[12:01] <Matthewv> jahshua, ubuntu includes sound juicer, but i use banshee
[12:01] <h3sp4wn> Mr_Denix: Just run 'route' and whichever interface is set as default then that is the one you need to put into the iptables line
[12:01] <jahshua> ok thanks Matthewv
[12:02] <h3sp4wn> Mr_Denix: If you want to make the above permenant then edit /etc/sysctl.conf and /etc/network/interfaces (post-up /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ath0 -j MASQUERADE) would be the line you put in the section for the outgoing interface
[12:03] <glow> i have noticed one very odd thing, there is no option for grid in ataxx in gnome-games in dapper, even though it is documented in the game's help

[12:07] <_Mr_Denix_> looool
[12:08] <glow> neutrinomass, never done that before.. is there something like a bugzilla in the ubuntu website?
[12:08] <Dreamglider> no i dont know, maybe the collor settings in the player are woring
[12:08] <moyogo> Dreamglider: it's across players
[12:09] <Dreamglider> oh
[12:09] <Dreamglider> i dont know mate sorry
[12:09] <moyogo> actually mplayer seems to be doing alright
[12:09] <moyogo> but totem and real have the blues
[12:09] <neutrinomass> glow: Yes. State the version of Ubuntu which you are running and try to be specific as to the problem. http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+filebug
[12:09] <tim> can anybody help me resolve a display problem? everyting is displayed OK, but it is very laggy. any ideas?
[12:09] <Dreamglider> anyways
[12:09] <neutrinomass> glow: You might need a Launchpad account, not sure...
[12:10] <mirak> why launchpad isn't open source ?
[12:10] <_Nick> can Ubuntu open compressed winRAR files?
[12:11] <mirak> _Nick: yes, with unrarnonfree or unrar
[12:11] <mirak> free
[12:11] <glow> can someone look if they're also missing the option, because maybe its just my configuration
[12:11] <mirak> say hello to mirak
[12:11] <Dreamglider> i downloaded and installed oss3994a-linux-x86-v26-regparm.tar.gz last night, and lost all sound, then i tried to reinstall ALSA but i still have no sound
[12:12] <neutrinomass> mirak: Good question. They sort of address it in their FAQ. You can try #launchpad for more info though :-/
[12:12] <seres> is there any way to move the desktop on my monitor without using the bottons on my monitor
[12:12] <Dreamglider> i have a "stop sign" on the speaker/mixer icon, if i try to open it i get: Error. No volume control GStreamer plugin and/or devices found" i'm running ubuntu dapper
[12:12] <mirak> seres: what ?
[12:12] <neutrinomass> _Nick: 'unrar-free' is rather problematic, you're better off with using 'unrar' from the multiverse repository ...
[12:12] <benkong2> what would cause me to loose wheel scrolling in Firefox sometimes? Running dapper
[12:13] <seres> mirak: when i truened on my computer my desktop was out of center on my monitor

[12:13] <_Nick> is there any command to do through terminal?
[12:13] <tim> can anybody help me resolve a display problem? everyting is displayed OK, but it is very laggy. I am running a GeForce FX Go5700 Any ideas?

[12:13] <Stormx2> :D
[12:13] <seres> do you know of any way to fix it
[12:14] <Stormx2> It feels all... empty though. *restores backup*
[12:14] <benkong2> mirak: hmmmm... sometimes I can scroll up/down with the wheel and sometimes not. usually I have to restart my x to get it back
[12:14] <neutrinomass> _Nick: First you have to install 'unrar'. Then you can use Archive Manager, or the 'unrar' command line program.
[12:14] <Sivik> will k3b burn a disc with a .bin file?
[12:14] <seres> mirak: do you know of any way to fix it
[12:14] <dominic_> hello all :)
[12:14] <munckfish> Hi, I'm newish to ubuntu on laptops, just wondering is it safe to use the suspend feature in gnome? What are issues which have led to it being disabled in 6.06?
[12:14] <tescoil> What do I need to install to enable gimp to print now?
[12:15] <bobbyd> does anyone know if there's a way to override all "x style" file selectors in kde with the default KDE one? (for example the one in xmms...)
[12:15] <mirak> seres: change on the monirot
[12:15] <dominic_> just installed dapper, and going to try and move to ubuntu full time :) thought going to need a few questions answered along the way if anyone is free?
[12:15] <seres> mirak: i did and it cant move it over all the way
[12:16] <apokryphos> dominic_: fire away
[12:16] <Stormx2> !tgz
[12:16] <ubotu> [tgz]  same as a tar.gz which is a compressed archive similar to a zip file.  tar zxvf filename.tgz to extract.
[12:16] <dou213> dominic_, just post ur questions
[12:16] <neutrinomass> munckfish: It hasn't bee disabled AFAIK. If you can't see it in gnome's logout it's because your machine is not known to be compatible with suspending.... i.e. won't suspend properly
[12:16] <wil_> dominic what questions do you have?
[12:16] <lurker99> !ask
[12:16] <ubotu> For information on how to ask good questions please see http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html The more information you can give the better we can help you. If your going to give output of commands please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:16] <dominic_> when i run wireless assistant, it says insufissent privilages, did you run as SUDO, how do i run it as SUDO i can open termial and do sudo but i carnt find its filename
[12:16] <mirak> seres: ha
[12:17] <apokryphos> dominic_: have you read the faq?
[12:17] <munckfish> neutrinomass: sorry maybe i'm using the wrong terminology, I didn't mean hibernate, I mean the sleep
[12:17] <dominic_> i looked on the ubuntu website for help and it pointed me here
[12:17] <dominic_> !faq
[12:17] <ubotu> it has been said that faq is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonQuestions
[12:17] <Stormx2> pwnt.
[12:17] <dominic_> lol ;) just guessed
[12:17] <EmxBA> hi again
[12:18] <apokryphos> dominic_: always read the /topic when entering channels on IRC
[12:18] <Stormx2>  tar zxvf filename.tgz <-- how do I extract it into a specific folder?
[12:18] <Stormx2> Oh wait nevermind.
[12:18] <Stormx2> :P
[12:18] <neutrinomass> munckfish: "suspend" and "sleep" are the same.... "hibernate" is suspend-to-disk .... there has been some confusion, I'm not sure which is the most prevalent term right now. Anyway, you can try suspending.... in the worst case you'll have a hard freeze.
[12:18] <legind> hey all, I'm having trouble with my linksys wifi card, wpc54g.  it worked with badger, but dapper drake doesn't seem to like it
[12:18] <seres> mirak: got any other suggestions
[12:18] <dou213> apokryphos, what do u mean with /topic?
[12:18] <apokryphos> dou213: type /topic
[12:18] <mirak> seres: no sorry
[12:18] <dou213> TOPIC Not enough parameters
[12:18] <neutrinomass> munckfish: If it works fine though, file a bug against acpi-support in Launchpad. In the meantime, you can try searching launcpad for known issues...
[12:19] <wil_> dominic I am also trying to set up wireless --found my netgear wg511 v2  is not a go out of the box
[12:19] <seres> Mirak: thanks anyway
[12:19] <_Nick> hi folks, my libc6 and libc6-i686 are broken, is there any problem uninstall them?
[12:19] <apokryphos> dou213: what client are you using? Most IRC clients plain /topic displays the topic.
[12:19] <kazuki> Okay ive installed like every stupid codec and Totem-movie player STILL wont play my avi/xvid file !!!! ??
[12:19] <dou213> mIRC 6.17
[12:19] <apokryphos> kazuki: have you followed the faq instructions that it links to?
[12:19] <apokryphos> dou213: that's perhaps why =)
[12:19] <munckfish> neutrinomass: ah just a hard freeze, i c
[12:19] <kazuki> apokryphos: that what links to ?
[12:19] <apokryphos> kazuki: see the FAQ.
[12:20] <munckfish> neutrinomass: I'll have a go, thx
[12:20] <kazuki> apokryphos: where ?
[12:20] <Pupeno> Hello.
[12:20] <Pupeno> does anybody know how to get gems on Ubuntu ? is there any package with it ? I can't find it.
[12:20] <apokryphos> kazuki: in the channel topic
[12:20] <munckfish> Pupeno: do you mean ruby gems?
[12:20] <Pupeno> munckfish: yes.
[12:20] <kazuki> apokryphos: if it links to restricted formats ive already tried that
[12:20] <fiveiron> dangit
[12:20] <fiveiron> stupid xchat
[12:20] <Pupeno> munckfish: well, "gem": http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/AvailableGenerators
[12:21] <apokryphos> kazuki: if you followed it properly then you could *definitely* play xvids
[12:21] <munckfish> Pupeno: if so, I had that on my list to find out as well. I notice a lot the ruby kit is fragmented into different debs in the repos
[12:21] <dominic_> hmm probably shouldnt have installed the 64bit version
[12:21] <apokryphos> dominic_: there are different pros and cons
[12:21] <mirak> seres
[12:21] <munckfish> Pupeno: not sure about the indiv gems packages though, and gems isn't in the repos (at the normalish ones I've got configured)
[12:21] <legind> hey all, I'm having trouble with my linksys wifi card, wpc54g.  it worked with badger, but under dapper drake it isn't recieving any signals at all. i heard drake had better wireless support, so I turned off ndiswrapper, and nothing changes
[12:21] <goethe> whois
[12:22] <munckfish> !rubygems
[12:22] <dominic_> ok i read the faq
[12:22] <ubotu> munckfish: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

[12:22] <dominic_> i know how to run graphics programs with sudo, but how do i find out an application filename so i can run it in terminal
[12:23] <Pupeno> munckfish: according to this: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/RailsOnUbuntuDebianTestingAndUnstable it seems it wasn't available on Breezy.
[12:23] <Totte> I want to use OSS instead of ALSA, how do I do that?
[12:23] <fiveiron> anyone using xchat?
[12:24] <glow> yes?
[12:24] <DevZer0> yes
[12:24] <linuxman2142> hey guys its me

[12:24] <jughead> I am using zchat
[12:24] <jughead> xchat i mean
[12:24] <linuxman2142> I am on my pops computer
[12:24] <issy> before I updated ubuntu, I had streaming vid program that worked perfectly, but I can't remember what it was ...
[12:24] <issy> I think it was gstreamer?
[12:24] <jughead> your pop uses linux?
[12:24] <linuxman2142> yeah
[12:24] <maddy_> what=pop?
[12:24] <linuxman2142> Pop=Dad
[12:24] <maddy_> aha i c :)
[12:25] <jughead> issy it could have been gstreamer
[12:25] <linuxman2142> Dad=Father
[12:25] <maddy_> 1337 dad then though
[12:25] <fiveiron> ok here is my problem:  i installed xchat-gnome... didn't like it, uninstalled it, compiled xchat2 source and installed it, and I can not for the life of me get the stupid server/channel tabs to be at the bottom... it stays on the left just like in xhat-gnome
[12:25] <linuxman2142> Father=Man who loves me
[12:25] <_Nick> my libc6 package is broken, if a unistall them some essential packages will be broken, whawt do u swuggest???
[12:25] <linuxman2142> :P
[12:25] <fiveiron> any ideas?
[12:26] <jughead> fiveiron, did you look under the "view" section at the top
[12:26] <issy> jughead, but in apt-cache search I'm only seeing plugins for gstreamer...
[12:26] <fiveiron> jughead, thx... i'm stupid
[12:26] <jughead> view--layout--tabs
[12:26] <munckfish> Pupeno: seems it may still not be available as a deb on Dapper either then
[12:27] <jughead> lol np fiveiron, I uninstalled xchat gnome nad installed xchat because of that, then i realized it was a setting not the prog
[12:27] <fiveiron> brb
[12:28] <jughead> issy, have you set up your multimedia stuff already?
[12:28] <Luke> how can I change the splash screen with galternatives?
[12:28] <linuxman2142> brb
[12:28] <issy> jughead, I think I found what I'm looking for, totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin
[12:28] <maddy_> ^^
[12:28] <Sphygmos> hey.. how can i setup ubuntu for dual monitors? i'm trying to see if there's any built in configuration before i go messing with conf files
[12:29] <issy> !tell Sphygmos about xinerama
[12:29] <legind> !tell legind about xinerama
[12:29] <issy> Sphygmos, oh, no, you have to mess with conf files
[12:29] <issy> Sphygmos, but it's quite easy
[12:29] <krazykit> is there any way to get the totem-xine firefox plugin to do mp3?  i have libxine-extracodecs, and xine will play mp3s.
[12:30] <RadiantFire> krazykit: that should be enough
[12:30] <issy> Sphygmos, just gotta do a little editing to etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:30] <Sphygmos> issy: ok.. so far everything has been so simple.. i haven't wanted to touch the command line for fear of breaking it's perfection
[12:30] <jughead> issy, yes that's the one
[12:30] <pmorrison> Hello Everyone. I just downloaded the newest version of Ubunto, and when I boot to it, I get the menu like normal. But when I select the first entry (or the safe video mode too), all it says is loading... I've waited for 15 minutes, and asume it shouldn't take that long. Does anyone know where I can find help for this?
[12:30] <krazykit> RadiantFire: well, mp3 isn't showing up in about:plugins, and ytmnd sites aren't playing
[12:30] <DevZer0> hi, i am using an external monitor with my laptop, i see the same video on both, how do i configure to get spaning desktops ?, only configuration i see under Preferences -> is screen resolution, ( Thanks)
[12:30] <roostishaw> on Azureus, how do i get those annoying messages in the lower corner to go away?
[12:30] <DShepherd> !ati
[12:30] <ubotu> ati is probably http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
[12:30] <DevZer0> Ubuntu 6.06
[12:30] <_Mr_Denix_> how can i update from ubuntu to Xubuntu please ?
[12:30] <jughead> Sphygmos, you are probably going to have to edit you xorg.conf file
[12:31] <DShepherd> my fglrx driver seems to be broke
[12:31] <apokryphos> _Mr_Denix_: check the faq
[12:31] <krazykit> _Mr_Denix_: apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[12:31] <Matthewv> DevZer0, you will need to enable xinerama
[12:31] <issy> Sphygmos, well to be honest, when I updated ubuntu my display kinda got messed up, I think maybe because xinerama doesn't work very well with Dapper Drake or something
[12:31] <_Mr_Denix_> krazykit / apokryphos thank you :)
[12:31] <roostishaw> on Azureus, how do i get those annoying messages in the lower corner to go away?
[12:31] <DShepherd> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[12:31] <legind> hey all, I'm having trouble with my linksys wifi card, wpc54g.  it worked with badger, but under dapper drake it isn't recieving any signals at all. i heard drake had better wireless support, so I turned off ndiswrapper, and nothing changes.  is anyone having a similar problem? it's quite annoying
[12:31] <DShepherd> srry
[12:31] <DevZer0> thaks matthew.
[12:31] <bernier> hi, my comp is a p3 700. is it a 386 or 686?
[12:32] <roostishaw> 386
[12:32] <bernier> thanks
[12:32] <Luke> how can I change the splash screen?
[12:32] <Sphygmos> hmm.. i have an integrated gfx card.. so it's probably not nvidia or ati
[12:32] <neutrinomass> roostishaw: P3s are 686 are they not ? :-/
[12:32] <Matthewv> DevZer0, if both monitors already work, adding Section "ServerFlags"
[12:32] <Matthewv>   Option    "Xinerama" "on"
[12:32] <Matthewv> EndSection
[12:32] <Matthewv>  to the end of you /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:32] <jughead> Sphygmos, if you edit your xorg.conf file, make sure you make a backup and learn enough command line to change it back if you need to (no gui)
[12:32] <roostishaw> sorry, you're right...
[12:33] <tescoil> After upgrading to 6.06, I can't find any applications that print.  Usta work.  This a migrate-able offense gang.
[12:33] <roostishaw> on Azureus, how do i get those annoying messages in the lower corner to go away?
[12:33] <pmorrison> Anyone heard of my problem before? Dapper loads the boot menu off the live CD, but after selecting "boot or install" it just says "loading..." forever.
[12:33] <neutrinomass> bernier: So that would be a 686 :)
[12:33] <krazykit> roostishaw: google has the answer.  i had the same problem
[12:33] <Stormx2> !xorg
[12:33] <ubotu> rumour has it, xorg is To reconfigure your X server, type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" in a terminal, or check here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto or here http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-83973.html
[12:34] <roostishaw> krazykit, could you please just tell me?
[12:34] <krazykit> roostishaw: no, because i don't remember
[12:34] <roostishaw> krazykit, oh, ok. thanks, ill go look now!
[12:34] <leboff> anyone get qunu to work?
[12:35] <krazykit> roostishaw: it was either google or on the gentoo forums, i think.
[12:35] <tescoil> Okay, I gotta go blow away ubuntu and replace it with OpenSuSE now...
[12:35] <sbartleylinux> Can anyone tell me if there is a way to set gnome-power-manager to handle monitoring of an APC UPS via USB and to tell a cpu to shutdown if power is lost?
[12:35] <tim> does anybody know the command to edit xwindos?
[12:36] <bernier> Hi, i'm following the tut to update my kernel and i got that error while running "make xconfig"
[12:36] <bernier> qconf: cannot connect to X server
[12:36] <bernier> make[1] : *** [xconfig]  Error 1
[12:36] <bernier> make: *** [xconfig]  Error 2
[12:36] <Sphygmos> hmm.. has anyone setup ubuntu for dual monitors? i'm reading the threads but i'm not sure exactly what needs to be changed
[12:36] <sbartleylinux> My APC UPS seems to be monitored fine but I can't seem to figure out a way to control the shutdown settings for when batter power is low.
[12:36] <Gambit-> hey guys
[12:36] <Gambit-> I'm trying to get xdmcp working right

[12:45] <ikken> how do I install MySQL? I have mysql-common installed, but I'm not sure what other packages I need to have it work.
[12:45] <uXp> jahshua:  just dl a prog that rips tracks off into mp3's
[12:45] <apokryphos> ikken: /msg ubotu mysql
[12:45] <ikken> ok
[12:45] <jahshua> uXp thats what im asking about?
[12:45] <uXp> jahshua:  ah
[12:46] <Agrajag> jahshua: no no
[12:46] <uXp> jahshua:  check out package manager?
[12:46] <Agrajag> don't convert from ogg to mp3
[12:46] <uXp> Luke:  can you point me to a site with dual?
[12:46] <Agrajag> lossy compression to lossy compression is bad
[12:46] <Keps> Kman, try to go into your bios and load the default settings.
[12:46] <uXp> Luke:  and what do you mean limitations
[12:46] <jahshua> i need to for portable mp3 player Agrajag
[12:46] <Kman> how though
[12:46] <Agrajag> jahshua: install lame and grip
[12:47] <jahshua> ok
[12:47] <Kman> when i boot up, press F2 .. . and then?
[12:47] <Agrajag> jahshua: no, don't rip them to ogg in the first place
[12:47] <docsdq> help me, the menu doesn't appear in xubuntu, i can't edit the menu.xml, i've tried menumaker but useless
[12:47] <Sphygmos> hey.. i've got my timezone set to PST.. but for some reason the time is several hours off.. any ideas whats wrong here?
[12:47] <Luke> uXp: if you have the compiz and xgl then you cant have dual monitors
[12:47] <jahshua> what program can i use to rip them to mp3
[12:47] <Sphygmos> i told it to sync with a few different time servers
[12:47] <Agrajag> jahshua: lame and grip
[12:47] <jahshua> ok
[12:47] <stackcheese> hey i just read the gnome guide to making ubuntu look like mac osx and following the guid i removed my lower task bar (shows which application are currently running) now im usin gdesklets and i cant find a way to place it anywhere
[12:47] <uXp> Luke:  ah i see =[
[12:47] <Agrajag> you'll have to configure grip to use lame instead of oggenc, it's pretty simple
[12:47] <barney> How do I get a standard British keyboard layout working in dapper?
[12:47] <Fjodor> Luke, uXp: Why not? Working fine for me here
[12:48] <Keps> i dont know the excact key ofr entering the bios, but it should say it when it loads. When you've entered the bios look for the key that resets the bios (depends on what bios you have)
[12:48] <stackcheese> does anyone know what pannel/application its called to show whiat programs are currently running
[12:48] <barney> This is silly, I cant do single or double quotes
[12:48] <Kman> okay one sec
[12:48] <uXp> Fjodor:  you ahev xgl and compiz along with dual monitors?
[12:48] <Fjodor> uXp: Yes
[12:48] <docsdq> i need a help here, the menu doesn't appear in xubuntu, i can't edit the menu.xml, i've tried menumaker but useless
[12:48] <uXp> Fjodor:  how did you do that, help me?
[12:48] <Agrajag> uXp: are you using one video card or two?
[12:48] <apokryphos> docsdq: #xubuntu
[12:49] <Luke> Fjodor: oh maybe its different now. I never actually tried it people always just told me that
[12:49] <Kman> ok
[12:49] <Kman> so
[12:49] <stackcheese> can anyone help me get back my taskbar that shows what application that is currently running?
[12:49] <Fjodor> uXp: Nothing special, really. Got the setup working with regular Xorg, then shift
[12:49] <uXp> Agrajag:  one vid card that suports dual monitors
[12:49] <Kman>  i cant go to the BIOS
[12:49] <barney> meh... keyboard... this is silly.
[12:49] <Kman> i get into my Setup menu
[12:49] <Kman> but no BIOS
[12:49] <Kman> btw
[12:49] <Agrajag> uXp: you probably don't have to do anything special then
[12:49] <Kman> version is 1.60
[12:49] <Fjodor> uXp: Which card?
[12:49] <uXp> nvidia
[12:49] <Agrajag> as long as you already have xinerama set up
[12:49] <uXp> geforce 6800
[12:49] <Agrajag> twinview, whatever
[12:49] <Fjodor> Luke: Fair enough, but doesn't apply anymore
[12:50] <docsdq> apokryphos: docsdq: #xubuntu >>> thnx
[12:50] <Fjodor> uXp: You should be fine then
[12:50] <zanzaba> hmmmmm, aparrently my computer doesnt like boot cds
[12:50] <Agrajag> only thing is, compiz won't know where your monitor border is, so when you maximize something it'll take up both screens
[12:50] <uXp> Fjodor:  how do i install?
[12:50] <Keps> the setup menu of toshiba?
[12:50] <Fjodor> Agrajag: Again, outdate info
[12:50] <Kman> yea
[12:50] <stackcheese> does anyone know the command/option so when i run an application it doesnt creat and instant of itself but instead switches to the application that is already running?
[12:50] <Fjodor> uXp: Do you have twinview working in normal X
[12:50] <Kman> the PhoenixBIOS Setup Utility
[12:50] <Keps> do not now much about pre-installed systems and laptops
[12:51] <Agrajag> Fjodor: since when, I've been using it for weeks
[12:51] <Keps> but what options does it give you?
[12:51] <firefly__> is it possible to use the hosts file to point a nonexistant domain to another domain? like myfakedotcom.com -> subdomain.cheapskate.com
[12:51] <Agrajag> until the damn thing broke when I tired to update it
[12:51] <Kman> when i start up, it says F2 for Setup
[12:51] <Kman> which i did
[12:51] <apokryphos> stackcheese: most of the time that's down to a configuration in the application itself
[12:51] <roostishaw> anyone, when im running tor, how come whatismyipaddress.com still gets my real ip?
[12:51] <Kman> F10 is for Boot Selection
[12:51] <Kman> ok in Setip
[12:51] <Kman> Setup
[12:51] <Fjodor> Agrajag: Me too, with no probs. Which version?
[12:51] <uXp> Fjodor:  no
[12:51] <Agrajag> which version of what? compiz?
[12:51] <Fjodor> Agrajag: Yes
[12:52] <Keps> yes, F2 should be the key for entering the bios, but if you dont get into the bios they maybe locked it
[12:52] <Agrajag> hell, I don't know. Like I said, it no longer works.
[12:52] <uXp> Fjodor:  ubuntu only workin on 1 monitor, other is black
[12:52] <Fjodor> uXp: Try googling for it. And I'll post my xorg.conf to pastebin for reference
[12:52] <Agrajag> Xgl will start, but when I log in I get no WM
[12:52] <stackcheese> so there are no options in the launch option that will change that because everytime i click my GAIM launcher it creats another instant of itself
[12:52] <Fjodor> Agrajag: Bummer. No idea, though. Sorry
[12:52] <Kman> Main: System Time, Date, Hard Disk, Quiet Boot, Power on Display, LCD Display stretch, System and Extended Memory, BIOS Ver., and Language
[12:52] <Kman> thats the first tab

[12:53] <Kman> nothin happens with f9
[12:53] <harisund> Flannel, GDM setup screen no longer has XDMCP option :( .

[12:54] <harisund> Or does it? I haven't tried the Dapper from CD, I have been upgrading and dist-upgrading from Breezy back from Flight 1 days ..

[01:03] <DShepherd> is the RADEON 9200 SE supported by the the fglrx driver?
[01:04] <Cthulhu> subsinker, looks like broken configure script, you can run autoconf, automake. It may (or may not) help..
[01:04] <NET||abuse> DShepherd: according to the docs no.. 9500 and later
[01:04] <DShepherd> NET||abuse: ok
[01:04] <NET||abuse> DShepherd: but i've gotten Xgl working on the "ati" diver
[01:04] <DShepherd> NET||abuse: ok
[01:05] <NET||abuse> DShepherd: and this is an old ati radeon mobility 7500

[01:05] <acidjedi> What program can I use to transfer my music from my iPod to my computer?
[01:06] <DShepherd> acidjedi: banshee?
[01:06] <NET||abuse> i can't find a thing on the forums or on google about using aes encryption with my wireless
[01:06] <NET||abuse> does anyone have a clue?
[01:06] <acidjedi> DShepherd: I have banshee, and I see the synchronise button, but I'm afraid it will zynch to my library on the computer, which has no music
[01:07] <acidjedi> What program can I use to transfer my music from my iPod to my computer?
[01:07] <RadiantFire> acidjedi: er, manually navigate to the mountpoint
[01:07] <Flannel> !tell acidjedi about ipod
[01:07] <RadiantFire> its in the iTunes folder or something
[01:09] <Cthulhu> subsinker, ./configure script which you are launching is broken. there is a way to rebuild it with autoconf (but i'm not sure if it helps..)
[01:09] <acidjedi> Has anyone used banshee to transfer the music?
[01:09] <Stormx2> Hmm
[01:09] <Stormx2> maybe I was lagging
[01:09] <subsinker> Cthulhu: Erm... I dont't have any problem
[01:09] <stevekl> What's banshee
[01:10] <hiway> I'm having trouble burning audio CDs from m4a files; has anyone done this successfully?
[01:10] <acidjedi> A music program
[01:10] <Stormx2> *error* aclocal-1.9 failed. (exit code = 127)
[01:10] <xonic> if i have an mx1000 mouse would i be a ExplorerPS/2 or ImPS/2?
[01:10] <Stormx2> What do I need to install to fix that there error? :P
[01:10] <linux_newbie> hi all, I need help... I get the message: sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0777, should be 0440 what can I do ?
[01:10] <tymchn> hey all :)
[01:10] <stevekl> linux_newbie: "sudo chmod 044 /etc/sudoers"
[01:10] <Cthulhu> subsinker, damn autocompletion ;}
[01:10] <stevekl> linux_newbie: whoops
[01:11] <stevekl> linux_newbie: "sudo chmod 440 /etc/sudoers"
[01:11] <subsinker> xonic: My MX610 works nearly perfect with ExplorerPS/2
[01:11] <stevekl> yeah that's the ticket
[01:11] <tymchn> is it possible to use a desktop pager with multiple monitors on multiple graphics cards?
[01:11] <subsinker> Cthulhu: lol No problem =) Was pleased to get in contact with you =)
[01:11] <abonilla> Anyone knows which burning software will burn mp3 to music cd's?
[01:11] <chapium> anyone here know  of a linux publishing program?  (ability to import .pub files would be good too)
[01:11] <Stormx2> abonilla: k3b
[01:11] <xonic> subsinker:  my mx1000 doesn't use the back and forward buttons
[01:11] <abonilla> Stormx2: is not doing it for me.
[01:12] <jcole> chapium: scribus
[01:12] <MarcN> tymchn: sure.  At work I plug in an extra monitor to my laptop and have dual head (one video card) and have multiple desktops too.
[01:12] <jcole> !ati
[01:12] <ubotu> ati is probably http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html#installatidriver or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI ... the radeon 9200 and below are supported by the open-source drivers
[01:12] <xonic> they are like not workin
[01:12] <Stormx2> abonilla: Have you got the k3b-mp3 package? ;)
[01:12] <LjL> chapium: scribus. don't think it imports from .pub
[01:12] <abonilla> Stormx2: I bet I do't
[01:12] <chapium> jcole: scribus is scary, but that might have to do
[01:12] <subsinker> xonic: Yeah... was myproblem too... i solved it with a modified xmodmap
[01:12] <tymchn> MarcN does the pager show you whats on each monitor.. like a preview?
[01:12] <dogafro> i'm having issues burning dvds from image files or from scratch - everything seems to work fine, but the dvd is blank when it's done!
[01:12] <xonic> hmm
[01:12] <Dimitris> How do i enable full duplex sound in dapper? I am having problems using skype and amsn at the same time.
[01:12] <linux_newbie> stevekl: I typed "sudo chmod 400 /etc/sudoers" and it's saying sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0777, should be 0440
[01:12] <Stormx2> abonilla: libk3b2-mp3
[01:12] <Cthulhu> subsinker, the pleasure is all mine :] 
[01:12] <MarcN> tymchn: it works just like on a single head.
[01:12] <xonic> subsinker:  hold on gonna fix my twinview
[01:12] <jcole> chapium: lol
[01:12] <abonilla> Stormx2: there is a whole list of dependencies
[01:13] <chapium> scribus is a bit odd, but that may have to do
[01:13] <linux_newbie> all the time
[01:13] <stevekl> linux_newbie: ah, a paradox.
[01:13] <Stormx2> abonilla: So install em ;)
[01:13] <linux_newbie> stevekl: what the hell is that ? lol
[01:13] <tymchn> MarcN cool thanks alot
[01:13] <subsinker> xonic: kk, but make quick.... got an exam today/tomorrow
[01:13] <stevekl> linux_newbie: It's a catch 22. Hold on, i'm thinking.
[01:13] <linux_newbie> thank you
[01:13] <xonic> subsinker:  same here finals
[01:13] <linux_newbie> Im kind of lost
[01:13] <xonic> subsinker:  will make it quick
[01:13] <subsinker> Cthulhu: nice to hear =)
[01:13] <jcole> there's gotta be a known ati 9600 problem where opengl doesn't work... right?
[01:13] <jcole> or am i goinf crazy
[01:14] <stevekl> linux_newbie: Well hell the hell did you manage to change the permission of /etc/sudoers in the first place?
[01:14] <subsinker> xonic: Ur Gernan, aren't you?
[01:14] <abonilla> Stormx2: the last package did it, k3b-mp3 wouldn't
[01:14] <MarcN> hi jcole!
[01:14] <jcole> stevekl: chmod -R 777 /
[01:14] <Dreamglider> if there are wireless networks around my location how/with what can i see them ?
[01:14] <linux_newbie> stevekl: I was testing some commands :/
[01:14] <jcole> MarcN: hey dude
[01:14] <Stormx2> Could someone please /msg me with the answer to this question... I'm too lazy to look through my logs in the morning (I'm going to bed now). What packages do I need to fix this: autogen.sh: line 68: aclocal-1.9: command not found    *error* aclocal-1.9 failed. (exit code = 127). Thanks!
[01:14] <Stormx2> abonilla: Yeah i think it's name changed.
[01:14] <linux_newbie> stevekl: I thought I could test it and quickly change it back..
[01:15] <Cthulhu> Dreamglider, iwlist <interface> scan
[01:15] <MarcN> Dreamglider: install gnome-network-monitor and add NetworkManager applet to your panel.  It will show available networks.
[01:15] <chapium> awe, scribus has such a pretty splash screen
[01:15] <stevekl> linux_newbie: Well I honesly don't know what to tell you, sorry. If you can, boot off the liveCD, mount the / partition and chmod it back to 440
[01:15] <linux_newbie> stevekl alright Ill try
[01:16] <sorush20> guys how do I optimize my kubuntu ubuntu boot up time?

[01:16] <suprchris> what can anyone suggest to play dvd's
[01:16] <hiway> chris: totem.
[01:16] <stevekl> sorush20: install rcconf, run it as root, and disable all the services you don't need
[01:16] <madw_> subsinker: xine

[01:17] <sorush20> thanks Keps stevekl
[01:17] <xonic> subsinker:  im not german
[01:17] <xonic> whats the code to edit the xorg.conf file?
[01:18] <subsinker> xonic: Oh... sorry ^^ could have been, since ur in the exams like nearly every German in this time ^^
[01:18] <LjL> xonic: don't edit it
[01:18] <Keps> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:18] <muaddib> I have a bunch of file that total over a million however the size of each file is no more then 10 meg
[01:18] <muaddib> any suggestions on how to move them from one server to another
[01:18] <LjL> xonic: use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, unless you absolutely need to edit it, in which case, just prefix "sudo" to your favourite editor
[01:19] <Keps> make a backup before you messthings up: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup
[01:19] <megaman123> sorry all..but can anyone help me with setting up my dv card ... im supposed to have /dev/dvb folder (which was working just fine in 5.10) but now its gone (after update to 6.06) ... need help with devices ?
[01:19] <jcole> xonic: vi
[01:19] <jcole> xonic: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:19] <subsinker> LjL: U mean suffix, i think, or dont't you?
[01:20] <LjL> subsinker: uhm no, you *prefix* sudo to the command. sudo comes *before* (pre-) the command
[01:20] <MarcN> muaddib: rsync
[01:20] <jcole> xonic: that'll backup your old one too
[01:20] <_sojourner> help my panels are dead, reinstall no help ,dpkg-reconfigure no help
[01:21] <subsinker> LjL: Yeah... understood you... but thought, the next command is the "suffix" so you call it "to suffix" - was a thinking error ^^
[01:21] <muaddib> MarcN: It seems that rsync only transfer 20 files every 15-20 secs
[01:21] <muaddib> is there a way to have it take more
[01:21] <Dimitris> Anyone knows how to enable full duplex sound in dapper?  I can't hear anything else while playing an mp3 and i can use skype when i use amsn. It blocks the sound card and i can't use skype.
[01:21] <gavagai> muaddib, make a tar.gz archive and transfer that?
[01:21] <visik7> LjL are u ljlane@debian.org ?
[01:22] <LjL> subsinker: well, you could say "you suffix the command to sudo", i guess... though "suffix" as a very doesn't sound right, but that might be just me
[01:22] <eclypse> hey all

[01:23] <Sphygmos> ok.. still no luck with xinerama.. i looked at my Xorg.0.log, and it shows both monitors.. then it shows Xinerama: enabled.. but for some reason i'm not seeing anything on the second monitor
[01:23] <Sphygmos> can anyone help?
[01:23] <LjL> _Nick: can you *reinstall* it?
[01:24] <Sphygmos> the two monitors are cloned when it boots.. but once Xorg starts the second monitor shuts off
[01:24] <LjL> _Nick: as in "sudo apt-get --reinstall install libc6"

[01:25] <Keps> yes
[01:25] <eclypse> this is a tar.bz2 btw.
[01:25] <eclypse> the unzip thing doesn't seem to be working.
[01:25] <Kman> It still doesn't work
[01:25] <LjL> lime4x4: uhm, try it again. that's a weird error i think
[01:25] <Kman> I used gparted, manual and the slider, nothing works
[01:25] <lime4x4> i've been trying for over a week with the same errors
[01:25] <Dreamglider> MarcN, when i type NetworkManager in terminal nothing happens, i cant see anything at all !
[01:25] <LjL> eclypse: then you don't want to unzip it at all, you don't unzip bz2's
[01:25] <_Nick> LjL, didn't work, I got some errors with it
[01:25] <Kman> just gives me an error that i dont have enough space or that it cant copy or anything on my hd

[01:26] <Keps> thats weird, maybe your partition lable is corrupted
[01:26] <Keps> thats a hard one
[01:26] <Kman> i know
[01:26] <Kman> its crazy
[01:27] <LjL> lime4x4: you're having a problem that i think i never encountered before...
[01:27] <Kman> I'm prolly gonna end up formatting my disk,
[01:27] <Kman> and then triple boot
[01:27] <Kman> lo
[01:27] <lime4x4> great...lol
[01:27] <Kman> XP, Ubuntu, and Vista
[01:27] <Kman> Have the whole kablooey
[01:27] <LjL> lime4x4: try using another mirror, like fr.archive.ubuntu.com or something
[01:27] <megaman123> how can i install a device ?
[01:27] <Keps> you can give that a shot, but i might wont work because the partition lable could be that bad damaged that even cant format
[01:27] <Kman> There's nothin i can do then huh
[01:27] <made> hello all
[01:27] <lime4x4> i thought maybe it was the US archives that were messed up so i removed the US and it still does it
[01:27] <Keps> coz he doesnt see you disk
[01:28] <Keps> im not sure that is the problem, but it could be
[01:28] <jdbolt> hi i was wondering if someone could tell me how to indent text in abiword - cant seem to find an icon for it :)
[01:28] <Kman> it might be
[01:28] <LjL> lime4x4: (you do that by editing /etc/apt/sources.list, adding changing "archive.ubuntu.com" into "fr.archive.ubuntu.com" - then sudo apt-get update)
[01:28] <LjL> lime4x4: i think us.archive.ubuntu.com and archive.ubuntu.com are actually the same site
[01:28] <Keps> because your no seeying anything but a blanc screen when he tries to boot from your disk
[01:29] <lime4x4> ok i'll try adding the fr and c if that helps
[01:29] <stevekl> I find that with font smoothing/AA enabled, any fonts that are lower than 14 in size are ugly, but any fonts 14 or bigger look really, really good
[01:29] <Kman> yea
[01:29] <stevekl> Am I the only one who experiences this?
[01:29] <tyrchyus> I have a problem with quake 3
[01:29] <jdbolt> maybe maximum the a :)
[01:29] <Keps> if you  have some files you want to keep, try to back them up on a usb stick or something, then try a full format
[01:29] <tyrchyus> is seen alone in window
[01:29] <Keps> if that doesnt work, you have got to take a look at tools like killdisk
[01:30] <eclypse> ok
[01:30] <tyrchyus> the installation of Xgl have gotten myself this problem?  xgl leaves with the order thefuture
[01:30] <eclypse> it gets stuck on configure on the last step it seems
[01:30] <made> I have lost all interest in XGL
[01:30] <eclypse> this is as a result of running ./configure
[01:30] <eclypse> I get the following error
[01:30] <eclypse> checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[01:30] <Keps> that program just kills your diks in a way that the disk becomes clean from scratch.
[01:30] <eclypse> what should I do?
[01:30] <_aaron> is there an ndiswrapper repository for ubuntu?
[01:30] <LjL> eclypse: sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-dev
[01:30] <SyL> made: what made you do that?
[01:31] <lime4x4>  LjL that worked thanks
[01:31] <sorush20> guys what is destar
[01:31] <made> I have tried for a solid 24 hours to get xgl working
[01:31] <tyrchyus> How can I resolve?
[01:31] <made> I didn't sleep for that whole period of time..
[01:31] <aeon17x> made: what part did you get stuck on?
[01:31] <LjL> lime4x4: cool, you'll probably want to set the mirrors back to us. in a day or two (unless you find the french mirrors are fast)
[01:31] <chapium> Made, i'm sorry
[01:31] <SyL> made: what is your error? I'm trying to get it to work with my Geforce 4 card
[01:31] <made> I don't want to remember it at all
[01:31] <Haydre> made: I'm waiting until October, as Edgy Eft comes with it built in
[01:32] <made> I have a gefore fx 6600gt
[01:32] <lime4x4> well i was trying the us mirrors for over a week
[01:32] <spikeb> Haydre: that hasn't been decided for sure yet
[01:32] <SyL> made: which directions did you follow?
[01:32] <eclypse> is it true that XGL will remede the performance issues with Gnome? graphics wise
[01:32] <eclypse> I always had an issue with gnome
[01:32] <sorush20> !destar
[01:32] <ubotu> sorush20: My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:32] <made> I tried method 1 then 2..
[01:32] <eclypse> where it would take a quarter second to load menus and all that.
[01:32] <aeon17x> actually, for me, XGL makes everything a bit choppier
[01:33] <LjL> lime4x4: well, i'm using the italian mirrors, so i wouldn't know if anything's wrong with the US mirrors, but i'd doubt they'd leave them broken for a week...
[01:33] <chapium> there has got to be an alternative to scribus
[01:33] <chapium> that thing is a bear
[01:33] <made> from the wiki.. and I also tried the ones posted on the #ubuntu-xgl
[01:33] <aeon17x> but the window animations and desktop spinning is smooth
[01:33] <chapium> a very very crippled sick bear
[01:33] <eclypse> ic
[01:33] <LjL> chapium: i don't think you'll find *many* alternatives, though you'll probably find one or two. what about just using a word processor? those things can do a lot of layouting nowadays
[01:33] <SyL> made: I'm trying to use the ones on ubuntuguide.org...
[01:33] <tristanmike> I installed Azureus via the repositories, but when I minimize/close to system tray, it dissapears. Does anyone know why this happens or how to fix
[01:34] <spikeb> kword can do EXCELLENT layout
[01:34] <eclypse> well...
[01:34] <eclypse> I was beginning to like Gnome
[01:34] <eclypse> ever since Dapper
[01:34] <SyL> now I'm getting "can't find GLX modules" and "can't find NVIDIA modules" and no display
[01:34] <LjL> spikeb: yup, although it's a bit temperamental
[01:34] <sorush20> !dmnger
[01:34] <ubotu> sorush20: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:34] <chapium> spikeb, thanks! although i'm in gnome
[01:34] <made> SyL: those are good one's to follow. I wish you luck on your journey
[01:34] <eclypse> but it performs like crap on my laptop
[01:34] <eclypse> it sucks
[01:34] <spikeb> chapium: so am i
[01:34] <chapium> but if it gets the job done, so be it
[01:34] <eclypse> KDE seems soo much faster then it...
[01:34] <chapium> spikeb++
[01:34] <eclypse> guys
[01:34] <spikeb> sup eclypse
[01:34] <eclypse> does anyone else here have performance issues with Gnome
[01:34] <eclypse> sup
[01:34] <LjL> chapium: you can still isntall KWord if you like, you'll just get a few libraries with it (sudo aptitude install kword will allow you to remove them easily later)
[01:34] <made> I'm having a very simple problem with my audio..
[01:35] <spikeb> eclypse: lots of people
[01:35] <spikeb> eclypse: gnome/gtk have performance issues
[01:35] <aeon17x> made: join #ubuntu-xgl so they can help you specifically with xgl
[01:35] <made> I have searched and pondered for a very long time..
[01:35] <LjL> chapium: scribus itself is a Qt/KDE program, so it'll have installed some of those already
[01:35] <spikeb> eclypse: but ewith each release, more and more of those are getting killed
[01:35] <eclypse> yeah
[01:35] <eclypse> well
[01:35] <eclypse> I always noticed that it took a quarter second to load icons in the top menu and all that
[01:35] <eclypse> and it just seemed very graphically slow
[01:35] <chapium> LjL: I here you need to install another library to make qt not look gross.  Do you know which one it is? (its kde related)
[01:35] <eclypse> I thought my graphics card wasent working for the longest time
[01:35] <made> no more xgl for me..
[01:35] <eclypse> but it turned out to be gnome
[01:35] <eclypse> anyoe have similar issues?
[01:35] <eclypse> anyone*
[01:35] <Snowfairy> Is there a command to update your wallpaper?  (Kind of how when you click on a wallpaper but don't actually change to it in desktop background preferences?)
[01:36] <LjL> chapium: wouldn't really know.. i'm using KDE, so that's the kind of problem I can have with *Gnome* programs ;-)
[01:36] <chapium> Made: you wouldnt want it anyways... shift+backspace is mapped to restarting X
[01:36] <LjL> chapium: but i think Dapper, by default, uses a reasonable enough theme for KDE inside Gnome... at least I think it did for me when I last tried
[01:36] <eclypse> also, the ./configure problem still remains
[01:36] <made> When I open sound recorder I get this error "Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings"
[01:37] <eclypse> checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[01:37] <spikeb> install the x dev libs
[01:37] <LjL> chapium: perhaps you could install qt3-qtconfig, that will allow you to select from a (limited) set of (not-very-good) themes
[01:37] <eclypse> I think I did already
[01:38] <eclypse> but it doesn't seem to be working atm.
[01:38] <chapium> how does koffice compare to openoffice?
[01:38] <sorush20> guys would I need to run this on my computer,  dirmngr = module that handles certificate revocation lists for gpgsm
[01:38] <made> When I open sound recorder I get this error "Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings"
[01:38] <LjL> chapium: i like it better as a concept -- it's less bloated, both from a performance and a GUI-cluttering point of view... however, it crashes
[01:39] <LjL> chapium: i try to use koffice whenever i can, but i end up having openoffice installed too most of the time
[01:39] <chapium> thats got to be the main reason i avoid kde... things tend to crash for me
[01:39] <made> *When I open sound recorder I get this error "Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings"
[01:39] <chapium> LjL: if its faster, and compatible with the ms documents we are fed, it should be nice since this is a low end system
[01:40] <spikeb> chapium: openoffice is THE premier free office suite. it does everything and is very compatible. koffice is very nice, but better for actually making hard copies with than making electornic copies
[01:40] <roostishaw> how do i use tor with gaim beta?
[01:40] <LjL> chapium: it's certainly faster to load... i think it's also faster during operation
[01:41] <LjL> chapium: for a low end system, you could also give AbiWord a try. it's surely more stable than KWord, though it's probably the one with the smallest feature set (but good enough for many purposes)
[01:41] <spikeb> abiword is awesome
[01:41] <spikeb> but like kword, has issues with opendoc
[01:42] <sorush20> do I need fetchmail?
[01:42] <chapium> i had issues with abiword
[01:42] <LjL> chapium: on the other hand, i'm not sure kword is a good choice for a low end system that's running *Gnome*. it'll mean loading up the KDE libraries *as well* as the gnome libraries, which will probably make startup time go up, and keep more RAM filled
[01:43] <Snowfairy> Is there a command to force X or Gnome (whatever handles it) to update the desktop wallpaper?
[01:43] <chapium> thats what i was thinking, but again, its got to be better than scribus for layouts
[01:43] <andreasdk> Evening
[01:43] <LjL> chapium: kde doesn't crash *too* much in my experience, although koffice itself certainly does. konqueror crashes a bit too much these times (at least here), but it's very fast to recover with the "Crash" plug-in, if nothing else
[01:43] <andreasdk> How do I enable .wmv in Dapper?
[01:43] <Dreamglider> can anyone tell me why Firefox shuts down 1 ro 2 seconds aftler loading this page www.sparikassin.fo (it's my banks page)
[01:44] <LjL> chapium: i dunno about that, scribus is *intended* for layouting, while kword is intended as a word processor -- though it's actually much more layout-oriented that openoffice writer
[01:44] <chapium> Dreamglider: have you tried it in safemode (it might be an extension)
[01:44] <Milk_> Good evening!!!
[01:44] <LjL> chapium: scribus certainly looked kind of ugly/unintuitive when i tried it
[01:44] <andreasdk> http://www.sparikassin.fo/ works like a charm here
[01:44] <chapium> LjL: its very very glithcy
[01:44] <Milk_> I'm having problems with Samba printing to a printer on an XP machine.  IT worked after initial install, but then quit, and I'm not sure why
[01:45] <Dreamglider> chapium, how
[01:45] <stevekl> opinion poll: gnomebaker or k3b GO
[01:45] <andreasdk> gnomebaker
[01:45] <Keps> http://www.sparikassin.fo let firefox crash when i close the tab
[01:45] <stevekl> come on guys I need some consenseus
[01:45] <__mikem> Does anyone know if madpenguin is going to do a review of ubuntu dapper drake
[01:46] <hegemon> Have the ubuntu lawyers looked into how the COPE act could affect ubuntu?
[01:46] <chapium> Dreamglider: i'm not sure :D  try firefox --safemode or man firefox firefox -help, etc etc
[01:46] <SyL> ok, I followed the directions off of ubuntuguides.org to set up XGL, and now my X doesn't start at all. compains that it can't find the nvidia driver and that it can't find a screen to display on
[01:46] <uXp> hello

[01:47] <anzio_> I get that error actually on three accounts but I figured 1 would suffice
[01:47] <uXp> im on winddows not but whoever told me to do the twinview is $#%#$%
[01:47] <stevekl> anzio_: remove that entry from sources.list
[01:47] <Milk_> Anyone had any issues with printing?
[01:47] <anzio_> ok
[01:47] <sorush20> if I stop gdm will I be unable to run gnome programs/
[01:47] <andreasdk> milk: Nope!
[01:47] <anzio_> assuming I can find sorces.list with a pc search?
[01:47] <__mikem> sorush20 why do you need to stop gdm
[01:48] <Dreamglider> chapium, it stoped and reported *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (fast): 0xb2c61cd8 ***
[01:48] <uXp> help
[01:48] <roostishaw> anyone, what is a good program to use for ssh, besides the built-in one?
[01:48] <__mikem> uXp could you be more specific, what do you mean your system is screwed up
[01:48] <Snowfairy> Is there a command to force gnome to redraw the wallpaper?
[01:48] <sorush20> _mikem I need to increase the speed of boot up and since I'm running kde
[01:48] <Dreamglider> chapium, what can i do about this ?
[01:48] <stevekl> anzio_: It's in /etc/apt/
[01:48] <hegemon> Have the Ubuntu/Canonical lawyers looked into how the COPE act(H.R. 5252) could affect Ubuntu/Canonical?
[01:48] <__mikem> you could use KDM
[01:48] <stevekl> Christ...

[01:49] <apokryphos> tux0010: 1.5 is available
[01:50] <uXp> anyone?
[01:50] <tux0010> apokryphos, what do i search for?
[01:50] <apokryphos> tux0010: check the faq
[01:50] <tux0010> can't seem to find it :(
[01:50] <tristanmike> Hi, I need some help with Azureus please.  I installed via the repositories, but when I minimize/close to system tray, it dissapears, I have to select it from the menu in order to access it again. Also, when I get pop up messages from it, they don't go away when I click the "Hide" button. Does anyone else have this issue or know what might be wrong ?.
[01:50] <__mikem> uXp we can't help you unless you are more specific
[01:50] <Shyne> made I think so. totem can play my mp3 fine
[01:50] <eclypse> checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[01:50] <foxiness> tux0010, java
[01:50] <eclypse> how do I fix this?
[01:50] <__mikem> messed up could mean so many things
[01:50] <eclypse> exactly
[01:50] <uXp> i just told you
[01:50] <enyc> tux0010: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[01:50] <uXp> when i try to boot up ubuntu, the xserver is messed up, is there a way i can go and edit my xorg.conf file?
[01:50] <apokryphos> eclypse: check the faq on compiling
[01:50] <SyL> uXp: I'm trying to help you, but I need to know what the error is. I need more then "screwed up" and "Messed up"
[01:50] <made> yeah I don't like totem..
[01:50] <__mikem> Ok, what do you mean by messed up. Do you get an error message?
[01:50] <Shyne> but it works and amarok doesnt :/
[01:50] <eclypse> where at?
[01:50] <Shyne> amarok looks great however
[01:50] <uXp> xserver gets error, ubuntu cannot load up xserver
[01:50] <eclypse> can you link me to the FAQ
[01:51] <SyL> uXp: look for a text editor called "nano"
[01:51] <made> amarok is loved by millions
[01:51] <__mikem> uXp, before you do, try a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:51] <eclypse> what
[01:51] <LjL> uXp: i think they're asking you *what* is the error that it gives
[01:51] <uXp> omg
[01:51] <uXp> xserver cannot load the interface
[01:51] <made> if you read up on the software itself .. there are alot of people who would like to see it ported to windows.. but that will never happen..
[01:51] <__mikem> LjL, he gave the error,
[01:52] <eclypse> wheres the compiling FAQ?
[01:52] <uXp> xserver cannot load the interface
[01:52] <LjL> __mikem, uXp: ok, sorry then
[01:52] <__mikem> uXp, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:52] <P3L|C4N0> greetings
[01:52] <spikeb> never say never
[01:52] <uXp> did it says

[01:52] <made> I wish somebody could help me with my sound issues...
[01:52] <made> *When I open sound recorder I get this error "Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings"
[01:52] <__mikem> uXp, pastebin your xorg.conf file
[01:52] <Snowfairy> Is there a command to force gnome to redraw the desktop background?
[01:53] <}btorch{> is there a way to boot up ubuntu under xen
[01:53] <__mikem> LjL, you can be the one to look at it. ITs obviously a case where it doesn't know what display to use, but I don't know what could be causing that problem
[01:53] <__mikem> IT should be using display 00
[01:53] <LjL> eclypse: try "strace ./configure | grep open", that should tell you which file it isn't finding precisely
[01:53] <Shyne> what do u think the problem is made , if totem can play the clips fine ?
[01:53] <made> /////////******--->>> *When I open sound recorder I get this error "Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings"
[01:53] <roostishaw> anyone, what is a good program to use for ssh, besides the built-in one?
[01:53] <zanzaba> um, dsl ppl: i'm running dsl embed and am wondering how to browse my hda
[01:54] <uXp> _mikem, i know what i added to my xorg.conf i just need to go in and edit it, but it won't let me edit the xorg.conf file, i get the error" cannot display (null)
[01:54] <made> I haven't had that problem so I couldn't tell how to fix it...
[01:54] <cherwin> roostishaw: putty
[01:54] <SyL> uXp: USE NANO!!!!
[01:54] <LjL> uXp: then edit it from the console?
[01:54] <roostishaw> there is one for linux?
[01:54] <uXp> code?
[01:54] <eclypse> wow
[01:54] <cherwin> roostishaw: but the console is much much better
[01:54] <LjL> uXp: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:54] <uXp> i can't form t he console!!!
[01:54] <eclypse> tuns of code with that command
[01:54] <eclypse> lol
[01:54] <eclypse> can't even keep up lol
[01:54] <__mikem> uXp, before you do, in the terminal type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[01:54] <uXp> pl LjL let me try that
[01:54] <LjL> eclypse: yeah, i know
[01:54] <made> I haven't had that problem so I couldn't tell how to fix it...
[01:54] <uXp> mike i did
[01:54] <eclypse> its crazy lol
[01:54] <made> /////////******--->>> *When I open sound recorder I get this error "Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings"
[01:54] <cherwin> roostishaw: yes you have to compile it yourself though, just read the README and INSTALL
[01:55] <uXp> get same error on both of them
[01:55] <LjL> eclypse: you can try another thing that gives a bit less output
[01:55] <eclypse> lol
[01:55] <uXp> reconfigure and gedit
[01:55] <eclypse> well
[01:55] <eclypse> it finished
[01:55] <roostishaw> cherwin, but i need a way to use tor with ssh, how do i do this?
[01:55] <eclypse> apparently
[01:55] <tux0010> sorry about that
[01:55] <eclypse> but, the make command isant working
[01:55] <eclypse> it says, no makefile found
[01:55] <__mikem> uXp it shouldn't be trying to load a display when you do the dpkg-reconfigure
[01:55] <__mikem> It should be ncurses based
[01:56] <cherwin> roostishaw: what do you mean? just download the source code of putty and then compile it. Run the executeable afterwards and you're good to go
[01:56] <JakeDude> Everytime I turn on ubuntu, after Verifying DMI Pool.. it just says "boot from cd" a couple of times.. then says boot from cd failure, please insert system disk. Upon inserting the ubuntu live cd it just takes me to standard live cd boot :( giving me the option to install ect.
[01:56] <LjL> eclypse: install the "auto-apt" package. then "sudo auto-apt update", then wait. then "sudo auto-apt run ./configure". this will automatically "guess" what packages are missing, and ask you whether you want to install them. however, it'll get a few wrong... so don't start installing everything it asks for. no Perl, no Fortran 77 compiler, etc ;-)
[01:56] <cherwin> roostishaw: it's a gui program
[01:56] <roostishaw> cherwin, i know
[01:56] <__mikem> JakeDude, remove the CD from the drive
[01:56] <snips> How does one integrate KDE applicartions into GNOME? eg Konversation?
[01:56] <roostishaw> cherwin, but is there a way to connect annonymously?
[01:56] <LjL> eclypse: make isn't supposed to work, strace just listed the files that ./configure was trying to open
[01:56] <__mikem> snips just install them, they should run
[01:56] <LjL> eclypse: pastebin the output and i'll try to have a look
[01:56] <tux0010> what was the java link again?
[01:56] <JakeDude> lol. I said the cd wasen't in there and I got the error.. then *UPON* inserting it I booted to it :(
[01:56] <snips> but what about making them look similar?
[01:56] <tristanmike> !tell tux0010 about java
[01:57] <cherwin> roostishaw: you mean connect to a other ssh server anonymouse?
[01:57] <__mikem> JakeDude, did you install the OS
[01:57] <roostishaw> cherwin, ya
[01:57] <eclypse> LjL:trying now.
[01:57] <uXp> im going to try the nano etc/X11/xorg.conf then the dbpk, ill be back
[01:57] <tux0010> thanks
[01:57] <cherwin> roostishaw: yes it's quite simple but why do you want to do that?
[01:57] <made> WHY IS NOBODY EVEN SAYING HI TO ME>>
[01:57] <__mikem> good idea

[01:57] <__mikem> ok

[01:58] <__mikem> JakeDude, bare in mind that the disk is a live cd, you have to install it using the wizzard for it to work

[02:02] <apokryphos> eclypse: have you read the compiling links on the FAQ?
[02:02] <tux0010> its posted as my alias tux0010

[02:02] <__mikem> who still uses links
[02:03] <LjL> eclypse: did it ask for any packages at all?
[02:03] <SyL> apokryphos: thanks
[02:03] <billybennett> what is SVN in linux terms mean?
[02:03] <iiiears> "Intel Archetecture" 386
[02:03] <cherwin> roostishaw: cause you didn't read the docs that come with the code, it's explained exactly how to compile that code. it will not work with just ./configure
[02:03] <__mikem> IA I believe stands for Intel Archetecture
[02:03] <eclypse> sailed miserably even to run :P
[02:03] <SyL> apokryphos: does that mean I'm hosed? =)

[02:03] <eclypse> also, it never asked for any packages

[02:03] <apokryphos> eclypse: read the channel topic

[02:05] <__mikem> ubotu tell b08y about abuse

[02:06] <Rainier> what could be wrong?
[02:06] <JakeDude> So theres no way to repair an install via the ubuntu cd? without loosing all my data and such :/
[02:06] <apokryphos> JakeDude: repair what exactly?
[02:06] <cafuego> JakeDude: How do you mean?
[02:06] <__mikem> Rainier, do a google search on "chain loading"
[02:06] <b08y> does ony one know, about an DC Client 4 Ubuntu?
[02:06] <SyL> apokryphos: after I installed the XGL packages that it wanted be to install X took a crap and I've been in text mode every since. I will check out the FAQ
[02:06] <cherwin> roostishaw: http://pastebin.com/707642 you cannot say that you read the README cause you really didn't, you can at least be honest with me
[02:06] <Rainier> ok thanx
[02:07] <__mikem> yw
[02:07] <apokryphos> SyL: I recommend just trying to undo whatever it recommends, really.
[02:07] <loanwolf> ? whats the best way to partition ubuntu dapper drake 6.06
[02:07] <roostishaw> cherwin, ok. sorry, but do you think i would lie to you when im trying to get help? cmon man...   :D
[02:07] <tomnix> night all
[02:07] <SyL> apokryphos: haha. reinstall number 2 for today. I couldn't undo it if I tried. =)
[02:07] <__mikem> THe best way is to use a seperate boot drive
[02:07] <tux0010> _jason2, thanks
[02:07] <JakeDude> cafuego: well.. my install seems to be damaged. It worked and now its having trouble booting.. I figured there may be a repair feature that checks system files and/or boot sequences and such :S
[02:08] <apokryphos> SyL: dang.. you really should never have to do a reinstall.
[02:08] <cherwin> roostishaw: np, but did you see it? cd to the unix dir and then 'make -f Makefile.gtk'
[02:08] <jatilq> that was strange
[02:08] <Rainier> sorry I didn't explain well
[02:08] <__mikem> apokryphos why did you just go op
[02:08] <cafuego> JakeDude: No, your best bet is to boot on rescue mode and note *where* the boot fails. Then you can use the cd to log in to the install and fix the problem.
[02:08] <Rainier> I CAN start windows manually when i restart
[02:08] <loanwolf> i only have 1..120 gig drive with 50 gig for linux
[02:08] <SyL> apokryphos: yeah, I agree. but at this point I'm thinking it would just be faster. I just won't wipe my home directories
[02:08] <apokryphos> __mikem: I didn't, I deoped.
[02:09] <__mikem> oh
[02:09] <jatilq> my laptops fan would not come on, I load kororaa's livecd and then load ubuntu back up and the fan is on
[02:09] <sorush20> guys I'm not so sure if I need mysql-common package
[02:09] <Rainier> but when you restart kubuntu you can choose windows directly so it does it automatically
[02:09] <sorush20> how do I find out what other programs are depending on it?
[02:09] <apokryphos> SyL: yes, having a seperate /home helps
[02:09] <cafuego> sorush20: Just sue syanptic or apt-get. it will be installed if it's needed.
[02:09] <Rainier> thats the part that doesn't work
[02:09] <lw4xl> hey can anyone point me in the right direction
[02:09] <cafuego> lw4xl: try west
[02:09] <lw4xl> to a site for customizing xubuntu
[02:09] <apokryphos> sorush20: use rdepends with apt
[02:09] <cafuego> oh :-)
[02:09] <vinboy> hi
[02:09] <__mikem> ITs obviously using the windows boot loader rather than grub by sdefault, fixing this varies based on what bios you are using
[02:10] <cafuego> !xubuntu
[02:10] <ubotu> somebody said xubuntu was Ubuntu using Xfce instead of Gnome for the desktop. Details here: https://www.xubuntu.org
[02:10] <lw4xl> for tweaking it
[02:10] <vinboy> how do I compile package from source?? with optimization such as (-march=athlon-xp)
[02:10] <cafuego> lw4xl: Have a google for xfce themes... that should turn up some stuff.
[02:10] <Dreamglider> why does network monitor not show wlan0 ?
[02:10] <__mikem> www.xfce-look.org
[02:10] <loanwolf> is this a good lay out for partitions..  / ...  /swap ... /home
[02:10] <cafuego> vinboy: Step one is to realise there is no point.
[02:10] <lw4xl> thanx
[02:10] <Dreamglider> i only see lo and eth0
[02:11] <cafuego> loanwolf: Works fine for all my machines.
[02:11] <SyL> apokryphos: what was the URL for the FAQ? I'm not seeing the XGL area (but I am using links so that could be part of the problem)
[02:11] <loanwolf> ok
[02:11] <cafuego> loanwolf: 6GB /, 1GB swap, rest /home
[02:11] <apokryphos> SyL: better to troubleshoot your current problem first I think.
[02:11] <roostishaw> cherwin, its compiling now, but it says every few lines   gtk-config: command not found
[02:12] <roostishaw> cherwin, is that normal?
[02:12] <__mikem> On a gnome system that shouldn't be happening
[02:12] <roostishaw> cherwin, nvm, i got the error:  make: *** [sshzlib.o]  Error 1
[02:12] <apokryphos> SyL: what do you get when gdm's dead (sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop) and then you startx as user?
[02:12] <loanwolf> ok..that all sounds good
[02:12] <Rainier> does anyone know how to make the restart-windows function work?
[02:12] <zxc333> Anyone know how I can unistall Ubuntu?
[02:13] <cherwin> roostishaw: you don't have all the gtk packages installed
[02:13] <__mikem> zxc333 why in gods name would you want to do that
[02:13] <Rainier> you know when you select windows in the restart menu and its supposed to start automatically?
[02:13] <SyL> apokryphos: willing to take a crack at it?
[02:13] <Matthewv> zxc333, reinstall windows :P
[02:13] <stevekl> zxc333: Format the partition(s) it's on
[02:13] <apokryphos> SyL: sure, try the above.
[02:13] <__mikem> Rainier, yes
[02:13] <zxc333> Will formatting the partitions get rid of Grub?
[02:13] <roostishaw> cherwin, how do i install all of them?
[02:13] <__mikem> zxc333 if you get rid of the boot partition then yes
[02:13] <SyL> apokryphos: stand by
[02:13] <Rainier> __mikem: could you give me a hint please? cause i dont know where to start
[02:14] <Rainier> __mikem: do you need grub2 maybe?
[02:14] <zxc333> mikem: is the boot partition /
[02:14] <cherwin> roostishaw: that's for you to find out, i'm a slackware user. maybe 'apt-cache search gtk' will show you the gtk packages
[02:14] <__mikem> zxc333 no thats your root filesystem
[02:14] <Sayz> My cd won't do anything after the cursor and background appear on screen
[02:14] <__mikem> Rainier the problem is, how to do it depends on what bios you are using
[02:14] <Sayz> It won't boot to the actual desktop, just to the status box
[02:14] <loanwolf> zxc333: why you want to uninstall ubuntu
[02:14] <stevekl> So why are we helping zxc333?
[02:14] <stevekl> Seriously, if he's not going to use linux then why does he expect help from us
[02:14] <Sayz> The md5sum is fine, though
[02:15] <apokryphos> stevekl: because it's his/her choice :)
[02:15] <gavagai> uninstalling linux on a machine hardly entails that someone is not going to use linux
[02:15] <apokryphos> stevekl: because the question is ubuntu-related, still.
[02:15] <stevekl> apokryphos: Deserving our help isn't his choice
[02:15] <__mikem> stevekl aggreed
[02:15] <zxc333> mikem: I've only made partitions for /, /home and /swap... which ones the boot partitions
[02:15] <SyL> wubrgamer: it's NFS, so there is no "URL" that you can type in a webbrowser
[02:15] <tux0010> man, there is some other type of gnu java
[02:15] <AlienX> zxc333, your root partition has /boot in it :)
[02:15] <gnomefreak> stevekl: its still ubuntu support
[02:15] <zxc333> Don't get me wrong, I love Ubuntu but it's impossible to set up with my winmodem
[02:15] <__mikem> zxc333 if you didn't create a /boot partition, it would be imposible to boot
[02:16] <wubrgamer> hey guys, how do i mount an NFS share that is physically on my dekstop, on my laptop ?
[02:16] <_jason2_> zxc333: have you been to the wiki page on winmodems? I just setup a conexant one and it wasn't too bad
[02:16] <roostishaw> cherwin, there's like... a thousand of them...
[02:16] <SyL> apokryphos: "failed to load module "glx", "failed to load module nvidia", "Fatal server error: no screens found"
[02:16] <dou213> zxc333, if you didn't specify a /boot partition, it creates one automatically as root
[02:16] <apokryphos> SyL: do you have an nvidia card?
[02:16] <zxc333> yeah I've done about 6 formats , 2 kernal compilings and spent more than a week trying to do it...it's mainly driver side problems
[02:16] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell wubrgamer -about nfs
[02:17] <zxc333> dou123: thanks, that's what I did
[02:17] <__mikem> Instalation was as smooth as could be for me. Part of the reason why ubuntu remains my distro of choice
[02:17] <Rainier> __mikem: hmm ok so its complicated i guess, is there any how-to maybe that explains the process?
[02:17] <SyL> apokryphos: yeah, and it was all working before I tried the XGL stuff
[02:18] <zxc333> I'll be back to Ubuntu as soon as I have the money to invest in a decent modem :c)
[02:18] <apokryphos> SyL: anyhow, execute this command first: sudo mv /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom-backup /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom && sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:18] <nf4> dose 6.06 use differant mpeg2 codecs
[02:18] <cherwin> roostishaw: i'm sorry that you cannot find the correct packages but debian/ubuntu way's of installing things isn't my terrain. do an extensive google search to find out what went wrong and what you have to install. that way you'll learn much much more instead of beeing spoon-fed
[02:18] <gavagai> you can get a modem for $5 at any salvation army or whatever
[02:18] <gavagai> all those old compies have modems
[02:18] <__mikem> Rainier, yes there is, but you are going to need to ask one of the ops in the room to point you in the right dirrection. I simply don't know the urls for the pages
[02:18] <roostishaw> cherwin, ok... no thanks to you, it was in the repos...
[02:18] <tux0010> :)
[02:18] <tux0010> thanks again
[02:19] <sorush20> apokryphos: I can't use rdepends how?
[02:19] <cherwin> roostishaw: is putty in the repos?
[02:19] <gnomefreak> Rainier: what are you looking for?
[02:19] <Rainier> __mikem: ok thanx
[02:19] <__mikem> any time, and sorry
[02:19] <Sayz> Could someone help me out?
[02:20] <SyL> apokryphos: done
[02:20] <Sayz> My cd isn't working right
[02:20] <Rainier> gnomefreak: hello, I need to configure grub i guess so it can automatically start windows when i choose it in the restart menu
[02:20] <apokryphos> sorush20: heh, I was thinking in rpm mode. You want apt-cache whatdepends <package>
[02:20] <apokryphos> SyL: ok, try startx again now
[02:20] <apokryphos> SyL: as user
[02:20] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Rainier -about grub
[02:21] <Rainier> thanx guys
[02:21] <SyL> apokryphos: same complaint.
[02:21] <apokryphos> SyL: is nvidia-glx installed?
[02:21] <__mikem> In all fairness, I really didn't understand what rainier was asking
[02:21] <SyL> apokryphos: I'm guessing the packages I installed changed some stuff as well as installing stuff...
[02:21] <SyL> apokryphos: I think so, I'll double check
[02:22] <Rainier> __mikem: haha maybe i should mention i use kubuntu
[02:22] <dogafro> burned dvds keep coming out blank - does anyone know what to do? i recently switched from gentoo to ubuntu- same programs worked before and act like they're working now but they're somehow in simulation mode
[02:22] <__mikem> oooohh, yes, that might've helped. Now it makes sence
[02:22] <Rainier> __mikem: it might be a kubuntu feature but when i press the restart button i can choose the different operating systems in grub
[02:22] <zanzaban> hmmmmmm
[02:22] <tonyyarusso> Um, Gaim won't start.  Anybody know what's going on or how to troubleshoot?
[02:22] <__mikem> Yes, there should be a grub.conf file you can modify
[02:22] <apokryphos> SyL: try sudo apt-get remove compiz-gnome xserver-xgl
[02:22] <zanzaban> is ubuntu easier for a newb to "get" than damn small linux?
[02:23] <Rainier> __mikem: so it's supposed to start that system automatically without me choosing it
[02:23] <SyL> apokryphos: that made a different error... hold on
[02:23] <__mikem> Rainier, that makes more sence, look for grub.conf
[02:23] <uXp> im back
[02:23] <uXp> woot my linux works
[02:23] <Matthewv> tonyyarusso, any error?
[02:23] <uXp> quick help tho
[02:23] <zanzaban> and does it support easy mounting of hard drives and usb drive support?
[02:23] <__mikem> Glad to hear it works, what do you need uXp
[02:23] <tonyyarusso> Matthewv: Not yet.  Heading off to start from a term now to check.
[02:23] <apokryphos> __mikem: it's /boot/grub/menu.lst in Ubuntu
[02:23] <uXp> _mikem: would this be correct if i want to add two monitors 2560x1024, 2560x1024@1280x1024; 1280x1024,
[02:24] <gnomefreak> grub is /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:24] <uXp> for the 2560?
[02:24] <uXp> two 17"
[02:24] <_jason2_> zanzaban: ubuntu uses gnome while DSL uses fluxbox as default I believe, for that reason, I think ubuntu may be easier.  And yes you can easily mount your drives
[02:24] <Sayz> Could someone please help me out?
[02:24] <uXp> is that the code tow make it stretch?
[02:24] <__mikem> uXp, I have never used multiple displays before, you will need special software to sink the monitors
[02:24] <uXp> to*
[02:24] <tonyyarusso> Matthewv: Uh oh.  That is, I would be, if gnome-terminal would start.  :X
[02:24] <cherwin> Sayz: with what?
[02:24] <dou213> Sayz, ask ur question
[02:24] <Sayz> Sorry
[02:24] <Sayz> My cd won't boot right
[02:24] <__mikem> I am not sure if ubuntu comes with it pre-installed
[02:25] <cherwin> Sayz: anything to add to that?
[02:25] <uXp> jjthats not hwat i was told
[02:25] <uXp> otherwise i wouldn't be trying it
[02:25] <Sayz> As soon as the cursor comes on screen and the status box appears, it stops doing anything
[02:25] <chris__> DBO here?
[02:25] <chris__> :P
[02:25] <SyL> ok... that was weird.
[02:25] <Matthewv> tonyyarusso, will anything start?
[02:26] <tonyyarusso> Matthewv: Firefox and Thunderbird are up right now.
[02:26] <SyL> apokryphos: I'm checking a few things out here... I didn't have it installed which is weird because I installed it.
[02:26] <cherwin> Sayz: did you already tried boot commands?
[02:26] <chris__> guys i am feeling like upgrading my ubuntu, to the new version was looking at xubuntu what do u think xubuntu or ubuntu?
[02:26] <Matthewv> tonyyarusso, i had something like that once caused by a hdd error, which causes the hdd to drop to read only mode...
[02:26] <Sayz> cherwin: Like what?
[02:26] <cherwin> Sayz: such as noapic nolapic no acpi etc..
[02:26] <zanzaban> eeep
[02:26] <zanzaban> 10 hr download
[02:26] <chris__> anyone like xubuntu?
[02:26] <SyL> NFS dude: msg me back, I've solved your NFS issue
[02:26] <apokryphos> SyL: reinstall with apt-get and then try startx again
[02:26] <DBO> chris_, uhhh, yeah?
[02:26] <Sayz> cherwin: To be honest, I've never heard of them
[02:26] <chris__> DBO remember me!?
[02:26] <wenzlicker> chris just in the process of installing
[02:26] <DBO> mmm, apache right?
[02:27] <Sayz> cherwin: I haven't been able to even boot up 6.06 live once
[02:27] <chris__> yes ding sing sing, and samba ;)
[02:27] <DBO> oh yeah, that too =P
[02:27] <tonyyarusso> Matthewv: Further diagnostics: Gaim will start just fine with "DISPLAY=:0 gaim" from tty3, but I can't start it from within Gnome.
[02:27] <chris__> DBO what do you think xbuntu? or ubuntu?
[02:27] <cherwin> Sayz: just google on boot options and ubuntu startup problems
[02:27] <cherwin> Sayz: you know how to use google right?
[02:27] <Matthewv> tonyyarusso, this sounds real stupid, but what does a restart do?
[02:27] <Sayz> cherwin: Yes, most people can use Google
[02:27] <DBO> chris_, depends on how much processor power and RAM you got.  Xubuntu is great for low power systems, but if I got the RAM for it I use GNOME
[02:28] <chris__> DBO 2.2ghz p4mobile 1gb of ram ;)
[02:28] <xpc> hi
[02:28] <xpc> !hu
[02:28] <ubotu> Ha magyarul beszelsz kerlek probald a #ubuntu-hu
[02:28] <DBO> chris_, thats plenty oh RAM, I would use GNOME or KDE
[02:28] <tonyyarusso> Matthewv: Haven't tried yet.  Probably will in a bit.
[02:28] <chris__> so download xubuntu with gnome?
[02:28] <Sayz> cherwin: This is where I get stuck http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/original.php?release=659&slide=3
[02:29] <chris__> or ubuntu :P
[02:29] <tonyyarusso> Matthewv: I have been using suspend today, which never worked in Breezy, so it might still be buggy.
[02:29] <DBO> chris__, right, regular ubuntu =)
[02:29] <chris__> ok thanks DBO
[02:29] <chris__> :)
[02:29] <SyL> apokryphos: ok, there was a missmatch between the nvidia bin and the ubuntu ones, so I ended up just re(installing) the binary and it's working... weird...
[02:29] <SyL> apokryphos: thanks
[02:29] <SyL> brb
[02:29] <apokryphos> cool :)
[02:30] <cherwin> Sayz: okay before you press enter to boot ubuntu, try some boot options. maybe that'll help.
[02:30] <uXp> who here runs twinview with xgl and compiz?
[02:30] <gnomefreak> uXp: try #ubuntu-xgl
[02:30] <Sayz> cherwin: Alright, thanks
[02:30] <sorush20> do I really need the ubuntu-standard package?
[02:30] <chris__> wish i had a cd :| 1 hour download
[02:31] <chris__> could ubuntu send me cds?
[02:31] <uXp> yes
[02:31] <uXp> www.ubuntu.com
[02:31] <uXp> in the right side
[02:31] <chris__> great
[02:31] <chris__> :)
[02:31] <uXp> cd release or osmehting liek that
[02:31] <gavagai> something tells me the mail system takes longer than 1 hour though
[02:31] <__mikem> hey chris__ a great way to expidite downloads of large files is with this http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/
[02:32] <wubrgamer> hey guys, i need some help connecting to an NFS file share on my desktop machine, i honestly have NO idea how to do it
[02:32] <wubrgamer> help !
[02:32] <__mikem> I was scheptical at first also, but the freedownloadmanager has no spyware, and it works great
[02:32] <chris__> __mikem is that for windows? im not on windows ;) on ubuntu
[02:32] <sorush20> chris__: that is what ubuntu is good at.. sending cd's for free..
[02:32] <chris__> great with free shipping :P?
[02:32] <__mikem> chris__ if you are already in ubuntu, why do you ned cds
[02:32] <gnomefreak> chris__: yes
[02:32] <chris__> upgrading silly
[02:32] <sorush20> oh..

[02:34] <Sayz> cherwin: So far, I'm searching around, but I can't find the problem I have. Could you maybe give me a couple of suggestions for commands to try at boot?
[02:34] <__mikem> chris__ you could try bittorrent
[02:34] <SyL> apokryphos: what was the site that you pasted for getting XGL stuff working?

[02:37] <SyL> wubrgamer: servername is the desktop, client is the laptop

[02:37] <wubrgamer> ?
[02:37] <wubrgamer> i knwo that
[02:37] <chris__> i dont use bittorent!
[02:37] <ardy> help Why other workstation that pointing to ubuntuserver cannot surf internet? but if I point to windows 2000 server it can surf... is there anything to do with DNS-server?
[02:37] <wubrgamer> what do i access it as ?
[02:37] <SAM_theman> I am back
[02:37] <sorush20> does anyone here know what is netbootmond
[02:37] <tonyyarusso> Matthewv: Hehe.  The Gnome shutdown thingy won't work either.  Guess I'm using cli to restart.
[02:37] <SyL> wubrgamer: then what is the problem?
[02:37] <apokryphos> chris__: bittorrent is good, saves the server's bandwidth.
[02:37] <Matthewv> tonyyarusso, that'll work :) 'sudo shutdown -r now'
[02:37] <__mikem> Anyone here know what an "RTFM Ogre" is
[02:38] <docta_v> ardy: you're not making much sense
[02:38] <Matthewv> __mikem, it means read the manual i think
[02:38] <docta_v> what do you mean pointing to?
[02:38] <chris__> i have bittorent but the speeds are like 5kbps
[02:38] <chris__> :|

[02:38] <someothernick> open ports
[02:38] <wubrgamer> i'm confused, what is the server name on the network ?
[02:38] <gavagai> chris__, because you have your router misconfigured probably, or a firewall
[02:38] <__mikem> No, it means read the f@$#ing manuel
[02:38] <chris__> a firewall probably :)
[02:39] <chris__> thanks ubuntu
[02:39] <Matthewv> __mikem, i know :P
[02:39] <symtab> si i have a problem, i need to use copy && paste, the old style like shift + left lick mouse and shift + middle click mouse, doesnt work, any ideas how i can make this work?
[02:39] <wubrgamer> can someone help me decode this guide ? http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/ubuntu-linux-nfs-client-configuration-to-mount-nfs-share.html
[02:39] <ardy> docta_v, actually workstations are depending on ubuntu as server, if I switch off this server then workstations cannot browse internet right?
[02:39] <gavagai> everyone i know who complains about bittorrent has their bittorrent ports closed
[02:39] <gavagai> surprise, rates suck then.
[02:39] <wubrgamer> it'll only take a second, please !

[02:40] <wubrgamer> can someone help me decode this guide ? http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/ubuntu-linux-nfs-client-configuration-to-mount-nfs-share.html
[02:40] <ardy> docta_v, actually I want to make ubuntu system as a network gateway
[02:40] <cherwin> Sayz: here is a doc about the things that you can try out http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/BootPrompt-HOWTO.html
[02:40] <ardy> docta_v, do u know how to do that??
[02:40] <Matthewv> wubrgamer, no problem, just loading it now..
[02:41] <wubrgamer> thank you !
[02:41] <__mikem> docta_v can I have this removed??

[02:41] <__mikem> bye
[02:41] <Matthewv> tonyyarusso, great
[02:41] <Matthewv> wubrgamer, how far have you got?
[02:41] <zanzaban> so how do i make ubuntu a bootable cd when nero will only burn .ima's as bootable?
[02:41] <kameron> Matthewv: it says Frame 25 at the bottom.... i can see one frame.
[02:41] <bimberi> _grout: /etc/network/interfaces
[02:42] <stevekl> zanzaban: Isn't the file an .iso?
[02:42] <zanzaban> yeah
[02:42] <gnomefreak> zanzaban: burn it as a cd image (iso)
[02:42] <Matthewv> hmm.... kameron not sure then
[02:42] <wubrgamer> umm
[02:42] <zanzaban> aww yeah
[02:42] <gavagai> zanzaban, just burn as image, rest doesn't matter
[02:42] <zanzaban> havent burned isos in a long time
[02:42] <stevekl> zanzaban: make sure you actually burn the iso, don't just put the iso on the disk and burn it
[02:42] <zanzaban> :D
[02:42] <wubrgamer> i've installed those packages
[02:42] <cherwin> Sayz: this is a very good one too https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions?highlight=%28boot%29
[02:42] <zanzaban> right right
[02:42] <wubrgamer> and made that specific directory
[02:42] <zanzaban> :D
[02:42] <gnomefreak> !iso
[02:42] <wubrgamer> it's sitting in my home folder
[02:42] <__mikem> I can't wait for my pressed cd to come in the mail
[02:42] <stevekl> zanzaban: You probably know that some peopel don't and it saves headaches
[02:43] <ubotu> rumour has it, iso is download Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ and for help burning the CD, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[02:43] <zanzaban> i use dameon tools for isos as a virtual drive, :D
[02:43] <gnomefreak> zanzaban: ^^^
[02:43] <zanzaban> have only burned files lately
[02:43] <stevekl> Daemon tools is one of the more useful windows applications
[02:43] <gnomefreak> great thing on nero
[02:43] <Matthewv> wubrgamer, so have you run the mount command?
[02:43] <wubrgamer> nope
[02:43] <wubrgamer> cause i don't know how to write it.......
[02:43] <zanzaban> thx for refreshing my brain
[02:43] <docta_v> ardy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=119787
[02:43] <zanzaban> :D
[02:43] <Matthewv> k... btw wubrgamer this will only work if you have the nfs server set up correctly
[02:43] <farshim> is the mplayer for ubuntu?
[02:43] <wubrgamer> my machine is sitting on my local network,
[02:43] <wubrgamer> i think i do
[02:43] <Matthewv> farshim, yes
[02:43] <wubrgamer> perhaps.........
[02:43] <wubrgamer> hehe
[02:43] <_jason2_> ubotu: tell farshim about mplayer
[02:44] <Matthewv> wubrgamer, ok,
[02:44] <wubrgamer> let's just assume i do
[02:44] <wubrgamer> can you re-write that command ?
[02:44] <farshim> Matthewv: its not on the package manager, is it?
[02:44] <Matthewv> farshim, it is
[02:44] <Matthewv> ubotu tell farshim about repositories
[02:44] <gnomefreak> farshim: read what ubotu sent you
[02:44] <chris__> DBO you still here?
[02:44] <wubrgamer> what is server.mydomain.com for me ?
[02:45] <ome_> I just installed wine through the repository... How do i use it now?
[02:45] <Sayz> cherwin: Alright, I'll try 'em out. Thanks for your help!
[02:45] <Matthewv> then run 'sudo mount <serveraddress>:/path/to/shared/files /home/<user>/myfiles'
[02:45] <stevekl> ome_: "wine"?
[02:45] <wubrgamer> what is my server address ?
[02:45] <DBO> chris__, yep
[02:45] <wubrgamer> aack...
[02:45] <Matthewv> wubrgamer, if you have it, just use the ip address of the computer you want to connect to
[02:45] <wubrgamer> what is your server address ?
[02:45] <wubrgamer> on your lan ?
[02:45] <dumbledore> hello, i installed the firegl driver for my ati card and set the dri section in my xorg.conf to 0666 but i'm still getting an indirect render mode
[02:45] <ome_> wine is the windows layer for linux
[02:46] <cherwin> Sayz: no problem, and remember always read the docs that come with your software :^)
[02:46] <Matthewv> wubrgamer, d'you know the ip address of the computer you are trying to connect to?
[02:46] <ardy> docta_v, thanks btw is there any printer-friendly so that i can print it out..
[02:46] <wubrgamer> yes
[02:46] <stevekl> ome_: I mean, run the command "wine" :[
[02:46] <wubrgamer> it's 192.168.1.100
[02:46] <wubrgamer> my laptop is, i don't kow
[02:46] <someothernick> winecfg
[02:47] <stevekl> wubrgamer: nope that's only the IP of your computer on your home network
[02:47] <dumbledore> anyone know how to get rid of "extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"."?
[02:47] <stevekl> wubrgamer: check http://www.whatismyipaddress.com/
[02:47] <wubrgamer> i know that
[02:47] <Matthewv> wubrgamer, are you trying to connect across a lan, or more?
[02:47] <wubrgamer> both of my computers are in my lan
[02:47] <wubrgamer> nonono
[02:47] <wubrgamer> JUST IN LAN
[02:48] <wubrgamer> although, i coudn't care less if it's secure
[02:48] <uXp> anyone here run dual monitor setup with xgl and compiz?
[02:48] <Matthewv> wubrgamer, then run 'sudo mount 192.168.1.100:/path/to/shared/files/ /home/<your_username>/myfiles/'
[02:48] <ome_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d15672
[02:48] <wubrgamer> alrightr
[02:48] <banie> hello
[02:49] <banie> i have prob here
[02:49] <wubrgamer> couldn't find it in fstab or mtab
[02:49] <banie>  The command 'gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c' failed.
[02:49] <banie> *** You must set the environment variable CC to a working compiler.
[02:49] <gnomefreak> uXp: join #ubuntu-xgl for xgl questions
[02:49] <stevekl> banie: Just ask
[02:49] <uXp> its not a xgl question
[02:49] <uXp> twinview
[02:49] <gnomefreak> banie: install build-essential
[02:49] <gnomefreak> uXp: compiz takes over for xorg iirc
[02:50] <uXp> say what
[02:50] <__mikem> I have one question, if I already sent away for 5 pressed ubuntu cds, am I allowed to send away for 5 kubuntu cds and 5 xubuntu cds or am I pushing it.
[02:50] <uXp> some dude earlier told me he has compiz and xgl with twinview
[02:50] <tonyyarusso> gnomefreak: I thought compiz replaced metacity.
[02:50] <frood> Does anyone know if there is a repository for xscreensaver that still has bouncing cow in it?
[02:50] <gnomefreak> tonyyarusso: i thought it was xorg (while your in xgl)
[02:51] <Matthewv> uXp, apparently it works, but the actual separate monitors aren't recognised... meaning that maximising will maximise across both screens etc.
[02:51] <tonyyarusso> __mikem: You certainly can, but for future reference it's better to ask for them all at once to save shipping costs.
[02:51] <snoopy> __mikem it's cheaper for them to do one massive shipment, than lots of little ones.. the cost to ship is more than the cost to press the cds
[02:51] <gnomefreak> uXp: thats not what i said
[02:51] <Sammy> its me guys SAM_the
[02:51] <gnomefreak> uXp: compiz+xgl is normal
[02:51] <Sammy> you know the rest
[02:51] <__mikem> sorry about that. Thanks
[02:52] <tonyyarusso> __mikem: Wait, you can get Xubuntu CDs shipped?
[02:52] <uXp> Matthewv:  i want it to go on both screens
[02:52] <tescoil> I've read some support docs that refer to menu item System > Administration > Printing -- but I don't have such an item.
[02:52] <gnomefreak> tonyyarusso: no
[02:52] <uXp> _mikem: yes you cna get them shipped
[02:52] <tonyyarusso> gnomefreak: Okay, so I'm not nuts then?
[02:52] <uXp> and tonyyarusso you can get them shipped for free
[02:52] <gnomefreak> no
[02:52] <Matthewv> uXp, i believe you just follow the usual xgl guides, and thats all
[02:52] <stevekl> Uh, why not just burn CDs?
[02:52] <uXp> huh
[02:52] <gnomefreak> its kubuntu edubuntu and ubuntu only
[02:52] <uXp> nah
[02:52] <luc1fersflowers> hello all
[02:52] <someothernick> ome_, type winecfg to config. when you install a windows program use wine to install. if you go to home folder click veiw and show hidden files you will see your .wine folder
[02:53] <uXp> i got mine on the way
[02:53] <luc1fersflowers> is there a audio support channel?
[02:53] <uXp> Matthewv:  what do you mena
[02:53] <uXp> mean*
[02:53] <vinboy> hi
[02:53] <vinboy> i have a package that I can't find on the repo
[02:53] <vinboy> how do I compile it?
[02:53] <gnomefreak> tonyyarusso: i would expect it in oct-dec they might be senbding xubuntu (atleast im gonna be on that train when i get around to it
[02:53] <ome_> thanks
[02:53] <farshim> ubotu: I compiled mplaye from source, it didn't quite work. can I remove it?
[02:53] <ubotu> farshim: I'm sorry, i don't know what you're talking about
[02:53] <gnomefreak> vinboy: what package?
[02:54] <vinboy> kopete 0.12
[02:54] <gnomefreak> !mplayer
[02:54] <ubotu> hmm... mplayer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[02:54] <stevekl> vinboy: You can probably find a precompiled binary version
[02:54] <gnomefreak> farshim: ^^^ read that
[02:54] <sorush20> guys what are MD devices? are they doctors and physicians in a device?
[02:54] <vinboy> i cant find it anywhere
[02:54] <vinboy> :(
[02:54] <stevekl> sorush20: haha, I hope so
[02:54] <__mikem> does xubuntu have a shipit yet
[02:54] <tonyyarusso> gnomefreak: That would be pretty sweet.  *crosses fingers*
[02:54] <stevekl> "It's mah bowels, doc!"
[02:54] <luc1fersflowers> does anyone know why while playing songs through amarok alsa would swtich between my laptop sound card and my usb sound card/
[02:54] <farshim> I compiled mplayer from source, it didn't quite work. Is it possible to remove it as I am planning to instal lit from package manager?
[02:54] <ome_> Any idea why the configure crash's when i click audio tab?
[02:54] <stevekl> farshim: go into the source directory and do "make uninstall" I think
[02:55] <apokryphos> that's right, but with sudo
[02:55] <gnomefreak> i have kopete 3.5.2 :(
[02:55] <sorush20> my alsa playback is very slow .. stevekel types my name and about 5 sec later I hear the gaim sound to tell me that stevekl has said something to me..
[02:55] <apokryphos> gnomefreak: what's wrong with that?
[02:55] <farshim> stevekl: thanks
[02:55] <stevekl> sorush20: I've always had that problem. I just don't bother with event-sounds in linux, and just turn them off.
[02:55] <AngryElf> how do i create ogg/mp3s from CD using amarok in ubuntu?
[02:55] <gnomefreak> apokryphos: hes looking for kopete .12
[02:55] <stevekl> I always assume the person i'm talking to knows what to do with sudo  :)
[02:56] <AngryElf> if i drag and drop them it says the files are invalid
[02:56] <ome_> my wine folder is in usr/lib
[02:56] <apokryphos> gnomefreak: hm, yeah, that's a good point. kdenetwork package should be 3.5.* but kopete pack shouldn't be.
[02:56] <banie> i have already install thunderbird
[02:56] <banie> but when double click it, it not run
[02:57] <banie> why?
[02:57] <ape_> hello
[02:57] <stevekl> banie: You're gonna have to give us more details
[02:57] <gnomefreak> apokryphos: kopete should have its own version unless im reading it wrong and its .02 would be its version
[02:57] <stevekl> banie: try running it in a console, it should give you some error messages
[02:58] <stevekl> "Kick me in the face"
[02:58] <MrBallZ> Question:  how do I elminate a network interface, when i was trying to get madwifi working I created a wifi0 wich doesn't exist, how do i elimiate it ...
[02:58] <apokryphos> gnomefreak: it was probably a conscious decision, but I wouldn't really agree with it.
[02:58] <Tedd_> __mikem, that kind of thinking is dangerous
[02:58] <MarcN> __mikem: stands for KDE ;-)
[02:58] <mjr> __mikem, "kool". Originally. Nowadays the official line is that it doesn't stand for anything.
[02:58] <banie> error: bash: thunderbird: command not found
[02:58] <MarcN> __mikem: just like GNU
[02:58] <krazykit> banie: mozilla-thunderbird
[02:58] <apokryphos> stands for plain K now, yeah.
[02:58] <__mikem> I am getting conflicting reports
[02:58] <__mikem> lol
[02:58] <MrBallZ> anyone
[02:58] <farshim> what's a mplayer dummy package?
[02:59] <SiriusIntent> can i get help installing Grub, im trying to do a multiboot with WinXP and Dapper (both which are installed on seperate hard disks) but after using the live cd to do an install, i restart the system and it boots automatically into WinXP (WinXP was installed first then Ubuntu next)
[02:59] <banie> error: bash: mozilla-thunderbird: command not found
[02:59] <stevekl> MrBallZ: Well go to /etc/network/interfaces and remove all mention of it
[02:59] <__mikem> its funny how Tedd_ tells me that kind of thinking is dangerous, why is that
[02:59] <gnomefreak> apokryphos: so he would have to compile 0.12 im thinking unless it gets added to edgy  (i dont have kopete so i cant look in help to tell him what version)
[02:59] <riddlebox> can I downgrade a package if I cannot use that specific version?
[02:59] <jason> ubotu: tell SiriusIntent about grub
[02:59] <Tedd_> __mikem, it is the biggest cover-up in human history.
[02:59] <gnomefreak> banie: doesnt seem installed
[02:59] <krazykit> banie: then it's either not installed or not in your path
[02:59] <snoopy> SiriusIntent I guess you've got a sata and IDE drive?
[02:59] <BioVorE> farshim: a dummy packages just filles a dep for apt.. it dosn't acutual install anything
[02:59] <SiriusIntent> yeah
[02:59] <snoopy> yeah had that problem.. want me to run through how to fix that up?
[03:00] <troytroy> hi how do i get kernel source for compilation
[03:00] <AngryElf> how do i create ogg/mp3s from CD using amarok in ubuntu? -- if i drag and drop em it says the files are invalid
[03:00] <SiriusIntent> XP runs of the sata and linux of ide
[03:00] <stevekl> banie: It's not installed then
[03:00] <apokryphos> gnomefreak: could just remove current kopete, then sudo apt-get build-dep kopete, then build 0.12 -- should be fine.
[03:00] <stevekl> banie: apt-cache search mozilla thunderbird
[03:00] <gnomefreak> apokryphos: i wouldnt have an issue with that but he might
[03:00] <apokryphos> gnomefreak: why?
[03:01] <gnomefreak> banie: apt-cache policy mozilla-thunderbird will tell you if its installed
[03:01] <ome_> how do i open an exe on my desktop with wine?
[03:01] <gnomefreak> apokryphos: i dont know how good he is at building
[03:01] <gnomefreak> if i ever get caught up tonight ill help him
[03:01] <Matthewv> ome_, 'wine /home/<user>/Desktop/<file.exe>
[03:01] <krazykit> ome_: wine ~/Desktop/file
[03:01] <rayston> heya all
[03:01] <ome_> awesome thanks
[03:02] <apokryphos> gnomefreak: is there a 0.12 pack available somewhere?
[03:02] <rayston> how goes it?
[03:02] <bunter> ubuntu irc, great idea ... never knew this existed
[03:02] <banie> mozilla-thunderbird-locale-tr
[03:02] <__mikem> There was a whole bunch of distros released just resently acording to distro watch
[03:02] <gnomefreak> not sure
[03:02] <dumbledore> aaaaaaah
[03:02] <dumbledore> this dri failure is driving me crazy :(
[03:02] <krazykit> gnomefreak: compiling or writing a dsc?
[03:02] <farshim> I have another (old) question: unicode doesn't quite seem ok in firfox (Persian). It works much better on university machines (which are red hat) am I missing something?
[03:02] <bunter> is there any benefit to formatting and installing dapper manually, compared to updating badger to dapper with the update manager?
[03:03] <ome_> windows mediaplayer currently unsupported by wine?
[03:03] <gnomefreak> krazykit: compiling/building kopete    someone is looking to do that
[03:03] <krazykit> ome_: of course.  it uses some pretty deep hooks that wine doesn't support.  use a good media player.
[03:03] <rayston> anyone know how to get half-life working on Ubuntu?via wine? do Ineed to install DirectX?
[03:03] <krazykit> rayston: just half-life?  wine should be fine
[03:03] <ome_> was looking for a way to view windows media player streams in firefox
[03:03] <dumbledore> omfd, it even says the ati drivers are installed and loaded but dri's still not turned on.... (?)
[03:04] <ome_> otherwise i use vlc
[03:04] <krazykit> ome_: um, totem-xine plugin and mplayerplug-in should do it
[03:04] <dumbledore> >:-/
[03:04] <ome_> ok awesome
[03:04] <ome_> wich is better?
[03:04] <amgad> guys, how can one resets or retrives nick password on freenode???
[03:04] <Dreamglider> DVD playback is so laggy/jerky
[03:04] <ape_> where do xchat scripts go in Ubunut? The Xchat site says there should be a .xchat directory in the home folder
[03:05] <krazykit> ome_: i personally use mplayerplug-in, but it's known to be buggy.  if you have totem, you can install that plugin.
[03:05] <seres> can anyone help me i started ubuntu and my desktop is way out of place and my monitor only shows some of the desktop while the rest is out of the screen.....i tryied adjusting the controls on the monitor but the could only move it so much.......is there any way to move around the desktop?
[03:05] <farshim> Dreamglider: what player are you using?
[03:05] <ape_> seres, mine has an autoadjust, does your's?
[03:05] <Dreamglider> not only playback but it affects the whole system
[03:05] <Dreamglider> xine
[03:05] <laozi> I'm trying upgrade from Breezy to Dapper.  Running update-manager doesn't work because apparently its not the current version so when I use the Synaptic Package Manager to try to upgrade to the latest version it says the latest is my current (0.37) which I know to be a fallacy.  What's going on?  New to linux, and.. hi.
[03:06] <Dreamglider> and dropped frames
[03:06] <seres> ape: were is this auto adjust
[03:06] <rayston> yah, just half-life, it let me install it fine, but it doesnt start
[03:06] <ape_> It's on my monitor
[03:06] <farshim> Dreamglider: I had a similar problem, just installed mplayer, much better
[03:06] <someothernick> seres, wrong vid card driver?
[03:06] <farshim> Dreamglider: It didn;t affect the whole system though
[03:06] <banie> man..
[03:06] <rayston> krazykit :yah, just half-life, it let me install it fine, but it doesnt start
[03:07] <seres> well i do have an ati video card and that has already been casueing me probleems
[03:07] <Dreamglider> even the mouse is jerking in sync with the video
[03:07] <someothernick> seres, mine did the same till i switched to flgrx
[03:07] <__mikem> Acording to distrowatch ubuntu is still #1
[03:07] <lurker99> bunter:  a fresh install is a clean install.  :-)  an update-manager install leaves you with all your old user-data, but also trashes any package changes you might have made as it applies a fresh ubuntu-desktop' install.  goodby mozilla.  hello firefox and evolution.  which i then had to manually reverse.   and my sound still isn't working. :-(
[03:07] <apokryphos> gnomefreak: Riddell is building some upgraded Kopete packs, I'll keep you posted.
[03:07] <ape_> does anyone know where xchat scripts go
[03:07] <banie> mozilla-xremote-client
[03:07] <gnomefreak> apokryphos: ok ty
[03:08] <seres> is flgrx a different video card?
[03:08] <someothernick> no driver
[03:08] <someothernick> which card do you have?
[03:08] <Dreamglider> farshim, mplayser does better indeed but it's still a bit jerky

[03:10] <laozi> How do I update update-manager when Synaptic Package Manager says I have the current version when I do not?  Why won't SPM reload with current versions even when I've manually refreshed?

