DBO, well here goes nothing (again)
[06:47] <Abountu> linux_palore: open office isn't working, it says : [Java framework]  Error in function createUserSettingsDocument (elements.cxx).javaldx failed!
[06:47] <meheren> lol
[06:47] <Samuli^> Abountu, I doubt it's because your version of java.
[06:47] <klaxian> how can i be sure spamassassin is working?  i know it's running, but how do i know it's filtering?
[06:47] <linux_galore> Abountu: type whereis java
[06:48] <linux_galore> Abountu: should be in /usr/bin
[06:48] <technel``> Hello. I have Windows XP installed on a partition on this hard drive. I then booted into Ubuntu and used the remaining space and partitioned it off. I chose to install GRUB, but when I boot up, it doesn't come up. (NOTE: Apparently I am not installing this on my master drive)
[06:48] <meheren> why are all my fonts like umm dead...?
[06:48] <Abountu> $ whereis java
[06:48] <Abountu> java: /usr/bin/java /usr/bin/X11/java /usr/share/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz

[06:48] <Apostle^> technel``, need to install grub on your first HD
[06:49] <Abountu> linux_galore, I have java in usr/bin/  ..  which is expected no?
[06:49] <technel``> Apostle^, I am on the Live CD atm, I did "grub install /dev/hda", but it just comes up with this "grub>" cmd prompt =\

[06:49] <meheren> [roumer]  us servers are [/roumer]  they seem very fast to me...
[06:49] <meheren> ah
[06:49] <eggzeck> technel``: read the man page with 'man grub'
[06:49] <Abountu> how can I reinstall/reconfigure/update/fix open office?
[06:50] <meheren> *< not [

[06:50] <weerasinghes> my serial mouse doesnt seem to work, is there a howto for it?
[06:50] <meheren> linux_galor, why? would you run open office with sudo?
[06:50] <linux_galore> Abountu: that will tell you if its a permissions problem or if OOo is broken
[06:50] <jose> linux
[06:50] <technel``> Apostle^, Sure that is the trigger? Not getting a PM...
[06:51] <jose> quien me ayuda
[06:51] <Abountu> linux_galore... that works alright!, but then if I double click on a file it wouldn't open it!
[06:51] <Madpilot> Abountu, try opening Synaptic, searching for OpenOffice, and using the "reinstall" option
[06:51] <jose> alguien que sepa espaol
[06:51] <Madpilot> !es
[06:51] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[06:51] <eggzeck> Abountu: try: dpkg-reconfigure openoffice.org2
[06:51] <meheren> jose, #ubuntu-es
[06:51] <technel``> eggzeck, That doesn't really help, it just has the different parameters the grub command has
[06:51] <Abountu> eggzeck, Madpilot, thanks gus
[06:52] <Abountu>  eggzeck, Madpilot, thanks guys
[06:52] <jose> pido ayuda por favor
[06:52] <Madpilot> np
[06:52] <eggzeck> technel``: if you *did* indeed read it you would see it says: --install-partition=PAR
[06:52] <meheren> jose, #ubuntu-es!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[06:52] <meheren> !es
[06:52] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[06:52] <lastnode_> lo Madpilot, im stuck in shell. any idea what the xorg.conf attribute is to set my mouse to Serial?
[06:52] <eggzeck> technel``: so your command (the one you complained about) was INCORRECT
[06:52] <eggzeck> :)
[06:53] <Madpilot> lastnode_, no idea - I've never even owned a serial mouse...
[06:53] <Zelnen> So whats this channel about 0_0
[06:53] <meheren> anyone no why that after you get so tired you like can't sleep and don't feel tireed no more?
[06:54] <meheren> Zelnen, umm the OS ubunut
[06:54] <meheren> *ubuntu
[06:54] <meheren> lol
[06:54] <Madpilot> Zelnen, Ubuntu tech support, mostly
[06:54] <eggzeck> technel``: so what does that mean?
[06:55] <technel``> eggzeck, Ah, I see, sorry. I did see that, but I didn't really understand the description ("specify stage 2 install_partition [default=0x20000] "). But even if you do "grub install --install-partition=/dev/hda", the "grub>" prompt just comes up...what am I missing?
us servers ARE slow </notrumor>
[06:56] <DBO> meheren, yeah we know, its been that way for some time
[06:56] <Madpilot> meheren, read the /topic here
[06:56] <watson541>  technel'': why dont you try 'grub-install /dev/hda
[06:56] <eggzeck> technel``: it means to redo your code like this: grub --install-partition=/dev/hda
[06:56] <meheren> Madpilot, earlier i stated they were not
[06:56] <technel``> watson541, That was my original command, it does not work
[06:56] <meheren> they seemeed reletivally fast...
[06:56] <watson541> wierd, it always worked for me :(
[06:57] <watson541> anyways
[06:57] <watson541> hda isnt a partition its a hrd disk :)
[06:57] <watson541> so maybe you should specify a real aprtition :)
[06:57] <meheren> technel``: anythin wrong with technel ???
[06:57] <technel``> cfdisk won't run though =\
[06:57] <technel``> meheren, Well I think /dev/hda is incorrect
[06:58] <meheren> technel``: ... ?
[06:58] <watson541> try hda insead
[06:58] <watson541> err.. hda1
[06:58] <technel``> meheren, "fdisk" says I need to specify a drive, "fdisk /dev/hda1" says it isn't found, "cfdisk" says "Cannot open disk drive"
[06:58] <watson541> thats because HDA is the drive  not HDA!!!!
[06:58] <watson541> hda1 is a partition
[06:58] <meheren> can you open window in /dev ?
[06:59] <watson541> hda is the drive
[06:59] <meheren> see if theres a /dev/hda1 or two...
[06:59] <watson541> geez
[06:59] <meheren> or somethin remotelly close
[06:59] <watson541> people cant discern between partitions and hard drive.. tsk..tsk
[07:00] <technel``> Well, I wasn't sure, I tried both of them, but neither seemed to be successful
[07:00] <technel``> Unless "Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
[07:00] <technel``> " is a message of success =\
[07:00] <Samuli^> doesn't grub understand hd's and partions like HD0,0?
[07:00] <Samuli^> that would be hda1
[07:00] <technel``> watson541, I responded...I said that I tried both the drive and partition because I wasn't sure of the difference
[07:01] <technel``> "fdisk /dev/hda1" should return something if it exists, correct?
[07:01] <watson541> technel': no, because hda1 is a PARTITION NOT A DISK
[07:01] <linux_galore> Samuli^: correct grub is a bit weird it can depending on the command setup use both hda1 or hd0,0 but not in the conf file
[07:02] <technel``> watson541, But we want a partition, don't we? "--install-partition=PAR" (from man grub), so you are installing to a partition..
[07:03] <watson541> try /dev/hdc because ubuntu for some reason mixes up my dvd drive and hard drive, it names the cd drive hda and the hd hdc
[07:03] <phenom> Hello everyone :)
[07:03] <watson541> technel``<-- no you want to install to the MBR of the HARD DISK
[07:03] <phenom> Can someone help me get the taskbar in Wine to show up please?
[07:03] <watson541> since when does a MBR reside on a partition?!
[07:03] <Samuli^> watson541, It can.
[07:03] <technel``> watson541, But then why is the parameter "--install-partition"?
[07:03] <nomin> how will ubuntu 6.06 be better than previous releases?
[07:03] <Kr0ntab> sup folks
[07:04] <eggzeck> phenom: wine has a taskbar?
[07:04] <Samuli^> watson541, many people have partition just for grub.
[07:04] <watson541> technel``: i dont know because i never had to use that flag, i always used 'grub-install /dev/hda'
[07:04] <phenom> eggzeck, my taskbar is not showing in Wine though?
[07:04] <linux_galore> technel``: ok  hda hdb   are hardisks,  now say i want to see the first partition on the first hardisk I look at hda1, now another quirk is the MBR isnt on a partition its on the first sector on the primary master hardisk ie hda  not the first partition
[07:04] <eggzeck> phenom: again, wine has a taskbar?
[07:04] <phenom> eggzeck, As far as I've read, yes it does :)
[07:05] <watson541> technel``<-- my guess is, that flag is used for just that..installing to a partition, but are you sure thats what you want to do?!
[07:05] <technel``> watson541, Now when I run that command it says mkdir: cannot create directory `/boot/grub': Permission denied
[07:05] <phenom> taskbar/toolbar.. the bar at the bottom of the screen
[07:05] <watson541> technel``: i hate to ask, but are you running this as sudo or root?
[07:05] <technel``> linux_galore, When I installed the drives, I thought the 160gb was master and 30gb was slave, but according to Ubuntu, it is the other way around
[07:05] <eggzeck> phenom: I think you're incorrect :)
[07:06] <phenom> eggzeck, enlighten me
[07:06] <technel``> watson541, I have not used the ubuntu boot disk before, I don't know how to get in as root
[07:06] <linux_galore> technel``: check the jumpers on the hardisk, master is defined by that
[07:06] <technel``> linux_galore, If I have everything installed though, won't that mix it all up?
[07:06] <Samuli^> technel``, just use sudo.
[07:06] <phenom> technel, rtfm
[07:06] <linux_galore> technel``: yep
[07:06] <phenom> technel, Thats what I did and it was easy!
[07:06] <watson541> technel``: well im going to go on a limb here and say you aint gonna get grub installed utnil you figure out how to sudo or login as root :)
[07:07] <phenom> technel, You need to edit your root password
[07:07] <linux_galore> technel``: sounds like you have the jumpers setup wrong or if you have in auto detect mode then you have the wrong cable on the wrong drive
[07:07] <technel``> phenom, The Debian/Ubuntu manual?
[07:07] <wizzermetimers> hey fellas, whats the name of the gnome app that you can use to change your screen resolution
[07:07] <eggzeck> phenom: read more about wine.
[07:07] <wegstar> help!..
[07:07] <wegstar> I ran apt-get -f install
[07:07] <wegstar> and it uninstalled everything..
[07:07] <wegstar> It told me that I should run that comand to fix some dependency errors
[07:07] <wegstar> now I can't use it anymore...
[07:07] <technel``> /dev/mapper/casper-snapshot does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
[07:07] <technel``>  in response to sudo grub-install /dev/hda
[07:07] <watson541> wegstar: ROFL
[07:07] <Samuli^> wegstar, shit..
[07:08] <wegstar> ?
[07:08] <wegstar> why?
[07:08] <Samuli^> wegstar, you don't have apt-get anymore?
[07:08] <wegstar> I dunno
[07:08] <wegstar> I'm stuck at a brown screen
[07:08] <Samuli^> wegstar, see if you can get to command line.
[07:09] <Samuli^> maybe use failsafe mode at grub.
[07:09] <technel``> linux_galore, Ok, so if I check the HD jumpers and they are wrong, switch them, is that going to screw up my partition on my second hard drive and my larger one with XP on it?
[07:09] <GaiaX11> technel``, if you want to use root, just do:  sudo passwd root
[07:09] <wegstar> got to command line... ctrl+alt+ f1 or something.. and yes, apt-get is still there...
[07:09] <Mysta> d
[07:09] <linux_galore> technel``: yes
[07:09] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: you don't have to incluse 'root' to do that :)
[07:09] <Samuli^> wegstar, do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:09] <technel``> GaiaX11, Ah, nice
[07:09] <wegstar> ok...
[07:09] <Samuli^> or kubuntu- if you prefer KDE
[07:09] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: sudo passwd (will do) just fyi
[07:10] <wegstar> ok
[07:10] <wegstar> but why does it tell me to do apt-get -f install?
[07:10] <Samuli^> wegstar, you have broken packages.
[07:10] <GaiaX11> But, sometimes i need to use root
[07:10] <Samuli^> or apt-get thinks you do anyways.
[07:10] <technel``> Alright, let me look around. Thanks everyone
[07:10] <GaiaX11> Because sudo su
[07:10] <GaiaX11> does not work
[07:10] <wegstar> nut apparently that doesn't solve the problem..
[07:10] <wegstar> but*
[07:11] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: you didn't understand what I meant. =)
[07:11] <phenom> technel, http://ubuntuguide.org/#setchangeenablerootpassword
[07:11] <phenom> lol dangit.. that was the tutorial for making root also
[07:11] <Samuli^> wegstar.. well no.. it seems you have really badly broken dependencies.
[07:11] <wegstar> How would I solve these broken dependencies without running that command?
[07:11] <Samuli^> wegstar.. there's no easy way I think.
[07:12] <wegstar> oh
[07:12] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: running 'sudo passwd' does essentially the same as 'sudo passwd root'. And another thing, you do not need to 'sudo su', just 'su' heh.
[07:12] <GaiaX11> Do you mean about the other way of accessing root.  Didn't you?
[07:12] <Samuli^> wegstar, but ask around, maybe someone knows a solution.
[07:12] <GaiaX11> You are right
[07:12] <Samuli^> wegstar, my solution is to uninstall what apt-get -f install wants and then install ubuntu-desktop again.
[07:13] <GaiaX11> But, I set up a new passwd for root
[07:13] <wegstar> Samuli^: no risk of removing my current data?
[07:13] <wegstar> i.e. word documents..?
[07:13] <GaiaX11> Apart from the same user pass
[07:13] <Samuli^> wegstar, to be sure you'd probably better of to make backup of your home folder.
[07:13] <wegstar> ok
[07:13] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: *sish*, nvm, you don't seem to understand.
[07:14] <eggzeck> oops, I meant *sigh*
[07:14] <GaiaX11> I understood!
[07:14] <GaiaX11> There are different ways of doing the same thing in the world, eggzeck
[07:16] <babo> Which one is Ubuntu 5.10 ?
[07:16] <humbraro> breezy
[07:16] <wegstar> Samuli^: Since the comp doesn't have an internet connection, I have been transferring .deb files to it and installing stuff with dpkg... could this be causing the broken dependencies?
[07:17] <babo> Is dapper out yet ?
[07:17] <Madpilot> !dapper
[07:17] <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 when it is released :-) BUT not until then
[07:17] <humbraro> babo: slated for june 1, but very usable now
[07:17] <Samuli^> wegstar, yes!
[07:17] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: correct, but why do this: tar --xtract --verbose --gunzip <file> when you can do this: tar -xvzf <file> ;)
[07:17] <wegstar> oh.
[07:17] <wegstar> I install an app, and it would say this and this is not found and so I find that package and install it..
[07:18] <babo> humbraro: hmm ... usable for a laptop ?
[07:18] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: that was just an example of showing you how "typing less" is always better ;)
[07:18] <Samuli^> wegstar, but it's impossible to keep up with the updates like that.
[07:18] <humbraro> babo: can't comment on that since i don't run it on a laptop
[07:18] <wegstar> so I should use apt-get, always?
[07:18] <GaiaX11> eggzeck, just to know the two ways. Which is not a bad thing! :-)
[07:18] <Sandy16> wen i try to install wine its NOT working...
[07:18] <Samuli^> wegstar, maybe you can solve the whole thing my plugging your ubuntu-comp into internet and updating everything.
[07:19] <wegstar> ok
[07:19] <nomin> since the next ubuntu installs in a live session, is it possible to surf the internet while it is installing?
[07:19] <wegstar> apt-get upgrade?
[07:19] <babo> humbraro: so if I install dapper now, the only difference between it and the release version will be some updates (which I can just click to install right ?)
[07:19] <wegstar> or something else?
[07:19] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: *sigh*, it isn't bad, but kind of silly heh. Besides if you want to know "the two ways", read man pages.
[07:20] <humbraro> babo: pretty much, but be aware that there are lots of updates currently
[07:20] <nomin> I think it could be useful to be able to look up information on the internet during the installation process.
[07:20] <GaiaX11> Perhaps what is silly for you is not silly for other people. ;-)
[07:21] <Sandy16> how can i install wine on debian
[07:21] <eggzeck> Sandy16: /j #debian
[07:21] <GaiaX11> And you are out of topic
[07:21] <eggzeck> heh
[07:21] <HymnToLife> Sandy16> this is _not_ #debin
[07:21] <Sandy16> i am sorrry ...how can i install wine on ubuntu
[07:21] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: who? you are too ;)
[07:21] <HymnToLife> !wina
[07:21] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, HymnToLife
[07:21] <GaiaX11> I don't want to be kicked away from the channel
[07:21] <HymnToLife> !wine
[07:22] <HymnToLife> !tell Sandy16 about wine
[07:22] <GaiaX11> I already know that you are the "guru" here.
[07:22] <l> is anyone else having trouble with firefox crashing repeatedly?
[07:22] <babo> humbraro: what do you mean exactly ?
[07:22] <GaiaX11> So. Stop. Please
[07:23] <babo> I'm trying to open a file in myplayer ... but the directory shows up as empty when I navigate to it using mplayers open file ... ?
[07:23] <Samuli^> I, yeah.
[07:23] <Samuli^> I think it's because I don't have enough memory.
[07:23] <humbraro> babo: since dapper is still officially in development, you can count on installing updates every day
[07:23] <Samuli^> humbraro, that's an understatement :)
[07:23] <babo> humbraro: oh, ok thanks :-)
[07:23] <humbraro> babo: it'll slow down a bit once its released
[07:23] <humbraro> Samuli^: amen
[07:24] <babo> my .WMV file just shows up as bytecode when I click on it ?
[07:24] <Samuli^> since dapper is in development, you can count on installing NUMEROUS updates a day and rebooting every two days :)
[07:24] <babo> I have it on an apache server ...
[07:24] <eggzeck> GaiaX11: sorry you feel that way, was just trying to help you and not make you say lame things hehe
[07:24] <HymnToLife> !tell babo about w32codecs
[07:25] <yuheng108> my xmms play list can't show chinese
[07:25] <yuheng108> does anyone know how to fix that?
[07:25] <humbraro> babo: breezy is *very* stable, but a little outdated, dapper is in development, so you have a higher chance of running into problems
[07:25] <babo> HymnToLife: no, I don't think it's a codecs issue, same thing happens when I use my windows box. Plus I can view other movies fine ...
[07:25] <humbraro> babo: but if you're brave and want to contribute bug reports and its ilk, you'll love dapper
[07:26] <GaiaX11> That's ok. Let's be friends. I think it would be the right thing to do :-)
[07:26] <HymnToLife> babo > then maybe your file ins simply corrupted
[07:26] <yuheng108> I am uer dapper it's good
[07:26] <yuheng108> but it can't show chinese on the xmms playlist but show at other places
[07:26] <yuheng108> please help me
[07:26] <humbraro> yuheng108: yup, best distro i've ever used - since '99
[07:27] <scanwinder> is there a way to lock the keyboard/mouse? so i have to press a combination of keys to unlock? - i want it so i dont have to type in my long password, just like ctrl-alt-something
[07:27] <Madpilot> yuheng108, join #ubuntu+1 for Dapper issues
[07:27] <yuheng108> oo.......thanks Madpilot
[07:28] <babo> HymnToLife, hmmm ... i don't think so ... I want to view i locally but mplayer can't read the folder it's in for some reason ... it's not a permission problem either. Mplayer just thinks the folder is empty when it isn't ...
[07:29] <lastnode_> im having problems getting my serial mouse working. can anyonehelp?
[07:29] <yahoo> hell all
[07:29] <spikeb> hell to you too ;)
[07:29] <yahoo> oops
[07:29] <yahoo> lool
[07:29] <yahoo> sorry
[07:29] <yahoo> lool
[07:30] <wegstar> Samuli^: umm.. apt-get just says that ubuntu-desktop depends on some packages, but it is not going to install them...
[07:30] <yahoo> forgot the o :)
[07:30] <yahoo> i've installed ubuntu on my laptop and soundcard didnt work, how to get it working ? how to know it's chipset name so i can start searching
[07:30] <Samuli^> wegstar.. why note?
[07:30] <Samuli^> -e
[07:31] <wegstar> dunno
[07:31] <varsendagger> what up homies?
[07:31] <wegstar> it says Depends on : Python.. blah blah, but it will not be installed
[07:31] <zoe> hey, need help...  I just installed a new HD so as to have more space.  I want the new space to be easily usable by all users (a folder in their regular home directory) I try to acheive this using links, but no luck.  Is this done by mounting a folder on the new drive within another?  is that a bad idea?  suggestions?)
[07:31] <spikeb> is there any way to see what changed in versions of packages? like a changelog command?
[07:31] <spikeb> zoe: mount the new drive somewhere with read/write permissions for everyone
[07:32] <wegstar> so..
[07:32] <phenom> Hello again
[07:32] <zoe> spikeb: right,  I have it mounted in /mnt/storage... but is there no way to link a directory within home folders to the space on the new drive.
[07:32] <phenom> How do I add parameters to a program without doing it in a terminal?
[07:33] <GaiaX11> yahoo, do this:  lspci|grep audio
[07:33] <spikeb> zoe: sure, make the directory in the new space, and then link it to the home dir
[07:33] <glauc> hey, how can I time how long a command takes to execute?
[07:33] <spikeb> zoe: and make sure the permissions are right
[07:33] <phenom> like if I wanted to ass -opengl to a file so it would launch the file with that parameter when I double click it
[07:33] <wegstar> :9
[07:33] <humbraro> glauc man time
[07:33] <yahoo> GaiaX11, nothing
[07:33] <glauc> k thx
[07:34] <GaiaX11> yahoo, do this:  lspci
[07:34] <GaiaX11> And scroll down and up
[07:34] <glauc> thats exactly what I wanted, thanks again
[07:34] <humbraro> glauc: sorry for the crappy answer, but i don't know the specifics of the program
[07:34] <phenom> Any help?
[07:34] <yahoo> GaiaX11, i did, nothing about sound, audi ...
[07:34] <glauc> nope thats flawless, i'm doing some benchmarking on my software raid setup
[07:34] <wegstar> help.... :(
[07:34] <zoe> spikeb: perhaps I am doing this backwards,  the target is the home directory, and the link is in the new space?
[07:35] <spikeb> zoe: no, you had it right
[07:35] <spikeb> zoe: i think
[07:35] <spikeb> heh
[07:36] <GaiaX11> yahoo, lshw
[07:36] <yahoo> GaiaX11, dont have that command
[07:36] <glauc> strangely my SATA raid 1 is slower than my PATA raid 1
[07:37] <Xichtli> whoa what is this
[07:37] <GaiaX11> yahoo, install it then
[07:37] <babo> how do you forceably unmount a usb drive ?
[07:37] <yahoo> is it the package name ?
[07:37] <wegstar> Samuli^: soo....?
[07:38] <Xichtli> ok ok is this the place to ask Ubuntu questions?
[07:38] <Xichtli> hi all
[07:38] <phenom> In Ubuntu how do I make a excuteable automatically run whith a preset parameter that I choose?
[07:38] <Xichtli> wow life exists here
[07:39] <eggzeck> phenom: read about cronjobs, or read 'man crontab'
[07:39] <humbraro> phenom: they don't work like that, but you can set up an "alias:
[07:39] <humbraro> phenom: er, "alias"
[07:39] <babo> how do I find out what my usb drive is mounted as ?
[07:40] <Xichtli> babo just run mount in a terminal window
[07:40] <watson541> babo: type ' mount'
[07:40] <babo> ok cool thanks ...
[07:40] <phenom> humbraro, how do I use aliases?
[07:41] <GaiaX11> yahoo, I mean install that command then
[07:41] <UNH2LY> whats everyone
[07:41] <UNH2LY> *whats up everyone
[07:41] <humbraro> phenom: you use them at the command line, or put them into your .bashrc
[07:41] <iand> hallo
[07:42] <humbraro> as an example, the 'ls' command doesn't by default show directories and such in different colors
[07:42] <Xichtli> i have been using ubuntu for about 12 days
[07:42] <humbraro>  but if you do a 'alias ls='ls --color' ' it'll show ls in color from now on
[07:43] <Samuli^> wegstar, did you update already?
[07:43] <humbraro> and you can do thos sorts of things with any command
[07:43] <wegstar> It refuses to update
[07:43] <eggzeck> humbraro: I believe in Ubuntu it does :)
[07:43] <Samuli^> wegstar, so umm.. what does apt-get -f install say now?
[07:43] <wegstar> remove 162 MB of stuff
[07:43] <humbraro> eggzeck: check out your ~/.bashrc and you will see that exact entry in there to make it default
[07:43] <spikeb> oh dear
[07:44] <blank_> !restricted
[07:44] <ubotu> restricted is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[07:44] <phenom> humbraro, I'm new to Linux :)
[07:44] <humbraro> i might be guilty of using a bad example though :)
[07:44] <phenom> humbraro, That didn't make sense
[07:44] <eggzeck> humbraro: I don't have to check it. I was telling you that I think in Ubuntu there is already an alias for 'ls', alias='ls --color=auto' ;)
[07:44] <Samuli^> wegstar, well I can't tell you any easy way.. Remove what apt-get wants and then install ubuntu-desktop again.
[07:44] <eggzeck> humbraro: by default :)
[07:44] <whitesuit> hi, anyone solved the sound out of sync problem with flash videos?
[07:45] <humbraro> hehe
[07:45] <wegstar> hmm
[07:45] <iand> does anyone know if the opengl libraries work the same on all platforms?
[07:45] <wegstar> I can't back up my home directory right now...
[07:45] <humbraro> ok, phenom, i'm gonna pm you and we'll get this worked out
[07:45] <Samuli^> you have broken dependecies because of the way you did stuff and I'm guessing that's what you must do to get that solved.
[07:45] <iand> or do they have different commands?
[07:46] <Xichtli> sometimes my desktop managerm icewm refuses to log me off
[07:46] <Xichtli> then i am forced to sudo shurtdown
[07:46] <Xichtli> isnt that strange??
[07:47] <RoninGurl> can someone refresh my memory how you can find a file in bash if you know the name but not the directory. its something like "find . -name 'file'"
[07:48] <Xichtli> does anyone else use icewm ??
[07:48] <Xichtli> find / -name filename
[07:48] <watson541> RoninGurl: i always use the 'locate' database, 'locate -u' ro index then 'locate <file>'
[07:49] <RoninGurl> yah well the server doesnt use locate.
[07:49] <watson541> shucks
[07:49] <watson541> I can never remember the find command either, thats why i use locate :)
[07:49] <spikeb> find / -name file
[07:49] <Xichtli> exactly what i say
[07:49] <babo> damn, how do I mount my usb ? I've looked in /var/log/dmesg and it doesn't suggest which dev my usb is at ... ? Shouldn't it be detected automatically ?
[07:49] <GaiaX11> RoninGurl, find . -name 'file' will serch in the current directory
[07:50] <iand> what is the command for deleting a whole directory?
[07:50] <whitesuit> no one knows the solution to the sound/flahs problem?
[07:50] <watson541> i wonder if i could turn that find command into an alias while we're on the subject :)
[07:50] <Xichtli> rm -r is recursive, allowing you to remove a whole directory
[07:50] <Zane42> I have a gig of ram, how much swap do I need if any?
[07:50] <RoninGurl> r will bug you a lot
[07:50] <iand> including the directory itself?
[07:50] <Xichtli> <- no sound
[07:50] <RoninGurl> use -fr *
[07:50] <RoninGurl> while inside the directory
[07:51] <iand> ok
[07:51] <Madpilot> Zane42, with 1Gb, you probably don't need any - my box runs fine on 1Gb w/ no swap...
[07:51] <Xichtli> <- wish he had a gig of ram
[07:51] <Xichtli> babo i use usb drives
[07:51] <iand> i would like to anounce that i am now accepting ram donations
[07:52] <Xichtli> i remember editing my fstab file
[07:52] <Zane42> Second question.  If I want to convert from reiser to ext3 so I can better handle large video files, how would I go about that?
[07:52] <Sandy16> how can i send a message to another user (if he is conneted thrugh GUI) just like write in the terminal
[07:53] <watson541> lol, i did this 'alias look='find / -name'  :) so i dont have to remember
[07:53] <humbraro> watson541: alias look='find / -name $1'
[07:53] <watson541> isit case sensitive though?
[07:53] <humbraro> ok, that was wierd
[07:54] <RoninGurl> found it! its "find . -name "filename" - print"
[07:54] <humbraro> watson541: it ought to be
[07:54] <watson541> humbraro: it is but i dont want it to be
[07:54] <RoninGurl> and thats recursive too.
[07:54] <jeiky> what tool do i use to reformat this partition on my external hard drive?
[07:54] <watson541> thats funny we both thought of the same name for the alias!
[07:54] <watson541> i swear i was up in my backlog when i typed that so i didnt see
[07:54] <humbraro> watson541: well, all unix filenames are case-sensitive, maybe somebody more knowledgable than I can figure that out
[07:55] <FreeZey> hey whats the command to gui reconfigure ur xorg.conf
[07:55] <watson541> humbraro: well i knew that part, i just need to make the find command not case sensitiver, so if i search for 'foo' it will show me 'foo' and 'Foo' :)
[07:55] <spikeb> few
[07:55] <spikeb> hmm
[07:55] <Madpilot> watson541, "man find" - I'm sure there's a switch for that
[07:56] <watson541> yeah umm, we dont suggest man pages here, i lready got in trouble for that the other day :)
[07:56] <watson541> i know how to use man as we al do, i just wondered if anyone knew offhand
[07:56] <humbraro> watson541: what Madpilot  said, or you could use regular-expression voodoo, which is over my head
[07:56] <lakcaj> watson541: find -iname
[07:56] <lakcaj> find ./ -iname "*blah*"
[07:56] <lakcaj> for example
[07:57] <RoninGurl> lakcaj, i already found the command. its  "find . -name "filename" - print"
[07:57] <phenom> humbraro, did you get my response in the IM?
[07:57] <watson541> lakcaj: thank you, i will try that one, big help, im not in the mood for man-page diving atm :)
[07:57] <humbraro> phenom: no...hmm
[07:57] <squiggly>  DANCE DANCE
[07:57] <watson541> if it wa something i seriously wanted/needed i would do it on my own, but this is something that just popped out of me watching the conversation :)
[07:58] <humbraro> phenom: do you have a button with my name on it?
[07:58] <phenom> Yes
[07:58] <lakcaj> FreeZey: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:58] <humbraro> strange that i can't see what you typed
[07:59] <RoninGurl> some jerk decided to get infected with the PHP.RSTBackdoor virus.
[07:59] <babo> Ubuntu/gnome won't detect my usb drive ?
[07:59] <humbraro> phenom: so screw pm chat then
[07:59] <humbraro> what would you like to have done?
[07:59] <UNH2LY> babo, always does mine
[08:00] <FreeZey> lakcaj: thanks dude i am just installed dapper right now and i forgot that dam coomand
[08:00] <squiggly>  /thumbdrive, babo
[08:00] <squiggly> make sure you mount it
[08:00] <UNH2LY> gnome mounts it for you
[08:00] <UNH2LY> should show up on the desktop
[08:00] <squiggly> haven't used ubuntu in a while, but i'm pretty sure thats it
[08:00] <UNH2LY> or show up in /media
[08:00] <waky> yes
[08:00] <waky> ubuntu mount the usb stick
[08:00] <waky> you must only wait
[08:01] <GaiaX11> RoninGurl, Are talking about this virus in Linux?
[08:01] <phenom> humbraro: I am trying to get Wine to run Warcraft 3 with the -opengl parameter so it plays smoothly, not 1FPS
[08:02] <squiggly> anyone know any good python channels besides the one on freenode?
[08:02] <humbraro> ok, i have absolutely no experience with warcraft or its options, so take the following with a large bucket of salt
[08:02] <phenom> hehe ok
[08:02] <babo> squiggly, ?
[08:02] <phenom> same thing as running other apps with parameters
[08:03] <iand> you also have to edit a file to make it do opengl
[08:03] <humbraro> phenom: exactly, just that we want to make it more permanent
[08:03] <iand> i dont recall what it was though
[08:03] <babo> ok, but what if gnome doesn't mount it ?
[08:03] <phenom> Yes
[08:03] <stjepan> do you use sudo? Isn't sudo very insecure? Malicious software can easily get root access with sudo. Isn't this dangerous?
[08:03] <iand> well you gotta do it somehow
[08:04] <Sandy16> how can i open flash files on ubuntu Dapper Drake
[08:04] <spikeb> !flash
[08:04] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:04] <FreeZey> any1 install dapper yet?
[08:04] <humbraro> so, you want to open up /home/phenom/.bashrc
[08:04] <FreeZey> i got a question for why its hanging on this dam package
[08:04] <humbraro> and it'll have lots of stuff in it already
[08:04] <spikeb> FreeZey: i have
[08:04] <wegstar> Samuli^, it's installing... and apparently the problem is fixed
[08:04] <humbraro>  at the end of the file, enter this:
[08:04] <GaiaX11> FreeZey, me too
[08:04] <phenom> Done
[08:05] <FreeZey> spikeb: it says unpacking replacement hplip-data
[08:05] <FreeZey> because the install failed originally
[08:05] <FreeZey> so i had re run the command
[08:05] <humbraro> alias mynewwarcraftcommand='warcraft --option1 --option2 --etc'
[08:05] <humbraro> phenom: see what i mean?
[08:05] <phenom> Yes
[08:05] <humbraro> cool
[08:05] <spikeb> FreeZey: i never ran into problems
[08:06] <humbraro> try that out and lemme know if it works
[08:06] <FreeZey> i have no idea why its runnin into this damproblem tho
[08:06] <FreeZey> makes no sense
[08:06] <phenom> so mynewwarcraft command can can be "playwarcraft" and the ='warcraft is the directory where the warcraft EXE is?
[08:07] <FreeZey> whats the command to completey remove the install and start out fresh?
[08:07] <FreeZey> would it just be like
[08:07] <humbraro> phenom: no, its the warcraft executable file
[08:07] <phenom> ok
[08:07] <humbraro> phenom: i don't know what its really called, since i don't play it
[08:07] <phenom> warcraft3.exe :)
[08:08] <humbraro> so i wasn't that far off :)
[08:08] <FreeZey> cause when it broke i ran sudp apt-get install -f
[08:08] <Samuli^> wegstar, cool :)
[08:08] <killapop> FreeZey: apt-get remove packagename
[08:08] <wegstar> :).. I just hope the installation of ubuntu-desktop doesn't replace my Desktop folder ;)
[08:08] <FreeZey> yeah i know that command
[08:08] <spikeb> wegstar: it doesn't
[08:09] <phenom> Humbraro, so this would work? alias warcraft='war3.exe -opengl
[08:09] <phenom> All I would have to do is type in war3.exe?
[08:09] <wegstar> yay!
[08:09] <FreeZey> i don;t even know the dam package name for dapper tho
[08:09] <humbraro> phenom: if it's an .exe, its probably not in your "path"
[08:09] <phenom> So I would have to point directally to it instead of just ufing the file name
[08:09] <humbraro> phenom: so use the "absolute" path, i.e. /path/to/windows/directory/which/contains/warcraft.exe
[08:10] <killapop> FreeZey: did u install using dpkg?
[08:10] <FreeZey> first i did gksudo
[08:10] <FreeZey> then i just ran strait sudo
[08:10] <humbraro> phenom: so, alias warcraft='wine /media/windows/warcraft.exe --options --opengl'
[08:11] <UNH2LY> i did my dapper upgrade from breezy by replacing breezy with dapper in sources.list
[08:11] <killapop> FreeZey: with dpkg to install the package?
[08:11] <UNH2LY> then i did like a dist-upgrade
[08:11] <UNH2LY> ...i think, cant totally remember
[08:11] <UNH2LY> been running it for a few months
[08:11] <paul_> what you guys talking about?
[08:11] <FreeZey> well no i ran the apt get
[08:11] <FreeZey> no dpkg at all
[08:11] <paul_> not to crowbar myself into your conversation
[08:12] <killapop> FreeZey: then apt-get remove should do it
[08:12] <UNH2LY> well yeah, thats what i meant apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:12] <FreeZey> yeah but whats the package name
[08:12] <Madpilot> paul_, #ubuntu is a tech support channel for Ubuntu, mostly. If you just want to chat, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:12] <FreeZey> dist-upgrade didn;t work for me
[08:12] <humbraro> phenom: lemme know how that works out, and i'll be back in a minute
[08:12] <killapop> FreeZey: hplip-data?
[08:12] <FreeZey> yeah
[08:12] <FreeZey> now it won;t even run tho
[08:12] <FreeZey> to finish the install
[08:12] <paul_> how do i get there?
[08:13] <killapop> FreeZey: what is it... some printer drivers?
[08:13] <FreeZey> no idea wtf it is
[08:13] <squiggly> if you're using an HP printer, you probably won't be able to get it to run under ubuntu
[08:13] <Madpilot> paul_, type "/join #ubuntu-offtopic" (without the quotes)
[08:13] <phenom> Humbraro, No such file or directory?
[08:13] <killapop> FreeZey: so why u intalling it
[08:13] <squiggly> newer ones anyway
[08:13] <FreeZey> cause it comes with the upgrade
[08:13] <FreeZey> i just let it install all the packages
[08:13] <squiggly> propietary drivers &etc
[08:13] <Madpilot> squiggly, HP printers usually do fine in Linux...
[08:14] <squiggly> Madpilot, I haven't gotten my Deskjet to run under Linux
[08:14] <killapop> squiggly: yup.. they work for me too
[08:14] <Madpilot> squiggly, my HP Deskjet 5740 runs just fine
[08:14] <squiggly> i have to run some crap that i downloaded from their website to use my printer
[08:14] <squiggly> i'm using a 3930
[08:14] <iand> hp laptops are awful though
[08:15] <killapop> FreeZey: did it go thru with the upgrade?
[08:15] <FreeZey> no thats what i am sayin it failed on me
[08:15] <FreeZey> i wanna remove the whole upgrade
[08:15] <FreeZey> the entire thing
[08:15] <FreeZey> i want to take it off
[08:15] <FreeZey> start fresh
[08:15] <wegstar> cool.. everything's fine now...
[08:15] <phenom> Humbraro, nogo
[08:15] <FreeZey> whats the command for that
[08:15] <stjepan> do you use sudo? Isn't sudo very insecure? Malicious software can easily get root access with sudo. Isn't this dangerous?
[08:16] <spikeb> stjepan: yes, no, no it can't, no it isn't.
[08:16] <Madpilot> stjepan, read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo please - you're wrong about sudo...
[08:16] <killapop> FreeZey: if it didnt go thru... it might not have installed all the packages for the upgrade...
[08:16] <varsendagger> !cvs
[08:16] <ubotu> from memory, cvs is the Concurrent Versions System, the dominant open-source network-transparent version control system; it helps to manage releases and to control concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors. See: https://www.cvshome.org/
[08:17] <FreeZey> killapop: i know it didn't install everything what i am asking is how do i remov all of it
[08:17] <humbraro> phenom: how do you normally run warcraft?
[08:17] <Madpilot> squiggly, the 3930 isn't listed at linuxprinting.org, but the 3920 & 3940 are both listed as working "Mostly" with the free HP-supplied drivers...
[08:17] <killapop> FreeZey: sorry... I've never come across that situation... wont be able to help ya!
[08:17] <squiggly> Hum...
[08:17] <FreeZey> ok
[08:17] <humbraro> phenom: like, do you run a command from a terminal, or double-click on an icon, etc
[08:17] <squiggly> anyone know of any Python channels besides the one on this network?
[08:18] <phenom> Humbraro, Terminal, I'd like to make it an Icon for double clicking tho
[08:18] <humbraro> phenom: ok, alias first, icon second :)'
[08:18] <phenom> ok im trying to make the alias
[08:18] <killapop> FreeZey: one question tho- did u run dist-upgrade using the repositories from the newer version
[08:19] <phenom> Humbraro, alias warcraft="/home/phenom/Desktop/Documents/Games/Warcraft/war3.exe"
[08:19] <killapop> FreeZey: in ur sources list
[08:19] <FreeZey> the command i ran when i wanted to upgrade was gksudo "update-manager -d"
[08:19] <FreeZey> thats all i ran
[08:19] <humbraro> phenom: you need to put the --opengl option after that
[08:19] <phenom> Humbraro, I'm just trying to get the alias to run befor I worrie about performance hehe
[08:20] <humbraro> and its single quotes, not double
[08:20] <humbraro> so ' not "
[08:20] <varsendagger> how the heck do i use cvs?
[08:21] <killapop> FreeZey: then ur safe i think.. cos the -d switch is just to check if upgrading to the latest devel release is possible or not
[08:21] <killapop> FreeZey: it doesnt do the upgrade itself
[08:21] <FreeZey> something i wrong
[08:21] <FreeZey> i can tell something is wrong right now
[08:22] <killapop> FreeZey: like hoe
[08:22] <killapop> FreeZey: *how
[08:22] <phenom> Humbraro, It tells me warcraft: command not found now?
[08:22] <No1Viking> Anyone know of a good ftp client with SSL support?
[08:22] <phenom> I added single quotes
[08:22] <FreeZey> cause it was tellin me synaptic or aptitude was open and i couldn;t rerun the dam install to fix the problems
[08:22] <phenom> alias warcraft='/home/phenom/Desktop/Documents/Games/Warcraft/war3.exe' -opengl
[08:22] <humbraro> phenom: no prob
[08:22] <killapop> FreeZey: u mean it says the database is locked?
[08:23] <humbraro> phenom: type "source ~/.bashrc"
[08:23] <humbraro> phenom: no quotes, of course, then try again
[08:23] <FreeZey> it was locked yeah hold up just rebooted
[08:23] <humbraro> phenom: the next time you login, it should work automagically
[08:23] <phenom> bash: alias: -opengl: not found
[08:24] <phenom> I'll try reloging in
[08:24] <phenom> brb
[08:24] <humbraro> phenom: alias warcraft='/home/phenom/documents/whatever/war3.exe --opengl'
[08:24] <phenom> got it brb
[08:25] <FreeZey> i just rebooted and its still sayin it
[08:25] <lexiyntax> No1Viking: Gui or cli?
[08:25] <No1Viking> lexiyntax, GUI please
[08:25] <stjepan> I've got a short video and I want to remove sounds from it. How?
[08:25] <lexiyntax> No1Viking: I'm a fan of gftp.
[08:26] <FreeZey> dam when i try to reconfigure it
[08:26] <FreeZey> it screws up still
[08:26] <FreeZey> tells me i have package errors
[08:26] <No1Viking> lexiyntax, yes, but does it support SSL?
[08:26] <phenom> Hmm
[08:26] <phenom> Command not found :/
[08:26] <FreeZey> says to use "broken" filter to find it
[08:26] <spikeb> i think it might
[08:26] <phenom> Loging didn't fix this
[08:27] <humbraro> ok
[08:27] <lexiyntax> No1Viking: http://gftp.seul.org/
[08:27] <humbraro> the file you want to be editing is /home/phenom/.bashrc
[08:27] <phenom> This is what is at the very bottom of my .backrc file
[08:27] <phenom> alias warcraft='/home/phenom/Desktop/Documents/Games/Warcraft/war3.exe --opengl'\
[08:27] <humbraro> and there should be entries there already
[08:28] <FreeZey> i just ran sudo apt-get install -f
[08:28] <phenom> Yes I am in /home/phenom/.bashrc
[08:28] <humbraro> ok, put that entry in .bashrc, and kill the \ at the end, and figure out whether or not you use a --opengl, or -opengl
[08:29] <humbraro> make sure those 3 things are sane, then try it
[08:30] <phenom> Humbraro, I type in "wine /home/phenom/Desktop/Documents/Games/Warcraft/war3.exe -opengl" into a terminal and it works like a charm
[08:31] <phenom> smooth and all
[08:31] <humbraro> ok, you need to add the wine part after the alias warcraft='
[08:31] <humbraro> so alias warcraft=
[08:31] <humbraro> oops
[08:31] <odin_> is it normal for the volume on all media programs to be lower than sound effects of other programs, even with its volume turned all the way up?
[08:31] <phenom> wine /home/phenom/Desktop/Documents/Games/Warcraft/war3.exe -opengl
[08:31] <phenom> This is what it is
[08:31] <odin_> I find that I need to turn my speakers way up to hear music and other audio well enough
[08:32] <humbraro> alias warcraft='wine /path/to/warcraft/war3.exe -opengl'
[08:32] <humbraro> see the difference?
[08:32] <odin_> and my Gaim sound effects are even louder
[08:32] <phenom> should i logout and try it now?
[08:32] <killapop> FreeZey: and?
[08:32] <humbraro> phenom: or do a source ~/.bashrc
[08:32] <killapop> FreeZey: are u on breezy now?
[08:33] <humbraro> bah, that wasn't clear
[08:33] <phenom> :D it worked!
[08:33] <humbraro> cool
[08:33] <humbraro> you can alias just about anything that way
[08:33] <phenom> it crashed will a horrible soundmixer error tho, that can be another day :)
[08:33] <stjepan> how to set root password to default?
[08:33] <humbraro> ok, you want an icon then?
[08:34] <phenom> How does it double-clickable now?
[08:34] <odin_> ...any ideas at all? :)
[08:34] <phenom> odin_ no i'm new
[08:34] <odin_> *yells to heavens*  curses!!!  *raises fist for effect*
[08:34] <humbraro> phenom: are you using gnome?
[08:35] <phenom> Yes
[08:35] <humbraro> ok, cool - right-click on the desktop, and choose "create launcher"
[08:36] <humbraro> in the name box, call it warcraft
[08:36] <UNH2LY> that right there is a great feature of gnome
[08:36] <phenom> Tracking
[08:36] <humbraro> and in the command box, type the warcraft command
[08:37] <phenom> from the .bashrc?
[08:37] <humbraro> probably better if you do the long one, i.e. wine /home/phenom/etc
[08:37] <varsendagger> how do i use cvs
[08:37] <phenom> can i remove it from my .bashrc then?
[08:37] <humbraro> no, leave it there
[08:37] <humbraro> that way you can have both
[08:37] <phenom> k
[08:38] <phenom> Done adding the command
[08:38] <humbraro> if you ever switch off of gnome to something else, the warcraft command will still work from a terminal
[08:38] <phenom> Awsome
[08:39] <humbraro> ok, that should be it, hit "OK", and double-click on the icon for it
[08:39] <phenom> sounds crackling pretty bad
[08:39] <humbraro> hmm
[08:40] <phenom> think it was just on the cutscenes
[08:40] <humbraro> are you getting video accelleration and all that though?
[08:40] <phenom> im kinda sure video acceleration is on?
[08:40] <phenom> I can run quake at 200 FPS?
[08:40] <humbraro> well, if you were getting 1 fps, you'd know it
[08:40] <phenom> :)
[08:41] <humbraro> 200?, that depends on your card
[08:41] <humbraro> quake 1 maybe
[08:41] <phenom> Yes Quake 1
[08:41] <humbraro> personally, i got a tnt riva,and am lucky that i get accell at al
[08:41] <nomin> is there a program that can save streaming videos?
[08:42] <odin_> I have been nearly completely unsuccessfull at playing streaming videos in ubuntu
[08:42] <odin_> and yes, I got the mozilla totem plugin
[08:42] <nomin> odin_ I can play them just fine.
[08:42] <nomin> I'm using ubuntu breezy.
[08:43] <nomin> get rid of totem and use the kaffeine plugin instead.  I just did it today.
[08:43] <nomin> also uninstall the vlc plugin.
[08:43] <odin_> uninstall?
[08:44] <nomin> also uninstall the mplayer plugin.
[08:44] <Samuli^> nomin, Streaming works a lot better in dapper.
[08:44] <nomin> I don't think I had the vlc plugin, actually.
[08:44] <humbraro> phenom: ok, everything working ok?
[08:44] <Samuli^> I'm using totem-xine-plugin and firefox. Works very nicely.
[08:45] <nomin> Samuli^, I just installed debian sarge on another pc and I can record streaming video with kaffeine, but debian has a newer version of kaffeine.  Ubuntu breezy does not have the latest kaffiene that can record streaming video.
[08:45] <Samuli^> nomin, and sarge does? that's odd.
[08:45] <phenom> hombraro, Yes! Thanks abunch!
[08:45] <Samuli^> anyways, Upgrade to dapper :)
[08:45] <humbraro> that might be the only package that debian has thats newer than any other distro
[08:46] <nomin> Samuli^, but dapper is unstable and the next stable ubuntu is coming out soon.
[08:46] <humbraro> phenom: cool, have fun with that
[08:46] <Samuli^> nomin, it's dapper that's coming out and I can tell you it's not unstable at all.
[08:47] <Samuli^> to me it's been a lot more stable than breezy ever was for over 3 weeks now.
[08:47] <nomin> Samuli^, than why haven't they officially announced it yet?
[08:47] <odin_> will dapper fix the problem of firefox spontaneously closing, and too much activity resulting in a random system crash?
[08:47] <humbraro> dapper rocks - its more capable than anything i've ever used
[08:47] <Samuli^> odin_, no.
[08:47] <mustard5> nomin, its not 'officially' stable yet :)
[08:48] <lexiyntax> nomin: If you don't want to try dapper, you can see if there's a backport http://backports.ubuntuforums.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
[08:48] <spikeb> dapper is getting buggier by the day
[08:48] <spikeb> this is not good
[08:48] <Samuli^> odin_, well, for the too much activity resulting crash.. that's better than in breezy to me anyways.
[08:48] <odin_> woo, totem-xine works great
[08:49] <harrisonK> anybody conscious?
[08:49] <Samuli^> but I wouldn't say it's stable for lower-end computers and firefox still quits unexpectedly.
[08:49] <Samuli^> no dude, it's the night of living dead.
[08:49] <nomin> lexiyntax, what is a backport?
[08:49] <harrisonK> is it worth it at the moment?
[08:49] <humbraro> Samuli^: i'm running it on a PIII 733/384, and it works like a charm
[08:49] <Samuli^> harisund, don't do it :)
[08:49] <mustard5> many people harrisonK
[08:49] <odin_> Samuli^:  but firefox still spontaneously closes?
[08:49] <harrisonK> or would it be less hassle to stick with the 32
[08:50] <lexiyntax> nomin: The link I sent explains it.
[08:50] <nomin> ok, thanks.
[08:50] <Samuli^> humbraro, define charm :)
[08:50] <Samuli^> odin_, yeah :/
[08:50] <harrisonK> yea i think i'll do the 32 :)
[08:50] <spikeb> harrisonK: it's less hassle to use the 32bit still
[08:50] <odin_> Samuli^:  is there any simple reason for that?  at least good to know that I'm not the only one having that problem
[08:51] <Samuli^> odin_, I guess it's because that's the first thing programmed to close if there's a need to free memory.
[08:51] <humbraro> Samuli^: no probs with anything, running services, nothing stripped down, hell, even gnome loads faster than it did when i used slack
[08:51] <nomin> Samuli^, can you do fullscreen with an embedded streaming video in windows media format?  Can you also fast forward and rewind?
[08:51] <HunterZ> hi
[08:51] <odin_> Samuli^:  really, it's cuz I don't have enough ram?
[08:51] <Samuli^> humbraro, yeah., That's one thing to notice, gnome definately loads faster than in breezy for example.
[08:52] <Samuli^> odin_, I think so, but I couldn't say.
[08:52] <odin_> Samuli^:  seems to happen even when I don't have much open
[08:52] <humbraro> Samuli^: i have breezy at work on a PIV 2.4/512, and there isn't a noticable difference in responsiveness
[08:52] <humbraro> Samuli^: only cpu-intensive things
[08:53] <Samuli^> odin_, yeah. I had that a lot in breezy.
[08:53] <Samuli^> Not so much in dapper.
[08:53] <humbraro> mustard5: flux rocks, but i think gnome's interface is worth the load time
[08:53] <humbraro> of course thats a matter of opinion
[08:54] <mustard5> humbraro, oh for sure yeah... I'm on a minimalist trip atm :)
[08:54] <humbraro> hehe
[08:54] <odin_> !tell odin_ about flux
[08:54] <Samuli^> I'd like to see e17 finished.
[08:54] <Samuli^> then everything would be well and good.
[08:54] <humbraro> E is cool, but i've never bothered to put the time into getting it working the way i want
[08:55] <mustard5> Samuli^, e17 makes me go crosseyed with everything bouncing around and popping up
[08:55] <odin_> wow, daily show streaming looks so much better than on my windows machine
[08:55] <spikeb> e17 will be interesting when it's usable
[08:55] <Samuli^> mustard5, it can be configured to pretty much the way you like it.
[08:56] <mustard5> I'm torn between flux, xfce and gnome atm..hard to decide which one to use, so I use them all as the mood takes me
[08:56] <Samuli^> KDE 4 will be interesting too.
[08:56] <nomin> if you want to record streaming videos, I think the newest version of kaffeine is the easiest to use.  I'm going to see if I can backport the latest one from dapper.
[08:57] <nomin> Samuli^: are you able to record streaming videos?
[08:57] <spikeb> kde 4 will be neat, yes, but if history is any guide, i won't be able to stand it
[08:57] <Samuli^> nomin, never tried that.
[08:57] <Samuli^> But I think not.
[08:58] <harrisonK> ahhhg 17 minutes til ubuntu-5.10-i386.iso is done.. i will not rest until success is mine
[08:58] <nomin> kaffeine on debian sarge does it very easily.
[08:58] <humbraro> kde is arguably more advanced than gnome, but it looks like a cartoon to me
[08:58] <killapop> Samuli^: have u tried VLC for streaming media?
[08:58] <killapop> humbraro: :)) - so why polish... btw im trying to learn some
[08:58] <mustard5> humbraro, yeah I think it and XP both qualify for the 'Fisher Price' interface awards :)
[08:59] <linux_galore> saw a howto on digg.com on building kde4
[08:59] <humbraro> killapop: lmao
[08:59] <nomin> you can always change the look of kde if you want to
[08:59] <humbraro> killapop: "busha" is grandma, iirc
[08:59] <killapop> humbraro: i know... i got to counting untill 10...
[08:59] <mustard5> what annoyed me was how much xubuntu dapper looked like gnome when I first loaded it up
[09:00] <spikeb> that's the default look upstream now, mustard5
[09:00] <killapop> humbraro: also learned that mamusha is good for mum and mamushka is not so good
[09:00] <humbraro> mustard5: by default, yes, but its whole drawing engine is so different than gnome, that i can't get used to it
[09:00] <Samuli^> killapop, nope.
[09:00] <killapop> Samuli^: then u should
[09:00] <Samuli^> killapop, I'll try that as I have vlc installed already.
[09:01] <Samuli^> though totem-xine does everything I want anyways.
[09:01] <killapop> Samuli^: im just in the process of testing and putting together a set of tools for audio video production on linux and vlc is good for streaming media
[09:01] <mustard5> spikeb, yeah its a bit of a 'who moved my cheese' situation...I'll get used to it eventually
[09:01] <killapop> Samuli^: im not to big a fan of totem... xine in itself I dont mind
[09:01] <odin_> man this streaming is awesome
[09:01] <Apostle^> xine is the best engine
[09:02] <Samuli^> killapop, I get that a lot.
[09:02] <spikeb> mustard5: or you can reconfigure it :)
[09:02] <killapop> odin_: what dyu use?
[09:02] <mustard5> killapop, I was using 'lives' last night with my daughter for video editing
[09:02] <nomin> Samuli^: can you do fullscreen, fast forward, and rewind streaming videos in windows media format?
[09:02] <killapop> mustard5: do u like it?
[09:02] <odin_> killapop:  xine plugin for totem
[09:02] <Samuli^> nomin, yeah.
[09:02] <killapop> mustard5: have u tried kino or cinelerra?
[09:02] <mustard5> spikeb, hehe..well I did the first time around, but second time around installing it I thought..naaah..can't be bothered :)
[09:03] <mustard5> killapop, well the 'stable' version is really buggy
[09:03] <nomin> Samuli^:  do you have bottons to click for these or do you use the keyboard?  My totem plugin had only a pause button.
[09:03] <mustard5> killapop, does kino work with editing avi's, mpegs and wmvs?
[09:03] <humbraro> goodnight all
[09:03] <killapop> mustard5: isnt it a little un-intutive - lives that is
[09:04] <Samuli^> nomin, There's buttons for everything and sliders for position and volume.
[09:04] <killapop> mustard5: i think it does...
[09:04] <killapop> mustard5: u could also try avidemux
[09:04] <mustard5> killapop, not as much as cinerella :)
[09:04] <mustard5> killapop, where were you last night! :)  Hehehe..I couldnt get an avi to load in kino
[09:05] <mustard5> killapop, actually it might have been a .mov
[09:05] <killapop> mustard5: hehe.. cinelerra is the closes u can come to some semblance of FCP or adobe premier
[09:05] <odin_> is kino good enough to make anime music videos?
[09:05] <varsendagger> i am trying to install diva
[09:05] <Apostle^> odin_, why the hell would you want to make anime
[09:05] <odin_> Apostle^: anime music videos, not anime
[09:05] <odin_> Apostle^: as in editing already made video clips along to music
[09:05] <Apostle^> oh, thats so much different
[09:05] <mustard5> killapop, I wish I could grasp the cinerella interface...I couldnt get any sound on playback...nor could I work out how to cut and paste clips around
[09:06] <Polypterus> Hi. Where can I find the plugin for xchat which will make it possible to put it in system tray?
[09:06] <mustard5> Polypterus, umm..just looking it up...
[09:06] <Apostle^> Polypterus, sudo apt-cache search xchat tray
[09:06] <mustard5> Polypterus, xchat-systray
[09:07] <Polypterus> Thanks fellas! :)
[09:07] <Polypterus> That was quick.
[09:07] <mustard5> Polypterus, apt-cache search is the magic tool :)
[09:07] <Samuli^> nomin, http://www.freewebs.com/arpakyna/dapper2.jpg
[09:08] <nomin> BTW, if any of you decide to use the kaffeine plugin to play windows media videos, when it starts up it asks if you also want it to play realplayer videos.  Don't check that box, it sucks.  just let realplayer play realvideos.
[09:08] <Apostle^> freewebs :-(
[09:08] <odin_> that and man
[09:08] <Samuli^> Apostle^, yeah.. It's FAST:
[09:08] <eumario> Hidey Ho people.
[09:08] <Apostle^> Samuli^, haha we are using the same icon set
[09:09] <Samuli^> Apostle^, Cool? :)
[09:09] <varsendagger> god please send me someone who would be kind enough to help me install 4 packages from gstreamer CVS
[09:09] <Apostle^> Samuli^, i guess so ;-P
[09:09] <Samuli^> I don't even remember what mine is.
[09:09] <Samuli^> NEU?
[09:09] <Apostle^> dropline neu i think
[09:09] <eumario> Need some assistance, if someone would be so kind as to help me out in getting Ubuntu to be my primary Linux OS?
[09:09] <Samuli^> yeah.
[09:09] <Apostle^> i just noticed your volume icon ;-P
[09:09] <varsendagger> eumario, what do you like to do?
[09:09] <Apostle^> do you have that skype problem where after 1 call it says sound card error?
[09:10] <killapop> eumario: how do u mean
[09:10] <killapop> Apostle^: I do
[09:10] <Apostle^> killapop, yea i have found no solution
[09:10] <hangfire> eumario- are you dual booting?
[09:10] <killapop> Apostle^: I always have to restart skype
[09:11] <Apostle^> killapop, same here
[09:11] <Samuli^> Apostle^, killapop, use sky_dsp_hijacker
[09:11] <Apostle^> hmm, how do i set that up apt?
[09:11] <Samuli^> that's a workaround.
[09:11] <eumario> varsendagger, killapop: Couple of things.  I'm currently running Ubuntu on 2 computers, 2.7 GHz, and a 400 MHz.  Both are running fine, except for two seperate problems.  The 2.7 GHz freezes on hotplug, which I chmod 0666 /etc/init.d/hotplug to make it boot up, which works fine, except now I have to manually modprobe snd_intel8x0 in order to get sound to work.
[09:11] <Samuli^> Apostle^,  I don't think it's in the repositories, You might need to compile, but it's not too hard.
[09:12] <killapop> Samuli^: thanks.. will try that out
[09:12] <paulb> my conputer dosn't recognize usb disks any more. how do i fix this?
[09:12] <Apostle^> skype-dsp-hijacker
[09:12] <Samuli^> Apostle^, ssearch ubuntuforums.org with skype_dsp_hijacker
[09:12] <Apostle^> is in repo's
[09:12] <Samuli^> It is? cool.
[09:12] <Apostle^> Samuli^, all i do is install it or what?
[09:12] <Samuli^> Yeah I guess.
[09:12] <Apostle^> my headset shows up as dsp2
[09:12] <Apostle^> not sure why...
[09:12] <Apostle^> maybe because it's bluetooth
[09:12] <varsendagger> hmmm sorry i don't know what to say
[09:13] <Samuli^> And after install make sure your skype-link in applications starts sky_dsp_hijacker instead of skype.
[09:13] <Apostle^> sky? or skype
[09:13] <eumario> I need a way to make the boot up to modprobe snd_intel8x0, so that I'll have sound when it boots up.  The second problem, is that on my 400 MHz, I've got a Wireless Adapater Setup through the latest release of the NDISWrapper, but it's not connecting to my Wireless Router, so it's left without internet connection.
[09:13] <Samuli^> Apostle^, that's normal. You're soundcard is dsp and you're other soundevices are dsp2,3 etc.
[09:14] <nomin> Samuli^: can you do fullscreen, forward, and rewind with these videos:  http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/retirement/view/
[09:14] <Samuli^> Apostle^, skype_ sorry.
[09:14] <watson541>  eumario: just a suggestion, but i would take hotplug out of the init sequence and start in mannually every time
[09:14] <Apostle^> Samuli^, i only use skype because it lets you call long distance in the US for free
[09:14] <Apostle^> ;-)
[09:14] <vmadmin> hi
[09:14] <watson541> i know it doesnt fix the problem, but its a wokaround :0
[09:15] <eumario> watson541: That is what I did.  Making it non-executable prevents hotplug from loading up, but my sound doesn't load up.  I have to modprobe it, and restart Gnome.
[09:15] <Apostle^> Samuli^, any fix on why skype takes an hour to load?
[09:15] <odin_> if only I didn't have to have a phone line for DSL would I get skype or one of those things
[09:15] <vmadmin> nickrud: your a star but only sometimes
[09:15] <Apostle^> odin_, why not get cable
[09:15] <Samuli^> Apostle^, nope :)
[09:16] <odin_> Apostle^: cables only good if you also want cable television, which I don't
[09:16] <Samuli^> nomin, I can't actually see them at all.
[09:16] <vmadmin> DBO: your coffee's damm good
[09:16] <eumario> watson541: Basically, I just need to figure out, where to place the modprobe command, to probe for the snd_intel8x0, so it'll load up the sound, before GDM even kicks in.
[09:16] <Apostle^> somone give me a us # to prank call
[09:16] <Apostle^> i need to test out the dsp hijacker
[09:16] <Tidus> apostle: 18004877646 :P
[09:16] <Apostle^> haha
[09:17] <Apostle^> who is that?
[09:17] <watson541> eumario: it seems to me you could add it into your init process, and there IS a graphical/curses init.d editor i juist forget the name :)
[09:17] <Apostle^> FBI
[09:17] <Tidus> the at-t phone card dialer #
[09:17] <Apostle^> lol
[09:17] <Apostle^> i'll just call my old girlfriend
[09:17] <vmadmin> need help to stop hackers  on smtp
[09:17] <Apostle^> always fun to wake her up
[09:17] <eumario> watson541: Ofcourse. :P  I know, I have the same problems to thinking of program names when I need to refer someone to it. LOL
[09:18] <nomin> Samuli^: that's odd.  Are you just getting a black rectangle?
[09:18] <DBO> vmadmin... ookay?
[09:18] <eumario> watson541: Wonder if synaptic has a package for it.
[09:18] <watson541> eumario: doesnt gnome have one?
[09:18] <Samuli^> nomin, just a reminder that I should get windows media player or realplayer.
[09:18] <phenom> Hello again :)
[09:19] <Samuli^> nomin, And I don't have realplayer installed and won't have.
[09:19] <fourat_> hiya all
[09:19] <phenom> I am trying to burn a larger then 1GB file to a blank DVD, can someone help me please?
[09:19] <nomin> Samuli^: google videos uses macromedia for video.  It's not realplayer or windows media.
[09:19] <Samuli^> nomin, right.
[09:19] <watson541> eumario: a aquick and dirty hack i would do is put 'modprobe <whatever> into a text file, chmod +x it, then add that file into your init process:)
[09:19] <vmadmin> DBO: ; yes its that mount something stuff mum send me the coffee yesterday
[09:19] <Tidus> it's just flash player
[09:19] <Samuli^> nomin, well I steer away from realmedia.
[09:19] <nomin> Samuli^: do you have the win32 codecs installed?
[09:19] <vmadmin> DBO: sorry off topic
[09:19] <fourat_> my sound card is not detected, how can i install it ?
[09:19] <Samuli^> nomin, yeah.
[09:20] <phenom> What programs to use to burn data DVD in Ubuntu?
[09:20] <vmadmin> DBO: any suggestions will proctecting postfix just something simple light
[09:20] <eumario> watson541: I was thinking about that, but dunno which rcX.d directory to throw it into.
[09:20] <Tidus> !restricted
[09:20] <nomin> Samuli^: realplayer works easily and the best when opened externally on linux.  Some sites only play realplayer videos.
[09:20] <ubotu> restricted is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[09:20] <Samuli^> phnemon, I just use nautilus.
[09:21] <Samuli^> or phenom.
[09:21] <phenom> Samuli^, Natulus is installed but how to I open it?
[09:21] <watson541> eumario: i think anything bedore rc.5 would be sufficient since runlevel 5 is X/gdm/gnome
[09:21] <xbow> hi all,  how to find what's right device to mount when some flash device (flash-stick, card-reader, mobile phone) connected to USB interface?
[09:21] <nomin> phenom, I use K3b.  Works great.
[09:21] <Samuli^> phenom, it's the program you use to go through files.
[09:21] <phenom> will K3B work on Gnome?
[09:21] <Samuli^> it will.
[09:22] <watson541> eumario: so i would put it in 3 or 4 tob be safae
[09:22] <Samuli^> just looks ugly and starts slowly.
[09:22] <nomin> phenom, yes.  You just need to install the kde libs.  Synaptic automatically does it.
[09:22] <eumario> watson541: Yeah, was thinking about 4, cause that's just right before 5.
[09:22] <watson541> heh eumario :)
[09:22] <nomin> I run a few kde apps just fine
[09:22] <Samuli^> anyways, dapper has this CD/DVD Creator in 'places' where you can drag and drop files and then push 'write cd/dvd'
[09:23] <nomin> phenom, just check k3b for installation in synaptic and it installs everything.  It's pretty simple.
[09:23] <Samuli^> I don't remember if that was there in breezy, but I'm getting not.
[09:23] <phenom> Nomain, I'll try. is K3b drag'n'drop friendly?
[09:23] <Tidus> yes it is
[09:24] <Samuli^> k3b is great.
[09:24] <nomin> phenom, it has its own window that you browse with.  You just drag and drop from there.
[09:24] <eumario> Alright, time to test this, if things work out, I'll let ya know Watson. ;-)
[09:24] <Tidus> nomin: it also supports drag/drop from naut / konqueror
[09:24] <phenom> Installing K3B right nowe
[09:24] <nomin> I also use k3b to burn iso's of linux cd's
[09:25] <Samuli^> For some reason I don't like using KDE apps in gnome.
[09:25] <phenom> if it messes up my OS i'm hunting people down :)
[09:25] <Samuli^> and vice versa for that matter.
[09:25] <spikeb> ditto Samuli^
[09:25] <Samuli^> phenom, It won't.
[09:25] <vmadmin> DBO: did you see my question?
[09:25] <nomin> I haven't had any problems with kde apps on my system yet.  I'm using gnome.
[09:25] <Madpilot> nomin, naut can burn ISOs - stick a blank CD in, close the popup that asks what you want to do with the blank, then just right-click on the ISO file and select Burn To Disc...
[09:26] <Samuli^> MAdPilot, nautilus can do much more than that.
[09:26] <scabootssca> Hello all, Is there a way to be able to read/write on the windowspartion of my dual boot computer? WinXp and 5.10 ubuntu
[09:26] <Samuli^> scabootssca, what file system does windows use?
[09:26] <nomin> so nautilus does everything k3b does?
[09:26] <Tidus> scabootssca: is the windows FS formatted as NTFS ?
[09:26] <vmadmin> Madpilot: got the wiki done many thanks
[09:27] <odin_> scabootssca: I was actually wondering that too, I heard once of something to that effect
[09:27] <Samuli^> nomin, at least in dapper.
[09:27] <scabootssca> yeah
[09:27] <scabootssca> i can read but not write
[09:27] <Madpilot> Samuli^, yeah, I know - nomin was just talking about ISO burning, though
[09:27] <Samuli^> nomin, well not all.. but basic data-cd/dvd's and iso-burning.
[09:27] <Tidus> scabootssca: linux can't write to NTFS
[09:27] <dli> can I get screenshot by PrntScrn key?
[09:27] <Tidus> only read.
[09:27] <Samuli^> Madpilot, point.
[09:27] <scabootssca> that sucks
[09:27] <odin_> how do you read from a WinXP partition in ubuntu, though?
[09:27] <Madpilot> dli, you should be able to
[09:27] <scabootssca> is there a way to change it or something?
[09:28] <dli> Madpilot, yes, but how to save the screenshot after that?
[09:28] <Tidus> scabootssca: you can try using a program called captive-ntfs, which uses the windows native ntfs drivers to allow full safe write.
[09:28] <Tidus> scabootssca: but dont come calling when it breaks your system
[09:28] <vmadmin> ok again any protection on smtp for postfix to stop hackers and spam
[09:28] <Madpilot> dli, if you're running Gnome, you should get the screenshot util popping up when you hit the PrntScrn key
[09:28] <Samuli^> odin_, You need to mount the drive and well.. then it just there to read.
[09:29] <Samuli^> odin_, Dapper does that automatically and places symlink to your desktop.
[09:29] <odin_> Samuli^:  oh, is that all?  things are always just so simple...
[09:29] <eumario> watson541: Nope, no flow on the mobo.
[09:29] <scabootssca> ok cool and is there a way to use .mp3's in linux cause i got a bunch on indows and i liek to listen to them while i work and cant get it to work
[09:29] <Tidus> !tell scabootssca about restricted
[09:29] <eumario> scabootssca: Xmms
[09:29] <odin_> Samuli^:  I forget, how do I check my hard drive's partitions again?
[09:29] <watson541> eumario: why what happened? i was looking for that curses sysvinit editor
[09:29] <dli> Madpilot, thanks
[09:29] <nomin> scabootssca, linux plays mp3's easily.
[09:30] <scabootssca> how?
[09:30] <Tidus> scabootssca: check the /msg that ubotu sent ya
[09:30] <eumario> watson541: Exactly what I thought would.  No sound.
[09:30] <vmadmin> Madpilot: any suggestions please
[09:30] <scabootssca> i followed the thin about restricted formats but my modem is not supported by linux
[09:30] <Madpilot> vmadmin, sorry, suggestions about what?
[09:30] <khermans> who needs help?!!
[09:31] <Tidus> !mp3
[09:31] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, totally, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[09:31] <eggzeck> or install xmms
[09:31] <vmadmin> Madpilot: stopping spammers and potential hackers on smtp (postfix MTA something light
[09:31] <eggzeck> I didn't have to do anything else :)
[09:31] <scabootssca> i did but it says it needs to download things and i cant gat in the internet with linux
[09:31] <nomin> scabootsca, there are even ways to 'clean' mp3's that have extra stuff added to them.
[09:31] <Madpilot> vmadmin, no idea, I've never done any mailserver stuff
[09:32] <eumario> watson541: Soon as I get into Gnome, and modprobe for snd_intel8x0, it works just fine.
[09:32] <eumario> watson541: May have forgotten to do something here.....
[09:32] <Madpilot> scabootssca, have you seen the modem help pages for Ubuntu?
[09:32] <vmadmin> Madpilot: ok thanks
[09:32] <scabootssca> ?
[09:32] <scabootssca> no i didnt
[09:33] <eggzeck> scabootssca, just install xmms
[09:33] <nomin> scabootssca, the biggest problem with linux is hardware compatibility.  You might not have a compatible modem.
[09:33] <eggzeck> scabootssca, sudo apt-get install xmms
[09:33] <eggzeck> scabootssca, then run: killall gnome-panel
[09:33] <scabootssca> thats the problem i dont think i do
[09:33] <eumario> watson541: Yeah, think I found the problem.
[09:34] <eggzeck> scabootssca, xmms plays mp3 without even doing anything else :)
[09:34] <eumario> watson541: Gonna test 1 more time.
[09:34] <scabootssca> i have a U.S robotics 56K fax win
[09:34] <odin_> what command gives me my hard drive partitions again?  I used it once a few months ago...
[09:35] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell scabootssca about modems
[09:35] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell scabootssca about modem
[09:35] <scabootssca> thanks
[09:36] <Samuli^> odin_ in case anyone didn't already tell you: fdisk -l /dev/hdX
[09:36] <odin_> Samuli^: thanks
[09:36] <eumario> watson541: Nope, wasn't what I thought it was.
[09:37] <Samuli^> odin_, you want to add your windows partition into fstab of course.
[09:37] <odin_> Samuli^: okay, um, that didn't work....o.O
[09:37] <Apostle^> Samuli^, hmm how do you call a 1800 # with skype
[09:38] <eggzeck> odin_, replace X with an actual value
[09:38] <fourat_> how to check if soundcard is working or not ?
[09:38] <odin_> ohhh...
[09:38] <nomin> skype lets us call people for free now, right?
[09:38] <watson541> eumario: im trying to find this sysvinit editor but im pretty sure gnome/kde has one integrated
[09:38] <odin_> yeah, let's see here, mr. gedit....
[09:38] <Apostle^> haha skype_dsp_hijacker works
[09:38] <Apostle^> nice nice
[09:38] <Tidus> Apostle^: +1-800-<rest of number>
[09:39] <Apostle^> Tidus, thanks
[09:39] <eumario> watson541: Don't think it's services
[09:39] <odin_> !tell odin_ about fdisk
[09:39] <odin_> dang, that never works...
[09:41] <Apostle^> odin_, check your pms
[09:41] <tuskernini> hi all ubuntuers..
[09:41] <odin_> Apostle^: ugh, maybe I'll do that when I wake up ... I just realized that it's nearly 4am
[09:41] <tuskernini> has anyone played with voipbuster data in linux?
[09:41] <Apostle^> 'thank you for calling comcast'
[09:42] <odin_> I think it's time for me to crash in hacker fashion ... a fashion I hate do the crink in your neck when you wake up
[09:43] <odin_> to do*
[09:43] <odin_> because of the*
[09:43] <odin_> wow, I really do need sleep...
[09:43] <odin_> that sentence actually made sense to me
[09:43] <odin_> well, 'night all
[09:47] <scabootssca> whats RPM?
[09:47] <nomin> red hat package management.
[09:47] <eggzeck> scabootssca: it's a type of package.
[09:47] <nomin> some distros use it.  Ubuntu doesn't.
[09:48] <scabootssca> cause i'm looking at http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/ and dont know which one
[09:48] <Samuli^> scabootssca, RPM aren't that nice.
[09:48] <Apostle^> rpm is worse than .deb
[09:48] <scabootssca> so get ".tar.gz i386 binary
[09:48] <scabootssca> (for non-RPM distributions)"?
[09:48] <eggzeck> yes
[09:48] <nomin> scabootssca, synaptic is ubuntu's package manager.  RPM's are for the Red hat Package Manager.
[09:48] <Apostle^> thats source
[09:49] <Samuli^> I had FC 5 and after clean install I couldn't install rhythmbox without crashing into depency problems.
[09:49] <eggzeck> scabootssca, yes, but you'll need to install build-essential
[09:49] <scabootssca> ok thanks
[09:49] <fyrestrtr> what is a good dvd reader that has menu support?
[09:49] <Apostle^> xine
[09:49] <fyrestrtr> I mean, dvd *player* not reader.
[09:49] <Samuli^> deb's are a LOT better in my books (and most others)
[09:49] <Apostle^> haha called comcast from skype
[09:49] <eggzeck> debs > *
[09:49] <Apostle^> and got the washington DC
[09:49] <Apostle^> office.
[09:49] <eumario> watson541: Gonna try this discover package here, see if that may help things out a bit.
[09:49] <nomin> scabootssca, I also have mandriva installed on my pc.  I use RPM's on that distro.
[09:50] <Samuli^> Apostle^, Enjoying skype_dsp_hijacker? :)
[09:50] <Apostle^> Samuli^, yea, but i need a phone # to prank
[09:50] <Samuli^> hehe.
[09:50] <scabootssca> ok so rpm's ar only for red het things
[09:50] <Apostle^> gonna google some #'s i guess
[09:50] <Apostle^> scabootssca, you can use alien to turn an rpm to a .deb
[09:50] <nomin> Apostle^, what is skype_dsp_hijacker?
[09:50] <Samuli^> scabootssca, not for ubuntu anyways.
[09:50] <Apostle^> people say it's not safe but it has always worked for me
[09:51] <Samuli^> well, it's not recommended, but sometimes it works.
[09:51] <Apostle^> i think i'll call the sheriffs dept in west virginia
[09:51] <scabootssca> www.xmms.org is down
[09:51] <eggzeck> I'd rather get the tar.gz
[09:51] <eggzeck> heh
[09:51] <Apostle^> and report
[09:51] <Apostle^> a stolen lawnmower
[09:51] <Samuli^> eggzeck, seconded.
[09:52] <nomin> scabootssca, Red Hat is a company that has it's own linux distro.  Since linux is open source, any other distro can use the RPM system.  Red Hat created it, but any distro can use it.
[09:52] <fyrestrtr> how do you navigate in xine? Like choose another option from the dvd menu.
[09:52] <eumario> watson541: Alright, gonna try this, see if it helped or not.  BBS.
[09:52] <scabootssca> yeah i know i sw that its expencive
[09:52] <Apostle^> calling the NY transit authority lol..
[09:53] <GazzaK> Apostle^, they will send the men in black after you :p
[09:53] <Apostle^> GazzaK, im calling from skype, the number is like 0123456
[09:53] <Apostle^> lol
[09:54] <tuskernini> viopbuster rules
[09:54] <GazzaK> they will have means to track you, and get ya in the night!!!
[09:54] <tuskernini> but thats just my oppinion...
[09:54] <Apostle^> never heard of it
[09:54] <nomin> almost everything is traceable over the internet
[09:54] <Apostle^> GazzaK, theyd have to call skype, then comcast
[09:54] <Apostle^> lol
[09:55] <Apostle^> and i doubt skype logs all it's traffic
[09:55] <eumario> watson541: Muhahahahahahaaaaaa, there be sound here!
[09:55] <leojstewart> I need help to get rid of the NAT error in Azureus...
[09:55] <leojstewart> can anybody help me?
[09:55] <fyrestrtr> leojstewart: forward ports to your PC
[09:55] <Apostle^> LOL i should call
[09:55] <fyrestrtr> leojstewart: from your gateway/router device.
[09:55] <leojstewart> well, I've forwarded the ports in my hardware router.
[09:56] <Apostle^> some prison
[09:56] <eumario> leojstewart: To the correct IP Address?
[09:56] <leojstewart> and utorrent works well on Windows XP SP2
[09:56] <Apostle^> leojstewart, use firestarter and open ubuntu's ports, sudo apt-get install firestarter
[09:56] <leojstewart> i've forwarded to 192.168.0.36
[09:56] <leojstewart> i thino that's correct.
[09:57] <tuskernini> looks right
[09:57] <eumario> leojstewart: Sure your not letting the DHCP Daemon set the IP Address Automatically?
[09:57] <leojstewart> sorry, could you explain what that means?
[09:57] <leojstewart> I'm very new to linux.
[09:57] <Apostle^> are you setup to use static ip in ubuntu
[09:57] <eumario> DHCP: Dynamic Host Client Protocol
[09:57] <leojstewart> and I'm not a computer-expert.
[09:57] <Apostle^> or is it assigning one automatically
[09:58] <leojstewart> no.
[09:58] <leojstewart> i use Dynamic.
[09:58] <Apostle^> assign a static IP
[09:58] <eumario> It's what Automatically assigns your Computer an IP Address on the server.
[09:58] <eumario> Or the Network Hub
[09:58] <Apostle^> set your router for dhcp
[09:58] <eumario> In which case, Port Forwarding will not work.
[09:58] <Apostle^> and pc's for static
[09:58] <leojstewart> well, I tried the static at one point... and it wouldn't allow me to connect to the internet.
[09:58] <Apostle^> ip like 192.168.1.200
[09:58] <Apostle^> make sure you set the router as gateway
[09:58] <Apostle^> 192.168.1.1 or whatever
[09:59] <eumario> leojstewart: Sec here.
[09:59] <Apostle^> also, you need to copy the dns from your router
[09:59] <Apostle^> and add them to ubuntu
[10:00] <leojstewart> okay.. I'm trying to grasp everything...
[10:00] <leojstewart> one second..
[10:01] <eumario> leojstewart: http://www.trilake.net/images/static.png
[10:01] <leojstewart> first of all... i'm using D-Link DI-704P
[10:01] <leojstewart> in WAN, should I set it to Dynamic, Static, PPP, or others?
[10:02] <eumario> Static
[10:02] <zomak> mrning
[10:02] <eumario> Take a look at the URL I posted in here, you'll see what I'm talking about
[10:02] <leojstewart> done.
[10:02] <leojstewart> and looking
[10:02] <leojstewart> loading*
[10:02] <leojstewart> alright, thank you eumario
[10:02] <leojstewart> how do i know what ip address to input
[10:03] <leojstewart> and what gateway address
[10:03] <Apostle^> gateway is the router ip
[10:03] <leojstewart> i looked at ifconfig
[10:03] <Apostle^> static i'ps  you choose like 192.168.1.5
[10:03] <leojstewart> and just guess :)
[10:03] <eumario> leojstewart: You setup one for yourself, you stated that you have ports forwarding to 192.168.0.36, right?
[10:03] <leojstewart> yes.
[10:03] <eumario> leojstewart: Okay, put that in as your static IP Address.
[10:03] <leojstewart> because i read in ifconfig that my ip address was at 36
[10:04] <eumario> leojstewart: Remember, we're statically assigning an IP Address to your computer.  In other words, your computer won't ask the Router for an IP Address, your telling the Router your at this IP Address.
[10:04] <leojstewart> the virtual server option in my route allows me to forward ports to anything at 192.168.0.***
[10:04] <leojstewart> okay.
[10:05] <eumario> leojstewart: That is port forwarding, but the router needs to know which computer to send the data to.
[10:05] <leojstewart> alright, I think I've got it.
[10:05] <leojstewart> but, if you can, walk me through it, please.
[10:05] <leojstewart> i'm in the eth0 preferences now
[10:06] <leojstewart> config: static
[10:06] <leojstewart> ip address: ?
[10:06] <Apostle^> gateway is router ip
[10:06] <Apostle^> ip is whatever u setup in port forwarding
[10:06] <eumario> Look at your Private Message Leo
[10:07] <leojstewart> sorry, eumario, i'm not registered.
[10:08] <eumario> That's what I figured.  /msg nickserv register <password> <email@address.com>
[10:08] <eumario> Sorry, /msg nickserv register <password>
[10:09] <leojstewart> yes, my ports are forwarded to 192.168.0.36
[10:09] <leojstewart> opps. scratch my last message.
[10:09] <Samuli^> obs!
[10:09] <Samuli^> omskakas.