[03:14] <banie> but error
[03:14] <tonyyarusso> bohdan: torsmo.sourceforge.net
[03:14] <banie> can i paste the error
[03:14] <banie> here
[03:14] <banie> make[1] : *** No rule to make target `Downloads/MPlayer-1.0pre8/common.mak'.  Stop.
[03:14] <laozi> I'm trying upgrade from Breezy to Dapper.  Running update-manager doesn't work because apparently its not the current version so when I use the Synaptic Package Manager to try to upgrade to the latest version it says the latest is my current (0.37) which I know to be a fallacy.  What's going on?
[03:14] <banie> make[1] : Leaving directory `/home/banie/My Downloads/MPlayer-1.0pre8/libavcodec'
[03:15] <chongbook> laozi, gksudo "update-manager -d"
[03:15] <chongbook> install updates that it wants
[03:15] <chongbook> then run it again
[03:15] <Dreamglider> why cant i set DMA to 1 for the cdrom ?
[03:15] <chongbook> and it should have a button you can click to upgrade to dapper
[03:16] <laozi> chongbook, that's my problem, update-manager isn't updated enough to update me.  It needs to be a higher version to do the Drake upgrade.  So I need to update update-manager.
[03:16] <bohdan> tonyyarusso: thank you that looks like it
[03:16] <Dreamglider> help http://pastebin.com/707747
[03:16] <chongbook> laozi, which is why you let it install the updates first and then run it again...
[03:16] <laozi> So I need to you SPM to update update-manager but its not fetching the lastest version for an as of yet unknown reason.
[03:16] <bohdan> tonyyarusso: mmm isnt in DSL packages list though thats y i couldnt find it
[03:17] <Cruel_dog> How to change the resolutions of xserver?
[03:17] <chongbook> i did it from a breezy install that i installed yesterday and never updated
[03:17] <laozi> there's no updates to install...
[03:17] <chongbook> oh
[03:17] <tonyyarusso> AngryElf: Ya got kdm but Gnome selected for the session, I'd guess.  Ever have KDE installed?
[03:17] <tonyyarusso> bohdan: Googled "damn small linux system monitor"  ;)
[03:17] <mcpowley> oh my god, is there any way to disable the shift backspace restarting gnome?
[03:17] <bitlooter> does anyone know if dapper has drivers for 3com wireless cards?
[03:17] <mcpowley> it's driving me crazy
[03:17] <chongbook> in SPM you could try doing a refresh and then 'mark all updates'
[03:17] <bitlooter> i thought it will finally be included
[03:18] <zitch> Does anybody know how to unmap the switch console keys (Ctrl-Alt-F#)?
[03:18] <laozi> I have yet to see any evidence of this easy ubuntu upgrade everyone talks about.
[03:18] <bohdan> tonyyarusso: lol i tried that i kept gettin asmon and asmem
[03:18] <chongbook> laozi, worked great for me today
[03:18] <laozi> chongbook, yeah, tried that and tried singling out just the update-manager.
[03:18] <Cruel_dog> How to change the resolutions of xserver?
[03:18] <bohdan> mcpowley: are u using xgl?
[03:18] <Cruel_dog> the screen resolutions in xserver thing
[03:18] <Cruel_dog> whats the command for that?
[03:18] <Cruel_dog> the screen resolutions in xserver thing
[03:18] <laozi> chongbook, you're lucky!
[03:18] <Cruel_dog> to change
[03:18] <bitlooter> laozi you can also do upgrade from commandline if synaptic doesn't work
[03:19] <malegria> hi, i don't quite get it: i'm coming from windows and had set up a local server there to test my websites (with xampp). now i wanna do this with my shiny dapper drake, but i don't understand it. what i found on the web seems to be a setup for a "real" server. is it posible to get something like xampp? i suppose lamp..
[03:19] <chongbook> laozi, not so much
[03:19] <mcpowley> bohdan: Thats the thing, I have xgl set to run when I type in thefuture, but I never type it in...so why does shift backspace mess me up?
[03:19] <chongbook> somehow i have varying versions of nvidia-glx and the nvidia kernel module
[03:19] <Cruel_dog> How to change the screen resolutions in xserver?
[03:19] <bohdan> mcpowley: mm i had to add a line in sumthin or another lol
[03:20] <bohdan> mcpowley: 2 secs and i'll find it lol
[03:20] <Cruel_dog> How to change the screen resolutions in xserver?
[03:20] <mcpowley> bohdan: Thanks much, this is bothering me to no end.
[03:20] <Cruel_dog> How to change the screen resolutions in xserver?
[03:20] <wubrgamer> hey guys , is reiserFS compatible with grub ?
[03:20] <Cruel_dog> whats the command to enter in the xserver configuration mode?
[03:20] <snoopy> yes wubrgamer
[03:21] <wubrgamer> it'll "just work"
[03:21] <wubrgamer> cause i know jfs or xfs doesn't
[03:21] <chongbook> xfs doesnt
[03:21] <Cruel_dog> whats the command to enter in the xserver configuration mode?
[03:21] <Dreamglider> help me set DMA on cdrom to on
[03:21] <wubrgamer> alright
[03:21] <wubrgamer> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:21] <Cruel_dog> thx
[03:22] <laozi> Would there by any difference between downloading the whole DAPPER CD versus doing the automatic upgrade?  Because at this point the automatic thing is crap.
[03:22] <bohdan> mcpowley: xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.us
[03:23] <malegria> nobody for the server question?
[03:23] <bitlooter> laozi go here:https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades
[03:23] <kbrooks> laozi: How the f is it f'ing crap
[03:23] <bohdan> mcpowley: running "xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.us" should fix it according to the forum lol
[03:23] <laozi> bitlooter, Yeah, that's the directions I've been following, which has given my my problems.
[03:23] <kazuki> Is there a way to figure out what partion / is on from inside linux ?
[03:23] <laozi> kbrooks, Because it doesn't f'ing work.
[03:24] <bitlooter> i know the auto-upgrade may not work, it didn't work on a laptop but it work on my destop..the commnd line worked either way
[03:24] <kbrooks> laozi: how the f doesn't it f'ing work???
[03:24] <laozi> Maybe I have to do the command line deal.
[03:24] <brett_> What software will create an ISO image from a CD so I can burn copies with gnomebaker?
[03:24] <lightstar> malegria, a test web server setup is similar to the real one? what exactly are you looking 4?
[03:25] <uXp> yes!!!!!
[03:25] <laozi> kbrooks, I need to have the upgraded version of update-manager  but it it the package manager it says my update-manager is up to date (it isn't really).
[03:25] <uXp> i got my dual screen to work! =] 
[03:25] <cherwin> brett_: gnomebaker can already create images
[03:25] <brett_> huh... wasn't obvious...
[03:25] <brett_> must have missed it...
[03:25] <cherwin> brett_: you can also do a cat /dev/cdrom > cd.img
[03:25] <chongbook> laozi, have you tried sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade ???
[03:26] <cherwin> brett_: or dd if=/dev/cdrom of=~/image.img
[03:26] <chongbook> ugg enough ubuntu nvidia bollocks
[03:26] <brett_> Huh... didn't think it was that easy.. the cat command is surprising...
[03:27] <brett_> I found the option in gnomebaker just now... thanks!!
[03:27] <malegria> lightstar: i just want to be able to preview my php-mysql-websites on my local machine. to do that i used xampp (www.apachefriends.org) under win.
[03:27] <cherwin> brett_: you're welcome :^)
[03:27] <brett_> so you could do  cat /dev/cdrom > myfile.iso
[03:27] <rug> Howdy all
[03:27] <someothernick> hi
[03:27] <cherwin> brett_: if /dev/cdrom is linked to your cdrom drive
[03:28] <brett_> nick Brett_
[03:29] <Maerksi> hello. :) i want to setup ubuntu. is there any review from the graphical instalation? I have 3 partitions but i just want to install ubuntu on the first one. i don't want it to mess with my other two. second question, my pc has 40 gb and i want to create /, /home and /swap. how much shoud I give to each (768 megs of ram)? third question, my d: and e: partitions are ntsc. to be able to work on them with ubuntu, to i need to change to fat32 ? thank you. sorr
[03:29] <bernier> i, i know i have a p3 700 but how can i know if it's a pentium pro, a pentium-mmx , a pentium III/celeron/pentium-III xeon, or pentium M?
[03:30] <malegria> lightstar: i think i have to be registered for private chat, right? i'm not
[03:30] <malegria> lightstar: no i dont have php etc installed
[03:30] <Dreamglider> Maerksi, http://www.mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu/install/
[03:30] <malegria> lightstar: can i do that right away?
[03:31] <Rainier> greetings
[03:31] <lightstar> malegria, yes you can
[03:31] <Rainier> my grub-reboot doesn't work! any idea why?
[03:31] <Maerksi> Dreamglider thank you. can i ignore the fact that it is for ubuntu 5 ? is it all the same? :)
[03:31] <Dreamglider> Maerksi, sorry sorry
[03:32] <[Amigo] > Does the latest version of ubuntu install to a usb drive?
[03:32] <__mikem> o well, Im out, bye
[03:32] <malegria> lightstar: so i just install the stuff i need and off it goes?
[03:32] <theine> Rainier: what actually is grub-reboot?
[03:32] <Dreamglider> i know there is screenshots for 6.06 and when installing 6.06  one uses gnome
[03:32] <Rainier> theine: hello, grub-reboot is a program to temporarily change your default startup OS
[03:33] <Sayz> Hey, I know this is gonna sound stupid, but bear with me
[03:33] <Rainier> theine: you use it with the entry number of the OS example "sudo grub-reboot 3" for memtest in my case
[03:33] <Sayz> Does 6.06 have drivers for a Microsoft USB optical mouse?
[03:33] <malegria> lightstar: should i install apache2? i guess...
[03:33] <Maerksi> if you cant help me on the 1st one, dont worry. how about the 2nd and 3rd questions? :)
[03:33] <loxety> what does ubuntu have to connect to netmeeting?
[03:33] <lightstar> malegria, yeap that would be the 1st choice:)
[03:34] <chongbook> loxety, gnomemeeting?
[03:34] <cherwin> Sayz: mice use basic interfaces so i would say yes
[03:34] <jpatota> i just installed postfix but for some reason mailboxes for my user accounts were never generated...how do i create them manually?
[03:34] <cherwin> Sayz: but just try it out dude and see what happens
[03:34] <malegria> lightstar: thanks. seems like it was too easy to think about it...
[03:34] <theine> Rainier: so you could also reboot normally and just select entry 3 in the grub menu?
[03:34] <loxety> chongbook, cool!!
[03:34] <zitch> Sayz: Since I'm using one with 6.06, I'd say yes... :)
[03:34] <winbond> anyone know what repo the quin's packages are in ??
[03:34] <bimberi> Sayz: my usb optical mouse works fine, it's Dell branded though
[03:35] <Maerksi> i'll repeat :) . on a 40 gb hd and 768 mb of ram, how much should i reserve for / , /home and /swap ?
[03:35] <Sayz> cherwin: Hey man, tried the options. They worked great! I used live acpi=off. Unfortunately, they broke my mouse...
[03:35] <chongbook> Maerksi, the installer will partition for you
[03:35] <loxety> chongbook, any ideas to the apt package name?
[03:35] <chongbook> for a desktop machine you dont really need to split off stuff
[03:35] <Rainier> theine: yeah of course but it's comfortable to just say, "reboot with windows" and then to not have to worry about selecting windows :-)
[03:35] <chongbook> loxety, umm dpkg is locked right now so i cant search
[03:35] <theine> Rainier: True
[03:35] <chongbook> heh
[03:35] <cherwin> Sayz: you serious? acpi has broke your mouse? that's odd
[03:36] <lightstar> malegria, :)
[03:36] <Maerksi> chongbook i don't think it will choose the proper amount for /, /home and /swap... will it? :\
[03:36] <theine> Rainier: The best solution is of course to not boot into Windows at all ;)
[03:36] <Sayz> cherwin: Yeah. I mean, acpi was what kept freezing the boot, so turning it off finally got me to the desktop, but by doing so, I couldn't use my mouse
[03:36] <someothernick> Rainier, sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst find Default should have a 0 next to it change number to correspond to the os you want to boot from
[03:36] <chongbook> Maerksi, it'll choose swap and / usually
[03:36] <cherwin> Sayz: acpi stands for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface so i do not think it'll break your mouse
[03:36] <chongbook> and maybe /boot
[03:36] <jmg> hmm
[03:36] <Sayz> cherwin: Yeah, that's what I thought.
[03:37] <Sivik> does anyone here use enlightenment?
[03:37] <jmg> ubotu, tell me about mp3
[03:37] <Sivik> !tell jmb about mp3
[03:37] <Sayz> cherwin: But when ACPI was on, the mouse worked while everything else just stopped loading
[03:37] <Maerksi> chongbook what would you choose for /, /home and /swap on 40 gb ? i'm clueless
[03:37] <cherwin> Sayz: configure your xorg.conf to utilize your mouse and then restart X
[03:37] <Rainier> theine: haha yeah that would be great. unfortunately there are some things i still cant do in linux :'-(
[03:37] <Sayz> cherwin: Can't
[03:37] <chongbook> Maerksi, well my laptop has a 40G drive and i just let it set things up automatically
[03:37] <ablyss> how to i edit the bootloader / mbr
[03:37] <cherwin> Sayz: why not?
[03:38] <chongbook> but i'd go 5G for / 1.5G for swap and the rest for /home
[03:38] <Sayz> cherwin: I still haven't been able to install anything. I'm having issues booting at all
[03:38] <chongbook> if i had to make the choice
[03:38] <Rainier> someothernick: ok thanx
[03:38] <Maerksi> can I get another members opinion please?
[03:38] <Maerksi> :)
[03:38] <Sayz> cherwin: The live cd itself won't work right yet
[03:38] <malegria> lightstar: you know if php5 includes 4? or do i have to install both?
[03:38] <theine> Rainier: Such as?
[03:38] <loxety> any alternatives to gnomemeeting?
[03:38] <someothernick> ablyss, grub? sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:39] <AngryElf> the folks over in #kubuntu aren't helping -- what's the equivolent of ~/.gnomerc for KDE?
[03:39] <Neoph34r> I'm trying to set up XGL and Compiz on my Dell Inspiron 9300 with a Nvidia 6800 Go, and i'm getting massive graphical artifacts when I log into gnome. Any one who thinks they can help me with my problem?
[03:39] <lightstar> malegria, php5 and php4 are diff versions..you just have to install one..php5 would do nicely
[03:39] <Dreamglider> can anyone help me to set DMA on cdrom to ON ?
[03:39] <Rainier> theine: i enjoy playing counter-strike every now and then
[03:39] <malegria> loxety: ekiga (?)
[03:39] <Sayz> cherwin: What really sucks is that all the versions of Ubuntu I've tried so far worked perfectly
[03:39] <ablyss> someothernick: i have another grub using my mbr.. this partition isn't listed// cant add to the other grub either
[03:39] <malegria> lightstar: and 5 "knows" 4?
[03:39] <theine> Rainier: Sure, I can see that
[03:39] <lightstar> malegria, though some scripts might complain about certain features
[03:39] <Sayz> cherwin: Then I found out that 6.06 came out and sure enough, it didn't work
[03:40] <malegria> lightstar: ok
[03:40] <lightstar> malegria, knows 4? as in can 5 run scripts written for 4? pretty much:)
[03:40] <cherwin> Sayz: bummer, i guess you have to just live with it if you are going to use the live cd, but if you just install ubuntu on you hard drive then you'll be able to fix that
[03:40] <malegria> lightstar: yeah, thats waht i mean
[03:40] <Maerksi> may i repeat my question? i would like to get another opinion please. how much would you reserve for /, /home and /swap on 40 gb ? i'm clueless
[03:40] <ablyss> someothernick: another question.. how can i change my bootdisk?  right now it doesn't if have dapper as default but xubuntu
[03:40] <Maerksi> i have 768 mb of ram
[03:41] <stuNNed> hi guys, anyone get the latest gnomad2 working on dapper?
[03:41] <someothernick> ablyss, maybe you could reinstall grub to mbr from install disk
[03:41] <Sayz> cherwin: Yeah, and plus, I would dool-boot with Ubuntu if I could really, but I can't leave Windows and my hard drive is WAY TOO SMALL
[03:41] <ablyss> someothernick: i'd rather have my bootdisk fixed firest
[03:41] <someothernick> ablyss, you want it to boot to another os?
[03:41] <cherwin> Sayz: what's holding you back to completely switch over to ubuntu?
[03:42] <ablyss> someothernick: no i want it to be corrected.. it defaults to the wrong OS
[03:42] <Sayz> cherwin: Office and people in my house that can only use Windows:D
[03:42] <Sivik> Sayz, you can still use windows, just do it inside ubuntu
[03:42] <LiteHedded> !sudo
[03:42] <ubotu> methinks sudo is a command that will let users run commands as root. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[03:42] <Maerksi> !gedit
[03:42] <ubotu> methinks gedit is a text editor for GNOME.
[03:42] <harry> how can i see my offline buddies on gaim yahoo messenger???
[03:42] <Sivik> Sayz, its it a laptop?
[03:42] <someothernick> ablyss, oh
[03:42] <harry> i only see online people
[03:42] <Sayz> cherwin: What, through WINE? My hard drive is 10 gigs, I can barely fit on it
[03:43] <ablyss> someothernick: thanks for tips.. i will do more research on it later
[03:43] <slavik> Sayz: tell your people that microsoft is not god
[03:43] <lightstar> harisund, select show offline buddies
[03:43] <someothernick> ablyss, sorry i couldn't be more help
[03:43] <Maerksi> no answers? :(
[03:43] <cherwin> Sayz: yeah too bad, i've a single user laptop with an 80 gig hard drive...
[03:43] <intelikey> ablyss grub ?
[03:43] <slavik> Sayz: one thing that most people resist is learning
[03:43] <lightstar> harry, select show offline buddies
[03:43] <slavik> force them to learn
[03:43] <shadeofgrey> yo everybody
[03:44] <Neoph34r> I'm trying to set up XGL and Compiz on my Dell Inspiron 9300 with a Nvidia 6800 Go, and i'm getting massive graphical artifacts when I log into gnome. I followed this guide http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?id=916 but it doesn't seem to work. Any help would be appreciated.
[03:44] <harry> lightstar: on the preferences???
[03:44] <shadeofgrey> has anybody in the house attempted or successfully managed to install windows vista beta two on a machine that has ubuntu as the primary os?
[03:44] <Sayz> cherwin: I know, it's just they're not attached to Microsoft, just Windows is the only OS they know, and if I try to teach them anything else, they could expload from confusion:D
[03:44] <lightstar> harisund, nope..in buddies
[03:44] <Sayz> cherwin: I still hate Microsoft for making IE
[03:44] <lightstar> harry, nope in buddies
[03:45] <Sivik> Says: get in the new world, buy a bigger hd
[03:45] <cherwin> Sayz: slavik: I would just leave everything as it is, because forcing people to learn stuff never is good. And they'll only get annoyed if they encouter an iexplorer page only etc.
[03:45] <Sivik> 10 gb is old
[03:45] <lightstar> harry, its the main option, right next to tools
[03:45] <slavik> Sayz: they don't need to learn anything ... besides "here is to write stuff, here is e-mail, here is the intraweb"
[03:45] <Sivik> slavik, thats so true
[03:45] <loxety> Microsoft Vista looks like Mac OS 10
[03:45] <slavik> cherwin: I migrated my friend to ubuntu, his wifi (just as mine) doesn't work as well
[03:45] <slavik> windows worked better in our instanse
[03:45] <Sayz> I wish it was that simple...
[03:45] <Sivik> how ugly is Vista
[03:45] <slavik> he does NOT want to go back
[03:46] <Sayz> Oh, by the way
[03:46] <slavik> now, we have to mod our BIOS to accept ralink based cards
[03:46] <harry> lightstar: ok thanx
[03:46] <cherwin> slavik: what kind of nic do you guys have?
[03:46] <HellDragon> i believe i can fly...i believe i can touch this guy
[03:46] <slavik> his reaction "we have to do it" not "let's install windows again"
[03:46] <slavik> broadcom
[03:46] <lightstar> harry, no prob:)
[03:46] <chongbook> slavik, ouch
[03:46] <Sayz> I dunno if you guys have ever heard of this before, but there's this nice Firefox extension that forces websites to think you're using IE
[03:46] <Sivik> slavik, yucky
[03:46] <Sayz> Anyone want a link?
[03:46] <Sivik> Sayz, oh really?
[03:46] <slavik> and the fucking bastards at hp/compaq lied to me and said that I can install other cards
[03:46] <intelikey> ablyss if grub,  open a terminal and type  sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst      change the "default" line to read the name of the prefered os.    if lilo do  sudo nano /etc/lilo.conf && sudo lilo       change the default line to the desired os save and exit.
[03:46] <cafuego> slavik: Well, broadcom support isn't 100% yet (blame broadcom)
[03:47] <slavik> but the BIOS is really locked
[03:47] <Sayz> Oh yeah
[03:47] <slavik> cafuego: yes
[03:47] <cherwin> slavik: thats a wonderfull motivation! just search and learn until you can do it :D
[03:47] <loxety> Vista looks ok but doesnt work that well
[03:47] <Sayz> It's called User Agent Switcher
[03:47] <slavik> cafuego, the point is that we refuse to give up
[03:47] <Sivik> loxety, who is suprised
[03:47] <Sayz> Search for it on the extension site, works like a charm
[03:47] <slavik> cherwin: but we both are comp sci majors ... so yea
[03:47] <cherwin> slavik: anyway broadcom isn't really good with linux drivers
[03:47] <shadeofgrey> thats why you never ever buy hp/compaq stuff EVER
[03:47] <loxety> takes to many steps to configure things
[03:47] <slavik> he has fooled around with linux a lot less than me, but he is learning
[03:47] <Sivik> cherwin: the 4318 isn't bad
[03:47] <Neoph34r> I'm trying to set up XGL and Compiz on my Dell Inspiron 9300 with a Nvidia 6800 Go, and i'm getting massive graphical artifacts when I log into gnome. I followed this guide http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?id=916 but it doesn't seem to work. Any help would be appreciated.
[03:47] <shadeofgrey> or gateway shit for that matter
[03:47] <joao> how can I update firefox, can I overwrite the oder one inswtallin' 1.5 version?
[03:47] <Krhis> Why is Microsoft STILL using a FS that needs to fragmented....
[03:47] <slavik> shadeofgrey: I never will
[03:48] <malegria> lightstar: ...and where do i find the html-folder? (the folder where i have to put my files)
[03:48] <Sivik> Neoph34r, why aren't you just using the nvidia stuff that ubuntu supplies rather than XGL or Compiz?
[03:48] <slavik> Krhis: because windows xp is the techlonogy of 2002 ...
[03:48] <Sivik> !nvidia
[03:48] <ubotu> well, nvidia is Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:48] <Sayz> Hey, can WINE work without a Windows install?
[03:48] <Sivik> !tell Neoph34r about nvidia
[03:48] <shadeofgrey> sla:  ifd  i were you id threaten litigation to get themn to take the unit you got back
[03:48] <slavik> linux is the technology of last night ;)
[03:48] <Krhis> slavik,  Vista.
[03:48] <lightstar> malegria, it should be in /var/www
[03:48] <cherwin> slavik: anyway what doesn't work, does the module load? can you see the networks, please provide more info
[03:48] <Krhis> ^^
[03:48] <slavik> shadeofgrey: I thought of that
[03:48] <Krhis> Vista is using DRM as a selling point too.... I find this ironic.
[03:48] <shadeofgrey> slavik, unless of course its been more than 30 days.  then your certifiably butt fucked
[03:48] <slavik> Krhis: read what I said :P, it applies to vista, too
[03:48] <Sivik> slavik: are you using ndiswrapper for the broadcom stuff
[03:48] <lightstar> malegria, to find out exactly, edit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and look for the DocumentRoot directory
[03:49] <slavik> Sivik: no
[03:49] <someothernick> says, yes
[03:49] <slavik> ndiswrapper doesn't have monitor mode
[03:49] <lightstar> malegria, /var/www/htm..if i recall exactly
[03:49] <stuNNed> how can i get glibc2.4 installed in dapper is it possible to exist alongside 2.3?
[03:49] <someothernick> sayz, yes
[03:49] <malegria> lightstar: ok, found it. thanks
[03:49] <slavik> even the open drivers don't have packet injection
[03:49] <jmg> how can i make rhythmbox rescan my library now i have installed mp3 support?
[03:49] <Sayz> Excellent
[03:49] <Sivik> restart the app maybe?
[03:49] <slavik> rich bastards in my pool don't leave me an open network to use when I am bored ...
[03:49] <shadeofgrey> slavik, lemme guess -- a problem with the integrated wifi and you found out the hard way that they qont allow dfor installation of other networking hardware??
[03:50] <jmg> also, should i be using gnomevfs or mounting my samba share?
[03:50] <winbond> can somone tell me how to link a file to a directory in the command prompt?
[03:50] <slavik> shadeofgrey: because they lied to me
[03:50] <shadeofgrey> sladen, because they put cheap ass bios into the mobile computer your using?
[03:50] <slavik> shadeofgrey: no
[03:50] <shadeofgrey> 'what did they say
[03:50] <wildman> winbond: ln -s file dir/ IIRC
[03:50] <slavik> the BIOS has a whitelist of vendor IDs ...
[03:50] <theine> winbond: ln -s <directory> <file>
[03:50] <wildman> see? I don't remember correctly :)
[03:50] <slavik> since every pci/agp/pcie card/chip has a vendor and subsystem ID
[03:51] <slavik> and they whitelisted only things they sell
[03:51] <lightstar> malegria, try typing your server ip in your browser and see if anything pops up..
[03:51] <winbond> theine: ty
[03:51] <wildman> bye *
[03:51] <theine> winbond: yw
[03:51] <wildman> have a nice... rest of the day/whatever
[03:51] <shadeofgrey> slavik, theres a way to get around that but its riskjy and using it voids the warranty on the machine
[03:51] <malegria> lightstar: i think its working
[03:51] <winbond> wildman: ty
[03:51] <mortal5> hey guys, what's the dif btw the ubuntu dvd and the ubuntu iso?
[03:51] <shadeofgrey> slavik, are you mad eniough that your willing to tryt it?
[03:51] <lightstar> malegria, cool..now you gotta try a php script..
[03:52] <shadeofgrey> mortal5, the ISO is a compressed image of whats on the DVD
[03:52] <theine> shadeofgrey: is it??
[03:52] <lightstar> malegria, you should add "AddType x/application-httpd-php .php" to your httpd.conf..
[03:52] <shadeofgrey> mortal5, usually iso's are used so that the image files for ubuntu installation can be burned to NON dvd media
[03:52] <mortal5> shadeofgrey: the cd iso is 700 mb, the dvd iso is like 4 gig
[03:52] <malegria> lightstar: i need root rights to copy stuff to /var/www right?
[03:52] <shadeofgrey> yeah
[03:53] <mortal5> shadeofgrey: I know about the cd compression
[03:53] <intelikey> malegria yes   sudo
[03:53] <mortal5> but i'm saying, does the dvd include extras?
[03:53] <shadeofgrey> thats because the DVD has more crap on it -- its got like threedifferent install types and one form of the livecd for testing the systrm on your hardware to verify compatability
[03:53] <lightstar> malegria, i think "www-data" owns tat folder
[03:53] <Krhis> mortal5, both are iso's. But with the DVD you use the repo's less.
[03:53] <malegria> lightstar: so thats sudo nautilus?
[03:54] <theine> shadeofgrey: it also has a lot more packages I believe
[03:54] <mortal5> Krhis: yeah i'd like to find a list of the software on the dvd
[03:54] <billybennett> Whats the proper way to share files between 2 ubuntu systems?
[03:54] <lightstar> malegria, add yourself to that group and you'd be able to copy things..if you can't try doing "chmod -R 775 /var/www/html"
[03:54] <intelikey> malegria no
[03:54] <cherwin> billybennett: ssh
[03:54] <loxety> billybennett, proper?
[03:54] <intelikey> malegria no!  not sudo nautilus     gksudo nautilus
[03:54] <Krhis> Can't help you there.... not to sure what else is on there.
[03:54] <loxety> billybennett, scp works well
[03:54] <lightstar> malegria, i use CLI to cp stuff..:)
[03:54] <mortal5> kk
[03:54] <laozi> Anyone here have any idea why the Synaptic Package Manager won't upgrade?
[03:55] <slavik> Krhis: never show that link to anyone, I might actually kill someone next time
[03:55] <malegria> lightstar: whats the difference between sudo and gksudo?
[03:55] <laozi> Err.. won't list updates, only shows current versions.
[03:55] <billybennett> okie thanks cherwin and loxety
[03:55] <Krhis> slavik, LOL, why do you think I /notice'd?
[03:55] <neophiter> Has anyone successfully added the Ubuntu-Desktop package after installing the LAMP Server setup?
[03:55] <slavik> that article really pissed me off
[03:55] <lightstar> malegria, console and gui...gksudo is used to run GUI stuff..because it fixes permissions needed
[03:56] <intelikey> malegria sorry to be butting in like this. but sudo nautilus will break permissions in your home and make gui login impossable until fixed.   for root nautilus  always  use  gksudo
[03:56] <Krhis> Same here, look at the comments.... nothing but bashing.
[03:56] <garryfre> mortal5: If you mean the difference between the live cd and the alternate install cd iso's, the alternate install allows customized setup and installation of the grub boot loader in a text version of the installer.
[03:56] <jighead> billybennett, if the computers are on the same lan, you can use nfs or samba, which will be a bit easier than scp/sftp
[03:56] <malegria> intelikey, lightstar: thanks. still new to that...
[03:57] <AngryElf> guys - i've got a CD in the drive and i'm actively listening to music off of it, yet it's not mounted according to /etc/mtab.........???
[03:57] <billybennett> jighead,  they are definately on the same lan, but I thought samba was just for linux to windows
[03:57] <lightstar> malegria, no prob...took me a while to get used to gksudo as well..
[03:57] <Krhis> slavik, I'm not really pissed, my religon forbids lowering my standards to those who are closed minded.
[03:57] <theine> billybennett: nfs is for linux to linux
[03:57] <garryfre> Could someone take a peek real quick and tell me what their main group is for the login created in dapper install? I changed mine, forgot what it was and now I can't use gksudo without getting an error warning.
[03:58] <theine> billybennett: and samba can probably be used for that as well
[03:58] <jighead> billybennett, samba is a file sharing protocol, linux can do server and client, so it's whatever you feel comfortable setting up
[03:58] <neophiter> Has anyone successfully added the Ubuntu-Desktop package after installing the LAMP Server setup? I can't get Gnome to properly launch -- it may be my Graphics card (nVidia GeForce 4) but I thought nVidia cards were usually pretty well handled in Ubuntu...
[03:58] <intelikey> krhis an open mind is kinda like an open door,  it collects bugs.
[03:58] <rillian> yay, ubuntu at last!!!
[03:58] <jighead> billybennett, nfs is relatively simple, you edit /etc/exports and start the nfs server
[03:59] <slavik> intelikey: open source code can be fixed quickly by many people ... can't say the same for proprietary code ...
[03:59] <billybennett> cause I want change my windows box to ubuntu but I basiclly just set it up for torrents and file sharing
[03:59] <garryfre> anyone please?
[03:59] <intelikey> garryfre main group is same as  'whoami'
[03:59] <cherwin> jighead: you really think samba or nfs is easier then ssh? guess again samba is a pain in the ass to set up shares, and nfs isn't really secure (who gives that the machines are on the same lan, if he has wireless and that gets compromised then you're nowhere) anyway if you install fuse and sshfs you'll be much more secure and everything will work transperantly billbennett, just try it out.
[03:59] <slavik> garryfre: hold on
[04:00] <billybennett> I'll take note cherwin
[04:00] <intelikey> slavik software's not my religion,   but yeah i hear ya.
[04:00] <garryfre> intelikey It would be what I changed it to, so whoami would be wrong possibly.
[04:00] <cherwin> billybennett: please do, it's really easy to set up
[04:00] <slavik> intelikey: my religion is "logic"
[04:00] <shadeofgrey> logic is antigod
[04:00] <Krhis> intelikey, but I think closedmindedness is worse.... those who refuse to even listen to alternitives may not collect bugs, but they don't do much else either.
[04:00] <intelikey> garryfre no whoami gives the user name.  not the group    groups give the groups.
[04:00] <garryfre> nm, seems to be the name of the user. Strangely, this is not available as a choice anymore.
[04:01] <shadeofgrey> not godly
[04:01] <slavik> shadeofgrey: if I see god, I will spit in his eye ...
[04:01] <shadeofgrey> i doubt pure logic wouild be cionsidered rteligious
[04:01] <garryfre> intelikey yeah, so I see. Thanks I try looking again.
[04:01] <shadeofgrey> thats a better way of saying what i jujst tried to say
[04:01] <Krhis> Stubbornness beening a better word.
[04:01] <slavik> shadeofgrey: it's OT now but logic is how I think ...
[04:01] <Madpilot> shadeofgrey - and others - religion is OT here, thanks...
[04:02] <slavik> Madpilot: was about to say
[04:02] <jrsims> how do I mount an ntfs partition?
[04:02] <slavik> all discussion about retarded windows users and brain-dead conservatives in #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:02] <tux0010> i am seeing X freeze a lot when using alsa
[04:02] <intelikey> garryfre it can be any avalable group..... one should look into that in the docs  but you can make a group with sudo groupadd
[04:02] <malegria> lightstar: how do i find the (root?)password for phpmyadmin/mysql? or set a new one?
[04:02] <shadeofgrey> Madpilot:  sorry man.
[04:03] <Krhis> dd if=/dev/zero.... wait? Mount a NTFS partition??
[04:03] <Madpilot> slavik, phrasing it like that is OT too...
[04:03] <shadeofgrey> Madpilot:  i dont rtend to think about trhat until its too late...
[04:03] <Krhis> Sorry, jk. ^^
[04:03] <lightstar> malegria, have u set the mysql root password?
[04:03] <intelikey> garryfre example     sudo groupadd `whoami`
[04:03] <Madpilot> shadeofgrey, NP, just move it to #ubuntu-offtopic or private chat
[04:03] <lightstar> malegria, by defaul root password is empty
[04:03] <shadeofgrey> Madpilot:  seriously, im genuinely sorry.
[04:03] <cherwin> Krhis: hahaha hilarious
[04:03] <billybennett> cherwin, do you know where I can find help on fuse and sshfs
[04:03] <bimberi> ubotu tell jrsims about mountwindows
[04:03] <hanasaki> tried to run sensors-detect and got this... where is mkdev?  No i2c device files found. Use prog/mkdev/mkdev.sh to create them.
[04:03] <intelikey> then usermod and make it the default garryfre
[04:03] <vinboy> is there a way to limit apt-get's bandwidth?
[04:04] <malegria> lightstar: i havent set nothin
[04:04] <cherwin> billybennett: just google on fuse and sshfs, it's the first hit
[04:04] <ablyss> is firestarter decent firewall ?
[04:04] <garryfre> intelikey strangely, the group garry exists, its just not available in the choices.
[04:04] <lightstar> malegria, then no password..but do remember to set 1..good security practice:)
[04:04] <malegria> lightstar: ok
[04:04] <tux0010> brb
[04:04] <theshibboleth> I'm going through an ubuntu installaion, and the installer freezes when it's 31% finished installing the system
[04:05] <firefly__> theshibboleth: that sucks
[04:05] <intelikey> garryfre man usermod     it's avalable.  just gid is out of range in the gui
[04:05] <Madpilot> theshibboleth, when you first boot an Ubuntu install CD, there's a "Check This CD" option - running that before starting an install is a good idea
[04:06] <jighead> ablyss, firestarter is just a front end to the kernel's iptables, so it will create a good firewall if you understand how to create rules and filter traffic
[04:06] <thechris> has anyone had any luck with mythtv in ubuntu?  are there pacakges for mythtv 0.19 and ivtv 0.4 or 0.6?
[04:06] <theshibboleth> madpilot: I'm not certain that it is a problem with the cd though because this is the second one I've tried that's had a similar problem.
[04:07] <hanasaki> how do i get the i2c stuff?
[04:07] <ablyss> jighead: what about my $50 router with builtin NAT ... would firestarter be useful?
[04:07] <MarcN> thechris: I'm thinking of building a myth box this summer.  What problems are you having?
[04:07] <intelikey> theshibboleth ctrl+alt+f[3-4]    and see what the last thing the installer does.    that info might get you going
[04:07] <Madpilot> theshibboleth, 'real' CDs from ShipIt, or burned? If burned, check the md5sum before burning, and in any case, try the Check This CD" option
[04:07] <hanasaki> ablyss:  iptables by hand rock!
[04:07] <jighead> ablyss, firestarter will not help you config your router
[04:08] <theshibboleth> intelikey: thanks
[04:08] <thechris> MarcN: none yet, i'm actually having issues in gentoo and wanting to switch to *buntu
[04:08] <jighead> ablyss, firestarter will only config the firewall on your ubuntu box
[04:08] <cherwin> jighead: i think he's asking if his NAT router isn't enough..
[04:08] <ablyss> cherwin.. yep
[04:08] <FunnyLookinHat> Anyone here know how to get VNC to allow you to get into a computer at the GDM login screen?
[04:08] <FunnyLookinHat> Right now I have to be logged in to use VNC, way big security hole...  : P
[04:08] <theshibboleth> hmm... now the installer seems to be frozen entirely
[04:09] <cherwin> ablyss: and it isn't, you have to protect your boxes in your lan against eachother
[04:09] <theshibboleth> as in, not even the mouse moves
[04:09] <DShepherd> how can I list directories only at the command line?
[04:09] <FunnyLookinHat> DShepherd, ls
[04:09] <thechris> MarcN: but i really hate it when i'm using a distro that is missing a lot of packages i use, or is missing vital packages.
[04:09] <ablyss> cherwin: hehe.. okay
[04:09] <DShepherd> FunnyLookinHat: that list everthing.. I only want files
[04:09] <FunnyLookinHat> DShepherd, try, man ls
[04:09] <larson9999> well fooey! figured i'd dump mandrake after 8 years and give ubuntu a go.  installation went ok except my ethernet card isn't working.  can't find the gui to reconfigure it like mandrake had
[04:09] <FunnyLookinHat> will give you options
[04:09] <shadeofgrey> oh yeah that reminds me
[04:09] <thechris> and after my terrible experiences with ubuntu on the desktop, i'm wondering if i should even concider it for a server/PVR
[04:09] <DShepherd> FunnyLookinHat: in windows now
[04:09] <shadeofgrey> hey madpilot can i have  a word with you in a PM window?
[04:10] <hanasaki> how do i get the i2c stuff in ubuntu dapper?  sensors-detect
[04:10] <hanasaki> No i2c device files found. Use prog/mkdev/mkdev.sh to create them.
[04:10] <intelikey> theshibboleth sounds like cpu 100%  and/or ram 100%    not a good sign.
[04:10] <FunnyLookinHat> DShepherd, errr...  I dont know windows
[04:10] <boga> anyone can point me to a free news server?
[04:10] <Madpilot> shadeofgrey, sure, but are you registered & id'd w/ nickserv?
[04:11] <Gambit--> I'm trying to get gdm to show it's greeter, but it's just disconnecting me before it gives me the login prompt... anyone have any ideas what I can look for?
[04:11] <intelikey> boga slashdot ?
[04:11] <shadeofgrey> yeah
[04:11] <boga> intelikey: ahh?
[04:11] <Krhis> Or usenet?
[04:11] <Madpilot> intelikey, he asked for news, not random noise ;)
[04:11] <boga> Yes newsnet
[04:12] <intelikey> lol Madpilot yeah sorry,
[04:12] <tristanmike> Hi, I need some help with Azureus please.  I installed via the repositories, but when I minimize/close to system tray, it dissapears, I have to select it from the menu in order to access it again. Also, when I get pop up messages from it, they don't go away when I click the "Hide" button. Does anyone else have this issue or know what might be wrong ?.
[04:12] <theshibboleth> It's weird because I actually was able to install suse on this computer
[04:12] <Madpilot> shadeofgrey, then PM anytime
[04:12] <Krhis> newsnet?
[04:13] <intelikey> Madpilot actually i never use the stuff my self... so i wouldn't know what was good
[04:13] <boga> Krhis: yes, newsnet
[04:13] <boga> or usenet
[04:13] <Madpilot> intelikey, I don't use Usenet much either
[04:13] <Krhis> I don't know of any newsnet.
[04:13] <Krhis> Yes, that's it.....
[04:13] <Krhis> All I can suggest is "Google Groups" but you're looking for a server.
[04:14] <theshibboleth> Would there be any point in, for example, trying to change the file system to see if the installer works then?
[04:14] <Krhis> boga, http://freenews.maxbaud.net/
[04:14] <intelikey> many or most isp's provide a news feed with many servers....
[04:14] <boga> thanx
[04:16] <Krhis> Anytime, boga
[04:16] <laozi> I've used freebsd, red hat, and of course windows as a desktop OS and never had as many problems as with Ubuntu.  :/
[04:16] <cheti> hey all
[04:16] <dou213> hey guys, i've installed vmware-player... what now?
[04:16] <cheti> any help for a novice user to be found in here
[04:17] <cheti> i eman real novice - copy paste level
[04:17] <slavik> cheti, if you don't ask a real question or state a real problem, you won't get any help
[04:17] <slavik> !ask

[04:17] <cheti> ah sorry
[04:17] <slavik> just ask/state
[04:17] <slavik> it's one of those "don't introduce what you want to say, just say it" type of thing :)
[04:18] <laozi> intelikey, Just grumbling...
[04:18] <larson9999> dou213 go to hackaday and hack yourself some images
[04:18] <intelikey> oh, intelikey grumbles too
[04:18] <Arabian> hm, ssh server on ubuntu dapper, how do I get it the most easy way?
[04:18] <cheti> question : while starting up the live cd of dapper i got a failed to init xserve and i dont get a gui. Jsut get a command prompt at ubuntu@ubuntu level
[04:18] <hanasaki> if i build my own kernel for ubuntu.. how can i get he nvidia drivers / module?
[04:18] <laozi> I think I now corrupted my sources.list and don't have a back up, that's the latest disaster.
[04:18] <frostoftheblack> Arabian: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[04:18] <cheti> have a geforce fx 5500 card
[04:18] <slavik> cheti: what video card do you have?
[04:18] <slavik> hmm
[04:18] <Arabian> frostoftheblack: thanks
[04:19] <cheti> works pretty well on a whole ton of other live cds ..
[04:19] <slavik> laozi: you can get an official one from the wiki pages :)
[04:19] <Arabian> frostoftheblack: then the rest is pretty automatic?
[04:19] <slavik> cheti, something is weird for sure
[04:19] <frostoftheblack> Arabian: after that, the daemon sarts running automagically
[04:19] <intelikey> laozi dapper
[04:19] <larson9999> hate to have to reinstall mandriva just because i can't get ethernet owrkin
[04:19] <slavik> cheti: go to /mnt
[04:19] <Arabian> frostoftheblack: fantastic! I love ubuntu
[04:19] <cheti> aaaargh - i just used karoraa with xgl and am thirsting to get dapper up and running on ym machine. want to isntall it.. partitioned off 35 gb but no smoke
[04:20] <cheti> slavik: you mean once i get to the command prompt of ubuntu@ubuntu ? after i get the xserve init error?
[04:20] <slavik> yes
[04:20] <dou213> larson9999, link?
[04:20] <cheti> ok .. will ahve to write the instructions down please do go on
[04:21] <dou213> http://www.hackaday.com/entry/1234000153064739/ ?
[04:21] <frostoftheblack> Anyone know if it is possible to boot an ISO image that is on the hard drive?
[04:21] <slavik> X problem: when I start my laptop, I get the GDM screen. I log in and GNOME loads. Once it's done loading, it just restarts (X). I read that this is a kernel bug and I am not sure how to fix it. Only thing I did was upgrade from 15-21 kernel to the 15-23 kernel. It started doing it since. I have installed Dapper on my friend's laptop and on my work system and it doesn't do it ...
[04:21] <cheti> frostofthebalck: just looked for the exact same thign before heading out and buying blank cds
[04:21] <intelikey> frostoftheblack possable yes, easy no.
[04:21] <slavik> frostoftheblack: only through something like vmware
[04:22] <malegria> lightstar: again... when i start phpmyadmin and put root/blank, i get an error message that says that the mysql-socket has to be configured
[04:22] <cheti> slavik : /mnt followed by?
[04:22] <lightstar> malegria, did you try sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[04:22] <frostoftheblack> intelikey, slavik: Assuming I don't have a cd-rom drive to use, is it better to try this method or to do a network boot?
[04:22] <slavik> just mnt and then list everything there and tell me what you have
[04:22] <cheti> is it a problme with bios - i have oem gateway machine
[04:22] <cheti> ok brb then
[04:22] <Andares> Hi iwir3d
[04:23] <intelikey> frostoftheblack unless you are on dialup do the net

[04:23] <garryfre> intelikey That did not work. It will not let me change the main group of my main login, bitching about a password file not being able to open and I tried on the command line from another user and it failed. It looks like I must format and reinstall.

[04:25] <slavik> X problem: when I start my laptop, I get the GDM screen. I log in and GNOME loads. Once it's done loading, it just restarts (X). I read that this is a kernel bug and I am not sure how to fix it. Only thing I did was upgrade from 15-21 kernel to the 15-23 kernel. It started doing it since. I have installed Dapper on my friend's laptop and on my work system and it doesn't do it ...
[04:25] <garryfre> intelikey Yes, its gksudo that's having fits. The main group for my main login is now users. I think it was garry before.
[04:25] <edvinasMD5> poland is the worst actually
[04:25] <winbond> um , no
[04:25] <lightstar> malegria, ahhh..you need to install mysql-server
[04:25] <eyequeue> edvinasMD5, stop the hate in here please
[04:25] <edvinasMD5> is 2004 polish bera was the worst
[04:25] <adamant1988> edvinasMD5: lay off the language.  First off,  edvinasMD5 it's better to have everyone think you a fool, then to speak and remove all doubt.  Show us that you have an above room-temp I.Q. and be quiet.
[04:25] <intelikey> garryfre that's ok.   sudo does work ?

[04:26] <DBO> DShepherd, oh that will work nice enough, but you will get some odd characters on executable files and such
[04:26] <garryfre> intelikey Yes, however gksudo says this even tho garry is logged in .... ** (gksudo:7251): WARNING **: Owner of /tmp/orbit-garryfre is not the current user

[04:27] <hx10> Is the driver supported by ndiswrapper?
[04:27] <intelikey> garryfre ok log out and log back in then test.
[04:27] <BhamGray> hx10: Yes, it's listed on the Wiki as being supported
[04:27] <slavik> hx10: I would doubt it unless the ndiswrapper wiki says otherwise
[04:27] <slavik> nvm
[04:27] <garryfre> intelikey Already tried. It failed.

[04:28] <s|k> anyone?
[04:28] <eyequeue> Madpilot, thanks
[04:28] <s|k> how do I get information about ubuntu from the command line?
[04:28] <edvinasMD5> eyequeue, np
[04:28] <DBO> no, but with the -F option you will get files with @ at the end of their name because they are executable
[04:28] <Madpilot> iwir3d, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:28] <cherwin> iwir3d: www.pastebin.com
[04:28] <iwir3d> ok

[04:28] <iwir3d> but really.. can anyone help me =/
[04:28] <intelikey> s|k what info you looking for ?
[04:28] <Madpilot> edvinasMD5, anything more out of you will result in a ban - clear?
[04:29] <iwir3d> im new to linux but ive been learning pretty fast
[04:29] <s|k> intelikey: which version of ubuntu I have
[04:29] <DShepherd> DBO: ok
[04:29] <hx10> Well, I had a problem with ndiswrapper installing my wireless card, but I searched around the net and managed to do it with a frontend application, which I can't remember the name of because it was about 6 months ago
[04:29] <s|k> gigaclon: uname doesn't do that
[04:29] <intelikey> lsb_release s|k
[04:29] <DBO> DShepherd, I mean you get a * because they are executable
[04:29] <s|k> intelikey: thank you
[04:29] <DShepherd> DBO: thats fine.. I just want the directories.. or no directories
[04:29] <hx10> ndisgtk maybe
[04:29] <slavik> hx10: search for ndis in synaptic
[04:29] <DBO> DShepherd, jump back to offtopic and we can discuss this easier
[04:29] <slavik> it is probably ndiswrappergtk or something
[04:30] <keleus> got an openGL question
[04:30] <edvinasMD5> Madpilot, don't scare me :) if you think it's hard to change an ip you can put ban risgt now. Im just sitting here for interest of ubuntu and there is one bad thing about me, i can kill all polish people. that's what i want to say, it's your decition what to do now with me, ban or not
[04:30] <keleus> ive got an ati radeon 145M IGP (laptop) and it works with the X driver "radeon" and direct rendering
[04:30] <hx10> Thanks slavik but I don't need help, I'm trying to help someone :P; What I need help with is the stv680 for my webcam
[04:31] <keleus> but glxinfo and other tests state I'm using Mesa OpenGL (SGI/Tungsten) - thats software rendering right?
[04:31] <intelikey> garryfre results ?
[04:31] <keleus> how do i get it to use hardware acceleration
[04:31] <loxety> is there an 64bit x86 verison of ubuntu?
[04:31] <adamant1988> edvinasMD5: you'd be suprised how wide bans can get.
[04:31] <BhamGray> hx10: ndisgtk
[04:31] <garryfre> intelikey Same thing. It says my main group is still users.
[04:31] <cherwin> Madpilot: :^)
[04:32] <keleus> can anyone get me some help?
[04:32] <user6266> does anyone know how to set macchanger to spoof and address at boot?
[04:32] <s|k> intelikey: say I tried to upgrade my ubuntu-server to dapper with dist-upgrade but I still get version 5.10
[04:32] <matti> Madpilot: If he/she own a xDSL, that will not save us from he/she for long, but thanks! You're great :)
[04:32] <cherwin> user6266: use ifconfig
[04:32] <keleus> is there a way to try a program with different openGL? (say glxgears - which no longer gives FPS btw :/ )
[04:33] <s|k> intelikey: any idea why it's not upgradeing? am I doing it wrong or is there no newer version?
[04:33] <jughead> keleus, glxgears shows fps
[04:33] <intelikey> garryfre pastebin the error message and the results of these three commands.   ls -l $HOME      groups        cat /etc/sudoers    please.
[04:33] <adamant1988> where does it show FPS
[04:33] <adamant1988> ?
[04:33] <jughead> glxgears -printfps
[04:33] <adamant1988> My glxgears just shows gears...
[04:33] <lightstar> s|k, silly question but have you changed the repos to point to dapper in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[04:33] <jughead> you have to put that
[04:33] <keleus> wasnt it the default before?
[04:34] <s|k> lightstar: that's not a silly question at all :S
[04:34] <jughead> i believe so
[04:34] <s|k> lightstar: thanks
[04:34] <loxety> is there a noticable difference between the 32 and 64bit versions?
[04:34] <intelikey> s|k   you changed the sources.list to all dapper    did apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade   ???
[04:34] <noisy_1> is there a way to restore source files after an incomplete mv ?
[04:34] <lightstar> s|k, :)
[04:34] <keleus> 1556 frames in 5.0 seconds = 311.101 FPS
[04:34] <keleus> WTF
[04:34] <keleus> even so, it was ~140 using the "ati" driver
[04:34] <jughead> keleus, that stinks man what card?
[04:34] <s|k> intelikey: doing that now ;)
[04:34] <keleus> so its an improvement
[04:34] <keleus> jughead; ATI Radeon 345M IGP (built in laptop card)
[04:34] <EnterUserName> hi all
[04:35] <EnterUserName> im lookign for a cross compiler for nlsu2

[04:35] <EnterUserName> where can i find ubuntu sources for that
[04:35] <keleus> jughead; its using MESA openGL for some reason and im trying to figure out how to change/test others
[04:35] <keleus> jughead; MESA is software opengl
[04:35] <keleus> i think...
[04:35] <BhamGray> I'm trying to get a Truemobile 1450 MiniPCI wireless card working on a Dell D600 Laptop
[04:36] <larson9999> oh boy seems there are lots of irq issues
[04:36] <jughead> I'm getting >4700 FPS on my radeon 9800pro
[04:36] <BhamGray> I have installed the driver from Dell via the ndiswrapper
[04:37] <BhamGray> But now I'm stuck
[04:38] <fartmastr> why compile my own kernel?

[04:42] <Okita> I'm having a strange problem where it says the nvidia X module and kernel module have an API mismatch.  I can "fix" this problem by rerunning the latest nvidia installer script, but it just gives me the same error after a reboot
[04:42] <user6266> thanks
[04:42] <user6266> I'll give that a shot
[04:42] <deameyes> while trying to build libjpeg and it says "arm-elf-gcc: Command not found", any suggestions?
[04:42] <garryfre> Okita: do you have access to the gui at all?
[04:43] <nameless14> I have been making links in /var/ftp from /var/storage/ (i am running vsftpd) and when i run the ftp client i can see the file but i cant open\download\access it. I have tried logging in as root to acess the file and still have the same problem. does anyone know a way around this. (and if its hardlinks thats still a problem as /var/storage is a different harddrive
[04:43] <laozi> okita, i tihnk there was a guy in here earlier with the same problem.
[04:43] <garryfre> Okita: and are you using Dapper or Breezy.
[04:43] <loxety> what are some 3d games that are available?
[04:43] <fartmastr> why compile my own kernel?
[04:43] <intelikey> garryfre sujest you do a     sudo usermod -g "garry" -G "users adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin" garry  && sudo chown gary:gary /home/gary -R           then try the logout/in again.
[04:43] <BioVorE> loxety: UT2k4/doom3/doom4 just to name a few big titles
[04:44] <BioVorE> (quake3)
[04:44] <loxety> BioVorE, free in ubuntu?
[04:44] <laozi> fartmastr, You could pop your kernel instead, try puttin gyour computer in the microwave.
[04:44] <BioVorE> loxety: well you need to commercial disc for the data files..
[04:44] <fartmastr> laozi, hilarious, +1 to funny, or whatever
[04:44] <fartmastr> anyone have a real answer?
[04:44] <loxety> BioVorE, looking for something to test out the video
[04:44] <Okita> garryfre: I'm using Dapper
[04:44] <loxety> BioVorE, glxgears doesnt cut it
[04:45] <intelikey> garryfre you can paste that to terminal as one line command.  --> sudo usermod -g "garry" -G "users adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin" garry  && sudo chown gary:gary /home/gary -R <---
[04:45] <BioVorE> loxety: type glxgears -printfps into a console..  not exactly a benchmarch but kinda cool
[04:45] <Okita> garryfre: Running the Nvidia installer script makes me able to startx, but on reboot, I get the API mismatch again
[04:45] <BioVorE> loxety: hmm .. check out happypenguin.com I think
[04:45] <loxety> 33745 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6748.939 FPS
[04:45] <Okita> I'm trying the stuff on this page: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=58250
[04:45] <garryfre> ok, going ot try that, but will use garry for the chown part instead of garry. will be back
[04:45] <Okita> Does that sound like what the other guy did to solve his problem?
[04:46] <Dial_tone> are groupnames recognized across systems for nfs mounts? I have a filesystem exported on BoxA, user joe has uid 1000 on BoxA but uid 1001 on BoxB. If joe is in wheel on both boxes will that work or I need to get the uids in sync?
[04:46] <intelikey> garryfre garry:garry    yeah.
[04:46] <intelikey> and the group if i misspelled it garryfre
[04:46] <loxety> BioVorE, .org :)
[04:47] <malegria> lightstar: now it works ;)
[04:47] <BioVorE> loxety: yeah thats it..
[04:47] <lightstar> malegria, cool:D with phpmyadmin as well?
[04:47] <malegria> lightstar: yes
[04:47] <intelikey> back in 10.
[04:48] <lightstar> malegria, :D..cool then;) regarding your php4 scripts...if you're using classes change the "var" to either "public/private";)
[04:48] <larson9999> if i need pci=noacpi, where do i put it?
[04:48] <lightstar> malegria, otherwise if u enable strict checking it would print out msgs stating tat var is depreceated
[04:48] <garryfre> say intelikey I got this as a response ...  unknown group users adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin
[04:49] <malegria> lightstar: i'll figure that out
[04:49] <lightstar> malegria, :) cool then
[04:49] <intelikey> garryfre errrrr maybe unquote and use , commas to seperate
[04:49] <BioVorE> hmmm according to winehq.org wine opengl is faster then windows native..  3dMark shows about a 7% boost
[04:50] <garryfre> intelikey ok, trying that.

[04:58] <PetrolBomb> Can I convert a WMV to MP3?
[04:58] <eclypse> sup all
[04:58] <Andares> PetrolBomb, you mean WMA?
[04:58] <RageMax> I can't seem to get the livecd to boot my root fs
[04:58] <Andares> Because WMV is video.
[04:58] <PetrolBomb> Yeh
[04:58] <PetrolBomb> Can I convert it to audio?
[04:59] <intelikey> ubotu seems to be under attack
[04:59] <Krhis> Legally no. ^^
[04:59] <Andares> PetrolBomb, not with ubuntu's tools most likely.
[04:59] <Hobbsee> cafuego: any idea what's happened to ubotu?
[04:59] <Andares> Because it's "illegeal and dark" to use anything besides ogg apparently
[04:59] <BioVorE> boga: even though I think vlc and xine will do it as well
[04:59] <odat> intelikey, really?
[04:59] <PetrolBomb> Does the repos have a program for world peace?
[04:59] <RageMax> PetrolBomb: get VLC and lookup a transcoding tutorial online
[04:59] <ubotu> to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions there is no write support for ntfs that is safe. <!winfstab>
[04:59] <intelikey> yep
[04:59] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, intelikey
[04:59] <malegria> lightstar: and the part in brackets after OLD_... is the new password?
[04:59] <intelikey> see the lag time

[05:04] <intelikey> uparrow and fix
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> mkdev.sh is deperciated i thought
[05:04] <hanasaki> Dr_Willis: what replaces it?
[05:05] <lightstar> wubrgamer, userdel -r completely removes all traces of the  user...including their home directory, for further information man userdel will explain more
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> the dynamic dev system i thought udev (?)
[05:05] <JohnsonE> companions! I need to play wma files
[05:06] <malegria> lightstar: i forgot the ; , but it still doesnt change...
[05:06] <wubrgamer> thanks
[05:06] <hanasaki> Dr_Willis: when i run sensors-detect it says No i2c device files found. Use prog/mkdev/mkdev.sh to create them.
[05:06] <wubrgamer> how do i reset ubuntu ?
[05:06] <wubrgamer> like
[05:06] <lightstar> lightstar, change? did you try logging out and loggin back in?

[05:06] <lightstar> malegria, change? did you try logging out and loggin back in?
[05:06] <m1ke_l> if i install ubuntu, then apt-get install kubuntu-desktop...will gnome still be an option?
[05:06] <hanasaki> Dr_Willis: modprobe what?
[05:07] <fishfillet> johnson, look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> hanasaki,  ya run the sensors-detect config script yet?
[05:07] <wubrgamer> yes
[05:07] <malegria> lightstar: ok, it works. forgot the flush...
[05:07] <malegria> lightstar: thanx, youre good!
[05:07] <hanasaki> Dr_Willis:
[05:07] <hanasaki> Dr_Willis: when i run sensors-detect it says No i2c device files found. Use prog/mkdev/mkdev.sh to create them.
[05:08] <lightstar> malegria, no prob...had plenty of experience..hehehe
[05:08] <bobby> I'm after an app that will show me what traffic is going over what port (live and total would be handy)...web based or app based is fine...any help?
[05:08] <wubrgamer> yeah, i can't log into gnome
[05:08] <wubrgamer> or even failsafe gnome
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> modprove i2c-core.ko    perhaps
[05:08] <wubrgamer> how do i allow root login from gdm thru cmd line ?
[05:08] <lightstar> bobby, ntop would do it..or ethereal
[05:08] <JohnsonE> if i install the restirctedformats codecs can XMMS play them?
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> wubrgamer,  somthing made no sence there.
[05:09] <intelikey> Dr_Willis typo
[05:09] <hanasaki> FATAL: Module i2c_core.ko not found.
[05:09] <jighead> wubrgamer, did you use that userdel command on your account?
[05:09] <wubrgamer> yes
[05:09] <eyequeue> wubrgamer, root login is not advised
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> lib/modules/2.6.15-23-386/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.ko
[05:09] <lightstar> wubrgamer, i don;t think you can get root through gdm..
[05:09] <wubrgamer> i have root
[05:09] <fartmastr> why compile my own kernel?
[05:09] <fishfillet> wubrgamer: Ctrl + Alt + Backspace?!
[05:09] <wubrgamer> what ?
[05:09] <lightstar> wubrgamer, u used userdel on your account?????
[05:09] <Eleaf> Whenever my audio dies (applications can't connect to it) how do I restart the sound system?
[05:09] <bobby> ethereal provides far to much data...two meg pipe always in use :P ...will check out ntop though
[05:09] <wubrgamer> yes
[05:09] <fishfillet> bobby: etherape or etherreal ?
[05:09] <jighead> wubrgamer, ctl+alt+F1 will get you a console to log in as root
[05:09] <wubrgamer> i know
[05:09] <wubrgamer> and i can do that
[05:09] <eyequeue> !tell wubrgamer about root
[05:09] <wubrgamer> dammit guys
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> just  kill gdm and use 'startx' as root. is one way
[05:10] <wubrgamer> i know the fucking dangers of root login, and i REALLY don't care
[05:10] <wubrgamer> how do i kill GDM ?
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> or edit the gdm config
[05:10] <wubrgamer> how do i reset GDM config ?
[05:10] <hanasaki> ls /lib/modules/2.6.15-23-686/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.ko
[05:10] <hanasaki> /lib/modules/2.6.15-23-686/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.ko
[05:10] <jighead> wubrgamer, /etc/init.d/gdm stop

[05:10] <wubrgamer> as well as the start up scripts
[05:10] <lightstar> wubrgamer, :S...y did you do that?
[05:10] <hanasaki> ah.. no .ko on it dr
[05:10] <m1ke_l> dou213:  you have to install a guest
[05:10] <fishfillet> johnson: xmms playing wma?! i havent tried... its ok with totem
[05:10] <eclypse> hey all, I'm still getting the infamous configure problem....
[05:10] <eyequeue> wubrgamer, your vulnerability makes US a target from your zombie machine

[05:10] <eclypse> heres the error
[05:10] <eclypse> checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!

[05:11] <eclypse> k
[05:11] <eyequeue> wubrgamer, you don't know of zombies?
[05:11] <intelikey> Dr_Willis it be's one of them there learnen' thangs
[05:11] <m1ke_l> dou213:  not sure what you mean...start vmware. build guest, point to cd or iso..install guest
[05:11] <wubrgamer> sorry
[05:11] <lightstar> wubrgamer, root by default doenst have a password..and its nvr advisable to run as root as eyequeue and some others have mentioned
[05:11] <wubrgamer> zombie ?
[05:11] <hanasaki> if i build my own kernel.. how do i rebuild the nvidia kernel module?
[05:11] <Dr_Willis> intelikey,  yea.. guess so.. 'i  KNOW i need to do this! i dont want to learn anything else!'
[05:11] <wubrgamer> zombie ?
[05:12] <wubrgamer> what's a zombie ?
[05:12] <ome_> there a list somewhere of whats working on wine?
[05:13] <intelikey> zombie=pid without an actual process
[05:13] <Dr_Willis> ome_,  check he wine home page?

[05:14] <cheti> hey all - getting a 'failed to start xserver' error when running the live cd
[05:14] <eyequeue> !caps
[05:14] <ubotu> FYI, typing in ALL CAPS is considered to be 'yelling', and therefore rude behaviour.
[05:14] <someothernick> ome_, http://appdb.winehq.org/
[05:14] <eclypse> I installed all those packages, and I still get that X includes error...
[05:14] <lightstar> intelikey, i think he's asking what a zombie comp is
[05:14] <eclypse> what else can I do???
[05:14] <cheti> x output doesnt say anyhting  - jsut the linux os version
[05:15] <eclypse> I'm still getting the X includes error when running ./configure
[05:15] <eclypse> after installing all necessary package
[05:15] <eclypse> packages
[05:15] <eclypse> even auto-apt
[05:15] <cheti> any ideas anyone ? i have a geforce fx5500 card and i am able to boot into gui if i use safe mode for graphics
[05:15] <eclypse> any suggestions?
[05:15] <Dr_Willis> eclypse,  fire up synaptic and look for X related -dev packages and start installing. :P is what i did
[05:15] <lightstar> eclypse, just out of curiosity... why are you trying to compile X?
[05:16] <eclypse> I'm not
[05:16] <malegria> ok lightstar, i'm taking off. thanks a lot. helped me a bunch!
[05:16] <cheti> !ask x server error during live cd bootup - geforce fx 5500 card , safe mode graphic botts into gui though
[05:16] <eclypse> I'm trying to compile a theme from source
[05:16] <ubotu> cheti: I'm sorry, i don't know what you're talking about
[05:16] <eclypse> and its giving me this error.
[05:16] <lightstar> malegria, no problem..see you:)

[05:16] <wubrgamer> i'm just re-install ubuntu
[05:16] <intelikey> Dr_Willis will gksudo work if sudoers is set to 'either' adm  or  admin  ???  or is gksudo picky ?
[05:17] <InvisiblePinkUni> !control panel
[05:17] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, InvisiblePinkUni
[05:17] <Dr_Willis> GaiaX11,  a small fan  - may be for the north bridge. you can get large heatsink replacements for the fan for like $5
[05:17] <Dr_Willis> GaiaX11,  or get a new better fan for it for about $14
[05:17] <InvisiblePinkUni> where do i find the control panel to setup a catchall email address?
[05:17] <Dr_Willis> intelikey,  not sure - cant say that ive ever mucked with sudoers that much
[05:17] <starkruzr> guys, I have an NV20 chipset graphics card (GeForce 3 Ti200) and for some reason the only resolution I can pick is 640x480.  I am running the nvidia binary driver.  Anyone know what might be wrong?
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> starkruzr,  check the monitor settings - for a start
[05:18] <InvisiblePinkUni> is there a control panel in ubuntu?
[05:18] <cheti> !ask x server error during live cd bootup - geforce fx 5500 card , safe mode graphic botts into gui though
[05:18] <ubotu> I'm sorry, i don't know what you're talking about, cheti
[05:18] <GaiaX11> Dr_Willis, Do you think that if i use the machine without it anything could go wrong?
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> InvisiblePinkUni,  gnome and kde both have theior control-menu and panel programs.
[05:19] <intelikey> Dr_Willis i can't even test cause nosuid here.
[05:19] <Dr_Willis> GaiaX11,  it may crash if ya play games.. or may over heat and crash
[05:19] <cheti> anyone have any idea bout xserver errors? please help
[05:19] <starkruzr> Dr_Willis: What are you referring to when you say "monitor settings?"
[05:19] <intelikey> cheti what error ?
[05:20] <cheti> intellikey: it says failed to start xserver when booting form livecd
[05:20] <cheti> but it boots jsut fine in safe graphics mode
[05:20] <intelikey> starkruzr vsync and hrefresh
[05:20] <starkruzr> Dr_Willis: Under "Screen Resolution" in Preferences the only option I have is 640x480.
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> starkruzr,  the x configs have 'video card' settings then settings for what the monitor can do. If the system thinks the monitor can only handle 640x480 or whatever. thats what it will default to.
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> !fixres
[05:20] <ubotu> Help to fix the display resolution is available at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> starkruzr,  that preferamnces tool dsent actually 'set' the res. its just reading what the monitor CAN do from the xorg.conf file
[05:20] <starkruzr> what's weird is it worked fine on my GeForce FX 6600.
[05:21] <starkruzr> same monitor.
[05:21] <starkruzr> and, ok.
[05:21] <intelikey> cheti live cd is kinda out of the normal x realm   sorry.
[05:21] <SAM_theman> hello?
[05:21] <Dr_Willis> starkruzr,  ive fought with the X configs for ages. :P its just the kind of thing it pays to dive in and read/learn about.
[05:21] <SAM_theman> I was watching the Heat Game
[05:21] <SAM_theman> We are losing
[05:22] <cheti> ok wish me lcuk first time iom trying to install dapper .. first time trying to install linux
[05:22] <SAM_theman> cheti, Good luck
[05:22] <Andares> kk
[05:22] <cheti> thank you all
[05:22] <intelikey> cheti seeing that it works in safe mode  there is no doubt that it can be fixed.  the installed linux is the place to work on it tho.
[05:22] <cheti> ok intelikey will install it..
[05:23] <cheti> one small question though - i ahve  35 gig formatted partition .. its ntfs
[05:23] <cheti> do i need to make any changes to it before i give ubunut the go ahed to install on it
[05:23] <SAM_theman> cheti, Well are u willing to lose windows?
[05:23] <intelikey> cheti linux can't live in ntfs space with out scba gear
[05:23] <fishfillet> cheti: good luck!
[05:23] <fishfillet> SAM: Dallas is winning?
[05:23] <cheti> its on a seperate hard drive- the slave drive
[05:24] <cheti> my c:/ is on a seperate drive
[05:24] <SAM_theman> fishfillet, yup
[05:24] <cheti> tahnks fish
[05:24] <cheti> :)
[05:24] <SAM_theman> fishfillet, I Think its MIA=68 and DAL=77
[05:24] <cheti> sam: so i wont lose windows then right?
[05:25] <SAM_theman> cheti, Umm..
[05:25] <intelikey> cheti the installer will ask you if it's ok to make that partition ext3   just be sure you select the drive that windows is not on.
[05:25] <ubuntuking> i hope that mia wins
[05:25] <SAM_theman> cheti, I'm not sure my friend
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> cheti,  you do mean a septarte hard drive.. not jsut a single hard drive with several partitions?
[05:25] <cheti> i think ill take it easy and jsut partition it to ext3 before attempting.. do it from windows with aprtition amgic
[05:25] <SAM_theman> cheti, I have Windows And ubutnu on the same HD
[05:25] <fishfillet> SAM: thanks, im about to win another 50 bucks :)
[05:25] <cheti> yes
[05:25] <slavik> cheti: you're back :D
[05:25] <cheti> dr willis: yes
[05:25] <cheti> hey slavik :)
[05:25] <SAM_theman> fishfillet, No problem...trader
[05:25] <fishfillet> cheti: just try to go for dual boot...
[05:25] <cheti> i bring back tales of noob horror
[05:26] <slavik> cheti: are you trying to install onto the system which you are currently using?
[05:26] <cheti> umm yes
[05:26] <cheti> i have jsut the one
[05:26] <bhearsmu> i'm in the middle of doing an upgrade to dapper and while its unpacking/setting up a bunch of packages 'update-menus.real' goes defunct
[05:26] <fishfillet> cheti: yes, partition magic will do :)
[05:26] <bhearsmu> if i kill the process dpkg gets an error but continues along
[05:26] <cheti> to ext 3right?
[05:26] <bhearsmu> anyone had this problem?
[05:26] <Dr_Willis> Eww Partition Magic. lol
[05:26] <intelikey> cheti yeah or better yet just delete the partition and let the linux installer make one on the free space.... the installer likes that.
[05:26] <cheti> haha
[05:26] <slavik> cheti: the whole point of looking into /mnt was to find the ramdisk which is where I think ubuntu loads all the stuff from the live CD then to edit the X configuration to use something that is more failsafe ...
[05:27] <tonyyarusso> I'll second that.  Use GParted.
[05:27] <cheti> i did a /mnt but jsut got slappe on the wrists
[05:27] <cheti> ubuntu@ubuntu: /mnnt
[05:27] <ubuntuking> i was just installing on a pc today, and the default partitioner choked
[05:27] <cheti> bash users wrists
[05:27] <cheti> summat like taht
[05:27] <TheoMurpse> Hey, I downloaded the Ubuntu 6.06 ISO for x86 (passes MD5 test), and have tried burning 3 times at the lowest speed my burner supports (8x), and keep getting read errors when I have Nero verify the burn afterwards. Has this been a problem with other people?
[05:28] <bhearsmu> TheoMurpse: sounds like a problem with the drive or media
[05:28] <Dr_Willis> TheoMurpse,  havent heard of problems with it lately.
[05:29] <intelikey> TheoMurpse if it's been much of a problem it would show up on the wiki/forum's
[05:29] <TheoMurpse> intelikey, thanks. Hopefully someone else knows of a solution.
[05:29] <TheoMurpse> Thanks all.
[05:29] <intelikey> TheoMurpse you can search http://ubuntu.com
[05:30] <cheti> anyone know the place to go for the most noob friendlt install instructions for xgl on dapper?
[05:30] <GaiaX11> Dr_Willis, do i have to get the same model of asus motherboard northbridge heatsink to replace the other or it does not matter?
[05:30] <slavik> TheoMurpse: have you tried running the disk?
[05:30] <slavik> X problem: when I start my laptop, I get the GDM screen. I log in and GNOME loads. Once it's done loading, it just restarts (X). I read that this is a kernel bug and I am not sure how to fix it. Only thing I did was upgrade from 15-21 kernel to the 15-23 kernel. It started doing it since. I have installed Dapper on my friend's laptop and on my work system and it doesn't do it ...
[05:30] <intelikey> cheti wiki's i'd think.
[05:30] <Dr_Willis> GaiaX11,   i doubt it it matters. check out that xoxide.com (i think) site that sells parts.
[05:30] <slavik> cheti: and the forums

[05:31] <Dr_Willis> GaiaX11,  i got a large heatsink to replace the fan on my main pc.. then opened it up and realized it allready had one. :P
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> intelikey,  this is just a Large heatsink for the northbridge. :P no fan at all. just a copper heatsink about 5x as tall as the normal one+fan
[05:33] <intelikey> ja
[05:33] <zaudragon> does Ubuntu support one button mice?