[10:17] <hobojoe> Ok, i've just upgraded to dapper, and I would like to use the latest supported ubuntu kernel , I had installed 2.6.16 but there are no kernel_modules_restricted for this kernel SO nvidia won't install
[10:18] <GazzaK> Apostle^, hehe
[10:18] <Apostle^> this dude was like
[10:18] <Apostle^> so upse
[10:18] <hobojoe> anyway, what is the latest kernel for dapper, and what is the name of the package to grab through apt-get
[10:18] <Apostle^> t
[10:18] <GazzaK> Apostle^, #ubuntu-offtopic might be a good channel to join???
[10:18] <Apostle^> yea
[10:19] <hobojoe> this guide says linux-tree which doesn't seem to be the case with dapper
[10:20] <eumario> Foamy! Foamy! Foamy! Foamy! http://www.illwillpress.com
[10:20] <mnk_> hello all  - can someone direct me to a howto or a quick way of syncing my xda2I [pocket pc windows mobile 3]  with evolution?
[10:20] <spikeb> has anyone gotten frostwire working with gjc?
[10:22] <hobojoe> sudo apt-get install linux-tree  which returns a can't find "linux-tree"
[10:23] <mnk_> anyone? :)
[10:24] <roryy> mnk_: you can try multisync, though I think it might be a little dated.  I don't see a package for your particular device.
[10:31] <hobojoe> anyone?
[10:32] <eumario> Anyone?  Who's Anyone?
[10:32] <GazzaK> he is over there >>>>
[10:32] <spikeb> !anyone
[10:32] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? </hint>
[10:33] <deep1> its noone's brother :P
[10:33] <hobojoe> hehe
[10:34] <hobojoe> I've just installed ubuntu and was on breazy, I've now upgraded to dapper and I would like to rebuild my kernel, when trying to grab the kernel soruce and restricted modules from apt-get I
[10:34] <eumario> it can't find it, right?
[10:34] <hobojoe> er I'm unaware as to what the name of kernel package is, I thought it was linux-tree, but that doens't seem to be the case
[10:35] <hobojoe> thats what the how-to's are stating anyway
[10:36] <eumario> bobojoe: kernel-tree-2.6.11, or whatever version of the kernel you want.
[10:36] <hicham> hello

[10:37] <hicham> ok
[10:37] <eumario> !wireless
[10:37] <ubotu> hmm... wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
[10:37] <hicham> so you see I am using ubuntu since long time

[10:37] <hicham> but the problem is that I always had a normal cable connection
[10:38] <DBO> Abountu, late =P
[10:38] <hobojoe> eumario: how do i list what packages are availible under the linux-tree

[10:39] <DBO> hicham, get firestarter =)  it makes sharing really easy
[10:39] <DBO> hicham, "sudo apt-get install firestarter"
[10:39] <hicham> thanks a lot I'll try it
[10:40] <DBO> hicham, for the future, when asking a question, try to get it all in one blurb, easier for us to deal with =)

[10:51] <Samuli^> Apostle^, Well, my explanation is that they thought I were you.
[10:51] <Samuli^> If that makes any sense at all.
[10:51] <DBO> Mantice, so what do you want me to do about it?

[10:52] <FeestBijtje> hey peeps
[10:52] <ighost> anyone know anything about install postgresql on breezy?
[10:52] <FeestBijtje> ighost, i know\
[10:53] <linux_galore> Windows has detected a lack of common sense, would you like to buy a new per key press license [Y/N] 
[10:53] <ighost> feestbijtje, you know what ineed to do after apt-getting it?
[10:53] <FeestBijtje> aight hold on
[10:54] <ighost> k
[10:54] <FeestBijtje> ighost, its all described in here: http://howtoforums.net/viewtopic.php?p=24
[10:55] <Archville> linux_galore, you forgot "...and of course reboot to apply changes"
[10:56] <hobojoe> is kernel-image* the kernel tree in apt ?
[10:56] <hobojoe> linux-tree returns nothing for me
[10:56] <ighost> feestbijtje, thanks man
[10:56] <FeestBijtje> ighost, i prefer you to use MySQL its most easyest one and working better then postresql
[10:56] <FeestBijtje> ighost, here is the link to MySQL
[10:56] <FeestBijtje> ighost, here is the link to MySQL http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html#sect-database-server
[10:57] <ighost> feestbijtje, right, i'm a mysql user myself, but i have to use postgres for this particular project
[10:57] <robl_> .
[10:57] <ighost> feestbijtje you've used this howto and it worked, right? cuz i've tried some other ones that didn't quite work out
[10:58] <FeestBijtje> this worked on my computer and runed perfectly
[10:58] <FeestBijtje> ive used this faq on my work
[10:59] <hobojoe> OK maybe I'm going about this all the wrong way,I was trying to follow the dapper guide for the latest NVidia drivers. I've manually installed my own 2.6.16 kernel. Now when i try to follow the nvidia installe how-to it requests I install the linux-header package for my kernel so the nvidia driver can use it. But compiling by hand I don't have that package to install.
[10:59] <hobojoe> Can this still be done with my kernel or do I need to install a kernel-image and kernel-headers from the repo.
[11:00] <FeestBijtje> hobojoe, whats the error
[11:01] <Almenfors> hum.. i must have done something wrong here. ive put up samba account. but when i try access my server from lan i get no access directly.
[11:01] <hobojoe> FeestBijtje: It says in the Nvidia Latest Howto that i need to do this "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`"
[11:02] <hobojoe> but it errors out saying can't find linux-restricted-modules-2.6.16-ck3
[11:02] <hobojoe> This is Dapper btw.
[11:02] <Almenfors> i mean no login window or anything just.. you dont have permission...
[11:02] <FeestBijtje> hobojoe, do: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.16-ck3
[11:02] <hobojoe> I originally followed the Breazy nvidia install using the method #2
[11:03] <hobojoe> same problem, Can't find package
[11:03] <hobojoe> I followed the second method for breezy which required making your own headers for the driver.
[11:04] <hobojoe> But now with dapper, all methods require the restricted modules in the repo. I don't have any precompiled kernels installed. So i was wondering Do i need to use one ?
[11:04] <fourat_> how to get X started at boot
[11:04] <Almenfors> is there any command to list current accounts in samba.
[11:04] <hobojoe> OR can i get it working with dapper and this kernel, Because the same method (using the nvidia installer) doesn't work with dapper and 2.6.16
[11:04] <DBO> hobojoe, you are not required to use the restricted modules to install nvidia in dapper
[11:04] <FeestBijtje> hobojoe, i don't know lots about the dapper drake version
[11:05] <hobojoe> DBO: then how do i DO it? Because the How-to only lists methods with it.
[11:05] <hobojoe> I tryed using the smae method for breezy ( method #2) but It complains about libGL etc
[11:05] <DBO> hobojoe, I am running the nvidia drivers and I used the installer.  Though it takes some symlinking.  Let me see if I can get you the proper instructions
[11:05] <DBO> its not the same as breezy
[11:06] <hobojoe> oh ok, yeah It was complaining about symlinks, that why I thought the method was shot
[11:06] <hobojoe> Thanks
[11:06] <hobojoe> FeestBijtje Thanks anyway :)
[11:06] <DBO> hobojoe, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Dapper
[11:06] <DBO> method 2 there works just fine on dapper
[11:06] <CNN> holy CRAP  Ubuntu is great
[11:06] <DBO> CNN we know it
[11:07] <CNN> I am serious
[11:07] <CNN> I just built box for the first time
[11:07] <hobojoe> DBO: I tryed doing this sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc linux-headers-`uname -r` but It complained it didnt have my linux-header-2.6.16-ck3
[11:07] <DBO> welcome to the brotherhood CNN, but this is the tech support channel, for friendly banter check out #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:07] <CNN> using dirt cheap second hand parts
[11:07] <CNN> ok
[11:08] <DBO> hobojoe, it wont because there are no linux headers for 2.6.16 in repo
[11:08] <CNN> Thanks, I apologize for interpupting the tech support
[11:08] <DBO> you will have to install them yourself hobojoe
[11:08] <DBO> CNN, we all learn some way =)
[11:08] <hobojoe> DBO: I've already installed the manually
[11:08] <DBO> hobojoe, then skip that step
[11:08] <hobojoe> well i've created the modules and installed them with apt-get
[11:08] <hobojoe> ok
[11:08] <hobojoe> but when i run the installer, it complains about symlinking a couple libGL files
[11:09] <hobojoe> libGL.so and something else
[11:09] <hobojoe> it says it completes the install but some failed parts
[11:09] <DBO> hobojoe, did you try the instructions that the site I gave you gives you?
[11:09] <kevin_k> hello all
[11:09] <DBO> (wow I just confused myself...)
[11:09] <kevin_k> I seek the file or I can change associations file application kind reader mp3
[11:09] <kevin_k> ?
[11:09] <mormoloc> how can i install GTK+ 2.8 on ubuntu...do I have to compile it?
[11:09] <CNN> no
[11:09] <CNN> you can use synaptic to get it
[11:10] <CNN> make sure to add universe and multiverse
[11:10] <hobojoe> ?
[11:10] <mormoloc> CNN :))
[11:10] <DBO> hobojoe, did you extract the pkg.run file and do the install that way?
[11:10] <hobojoe> Ah no I didnt
[11:11] <[Spooky] > is there a way to check whats taking up all the space ?
[11:11] <DBO> hobojoe, please follow the instructions at the site I gave you (minus getting the headers)
[11:11] <hobojoe> OK ill givbe that one ago
[11:11] <hobojoe> cheers
[11:13] <Rower> i have this problem in the install, everything is installed, then its going to demount the cd rom, and it stops.. any way i can continue the installation ..? ive tried to push the cd-rom in and out of the cd tray.. but nothing happeneds..
[11:14] <TheBigToe> which folder do I need to put the Java JRE in?
[11:15] <linux_galore> Rower: on the front of the cdrom is a small hole, push a pin through is, there is a reset switch behind it
[11:15] <TheBigToe>  which folder do I need to put the Java JRE in?
[11:15] <Rower> linux_galore: you sure?
[11:15] <hastesaver> how do I find out how my memory is used up? (Which processes are using how much, etc.)
[11:16] <Madpilot> TheBigToe, have you seen the java page on the Ubuntu wiki?
[11:16] <Rower> linux_galore: i can get the cd-rom in and out..
[11:16] <TheBigToe> nope :(
[11:16] <Rower> linux_galore: the original way
[11:16] <linux_galore> Rower: ooh you want to mount it ??
[11:16] <TheBigToe> Madpilot, link?
[11:16] <linux_galore> Rower: is it a data cd
[11:16] <Rower> demount
[11:16] <Otacon22> what i have to do for write a data on parallel?
[11:16] <Rower> linux_galore: its the ubuntu install cd.. stops at 27%
[11:16] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell TheBigToe about java
[11:17] <linux_galore> Rower: sounds like a corrupted image
[11:17] <Rower> linux_galore: the cd-rom is fucked up.. and i want to continue the installation.. but in some way.. the linux system doesent realize that the cd rom is out
[11:17] <DBO> !language
[11:17] <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.
[11:17] <Rower> what does the reset switch do on the cd-rom ?
[11:17] <TheBigToe> !multiverse
[11:17] <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
[11:17] <[Spooky] > is there a way to check whats taking up all the space on a partion ? i have like 500 mb left on my /
[11:18] <t-thing> Hi! How to use mutt with notify-send to inform about new emails?
[11:18] <linux_galore> Rower: resets the firmware inside the cd drive, you might have a stalled drive
[11:18] <DBO> [Spooky] , well I suppose you could use du...
[11:19] <linux_galore> Rower: sometimes the firmware in the actual drive goes south
[11:19] <Rower> haha
[11:19] <linux_galore> Rower: have to reset it
[11:19] <Rower> im going to try it :D
[11:19] <Rower> thanx
[11:19] <Rower> *searching for something pointy*
[11:20] <DBO> [Spooky] , heheh, I havent tried this but I think "du | sort -r | head -40" will tell you your 40 largest files...
[11:22] <hastesaver> [Spooky] , sure. go to a directory, and do "du -ms * | sort -n " to get the files in order of size. But it can take a long time
[11:23] <DBO> hastesaver, sure, make it readable *grumbles about wishing I thought of that*
[11:25] <hastesaver> DBO, heh, I have the line -->alias dM='du -ms * .[^.] * | sort -n'<-- in my .bashrc... when you have a 100 MB disk quota at college, you'll need to do that often :)
[11:26] <DBO> hastesaver, meh, on the contrary, use du enough and the -ms doesnt even matter to you =P
[11:27] <binks> morning ubuntu friends
[11:28] <Rower> okay
[11:29] <Rower> now the install is fucked up
[11:29] <hastesaver> DBO, it doesn't look good without the s -- it goes recursively and shows every single file, instead of just the ones at the top. And then, if you use -s, you also have to give *, and give .* (for big directories like .mozilla), and give .[^.] * so that it doesn't go into other directories... ;)
[11:29] <Rower> how do i remake the ubuntu install?
[11:29] <binks> hey language
[11:29] <Rower> binks: sorry
[11:29] <binks> what you broke mate
[11:29] <linux_galore> find -size +10000 -print also is a good trick to isolate space hogging file
[11:29] <linux_galore> files*
[11:30] <DBO> hastesaver, yeah, I just wanted to give him the top 40 files on his system though =P  if you did that from the root directory it would give you too much help
[11:31] <linux_galore> find ~/  -size +10000 -print   minor alteration
[11:31] <hastesaver> linux_galore, hmm yes, and it's *much* faster too. Thanks. (What's the -print for?)
[11:32] <linux_galore> hastesaver: print to screen
[11:32] <binks> anyone no of any kids stuff on linus to help them learn to read my boy is 5
[11:32] <binks> the -print displays the results
[11:32] <DBO> binks, edutainment has tons of stuff like that =)
[11:32] <hastesaver> binks, do you want stuff about linux or Linus himself? ;) (Not that I know either, though)
[11:33] <linux_galore> blind: do you mean Linux ?? Linus is a person
[11:33] <binks> just stuff to teach him to read and make it fun
[11:33] <binks> ill google edutainmaent cheers
[11:33] <DBO> I hear childsplay isnt that bad, you can look at that
[11:33] <linux_galore> binks: yeah there are a few projects for children
[11:33] <shriphani> guys tell me the file that contains the list of commands executed at boot time
[11:34] <shriphani> in ubuntu of course
[11:34] <DBO> shriphani, there are a whole bunch of them actually, most are stored in /etc/init.d
[11:34] <binks> there may be more than one if im correct
[11:34] <shriphani> ok
[11:35] <shriphani> i just wanted to check it out
[11:35] <roryy> shriphani: there are lots. /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh is a place you can add commands
[11:35] <shriphani> i used just that one
[11:35] <linux_galore> binks: http://www.gnu.org/education/software.html
[11:35] <roryy> shriphani: i believe tldp.org has a document on how linux boots ('from boot-loader to bash prompt' or something like that)
[11:36] <shriphani> i added the commands to make pagefile.sys my swap file @ boot time
[11:36] <binks> cheers linux_galore
[11:36] <xor_not_and> linuxfromscratch.org is the best place to research that
[11:36] <eumario> Schwing baby!
[11:36] <anonymouse> anyone here familiar with.. ubuntu uses unionfs right?
[11:36] <linux_galore> binks: might also want to look at tuxpaint, its photoshop for kids under 8
[11:37] <anonymouse> I'm trying to figure out why it doesn't have unionctl installed and how i can get it
[11:37] <ompaul> anonymouse, usually it uses ext3
[11:37] <hastesaver> binks, Edubuntu? (the package edubuntu-desktop ?)
[11:37] <binks> yes he loves tuxpaint already also my 3year old plays on that
[11:37] <anonymouse> my desktop cd's "df" says root is using unionfs
[11:37] <eumario> anonymouse: For the LiveCD version of Ubuntu, it uses UnionFS.
[11:37] <linux_galore> binks: http://www.newbreedsoftware.com/tuxpaint/
[11:38] <DBO> anonymouse, full install uses ext3
[11:38] <kevin_k> I seek the file or I can change associations file application kind reader mp3
[11:38] <xor_not_and> adobe bought out macromedia, now they have products under $500
[11:38] <kevin_k> thx
[11:38] <anonymouse> full disclosure: i'm using dapper beta.  but no one there answered so I failed back to here =)
[11:38] <linux_galore> binks: lots of stuff listed on freshmeat.net -> http://freshmeat.net/search/?q=children&section=projects&Go.x=0&Go.y=0
[11:38] <DBO> anonymouse, sorry, I wasnt looking there...  did you try installing breezy and doing the upgrade like suggested?
[11:39] <anonymouse> DBO unfortunately breezy doesn't detect my sata card so no dice
[11:39] <binks> :):)
[11:39] <anonymouse> current strategy is i want to just use the desktop cd in persistent mode.  which doesn't boot
[11:39] <linux_galore> binks: should keep em busy
[11:39] <DBO> anonymouse, argle... I wonder why the heck its doing that...  file a bug report?
[11:39] <anonymouse> so now I'm trying to think if i can just merge a branch onto the unionfs at run time
[11:40] <anonymouse> but unionctl is not installed!
[11:40] <tony_> hi when using chown how can i specify all users? 'Anybody' doesnt work.
[11:40] <xor_not_and> is the module even packed with the kernel?
[11:40] <binks> http://gcompris.net/-en-  << this looks like the trick to start with thanks alot Again why i love ubuntu the people make this distro great
[11:40] <DBO> anonymouse, sudo apt-get install unionfs-utils (maybe?)
[11:40] <anonymouse> it's as if this whole thing was designed to tantalize me with almost being able to work, but strategically blocking every possible avenue to my success =P
[11:41] <DBO> anonymouse, your motherboard doesnt have native SATA, you are using a card correct?
[11:41] <hicham> well I have the firestart and i configured yet my connection is not being shared with my brothers pc
[11:41] <hicham> :S
[11:41] <linux_galore> anway Im of to dinner
[11:41] <DBO> hicham, did you configure the internet connection sharing in firestarter?
[11:42] <anonymouse> DBO: it does have native sata, and all OS's so far detect those two drives.  but not the other 4 on the sata card
[11:42] <anonymouse> only dapper detects those
[11:42] <hicham> yes
[11:42] <hicham> i configured it
[11:42] <DBO> hicham, do you have two nic cards?
[11:42] <hicham> yes
[11:42] <hicham> one for the ppp connection
[11:42] <DBO> hicham, ifconfig -> pastebin
[11:42] <hicham> and one for the lan
[11:42] <DBO> anonymouse, uhhhhhhh... brain go implode...
[11:43] <xor_not_and> QUESTION: What's the difference between Ubuntu and Debian rebuilt with different packages and boot scripts?
[11:43] <hicham> and the ping works on both sides
[11:43] <shriphani> can anyone tell me what visudo is ?
[11:43] <anonymouse> DBO: I know what you mean
[11:43] <tony_> hi im getting this error when trying to open 'System-->Add application'
[11:43] <hastesaver> shriphani, it's the way to edit the sudoers file.
[11:43] <DBO> xor_not_and, for the most part, newer kernel, newer modules, more packages...
[11:43] <shriphani> ok
[11:43] <xor_not_and> visudo is X11 user manager
[11:43] <shriphani> is it the only way ?
[11:43] <hastesaver> shriphani, and the sudoers file keeps the list of who is allowed to do what with sudo
[11:43] <shriphani> ok
[11:43] <shriphani> i had a few problems when i went and used visudo as well
[11:43] <hastesaver> shriphani, it's the recommended way. It calls $EDITOR, actually, so you can use it with any editor (not necessarily vi)
[11:44] <tony_> Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file.
[11:44] <shriphani> ok
[11:44] <tony_> does anyone knows how to fix this?
[11:44] <tony_> thanks in advance.
[11:45] <Madpilot> tony_, do any of the admin tools work for you?
[11:45] <xor_not_and> Is ubunto packaged with 2.6.16.16 yet?
[11:45] <shriphani> how do i use the terminal to open a workspace ?
[11:45] <DBO> xor_not_and, no, dapper uses 2.16.15
[11:45] <tony_> Madpilot, no, all gives me the same error.
[11:45] <DBO> s/2.16.15/2.6.15/
[11:46] <Frogzoo> xor_not_and: and dapper is beta til june 1
[11:46] <baardi> Can anyone help me on updating world of warcraft? i can an error on one of the updates!
[11:46] <Frogzoo> !wow
[11:46] <ubotu> To run WoW properly, Wine needs to be built from source https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WorldofWarcraft and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingWineFromSource
[11:47] <DBO> xor_not_and, ubuntu is on a 6 month release cycle, debian is on a geological release cycle... thats a good enough reason for lots of home users
[11:47] <hicham> nothing works!
[11:47] <DBO> hicham, can you please put the output of the command "ifconfig" to pastebin for me so I can start troubleshooting =)
[11:47] <DBO> !tell hicham about pastebin
[11:48] <xor_not_and> Has the ubuntu devs considered useing BSD  style internals before, sense they are more stable and secure?
[11:48] <hicham> root@ubuntu:~# ifconfig -> pastebin
[11:48] <hicham> ifconfig: option `-' not recognised.
[11:48] <hicham> ifconfig: `--help' gives usage information.
[11:48] <Madpilot> xor_not_and, you could try #ubuntu-devel if you want to chat w/ the devs
[11:48] <ompaul> xor_not_and, its linux based they use whatever linux provides
[11:48] <tony_> Madpilot, when googled i read that i need to change ownership of .Xauthority file, but there is one file per user. so where should i change? the file for root, or file for the current user?
[11:48] <Madpilot> tony_, file for current user, I think
[11:49] <hicham> eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0E:2E:6E:B1:5B