[05:34] <slavik> X problem: when I start my laptop, I get the GDM screen. I log in and GNOME loads. Once it's done loading, it just restarts (X). I read that this is a kernel bug and I am not sure how to fix it. Only thing I did was upgrade from 15-21 kernel to the 15-23 kernel. It started doing it since. I have installed Dapper on my friend's laptop and on my work system and it doesn't do it ...
[05:34] <tonyyarusso> I just discovered something: There's an Ubuntu package search option in the Firefox search toolbar.
[05:34] <slavik> zaudragon: even osx supports a one button mouse :P
[05:34] <slavik> tonyyarusso: wtf?
[05:34] <tonyyarusso> slavik: Take a look.  Who knew?
[05:34] <slavik> tonyyarusso: how? just in google?
[05:35] <zaudragon> slavik: ok
[05:35] <slavik> or what?
[05:35] <SAM_theman> ?
[05:35] <tonyyarusso> slavik: No, click the G, and you'll get a list of options, Google, Yahoo, Wikipedia, and others.  There are like 9.
[05:35] <harry> I always get the error message: DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER if my DVD-rom or any cd-rom is not connected
[05:36] <slavik> bah, shutdown my laptop
[05:36] <jtrnp> Hey.  Can anyone tell me why when I do an iptables flush, my ssh server freezes and refuses to reconnect until I reboot?
[05:36] <intelikey> tonyyarusso good on ya mate.    but as to the who knew, my standard reply(not liking ff) would be who cared  :0
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> intelikey: So you would be what, Opera, Epiphany, other?
[05:36] <intelikey> links2 -g
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> Ah yes.
[05:36] <intelikey> the lighter the better
[05:36] <tophfisher> I am looking for input. Where should I go to talk to Ubuntu users about what they would like to hear in my new Linux Podcast? I tried Ubuntu-offtopic but got no response.
[05:37] <SAM_theman> Who here plays Enemy Territory on linux?
[05:37] <SAM_theman> version 2.60
[05:37] <garryfre> intelikey Thanks. I finally got the thing fixed after you said to replace final comma with a space. I also had to use userdel after rebooting to remove the temporary garryfre account because dapper thought the account was still logged in.
[05:37] <Winkie_> sup guys I have the same problem as this dude: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1096496 .. Anyone know of a simple solution? I've been searching around with no luck

[05:38] <chavo> I'm about to play in a little while
[05:38] <tophfisher> slavik: Thanks
[05:38] <chavo> yes, it's my favorite game
[05:38] <SAM_theman> chavo, Well you have msn?
[05:38] <harry> I always get the error message: DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER if my DVD-rom or any cd-rom is not connected
[05:38] <chavo> SAM_theman, no
[05:38] <slavik> harry: do you have any OS on your hard drives?
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> harry,  that means theres nothign for it to boot.. sounds like.
[05:39] <SAM_theman> chavo, Because I wanted to play with sombody I know
[05:39] <slavik> harry: do you have the BIOS set to boot from a hard drive?
[05:39] <slavik> Dr_Willis: compaq lied to me
[05:39] <garryfre> intelikey That got rid of the error where i was logged in as garry, with a home directory of /home/garry and having gksudo saying the current logged in user did not own /home/garryfre instead of echoing bob as it should have done.
[05:39] <SAM_theman> chavo, Tell when when your ready ok
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> slavik,  and this is a suprise? :P
[05:39] <harry> yep: the ubuntu breezy badger. i can boot the computer if my hardware CD-rom or DVD-rom is connected
[05:39] <slavik> Dr_Willis: I found a page on how to ahck the BIOS :D
[05:39] <slavik> will do it tomorrow :D
[05:39] <Dr_Willis> slavik,  you leet haxor dood!
[05:39] <harry> slavik: the ubuntu breezy badger. i can boot the computer if my hardware CD-rom or DVD-rom is connected
[05:40] <slavik> my friend will come over with his laptop (he has a later BIOS) and we will extract it from his laptop and hack away
[05:40] <bobby> google earth for linux :D (native)
[05:40] <gr33npho3nix> hmm anyone said anything about the fact that upgrading mozilla forces the removal of enigamail
[05:40] <SAM_theman> chavo, I'll give u the ip I'll be in ok ? or your choice?
[05:40] <intelikey> garryfre yep   cli is your linux friend for life.
[05:40] <mngrif> with 6.06, is there anyway to get a text-mode installer?
[05:40] <slavik> harry: but not otherwise?
[05:40] <harry> slavik: but if i connect my CD-rom or DVD-rom i dont get such errors.
[05:40] <intelikey> !cli
[05:40] <ubotu> CLI means Command Line Interface, aka the terminal or console. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands or http://www.linuxcommand.org/ or http://www.tuxfiles.org
[05:40] <tonyyarusso> bobby: I wouldn't say native.  It's running with wine internally.
[05:40] <chavo> SAM_theman, alright
[05:40] <slavik> harry: that is weird
[05:40] <crimsun_> gr33npho3nix: it's known due to the security update. When the mirrors sync, it'll be available.
[05:40] <bobby> mngrif, download the alternative iso
[05:40] <mngrif> this livecd crap isn't cutting it
[05:40] <slavik> harry: I had something similar at work today
[05:40] <harry> slavik: yes indeed
[05:40] <gr33npho3nix> crimsun_: thanks
[05:40] <bobby> tonyyarusso, no it isn't, it's qt/opengl based
[05:40] <slavik> mngrif: no it isn't
[05:40] <mngrif> bobby, you've got to be kidding me...
[05:40] <gr33npho3nix> for the time being i installed it by hand
[05:41] <bobby> Google Earth for Linux... (posted 2006-06-12 18:59:25 by icculus):
[05:41] <bobby> Google Earth for GNU/Linux has shipped today. It is a completely native port, using Qt and OpenGL. It does not use Wine or Winelib.
[05:41] <bobby> http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html
[05:41] <harry> i dont know if its the ubuntu itself or my hardware components
[05:41] <mngrif> the 'double click me to install' hangs on the 3rd step
[05:41] <slavik> harry: it's something with the BIOS
[05:41] <tonyyarusso> bobby: rubbish.  They contracted picasa and earth with Codeweavers.
[05:41] <slavik> the BIOS gives you that message
[05:41] <garryfre> Is it possible that you have an entry in fstab or somewhere else that is trying to automount those devices? Possibly gnome is trying to restore a session where you had a cd in the devices when the session was closed.
[05:41] <bobby> tonyyarusso, icculus never lies...I'll find out in eight minutes when I try to install it
[05:41] <garryfre> !tell garryfre about cli
[05:41] <slavik> garryfre: no, that error message is given by the BIOS
[05:42] <chavo> tonyyarusso, google earth is native
[05:42] <amachu> Hi every one,
[05:42] <garryfre> !cli
[05:42] <ubotu> CLI means Command Line Interface, aka the terminal or console. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands or http://www.linuxcommand.org/ or http://www.tuxfiles.org
[05:42] <slavik> mngrif: don't blame the livecd ...
[05:42] <SAM_theman> chavo, Well I am in a server now I have a program to switch between the game and the Desktop so heres the ip (216.240.151.117:2796)
[05:42] <bobby> besides, it would almost have to be native, it is a very high requirement app
[05:42] <harry> slavik: i dont know. maybe not. i tried disabling to boot the cd-rom and its still connected to my computer, i can still boot
[05:42] <amachu> I recently installed Ububtu 6.06..
[05:42] <mngrif> slavik, it would be different if it included a text installer
[05:43] <amachu> I need SCIM to work with Open office
[05:43] <lightstar> bobby, i tried google earth for linux..its pretty laggy
[05:43] <SAM_theman> chavo, And my name is Linux_Boy (with the colors)
[05:43] <mngrif> slavik, it would also be different if the website told you the differences
[05:43] <intelikey> harry BIOS is spewing out the error message and probably because the mbr is not 'right'  or no disk detected by the bios or improper hd pramaters in bios
[05:43] <amachu> I need SCIM to work with Open office
[05:43] <harry> slavik: i tried to to disable it again, and tried not my DVDrom not connected to my computer and now i cant boot
[05:43] <amachu> how do i?
[05:43] <bobby> mmm, will want to try it at home where I have a decent graphics card
[05:43] <amachu> can some one help
[05:43] <bobby> they should have based it on gtk instead of qt but thats okay
[05:43] <amachu> hello!!
[05:44] <harry> intelikey: what do you, that's to hard for me to understand. too tough, can you explain it
[05:44] <chavo> it runs awesome here on a 6600GT
[05:45] <bobby> yeah thats what I got at home
[05:45] <lib8264q> hell all :)
[05:45] <bobby> this box has some dodgy ati card in it
[05:45] <SAM_theman> I have a 6600GT card to
[05:45] <lib8264q> sorry ...
[05:45] <bobby> not even sure if opengl is overly supported
[05:45] <SAM_theman> Its alsome on every OS
[05:45] <lib8264q> should have been hello :)
[05:45] <eclypse> hi all
[05:45] <Winkie_> has anyone figured out how to get their USB drives correctly displayed on the desktop? I really want them as '257 gig volume' instead of 'usbdisk' :(
[05:45] <eclypse> that x includes problem persists!
[05:45] <oni-dracula> has anyone tested cedega on a fresh install of ubuntu 6.06?
[05:46] <eclypse> when I try to do ./configure in a theme package
[05:46] <slavik> harry, it might mean that the MBR is messed up. the MBR is the initial part of an HDD which contains the code to boot an operating system
[05:46] <eclypse> it gives me the X Includes error...
[05:46] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  it works.. but it wants xlibs.. thats fixable.
[05:46] <bobby> oni-dracula, I believe it works fine
[05:46] <lib8264q> cam someone help with a slight problem ...
[05:46] <oni-dracula> eh...I never encountered the xlibs error
[05:46] <bobby> two mates are running WoW fine on it
[05:46] <Luciano> hello! someone know a way to join all the xUbuntus (ubuntu, kubuntu, edubuntu and xubuntu) in one DVD (live)?
[05:46] <oni-dracula> I'm having a problem with it saying OpenGL failed testing
[05:46] <lib8264q> iv de installed totem ... and installed totem-xine
[05:46] <bobby> yeah I've never heard of an xlibs error either? and one of them is to newbish to work around an error like that
[05:47] <oni-dracula> haven't tested a game yet...still trying to install WoW
[05:47] <bobby> oni-dracula, yeah it's opengl testing method is crap
[05:47] <bobby> assume that the games will work
[05:47] <oni-dracula> kay
[05:47] <bobby> what you really need to test is     glx-info|grep direct
[05:47] <slavik> Luciano: good idea ... but I guess it would involve having all the Live CDs on the DVD and a custom grub configuration ...
[05:47] <eclypse> so
[05:47] <bobby> and if that comes back with yes then you can play games :D
[05:47] <eclypse> does anyone have any idea?
[05:47] <intelikey> harry, i'm not sure i can break it down any more than that.      get into the BIOS settings and make sure they are correct for the first hard disk drive.    also you can 'dd if=/dev/hda of=file count=1 && less file     and see if your mbr is blank or not. (but that is probably too indepth for you)     that's where i'd start.
[05:47] <slavik> eclypse: the theme package ...
[05:48] <eclypse> heres the exact error while attempting to do ./configure on the theme package...
[05:48] <eclypse> checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[05:48] <slavik> is it a real package or something you got from gnomelook.org?
[05:48] <lib8264q> but when i click on the icon  its loading and dissapearing again  ... but if i have a dvd or open a song wqith it plays  ???? so why wont it open up on its own
[05:48] <slavik> ahh
[05:48] <slavik> eclypse: you need the X dev packages
[05:48] <ToHellWithGA> !http cache cleaner
[05:48] <ubotu> ToHellWithGA: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:48] <eclypse> what do I search for?
[05:48] <slavik> xorg
[05:48] <eclypse> Adept isant as easy as snaptic
[05:48] <ToHellWithGA> anybody in here know why "http cache cleaner" pops up occasionally?
[05:48] <slavik> and select packages that end in -dev or -headers
[05:48] <intelikey> harry i'll leave you alone so i don't confuse you any more.   ;/
[05:49] <Luciano> slavik, I have contacted the autor of http://www.nautopia.net/archives/es/linux_distribuciones/custom/livecd_collection.php I dont know if can be done with something like that
[05:49] <nelisa> here's me trying to like Ubuntu again
[05:49] <maikol> where can i get the kernel source
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> ToHellWithGA,  you runninh ktorrent  or some other kde apps?
[05:49] <slavik> Luciano: I am sure it can ...
[05:49] <nelisa> how to play a CD??
[05:49] <lib8264q> cam someone help with a slight problem ...
[05:49] <lib8264q> but when i click on the icon  its loading and dissapearing again  ... but if i have a dvd or open a song wqith it plays  ???? so why wont it open up on its own
[05:49] <lib8264q> but when i click on the icon  its loading and dissapearing again  ... but if i have a dvd or open a song wqith it plays  ???? so why wont it open up on its own
[05:49] <ToHellWithGA> Dr_Willis: ktorrent, yes
[05:49] <nelisa> Ubuntu 5.10
[05:49] <slavik> Luciano: it is possible to have a single distro with all 3 desktops and just pick one :D
[05:49] <intelikey> nelisa give it up.   just hate it like i do.  it's much easer to use if you just admit you hate it and go on.
[05:50] <Dr_Willis> ToHellWithGA,  ive seen it pop up every so often as it cleans out its cache I think
[05:50] <nelisa> I don't hate it yet
[05:50] <ToHellWithGA> no way.  an "http cache cleaner" cleans a cache?
[05:50] <intelikey> oh well you will
[05:50] <nelisa> it takes looong time for me to hate something
[05:50] <ColonelPanic001> So far I like Ubuntu.
[05:50] <ToHellWithGA> lol.  thanks Dr_Willis.  at least i know which app is calling it now
[05:50] <wastrel> i like ubuntu
[05:50] <ColonelPanic001> Still getting used to the "don't use root" thing. heh
[05:50] <Luciano> slavik: but the idea is to have a livedvd, where users can test them and "choose" what they like to install
[05:50] <lasindi> Hi all, I've been trying to install Ubuntu on two machines, both with 256 MB of RAM. It appears to freeze when the installer gets to the partitioner. If I do "top" before the installer, I see that the memory is already pretty filled up even before I start. I suspect that it just runs out of memory. Is there any way to have a text-based installer, similar to the one in Breezy, so that it actually works?
[05:50] <ToHellWithGA> i'm going to like ubuntu a little more once qemu is finished setting up
[05:51] <intelikey> gui user every one of ya
[05:51] <Hobbsee> lasindi: yes, it's called the alternate installer
[05:51] <Hobbsee> er, alternate cd
[05:51] <lightstar> lasindi, you need to download alternate
[05:51] <nelisa> but not CD Player, nor Totem would play my French class CD
[05:51] <Okita> ls
[05:51] <slavik> Luciano: you can still give the user a choice
[05:51] <lightstar> ToHellWithGA, are you getting any problems with cpu usage w qemu+kqemu?
[05:51] <lib8264q> iv de installed totem ... and installed totem-xine
[05:51] <lib8264q> cam someone help with a slight problem ...
[05:51] <nelisa> and I need to practice :)
[05:51] <ColonelPanic001> intelikey: I'm primarily a debian user, actually. I like the command line just fine.
[05:51] <lib8264q> but when i click on the icon  its loading and dissapearing again  ... but if i have a dvd or open a song wqith it plays  ???? so why wont it open up on its own
[05:51] <lasindi> Hobbsee: does it produce exactly the same result (i.e. installation at the end) as the regular CD?
[05:52] <Hobbsee> lasindi: yep
[05:52] <Hobbsee> lasindi: it's just like the breezy cds
[05:52] <ToHellWithGA> lightstar: yeah but it's no worse than WINE
[05:52] <lasindi> Excellent, thanks
[05:52] <ppcguy> hey guys. Lookin through the gnome wiki, trying to get programs to auto start on log-in
[05:52] <ToHellWithGA> and it's working fine so far (/me knocks on wood)
[05:52] <slavik> X problem: when I start my laptop, I get the GDM screen. I log in and GNOME loads. Once it's done loading, it just restarts (X). I read that this is a kernel bug and I am not sure how to fix it. Only thing I did was upgrade from 15-21 kernel to the 15-23 kernel. It started doing it since. I have installed Dapper on my friend's laptop and on my work system and it doesn't do it ...
[05:52] <ppcguy> but think I'm just not lookin in the right place? Any ideas?
[05:52] <intelikey> ColonelPanic001 didn't see you praising ubuntu.....
[05:52] <pingveno> I know this is a bit of an odd place to ask, but are there any ftp servers for Ubuntu that broadcast their existance via zeroconf?
[05:52] <ColonelPanic001> 23:50]  <ColonelPanic001> So far I like Ubuntu.
[05:52] <ColonelPanic001> hehe :)
[05:52] <lightstar> ToHellWithGA, mine's consuming almost 100% and i cant find a solution 4 it..havent tried wine in ages though
[05:53] <pingveno> Well, for Linux in general
[05:53] <ToHellWithGA> lightstar: i can't get sony's SonicStage running under WINE for the life of me
[05:53] <ToHellWithGA> i'd rather have qemu ride my processor like a pony than not have it work
[05:53] <lightstar> ToHellWithGA, the last time i tried WINE i couldnt get most stuff working..gave up on it and to qemu...luv it cept 4 the cpu usage
[05:53] <ToHellWithGA> i've been listening to the same few minidiscs for weeks now
[05:54] <intelikey> well i'm going to ditch this unwanted guest.
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> minidisks - aint those like 8-track tapes? :P
[05:54] <ToHellWithGA> Dr_Willis: they're like beta tapes
[05:54] <Luciano> slavik: but making a distro with all the 3 desktops they have to install/uninstall all of them... my idea was to make them test the 3 desktop and choose wich one install, before test the 3 desktops
[05:54] <wastrel> i like a gui uh huh
[05:54] <Hobbsee> Dr_Willis: haha.  i'm pleased to see that someone else actually knows what minidisks are
[05:54] <ToHellWithGA> had they caught on before mp3 had a foothold they'd be fine now
[05:54] <wastrel> minidisks eh
[05:54] <Bratsche> Hello!
[05:55] <ColonelPanic001> Hi.
[05:55] <harry> intelikey: i got this error message
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> Hobbsee,  ive seen them.. and kept wondering why they are still around.. they are like the child-sony-dont-want-to-claim. :P
[05:55] <harry> intelikey: dd: opening `/dev/hda': Permission denied
[05:55] <Bratsche> I'm having trouble booting into xubuntu...
[05:55] <ToHellWithGA> once mp3 was big sony stayed with proprietary compressed audio formats for the MD, effectively killing it except for die-hard fans like myself
[05:55] <harry> intelikey: is this the command: dd if=/dev/hda of=file count=1 && less file
[05:55] <Bratsche> A couple of what I assume are error messages appear after the system attempts to "mount root file system"
[05:56] <Bratsche> (I'm running off the live CD)
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> I think sony was shooting itself in the foot way befor mp3's got popular. :P
[05:56] <mortal5> exit
[05:57] <oni-dracula> people shouldn't +m a 400 person chat room
[05:57] <oni-dracula> that's just wrong
[05:57] <Bratsche> Anyone know how to fix something like that? :P
[05:58] <Bratsche> Apparently
[05:58] <Bratsche> not
[05:59] <wastrel> heh bratsche doesn't know how irc works
[05:59] <oni-dracula> it's ok
[05:59] <oni-dracula> he'll eventually put himself out of our misery by never coming back and killing himself
[05:59] <crimsun_> eh, that's a bit excessive.
[06:00] <Andares> oni-dracula, on Linux?
[06:00] <Andares> o_O
[06:00] <n30n> Oh god i forgot my question
[06:00] <ToHellWithGA> wastrel: i was gonna tell him it did that for me.  and i ran the live CD for about 12 hours of usage then ran out of memory
[06:00] <oni-dracula> yes Andares
[06:00] <n30n> dr_willis: how do you do the star thing.
[06:01] <Agent_bob> guys this is probably a tor proxie but beware   203.101.110.99
[06:01] <ToHellWithGA> 12 hours was plenty to test the newbuntu and know it was worth installing
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> n30n,  to the back of the line! :P
[06:01] <oni-dracula> yes, Dr_Willis
[06:01] <n30n> dr_willis: i remember you.
[06:01] <wastrel> i was going to tell him to boot from cd and try to mount the root fs manually

[06:01] <oni-dracula> how does photobucket consider 873.2 KB (894133 bytes) to be greater than 1MB and therefore needs to be resized
[06:01] <n30n> dr_willis: you helped me with a problem back when i first got badger
[06:02] <ToHellWithGA> n30n: let me teach you something.  type dr_ then hit tab and it should fill the man's name in for you, capitalization and all
[06:02] <bobby> hey nice, google earth includes software emulation for opengl if the graphics driver doesn't support it :P
[06:02] <n30n> toHellWithGA: i know. i like it the other way
[06:03] <Dr_Willis> n30n,   i deny any responsability for any large explosions I may of helped cause. :P
[06:03] <ToHellWithGA> n30n i use the other way on some short nicks like yours, but others i sure do love tab completion
[06:03] <garryfre> It sounds like it's rounding up. /emote tries to change Intelikey's name to intelikey UbuntuHelpHero.
[06:03] <wastrel> nickname tab completion can get annoying in this particular channel
[06:03] <joao> how can I upgrade my fire fox 1.0 to 1.5 in ubuntu??
[06:03] <n30n> ToHellWithGA: yeah.
[06:03] <wastrel> with 800 people there's a high rate of false positives
[06:03] <garryfre> It should auto upgrade.
[06:04] <n30n> ToHellWithGA: With things like Dr_Willis i like to type it out. because i like the name..
[06:04] <Hobbsee> !tell joao about firefox1.5
[06:04] <DevZer0> i spent the whole day today to get my laptops ATI card go get direct rendering enabled on Ubuntu 6.06, and now i switched back the drivers to the ati version and i see "Dual-head configuration is not working with DRI at present" anyone here got direct rendering working for dualhead (ATI Mobility 9000)
[06:04] <n30n> \ a
[06:05] <n30n> whoops. dropped keyboard
[06:05] <fishfillet> exit
[06:05] <wastrel> DevZer0:  ouch that bites
[06:05] <DevZer0> yes :-(
[06:05] <wastrel> DevZer0:  that's why i'm not messing with dri for now :/
[06:05] <Inner|RE> what applications does linux have for webpage designing?
[06:05] <wastrel> there's one that people use
[06:05] <bobby> nvu
[06:06] <DevZer0> Inner|RE, -> vim :-)
[06:06] <bobby> though most linux webpage devs use text editors :P
[06:06] <oni-dracula> installing speech.mpq...................................
[06:06] <bobby> nvu is frontpage/dreamweaver like
[06:06] <oni-dracula> I use notepad and only recently (early this year) have I switched to linux
[06:07] <oni-dracula> anyone that does their own web pages should be 1337 enough to code in text
[06:07] <wastrel> notepad good god
[06:07] <oni-dracula> black and white baby!
[06:07] <wastrel> code in text fine, but there's vim for windows
[06:07] <oni-dracula> can you feel the eye strain?
[06:07] <harry> intelikey: check this out. is this true http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?src=rss&id=1026
[06:07] <DevZer0> how ever, i think i am going to keep the "ati" driver for my X for now since when i use it the xorg cpu utilization is about 3%, when i used fglrx drivers it was always at about 10% :-(
[06:08] <wastrel> DevZer0:  i'm using default ati drivers for now but once i get back into doing 3d stuff i'm going to need fglrx - hopefully the kinks will be worked out by then :p
[06:09] <DevZer0> wastrel, does direct rendering help to prevent the traceses you get when you drag things around ?\
[06:09] <DevZer0> wastrel, i dont know the right terminology to explain it.
[06:09] <wastrel> i dunno, i think some of that has to do with LCD
[06:09] <Cntryboy> I'm about to pull my hair out :(
[06:09] <DevZer0> wastrel, i see.
[06:10] <ToHellWithGA> Inner|RE: i'd definitely give vi a spin
[06:10] <Inner|RE> does vim have a graphical interface?
[06:10] <thechris> Inner|RE: gvim ?
[06:10] <DevZer0> Inner|RE, gvim
[06:10] <wastrel> gvim is sortof graphical
[06:10] <wastrel> i don't care for it

[06:11] <graig> my computer crashed when i tried to compile something :(
[06:11] <Inner|RE> hrm its not in aptitude
[06:11] <slavik> X problem: when I start my laptop, I get the GDM screen. I log in and GNOME loads. Once it's done loading, it just restarts (X). I read that this is a kernel bug and I am not sure how to fix it. Only thing I did was upgrade from 15-21 kernel to the 15-23 kernel. It started doing it since. I have installed Dapper on my friend's laptop and on my work system and it doesn't do it ...
[06:11] <Cntryboy> I'm trying to mount my windows hd.. Now my windows hd has 2 partitions hda1 and hda5<-- (which is storage space)and hda1 is where xp is installed. I got hda5 mounting and working, but for the life of me I can't get hda1 mounted. Does anyone know what my noob ass is doing wrong

[06:13] <graig> i booted off the live cd and installed the chat program.
[06:13] <oni-dracula> WoW will not launch
[06:13] <thechris> Cntryboy: is /media/windows the same place hda5 is mounted to?
[06:13] <oni-dracula> the program executes and terminates within seconds
[06:14] <graig> i cant even use apt-get on it, because it wont let me log in :(
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  run it from the shell? you using wine or cedega?
[06:14] <Cntryboy> I guess so I did the steps found here on a link
[06:14] <oni-dracula> cedega gui
[06:14] <oni-dracula> attempted command line
[06:14] <nosklo> SAM_theman: no, tnx, everything is working here...

[06:14] <domingo> what's command  to quit?
[06:14] <n30n> I am having trouble installing the macromedia plugin for firefox.
[06:14] <nosklo> domingo: quit what?
[06:14] <nosklo> domingo: the chat?
[06:14] <thechris> Cntryboy: you might want to make a dir like /media/winroot and mount hda1 to that location
[06:14] <ColdFyre> DCC SEND "string" 0 0 0
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  the cedega homepage has tips for that game.. i cant recall the tricks i did ti get it working.. i think 'bigexe' was a needed option for one.
[06:14] <SAM_theman> Wow
[06:14] <oni-dracula> ah ok
[06:14] <domingo> computer end
[06:14] <oni-dracula> netsplit
[06:14] <ColdFyre> wow
[06:15] <wastrel> do they still have the autoban bots for that
[06:15] <domingo> computer is down..
[06:15] <wastrel> it wasn't a netsplit it was an irc client exploit
[06:15] <graig> anyone got any suggestions or should i reinstall?
[06:15] <wastrel> !ops
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> oni-dracula,  or just a silly use of the exploit
[06:15] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[06:15] <Hobbsee> nalioth: rob lilo ping
[06:15] <domingo> command is quit???? reboot
[06:15] <Cntryboy> okay so can I type a command to see what drives are actually mounted to /media/windows?
[06:15] <domingo> ?
[06:15] <oni-dracula> or that
[06:15] <ColdFyre> i wont do it again
[06:15] <nosklo> what is DCC SEND "string" 0 0 0
[06:15] <Hobbsee> ColdFyre: needs a kline
[06:15] <Cntryboy> to make sure that is that hda1 isn't in the same area
[06:15] <oni-dracula> mIRC users?
[06:15] <wastrel> nosklo:  don't do that
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> nosklo,  dont say that. :P
[06:15] <nosklo> sorry
[06:15] <nosklo> what does that means?
[06:15] <wastrel> it kills some people's network connections
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> lol
[06:15] <wastrel> it is a bug
[06:15] <nosklo> i didn't know?
[06:15] <ic56> Cntryboy: point your browser to http://ca.geocities.com/ic56@rogers.com/65/diskmounter-latest.txt Page down to "Instructions", and read till the next blank line.  Follow the instructions to save and run the file.  It will setup your /etc/fstab and mountpoints in /media so you can see your NTFS filesystems in Places> Computer.
[06:15] <wastrel> in people's routers
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> its  a exploit/bug that makes some routers mess up
[06:15] <Hobbsee> nalioth: rob lilo ping ColdFyre deserves a kline
[06:15] <oni-dracula> ah routers
[06:15] <oni-dracula> nice
[06:15] <QMario> Is this an attack or a netsplit?
[06:16] <SAM_theman> AMD_XP, lol
[06:16] <Amaranth> attack
[06:16] <Cntryboy> i'm getting scroll lag sorry all the ppl splitting
[06:16] <garryfre> Here is what my line looks like in fstab to mount an ntfs partition with help from the great folks here ...  /dev/hda1 /mnt/Sata1 ntfs uid=1000,umask=000,ro 0 0
[06:16] <QMario> Amaranth, how do you know?
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> i wonder if that works in games as well?
[06:16] <graig> does anyone know how to fix a crashed ubuntu install?
[06:16] <SAM_theman> AMD_XP, I think intel just hit ya
[06:16] <Amaranth> QMario: I saw the exploit being used and banned the person using it.
[06:16] <nosklo> it is a router bug?
[06:16] <n30n> What is going on? did i get banned or something?
[06:16] <ic56> Cntryboy: The script will ask you if you want to enable NTFS write.  Answer no.  If you already tried unsuccessfully to add your Windows filesystems to /etc/fstab , add a -b flag to the script invocation.  I authored this version, so I can help if anything goes wrong.
[06:16] <Hobbsee> n30n: no, there was an exploit
[06:16] <ardy> help how to get into remote ssh, my firestarter is on
[06:16] <Cntryboy> well thats a script right ic56
[06:17] <Cntryboy> I wanna learn how to do it manually
[06:17] <klees> where is the keyboard shortcuts (gnome) kept?
[06:17] <arcraig> wow i'm trying this for the first time and it's actually decent.. it just works
[06:17] <klees> the file configuration
[06:17] <ic56> Cntryboy: ah. ok.  Good for you!
[06:17] <Amaranth> nosklo: Cheap linksys and netgear routers with owners that haven't bothered to update their firmware.
[06:17] <graig> need major help pls.
[06:17] <Cntryboy> I got hda5 fine but hda1 is well being an ass..
[06:17] <oni-dracula> ok why can't I find "big exe" again
[06:18] <Cntryboy> thechris so do u think its not working because i'm trying to mount 2 partions to /windows/media?
[06:18] <QMario> Amaranth, I'm sorry. I didn't know. :(
[06:18] <Cntryboy> is that why I should do /windows/winroot?
[06:18] <spikeb> hmm
[06:18] <ic56> Cntryboy: are hda1 and hda5 the same type (FAT vs NTFS)?
[06:18] <Cntryboy> sorry, im new to linux. Installed it today lol
[06:18] <PyroMithrandir> Cntryboy, you can't mount two partitions to the same place
[06:18] <graig> will the live cd desktop install, let me install without overwriting my home partition?
[06:18] <spikeb> Amaranth: i have one of those and i didnt fall off
[06:18] <spikeb> heh
[06:18] <Cntryboy> both are ntfs ic56
[06:18] <garryfre> I wonder if you have your boot loader on hda1 and its still in use when you hit the fstab?
[06:18] <Amaranth> spikeb: it must have updated firmware
[06:18] <Amaranth> spikeb: or you're connected to chat.freenode.net
[06:18] <Cntryboy> ok thx pyro
[06:18] <Amaranth> which seems to filter that stuff out
[06:19] <Cntryboy> let me try another location
[06:19] <Cntryboy> brb
[06:19] <Cntryboy> thx again
[06:19] <graig> is this the help channel?
[06:19] <crimsun_> graig: /topic
[06:19] <spikeb> Amaranth: yeah it's not that old
[06:19] <noonex> is there a way to stop certain mounted drives from having icons on my desktop?
[06:20] <nalioth> ColdFyre: why are you still here?
[06:20] <thechris> Cntryboy: yes, you will need 1 mountpoint per partition.  if you want to "combine" them, you can look into "unionfs", but that a more advanced topic
[06:20] <graig> crimsun_:  my ubuntu crashed when i canceled a compile operation.
[06:20] <graig> crimsun_: now i cant log in,  but it does boot.
[06:20] <graig> crimsun_: it gives me the message /home/graig not found.
[06:21] <Amaranth> nalioth: He can't talk.
[06:21] <tapox> How do I manually specify monitor resolution?
[06:21] <nalioth> Amaranth: so i noticed
[06:21] <CurtisB> hi! Anyone up for a (probably) dumb shell-scripting question? I'm trying to make a script so my wife can type: playit <keyword> to play a favorite song(s) but this isn't working as I'd have hoped: find /media/hda4/music -print | grep $1 > exec xmms -p -Q {} > /dev/null 2>&1 &
[06:21] <MonkeyINAbaG> heyas, im having problems with the ubuntu server.... i just installed wordpress, which i think uses php5, under the LAMP install of dapper, when i hit the server with a browser, firefox asks me if i want to download the php/phtml files, the server cant seem to process them
[06:21] <garryfre> !resolution
[06:21] <ubotu> hmm... resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:21] <Amaranth> MonkeyINAbaG: Do you have libapache2-mod-php5 installed?
[06:21] <tapox> garryfre: ty
[06:21] <crimsun_> noonex: gconftool-2 -s /apps/nautilus/desktop/volumes_visible --type boolean false
[06:21] <graig> crimsun_: booted off the live cd, and i can see the partitions.  will the desktop cd allow me to install ubuntu, without messing up my /home partition?
[06:22] <garryfre> tapox wc
[06:22] <squidly> graig: is /home on a seperate particions form your system partisions?
[06:22] <crimsun_> noonex: note that's for all mounted volumes
[06:22] <graig> squidly: yes it is.
[06:22] <squidly> graig: then you should be able to
[06:22] <squidly> i konw with edubuntu you can
[06:22] <aero> hi
[06:22] <Amaranth> Time for my nightly windows gaming, back later.
[06:23] <thechris> CurtisB: do you need to escape the {}'s?
[06:23] <wastrel> CurtisB:  try   xargs instead of the  grep > xmms
[06:23] <MonkeyINAbaG> crap
[06:23] <graig> squidly: i wonder if there's a way to fix it, without reinstalling, i hit ctrl-c during a compile, and now i cant even log in, but i have this live cd working.
[06:23] <Cntryboy> mmm gang this is my error msg :(
[06:23] <Cntryboy> mount: /dev/hda1 already mounted or /media/winroot busy
[06:23] <Cntryboy> mount: according to mtab, /dev/hda1 is mounted on /media/windows
[06:23] <MonkeyINAbaG> i do have libapache2-mod-php5 installed
[06:23] <Cntryboy> so its saying its already mounted, but yet its not working
[06:23] <MonkeyINAbaG> can anyone else help me?
[06:23] <Cntryboy> should I unmount it from windows first?
[06:23] <squidly> graig: /msg me the error
[06:23] <ic56> Cntryboy: define "not working"?
[06:23] <noonex> crimsun_: thank you
[06:24] <Cntryboy> I mean I tried to remount hda1 to winroot
[06:24] <oni-dracula> Dr_Willis, I seem to be encountering an issue where I can't find the "big exe" option...I've seen it before!
[06:24] <phlexonance> need help with installing opera
[06:24] <joao> how can I upgrade my fire fox 1.0 to 1.5 in ubuntu?
[06:24] <Cntryboy> and thats the error I got saying its already mounted, but it doesn't show in filesystem and says its not mounted
[06:24] <Flannel> joao: you're on 5.10?
[06:24] <graig> squidly: when i tried to log in on my account, it said /home/graig not found, or something to that effect.
[06:24] <thechris> Cntryboy: you will need to be in another dir.  eg, if you have files open on /media/windows, or if you have a console open and in /media/windows, you will not be able to unmount it
[06:24] <joao> ya
[06:24] <ic56> Cntryboy: like was said before.  You cannot be mounted read-write in two places simultaneously.  So, you have to umount before you can mount elsewhere.
[06:24] <CurtisB> thechris & wastrel -- thanks, I'll be afk checking into that!
[06:24] <thechris> Cntryboy: issue the command "mount"  this will show all mounted systems
[06:25] <squidly> graig: what were you building?
[06:25] <oni-dracula> ugh nevermind
[06:25] <Flannel> joao: well, if you upgrade to 6.06, it comes with 1.5, but if you'd like to just upgrade FF, you can use the link ubotu is sending you
[06:25] <graig> squidly amule
[06:25] <Flannel> !tell joao about ff1.5
[06:25] <squidly> graig: hmm.. that is odd..
[06:25] <steev-dell> are the vpn plugins for NetworkManager not available in Dapper?
[06:25] <Cntryboy> I don't want to unmount /media/windows because hda5 is working fine. I just want to remove the mount for hda1 in /media/windows
[06:25] <Cntryboy> but not to sure how
[06:25] <dylan_> does anybody know if i can run dapper smoothly and successfully (in terms of hardware detection) on a iBook ?
[06:25] <klees> does anyone know what file holds the keyboard shortcuts?
[06:25] <squidly> graig: can you see your /home in the live cd? and does it have stuff on it.
[06:25] <squidly> what about logging in as root?
[06:25] <graig> squidly: what i did exactly, was i downloaded the amule source, ./configured it.  then i forgot to type make and i typed  sudo checkinstall
[06:25] <ic56> Cntryboy: umount /dev/hda1
[06:25] <thechris> Cntryboy: is hda1 and hda5 mounted right now?  use "mount" to find out
[06:26] <Cntryboy> ./dev/hda1 on /media/windows type ntfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,fmask=0111,dmask=0000)
[06:26] <graig> squidly: havent tried mounting it.

[06:26] <graig> ok.
[06:26] <dylan_> Flannel, thank you
[06:26] <ic56> Cntryboy: umount /dev/hda1
[06:26] <squidly> i bet the sudo check install might have messed up something
[06:26] <Cntryboy> okday thx
[06:26] <Cntryboy> brb
[06:26] <graig> squidly: i bet so hehe :)
[06:26] <phlexonance> need help with installing opera
[06:26] <thechris> Cntryboy: umount /dev/hda1 ;  if this fails, you will need to find what is "using" /dev/hda1
[06:27] <Cntryboy> grr
[06:27] <squidly> that is why you must be carefull with sudo :D
[06:27] <Cntryboy> umount: /dev/hda1 mount disagrees with the fstab
[06:27] <garryfre> I hope that those two aren't mounted to the same mount point of /media/windows for it's not a good idea because one could have issues with files and directories with same names.
[06:27] <squidly> its about as dangerus as using root to everyday activities
[06:27] <nameless14> what do you put in stab to make it do the same as     mount --bind /tree/dir1 /tree/dir2   I just need it to do that type of mounting each time ubuntu boots up. Its hard to find info on google for this, anyone know how?
[06:27] <thechris> Cntryboy: oh, umount /media/windows
[06:27] <Cntryboy> my hair is falling out lol
[06:28] <graig> squidly: how do i mount it?
[06:28] <Cntryboy> if I umount /media/windows my hda5 will be unmounted to though right?
[06:28] <garryfre> Use remount hair -now
[06:28] <Cntryboy> lol garry
[06:28] <graig> lol.
[06:28] <thechris> Cntryboy: really if you have fstab correct you _can_ just reboot and it will work.  it beats pulling out hair
[06:28] <squidly> graig: mount -t $FILESYSTEM /dev/hda(1-8) /mnt/
[06:28] <squidly> lol garryfre
[06:28] <oni-dracula> ok what the fark...why am I getting a point2play error in cedega... I don't have point2play installed! argh!
[06:28] <squidly> if your /home is on your fist ide hard drive
[06:29] <phlexonance> when trying to install opera with the .deb, it tells me i need xlib6g or xlibs, but I cant get those with apt-get install
[06:29] <lilo> looked like maybe Patrick McFarland, but hard to tell
[06:29] <ic56> thechris: you have made a big mess.  We can spend hours trying to walk you through how to fix.  If your object is to learn, rather than to get it working, why not read the manuals?  Read the following manpages: mount, umount, fstab
[06:29] <lilo> oops
[06:29] <graig> squidly: it is, and its the um, ext3
[06:29] <ic56> Cntryboy: you have made a big mess.  We can spend hours trying to walk you through how to fix.  If your object is to learn, rather than to get it working, why not read the manuals?  Read the following manpages: mount, umount, fstab
[06:29] <Cntryboy> so if I umount /media/windows this will unmount both, but it will allow me to remount hda5 and then I can always remount the /media/windows correct?
[06:29] <lilo> oops, please ignore, wrong window
[06:29] <ic56> Sorry about the thechris
[06:29] <squidly> hey lilo
[06:29] <squidly> graig: ahh lol
[06:29] <lilo> hey squidly
[06:29] <squidly> whats up?
[06:29] <ic56> Cntryboy: no, it won't umount them both.
[06:29] <graig> ill be crying if i lost 70 gigs lol.
[06:30] <gaydongs> DCC SEND WHOLETTHEDOGSOUT
[06:30] <squidly> graig: on mount -t ext3 /dev/hda(partision of home) /mnt
[06:30] <SAM_theman> Yes the Miami HEat Finally Wow Game 3
[06:30] <Cntryboy> lol I just want to unmount hda1 from /windows/media where I can remount it to /media/winroot lol
[06:30] <Hobbsee> lilo: ping.
[06:30] <SAM_theman> 98 to 96
[06:30] <Cntryboy> thats all :)
[06:30] <squidly> well shit on me
[06:30] <thechris> Cntryboy: just keep umounting /media/windows.  once it no longer shows up in "mount", make sure fstab is correct, and mount /media/windows
[06:30] <wastrel> used to be ubotu would auto k-line ppl doing that
[06:30] <wastrel> !ops
[06:30] <Flannel> wastrel: ubotu got overzealous
[06:30] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[06:30] <Hobbsee> wastrel: we know
[06:30] <lilo> wastrel: ubotu probably isn't set up to do it
[06:30] <Flannel> wastrel: and, he's already gone
[06:31] <QMario> Wastrel, what happened to ubotu?
[06:31] <lilo> wastrel: but I just klined
[06:31] <Cntryboy> okay i'll unmount it then remount hda1 to /media/winroot
[06:31] <wastrel> nvm
[06:31] <Hobbsee> lilo: ubugtu is, i just op'd it again
[06:31] <CurtisB> in the 6.06 distro's is the "alternate" ISO for the livecd? if not, is there a torrent for the i386 livecd?
[06:31] <Cntryboy> since I can't have both mounted to /media/windows
[06:31] <Cntryboy> this is hard stuff I tell ya lol
[06:31] <phlexonance> when trying to install opera with the .deb, it tells me i need xlib6g or xlibs, but I cant get those with apt-get install
[06:31] <lilo> Hobbsee: to kline or to kickban?
[06:31] <Cntryboy> brb
[06:31] <nalioth> wastrel: yes i got it
[06:31] <Hobbsee> lilo: kickban, iirc
[06:31] <squidly> god I just love idiots like that
[06:31] <Flannel> CurtisB: the "desktop" is the liveCD.  the Alternate is the textmode installer
[06:31] <klees> desktop = livecd
[06:31] <Hobbsee> squidly: haha yeah - this hasnt happened in ages
[06:31] <lilo> Hobbsee: well, I klined, hopefully that will help
[06:31] <garryfre> Just use a separate mount point that you pre-create
[06:31] <Hobbsee> lilo: yay, thanks :)
[06:31] <Flannel> Hobbsee: it happened yesterday ;)
[06:31] <squidly> lilo ftw!
[06:31] <squidly> :D
[06:31] <CurtisB> Flannel - ahh, okay, thanks!
[06:32] <lilo> it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere, and unfortunately some folks are bored and childish
[06:32] <Cntryboy> that didn't work either lol...error umount: it seems /media/windows is mounted multiple times
[06:32] <ic56> Cntryboy: you have already made a good dozen mistakes in your config from what I can tell.  If you want to learn, read the manual.  If you want it working quickly, run the script.
[06:32] <squidly> lilo: and school is out.. skidiots are all around
[06:32] <wastrel> ah yes.
[06:32] <graig> squidly: when i try to mount hda2 it says, wrong fs type bad option, bad superblock.  scary
[06:32] <Cntryboy> well my config in fstab is right, but I didn't know u couldn't mount 2 part. to one directory lol
[06:32] <oni-dracula> any cedega experts out there?
[06:32] <ic56> Cntryboy: your fstab is completely wrong
[06:32] <wastrel> i was wondering why we started seeing these again
[06:32] <garryfre> Hmm, what file system is it?
[06:32] <squidly> so hda2 is your home partision graig ?
[06:33] <squidly> try fsck /dev/hda2
[06:33] <Cntryboy> I changed fstab though for hda1 to /media/winroot now I gotta unmount it from /media/windows and remount it to /media/winroot
[06:33] <graig> squidly: oh, ok, no its not, it's hda6
[06:33] <Hobbsee> Flannel: darn.
[06:33] <nalioth> lilo: does your screen highlight when your nick is used?
[06:33] <steev-dell> how do i get info about a package that isn't installed yet? (as in, I want to install it, but i want to know what version it will install)
[06:33] <lilo> nalioth: not very successfully
[06:33] <phlexonance> when trying to install opera with the .deb, it tells me i need xlib6g or xlibs, but I cant get those with apt-get install, please help....anyone?
[06:33] <squidly> ahh well then.. lol
[06:33] <squidly> lol
[06:33] <heyHowsITgoin> i am using JACK and routing all of my apps to it with OSS2JACK and when im micing on skype after about a minute or so JACK just dies and i have to restart it
[06:33] <nalioth> lilo: may i suggest a channel scan?
[06:33] <graig> squidly: ok, it mounted :)
[06:33] <squidly> lilo: nalioth lol
[06:33] <squidly> graig: now was is there?
[06:33] <squidly> your /home stuff?
[06:33] <lilo> nalioth: in theory it should be doing it, but I don't have a good script to do something useful with it
[06:33] <Cntryboy> let me use sudo
[06:33] <graig> squidly: i see the home directories.
[06:33] <Cntryboy> doubt that works but let me try
[06:34] <heyHowsITgoin> has anyone else experienced these problems also?
[06:34] <squidly> ok graig try botting up to your normal install and login as root
[06:34] -lilo:#ubuntu- HI ALL. IF YOU GOT CAUGHT BY THAT EXPLOIT, PLEASE RECONNECT ON PORT 8001. THANK YOU.
[06:34] <graig> squidly: what do you mean botting?
[06:34] <lilo> port 8001 is not checked
[06:34] <nalioth> graig: he meant "boot up"
[06:34] <wastrel> lilo is optimistic about people's understanding of IRC
[06:35] <lilo> wastrel: it never hurts to try
[06:35] <wastrel> heh
[06:35] <lilo> wastrel: some people will understand
[06:35] <wastrel> yes :] 
[06:35] <squidly> booting sorry going thew 3 networks to my home server then back out to freenode wheil my wilfe is using ffxi can make a bit of lag
[06:35] <graig> squidly: er, when i tried booting up, it wouldn't let me log in with my user account, and thats the only account with sudo powers.
[06:35] <squidly> graig: what about root?
[06:35] <squidly> you should had a root account you can login to
[06:35] <graig> squidly: there's a root account?
[06:35] <squidly> yes
[06:35] <squidly> system master
[06:36] <nalioth> squidly: there is no root account
[06:36] <graig> squidly: ok,  is it called root? or system master?
[06:36] <squidly> bow before m3 4 i r r00t
[06:36] <squidly> nalioth: wtf?
[06:36] <squidly> no root?
[06:36] <nalioth> squidly: please read the wiki before offering blind advice
[06:36] <nalioth> !root
[06:36] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[06:36] <thechris> don't you have to sudo su - passwd
[06:36] <blind> no one offered me advice, nalioth :P
[06:36] <nalioth> thechris: that is incorrect, also
[06:36] <acidjedi> How would I go about accessing a new partition?
[06:36] <thechris> nalioth: didn't it used to work?
[06:36] <Cntryboy> dang I don't know how to unmount hda1 from /media/windows
[06:37] <squidly> nalioth: sorry I was going with what I knew to get him his system back. sorry I though ubunto had root
[06:37] <nalioth> thechris: it will always work, but it breaks things and is redundant.  sudo -i is the more desirable way to accomplish the same thing
[06:37] <Cntryboy> or i could remount it to media/winroot
[06:37] <thechris> Cntryboy: sudo umount /media/windows
[06:37] <graig> squidly: so i guess i have to reinstall it.
[06:37] <wastrel> acidjedi:  do you have a filesystem on the new partition already?
[06:37] <Cntryboy> i tried that thechris
[06:37] <graig> im afraid of this new installer, but i guess ill try it,
[06:37] <acidjedi> wastrel: yes, it is fat32
[06:37] <Cntryboy> but when I go to sudo mount -a
[06:37] <squidly> graig: it looks like it.
[06:37] <m1ke_l> hi...where is the smp kernel in ubuntu?
[06:37] <Cntryboy> it says hda1 is still mounted to /media/windows
[06:37] <thechris> Cntryboy: reboot.  that will almost certainly fix it.
[06:37] <graig> well at least i can chat while i install lol.
[06:38] <Cntryboy> okay brb
[06:38] <squidly> lol
[06:38] <wastrel> acidjedi:  you can use the mount command to access it.
[06:38] <wastrel> !tell acidjedi about mountwindows
[06:38] <squidly> well I cant ive gotta run home
[06:38] <squidly> later all
[06:38] <QMario> Uh-oh.... I feel another one coming soon. :'(
[06:38] <acidjedi> thanks
[06:38] <acidjedi> wastrel: It doesn't have windows on it though
[06:39] <oni-dracula> ok WhAt?
[06:39] <graig> ok. the partitioner started.
[06:39] <graig> going to have to manually do it.
[06:39] <oni-dracula> why is the command line throwing an error that refers to a line in a file BUT THE LINE DOESN'T EXIST!
[06:39] <smacky_wolf> Hi all. I was wondering if someone could tell me how to s1ee what is using my sound evice, and when I find out what, how to kjill it. I can't get any sound output from ALSA or OSS, because I receiver the error "This Device Is Already In Use"
[06:39] <wastrel> acidjedi:  yeah it's just the keyword :] 
[06:39] <oni-dracula> the last line is line 2672 and it refers to line 2979
[06:39] <acidjedi> ok
[06:39] <thechris> oni-dracula: it may have to do with autogenerated files or such
[06:40] <acidjedi> Do I have to add anything to fstab? I already did, but I can change that
[06:40] <graig> is this partition editor non destructive?
[06:40] <Samuli^> what is cool is that now that I replaced metacity as window manager with enlightenment 17 BOTH kde and gnome-apps look equally good.
[06:40] <ic56> thechris: Cntryboy's problem is he mounted two FSs on the same mountpoint *and* his fstab doesn't match his real world.  The right way to umount would have been to umount using the device name and in the reverse order from how the mounting was done.  (try both orders -- see which works).  This is because the 2nd mount isn't on the original mount point but on the root directory of the 1st mount.  Of course, walking a newbie
[06:40] <thechris> oni-dracula: or if the app concats two files and tells you the error on the line of the combined file
[06:40] <oni-dracula> ok so I'm missing a gddb file
[06:40] <acidjedi> wastrel: It didn't find any usable windows partitions
[06:40] <oni-dracula> which is stupid...most retarded implementation in cedega
[06:41] <heyHowsITgoin> i am using JACK and routing all of my apps to it with OSS2JACK and when im micing on skype after about a minute or so JACK just dies and i have to restart it
[06:41] <graig> hmm. i got to the partition editor, in the installer, and it says it cant read the first partition?
[06:41] <wastrel> ah that diskmounter thing - they changed the message
[06:41] <m1ke_l> where is the smp kernel in ubuntu?
[06:41] <cd__> okay back
[06:41] <wastrel> acidjedi:  i was actually directing you to the nice wiki page that will help you set up your fstab
[06:41] <Cntryboy> i wish my ./save for bitchx would actually save lol
[06:41] <ic56> thechris: once he's umounted, Cntryboy will have more problems.  He's got NTFS mounted read-write, so he'll end up with a corrupt filesystem.  He's using the user option for something that is clearly a fixed filesystem, etc
[06:41] <thechris> ic56: yeah, well, its easier to tell him to fix the fstab and reboot.  now that he knows the issue, he'll avoid doing it, so he'd never have to solve it again
[06:41] <intelikey> m1ke_l all dapper
[06:41] <pd273> m1ke_l: the 686 kernel in dapper has smp
[06:41] <Cntryboy> thechris rebooting worked
[06:42] <Cntryboy> shows both now lol
[06:42] <Cntryboy> :) yay
[06:42] <acidjedi> ok, lol, thanks
[06:42] <m1ke_l> not for me
[06:42] <ic56> thechris: I agree
[06:42] <pd273> I tried it on a Intel Duo core
[06:42] <m1ke_l> cat /proc/cpu only lists 1 still
[06:42] <intelikey> m1ke_l uname -r
[06:42] <thechris> ic56: no, i'm pretty sure the kernel mods don't allow write actions even if you mount it rw.
[06:42] <Cntryboy> thx ya'll
[06:42] <Cntryboy> atleast I know i can't mount to part to same location
[06:42] <m1ke_l> 2.6.15-23-386
[06:42] <Cntryboy> two partitions rather
[06:42] <pd273> m1ke_l: install this linux-image-2.6.15-23-686 and you will get smp support
[06:43] <Luciano> it is a good idea? --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196271
[06:43] <thechris> ic56: yeah, as for the user part, thats definately not needed.
[06:43] <m1ke_l> i did that...cat /proc/cpuinfo lists only 1
[06:43] <ic56> Cntryboy: you *can* mount two partitions to the same location -- but it doesn't do what you think.
[06:43] <Cntryboy> thechris ya did hear me when i said it worked by rebooting right?
[06:43] <intelikey> m1ke_l 386 arch.....  i mean all i686 dapper kernels are smp enabled.
[06:43] <thechris> Cntryboy: yeah.
[06:43] <graig> question about the installer, if i don't have it format my / partition, will it attempt to repair it? or not?
[06:43] <pd273> m1ke_l: you have to reboot with the new 686 kernel
[06:43] <pd273> only then it will  be activated
[06:44] <Cntryboy> now my next quest is getting this printer to work so I can print off pages I need in the future
[06:44] <m1ke_l> roger...brb
[06:44] <thechris> Cntryboy: can you see the printer
[06:44] <Cntryboy> any pages to read for that
[06:44] <thechris> Cntryboy: visually i mean.  like read the numbers on the front?
[06:44] <Cntryboy> thechris im not sure of the command remember I installed this today then read bitchx and installed that so I can chat lol
[06:45] <Cntryboy> oh yeah
[06:45] <thechris> Cntryboy: gnome has a great CUPS util.  if you know the name of the printer, you should be set
[06:45] <Cntryboy> hp deskjet 820se
[06:45] <Cntryboy> i do thechris
[06:46] <graig> WTF it failed to create the file system??
[06:46] <graig> can mounting things mess up the installer?
[06:46] <Cntryboy> when I type your id does it highlight it?
[06:46] <thechris> Cntryboy: i'm not in gnome atm, but you should be able to find a "Printers" icon somewhere.
[06:46] <intelikey> graig yeah
[06:46] <Cntryboy> thechris does it show it highlighted?
[06:46] <graig> ok, ill reboot and try again.
[06:46] <wastrel> printers is system->administration->printing
[06:46] <graig> be back later.
[06:46] <Cntryboy> let me look
[06:46] <thechris> graig: if a partition is mounted, it can't make a fs until you umount it
[06:47] <Cntryboy> brb
[06:48] <smacky_wolf> Hi all. I was wondering if someone could tell me how to s1ee what is using my sound evice, and when I find out what, how to kjill it. I can't get any sound output from ALSA or OSS, because I receiver the error "This Device Is Already In Use"
[06:49] <pd273> smacky_wolf: that is a nice question, even I had this question in my mind for  long time
[06:49] <wastrel> smacky_wolf:  try lsof /dev/dsp
[06:49] <intelikey> lsof with a grep pipe and kjill `pidof blah`
[06:50] <wastrel> lsof  of what intelikey ?
[06:50] <pd273> lsof is not working
[06:50] <intelikey> lsof | grep alsa
[06:50] <pd273> lsof | grep alsa -> thats working :)
[06:50] <Cntryboy> okay went to printing and it found deskjet 820C and mines 820Cse so i clicked it anways and hit forward then it took me to a list? and had deskjet highlighted should I leave that or find deskjet 820C again in the list?
[06:50] <cornellius> So
[06:51] <cornellius> Tried XFCE 4
[06:51] <intelikey> prolly.... not sure dsp is in use without sound comming out.....
[06:51] <cornellius> And told myself
[06:51] <cornellius> XCFE4 = Gnome
[06:51] <Fr0Gs> hey all
[06:51] <cornellius> Well, almost
[06:51] <intelikey> xfce4 > 'nome
[06:51] <intelikey> :)
[06:51] <cornellius> heh, depends on the days
[06:51] <cornellius> I usually use KDE though
[06:52] <thechris> its so nice that i can set up kde to look like xfce though
[06:52] <cornellius> XCFE, KDE, Gnome are the three WM I use the most
[06:52] <intelikey> of late i've been just using X  with an xterm
[06:52] <pd273> I too like KDE
[06:53] <cornellius> intelikey: cplay, irssi, rtorrent, etc :)
[06:53] <intelikey> k's kewl but big.
[06:53] <pd273> yeah its too big
[06:53] <Cntryboy> thechris did ya read what I said up top bro?
[06:53] <Cntryboy> nm i ask to many questions
[06:53] <cornellius> KDE is for a Windows look-like
[06:53] <Cntryboy> let me pick what I think lol..
[06:53] <pd273> on my older hardware gnome works faster
[06:53] <cornellius> Gnome is for eye-candy
[06:53] <thechris> Cntryboy: should be fine.  most of the printers will use the same module anyways
[06:53] <steev-dell> eyecandy ftw
[06:53] <cornellius> No diff. in speed on my P4
[06:53] <pd273> I would not say KDE has windows looks
[06:54] <pd273> may be the layouts were like windows
[06:54] <intelikey> cornellius only if you use it defaulto    it can look like anything. including 'nome
[06:54] <thechris> pd273: you can change that
[06:54] <CurtisB> okay, back to the shell-script to let my wife play music.. it works -- mostly -- although I can't seem to get xmms to clear it's playlist, but anyway this works other than that::: find /media/hda4/music -print | grep $1 | grep ogg | xargs xmms -p -f -Q > /dev/null 2>&1 &
[06:54] <pd273> thechris: how ?
[06:54] <cornellius> :) amaroK
[06:54] <thechris> pd273: http://gentoo-wiki.com/Image:KDE-xfce.gif
[06:55] <pd273> thanks thechris
[06:55] <thechris> pd273: http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_KDE_look_like_XFCE
[06:55] <Cntryboy> printing now lets see if it works :)
[06:55] <thechris> its a kde thing and has no real dependence on gentoo
[06:55] <cornellius> yeah, did that
[06:55] <sn00p> does anybody know how I can fix this ./rocknes: error while loading shared libraries: liballeg-3.9.34.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[06:55] <sn00p> ?
[06:55] <cornellius> KDE to look like Xfce I mean
[06:56] <cornellius> sn00p: Using Open GL as a filter ?
[06:56] <sn00p> cornellius no its for a nes emulator
[06:56] <cornellius> I know
[06:56] <cornellius> But for the display, which filter do you use ?
[06:56] <intelikey> CurtisB duh... find /media/hda4/music -name "*.ogg" -exec xmms -pfQ {} > /dev/null 2>&1 \;
[06:57] <sn00p> none it worked before
[06:57] <sn00p> now it doesn't
[06:57] <cornellius> sn00p: I dunno then, I use Fakenes or FCEU myself
[06:57] <Cntryboy> Ut oh guys watch out oh cntryboy has graduated from stupid noob to lame noob
[06:57] <Cntryboy> lol
[06:58] <wastrel> sn00p:  install liballegro
[06:58] <NiklasH_work> hi, does anyone know what has happened to the enigmail extension for thunderbird? It seems to have disappeared since the last upgrade
[06:58] <thechris> Cntryboy: i assume printing works?
[06:58] <mitrovarr> Is there anything you need to do to the latest version of ubuntu to make it work with gameport joysticks?
[06:58] <intelikey> CurtisB oh,  i missed the second pipe.  but you get the idea. find can do it without piping unless you are a plumber....
[06:58] <Cntryboy> thechris yuppers :)
[06:58] <sn00p> wastrel it cant find it
[06:59] <Cntryboy> I bet ya don't even wanna hear my next quest huh lol
[06:59] <acidjedi> wastrel: Thank you, it worked
[06:59] <thechris> Cntryboy: what is it?
[06:59] <mitrovarr> I have a sidewinder FF which doesn't work, which is astounding because it's worked automatically in every distro I've tried for years.
[06:59] <intelikey> CurtisB --->  find /media/hda4/music -name "*$1*.ogg" -exec xmms -pfQ {} > /dev/null 2>&1 \;     <---- there.
[07:00] <Cntryboy> I want to be able to manually adjust a slider to brighten up desktop,images ect..

[07:01] <faki1> for some reason I'm not able to get it working dapper
[07:01] <smacky_wolf> Wastrel: Thanks. <3 Firefox was eating mysound deviuec.
[07:01] <toolazytogoogle> hiya...how do you add an existing user to an existing goup by command line?
[07:01] <faki1> when trying to connect I get a 425 error and it's driving me nutz
[07:02] <thechris> Cntryboy: what video card?
[07:02] <CurtisB> intelikey - that's handy... less pipes is nice, but still xmms isn't clearing the playlist, even though it has "-e" to "enque but not clear the playlist" and "-Q" to "add the file(s) to the playlist"... they seem to operate the same to me
[07:02] <sn00p> wastrel i installed it but it still says i'm missing it
[07:02] <Cntryboy> old ass one lol
[07:02] <faki1> I able to connect locally but not remotely, just as a test I put the server on the dmz and still no luck
[07:02] <Cntryboy> geforce 2
[07:02] <ome> I'm having a problem in Ubuntu. When i install programs that are more then one disc, I cant eject the disc to swap discs.
[07:02] <Cntryboy> not upgrading until I get off this country hick dialup at 2.1KB lol
[07:03] <wastrel> sn00p:  maybe version mismatch.
[07:03] <mitrovarr> ome:  you installing UT2004?
[07:03] <toolazytogoogle> fakil: Tcpdumps are your friend ...
[07:03] <thechris> Cntryboy: there are settings for this.  not sure exactly where.  i know nvidia-settings works for GF4 and higher
[07:03] <ome> hahaha yah
[07:03] <sn00p> wastrel how do I fix it?
[07:03] <intelikey> CurtisB i don't use xmms  you should man  it and make sure that Q is not /null'ing e
[07:03] <Witigonen> What do I have to do to allow a user to ssh/sftp in?
[07:03] <mitrovarr> ome:  there's a trick for it... I don't remember it personally but it's online.  You have to shut down supermount and manually mount/dismount the disks.
[07:03] <Sir_Brizz> ome: copy the installer script to your home directory first
[07:03] <wastrel> sn00p:  install the version of the library that it wants or compile against the version you've got
[07:03] <mitrovarr> I think you do anyway.  You used to have to do that.
[07:04] <Sir_Brizz> ome: that's 9/10 why you can't open the drive
[07:04] <thechris> Cntryboy: there may even be a tool in gnome for this.
[07:04] <polpak> Witigonen: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[07:04] <intelikey> CurtisB some args that blank things and args that add things to the "supposedly blanked" thing  don't work togather
[07:04] <Sir_Brizz> ome, you also might have to manually eject it
[07:04] <mitrovarr> BTW with UT2004 you CANNOT start the game if you set the resolution higher than your desktop res.  It will silently fail.  That will save you a *lot* of headaches later on.
[07:04] <ome> ok so just copy install script to home then start over?
[07:04] <Cntryboy> I looked but I didn't see one thechris
[07:04] <Sir_Brizz> ome: yah
[07:04] <ome> should i run it from home?
[07:04] <polpak> ome: yes
[07:04] <Witigonen> polpak, already done.  One user, my main user, can login but a newly created one cannot.
[07:04] <Sir_Brizz> ome, sure
[07:05] <wastrel> CurtisB:  you want xmms to clear the playlist?
[07:05] <ome> thanks you guys are great
[07:05] <mitrovarr> if you do set the resolution higher than desktop and it won't start just change your desktop res to let it run and it'll let you into the settings
[07:05] <Cntryboy> they are aren't they ome
[07:05] <polpak> Witigonen:  what shell did you give them?
[07:05] <mitrovarr> so, anyone here used a gameport joystick in ubuntu?
[07:05] <Sir_Brizz> mitrovarr, you can alwaus just edit the ini by hand :)
[07:05] <polpak> Witigonen: and did you try sshing to their account locally?
[07:06] <mitrovarr> Sir_Brizz:  for the joystick thing or the UT2004 thing?
[07:06] <phrowzen> CurtisB, what is it your trying to do?
[07:06] <Witigonen> polpak, /etc/passwd reports /bin/bash and yes, I can't even ssh from the main computer.
[07:06] <awesometaylor> hey guys, can the i386 install cd work on amd64?
[07:06] <Sir_Brizz> mitrovarr, ut2k4 :)
[07:06] <intelikey> CurtisB hehhe but i'm a plumber myself.  pipes don't bother me.   cat << `echo boo | cat | more | man | less `
[07:06] <DShepherd> they are, arent they
[07:06] <polpak> Witigonen: but you can ssh to your account?
[07:06] <wastrel> CurtisB:  -e in my  man xmms  says "don't clear the playlist"
[07:06] <polpak> Witigonen: that doesn't make sense
[07:06] <mitrovarr> Sir_Brizz:  Ah... I was hoping someone would tell me something about gameports.  Ubuntu 6 doesn't work with my joystick, which is amazing since it's worked flawlessly in every linux distro I've tried since Mandrake 7.
[07:06] <DShepherd> ome: they are, arent they
[07:06] <CurtisB> wastrel - yes, trying to make a shell-script so my wife can use xmms by keyword, and have it clear the playlist when it adds a new selection
[07:07] <Witigonen> polpak, yep.
[07:07] <mitrovarr> I don't even have any js devices
[07:07] <Sir_Brizz> mitrovarr, did you try running the 2.6.12 kernel again? I've had some problems with legacy drivers in 2.6.15
[07:07] <polpak> Witigonen: does it give you a password prompt? or an error? or what?
[07:07] <intelikey> CurtisB <wastrel> CurtisB:  -e in my  man xmms  says "don't clear the playlist"
[07:07] <CurtisB> wastrel - find /media/hda4/music -name "*$1*.ogg" -exec xmms -pfQ {} > /dev/null 2>&1 \; is what intelikey suggested
[07:07] <mitrovarr> Sir_Brizz:  No but I will.  But I think I might have uninstalled it!
[07:08] <CurtisB> right, not using -e, only -Q which *seems* like it ought to be the inverse of -e
[07:08] <Sir_Brizz> mitrovarr, lol! well my NIC card won't work on 2.6.15
[07:08] <Cntryboy> thechris I looked again. only thing that has anything to do with contrast is the themes.. But thats not what Im looking for lol
[07:08] <mitrovarr> well, I have to reboot to try this.  Thanks guys!
[07:08] <Sir_Brizz> mitrovarr, it's stupid because it works flawlessly in 2.6.12
[07:09] <Witigonen> polpak, I just created a new user and it works, so I guess that one account was just screwy.
[07:09] <Ex0r> Hello there guys.
[07:09] <polpak> Witigonen: try changing the password on that account
[07:09] <polpak> Witigonen:  it may just have been entered wrong
[07:09] <Ademan> anyone here have unreal tournament (original) working on their computer (ubuntu)
[07:09] <Ex0r> Does ubuntu come with the firewall on by default?
[07:09] <polpak> Ademan: yep, works find
[07:10] <wastrel> hmm -Q prevents playlist clearing, adding songs to the existing list. CurtisB
[07:10] <intelikey> CurtisB i didn't check the args on xmms i just re-wrote your code. nothing more/less
[07:10] <Ademan> Wx0r: you don't need one, it doesnt listen to the internet AT ALL by default
[07:10] <polpak> Ex0r: linux has a built in firewall (iptables) it's not enabled by default though.
[07:10] <Ademan> Ex0r*
[07:10] <Ex0r> I can't get any internet applications to work on my ubuntu install (I can access all local machines and the router)
[07:10] <Ex0r> how do I go about enabling it?
[07:10] <Witigonen> polpak, probably.
[07:10] <Ademan> polpak: how did you install it?
[07:10] <Ademan> Ex0r: you don't need it... at all...
[07:10] <Ex0r> than how am I supposed to get online ?
[07:10] <polpak> Ademan: copied the installer off the cd into my home directory, chmod +x the file and ran it
[07:11] <polpak> Ex0r: you don't need a firewall to get online
[07:11] <Ademan> polpak: so the unreal tournament cd has a linux installer on it?
[07:11] <polpak> Ex0r: you can't get to any websites?
[07:11] <polpak> Ademan: yes
[07:11] <wastrel> CurtisB:  lose the -Q , you don't need a flag to make xmms use the file args as a new playlist
[07:11] <awesometaylor> hey guys, can the i386 install cd work on amd64?
[07:11] <Ex0r> polpak- I was asking if ubuntu had one by default, and you said no it doesnt listen to anything be default, so I asked how to change it.
[07:11] <CurtisB> wastrel, intelikey, i guess that's why I'm confused -- the xmmx -h (or man) seems to indicate there *is* a way to clear the playlist from the command-line, but I sure can't figure it out... anyway, no biggie, this ought to be enough to keep the wifer ahppy!
[07:11] <polpak> Ademan: something like install.sh or some such
[07:11] <Ademan> polpak: oh cool, what was all that "loki" stuff about then?
[07:11] <Ex0r> polpak- only local machines and the router
[07:11] <Sir_Brizz> polpak, 2k3 and 2k4 come with it, and you can download one for the original UT
[07:11] <Ex0r> cant even run update
[07:11] <intelikey> Ex0r it can
[07:11] <Sir_Brizz> oops, I meant Ademan
[07:12] <Sir_Brizz> Loki wrote the original UT installer
[07:12] <Sir_Brizz> and then Epic hired him
[07:12] <polpak> Ex0r: not having a firewall has nothing to do with not being able to access the internet
[07:12] <CurtisB> wastrel - heh, okay that clears it alright, but if there are two or more files selected by the keyword only that last one stays in the playlist :( rofl
[07:12] <Ex0r> polpak- It does if the firewall is preventing outgoing access
[07:12] <Ademan> Sir_Brizz: ah, yeah i already installed ut2k4, quite painless :-)   but i didnt know if the original had the same, i assumed it didnt (becase of loki) so would you happen to know where i could find the install script?
[07:12] <polpak> Ex0r: but the firewall isn't ENABLED by default
[07:13] <Witigonen> awesometaylor, I think so, but that's a very vague 'think.'  It will probably work, just not take advantage of the 64 bit capabilities.
[07:13] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, one sec
[07:13] <polpak> Ex0r: so that's not your problem unless you already turned it on
[07:13] <Ex0r> So than why am I not able to visit any external websites?
[07:13] <polpak> Ex0r: because something else is wrong.. that's what I'm saying
[07:13] <Ademan> Ex0r: can you connect to your router?
[07:13] <Ex0r> I know it's not my network card, I can access all my network based computers, and my router
[07:13] <waseem> hi im trying to install my Samsung ML-2250 laser printer, any ideas how i should go about doing that? thanks.
[07:13] <Cntryboy> thechris could I edit the xf86config file for brightness
[07:13] <polpak> Ex0r: if you can hit your router then it's not (probably) a firewall issue
[07:13] <Cntryboy> or is there a slider?
[07:13] <Ex0r> Ademan, yes
[07:14] <wastrel> CurtisB:  kludgey but, make a blank playlist, call xmms with the blank list, then use -Q to add to it
[07:14] <oni-dracula> can anyone assist with cedega issues? or is this one of those things I'll have to wait 3 months for transgaming to email back with a dumb answer
[07:14] <Witigonen> waseem, I never had any problem with my ML-1710 - just turned it on and went through the add new printer wizard.
[07:14] <Ademan> Ex0r: with firefox navigate to about:config     and change network.*something*.disableipv6   to true
[07:14] <megatog615> Heh, anyone know how to get games running with ESD?
[07:14] <waseem> witigonen: my model number isn't on the list
[07:14] <megatog615> I hate having to kill the process every time I play Tremulous
[07:14] <wastrel> Witigonen:  the 2250 doesn't have an entry in cups
[07:15] <polpak> !ip6
[07:15] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, polpak
[07:15] <waseem> Witigonen: and i dont even think its mounted yet, and sadly i dont know how to do that either
[07:15] <polpak> !ipv6
[07:15] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[07:15] <polpak> Ademan: but I don't think that's nessicaraly his problem
[07:15] <wastrel> waseem:  use HP laserjet 6 series - works perfectly with my ml-2250 so far
[07:15] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, http://www.liflg.org/?catid=6&gameid=51
[07:15] <Ademan> thanks Sir_Brizz
[07:16] <Ademan> Sir_Brizz: while you're at it, do you happen to know where the linux patches are? same places?
[07:16] <Cntryboy> guess chris is sleeping lol.. Anyone know how to adjust brightness?
[07:16] <Ex0r> network.dns.ipv6disable
[07:16] <waseem> thanks wastrel
[07:16] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, let me look
[07:16] <CurtisB> wastrel - yeah i'm trying things in that vein, but it seems to want to pop the file selection dialog in that case.... I'll mess with it more tomorrow, gotta get some sleep... thanks for the help though, guys!
[07:17] <Ex0r> ademan- would that cause even my updates to not work? It fails trying to download them
[07:17] <QMario> Thechris, I like KDE, but I still use GNOME. :)
[07:17] <Ademan> Ex0r: no i wouldnt think so
[07:17] <Ex0r> I go to download updates and it says failed
[07:17] <polpak> Ex0r: if you can't get online you can't get any updates from the internet
[07:17] <QMario> Another one?
[07:17] <ome> Anyone have any advice for Nvidia 6800? I just installed ubuntu and so far i added nvidiaglx in repository. Is there anything further i should to for better 3d support?
[07:17] <Ademan> Ex0r: does it even list your updates?
[07:17] <Ex0r> I was asking if doing that in firefox had any barring on anything else
[07:17] <intelikey> CurtisB one could even....     for Q in `find /media/hda4/music -name "*$1*.ogg" -print '{}' \; ` ;do mxxs -pf $Q ;done
[07:17] <Ex0r> ademan yes
[07:18] !lilo:*! We just lost a tiny regional server, 270 or so users affected.
[07:18] <AlienX> ome, did you look at the wiki for nvidia information?
[07:18] <intelikey> CurtisB are you sure you want to limit that to .ogg only ?
[07:18] <AlienX> ome, or better yet, the forum.
[07:18] <ome> nah ill check it out
[07:18] <ome> kidna hard to find specifics with a keyword like nvidia
[07:19] <megatog615> Anyone know how to get games working with ESD?
[07:19] <Ademan> Ex0r: thats absolutely bizzarre then
[07:19] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, I think those installers auto-patch the game...
[07:19] <CurtisB> find: paths must precede expression - intelikey - yeah for now ogg keeps it simple... I have almost exclusively ogg vorbis music files
[07:19] <Ex0r> and if ubuntu doesnt work with my nic, I am going to be very upset. I lost everything on my windows hdd trying to install ubuntu and if i can't use it i'm going to be upset.
[07:20] <polpak> Ex0r: ubutu obviously works with your nick or you couldn't get to your router.. more common sense pls.
[07:20] <megatog615> Well if it lets you use IRC, then it's obviously working
[07:20] <[Ex0r] > polpak just because something works, doesn't mean it's 100% compatible.
[07:20] <polpak> [Ex0r] : ah yes, clearly you know what you're talking about
[07:21] <Cntryboy> I'm about to fall asleep is there anyone here that knows how to adjust brightness?
[07:21] <hanasaki> how do you build the nvidia kernel module for acustom kernel made with make-kpgk?
[07:21] <intelikey> CurtisB only reason i asked,  that could play whole dirs of music files too...  but you know how your system is laid out, i don't.     just blithering cause i'm sleepy.
[07:21] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, this also might be helpful
[07:21] <CurtisB> intelikey - this helps prevent que doubling from say: folder named <keyword> with songs with <keyword>
[07:21] <Sir_Brizz> http://www.princessleia.com/UT.php
[07:21] <megatog615> What do you use to convert to ogg?
[07:21] <intelikey> !tell hanasaki about nvidia
[07:22] <Cntryboy> guess not grr
[07:22] <megatog615> I got soundconvert and tried it, and the quality was terrible
[07:22] <Ademan> Sir_Brizz: so if i used the default installer from the ut2k4 cd then it "should" be up to date?
[07:22] <arthurb> Hum the picture changed on ubuntu.com... the people are not in a circle anymore
[07:22] <polpak> [Ex0r] : you sure it's not just a DNS problem?
[07:22] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, for the original ut?
[07:22] <Ademan> Sir_Brizz: thanks for the help too
[07:22] <arthurb> anyone else is seeing a Svatiska there ??
[07:22] <intelikey> CurtisB find has -type [f,d...]  as well.
[07:22] <[Ex0r] > polpak- on the router end, or on the system end ?
[07:22] <Ademan> Sir_Brizz: no unreal tournament 2004
[07:22] <hanasaki> intelikey: this is for a custom kernel.. i think that procedure only works for the respository kernels
[07:22] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, ah, no hold on
[07:22] <[Ex0r] > I am on another system at my house, I know the internet works.
[07:22] <polpak> [Ex0r] : cat /etc/resolv.conf anything in there?
[07:23] <CurtisB> intelikey - good point!  well I'll fiddle more tomorrow... if I don't go get some sleep I'll be a real bastard in the mornin' :)
[07:23] <intelikey> hanasaki ah. ok sorry i flodded you with it then.
[07:23] <polpak> [Ex0r] : obviously or you'd be talking to yourself
[07:23] <[Ex0r] > let me check, brb
[07:23] <polpak> [Ex0r] : k
[07:23] <intelikey> CurtisB i'm with you.
[07:23] <[Ex0r] > no, i could be on at another location other than were my server is
[07:23] <hanasaki> naw.. not flooded... but.. i need to build the kernel mod for the kernel i made wth kernel-package
[07:24] <polpak> [Ex0r] : well it wouldn't do much good to try and get support if you couldn't access the computer having the problem. Go check your resolv.conf file pls
[07:24] <cdubya> sup, hanasaki
[07:24] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, http://icculus.org/news/news.php?id=2536
[07:24] <hanasaki> hey cdubya ltns sup
[07:24] <[Ex0r] > hey polpak, should that bad_list be empty by default ?
[07:24] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, http://icculus.org/news/news.php?id=2548
[07:24] <Cntryboy> I can't believe out of everyone here no one here has ever adjusted their brightness
[07:24] <cdubya> hanasaki, watcha doing over this way?
[07:24] <Ademan> thanks Sir_Brizz
[07:24] <hanasaki> cdubya: where you at these days
[07:24] <cdubya> hanasaki, still in school trying to finish.....
[07:24] <cdubya> heh
[07:24] <hanasaki> this way? eh cdubya ?
[07:24] <wastrel> Cntryboy:  my system does that via hardware controls
[07:24] <polpak> [Ex0r] : what bad_list ?
[07:24] <Sir_Brizz> Ademan, http://www.mofunzone.com/game_patch_downloads/unreal_tournament_2004_3369_2.shtml
[07:25] <Cntryboy> how can I do that wastrel
[07:25] <[Ex0r] > sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/bad_list
[07:25] <Cntryboy> I need to find a brightness control :(
[07:25] <[Ex0r] > that
[07:25] <cdubya> hanasaki, this way == #ubuntu
[07:25] <cdubya> heh
[07:25] <intelikey> Cntryboy on the monitor ?   hehhe i use the monitors controls for that
[07:25] <wastrel> exactly
[07:25] <Cntryboy> monitor is all the way up
[07:25] <polpak> [Ex0r] : eh.. leave your modules alone pls
[07:25] <pc22> how do i update to latest flash?
[07:25] <[Ex0r] > polpak- Thank quit giving me links
[07:25] <polpak> [Ex0r] : it's not a driver problem
[07:25] <intelikey> Cntryboy sounds like a misconfig on xorg
[07:26] <Cntryboy> I want to adjust it with in linux. windows and the nvidia drivers allows me to change brightness
[07:26] <waseem> wastrel: its sending an error message
[07:26] <[Ex0r] > That was a link you posted for disabling ipv6
[07:26] <wastrel> Cntryboy:  maybe the frequency setting is wrong for your monitor
[07:26] <polpak> [Ex0r] : no, that was Ademan
[07:26] <Cntryboy> no its set at 60hz
[07:26] <intelikey> Cntryboy ^ that
[07:26] <polpak> [Ex0r] : but it doens't matter, I don't think that's your issue
[07:26] <Cntryboy> I don't wanna make it super bright just a tad brighter than what it is
[07:26] <polpak> [Ex0r] : and I said as much
[07:26] <intelikey> 60 ????    160 maybe
[07:26] <[Ex0r] > it came back with a result
[07:27] <Cntryboy> no 60 hz
[07:27] <polpak> [Ex0r] : which is?
[07:27] <[Ex0r] > 192.168.0.1 and hlsd1.comcast.net
[07:27] <polpak> [Ex0r] : ok seems good
[07:27] <polpak> [Ex0r] : try this
[07:27] <intelikey> this poor thing i'm using does 85 with the stock drivers

[07:29] <oni-dracula> thechris, I am having a very strange error
[07:29] <[Ex0r] > only thing I can think is that anything that's not on the network is blocked in iptables or similar

[07:30] <thechris> oni-dracula: looks like an issue with point2play.  have you tried other versions?

[07:30] <oni-dracula> thechris, this is the latest version of cedega I'm using
[07:30] <Tonren> Hey, can anyone share some words of wisdom on getting Laptop Hibernate to work?
[07:30] <[Ex0r] > dhcp
[07:31] <Cntryboy> so ubuntu doesn't have a slider to easily adjust brightness?
[07:31] <thechris> oni-dracula: and do you have pygtk or whatever was required for point2play
[07:31] <n30n> Tonren: can;t you just turn off the laptop
[07:31] <polpak> [Ex0r] : try deactivating it, then reactivate it
[07:31] <[Ex0r] > polpak- it's configured via dhcp
[07:31] <oni-dracula> indeed I do, thechris, I have all libraries needed installed
[07:31] <noiesmo> Cntryboy, I have a benq 772 my settings are HorizSync 30-72 VertRefresh 50-120 but check as intelikey  suggested
[07:32] <wastrel> [Ex0r] :  you can ping machines on your lan but not the internet?
[07:32] <intelikey> Cntryboy best of luck.    g'day
[07:32] <Tonren> n30n: I really shouldn't have to answer this, but yeah.  However, then I lose all of my windows that were open, and I have to re-instantiate my entire workspace.
[07:32] <polpak> wastrel: yes
[07:32] <Cntryboy> ty
[07:32] <intelikey> np
[07:32] <polpak> wastrel: he can't get to anything outside his lan
[07:32] <wastrel> default gateway not set ?
[07:32] <AMCDeathKnight> Fianlly lol in
[07:32] <Tonren> n30n: Obviously, I can just turn off the laptop.  That's what I've been DOING.
[07:32] <[Ex0r] > nothing at all polpak
[07:32] <polpak> wastrel: was checking that next
[07:32] <AMCDeathKnight> Imma need some help partition wise in the install
[07:32] <n30n> Tonren: ok. I was just making sure you had a valid reason for wanting to do it. What happens when you try
[07:32] <[Ex0r] > I just successfully pinged my router and this computer im on
[07:32] <Tonren> n30n: Oh, ok.  I was like, "What is he THINKING."  Hehe, sorry
[07:32] <polpak> [Ex0r] : ok, close that..
[07:33] <[Ex0r] > already done
[07:33] <Tonren> n30n: It tends to hang on hard drive write.  It doesn't even completely shut down - the hard drive just spins and spins and spins.
[07:33] <[Ex0r] > waiting for next bit of instructions
[07:33] <polpak> [Ex0r] : in the terminal type netstat -r
[07:33] <Tonren> n30n: The only way to use the laptop again after that is to force shutdown by holding the Power button.
[07:33] <johnstar> hello all, does anyone know of a usb wireless g card with native linux support?
[07:33] <n30n> Tonren: hm. is this a new problem posed by linux or has it always done that?
[07:34] <Tonren> n30n: Not at all.  It hibernated just fine with Windows XP.
[07:34] <[Ex0r] > destination 192.168.0.0 gateway * subnet 255.255.255.0
[07:34] <Muzik_> AMCDK: what kinda partition questions?
[07:34] <AMCDeathKnight> I have HDA1 {Windows}, hda5 Partition for files, and I have unallocated 21 gigs that I want to put Ubuntu on, how can I do this?
[07:34] <n30n> Tonren: Alright. Are you running Dapper?
[07:34] <Tonren> n30n: Yep.
[07:34] <johnstar> :)
[07:35] <[Ex0r] > It's weird, the livecd worked, as soon as I installed it, it stopped working like that :\
[07:35] <polpak> [Ex0r] : just that one line? or was there more
[07:35] <orale> Hi! my acrobat reader plugin for firefox is not working, can someone help me fix it?
[07:35] <[Ex0r] > no, just that one line
[07:35] <polpak> [Ex0r] : oh
[07:35] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, just run the installer and tell it to install in unallocated space
[07:35] <polpak> [Ex0r] : that's the problem then. no default router
[07:35] <n30n> Tonren: Okay, this is just totally theory. But TRY installing xubuntu in symantec. It MIGHT help. Also make sure you have downloaded bug updates in the update manager
[07:35] <AMCDeathKnight> Im in the installer now
[07:35] <[Ex0r] > wait, yes one more just came up
[07:35] <[Ex0r] > default 192.168.0.2 0.0.0.0
[07:35] <polpak> [Ex0r] : ah
[07:35] <AMCDeathKnight> It wont do it
[07:35] <polpak> [Ex0r] : that's way wrong
[07:35] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, you up to partitioning?
[07:35] <AMCDeathKnight> Keeps pointing to my Windows drive
[07:35] <AMCDeathKnight> Yes
[07:36] <[Ex0r] > how could that affect it if it can still ping the rest of the network, and access the router ?
[07:36] <Tonren> n30n: Shouldn't the bug updates automatically download with Update Manager?  Also, installing Xubuntu seems like a pretty complex task... what does it entail?  And I know I could just Google this, but I don't really know what Xubuntu is, anyway.
[07:36] <polpak> [Ex0r] : because you don't need a router to access machines on the same subnet
[07:36] <[Ex0r] > my other machines are on 255.255.255.0, not 0.0.0.0
[07:36] <AMCDeathKnight> Im surprised the installcd didnt come with xchat, i had to download filezilla plugin for Firefox
[07:36] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, k.. click on the empty space on your drive.... then press create. Create a partition, of type linux swap, and make it...
[07:36] <polpak> [Ex0r] : but everone else is on the outside network isn't on your subnet so you can't route to them
[07:36] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, how much ram??
[07:37] <AMCDeathKnight> 512
[07:37] <cdubya> Tonren, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[07:37] <n30n> Tonren: No, it's easy. Just open up Symantic, in system>administration and press 'ctrl+f" and type in "xubuntu"
[07:37] <[Ex0r] > how do I go about getting it fixed ?
[07:37] <wastrel> filezilla?
[07:37] <AMCDeathKnight> chatzilla
[07:37] <AMCDeathKnight> lol
[07:37] <cdubya> !xubuntu
[07:37] <ubotu> xubuntu is, like, Ubuntu using Xfce instead of Gnome for the desktop. Details here: https://www.xubuntu.org
[07:37] <wastrel> [Ex0r] :  what's your router ip?
[07:37] <[Ex0r] > btw, is the default user you configure the super user ?
[07:37] <Tonren> Hmmm.
[07:37] <[Ex0r] > 192.168.0.2
[07:38] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, k, make the swap partition about 512M too, (any corrections) and in the remaining space, create a partition of type linux (ext3), the write changes to disk and press done
[07:38] <n30n> [Ex0r] : yes
[07:38] <polpak> [Ex0r] : I don't think that's your router ip
[07:38] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, be careful, as one mistake here can erase your data for ever, its best to have a backup first
[07:38] <polpak> [Ex0r] : cause your DNS server was .1 I think
[07:38] <[Ex0r] > polpak yes it is my router ip
[07:38] <AMCDeathKnight> I know lol
[07:38] <[Ex0r] > .1 is my modem
[07:38] <wastrel> [Ex0r] :  can you ping 72.14.207.99
[07:38] <polpak> [Ex0r] : ah
[07:38] <polpak> wastrel: no he can't
[07:38] <polpak> wastrel: he doesn't have his default route set right
[07:39] <[Ex0r] > wastrel- I can't access ANYthing external
[07:39] <[Ex0r] > no, ubuntu doesn't, not me
[07:39] <n30n> I need a flash video creator for Linux. Whats a good one findable in Synamtic
[07:39] <n30n> Synaptic**
[07:39] <[Ex0r] > polpak, where do I go to set my default router up at ?
[07:39] <cdubya> someone was talking about one in here the other day, n3on, but the name escapes me
[07:40] <wastrel> i thought the router was at .2 ?
[07:40] <[Ex0r] > it is. Modem is at .1 and can't be accessed while router is installed
[07:40] <cdubya> n3on, think it was a bit to build it, though, if I remember right the way they were talking
[07:40] <n30n> cdubya: any idea what hte name was?
[07:40] <AMCDeathKnight> The partions are made but it wont allow me to select them
[07:40] <AMCDeathKnight> to install
[07:40] <cdubya> n3on, man, I wish I could remember it....hang on.....
[07:41] <n30n> cdubya: you know if you type n3 and press tab it will finish my name for you
[07:41] <polpak> [Ex0r] : I'm not sure that makes sense since the resolv.conf had the DNS set up for .1 if that's not accessable with the router there how would you do DNS?
[07:41] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, did you create the correct kind?
[07:41] <AMCDeathKnight> It has it set to: Unknown
[07:41] <AMCDeathKnight> I did make them swap/ext3
[07:41] <[Ex0r] > It's probably getting it from the router. The router and modem are in bridged mode, so you can't access the modem by going to 192.168.0.1
[07:41] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, and you wrote the changes to disk before exiting partitioner??
[07:41] <Ademan> Sir_Brizz: any clue how to limit the framerate for unreal tournament?
[07:41] <Cntryboy> im out lates
[07:42] <[Ex0r] > unless you disconnect the router and reset the modem
[07:42] <AMCDeathKnight> Yeh, i clicked Forward in the installer
[07:42] <wastrel> [Ex0r] :  i suggest manually configuring the interface, instead of using dhcp, see if that works
[07:42] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, i dont think that actually writes changes to disk though
[07:42] <AMCDeathKnight> oh
[07:42] <blanky> (already asked in #ubuntu-server, waited an hour, no response) if I install an ubuntu server, CLI only, is there a way to make the text smaller, like, higher resolution terminal?
[07:42] <[Ex0r] > It makes no sense at all to me. I can access my other machines, even though according to netstat they are on a different subnet, but I can't access anything external
[07:42] <[Ex0r] > brb
[07:42] <airzer0> other than python what is another good language to start out with ? html?
[07:42] <[Ex0r] > php
[07:43] <blanky> anyone?
[07:43] <polpak> airzer0: html isn't really a programming language
[07:43] <blanky> airzer0, html isn't really a language with which you write applications, although technically most would argue that it is one
[07:43] <blanky> haha polok
[07:43] <AMCDeathKnight> How do i do it then
[07:43] <blanky> *polpak
[07:43] <cdubya> n3on, maybe check here? I can't seem to remember the name, I apologize, but maybe there's something there.....  http://www.hotscripts.com/Flash/Software/index.html
[07:43] <polpak> airzer0: what's wrong with python?
[07:43] <wastrel> blanky:  i think you need to build a different console font into the kernel ... that's how it used to be done -been a while since i did that tho...
[07:44] <airzer0> ok so i started on python but want to learn more
[07:44] <blanky> wastrel, oh well, thanks
[07:44] <n30n> cdubya: thanks dude.
[07:44] <airzer0> knowledge is power nothing wrong with python
[07:44] <waseem> wastrel: i posted on pastebin, but no replies yet
[07:44] <wastrel> blanky:  i'm certainly no authority on the issue :] 
[07:44] <cdubya> n3on, np. Hope that helps.
[07:44] <blanky> airzer0, did you just get to 'print "hello world"' and say you're done learning it? Python is very vast, explore its modules, you'll be surprised
[07:44] <waseem> does anyone know the average time it takes to get a reply on pastebin>
[07:44] <wastrel> waseem:  show us the pastebin link
[07:44] <waseem> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15677
[07:44] <[Ex0r] > configured manually, still no go poncho1
[07:44] <[Ex0r] > polpak*
[07:45] <AMCDeathKnight> Should i go back into Windows and use PartitionMagic to do it?
[07:45] <blanky> [POLL]  TAB Completion in IRC has been acting weird lately. 1) YES 2) NO
[07:45] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, I'm assuming that the option to use contiguous free space on step 5 did not work then?
[07:45] <Tonren> airzer0: I don't know Python, but C is a classic.  I should probably look into Python, actually...
[07:45] <airzer0> well not versed in python, started 2 days ago did not give up i like to build a plan
[07:45] <AMCDeathKnight> hang on
[07:45] <AMCDeathKnight> lol
[07:45] <wastrel> blanky:  it's because there's 800 someodd people in this channel
[07:45] <AMCDeathKnight> I didnt read that bit
[07:45] <AMCDeathKnight> as well as i should
[07:45] <[Ex0r] > grrr this is pissing me off
[07:45] <blanky> wastrel, I know haha just playing
[07:46] <[Ex0r] > why wont the damn thing work
[07:46] <polpak> [Ex0r] : are you on a linux box now? or windows?
[07:46] <AMCDeathKnight> I dont wan tto do that
[07:46] <cdubya> [Ex0r] , what are you trying to do?
[07:46] <n30n> cdubya: I think the one i used to use in windows is like marcomedia flash creator pro or something like that.
[07:46] <[Ex0r] > windows now
[07:46] <AMCDeathKnight> or it will get rid of my file partition
[07:46] <[Ex0r] > cdubya- trying to get my ubuntu to go online, but it wont. Only inner-network accessible
[07:46] <cdubya> n3on, wish I could help you there.....I don't do flash, so I'm not much help. :-/
[07:46] <polpak> [Ex0r] : windows XP?
[07:46] <n30n> cdubya: btw, its a zero, not a capatal o. Not meant to offend.
[07:47] <polpak> [Ex0r] : or something else
[07:47] <[Ex0r] > polpak- winxp
[07:47] <cdubya> n30n, gotcha.
[07:47] <[Ex0r] > I can also ping the ubuntu box from windows, so..
[07:47] <ic56> blanky: yes, you can change the console font.  Get the SVGATextMode package.
[07:47] <cdubya> [Ex0r] , so what all have you tried?
[07:47] <polpak> [Ex0r] : what do you get from this system if you do ipconfig from a dos prompt?
[07:47] <blanky> ic56, thanks sir!
[07:47] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, if you don't want to do that you will need to run the partitioner....
[07:47] <ic56> blanky: yw!
[07:48] <polpak> cdubya: he can access anything on his local network, he can't ping any outside ip's
[07:48] <n30n> cdubya: yep. well anyway. i also need some help with audio recorder
[07:48] <AMCDeathKnight> Where'
[07:48] <n30n> cdubya: Idk if my mic is broken or i don't have it configed right
[07:48] <cdubya> polpak, from any boxes or just the ubuntu box?
[07:48] <polpak> cdubya: just ubunut
[07:48] <polpak> cdubya: ubunut
[07:48] <Matthewv> i don't have one right in front of me, but when in partitioning, there should be a tick or something like that at the top, which will write changes to disk... ie after making changes you will see the pending operations list.. and these will be done once the tick or whatever is pressed
[07:48] <wastrel> waseem:  i don't know the problem - keep asking in here & showing the pastebin link...
[07:48] <cdubya> and he's getting a good IP?
[07:48] <[Ex0r] > hsd1.comcast.net connection specific dns, 192.168.0.101 local ip, 255.255.255.0 for subnet, 192.168.0.2 for gateway ip
[07:48] <waseem> k thanks
[07:48] <polpak> cdubya: argh.. can't type ;p
[07:49] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, choose manually edit partition table
[07:49] <waseem> does anyone else understand the following error message? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15677
[07:49] <AMCDeathKnight> k
[07:49] <brn> question:  I have a new Epson C88 printer.  It works, albeit slow but I can't find a *nix package to exploit its options. -Any help?-
[07:49] <waseem> ive been trying to install a local samsung ml-2250 laser printer
[07:49] <cdubya> heh....polpak, so he's getting a good IP?
[07:49] <[Ex0r] > cdubya- yeah, i can ping all local machines and router, and can ping the ubuntu box from all machines, just can't access anything outside of the network
[07:49] <AMCDeathKnight> have to begin setuo again i accidently closed it
[07:49] <[Ex0r] > I am seriously thinking my ubuntu has all outside ports blocked by default
[07:49] <polpak> [Ex0r] : what's your ubuntu systems' hostname set to?
[07:49] <[Ex0r] > how do I check
[07:49] <[Ex0r] > ?
[07:49] <polpak> [Ex0r] : iptables -L
[07:50] <cdubya> [Ex0r] , shouldn't be
[07:50] <polpak> [Ex0r] : will show what firewall rules you have on
[07:50] <nigel_c> Might also try route -n
[07:50] <polpak> [Ex0r] : we checked his route.. looks ok
[07:50] <polpak> err nigel_c ^^
[07:50] <wastrel> hostname
[07:50] <TrendKi||> hello every1
[07:50] <nigel_c> Ah.
[07:50] <[Ex0r] > polpak, iptables -L shows nothing at all
[07:51] <polpak> [Ex0r] : hostname will give you the hostname
[07:51] <airzer0> well i understand most of whati have seen in python but a lot of it throws me off is there anythig i can learn to build a foundation
[07:51] <AMCDeathKnight> ok, I choose manully edit partition table
[07:51] <polpak> [Ex0r] : by shows nothing you mean it shows input/output/ with no rules and set to accept?
[07:51] <AMCDeathKnight> Chose
[07:51] <[Ex0r] > yes
[07:51] <[Ex0r] > shows nothing for input/forward/output
[07:51] <Ademan> anyone know how to limit the frame rate for unreal tournament?
[07:51] <polpak> airzer0: just find a project to work on, and ask for help in #python
[07:51] <[Ex0r] > and hostname is justin-desktop
[07:52] <airzer0> thanks
[07:52] <[Ex0r] > airzer0 - work on an irc bot. that's what i used to learn perl
[07:52] <polpak> [Ex0r] : can you edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf ?
[07:52] <polpak> [Ex0r] : you'll need to sudo
[07:52] <airzer0> yea i started on a bot but got tottaly lost
[07:53] <polpak> [Ex0r] : uncomment the line for "send host-name"
[07:53] <[Ex0r] > yes i can
[07:53] <polpak> [Ex0r] : and change the host name to justin-desktop
[07:53] <AMCDeathKnight> Matthewv: I choose it, now what

[07:58] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, so you still got some free space now? click on that, and create a partition that uses all the free space and of type 'linux'
[07:58] <Tonren> Hey guys, where did the PHP5FromSource Wiki entry go?
[07:58] <polpak> [Ex0r] : this doesn't make sense.. it's like your router is blocking the traffic
[07:58] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, if 'linux' isn't an option for type, use 'ext3'
[07:58] <wastrel> [Ex0r] :  at this point i'd be looking at the router, yeah
[07:59] <YogSothoth> I installed MySQL server and client using apt on Ubuntu 6.06. It went good but now I don't know how to log in. What are the default creditentials?
[07:59] <AMCDeathKnight> done
[07:59] <[Ex0r] > I don't think it's the router, it works fine for the windows machines.
[07:59] <wastrel> can you check the router logs?

[07:59] <ubotu> rumour has it, dapper is Ubuntu 6.06, the "Dapper Drake" release. Released June 1st 2006
[07:59] <[Ex0r] > somebody ban him
[07:59] <polpak> [Ex0r] : well everything is configured correctly on the box, and there's no firewalling going on.. so it's very much like the router has decided it doesn't like your machine anymore

[08:04] <QMario> Seveas, what is Ubugtu's purpose?
[08:04] <Matthewv> k AMCDeathKnight then can you find the tick, or whatever it is, that writes changes to disk?
[08:04] <AMCDeathKnight> Matthewv: No :-{

[08:07] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, may as well
[08:07] <Krhis> Seveas, thanks, I was just told #debian moved to another channel but it seems to be full....

[08:08] <UdontKnow> nalioth: nailed him
[08:08] <Seveas> slightly 
[08:08] <QMario> What kind of linksys routers?
[08:08] <AMCDeathKnight> Matthewv: ok
[08:08] <nalioth> this is starting to suck
[08:08] <QMario> Seveas, that was beautiful. :)
[08:08] <UdontKnow> QMario: netgear routers

[08:08] <UdontKnow> Seveas: *.net ;)
[08:08] <Amaranth> Seveas: where is Ubugtu's ban?
[08:08] <RancidLM> does any one know where to get tuner.o and bttv.o for ubuntu.. it seems that ubuntu6.06 has problems with my tv tuner
[08:09] <AMCDeathKnight> Just heading to imageshack now
[08:09] <Seveas> Amaranth, removed. too many complaints about false positives
[08:09] <[Ex0r] > wastrel- can we talk in pm ?
[08:09] <QMario> Seveas, how did you output that symbol ""?
[08:09] <Amaranth> RancidLM: those are object files that get linked into an so

[08:09] <Amaranth> RancidLM: those only show up in the middle of a compile
[08:09] <UdontKnow> QMario: is he using an asian input method or whatever? :)
[08:09] <Seveas> Amaranth, .ko (it's a kernel module ;))
[08:09] <Hobbsee> Seveas: well it's really nice that you've actually *told* us about it now, instead of expecting us to read your brain.
[08:09] <RancidLM> Amaranth: but im missing what ever kernel modules are needed for decection of a TV tuner
[08:09] <Amaranth> Seveas: ah
[08:09] <QMario> Okay.