[11:49] <chmod775> dapper rocks
[11:49] <tony_> Madpilot, ok. then there is another problem, how to specify the owner of file as 'Anybody'. This is what a solution page told me to do. But chown says 'Anybody' is invalid user.
[11:50] <chmod775> finally got mine upgraded
[11:50] <chmod775> hehehehe
[11:50] <hicham> how do I use pastebin
[11:50] <Frogzoo> chmod775: > breezy?
[11:50] <Madpilot> tony_, what page are you reading?
[11:50] <chmod775> dapper drake, Frogzoo
[11:50] <ompaul> DBO I regret to concur
[11:50] <hicham> ah ok i understood
[11:50] <Frogzoo> chmod775: sure, but any compelling reason to move up from breezy?
[11:50] <Madpilot> hicham, you paste your stuff in it, then paste *only* the pastebin URL you get to this channel
[11:50] <tony_> Madpilot, this is the page  http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=781066&postcount=13
[11:51] <chmod775> Frogzoo, no compelling reason, I just wanted to have the feel of the new distro
[11:51] <tony_> Madpilot, sorry this is the correct page : https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-June/039871.html
[11:52] <ompaul> tony_, >>sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg <<that other one is out of date
[11:52] <Frogzoo> chmod775: it's heretical I know - but breezy already does everything I need
[11:52] <Madpilot> tony_, "sudo rm ~/.Xauthority" - and read the next two or three lines below that phrase in the URL you just gave
[11:52] <anonymouse> no Frogzoo; it would only be heretical if you were saying that in #ubuntu+1
[11:52] <DBO> Frogzoo, heretic =P
[11:52] <chmod775> Hehehe...Yes breezy was also too good, met my every requirement
[11:52] <tony_> Madpilot, ok thank you. i will try that then.
[11:53] <Madpilot> tony_, it's OK to remove (rm) .Xauthority because it gets re-created on every new login
[11:53] <hicham> i pasted the ifconfig eth1 in the pastebin
[11:53] <tony_> Madpilot, ok. thanks for that information. i was afraid to do so :-)
[11:53] <DBO> hicham, link?
[11:53] <ompaul> hicham, you should bring back the url
[11:54] <tony_> Madpilot, one more doubt, do i need to restart X to see effect of changing ownership of the .Xauthority?
[11:54] <DBO> hicham, i needed the output from ifconfig, not ifconfig eth1 =)
[11:54] <Madpilot> tony_, yes - do the rm command in terminal, then hit Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill & restart X
[11:54] <tony_> Madpilot, ok thank you.
[11:55] <hicham> ok i posted the ifconfig
[11:55] <DBO> hicham, link?
[11:56] <hicham> DBO sorry it's the first time I am being in here
[11:56] <enyc> meep
[11:56] <ompaul> DBO hicham its this one http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14330
[11:56] <DBO> thanks ompaul
[11:56] <hicham> yes
[11:56] <ompaul> DBO, at least he used his nic - hicham some people don't use their nic when posting leading to confusion
[11:57] <DBO> ompaul, Im so guilty of that...
[11:58] <DBO> hicham, ok, can you please go to the windows box, and enter ipconfig into a command prompt and tell me what IP address it gives you
[11:58] <hicham> 192.168.0.2
[11:58] <hicham> it's a static ip that i assigned to it
[11:59] <DBO> hicham, at the windows box type "ping 64.233.161.104"
[11:59] <Viesis541536759> how I can instal Ubuntu Linux on HDD, where I already have installed win xp pro ?
[12:00] <DBO> Viesis541536759, you will either need to resize windows partition, or delete the windows install and repartition the disk
[12:00] <hicham> request timedout
[12:01] <DBO> hicham, in Firestarter -> edit -> preferences -> firewall -> network settings
[12:01] <DBO> what boxes do you have chekced?
[12:01] <OlliK> proxy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo?highlight=%28windows%29
[12:01] <proxy> file system can be NTFS, or need to be FAT32 ?
[12:01] <hicham> yes what do i do to the network settings
[12:02] <DBO> proxy, can be NTFS or FAT32, but you can only write to FAT32 in linux
[12:02] <OlliK> proxy: If you want to share files between linux and windows, you'd better do a "storage" partition that is FAT32 so that both can read and write on it
[12:02] <DBO> hicham, what are each of the settings set to?
[12:02] <OlliK> proxy: I have done exactly that
[12:02] <hicham> internet connected network device: ppp0
[12:03] <OlliK> proxy: I left some 20GB for Windows XP, that partition is NTFS
[12:03] <hicham> lan connected device eth1
[12:03] <OlliK> proxy: then I have 160GB storage partition FAT32
[12:03] <OlliK> proxy: and then 20GB for linux (ext3)
[12:03] <DBO> hicham, and the two check boxes?
[12:03] <hicham> DBO, enable internet connection sharing is checked
[12:03] <OlliK> proxy: so there is the storage FAT32 where I keep all the music and stuff so that I can play it on both operating systems
[12:04] <dli> OlliK, 160GB for fat32?
[12:04] <OlliK> proxy: although Linux can read on NTFS, the writing is not still implemented so well
[12:04] <hicham> DBO, enable dhcp is not checked
[12:04] <DBO> hicham, check the second one as well and use DHCP on the windows box
[12:04] <proxy> i see

[12:04] <OlliK> dli: about that.. seems to be 141GB
[12:05] <proxy> so, how can I make another partition with FAT32 file system ?
[12:05] <dli> OlliK, 160/1.024^3*0.95 = 141
[12:05] <hicham> When i enable the dhcp firestart displayed an error that says firewall cannot start
[12:06] <DBO> hicham, what does the error message say exactly?
[12:06] <OlliK> dli: oh.. right
[12:07] <hicham> failed to start firewall check pls check your network device settings and make sure you are connected to the internet
[12:07] <hicham> unknown error
[12:07] <DBO> hicham, "sudo apt-get install dhcp"
[12:08] <hicham> done
[12:08] <hicham> now?
[12:08] <joosep> hi i'm having trouble getting umlauted characters to work on dapper
[12:08] <DBO> hicham, try it again with dhcp
[12:09] <dli> OlliK, ext3 also reserves 5% for inode tables
[12:09] <joosep> from the estonian alphabet
[12:09] <joosep> i get some libxklavier error on startup
[12:09] <hicham> same error
[12:09] <hicham> should i change something in the dhcp server detail or i leave it as is
[12:09] <hicham> ?
[12:10] <DBO> hicham, ok, uncheck the DHCP for now
[12:10] <joosep> "Error in activating XKB configuration"
[12:10] <joosep> any ideas, i've been at it for days now
[12:10] <hicham> done
[12:10] <DBO> hicham, on the windows box, what did you set to your default gateway and for your DNS servers?
[12:10] <hicham> the ip address of the ubuntu
[12:11] <hicham> 192.168.0.1
[12:11] <dli> joosep, pastebin.com your Xorg.0.log , also search your syslog for errors
[12:11] <DBO> hicham, and DNS?
[12:11] <hicham> same
[12:11] <DBO> hicham, cat /etc/resolve.conf
[12:11] <joosep> sec dli
[12:12] <DBO> hicham, use the IP listen there for DNS on the windows box
[12:12] <DBO> hicham, erm, cat /etc/resolv.conf
[12:12] <joosep> (WW) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap
[12:12] <hicham> resolve.conf no such file or directory
[12:12] <joosep> it says there
[12:12] <iNiku> hmm. slightly OT, but does anyone remember the name of the vnc viewer that works "blind", sort of like a dual-head setup where you move the mouse to the edge of the screen and it warps to the other screen?
[12:12] <joosep> pastebin.com doesn't load atm
[12:12] <DBO> hicham, yeah I know, it /etc/resolv.conf
[12:13] <hicham> ok
[12:13] <hicham> did it saw it late
[12:13] <hicham> i use the ip i got from the cat
[12:13] <hicham> in the dns of the windows?
[12:13] <DBO> yes
[12:13] <hicham> ok
[12:14] <DBO> make sure you have applied firestarters settings hicham
[12:14] <DBO> and they SHOULD be able to connect...
[12:14] <joosep> http://pastebin.com/727891 dli
[12:15] <proxy> when I have been instaled 2 os, and when I boot pc, PC will ask me what os i want to boot?
[12:15] <joosep> http://pastebin.com/727894 is my syslog
[12:16] <hicham> yes it will ask u as long as it sees both of your os
[12:16] <DBO> hicham, and???  did you get internet?
[12:17] <hicham> 1s i'll try now

[12:17] <DBO> joosep, have you put up your xorg.conf?
[12:17] <joosep> i'll do it now
[12:18] <DBO> thanks =)
[12:18] <hicham> no
[12:18] <hicham> no internet
[12:18] <DBO> hicham, make sure there isnt a type in your client configuration...
[12:18] <hicham> what?
[12:18] <DBO> make sure you didnt typo any of the IP addresses... it should be working
[12:18] <joosep> http://pastebin.com/727898 is my xorg.conf DBO
[12:19] <hicham> on the windows box
[12:19] <DBO> hicham, yes
[12:19] <joosep> i recently reinstalled breezy, that's where my problems began
[12:19] <t-thing> Can I have mutt to run some program when it recieves new mail?
[12:19] <iNiku> ah, x2vnc
[12:19] <dli> joosep, one moment, I saw this error in debian, but I forgot the solution I made
[12:19] <hicham> i shouldn't assign a static ip?
[12:19] <hicham> that's what ur saying?
[12:19] <joosep> i updated to dapper, hoping it would fix the problem
[12:19] <joosep> but it didn't work
[12:19] <ChaZ|Modding> i hate my computer...
[12:19] <dli> joosep, it's quite easy, but I had deleted the fix (a .sh script) myself
[12:20] <DBO> hicham, in firestarter, change the internet connected box to read eth0
[12:20] <joosep> i'll google around a bit then
[12:20] <hicham> ok
[12:20] <hicham> error firewall cannot start
[12:20] <DBO> joosep, you are loading GLCore twice, you should fix that
[12:20] <ChaZ> Lol Can anyone help me, My comp is: AMD64, and the gfx = Sapphire ATi Radeon X800 GTO. I can not even get into Ubuntu after first boot cos of X crashing!!! :(
[12:21] <ChaZ> tried installing ATI drivers, still no work :(
[12:21] <MikeAngelo> try the radeon driver, or dri
[12:21] <ChaZ> from?
[12:21] <joosep> where's the second one, DBO ?
[12:21] <dli> joosep, " ls -l /usr/share/X11/xkb ", check for broken links under it
[12:21] <MikeAngelo> first check from ATI pages your vide and the recommended driver
[12:21] <hicham> dbo what do i do?
[12:21] <DBO> joosep, it loads under glx as a submodule
[12:22] <joosep> ok, thanks
[12:22] <MikeAngelo> I got it working for M7, radeon 7500
[12:22] <DBO> hicham, did you change that configuration in firestarter to make your external connection eth0
[12:22] <DBO> joosep, so you should comment out "load Glcore"
[12:22] <hicham> yes the firewall did an error
[12:22] <DBO> hicham, same error as before?
[12:22] <hicham> yep
[12:22] <MikeAngelo> could anybody send me repo for ubuuntu audio codecs? ac3 doesn't work
[12:22] <DBO> hicham, ok, change it back to ppp
[12:22] <joosep> dli "ls: /usr/share/X11/xkb: No such file or directory"
[12:23] <dli> joosep, this might be related, have a look at the last portion of the page, http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2159695.html#2159695
[12:23] <DBO> hicham, make sure you firestarter is configure for internet sharing (even though it doesnt seem to work) and do "sudo iptables --list > iptables"
[12:23] <dli> joosep, this is similar to what the fix I found for a debian box
[12:23] <DBO> hicham, that will make a new file called iptables in your current directory, please put that in pastebin
[12:24] <hicham> wait a little
[12:24] <hicham> should i remove the static ip from the windows box?
[12:24] <ChaZ> MikeAngelo, its just the ati propietary drivers what im trying to use
[12:24] <DBO> hicham, no, just make sure you dont have any typoes on the windows box
[12:25] <dli> joosep, also this bug report, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6124 , tell me it works or not
[12:25] <MikeAngelo> ChaZ, check ATI pages, they have good explanations where to go and what is supported where
[12:25] <ChaZ> lol ok
[12:25] <hicham> what are typoes????????
[12:26] <MikeAngelo> get all the linux-headeres, + dri source compile it and change xorg.conf to radeon driver
[12:26] <MikeAngelo> it a bit longer that reading it but could work...
[12:26] <DBO> hicham, its erm... where you mess up typing... like typing 192.186.0.2 instead of 192.168.0.2
[12:26] <MikeAngelo> in dapper it got automatically loaded
[12:26] <joosep> brb i'll restart X
[12:26] <hicham> ah ok
[12:27] <Diazepam> guys how does one order more than 1 ubuntu CD.  Its for a LUG located in Australia

[12:28] <Madpilot> Diazepam, shipit will send you boxfuls if you ask - I got 50 Breezy CDs sent to me
[12:28] <joosep> i installed xkeyboard-config
[12:28] <hicham> my stupid brother had some proxy settings in his internet explorer
[12:28] <Diazepam> Madpilot - okay excellant
[12:28] <joosep> none of the xkb directories existed

[12:28] <DBO> hicham, it works now?
[12:28] <hicham> yep
[12:28] <hicham> thanks
[12:28] <DBO> hicham, alright, best of luck
[12:28] <hicham> ok man
[12:29] <dli> joosep, good, within the freedesktop bugs
[12:29] <joosep> yes
[12:29] <dli> joosep, it's not a gentoo bug, but more likely a general bug for xorg upgrading
[12:30] <joosep> i hope it gets fixed for dapper's release
[12:30] <joosep> otherwise it's a show-stopper
[12:30] <dli> joosep, not really, because it doesn't break for everyone, I suppose, only a few lucky ones
[12:30] <DBO> joosep, most people dont have your problem afaik
[12:30] <RemyLaptop> hey guys, how do you get something added in to the repositories?  I'd love teamspeak to be in there :)  http://www.goteamspeak.com/index.php?page=downloads

[12:38] <selinium> RemyLaptop: Talk to the Motu chaps.
[12:38] <RemyLaptop> Motu being ?
[12:38] <RemyLaptop> !motu
[12:38] <ubotu> motu is probably the Masters of the Universe are the brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU )
[12:38] <dli> RemyLaptop, also, don't repeat :(
[12:39] <RemyLaptop> dli - It worked didn't it?  ;-)
[12:39] <Coldfirex> Quick Q: I upgraded from the default i386 kernel to the the linux-k7 and it went fine, but Update Manager lists updates for the i386 kernel still.  Is this the common behavior (not listing k7, but the default kernel install)?
[12:39] <selinium> RemyLaptop: it is useful to npt repeat fo 5-10 mins, especially if it is busy! :)
[12:40] <DBO> Coldfirex, you need to uninstall the package "linux-image-386" and "linux-headers-386"
[12:41] <DBO> Coldfirex, but yes, it is normal behaviour, but should be corrected
[12:41] <markusa> He He He, two computers, same person. :P
[12:42] <selinium> DBO, I thought if you install the k7 headers it would read as a K7, I may of course be completely wrong! :)
[12:42] <Coldfirex> DBO: excellent, thanks for the help :)
[12:43] <DBO> selinium, it doesnt uninstall the old 386 metapackages
[12:43] <fyrestrtr> Coldfirex: you could just mask the package from synaptic
[12:45] <Coldfirex> fyrestrtr:  ya, sounds like the cleaner way would be to uninstall like DBO said right?
[12:46] <eumario> Mucho better.
[12:46] <zxh> hello
[12:46] <IceTox> Anyone good with these RAM shits?
[12:47] <DBO> perhaps if you erm... describe your problem a little better
[12:47] <selinium> DBO: true, but that is so as if the install fails, you still have a kernel to use to fix the problem. What I meant was I thought that if you in stall the k7 headers it will show under    uname -a
[12:47] <selinium> HI ompaul
[12:47] <DBO> selinium, the uninstall of the metapackage does not remove his old kernel
[12:48] <selinium> DBO: true, I think I am getting the wrong end of the stick, we are both saying the same things! :)
[12:49] <selinium> Coldfirex: It is better to uninstall the unused kernel
[12:49] <VladDrac> #ubuntu+1 is empty so I'll ask here,
[12:49] <VladDrac> what's the status of dapper RC? The website is rather confusing
[12:49] <Frogzoo> !dapper
[12:49] <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
[12:49] <selinium> Coldfirex: otherwise whenever there is an update it will download both k7 and 386 kernels.
[12:50] <IceTox> Anyone here is good with SDram? I used to have a 256MB SDram 133 in my computer.. Today I added another 512MB SDram 133, and the use of 'free' tells me that I have 758MB ram I think.. Here's the 'free' output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14331
[12:50] <VladDrac> ah crap.. stupid colloquy joins the channel on the wrong network
[12:50] <VladDrac> sorry :)
[12:51] <dli> IceTox, it's normal, why asking?
[12:52] <DBO> IceTox, thats computer math, its ok =)
[12:52] <Coldfirex> selinium: Cool, would it be something along the lines of this? sudo dpkg -r kernel-i386 and then the headers?
[12:52] <eumario> IceTox, Just to throw my 2 cents in, yeah, everything looks kewl.
[12:52] <IceTox> dli, because my computer doesn't seem to be any faster at all.. It's still lagging while starting applications and such..
[12:53] <eumario> IceTox, how fast is your Processor?
[12:53] <IceTox> it's a 1.8ghz eumario
[12:53] <DBO> Coldfirex, "sudo dpkg -r linux-image-386 linux-headers-386"
[12:53] <selinium> Coldfirex: Yep or sudo apt-get remove <kernel> <headers>
[12:54] <eumario> IceTox, Hmmm..... Dunno, maybe the lag is internal to the program you run?
[12:54] <complexity> how do i backup a xbox game i have with linux?
[12:54] <Coldfirex> thank you :)
[12:54] <IceTox> ok, thanks
[12:54] <eumario> IceTox, I'm on a 2.7 GHz, with 768 Megs of ram, and I do still notice a lag between when I start an app, and it loads up completely.
[12:54] <IceTox> eumario, such as xchat and amsn?
[12:55] <eumario> IceTox, X-Chat, yes, aMSN, dunno, don't have that installed.
[12:55] <stjepan> how to install divx4 codecs for ubuntu?
[12:55] <giovanni> ciao a tutti!
[12:55] <stjepan> what package is it?
[12:55] <IceTox> eumario, ok, guess I'm having unrealistic thoughts for my computer then :-)
[12:55] <stjepan> and where is libdix4inux?
[12:55] <dli> IceTox, if you close the program, and open it again, is it faster the second time

[01:01] <RemyLaptop> hey guys, has anyone had any experience getting teamspeak client to work on ubuntu ?
[01:01] <RemyLaptop> it all works fine except that other's can't hear me !
[01:01] <RemyLaptop> which is wierd cause skype works fine
[01:01] <dli> IceTox, 30-40% of which program? that's not common
[01:01] <raboof_> I have a laptop that is sometimes connected to a TFT screen.
[01:02] <raboof_> Is it possible to switch between dual- and single-head mode without having to close my session?
[01:02] <IceTox> Xorg, wish and top
[01:02] <IceTox> dli,  Xorg, wish and top
[01:03] <selinium> RemyLaptop: no idea, have you checked that you are using the right /dev/dsp
[01:03] <dli> IceTox, can you close your running programs? just keep top and this irc, see what happens
[01:03] <selinium> RemyLaptop: Is teamspeak another voip?
[01:03] <RemyLaptop> selinium - it's wierd cause I can hear everything else perfectly
[01:03] <RemyLaptop> selinium - it's like irc but with voice
[01:03] <tony_> hi how can i instruct dpkg to install a package without checking for dependencies?
[01:03] <RemyLaptop> so you all go into a room and talk together
[01:04] <FuzzyTheBear> Guys .. im tryig to find a how to for SSH ... i isntalled it but i got errors : Could not load host key  errors .. im sure im missing something .. but i dont know what .. any good reference would be appreciated :)  thanks
[01:04] <selinium> RemyLaptop: Ok...
[01:04] <chamo> hello
[01:04] <dli> tony_, yes, you can do that, but still don't do that
[01:04] <selinium> there is openwengo as a skype substitute that works well on Ubuntu/Windoze   www.openwengo.com
[01:04] <tony_> dli, why? I want to install yahoo messenger and I saw that this is the only way !
[01:05] <bimberi> tony_: --force-depends (use with care :) )
[01:05] <IceTox> dli, oh, wish was amsn.. :-)
[01:05] <RemyLaptop> selinium - do you know if there's anyway that the microphone could be different to the speakers?   Or do you think it would be an issue with the program itself ?
[01:05] <tony_> bimberi, thank you.
[01:05] <shriphani> guys what do i need to play mp4 files in  ubuntu breezy ?
[01:05] <bimberi> tony_: yw :)
[01:05] <dli> tony_, use gaim (which is installed by default)
[01:06] <tony_> dli, yes but then I do not have voice chat :(
[01:06] <ghaal> hi all!
[01:06] <IceTox> and yeah dli, it's running so much faster not running amsn.. :-) But still, gaim doesn't have the same feautrues as I get from amsn, so I guess I'll just live with that delay :-)
[01:06] <shriphani> hello ?
[01:06] <dli> IceTox, try kopete
[01:06] <Tarzipan> moin
[01:06] <selinium> RemyLaptop: the program should have a setup preferences panel to set up what resources to use. Also another program (skype) may have grabbed the resource so it is not available.
[01:06] <gholen> is the ubuntu servers down?
[01:06] <shriphani> how do i play mp4 in ubuntu ?
[01:07] <tony_> dli, Kopete is nice.
[01:07] <dli> tony_, I don't think you can have voice with ymessenger
[01:07] <rem_> shri -> Totem, Xine, mplayer ...
[01:07] <ghaal> can enyone pls tell me why everytime i try to use "apt-get install " i get "couldn't find package?
[01:07] <RemyLaptop> selinium - it's currently using /dev/dsp -  and to the best of my knowledge nothing else is currently using the resources... (skype is closed)  how can I check ?
[01:07] <tony_> dli, oh :-( too bad. Do you know any other messenger software that I can use with yahoo and can have atleast voice? if webcam is available that is better.
[01:07] <shriphani> totem doesnt play mp4 out of the box
[01:08] <rambo3> restart sound server and see
[01:08] <rem_> ghaal did you apt-cache search b4 to know the exact package name .. ?
[01:08] <raboof_> hm, looks like I want MergedFB
[01:08] <shriphani> can you tell me the package name to play my mp4 files ?
[01:08] <hastesaver> !tell shriphani about restricted
[01:08] <rem_> is your connexion working ...your source file right .. ?
[01:08] <dli> tony_, kopete (in kde 3.5.2) has webcam, but not sure about voice, gaim is planning for -vv, but not in the coming 2.0 release
[01:09] <ghaal> rem_ what i try to do is "sudo apt-get install xmms"
[01:09] <selinium> RemyLaptop: You can check to see what is using a resource (/dev/dsp/) but I cannot remember the command. Sorry! :)
[01:09] <ghaal> must i exactly specify the version?
[01:09] <RemyLaptop> lol
[01:09] <tony_> dli, i see.
[01:09] <RemyLaptop> anyone remember what command to use to see what's using /dev/dsp ?
[01:09] <gholen> this is starge, the IP-number to ubuntuservers are not 1.0.0.0, Or is it
[01:10] <selinium> ghaal do a    apt-cache search xmms    and see which version you wish to install
[01:10] <rem_> seems to be in the main rep .. is your apt source file correct ?
[01:10] <dli> tony_, you may want to try skype, which is not free software though
[01:11] <tony_> dli, i have skype but it is blocked in many of my friend's places. :-(
[01:11] <gholen> Dammit, how do i reset alla netvork settings?
[01:11] <dli> tony_, haha, I know skype is blocked by chinese government
[01:11] <selinium> rem_ ghaal needs to choose which version (386 k7) to use
[01:11] <rem_> shri: apt-get install
[01:11] <rem_> xmms-mp4 could work too ..
[01:11] <IceTox> dli, kpete was so not nice looking.. lol :-)
[01:11] <Archville> Hi.
[01:11] <hastesaver> tony_, gaim-vv supports voice, but it isn't very stable yet. I think Kopete has voice
[01:11] <tony_> dli, no i dont think so because i have a few chinese friends in skype.
[01:12] <lss> how do i find out the name of my network card?
[01:12] <Archville> I have a problem with any game using SDL. The sound works but it goes like 100 ms out of synch with video.
[01:12] <Archville>  any tip ?
[01:12] <selinium> rem_ ghaal    I am talking rubbish xmms should be in the repo....
[01:12] <rem_> I didnt see a 386 or k7 package for thazt ...but u might be right ..
[01:12] <dli> tony_, try, Ekiga
[01:12] <tony_> dli, my friends are still in college ;-)
[01:12] <tony_> dli, Ekiga.... ok googling :-) thank you.
[01:13] <gholen> It wont connect to the net. but IRC goes fine,
[01:13] <selinium> rem_ I was most definately wrong! :)
[01:13] <ghaal> apt-cache search xmms only gives me "libflac7 - Free Lossless Audio Codec - runtime C library
[01:13] <ghaal> libsmpeg0c2 - SDL MPEG Player Library - shared libraries
[01:13] <ghaal> "
[01:13] <RemyLaptop> anyone remember what command to use to see what's using /dev/dsp ?
[01:13] <selinium> ghaal: your repos must be borked.
[01:14] <selinium> !tell ghaal about repos
[01:14] <CrocoJet> good morning all
[01:14] <CrocoJet> how is fight 7 ... more stable ?
[01:14] <_mason> Hey
[01:14] <selinium> ghaal: Or I can give you a one line command to copy over your repos with a standard one.
[01:14] <mirak> hi
[01:15] <CrocoJet> I was testing Fc5 .. but not good .. lot big bugs .. I dont know if gnome 2.14 ..
[01:15] <mirak> is there something to read the docs inside /usr/share/doc/ ?
[01:15] <mirak> a gui
[01:15] <mirak> is there some GUI to read the docs inside /usr/share/doc/ ?
[01:15] <ghaal> that wolud be better ....
[01:15] <ghaal> 10x
[01:15] <RemyLaptop> selinium -  there's a setting in TS to turn the mic transmitting on with voice (ie, when ie hears something it turns on), but it's not turning on, which indicates that the sound isn't even getting to the TS client, so maybe it is getting tied up by something
[01:16] <Archville> !SDL
[01:16] <ubotu> Archville: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:17] <selinium> ghaal: are you using breezy?
[01:17] <CrocoJet> xGL is possible breezy ?
[01:18] <ghaal> selenium: i believe so :) it's ubuntu 5.10
[01:18] <selinium> ghaal: ok that is breezy...
[01:19] <selinium> ghaal: ok in a terminal >>    sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list_backup && sudo wget http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d6047 -O /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:19] <selinium> all one line
[01:20] <saquib> >> HELP: How do i Install the new 2.14 ver of GNOME in my Ubuntu? The synaptic package manager is not showing that!!
[01:20] <selinium> RemyLaptop: I am sorry, I dont know how to help you any further.... :(
[01:20] <RemyLaptop> that's ok  :)
[01:20] <RemyLaptop> I'll keep looking
[01:21] <saquib>  >> HELP: How do i Install the new 2.14 ver of GNOME in my Ubuntu? The synaptic package manager is not showing that!!
[01:21] <Frogzoo> saquib: you'll need to wait for dapper
[01:22] <saquib> there are these source files and stuffs in the GNOME site.. cant I do something from there??
[01:22] <selinium> saquib: I would wait until the 1st June. Dapper come with 2.14
[01:22] <baardi> anyone good at wow on linux? everything is working great except that it lags nonstop, major lags! if anyone know how to solve the problem, plx tell me. i've looked at the pages that everyone recommends, but it doesnt help.
[01:23] <rambo3> saquib, why not test dapper flight
[01:23] <selinium> saquib: Or you can update now. It is pretty stable. (read stable but could break before release)
[01:23] <saquib> whats dapper "flight" ?
[01:23] <selinium> saquib: Yep, it is what I am using now....
[01:23] <rambo3> baardi, did you test to start it with -noipx?
[01:23] <selinium> saquib: flight 2
[01:24] <rambo3> flight = beta[1-7] 
[01:24] <ghaal> selenium: thank you very much, the link you gave me solved the problem
[01:24] <CrocoJet> selinium: but I heard that exist many upload (heavy) everyday ... 50 Mb +-
[01:24] <saquib> oh i get it
[01:24] <selinium> CrocoJet: It does get heavily updated, but that is not such a bad thing on broadband....
[01:25] <saquib> is it buggy? i mean the dapper flight thing!
[01:25] <selinium> CrocoJet: I have only had one update today, but yesterday I had 54...
[01:25] <cpcgm> can anyone help me with a MIME-Type problem? It seems like all connections to applications are gone.
[01:25] <CrocoJet> selinium: ok
[01:25] <CrocoJet> selinium: not so bad .. then
[01:26] <CrocoJet> i was reading gnome 2.14 is stable , right ?
[01:26] <rambo3> dapper talk in dapper+1
[01:26] <CrocoJet> sounds that big problem is dependencies others programs ...
[01:26] <bimberi> saquib: the flights are intended to be 'free of showstopper bugs', subsequently staying up to date can mean breakage though
[01:27] <selinium> saquib: yes and no. If you are using it for standard stuff it will PROBABLY be fine. But as it is a beta, and can be broken at any point. (by something in the repos)
[01:27] <saquib> okay...
[01:27] <selinium> saquib: CrocoJet we should be in #ubuntu+1
[01:28] <saquib> i use 64 bit of ubuntu 5.10 beezy badger.... i couldn't compile/install Wine here as well. is this a general issue with this kernel?
[01:28] <CrocoJet> I think that wine is so so .. always full problems .. better vmware
[01:29] <saquib> vmware.. never heard of it. is it directly installable thru synaptic? or have to compile and stuff
[01:29] <chamo> vmware is a full OS emulator
[01:30] <CrocoJet> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VMware_Guide%3a_Installing_VMware_Server_on_Dapper_amd64
[01:30] <chamo> you have to download the workstation version on the web saquib
[01:30] <CrocoJet> running with vmplayer here ... not necessary vmwareworstation

[01:45] <SeMb0YNewtolinux> The APT Database will be opened in read-only mode, this means you cannot install/uninstall/upgrade anything. You have to run this program as root to be able to do that.
[01:45] <SeMb0YNewtolinux> why why?
[01:46] <mwe> SeMb0YNewtolinux: do what Frogzoo told you
[01:46] <Frogzoo> SeMb0YNewtolinux: can you read? ^^^

[01:47] <Frogzoo> !tell Abou about ooo2
[01:47] <mwe> Jenna: are you asking how to format a drive in windows?
[01:47] <XVampireX> Can anyone help me?
[01:48] <mwe> XVampireX: maybe if you provide more info, like the error it throws
[01:48] <XVampireX> It doesn't throw an error, it just doesn't mount the file system
[01:48] <XVampireX> And it won't let me into the GDM
[01:48] <XVampireX> err, KDM^
[01:48] <XVampireX> I'm on ubuntu right now
[01:49] <Tuzlo> is it possible to get root access to ftpd logins?
[01:49] <mwe> XVampireX: didn't you say it wouldn't mount / ?
[01:49] <XVampireX> Yeah, it wouldn't mount
[01:49] <mwe> XVampireX: how did you manage to get into ubuntu if / isn't mounted?
[01:49] <XVampireX> live cd
[01:49] <Tuzlo> live cd
[01:49] <mwe> XVampireX: so can you mount the drive from the live cd?
[01:50] <Tuzlo> its wont be in fstab
[01:50] <XVampireX> No, I'm running ubuntu off of live cd
[01:50] <mwe> so?
[01:50] <Jenna> mwe, no, from hoary live
[01:50] <mwe> XVampireX: yes you can mount it manually
[01:50] <XVampireX> how?
[01:50] <mwe> XVampireX: what is the partition that holds your ubuntu / filesystem?
[01:50] <XVampireX> just /
[01:50] <hyperstream> dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libgl1-mesa_6.4.1-0ubuntu8_i386.deb (--install):
[01:50] <hyperstream>  trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/libGL.so.1', which is also in package nvidia-glx
[01:50] <hyperstream> ??
[01:51] <mwe> XVampireX: no what is the drive device
[01:51] <rambo3> --force
[01:51] <mwe> XVampireX: like /dev/hda2 or sth
[01:51] <hyperstream> doesnt work
[01:51] <XVampireX> I don't know
[01:51] <whyami> !java
[01:51] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[01:51] <mwe> XVampireX: is it your primary hard drive and is it ide?
[01:51] <XVampireX> Yeah, I think it is
[01:51] <saquib> what is the package that i need to extract RAR files ???
[01:52] <Jenna> i just need to format it enough to hold the dapper iso
[01:52] <BazziR> saquib unrar
[01:52] <XVampireX> well, I only got 1 hard drive
[01:52] <XVampireX> don't know if IDE
[01:52] <mwe> XVampireX: open a terminal and type sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda and tell me what that gives you
[01:52] <saquib> thanks
[01:52] <Jenna> i'd do it in windows but i don't have any cd burning software for it and i thought this would be easer
[01:52] <mwe> XVampireX: put the output on paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[01:52] <Jenna> especially since this is the first day i've used windows in at least 4 years (no kidding)
[01:53] <XVampireX> Disk /dev/hda: 41.1 GB, 41174138880 bytes
[01:53] <XVampireX> Ah, okey
[01:53] <mwe> XVampireX: that's all it says? or are you going to paste the rest at paste.ubuntu-nl.org?
[01:54] <Jenna> so basically.. whats the command to write an ext partition from a terminal?
[01:54] <XVampireX> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14333
[01:54] <rambo3> baardi, to start wow try wine porgram.exe -noipx
[01:55] <Ayabara> anyone know of a good image viewer? is gthumb a good choice?
[01:55] <Frogzoo> Jenna: what exactly are you trying to do?
[01:55] <rootty> ghtumb is one of the best imho
[01:55] <mwe> XVampireX: how many partitions do you have for ubuntu besides the swap, 2?
[01:56] <XVampireX> yeah, 2
[01:56] <Jenna> Frogzoo, i'd like to use my root terminal to overwrite /dev/hdb1 with an ext3 partition
[01:56] <XVampireX>  / /home and /swap
[01:56] <mwe> XVampireX: ok
[01:56] <mwe> XVampireX: sudo mkdir /mnt/hda1 && sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
[01:57] <mwe> XVampireX: tell me if that works
[01:57] <XVampireX> it did something
[01:57] <chmod775> !xgl
[01:57] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[01:57] <mwe> XVampireX: which one is larger, /home or / ?
[01:57] <mwe> XVampireX: good
[01:57] <Jenna> I would have thought someone could tell me a one line command, but aparently not so! so i'll apt-get gparted in and use that instead :)
[01:58] <Frogzoo> Jenna: you absolutely sure the partition has no useful data?
[01:58] <Jenna> yes.
[01:58] <XVampireX> Yeah, it mounted it.... but how do I get it mounted when I startup ubuntu?
[01:58] <mwe> XVampireX: which one is larger, /home or / ?
[01:58] <Frogzoo> Jenna: sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb1
[01:58] <Jenna> thanks
[01:58] <mwe> XVampireX: I'm trying to figure out if you mounted / or /home
[01:59] <XVampireX> it mounted /
[01:59] <mwe> XVampireX: well ls /mnt/hda1, does that show boot/ in there?
[02:00] <XVampireX> I know what I'm saying, yes, it is /
[02:00] <XVampireX> and yes there is boot
[02:00] <baardi> rambo3, the -noipx command did not work, wow is still lagging. any other suggestions? :)
[02:00] <mwe> XVampireX: good
[02:00] <XVampireX> I know because I know how I partitioned
[02:01] <mwe> XVampireX: paste.ubuntu-nl.org the contents of /mnt/hda1/boot/grub/menu.lst and /mnt/hda1/etc/fstab please
[02:03] <XVampireX> how do I get all the content of /mnt/hda1/boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[02:03] <v3rmap> When I start a new application on my Ubuntu box, it does not appear in the taskbar (is it the gnome-panel?) on the screen. How can I fix it?
[02:03] <mwe> XVampireX: well open the file in gedit or something and paste one page at a time
[02:03] <v3rmap> This started happening yesterday after a rogue application crashed my gnome-panel
[02:04] <dli> v3rmap, which gnome version?
[02:04] <mwe> v3rmap: renaming ~/.gnome* will make it create a new profile when you log in next time
[02:04] <XVampireX> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14334
[02:05] <v3rmap> dli, It's gnome panel version 2.14. And mwe thanks for the ~/.gnome suggestion. I'll try it out.
[02:05] <mwe> XVampireX: /mnt/hda1/etc/fstab as well please
[02:05] <XVampireX> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14335
[02:05] <rambo3> baardi, then i dont know did you ask in #wineHq
[02:05] <ciaron> if i boot of a ubuntu live cd, will i be able to access my ntfs hd drives?
[02:06] <XVampireX> ciaron: yes
[02:06] <XVampireX> but temporarily
[02:06] <ciaron> read/write?
[02:06] <XVampireX> just read
[02:06] <XVampireX> but you'll need to do something to enable ntfs mounting
[02:07] <chmod775> is there any software for managing photos for my camera
[02:07] <chmod775> ?
[02:07] <dli> v3rmap, check your libwnck version, "dpkg -s libwnck"
[02:07] <ciaron> XVampireX: are you saying there's nothing on the livecd to do it straight away?
[02:07] <dli> v3rmap, check your libwnck version, " sudo dpkg -s libwnck "
[02:07] <XVampireX> ciaron: Yes, that's what I'm saying
[02:07] <mwe> XVampireX: fstab looks odd. can you boot the old kernel?
[02:07] <XVampireX> how?
[02:07] <v3rmap> dli, :Package `libwnck' is not installed and no info is available.
[02:08] <dli> v3rmap, sorry, my fault, it's libwnck-common
[02:08] <mwe> XVampireX: can you get the the grub menu at boot up? normally you do it by pressing esc before it start booting linux
[02:08] <v3rmap> dli, it is: 2.14.0-0ubuntu1
[02:09] <XVampireX> I can try to do it...
[02:09] <XVampireX> And what then?
[02:09] <ciaron> XVampireX: any idea if there'll be r/w ntfs support in dapper?
[02:09] <mwe> XVampireX: if that doesn't work I suspect we need to fix fstab
[02:09] <XVampireX> ciaron: Just read
[02:09] <dli> v3rmap, that's why, the wnck-applets bug is only fixed in libwnck-2.14.1
[02:09] <XVampireX> You need a special fix for write
[02:09] <mwe> ciaron: I still not 100% safe
[02:09] <mwe> ciaron: afaik
[02:10] <ciaron> mwe: read isn't 100% safe?
[02:10] <mwe> ciaron: yes
[02:10] <mwe> ciaron: it is in breezy as well
[02:10] <v3rmap> dli, it was working till yesterday until a bad application crashed the gnome-panel. Do you think it'll work if I delete ~/.gnome*?
[02:10] <mwe> v3rmap: just rename it
[02:10] <XVampireX> mwe: What if I get to the grub menu?
[02:10] <v3rmap> mwe, yeah that's what I meant
[02:11] <mwe> XVampireX: try booting the old kernel
[02:11] <XVampireX> Ah, wait, I'll brb then
[02:11] <mwe> XVampireX: it will be an option
[02:11] <dli> v3rmap, it will reset your gnome user settings, but gnome will crash again, so, upgrade gnome to 2.14.1 ( in dapper)
[02:11] <v3rmap> dli, but this has worked well for ages and only started crashing yesterday.
[02:12] <mwe> v3rmap: try what I suggested
[02:12] <mwe> v3rmap: I've had gnome fsck up my profile before
[02:12] <v3rmap> yes, here goes :)
[02:12] <mwe> v3rmap: it worked?
[02:12] <dli> v3rmap, it's a known gnome bug
[02:12] <mwe> gnome has done that for years sometimes
[02:13] <captainredbeard> is there any 5.1 audio editing programs for linux?
[02:14] <dmizer> need help with terminal server client. all i get is "connection refused"
[02:14] <Hobbsee> HyperStre[A] m: please kill that away message.
[02:14] <v3rmap> mwe that didn't work, and I find it strange that it didnt.
[02:14] <Hso> hey guys! :P can someone help me install azureus? I can't seem to find a download that still exists :(
[02:14] <mwe> v3rmap: yes
[02:15] <v3rmap> so I'll try to upgrade gnome as dli suggested.
[02:15] <XVampireX> Hi
[02:15] <mwe> v3rmap: tell me again exactly what happened before it started
[02:15] <XVampireX> Yes, I was able to load the earlier kernel
[02:15] <mwe> XVampireX: good
[02:15] <XVampireX> How can I fix it to load it automatically?
[02:15] <mwe> XVampireX: the new one is probably broken then
[02:16] <v3rmap> mwe, I ran this gtk application from the launcher (Alt-F2) and it crashed gnome-panel. When gnome-panel restarted, the icons were missing from the taskbar.
[02:16] <XVampireX> Can I fix it to load automatically?
[02:16] <mwe> XVampireX: you have savedefault in menu.lst so I think it will boot that kernel next time
[02:16] <XVampireX> Oh, ok, thanks :)
[02:16] <__filip_> Is it someone in here thats use Nicotine? I have made all the settings and now i whant to connect to an server but i cant. Why?
[02:17] <mwe> v3rmap: did you rename .gnome* from gnome?
[02:17] <v3rmap> yes, I renamed them .oldgnome*
[02:17] <mwe> v3rmap: maybe it saved the error again then
[02:17] <mwe> v3rmap: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop then login at the terminal and rename. try that
[02:17] <toko123> greetings
[02:18] <v3rmap> mwe, that's a possibility. I'll try what you suggest.
[02:18] <JeppeBird> greetings
[02:18] <dmizer> terminal server client shows connection refused, but i can ping the client.
[02:18] <toko123> no sound on install
[02:18] <saquib> I ave opened the menu.lst file inside my /boot/grub folder... what i need to do is change the kernel/OS that is selected by default while booting! how??
[02:18] <mwe> v3rmap: then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[02:18] <toko123> but I get sound thru the irc/client gaim?
[02:18] <dli> v3rmap, the gnome bug tracking, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316096
[02:19] <toko123> using sblive 5
[02:20] <v3rmap> mwe, still doesn't work. This is very mysterious.
[02:21] <papa> buenos dias
[02:21] <mwe> v3rmap: odd. you renamed all .gnome* dirs?
[02:21] <dli> v3rmap, quit gnome, in console or another wm/de, "rm -rf ~/.gnome*"
[02:22] <mwe> dli: he renamed them I think
[02:22] <saquib> >> I have opened the menu.lst file inside my /boot/grub folder... what i need to do is change the kernel/OS that is selected by default while booting! how??
[02:22] <v3rmap> dli, yes this time after "gdm stop", I "rm -rf"d all .gnome dirs
[02:22] <mwe> saquib: default=
[02:22] <dli> saquib, what do you want to do?
[02:22] <saquib> well i have two kernels
[02:22] <dli> v3rmap, and?
[02:23] <saquib> one is AMD-64 generic
[02:23] <saquib> and another is AMD-64-K8
[02:23] <saquib> i want the k8 one
[02:23] <saquib> by default
[02:23] <mwe> saquib: at the top of the file. default=0 to boot the first one I think
[02:23] <v3rmap> dli, and restarted gdm, but still see the same problem when I logged in.
[02:23] <dli> saquib, " sudo update-grub "
[02:23] <saquib> what wud that sudo update-grub do??
[02:23] <dli> v3rmap, you rmed the correct location?
[02:24] <saquib> make my current kernel default selected?
[02:24] <mwe> saquib: It wont change the default I think
[02:24] <v3rmap> yes, I'm positive, but I'll try this once again.
[02:24] <dli> saquib, read the output
[02:24] <saquib> ok

[02:26] <dli> saquib, don't flood here, learn about pastebin
[02:26] <saquib> sorry
[02:27] <mwe> saquib: put default=2 at the top of menu.lst
[02:27] <mwe> saquib: err. default 2
[02:27] <dli> saquib, interesting, you build those kernels?
[02:27] <mwe> saquib: not =
[02:27] <v3rmap> dli, mwe, it worked when I deleted .gconf this time. thanks for your help!
[02:27] <mwe> v3rmap: good
[02:28] <saquib> i jsut open that file with sudo and add this line as the FIRST line?? then save right?
[02:28] <saquib> default 2
[02:28] <mwe> saquib: I believe so yes
[02:28] <saquib> thanks!
[02:28] <mwe> saquib: mine says default 0 and boots the first entry
[02:29] <redloff_> how can I force totem to use mplayer codecs?
[02:29] <dli> saquib, better to keep default 0 , it might be confusing later, if you change it to default 2
[02:31] <mwe> saquib: I think by default everytime you boot a kernel that one becomes the default due to the savedefault option in menu.lst
[02:31] <ph8> morning all :)
[02:31] <ph8> can anyone tell me how to change my default movie player?
[02:31] <JeppeBird> how do i install my wireless network card, ubuntu doesnt recognize it at installation
[02:32] <dli> JeppeBird, which card ?
[02:32] <JeppeBird> Linksys wireless-G
[02:32] <saquib> here's i think uve counted 2: first is kernel 2.6.12-10-amd64-generic Default (=0 right?) then recover mode o=for that kernel (=1?) and then the K8 kernel (=2).. so im saying "default 2" to elect that K8 kernel b default right??
[02:33] <Frogzoo> !wifi
[02:33] <ubotu> methinks wifi is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto

[02:35] <JeppeBird> k thanks
[02:37] <saquib> >> WHILE booting, what do i press to edit this menu.lst file of GRUB??
[02:38] <dli> saquib, you can not, but you can press "e" to edit (for this booting), or "c" to command line
[02:38] <mwe> saquib: you cannot make permanent changes at boot time
[02:38] <dmizer> i want to remote into a win2000 machine via terminal server client so i can have a gui session.  but i keep getting connection refused.  but i can share files across the network no proble.
[02:39] <saquib> say i just edited that default 2, i want to changeit back to default o
[02:39] <saquib> can i do that in boot time???
[02:39] <mwe> saquib: no
[02:39] <mwe> saquib: you can choose the image you want at the menu though
[02:40] <mwe> saquib: if you remove default from menu.lst alltogether the last image you booted becomes default

[02:42] <Donvinzk> I did an rm -Rf on an important file, how can I recover it ?
[02:43] <saquib> mwe: thanks
[02:43] <Frogzoo> Donvinzk: you can't - it's gone
[02:43] <dli> Donvinzk, ext3 doesn't support undelete
[02:44] <dmizer> paco: your usb is probably not configured correctly or not found ... check dmesg for errors.
[02:45] <pinguino> #debianizzati
[02:46] <paco_> dmizer, what message i'm looking for?
[02:46] <ph8> can anyone tell me how to change my default movie player?
[02:47] <JeppeBird`ssh> it doesnt tell you "" ... is not your default player?"
[02:47] <slackern> ph8: i usually rightclick a file and select properties then change what program should open the selected file from the list there.
[02:48] <dmizer> paco: not sure exactly what to tell you to look for, but there should be obvious errors.
[02:48] <MrRio> ph8: right click on the movie type you wish to change, selecct properties, select it in Open With.., you can add new apps if its not there
[02:48] <ph8> awesome
[02:48] <ph8> cheers guys
[02:49] <MrRio> ph8: there's also System > Prefs > Removable Drives and Media, for defaults when putting in DVD's etc
[02:49] <WarOfAttrition> ok, I'm having a weird problem with audacious, except when on xfce, it says libaudacious.so is not found when trying to run it. Isn't that a little weird that it just works on xfce?
[02:49] <Flippit> hi guys - i've just installed ubuntu on an old machine, and as soon as it loads the gui (gnome) the screen just goes blank! monitor light goes orange like there is no signal!! can anyone help?
[02:49] <dmizer> paco: something related to uhci or ehci_hcd
[02:50] <chaos_of_apocaly> when we use smsclient we dont have to pay any extras?
[02:50] <ph8> ah nice one rio
[02:50] <ph8> xine > totem
[02:50] <dmizer> paco: uchi_hcd is for usb 1.1, and ehci_hcd is for 2.0
[02:51] <chaos_of_apocaly> smsclient is free?
[02:51] <WarOfAttrition> are you supposed to compile everything in gnome or it wont work there?
[02:51] <linux_galore> yeah if your using ext3 best to throw everything in your trash file first, that or do what I do and turn my whole home directory into cvs
[02:51] <WarOfAttrition> I thought the WM had nothing to do with it
[02:51] <Jenna> I'm using the hoary live cd, and just tried to burn with cdrecord, and it said it couldn't find /dev/sg*
[02:51] <Jenna> whats going on? i don't see my cd burner in the Computer screen of nautilus either
[02:52] <paco_> dmizer, i just posted the messages to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[02:52] <dmizer> paco: looking now.
[02:52] <Jenna> (nor do i see any of my other stuff, which should be there)
[02:52] <paco_> but that is just by inserting the camera (olympus)
[02:52] <JeppeBird`ssh> ubuntu_nl? paco_ are you dutch?
[02:52] <Jenna> do i need to modprobe anything?
[02:52] <linux_galore> now theres a project, a simple newbie tool that allows them to turn a /home/ directory into a cvs setup so they can recover old versions of files etc
[02:53] <WarOfAttrition> or perhaps it's checkinstall that is faulty?
[02:53] <WarOfAttrition> installs stuff in weird places?
[02:53] <JeppeBird`ssh> what irc client should i use with ubuntu?
[02:53] <Jenna> oh, hey, fun, the nautilus write to cd function isn't complaining!
[02:53] <Jenna> nevermind ^_^
[02:53] <WarOfAttrition> is there something better to create debian packages than checkinstall?
[02:53] <linux_galore> deleting file us annoying but even more annoying is losing old changes that you want back
[02:53] <linux_galore> is*
[02:53] <dmizer> paco: well, it knows the camera is there, and what camera it is.
[02:54] <Flippit> can anyone help me? when i try to go to the gui (ctrl+alt f7) the screen goes blank and monitor light goes orange... ctrl+alt+f1 takes me to text mode which diaplays fine...how do i get gui to work?
[02:54] <linux_galore> Flippit: try ctrl alt F6
[02:54] <linux_galore> Flippit: there are usually 8 virtual terminals
[02:55] <Flippit> linux_galore: ctrlalt f6 gives me a command line like f1 does!
[02:55] <paco_> dmizer, then why it doesn't show the dvd, cd, or the camera when plugged?
[02:55] <linux_galore> Flippit: press ctrl alt F7 then ctrl alt backspace
[02:55] <dmizer> paco: try modprobe -r uchi_hcd followed by modprobe uhci_hcd
[02:56] <linux_galore> Flippit: if X is running under F7 it should restart
[02:56] <Most_Wanted> :P
[02:56] <paco_> dmizer, if i go to the computer:/// i see the camera, but when mounting it fails... :(
[02:56] <paco_> dmizer, on it
[02:57] <Flippit> linux_galore: tried that - monitor light goes green, screen stays blank, then monitor light goes ornage again
[02:57] <paco_> dmizer, module not found...
[02:57] <dmizer> what?
[02:57] <dmizer> lol
[02:57] <paco_> why
[02:57] <linux_galore> Flippit: what monitor light
[02:58] <dmizer> paco: sorry, you have to do that with sudo.
[02:58] <dmizer> try this ...
[02:58] <Flippit> you know below the monitor, next to the on/off button - shows green when the screen is on and orange when comp is off (ie. no signal sent to monitor)
[02:58] <paco_> sorry, i should know already
[02:58] <arrick> Flippit, your haveing problems with your video card, the monitor isnt getting a signal
[02:59] <dmizer> paco: sudo modprobe -r uhci_hcd && modprobe uhci_hcd
[02:59] <linux_galore> Flippit: mine flashes when it off
[02:59] <Flippit> linux_galore: nah, this one just goes orange
[02:59] <arrick> yeah no signal
[02:59] <Flippit> arrick: just uninstalled win98 off the machine and video card was woeking fine!
[03:00] <paco_> dmizer, module not found ( sudo modprobe -r uhci_hcd ) and  Error inserting uhci_hcd (/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/kernel/drivers/usb/host/uhci-hcd.ko): Operation not permitted
[03:00] <paco_>  for your last command
[03:00] <arrick> that doesnt mean a thing in ubuntu, its quirky with video cards sometimes
[03:00] <linux_galore> arrick: he gets a term fine on F1
[03:00] <linux_galore> arrick: sounds like the wrong driver
[03:01] <arrick> yep
[03:01] <rauno> what is best Mp3 player on ubuntu?
[03:01] <dmizer> paco: can you pastebin your lsmod please?
[03:01] <linux_galore> Flippit: did it work in Ubuntu or is this a fresh install
[03:01] <Flippit> linux_galore: nope first time i've put ubuntu onto it
[03:01] <Dkt> How do I run .mpg movies?
[03:01] <PS> hi, chaps.  anyone use mysql much?  is there a good free gui admin tool out there (e.g. one that lets you browse table contents etc?)
[03:01] <linux_galore> Flippit: have you rebooted yet
[03:01] <Flippit> linux_galore: many times
[03:01] <hasan> dkt you need to install Totem-Xine
[03:01] <jvai> run mp3 movies thru totem-xine
[03:01] <linux_galore> Flippit: ok swap back to F1 login
[03:01] <Dkt> Okay
[03:02] <hasan> !tell Dkt Totem-Xine
[03:02] <Flippit> linux_galore: ok done
[03:02] <Draconicus> On this computer, and only this computer, mplayer won't stretch the video when I enlarge the window or go to fullscreen. Why is this? I've tried different video cards and different installations of Ubuntu, but it still doesn't enlarge the video.
[03:02] <onlyzb> why not use bmp?
[03:03] <hastesaver> Draconicus, start with -zoom
[03:03] <JeppeBird`sad> !tell JeppeBird`sad test
[03:03] <Draconicus> hastesaver: Okay... That still doesn't explain why it only has this problem on this computer, but I'll try that.
[03:04] <paco_> dmizer, posted
[03:04] <dmizer> kk
[03:04] <leverbes> hey I just have discovered what is IRC
[03:04] <hastesaver> Draconicus, different default settings maybe. Tell me if it doesn't work
[03:04] <Hobbsee> leverbes internet relay chat?
[03:04] <XVampireX> Internet Relay Chat
[03:04] <XVampireX> lol
[03:04] <leverbes> yes but before it was just a name

[03:04] <ubotu> rumour has it, irc is info on irc at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat, or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InternetRelayChat
[03:04] <jvai>  irc is cool! but i'd neva get in here w/ a windoze box
[03:04] <Flippit> linux_galore: ok i am logged in, at command prompt
[03:05] <leverbes> I connect for first time
[03:05] <Max-O-Matic> hi
[03:05] <pierreb> hi
[03:05] <spo0nman> ~hi
[03:05] <paco_> dmizer, i think the easy ubuntu script thing made all wrong
[03:06] <hastesaver> Draconicus, put the line "zoom = yes" in your ~/.mplayer/config to make it do that by default
[03:06] <leverbes> when I write something everybodu can read it?
[03:06] <Draconicus> hastesaver: Ah. Okay.
[03:06] <dmizer> paco: as far as i can tell, your usb stuff is loaded very strange.
[03:06] <dmizer> paco: i believe that may be the cause of it.
[03:06] <dmizer> paco: what exact script did you use?
[03:06] <leverbes> see you
[03:06] <arrick> guys, I have a pc here that wont install any windows OS(bluescreens at reboot), will boot ubuntu server, wont boot Ubuntu default, and freezes at the "Grub Loading, Please Wait....." with the default install. This is a 500mhz, 374mb Ram pc, ran checkit and it tells me everything is good. Any suggestions?
[03:06] <linux_galore> Flippit: sorry had to shake the snake, ok now type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:07] <paco_> dmizer, EasyUbuntu_2006-05-20
[03:07] <fyrestrtr> arrick: sounds like part of your disk is not working correctly.
[03:07] <dmizer> paco: where did you find it?  at the forums?
[03:07] <fyrestrtr> arrick: do a disk check
[03:07] <arrick> fyrestrtr, done that 3-4 times so far on 9 disks
[03:08] <Flippit> linux_galore: ok i have a blue window
[03:08] <WarOfAttrition> arrick |  try checking that the cable and cards are plugged in right, sometimes that happens
[03:08] <linux_galore> Flippit: just follow the it and fill in the blanks when it asks
[03:08] <kane77> I have a problem... not too terrrible but... In ubuntu the screen is shifted a bit to the left... I believe it has to do something with refresh rate but I'm not sure...
[03:08] <hasan> arrick: format/resintall
[03:08] <hasan> ?
[03:09] <paco_> dmizer, http://wiki.ubuntu-fr.org/easyubuntu and then http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/get.html
[03:09] <Frogzoo> !tell kane77 about fixres
[03:09] <Flippit> linux_galore: do i want to autodetect video hardware or not?
[03:09] <linux_galore> Flippit: yes if you dont know what you have
[03:09] <c|Ph3r> rrgh! this is gettin' me crazy!, no hop with totem!, i have fetched mplayer and now the firefox crashed with any media site (firefox flickers), any idea guys how in Earth to get media smooth with ubuntu dapper?
[03:09] <dmizer> paco: let me take a look at that script.  hold tight.
[03:10] <arrick> hasan, done that for a week now trying to get it goind
[03:10] <linux_galore> Flippit: otherwise no select it manually
[03:10] <Okay> bonjour
[03:10] <arrick> WarOfAttrition, the cords are correct
[03:10] <linux_galore> Flippit: never worry you can run this command 100 times till you get it right heh heh
[03:11] <WarOfAttrition> arrick |  On the inside too? what about the cards?
[03:11] <dergringo> are there any repos where I can get kxdocker 1.0+ ?
[03:11] <arrick> the cards are correct as well, I checked the whole system
[03:11] <paco_> dmizer, it gave an error during execution (it was the nightlysnapshot
[03:11] <linux_galore> dergringo:  www.google.com/linux is your buddy
[03:12] <chx> CPU Temp:    +34C  (low  =   +15C, high =   +45C)   sensor = thermistor            how reliable is this ? I am currently experiencing with a CPU _without_ a fan, so I am pretty anxious about its temperature
[03:12] <WarOfAttrition> arrick |  then something must be fried, if you're lucky it might just be a bad cable, I've gotten those
[03:12] <paco_> dmizer, i believe i will just erase/format/nuke all and start all over... :(
[03:12] <chx> (the temperature, though, looks realistic)
[03:12] <WarOfAttrition> bad IDE cable that is
[03:12] <dmizer> paco: that may be your best bet ... try automatix instead.
[03:12] <arrick> WarOfAttrition, Ive disconnected all but the nic and the d, gonna try it now
[03:12] <kane77> do you know of any GOOD torrent clients?? something with GUI and multiple tasks... (like uTorrent or BitComet)
[03:12] <paco_> dmizer, right now i must go, i will try  can you ginve me the link
[03:12] <paco_> ??
[03:13] <chx> kane77: azureus

[03:13] <FiReStArTeR> Hey, if I install Ubuntu on a hard drive, would I be able to browse files that are on a different (fat32 / ntfs) hard drive
[03:13] <linux_galore> kane77: azureus
[03:13] <Flippit> linux_galore: ok in the command, ubuntu says my card is a "S3 Inc. 86c764/765 Trio 32/64/64V+" - its an old pci card so this is probably right. it wants to knwo the video card bus id, it defaults to "PCI0:10:0" but the box says if you have a single graphics card leave blank! which should i do?
[03:13] <dmizer> paco: just a sec.
[03:13] <linux_galore> kane77: or ktorrent
[03:13] <linux_galore> http://ktorrent.sf.net
[03:13] <dergringo> linux_galore: I already looked at google but I found nothing that helped me :/
[03:13] <kane77> thanx i'll try one of those..
[03:14] <FiReStArTeR> if I install Ubuntu on a hard drive, would I be able to browse files that are on a different (fat32 / ntfs) hard drive
[03:14] <dmizer> paco: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80295
[03:14] <linux_galore> Flippit: leave it blank then
[03:14] <kane77> linux_galore, does it matter that ktorrent is for KDE??
[03:14] <c|Ph3r> FiReStArTeR, YES, u can
[03:14] <linux_galore> dergringo: I compiled kxdocker, so Im of no use lol
[03:14] <paco_> dmizer, karma++ fro you :)
[03:14] <dmizer> thanks.
[03:14] <dmizer> lol
[03:14] <dmizer> gl
[03:15] <linux_galore> kane77: yes and no, you need kde libs installed
[03:15] <paco_> Bye all
[03:15] <linux_galore> kane77: use azureus
[03:15] <kane77> linux_galore, that's exactly what i was looking for... looks great...
[03:15] <linux_galore> kane77: its what i use
[03:15] <XVampireX> ktorrent sucks
[03:15] <fyrestrtr> anyone in here use shorewall? How do I open access to port 25, but only for particular IP addresses
[03:15] <XVampireX> No DHT
[03:16] <shoofle> When I installed ubuntu, I had a 40 gb hard drive.  Most of my downloads have been updates, and I'm down to less than 30 gb.  Is something going wrong?  should updates really take up a quarter of my drive space?
[03:16] <slackern> fyrestrtr: i have shorewall running on my router
[03:16] <linux_galore> XVampireX: in cvs
[03:16] <Hobbsee> shoofle: do a sudo aptitude clean
[03:16] <slackern> fyrestrtr: let me check some
[03:16] <Jason-X> Azureus is a bit of a bloater. Bittornado works best for me
[03:16] <XVampireX> linux_galore: Still, not as many features as azureus
[03:16] <linux_galore> XVampireX: then again in KDE4 kget (default download manager) does torrents
[03:16] <XVampireX> and azureus has plugins
[03:16] <kane77> XVampireX, I don't need DHT as I download from private trackers... where DHT or peer exchange is forbidden...
[03:16] <fyrestrtr> slackern: how do I open access to port 25 (outbound) but only to specified external IP addresses, not the entire internet.
[03:16] <c|Ph3r> XVampireX add to sucks list next to ktorrent the mighty TOTEM
[03:17] <linux_galore> fyrestrtr: install firestarter  sudo apt-get install firestarter    it allows you to easily edit your firewall setup
[03:18] <WarOfAttrition> I dont think he likes firestarter if he's using shorewall
[03:18] <linux_galore> aaah he has shorewall
[03:18] <linux_galore> ha ha, learn to use vim
[03:19] <XVampireX> linux_galore: Did you notice a little bit of irony?
[03:19] <WarOfAttrition> firestarter is buggy sometimes, but oh well. I think it's only cosmetic bugs
[03:19] <linux_galore> XVampireX: me notice irony, never
[03:19] <XVampireX> fyrestrtr sounds just like firestarter, the package you told him/her to install
[03:19] <shoofle> also, software updates is always flashing at me in the window selection toolbar.
[03:19] <pandasan71> Hello to all
[03:19] <slackern> fyrestrtr: you want to allow connections originating from firewall out to hosts on port 25, or is it special hosts to access the firewalls port 25?
[03:19] <fyrestrtr> nevermind, figured it out.
[03:20] <fyrestrtr> and I don't want to install firestarter because this computer does not have X
[03:20] <slackern> fyrestrtr: ahh i got a little confused there for a minute :)
[03:20] <pandasan71> People, what is better ubuntu or kubuntu?
[03:20] <pandasan71> I try to flee of Win Xp
[03:20] <saquib> >> What package can I use to write PDF files or print to PDF files in Ubuntu 5.10 (breezy badger) ??
[03:20] <fyrestrtr> depends what you like, KDE or gnome.
[03:20] <XVampireX> pandasan71: Kubuntu for you
[03:20] <fyrestrtr> saquib: openoffice
[03:20] <linux_galore> pandasan71: kubuntu if your a hard core windows user
[03:21] <fyrestrtr> saquib: its installed by default, just save as -> pdf
[03:21] <XVampireX> Unless you want a different Enviorment that doesn't look like windows, then ubuntu
[03:21] <pandasan71> Thanks, people
[03:21] <saquib> fyrestrtr: openoffice can make PDF files ????
[03:21] <c|Ph3r> pandasan71, ummm based on Linus Trovalds opinion ?
[03:21] <hastesaver> pandasan71, you can do everything you want on both. They just look different. You can have both, so try both :)
[03:21] <XVampireX> Or you could be neutral and try xubuntu
[03:21] <linux_galore> or xubuntu if you want to run ubuntu on your wall clock
[03:21] <pavlix> tell me, what do you think is more open in development... ubuntu or debian?
[03:21] <pandasan71> Do you know some equivalent for Dreamweaver and Fireworks? And a good ftp client?
[03:21] <XVampireX> Yeah, linux torvalds prefers kubuntu
[03:21] <XVampireX> I.E: KDE
[03:22] <kane77> i heard aboud BSOD (blue screen of death) emulator... do you know where I can find it??
[03:22] <c|Ph3r> pandasan71, Bluefish, gFTP
[03:22] <linux_galore> but I prefere to use KDE with normal users
[03:22] <XVampireX> e17 is for those who want to customize their desktop to the max
[03:22] <pandasan71> Now I am in Ubuntu, I like how moves. What benefit has more KDE?
[03:22] <pandasan71> I am spiined.
[03:22] <XVampireX> KDE has cooler apps
[03:23] <hastesaver> pandasan71, nothing much, really. If you're happy, that's it
[03:23] <XVampireX> I.E: amaroK
[03:23] <saquib> >>> openoffice can make PDF files ???? how ?
[03:23] <pandasan71> Ok
[03:23] <c|Ph3r> e17, for who wants to waste some resource watching eyecandy stuff :)
[03:23] <linux_galore> pandasan71: amarok and konqueror  two best apps around
[03:23] <hastesaver> pandasan71, install the package kubuntu-desktop , you'll get kubuntu and you can choose Gnome or KDE at login
[03:23] <XVampireX> DON'T DO IT!
[03:23] <linux_galore> I would run gnome if they had a decent file manager
[03:23] <XVampireX> There are big chances it will ruin your gnome desktop
[03:23] <pavlix> tell me, please.... what's the diffrence between ubuntu and debian development
[03:24] <XVampireX> pavlix: Alot
[03:24] <odin> does anybody know why my volume for my movie programs is always so much lower than any other program, even with its volume settings turned all the way up?
[03:24] <hastesaver> XVampireX, huh? How ?
[03:24] <linux_galore> XVampireX: Ive done it, zero problems, why would it muck up your gnome desktop
[03:24] <pandasan71> In fact I have Ubuntu and I installed kubuntu-desktop with ap-get. Moves fine. :)
[03:24] <XVampireX> hastesaver: It did for me.
[03:24] <Flippit> linux_galore: finished config and rebooted - but the problem remains!!! anything else i can try?
[03:24] <hastesaver> XVampireX, it isn't supposed to happen. What happened?
[03:24] <XVampireX> I don't know, I couldn't load up the gnome desktop enviorment afterwards
[03:24] <linux_galore> Flippit: manually select the driver
[03:25] <shinobi2> how different is kbuntun from ubuntu beside kde and gnome
[03:25] <XVampireX> Especially the menu bars
[03:25] <saquib> HELLO! >> What package can I use to write PDF files or print to PDF files in Ubuntu 5.10 (breezy badger)
[03:25] <linux_galore> Flippit: run the same command but dont auto
[03:25] <pavlix> XVampireX: it seems at least the ubuntu irc people are less talkative then debians :-)
[03:25] <pavlix> XVampireX: it was a joke...
[03:25] <XVampireX> shinobi: different apps for the different DE's
[03:26] <pavlix> but at least... for you it works :-)
[03:26] <linux_galore> saquib: openoffice will save to pdf and if you in kde you can print to a pdf any document you have open even a web page
[03:26] <hastesaver> !tell pavlix about debian
[03:26] <odin> what're the main differences b/t gnome, kde. and xfce?
[03:26] <pandasan71> For pdf, OpenOffice and export as pdf
[03:26] <XVampireX> The look and feel
[03:26] <odin> wait, scratch xfce
[03:26] <XVampireX> and applications
[03:26] <pandasan71> Thanks, people
[03:26] <shoofle> never heard of xfce...
[03:26] <linux_galore> odin: xfce is a minimal desktop for systems with a small ram footprint
[03:26] <pavlix> hastesaver: so... i should expect similar here :-)
[03:26] <XVampireX> And some say memory requirements
[03:26] <linux_galore> I used xfce for 4 years lol
[03:26] <XVampireX> There are other ones
[03:27] <hastesaver> pavlix, similar to what? Ubuntu is very similar to Debian, if that's what you're asking
[03:27] <WarOfAttrition> xfce is medium minimal. if you want really minimal, try fluxbox
[03:27] <hastesaver> or ratpoison
[03:27] <linux_galore> XVampireX: kde and gnome are full blown desktops, there are alternates like xfce if you have not allot of ram ie 64mb
[03:27] <pavlix> hastesaver: no.. that's not what i'm asking, that's what i already know..
[03:27] <fyrestrtr> if you want *really* minimal, try xdm.
[03:27] <XVampireX> I know
[03:27] <linux_galore> yeah ratpoison will run on 8mb of ram
[03:27] <XVampireX> linux_galore: you don't have to tell me that :P
[03:28] <XVampireX> There's xubuntu which is ubuntu on xfce
[03:28] <WarOfAttrition> I think fluxbox is smaller as far as guis go
[03:28] <linux_galore> XVampireX: aaah sometimes I use a name as an anchor for a commant
[03:28] <linux_galore> comment*
[03:28] <XVampireX> :P
[03:29] <linux_galore> Ive got a $30 HP NC diskless computer, 128mb of ram and I have xfce running on it
[03:29] <WarOfAttrition> I dont recommend xubuntu, it's better to get ubuntu or kubuntu and install xfce from scratch
[03:30] <linux_galore> works great
[03:30] <hastesaver> WarOfAttrition, that's the only way of doing it :)
[03:30] <saquib> guys, >> What package can I use to write PDF files or print to PDF files in Ubuntu 5.10 (breezy badger)?
[03:31] <linux_galore> saquib: openoffice or just print to a pdf
[03:31] <hastesaver> saquib, you can also learn LaTeX, but I'm not sure if it will be worth the effort for you ;)
[03:31] <linux_galore> saquib: the normal gnome dialogue has a print to pdf option in the drop down
[03:32] <kent> How come the swedish LoCo is not on http://www.ubuntu.com/support/supportoptions/local?   :( We have a popular channel on #ubuntu-se, we have a webserver www.ubuntu-se.org (from canonical?)  so it seems strange that we are not on the LoCo-list.  (?)
[03:33] <saquib> aaah yess, am i Dumb? "export as pdf" thing!! DUH
[03:34] <ericz> what's the big difference between linux-686 and linux-386... and the linux-restricted-modules, and linux-image...etc ?
[03:35] <marsswell> Which is the command to see linux partitions?
[03:35] <marsswell> I mean hard disk partitions
[03:35] <linux_galore> saquib: yeah part of the gnome switch to cairo was a nice pft export backend
[03:35] <linux_galore> pdf*
[03:36] <saquib> srry for bothering.. i was looking for it in the printer list.. something like pdf printer ....
[03:36] <rab> is there anyway to completely remove gnome andall of its applications
[03:36] <linux_galore> squiggly: so basically if you can print ti you can export it to a pdf
[03:36] <hastesaver> marsswell, I don't know (wait for others to answer), but try cat /proc/partitions , cat /etc/fstab , cat /etc/mtab (they all do different things)
[03:38] <saquib> *Query: If I install "xfce4" should i be able to select it from the login/session screen???
[03:38] <linux_galore> squiggly: if you have samba setup you can use the same thing to allow windows machines to convert files to pdf's via the Linux box
[03:38] <linux_galore> saquib: yes
[03:39] <Dr_Willis> saquib,  should be able to.
[03:39] <rab> is there anyway to completely remove gnome andall of its applications
[03:39] <Dr_Willis> saquib,  you may need to install the 'xubuntu-desktop'
[03:39] <octan> if the file /lib/modules/2.6.X/modules.dep does not exist.. how do i make it? depmod -a ?
[03:39] <arrick> WarOfAttrition, I have a westerndigital HD, how do I run a low format on it?
[03:39] <Dr_Willis> rab,  not easialy
[03:39] <saquib> thanks!
[03:39] <rab> Dr_willis, whats a pretty low resource DE
[03:40] <linux_galore> rab best to leave gnome there allot of stuff needs gnome to work
[03:40] <ciaron> XVampireX: re earlier, how is ubuntu's fat32 support?
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  any time ive heard of someone needing to do a 'true' low level format... they basicially needed a new hd. :P or a normal format worked fine
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> rab,  dozens of them out there. 'xfxe' is nice. but ive ran gnome on a pent100 laptop with 64mb ram. :P
[03:40] <XVampireX> ciaron: read and write
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> xfce i mean. aka - "xubuntu-desktop"
[03:41] <apollo2011> If I have a linux setup with my home dir on a separate partition, and I have a problem with the system, how messy is it to reinstall and keep my config in my home dir?
[03:41] <linux_galore> Dr_Willis: eeew, i ran gnome 2.10 on a P1 133 64mb ram. it was slow as snot
[03:41] <XVampireX> ciaron: But you still must mount the fat32
[03:41] <Dr_Willis> linux_galore,  i never said it was speedy.. but it worked enough for web surfing. :P and GAIM
[03:41] <rab> Dr_Willis, yea ijust installed that
[03:41] <ciaron> XVampireX: understood, is it 100% safe?
[03:41] <orbin> apollo2011: not messy at all.  just specify that you want the partition mounted as /home and you'll have all your configs ready when you login
[03:41] <linux_galore> Dr_Willis: why bother install xfce and the thing flies
[03:41] <XVampireX> Yes
[03:42] <Kater`> Can somebody give me a hand getting my wlan working? I just installed ubuntu on a dell d800, the wlan controller is bcm4306 but it's not working
[03:42] <semboy> someone here how use WINE ?
[03:42] <XVampireX> ciaron: yes, I mean
[03:42] <Dr_Willis> linux_galore,   it did just fine for my needs with gnome.
[03:42] <Dr_Willis> !wine
[03:42] <ciaron> XVampireX: cool, cheers for the info
[03:42] <Dr_Willis> !tell semboy  about wine
[03:42] <XVampireX> Okey
[03:42] <apollo2011> orbin: but there aren't any configs stored on the / that will get wiped out?
[03:42] <arrick> Dr_Willis, you wanna come get this thing up and going? Ive tried 9 hds, and no os will install then boot except "ubuntu server" default ubuntu hangs at "loading grub please wait...." and windows os from 98 to winserv03 all get to the part "setup is starting windows now" and bluescreens, any suggestions?
[03:42] <semboy> An error occurred loading "c:\program files\common files\microsoft shaed\mslinfo\ieinfo5.ocx" The file may nothave been installed or it has been corrupted
[03:42] <apollo2011> orbin: that I would want to keep
[03:42] <XVampireX> Dr_Willis: semboy is a troll
[03:42] <semboy> err:exec:SHELL_ExecuteW cannot set directory L"c:\\windows\\system32\\shell32.dl
[03:42] <Dr_Willis> arrai,  sounds like.. hmm.. hardware issue to me.
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> oops arrick  i mean.
[03:43] <orbin> apollo2011: some i guess eg.g. grub config, sources list, xorg conf file etc.
[03:43] <WarOfAttrition> arrick |  try testing the HDD on another PC if possible
[03:43] <XVampireX> I explained him how to run WINE but he didn't listen
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> It pays to have a bunch of spare pcs
[03:43] <arrick> I did, it ran fine, loaded in 20 minutes
[03:43] <arrick> any os
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> XVampireX,  :P you are a kind sole.
[03:43] <linux_galore> Kater`: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?postid=1756590
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  so the hd worked good in Pc #2 - but not in PC #1 eh?
[03:44] <arrick> yep
[03:44] <WarOfAttrition> arrick |  then it's not the disk why do you want to low format
[03:44] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  that tells me - its not a HD issue.
[03:44] <JeppeBird> Hi again, I installed Ubuntu(5.10) And It works seamless except it doesnt recognize my wireless network card (Linksys WMP54G). Can someone tell me how to get the drivers for linux. I can't use the install cd because ubuntu doesnt work with .exe files
[03:44] <arrick> it did me to, but I benchmarked with scisoft sandra and checkit and everything checks out fine with them
[03:45] <WarOfAttrition> arrick |  if you have spare IDE cables and such, try switching those and see how it goes. if nothing changes it might be memory or other type of chip damage
[03:45] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  could be some odd overheating issue.. or wiggling.. or any of a 1000 other hw problems with the mb.
[03:45] <kent> Seveas: there?
[03:45] <Dr_Willis> its amazing how many things are on a Motherboard that could go bad.
[03:46] <Okay> intuix tnt usb dongle works with ubuntu?
[03:46] <WarOfAttrition> and usually due to heat, followed by power surges
[03:46] <linux_galore> Okay: should do
[03:46] <taw> hello ^_^
[03:47] <linux_galore> Okay: if it just emulates a standard mass storage device like most dongles it should just work
[03:47] <taw> are there some beta install cds of the new ubuntu ? ^_^
[03:47] <linux_galore> taw: yes flight 7 is out
[03:48] <arrick> Dr_Willis, its running right about 113 f for proc, and 80 for system temps,
[03:48] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  so its running  good now? just crashes every so often?
[03:49] <arrick> Dr_Willis, nothing will boot but the ubuntu server os
[03:49] <linux_galore> taw: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperRC
[03:49] <arrick> it wont load the os completely
[03:49] <WarOfAttrition> then it could also be your video card
[03:49] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  odd..  makes me wonder if its a cdrom drive issue.
[03:49] <ciaron> when is the RC due for release anyway?
[03:49] <Stormx2> Hey is it possible to run mIRC scripts/servers on linux?
[03:50] <arrick> Dr_Willis, i'll try another (will be the fourth know good) and see what happens
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  considering the cheap price of motherboards.. :P gets to a point where ya got to ask which is worth more.. my time or my $$ :P
[03:51] <arrick> Dr_Willis, with ubuntu is installs, throws out the cd, then gets to" GRUB loading, please wait..." and hangs there
[03:51] <premier69> i would like to know what the recommended system requirements are for ubuntu install version.
[03:51] <HunterZ> hi
[03:51] <arrick> Dr_Willis, free box
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  :P makes ya wonder why now.. eh. :P
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  the most valueable part of the box is the case eh?
[03:51] <arrick> yeah
[03:52] <WarOfAttrition> I got a free box once, the memory was fried
[03:52] <taw> linux_galore: is there any important reason to wait for the official release instead of just installing beta and upgrading the changed packages in a few days (it's a personal desktop machine)
[03:53] <linux_galore> Stormx2: Im on gaim and i can access the whole Linux command line system and any scripts so why would I want mirc
[03:53] <arrick> I put all my own known good from a working box into it, HD, cdrom, memory, and such
[03:53] <Stormx2> linux_galore: Because i have an entire server coded in mirc
[03:53] <WarOfAttrition> but I replaced it and got a really cheap blue-screen-free PC for free
[03:53] <linux_galore> taw: you can update easily, anything from now on will be a update or a patch
[03:54] <taw> linux_galore: no major known problems left ?
[03:54] <linux_galore> Stormx2: Linux has 101 IRC servers already
[03:54] <linux_galore> taw: no minor polish
[03:54] <Stormx2> linux_galore: Ah ha? Its not quite irc, its a modified protocol
[03:54] <Stormx2> "ROFFLE"
[03:55] <linux_galore> Stormx2: mirc is windows specific
[03:55] <Stormx2> linux_galore: Don't worry I've found an app which runs on linux and can parse the scripts
[03:56] <Stormx2> linux_galore: It isn't about the mIRC client, its about the language
[03:56] <linux_galore> Stormx2: IRC on Linux is soooo done to death its not funny, if it can be dome 10 people have already done it on Linux and have the code out there
[03:56] <apollo2011> orbin: ok thxx I shouldn't have too much of a problem getting it back up after the install.
[03:56] <linux_galore> done*
[03:56] <arrick> oh yeah Dr_Willis WarOfAttrition you gotta havea boot partitions named boot dont you?
[03:57] <Stormx2> linux_galore: Its for the MSN Chat ActiveX. Not many linux users would want to code for a propreitry frontend that only works on internet explorer and firefox
[03:58] <Stormx2> And on windows frontends or wine.
[03:58] <linux_galore> Stormx2: yeah and msn has alot of options on Linux
[03:58] <saquib> >> How do i install Firefox 1.5 in Ubuntu 5.10 (x86-64) ???
[03:58] <Stormx2> MSN Chats
[03:58] <Stormx2> its different.
[03:59] <Stormx2> Not MSN Messenger.
[03:59] <premier69> i would like to know what the recommended system requirements are for ubuntu install version.
[03:59] <arrick> !ff1.5
[03:59] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[03:59] <linux_galore> Stormx2: Im on msn/google/yahoo/irc/icq  all at the same time with a single program with a ton of plugins
[03:59] <arrick> saquib, ^^
[03:59] <Stormx2> linux_galore: NOT MSN MESSENGER
[03:59] <linux_galore> nope
[03:59] <linux_galore> gaim
[04:00] <Stormx2> No!
[04:00] <Stormx2> Listen vary carefully
[04:00] <Stormx2> I'm not talking about MSN Messenger
[04:00] <linux_galore> if you on msn you can messaage me now if you want
[04:00] <Stormx2> Or anything which connects to the MSN Messenger Network
[04:00] <Stormx2> Not GAIM
[04:00] <Stormx2> Not Kopete
[04:00] <Stormx2> Not Trillian
[04:00] <Stormx2> I'm talking about the defunct MSN Chats, which were browser based.
[04:01] <linux_galore> Stormx2: never used it
[04:02] <Stormx2> linux_galore: Well then please don't pretend you know what I'm talking about.
[04:02] <linux_galore> Stormx2: your talking about windows specific stuff in a OO room, like we care
[04:03] <Cyphir> hi can someone help me with a problem?
[04:03] <soundray> premier69: this is hard to answer, other than with the standard "it depends"
[04:03] <Stormx2> linux_galore: I'm talking about the server backend
[04:03] <Stormx2> linux_galore: Which we are coding.
[04:03] <soundray> premier69: what kind of machine do you have, and what do you want to to with it?
[04:04] <luisito> hello
[04:04] <Stormx2> linux_galore: yes its for windows and if I had my way, windows wouldn't exist, but the fact is we've been designing a server for the ActiveX control for quite a while now. We don't want to buy and expensive windows server, we want to port the code to linux. Linux server, windows clients.
[04:04] <feydin> hey there, will future versions of ubuntu support dmraid?
[04:04] <Flippit_> linux_galore: hi, i am back, on another machine now. no matter how many times i run that config program, it still doesn't work!!!
[04:04] <Cyphir> anyone know how i can make a window transparent every session with a composite manager?
[04:05] <luisito> if I have an Athlon XP 2000+ what's my architecture, 386, 586, 686?
[04:05] <premier69> soundray: i was thinking of using it as a standard desktop OS instead of xp for surfing, checking mail and working in some sort of office equivelent
[04:05] <linux_galore> Stormx2: activeX should be banned to the depths of hell
[04:05] <jpanegasser> can someone please head me in a direction on compiling fromsource a driver for a wireless card,i have the source allready
[04:05] <crazy_penguin> luisito: k8 if i'm not mistaking
[04:05] <Stormx2> linux_galore: So should you.
[04:05] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, ill try to hrlp
[04:05] <soundray> luisito: neither, it's k7
[04:05] <linux_galore> Stormx2: its a script kiddie heap of crap
[04:05] <soundray> crazy_penguin: no, k7 (XP)
[04:06] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, what is the source made from?
[04:06] <crazy_penguin> soundray: yes, sorry :)
[04:06] <jerry_> and xp2800 for 64?k8 or k7?
[04:06] <luisito> so, my uname -r should say k7 then?
[04:06] <soundray> premier69: any machine that runs Windows XP satisfactorily will work with Ubuntu. You should have 256MB RAM or more for it to work okay.
[04:06] <Stormx2> linux_galore: Well we're in the process of making a java client anyway, but it matters not. We're talking about a server here, not an ActiveX control.
[04:06] <linux_galore> Stormx2: a large chunk of the security problem derive from activeX
[04:06] <soundray> jerry_: all Athlon XP are 32bit / k7
[04:06] <Stormx2> You think I don't know that?
[04:07] <linux_galore> Stormx2: its crap, total heap of brown smelly stuff
[04:07] <jerry_> oh,i know ,tks
[04:07] <jpanegasser> cyphir i downloaded it from chipmakers website
[04:07] <premier69> soundray it doesnt really run xp very well and the previous windows are a bit too old thats why i was thinking of a GUI linux distro like ubuntu or xandros
[04:07] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, what format is it in i ment
[04:07] <jpanegasser> RT25USB-SRC-V2.0.7.0.tar.gz
[04:07] <Cyphir> 
[04:07] <soundray> luisito: not necessarily, but you'd be making the best use of your hardware if it did.
[04:08] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, easy just double click on it and select the extarct option
[04:08] <jpanegasser> cyphir,its on my desktop now
[04:08] <luisito> ok, thanks to all
[04:08] <soundray> premier69: the Gnome desktop does require a lot of resources, but you have a choice of less expensive desktop environments.
[04:08] <linux_galore> Stormx2: activeX not active control is really bad, you have to be nuts to use it and sit there with a straight face and want to use it via the net
[04:09] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, now compt the contents to your directory
[04:09] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, that u want the driver in
[04:09] <premier69> soundray, how does gnome compare to kde?
[04:09] <crazy_penguin> goof afternoon all! :)
[04:09] <Cyphir> hi!
[04:09] <jpanegasser> cyphir, what directory do i want it in
[04:09] <Kr0ntab> sup crazy_penguin
[04:09] <Flippit_> linux_galore: tried all sorts of combinations in the xorg config thing, but no luck. anything else i can do?
[04:10] <soundray> premier69: this is flamewar material. You have to check it out for yourself to see what you prefer.
[04:10] <crazy_penguin> good afternoon all! :)
[04:10] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, umm /home/networkdriver?
[04:10] <linux_galore> Flippit do a google for you video card and xorg
[04:10] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, is there an script you can execut or something in the package?
[04:10] <linux_galore> Flippit www.google.com/linux
[04:10] <Kater`> thankx linux_galore, the wlan works now (kinda)
[04:11] <jpanegasser> cyphir, let me look
[04:11] <soundray> premier69: FWIW, I like kde because it lets me tweak everything, but I use gnome because I end up spending more time working and less time tweaking ;)
[04:11] <linux_galore> Kater`: ndiswrapper is a hit and miss thing, should call it  sortworkswrapper
[04:11] <jpanegasser> cyphir, config shell script?
[04:11] <premier69> soundray thanks for your input
[04:11] <Cyphir> japnegasser, yea thats it now give me the exact name of the file
[04:12] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, yea thats it now give me the exact name of the file
[04:12] <jpanegasser> cyphir, "config"
[04:12] <jpanegasser> cyphir, "configure"
[04:12] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, so did u create a folder in home called networkdrivers and put the drivers in there?
[04:12] <Kater`> linux_galore i think the ndiswrapper stuff went just fine, it's just that i'm not really getting an ip adress. it did detect my SSID so ...
[04:13] <jpanegasser> \home\network\
[04:13] <jpanegasser> cyphir, \home\network\
[04:13] <Cyphir> jpanegesser, k thats alright
[04:13] <linux_galore> anyway bed time
[04:13] <Cyphir> jpanegesser, now do this
[04:13] <Cyphir> jpanegesser, cd ~/network and afterwards ./config
[04:13] <Cyphir> jpangasser, in the termainl
[04:14] <jpanegasser> cyphir, sudo?
[04:14] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, no need
[04:14] <aron> hallo
[04:14] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, if it is giving u permision problems type chmod +x config
[04:16] <Cyphir> jpanegasser. u there?
[04:16] <jpanegasser> cyphir, no such file
[04:17] <IceTox> do you know about any linux bittorent program that actually works.. Seems to me that the original "KTorrent" and "Bitorrent" does not work with all downloads.. Any clue?
[04:17] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, did u paste the contents of the tar files into /home/network
[04:17] <jpanegasser> yes
[04:17] <icheyne> IceTox, I'm using utorrent with wine
[04:17] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, type this instead actually cd /home/network
[04:17] <IceTox> nice icheyne.. Do you happened to have a link for that?
[04:18] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, then tpye ./config
[04:18] <icheyne> think it's utorrent.com or something like that
[04:18] <IceTox> found it icheyne.. thank you :-)
[04:18] <icheyne> :)
[04:19] <jpanegasser> cyphir, now its sayingno file, wtf
[04:19] <jpanegasser> cyphir, bash: cd: /home/network/: No such file or directory
[04:20] <arrick> hey Dr_Willis I just reloaded ubuntu server and I am getting "error 15" right after the line that says "GRUB loading, please wait...."
[04:20] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, make sure is network folder in /home/jpanegasser/network or /home/network?
[04:21] <arrick> anyone I just reloaded ubuntu server and I am getting "error 15" right after the line that says "GRUB loading, please wait...." what does this mean?
[04:21] <soundray> arrick: sounds like it isn't finding your menu.lst file.
[04:21] <Cyphir> jpanegasser, basically cd to the directory containing the drivers and execute config by using ./config
[04:22] <kangdeahan> hello
[04:22] <arrick> soundray where would it be located at on the disc?
[04:22] <jpanegasser> cyphir, thats it?
[04:22] <Jimmey__> I'm running the uptime desklet, and Apache. The desklet show's two users online - how can I check the IP of this user?
[04:22] <soundray> arrick: in your ubuntu root, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:22] <Dkt> how do a move a file from a to b in terminal?
[04:22] <Dkt> or a folder
[04:22] <soundray> Dkt: with mv -- read this:
[04:22] <soundray> !tell Dkt about cli
[04:22] <Dkt> Thanks
[04:23] <arrick> soundray, so could this mean the CDROM is bad, or what?
[04:23] <premier69> how do i minimize to the list as i can do in mac os and xandros?
[04:23] <soundray> arrick: I don't know the story -- are you booting from CD, or is this a freshly installed system?
[04:24] <Flippit_> does anyone know what to set in xorg for ubuntu to detect a 9-pin serial mouse?
[04:24] <arrick> soundray, its a system that up until now no matter what HD i put in, has hung right after install
[04:24] <soundray> premier69: in the title bar, click the third button from the right
[04:24] <arrick> (or blue screened ) soundray
[04:25] <soundray> arrick: so it's a fresh ubuntu install to HD now?
[04:25] <arrick> yes
[04:25] <arrick> soundray, yes
[04:26] <whizz-> does anybody have experience with the sudoers-file?
[04:26] <soundray> arrick: and it fails with different systems and different disks... Is it possible that the IDE subsystem on the mainboard is faulty?
[04:26] <kangdeahan> excuseme i want going  hanirc.   who know hanirc?
[04:27] <soundray> !tell whizz- about ask
[04:27] <idefix> when I try to login at GAIM with my hotmail address it stops at receiving buddy list and then I lose internet, without the router this doesn't happen, what could be the case?
[04:27] <arrick> soundray, how would I test this?
[04:28] <soundray> arrick: insert a PCI IDE controller and connect your HD there. Or try installing to a USB storage device (tricky)
[04:28] <premier69> i mean: minimize to the title bar, how do I do that?
[04:29] <icheyne> premier69, do you mean shading it?
[04:29] <fm_> hi
[04:29] <soundray> premier69: System-Preferences-Window, select Titlebar Action Roll up
[04:29] <idefix> can someone help me with GAIM?
[04:29] <fm_> Is there a way to import a style defined in an openoffice document to another openoffice document?
[04:29] <premier69> i am not sure: minimize it, but not to the tray.
[04:30] <icheyne> premier69, I think Soundray's got the solution
[04:30] <icheyne> premier69, it's normally called shading
[04:30] <icheyne> premier69, not sure why
[04:30] <soundray> No, icheyne, it's called Roll-up ;)
[04:31] <icheyne> soundray, only in Gnomeland?
[04:31] <premier69> soundray, how does one shade a window in ubuntu, like xandros?
[04:31] <premier69> oh, ubuntu uses kde?
[04:31] <soundray> premier69: have you tried my suggestion?
[04:31] <whizz-> i have a computer with three users; the two other users besides me should not be able to sudo with their own password, but when i am logged in to their accounts i should be able to sudo; how do i set up /etc/sudoers to do this?
[04:31] <soundray> premier69: no, kubuntu uses kde
[04:31] <vdepizzol> xgl d em xfce?
[04:32] <premier69> sorry i must have missed your suggestion
[04:32] <vdepizzol> xgl works in Xubuntu?
[04:32] <soundray> whizz-: you don't. If you are logged in as user2, and you don't want to log out, do a 'su - whizz' followed by 'sudo' to do admin tasks.
[04:33] <soundray> premier69: System-Preferences-Window, select Titlebar Action Roll up
[04:33] <soundray> vdepizzol: yes. Join #ubuntu-xgl
[04:33] <idefix> what does the little ubuntu sign next to the green square in the synaptic package list mean?
[04:33] <whizz-> but how do i prevent the other users from sudoing?
[04:34] <vdepizzol> thanks, soundtray
[04:34] <soundray> whizz-: remove them from the admin group
[04:34] <arrick> idefix, it means that package is loaded already
[04:34] <Dkt> I have tried to move a folder with: " mv "/home/frantic/CT_RaidAssist/" "~/.wine/drive_c/WoW/Interface/" . But it doesnt work. Is something wrong in my paths or? Because it cant find "CT_RaidAssist".
[04:34] <premier69> thanks, it really did the job :D
[04:35] <soundray> Dkt: do a 'ls -d ~/.wine/drive_c/WoW/Interface/CT_RaidAssist' -- does it find it?
[04:36] <soundray> arrick: you could also try the second IDE channel -- maybe only one of them is faulty. Also, check the cable.
[04:36] <idefix__> arrick, I thought the green square meant that
[04:37] <Dkt> soundray, Nope, doesnt find it
[04:37] <bigmarCus> when I installed Ubuntu it never prompted me for a root password, now I cant su to root
[04:37] <soundray> arrick: it's possible for this kind of trouble to stem from a non-ATA133 compliant cable.
[04:37] <idefix__> can somebody help me please with GAIM?
[04:38] <soundray> !tell bigmarCus about root
[04:38] <arrick> soundray, its not a 133 cabe, trying the pci to ide controller now
[04:38] <arrick> idefix__, your right sorry was confused
[04:39] <Dkt> soundray, but I do fint "/WoW/Interface"
[04:39] <premier69> soundray can i bother you with a rather lengthy question about network settings?
[04:39] <idefix__> arrick when I log in with GAIM and it downloads the buddy list my internet jams
[04:39] <soundray> premier69: ask the channel. If someone here knows, they will try to answer.
[04:39] <bigmarCus> Thank you soundray, sorry for the dumb question.
[04:39] <soundray> !ask
[04:39] <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.
[04:40] <soundray> bigmarCus: no problem
[04:40] <premier69> soundray sure will
[04:41] <esox> Hi
[04:41] <Abou> How can I add /opt/SUNWappserver/jdk/bin to the PATH?
[04:41] <Abou> I'm using bash
[04:42] <soundray> Abou: 'export PATH=/opt/SUNWappserver/jdk/bin:$PATH' sets the path for the current shell session.
[04:42] <soundray> Abou: add the setting to $HOME/.bashrc to make it permanent.
[04:42] <Abou> soundray cheers
[04:43] <premier69> How do i connect to the internet in ubuntu through a gateway? my dsl modem is connected to an XP machine with internet connect sharing enabled to an swich and access point, the ubuntu pc is connect through cat5 to the switch, i have dhcp enabled on my win machine and works excellent with all other pc's in the network but ubuntu and xandros can't find any dhcp server to connect to, how do i fix this? manual settings doesn't seem 
[04:43] <Dkt> I have tried to move a folder with: " mv "/home/frantic/CT_RaidAssist/" "~/.wine/drive_c/WoW/Interface/" . But it doesnt work. Is something wrong in my paths or? Because it cant find "CT_RaidAssist" folder it says. I got the folder in my home-map.
[04:44] <soundray> Dkt: does /home/frantic/CT_RaidAssist/ still exist?
[04:44] <Dkt> soundray, Yes
[04:45] <soundray> Dkt: are you logged in as user frantic?
[04:46] <Dkt> soundray, Yes
[04:46] <esox> I locked myself out of a 5.10 box. I did a `setfacl -dRm u:backuppc:rx /etc' and a `setfacl -Rm u:backuppc:rx /etc'. Now if I try to do a `sudo -s' I always get `sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0450, should be 0440. Has anyone an idea how to recover (I installed lvm)?
[04:46] <njan> esox, reboot in recovery mode, 'chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers'
[04:47] <soundray> premier69: it sounds like you need to configure WinXP to accept DHCP requests from your ubuntu/xandros machines.
[04:47] <juliangallego86> help!!!!! i've installed the edubuntu and i don't know how iniciate the default ubuntu
[04:47] <njan> soundray, with ICS there's no such configuration. You couldn't configure ICS to not allow linux machines to talk to the DHCP server if you tried..
[04:47] <esox> How do I boot in recovery mode?
[04:48] <njan> esox, you have an option at the startup screen
[04:48] <njan> just before the brown bootscreen appears
[04:48] <wizzlefish> the sound still isn't working...I tried the SoundProblemsHoary fix, the Happy ALSA, OSS, ESD fix, the DebuggingSoundProblems fix, and the Ubuntu No Sound Troubles fix! nothing is working
[04:48] <esox> thanks, I'll try that. Bye!
[04:48] <njan> you have a black and white grub menu, you may have to hit a key to see it
[04:48] <njan> np
[04:48] <wizzlefish> any more ideas/
[04:48] <soundray> Dkt: try with a slightly modified command: 'mv /home/frantic/CT_RaidAssist ~/.wine/drive_c/WoW/Interface/' (no quotes, trailing slash omitted)
[04:48] <wizzlefish> *?
[04:49] <Dkt> soundray, Okey, will try
[04:49] <premier69> it already accepts connections from other pc computers, do i have to configure epecially for other os's?
[04:49] <soundray> !try
[04:49] <ubotu> There is no try! There is only do, and do not.
[04:49] <soundray> ;)
[04:49] <juliangallego86> how do i run the defaul ubuntu and no edubuntu?
[04:50] <Dkt> soundray, nope, didnt work either.
[04:50] <Flippit> does anyone know how to set xorg to see a Genius NetScroll+ serial mouse?
[04:50] <soundray> premier69: if that is so, it's probably just Windows being mean this way. It's really a Windows support question, though.
[04:50] <soundray> Dkt: any error messages?
[04:50] <Jimmey__> Flippit, you could try reconfiguring the xserver with the mouse plugged it - Back up xorg.conf first, though
[04:50] <craigc> hi all
[04:51] <soundray> juliangallego86: I'm not sure, but have you looked at the session options on the login screen?
[04:51] <Flippit> Jimmey__: yep tried that a few times - it can't autodetect so it gives me alist of mice... Genius is not there tho! the default(Auto) doesn't work
[04:52] <Dkt> soundray, It says it cant find the folder/file only.
[04:52] <juliangallego86> yes
[04:52] <craigc> im having trouble streaming a dvd from a windows SMB share to totem movie player.  I have automounted the shares ok and can stream the file but it is constantly buffering every 2-3 seconds.  Any ideas?
[04:52] <rkalsi> HI guys, an y idea, where I can find libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so pakage
[04:52] <rkalsi> I have looked at the debian packages website, no luck,
[04:53] <Jimmey__> rklasi, The repositories?
[04:53] <Jimmey__> Search for libc in Synaptic
[04:53] <rkalsi> jimmey, searched there as well. no luck
[04:53] <soundray> Flippit: select serial as the protocol and /dev/ttyS0 as the device (or maybe /dev/ttyS1)
[04:54] <insertnamehere> hello
[04:54] <rkalsi> i can find libstc++ btu NOT libc
[04:54] <njan> premier69, have you tried running dhclient manually and seeing what happens?
[04:55] <insertnamehere> do you guys have any suggestions for a good irc client?
[04:55] <anthony> hi, i have a master hd and a slave hd, i'm trying to format the slave to jfs
[04:55] <njan> insertnamehere, xchat
[04:55] <Jimmey__> rkalsi, sudo apt-get install libc6
[04:55] <Zdra> insertnamehere: xchat-gnome
[04:55] <Jimmey__> insertnamehere, Gaim
[04:55] <anthony> insertnamehere: opera =] 
[04:55] <njan> premier69, actually, just a thought, the two machines you have xchat and xandros on.. are they single or dual-boot?
[04:55] <insertnamehere> thanks i'll check those out
[04:56] <anthony> how do i format a slave hd to jfs?
[04:56] <wizzlefish> have people had problems with ubuntu sound previously?
[04:56] <premier69> njan yes i have but im not sure i know where to enter what info
[04:56] <wizzlefish> !sound
[04:56] <ubotu> Help to fix issues with sound can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[04:56] <rkalsi> Jimmey, libc6 is already the newest version.!!!
[04:56] <wizzlefish> yaarg! I already tried those...
[04:56] <juliangallego86> soundray: i've already look that
[04:56] <Jimmey__> rklasi, why do you need it?
[04:56] <Derevko> anthony: you could try sudo cfdisk /dev/hdX
[04:56] <premier69> njan i had xandros on it but i formatted it using ubuntu and now that is what i have installed
[04:56] <soundray> Dkt: please enter 'cp -a /home/frantic/CT_Raid', then hit the Tab key. Does it complete the filename for you?
[04:57] <njan> premier69, what sort of PC is it?
[04:57] <anthony> derevko: i've tried that, i get an error, let me try again with the sudo though
[04:57] <premier69> right now im using my laptop with vnc to chat with you from my main computer, my linux machine is in another rooom
[04:57] <craigc> premier i came from xandros too he he didnt get on with it
[04:57] <rkalsi> for vncserver
[04:57] <rkalsi> any alternate to that, Jimmey?
[04:57] <craigc> ubunutu seems much nicer, still new to linux though
[04:57] <njan> craigc, glad you're enjoying it :)
[04:58] <premier69> njan its a dell optiplex
[04:58] <anthony> derevko: alright, the sudo solved that problem.  if my slave d rive isn't mounted, will i still be able to format it ?
[04:58] <njan> craigc, ubuntu is a good starting place
[04:58] <premier69> optiplex 260
[04:58] <craigc> its all good so far :)
[04:58] <premier69> very unusual machine
[04:58] <wizzlefish> what is wrong with my sound?
[04:58] <Derevko> anthony: yes
[04:58] <Jimmey__> rkalsi, are you compiling from source?
[04:58] <njan> premier69, it's fairly standardised
[04:58] <premier69> craigc i like ubuntu better that xantos becouse of this irc channel
[04:58] <njan> premier69, the 260s  have 3com 3c509 cards onboard afaik
[04:58] <rkalsi> no, i downloadd the binary, Jimmey
[04:58] <wizzlefish> does ubuntu 5.10 often have problems with sound?
[04:58] <rkalsi> Just running the binary file , Jimmey.
[04:58] <njan> premier69, which shouldn't not work in ubuntu
[04:58] <soundray> wizzlefish: do you hear anything at all?
[04:58] <Jimmey__> wizzlefish, what's the problem
[04:58] <wizzlefish> no, I don't
[04:58] <craigc> first time in here, been using the wiki up to now which is very usefull
[04:58] <Jimmey__> rkalsi, try sudo apt-get install libc6-dev
[04:58] <soundray> wizzlefish: is your soundcard recognized?
[04:58] <semboy> someone here who is helpfull
[04:59] <wizzlefish> soundray: I've heard things before
[04:59] <anthony> derevko: there's a primary and swap partitions on there,  can i just delete them both and create a new partition, then select jfs?  I don't want to poach this :)
[04:59] <rkalsi> same Jimmy - libc6-dev is already the newest version.
[04:59] <soundray> semboy: no, only grumpy old men
[04:59] <soundray> wizzlefish: what has changed?
[04:59] <premier69> njan, this is probably an easy thing to solve except i almost dont even know the basic navigation in this OS
[04:59] <anthony> derevko: and should it be primary or logical?  it's just a slave drive for storage
[04:59] <Jimmey__> Search in synaptic for libstdc, and crazily install all the ones that sound good.
[05:00] <wizzlefish> soundray: well, I can't hear anything anymore. if I restart, I can hear things from within XMMS, but if I close XMMS and open a flash file in Firefox, I can't hear anything, and if I switch back to XMMS, I can't hear anything
[05:00] <Derevko> anthony: yes, but are you sure have write /dev/hdX correctly? :) make attention, you could erase your ubuntu disk :)
[05:00] <wizzlefish> soundray: XMMS tells me that "something is blocking the sound card"
[05:00] <njan> premier69, on your linux box, 'sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.232 netmask 255.255.255.0 && sudo route add defalt gw 192.168.0.1 && sudo echo 'nameserver 192.168.0.1' >> /etc/resolv.conf
[05:00] <rkalsi> Jimmey, it is complaining abotu 2 packages..
[05:00] <insertnamehere> ahh much better
[05:00] <Jimmey__> wizzlefish,
[05:00] <anthony> wizzlefish: have you tried changing the output ? from oss to alsi perhaps
[05:01] <premier69> njan thanks ill try that,, its a intel card NIC
[05:01] <rkalsi> are those 2 seperate packages OR just one ..named like that..?
[05:01] <Jimmey__> Press alt+f2, then type "killall esd"
[05:01] <njan> premier69, that'll configure your ethernet interface with a random IP from your IP range, set the default gateway, and configure DNS
[05:01] <wizzlefish> anthony: I've tried ESD, OSS, and ALSA
[05:01] <njan> premier69, see if you can ping google.com or 4.2.2.1 after that
[05:01] <soundray> wizzlefish: are you running the Gnome sound demon (esd)?
[05:01] <Jimmey__> wizzlefish, Press alt+f2, then type "killall esd"
[05:01] <bigmarCus> do you have to add anything special to the Xorg.conf to run Ubuntu in VMware?
[05:01] <wizzlefish> soundray: yes, I am
[05:01] <wizzlefish> Jimmey_: I'll try that
[05:01] <anthony> derevko: i intend to reinstall ubuntu anyhow on hda, but hdb is the hd i'm formatting
[05:01] <anthony> hmmm :o
[05:01] <premier69> i will try that, thank you for the suggestion
[05:01] <soundray> wizzlefish: do what Jimmey__ says, and then disable it via System-Preferences-Sound
[05:01] <anthony> amarok used to give me issues with gaim
[05:01] <njan> craigc, cool :).. hope you stick with us :)
[05:01] <njan> premier69, np. Windows guy?
[05:01] <anthony> and changing to alsa from oss helped
[05:01] <semboy> a litl help ppl please
[05:01] <semboy> semboy@SigurNafnjesu:~/.wine/drive_c/mozcontrol$ cd /home/semboy/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Steam
[05:01] <semboy> bash: cd: /home/semboy/.wine/drive_c/Program: No such file or directory
[05:01] <semboy> ;/(
[05:02] <wizzlefish> soundray: I'll do that
[05:02] <semboy> what is wrong
[05:02] <craigc> looking good so far
[05:02] <premier69> njan yes im a windows guy, for 8 years now
[05:02] <Derevko> anthony: ok :)
[05:02] <wizzlefish> soundray: what do I disable?
[05:02] <premier69> njan i want to learn more and linux seems to be a real interesting concept, i've been using linux since yesterday only
[05:02] <soundray> semboy: try 'cd /home/semboy/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Steam'
[05:02] <anthony> derevko: so should the 'part type' be primary or logical - i don't know the difference (it's just a slave drive for storage)
[05:02] <njan> premier69, cool :).. I'm an Infrastructure Consultant for almost-entirely-windows.. feel free to give me a shout again if you're still having problems. At the very least I can translate windows <=> linux for you :)
[05:02] <soundray> wizzlefish: open the dialog, it will be obvious
[05:03] <Derevko> anthony: the first should be primary
[05:03] <wizzlefish> soundray: it just says "Enable sound server startup" and "Sounds for events"
[05:03] <craigc> so anyone got any ideas why totem buffers every 2-3 seconds when streaming a vob file from my windoze SMB share?
[05:03] <njan> premier69, linux is lovely once you get used to it. There's a really nice sense of design and purpose to it, it makes a lot more sense than windows. Lots more flexible, far fewer silly design decisions.
[05:03] <soundray> wizzlefish: untick the sound server startup thing
[05:03] <wizzlefish> soundray: on the sound events tab, it just lists a whole bunch of sound events, and the system bell tab is useless as well
[05:03] <craigc> or direct me where to look :)
[05:03] <wizzlefish> soundray: oh, ok
[05:03] <anthony> derevko: how do i change the file system on it?  a buddy of mine suggested that i use jfs instead of ext3
[05:03] <njan> premier69, there are disadvnatages too, but you can find those out for yourself ;)
[05:04] <wizzlefish> soundray: will I have to manually start the sound server every time I boot?
[05:04] <premier69> njan that translation help will be usefull. i really liked the control center solution in xandros and the file browser, but again ubuntu seems similair enoguh but with the added support on irc and thats the most important thing for me
[05:04] <soundray> wizzlefish: now, try playing sound in xmms again
[05:04] <Derevko> anthony: there is a "Type" menu, choose it
[05:04] <wizzlefish> soundray: the output should be ALSA, right?
[05:04] <njan> premier69, right. Ubuntu not only has a far better community than xandros, but it's a much more nicely designed linux distribution as well. It really benefits from being debian-based.
[05:04] <soundray> wizzlefish: no, right now we're just diagnosing, but it will possibly be easiest to leave it turned off.
[05:04] <anthony> derevko: i'm there, i can't find journaled file system
[05:04] <premier69> xandros is also debian based isnt it?
[05:05] <njan> premier69, you actually get people from all parts of the linux world using ubuntu, which helps - people with a decade of experience right next to total newcomers.
[05:05] <premier69> but xandros isnt freeware it seems.
[05:05] <njan> premier69, sort of. Ubuntu stays significantly truer to its roots than xandros does ;)
[05:05] <EdThaSlayer> hello people
[05:05] <njan> premier69, ish. Xandros is still based on the same sofwtare with the same license, but xandros has a lot of non-free components as well, afaik.
[05:05] <soundray> wizzlefish: yes, try alsa output
[05:05] <premier69> i hope you guys can in some way find enough patience for us, for me
[05:05] <EdThaSlayer> you are right njan
[05:05] <EdThaSlayer> there are people from all over the world using this GREAT os
[05:06] <wizzlefish> soundray: on ESD, OSS, and ALSA it gives me the same error: "please check that your soundcard is configured properly, you have the correct output plugin selected, and no other program is blocking the soundcard
[05:06] <wizzlefish> "
[05:06] <premier69> njan what is afaik?
[05:06] <njan> The one nice thing about xandros is that some of the non-free components do things like integrating with Active Directory, which is sexy.
[05:06] <esox> hi, again. Now I can log with sudo again. :-)
[05:06] <njan> premier69, as far as I know
[05:06] <soundray> wizzlefish: the easiest way to get rid of the blocking program is probably to reboot.
[05:06] <njan> premier69, we all required help at some stage, I'm just repaying my debt to the community and accrueing positive karma by helping people whilst I'm at it ;)
[05:06] <craigc> ok guys thx for the welcomes, i may try to get mplayer installed as a work around to totem. Laters
[05:06] <anthony> derevko: if ext3 is fine for just storage, then that's all i need.  (i'm reformatting so i can have write access to the drive, it was an ntfs drive earlier)
[05:07] <wizzlefish> soundray: well, I've tried that - and it works, until I switch to another source, like Homestar Runner :O
[05:07] <anthony> derevko: i just don't know how to choose ext3 as the file system either
[05:07] <Derevko> anthony: It should be Linux
[05:07] <Derevko> anthony: "Linux" on cfdisk should be ext3
[05:08] <QMario> Has anyone gotten Ekiga to work on their machine?
[05:08] <anthony> derevko: alright, it's writing, thanks
[05:08] <cjfp> my terminal (aterm) is displaying some garbage characters locally, but it works fine over ssh.  any way to fix it?
[05:08] <cjfp> i think it's a font problem.
[05:08] <cjfp> i'm a bit crap at fonts.
[05:08] <anthony> derevko: after it's done, am i safe to leave cfdisk?
[05:08] <karl> Hi everyone :)
[05:08] <esox> But I have another question. I'd like to grant the user `backuppc' just reading rights for files, but reading and excute rights for directories. How can this be achieved?
[05:08] <soundray> wizzlefish: exit any program that uses sound before you use another, then.
[05:08] <QMario> For some reason installing ekiga's dependent packages wants it to be removed.
[05:08] <Derevko> anthony: yes, choose write
[05:08] <QMario> http://www.gnomemeeting.org/index.php?rub=5&path=ubuntu/breezy_i386
[05:08] <arrick> hey soundray ow'd you figure that out when noone else could?
[05:09] <soundray> arrick: cable?
[05:09] <rkalsi> HI guys, an y idea, where I can find libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so pakage
[05:09] <arrick> soundray, no the primary ide is bad
[05:09] <anthony> derevko: it's written, and i've left cfdisk.  so should i have write access to the drive now?
[05:09] <Derevko> anthony: yes, now you should mount it
[05:09] <arrick> im gonna let it boot, then try with secondary to see if that is bad as well
[05:09] <soundray> arrick: I'm very surprised myself at my diagnostic skills ;)
[05:09] <cjfp> mostly it seems to be having problems with replacements for ` and '.
[05:09] <arrick> soundray, ^^
[05:10] <anthony> derevko: i had it mounted before i formatted it (and edited fstab)
[05:10] <karl> Anyone know how i can get my sudo back?
[05:10] <anthony> derevko: but now i know that fstab is incorrect, any idea on what it should be now?
[05:10] <cjfp> instead of `hello' i see something like hello
[05:10] <soundray> karl: what's wrong with it?
[05:11] <QMario> Thank God it works!!! Never mind and thank you!!! :)
[05:11] <cjfp> and gnome-terminal just dies if I try and use the mouse in it.
[05:11] <Derevko> anthony: Is it mounted now?
[05:11] <arrick> rkalsi, do a google on it
[05:11] <anthony> derevko: yes
[05:11] <rkalsi> arrick, I did
[05:11] <arrick> ok
[05:11] <rkalsi> looked at debian packages site
[05:11] <anthony> derevko: but what should fstab be edited to ?
[05:11] <rkalsi> but no luck with it
[05:12] <Derevko> anthony: sorry. I don't understand, can you repeat now what is the problem exactly
[05:12] <arrick> rkalsi, are you running ubuntu?
[05:12] <rkalsi> yeah
[05:12] <rkalsi> of course
[05:12] <anthony> derevko: i had edited fstab so that it would mount the hd every time i rebooted
[05:12] <arrick> ok
[05:12] <Kmilo> Hi
[05:12] <arrick> !ask
[05:12] <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.
[05:12] <anthony> derevko: but the info in fstab says that the drive was 'ntfs', and now if it's ext3, what do i have to change in fstab
[05:12] <anthony> derevko: just the type'?
[05:13] <Derevko> anthony: yes
[05:13] <anthony> derevko: ok, i had a mask on it (though i don't know what it did) - dmask=000,fmask=0111 0 0
[05:13] <anthony> derevko: do i need those anymore ?
[05:13] <cjfp> Actually, ok, I see hello in gnome-terminal, hello in aterm locally, and `hello' in aterm remotely.
[05:13] <cjfp> I don't want to see the fancy quotes.
[05:13] <NikosGr> can you please help me install nvidia-glx and enable it?
[05:13] <arrick> soundray, is there any way short of replacing the mb to fix the primary IDE?
[05:14] <NikosGr> i apt got the packet but i cna enabled nad hence icna cnahge resolutions
[05:14] <karl> Everytime i try to use sudo it says : "sudo: timestamp too far in the future:"
[05:14] <Derevko> anthony: no, you can delete it and type "defaults"
[05:14] <anthony> derevko: so the line is now /dev/hdb        /mnt/mediahdd   ext3    defaults - that look fine ?
[05:14] <soundray> arrick: no, I wouldn't bother with that. Chances are you are going to wreck the rest of your board. Get a cheap PCI IDE adapter, e.g. Promise.
[05:14] <Derevko> anthony: and dump, pass ?
[05:14] <Derevko> anthony: you should have two numbers at end
[05:15] <anthony> derevko: there's nothing there, should i set them to 0 0 ?
[05:15] <arrick> soundray, I have one but wanted to ask, to be sure
[05:15] <NikosGr> can you help me out a bit plz?
[05:15] <Derevko> anthony: 0 2 better
[05:15] <soundray> NikosGr: take a bit more care when you type, and read ubotu's message:
[05:15] <soundray> !tell NikosGr about nvidia
[05:16] <karl> !tell karl about nvidia
[05:16] <anthony> derevko: thanks.  so when i write to the drive, i'm still writing to /mnt/mediahdd ?
[05:16] <anthony> derevko: say i rip a cd and intend on storing it on hdb, do i place it in that folder ?
[05:16] <NikosGr> The following packages have unmet dependencies.
[05:16] <NikosGr>   nvidia-glx-legacy: Depends: xserver-common (>= 4.0.3) but it is not going to be installed
[05:16] <NikosGr> E: Broken packages
[05:16] <Derevko> anthony: yes
[05:16] <karl> soundray: Well, every command i use it just goes : "sudo: timestamp too far in the future:" :S
[05:17] <cjfp> Ok, I'll try a different approach.  Does anybody have any idea how to force terminal quote display to be ` '?  It's a font issue.
[05:17] <arrick> what is the exact command in terminal to shutdown and turn the power of automatically soundray
[05:17] <premier69> in knoppix when you press ctrl+alt+del you get a similair menu to that found in windows 2000, is there anything like that in ubuntu?
[05:17] <crazy_penguin> arrick: halt
[05:17] <cjfp> Or, failing that, what channel do I ask about fonts on?
[05:17] <soundray> arrick: shutdown -h now
[05:17] <anthony> derevko: alright, i'm all set then, i think.  on hda there are hda1 and hda5, each set as ext3 and swap, respectively.  if that's normal for an ubuntu install, then i'm set
[05:17] <arrick> thanks
[05:18] <dooglus> my root directory (/) just changed permissions - it's now owned by root with permissions "drwx------" which makes logging in a bit of a problem.
[05:18] <dooglus> my user can't run any programs, or see any files.  why would that have happened?  and is it safe to change it back?  what permissions should it have?
[05:18] <arrick> soundray, thats a nice setup, the secondary is fine on it
[05:18] <arrick> thanks for your help
[05:18] <anthony> derevko: the reason i was going to reinstall ubuntu was because i thought i had botched the install, but if that's good, then i'm all set
[05:19] <Derevko> anthony: It could be ok, why are you thinking is bad?
[05:19] <anthony> derevko: when i installed ubuntu, i was installing over an old version, and it kept failing to write the filesystem
[05:20] <NikosGr> help please this didn solve my problem
[05:20] <anthony> derevko: so i tried to fix it myself, if it seems fine, then good :)
[05:20] <soundray> dooglus: mine is owned by root.root with rwxr-xr-x -- you probably have to go to recovery mode to fix it.
[05:20] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: did you try sudo apt-get -f install
[05:21] <Derevko> anthony: so, when you have installed ubuntu, you don't have formatting partitions, isn't it?
[05:21] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: with nothing after the word install
[05:21] <dooglus> soundray: I booted into debian sid, that's how I'm able to see the permissions on the directory
[05:21] <NikosGr> no
[05:21] <anthony> derevko: i don't understand what you're asking.  when i installed, i had some issues, but if fstab looks fine, then the install should be ok and i don't have to bother reinstalling :p
[05:22] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: please try it the full command being sudo apt-get -f install
[05:22] <NikosGr> yes
[05:22] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: it should either remove or install packages
[05:22] <NikosGr> gnomefreak, look
[05:22] <Derevko> anthony: hmm but your ubuntu boot correctly or not?
[05:23] <NikosGr> dell:~# lsmod | grep nvidia
[05:23] <NikosGr> nvidia               4544500  0
[05:23] <NikosGr> agpgart                29232  2 nvidia,intel_agp
[05:23] <NikosGr> i2c_core               19312  2 nvidia,i2c_i801
[05:23] <Derevko> anthony: What are your issues?
[05:23] <NikosGr> its installed
[05:23] <soundray> karl: run 'sudo -K'
[05:23] <NikosGr> but its not enabled
[05:23] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: dont paste in here
[05:23] <NikosGr> sorry
[05:23] <anthony> derevko: it boots fine.  and from the looks of it, the whole hdd is used in the manner that it should be, so, i'm just kind of checking my actions through confirmation
[05:23] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: are you trying to fix the broken packages or install nvidia drivers?
[05:24] <karl> soundray: "sudo: timestamp too far in the future: May 20 18:25:18 2006"
[05:24] <NikosGr> i dont really now
[05:24] <wizzlefish> soundray: I've restarted - should I try playing audio from XMMS or firefox?
[05:24] <NikosGr> iam confused
[05:24] <speedsix> Hi all, does anyone know how to make removable usb sticks write instantly. Mine seems to write when I issue the unmount command and I have no idea when it's finished writing?
[05:24] <Derevko> anthony: ahhh ok, yes, so it is all ok
[05:24] <anthony> derevko: cool thanks
[05:24] <_ismael> I'm do convmv -i -r -f UTF-8 -t ISO-8859-1  antiguo/ --notest but the system tell me "this file was not validly encoded in utf-8-strict:". For that I need to know what encoded  character is  the file  who I want convert
[05:24] <anthony> thanks for you guys's help, have a good day
[05:24] <Derevko> anthony: you are welcome
[05:24] <soundray> karl: is that when you run sudo -K ?
[05:24] <_ismael> I'm do convmv -i -r -f UTF-8 -t ISO-8859-1  antiguo/ --notest but the system tell me "this file was not validly encoded in utf-8-strict:". For that I need to know what encoded  character is  the file  who I want convert
[05:24] <karl> soundray: yeah
[05:25] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: run the command i gave you before (broken packages can cause you to not beable to install things lets take one step at a time please
[05:25] <Dkt> I have tried to move a folder with: " mv "/home/frantic/CT_RaidAssist/" "~/.wine/drive_c/WoW/Interface/" . But it doesnt work. Is something wrong in my paths or? Because it cant find "CT_RaidAssist" folder it says. I got the folder in my home-map.
[05:25] <NikosGr> ok gnomefreak
[05:25] <Kmilo> _ismael: file youfile
[05:25] <soundray> karl: what's the current system time?
[05:25] <NikosGr> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[05:26] <slackern> speedsix: you could try running 'sync' before removing the usbstick that will write unwritten stuff to it.
[05:26] <karl> soundray: 17:25. I changed it, once like an hour ago, and it was then sudo stopped working
[05:26] <soundray> speedsix: it finishes writing when the umount command returns. Run sync before you remove it to be sure.
[05:27] <NikosGr> there is no broekn package
[05:27] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: ok now please explain the problem that you are having (ex. no gui, or no 3d)
[05:27] <soundray> karl: change it to 18:25, run sudo -K, then set it back to the correct time again.
[05:27] <speedsix> slackern, soundray cheers
[05:28] <NikosGr> gnomefreak, i cannot chnage the reffesh rstaesits stuck on 60Hz, and i beleive thet is because nvidia isnt enabled
[05:28] <speedsix> It would be nice to be able to see when the right click->unmount had finished
[05:28] <nnacht> hi, I have a problem with Nvidia-driver
[05:28] <karl> soundray: The problem is, i can't change it back....whenever i try to use either sudo, root or su function it gives me an error...(I.e. when i use the "adjust date and time", it asks for a su passwd, i enter it, and it says : conversation with su failed)
[05:28] <soundray> speedsix: in dapper, you will get a popup message that goes away when it's finished.
[05:28] <nnacht> I 'm running dapper
[05:29] <nnacht> and try to install nvidia-driver
[05:29] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: what does the output of glxgears -printfps  look like. in the terminal you will see lines start printing can you give me the 3rd line only
[05:29] <soundray> karl: it will fix itself in one hour, if you can wait that long.
[05:29] <gnomefreak> nnacht: #ubuntu+1 please i can help you there if you like
[05:29] <NikosGr> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[05:29] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: dapper or breezy?
[05:29] <nnacht> the driver is compiled well and configuration is right(I think)
[05:30] <karl> soundray: Yes, thanks alot m8 :D
[05:30] <NikosGr> dapper
[05:30] <soundray> speedsix: you can also mount the stick with the 'sync' option to make it do every write immediately.
[05:30] <nnacht> but it complains that the module "nvidia" is not found
[05:30] <gnomefreak> NikosGr: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[05:30] <NikosGr> it alreasy installed
[05:30] <gnomefreak> nnacht: and NikosGr please join me in #ubuntu+1
[05:30] <nnacht> gnomefreak, ok
[05:30] <eduard> hello