[08:12] <Geoffrey2> is the network really flaky right now, or is the problem on my end?
[08:12] <gnuyen> can someone help me make /dev/dsp?
[08:12] <Amaranth> UdontKnow: but i thought that's what the n= and i= stuff was for
[08:12] <Hobbsee> _Raldz_: install libjasper-runtime
[08:12] <AMCDeathKnight> Matthewv: Resize/Move the Selected Partition
[08:12] <RancidLM> Muzik_: i just did a apget for that and found some thing hopefully thats whats needed :S

[08:12] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, i'm sorry, but as I'm doing something right now, i cant check everything like that....
[08:12] <polpak> Geoffrey2: no, you have a bad router and someone in the channel was exploiting it to boot many people
[08:12] <Amaranth> ah

[08:12] <Kiko0123> what kind of router you guys talking about?
[08:12] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, try just hitting forward then, I think thats whats supposed to happen
[08:12] <Amaranth> Geoffrey2: update the firmware in your router
[08:12] <Kiko0123> and how the hell can someone exploit your over over IRC?
[08:12] <UdontKnow> Amaranth: this (* or ?) in my case, is identify :P
[08:12] <[Ex0r] > anyone here heard of a ubuntu install that doesnt allow foreign traffic? (Traffic outside of the network)
[08:13] <nalioth> Geoffrey2: sign on to freenode using the address "chat.freenode.net" at port 8001
[08:13] <Amaranth> UdontKnow: I don't have that script :P
[08:13] <AMCDeathKnight> Matthewv: Doing something  lol, np sry about all the hassle
[08:13] <UdontKnow> Amaranth: oh well, I do :P
[08:13] <Amaranth> i wonder if it works on xchat-gnome
[08:13] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, if it doesn't come up with a "Writing changes to disk" dialog then I must have missed something
[08:13] <QMario> Why can't they leave us alone?
[08:13] <Geoffrey2> Amaranth, *I* have a bad router? oh, fun....however, I also have the most up-to-date firmware
[08:13] <KenSentMe> Hoxzer: VertRefresh  56-75
[08:13] <Amaranth> i know the mIRC version made it stop notifying me
[08:13] <Geoffrey2> ok, brb
[08:14] <Amaranth> Geoffrey2: If you're getting disconnected your router has a bug.
[08:14] <Amaranth> d'oh
[08:14] <QMario> Bassetts, you will wait quite a while(6 months){}

[08:14] <Kiko0123> how can your router be exploired via IRC?
[08:14] <RancidLM> Muzik_: http://www.hauppauge.com/html/linux.htm thats what i went to but this should be built into the kernel for 6.06 shouldn't it?
[08:14] <[Ex0r] > Kiko0123- scans incoming traffic and it contains a certain string and boots you offline.
[08:14] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : please don't repeat
[08:14] <Amaranth> CAPAB IDENTIFY-MSG is handy
[08:14] <Kiko0123> k..
[08:15] <Bassetts> QMario, i mean to test
[08:15] <[Ex0r] > ther is a linksys router that does that with cuss words, we used to make this one kid go away all the time:)
[08:15] <Amaranth> i used to use it with my bot to autoauth nicks it knew
[08:15] <QMario> Bassets, sorry. ;)
[08:15] <Bassetts> QMario, it is not even usable to test =( i have my test machine all ready for it

[08:17] <Geoffrey2> so, you're saying there's something in my router that someone was exploiting?
[08:17] <Muzik_> RancidLM, wow thats news to me that its included in the kernel!  I still have to do my ivtv updates and im using the 2.6 kernel (according to that page its been in since the 2.2 kernel)
[08:17] <Amaranth> Geoffrey2: yeah
[08:17] <[Ex0r] > Geoffrey2- yeah. I think there are probably firmware updates that get rid of it.
[08:17] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, k, click next and you should be set....
[08:17] <Muzik_> RancidLM, yea tho, according to that page it should be in 6.06

[08:20] <AMCDeathKnight> Thanks for your help Mattthew

[08:21] <[Ex0r] > something is wrong with my ubuntu. The livecd works perfectly, but the actual install doesn't allow any outgoing or incoming external traffic (outside the lan)

[08:21] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, no probs
[08:21] <Hobbsee> Geoffrey2: iirc = if i recall correctly
[08:21] <nicholaspaul> Anyone know how to get Banshee to rip mp3s from CDs?
[08:21] <AMCDeathKnight> Installing System
[08:21] <Geoffrey2> ah, ok.... :)  where would that config setting be...in the router itself?
[08:21] <Matthewv> nicholaspaul, when you have an audio cd in the drive there should be an 'Import CD' button
[08:21] <[Ex0r] > any advice or help would be very much appreciated
[08:21] <AMCDeathKnight> god if this mucks up im giung to get really mad at my computer lol
[08:21] <nicholaspaul> Matthewv:  yup but no mp3 option
[08:22] <Matthewv> nicholaspaul, thats in Edit --> Preferences...
[08:22] <nicholaspaul> Matthewv:  under Encoding? been there too.
[08:23] <nicholaspaul> Matthewv: arent i meant to d/l LAME separately?
[08:23] <AMCDeathKnight> Why didnt Ubuntu Install CD come with xchat? It would have been helpful for those with problems
[08:23] <Geoffrey2> wastrel, where would that config setting be, in the router setup?
[08:23] <neutrinomass> AMCDeathKnight: It comes with Gaim
[08:23] <nicholaspaul> AMCDeathKnight: perhaps cos irssi is easier :)
[08:23] <[Ex0r] > lol not really, because i cant even get my ubuntu to connect to the internet
[08:23] <elkbuntu> AMCDeathKnight, it comes with gaim which can do irc and more
[08:23] <nalioth> AMCDeathKnight: it comes with xchat or xchat-gnome
[08:23] <nicholaspaul> oh hallo nalioth !!
[08:23] <Matthewv> nicholaspaul, can you play mp3's?
[08:24] <AMCDeathKnight> arh lol Gaim never thought too use its IRC capabilities
[08:24] <nalioth> nicholaspaul: you've said that 3 times already.
[08:24] <nalioth> nicholaspaul: howdy
[08:24] <nicholaspaul> nalioth: just twice. :)
[08:24] <[Ex0r] > hmm, i suppose i could use the irc cap. to get on irc through my livecd, but my normal install still doesnt work
[08:24] <wastrel> Geoffrey2:  sorry i don't know - when this problem first surface a couple months ago i think i read something about a config option in the router that was the cause...
[08:24] <AMCDeathKnight> Just to double check, this version has grub?
[08:24] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, it will install it to mbr, yes
[08:25] <AMCDeathKnight> Phew lol
[08:25] <docgnome> I'm trying to add a printer using the add printer dialog. Ubuntu detects my printer properly, however when I am ask to select a driver, no drivers are shown...

[08:25] <AMCDeathKnight> I am lol
[08:25] <mzuverink> I recently installed Xgl/Compiz, and am pleased except for the time it takes for text to focus in properly.  Is there a way to adjust that timeframe to a lesser amount of time?

[08:26] <Matthewv> AMCDeathKnight, don't want to scare you or anything, but I've got one pc here that will never work in windows if grub is on the mbr.... so i always have to reinstall windwos :)
[08:26] <AMCDeathKnight> OMG
[08:26] <nicholaspaul> Matthewv:  yes i can play mp3s (just had to check)
[08:26] <Geoffrey2> well, if connecting to port 8001 fixes the problem for the moment, that'll do
[08:27] <Geoffrey2> well, Windows has certainly never qualfied for the award "Plays well with others" :)
[08:27] <Matthewv> nicholaspaul, i think thats usually enough... but you can install lame and see if the makes a difference... you on dapper?
[08:27] <AMCDeathKnight> Oh and on another note lol, I recently aquired a laptop, the DVDRom-Floppy drive doesnt work, but I want to install Ubuntu on it, can i use my ipod or is there another way to do it, other then pluggin the hardrive into another laptop.
[08:28] <polpak> AMCDeathKnight: you can do a netboot install, or you can use a flash drive
[08:28] <AMCDeathKnight> Geoffrey2: Windows nevcer qualified for anything
[08:29] <AMCDeathKnight> polpak: I might look into Network install, thanks
[08:29] <elkbuntu> Geoffrey2, just remember, your router is just doing it's darndest to protect you.. it just gets a little overzealous at times ;)
[08:29] <nicholaspaul> Matthewv: yea, Dapper.
[08:29] <docgnome> is there a package that contains printer drivers? Specificly I need drivers for an Epson Stylus C82
[08:29] <polpak> AMCDeathKnight: works fine if your nic supports netboot protocol
[08:30] <AMCDeathKnight> polpak: Hmm lol I dont think it does, hopefully it does I gotta check. Thanks
[08:30] <n30n> !multiverse
[08:30] <ubotu> n30n: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:30] <nalioth> n30n: um, i thought i sent that to you
[08:30] <Matthewv> nicholaspaul, i think just installing lame should fix that
[08:30] <[Ex0r] > polpak - some new information
[08:30] <CarlFK> are there any edgy(?) images yet?
[08:30] <n30n> nalioth: it worked now. are you in both rooms?
[08:31] <polpak> [Ex0r] : oh?
[08:31] <Matthewv> CarlFK, dont think so
[08:31] <Hobbsee> CarlFK: not yet
[08:31] <[Ex0r] > loaded up the livecd, and it works fine, and is giving me a different ip address that was assigned
[08:31] <nalioth> n30n: as UdontKnow said, i'm everywhere
[08:31] <CarlFK> M/H - thanks.
[08:31] <AMCDeathKnight> I just want Ubuntu up and running so I can use it, and I dont want to lose Windows cause there is a LAN this weekend and I want to pwn people at the gamez
[08:31] <Ademan> anyone ever have the problem that unreal tournament (original) seems to have time be frame based instead of time based? is there any way to fix this? or even just cap the frame rate?
[08:31] <nicholaspaul> ok Matthewv i'll give it a whirl. Is LAME named something else in the repos? I cant seem to find it...
[08:31] <n30n> nalioth: heh. cool. well thanks. that's all i needed
[08:31] <[Ex0r] > the livecd has internet, the normal install doesn't
[08:31] <polpak> [Ex0r] : what IP do you get on the live CD?
[08:31] <[Ex0r] > 192.168.0.100
[08:31] <polpak> [Ex0r] : and what did you get from the normal install?
[08:32] <Matthewv> nicholaspaul, its in multiverse i think, or univers
[08:32] <[Ex0r] > 192.168.0.103 i believe
[08:32] <Matthewv> *universe
[08:32] <[Ex0r] > it's the same mac address, it should be the same ip for both
[08:32] <bliss_> hello
[08:32] <[Ex0r] > as i havent released the ip's yet
[08:32] <polpak> [Ex0r] : seems ok. What's the output from netstat -r and the contents of /etc/resolv.conf on the live CD?
[08:32] <nicholaspaul> Matthewv: thx - i'll go fishing!
[08:32] <AMCDeathKnight> Hey bliss_
[08:33] <bliss_> just installed fluxbox with aptitude but now do i need to install gdm?
[08:33] <sagarp> i was writing a paper in open office, which i had been consistently saving...and i looked to scroll up a few pages, and suddenly the rest of the pages are gone..oo didnt crash or anything, what happened??
[08:33] <[Ex0r] > polpak same as the other
[08:33] <Matthewv> bliss_, don't have to, you can use startx :)
[08:33] <AMCDeathKnight> Shoukdnt gdm be installed with Ubunutu anyway
[08:33] <bliss_> ARKDeathKnight: hi
[08:33] <polpak> [Ex0r] : odd. reboot off the HD and try to set the ip manually to the 100 address
[08:33] <AMCDeathKnight> lol@ARK
[08:34] <[Ex0r] > actually, I think the resolv.conf is different for the livecd
[08:34] <bliss_> Matthew; ok but i has a server running before with no x
[08:34] <Matthewv> bliss_, did installing fluxbox also install x with it?
[08:34] <[Ex0r] > this one says search hsd1.comcast.net, and nameserver 192.168.0.2
[08:35] <[Ex0r] > do you remember what i said the other one looked like ?
[08:35] <onispawn> has anyone had a problem where the terminal doesnt display anything?
[08:35] <bliss_> Matthew: i think so but does fluxbox need to confiured before starting X?
[08:35] <polpak> <[Ex0r] > 192.168.0.1 and hlsd1.comcast.net
[08:36] <polpak> [Ex0r] : what about netstat -r ?
[08:36] <cdubya> [Ex0r] , you still trying/

[08:36] <docgnome> why are no printer drivers listed in the second step of the add a printer wizard?
[08:36] <[Ex0r] > cdubya- yea
[08:37] <AMCDeathKnight> ok guys, i will log and hope all goes well with the install which by the looks of it has finished or wants to restart to finish.
[08:37] <bliss_> DBO: how it going?
[08:37] <[Ex0r] > polpak- can i manually edit resolv.conf or will it change automatically ?
[08:37] <polpak> [Ex0r] : well I'd try booting off the HD, set your ip manually to the 100 address, and set the resolv.conf
[08:37] <polpak> [Ex0r] : it'll set it automatically when you run the dhcp client, but if you disable it first you can edit the file
[08:37] <pingveno> Do you guys know if there is an FTP server that broadcasts its existance through zeroconf?
[08:38] <Geoffrey2> can anyone help me with my install of Sun's Java package?
[08:38] <pingveno> One that's available for Linux, that is.
[08:38] <cdubya> [Ex0r] , methinks that still sounds like dns issues....
[08:38] <drumline> anyone know of a way to connect to a Sonicwall VPN gateway with Ubuntu?
[08:38] <[Ex0r] > omg it worked
[08:38] <[Ex0r] > i restarted, and it suddenly worked
[08:38] <cdubya> heh
[08:38] <[Ex0r] > after 15 reboots and a successful livecd boot, it works
[08:38] <bliss_> Mathew: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=116759&highlight=fluxbox
[08:39] <cdubya> woo hoo!
[08:39] <[Ex0r] > wow
[08:39] <wastrel> thank jeebus
[08:39] <polpak> [Ex0r] : my guess is it was a DNS problem
[08:39] <cdubya> heh dns
[08:39] <sagarp> are there any other temporary folders on ubuntu besides /tmp?
[08:39] <[Ex0r] > and to think, I thought my ubuntu was fuxed up
[08:39] <cdubya> yep
[08:39] <wastrel> that was a bizarre and annoying one
[08:39] <drumline> [Ex0r] : manually edit the sucker...   and put many DNS servers in there.
[08:39] <[Ex0r] > thank you so much guys
[08:39] <drumline> [Ex0r] : and you don't need to reboot to change resolv.conf
[08:39] <wastrel> i do lurve it when it fixes itself
[08:39] <cdubya> that's where I was going to end up going...good heads up polpak
[08:39] <wastrel> rock on exor

[08:40] <[Ex0r] > you guys are much more helpful than the fedora support team :)
[08:40] <polpak> we try
[08:40] <drumline> [Ex0r] : well...  that's cause we're better.  :)
[08:40] <cdubya> heh
[08:40] <[Ex0r] > they call you idiots and ignore you if you don't know how to do something
[08:40] <drumline> just kidding!
[08:40] <[Ex0r] > night guys, and thanks alot
[08:40] <cdubya> lol at drumline
[08:40] <cdubya> heh
[08:41] <drumline> well... one thing that does need to take a hike is the elitism in Linux
[08:41] <cdubya> yep
[08:41] <cdubya> true dat
[08:41] <AdmiralCrunch> besides that whole being elite part ;)
[08:41] <drumline> ...and Ubuntu certainly has shown the elitism the door.
[08:41] <cdubya> I find that LOTS of places I go
[08:41] <[Ex0r] > goodnight, guys
[08:41] <drumline> niter exor
[08:41] <cdubya> later exor...
[08:41] <AdmiralCrunch> later
[08:41] <cdubya> yeah, that's what I like about this place.....
[08:41] <docgnome> I'm trying to setup my Epson Stylus C82 printer. It is detected correctly by the add a printer wizard in System -> Administration -> Printing however, when I need to select a driver for it, nothing is listed.
[08:42] <cdubya> I can ask and not get made to feel that way.....
[08:42] <drumline> It's funny...  no matter what distro I am using, I find myself in this channel offering and asking for Linux help.  :)
[08:42] <cdubya> heh
[08:42] <AdmiralCrunch> I find myself here or ##slackware
[08:42] <cdubya> go #ubuntu
[08:42] <Matthewv> bliss_, maybe try a 'sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg'
[08:42] <docgnome> running dapper drake
[08:42] <AdmiralCrunch> even though I havent used slackware for a couple years
[08:42] <drumline> how is the slackware channel?
[08:42] <AdmiralCrunch> ##slackware is one of the best help chanels out there
[08:42] <AdmiralCrunch> non-elite
[08:42] <drumline> schweet... I'll check it out some time.
[08:42] <bliss_> Matthew: umm maybe? are we guessing
[08:42] <Muzik_> hehe this is my first time in a linux chat ... seems nice here (im not here to ask questions, hopefully answer the odd one here and there)
[08:42] <AdmiralCrunch> they are into the old fashioned way of doing things
[08:42] <MenZa> Sounds #ubuntu-ish, AdmiralCrunch :)
[08:43] <drumline> AdmiralCrunch: old fashioned?
[08:43] <Snowfairy> I think it's just a sign of Linux becoming more accepted.
[08:43] <Snowfairy> It's no longer just anti-social arsehats that know how to use it.
[08:43] <AdmiralCrunch> yes, like compiling things from source all the time, less package managment
[08:43] <AdmiralCrunch> build your own stuff
[08:43] <AdmiralCrunch> program something if you need it
[08:43] <MenZa> I discovered that a long time ago when I tried Ubuntu for the first time, Snowfairy :)
[08:43] <AdmiralCrunch> more "purist" I suppose
[08:44] <cdubya> docgnome.....you're sure that the printer is supported?
[08:44] <docgnome> cdubya: fairly sure.
[08:44] <Dewbie> ok I have a slight problem
[08:44] <AdmiralCrunch> whats that Dewbie
[08:44] <Dewbie> Ive been tryig to get pppd to dial out
[08:44] <Snowfairy> MenZa hehe, well, I'm personally very glad about Ubuntu, my first (useful) distribution was FreeBSD, and I had someone holding my hand through that, but eventually lost touch and couldn't figure anything out... so went back to Windows for a long time
[08:45] <MenZa> heh.
[08:45] <Snowfairy> then... I found LiveCDs... started with Knoppix... then a slight time later, ubuntu... started using it on my own computer.... then I moved up to canadia, and showed it to my girlfriend... she converted to ubuntu full time, and so here I Am :P
[08:45] <Dewbie> its et up right but when I type sudo pppd call 1xevdo it tells me that /usr/sbin/chat/ can't be found
[08:45] <MenZa> I'm not using any Linux distrobution right now, as I accidentally formatted it :S
[08:45] <MenZa> I'm beta testing Vista. It's not Linux, but it's alright.
[08:45] <Matthewv> bliss_, that will install x, i'm just not sure if it will fix ur problem, have you checked to see if 'startx' works?
[08:45] <Snowfairy> and I've been perusing the wonderful volunteers here on a regular basis :)
[08:45] <AdmiralCrunch> Dewbie, I will try to help you, but I gotta check on something for your problem
[08:46] <drumline> Snowfairy: the main difference is that the interface does not REQUIRE the advanced technical knowledge to get it running anymore..   There are now two ways to do it.  The difference with Windows is that the registry is undocumented you never could easily configure windows from an elite perspective.
[08:46] <Dewbie> although
[08:46] <Dewbie> lemme check somethig real quick
[08:46] <drumline> snowblink: thus, the elites will still be here.  The challenge is creating an environment where they aren't welcome.  And Ubuntu is doing that nicely.
[08:46] <Snowfairy> drumline, mostly true I suppose :)  although the registry is documented... trust me... I took about half a semester of MCSE study, and then said the hell with it :P
[08:47] <AdmiralCrunch> Dewbie, as much information you have about your problem the better, since I have never used pppd I am just searching myself
[08:47] <drumline> snowblink: might be documented, but try typing "man *****" on the windows command line.  :)
[08:47] <Snowfairy> drumline, I partially welcome some of the elite people... as they often are -very- helpful if you're skilled enough to ask the right question.
[08:47] <Snowfairy> but, I don't like the ones that are just mean.
[08:48] <Snowfairy> lol :)
[08:48] <Snowfairy> snowblink is gonna wonder why you're typing to them ;) (silly nick complete) :)
[08:48] <AdmiralCrunch> Snowfairy, I agree, I actually do like elitist linux people often, they know what they are talking about if you ask the right questions
[08:48] <Celestar> I'd like to set up a network server. it's supposed to do be WinNT4 PDC (samba), and provide authentication for all the *nix boxes I have (ldap). I also need SSO on the unix side (kerberos). Is there any doc on how to put this together so that I have one account and one password per user, even if they use both worlds?
[08:48] <drumline> Snowfairy: I think we're not talking about the same thing.   When I say "elite," I am talking about people who wont give you the answer and always refer you to google and man pages...
[08:48] <Surfnkid> lord windows sucks
[08:48] <Snowfairy> drumline, I call that mean :)
[08:49] <cdubya> heh, "cmd". "man *****". "Command not found."
[08:49] <bliss_> Matthew: if you read the howto I posted point no8
[08:49] <drumline> snowblink: that too. :)
[08:49] <Snowfairy> drumline, elite I usually mean the people that know the inner working like the back of their hand.  They often speak way over your head when they do give an answer, but some are even nice enough to explain.
[08:49] <B0FH> i am trying to instal flashplugin for mozila and i cannot can someone please help me? i followed the howto in !restricted but it still does not work
[08:49] <bliss_> Matthew: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=116759
[08:49] <crimsun_> B0FH: use Synaptic to install flashplugin-nonfree
[08:49] <Snowfairy> BOFH, Flash is a bit iffy at best anyways ^^;;;;;
[08:50] <Surfnkid> flash doesnt work correctly under ubuntu
[08:50] <crimsun_> B0FH: there's a priority mismatch that you'll hit if you use apt-get/aptitude
[08:50] <Surfnkid> ive come to accept that conclusion
[08:50] <pppoe_dude> Surfnkid, which package are you using?
[08:50] <Surfnkid> hearing also that flash doesnt care for it to work too
[08:50] <Matthewv> bliss_, thanks, can you do a 'dpkg -s xserver-xorg' which will tell if x is installed or not
[08:50] <Snowfairy> Surfnkid, well.. I got some of it working (at least enough to play games on pogo.com)
[08:50] <Surfnkid> um just the one i dl from crapomedia
[08:50] <Qua> hi guys, I have a problem with booting Dapper (running init scripts) on a custom kernel that worked fine on Breezy, have the debug info... anyone who could led me a hand?
[08:50] <Surfnkid> :P
[08:50] <Snowfairy> but... I don't hope for any more then that.
[08:50] <Surfnkid> pppoe_dude not sure of the version 7 or 8
[08:50] <pingveno> docgnome: Have you found it yet? It's under Epson -> Stylus C82
[08:50] <drumline> snowblink: gotcha...   the ones who aren't nice enough to explain are 133+3 and the others are cool.  :)
[08:51] <Geoffrey2> it works decently for me..but the problem is the Linux distro is a full version out of date, and it's really starting to show
[08:51] <ice_1963> it's 7
[08:51] <pingveno> At least in KDE
[08:51] <Surfnkid> Snowfairy oh good, my company website doesnt display the embedded text at all
[08:51] <bliss_> Matthew; do i neesd xserver-xorg?
[08:51] <drumline> 3y3 |\|0
[08:51] <Surfnkid> Snowfairy but works fine in WinOS's
[08:51] <bliss_> matthew: i will have chroot into hda1 from live cd
[08:52] <Snowfairy> Surfnkid, that's yucky :(
[08:52] <Surfnkid> !chroot
[08:52] <ubotu> Surfnkid: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:52] <ice_1963> :)
[08:52] <n30n_> ok. when i open etc/apt/sources.list with sudo gedit its blank. but when i open the file read only it has its file content. wtf mate
[08:52] <Hoxzer> ;)
[08:52] <docgnome> pingveno: I'm not trying to "Find" the driver
[08:52] <Surfnkid> Snowfairy yeah i guess but i dont care much for flash, its allright
[08:52] <Matthewv> bliss_, you will need x to run fluxbox
[08:52] <B0FH> crimsun_,  say what?
[08:52] <docgnome> there is nothing listed
[08:52] <docgnome> at all
[08:52] <Hobbsee> n30n_: stick a / in front of ext
[08:52] <Hobbsee> n30n_: stick a / in front of etc
[08:52] <docgnome> the drop down boxes are all empty
[08:53] <Surfnkid> well anyway i gotta clean some stuff up
[08:53] <Surfnkid> ill brb
[08:53] <n30n_> Hobbsee: ohhhhh i see whats wrong then. thanks
[08:53] <B0FH> crimsun_,  i also installed the plugin like they said i have that already
[08:53] <docgnome> with no text of any sort
[08:53] <docgnome> at all
[08:53] <B0FH> is theere a reason it is not working?
[08:53] <bliss_> anybody know the chroot command is it after mounting say hda1 on tmp?
[08:53] <ice_1963> how i open is ...nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list :)
[08:54] <docgnome> which is why i'm wondering if i'm missing a package
[08:54] <crimsun_> B0FH: apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree
[08:54] <pppoe_dude> docgnome, what are you trying to list?
[08:54] <pingveno> docgnome: oops, I didn't read all of your chatting enough...
[08:54] <crimsun_> B0FH: then reinstall it via Synaptic
[08:54] <cdubya> Celestar, maybe something here? http://swik.net/HOWTO+linux    There's a link to a samba setup on Dapper there
[08:55] <docgnome> pppoe_dude: I'm trying to configure a printer with the Add Printer Wizard. But when I get to step two, where I am supposed to select a driver... there is nothing to select.
[08:55] <B0FH> crimsun_,  ok thank you my freind
[08:55] <Celestar> cdubya: checking
[08:55] <Siriuskr> Is there a way to remove packages with out removeing everything else it wants to remove. Like i just wanted to remove one application, but it wants me to remove the whole damn kde-desktop with it :(
[08:56] <pppoe_dude> docgnome, are you sure (1) printer has a valid driver installed (2) it is connected to the computer?
[08:56] <polpak> Siriuskr: kde-desktop is just a meta package
[08:56] <n30n_> Hobbsee: that was such a silly mistake
[08:56] <Hobbsee> n30n_: it happens
[08:56] <pppoe_dude> docgnome, try ls /dev/*lp*
[08:56] <polpak> Siriuskr: it won't remove your actual desktop
[08:56] <Siriuskr> polpak: im using ubuntu with kde-desktop so i need it
[08:56] <Siriuskr> polpak: o really ?
[08:56] <Hobbsee> n30n_: most people wont hang draw and quarter you for such a mistake :P
[08:57] <docgnome> pppoe_dude: Yes, is is connected, and no i have no idea if any drivers are installed. That's why I'm asking if there is some sort of package that has generic printer drivers in it
[08:57] <Siriuskr> polpak: what you mean by meta package ?
[08:57] <n30n_> Hobbsee: Heh. alot of people would.
[08:57] <Hobbsee> Siriuskr: what were you wanting to remove?
[08:57] <Siriuskr> hobbsee: some stupid kde programs
[08:57] <Hobbsee> Siriuskr: and they're forcing kubuntu-desktop to be removed?  that's okay...
[08:58] <pingveno> For me, the Epson Stylus C80 drivers are at /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/printer/Epson-Stylus_C82.xml
[08:58] <pingveno> If that's any help...
[08:58] <n30n_> Hobbsee: do you know any good flash video creators in linux? Macromidea Flash Creator Pro is what i used in windows. I don't really wanna emulate thoygh
[08:58] <pingveno> oops, C82*
[08:58] <pppoe_dude> docgnome, list is located at /var/lib/dpkg/info/foomatic-filters-ppds.list
[08:58] <Hobbsee> n30n_: no idea, sorry
[08:58] <n30n_> Hobbsee: It's cool.
[08:59] <bliss_> Matthew: ok is not there whats the line again to install it please
[08:59] <pppoe_dude> docgnome, try 'cat /var/lib/dpkg/info/foomatic-filters-ppds.list |grep -i epson' see if you get something.
[08:59] <pppoe_dude> docgnome, you should

[09:00] <triplep> do you need to change your xorg config in 606? well control alt backspace at least to HUP X
[09:01] <Hobbsee> n30n_: no idea on that either
[09:01] <cdubya> wish I could help you there....I'm still wanting to learn how to setup that kind of thing up myself....know how to do samba, but the other two I have yet to get to.
[09:01] <mada> polpak: i did reboot
[09:01] <Celestar> cdubya: if I succeed, I'll wrap up some HOWOT
[09:01] <Celestar> HOWTO
[09:01] <cdubya> Celestar, that'd be excellent
[09:01] <pppoe_dude> docgnome, i don't think theres any drivers for it in ubuntu. my ppd file doesnt show any at least
[09:01] <cdubya> much appreciated
[09:01] <triplep> mada : do a cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf|grep nvidia
[09:01] <Celestar> cdubya: "How to emulate an AD Server until Samba 4 comes along" :P
[09:01] <pingveno> I just recently upgraded to Dapper Drake, any my sound stopped working. The problem is that PCM is muted and at zero volume. Unmuting & increasing the volume fix the problem, but the configuration goes back to the defaults.
[09:02] <mada> triplep: one moment ...
[09:02] <cdubya> heh
[09:02] <pingveno> That is, zero volume & muted
[09:02] <Celestar> basically everything I need is in samba4, but it's a tad unstable
[09:02] <pingveno> How would I make my changes permanent?
[09:02] <mada> triplep: nothing
[09:03] <triplep> good, that means it's a simple fix
[09:03] <Celestar> hm .. google maps is horribly out of date at places...
[09:03] <Celestar> googleearth too
[09:03] <cdubya> Celestar, when's it scheduled out?
[09:03] <mada> triplep: do tell, please ... i am freaking out over here
[09:03] <docgnome> pppoe_dude: There seem to be plenty of drivers... but not for this printer. and I still have no idea why they don't just show up in the list.
[09:03] <neophiter> Hey, anyone know how to change the port from 5900 for Remote Desktop?
[09:03] <cdubya> man, I don't know what the deal was with the Dapper upgrade, but my Firefox is no longer broken. WOO HOO.
[09:04] <Celestar> cdubya: not that quickly I think. the AD funcionality is cool, but lots of stuff from samba 3 still missing + not very stable
[09:04] <triplep> in the device section in the xorg.conf change the driver to nvidia... make a backup of the file first too
[09:04] <Celestar> to chooses to screw up your password database here and there
[09:04] <pppoe_dude> docgnome, i think the applicable drivers show up on the list and not any driver
[09:04] <triplep> X can be a fickle mistress
[09:05] <QMario> Any more attacks?
[09:05] <cdubya> Celestar, yeah....
[09:05] <mada> triplep: ok, one moment
[09:05] <triplep> I'd paste it to yo, bu synergy is being  a POS in my mac
[09:05] <pppoe_dude> pingveno, you need to use amixer
[09:06] <Celestar> cdubya: lucky, it hasn't destory anything for me (yet)
[09:06] <triplep> mada: the value right now is probably vesa
[09:07] <pppoe_dude> pingveno, im not sure of what the easiest way would be, but first try from command line "amixer set Master 50" then restart see if its fixed
[09:07] <mada> triplep: the value was "nv"
[09:07] <Geoffrey2> can anyone here help me with the install of the Sun Java package?  I got it installed, but the post install directions in wiki don't work for me
[09:08] <triplep> i can't remember if that is the legacy package or not
[09:08] <pingveno> pppoe_dude: okay, I'll take a try asap (I have some homework open)
[09:08] <triplep> one sec while I check
[09:08] <gavagai> i have the linux 386 kernel.  if i apt-get install linux-686, will my old kernel still be an option at boot?
[09:08] <pppoe_dude> pingveno, if that doesnt fix the problem, then do "sudo cat amixer set Master 50 >> /etc/rc.local"
[09:08] <mada> triplep: brb, gonna restart X
[09:08] <cdubya> Celestar, yeah, that's definitely a good thing
[09:08] <pppoe_dude> oops
[09:08] <pppoe_dude> pingveno, sudo echo amixer set Master 50 >> /etc/rc.local
[09:08] <Hobbsee> QMario: oddly enough, no...
[09:09] <Celestar> cdubya: so the other option would be to run a real AD Server :(
[09:09] <Celestar> which is not an acceptable option
[09:09] <pingveno> It's not the master volume I'm worried about, it's PCM, not that it makes any difference.
[09:10] <Hobbsee> QMario: ah, that's why.  all non-regged users are in ubuntu-unregged
[09:10] <triplep> mada: did you get a nvidil flash before x started?
[09:10] <mada> my Nvidia works!!!
[09:11] <Surfnkid> congrats mada!
[09:11] <B1zz> when i try to run prefrence setting on firefox i get the following windows that pops up and gives me the following message:  http://pastebin.com/705977
[09:11] <mada> triplep: omfg, i owe you a million, it flashed the splash screen!!!
[09:11] <Surfnkid> super feeling
[09:11] <triplep> word, i'm pretty sure nv is legacy
[09:11] <mada> thankies Surfnkid, it is an incredible feeling
[09:11] <mada> triplep: i guess
[09:11] <cafuego> nv is open, not legacy
[09:11] <Surfnkid> yep when i got my ATI going it felt good too
[09:12] <Surfnkid> ok brb
[09:12] <cafuego> legacy is nvidia-glx-legacy :-)
[09:12] <pppoe_dude|away> pingveno, `
[09:12] <triplep> where as nvidia is the official bin blob?
[09:12] <mada> i'm on amd64, i don't know if that matters ... i have very little ubuntu experience, i am a long time debian user and i finally lost patience and just wanted things to work and here i am on ubuntu, same wonderful package management, but all the flawless desktop implementation i want
[09:12] <cafuego> triplep: yep
[09:12] <spikeb> no nv is the OSS driver
[09:12] <pppoe_dude|away> pingveno, replace Master with PCM
[09:12] <cafuego> triplep: for cards newer than geforce2.
[09:12] <pingveno> As I said, not that it makes any difference :-P
[09:13] <mada> ok, well i must go ... i vowed i would solve that before i slept ... thanks again triplep
[09:13] <anuj> hi
[09:14] <Geoffrey2> what exactly does that message "unregged" at the top od the screen mean?
[09:14] <anuj> i have reinstalled ubuntu without formatting my computer...i need to know how to access the data that was on my system
[09:15] <anuj> new installation was done in the free space.
[09:15] <n30n> ok so i got wine from syaptic and i downloaded it and short story made even shorter idk what to do with it. normaly use right click and say open with wine right?
[09:15] <pppoe_dude|away> anuj, do you know which harddisk you data was on?
[09:15] <Etheri> Geoffrey2: follow the instructions in the link it gives you to register your nick
[09:15] <pppoe_dude|away> anuj, for example, the size of the harddisk?
[09:15] <anuj> total size of the hard disk is 40gigs, with one partition
[09:15] <Geoffrey2> my nick is registered...supposedly
[09:15] <pppoe_dude|away> anuj, ubuntu probably mounted you other harddisks in /media/somewhere
[09:16] <pppoe_dude|away> anuj, oops sorry replace harddisk with partition
[09:16] <pppoe_dude|away> anuj, ok n/m then
[09:16] <Hobbsee> Geoffrey2: yeah, you're regged and identified - all unregged people are being sent to #ubuntu-unregged to register
[09:16] <pppoe_dude|away> anuj, what is the problem exactly? you can't find them or you can't access them?
[09:16] <n30n> cyphase: how do you do the * thing
[09:17] <Hobbsee> n30n: /me blah blah blah
[09:17] <cyphase> n30n, /me blah blah
[09:17] <cyphase> :)
[09:17] <Geoffrey2> Hobbsee, ok, for a while there was a message up in the channel name that said something about "unregged", and then it just vanished...
[09:17] <n30n> hm
[09:17] <cyphase> yea
[09:18] <_nano_> could anyone suggest a good bitorrent client for gnome? (the existing one is not that good)
[09:18] <n30n> _nano_: bitlord
[09:18] <pppoe_dude|away> _nano_, try bittornado
[09:18] <cyphase> _nano_: Azureus
[09:18] <Hobbsee> Geoffrey2: yeah, when you came back in, you may have been forwarded to #ubuntu-unregged befor eyou regged?
[09:18] <Hobbsee> !tell n30n about offtopic
[09:18] <bliss_> hi
[09:18] <cyphase> _nano_: it's in the repositories
[09:18] <snoops> azureous _nano_
[09:18] <n30n> _nano_: bittornado is good too
[09:18] <snoops> err azureus*
[09:18] <_nano_> cyphase: Azureus uses java right?
[09:18] <bliss_> matthew: are you in
[09:18] <n30n> Hobbsee: i was just having a moment ok??
[09:18] <snoops> yes it uses java.
[09:19] <Hobbsee> n30n: i kno w:)
[09:19] <pppoe_dude|away> _nano_, yes
[09:19] <cyphase> _nano_: yea
[09:19] <cyphase> _nano_: personally, i use the default
[09:19] <n30n> Hobbsee: i was trying out the * thing
[09:19] <Hobbsee> n30n: i dont think most of the ops will put up with much today :P
[09:19] <cyphase> it works fine for me
[09:19] <Hobbsee> n30n: it's cool :)
[09:19] <cyphase> n30n: don't over use it :)
[09:19] <n30n> _nano_: yes
[09:19] <schizoschaf> hi
[09:19] <_nano_> i would prefer a client that's made using gtk ...lesser memory usage i guess since gtk libraries are already loaded
[09:19] <pppoe_dude|away> _nano_, bittornado is nice and fast
[09:19] <bliss_> installed fluxbox with with aptitude and xserver-xorg what else needs to be done to start fluxbox?
[09:19] <n30n> _nano_: bitltornado
[09:20] <cyphase> _nano_: what's wrong with the default?
[09:20] <schizoschaf> is there #ubuntu-1 now, or may i ask about breezy here?
[09:20] <Etheri> _nano_: I'd avoid it if you can. I'm using Azureus but the sun JRE just chews up processor time and memory like nothing else
[09:20] <n30n> _nano_: exect spelled right
[09:20] <pppoe_dude|away> schizoschaf, ask
[09:20] <_nano_> cyphase, it opens different windows for different clients...
[09:20] <cyphase> _nano_: ah
[09:20] <_nano_> oops
[09:20] <_nano_> i meant torrents
[09:20] <_nano_> :P
[09:20] <_nano_> i think i'll give bitornado a shot
[09:20] <cyphase> all on one desktop
[09:20] <n30n> cyphase: i got bored of it already... lol
[09:20] <snoops> how's the bittornado interface these days? Last time I tried it, it was as shockingly terrible as bram's own client
[09:20] <schizoschaf> what might be the reason, when gnome starts in secure mode only, while in normal mode the panels stay blank?
[09:20] <n30n> snoops: its ok
[09:20] <_nano_> snoops: it was? :(
[09:21] <Snowfairy> I'm trying to load a web typing game, but, it says unable to load data, I was wondering if anyone could see if it loads properly (on ubuntu) for them.   Just not sure if it's my dial-up hampering it or what.
[09:21] <cyphase> there's already freeloader..
[09:21] <cdubya> bah, spoke too soon...my firefox is still busted....
[09:21] <cyphase> but it's kind of eh
[09:21] <cdubya> oh well
[09:21] <bliss_> DBO: awake?
[09:21] <Rabek> Does the alt install of Ubuntu include a compiler?
[09:21] <n30n> cyphase: isn't that what synaptic is? or mabye i misunderstand you
[09:22] <Rabek> For makefiles and such.
[09:22] <cyphase> n30n: that's for package management
[09:22] <_nano_> cyphase: yeah that would be awesome, a single client that could deal with everything including torrents, ftp etc
[09:22] <snoops> ahh gosh is bittornado still only one window per download?
[09:22] <schizoschaf> in which logfile would i find gnome startup errors?
[09:22] <cyphase> n30n: i'm walking general downloading. from websites, torrents, etc
[09:22] <cyphase> all in one client
[09:22] <B1zz> whats it do cdubya
[09:22] <cdubya> it hangs. big time.
[09:22] <B1zz> im having some problems with my firefox as well
[09:22] <n30n> cyphase: if you program the sourcelist it's pretty much unlimited isn't it
[09:22] <chavo> Rabek, no, but sudo apt-get install build-essential will get what you need
[09:22] <B1zz> ahhh
[09:23] <snoops> you could try torrentflux _nano_..
[09:23] <cdubya> B1zz, I've tried everything.
[09:23] <cyphase> n30n: i'm not talking about synaptic
[09:23] <cdubya> I gave up and it's ok.
[09:23] <Siriuskr> how do i use a MD5SUMS to check a cd i just burnt
[09:23] <Rabek> ... that is a long command.
[09:23] <B1zz> heheh
[09:23] <cdubya> was just hoping.......
[09:23] <n30n> cyphase:  i know
[09:23] <ome> anyone know where the wine fake c is?
[09:23] <snoops> that's a php and mysql based torrent client.. uses a web interface
[09:23] <cyphase> n30n: yea, it is
[09:23] <_nano_> snoops: thanks..would look into that :)
[09:23] <cdubya> had heard good things about ff working on dapper, but no go for me.
[09:23] <Matthewv> ome ~/.wine/drive_c/
[09:23] <cdubya> that's ok though
[09:23] <cyphase> n30n: and you could always install a standalone package without a repo
[09:23] <n30n> cyphase: yes
[09:23] <Etheri> say, there isn't a command like apt-get dependancies <makefile> or something is there?
[09:23] <n30n> My wine installation=no worky
[09:24] <B1zz> cdubya did you try the #firefox?
[09:24] <cdubya> yeah, noone would even respond. I love channels like that.
[09:24] <cdubya> heh
[09:24] <ome> what does it mean if that directory dosnt exist?
[09:24] <B1zz> heh yeah
[09:24] <B1zz> me too
[09:24] <pppoe_dude|away> cdubya, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure firefox-bin
[09:24] <B1zz> after 2 days just now i got 1 reply
[09:24] <B1zz> and now the guy stop talking
[09:24] <ome> ive installed wine already but theres no drive_c
[09:25] <n30n> Hobbsee: can you explain to me what i was doing off topic? I don't mean to be a bother
[09:25] <B1zz> look at what Matthewv said
[09:25] <Snowfairy> ome check ~/.wine/drive_c/
[09:25] <B1zz> ome look at what Matthewv said
[09:25] <Geoffrey2> I ran into the same problem in #crossover....about 20 people in the room, not a soul talking
[09:25] <cdubya> pppoe_dude|away, it's all good. ff wasn't that good for me to try to get it to work in first place. I have a browser I use and it works without any trouble, so I'm ok with it. I just tried to see if it would and it did for a very short time, then it remembered the issue apparently. :-)
[09:25] <B1zz> heheh yeah loveley huh
[09:25] <someothernick> ome, in home folder show hidden files you will see .wine
[09:25] <CarlFK> http://mirrors.cat.pdx.edu/ubuntu-iso/6.06/MD5SUMS doesn't have -desktop lines
[09:26] <Hobbsee> n30n: i didnt know if you were going to start doing heaps of random /me commands :P
[09:26] <ome> yah that drive dosnt exist for me
[09:26] <ome> ahh ok
[09:26] <pppoe_dude|away> cdubya, i use epiphany
[09:26] <cdubya> me too
[09:26] <B1zz> in the gnome file browser hit ctrl+h to see hidden files
[09:26] <cdubya> it's wicked fast
[09:26] <n30n> Hobbsee: Nah. Did you send me that ubotu message a while ago? I just realized it was there thats why i brought it up
[09:26] <Hobbsee> n30n: yeah
[09:27] <Rabek> Hmm. Disk burned, so I'm going to go try installing again. Thanks for the help.
[09:27] <CarlFK> anyone know where I can find an md5sum for ubuntu-6.06-desktop-i386.iso ?
[09:27] <cdubya> well, better call it a night, too, all. take care until the next time.....:-)
[09:27] <n30n> Hobbsee: can i ask you a offtopic question
[09:27] <B1zz> cya
[09:27] <n30n> Hobbsee: are you some kind of systems admin or somthing
[09:28] <Hobbsee> n30n: no, i'm an op
[09:28] <B1zz> close n3on :-p
[09:28] <n30n> Hobbsee: whats that mean
[09:28] <someothernick> CarlFK, http://mirror.cs.umn.edu/ubuntu-releases/6.06/MD5SUMS
[09:28] <n30n> Blzz: its a 0 no an o.
[09:28] <B1zz> ahh sorry :-p
[09:28] <Dewbie> ok I have 1xevdo conecting on boot, the prolem is it disconnects after a short time without anyuse, how do I keep it from timing out
[09:29] <n30n> Blzz: you were CLOSE though. lol
[09:29] <B1zz> hahah
[09:29] <_nano_> !wine
[09:29] <ubotu> Wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on linux.  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine for more info.
[09:29] <B1zz> the irony eh
[09:29] <CarlFK> oh crap.. the one I posted did have it
[09:29] <kimec> hi guys, can somebody help me with Samba(on kubuntu 6.06  RC)?
[09:29] <Hobbsee> n30n: means i can kick and ban people, send them elsewhere, keep people on track, etc
[09:29] <n30n> kimec: what do you need
[09:29] <Dewbie> anyone know?
[09:29] <CarlFK> never mind - wget renamed the current file for me
[09:29] <n30n> Hobbsee: how did you go about becoming that
[09:30] <B1zz> hes smart? and know everything :)
[09:30] <kimec> n30n: I have Samba set to share level and yet every time I try to browse the shares authentification is needed
[09:30] <Hobbsee> n30n: you dont want ops ;)
[09:30] <Dewbie> admiralcrunch you there?
[09:31] <AdmiralCrunch> kind of sorry man
[09:31] <Dewbie> I need t keep my dial up connection from timing out after like 30 seconds of inactivity

[09:31] <n30n> Kimec: hm. idk
[09:31] <enraGe> are there any new solutions for  xorg-server 7.1 and ati card?
[09:32] <crimsun_> B1zz: s/he.
[09:32] <B1zz> hmm?
[09:32] <AdmiralCrunch> I am sorry, but I am not exactly sure what to do as I dont have a dialup connection
[09:32] <AdmiralCrunch> so sorry but I am not sure if I can properly help
[09:32] <B1zz> what was that crimsun?
[09:32] <crimsun_> B1zz: Hobbsee is not a "he".
[09:32] <B1zz> oh i did not know that
[09:33] <n30n> I'm so lost
[09:33] <Dewbie> I just ned to find the command to stop it from timin out, and I can't even begin to know where to start looking
[09:33] <Hobbsee> B1zz: you were talking about me?  right.
[09:33] <n30n> !wine
[09:33] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, n30n
[09:33] <n30n> what is that link for the wine info
[09:33] <Dewbie> the connection comes up on load of my GUI which isa first
[09:34] <megatog615> How do I get the nvidia-settings to be applied at startup?
[09:34] <Dewbie> however it quickly die
[09:34] <Hobbsee> who deleted that wine factoid???
[09:34] <Dewbie> me.
[09:34] <n30n> why
[09:34] <Ohzie> Anybody run cedega on Ubuntu and get the xlibs problem? And more importantly, how did people solve it?
[09:34] <crimsun_> Ohzie: if you need xlibs, grab it from breezy-security and install it. It's an empty transitional package, so it's fine.
[09:35] <_nano_> n30n: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine
[09:35] <Ohzie> crimsun_: How do I grab something from breezy-security without messing with all of my synaptic settings?
[09:36] <megatog615> How do I get the nvidia-settings to be applied at startup?
[09:36] <n30n> whats the command for network console messages
[09:36] <crimsun_> Ohzie: follow the link.  [http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=all&file=pool%2Fmain%2Fx%2Fxorg%2Fxlibs_6.8.2-77.1_all.deb&md5sum=5494fd607f744a9c9441fd22b9cb0042&arch=all&type=security] 
[09:36] <Winkie> hey guys, i'm having a problem where my PC will hard crash whenever X exits, be it a logout, user switch or ctrl+alt+backspace
[09:36] <crimsun_> Ohzie: click it, and install it.
[09:36] <Winkie> using ati fglrx with all the latest updates
[09:37] <Winkie> and an aticonfig generated xorg.conf
[09:37] <Dewbie> anyone else use a pppd to get online?
[09:37] <Ohzie> crimsun_: Thank you! :D
[09:41] <Ohzie> Another question: Where can I read about Edgy?
[09:43] <ompaul> Ohzie, the irc channel #ubuntu+1 is about edgy and it is not ready for use
[09:44] <zoot_> hi everyone. trying to update a breezy box and get this error: "W: GPG error: http://ie.archive.ubuntu.com breezy-updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>".  any pointers?
[09:44] <ompaul> it being edgy
[09:44] <zoot_> that's on running: sudo apt-get update
[09:44] <zoot_> i've tried both the ie and au mirrors
[09:46] <ompaul> zoot_, I would just try it out again in a little while they could be updating atm, the other option is to # them out for an hour or so if your trying to install software and then do it again
[09:47] <twopeak> Can someone help me get Gaim with MSN (ssl support)
[09:47] <n30n> twopeak just go to accounts and add
[09:48] <zoot_> ompaul: thanks for the heads-up, though in my books this is a bug. the error should be more informative
[09:48] <twopeak> n30n it says i need ssl support... I tried removing it from Synaptic and reinstalling it, but no luck in that.
[09:48] <Snowfairy> hrm #firefox is ... dead :P
[09:48] <n30n> twopeak: oh. idk what to tell you then
[09:48] <n30n> !gaim
[09:48] <ompaul> zoot_, I hand you launchpad.net where you may actually report it as such ;-)
[09:48] <ubotu> gaim is, like, totally, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GaimHowto
[09:48] <dr3as> a little question about the command du, if i have 200 folders in a folder, and i want a list of the size of each folder.. how would i do that?
[09:49] <zoot_> ompaul: yeah, i have an account and will do so
[09:49] <Snowfairy> failing asking there, since I'm sure people here -do- use firefox, is anyone aware of an extension that makes wget the default download manager for firefox?
[09:49] <n30n> how do i run an exe with wine. i try but nothing happens.
[09:49] <ompaul> zoot_, don't hand in the data as I have only guessed, just say this message means nothing and should explain in more detail what the users options are
[09:50] <sobersabre> hi guys, aterm q. do you know how to make aterm use fonts from FreeType, in a new format like "Monospage, 12", and not the full name of the font... ?
[09:50] <dr3as> Snowfairy: flashgot i think
[09:51] <Snowfairy> dr3as I was kinda looking at that... didn't seem to sure... seems like it integrates with all sorts of front ends for wget... but, it doesn't actually do wget itself :/
[09:51] <n30n> !
[09:51] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, n30n
[09:51] <Snowfairy> which seems rather silly (I hate the wget front ends :P)
[09:51] <enraGe> dr3as, man du
[09:51] <dr3as> http://www.flashgot.net/features read here, he explain something about console dl managers
[09:52] <zoot_> ompaul: yep, agreed. i must say, i've used linux since the mid 90's and annoyances like this (typical of distros with complex dependency packaging) should REALLY be a thing of the past.
[09:52] <pumpkinpjs> totally
[09:53] <enraGe> dr3as, du -h --max-depth=1 / | sort -n -r -t" " -k1 | tail
[09:53] <pumpkinpjs> bad stuff sucks
[09:53] <enraGe>   / is the folder in which you wanna search
[09:54] <dr3as> sudo du --summarize -h /skole/tjener/home0/* did kind of what i want
[09:55] <Khamael> a friend of mine burned out a dvd for me, but I can`t mount it... "dmesg | tail" shows this: "[4295730.573000]  Unable to identify CD-ROM format." what do I do?
[09:56] <hangfire> use vlc for codecs
[09:57] <ompaul> zoot_, I won't concur with your wording, I will concur with your suggestion that the verbose answer to the person running the program should be easier to work with. as for complex. If I did not have such an objection to closed source in my make up I would love to hand you a dozen different programs for a popular platform with different needs and see what you thought of dependency hell then ;-) /me runs
[09:58] <ome> Anyone know how to fix the Steam update crash in wine?
[09:58] <Frogzoo> !tell ome about appdb
[09:59] <ome> I went there Frogzoo
[09:59] <n30n> is the room for firefox #firefox?
[09:59] <Frogzoo> Khamael: if you can't read the dvd, then it's a bad copy - get your friend to reburn but at a slower speed
[09:59] <Frogzoo> ome: then #winehq is your best bet
[09:59] <Snowfairy> !/dev/fb
[09:59] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Snowfairy
[09:59] <Dewbie> nobody has ANY idea as to why my pppd connection times out soon after connection?
[10:00] <Snowfairy> !framebuffer
[10:00] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Snowfairy
[10:00] <Hobbsee> n30n: usually at irc.mozilla.com
[10:00] <Frogzoo> Dewbie: after how long?
[10:00] <polpak> !fishing
[10:00] <dsas> n30n: you'd want to be on irc.mozilla.org I believe. It's best to check on the mozilla.org website for the correct channel.
[10:00] <ubotu> it has been said that fishing is randomly throwing !commands in the channel instead of using /msg ubotu command. Please dont fish for help. either !ask in the channel or msg ubotu < Knows Everything!> :)
[10:00] <Snowfairy> :( :(
[10:00] <Khamael> Frogzoo: ok. it has nothing to do with the size of the files? think there was a file over 2gb
[10:00] <Dewbie> about a minute
[10:00] <polpak> Snowfairy: what are you looking for?
[10:01] <Frogzoo> Dewbie: but the net works during that time - web, irc etc?
[10:01] <Dewbie> yes
[10:01] <Dewbie> perfectly
[10:01] <Snowfairy> polpak, I was playing with splashy and splashy test doesn't work it mentions something about direct framebuffer
[10:01] <Snowfairy> or rather directfb
[10:01] <n30n> Hobbsee: how do i connect to irc.mozilla.com
[10:02] <Snowfairy> which I take to mean direct framebuffer.
[10:02] <Dewbie> n30n : throw a book at it
[10:02] <Frogzoo> Dewbie: methinks you've a wrong option in your ppp settings - there's a file under /etc/ppp/peers/ that has the ppp options for that connection - find it & pastebin
[10:02] <Hobbsee> n30n: join it, like you join freenode.
[10:02] <n30n> Dewbie: Okay ill try... jk
[10:02] <Dewbie> in this case 1xevdo... right?
[10:02] <polpak> Snowfairy: oh, not familiar with splashy
[10:03] <n30n> Hobbsee: i join FreeNode by going to irc and connect
[10:03] <Dewbie> !pastebin
[10:03] <Frogzoo> Dewbie: is this a telstra service? if so, that would sound right
[10:03] <ubotu> Please do not flood the channel http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for pasting long texts it does not disrupt the channel. [webboard for Ubuntu: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269 : not an offical package] .
[10:03] <jahshua> n30n /connect irc.mozilla.com or /server irc.mozilla.com should work
[10:03] <Snowfairy> Anyways, I'm just trying to read up on using the framebuffer device to see if that educates me any :)
[10:03] <n30n> jahshua: thanks
[10:03] <jahshua> np
[10:03] <Dewbie> its not but thats where the -detach /dev/ttyUSB0 settings are
[10:04] <polpak> Snowfairy: oh, there's some info online about the framebuffer. Just do a search for linux framebuffer HOWTO or some such
[10:04] <Frogzoo> Dewbie: pastebin & i'll take a look...
[10:04] <neutrinomass> Is anybody else having problems with going backwards/fowrads in mp3s with gstreamer ?
[10:04] <Dewbie> one sec
[10:04] <Dewbie> wait
[10:04] <Dewbie> can't
[10:04] <Dewbie> no internet conection
[10:04] <Dewbie> :(
[10:04] <Snowfairy> polpak, sankies :)
[10:04] <Dewbie> this is windows
[10:04] <Dewbie> Id have to reboot to do that
[10:04] <Dewbie> DAMNIT
[10:05] <nomanches> HI! My Acrobat reader plugin for firefox is not working, what can I do to fix it?
[10:05] <zoot_> ompaul: i _only_ use oss (same aversion to closed source as you) - i only use slackware on my servers because it always does exactly what it claims to do (as do the bsd's).  anyway, this discussion (opinions included) belongs elsewhere :) after an upgrade, i'll see if the gpg error persists and report it if so.
[10:05] <ompaul> :-)
[10:06] <Frogzoo> Dewbie: & without doze, no net connection? (dillemma)
[10:06] <zoot_> ttfn
[10:06] <ompaul> zoot_, we do have the channel #ubuntu-offtopic for such fun
[10:06] <ompaul> ohh
[10:07] <Frogzoo> Dewbie: which isp is this service with? & is the modem usb or rs232 ?
[10:07] <barca> hi
[10:07] <Madpilot> hi ompaul
[10:07] <ompaul> morning maddler
[10:07] <neutrinomass> Dewbie: Why is it that you have no internet connection under Linux ? (or did I get this wrong?)
[10:07] <francesjan> hello people.... is ekiga compatible to skype client.  (i need help on this becaus we are deploying ubuntu )
[10:07] <ompaul> morning Madpilot (not my day for tabs and straying from the topic ;-))
[10:07] <Hobbsee> hey Madpilot.  nice drinking?
[10:07] <francesjan> hello people.... is ekiga compatible to skype client?  (i need help on this becaus we are deploying ubuntu )
[10:07] <barca> main anyone tell me why i can't ping my router from ubuntu?
[10:07] <Madpilot> Hobbsee, went OK ;)
[10:07] <nomanches> HI! My Acrobat reader plugin for firefox is not working, what can I do to fix it?
[10:08] <neutrinomass> francesjan: Please, don't repeat. AFAIK no, but you can use Skype on Linux (/msg ubotu skype)
[10:08] <Jimmy89> alchemist: It me again, unfortunatly those settings i tried before didnt work
[10:08] <Madpilot> francesjan, Skype uses a secret propietary protocol - it isn't compatible w/ anything but Skype, afaik
[10:08] <NET||abuse> hey all... got a quandry in need of a solution... is there a good tool for connecting to wpa aes encrypted wifi for dapper?
[10:08] <Jimmy89> alchemist: how are you going working out a fix for it?
[10:08] <neutrinomass> barca: Wireless ?
[10:08] <barca> main anyone tell me why i can't ping my router from ubuntu?
[10:08] <barca> no wireless
[10:08] <francesjan> ok ok thanks... sorry for the repeat questions.  we are on a deadline to deploy ubuntu....
[10:09] <barca> i cant ping my router only from windows
[10:10] <barca> i can ping my router only from windows
[10:10] <nomanches> HI! My Acrobat PDF reader plugin for firefox is not working, what can I do to fix it?
[10:10] <Snowfairy> hrm... what's the hotkey for taking a screenshot?
[10:10] <Snowfairy> oh.. duh
[10:10] <Snowfairy> neeeevermind :P
[10:12] <barca> any ideas for my router?
[10:12] <n30n> what do i do with gz.tar files
[10:12] <webmind> does anyone know if it's possible to connect a run action to data cd's ?
[10:12] <webmind> or cd's in general ?
[10:12] <Frogzoo> nomanches: you need: acroread acroread-plugins mozilla-acroread              you probly are missing one
[10:12] <n30n> tar.gz i mean
[10:13] <Frogzoo> webmind: well when you insert an ubuntu cd, the update manager opens, so my guess is yes
[10:13] <neutrinomass> n30n: You can open them with 'tar xzf blah.tar.gz', or with Archive Manager (file-roller in gnome)
[10:16] <dsewnr> Could sb tell me how to exit this channel ?
[10:16] <BanskuZ>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[10:16] <BanskuZ> sorry
[10:16] <dsas> n30n: It's like a zip file in windows, you can just click on it to explore it and to unextract it just drag the folder inside it to the desktop
[10:16] <NET||abuse> dsewnr, just type in /part
[10:16] <Jimmy89> anyone know how i can make my wireless save a wep key to key index #2?
[10:16] <dsewnr> NET||abuse: Thx a lot : )
[10:16] <NET||abuse> Can anyone help me on how to go about using aes on ubuntu?
[10:17] <twopeak> is there anyone in here using Gaim with msn?
[10:17] <NET||abuse> i really need to get on my home network
[10:17] <snoops> yes twopeak
[10:17] <twopeak> snoops, did you do something special to make it work? Here I can't get it to work
[10:18] <XVampireX> epiphany is better than firefox?
[10:19] <dsas> XVampireX: That comes down to personal preference. I prefer epiphany.
[10:19] <XVampireX> dsas: Reasons?
[10:19] <XVampireX> Other than personal preference
[10:19] <Frogzoo> but firefox's extensions make firefox unbeatable
[10:20] <dsewnr> : )
[10:21] <XVampireX> right
[10:21] <dsas> XVampireX: Seems to be less memory usage, more integration with the desktop, has a great bookmarking system
[10:21] <snoops> twopeak.. nope I choose msn, entered my address and password and alias..
[10:21] <snoops> then repeated a few times..
[10:21] <snoops> all connected fine
[10:21] <XVampireX> dsas: I'll use epiphany in one condition
[10:21] <deeel> XVampireX: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EpiphanyDefaultBrowserThoughts
[10:21] <Madpilot> Frogzoo, Firefox's extensions prove that FF's programmers let a half-finish product out - complete browsers don't need extensions
[10:21] <XVampireX> It needs session saver
[10:22] <XVampireX> Something I can't live without
[10:22] <snoops> Madpilot you can't expect a small team of developers to provide every possible feature a user wants
[10:22] <webmind> Frogzoo, isn't this more like an autorun function, which also needs to have something on the cd ?
[10:22] <snoops> and if they did, it's be a completely bloated piece of software
[10:22] <Frogzoo> Madpilot: on the other hand, you can look at extensions as an open api - making ff customisable & extensible
[10:22] <webmind> Frogzoo, I'd simply like to be able to run qemu on cd's
[10:22] <XVampireX> I don't use many extensions, all I need is session saver
[10:23] <snoops> the web developer extension for firefox is invaluable for me as a web developer.. most users of firefox don't want that plugin because they'll never use it
[10:23] <kholerabbi> Can I tell wine to always acess the internet a perticular way - such as through a proxy - I wan it to use tor??
[10:24] <Frogzoo> XVampireX: tab saver, sage, down them all, infocon monitor, reveal - makes for a fairly full featured ff
[10:24] <XVampireX> i need session saver on epiphany, I just heard it has it by default, I'm about to install it.
[10:25] <dsas> XVampireX: Yeah it's got session saving as far as I remember. I usually just hibernate though, but if it crashes it does recover.
[10:25] <Madpilot> XVampireX, I think it does have. It's my secondary browser, after Opera, which has session saving, and always has...
[10:26] <snoops> is there a way to make nautilus only display the first ten(or a chosen number) of letters to display for the filename in the folder icon view?
[10:27] <bhundven> is the super key the windows key?
[10:27] <chavo> bhundven, yes
[10:27] <XVampireX> winkey
[10:27] <bhundven> and if I don't have a windows/super key, what whould I use?
[10:28] <znero> Windows normaly uses full cpu-power, wich keeps the cpu pretty hot even if it isnt used. but you can solve this problem with cpuidle. Does Linux also use full cpu-power? and if so, is there also an way to disable this?
[10:28] <Frogzoo> webmind: you mean you want to be able to run executables off a mounted cd? - that's easy, you just need the right file permissions
[10:28] <bhundven> znero, cpufreq
[10:29] <znero> bhundven: thanks
[10:29] <mjr> znero, I think ubuntu installs powernowd by default, which does dynamic frequency adjustments
[10:29] <mjr> (using the cpufreq api)
[10:29] <XVampireX> How do I hibernate?
[10:30] <bhundven> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MataroSessionsWorkshops/CPUFreqModuleLoading
[10:30] <webmind> Frogzoo, no
[10:30] <Locke> so i uninstalled x-chat, and now i waht to in stall it\
[10:30] <Locke> but it doesnt show up in syna-ptic
[10:30] <webmind> Frogzoo, I want to be able to use the cd as a device for qemu (qemu -cdrom /dev/hdc or something)
[10:31] <Locke> how deo in get it gack
[10:31] <Locke> back
[10:31] <Madpilot> Locke, XChat in Dapper has been moved to Universe - do you have the Universe repo enabled?
[10:31] <znero> so you think if powernowd already is installed, cpufreq isnt needed?
[10:31] <bhundven> znero, cpufreq is part of the kernel
[10:32] <bhundven> and powernowd is probably a program that utilizes cpufreq
[10:32] <Frogzoo> webmind: yep, that's no problem
[10:32] <bhundven> idk. I don't use cpufreq,
[10:32] <koni> hi
[10:32] <bhundven> yo
[10:32] <Frogzoo> webmind: as long as you're not trying to write to it...
[10:33] <enraGe> i would use emifreq + cpufreqd
[10:33] <mindspit> Hi all!i am tryning to install and see my qcam usb camera! modprobe quickcamI get this error : WARNING: Error inserting videodev (/lib/modules/2.6.15-23-686/kernel/drivers/media/video/videodev.ko): Operation not permitted FATAL: Error inserting quickcam (/lib/modules/2.6.15-23-686/kernel/drivers/usb/media/quickcam/quickcam.ko): Operation not permitted .............................What can i do?

[10:37] <mark105> im going to upgrade from breezy to dapper now i only have console so i wont have the update manager correct?
[10:37] <NET||abuse> arrggg,,, mesa updates....
[10:37] <NET||abuse> scary..

[10:38] <DarkMageZ> NET||abuse, didn't break my 32-bit gnome ati system :)
[10:39] <scheuri> mark105: yes, you wont...but it is possible updating to dapper from CLI (console)
[10:39] <NET||abuse> :P yup... hoping not eithre :PP

[10:39] <mark105> scheuri: yes i notice that, just have to edit my sources
[10:39] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: xlsfonts, for instance.
[10:40] <scheuri> mark105: correct...replace "breezy" with "dapper" and then "sudo aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade"
[10:40] <heyHowsITgoin> crimsun_: i have tried that, they do not appear in there
[10:40] <cheti> ok i have been trying to get ubunut working and its coming up on 5 hours since i started. Frustrating but nonetheless gotta get some xgl love.. need help with wireless netowrking
[10:40] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: do they appear in a fontconfig-enabled app?
[10:40] <wept> when oh when will that ati bug be fixed?
[10:40] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: for instance, a gtk2/qt3 app
[10:40] <cheti> i loast 140 gigs of data btw .. thanks to partition amgic .. wheni was trying to merge two partitions to make place for a 2 gig swap partition.
[10:40] <cheti> nota  very good swap
[10:40] <heyHowsITgoin> crimsun_: i have opened my gnome-session and they worked in there
[10:40] <crimsun_> wept: every time you ask, the date is delayed a month
[10:40] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: then they work fine.
[10:41] <scheuri> cheti: note to yourself: BAKCUP
[10:41] <wept> crimsun_: thats the spirit.
[10:41] <scheuri> BACKUP
[10:41] <scheuri> ;)
[10:41] <heyHowsITgoin> crimsun_: but i dont know what they are called in order to them my fluxbox file for them
[10:41] <bhundven> xgl still works for me after updating mesa
[10:41] <cheti> up my back is what i got
[10:41] <cheti> :(
[10:41] <cheti> soldiering on though
[10:41] <heyHowsITgoin> crimsun_: but i dont know what they are called in order to theme* my fluxbox file for themes
[10:41] <billgates> ah this should be fun
[10:41] <mark105> scheuri: whats aptitude? i usually use apt-get
[10:41] <billgates> <-- wants to know how to work ubuntu
[10:41] <ddman> hello, I installed dapper and I have a problem with gnome network-admin. it says 'could not run su'. Anyone seen this?
[10:41] <Frogzoo> billgates: glad to see you made the switch
[10:41] <billgates> it was inevitable
[10:42] <bhundven> ddman, sudo apt-get install su
[10:42] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: they /should/ appear in xlsfonts.
[10:42] <scheuri> mark105: aptitude is another tool like apt-get...its just a bit "better" as it handeles certain dependecies better
[10:42] <ddman> su is installed
[10:42] <Frogzoo> !tell billgates about faq
[10:42] <Frogzoo> !tell billgates about docs
[10:42] <bhundven> ah cause su is not in your path
[10:42] <billgates> so ubunut rocks but ill be a convert if you guys can please tell me how to get wireless networking working ..
[10:42] <PHiSQuaRE> !tell billgates how much windows blows
[10:42] <billgates> my product does taht .. used to in xp not in vista tho
[10:42] <heyHowsITgoin> crimsun_: thats what I thought but they do not appear in there
[10:42] <Frogzoo> !tell billgates about wifi
[10:42] <Ratzilla> does anyone here have flash working with firefox?
[10:43] <scheuri> ratzilla...that should be quite easy to do...what are the problems?
[10:43] <Frogzoo> !tell billgates about resistance is useless
[10:43] <OrganStoff> Ratzilla, yes using Automatix
[10:43] <dsas> !automatix
[10:43] <billgates> !tell everyone im not resisting.. i jsut wnat access to the ent so i can use google proxy tools to bypass the company filters to look up pr0n
[10:43] <CarlFK> anyone know what happened to the pxe boot stuff?
[10:43] <crimsun_> heyHowsITgoin: the ttf fonts I have definitely appear
[10:44] <Ratzilla> scheurl: i dont think i have it installed correctly because when i go to sites such as youtube, it tells me to get the newest version
[10:44] <ddman> su is inthe path. it is only from gnome ssytem tools i get this error
[10:44] <dsas> hmm... automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. It has been reported that it may break your system, please see http://help.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation instead. For help with and discussion of Automatix please join #automatix.
[10:44] <billgates> right so i have a netgear pci 108mbps wg311t adapter
[10:44] <Madpilot> OrganStoff, please don't recommend that program
[10:44] <billgates> recognised as atho o network tools ..
[10:44] <CarlFK> it was in hoary/breezy/dapper-daily before I went on vacation, not it isn't in dapper
[10:44] <dsas> !tell Ratzilla about flash
[10:44] <OrganStoff> Madpilot, why not?
[10:44] <scheuri> Ratzilla: ah, that MIGHT be a whole other story...if they want version XY and Ubuntu comes with an older one...
[10:45] <mindspit> how can i find out what the linux kernel can see as usb devices? i want to see if it can recognize my usb pc camer
[10:45] <Madpilot> OrganStoff, it's broken far too many machines in it's day
[10:45] <Frogzoo> mindspit: lsusb
[10:45] <webmind> Frogzoo, well I generally don't write to cd's.. but I would I go about doing this ?
[10:45] <scheuri> Ratzilla: do you know other sites using flash? where you might test wether it works or not
[10:45] <n30n> What is a program that i can play WMV

[10:45] <koni> hi, anyone using ooo 2.0.2 and getting an error with macro to convert odt to pdf?
[10:46] <Ratzilla> scheuri: well, youtube works when i use konqueror..and even mozilla..but not firefox..
[10:46] <n30n> scheuri: i tried that. do i need to configure it?
[10:46] <scheuri> Ratzilla: oh, I see....funny...
[10:46] <scheuri> n30n: not as far as I know....
[10:46] <ddman> bhundven, su is in the path (which command finds it)
[10:46] <bhundven> ddman, idk
[10:46] <ddman> thanks anyway
[10:46] <Frogzoo> webmind: yes you can run executables from a cd - whether under linux or through qemu - I don't see any problem
[10:46] <n30n> i can't play ANY WMV's i tried multiples
[10:47] <scheuri> n30n: please visit wiki.ubuntu.com and searvh for RestrictedFormats
[10:47] <garryfre> !sound
[10:47] <ubotu> Help to fix issues with sound can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[10:47] <OrganStoff> lol hoary
[10:48] <n30n> scheuri: they are not restriced formats
[10:48] <ddman> 'could not run su' error in gnome-system-tools, anyone? pls?
[10:48] <scheuri> Ratzilla: cant say why that is...maybe a wrong symbolic link within firefox pointing to another version of flash
[10:48] <Frogzoo> OrganStoff: hoary is still 'supported'....
[10:48] <scheuri> n30n: under linux they definitively are...wmv is quite strict in its license
[10:48] <n30n> well. yeah.
[10:49] <n30n> scheuri: anyway the file plays but the video doesnt show up
[10:49] <scheuri> n30n: ah, you mean...its not covered within that article?
[10:49] <n30n> scheuri: it doesn't even open a screen where a video would go.
[10:49] <dsas> scheuri: wmv is covered in RestrictedFormats
[10:50] <scheuri> dsas: thanks
[10:50] <mindspit> lsusb returns --> " Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0c45:612f Microdia " --- is this how my web camera is told ?
[10:50] <scheuri> n30n: just try what the article suggests...
[10:50] <scheuri> !tell n30 about restrictedformats
[10:50] <heyHowsITgoin> does anyone ni here know why my fonts that i installed in .fonts and then ran sudo fc-cache -f -v wont show up in xlsfonts but show up in font-config apps
[10:51] <billgates> oh and via ac97 is not working .. any clues?
[10:51] <billgates> its a pretty common model i thought
[10:51] <Frogzoo> !tell heyHowsITgoin about fonts
[10:51] <billgates> dont get any sound and totem doesnt laucnh for multimedia files.. exits with sound error
[10:51] <Frogzoo> heyHowsITgoin: hope that can help
[10:51] <scheuri> billgates: mp3?
[10:52] <kameron> anyone good with LVM?
[10:52] <billgates> all drm'ed to hell
[10:52] <billgates> :)
[10:52] <billgates> no havent tried it
[10:52] <billgates> will do so
[10:52] <Frogzoo> !fixxine
[10:52] <ubotu> On Dapper, check you have all the necessary packages: dpkg -l libxine-extracodecs libdvdcss2 gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly totem-xine
[10:52] <scheuri> billgates: no, I am just asking as mp3 arent supported out of the box...
[10:52] <scheuri> ubotu speaka?????
[10:52] <ubotu> scheuri: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:53] <scheuri> a=s
[10:53] <billgates> oh i see
[10:53] <Frogzoo> billgates: you also want w32codecs
[10:53] <scheuri> ah, Frogzoo triggered the bot...jeezz...know I was amazed for a sec
[10:53] <koni> ooo 2.0.2 ok found out it is a bug, see http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=64633
[10:53] <dsas> billgates: I don't think DRM'd to hell usually will work even with the right codecs
[10:53] <viller> hi
[10:54] <viller> what apps do normal computer users need? web browser, e-mail client, instant messaging, multimedia, office? what more?
[10:54] <billgates> the synaptic package manager is a bit daunting
[10:54] <billgates> it pretty much says everything is installed
[10:55] <scheuri> viller: instant messaging?
[10:55] <billgates> how do we search for new stuff ?
[10:55] <dsas> billgates: you can use "add/remove programs" which should be in your menu
[10:55] <billgates> so it would ome under teh add programs? the synpatic online database i.e.
[10:55] <mindspit> what was your question?
[10:55] <n30n> scheuri: i did everything it said and still no help
[10:55] <viller> scheuri: gaim
[10:55] <Frogzoo> viller: open office? cd burner (k3b) shared calendar (evolution) off the top of my head
[10:55] <scheuri> n30n: sorry then
[10:56] <n30n> scheuri: well thanks anyway
[10:56] <dsas> billgates: I'm not sure what you mean
[10:56] <EmxBA> anyone? can you help me with ORINOCO PCMCIA wireless card
[10:56] <scheuri> viller: well, yes...but I wondered if that is actually needed for normal users
[10:56] <EmxBA> with usual kernel drivers it doesn't support scanning
[10:56] <EmxBA> Seveas, hi!
[10:56] <ddman> /msgchanservlist*ubuntu*
[10:57] <Frogzoo> billgates: synaptic has stuff sorted by category, & search function is extremely useful
[10:57] <EmxBA> ddman?
[10:57] <billgates> froogzoo: but ti thought synaptic was jsut to organize the stuff thats already on your system ... is there an add remove function ins ynaptic that i missed?
[10:57] <billgates> one that llows you to search for new stuff?
[10:58] <mindspit> is there a site that explains how to enable your usb web camera unter ubuntu ?
[10:58] <scheuri> mindspit: you may try wiki.ubuntu.com and search for "webcam"...
[10:59] <dsas> billgates: Synaptic is all about adding and removing. It automatically updates its database with what is available with Ubuntu  then you press in the checkbox next to the packages name
[10:59] <Hoxzer> is mindspit a girl?
[10:59] <EmxBA> anyone?
[10:59] <dsas> billgates: if the checkbox is green, it means it's already installed. If it's white, it's not.
[10:59] <Frogzoo> billgates: synaptic shows all the s/w in the repos - stuff that's installed is highlighted in the checkbox, to install addtnl s/w - click on the unmarket checkbox
[10:59] <EmxBA> does anyone have ORINOCO wireless card?
[10:59] <Frogzoo> mindspit: google
[11:00] <Frogzoo> !tell mindspit about webcam
[11:00] <billgates> oh ok thanks froogzoo
[11:00] <dsas> EmxBA: I do.
[11:00] <EmxBA> dsas: which exactly
[11:01] <francesjan> i have a problem installing hp color laserjet 2550l series
[11:02] <eyequeue> EmxBA, did you have a question?
[11:02] <francesjan> are there any helpful hearts outthere
[11:02] <webmind> Frogzoo, I don't want to run anything -from- the cd, I want to run the cd (as a bootable device with some VM softwre)
[11:02] <webmind> s/softwre/software/
[11:02] <linav> How to auto mount my secondary HD every time i reboot
[11:02] <dsas> EmxBA: Compaq W200 (usb)
[11:03] <EmxBA> eyequeue: yes, i have problems with "normal" kernel drivers for ORINOCO PCMCIA wireless card, with those drivers i can't scan
[11:03] <scheuri> linav: add it to your file called /etc/fstab
[11:03] <EmxBA> dsas: that's not orinoco card!
[11:03] <eyequeue> linav, /etc/fstab
[11:03] <dsas> EmxBA: It uses the orinoco chipset
[11:03] <linav> ok thanks., let me try that
[11:03] <EmxBA> and can you scan around?
[11:03] <garryfre> Funny, I was checking why I had no sound and I ran lspci -v and noticed it said device only available to root. All my priveleges were turned off. I got sound now. It's a wonder I had the privelege to even touch the keyboard.
[11:03] <dsas> EmxBA: Sure
[11:03] <EmxBA> i suppose it uses ornioco drivers
[11:03] <linav> do u mean to say i need to mount my HD to /etc/fstab
[11:04] <eyequeue> linav, man 5 fstab for syntax
[11:04] <dsas> EmxBA: I had to install the drivers from cvs to even get it to work though
[11:04] <scheuri> linav: no, fstab is a file that tells the system what to mount to where and how...
[11:04] <EmxBA> which cvs?
[11:04] <francesjan> are there any greatful and helpful hearts outthere?thanx in advans
[11:04] <linav> Thanks guyz, will look into it
[11:04] <EmxBA> dsas, please help me. I think i need kismet drivers for orinoco
[11:04] <francesjan> its hp color laserjet 255l series
[11:04] <dsas> EmxBA: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Device/CompaqW200 is the tutorial that I used
[11:05] <dsas> EmxBA: Don't know anything about kismet though
[11:05] <garryfre> What happens when you try to setup the printer?
[11:05] <garryfre> !printers
[11:05] <ubotu> methinks printers is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters or http://www.linuxprinting.org
[11:05] <EmxBA> dsas: i suppos it can be used for setting up real orinoco card with orinoco chipset inside
[11:05] <dsas> EmxBA: Oh, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/OrinocoKismet may be more right
[11:05] <Jimmy89> anyone know how i can make my wireless save a wep key to key index #2?
[11:05] <bcc_> how can grub boot off a software raid partition before the modules for the raid are even loaded?
[11:05] <francesjan> its recognizes the printer but still doesnt prints
[11:05] <EmxBA> dsas: tnx, i appreciate your help
[11:05] <dsas> EmxBA: No problem
[11:06] <garryfre> You mean it actually is booting off a raid partition?
[11:06] <dsas> bcc_: I didn't think it could.
[11:06] <Frogzoo> webmind: I think I understand - you want to have a VM running, eg qemu, drop in say a live cd, & have the live cd boot? I think that should work
[11:07] <bcc_> i can't see how it's possible but i found a few docs explain that it's been done
[11:07] <Frogzoo> webmind: all you should need is the 'boot -d' option - to boot off the cd
[11:07] <bcc_> where /boot is actually a raid partition
[11:07] <eyequeue> maybe the same way it used to resolve and utilize an ntp server before it even loaded the wireless drivers?
[11:07] <kenguest> !faq
[11:07] <ubotu> faq is, like, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonQuestions
[11:08] <Ng> bcc_: it can depend on what kind of raid it is - if you're just doing simple mirroring with software raid then each of the disks contains a full, valid partition that grub can just read.
[11:08] <garryfre> Hmm, maybe grub has some rudimentary raid abilities. I remember having this warning of needing to avoid that when I was compiling slackware kernels.
[11:08] <bcc_> Ng: are you sure it's not doing the striping with md?
[11:08] <Frogzoo> webmind: boot -c /dev/cdrom
[11:08] <bcc_> Ng: that would actually make sense
[11:08] <webmind> Frogzoo, yes.. I can do it from the commandline.. no problem.. but I wonder if I can set it as a menu option, when I right click the CD
[11:08] <garryfre> Or maybe the bios has some of that ability.
[11:09] <Ng> bcc_: I would think coping with striping would be a lot harder, but I'm not especially sure
[11:09] <bcc_> Ng: i know that some hardware raids do striping with raid1
[11:09] <Frogzoo> webmind: sure, create a menu entry to that effect, or just put a link on the desktop
[11:09] <bcc_> Ng: but the software raid might be just writing to two locations
[11:10] <bcc_> Ng: in any case, the docs say to use fd file system type instead of 83, even for boot.
[11:10] <webmind> Frogzoo, link on the desktop would no apear in the 'right click cd menu' and I don't know how to add items to that menu
[11:10] <bcc_> Ng: i don't see how it can make any difference if you create and ext2 system on top of it
[11:10] <glick> excuse me what do i have to install to be able to play .mov files and .wmv files?
[11:10] <bcc_> and -> an
[11:10] <garryfre> dependson the striping. If its the type were the type where the data isn't spread accross the drives but each drive is a copy of the other, it might be able to boot by just using one of the drives.
[11:11] <garryfre> !restricted formats
[11:11] <ubotu> somebody said restricted formats was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats or '!codecs'
[11:11] <Ng> garryfre: that's not striping, that's mirroring, which does work, as I said earlier :)
[11:11] <kenguest> hmm. is there anything that comes with either 5.10 or 6.06 I can use to edit mp3 files? I need to trim some leadtime off and maybe join some of them together. What's the handiest tool/application to use?
[11:11] <eyequeue> !tell glick about RestrictedFormats
[11:11] <garryfre> oh yes, mirroring. hehe
[11:11] <Frogzoo> webmind: well it's doable - maybe google
[11:11] <glick> !restricted
[11:11] <ubotu> hmm... restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats. This page's intent is to enable you to play most non-free media formats that are not DRM encoded. Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats.
[11:11] <Ng> kenguest: gnusound, or "apt-cache search sound editor"
[11:11] <Ng> kenguest: there appear to be a few :)
[11:12] <kenguest> Ng: thanks :-)
[11:12] <webmind> Frogzoo, any sugestion for search terms? because  I've got no idea where to look
[11:12] <mindspit> yes i am a girl!
[11:13] <conmiweb> hi
[11:13] <mindspit> you fraks! you are fantastic! i never enjoyed so much eith an OS!
[11:13] <conmiweb> how works ubuntu on a acbook?
[11:13] <n30n> can mpg's be played on linux
[11:13] <kenguest> n30n: yes. totem etc
[11:13] <bhundven> conmiweb, like ubuntu
[11:14] <conmiweb> xD
[11:14] <bhundven> hehe
[11:14] <conmiweb> but, is all the hardware recognized?
[11:14] <mindspit> i cant install easycam2  with "sudo apt-get install --fix-broken easycam2 "
[11:14] <mindspit> it says iot depends on gcc-3.4
[11:14] <bhundven> conmiweb, I would try searching google and see if anyone in any of the fourms are having problems with their macbooks
[11:15] <bhundven> just a suggestion
[11:15] <conmiweb> mindspit sudo aptitude insall gcc-3.4
[11:15] <conmiweb> ok thanks bhundven
[11:15] <glick> i installed tha marillat package but i still can see .wmv files
[11:15] <glick> i can only hear the sound
[11:15] <Ng> mindspit: where are you trying to install it from? I don't see easycam in the ubuntu repositories
[11:16] <conmiweb> gclick, you have to install the multimedia w32 restricted codecs
[11:16] <conmiweb> download a .deb, from debian repositories, search for it in google
[11:16] <greenman7> hello has anyone setup postfix and hylafax on Ubuntu - the setup seems to miss out bits like creating the fax user (which I have done) but i now get X-Postfix; Command died with status 255: "/usr/bin/faxmail".
[11:16] <greenman7>     Command output: Password:faxmail: Login failed: 500 'PASS ': Syntax error,
[11:16] <greenman7> when I try and send a fax through the gateway
[11:16] <glick> conmiweb, i downloaded an installed th w32codecs
[11:17] <conmiweb> :O
[11:17] <conmiweb> so?:S
[11:17] <eyequeue> mindspit, an alleged camera program that requires a compiler be installed?  and not an official package?  to me that is highly suspect, exercise due caution
[11:17] <mindspit> i added  deb http://blognux.free.fr/debian unstable main
[11:17] <mindspit> on /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:17] <glick> what else do i need?
[11:17] <eyequeue> mindspit, do you have any reason to trust those people?
[11:18] <mindspit> yes :) they are french!
[11:18] <garryfre> hehe
[11:18] <Frogzoo> webmind: you should have no problem doing this through Apps -> Accessories -> Alacarte Menu Editor -> File -> New Entry
[11:18] <mindspit> i just my cam to work!
[11:19] <eyequeue> mindspit, you appear to be installing something very suspicious, security-wise, and it is from an untrusted source
[11:19] <_ClouD_> hi, i can connect to internet with a usb modem?
[11:19] <glick> ?
[11:19] <bcc_> "You will need to enable RAID support, and then set RAID-1 support to be compiled into the kernel (it cannot be a module if you want to boot from it)"
[11:19] <Ng> eyequeue: by the looks of it, it uses gcc to build webcam drivers, but I would have thought they'd all be in the kernel anyway
[11:19] <Frogzoo> _ClouD_: possibly
[11:19] <bcc_> how can this make sense?
[11:19] <Frogzoo> !tell _ClouD_ about hardware
[11:19] <bcc_> grub would need to read the kernel image from the raid before the kernel is even loaded
[11:20] <_ClouD_> Frogzoo what i need to do it?
[11:20] <glick> anyone know how i can play my .wmv files?
[11:20] <mindspit> anyway i want to do it
[11:20] <Frogzoo> _ClouD_: it all depends if there's linux drivers for it
[11:20] <eyequeue> Ng, why would any app require a compiler ar RUNtime, nor compile time, if it doesn't carry a malicious payload?
[11:20] <eyequeue> s/nor/not/
[11:20] <scheuri> glick: have you already tried the wiki.ubuntu.com searching for restrictedformats?
[11:20] <scheuri> !tell glick about restricted
[11:21] <Ng> eyequeue: because it includes a bunch of webcam drivers, detects which one you have and compiles the driver for that camera. I'm not at all saying it's safe, but it does seem to be referred to a fair bit
[11:21] <Hoxzer> UBuntu UUUUB NUUUB uuub nuub noobtuntu ^^^wouldn't that be a good name for branch?
[11:21] <Frogzoo> eyequeue: it's a hack to resolve dependencies
[11:21] <glick> scheuri, yeah i installed all that stuff including the marillat packate
[11:21] <glick> package
[11:21] <idanimrod> clr
[11:21] <scheuri> glick...and how does it not work?
[11:21] <Frogzoo> Hoxzer: I prefer ubunut
[11:21] <eyequeue> Frogzoo, hack is the word, but i wouldn't say in the good sense myself

[11:27] <glick> damn cant i play my wmv files in ubuntu?
[11:28] <pokkie_laptop> Aleks-: can the linux pc ping the windows pc?
[11:28] <Aleks-> pd273: link ok

[11:32] <NET||abuse> why does ubuntu have php3 installed??
[11:32] <yme_> hi there,  having problems with my ubuntu dapper 64bit broadcom wifi fwcutter drivers. now gdm won't start unless I rmmod bcm59xx on recovery boot.
[11:32] <NET||abuse> i have php5/-cgi/-cli and various php5 extensions.. and then php3? :S
[11:32] <yme_> :(
[11:32] <chakra85> hello?
[11:33] <dsas> NET||abuse: It must be something you installed yourself, or that was installed long ago, php3 isn't even in dapper
[11:33] <AMCDeathKnight> I cant figure out where to place it in the command thou
[11:33] <rambo3> ranpha, can you post output of : free -m
[11:33] <NET||abuse> yme_, i had a strange on myself.. granted it was to do with my playing with Xgl. but my bcm48xx drivers were cacking up gdm
[11:33] <NET||abuse> but i just removed all the wacom interfaces that were superfluous to my setup...
[11:33] <NET||abuse> anmd re-enabled dri after this and everything seemed to settle down
[11:34] <ranpha> total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
[11:34] <ranpha> Mem:           361        323         37          0          7        174
[11:34] <ranpha> -/+ buffers/cache:        140        220
[11:34] <ranpha> Swap:            0          0          0
[11:34] <chakra85> so, i have two boxes: winxp and ubuntu. if i share a music folder on my xp box, is there anyway to stream music to ubuntu?
[11:34] <dsas> !tell ranpha about pastebin
[11:34] <chakra85> i tried mounting the shares
[11:34] <NET||abuse> it still seems odd to me that xorg.conf changes would help it boot from a bcm driver failure,, or even that bcm driver failure caused the graphics system to fail?? weirdness
[11:35] <linav> when i try to run .avi file in totem with xine engine it closes itself every time
[11:35] <linav> why is it so
[11:35] <chakra85> but when i drag a .mp3 file into xmms or rythmbox or vlc it doesn't work
[11:35] <ranpha> rambo3 here is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d15682
[11:35] <yme_> NET||abuse, hmmm.... ok, lets check it out then...
[11:36] <blinky> hey guys
[11:36] <chakra85> hi
[11:36] <Jimmy89> anyone know how to set your wep key index, to index #2?
[11:37] <Matthewv> chakra85, you could use itunes and banshee
[11:37] <blinky> can someone help me with my taskbar? I closed the bottom one, and now when i open applications they dont appear in any of the taskbars for me to scroll through
[11:38] <blinky> even if i opened another one at the bottom
[11:38] <Matthewv> blinky, what do you mean by closed? removed it?
[11:38] <chakra85> mattew, is that the only way? (i tried rythmbox--it's supposed to have daap support but it didn't work)
[11:38] <chavo> blinky, you have to add the tasklist widet to the  panel
[11:38] <rambo3> ranpha, what was swap on dev/hda4 ?
[11:38] <blinky> Matthewv,  i clicked "delete this taskbar", because i wanted to put it up the top
[11:39] <blinky> chavo, thanks
[11:39] <mooey> hi, in alot of screenshots i see people with consoles / irssi etc in what appears to be "inside" the desktop, i mean its merged with the background -- how does one go about doing this? :)
[11:39] <chavo> np
[11:39] <chavo> mooey, you use a transparent terminal and remove the window border
[11:39] <ranpha> rambo3 there is no hda4 only have hd1 hd2 and then hd5 swap
[11:39] <rambo3> ranpha type : sudo mkswap /dev/hda5 && sudo swapon /dev/hda5
[11:40] <yme_> NET||abuse well, apart for the dri tings, I already removed all the wacom stuff.
[11:41] <Matthewv> chakra85, not saying its the only way, but definitely, imho the easiest
[11:41] <rambo3> or was it:  swapon -a    , tst both
[11:41] <mooey> chavo: how can i remove the window border from a specific window? (cant see it in gterm settings)
[11:41] <Matthewv> theoretically you should be able to play those files with any media player that supports gnome-vfs
[11:41] <ranpha> thanks rambo3 got my swap back ...now hope that freeze prblem goes away
[11:41] <rambo3> good to hear
[11:42] <chavo> mooey, I'm not sure if you can do that in gnome, maybe with devilspie
[11:42] <chakra85> Matthewv, thanks, i guess i'll try that.
[11:42] <yme_> how do you rmmod a module permanently - it seems like everytime I reboot it comes back to haunt me :';(
[11:42] <chakra85> bye
[11:42] <rambo3> yme_, blacklist it
[11:43] <yme_> how do I do that?
[11:43] <ranpha> btw whole other question does anybody know why when yu install vmware everthing is root??? with flight 7 this wasn't the case and i could start the problem as a normal user
[11:44] <rambo3> add it to blacklist /etc/modrprobe.d/blacklist
[11:45] <jndisanz> hello
[11:45] <Sambrista> hi! When i access to my other linux computer from this one (both have ubuntu 6.06 installed) via nautilus+samba , it access as a guest, i mean, i am not asked for the user&pass, so i can't access my home or private folders, only those folders i set shared for everyone. Does anyone have the same problem? Can anyone help me?
[11:45] <Sukren> hi
[11:45] <Sambrista> (when i access from window, it asks me for the username and pass)

[11:49] <apokryphos> linav: check the FAQ
[11:49] <linav> apokryphos: which FAQ
[11:50] <yme_> rambo3: not sure I actually want to blacklist the broadcom drivers, the system boots all the way to root terminal (in recovery mode) with the bcm module, its just gdm that dies
[11:50] <apokryphos> linav: the one in the channel topic
[11:51] <apokryphos> linav: if you're convinced that you have the appropriate codecs set up as described there, then run totem from the terminal and see if you get any useful output
[11:51] <rambo3> yme_, thats what you asked,anyway  gdm doesnt start att all ?
[11:51] <linav> apokryphos: thank i am reading them now
[11:52] <lastnode> why isnt a spellchecker installed with OOo2?