[05:38] <eduard> is anyone running gnome 2.14 ?
[05:38] <eduard> i would like to install it on dapper
[05:38] <tiagonux> I
[05:39] <speedsix> soundray, yep
[05:39] <_ismael> When I try "convmv  -i -r -f utf8 -t ISO-8859-1  home/ismael --notest " the system tell me "iso-8859-16 doesn't cover all needed characters for /home/....". What happen?
[05:39] <soundray> eduard: it is in dapper by default.
[05:39] <slackern> eduard: Dapper uses GNOME 2.14.1
[05:39] <chaos_of_apocaly> can anyone recomend me a game to plat online?
[05:40] <Vixpad> chaos_of_apocaly: Not IRC?
[05:40] <soundray> speedsix: you can add a line to /etc/fstab to fix this. I tried with a USB stick of mine, it looks thus
[05:40] <chaos_of_apocaly> ??
[05:40] <ryeman77> is there a good p2p for Ubuntu
[05:40] <eduard> Soundray - how can i confirm that i am running that ?
[05:40] <Vixpad> chaos_of_apocaly: I dunno... half-life or something.
[05:40] <Vixpad> anyway
[05:40] <eduard> jusy for my own learning
[05:40] <chaos_of_apocaly> linux???
[05:40] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell ryeman77 -about limewire
[05:40] <Vixpad> chaos_of_apocaly: Sure

[05:41] <Vixpad> chaos_of_apocaly: Google it. you can WINE half life I think
[05:41] <soundray> speedsix: can you adapt that for your needs?
[05:41] <speedsix> yeah np, thanks alot
[05:41] <ryeman77> gnomefreat: have you had any success with limewire for linux?
[05:41] <chaos_of_apocaly> nothing beside wine?
[05:41] <Vixpad> Thinkpad Pentium II + Ubuntu?
[05:41] <soundray> eduard: System-About Gnome
[05:41] <speedsix> soundray, will that not attempt to auto mount it on boot though?
[05:41] <Xbox_guru> hi, I'm trying to get, Xlink Kai for on my computer so I can play my xbox, and I was wondering wich linux version I should download. The downloads page can be found here, http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/, just go to the downloads at the top, any help would be greatly appreciated
[05:41] <Flippit> does anyone know how to setup an old SoundBlaster ISA card in ubuntu?
[05:43] <Vixpad> Oh, there's an interesting problem though
[05:43] <soundray> speedsix: yes, you're right. Add noauto to the options to prevent that. It'll still automount when you plug it.
[05:43] <Vixpad> I only have wifi access on this laptop.
[05:43] <speedsix> excellent thanks
[05:43] <Xenguy> Question about NIC settings:  the 'ethtool' utility tells me that my eth0 is currently set at 10Mb/s, Half-duplex.  Should I try to set it to 100baseT/Full Duplex? (I don't really know the difference between 'half' and 'full' duplex actually) ?
[05:43] <Vixpad> So I don't think I can do a network install. Unless there's a wifi ready installer out there.
[05:43] <FOAD> Hi.
[05:44] <bakert> Hi all, I'd like to talk ActiveRecord.  What relationship do you need for a table that is just a lookup table.  That is, one that should not be updated upon "save"?
[05:44] <Noeve> Afternoon. I'm having trouble with my Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet card on Ubuntu Breezy - I just can't seem to get any networking.
[05:44] <bakert> whooop wrong room.
[05:44] <Vixpad> This is funny
[05:44] <soundray> Xenguy: half-duplex means that you can only send or receive at any one moment in time, like on a handheld radio.
[05:45] <|Cugel|> Hi.
[05:45] <sharp_> yo all
[05:45] <soundray> Xenguy: your ethernet driver should optimize this setting for the network you're on when it loads.
[05:45] <speedsix> soundray, fwiw the umount command exits instantly so I've no idea it has written all the files to disk.
[05:45] <FOAD> When I plug in my iRiver H340 jukebox, Ubuntu recognizes it automatically and put an icon + name for it on the desktop.  But when I plug in a usb stick or disk I only get a general usbdisk[-1,-2..]  icon.  What can I do to make it recognize specific usb devices like it already does for the iRiver?
[05:46] <soundray> speedsix: if you've mounted the drive with sync, there is no way it would unmount with any data still in the buffers.
[05:46] <EdThaSlayer> ok
[05:46] <Xenguy> soundray: OK, but my eth0 supports 100/Full according to ethtool; wouldn't it make sense to switch the setting from 10/Half to 100/Full?  Or is that risky for some reason?
[05:46] <soundray> FOAD: create a filesystem with a label on it, e.g. mke2fs -L NameYouWant
[05:46] <mr_foamfingermak> Hey folks
[05:46] <mr_foamfingermak> Is there anyway to test network speed using ubuntu?
[05:47] <soundray> Xenguy: I don't know, I just know that I would try...
[05:47] <mr_foamfingermak> Where is the XFconfig file located at?
[05:47] <FOAD> soundray.. er...? How does that line know which usbdisk to use?
[05:47] <mr_foamfingermak> /etc/??
[05:47] <slackern> Xenguy: what kind of device is eth0 connected too? does it support more than 10mbps and halfduplex?
[05:47] <|Cugel|> mr_foam: why not just go to a network test page on the web?
[05:47] <soundray> mr_foamfingermak: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:47] <harrisonk> anyreason why su wont work? I just installed ubuntu lastnight :(
[05:48] <speedsix> soundray, I understand, just the default behaviour seems a bit odd, i.e you copy files, unmount and have no idea when it's done
[05:48] <soundray> !tell harrisonk about root
[05:48] <harrisonk> ahh
[05:48] <harrisonk> thanks
[05:48] <Xenguy> slackern: on-board NIC, and yes, ethtool says it supports 100/Full, but is currently set to 10/Half
[05:48] <soundray> speedsix: I reckon that is why it has been fixed in dapper.
[05:48] <rab> is nubuntu jus full of network programs?
[05:48] <Xenguy> soundray: tx, I'll give it a try I think
[05:48] <slackern> Xenguy: I don't mean the card, what is the card connected to? A cablemodem, a 10mbit hub, a 100mbit switch?
[05:48] <sharp_> rab: better go to nubuntu irc channel
[05:49] <speedsix> soundray, I see. One last question, how do I find which /dev/* my usb drive is?
[05:49] <HymnToLife>  moi il er
[05:49] <Xenguy> slackern: ahh, OK.  Connected to a DSL modem
[05:49] <HymnToLife> woops, wrong chan
[05:49] <slackern> Xenguy: Then the modem must also support 100mbps and fullduplex or it will probably not work, usually gets what the router/modem/switch is running at.
[05:50] <slackern> Xenguy: thats called autonegotiation.
[05:50] <Xenguy> slackern: OK, so I need to check the specs on the modem
[05:50] <soundray> speedsix: plug it in, wait till it's mounted, then enter mount. It's most likely the last line, and most likely of the format /dev/sdX with X corresponding to a partition on the USB device.
[05:50] <rab> sharp_, its empty
[05:50] <sharp_> btw, i had my printer printing from a windows box a couple of months back but it seems to have stopped working
[05:50] <Xenguy> slackern: thanks for the explanation
[05:50] <sharp_> rab: ah
[05:50] <slackern> Xenguy: but you could try it, some devices are just silly sometimes also :)
[05:50] <slackern> Xenguy: and don't autonegotiate properly
[05:51] <sharp_> rab: its just that most people here wont know much about it
[05:51] <Xenguy> slackern: is ethtool the best tool to change my eth0 from 10/H to 100/F ?
[05:51] <soundray> sharp_: what is nubuntu anyway?
[05:51] <Frogzoo> slackern: Xenguy mii-tool can set your speed/duplex if autoneg won't cooperate
[05:51] <rab> soundray, its a ubuntu distro full of network tools
[05:51] <slackern> aye was just going to say mii-tool
[05:51] <Frogzoo> Xenguy: nope - mii-tool I find
[05:51] <sharp_> some ubuntu based distro, i was just serching google for *ubuntu and came across it
[05:51] <Xenguy> Frogzoo: tx, I'll look for that
[05:52] <sharp_> never really lookd into it
[05:52] <slackern> I've never used ethtool myself only mii-tool.
[05:52] <karl> How do i mount an ISO-file?
[05:52] <Frogzoo> !iso
[05:52] <soundray> Thanks rab, sharp_
[05:52] <ubotu> hmm... iso is download Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ and for help burning the CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[05:52] <Frogzoo> !loop
[05:52] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Frogzoo
[05:52] <Xenguy> slackern: OK, I'll check it out.  Tx again
[05:52] <sharp_> argh
[05:52] <karl> Oh, thanks :)
[05:52] <Frogzoo> karl: sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 blah.iso /mnt
[05:52] <sharp_> i usded to know how to maint iso;s
[05:53] <sharp_> need to write it down
[05:53] <karl> Frogzoo: Even better, thanks alot :)
[05:53] <sharp_> cheers Frogzoo
[05:53] <CarinArr> hey i have a question
[05:53] <CarinArr> heh (surprise)
[05:53] <Frogzoo> !loopback
[05:53] <ubotu> sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 foo.iso mountpoint/
[05:53] <Frogzoo> bah there it is...
[05:53] <Noeve> I'm having trouble with my Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet card on Ubuntu Breezy - I just can't seem to get any networking. Does anyone have any ideas
[05:53] <CarinArr> i was just using my cdrom drive. I'm not any more, but when i try to do "eject /media/cdrom" it tells me device busy
[05:53] <sharp_> whered this "foo" thing come from anyway?
[05:54] <|Cugel|> sharp: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metasyntactic_variable
[05:54] <Frogzoo> sharp_: originally 'fubar' f... beyond all recognition, supposedly
[05:54] <sharp_> cheers
[05:54] <arrick> morning Frogzoo
[05:54] <sharp_> both |Cygel| and Frogzoo
[05:55] <Frogzoo> hi arrick - how's tricks?
[05:55] <kane77> good day everybody!!
[05:55] <sharp_> altohugh i cant speel for beens
[05:55] <ompaul> sharp_ look for the "the new hackers dictionary" on line - that is where it came from in terms of internet use
[05:55] <arrick> going good now Frogzoo, soundray helped me figure out the problem with my old server this morning, and now its back up
[05:55] <sharp_> k ompaul
[05:56] <cjfp> anybody know about fonts?
[05:56] <FOAD> When I plug in my iRiver H340 jukebox, Ubuntu recognizes it automatically and put an icon + name for it on the desktop.  But when I plug in a usb stick or disk I only get a general usbdisk[-1,-2..]  icon.  What can I do to make it recognize specific usb devices like it already does for the iRiver?
[05:57] <soundray> FOAD: do you actually read the channel after you asked a question?
[05:57] <stjepan> I'm testin xchat systray notifications... pls tell me something :)
[05:57] <lumi> soundray: He did, and asked you about your answer
[05:57] <FOAD> Yes, do you actually read the question I asked you after that?
[05:57] <soundray> !tell stjepan about you
[05:57] <Frogzoo> stjepan: anything?
[05:57] <jpanegasser> im getting an error when trying to install ndiswrapper can someone help http://pastebin.com/728277
[05:57] <soundray> FOAD: I apologize, thanks lumi
[05:57] <stjepan> Frogzoo, again
[05:57] <Frogzoo> stjepan: anything? sure
[05:57] <harrisonk> why are none of my partitions showing up in fdisk -l o_O
[05:57] <cjfp> I upgraded to breezy because debian etch was broken, and now my terminal fonts are screwed up.
[05:58] <stjepan> Frogzoo, nothing, but ubotu worked
[05:58] <Frogzoo> harrisonk: sudo fdisk -l /dev/hd#
[05:58] <Frogzoo> stjepan: ubotu sends pms..
[05:58] <soundray> FOAD: I trusted your ability to fill in the device name.
[05:58] <harrisonk> ah, had to sudo it
[05:58] <stfn> i have two cd drives and would like to duplicate some cd's.  i stuck the source disk in one and a blank in the other, then right clicked the source disk icon on the desktop and selected "Copy Disc..." it created a .iso and a .toc in /tmp/ but said there was an error writting to the blank (that's it, just "an error") what application copies cd's with better error reporting and perhaps also not making an intermediate copy... k3b?  GnomeBurner
[05:59] <lumi> soundray: So a usb device should be mounted with its volume label, normally?
[05:59] <stjepan> Frogzoo, tell me something again
[05:59] <Frogzoo> stjepan: k3b for sure
[05:59] <Frogzoo> stjepan: dum de dum - this could get old real fast
[05:59] <stjepan> Frogzoo, again nothing
[05:59] <stjepan> Frogzoo, do you use xchat?
[05:59] <ompaul> stfn, making an intermediate copy is always good, the other thing is to reduce the burning speed to really low, as that helps the burner do a better job
[05:59] <soundray> lumi: it is, here -- but I'm running dapper. I don't know if breezy does the same.
[05:59] <Frogzoo> stjepan: open a chan & test yourself maybe?
[05:59] <stjepan> Frogzoo, I do not know what sound should I enable
[06:00] <jpanegasser> im getting an error when trying to install ndiswrapper can someone help http://pastebin.com/728277
[06:00] <cjfp> I asked on #xorg about the fonts, but I'm pretty sure it's a Ubuntu problem...
[06:00] <stjepan> Frogzoo, good idea, tnx
[06:00] <ompaul> stjepan, if your running dapper you should be in #ubuntu+1, and this is me telling you something :-)
[06:00] <cjfp> I just want ascii-128 ` ' instead of fancier quotes.
[06:00] <sharp_> "such as being the cheat code for Minesweeper on many versions of Microsoft Windows" kool
[06:01] <stfn> ompaul: the burning speed is greyed out at "as fast as possible" on the dialog that comes up when right clicking a desktop icon... part of why i'm looking for something with more "knobs" to tweak
[06:01] <ompaul> stfn, the use either gnomebaker or K3b
[06:01] <Frogzoo> stfn: k3b for sure
[06:01] <ompaul> stfn, in such a case I tend to use K3B myself and make the file that is to be burnt in a real directory
[06:02] <ompaul> stfn, as in not /tmp/
[06:02] <stjepan> ompaul, how do you know I'm running dapper? :)
[06:02] <stjepan> Frogzoo, tell me something :)
[06:05] <Noeve> I'm having trouble with my Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet card on Ubuntu Breezy - I just can't seem to get any networking. Does anyone have any ideas ?
[06:06] <stfn> ompaul, Frogzoo: thanks for the suggestions.  I will try GnomeBaker first since i'm running Gnome everything else.  I was really impressed with the simplicity of the UI (right-click "Copy Disk..." why thank you, Ubuntu, that's exactly what I want to do :) until it didn't work :P )
[06:06] <soundray> FOAD: is my hint working for you?
[06:06] <Frogzoo> Noeve: does /var/log/messages recognise the card?
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> Noeve,thats a normal wired card?
[06:07] <eikenberry> Is us.archive.ubuntu.com down? How about the wiki? I can't get to either?
[06:07] <FOAD> soundray: not so far
[06:07] <Noeve> Frogzoo, the card was recognised, I think. Activated, and everything seemed to work. I can't tell under /var/log/messages, I can't get under Ubuntu and on the net at the same time now.
[06:07] <Noeve> Dr_Willis, it's a wired card, yes.
[06:07] <Hobbsee> eikenberry: read the topic
[06:08] <eikenberry> Hobbsee. Crap... read the topic with this thought in mind... missed the relevant bit.
[06:08] <kakashi> hi there
[06:08] <Hobbsee> eikenberry: hehe
[06:08] <eikenberry> Hobbsee. Thanks anyways.
[06:08] <Hobbsee> not a problem
[06:08] <ompaul> eikenberry, I think Hobbsee wants you to read this piece:  The American (US) repositories are not working - please take the us. out of your /etc/apt/sources.list file. Thank you!   ;-) /me runs
[06:08] <Frogzoo> Noeve: ummm if you can't access the machine, how can we help you?
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> Noeve,  heck its even mentioned on the   ibm site as supportd by FC2 and so on.. wonder what module it uses.
[06:09] <ompaul> Hobbsee, not with, I am sooo hurt :-)
[06:09] <kakashi> i have a small problem with my ubuntu graphical interface ... when i installed ubuntu i saw only a screen full of stripes after loggin ... first time in ubuntu ... can you tell me what to do?
[06:09] <Hobbsee> :P
[06:09] <Noeve> Frogzoo, I was hoping for a solution, then reboot, try, then reboot into Windows to tell you it didn't work :P
[06:09] <Noeve> Dr_Willis, I'm told tg3.
[06:09] <nnacht> gnomefreak: I still a question to nvidia-driver
[06:10] <ompaul> kakashi, what kind of video driver have you got?
[06:10] <gnomefreak> nnacht: whats up?
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> Noeve,  hmm.. googling now site mentions    bcm5700  - but that may be a different card.
[06:10] <Noeve> Dr_Willis - Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet.
[06:10] <Tuzlo> off the top of their heads, anyone know the name of he GD libs for php
[06:11] <kakashi> ompaul ... u mean hardware? 9200SE radeon ATI
[06:11] <ompaul> kakashi, allow me to rephrase that, what video card have you got?
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> Noeve,  yea that only brings up several 100 hits on google. :P
[06:11] <Frogzoo> !tell kakashi about fixres
[06:11] <kakashi> ompaul: ;o)
[06:11] <nnacht> gnomefreak: the driver works. but I can not ajust the resolution for my wide screen tft, which runs at 1440x900
[06:11] <soundray> FOAD, with tune2fs, you can change an existing label on a filesystem.
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> Noeve,  also seeing som emention of the drivers being instable.
[06:11] <kakashi> fixres?
[06:11] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell nnacht about fixres
[06:11] <Frogzoo> kakashi: check the pm
[06:11] <gnomefreak> nnacht: check your pm from ubotu
[06:11] <ompaul> kakashi, please read the message and the wiki page that ubotu sent to you, it should be good to go after that
[06:11] <kakashi> pm?
[06:11] <slackern> Noeve: found this on a site. "You need to install the bcm5700 driver instead of the tg3 driver which ubuntu seems to choose."
[06:11] <gnomefreak> pm=private message
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> Noeve,  http://www.aquezada.com/staff/julian/journal/?p=56  - seems to mention that card in detail
[06:11] <Frogzoo> !fixres