[11:54] <anuj> i have ubuntu on my system, i was upgrading the software, but some problem occured with the x-server. so i tried to reinstall ubuntu in free space without formatting. now i need to know where to access my data that was there on my computer
[11:55] <acetech> anyone know why i am not able to execute a make command?  it is saying command not found.  i have autoconf and gmake installed.

[11:56] <acetech> Sambrista, thank you
[11:56] <jndisanz> hello
[11:56] <yme_> rambo3, yea I know, I changed my mind :P
[11:56] <yme_> gdm starts all the way to the mouse cursor and then crashes
[11:56] <delight> hi
[11:56] <rambo3> anuj, sudo fdisk -l
[11:57] <delight> yme_ did u play around with xgl and got an ati ?
[11:57] <anuj> ok
[11:57] <soundray> What's the command to get a full filename with path? Ie. I do 'cd $HOME/Desktop ; command t.svg' and command returns /home/soundray/Desktop/t.svg ?
[11:57] <rambo3> yme_, ok you can stop network if you want untill you get into gnome and start it from there
[11:57] <snotrag> hiya... xgl is a good topic... is there a link teaching how to use xgl with kde and intel 810 chipset?
[11:57] <delight> echo $HOME/Desktop
[11:58] <Sonderblade> is it possible to get ubuntu to, instead of using /etc/passwd and /etc/group for credentials, use an ldap server?
[11:58] <anuj> rambo3: but Am not able to retrive data
[11:58] <rambo3> yme_, you need to edit /etc/network/interfaces  , and remove wifi stuff what is you card named as eth0 , wlan0 , ra0 ?
[11:58] <usuario> ola
[11:59] <soundray> delight: what if there's a symbolic link in the path? Can I have that dereferenced somehow?
[11:59] <delight> snotrag xgl with kde is a no fun thing ... not really nice ... for xgl is a nice theme in the ubuntu wiki
[11:59] <snotrag> thx :)
[11:59] <yme_> delight, I play with it and have nvidia. It wasn't a problem till I tried out fwcutter with the .sh script to get the wifi working
[11:59] <yme_> rambo3, ok, I'll do that, and report back!
[12:00] <rambo3> jwe you might allso check /etc/rcX for fwcutter . and rm it
[12:00] <delight> yme_ i c ... u might want to use Networkmanager for wifi ... i know its userside but its intuitive working out of the box and wpa is easy going too ...
[12:01] <MrErnst> why did they use gnome-screensaver in ubu6?
[12:01] <MrErnst> how do i get xscreensaver instead of gnome-screensaver to run?
[12:01] <anuj> rambo3: how can i retrive data because i donot know the location where old file located
[12:01] <delight> hmmm, does somebody know what the command is gnome/ubuntu engages when u press the standby on the logout panel in gnome ?
[12:01] <rambo3> anuj, do you have working ubuntu ?
[12:02] <rambo3> or live cd
[12:02] <anuj> yes
[12:02] <yme_> delight, ya reckon? it wasn't working, which is why I started with the fwcutter
[12:02] <anuj> rambo3: yes
[12:02] <rambo3> then type in terminal sudo fdisk -l
[12:02] <soundray> delight: /etc/acpi/suspend.sh
[12:02] <delight> yme_ i c ... sorry
[12:02] <rambo3> and mount the partition or add it to fstab to get it on every boot
[12:02] <anuj> rambo3: no not live cd
[12:02] <delight> soundtray thnx
[12:03] <soundray> delight: /etc/acpi/sleep.sh rather
[12:03] <nightwalker> holas
[12:03] <delight> soundtray ... hmmm
[12:03] <delight> ok ;)
[12:03] <roker> hi all
[12:03] <yme_> grrr, still dying.
[12:03] <delight> soundtray: let me give it a try ... I need it because there is no switch in kde
[12:04] <MrErnst> ?
[12:04] <anuj> rambo3:  yes i type the command but i gave the partition detail
[12:04] <MrErnst> !screensaver
[12:04] <ubotu> MrErnst: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:05] <rambo3> anuj, ok so is it /dev/hda1 ? or what

[12:09] <burgermann> Hi. Just installed dapper drake and my USB mouse is running really slow, actually it lags quite a bit. However my touchpad and keyboard doesn't lag at all. When I unplug the usb mouse and plug it in again, the whole system lags and I need to reboot :S What's wrong?
[12:09] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: First topiclink?
[12:10] <yme_> rambo3, well, the blacklisting managed to get it booting.
[12:10] <yme_> now to fix wifi... :@
[12:10] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: yes, in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[12:11] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: if you could pastebin lspci, that would be helpful
[12:11] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: I'll check, thanks.
[12:11] <Hobbsee> yme_: what's the wifi problem?
, it sound like an irq conflict
[12:11] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: That could be a problem, considering that the computer is not online.
[12:11] <soundray> Snowfairy: wouldn't just saving all .deb files in /var/cache/apt/archives solve your problem?
[12:11] <anuj> rambo3, where to paste the output of fdisk
[12:12] <amr2> hi which gnome ver is on ubuntu
[12:12] <rambo3> !tell anuj about paste
[12:12] <burgermann> acetech, oh. Is there any way I can manage the irq settings?
[12:12] <soundray> Snowfairy: if you copy them back to that location, and they haven't changed in the repository, they won't be downloaded again.
[12:12] <acetech> burgermann, the best place to manage irq setting is in your bios
[12:12] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: okay, you can just run the command, and then tell me what it says - maybe something on the line of ethernet controller: blah blah blah or something
[12:12] <yme_> Hobbsee, 64bit, broadcom wifi 43xx, fwcutter borked my gdm, I blacklisted bcm43xx so now gdm works, but no wifi...
[12:12] <Hobbsee> anuj: please dont paste in here
[12:12] <Hobbsee> !broadcom
[12:12] <Snowfairy> soundray, I honestly don't know, that's why I'm asking if such a think is possible.  I just moved my home directory to another drive, realizing that meant I could format and reinstall ubuntu without losing user settings.
[12:12] <ubotu> well, broadcom is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25683 for a guide to setting up Broadcom network cards
[12:12] <Hobbsee> yme_: see ^
[12:13] <Snowfairy> soundray, okies :)  I believe that's doable :)
[12:13] <kemik> hmm
[12:13] <kemik> !uninstall
[12:13] <ubotu> kemik: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:13] <soundray> Snowfairy: you can run 'sudo apt-get autoclean' to make sure only packages that are actually installed are in the cache.
[12:13] <kemik> !remove ubuntu
[12:13] <ubotu> kemik: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:13] <burgermann> acetech, this laptop doesn't offer any bios to set things. At least not that I know of
[12:13] <apokryphos> !botabuse
[12:13] <ubotu> You can play with me in /msg or #debian-bots without being banned.
[12:13] <rambo3> yme_, dont forget to remove driver from blacklist , and remove that .sh script you installed
[12:13] <yme_> yea, saw that already. It's a guide for hoary 32bit using ndiswrapper....
[12:13] <acetech> burgerman, every pc should have a bios
[12:14] <soundray> kemik: what are you trying to do?
[12:14] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: Apperently Ubuntu dont support any CNet drivers, eaven though is the RaLink chipset
[12:14] <ompaul> kemik, install something else on the machine that will overwrite it
[12:14] <rambo3> yme_, are you using dhcp ?
[12:14] <yme_> yep
[12:14] <anuj> rambo3, i have pasted th output
[12:14] <kemik> ompaul: im dualbooting and dont wanna wreck my windows system
[12:14] <rambo3> anuj, on what page ?
[12:14] <Snowfairy> soundray, hm, that does seem like it'd work just fine, thanks! :)
[12:14] <kemik> so all i have todo is remove the linux entries from grub and remove the ubuntu partitions i guess
[12:14] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: which ralink chipset?  and just because a card isnt listed there, it doesnt mean it's not supported - it means it hasnt been tested
[12:15] <burgermann> acetech, yeh, but when the laptop boots, it doesn't show any setup key to enter the bios.. oddly enough
[12:15] <soundray> kemik: no, grub depends on files in your ubuntu root and won't work once you removed that.
[12:15] <kemik> or maybe i'll just install a fresh dapper copy over this crap of an update
[12:15] <Gullstad> RT2500 Chipset I think
[12:16] <kemik> soundray: mmh, i know so a fixmbr from the XP cd would be needed, but i dont have one at this place
[12:16] <soundray> kemik: that sounds like a better idea altogether.
[12:16] <dr3as> kemik: boot with windows cd, and choose repair console, then wirte fixboot or fixmbr.. dosnt rember
[12:16] <ompaul> kemik, so read how to remove grub http://www.ntcompatible.com/How_to_remove_GRUB_loader_t28242.html and use something like partition magic
[12:16] <anuj> rambo3, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15684
[12:16] <rambo3> i have my rt2561 wifi working just fine with wpa
[12:16] <kemik> "upgrading" just blows in linuc
[12:16] <kemik> linux
[12:16] <kemik> it never "just works" :/
[12:16] <kbrooks> hm
[12:16] <kbrooks> i have a queestion
[12:16] <acetech> burgerman, i would tap away at the del, f1, f3, f11, and f12 key when it is starting
[12:16] <kbrooks> i have a queestion
[12:16] <ompaul> kemik, it depends on where you get your software, mine "just works" 4 machines here that were upgraded
[12:17] <soundray> kemik: that's not exactly true -- you probably didn't follow upgrade advice...
[12:17] <acetech> maybe even f2
[12:17] <ompaul> kemik, one had flight 5 install on it
[12:17] <acetech> burgerman, also take a look at your manual
[12:17] <burgermann> acetech I'll try that. It's just odd because I had no trouble in 5.10 which I ran about an hour ago
[12:17] <kbrooks> how do i do a fresh reinstall from JUST a iso? i have NO blank cds
[12:17] <ompaul> kemik, if you have k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop installed  it should be sweet enough
[12:17] <apokryphos> kbrooks: /msg ubotu install
[12:17] <Lukian> how can I limit the width of a gnome panel, or more specifically stop it spanning both my monitors?
[12:17] <kemik> ompaul / soundray i followed the upgrade advice
[12:17] <kbrooks> apokryphos: ^^^
[12:18] <kemik> however it fu**ed my keyboard settings
[12:18] <kbrooks> apokryphos: look at what i said above
[12:18] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: if that's the case, and lspci shows it as a ralink rt2500 chipset, then see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/RalinkRT2500
[12:18] <kemik> and couldnt update nfs-common
[12:18] <burgermann> btw this Ubuntu Device Database, what exactly does that do?
[12:18] <soundray> kemik: both should be reasonably easy to fix.
[12:18] <rambo3> anuj, you installed new ubuntu over old one  , so i dont tnik you can get back your data
[12:18] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: lspci shows whitch chipset cards are using?
[12:18] <acetech> burgermann, only a thought of what it sounds like to me... i am not sure what else would cause it
[12:18] <kbrooks> apokryphos: well?
[12:18] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: yes
[12:18] <apokryphos> kbrooks: you got this problem by trying to upgrade? Did you upgrade properly?
[12:19] <burgermann> acetech: thx anyway :)
[12:19] <kemik> soundray: i guess, but a fresh install will do the trick and i dont have to bother with googling for an eternity
[12:19] <kbrooks> apokryphos: that isnt me, that is kemik
[12:19] <rambo3> !tell anuj about fstab
[12:19] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: I'll look into it. You probly will get me back here whining in a while.
[12:19] <apokryphos> whoop
[12:20] <anuj> rambo3, give me the command again. how to get what you want.
[12:20] <kbrooks> apokryphos: Did you LOOK at what  I said above? does the advice in !install apply to me
[12:20] <kbrooks> !install
[12:20] <ubotu> Installing Ubuntu? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation Installing software on Ubuntu? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingSoftware
[12:20] <apokryphos> kbrooks: I can't SEE what you said ABOVE
[12:20] <kemik> apokryphos: yes it just happened after the upgrade
[12:20] <apokryphos> kbrooks: you asked how to install from just the iso, that link helps you.
[12:20] <soundray> kbrooks: just look at that page, will you?
[12:21] <kemik> and it really sucks when @@@ doesnt work :X
[12:21] <kbrooks> soundray: i am
[12:21] <apokryphos> kemik: a stable -> stable upgrade on ubuntu is fully supported and really should just work
[12:21] <kemik> apokryphos: well, tell my computer that :/
[12:21] <rambo3> anuj read this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountPartitions?highlight=%28mount%29
[12:21] <apokryphos> kemik: my guess is that you didn't upgrade properly. How did you upgrade?
[12:21] <kemik> apt-get update
[12:21] <kemik> apt-get upgrade
[12:21] <kbrooks> soundray: i dont see the link?
[12:21] <kemik> sort of... did it a few weeks ago
[12:22] <apokryphos> kemik: did you have ubuntu-desktop installed?
[12:22] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: RT2400 / RT2460
[12:22] <kemik> never removed it ;)
[12:22] <kemik> (and yes, it was installed)
[12:22] <apokryphos> kemik: are you sure?
[12:22] <sexcopter8000m> hi, i've noticed that when i get updates through the update manager thing, the "changes" tab is always empty. are other people getting this?
[12:22] <apokryphos> kemik: many times it can be removed without you knowing it at all.
[12:22] <kemik> mmmh
[12:22] <anuj> thanks rambo3, am not sure, what has happened, i guess i wont be able to access the data.
[12:23] <kemik> well perhaps i'll just try to solve the xkb issue
[12:23] <anuj> am not able to fix it
[12:23] <kemik> or i'll reinstall
[12:23] <apokryphos> kemik: this is why it's so important that you read the guide to upgrading when you do
[12:23] <apokryphos> it's in the faq
[12:23] <kemik> apokryphos: i did read it on the wiki i think
[12:23] <kbrooks> kemik: you did not READ it
[12:24] <Hobbsee> Gullstad: check google - it seems to have some info on that chipset
[12:24] <kbrooks> kemik: you  did apt-get update, but not "apt-get dist-upgrade"
[12:24] <Jimmy89> how do i configure my wep key index, i need to get this working...
[12:24] <kbrooks> kemik: "apt-get upgrade" updates your system
[12:25] <apokryphos> kbrooks: and, just as importantly, you *have* to check that you have one of the respective metapackages installed
[12:25] <Gullstad> Hobbsee: I'll try the Ubuntu.Wiki =)
[12:25] <kbrooks> apokryphos: talking to me or kemik?
[12:25] <apokryphos> either
[12:25] <kemik> kbrooks: i followed the section "Upgrading by changing sources and the command line"
[12:25] <kbrooks> kemik: link please
[12:25] <kemik> kbrooks: and typed in " sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[12:26] <kemik> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades
[12:26] <apokryphos> kemik: but you didn't check that you had ubuntu-desktop installed first?
[12:26] <pigo> hi
[12:26] <apokryphos> kemik: which it explicitly mentions
[12:27] <kemik> lemme just download the iso and i'll reboot in ubuntu
[12:27] <apokryphos> so far 100% of upgrade problems I'd put down to not doing that. Should make that bold.
[12:28] <kemik> and maybe you could help me resolve the xbk issue
[12:28] <kbrooks> kemik: no
[12:28] <kbrooks> kemik: stop
[12:28] <kemik> apokryphos: well it was installed because if it isnt, other packages wouldnt try to remove it, right?
[12:28] <kemik> kbrooks: stop what ? :X downlaoding ?
[12:28] <apokryphos> kemik: they would
[12:29] <kemik> apokryphos: and apt-get would warn me???
[12:29] <kbrooks> kemik: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:29] <apokryphos> kemik: yes, but it's not always obvious
[12:29] <kbrooks> kemik: do this.
[12:29] <burgermann> Does anyone know if there is a Gnome alternativ to yaKuake?
[12:29] <kemik> kbrooks: doit now again?
[12:29] <kbrooks> kemik: yes
[12:29] <kemik> bbiab need to boot into ubuntu
[12:30] <brett_> hey guys, is there any way to align chat tabs to the left in kopete?
[12:30] <brett_> instead of top or bottom
[12:34] <kemik> here goes.. lets see if it works and i'll have to repent
[12:35] <brett_> can anyone help me with kopete?
[12:36] <Hobbsee> brett_: what about it?
[12:36] <Graig> last night my computer crashed, and i set it up again, what filesystem is the default for ubuntu? ext2 or 3?
[12:36] <dsas> Graig: ext3
[12:36] <Graig> ok, it looks like my old partition was ext2 for some reason.  i wonder if that's why it crashed?
[12:36] <brett_> hobbsee, i closed some toolbars, and i dont know how to get them back, i was also wondering if there is any way to make the tabs on the side instead of the top or bottom
[12:37] <Hobbsee> brett_: try ctrl+m
[12:37] <Graig> the amazing thing, it took about 7 minutes to reinstall. i was shocked lol.
[12:37] <Hobbsee> brett_: and/or settings, toolbars
[12:38] <Graig> and about 10-15 minutes to install about 30 programs.
[12:38] <rus> hi. I've got a hanging samba mount. Anyway to get it to come back to life?
[12:38] <brett_> Hobbsee, thanks. ctrl M should just about do it
[12:39] <brett_> Hobbsee, any idea about the tabs?
[12:40] <Hobbsee> brett_: none at all
[12:40] <fdelacruz> hi guys
[12:41] <fdelacruz> can I install snort on my ubuntu? or should I say does snort possible for my ubuntu
[12:41] <lukas_> hix
[12:42] <lukas_> update from breezy to dapper is a nightmare
[12:42] <Gullstad> Skal ut og jobbe. Snakkes :)
[12:42] <Ng> lukas_: it shouldn't be. what's up with it?
[12:42] <Ng> fdelacruz: yep, it's in universe
[12:42] <lukas_> Ng, i have some problems with tzdata
[12:42] <lukas_> libc6
[12:43] <lukas_> but it's fine now :)
[12:43] <lukas_> Gnome Dapper is great
[12:43] <fdelacruz> Ng universe in apt source list? but my connection is behind a proxy
[12:43] <fdelacruz> how can I use apt on a proxy network
[12:44] <eyequeue> set http_proxy
[12:44] <sudomania4> is there a command that will show me the host and port of my computer?
[12:46] <stephan__> hey
[12:46] <sudomania4> hey
[12:46] <sudomania4> is there a command that will show me the host and port of my computer?
[12:46] <EmxBA> join #edubuntu-bosnia
[12:46] <ompaul> sudomania4, there are 65536 ports on every computer, what they get used for depends, as for the host try "ifconfig"
[12:46] <Ng> fdelacruz: yes. apt can be configured to use a proxy, add this to /etc/apt/apt.conf: Acquire::http::Proxy "http://user:pass@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port/";
[12:46] <manuel_> Hi to everybody
[12:46] <manuel_> My problem: I have at home a very slow network connection. I want to install new package using "Gnome App Install". I upgrate the list of the packages and libs using the repositories but I can't download the packages and libs I need because my slow connection. So I have to download them from the windows system of my university, record a DVD and keep it to my home to upgrade my ubunto system. I have two questions: 1-is this procedure p
[12:46] <manuel_> ossible?
[12:46] <manuel_> 2-where I can download an ISO of all (or a lot) packages and libs to record the DVD and use it like repoitory?
[12:46] <manuel_> Please help me! thank you to all!
[12:46] <stephan__> im on dapper and dapper is always hidden and screwing up
[12:47] <stephan__> wow
[12:47] <Ng> manuel_: if you use synaptic it can generate a download script that will grab all of the required dependencies
[12:47] <sudomania4> ompaul, thans, im trying to get gmpc to connect
[12:47] <fdelacruz> ng k thanks i will try that
[12:47] <Ng> manuel_: admittedly that script won't work on windows unless you install cygwin, but it will at least give you a list of URLs to grab
[12:47] <stephan__> im on dapper and trying to use azuereus but it wont pop up, it always stays hidden
[12:48] <kemik> aynoen know why i get : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15685
[12:48] <manuel_> Ng: can you give me more details? I am newbe
[12:48] <kemik> apokryphos:  , kbrooks , that's my 'issue'
[12:49] <Ng> manuel_: load up synaptic, find all the packages you want to install, right click on them and mark them for installation, then in the File menu is an option to create a download script. you can then take that to a windows machine, download all the URLs it contains, put them on a disc and take them back to the ubuntu machine and install them all (sudo dpkg -i /media/cdrom/*.deb  most likely)
[12:49] <apokryphos> kemik: you're going to have to be more descriptive. Where/when do you get that?
[12:49] <stephan__> can someone help me to get azuerurs to work
[12:50] <kemik> apokryphos:  just when i've logged into X a dialog with that sutff pop-up
[12:50] <kemik> apokryphos:   also i get that error when trying to configure my keyboard layout
[12:50] <desijays> when ever i try to use the apt command to download something from the internet it say "SUDO: APT: COMMAND NOT FOUND". what am i doing wrong?
[12:50] <manuel_> Ng: I will try...thank you
[12:50] <cyphase> manuel_: look into apt-zip
[12:51] <apokryphos> kemik: do you get that if you make a new user? Do you know what produces it? Is that straight after a dist-upgrade?
[12:51] <kemik> apokryphos:  yup, after upgrade
[12:51] <manuel_> cyphase: sorry, I don't understand where I have to look
[12:51] <kemik> apokryphos:  not tried creating a new user..
[12:51] <cyphase> manuel_: just do a search
[12:51] <apokryphos> desijays: apt, as practically all UNIX/Linux commands, is case-sensitive. APT is different to apt.
[12:51] <Mewshi> hi
[12:52] <apokryphos> kemik: does it stop you using your computer, or is it just a warning? Does it remove functionality?
[12:52] <void^> ..and there is no apt, just apt-get, apt-cache, etc
[12:52] <apokryphos> hi Mewshi
[12:52] <kemik> apokryphos:  it removes my keyboardlayout so i cant use swedish characters and i cant find the "AT" sign f.ex
[12:52] <dmoyne> hello ! ; is there a way to load a Ubuntu source of a sotfware though apt-get for compilation like it was possible with mandrake ?
[12:52] <manuel_> cyphase: please explain better
[12:52] <desijays> apokryphos: i tried "sudo apt -get install gnomebaker" it asks for the password and then says "sudo: apt: command not found"
[12:53] <apokryphos> kemik: does it work in a tty? Or when you go into X failsafe?
[12:53] <cyphase> manuel_: search the web for apt-zip
[12:53] <fiveiron> hey is there an updated way to get xgl installed in ubuntu?
[12:53] <cyphase> in a search engine
[12:53] <kemik> apokryphos:  the upgrade of nfs.common doesnt affect me at all (except a pesky warning) so thats no bother
[12:53] <apokryphos> desijays: it should be sudo apt-get install
[12:53] <fdelacruz> Ng I don't have apt.con instead apt.conf.d
[12:53] <manuel_> cyphase: ok then?
[12:53] <desijays> no space between apt and -get?
[12:53] <watergla1s> hi, i'm tryign to set up ssh server on my machine.. i follow the directions in the ubuntuguide under:  How to assign Hostname to local machine with dynamic IP using free DynDNS service and I have ssh setup but when i try to ssh into my machine, i get this error: ssh: connect to host nuky.homelinux.org port 22: Connection refused, can anyone help me understand where i have gone wrong with the setting here?
[12:53] <kemik> apokryphos:  doesnt work in the gnome.terminals ;)
[12:53] <apokryphos> desijays: also, you should use synaptic for installing packages. It'll be clearer.
[12:53] <apokryphos> desijays: that's right
[12:53] <kemik> i'll try the failsafe reboot option
[12:53] <kemik> bbiab
[12:54] <apokryphos> kemik: no, not reboot :P
[12:54] <cyphase> manuel_: it's what you're looking for, to install packages on a computer without net access
[12:54] <apokryphos> kemik: just ctrl+alt+f1
[12:54] <apokryphos> kemik: and alt+f7 to get back
[12:54] <desijays> thanks for the help apokryphos. the problem with synaptic is that is very extensive and i don't know which ones to choose..
[12:54] <kemik> apokryphos:  doesnt work :X
[12:54] <desijays> i should read some of the documents that specify the windows equivalents in linux
[12:54] <apokryphos> desijays: well, when installing gnomebaker, in synaptic select the...... gnomebaker package ;-)
[12:55] <dsas> desijays: You could use add/remove programs instead
[12:55] <apokryphos> desijays: check the FAQ for links on how to use Synaptic. It's good to use it :)
[12:55] <manuel_> cyphase: what is apt-zip? an archive? an application? I download it and then? sorry for the question but I am new
[12:55] <apokryphos> kemik: well, let me know how it goes with a new user.
[12:55] <stephan__> can someone help me to get azuerurs to work in dapper
[12:55] <cyphase> manuel_: did you look it up?
[12:56] <apokryphos> stephan__: /msg ubotu azureus
[12:56] <desijays> yea i'll do that now.. TY :)
[12:56] <wiking> hmm for some reason Xvnc is not working anymore since i've upgraded to dapper, anyone had this error as well?
[12:57] <manuel_> cyphase: I am looking for apt-zip... I need time :(
[12:57] <desijays> 1 more thing... i tried using gaim for my yahoo account. but i don't have an option to be invisible, like i do in yahoo messenger. am i overlooking something or is this feature really missing in gaim?
[12:58] <kemik> oh my
[12:58] <kemik> found the solution on launchpad
[12:58] <kemik> have to remove a lien in xorg.conf
[12:59] <manuel_> cyphase: I am downloading apt-zip...Can you explain,if you have time, in few words how I have to use it?
[12:59] <kemik> and.... it works..  @!
[12:59] <kemik>  too ;)
[12:59] <cyphase> manuel_: i don't know, i've never used it
[12:59] <cyphase> manuel_: i just know what it's for
[12:59] <kemik> apokryphos:  thx for the help anyway
[12:59] <rambo3>  allways wirked for me
[01:00] <manuel_> cyphase: thank you the same
[01:00] <cyphase> manuel_: your welcome
[01:00] <jenda> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a Travelmate 240. The LiveCD (Desktop CD) is extremely slow - it's been loading step 1 of the install for 30 minutes or more. Could this be caused by the speed of the CDROM drive only? Or must there be other causes?
[01:00] <apokryphos> kemik: if it works then it means that you have some settings screwed up in your old ~
[01:00] <kemik> had to remline "Option		"XkbVariant"	"nodelay""
[01:01] <apokryphos> ohh
[01:01] <kemik> apokryphos:  i can assure you, i never touched the keyboardsettings in xorg before
[01:01] <kbrooks> desijays: yes you have overlooked it
[01:01] <apokryphos> ok, cool :)
[01:01] <kemik> i have messed with the gfx- tho
[01:01] <desijays> so how do i make my self invisible kbrooks? i checked the options and everything...
[01:01] <kbrooks> i have a question
[01:01] <kbrooks> desijays: i'mn not sure
[01:02] <kemik> desijays:  invisible? isnt that superhuman powers possessed only by The Invisible Man!?
[01:02] <kbrooks> desijays: but i know its there for all protocols
[01:02] <kbrooks> kemik: be serious
[01:02] <kemik> sry
[01:02] <Krieger> doesnt support the ATI Driver OpenGL with the 9600 Card???
[01:02] <kbrooks> kemik: he wants to hide himself from users on yahoo IM
[01:02] <kemik> is there a page (i know i should google before asking this) for Ubuntu laptop compatibilty ?
[01:02] <kbrooks> !tell Krieger about ati
[01:02] <desijays> if thats the case, there must be an option for being invisible... but i can't find it anywhere.. even though the protocols may allow it...
[01:03] <kbrooks> !laptop
[01:03] <ubotu> laptop is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops or http://www.linux-laptop.net/ or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam, or tuxmobil.org
[01:03] <kbrooks> !tell kemik about laptop
[01:03] <rambo3> kemik, ask ubotu
[01:03] <Krieger> kbrooks, doesnt really work huh?
[01:03] <kbrooks> Krieger: try ati, not radeon
[01:03] <desijays> i'm thinking i'll have to tinker with the terminal to make the invisible thing work... !!!
[01:03] <Krieger> kbrooks, i installed xorg-driver-fglrx
[01:03] <kbrooks> desijays: you wont
[01:04] <kbrooks> desijays: let me FIND it.
[01:04] <stephan__> apokrypho, i got it kinda working...but i dont see a system tray icon in fluxbox or gnome
[01:04] <kemik> lets see if i can get the CDT to play in eclipse now
[01:04] <kbrooks> desijays: are y you scared of the terminal
[01:05] <void^> stephan__: use the version at http://azureus.sourceforge.net/index_CVS.php
[01:05] <Frogzoo> !tell kemik about laptops
[01:05] <Frogzoo> !tell kemik about laptop
[01:05] <kbrooks> desijays: it's in gaim 2, at least thats what i have
[01:05] <kemik> Frogzoo:  it's ok ;) already got it
[01:05] <ubuntu> fast question: i'm using a live ubuntu to try to rescue a partition and i want to install testdisk. it's not in the normal repository but in universe. what does it mean? how can i install it?
[01:05] <kemik> roger that rabbit and so on
[01:05] <kbrooks> desijays: a custom installed package
[01:06] <rohan> suppose i have both debian and a debian based distro (ubuntu in this case) installed, how do i setup grub that both the distro's kernels are identified and updated automatically ? right now i am setting one distros grub outside the debconf area and updating it manually . .any more elegant solution ?
[01:07] <Jimmy89> how can i configure my wep key index number, i need to save a wep key to index #2??
[01:07] <rambo3> ubuntu chroot into mounted partition and find /etc/apt/sources.list , uncomment the "#" lines for  multi and univers
[01:07] <a_l_e> ok, thanks rambo3!
[01:07] <bernier>  hi, i followed a tut to compile the new linux kernel and at the end while creating the .deb I got that error: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/708279
[01:07] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, what do you use to configure your security? i'm on an aes network,, havn't managed to connect yet? on hardwire for now
[01:08] <Jimmy89> what do you mean?
[01:08] <NET||abuse> well, i've looked at the tools on gnome and there's only an option for wep
[01:09] <Jimmy89> yeah, i need to somehow enter a wep key into index#2
[01:09] <NET||abuse> have you got the basic web key in there already though? defaulting to #1
[01:09] <Jimmy89> yes
[01:09] <alewyn> I'm a new user to ubuntu and need some help.
[01:09] <NET||abuse> if so tell me how? and i'll see maybe i can help
[01:10] <Matthewv> anyone know where the fspot database is stored? so i can back it up?
[01:10] <NET||abuse> also might help me get on track for my aes key
[01:10] <desijays> what do you mean by custom kbrooks? u mean i wont find it in the synaptic archives?
[01:10] <Jimmy89> what i mean is i have tried just putting the key#2, where it says wep key
[01:10] <Jimmy89> i don't know how to make it use index #2
[01:10] <Frogzoo> rohan: a shared /boot should be able to keep grub updated automatically, but you will have problems when each OS gives a kernel the same name
[01:10] <a_l_e> rambo3: i get uncommented the line about the universe repostiry, but the was no line for multi. now apt-get tells me that there is no repository for ppc
[01:10] <rambo3> locate *.db
[01:10] <a_l_e> rambo3: any idea?
[01:11] <rambo3> its backports
[01:11] <mp3guy> I need help with a 3gp file, I need to extract and convert the amr/samr audio track to mp3 or ogg or something, how can I do this?
[01:11] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, ahh, are you using the default internet properties applet?
[01:11] <Jimmy89> yeah network-admin or what ever the default is
[01:11] <rohan> Frogzoo: but then both would be listed as either ubuntu or debian, right ? I mean, if ubuntu's grub is in /boot, all kernels will be displayed as Ubuntu ?
[01:11] <Jimmy89> just the "networking" thing
[01:11] <rambo3> a_l_e, you can create your own line like this : deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[01:12] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, i think that tool is very basic, perhaps too basic for our needs
[01:12] <NET||abuse> gimme a moment
[01:12] <rambo3> a_l_e, it will add all ports needed
[01:13] <Jimmy89> net abuse: so you need to find a way to enter a wep key of a different index as well do you?
[01:13] <a_l_e> rambo3: W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper-backports/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_dapper-backports_main_binary-powerpc_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)

[01:13] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, not quite.. i need wpa encryption
[01:13] <NET||abuse> the aes type
[01:13] <Frogzoo> rohan: maybe you could chain from a grub which gives the ubuntu or debian option, to grub with options for each OS?
[01:14] <Jimmy89> net abuse: i think network-manager can do that
[01:14] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, try sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[01:14] <void^> network-manager-gnome can setup wpa with a gui (but it's not very flexible imo)
[01:14] <NET||abuse> it goes into your applications->internet folder
[01:14] <bernier>  hi, i followed a tut to compile the new linux kernel and at the end while creating the .deb I got that error: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/708279
[01:15] <Frogzoo> rohan: another alternative would be to modify update-grub
[01:15] <Vego> Can I run Ubuntu Dapper on a PII 266 MHz/64 MB RAM PC?
[01:15] <a_l_e> rambo3: i fear that "apt-get update" was the missing step :-)
[01:15] <rohan> Frogzoo: both of them too complicated :D
[01:15] <rambo3> a_l_e, firt add / at the end of .com  = .com/  just look at the line i gave you and fix it
[01:15] <Jimmy89> void: Do you know of a way to change the key# that the wep uses?
[01:15] <Kaja> Vego, it is possible.
[01:15] <rambo3> .com/ubuntu/
[01:15] <Frogzoo> Vego: most likely yes, but very slowly & you sure don't have enough ram for gnome
[01:16] <void^> Jimmy89: no, i never use wep
[01:16] <Kaja> Vego, you need to install some alternative desktop environment if you want to use one.
[01:16] <Jimmy89> net abuse: I got wifi-radar, and i cannot see how i can change the index number of the wep key
[01:16] <DarkMageZ> Vego, Xubuntu might be a better bet for that machine
[01:16] <kbrooks> vego: xubuntu
[01:16] <Jimmy89> void: yeah, i would prefer not to, but school has a wep protected wifi setup, and they store the key in key#2
[01:16] <NET||abuse> void^, what do you use for encryption?
[01:17] <Vego> Thanks. I'll take a look av xubuntu.
[01:17] <a_l_e> it's downloading the package list... and i could install testdisk ... now, the heavy part: will it rescue the data on the partition?
[01:17] <void^> NET||abuse: wpa/aes
[01:17] <NET||abuse> yeh, that's what  i have on my home network..
[01:17] <MistaED> vego: i managed to get ubuntu running on that spec with 128mb ram, if you can get more ram for it
[01:17] <NET||abuse> what do you use to configure it?
[01:17] <jenda> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a Travelmate 240. The LiveCD (Desktop CD) is extremely slow - it's been loading step 1 of the install for 30 minutes or more. Could this be caused by the speed of the CDROM drive only? Or must there be other causes?
[01:17] <void^> NET||abuse: wpa_supplicant
[01:17] <MistaED> vego: (gnome ubuntu i mean)
[01:17] <rambo3> a_l_e, what went wrong , is it boot or what?
[01:17] <NET||abuse> void^, umm, just apt-get install wpa_supplicant
[01:17] <NET||abuse> ??
[01:17] <ROBOd> hello people
[01:18] <void^> NET||abuse: should be installed by default, just need to configure it
[01:18] <ROBOd> which is the package for dpkg-reconfigure that asks me for monitor stuff?
[01:18] <ROBOd> i bought a new monitor now
[01:18] <NET||abuse> void^, you try wpagui at all?
[01:18] <apokryphos> ROBOd: xserver-xorg
[01:18] <rambo3> xserver-xorg
[01:18] <ROBOd> thanks
[01:18] <ewan123> hrllo
[01:18] <ewan123> i need some help
[01:19] <ewan123> hello
[01:19] <Jimmy89> hmmm, how to change the wep key index number is not easy to find
[01:19] <a_l_e> rambo3: i had to hard reboot; the system didn't restart. i had the bad idea to start in osx. it tried to rescue something and destroyed everything. now i have an empty root partition and a huge "lost+found" folder. (the other partitions are almost ok)
[01:19] <void^> NET||abuse: i just tried network-manager and didn't like it so i configured it by hand in /etc/network/interfaces and those scripts
[01:20] <NET||abuse> void^, aww. pants.. would like a nice simple to use version,,, but if i have to hack scripts.. so be it.
[01:20] <Jimmy89> so far ubuntu has been superior to standard xp stuff, but the standard wireless driver for xp has a little scroll down box asking you what index# the key is in
[01:20] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, try using wpa_gui on your machine, it has wep key selector on it.
[01:21] <rambo3> a_l_e, ok i think it will install new system with you old files in lost+found .
[01:21] <Jimmy89> ah
[01:21] <Jimmy89> nice
[01:21] <Jimmy89> apt-get install ?
[01:21] <NET||abuse> yeh
[01:21] <Jimmy89> cool
[01:21] <Jimmy89> ill give that shot
[01:21] <NET||abuse> oh, the package is wpagui but the executable is wpa_gui
[01:21] <Jimmy89> ok
[01:21] <ROBOd> rambo3 apokryphos i'd just like reconfiguration of the monitor, excluding the keyboard and the video
[01:21] <NET||abuse> let me know how you get on,,
[01:21] <void^> NET||abuse: sadly, wpa configuration isn't well documented in ubuntu.. read /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.modes
[01:22] <apokryphos> ROBOd: unfortunately to use that wizard you'll have to go through the whole thing
[01:22] <rambo3> ROBOd, just press enter till you get there
[01:22] <NET||abuse> void^, ahh, reading,,,,,,, rock n roll
[01:22] <scheuri> hi all
[01:22] <Jimmy89> ok
[01:22] <Jimmy89> i did the apt-get install wpagui
[01:22] <Jimmy89> where does it go to
[01:23] <rambo3> in debian menu
[01:23] <a_l_e> rambo3: most of the data weren't on the root partition... but the mails were :-( ... one thing i will try is to sort the lost+found files and then search through them for important mails and config files.
[01:23] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, there's no icon, you have to sudo wpa_gui &
[01:23] <a_l_e> rambo3: somebody pointed me to a script which should be able to make this sort by file type.
[01:24] <rambo3> locate *.filetype
[01:24] <rambo3> you need to sudo updatedb   first
[01:24] <IvanDragomilov> I can't use lm-sensors....when i type sudo /etc/init.d/lm-sensors start ----------->* Setting sensors limits... [fail] ..... what i have to do?????
[01:25] <Jimmy89> hmmm
[01:25] <Jimmy89> it said couldnt get information from wpa_supplicant
[01:25] <Ng> IvanDragomilov: have you run sensors-detect?
[01:25] <leethal> how do I restart apache? Just installed it in dapper with synaptic, and it doesn't seem like apachectl came bundled
[01:25] <apokryphos> leethal: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[01:25] <Ng> leethal: sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart   (or maybe apache2, which might be why you can't find apachectl ;)
[01:25] <benyx> Hi! how i can add application in the System | Administration menu  in gnome?
[01:26] <IvanDragomilov> Ng, No i2c device files found. Use prog/mkdev/mkdev.sh to create them.
[01:26] <IvanDragomilov> could u help me to do this
[01:26] <fearme> is there a way to update your library on rythmbox music player onto you ipod?
[01:26] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, hmm, not sure, it seems wpa_supplicant is the wpa driver,, so maybe you don't need that much... but you need to get your wpa configured..
[01:26] <rambo3> its : /dev/MKDEV/
[01:26] <pinkisntwell> i try to load windows with grub and I get "filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7". what is this?
[01:27] <leethal> thans, apokryphos and ng!
[01:27] <Jimmy89> well with wpagui, at least i could tell it which key to put the wep into
[01:27] <fearme> is there a way to update your library on rythmbox music player onto you ipod?
[01:27] <Jimmy89> so that is something
[01:27] <fearme> your*
[01:27] <rambo3> pinkisntwell, paste you sudo fdisk -l && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:27] <Jimmy89> however it was key - #0,#1,#2,#3, compared to #1,#2,#3,#4
[01:27] <Jimmy89> do you think #1 is the same as #2?
[01:27] <Ng> IvanDragomilov: hmm, that's a good point. I'm not entirely sure how this works on ubuntu
[01:27] <rambo3> pinkisntwell, and not in the channel use paster
[01:28] <fearme> is there a way to update your library on rythmbox music player onto your ipod?
[01:28] <IvanDragomilov> Ng, thx
[01:28] <NET||abuse> Jimmy89, hmm, i'd imagine the offset would match up.. weird huh
[01:29] <Jimmy89> indeed
[01:29] <rambo3> pinkisntwell you need sudo for cat too : paste you sudo fdisk -l && sudo cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:30] <NET||abuse> haha, i seem to have forgotten  astep,,, i havnt got my wlan0 interface running yet llo
[01:30] <Jimmy89> hmmm
[01:31] <Jimmy89> mine still says failed to open control connection to wpa_supplicant
[01:31] <waky> nkkh
[01:31] <Jimmy89> any ideas there
[01:31] <rambo3> Jimmy89, crapy program ?
[01:31] <frankske> hi all
[01:32] <benyx> Hi! how i can add application in the System | Administration menu  in gnome?
[01:32] <kiddo> hi im currently trying to install drivers for mu wusb11v4 card with ndiswrapper. all been going ok however i have just stumbled into a problem as the drivers are 32bit and im in 64 bit is there a way around this
[01:32] <frankske> quick question: how does one run the base-configuration after a debootstrap?
[01:32] <pinkisntwell> rambo3: i've been through this before, the computer with the problem is not the one i'm using right now, the grub.conf contains the standard root(hd0,1) makaeactive chainloader +1 stuff
[01:32] <rambo3> !tell benyx about alacarte
[01:32] <Jimmy89> do i have to configure wpa_supplicant first?
[01:32] <scheuri> kiddo: no, I am afraid there isnt
[01:33] <kiddo> scheuri: dammit are there many cards at all supported under 64bit?
[01:33] <rambo3> pinkisntwell, thats wrong if c: is first partition it should be root (hd0,0)
[01:33] <Jimmy89> rambo3: Do you know any other program where i can set my wep key index numbers?
[01:33] <rambo3> Jimmy89, network-manager
[01:34] <Jimmy89> rambo3: Where can you set the key index number though?
[01:34] <Jimmy89> eg wep key#2
[01:34] <scheuri> kiddo: dont know...I am with 32bit all the time...there are still some issues with 64bit
[01:34] <frankske> anyone that knows what /usr/sbin/base-config got replaced with?
[01:35] <fdelacruz> guys where can I find the apt.conf
[01:35] <kiddo> scheuri: hmm seems i made a mistake going for 64 bit. is there a easy way to downgread to 32 bit?
[01:35] <Ng> fdelacruz: /etc/apt/
[01:36] <Ng> fdelacruz: it may not already exist, in which case just create it
[01:36] <rambo3> Jimmy89, there are those options in  dapper network-manager
[01:36] <Jimmy89> rambo3: where?
[01:36] <scheuri> kiddo: I doubt so...but I cant really say...I am afraid I'd have to suggest you to reinstall the whole Ubuntu
[01:36] <Jimmy89> rambo3: ive been looking for like 2 days now
[01:36] <fdelacruz> Ng inside apt.conf.d?
[01:36] <pinkisntwell> rambo3: windows is installed on secondary master so i believe (hd1,0) is correct
[01:36] <Ng> fdelacruz: no, just edit /etc/apt/apt.conf
[01:37] <fdelacruz> Ng k thanks
[01:37] <kiddo> scheuri: thats not sucha  problem its a fresh install anyway tis just a pain downloading the disc in 32bit again
[01:38] <rambo3> Jimmy89, did you install network-manager ?
[01:38] <fdelacruz> Ng Im sorry can you give me the file that I will insert on apt.conf for proxy
[01:38] <rambo3> pinkisntwell, then i dont know . that grub error line looks like its searching on wrong parition ,
[01:38] <linuxboyfriend> hi
[01:38] <linuxboyfriend> hi all
[01:39] <Jimmy89> rambo3: I had it installed
[01:39] <Jimmy89> rambo3: I could not see any option for telling it which key# it should be in
[01:39] <waky> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[01:39] <waky> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[01:39] <waky> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[01:39] <Ng> !ops
[01:39] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[01:40] <apokryphos> hm, Ubugtu should be handling things like that
[01:40] <Ng> Jimmy89: by the looks of it, wpasupplicant has configuration options for setting the key index
[01:40] <Ng> Jimmy89: is it for a wep key?
[01:40] <aeon17x> waly ran out of breath lol
[01:40] <Hobbsee> apokryphos: Seveas will have your head if you do
[01:41] <Jimmy89> Ng: Yes
[01:41] <chrisjw> hey, does anyone know how to enable mp3s on ubuntu dapper
[01:41] <Jimmy89> Ng: im leaning towards wpasupplicant, with wpagui to be nicer to config
[01:41] <scheuri> !tell chris about restricted
[01:41] <bernier> !mp3
[01:41] <ubotu> I heard mp3 is a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[01:41] <scheuri> !tell chrisjw  about restricted
[01:41] <Ng> Jimmy89: I'm looking at an example wpa_supplicant.conf and it contains an option called "wep_tx_keyidx" which takes a value of 0-3 (which sounds right since there are usually 4 wep key slots)
[01:41] <chrisjw> thx hun!!!
[01:41] <scheuri> hun?
[01:42] <Jimmy89> Ng: You assume 0 would be 1 in every other case?
[01:42] <Jimmy89> Ng: cause normally it starts at 1 and goes to 4
[01:42] <Ng> Jimmy89: yeah
[01:42] <Jimmy89> Ng: can you please tell me how to config my wpa_supplicant, because i am confused and annoyed atm.
[01:44] <Ng> Jimmy89: do oyu have a wpa_supplicant.conf yet?
[01:44] <Jimmy89> Ng: no
[01:44] <Jimmy89> Ng: Is it possible just to use wpa_gui?, or does wpa_supplicant need to be configed first?
[01:45] <fdelacruz> Ng can you tell me again how can I use apt-get on a proxy settings
[01:45] <Ng> Jimmy89: to be honest I'm not sure. Have a go with wpa_gui and see if it can at least make some of the config file for you
[01:45] <Ng> Jimmy89: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15689 shows a very simple little snippet from the example .conf file that shows multiple keys and selecting one
[01:46] <dooglus> fdelacruz: easiest way: add "export html_proxy=http://user:pass@hist:port/" to ~/.xprofile and re-login
[01:46] <Ng> Jimmy89: i imagine that google and a wpa_supplicant howto can be more useful than me
[01:46] <chrisjw> are there any mp3 players that are similar to winamp for ubuntu?
[01:46] <njan> chrisjw, xmms
[01:46] <scheuri> chrisjw: xmms
[01:46] <dooglus> fdelacruz: that's http_proxy, sorry, not html_proxy
[01:46] <dsas> chrisjw: beep media player
[01:46] <njan> chrisjw, beep-media-player also
[01:46] <scheuri> !tell chrisjw about xmms
[01:46] <Ng> fdelacruz: Acquire::http::Proxy "http://user:pass@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port/";  if you don't want to use dooglus's method
[01:46] <fdelacruz> dooglus Ng thanks
[01:46] <Jimmy89> Ng: it comes up with errors saying can not connect to wpa_supplicant
[01:47] <znero> could someone explain a noob how to save the whole root+home partitions as image on dvd, so that i can put them back on hd after i formated it?
[01:48] <Pennywise83> Hi!
[01:48] <Hoxzer> hi
[01:48] <IvanDragomilov> http://www.bitstorm.org/gates/creamedgates.mpg
[01:48] <chrisjw> does xmms let you add files that are mounted to another drive?
[01:48] <chrisjw> I've mounted an ntfs partition
[01:49] <znero> because my hd looks like this: [windows|freespace|root|ntfs|free|home] 
[01:49] <Pennywise83> Does anyone can help me restoring grub? Now I'm running the live-cd...
[01:49] <Hoxzer> chrisjw: yes...
[01:49] <chrisjw> Pennywise83, does your CD not have a repair option?
[01:49] <Toma-> znero, theres some exellent backup utilities available
[01:49] <scheuri> znero: maybe mondo (rescue) is your friend...:)
[01:49] <Pennywise83> Chri[s] : I don't know, it is the Dapper 6.06 installation cd
[01:50] <scheuri> !tell scheuri about mondo
[01:50] <Hoxzer> Pennywise83: did u instal WindowsXP and it overtooked boot?
[01:50] <alchemist> Jimmy89: just getting ready to head to the office. catch me in about 2 hours ;)
[01:50] <scheuri> znero: www.mondorescue.org
[01:50] <Jimmy89> ah alchemist
[01:50] <znero> scheuri: thanks, il look for it
[01:50] <Jimmy89> i believe wpagui allows you to select which key index the wep key can go in
[01:51] <Jimmy89> just a matter of configing wpasupplicant first
[01:51] <Pennywise83> Hoxzer: exactly... I've found a little how-to on ubuntuforums but it doesn't work
[01:51] <Seveas> Jimmy89, wpagui is obsolete, network-manage is much better
[01:51] <Jimmy89> sevas: apart from the fact that you cant select a key index for the wep key
[01:51] <chrisjw> Pennywise83, I did exactly the same as you yesterday
[01:51] <Jimmy89> seveas: if you can please tell me how
[01:52] <chrisjw> Pennywise83, I messed up my master boot record and couldn't get to winxp
[01:52] <Pennywise83> Chri[s] : I dont want to reinstall my ubuntu one more time... now i would try to restore grub ;) (sorry for my english, dudes)
[01:52] <chrisjw> Pennywise83, well if you're running the live CD
[01:52] <ice-t> is it possible to make suspend2ram||disk with the fglrx-drivers in the repos
[01:52] <Pennywise83> chrisjw: I can boot only in windows xp because it have rewritten the mbr
[01:53] <fdelacruz> dooglus where can I find the .xprofile
[01:53] <chrisjw> ohh
[01:53] <chrisjw> well ok
[01:53] <jarmo> The 6. version falls back to text mode boot screen while 5.10 did not. When boot is complete the X window starts as it should, so this is just cosmetic. Anyone else noticed this?
[01:53] <chrisjw> /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:53] <chrisjw> do that on your live CD
[01:54] <MoxJet> hi
[01:54] <chrisjw> then you can modify the options there
[01:54] <Pennywise83> chris, do what? edit ?
[01:54] <chrisjw> yeah gedit
[01:54] <MoxJet> is there a keyboard shortcut to select workarea?
[01:54] <chrisjw> there's instructions in the file
[01:55] <_jason> MoxJet: ctrl-alt-<arrow keys> or set up a new one in system > preferences > keyboardshortcuts
[01:55] <Pennywise83> chris, there isn't any grub dir into boot... maybe i have to mount my root partition and make a chroot ?
[01:55] <Hackmo> Hey all I have a bit of a problem
[01:56] <MoxJet> thanks _jason
[01:56] <MoxJet> alt+ctrl+arrows will do fine
[01:56] <jarmo> And while this Inspiron 7000 did suspend more or less perfectly with 5.10 it will lock up hard with 6. Any idea why?
[01:56] <Hackmo> I have inserted a second hdd into my machine but I don't know how to access it
[01:57] <chrisjw> yes probably
[01:57] <chrisjw> butthat's where your grub files are
[01:57] <Yoe> I just noticed that my package nbd (which is in ubuntu main) is at version 1:2.8.3-1 in dapper.
[01:57] <chrisjw> I'm very new to the whole linux thing
[01:57] <Pennywise83> chrisjw: thanks, now I'm going to reboot my system...
[01:57] <Yoe> that version contains an ugly bug which may have it produce gigabytes worth of syslog messages in just a few minutes (depending on the speed of the hardware)
[01:57] <Pennywise83> see you later! :)
[01:57] <chrisjw> bye
[01:57] <Yoe> well, s/may/will/
[01:58] <chrisjw> xmms is really cool
[01:58] <chrisjw> thanks
[01:58] <Yoe> is there any chance of getting an update through to dapper?
[01:58] <Yoe> (occasionally, edgy also contains the buggy version; however, I hope that's going to be updated any time soon?)
[01:58] <scheuri> yoe...best would be to add a bug at launchpad and inform the devs
[01:59] <Yoe> scheuri: wouldn't that require me to have a launchpad account?
[01:59] <gnomefreak> Yoe: ITS BEING WORKED ON
[01:59] <Yoe> gnomefreak: err, no need to shout, really :)
[01:59] <scheuri> Yoe: yes, it doesn require you to have an account...but that is easy to get...
[01:59] <gnomefreak> sorry
[01:59] <gnomefreak> i hit it by mistake
[01:59] <Yoe> okay, no sweat then :)
[01:59] <fdelacruz> guys thank see you tom
[02:00] <MoxJet> How can I enable popup messages when a contact signs on in Gaim messenger?
[02:00] <fdelacruz> dooglas Ng thanks
[02:00] <MoxJet> like the ones from rhythmbox
[02:00] <_jason> MoxJet: gaim-guifications
[02:00] <Yoe> scheuri: I prefer not to do that. I've got way too many accounts already, I'll just forget otherwise.
[02:00] <chrisjw> where can I get skins for XMMS please?
[02:01] <MoxJet> _jason: Is that a apt-get?
[02:01] <_jason> chrisjw: gnome-look.org has some
[02:01] <_jason> MoxJet: yes
[02:01] <scheuri> Yoe: well, your choice...but AFAIK is Launchpad for bugreports on ubuntu...
[02:01] <MoxJet> _jason: thanks, I'll give it a try
[02:01] <Yoe> scheuri: point being, I'd appreciate it if there were a way for me as a DD to inform Ubuntu people that "hey, you've got a problem there"
[02:02] <Yoe> one which doesn't require me to jump through hoops
[02:02] <scheuri> Yoe: well, I am not a DD, so...I cant really help you there...:)
[02:02] <chrisjw> thanks _jason
[02:02] <bernier> what's the command the delete files trough konsole?
[02:02] <scheuri> Yoe: but if it is in main-repo...you should have that possibility
[02:03] <mlunzena> Hello!
[02:03] <Yoe> scheuri: that's what I mean. I can understand them not caring as much about universe, but since they've put it in main...
[02:03] <mlunzena> I have a question about the gdm.
[02:04] <scheuri> Yoe: well, as I said...I am not the right person to speak to...maybe a polite mail to one or some Ubuntu-Devs might help
[02:04] <mlunzena> I built wmii-3 from sources.
[02:04] <_jason> bernier: rm
[02:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell bernier about cli
[02:04] <Yoe> scheuri: I'll just post something on my blog (which is aggregated on Planet Debian). Hopefully that'll result in something.
[02:04] <mlunzena> But it is not shown in the sessions dialog in gdm.
[02:04] <mlunzena> How do I get it there?
[02:04] <scheuri> Yoe: frankly...blogs are in my opinionen not the right place for such things...its public..people get offended...
[02:05] <Yoe> scheuri: I don't easily offend people :)
[02:05] <Yoe> scheuri: and I intend to write this in a totally non-confrontational way.
[02:05] <scheuri> Yoe: I did NOT say that...:)...people GET offended sometime
[02:06] <scheuri> Yoe: well, it is up to you...for sure...I'd just thought that a mail before blogging might help
[02:06] <Yoe> scheuri: sure. IME, there's not much difference there between mail and blog posts, though.
[02:06] <chrisjw> how do I install a theme for xmms?
[02:06] <chrisjw> :$
[02:06] <mlunzena> No one's using wmii?
[02:06] <scheuri> Yoe: well, I think there still is...but as I said...it is up to you...:)
[02:06] <chrisjw> it's a tar.bz2 or something
[02:07] <id_sonic> chrisjw download theme package and ucompse them to ~/.xmms/theme
[02:07] <chrisjw> ucompse?
[02:08] <MetaMorfoziS> why onl 2.4 kernel-headers and images in the repos?
[02:08] <MetaMorfoziS> i want to install vmware, and it needs....
[02:08] <scheuri> MetaMorfoziS: ? there are surely 2.6 images and headers available
[02:08] <MetaMorfoziS> The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.
[02:08] <znero> Please specify your DVD drive's /dev entry <-How do i do this? My DvD-Burner is meant.
[02:08] <gnomefreak> MetaMorfoziS: your running a 2.6 kernel
[02:08] <MetaMorfoziS> for me not... i have the source-o-matic repo
[02:08] <scheuri> MetaMorfoziS: try "aptitude search headers" on the CLI
[02:08] <scheuri> MetaMorfoziS: ah, sorry...dont know about special repos...my bad
[02:09] <zeroshot> when i try to install anything from synaptic i get an error of dpkg-split returned error exit status 126 im running xbuntu x86_64 inside of a vmware server anyone experienced this problem ?
[02:09] <gnomefreak> MetaMorfoziS: that wont matter they have nothing to do with the kernel you are running
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> hm lol
[02:09] <gnomefreak> MetaMorfoziS: uname -r will give you a 2.6 output
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> apt-get install kernel-headers`uname -r`
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> works
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> but
[02:09] <HellTriX> does the ubuntu server install load up to the same desktop as the desktop install release? (I need a LAMP server but also a windows replacement desktop on the same machine).
[02:09] <MetaMorfoziS> in synaptic i not found only 2.4 headers:D
[02:10] <chrisjw> hm
[02:10] <MetaMorfoziS> so from cli it works, thx.)
[02:10] <id_sonic> chrisjw extract
[02:10] <scheuri> HellTriX: wihtin Server "Edition" there are NO desktop systems included (its a server!)
[02:10] <gnomefreak> MetaMorfoziS: you shouldnt have you may see some (not sure why) but you might the 2.6 headers are there
[02:10] <HellTriX> meh :\
[02:10] <scheuri> HellTriX: you may download and install them from the internet thought
[02:11] <scheuri> -t
[02:11] <id_sonic> chrisjw extract compressed file
[02:11] <HellTriX> ya prolly will do that, tnx.
[02:11] <scheuri> HellTriX: well, servers do not have any desktop stuff on it...
[02:11] <kdean06> Does anyone know how to make ddclient report my WAN address to zoneedit, as opposed to my LAN ip?
[02:12] <HellTriX> which you think would be better, gettin desktop version and adding LAMP or getting server version and adding a gui?
[02:12] <scheuri> kdean06: on their website (the one from ddclient) it is described how to make ddclient to get the IP (WAN) from a website and transmit it
[02:13] <scheuri> HellTriX: are you asking me? well then I need to say, NEITHER...a server does NOT have any kind of desktop stuff on it...but that is my philosophy
[02:13] <chrisjw> hm
[02:13] <HellTriX> heh.. I run windows xp with apache now :)
[02:13] <chrisjw> xmms is sounding a little distorted compared to the movie player
[02:14] <chrisjw> is this because of the settings?
output plugin as ALSA?
[02:14] <id_sonic> chrisjw output plugin as sed is a good idea, I think :)
[02:15] <scheuri> !tell scheuri about rm
[02:15] <chrisjw> hehehe!!

[02:19] <xice> NET||abuse, yeah the locking function on gnome doesnt work since i installed xgl
[02:19] <NET||abuse> oh.. hmm, i'll look
[02:19] <MonsieurBon> what do I have to do that this does not fail? "mount -o loop -t hfsplus updater.iso ./tmp/" I get "wrong fs type, bad option..." so far...
[02:19] <virgilio> kebabab: just copy them to .fonts in your home directory
[02:19] <Samuli^> MonsieurBon, take away the hfsplus
[02:19] <NET||abuse> xice, works fine for me
better install, so that everyone gets the fonts
[02:19] <xice> NET||abuse,  ok thanks, i wonder whats going on
[02:19] <NET||abuse> no issue.
[02:20] <NET||abuse> not sure.
[02:20] <NET||abuse> is yours a high end or low end machine.
[02:20] <NET||abuse> my one is pretty low end
[02:20] <Samuli^> MonsieurBon, try iso9660 instead.. or take away the -t too and try that.
[02:20] <NET||abuse> ati
[02:20] <xice> NET||abuse, umm... no ;o
[02:20] <fredrik> all programs is using cleartype function exept my amsn, how do i make it use cleartype ?
[02:20] <xice> i mean high ;p
[02:20] <NET||abuse> driver?
[02:20] <xice> 'nvidia'
[02:20] <virgilio> fredrik: you need to compile tcl/tk with antialias support
[02:20] <NET||abuse> kay, i'm usin "ati" rather than fglrx
[02:21] <NET||abuse> card isn't supported.. but i think it's actualy working better
[02:21] <fredrik> okaj...
[02:21] <xice> lol
[02:21] <MonsieurBon> Samuli^: now i get "you must specify the filesystem type"
[02:21] <Samuli^> MonsieurBon, did you try iso9660?
[02:22] <kebabab> thanks guys...
[02:22] <scheuri> kebabab: very welcome
[02:22] <fredrik> virgilio: that hard ?
[02:22] <MonsieurBon> Samuli^: yep, that gave the "wrong fs type"-error again
[02:22] <NET||abuse> woah, glxgears is workin like poop here
[02:22] <NET||abuse> it says it's gettin 65-70 fps.. but..... ummmm, no.. it's like 1 frame every 2 seconds
[02:22] <ap> someone have put to work an monitor by xinerama ?
[02:22] <virgilio> fredrik: just to find the source and compile them with antialiasing support
[02:22] <ap> a second monitor with the extend desktop ?
[02:23] <scheuri> ap: are you using nvidia-drivers or -card?
[02:23] <virgilio> i don't know if ubuntu binary packages had this option enabled. I don't use tcl/tk apps oftenly
[02:23] <fredrik> virgilio: do you know if there is a site with a guide or something ?
[02:23] <ap>  scheuri : worst intel extreme
[02:23] <ap> scheuri : shared memory 64 mb
[02:23] <scheuri> ap: Oh I see...I managed to have double monitor with nvidia...but not intel, sorry
[02:24] <Miravlix> I'm an oldtimer so I used reportbug to report bugs, but as I've found out you have to use L-Pad now, my problem is where the 'heck' do you type in bug reports in that thing.
[02:24] <virgilio> fredrik: http://www.amsn.ws/node/6
[02:24] <ap> scheuri : but after put the configuration you only need to plug the second monitor ?
[02:24] <virgilio> fredrik: it's in spanish, but it's quite easy to understand
[02:24] <gnomefreak> !bug
[02:24] <ubotu> bugs are reported to https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs

[02:25] <Miravlix> Okay that helps, but where is the link to that on the page?
[02:25] <ap> scheuri : thanks
[02:25] <Samuli^> MonsieurBon, don't know if mount supports .iso then

[02:35] <Krieger> chrisjw, disable distortion^^
[02:35] <chrisjw> huh?
[02:35] <Krieger> kane77, a irc client like iirc you can use on the command line or in the shell
[02:35] <chrisjw> are you taking the piss out of me?
[02:36] <Krieger> chrisjw, no, look for a plugin, maybe there is one... im not joking
[02:36] <chrisjw> oh ok :)
[02:36] <Miravlix> Someone tell l-pad that Mysql-server-5.0 need /etc/cron.daily/mysql-server  filename=`tail -n $KEEP_BINARY_LOGS $tmp | head -n 1'` changed to filename=`tail -n $KEEP_BINARY_LOGS $tmp | head -n 1 | awk '{print $1}'` to deal with mysql 5.0?) returning filename + number and not just filename, because it's apparently beyond my abilities to work out how l-pad works.
[02:36] <kane77> Krieger, oh thanx... i wanted to ask what are some text based irc...

[02:45] <Fatal_2> hi guys.. i've googled a bit before asking this.. but does anybody know how to get sound working for dapper when running in vmware on top of winxp?
[02:45] <SpiderMonkey> not yet
[02:45] <drcode> after I put xfce4 I got customize
[02:45] <drcode> How I can fix it to defualt , like in ubuntu 5./
[02:45] <drcode> ?
[02:45] <jinho326> hi i just installed xubuntu, but the desktop doesnt load and I'm stuck with a black screen- any ideas how I can fix this?
[02:46] <SpiderMonkey> thats the thing, i have the card working fine under normal ubuntu
[02:46] <darmou> I recently upgraded to dapper and now  I have no sound, how can a reactivate my audio device?
[02:46] <ighost> does anyone know how to join some tables then sort the results of the joined table by one of its columns?
[02:46] <SpiderMonkey> but last time i tried to get it working in ubuntu64 everything went wrong
[02:46] <SpiderMonkey> so i gave up on ubuntu64 for a little while
[02:46] <drcode> any idea how I can bring all menu in xfce4 inside ubuntu like in ubuntu 5.x?
[02:46] <chrisjw> well thanks for the help I must be going now
[02:46] <chrisjw> bye

[02:47] <jinho326> whats the command to install a different video driver?
[02:48] <jinho326> anyone?
[02:48] <JaZy84> when it gets to mounting root filesystem on the 6.06 install it stops for a bit, then i get a screen saying timed out waiting for DMA on hda (which my drive should be sda) any ideas?
[02:48] <scheuri> jinho326: most video drivers are included with the X-Server...no need to download and "install" them
[02:48] <scheuri> jinho326: however, you need to tell X-Server which one to use by editing the xorg.conf
[02:48] <jinho326> scheuri: what I mean is that my desktop isnt even loading
[02:49] <jinho326> and i think its because of a problem w/ the ATI driver the OS initially chooses
[02:49] <scheuri> jinho326: if it is not loading there is something wrong with your configurations...are you stuck on the command line?
[02:49] <jinho326> Iv had this problem for a while
[02:49] <jinho326> scheuri: not even the command line
[02:49] <jinho326> just a black screen
[02:49] <scheuri> jinho326: try alt-f1
[02:49] <jinho326> right before ubuntu is supposed to load
[02:49] <scheuri> jinho326: the black screen is only on alt-f7
[02:50] <Gambit--> Hi Everyone, I'm trying to get Xdmcp on Ubuntu 5.10 working right, but every time I connect to it it just disconnects me immediately, it never even shows the greeter window with a login prompt.  Any ideas what could be the problem?
[02:50] <jinho326> im not in ubuntu yet at that point
[02:50] <scheuri> jinho326: ah, I see...well....try to press alt-f1 and you should end up on the console
[02:50] <Fatal_2> but does anybody know how to get sound working for dapper when running in vmware on top of winxp?
[02:50] <scheuri> jinho326: there you type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server"
[02:51] <jinho326> thanks that was exactly wat i was looking for!
[02:51] <scheuri> jinho326: that will bring up the configurations dialog for X-Server
[02:51] <scheuri> jinho326: BEWARE, i am just not sure if it is xorg-server or xserver-xorg
[02:51] <scheuri> always mixing that up
[02:52] <jinho326> kk
[02:52] <jinho326> will try both
[02:52] <gnomefreak> xserver-xorg
[02:52] <jinho326> thanks!
[02:52] <Samuli^> xserver-xorg
[02:52] <jinho326> kk
[02:52] <scheuri> see...people come to help if I tell BS...;)
[02:52] <jinho326> hehe thanks agaiN!
[02:52] <Samuli^> scheuri. I didn't see you bullshitting anyone :)
[02:53] <scheuri> Samuli^: ah, well...I really mix up those names too often...;)
[02:53] <Samuli^> me too.
[02:53] <scheuri> ;)
[02:54] <Zaggynl> Hi, how do I restart inetd? I can only find /etc/inetd.conf
[02:54] <scheuri> Zaggynl: try "sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart"
[02:54] <generico> how i reset my gnome configuration? just remove .gnome? or remove .gnome2 and .gnome2_private too??
[02:54] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, I feel your pain :(  This Xdmcp problem is driving me bonkers.
[02:55] <Zaggynl> scheuri, I tried it as root, but it cannot find that file
[02:55] <Gambit--> well really it's a problem with KDM/GDM/XDM
[02:55] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, ah video card driver problems are always bad.
[02:55] <shane_> hello all
[02:55] <torrentwoes> hi.. can anybody tell me how to check if 3d acceleration is enabled ?
[02:55] <shane_> anyone here, have one of the Intel HDA sound card/chipsets?
[02:55] <scheuri> Zaggynl: it doesnt? okay...change to /etc/init.d and make an ls
[02:55] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: yeah when the damn card lies to you :(
[02:56] <shane_> torrentwoes: run tuxracer, heh
[02:56] <scheuri> Zaggynl: maybe it is renamed in ubuntu...
[02:56] <Zaggynl> scheuri, I must be, only 3 files with 'inetd' in the name exist
[02:56] <torrentwoes> well i tried running et and i think its running pretty poorly for a 6600gt
[02:56] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, I'm just pissed that no one else seems to have my problems.
[02:56] <scheuri> Zaggynl: "sudo /etc/init.d/inetutils-inetd"?
[02:56] <Gambit--> What's the cleanest most drastic method by which you can remove a package?
[02:56] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: whats the issue?
[02:56] <Zaggynl> ill try that hold on
[02:57] <shane_> anyway, i'm having an issue, where I can record from my mic, but sound doesn't pass through, i have an HDA Intel chipset
[02:57] <Zaggynl> scheuri, doesnt exist either :(
[02:57] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: depends on the package (how it was installed)
[02:57] <shane_> torrentwoes: which driver are you using in your xorg.conf?
[02:57] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: sudo apt-get remove --purge packagename
[02:57] <generico> how i reset my gnome configuration? just remove .gnome? or remove .gnome2 and .gnome2_private too??
[02:57] <traveller> Zaggynl: "ls /etc/init.d/ | grep inet"
[02:57] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: or sudo dpkg -r packagename
[02:57] <paolob-parroquia> guys! Hi all of you! I have a problem printing from a ubuntu pc to another. I followed what is said in http://krazypenguin.net/Ubuntu_Dapper_Drake_6.06_Guide#How_to_print_on_remote_Ubuntu_machine_from_another_Ubuntu_machine , but on the server side I get a cups error: "E [14/Jun/2006:08:44:35 -0400]  Unable to bind socket for address 10.152.58.9:631 - Cannot assign requested address." . Any hint? thank you!
[02:57] <shane_> I would like to be able to plug my xm into my mic jack and listen with the headphones, but the mic input doesn't play back
[02:57] <traveller> Zaggynl: should tell you if anything similar is there
[02:57] <scheuri> Zaggynl: okay...last ressort...try a "sudo aptitude search inetd" and check if there is a i at the approprite package
[02:57] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, I'm looking at completely removing any of the X11 related packages, trying to get it to a clean condition.
[02:58] <torrentwoes> nvidia
[02:58] <JaZy84> shane_,  did you check to see if it was muted?
[02:58] <scheuri> gnomefreak: what about purge?
[02:58] <torrentwoes> should i be using generic or amd64-k8?
[02:58] <Zaggynl> scheuri, it gives a v before inetd
[02:58] <gnomefreak> scheuri: dpkg doesnt have a purge parameter i dont think
[02:58] <scheuri> gnomefreak: dpkg doesnt, but apt-get and aptitude
[02:58] <shane_> JaZy84: well, the default mixer is kind of vague.there is a capture volume  that's up, 2 capture mux volume which is up, and seems to control the recording volume
[02:58] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: removing xserver-xorg should remove all other X packages with it
[02:59] <shane_> but when I run alsamixergui
[02:59] <JaZy84> ah
[02:59] <gnomefreak> scheuri: i gave him the --purge command
[02:59] <Zaggynl> traveller, nothing like it :(
[02:59] <shane_> that mixer doesn't let me raise the volume up
[02:59] <scheuri> Zaggynl: well, try to install it again "sudo aptitude install inetd"
[02:59] <Zaggynl> okay
[02:59] <ranpha> how can i chck the filesystem of my own root???
[02:59] <shane_> in alsamixergui i'm talking about the "Input source" setting
[02:59] <traveller> Zaggynl: maybe it's not installed, try -- dpkg -l xinetd
[03:00] <interferon> is dapper out yet?
[03:00] <traveller> Zaggynl: or you can follow scheuri's suggestion :)
[03:00] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, so everything that depends on xserver-xorg will get cleaned out too, right?
[03:00] <traveller> Intangir: yes
[03:00] <gnomefreak> interferon: yes for 2 weeks
[03:00] <shane_> i'm not sure what "Inpu Source" is suppose to mean, versus Capture, and the 2 Captur MUX controls
[03:00] <tenco> when i want to use mail notification with pop3, i can't select ssl (it's greyed out), despite this pop3-account works in evolution with ssl.
[03:00] <interferon> how do i upgrade to it?
[03:00] <tenco> is this a know issue?
[03:00] <scheuri> !tell interferon about upgrade
[03:01] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: should i might use aptitude remove purge to be sure   im not sure how aptitude handles a purge parameter though you might want tto refer to man aptitude to find out
[03:01] <Gambit--> gnomefreak, how is aptitude different then apt-get?  I thought they were the same :)
[03:01] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: aptitude handles depends better than apt-get
[03:02] <patrick_king> what is vmware used for
[03:02] <dooglus> gnomefreak: apt-get does a better job of resolving dependencies than aptitude
[03:02] <ighost> dooglus: :p
[03:02] <Zaggynl> patrick_king, virtual machines
[03:02] <tenco> someone using pop3 here?
[03:02] <gnomefreak> Gambit--: apt-get will suggest packages for you aptitude will install them automaticly
[03:02] <scheuri> patrick_king: to emulate other operating systems (and applications in it)
[03:02] <dooglus> ighost: did you try asking in #mysql or some such?
[03:02] <Zaggynl> patrick_king, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware
[03:02] <yanis> what package do I need to play mpeg,avi and other videos?
[03:02] <BlueEagle> gambit--: aptitude with no action opens a curses-based interface.
[03:02] <Zaggynl> works perfectly for school projects ;)
[03:02] <Kibou> gnomefreak: you can turn that off though
[03:03] <gnomefreak> Kibou: yes i know
[03:03] <BlueEagle> uberriffic: tell yanis about restricted
[03:03] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell yanis about restricted
[03:03] <gnomefreak> Kibou: you have a config file you can do anything ;)
[03:03] <Gambit--> Oh, that's interesting, I'll have to give it a try.
[03:03] <BlueEagle> uberriffic: sorry about the mis-nicking.
[03:03] <Kibou> just saying
[03:03] <interferon> just change breezy to dapper in my sources.list and then run apt-get dist-upgrade?
[03:04] <Yoosah> interferon: first apt-get update
[03:04] <traveller> interferon: apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:04] <ighost> dooglus: i'm talking in #postgresql right now, and they are giving me the bad news
[03:04] <scheuri> interferon: well, a "aptitude update" first
[03:04] <BlueEagle> interferon: I would recomend using the source-o-matic to generate that sources.list
[03:04] <a_l_e> i'm on ubuntu live: how can i give cups a password for setting up a printer (i didn't succeed in configuring the network printer through the printers tool)
[03:04] <gnomefreak> interferon: with an apt-get update before apt-get dist-upgrade but yes
[03:04] <tenco> additionaly, everytime i start evolution i get asked to accept a ssl certificate of the pop3-server. but the fingerprint is everytime the same
[03:04] <interferon> right, i just did the update, but neglected to mention it )
[03:04] <interferon> :)
[03:04] <gnomefreak> BlueEagle: not during upgrade
[03:04] <tenco> how can i stop evolution behaving that way?
[03:05] <interferon> 1272 upgraded, 250 new
[03:05] <interferon> shoot
[03:05] <patrick_king> so what could i use vmware for
[03:05] <BlueEagle> a_l_e: If you're on http://localhost:631 you need to specify a root password. To set the root password: `sudo passwd` (not recomended) What happended with gnome-cups-manager?
[03:05] <scheuri> patrick_king: testing, working, developing...
[03:05] <shane_> so no one has used an HDA Intel chipset?
[03:05] <BlueEagle> gnomefreak: oh, ok.
[03:06] <gypsymauro> I'm using dapper alternate CD but after a while I get black screen.. it seems its working
[03:06] <gypsymauro> but why that blank screen?
[03:06] <BlueEagle> patrick_king: You can use vmware for running other operating systems in viritual machines (the vm stands for viritual machine iirc)
[03:06] <avalost> damned flashplayer download is taking _forever_
[03:07] <yanis> nothing lasts forever
[03:07] <BlueEagle> gypsymauro: that might be the screen saver. Try pressing ie. shift.
[03:07] <gypsymauro> BlueEagle: screen saver on textual installer?
[03:07] <BlueEagle> gypsymauro: Yes, text interfaces are as much prone to burn-in on the monitor as any other interface.
[03:07] <a_l_e> BlueEagle: no idea, i give the ip address but i can't it can't get to the printer :-( mac osx on the other laptop can.
[03:07] <DanielC> Something is seriously wrong with Dapper. I'm trying to install it on a new laptop and I swear it's taken 1 hour to go past the *first* step. You know, where you select the language.
[03:08] <jpbotelho> how i reset my gnome aparence??
[03:08] <BlueEagle> a_l_e: ...and your printer is a? ...and it's connected to a?
[03:08] <scheuri> DanielC: which CD? have you checked CD checksum?
[03:08] <gypsymauro> btw is not the screen saver and I got the same problem on another machine so isn't video card too
[03:08] <decon> hi someone please help me with a weird problem here :P im following this guide to get my wifi on my thinkpad working: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26623 But for some reason there isnt any folder called /hotplug/ when i use this cmd sudo cp ipw-2.3-*.fw /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/
[03:08] <BlueEagle> danielc: How much RAM on the machine?
[03:08] <DanielC> scheuri:  Desktop CD. Yes, I checked the checksum, it was fine.
[03:08] <Ng> jpbotelho: System->Preferences->Theme and pick Human, that should reset most things
[03:09] <BlueEagle> danielc: Make, model, speed and age of the CD-ROM drive?
[03:09] <DanielC> BlueEagle: Brand new machine, perhaps 1GB of RAM. 'top' doesn't show any problems with etiher CPU or RAM.
[03:09] <DanielC> BlueEagle:age: about 20min.
[03:09] <BlueEagle> danielc: then I recomend you choose the "check CD for errors" during boot.
[03:09] <DanielC> BlueEagle: Ok, seriously, this laptop is a new model and arrived this morning.
[03:09] <jpbotelho> Ng, i need remove all.. icons, bars.. i try remove .gnome, but it dont make changes..
[03:09] <vikas> Hi all, I'm not able to view videos using totem, xine
[03:10] <vikas> I can see the seek bar scrolling, etc. but the players show a blank screen
[03:10] <DanielC> BlueEagle: I *did*. I just said that. There are no errors.
[03:10] <scheuri> DanielC: well, there may be some hardware issues as well as problems with the CD-Rom...
[03:10] <Ng> jpbotelho: ah. well you could remove .gconf after you log out, then log back in, but that will wipe quite a lot of gnome application settings
[03:10] <DanielC> But I swear that moving the mouse across the screen takes 10min.
[03:10] <decon> vikas, tried this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs ?
[03:10] <a_l_e> BlueEagle: it's a brother lj (hl1430). if i enable the "detect network printers" the system finds it. but it can't print to it. i start to think that i should download the ppi for it.
[03:10] <vikas> I installed mplayer from multiverse and tried this "mplayer -vo x11 <videofile>" and then i can see the video
[03:10] <scheuri> DanielC: have you an OS running on the machine already?
[03:11] <DanielC> scheuri: That's what I figure. :(
[03:11] <BlueEagle> danielc: Well, it being a laptop might explain it. There are some problems with certain laptops. Try starting it without support for pcmcia. That has caused several installers to start working iirc.
[03:11] <NoWhereToTurn> DanielC atr least your mouse moves
[03:11] <DanielC> scheuri: It came with Windows XP,which works.
[03:11] <NoWhereToTurn> mine doesnt
[03:11] <vikas> decon: i installed the codecs, like i said, if i say mplayer -vo x11 it works
[03:11] <Danborg> Can someone point me towards instructions on installing ndiswrapper?
[03:11] <a_l_e> BlueEagle: its connected through usb to an ethernet print server
[03:11] <scheuri> DanielC: tried some CDs with XP? they work?
[03:11] <DanielC> BlueEagle: How would I do that?
[03:11] <vikas> decon: i think Xv doesnt work.. which is the default video out
[03:11] <decon> vikas, weird
[03:11] <BlueEagle> !boot
[03:11] <ubotu> BlueEagle: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:11] <BlueEagle> !bootoptions
[03:11] <DanielC> scheuri: I haven't tried that.
[03:11] <ubotu> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions not the full complement of boot options but it is some of them
[03:11] <decon> im no expert just thought that it could be the problem :)
[03:12] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell danielc about bootoptions
[03:12] <patrick_king> BlueEagle: so can it be run from ubuntu
[03:12] <scheuri> DanielC: BlueEagle might be right...maybe you need to add bootoptions before starting from CD...
[03:12] <vikas> decon: this happened after i installed some packages following the RestrictedFormats topic in the wiki
[03:13] <BlueEagle> patrick_king: vmware has got a linux version. I assume it would be able to be installed on an ubuntu distro. Haven't tried it myself tho. Btw. if you don't know what you want vmware for, why do you want it?
[03:13] <alchemist> jimmy89: well, I seem to have made it here alive *grin*
[03:13] <decon> vikas, tried to uninstall them again :P?
[03:13] <vikas> decon: :-) yeah
[03:13] <decon> no go ?
[03:13] <Exdaix> Does anyone have some tricks for getting a USB Hub to work?  It is detected according to dmesg as a 7 port hub...  which is correct.  But nothing I connect to it is found
[03:13] <DanielC> scheuri: What options would you recommend?
[03:13] <vikas> nope
[03:13] <decon> :/
[03:13] <scheuri> BlueEagle: FYI: vmware server (linux) works perfectly fine unter ubuntu 6.06, 5.10 and debian sarge
[03:13] <jimmy89> ah
[03:13] <jimmy89> he alchemist
[03:13] <vikas> only way i can see any video playing is mplayer -vo x11
[03:13] <jimmy89> *hey
[03:14] <scheuri> DanielC: disable pcmcia and maybe APIC
[03:14] <scheuri> ACPI
[03:14] <patrick_king> BlueEagle: i will use it for running VB.net and office 2003 as i need these for college
[03:14] <NoWhereToTurn> bbiab before I decide whether to give up on Ubuntu
[03:14] <decon> is it ANY video format vikas ?
[03:14] <scheuri> DanielC: ACPI
[03:14] <DanielC> scheuri: ok
[03:14] <vikas> decon: yeah, tried vorbis, xvid, mpeg4
[03:14] <jimmy89> alchemist: Any progress?
[03:14] <scheuri> DanielC: take it step by step
[03:15] <BlueEagle> nowheretoturn: Which mouse have you got?
[03:16] <BlueEagle> scheuri: Tell it to patrick_king. :)
[03:16] <stephenford> ello all
[03:16] <scheuri> BlueEagle: ;)
[03:16] <scheuri> patrick_king: the linux version of vmware (server that is) works perfectly fine with ubuntu 6.06, download the tar.gz and follow instructions
[03:16] <decon> vikas, hmm dunno sry :/
[03:16] <Danborg> Can someone point me towards instructions on installing ndiswrapper?
[03:16] <BlueEagle> !wireless
[03:16] <ubotu> somebody said wireless was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards if it does not work out of the box https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper windows drivers
[03:17] <scheuri> patrick_king: just make sure you have the kernel headers installed and the build-essentials
[03:17] <Exdaix> apt-get install ndiswrapper
[03:17] <alchemist> jimmy89: well, it looks like network-admin was built with no regards to anythign but single key-wep environments
[03:17] <stephenford> got a little laptop problem but very pleased as this may well have been a brick before
[03:17] <BlueEagle> danborg: there you go.

[03:21] <BlueEagle> giacomo: A) Please don't over-use your enter key. It makes it hard for people to read the whole thing. B) I don't use wine so I can't help you. I hope someone else can. C) To debug an error we really need the _exact_ error message. D) If you feel more comfortable speaking italian please join #ubuntu-it.

[03:32] <stephenford> the only res it does do is 1024 x768 and 800x600
[03:32] <ighost> fresch: ya that's it
[03:33] <ighost> fresch: i should try it
[03:33] <pdlnhrd> pussfeller: i use rhythmbox to manage over 200 gigs
[03:33] <stephenford> i set it too 1024x768 because thats what the laptop manual stresses but it doesnt make a difference like i said
[03:33] <pussfeller> pdlnhrd, thats a lot of music :)
[03:34] <pdlnhrd> pussfeller: RB use to fall all over itself trying to manage it.. but it works great now
[03:34] <pussfeller> pdlnhrd, in the past it has always crashed on me while importing which is why i use amarok, but I am trying all the default gnome stuff for awhile till kubuntu fixes a few things
[03:34] <stephenford> the mouse half disapears off the top of the screen its like the desktops missed my moniter lol

[03:37] <stephenford> hmmmm time to go hunting for info
[03:37] <uXp> stephenford:  lol
[03:37] <stephenford> my guess is a problem with the rage8 graphics card
[03:37] <pussfeller> how you get windows shares to mount as use
[03:38] <pussfeller> user, it keeps giving me smbmount must be installed suid root
[03:38] <uXp> pussfeller:  like the windows HD?

[03:40] <uXp> oops
[03:40] <uXp> pussfeller:  http://www.pcmech.com/show/os/903/3
[03:40] <paolob-parroquia> Tomze, nothing has changed
[03:41] <patrick_king> what the command to install a .sh file again
[03:41] <Tomze> paolob-parroquia: well... its should just display more output... but cjeck if its running.. i use netstat -tnap for that
[03:41] <Tomze> patrick_king: sh or ./
[03:41] <decon> how do I find out whether I should use ipw2200 or ipw2100 ?
[03:41] <on2see> Since Benderz0r will not respond :(( how do I install Mediawiki onto ubuntu, so it can be seen by me and other windows computers on the network (by firefox)
[03:42] <NoWhereToTurn> well I find it strange that Ubuntu will not work with this serial mouse but Mandriva, installed on the same computer does
[03:42] <paolob-parroquia> Tomze, I get "tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:631           127.0.0.1:38201         ESTABLISHED-" without PID an program name
[03:42] <Tomze> paolob-parroquia: sounds like its running to me...
[03:43] <gypsymauro> there is a way to know (even if the packages is not installed) which apckages depends on a packages? I want to know which packages depends by libglut3
[03:43] <paolob-parroquia> Tomze, but gnome-cups-manager tells me that it can't connect to server
[03:43] <pussfeller> uXp, I can mount em manully already, but thanks
[03:44] <patrick_king> scheuri: i have downloaded the .tar.gz what do i do now
[03:44] <uXp> pussfeller:  alright
[03:44] <Tomze> gypsymauro: apt-cache sho or you can simulate an install with the -s option
[03:44] <a_l_e> i want to install a "slimm" ubuntu... control which services are active, use a small window manager... which iso should i download?
[03:44] <submental> gypsymauro, apt-cache depends <package>
[03:44] <ighost> fresch: omg  a silenced ak, hott
[03:45] <Tomze> paolob-parroquia: what if you connect to cupsys in your browser... 1270.0.0.1:631 / localhost:631
[03:45] <on2see> would someone help me install mediawiki onto ubuntu?
[03:46] <paolob-parroquia> Tomze, it shows information and printers
[03:46] <dylan_> is there any way to convert an avi video to mpeg or something that can be read by a DVD player?
[03:46] <gypsymauro> submental: rdepends is the answer , tanx:)
[03:46] <uXp> dylan_:  xine
[03:46] <Tomze> paolob-parroquia: then set up your printer in the webinterface?
[03:47] <dylan_> uXp, it can convert videos so a DVD player can read it?
[03:47] <on2see> how do I install mediawiki onto ubuntu
[03:47] <uXp> dylan_:  is a dvd reader
[03:47] <Ng> on2see: you should just be able to install the mediawiki package from universe
[03:47] <uXp> on2see:  we see your request, if someone knows, they will answer.
[03:47] <dylan_> uXp, i want to convert a video to a smaller format.  this video is 701mb large, but i want it to be smaller
[03:47] <Tomze> dylan_: mplayer/mencoder/trancode - avidemux - dvdrip
[03:47] <a_l_e> ok, i've simply downloaded the desktop version. optimisation will follow.
[03:48] <on2see> I know...
[03:48] <paolob-parroquia> Tomze, I'm trying to make it, but it asks me for username and password. What user/password?
[03:48] <sjaban> Is it possible to get Ubuntu runnung on Asus S5A laptop?
[03:48] <sjaban> *running
[03:48] <sjaban> i'm forced to use windows now..
[03:48] <Tomze> paolob-parroquia: ahhh... there you got me... im not sure how you would do in a sudo system
[03:49] <Ng> !tell on2see about repos
[03:49] <Tomze> paolob-parroquia: normally you type in the root user + pass... hmmm
[03:49] <patrick_king> hello i just downloaded VMware Server.taz.gz from the vmware site, how do i install it
[03:49] <patrick_king>  as i dont want to mess it up
[03:49] <on2see> ?
[03:49] <Ng> on2see: ubotu just messaged you with instructions for enabling the universe repository so you can use synaptic/apt-get to install mediawiki. as for using it, I have no idea I'm afraid, but I expect the package will contain some documentation
[03:49] <xice> patrick_king, untar, and run ./vmware-dsfdsf sf.pl
[03:49] <xice> where dsf etc is what i cant rememeber
[03:50] <xice> and follow the prompt
[03:50] <on2see> well, how could I make it work as a webserver, accessible from all the networks pcs?
[03:50] <gypsymauro> why the "mount root filesystem" takes so long time in dapper?
[03:51] <SeanTater> gypsymauro: that might happen if your hard drive is slow
[03:52] <Kibou> or using reiserfs
[03:52] <NoWhereToTurn> is there an app that one can use to configure the mouse so that I can use XWindows?
[03:52] <kane77> is there a way to repeat some command? until it's successfull??
[03:53] <SeanTater> What file system is best for a USB pen drive if it's onlty going between kubuntu systems?
[03:53] <on2see> Ng: is it possible to get it seen on all the network, to your knowledge?
[03:53] <Oldschool> moin
[03:53] <submental> on2see, yes. how about you get it install first?
[03:53] <SeanTater> kane77: yes, what command?
[03:53] <Ng> on2see: it will just be running through apache, so it will be available to anyone that can connect to apache
[03:53] <on2see> Submental: calm down!!!
[03:54] <kane77> SeanTater, well I'm trying to connect using telnet, but there are too many connections...
[03:54] <SeanTater> kane77: how often do you want it to see if it;s successful?
[03:54] <neutrinomass> What program can output the list of files in a package without having to download it first ?
[03:54] <kane77> SeanTater, well lets say every minute or so... or maybe 5 minutes...
[03:55] <SeanTater> kane77: okay, try this: until WhateverCommandYouWantItToDo; do sleep 5m; done
[03:57] <SeanTater> kane77: does it work?
[03:57] <kane77> SeanTater, with the done?
[03:57] <wastrel> ubuntu
[03:57] <SeanTater> kane77: yes
[03:57] <Ng> neutrinomass: possibly apt-file, if not, packages.ubuntu.com can
[03:58] <SeanTater> kane77: does it work?
[03:58] <kane77> SeanTater, how do I know if it works?
[03:58] <neutrinomass> Ng: Yes, it's apt-file. I was forgetting the name. Thanks a lot :)
[03:59] <kane77> it only states that there are too many connections... and returns to shell
[03:59] <psic4t> sc
[03:59] <RadiantFire> but my panel is pretty!
[03:59] <SeanTater> kane77: if you don't see the user@user-desktop stuff within one second of trying it -- by telling me you're not sure, I'm sure it worked
[03:59] <SeanTater> kane77: hum --
[04:00] <SeanTater> kane77: it should wait about 5 minutes and try again, not give you a line waiting for a sommand
[04:00] <gypsymauro> SeanTater: well is a notebook of an year..:/
[04:00] <SeanTater> gypsymauro: another person suggested that reiserfs does that
[04:00] <kane77> SeanTater, but it does give me a command line...
[04:01] <SeanTater> kane77: can you paste back in here the exact command you tried?
[04:01] <kane77> SeanTater,  until nc ascii-wm.net 2006 ; do sleep 1m; done
[04:01] <kane77> SeanTater, or  until telnet ascii-wm.net 2006 ; do sleep 1m; done
[04:02] <SeanTater> kane77: I'm a frayed knot
[04:02] <patrick_king> how do i get gcc pointing to 3.4.5 insted of 4.0.2
[04:02] <SeanTater> kane77: I think the telnet returns normal whether it connects or not
[04:02] <dooglus> kane77: the command works the first time
[04:02] <noiz777> hello im using the live CD and need to find out if it recognizes my ATI before i install?? help please
[04:03] <dooglus> kane77: so it loop exits.
[04:03] <dooglus> kane77: you're telling 'nc' to connect to the that host, which it does.  the host sends back that message; job one.
[04:03] <SeanTater> kane77: I think you are stuck with doing it yourself
[04:03] <dooglus> job done.
[04:03] <rpt> I made a "small" mistake and installed ubuntu-server on my laptop, I intend to use it as a desktop laptop ofcourse, should i reinstall the Desktop version or just try to fix the server one with X and stuff?
[04:03] <dooglus> kane77: do you want to repeat it until it comes back with a different message?  you could do that if you wanted
[04:04] <neutrinomass> rpt: I think that 'sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop' should be OK
[04:04] <kane77> I'll see what I can come up with... btw its fun this   nc ascii-wm.net 2006 -live ASCII football WC... :)
[04:04] <SeanTater> dooglus: how might you get it to do that?
[04:04] <kane77> dooglus, how do I do?
[04:04] <dooglus> kane77: what are you wanting to do with the output of nc if it doesn't say 'too many connections'?
[04:05] <gimmulf> is there any pdf reader thats better than evience? it crashes like all the time
[04:05] <pussfeller> gimmulf, the only one I have found worth using is the adobe one for linux
[04:05] <SeanTater> gimmulf: if not KDE, try xpdf, it's stable and renders well, but featureless
[04:05] <rpt> neutrinomass: right, though suppose the server installation comes with a lot of additional stuff I wont be needing, so I kind of asked this question in vain, ETA 6 mins for another image is just easier as im a newbie to ubuntu! :o)
[04:05] <gimmulf> oki SeanTater
[04:05] <kane77> dooglus, normally start... if it says 'too many connections' i want it to try again minute/five minutes later....
[04:05] <wastrel> gimmulf:  ggv acroread xpdf gnome-gv
[04:06] <neutrinomass> gimmulf: If it crashes, can you please get a backtrace ( http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash ) and open a bug in launchpad ?
[04:06] <neutrinomass> rpt: 6 minutes ? ....6 ? :-|
[04:06] <rpt> neutrinomass: yeah network is a bit jammed at the moment normally I dl at 2,2MB/s
[04:06] <noiz777> ppl is there a command i can use to see if my ATI is being recognized? noob here
[04:07] <cheesechoker> what's the difference between 'alternate' and 'desktop'?
[04:07] <rpt> noiz777: lspci?
[04:07] <neutrinomass> rpt: I would ban you from this channel if I was an op :P
[04:07] <rpt> neutrinomass: *giggle*
[04:07] <rpt> neutrinomass:  I also upload at that so proper ethernet rules
[04:07] <dooglus> kane77: what is 'normally start'?
[04:07] <SeanTater> cheesechoker: desktop is equivalent to a live CD with an installer and alternate is a not-so-pretty installer, you probably want desktop.
[04:08] <kane77> dooglus, well to display the contents it should...
[04:08] <dooglus> kane77: something like this might do what you want (depending on what exactly that is...):
[04:08] <neutrinomass> cheesechoker: The 'desktop' is a LiveCD from which you can work AND install Ubuntu. The catches are that it doesn't work with less than 192MB RAM, you can't upgrade your previous installation using it and that it's a little less reliable than the 'alternate' CD. The alternate CD also gives you support for stuff like OEM installations.
[04:08] <dooglus> while :; do output="$(nc ascii-wm.net 2006)"; if echo "$output" | grep -vFq "too many connections :)  .. try later"; then echo "$output"; break; fi; echo got: "$output" - sleeping; sleep 5m; done
[04:08] <patrick_king> how do i get gcc pointing to 3.4.5 insted of 4.0.2
[04:08] <noiz777> rpt, thanks...i got this out i guess it doesnt work 0000:00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 7831
[04:08] <neutrinomass> rpt: I'm happy with my 128 Kbps upload speed :( I was happy, that is
[04:09] <mantono> how do I load a dbus-session? gnome-power-manager complains about it not being loaded (I do not use gdm).
[04:09] <neutrinomass> patrick_king: Are you sure the thing you are trying to compile doesn't exist in the repositories ?
[04:09] <rpt> noiz777: im not entirely sure if that should show it, i think theres a probing tool too but Im no expert =)
[04:09] <Tomze> patrick_king: try to search  for symlink gcc (my server is down right now so i cant point you to my notes)
[04:09] <patrick_king> vmware
[04:09] <cheesechoker> thanks all
[04:09] <SeanTater> cheesechoker: yw
[04:10] <noiz777> rpt, im not sure what to do because ive hear that dapper has some problems with ATIs
[04:11] <Frogzoo> noiz777: depends which model ati
[04:11] <noiz777> Frogzoo, ive got a Ati mobiliti radeon 9200
[04:12] <ubuntu> hello
[04:12] <Frogzoo> noiz777: u should try the fglrx driver
[04:12] <noiz777> Frogzoo, how do you do that?
[04:12] <Frogzoo> !fglrx
[04:13] <Frogzoo> !tell noiz777 about fglrx
[04:13] <Gullstad> !tell Gullstad about fglrx
[04:13] <Gullstad> =)
[04:13] <ubuntu> tried to start fluxbox from terminal ran fluxbox , could not connect to xserver?
[04:14] <noiz777> Frogzoo, can it be done running the live CD?
[04:14] <dooglus> kane77: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15691
[04:14] <neutrinomass> ubuntu: Try 'gdm' ... fluxbox gives that error because it cannot connect to the X server, the thing that's responsible for actually displaying anything
[04:14] <Frogzoo> noiz777: not sure
[04:14] <neutrinomass> ubuntu: I guess this is a server installation, right ?
[04:14] <ubuntu> it was
[04:14] <mantono> ubuntu: what error ouput did you get from X?
[04:14] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu,  edit the .xinitrc to contain 'fluxbox' and use 'startx'
[04:15] <ubuntu> where do i find the ouput
[04:15] <Dr_Willis> or use the gdm/kdm login managers and select fluxbox in the session menus
[04:15] <KyoLptp`> So the DVD of 6.06 has the text install on it as well as the live cd?
[04:15] <mantono> ubuntu: int the terminal
[04:15] <mantono> *in
[04:15] <kane77> dooglus, so do I put it in a file and sed chmod +x and run it?
[04:15] <ubuntu> where is the .xinitrc file stored
[04:16] <dooglus> kane77: if you want to, sure.
[04:16] <dooglus> kane77: depends what you're trying to do
[04:16] <mantono> ubuntu: in you home folder
[04:16] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu,  make one in the users home dir same as all the other .whatever files
[04:16] <Dr_Willis> example .xinitrc (2 lines)
[04:16] <Dr_Willis> xterm &
[04:16] <Dr_Willis> exec fluxbox
[04:16] <kane77> dooglus, what is other way to make this run?
[04:16] <dooglus> kane77: I just typed it

[04:17] <neutrinomass> _Mr_Denix_: Hello :)
[04:17] <kane77> dooglus, THANK YOU... It works!!
[04:18] <dooglus> kane77: are you hoping it'll connect and let you talk to it eventually?

[04:28] <yoshiznit123> stonekeeper: heres the url if you didn't find it yet: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html#s-pin
[04:28] <frogman> my swap isn't working on a fresh install of 6.06
[04:29] <josh> Dr_Willis: how do u get synapitic?
[04:29] <frogman> fdisk: /dev/hda1               1         122      979933+  82  Linux swap / Solaris
[04:29] <ubuntu> yule  there is a directory in home called fluxbox in which there is a file called startup the directory has these permissions drwxr-xr-x  2 ubuntu ubuntu 4096 Jun 14 12:06 .fluxbox
[04:29] <yoshiznit123> josh, it should already be installed under system->administration
[04:30] <frogman> "mkswap /dev/hda1 && swapon /dev/hda1" says....
[04:30] <Dr_Willis> josh,  its the standard package tool. i think its time to read a few ubuntu beginner guides.
[04:30] <josh> thankthanks
[04:30] <josh> lol
[04:30] <frogman> swapon: /dev/hda1: Invalid argument
[04:30] <josh> i just forgot lol
[04:30] <yoshiznit123> but yea, does anyone know when the dev packages will be fixed?
[04:30] <esculapio__> my audio this not being listened to well.
[04:30] <esculapio__> Help, my audio this not being listened to well.
[04:30] <NoUse> frogman is /dev/hda1 have a swap parition type?
[04:31] <Shaezsche> what is the point of xcfe?
[04:31] <jrattner> shachaf, simplicity
[04:31] <frogman> NoUse: yes, fdisk: "/dev/hda1               1         122      979933+  82  Linux swap / Solaris"
[04:31] <dooglus> Shaezsche: it's a desktop environment
[04:31] <josh> i got version 5.10 of unbuntu
[04:31] <josh> is that old?
[04:31] <Dr_Willis> Shaezsche,  whats the point of anything.
[04:31] <Shaezsche> yea but why use it over kde and gnome?
[04:31] <Yoosah> to provide you witha graphical environment Shaezsche
[04:31] <dooglus> Shaezsche: why use GNOME and KDE over XFCE4?
[04:31] <yoshiznit123> it uses 'less recources'
[04:31] <Dr_Willis> Shaezsche,  because you like how it works better.
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> they are all tools.. use what you like.
[04:32] <Yoosah> matter of taste really
[04:32] <blaaaat> damn, I b0rked my Ubuntu install (upgrade to Dapper went wrong because I forgot 'dist'). Any tips on how I could start to fix it? (I can still log into my pc using an older kernel)
[04:32] <dooglus> blaaaat: do a "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[04:32] <ubuntu> yule; the thing is when I installed fluxbox i did it from apt-get as with xserver-xorg package but i had a server before and there may be no gdm installed i am not sure
[04:32] <NoUse> frogman you are running mkswap as root right?
[04:32] <ubuntu> yule: are you still hee
[04:33] <blaaaat> NoUse, yes I did after I did an accidental "apt-get upgrade" after changing my breezy to dapper sources
[04:33] <frogman> NoUse: yes, I did a "sudo su" to get a root shell
[04:33] <yule> ubuntu: sorry, can't focus right now
[04:33] <josh> i want to install thsi extension
[04:33] <josh> http://peekko.com/chat/HomePage.html
[04:33] <ubuntu> yule: ok take a rest !!!!!

[04:36] <dooglus> Krpano: shelves?
[04:36] <yoshiznit123> hobbsee: like libdbus-1-dev for example, complaining about dependencies

[04:36] <NoUse> blaaaat run 'sudo aptitude dist-upgrade'
[04:36] <Frogzoo> Krpano: nope
[04:36] <Hobbsee> yoshiznit123: is there a bug filed for them?

[04:37] <Frogzoo> dooglus: o.O
[04:37] <Hobbsee> yoshiznit123: where does it say that?
[04:37] <tubbie> hi
[04:38] <blaaaat> NoUse, thanks, I'll give it a try
[04:38] <kane77> Is there any virtual Cd program??? (to mount images)
[04:38] <dooglus> Frogzoo: what?
[04:38] <Frogzoo> (shelves...)
[04:38] <josh> isos
[04:38] <tubbie> when I move the windows, I only want it to draw the border and not the whole window. where do I set that?
[04:38] <NoUse> !tell kane77 about mountiso
[04:38] <Dr_Willis> josh,  normally you dont. use 'sudo dpkg -i /path/to/file.deb'
[04:38] <dooglus> kane77: "mount -o loopback file.iso /mount/path"
[04:38] <Frogzoo> !loop
[04:38] <Administrator__> somebody stop me
[04:38] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Frogzoo
[04:38] <kane77> err... but what about .bin+.cue files??
[04:39] <Frogzoo> !loopback
[04:39] <ubotu> sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 foo.iso mountpoint/
[04:39] <dooglus> Frogzoo: he wanted his ubuntu machine under his XP one?
[04:39] <errpast-wc> how do I get color with vim.  i.e. I want perl script colored
[04:39] <yoshiznit123> hobbsee: just try installing libdbus-1-dev
[04:39] <Dr_Willis> kane77,  ive heard of cue/bin to iso converter tools out.
[04:39] <Frogzoo> dooglus: I know :p~
[04:39] <josh> i wnat to install firefox which is a tar.gz format and is on my desktop
[04:39] <Dr_Willis> !firefox
[04:39] <yoshiznit123> libdbus-1-dev: Depends: libdbus-1-2 (= 0.60-6ubuntu8) but 0.60-6ubuntu9 is to be installed
[04:40] <blaaaat> NoUse, is aptitude by any chance another frontend like apt-get ?
[04:40] <Dr_Willis> josh,  you may want to stick with just the package manager for now. and not worry about the latest  .tar.gz's
[04:40] <Seveas> !info libdbus-1-dev
[04:40] <ubotu> libdbus-1-dev: (simple interprocess messaging system (development headers)), section libdevel, is optional. Version: 0.60-6ubuntu8 (dapper), Packaged size: 289 kB, Installed size: 748 kB
[04:40] <SGL> Hello everyone
[04:40] <Nightwish1986> Hello SGL
[04:40] <SGL> I have a question about connecting my xubuntu to the internet
[04:40] <SGL> Can I ask about that in here?
[04:40] <Hobbsee> yoshiznit123: installs fine here
[04:40] <pppoe_dude> SGL, ask away
[04:41] <yoshiznit123> hmm
[04:41] <Dr_Willis> SGL,  : ) may as well. heh
[04:41] <NoUse> blaaaat yeah, its usually more intelligent for stuff like dist-upgrade
[04:41] <SGL> What do I have to do for xubuntu to recognize my connection?
[04:41] <Hobbsee> SGL: #xubuntu exists
[04:41] <tubbie> when I move the windows, I only want it to draw the border and not the whole window. where do I set that?
[04:41] <treb0r> Just installed ubuntu after a year on gentoo. very impressed. one question though
[04:41] <Dr_Willis> SGL,  - what 'is' you connnection?
[04:41] <pppoe_dude> SGL, or you can go to #xubuntu
[04:41] <Frogzoo> josh: no you don't - use ff from the repos
[04:41] <SGL> Hobbsee: Nobody there :P
[04:41] <Dr_Willis> tubbie,  check the window manager/perferances area its in there some where.
[04:41] <pppoe_dude> SGL, what kinf of interface do you have?
[04:41] <barry_> Hello. I'm having problems with Firefox plug-ins in Ubuntu. Might someone be able to help?
[04:41] <dooglus> kane77: bchunk can handle bin/cue images, but I don't know anything that can mount them
[04:41] <josh> ive installed apache now, and typed in localhost, the server runs ok, but where is the directory for putting files in
[04:41] <SGL> I have a wire between my router and the xubuntu computer.
[04:42] <Hobbsee> SGL: people there, maybe not awake though :P
[04:42] <SGL> pppoe_dude: I don't know
[04:42] <yoshiznit123> so how do i fix: libdbus-1-dev: Depends: libdbus-1-2 (= 0.60-6ubuntu8) but 0.60-6ubuntu9 is to be installed
[04:42] <pppoe_dude> SGL, ok is it wireless or wired?
[04:42] <SGL> pppoe_dude: I am a noob
[04:42] <SGL> wired!
[04:42] <yoshiznit123> other than downloading and manually changing dependency
[04:42] <SGL> Always
[04:42] <SGL> :P
[04:42] <Frogzoo> !fishing
[04:42] <ubotu> rumour has it, fishing is randomly throwing !commands in the channel instead of using /msg ubotu command. Please dont fish for help. either !ask in the channel or msg ubotu < Knows Everything!> :)
[04:42] <pppoe_dude> SGL, open a terminal window and type "sudo ifconfig" and paste the contents in a pastebin
[04:42] <Dr_Willis> SGL,  so you have    cable modem --> router --->pc ?
[04:42] <pppoe_dude> ubotu, tell SGL about pastebin
[04:43] <josh> ive installed apache now, and typed in localhost, the server runs ok, but where is the directory for putting files in
[04:43] <Nightwish1986> Hello there, I'm having troubles with my sound, it is working, but with an annoying beep in it. I already tried asound.conf and muting some channels, but no luck :( Anyone an Idea?
[04:43] <SGL> I used the alternative installation of xubuntu because my pII 400 Mhz didn't handle the normal one.
[04:43] <yoshiznit123> who's ubotu?
[04:43] <Putiikki> channel's bot
[04:43] <Hobbsee> !tell yoshiznit123 about yourself
[04:43] <Administrator__> josh, /var/www is document root
[04:43] <SGL> Dr_Willis: yes
[04:43] <yoshiznit123> !tell me who you are
[04:43] <tubbie> Dr_Willis, I can't find it
[04:43] <SGL> pppoe_dude: I'll do the terminal thing now
[04:43] <josh> thanks
[04:43] <yoshiznit123> :-)
[04:43] <Frogzoo> SGL: if you pm ubotu, you can use the 'listkeys' command to find stuff
[04:44] <jrattner1> josh, and cgi-bin is /usr/lb/cgi-bin/
[04:44] <pppoe_dude> SGL, also type "cat /etc/network/interfaces" and paste in pastebin
[04:44] <josh> thankyou
[04:44] <Frogzoo> treb0r: how does ubuntu compare?
[04:45] <pppoe_dude> SGL, look for ubotu's message for help with pastebin
[04:45] <josh> does it have php and mysql installed opr do i do that myself?
[04:45] <treb0r> Frogzoo: Well, my first impression is that ubuntu is far more polished an staight forward.
[04:45] <jrattner1> josh, check in synaptic
[04:45] <treb0r> Frogzoo: I thought ubuntu was just for newbies, but I was very wrong
[04:45] <Nightwish1986> Hello there, I'm having troubles with my sound, it is working, but with an annoying scratchy high beep in it. I already tried asound.conf and muting some channels, but no luck :( Anyone an Idea? (Ubuntu, ad1986a, alsa)
[04:46] <treb0r> No more compiling everything for me!
[04:46] <pppoe_dude> SGL, then give us the link to the pastebin
[04:46] <SGL> ok
[04:46] <Frogzoo> treb0r: & it saves on the electricity bill ;)
[04:46] <treb0r> Frogzoo: the installer never asked me for a root password. do people just use sudo instead?
[04:46] <wastrel> sudo
[04:46] <wastrel> 100%
[04:46] <Frogzoo> treb0r: yep
[04:47] <jrattner1> its safer
[04:47] <treb0r> okeydokey
[04:47] <treb0r> I've been a hardcore KDE user for 4 years. Now I'm loving gnome
[04:47] <Frogzoo> treb0r: the theory is, it stops the majority of passwd attacks
[04:47] <treb0r> k
[04:47] <gypsymauro> suppose I want just to have fp packages (free pascal) from debian unstable (there is not in dapper) there is a way to get just that packages and nothing else from debian?
[04:48] <SGL> working in the pastebin now...
[04:48] <Frogzoo> !tell treb0r about themes
[04:48] <SGL> first doing the ifconfig
[04:48] <pppoe_dude> SGL, in the terminal, you can select the text then go to the pastebin and press the middle mouse button to paste
[04:48] <SGL> then doing the interfaces
[04:48] <SGL> but this is not my linux computer ;)
[04:48] <SGL> The linux computer isn't connected to the internet yes
[04:48] <SGL> yet
[04:48] <pppoe_dude> ic
[04:48] <pppoe_dude> :) obviously
[04:48] <SGL> So I'm just typing now
[04:48] <SGL> so brb :)
[04:48] <pppoe_dude> SGL, lol
[04:49] <treb0r> Why can I see remote drives from the file dialog of gedit, but not gimp?
[04:49] <wastrel> linux, eh?
[04:49] <pppoe_dude> SGL, how many network cards do you have on there?
[04:49] <Frogzoo> treb0r: good question...
[04:50] <dsas> treb0r: I don't think gimp supports gnome-vfs (which is the library which allows remote folders)
[04:50] <treb0r> dsas: I see
[04:50] <SGL> pppoe_dude: just one
[04:50] <Frogzoo> dsas: but that should be pretty easy to fix?
[04:51] <josh> im hnaving problems
[04:51] <pppoe_dude> SGL, ok try typing "cat /etc/network/interfaces |grep eth0" and tell me if the line shows dhcp
[04:51] <josh> when i try to copy a website from my memory stick to var foldwe in www it wont let me as it says you do not have permissions
[04:51] <jrattner1> josh, use sudo cp
[04:51] <josh> also it say's that i am not the owner
[04:51] <jrattner1> josh, /var/ww is only writable by root :)
[04:52] <josh> whats that mean?
[04:52] <zquirM> Why would I run Ubuntu Server on my servers instead of Gentoo?
[04:52] <jrattner1> josh, ?
[04:52] <SGL> my ifconfig and interfaces: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15693
[04:52] <jrattner1> zquirM, security, uptime and maintabilitly
[04:52] <treb0r> zquirM: Because gentoo takes a lot more looking after...
[04:52] <josh> writable by root?
[04:52] <Frogzoo> !tell josh about permissions
[04:52] <Gambit--> hey chaps
[04:52] <yoshiznit123> SGL: what does your /etc/iftab say?
[04:52] <kane77> do you know of any good multiplayer RPG?? something isometric slash'em...
[04:52] <zquirM> treb0r: Why would I have to look after anything with Gentoo?
[04:53] <SGL> pppoe_dude: grep eth0 gives nothing
[04:53] <uXp> is "extensions" under mozilla hte same as plugins?
[04:53] <pppoe_dude> SGL, ok ill check the pastebin
[04:53] <Gambit--> I need to add support for a scsi card to my system, which means I need to build some drivers and such, does anyone ahve a good manual or docs for this process in 5.10?
[04:53] <Frogzoo> kane77: wow? (duck)
[04:53] <jrattner1> josh, /var/ww is a folder which only root can write do.  That means that normal users couldn't change the content of your website if they wanted to (this all falls under the concept of groups and file permissions)
[04:53] <treb0r> zquirM: Because everything needs to be compiled from scratch, using USE flags, things can break easily if you are not careful...
[04:53] <Nightwish1986> Hello there, I'm having troubles with my sound, it is working, but with an annoying beep in it. I already tried asound.conf and muting some channels, but no luck :( Anyone an Idea?
[04:53] <SGL> yoshiznit123: it gives a mac address and then arp 1
[04:53] <pppoe_dude> SGL, your interface doesnt seem to be configured
[04:53] <_jason> uXp: plugins usually refer to things like flashplayer, extensions are things like adblock, noscript, etc...
[04:53] <SGL> pppoe_dude: ok
[04:53] <SGL> pppoe_dude: is that bad?
[04:53] <josh> so how do i change
[04:53] <pppoe_dude> SGL, try typing "sudo network-admin"
[04:54] <pppoe_dude> SGL, see if you get any networkd devices showing up there
[04:54] <jrattner1> josh, you dont want to change that, what you want to do is copy the files from your memory stick to your home folder
[04:54] <dsas> treb0r, Frogzoo: I wouldn't rely on that being easy to fix, but I don't know the gimp codebase.
[04:54] <SGL> I get a LOT of "cannot open shared object"
[04:54] <SGL> in the terminal
[04:54] <niki> can someone tell me if 'apt-get dist-upgrade' is the way to make sure i'm running the latest release of dapper?
[04:54] <pppoe_dude> SGL, thats fine
[04:54] <jrattner1> josh, then from your home folder, type sudo mv TheWebsiteDirectory /var/ww/
[04:54] <uXp> where can i find the mozilla plugins dir, can't find it
[04:54] <josh> yep thats all i want to do but it wont let me
[04:54] <pppoe_dude> SGL, did it open tho?
[04:54] <jrattner1> josh, then from your home folder, type sudo mv -fr TheWebsiteDirectory /var/ww/
[04:54] <SGL> pppoe_dude: yes. 2 connections. Both with a red cross
[04:54] <josh> whats ,mv mean?
[04:55] <pppoe_dude> SGL, ok, 1 sec
[04:55] <jrattner1> josh, go the terminal and type 'man mv'
[04:55] <Frogzoo> josh: man mv
[04:55] <jrattner1> josh, its for moving files
[04:55] <SGL> pppoe_dude: I pressed DHCP and pressed activate
[04:55] <mike_> hello, can someone tell me what i need to apt-get for configure, make and make install to work?
[04:55] <pppoe_dude> SGL, ok good
[04:55] <Yoosah> niki: if you changed your /etc/apt/sources.list and did an apt-get update before that
[04:55] <jrattner1> josh, all the power is in the command line son : )
[04:55] <pppoe_dude> SGL, were you able to tell which one to activate?
[04:55] <uXp> nvm found them
[04:55] <niki> Yoosah, i did
[04:55] <kane77> Frogzoo, did you meen World of warcraft?
[04:55] <_jason> uXp: /usr/lib/firefox/plugins and ~/.mozilla/plugins , but you can install most plugins by just installing the appropriate package in synaptic
[04:55] <Frogzoo> mike_: build-essential
[04:55] <SGL> pppoe_dude: yep. Ehternet connection
[04:55] <dsas> treb0r, Frogzoo: Gimp is not a gnome app so doesn't use gnome-vfs. Though see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157770
[04:55] <Frogzoo> kane77: yup
[04:55] <Yoosah> niki: before apt-get dist-upgrade i mean, yes
[04:55] <pppoe_dude> SGL, ok i guess other was modem?
[04:55] <Frogzoo> !tell kane about wow
[04:56] <wastrel> WoW
[04:56] <pppoe_dude> SGL, your internet should** work now
[04:56] <usama> hi all
[04:56] <mike_> ok thank you
[04:56] <treb0r> dsas: thanks dude.
[04:56] <uXp> _jason:  im trying ot install java, says i don't got it
[04:56] <SGL> pppoe_dude: yep
[04:56] <kane77> Frogzoo, but is it free?
[04:56] <_jason> ubotu: tell uXp about java
[04:56] <Frogzoo> kane77: ah, nope
[04:56] <Frogzoo> !tell uXp about java
[04:56] <kane77> !wow
[04:56] <ubotu> To run WoW properly, Wine needs to be built with a patch, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WorldofWarcraft and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingWineFromSource. A deb is available but for Dapper only, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine
[04:56] <uXp> lol!
[04:57] <pppoe_dude> SGL, if it doesn't, try from terminal "sudo ifdown eth0 & sudo ifup eth0"
[04:57] <SGL> pppoe_dude: thanks heaps ;) It works!!!!
[04:57] <pppoe_dude> SGL, awesome! no problem
[04:57] <radar1976> how do I get mp3 support in ubuntu
[04:57] <SGL> Yay!
[04:57] <josh> so what command do i type for moving files from my  m.s. to the www folder?
[04:57] <treb0r> dsas: Looks liek gnome_vfs support for gimp is on the way
[04:57] <_jason> ubotu: tell radar1976 about mp3
[04:57] <usama> i have installed moodle, it says that i should type localhost/moodle/admin in the firefox but when i type this, i get this error; http://pastebin.com/708574
[04:57] <Frogzoo> radar1976: read ubotu's next
[04:57] <ruggy> from what distro did you all convert to ubuntu from?
[04:57] <jrattner1> ubotu tell radar1976 about restrictedFormats
[04:57] <Frogzoo> !fixxine
[04:57] <ubotu> fixxine is, like, On Dapper, check you have all the necessary packages: dpkg -l libxine-extracodecs w32codecs libdvdcss2 gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly totem-xine
[04:58] <dsas> treb0r: Maybe, it doesn't say how soon and indicates it may be removed though.
[04:58] <Frogzoo> radar1976: then consider install amarok
[04:58] <radar1976> I have amarok installed
[04:58] <radar1976> no play streams...
[04:58] <Frogzoo> radar1976: then you're missing the above pkgs
[04:58] <SGL> I am going to enjoy my online xubuntu. See you all later!
[04:58] <jrattner1> radar1976, type !restricted for the answer
[04:58] <SGL> Thanks pppoe_dude!!!
[04:58] <josh> so what command do i type for moving files from my  m.s. to the www folder?
[04:58] <radar1976> !restricted
[04:58] <treb0r> dsas: ah well. It's not that important, just wondered why it was missing. In KDE, all apss can use fish://
[04:58] <ubotu> restricted is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats. This page's intent is to enable you to play most non-free media formats that are not DRM encoded. Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats.
[04:58] <pppoe_dude> SGL, NP
[04:58] <niki> do i need to restart after doing a dist-upgrade?
[04:58] <radar1976> ok I will check this out
[04:59] <_jason> niki: if your kernel got upgraded, yes
[04:59] <Frogzoo> josh: sudo mv folder /var/www
[04:59] <niki> _jason, k thx :D
[04:59] <errpast-wc> What's recommended way to get syntax highlighting when editing a perl script?
[04:59] <jrattner1> Frogzoo, what about -f?
[04:59] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: with vim?
[04:59] <errpast-wc> Am striking out with vim and gedit
[04:59] <usama> can anyone help me about that moodle error?
[04:59] <jrattner1> : )
[04:59] <DanielC> Can anyone recommend totem-xine or totem-gstreamer?
[04:59] <wastrel> <3 vi
[04:59] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: edit /etc/vimrc and enable syntax highlighting
[04:59] <errpast-wc> newbie, so I'm sure it's simple.  Have tried a couple .vimrcs off web
[04:59] <apokryphos> DanielC: xine
[04:59] <Nightwish1986> Hello there, I'm having troubles with my sound, it is working, but with an annoying beep in it. I already tried asound.conf and muting some channels, but no luck :( Anyone an Idea?
[04:59] <errpast-wc> apokryphos: will try.  thx
[05:00] <jrattner1> DanielC, but vlc will run everything
[05:00] <rixxon> how to get nautilus to preview mp3s like ogg vorbies?
[05:00] <DanielC> apokryphos: Thanks. Any idea why gstreamer is the defult?
[05:00] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: it's near the top, one of the first things.
[05:00] <Sphygmos> hey.. i'm trying to get ubuntu working with xinerama.. i've read the wiki and forum threads.. i've tried a number of different changes to my xorg.conf file and nothing seems to work.. can anyone please help?
[05:00] <Vissud2> found  a work around for my microphone problem
[05:00] <apokryphos> DanielC: it is in breezy, not in dapper I presume....
[05:00] <Vissud2> i use the soundcard-plugin for xmms
[05:00] <Vissud2> and use xmms to play the microphone input
[05:00] <Vissud2> and it's in stereo, which is a nice surprise
[05:00] <Frogzoo> rixxon: I think it's in the Restricted wiki
[05:00] <DanielC> jrattner1: I'll install vlc too. It doesn't run everything, but it runs more things than the others.
[05:01] <errpast-wc> apokryphos: hmm. my /etc/vimrc is empty file.  Am running Ubuntu BB
[05:01] <rixxon> Frogzoo: think i checked it out, oh well, lets try it again ;)
[05:01] <jrattner1> DanielC, the interace is ugly but the code is strong it will run more than all the other players in most instances
[05:01] <errpast-wc> I'll grab one and try
[05:01] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: erm, is vim installed?
[05:01] <errpast-wc> yes.  vim runs fine
[05:01] <josh> how do i change directory to filesystem
[05:01] <DanielC> jrattner1: Yes, that's what I find too. So I use vlc as my last resort.
[05:01] <blaaaat> NoUse, well aptitude is more intelligent but couldn't solve it. I have some problems with (dependency) with xfce4 libs and samba. Is there a way I could just remove/uninstall the current ones from my system?
[05:02] <josh> how do i change directory to filesystem
[05:02] <jrattner1> josh, cd destination
[05:02] <josh> yeh
[05:02] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: d'oh, I mean /etc/vim/vimrc
[05:02] <[Ex0r] > does ubuntu come default with a compiler installed? I was trying to compile xchat and it says no suitable cpp compiler found
[05:02] <_jason> rixxon: you need mpg321 I believe
[05:02] <josh> what destination would the file system be
[05:02] <||arifaX> i want to make a user defined command for .7z in nautilus I tried 7za x  but I need to parse the filename, whats the variablle for it?
[05:02] <Frogzoo> rixxon: mpg321 and vorbis-tools
[05:02] <josh> at the moment its at home
[05:02] <jrattner1> josh, take a look at http://www.reallylinux.com/docs/basic.shtml
[05:02] <jrattner1> josh, it should help you a little : )
[05:02] <josh> ta
[05:03] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , why are you trying to compile xchat its in the repos
[05:03] <[Ex0r] > jratnner the one in the repos is xchat-gnome.
[05:03] <Sphygmos> has anyone here gotten dual displays to work on ubuntu?
[05:03] <rixxon> Frogzoo: yea, found it, thanks!
[05:03] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , you need to add the other repos, which have TONS of more software
[05:03] <neoncode> How do you set flags in sudoers???

[05:04] <[Ex0r] > k, thanks
[05:04] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , make sure you reload after you edit your /etc/apt/sources
[05:04] <zax1> heya,   if i have already windows 2000 installed on a computer with one drive and one partition, how do "repartition" to add a linux partition and install ubuntu ?
[05:04] <niki> anyone had any luck running cinelerra on ubuntu?
[05:04] <_mali_> all: can i change bootsplash theme in 6.06?
[05:04] <uXp> is i make a symbolic link to put a file from a certain dir to another and it makes a file into the destination folder, can i delete the other folder w/o screwing things up?
[05:04] <uXp> if*
[05:04] <usama> can anyone help me about that moodle error?
[05:04] <jrattner1> zax1, i would recomend the qparted live cd
[05:05] <Frogzoo> zax1: first defrag, then boot the live cd & run qparted to reduce your windows partition - then install
[05:05] <[Ex0r] > jrattner1: you mean restart ?
[05:05] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , no in synaptic you will see an option to reload
[05:05] <errpast-wc> john@poacher:/etc/vim$ vi vimrc
[05:05] <errpast-wc> "example" [New File] 
[05:05] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , or update i forget what it is
[05:05] <zax1> i wau mean the ubuntu live cd, or is this a stand alone qparted cd ?
[05:05] <blaaaat> how can I really forcefully remove libs/archives?
[05:06] <[Ex0r] > im in synaptic, im not seeing any of the stuff its talking about
[05:06] <errpast-wc> apokryphos: I can't seem to edit vimrc?
[05:06] <zax1> i wau = do you
[05:06] <Subhuman> blaaaat, what do you mean?
[05:06] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: what do you mean?
[05:06] <Frogzoo> uXp: if you create a symlink, you can delete the symlink (with rm) without touching the file it points to
[05:06] <Tomze> zax1: partitioning magick does a great job when it comes to resizeing ntfs.... but its not free in any way
[05:06] <Subhuman> blaaaat, in apt?
[05:06] <tubbie> I have no sound
[05:06] <errpast-wc> I don't understand "example" [New File] 
[05:06] <uXp> Frogzoo:  what you mean rm?
[05:06] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: huh?
[05:06] <blaaaat> Subhuman, I borked my dapper upgrade and I have trouble with some upgrade libs. And yes I mean in apt or dpkg
[05:06] <errpast-wc> That's exactly my response.
[05:06] <Frogzoo> uXp: man rm
[05:07] <Subhuman> well blaaaat , what error are you getting?
[05:07] <zax1> what the minimum partiion siz e for kubuntu ?
[05:07] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: no, as in, when do you get that?
[05:07] <Subhuman> remember pastebin it
[05:07] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: are you editing with sudo?
[05:07] <Frogzoo> blaaaat: reinstall
[05:07] <errpast-wc> >vi vimrc
[05:07] <zax1> and can it read from an ntfs partition
[05:07] <zax1> ?
[05:07] <Tomze> yes
[05:07] <jrattner1> zax1, use the live cd
[05:07] <Frogzoo> zax1: I reckon 20gig is comfortable gui envt, though not minimum
[05:07] <voland> hi! can anybody help me with  local repo?
[05:07] <blaaaat> Frogzoo, then I'll loose all my installed programs, data and files. I can't do that. The programs wouldn't be the problem, but the data would be
[05:07] <Fastly> does anyone here know how to enable the mysql extension for php?
[05:08] <jrattner1> voland, local repo?
[05:08] <uXp> Frogzoo:  cause i installed a java plugins for java but the original folder is on my desktop and i symbolic linked it into my firexo plugin dir, so im wondering if i can delete the folder on my desktop
[05:08] <errpast-wc> apokryphos: both with and without
[05:08] <errpast-wc> When I more the file
[05:08] <zax1> jratt, do u mean the kubuntu live cd ?
[05:08] <blaaaat> Subhuman, dependency problems, leaving unconfigured (xfce4... stuff, samba)
[05:08] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: without of course won't work since the file's in /etc
[05:08] <Frogzoo> blaaaat: so backup your data before installing - & this time create a separate /home to keep your data separate from OS
[05:08] <errpast-wc> then try to go to vi from more
[05:08] <errpast-wc> vi -c 1 vimrc"example" [New File] 
[05:08] <errpast-wc> Hit ENTER or type command to continue
[05:08] <jrattner1> zax1, nope qparted live cd
[05:08] <[Ex0r] > jrattner1: that site i went to is similar to mine, but i have no settings button
[05:08] <errpast-wc> apokryphos: yup
[05:08] <jrattner1> zax1, google it its a good tool to have
[05:08] <mike_> When i run some .deb packages thay say there is a "later version available in a software channel". Where do i find this software channel?
[05:08] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , hold on
[05:08] <uXp> !howtogoogleit.com
[05:08] <zax1> u wouldnt have a link any where , would you ? and is it open source? and can it deal with ntfs ?
[05:08] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: are you sure you know how to use vim?
[05:08] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, uXp

[05:10] <errpast-wc> Am looking at the vimrc now.  Seeing what to uncomment
[05:10] <Frogzoo> uXp: if i understand :    symlink.file -> desktop.file                if you delete desktop.file - things will break cos symlink.file will be left pointing to a non existent file
[05:10] <blaaaat> Subhuman, error processing xffm4, trying to overwrite /usr/bin/xfsamba, which is also in xfce.... dpkg error code (1)

[05:11] <zax1> i am much obliged
[05:11] <tubbie> How do I set gnome to display the border only when moving windows?
[05:11] <uXp> Frogzoo:  thx so i should put it in a folder where i won't delete it correct?
[05:11] <[Ex0r] > you mean http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 ?
[05:11] <Frogzoo> zax1: btw, filesystem resizing is prone to failure - so backup anything important first
[05:11] <tubbie> !mp3
[05:11] <ubotu> I heard mp3 is a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:11] <Frogzoo> uXp: that would be best
[05:11] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , no i dont mean that literally i mean past the information from that website into gedit
[05:11] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , then type sudo apt-get update
[05:11] <[Ex0r] > i was correcting your url :)
[05:11] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , ah ok : )
[05:12] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , then you should see xchat and TONS of other software
[05:12] <[Ex0r] > nope
[05:12] <PlHL> What's the easiest way to upgrade to Dapper from Hoary ?
[05:12] <[Ex0r] > still only finding xchat-gnom
[05:12] <[Ex0r] > gnome*
[05:12] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , did you did 'sudo apt-get update' ?
[05:12] <Frogzoo> !tell PlHL about upgrade
[05:13] <[Ex0r] > yes
[05:13] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , did you save the changes to the sources.lst file
[05:13] <[Ex0r] > yes
[05:13] <PlHL> But it's not breezer, Frogzoo
[05:13] <Frogzoo> PlHL: make sure you don't "leapfrog" releases -> hoary -> breezy -> dapper
[05:13] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , i know why :) i made a booboo
[05:13] <PlHL> I've already tried that in the wiki link
[05:13] <spikeb> breezer?
[05:13] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , the file is /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:13] <jrattner1> [Ex0r] , not .lst
[05:14] <leafw> has anyone installed xgl on powerpc laptops ?

[05:14] <Frogzoo> !fixxine
[05:14] <apokryphos> tubbie: check the faq
[05:14] <ubotu> fixxine is probably On Dapper, check you have all the necessary packages: dpkg -l libxine-extracodecs w32codecs libdvdcss2 gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly totem-xine

[05:15] <ubotu> I heard faq is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonQuestions
[05:15] <uXp> now its telling me i can't replace the file
[05:15] <Gambit--> this hardware only comes with an rpm, am I going to have a nightmare trying to get it running on Ubuntu 5.10?
[05:15] <leafw> spikeb : by binary packages you mean from apt-get, or for the graphics card ?
[05:15] <Tomcat_> Gambit--: For hardware, probably yes.
[05:15] <uXp> i moved the file into my home dir then tried to link it back tp the plugins and it won't let me
[05:15] <errpast-wc> apokryphos: perfect
[05:15] <spikeb> leafw: i mean for the xgl packages
[05:15] <errpast-wc> thanks for patience
[05:15] <aimaz> i've noticed some people's Xchat uses a tree view to show servers & channels etc. I am using the latest dapper package is the one with the tree view a different package?
[05:15] <priest__> hi all, anyone know how to launch synaptic as a normal user and have the rights toinstall software ?
[05:15] <errpast-wc> syntax highlighting working
[05:15] <spikeb> leafw: all the packages i found were i386 only
[05:15] <apokryphos> cool :)
[05:16] <jrattner1> uXp, what plugin are you trying to install
[05:16] <tubbie> How do I set gnome to display the border only when moving windows?
[05:16] <Gambit--> Tomcat_, as in, it is going to be a nightmare?
[05:16] <Gobfrey> can anyone help me with VMWare Player?  It suddenly stopped working :(
[05:16] <leafw> spikeb : there is a xserver-xgl package at the moment on the universe repos
[05:16] <DrBanzai> Any idea why my windows app (run under wine) can't find my cdrom drive?
[05:16] <uXp> java, plz don't !java its annoyin
[05:16] <errpast-wc> apokryphos: that weird error seemed to be related to the .vimrc I had put in ~
[05:16] <errpast-wc> Now all is fine
[05:16] <mindamp> how do i figure out what package version is currently installed?
[05:16] <Frogzoo> Gambit--: you'd be much better to compile from source if there's no suitable deb
[05:16] <errpast-wc> This is a veyr helpful forum
[05:16] <errpast-wc> thx again
[05:16] <Tomcat_> Gambit--: Really depends... it might just work.. but it also might be a nightmare, yes.
[05:16] <spikeb> woah
[05:16] <leafw> spikeb : I was wondering if anyone has installed it, I assume someone has !
[05:16] <spikeb> leafw: you're right!
[05:16] <jrattner1> errpast-wc, this is an irc channel :)
[05:16] <Frogzoo> DrBanzai: winecfg -> devices
[05:16] <leafw> spikeb : I ponder too xDDD
[05:16] <Gambit--> Frogzoo, It's an LSI20320, and I haven't figured out if the source drivers are the same or equivilient to the ones on the HP website :|
[05:16] <mindamp> anyone?
[05:17] <apokryphos> errpast-wc: really?
[05:17] <uXp> aimaz:  you sure you have xchat , not xchat-gnome
[05:17] <leafw> spikeb : and xgl or aixgl ? what may be better for ppc ?
[05:17] <spikeb> leafw: i have no experience with either
[05:17] <aimaz> uXp, possibly... I'll check
[05:17] <leafw> spikeb : aiglx supports several ATI cards, which powerbooks have

[05:18] <ticc> hi there. i have upgraded from breezy to dapper and now i'm unable to run mozilla firefox. It gives me just "bus error". I tried do reinstall that app with --purge option but it didn't help. What should i do?
[05:18] <Subhuman> Apple15, no, cron is exactly for that purpose
[05:19] <mindamp> how do i figure out what package version is currently installed?
[05:19] <mindamp> for say php
[05:19] <mindamp> and mysql
[05:19] <Subhuman> Apple15, may i ask what is wrong with crontab
[05:19] <Subhuman> mindamp, try "php -v"

[05:19] <Sphygmos> hey.. i'm trying to get xinerama working on ubuntu.. i've got an intel integrated gfx card with a vga and dvi port.. will this be able to split displays? when i ran lspci this is what it showed: 0000:00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 945G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)

[05:20] <jrattner1> Gobfrey, whats the problem?
[05:20] <Apple15> Subhuman - I dont have privileges to use the cron daemon :(
[05:20] <mindamp> no matching packages found.. yet it is installed and working
[05:20] <mindamp> guessi  could always check /etc
[05:20] <mindamp> thanks for nothing guys
[05:20] <jrattner1> apakatt, sudo
[05:20] <Subhuman> Apple15, everyone has priv. to use crontab
[05:20] <apokryphos> mindamp: please be kind to helpers in the channel
[05:20] <uXp> anyone know how i can delete a file that says " cannot move <file> to the trash because you don not have permission to change it or it's parent folder?"
[05:20] <Apple15> medusa-s2% crontab -e
[05:20] <Apple15> You (msn05) are not allowed to use this program (crontab)
[05:20] <jrattner1> uXp, sudo rm
[05:20] <mindamp> helpers?

[05:21] <BrainDamaged> axsas
[05:21] <Gobfrey> jrattner1: VMWare player suddely stopped working.  It opens its window, opens the 'choose file' window, then just hangs.
[05:21] <BrainDamaged> sorry about that...
[05:21] <uXp> jrattner1:  what rm?
[05:21] <jrattner1> Gobfrey, did it previously work
[05:21] <Subhuman> Apple15, you spoke to your sysadmin? i am suprised they wont let you run cron
[05:21] <BrainDamaged> Anyone into fedora redhat?
[05:21] <Beta_M> !deb
[05:21] <uXp> jrattner1:  ah remove?
[05:21] <jrattner1> uXp, use the rm command it deletes files: type man rm for more information
[05:21] <amarokker> Hi, i am having some trouble setting up sendmail- is it very difficult to configure?
[05:21] <apokryphos> BrainDamaged: nope, should we be?
[05:21] <Frogzoo> BrainDamaged: not anymore...
[05:21] <Gobfrey> jrattner1: yes it did.  I reinstalled it.
[05:21] <Subhuman> Apple15, you could run a python script to run a command every so many seconds
[05:22] <Apple15> ok thanks
[05:22] <Subhuman> and jus leave the script running in the background with &
[05:22] <jrattner1> Gobfrey, unfortunealy i dont know much about VMware so i cant helpy ou
[05:22] <josh> why is it when i right click var/www it says you are not the owner and you cannot change these permissions
[05:22] <Gobfrey> jrattner1: thanks anyway
[05:22] <BrainDamaged> Okay, how to setup & run cron?
[05:22] <jrattner1> josh, because its own by root and you nautilus is running as the user you are
[05:22] <jrattner1> josh, once again, use the mv command
[05:22] <Frogzoo> josh: read ubuotu's pm - for the 2nd time

[05:22] <jrattner1> josh, sudo mv -fr

[05:23] <_Mr_Denix_> hello ! i have downloaded ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.iso  . if I use CD/DVD Creator under ubuntu to burn the iso, will it make it bootable and ready to use for the instalation of xubuntu ?  thanks
[05:23] <Xamusk> hello

[05:23] <Pasteurized> hi all
[05:23] <josh> i dont get what allk that means
[05:23] <jrattner1> priest__, odd it will ONLY run as root
[05:23] <Xamusk> I'm having some problems with touchpad in dapper
[05:23] <jrattner1> uXp, all is good now?
[05:23] <Subhuman> _Mr_Denix_,  you need the xubuntu iso
[05:23] <larry> is it possible to dist-upgrade from sarge to ubuntu?
[05:23] <Subhuman> larry, no i don't think so.
[05:23] <aimaz> so uXp, Subhuman i have 2.6.1-0ubuntu2 of the xchat package (not xchat-gnome), what version has the tree thing?
[05:23] <uXp> jrattner1:  yea i removed it and redid the move file to dir command
[05:23] <_Mr_Denix_> Subhuman   ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.iso   this is what i have
[05:23] <DrBanzai> So...how is Dapper behaving, overall?
[05:23] <Pasteurized> help ! I cant hear any sound since I have set the "hibernate" mode !

[05:24] <tenco> when i want to use mail notification with pop3, i can't select ssl (it's greyed out), despite this pop3-account works in evolution with ssl.

[05:24] <Xamusk> it enters in a state that it makes click-and-drag everytime, and the tap-to-click does not work too
[05:24] <BrainDamaged> How do I setup cron?
[05:24] <Subhuman> DrBanzai, great, stable as hell.
[05:24] <Frogzoo> _Mr_Denix_: later m8
[05:24] <priest__> jrattner1:  i am logged in as a normal user and when i run it from the command line it will not load i get a GTK2 error, but when i add it to the panel it does not prompt me for the root password, so its in read only mode
[05:24] <Subhuman> BrainDamaged, you mean add a cron job?
[05:24] <Subhuman> !cron
[05:24] <DrBanzai> Subhuman, Glad to hear it!
[05:24] <BrainDamaged> Need help on bash shell scripts?
[05:24] <ubotu> hmm... cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. There is a HOW-TO located at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[05:24] <jrattner1> josh, to move files to your http directory, go the command line and type: sudo mv -fr DirectoryYouWantToMove /var/www/
[05:24] <uXp> aimaz:  i have 2.6.1
[05:25] <jrattner1> priest__, type sudo synaptic
[05:25] <Subhuman> BrainDamaged, look at the !cron i just posted.
[05:25] <BrainDamaged> Yeah, add a cron job
[05:25] <uXp> aimaz:  try draggind the sides, sometimes they don't show up
[05:25] <josh> how do i find what directory it is
[05:25] <jrattner1> priest__, then enter the root password
[05:25] <blaaaat> Frogzoo, can I just copy my entire /etc/ and /home (and maybe my game directories) directly into my new installation?
[05:25] <Xamusk> however, a USB mouse works just fine
[05:25] <Dawid[Programmer> Hey every1
[05:25] <amarokker> Hello, any help on how to get sendmail working will really be helpful :D
[05:25] <spangley234> hi
[05:25] <aimaz> uXp, i have a channel list already, it's just not the tree thing it's the old style tab buttons
[05:25] <jrattner1> josh, ?
[05:25] <niki> so is there an expected release date for edgy eft?
[05:25] <uXp> ah
[05:25] <uXp> aimaz:  do this
[05:25] <Kyral_FreeBSD> October I think
[05:25] <gteppel> I run a linux server on my home LAN (it acts as a internet router/firewall). I can connect to my work network using VPN, however I often find myself on a wireless network that only allows 80/443 outbount, to get around this so I could still connect to my linux box I ran sshd off of 443. I've been able to tunnel many services using SSH tunelling, except VPN because it uses other protocols besides TCP/UDP, I think PPTP VPN uses the GRE Protocol, I'm not su
[05:25] <gteppel> re what IPSEC VPN uses. Anyways does anybody see a way I can connect to my work's VPN within this restricted wireless network?
[05:25] <niki> nice
[05:25] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I THINK
[05:25] <jrattner1> niki, yes periodic releases every 6 months i believe
[05:26] <Sphygmos> can anyone please help me setup ubuntu with dual displays?
[05:26] <Kyral_FreeBSD> As in don't take my word as god
[05:26] <josh> yep, i need to copy form my memory stick what directory would that be called
[05:26] <Frogzoo> blaaaat: /etc - no, /home - mostly yes unless you have probs, games - yes, most likely
[05:26] <amarokker> !sendmail
[05:26] <ubotu> amarokker: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:26] <niki> so octorber, maybe december....sounds good to me :D
[05:26] <niki> *october
[05:26] <uXp> Sphygmos:  what you running nvidia?
[05:26] <Kyral_FreeBSD> sendmail == a bitch
[05:26] <spikeb> leafw: i am going to set up xgl/compiz right now
[05:26] <yggdrasil> hello guys, i broke my gnome. i had kde up and runing and changed the theme settings and now gnome is not functional. i created a new user and gnome works fine for it. Where are those settings stored so i can wipe them out and copy over from the new ~
[05:26] <jrattner1> josh, copy it from the meory stick to your home direcotry
[05:26] <josh> yea
[05:26] <jrattner1> josh, then move it from there
[05:26] <amarokker> Kyral_FreeBSD: mind suggesting a better one then?
[05:26] <KyoLptp`> aiglx ftw
[05:26] <Frogzoo> blaaaat: allow the new install to setup /etc - then once install is finished, you might want to copy over some of your old/edited /etc/files, or modify the new ones
[05:26] <Kyral_FreeBSD> MTA?
[05:26] <Xamusk> for example, now everytime I try to move the cursor, it makes as if middle-clicking and drag
[05:27] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Depends on what you need it for
[05:27] <jrattner1> josh, sudo mv -fr /home/LoginName/Website /var/www
[05:27] <amarokker> apt-get install mta ?
[05:27] <Dawid[Programmer> Can sum1 tell me which is the best for dual booting, installing windows first or ubuntu first
[05:27] <uXp> aimaz:  go to View (from xchat) then Layout, then Tree
[05:27] <Frogzoo> Kyral_FreeBSD: sendmail/postfix
[05:27] <jrattner1> sendmail gross
[05:27] <aimaz> uXp, aha, thanks very much
[05:27] <tr1gg3r> Dawid[Programmer: windows first
[05:27] <aimaz> :D
[05:27] <amarokker> mail transfer agent- which one?
[05:27] <jrattner1> postifx : )
[05:27] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Frogzoo: Howtoforge has a Howto for it
[05:27] <pppoe_dude> Dawid[Programmer, windows second.
[05:27] <zanzabuntu> i'm running ubuntu on qemu under winxp until i get off my arse and get some cd-rs. do i need to install a firewall while in an emulation layer?
[05:27] <Frogzoo> jrattner1: sendmail = rocks
[05:27] <uXp> aimaz:  yup no probl
[05:27] <Ng> Dawid[Programmer: windows first and try to leave a decent amount of spare space for ubuntu so you don't have to wait while it resizes
[05:27] <Dawid[Programmer> okay kl
[05:27] <jrattner1> Frogzoo, sendmail = the biggest whole a server can have
[05:27] <uXp> Sphygmos:  what you running nvidia?
[05:27] <pppoe_dude> Dawid[Programmer, just so GRUB can handle everything :P GRUB>windows booter
[05:27] <blaaaat> Frogzoo, uhm, you mean the install can 'fix' my current installation or will it delete everything and start over?
[05:27] <Dawid[Programmer> And then will i use GRUB to handle the booting?
[05:27] <Frogzoo> jrattner1: chroot
[05:27] <jrattner1> Frogzoo, why dont you just enable annonymous ftp as root if your going to run sendmail
[05:28] <jrattner1> Frogzoo, true
[05:28] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Frankly if i need to send mail from a script, if its bash then I use MuttNG (with Libestmp). If its Perl then I use Net::SMTP
[05:28] <jrattner1> jail it up
[05:28] <Xamusk> anyone has a fix for that?
[05:28] <jrattner1> Kyral_FreeBSD, why not just pipe directly to sendmail from perl
[05:28] <spikeb> brb
[05:29] <amarokker> Kyral_FreeBSD: Thats nice to know and quite useful if you happen to be a hardened linux-user....and I am not one.
[05:29] <amarokker> :(
[05:29] <niki> is there an apt-get command to update a particular program (e.g., fluxbox) to the newest version, without uninstalling and reinstalling?  or is it a different process for every application?
[05:29] <pppoe_dude> niki, apt-get install fluxbox
[05:29] <jrattner1> or upgrade
[05:30] <niki> pppoe_dude, that's it? you just install it again
[05:30] <pppoe_dude> niki, apt-get upgrade will update the whole system
[05:30] <Kyral_FreeBSD> jrattner1: why? Like I said there is a module in Perl for it
[05:30] <niki> pppoe_dude, oh, ok, good...i'm actually doing that right now :D
[05:30] <pppoe_dude> niki, install will look for the new version and upgrade fluxbox
[05:30] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Hell its in the Core Modules
[05:30] <jrattner1> Kyral, ive never heard of the module any chance you have a link im just curious abou tit
[05:30] <Tomze> dont ubuntu come with aptitude yet?
[05:30] <Kyral_FreeBSD> jrattner1: perldoc Net::SMTP
[05:30] <tubbie> How do I set gnome to display the border only when moving windows?
[05:30] <josh> ok
[05:30] <jrattner1> Kyral_FreeBSD, thanks
[05:30] <tenco> what are the chances that mail-notification was compiled without ssl support for dapper?
[05:30] <niki> pppoe_dude, thx :)
[05:31] <gnomefreak> niki: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will update everything or after running the sudo apt-get update you can run sudo apt-get upgrade <packagename>
[05:31] <jrattner1> tenco, sim it works with gmail which uses SSL
[05:31] <josh> my terminal is in home directory, so i tyoe this sudo mv - fr /ludlows/ /var/www/
[05:31] <jrattner1> tenco, *slim
[05:31] <Gambit--> How do I tell what hardware support I have compiled into my current kernel?  It's the default Ubuntu 5.10 one, is that listed anywhere?
[05:31] <josh> that will copy the file?
[05:31] <niki> gnomefreak, so to update _just_ fluxbox, i would do 'sudo apt-get update' and then 'sudo apt-get upgrade fluxbox' ?
[05:31] <Ng> josh: mv moves files, cp copies them
[05:31] <jrattner1> josh, is ludlows the directory of the website?
[05:31] <josh> yeh
[05:31] <wastrel> tenco:  there's no ssl support for mail-notification
[05:31] <gnomefreak> niki: yes
[05:31] <wastrel> tenco:  i'm using gnubiff instead
[05:31] <niki> gnomefreak, got it, thx :)
[05:32] <tenco> wastrel: thanks
[05:32] <jrattner1> josh, to COPY it there use cp -fr /home/UserName/ludlows /var/ww
[05:32] <pppoe_dude> gnomefreak, is apt-get install <package name> different than apt-get upgrade <package name> when the package is already installed?
[05:32] <wastrel> well no ssl for imap anyway
[05:32] <jrattner1> josh, use mv to MOVE it there
[05:32] <Kyral_FreeBSD> whee blasting my server with Nessus
[05:32] <niki> yeah, what's the difference in apt-get install and apt-get upgrade?
[05:32] <obscurite> if make is failing to find X11/Intrinsic.h and X11/StringDefs.h then what dependency am i missing? I have xserver-xorg-dev
[05:32] <gnomefreak> pppoe_dude: apt-get install <packagename> wont install a package that is installed already it will tell you newest version is installed already
[05:32] <tenco> wastrel: no imap, i tried to use ssl with pop3
[05:32] <jrattner1> josh, do you want the directory there or just the file in the direcotory there?
[05:32] <Kyral_FreeBSD> niki: install installs one package (or more if listed)
[05:32] <zanzabuntu> i'm trying to see my pcmcia CF reader in ubuntu, any ideas?
[05:32] <Kyral_FreeBSD> upgrade updates everything
[05:32] <josh> directory
[05:32] <blitzfire> hello guys... i have a wierd problem: I can't bring up my loopback interface
[05:32] <obscurite> niki - the first installs one or more programs that you specify. the second offers to upgrade all packages that have updates
[05:33] <jrattner1> !hardware
[05:33] <ubotu> well, hardware is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:33] <blitzfire> ifup lo
[05:33] <blitzfire> SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
[05:33] <blitzfire> lo: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[05:33] <blitzfire> lo: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[05:33] <blitzfire> Failed to bring up lo.
[05:33] <wastrel> dunno from pop i'm all imap nowadays
[05:33] <jrattner1> zanzabuntu,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:33] <wastrel> but gnubiff works good
[05:33] <niki> obscurite, upgrade upgrades all packages that have updates...so what's the difference in upgrade and dist-upgrade?  because i thought that was what dist-upgrade did?
[05:33] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell blitzfire -about paste
[05:33] <jrattner1> imap is good :)
[05:33] <blitzfire> ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
[05:33] <blitzfire> SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
[05:33] <blitzfire> lo: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[05:33] <blitzfire> paste?
[05:33] <blitzfire> oh
[05:33] <blitzfire> sorry
[05:34] <obscurite> niki - dist-upgrade upgrades you from one version of the OS to the next. breezy -> dapper for the last release
[05:34] <gnomefreak> niki: dist-upgrade will upgrade things that upgrade wont
[05:34] <gnomefreak> obscurite: thats not true
[05:34] <niki> gnomefreak, but dist-upgrade takes waaaay longer, right?
[05:34] <Alex_BO> hello!i would like to compile a kernel with # make xconfig, but it says i haven't qt.how can i install it?
[05:34] <obscurite> gnomefreak - ok, then set the record straight
[05:34] <josh> jrattner1: i wanna copy the directory
[05:34] <gnomefreak> dist-upgrade has _nothing_ to do with upgrading versions
[05:34] <jrattner1> josh, yep then stick with what i said use cp instead of mv
[05:35] <blitzfire> sorry for pasting, anyway, my loopback interface is not coming up and I can't tell why...
[05:35] <niki> gnomefreak, that's not what i was told fifteen minutes ago when i asked how to upgrade to the newest version of dapper :/
[05:35] <gnomefreak> niki: not really but it will upgrade kernels if there is an updated version of your kernel installed
[05:35] <josh> so what would be the command
[05:35] <obscurite> anyone know what dependency i might be missing for X11/Intrinsic.h and X11/StringDefs.h ?
[05:35] <gnomefreak> obscurite: the thing that upgrades your version is changing the sources.list file
[05:35] <blitzfire> is there a kernel module or a daemon that handles loopback device?
[05:35] <obscurite> gnomefreak - thanks :)
[05:35] <gnomefreak> niki: what are you on right now breezy or dapper?
[05:36] <niki> gnomefreak, when you do a dist-upgrade, is your sources.list automatically changed?  i'm using dapper, pre-release...doing a dist-upgrade as we speak
[05:36] <gnomefreak> niki: no
[05:36] <pradeep> Alex_BO,  you could try make menuconfig
[05:36] <gnomefreak> niki: now dist-upgrade will grab the latest kernel for dapper adn so on
[05:36] <Alex_BO> pradeep, yes i know, but i would like using xconfig
[05:36] <niki> gnomefreak, i was doing a dist-upgrade to bring dapper to post-release status...is that worng?
[05:36] <niki> *wrong
[05:36] <gnomefreak> niki: if you run upgrade it will _not_ grab bewest kernel
[05:37] <gnomefreak> niki: no thats fine
[05:37] <Gambit--> Where do I go to find the hardware supported in the basic kernel for Breezy?
[05:37] <niki> gnomefreak, oh good...cuz its been doing it for like 25 minutes lol
[05:37] <gnomefreak> s/bewest/newest
[05:37] <niki> gnomefreak, so when dist-upgrade is done, it would be a good idea to update my sources.list?
[05:38] <gnomefreak> niki: it has alot of updates to do  think of it like this dist-upgrade is the same as if you clicked the red icon and opened up the gui updater
[05:38] <josh> jrattner1: so what would be the command
[05:38] <gnomefreak> niki: you dont have to touch your sources.list if you are running dapper
[05:38] <Frogzoo> is there any way to get my taskbar mail notifier to check for new mail without keeping the evolution window open?
[05:38] <niki> gnomefreak, sweet, thanks :)
[05:38] <gnomefreak> Frogzoo: mail-notifier
[05:38] <Sphygmos> does anyone here know anything about xinerama? or am i just being ignored
[05:38] <gnomefreak> Frogzoo: gnubiff
[05:39] <Frogzoo> gnomefreak: thx, I'll check it out
[05:39] <wastrel> <3 gnubiff
[05:39] <niki> Sphygmos, what's xinerama?
[05:40] <gnomefreak> !xinerama
[05:40] <ubotu> Check these URLs out and hopefully it works for you: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XineramaHowTo or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XineramaMultipleMonitors maybe  http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/xfree/Xinerama-HOWTO/
[05:40] <gnomefreak> eh
[05:40] <gnomefreak> niki: its to enable 2 montiers
[05:40] <[Ex0r] > !mp2
[05:40] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, [Ex0r] 
[05:40] <[Ex0r] > !mp3
[05:40] <gnomefreak> monitors even
[05:40] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, totally, a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:40] <jrattner1> josh, cp -fr
[05:40] <niki> gnomefreak, ah, bummer...i was hoping it was a decent video editor (which i've yet to find on linux)
[05:40] <venom> hi anyone home? :)
[05:41] <luc1fersflowers> Does anyone have any idea/s why amarok would switch my sound card back and forth on every song change???
[05:41] <Gambit--> hrm someone want to give me some pointers as to how I'd go about installing a new scsi card's device drivers in linux/ubuntu?
[05:41] <aimaz> niki, what about avidemux?
[05:41] <niki> aimaz, never heard of that one
[05:41] <uXp> Sphygmos:  i told oyu already, try reading my messages
[05:41] <aimaz> i was suprised that it did what i wanted easily
[05:41] <venom> why would i be getting this error when connecting to an austnet server?
[05:41] <aimaz> niki it's in apt iirc
[05:41] <tenco> wastrel: is gnubiff in main or universe/multiverse?
[05:41] <Tomze> niki: cinnelerra
[05:41] <venom> bottler bots are not welcomed on this network
[05:41] <venom> --- *** (G) Banned from AustNet: bottler bots are not welcomed on this network.
[05:41] <DaSkreech> does anyone know if the Desktop CD has a kernel deb on it?
[05:41] <wastrel> tenco:  universe
[05:41] <niki> Tomze, i really like cinelerra, but it crashes when i switch to ALSA on playback
[05:42] <Tomze> hmm
[05:42] <josh> says cannot stat
[05:42] <uXp> Sphygmos:  are you running nvidia!?
[05:42] <niki> Tomze, and i don't want to use OSS
[05:42] <[Ex0r] > so basically there is no way to get ubuntu to support mp3 ?
[05:42] <josh> says cp cannot stat
[05:42] <uXp> can anyone else see my messages?
[05:42] <niki> uXp, yes
[05:42] <DaSkreech> !tell [Ex0r]  about mp3
[05:42] <gnomefreak> venom: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or #debian-bots
[05:42] <venom> ok
[05:43] <gnomefreak> venom: #freenode would be also a good idea  if its freenode that gives you that
[05:43] <luc1fersflowers> Is there an audio channel i can join?
[05:43] <venom> nah austnet servers
[05:43] <jrattner1> josh, paste the exact command you used in here
[05:43] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell [Ex0r]  -about mp3
[05:43] <tenco> wastrel: nice. works as espected
[05:43] <josh> what was it
[05:43] <[Ex0r] > lmao thats two people now
[05:43] <gnomefreak> venom: freenode and people on it wont be much help i imagine
[05:44] <gnomefreak> [Ex0r] : read it ;)
[05:44] <venom> yeh got that right haha
[05:44] <jrattner> josh, josh, hit the up arrow to see the last command you typed
[05:44] <[Ex0r] > it says to get into the multiverse to look for stuff to play it
[05:45] <aimaz> [Ex0r] , i am listening to mp3 RIGHT NOW on ubuntu, i did it by reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:45] <truz_`24> Is there any command in X that you can run to determine which video driver you are currently using"?
[05:45] <Kryton> Hi, I've got a slight issue. Whenever I boot the display resolution is set correctly, but scales to be larger than my monitor. If I then use gnome-display-properties and set it lower then higher it all 'fits' with no problems. Any ideas how to get it to go 'first time'?
[05:45] <MisterN> hi
[05:45] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell [Ex0r]  about universe
[05:45] <josh> cp - fr /Ludlows/ /var/www/
[05:45] <luc1fersflowers> :(
[05:45] <DaSkreech> !tell [Ex0r]  about multiverse
[05:45] <gnomefreak> brb still
[05:45] <jrattner1> josh, typ sudo cp -fr /Ludlow /var/www/
[05:45] <gnomefreak> DaSkreech: ITS THE SAME ;)
[05:46] <gnomefreak> shoot
[05:46] <jrattner1> josh, (No space betwen the dash and fr)
[05:46] <gnomefreak> sorry caps
[05:46] <jrattner1> sudo cp -fr /Ludlows /var/www/
[05:46] <DaSkreech> gnomefreak: I know but some people freak out when they ask about mp3 and you show them restricted
[05:46] <DaSkreech> even though it's the same thing
[05:46] <Kryton> Any ideas anyone :-( ?
[05:46] <gnomefreak> DaSkreech:  i sent him universe factoid
[05:47] <DaSkreech> so anyone happen to know if the Desktop CD has a kernel deb on it?
[05:47] <syllogism> I know this isn't the proper place to ask this, but the people in #mysql aren't being very helpful. . .   I need to compile mysql without curses support.. I don't need any of the tools or the server, I just need the libraries. . is there a package maintainer or someone here that could help me out in here?
[05:47] <DaSkreech> syllogism: You could do a apt-get build-dep mysql
[05:47] <Red-Sox> in the gnome terminal, how do you change the color of the TEXT?
[05:47] <aimaz> syllogism, it should be just a normal configure, make, make install routine with --without-curses in the configure stage
[05:47] <tubbie> !mp3
[05:47] <ubotu> it has been said that mp3 is a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:47] <syllogism> aimaz, I'll give it a shot - thanks
[05:48] <Kryton> Red-Sox: create a new profile ;P
[05:48] <jrattner1> josh, any luck?
[05:49] <josh> no lol
[05:49] <nny> is there a way to diagnose load firewire drives in ubuntu?
[05:49] <pppoe_dude> Red-Sox, EDIT > current profike
[05:49] <Red-Sox> Kryton: No, I know that, but how do you change the text?
[05:49] <Red-Sox> But that's just the background color, isn't it?
[05:49] <jrattner1> josh, are you serious ...
[05:49] <pppoe_dude> Red-Sox, no
[05:49] <jrattner1> josh, what is your username on the system
[05:50] <josh> josh
[05:50] <jrattner1> josh, type this eactly: sudo cp -fr /home/josh/Ludlow /var/ww
[05:50] <Red-Sox> pppoe_dude: So, how do I change the text color?
[05:50] <jrattner1> josh, type this eactly: sudo cp -fr /home/josh/Ludlow /var/www
[05:50] <pppoe_dude> Red-Sox, colours-> text colour
[05:50] <syllogism> DaSkreech, I would try your method - but it doesn't match with what i'm doing. . . I need to cross-compile the mysql libraries so I can use them for windows development under linux
[05:50] <gareth> Does anyone here have experience with open box and gtk theme switch?
[05:50] <josh> directory is called Ludlow
[05:51] <josh> *Ludlows
[05:51] <jrattner1> josh, type this eactly: sudo cp -fr /home/josh/Ludlows /var/www
[05:51] <Red-Sox> pppoe_dude: k i see thanks
[05:52] <josh> ok
[05:52] <josh> it copied the folder but not the files
[05:52] <DaSkreech> syllogism: ok that fine
[05:52] <josh> its got a crosspber the files
[05:52] <jrattner1> josh, type cd /var/www/Ludlows then type ls to see if the file is there
[05:53] <syllogism> aimaz, it still tries to build with curses
[05:53] <Kryton> Anyone know how to stop Xorg scaling my desktop so it won't fit on one (if I use gnome-display-properties after boot it's fine, problem is it isn't persistent and I'm tiring of doing it manually every time)?
[05:53] <untwisted> Well you could write a script to do it on gnome loading
[05:53] <DaSkreech> so anyone happen to know if the Desktop CD has a kernel deb on it?
[05:53] <Kryton> untwisted, seems a bit of a hack ;P
[05:53] <josh> says permission denied
[05:53] <untwisted> It is :P
[05:53] <Kryton> syllogism, disable it in the source then or pass an argument to ./configure
[05:53] <untwisted> I'm not sure whats causing it
[05:54] <aimaz> syllogism, hmm, check the README file, it should tell you what the option is called
[05:54] <syllogism> aimaz, no argument for it.
[05:54] <NoUse> DaSkreech I don't think the desktop CD has any ebs
[05:54] <tubbie> How do I set gnome to display the border only when moving windows?
[05:54] <syllogism> and Kryton - I guess I'll have to give that a try, thanks
[05:54] <DaSkreech> It does in pool
[05:54] <untwisted> Whats your desktop size set to anyway?
[05:54] <Kryton> syllogism, the MySQL people are best to ask how to do that one
[05:55] <DanielC> Anyone have experience with the OEM install? After the installation is complete, and I've done all the configuration how do I tell Ubuntu that next time it boots it should ask the user for a username and password?
[05:55] <NoUse> !tell DanielC about oeminstall
[05:55] <niki> tubbie, someone in #gnome might know...i've got some good infos from them before
[05:55] <[Ex0r] > alright, now I gotta find a linux app that will allow me to interface with my mp3 player
[05:55] <syllogism> Kryton, I've been in #mysql for the past couple of hours. . no one is helping
[05:55] <Kryton> untwisted, it's 1400x1050 (laptop) and is fine if i set it using gnome-display-properties (i.e. set down to 1280 then up to 1400)
[05:55] <uXp> installed dual monitors =!] 
[05:55] <aimaz> [Ex0r] , is your player USB mass storage based?
[05:55] <untwisted> whats your xorg.conf look like?
[05:55] <untwisted> and what type of card are you using?
[05:55] <[Ex0r] > aimaz- yes'sir
[05:56] <hangfire> does anyone know how to log into NickServ automatically in Xchat or Konversation?
[05:56] <Kryton> ATI Mobility 9600
[05:56] <untwisted> Nice, acer laptop? ;)
[05:56] <[Ex0r] > hangfire in xchat, there is an option in server settings to automatically identify
[05:56] <aimaz> i haven't tried it with other devices, but amarok can interface with some devices, it's a KDE app but works fine in gnome too
[05:56] <Kryton> Well, it's one of those generic-Tiwanese ones that gets turned into Acer yes :-)
[05:56] <hangfire> ExOr, Ill try that
[05:56] <[Ex0r] > let me try amarok
[05:57] <untwisted> haha, I have a ferrari 3200 :)
[05:57] <[Ex0r] > i usually use rio music manager
[05:57] <jrattner1> hangfire, under server settings in xchat
[05:57] <gnomefreak> hangfire: in xchat there is an option for it if you open servers page clickt he server you want than click edit you will see the options where it says server password type you IRC users password
[05:57] <truz_`24> dmesg |grep fglrx
[05:57] <untwisted> anyway, any chance I could get a peek at your xorg.conf file?  It may be something in there.  Probably be best to email it though, if you don't mind, untwisted@gmail.com be my address.
[05:57] <Kryton> It's been pretty good for being 3 years old: DVD burner, 60Gb HD, etc. etc., cost about $1000 back then too (no wonder the company went bust)
[05:57] <Lorroya> whats up
[05:58] <hangfire> ok thx gnomefreak, Ill check that out now
[05:58] <untwisted> Acer went bust or the generic company did?
[05:58] <DaSkreech> NoUse: There are debs in the pool directory
[05:58] <Kryton> The generic company did
[05:58] <Kryton> Cool, I'll email it to you now - cheers for this :-) I've had a peek there before but not found much
[05:58] <jrattner1> josh, good now?
[05:58] <josh> no!
[05:58] <untwisted> Well, I'll admit I'm no expert so this may not help at all, but if my hunch is right we might be able to fix ya right up
[05:58] <Lorroya> jlsdajf
[05:58] <jrattner1> josh, are you retarted?
[05:58] <zanzabuntu> hmmmmmm, i'm not seeing ANYTHING about getting pcmcia working in ubuntu. any ideas?
[05:59] <josh> no lol
[05:59] <usama> hi all
[05:59] <Angelica> how yall doing
[05:59] <niki> zanzabuntu, my pcmcia card worked out of the box with ubuntu :P
[05:59] <tubbie> omg, I like Ubuntu dapper more than anything!!
[05:59] <Kryton> untwisted, sent the email :-) Thanks for this!
[05:59] <gnomefreak> jrattner1: thats a good way to get yourself banned
[05:59] <tubbie> this is really userfriendl!
[05:59] <zanzabuntu> niki, what sort of card?
[05:59] <zanzabuntu> i'm trying to get a CF reader wroking
[05:59] <niki> zanzabuntu, dell truemobile...found it in a drawer somewhere, i believe its cisco chipset
[05:59] <usama> has anyone use moodle or anyone has any information about moodle or is there any chat room for moodle?
[06:00] <zanzabuntu> ah ok
[06:00] <jrattner1> gnomefreak, Inquiring about the mental health of a person doesn't seem to be too bad
[06:00] <DaSkreech> NoUse: So basically the Desktop CD is of no help to me?
[06:00] <jrattner1> josh, /msg me ls /var/www
[06:00] <gnomefreak> jrattner1: first it has nothing to do with ubuntu support 2nd its not nice nor does it comply with the coc nor the guidelines
[06:01] <blaaaat> if one copies a file from pc1 to pc2 to pc3, will it also automatically copy the chown and chmod?
[06:01] <jrattner1> gnomefreak, coc?
[06:01] <flapane> hi
[06:01] <niki> code of conduct?
[06:01] <flapane> i have problems with new 2.6.16vanilla http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196524
[06:01] <josh> whats that do??
[06:01] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell jrattner1 -about coc
[06:01] <NoUse> DaSkreech there aren't any kernel debs on the desktop cd
[06:01] <palomer> I want to set an environment variable forever
[06:01] <gnomefreak> niki: yes
[06:02] <DaSkreech> NoUse: right so the cd is useless for my plan then :(
[06:02] <niki> yay i win
[06:02] <palomer> do I simply put export FOO=bar in my .bashrc?
[06:02] <NoUse> DaSkreech what are you trying to do?
[06:02] <aimaz> palomer, yes
[06:02] <dsewnr_> Could somebody tell me which editor support FTP, such as the "UltraEdit" on windows.
[06:02] <theine> palomer: are GUI applications supposed to be aware of it?
[06:02] <DaSkreech> I'm trying to reinstall a kenrel on a machine that panics upon decomprssion
[06:02] <zanzabuntu> hmmmm
[06:02] <theine> palomer: which variable do you want to set?
[06:02] <DaSkreech> Preferabbly without redownloading it since that would take all day
[06:03] <zanzabuntu> easier question: how do i get to my usb jumpdrive in ubuntu?
[06:03] <jrattner1> josh, it lists the files in the directory
[06:03] <Cynical> anyone know how to keep my pppd connectio from timing out
[06:03] <DaSkreech> and I'm going to dist-upgrade them to Dapper in a week or two
[06:03] <Mysta> zanzabuntu, mine auto mounts it
[06:03] <palomer> theine: BF_TIFF_LIB
[06:03] <Mysta> zanzabuntu, are you running gnome?
[06:03] <gnomefreak> zanzabuntu: mine automounts also
[06:03] <usama> can anyone guide me about moodle?
[06:03] <gnomefreak> usama: try joining #moodle
[06:04] <theine> palomer: To make sure that applications you start from the Gnome panel/menu are aware of it, declare the variable in ~/.gnomerc or system-wide in /etc/environment
[06:04] <Mysta> anyone know what vnc server works w/ XFCE? and can I do resumable sessions w/ it?
[06:04] <untwisted> Kryton, when you boot up what is the resolution set to?  The 1400x1050 or higher?
[06:04] <josh> apache-2 default and Ludlows
[06:04] <Cynical> my pppd connection stays up for about 1 minute then goes down
[06:04] <zanzabuntu> hmmmmm
[06:04] <usama> gnomefreak, hi, how are you
[06:05] <usama> gnomefreak, :)
[06:05] <zanzabuntu> maybe it's cause im in qemu on xp
[06:05] <gnomefreak> usama: fine
[06:05] <Cynical> have to eboot to reconnect
[06:05] <theine> palomer: if you only need to declare the variable for apps that you launch from the terminal, it suffices to declare it in ~/.bashrc
[06:05] <Kryton> untwisted, it's set to 1400x1050 but upscaled 4 times .. if you get me?
[06:05] <usama> gnomefreak, this is my another nick, i am linuxboyfriend (if you remember :)
[06:05] <usama> gnomefreak, ?
[06:05] <gnomefreak> i do
[06:05] <palomer> theine: I may also launch it from a run dialog
[06:05] <zanzabuntu> ergggg
[06:05] <usama> gnomefreak,  i use several nicks
[06:06] <Cynical> having usama as a nik isn't funny.. not at all
[06:06] <zanzabuntu> sooooo, if i make an ubuntu live cd, all my drives should be easily visible?
[06:06] <jrattner1> Cynical, why whats usama mean?
[06:06] <zanzabuntu> i'm trying to salvage an old xp drive that wont boot
[06:06] <Yoosah> Cynical: it is a very normal name, like john
[06:06] <linuxboyfriend> gnomefreak, now i think you can recognize me ;)
[06:06] <Jhair> Changelog for recent mozilla security update is not accessible from aptitude (see http://mandala.no-ip.info/~jtocancipa/mozilla_changelog_aptitude.jpg). Why?
[06:06] <zanzabuntu> and it's hard to plug two HD's into my laptop :D
[06:06] <blimpdude> Cynical, usama is just a name
[06:06] <blimpdude> + this belongs in offtopic
[06:07] <zanzabuntu> there are lots of people named usama
[06:07] <Kryton> zanzabuntu, you'll need to be careful about using NTFS
[06:07] <aimaz> palomer, if you want gui programs to be aware of it as well you can use .xinitrc i think
[06:07] <zanzabuntu> jost like there are lots of hispanics named jesus
[06:07] <zanzabuntu> :D
[06:07] <gnomefreak> guys back on topic please
[06:07] <DaSkreech> NoUse: Any ideas?
[06:07] <zanzabuntu> Kryton: how so?
[06:07] <Cynical> just made a comment, nothing more sorry
[06:07] <webmind> can anyone tell me why the firmware for the zd1201 is not included with ubuntu ?
[06:07] <DaSkreech> can I dpkg --configure linux-386 ?
[06:07] <zanzabuntu> Kryton: assuming the drive is visible, i should be able to drag files from the HD to a jumpdrive with no problems?
[06:08] <Kryton> zanzabuntu, writing to NTFS isn't very 'reliable' (as all information is gathered through reverse engineering), reading is fine though.
[06:08] <Cynical> anyway, back to my pain in the you know what pppd
[06:08] <DaSkreech> Well I know I can't do that since I tried but is there a way to do that?
[06:08] <blaat> how can I check if one dir is the same (incl. all files) as another dir? (to check if the copy was 100% succesfull?)
[06:08] <zanzabuntu> so dragging a file from ntfs to fat16/32 is ok though?
[06:08] <Cynical> zanzabuntu: yeah
[06:08] <orbin> DaSkreech: that's just a metapackage.  what are you doing?
[06:08] <zanzabuntu> cool
[06:08] <blaat> zanzabuntu, yes
[06:08] <Kryton> Yeah, FAT is fine
[06:08] <zanzabuntu> alrighty, off to find some cd-rs
[06:09] <zanzabuntu> all mine are burned :D
[06:09] <DaSkreech> orbin: I have a computer which panics right after kernel decompression
[06:09] <blaat> I just burnt a Dapper CD :)
[06:09] <DaSkreech> I want to replace/fix the kernel
[06:09] <aimaz> blaat, you can use dirdiff
[06:09] <AlinuxOS> hello I would like to upgrade to Ekiga 2.0.2 version. but http://ekiga.org/index.php?rub=5&path=ubuntu/dapper-i386   I can't fint any repo information
[06:09] <blaat> zanzabuntu, give it a lot of time, just try to use linux first
[06:09] <AlinuxOS> must I installa everything manually?
[06:09] <zanzabuntu> soooo, HD's are under dev. and like jump drives and stuff under media?
[06:09] <DaSkreech> I booted from a DesktopCd to get the kernel deb but apparently the deskop CDs don't have those
[06:10] <DaSkreech> so I need
[06:10] <zanzabuntu> or look under mounts?
[06:10] <DaSkreech> a new plan of attack
[06:10] <zanzabuntu> :D
[06:10] <Cynical> is there anyone here that can help?
[06:10] <blitzfire> guys, I have a really wierd problem
[06:10] <aimaz> blaat, sorry, just `diff dir1 dir2`
[06:10] <DaSkreech> AlinuxOS: What do you mean manually?
[06:10] <POVaddct> yeah, xubuntu 6.06 rocks! supports ipw3945 out of the box.
[06:10] <willmc> blitzfire: whats your problem

[06:12] <AlinuxOS> DaSkreech, I would like to install 2.0.2 version... here is 2.0.1.
[06:12] <DaSkreech> orbin: any ideas?
[06:12] <Kryton> Sphygmos, turn on sub-pixel rendering if you are on an LCD monitor
[06:12] <DaSkreech> AlinuxOS: Ahmm Sorry what of?
[06:12] <Tomze> nny: i got some... it works - but not all sorts of rais unless you use software raid
[06:12] <gnomefreak> AlinuxOS: for that version if you cant find a .deb for it than either wait for edgy in oct. or build it from tar
[06:13] <Kryton> Sphygmos, do it via Preferences -> Fonts panel :)
[06:13] <Tomze> nny: but it detects the drives and so on...
[06:13] <gnomefreak> AlinuxOS: dapper has 2.0.1_6
[06:13] <orbin> DaSkreech: not really sorry.  is this a new install?
[06:13] <nny> Tomze: i have an already built raid 0
[06:13] <nny> Tomze: trying to recover data
[06:13] <Tomze> nny: uhhh
[06:13] <DaSkreech> orbin: No Was working fine till two other machines in the lab litterally roasted
[06:13] <untwisted> Kryton, the xorg looks fine to me, you may want to remove some of the other display modes and see if that fixes it but it doesn't look like thats the problem.  I can modify the xorg file and send it back to you if you want.
[06:14] <DaSkreech> then this started throwing errors
[06:14] <AlinuxOS> gnomefreak, http://ekiga.org/index.php?rub=5&path=ubuntu/dapper-i386 here is 2.0.2
[06:14] <DaSkreech> I just found out the mouse has a short and was hot enough to cook eggs
[06:14] <tubbie> How do I set gnome to display the border only when moving windows?
[06:14] <aimaz> Kryton, is there a lot of difference between "best shapes" and "sub pixel rendering"?
[06:14] <Kryton> untwisted, I'll try dropping some display modes and see if that works. Thanks for looking
[06:14] <untwisted> no prob
[06:14] <DaSkreech> but that was messing with the BIOS
[06:15] <DaSkreech> I just need a way to get the kernel replaced or reinitalized
[06:15] <Kryton> aimaz, on an LCD yes
[06:15] <aimaz> i have an LCD

[06:16] <LjL> josh: ?
[06:17] <josh> Ljl?
[06:17] <untwisted> Kryton, was your desktop always this way or did it just start happening?  Also have you checked the desktop changer options?  Maybe its one of them?
[06:17] <LjL> josh: why spamming?
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> it pays to google a few linux begginner guides and check out the ubuntu homepage for tutorials
[06:17] <gnomefreak> AlinuxOS: regaurdless what that site says its not in dapper atm maybe it will be being backported but as of right now its not
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> Linux tip #1 - "THINK"
[06:17] <flapane> lol
[06:17] <aalya> Someone use XAMPP ? thanks
[06:18] <faisal_d> what about xampp?
[06:18] <DaSkreech> gnomefreak: Point to packages.ubuntu.com perhaps
[06:18] <Kryton> untwisted, it just 'started like this'; the desktop changer works but isn't persistent for some reason
[06:18] <LjL> !someone
[06:18] <gnomefreak> AlinuxOS: apt-cache policy ekiga   will tell you what version dapper has and what repo its in
[06:18] <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>

[06:19] <AlinuxOS> gnomefreak, which one link sorry?
[06:19] <DaSkreech> The one to rule them all
[06:19] <gnomefreak> faisal_d: no
[06:19] <faisal_d> gnomefreak: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx would do? right?
[06:20] <gnomefreak> AlinuxOS: the ekiga link i couldnt open it clicking on it
[06:20] <gnomefreak> lol i fixed it
[06:20] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell faisal_d -about nvidia
[06:20] <AlinuxOS> gnomefreak,  http://ekiga.org/index.php?rub=5&path=ubuntu/dapper-i386
[06:20] <faisal_d> gnomefreak thanx :)
[06:21] <DaSkreech> So more or less I have to reinstall the OS?
[06:21] <gnomefreak> faisal_d: yw
[06:22] <NoUse> zipola change the settings in the screensaver set up
[06:22] <zipola> NoUse: I've had the upper box not ticked all the time.
[06:23] <zipola> So it's not the screensaver.
[06:23] <owner> any one know how to set up new hp5650 printer?  Cannot seem to remove "default"? thanks
[06:23] <NoUse> zipola the screensaver and power settings are seperate
[06:23] <SAM_theman> Yo guys
[06:23] <SAM_theman> I am not able to play .wmv files
[06:24] <NoUse> !tell SAM_theman about wmv
[06:24] <SAM_theman> Its pissing me off only thing I see is distored colors with mplayer
[06:24] <bavalde> There was recently news about updated language packs for 6.06  -  do anyone have a reference or more info about this?
[06:24] <SAM_theman> I did that
[06:24] <untwisted> Well, I don't know what to tell ya Kryton, I can't figure out what the deal is!  Good luck figuring it out though!
[06:24] <zipola> NoUse, my power settings are all so that it won't black out during AC power.
[06:24] <Kryton> Cheers :-) I'll have a play! Again, thank for the help.
[06:24] <icedragon1> if I installed putty using synaptic and it installed some other required packages, how do I remove it AND those packages?
[06:25] <`out2lnch`untwis> no problem
[06:25] <NoUse> zipola what about the BIOS settings?
[06:25] <zipola> I didn't have this problem with 5.10.
[06:25] <zipola> So it couldn't probably be BIOS.
[06:25] <Ng> icedragon1: there's no automated way of doing that afaik, you'd need to see what it depends on and attempt to remove those too until it starts trying to remove core system things
[06:25] <icedragon1> thanks Ng
[06:25] <icedragon1> is there a log I can check to find out which ones it installed ?
[06:25] <Ng> icedragon1: you could use something like deborphan to work out which packages don't have anything depend on them, that can be quite a nice way of cleaning a system up, but again it's not very automated
[06:26] <icedragon1> that sounds like a nifty program Ng
[06:26] <Ng> icedragon1: you could do "apt-cache depends putty" and you'll see the top level of dependencies it pulled in
[06:27] <tubbie> this is really userfriendl!
[06:27] <NoUse> zipola what player are you using to view DVDs?
[06:27] <Sphygmos> can anyone please help me get dual displays working in ubuntu?.. i've gotten as far as having the desktop cloned on each monitor.. but when i turn the Xinerama option on, the second monitor shuts off
[06:27] <icedragon1> ok thanks Ng.  All I had to do was go to synaptic --> file --> history, and now I see which were installed.  Guess I should look harder first :)
[06:27] <Ng> icedragon1: aha, excellent :)
[06:27] <Dr_Willis> Sphygmos,  what video card?
[06:27] <Palpatine> Anybody knows how to enable mouse scrolling on a thinkpad x41?
[06:28] <Apple15> is it possible to use the "mail" command to send an email in a bash script... if i do it via command line it requires me to enter Control+D at the end of the msg text...
[06:28] <Ng> I should probably explore synaptic some more, I'm used to doing everything by hand ;)
[06:28] <Sphygmos> dr_willis: intel integrated 945g

[06:28] <Sphygmos> dr_willis: with one vga and one dvi port
[06:28] <Ng> Apple15: I believe you can prepare the mail and pipe it to mail's stdin
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> Sphygmos,  Ugh. :P well my example nvidia x config wont help ya much then.
[06:28] <Sphygmos> yeah that's the problem.. all the stuff on the wiki is for nvidia or ati
[06:28] <starkruzr> Anyone here use Evolution?  I need to know how to change what port it connects to for SMTP.
[06:29] <Apple15> Ng - i'll try that
[06:29] <josh> shit
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> Sphygmos,  could try out that mepis live cd.. it had some helper tool for 2 montior setup. then snag/dissect its xorg.conf :P if it works
[06:29] <josh> thats a bit unfair
[06:29] <DaSkreech> See you guys later
[06:30] <NoUse> zipola try this page http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/power/xorg_dpms/
[06:31] <zipola> Ther's a nice box ticked in Gconf /apps/gnome-power-manager : dim_on_idle :D
[06:31] <zipola> I'll try if unticking it solves the problem.
[06:32] <Gambit--> Is the configuration file (.config?) for the kernel that ships with breezy available somewhere?
[06:32] <NoUse> zipola cool
[06:33] <wsjunior> hello. im having troubles with ati drivers. i have an ati x200 and when i install the driver following the wiki instructions i cant use gnome anymore. I reboot and get the login screen but the laptop just freeze after typing my password. it starts to show that gnome splash kinda fuzzy and freezy. i can use gnome by commenting out the Load
[06:33] <zipola> NoUse, thanks for help, I should have remembered that Gconf has more (hidden) options than the graphical tools.
[06:33] <wsjunior> hello. im having troubles with ati drivers. i have an ati x200 and when i install the driver following the wiki instructions i cant use gnome anymore.