[06:12] <Frogzoo> kakashi: ^^
[06:12] <nnacht> gnomefreak: ok, thanks, let me check.
[06:12] <ompaul> kakashi, check the tabs at the foot of the screen
[06:12] <Noeve> Slackern - what does that involve ? :)
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> slackern,  i agree.. web site i saw mentions the bcm5700 modules.
[06:12] <slackern> Noeve: someone mentioned that for onboard cards of that type also uses the module 'bnx2'
[06:12] <Frogzoo> ompaul: kakashi may not be registered - kakashi to receive pm's from the bot, you need to register with nickserv
[06:12] <frfx> hi.i have an ubuntu server.i want that my other ubuntu computers can play music that is located on the server.??
[06:12] <slackern> Noeve: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=403644 thats the thread i found.
[06:13] <ompaul> Frogzoo, you can recieve but cant send if your not registered
[06:13] <Noeve> Slackern, thanks a lot, I'll have a look at that now.
[06:13] <Frogzoo> frfx: samba maybe
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> the Tigon3 (tg3) driver was created by reverse-engineering the Broadcom bcm5700 drive
[06:13] <Frogzoo> ompaul: ah, i c
[06:13] <kakashi> Frogzoo: yes im not registered .... what am i supposed to do ...?
[06:13] <Vixus> If I install Ubuntu on my Thinkpad... how hard is it to setup wifi?
[06:13] <ompaul> kakashi, are you using xchat?
[06:13] <kakashi> ompaul: yes
[06:13] <Frogzoo> kakashi: nothing - but did ubotu send you a pm? doesn't matter - just read the wiki url above for fixres
[06:14] <robertl> Vixus: hardware?
[06:14] <kakashi> Frogzoo: ok
[06:14] <ompaul> kakashi, at the foot of the screen there are tabs, one of htem is marked ubotu please click on that
[06:14] <Vixus> robertl: Pentium II, 10GB hdd, USB Wireless dongle.
[06:14] <hastesaver> I can't eject.
[06:14] <Noeve> Slackern, I'll try that now, and back later. Thanks !
[06:15] <ompaul> hastesaver, type eject (drive name)
[06:15] <Tuzlo> they still havin apt server issues?
[06:15] <robertl> Vixus: whats the brand of USB dongle?
[06:15] <slackern> Noeve: Ok, goodluck.
[06:15] <watson540> hastesaver: unmount it first..then eject
[06:15] <hastesaver> ompaul, yes, eject says "eject: tried to use `/dev/hdc' as device name but it is no block device"
[06:15] <ompaul> haste try eject cdrom0
[06:15] <hastesaver> nothing is mounted on the CD... pressing the button on the drive doesn't eject it either
[06:15] <Vixus> robertl: Belkin
[06:16] <frfx> Frogzoo: i don't think that will work fine..i want a real music server
[06:16] <watson540> hastesaver: 'eject --force'
[06:16] <YoussefAssad> afternoon folks
[06:16] <soundray> Vixus: is it an FD7050?
[06:16] <kakashi> ompaul: ok ok i got everthing .... im just a bit slower than others ;o)
[06:16] <Vixus> soundray: Is what?
[06:16] <robertl> Vixus Belkin [what model number] ? =)
[06:16] <soundray> Vixus: your Belkin
[06:16] <Vixus> soundray: yeah... F5D7050
[06:16] <YoussefAssad> I've got a wee problem; azureus takes ages to start on this ubuntu 5.10 machine, and when it does start it pegs CPU utilization at 100%. Anyone seen this before? It had been behaving fine
[06:16] <ompaul> kakashi, I am going to have the bot send you more information you may find useful it might be worth bookmarking :-)
[06:17] <watson540> YoussefAssad: that's java for you :)
[06:17] <Subhuman> YoussefAssad, I have that happen with alot of java apps
[06:17] <Vixus> soundray: Good?
[06:17] <soundray> Vixus: they are a bit temperamental, but they work in breezy and dapper with the rt2570 driver.
[06:17] <Vixus> ok
[06:17] <hastesaver> nope, there's no such option as --force. I tried ejecting cdrom, cdrom0, and /dev/hdc, with and without sudo, and none of them work
[06:17] <Vixus> soundray: But I'll have to install Ubuntu the non-net way first
[06:17] <ompaul> kakashi, lots of good stuff there now
[06:17] <YoussefAssad> Subhuman: the odd thing is, a while ago it'd start just fine
[06:18] <robertl> no ethernet Vixus?
[06:18] <soundray> Vixus: better yet, the wired Ethernet way.
[06:18] <hastesaver> In fact, I notice I don't have hdc in my /dev directory either. Is this normal?
[06:18] <gnomefreak> hastesaver: places>computer right click the drive nad click eject (it should unmount and eject it)
[06:18] <kakashi> ompaul: ok
[06:18] <kakashi> ompaul: thx very much for your time ;o)
[06:18] <Subhuman> YoussefAssad, well I find, that Mercury messenger will use 0-20% normally, but doing anything will take this straight to 100%
[06:19] <Vixus> robertl, soundray: nope... I'd have to buy an ethernet adapter
[06:19] <Subhuman> like opening a chat window or starting webcam is a kller.
[06:19] <Subhuman> and I got a athlond 28000.
[06:19] <Subhuman> 2800*
[06:19] <Subhuman> 1 sec
[06:19] <robertl> Vixus: you might leave the USB wireless plugged in while you install via ethernet...
[06:19] <sharp_> I really deteste java programs
[06:19] <Vixus> robertl: damn, this only has one 1 USB socket
[06:19] <Vixus> :D
[06:19] <hastesaver> It says "eject: unable to find or open device for: `/dev/hdc'
[06:19] <hastesaver> "
[06:20] <robertl> how about pcmcia?
[06:20] <Vixus> robert;: of course
[06:20] <sharp_> like mercury, frostwire, azureus, there all a pain and i use the all
[06:20] <Vixus> robertl: yeah
[06:20] <gnomefreak> hastesaver: is it mounted?
[06:20] <watson540> hastesave: what is th output of 'eject -n'?
[06:20] <hastesaver> gnomefreak, no, not mounted
[06:20] <YoussefAssad> Subhuman: than we're seeing different things I think. Azursues used to run fine, now it takes 5 minutes to start and so on
[06:21] <soundray> Vixus: I would try the dapper live CD, see if it sets up your USB wireless and take it from there.
[06:21] <Vixus> robertl: I want a cool university laptop is all. this is running an old windows2000 sluggishly, so I thought it was time for a revamp
[06:21] <hastesaver> eject -n says the same thing (eject: tried to use `/dev/hdc' as device name but it is no block device)
[06:21] <Vixus> soundray: Ok, but I doubt it
[06:21] <hastesaver> it also says (eject: unable to find or open device for: `cdrom'), BTW
[06:21] <elkbuntu> what kind of experiences have people had running ubuntu on Toshiba Portege's
[06:21] <watson540> hastesaver: sounds like a hardwae problem
[06:21] <robertl> Vixus: soundray has good advise there
[06:21] <Vixus> robertl, soundray: I'll take it
[06:22] <ompaul> hastesaver, eject cdrom0 or eject cdrom1
[06:22] <soundray> Thanks robertl, I'm off now anyway. Good luck Vixus.
[06:22] <Vixus> soundray: Can I commit to hard drive then?
[06:22] <robertl> Vixus: looks like he quit, commit what?
[06:23] <hastesaver> watson540, hmm, but I can eject while my computer is booting.... Yes, a hardware problem is what I suspected too... maybe some cables are loose or something... I'll open it up and try fiddling with it, thanks.
[06:23] <Vixus> robertl: The distro
[06:23] <robertl> Vixus: install?
[06:23] <softwork> (j #astronomy
[06:24] <deefzi> what is the alsa default device? (/dev/???)
[06:24] <Vixus> robertl: Oh yes I can
[06:25] <robertl> Vixus: if you want to install but your only network connection is that USB wireless device, the install will work but you will have to deal with the network device post install, with breezy.
[06:25] <cyphase> does anyone know of a bonjour-compatible chat client for linux?
[06:26] <untung> hi, has any one tried using ubuntu on intel xeon server?
[06:27] <robertl> Vixus: soundray, I beleve was saying to bet on Dapper having better support for the USB device.
[06:27] <Trackilizer> Hello everyone, how does one delete files via the terminal?
[06:27] <r0xoR> does anyone know what the install prefix is for the gtk devel libs?
[06:27] <r0xoR> and or how can i get a file listing for a .deb?
[06:27] <Vixus> robertl: Yeah, it looks great. can't wait to give it a try?
[06:28] <test34> how can I enable vnc from the command line?
[06:28] <r0xoR> Trackilizer, rm
[06:28] <r0xoR> Trackilizer, rm myfile.txt
[06:28] <g0dchild> hi, is there any way to get some themes for gkrellm?
[06:28] <PowerTR> hi all
[06:28] <Trackilizer> Thanks
[06:28] <robertl> Vixus: is that the .iso you have? =)
[06:28] <Trackilizer> rm = remove??
[06:28] <g0dchild> !gkrellm
[06:28] <ubotu> g0dchild: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:28] <r0xoR> g0dchild, google man
[06:28] <Trackilizer> And how does one copy?
[06:28] <r0xoR> Trackilizer, cp
[06:28] <watson540> Trackilizer: cp
[06:28] <r0xoR> Trackilizer, rm = remove, cp = copy, mv = move
[06:28] <v3rtigo> DCC SEND "sleepm4reisafaggot"
[06:28] <stfn> cyphase: gaim 2.0 will, don't know anything already released
[06:28] <r0xoR> Trackilizer, mkdir = new folder, touch = new file
[06:29] <cyphase> stfn, yea, i forgot that gaim 2 supports it :)
[06:29] <g0dchild> r0xoR, did it, man, did it already :P but the place they upload the gkrellm themes seems to be down - http://muhri.net/gkrellm
[06:29] <r0xoR> Trackilizer, if the file already exists touch = update last modified date
[06:29] <cyphase> thanx though
[06:29] <r0xoR> g0dchild, oh well
[06:29] <robertl> Vixus: I have it on my desktop. it's nice. good luck in blowing away the slow thing that is win2k.
[06:29] <QMario> How do I start alsa?
[06:29] <Trackilizer> Is there anyway one can view files in server mode? i know how to start songs with "mpg321" but i'm not sure if one can view images
[06:30] <Yukoo> hi
[06:30] <QMario> I seem to have lost my sound.
[06:31] <Yukoo> anyone knows an editor other than gedit that shows me the corresponding line numbers ?
[06:31] <robertl> Trackilizer: er, I think X is needed to look at images. so if you have box without X, no dice. or if X is not running, no dice.
[06:32] <r0xoR> g0dchild, there's tons of gkrellms themes, just google a little more
[06:32] <gnomefreak> Yukoo: nano, emacs, vim, hundreds of others
[06:32] <r0xoR> g0dchild, you *might* find them in some alternate repos
[06:32] <Roconda_> pico too "I guess"
[06:32] <Calamaro> Hi everyone
[06:32] <Calamaro> I have a question regarding gnome-panel
[06:32] <Yukoo> nano shows the number ?
[06:32] <r0xoR> Yukoo, uhhh... *most* editors i would say do that...
[06:33] <r0xoR> Yukoo, but i would also say that most editors are crap and you should use vim
[06:33] <r0xoR> :)
[06:33] <r0xoR> just IMHO
[06:33] <Yukoo> nano doesnt
[06:33] <gnomefreak> Yukoo: im fairly sure it does
[06:33] <gnomefreak> hold on
[06:33] <YoussefAssad> cat /etc/hostname
[06:33] <Yukoo> i just want to see each line number to goto to the desired directly
[06:33] <arrick> did soundray leave?
[06:34] <Vixus> robertl: The ISO? Yeah, I need to burn it
[06:34] <robertl> Vixus: Dapper?
[06:34] <Sjors> Hi, I have a problem with my videocart: Everytime if i start Enemy Territory it gives this error: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[06:34] <gnomefreak> Yukoo: im sorry it has a go to line/colum number
[06:34] <Sjors> Anyone Suggestions?
[06:34] <Yukoo> oh
[06:34] <robertl> Sjors: what kind of video card?
[06:35] <slackern> arrai: aye he left
[06:35] <YoussefAssad> echogah, sorry...
[06:35] <Sjors> One mom. i gonna have a look
[06:35] <Yukoo> if i put the number it will goto it, this might be sufficient
[06:35] <Vixus> robertl: Yeah
[06:35] <slackern> oops sorry i ment arrick, yes he left.
[06:35] <Sjors> an Intel 82915G
[06:35] <robertl> Vixus: cool.
[06:35] <Yukoo> how to use the goto
[06:35] <Yukoo> ctrl with what letter
[06:35] <gnomefreak> Yukoo: read the help menu it lists the keys to use for everything
[06:35] <Yukoo> ok
[06:36] <arrick> thanks slackern
[06:36] <gnomefreak> Yukoo: its like f12 or something like that
[06:36] <robertl> Sjors: you familiar with the CLI?
[06:36] <arrick> nickrud, you on here yet?
[06:36] <premier69> Hello
[06:36] <robertl> Sjors: command line?
[06:36] <Sjors> How u mean?
[06:36] <Calamaro> premier69: hi
[06:36] <nickrud> arrick, I'm at my desk, not really here yet, though
[06:36] <robertl> Sjors: in using it, are you comf. with it?
[06:37] <premier69> would it be easy enough for a linux newbie to install another linux distro on a computer already running ubuntu, so i at startup could choose which to boot?
[06:37] <Sjors> Yes, under Windows it workd
[06:37] <lucasvo> premier69: depends on what distribution you have
[06:37] <Calamaro> premier69, it depends on what you mean by "easy enough"
[06:38] <Vixus> premier69: Yeah, just partition carefully. I managed a windows/linux dualboot on my first ever try. :D
[06:38] <Vixus> although that may have been easier
[06:38] <lucasvo> premier69: it shouldn't be any problem to install another suse or Fedora
[06:38] <arrick> !dualboot
[06:38] <ubotu> for wintel https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo :for the Mac https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[06:38] <robertl> Sjors: ok. so under Ubuntu start a terminal session, we need to figure out what driver is loaded.
[06:38] <arrick> premier69, ^^
[06:38] <Calamaro> if you installed it once, it should be fairly easy to do it again preserving the first one
[06:38] <Vixus> premier69: Keep the partition with grub on it intact
[06:38] <Yukoo> what is this key M-G
[06:38] <Sjors> Done ^^
[06:38] <diop> Is there a program in ubuntu like Microsoft Autoroute ?
[06:38] <Yukoo> M stands for what ?
[06:39] <gnomefreak> Yukoo: the windows key and the g key at same time
[06:39] <Vixus> robertl: By the way... when I install Ubuntu can I disable the grub bootloader? You know-- so it boots straight into Ubuntu?
[06:39] <Yukoo> windows key uff
[06:39] <gnomefreak> windows key = meta key
[06:39] <premier69> ok, well ive used linux since yesterday, im now using ubuntu and woul also like to have xandros installed
[06:39] <Sjors> Driver: gdg
[06:39] <Yukoo> thanx
[06:39] <Sjors> Driver Name    : gdg
[06:39] <Sjors> Description    : Intel 830M/845G/852GM/855GM/865G/915G Driver
[06:39] <Sjors> Architecture   : I386
[06:39] <Sjors> Build Date     : 20040604
[06:39] <Sjors> Kernel Module  : gdg
[06:39] <ismae1> Vixus: change the timeout to 0
[06:39] <premier69> so theres no boot.ini equivelent i have to worry about?
[06:39] <gnomefreak> Sjors: dont paste in here
[06:39] <arrick> !pastebin
[06:39] <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
[06:39] <robertl> Vixus: if you are installing ubuntu alone on a single drive grub will still be there =)
[06:39] <alissah> i need some pointers:  i have a cd i burnt in windows with chinese filenames.  when linux mounts the cd, the filenames just have question marks.  i'm thinking that i can change the iocharset/codepage to get the chinese names back...but don't know what settings i need.  can anyone point me to some online references? (i'm searching but not getting anywhere)
[06:40] <Sjors> ok Sry
[06:40] <Calamaro> premier69: technically speaking it is just like a normal installation; the only point to consider carefully is the boot manager configuration
[06:40] <premier69> i see
[06:40] <batman646> !php5
[06:40] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, batman646
[06:40] <Calamaro> premier69: I rekon (but others here may confirm this) that ubuntu should be able to detect any other pre-installaed os
[06:41] <premier69> pre installed os yeah but post?
[06:41] <robertl> Sjors: from the shell;   lsmod |grep i810
[06:41] <ismae1> Calamaro: Grub/Lilo usually recognice pre installed os
[06:41] <premier69> I suppose i could reboot and try
[06:41] <gnomefreak> anyone ever heard of plucker? and know how to use it?
[06:41] <premier69> if you could manage it on your first try then maybe i can too
[06:41] <ismae1> Premier69: post? umm.... you'll have to either manually edit grub/lilo's config
[06:41] <Sjors> yes and then?
[06:42] <premier69> wow, ok
[06:42] <ismae1> premier: or have faith in auto-configs (which I don't know how to use)
[06:42] <Calamaro> ismae1: it's what I just said :)
[06:42] <premier69> I'll try having some paith then even to i am atheist
[06:42] <robertl> Sjors: does it return a result, is i810 loaded?
[06:42] <premier69> faith even
[06:42] <ismae1> Calamaro: hehe, sorry
[06:42] <Sjors> Shell opens an new line
[06:42] <Calamaro> premier69: what other linux distro are you planning on installing?
[06:42] <Sjors> No Information
[06:42] <Calamaro> ismae1: no problem ;)
[06:43] <Calamaro> :)
[06:43] <premier69> Calamaro i have ubuntu now, and was thinking of also having xandros 3 on the same machine
[06:43] <ismae1> premier: It isn't really that hard to manually config grub/lilo, most you have to know is in which partition the OS is
[06:44] <r0xoR> would anyone here help me in trying to compile vim7 on ubuntu?
[06:44] <harrisonk> what would be the best way to ftp mount in ubuntu
[06:44] <r0xoR> i've been trying over and over to get ./configure to use gtk
[06:44] <r0xoR> but it just won't
[06:44] <Calamaro> premier69: then I would suggest having a look at xandros3 (which I know nothing about) to see if it supports autodetection of preinstalled OSs
[06:44] <r0xoR> it sucks
[06:44] <robertl> Sjors: hm, k. i810 is not loaded. how about; lsmod |grep intel
[06:44] <premier69> i only have one hdd in this computer and linux is on the hd0 or whatever its called
[06:44] <robertl> Sjors: then weed thru possible sound card info.
[06:44] <Sjors> It returns an superlong list
[06:44] <ismae1> how do I tell gaim to use the english dictionary to correct my spelling? This all red thing is driving me mad! :S
[06:44] <ciaron> does the live cd include ati drivers?
[06:45] <robertl> Sjors: heh.
[06:45] <Calamaro> premier69: if not, as ismae1 says, changing grub/lilo won't be a big deal
[06:45] <robertl> Sjors: don't paste it here.
[06:45] <Sjors> 1 mom i go to pastebin
[06:45] <varsendagger> has anyone gotten kino to work?
[06:46] <robertl> Sjors: cool.
[06:46] <premier69> Calamaro I'll look into that, and thanks ismae1
[06:46] <ismae1> premier: no prob.
[06:47] <ismae1> premier: remember that you have to run grub-update or lilo after config changes
[06:47] <Sjors> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14342
[06:47] <blue-frog> is there a way to "ignore" someone in irc pls?
[06:47] <mjr> blue-frog, usually the feature is called "ignore"
[06:47] <harrisonk> what would be the best way to ftp mount in ubuntu
[06:47] <arrick1> blue-frog, who you giving the iggy award to?
[06:48] <blue-frog> noone on this channel I'd just like to know how to do that
[06:48] <ismae1> premier: if you are post-installing another OS (particullary, windows) be aware that you might have to reinstall grub/lilo from some bootable media
[06:48] <roryy> blue-frog: /ignore nick@*!* is one way -- where nick is to be replaced by the nick in question
[06:48] <roryy> blue-frog: depending on your irc client, /help ignore might tell you something
[06:49] <blue-frog> ty going to have a look at /help then
[06:49] <ismae1> brb
[06:50] <arrick1> gnomefreak, he said not in this channel
[06:50] <gnomefreak> ah
[06:50] <bit_doidao> how to use legends on divx?
[06:50] <robertl> Sjors: I see where intel_agp is loaded, but i don't know if the graphics chip driver is loading... reading a bit.
[06:50] <robertj> ack
[06:50] <stfn> alissah: click System -> Administration -> Language Support and make sure the appropriate language is installed first, else maybe look here http://www.ubuntu.org.tw/ or here http://www.ubuntu.org.cn/

[06:51] <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.
[06:52] <gnomefreak> |H-raf|: it would be simular to chmod a+x /path/to/file
[06:52] <premier69> ismae1 thank you
[06:52] <gnomefreak> but a+x needs to be replaced with what you want

[06:54] <arrick1> SeMb0yNewtoLinux, follow the link ubuto pasted
[06:54] <gnomefreak> SeMb0yNewtoLinux: you can just follow the link ubotu posted

[06:55] <robertl> Sjors: is this a laptop, with onboard graphics?
[06:55] <eugman> Can anyone here do me a favor? I'm a still a bit new to bash and I'd like a script that would startup all the torrent files in /home/eugene/torrents/

[06:55] <ubotu> arrick1: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:55] <gnomefreak> SeMb0yNewtoLinux: and if you follow the instructions on the nvidia site you will have 3d drivers
[06:55] <arrick1> !caps
[06:55] <ubotu> FYI, typing in ALL CAPS is considered to be 'yelling', and therefore rude behaviour.
[06:56] <FOAD> Okay.. so how do I change the label of a vfat usb stick please?
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> FOAD,  if ya had a windows machine handy.. plug it in and rename it.   not sure of the best way to do it under linux.
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> FOAD,  there used to be some 'dostools' that could do it. but havent seen those mentioned in ages.
[06:57] <arrick1> FOAD, use freedoss
[06:57] <arrick1> FOAD, use freedos
[06:57] <Sjors> No It's a Desktop PC
[06:57] <FOAD> There's mtools but the mlabel man page mentions a drive: name... which the stick doesn't have?
[06:57] <Sjors> a Dell Dimension 3100
[06:57] <premier69> when trying to logon to my windows computer from ubuntu over the lan displays this error message: the folder contents could not be displayed, is this becouse i have password enabled on my xp pc? i could access another win xp comp on my lan not using a password
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> it should be a /dev/sd##
[06:58] <MisterN> FOAD: adapt ~/.mtoolsrc
[06:58] <Sjors> But it's a integrated videocard
[06:58] <FOAD> MisterN: adapt it.. how?
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> premier69,  i tend to make user and passwords wihh the same name/pass on both windows and my linux box's
[06:58] <arrick1> premier69, more than likely the password is encrypted for that system
[06:58] <MisterN> FOAD: first you need to find the device name
[06:58] <DjHardtrac> hello
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> may want to try out some of the other samba browser tools to see if you can get a better error/info.
[06:59] <MisterN> FOAD: then add a line like drive i: file="/dev/sdg1" to ~/.mtoolsrc
[06:59] <premier69> arrick1 what does that mean?
[06:59] <FOAD> ok...
[06:59] <premier69> Dr_Willis i could make a new user account on my xp with the same as my linux has
[06:59] <premier69> Dr_Willis tho, that shouln't matter, right?
[06:59] <arrick1> sometimes there is encryption with your XP box password that ubuntu will not enterpret correctly, therefore XP will not allow login
[07:00] <hastesaver> watson540, you were right; the cable connecting the cd drive to the motherboard was loose. Fixed it
[07:00] <premier69> arrick1 ok, i'll test making a no password account
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> premier69,  you could.. you also could make sure you are in the same 'workgroup' may help - samba can be really really picky at times.. and the gnome tools just dont give a lot of options and error info at times.
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> premier69,  i much perfer 'smb4k'
[07:00] <watson540> hastesaver: me? right? there's a first time for everything :)
[07:00] <premier69> Dr_Willis smb4k?
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> premier69,  thats the name of a kde based samba browsing tool
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> theres dozens of other samba browsing tools out there. Gnome and kde both have their SMB://// based tools.
[07:02] <Dr_Willis> !samba
[07:02] <ubotu> I guess samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[07:02] <FOAD> MisterN: that worked.  Thanks.
[07:02] <Tuzlo> tryin to install php5 on ubuntu, I apt-get installed phpd but phpinfo still tells me that 4.4.0-3ubuntu2, is this an apache problem or did I miss something in php5?
[07:02] <arrick1> Dr_Willis, did you hear what my problem was earlier?
[07:02] <premier69> Dr_Willis ok, I'll try finding out where i set my user workgroup
[07:02] <Tuzlo> phpd=php5
[07:03] <FliesLikeABrick> Tuzlo 1) did you uninstall php4 before installing php5 and 2) did you restart apache after installing php5 ?
[07:03] <Tuzlo> restarted apache, but didnt uninstall php4
[07:03] <Tuzlo> remove wont get rid of all php4 packages will it?
[07:04] <FliesLikeABrick> you can't have php4 and php5 coexist in apache without manual configuration
[07:04] <vdepizzol> join #ubuntu-br
[07:04] <Tuzlo> ah
[07:04] <FliesLikeABrick> why don't you want it to get rid of everything?
[07:04] <batman646> Tuzlo if you tried sudo apt-get remove php4* that may work
[07:04] <FliesLikeABrick> batman646  that is excessive
[07:04] <FliesLikeABrick> he hasn't removed php4 at all
[07:04] <FliesLikeABrick> he just needs to do apt-get remove php4 php5
[07:04] <FliesLikeABrick> then apt-get install php5
[07:04] <FliesLikeABrick> to make sure everything is happy
[07:05] <arrick1> yep
[07:05] <FliesLikeABrick> stop apache before doing any of that
[07:05] <Tuzlo> gotta love that, removed php4, and phpinfo still says 4.4.0-3ubuntu2
[07:05] <FliesLikeABrick> Tuzlo thats because you didn't restart apache
[07:05] <Dr_Willis> arrick1,  what? :P i missed it.
[07:05] <Tuzlo> yes I did
[07:05] <FliesLikeABrick> Tuzlo  did you remove php4 and php5 ?
[07:05] <FliesLikeABrick> and stop apache before doing that?
[07:05] <Tuzlo> 4 only
[07:05] <FliesLikeABrick> stop apache, remove both, then reinstall php5
[07:05] <FliesLikeABrick> then start apache
[07:05] <Tuzlo> ok
[07:05] <elkbuntu> Tuzlo, so you did apache -k restart or apache2 -k restart
[07:05] <arrick1> Dr_Willis, soundray help me figure out that the primary IDE on the mb is bad, and not its all fine and happy after I disabled it in the ios
[07:06] <arrick1> bios
[07:06] <Dr_Willis> arrick1,  heh - may be time to invest in a new $50 motherboard.
[07:06] <premier69> where do i set what workgroup i am in?
[07:06] <arrick1> Dr_Willis, nah, I have a pci-ide adapter im going to use for now
[07:07] <Tuzlo> elkbuntu: .etc/init.d/apache stop then started
[07:07] <Tuzlo> now its fucked up royally
[07:07] <elkbuntu> Tuzlo, apache -k restart should be all you need :)
[07:07] <elkbuntu> unless thats an apache2-only thingo
[07:08] <elkbuntu> Tuzlo, try it to see, alot easier than remembering the path
[07:08] <FliesLikeABrick> elkbuntu they do the same exact thing
[07:08] <Tuzlo> I dont have apache2 installed
[07:08] <SeMb0yNewtoLinux> check this out www.oldeenglish.org/rapvideo.html
[07:08] <elkbuntu> Tuzlo, see what FliesLikeABrick said
[07:08] <Tuzlo> and apache -k restart, stop or start gives me a help menu
[07:08] <SeMb0yNewtoLinux> that is me :)
[07:08] <FliesLikeABrick> Tuzlo  elkbuntu  it does not matter what he does, it is just a matter of taste
[07:09] <Tuzlo> thought so
[07:09] <Tuzlo> but anyway
[07:09] <bosco> how do i make a folder write protected so that even if i try and CD into it it asks me for my root password i am the only user on the laptop
[07:09] <elkbuntu> Tuzlo, you should probably run apache2 over apache anyway, since it's newer and all
[07:09] <Tuzlo> removed apache 4 and 5, stopped apache, restarted it and well phpinfo is now a blank page
[07:09] <arrick1> Tuzlo, (and its more secure
[07:09] <FliesLikeABrick> Tuzlo  you need to reinstall php5
[07:10] <MilesTormani> Could someone explain to me why Terminal is refusing to realize x folder/file exists?
[07:10] <FliesLikeABrick> Tuzlo  stop apache, apt-get install php5, then restart apache
[07:10] <arrick1> MilesTormani, cause it probably doesnt
[07:10] <arrick1> did you reconfigure X?
[07:10] <MilesTormani> Said folder/file is sitting RIGHT ON MY DESKTOP, so I'm pretty sure it's there. And what do you mean?
[07:10] <FliesLikeABrick> MilesTormani permissions or you are in the wrong folder/looking in the right place , or it doesn't exist
[07:10] <FliesLikeABrick> arrick1 he is not talking about Xorg
[07:10] <arrick1> ok
[07:11] <FliesLikeABrick> he is talking about folder <x> as in <a random folder/file>
[07:11] <Tuzlo> did all that and Apache/1.3.33 (Debian GNU/Linux) PHP/4.4.0-3ubuntu2
[07:11] <FliesLikeABrick> MilesTormani where are you looking?
[07:11] <Tuzlo> there somethin in the apache config
[07:11] <Tuzlo> ?
[07:11] <MilesTormani> /home/miles/Desktop/folder/file
[07:11] <FliesLikeABrick> Tuzlo  are you running ubuntu or debian?
[07:11] <Tuzlo> ubuntu

[07:12] <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.
[07:12] <andres> I need to move a file and is not possible
[07:13] <andres> any idea
[07:13] <delmar> when I run games under Cedega (or other app using sound) I can't use TeamSpeak. If I run TeamSpeak first, it works but then no sound works anywhere else.  So teamspeak is trying to use /dev/dsp directly and hogging the sound hardware. Under Settings and Options in TeamSpeak, there are 3 options,  Default (oss /dev/dsp), Default Network (8780:L) whatever that is, and Other where I c
[07:13] <delmar>  an specify a path of some kind ... ive tried all sorts of stuff but can't seem to get TeamSpeak to play nice.  Anyone know what I should do?
[07:13] <Tuzlo> any ideas FliesLikeABrick?
[07:13] <helpneeded> iv just moved from  xp as its been giving mer nothing but greif on alppy i have and installed ubuntu ....  im impressed so far
[07:13] <arrick> wow, where the devil is _jason when you need him?

[07:14] <MilesTormani> What are you doing?
[07:14] <helpneeded> cool  ... ok  im doing a last project foir this year ...
[07:15] <helpneeded> and they want us to  make aquicxktime move  (as its to be played on a ,mac
[07:15] <helpneeded> but it has to have both images and sound in itr
[07:15] <helpneeded> and to be saved as mov
[07:15] <helpneeded> any ideas
[07:16] <MilesTormani> I think if you use Wine to run the Windows version of Quicktime, that /could/ work. However, Wine's kinda... unstable, so.
[07:16] <hastesaver> helpneeded, you can convert to quicktime using ffmpeg, I think
[07:17] <rab> if natutilus is a window manager, can you just replace that with blackbox or fluxbox?
[07:17] <helpneeded>  truthfull  i realy dont  know this o/s iv had it installed for a couple of days  (less than 2)
[07:17] <MilesTormani> So could someone tell me why Terminal's not seeing this directory, even if I tell it to open from that directory's location?
[07:17] <helpneeded> but hell im wondering why i never had it on beofre
[07:17] <iand> does the directory exist?
[07:18] <MilesTormani> I'm staring at it on my desktop, so, yes.
[07:18] <iand> just checking
[07:18] <Jimmey__> MilesTormani, cd /home/username/Desktop/foldername ?
[07:18] <stfn> alissah: selecting Chinese from Language Support will install a bunch of zh UT8 packages.  I don't know what gb or big-5 are (except that en_GB is British English)
[07:18] <MilesTormani> I'll try that now.
[07:18] <Jimmey__> MilesTormani, or cd Desktop; ls
[07:18] <iand> try typing "ls /home/username/Desktop/"
[07:19] <iand> that should show if its there
[07:19] <elkbuntu> and make sure you're typing 'Desktop' with a uppercase d
[07:19] <MilesTormani> Realized that recently. ^^;
[07:19] <hastesaver> helpneeded, First, make sure you have the codecs to *play* quicktime movies -- look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats . Next, install acidrip or gtranscode, they are GUI apps for converting between formats
[07:19] <rab> if natutilus is a window manager, can you just replace that with blackbox or fluxbox?
[07:19] <elkbuntu> so you're all good now MilesTormani?
[07:20] <MilesTormani> Yeah, but I probably should use sudo or something. ^^;
[07:20] <iand> blackbox and fluxbox are for windows
[07:20] <icaro> help me plz, i'm havin some problems with upgrading to dapper :/
[07:20] <manava> HELLO
[07:20] <helpneeded> ah iv installed some of the restriced / ... just mp3 at the min  ... but i downloaded the w32 codas as well
[07:20] <Jimmey__> rab, nautilus isn't a window manager
[07:20] <Kr0ntab> icaro, #ubuntu+1
[07:20] <arrick> icaro, go to ubuntu+1 for dapper support please
[07:20] <iand> metacity is the window manager
[07:20] <elkbuntu> MilesTormani, you should only use sudo when it tells you that you cannot do something otherwise, and even then, weigh up the possible complications
[07:20] <icaro> thanks
[07:20] <rab> oh
[07:20] <manava> do you know a good media player for ubuntu ?
[07:21] <rab> is there anyway to customize what you want?
[07:21] <elkbuntu> manava, depends which media
[07:21] <MilesTormani> elkbuntu: I'm trying to get this to install system-wide, so as to not have multiple installations of it.
[07:21] <Jimmey__> rab, you can install fluxbox
[07:21] <Jimmey__> sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[07:21] <Jimmey__> Then choose a fluxbox session from the GDM menu
[07:21] <xzotick> what are the minimum requirements for running ubuntu?
[07:21] <iveqy> hi, I've having some heavy problems trying to configure an nfs server in ubuntu. I've got the error msg: Permission denied. There's also some very intresting lines in the logs at the server. Anyone that would like to take a look?
[07:21] <elkbuntu> MilesTormani, this = ubuntu?
[07:22] <Steff_breezy> hello, I have posted a screenie of my desktop here: http://img287.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bildschirmfoto4ix.jpg   How can I cange the colour of the workspace switcher (red circle)?
[07:22] <Jimmey__> 64MB RAM server, 128MB RAM desktop, xzotick
[07:22] <MilesTormani> elkbuntu: Flash Player 7.
[07:22] <stfn> manava: try Totem first, it's under Applications -> Sound & Video -> Movie Player
[07:22] <rab> i did, there is really nothing there, I right click and see [xterm]  [restat]  [exit] 
[07:22] <manava> thank
[07:22] <elkbuntu> MilesTormani, um. i'm not sure you can
[07:22] <MilesTormani> Erm... it's a Linux version, so why wouldn't it work?
[07:23] <premier69> where do i check my network settings? what my computer name in the network is, and what workgroup i'm in...
[07:23] <MilesTormani> premier: Are there Windows computers on the network?
[07:23] <elkbuntu> MilesTormani, because theoretically, each user on a linux box may have different preferences
[07:23] <premier69> yes
[07:23] <andres> I cant move a file as sudo
[07:23] <xzotick> what about processor speed?
[07:23] <premier69> MilesTormani yes
[07:23] <MilesTormani> premier69: You need Samba, I believe. It should be available through Synaptic (apt-get)
[07:23] <elkbuntu> andres, what error?
[07:23] <mike930> can someone tell me how to connect to my digital camera without going through the iport photos dialog?
[07:24] <Jimmey__> xzotick, anything above 800Mhz is probably alright
[07:24] <MilesTormani> elkbuntu: This is my own personal computer, so I'm not too worried about everyone's preferences.
[07:24] <helpneeded> can i ask  i havent seen much oinfo on it  but can you install apple quicktime on ubungto at all ?or is ther an alternitive something like qt pro ? just a ? as i check out advice you gave
[07:24] <elkbuntu> MilesTormani, very few programs come with a 'dictator' option ;)

[07:24] <xzotick> i got a 677 right now with 256 megs in it. its a celeron
[07:24] <helpneeded> roflmao sorry ;)
[07:24] <MilesTormani> elkbuntu: I worry about that when I actually start sharing this computer, which is unlikely. :P
[07:24] <Jimmey__> xzotick, that's fine
[07:25] <premier69> MilesTormani ok i'll look for that
[07:25] <andres> elkuntu, what is wrong here....# sudo mv /home/andres/Desktop/spca5xx-20060501
[07:26] <xzotick> i loaded it up on my 400 mhz with 128 megs.. was a little sluggish in the desktop.
[07:26] <MilesTormani> andres: I think you're already logged into root, so sudo is unnecessary.
[07:26] <gnomefreak> andres: there is only one path
[07:26] <Jimmey__> xzotick, you should try with XFCE, or fluxbox
[07:26] <Jimmey__> !xubuntu
[07:26] <ubotu> I heard xubuntu is Ubuntu using Xfce instead of Gnome for the desktop. Details here: https://www.xubuntu.org
[07:27] <andres> elkuntu, no way
[07:27] <MilesTormani> What's Xfce?
[07:27] <andres> i'm in the destination location
[07:28] <gnomefreak> MilesTormani: its a desktop envionment
[07:28] <andres> elkuntu, i'm in the destination location
[07:28] <gnomefreak> same lines of gnome or kde or fluxbox
[07:28] <MilesTormani> Right.
[07:28] <rab> Jimmey_, im influxbox buti cant access my apps
[07:28] <MilesTormani> I was just wondering what it had over GNOME.

[07:31] <assasukasse> someone could tell me if i can put up a webserver with ubuntu or is better i go for another distro?
[07:31] <gnomefreak> SeMb0yNewtoLinux: just told you how now please join #ubuntu+1
[07:31] <jhenn_> How can I tell which of two machines is better supported?
[07:31] <gnomefreak> ompaul: bad mood?
[07:31] <gnomefreak> lol
[07:31] <acke> Hey, i just installed ubuntu.. really easy, and very good looking. I havnt used linux very much. but I cant find my windows drives.. Can I access them in some easy way? they are fat32
[07:32] <Flannel> acke: they're fat32?
[07:32] <ompaul> gnomefreak, no our team won :-)
[07:32] <acke> acke yeah
[07:32] <gnomefreak> ;)
[07:32] <acke> flannel yeah
[07:32] <frfx> i want a music server on my ubuntu server.ideas?
[07:32] <Subhuman> acke, well normally ubuntu will mount them for you if they are fat32
[07:32] <acke> subhuman, in mnt_
[07:32] <acke> ?
[07:32] <MilesTormani> Need to sign out for a bit. I'll be back in case I can help with something else.
[07:32] <Subhuman> acke,  ubuntu uses /media instead of /mnt
[07:33] <xzotick> is the install very complicated? on fluxbox?
[07:33] <acke> ooh o.O
[07:33] <scabootssca> when linux is booting this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14343 happens and it dodnt used too and i was wondering what it was
[07:33] <Jimmey__> xzotick, no
[07:33] <Jimmey__> sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[07:33] <acke> subhuman, only cds in media
[07:34] <xzotick> which binary would you recommend?
[07:34] <robertl> acke: open terminal, type; mount
[07:34] <robertl> acke: do you see any reference to vfat?
[07:34] <Subhuman> acke, open a terminal (applications/accessories/terminal) and type "cat /etc/fstab" , do you see anything saying "vfat" or "fat32"
[07:34] <robertl> acke: mount |grep vfat
[07:35] <GaiaX11> I can see the video (.avi), but totem has no sound. Any hints?
[07:35] <Subhuman> acke, or do mount :P, i jus find the output messy to look at.
[07:35] <robertl> Subhuman: you got it, I don't want to confuse or hinder.
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> GaiaX11,  could be the audio is in a codec it cant handle
[07:35] <Subhuman> robertj, no worries, actually i might have to be off in a minute anyway.
[07:36] <rab> is there a way to can compile ubuntu with things, such as a different DE and WM?
[07:36] <Dr_Willis> rab,  just install the others.. its trivial
[07:36] <gnomefreak> rab: feel free to install them ;)
[07:36] <Subhuman> rab,  use apt-get or synaptic to get new DE or WM
[07:36] <iveqy> rab yes, but you don't have to compile.. :)
[07:37] <ilottimo> DE? WM?
[07:37] <Dr_Willis> rab,  or ya coulddownload/ install  the kubuntu, or xubuntu disks
[07:37] <Subhuman> rab,  like" apt-get install kde " or "... install fluxbox"
[07:37] <Subhuman> ilottimo,  DE - Desktop Enviroment | WM - Window Manager
[07:37] <gnomefreak> ilottimo: de =desktop enviornment wm=window manager
[07:37] <Dr_Willis> Ubuntu and Linux FUNdamental -> thers always stuff you can change. :P
[07:37] <rab> i wanted to combind nubuntu with xfce and a light WM
[07:38] <iveqy> anyone here that know anything about nfs?
[07:38] <GaiaX11> Which codec do I need then?
[07:38] <GaiaX11> Dr_Willis, how can i discover?
[07:38] <Subhuman> rab,  flux isnt light?
[07:38] <Kyoske> Kyoske here, i got this big problem with my ubuntu
[07:38] <rab> well isnt flux a WM?
[07:38] <iveqy> rab yes it is
[07:38] <Dr_Willis> GaiaX11,  run the player from the shell and see if any error messages are shown. also try othe rplayers. and check into the 'verbose' message options of the players.
[07:38] <iveqy> rab but it's not a DE
[07:38] <Kyoske> if anyone could take the time to help me, i would appreciate it very much
[07:39] <rab> then I could install nUbuntu and have xfce DE with flux as a WM?
[07:39] <robertl> Kyoske: what is the problem you seek help with?
[07:39] <semboy> i am trying to install ubuntu dapper
[07:39] <Dr_Willis> Nubuntu>

[07:41] <rab> k, just to clear things up, I would just install nUbuntu and then just sudo apt-get install xfce4 (or xubuntu-desktop, whichevers better) and fluxbox will already be,
[07:41] <Kyoske> do you know why nothing pops up?
[07:41] <iveqy> gaah, but the NFS server howto isn't written yet
[07:41] <Subhuman> rab, yes.
[07:42] <robertl> Kyoske: you can fire up a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and type; sudo aptitude update
[07:42] <Dr_Willis> GaiaX11,  i would say.. dont use totem. try vlc
[07:42] <Subhuman> nubuntu uses fluxbox and does not have gnome by default.
[07:42] <rab> thanks subhuman
[07:42] <Kyoske> really? thanks!
[07:42] <ompaul> sembotnewtolinux, stop changing your nick its spamming the channel you don't need to say that in a nick anyway
[07:42] <robertl> Kyoske: then; sudo aptitude upgrade
[07:42] <P3L|C4N0> greetings
[07:42] <sembotnewtolinux> take a chill pill dude
[07:42] <robertl> Kyoske: I don't know why your update mgr is not popping up.
[07:42] <sembotnewtolinux> i changed 2
[07:42] <sembotnewtolinux> is that a spam
[07:42] <gnomefreak> sembotnewtolinux: stop
[07:43] <Subhuman> rab, tbh I'd leave the nubuntu default fluxbox, cuz flux with that choke theme looks sweet :D
[07:43] <Kyoske> ok i did that
[07:43] <Kyoske> now what?
[07:43] <rab> tbh ?
[07:43] <wizzlefish> for some reason, my sound is sounding all fuzzy, and it wasn't this way this morning...I think it has something to do with esd, or asla - what would it be?
[07:43] <Kyoske> i put in my pass again and nothign happened
[07:43] <Dr_Willis> I like the MatchBox Desktop. :P but i am weird.
[07:43] <gnomefreak> rab: to be hnest
[07:43] <Subhuman> To be Honest
[07:43] <gnomefreak> honest even
[07:43] <robertl> both update and upgrade?
[07:43] <sembotnewtolinux> haha
[07:43] <rab> oh, well dont you need a DE?
[07:43] <watson540> sembotnewtolinux: buh-bye
[07:44] <Kyoske> robert: was somthing supposed to happen after i but in my password?
[07:44] <robertl> Kyoske: both update and upgrade?
[07:44] <Tylerofl> has anyone here managed to get flash to work on firefox?
[07:44] <robertl> Kyoske: yes, should.
[07:44] <Kyoske> nothing did
[07:44] <Anonymusius> I have an little question: How can I check wether my network cart is working properbly in Ubuntu?
[07:44] <robertl> Kyoske: hmmm.
[07:44] <Kyoske> i put my password in, and it just went down a line
[07:44] <MilesTormani> Tylerofl: Well, I just installed flash 7... not sure if it works though, as my test site uses flash 8. ^^;
[07:44] <Kyoske> as if i pressed enter

[07:45] <Anonymusius> *subhuman k
[07:45] <swissgeek> omg
[07:45] <robertl> Kyoske: your prompt should change from a $ to a #... spaces and everything.
[07:45] <Kyoske> well nothing happned
[07:46] <roryy> i recommend 'sudo -i' over 'sudo su -'
[07:46] <MilesTormani> 'sudo -i' is what I use.
[07:46] <sparkleytone> !ppc
[07:46] <ubotu> ppc is, like, PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers.  Supported by Ubuntu PPC.
[07:46] <Kyoske> sudo -i dent work either
[07:46] <robertl> Kyoske: did the $ change to a #?
[07:46] <Kyoske> no
[07:46] <mwe> it has the same effect
[07:46] <sivik> anyone here use a ati RADEON 7000
[07:46] <Kyoske> nothing works for me ><
[07:46] <sivik>  and the 3d acc?
[07:46] <sparkleytone> ok, so i can ask ubuntu-ppc questions here?
[07:46] <MilesTormani> Kyoske: Edit your applications folder, and add Root Terminal
[07:46] <Anonymusius> @subhuman: I don't see anything there except some modem connection
[07:46] <roryy> Kyoske: do you not even get an error message?
[07:46] <Kyoske> miles, i have no idea how to do that
[07:46] <ompaul> sivik, use the info from the bot and do it this way next time: /msg ubotu ati
[07:47] <Kyoske> roryy: no i am not
[07:47] <robertl> Kyoske: listen to MilesTormani, thats a good tip.
[07:47] <MilesTormani> Right click Applications, and click Edit Menus.
[07:47] <Kyoske> robert: i don tnkow how to do that though
[07:47] <roryy> Kyoske: has sudo worked previously?
[07:47] <Kyoske> ok
[07:47] <Kyoske> i dont know
[07:47] <Kyoske> dont think so
[07:47] <MilesTormani> Hold on. Pulling up prompt for further instructions.
[07:47] <blank_> I'm using mplayer-plugin along with firefox1.5, but whenever there's an embedded video, it loads/buffers it embedded-ly, but then opens a new little window to play the movie! how can I fix this?
[07:47] <robertl> roryy: I'm thinking his sudo has not.
[07:47] <Kyoske> ok im in edit menues
[07:47] <roryy> Kyoske: did you install ubuntu? did someone else?
[07:47] <Kyoske> i did
[07:47] <MilesTormani> Scroll down and click 'system tools', then click the checkbox by Root Terminal
[07:47] <Kyoske> i used the thrid kernel
[07:48] <sivik> ompaul: that doesn't work with this old of a card
[07:48] <Kyoske> ok i clecked it
[07:48] <Subhuman> Anonymusius, unless you use a modem it hasnt been detected.
[07:48] <sparkleytone> I boot Ubuntu 5.10 off of an external Firewire drive on a PPC Mac mini...any time i try to mount the internal drive (to backup to it), i receive this message: "mount: /dev/hda2 already mounted or /mount/path busy"
[07:48] <MilesTormani> From there, just click Applications, then highlight System Tools, and click Root Terminal
[07:48] <sparkleytone> /dev/hda2 is definitely not busy and it never matters what the path is.
[07:49] <Anonymusius> @subhuman, danr. that sucks. Do I have to manually detect my network cart then?
[07:49] <Kyoske> ok my root terminal is starting... i think
[07:49] <MilesTormani> As for whoever asked for help on Flash: Well, what I did was download the Linux version directly from Macromedia. Follow their instructions, but once you get to the part about opening the folder in the command line, open your terminal, then type cd /home/username/Desktop/install_flash_player_7_linux/
[07:49] <sivik> ompaul: it doesn't work with a 7000
[07:49] <umarmung> hi. if a badly written package overwrites files in /usr/share/mime like globs, magic etc. How can I regenerate those files?
[07:49] <ompaul> sivik, is there not a another version for the ones that don't fit in that category?
[07:49] <Kyoske> miles: im starting it but nothing comes up
[07:50] <MilesTormani> Kyoske: o.O;
[07:50] <sparkleytone> "fdisk -l /dev/hda" shows that the drive is definitely recognized
[07:50] <roryy> Kyoske: what does 'groups' output ?
[07:50] <sparkleytone> and shows its geometry and such
[07:50] <Kyoske> miles, brb ima reboot my comp

[07:57] <Anonymusius> Where can you manually detect your hardware? And can you add hardware after Ubuntu is installed?
[07:58] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: what hardware?
[07:58] <Anonymusius> network cart
[07:59] <Anonymusius> It worked when win98 was on it
[07:59] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Anonymusius about hardware
[07:59] <Subhuman> MilesTormani, if you open a terminal and type "alsamixer"
[07:59] <ala> I guess ubuntu detect it directly (network card), you need just to configure it
[07:59] <robertl> ompaul, nice with the /msg ubotu keyword tip. thanks.
[07:59] <LinuxJones> Anonymusius, run sudo network-admin and see if your card has been detected.
[07:59] <Subhuman> MilesTormani,  it might just be your master volume is muted.
[07:59] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: go to the link ubotu sent you look for your card and see if it has drivers for it
[07:59] <ompaul> robert1 I had something useful to contribute :)

[08:00] <r0xoR> apt-file maybe?
[08:00] <MilesTormani> gnomefreak: How do I do that here? I'm only familiar with that in Windows.
[08:00] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: type it in command line like sudo apt-get update or sudo apt-get install
[08:01] <gnomefreak> MilesTormani: in your bios
[08:01] <saquib> >>> is there any 64bit supported browsr other than Mozilla????
[08:01] <Subhuman> MilesTormani, only one sound card can work at once.
[08:01] <gnomefreak> r0xoR: dpkg has an option for that but off hand i dont remember try man dpkg
[08:01] <Subhuman> you can select between the two in System - Pref - Sound then default sound card drop down
[08:02] <gnomefreak> saquib: gui browser? text?
[08:02] <saquib> GUI based
[08:02] <gnomefreak> saquib: no gecko browsers huh?
[08:02] <robokop> !tell robokop about mp3
[08:02] <saquib> not browsers that run on the mozilla/firefox engines
[08:02] <MilesTormani> Would CA0106 be a Creative Soundblaster Live 24-bit? >>;
[08:02] <saquib> like opera, standalone..... but doesnt have 64 bit :(
[08:03] <Anonymusius> gnomefreak: WTH, I can't type my password in the commandline
[08:03] <gnomefreak> saquib: good luck lmao im not sure what epiphany uses for an engine
[08:03] <Subhuman> Anonymusius, it just doesnt show
[08:03] <acke> subhuman, I used disk manager to mount the 2 win drives. they are active now thanks for the help
[08:03] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: its typing its just not showing you
[08:03] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: security reasons ;)
[08:03] <Subhuman> its for security Anonymusius
[08:04] <Anonymusius> whoops
[08:04] <salah> the sound device is busy, how do I fix that?
[08:04] <Subhuman> acke,  awesome, glad itz working for ya :D
[08:04] <MilesTormani> Heh, I had that problem at first myself.
[08:04] <saquib> im running the 32 bit version of mozilla on my 64bit linux
[08:04] <LinuxJones> Anonymusius, sudo is a command to give you admin priviliges (or other priviliges) for running applications as root user. Root user is an administrative account used to make changes to your Linux system.
[08:04] <MilesTormani> Be nice if the asterisks were there, though.
[08:04] <saquib> for all plug ins support
[08:04] <saquib> thing is some stange thingsa re happening
[08:04] <gnomefreak> salah: use ps aux to find out what is using it than kill numberof process
[08:04] <saquib> for example, the v bulletin sites are acting crazy
[08:05] <Anonymusius> it says: Could not get lock - recource temponairly unavaible
[08:05] <saquib> specially when i want to attach something in v buletin based forums!!
[08:05] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: is that all it said?
[08:05] <Anonymusius> no, but It is on my other comp
[08:05] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: did it say another process is using it?
[08:05] <Anonymusius> yes
[08:05] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: close synaptic
[08:06] <salah> gnomefreak, how do I use that command?
[08:06] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: make sure nothing else is running apt-get
[08:06] <gnomefreak> salah: ps aux
[08:06] <Subhuman> salah, itz not a command.
[08:06] <Roconda_> hey! my apt-get is broke
[08:06] <Roconda_> what should I do ?
[08:06] <gnomefreak> salah: look for something using sound that shouldnt than type kill <pid#>  pid# being whatever number it is
[08:06] <erik_> Hi! Question- How can I change my computers hostname? (Ubuntu 5.10)
[08:06] <gnomefreak> Subhuman: sure they are
[08:07] <Anonymusius> gnomefreak: I'm sorry, but I'm really new to linux. What is synaptic and how do I close it
[08:07] <gnomefreak> Roconda_: define broke
[08:07] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: what do you have open right now
[08:07] <gnomefreak> Anonymusius: are you doing update? are you installing anything?
[08:08] <MilesTormani> Okay, my default sound card was changed, but the alsamixer still shows the Mobo one.
[08:08] <Anonymusius> no

[08:08] <Roconda_> Reading package lists... Done
[08:08] <Roconda_> Building dependency tree... Done
[08:08] <Roconda_> You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
[08:08] <Roconda_> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[08:08] <Roconda_>   phpmyadmin: Depends: php4-mysql but it is not going to be installed or
[08:08] <Roconda_>                        php5-mysql but it is not going to be installed or
[08:08] <Roconda_>                        php5-mysqli but it is not installable
[08:08] <Roconda_> ecki: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
[08:08] <gnomefreak> MilesTormani: right click the sound icon and change it to use the right one
[08:08] <gnomefreak> Roconda_: stop
[08:08] <Subhuman> gnomefreak, i was talking about "close synaptic" i kno "ps aux" is
[08:08] <Roconda_> its stoppied

[08:14] <Subhuman> then do a sudo apt-get install dist-upgrade
[08:14] <LinuxJones> SeMb0y-newtolinx, the simple answer is not easily. However Dapper will be out in about 1 1/2 weeks if you can wait that long and upgrade

[08:19] <sparkleytone> /dev/hda2 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!

[08:19] <LinuxJones> argh
[08:19] <mwe> sparkleytone: mount
[08:19] <sparkleytone> hda is absolutely NOT being used at all
[08:19] <sparkleytone> mwe: I boot Ubuntu 5.10 off of an external Firewire drive on a PPC Mac mini...any time i try to mount the internal drive (to backup to it), i receive this message: "mount: /dev/hda2 already mounted or /mount/path busy"

[08:20] <gnomefreak> salah: yw

[08:20] <Tomasso> can anyone please tell how do i install wmaker from a terminal ?
[08:20] <MilesTormani> What's the difference between Beta Version and Bleeding Edge?
[08:20] <gnomefreak> Tomasso: sudo apt-get install wmaker
[08:20] <sparkleytone> mwe: hda isn't mounted anywhere, and i can create a brand new dir and try mounting there and its the same error
[08:21] <premier69> tonyyarusso no such luck, nothing new there
[08:21] <Roconda> gnomefreak: ??
[08:21] <fliegenderfrosch> I've got a question: If I change the monitor, do I have to restart the computer or is it enough to restart the x-server?
[08:21] <sparkleytone> mwe: the problem is that somehow the kernel has this idea that the drive is in use
[08:21] <gnomefreak> MilesTormani: beta stopped adding new packages
[08:21] <premier69> infact, theres nothign new in the applications menu
[08:21] <mwe> sparkleytone: hm. odd
[08:21] <gnomefreak> Roconda: what?
[08:21] <Roconda> gnomefreak: can you help me with this : http://pastebin.be/311/
[08:21] <Daedryk> ciao
[08:21] <MilesTormani> So is Bleeding Edge recommended?
[08:21] <Anonymusius> I'm sorry, I found out my network cart isn't supported. I have an other computer (HP) with an onboard network cart, which is supported. Bu when I tried to install it, it said that there was an dhcp error (I don't know if I spelled DHCP correctly). It asked me to enter an ip adress after that to manually configure the DHCP. What should I enter there?
[08:21] <premier69> please help me
[08:21] <harrisonk> when i "sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-plugins", it tells me "Package gstreamer0.8-plugins is not available, but is referred to by another package."

[08:22] <tonyyarusso> premier69: Oh my bad..
[08:22] <Roconda> np
[08:22] <premier69> tonyyarusso you are not to faulter
[08:22] <gnomefreak> harrisonk: are you on dapper?
[08:22] <acke> How can I make synaptic work, as soon as i try to install anything it says that it has dependencis that it cant install. and i cant use it to install anything.