What could be happening?
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> Gambit--,  thers used to be a way to get it from /proc or /sys - if that feature was enqbled in the kernel compile.. but i cant rember the details.
[06:34] <Gambit--> Dr_Willis, hrm digging.

[06:34] <UdontKnow> wsjunior: might want to join #ubuntu-br as it might be easier for you ;)
[06:35] <wsjunior> UdontKnow: i tried to get help there yesterday. they couldnt help me :(
[06:35] <yallmo> Hi, when im booting ubuntu it stops at "Starting hotplug subsystem" and i cant do anything... Ive tryed to push "Ctrl + C" to "skip" it but it dont work.
[06:35] <yallmo> Any idea what it can be?
[06:36] <mbgb14> yallmo: Try unplugging any peripherals you have plugged in...
[06:36] <yallmo> mbgb14: Its an laptop, i dont have anything connected.
[06:36] <wsjunior> is anybody else here having troubles with ati drivers too?
[06:36] <mbgb14> wsjunior: when I loaded mine, I could no longer run a screensaver/lock the screen...
[06:37] <mbgb14> yallmo: Hmm sorry man -- no idea.
[06:37] <wsjunior> mbgb14: did u solve ur problem?
[06:37] <mbgb14> wsjunior: yup :D I wiped it and didn't install the ATI drivers :)
[06:37] <wsjunior> mbgb14: hehe.
[06:38] <usound> hey, I've a question: I started an Ubuntu 5.10 to 6.06 upgrade (with the new update-manager), but the power cut half way through. System is fine, but is there a way to continue from where it crashed?
[06:38] <mbgb14> wsjunior: I tend to be quite a hothead when it comes to problems. Instead of trying to fix them, I'd much rather just wipe the system
[06:38] <wsjunior> mbgb14: im afraid to use this solution to my problem as well..
[06:38] <DaSkreech> usound: Apt-get should continue
[06:38] <mbgb14> usound: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:39] <usound> ok, I'll try that
[06:39] <mbgb14> wsjunior: it works good :D haha. not alot of things that it *cant* fix :D
[06:39] <treb0r> you guys seen this? http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org

[06:39] <treb0r> mbgb14: sorry. I'm new
[06:39] <Fee^_> anyone use ubuntu with a quad speaker setup and figure out how to bind the master volume control to both the front and rear (ie. wave surround) slider?
[06:39] <treb0r> coming from gentoo land, it's pretty amazing...
[06:39] <mbgb14> treb0r: hey thas okay :D in fact, i dont even bother with Automatix anymore - EasyUbuntu all the way :D
[06:40] <yallmo> Anyone that know what i can do if the system stops on the "Starting hotplug subsystem" in the boot?
[06:40] <sarek> hi
[06:40] <mbgb14> treb0r: youch - gentoo can be quite difficult.
[06:41] <usound> mbgb14, thanx, I guess its working now (maybe start over but not as bad as update-manager - "231 packages could not be installed, bla bla bla")
[06:41] <arnau> can anyone help me with ethernet problems after upgradin from breezy?
[06:41] <mbgb14> arnau: dont ask permission to ask a question - just ask the question
[06:41] <arnau> ok
[06:41] <mbgb14> usound: no problem, glad that helped :)
[06:41] <treb0r> mbgb14: difficult but rewarding. i used to think ubuntu was for real beginners. how wrong i was...
[06:42] <usound> arnau, what are your problems?
[06:42] <treb0r> ubuntu seems to be what linux has been promising to be for years
[06:42] <sarek> I just upgraded from 5.10 to 6.60 ... worked fine for my desktop PC, but my Notebook (IBM Thinkpad t23) refuses to start with the new kernel. The old kernel still works for booting, but no modules are loaded (sound, wlan etc) Can anyone help me?
[06:42] <POVaddct> treb0r: right
[06:42] <tubbie> How do I set gnome to display the border only when moving windows?
[06:42] <lasjfl> i need some help, i am trying to install dapper to a SATA RAID 0, I used this http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto and this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FakeRaidHowto - and the process seems to go fine
[06:42] <mbgb14> treb0r: yeah i know what you mean. actually its not until recently that i tried ubuntu ... i had 5.10 and i hated it .. seriously, it pissed me off... ugly and unfunctional. then i loaded up 6.06 with EasyUbuntu, and wow - -- i havent stopped using it.
[06:43] <NoUse> sarek how did you upgrade the notebook?
[06:43] <arnau> when I write ifconfig in the console i only get a lo interface, and i also have a eth which is not running. Does anyone know why?
[06:43] <lasjfl> but when i reboot and get to the installed version on the raid, i have only 5 options in the administration menu, sudo doesnt do anything (and after looking sudousers or whatever that file is is blank) and sound doesnt work
[06:43] <sarek> via gnome's update manager. Just as I did the PC
[06:43] <NoUse> sarek do you have access to the console of the laptop now?
[06:44] <usound> arnau, check out the /etc/network/interfaces file and see if your eth0 or whatever is there
[06:44] <sarek> NoUse: at the moment the notebook runs with the old kernel (here I have access, yes) with the new kernel it hangs after saying "unpacking kernel"
[06:45] <iratsu> my friend rebooted and suddenly lost internet access. what can he do about this?
[06:45] <arnau> usound, eth0 is there
[06:45] <NoUse> sarek run 'sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade' first
[06:45] <sarek> NoUse: neither apt-get dist-upgrade nor apt-get upgrade want to install anything
[06:45] <NoUse> sarek ok
[06:45] <chrones> hello
[06:46] <dkr> the "changes" tab/textarea at the bottom of update-manager is blank for every package I select.  Is this a bug or just a (very important) missing feature?
[06:46] <sarek> NoUse: are there any known issues with the 2.6.15-23 kernel and IBM Notebboks or any chipsets?
[06:46] <tubbie> How do I set gnome to display the border only when moving windows?
[06:46] <NoUse> sarek not that I know of,
[06:46] <chrones> in trouble with apt-get update just installed dapper using a local repository "404 NON-EXISTENT BACKEND" it gives me the link of the file it can't find (Packages.gz) when I put this into firefox it asks me to download the file... any ideas please?
[06:46] <dkr> I hope we aren't expected to just update everything blindly without knowing what the changes are. :)
[06:47] <NoUse> sarek try 'sudo apt-get --reinstall linux-image.2.6.15-23-l7
[06:47] <usound> arnau, is it using dhcp
[06:47] <NoUse> sarek or whatever version you are using
[06:47] <sarek> kk, one second
[06:47] <tabas> ola
[06:47] <arnau> usound, yes
[06:48] <tabas> porque se van
[06:48] <usound> arnau, you could try the following, there is a line starting with auto, it probably says 'auto lo'; add eth0 to it so it becomes 'auto lo eth0'. Its worth a try I guess.
[06:48] <sarek> NoUse: lol ... that seems to be the problem ... I just did a dpkg -l linux* and it shows me that the linux*-k7 packages are installed. But it's an intel CPU

[07:04] <marrakech> i wasn`t asked for root pass when i installed U 5.10 and now i can`t login as root...can anyone help me?
[07:04] <arnau> usound, i have installed ubuntu in server mode, so i havent got gnome desktop
[07:04] <dkr> the "changes" tab/textarea at the bottom of update-manager is blank for every package I select.  Is this a bug or a missing feature or I am misunderstanding how it is supposed to work?
[07:05] <[Ex0r] > marrakech, there is no root user. You use sudo and the password you assigned your setup user
[07:05] <dkr> thre is too a root user, :)
[07:05] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : did you read the /topic in here?
[07:05] <Hexidigital_> !root
[07:05] <chrones> orbin: k thanks... I do sort of need to use that one since i'm basically on a lan with it and outside internet is  very expensive
[07:05] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[07:05] <wastrel> dkr:  i dunno, since i don't use synaptic, but since dapper is stable now, any updates will be bugfixes
[07:05] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, ?
[07:06] <Tomze> [Ex0r] : well.. if fdisk -l dont show it i dont know... could be sdb1 and so on but thne fdisk should display it
[07:06] <KriS83> Hi... how can I a problem when my machine gives me an error like: md: md0 raid array is not clean -- starting background reconstruction, mdadm: /dev/md/0 has been started with 2 drives, stoping tasks failed (1 tasks remaining)
[07:06] <orbin> chrones: oh i see....can you contact them about it?
[07:06] <KriS83> It then just hangs.. and does nothing :(
[07:06] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : the /topic in IRC channels contains useful information for the users of the channel.
[07:06] <[Ex0r] > maybe my usb drivers aren't installed ?
[07:06] <dkr> wastrel: oh, I didn't realize update-manager was part of synaptic.  I'll take that route to investigate
[07:06] <chrones> orbin: i'm confused because the file it says doesn't exist does.. and I can wget them fine
[07:06] <[Ex0r] > actually they have to be or i couldnt use my keyboard
[07:06] <orbin> dkr: have you done a 'reload'/update?  maybe it needs to be refreshed
[07:07] <chrones> orbin: yeah I can... thanks for helping anyway!
[07:07] <dfr> Hi, which config files has the setting which forces refresh rate for a resolution?
[07:07] <orbin> chrones: well the errors say something about backend, not cannot find file or anything like that
[07:07] <orbin> chrones: good luck
[07:07] <LjL> dfr: /etc/X11/xorg.conf. not terribly easy to edit. have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[07:07] <chrones> orbin: ok yep.. cool thanks
[07:08] <[Ex0r] > something is weird
[07:08] <wastrel> dkr:  hm i dunno the relation between synaptic & update manager- i don't usually use any of the gui package management tools :]   still use apt-get generally
[07:08] <dkr> orbin: when I select the individual packages available for update it says ni the textarea "downloading changes..." or similar to that, then the area becomes blank.
[07:08] <zquirM> I'm running Ubuntu server.. no GUI, no X.. how can I select packages ?
[07:08] <zquirM> is there anything that uses ncurses?
[07:08] <LjL> !aptitude
[07:08] <ubotu> aptitude is another front-end to apt, like apt-get, adept and Synaptic.  Unlike them, aptitude remembers what dependencies were installed with a package and can remove them if you uninstall. It also has a (somewhat buggy) text-mode interface.
[07:08] <MonsieurBon> hello
[07:08] <dfr> LjL: yep, I've been playing with it. Basically, I want to enable 1280x1024, but I think monitor supports it only for 60Hz.... and ignores the 1280x1024 comment in the "mode" section
[07:08] <zquirM> Is the text-mode really so buggy?
[07:09] <MonsieurBon> does anybody know dmg2iso.pl? Does it recquire any libraries or tools?
[07:09] <LjL> zquirM: never actually used it. people say it is.
[07:09] <wastrel> zquirM:  dselect
[07:09] <blenda> zquirM: dselect isn't buggy
[07:09] <LjL> zquirM: i prefer the command line
[07:09] <Flannel> zquirM: no.  you just sometimes get artifacts laying around if you don't have your encoding set to unicode
[07:09] <usound> arnau, right... (just remember, I probably know as much as you, so I'm just *trying* to help somebody)
[07:09] <DaSkreech> Tata guys
[07:09] <orbin> dkr: have you done a 'reload' in synaptic/aptitude update?  maybe it needs to be refreshed
[07:09] <wastrel> the dselect interface isn't terribly user-friendly :] 
[07:09] <dkr> wastrel: well, yeah, I can obviously find the changelogs myself,  it's not a big deal for me.  My concern is only to fix this for other folks if it is a bug.
[07:09] <Flannel> zquirM: the bugginess is just in the display, not anything that'll mess up your system
[07:09] <zquirM> I want something like dselect
[07:09] <heyHowsITgoin> is there a terminal or some way i can view over  thousands of lines , it saves the lines, i have aterm set up as this big number but it dosnt save that many lines, i have a lot of fonts to view
[07:09] <dfr> orbin: why would I dothat? I'm only editting the config?
[07:09] <zquirM> I came from dselect for server boxes
[07:10] <LjL> dfr: not sure what you're saying... you want 1280x1024 at 60Hz, but X is trying to use a higher refresh rate, which your monitor can't take?
[07:10] <dkr> orbin: I did the update-manager version of reload which is the "check" button.  trying synaptic now
[07:10] <Tomze> dfr: 2 sec,,
[07:10] <dfr> LjL: yes, I think that's the problem
[07:10] <arnau> usound, thanks
[07:10] <Klowner> heyHowsITgoin: ls | less ?
[07:10] <blenda> i installed gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly but mplayer still can't play mp3 files. why is that?
[07:10] <orbin> dfr: i'm not talking to you :)
[07:10] <zquirM> how can I set the console font ubuntu uses?
[07:10] <zquirM> I want like 132x60 or whatever.
[07:10] <[Ex0r] > blenda- install mpg321 as well
[07:10] <heyHowsITgoin> Klowner: xlsfonts
[07:11] <Das|Sleeping> I can't seem to change the permissions of mount devices, so is there a way to mount something with 777?
[07:11] <LjL> dfr: so, in sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, have you told it that your monitor is capable of up to 1280x1024@60Hz (you'll get asked if you choose the "intermediate" experience mode, or whatever it's called)
[07:11] <orbin> Das|Sleeping: fstab?
[07:11] <dfr> LjL: I could do that.... but shouldnt I be able to manually edit the xorg.conf to do that setting? or dpg-reconfigure amends other config files as well?
[07:11] <dkr> orbin: aha, synaptic fails to get changelogs also
[07:12] <blenda> [Ex0r] : it still doesn't work
[07:12] <dkr> Failed to fetch the changelog for libnss3
[07:12] <dkr> URI was: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/f/firefox/firefox_1.firefox1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.4-0ubuntu6.06/changelog
[07:12] <Das|Sleeping> orbin: A tumbnail, and a mp3 player
[07:12] <Some_Person> How do I use gphoto2? I typed in --auto-detect, and it did detect my camera (Intel Pocket PC Camera)
[07:12] <[Ex0r] > !mp3
[07:12] <ubotu> rumour has it, mp3 is a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[07:12] <Tomze> dfr: if your hoprizontal and vertikal refreshrate is not corect in xorg.conf the xserver will crash or ignore the settings for 1280x1024 and so on
[07:12] <Klowner> heyHowsITgoin: then try xlsfonts | less
[07:12] <Some_Person> !gphoto2
[07:12] <ubotu> Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Some_Person
[07:12] <LjL> dfr: you can edit it manually. but changing the refresh manually means writing a new modeline, which is not terribly easy. and that's what dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg is intended to do anyway: avoid having to edit xorg.conf manually
[07:12] <jdmpike> can people help me out with my xserver stuff?
[07:12] <zquirM> What is a "virtual package" ?
[07:12] <Some_Person> !gphoto
[07:12] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Some_Person
[07:12] <blenda> [Ex0r] : yes, all that page says is "Install the package gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly."
[07:12] <dfr> Tomze: I'm pretty sure they're set correct, I checked them on my monitor from google
[07:12] <hawkes> YOU AHVE RECIEVED A VIRUS
[07:12] <jdmpike> I am having some issues playing games now that I have XGL setup
[07:12] <wastrel> zquirM:  install the svgatextmode package
[07:12] <dfr> LjL: gotcha.. lemme try
[07:12] <jdmpike> Also, eclipse doesn't startup correctly...
[07:13] <orbin> Das|Sleeping: i meant have a look at the /etc/fstab file.  you can set mount permission w/ uid iirc
[07:13] <frogzoo> LjL: sometimes just specing horizsync & vertrefresh is al lthat's necessary
[07:13] <Some_Person> How do I use gphoto2? I typed in --auto-detect, and it did detect my camera (Intel Pocket PC Camera)
[07:13] <dsewnr_> Could somebody tell me which editor support FTP, such as the "UltraEdit" on windows.
[07:13] <LjL> zquirM: it's a package that doesn't really contain anything, but which just lists other packages as dependencies. virtual packages are handy for things like "i want to install every Gnome app that is officially supported by Ubuntu" (that would be similar ubuntu-desktop)
[07:13] <blenda> Das|Sleeping: never use 777, it's insecure
[07:13] <Hexidigital_> hawkes:: ???
[07:13] <[Ex0r] > hmm, seems like rio doesnt support linux operating systems :|
[07:13] <Das|Sleeping> blenda: How so?
[07:13] <blenda> Das|Sleeping: c
[07:13] <hawkes> ewhats the best torrent site
[07:13] <hawkes> ?
[07:13] <LjL> frogzoo: if you know them, yes. otherwise, specifying the highest display mode with the highest frequency that you know is supported can be just fine
[07:14] <blenda> Das|Sleeping: cause then every user on your system has read write and execute access to the files?
[07:14] <frogzoo> !torrent
[07:14] <orbin> hawkes: #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:14] <dkr> and thi sis the correct url.  I can't see the difference.  heh:  http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/f/firefox/firefox_1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.4-0ubuntu6.06/changelog
[07:14] <Das|Sleeping> blenda: That's not an issue in my case
[07:15] <dkr> ah, it's the firefox_1 part
[07:15] <dfr> LjL: just ran it.... I dont see any modeline comments in it... the config looks awefully close to what I had
[07:15] <thomas> Can I be helped with OOo?
[07:15] <dkr> for smoe reason synaptic and update-manager build the url incorretly
[07:15] <[Ex0r] > anyone here have a rio mp3 player ?
[07:15] <Hexidigital_> thomas:: what the problem?
[07:15] <Das|Sleeping> orbin, I see nothing in fstab about permissions
[07:15] <Some_Person> How do I use gphoto2? I typed in --auto-detect, and it did detect my camera (Intel Pocket PC Camera)
[07:15] <dfr> LjL: except the sync settings are off
[07:16] <zquirM> How can I change the console's font/size ?
[07:16] <hawkes> virus alert goin round every1] 
[07:16] <zquirM> like svgatextmode did...
[07:16] <blenda> Das|Sleeping: see "Question: I have a file i can't read/write/execute with the user i want!" at http://kreiger.linuxgods.com/kiki/?Bad+linux+advice
[07:16] <LjL> dfr: that's what it's supposed to change, the HorizSync and VertRefresh. perhaps try restarting X and see?
[07:16] <hawkes> dont us ethe V on your keyboard
[07:16] <dkr> can someone else try to download a changelog with synaptic in dapper to verify the problem is not my own system?
[07:16] <arnau> usound, I think I will format and install ubuntu again, thank you for ur help
[07:16] <disinterested_pe> i cant get my webcam to work any suggestions?
[07:16] <LjL> hawkes: why?
[07:16] <hawkes> d*nt use the O in ur keyb*ard
[07:16] <Hexidigital_> hawkes:: do you have a problem?
[07:16] <frogzoo> Some_Person: I don't know - google probly does though
[07:16] <LjL> hawkes: this is the Ubuntu support channel. please go elsewhere for general chatting or funny stuff
[07:17] <dfr> LjL: I'm pretty sure the sync rates are actually off.... I have ViewSonic p655, and some random page tells the rates to be 30-70 and 50-160... whereas it finds them a bit lower...
[07:17] <frogzoo> hawkes: Y n*t ?
[07:17] <dfr> LjL: and I am runnign with correct
[07:17] <dfr> LjL: but I guess lemme try
[07:17] <void^> hawkes: i admire your sense of humour. it's so lovely .. plain. :] 
[07:17] <hawkes> ibecause y*u ger a virus
[07:18] <LjL> dfr: it won't guess the exact rates, but it should guess rates that work. have you actually tried putting the ones from the manual into xorg.conf? that should work, as well
[07:18] <thomas> hi hexidigital
[07:18] <dkr> ok, actually it gets the changelogs ok for all but libnss and libnspr, must be a typo in those packages
[07:18] <Hexidigital_> hi thomas
[07:18] <LjL> hawkes: no, you don't.
[07:18] <Equin> How do I throw away the .deb packages that ubuntu put on my harddisk upon installation? Or where are they located? I need some extra space on this 2gig hdd
[07:18] <LjL> Equin: sudo apt-get clean
[07:18] <dfr> LjL: nope, same problem....
[07:18] <Equin> thank you alot
[07:18] <jacks> how do i access the contents on the virtual drive i created with VMware
[07:19] <frogzoo> Equin: /var/cache/apt
[07:19] <thomas> i installed the syriac and hebrew keyboard
[07:19] <thomas>   (in system-> etc.
[07:19] <thomas> ) but when i write in OOo, the cursor goes but no letters appear
[07:19] <thomas> t. nothing in the options menus
[07:19] <hawkes> u gert a virus if u use the O *on ur keyboard
[07:19] <Hexidigital_> hawkes:: stop it now, or you will be banned from this channel
[07:19] <Guard] [an> please i need urgent help. is there a way to unerase files ???
[07:19] <Guard] [an> i did a rm by accident :(
[07:19] <LjL> dfr: then try the package "videogen" to generate modelines, perhaps, and good luck with that
[07:19] <dfr> LjL: basically, when I use the Preferences->Screww Resolution, I dont have the 1280x1024 option and the refresh rate is locked at 75Hz
[07:19] <thomas> why banned?
[07:19] <Xamusk> what is the easiest way to set up a virtual server in ubuntu (for research purposes)
[07:19] <LjL> dfr: the preferences are often worthless in my experience ;)
[07:19] <frogzoo> Guard] [an: if you're using ext3, no, the file's gone
[07:20] <Equin> won't he be able to recover itwith special software?
[07:20] <Hexidigital_> thomas:: because he spamming
[07:20] <dfr> LjL: well... I'd certainly be happy to know what exact configs they change, but I aint 1337 enough yet :(
[07:20] <thomas> no, i pasted
[07:20] <frogzoo> Guard] [an: if you deleted with nautilues, you'll find it in ~/.trash
[07:20] <LjL> thomas: because this is the Ubuntu support channel, not a place to fake virus warnings or to make some uninteresting humour
[07:20] <Hexidigital_> thomas:: not you
[07:20] <orbin> heh, he used three Os in his last sentence
[07:20] <thomas> ok
[07:20] <zquirM> What's the difference between a Task and a Virtual Package?
[07:20] <thomas> so, do you have an idea?
[07:20] <[Ex0r] > why can I not compile anything from source with ubuntu ?
[07:20] <LjL> dfr: me neither. i think there's a modeline generator on the web somewhere, too, that's perhaps a bit easier to use than videogen
[07:21] <Subhuman> [Ex0r] , get "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[07:21] <Subhuman> then you can compile anything
[07:21] <Hexidigital_> thomas:: i'm unsure about international keyboard sets... as far as your hebrew keyboard setup, i cannot help :( sorry
[07:21] <LjL> dfr: try this http://www.dkfz.de/spec/linux/modeline/
[07:21] <Guard] [an> frogzoo i'm using reiserfs
[07:21] <Equin> Is it possible to resize my ext3 partition to something smaller so that I can make a fat32 partition and install windows 98, creating a dualboot config?
[07:21] <thomas> ok
[07:21] <thomas> thx
[07:21] <[Ex0r] > Equin you can try partition magic
[07:21] <frogzoo> Guard] [an: methinks there are reiser file recovery tools - if your'e desperate
[07:22] <LjL> Equin: gparted
[07:22] <Equin> ok, thanks
[07:22] <frogzoo> Guard] [an: quick google turned up this: http://www.antrix.net/journal/techtalk/reiserfs_data_recovery_howto.comments
[07:23] <Guard] [an> thx
[07:23] <Guard] [an> gonna read it
[07:23] <Drake_> what are things to check to why a box went offline and how to get it back online without rebooting it?
[07:24] <gavagai> Drake_, I am not sure how to check why, but to get it back online automatically you can run a script from cron to check the network and restart it when offline
[07:24] <Hexidigital_> gotta go... have a great day everyone
[07:24] <dfr> LjL: hrmph.... it tells me to set horizontal refresh rate to 206.64 KHz and the site says my monitor supports only 30-70Khz?
[07:25] <mantono> how do I load a dbus-session? gnome-power-manager complains about it not being loaded (I do not use gdm).
[07:26] <LjL> dfr: uh, you sure? i tried 1280x1024 (SXGA), 60Hz, and it seems to give something quite different from that
[07:26] <LjL> # V-freq: 60.00 Hz  // h-freq: 63.73 KHz
[07:26] <LjL> Modeline "1280x1024" 109.62  1280 1336 1472 1720  1024 1024 1026 1062
[07:26] <dfr> LjL: haha... I just misunderstood what they meant by vertical resolution.. thanks
[07:26] <dfr> LjL: let's see if that modeline has an effect
[07:27] <LjL> dfr: also, not my business, but... are you sure you want 60Hz refresh? that's bad for the eyes
[07:27] <gavagai> Drake_, to get it back online do:  sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:27] <dawson_> hi guys, I am running Dapper. And am having trouble, ' $ su ' to the root always gives an authentication failure, and its the right password, it works for everything else! any ideas? workarounds?
[07:27] <LjL> !root
[07:27] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[07:27] <Dewbie> ok then
[07:27] <dfr> LjL: I know.... I'd prefer 75Hz, of course... but I'd rather have the 1280x1024 resolution.... =/
[07:27] <Dewbie> lol
[07:28] <dfr> LjL: I think on windows I could make it run in that resolution and 75Hz..i thought
[07:28] <Dewbie> dfr you can't have both?
[07:28] <LjL> dfr: couldn't you settle for 1152x968? was a decent resolution for me, and it might be usable at 70Hz or 75Hz on your monitor
[07:28] <dfr> Dewbie: I have Viewsonic p655.... a random googled site claims that it can only run 1280x1024 ad 60Hz =/
[07:28] <Dewbie> Id love to be able to have even 72htz
[07:28] <bulltitan> is there any difference in any way if i install the latest nforce2 drivers from nvidia's website?
[07:28] <zquirM> Where in aptitude is MySQL?
[07:28] <Dewbie> but its 60 only
[07:28] <Dewbie> no choice
[07:28] <LjL> Dewbie: just try putting in a modeline for 70Hz. might work
[07:28] <Dewbie> lol
[07:28] <_jason> bulltitan: probably easier to use the on in the repos
[07:28] <shylock> after upgrading to dapper i get the following error when trying to start openoffice:[fglrx]  API ERROR: could not register entrypoint for FramebufferTexture1DEXT     and like 100 rows with similar errors, anyone experienced this?
[07:28] <someRandomGuy> why is it that all of my custom installed fonts show up in say KDE when i do xlsfonts, but they do not in Fluxbox when i open up a term and do xlsfonts
[07:29] <Dewbie> it won't
[07:29] <Dewbie> tried
[07:29] <NoUse> zquirM its called mysql-server
[07:29] <Dewbie> x server is very finicky
[07:29] <dfr> LjL: hrmph.. lemme try..... What would happen if I were to force monitor refresh rate out of what it is said it can handle?
[07:29] <Dewbie> with my machine
[07:29] <LjL> Dewbie: yes, sorry, i was actually addressing dfr about that. wrong nick
[07:29] <zquirM> Ah, under MISC
[07:29] <gavagai> dfr, maybe nothing, maybe you break it
[07:29] <Drake_> gavagai: when I run sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart it ok's it but still not online
[07:29] <bulltitan> thanks jason ,.. have you tryed to install the nvidia's one?and how did it go?
[07:29] <Dewbie> ahhh
[07:29] <LjL> dfr: if it's not a terribly old monitor (which doesn't sound like being), nothing bad. just an "Out of sync rate" warning on a black screen
[07:29] <Dewbie> god I love the fonts in ubuntu
[07:29] <[Ex0r] > grrr
[07:29] <someRandomGuy> why is it that all of my custom installed fonts show up in say KDE when i do xlsfonts, but they do not in Fluxbox when i open up a term and do xlsfonts
[07:30] <dfr> LjL: them lemme try forcing 1280 on 65Hz...
[07:30] <Dewbie> easier to read than the tahoma with cleartype
[07:30] <dfr> Ljl: *75
[07:30] <_jason> bulltitan: nope I've stuck to the repository one, let me send you the wiki page
[07:30] <bulltitan> ok
[07:30] <_jason> ubotu: tell bulltitan about nvidia
[07:30] <Dewbie> so next thing to fix
[07:30] <zquirM> how do I search for a package by name in aptitude?
[07:30] <Drake_> gavagai: it has only not had access today ... this box uptime is 13:28:14 up 5 days,  1:37,  3 users,  load average: 0.00, 0.05, 0.08
[07:31] <Dewbie> my video drivers
[07:31] <dfr> brb
[07:31] <_jason> zquirM: aptitude search
[07:31] <LjL> zquirM: apt-cache search name. aptitude search name works too, but doesn't search in the long descriptions
[07:31] <Flannel> zquirM: search at the top (f10 to get there)
[07:31] <viksa> i want to install limewire on ubuntu 6.06 any idea ?
[07:31] <LjL> zquirM: oh right sorry, you mean from the UI
[07:31] <Toge> hello
[07:31] <LjL> !limewire
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> !limewire
[07:31] <ubotu> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> :)
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> I hear frostwire is much better
[07:32] <Toge> do you know a program to uncompress .ace?
[07:32] <Flannel> !tell viksa about limewir
[07:32] <viksa> !limewire
[07:32] <LjL> !info unace
[07:32] <ubotu> unace: (extract, test and view .ace archives), section universe/utils, is optional. Version: 1.2b-3 (dapper), Packaged size: 14 kB, Installed size: 80 kB
[07:32] <Gullstad> !linksys
[07:32] <ubotu> If you have a Linksys or Netgear router please get your firmware update
[07:32] <viksa> !limewire
[07:32] <ubotu> first you need !java, then download the http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and unpack it. Then just run the runLime.sh file. Voila. Consider !frostwire as an alternative.
[07:33] <Toge> i cant uncompress a .ace using unace, another programa?
[07:33] <Gullstad> What chipset is Linksys's wireless cards?
[07:33] <someRandomGuy> why is it that all of my custom installed fonts show up in say KDE when i do xlsfonts, but they do not in Fluxbox when i open up a term and do xlsfonts
[07:33] <Webby`> Hi
[07:33] <dfr> LjL: nope, dont think it helped..... I'm still running 1024x768 at 75Hz with no option to make it 1280 or somehow else amend my refresh rate
[07:33] <Webby`> Can somone help me get sound on my ubuntu install?
[07:33] <truz_`24> if you install a processor specifc kernel, hwo do you make apt use it when doing an update or etc?
[07:33] <lasjfl> i am trying to install dapper to RAID using the http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto#Install_the_base_system but dmraid keeps failing
[07:33] <NoUse> Gullstad depends on the version of the card, they change chipsets  all the time
[07:34] <Webby`> I get no sound and no sound card is detected
[07:34] <truz_`24> if a new kernel gets released, it defaults back to the plain kernel
[07:34] <Gullstad> NoUse: WMP54G
[07:34] <dfr> LjL: BTW, i think it was fine before I did the kernel upgrade
[07:34] <lasjfl> that is apt-get install dmraid fails
[07:34] <NoUse> Gullstad google around, I don' tknow off hand
[07:34] <LjL> dfr: uh, but you did select 1280x1024 from the dpkg-reconfigure didn't you? try leaving it as the *only* option selected (or remove all other modes from xorg.conf)
[07:34] <viksa> !java
[07:34] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
[07:34] <dfr> LjL: good call.. lemme see
[07:34] <Gullstad> NoUse: Ok, thanks anyways
[07:34] <lasjfl> it says.. invoke-rc.d: initscript dmraid, action "start" failed
[07:34] <lasjfl> dpkg: error processing dmraid (--configure)
[07:34] <orospakr> if I do apt-get source linux-source-2.6.15, will all the the ubuntu patches already be applied to that source tree?
[07:35] <chakra85> hi everyone
[07:35] <dkr> ok, here is a newb question, what commandline app do I use to play a .wav?  I see esd running but dapper has no esdplay command as I've used in other distros.  aplay works, but only if no other sound is playing
[07:35] <LjL> dfr: of course be ready to reach for a console, in case you get out-of-sync
[07:35] <[Ex0r] > if you don't have kde installed, and try running an app made for kde, will it still run? (For example, krioutil) It keeps telling me a misconfiguration in the X configuration
[07:35] <orospakr> so If I build and install it with the traditional make modules_install, etc., all of the ubu patches will be there?
[07:35] <Gullstad> !ralink 2500
[07:35] <LjL> dkr: try aplay
[07:35] <ubotu> I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Gullstad
[07:35] <LjL> dkr: oh sorry
[07:35] <Gullstad> !RTLink 2500
[07:35] <ubotu> I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Gullstad
[07:35] <dfr> LjL: I'm not afraid of console at all, hehe :)
[07:36] <LjL> dkr: usr/bin/esdplay sound/esound-clients
[07:36] <NoUse> !tell Gullstad about ubotu
[07:36] <dkr> LjL: ah, awesome, thanks
[07:36] <samu> Where do you ask when a certain software will have a newer available version in the repos?
[07:36] <NoUse> !tell Gullstad about wireless
[07:37] <LjL> Samu: it won't until next Ubuntu release.
[07:37] <orospakr> !tell orospakr about ubotu
[07:37] <orospakr> oh. so that's what it is. :P
[07:37] <[Ex0r] > wow, kde is over 400 megs in size?
[07:37] <LjL> Samu: there's the Backports repository, if you feel like enabling it. then you can request for backports on the forums
[07:37] <chakra85> so i have to boxes: one winxp and one ubuntu. is there any way to play music on the xp box over my network? right now I have banshee / itunes, but i'd rather just play music through a samba share.
[07:37] <dkr> samu: you can ask me... and I wtill tell you:  Real Soon Now
[07:37] <someRandomGuy> why is it that all of my custom installed fonts show up in say KDE when i do xlsfonts, but they do not in Fluxbox when i open up a term and do xlsfonts, is there some service i need to put on fluxbox's startup file that starts when KDE starts?
[07:37] <hawkes> how do i join unbuntu offtopic
[07:38] <Drake_> is there a howto in troubleshooting the network connectivity of a box?
[07:38] <LjL> hawkes:   /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:38] <samu> Ok maybe I wasn't clear enough. When can I update to vim7 through the repos?
[07:38] <[Ex0r] > hawkes, - /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:38] <hawkes> thanks Ljl and Ex0r
[07:38] <Dr_Willis> !bluetooth
[07:38] <NoUse> samu probably when the next version of ubuntu comes out
[07:38] <ubotu> I guess bluetooth is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
[07:38] <dfr> LjL: hrmph... you know, I think it's a drivers problem...
[07:38] <dawson_> ok, i am getting really frustrated, i am new to this and getting a decently operating system is takeing me ages!!!!!
[07:38] <dfr> LjL: 'cause I amended nvidia to nv.... and I got tons of options.. including 1280x1024 at 60Hz....
[07:38] <Snellgrove> Drake_: searching the forums helped me a lot today :) I learnt a few commands, like i"p route" and "ip addr" which are good at telling you if you even have an IP Address!
[07:38] <LjL> dfr: what driver are you using?
[07:39] <samu> NoUse, Isn't that like after 6 months or something?
[07:39] <NoUse> samu yeah
[07:39] <LjL> dfr: well, i'm using nvidia and i'm at 1400x1050@75Hz ;-)
[07:39] <Flannel> samu: well, no.  october.
[07:39] <dfr> LjL: right now I turned on nv.. before I was using nvidia.... had to re-install it after kernel upgrade too
[07:39] <Dewbie> will linux clean my LCD for me?
[07:39] <NoUse> !vim7
[07:39] <ubotu> vim7 will be available in edgy
[07:39] <samu> So why is that. There's lots of other software getting updated regularly.
[07:39] <dawson_> how do you navigate through the file system in the terminal, say i want to 'go up a level' in dos you would cd.. how in terminal? thanks guys!
[07:39] <NoUse> samu only for securuty updates
[07:39] <bulltitan> seems like it makes no sense to install nforce drivers i feel that it will be a waste of time and it might screw something,... anyway thanks jason
[07:39] <Dewbie> damn fingerprints
[07:39] <Flannel> dawson_: same way.
[07:39] <Snellgrove> Yeah, Dewbie if you do sudo apt-get install tft-screen-cleaner   lol ;)
[07:40] <NoUse> samu otherwise it won't get updated
[07:40] <radar1976> Dewbie: yes but you need to put some elbow grease into it
[07:40] <radar1976> and a damp cloth
[07:40] <dawson_> when i try cd.. i get command not found
[07:40] <Drake_> Snellgrove: I have an ip address just don't have access to the gateway at the moment
[07:40] <Snellgrove> dawson_:  "cd .." ;)
[07:40] <chakra85> dawson, try cd /
[07:40] <chakra85> that will get you to root
[07:40] <chakra85> nm
[07:40] <LjL> Samu: not all distributions have the same update policy. with Ubuntu, you get security fixes and major bug fixes. you also get some backports if you're ready for the additional risk
[07:40] <Flannel> dawson_: oh, you need spaces.  cd ..  (no idea why dos allows no spaces, it shouldnt)
[07:40] <lasjfl> i am trying to install dapper to RAID using the http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto#Install_the_base_system but dmraid keeps failing
[07:40] <radar1976> Drake_: route add default gw <gatewayIP>
[07:40] <lasjfl> that is apt-get install dmraid fails
[07:40] <lasjfl> it says.. invoke-rc.d: initscript dmraid, action "start" failed

[07:43] <nalioth> LjL: it's done
[07:43] <LjL> dfr: i only installed dapper recently. no, nothing special -- however, since the Breezy times, i always had some problems with refresh rate. specifically, it normally worked, but sometimes it booted to 60Hz (especially upon reboot), and then it kept booting at 60Hz. after a few attempts, it eventually got back to 75Hz. never realized why this was
[07:43] <NoUse> samu this is not supported by ubuntu but you can try it, http://www.freshnet.org/debian/dapper/vim7/

[07:48] <Twinxor> I'll check it out, nalioth
[07:48] <priest_> gnome-terminal
[07:48] <priest_> should i run from xterm
[07:48] <H0lyD4wg> beagle only indexes my gaim conversations and nothing else, what gives?
[07:48] <Drake_> I have had my box going down about once every two weeks and I can't seem to figure out why I have been rebooting it when I couldn't diganosis it right away and not I am tired of rebooting it all the time, what would be the process of diagnosising why network connectivity would be going down?
[07:48] <LjL> priest_: perhaps try "sudo apt-get --reinstall install synaptic"
[07:48] <scwizard> @sarek
[07:48] <Dewbie> hmmm can't update until I get all the latest updates to my system
[07:48] <scwizard> have you checked the forums at all?
[07:48] <LjL> priest_: that might bring it into the menu
[07:49] <Dewbie> lol
[07:49] <NoUse> priest_ I would run 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' as well
[07:49] <Dewbie> god Im confused
[07:49] <priest_> LjL: i will try
[07:49] <Dewbie> heh
[07:49] <scwizard> I think I saw something there
[07:49] <priest_> thanks guys
[07:49] <sarek> scwizard: I am trying to find help there, sure - but so fra no luck :-( can you tell me which forum to check?
[07:50] <Snellgrove> Lo
[07:50] <sylvain> hi, I'd like to know the name, if any, of a builtin package that allows to adjust the bass/treble for audio playback
[07:50] <scwizard> @sarek lemme check 1 sec
[07:50] <sylvain> couldn't find this in the volume control so i've been wondering
[07:50] <Snellgrove> there's one already built in, I think sylvain
[07:51] <LjL> sylvain: does your sound card *have* an equalizer?
[07:51] <Snellgrove> I might be wrong though, hang on a minute
[07:51] <Snellgrove> oh I think I'am wrong, can't find one..  oh well :(
[07:52] <debit> how about alsamixer?
[07:52] <sylvain> LjL I think it does, or maybe it worked under windows before thanks to software emulation
[07:52] <scwizard> @sarak wait it won't install
[07:52] <sylvain> alsamixer?
[07:52] <scwizard> @hmm, for a while I thought ubuntu came with it
[07:52] <debit> just type the command
[07:52] <scwizard> it doesn't
[07:52] <LjL> sylvain: i think both the Gnome mixer and alsamixer are *supposed* to show bass/treble sliders, if the sound system finds support
[07:53] <sylvain> okay i'm installing it, it's worth the try i guess
[07:53] <scwizard> so you had it installed before you upgraded?
[07:53] <LjL> sylvain: alsamixer is installed by default on my Kubuntu
[07:53] <sarek> scwizard: yes that's right
[07:53] <dfr> LjL: did you use drivers from nvidia.com or from synpatic?
[07:53] <LjL> dfr: synaptic
[07:53] <dfr> LjL: k.. that's the difference... I'm using cedega, so I need to be more specialized, hehe
[07:53] <LjL> dfr: (well i don't use synaptic, but i used the APT packages anyway)
[07:54] <dfr> LjL: well yea.. same thing, basically
[07:54] <sylvain> LjL, and you've got bass/treble control ?
[07:54] <sarek> scwizard: the packjage name is ndiswrapper-source
[07:54] <LjL> sylvain: no. but my built-in card doesn't support it, and it did not in windows either
[07:54] <Snellgrove> man, I knew the ubuntu forums were busy, but there's nearly 1000 viewing!! :O
[07:54] <gteppel> I run a linux server on my home LAN (it acts as a internet router/firewall). I can connect to my work network using VPN, however I often find myself on a wireless network that only allows 80/443 outbount, to get around this so I could still connect to my linux box I ran sshd off of 443. I've been able to tunnel many services using SSH tunelling, except VPN because it uses other protocols besides TCP/UDP, I think PPTP VPN uses the GRE Protocol, I'm not su
[07:54] <gteppel> re what IPSEC VPN uses. Anyways does anybody see a way I can connect to my work's VPN within this restricted wireless network?
[07:54] <sylvain> okay, in that case it must mean my built-in card doesn't support it as well (i'm using a laptop)
[07:55] <[Ex0r] > i just installed kde, I hope it doesn't set itself as default in the x config
[07:55] <[Ex0r] > oh, I wanted to ask.. at bootup, my screen resolution is very high and everything is very small. How can I set the default resolution for the login screen ?
[07:55] <LjL> sylvain: though i've never heard that Windows emulated equalizer settings. perhaps your card is just not being recognized correctly by ubuntu
[07:55] <sarek> scwizard: I just did a reinstall ... the ndiswarpper packages do install fine. It's the build with module-assistant that fails
[07:55] <sylvain> i'll need to fetch some info on the exact nature of my generic sound card
[07:56] <LjL> [Ex0r] : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will allow you to choose system-wide resolutions
[07:56] <sylvain> well thanks for answering, it's appreciated
[07:56] <LjL> [Ex0r] : kde will not be default until you set it to be default
[07:56] <[Ex0r] > very nice :)
[07:56] <Drake_> gteppel: I am guessing that you could use OpenVPN as a solution
[07:56] <Snellgrove> gteppel, don't know unless you can somehow create a tunnel to your linux server on your home LAN, which can run on the port the WiFi allows
[07:56] <[Ex0r] > I think i'm going to go with fluxbox once I get more familiar with ubuntu ?
[07:56] <syllogism> can anyone think of any obvious advantage of MySQL over PostgreSQL or the other way around?
[07:56] <[Ex0r] > - ?
[07:57] <Snellgrove> IS MSN down?
[07:57] <garryfre> And you should be seeing a sessions drop down where you can change your default gui from or to kde or gnome or set it to just use your last choice.
[07:57] <Snellgrove> or is my GAIM just knackered :D
[07:57] <LjL> syllogism: postgres: actual SQL support :-) MySQL: more widespread
[07:57] <LjL> and possibly faster
[07:57] <syllogism> which one?
[07:58] <gteppel> Drake_: so setup OpenVPN on my linux server and tunnel the ports used by OpenVPN between my linux server and the wireless laptop?
[07:58] <Flannel> syllogism: just google it "postgreSQL vs MySQL" and have a read
[07:58] <Snellgrove> something like that, yeah.. gteppel :)
[07:58] <LjL> syllogism: the faster one i meant mysql.
[07:59] <syllogism> thanks
[07:59] <LjL> syllogism: myself, i'd use postgres all day. but it's best to make up your own mind
[07:59] <gteppel> i'd still have to setup OpenVPN to act like a proxy between my work vpn and my home network correct?
[07:59] <Drake_> gteppel: once you vpn to your linux server you can get out to the internet how ever you want
[07:59] <Oldschool> moin @ all
[07:59] <dkr> nod, for everyone that swears by postgresql there is one swearnig by mysql
[07:59] <gteppel> Drake_: ahh I see
[07:59] <sarek> scwizard: no idea?
[08:00] <Mysta> how do I rename partitions from inside the file browser? I receive an error stating The item could not be renamed???
[08:00] <Tentious> Anyone here play EVE-Online?
[08:00] <dkr> competition is good, :)
[08:00] <truz_`24> Tentious, i used to...
[08:00] <syllogism> LjL, the reason I ask is because I've been trying to cross-compile MySQL for the past 2 days from linux to windows. . it's damn near impossible
[08:01] <Tentious> truz_`24: Was you able to get it to run on Cedega?
[08:01] <dkr> syllogism: why not just use the binaries supplied for windows?
[08:01] <Drake_> ok dumb question how to determine the qt version at the command line apparently qt --version is not the command ;)
[08:01] <truz_`24> Tentious, never tried...
[08:01] <garryfre> mount /dev/bios/mind Error:  Object not detected - You have not awoken yet.
[08:01] <truz_`24> Tentious, if they ever came out with a linux client i would probably try it again
[08:01] <gnomefreak> Drake_: try libqt3-mt --version
[08:01] <flo> Hi ! Should a webcam basicly work on ubuntu-server or is there maybe something missing from the kernel ?
[08:01] <iratsu> how can i find out what ethernet driver goes with accton technology corporation SMC2-1211TX?
[08:01] <syllogism> dkr, I'm developing software for windows FROM linux. . so I need the dev files
[08:01] <gnomefreak> Drake_: or apt-cache policy libqt3-mt
[08:01] <truz_`24> does anyone in here use a non standard kernel ( k7, 686-smp )?
[08:01] <Artifex> hi guys!!!!
[08:02] <Tentious> truz_`24: Yeah... Same here...
[08:02] <Morden> does RIPE work for someone?
[08:02] <dkr> syllogism: my condolences, :)
[08:02] <NoUse> truz_`24 yeah
[08:02] <truz_`24> NoUse, how do you get apt to upgrade you to the newest version of that kernel?
[08:02] <gavagai> iratsu, google.com/linux
[08:02] <truz_`24> When a new kernel comes out, it puts me back to the default kernel
[08:02] <truz_`24> and i have to install my smp one
[08:02] <truz_`24> along with restricted modules
[08:02] <mDot> anyone know if compiz can be limited to just the expose feature and maybe the cube? i don't like the indow decorations and would rather not use them
[08:02] <tenco> truz_`24: there should be a meta-package for -k7 etc kernels
[08:03] <tenco> truz_`24: wait a sec
[08:03] <gnomefreak> mDot: try in #ubuntu-xgl
[08:03] <NoUse> truz_`24 just install linux-<version>, like linux-k7 will get the latest k7 kernel
[08:03] <gavagai> So in ubuntu if I install a new kernel, will it keep the old one, and will grub give me the option to boot the old one?
[08:03] <nicholaspaul> Does someone know how to get rid of "_" in filenames in Grip?
[08:03] <nalioth> gavagai: it should
[08:03] <truz_`24> NoUse, I did...
[08:03] <gnomefreak> gavagai: will keep the old one
[08:03] <NoUse> truz_`24 what version are you running?
[08:03] <gavagai> ok thanks
[08:03] <Mysta> anyoen?
[08:03] <truz_`24> but when updates come out, they update the default kernel
[08:03] <truz_`24> 6.06
[08:03] <gavagai> I have the 386 kernel but i want to install 686
[08:03] <Artifex> hey, is there a version of Ubuntu (or linux more in general) for Appe MacBook?
[08:03] <NoUse> truz_`24 I mean what version of the kernel are you running?
[08:04] <repti> DCC SEND 1234567890startkeylogger
[08:04] <gnomefreak> Artifex: ubuntu ppc
[08:04] <Lpadmin> What does this mean: cupsd: Child exited with status 1!?
[08:04] <truz_`24> NoUse, 2.6.15.23
[08:04] <NoUse> Artifex via bootcamp, intel will work
[08:04] <NoUse> gnomefreak macbook is intel
[08:04] <truz_`24> NoUse, 2.6.15-23-k7 to be exact
[08:04] <Lpadmin> Nalioth, another one?
[08:04] <truz_`24> but when updates come, they give me the base 386 one
[08:04] <tenco> NoUse: there is no linux-k7 package, only linux-image-k7
[08:04] <NoUse> truz_`24 thats the latest version of the kernel for ubuntu
[08:04] <nalioth> Lpadmin: yup
[08:04] <Artifex> hey, is there a version of Ubuntu (or linux more in general) for Appe MacBook?
[08:04] <gnomefreak> NoUse: than the 386 should work
[08:04] <truz_`24> NoUse, I know it is.
[08:04] <NoUse> truz_`24 oh, just remove the 386 version
[08:04] <NoUse> gnomefreak yeah
[08:04] <Lpadmin> Hello jughead! :)
[08:05] <NoUse> !linux-k7
[08:05] <ubotu> NoUse: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:05] <truz_`24> NoUse, dpkg -r ?
[08:05] <truz_`24> or apt-get remove
[08:05] <NoUse> tenco wrong
[08:05] <gavagai> Artifex, regular x86 ubuntu.  intel macs run x86 linux, ppc macs run ppc linux.

[08:06] <NoUse> truz_`24 that will list all 386 kernels installed, just apt-get remove them
[08:06] <truz_`24> k
[08:06] <nalioth> Drake_: you need libqt*-dev
[08:06] <Artifex> gavagai, is it difficult to install Dapper on a MacBook using BootCamp?
[08:06] <tenco> NoUse: indeed. sorry. :-)
[08:06] <gavagai> Artifex, i have no idea.  you could check ubuntu forums.
[08:06] <Lpadmin> Uh oh.
[08:06] <NoUse> tenco no prob
[08:06] <gavagai> i have never installed linux on my mac
[08:07] <Artifex> gavagai thank you anyway!
[08:07] <gavagai> you're welcome
[08:07] <garryfre> iratsu: If you mean to know the name of the eternet driver you are using now its a command: lspci
[08:07] <Nightwish1986> Hello! Can somebody help me with my sound? It sounds scratchy with a high beep... I tried asound.conf and muting some channels in alsamixer, but no luck. Using AD1986A (alsa) on ubuntu dapper 6.06
[08:07] <nicholaspaul> Artifex: i have dapper on a PPC powerbook, and it works fine. install is not a problem.
[08:07] <ArAnWe> pleas, can someone help me ..... i am newbie to ubuntu <and linux> and i want to installl opera browser, but when i want to install the deb package it needs xlib6g and xlibs package , which i can't find anywhere pls , can someone help me
[08:07] <iratsu> garryfre: yea but it doesn't give me the filename of the driver
[08:08] <NoUse> !tell ArAnWe about opera
[08:08] <nicholaspaul> ArAnWe: use Synaptic. It installs all the dependencies for you.
[08:08] <basti> a quick question. which file do I edit so that I have the same keyboard layout as I have in gnome, when Im not logged in gnome? (special dvorak layout)
[08:08] <ArAnWe> i wanted to use synaptic, but it finds nothing
[08:08] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, does it work with the airport card?
[08:08] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: yup, perfectly.
[08:08] <NoUse> ArAnWe ubotu just sent you howto links
[08:08] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, cool
[08:08] <winbond> is there a list of hardware that has a full linux support?  lets say i want to build a pc just for linux , and what to have sound ,video etc with good drivers
[08:08] <Drake_> nalioth: thanks I found it libqt3-mt-dev I am guessing
[08:08] <Artifex> nicholaspaul, really? Is it just like the installation of XP?
[08:09] <nalioth> Drake_: that sounds good
[08:09] <ArAnWe> ubotu: thx
[08:09] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ArAnWe
[08:09] <gavagai> that's good progress.  when i bought my ibook linux didn't work with airport.  i haven't really followed the progress of linux on mac.
[08:09] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell winbond -about hardware
[08:09] <garryfre> iratsu Oh. Hmmm. sounds like ye need to run a command to find out what processes are running perhaps dmesg might give you an idea.
[08:09] <NoUse> ArAnWe ubotu is a bot :-)
[08:09] <nicholaspaul> Artifex: um.... funny question, but it does install easily!
[08:09] <Artifex> ^_^
[08:09] <Drake_> what does threaded mean in regards to an output of an apt-cache search?
[08:09] <Artifex> and the hardware is fully recognized?
[08:09] <larry> gavagai: there's always yellow dog too
[08:09] <ArAnWe> NoUse: lol?
[08:09] <nicholaspaul> Artifex: yup
[08:10] <winbond> ty
[08:10] <nicholaspaul> Artifex: just dual monitors doesnt work, nor 'sleep'
[08:10] <nicholaspaul> Artifex:  but combo drive and F/W drives work fine.
[08:10] <Lpadmin> Nalioth, does this mean that unregistered people can't come to this channel?
[08:10] <garryfre> !twinview
[08:10] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, garryfre
[08:10] <gavagai> larry, that's true.  i'm pretty happy with OSX, i'll probably leave it on my laptop until i get a new one.  then if my laptop becomes a server i'll put ubuntu on it maybe.
[08:10] <Artifex> good
[08:11] <nalioth> Lpadmin: no unregistered users may join the channel for the moment, Lpadmin
[08:11] <truz_`24> NoUse, thanks.
[08:11] <Nightwish1986> !tell sound
[08:11] <Artifex> why so many notebooks have some problems with "sleep mode" in linux?
[08:11] <Drake_> is there a way to check what is actually being installed by apt-get or you are just trusting the integrity of the source servers that you are downloading and installing from?
[08:11] <NoUse> truz_`24 sure
[08:11] <truz_`24> My grub menu is clean now :-)
[08:11] <NoUse> Artifex instead of following the ACPI standard, they code to Microsoft's spec
[08:12] <truz_`24> I was running the dev version of dapper for a while, so I had like 10 kernels in there.
[08:12] <Nightwish1986> !tell Nightwish1986 sound
[08:12] <gavagai> Drake_, at some point you have to trust someone.  apt checks that the file downloaded correctly though
[08:12] <garryfre> Not just sleep but many power saving features. It seems they are just not written for the hardware yet.
[08:12] <tenco> Artifex: dunno, but perhaps suspend to ram differs a lot from model to model
[08:12] <truz_`24> reboot
[08:13] <Artifex> maybe other brands are more compatible with the "sleep mode"??
[08:14] <tenco> Artifex: this is my second notebook, and suspend to ram never worked
[08:14] <MonsieurBon> hello
[08:14] <Artifex> oh! it doesn't work on my travelmate too! : (
[08:14] <MonsieurBon> did anyone manage to get his ipod to work with dapper? I have a ipod of the 5th generation
[08:14] <tenco> Artifex: i have a huge problem related to sata drivers and acpi/apic with my current one, in fact
[08:15] <cparker> hi, how do i put a "Computer" icon on my dapper desktop? i can't seem to figure out how...
[08:16] <ArAnWe> nouse: :'( none of the tips didn't work ..... it can't find the xlibs and xlib6g libraries
[08:16] <tenco> cparker: just drag'n'drop that from the places(?)-menu
[08:16] <jrib> ubotu: tell cparker about desktop-icons
[08:16] <cparker> ohhhh... didn't know i could drag from the menus. :)
[08:17] <garryfre> cparker: right click on desktop, choose create a launcher its analgous to a short cut so you'll have to find out how the menu one works and where it points.
[08:17] <jrib> cparker: one sec on that factiod, I need to update it for dapper.  Or you can use the other methods :)
[08:17] <cparker> voila! all done. thanks tenco. :)
[08:17] <wastrel> viola
[08:17] <tenco> ..makes sounds. ;-)
[08:18] <garryfre> I like that drag and drop idea.
[08:18] <cparker> it'd be nice if i could right-click on the menu items...
[08:18] <NoUse> ArAnWe did you read the wiki page?
[08:18] <tenco> cparker: yeah.
[08:19] <ArAnWe> NoUse: yes a did ...there are commands to install the package and to find missing packages, but these it cant find
[08:19] <garryfre> I see, ye can right click, but it just opens. ..... Doh on me!
[08:20] <NoUse> ArAnWe where did you get the package?
[08:20] <ArAnWe> hte opera package? .... opera.com ... a tryed to use ubuntu 6.06 pack and generic deb pack .....all the same problem
[08:21] <NoUse> ArAnWe read the whole wiki page, it tells you what to do with that error message
[08:21] <sudomania4> I want to add a simple Red Circle to an MPEG video .what program do you suggest ?
[08:21] <garryfre> I just use white out on my errors.
[08:21] <NoUse> ArAnWe or you can follow the section to install via apt-get
[08:22] <Tentious> I'm about to purchase a new video card. I currently have an ATI Radeon 9700 Pro 128MB, but I'm wanting to play games and I know from past experiance that ATI doesn't really support open source anymore, so I'm leaning towards a nVidia card. What is the most compatible card out there that will do great with games such as World of Warcraft, EVE-Online and Guildwars?
[08:22] <gnomefreak> ArAnWe: use the link ubotu is gonna give you read it first than click the snapshot link
[08:22] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell ArAnWe -about opera
[08:22] <ArAnWe> NoUse: yes i did ....
[08:22] <ArAnWe> gnomeFreak: thx
[08:22] <gnomefreak> yw
[08:23] <gnomefreak> ArAnWe: in that link there is an opera download that says dapper use that one ;)
[08:23] <`out2lnch`untwis> Tentious, if you want a good card without breaking the bank look for something along the geForce 6800 series.  I'm sure most of the nVidia cards (other than super bleeding edge cards) should work with no problem!
[08:26] <ackeubu_> Hey I can manually make the icons on items on my desktop smaller. can i change the default size of all of the desktop items in some way?
[08:27] <Drake_> where would be a good place to start looking for what caused a gateway entry to just disappear
[08:27] <zax1> for a 700mhz laptop, is XUbuntu considerably faster ?
[08:27] <sudomania4> I want to add a simple Red Circle to an MPEG video .what program do you suggest ?
[08:28] <Tentious> `out2lnch`untwis: Thanks!
[08:28] <Klowner> zax1: how much ram?
[08:28] <zax1> 128
[08:28] <untwisted> No problemo
[08:28] <gteppel> Is it possible to connect to a VPN and then connect to another VPN?
[08:28] <NoUse> zax1 I would go with xubuntu and I would use the alternate install CD
[08:28] <Klowner> zax1: oy, that's not much, I'd say go with xubuntu
[08:29] <garryfre> sudomania4: I don't know of any way of adding a red circle or water mark to mpeg. One is still media and the other is video, apples and oranges.
[08:29] <zax1> would the differance be considerable?
[08:29] <|rt|> gteppel: depends on how the vpn's are setup and if they are on the same or different subnets I would imagine
[08:29] <zax1> % wise ?
[08:29] <NoUse> zax1 yes
[08:29] <untwisted> bah, my nickname is registered already! ><
[08:29] <zax1> chears
[08:29] <jrib> sudomania4: kino maybe (that's the only one I know about)
[08:29] <Dewbie> hmm
[08:29] <martii> zax1: will be xfce eats much less RAM than gnome
[08:29] <Dewbie> a very comon nick
[08:29] <martii> zax1: starts faster and works waster
[08:29] <martii> zax1: faster
[08:29] <untwisted> untwisted is common?
[08:29] <gteppel> |rt|, I would be connecting to an OpenVPN network and then a Cisco network
[08:30] <gteppel> and they are different subnets
[08:30] <untwisted> I've never met anyone else with this nick before and NEVER have had a problem registering it anywhere.
[08:30] <sudomania4> well, thanks
[08:30] <|rt|> gteppel: depends on how they are setup....both can be setup to send all traffic through the vpn
[08:30] <martii> gteppel: if you push routing for cisco network
[08:30] <sudomania4> it was a question a person asked and i didnt know
[08:30] <sudomania4> so thanks
[08:30] <martii> gteppel: to the openvpn client it might work
[08:30] <garryfre> untwisted: I have same issue because I upgraded and now my system is different but nickserv thinks I'm not me.
[08:30] <gteppel> martii: ok thanks
[08:30] <ubproblems> i am trying to install dapper to RAID using the http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto#Install_the_base_system but dmraid keeps failing
[08:31] <|rt|> martii: openvpn can be setup to force all traffic through the tunnel
[08:31] <ubproblems> that is apt-get install dmraid fails
[08:31] <ubproblems> it says.. invoke-rc.d: initscript dmraid, action "start" failed
[08:31] <ubproblems> dpkg: error processing dmraid (--configure)
[08:31] <ubproblems> can anyone help me get dmraid working?
[08:31] <SAM_theman> yo guys
[08:31] <martii> |rt|: as well you can push routing to specific networks
[08:31] <untwisted> garryfre: I never registered it, someone else got it before me.  I'm just surprised!
[08:31] <steev> garryfre: your system may change, your password does not (its not stored on your computer)
[08:31] <gteppel> ok thanks
[08:31] <untwisted> steev as in klabnik?
[08:32] <garryfre> steev Yeah, I kept the same password, never the less, it tells me that my nick is owned by another and it happened immediately afte formatting and upgrading from breezy to dapper.
[08:32] <garryfre> untwisted I'm also surprised.
[08:33] <steev> garryfre: the network doesn't know what OS you are running.
[08:33] <|rt|> martii: yep...but you can disable all other routes on the host as well....to the point that the computer can't even communicate to other computers on it's local network
[08:33] <untwisted> steev: are you by chance from pittsburgh?
[08:33] <garryfre> steev So what is causing it do ye think?
[08:33] <steev> untwisted: negative, tulsa, oklahoma at the moment
[08:33] <untwisted> ahhh, opposite ends of the earth practically ;)
[08:34] <psyke83> hi, I installed xubuntu-desktop and it's changed my gdm theme. I want to keep xubuntu, but change the gdm theme back to the orange default, does anyone know how?
[08:34] <NoUse> ubproblems have you tried removing it and reinstalling?
[08:34] <untwisted> psyke83: you should be able to go to the theme manager and change back to 'human'
[08:34] <untwisted> in the gdm theme manager
[08:34] <wastrel> gdm themes eh
[08:34] <wastrel> i want a blue one
[08:35] <psyke83> untwisted: where's the gdm theme manager?
[08:35] <garryfre> steev Its not much of a problem. It just gives me that message but still lets me use the same nick.
[08:35] <untwisted> it may not be called human, it may just be called ubuntu too, I'm not sure, sorry :/
[08:35] <wastrel> system->preferences->login window
[08:35] <garryfre> It is human and its the default.
[08:35] <thething> howdy all
[08:35] <untwisted> I'm a KDE man myself, so thanks wastrel :)
[08:35] <thething> anyone got vnc going from a windows machine to ubuntu?
[08:36] <psyke83> thanks wastrel, untwisted
[08:36] <steev> garryfre: yeah, but you can't message registered users
[08:36] <jrattner1> thething, yes ive done it
[08:37] <garryfre> I registrered, and Intelikey is registered, and I message him all the time.
[08:37] <jrattner1> thething, ?"
[08:37] <SWAT_laptop> what's the best way to partition a 'new' ubuntu pc? Put your /home and /boot on a seperate parititon? (and how does one do that?, put a symlink there, using a livecd?)
[08:38] <gnomefreak> steev: you have to be registered/identified to servers to be able to pm users  both users must be
[08:38] <Strike> Quick question: does the x86 install disk include non-destructive partitioning software, or is it destructive?
[08:39] <gnomefreak> Strike: you mess up it will hurt yes
[08:39] <Ayabara> is there a gnome filebrowser that have multiple panes like krusader does?
[08:39] <gavagai> SWAT_laptop, about 6 gigs is good for / and 1 gig for swap, and the rest for /home.  with a seperate /boot, yeah.  but no symlinking or anything
[08:39] <dkr> Ayabara: nautilus
[08:39] <Strike> gnomefreak: if I don't "mess it up"?
[08:39] <steev> gnomefreak: you can turn off that requirement
[08:39] <garryfre> I have been able to do thinks like toggle partitions bootable and change sizes without destroying data.
[08:39] <gnomefreak> Strike: if you dont mess up there should be nothing to worry about
[08:39] <steev> being a gentoo dev, i have it turned off as sometimes users need to message me :)
[08:39] <gnomefreak> steev: no
[08:40] <ubproblems> ok..... then does anyone know how much of a performance boost i would take if i used the raid for swap and home dir, and just put the root on an ata
[08:40] <ubproblems> ?
[08:40] <garryfre> I wouln't try it with nice try file system ntfs though. ?)
[08:40] <Strike> ok, but it will let me resize existing partitions without ruining the data?
[08:40] <gnomefreak> steev: its a freenode thing now a user thing
[08:40] <gnomefreak> Strike: should
[08:40] <Strike> ok
[08:40] <ArAnWe> 2all: problem with opera solved by wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xorg/xlibs_6.8.2-77_all.deb .....whx to all

[08:41] <Strike> lol, true
[08:41] <B1zz> hehe
[08:41] <mcpowley> hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could help me? I use ubuntu for everything...except gaming. I have windows on my drive in my laptop, and ubuntu on a 40 gig partition on  my external...is there anyway to move the linux partition to the extern al drive and move the windows to the external? Cause it really sucks to have to lug around my external drive to use my main os.
[08:41] <Bassetts> anyone have any idea why my speakers squeel at me when theres no audio and they are on?
[08:41] <Strike> I know what I'm doing with it, just didn't know... as I know a lot of the old partitioning software rendered any data left on the resized partitions useless.
[08:41] <steev> gnomefreak: im registered, and unregistered and registered alike can message me
[08:41] <garryfre> I'd back up the data but not on 80 floppies to a zip file spanning all the floppies like a real-estate client did.
[08:41] <Ayabara> dkr: can I split the window and show two different folders at once in nautilus?
[08:42] <B1zz> omg
[08:42] <garryfre> You might want to defrag first
[08:42] <B1zz> 80 floppies!
[08:42] <B1zz> deng people still use those things?
[08:43] <garryfre> Yep. I myself got an external hard drive for backup so I could turn it off and not wear it out. It fried *while it was turning off!*
[08:43] <dkr> Ayabara: ah, no, it just has different panes for the tree view versus file view
[08:43] <Bassetts> afternoon gnomefreak
[08:44] <gnomefreak> Bassetts: hello
[08:44] <Ayabara> dkr: ok. I'm used to total commander from windows. old habits die hard..
[08:44] <dkr> Ayabara: which is weird, because nautilus evolved from gmc and midnight commander had that efature
[08:45] <stevekl> Serious question: Would fonts on a LCD look better if I wore glasses?
[08:45] <B1zz> lol
[08:45] <jrattner1> How do i set up an address book server?
[08:45] <slimz> anyone know of any fax software i could use, which is similar to outlook for office?
[08:45] <garryfre> Some look better if I don't wear my glasses or just keep my eyes closed.
[08:45] <dkr> stevekl: just adjust brightness
[08:45] <Matafome> hi there ppl
[08:46] <Matafome> I need your help
[08:46] <mcpowley> hmm, does anyone know?
[08:46] <Matafome> I've just installed ubuntu dapper
[08:46] <Bassetts> anyone have any idea why my speakers squeel at me when theres no audio and they are on?
[08:46] <jrib> stevekl: do you use corrective lenses?
[08:46] <Matafome> and I've got a Vodafone Mobile Connect Card from the manufacturer Option
[08:46] <Ayabara> dkr: that does sound weird..
[08:46] <Matafome> and when I insert the card it just works out of the box if I've got signal for 3G celular netowkr
[08:46] <Matafome> network*
[08:47] <stevekl> dkr: I adjust it up and down and I still can't stand the way they look
[08:47] <Tommy2k4> whats a good audio player to use?
[08:47] <stevekl> jrib: yes
[08:47] <Matafome> but when I don't got 3G but only GPRS connection I don't know how to change the card from 3G registering to GPRS registering in the celular network
[08:47] <TheSheep> stevekl: what fonts do you use?
[08:47] <Matafome> anyone know how I can do this??
[08:47] <tiagoboldt> Tommy2k4: rhythmbox, xmms
[08:48] <TheSheep> stevekl: I highly recommend to set the DejaVu family as default in the browser
[08:48] <tiagoboldt> xmms is similar to winamp
[08:48] <stevekl> TheSheep: I've tried everything
[08:48] <stevekl> TheSheep: dejavu? Is that in ubuntu by default?
[08:48] <TheSheep> stevekl: not sure, but there is a package for sure
[08:49] <Nikyo> ok.. now i'm reg'd.. that was easy ;-)
[08:49] <geneo93> !lvm
[08:49] <ubotu> it has been said that lvm is (for the moment) http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
[08:50] <Tommy2k4> how come opera wasnt added to k-menu when i installed it
[08:50] <zombieReagan> because opera isn't open source and, therefore, the stallmand daemon will not allow it to be recognized
[08:50] <salah> hi. what's the name of nvidia graphics driver for ubuntu?
[08:50] <cyfr> Hello I have a new laptop with nvidia card and XGL installed. All seems to be fine, except, when i drag windows they become practicly invisable... anyway to change this?
[08:50] <valierien> 'lop
[08:51] <we2by> how do I configure gnome to draw the window border only when moving windows?
[08:51] <stevekl> TheSheep: Hey, these do look pretty good
[08:51] <gnomefreak> salah: nvidia-glx
[08:51] <jrattner1> ubotu tell salah about binaryDrivers
[08:51] <Tommy2k4> so it hates everything thats not open source?
[08:51] <stevekl> TheSheep: Thanks, i was geting pretty frustrated. I'll try these fonts out
[08:51] <TheSheep> stevekl: glad you like it. I also recommend the 'terminus' forn for the console
[08:51] <TheSheep> font
[08:51] <valierien> I have a wine whine
[08:51] <garryfre> Unless you have an old legacy vid card but what gnomefreak says works pretty good.
[08:51] <pixelbunnie> I hate rhythmbox icons
[08:52] <mcpowley> hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could help me? I use ubuntu for everything...except gaming. I have windows on my drive in my laptop, and ubuntu on a 40 gig partition on  my external...is there anyway to move the linux partition to the extern al drive and move the windows to the external?

[08:52] <KuLover> Does anyone have problems playing music wile useing a micraphone?
[08:52] <pepinito> hi
[08:52] <dionysos_> mcpowley: looks kinda hard :p
[08:53] <jrattner1> hi
[08:53] <Lpadmin> What does it mean when cups says "cupsd: Unable to read configuration file '/etc/cups/cupsd.conf' - exiting!"
[08:53] <pepinito> i just installed ubuntu
[08:53] <pepinito> but don't know how to see TV
[08:53] <xbeanx> Lpadmin: means cupsd can't read that file
[08:53] <xbeanx> maybe it's missing
[08:53] <pike_> mcpowley: might be easier to install ubuntu to the hd and then copy over your home dir from old install..
[08:53] <valierien> to boot from it you need a partition on the bootable drive
[08:53] <garryfre> Don't you mean you want to move one or both to the internal drive?
[08:53] <dionysos_> Lpadmin: cupsd is printer drvier
[08:53] <Lpadmin> Xbeanx, but the file exits.
[08:53] <Lpadmin> I can read the file.
[08:53] <jrattner1> Lpadmin, check the permissions
[08:53] <xbeanx> Lpadmin: could be permissions or a syntax error
[08:53] <dionysos_> Lpadmin: try to chmod it
[08:54] <valierien> refer to the bootloader doc
[08:54] <valierien> yeah, how do you admin cups without the web page?
[08:54] <Bassetts> anyone have any idea why my speakers squeel at me when theres no audio and they are on?
[08:55] <garryfre> Feed back from having your microphone on?
[08:55] <Bassetts> ni mic
[08:55] <Bassetts> no*
[08:55] <Lpadmin> Xbeanx, how do I know if there is a syntax error.
[08:55] <gorski> program for ftp transfer?
[08:56] <Lpadmin> Can I show it to you?
[08:56] <valierien> that'd be ftp at the terminal window
[08:56] <Bassetts> gftp
[08:56] <pike_> gorski: gftp i think or there is a plugin for firefox to make it a little prettier
[08:56] <xbeanx> Lpadmin: no, sorry I'm going home now
[08:56] <Bilange> theres also nautilus (click Places, Conect to a server)
[08:56] <martii> gorski: for gnome gftp
[08:56] <martii> gorski: for console lftp
[08:57] <valierien> anyone got WINE (wine is not a windows emulator)
[08:57] <valierien> working?
[08:57] <Bassetts> fireftp for firefox
[08:57] <gorski> thankx
[08:57] <Tommy2k4> how could i auto mount a networked (ntfs) drive (or better yet a specific folder) from my sisters pc?
[08:57] <someothernick> valierien, yes

[08:57] <dfr> Hi, has anyone had success installing proprietary nvidia drivers since last kernel update?

[08:58] <valierien> seg faults
[08:58] <valierien> same wine works on slack 10.x
[08:59] <dfr> or knows why it's a bad idea to do so?
[08:59] <Twinxor> holy crud, amaroK is confusing
[08:59] <Lpadmin> Xbeanx, okay. Thank you for your help!!! :)
[08:59] <mcpowley> pike_: Oh, so like format the hd, then install ubuntu, then take everything from my home drive on my external ubuntu and transfer it back over? Then I can install windows on external...would playing games on windows be anyway affected by using windows on an external? I have a 60 gb hd and a 320 external. I don't want my gaming to be affected by using windows on an external...would it be a good idea to install both os'es on the main
[08:59] <mcpowley>  60 hd, then using the 320 for the filesystem for both systesms like a 320 gb fat32 hd?

[09:01] <valierien> sure, rob a bank then send me the money
[09:01] <pike_> mcpowley: a like 1 or 2 gig partition for windows shared memory.  but really it might be easier to leave windows on the internal drive too.
[09:01] <thething> installed tightvnc which connects if i'm logged on graphically but not otherwise - anyone?
[09:01] <dfr> So guys, I've tried to install nvidia drives distributed by nvidia, however, Xserver complains that it cannot find libGLcore on start.
[09:01] <Bilange> but 7200 rpm is a good start for the drive itself
[09:02] <cosmic-hobo> Um... well, jrattner1... In the words of Weird Al Yankovic, put your head in the microwave and give yourself a tan?

[09:02] <Lpadmin> Erisco_, that depends. ;)
[09:02] <jrattner1> facebook.com > *
[09:02] <valierien> ...it works
[09:03] <erisco_> on what?
[09:03] <thething> installed tightvnc which connects if i'm logged on graphically but not otherwise - help anyone?
[09:03] <valierien> ....pretty minimal desk top set
[09:03] <dfr> noooby_god it took me a while to get my wireless working.... had to go via ndiswrapper
[09:03] <mcpowley> pike_: So just install both os'es on the main drive...if I do that, will there be a menu for me to choose between windows and linux?
[09:03] <erisco_> be right back
[09:03] <Lpadmin> Erisco, was that directed at me?
[09:03] <Tommy2k4> When I was trying to use the manual partitioner in the installer, after I had set up all the partitions and commited the changes, when I clicked next the partitions were wrong, eg I had hda5 as a 512mb fat32 and hda6 as an ext3 1gb but the next screen of the install was saying that hda5 was 1gb and hda6 was 512mb and I wasn't sure which was which because it didn't tell me the fs of each partition. When I decided to guess and just
[09:03] <jrib> wastrel: facebook is like myspace but restricted to schools, at least that's the only facebook I know of
[09:03] <pike_> mcpowley: yes. you want to make sure ubuntu is the last os intalled
[09:03] <SWAT_laptop> gavagai, uhm, can I select the partition for my /home during the installation?
[09:04] <thething> installed tightvnc which connects if i'm logged on graphically but not otherwise - help anyone? anyone listening to me atall?
[09:04] <gavagai> SWAT_laptop, you can select, create, resize, whatever
[09:04] <nooby_god> where do i put commands that I want to be executed on boot?
[09:04] <jrattner1> thething, use SSH
[09:04] <valierien> thething: I see you typing
[09:04] <Bilange> mcpowley:  refering from Wikipedia, USB 2.0 has at least 50Mb / second transfer rate, that should be sufficent for casual gaming
[09:05] <SWAT_laptop> gavagai, I know the partition process, I mean selecting that I want to use hda1 for / hda2 for /home hda3 for /boot etc.
[09:05] <Intangir> what happened to win32codecs for mplayer..
[09:05] <mcpowley> bilange: Well, I can just install graphics intensive games on the main hd if I want
[09:05] <jrib> ubotu: tell Intangir abotu w32codecs
[09:05] <valierien> ubotu: domo origato
[09:05] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, valierien
[09:05] <dfr> So no one is running nvidia drivers from nvidia.com site?
[09:06] <Morodock> mcpowley and Bilange - I've tried to game off usb2 and firewire - not cool... should be "extremely casual" like ... solitaire...
[09:06] <mcpowley> pike_: So if I didnt want to reinstall windows on this main drive(It's already on there) Can I just format a partition of 20 gigs and install ubuntu on that right now?
[09:06] <Tommy2k4> can anyone help with  the problem I had with partitioning during install
[09:06] <Bilange> mcpowley: you can also do that too-- but Im not sure if theres an easy _and_ automatic way of setting up a bootup menu for you to choose between Windows and Ubuntu/Linux.. this thing does exist, but you may have to get your hands dirty a bit
[09:06] <valierien> Tommy : whats the prob?
[09:06] <tomas_> hi can anyone help me with my webcam?
[09:06] <ackeubu_> Hey guys, I am working on some files on a couple of different computers. Is there an application that would help me syncronise my files if i have a server to upload tehm to?
[09:06] <tomas_> it worked a while in amsn but now it dissapears in amsn
[09:06] <valierien> rsync

[09:06] <Bilange> Morodock:  well... I dont think Bf2 with its loading times can be called "casual":)
[09:07] <neutrinomass> ackeubu_: Depends on how sophisticated you want this. You could set up a simple FTP server, or something more advanced like CVS/SVN
[09:07] <valierien> ackeubu: rsync
[09:07] <tomas_> Subhuman: thanks
[09:07] <gorski> gftp cannot connect to microsoft servers?
[09:07] <jrattner1> gorski, it can connect to anything
[09:07] <Morodock> Bilange - you've played bf2 off usb?
[09:08] <Bilange> Morodock:  nope :)
[09:08] <darius_> Where could I download Ubuntu packages from manually?
[09:08] <Bilange> did you^
[09:08] <darius_> I looked ath the repositories .. but I don't see the application packages themselves
[09:08] <Tommy2k4> valierien: any ideas?
[09:08] <neutrinomass> Tommy2k4: That probably reflects a bug in the installer. If you can't get around it, install using the alternate CD. Please please please report this to Launchpad ( http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+filebug )
[09:08] <ackeubu_> neutrinomass I would prefer something that automatically synced my files from a specified folder.
[09:08] <Morodock> yeah -- and it's not worth it
[09:08] <Bilange> Morodock:  i thought it was long enough on a ide connection, I wondered about usb
[09:08] <valierien> Tommy : try again and make notes, its not that hard
[09:08] <Morodock> you can SORT OF play singly player - multi = recipie for embarassment
[09:08] <TimMagic> i am having trouble with my wifi card - can someone help?
[09:09] <valierien> I have had the same type of issue, I just paid attention, forget what I did differently
[09:09] <neutrinomass> ackeubu_: Not sure then :(
[09:09] <nooby_god> how do I get beagle and integrate it into my desktop?
[09:09] <Morodock> my gaming system now is raid 0 :)
[09:09] <Tommy2k4> valierien: its not that i forgot which was which, its that it said hda5 was 1gb and hda6 was 512mb when i specifically set them to be vice versa
[09:09] <TimMagic> its installed correctly and connected to my router just fine, but it wont connect to the internet or mail servers
[09:09] <NoUse> darius_ packages.ubuntu.com
[09:09] <mcpowley> Bilange: So If I went ahead and installed ubuntu on an ext 3 20 gig partition, when I boot my computer, it would boot into windows automatically?
[09:09] <valierien> ackebu : rsynch -- its a joy
[09:09] <Tommy2k4> and they were different file systems so just guessing could screw things up
[09:09] <NoUse> darius_ you should use apt-get whenever possible though
[09:09] <Bilange> Morodock:  whats a raid0? 2 Mirrored drives?
[09:09] <Matafome> Anyone knows how to change the option quad pcmcia 3G card to get GPRS connection to the Internet when no 3G network detected????
[09:09] <Tommy2k4> and that doesn't explain why it said i needed over 2048 when i had it set as way higher
[09:09] <pixelbunnie> anyone know how to MANUALLY change Rhythmbox ICONS
[09:09] <pixelbunnie> ?
[09:09] <Morodock> no, not mirrored, just for performance
[09:09] <Morodock> stripped
[09:10] <valierien> Tommy : assuming youre formatting them anyway, just try again
[09:10] <pixelbunnie> because I'm entirely OVER minimalist icons
[09:10] <Tommy2k4> i tried several times
[09:10] <Morodock> dual sli system, 4 gigs ram, blah, blah... bottom line = great graphics, great performance.
[09:10] <Bilange> mcpowley:  Did you say you had a 60gb internal drive? you can also use 30/30 for every os too
[09:10] <BCS> whats a good backup software that can backup a whole system
[09:10] <valierien> tar
[09:10] <mcpowley> yeah I have a 60 gig internal
[09:10] <Bilange> mcpowley:  actually I have a 40gb here, and its more than enough if you download not oo much
[09:11] <Bilange> "too much"*
[09:11] <mcpowley> i might just totally format the internal
[09:11] <Tommy2k4> another problem with the installer is that when defining the partitions, if you click on create after creating another one without first clicking on the the free space partition the installer will go blank and you have to go back and start the partitioning again
[09:11] <Matafome> BCS, you may use dd
[09:11] <Subhuman> Morodock, you realise with AID 0 ( :P ) that hdd failures are MORE Likely?
[09:11] <Subhuman> cuz of the double the chance of failiure.
[09:11] <Morodock> Subhuman - yep
[09:11] <mcpowley> but I play a lot of games, big games...so i don't know
[09:11] <dfr> has anyone had problems getting the nvidia drivers to work?
[09:11] <Subhuman> id always go for raid 5
[09:11] <Morodock> but it's a gaming rig -- who cares
[09:11] <count> Is there any reason apt-get would endless time out at 99% for me?  Using us.archive and just archive ?
[09:11] <Morodock> it's not a server
[09:11] <Morodock> my servers on raid 5
[09:11] <Subhuman> less waste than 1 and performance better than 0
[09:11] <Paul_Lagrange> t verison: (eft when its open)
 speaking of windows... i haven't logged in to my window
[09:11] <BCS> MatafomeL whats dd i get almost 400 results from an apt-cache search dd
[09:11] <Ayabara> I'm having some problems with video quality. My videos look better in xp than in ubuntu, also when playing with vlc. Is there a way to check that my display drivers are working properly?
[09:11] <Bilange> mcpowley:  well in this case I might save the external for moving data around, like Isos and such, and keep the windows' side of the disk for games
[09:12] <Paul_Lagrange> t verison: (eft when its open)
 speaking of windows... i haven't logged in to my window
[09:12] <Paul_Lagrange> sorry
[09:12] <Subhuman> Ayabara, are these dvds? u might not have dma enabled
[09:12] <Morodock> raid 5 would have been pretty $$$ on this system.. also.. was running out of power for a desktop unit
[09:12] <Subhuman> !dma
[09:12] <ubotu> Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[09:12] <Morodock> so much junk in there already
[09:12] <Subhuman> Morodock, 5 only needs 3 disks.
[09:12] <Morodock> only had space for maybe 2 - 3 drives
[09:12] <Tommy2k4> is it possible repartition my drive from inside ubuntu
[09:12] <Morodock> yeah, I had them try to install 4 drives, with raid 5
[09:12] <valierien> so, wine will work on dapper (hypothetically)
[09:13] <Morodock> system crashed horribly each time
[09:13] <Ayabara> Subhuman: no, they are just clips on the hd
[09:13] <Morodock> actually returned the system 3 times
[09:13] <Morodock> then, took one home with no mods... been happy every since
[09:13] <rbgCODE_> anyone have ideas for software to convert pictures into a dvd format with sound?
[09:13] <Tommy2k4> the pc i use 24/7 is a 733mhz p3 with 256mb ram
[09:13] <Paul_Lagrange> anyone can help? my keyboard works while logging in, then no more inside kde. Use Dapper Drake.
[09:13] <Subhuman> Ayabara, no i mean is it enabled in ubuntu?
[09:13] <mcpowley> bilange: Yeah, and I guess I could just keep the games im playing on my main disk..like source and cod2
[09:13] <Morodock> I'm sure if I went with dell or alianware it would have been better... but cost even more $$$
[09:13] <Ayabara> hmm. could be dma even if it's not dvds?
[09:13] <Subhuman> dma is OS controlled.
[09:13] <Tommy2k4> i have an athlon 2500+ with 1gb ram downstairs but that would mean being next to my dad all day and id rather not >_<
[09:13] <Morodock> already wasted WAY to much $$ on a dumb gaming rig...
[09:13] <Subhuman> Ayabara, unlikely.
[09:14] <mcpowley> bilange: How much is is a good amount to allocate to ubuntu?
[09:14] <pixelbunnie> anyone know to to MANUALLY change RHYTHMBOX icons?
[09:14] <count> Does anyone else have a problem with apt-get timing out after 99% or waiting for headers?
[09:14] <Subhuman> mcpowley, if you keep multimedia seperate.... 10gb?
[09:14] <count> > Get:2 http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper/main libdbi-perl 1.50-1 [623kB] 
[09:14] <count> > 1% [2 libdbi-perl 621960/623kB 99%] 
[09:14] <count> it just sits there, forever
[09:14] <valierien> pixelbunnie : properties in the shortcut (launcher)
[09:14] <Bilange> mcpowley:  my point is: keep the windows partition for gaming and ONLY that... downloads, patches, and _Everything_ except games installation can be put on your external, so you have more room for gaming
[09:14] <mcpowley> bilange: And i'm going to have a 320 gigs maybe 120 of that fat32, so accessable to windows and linux
[09:14] <nooby_god> how do I make wlan0 get a static ipaddress?
[09:14] <Ayabara> Subhuman: have not played dvds, so that's probably not it then
[09:14] <Tommy2k4> how can i play music over the network from my sisters windows box
[09:15] <count> nooby_god: put it in /etc/network/interfaces
[09:15] <valierien> Tommy : mount the file system
[09:15] <Dewbie> use shoutcast
[09:15] <Sammy> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasd   w      ww w w
[09:15] <nooby_god> no, what's the command for that?
[09:15] <gnomefreak> Sammy: dont do that please
[09:15] <Tommy2k4> valierien: but she would have a different ip every time she reboots
[09:15] <count> nooby_god: ifconfig wlan0 inet x.x.x.x netmask x.x.x.x ?
[09:15] <Sammy> My bad
[09:15] <pixelbunnie> I mean the PLAY/PREVIOUS/NEXT icons... I mean.. hehe
[09:15] <pike_> mcpowley: my setup is 10gb for / and 80gb for /home (i install linux games to my home dir)and 800gb for /mnt/share :)
[09:15] <Sammy> I was playing a game and my comp froz
[09:15] <Tommy2k4> any way to mount by pc name instead of ip like i could on windows
[09:15] <Sammy> and a is to move to the right
[09:16] <nooby_god> so if I want wlan0 to get an ipaddress of 192.168.1.99 it's, ifconfig wlan0 inet 192.168.1.99 ?
[09:16] <count> Tommy2k4: use nbd?
[09:16] <Morodock> Tom39Away - Samba
[09:16] <Matafome> Anyone knows how to change the option quad pcmcia 3G card to get GPRS connection to the Internet when no 3G network detected????
[09:16] <Sammy> gnomefreak, My bad didn't mean for that to happen
[09:16] <Ayabara> is there a way to check that my display driver is working as it should performancewise?
[09:16] <valierien> Tommy : sure, configure the DNS to get dyn updates from the DHCP server
[09:16] <Bilange> mcpowley:  well... consider a standard ubuntu installation needs like 3 gb to barely breathe, afterwards it depends of how much you add up new programs... but my guess is that you may be able to live well with 10gb, and add an external ext2 on your external too
[09:16] <count> nooby_god: yeah, gotta put the netmask on though
[09:16] <count> nooby_god: well, it might defautl to netmask 255.255.255.0
[09:16] <count> not sure on the default
[09:16] <Bassetts> i have a slight problem with a shared folder on my xp vm, and it displaying in the network servers in nautilus
[09:16] <nooby_god> count: that is my netmask
[09:16] <Matafome> Anyone knows how to change the option quad pcmcia 3G card to get GPRS connection to the Internet when no 3G network detected????
[09:16] <count> Matafome: it doesn't do that automatically?
[09:16] <anoop> hiiiiiiiiiiii
[09:17] <count> Matafome: my evdo card downgrades transparently
[09:17] <anoop> any 1 frm india
[09:17] <nooby_god> Does anone here use amarok?
[09:17] <Matafome> count, yes when I've got 3G signal
[09:17] <Bilange> mcpowley:  err, I meant: and you could also add up with an external ext2 partition for a complementary /home directory... i think you got the point :)
[09:17] <Matafome> but when I don't have 3G signal it just sits blinking red and blue
[09:17] <gnomefreak> anoop: join #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat
[09:17] <Matafome> and don't gets to the GPRS network
[09:17] <Matafome> and I need this
[09:17] <count> Matafome: are you sure your card supports GPRS?
[09:17] <Matafome> yes
[09:18] <Mitja> Can anyone please help me open a port? 80 preferably. I've used iptables, ipchains complains about port being unavailable, and nmap says it's open. However, only local browsers see it. What am I missing here?
[09:18] <Matafome> In windows it supports
[09:18] <Matafome> it's a 3G/GPRS card
[09:18] <Matafome> in suse it worked with both
[09:18] <pixelbunnie> so my question is how to MANUALLY change the PLAY/PREV/NEXT icons in RHYTHMBOX
[09:18] <count> Matafome: sorry, not sure :(
[09:18] <Ademan> anyone here have problems of unreal tournament running WAY WAY too fast? i need to frame rate limit it... really... is there a way to?
[09:18] <valierien> pixelbunnie: get the source, change em and re-build it
[09:18] <count> haha, too fast? :)
[09:18] <untwisted> Ademan why would you ever need to limit your frame rate?
[09:18] <mcpowley> bilange: Yeah, I was kind of confused about that whole partitioning when I installed ubuntu on my external...i made 2 partititions one for the swap and one for /, was I supposed to make anything else?
[09:18] <Bassetts> i changed my xp workgroup from workgroup to mshome as the rest of my windows pcs are on mshome, but ubuntu is still seeing it as on workgroupm how can i fix this?
[09:18] <pixelbunnie> oh boy
[09:18] <AlienX> Ademan, isn't it generally a good thing that the frame rates are high?
[09:19] <pixelbunnie> but I'll try
[09:19] <Matafome> count, you don't know where I can get more info
[09:19] <Mike47> Hello, does anyone have a handle on ubuntu accessibility?  I can'
[09:19] <Bilange> mcpowley:  basically no, but... [typing] 
[09:19] <count> Matafome: what kind of card?
[09:19] <we2by> !azureus
[09:19] <count> Try looking through suse's config scripts
[09:19] <ubotu> hmm... azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[09:19] <count> or driver
[09:19] <valierien> pixelbunnie: hey, at least you can get the source, with windows you have to use white out and crayolas
[09:19] <Matafome> is the option quad globetrotter provided by Vodafone
[09:19] <pixelbunnie> lmao.. this is true
[09:19] <Morodock> Ademan - are you sure it's the frame rate and not clock speed / timing issue? although i thought that only affected older games
[09:19] <cosmic-hobo> The problem with using white-out is, it never comes off the monitor ;)
[09:19] <Bilange> mcpowley:  most people likes to add another partition for the /home directory, where most of the user downloads usually go
[09:19] <pixelbunnie> thanks for the advice
[09:19] <Mike47> t get Gnopernicus to speak...I've done all I can trying various options with a sighted persons help.
[09:19] <basti> Is it normal that once I install compiz/xgl and log inte a xgl session that the fgl_glxgears command stop working??
[09:20] <Ademan> untwisted and AlienX: because when the frame rate gets high the game physically goes faster, rather than just being a good frame rate
[09:20] <valierien> pixelbunnie : for a fee I could show you how to do that
[09:20] <mcpowley> bilange: Oh, i see.so should I just stick that /home dir on external with like 30 gigs?
[09:20] <untwisted> Ademan: the brain can't process more than ~30 frame per second anyway, the more frames per second wouldn't really effect the game play.  This sounds like a different issue.
[09:20] <Bilange> mcpowley:  but thats totally optionnal. the major advantage of doing this is that you can always reinstall ubuntu or any other linux distribution while keeping most of your settings for your programs
[09:20] <mcpowley> bilange: Also, is the linux swap partition essential?
[09:20] <basti> !xgl
[09:20] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems.  Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[09:20] <untwisted> Ademan: which UT are we talking here?  UT, 2k3, or 2k4?
[09:20] <Ademan> untwisted: its because the game isnt time based its frame based
[09:20] <Ademan> the original
[09:20] <valierien> mcpowley : cant boot without it, probably
[09:21] <Bilange> mcpowley:  for the swap, since you mentionned you had only like 64mb of memory, its quite vital, yeah...
[09:21] <Ademan> well, i can only assume thats the case, because thats the symptoms i'm having
[09:21] <valierien> !wine
[09:21] <KuLover> Anyone haveing problems with sound on flash in FireFox?
[09:21] <ubotu> Wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on linux.  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wine for more info.
[09:21] <Bassetts> anyone know much about samba?
[09:21] <count> Matafome: are ubuntu and suse using the same driver? same version?
[09:21] <Ademan> and limiting the frame rate SHOULD relieve the symptoms i'm describing
[09:21] <wastrel> KuLover:  there's info about that on the restrictedformats wiki page
[09:21] <Ademan> Bassetts: samba is essentialyl windows share, why?
[09:21] <valierien> bassets what you need?
[09:21] <Matafome> count, in suse I'm using a script from www.pharscape.org
[09:21] <Matafome> the gcom script
[09:22] <count> does it run on ubuntu? :)
[09:22] <untwisted> Would changing the priority with nice help possibly?  It would only be a hack but it might help.
[09:22] <KuLover> Wastrel I thought I had already look, thanks.. I'll look again.
[09:22] <Matafome> but Iin ubuntu the card is detected out of the box
[09:22] <untwisted> I wouldn't be the person to talk to about that really though...
[09:22] <Bilange> mcpowley:  but the /home partition is quite necessary too.. you may boot even if your USB drive isnt there, but once you logged in, the system would whine about not finding your settings (aka the /home directory), so Im not sure how the system would react
[09:22] <Ademan> untwisted: i'll give it a shot
[09:22] <Bratsche> Is it bad to get messages preventing you to boot into the live CD?
[09:22] <Bassetts> Ademan: i have xp in a vm and i used to have vista, ubuntu or smb is still seeing my vista share, and its also seeing my xp share as on the wrong workgroup and the wrong pc name
[09:23] <Matafome> count, if it get's 3G celular network it register in the network and the only thing that I've got to do is dialling the number *99***1#
[09:23] <untwisted> Ademan: stick around here a few more minutes, I'll try to come up with something better
[09:23] <mcpowley> bilange: I actually have 2 gigs memory
[09:23] <valierien> Bassetts : check that the share name is less than 15 chars
[09:23] <Matafome> but I can change the network to GPRS
[09:23] <gnomefreak> cosmic-hobo: than join #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:23] <Ademan> Bassetts: have you tried restarting? it probably needs to refresh
[09:23] <Bassetts> valierien: check
[09:23] <N1X0N> !evolution
[09:23] <ubotu> evolution is, like, an e-mail client. It comes with Ubuntu.
[09:23] <valierien> ...the NB spec sticks stuff right in the name at pos 15 on
[09:23] <Bassetts> Ademan: restarted the vm
[09:23] <m0Zzg> http://linuxff.org.ru
[09:23] <count> Matafome: check this out:
[09:23] <cosmic-hobo> I should stick around, gnomefreak - I might learn something ;)
[09:23] <Ademan> Bassetts: no you should restart samba, or your computer
[09:23] <ackeubu_> Hey guys, I have 2 ubuntu machines and 1 mac on my network. I believe I can connect to the mac with smb. But I cant connect to my ubuntu machines. How do I set up my ubuntus to allow access to eachother?
[09:24] <count> Matafome: > http://www.pharscape.org/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=28
[09:24] <count> Matafome: look at uh
[09:24] <Bassetts> Ademan: how do i restart samba?
[09:24] <Ademan> Bassetts: since its samba that needs to refresh
[09:24] <count> Matafome: 2.3
[09:24] <Ademan> Bassetts: i'd personally just restart your comp
[09:24] <Matafome> ok count Im gonna take a look
[09:24] <valierien> bassetts: Is this a NT partition?
[09:24] <mcpowley> bilange: Okay, so im just trying to figure out right now how I should partition my drives...so i think a 40 gig ntfs, and then the rest linux...but im kinda confused how to partition...like how much to /home, swap, and /
[09:24] <count> Matafome: you probably need to adjust your AT commands when you dial to get both
[09:24] <Bassetts> Ademan: ok
[09:24] <Bassetts> brb then
[09:24] <Matafome> count, but the problem isn't that
[09:24] <valierien> bassets: /etc/rc.d/rc.samba restart
[09:24] <Bilange> mcpowley:  oh, sorry. I saw someone else answer gave me his specs and though he was you. Since you have 2gb of swap file, you dont need to make a big partition for swapping... 1gb will do
[09:24] <Matafome> I've tried this already count
[09:25] <count> Matafome: you set AT_OPSYS=5 ?
[09:25] <Matafome> yes
[09:25] <nooby_god> Does anyone here use Amarok?
[09:25] <KuLover> I do
[09:25] <Bassetts> valierien: that doesnt work
[09:25] <valierien> shoot they changed that too
[09:25] <nooby_god> Amarok is not playing audio for me
[09:25] <nooby_god> at all
[09:25] <Bassetts> valierien: bash: /etc/rc.d/rc.samba: No such file or directory
[09:25] <Bassetts> brb
[09:25] <Matafome> count,  it get a kernel translator automatically
[09:25] <we2by> how do I configure gnome to draw the window border only when moving windows?
[09:25] <Matafome> to put the card working
[09:25] <KuLover> Look at the Restriced formats wiki page, nooby_god.
[09:26] <count> Matafome: kernel translator?
[09:26] <Bilange> mcpowley:  to give you an example, on my 40gb installation, i have 15gb for /, 25 or so for /home, and the rest for my swap
[09:26] <Matafome> it tries to get interface
[09:26] <untwisted> Ademan:  Yah, I can't really find anything else or think of any way to slow it down other than with priority.  You'll want to give it a *higher* nice nuber (try 19)
[09:26] <Matafome> I'm not in ubuntu because this I can't post the messages from my /var/log/messages
[09:26] <Twinxor> thanks for the help
[09:27] <Bilange> mcpowley:  but if you use your external drive alot, you may also trim your /home a bit, but id say that 10 to 15gb for the / partition is more than sufficent, whatever you choose
[09:27] <count> Arrrrrgghhh
[09:27] <count> apt-get is pissing me off
[09:27] <livingdaylight> I tried:  mms://202.184.158.12:3003/worldcup2006 but it won't open with Totem. Can someone help me try to open it with Realplayer, or tell me what is missing with Totem?
[09:27] <Spy> hey all
[09:27] <count> Is anyone using us.archive.ubuntu.com in their sources.list??
[09:27] <valierien> well, this is fun
[09:27] <Matafome> count,  it appears in var/log/messages option quad driver --> connect to dev/ttyUSB0 to /dev/ttyUSB0
[09:27] <rbgCODE_> count I am
[09:28] <Matafome> but this is applyed in the pcmcia
[09:28] <count> rbgCODE_: are you having any issues with timing out?  I've been trying for like an hour to get a stupid package installed

[09:30] <Bilange> mcpowley:  sounds good, as long as you dont fear about getting slowdowns when gaming from your external drive... you can also enlarge your windows partition by reducing the /home one, keeping /home big enough for your most important data (when you're not going to have your external around)

[09:31] <bcc_> guys, i created two files and looped to two devices and then put those devices under a raid1, and now after creating some files on the raid, the two files differ. shouldn't they both be the same?
[09:31] <Bratsche> TheSheep: All I know is that when I boot off the live CD of xubuntu (I have a slow computer), a message appears saying "SMP mptable: null local APID address"
[09:31] <Matafome> If I can get ubuntu working with 3G I will get here and post the /var/log/messages at pastebin to anybody that can help take alook

[09:31] <ubotu> or if you get errors saying gcc cannot create executables, or that you can't find header files like stdio.h, or get "make: command not found, then you need to do a    sudo apt-get install build-essential.
[09:31] <livingdaylight> Hexidigital: common, i have been, but no sign of life and the screen just scrolling along
[09:31] <nalioth> Snake: install build-essential (no s)

[09:31] <count> NoUse: Thanks
[09:31] <Snake> (im running default kernel)
[09:31] <Hexidigital> livingdaylight:: nein... i do not have realplayer
[09:32] <livingdaylight> Hexidigital: nothing works with Totem. But it is supposed to work with realplayer
[09:32] <Flannel> joebush: packages are preconfigured to work with each other.  Releases have shorter timeframe, more regular.
[09:32] <jadaz87> joebush: more support
[09:32] <rbgCODE_> HOLY CRAP 5 new updates for ubuntu just posted
[09:32] <count> Snake: they're not installed by default

[09:32] <TheSheep> Bratsche: the acronym stands for simultaneus multi processing
[09:32] <livingdaylight> Hexidigital: how can i choose realplayer instead of totem kicking in, ja?
[09:32] <Hexidigital> livingdaylight:: you said you cannot get to work with totem
[09:32] <count> you have to install linux source package
[09:32] <joebush> Great. Was afraid they were too closely tied in with Debians packages
[09:32] <joebush> Thanks for the info
[09:32] <Bassetts> Ademan: the workgroup called "workgroup" is still there, but my vista pc has gone

[09:36] <kudzubane> thoreauputic: truth, but it's dead to me now :P
[09:36] <Warbo> we2by: That would be for Metacity (the window manager) but I don't think it's possible in Metacity
[09:36] <Bilange> mcpowley:  hmm, i would install windows first, then ubuntu
[09:36] <jrattner1> tomas_, that certainly sounds urgent : )
[09:36] <we2by> why not?

[09:37] <Bilange> windows doesnt know how to boot linux partitions, but ubuntnu knows how to boot on windows
[09:37] <Warbo> we2by: Just that I don't think it's been implemented. You could use a different Window Manager if you want
[09:37] <tomas_> jrattner1: help would be appreciated
[09:37] <jrattner1> tomas_, unfortuantely this is an area i dont know about, sorry
[09:37] <Bilange> the thing is, Im not sure if everything will be set up automaticly, but you may just get back here for help once you're there
[09:37] <Flannel> pradeep: shrug, theyre about the same from a users perspective.  But you can get frontends for either, I just don't know of any for cvs, having never used it.

[09:43] <untwisted> Frenchtomytoast: Are you using a laptop?
[09:43] <Warbo> livingdaylight: I have found Totems Internet capabilities lacking, yes (when playing RealPlayer files you cannot skip forwards or back, so if the stream loses it's connection halfway through you either have to start it again or [try to]  watch it in RealPlayer)
[09:43] <nathanael> I have a ubuntu system at home, and I am currently on a laptop with FC5, how can I initiate a remote X session on my home PC?

[09:44] <nathanael> ok - how do I do that?
[09:44] <Flannel> nathanael: or, some sort of tunneling
[09:44] <untwisted> Frenchtomytoast: I think its an ACPI issue not a video card driver, my Acer (uses an ATI card) does the same thing and I've heard of others with it (and no solution)
[09:44] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, - did you get it that time?
[09:44] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: see what ubotu posted above
[09:44] <gnomefreak> ty thething
[09:44] <untwisted> livingdaylight: have you tried mplayer?
[09:44] <gnomefreak> oops
[09:44] <gnomefreak> thoreauputic: ty
[09:44] <NoUse> livingdaylight mms is microsoft media, it probably won't play in real players
[09:44] <VonGeist> I just finished installing ubuntu server and for some reason its not letting me log in. I've re-installed to make sure I put in the right uid and pwd but it keeps telling me login incorrect. Any ideas?
[09:44] <nathanael> When I SSH in and try to run xclock, it comes back with "couldn't open display"
[09:44] <frenchtomytoast> untwisted: It worked fine before I installed the Nvidia driver, that's why I think it's weird. Oh well, I'll just have to wait for a fix. Thanks :)
[09:44] <thoreauputic> gnomefreak: thank apt-cache search :)
[09:45] <Cntryboy> grr
[09:45] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: i 've got my media codecs, thx
[09:45] <SeanTater> Has anyone used Smart Package Manager in Dapper recently?
[09:45] <gnomefreak> NoUse: what about w32codecs
[09:45] <Cntryboy> bout time I got out of that query window lol
[09:45] <[Ex0r] > i used apt to install ant and java, so it should have automatically set it up
[09:45] <untwisted> frenchtomytoast: no prob, good luck with it, sorry I can't be of more help!
[09:45] <Cntryboy> i have to reg to be able to msg u rbgcode_
[09:45] <NoUse> gnomefreak does realplayer link to w32codecs?
[09:45] <Warbo> RealPlayer plays RealMedia files, but RealOne (on Windows) is designed as a complete replacement for the default media players
[09:45] <[Ex0r] > and in installed the java5 sdk
[09:45] <livingdaylight> untwisted:  mplayer alone? shows me no where i can paste link?
[09:45] <rbgCODE_> Cntryboy do you have AIM Yahoo or MSN or anything else
[09:45] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : for courtesy, i recommend you preface your sentences with the persons name you are talking to
[09:45] <Drake_> anyone have time to help me with suggestions of troubleshooting that networking connection dropping?
[09:45] <Cntryboy> yes
[09:45] <gnomefreak> NoUse: im thinking yes but i dont know for sure
[09:45] <NoUse> livingdaylight run mplayer <url>
[09:45] <Warbo> livingdaylight: copy it to a command line (gmplayer uses a GUI)
[09:46] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, not used to having this big and active of a channel. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15699 is the url
[09:46] <rbgCODE_> Cntryboy Y! and AIM = rbgCODE  MSN= rbgCODE@msn.com
[09:46] <Cntryboy> kk
[09:46] <N1X0N> is there a way to adjust server timeouts with evolution so that it doesn't sit stuck all the time at "fetching mail"?
[09:46] <cwojack> Still no help. Should I wait?
[09:46] <untwisted> livingdaylight: Try getting the mplayer-firefox plugin (I dont remember the name and I'm in [ugh]  window so I can't apt-cache it).  Then you can open the link in your browser, it works really well.
[09:46] <livingdaylight> Warbo: i use xine backend
[09:46] <pradeep> Flannel, lincvs looks promising thanks :)
[09:46] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : let me look
[09:46] <Drake_> when downloading large packages breezy seems to freeze up and then I don't have any connection to my gateway router, where would I found the source of that?
[09:46] <NoUse> untwisted livingdaylight its called mozilla-mplayer
[09:46] <SeanTater> Anyone here used Smart package manager?
[09:47] <Warbo> livingdaylight: MPlayer uses it's own engine which usually works (I prefer Totem for it's UI though :))
[09:47] <[Ex0r] > nalioth: I used apt to install java and jdk as well as ant, so it should have configured it all automatically
[09:47] <untwisted> nouse: thanks, thats it :D
[09:47] <ithiel> nalioth: hey. been a long time. thinking about joining a project
[09:47] <livingdaylight> NoUse: i have mozillamplayer installed
[09:47] <foxpaul> hi all - does anyone know if its possible to run shell commands from a telnet session?
[09:47] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : did you install the sun-java sdk ?
[09:47] <untwisted> livingdaylight: and opening the link in a browser doesn't work?
[09:47] <NoUse> livingdaylight so put that mms url in firefox
[09:47] <[Ex0r] > i installed the sun-java5-sdk
[09:47] <livingdaylight> untwisted:  and do what? i've got mplayer
[09:47] <Warbo> foxpaul: I think that's what telnet is for :)
[09:48] <livingdaylight> untwisted: totem kicks in
[09:48] <untwisted> ooooh
[09:48] <VonGeist> I just finished installing ubuntu server and for some reason its not letting me log in. I've re-installed to make sure I put in the right uid and pwd but it keeps telling me login incorrect. Any ideas why it would be doing that? Is there something I'm missing?
[09:48] <NoUse> livingdaylight have you install totem-xine and w32codecs?
[09:48] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, i installed the sun-java5-sdk
[09:48] <uXp> anyone know of a good desktop recording program?
[09:48] <foxpaul> Warbo but how do i run a shell command? only certain telnet commands are valid
[09:48] <livingdaylight> NoUse: of course
[09:48] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: install mimms
[09:48] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : it looks like your ant settings are looking for an older java
[09:49] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: mimms, ok
[09:49] <[Ex0r] > nalioth- java5 was the only one that apt had
[09:49] <NoUse> gnomefreak that will enabled him to download a live stream of the world cup, kinda defeats the purpose, no?
[09:49] <Warbo> foxpaul: Well I don't use telnet sorry (only for MLDonkey, and SSH is too complicated)
[09:49] <untwisted> I personally would reinstall the mplayer-firefox but I'm noobish and don't know a better way of doing it.
[09:49] <foxpaul> Warbo: righto, cheers
[09:49] <thething> this is SO FRUSTRATING :|
[09:49] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : there are now 3 different java implementations available via synaptic
[09:49] <gnomefreak> NoUse: thats one thing to help him view it
[09:49] <foxpaul> anyone have an idea how to run shell commands from within a telnet session?
[09:49] <nalioth> ubotu tell untwisted about mplayer
[09:49] <count> foxpaul: is that a trick question?
[09:49] <NoUse> livingdaylight have you tried just opening the stream with mplayer?
[09:49] <uXp> anyone know of a good desktop recording program?
[09:50] <foxpaul> count: no
[09:50] <thething> surely it's a SIMPLE THING!
[09:50] <Warbo> [Ex0r] : You can install them all and use the alternatives system to choose which is default (galternatives is a GUI for that)
[09:50] <count> foxpaul: what do you mean?
[09:50] <NoUse> livingdaylight or vlc
[09:50] <untwisted> thanks nalioth, its not an mplayer issue so much as not knowing how to change config stuff ;)
[09:50] <count> foxpaul: like, /exec in an irc client or something?
[09:50] <foxpaul> count: run a kill command, for example
[09:50] <jrib> uXp: try istanbul
[09:50] <josh__> hello
[09:50] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, - what do I look under, jdk ?
[09:50] <livingdaylight> NoUse: its no use : ) how do i paste in mplayer
[09:50] <thething> i mean people must do this ALL THE TIME
[09:50] <livingdaylight> i try mimms
[09:50] <Warbo> jrib: I think that's broken in Dapper
[09:50] <count> foxpaul: on your local host or on the telnet destination?
[09:50] <NoUse> livingdaylight console: mplayer <url>
[09:50] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : search for 'java'
[09:50] <josh__> #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:50] <uXp> jrib:  it crashes while i use it
[09:50] <NoUse> livingdaylight pretty simple
[09:50] <thething> so why is it so fx83ng HARD?
[09:50] <Warbo> uXp: xvidcap
[09:50] <foxpaul> count: i've got a process which has gone nuts and can't ssh into the machine, but can telnet in on port 22 - so i need to kill the process
[09:51] <foxpaul> count on the destination
[09:51] <jrib> Warbo: oh..., uXp: never mind then, I only used it on breezy
[09:51] <[Ex0r] > nalioth, - i found the eclipse one
[09:51] <nalioth> [Ex0r] : join me in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[09:51] <count> foxpaul: you are running telnetd on 22?
[09:51] <count> or trying to telnet into the SSH port?
[09:51] <thething> I really would appreciate some help
[09:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> eww Telnet
[09:51] <foxpaul> count: trying to telnet to the ssh port
[09:51] <count> foxpaul: dosn't work like that
[09:51] <count> foxpaul: unless you speak AES
[09:52] <uXp> Warbo:  from synaptic Pkg manager?
[09:52] <Agrajag> foxpaul: I hate to break this to you, but that's not going to work.
[09:52] <Kyral_FreeBSD> only thing Telnet is good for is playing Nethack on nethack.alt.org
[09:52] <Tommy2k4> hmm its not even letting me mount the network driving manually using the ip in console
[09:52] <count> telnet is great for debugging smtp problems :)
[09:52] <Agrajag> Port 22 is SSH, you're connecting to an unresponsive SSHd
[09:52] <Kyral_FreeBSD> that too
[09:52] <cwojack> So no luck getting help.  Oh well.
[09:52] <untwisted> Kyral_FreeBSD: thats not true!!  There are other MUDs too ;)
[09:52] <Tommy2k4> yet no errors
[09:52] <Kyral_FreeBSD> or showing off by sending Email just by conversing with the SMTP server :D
[09:52] <Warbo> uXp: I think it is in there, but there is a gvidcap program which I don't know if it is in Synaptic and that is a nice GUI (you may notice it on many screencasts)
[09:52] <thoreauputic> Kyral_FreeBSD: not so - telnet is useful for checking to see if a daemon is listening on a port ( 25, 22, whatever)
[09:53] <thoreauputic> telnet client, not server
[09:53] <Nightwish1986> Hi! Anyone experience in sound/ALSA  who can help me?
[09:53] <thething> bailing out cause i'm not finding the help i need :(
[09:53] <uXp> Warbo:  can't find either of those under Pkg manager
[09:53] <Warbo> Nightwish1986: What is the problem?
[09:53] <untwisted> thething whats your problem?
[09:53] <Warbo> uXp: OK, they may be on gnomefiles.org or if not use Google
[09:53] <eugman> I somehow accidental made my nautilus icons all small looking any idea how to fix?
[09:53] <uXp> kk
[09:54] <Nightwish1986> Warbo: I have a Analog Digital 1986A, and the sound has an awful beep in it
[09:54] <NoUse> livingdaylight also, when inside the graphical mplayer, right click "open->URL"
[09:54] <jrib> eugman: did you change the default zoom level?
[09:54] <livingdaylight> NoUse: sure its simple, but it doesn't work : (
[09:54] <Nightwish1986> Warbo: I already tried to mute some channels, but no luck
[09:54] <Warbo> Nightwish1986: Hmm. Seems a little deep for me
[09:54] <eugman> Probably. Is there a shortcut for that I could have done by accident?
[09:54] <NoUse> livingdaylight write them tell to stop using Windows media :-)
[09:54] <VonGeist> I just finished installing ubuntu server and for some reason its not letting me log in. I've re-installed to make sure I put in the right uid and pwd but it keeps telling me login incorrect. Any ideas why it would be doing that? Is there something I'm missing?
[09:55] <Nightwish1986> Warbo: Thanx for the effort  :)
[09:55] <Tommy2k4> how come in konqueror left clicking a file/folder will open it instead of selecting it?
[09:55] <count> VonGeist: not logging in as root are you? :)
[09:55] <Warbo> Nightwish1986: I'm exhausted after all of that :)
[09:55] <count> Tommy2k4: because kde is wierd
[09:55] <jrib> eugman: not sure, on the top you should see two magnifying glasses with a percentage between them.  And the default zoom is in the Preferences
[09:55] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: one click is default for KDE
[09:55] <alagran> I would like to have Gnome and Kde on my computer.  I currently have ubuntu 6.06 installed.  Is there an easy to do that?
[09:55] <Dewbie> is dapper really any better than breezy?
[09:55] <josh__> what are workspaces for please
[09:55] <Drake_> when downloading large packages breezy seems to freeze up and then I don't have any connection to my gateway router, anyone have an idea where would I could find some troubleshooting starting points?
[09:55] <VonGeist> count: I'm just trying to log in as the uid I created during install
[09:55] <Warbo> Tommy2k4: You can change KDE's setup (it looks like Windows and behaves like Mac)
[09:55] <NoUse> Dewbie yes
[09:56] <jrib> eugman: ctrl+<scroll> seems to do it
[09:56] <count> VonGeist: check caps I guess?  I've not had any issues like that so far...
[09:56] <eugman> YAR, that be the problem.
[09:56] <kudzubane> Tommy2k4: b/c it is configured that way for convenience, why click twice when you can click once
[09:56] <Nightwish1986> Warbo: I can imagine that.. It's just such a stupid problem, I'm almost ashame to ask :P
[09:56] <Warbo> josh__: They let you run loads of apps without getting cluttered
[09:56] <Dewbie> hopefully they fixed my sound problem
[09:56] <KuLover> Anyone have trouble with sound on flash in a self installed version of Firefox?
[09:56] <Dewbie> that would be fuckin awesome
[09:56] <Tommy2k4> kudzubane: the problem is that theres no rename/delete on the right click menu so i have to right click it then use the edit menu
[09:56] <thoreauputic> Dewbie: language
[09:57] <Warbo> KuLover: Flash has sound problems anyway. Make sure no apps are using sound when you open Firefox
[09:57] <Dewbie> well it would be
[09:57] <VonGeist> count: already tried caps and such.
[09:57] <Dewbie> :P
[09:57] <Warbo> Tommy2k4: Click outside the icon and drag a box to select it
[09:57] <Tommy2k4> thanks
[09:57] <Tommy2k4> how can i get rename/delete on right click menu
[09:58] <livingdaylight> NoUse: i know, but its no use. there are more of 'em arrrgh...
[09:58] <Nightwish1986> Anybody with some knowledge of ALSA who can help me?
[09:58] <Dewbie> over half way done with the upgrade process
[09:58] <jrib> Tommy2k4: in nautilus?
[09:58] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: questions about KDE - best in #kubuntu
[09:58] <kudzubane> Tommy2k4: maybe you can take a look at the configs and see if it is something you can turn on
[09:58] <Tommy2k4> k
[09:58] <ProN00b> Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
[09:58] <ProN00b> target     prot opt source               destination

[09:58] <ProN00b> i have this in my iptables
[09:58] <Tommy2k4> its ok ill just get used to using the keyboard for it
[09:58] <VonGeist> count: now I was installing it with a software raid. could that have something to do with it?
[09:58] <Warbo> Dewbie: How many packages have to be installed? How many reboots does it need? I love Linux :)
[09:58] <bobulooo> is there a way I can throttle the download speed of apt?  Whenever I'm downloading new packages, pretty much no other internet connections can go out..
[09:59] <Tommy2k4> the main problem was not being able to select the icon
[09:59] <ProN00b> what is it, where does it come from, and what does it do, and more importantly, how do i remove it ?
[09:59] <Dewbie> a total of 1081 to download
[09:59] <sgleo87> does anyone know how to get the built in card reader in my compaq presario v2000 working
[09:59] <Dewbie> speaking of card readers
[09:59] <Warbo> Dewbie: That's 2000 Windows reboots (taking into account all of the BSODs)
[09:59] <Drake_> what could make a network connection crap out all of a studdent?
[09:59] <Dewbie> mine wasn't even detected at all
[10:00] <Drake_> lol *sudden
[10:00] <KuLover> Anyone have problems playing music and such wile a micraphone is in use?
[10:00] <Tommy2k4> why does "sudo mount //192.168.1.103/C /media/music -o username=PC" give no error yet not mount it
[10:00] <Dewbie> warbo good point
[10:01] <Dewbie> and after all 2000 reboots it would need another 500 to patched the patches I just downloaded
[10:01] <Tommy2k4> nvm i got it
[10:01] <Dewbie> -ed
[10:01] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: did mimms work for you? it show up in Applications/..../ as Gxine Movie player? otherwise i don't see an application called mimms
[10:01] <Warbo> Dewbie: lol
[10:01] <gnomefreak> !info mimms
[10:01] <ubotu> mimms: (MMS (mms://) streaming media download utility), section universe/net, is optional. Version: 0.0.9-2 (dapper), Packaged size: 12 kB, Installed size: 84 kB
[10:01] <NoUse> livingdaylight its a console app
[10:02] <Warbo> livingdaylight: Many applications are only accessible by default on the command line (you can put them in the menu with Alacarte)
[10:02] <livingdaylight> can or has anyone managed to get  mms://202.184.158.12:3003/worldcup2006  working?
[10:02] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: once installed it should open the link in it
[10:02] <gnomefreak> livingdaylight: in terminal type mms://202.184.158.12:3003/worldcup2006
[10:02] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: i've installed it but i can't find it
[10:02] <thoreauputic> livingdaylight: can't connect from here for some reason
[10:03] <Dewbie> normally logging in to IRC would be a cause for consern if your admin
[10:03] <livingdaylight> gnomefreak: doesn't do it here
[10:04] <Warbo> livingdaylight: The server doesn't respond for me (don't even get as far as codec issues)
[10:04] <thoreauputic> actually   mimms mms://202.184.158.12:3003/worldcup2006  - but it won't connect ( don't know why)
[10:05] <eugman> So Can someone explain to me the situation as to why there is no flash 8? If they never release it, can't anything be done?
[10:05] <|rt|> you can use mplayer --dumpstream
[10:05] <Shaezsche> what is the difference between reiserf and reiser4?
[10:05] <Tommy2k4> i think we have to wait till flash 9
[10:05] <Warbo> eugman: Flash 8.5 (Flash 9) is very close to finished, so they are skipping Flash 8 for Linux
[10:05] <thoreauputic> livingdaylight: I get "creating output file 'worldcup2006'" then it just hangs without any apparent network activity
[10:05] <livingdaylight> i get : host : >202.184.158.12<

[10:20] <ProN00b> croesus, firestarter
[10:20] <uXp> Warbo:  the ./configure gaved me no erros
[10:20] <Warbo> Equin: In a LiveCD "sudo grub-install /dev/hda"

[10:20] <croesus> ProN00b: thanks

[10:21] <gorski_> anybody, i have no sound in alsa player!

[10:22] <[Jonne] > i have a .bin file that i want to execute, but it keeps opening in gedit
[10:22] <v0lksman> megaman123: use synaptic and select the 686...or define the right package with apt-get....
[10:22] <mada> jenda: that could work, is it in the boot options of the live cd?
[10:22] <Warbo> uXp: You may need to install some packages ending in "-dev" to be able to build xvidcap, so look CAREFULLY through what configure said (it will never give errors, it gives information) and look for missing stuff

[10:23] <Equin> Warbo, i'm using ubuntu 5.10 .  When I choose open a shell in the install wizard, and type the grub-install command it says command not found
[10:23] <tr1gg3r> [Jonne] : u can easily run this run the cmd line: ./something.bin
[10:23] <Equin> I believe I have to mount my filesystem first or something
[10:24] <Warbo> Equin: In intall CD it is VERY complex (I've done it before, but I was following a guide I didn't understand) do it from a LiveCD (preferably an Ubuntu one)
[10:24] <v0lksman> megaman123: its definately easiest to select in synamptic but I believe 'sudo apt-get kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686' might work too...
[10:24] <jenda> mada: well, booting live is ;) I could try mounting the swap later, although I don't know how.
[10:24] <Dewbie> o I have about 75GB of freespace on this HDD, but Ubuntu doesn't see it, how do I make it see it and write/read it
[10:24] <Equin> oh
[10:24] <Equin> I didn't know there was a diffrence live/boot
[10:24] <Warbo> tr1gg3r: "sh something.bin" gets around permissions easily
[10:25] <blimpdude> Warbo, only if its a shell script
[10:25] <uXp> Warbo:  i do the ./configure and i get no errors
[10:25] <blimpdude> Warbo, .bin files arent usually scripts
[10:25] <Dewbie> matter of fact, windows doesn't see it either
[10:25] <Equin> where do I get a livecd?
[10:25] <Warbo> blimpdude: Most .bin files start with #!/bin/sh anyway
[10:25] <[Jonne] > thanks, that works
[10:25] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  Sounds like you need to partition it
[10:25] <jenda> mada: OK, when booting live, that screen with two rectangles appears as well, but only for a split second... strange... I guess the install tries to start X and fails miserably...
[10:25] <[Jonne] > but is there a way to fix it so it just works with doubleclicking?
[10:25] <Dewbie> an easy way to do that?
[10:26] <mada> jenda: interesting, does it give you a desktop?
[10:26] <megaman123> v0lksman: found it ..and installing
[10:26] <blimpdude> [Jonne] , probably if you right click and select "open with"
[10:26] <uXp> whats that site with pastebin?
[10:26] <tr1gg3r> Dewbie: fdisk, create a partition reboot then create a filesystem on it
[10:26] <Warbo> uXp: I was saying configure NEVER gives errors (unless you have a really screwed up system that cannot run programs)
[10:26] <megaman123> v0lksman: thanks

[10:28] <blimpdude> [Jonne] , try to choose "terminal" in the list
[10:28] <mada> jenda: ok, well hmm... i think if the live session will give you a X desktop then the installation should go smoothly, it might be slow but it should just install X and give it the current config the live session is running
[10:28] <thoreauputic> Equin: but make sure you get the 6.06 CD - not an earlier dapper beta etc
[10:28] <v0lksman> Dewbie: was it already partitioned (IE FAT or FAT32?) what was on this drive previously?

[10:33] <jtj> yeah i'll try tht
[10:33] <Dewbie> oh and the / partition
[10:33] <uXp> hawkes:  APPLICATIONS > GAMES
[10:33] <pedr1> Does anybody know if the Ubuntu CD's have started being sent ?
[10:33] <jtj> if i just broguht up the terminal how do i close it?
[10:33] <hawkes> yes but the games not there
[10:33] <megaman123> ok ... i actually wanted the desktop edition .. is there much difference ??
[10:33] <Klowner> jtj: ctrl+d, or exit, or hit X on the window

[10:34] <pedr1> ok, tanx
[10:34] <jtj> yeah cept i cant see the window
[10:34] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  sounds like the partition table may be a little messed up for some reason.
[10:34] <jenda> mada: in fact, it seems to be doing just that... or it's just the partitioner loading several minutes (understandable, I guess)
[10:34] <Warbo> uXp: I found this (seems current, from June 11th) and extracted the relevent bits http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15701
[10:34] <jtj> ok i tired ctrl shift q i recall thts correct for closing window
[10:34] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  How big is the drive in total?  What does it identify the 275G space as?  (Partition type)
[10:34] <mada> jenda: that could be, it might have just over paged and over cached and the ramdisk couldn't keep up (sorry, didn't realize you were an experienced user, i normally don't assume any linux experience because it seems to cause for more questions than its worth :) )

[10:34] <jtj> is there a way to rebbot or will i have to power down?
[10:35] <Dewbie> the space it says if free and unpartitioed
[10:35] <jtj> no as in my screen is completely black
[10:35] <AskHL> jtj, since you had pressed ctrl+alt+f5 you are in a terminal.
[10:35] <avis> i was wondering.  i am using a new monitor with my new linux tower.  it seems to want to start x at a higher than preferred refresh rate.  it also doesn't acknowledge that it can do higher refresh rates.  anyone lend a hand ?
[10:35] <Klowner> jtj: oh, you're in a vt
[10:35] <jenda> mada: of course, no problem. I might as well have been, for this matter ;) well, I'll ask again if it doesn't load in 30 minutes ;)
[10:35] <KuLover> uXp, the mic works, but no other sound will play when its in use.
[10:35] <AskHL> Login by writing your name, then your password, then sudo reboot (followed by password)
[10:35] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  Hrm....seen this in windows never in linux...the besst fix was to wipe the partitions on the drive and start over....not much help I know....
[10:35] <Klowner> jtj: try ctrl+alt+f7
[10:35] <jtj> ok hold on
[10:35] <mada> jenda: ok, happy hacking! :)
[10:35] <AskHL> or you could simply press ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to the desktop, thus enabling the key combinations there
[10:35] <chris12349> Im trying to install "gnome-devel" and I get this message   "libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (= 2.10.2-1ubuntu3) but 2.10.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed" anybody know a fix?
[10:36] <KuLover> uXp, For example.. when voiceing on Skype, I can play music on amaroK.
[10:36] <jtj> askhl ive brought up the termianl again
[10:36] <Dewbie> you've got to be kidding me
[10:36] <jtj> what happens if i command sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:36] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  You can always try fdisk or cfdisk if that even still exists in Linux...they are the back end to most partition apps
[10:36] <Warbo> KuLover: Did your mic "just work" because mine doesn't :(
[10:36] <AskHL> jtj, then it will start a program which lets you select video modes and such.
[10:36] <jtj> ah ok well i still wldnt see tht tho wld i
[10:36] <AskHL> jtj, but if you cannot see anything (not even a terminal) it won't help you much.
[10:37] <AskHL> jtj, so you have to get a working session running first (live cd, for instance)
[10:37] <KuLover> Warbo, I had to mess around with Kmix a bit to get it working.
[10:37] <jtj> so if i boot into the cd wld i be able to run commands for the installation from there?
[10:37] <uXp> Warbo:  i did the sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0.1.2.8 libpng.so.2 nothing happened
[10:37] <Warbo> KuLover: KMix... (shudder)
[10:37] <AskHL> jtj, or you could log in to your computer if you have an ssh server running (you probably don't)
[10:37] <jtj> ok so im going to close the terminal
[10:37] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  The only other thing I can offer is get a windows based disk utility (if you don't have one the best I can offer off hand is UBCD) and try to rebuild the partitions live (IE ala Partion Magix style)
[10:37] <funkja> Is there a tutorial somewhere that will teach me how to use Dual Monitors
[10:37] <jtj> no
[10:37] <tr1gg3r> chris12349: have ran apt-get update lately ?
[10:38] <Warbo> uXp: Good. ln doesn't give an output, it just makes a link somewhere. If it says something then it has gone wrong :)
[10:38] <jtj> is there an instruction to reboot or shall i have to power down
[10:38] <uXp> Warbo:  how do I acces xvid
[10:38] <AskHL> jtj, I already told you two ways to do it.
[10:38] <AskHL> But I suppose you could also just power down.
[10:38] <chris12349> tr1gg3r, yup, im trying to install all the build tools and gnome-devel looks like it has most of what i need... but the versions are off for gtk. I'm going to try and force it in synaptic
[10:38] <jtj> sorry thtere was too much traffic
[10:38] <Warbo> uXp: "xvidcap"
[10:38] <Klowner> jtj: sudo reboot
[10:38] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  Acronis makes a decent disk utility that will reset partitions live without destroying them.  of course you always have to assume you WILL loose the data when playing with partitions
[10:38] <uXp> did
[10:38] <uXp> nothing came up
[10:38] <basti> !xgl
[10:38] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems.  Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[10:39] <uXp> Warbo:  sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0.1.2.8 libpng.so.2
[10:39] <Dewbie> acronis messed up my whole box last time I used it
[10:39] <tr1gg3r> chris12349: sounds like a bug int he pkg u r trying to install
[10:39] <uXp> Warbo:  bash: xvidcap: command not found
[10:39] <Dewbie> the bootloader couldn't find anything
[10:39] <Warbo> uXp: You did INSTALL the package right? (double click on it)
[10:39] <uXp> basti:  you trying to install xgl?
[10:39] <mada> jtj: just a warning, if you reboot from the command line, the ubuntu shutdown plash screen might freak out a little, it has been known to do that ... it doesn't mean anything is broken
[10:39] <Dewbie> ntldr or anything
[10:39] <chris12349> tr1gg3r, hopefully not, its an to date version of dapper
[10:39] <uXp> ah oops
[10:40] <kallei> im trying to configure my /boot/grub/menu.lst to dualboot my windows xp partititon.  right now i have  root		(hd1,0)   (xp is on my second sata drive, /dev/sdb1)  . when i tried to boot it said something about  "Partition type 0xe7" ....  and could not boot.  Am i doing something wrong here?
[10:40] <v0lksman> Dewbie:  yeah their boot cds suck....I always used PE or UBCD to boot then used their software to restore or manage partitions
[10:40] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:40] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:40] <Warbo> When I press my power button in Dapper it brings up the logout dialog, is there anyway to tell it to initialise shutdown? (Whenever X crashes I have to do a hard reset)
[10:40] <uXp> Warbo:  Setting up xvidcap... (taking while)
[10:40] <basti> uXp, actually I have installed it, but I have some things that confuses me when I run glxinfo :) why?
[10:41] <mindamp> if i removed an /etc/ config directory... how would i go about rebuilding this after i apt-get remove the package?
[10:41] <Dewbie> warbo type sudo reboot
[10:41] <uXp> basti:  i was just seeing if you were trying to install it
[10:41] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:41] <v0lksman> there is also a /fixmbr flag you can set in a windows recovery console but I can't for the life of me right now remember if that would help here or not
[10:41] <uXp> lol, im a noob, it already installed it
[10:41] <mindamp> anyone?
[10:41] <mindamp> suggestions?
[10:41] <Warbo> Dewbie: But this is when X crashes and the keyboard doesn't respond (so I can't get into a console or press ctrl-alt-fX)
[10:41] <basti> uXp, did you get it to work?
[10:42] <uXp> basti:  yea been using it for days now, along with my dual monitor
[10:42] <Dewbie> warbo... ohhhh
[10:42] <Dewbie> pull the plug
[10:42] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:42] <uXp> w00t w00t
[10:42] <mindamp> am i invisible?
[10:42] <Warbo> Dewbie: Power button is the only responsive thing, and it used to be OK in Breezy
[10:42] <basti> uXp, awesome. do you own an ati card?
[10:42] <mindamp> ehlo?
[10:42] <uXp> nvidia, much easier
[10:42] <joebush> After booting from the cd, Ubuntu doesn't seem to be able to use my usb mouse.
[10:42] <AskHL> mindamp, I can't see you from here
[10:42] <ijbgreen> hi everybody
 Hello ijbgreen!
[10:42] <Warbo> uXp: You have xvidcap working?
[10:42] <v0lksman> mindamp:  simmer now....what do you mean you removed /etc and now want to rebuild it?
[10:42] <uXp> basti:  no i own a nvidia
[10:43] <ijbgreen> hi
[10:43] <mindamp> volksman... i actually just removed /etc/awstats
[10:43] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:43] <jrattner> mindamp, yes u are
[10:43] <uXp> war, yea now i have to find a place to put it because it linkin to my desktop and i hate a cluttery desktop
[10:43] <ijbgreen> i'm new here
[10:43] <mindamp> but lets say i did it for postfix as well
[10:43] <basti> uXp, I got an ati... *sigh* well its working now, although a bit slow at times.. never again ati for me
[10:43] <uXp> basti:  yea everyone who owns an ati is saying thta =\
[10:43] <AskHL> hawkes, thank you very much! I heard it the first time.
[10:43] <mindamp> how would i go about rebuilding the etc confs after removing the package? becuase a regular apt-get install packagename WILL NOT create new etc files
[10:43] <joebush> Without mouse, installation is a bit difficult since this is obviously graphical so that anyone could do it  hehe
[10:44] <Dewbie> and the send, third, fourth, fifth...
[10:44] <Warbo> uXp: I have Nautilus turned off for drawing my desktop and use chbg for background and gdesklets for icons (wow, python is so slow!)
[10:44] <mindamp> hrm?
[10:44] <eugman> Hey, I'm trying to make a gpg key with gpa but it says my passphrase is insecure. Anyone know of a site deatiling the requirements of a secure passphrase?
[10:44] <v0lksman> mindamp: it doesn't?
[10:44] <mindamp> nope
[10:44] <mindamp> !
[10:44] <basti> uXp, well, its their own loss if they dont apply to the supply/demanh chain. more and more people demand better linuxdrivers.. so they better start applying
[10:44] <ubotu> mindamp: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:44] <uXp> Warbo:  i like my desktop the way it is =] 
[10:44] <mindamp> dpkg?
[10:44] <darkgamer20> is there a guide to optimize ubuntu?
[10:44] <uXp> Warbo:  want to see a screenshot?
[10:44] <ikken> what is the best way to change the permissions of an ftp folder recursively?
[10:44] <MarcN> darkgamer20: how do you want to optimize it?
[10:44] <Warbo> darkgamer20: Install with the "server" option :)
[10:44] <ijbgreen> anybody knows how can i activate hardware acceleration for my old nvidia Riva TNT2 in Dapper?
[10:44] <uXp> basti:  yea i know
[10:44] <MarcN> Warbo: ;-)
[10:45] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:45] <joebush> Anyone know how to get my usb mouse working with the Ubuntu install?
[10:45] <v0lksman> mindamp: I thought apt-get would...and I assume the same of dpkg....it will only create examples though...not rebuild your previous conf
[10:45] <darkgamer20> MarcN: like i wanna make it faster
[10:45] <jenda> mada: hmm... do you have any idea how to help Ubuntu _not_ slow down so bad? It seems it won't be able to even load the partitioner today...
[10:45] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:45] <darkgamer20> Warbo: lol
[10:45] <LjL> Warbo: that would mainly just weed out "less-needed" packages, correct?
[10:45] <jenda> mada: such as mounting the swap... I suppose that could help a bit.
[10:45] <thoreauputic> hawk: stop repeating
[10:45] <mindamp> volklsman... well thats not really true at all, but whatever
[10:45] <LjL> !spam
[10:45] <ubotu> Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages, or the pork luncheon meat whose name is the acronym of Shoulder of Pork and hAM
[10:45] <blimpdude> jenda, are you on live CD?
[10:45] <mindamp> this channel blows
[10:45] <Warbo> uXp: Well I wouldn't be able to match it since a) My homemade them is a little dodgy at the moment and b) I accidentally deleted my launcher desklet and my new one isn;'t configured yet :)
[10:45] <thoreauputic> hawkes: if you repeat like that you will be out of here
[10:45] <Dewbie> lol
[10:45] <mada> jenda: lemme look it up real quick, i forget the command
[10:45] <v0lksman> mindamp:  no?  what do you mean?
[10:46] <darkgamer20> MarcN: you know any guides?
[10:46] <jenda> blimpdude: trying to install from that. 240 MB ram.
[10:46] <blimpdude> jenda, is UDMA enabled on your CD device?
[10:46] <hawkes> i went to synaptic package manager then networking universe and installed aircrack, but cant run it help!
[10:46] <hawkes> help me
[10:46] <LjL> !ops
[10:46] <jenda> blimpdude: it slows down gradually... the first two minutes are bareable.
[10:46] <LjL> hawkes: go away
[10:46] <ubotu> Help! lilo, hedgemage, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee or gnomefreak!
[10:46] <Tommy2k4> how come some how the k-menu button is between the system menu and konqueror buttons
[10:46] <MarcN> darkgamer20: what is too slow for you?  browsing? web serving? compiling?  Basically shut off or remove any unused services, say mysql, postgres, exim, imap, that you may have running.
[10:46] <ijbgreen> hello
[10:46] <Tommy2k4> there doesnt seem to be a way to drag to move it
[10:46] <gnomefreak> ?
[10:46] <uXp> Warbo:  gotcha
[10:46] <rukuarti1> Hey, I'm looking to capture video from a DVD to use in a slideshow, not the entire video--just a few seconds. Can anyone reccommend a piece of software?
[10:46] <joebush> Would love to give Ubuntu a shot, but without usb mouse active during install it is quite difficult.. :(
[10:46] <Tommy2k4> nvm got it
[10:46] <Tommy2k4> but more importantly
[10:46] <uXp> Warbo:  how do you use xvidcap
[10:46] <thoreauputic> heh
[10:47] <Tommy2k4> i was doing nothing and then all of a sudden my monitor said out of range or whatever
[10:47] <joebush> Someone must know about the problem
[10:47] <uXp> Warbo:  im trying to make a quick movie for a buddy of mine of my whole desktop
[10:47] <Seveas> eh-oh
[10:47] <Tommy2k4> and i had to reoot it
[10:47] <mada> jenda: i am pretty sure you just mount the swap partition and type "sudo swapon"
[10:47] <Seveas> we're at 911 users
[10:47] <Seveas> someone call 911!
[10:47] <jenda> 911
[10:47] <Dewbie> haha
[10:47] <ijbgreen> hi anybody can help me?
[10:47] <blimpdude> jenda, try sudo hdparm -i /dev/hdb or hdc and see if udma is enabled
[10:47] <MarcN> darkgamer20: and add more memory ;-)
[10:47] <blimpdude> Seveas, 912 is the real numeber
[10:48] <LjL> Seveas: !ops is just my shortcut for kickban. who said ones needs to be op? ;)
[10:48] <Seveas> LjL, 
[10:48] <Bassetts> what could be used to make a ftp server for my xp maching to access?
[10:48] <jenda> blimpdude: gimme a while, I'll have to reboot the LiveCD. I can't do it at this stage of slow-down :(
[10:48] <Tommy2k4> how do i stop the kde wallet manager from opening on boot
[10:48] <blimpdude> jenda, lol.. try from ctrl-alt-f1?
[10:49] <Bassetts> Tommy2k4: #kubuntu
[10:49] <Tommy2k4> k
[10:49] <jenda> blimpdude: I can't even move the mouse. C-A-F1 doesn't do anything (or not fast enough).
[10:49] <blimpdude> jenda, ok
[10:50] <ijbgreen> hi anybody knows how can in activate hardware acceleration for my nvidia riva tnt2 in 6.06
[10:50] <Terminus> hello. alt+f2 doesn't give me a run dialog. i'm using the dvorak keyboard layout. is that an issue?
[10:50] <Mastastealth> !nvidia
[10:50] <ubotu> it has been said that nvidia is Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[10:50] <geeksauce> i've got an upgrade question: should i keep or replace the configuaration file?
[10:51] <jenda> mada, blimpdude, could booting the LiveCD in safe graphics mode help?
[10:51] <jtj> the damned live cd won't load
[10:51] <Warbo> uXp: Sorry, I was looking through a website. Use "man xvidcap" or "xvidcap --help" to see it's options
[10:51] <Seveas> geeksauce, depends on the file, which one is it asking about?
[10:51] <blimpdude> jenda, it might - can always try that
[10:51] <rukuarti1> Hey, I'm looking to capture video from a DVD to use in a slideshow, not the entire video--just a few seconds. Can anyone reccommend a piece of software?
[10:51] <ijbgreen> yes i installed di nvidia-glx-legacy but i didn't work
[10:51] <jenda> I am now.
[10:51] <jtj> its freezing at uncompressing linux...ok, booting the kernel
[10:51] <mada> jenda: actually, it might because i blieve it runs vesa, which is a very fast X server for older laptops
[10:51] <blimpdude> jenda, however sounds to me like a dma issue
[10:51] <gnomefreak> whats the red square with an x in it on lower right corner of a file mean?
[10:51] <joebush> Is there a way to force Ubunto to find usb mouse so I can actually install Ubuntu? It doesn't seem to do it on its own.
[10:51] <Seveas> gnomefreak, that you can't access it
[10:51] <cyphase> http://adequacy.org/public/stories/2001.12.2.42056.2147.html
[10:51] <Warbo> rukuarti1: Maybe set up a gstreamer pipeline? (If you've never done it before, son't try!)
[10:52] <jenda> blimpdude: will be the first thing I'll try.
[10:52] <rukuarti1> Thanks Warbo
[10:52] <gnomefreak> Seveas: no permissions though?
[10:52] <mada> brb
[10:52] <gnomefreak> not*
[10:52] <Agent_bob> joebush can't install without mouse ?
[10:52] <BioVorE> gnomefreak: If I had to guess..  A broken symlink
[10:52] <flossgeek> joebush:I use a wireless usb mouse and mine is fine..
[10:52] <geeksauce> Seveas,  /etc/login.defs
[10:52] <Seveas> gnomefreak, 'can't access' == 'no permissions'
[10:52] <ijbgreen> at this day i have my X server working
[10:52] <nahoj> anyone here know any working howto for xgl/compiz? i have nvidia geforce MX 400
[10:52] <Seveas> geeksauce, you will want to let it *replace* that one
[10:52] <ijbgreen> but the Quake 3 arena
[10:52] <joebush> Agent_bob: Not sure, can I? And why in the world would a livecd not detect something as simple as usb mouse anyway?  hehe
[10:52] <jrib> gnomefreak: I think it's the lack of read permission
[10:52] <ijbgreen> doesn't works good
[10:53] <eugman> Nahoj, I wouldn't be surprised if a search in the forums turns one up.
[10:53] <flossgeek> joebush: what make is your mouse?
[10:53] <gnomefreak> Seveas: its read write exe for everyone thats what is weird to me
[10:53] <] GoldenDragon> hmm, how do I install wine? i used the synaptic manager but I am not sure what to do now
[10:53] <joebush> flossgeek: Logitech
[10:53] <nahoj> eugman, i have tried that twice, had lots of troubles...
[10:53] <Seveas> gnomefreak, that's a symlink I guess, check the permissions of the file it points to
[10:53] <BioVorE> ijbgreen: what graphics card you have?  (Quake3/UT2k4/Quake4/Doom3 all work well here on nvidia)
[10:53] <flossgeek> joebush: I am using a logitech too
[10:53] <flossgeek> hmmmm
[10:53] <ijbgreen> i have a RIVA TNT 2
[10:53] <joebush> flossgeek: MX1000 here
[10:53] <geeksauce> Seveas, why?  (just curious...trying to understand linux...i'm still somewhat of a n00b when it comes to this OS)
[10:53] <MarcN> I've created a number of "Network Places" over the last few months.  How do I edit them? -- some addresses have changed.  Not via properties tab.  gconf-editor?!
[10:54] <Agent_bob> joebush why the live didn't detect it,  idk ?    but yes you should be able to install    use the tab  and  space keys.
[10:54] <xDCDx> hello
[10:54] <mag_> My ATI Radeon X850XT (PCIE) hangs when I switch to console from X with the proprietary drivers (fglrx). Does anyone know a solution to this? I have a LCD display thru DVI
[10:54] <xDCDx> is there an easy way I can print a binary file in base2 form (like '11101010011...') ?
[10:54] <BioVorE> joebush: with the MX1000 you might want to look at useing evdev for input.. then all the buttons work and are ussable in X
[10:54] <Ademan> mag_: laptop?
[10:54] <Seveas> geeksauce, it should never have asked about it. I'm 100% sure you never touched the file so the question is unnecessary
[10:54] <Seveas> it's a known bug that it asks, and keeping the fie will result in login and/or sudo errors
[10:54] <joebush> Agent_bob: Tab didn't seem to get me to the desktop so I could run install
[10:54] <jenda> blimpdude: on the live cd, prolly without sudo, right?
[10:54] <flossgeek> joebush: do you have anothe rmouse you could use temporaraly
[10:54] <blimpdude> jenda, for the -i ya
[10:54] <] GoldenDragon> hmm, how do I install wine? i used the synaptic manager but I am not sure what to do now, I'm trying to install shockwave
[10:54] <gnomefreak> broken link fixing it now
[10:54] <gnomefreak> ty guys
[10:54] <mag_> Ademan: no, stationary computer with nforce motherboard and asus gfx card
[10:55] <joebush> flossgeek: nope

[10:55] <Seveas> Tommy2k4, and ubuntuguide.org should be avoided
[10:55] <Ademan> usually that sort of problem can be fixed by: boot with the kernel option vga=791  (i think thats the number, but lemme check real fast)  but thats for laptops iirc, but it might be lcd displays in general
[10:55] <joebush> flossgeek: can't seem to get to desktop to run install
[10:55] <Seveas> Tommy2k4, kde doesn't have such a menu
[10:55] <blimpdude> jenda, check to see which mode has a * next to it
[10:55] <Tommy2k4> oh
[10:55] <flossgeek> joebush: ah no wonde rmouse aint working
[10:56] <rpt> doh how can ubuntu not install gcc by default :p
[10:56] <salah> hm .. is there any application for convertion .dv files to mpg/avi?
[10:56] <flossgeek> joebush: are you getting the login screen GDM?
[10:56] <jenda> blimpdude: udma2
[10:56] <Tommy2k4> what i need is a way to mount a networked ntfs drive using the pc name instead of the ip. any ideas how i could do this?
[10:56] <BioVorE> joebush: you have to install evdev kernelmodule and then manualy configure X.. its a bastard to get right.
[10:56] <mag_> Ademan: hmm do you need vga16fb for that?
[10:56] <blimpdude> jenda, o i c. then dma isnt the problem
[10:56] <geeksauce> Seveas, oh, ok.  so it only asks about files i've modified?
[10:56] <jenda> blimpdude: plan 2 - mounting swap... can you help?
[10:56] <blimpdude> jenda, did you try running top to see whats actually using CPU/RAM?
[10:57] <Seveas> geeksauce, in theory, sometimes it asks about things you did not modify and you should simply let it replace them
[10:57] <ijbgreen> BioVorE: you can help me
[10:57] <jenda> blimpdude: ATM, there's nothing interesting there...
[10:57] <montbazin> Hi everybody
[10:57] <montbazin> I'm with kubuntu on a machine with an ADM Duron processor at 950 Mhz.
[10:57] <montbazin> The trouble I encounter is that all applications are very slow while opening, Mainly Openoffice and Skype are causing trouble.
[10:57] <montbazin> I have 256 Mo ram
[10:57] <montbazin> Is there a way to make this runnin faster
[10:57] <geeksauce> Seveas, what is that config file for, anyway?
[10:57] <Seveas> geeksauce, several login/su settings
[10:57] <Bassetts> what could be used to make a ftp server for my xp machine to access?
[10:57] <simian__> how can i kill gnomepilotd from the command line
[10:57] <AskHL> montbazin, you'll want to use Xubuntu instead of regular Ubuntu. That takes less RAM
[10:58] <blimpdude> jenda, try sudo mount -t swap /dev/hdax
[10:58] <AskHL> montbazin, errr, instead of Kubuntu I mean
[10:58] <nahoj> is it always safe to change the busID in xorg.conf to "PCI:1:0:0"? when I run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and do auto-detect it sets the busID to "PCI:1:0:3" (i think)
[10:58] <Seveas> montbazin, OO.o is dog-slow, not much you can do about that...
[10:58] <blimpdude> jenda, thats about as much as I know about swap mounting
[10:58] <Ademan> mag_: is that part of fbdev? i don't think so, I think you're fine as is, I was able to use that option on a default ubuntu install
[10:58] <AskHL> montbazin, also it's most likely RAM that's your problem and not the processor
[10:58] <Seveas> Bassetts, bsftpd
[10:58] <Tommy2k4> how can i mount a networked windows drive using the pc name instead of the ip
[10:58] <jenda> OK
[10:58] <geeksauce> Seveas, i changed some login settings via the gui and enabled root access, so i may have modified that file.
[10:58] <Bassetts> thanks Seveas
[10:59] <blimpdude> jenda, run sudo fdisk -l |grep -i swap to find your swap partition
[10:59] <flossgeek> joebush: I would add a post to the forum...
[10:59] <mag_> Ademan: I'll try it. Did your box hang on reboot/shutdown and switching to vt console?
[10:59] <Seveas> geeksauce, those are different settings
[10:59] <Ademan> hold on i'll try switching lol
[10:59] <thoreauputic> montbazin: you can set OOo to quickstart under tools - options but that uses RAM
[10:59] <Ademan> oh before? my screen would blank on shutdown (rather than going into the console)
[10:59] <montbazin> AskHL: do you 512 MO ram will improove the whole thing drastically ?
[10:59] <Ademan> and then i don't know whether it would hang or not
[10:59] <thoreauputic> montbazin: skype is always dog slow btw
[10:59] <arnau1> hello
[10:59] <Ademan> but it wouldnt power down
[11:00] <mag_> Ademan: ok
[11:00] <we2by> !codecs
[11:00] <ubotu> Binary only codecs (such as w32codecs) can be downloaded from plf or cipherfunk, see !easysource for details on these repositories. Also refer to !restricted
[11:00] <Bassetts> Seveas, that isnt in the repos
[11:00] <arnau1> could anyone help me with Samba??
[11:00] <Seveas> !info vsftpd dapper
[11:00] <Ademan> mag_: well i can still switch to console
[11:00] <ubotu> vsftpd: (The Very Secure FTP Daemon), section net, is extra. Version: 2.0.4-0ubuntu4 (dapper), Packaged size: 107 kB, Installed size: 404 kB
[11:00] <Seveas> Bassetts, according to ubotu it is 
[11:00] <montbazin> thoreauputic: what is OOo ?
[11:00] <AskHL> montbazin, I believe you can simply do sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop then you'll just have to select the Xfce window manager from the login screen. 512 MB is fine for my laptop (but it also has a much faster processor... I just don't feel any bad caching going on)
[11:00] <mag_> Ademan: Ok, I'll try that then!
[11:00] <jtj> the live cd keeps hanging on booting the kernel
[11:00] <geeksauce> crap, i thought it was done dowloading the update...it was just starting
[11:00] <Ademan> mag_: good luck
[11:00] <Bassetts> [21:58]  <Seveas> Bassetts, bsftpd << typo =P
[11:00] <thoreauputic> montbazin: Open Office.org
[11:01] <arnau1> ???
[11:01] <Seveas> Bassetts, heh, sorry 
[11:01] <megaman123> is there a download accelerator for breezy ??
[11:01] <mitcheloc> does anyone know the default password for the vmware appliance for ubuntu? vmware is not it
[11:01] <||cw> does the bootup process fsck non-root volumes when it tried to mount them?  I have a couple jfs formated lvm volumes that would not mount till after I fsck'd them
[11:01] <Bassetts> np Seveas
[11:01] <Bassetts> ty
[11:01] <arnau1> ????
[11:01] <AskHL> montbazin, I won't GUARANTEE anything but I find it very likely that the low amount of RAM causes constant swapping (it did on my old computer which now usese xubuntu)
[11:01] <arnau1> can anyone help me for samba??
[11:01] <jenda> blimpdude: Argh... the swap mount command doesn't help.
[11:02] <montbazin> ok OOo thanks
[11:02] <arnau1> I can't get it work...
[11:02] <mattm591> hi, i managed to break X trying to install xgl. so now i just wanna go back to the regular xserver if anyone can tell me. i'm getting this error everytime i load ubunt... "GMD: xserver not found: /usr/bin/xgl/ :0 :0 --fullscreen -ac -accel glx:pb Error: command could not be exectured. Please install the X serer or correct GDM config and restrt GDM"
[11:02] <AskHL> montbazin, try installing xubuntu before you invest in anything expensive
[11:02] <nny> anyone here know how to recover a raid 0 array ?
[11:02] <jenda> blimpdude: err... work.
[11:02] <blimpdude> jenda, try ading a '-o sw' option to it
[11:02] <jenda> OK
[11:02] <||cw> nny: from a failed disk?  not possible, by design
[11:02] <montbazin> AskHLI have anoter machine with pentium III and 256Mo and that works much better
[11:02] <geeksauce> does the ubuntu server edition have a gui?
[11:02] <megaman123> is "aget" the right thing ??
[11:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: nope
[11:03] <arnau1> How do we get help here lol??
[11:03] <Seveas> nny, man mdadm should help (wish I could be more useful, but I also always need the manpage :))
[11:03] <||cw> geeksauce: if you install one
[11:03] <jenda> blimpdude: nope
[11:03] <Kyral_FreeBSD> arnau1: come around when people are paying attention? :P
[11:03] <pollo> hi all

[11:04] <AskHL> montbazin, hmmm, well, then it might not _only_ be the RAM. But good luck with finding a solution
[11:04] <arnau1> Well why not this night then?
[11:04] <geeksauce> i know, it's just easter to set them up if they have one.
[11:04] <mattm591> can anyone help me with my xserver problem?

[11:05] <jenda> blimpdude: nah, just lists the help file. But the installer seems to work in the safe graphics mode. I guess it's just RAM...
[11:05] <Kyral_FreeBSD> add in bash aliases and I fly :D

[11:05] <joebus1> flossgeek: like I said, I don't mean I am not in X. I mean I can't seem to get to the desktop to be able to start install from the icon there
[11:05] <arnau1> pleaseeee.......
[11:06] <Seveas> Kyral_FreeBSD, not *yet*, mdz wants it in edgy
[11:06] <blimpdude> jenda, where hda4 is your swap partition

[11:06] <nanotube> hey everyone
[11:06] <jenda> blimpdude: OK, it is, btw :)

[11:06] <blimpdude> jenda, lol
[11:06] <arnau1> I have ubuntu dapper!!! I need some help!!
[11:06] <Seveas> arnau1, stop yelling

[11:06] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you. :)
[11:06] <montbazin> AskHL : sorry, a stupid question, is ther a fast way to enter a niknane when writing on x-chat, I always use copy/paste
[11:06] <Seveas> montbazin, use <tab> to complete nicknames
[11:06] <arnau1> I need some help with samba
[11:06] <Seveas> arnau1, ask specific questions
[11:06] <nanotube> i am writing some articles (latex/plain tex), and wanted to find a good version control software for it. i know there is subversion, but i am wondering if there is something more "desktop-oriented" that is good for text documents.
[11:07] <arnau1> I can't share my folders
[11:07] <Kyral_FreeBSD> arnau1: whats wrong with it
[11:07] <jenda> blimpdude: add quotes to the echo?
[11:07] <geeksauce> Kyral_FreeBSD, i don't know very much about linux, so installing a dedicated ftp server or something like that would be quite difficult without knowing my way around the whole setup
[11:07] <ompaul> !samba
[11:07] <ubotu> well, samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[11:07] <blimpdude> jenda, no
[11:07] <rpt> Seveas: thanks really helpful, still cant understand why this shouldnt be installed by default :o)
[11:07] <jenda> ok
[11:07] <AskHL> montbazin, I use irssi and there <tab> will complete. Seems it should work in X-chat too

[11:08] <Seveas> Bassetts, look in /usr/share/doc/vsftpd
[11:08] <Bassetts> thanks

[11:08] <Seveas> montbazin, type it as you leave, like: /quit Bye everyone!
[11:08] <mark105> i just updated from breezy to dapper, i see dapper has a new kernel, i have a smp server box so does the dapper kernel support smp?
[11:08] <nanotube> i am writing some articles (latex/plain tex), and wanted to find a good version control software for it. i know there is subversion, but i am wondering if there is something more "desktop-oriented" that is good for text documents. any recommendations?
[11:08] <Seveas> nanotube, bzr
[11:08] <mattm591> ok, well basically when i load i get this error GMD: xserver not found: /usr/bin/xgl/ :0 :0 --fullscreen -ac -accel glxb
[11:08] <mattm591> Error: command could not be exectured.
[11:08] <mattm591> Please install the X serer or correct GDM config and restrt GDM
[11:08] <Seveas> bzr is the best
[11:08] <geeksauce> will ubuntu run on those new intel-based macs that are capable of booting windows?

[11:09] <montbazin> Seveas, Thanks for having answered my silly questions, but it helps

[11:09] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: IntelMacs == Core Duo == Normal x86 :D
[11:09] <nanotube> Seveas, thanks for the response :) i will search for bzr and see what it's all about, and get back

[11:10] <delire> geeksauce: apparently it kind of runs. there are far better laptops (and better laptops to run Ubuntu on) in my opinion..
[11:10] <ompaul> mattm591, it is the xgl support channel
[11:10] <blimpdude> jenda, you can also edit /etc/fstab and just put that line in the end
[11:10] <Seveas> mattm591, restore your gdm config to the default

[11:10] <mattm591> sevease, how?

[11:11] <ompaul> mattm591, sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[11:11] <Seveas> mattm591, same way as you put xgl in it, #ubuntu-xgl for more support
[11:11] <montbazin> does anyone can tell me what layouting software exists for ubuntu (like InDesign or XPress)
[11:11] <jenda> got it
[11:11] <geeksauce> do you know if it can dual-boot ubuntu and mac osx?  or even tri-boot those and windows xp?

[11:11] <Tommy2k4> how can i auto mount a networked windows drive without using ip (eg using pc name)
[11:11] <blimpdude> jenda, did u run mount?

[11:12] <Kyral_FreeBSD> geeksauce: In theory there is no reason why not

[11:13] <Sivik> how do i go about closing an image when i don't have the open to close it via file or the x

[11:13] <Kyral_FreeBSD> |rt|: if the /home is on a seperate partition

[11:13] <Seveas> |rt|, sure, just tell the installer to not touch that partition and mount it under /home

[11:16] <Kyral_FreeBSD> gnomefreak: you sure, it does for me
[11:17] <blimpdude> jenda, ya the installation on my older computer took about 1 hr as opposed to 20 minutes on my laptop... i think this is normal ;)
[11:17] <Kyral_FreeBSD> gnomefreak: maybe rm -f?
[11:17] <boricua> will the iriver clix  work on ubuntu?  hoping to get this for fathers day
[11:17] <gnomefreak> Kyral_FreeBSD: yes im sure i just tried it
[11:17] <Supremacy> ahhh thank you, but does it have a command somekind?
[11:17] <Seveas> Supremacy, removing libgtk2.0 should get you started

[11:23] <geeksauce> Kyral_FreeBSD, you'd reccommend that over ubuntu?
[11:23] <ompaul> loanwolf, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[11:23] <joebush> About my USB mouse problem when trying to install: Apparently Ubuntu doesn't detect the back USB ports in my Shuttle. Moved mouse to front port for install.

[11:23] <joebush> Installing as we speak :)
[11:23] <ubuntu> I really need some help! My ubuntu won't boot because of a line in my fstab. So i have booted a breezy live cd and i need to chroot to my linux partition. But when typing "mount /dev/hda6 /mnt/work" it just says "wrong fstype, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda6" what is wrong?
[11:23] <Kyral_FreeBSD> DamnSmallLinux is amazing as far as what they have done
[11:23] <ompaul> loanwolf, did you upgrade from something to get there?

[11:24] <rigonatti> hi there !!
[11:24] <geeksauce> it's old, but it can run windows server 2k3 just fine, the only sucky thing is the 1 mb onboard video chip
[11:24] <Kyral_FreeBSD> !iso
[11:24] <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

[11:24] <] GoldenDragon> hmm, how do I install shockwave plugin on firefox?
[11:24] <interferon> i've just upgraded to dapper, but now gdm complains about not being able to start my session when i log in.  if i run "gnome-session" in the xterm it gives me, though, all is well.
[11:24] <Kyral_FreeBSD> !shockwave
[11:24] <ubotu> Unfortunately there is no shockwave available for Linux (unless you use wine).  Please lobby Macromedia!
[11:24] <geeksauce> Kyral_FreeBSD, it's old, but it can run windows server 2k3 just fine, the only sucky thing is the 1 mb onboard video chip
[11:24] <Jelte41> hiya guys.. I just used the update manager to upgrade from breezy to LTS, which seemed to work ok. However one package (mythtv) didn't upgrade successfully... so after installing all the new packages it stopped.  Does this mean it did not go through it's "cleaning up" phase where it removes redundant packages?  if so, can i now somehow force that?
[11:24] <rigonatti> Does anyone knows why Gaim beta 2.0.0 fc3 closes everytime withou warning ? And why i cant install de stable version ?
[11:25] <ompaul> loanwolf, do this, lab_release -d and give the reply please
[11:25] <Kyral_FreeBSD> rigonatti: because tis BETA :P

[11:27] <fissy> we2by: install smbfs
[11:27] <loanwolf> ompaul: says command not found
[11:27] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Supremacy: depends on whatcha running
[11:27] <rigonatti> Kyral_freeBSD strange ...coz Kopete have troubles with MSN file transfers...and now....Gaim..just open for a few minutes then close without warning...
[11:27] <ompaul> loanwolf, correction >>  lsb_release -d  << sorry
[11:28] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Supremacy: base stripped down server install only pulled 30 MB
[11:28] <crimsun_> Supremacy: meaning "why is my free memory indicator so low?" It's because Linux caches aggressively.
[11:28] <Supremacy> yeah i know that but in general, i am now running XFCE, amaroK and GAIM and it takes away 850mb!!!
[11:28] <ompaul> Supremacy, Linux allots as much ram as it can at any one time, caching to make faster
[11:28] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Supremacy: for a real output run "free" and notice the middle line
[11:28] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Supremacy: the "+/- cache/buffer" line
[11:28] <loanwolf> ompaul: 6.06
[11:28] <Supremacy> ok

[11:31] <byron> ok
[11:31] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Tommy2k4: sounds like a hardware problem :P
[11:31] <ompaul> loanwolf, do uname -a and I think you will find that you have a 2.6 kernel running
[11:31] <fissy> /dev/hdc1    /your/mountpoint    vfat   defaults    0 0
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> haha
[11:31] <megaman123> how do you install a theme ??
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> yeah my mouse is broke and it keeps moving and clicking for no reason
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> and sometimes it stops moving so i have to unplug it and put it back in
[11:31] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, get a new mouse
[11:31] <BockBilbo> mm i meant F2 sorry
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> but i bent the pins
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> and this window has focus
[11:31] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I had that happen...but because someone put my optical in his pocket...
[11:31] <Tommy2k4> so thought id talk in here
[11:32] <fissy> megaman123: either extract the archive into /home/user/.themes or drag the archive onto the theme chooser in system preferences
[11:32] <Dewbie> how do I clean up old and obsolete kernels from my system and from grub
[11:32] <loanwolf> ompaul: uname -r   ....2.6.15-23-386
[11:32] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Dewbie: apt-get remove <kernel pack>
[11:32] <ompaul> Tommy2k4, this is not a chat channel, it is a ubuntu support channel, I think you will find that is a hardware issue
[11:32] <jessid> hello, ladies and gentlemen...how is everything?
[11:32] <megaman123> fissy: will try now ..thanks
[11:32] <fissy> dewbie, just remove them in synaptic, but make sure the latest one is still there

[11:34] <Kyral_FreeBSD> fissy: Use Apt-Pinning
[11:35] <jessid> Kyral_FreeBSD is it cross plataform???
[11:35] <Kyral_FreeBSD> holy heck, Synaptic actually came up with something original
[11:35] <selinium> Seveas: I thought it was bundled with mplayer? I cant find it in the repos..... :)

[11:41] <Kyral_FreeBSD> apokryphos: if you have used Gentoo, Ports is what Portage wanted to be :P
[11:41] <Kassah> Seveas: will that allow me to install a i386 deb?
[11:41] <ikken> fissy: especially Thunderbird and Flock - but GAIM chat windows load pretty fast - strangely, gedit loads slowly
[11:41] <Seveas> Kassah, no
[11:41] <jdmpike> hello everyone does anyone in here use f-spot and xgl together?
[11:41] <ompaul> loanwolf, you should use "xubuntu" for that - >> sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop << it will be a lot faster
[11:41] <ikken> fissy: I think the problem is all the business of GNOME - running everything in Fluxbox certainly shows a speed difference
[11:41] <Seveas> jdmpike, #ubuntu-xgl for xgl
[11:42] <jdmpike> Seveas, it is very quiet in there though
[11:42] <Seveas> jdmpike, then be patient 
[11:42] <darius_> Kyral> uhem .. I think Portage is what Ports wanted to be
[11:42] <loanwolf> ompaul: ok
[11:42] <darius_> or should have been
[11:42] <fissy> ikken, you could try running XGL if it's general window management that is slow
[11:42] <Kyral_FreeBSD> darius_: FreeBSD was around LONG before Gentoo
[11:42] <ikken> fissy: what's xgl?
[11:42] <Seveas> Kyral_FreeBSD, will you ever stop being off-topic or do I have to kick you?
[11:42] <Kyral_FreeBSD> darius_: read the Portage documentation. "Inspired by Ports"
[11:43] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Seveas: sorry I keep seeming to do this without meaning to
[11:43] <darius_> Kyral_FreeBSD: indeed, I've use FreeBSD/ports for a long time.
[11:43] <ompaul> !offtopic
[11:43] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[11:43] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I know...
[11:43] <ompaul> we have a channel for that
[11:43] <Kassah> Also, is there a way to wrap a single program to make it think there is only 1 screen when there really are two with Xinerama?
[11:44] <fissy> ikken: xgl is a way of getting the graphics card of your computer to draw the desktop instead of using your processor. It makes things a lot faster because you're using the power of your 3d graphics card, but it's quite complicated to set up
[11:44] <Kyral_FreeBSD> also buggy
[11:44] <ompaul> darius_, Kyral_FreeBSD please take the conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic that is what that channel is for
[11:44] <Kassah> for instance... bzFlag... uses both screens... and I'd much rather have it use 1...
[11:44] <Kyral_FreeBSD> oy oy I did lol
[11:44] <ikken> fissy: well, I have a very bad graphics card, one of those "Intel Integrated" ones, do you think there would be any benefit?
[11:45] <ikken> fissy: I know it supports OpenGL and all that jazz, though
[11:45] <mumbles-laptop> how do i backup grub ?
[11:45] <jessid> good bye!
[11:45] <geeksauce> should i replace gdm.conf ?
[11:45] <anzio_> how do I uninstall, like I want to uninstall hcfpcimodem
[11:45] <mumbles-laptop> i need to do a reinstall and the last time i did that i dident back it up and had to reinstall
[11:45] <Kyral_FreeBSD> anzio_: sudo apt-get remove --purge foo
[11:46] <anzio_> thanks
[11:46] <anzio_> foo
[11:46] <fissy> ikken, it would probably be up to the job but it is hard to configure. You said you could get everything running in fluxbox and it was noticably faster. Is there a reason you couldn't keep using fluxbox as that would be easier?
[11:46] <Kyral_FreeBSD> anzio_: foo == Generic Placeholder used in MANY Unix things :P
[11:46] <madewokherd> geeksauce: I don't know, but if something happens to grub, you should be able to recover with a livecd
[11:46] <anzio_> oh lol
[11:46] <rhyddin> hey all .. anyone here tried Hydrogen drum kit?
[11:46] <Kyral_FreeBSD> see also, bar :P
[11:46] <ikken> fissy: well, I think I can deal with it - would upgrading my 512MB RAM to 2GB help at all?
[11:47] <fissy> ikken... maybe if you're running out of ram now
[11:47] <nanotube> Seveas, well, i aptitude-installed bzr, and am playing with it. so far, works like a charm. :)  so thanks!
[11:47] <geeksauce> which i don't feel like wainting another hour to download when the upgrade is almost done
[11:47] <rhyddin> ok, another q - does anyone know how to change the default sound server from esd to jack?
[11:47] <madewokherd> geeksauce: get the gentoo livecd
[11:47] <madewokherd> that one's small
[11:48] <ikken> fissy: I'm looking into this Xgl thing, is there a terminal command to see what graphics card I have? I probably shouldn't be even bothering with this, but I'm going to try it anyway. :)
[11:48] !lilo:*! Tor hidden service upgrade in process
[11:48] <Seveas> ikken, lspci
[11:48] <nanotube> geeksauce, as long as you haven't made any funky changes to your gdm.conf, might as well replace it. if you have, make backup first. (unless the upgrade process makes a backup automatically, which would be the smart thing to do)
[11:48] <delire> ikken: lspci | grep VGA
[11:48] <ikken> cool, thanks Seveas
[11:48] <warpzone> hey guys, has anybody had problems with Rhythmbox since upgrading from 5.05?
[11:49] <damg> what could the problem that i cannot go into suspend via the battery manager anymore (I changed nothing) while calling /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh with su rights works flawlessly?
[11:49] <Kyral_FreeBSD> 5.05?
[11:49] <Kyral_FreeBSD> we had a 5.05?
[11:49] <ompaul> no we did not
[11:49] <warpzone> um, whatever Badger was :-P
[11:49] <Kyral_FreeBSD> I know, I'm being a smartass :P
[11:49] <shocktrooper1> I replaced a second copy of ubuntu on my hd1 with windows.  I reinstalled the hd0 containing kubuntu.  How do I update my grub?
[11:49] <ompaul> warpzone,  5.10
[11:49] <ikken> 5.10
[11:49] <warpzone> lol thanks
[11:49] <damg> the battery manager says that HAL couldnt execute the command
[11:50] <ompaul> Kyral_FreeBSD, 5.04 and 5.10 people will be mixed up :-/
[11:50] <geeksauce> i haven't that i can rememeber
[11:50] <warpzone> Im constantly mixed up
[11:50] <judah> shocktrooper1: update-grub
[11:50] <Set> how can I check what version of ipw I have installed?
[11:50] <amarokker> Can someone please help me with vsftpd? Someone tried accessing it and got 'server too busy' msg.
[11:50] <megaman123> i just re-installed 5.10 .. what do i need to use 'make' .. which package ?
[11:50] <geeksauce> madewokherd, is the gentoo live cd in the gento CVS?
[11:50] <amarokker> Is it something to do with configuration?
[11:50] <Kyral_FreeBSD> !compile
[11:50] <ubotu> A nice howto about compiling software from source code can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (but remember to search !apt first, after adding all the !repos)
[11:50] <shocktrooper1> judah, I did that.  it still reads ubuntu
[11:50] <lime4x4> is anyone else having trouble updating there resource lists? I keep getting Sub-process bzip2 returned error code 2
[11:50] <megaman123> !make
[11:50] <ubotu> megaman123: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:51] <ompaul> !buildessential
[11:51] <ubotu> ompaul: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> amarokker: without looking at the logfiles I don't know
[11:51] <OrganStoff> strange question: where is the <Super> key? i'm on german QWERTZ
[11:51] <judah> shocktrooper1: investigate the file /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:51] <nanotube> megaman123, just install package "build-essential". that will have make, and gcc, and a bunch of other build stuff
[11:51] <ompaul> !build-essential
[11:51] <ubotu> build-essential is probably a meta package for software building see !gcc for more info
[11:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> OrganStoff: it usaully means the "Windows" key
[11:51] <shocktrooper1> judah, did that too. :D
[11:51] <megaman123> nanotube: thanks :)
[11:51] <Kyral_FreeBSD> OrganStoff: at least on American QWERTY
[11:52] <warpzone> Rhythmbox can't read any media I've tried so far. Keeps saying "not a valid stream"
[11:52] <[Jonne] > there's something odd with the UI elements that control volume: if i drag the slider up, it goes down, and the whole thing is flipped
[11:52] <arnau1> Hello
[11:52] <nanotube> megaman123, no prob :) that's probably one of the most asked questions about ubuntu. for some reason unknown to anyone i asked, ubuntu doesn't include the dev-tools in the default install. so everyone always asks "hey, why can't i build source packages" :)
[11:52] <tristanmike> !tell warpzone about restricted
[11:52] <amarokker> Kyral_FreeBSD: I'll be happy to show them to you- in a min.
[11:52] <fissy> are you looking at the screen upside down Jonne?
[11:52] <nanotube> fissy, haha
[11:53] <judah> nanotube: because supported packages are already in binary format.
[11:53] <[Jonne] > no
[11:53] <tristanmike> warpzone: you probably need to install the proper codecs to play the stream, take a look at the guide ubotu pointed you too in the pm :)
[11:53] <amarokker> Kyral_FreeBSD: Before we do that, are there any logging directives that needs to be enabled in the conf file?
[11:53] <Kyral_FreeBSD> nanotube: the official position (when I asked) was basically, "Your grandmother doesn't need GCC"
[11:53] <fissy> :(
[11:53] <madewokherd> geeksauce: ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/releases/x86/current/installcd
[11:53] <judah> nanotube: in theory default users would have no reason to build software.
[11:53] <larsson_> how importand is dirmngr for my system?
[11:53] <Kyral_FreeBSD> amarokker: no idea, never used it
[11:53] <warpzone> tristanmike: will do, thanks man
[11:53] <fissy> Jonne, that's a very weird bug. Have you tried searching for it in the ubuntu bugs database?
[11:53] <gavagai> anyone have experience using ubuntu as a voicemail system?  what software is easy?
[11:53] <amarokker> gack! Am I the only one then :D
[11:53] <arnau1> I really need special help with samba : I can see windows computer on my network and I can do what I want with the files... But windows computer can see my samba serveur but don't have permission to access...
[11:53] <arnau1> Can anyone help me please?
[11:53] <nanotube> judah, that's really a bad excuse. especially since as time gets further from release time, default packages get older, and there is more need to install new versions from outside the repos. at least its a bad excuse in my opinion
[11:54] <[Jonne] > i'm using google, but i'm at a loss what exactly to look for
[11:54] <[Jonne] > which keywords
[11:54] <PS> hi, anyone: why am i getting "checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.6.0... no" when trying to compile mail-notification (sorry if this is a dumb-ass q!)
[11:54] <Keps> arnau1; did you make a user acount with samba?
[11:54] <larsson_> how important is dirmngr for my system? what does it do?
[11:54] <arnau1> I did
[11:54] <Kyral_FreeBSD> nanotube: rumblings on the -Devel ML are pushing it to be in Edgy by default
[11:54] <nanotube> Kyral_FreeBSD, heh yea, that's a pretty poorly supported position. after all, your grandmother doesn't need "ls" either :)
[11:54] <arnau1> it is mine
[11:54] <nanotube> Kyral_FreeBSD, woot! yea, that's cool :)
[11:54] <funkja> My email requires Kerberos authentication... how do I install Kerberos?
[11:54] <arnau1> arnaud!
[11:54] <amarokker> Kyral_FreeBSD: tried proftpd too- but i cant figure out why it wouldnt work- and when I checked I couldnt find any firewalls installed either...ftp does work on local host though
[11:54] <Kyral_FreeBSD> nanotube: Nautilus prolly calls ls :P
[11:54] <judah> nanotube: it's actually a very valid reason. i'm sure ubuntu as a company, redhat, suse and the like.. will only want to officially support their own built binary packages..
[11:55] <judah> nanotube: you take things into your own hands when building software. so you should know that you'll need those extra tools.
[11:55] <nanotube> Kyral_FreeBSD, hehe well yea, but you know what i mean :)
[11:55] <Kyral_FreeBSD> judah: Actually...Canonical is the company....(Seveas, ompaul, correct me if I am wrong)
[11:55] <Keps> what does: sudo testparm    tells you about the shared folder?
[11:55] <judah> right canonical
[11:55] <Seveas> Kyral_FreeBSD, you are wrong, but that fact was correct ;)
[11:55] <arnau1> I don't know what's wrong with my samba...
[11:55] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Thanks Seveas
[11:55] <judah> nanotube: there's no reason to ship them installed by default. which is why they don't. i'm sure there have been many debates over the subject.
[11:55] <fissy> [Jonne] : https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/41999
[11:56] <gavagai> amarokker, was proftpd running and not working? like did you verify that the service was running
[11:56] <mirak> why a basic user couldn't install software that don't require root privileges ?
[11:56] <Keps> arnau1: what does: sudo testparm    tells you about the shared folder?
[11:56] <gavagai> i have proftpd working
[11:56] <nanotube> judah, yea, but the problem is, even experienced linux users get nonplussed when they try to build stuff and notice no build tools. grandma would just ignore the presence of gcc, and not use it. so what's the problem
[11:56] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: compile with "--prefix=$HOME"
[11:56] <judah> nanotube: now that's a bad excuse..
[11:56] <warpzone> Tristanmike: worked like a charm! thanks a bunch man!
[11:56] <bulltitan> i have a problem with firefox, i'm trying to enter a website wich doesn't support encription
[11:56] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: that SHOULD compile into your home directory
[11:56] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: I am talking about apt
[11:56] <fissy> [Jonne] : let me know if that fixes it
[11:56] <mirak> Kyral: in /
[11:57] <judah> build-essential has been here since the dawn fo time.

[11:57] <nanotube> judah, heh, well, it's bad excuses all around, then, isn't it. :)

[11:57] <amarokker> gavagai: if you can test it for me, I'll be more than glad to apt-get it once more and go check it again. wait a bit...am on it right nnow
[11:57] <Seveas> mirak, apt has options to install in /home
[11:57] <chavo> nanotube, If your an experienced unix user then you're smart enought o find out how to get the dev packages
[11:57] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: welcome to Unix security 101
[11:57] <judah> nanotube: ;)
[11:57] <Seveas> (or wherever you want)
[11:57] <bulltitan> is there a way to disable it so i can get in that website?
[11:57] <Keps> arnau1: press enter after he gives you that to see the dump
[11:57] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: yes but if you only allow authenticated packages
[11:57] <gavagai> amarokker, and if you are behind a router you need to configure the router
[11:57] <nanotube> judah, you know, i personally don't have any problem with build essential. when i first wanted to build from source on ubuntu, i was like "wtf" and went and searched the wiki/forums, and found build-essential.
[11:58] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: the install can still be suid anyway
[11:58] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: doesn't matter. We won't break the tried and true method. It works, it works fine. And its secure
[11:58] <judah> nanotube: you'd not used debian in the past them i guess. ;)
[11:58] <larsson_> how important is dirmngr for my system?
[11:58] <nanotube> judah, my problem is basically that this question is one of the most frequently asked on the ubuntu forums. so, if people keep having to ask, clearly there is something wrong with there not being gcc and make by default
[11:58] <Mastus> Hey, anyone got the fglrx packages installed in Dapper?
[11:58] <nanotube> judah, yea i came from freebsd :)
[11:58] <Kyral_FreeBSD> Google Earth for Linux installs into $HOME if you are that careful
[11:58] <fissy> Mastus: yes
[11:58] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: then why not provide a USER repository with precompiled package that apt would  install in ~/ ?
[11:59] <bulltitan> is there any security settings i should be looking for to disable and surf websites without encription?
[11:59] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: 1) $HOME isn't in the PATH
[11:59] <MetaMorfoziS> which app can convert my mpg to mp3?
[11:59] <Mastus> fissy: Do you have the fglrx-control package?
[11:59] <judah> nanotube: and again i think that's the wrong assumption.. but everyone has their own opinnions in this line of vi/emacs/blue/green world..
[11:59] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: so what ? only a user need it in the $PATH
[11:59] <Seveas> MetaMorfoziS, mencoder
[11:59] <amarokker> gavagai: http://rafb.net/paste/results/Tijcqa22.html
[11:59] <Kyral_FreeBSD> mirak: but the other system programs won't have it
[11:59] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: $PATH/fakeroot/
[11:59] <fissy> Mastus: i've got it installed, but i never use it
[11:59] <judah> nanotube: do you really want gcc installed on a production enterprise server running critial apps that are very specific.
[12:00] <tylerofl> could someone please suggest a good way to pinpoint a complete os crash?
[12:00] <mirak> Kyral_FreeBSD: /home/$USER/fakeroot/