[08:22] <Roconda> can someone help me with this : http://pastebin.be/311/ << cant uninstall phpmyadmin
[08:22] <harrisonk> gnomefreak, breezy
[08:22] <Most_Wanted> hmm
[08:22] <tonyyarusso> premier69: I saw vlc, not vnc.  You can always run it from a terminal or the "Run Application" dialogue.
[08:22] <sparkleytone> is there a better channel to move to to get answers?  my problem isn't exactly your average "how do i get my sound card to work" type
[08:22] <Tomasso> gnomefreak, it returns it doesnt have libwraster3 , is tehre anyway to tell it to install the dependencies too ?=
[08:23] <gnomefreak> harrisonk: paste the full output of the command to install it please on pastebin
[08:23] <LinuxJones> Roconda, did you install php from the ubuntu repositories or some other place ?
[08:23] <Subhuman> sparkleytone, whats the prob? you never know this might be the place.
[08:23] <jhenn> can someone explain how to transfer files from a ubuntu machine (livecd) to a windows machine?
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> sparkleytone: If you ask it anyway someone might either know or know where to direct you.
[08:23] <Roconda> LinuxJones: with apt-get
[08:23] <gnomefreak> Tomasso: apt-get and aptitude will both install depends if it finds them (asuming your sources.list isnt mixed
[08:23] <premier69> tonyyarusso i will take a look and see if i can manage it, when installing an application from synaptic, where is it installed so i can launch the executable?
[08:23] <sparkleytone> i've asked it twice already
[08:23] <arrick> !patience
[08:23] <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.
[08:24] <gnomefreak> tonyyarusso: you can try installing it by hand
[08:24] <hastesaver> sparkleytone, maybe no one here at the time knows the answer. You can also try ubuntuforums.org while you wait.
[08:24] <sparkleytone> long story short...the kernel seems to think that the HD is in use when it isn't...it will let me repartition it and write the new layout, but it refuses to format a partition or mount
[08:24] <tonyyarusso> premier69: Executables usually end up in /usr/bin.  If you just type their name on a command line they'll run though, since /usr/bin (and others) are in your default path.
[08:24] <Subhuman> sparkleytone, are you sure the internal drive is not being used for swap?
[08:24] <jhenn> can someone explain how to transfer files from a ubuntu machine (livecd) to a windows machine?
[08:24] <premier69> 0739709162 ok
[08:24] <premier69> sorry
[08:24] <sparkleytone> Subhuman: 100% sure...the internal drive isn't being used for anything

[08:25] <gnomefreak> jhenn: ntfs has no write support its only readable
[08:25] <sparkleytone> is there a powerpc specific channel for ubuntu help?
[08:25] <tonyyarusso> jhenn: Is this a different machine as the target, or the native Windows install on the same one?
[08:25] <gnomefreak> sparkleytone: no
[08:26] <jhenn> gnomefreak: i know i only need to read off of it to get the files off
[08:26] <Subhuman> yeah Roconda do a "sudo apt-get remove php5 && sudo apt-get remove phpmyadmin && sudo apt-get install php4 phpmyadmin"
[08:26] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell jhenn -about mount

[08:27] <tonyyarusso> jhenn: Ooh.
[08:28] <jhenn> tonyyarusso: yeah just the docs i need so i can get rid of  windows and install ubuntu :)

[08:28] <harrisonk> hastesaver, i can do that with my sources.list right?
[08:28] <Roconda> yeah sorry
[08:28] <Subhuman> Roconda, I don't think so because it requires the php4-mysql module.
[08:28] <tonyyarusso> jhenn: But you have another Windows computer running to put the files on?
[08:29] <themaan> to put a floppy boot image onto a floppy would I jsut simply copy it or is there some program that I have to use
[08:29] <hastesaver> !tell harrisonk about repos
[08:29] <gnomefreak> harrisonk: enable universe and multiverse
[08:29] <jhenn> tonyyarusso: yes
[08:29] <gnomefreak> Roconda: stop pasting
[08:29] <themaan> I am trying to put a linux onto a floppy
[08:29] <Subhuman> Roconda, I didnt really mess about with it so im not 100%.
[08:29] <r0xoR> where can i set startup programs?
[08:29] <Roconda> Subhuman: you got php5-mysdql
[08:29] <r0xoR> i.e. for my gnome session?
[08:29] <Roconda> Subhuman: you got php5-mysql
[08:29] <gnomefreak> r0xoR: system>prefferneces>session
[08:29] <Roconda> can someone help me with this : http://pastebin.be/311/ << cant uninstall phpmyadmin
[08:29] <jhenn> r0xoR: you can do that in ~/.xinitrc
[08:30] <jhenn> tonyyarusso: any ideas?
[08:30] <Subhuman> Roconda, I know, but I dont think phpmyadmin sees it as itz looking for version 4.
[08:30] <MilesTormani> Okay, I got another 'cannot find directory' error when trying to install EasyUbuntu
[08:30] <harrisonk> Whoops.
[08:30] <tony_> i cannot play wmv files even after i have installed xmmplayer.
[08:30] <tonyyarusso> jhenn: Okay, well, you can mount the dead Windows drive in the live session and try to set up Samba and then access the share from the good Windows machine, but I think it would be less frustrating to go to the store and get a USB stick.
[08:30] <Subhuman> I dont need any of the features of php5 so I didnt really try to get it working with 5.
[08:30] <themaan> does anyone know how to mount a boot image onto a floppy I am trying to get my floppy image of Damn small linux to work
[08:30] <r0xoR> jhenn, even when logging in through GDM?
[08:30] <gnomefreak> tony_: install w32codecs
[08:30] <tony_> any oneknows any other apps that can play wmv files ?
[08:30] <jhenn> r0xoR: no idea
[08:31] <r0xoR> jhenn, then maybe you shouldn't advise what you don't know :)
[08:31] <[D-Tail] > Good evening everyone! :-)
[08:31] <tony_> gnomefreak, sorry is there an apt name for that?

[08:33] <collier> how do i install belkin f5d7001 wireless card on ubuntu 5.10
[08:33] <MilesTormani> [D-Tail] : Woo.
[08:33] <Subhuman> r0xoR, do it from sourcE?
[08:33] <r0xoR> Subhuman, ok i figured i'd have to do that
[08:33] <Overand> r0xoR: you can add the dapper sources and specify a repositry with dpkg
[08:33] <scabootssca> hey i need help i cant get captive-ntfs to install or if it is then i dont know how to use it
[08:33] <MilesTormani> Mind... exploding.
[08:33] <Overand> but you may end up with dependency issues and all sorts of fun crap
[08:33] <r0xoR> Overand, ahhh and that's what i'd like to avoid if possible
[08:34] <r0xoR> Overand, i think i'll compile from source then
[08:34] <Overand> well, source is a good way to go
[08:34] <[D-Tail] > I tried some solutions, which all worked with a certain '/dev/sda*' thing... don't have that when it's connected...

[08:38] <Polypterus> Hi. I'm using amsn as IM and Thunderbird as an e-mail client. I want to be able to open up Thunderbird from amsn, what command do I add to amsn for it to work?
[08:38] <LinuxJones> saquib, how did you install your new version of firefox, the version from the FF website ?
[08:39] <micktm> ciao!
[08:39] <weazzle> somehow my primary user lost sudo priviledges, what does one do in this situation?
[08:40] <Polypterus> I've tried $mozilla-thunderbird but that just opens up the hotmail web login, and I'm using gmail..
[08:40] <tonyyarusso> Polypterus: mozilla-thunderbird
[08:40] <[D-Tail] > does anyone know anything about that MTP - media connection thing for MP3 players?
[08:40] <sp3tt> Is the human theme of ubuntu available for windooze?
[08:40] <pavlixxx> tell me, please, why's ubuntu 5.10 still the latest?
[08:40] <blaCKFAith> yeo
[08:40] <weazzle> 6.04 got delayed and is now 6.06
[08:40] <scabootssca> hey i need help i cant get captive-ntfs to install i extracted it and then ran the install file in a terminal is that how?
[08:41] <Blissex> pavlixxx: the next one will be ready in a couple weeks hopefully.
[08:41] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: Do I have to restart amsn or something, because it didn't work?
[08:41] <ompaul> pavlixxx,  dapper was delayed by 6 weeks for extra polish and l10n
[08:41] <pavlixxx> weazzle: got delayed?
[08:41] <saquib> no, the ubuntu help site had this topic. LINK is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[08:41] <tonyyarusso> Polypterus: I'm not sure.
[08:41] <pavlixxx> ompaul: I didn't know that's possible
[08:41] <Ademan> is anyone familiar with "loki" game installers (actually i'm not entirely sure what it all is... but i'm curious)
[08:41] <weazzle> Dapper Drake (6.04) was scheduled to come out in April
[08:41] <saquib> now i just want to uninstal this 32 bit version
[08:41] <saquib> and use the original one
[08:41] <pavlixxx> ompaul: so it will be released next month?
[08:41] <ompaul> pavlixxx, it happend
[08:41] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: I'm using the automatix version of thunderbird
[08:41] <weazzle> however, not all the bugs were worked out to their satisfaction, so it won't come out until June
[08:41] <ompaul> pavlixxx, on the 1st
[08:42] <ompaul> !automatix
[08:42] <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.
[08:42] <pavlixxx> on the 1st... hmm, nice
[08:42] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: 1.5 Mail/News
[08:42] <tonyyarusso> Polypterus: Icky.
[08:42] <saquib> LinuxJones: no, the ubuntu help site had this topic. LINK is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxAMD64FlashJ
[08:42] <weazzle> Can someone tell me how to re-enable sudo access?
[08:42] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: lol, why is that?
[08:42] <pavlixxx> ompaul: so... you tell me to wait.... and not install breezy :-)
[08:42] <confused> is their a free version of Cadega?
[08:42] <pavlixxx> weazzle: isn't it /etc/sudoers?
[08:42] <weazzle> yeah, but I cant edit it
[08:43] <tonyyarusso> Polypterus: Will that command open TB from a terminal?  If so it's just an amsn thing, and then I'm lost.
[08:43] <weazzle> cause I can't sudo anymore
[08:43] <pavlixxx> weazzle: try a little bit and you will edit it
[08:43] <pavlixxx> :-)
[08:43] <pavlixxx> boot from cd or hack the bootloader :-)
[08:43] <weazzle> permission denied
[08:43] <ompaul> pavlixxx, I said no such thing, you can get dapper at cdimage.ubuntu.com, it is your call if you want stable and can wait until Thursday week fine, if not install 5.10
[08:43] <adam_> anyone know where to get the drivers for Linksys G card for laptops to work on ubuntu?
[08:43] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: Yes it opens TB from the terminal..
[08:43] <blue-frog> weazzle have to reboot in rcovery moce
[08:43] <blue-frog> recovery mode
[08:43] <weazzle> I wonder how this happened
[08:43] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: Thanks anyway though :)
[08:44] <bigmarCus> im a newbie, where is the xorg.conf located, i cant get x started.
[08:44] <tonyyarusso> Polypterus: Maybe amsn needs the full path.
[08:44] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: I'll give it a go
[08:44] <tonyyarusso> Polypterus: Try 'which mozilla-thunderbird' and using the output from that instead.
[08:44] <pavlixxx> ompaul: and... this means, that if i upgrade on 1st june... i can consider it stable?
[08:44] <pavlixxx> if I use the cdimage now
[08:44] <MilesTormani> http://pastebin.be/313/ <-- Someone explain please. xx;
[08:44] <confused> is their a free version of Cadega?
[08:45] <blank_> confused, nah
[08:45] <confused> dang
[08:45] <blank_> confused, but wine is starting to become a bit better at that stuff
[08:45] <blank_> www.winehq.org
[08:45] <blank_> check out the applications database
[08:45] <saquib>  LinuxJones: i did downlaod a 32 bit version of firefox from net as it was described in that site!
[08:45] <MilesTormani> I find Wine to be a little... riddled with bugs.
[08:45] <LinuxJones> saquib, can you just do the opposite of what they tell you to do. Where it says apt-get install you do apt-get remove. Delete the directory you installed in /usr/local/firefox32
[08:45] <confused> i'm using it now'
[08:45] <blank_> some games are on it, although not comparable to cedega, some are doing pretty good (such as WoW)
[08:45] <pavlixxx> and... tell me, what about the install program, the debian's will stay?
[08:45] <MilesTormani> For example, the color codes in mIRC do not show up.
[08:45] <dudanogueira> how to delete the grub from mbr?
[08:45] <ompaul> pavlixxx, perhaps, look at it this way, unstable - beta - release, the release today is 5.10 with a single command line you will be able to upgrade when 6.06 is out, is it your call,
[08:46] <weazzle> is there a way to go back and undo changes
[08:46] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: Didn't work either.
[08:46] <weazzle> like accidently changing all my permissions
[08:46] <saquib> LinuxJones: wud that create any more application problem?? cuz my 64bit firefox already is not working!
[08:46] <tonyyarusso> Polypterus: Nuts.
[08:46] <weazzle> I can't remember which groups I was added to before
[08:46] <blue-frog> weazzle reboot in recovery mode and edit sudoers
[08:46] <MilesTormani> http://pastebin.be/313/ <-- Could someone please tell me what the 'in parse' stuff means?
[08:46] <LinuxJones> saquib, the 64 bit version should still be in the applications >> Internet >> firefox web browser
[08:46] <weazzle> ok
[08:46] <saquib> yess, its there, but it WONT start!
[08:46] <blue-frog> and edit accordingly of course to the group you are in
[08:47] <saquib> LinuxJones: its there but wont start
[08:47] <blue-frog> or just add your user to the group
[08:47] <LinuxJones> saquib, open it in a terminal and see what errors come up
[08:47] <pavlixxx> ompaul: single command after editing /etc/sources.list, right?
[08:48] <Polypterus> tonyyarusso: Do you use amsn? It says: $recipient = Recipient ..
[08:48] <ompaul> pavlixxx, no, a single command that does that for you
[08:48] <blank_> after editing /etc/apt/sources.list it's recommended to type sudo apt-get update
[08:48] <LinuxJones> saquib, probably because FF32 and FF64 use the same config files in your home dir. If java or flash doesn't work in the 64 bit version that's probably what is preventing it from starting
[08:49] <saquib> LinuxJones: Error: Failed to send command: 500 command not parseable when i use the command firefox %U, when i use the command firefox, it starts the 32 bit version!
[08:50] <pavlixxx> ompaul: which one?
[08:50] <godzirra> Anyone know why my system would say "CRC Error System Halted" on bootup now?
[08:50] <deoryp> hi, i have a quick question for someone: I want to add another hd to my system, will ubuntu auto load it or do i have to figure out where the new hd is located and mount it myself, and then edit the fstab table
[08:50] <Tuzlo> SAMBA question: I cant get samba to authenticate users, I tried smbpasswd but it fails to change the passwords. Do users have to be added to samba, its been so long I cant remember
[08:50] <ompaul> pavlixxx, memory leak on my part
[08:51] <kkathman> deoryp:  you'll need to create a mount point, and alter the fstab
[08:51] <deoryp> kkathman, thanks, i thought so
[08:51] <kkathman> np
[08:51] <blaCKFAith> 5awatkoo
[08:51] <LinuxJones> saquib, I would delete all of that FF32 stuff and java/flash and try doing a re-install of firefox64
[08:51] <pavlixxx> ompaul: I'm used to debian... and I have to edit sources.list if I want something different than what i have
[08:52] <saquib> how do i delete everything?
[08:52] <godzirra> Does anyone know?  My linux box won't boot and I'm not sure how to boot it up
[08:52] <ompaul> pavlixxx, you can do things that way but you can also do >>sudo  update-manager -d<<
[08:52] <saquib> LinuxJones: how do i delete everything?
[08:52] <scabootssca> hey i need help i cant get captive-ntfs to install i extracted it and then ran the install file in a terminal is that how?
[08:52] <ompaul> pavlixxx, I patched my memory (well tab and a clue got me there :))
[08:52] <DarkJesus> Can someone help me with a problem?
[08:53] <LinuxJones> saquib, go here > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava , where it says apt-get install you do apt-get remove. Delete the directories you created and try to re-install firefox 64
[08:53] <DarkJesus> I've installed ubuntu fine, but I've never been able to login
[08:53] <DarkJesus> The splash shows, but then it just stalls
[08:54] <DarkJesus> I can do ctrl-alt-backspace
[08:54] <pavlixxx> ompaul: update-manager ??? cute
[08:54] <DarkJesus> Then I try again and it does the same thing
[08:54] <dmbt> DarkJesus: the login screen comes up?
[08:54] <drasko> Hi all. I reinstalled windows and overwrited MBR. Now I do not have GRUB. I booted in the Knoppix now, so can someone please give me instructions how to install GRUB again?
[08:54] <DarkJesus> dbmt, it does
[08:55] <dmbt> so you enter in your username, and password, it shows the loading thing, and the rest of the desktop just doesn't come up?
[08:55] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell drasko about grub
[08:55] <DarkJesus> Yep
[08:55] <godzirra> Anyone know why my system would say "CRC Error System Halted" on bootup now?  Or how to fix it?
[08:55] <dmbt> DarkJesus: are you using breezy?
[08:55] <DarkJesus> 5.10
[08:55] <dmbt> hmm
[08:56] <DarkJesus> Any ideas?
[08:56] <dmbt> DarkJesus: i have an idea for something you can test
[08:56] <DarkJesus> What?
[08:56] <Blissex> godzirra: that sounds very bad. It is most likely the CPU or the hard disk cable.
[08:57] <dmbt> can you press crtl-alt-F1
[08:57] <DarkJesus> Yeah...
[08:57] <dmbt> you get to a text only login prompt right?
[08:57] <DarkJesus> I'm not on it right now, but yeah, I do
[08:57] <Tuzlo> godzirra might wanna look at the MBR
[08:57] <dmbt> try logging on that way
[08:57] <DarkJesus> I'll do that
[08:57] <DarkJesus> Thanks a lot
[08:57] <dmbt> wait
[08:57] <dmbt> im not finished
[08:57] <dmbt> lol
[08:57] <godzirra> If it was the MBR, would the grub prompt come up at all Tuzlo?
[08:58] <saquib> LinuxJones: i cant seem to find any where using the apt get to isntall firefox!! it was untarred and the an executable was made!!
[08:58] <Tuzlo> godzirranot sure
[08:58] <DarkJesus> If that doesn't work, do you think apt-getting fluxbox or something will work?
[08:58] <DarkJesus> Go on, dmbt
[08:58] <dmbt> when your logged in, type in this command 'useradd test'
[08:58] <dmbt> oops
[08:58] <dmbt> i mean 'sudo useradd test'
[08:58] <dmbt> and then passwd test
[08:58] <dmbt> to set the password
[08:58] <dmbt> press crtl-alt-f7
[08:58] <dmbt> and try to login with that
[08:59] <dmbt> with the username test
[08:59] <DarkPope> dmbt, did you say anything?
[08:59] <LinuxJones> saquib, did you install it to your home directory ?
[09:00] <DarkJesus> dmbt
[09:00] <dmbt> DarkPope: i was talking to DarkJesus
[09:00] <saquib> LinuxJones: installed in /usr/local/firefox32
[09:00] <drasko> gnomefreak, thanks for info, did it!
[09:00] <DarkJesus> Yes, you were
[09:00] <DarkJesus> I am Darkpope
[09:00] <gnomefreak> drasko: yw
[09:00] <dmbt> oh
[09:01] <dmbt> my irc client is being crappy
[09:01] <DarkJesus> Did you say something (I got disconnected and had to ghost DarkJesus)
[09:01] <dmbt> oh
[09:01] <dmbt> umm
[09:01] <t-thing> Hi. For some reason offlineimap seg faults randomly on average every 15 messages. Kinda hard to download my whole inbox. offlineimap makes it hard to debug it since the tk interface quits due to segfault so any debug parameter is useless. Any idea how to proceed on this?
[09:01] <LinuxJones> saquib, ok do sudo rm -Rf /usr/local/firefox32 and it will be gone
[09:01] <dmbt> DarkJesus: what was the last thing i said?
[09:01] <saquib> LinuxJones: ok.. whatever u tell me
[09:01] <DarkJesus> im not finished
[09:01] <DarkJesus> lol
[09:02] <dmbt> oh
[09:02] <dmbt> ok
[09:02] <DarkJesus> What did I miss?
[09:02] <dmbt> when your logged in, type in this command 'sudo adduser test'
[09:02] <dmbt> and then passwd test
[09:02] <DarkJesus> OK
[09:02] <tarun> this sounds lame but I removed the bind directory in /etc and reinstalled bind9 hoping it would be all there
[09:02] <dmbt> press crtl-alt-f7
[09:02] <dmbt> 	<dmbt>	and try to login with that
[09:02] <dmbt> 	<dmbt>	with the username test
[09:03] <dmbt> and see if that works
[09:03] <tarun> but I guess the default config files are not a part of the bind package
[09:03] <roryy> t-thing: maybe run it from the command line (start a terminal: accessories -> terminal).  Also, I think fetchmail might do imap; maybe that'll work better
[09:03] <LinuxJones> saquib, undo the changes in step #5
[09:03] <DarkJesus> OK, thanks
[09:05] <LinuxJones> saquib, rm -Rf /usr/local/java32
[09:05] <t-thing> roryy: I am running it from command line, no other output than the segmenation fault. From what I gather, offlineimap would be the best choice for me. Can fetchmail fetch to Maildir format to my homedir or do I have to use another program to do it?
[09:06] <roryy> t-thing: afaik fetchmail sends mail to you via the local mta (postfix in my case), so it ends up in /var/mail/$USER
[09:07] <LinuxJones> saquib, then fire up synaptic and search for firefox right click it and mark for re-installation click apply. I don't know if there are any java packages available new for the 64 bit version of FF now that java is available for download in Ubuntu ?
[09:07] <roryy> t-thing: i don't know if you can use procmail or something else to get that to Maildir, or if you can configure fetchmail to work in a different way.  fetchmail is very configurable, but i only use it in a simple manner.
[09:07] <saquib> LinuxJones: i removed that firefox32 folder
[09:07] <harrisonk> is firefox 1.5 or higher not avail for ubuntu?
[09:08] <roryy> !ff1.5
[09:08] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[09:08] <harrisonk> alrighty then
[09:08] <t-thing> roryy: yeah, I'd need to install and configure that if I take that route. I'll examine the situation bit futher and get back later. Thanks
[09:08] <saquib> LinuxJones: now ff32 wont work obviously, but the ff64 aint workin either... i cant see whats on that step 5
[09:09] <saquib> LinuxJones: basically i have no browsing capbility right now
[09:09] <LinuxJones> saquib, read up te other things I told you to do
[09:10] <saquib> LinuxJones: so u want me to to delete the java folder as well?
[09:10] <vmadmin> hey
[09:10] <Anonymusius> I'm back, I now have an network cart that Ubuntu sees but how do I configure it to network with an Computer? DHCP is that an router gives the computer his/her ip adresses and stuff. But if I want to connect my Ubuntu pc with my router thru an other computer do I then have to forward ports or something? Note that the computer I want to make contact woth the router thru is an winxp xomputer.
[09:10] <LinuxJones> saquib, yeah get rid of all that garbage
[09:10] <aLPHa_LeaK> g'day
[09:10] <vmadmin> whats the command line to get kernel headers
[09:11] <Polypterus> Anyone else know how I can open the inbox in Thunderbird through amsn?
[09:11] <saquib> LinuxJones: how do i get rid of the flas plugin? or it gone with the FF32 folder?
[09:11] <LinuxJones> vmadmin, apt-get install linux-headers-(uname -r)
[09:11] <LinuxJones> saquib, it's already gone
[09:11] <sparkleytone> Anonymusius: you aren't connecting the ubuntu pc straight to the router?
[09:12] <Anonymusius> no, I can't
[09:12] <godzirra> Hey guys... when I try to boot my linux box, grub startsup, and it goes through savedefault, boot, then "Uncompressing Linux..."  and then I get a CRC error and --system halted
[09:12] <Anonymusius> I have an usb wlan thingy and that has only support for windows
[09:13] <sparkleytone> Anonymusius: what do you mean?  a router doesn't care about OS
[09:13] <MilesTormani> Hey, can someone tell me why the EasyUbuntu install command is saying that packagelist-breezy.xml is missing?
[09:13] <Tuzlo> SAMBA question: I cant get samba to authenticate users, I tried smbpasswd but it fails to change the passwords. Do users have to be added to samba, its been so long I cant remember.
[09:13] <sparkleytone> MilesTormani: is it missing?
[09:13] <MilesTormani> Even though it clearly fetched in an earlier command?
[09:13] <MilesTormani> sparkley: That's the thing that's confusing. It /was/ fetched, but Search refuses to find it.
[09:13] <MilesTormani> Even with hidden files/folders as a parameter.
[09:13] <sparkleytone> hmmm
[09:14] <sparkleytone> what is echoed when you see it fetch?
[09:14] <MilesTormani> A    easyubuntu/branches/eudeb/packagelist-breezy.xml
[09:14] <Anonymusius> sparkleytone: No, the thing I use to connect to my wireless router is an usb thing that only has support for windows
[09:14] <LinuxJones> godzirra, you compiled your own kernel ?
[09:14] <godzirra> No.
[09:14] <sparkleytone> Anonymusius: what device is it?
[09:14] <godzirra> ITs all stock.  my system stopped working at some point while i wasnt paying attention to it
[09:14] <MilesTormani> Anonymusius: USB wireless networking doesn't work with Linux at this time, I believe.
[09:14] <godzirra> and when I rebooted it I couldnt get back in
[09:14] <dmbt> godzirra: has it worked in the past?
[09:14] <saquib> LinuxJones: i resintalled FF32... i think the downloaded packages were in my hard drive, didnt take tiem at all to downlaod them.. anwyays.. after reisntallation it still wont start
[09:15] <godzirra> Yes
[09:15] <andrejkw> Hey guys
[09:15] <saquib> LinuxJones: sorry i reisntakled FF64
[09:15] <dmbt> godzirra: are you able to test to see if a livecd works?
[09:15] <godzirra> its worked for 4 years
[09:15] <godzirra> It does not dmbt
[09:15] <Anonymusius> sparkleytone: Speedtouch alactel 120g
[09:15] <saquib> LinuxJones: damn im sacred
[09:15] <godzirra> It loads and then crashes with a "doublefalt" when it tries to load the devfs sstem
[09:15] <MilesTormani> Nevermind, it found it.
[09:15] <dmbt> godzirra: that seems like a cpu/memory problem
[09:15] <dmbt> does anything work?
[09:16] <dmbt> like, can you boot into any os right now?
[09:16] <LinuxJones> saquib, is it working for you now ?
[09:16] <|Sivik|> ok, i'm trying to reconfigure the xorg.conf, what is the command
[09:16] <godzirra> dmbt: that just  randomly started happening?
[09:16] <roryy> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:16] <andrejkw> Ubuntu is not letting me use 1152864 as a resolution, for some reason. I have already filled in my monitor's HorizSync and VertRefresh values correctly, and I even modified all Modes lines correctly, but 1152x864 is not showing up.
[09:16] <sparkleytone> Anonymusius: your router doesn't have ethernet ports?
[09:16] <chaos_of_apocaly> what GUI program can i use in linux like nero for windows?
[09:16] <dmbt> k3b
[09:16] <dmbt> i love k3b
[09:16] <chaos_of_apocaly> for gnome
[09:16] <dmbt> and you could also use nero for linux, but k3b is better
[09:17] <GazzaK> dmbt, k3b is great
[09:17] <Madpilot> chaos_of_apocaly, the file manager - Nautilus - does regular data CD burning nicely too.
[09:17] <sparkleytone> Anonymusius: http://linux.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.os.linux.networking/2004-10/0092.html
[09:17] <andrejkw> Anyone?
[09:17] <hastesaver> chaos_of_apocaly, gnomebaker (although you can use k3b on Gnome too)
[09:17] <MilesTormani> ...Okay, how do I make this file search in the actual easyubuntu/trunk/ folder instead of my home folder?
[09:17] <MilesTormani> cd again?
[09:17] <Anonymusius> Thanks!
[09:17] <sparkleytone> Anonymusius: you know how to use ndiswrapper and how to do the wifi dance in linux?
[09:18] <sparkleytone> Anonymusius: also, is your wifi network protected?
[09:18] <andrejkw> Ubuntu is not letting me use 1152864 as a resolution, for some reason. I have already filled in my monitor's HorizSync and VertRefresh values correctly, and I even modified all Modes lines correctly, but 1152x864 is not showing up.
[09:18] <saquib> LinuxJones: NO! i reinstalled.... it still wont start
[09:18] <MilesTormani> Got it working.
[09:18] <dmbt> andrejkw: why what does it show
[09:18] <joshua> uhhh
[09:18] <joshua> hello
[09:19] <andrejkw> dmbt: it only shows 640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768 in the Screen Resolution dialog.
[09:19] <roryy> joshua: welcome to #ubuntu
[09:19] <joshua> hey everyone, its my first time using ubuntu, and im not sure i know what im doing
[09:19] <andrejkw> dmbt: not even the GDM is using it.
[09:19] <eddiej> hi, what's the usb wifi support like in ubuntu these days? (without using ndiswrapper)
[09:19] <joshua> ive kinda been a slave to windows all my life
[09:19] <dmbt> did you try reconifugring x.org?
[09:20] <Madpilot> joshua, well, welcome to the light side, then. ;)
[09:20] <t-thing> roryy: Oright, I got it working. Python seg faulting did feel bit strange. So, reading the manual did reveal other user interfaces and when using TTY.TTYUI, the basic text output, it doesn't segfault. So, I guess the problem lies somewhere between the python and tk code. So, now it works and I'm happy.
[09:20] <dmbt> and entering in the resolution stuff yourself?
[09:20] <LinuxJones> saquib, rename your /home/.mozilla folder and try starting firefox again
[09:20] <andrejkw> dmbt: If I posted my xorg.conf on pastebin, could you take a look at it and tell me what I did wrong?
[09:20] <nickrud> andrejkw, grep -i default /var/log/Xorg.0.log will tell you all the modes available & their status
[09:20] <MilesTormani> Okay, what the heck. EasyUbuntu is attempting to remove ubuntu-desktop.
[09:20] <roryy> t-thing: huh, weird. i thought python's tk interface was pretty mature
[09:20] <joshua> thanks, truthfully i kinda like it cuz it seems sooo simple, not that i was confused by windows, just that it feels better getting away from all that
[09:21] <gnomefreak> MilesTormani: its ok
[09:21] <andrejkw> nickrud: doesn't show anything related to screen resolutions.
[09:21] <Madpilot> andrejkw, have you see the wiki page on fixing resolution?
[09:21] <acke> Hey, I did ./condfigure, to install an app. But it seems as if ubuntu doesnt have C compiler installed by default. or it is not added to PATH. So is there a compiler. and how do i add that to path? or do I need to install a compiler? and which should I choose then?
[09:21] <gnomefreak> MilesTormani: removing that doesnt do anything
[09:21] <MilesTormani> gnomefreak: Doesn't removing that disable my access to apt?
[09:21] <|Sivik|> !nvidia
[09:21] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[09:21] <gnomefreak> MilesTormani: no
[09:21] <MilesTormani> Oh, okay. Thanks.
[09:21] <gnomefreak> !ubuntu-desktop
[09:21] <ubotu> it has been said that ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading
[09:21] <saquib> LinuxJones: how do i rename? and what do i rename it to?
[09:21] <LinuxJones> t-thing, tk yuck
[09:21] <joshua> now maybe someone can help me out i am trying to upgrade my firefox
[09:21] <dmbt> acke: yes
[09:21] <joshua> and somehow i cannot
[09:21] <nickrud> andrejkw, I get a couple screens of lines like -> (**) NV(0):  Default mode "1152x864": 121.5 MHz, 77.5 kHz, 85.1 Hz
[09:21] <LinuxJones> saquib, rename it to anything like .mozilla-old
[09:21] <dmbt> you need to install build-essential
[09:21] <hastesaver> andrejkw, have you tried everything in http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto ?
[09:21] <UltraMagnus_> hi, can anyone tell me what would be considered the minimum system requirements to run dapper?
[09:21] <andrejkw> Madpilot: I already set up everything correctly, I filled in my Monitor's values, but it's not eltting me higher than 1024x768.
[09:22] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell andrejkw about fixres
[09:22] <acke> dmbt thanks
[09:22] <t-thing> roryy: well, it could be mature but maybe offlineimap calls it with wrong parameters for some odd reason.
[09:22] <Madpilot> andrejkw, that URL might help
[09:22] <gnomefreak> joshua: did you read the wiki and follow it lkine by line?
[09:22] <dmbt> acke: also, depending on what you compile, your going to need a lot of dev libs installed
[09:22] <joshua> hmmm....good question
[09:22] <MilesTormani> Also, I got this error: W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://wine.sourceforge.net binary/ Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/wine.sourceforge.net_apt_binary_Packages)
[09:22] <dmbt> what are you trying to install acke ?
[09:22] <roryy> t-thing: well, as you said, python segfaulting is a bit weird ;). anyway, at least it worked in the end
[09:22] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell joshua -about ff1.5
[09:22] <acke> dmbt dvd ripper
[09:22] <MilesTormani> Does that just mean I had the file already?
[09:22] <gnomefreak> joshua: your pm has teh link
[09:22] <eddiej> hi, is there any native support for usb wifi adaptors in dapper?
[09:23] <dmbt> acke: is in not in any apt repositories or you can't find any binary .debs?
[09:23] <UltraMagnus_> hi, can anyone tell me what would be considered the minimum system requirements to run dapper?
[09:23] <nickrud> MilesTormani, you have two or more lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list that point at the same repository, you can remove one
[09:23] <nxv_> hi, which to do i use to convet my digicams avi to mpeg4 or divx?
[09:23] <MilesTormani> nickrud: Otherwise, it's fine?
[09:23] <hastesaver> nxv_, mencoder or transcode. If you want a GUI, acidrip or gtranscode.
[09:23] <acke> dmbt nothing in add application, and synaptic doesnt work at all
[09:23] <gnomefreak> UltraMagnus_: same as 5.10 it all depends on what type of install you want
[09:24] <dmbt> acke: synaptic doesn't work?
[09:24] <nickrud> MilesTormani, I vaguely remember having that message and having something not right, but it's hazy.
[09:24] <dmbt> what does it say?
[09:24] <acke> dmbt no
[09:24] <joshua> awsome i am going to read this now
[09:24] <gnomefreak> brb
[09:24] <acke> dmbt for each application im trying to install. it says it has broken dependencies
[09:24] <dmbt> acke: you have to fix that
[09:24] <dmbt> then
[09:24] <UltraMagnus_> gnomefreak: so, like 3gb hard drive, and 128mb of ram? but, will anything be usable on a desktop install with those specs?
[09:24] <dmbt> or your going to have problems in the long run
[09:24] <saquib> LinuxJones: still not starting
[09:24] <UltraMagnus_> gnomefreak: and what sorta processor?
[09:24] <acke> dmbt i just installed the ubuntu system. and i dont really know very mych about linux.
[09:24] <t-thing> roryy: yeah, I'm glad it did. Having postfix and procmail running for this seems bit excessive.
[09:25] <dmbt> acke: go into synaptic
[09:25] <saquib> LinuxJones: i renamed that folder.. when i started fiefox again, a new one was created on that name...
[09:25] <nxv_> hastesaver: gui sounds good :) what is better at the moment (quality to size balance) mpg4 or divx?
[09:25] <acke> dmbt So, im trying to learn the ez things to get things done. before going for the more hardcore stuff
[09:25] <dmbt> and goto  edit => fix broken packages
[09:25] <saquib> LinuxJones: forefox wont start
[09:25] <dmbt> compiling is kind of hardcore
[09:25] <dmbt> its always easier to avoid compiling if you don't have to for most things
[09:25] <acke> dmbt , upps. im running easyubuntu. so i cant run synaptic right now. :/
[09:26] <nnn0> asm is hardcore :D
[09:26] <Logos> Hello!!
[09:26] <njan> writing a compiler is hardcore.
[09:26] <MilesTormani> That's because EasyUbuntu is using Synaptic to get the files.
[09:26] <nnn0> :D
[09:26] <njan> :P
[09:26] <nnn0> in asm !
[09:26] <acke> dmbt i tried that. and it says no broken dependencies
[09:26] <dmbt> well, you just have to wait a little bit then :)
[09:26] <LinuxJones> saquib, well the only thing left to do is right click firefox in synaptic and mark for complete removal. Click apply.
[09:27] <dmbt> acke: when does it say broken dependencies, when you try to install something from synaptic?
[09:27] <saquib> LinuxJones: i actually already tried that too
[09:27] <rendo> I just used the thunderbird1.5 script from the ubuntuforums, and thunderbird won't open up but it says it's installed.... Any suggestions?
[09:27] <saquib> then installed again
[09:27] <njan> nnn0, ASM is for beginners, I wrote my compiler in binary on an altair and used it to compile the second compiler I wrote :P
[09:27] <joshua> quick question
[09:27] <cjones> whats a good program to use to rip cd's to mp3 ?
[09:27] <nnn0> :DDD
[09:27] <joshua> when it asks me to type in a directory
[09:27] <njan> nnn0, ... and I were lucky! :P
[09:27] <joshua> where do i type it in?
[09:27] <acke> dmbt yes
[09:27] <nnn0> ehehe
[09:28] <gnomefreak> joshua: follow the commands as they are written
[09:28] <vmadmin> LinuxJones: mykernel is 2.6.12-10-686-smp
[09:28] <stpere> cjones, sound juicer
[09:28] <dmbt> acke: what error does it print out?
[09:28] <stpere> cjones, hrm.. ogg only apparently tho
[09:28] <gnomefreak> joshua: the commands are pretty much written to paste into terminal
[09:28] <cjones> stpere can you apt -get install that ?
[09:28] <dmbt> acke: paste it to pastebin
[09:28] <LinuxJones> saquib, have you done a system update/upgrade recently ?
[09:28] <dmbt> and ill tell you how to fix it
[09:28] <rendo> Is there a reason why it doesn't work?
[09:28] <saquib> LinuxJones: yeah
[09:29] <joshua> yeah yeah
[09:29] <joshua> cool
[09:29] <Ademan> in ubuntu the largest resolution for my laptop appears to be 1024x768 (which is absolute BS, under windows i had it up at 19XX x 1XXX
[09:29] <joshua> i likes
[09:29] <hastesaver> nxv_, no idea, but I'd guess XviD/DivX. You can get a general idea from http://www.doom9.org/codec-comparisons.htm , maybe
[09:29] <Ademan> is there a way to get those higher resolutions i want?
[09:29] <stpere> cjones, it's included with ubuntu-desktop
[09:29] <UltraMagnus_> what sort of system specs does ubuntu require to be usable? i mean, it doesnt say anything about the processor speed in requirements, but i doubt it would be very useable on a 286......
[09:29] <nxv_> hastesaver: txh for the link
[09:29] <gnomefreak> UltraMagnus_: what type of install would you like to do?
[09:29] <dmbt> UltraMagnus_: ubuntu works with a 386+
[09:29] <dmbt> not a 286
[09:30] <UltraMagnus_> dmbt: but, how well..... could you run firefox? for instance
[09:30] <gnomefreak> dmbt: afaik it will run on 286 just very badly
[09:30] <andrejkw> Ok
[09:30] <andrejkw> I don't know
[09:30] <dmbt> gnomefreak: i don't think so
[09:30] <andrejkw> I have evrythign set up correctly
[09:30] <dmbt> gnomefreak: kernel is built for a 386
[09:30] <saquib> LinuxJones: so i need to remve and install Ubuntu again???
[09:30] <andrejkw> But no matter what, it's not letting me above 1024x768
[09:30] <HunterZ> re
[09:30] <gnomefreak> dmbt: cant really go by that
[09:30] <nnn0> on a 286 i guess you need to use an elder kernal
[09:30] <acke> dmbt, now it said, (in swedish) that i couldnt find packages on the ubuntu cd.. ill but the cd in. 1 sek
[09:31] <dmbt> hmm
[09:31] <nickrud> andrejkw, could you post your /etc/X11/org.conf & /var/log/Xorg.0.conf on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[09:31] <dmbt> i don't know sweedit
[09:31] <gnomefreak> dmbt: if you went by that than they would have kernels for 1.6 gig
[09:31] <gnomefreak> not stop at 686
[09:31] <rendo> I just used the thunderbird1.5 script from the ubuntuforums, and thunderbird won't open up but it says it's installed.... Any suggestions?
[09:31] <dmbt> well i thought i remember 286 couldn't change from real mode or something
[09:32] <LinuxJones> vmadmin, apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.12-10-686
[09:32] <andrejkw> AHA
[09:32] <andrejkw> LOL
[09:32] <|Sivik|> !nvidia
[09:32] <ubotu> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[09:32] <andrejkw> I figured it out
[09:32] <dmbt> which linux needs
[09:32] <andrejkw> instead of a x, i put  inside xorg.conf
[09:32] <nickrud> heh
[09:32] <nnn0> :D
[09:32] <vmadmin> LinuxJones what about the -smp at the end?
[09:32] <gnomefreak> dmbt: ubuntu may need it but than again server install should run on a 286 (i said should) i dont use anything that slow
[09:32] <LinuxJones> vmadmin, no
[09:33] <ditso> can somebody help installing my wlan?
[09:33] <vmadmin> LinuxJones: ok thanks
[09:33] <dmbt> gnomefreak: i'm talking about booting the kernel
[09:33] <LinuxJones> vmadmin, the -smp is just a configuration option in the kernel itself the version is the same
[09:33] <dmbt> it requires you you to switch out of real mode
[09:33] <nnn0> andrejkw, after "i put" i get something that resembles a spanish character and them four small numbers in a square :)
[09:33] <dmbt> ubuntu can't run on real mode
[09:33] <gnomefreak> dmbt: are you in offtopic?
[09:33] <MilesTormani> Restarting mIRC.
[09:33] <gnomefreak> dmbt: someone ran ubuntu on a 233
[09:34] <LinuxJones> saquib, I don't think a re-installation of Ubuntu is necessary but I don't know what else to tell you.
[09:34] <acke> dmbt where did you want the error mess? private message okay?
[09:34] <jpotex> Im a bit curious about the support for a VIA chipset in the new Dapper Drake. Does it support VIA VT8237 chipset now? Its a raid chipset that made it impossible to install Ubuntu before
[09:34] <dmbt> gnomefreak: are you talking about proc speed, or proc architecture?
[09:34] <rendo> I just used the thunderbird1.5 script from the ubuntuforums, and thunderbird won't open up but it says it's installed.... Any suggestions?
[09:34] <dmbt> i think were talking about the wrong things
[09:34] <gnomefreak> dmbt: speed
[09:34] <dmbt> oh, thats why :_
[09:34] <dmbt> i was talking about proccesor architectures
[09:35] <nnn0> if i had a 286 i would probably not use ubuntu, but try to find a linux distro which was made espasially for older puters
[09:35] <gnomefreak> the arch kind of determines the speed hence a p2 at 450mhz
[09:35] <nnn0> like vectorlinux or something
[09:35] <gnomefreak> nnn0: agreed also dsl
[09:35] <ditso> can someone help me installing my wlan?
[09:35] <mjr> nnn0, linux doesn't run at all on 286 (the elks derivative might)
[09:35] <dmbt> acke: yes
[09:35] <nnn0> ah k
[09:35] <nnn0> :)
[09:35] <dmbt> mjr: there has been a porting job to port linux to the 286
[09:36] <acke> dmbt i have this error: W: Couldn't stat source package list cdrom://Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release.......**

[09:36] <Kr0ntab> ditso, you using wep, wpa, or open
[09:36] <rendo> I know what you mean jpotex....
[09:36] <acke> dmbt, that is when i first start synaptic

[09:37] <nnn0> i am
[09:37] <blank_> Ademan, #ubuntu+1
[09:37] <gnomefreak> Ademan: join #ubuntu+!
[09:37] <nnn0> kind of
[09:37] <gnomefreak> ubuntu+1
[09:37] <jpotex> render: About the chipset?
[09:37] <andrejkw> there we go :)
[09:37] <D1> gnomefreak: do you know if theres a way or option to "open links in new tab" type of thing? I hate clicking the middle button
[09:37] <gnomefreak> hold on a sec let me pull it up
[09:37] <nnn0> i'm on SimplyMEPIS 6.0 beta 3 which use the dapper pool
[09:37] <pipistrello> hi
[09:37] <andrejkw> I have a question.
[09:37] <rendo> jpotex Just in general, no one seems to be helpful today.... even with simple issues.
[09:37] <Ademan> It was just curiosity, i'm having no problems with it, i was just wondering about stability
[09:37] <Madpilot> D1, rightclick, select "Open in New Tab" should work - or middle-click
[09:37] <ditso> i'm using open
[09:38] <Cartman> hello?
[09:38] <ditso> no key
[09:38] <jpotex> rendo: This isn't a simple issue though.
[09:38] <D1> Madpilot: yeah, but I want it how firefox does it. just clicking at it would be nice.
[09:38] <andrejkw> Whenever I make the bottom panel higher than 24, the speaker icon turns into this weird speaker icon, is there a way to prevent this from happening?
[09:38] <cjones> sound juicer is only doing 4.5x is there a way to speed it up ?
[09:38] <Cartman> Sorry to interupt but Can ubuntu be used as a live CD?
[09:38] <mattt> hey, how long will 5.10 be supported?  i have just installed it on my laptop.
[09:38] <UltraMagnus_> ademan: well, i was hopefully going to get atleast a 300-500mhz processor, with hopefully atleast 128mb of ram, depends what i can get off ebay, heh
[09:38] <Cartman> Sorry to interupt but Can ubuntu be used as a live CD?
[09:38] <dmbt> Cartman: the livecd can
[09:38] <rendo> jpotex: I said even with simple issues, mine's pretty straightforward and it's probably something basic I'm missing, and I've asked 4 times with no responses.
[09:38] <Cartman> Im talking about run inside windows
[09:38] <Cartman> without having to restart
[09:38] <andrejkw> Whenever I make the bottom panel higher than 24, the speaker icon turns into this weird speaker icon, is there a way to prevent this from happening?
[09:38] <UltraMagnus_> ademan: cant respond to the PM for some reason, not registered or somthing
[09:39] <poimen> somoen knows a internet site that is paying for translations or something? I need to make $300  a month and no job around here??
[09:39] <cjones> cartman yes theres a live cd but in dapper the live cd can also install
[09:39] <Cartman> to the HDD?
[09:39] <Pimpshizzled> Cartman, go to the ubuntu website, a live cd is avalible for download
[09:39] <gnomefreak> D1: not sure other than file>newtab
[09:39] <Cartman> without majorly affecting windows?
[09:39] <Ademan> UltraMagnus_: are you using Trillian? i used to have that problem
[09:39] <acke> Madpilot ty
[09:39] <D1> ok, thanks.
[09:39] <UltraMagnus_> Ademan: no, im using chatzilla
[09:39] <gnomefreak> its not my default so im not sure
[09:39] <vmadmin> LinuxJones does loop-aes-source come from apt-get command?
[09:39] <Cartman> Well Ill try the Live CD approch
[09:39] <Kr0ntab> ditso, then just use the network-admin tool, enable your wireless interface card... and configure it without a WEP key.
[09:39] <gil> how do i play tracks on xxmms with no gap/break between tracks
[09:39] <Cartman> thanks guys
[09:40] <rendo> I just used the thunderbird1.5 script from the ubuntuforums, and thunderbird won't open up but it says it's installed.... Any suggestions?
[09:40] <Blissex> gil: #XMMS or #ZINF probably
[09:40] <acke> So now i got this problem again: gxmms:
[09:40] <acke>  Depends: libglib1.2 (>=1.2.0) but it is not installable
[09:40] <acke>  Depends: libgtk1.2 (>=1.2.10-4) but it is not installable
[09:40] <acke>  Depends: xmms (>=1.2.10+cvs20050209) but it is not installable
[09:40] <cjones> cartman yes you just put in the cd and reboot as long as you have boot from cd enabeled in bios
[09:40] <gnomefreak> acke: dont paste in here
[09:40] <UltraMagnus_> ademan: would i need to change the shell if i got a 500mhz processor then? because i would like to have all the graphical features if at all possible
[09:40] <acke> gnomefreak sry, where to paste_
[09:40] <ditso> yeah but have to install drivers first not?
[09:40] <Ademan> ah, oh well, regardless, i think you should be fine, but if you stick around... talk to zcat[1]  he was the one with the 500 mhz proccessor, he wasnt complaining at all, but you might wanna talk to him a bit more about if i could get a monitor, i was gonna put it on my spare 300 mhz comp too...
[09:40] <gnomefreak> !pastebin
[09:40] <ditso> with ndiswrapper?
[09:40] <ubotu> it has been said that pastebin is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[09:40] <Terminus> !paste
[09:40] <ubotu> Please don't flood the channel! For best results use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and tell people the URL
[09:40] <gnomefreak> acke: ^^^
[09:40] <andrejkw> Is there anything similar to Widgets for Ubuntu?
[09:40] <acke> gnomefreak o.O
[09:41] <bolsh> Hi

[09:41] <Madpilot> andrejkw, there's gdesklets
[09:41] <acke> gnomefreak priv mess is disabled for unregisted users.. :(
[09:41] <bolsh> I need a JVM for Breezy on PPC to declare my taxes online, and Sun's won't work (ix86 or AMD64 only for Linux)
[09:41] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell andrejkw about gdesklets
[09:41] <gnomefreak> acke: yes it is
[09:41] <aLPHa_LeaK> andrejkw, gdesklets
[09:41] <Kr0ntab> ditso, you need to register with nickserv to PM.  go to #kr0ntab
[09:41] <bolsh> Is there an alternative (with browser plug-in, of course)?
[09:41] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell acke about register
[09:42] <acke> gnomefreak aaah http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[09:42] <acke> got it
[09:42] <bolsh> Proprietary isn't a huge issue, if it makes it work
[09:42] <Terminus> bolsh: not sure but you might want to check if blackdown will work on ppc.
[09:42] <gnomefreak> acke: breezy?
[09:42] <bolsh> Terminus: Mmm

[09:42] <Brander> Hi Have a newbie question:  when Im in a konsole terminal and I browse a man page I can see the the manual information alright but how do I "get out" of the man page? I press down arrow or space until Im in the end of the info but it says eg line 54/70 end and no matter what I press I get no furhter.. what should I press?
[09:42] <acke> gnomefreak ??? i dont know, i just installed a cd i got
[09:42] <erik_> Hi! I am trying to set up an ubuntu NFS server-  After I do "apt-get install nfs-kernel-server nfs-common portmap", and then I do "dpkg-reconfigure portmap" "rpcinfo -p" only shows portmapper and status- And I believe portmap, nfs, and mountd should ALL show up- How do I get portmap, nfs, and mountd to all run?
[09:42] <a33> hi there, i have kubuntu 5.10, how do i configure adsl ?
[09:42] <Madpilot> Brander, "q" to get out of man pages
[09:43] <a33> other linux has adsl-setup
[09:43] <gnomefreak> acke: what does uname -r say whe you type it in terminal?
[09:43] <a33> have..
[09:43] <Brander> works! great thnx!!
[09:43] <Blissex> erik_: check out 'man update-rc.d'
[09:43] <gnomefreak> acke: is this you gostvie
[09:43] <bolsh> I guess since PPC is 3% of the desktop market, and Linux on PPC is less than 1% of that, no-one cares about us :(
[09:43] <erik_> Ok
[09:43] <acke> gnomefreak, 2.6.12-9-386
[09:43] <bolsh> I don't want to reboot into OSX
[09:43] <acke> gnomefreak what is gostvie??
[09:43] <gnomefreak> acke: ok
[09:43] <bolsh> (I might not come back ;-)
[09:43] <don> I just ran the Automatix and now my Mozilla won't run.  Linux newbie.
[09:43] <Blissex> bolsh: big surprise soon...
[09:44] <gnomefreak> acke: i dont see a paste here
[09:44] <gnomefreak> from you
[09:44] <bolsh> Blissex: ?
[09:44] <Terminus> bolsh: i've been reading the releases and apparently, there was a ppc release for j2se 1.3 around 2002
[09:44] <Blissex> bolsh: PLAYSTATION/3 is PPC and it will run Linux.
[09:44] <acke> gnomefreak, ?? huum do you mean my error message from synaptic__
[09:44] <bolsh> Terminus: PPC Linux, or PPC OSX?
[09:44] <dmbt> can you boot macosx on a playstation 3?
[09:44] <a33> i have kubuntu 5.10, how do i configure adsl ?
[09:44] <bolsh> Blissex: Wow. That's big news
[09:44] <Blissex> dmbt: no.
[09:44] <UltraMagnus_> Blissex: no it only uses EXT3, it doesnt run linux
[09:44] <osotogari> anyone know if there is a keyboard shortcut to change to a different workspace?
[09:44] <Blissex> UltraMagnus_: it does, it does...
[09:45] <Terminus> bolsh: i guess ppc linux. aren't you supposed to get osx java from apple directly?
[09:45] <gnomefreak> acke: when you opent hte pastebin link paste what you need to in the white part and type your name in where says name than click send and give me the link it takesyou to
[09:45] <Blissex> UltraMagnus_: not for running games though.
[09:45] <acke> gnomefreak, aaah. i forgot about that.
[09:45] <dbcalo> im installing ubuntu 5.10 currently and was reading the next version will be released soon. is it safe to assume that i can download the next disc and upgrade directly with that -- no format involved?
[09:45] <cjones> whats the right syntext for apt get install grip ?
[09:45] <UltraMagnus_> Blissex: holy cow, im getting one as soon as its released, thats alot of power for the price
[09:45] <gnomefreak> acke: no i need your sources.list you can open it by typing gksudo "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[09:45] <Madpilot> cjones, probably "sudo apt-get install grip"
[09:45] <Blissex> UltraMagnus_: waiting here too... :-)
[09:46] <Terminus> bolsh: from their website, j2se/re 1.5.x for linux status: Blackdown is working on Java 1.5 for x86, AMD64, SPARC and PPC architectures.
[09:46] <cjones> madpilot thank you
[09:46] <UltraMagnus_> Blissex: what sorta linux?
[09:46] <Blissex> UltraMagnus_: I think Fedora...
[09:46] <homanj> is setting up a 5 button mouse for Dapper different than that wiki?
[09:46] <Spliffster> hi, i have problems installing 5.10/6.06 from cd. it boots from cd, loads data from cd and suddenly reading from cdrom fails
[09:46] <erik_> Blissex- What do runlevels have to do with NFS? Im sorry- I am a linux n0ob.. And I am confused
[09:46] <UltraMagnus_> Blissex: hopefully it will have the nvidia drivers prinstalled......
[09:47] <a33> hi there, how do i configure adsl ? (in other linuxes there is adsl-setup)
[09:47] <UltraMagnus_> Blissex: and be able to make use of that 8 core processor
[09:47] <Blissex> UltraMagnus_: bolsh: the full GCC/etc toolchain has already been released by IBM for the Cell.
[09:47] <dbcalo> just so i've got this straight, linux-ntfs is isn't so great but windows can use ext2 well?
[09:47] <_darksoul> i have a kubuntu desktop, my computer uses 25% of my cpu when idle... and my cpu is 2.5ghz, any ideas on what the problem is?
[09:47] <Blissex> erik_: you need to start the NFS server too...
[09:47] <acke> gnomefreak, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14348
[09:48] <Spliffster> i have problems installing 5.10/6.06 from cd. it boots from cd, loads data from cd and suddenly reading from cdrom fails
[09:48] <bolsh> OK - I'm installing Kaffe + eclipse
[09:48] <erik_> Erm.. NFS server is started how?
[09:48] <hasan|away> Spliffster did you do a check sum?
[09:48] <Blissex> erik_: /etc/init.d/nfsd start
[09:48] <acke> dmbt, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14348 there is my problem with synaptic if you have time for a look
[09:48] <bolsh> I figure that one of the two (Eclipse uses the gcj runtime + classpath) should be good enough
[09:48] <Spliffster> yup
[09:48] <gnomefreak> acke: i need the sources.list file first
[09:48] <bolsh> But that sucks rocks
[09:48] <acke> okay
[09:48] <dmbt> acke: ic
[09:48] <bolsh> Reason not tolike binary packages
[09:49] <gnomefreak> acke: it doesnt look like universe adn multiverse are enabled
[09:49] <Blissex> from the Wikipedia entry on PS/3: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_3#Interface_and_operating_system
[09:49] <osotogari> i just installed KDE for a look using apt-get can i uninstall it just by using apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop?
[09:49] <Spliffster> somehow the cdrom cannot be accessed after seom time installing (while loading installer components).
[09:49] <Prohibited> Hey guys, some guy helped me set up an IRC server.. well, I'm sort of wondering if someone could check over my config files... (Anope & Unrealircd)... Me and one of my mods think he helped because he wanted to use it for his "Zombies" for his botnets.. (he's usually not a nice guy, and is known as a 'hacker').. Anyone willing to check over them?
[09:50] <gnomefreak> Prohibited: not in here please try in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:50] <Prohibited> ok, thanks gnomefreak.
[09:50] <rendo> Can anyone help me regarding ThunderBird 1.5 on Breezy?  I ran the script and it installed but it won't open,  I tried following the wiki and I can get it to run with sudo -H thunderbird, but that's it, nothing else works.  Is there anyone that knows why it won't work?  It would be greatly appreciated since this has plagued me for 2 days nw.
[09:50] <acke> gnomefreak http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14349
[09:51] <erik_> Blissex- /etc/init.d/nfsd start does nothing. File not found. I have nfs-kernel-server installed....
[09:51] <Blissex> erik_: it will have a similar file, can't remember the name.
[09:51] <erik_> k
[09:51] <erik_> Ill go look..
[09:51] <Blissex> erik_: check with 'dpkg -L nfs-kernel-server | grep init'
[09:52] <gnomefreak> acke: you have no repos enabled
[09:52] <gnomefreak> acke: is the file still open?
[09:52] <gnomefreak> acke: i will give you the line #'s and you follow my instructions shouldnt take more than a min or 2
[09:53] <dbcalo> what do you guys think of enlightenment?
[09:53] <Terminus> bolsh: quite old but maybe it'll work. --> ftp://ftp.uk.linux.org/pub/linux/java/JDK-1.3.1/ppc/FCS-02c/
[09:53] <Lormor> hi, someone knows how to contact the guys who do the " shipping " ?
[09:53] <acke> gnomefreak okay
[09:54] <acke> i enabled the universe
[09:54] <gnomefreak> acke: take the # away from all the lines that start with the word deb EXCEPT the cdrom repo and where you see the line end in universe put a space than type multiverse
[09:54] <Lormor> cause I got this proposition, to add Ubuntu Stickers in the pack ...
[09:54] <nickrud> dbcalo, a lovely niche product.
[09:54] <ult1mate> how can i search for new hardware under ubuntu?
[09:54] <gnomefreak> acke: but you dont have main enabled that leave universe usless
[09:55] <acke> okay
[09:55] <dbcalo> between these two which one is better: xfce vs. enlightenment
[09:55] <gnomefreak> acke: that done?
[09:55] <rendo> Well I guess another day has gone by where I am ignored in #ubuntu
[09:55] <rendo> Thanks for all the help!
[09:55] <gnomefreak> acke: all # are away from the word deb at beginning of each line except the very first?
[09:55] <nickrud> dbcalo, off topic, but they're equivalently useful to their users
[09:55] <weazzle> enlightenment is complicated
[09:55] <nickrud> rendo, what issue?
[09:55] <Spliffster> help, what can i do if my cdrom-drive is not detected ?
[09:56] <rendo> Thunderbird 1.5 script, it installs but I can't run thunderbird in breezy
[09:56] <dbcalo> how so weazzle?
[09:56] <weazzle> dbcalo: I don't get how the desktops work. I like xfce better. However, I think the best is AfterStep.
[09:57] <rendo> And if I try apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird it says something about maxdepth with the chrome registry.... I tried looking on the ubuntu forums and there's nothing about it. :/
[09:57] <acke> all the lines that start with deb is enabled
[09:57] <dbcalo> haven't hread of that one.
[09:57] <acke> gnomefreak removed # on lines starting with #
[09:57] <gnomefreak> acke: leave the # infron tof the very first line?
[09:57] <nickrud> rendo, the page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThunderbirdNewVersion has instructions for setting up thunderbird properly for breezy
[09:57] <acke> gnomefreak eysh
[09:57] <weazzle> it is pretty sweet
[09:57] <gnomefreak> acke: the comments still have the # there right?
[09:58] <acke> gnomefreak still commented away
[09:58] <weazzle> however, for ease of use, xfce is probably the best
[09:58] <nickrud> render, arg, it's changed, why is it saying dapper?!!
[09:58] <acke> gnomefreak no cd avilible
[09:58] <gnomefreak> acke: ok now add the word multiverse to the lines ending in universe
[09:58] <rendo> I'll try it, but I think I tried this yesterday and it didn't work. :/
[09:58] <gnomefreak> acke: <space>multiverse  <space> is the spacebar
[09:59] <gnomefreak> nickrud: what changed?
[09:59] <erik_> Blissex- I get /etc/exports:3 syntax error : bad option list
[09:59] <rendo> Err, ya I just tried this today actually, I can only run it as a root though, while before I could just click on the icon and it would load up. :/
[09:59] <acke> gnomefreak done
[09:59] <gnomefreak> acke: let me know when done
[09:59] <weazzle> xfce is very easy to configure
[09:59] <Blissex> erik_: you got to edit it until it is gone.
[09:59] <acke> gnomefreak done added multiverse
[09:59] <nickrud> rendo, false alarm :) Start with the next section :) I tried that page a while ago to test thunderbird under breezy, worked for me. Of course, I hate thunderbird
[09:59] <gnomefreak> acke: ok now click save and close it
[09:59] <TobiasFar> hi, how do i remove all icons from the desktop? including the mounted drives?
[09:59] <weazzle> all drag and drop
[09:59] <Lormor> hi, someone knows how to contact the guys who do the " shipping " ? Caus I wan't to include the ubuntu stickers in the package ;)
[09:59] <gnomefreak> acke: now open termninal and type sudo apt-get update
[10:00] <Blissex> erik_: 'man 5 exports' :-)
[10:00] <dbcalo> i don't know about this afterstep thing. the over all look reminds me of the 80's.
[10:00] <rendo> I swear, I've done all of that and none of it works.
[10:00] <nxv_> converting video file
[10:00] <gnomefreak> Lormor: they wont be doing that this time around and i think there is an email on the shipit site
[10:00] <nxv_> i tried this: ffmpeg -i DSCF1200.AVI -vcodec mpeg4 output.mp4
[10:00] <rendo> The script doesn't work for me... Well it does, but when I click on the icons they won't load up they just sit there and do nothing.
[10:00] <nxv_> but it says: maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height
[10:01] <Polypterus> I've got an external harddrive which I can access perfectly. The icon is located at the desktop. How can I move this icon from the desktop to the panel? I'm using Breezy & Gnome.
[10:01] <nxv_> i already removed all parameter that might conflict. so what should i do now?
[10:01] <weazzle> afterstep is all about productivity
[10:01] <hastesaver> nxv_, You'll have to read up the mencoder documentation for that, I guess. You can try the GUI (acidrip), maybe it's easier to use
[10:01] <Vanquisher> DCC SEND "string" 0 0 0
[10:01] <weazzle> it is not the easiest to learn
[10:02] <soundray> Polypterus, drag it from the Places menu to the panel.
[10:03] <Polypterus> soundray: Ah, perfect! And easy! Thanks mate :)
[10:03] <DShepherd> how can I make the ubuntu live cd boot with no gui?
[10:03] <acke> gnomefreak http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14351
[10:03] <Polypterus> soundray: Is it safe to remove it from the desktop then?
[10:03] <nickrud> rendo, there's no script on that page, it's step by step instructions about what to enter into a terminal.
[10:03] <acke> gnomefreak new version
[10:03] <vio> DShepherd, when you start your computer and the boot menu appears, press f1 or f2 for more options
[10:03] <vio> there you'll find your answer :)
[10:03] <BearPerson> note, If you are affected by that bug, I believe you can get by it by connecting to freenode on port 8001
[10:04] <gnomefreak> acke: sudo apt-get update
[10:04] <soundray> Polypterus: I'm not sure -- I don't think you can...
[10:04] <DShepherd> vio: i did.. i guess i didnt see
[10:04] <Polypterus> soundray: Ok, thanks.
[10:04] <Madpilot> gnomefreak, next D C C exploit like that, ban as well as kick.
[10:05] <gnomefreak> Madpilot: i did
[10:05] <soundray> Madpilot: he did
[10:05] <gnomefreak> i banned first removed sec
[10:05] <Madpilot> ah, sorry - missed it half a dozen lines above the kick.
[10:06] <poimen> someone using XGL/Gnome/Ubuntu on ati?
[10:06] <rendo> Doesn't work nickrud. :@
[10:06] <rendo> It does the exact same crap it has been the last 2 days.  I input the command in terminal to run it, and it just sits there.
[10:06] <mwe> !xgl
[10:06] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[10:06] <acke> I need name of avi player
[10:07] <bolsh> acke: totem, for example?
[10:07] <nickrud> rendo, where did you install thunderbird to?
[10:07] <acke> anotherone with x something
[10:07] <acke> i think
[10:07] <acke> xine!!!
[10:07] <acke> lool
[10:08] <rendo> Okay, n/m it works if I run sudo -H thunderbird, but I want it running from the launcher since it's easier to use, how do I edit the launcher file to do that?
[10:08] <chip42> how can i identify what package a file belongs to?
[10:08] <bolsh> sucks
[10:08] <bolsh> gcj plug-in doesn't work
[10:08] <Madpilot> rendo, if you have to run thunderbird w/ sudo, there's something wrong with your install
[10:09] <soundray> chip42: dpkg -S filename
[10:09] <rendo> No crap, it's been like that the last 2 days
[10:09] <rendo> And I haven't a damn clue.
[10:09] <soundray> rendo, language
[10:09] <rendo> English?
[10:09] <prg2020> Question:  apt-get is having trouble updating a firefox component.  trying install -f doesn't fix it.  What is the best thing to do?
[10:09] <soundray> !tell rendo about language
[10:09] <mwe> rendo: you shouldn't need to run thunderbird with root privileges
[10:09] <gnomefreak> !tb1.5
[10:09] <ubotu> it has been said that tb1.5 is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThunderbirdNewVersion
[10:10] <rendo> That doesn't work.
[10:10] <gnomefreak> rendo: why not what about it doesnt work?
[10:10] <rendo> Yea well, I don't know why, I've followed God knows how many walkthroughs for it.
[10:10] <chip42> soundray: thanks.
[10:10] <soundray> prg2020: could you post the full error on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org pls
[10:10] <charles> Does anyone know how to force a vertical refresh
[10:10] <rendo> It works, but I have to run it with sudo, and apparently that's wrong.
[10:11] <soundray> chip42, also check out apt-file -- it does the same thing for files in packages that aren't even installed.
[10:11] <charles> I know the spec range of this monitor
[10:11] <soundray> charles: with a modeline.
[10:12] <mwe> charles: make sure the specs are correct in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:12] <Madpilot> rendo, Ubuntu 6.06 will have tbird 1.5.x, and it's due out in less than two weeks - why not just wait and upgrade the whole thing the standard way?
[10:12] <prg2020> soundray:  Okay, it should be posted.  Have a look.
[10:12] <DShepherd> vio: does f1 or f2 work for dapper live beta 2?
[10:13] <rendo> I'm going to, I'll just have the launcher link run sudo -H thunderbird until Dapper is officially out.  Last time I updated to dapper I had a lot of problems and grub didn't install properly and kept running mem-test :/
[10:13] <soundray> prg2020: something went wrong and created a file instead of a directory in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/icons
[10:13] <charles> Does anyone know the files I have to edit to force x to understand this monitor has a vertical refresh higher than 60hz?
[10:14] <soundray> prg2020: I suggest you do a 'sudo mv /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/icons ~' and retry apt-get -f install
[10:14] <prg2020> soundray:  How can I remove that dependency nicely.  Synaptic won't work until then..
[10:14] <prg2020> soundray:  Ahh.. thanks.  I'll give it a try.
[10:14] <soundray> prg2020: make sure that icons file isn't anything of importance before you rm it.
[10:14] <rendo> Meh, it works now, lamely though so I'll live with it for now.
[10:14] <Ng> charles: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:15] <soundray> Madpilot: what a grateful client ;)
[10:15] <charles> I've tried that.
[10:15] <leleobhz> hello all!
[10:15] <blue-frog> I am using breezy, can someone point me to my login program when I log in to gdm?

[10:16] <charles> worth a try.
[10:16] <charles> alright thanks

[10:18] <bhilton> How do I remap right click to something else on my ibook using fluxbox?
[10:18] <Dandre> hello,
[10:18] <gnomefreak> you can build vim7 but its not really worth it IMHO
[10:18] <soundray> leleobhz: in the worst case, you can compile your own.
[10:18] <Dandre> I have a problem with my eclipse install
[10:19] <blue-frog> gnomefreak ty for your answer but I need somethign different I think, I need to modify my login program to implement timeoutd in it
[10:19] <leleobhz> soundray: but i dontknow how create a package
[10:19] <gnomefreak> blue-frog: there shouldnt be a time limit on gdm grub has a time limit setting
[10:19] <soundray> leleobhz: you don't have to -- but if you want to, you'll find a how-to on the web.
[10:20] <mynimal> Hey, I've got a small problem
[10:20] <leleobhz> ok
[10:20] <gnomefreak> !vim7
[10:20] <ubotu> gnomefreak: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:20] <soundray> blue-frog: time limit for what?
[10:20] <mynimal> I'm trying to install something but it says I don't have SM.
[10:20] <ompaul> !help
[10:20] <Dandre> I have done apt-get install eclipse-jdk but I don't know how to launch eclipse :-(
[10:20] <mynimal> I did a search and haven't found anything, I searched Synaptic too.
[10:20] <Seveas> !vim7 is <reply> vim7 will be available in edgy
[10:20] <ubotu> Seveas: okay
[10:20] <charles> is videogen available under add programs with the universal repository added? I'm not seeing it on a search.
[10:21] <bhilton> OK, how do I remap right click  on my ibook using gnome?
[10:21] <Polypterus> soundray: maybe it can be done from inside "System tools" --> "Configure" ? Removing the external hd icon from the desktop that is..
[10:21] <soundray> !info videogen
[10:21] <ubotu> videogen: (Create arbitrary-res modelines using hardware parameters), section universe/x11, is optional. Version: 0.32-1 (breezy), Packaged size: 24 kB, Installed size: 132 kB
[10:21] <blue-frog> soundray joe is allowed to log in from 3pm to 5pm, if he logs in at 4:45pm I want him to be disconnected at 5pm, so far only timeoutd seems to offer me such possiblity
[10:21] <mynimal> Anyone know the synaptic/apt-get name for "SM"?
[10:21] <charles> I do not have a universe or x11 section under add applications...
[10:22] <charles> so where is it referring to?
[10:22] <weazzle> does anyone know much about RAID?
[10:22] <ompaul> mynimal, what does that package do - those letters are too comon to find it
[10:22] <weazzle> I want to set up a raid in my linux system, but don't want to re-install
[10:22] <Madpilot> charles, use Synaptic - videogen might not have a menu entry, so it might not show up in Add Apps
[10:22] <mynimal> It's just a dependancy for GMPC
[10:22] <bhilton> Could somebody point me to a place where I could read about remapping mouse clicks?
[10:23] <soundray> blue-frog: interesting... no ideas here though, sorry.
[10:23] <mynimal> Just a sec, I'll upload a .txt file with the error
[10:23] <ompaul> mynimal, no don't bother
[10:23] <DBO> is the US repo still down?
[10:23] <eduard> hello ,does anyone know what plugins i need to watch a dvd on my computer with totem ?
[10:23] <DBO> !dvd
[10:23] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[10:24] <t-thing> 3/leave
[10:24] <t-thing> heh
[10:24] <ompaul> mynimal, you need to enable Universe and then you can do >>sudo apt-get install gmpc<<
[10:24] <mynimal> I'm installing the SVN, not the final version.
[10:24] <ompaul> mynimal, why bother
[10:24] <mynimal> Because it's completely different.
[10:24] <odin> hey, can anyone help me setup fstab so I can get to my windows partition with fdisk?
[10:24] <mynimal> And I've tried the final version and it wouldn't work right; I've only seen people using the SVN.
[10:25] <charles> where is universe/x11?
[10:25] <ompaul> mynimal,  well then you better put up that error message
[10:25] <charles> ... I'm not seeing it anywhere on here
[10:25] <mynimal> http://www.mynimalistic.net/upload/files/error.txt
[10:25] <ompaul> mynimal, paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[10:25] <jason_> Newbie here.  Is it possible to autodetect a sound card?
[10:25] <blue-frog> soundray ok ty. I have timeoutd works fine for this but only for ssh. My problems comes when I use gdm hence my question what is my login program and where can I find it.
[10:25] <Madpilot> charles, are you using Synaptic or Add Apps?
[10:25] <mynimal> Already linked.
[10:25] <eduard> does anyone use totem to watch dvd's ?
[10:25] <DBO> jason_, yeah, it should picked up on boot automatically
[10:26] <Amaranth> eduard: it mostly works
[10:26] <confused> XD
[10:26] <jason_> Oh, it didn't for me.  Compaq deskpro, built-in sound and speaker
[10:26] <mynimal> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14353 There too if you prefer that.
[10:26] <eduard> amaranth - when i try it says i need a plugin but does not say which one
[10:27] <Amaranth> eduard: breezy?
[10:27] <odin> is there any way to find a partition's mount point that isn't listed in fstab?
[10:27] <charles> I was using Add Apps
[10:27] <charles> But I found it in Synaptic with a search.
[10:27] <eduard> dapper
[10:27] <Amaranth> eduard: please join #ubuntu+1
[10:27] <Amaranth> eduard: until june 1st that's the channel for dapper help
[10:27] <ompaul> mynimal, please wait about, this machine is only recently build I now have to pull down sources to find out where that live
[10:27] <eduard> ok thanks
[10:28] <mynimal> ompaul, alright. Thanks.
[10:29] <blue-frog> When I am at the login screen what is the program invoked? and what is the program invoked as soon as I hit enter, pls?
[10:30] <ompaul> mynimal, while this thing crawls have you installed build essential?
[10:30] <mynimal> I'm pretty sure I have, I'll check.
[10:30] <mynimal> ompaul, yep.
[10:30] <ompaul> mynimal, and while your waiting ask in #ubuntu-motu they may be ready for your question long before I get it downloaded :)
[10:31] <mynimal> Alright :P
[10:32] <mynimal> Also, I have a more simple question, is there any way to have pkg-config check two directories?
[10:32] <andrejkw> mynimal: yes
[10:32] <mynimal> I've got two directories - /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig and /usr/lib/pkgconfig
[10:33] <egad> uhmm has anyone here seen "Package xorg-driver-fglrx is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[10:33] <egad> " ????
[10:33] <duelboot> okay, so I install dapper and have two (minor issues) now...first my screen resolution won't go as good as it used to (was 1600x1200, now 1280x960).  How can I get it back to what it was?
[10:33] <mynimal> And I think sometimes they get mixed up, because sometimes it will check for apps I have installed and not find them.
[10:33] <mynimal> I can help you with that duelboot.
[10:33] <mynimal> One sec.
[10:33] <duelboot> 2nd: where did they move the configuration editor in dapper?
[10:33] <duelboot> was apps > system tools    before
[10:33] <mynimal> gconf-editor?
[10:34] <Tuzlo> are USB devices in ubuntu plug and play?
[10:34] <egad> this message is seen by doing sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[10:34] <duelboot> maybe mynimal...i only used the gui on it
[10:34] <mynimal> Yeah, run terminal, type in gconf-editor and hit enter
[10:34] <Tuzlo> fglrx? what video card you usin?
[10:34] <duelboot> yep mynimal thx...now for the first one
[10:34] <mynimal> It's got a GUI
[10:34] <duelboot> ?
[10:34] <mynimal> Getting you a link.
[10:34] <egad> 200M its a laptop
[10:34] <duelboot> tyx
[10:34] <duelboot> thx
[10:35] <mynimal> grah, the ubuntu forums are being slow again
[10:35] <andrejkw> mynimal: PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/onepath/to/dir:/secondpath/to/dir

[10:35] <mynimal> Thanks, andrejkw
[10:36] <mynimal> Do I have to do anything after that?
[10:36] <andrejkw> export PKG_CONFIG_PATH
[10:36] <mynimal> Thanks.
[10:37] <egad> guess my error is a rare one.. hehe
[10:37] <Tuzlo> Is there a nzb GUI client for ubuntu?
[10:38] <mynimal> egad
[10:38] <egad> ?
[10:38] <mynimal> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[10:38] <mynimal> Should do it hahah
[10:39] <duelboot> mynimal, thx for the link, just noticed it :) now if only the forums weren't so slow at this moment
[10:39] <egad> Package xorg-driver-fglrx is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[10:39] <egad> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[10:39] <egad> is only available from another source
[10:39] <egad> E: Package xorg-driver-fglrx has no installation candidate
[10:39] <egad> thats what that does, mynimal
[10:39] <mynimal> hrm
[10:39] <mynimal> duelboot: no problem

[10:40] <leojstewart> And does anyone know how to fix this problem?
[10:40] <Afief> how do i recursively search a directory through command line?
[10:41] <mynimal> -R is recursive I think
[10:41] <egad> gnomefreak: uhh it was just 4 lines...
[10:41] <egad> but ok..
[10:41] <Blissex> Afief: 'man find' and several tutorials.
[10:41] <gnomefreak> egad: read the topic there is no pasting in here and i have it as 7 lines
[10:41] <ompaul> mynimal, grep -R _CFLAG *  | less << produces lots of output from that programs source for Ubuntu but if I stick an m in front of that underscore there is no such beast

[10:59] <charles> Where might I find my videocards maximium pixel clock information?
[10:59] <D1> people with dapper---do you know where the new gnome searchbar thing is located?
[10:59] <D1> I can't find it
[11:00] <Madpilot> D1, #ubuntu+1 for Dapper
[11:01] <D1> thanks.
[11:01] <|Sivik|> anyone here use cedega?
[11:01] <cjones> could someone take a look at this and tell me what went wrong http://pastebin.com/728785
[11:02] <Fenix-Dark> |Sivik|, i used to
[11:02] <|Sivik|> Fenix-Dark, as in your don't anymore
[11:03] <charles> Anyone know the maximum dot clock of a geforce 6800?
[11:03] <Fenix-Dark> |Sivik|, correct
[11:03] <Brander> So, everytime I mount a device e.g. I insert a cd, a shortcut is placed on the desktop, how do I stop that?
[11:04] <|Sivik|> Fenix-Dark, i need some help with the new one
[11:04] <Fenix-Dark> |Sivik|, uh huh... whats wrong?
[11:04] <|Sivik|> Fenix-Dark, i put a disc in, mounted it, but i don't have any install options
[11:05] <egad> breezy cant find the package list from archive.ubuntu.com  (removed the us. as mentioned in the topic)
[11:05] <Fenix-Dark> |Sivik|, try running it via the command line
[11:05] <|Sivik|> Fenix-Dark, thats where i'm running it from
[11:05] <|Sivik|> does it need to be via root?
[11:05] <Fenix-Dark> like 'cedega /path/to/install/file/on/cd.exe'
[11:05] <|Sivik|> no, haven't tried that one yet
[11:05] <Fenix-Dark> |Sivik|, cedega doesn't need root privlages
[11:05] <|Sivik|> ok
[11:05] <charles> Gah I give up.
[11:05] <cjones> could someone take a look at this and tell me what went wrong http://pastebin.com/728785
[11:06] <Fenix-Dark> charles, on what?
[11:06] <Inazad> Hi there, I can't run SUperTux and Frozen-Bubble !!! I want some help plz..
[11:06] <egad> im bummed :c(
[11:07] <charles> making this config for my monitor.
[11:07] <egad> setting up the graphics drivers shouldnt be this hard.. :c/
[11:07] <charles> I can't find the pixel clock speed of a 6800 and therefor I can't make it
[11:07] <Fenix-Dark> egad, what gfx card?
[11:07] <Polypterus> Does anyone know how I can remove my external harddrive icon from the desktop? I'm gonna have it in the panel instead, so I can't unmount it. Using Breezy & Gnome.
[11:07] <charles> not to mention the tools I was suggested to use have nothing to do with x.org
[11:07] <|Sivik|> Fenix-Dark, it says in need to install a verion of cedega before i can run it, but i installed the 5.1 version
[11:07] <nickrud> egad, no, they shouldn't. Non free software ;(
[11:07] <Fenix-Dark> |Sivik|, ask in #cedega i haven't used the newer versions
[11:08] <Inazad> Hi there, I can't run SUperTux and Frozen-Bubble !!! I want some help plz..
[11:08] <charles> Is there a tool for generating monitors configs for x.org?
[11:08] <|Sivik|> i am, but no one is alive in there
[11:08] <egad> radeon 200m  (laptop)
[11:08] <giligan> does anyone have sucess running sonicstage >?
[11:08] <charles> I have one for x11 and xfree86 but none for x.org.
[11:08] <Fenix-Dark> |Sivik|, wait for the beep and leave a message
[11:08] <grogoreo> hi
[11:08] <|Sivik|> Fenix-Dark, lol
[11:09] <grogoreo> what is the folder called for installing themes? .theme? .themes? I've tried both and they don't appear. I did try adding themes when I used breezy in the same way but can't remember the folders name. I know you can add them manually in the themes window, but I wanted to know if you can use a folder
[11:09] <Fenix-Dark> egad, ati does have truely horrible drivers
[11:09] <funky> what's the proper repository to install mplayer/w32codecs on dapper ?
[11:09] <Fenix-Dark> egad, i can't help ya as i only purchase nvidia ones
[11:09] <egad> Fenix-Dark, seems it.. its igp so i didnt really have a choice...
[11:09] <nickrud> charles, have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:09] <charles> yes
[11:09] <bimberi> Polypterus: Apps -> Sys Tools -> Conf Editor, /apps/nautilus/desktop, volumes_visible, uncheck
[11:09] <egad> Fenix-Dark, wouldnt be so bad if ANY suppostories worked.. then i could at least download some drivers..
[11:10] <napsy> Hey. Are there any bmpx ubuntu packages for dapper?
[11:10] <bimberi> !tell funky about mplayer
[11:10] <egad> i call them suppositories coz none of them work hehe
[11:10] <bimberi> !tell funky about codecs
[11:10] <Polypterus> bimberi: Thanks a bunch mate! :)
[11:10] <cjones> could someone take a look at this and tell me what went wrong http://pastebin.com/728785
[11:10] <funky> bimberi: thanks
[11:10] <egad> synaptic cant even find them
[11:11] <bimberi> Polypterus,funky: yw :)
[11:11] <Fenix-Dark> egad, thats whats stoping me from buying a laptop atm
[11:11] <cjones> could someone take a look at this and tell me what went wrong http://pastebin.com/7287969
[11:11] <nickrud> charles, my nvidia clock is at grep PixClock /var/log/Xorg.0.log I think
[11:11] <egad> Fenix-Dark, i didnt have a choice.. it was a necessary buy
[11:11] <Fenix-Dark> egad, vesa should work for 2d stuff
[11:12] <The_Answer> what's the best program to use for a slideshow media?
[11:12] <egad> Fenix-Dark, yeah i have 2d fine.. 3d just doesnt work
[11:12] <ompaul> cjones, stop repeating, if you want to solve that I can point you at a way, but it is not that way
[11:12] <|Sivik|> is there no longer a demo for cedega?
[11:12] <egad> Fenix-Dark, but i cant even reinstall any drivers because none of the archive servers are working for me
[11:12] <Fenix-Dark> egad, go to ati.com and download the drivers directly from them
[11:13] <charles> Thank you
[11:13] <egad> Fenix-Dark, im using the ati.com atm.. thats how i got 2d working hehe
[11:13] <charles> Well I reconfigured it with sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and gave it the values in Sonys PDF for it.
[11:13] <cjones> ompaul sorry i got the url wrong
[11:13] <charles> I guess time to restart x and see if it worked.
[11:13] <charles> wish me luck
[11:13] <egad> good luck
[11:14] <acke> i cant find skype in apt-get
[11:14] <egad> read the topic.. its hosed
[11:14] <bimberi> ubotu tell acke about skype
[11:14] <ompaul> cjones, the url has not changed since I first looked at it, and I would not solve that problem that way, now if you want to solve it I can help you, but I would not use that route
[11:15] <C-O-L-T> how to change splash screen in gnome?
[11:15] <cjones> ompaul well will you help me then please
[11:15] <egad> anyways.. guess ill go try to reload the ati drivers yet again... im finishing day 2 of trying to get these drivers working...  maybe one day it will be a simple ~2 minute job like in windows..
[11:15] <egad> cheers all
[11:16] <ompaul> cjones, yes I need to find the names of some programs please wait one moment
[11:16] <Brujah> Hy everybody!
[11:16] <Brujah> Is there a chance that I get a program of mine that you need a commercial compiler for in the universe archive of ubuntu?
[11:17] <bimberi> ubotu tell C-O-L-T about splash
[11:17] <Madpilot> Brujah, try #ubuntu-motu - they're in charge of the Universe repo, mostly
[11:18] <Brujah> Okay will write the same there!
[11:18] <acke> bimberi ty
[11:18] <bimberi> acke: np
[11:18] <ompaul> cjones,  do you have mp3encode installed?
[11:19] <cjones> ompaul no just mplayer and lame
[11:19] <mirak> the dapper kernel is compiled with gcc 3 or 4 ?
[11:19] <cjones> should i "sudo apt -get install mp3encode" ?
[11:20] <cjones> ompaul should i "sudo apt -get install mp3encode" ?
[11:20] <Seveas> 4
[11:20] <ompaul> cjones, its appears that it is a front for something else - please hang on
[11:20] <cjones> ompaul ok thannks
[11:21] <_antix> how do I change the port for gnome's remote desktop?
[11:23] <_antix> gnomefreak: how do I change the port for gnome's remote desktop?
[11:23] <gnomefreak> _antix: not sure
[11:24] <_antix> ok
[11:24] <cjones> ompaul could it be possable that even though i got that error thet the script still worked ?
[11:25] <ompaul> cjones, it does not look likely
[11:25] <cjones> ok
[11:26] <ernie_r> is there a tool in the breezy badger distro that shows info about your ra0 wireless device? in particular, the channel it's currently using?
[11:27] <ompaul> cjones, actually just back up your script (my method is much more work :-/) and use >>-ao pcm:waveheader<< in the place of >>-waveheader<<
[11:27] <ompaul> cjones, to edit the file fire up gedit at that file :-)
[11:27] <Fenix-Dark> are there any reasons for me to switch to ubuntu from slacwkare?
[11:27] <ernie_r> Fenix-Dark, I did ;)
[11:28] <Fenix-Dark> ernie_r, well, did you have everything working fine in slackware?
[11:28] <Madpilot> Fenix-Dark, Ubuntu is brown. ;)
[11:28] <ernie_r> Fenix-Dark, yes I liked Slackware well for the .tgz system
[11:28] <Fenix-Dark> Madpilot, what do you mean?
[11:29] <ompaul> Fenix-Dark, its a great desktop colour, :-)
[11:29] <Fenix-Dark> oh ok
[11:29] <Madpilot> Fenix-Dark, it was a joke. The default desktop colour for Ubuntu is brownish
[11:29] <Fenix-Dark> ic
[11:29] <ernie_r> Fenix-Dark, Ubuntu is a lot easier for me, i'm sort of a migrant from the MS world
[11:29] <Fenix-Dark> but i could change it in kde so thats irrelevant
[11:29] <cjones> ompaul i dont know whats wrong but the script does work in a test but i still gives me the the samr error but as long as it works should i care ?
[11:29] <rab> is there anyway to install a livecd?
[11:30] <cjones> rab only in dapper
[11:30] <rab> what about nubuntu live cd?
[11:30] <ompaul> cjones, well the change is suggested by the scripts output, it might be of use, your call, I like things to work without error,
[11:30] <andrejkw> Is it possibel to display some sort of an indication whens omeone is conencted to my remote desktop?
[11:30] <andrejkw> Like a tray icon?
[11:31] <cjones> ompaul ok i will thank you so much for all your help
[11:31] <jhenn> can somone recommend a pcmcia wired nic
[11:31] <andrejkw> check out Linksys
[11:32] <rab> so there is no way to perminatly install nubuntu?
[11:32] <crimsun> rab: using breezy's live cd? no. You can if you use dapper's live cd, though.
[11:33] <DBO> crimsun, hes talking about nubuntu which is a security distro of ubuntu
[11:33] <DBO> but the answer is still no
[11:33] <jhenn> can someone recommend a pcmcia wired NIC?
[11:33] <rab> damn
[11:33] <andrejkw> LINKSYS
[11:33] <andrejkw> jhenn: LINKSYS
[11:33] <andrejkw> jhenn: LINKSYS
[11:33] <jhenn> andrejkw: they make wired shit?
[11:33] <DBO> yes...
[11:33] <me> how can i get the new version of gaim
[11:34] <jhenn> me: don't
[11:34] <ompaul> rab http://www.nubuntu.org/about.php
[11:34] <DBO> me, compile from source
[11:34] <me> its not in the synaptic default repositories
[11:34] <whyami> nubuntu is at flight 6. Does this correspond with dapper flight 6?
[11:34] <bimberi> !gaim2
[11:34] <ubotu> Packages for gaim 2.0.0 beta 3 are available - https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2006-April/072721.html
[11:34] <me> i could do that
[11:34] <me> oh shit tight
[11:34] <andrejkw> jhenn: Linksys PCM200
[11:34] <andrejkw> jhenn: been using it for a year now, without a prob
[11:35] <nekostar> upgrading inet bbiab
[11:35] <|neo> i have some problem i just erased the apache initialization script acidentdly and i tried to reinstall the package but the script does not apear again can any one help me whit this please
[11:35] <andrejkw> Is it possible to display some sort of an indication when someone is connected to my remote desktop?
[11:36] <gdb> Hey, guys, what's the state of SELinux on 5.10?  I'm digging for informatoin here on the Ubuntu wiki and I'm getting the impression that the work necessary to get it integrated isn't done yet but should be for a future release.  Is that true?
[11:37] <enyc> gdb:  hrrm im sure i saw totes on ubuntu wiki - notes about  'practive security' etc.
[11:37] <enyc> gdb: note that ubuntu 6.06 will be released very soon
[11:37] <mysta> hello
[11:37] <babyboy> anyone help me please lol
[11:37] <babyboy> real emergency lmfao
[11:37] <DBO> !ask
[11:37] <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.
[11:38] <gdb> enyc: Yes, I understand it's June 1st.  Is that slated to have SELinux installed and enabled by default based on the Fedora model?
[11:38] <enyc> gdb: I think that the reelase-after-dapper[6.06]  is likely to uinclude some proactive security whatnet.
[11:38] <gdb> Ah, ok, sounds good.
[11:38] <enyc> gdb: I dont know
[11:38] <babyboy> well i changed the users and groups bit like my udername i moved it from the admin group so i cannot do sudo su or login in anywhere as root or use any app..... that reqires root :(
[11:38] <babyboy> any idea?
[11:38] <enyc> gdb: really... 6.06(dapper) is a stable release to keep on suppert
[11:38] <gdb> I come from a Fedora background and I'm checking out Ubuntu because I like the philosophy behind it and the single CD installation.  I'm pretty lost when it comes to managing a Debian-like system, though, so it's all a learning experience for me.
[11:38] <enyc> gdb: the release AFTER is for lots-of-new-stuff
[11:39] <Ng> gdb: I seriously doubt SELinux is going to be on by default in dapper
[11:39] <Ng> it certainly wasn't in the beta I installed
[11:39] <|neo> i have some problem i just erased the apache initialization script acidentdly and i tried to reinstall the package but the script does not apear again can any one help me whit this please
[11:39] <Ng> but #ubuntu+1 is the place to ask about dapper really :)
[11:39] <enyc> babyboy: erm
[11:39] <enyc> babyboy:bmoot to recovery console then
[11:39] <gdb> No problem, I see a lot of "port the management tools from Fedora" in the wiki page so I'm guessing there's a lot of integration work to be done yet.
[11:39] <babyboy> i tried that
[11:39] <me> how can i get more repositories in my stuff ?
[11:39] <Ng> babyboy: reboot into recovery mode, and run "adduser yourusername admin"
[11:39] <ompaul> babyboy, well you need to bring the box up in single usermode, that is done after a reboot, and then change the file back, that is all you can do
[11:39] <Ng> !tell me about sources
[11:39] <DBO> babyboy, you will have to edit the file with a live CD
[11:40] <ompaul> DBO, no, read above your note :)
[11:40] <roryy> |neo: /etc/init.d/apache2 is in the apache2-common package -- try reinstalling that package
[11:40] <babyboy> yer cnt i just do what u sed log in as root from recovery and type that command in?
[11:40] <babyboy> that should bring me bak to root priv?
[11:40] <DBO> ompaul, he said it didnt work
[11:40] <gdb> I don't care for Debian's library of CDs and I'm sort of tired of Fedora's development cycle so I'm looking for something I can be comfortable with.  So far, I'm liking Ubuntu and I'm looking forward to it getting up to speed on some of the newer techologies.  And I'm patient about it. :-)
[11:40] <ernie_r> is there a tool in the breezy badger distro that shows info about your ra0 wireless device? in particular, the channel it's currently using?
[11:41] <Ng> babyboy: when you reboot into recovery mode you should jus get a root shell, the command I gave will put your user back into the admin group and let you perform root tasks with your password
[11:41] <babyboy> thank you very much Ng, ompaul and DBO :) much apreciated
[11:41] <ompaul> babyboy, not how I read it, I read he could not carry out root work, and my understanding was that he has not said anything about recovery/single user mode :-)
[11:41] <ompaul> babyboy, last line not for you --- DBO :-) ^^
[11:42] <gdb> Ng: Speaking of that (the question you just answered), is there a write up on configuring the system to enforce entry of the root password when booting to single user mode ala Solaris? "Enter root password for single user mode or press CTRL-D for normal startup: ".
[11:42] <DBO> ompaul, I see, I read it wrong then.  In which case, yes you are right =)  Single user mode ftw here
[11:42] <Ng> gdb: yeah, just set a root password
[11:42] <babyboy> np thank you. :) brb
[11:42] <Ng> !tell gdb about root
[11:42] <gdb> Ng: Ah, ok, so it's already set up that way.  Thanks.
[11:42] <gdb> Yeah, I like how root is locked by default.
[11:42] <gdb> So simply setting a password will cause the system to enforce its entry when booting single user mode.
[11:43] <Ng> gdb: should do, yep. That's a behaviour inherited from Debian
[11:43] <gdb> Thanks!
[11:43] <gdb> Like I said, I'm new to the Debian-like (and thus Ubuntu) way of doing things coming from a Red Hat background (and before that Slackware and NetBSD).  It's a fun learning experience. :-)
[11:43] <blue-frog> looking for someone familiar with timeoutd pls
[11:43] <gdb> Have to find something new to do with it starts to get boring. ;-)
[11:43] <ompaul> gdb, loose the root password and good bye, you are also vunerable to password attacks  on root
[11:44] <Ng> ompaul: good bye?
[11:44] <gdb> ompaul: Ah, yes and no. :-)
[11:44] <Ng> ompaul: never passed "init=/bin/sh" to the kernel? ;)
[11:44] <|neo> roryy: it didn't work
[11:44] <ompaul> Ng, loose it and you can't get in well there is that but how do you do that if grub won't let you there :)
[11:44] <gdb> ompaul: I don't allow any incoming network save ssh and I use the AllowUsers directive in sshd_config so it's impossible to log into root from anywhere other than the console or via su so I'm not too concerned about it. :-)
[11:44] <Ng> ompaul: boot grub from a floppy/cd ;)
[11:44] <gdb> That being said, your own account is a root password on ubuntu.
[11:45] <DBO> Ng, at that point why not just modify /etc/shadow with a live cd...
[11:45] <gdb> Since you're in the admin group and they only need know YOUR password to "sudo exec bash --login"
[11:45] <roryy> |neo: perhaps uninstall and reinstall; otherwise i don't have any solution, sorry.
[11:45] <Ng> ompaul: basically you should never assume that you have any real level of security if someone has physical access to the machine
[11:45] <ompaul> Ng, physical access is always a good chance we better all use 2048 bit keys with huge strong passwords quick :-)
[11:46] <gdb> Hell, you can go afk and someone can do that without your password if you've recently used sudo to run a root command.
[11:46] <|neo> roryy: i already tryde that i gess i have to reinstall all the operative system
[11:46] <DBO> gdb, you can change that behaviour
[11:46] <Ng> |neo: as in you just erased the init.d script?
[11:46] <gdb> Regardless, I like the Ubuntu paradigm of locking root by default and dropping the first user into group admin with ALL=ALL(ALL) sudo privledges.
[11:46] <|neo> ng : yes
[11:46] <ompaul> Ng, I spent a few years doing data security, and I may have some understanding of risk management (although it is gladly fading :-))
[11:47] <Madpilot> gdb, you could set your sudo timeout to zero minutes, if you really wanted to. (it would get pretty irritating, though...)
[11:47] <gdb> ompaul: Well, then you're no doubt aware that the risk incurred by setting a root password on an Ubuntu system is extremely small.
[11:47] <ompaul> gdb, and so you walk away from the keyboard and leave an open terminal ;-)
[11:47] <gdb> Madpilot: indeed. lol
[11:47] <racookier> how to change password?
[11:47] <Ng> |neo: you could either download the package manually (packages.ubuntu.com) and unpack it and grab the file by hand, or take a backup of your apache config and documentroot, then remove it with apt-get and the --purge option and re-install it, that should do the trick
[11:47] <|neo> ng : yes  the apache initialization script
[11:47] <gdb> ompaul: I absolutely do when I'm at home.
[11:47] <jhenn> racookier: passwd
[11:47] <gdb> I don't at work, but that has nothing to do with security.
[11:47] <DBO> Ng, the risk isnt external, the risk is PEBCAK...
[11:48] <me> i havea fresh ubuntu
[11:48] <Madpilot> racookier, changing your own pw? System->Admin->Users & Groups
[11:48] <Ng> ompaul: fair enough, I do tend to err on the side of teaching people to suck eggs in here :)
[11:48] <me> why doesnt it have like all the stuff i nee
[11:48] <gdb> It's so Ken Spillman doens't send out an "I'm feeling pretty today!" email to my entire director group.
[11:48] <me> like
[11:48] <me> GCC
[11:48] <me> and stuff already installed
[11:48] <racookier> how to change password?... the root password (by default none)
[11:48] <luisito> I mounted my Kingston memory stick manually in the terminal and then I did rm -r to remove all the files in it. Now ubuntu doesn't mount it automatically when inserted and neither manually. it says that sda1 doesn't exist.!
[11:48] <Madpilot> racookier, you don't need a root pw...
[11:48] <ompaul> gdb, Ng perhaps we should leave it there or take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:48] <DBO> wait... I didnt mean to say that to ng... *goes back to bed*
[11:48] <racookier> i want to change it
[11:48] <Ng> me: because most people don't need that. Installing the build-essential package will pull in the most useful compilation tools
[11:48] <Madpilot> me, install build-essential for GCC & such
[11:48] <ompaul> !tell racookier about sudo
[11:49] <ompaul> racookier, read that page from the bot, and it will tell you all you want to know
[11:49] <me> Madpilot, ??
[11:49] <blue-frog> gdb you can also use the admin account thru su via a normal account and exit as soon as you are finished
[11:49] <gdb> What's the name of the bot so I can ask it questions directly?
[11:49] <Ng> ubotu
[11:49] <Madpilot> gdb, ubotu
[11:49] <gdb> blue-frog: Ah!  That I didn't know.
[11:49] <gdb> Thanks for the bot name, too.
[11:49] <Madpilot> me, there's a package called build-essential that will install gcc and all the other compiling stuff you need.
[11:49] <me> install build esssential ?
[11:49] <me> ahh
[11:49] <gdb> I figure "sudo exec bash --login" works, too. ;-)

[11:51] <Brander> Hi I whant to install adobe reader and I type  "sudo apt-get install acroread
[11:51] <Brander> "  but then output says it has no installation candidate (in swedish)... um what wrong?
[11:51] <luisito> I mounted my Kingston memory stick manually in the terminal and then I did rm -r to remove all the files in it. Now ubuntu doesn't mount it automatically when inserted and neither manually. it says that sda1 doesn't exist. Any help please?
[11:51] <Madpilot> Brander, do you have Multiverse repo enabled?
[11:51] <Brander> yepp
[11:51] <capitanplaneta> great, june 1 !
[11:51] <ompaul> luisito, plug it in, and use the menu, System, Administration, Disks
[11:52] <capitanplaneta> is compiz / xgl included by default on dapper? or easy to install at least?
[11:52] <luisito> ompaul: the system doesn't read it even.
[11:52] <ompaul> capitanplaneta, please ask in the channel #ubuntu+1
[11:53] <capitanplaneta> ok sorry

[11:54] <ompaul> luisito, well it is possible that you did not sync it before you removed it, that tends to be a bad situation

[11:56] <me> is there a package to automatically install like Gtk devel stuff and all that crap
[11:57] <andrejkw>  Is it possible to display some sort of an indication when someone is connected to my remote desktop?
[11:57] <andrejkw>  Is it possible to display some sort of an indication when someone is connected to my remote desktop?
[11:57] <luisito> ompaul: I just think it is because the sda1 file dissapear from /dev. I don't know why that happen. I need somebody to send me that file to correct that issue.
[11:58] <ompaul> luisito, /dev is rebuilt every time you reboot,
[11:58] <ompaul> luisito, udev is nothing like the old devfs
[11:59] <luisito> ompaul: well, then I don't know what da' hell happened
[11:59] <luisito> ompaul: thank you, anyway :)
[12:00] <ompaul> luisito, plug it into a different socket
